Lukka 8
1 Musule aachiindi Jesu wakeenda muzisi amumyuunzi kayabukambawuka akwaamba makani mabotu aatala abwaami bwa Leza. Balikumi ababili bakali antoomwe anguwe,
It happened soon afterward that Jesus began traveling around to different cities and villages, preaching and proclaiming the good news about the kingdom of God. The twelve were with him,
2 alubo bakali aamwi awumwi mwanakazi wakaponesegwa kuzwa kumyuuya mibi akuzilwazi. Meli wakalikutegwa Magadalini ooyo wakaponesegwa kuzwa kuma dayimona ali musanu aabili;
as well as certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and diseases: Mary who was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had been driven out;
3 Jowana, mukayintu wa Chuza, mubanzi wa Helodi, Susana abamwi biingi bakalikumusanina, kuzwa kulubono lwabo.
Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod's manager; Susanna; and many others, who, out of their possessions, provided for their needs.
4 Lino makamu aabantu naakabungene, bakaza kulinguwe kabazwa mumadolopo asiyene siyene wakabaambila chikozyanisyo.
While a large crowd of people was gathering, and people were coming to him from town after town, he told a parable:
5 “Mulimi wakaya kukubyala mbuto zyakwe, awo kalikubyala imwi yakawida munzila yalyatwa aamawulu abantu atuyuni twakujulu twakiilya.
“A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some fell beside the road and it was trampled underfoot, and the birds of the sky devoured it.
6 Imwi yakawida aabwe, yakamena chakufwambaana, mpawo yakanyana, nkaambo teyakalikwe kuteta aansi.
Some fell on the rock, and as soon as it grew up, it withered away, because it had no moisture.
7 Imwi yakawida mumaamvwa, mpawo maamvwa akakomena aamwi ambuto mpawo akiiyasa mbuto.
Some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up together with the seed and choked it.
8 Pesi imwi yakawida mumuse mubotu mpawo yakazyala michelo yakali abana biinda mwaanda.” Jesu nakaamana kwamba eezi zintu, wakoompola wati, “Ooyo uulamatwi aakumvwa, ngamvwe.”
But some fell on good soil and produced a crop that was a hundred times greater.” After Jesus had said these things, he called out, “Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.”
9 Basikwiiya bakwe bakabuzya kuti chaambayi chikozyanisio eechi.
His disciples asked him what this parable meant.
10 Wakati, “Luzibo lwansiswa zya Leza lulipedwe kulindinywe, pesi kulibamwi ndaambula muzikozyanisyo, nkaambo 'balabona pesi tababonesesyi, mpawo balamvwa pesi balakonzya kutamvwisisisya.'
He said, “The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but for others I speak in parables, so that 'seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.'
11 Lino nchechi chaamba chikomzyanisyo eechi: mbuto ndijwi lya Leza.
Now this is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God.
12 Aabo bali munzila mbaabo bamvwa, pesi dyabbulosi wasika wabweza jwi kuzwa mumyoyo yabo, kuchitila kuti tabasyomi akufutulwa.
The ones along the path are those who have heard, but then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so they may not believe and be saved.
13 Mpawo aabo bali aabbwe mbaabo, banga balimvwa jwi, balalimvwa chakukondwa. Pesi tabakwe miyanda; balasyoma kwakayindi kaniini mpawo muchiindi chamasunko balawida aansi.
The ones on the rock are those who, when they hear the word, receive it with joy. But they have no root; they believe for a while, and in a time of testing they fall away.
14 Mmbuto yakawida mumaamvwa mbantu banga balimvwa jwi, pesi nibeenda mnzila zyabo, balayaswa azintu zyenyika abuvubi antoomwe abubotu bwabuumi oobu, alimwi michelo yabo tiikomeni pe.
The seeds that fell among the thorns are people who hear the word, but as they go on their way, they are choked by the cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and their fruit does not mature.
