< Maliko 8 >

1 Pa moŵa go, mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵandu wasongangene sooni. Pakuŵa nganakolanga chakulya, Che Yesu ŵaaŵilasile ŵakulijiganya ŵao ni kwasalila,
In those days, when there was a large crowd, and they had nothing to eat, he called the talmidim to himself, and said to them,
2 “Ngwakolela chanasa ŵandu ŵa, ligongo atemi none kwa moŵa gatatu ni nganakolanga chakulya.
"I have compassion on the crowd, because they have stayed with me now three days, and have nothing to eat.
3 Naalekaga ajaulangane mmangwao ni sala, komboleka chakomochanje mwitala, pakuŵa ŵampepe mwa ŵanyaŵa atyochele kwakutalika.”
If I send them away fasting to their home, they will faint on the way, and some of them have come a long way."
4 Ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵambusisye, “Patuli pano mwipululu, ana chitupate kwapi chakulya chakomboleka kwalisya ŵandu wose ŵa?”
His talmidim answered him, "From where could one satisfy these people with bread here in a deserted place?"
5 Che Yesu ŵausisye, “Ana nkwete mikate jilingwa?” Ŵanyawo ŵajanjile, “Saba.”
He asked them, "How many loaves do you have?" They said, "Seven."
6 Che Yesu ŵaasalile ŵandu ŵala atame paasi. Ŵajigele mikate saba jila ni ŵaatogolele Akunnungu, ŵagaŵenye ni kwapa ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵala kuti ŵaagaŵile ŵandu, nombewo ŵaagaŵile ŵandu wo.
He commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground, and he took the seven loaves. Having given thanks, he broke them, and gave them to his talmidim to serve, and they served the crowd.
7 Sooni ŵakwete tusomba kanandi. Che Yesu ŵaatogolele Akunnungu ni ŵaasalile ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaagaŵile ŵandu.
They had a few small fish. Having blessed them, he said to serve these also.
8 Ŵandu ŵala ŵalile ni kwikuta. Nipele ŵakulijiganya ŵakumbikenye sigasi ni ŵagumbesye itundu saba.
They ate, and were filled. They took up seven baskets of broken pieces that were left over.
9 Ŵandu ŵaŵalile ŵala ŵaliji mpela elufu nne. Nipele Che Yesu ŵalanjile,
Now they were about four thousand. Then he sent them away.
10 papopo ŵakwesile mu ngalaŵa pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ni kwaula chilambo cha ku Dalamanuta.
Immediately he entered into the boat with his talmidim, and came into the region of Dalmanutha.
11 Ŵaiche Mafalisayo ŵane ni ŵagatandite makani ni Che Yesu achisakaga kwatanjisya. Ŵaasachile atende chimanyisyo kulosya kuti ukombole wao ukutyochela kwinani kwa Akunnungu.
The Pharisees came out and began to question him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, and testing him.
12 Che Yesu ŵasupwiche nikuti, “Kwachichi ŵandu ŵa moŵa gano akusakanga chimanyisyo? Isyene ngunsalila, ŵandu ŵa ngaapegwa chimanyisyo chachilichose.”
He sighed deeply in his spirit, and said, "Why does this generation seek a sign? Truly I tell you, no sign will be given to this generation."
13 Nipele, Che Yesu ŵalekangene nawo ŵandu ŵala, ŵajinjile mu ngalaŵa ni kombochela peesi.
And he left them, and got into the boat again, and went to the other side.
14 Ŵakulijiganya ŵa Che Yesu ŵaliŵalile kwigala mikate, ŵakwete nkate umo pe mu ngalaŵa mula.
Now they forgot to take bread; and they did not have more than one loaf in the boat with them.
15 Che Yesu ŵaajamwiche achitiji, “Nlilolechesye, ni kuligosa ni amila ja Mafalisayo ni ja che Helode.”
He warned them, saying, "Watch out; guard yourselves against the hametz of the Pharisees and the hametz of Herod."
16 Ŵakulijiganya ŵala ŵatandite kuŵechetesyana achinsyene pe, “Akuŵecheta yelei ligongo nganitukola mikate.”
And they began discussing among themselves that they had no bread.
17 Che Yesu ŵaimanyilile iŵaliji nkuŵechetesyana, ni ŵausisye, “Kwachichi nkuusyana yati nganinjigala mikate? Ana mpaka sambano ngankulijiganya pane kumanyilila? Kwachichi ngankuganisya?
He, perceiving it, said to them, "Why do you reason that it's because you have no bread? Do you not perceive yet, neither understand? Are your hearts hardened?
18 Meeso nkwete, ana ngankulolanga? Mapilikanilo nkwete, ana ngankupilikana? Ana ngankukumbuchila
Having eyes, do you not see? Having ears, do you not hear? Do you not remember?
19 panagaŵenye mikate nsano jila ni kwapa ŵandu elufu tano, mwagumbesye itundu ilingwa ya sigasi?” Ŵakulijiganya ŵajanjile, “Itundu kumi na mbili.”
When I broke the five loaves among the five thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?" They told him, "Twelve."
20 Ŵausisye sooni, “Panagaŵenye mikate nsano ni jiŵili ni kwapa ŵandu elufu nne, ana mwagumbesye itundu ilingwa ya sigasi?” Ŵakulijiganya ŵala ŵajanjile, “Itundu saba.”
