< Luke 7 >

1 And when he completed all his sayings in the ears of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
Bhakabheleketeje gubhapinjile bhandu bhapilikananje gala, a Yeshu gubhapite kushilambo sha ku Kapalanaumu.
2 And a certain centurion's bondman faring badly was going to perish, who was esteemed by him.
Kweneko bhashinkupagwa bhakulungwa bhamo bha manjola ga Bhaloma, bhenebho bhashinkukola ntumwa jwabho jubhampinjile kaje. Jwene ntumwajo atendaga lwala tome kuwa.
3 And having heard about Jesus, he sent elders of the Jews to him who asked him that, having come, he would save his bondman.
Bhakulungwa bha manjola bhala bhakapilikaneje nnganya ja a Yeshu, gubhaatumilenje bhanangulungwa bha Bhayaudi bhajendangane bhakaajuganje a Yeshu bhakannamye ntumwa jwabho.
4 And when they came to Jesus they urged him earnestly, saying, He is worthy for whom thou may offer this,
Bhakaikanganeje kwa a Yeshu gubhaashondelesheyenje kaje, bhalinkutinji, “Bhenebha inapwaa kwaatendela nneyo,
5 for he loves our nation, and he himself built the synagogue for us.
pabha bhanakwapinganga bhandu bhetu, na bhashikutushenjela shinagogi jila.”
6 And Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far distant from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him, Lord, be not troubled, for I am not worthy that thou should come under my roof.
Bhai a Yeshu gubhalongene nabhonji, bhandunji bhala. Bhali tome na ika ku likaja lya bhakulungwa bha manjola ga Bhaloma bhala, bhakulungwa bha manjola bhala gubhaatumilenje asha ambwiga ajabhonji kubhaalugulilanje a Yeshu kuti, “Mmakulungwa nnapunde kwiiabhuya, pabha nne nangali malango ga kumposhela mmwe nnyumba jangu.
7 Therefore neither did I consider myself worthy to come to thee, but speak by word, and my boy will be healed.
Na shiumilo niibhone nangali shanga sha kwiya kunngwenu mmwe. Ikabheje mmelekete lilobhepe na ntumwa jwangu shaalame.
8 For I also am a man set under authority, having soldiers under myself. And I say to this man, Go, and he goes, and to another, Come, and he comes, and to my bondman, Do this, and he does.
Pabha nkali nne puni pai ja ukulungwa, pai jangu bhapalinji ashimanjola. Na nimmalanjiga linjola jumo, ‘Jenda’ alikwenda, nimmalanjilaga juna, ‘Jiya’ anakwiya, na nimmalanjilaga ntumwa jwangu, ‘Tenda ashi,’ najwalakwe alitenda.”
9 And when Jesus heard these things, he marveled him, and having turned around to the multitude who followed him, he said, I say to you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith.
A Yeshu bhakapilikaneje genego bhashinkuimonga kaje, gubhatendebhwishe nikululola lugwinjili lwa bhandu bhaakagulangaga bhala, gubhashite, “Nganabhe kummona mundu akwete ngulupai jikulungwa nnei nkali kubhandu bha Ishilaeli.”
10 And those who were sent, having returned to the house, found the bondman who was feeble, being well.
Bhandunji bhala bhakaikanganeje kumui, gubhanng'imenenje ntumwa jula alamile.
11 And it came to pass on the next day that he went to a city called Nain, and a considerable number of his disciples went with him, also a large multitude.
Lyubha lyolyo a Yeshu gubhapite kushilambo shimo shashemwaga ku Naini, bhali bhalongene na bhaajiganywa bhabho na likundi likulungwa lya bhandu.
12 Now when he came near to the gate of the city, behold, an only begotten son who died was being carried out for his mother. And she was a widow, and a considerable crowd of the city was with her.
Bhai, bhali tome na nnango gwa lugwani gwa jinjilila nshilambo mula, gubhakoposhelenje bhandunji bhajigelenje maiti gaka nngwendo jumo mwana jwa jikape jwa bhakongwe bha shitenga. Bhandunji bhabhagwinji bha shene shilambo shila pubhalinginji pamo na bhakongwe bha shitenga bhala.
