Luke 8
1 Shortly afterwards, Jesus went on a journey through the towns and villages, proclaiming the Good News of the Kingdom of God. With him went the Twelve,
Iva pangahali kavaka zana Jesu hatanga kuyenda mumileneni ni mizi, kukutaza ni kuwamba makande malotu kuamana ni mubuso wa Ireza. Ba cita ikumi nibobele babakwina naye,
2 as well as some women who had been cured of wicked spirits and of infirmities. They were Mary, known as Mary of Magdala (from whom seven demons had been expelled),
hamwina ni banakazi vava honzi kwi huho imbilala ni matuku; Mariya yava kusumpwa Magadalena, kozo madimona akwana iyanza nitobele abazwiswa;
3 and Joanna (the wife of Herod’s steward, Chuza), and Susannah, and many others — all of whom ministered to Jesus and his Apostles out of their means.
Johana, mwihyabwe wa Chuza, Muyendisi wa Heroda; Susana, ni bamwi vangi vulyo, camazimo, kuya chezo zivavali kusaka.
4 Once, when a great crowd was collecting, and, when the people of town after town were flocking to Jesus, he spoke to them in the form of a parable:
Yaho chizi chikando chiva kwete kukopana hamwina, mi vantu vavali kukeza kwali kuzwa mwitoropo ni toropo, ca wamba inguli:
5 “The sower went out to sow his seed; and, as he was sowing, some of the seed fell along the path and was trodden upon; and the wild birds ate it up.
“Mulimi abayendi hanze kukavyala imbuto. Haba kubyala, zimwi ziba wili mumungwangwa mi ziba lyatwa hansi, ni zizuni ze wulu ziba mani kuzilya.
6 Other seed fell upon rock, and, as soon as it began to grow, having no moisture, withered away.
Zimwi ziba wili mumabwe, linu haci zikula, ciza nyana, kakuti sekazina mezi.
7 Other seed fell in the middle of brambles, but the brambles grew up with it and choked it entirely.
Mi zimwi ziva wili mukati ke miya, mi ciza kulilila hamwina ni ntanga ciza nyana ni kuzihwezola.
8 Other seed fell into rich soil, and grew, and gave a hundred-fold return.” After saying this, Jesus cried aloud: “Let him who has ears to hear with hear.”
Kono zimwi ziba wili mwibu lyindotu miciyaleta imbuto amana ikumi mane chovungi. “Jesu hachamana kuwamba izi zintu, chasumpa, “Yense wina matwi azuwa, mumusiye azuwe.”
9 His disciples asked Jesus the meaning of this parable.
Varutwana bakwe ciba mubuza intaluso ye nguli.
10 “To you,” he said, “the knowledge of the hidden truths of the Kingdom of God has been imparted, but to others in parables only, that ‘though they have eyes they may not see, and though they have ears, they may not understand.’
Cawamba, “Inzivo ye nkunutu za mubuso wa Ireza zibahewa kwenu, kono kubamwi ni wamba ce nguli, njokuta kuti kubona kanzi baboni, niku zuwa kanzi ba zuwisisi.
11 This is the parable — The seed is God’s Message.
Cwale iyi ngi ntaluso ye nguli: Imbuto linzwi lye Ireza.
12 By the seed which fell along the path are meant those who hear the Message; but then comes the Devil and carries away the Message from their minds, to prevent their believing it and being saved.
Ina iba wili mwinzila njabana babazuwi, kono dyabulusi wiza kuhinda linzwi mwinkulo zabo, njokuta kuti kanzi bazumini ni ku hazwa.
13 By the seed which fell upon the rock are meant those who, as soon as they hear the Message, welcome it joyfully; but they have no root, and believe it only for a time, and, when the time of temptation comes, they draw back.
Mi yo mumabwe njabana, bazuwa linzwi nikuli amuhela che ntabo. Kono kabena mihisi; bazumina kenako zana, mi mwi nako yokulikiwa bawa kuwililila.
14 By that which fell among the brambles are meant those who hear the Message, but who, as they go on their way, are completely choked by this world’s cares and wealth and pleasures, and bring nothing to perfection.
