Luke 12
1 In the meane time, there gathered together an innumerable multitude of people, so that they trode one another: and he began to say vnto his disciples first, Take heede to your selues of the leauen of the Pharises, which is hypocrisie.
Muleecho chiindi, zyuulu zyabantu zyiingi nizyakabungana, bakasyankana akulyatana, wakasanguna kuti kuli basikwiiya bakwe chakusanguna, “Amuchenjelele busweezyo bwaba Falisi, kakuli kuupawupa.
2 For there is nothing couered, that shall not bee reueiled: neither hidde, that shall not be knowen.
Pesi taakwe chivumbidwe, chitakabule kuyubununwa, alimwi taakwe chisisidwe, chitakabule kuzibinkana.
3 Wherefore whatsoeuer yee haue spoken in darkenesse, it shall be heard in the light: and that which ye haue spoken in the eare, in secret places, shall be preached on the houses.
Aboobo zyoonse nzimuyowamba mumudima ziyoomvwigwa mumumuni, azeezyo nzimwakavwiyavwiya mumatwi kamuli mumaanda amukati ziyoompololwa atala atululi
4 And I say vnto you, my friendes, be not afraide of them that kill the bodie, and after that are not able to doe any more.
Ndati kulindinywe bazolani bangu, tamubayoowi pe aabo bajaya mubili, musule azeezyo tabachikwe chimbi chakuchita.
5 But I wil forewarne you, who ye shall feare: feare him which after hee hath killed, hath power to cast into hell: yea, I say vnto you, him feare. (Geenna g1067)
Pesi ndilamwaambila aatala akuti ngwani ngumunga mulayoowa. Amuyoowe ooyo, uunga naajaya, ulaanguzu zyakuwaala mumulilo. Iyii, ndati kulindinye, amuyoowe nguwe ooyo. (Geenna g1067)
6 Are not fiue sparowes bought for two farthings, and yet not one of them is forgotten before God?
Teensi tuyuni tusanu tulawuzigwa atukobili tuniini tubili na?
7 Yea, and all the heares of your head are nombred: feare not therefore: yee are more of value then many sparowes.
Pesi tatulubwi pe kunembo lya Leza. Pesi nikuba masusu eenu alaamyeelwe woonse. Mutayoowi. Muli aabulemu kwiinda bayuni biingi.
8 Also I say vnto you, Whosoeuer shall confesse mee before men, him shall the Sonne of man confesse also before the Angels of God.
Ndati kulindinywe, kufumbwa uundizumina kunembo lyabantu, Mwana wa Muntu uyoomuzumina kunembo lyabangelo ba Leza,
9 But hee that shall denie mee before men, shall be denied before the Angels of God.
pesi ooyo uundikaka kunembo lyabantu, uyookakwa kunembo lyabangelo ba Leza.
10 And whosoeuer shall speake a woorde against the Sonne of man, it shall be forgiuen him: but vnto him, that shall blaspheme ye holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiuen.
Kufumbwa uyoowambula majwi mabi aatala a Mwana wa Muntu, uyoolekelelwa, pesi ooyo usampawula Miuuya Uusalala, taakwe natakalekelelwe pe.
11 And when they shall bring you vnto the Synagogues, and vnto the rulers and Princes, take no thought howe, or what thing ye shall answere, or what yee shall speake.
Nibatakamweete kunembo lya Zikombelo, babetesi, abasimilawu, tamukalikataazyi kuti muyowaambuula biyeni mukuli lwanina, nakuti muyotyeni,
12 For the holy Ghost shall teache you in the same houre, what yee ought to say.
nkaambo Muuya Uusalala uyomuyiisya muli nchicheecho chiindi zyakwaamba.”
13 And one of the companie said vnto him, Master, bidde my brother deuide the inheritance with me.
Mpawo umwi wakali munkamu yabantu wakoompolola wati, “Muyiisyi, ambila mwanakesu kuti andaabile ambeno lukono.”
14 And he said vnto him, Man, who made me a iudge, or a deuider ouer you?
Jesu wakasandula wati “Yoo mwalumi, ngwani wakandinanika kuba mubetesi na sing'enda akati kenu?”
