Luka 4
1 Yesu, wodzazidwa ndi Mzimu Woyera, anachoka ku mtsinje wa Yorodani ndipo anatsogozedwa ndi Mzimu Woyerayo kupita ku chipululu,
Now Jesus being full of the holy Spirit, returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, being forty days tempted by the devil;
2 kumene anayesedwa ndi mdierekezi masiku makumi anayi. Sanadye kena kalikonse pa masiku amenewo, ndipo pa mapeto pake anamva njala.
and He did eat nothing in all those days: and when they were ended, at last He was hungry.
3 Mdierekezi anati kwa Iye, “Ngati ndiwe Mwana wa Mulungu, uza mwala uwu kuti usanduke buledi.”
And the devil said to Him, If thou art the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.
4 Yesu anayankha kuti, “Zalembedwa: ‘Munthu sadzakhala ndi moyo ndi chakudya chokha.’”
And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, that man shall not live by bread only, but on every word of God.
5 Mdierekezi anamutengera Iye pamalo aatali ndipo mʼkamphindi namuonetsa maufumu onse a dziko lapansi.
And the devil taking Him up into an high mountain, shewed Him all the kingdoms of the world in an instant,
6 Ndipo anati kwa Iye, “Ndidzakupatsani ulamuliro ndi ulemerero wawo; pakuti anandipatsa ine, ndipo ndingathe kupereka kwa aliyense amene ndikufuna.
and said to Him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for it is committed to me, and I give it to whomsoever I will.
7 Ngati mutandilambira, zonsezi zidzakhala zanu.”
Therefore, if thou wilt but worship me, they all shall be thine.
8 Yesu anayankha kuti, “Zalembedwa: ‘Pembedza Yehova Mulungu wako ndi kumutumikira Iye yekha.’”
And Jesus answering him said with indignation, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt thou serve.
9 Mdierekezi anapita naye ku Yerusalemu namuyimiritsa pamwamba penipeni pa Nyumba ya Mulungu. Ndipo anati, “Ngati ndinu Mwana wa Mulungu dziponyeni nokha pansi kuchokera pano.
And he brought Him to Jerusalem, and set him on a battlement of the temple, and said to Him, If thou art the Son of God, cast thyself down from hence;
10 Pakuti kwalembedwa, “Adzalamulira angelo ake za iwe kuti akutchinjirize mosamala;
for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee,
11 ndipo adzakunyamula ndi manja awo, kuti phazi lako lisagunde pa mwala.”
to keep thee, and they shall bear thee up in their hands, least thou dash thy foot against a stone.
12 Yesu anayankha kuti, “Mawu akuti, ‘Musamuyese Yehova Mulungu wanu.’”
And Jesus answered him, it is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
13 Mdierekezi atamaliza mayesero awa onse, anamusiya Iye kufikira atapeza mpata wina.
And when the devil had ended all the temptation, he departed from Him for a time.
14 Yesu anabwerera ku Galileya mu mphamvu ya Mzimu Woyera, ndipo mbiri yake inafalikira ku madera onse a ku midzi.
And Jesus returned by the influence of the Spirit into Galilee: and a fame was spread through all the country round about concerning Him:
15 Iye ankaphunzitsa mʼmasunagoge awo, ndipo aliyense ankamulemekeza.
and He taught in their synagogues with universal applause.
16 Iye anapita ku Nazareti, kumene anakulira, ndipo pa tsiku la Sabata anakalowa mʼsunagoge, monga mwa chikhalidwe chake. Ndipo anayimirira kuti awerenge malemba.
And He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up: and according to his custom He went into the synagogue on the sabbath-day, and stood up to read.
17 Anamupatsa buku la mneneri Yesaya. Atalitsekula, anapeza pamalo pamene panalembedwa kuti,
And there was delivered to Him the book of the prophet Esaias; and opening the book, He found the place where it was written,
18 “Mzimu wa Ambuye ali pa Ine; chifukwa wandidzoza kuti ndilalikire Uthenga Wabwino kwa osauka. Wandituma kuti ndilalikire kwa a mʼndende kuti amasulidwe ndi kwa osaona kuti apenyenso, kumasulidwa kwa osautsidwa,
"The spirit of the Lord is upon me to the end, for which He hath anointed me: He hath sent me to publish good tidings to the poor, to heal the broken-hearted, to proclaim deliverance to the captives, and recovery of sight to the blind, to release them that are bruised,
19 ndi kulalikira za nthawi imene Ambuye adzakomere mtima anthu awo.”
and to preach the acceptable year of the Lord."
20 Kenaka Iye anatseka bukulo, nalibwezera kwa wotumikira ndipo anakakhala pansi. Maso a aliyense mʼsunagogemo anali pa Iye,
And He folded up the book, and gave it again to the minister, and sat down: and the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed upon Him.
21 ndipo anawawuza kuti, “Lero malemba awa akwaniritsidwa mmene mwamveramu.”
And He said unto them, this day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.
22 Onse anayankhula zabwino za Iye ndipo anadabwa ndi mawu ogwira moyo amene anatuluka mʼkamwa mwake. Iwo anafunsa kuti, “Kodi uyu si mwana wa Yosefe?”
And they all bare witness to Him, and wondered at the gracefulness of the words, which proceeded from his mouth, and said, Is not this the son of Joseph?
23 Yesu anawawuza kuti, “Zoonadi, mudzandiwuza mwambi uwu: Singʼanga, dzichiritse wekha! Chitanso mʼmudzi wa kwanu kuno zimene ife tamva kuti Iwe unazichita ku Kaperenawo.”
And He said unto them, No doubt ye will apply to me this proverb, "Physician, cure thyself, and do here in thy own country what we have heard were done at Capernaum."
