< Luke 10 >

1 Now after these things, the Lord also appointed seventy-two others, and sent them two by two ahead of him into every city and place, where he was about to come.
Thuutha wa ũguo Mwathani agĩthuura andũ angĩ mĩrongo mũgwanja na eerĩ, akĩmatũma eerĩ eerĩ, mathiĩ mbere yake matũũra-inĩ mothe na kũndũ kũrĩa we aakirie gũthiĩ.
2 Then he said to them, "The harvest is indeed plentiful, but the laborers are few. Pray therefore to the Lord of the harvest, that he may send out laborers into his harvest.
Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Magetha nĩ maingĩ, no aruti a wĩra nĩ anini. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, thaithai Mwathani wa magetha atũme aruti wĩra mathiĩ magetha-inĩ make.
3 Go your way. Look, I send you out as lambs among wolves.
Thiĩi! Ndamũtũma ta tũgondu gatagatĩ-inĩ ka njũũi.
4 Carry no money bag, nor pack, nor sandals; and greet no one on the way.
Mũtigakuue kĩbeti, kana mũhuko, o na kana iraatũ; na mũtikageithie mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ njĩra-inĩ.
5 Into whatever house you enter, first say, 'Peace be to this house.'
“Nyũmba o yothe ĩrĩa mũrĩtoonyaga-rĩ, ambagai kuuga atĩrĩ, ‘Thayũ ũrogĩa nyũmba ĩno.’
6 If a peaceful person is there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you.
Na kũngĩkorwo nĩ kũrĩ mũndũ mwendi thayũ kuo, thayũ ũcio wanyu nĩũrĩikaraga nake; na kũngĩkorwo gũtirĩ, thayũ ũcio wanyu nĩ ũrĩmũcookagĩrĩra.
7 Remain in that same house, eating and drinking the things they give, for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house.
Ikarai nyũmba ĩyo, mũrĩĩage na mũkanyua kĩrĩa gĩothe marĩmũheaga, nĩgũkorwo mũruti wĩra nĩagĩrĩirwo kũheagwo mũcaara wake. Mutikoimage nyũmba ĩmwe mũgathiĩ ĩrĩa ĩngĩ.
8 Into whatever city you enter, and they receive you, eat the things that are set before you.
“Mũngĩgatoonya itũũra mũnyiitwo ũgeni-rĩ, rĩĩagai o kĩrĩa mũngĩheo.
9 Heal the sick who are in it, and tell them, 'The Kingdom of God has come near to you.'
Honagiai arĩa arũaru kuo, na mũmeerage atĩrĩ, ‘Ũthamaki wa Ngai nĩũmũkuhĩrĩirie.’
10 But into whatever city you enter, and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say,
No mũngĩgatoonya itũũra o rĩothe mwage kũnyiitwo ũgeni-rĩ, umagarai, mũthiĩ njĩra-inĩ ciarĩo muuge atĩrĩ,
11 'Even the dust from your city that clings to our feet, we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that the Kingdom of God is near.'
‘Nĩtwaribariba o na rũkũngũ rwa itũũra rĩanyu rũrĩa rwĩnyiitĩrĩire magũrũ maitũ, rũmũcookerere. No rĩrĩ, menyai wega ũũ: ũthamaki wa Ngai nĩũmũkuhĩrĩirie.’
12 I tell you, it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that city.
Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ, Sodomu nĩgũgakirĩrĩrio mũthenya ũcio gũkĩra itũũra rĩu.
13 "Woe to you, Chorazin. Woe to you, Beit Tzaidah. For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
“Inyuĩ andũ a Korazini, kaĩ mũrĩ na haaro-ĩ! O na inyuĩ andũ a Bethisaida, kaĩ mũrĩ na haaro-ĩ! Tondũ korwo ciama iria mwaringĩirwo nĩcio ciaringĩirwo andũ a Turo na Sidoni, mangĩeririre tene mehumbe nguo cia makũnia na mehurĩrie mũhu.
14 But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you.
No andũ a Turo na Sidoni nĩmagakorwo marĩ murũ mũthenya ũcio wa ciira gũkĩra inyuĩ.
