Luke 18
1 He also taught them by a parable how they ought always to pray and never to lose heart.
neke akavavula ikihwanikisio ndavule lunoghile kukufunya jaatu, kisila kukatala.
2 "There was a certain town," he said, "a judge who had neither reverence for God, nor respect for man.
akatisaha kwealyale umhighi mu likaaja limonga, juno naalayle ikumwoghopa uNguluve kange naavikilagha mu mwoojo kukuvatanga avaanhu.
3 "In that same town there was a widow who came again and again before him, saying, "‘Do for me the justice of my adversary.’
mwealyale umfwile jumonga mulikaaja ilio, ghwope akamulutila kekinga akati, “nange unighilile un'koleumulugu ghwango aleke kutoola ifyango.
4 "For a while he would not, but afterwards he said to himself, ‘Though I have neither reverence for God nor regard for man,
ku nsiki ntali naale ipinyile kuuti antange, neke ye ghukilile unsiki akasagha mu mwoojo ghwae. pope une nikumwoghopa UNguluve nambe kukuvoghopa avaanhu.
5 "‘yet because this woman annoys me I will give her justice, lest by her continual coming she wear me out.’
pope ulwakuva umfwile uju ikung'atasia nikuntanga akave ikighavo kyake neke aleke kukung'atasia kange”.
6 "Listen" said the Lord, "to what this unjust judge says.
neke uMutwa akajova akati, 'pulikisia fino ajovile umhighi umhosi uju.
7 "And will not God see justice done to his elect who are crying unto him day and night, even if he seems to delay helping them?
pe uNguluve ghwope naileta ikyang'haani ku vimike vake vano viku mulilila pamwisi na pakilo? pe umwene naiiva nulugudo kuveene?
8 "I tell you that he will quickly see justice done to his elect! Nevertheless, when the Son of man comes, will he find faith upon the earth?"
nikuvavula kuuti, ikwisa ni kyang'haani kuveene ng'ani ng'ani. neke unsiki ghono umwana gwa muunhu ikwisa ilikulwagha ulwitiko lwa iisi?'
9 Moreover he spoke this parable to some who trusted in themselves because they were righteous, and looked down upon the rest.
pepano akavavula ikihwani iki pwevalyale avaanhu vamonga vano vikuvoona kuuti aveene kuva vagholofu na kuvapenapula avange,
10 "Two men are going up to the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, the other a tax-gatherer.
avaanhu vavili vakaluta kunyumba inyimike ja kufunyila: jumo aale mFalisayi nu junge n'songesia songo.
11 "The Pharisee stood apart and thus began to pray by himself. "‘O God, I thank thee that I am not like the rest of men, extortioners, rogues, adulterers, or even like this tax gatherer;
umFalisayi akima na akifunya ndiki mu mwoojo ghwake, 'nikukuhongesia Nguluve vule une nanili ndavule avaanhu avange vano vakunyi, avaanhu vano vahoka makole, avavwafu nambe ndavule uju unsongesia songo.
12 "‘I fast twice a week, I pay tithes of all my possessions.’
une ku nywabaha nibuhila kulia kavili kange nitavula ilitekelo mu meto soni sino nikava.
13 "But the tax-gatherer, standing far back, would not lift up so much as his eyes to heaven, but kept beating his breast and saying, "‘O God be merciful to me, the sinner!’
neke unsongesia songo, alyimile pavutali looli nalyaghelile nambe kukwinamula amaaso ghake kukyanya. akatovatova pakifuva kya mwene akati, 'Nguluve unsaghile une ne muhosi'
14 "I tell you that this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for every one who exalts himself shall be humbled; but he who humbles himself shall be exalted."
nikuvavula, umuunhu ndavule uju alyagomwike kukaja apyanilue inyivi saake sooni kukila ujunge jula ulwakuva gheni juno ikughinia uNguluve alyamusia, ghwope juno ikujisia uNguluve alyantosia.
15 And they kept bringing their babies for him to touch them; but when his disciples saw it they began to rebuke them.
avaanhu vakatwalila avaanha avadebe kuuti vamwabasie, neke avavulanisivua vake ye vavwene aghu, vakavasigha.
16 But Jesus called for the babies. "Let the little children come to me," he said, "do not hinder them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
neke uYesu akavakemela kwa mwene akatisagha, 'valeke avaanha avadebe vise kulyine nambe namungavasighahe. ulwakuva uvutwa vwa Nguluve vwe va vaanhu ndavule avuo.
17 "I tell you in solemn truth that whoever will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child, he will never get into it."
kyang'ani nikuvavula, umuunhu ghweni juno naikvupila uvutwa vwa Nguluve hwene mwana sesene nailikwingila'.
18 A ruler put this question to him. "Good teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" (aiōnios g166)
um'baha jumonga akam'posia akati, 'm'bulanisi nono, nivombe kiki neke pambele nive nu vwumi vwa kusila na kusila?' (aiōnios g166)
19 "Why are you calling me ‘good’?"said Jesus to him; "no one is good but God.
uYesu akamwamul akati, 'kiki ghukung'emela nnono? nakwale umuunhu juno nnono, loli ju Nguluve mwene.
