Luke 18
1 And then He told them a parable, the point being that one needs to always pray and not lose heart,
Hange wekaaila mpyani netakewe kulompa daima, alekekuta etamaa.
2 saying: “There was a judge in a certain town who did not fear God nor regard man.
Akamitambula, “Aokole mulamuli pakesale fulani, hange shanga aumwogopile Itunda nukuaheshimu eantu.
3 But there was a widow in that town, and she kept coming to him, saying, ‘Get justice for me from my adversary.’
Aukole mujane pakesale nekanso, nung'wenso aewimuhanga nkua yeedu, nukutambula, “Nzaelye mpate ehakiane numupenzani wane.
4 And for a while he refused; but afterward he said to himself, ‘Even though I don't fear God nor regard man,
Kumatungo edu shangaaukole tayali kumusaidila, lakini baada amatungo akatambula munkolo akwe, ataitule unene shanganumwogopile Itunda ang'wi kumuheshimu umuntu,
5 yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will defend her, so that her endless coming doesn't wear me out!’”
lakini kunsoko umujane uyu ukunsumbula nukumusaidela wapate ehaki akwe, waleke kunkatalya kwa kunezela mala kwa mala.”
6 Then the Lord said: “Hear what the unjust judge said.
Kuite umukulu wekalunga, “Tegeelyi nautambue nuanso umulamuli nuanso nedhalimu.
7 And will not God get justice for His elect who are crying out to Him day and night, indeed being patient with them?
Ite Itunda shanga ukuleta ehaki kwateule akwe neakumukela mung'we nuutiku? Ite nuanso shaukiumelyane kung'wao?
8 I tell you that He will get justice for them quickly. However, when the Son of the Man comes, will He actually find the faith on the earth?”
Kumuila kina ukuleta ehaki kung'wa kwakukaya. Lakini ematungo nuzie ung'wana wang'wa Adamu, ite ukuuhangane uhueli muunkumbigulu?”
9 Then He told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised the rest:
Uu wikaaela mpyani eye kuantu baadhi hange niiona eenso kina akete ehaki nukuazalau eantu niangiza.
10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.
Antu abeele anankie kulongola mihekalu kusali: ung'wi Farisayo ung'wi mutoza ushuru.
11 The Pharisee stood and started praying to himself like this: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like all the rest—robbers, unjust, adulterers—or even like this tax collector.
Ufarisayo wekimeka nukulompa aya migulya lakwe ung'wenso, Itunda kusongeelya kunsoko unene singa kipyani neantu niangiza kuita eahegelya, antu nishanga aaminifu, agoolyi, ang'wi anga yuyu umutoza ushulu.
12 I fast twice a week; I tithe all that I get.’
Nefunga mahiku abeele kuwiki. Neepumya ezaka mumapato ane ehi nenepata.
13 The tax collector, staying a good ways off, did not even venture to look up to heaven, but started beating on his chest, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me a sinner!’
Lakini nuanso umutoza ushulu, aewimekile kule, shanga auwezilye ata ukuhumbula emiho akwe kilunde, akakuanga kekua kakwe wekalunga, Itunda ngoze unene nimunya milandu.”
14 I say to you that this one went back home justified rather than that one; because everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
Kumuila, umuntu nuanso ausukile kito akize uaeeigwe etai kukela umuya, kunsoko uyu nuikulya wisimigwa, lakini uyu nuisimya wehumbulwa.
15 Then they even started bringing their babies to Him, that He might touch them; but when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them.
Eantu amuletee eana ao neadabu, kuite ahume kuaamba, lakini eamanyisigwa akwe naaine nanso, akaagilya.
16 But Jesus summoned them and said: “Allow the little children to come to me, and do not hinder them; because the Kingdom of God is of such.
Lakini u Yesu wakaitanga kung'wakwe wekalunga, “Aleki ana nianino aze kitalane, wala lekikuagilya. Kundogoelyo utemi wang'wi Tunda waantu anga nianso.
17 I tell you assuredly, whoever does not receive the Kingdom of God the way a little child does will by no means enter it.”
Amini kumuila umuntu wehi nishanga ukusengelya utemi wang'wi Tunda anga ana neanino shangaukingela.”
18 A certain ruler asked Him, saying, “Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
Mutawa ung'wi aumukoilye, wikalunga, 'Mwalimu namuza ntende ule nuusale upanga wakale nakale? (aiōnios g166)
19 So Jesus said to him: “Why do you call me good? No one is good except one—God.
U Yesu wikamuila, “Kuneke ukunintanga numuza? Kutile umuntu numuza, ila Itunda wing'wene du.
20 You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not give false testimony, honor your father and your mother.’”
Umamanyilene emalago-lekakugoolya, lekakubulaga, lekakia, lekakutambula uteele, aheshimu ebaba ako numama ako.