13 And when the Lord saw her, he felt compassion toward her, and said to her, Weep not.
Bhakulungwa a Yeshu bhakaabhoneje bhakongwe bhala gubhaabhonele shiya, gubhaalugulile, “Nnagute.”
14 And having come, he touched the coffin, and the men carrying it stood still. And he said, Young man, I say to thee, arise.
Kungai gubhapite kushikwaya shinanda shibhajigalilenje maiti shila, na bhajigelenje bhala gubhajimingene. Nigubhashite, “Nngwendo! Ngunakuubhalanjila, jinuka!”
15 And the dead man sat up, and began to speak. And he gave him to his mother.
Nngwendo awile jula, gwajinwishe gwatemi, gwatandwibhe kubheleketa. A Yeshu gubhankamwiye kwa akwabhe.
16 And fear seized all. And they glorified God, saying, A great prophet has been raised among us, and, God came to help his people.
Bhandu bhowe gubhajogopenje, gubhaainiyenje a Nnungu bhalinkutinji, “Ankulondola bhakulungwa bha a Nnungu bhakoposhele munkumbi gwetu. A Nnungu bhashikwiya kukwaajangutilanga bhandu bhabho.”
17 And this report about him went forth in the whole of Judea, and in all the region around.
Jene nganijo jikushumaga ku Yudea kowe na ilambo ya tome.
18 And the disciples of John informed him about all these things.
Bhaajiganywa bha a Yowana gubhaalugulilenje a Yowana yowe yatendekaga ila. Nabhalabho a Yowana gubhaashemilenje bhaajiganywa bhabho bhabhili,
19 And having summoned a certain two of his disciples, John sent them to Jesus, saying, Are thou he who comes, or do we look for another man?
gubhaatumilenje ku Bhakulungwa a Yeshu bhakaabhuyanje. “Bhuli, mmwe Bhaatapula bhakwiya bhala eu twaalindilile bhana?”
20 And when they came to him, they said, John the immerser has sent us to thee, saying, Are thou he who comes, or do we look for another man?
Bhaajiganywa bhala bhakaaimananjeje a Yeshu gubhaabhalanjilenje, Tushitumwa na a Yowana Bhaabhatisha tummuye kuti, “Bhuli, mmwe Bhaatapula bhakwiya bhala eu twaalindilile bhana?”
21 And in the same hour he healed many from diseases and plagues and evil spirits. And he granted sight to many blind men.
Popo pepo a Yeshu bhatendaga kwaalamyanga bhandu bhabhagwinji bhalagangaga na ilwele na bhashikilwanga maoka na kwaapanganga kulola ashinangalole bhabhagwinji.
22 And having answered, Jesus said to them, After going, report to John the things that ye saw and heard: the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, the poor are preached good news.
Bhai, a Yeshu gubhaajangwilenje. “Nnjendangane nkaabhalanjilanje a Yowana yowe impilikenenje na kwiilolela mmashayenenji, ashinangalole bhanalolanga, ashinangwabha bhanakwendangana, bhamangundula bhanalama, ashinangapilikane bhanapilikana, bhawilenje bhanayuywanga, na bhaalaga bhanalungushiywanga Ngani ja Mmbone.
23 And blessed is he, whoever will not be offended by me.
Mbaya jwene mundu ikakunshima kwa ligongo lyangu nne.”
24 And after John's messengers departed, he began to say to the multitudes about John, What did ye go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind?
Bhaajiganywa bha a Yowana bhakajabhulanganeje penepo, a Yeshu gubhatandwibhe kwaalugulilanga bhandu bhagumbelenje bhala nnganya ja a Yowana. “Pumwapitengenenje mukonde kukushibhona nndi? Mwaganishiyanga kukulibhona litete litikinywa na mbungo?
25 But what did ye go out to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, those in elegant clothing, and existing in luxury, are in kingly places.
