Luke 19
1 Jesus entered Jericho and made his way through the town.
Yesu nengila nalabha agati ya Yeliko.
2 There was a man there, known by the name of Zacchaeus, who was a senior tax collector and a rich man.
Ao aliga alio munu umwi unu atogwaga Jakayo. Unualiga ali mukulu wa bhatobhesha unu aliga ali munibhi.
3 He tried to see what Jesus was like; but, being short, he was unable to do so because of the crowd.
Aliga nalegeja okumulola Yesu ni munu wa namunaki, nawe natamibhwa okumulola okubha bhanu bhamfu okubha aliga ali munu mufui.
4 So he ran on ahead and climbed into a mulberry tree to see Jesus, for he knew that he must pass that way.
Mbe, natangata nabhilima nalinya kwikuyu koleleki amulole, okubha Yesu aliga naja otula kunjila eyo.
5 When Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him, “Zacchaeus, be quick and come down, for I must stop at your house today.”
Omwanya gunu Yesu ejile akakinga anu aliga ali nalalamila ingulu, namubhwila ati, Jakayo tuka bhwangu okubha lelo kunyiile okuwoya ika ewao.
6 So Zacchaeus got down quickly, and joyfully welcomed him.
' Natuka bhwangu, namukalibhisha kwa likondelwa.
7 On seeing this, everyone began to complain, “He has gone to stay with a man who is an outcast.”
Abhanu bhona bhejile bhalola kutyo, nibhetongamila, nibhaikati, 'Ajokulibhatila omunu webhibhibhi.'
8 But Zacchaeus stood forward and said to the Master, “Listen, Master! I will give half my property to the poor, and, if I have defrauded anyone of anything, I will give him back four times as much.”
Jakayo nemelegulu namubhwila Latabhugenyi, Lola Latabhugenyi inusu ye bhinu bhyani enigabhila abhataka, kalabha nasakuye omunu wonawona echinu, enimusubhisha kwiya kana. '
9 “Salvation has come to this house today,” answered Jesus, “for even this man is a son of Abraham.
Yesu namubhwila ati, 'Lelo omwelulo gwakinga munyumba inu, kulwokubha unu ona nimwana wa Ibulaimu.
10 The Son of Man has come to search for those who are lost and to save them.”
Okubha Omwana wo Munu ejile okuyenja no kukisha abhanu bhanu bhabhulile.'
11 As the people were listening to this, Jesus went on to tell them a parable. He did so because he was near Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God was going to be proclaimed at once.
Mbe bhejile bhwongwa ejo, nongesha okubhabhwila nasosha echijejekanyo, kulwokubha aliga ali yeyi na Yelusalemu, na bhene nibhetogelati obhukama bhwa Nyamuanga obhuja okubhonekana bhwangu.
12 He said, “A nobleman once went to a distant country to receive his appointment to a kingdom and then return.
Nabhabhwila ati, 'Mukulu umwi agendele muchalo cha kula abhone okulamila obhukama niwo alisubha.
13 He called ten of his servants and gave them ten pounds of silver each, and told them to trade with them during his absence.
Nabhilikila abhagaya bhae ekumi, nabhayana latili ekumi, nabhabhwilati, mwibhushemo okukinga anu ndikjila.'
14 But his subjects hated him and sent envoys after him to say ‘We will not have this man as our king.’
Nawe abhanu bhae nibhabhiililwa nibhatuma jintumwa bhagende okumulubha no kumubhwila ati, “Chitakwenda omunu unu achitunge.'
15 On his return, after having been appointed king, he directed that the servants to whom he had given his money should be summoned, so that he might learn what amount of trade they had done.
Mbe ejile amala okutunga nasubha ika nalagililabhaje abhagaya bhae bhanu ayanile jimpilya bhaje kwae, abhone okumenya ifaida inu bhabhwene kwo kwibhusha.