Imbuto ina iva wili mumiya bantu bazuwa linzwi, kono chi bayenda mwinzila zabo, banyanyiswa ke mpilayelo ni chifumi ni minyaka yo buhalo, mihe zihantu zavo kazi buzwi.
15 But by that in the good ground are meant those who, having heard the Message, keep it in the good, rich soil of their hearts, and patiently yield a return.
Kono imbuto ibawili mwibu i lotu, abo njabo, bazuwa kenkulo indotu, balikwata chokuli sileleza mi vavika zicherentu kenkulo inde niku kwatilira.
16 No man sets light to a lamp and then covers it with a bowl or puts it underneath a couch, but he puts it on a lamp-stand, so that anyone who comes in may see the light.
Linu, kakwina zumwi, yomunika ivoni, ni ku bwika hateni itungu kamba kui vika munsi yo bulalo. kono wibika ha mekalo evoni, ilikuti yense winjila abone seli,
17 Nothing is hidden which will not be brought into the light of day, not ever kept hidden which will not some day become known and come into the light of day.
Ka kakwina chiliwungwile cete nici kangwe kwizibeka, mi kakwina chiliwungwile chete ci kane kwizibahala nikwiza mwi seli.
18 Take care, then, how you listen. For, to all those who have, more will be given; while, from all those who have nothing, even what they seem to have will be taken away.”
Cwale mutekeleze hande, kozo yo wina, zingi kazihewe kwali, kono ya sena, nanga ca hupula kuba nacho kachihindwe kwali.
19 Presently Jesus’ mother and brothers came where he was, but they were not able to join him on account of the crowd.
Cwale banyina ni bance ve chikwame chiva keza kwali, kono kena babezi havumbali bwakwe kebaka lye chizi.
20 So word was brought to him — ‘Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.’
Avawambilwa, 'Vanyoko ni bance bako vechi kwame vazimene hanze, balindire kukubona,'
21 His reply, spoken to them all, was: “My mother and my brothers are those who listen to God’s teaching and do what it bids.”
Kono Jesu chavetava ni kuva cho, 'Bamama ni bance bangu vechikwame njabana bazuwa linzwi lya Ireza nikuli panga.”
22 One day about that time, Jesus got into a boat with his disciples and said to them: “Let us go across the lake.”
Linu izuba limwi abenjili muchisepe niba rutwana bakwe, mi chaco kubali, “tulutire kweyina imwi imbali yo lwinzi.” Chiva tanga kuzuha,
23 So they put off. While they were sailing, Jesus fell asleep. A squall swept down upon the lake, and their boat was filling and they were in danger.
Kono havava kuzuha chaya mwiñonzi. I huho ikando litiza libezi halwizi, mi chisepe chabo ciba kwingila menzi, mi vavena mu vukavu.
24 So the disciples came and roused him. “Sir, Sir,” they cried, “we are lost!” Jesus rose and rebuked the wind and the rushing waves, and they fell, and a calm followed.
Cwale barutwana ba Jesu' chiveza kwali kwiza kumubusa, ni vacho, Simwine! Simwine! chitufwa!” Chabuka niku kalimela luhuho nikubenga kwa menzi mi chikwamana, mi njikwiza ku ntontola.
25 “Where is your faith?” he exclaimed. But in great awe and amazement they said to one another: “Who can this be, that he commands even the winds and the waves, and they obey him?”
Cwale chawamba kubali, “Intumelo yenu inahi?” Mi vavali kutite, mwinako se ibatite baba kukomoketwe hape, hape chivatanga kuli buza, “zu cwale njeni, yoha intayelo ku menzi ni ku luhuho, imi zichilila?”
26 And they reached the country of the Gerasenes, which is on the opposite side to Galilee;
Chiba zuhila kuchi kiliti ca Gerasene, ina mwi shirwa lyo lwizi lwa Galileya,
27 and, on getting ashore, Jesus met a man, who had demons in him, coming out of the town. For a long time this man had worn no clothing, and he had not lived in a house, but in the tombs.
