Luke 9
1 He called the twelve together and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases.
Yesu wukutikisa kumi mimvuala miodi ayi wuba vana lulendo ayi luyalu lu totudila ziphevi zioso zimbimbi ayi lubelusila bambevo.
2 He sent them out to proclaim God’s Kingdom and to heal the sick.
Bosi wuba tuma benda yamikisa luyalu lu Nzambi ayi wuba tuma babelusa bambevo.
3 He said to them, “Take nothing for your journey—no staffs, nor wallet, nor bread, nor money. Don’t have two tunics each.
Wuba vana zithumunu ziazi: —Kadi nata kadi kiasa mu nzila: kadi nata nkawa, kadi tsaku, kadi khuta, kadi zimbongo. Kadi mutu kanata kikhutu kiviakisa.
4 Into whatever house you enter, stay there, and depart from there.
Yoso nzo luela kota buna luvuanda muna nate luela botuka va divula beni.
5 As many as don’t receive you, when you depart from that city, shake off even the dust from your feet for a testimony against them.”
Enati bamengi kulutambula buna mu thangu luela totuka mu divula beni, buna luba kukumuna mbungi-mbungi yi malu meno muingi kiba kimbangi kuidi bawu.
6 They departed and went throughout the villages, proclaiming the Good News and healing everywhere.
Buna miyenda. Midiengila mu mala moso. Milonga nsamu Wumbote ayi mibelusa bambevo mu bibuangu bioso.
7 Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by him; and he was very perplexed, because it was said by some that Yochanan had risen from the dead,
Nyadi Elode wawu zitsangu zi mambu mamo mavioka, wukiyamisangolo. Bila bankaka batuba: “Yowani niandi wufulukidi mu bafua!”
8 and by some that Elijah had appeared, and by others that one of the old prophets had risen again.
Vayi bankaka: “Eli niandi wumonikini.” Vayi bankaka “Niandi widi mbikudi wumosi mu mimbikudi mikhulu, niandi fulukidi.”
9 Herod said, “I beheaded Yochanan, but who is this about whom I hear such things?” He sought to see him.
Vayi Elode wuba tuba: —Keti minu veka ndizengisa Yowani ntu! Vayi buna nani mutuwowo, ndilembu wilanga mambu momo? Buna wutomba nzila mu kummona.
10 The emissaries, when they had returned, told him what things they had done. He took them and withdrew apart to a desert region of a city called Bethsaida.
Mimvuala mivutuka ayi mivumbudila Yesu kipholo ki mamo mivanga; wuba nata va lutengo ku ndambu divula dibeti tedila Betisayida.
11 But the multitudes, perceiving it, followed him. He welcomed them, spoke to them of God’s Kingdom, and he cured those who needed healing.
Vayi nkangu wu batu bu bazaba nsamu beni, buna banlandakana. Yesu wuba yakula, wuba yolukila nsamu wu kipfumu ki Nzambi ayi wu belusa batu baba tsatu yi belusu.
12 The day began to wear away; and the twelve came and said to him, “Send the multitude away, that they may go into the surrounding villages and farms and lodge and get food, for we are here in a deserted place.”
Buisi buna bueka yila, kumi mimvuala miodi va kaba ayi minkamba: —Vutula nkangu wu batu muingi benda mu mala ayi mu zitsola zifikimini mu diambu babaka bidia ayi minleku bila va buangu kikambulu batu tuidi.
13 But he said to them, “You give them something to eat.” They said, “We have no more than five loaves and two fish, unless we should go and buy food for all these people.”
Vayi Yesu wuba kamba: —Luba vananu beno veka bidia. Vayi bawu bavutula: —Mampa matanu kaka madi yeto ayi zimbizi zizole zi nlangu. Mananga tidi beto veka tuenda sumbi bidia mu diambu di batu boso baba e?
14 For they were about five thousand men. He said to his disciples, “Make them sit down in groups of about fifty each.”
Bila nduka-nduka mili tanu yi babakala yiba vana. Yesu wukamba minlonguki miandi: —Luba vuandisa mu makabu ma makumatanu ma batu.