15 And you, Kfar-Nahum, will you be exalted to heaven? You will be brought down to Sheol. (Hadēs g86)
Na inyuĩ, andũ a Kaperinaumu, mũũĩ atĩ nĩmũgatũũgĩrio nginya matu-inĩ? Aca, mũkaaharũrũkio mũkinye kũrĩa kũriku mũno. (Hadēs g86)
16 Whoever listens to you listens to me, and whoever rejects you rejects me. Whoever rejects me rejects him who sent me."
“Mũndũ ũrĩa ũmũthikagĩrĩria inyuĩ nĩ niĩ athikagĩrĩria, na ũrĩa ũmũregaga nĩ niĩ aregaga, na ũrĩa ũrĩndegaga nĩ ũrĩa wandũmire arĩĩregaga.”
17 The seventy-two returned with joy, saying, "Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name."
Nao andũ acio mĩrongo mũgwanja na eerĩ magĩcooka makenete, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, o na ndaimono nĩiratwathĩkagĩra thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩaku.”
18 He said to them, "I saw Satan having fallen like lightning from heaven.
Nake akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩndĩronire Shaitani akĩgũa kuuma igũrũ ta rũheni.
19 Look, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing will in any way hurt you.
Inyuĩ nĩndĩmũheete ũhoti wa kũrangĩrĩria nyoka na tũngʼaurũ, na wa gũtooria hinya wothe wa thũ; gũtirĩ kĩndũ gĩkamwĩka ũũru.
20 Nevertheless, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven."
No rĩrĩ, mũtigakene tondũ ngoma nĩimwathĩkagĩra, no kenagai tondũ marĩĩtwa manyu nĩmandĩkĩtwo kũũrĩa Igũrũ.”
21 In that same hour he rejoiced in the Ruach ha-Kodesh, and said, "I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight."
Na ihinda o rĩu, Jesũ akĩiyũrwo nĩ gĩkeno kĩa Roho Mũtheru, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Baba, wee Mwathani wa igũrũ na thĩ, nĩngũkũgaatha tondũ nĩũhithĩte andũ arĩa oogĩ na marĩ na ũmenyo maũndũ maya, no ũkamaguũrĩria tũkenge. Baba, wĩkĩte ũguo tondũ nĩguo wendi waku.
22 "All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whomever the Son desires to reveal him."
“Nĩnengeretwo maũndũ mothe nĩ Baba. Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũũĩ Mũriũ nũũ, tiga Ithe witũ, na gũtirĩ mũndũ ũũĩ Ithe witũ nũũ o tiga Mũriũ na arĩa othe Mũriũ endaga kũguũrĩria.”
23 Turning to the talmidim, he said privately, "Blessed are the eyes which see the things that you see,
Agĩcooka akĩhũgũkĩra arutwo ake, akĩmeera marĩ oiki atĩrĩ, “Kũrathimwo nĩ maitho marĩa marona kĩrĩa mũrona.
24 for I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which you see, and did not see them, and to hear the things which you hear, and did not hear them."
Nĩgũkorwo ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ, anabii aingĩ na athamaki nĩmerirĩirie kuona maũndũ marĩa mũrona, no matiamonire na nĩmerirĩire kũigua maũndũ marĩa mũraigua, no matiamaiguire.”
25 And look, a certain Law scholar stood up and tested him, saying, "Teacher, what must I do to inherit everlasting life?" (aiōnios g166)
Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ĩmwe mũrutani ũmwe wa watho nĩarũgamire nĩguo agerie Jesũ, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mũrutani, njagĩrĩirwo nĩ gwĩka atĩa nĩguo ngaagaya muoyo wa tene na tene?” (aiōnios g166)
26 He said to him, "What is written in the Law? How do you read it?"
Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Kwandĩkĩtwo atĩa Watho-inĩ? Wee-rĩ, kaĩ ũthomaga atĩa?”
27 He answered, "You are to love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself."
Mũndũ ũcio akĩmũcookeria, akiuga atĩrĩ, “‘Endaga Mwathani Ngai waku na ngoro yaku yothe, na muoyo waku wothe, na hinya waku wothe, o na meciiria maku mothe’; na ‘Endaga mũndũ wa itũũra rĩanyu o ta ũrĩa wĩyendete wee mwene.’”
28 He said to him, "You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live."
Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ wacookia wega; ĩkaga ũguo, na nĩũgatũũra muoyo.”
