Luke 15
1 The tax collectors and the outcasts were all drawing near to Jesus to listen to him;
Mbe abhatobhesa bho obhushuru bhona na abhebhibhi abhandi bhejile ku Yesu okumutegelesha.
2 but the Pharisees and the teachers of the Law found fault. “This man always welcomes outcasts, and takes meals with them!” they complained.
Abhafarisayo bhona na abhandiki nibhalunduma nibhaika ati, “Omunu unu kakumilila abhebhibhi nakingila okulya nabho.”
3 So Jesus told them this parable –
Nio Yesu naika echijejekanyo chinu kubhene,
4 “Who among you who has a hundred sheep, and has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine out in the open country, and go after the lost sheep until he finds it?
“Niga unu mwimwe alina jinama egana akabhushako imwi, atakusiga ejindi makumi mwenda na mwenda ibhara, akaja okulonda inu yabhulile okukingila ao alaibhonela.
5 And, when he has found it, he puts in on his shoulders rejoicing;
Akefula naibhona kaiyeka kumabhega Gaye nakondelelwa.
6 and, on reaching home, he calls his friends and his neighbors together, and says ‘Come and rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost.’
Akakinga mumusi, nabhilikila abhasani bhaye na abhekashanya bhaye nabhabhwila ati 'mukondelelwe lwakutyo anye nili, kulwokubha naibhona inama yani eyo yaliga ibhulile.'
7 So, I tell you, there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one outcast who repents, than over ninety-nine religious people, who have no need to repent.
Enibhabhwila kutya mulwire ubhubhayo obhukondelelwa kulwo omunu umwi oyokata ebhibhibhi, kukila abhalengelesi makumi mwenda na mwenda bhanu bhatali na mwoyo gwo ukuta ebhibhibhi.
8 Or again, what woman who has ten silver coins, if she loses one of them, does not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and search carefully until she finds it?
Amo ni mugasiki unu ali na jiyela jomunyalaga ekumi, nabhusha imwi, atakukongesha itala nakukumba inyumba nokulonda kwa amanaga okukingila ao alaibhonela?
9 And, when she has found it, she calls her friends and neighbors together, and says ‘Come and rejoice with me, for I have found the coin which I lost.’
Akefula aibhwene kabhilikila abhasani bhaye na abhanyaluguyo bhaye nabhabhwila mukondelelwe lwa kutyo any nili, kulwokubha nasubha okubhona iyela yani eyonaliga nabhusishe.
10 So, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of God’s angels over one outcast who repents.”
Kulwejo enibhabhwila ati bhulio obhukondelelwa imbele ya bhamalaika bha Nyamuanga kulwo omunu umwi unu kata ebhibhibhi.”
11 Then Jesus continued, “A man had two sons;
Nio Yesu naika ati, “Omunu umwi aliga ana bhana bhabhili.
12 and the younger of them said to his father ‘Father, give me my share of the inheritance.’ So the father divided the property between them.
Omulela nabhwila esemwene ati, 'Lata nana libhala lya imali yomwandu gunu enilya. Kulwejo esemwene nabhagabhila imali bhona bhabhili.
13 A few days later the younger son got together all that he had, and went away into a distant land; and there he squandered his inheritance by leading a dissolute life.
Jichali kulabhao nsiku nyafu uliya omulela nakumanya ebhyaye bhona nagenda muchalo chakula, ejile akinga eyo nabha wakulasa-lasa jiyela jaye, nagulaga ebhinu bhitali na mugaso, ejindi nalasa-lasa mubhunyamuke.
14 After he has spent all that he had, there was a severe famine through all that country, and he began to be in actual want.
Ejile amalao jiyela injala nituka muchalo echo namba okulapalapa.
15 So he went and engaged himself to one of the people of that country, who sent him into his fields to tend pigs.
Neya nagenda okwilondela emilimu ku mwikasi umwi owechalo echo, mbe namusila mwisambu lyaye okugabhila jimpunu jaika.
16 He even longed to satisfy his hunger with the bean-pods on which the pigs were feeding; and no one gave him anything.
Nekumbulila okulya amasusu ganu galibhwaga jimpunu kulwokubha atabhaoga munu wokumuyana chonachona echokulya.