15 They did so, and made them all sit down.
Buawu mivanga ayi mivuandisa batu boso.
16 He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to the sky, he blessed them, broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the multitude.
Buna Yesu wubonga mampa beni matanu ayi zimbizi beni zizole zi nlangu. Wumvumbula meso ku Yilu, wusakumuna mawu bosi wubukuna mawuayi wuvana mawu minlonguki miandi mu diambu bakabudila nkangu wu batu.
17 They ate and were all filled. They gathered up twelve baskets of broken pieces that were left over.
Bawu boso badia ayi bayukuta. Mu bitini bisiadidila, batota kumi bipani biodi.
18 As he was praying alone, the disciples were near him, and he asked them, “Who do the multitudes say that I am?”
Lumbu kimosi Yesu kaba sambila va lutengu, minlonguki miandi miba yandi va kimosi. Buna wuba yuvula: —Buevi batu beti tubanga; minu ndidi nani e?
19 They answered, “‘Yochanan the Immerser,’ but others say, ‘Elijah,’ and others, that one of the old prophets has risen again.”
Minlonguki mimvutudila: —Bankaka beta tuba widi Yowani Mbotikii; bankaka Eli; bankakabeta tuba widi wumosi mu mimbikudi mi tsi khulu wufulukidi.
20 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered, “The Messiah of God.”
Buna wuba yuvula: —Vayi benu veka, lueta tuba ti minu ndidi nani e? Buna Piela wumvutudila: —Ngeyo widi Klisto, wu Nzambi.
21 But he warned them and commanded them to tell this to no one,
Buna Yesu wuba kamba: —Lubika kamba mambu mama kadi kuidi mutu wumosi.
22 saying, “The Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.”
Buna wubuela diaka: —Muana Mutu kafueti mona ziphasi ziwombo ayi bakulutu ba batu, bapfumu zi zinganga ayi minlongi mi mina miela kunloza. Wela vondu vayi wela fuluka mu lumbu kintatu.
23 He said to all, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.
Buna wukamba batu boso ti: —Enati mutu tidi kundandakana buna kafueti kukizimbakana niandi veka vayi kabonga dikulusi diandi kadika lumbu ayi kandandakana.
24 For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever will lose his life for my sake will save it.
Bila woso tidi keba luzingu luandi wela luzimbisa vayi wosowela luzimbisa mu diambu diama, buna wela luvukisa.
25 For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses or forfeits his own self?
Enati mutu beki ntoto wumvimba vayi wukizimbisidi voti wukibivisidiniandi veka, buna ndandu mbi kambaka e?
26 For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of Man be ashamed when he comes in his glory, and the glory of the Father, and of the holy angels.
Enati mutu wumfuididi tsoni voti fuidi tsoni mu diambu di mambu mama, buna Muana mutu wela kumfuila tsoni bu kela kuizila mu nkembuꞌandi, mu nkembo wu Tata ayi wu zimbasi zinlongo.
27 But I tell you the truth: There are some of those who stand here who will in no way taste of death until they see God’s Kingdom.”
Bukiedika ndikulukamba ti batu bankaka badi vava balendi ba fuako nate bela mona kipfumu ki Nzambi.
28 About eight days after these sayings, he took with him Peter, Yochanan, and Jacob, and went up onto the mountain to pray.
Dinana di bilumbu bu bivioka, landila mambu momo, Yesu wubonga Piela, Yowani ayi Zaki ayi wuyenda ku mbata mongo mu kuenda sambila.
29 As he was praying, the appearance of his face was altered, and his clothing became white and dazzling.
Mu thangu kaba sambila, zizi kiandi kikituka, minledi miandimieka miphembi dio lio, milezama banga lusiemo.
30 Behold, two men were talking with him, who were Moses and Elijah,
Batu buadi baba solula yandi: Moyize ayi Eli.
31 who appeared in glory and spoke of his departure, which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.
Mu bawu mu monika nkembo. Bayolukila lufua lolo kela dukisa ku Yelusalemi.
32 Now Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep, but when they were fully awake, they saw his glory, and the two men who stood with him.