15 Pesi imbuto yakawida mumuse mubotu, aaba mbaabo, bamvwa jwi amoyo wachoonzyo alusyomo, balalijata akuzyala michelo kabali alukakatizyo
But the seed that fell on the good soil, these are the ones who, hearing the word with an honest and good heart, hold it securely and bear fruit with patient endurance.
16 Lino, taakwe, uunga nadomeka lampi wali vumba achisuwo mna kulibika smuchinkuma. Ulalibika aachibikilo chalampi kuchitila kuti limunikile boonse banjila mung'anda, kuti babone mumuni.
No one lights a lamp and covers it with a bowl or puts it under a bed. Rather, he puts it on a lampstand so that everyone who enters may see the light.
17 Nkaambo tachiwo pe chisisikene chitakaleke kuzibwa, nikuba nsiswa iitakaleke kuzibwa mumuni wazoosika.
For nothing is hidden that will not be made known, nor is anything secret that will not be known and come into the light.
18 Aboobo amuswiilizye kabotu nkaambo ooyo uula nchajisi uyooyungizigwa, pesi ooyo uutakwe nchajisi nikuba eezyo nzyayeeya kuti ulijisi uyoonyanzigwa.”
So listen carefully, for to the one who has, more will be given to him, but the one who does not have, even what he thinks he has will be taken away from him.”
19 Mpawo banyina abakwabo bakasika kuli nguwe, pesi taakwe nibakamuswena afwiifwi pe nkaambo kamakamu miingi.
Then his mother and brothers came to him, but they could not get near him because of the crowd.
20 Bakamwaambila kuti, “Banyoko abakwanu, baliimvwi aanze bayanda kukubona.”
He was told, “Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.”
21 Pesi Jesu wakavwiila wati kuli mbabo, “Baamba abakwesu mbaabo bamvwa jwi lya Leza akulichita.”
But Jesus answered and said to them, “My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and do it.”
22 Lino bumwi buzuba wakanjila mubwaato abasikwiiya bakwe, mpawo wakati kulimbabo. “Atuye kulilimbi bbazu lya lwizi.” Bakayamba.
Now one day he got into a boat with his disciples, and he said to them, “Let us go over to the other side of the lake.” They set sail.
23 Kabachiyabuyamba, wakawona. Imvula mpati ilaaguwo yakasika aatala alwizi, bwaato bwabo bwakatalika kunjila maanzi alimwi bakali baba mubuyumuyumu.
But as they sailed he fell asleep. A terrible windstorm came down on the lake, and their boat was filling with water, and they were in danger.
24 Mpawo basikwiiya ba Jesu bakaza kuli nguwe bamusinsimuna bati, “Mwami, Mwami, twaamba kufwa. Wakabuka mpawo wuumuzya guwo amaanzi mpawo kwabatama.
Then Jesus' disciples came over to him and woke him up, saying, “Master! Master! We are about to die!” He awoke and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water, and they ceased, and there was a calm.
25 Mpawo wakati kuli mbabo, “Luli kuli lusyomo lwanu?” Pesi bakayoowa akugamba, bakabuzyania umwi awumwi kabati, “Ngwani ooyu, iguwo amanzi eelyo zilamuswiilizya?”
Then he said to them, “Where is your faith?” and they were afraid. While they were afraid they were also amazed, and they asked one another, “Who then is this, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?”
26 Bakayamba bakusika kuchisi cha Gelasensi, chili miutala eeliya alwizi lwa Galili.
They sailed to the region of the Gerasenes, which is across the lake from Galilee.
27 Lino Jesu naakalyata aanyika wakaswaana umwi mwaalumi wakali aama dimoni. Wakali waba achiindi chilamfu katakwe naakazwete zigogo pe, alubo teensi wakali kukkala mung'anda pesi wakali kukkala kuzyuumbwe.
When Jesus stepped on the land, he was met by a certain man from the city who had demons. For a long time he had worn no clothes, and he did not live in a house but among the tombs.
