Luke 17
1 He said to the disciples, “It is impossible that no occasions of stumbling should come, but woe to him through whom they come!
Nake Jesũ akĩĩra arutwo ake atĩrĩ, “Maũndũ marĩa matũmaga andũ mehie no nginya moke, no mũndũ ũrĩa ũtũmaga maũndũ macio moke kaĩ arĩ na haaro-ĩ!
2 It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, rather than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble.
Nĩ kaba mũndũ ta ũcio ohererwo ihiga rĩa gĩthĩi ngingo aikio iria-inĩ, gũkĩra atũme kamwe ga twana tũtũ tũnini keehie.
3 Be careful. If your brother sins against you, rebuke him. If he makes teshuvah ·complete repentance·, forgive him.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, ikaragai mwĩiguĩte. “Mũrũ wa thoguo kana mwarĩ wa thoguo angĩĩhia, mũkaanie, na angĩĩrira-rĩ, mũrekere.
4 If he sins against you seven times in the day, and seven times returns, saying, ‘I make teshuvah ·complete repentance·,’ you shall forgive him.”
Angĩkwĩhĩria maita mũgwanja o mũthenya ũmwe, na maita macio mothe mũgwanja agooka harĩ we agakwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩndahera,’ nĩ wega ũmũrekere.”
5 The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our trusting faith.”
Nao atũmwo makĩĩra Mwathani atĩrĩ, “Tuongerere wĩtĩkio!”
6 The Lord said, “If you had trusting faith like a grain of mustard seed, you would tell this sycamore tree, ‘Be uprooted, and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.
Nake akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Mũngĩkorwo na wĩtĩkio o mũnini ta kabegũ ga karatarĩ-rĩ, mwera mũkũyũ ũyũ atĩrĩ, ‘Kũũrũka, ũkehaande iria-inĩ,’ naguo no ũmwathĩkĩre.
7 But who is there among you, having a servant plowing or keeping sheep, that will say, when he comes in from the field, ‘Come immediately and sit down at the table,’
“Nĩ mũndũ ũrĩkũ wanyu ũngĩkorwo arĩ na ndungata ya kũmũrĩmĩra na mũraũ kana ya kũmũrĩithĩria ngʼondu, na ndungata ĩyo yoimĩra mũgũnda amĩĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Ũka ũikare thĩ ũrĩe?’
8 and will not rather tell him, ‘Prepare my supper, clothe yourself properly, and serve me, while I eat and drink. Afterward you shall eat and drink’?
Githĩ to amĩĩrire atĩrĩ, ‘Thondekera irio cia hwaĩ-inĩ, na wĩhaarĩrie ũnjikarie ngĩrĩa na ngĩnyua; na thuutha ũcio no ũrĩe na ũnyue’?
9 Does he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded? I think not.
Ningĩ no agĩcookerie ndungata ĩyo ngaatho nĩ gwĩka ũrĩa ĩĩrĩtwo ĩĩke?
10 Even so you also, when you have done all the things that are commanded you, say, ‘We are unworthy servants. We have done our duty.’”
Ũguo noguo o na inyuĩ, rĩrĩa mweka ũrĩa wothe mwĩrĩtwo mwĩke, ugagai atĩrĩ, ‘Tũrĩ o ndungata itarĩ kĩene; twaruta o wĩra witũ tu.’”
11 As he was on his way to Jerusalem [City of peace], he was passing along the borders of Samaria [Watch-mountain] and Galilee [District, Circuit].
Na rĩrĩ, Jesũ arĩ rũgendo-inĩ rwa gũthiĩ Jerusalemu nĩagereire mũhaka-inĩ wa Samaria na Galili.
12 As he entered into a certain village, ten men who were afflicted with tzara'at ·leprosy· met him, who stood at a distance.
Na rĩrĩa aatoonyaga gatũũra kamwe, agĩtũngwo nĩ andũ ikũmi maarĩ na mũrimũ wa mangũ. Makĩrũgama o haraaya,
13 They lifted up their voices, saying, “Yeshua [Salvation], Master, have mercy on us!”
makĩanĩrĩra na mũgambo mũnene, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Jesũ, Mwathi witũ, tũiguĩre tha!”
14 When he saw them, he said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” As they went, they were cleansed.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aamoonire, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Thiĩi mũkeyonanie kũrĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai.” Na rĩrĩa maathiiaga-rĩ, magĩtherio.
15 One of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, glorifying God with a loud voice.
Rĩrĩa ũmwe wao onire nĩahonio, akĩhũndũka akĩgooca Ngai na mũgambo mũnene,
16 He fell on his face at Yeshua [Salvation]'s feet, giving him thanks; and he was a Samaritan [person from Watch-mountain].
Akĩĩgũithia thĩ magũrũ-inĩ ma Jesũ, akĩmũcookeria ngaatho. Mũndũ ũcio aarĩ Mũsamaria.
17 Yeshua [Salvation] answered, “Were not the ten cleansed? But where are the nine?
Jesũ akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Githĩ othe ikũmi matiatherio? Acio angĩ kenda marĩ ha?
18 Were there none found who teshuvah ·completely returned· to give glory to God, except this stranger?”
Gũtirĩ o na ũmwe ũngĩcooka kũhe Ngai ũgooci tiga o mũgeni ũyũ?”
