Luke 17
1 Jesus said to his disciples, ‘It is inevitable that there should be temptations but sorrow awaits the person who does the tempting!
Yesu kawagambira wafundwa wakuwi, “Vintu vyavimtenda muntu katendi vidoda mpaka vilawili, kumbiti shondi kwa ulii yakavijega!
2 It would be better for them if they had been flung into the sea with a millstone round their neck, rather than that they should cause even one of these little ones to stumble.
Ayiweri mbaka kwa muntu yakavijega vikomu kumtawa musingu libuwi likulu lya kusagila na kumwasira mubahali, kuliku kumkalaziya yumu gwa wadidini awa watendi vidoda.
3 Be on your guard! If your brother or sister does wrong, rebuke them; but if they repent, forgive them.
Muliloleli weri ntambu yamtenda! “Handa mlongu gwaku pakatenda vidoda, gumkalipiri na pakaleka gumlekizii.
4 Even if they wrong you seven times a day, but turns to you every time and says “I am sorry,” you must forgive them.’
Handa pakakukoseya mala saba kwa lishaka limu, na kila shipindi pakakuwuyira na kutakula, ‘Vyantenditi gunekiziyi,’ su gufiruwa gumlekizii.”
5 ‘Give us more faith,’ said the apostles to the Master;
Wantumintumi wamgambiriti Mtuwa, “Gutongeleri njimiru.”
6 but the Master said, ‘If your faith were only like a mustard seed, you could say to this mulberry tree “Be uprooted and planted in the sea,” and it would obey you.
Mtuwa kawankula, “Handa njimiru yenu payiwera nkulu gambira mbeyu ya ndidini nentu, hamuwezi kugugambira mtera gwa mkuyu, ‘Gutupuki gukaliyoshikeri mubahali!’ Ndo meguwajimili.
7 Which of you, if he had a servant ploughing, or tending the sheep, would say to him, when he came in from the fields, “Come at once and take your place at the table,”
“Yumu pakati penu pakawera na ntumintumi yakalima lirambu ama kankulolera wakondolu. Pakawuya kulawa kulirambu, hakamgambiri ntumintumi ulii kamkamu, gwizi gulii shiboga?
8 Instead of saying “Prepare my dinner, and then make yourself ready and serve me while I am eating and drinking, and after that you will eat and drink yourself”?
Ndala! Hakamgambiri, ‘Gunyawili huti shiboga, shakapanu guvali na guweri kala kuntendera mpaka mmalili kuliya na kulanda, shakapanu gwenga hagulii.’
9 Does he feel grateful to his servant for doing what he is told?
Hashi, hagulongi mayagashii kwa ntumintumi toziya katenda vyakamgambiriti?
10 And so with you – when you have done all that you have been told, still say “We are but useless servants; we have done no more than we ought to have done.”’
Ntambu iraa ayi kwa mwenga, pamtenda kala vyoseri vyawawagambiriti mtendi, mlongi, ‘Twenga twawantumintumi hera weni twahera mota, tutenda hera lihengu lyetu.’”
11 On the way to Jerusalem Jesus passed between Samaria and Galilee.
Yesu pakaweriti mumwanja kugenda Yerusalemu, kapitiliti mumipaka mwa Samariya na Galilaya.
12 As he was entering a village, ten lepers met him.
Pakaweriti kankwingira pashijiji, kaliwoniti na wantu lilongu limu yawaweriti na ungumbula. Wagolokiti kwa kutali
13 Standing still, some distance off, they called out loudly, ‘Jesus! Sir! Pity us!’
na wabotanga pawalonga, “Yesu! Mtuwa! Gutuwoneri lusungu!”
14 When Jesus saw them, he said, ‘Go and show yourselves to the priest.’ And, as they were on their way, they were made clean.
Yesu kawawoniti na kawagambira, “Mgendi mwakaliwonisiyi kwa mkulu gwa ludewa.” Pawaweriti munjira wankugenda su wapungikiti.
15 One of them, finding he was cured, came back, praising God loudly,
Yumu pakati pawu pakawoniti handa kapona, kawuyiti pakamkwisa Mlungu kwa liziwu likulu.
16 and threw himself on his face at Jesus’ feet, thanking him for what he had done; and this man was a Samaritan.
Kasuntama makukama pa magulu ga Yesu nakulonga mayagashii kwa Yesu. Muntu ulii kaweriti Msamariya.
17 ‘Were not all the ten made clean? exclaimed Jesus. But the nine – where are they?
Yesu kalonga, “Kuweriti na wantu lilongu yawapungitwi, wakoshi walii wamonga tisa?
18 Were there none to come back and praise God except this foreigner?
Iwera ashi muhenga ayu gweka yakuwi ndo kiza kumkwisa Mlungu?”
