Luke 21
1 Looking around, Jesus watched rich people putting their gifts into the collection box.
Yesu walalangishisha, walabona bantu babile kababika bipo byabo mucakubikamo bipo byamali mu Ng'anda ya Lesa.
2 He also saw a very poor widow put in two small coins.
Walabona mutukashi mukalubingi kabikamo tumali tubili.
3 “I tell you the truth,” he said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the rest together.
Lino Yesu walambeti, “Ndamwambilinga cakubinga uyu mukalubingi wapenga labikimo bupe bwapitapo bambi bonse.
4 All of them gave from their wealth what they had, but she gave from her poverty all she had to live on.”
Pakwinga bonse aba, balafunyu pa mali angi ngobakute, nsombi neye mubupenshi bwakendi labikimo mali onse ngakutenga mung'anda yakendi.”
5 Some of those there were talking about the Temple, its fine stonework and the beautiful gifts that had been donated. But Jesus said,
Beshikwiya nabambi bali kabamba pamakani a Ng'anda ya Lesa eti balaibaka ne mabwe eshikuboneka cena, kayi nebipo byakutwala kuli Lesa. Lino Yesu walambeti,
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!”
“Ibi byonse mbyomulabononga, nicikashike cindi mpoti kukabule libwe nambi limo lyeti likashale palibwe linendi, mabwe onse nakamwayaulwe.”
7 “Teacher, when will this happen?” they asked him. “What will be the sign that these things are about to happen?”
Lino beshikwiya balepusha Yesu eti, “Bashikwiyisha, nomba ibi nibikenshike lilyoni? Kayi nitukenshibile kucani eti bintu byonse ibi bili pepi kwinshika?”
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.
Yesu walambeti, “Kamucenjelani kwambeti kutakaba muntu naba umo eti akamubepe. Pakwinga bantu bangi balakesanga mulina lyakame kabambeti, ‘Njame Mupulushi usa Walaiwa.’ Kayi eti, ‘cindi cilashiki.’ Mutakabakonkela.
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.
Mwakanyumfwa makani a nkondo kayi nebimfulunganya mubishi, mutakatina. Ibi bintu byelela kutanguna kwinshika, nomba nteko kwambeti mapwililisho a cishi alashiki.”
10 Nation will fight nation, and kingdom will fight kingdom,” he told them.
Lino Yesu walapitilisha kubambileti, “Bishi nibikalwane ne bishi nabimbi, nayoyo mishobo nikabukilane ne mishobo inabo.
11 “There will be severe earthquakes, famines, and epidemic diseases in many lands, and extraordinary signs in the sky that are terrifying.
Nikukabe mikukumo iyosha. Nikukabe nsala, malwashi ne lulanga mumisena yapusana pusana. Nikukenshike bintu byeshikuyosha nebingashilo byeshikukankamanisha kwilu.
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.
“Nsombi byonse ibi kabitana binshika, nimukasungwe nekupenshewa. Nimukatwalwe mumanda akupaililamo, nimukabetekwe nekubikwa mujele. Nimukatwalwe ku bami ne baleli pacebo ca njame.
13 But this will provide you an opportunity to speak on my behalf before them.
Ici nicikabe cindi caina ca kukambauka Mulumbe Waina.
14 So make up your mind beforehand not to worry about how to defend yourselves,
Lino mutakasukama mumyoyo kuyeyeti nitwambe cani pamulanduyu.
15 for I will give you words of wisdom that your enemies won't be able to dispute or contradict.
Pakwinga ninkamupe maswi a mano cakwambeti kuliya mulwani wenu eti akacikonshe kukana nambi kutoteka.
16 You will be betrayed even by your parents, brothers, relatives, and friends, and they will kill some of you.
Ne bamashali benu bonse, bamakwenu, beshikamukowa, nebanenu, nibakamutwale kubalwani benu, bambi pakati penu nibakamushine.
17 Everyone will hate you because of me.
Bantu bonse nibakamupate pacebo ca njame.
18 But not a single hair of your head will be lost.
Necikabeco kuliya mushishi nambi umo wenu weshi ukataike.
