Luke 21
1 Looking around, Jesus watched rich people putting their gifts into the collection box.
Jesu wakalanga wabona balumi bavubi kabalokubikka zipo munkomo yakubikkila mali.
2 He also saw a very poor widow put in two small coins.
Wakabona umwi muka mufu ufwaba kalokubikka tunini tobile.
3 “I tell you the truth,” he said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the rest together.
Lino wakati, “Kasimpe ndamba obu kulindunywe, oyu muchete mukamufu wapa kwinda boonse.
4 All of them gave from their wealth what they had, but she gave from her poverty all she had to live on.”
Boonse bapa zipo mukwindilila mukuvula kwazyo. Pesi mukamufu, kwinda buchete bwakwe, wabikka toonse twayelede kupona ato”.
5 Some of those there were talking about the Temple, its fine stonework and the beautiful gifts that had been donated. But Jesus said,
Abamwi bakali kwambula achikombelo, yasamika mabwe mabotu azituuzyo, wakamba,
6 “Regarding these things you're looking at… The time is coming when not one stone will be left on another; everything will be destroyed!”
“kulizezi zintu nzimubwene, izuba liyosika nikuyochala katachikwe bbwe lilatala abbwe nyina liyochala kalitawidide ansi.”
7 “Teacher, when will this happen?” they asked him. “What will be the sign that these things are about to happen?”
Bamumuzya bati, “Muyisi, ndilili niziyochitika zintu ezi?” Alubo nchiinzi chiyoba chitondezyo chakuti zintu ezi zyaamba kuchitika?”
8 “Make sure you're not deceived,” Jesus warned them. “Many people will come claiming to be me, saying, ‘Here I am!’ and, ‘The time has come!’ but don't follow them.
Jesu wakasandula, “Amuchenjele kuti muteenwi. Nkambo bayosika muzina lyangu kabati 'ndime oyoo'a 'chindi chaba afwifwi' mutakabatobeli.
9 When you hear of wars and revolutions, don't be frightened, because these things have to happen first, but the end won't come immediately.
Mwakumvwa nkondo ampyompyongano mutakayowi, nkambo zintu ezi zyelede kuchitikana kusanguna, pele mamanino takayochitika kufwambana”.
10 Nation will fight nation, and kingdom will fight kingdom,” he told them.
Mpawo wakati kulimbabo, “Chisi chiyolwana achisi nyina.
11 “There will be severe earthquakes, famines, and epidemic diseases in many lands, and extraordinary signs in the sky that are terrifying.
Kuyooba mizuzumino mipati munyika, anzala mumasena asiyenesiyene azilwazi, kuyoba ziyosya azitondeezyo zipati zizwa kujulu.
12 But before all this, they will seize you and persecute you. They will drag you before synagogues and throw you into prison, and put you on trial before kings and governors on account of me.
Pesi kakutanachitika ezi zintu, bayobikka manza abo alindinywe akumupenzya, bamwabe muzikombelo amuntolongo, akumweeta kunembo lyabami abendelezi nkambo kazina lyangu.
13 But this will provide you an opportunity to speak on my behalf before them.
Kuyoba bukamboni kulindinywe.
14 So make up your mind beforehand not to worry about how to defend yourselves,
Nkambo kako amukanze mumyoyo yanu kuteezeezya makani ngimuyowamba,
15 for I will give you words of wisdom that your enemies won't be able to dispute or contradict.
nkambo ndime usikamupe majwi abusongo kuti boonse basinkondo nyokwe bakachilwe kukaka akukazya.
16 You will be betrayed even by your parents, brothers, relatives, and friends, and they will kill some of you.
Pele muyozipegwa atala abazyali, bakulana, nzubo, abenzuma alimwi bayobikwa bamwi bana mulufu.
17 Everyone will hate you because of me.
Muyosulwa moonse nkambo kazina lyangu.
18 But not a single hair of your head will be lost.
Pele takukoyooba kasusu kakumitwe yanu kayooloba.
19 By standing firm you will gain your lives.
Kumakatazyo muyoobujana bumi bwanu.