Jesu hakalyata herizo, a vakatanwa mukwame zumwi yaba kwina madimona. Ke nako inde kena aba kuzwete zizavalo, mi kena abakwikala mwizubo abakwikala kuma kumbu.
28 Catching sight of Jesus, he shrieked out and threw himself down before him, and in a loud voice exclaimed: “What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beseech you not to torment me.”
Havona Jesu, chatanga kulila niku wa hansi mi chawamba mumulumo mukando, “usaka kupanganzi name, Jesu, mwana Ireza wina kwiwulu? nikukumbira, kanji uninyandisi.”
29 For Jesus was commanding the foul spirit to come out from the man. On many occasions it had seized him, and, even when secured with chains and fetters, and watched, he would break through anything that bound him, and be driven by the demon into the Wilds.
Kaho Jesu ava layili luho lubilala kuzwa mwali. Kaho luba munyandisi kenako inde, nanga aba kusuminwa mahaka ni mihala nikuba mwintokomelo, ava kukosola mahaka niku yendiswa madimona mwinkanda.
30 “What is your name?” Jesus asked. “Legion,” he answered (for many demons had taken possession of him);
Cwale Jesu ca mubuza, “Jeweni inzinza lyako? “chawamba, njime Legiyoni,” kakuti madimona mangi ave njili mwali,
Chiya wondelela kumukumbila kuti kanji aya tumini mwintolongo. (Abyssos g12)
32 There was a drove of many pigs close by feeding upon the hill-side; and the demons begged Jesus to give them leave to enter into them. Jesus gave them leave.
Hanu mulaka mukanda we zugulube zibakwete kulya ku mbali ni chiwulu. Madimona chiya mukumbila kuti aye muzili, cha a zuminina.
33 They came out from the man and took possession of the pigs; and the drove rushed down the steep slope into the lake and were drowned.
Cwale madimona chi a zwa ku mukwame nikwi ngila muzigulube, mi mulaka chiwa shetumuka kuyenda mulwizi ni kuka mina.
34 When the men who tended them saw what had happened, they ran away, and carried the news to the town, and to the country round.
Avo vavakuyendisa zigulube habavona chapangahala, chivatiya ni kukawamba mwintolopo chapangahala ni mukanda.
35 The people went out to see what had happened, and, when they came to Jesus, they found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting, clothed and in his right mind, at Jesus’ feet; and they were awe-struck.
Cwale bantu chiba yenda kukabona chapangahala, Mi hachi veza kwa Jesu ni kwiza kuwana mukwame uzo kuvazwi madimona, wikele kumatende a Jesu, uzwete nikuba mwingana yakwe, mi vava tiyi
36 Those who had seen it told them how the possessed man had been delivered;
Cwale vana vavavoni chiva wambila vantu mukwame yava kunyandiswa madimona mwava hozwa.
37 upon which all the people in the neighbourhood of the Gerasenes asked Jesus to leave them, for they were terrified. Jesus got into a boat and returned.
Cwale vantu vonse ve ntolopo ya Gerasene chiva kumbila Jesu kuti azwe kubali, kakuti vava tiyite a hulu. Cwale chenjila mu chisepe nikubola.
38 The man from whom the demons had gone out begged Jesus to let him be with him; but Jesus sent him away.
Mukwame uzo madimona avazwi kwali chakumbila Jesu kuti ayende naye, kono Jesu chamukanina, cacho kwali,
39 “Go back to your home,” he said, “and relate the story of all that God has done for you.” So the man went through the whole town and proclaimed, as he went, all that Jesus had done for him.
Vole kwinzuvo yako ukawambe kecho Ireza wakupangila. Mukwame chayenda munzila yakwe nakaya buwamba chamupangila Jesu.
40 On his return, Jesus was welcomed by the people; for everyone was looking out for him.
Hanu Jesu ha kavola, chichava chicha muamuhela, kakuli vonse vavakumulindire.