19 Get up,’ he said to him, ‘and go on your way. Your faith has delivered you.’
Na Yesu kamgambira, “Gugoloki na gugendi, njimiru yaku ikuponiziya.”
20 Being once asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God was to come, Jesus answered, ‘The kingdom of God does not come in a way that can be seen,
Mafalisayu wamu wamkosiyiti Yesu, “Ufalumi wa Mlungu wankwiza ndi?” Yomberi kawankula, “Ufalumi wa Mlungu wankwiza ndiri ntambu ya kuwoneka.
21 nor will people say “Look, here it is!” or “There it is!”; for the kingdom of God is within you!
Kwahera muntu hakawezi kutakula, ‘Guloli’ wapalaa! Ama ‘Wa palii!’ Toziya Ufalumi wa Mlungu wamngati mwenu.”
22 The day will come,’ he said to his disciples, ‘when you will long to see but one of the days of the Son of Man, and will not see it.
Shakapanu kawagambira wafundwa wakuwi, “Shipindi hakizi pamfira kulilola lishaka limu mumashaka ga Mwana gwa Muntu, kumbiti hapeni muliwoni.
23 People will say to you “There he is!” Or “Here he is!” Do not go and follow them.
Wantu woseri hawakugambirani, ‘Mloli, ka palii!’ Ama, ‘Mloli ka panu!’ Kumbiti mwenga namlawa pota namuwafata,
24 For, just as lightning will lighten and flare from one side of the heavens to the other, so will it be with the Son of Man.
toziya Mwana gwa Adamu mumashaka gakuwi, hakaweri gambira lumeta lwa lupanda ntambu yalulangala kulyera kwanjira uwega umu mpaka uwega umonga.
25 But first he must undergo much suffering, and he must be rejected by the present generation.
Kumbiti kwanja kafiruwa katabiki muvitwatira vivuwa na kulemwa na wantu wa shiyiwuku ashi.
26 As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be again in the days of the Son of Man.
Ntambu yayiweriti mumashaka ga Nuhu, ndo hayiweri mumashaka ga Mwana gwa Muntu.
27 They were eating and drinking and marrying and being married, up to the very day on which Noah entered the ark, and then the flood came and destroyed them all.
Wantu wendereyiti kuliya na kulanda, na wapalu hawayugi na wadala kuyugwa mpaka shipindi shilii Nuhu pakayingiliti musafina. Mafuliku galawiti na kuwalaga woseri.
28 So, too, in the days of Lot. People were eating, drinking, buying, selling, planting, building;
Hayiweri gambira shipindi sha Lutu. Wantu wendereyiti kuliya na kulanda, kuhemera na kuuza, kuyala na kunyawa.
29 but, on the very day on which Lot came out of Sodom, it rained fire and sulphur from the skies and destroyed them all.
Lishaka lilii Lutu pakawukiti Sodoma, motu na mabuhi ga motu gatowiti gambira mvula kulawa kumpindi na kuwalaga woseri.
30 It will be the same on the day on which the Son of Man reveals himself.
Ntambu ayi hayiweri mulijuwa lilii Mwana gwa Muntu pakawoneka.”
31 On that day, if a person is on their house-top and their goods in the house, they must not go down to get them; nor again must one who is on the farm turn back.
“Lijuwa lilii muntu yakawera pampindi pashitwiku pa numba yakuwi nakasuluka pasi kutola ulunda wakuwi, Ntambu iraa ayi muntu yoseri pakawera kuisi na kawuya ukaya.
32 Remember Lot’s wife.
Mmuholi mdala gwa Lutu!
33 Whoever is eager to get the most out of their life will lose it; but whoever will lose it will preserve it.
Yoseri yakafira kugaponiziya makaliru gakuwi, hakagamiziyi na yoseri yakagamiziya makaliru gakuwi hakagalopoziyi.
34 On that night, I tell you, of two people on the same bed, one will be taken and the other left;
Nukugambirani, pashiru palii wantu wawili hawaweri wankugonja mushitanda shimuwera, yumu hawamtoli na yumonga hawamleki.
35 of two women grinding grain together, one will be taken and the other left.’
Wadala wawili hawaweri wankusaga usaka pamuwera, yumu hawamtoli na yumonga hawamleki.”
Wantu wawili hawaweri wankutenda lihengu mulirambu, yumu hawamtoli na yumonga hawamleki
37 ‘Where will it be, Master?’ asked the disciples. ‘Where there is a body,’ said Jesus, ‘there will the vultures flock.’
wantumini wamkosiyiti Yesu, “Koshi Mtuwa?” Yesu kawankula, “Papawera na lintumbi, kunguru ndo hawaliwoni pamuwera.”
