< Luka 4 >

1 Nake Jesũ akiuma kũu Jorodani aiyũrĩtwo nĩ Roho Mũtheru, agĩtwarwo nĩ Roho werũ-inĩ,
Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness
2 kũrĩa aagereirio nĩ mũcukani matukũ mĩrongo ĩna. Ndaarĩĩaga kĩndũ matukũ-inĩ macio, namo maathira agĩkorwo arĩ mũhũũtu.
for forty days, being tempted by the devil. He ate nothing in those days. When they were completed, he was hungry.
3 Nake mũcukani akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo wee nĩwe Mũrũ wa Ngai, ĩra ihiga rĩrĩ rĩtuĩke mũgate.”
The devil said to him, "If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread."
4 Nake Jesũ akĩmĩcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: ‘To mũgate wiki ũngĩtũũria mũndũ muoyo.’”
Jesus answered him, saying, "It is written, 'Humankind cannot live by bread alone.'"
5 Ningĩ mũcukani akĩmũtwara handũ hatũũgĩru mũno, na gwa kahinda kanini mũno akĩmuonia mothamaki mothe ma gũkũ thĩ.
And leading him up to a high mountain, the devil showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.
6 Agĩcooka akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩngũkũhe wathani wa kũu guothe na riiri wakuo wothe, nĩgũkorwo nĩiheanĩtwo kũrĩ niĩ, na no ndĩciheane kũrĩ mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa ingĩenda kũhe.
The devil said to him, "I will give you all this authority, and their glory, for it has been delivered to me; and I give it to whomever I want.
7 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ũngĩnyinamĩrĩra ũhooe, mothe megũtuĩka maku.”
If you therefore will worship before me, it will all be yours."
8 Jesũ akĩmũcookeria, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: ‘Hooyaga Mwathani Ngai waku na ũmũtungatagĩre o we wiki.’”
Jesus answered and said to him, "It is written, 'You are to worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.'"
9 Nake mũcukani akĩmũtwara Jerusalemu, na akĩmũrũgamia gathũrũmũndũ-inĩ ka hekarũ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo wee nĩwe Mũrũ wa Ngai, wĩgũithie thĩ kuuma haha.
He led him to Jerusalem, and set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, cast yourself down from here,
10 Nĩgũkorwo nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “‘Nĩagaatha araika ake nĩ ũndũ waku makũmenyerere wega;
for it is written, 'He will put his angels in charge of you, to guard you;'
11 ningĩ nĩmagakwanĩrĩria na moko mao, nĩgeetha ndũkaringwo kũgũrũ nĩ ihiga.’”
and, 'On their hands they will bear you up, lest perhaps you dash your foot against a stone.'"
12 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Maandĩko moigĩte atĩrĩ: ‘Ndũkanagerie Mwathani Ngai waku.’”
And Jesus, answering, said to him, "It is said, 'Do not test the Lord, your God.'"
13 Rĩrĩa mũcukani aarĩkirie kũmũgeria na njĩra ciothe-rĩ, akĩmũtiga nginya ihinda rĩrĩa rĩagĩrĩire rĩkoneka.
When the devil had completed every temptation, he departed from him until another time.
14 Nake Jesũ agĩcooka Galili arĩ na hinya wa Roho, nayo ngumo yake ĩkĩhunja kũu bũrũri ũcio wothe.
Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee, and news about him spread through all the surrounding area.
15 Nake nĩarutanaga thunagogi-inĩ ciao, nao andũ othe makĩmũkumia.
He taught in their synagogues, being praised by all.
16 Na rĩrĩ, nĩathiire Nazarethi, kũrĩa aarereirwo, na agĩtoonya thunagogi mũthenya wa Thabatũ, o ta ũrĩa aamenyerete gwĩka. Nake akĩrũgama na igũrũ athome Maandĩko.
He came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up. He entered, as was his custom, into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read.
