Luka 10
1 Thuutha wa ũguo Mwathani agĩthuura andũ angĩ mĩrongo mũgwanja na eerĩ, akĩmatũma eerĩ eerĩ, mathiĩ mbere yake matũũra-inĩ mothe na kũndũ kũrĩa we aakirie gũthiĩ.
After these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come.
2 Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Magetha nĩ maingĩ, no aruti a wĩra nĩ anini. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, thaithai Mwathani wa magetha atũme aruti wĩra mathiĩ magetha-inĩ make.
Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly [is] great, but the labourers [are] few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.
3 Thiĩi! Ndamũtũma ta tũgondu gatagatĩ-inĩ ka njũũi.
Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.
4 Mũtigakuue kĩbeti, kana mũhuko, o na kana iraatũ; na mũtikageithie mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ njĩra-inĩ.
Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute no man by the way.
5 “Nyũmba o yothe ĩrĩa mũrĩtoonyaga-rĩ, ambagai kuuga atĩrĩ, ‘Thayũ ũrogĩa nyũmba ĩno.’
And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace [be] to this house.
6 Na kũngĩkorwo nĩ kũrĩ mũndũ mwendi thayũ kuo, thayũ ũcio wanyu nĩũrĩikaraga nake; na kũngĩkorwo gũtirĩ, thayũ ũcio wanyu nĩ ũrĩmũcookagĩrĩra.
And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again.
7 Ikarai nyũmba ĩyo, mũrĩĩage na mũkanyua kĩrĩa gĩothe marĩmũheaga, nĩgũkorwo mũruti wĩra nĩagĩrĩirwo kũheagwo mũcaara wake. Mutikoimage nyũmba ĩmwe mũgathiĩ ĩrĩa ĩngĩ.
And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the labourer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.
8 “Mũngĩgatoonya itũũra mũnyiitwo ũgeni-rĩ, rĩĩagai o kĩrĩa mũngĩheo.
And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you:
9 Honagiai arĩa arũaru kuo, na mũmeerage atĩrĩ, ‘Ũthamaki wa Ngai nĩũmũkuhĩrĩirie.’
And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
10 No mũngĩgatoonya itũũra o rĩothe mwage kũnyiitwo ũgeni-rĩ, umagarai, mũthiĩ njĩra-inĩ ciarĩo muuge atĩrĩ,
But into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go your ways out into the streets of the same, and say,
11 ‘Nĩtwaribariba o na rũkũngũ rwa itũũra rĩanyu rũrĩa rwĩnyiitĩrĩire magũrũ maitũ, rũmũcookerere. No rĩrĩ, menyai wega ũũ: ũthamaki wa Ngai nĩũmũkuhĩrĩirie.’
Even the very dust of your city, which cleaveth on us, we do wipe off against you: notwithstanding be ye sure of this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
12 Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ, Sodomu nĩgũgakirĩrĩrio mũthenya ũcio gũkĩra itũũra rĩu.
But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.
13 “Inyuĩ andũ a Korazini, kaĩ mũrĩ na haaro-ĩ! O na inyuĩ andũ a Bethisaida, kaĩ mũrĩ na haaro-ĩ! Tondũ korwo ciama iria mwaringĩirwo nĩcio ciaringĩirwo andũ a Turo na Sidoni, mangĩeririre tene mehumbe nguo cia makũnia na mehurĩrie mũhu.
Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon, which have been done in you, they had a great while ago repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
14 No andũ a Turo na Sidoni nĩmagakorwo marĩ murũ mũthenya ũcio wa ciira gũkĩra inyuĩ.
But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment, than for you.
15 Na inyuĩ, andũ a Kaperinaumu, mũũĩ atĩ nĩmũgatũũgĩrio nginya matu-inĩ? Aca, mũkaaharũrũkio mũkinye kũrĩa kũriku mũno. (Hadēs g86)
And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to hell. (Hadēs g86)
16 “Mũndũ ũrĩa ũmũthikagĩrĩria inyuĩ nĩ niĩ athikagĩrĩria, na ũrĩa ũmũregaga nĩ niĩ aregaga, na ũrĩa ũrĩndegaga nĩ ũrĩa wandũmire arĩĩregaga.”
He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth you despiseth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me.
17 Nao andũ acio mĩrongo mũgwanja na eerĩ magĩcooka makenete, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, o na ndaimono nĩiratwathĩkagĩra thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩaku.”
And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.
18 Nake akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩndĩronire Shaitani akĩgũa kuuma igũrũ ta rũheni.
And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
19 Inyuĩ nĩndĩmũheete ũhoti wa kũrangĩrĩria nyoka na tũngʼaurũ, na wa gũtooria hinya wothe wa thũ; gũtirĩ kĩndũ gĩkamwĩka ũũru.
Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
20 No rĩrĩ, mũtigakene tondũ ngoma nĩimwathĩkagĩra, no kenagai tondũ marĩĩtwa manyu nĩmandĩkĩtwo kũũrĩa Igũrũ.”
Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
21 Na ihinda o rĩu, Jesũ akĩiyũrwo nĩ gĩkeno kĩa Roho Mũtheru, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Baba, wee Mwathani wa igũrũ na thĩ, nĩngũkũgaatha tondũ nĩũhithĩte andũ arĩa oogĩ na marĩ na ũmenyo maũndũ maya, no ũkamaguũrĩria tũkenge. Baba, wĩkĩte ũguo tondũ nĩguo wendi waku.
In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.
