< Luke 8 >

1 Soon after that, Jesus went, along with his twelve [disciples], through various cities and villages. As they went, he was telling people the good message about how God wants (to have complete control/to rule) [MET] [over their lives].
Gwejile gwalabhao mwanya mufuyi Yesu namba okugenda mumisi emitoto ne misi minene, nasimula no kulasha emisango jo bhwana jo bhukama bhwa Nyamuanga na bhaliya ekumi na bhabhili bhagendaga amwi nage.
2 Some women from whom he had expelled evil spirits and healed of diseases also [went with him]. These included Mary, the woman from Magdala [village], from whom [he had expelled] seven evil spirits;
kutyo kutyo bhagasi bhalebhe bhanu bhaliga bhaosibhwe okusoka ku masambwa amabhibhi na malwae gabhuli mbaga. Aliga ali Maliyamu unu atogwaga Magedalena unu aliga asosibhweko amasabwa saba.
3 Joanna, the wife of Chuza, who was one of [King] Herod [Antipas’] officials; Susanna; and many others. They were providing some of their own funds [to help Jesus and his disciples].
Yowana omugasi wa Kuza na omukulu wa Helode, Susana, na bhagasi abhandibhamfu, bhanu bhasosishe ebhinu bhyebhwe kwainjuno yebhwe abhene.
4 A large crowd of people came to Jesus from many towns. Then he told them this parable:
Bhejile abhanu bhamfu bhakekumanya amwi, bhalimo na bhanu bhajaga kumwene okusoka mumisi jabhuli mbaga, alomele nabho kwebhijejekanyo.
5 “A man went out [to his field] to sow [some] seeds. As he was scattering them over the soil, some [of the seeds] fell on the path. Then [people] walked on those seeds, and birds ate them.
Omuyambi agendele okubhibha jimbibho, anu aliga nayamba, jimbibho ejindi nijigwa kumbali ya injila nijilibhatwa emwalo ya magulu, na jinyonyi ja mulutumba nijijilya.
6 Some [of the seeds] fell on rock [on which there was a thin layer of] moist [soil]. As soon as the seeds grew, the plants dried up because they had no moisture.
Jimbibho ejindi nijigwa ingulu ya mayalu ganu gali kulutale na jejile jamela nijamba ofuka nijiotoka kulwokubha aliga gutalio munyililo.
7 Some [of the seeds] fell on [ground that contained roots of] thorny [weeds]. The thorny weeds grew [together] with the young plants, and [they] crowded out [those plants].
Jimbibho ejindi nijigwa mumati na mumawa, amati ago agamawa nigakula amwi na jimbibho ejo niga jinyiga.
8 But some of the seeds fell on good soil and grew [well]. [Each seed later] produced 100 [grains].” Then Jesus called out to them, “If you want to understand [MTY] this, you must consider [carefully what I have just said]!”
Nawe jimbibho ejindi jaguye mumayalu ga kisi nijibhula amatwasho kukila egana.”Yesu ejile amala okwaika amagambo ago, alomele kwo bhulaka bhunene naikati,”Wona wona unu ali na matwi no gwe.”
9 Jesus’ disciples [later] asked him about the meaning of the parable [he had just told].
Lindi abheigisibhwa bhae nibhamubhusha ingulu ye chijejekanyo echo,
10 He said, “God is revealing to you what he did not reveal before, about [how he wants to] rule [MET] [over people’s lives]. But when I am telling other people about [these things, I tell them] only in parables. The result will be [like a prophet predicted long ago]: They will see [what I am doing], but will not perceive [what it means]. They will hear [what I am saying], but will not understand [it].
Yesu nabhabhila ati,”Muyanibhwe okumenya imbisike yo bhukama bhwa Nyamuanga, tali abhanu abhandi abheeigisibhwa ku lwebhijejekanyo ela, koleleki bhakalola bhatajakulola na bhakongwa bhatajakusombokelwa.'
11 So this is the meaning of that parable: The seeds [represent] God’s message.
Na inu niyo insonga ye chijejekanyo chinu. Imbibhoni nigambo lya Nyamuanga.