15 Wherefore he said vnto them, Take heede, and beware of couetousnesse: for though a man haue abundance, yet his life standeth not in his riches.
Mpawo wakati kulimbabo, “Amulangisisye eezyo zintu nzimulibambila kuzwa kubulyabi, nkaambo buumi bwamuntu tabulangwi kwiinda muzintu nzyaleezyo.”
16 And he put foorth a parable vnto them, saying, The grounde of a certaine riche man brought foorth fruites plenteously.
Mpawo Jesu wakabaambila chikozyanisyo, kati, “Muunda wamuntu muvubi wakali abutebuuzi bwiingi,
17 Therefore he thought with himselfe, saying, What shall I doe, because I haue no roume, where I may lay vp my fruites?
wakayeeya mumoyo wakwe, wati, 'Ndilachita biyeni, nkaambo nsikwe katuula kakubambila zilyo zyangu?'
18 And he said, This wil I do, I wil pul downe my barnes, and builde greater, and therein will I gather all my fruites, and my goods.
Wakati, 'Eezi nyesichite. Ndilakolomona tutuula twangu ndiyake tumbi tupati, oomo mwesizobambile zilyo zyangu azimwi zintu.
19 And I wil say to my soule, Soule, thou hast much goods laide vp for many yeeres: liue at ease, eate, drinke and take thy pastime.
Mpawo ndiyoti kumuuya wangu, “Muuya waba aazintu zyiingi zibambidwe kwamyaaka myiingi. Lyookezye kabotu, lya, nywa, upakale.”
20 But God said vnto him, O foole, this night wil they fetch away thy soule from thee: then whose shall those things be which thou hast prouided?
Pesi Leza wakati kuli nguwe, 'Yoomwaalumi mufubafuba, sunu muuya wako ulayandikana, zintu nzwabamba ziyooba zyani?'
21 So is he that gathereth riches to himselfe, and is not riche in God.
Mbabede muntu uulibambila buvubi pesi katavubide kuli Leza.”
22 And he spake vnto his disciples, Therefore I say vnto you, Take no thought for your life, what yee shall eate: neither for your body, what yee shall put on.
Jesu wakati kuli basikwiiya bakwe, “Aboobo ntati kulindinywe, tamulikataazyi nkaambo kabuumi - kuti muyoolya nzi, na amubili wanu - kuti muyoozwaatayi.
23 The life is more then meate: and the body more then the raiment.
Nkaambo buumi bwiinda kulya, alimwi mubili wiinda zizwaato.
24 Consider the rauens: for they neither sowe nor reape: which neither haue storehouse nor barne, and yet God feedeth them: how much more are yee better then foules?
Amulange bayuni, tababyali na kutebula. Tabakwe tutuula, pesi Leza ulabapa chakulya. Mulekede bupati loko nywebo kwiinda bayuni!
25 And which of you with taking thought, can adde to his stature one cubite?
Ngwani akati kenu uunga naalikataazya wayungizya mazuba akupona kubuumi bwakwe?
26 If yee then bee not able to doe the least thing, why take yee thought for the remnant?
Na kotakonzyi kuchita eecho chitu chinini, nkaambo nzi nimulikataazya azimwi zyoonse?
27 Consider the lilies howe they growe: they labour not, neither spin they: yet I say vnto you, that Salomon himselfe in all his royaltie was not clothed like one of these.
Amulange masokwe - alakomena. Taabeleki, na kulikataazya. Pesi nadti kulindinywe, nansya Solomoni mubulemu bwakwe boonse taakwe nakali wazwaata kwiinda aawa.
28 If then God so clothe the grasse which is to day in the field, and to morowe is cast into the ouen, howe much more will he clothe you, O yee of litle faith?
Na Leza kazwaatika masokwe aalimumuunda, aanga sunu mpaali, juunza asowelwa mumulilo, ulamuzwaatika bwiingi butanali nywebo, Nozyalane lyalusyomo luniini!
29 Therefore aske not what yee shall eate, or what ye shall drinke, neither hag you in suspense.
Tamulaanguuli nchimutalye na nchimutanywe, alimwi tamulikataazyi.
30 For all such things the people of the world seeke for: and your Father knoweth that ye haue neede of these things.
Nkaambo zisi zyoonsye zyaanyika zilanguula zintu eezi, alimwi Wuso ulizi kuti mulaziyanda zintu eezi.
