Luke 12
1 In those [times], the myriads of the crowd being gathered together, so that they trod one on another, he began to say to his disciples first, Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy;
Munako zana, chikiti chavantu chibena hamwina, mbwita nibalilyata jo bungi, chatanga kuwamba kuva rutwana bakwe, Mutokomere mulungo wava Farisi, iri kuliha
2 but there is nothing covered up which shall not be revealed, nor secret that shall not be known;
Kono kakwina chinchinte, chete nichi kanwe kwi zibahazwa,
3 therefore whatever ye have said in the darkness shall be heard in the light, and what ye have spoken in the ear in chambers shall be proclaimed upon the housetops.
Cwale chose cimu va wambi mwififi kachi zibahazwe mwiseli, mi chimubali kushovota muma ntwi kachi huwerezwe hakantungandi ke zuvo.
4 But I say to you, my friends, Fear not those who kill the body and after this have no more that they can do.
Ni wamba kwenu balikani, kanji muntiyi behaya mubili, kuzwa ho kavena chimwi chiva ola kupanga,
5 But I will shew you whom ye shall fear: Fear him who after he has killed has authority to cast into hell; yea, I say to you, Fear him. (Geenna g1067)
Kono me ni mikalimera kuamana neni umowola kutiya. Mutiye yenke uzo Hamana kwi haya, wina ziho zo kutumina mwi here, Eye, Ni miwambira, mumutiye. (Geenna g1067)
6 Are not five sparrows sold for two assaria? and one of them is not forgotten before God.
Kena kuti tuzuni tukuma he yanza limwina tu uziwa hetenko i likana tukoviri to Vere? Kono nanganti konke kutuli kase hupulwa kweIreza.
7 But even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore, ye are better than many sparrows.
Kono nangati i mpalo ye nsunki nzenu ivalitwe, Kanji mutiyi. Mwina butokwa kuhita tuzuni tungi.
8 But I say to you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, the Son of man will confess him also before the angels of God;
Ni wamba kwenu, yense yo niwamba havusu bwa bantu, Mwana u muntu kaka muwambe naye habusu bwa mañiloyi e Ireza.
9 but he that shall have denied me before men shall be denied before the angels of God;
kono nyense yo nisampula havusu bwa Vvantu kaka sampulwe havunsu bwa mañiloyi e Reza.
10 and whoever shall say a word against the Son of man it shall be forgiven him; but to him that speaks injuriously against the Holy Spirit it shall not be forgiven.
Yense yo wamba linzwi ivilala kuamana ni mwana wo Muntu, ka wonderwe awo mazwi, kono kozo yo wamba vuvilala kuamana ni Luhuho lu Njolola, kasana a wonderwe.
11 But when they bring you before the synagogues and rulers and the authorities, be not careful how or what ye shall answer, or what ye shall say;
Hasana kava mi lete havusu bwa masinangonge, va yendisi, ni vena ha muvuso, kanji ni muvireri kuamana nimwete ni mwi tavire ku amana ni kulizimanina, kamba chete ni muwambe,
12 for the Holy Spirit shall teach you in the hour itself what should be said.
kakuli Luhuho lu Njolola kalumi ka lumi lute mweyo nako chizi chi muswanera kuwamba.
13 And a person said to him out of the crowd, Teacher, speak to my brother to divide the inheritance with me.
Linu zumwi mukati kechisi cha cho kwali, “Muruti, wambire mukulwangu kuti a liyavire chifumu chavayoli name.”
14 But he said to him, Man, who established me [as] a judge or a divider over you?
Jesu cha kwa li, “Mukwame, Jeni wani vika mu atuli kamba muzimanini hakati kenu?”
15 And he said to them, Take heed and keep yourselves from all covetousness, for [it is] not because a man is in abundance [that] his life is in his possessions.
Mi chati kuvali muli tokomere kobona kuti mulizwisa ku takazo yonse yomuuna, kakuti vuhalpo vo muntu kabwina vulyo hachi fumu chali kunganize muntu.”