17 Akĩnengerwo ibuku rĩa gĩkũnjo rĩa mũnabii Isaia. Akĩrĩkũnjũra, akĩona harĩa handĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ:
The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him, and unrolling the scroll, he found the place where it was written,
18 “Roho wa Mwathani arĩ igũrũ rĩakwa, nĩ ũndũ nĩanjitĩrĩirie maguta nĩguo hunjagĩrie arĩa athĩĩni Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega. Nĩandũmĩte thiĩ nyanĩrĩre kuohorwo kwa arĩa moheetwo, na atĩ arĩa atumumu nĩmegũcooka kuona, na njohorithie arĩa mahinyĩrĩirio,
"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, recovering of sight to the blind, to deliver those who are crushed,
19 ningĩ nyanĩrĩre mwaka wa gwĩtĩkĩrĩka wa Mwathani.”
and to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord."
20 Agĩcooka agĩkũnja ibuku rĩu rĩa gĩkũnjo, agĩcookeria mũmenyereri wa thunagogi, agĩikara thĩ. Nao andũ arĩa othe maarĩ thunagogi makĩmũrora.
He closed the scroll, gave it back to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of all in the synagogue were fastened on him.
21 Nake akĩambĩrĩria kwaria, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ũmũthĩ maandĩko maya nĩ mahingio mũkĩĩiguagĩra.”
He began to tell them, "Today, this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing."
22 Nao andũ othe makĩmũgaatha na makĩgegio mũno nĩ ciugo njega iria cioimaga kanua gake. Makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Githĩ ũyũ ti mũrũ wa Jusufu?”
All testified about him, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth, and they said, "Is not this Joseph's son?"
23 Nake Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ nĩ mũkũnjĩĩra thimo ĩrĩa yugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Ndagĩtarĩ, wĩĩhonie wee mwene! Maũndũ marĩa tũiguĩte atĩ nĩ wekire kũu Kaperinaumu meeke gũkũ itũũra-inĩ rĩaku.’”
He said to them, "Doubtless you will tell me this parable, 'Physician, heal yourself. Whatever we have heard done at Capernaum, do also here in your hometown.'"
24 Agĩthiĩ na mbere kuuga atĩrĩ, “Ngũmwĩra na ma, gũtirĩ mũnabii wĩtĩkagĩrwo itũũra-inĩ rĩake.
He said, "Truly I tell you, no prophet is acceptable in his hometown.
25 Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, nĩ kwarĩ atumia aingĩ a ndigwa Isiraeli matukũ-inĩ ma Elija, rĩrĩa igũrũ rĩarĩ ihinge mĩaka ĩtatũ na nuthu, na ngʼaragu nene ĩkĩiyũra bũrũri wothe.
But truly I tell you, there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the sky was shut up three years and six months, when a great famine came over all the land.
26 No Elija ndaigana gũtũmwo kũrĩ o na ũmwe wao, tiga kũrĩ mũtumia wa ndigwa ũrĩa watũire itũũra rĩa Zarefathu kũu bũrũri wa Sidoni.
Elijah was sent to none of them, except to Zarephath, in the land of Sidon, to a woman who was a widow.
27 Ningĩ nĩ kwarĩ andũ aingĩ maarĩ na mangũ thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli ihinda rĩa Elisha ũrĩa mũnabii, no gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe wao wahonirio tiga Naamani ũrĩa Mũsuriata.”
There were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet, yet not one of them was cleansed, except Naaman, the Syrian."
28 Andũ othe arĩa maarĩ thĩinĩ wa thunagogi nĩmarakarire mũno rĩrĩa maiguire ũguo.
They were all filled with wrath in the synagogue, as they heard these things.
29 Magĩũkĩra makĩmũrutũrũra kuuma itũũra-inĩ rĩu, makĩmũtwara rwere-inĩ rwa karĩma harĩa itũũra rĩu rĩakĩtwo, nĩguo mamũikie na kũu kĩharũrũka-inĩ.
They rose up, threw him out of the city, and led him to the brow of the hill that their city was built on, that they might throw him off the cliff.
30 Nowe Jesũ akĩgerera gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ, agĩĩthiĩra.
But he, passing through the midst of them, went his way.
31 Agĩcooka agĩikũrũka, agĩthiĩ Kaperinaumu, itũũra rĩarĩ Galili, na mũthenya wa Thabatũ akĩambĩrĩria kũruta andũ.
He came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee. He was teaching them on the Sabbath day,
32 Nao andũ makĩgega nĩ ũndũ wa ũrutani wake, tondũ ndũmĩrĩri yake yarĩ ya wathani.
and they were astonished at his teaching, for his word was with authority.
