Lukka 10
1 Lino musule azyoonse eezi, Mwami wakasala bambi basika makkumi mousanu amakumi aabili, [amwi malembe manji achiindi aamba kuti makumi usanu aabili pesi amwi ati makumi musanu ababili] mpawo wakabatuma babili babili, kunembo lyakwe kumadolopo woonse ngakalangilide kwiinda mulingawo.
After these things the Lord chose seventy others also, and sent them out two by two before His face, into every place and city, where He was about to come.
2 Wakati kulimbabo, “Butebuzi mbunji loko, pesi babelesi mbache. Aboobo amukumbile kuli Leza wabutezi kuti atumine babelesi kumuunda wakwe.
And He said to them, The harvest is indeed great, but the laborers are few: therefore pray you the Lord of the harvest, that He may send forth laborers into His harvest.
3 Amwinke munzila yanu. Amulange ndamutuma mbuli mbelele akati kabawumpe.
Go: behold, I send you forth as lambs in the midst of wolves.
4 Tamubwezi nkomwe yamali, tamubwezi zikwama, tamubwezi nsangu, mpawo tamujuzyi bantu munzila.
Take neither purse, nor valise, nor sandals: salute no one by the way.
5 Kufumbwa ng'anda njimuyonjila, amukasangune akuti, “Luumuno alube aatala ang'and eeyi!'
Into whatsoever house you may enter, first say, Peace be unto this house.
6 Na kakuli muntu waluumuno aawo, luumuno lwenu luyokkala aalinguwe, pesi kuti kaatakwe, luyoobola kulindinywe.
And if the son of peace may be there, your peace shall rest upon it: but if not, it shall return unto you.
7 Amukakkale mung'anda eeyo kamulya akunywa eezyo nzibayoomupa, nkaambo mubelesi uleelede mufolo walkwe. Tamukeendi kuzwa kulimwi ng'anda kuya kuliimbi.
Abide in the same house, eating and drinking those things which are with them: for the laborer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.
8 Kufumbwa dolopo ndimuyoonjila, bakamutambule, amukalye eezyo nzibatakamupe,
Into whatsoever city you may enter and they may receive you, eat those things which are placed by you:
9 mpawo mukasilike bachiswa aawo. Amukatedi kulmbabo, 'Bwami bwa Leza bwasika afwiifwi andinywe.'
and heal the sick who are in it, and say to them, The kingdom of God has come nigh unto you.
10 Kufumbwa dolo[o ndimuyoonjila, bakakake kumutambula, amukayinke mumigwagwa mukatedi,
And into whatsoever city you may enter, and they may not receive you, having come out into the streets of the same, say,
11 'Nikuba lusuko lwamudolopo lyenu lwajatilila kumawulu eesu tulalukunkumuna kunembo lyenu! Pesi amuzibe eechi: Bwami bwa Leza bwasika afwiifwi.'
Even the dust from your city, that cleaveth to our feet, do we wipe off against you: but know this, that the kingdom of God is at hand.
12 Ndamwaambila kuti nibwayoosika buzuba bwakubetekwa kuyoba mbubo ku Sodoma kwiinda eelyo dolopo.
For I say unto you, that it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that city.
13 Mapenzi kulinduwe, Kkolazini! Mapenzi kulinduwe, Bbetisayida! Na milimu mipati yakachitwa mulindinywe yakali yachitwa mu Taya amu Sidon, nibanga bakasanduka chiindi loko, kabakkede muzizwato zyamasaka akulinana dota.
Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works which were wrought in you had been in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting down in sackcloth and ashes.
14 Pesi chiyoba mbubo ku Taya a Sidon kwiinda ndinywe.
Moreover it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you.
