Luka 13
1 Kumatungo yayoyayo, aakole baadhi aantu naamuie migulya Aagalilaya kuite upilato auabulagile nukuahalinkanya usakami ao nimasongilyo oa.
Now there were present some, in that very season, bringing tidings to him, concerning the Galilaeans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.
2 U Yesu akaasukilya akaaila, “Ite mulungile Eagalilaya awa akete milandu kukila Agalilaya neangiza ehi ee indogoelyo apatilwe naya nemabe?
And, answering, he said unto them—Suppose ye, that, these Galilaeans, had become, sinners beyond all the Galilaeans, because, these things, they have suffered?
3 Kutile, kumuila, lakini angamuhite kutubu, nunyenye mukulimiila uu, uu,
Nay! I tell you, but, except ye repent, ye, all, in like manner, shall perish.
4 Ite awa aantu nikumi namunana ku Siloamu nsoko umunana nauugwie nukuabulaga, musegile neanso aeanyamilandu kukila aantu niangiza ku Yerusalemu?
Or, those eighteen, upon whom fell the tower in Siloam, and slew them, suppose ye that, they, had become, debtors, beyond all the men who were dwelling in Jerusalem?
5 Kutile unene, kutambula lakini angamuhite kutubu, unye mehinunyenye mukulimeela.
Nay! I tell you, but, except ye repent, ye, all, in the same way, shall perish.
6 U Yesu wakaaila kumpyani eye, “Muntu ung'wi aukite mutini utemewe mukate amugunda wakwe aewendile kuduma inkali migulya lakini akaulya.
And he went on to speak this parable: —A certain man had, a fig-tree, planted in his vineyard, and he canto seeking fruit therein, and found none.
7 Akamuila umutunzi wakianza, “Goza, kumyaka itatu nezile kugema kuduma inkali yakwe mumutini uwu lakini nikaulya. Uuteme. Kunsoko ukuleta uube mihe?
And he said unto the vine-dresser—Lo! three years, I come, seeking fruit in this fig-tree, and find none. Cut it down! Why doth it make, even the round useless?
8 Umutunzi wakianza wikaasukilya nukuaila; uleki ung'waka uwuite nuuginge nukuekila embolea migulya akwe.
And, he, answering, saith unto him—Sir! let it alone this year also, until such time as I dig about it, and throw in manure, —
9 Anga watuga inkali yakwe ung'waka nuuzile, iza, lakini angawahita kutuga uuteme!”
and if it may bear fruit for the future; …but, otherwise, certainly, thou shalt cut it down.
10 Itungile u Yesu akatula amanyisa mujawapo wamatekeelo matungo a Sabato.
And he was teaching in one of the synagogues, on the Sabbath.
11 Goza, aukole musungu ung'we nsoko myaka kumi na munana aukete nkolo mbee auneketu. Nung'wenso aewipendile aimigila anga uhumi lukulu nuwakimika.
And lo! a woman, having a spirit of weakness eighteen years, —and was bowed together, and unable to lift herself up, at all.
12 U Yesu naumuine, wakamitanga, akamuila, “Musungu ukole huru kupuma muudhaifu wako.”
And, seeing her, Jesus called her and said to her—Woman! thou art loosed from thy weakness, —
13 Akaika imekono akwe migulya akwe, kuite umwiite wake ukagoloka akamukulya Itunda.
and laid on her his hands; and, instantly, she was made straight again, and began glorifying God.
14 Uugwa u mukulu nua itekeelo ai utakile kunsoko u Yesu umugunile muntu luhiku nula kusupya, akasukiilya, aka atambuila i anyianza, “Mahiku mutandatu nazipie kituma u mulimo, uugwa pembyi, muagune mu mahiku nanso, hangi shanga mu luhiku nula Kusupya.”
But the synagogue-ruler, answering, being greatly displeased that, on the Sabbath, Jesus had healed, began saying unto the multitude—Six days, there are, in which men ought to get their work done; On them, therefore, come and be healed, and, not on the day of rest.
15 Umukulu wikamusukilya nukumuila, “Uteele! Kuite kina ung'we anyu witung'wila endogwe akwe ang'wi ng'ombe kupuma mitando nukuatongela kuatwala kung'wa uluhiku lakukulya?
The Lord answered him, and said—Hypocrites! Doth not, each one of you, on the Sabbath, loose his ox or ass from the manger, and, leading it away, give it drink?
16 Kuite umunanso wang'wa Abrahamu, nsoko u Shetani umutungile kumyaka kumi na munana. Ite shangaaizepiene ikitungo kakwe kileke kutunguelwa luhiku lakukulya?”
But, this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan had bound, lo! eighteen years, was there not a needs-be that she should be loosed from this bond, on the day of rest?
17 Nautuile kutambula imakani nanso, awa ehi naeakumugilya akahung'wa minyala, imakutano ehi neangiza ekalumbilya kunsoko amakani namakula naiwitumile.
And, as he was saying, these, things, all who had been setting themselves against him were being put to shame; and, all the multitude, were rejoicing over all the glorious things which were being brought to pass by him.