31 But rather seeke ye after the kingdome of God, and all these things shalbe cast vpon you.
Pesi amuyandule bwami bwakwe, mpawo eezi zintu ziyopegwa kulindinywe.
32 Feare not, litle flocke: for it is your Fathers pleasure, to giue you the kingdome.
Mutayoowi, nkaambo Wuso uulikujulu ulabotelwa kumupa bwami.
33 Sell that ye haue, and giue almes: make you bagges, which waxe not old, a treasure that can neuer faile in heauen, where no theefe commeth, neither mothe corrupteth.
Amuuzye zyoonse zimulazyo mupe kubachete. Amulichitile nkomwe zitadeluki pe - buvubi bwakumajulu butamani, kutasiki basikubba afwiifwi, alimwi kutaligwi munanze.
34 For where your treasure is, there will your hearts be also.
Nkaambo ooko kuli buvubi bwako, moyo wako nkuubede.
35 Let your loynes be gird about and your lights burning,
Amwaange zizwaato zyenu alukumba muchikungu, muyasye malampi eenu akkale kayaka,
36 And ye your selues like vnto men that waite for their master, when he will returne from the wedding, that when he commeth and knocketh, they may open vnto him immediatly.
mube mbuli bantu bayandula mwami wabo, naboola kuzwa kupobwe lyalukwatano, kuchitila kuti nasika kakonkomona balafwambaana kumujulila.
37 Blessed are those seruants, whom the Lord when he commeth shall finde waking: verely I say vnto you, he will girde himselfe about, and make them to sit downe at table, and will come forth, and serue them.
Bali longezezegwe aabo belanda, bayojanika kaba bbwazwide naayosika mwami wabo. Nchobeni ndamwaambila kuti uyowanga nsasiko yakwe ndamfu muchikungu alukumba, mpawo uyobakkazika kukulya, mpawo uyoosika we azobakutawukile.
38 And if he come in the seconde watch, or come in the third watch, and shall finde them so, blessed are those seruants.
Na mwami azosike mubusiku bwakulinda bwabili, na bwatatu, azobajane kabalindide, balilongezezegwe balanda aabo.
39 Nowe vnderstand this, that if the good man of the house had knowen at what houre the theefe would haue come, he would haue watched, and would not haue suffered his house to be digged through.
Aatala azeezi zyoonse, kansinga mwani ng'anda walizi buzuba mbwasika sikubba, taalikunoleka ng'anda yakwe kuti inyonyoonwe pe.
40 Be ye also prepared therefore: for the Sonne of man will come at an houre when ye thinke not.
Amulibambile anywebo, nkaambo tamulizi wola ndasika Mwana wa Muntu.”
41 Then Peter saide vnto him, Master, tellest thou this parable vnto vs, or euen to all?
Pita wakati, “Mwami, ulikwaamba chikozyanisyo eechi kulindiswe atulike na kumuntu woonse?”
42 And the Lord saide, Who is a faithfull steward and wise, whom the master shall make ruler ouer his householde, to giue them their portion of meate in season?
Mwami wakati, “Ngwani mpo mweendelezi musongo awusyomekede ooyo mweendelezi wakwe ngwazobika kubalanda bakwe kuti abaabile chabo chimpanzi chakulyamuchiindi cheelede?
43 Blessed is that seruant, whom his master when he commeth, shall finde so doing.
Ulilongezezegwe ooyo mulanda uyoojanika kachita oobo nayooboola mulanda wakwe.
44 Of a trueth I say vnto you, that he wil make him ruler ouer all that he hath.
Nchobeni ndamwaambila kuti uyoomupa bweendelezi kuzintu zyakwe zyoonse.
45 But if that seruant say in his heart, My master doeth deferre his comming, and ginne to smite the seruants, and maydens, and to eate, and drinke, and to be drunken,
Pesi ooyo mulanda uti mumoyo wakwe, 'Mwani wangu wachedwa kuboola,' mpawo asangune kuuma balanda baalumi abanakazi, asangune kulya akunywa mpawo akolwe,
46 The master of that seruant will come in a day when he thinketh not, and at an houre when he is not ware of, and will cut him off, and giue him his portion with the vnbeleeuers.
mwami wayooyo mulanda uzoosika buzuba mbwatalangilide pe, amuwola ndyatayeeleli pe, uyoomugonkoola mpawo akamubikke kubusena bwabantu batasyomekede.
