Luke 12
1 And when great multitudes were assembled by myriads, so that they trod one upon another, Jesus began to say to his disciples: First of all, beware for yourselves of that leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.
Munako zana, chikiti chavantu chibena hamwina, mbwita nibalilyata jo bungi, chatanga kuwamba kuva rutwana bakwe, Mutokomere mulungo wava Farisi, iri kuliha
2 For there is nothing hidden, which will not be revealed; nor concealed, that will not be known.
Kono kakwina chinchinte, chete nichi kanwe kwi zibahazwa,
3 For whatever ye speak in the dark, will be heard in the light; and what in secret chambers, ye whisper in the ear, will be proclaimed on the house-tops.
Cwale chose cimu va wambi mwififi kachi zibahazwe mwiseli, mi chimubali kushovota muma ntwi kachi huwerezwe hakantungandi ke zuvo.
4 And to you, my friends, I say: Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and afterwards have nothing more they can do.
Ni wamba kwenu balikani, kanji muntiyi behaya mubili, kuzwa ho kavena chimwi chiva ola kupanga,
5 But I will show you, of whom to be afraid: of him who, after he hath killed, hath authority to cast into hell. Yea, say I to you: be afraid of him. (Geenna g1067)
Kono me ni mikalimera kuamana neni umowola kutiya. Mutiye yenke uzo Hamana kwi haya, wina ziho zo kutumina mwi here, Eye, Ni miwambira, mumutiye. (Geenna g1067)
6 Are not five sparrows sold for two assarii? and not one of them is forgotten before God.
Kena kuti tuzuni tukuma he yanza limwina tu uziwa hetenko i likana tukoviri to Vere? Kono nanganti konke kutuli kase hupulwa kweIreza.
7 And as for you, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not, therefore; for ye are superior to many sparrows.
Kono nangati i mpalo ye nsunki nzenu ivalitwe, Kanji mutiyi. Mwina butokwa kuhita tuzuni tungi.
8 And I say to you, that every one that shall confess me before men, the Son of man will also confess him before the angels of God.
Ni wamba kwenu, yense yo niwamba havusu bwa bantu, Mwana u muntu kaka muwambe naye habusu bwa mañiloyi e Ireza.
9 But he that shall deny me before men, shall himself be denied before the angels of God.
kono nyense yo nisampula havusu bwa Vvantu kaka sampulwe havunsu bwa mañiloyi e Reza.
10 And every one that shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but he that shall reproach the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him.
Yense yo wamba linzwi ivilala kuamana ni mwana wo Muntu, ka wonderwe awo mazwi, kono kozo yo wamba vuvilala kuamana ni Luhuho lu Njolola, kasana a wonderwe.
11 And when they shall bring you into the synagogues, before chiefs and men in authority, be not anxious how ye shall make defence, or what ye shall say;
Hasana kava mi lete havusu bwa masinangonge, va yendisi, ni vena ha muvuso, kanji ni muvireri kuamana nimwete ni mwi tavire ku amana ni kulizimanina, kamba chete ni muwambe,
12 for the Holy Spirit will, in that hour, instruct you what to say.
kakuli Luhuho lu Njolola kalumi ka lumi lute mweyo nako chizi chi muswanera kuwamba.
13 And one of the assembly said to him: Teacher, tell my brother, to divide the inheritance with me.
Linu zumwi mukati kechisi cha cho kwali, “Muruti, wambire mukulwangu kuti a liyavire chifumu chavayoli name.”
14 But Jesus said to him: Man, who established me a judge and distributor over you?
Jesu cha kwa li, “Mukwame, Jeni wani vika mu atuli kamba muzimanini hakati kenu?”
15 And he said to his disciples: Beware of all avarice, for life consisteth not in abundance of riches.
Mi chati kuvali muli tokomere kobona kuti mulizwisa ku takazo yonse yomuuna, kakuti vuhalpo vo muntu kabwina vulyo hachi fumu chali kunganize muntu.”
