Luka 13
1 Katema kakoko ŵaiche ŵandu ŵampepe ni ŵaasalile Che Yesu ngani sya ŵandu ŵa ku Galilaya ŵaŵaulegwe ni che Pilato paŵaliji nkusikita inyama yao ya mbopesi ni miasi jao jawanganyiche ni mbopesi jao.
Now there were some present at that very season which told him of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.
2 Che Yesu ŵajanjile kuti, “Pakuŵa Ŵagalilaya ŵala ŵaulajikwe kwanti yele, nkuganisya ŵaliji ŵakuleŵa kwapunda Ŵagalilaya ŵane wose?
And he answered and said unto them, Think ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they have suffered these things?
3 Isyene ngunsalila kuti ngaŵa yele, nambo iŵaga nganneka sambi syenu ŵanyamwe nombe chinjonasiche.
I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all in like manner perish.
4 Iyoyo peyo ana nkuganichisya kuti ŵandu kumi na nane ŵala, ŵaŵagwililwe ni nyuumba jeleu ku Siloamu kula ni kuwa ŵaliji ŵakuleŵa kupunda ŵane wose ŵakutama ku Yelusalemu?
Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and killed them, think ye that they were offenders above all the men that dwell in Jerusalem?
5 Ngunsalila kuti ngaŵa, nambo ŵanyamwe nombe iŵaga nganneka sambi syenu, ŵanyamwe nombe chinjonasiche.”
I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
6 Nipele, Che Yesu ŵatanjile chitagu chi, “Paliji ni mundu jumpepe juŵaliji ni chitela chachikuŵilanjikwa cha ntini chichapandikwe mu ngunda wa Misabibu. Mundu jo ŵajawile kukusosa isogosi yakwe nambo nganachisimana chindu.
And he spake this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came seeking fruit thereon, and found none.
7 Nipele, mundu jo ŵansalile jwakuugosa ngunda wo kuti, ‘Mpilikane! Une iicheje yaka itatu yi kukusosa isogosi ya chitela cha ntini chi, nambo nachisimene changasogola. Nchigwisye! Pakuŵa chikumala chajila pangali chindu?’
And he said unto the vinedresser, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why doth it also cumber the ground?
8 Nambo ŵelewo ŵajanjile kuti, ‘Ambuje, tuchileche kaje namyaka chingachisyunguchisye lisimbo ni kutaga chajila.
And he answering saith unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it:
9 Iŵaga chichisogole isogosi chaka chachikwika chi, yambone, nambo iŵaga ngachisogola chinchigwisye.’”
and if it bear fruit thenceforth, [well]; but if not, thou shalt cut it down.
10 Pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila limo, Che Yesu ŵaliji nkwiganya mu nyuumba ja kupopelela.
And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath day.
11 Ni sooni paliji ni jwankongwe jwakulwala papopo pepo juŵakamwilwe ni lisoka kwa yaka likumi ni nsano ni itatu. Ngongo wakwe wapindiche ni nganakombolaga kulijongola uchenene ng'oo.
And behold, a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years; and she was bowed together, and could in no wise lift herself up.
12 Che Yesu paŵambweni jwankongwe jo ŵambilasile ni ŵansalile, “Jwankongwe, nlecheleswe, ulwele wenu ulamile!”
And when Jesus saw her, he called her, and said to her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.
13 Ŵansajichile makono gao ni papopo ŵajongweche ni kutanda kwakusya Akunnungu.
And he laid his hands upon her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.
14 Nambo jwankulungwa jwa nyuumba jakupopelela ŵatumbile ligongo Che Yesu ŵannamisye jwankongwe jo pa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila, nipele ŵausalile mpingo wa ŵandu ula kuti, “Gapali moŵa nsano ni limo gakwaŵajila ŵandu kupanganya masengo. Kwa gele moŵa njise kukulamwa ilwele yenu nambo ngaŵa Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila!”
And the ruler of the synagogue, being moved with indignation because Jesus had healed on the sabbath, answered and said to the multitude, There are six days in which men ought to work: in them therefore come and be healed, and not on the day of the sabbath.
15 Pelepo Ambuje ŵajanjile, “Ŵaulamba ŵanyamwe! Ana ŵaani pasikati jenu jwangakujiugulila ng'ombe jakwe pane mbunda jakwe mulichinga ni kujilongosya kukung'wa meesi atamuno lili Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila?
But the Lord answered him, and said, Ye hypocrites, doth not each one of you on the sabbath loose his ox or his ass from the stall, and lead him away to watering?
16 Sambano, jwankongwe ju, uŵelesi u che Iblahimu, juŵataŵikwe ni Shetani kwa yaka likumi ni nsano ni itatu. Ana ngaikusachilwa kunnamya jwankongwe ju namuno lili Lyuŵa lya Kupumulila?”
And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan had bound, lo, [these] eighteen years, to have been loosed from this bond on the day of the sabbath?
17 Paŵamasile kuŵecheta gelego, ŵamakani ŵao wose yatesile soni nambo ŵandu ŵane wose ŵasengwile kwaligongo lya indu yose yakusimosya iŵaipangenye.
And as he said these things, all his adversaries were put to shame: and all the multitude rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.