16 And he spoke a parable to them, saying, The land of a certain rich man brought forth abundantly.
Linu Jesu chava wambira i nguli, ni kucho Iuwa lo mukwame yavali kufumite, luvali kuvikite ahulu,
17 And he reasoned within himself saying, What shall I do? for I have not [a place] where I shall lay up my fruits.
mi chali wambira ni kucho, chizi chete ni pange kakuli kanina chiviko cho kuvika zilyo zina lima?
18 And he said, This will I do: I will take away my granaries and build greater, and there I will lay up all my produce and my good things;
Cha wamba, í chi jichona chete ni pange. Mu ni wise hansi zishente zangu ni kuzaka zikando ahulku, umo mwete ni vinke vuhenke bwangu vonse ni zimwi zimera zete ni sinze.
19 and I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much good things laid by for many years; repose thyself, eat, drink, be merry.
Muni wambe ku luhuho lwangu, “luhuho, wina zilyo zingi zisizitwe zonso seberise zirimo zingi. Pumule hande, lye, nwe, unsese.”
20 But God said to him, Fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee; and whose shall be what thou hast prepared?
Kono Ireza cha cho kwali, 'Chihole cho mukwame, masiku a nsunu luhuho lwako luhindiwa kwanko, mi nzintu ziwa lukisa, muzive zani?'
21 Thus is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.
China mwe kalire muntu yoli kunganyiza chifumu kwali mi kafumite havusu bwe Ireza.”
22 And he said to his disciples, For this cause I say unto you, Be not careful for life, what ye shall eat, nor for the body, what ye shall put on.
Jesu cha wamba kuva lutwana bakwe, “Cwale he nicho kwenu, kanji muivireri kuamana ni vuhalo bwenu - chizi chese mulye, kamba kuyana nizo mubiri wenu - chinzi chete muzwate.
23 The life is more than food, and the body than raiment.
Kakuti vuhalo bwina butokwa kuhita zilyo, mi muviri wina butokwa kuhita zizwato.
24 Consider the ravens, that they sow not nor reap; which have neither storehouse nor granary; and God feeds them. How much better are ye than the birds?
Mulemuhe ma ñwarara, kuti kava byali kamba kusiza. Kazina zivinko kamba zishete, kono Ireza uzilelra. Muvo vutokwa vule kuhita zizuni!
25 But which of you by being careful can add to his stature one cubit?
Mi jeni kwenu choku virera u wola kuyekeza i zuva kuvuhalo bwakwe?
26 If therefore ye cannot [do] even what is least, why are ye careful about the rest?
Cwale haiva kamu oli kupanga nanga nti chitu chinini, chinzi hamu virera kuamana ni nzonse?
27 Consider the lilies how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; but I say unto you, Not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed as one of these.
Mulemuhe tuyanga yanga mutumenena - zikula vule. Kazi sevezi, kamba kuhosa. Kono ni cho kwenu, nanga Salumoni mwi kanya yakwe kenba aba zwatikiwa uvu ji limwi.
28 But if God thus clothe the grass, which to-day is in the field and to-morrow is cast into [the] oven, how much rather you, O ye of little faith?
Haiva Iraza uzwatika lyani lyomukanda, lina kwateni nsunu, mi inzona lizindirwa muhisa, inwe cwale mwa mizwatike vule, mawe inwe ve tumero inini!
29 And ye, seek not what ye shall eat or what ye shall drink, and be not in anxiety;
Kanji mungani zete mulye kamba zete munwe kanji mu vireri.
30 for all these things do the nations of the world seek after, and your Father knows that ye have need of these things;
Kakuli inkanda zonse ze fasi bangana inzi nzintu, mi Ishenu wizi kuti musaka inzi zintu.
31 but seek his kingdom, and [all] these things shall be added to you.
Kono musake mubuso wakwe, mi inzi zintu ka muziyekerezwe.