12 [Some people are like] the path on which some of [the seeds fell]. When these people hear God’s message, the devil comes and causes them to forget what they have heard. As a result, they do not believe it, and will not be saved {[God] will not save them}.
Jimbibho jinu jaguye ayeyi na kunjila nibho bhanu bhanu abhongwa omusango, omusoko shetani nalisoshamo mumioyo jebhwe, koleleki bhasige okwikilisha nokuchungulwa.
13 [Some people are like] the [soil with] rock [underneath]. When they hear [God’s] message, they accept it joyfully. [But because it does not penetrate deeply] [MET] [into their inner beings], they believe it for [only] a [short] time. [They are like the plants that] did not have [deep] roots. When difficult things happen to them, they stop believing [God’s message].
Jinu jaguye kulutale ni bhanu bhanu abhongwa omusango nokugulamila kwo kusandabha nawe bhatali na misi jonajona, abhekilisha kwo mwanya mufuyi, no mwanya gwokulegejibhwa nibhagwa.
14 [Some people are like] the [soil that had roots of] thorny [weeds] in it. They are people who accept [God’s message], but later on they worry about things, and try to become rich, and enjoy [things that give them] a lot of pleasure. So they do not become [spiritually] mature.
Na jimbibho jinu jaguye mumawa ni bhanu bhanu abhongwa omusango, nawe bhakagendelela okukula nibhaingililwa nokufulubhendela obhunibhi no bhukonde bhwo bhulame na bhatakwibhula matwasho.
15 But [some people are like] the good soil. They hear [God’s] message and accept it. They [become] good, honest people, and they continue doing things [that please God] [MET].”
Nawe jimbibho jinu jaguye mumayalu gakisi nibhanu bhanu, bhali nobhikeyi ne mioyo jakisi, bhakongwa omusango abhaligwatilila na abhebhula amatwasho go kwikomesha.
16 “After people light a lamp, they do not cover it with a basket or put it under a bed. Instead, they put it on a lampstand, so that those who enter [their house] can see [things from] its light [MET]. [Similarly, you must tell God’s truth to others so that they can know what I can do for them].
Woli anu, atalio nolo umwi, unu kakongesha itala naifundikila naimbakuli au naita mubhutalaasi. Nalema okuita kungango koleleki bhuli unu kengila abhone okuilola.
17 [God wants to] make clear all [of his truth] that was not evident previously. [He intends] that all of [the truth] that [he] had not revealed before be told openly {that [his people] openly tell [others] all [of the truth] that [he] has not revealed before}.
Kulwokubha chitalio chinu chiliseleka nichilema okumenyekana, au chonachona chinu chili cha mumbisike chinu chitali bhonekana kubwelu.
18 So listen carefully [to what I tell you], because [God] will enable those who accept [my truth] to [understand even] more. But [God] will cause those who do not accept [my truth] to not understand even [the little] that they think they have [understood].”
Kulwejo nubhe mwengeso anu ulabhaga nutegelesha. Kulwokubha unu ali nacho, kongesibhwa lindi, nawe unu atanacho nolo kanu alinako akatilu kona akagegibhwa.”
19 [One day Jesus’] mother and his [younger] brothers came to see him, but they could not get near him because there was a large crowd [around him in the house].
Eile nyilamwene Yesu na bhamula bhabho nibhaja kumwene bhatamulebhelee kulwokubha lyaliga lilio eijo enene lya bhanu.
20 Someone told him, “Your mother and your [younger] brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.”
Nibhamubhwila,”Nyokomwana na bhamula bhanyu bhalianja abhakwenda.
21 He replied, “Those who hear God’s message and obey it are [as dear to me] [MET] as my mother and my brothers.”
Nawe Yesu, nabhasubhya naikati,”Mayi wani na bhamula bhasu ni bhanu abhongwa omusango gwa Nyamuanga no kugwimako.”
22 One day Jesus got into a boat with his disciples. He said to them, “Let’s go [around to] the other side of the lake.” So they started to go.
Munaku ejo Yesu na bheigisibhwa bhae nibhalinya mubhwato, nabhabhwila ati, “Chambuke chigende ku ngego ya kabhili yo mwalo.” Nibhachumachuma obhwato bhwebhwe.