18 Nipele Che Yesu ŵausisye kuti, “Ana Umwenye wa Akunnungu ukulandana ni chichi? Chinaulandanye ni chichi?
He said therefore, Unto what is the kingdom of God like? and whereunto shall I liken it?
19 Ukulandana ni mbeju jamwana ja chitela chachikuŵilanjikwa haladali jiŵajigele mundu jumo ni kujipanda mungunda mwakwe. Jamesile ni chaliji chitela chachikulungwa ni ijuni yataŵile isusi mu nyambi syakwe.”
It is like unto a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and cast into his own garden; and it grew, and became a tree; and the birds of the heaven lodged in the branches thereof.
20 Che Yesu ŵausisye sooni, “Ana Umwenye wa Akunnungu chinaulandanye ni chichi?
And again he said, Whereunto shall I liken the kingdom of God?
21 Ukulandana ni chilungo chiŵachijigele jwankongwe jumo ni kuwanganya pamo ni utandi wejinji, nipele utandi wose waumwiche.”
It is like unto leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till it was all leavened.
22 Che Yesu ŵajendelechele ni ulendo wao wa ku Yelusalemu akuno achajiganyaga ŵandu mmisi ni mmisinda.
And he went on his way through cities and villages, teaching, and journeying on unto Jerusalem.
23 Mundu jumo ŵambusisye Che Yesu kuti, “Ana Ambuje, nganatupa ŵandu ŵachakulupuswe?” Che Yesu ŵajanjile kuti,
And one said unto him, Lord, are they few that be saved? And he said unto them,
24 “Nlimbile kwinjila kwa kupitila nnango wakunyilila pakuŵa ngunsalila kuti, ŵajinji chalinje kwinjila mwelemo, nambo chalepele.
Strive to enter in by the narrow door: for many, I say unto you, shall seek to enter in, and shall not be able.
25 Chikaiche katema ka nsyene nyuumba pachajimuche ni kuugala nnango. Ŵanyamwe chinjime pasa ni kutanda kupoposya nchitiji, ‘Ambuje, ntuugulile nnango.’ Nambo ŵelewo chachijanga kuti, ‘Ngangummanyilila namose ngangukumanyilila kuntyochele.’
When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, open to us; and he shall answer and say to you, I know you not whence ye are;
26 Pelepo chintande kwasalila, ‘Uwe ni ŵeŵala utwalile ni kung'wa pampepe nomwe, nomwe mwajiganyisye mmisi jetu.’
then shall ye begin to say, We did eat and drink in thy presence, and thou didst teach in our streets;
27 Nambo ŵelewo chaachiti, ‘Ngangummanyilila namose kuntyochele, ntyoche mmbujo mwangu ŵanyamwe wose ŵankupanganya yaigongomalo.’
and he shall say, I tell you, I know not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.
28 Nipele kweleko chikupagwe ni kulila ni kuchilimya meeno, pachinchawona che Iblahimu ni che Isaka ni che Yakobo ni ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu wose ali mu Umwenye wa Akunnungu nambo mwachinsyene nkanikwe kwinjila.
There shall be the weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and yourselves cast forth without.
29 Ŵandu chaiche kutyochela mumbali mose mwa chilambo ni kutama kulya mu Umwenye wa Akunnungu.
And they shall come from the east and west, and from the north and south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God.
30 Elo, kwana ŵane ŵaali ŵambesi chaaŵe ŵandanda ni ŵane ŵaali ŵandanda chaaŵe ŵambesi.”
And behold, there are last which shall be first, and there are first which shall be last.
31 Katema kakoko Mafalisayo ŵampepe ŵajaulile Che Yesu ni ŵaasalile kuti, “Ntyoche pelepa njaule kwine, pakuŵa mwenye che Helode akusaka kumbulaga.”
In that very hour there came certain Pharisees, saying to him, Get thee out, and go hence: for Herod would fain kill thee.
32 Che Yesu ŵajanjile, “Njaule nkalisalile lyele licheto kuti, ‘Nnole, lelo ni malaŵi ngugakoposya masoka ni kwalamya ŵakulwala ni ntondo chimalichisye masengo gangu.’
And he said unto them, Go and say to that fox, Behold, I cast out devils and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third [day] I am perfected.
33 Nambo ikuumajila kwaula ulendo wangu lelo ni malaŵi ni ntondo, pakuŵa ngaikomboleka kuti jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu aulajikwe kwine ikaŵe ku Yelusalemu.
Howbeit I must go on my way today and tomorrow and the [day] following: for it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem.
34 “Ugwe Yelusalemu! Yelusalemu! Nkwaulaga ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ni kwaputa maganga ŵaŵatumikwe kukwenu ŵala. Ana kalingwa nasachile kwakumbikanya ŵanache ŵenu pamo, mpela nguku ijikuti pakwautamila ŵanache ŵakwe nambo mwanya nganinsaka.
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killeth the prophets, and stoneth them that are sent unto her! how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen [gathereth] her own brood under her wings, and ye would not!
35 Nnole! Mwanya chachinnechela musi wenu. Nipele ngunsalila kuti ngamumona une mpaka kele katema pachinchiti, ‘Akole upile ŵelewo ŵakwika mu liina lya Ambuje.’”
Behold, your house is left unto you [desolate]: and I say unto you, Ye shall not see me, until ye shall say, Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