24 Iye anapitiriza kuti, “Zoonadi, ndikukuwuzani kuti palibe mneneri amene amavomerezedwa ku mudzi kwawo.
But, said He, indeed I must tell you, that no prophet is well received in his own country.
25 Ine ndikukutsimikizirani kunali amayi ambiri amasiye mu Israeli mʼnthawi ya Eliya, kumwamba kutatsekedwa kwa zaka zitatu ndi theka ndipo kunali njala yayikulu mʼdziko lonselo.
And I assure you, there were many widows in Israel, in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up for three years and six months, and there was a great famine through all the land;
26 Komabe Eliya sanatumidwe kwa mmodzi mwa iwo, koma kwa mkazi wamasiye wa ku Zerefati ku chigawo cha Sidoni.
but Elias was sent to none of those widows, but to a widow-woman at Sarepta in the territory of Sidon.
27 Ndipo kunali akhate ambiri ku Israeli mʼnthawi ya mneneri Elisa, koma panalibe mmodzi mwa iwo anachiritsidwa kupatula Naamani wa ku Siriya.”
There were also many lepers in Israel, in the time of Elisha the prophet, and none of them was cleansed; but Naaman the Syrian was.
28 Anthu onse mʼsunagogemo anapsa mtima atamva izi.
And all the synagogue were filled with rage, when they heard these things,
29 Anayimirira namutulutsira kunja kwa mzindawo, ndipo anamutengera pamwamba pa phiri pamene mzindawo unamangidwapo, ndi cholinga chakuti amuponyere ku phompho.
and they rose up and drove Him out of the city, and dragged Him to the brow of the hill, on which their city was built, in order to throw Him down the precipice.
30 Koma Iye anangoyenda pakati pa gulu la anthulo nachokapo.
But He passed through the midst of them, and went away.
31 Kenaka Iye anapita ku Kaperenawo, mudzi wa ku Galileya, ndipo pa Sabata anayamba kuphunzitsa anthu.
And He came down to Capernaum a city of Galilee, and taught them on the sabbath-days,
32 Iwo anadabwa ndi chiphunzitso chake chifukwa uthenga wake unali ndi ulamuliro.
and they were astonished at his doctrine; for He spake with authority.
33 Mʼsunagogemo munali munthu wogwidwa ndi mzimu woyipa. Iye analira ndi mawu akulu, akuti
And there was a man in the synagogue possessed by the spirit of an impure demon, and he cried out with a loud voice,
34 “Aa! Kodi mukufuna chiyani kwa ife, Yesu wa ku Nazareti? Kodi mwabwera kudzatiwononga? Ndikudziwa kuti ndinu ndani, ndinu Woyerayo wa Mulungu!”
saying, Let us alone, what hast thou to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know who thou art, the holy one of God:
35 Yesu anachidzudzula kwambiri nati, “Khala chete! Tuluka mwa iye.” Chiwandacho chinamugwetsa munthuyo pansi pamaso pa onse ndipo chinatuluka wosamupweteka.
but Jesus rebuked him, saying, Be silent, and come out of him. And the demon threw him down in the midst of the assembly, and came out of him, having done him no hurt.
36 Anthu onse anadabwa ndipo anati kwa wina ndi mnzake, “Kodi chiphunzitso ichi ndi chotani? Ndi ulamuliro ndi mphamvu Iye akulamulira mizimu yoyipa ndipo ikutuluka!”
And they were all amazed, and said one to another, What a speech is this? for with authority and power He commandeth the impure spirits, and they come out!
37 Ndipo mbiri yake inafalikira madera onse ozungulira.
And his fame spread all over the country round about.
38 Yesu anatuluka mʼsunagoge ndipo anapita kwa Simoni. Tsopano mpongozi wake wa Simoni amadwala malungo akulu, ndipo anamupempha Yesu kuti amuthandize.
And He rose up and went out of the synagogue, and came into the house of Simon: now Simon's wife's mother had a violent fever, and they intreated Him on her behalf.
39 Ndipo anawerama nadzudzula malungowo ndipo anamusiya. Anadzuka nthawi yomweyo nayamba kuwatumikira.
And he stood over her, and rebuked the fever, and it left her: and immediately she arose and waited upon them.
40 Pamene dzuwa linkalowa, anthu anabweretsa kwa Yesu onse amene anali ndi matenda osiyanasiyana, ndipo atasanjika manja ake pa aliyense, anachiritsidwa.
And at sun-set all that had any persons sick of any diseases, brought them to Him: and He laid his hands on every one of them and healed them.
41 Komanso ziwanda zinkatuluka mwa anthu ambiri, zikufuwula kuti, “Inu ndinu Mwana wa Mulungu!” Koma Iye anazidzudzula ndipo sanazilole kuyankhula chifukwa zimadziwa kuti Iye ndi Khristu.
And demons also came out from many, crying out, Thou art the Messiah the Son of God. And He rebuked them, and suffered them not to say, that they knew Him to be the Christ.
42 Kutacha, Yesu anapita ku malo a yekha. Anthu ankamufunafuna Iye ndipo pamene anafika kumene anali, anthuwo anayesetsa kumuletsa kuti asawachokere.
And when the day was coming on, He went out and retired into a solitary place; and the people sought for Him, and came to Him, and would fain have detained Him, that He might not go from them.
43 Koma Iye anati, “Ine ndikuyenera kulalikira Uthenga Wabwino wa ufumu wa Mulungu ku mizinda inanso chifukwa ichi ndi chimene ananditumira.”
But He said unto them, I must preach the kingdom of God to other cities also: for therefore am I sent.
44 Ndipo Iye anapitirirabe kulalikira mʼmasunagoge a ku Yudeya.
So He went on preaching in the synagogues of Galilee.