18 U Yesu wikatambula, “Utemi wang'wi Tunda wipyani nentuni, nakuwipyana nentuni?
He went on to say, therefore—Whereunto, is the kingdom of God, like? And, whereunto, shall I liken it?
19 Anga embeu amuharadali naumihoile umuntu ung'wi nukumitemela mumugonda wakwe, ikazepa ekatula mute ukulu, ninyunyi yakilunde yekazenga itie yao mumatambe akwe.
It is, like, unto a grain of mustard seed, which a man took and cast into his own garden; and it grew, and became a tree, and, the birds of heaven, lodged amongst its branches.
20 Ite akatambula, “Nuipyanye nintuni utemi wang'wi Tunda?
And, again, he said—Whereunto, shall I liken the kingdom of God?
21 Inge ihanganga iigae umusungu nuehola wekahalinkanya muipimo itatu niyautu yekaumuka.”
It is, like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, until, the whole, was leavened.
22 U Yesu augendee kila ikesale neisale munzila naulongoe ku Yerusalemu nukuamanyisa.
And he was journeying on, city by city and village by village, and making, progress, unto Jerusalem.
23 Muntu ung'wi wikakolya, “Mukulu, antu akehu dune niakuokolewa?” Ite wakaaila.
And one said unto him—Lord! are they, few, who are being saved? And, he, said unto them—
24 Ingimelye kingila kukiila mulango nuupinye kunsoko eedu akugema kingiila shangaakuweza.
Be striving to enter through the narrow door; for, many, I say unto you, will seek to enter, and will not be able, —
25 Kuite anga umukulu wa nyumba anga wingile nukufunga umulango, ite mukimeka kunzi nukukua ehodi pamulango nukiitanga, mukulu, mukulu, kuluguile nung'wenso ukusukilya nukuaila, shanganumumanyile unye kunamupumile.”
when once the householder shall rouse himself, and lock the door, and ye begin to stand, outside, and to knock at the door, saying—Lord! open to us; and he shall answer and say unto you—I know you not, whence ye are.
26 Ite mukulunga, Aekulie nukungwa ntongeela ako nuewe aukumanyisilye muisale yitu.”
Then, will ye begin to say—We did eat and drink in thy presence, and, in our broadways, thou didst, teach;
27 Lakini nuanso ukuasukilya, nukuaila, shanganumumanyile kumupumiie, hegi pitalane, unye nimituma imelandu!
And he will speak, saying unto you—I know not whence ye are; Depart from me, all workers of unrighteous—
28 Ikutula kelelo nukukelya emino matungo nimekaaona u Abrahamu, Isaka, Yakobo neitumii ehi muutemi wang'wi Tunda lakini inye unyenye mugumilwe kunzi.
There, will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, as soon as ye see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and, yourselves, being thrust forth outside.
29 Akapika kupuma kukilya, kung'weli, kutakama, nukukuma, nukusupya. Pameza aandya yampende muutemi wang'wi Tunda.
And they shall have come from east and west, and from north and south, and be made recline in the kingdom of God.
30 Nengile nuamwisho ukutula wang'wandyo nuyu nuang'wandyo ukutula wa mwisho”
And lo! there are, last, who shall be, first, and there are, first, who shall be, last;
31 Matungo makupe baadaye, ang'wi a mafarisayo aazile nukuaila, “Longola nahega apaite kunsoko u Herode utakile kuulaga.
In that very hour, came near certain Pharisees, saying unto him, Go forth, and be journeying hence, because, Herod, desireth to slay thee.
32 U Yesu akatambula, “Longoli mumuile umbweha, goza kuazunsa aapepo nukituma kukamya ilelo numudau, nuluhiku lakatatu kutimilya ilengo lane.
And he said unto them—Go and tell this fox, Lo! I am casting out demons, and, cures, am I finishing, to-day, and to-morrow, —
33 Kuhali ehi nanso, inge muhimu kunsoko ane kendelea eleleye, numudau, nuluhiku nulutyatie, kunsoko shangaigombigwe kumubulaga umitumi kule ni Yerusalemu.
and, on the third, I am to be made perfect. Nevertheless, I must needs, to-day, and tomorrow, and the following, be journeying on, because it is impossible that a prophet perish, outside Jerusalem.
34 Yerusalemu, Yerusalemu, nyenyu nukuabulaga eitumi nukuakua imagwe awa naatumilwe kitalanyu. Kanga naetakile kumilingila eana anyu anga inkuku nilingila eana akwe pihe ambaa yakwe, lakini shangamikalegomba ile.
Jerusalem! Jerusalem! she that slayeth the prophets, and stoneth them that are sent unto her! How often, have I desired to gather together thy children, like as a hen, her own brood, under her wings, —and ye did not desire!
35 Goza, inyumba ako alekwa. Nunene kumuila, shangamuhumile kuona nemekatambula ubarikiwe uyu nuzile kulina lang'wa Mukulu.
Lo! your house is left to you. [And] I say unto you—In nowise shall ye see me, until ye say, —Blessed, is he that cometh in the name of the Lord!