32 Fear not, little flock, for it has been the good pleasure of your Father to give you the kingdom.
Kanji mutiyi, tumberere tunini, kakuli i shenu i sangitwe kumiha Muvuso.
33 Sell what ye possess and give alms; make to yourselves purses which do not grow old, a treasure which does not fail in the heavens, where thief does not draw near nor moth destroy.
Mu uze maluwo enu mi muhe kuva shevete. Muli pangire ziviko zisa woli kusupala - Vufumu mwi wulu muzisa mani, uko kusengiri vasa mi Ifulapepe kuzisa shinyi.
34 For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be.
Kakuti kwina chifumu chenu, uko ni inkulo yenu kwete ive nayo.
35 Let your loins be girded about, and lamps burning;
Imunda zenu zisuminwe muma tunga mi malambi enu a zwirenhavusu ni kumbukuka,
36 and ye like men who wait their own lord whenever he may leave the wedding, that when he comes and knocks, they may open to him immediately.
mi muswane uvu vantu bakwete kulola muyendisi wavo chakavola kumukiti we senso, iri kuti cha keza ni kwiza kungongo ta, yahaho bamwi yalwira mulyango.
37 Blessed are those bondmen whom the lord [on] coming shall find watching; verily I say unto you, that he will gird himself and make them recline at table, and coming up will serve them.
Imbuyoti yaba bahikana, vesana keza wanikize niva lindire chakeza. Chama niti ni miwambire kuti keza nsumine ziwato zakwe zile mumunda che tunga, ni kuve kalika hasi kuzilyo, mi mwakeze nikwiza kuva haza.
38 And if he come in the second watch, and come in the third watch, and find [them] thus, blessed are those [bondmen].
Haiva muyendisi ukeza malunga siku, kamba kalya butatu bwe nako, ni kwiza kuva wana vali tukise, Imbuyoti zavo vahikana.
39 But this know, that if the master of the house had known in what hour the thief was coming, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be dug through.
Konohape mwizive inchi, kuti haiva muyendisi we nzuvo ave zivite inako iyo musa avali kukeza, nasana a va siyiriri inzuvo yakwe ni iñatulwa.
40 And ye therefore, be ye ready, for in the hour in which ye do not think [it], the Son of man comes.
Mulitukiseze nanwe vulyo, kakuti kamwizi inako iyo mwana o Muntu sana keze.”
41 And Peter said to him, Lord, sayest thou this parable to us, or also to all?
Pitorosi chati, “Simwine, uwambira iyi nguli kwetu fera, kamba niku vantu vonse?”
42 And the Lord said, Who then is the faithful and prudent steward, whom his lord will set over his household, to give the measure of corn in season?
Mi Simwine chati, “Njeni he you sepahala ni kutalifa muyendisi simwine yata vike vuyendisi he wulu lya va hikana kuti a kuva hanga zilyo che nako iswanera?
43 Blessed is that bondman whom his lord [on] coming shall find doing thus;
Ufuyaulitwe uzo muhikana, uzo muyendisi wakwe keza wane napanga izo hakeza.
44 verily I say unto you, that he will set him over all that he has.
Cheniti niwamba kwenu kamuvike vuyendisi bwe luwo lyakwe.
45 But if that bondman should say in his heart, My lord delays to come, and begin to beat the menservants and the maidservants, and to eat and to drink and to be drunken,
Kono haiva uzo muhikana nali wambnira mwinkulo ya kwe, 'Simwine wangu unlyeha kuku vola; mi utanga ku mbupola bahikana vava kwame ni ve chanakazi Vahikana, ni kulya ni nwa, ni kukolwa,
46 the lord of that bondman shall come in a day when he does not expect it, and in an hour he knows not of, and shall cut him in two and appoint his portion with the unbelievers.
simwine wozuna mu hikana kakeze mwizuba lyasa mulindire, ni mwi nako yasenzi mi kamu konsole mutu vindivindi nikumu tumina kuchi vaka chimwi navana vasasepahali.