41 And a man named Jaeirus, who was a President of the Synagogue, came to Jesus, and threw himself at Jesus’ feet, with entreaties that he would come to his house,
Mulole, mukwame yo supwa Jairasi, yabali zumwi wava yendisi wesinagoge, avakezi ni kwiza kuwila kumatende, a Jesu' ni ku mukumbila kuti ayende kwinzubo yakwe
42 because his only daughter, who was about twelve years old, was dying. As Jesus was going, the people were pressing closely round him.
kakuli mwanakwe womukazana yenke, wezilimo zekumi nizo bele, chava kufwa. Sina Jesu hava kwina mwinzila, chisi chicha kungana kumuzimbuka.
43 And a woman, who had suffered from haemorrhage for twelve years, and whom no one could cure,
Linu mukulwakazi kwavali kwina yava kulwala vutuku bwa malaha kezilimo zekumi, miava sinyehelwi masheleñi akwe kuvasiliki, kono kenavaholi kuvali.
44 came up behind and touched the tassel of his cloak. Instantly the haemorrhage ceased.
Chakeza kumasule a Jesu nikukwata kumangundero e zi zwato zakwe, yahaho kuzwiza kwakwe chikwa mana.
45 “Who was it that touched me?” Jesus asked; and, while everyone was denying having done so, Peter exclaimed: “Why, Sir, the people are crowding round you and pressing upon you!”
Jesu chawamba, “njeni zuna wani kwata?” Vonse haba sampula, Pitolosi chawamba, “Simwine, chisi ca vantu chikuzimbulukite,
46 “Somebody touched me,” said Jesus; “for I felt that power had gone out from me.”
kono Jesu chawamba, “zumwi wani kwata, kakuti nizi kuti ziho zazwa kwangu.
47 Then the woman, when she saw that she was discovered, came forward trembling, and threw herself down before him; and, in the presence of all the people, she told him her reason for touching him, and that she had been cured instantly.
Mukulwakazi habona kuti kasiwoli kuli wungula, cheza nakwete kuchachalika ni kuwila habusu bwakwe. cheza kuliwamba mukati kabantu chinzi cha mukwatira, ni mwavaholeri yahaho.
48 “Daughter,” he said, “your faith has delivered you. Go, and peace be with you.”
cho kwali mwanangu we chikazana, intumelo yako yakuhoza, Yende ce nkozo.”
49 Before he had finished speaking, some one came from the house of the President of the Synagogue and said: “Your daughter is dead! Do not trouble the Teacher further.”
Nasi kwete kuwamba, zumwi yava kukazwa kwinzuha yo muyendisi ya sinagoge, chawamba, “Mwanako we chikazana chafwa. Kanji ukatazi muruti ahulu.”
50 But Jesus, hearing this, spoke to the President: “Do not be afraid; only have faith, and she shall yet be delivered.”
Kono Jesu hazuwa izo, chetava Jairasi, “kanji utiyi; uzumine fela, mi kahole.”
51 When he reached the house, he did not allow any one to go in with him, except Peter, John, and James, and the child’s father and mother.
Hava kezi kwinzuvo, ka kwina yava zumini kwi njila mukati naye, haisi Pitolosi ni Johani ni Jakovo, ni banyina ni vesi bo muhwile.
52 And every one was weeping and mourning for her. “Do not weep,” Jesus said, “she is not dead; she is asleep.”
Linu vonse vavali kulila niku vokolola, kono chawamba, “kanji mulili; kafwile kono ulele fela.”
53 They began to laugh at him, for they knew that she was dead.
Kono chiba museka, chokwiziba kuti ufwile.
54 But, taking her by the hand, Jesus said in a loud voice: “Child, rise!”
Kono cha muhinda kwiyanza ni kusupa, kuwamba, muhwire vuke!”
55 The child’s spirit returned to her, and she instantly stood up; and Jesus ordered them to give her something to eat.
Luhuho lwakwe chilwa vola, mi chavuka yahaho. Chava laya kuti bamuhe chimwi chokulya.
56 Her parents were amazed, but Jesus impressed on them that they were not to tell any one what had happened.
Bashemi bakwe vava komokwa, kono chava laya kuti kanji bawambili muntu chapangahala.