16 And he spoke to them a similitude: The land of a certain rich man brought forth produce in abundance.
Linu Jesu chava wambira i nguli, ni kucho Iuwa lo mukwame yavali kufumite, luvali kuvikite ahulu,
17 And he considered with himself, and said: What shall I do; for I have not where I can store up my produce?
mi chali wambira ni kucho, chizi chete ni pange kakuli kanina chiviko cho kuvika zilyo zina lima?
18 And he said: This will I do; I will pull down my storehouses, and build them larger; and there will I store up all my corn and my good things:
Cha wamba, í chi jichona chete ni pange. Mu ni wise hansi zishente zangu ni kuzaka zikando ahulku, umo mwete ni vinke vuhenke bwangu vonse ni zimwi zimera zete ni sinze.
19 and I will say to my soul: My soul, thou hast good things in abundance, which are stored up for many years; take thy ease; eat, drink, and live in pleasure.
Muni wambe ku luhuho lwangu, “luhuho, wina zilyo zingi zisizitwe zonso seberise zirimo zingi. Pumule hande, lye, nwe, unsese.”
20 But God said to him: Thou void of reason! This night, thy soul will be required of thee; and to whom will belong these things provided by thee?
Kono Ireza cha cho kwali, 'Chihole cho mukwame, masiku a nsunu luhuho lwako luhindiwa kwanko, mi nzintu ziwa lukisa, muzive zani?'
21 Such is he that layeth up treasures for himself, and is not rich in God.
China mwe kalire muntu yoli kunganyiza chifumu kwali mi kafumite havusu bwe Ireza.”
22 And he said to his disciples: Therefore I tell you, Be not anxious for your life, what ye shall eat; nor for your body, what ye shall put on.
Jesu cha wamba kuva lutwana bakwe, “Cwale he nicho kwenu, kanji muivireri kuamana ni vuhalo bwenu - chizi chese mulye, kamba kuyana nizo mubiri wenu - chinzi chete muzwate.
23 For the life is more important than food, and the body than raiment.
Kakuti vuhalo bwina butokwa kuhita zilyo, mi muviri wina butokwa kuhita zizwato.
24 Consider the ravens, which sow not, nor reap, nor have cellars and storehouses; yet God provideth them food. How much more important now are ye, than the birds!
Mulemuhe ma ñwarara, kuti kava byali kamba kusiza. Kazina zivinko kamba zishete, kono Ireza uzilelra. Muvo vutokwa vule kuhita zizuni!
25 And which of you, by taking pains, can add one cubit to his stature?
Mi jeni kwenu choku virera u wola kuyekeza i zuva kuvuhalo bwakwe?
26 And if ye are impotent for that which is least, why are ye anxious about the rest?
Cwale haiva kamu oli kupanga nanga nti chitu chinini, chinzi hamu virera kuamana ni nzonse?
27 Consider the lilies, how they grow: they toil not, nor do they spin. Yet I say to you, that not even Solomon in all his glory, was clothed like one of these.
Mulemuhe tuyanga yanga mutumenena - zikula vule. Kazi sevezi, kamba kuhosa. Kono ni cho kwenu, nanga Salumoni mwi kanya yakwe kenba aba zwatikiwa uvu ji limwi.
28 And if God so clothe the herb, which to-day exists in the field, and to-morrow falls into the oven, how much more you, ye little in faith?
Haiva Iraza uzwatika lyani lyomukanda, lina kwateni nsunu, mi inzona lizindirwa muhisa, inwe cwale mwa mizwatike vule, mawe inwe ve tumero inini!
29 And inquire not, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor let your mind wander upon these things.
Kanji mungani zete mulye kamba zete munwe kanji mu vireri.
30 For all these things the people of the world seek after; and your father knoweth that, for you also, these things are needful.
Kakuli inkanda zonse ze fasi bangana inzi nzintu, mi Ishenu wizi kuti musaka inzi zintu.