23 As they were sailing, he fell asleep. A big windstorm struck the lake. Soon the boat was filling with water, and they were in danger.
Nawe bhejile bhamba okwimuka, Yesu namama naongela, nomuyaga mwamfu ogwe chiule, obhwato bhwebhwe nibhwijula amanji bhaliga bhali munyanko nene muno.
24 Jesus’ disciples woke him up. They said [to him], “Master! Master! We [(inc)] are going to drown!” He got up and rebuked the wind and told the waves to be calm. The wind [immediately] stopped blowing and the waves calmed down. [The lake] became calm.
Bheile abheigisibhwa bhae nibhamwimusha, nibhaikati,”Latabhugenyi mkulu! Latabhugenyi mkulu! chiliayeyi okufwa!”Nemuka nagonya omuyaga na makonjo ga manji nigafungama na ndibha etole.
25 He said to them, “(I [am disappointed that] you did not trust me [to help you]!/Why did you not trust me [to help you]?)” [RHQ] They were afraid. They were also amazed. They said to each other, “(What kind of man is this?/This man is not like ordinary men!) [RHQ] He [not only commands people, but] when he commands the wind and the water, they also obey him!”
Lindi nabhabhwila ati,”Elikilisha lyemwe liliaki?”Nibhobhaya, Nibhatanga'ngala, nibhaikana bhuli munu no wejabho,”Unu niga, unu kagonya omuyaga na manji nigafung'ama?”
26 Jesus and his disciples arrived at the region near Gerasa, a [town] which [was on the eastern] side of Lake [Galilee].
Nibhakinga mumusi gwa Gelasini inu ili inyuma yo musi gwa Galilaya.
27 [There was] a man [in that region] in whom demons lived. [He was] from the town [of Gerasa]. (OR, [In that area there was] a man [from that town] whom demons controlled.) For a long time he had not worn clothes. He did not live in a house. Instead, he lived in burial caves.
Yesu ejile atuka nataja kuchalo, omunu umwi okusoka mujini, nabhugangana nage, no munu unu aliga ali na masabhwa. kwo mwanya mulela aliga atakufwala ngubho, na aliga atakwikala munyumba, tali aliga nekala enu bhasikaga abhafuye.
28 Many times [demons] attacked him. He was guarded {[People] tried to guard him} [so that he would not injure others]. Chains were fastened {They fastened chains} on his hands and shackles on his feet, but he would break the chains and shackles. Then he would be sent away by the demons {the demons would send him away} to some desolate area. When Jesus stepped out of the boat onto the shore, the man saw him. He [ran to Jesus] and prostrated himself before him. Then Jesus commanded, “You evil spirit, come out of that man!” But it [did not leave immediately. Instead, it] caused the man to shout very loudly, “Jesus, Son of the great God in heaven, since we [(inc)] have nothing in common, [leave me alone] [RHQ]! I beg you, do not torture me [now]!”
Ejile amulola Yesu nalila kwo bhulaka, nagwa ansi imbele yae. kwo bhulaka bhunene naikati, Nakoleleki anye kwawe, Yesu omwana wa Nyamuanga unu ali ingulu? Enikulembeleja, utaja kunyasha anye”
Yesu nalagilila amasabwa ago amabhibhi gamusokeko omunu oyo, kulwokubha mwanya mwamfu aliga asalile. Nolwo kutyo aliga abhoelwe ne minyololo no kutulwa ansi yo bhangalisi, abhutulaga nokulibhasibhwa okukinga mwibhala.
30 [In order to expel the demon more easily], Jesus asked [the demon], “What is your [(sg)] name?” He replied, “My name is Crowd/Mob.” [He said that] because many demons had entered that man.
Yesu namubhusha ati,”Lisina lyao nawega?”nasubhya naikati, “Legioni”Kulwokubha amasabwa mamfu gengiye kumwene.
31 [The demons] kept begging [Jesus] that he would not command them to go into the deep place [where God punishes demons]. (Abyssos g12)
Njigendelela okumulembeleja utachilagilila okuja mulyobho. (Abyssos g12)
32 There was a large herd of pigs (grazing/rooting for food) on the hillside. The demons begged Jesus that he allow them to enter the pigs. So he did.
