Lukka 21
1 Jesu wakalanga wabona balumi bavubi kabalokubikka zipo munkomo yakubikkila mali.
And he looked up, and saw rich men casting their gifts into the treasury.
2 Wakabona umwi muka mufu ufwaba kalokubikka tunini tobile.
And he saw also a certain poor widow, casting in thither two mites.
3 Lino wakati, “Kasimpe ndamba obu kulindunywe, oyu muchete mukamufu wapa kwinda boonse.
And he said, Of a truth I say to you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all.
4 Boonse bapa zipo mukwindilila mukuvula kwazyo. Pesi mukamufu, kwinda buchete bwakwe, wabikka toonse twayelede kupona ato”.
For all these have of their abundance cast in to the offerings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had.
5 Abamwi bakali kwambula achikombelo, yasamika mabwe mabotu azituuzyo, wakamba,
And as some spoke of the temple, that it was adorned with goodly stones, and gifts, he said,
6 “kulizezi zintu nzimubwene, izuba liyosika nikuyochala katachikwe bbwe lilatala abbwe nyina liyochala kalitawidide ansi.”
[As for] these things which ye behold, the days will come, in which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that will not be thrown down.
7 Bamumuzya bati, “Muyisi, ndilili niziyochitika zintu ezi?” Alubo nchiinzi chiyoba chitondezyo chakuti zintu ezi zyaamba kuchitika?”
And they asked him, saying, Master, but when will these things be? and what sign [will there be] when these things shall come to pass?
8 Jesu wakasandula, “Amuchenjele kuti muteenwi. Nkambo bayosika muzina lyangu kabati 'ndime oyoo'a 'chindi chaba afwifwi' mutakabatobeli.
And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many will come in my name, saying, I am [Christ]; and the time draweth near: therefore go ye not after them.
9 Mwakumvwa nkondo ampyompyongano mutakayowi, nkambo zintu ezi zyelede kuchitikana kusanguna, pele mamanino takayochitika kufwambana”.
But when ye shall hear of wars, and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass: but the end [is] not immediately.
10 Mpawo wakati kulimbabo, “Chisi chiyolwana achisi nyina.
Then said he to them, Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
11 Kuyooba mizuzumino mipati munyika, anzala mumasena asiyenesiyene azilwazi, kuyoba ziyosya azitondeezyo zipati zizwa kujulu.
And great earthquakes will be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences: and fearful sights, and great signs will there be from heaven.
12 Pesi kakutanachitika ezi zintu, bayobikka manza abo alindinywe akumupenzya, bamwabe muzikombelo amuntolongo, akumweeta kunembo lyabami abendelezi nkambo kazina lyangu.
But before all these they will lay their hands on you, and persecute [you], delivering [you] up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake.
13 Kuyoba bukamboni kulindinywe.
And it shall turn to you for a testimony.
14 Nkambo kako amukanze mumyoyo yanu kuteezeezya makani ngimuyowamba,
Settle [it] therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer.
15 nkambo ndime usikamupe majwi abusongo kuti boonse basinkondo nyokwe bakachilwe kukaka akukazya.
For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.
16 Pele muyozipegwa atala abazyali, bakulana, nzubo, abenzuma alimwi bayobikwa bamwi bana mulufu.
And ye will be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsmen, and friends; and [some] of you will they cause to be put to death.
17 Muyosulwa moonse nkambo kazina lyangu.
And ye will be hated by all [men] for my name's sake.
18 Pele takukoyooba kasusu kakumitwe yanu kayooloba.
But there shall not a hair of your head perish.
19 Kumakatazyo muyoobujana bumi bwanu.
In your patience possess ye your souls.
20 “Nimwakubona Jelusalema yazyungulukwa ampi, lino muyoziba kuti kusaalwa kwabo kwaba afwifwi.
And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that its desolation is nigh.
21 Lino abo bali muJudiya abachijile mumalundu, alubo bali mudolopo abazwe, abo alabo bali anze achisi tabelede kunjila mudolopo.
Then let them who are in Judea flee to the mountains; and let them who are in the midst of it depart [from it]; and let not them that are in the countries enter into it.
22 Nkambo aya mazuba akubwedzya chibi, kuti zintu zyoonse zilembedwe ziyoozuzikizigwe.
For these are the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
23 Mawee kuli babo bamisi akulibabo banyonsya kumazuba ayo! Nkambo kuyoba mapenzi mapati munyika, ayendelana abantu aba.
But woe to them that are with child, and to them that nurse infants in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people.
24 Bayojegwa apanga, bayootolwa baange kuzisi zyoonse a Jelusalemu uyoozunganisigwa abamasi kusikila chindi chabamasi chizulile.
And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles shall be fulfilled.
25 Kuyooba zitondeezyo kuzuba, akumwezi, amunyenyezi. Amunyika, nyika iyoba akakukatazigwa nkambo kakuvuuma kwamayuwe amulwizi.
And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
26 Kuyoba bantu bayoomana nguzu akuyowa akuyeya zintu zitasikile nyika. Nkambo nguzu zyakujulu ziyozunganisigwa.
Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for apprehension of those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
27 Mpawo bayomubona Mwana mulombe wa Muntu kaboola mujoba munguzu amubulemu bupati.
And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud, with power and great glory.
28 Pele zintu ezi zyakutalika kuchitika, amunyampuke akulungumika mitwe yanu, nkambo lwangunuko lwanu lwaba afwifwi”.
And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads: for your redemption draweth nigh.
29 Jesu wakabambila muzikozyano, “Mulange mukuyu amasamu onse.
And he spoke to them a parable; Behold the fig-tree, and all the trees;
30 Lino na asyuuka ndelema, anga mwabona lwanu akuziba mayinza aba afwifwi.
When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your ownselves that summer is now nigh at hand.
31 Lino aboobo, na mwabona zintu ezi kazichitika, muyoziba kuti bwami bwaLeza bwaba afwifwi.
So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand.
32 Kasimpe ndamwambila obu nywe, olu lunyungu talukayindi mane zintu ezi zikachitike.
Verily I say to you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled.
33 Ijulu anyika ziyoyinda, pele ijwi lyangu talikoyomana pe.
Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my word shall not pass away.
34 Pesi amuswilile lwanu, kuti myoyo yanu italemenwi akwindilizya kunywa akukolwa akulipenzya abuumi, azuba elyo talikoyomujana kufwambana pe
And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and [so] that day come upon you unawares.
35 mbuli kakole. Nkambo chiyosikila kuli boonse bapona kubusyu bwanyika yoonse.
For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
36 Pesi amulibambile chindi choonse, mukombe kuti mube anguzu akuchija zintu ezi zitachitike, akwiima kunembo lya Mwana mulombe wa Muntu”.
Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
37 Lino kuzwa kuseni kusikila goko wakali kuyiisya muzikombelo, munsi wakali kuzwa anze akuyokkala kutegwa Oliveti.
And in the day-time he was teaching in the temple; and at night he went out, and abode in the mount that is called [the mount] of Olives.
38 Bantu boonse balikusika kuseni kuzomuswilizya mutempele.
And all the people came early in the morning to him in the temple, to hear him.