31 But seek ye the kingdom of God, and all these things will be added to you.
Kono musake mubuso wakwe, mi inzi zintu ka muziyekerezwe.
32 Fear not, little flock; for your Father is disposed to give you the kingdom
Kanji mutiyi, tumberere tunini, kakuli i shenu i sangitwe kumiha Muvuso.
33 Sell your property, and give alms: make for yourselves bags that do not become old, and a treasure that is not transient, in the heavens; where no thief approacheth, and no moth eateth.
Mu uze maluwo enu mi muhe kuva shevete. Muli pangire ziviko zisa woli kusupala - Vufumu mwi wulu muzisa mani, uko kusengiri vasa mi Ifulapepe kuzisa shinyi.
34 For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be.
Kakuti kwina chifumu chenu, uko ni inkulo yenu kwete ive nayo.
35 Let your loins be girded, and your lamps burning.
Imunda zenu zisuminwe muma tunga mi malambi enu a zwirenhavusu ni kumbukuka,
36 And be ye like persons who are waiting for their lord, when he shall return from the house of feasting, that, when he shall come and knock, they may open to him immediately.
mi muswane uvu vantu bakwete kulola muyendisi wavo chakavola kumukiti we senso, iri kuti cha keza ni kwiza kungongo ta, yahaho bamwi yalwira mulyango.
37 Happy are those servants, whom their lord, when he cometh, shall find so doing. Verily I say to you: He will gird his loins, and make them recline, and will pass around and serve them.
Imbuyoti yaba bahikana, vesana keza wanikize niva lindire chakeza. Chama niti ni miwambire kuti keza nsumine ziwato zakwe zile mumunda che tunga, ni kuve kalika hasi kuzilyo, mi mwakeze nikwiza kuva haza.
38 And if in the second watch, or in the third, he shall come and so find them, happy are those servants.
Haiva muyendisi ukeza malunga siku, kamba kalya butatu bwe nako, ni kwiza kuva wana vali tukise, Imbuyoti zavo vahikana.
39 And this know ye, that if the lord of the house had known at what watch the thief would come, he would have been awake and would not have suffered his house to be broken into.
Konohape mwizive inchi, kuti haiva muyendisi we nzuvo ave zivite inako iyo musa avali kukeza, nasana a va siyiriri inzuvo yakwe ni iñatulwa.
40 Therefore be ye also ready; for at an hour that ye think not, the Son of man cometh.
Mulitukiseze nanwe vulyo, kakuti kamwizi inako iyo mwana o Muntu sana keze.”
41 Simon Cephas saith to him: Our Lord, speakest thou this similitude to us, or also to all men?
Pitorosi chati, “Simwine, uwambira iyi nguli kwetu fera, kamba niku vantu vonse?”
42 Jesus said to him: Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom his lord will place over all his domestics, to give them their portion in due time?
Mi Simwine chati, “Njeni he you sepahala ni kutalifa muyendisi simwine yata vike vuyendisi he wulu lya va hikana kuti a kuva hanga zilyo che nako iswanera?
43 Happy is that servant whom his lord, when he cometh, shall find so doing.
Ufuyaulitwe uzo muhikana, uzo muyendisi wakwe keza wane napanga izo hakeza.
44 Verily I say to you: He will place him over all his possessions.
Cheniti niwamba kwenu kamuvike vuyendisi bwe luwo lyakwe.
45 But if that servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; and shall begin to smite the servants and the maidens of his lord; and shall begin to eat and to drink and be drunk;
Kono haiva uzo muhikana nali wambnira mwinkulo ya kwe, 'Simwine wangu unlyeha kuku vola; mi utanga ku mbupola bahikana vava kwame ni ve chanakazi Vahikana, ni kulya ni nwa, ni kukolwa,
46 the lord of that servant will come in a day he thinketh not, and in an hour he knoweth not, and will cut him in two; and will assign him his portion with them that are unfaithful.
simwine wozuna mu hikana kakeze mwizuba lyasa mulindire, ni mwi nako yasenzi mi kamu konsole mutu vindivindi nikumu tumina kuchi vaka chimwi navana vasasepahali.