16 The first came up, and said ‘Sir, your ten pounds have made a hundred.’
Owo kwamba naja naikati, “Latabhugenyi, ilatili yao yebhuyemo ejindi ekumi.
17 ‘Well done, good servant!’ exclaimed the master. ‘As you have proved trustworthy in a very small matter, I appoint you governor over ten towns.’
Omukulu oyo namubhwila ati, wakondya, awe mugaya wakisi. Kulwokubha wabhee mwiikanyibhwa kuchinu chitoto, outunga misi ekumi.
18 When the second came, he said ‘Your ten pounds, Sir, have produced fifty.’
Naja owakabhili naikati, Latabhugenyi ilatili yao yebhuyemo ejindi etanu.
19 So the master said to him ‘And you I appoint over five towns.’
' Omukulu oyo namubhwilati, awe wona outunga misi etanu.'
20 Another servant also came and said ‘Sir, here are your ten pounds; I have kept them put away in a handkerchief.
Oundi naja naikati, Latabhugenyi lola ilatili yao, naibhikile mukenda,
21 For I was afraid of you, because you are a stern man. You take what you have not planted, and reap what you have not sown.’
Okubha nakubhaile okubha uli munu mululu. Ousoshao chinu utateewo no ougesa chinu utabhibhile.'
22 The master answered ‘Out of your own mouth I judge you, you worthless servant. You knew that I am a stern man, that I take what I have not planted, and reap what I have not sown?
Omukulu oyo namubhwilati,'Kwa magambo gao omwene enikulamula, awe omugaya omubhibhi. Waliga umenyele ati, anye ndi mululu na mukomee enigega chinu nitateewo no kugesa chinu nitayambile.
23 Then why didn’t you put my money into a bank? And I, on my return, could have claimed it with interest.
Mbe, niki chinu chakuiingiliye okubhayana jimpilya jani bhanu abhebhushamo anye nakejile ninsanga ifaida?
24 Take away from him the ten pounds,’ he said to those standing by, ‘and give them to the one who has the hundred.’
Omukulu nabhabhwila bhanu bhaliga bhemeleguyu ao ati, Mumuteshe chinu alinacho mumuyane owekumi.
25 ‘But, Sir,’ they said, ‘he has a hundred pounds already!’
Nibhamubhwila ati,”Latabhugenyi, omwene ali nalatili ekumi.”
26 ‘I tell you,’ he answered, ‘that, to him who has, more will be given, but, from him who has nothing, even what he has will be taken away.
Enibhabhwila ati, unu alinacho aliyanibhwa lindi, unu atanacho alitesibhwa na chinu ali nacho alitesibhwa.
27 But as for my enemies, these men who would not have me as their king, bring them here and put them to death in my presence.’”
Tali bhanu abhasoko bhani, bhanu bhatakwenda nibhatunge, mubhalete anu mubhete imbele yani.”
28 After saying this, Jesus went on in front, going up to Jerusalem.
Ejile Amala okwaika ejo, natangata nagenda Yelusalemu.
29 It was when Jesus had almost reached Bethphage and Bethany, near the Mount of Olives, that he sent on two of the disciples.
Anu aliga nalebhelela Betifage na Bethania, ayeyi ne China Cha Mizeituni, natuma abheigisibhwa bhae bhabhili,
30 “Go to the village facing us,” he said, “and, when you get there, you will find a foal tethered, which no one has yet ridden; untie it and lead it here.
Naikati, mugende mumusi gunu guli ayeyi mbe labha mwengilamo omusanga echinyala Cha insikili chinu chichali kulinywako. Muchisibhule muchilete kwanye.
31 And, if anybody asks you ‘Why are you untying it?’, you are to say this – ‘The Master wants it.’”
Omunu akabhabhusha, kulwaki omuchisibhula? Mwaike ati Latabhugenyi nuwe kachenda”
32 So the two who were sent went and found it as Jesus had told them.
Bhanu bhatumilwe nibhagenda nibhasanga echinyala Cha insikili lwa kutyo Yesu aliga abhabhwilie.