Ikabhe nneyo, kumwapitengenenje kulola nndi? Kumwapitengenenje kukunnola mundu awalile nngubho ya bhei jikulungwa? Bhaawalanga nngubho ya bhei jikulungwa nitama ndamo ya poka mwaakutamangana mmajumba ga shipalume!
26 But what did ye go out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say to you, and much more than a prophet.
Bhai, mmalanjilanje, mwapitengenenje kulola nndi? Mwapitengenenje kunnola nkulondola? Elo, numbe ngunakummalanjilanga, kupunda nkulondola.
27 This is he about whom it is written, Behold, I send my agent before thy face, who will prepare thy way before thee.
Bhenebha ni a Yowana bhalugwilwe Mmajandiko ga Ukonjelo. ‘Ngunakuntuma muntenga jwangu, Anng'alashiye mpanda gwenu.’”
28 For I say to you, among men born of women there is not one prophet greater than John the immerser, yet the smaller in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
“Ngunakummalanjilanga, munkumbi gwa bhabhelekwenje jwakwapi ali jwankulungwa kwaapunda a Yowana Bhabhatisha. Ikabheje, jwene ali jwa nshoko kaje mu Upalume gwa a Nnungu, ni ali jwa nkulungwa kupunda bhenebho.”
29 And all the people having heard, and the tax collectors who were immersed the immersion of John, justified God.
Bhandu bhowe bhapilikenenje genego na nkali bhaakamula koli nigubhakundilenje kuti a Nnungu ni bha aki na bhanguja pabha bhashinkubhatishwanga na a Yowana.
30 But the Pharisees and the lawyers who were not immersed by him, rejected the purpose of God for themselves.
Ikabheje mapalishayo na bhaajiganya bha shalia, bhashinkukananga yatumbililwe na a Nnungu, kwa nneyo nigibhakanilenje kubhatishwa na a Yowana.
31 To what, then will I compare the men of this generation, and to what are they like?
A Yeshu nigubhaabhushiyenje, “Bhai bhandu bha lwene lubhelekolu naalandanyanje na nndi? Paakulandananga na shindu shashi?
32 They are like children sitting in the marketplace, and calling to each other, and saying, We piped to you, and ye did not dance. We mourned to you, and ye did not weep.
Bhashilandananga na bhana bhatemingene pa lubhala lwa ushiya indu, bhalishemananga ashayenenji. Twashinkunngombelenga imbeta, ikabheje mwangainanga! Twashinkunnjimbilanga nyimbo ya ililo ikabheje mmanganya mwangagutanga!
33 For John the immerser has come neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and ye say, He has a demon.
Pabha a Yowana bhashinkwiya, bhatendaga tabha na bhakang'waga divai, mmanganya gunshitenje. ‘Bhakwete lioka!’
34 The Son of man has come eating and drinking, and ye say, Behold the man, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!
Najwalakwe Mwana juka Mundu ashiika, analya na kung'wa, mmanganya gunshitenje. ‘Munnolanje, jwa doka na kolelwaju, mmbwiga nnjabhonji bhakamula koli na bhakwetenje yambi!’
35 And wisdom is justified from all her children.
Nkali nneyo, lunda lwa a Nnungu lumanyishe kuti lwa mmbone na lwa aki kubhandu bhowe bhakundilenje.”
36 And a certain man of the Pharisees asked him that he would eat with him. And having entered into the Pharisee's house, he sat down.
Bhapalishayo bhamo bhashinkwaashemela shalya a Yeshu kunngwabho. Nigubhajinjile nnyumba ja a bhapalishayo bhala gubhatemi kulya shalya.
37 And behold, a woman in the city who was sinful. And when she knew that he sat in the Pharisee's house, having brought an alabaster cruse of ointment,
Bhai, pene pa shilambo pala, bhashinkupagwa bhakongwe bhamo bhakwete yambi. Bhakapilikaneje kuti a Yeshu mubhali nnyumba ja a Palishayo bhala, gubhatolile shupa sha mauta ga nunjila shieleywe kwa liganga lya alabhashita.
38 and having stood behind near his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with the tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head. And she kissed his feet much, and anointed them with the ointment.