47 And the servant that knew his lord's pleasure, and did not prepare for him according to his pleasure, shall be beaten with many stripes.
Zuna muhikana, hace zivite mihupulo ya simwine wakwe, mi kena ava lukise kamba kuyendereza mwa sakira, kakaviwe cha mafaindi mangi.
48 But he that knew not, yet did that which deserved stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For to whomsoever much is given, from him will much be required; and to whom much is committed, the more will be required at his hand.
Kono uzo yasana a bezivite, kakaviwe chama faindi mache. Zumwi ni zumwi kwali kuherwe a hulu, zingi kazi sakahane kwali, mi kwali vava sepahali ahulu, kava vuze zingi ahulu kwali.
49 I have come to cast fire on the earth; and I would, that it already burned.
Ni vakezi kuzindira muliro mwi kanda, mi muni sangirwa kuti kamba ciwuva mbukulwa kale.
50 And I have a baptism to be baptized with; and I am much pressed until it be accomplished.
Kono nina i nkolovezo ini swanera kukolovezwa chayo, mi kaini kalikite hande konji chiya lizuziriza!
51 Suppose ye, that I have come to produce tranquillity on the earth? I tell you, No: but division.
Muhupula kuti ni va kezi kuleta inkozo mwi ikanda? Ne, Ni ki wambira, kono niva leti ikauhano.
52 For from this time, there will be five persons in one house, who will be divided, three against two, and two against three.
Cwale kuzwa hanu kuya kuvusu, mukube mwizuvo nyonke inkauhano zeyanza lyonke - vantu vo tatwe kulyisa vovere, vantu vo vere kulwisa vantu vo tatwe.
53 For a father will be divided against his son, and a son against his father; a mother against her daughter, and a daughter against her mother; a mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
Kava kauhane mushemi we chikwame kulwisa mwana kwe we chiswisu, ni mwana we chiswisu kulwisa isi; mushemi we chanakazi kulwisa mwanakwe we chikazana, ni mwana kazana kulwisa nyina; mukwenyani we chanakazi kulwisa mukwenyana kwe we chikazana, ni mukwenyani we chikazana kulwisa mukwenyanakwe we chanakazi.”
54 And he said to the multitudes: When you see a cloud rising out of the west, ye at once say: Rain is coming; and it is so.
Jesu avali kuwamba ni kuchisi bulyo,”Hamubona i kope lizimana kubwimino, yahaho mu wamba, 'I vula ikezite; mi iza kuva bulyo.
55 And when a south wind bloweth, ye say: It will be hot: and it is so.
Mi haiva luhuho lo kwiyaza lye chimonso ni hunga, mu wamba, 'Mukuhise a hulu nsunu; mi kwiza kuva vulyo.
56 Ye hypocrites, ye know how to distinguish the aspect of the heavens and the earth; and why can ye not distinguish the present time?
Balihere, mwinzi kutoloka mayemo e kanda ni e wulu, linu vule hape hamusezi muku tolokerwa i nako ya hanu?
57 And why do ye not, of yourselves, judge correctly?
Chinzi hamusa atuli zina hande kwenu?
58 And when thou goest with thy adversary to the ruler, while on the way, make effort to be released by him; lest he bring thee to the judge and the judge deliver thee to the exactor, and the exactor cast thee into prison.
Kakuli haiva no yenda niyo ku zekisa kumu atuli, mu zira ulike ahulu kuti mumane indava naye, iri kuli kanji naka kutambinki kumu atuli, mi kuti muatuli kanji a kaku tambiki kumu yendisi, mi munyendisi kanji a kakusoheri mwi ntorongo.
59 For verily I say to thee: Thou wilt not come out thence, until thou pay the last mite.
Ni wamba kwenu, kasana ko zwe mwateni konji hete no lihire ishereñi yama manimani yo kwete.”