17 But, when he came to himself, he said ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have more bread than they can eat, while here am I starving to death!
Ejile akeganilisha mumwoyo gwaye, nelomela ati, 'Abhagaya bha lata nibhalinga, abhalya nibheguta kanye nilyanu enifwa nomweko!
18 I will get up and go to my father, and say to him “Father, I sinned against heaven and against you;
Enisokanu nigende kulata nokumubhwila ati, “Lata nikaile mulwile na imbele ya ameso gao. Jiteile nibhilikilwe mwana wao
19 I am no longer fit to be called your son; make me one of your hired servants.”’
lindi; nunteo Leo oumwi wa abhagaya bhao.'”
20 And he got up and went to his father. But, while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was deeply moved; he ran and threw his arms around his neck and kissed him.
Nio nemuka nagenda kwe esemwene. Achali kula esemwene amulolele naja namufwila chigongo nabhilima bhwangu namufumbela nokumunyunya.
21 ‘Father,’ the son said, ‘I sinned against heaven and against you; I am no longer fit to be called your son; make me one of your hired servants.’
Omwana uliya nabhwila esemwene ati, 'lata niyabhiye olwire na imbele ya ameso gao nitakwiya okubhilikilwa mwana wao.'
22 But the father turned to his servants and said ‘Be quick and fetch a robe – the very best – and put it on him; give him a ring for his finger and sandals for his feet;
Esemwene nabhwila abhakosi bhaye ati, 'mulete bhwangu omwenda gwekisi, mumufwafye mumutulemo ipete muchala ne ebhilato mumagulu.
23 and bring the fattened calf and kill it, and let us eat and make merry;
Mukamala mulete echinyara echinule muchinje chilye chikondelelwe.
24 for here is my son who was dead, and is alive again, was lost, and is found.’ So they began making merry.
Kulwokubha omwana wani aliga afuye olyanu ni muanga. Aliga abhulile nawe abhonekana, nibhamba okutela akaila.
25 Meanwhile the elder son was out in the fields; but, on coming home, when he got near the house, he heard music and dancing,
Mbe omwana waye omukulu aliga alimwisambu. Aliga achaja alebhelee ika nongwa obhulaka bhwa jinyimbo no obhwenywa.
26 and he called one of the servants and asked what it all meant.
Nabhilikila omugaya umwi namubhusha ati amagambo ago gana nsongaki?
27 ‘Your brother has come back,’ the servant told him, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has him back safe and sound.’
Omugaya namubhwila ati omutoto wao aja lelo na esomwana amuchinjila echinyara chenule kulwokubha asubha ali muanga.'
28 This made him angry, and he would not go in. But his father came out and begged him to do so.
Omwana omukulu nabhiililwa nalema okwingila munju esemwene nasoka anja naja okumulembeleja.
29 ‘No,’ he said to his father, ‘look at all the years I have been serving you, without ever once disobeying you, and yet you have never given me even a young goat, so that I might have a party with my friends.
nawe nasubhya esemwene ati, “Lola anye nakukoleye myaka myafu, nchaliga okugaya amalagililo gao, nawe uchaliga kunana akanabhusi, koleleki ninyenyege na abhasani bhani.
30 But, no sooner has this son of yours come, who has eaten up your property in the company of prostitutes, than you have killed the fattened calf for him.’
Nawe ajokuja omwana wao unu alasa-lasaga imali yao yona ali na abhasimbe bha muchilabho wamuchinjila echinyara echinule
31 ‘Child,’ the father answered, ‘you are always with me, and everything that I have is yours.
Esemwene namubhwila ati, 'mwana wani, awe uliamwi nanye nsiku jona na bhinu nilinabhyo bhyona ni bhyao.
32 We could but make merry and rejoice, for here is your brother who was dead, and is alive; who was lost, and is found.’”
Tali jaliga jili jakisi kwise okukola olumula nokukondelelwa, omula wanyu unu aliga afuye, olyanu nimuanga; aliga abhulile na lelo abhoneka