Nigubhajimi tome na makongono ga a Yeshu bhaliguta, na minyoi jabho jilikwaandolishila a Yeshu mmakongono. Bhakongwe bhala gubhaponwele makongono ga a Yeshu kwa umbo yabho. Kungai gubhagalambile makongono gala na gubhaapekeye mauta ga nunjila gala.
39 But when the Pharisee who invited him saw it, he spoke within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would know who and what kind the woman is who touches him, that she is sinful.
Bhapalishayo bhaashemile a Yeshu bhala, bhakagabhoneje genego, gubhaganishiye muntima gwabho, “Abha bhandubha kweli bhaakaliji ankulondola bha a Nnungu, ikaaliji bhamumanyi shibhali abha bhakongwe bhakwaakwayabha kuti bhakwete yambi.”
40 And having responded, Jesus said to him, Simon, I have something to say to thee. And he says, speak Teacher.
A Yeshu gubhaabhalanjile bhapalishayo bhala, “a Shimoni, shipali shindu shingupinga kummalanjila.” Nabhalabho a Shimoni bhakwaalugulilaga, “Elo, mmelekete Mmajiganya.”
41 There were two debtors to a certain creditor, the one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
A Yeshu gubhashite, “Bhandu bhabhili bhashinkupolekanga ela kubhandu bhamo, bhamo libhalongwaga ligambo lya nshaala gwa shaka shimo na nushu, bhana ligambo lya nshaala gwa mwei gumo na nushu.
42 And of them not having to repay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore, do thou say, will love him more?
Bhakalepelanjeje kulipa magambo gabhonji, bhandu bhala gubhaaleshelelenje bhanaabhili. Lelo penepo munkumbi gwa bhene bhabhilibho, bhei shibhapunde kwaapinga bhaaleshelela magambo bhala?”
43 And having answered, Simon said, I suppose that it was to whom he forgave more. And he said to him, Thou have judged correctly.
A Shimoni gubhajangwile, “Penepo imanyishe kuti, bhaleshelelwe ligambo likulungwa shibhapunde kwaapinjiya.” A Yeshu gubhaabhalanjile, “Elo penepo nnjangwile ukoto.”
44 And having turned to the woman, he said to Simon, See thou this woman? I entered into thy house; thou gave no water for my feet. But this woman has wet my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head.
Penepo gubhaatendebhushile bhakongwe bhala, nikwaalugulila a Shimoni, “Nnikwaabhona abha bhakongwebha? Nne punyinjile munngwenu muno mwangamba mashi ga nabha mmakongono gangu, ikabheje abha bhakongwebha bhashinyobhya makongono gangu na minyoi jabho nimbonola na umbo yabho.
45 Thou gave me no kiss, but this woman, since I came in, has not ceased kissing my feet much.
Mmwe mwanganyambata, ikabheje abha bhakongwebha shijinjilile nne apano bhatendaga nyambata makongono gangu.
46 Thou did not anoint my head with olive oil, but this woman has anointed my feet with ointment.
Mmwe mwangambakaya mauta muntwe, ikabheje abha bhakongwebha bhashimbakaya mauta mmakongono gangu.
47 For this reason I say to thee, her many sins are forgiven, because she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, loves little.
Kwa nneyo ngunakummalanjila kupinjiya kwabho kwapunda kunalanguya kuleshelelwa kwa ilebho yabho yaigwinji. Aleshelelwe ilebho ishoko, kupinga kwakwe kushokope.”
48 And he said to her, Thy sins are forgiven.
Bhai a Yeshu gubhaabhalanjile bhakongwebhala, “Nneshelelwele yambi yenu.”
49 And those who sat together began to say within themselves, Who is this who even forgives sins?
Penepo bhatemingenenabho pashalya bhala gwaabhuyenenje, “Bhenebha bhandu bhashi, bhaakombola nkali kuleshelela yambi?”
50 And he said to the woman, Thy faith has saved thee. Go in peace.
Nabhalabho a Yeshu gubhaabhalanjile bhakongwe bhala, “Ngulupai jenu jintapwile, nnjende kwa ulele.”