33 Na rĩrĩ, kũu thĩinĩ wa thunagogi nĩ kwarĩ na mũndũ warĩ na ndaimono, nĩyo ngoma thũku. Nake akĩanĩrĩra na mũgambo mũnene, akiuga atĩrĩ,
In the synagogue there was a man who had a spirit of an unclean demon, and he shouted with a loud voice,
34 “Hĩ! Ũrenda atĩa na ithuĩ, wee Jesũ wa Nazarethi? Ũũkĩte gũtũniina? Nĩngũũĩ, we nĩwe ũrĩa Mũtheru wa Ngai!”
saying, "Ah. What have we to do with you, Jesus, Nazarene? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are — the Holy One of God."
35 Nake Jesũ akĩmĩkũma, akĩmĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Kira, na uume thĩinĩ wake!” Nayo ndaimono ĩyo ĩkĩgũithia mũndũ ũcio thĩ hau mbere yao othe, ĩkiuma na ndĩamũtihirie.
Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be silent, and come out of him." When the demon had thrown him down in their midst, he came out of him, having done him no harm.
36 Nao andũ othe makĩgega makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ ũrutani ũyũ ũhaana atĩa? Araatha ngoma thũku arĩ na wathani na hinya, nacio ikoima!”
Amazement came on all, and they spoke together, one with another, saying, "What is this word? For with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out."
37 Nayo ngumo yake ĩkĩhunja kũrĩa guothe kwariganĩtie na kũu.
News about him went out into every place of the surrounding region.
38 Nake Jesũ akiuma thunagogi, agĩthiĩ mũciĩ gwa Simoni. Na rĩrĩ, nyina wa mũtumia wa Simoni aarĩ mũrũaru mũrimũ wa kũhiũha mwĩrĩ mũno, nao magĩthaitha Jesũ nĩ ũndũ wake.
He rose up from the synagogue, and entered into Simon's house. Now Simon's mother-in-law was suffering from a high fever, and they appealed to him about her.
39 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, akĩinamĩrĩra harĩ we, na agĩatha mũrimũ ũcio uume mwĩrĩ wake, naguo ũkiuma. Nake mũtumia ũcio agĩũkĩra o rĩmwe na akĩambĩrĩria kũmatungatĩra.
He stood over her, and rebuked the fever; and it left her. Immediately she rose up and served them.
40 Na rĩrĩa riũa rĩathũaga, andũ makĩrehera Jesũ andũ arĩa othe maarĩ na mĩrimũ ngũrani, nake akĩmaigĩrĩra moko o mũndũ o mũndũ, akĩmahonia.
When the sun was setting, all those who had any sick with various diseases brought them to him; and he laid his hands on every one of them, and healed them.
41 O na ningĩ ndaimono ikiuma andũ aingĩ, ikĩanagĩrĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwe Mũrũ wa Ngai!” Nowe agĩcikaania na agĩcigiria ciarie, tondũ nĩcioĩ atĩ nĩwe Kristũ.
Demons also came out from many, crying out, and saying, "You are the Son of God." But he rebuked them and did not allow them to speak, because they knew that he was the Christ.
42 Na gwakĩa-rĩ, Jesũ akiumagara agĩthiĩ kũndũ gũtaarĩ andũ. Nao andũ makĩmũcaria, na rĩrĩa maakinyire harĩa aarĩ, makĩgeria kũmũgirĩrĩria ndakoime kũu amatige.
When it was day, he departed and went into an uninhabited place, and the crowds looked for him, and came to him, and held on to him, so that he would not go away from them.
43 Nowe akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “No nginya hunjie Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa ũthamaki wa Ngai matũũra-inĩ marĩa mangĩ o namo, nĩ ũndũ nĩkĩo ndaatũmirwo.”
But he said to them, "I must proclaim the good news of the Kingdom of God to the other cities also. For this reason I have been sent."
44 Nake agĩthiĩ na mbere na kũhunjia thĩinĩ wa thunagogi cia Judea.
And he was preaching in the synagogues of Galilee.