19 Then he said to him, “Get up, and go your way. Your trusting faith has healed you.”
Agĩcooka akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũkĩra wĩthiĩre; gwĩtĩkia gwaku nĩkuo gwatũma ũhone.”
20 Being asked by the Pharisees [Separated] when God’s Kingdom would come, he answered them, “God’s Kingdom does not come with observation;
Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ĩmwe Afarisai nĩmoririe Jesũ rĩrĩa ũthamaki wa Ngai ũgooka. Nake akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Ũthamaki wa Ngai ndũũkaga na imenyithia iria mũngĩĩrorera,
21 neither will they say, ‘Look, here!’ or, ‘Look, there!’ for behold, God’s Kingdom is within you.”
kana andũ moige atĩrĩ, ‘Ũrĩ haha,’ kana ‘Ũrĩ harĩa,’ tondũ ũthamaki wa Ngai ũrĩ thĩinĩ wanyu.”
22 He said to the disciples, “The days will come, when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it.
Agĩcooka akĩĩra arutwo ake atĩrĩ, “Ihinda nĩrĩroka rĩrĩa mũkeriragĩria kuona mũthenya ũmwe wa Mũrũ wa Mũndũ, no mũtikawona.
23 They will tell you, ‘Look, here!’ or ‘Look, there!’ Don’t go away, nor follow after them,
Andũ nĩmakamwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Arĩ harĩa!’ kana ‘Arĩ haha!’ Mũtikanatengʼere mũmarũmĩrĩre.
24 for as the lightning, when it flashes out of the one part under the sky, shines to the other part under the sky; so will the Son of Man be in his day.
O ta ũrĩa rũheni rũhenũkaga rũkamũrĩka matu kuuma mũthia ũmwe nginya ũrĩa ũngĩ, no taguo gũũka kwa Mũrũ wa Mũndũ gũkahaana mũthenya ũcio wake.
25 But first, he must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.
No rĩrĩ, no nginya ambe one mathĩĩna maingĩ na aregwo nĩ andũ a rũciaro rũrũ.
26 As it was in the days of Noah [Rest], even so will it be also in the days of the Son of Man.
“O ta ũrĩa gwatariĩ matukũ-inĩ ma Nuhu, noguo gũkaahaana matukũ-inĩ ma Mũrũ wa Mũndũ.
27 They ate, they drank, they married, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah [Rest] entered into the ship, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
Andũ acio maakorirwo makĩrĩa, na makĩnyua, na makĩhikania, na makĩhikio, o nginya mũthenya ũrĩa Nuhu aatoonyire thabina. Hĩndĩ ĩyo kĩguũ kĩnene gĩgĩũka gĩkĩmaniina othe.
28 Likewise, even as it was in the days of Lot [Veil, Covering]: they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built;
“Ningĩ ũguo noguo gwatariĩ matukũ-inĩ ma Loti. Andũ acio maakorirwo makĩrĩa na makĩnyua, na makĩgũra na makĩendia, na makĩhaanda na magĩaka nyũmba.
29 but in the day that Lot [Veil, Covering] went out from Sodom [Burning], Yahweh caused it to rain fire and sulfur from the sky, and destroyed them all.
No mũthenya ũrĩa Loti oimire Sodomu, mwaki na ũbiriti ikiura ta mbura kuuma igũrũ, ikĩmaniina othe.
30 It will be the same way in the day that the Son of Man is revealed.
“Ũguo noguo gũkahaana mũthenya ũrĩa Mũrũ wa Mũndũ akaaguũranĩrio.
31 In that day, he who will be on the housetop, and his goods in the house, let him not go down to take them away. Let him who is in the field likewise not turn back.
Mũthenya ũcio, mũndũ o wothe ũgaakorwo arĩ nyũmba igũrũ, na indo ciake irĩ nyũmba thĩinĩ, ndakanaharũrũke gũcigĩĩra. Ningĩ o na mũndũ ũrĩa ũgaakorwo arĩ mũgũnda ndakanahũndũke agĩĩre kĩndũ.
32 Remember Lot [Veil, Covering]’s wife!
Ta ririkanai mũtumia wa Loti!
33 Whoever seeks to save his life loses it, but whoever loses his life preserves it.
Mũndũ ũrĩa wothe ũgeragia gũtũũria muoyo wake nĩakoorwo nĩguo, nake ũrĩa wothe ũũragwo nĩ muoyo wake nĩakaũtũũria.
34 I tell you, in that night there will be two people in one bed. The one will be taken, and the other will be left.
Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ, ũtukũ ũcio andũ eerĩ nĩmagakorwo makomete ũrĩrĩ ũmwe, nake ũmwe wao akuuo, na ũrĩa ũngĩ atigwo.
35 There will be two grinding grain together. One will be taken, and the other will be left.
Atumia eerĩ nĩmagakorwo magĩthĩa hamwe; ũmwe wao akuuo, na ũrĩa ũngĩ atigwo.
36 Two will be in the field: the one taken, and the other left.”
(Ningĩ arũme eerĩ nĩmagakorwo makĩruta wĩra hamwe, ũmwe wao akuuo, ũrĩa ũngĩ atigwo.)”
37 They, answering, asked him, “Where, Lord?” He said to them, “Where the body is, there will the vultures also be gathered together.”
Nao makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Kũu nĩ kũ Mwathani?” Nake akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Nderi ciũnganaga harĩa hothe harĩ kĩimba.”