28 Aawo naakabona Jesu waka kwiila akuwida munsi lakwe wati kulinguwe ajwi pati, “Uli aamakanze nzi andime, Jesu mwana wa Leza uusumpukide loko? Ndakukumbila utandipenzyi.”
When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before him and he said with a loud voice, “What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you, do not torment me.”
29 Nkaambo Jesu wakali walayilila muuya mubi kuti uzwe mumuntu. Nkaambo wakali wamupenzya kwachiindi chilamfu, nikuba wakuli kunoonga waangwa nsimbi anketani, wakalikuzidunsula alimwi wakalikunoonga wazulwidwa amuuya ooyo kuya mulusaka.
For Jesus had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For many times it had seized him, and though he was bound with chains and shackles and kept under guard, he had broken his chains and he would be driven by the demon into the wilderness.
30 Mpawo Jesu wakamubuzya wati, “Nduweni zina lyako?” Wakasandula wati, “Ligiyoni,” nkaambo bakali biingi badayimona bakamunjide.
Then Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” and he said, “Legion,” for many demons had entered into him.
They kept begging him not to send them into the abyss. (Abyssos g12)
32 Lino butanga bwa ngulube bwakali kuchela munsi aachilundu. Mpawo badayimona aabo bakakumbila kuti banjizigwe mungulube eezyo, mpawo Jesu wakaazumizya.
Now a large herd of pigs was there feeding on the hillside. The demons begged him to let them go into them, and he gave them permission.
33 Madayimona aayo akazwa mumuntu aakunjila mungulube, alimwi ingulube eezyo zyakachijaana zyankunukila mulwizi zyayinkila.
So the demons came out of the man and went into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep slope into the lake and was drowned.
34 Lino aabo bakali kweembela tanga lya ngulube nibakabona zyakachitika, bakachijanina muguzi bakuluula zakachitika.
When those tending the pigs saw what had happened, they ran off and told about it in the city and countryside.
35 Mpawo bantu biingi bakasika kuti bazobone zyakachitika, mpawo bakasika kuli Jesu bazojana kuli mwaalumi ooyo kuli nguwe badyabbulosi nkubaka tandwa. Walkalikkede munsi lya Jesu, kazwete alimwi kali waba amaanu kalikabotu mpawo bakayoowa.
So the people went out to see what had happened, and they came to Jesus and found the man from whom the demons had gone out. He was sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.
36 Lino aabo bakazibona zyakachitika bakababuzya mbuzyakachitika zyakuponesegwa kwa mwaalumi wakali aaba dayimona mbaakaponesegwa.
Then those who had seen it told them how the man who had been possessed by demons had been healed.
37 Lino bantu bamu Gerasensi bakakumbila Jesu kuti azwe kuli mbabo, nkaambo obakali baba aakuyowa kupati. Aboobo wakaknjila mubwaato kuti basangune kuyamba babweede.
Then all the people of the region of the Gerasenes asked Jesus to depart from them, for they were overwhelmed with great fear. So he got into the boat so they could start back.
38 Mwaalumi ooyu wakagwisigwa ba dyabbulosi wakakumbila Jesu kuti bayinke aamwi, pesi Jesu wakamukakila wati,
The man from whom the demons had gone out begged him to let him go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying,
39 “Bweeda kumunzi wako ukabaambile zyoonse Leza nzyakuchitila.” Ooyu mwaalumi wakayinka kayobwaamba mudolopo lyoomnse aatala anzyakamuchitila Jesu.
“Return to your home and give a full account of what God has done for you.” The man went on his way, proclaiming throughout the whole city what Jesus had done for him.
40 Lino Jesu nakabweeda, makamu akamutambula nkaambo bakali kumulangila.
Now when Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed him, for they were all expecting him.
