Luke 15
1 Then resorted vnto him all the Publicanes and sinners, to heare him.
Lino beshikusonkesha musonko ne bantu nabambi balikubula kukonka Milawo, balesa kwambeti banyumfwe mulumbe wa Yesu.
2 Therefore the Pharises and Scribes murmured, saying, Hee receiueth sinners, and eateth with them.
Lino Bafalisi ne beshikwiyisha ba Milawo balatatika kudandaula ne kwambeti, “Uyu muntu latambulungeconi bantu babwipishi, nekulya nabo.”
3 Then spake hee this parable to them, saying,
Lino Yesu walabambila mukoshanyo eti,
4 What man of you hauing an hundreth sheepe, if hee lose one of them, doeth not leaue ninetie and nine in the wildernesse, and goe after that which is lost, vntill he finde it?
“Na umbi pali amwe kakute mbelele shili mwanda, lino imo itaika sena nkela kushiya mbelele shili makumi asanu ne ana ne shisanu ne shina ne kuya kulangaula kushikila wicana?
5 And when he hath found it, he laieth it on his shoulders with ioye.
Lino na layicana ukute kukondwa ne kwinyamuna pamafushi
6 And when he commeth home, he calleth together his friendes and neighbours, saying vnto them, Reioyce with mee: for I haue founde my sheepe which was lost.
nekwitwala kung'anda. Lino ukute kukuwa banendi ne beshikamukowa nekubambileti, katukondwani pamo pakwinga mbelele yakame yanga yataika ndaicana,
7 I say vnto you, that likewise ioy shall be in heauen for one sinner that conuerteth, more then for ninetie and nine iust men, which neede none amendment of life.
ndamwambilingeti, nakoyo kwilu nikukabe kukondwa pamuntu umo wabwipishi lasanduku kubwipishi, kupita bantu bali makumi asanu ne ana ne basanu ne bana balulama batasuni kusanduka.”
8 Either what woman hauing ten groates, if she lose one groate, doth not light a candle, and sweepe the house, and seeke diligently till shee finde it?
“Na mutukashi umbi nkakute mali amasilifa likumi, na imo itaika ngawinseconi? Sena nte ukute kumunika lampi nekupyanga mung'anda yakendi nekulangaula cena monse kushikila wicana?
9 And when shee hath found it, shee calleth her friendes, and neighbours, saying, Reioyce with me: for I haue found the groate which I had lost.
Alicana ukute kukuwa banendi ne beshikamukowa nekubambileti, ‘Katukondwani pamo pakwinga lyali lyakame lyanga lyataika ndalicana.’”
10 Likewise I say vnto you, there is ioy in the presence of the Angels of God, for one sinner that conuerteth.
Yesu walabambileti, “Ndamwambilinga ne kwilu encobakute kwinsa bangelo ba Lesa bakute kukondwa na muntu umo weshi kwinsa bwipishi lasanduku mubyaipa.”
11 He sayde moreouer, A certaine man had two sonnes.
Yesu kayi walabambileti, “Kwalikuba mutuloba naumbi walikukute bana batuloba babili.
12 And the yonger of them sayde to his father, Father, giue mee the portion of the goods that falleth to mee. So he deuided vnto them his substance.
Lino kanike bantu walabambila baisheti, ‘Ta, kamumpani buboni mbomwela kunjabilako ame mumpele limo.’ Nabo bameshabo balabayabanya buboni bwabo.
13 So not many daies after, when the yonger sonne had gathered all together, hee tooke his iourney into a farre countrey, and there hee wasted his goods with riotous liuing.
Kapatana papita masuba angi, kanike bantu uyo walolisha buboni bwakendi nekumanta mali kuya pabulwendo kucishi ca kutali uko nkwalaya akononga mali akendi onse mubwikalo bwaipa.
14 Nowe when hee had spent all, there arose a great dearth throughout that land, and he began to be in necessitie.
Mpwalapwisha mali akendi onse, mucishi umo mwalaba nsala inene, lino walatatika kupenga.
15 Then hee went and claue to a citizen of that conntrey, and hee sent him to his farme, to feede swine.
Lino walaya kumuntu naumbi wa mucishi umo. Lino muntu uyo walamupa incito yakwembela ne kusanina nkumba.
16 And hee would faine haue filled his bellie with the huskes, that the swine ate: but no man gaue them him.
Mutuloba uyo walatatika kukumbwa bufufu bwamusekese mboshali kulya nkumba. Nomba kuliya nambi muntu umo walikumupa byakulya.”
