Luke 18
1 Then Jesus told them a parable about the need to pray at all times and not lose heart.
Neya nabhabhwila echijejekanyo kutyo jibheile okusabhwa bhasiga kufwa mwoyo.
2 He said, “In a certain city there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected man.
Naikati, Aliga alio mulamusi umwi, unu atamubhayaga Nyamuanga na atabhalaga bhanu.
3 There was also a widow in that city who kept coming to him and saying, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’
Aliga alimo omutumba gasi mumusi omwo, namujakoga kwiya ngendo nyamfu, naikati, 'Nsakila na undamule no kunana echibhalo chani no musokwa wani.'
4 For a while he would not do so, but afterward he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect man,
Mwanya mwamfu atendaga kumusakila, nawe eishe naika mumwoyo gwae, 'Nolo kutyo anye nitamubhaya Nyamuanga amwi nitakubhala munu,
5 yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will give her justice, so that she will not wear me out by continually coming to me.’”
Nawe kwokubha omutumba gasi kanyansha nimulamule nimuyane echibhalo chae asige okugendelela okunyegelela bhuli mwanya.”
6 Then the Lord said, “Hear what the unrighteous judge says.
Latabhugenyi naika ati, 'Mungwe omulamusi oyo atali mulengelesi kutyo kaika.
7 And will not God surely bring about justice to his chosen ones who cry out to him day and night, while also being patient with them?
Angu Nyamuanga atalilamula abhasolwa bhae bhanu abhamulilila mungeta na mumwisi? angu omwene atalibha mwikomelesha kubhene?
8 I tell you that he will bring about justice for them quickly. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”
Enibhabhwila ati, alibhalamula bhwangu. Nawe Omwana wa Adamu anu alibhaja mbe alisanga elikilisha kuchalo?
9 He also told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous and who regarded others with contempt:
Niwo nabhabhwila echijejekanyo chinu abhanu abhandi bhanu abhelola kutyo bhali bhalengelesi nibhagaya abhandi,
10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray. One was a Pharisee and the other was a tax collector.
'Bhanubhabhili bhalinyile mwiyekalu okusabhwa. oumwi Mufalisayo oundi omutobhesha wa likodi.
11 The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed like this: ‘God, I thank yoʋ that I am not like other people: swindlers, unrighteous, adulterers, or even like this tax collector.
Omufalisayo nemelegulu nasabhwa emisango jinu omwene,'Nyamuanga enikusima kulwokubha anye nitali lwa bhanu abhandi abhasakusi, abhajimya, abhalomesi, na nitali lwo mutobhesha wo bhushulu unu.
12 I fast twice a week, and I give tithes of all that I get.’
Anye enisalalila kwiya kabhili ku bhwoyo. Enigwata omugabho gwa likumi kubhinu bhyona bhinu enibhona.'
13 But the tax collector stood at a distance and would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, a sinner!’
Nawe uliya omutobhesha, emeleguyu alela, nalema okwimusha ameso gae kulwile, nebhuma bhuma muchifubha chae naikati,'Nyamuanga, mfwilwa chigongo anye nili webhibhibhi.'
14 I tell you, this man went down to his home justified rather than the other. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
Enibhabwila, omunu unu asubhile ika abhalilwe obhulengelesi kukila uliya kulwokubha bhuli unu kekusha alikeibhwa, nawe bhuli munu unu kekeya alikusibwa.'
15 Now people were even bringing their babies to Jesus so that he might touch them. When the disciples saw this, they rebuked those who were bringing them,
Abhanu nibhamuletela abhana bhebhwe abhalela, abhone okubhakunyako, abheigisibhwa bhae bhejile bhalola nibhabhaganya.
16 but Jesus called for them and said, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
Nawe Yesu nabhabhilikila kumwene naikati,'Mubhasige abhana abhalela bhaje kwanye, mutabhaganya. Kulwokubha obhukama bhwa Nyamuanga ni bhwa bhanu lwa bho.
17 Truly I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will certainly not enter it.”
Mwikilishe, enibhabhwilati, omunu wona wonaunu atabhulamila obhukama bhwa Nyamuanga lwo mwana omulela atalingilamo kata.'
18 Then a certain ruler asked him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
Mukulu umwi namubhusha naikati,'awe Omwiigisha wo bhwana nikole kutiki koleleki nilye omwandu gwo bhuanga bhwa kajanende?' (aiōnios g166)
19 Jesus said to him, “Why do yoʋ call me good? No one is good except God alone.
Yesu namubhwila ati, 'Kulwaki oumbilikila wo bhwana? Atalio munu unu ali wo bhwana, tali Nyamuanga wenyelela.
20 Yoʋ know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery, Do not murder, Do not steal, Do not give false testimony, Honor yoʋr father and yoʋr mother.’”
Umenyele ebhilagilo, utalomelega, utetaga, utebhaga, utabheeleshaga, ubhalega esomwana na nyokomwana.