29 But he, desiring to justify himself, asked Yeshua, "Who is my neighbor?"
No mũndũ ũcio nĩeendaga gwĩtua mwega, nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩũria Jesũ atĩrĩ, “Nake mũndũ wa itũũra nũũ?”
30 Yeshua answered, "A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead.
Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kwarĩ na mũndũ ũmwe waikũrũkaga oimĩte Jerusalemu arorete Jeriko, na akĩnyiitwo nĩ atunyani. Nao makĩmũruta nguo, makĩmũhũũra, magĩcooka magĩthiĩ, makĩmũtiga arĩ hakuhĩ gũkua.
31 By chance a certain cohen was going down that way. When he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũmwe nĩagereire njĩra ĩyo, na rĩrĩa onire mũndũ ũcio, akĩhĩtũkĩra mũkĩra-inĩ ũrĩa ũngĩ wa njĩra.
32 In the same way a Levite also, when he came to the place, and saw him, passed by on the other side.
Ũguo noguo Mũlawii eekire, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aakinyire hau, o nake, amuona akĩhĩtũkĩra mũkĩra ũũrĩa ũngĩ wa njĩra.
33 But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion,
No rĩrĩ, Mũsamaria ũmwe warĩ rũgendo-inĩ nĩakinyire harĩa mũndũ ũcio aarĩ, amuona akĩmũiguĩra tha.
34 came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. He set him on his own animal, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
Agĩthiĩ harĩ we, akĩmuoha ironda, na akĩmũitĩrĩria maguta na ndibei. Agĩcooka akĩmuoya, akĩmũhaicia igũrũ rĩa ndigiri yake, akĩmũtwara nyũmba ya ageni, akĩmũmenyerera.
35 On the next day, he took out two denarii, and gave them to the host, and said to him, 'Take care of him. Whatever you spend beyond that, I will repay you when I return.'
Kwarooka gũkĩa Mũsamaria ũcio akĩruta dinari igĩrĩ, agĩcinengera mwene nyũmba ĩyo ya ageni, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Mũmenyagĩrĩre, na ndacooka nĩngagũcookeria kĩrĩa kĩngĩ ũgaakorwo ũhũthĩrĩte.’
36 Now which of these three do you think seemed to be a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?"
“Ũgwĩciiria nĩ mũndũ ũrĩkũ wa acio atatũ watuĩkire mũndũ wa itũũra harĩ mũndũ ũcio wanyiitĩtwo nĩ atunyani?”
37 He said, "He who showed mercy on him." Then Yeshua said to him, "Go and do likewise."
Nake mũrutani ũcio wa watho akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũrĩa wamũiguĩrĩire tha.” Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ ũgeeke o ta ũguo.”
38 It happened as they went on their way, he entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha received him.
Na rĩrĩ, Jesũ na arutwo ake marĩ njĩra-inĩ magĩthiĩ, nĩatoonyire gatũũra kamwe kũrĩa aanyiitirwo ũgeni mũciĩ kwa mũtumia wetagwo Maritha.
39 She had a sister called Miriam, who also sat at the Lord's feet, and heard his word.
Maritha aarĩ na mwarĩ wa nyina wetagwo Mariamu, nake aikarĩte magũrũ-inĩ ma Mwathani athikĩrĩirie ũrĩa oigaga.
40 But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she came up to him, and said, "Lord, do you not care that my sister left me to serve alone? Ask her therefore to help me."
Nowe Maritha nĩarĩ na mĩhangʼo nĩ ũndũ wa maũndũ marĩa mothe magĩrĩire kũhaarĩrio. Agĩũka harĩ Jesũ, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, kaĩ ũtarona ũrĩa mwarĩ wa maitũ andekereirie wĩra? Mwĩre oke andeithie!”
41 But the Lord answered and said to her, "Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things,
Nake Mwathani akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Maritha, Maritha, nĩũtangĩkĩte, na ũgethĩĩnia na maũndũ maingĩ,
42 but one thing is needed. Miriam has chosen the good part, which will not be taken away from her."
no nĩ harĩ ũndũ ũmwe tu ũbataranĩtie. Mariamu nĩethuurĩire ũndũ ũrĩa mwega makĩria, naguo ũndũ ũcio ndangĩtunywo.”
