Lukka 17
1 Awo Yesu n’agamba abayigirizwa be nti, “Ebikemo ebireetera abantu okwonoona tebiyinza butajja, naye zimusanze omuntu oyo abireeta.
Then He said to the disciples: “Things that cause people to fall are bound to come, but woe to him through whom they do come!
2 Ekyandisinze kwe kusiba olubengo mu bulago bwe n’asuulibwa mu nnyanja okusinga okwesittaza omu ku baana bano abato.
It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should cause one of these little ones to fall.
3 Mwekuume. “Muganda wo bw’ayonoonanga, omunenyanga; era singa yeenenya omusonyiwanga.
Watch out for yourselves: if your brother sins against you, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.
4 Ne bw’akusobyanga emirundi omusanvu mu lunaku olumu, naye buli mulundi n’ajja gy’oli n’akwenenyeza, musonyiwenga.”
Even if he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times in that day returns, saying, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.”
5 Awo abatume ne bagamba Mukama waffe nti, “Twongereko okukkiriza.”
The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith.”
6 Mukama waffe n’abagamba nti, “Singa okukkiriza kwammwe kuba ng’akaweke ka kaladaali, mwandigambye omukenene guno nti, ‘Siguka ogwe mu nnyanja,’ era ne gubagondera.
So the Lord said: “If you had faith like a mustard seed has, you could say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted, and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.
7 “Naye ani ku mmwe, ng’omuddu we yaakakomawo okuva okulima oba okulunda endiga, amugamba nti, ‘Jjangu mangu otuule ku mmere?’
“And which of you, having a slave plowing or tending sheep, will say to him when he comes in from the field, ‘Come at once and recline to eat’?
8 Tamugamba nti, ‘Teekateeka emmere yange, weerongoose olabike bulungi, olyoke ompeereze nga ndya era nga nnywa, bwe nnaamala naawe n’onywa era n’olya emmere yo?’
Will he not rather say to him, ‘Prepare something for me to eat, and gird yourself and serve me until I eat and drink, and afterward you will eat and drink’?
9 Mulowooza nti Mukama w’omuweereza oyo amwebaza olw’okugondera bye yalagirwa okukola?
Does he thank that slave because he did the things commanded? I guess not!
10 Nammwe bwe mutyo bwe mumalanga okutuukiriza ebyo ebyabagambibwa okukola, mugambenga nti, ‘Ffe abaddu bo abatasaanira tukoze omulimu gwaffe ogutugwanidde.’”
So likewise you, whenever you have done everything you were told to do, say, ‘We are unworthy slaves, because we have only done what we were supposed to.’”
11 Awo Yesu bwe yali yeeyongerayo mu lugendo lwe ng’agenda e Yerusaalemi, n’akwata ekkubo eriyita wakati wa Ggaliraaya ne Samaliya.
Now as He was traveling toward Jerusalem, He went along between Samaria and Galilee.
12 Awo bwe yayingira mu kabuga akamu, abasajja kkumi nga bonna bagenge ne bajja okumusisinkana. Ne bayimirira walako
And as He entered a certain village, ten men met Him—being lepers they stood at a distance.
13 ne bakoowoola mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka nti, “Yesu, Mukama waffe, tukwatirwe ekisa!”
They called out, saying, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”
14 Yesu bwe yabalaba n’abagamba nti, “Mugende mweyanjule eri bakabona.” Bwe baali nga bagenda ne bawona ne baba balongoofu.
And paying attention He said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” It happened that as they went they were cleansed!
15 Omu ku bo bwe yalaba ng’awonye n’akomawo eri Yesu nga bw’aleekaanira waggulu ng’atendereza Katonda.
Well one of them, when he saw that he was healed, returned, glorifying God with a loud voice;
16 N’agwa wansi ku bigere bya Yesu ng’amwebaza. Omusajja oyo yali Musamaliya.
then he fell on his face at His feet, thanking Him—and he was a Samaritan!
17 Yesu n’agamba nti, “Ekkumi bonna tebaawonyezebbwa? Omwenda bo baluwa?
So Jesus reacted by saying: “Were not all ten cleansed? So where are the nine?
18 Tebayinzizza kudda kutendereza Katonda wabula munnaggwanga ono yekka y’akomyewo?”
None were found to return and give glory to God except this foreigner!”