20 However, when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then you know that its destruction is near.
“Nimwakubona Jelusalema yazyungulukwa ampi, lino muyoziba kuti kusaalwa kwabo kwaba afwifwi.
21 Those who are in Judea should run away to the mountains, and those who are in Jerusalem should leave, and those who are the countryside shouldn't enter the city.
Lino abo bali muJudiya abachijile mumalundu, alubo bali mudolopo abazwe, abo alabo bali anze achisi tabelede kunjila mudolopo.
22 For these are days of punishment, fulfilling all that's written.
Nkambo aya mazuba akubwedzya chibi, kuti zintu zyoonse zilembedwe ziyoozuzikizigwe.
23 How hard it will be for those who are pregnant or nursing babies at that time! For terrible trouble is coming on the land and punishment against this people.
Mawee kuli babo bamisi akulibabo banyonsya kumazuba ayo! Nkambo kuyoba mapenzi mapati munyika, ayendelana abantu aba.
24 They will be killed by the sword and taken away as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trodden down by the foreign nations until their time is fulfilled.
Bayojegwa apanga, bayootolwa baange kuzisi zyoonse a Jelusalemu uyoozunganisigwa abamasi kusikila chindi chabamasi chizulile.
25 There will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars, and on the earth the nations will be in distress, confused by the sea's rolling and crashing.
Kuyooba zitondeezyo kuzuba, akumwezi, amunyenyezi. Amunyika, nyika iyoba akakukatazigwa nkambo kakuvuuma kwamayuwe amulwizi.
26 People will be faint from fear, terrified about what is happening to the world, for the powers of heaven will be shaken.
Kuyoba bantu bayoomana nguzu akuyowa akuyeya zintu zitasikile nyika. Nkambo nguzu zyakujulu ziyozunganisigwa.
27 Then they'll see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
Mpawo bayomubona Mwana mulombe wa Muntu kaboola mujoba munguzu amubulemu bupati.
28 But when these things happen, stand up and look up, because you will soon be saved.”
Pele zintu ezi zyakutalika kuchitika, amunyampuke akulungumika mitwe yanu, nkambo lwangunuko lwanu lwaba afwifwi”.
29 Then he told them this story as an illustration. “Look at the fig tree, or any other kind of tree.
Jesu wakabambila muzikozyano, “Mulange mukuyu amasamu onse.
30 When you see new leaves appear, you don't need to be told that summer is near.
Lino na asyuuka ndelema, anga mwabona lwanu akuziba mayinza aba afwifwi.
31 In the same way, when you see these things happening, you don't need to be told that God's kingdom is near.
Lino aboobo, na mwabona zintu ezi kazichitika, muyoziba kuti bwami bwaLeza bwaba afwifwi.
32 I tell you the truth, this generation won't come to an end before all this happens.
Kasimpe ndamwambila obu nywe, olu lunyungu talukayindi mane zintu ezi zikachitike.
33 Heaven and earth will come to an end, but my word will not.
Ijulu anyika ziyoyinda, pele ijwi lyangu talikoyomana pe.
34 Watch out that you don't become distracted by partying or getting drunk or by the worries of this life, so that this day catches you by surprise.
Pesi amuswilile lwanu, kuti myoyo yanu italemenwi akwindilizya kunywa akukolwa akulipenzya abuumi, azuba elyo talikoyomujana kufwambana pe
35 For this day will come upon everyone who lives on the face of the earth.
mbuli kakole. Nkambo chiyosikila kuli boonse bapona kubusyu bwanyika yoonse.
36 Always keep watch and pray, so that you may be able to escape all that will happen and stand before the Son of man.”
Pesi amulibambile chindi choonse, mukombe kuti mube anguzu akuchija zintu ezi zitachitike, akwiima kunembo lya Mwana mulombe wa Muntu”.
37 Every day Jesus taught in the Temple, and every evening he went and stayed on the Mount of Olives.
Lino kuzwa kuseni kusikila goko wakali kuyiisya muzikombelo, munsi wakali kuzwa anze akuyokkala kutegwa Oliveti.
38 All the people came early in the morning to listen to him in the Temple.
Bantu boonse balikusika kuseni kuzomuswilizya mutempele.