Liijo lya jingulubhe lyaliga ndilebhwa ingulu ya libhanga, nibhamulembeleja abhabhile bhengile mu ngulubhe. Nabhekilisisha bhakole kutyo.
33 The demons left the man and entered the pigs. Then the herd [of pigs] rushed down the steep bank into the lake and drowned.
Kulwejo amasabwa ago nigamusokako omunu oyo nigengila mungulubhe, na liijo nilibhilimila kuchima nibhagwilila mumanji nibhafwila omwo.
34 When the men who were taking care of the pigs saw what happened, they ran! They told people inside the town and outside the town what had happened.
Abhanu bhanu bhaliga nibhalebha jingulubhe ejo bhejile bhalola chinu chabhao, nibhabhilima na nibhajaokwaika mumusi na mumisi jinu jaliga jibheindileko.
35 So people went out to see what had happened. When they came to where Jesus was, they saw that the man from whom Jesus had [expelled] the demons was sitting at the feet of Jesus, [listening to him]. He had clothes on, and his mind was normal again. Then those people became afraid [because they thought that Jesus would destroy more of their property] (OR, [because they realized that he must be very powerful]).
Abhanu bhejile bhakongwa ago nibhaja okulola jinu jabhonekana, na nibhaja ku Yesu nibhamulola omunu amasabhwa galiga gamusokeleko. aliga afwae kisi na ali no bhwenge bhwa kisi, enyanjile kumagulu ga Yesu, nibhobhaya.
36 The people who had seen what happened told those [who had just arrived] how [Jesus] had healed the man whom demons were controlling [before].
Niwo oumwi webhwe unu alolele chinu chabhonekene namba okubhabhwila abhandi kutyo omunu oyo unu aliga natangasibhwa na masabhwa kutyo eulisibhwa.
37 Then [those people and] many other people [HYP] from the area near Gerasa asked Jesus to leave their area. They were very afraid of [what else Jesus would do to them]. So [Jesus and the disciples] got into the boat to go back across the lake.
Abhanu bhona abhomukowa gwa Wagelasi na bhanu bhaliga bhasijene nibhamusabhwa Yesu abhasokeko kulwokubha bhaliga bhali no bhubha bhamfu. Nengila mubhwato nasubhayo.
38 The man from whom he had [expelled] the demons begged him saying, “[Please], let me go with you!” But [Jesus refused. Instead], he said to him,
Omunu unu asosibhweko emisabhwa namulembeleja Yesu agende nage, nawe Yesu namubhwila agende no kwaikati,
39 “[No], go home and tell people how much God has done for you!” Then he sent him away. So the man went away and told people throughout the nearby town how much Jesus had done for him.
“Subha mumusi gwao na ubhale gona ganu Nyamuanga akukolela”. Omunu oyo nagenda, nalasha mumusi gwona ganu Yesu amukolela omwene,
40 When [Jesus and the disciples] returned [to Capernaum], a crowd of people who had been waiting for him welcomed him.
Yesu nasubha, abhanu bhamfu nibhamulamila, kulwokubha bhona bhaliga bhamutegelee.
41 Just then a man named Jairus, who was one of the leaders (of the synagogue/of the Jewish meeting place) [there], came near and prostrated himself at Jesus’ feet. He pleaded with Jesus, “Please come to my house [and heal my daughter],
Lola naja munu umwi unu atogwaga Yailo ni umwi wa bhatangasha mulikofyanyisho. Yailo nagwa mumagulu ga Yesu namwilembeleja agende ika ewae.
42 my only daughter, who is about twelve years old, because she is dying!” As Jesus went with him, many people crowded close to Jesus.
Kulwokubha aliga ali no mwana muyala umwila, unu aliga ali ne miyaka kumi ne bhili, ali mumwanya gwo kufwa. Anu aliga nagenda, bhanu bhamfu nibhamuiganya omwene.
43 Then a woman came near. She had been suffering from constant [vaginal] [EUP] bleeding for twelve years, but she could not be healed by anyone {no one could heal her}.