19 Awo Yesu n’amugamba nti, “Situka weetambulire, okukkiriza kwo kukuwonyezza.”
Then He said to him, “Get up and go; your faith has made you well.”
20 Awo Abafalisaayo ne babuuza Yesu nti, “Obwakabaka bwa Katonda bulijja ddi?” Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Obwakabaka bwa Katonda tebulabika nga bujja,
Now when He was asked by the Pharisees when the Kingdom of God would come, He answered them and said: “The Kingdom of God does not come with observation;
21 era abantu tebagenda kugamba nti, ‘Laba buubuno wano,’ oba nti, ‘Buubuli wali,’ kubanga obwakabaka bwa Katonda buli mu mmwe.”
nor will they say, ‘Look, here!’ or ‘Look, there!’ because indeed the Kingdom of God is within you.”
22 Oluvannyuma n’agamba abayigirizwa be nti, “Ekiseera kijja lwe mulyegomba okulaba olumu, ku nnaku z’Omwana w’Omuntu, naye temulirulaba.
Then He said to the disciples: “Days are coming when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of the Man, and you will not see it.
23 Balibagamba nti lwe luno era nti lwe luli temugendanga era temubagobereranga.
And they will say to you, ‘Look, here!’ or ‘Look, there!’ Do not go along or follow.
24 Kubanga ng’eggulu bwe limyansiza ku ludda olumu olw’eggulu ate ne limyansiza ku ludda olulala olw’eggulu, bw’atyo bw’aliba Omwana w’Omuntu ku lunaku lwe,
Because just like the lightning that lights the whole sky when it flashes, so also will the Son of the Man be in His day.
25 Naye okusooka kimugwanira okubonaabona mu bintu bingi, n’okugaanibwa, abantu ab’omulembe guno.
But first He must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.
26 “Nga bwe kyali mu biseera bya Nuuwa, era bwe kityo bwe kiriba ne mu biseera by’Omwana w’Omuntu.
Also, just as it was in the days of Noah, so will it also be in the days of the Son of the Man.
27 Abantu baali balya nga banywa nga bawasa era nga bafumbirwa okutuusa ku lunaku Nuuwa lwe yayingira mu lyato. Olwo amataba ne gajja ne gasaanyaawo buli kintu.
They were eating, drinking, marrying and being given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.
28 “Era kiriba nga bwe kyali mu nnaku za Lutti. Abantu baali balya nga banywa, nga bagula era nga batunda, nga balima era nga bazimba amayumba,
Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they were eating, drinking, buying, selling, planting, building—
29 okutuusa ku lunaku Lutti lwe yava mu Sodomu. Olwo omuliro n’olunyata ne biyiika okuva mu ggulu ne bizikiriza buli kimu.
but on the day Lot went out from Sodom, fire and brimstone rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.
30 “Bwe bityo bwe biriba ku lunaku, Omwana w’Omuntu lw’alirabikirako.
Even so will it be in the day when the Son of the Man is revealed.
31 Ku lunaku olwo omuntu yenna aliba waggulu ku nju, takkanga mu nju munda kuggyamu bintu bye. N’abo abaliba mu nnimiro tebaddangayo eka okubaako ne bye banonayo.
“In that day, he who is on the housetop, and his goods in the house, let him not go down to get them; and likewise he who is in the field, let him not turn back.
32 Mujjukire mukazi wa Lutti!
Remember Lot's wife!
33 Buli anoonya okuwonya obulamu bwe alibufiirwa, naye buli eyeefiiriza obulamu bwe alibuwonya.
Whoever seeks to save his life will lose it, and whoever ‘wastes’ it will preserve it.
34 Mbagamba nti ku lunaku olwo abantu babiri baliba ku kitanda kimu, Omu alitwalibwa naye munne n’alekebwa.
I tell you: on that night there will be two men in one bed; one will be taken and the other left.
35 Abantu babiri baliba basa ku lubengo, omu alitwalibwa naye munne alirekebwa.
Two women will be grinding together; one will be taken and the other left.”
36 Abasajja babiri baliba mu nnimiro, omu alitwalibwa naye munne alirekebwa.”
37 Awo abayigirizwa be ne bamubuuza nti, “Mukama waffe, nga batwalibwa wa?” Yesu n’abaddamu nti, “Awaba ekifudde awo ensegawe zirikuŋŋaanira!”
They reacted by saying to Him, “Where, Lord?” He said to them, “Where there is a carcass, there will the vultures also be gathered.”