47 But that bondman who knew his own lord's will, and had not prepared [himself] nor done his will, shall be beaten with many [stripes];
Zuna muhikana, hace zivite mihupulo ya simwine wakwe, mi kena ava lukise kamba kuyendereza mwa sakira, kakaviwe cha mafaindi mangi.
48 but he who knew [it] not, and did things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few. And to every one to whom much has been given, much shall be required from him; and to whom [men] have committed much, they will ask from him the more.
Kono uzo yasana a bezivite, kakaviwe chama faindi mache. Zumwi ni zumwi kwali kuherwe a hulu, zingi kazi sakahane kwali, mi kwali vava sepahali ahulu, kava vuze zingi ahulu kwali.
49 I have come to cast a fire on the earth; and what will I if already it has been kindled?
Ni vakezi kuzindira muliro mwi kanda, mi muni sangirwa kuti kamba ciwuva mbukulwa kale.
50 But I have a baptism to be baptised with, and how am I straitened until it shall have been accomplished!
Kono nina i nkolovezo ini swanera kukolovezwa chayo, mi kaini kalikite hande konji chiya lizuziriza!
51 Think ye that I have come to give peace in the earth? Nay, I say to you, but rather division:
Muhupula kuti ni va kezi kuleta inkozo mwi ikanda? Ne, Ni ki wambira, kono niva leti ikauhano.
52 for from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided; three shall be divided against two, and two against three:
Cwale kuzwa hanu kuya kuvusu, mukube mwizuvo nyonke inkauhano zeyanza lyonke - vantu vo tatwe kulyisa vovere, vantu vo vere kulwisa vantu vo tatwe.
53 father against son, and son against father; mother against daughter, and daughter against mother; a mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
Kava kauhane mushemi we chikwame kulwisa mwana kwe we chiswisu, ni mwana we chiswisu kulwisa isi; mushemi we chanakazi kulwisa mwanakwe we chikazana, ni mwana kazana kulwisa nyina; mukwenyani we chanakazi kulwisa mukwenyana kwe we chikazana, ni mukwenyani we chikazana kulwisa mukwenyanakwe we chanakazi.”
54 And he said also to the crowds, When ye see a cloud rising out of the west, straightway ye say, A shower is coming; and so it happens.
Jesu avali kuwamba ni kuchisi bulyo,”Hamubona i kope lizimana kubwimino, yahaho mu wamba, 'I vula ikezite; mi iza kuva bulyo.
55 And when [ye see] the south wind blow, ye say, There will be heat; and it happens.
Mi haiva luhuho lo kwiyaza lye chimonso ni hunga, mu wamba, 'Mukuhise a hulu nsunu; mi kwiza kuva vulyo.
56 Hypocrites, ye know how to judge of the appearance of the earth and of the heaven; how [is it then that] ye do not discern this time?
Balihere, mwinzi kutoloka mayemo e kanda ni e wulu, linu vule hape hamusezi muku tolokerwa i nako ya hanu?
57 And why even of yourselves judge ye not what is right?
Chinzi hamusa atuli zina hande kwenu?
58 For as thou goest with thine adverse party before a magistrate, strive in the way to be reconciled with him, lest he drag thee away to the judge, and the judge shall deliver thee to the officer, and the officer cast thee into prison.
Kakuli haiva no yenda niyo ku zekisa kumu atuli, mu zira ulike ahulu kuti mumane indava naye, iri kuli kanji naka kutambinki kumu atuli, mi kuti muatuli kanji a kaku tambiki kumu yendisi, mi munyendisi kanji a kakusoheri mwi ntorongo.
59 I say unto thee, Thou shalt in no wise come out thence until thou hast paid the very last mite.
Ni wamba kwenu, kasana ko zwe mwateni konji hete no lihire ishereñi yama manimani yo kwete.”