Piela ayi bakundi bandi buadi baba baleka. Mu thandu bakotuka, bamona nkembo wu Yesu ayi bamona batu beni baba buadi baba yandi.
33 As they were parting from him, Peter said to Yeshua, “Master, it is good for us to be here. Let’s make three tents: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah,” not knowing what he said.
Mu thangu batu beni baba nduka vambana ayi Yesu, Piela wunkamba: —Pfumu, bulutidi mboti tukala kuetu vava. Tueka tunga zinzozitatu zikapu: yimosi mu diambu diaku, yimosi mu diambu di Moyize, yimosi mu diambu di Eli. Vayi kasia zaba ko mambu momo katuba.
34 While he said these things, a cloud came and overshadowed them, and they were afraid as they entered into the cloud.
Buna wukidi tubi, dituti dimosi diyiza ayi diba fukidila. Buna minlonguki mimona tsisi mu thangu mikota mu dituti.
35 A voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is my beloved Son. Listen to him!”
Buna mbembo yitotuka mu dituti beni yiwakana: —Niandu niandi Muanꞌama wundisobula, lunwila!
36 When the voice came, Yeshua was found alone. They were silent, and told no one in those days any of the things which they had seen.
Mbembo yoyo bu yiwakana, Yesu niandi veka wusiala. Vayi bawu baba dio sui; Mu bilumbu bina basia yolukila ko kadi kuidi mutu wumosi mambu momo bamona.
37 On the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, a great multitude met him.
Mu lumbu kilanda bu baba kuluka mongo, nkangu wu batu wuyiza dengana Yesu.
38 Behold, a man from the crowd called out, saying, “Rabbi, I beg you to look at my son, for he is my only born child.
Muna nkangu beni mutotukila mutu wumosi wuyamikina: —A Nlongi, ndikuleba, tala muanꞌama wubakala. Wawu kaka muana widi yama.
39 Behold, a spirit takes him, he suddenly cries out, and it convulses him so that he foams; and it hardly departs from him, bruising him severely.
Mpeve yawu kumbuila, buna muana wunyamikinanga. Mpeve beni yinkuntutumunanga, yikuntotulanga difulu ayi bu yimeni kumvongisa bunabosi yinkumbikanga.
40 I begged your disciples to cast it out, and they couldn’t.”
Ndebidingi minlonguki miaku muingi miyitotula vayi misi nunganga ko.
41 Yeshua answered, “Faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here.”
Buna Yesu wuvutula: —Tsungi yikambulu minu ayi yimbimbi! Zithangu zikua ndielakadilanga yeno diaka va kimosi? Zithangu zikua ndiela buela kangilanga ntima mu bila kieno e? Buna wukamba mutu beni ti: —Tuala muanꞌaku vava!
42 While he was still coming, the demon threw him down and convulsed him violently. But Yeshua rebuked the unclean spirit, healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.
Mu thangu muana kaba fikama, mpeve yimbimbi yinlumba va ntotoayi yitona kuntutumuna ngolo. Buna Yesu wutemina mu kingolo mpeveyimbimbi. Buna wubelusa muana wubakala ayi wutambika wawu kuidi Siandi.
43 They were all astonished at the majesty of God. But while all were marvelling at all the things which Yeshua did, he said to his disciples,
Babo basimina mu diambu di bunneni bu Nzambi. Buna babo bakidi simina mu diambu di mambu moso momo Yesu kaba vanganga, buna wukamba minlonguki miandi:
44 “Let these words sink into your ears, for the Son of Man will be delivered up into the hands of men.”
—Lulunda bumbote mama luwilu bila Muana Mutu weka yekulu mu mioko mi batu.
45 But they didn’t understand this saying. It was concealed from them, that they should not perceive it, and they were afraid to ask him about this saying.
Vayi minlonguki misia sudika ko mambu momo. Baba suekila tsundu yi mambu beni mu diambu mibika sudika. Ayi mimona tsisi mu yuvula tsunduyi mambu momo.
46 An argument arose amongst them about which of them was the greatest.
Ziphaka zitotuka mu bawu na bawu mu diambu di zaba nani lutidi munneni.