21 The man said, “All these I have kept from my youth.”
Omukulu naikati, 'ago gona nigagwatile okusoka bhulela bhwani.'
22 When Jesus heard this, he said to him, “One thing yoʋ still lack: Sell everything yoʋ have and distribute the money to the poor, and yoʋ will have treasure in heaven; then come follow me.”
Yesu ejile ongwa ago namubhwila ati, “Gulio musango gumwi. Nibhusi bhusi ugushe bhinu ulinabhyo ugabhile abhataka niwo ulibha no bhunibhi mulwile niwo uje undubhe.
23 But when the man heard this, he became very sorrowful, for he was extremely rich.
'Nawe omunibhi ejile akongwa ejo nasulumbala muno okubha aliga alimunibhi muno.
24 When Jesus saw that the man had become very sorrowful, he said, “How difficult it will be for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God!
Neya Yesu, namulola kutyo asulumbala muno naikati, 'kukomee abhanibhi okwingila mubhukama bhwa Nyamuanga!
25 For it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.”
Okubha nichangu ingamila okufulumita mwiundu lya insinga kukila omunibhi okwingila mubhukama bhwa Nyamuanga.'
26 Those who heard this said, “Who then can be saved?”
Bhanu bhonguhye ago, nibhaikati, 'Kambe jili kutyo niga katula okukila?'
27 Jesus said, “What is impossible with men is possible with God.”
Yesu nasubhya naikati, 'Bhinu ebhitamya abhanu Nyamuanga kabhitula.”
28 Then Peter said, “Behold, we have left everything and followed yoʋ.”
Petelo naikati, Eswe, chisigile bhuli chinu nchikulubha awe.
29 Jesus said to them, “Truly I say to you, there is no one who has left house, parents, brothers, wife, or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God,
'Yesu nabhabhwila ati, Nichimali, enibhabhwila ati, atalio omunu unu kasiga inyumba, amwi mugasi, amwi bhamula bhabho, amwi bhebhusi amwi bhana kulwo bhukama bhwa Nyamuanga,
31 Then Jesus took the twelve aside and said to them, “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and everything that is written by the prophets about the Son of Man will be fulfilled.
Ejile akabhakumanya abho ekumi na bhabhili, nabhabhwila ati, 'Lola echigenda Yelusalemu, na jinu jona jandikilwe na bhalagi ku Mwana wa Adamu ejikumila.
32 For he will be delivered up to the Gentiles, and he will be mocked, insulted, and spit upon.
Kulwokubha kagwatwa nabha mumabhoko ga bhanu bhabhanyamaanga kajimibhwa, nibhamwimatulila, nibhamufubhulila amachwanta.
33 After flogging him, they will kill him, and on the third day he will rise again.”
Bhalimusanya jinsanju nibhamwita na kulusiku lwa kasatu alisuluka.'
34 But the disciples did not understand any of these things; this statement was hidden from them, and they did not comprehend what was being said.
Bhatasombokewe omusango ogwo, gwaliga gwibhisile kubhene, bhatamenyele jinu aikaga.
35 As Jesus drew near to Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the road begging.
Anu Yesu afogelee Yeliko, omunu umwi muofu aliga enyanjile mulubhaju lwa injila nasabhilishaga.
36 When he heard a crowd going by, he asked what was happening.
Ejile ogwa bhanu bhamfu nibhatulao nasubhyati echo niki.
37 They told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.
Nibhamubhwila ati ni Yesu wa Najaleti nuwe kalabhao.
38 So he cried out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”
Mbe omuofu nalila kwo bhulaka bhwa ingulu naikati, 'Yesu omwana wa Daudi, umfwile chigongo. '
39 Then those who were out in front rebuked him, telling him to be silent. But he cried out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
Bhanu bhaliga nibhalibhata nibhamuganya omuofu oyo, nibhamubhwila ajibhile. Nawe omwene nagendelela okulila kwo bhulaka, Omwana wa Daudi, umfwile chigongo.
40 So Jesus stopped and ordered the man to be brought to him. When the man drew near, Jesus asked him,
Yesu nemelegulu nabhalagila nabhabhwila bhamulete. Omuofu ejile amulebhelela, Yesu namubhusha ati,
41 “What do yoʋ want me to do for yoʋ?” He said, “Lord, I want to receive my sight.”
'Owenda nikukole kutiki? Naikati, Latabhugenyi, enenda okulola.'
42 So Jesus said to him, “Receive yoʋr sight; yoʋr faith has healed yoʋ.”
Yesu namubhwila ati, 'mbe lola. Okwikilisha kwao kwakwiulisha.'
43 Immediately he received his sight and began following Jesus, glorifying God. And when all the people saw it, they gave praise to God.
Ao nao nalola, namulubha Yesu namukusha Nyamuanga. Bhejile bhalola elyo, abhanu bhona nibhamukusha Nyamuanga.