19 By standing firm you will gain your lives.
Mukalimbikile cakubula kubwelela munyuma nimukatambule buyumi bwenu.”
20 However, when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then you know that its destruction is near.
Mwakaboneti munshi wa Yelusalemu ulashingulukwa ne beshi nkondo, mukenshibeti konongeka kwawo kulashiki.
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 mu Yudeya bakafwambile kumilundu, abo beshi bakabenga mukati mu Yelusalemu bakapulemo, balikumabala kabatakengila mu Yelusalemu.
22 For these are days of punishment, fulfilling all that's written.
Pakwinga ici nicikabe cindi cacisubulo, kwambeti byonse bisa byalalembwa mumabala bikenshike.
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.
Batukashi beti bakabenga ne mabunda nibakabe mumapensho, nabo beshi bakabenga ne bana balayamwanga mumasubayo. Pakwinga nikukabe mapensho anene mucishici, kayi ne bukalu bwa Lesa nibukabe pabantu bamu Isilaeli.
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.
Nabambi nibakayaswe bibeshi kayi nibakamantwe busha kubantu bamishobo imbi. Lino Yelusalemu nikalyataulwe ne baswamashi kushikila cindi cabo cikapwe.
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.
“Kulakabanga bingashilo kulisuba ne kumwenshi ne kunyenyenshi. Pacishi pano, bantu nibakalisukame nekutina pakunyumfwa kuwota kwa lwenje ne mankape.
26 People will be faint from fear, terrified about what is happening to the world, for the powers of heaven will be shaken.
Bantu nibakawisuke ne buyowa pakulangilila bilandanga kwinshika mucishi ca panshi conse, pakwinga ngofu sha kwilu nishikatenkanishiwe.
27 Then they'll see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
Lino nibakabone ame nde Mwana Muntu kanjisa mumakumbi nengofu kayi nebulemu bunene.
28 But when these things happen, stand up and look up, because you will soon be saved.”
Lino bintu ibi byakatatika kwinshika, mukanyamuke nekwinuna mitwi yenu, pakwinga kulubulwa kwenu kulasenene pepi.”
29 Then he told them this story as an illustration. “Look at the fig tree, or any other kind of tree.
Lino Yesu walabambila mukoshano eti, “Kamulangani mukuyu nebitondo bimbi byonse.
30 When you see new leaves appear, you don't need to be told that summer is near.
Na mulabono matewu atatiki kusonsa mukute kwishibeti cilimo cili pepi.
31 In the same way, when you see these things happening, you don't need to be told that God's kingdom is near.
Copeleco nenjamwe mwakabona bintu ibi kabinshika mukenshibe kwambeti Bwami bwa Lesa buli pepi.
32 I tell you the truth, this generation won't come to an end before all this happens.
“Ndamwambilinga cakubingeti musemano uwu nteti ukapwe kufwa bintu ibi kabitana binshika.
33 Heaven and earth will come to an end, but my word will not.
Kwilu ne cishi ca panshi nibikapite, nsombi maswi akame nteshi akapwepo ngofu sobwe.”
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.
“Kamucenjelani kwambeti mutaba bantu basuni kulya ne kusekelela malyalya, nekukolwa kayi nekusukama pa bintu bya buyumi buno, pakwinga busuba ubo ngabwisa mwakutenshiba eti kose.
35 For this day will come upon everyone who lives on the face of the earth.
Nibukese bushikubo pabantu bonse bekala pa cishi capanshi
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.”
Ikalani mwalibambila lyonse, nekupaila cindi conse, kwambeti mube nengofu shakupuluka kubintu ibi byeshibikeshike, kwambeti mukemane pamenso pa Mwana Muntu.”
37 Every day Jesus taught in the Temple, and every evening he went and stayed on the Mount of Olives.
Masuba ayo, Yesu walikeyisha mu Ng'anda ya Lesa, nsombi mashiku lyonse walikuya ku mulundu wa maolifi akwikala.
38 All the people came early in the morning to listen to him in the Temple.
Lino mumenemene bantu bangi bali kabaya ku Ng'anda ya Lesa kuya kukutika kwiyisha kwakendi.