Omugasi unu aululaga insagama kwe miyaka ekumi ne bhili aliga alio awo amalile jiela jae kubhafumu, nawe atalio na umwi unu aliga amuosishe.
44 She came behind [Jesus] and touched the edge of his robe [in order to be healed]. At once her bleeding stopped.
Naja inyuma ya Yesu nakunyako kwipindo lyo mwenda gwae, aonao okusoka insagama kwae nikutemekela.
45 Jesus said, “Who touched me?” When everyone said that they had not touched him, Peter said, “Lord, there is a large crowd of people around you [(sg)] and crowding against you, [so any one of them might have touched you]!”
Yesu naikati, Niga unu ankunyako?”Bhejile bhalema bhona, Petelo naikati, Latabhugenyi, abhanu ni bhamfu munu bhanu abhakukula no kukuiganya.”
46 But Jesus said, “[I know that] someone [deliberately] touched me, [because] my power has healed someone [who touched me].”
Nawe Yesu naikati,”Omunu umwi ankunyako, okubha namenya amanaga gansokamo.”
47 When the woman realized that she could not prevent [Jesus] (OR, [people]) from knowing that [she was healed], her body began to shake. [She was afraid that because she had disobeyed the law that a woman with such a condition should not touch others, Jesus might scold her for doing that]. She prostrated herself before Jesus. As the other people were listening, she told why she had touched him and how she had been healed immediately.
Omugasi ejile alolati atakutula kuseleka chinu akola, namba okuyalala, nagwa ansi imbele ya Yesu nabhwila abhanu bhona chinu chakola amukunyeko na kutyo eulisibhwa aonao.
48 [Jesus] said to her, “(Ma’am/My dear woman), because you believed [PRS] [that I could heal you, I] have healed you. Go [from here, and may you experience God’s] peace [within you].”
Neya naika nage ati,”Muyala, elikilisha lyao lyakola ubhe muanga. Genda no mulembe.”
49 While he was still talking [to her], a man from Jairus’ house came and said to Jairus, “Your daughter has died. So (it is useless that you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]!/why do you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]?) [RHQ]”
Mbe anu aliga achaika, omunu umwi naja okusoka munyumba yo mutangasha we likofyanyisho, naikati,”Omuyansha wao afuye. Siga okumunyasha omwiigisha.”
50 But when Jesus heard that, he said to Jairus, “Do not think that there is nothing more that can be done. Just believe that [I can help her. If you(sg) do that], she will live again.”
Nawe Yesu ejile ongwa kutyo, namusubhya naikati,”Utaja kubhaya. Ikilishala, nakakila.”
51 When they arrived outside Jairus’ house, Jesus allowed only Peter, John, James, and the girl’s mother and father to go in Jairus’ house with him.
Mbe bhejile bhengila munyumba eyo, atekilisishe munu undi okwingila nage, tali Petelo, Yowana na Yakobho, esemwene omwana na nyila mwene.
52 All the people [there] were crying and beating their chests [to show that they were sad]. But, [knowing that he would cause the girl to live again], he said to them, “Stop crying! She is not dead! She is [just] sleeping [MET]!”
Ao abhanu bhona bhaliga nibhalila kwo bhulaka, nawe naikati,”Musige okusekana, achali kufwa, nawe amamilela.”.
53 The people laughed at him, because they knew that [the girl] was dead.
Nawe nibhamuseka kwo kumugaya, okubha bhaliga bhamenyele ati afuye.
54 But [Jesus] took hold of her hand and called to her, saying, “Child, get up!”
Nawe omwene, namugwata omuyala okubhoko, nabhilikila kwo bhulaka, naika ati,”Mwana imuka”
55 At once her spirit returned [to her body] and she got up. Jesus immediately said, “Give her something to eat!”
Omwoyo gwae nigusubhamo, nemuka omwanya ogwo ogwo, Nabhalagilila ati, ayabhwe echinu cho kulya abhone okulya.
56 Her parents were amazed, but Jesus told them not to tell anyone [else yet] what had happened.
Abhebhusi bhae nibhalugula, nawe nabhabhwila bhasiga kubhwila munu kutyo jabha.