"When the seven loaves fed the four thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?" And they said, "Seven."
21 Che Yesu ŵausisye, “Nganimme kumanyilila?”
He asked them, "Do you not yet understand?"
22 Che Yesu pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵaiche ku nsinda wa ku Besesaida. Kukoko ŵandu ŵampelechele mundu jwangalola, ni ŵaachondelele Che Yesu kuti ankwaye kuti anlamye.
He came to Beit Tzaidah. They brought a blind man to him, and begged Yeshua to touch him.
23 Che Yesu ŵankamwile nkono mundu jwangalola jo ni ŵakopweche nawo paasa nsinda. Ni ŵansunile mata mmeeso, ŵasajichile makono ni ŵambusisye, “Nkukombola kuchiona chachilichose?”
He took hold of the blind man by the hand, and brought him out of the village. When he had spit on his eyes, and laid his hands on him, he asked him if he saw anything.
24 Mundu jwangalola jula ŵalolite nikuti, “Ngwaona ŵandu ali nkuoneka mpela itela ili nkwenda.”
He looked up, and said, "I see people; they look like trees walking."
25 Che Yesu ŵasajiche sooni makono gakwe mmeeso mwa jwangalola jula, nombejo ukombole wakwe wa kulola wammujilile.
Then again he laid his hands on his eyes. He made him look up, and was restored, and saw everything clearly.
26 Che Yesu ŵansalile mundu jo ajaule kumangwakwe ni kunkanya achitiji, “Nkaujila ku nsinda ni kwasalila ŵandu.”
He sent him away to his house, saying, "Do not enter into the village."
27 Che Yesu ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ŵajawile ku misi ja Kaisalia Filipi. Paŵaliji mwitala, Che Yesu ŵausisye ŵakulijiganya ŵao, “Ana ŵandu akuti une ndili nduni?”
Yeshua went out, with his talmidim, into the villages of Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his talmidim, "Who do people say that I am?"
28 Ŵakulijiganya ŵala ŵajanjile, “Ŵane akuti ŵalakwe ndi che Yohana Ŵakubatisya, ŵane akuti ndi che Elia ni ŵane akuti ndi jumo jwa Ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu.”
And they said to him, saying, "John the Immerser, and others say Elijah, but others: one of the prophets."
29 Che Yesu ŵausisye ŵakulijiganya ŵao, “Ŵanyamwe nkuti uneji nduni?” Che Petulo ŵajanjile, “Ŵalakwe ndi Kilisito, Jwasagulikwe ni Akunnungu.”
He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answered and said to him, "You are the Messiah."
30 Nipele Che Yesu ŵajamwiche achitiji, “Ngasimunsalila mundu jwalijose chelechi nkati une.”
He commanded them that they should tell no one about him.
31 Che Yesu ŵatandite kwajiganya ŵakulijiganya ŵao achitiji, “Mwana jwa Mundu akusachilwa asauche kwannope ni kukanikwa ni achachekulu ni achakulu ŵambopesi ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo. Nipele chachiulajikwa, nambo chasyuche pa lyuŵa lyaatatu.”
He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, the chief cohanim, and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
32 Che Yesu ŵaasalile yelei pangasisa. Nipele che Petulo ŵanjigele Che Yesu pajika ni kutanda kwakalipila kuti anasale indu yo.
He spoke to them openly. Peter took him, and began to rebuke him.
33 Nambo Che Yesu ŵagalawiche, ŵaalolechesye ŵakulijiganya ŵao ni kwakalipila che Petulo achitiji, “Shetani, ntyoche apa! Pakuwa ngankuganisya ngani ja Akunnungu nambo nkuganisya ngani sya ŵandu.”
But he, turning around, and seeing his talmidim, rebuked Peter, and said, "Get behind me, Satan. For you have in mind not the things of God, but the things of humans."
34 Nipele ŵauŵilasile mpingo wa ŵandu pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵao ni kwasalila, “Mundu jwalijose jwakusaka kuunguya, akatenda yakuisaka nsyene, aŵeje chile kusauka kwa kulitwika nsalaba wakwe kwaligongo lyangu une ni kuunguya.
He called the crowd to himself with his talmidim, and said to them, "If anyone wants to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
35 Pakuŵa jwalijose jwakusaka kuukulupusya umi wakwe nsyene, chaujase. Nambo, jwalijose jwakuujasa umi wakwe, kwaligongo lyangu une, ni sooni kwaligongo lya Ngani Jambone, chaukulupusye.
For whoever wants to save his life will lose it; and whoever will lose his life for my sake and the sake of the Good News will save it.
36 Ana mundu chapate chichi achikolaga chipanje chose cha pachilambo ni kwasa umi wakwe wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi?
For what does it profit a person to gain the whole world, and forfeit his soul?
37 Pane mundu chatyosye chichi kuti auusye umi wakwe wa moŵa gose pangali mbesi?
Or what will a person give in exchange for his soul?
38 Mundu jwalijose angolelaga soni une pamo ni ngani jangu mu uŵelesi wu wangalumbana ni wangaajogopa Akunnungu, Mwana jwa Mundu chankolele soni mundu jo, katema kachaiche mu ukulu wa Atati ŵakwe, pamo ni achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ŵaswela.”
For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man also will be ashamed of him, when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels."