15 Iwe, Kkapenawuma, uyeeya kuti uzosumpwidwa kujulu na? Pepe, uzoboozegwa aansi ku Hadesi. (Hadēs g86)
And thou, Capernaum, art thou not exalted up to heaven? thou shalt be cast down to Hades. (Hadēs g86)
16 Ooyo uyoomuswiilila waswiilila ndime, ayooyo uyoomukaka wakaka ndime, aboobo ooyo undikaka wakaka awakandituma.”
He that heareth you heareth me; he that rejecteth you rejecteth me; and he that rejecteth me rejecteth Him that sent me.
17 Aaba balimakumi musanu amakumi aabili nakaboola lkabali mulukondo, kabaamba kuti, “Mwami, abadayimona boonse bakali kutuswiilila muzina lyako.”
And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subordinated to us in thy name.
18 Jesu wakasandula kati, “Ndalikweeba Satani kawa kuzwa kujulu mbuli kalabi.
And He said to them, I saw Satan having fallen as the lightning from heaven.
19 Amulange ndamupa manguzu aakulyata aatala anzoka atubanze, anguuzu zyoonse kwiinda zyasinkondonyokwe, alimwi taakwe nikuba muliili nzila chiyoomuchisa.
Behold I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing shall hurt you.
20 Nikuliboobo tamukondwi loko kuli zeezi azilike, pesi amupakale nkaambo mazina aanu alembwa kujulu.”
Moreover do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rejoice that your names are written in the heavens.
21 Kuchiindi nchincheecho wakabotelwa loko mu Muuya Uusalala, mpawo wakati, “Ndakutembawula, Taata, Mwami wa julu anyika, nkaambo wakasisa zikntu eezi kulibasibusongo akumvwisisisya, mpawo waziyubununa kuli aabo batayisizigwe, mbuli bana baniini. Iyii, Taata, kakuliboobo chalikubotezya kubusyu bwako.”
At the same hour He rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, I praise thee, O Father, Lord of the heaven and the earth, because thou hast hidden these things from the wise and prudent, and revealed them to babes: yea, Father, because it was thus pleasing in thy sight.
22 Zintu zyoonse zyapegwa kulindime kuzwa kuli Taata, alimwi taakwe uuzi Mwana kuti ngwani kunze kwa Taata, mpawo taakwe uuzi kuti Taata ngwani kunze kwa Mwana akuli wooyo Mwana ngasala kuybunwida.”
And turning to His disciples, He said, All things have been delivered to me by my Father: and no one knoweth who the Son is, except the Father; and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whom He may wish to reveal Him.
23 Mpawo wakachengunukila kuli basikwiiya bakwe mpawo wabaambila chansiswa kuti, “Balilongezezegwe aabo babona nzimubona.
And turning to His disciples, privately He said, Happy are your eyes, seeing those things which you see.
24 Ndati kulindinywe, kuli basinsimi biingi bakali aachiyandsyo chakubona nzimubona, pesi taakwe nibakazibona pe, akumvwa zintu nzimumvwa, pesi, taakwe nibakazimvwa pe.
For I say unto you, that many kings and prophets desired to see those things which you see, and saw them not; and to hear those things which you hear, and heard them not.
25 Amulange umwi muyiisyi wamilawu yachi Juda, wakanyampuka kayanda kumusunka, wakati, “Muyiisyi, niinzi nchenga ndilachita kuti ndijane buumi butamani?” (aiōnios g166)
And behold, a certain lawyer stood up tempting Him, saying, Teacher, having done what shall I inherit eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
26 Jesu wakamusandula wati, “Kulembedwe kutyeni mumulawu? Muubala biyeni?”
He said to him, What has been written in the law? how do you read it?
27 Naakasandula wakati, “Yanda Mwami Leza wako amoyo wako woonse, amuuya wako woonse, anguzu zyako zyoonse, akuyeeya kwako koonse, mpawo uyande simabambanwa wako mbuli mbmoliyanda omwini.”
And he responding said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with divine love from all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself.
28 Jesu wakatgu kulinguwe, “Wasandula kabotu. Zichite eei ulapona.”
And He said to him, You answered correctly: do this, and you shall live.