21 And he said, “All these I have kept from my youth.”
Umutawala nuanso wekalunga, “Imakani ayaite numaambile kupuma uhumba wane.
22 Well upon hearing these things Jesus said to him, “You still lack one thing: sell all you have and distribute to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.”
U Yesu naewigule nanso wikaaila, “Upungukewe nekentu king'wi. Lazima ugulye ehi nukete aagawele awa niagila, nuewe ukutuwa nehazina kilunde kuite nzuu, uuntyate.
23 But when he heard this he became very sad, because he was extremely rich.
Lakini umugole naewigulye nanso wekapata kenyauai lukulu, kunsoko ae mugole lukulu.
24 When Jesus saw that he became sad, He said: “How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter the Kingdom of God!
Hange u Yesu wikamugoza nauambilwe ikenyauai ikulu wikalunga, 'Kuule neekatula ikaku eagole kingela ku utemi wang'wi Tunda!
25 It is actually easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God!”
Kundogoelyo itotu ikulu kungamea kukela mitundu la sindano, kukela eugole kingela utemi wang'wi Tunda.”
26 So the hearers said, “Who then can be saved?”
Awa naeigulye nanso, ekalunga, “Nyenyu gwa, nuekaweza kuokolewa?
27 And He said, “The things that are impossible with men are possible with God.”
U Yesu wikasukilya, “Imakani neshangaawezekanile kwa anadamu kung'wi Tunda awezekanile.”
28 Then Peter said, “Notice that we have left all and followed you!”
U Petelo wikalunga, “Uu usese kaleka kila ekentu nakakutyata uewe.”
29 So He said to them, “Assuredly I say to you, there is no one who has left house or parents or brothers or wife or children, for the sake of the Kingdom of God,
Hange u Yesu wikaaila, hueli kumuela kina kutile muntu nulekile enyumba ang'wi musungu, ang'wi munyandugu ang'wi aleli, ang'wi ana, kunsoko autemi wang'wi Tunda,
31 Then He took the Twelve aside and said to them: “Take note, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of the Man will be fulfilled:
Baada akuilingela awa nekumi na mbele, wikaaila, goza, kuunankela kulongoe ku Yerusalemu, ne makani ehi naandekilwe neanyakedagu kuhusu ung'wana wang'wa Adamu akukamileka.
32 He will be betrayed to the Gentiles, and will be mocked and insulted and spit upon,
Kundogoelyo ukuambwa mumekono amataifa akumudhiki nukumutenda ejeuri, nukumutyela emate.
33 and they will scourge and kill Him. And on the third day He will rise again.”
Baada akumukua iiboko akumubulaga nuluhiku lakatatu ukiiuka.”
34 But they understood none of these things; this saying was hidden from them, and they did not know what was being said.
Shanga ealengile imakani nanso, nulukani ulu ite aelupihilwe kung'wao, hange shangaaealengile emakani naatambuwe.
35 Then it happened, as He approached Jericho, that a certain blind man was sitting alongside the road begging.
Ikatula u Yesu naauhugie ku Yeriko, muntu ung'wi mupoku aewikie mumpelompelo abalabala aeukulompa ugunwa,
36 Hearing a crowd going by, he asked what it was.
naewigule umilundo wa antu ukeile akakolya ntuni niipumie.
37 So they told him that Jesus the Natsorean was passing by.
Eekamuila kina u Yesu nua Nazareti ukeile.
38 Well he shouted, saying, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”
Kuite umupoku wekalela kululi, wikalunga, Yesu, ng'wana wang'wa Daudi nehulumele.” Awa naakugenda ekamukenela umupoku nuanso, ekamuela kilaga.
39 Those who led the way started reproving him, to shut him up; but he kept calling out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
Uugwa awo naza atongee, akamukenda ite wakilage, kuiti u ng'wenso ai ukiile ikilo nangahu kitunta u luli Ee, ng'wana wang'wa Daudi unkendepe.
40 So Jesus stopped and ordered that he be brought to Him. When he got close He asked him, saying,
U Yesu wikimeka akaamulu umuntu nuanso waletwe pang'wa akwe. Hange umupoku nuanso nauhumbie, U Yesu wikamukolya,
41 “What do you want me to do for you?” So he said, “Lord, that I may see again!”
“Utakile nukutendele ntuni? Akalunga, “Bwana ntakile kuona.”
42 Then Jesus said to him: “See again! Your faith has made you well.”
U Yesu wikamuila, “Upegwe kuona. Uhueli wako wakukomya.”
43 And immediately he did! and he followed Him, glorifying God. And all who witnessed it gave praise to God.
Uu wekapegwa kuona, akamutyata u Yesu nukumukulya Itunda. Naaine ileile eantu ehi akamukulya Itunda.