33 While they were untying the foal, the owners asked them – “Why are you untying the foal?”
Anu bhaliga nibhachisibhula echinyala Cha insikili bhakanyacho nibhabhabhwila ati, “Kulwaki omuchisibhula echinyala Cha insikili?
34 And the two disciples answered – “The Master wants it.”
Nibhaikati, Latabhugenyi nuwe achikenele.
35 Then they led it back to Jesus, and threw their cloaks on the foal and put Jesus on it.
Niwo, nibhamusilila Yesu, nibhanja emyenda jebhwe ingulu ye chinyala Cha insikili nibhamwinyanja Yesu ingulu ye chinyala.
36 As he went along, the people kept spreading their cloaks in the road.
Anu aliga nagenda abhanu nibhanja emyenda jebhwe munjila.
37 When he had almost reached the place where the road led down the Mount of Olives, everyone of the many disciples began in their joy to praise God loudly for all the miracles that they had seen:
Mbe, Anu aliga aliga natebhela kucholomoko che China Cha Mizeituni, abhanu bhona na bheigisibhwa bhae nibhamba okukondelwa no kumukusha Nyamuanga kwo bhulaka bhunene, kulwe bhilugulo bhyona bhinu bhalolele,
38 “Blessed is He who comes – our king – in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven, and glory on high.”
nibhaika, “Nuwe owalibhando Omukama unu kaja kwi Sina lya Latabhugenyi! Omulembe mu lwile na likusho ingulu!'
39 Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, restrain your disciples.”
Abhandi bha Mafalisayo mubhanu bhamfu nibhamubhwila ati, Omwiigisha, jibhisha abheigisibhwa bhao.'
40 But Jesus answered, “I tell you that if they are silent, the stones will call out.”
Yesu nasubhya naikati, 'Enibhabhwila ati, bhanu bhakajibhila, amabhui agaja omwaya.'
41 When he drew near, on seeing the city, he wept over it, and said,
Yesu ejile elila yeyi no musi nagulila,
42 “If only you had known, while yet there was time – even you – the things that make for peace! But now they have been hidden from your sight.
Naikati, kumba umenyele awe kulusiku lunu emisango Jo mulembe gwao! Tali woli jiselekelwe mumeso gao.
43 For a time is coming when your enemies will surround you with earthworks, and encircle you, and hem you in on all sides;
Okubha jinsiku jilikwijila any abhasoko bhao bhalikumbakako jingo ayeyi nawe, no kwiinda no kukuingilila okusoka bhulimbala.
44 they will trample you down and your children within you, and they will not leave in you one stone on another, because you did not know the time of your visitation.”
Bhalikugwisha ansi awe na bhana bhao. Bhatalikusigila nolo ebhui kwi bhui lyejabho, kulwokubha utamenyele omwanya anu Nyamuanga anu endaga okukukisha.'
45 Jesus went into the Temple Courts and began to drive out those who were selling,
Yes nengila Mwiyekalu, namba okubhabhilimya bhanu bhaliga nibhagusha,
46 saying as he did so, “Scripture says – ‘My house will be a house of prayer’; but you have made it a den of robbers.”
nabhabhwila ati,” Jandikilwe, 'Inyumba yani ilabhaga yo kusabhilwamo, 'tali emwe mwaikolele nsenga ya bhasakusi.”
47 Jesus continued to teach each day in the Temple Courts; but the chief priests and teachers of the Law were eager to take his life, and so also were the leaders of the people.
Kulwejo, Yesu aliga neigisha bhuli lunaku mwi yekalu. Abagabhisi bhakulu na bheigisha bhe bhilagilo na bhatangasha bha bhanu nibhenda okumwita,
48 Yet they could not see what to do, for the people all hung on his words.
Nawe bhatabhwene injila yo kukola kutyo, kulwokubha abhanu bhona bhaliga nibhamtegelesha muno.