29 Pesi muyiisyi ooyu, nakalikweezya kulilwanina wakabuzya lubo kuli Jesu wati, “Animpo simabambanwa wangu ngwani?”
But he, wishing to justify himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbor?
30 Kalikumusandula Jesu wakati, “Umwi mwaalumi wakalikuyabuselela kazwa ku Jelusalema katozya ku Jelikko, wakaswaana babbi bakamubbida zintu zyakwe, mpawo bakamuuma bamusiya kali waamba kufwa.
Jesus responding said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho; and fell among thieves, who indeed having stripped him of his raiment, administered blows, went away, leaving him half dead.
31 Muchoolwe umwi mupayizi wakalikuyabweenda anzila njiyeeyo, mpawo naakamubona, wakiimnda mbali.
And by chance a certain priest came down that way: and seeing him, passed by on the other side.
32 Alubo mu Levi alakwe, nakasika aawo wamubona, wakiinda mbali.
And likewise also a Levite, being at the place, coming and seeing, passed by on the other side.
33 Pesi umwi mu Samaliya, wakali mulweendo lwakwe alakwe, wakasika aawo mpaakabede. Naakamubona wakamufwida luzyalo.
And a certain Samaritan, on a journey, came near him: and seeing, had compassion on him,
34 Wakaswena aafwiifwi wamwaanga zilonda, akumutila mafuta awayini aazilonda. Wakamutansika aamunyama wakwe mpawo wamutola kung'anda yabeenzu, kuyomubamba.
and having come to him, he bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine: and having mounted him on his own beast, carried him to a tavern, and cared for him.
35 Nibwakacha wakagwisya maseleni aabili, wapa mwani muunzi mpawo wakati, “Mubambe alimwi zyoonse nzuyoobelesya kwiinda aawa, ndaboola ndizokuliya.'
And on the morrow, taking out two denaria, gave them to the host, and said, Care for him; and whatsoever you expend in addition, on my return, I will pay you.
36 Ngwani akati kabaaba batatu, ngumunga mulayeeya kuti, ngosimabambanwa kuli ooyo pwakawumwa abasikubba?”
Which one of these three seems to you to have been the neighbor of him who fell among the thieves?
37 Muyiisyi wakati, “Ooyo wakamutondeezya luzyalo.” Jesu wakamusandula wati, “Koya ukachite mbubo ayebo.”
And he said, The one having done mercy with him. And Jesus said to him, Go, thou, and do likewise.
38 Lino nibakali kuyobweenda wakanjila mulilimwi gunzi, mpawo umwi mwanakazi uutegwa ngu Malita wakamutambula mung'anda.
And it came to pass while they were going round, He also came into a certain village: and a certain woman by name Martha received Him into her house.
39 Wakali amwana wakwabo walikutegwa ngi Meli, ooyo wakakkala kumawu a Mwami akumvwa jwi lyakwe.
And there was a sister to her called Mary, who indeed sitting down at the feet of the Lord, continued to hear his word:
40 Pesi Malita wakalijisinkini loko akubakutawukila kuti abape chakulya. Wakasika kuli Jesu wati, “Mwami, tokubwene na kuti mwanakesu wandilekelezya kuti ndibeleke endike? Mwaambile asike azoondoigwasye.”
and Martha was very busy about much serving. And standing over Him, she said, Lord, is there no care to thee that my sister has left me to serve alone? then say to her that she must assist me.
41 Pesi Mwami wakamusandula wati, “Malita, Malita, uli aakulikataazya azintu zyiingi,
And the Lord responding said to her, Martha, Martha, you are solicitous and encumbered concerning many things:
42 pesi nchintu chomwe biyo chiyandikana. Meli wasala chibotu loko kwiindilila alimwi tachikwe nayoochinyanzigwa pe.”
but there is need of one thing: for Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken from her.