22 “Nĩnengeretwo maũndũ mothe nĩ Baba. Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũũĩ Mũriũ nũũ, tiga Ithe witũ, na gũtirĩ mũndũ ũũĩ Ithe witũ nũũ o tiga Mũriũ na arĩa othe Mũriũ endaga kũguũrĩria.”
All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and [he] to whom the Son will reveal [him.]
23 Agĩcooka akĩhũgũkĩra arutwo ake, akĩmeera marĩ oiki atĩrĩ, “Kũrathimwo nĩ maitho marĩa marona kĩrĩa mũrona.
And he turned him unto [his] disciples, and said privately, Blessed [are] the eyes which see the things that ye see:
24 Nĩgũkorwo ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ, anabii aingĩ na athamaki nĩmerirĩirie kuona maũndũ marĩa mũrona, no matiamonire na nĩmerirĩire kũigua maũndũ marĩa mũraigua, no matiamaiguire.”
For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen [them]; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard [them.]
25 Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ĩmwe mũrutani ũmwe wa watho nĩarũgamire nĩguo agerie Jesũ, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mũrutani, njagĩrĩirwo nĩ gwĩka atĩa nĩguo ngaagaya muoyo wa tene na tene?” (aiōnios g166)
And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
26 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Kwandĩkĩtwo atĩa Watho-inĩ? Wee-rĩ, kaĩ ũthomaga atĩa?”
He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?
27 Mũndũ ũcio akĩmũcookeria, akiuga atĩrĩ, “‘Endaga Mwathani Ngai waku na ngoro yaku yothe, na muoyo waku wothe, na hinya waku wothe, o na meciiria maku mothe’; na ‘Endaga mũndũ wa itũũra rĩanyu o ta ũrĩa wĩyendete wee mwene.’”
And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.
28 Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ wacookia wega; ĩkaga ũguo, na nĩũgatũũra muoyo.”
And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.
29 No mũndũ ũcio nĩeendaga gwĩtua mwega, nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩũria Jesũ atĩrĩ, “Nake mũndũ wa itũũra nũũ?”
But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?
30 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kwarĩ na mũndũ ũmwe waikũrũkaga oimĩte Jerusalemu arorete Jeriko, na akĩnyiitwo nĩ atunyani. Nao makĩmũruta nguo, makĩmũhũũra, magĩcooka magĩthiĩ, makĩmũtiga arĩ hakuhĩ gũkua.
And Jesus answering said, A certain [ man] went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded [him], and departed, leaving [him] half dead.
31 Mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũmwe nĩagereire njĩra ĩyo, na rĩrĩa onire mũndũ ũcio, akĩhĩtũkĩra mũkĩra-inĩ ũrĩa ũngĩ wa njĩra.
And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
32 Ũguo noguo Mũlawii eekire, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aakinyire hau, o nake, amuona akĩhĩtũkĩra mũkĩra ũũrĩa ũngĩ wa njĩra.
And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked [on him], and passed by on the other side.
33 No rĩrĩ, Mũsamaria ũmwe warĩ rũgendo-inĩ nĩakinyire harĩa mũndũ ũcio aarĩ, amuona akĩmũiguĩra tha.
But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion [on him],
34 Agĩthiĩ harĩ we, akĩmuoha ironda, na akĩmũitĩrĩria maguta na ndibei. Agĩcooka akĩmuoya, akĩmũhaicia igũrũ rĩa ndigiri yake, akĩmũtwara nyũmba ya ageni, akĩmũmenyerera.
And went to [him], and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
35 Kwarooka gũkĩa Mũsamaria ũcio akĩruta dinari igĩrĩ, agĩcinengera mwene nyũmba ĩyo ya ageni, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Mũmenyagĩrĩre, na ndacooka nĩngagũcookeria kĩrĩa kĩngĩ ũgaakorwo ũhũthĩrĩte.’
And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave [them] to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.
36 “Ũgwĩciiria nĩ mũndũ ũrĩkũ wa acio atatũ watuĩkire mũndũ wa itũũra harĩ mũndũ ũcio wanyiitĩtwo nĩ atunyani?”
Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves?
37 Nake mũrutani ũcio wa watho akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũrĩa wamũiguĩrĩire tha.” Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ ũgeeke o ta ũguo.”
And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said Jesus unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.
38 Na rĩrĩ, Jesũ na arutwo ake marĩ njĩra-inĩ magĩthiĩ, nĩatoonyire gatũũra kamwe kũrĩa aanyiitirwo ũgeni mũciĩ kwa mũtumia wetagwo Maritha.
Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.
39 Maritha aarĩ na mwarĩ wa nyina wetagwo Mariamu, nake aikarĩte magũrũ-inĩ ma Mwathani athikĩrĩirie ũrĩa oigaga.
And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word.
40 Nowe Maritha nĩarĩ na mĩhangʼo nĩ ũndũ wa maũndũ marĩa mothe magĩrĩire kũhaarĩrio. Agĩũka harĩ Jesũ, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, kaĩ ũtarona ũrĩa mwarĩ wa maitũ andekereirie wĩra? Mwĩre oke andeithie!”
But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.
41 Nake Mwathani akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Maritha, Maritha, nĩũtangĩkĩte, na ũgethĩĩnia na maũndũ maingĩ,
And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:
42 no nĩ harĩ ũndũ ũmwe tu ũbataranĩtie. Mariamu nĩethuurĩire ũndũ ũrĩa mwega makĩria, naguo ũndũ ũcio ndangĩtunywo.”
But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