17 Then he came to him selfe, and said, Howe many hired seruaunts at my fathers haue bread ynough, and I die for hunger?
“Lino mpwalekalikana mano mumoyo wakendi walambeti, basebenshi bonse ba bata bakute byakulya bingi balekutunga, lino ame kuno ndayandanga kufwa kunsala.
18 I wil rise and goe to my father, and say vnto him, Father, I haue sinned against heaue, and before thee,
Ndanyamukunga njenga kuli bata njengambeti, Ta, ndalepisha kuli Lesa ne kuli njamwe.
19 And am no more worthy to be called thy sonne: make me as one of thy hired seruants.
Nkandelela kukwiweti mwanenu, nsombi munsuminishe nsanduke musebenshi wenu.”
20 So hee arose and came to his father, and when hee was yet a great way off, his father sawe him, and had compassion, and ranne and fell on his necke, and kissed him.
Lino walanyamuka nekubwelela kuli baishi. “Nkacili patali baishi balamubona, lino bamunyumfwila inkumbo, ne kumukonka akumukumbata ne kumumyanguta mwakukondwa.
21 And the sonne sayde vnto him, Father, I haue sinned against heauen, and before thee, and am no more worthie to be called thy sonne.
Mwana uyo walabambila baisheti, ta, ndalepisha kuli Lesa ne kuli amwe. Nkandelelela kukwiweti mwanenu.
22 Then the father said to his seruaunts, Bring foorth the best robe, and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feete,
Nomba baishi balambila basebenshi babo eti, ‘Kamufwambanani mulete byakufwala byaina afwale. Mumufwalike likosa kumunwe ne nkwabilo kumyendo.
23 And bring the fat calfe, and kill him, and let vs eate, and be merie:
Salaniponi ng'ombe yansuka inene mushine kwambeti tulye tukondwe.
24 For this my sonne was dead, and is aliue againe: and he was lost, but he is found. And they began to be merie.
Pakwinga uyu mwaname wanga wafwa, lino laba muyumi kayi wanga wataika lino lacaniki.’ Pacindici balatatika kusekelela.”
25 Nowe the elder brother was in the fielde, and when he came and drewe neere to the house, he heard melodie, and dauncing,
Pacindico mukulene bantu walikuba kulibala. Lino mpwalashika pepi ne ng'anda, walanyumfwa bantu bali kabembila ne kushana ne kulubisha.
26 And called one of his seruaunts, and asked what those things meant.
Walakuwa musebenshi umo nekumwipusheti, “cilenshikinga kuno nicani?”
27 And hee sayde vnto him, Thy brother is come, and thy father hath killed the fatte calfe, because he hath receiued him safe and sound.
Musebenshi walakumbuleti, “Mukwenu lesa neco baiso bamushinini ng'ombe yansuka inene pakwinga lesa nkali muyumi.”
28 Then he was angry, and would not goe in: therefore came his father out and entreated him.
Mpwalanyumfweco popelapo walakalala kayi walakana nekwingila mung'anda. Nomba baishi balapula pansa kuya kumukombeleleti engile mung'anda.
29 But he answered and said to his father, Loe, these many yeeres haue I done thee seruice, neither brake I at any time thy commadement, and yet thou neuer gauest mee a kidde that I might make merie with my friends.
Nendi walakumbula baishi eti, kamubonani! byaka kufula mbyondamusebensele eti ndemusha kayi ndiyawa kumwipishilapo nambi pang'ana nomba muliya kumpapo nambi kapongo konka kwambeti kondwepo nebaname.
30 But when this thy sonne was come, which hath deuoured thy good with harlots, thou hast for his sake killed the fat calfe.
Nsombi mwanenu uyu walononga buboni bwenu mubatukashi bapombo, mpwalesa kung'anda, mulamushinini ng'ombe yansuka!
31 And he said vnto him, Sonne, thou art euer with me, and al that I haue, is thine.
Baishi balamwambileti, “Omwaname, obe uli nenjame cindi conse kayi bintu byonse mbyonkute nibyakobe.
32 It was meete that we shoulde make merie, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is aliue againe: and hee was lost, but he is found.
Nsombi lino katukondwa nekusekelela pakwinga kanike wakobe walikuba wafwa, lino nimuyumi, walikuba wataika, lino lacaniki.”