47 And that seruant that knewe his masters will, and prepared not himselfe, neither did according to his will, shalbe beaten with many stripes.
Ooyo mulanda, kali walimuzi mwami wakwe, alimwi katachitide na kumba mbuli mbayanda, uyoowumwa mfayindi nyiingi.
48 But he that knewe it not, and yet did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with fewe stripes: for vnto whomsoeuer much is giuen, of him shalbe much required, and to whom men much commit, the more of him will they aske.
Pesi ooyo wakatezi, mpawo wachita zintu zyuumya, uyowumwa mfayindi nche. Woonse uupegwa zyiingi unolangilwa kupa zyiingi, ayooyo uusyomwa azyiingi, nzyiingi nzibayookumbila kuzwa kulinguwe.
49 I am come to put fire on the earth, and what is my desire, if it be already kindled?
Ndakasika kuzoowala mulilo aanyika, alimwi ndalikuyanda kut kansiinga zyachitika.
50 Notwithstanding I must be baptized with a baptisme, and how am I grieued, till it be ended?
Pesi ndili aalubbabbatgizyo ndweelede ku bbabbatizigwa aalo, amachise ngelaawo mane kukamane!
51 Thinke ye that I am come to giue peace on earth? I tell you, nay, but rather debate.
Muyeeya kuti ndakasika kuzoyeta luumuno na anyika? Pepe, ndamwaambila, pesi kwaanzana.
52 For from hencefoorth there shall be fiue in one house deuided, three against two, and two against three.
Nkaambo kuzwa lino kuyooba balimusanu mung'anda yomwe banzeene - batatu kabatamvwanani ababili, ababili kabatamvwanani abatatu.
53 The father shalbe deuided against ye sonne, and the sonne against the father: the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother: the mother in lawe against her daughter in lawe, and the daughter in lawe against her mother in lawe.
Banowanzeene, wisi katamvwanani amwana mulombe, amwana mulombe katamvwanani awisi; banyina kabatamvwanani amwana musimbi, amwana musimbi katamvwanani abanyina; banyianazyala kabatamvwanani amuka mwana, amukamwana katamvwanani abanyinazyala.”
54 Then said he to the people, When ye see a cloude rise out of the West, straightway ye say, A shower commeth: and so it is.
Jesu wakaambula lubo kumakamu, “Na mwabona joba kalisimpa kububbila, mulafwaambana kwaamba kuti 'Yaamba kuwa mvula,' mpawo nga zyachitika.
55 And when ye see the South winde blowe, ye say, that it wilbe hoate: and it commeth to passe.
Mpawo kwawunga guwo lizwida kumunsanza ngamwati sunu linoopya zuba,' mpawo zyachitika.
56 Hypocrites, ye can discerne the face of the earth, and of the skie: but why discerne ye not this time?
Basikuupawupa, mulikwizi kumvwisisisya chiimo chanyika ajulu, pesi nkaambo nzi nimutakonzyi kumvwisisisya chiimo chachiindi chiliko lino?
57 Yea, and why iudge ye not of your selues what is right?
Nkaambo nzi nimutakonzyi kulibonena zilikabotu amulike?
58 While thou goest with thine aduersarie to the ruler, as thou art in the way, giue diligence in the way, that thou mayest be deliuered from him, least he drawe thee to the iudge, and the iudge deliuer thee to the iayler, and the iayler cast thee into prison.
Nkaambo aawo nimuya kumutongi asinkondonyokwe, munzila amweezye kwaambula kabotu mumvwanane kuchitila kuti we tazokutoli kumubetesi, akuchitila kuti mubetesi atakakubiki mumaanza akapokola, mpawo kapokola atakakubiki muntolongo.
59 I tell thee, thou shalt not depart thence, till thou hast payed the vtmost mite.
Ndati kulindinywe, taakwe notakazwe pe kuyosikila ukaman kubbadala mali yoonse iyandikana.”