47 Yeshua, perceiving the reasoning of their hearts, took a little child, and set him by his side,
Yesu bu kazaba mayindu mawu ma mintima miawu, wubonga muanalezi, wuntedimisa va ndambu andi
48 and said to them, “Whoever receives this little child in my name receives me. Whoever receives me receives him who sent me. For whoever is least amongst you all, this one will be great.”
ayi wuba kamba: —Woso mutu wunyakula muana wawu mu dizina diama buna minu kuandi kayakudi. Ayi woso wundiakudi buna yakudi diaka mutu wowo wuntuma. Bila woso lutidi keva mu beno, buna niandi lutidi munneni.
49 Yochanan answered, “Master, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we forbade him, because he doesn’t follow with us.”
Buna Yowani wunkamba: —A nlongi, tumueningi mutu wumosi wulembu totulanga ziphevizimbimbi mu dizina diaku. Vayi tunkandikidingi bila kadiatanga yetu va kimosi ko.
50 Yeshua said to him, “Don’t forbid him, for he who is not against us is for us.”
Vayi Yesu wumvutudila ti: —Lubika kunkandika bila woso kambulu bumbeni kudi beno buna ku ndambu eno kadi.
51 It came to pass, when the days were near that he should be taken up, he intently set his face to go to Jerusalem
Thangu yoyi Yesu kafueti kuendila ku diyilu bu yifuana, bunawubaka lukanu lu kuenda ku Yelusalemi.
52 and sent messengers before his face. They went and entered into a village of the Samaritans, so as to prepare for him.
Wufidisa mimvuala ku ntualꞌandi. Buna miyenda mikota mu buala bumosi bu Samali mu diambu minkubikila nleko.
53 They didn’t receive him, because he was travelling with his face set towards Jerusalem.
Vayi basi Samali bamanga ku ntambula bila ku Yelusalemi kaba kuenda.
54 When his disciples, Jacob and Yochanan, saw this, they said, “Lord, do you want us to command fire to come down from the sky and destroy them, just as Elijah did?”
Minlonguki miandi, Zaki ayi Yowani, bu mimona bobo, mituba: —Pfumu, tidi tutumina mbazu, yintotukila ku diyilu, yibuila batu baba muingi yiba yoka?
55 But he turned and rebuked them, “You don’t know of what kind of spirit you are.
Vayi Yesu wubaluka ayi wuba temina.
56 For the Son of Man didn’t come to destroy men’s lives, but to save them.” They went to another village.
Buna bayenda ku buala bunkaka.
57 As they went on the way, a certain man said to him, “I want to follow you wherever you go, Lord.”
Buna bakidi mu nzila mutu wumosi wuyiza kamba Yesu: —Nlongi thidi kulandakana koso ku wunkuenda.
58 Yeshua said to him, “The foxes have holes and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head.”
Yesu wumvutudila: —Mimbaku midi ayi minsuku miawu momo mieta leka ayi zinuni zidiayi zindiala ziawu vayi muana mutu kasi ko buangu kivundisila ntu andi.
59 He said to another, “Follow me!” But he said, “Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father.”
Yesu wukamba kuidi wunkaka: —Ngeyo ndandakana. Vayi mutu beni wumvutudila: —A Pfumu, phani minsua ndienda tuami ziki siama.
60 But Yeshua said to him, “Leave the dead to bury their own dead, but you go and announce God’s Kingdom.”
Buna Yesu wunkamba: —Bika bazika batu bawu bafua vayi ngeyo yenda samuna Kipfumu ki Nzambi.
61 Another also said, “I want to follow you, Lord, but first allow me to say good-bye to those who are at my house.”
Wunkaka diaka wunkamba: —A Pfumu, ndiela kulandakana vayi bika theti ndienda vanimboti zitsuka kuidi dikanda diama.
62 But Yeshua said to him, “No one, having put his hand to the plough and looking back, is fit for God’s Kingdom.”
Vayi Yesu wumvutudila: —Mutu wowo simbidi tsengu mu sala mu tsola vayi tedi ku manima, kasi fuana ko mu diambu di Kipfumu ki Nzambi.