41 Amubone umwi mwaalumi uutegwa Jayilasi wakali uumwi wabeendelezi bachikombelo, wakasika wawida kumawulu aa Jesu mpawo wamukumbila kuti ayinke kung'anda yakwe,
Behold, a man named Jairus, who was one of the leaders of the synagogue, came and fell down at Jesus' feet, and he begged him to come to his house,
42 nkaambo mwanakwe uzyedwe alikke, musimbi wakali amyaaka yakachibe kkumi ayibili wakali waamba kufwa. Awo Jesu nakali munzila kuya nkuko, makamu makamu aabantu akamuzyunguluka chaku syankana.
because his only daughter, a girl of about twelve years of age, was dying. As Jesus was on his way, the crowds of people pressed together around him.
43 Lino aawo kwakaliwo mwanakazi wakali kuzwa gazi kwamyaaka iilikumi ayibili mpawo wakabelesya mali yakwe yoonse kuzibbadela, pesi taakwe naakapona pe.
Now a woman was there who had been bleeding for twelve years and had spent all her money, and could not be healed by anyone.
44 Wakasika kusule lya Jesu mpawo wakajata lupipito lwa jansi lyakwe, mpawo aawo gazi lyakayimikila kuzwa.
She came behind Jesus and touched the edge of his coat, and immediately her bleeding stopped.
45 Jesu wakati, “Ngwani wandi guma?” Boonse nibakakazya Pita wakati, “Makamu makamu aabantu alikuzyungulukide alimwi akusyankania.”
Jesus said, “Who was it who touched me?” When all denied it, Peter said, “Master, the crowds of people are all around you and they are pressing in against you.”
46 Pesi Jesu wakati, “Mpali wandiguma nkaambo ndaziba kuti inguzu zyazwa mulindime.”
But Jesus said, “Someone did touch me, for I know that power has gone out from me.”
47 Lino mwanakazi ooyo naakabona kuti takuyubiki wakaza ulakankamba akuwida ansi kunembo lyakwe. Wakalungununa kunembo lyabantu boonse nchaakamugumina akuponesegwa nkwaakachita mpawo aawo.
When the woman saw that she could not escape notice, she came trembling and fell down before him. In the presence of all the people she declared why she had touched him and how she had been immediately healed.
48 Mpawo wakati kuli nguwe “Mwanangu, lusyomo lwako lwakufutula. Yinka muluumuno.”
Then he said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace.”
49 Naakachili kwaambula, umwi wakasika kuzwa kung'anda yamuzuluzi wachikombelo, wati, “Mwana wako wafwa kale. Utachimukatazyi pe muyiisyi.”
While he was still speaking, someone came from the synagogue leader's house, saying, “Your daughter is dead. Do not trouble the teacher any longer.”
50 Pesi Jesu naakamvwa eezi wakasansula Jayilasi wati, “Utayoowi, syoma biyo, mpawo ulaponesegwa.”
But when Jesus heard this, he answered Jairus, “Do not be afraid; only believe, and she will be healed.”
51 Naakasika kung'anda, taakwe muntu ngwaakazumizya kunjila aawe, kunze kwa Pita a Joni a Jemusi, awisi wamwana abanyina.
When he came to the house, he allowed no one to enter with him, except Peter and John and James, and the father of the child and her mother.
52 Lino boonse bakali kuusa akumulila, pesi wakati, “Mutalili pe; tafwide pe ulikoona biya.”
Now all were mourning and wailing for her, but he said, “Do not weep; she is not dead but asleep.”
53 Pesi bakamuseka, nkaambo bakalizi kuti ulifwide.
But they laughed at him, knowing that she was dead.
54 Mpawo wakamujata akuboko akoompolola, wakati, “Yo mwana buka!”
But he took her by the hand and called out, saying, “Child, get up!”
55 Muuya wakwe waka boola, mpao aawo wakabuka. wakabalayilila kuti bamupe chakulya.
Her spirit returned, and she rose up immediately. He ordered them to get her something to eat.
56 Bazyali bakwe bakagamba pesi wakabalayilila kuti bataambili muntu achakachitika.
Her parents were astonished, but he ordered them to tell no one what had happened.