20 "You know the commandments. "Do not commit adultery, Do not murder, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honor your father and mother."
usikagwile indaghilo nunga vwafukaghe, nungabudaghe, nungahijaghe, nungolekaghe uvudesi, umwoghopaghe uvaaso nu mamajo.
21 "All of these," he replied, "I have kept from my youth up."
um'baha jula akati, 'isio sooni nigadilile kuhuma ye nili nsoleka”.
22 And receiving this reply, Jesus said to him. "One thing you are still lacking. Sell all that you have and give it to the poor, and you shall have treasure in heaven. Then come and follow me."
uYesu ye asipulike isio akam'bula, “upeelile ikinu kimonga. lunoghile ughusie ifinu fyoni fino ulinafyo neke uvaghavile avakotofu, najuve ghuliva ni kyuma ku kyanya - kange ghwise umbingilile'.
23 But when he heard these words he became deeply grieved, for he was exceedingly rich.
neke umofu ye apulike aghuo, akasukunile kyongo ulwakuva alyale ni kyuma kinga.
24 Jesus looked at him and said. "How hard it is for those who have money to enter into the kingdom of God!
pe pano uYesu, akam'bona vule asukunile kyongo akati, 'lutalamu kyongo avanya kyuma kukwingila ku vutwa vwa Nguluve!
25 Why, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God."
lwakuva kihugu kyongo ingamila kukilila pa kilioli kya sindano, kuliko kwa mmofu kukwingila ku vutwa vwa Nguluve.
26 "Who then can be saved?" exclaimed his hearers.
vala vano valyapulike aghuo vakati, pe ghweveni lino juno ndepoonu ipokua?'
27 "Things that are impossible with men," he answered them, "are possible with God."
uYesu akamula akati, 'sino avaanhu vikunua kuvomba ku ngufu saave neke kwa Nguluve sivombeka'.
28 Then Peter said, "Look! we have left our homes and followed you."
uPeteli akati, 'Ena, usue tufilekile ifinu fyoni tukuvingilile uve.'
29 And he said to them, "In Solemn truth I tell you that there is no one who, for the sake of the kingdom of God, has left houses, or wife, or brother, or parents, or children,
pe pano uYesu akavavula, kyang'haani nikuvavula kuuti, nakwale umuunhu juno ajilekile inyumba, nambe un'dala nambe unyalukolo nambe avapafi nambe avaanha vwimila uvutwa vwa Nguluve,
31 Then he took the twelve aside and told them. "See, we are on our way to Jerusalem, and all prophets regarding the son of Man will be fulfilled.
pe baho ye vakong'anisie vala kijigjo na vavili, akavavula, 'lola, tutogha kuluta kuYelusalemu, na masio ghoni ghano ghalembilue na vavili kujova isa mwana ghwa Muunhu kuuti ghikwilana.
32 "He will be betrayed to the Gentiles, and be mocked, and shamefully treated, and spit upon;
ulwakuva iiva mumavoko gha vaanhu avaYahudi vikum'bedagha na pikumuligha na pikumfunyila amate.
33 "and they will scourge and kill him; and the third day he will rise again."
kange vikun'kopagha ni fijeledi na kukum'buda neke pakighono ikya vutatu isyuuka.'
34 But they understood none of these sayings. His words were a mystery to them, and they did not know what he meant.
navalyasikagwile sino ijova isi. nalilisio ili lifisilue kuveene, navalyasitang'inie sino sijovilue
35 As Jesus drew near to Jericho, there was a blind man who sat by the wayside begging.
pe lukava uYesu pano alipipi ku Yeliko, umuunhu jumonga um'bofu alikalile palubale lwa nsevo akaumagha vantange,
36 He heard the crowd passing and asked what the matter was.
ye apulike ilipugha lwa vaanhu likuling'ania akaposia kiki kihumila.
37 They told him, "Jesus of Nazareth is passing by."
vakam'bula kuuti uYesu ghwa Nasaleti ikila.
38 Then he shouted out, saying, "Jesus, son of David, take pity on me!"
pe um'bofu jula akalila fiijo akati, 'Yesu, mwana ghwa Davidi, unisaghile'.
39 Those who went ahead began to reprove him and to tell him to be still; but he kept clamorously shouting all the more, "Son of David, take pity on me!"
vala vano valyale vighenda vakan'dalikila um'bofu jula, vakam'bula ujike. neke umwene akaghina kulila fiijo, 'mwana ghwa Davidi, usanighile.
40 So Jesus stopped and ordered him to be brought to him. When he was come near to him he asked him
uYesu akima akasuuma umuunhu jula vamulete kwa mwene. pe um'bofu jula ye amuvelelile, uYesu akamposia,
41 "What do you want me to do for you?" "Lord," he answered, "that I might see again."
ghulonda nikuvombele kiki? akati, 'Mutwa, nilonda kulola'.
42 "Receive your sight," said Jesus, "your faith has saved you."
uYesu akam'bula, 'lino ulolaghe. ulwitiko lwako lukusosisie'.
43 Instantly he regained his sight and followed Jesus, giving glory to God; and all the people who saw it gave praise to God.
ku nsiki ghughuo akavisagha ilola, akam'bingilila uYesu na kukumughiniauNguluve. vati valyaghile ili, avaanhu vooni vakamughinia uNguluve.
