Luka 15
1 Awa neehangulya uushulu wehi nawa niangiza nianyamilandu aazile kung'wa Yesu kumutegeelya
Now all the tax collectors and sinners were approaching him to hear him.
2 awa neandeka ikamulongela ikalunga “Umuntu uyu weakalibisha enyamilandu hangi welya neenso.”
And the Pharisees and the scholars murmured, saying, This man receives sinners and eats with them.
3 U Yesu wikatambula mpyani eye kung'wao, nukulunga
And he spoke this parable to them, saying,
4 Nyenyu kitanyu, angeze ukete nkolo mia moja angawalimigwe neng'wi ao, shanga ukualeka awa netisini na tisa, alongole kumeduma eye nelimie wameone?
What man of you, having a hundred sheep, and having lost one of them, does not leave behind the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go for that which was lost until he finds it?
5 Nung'wenso anga wamelije wemekenka mumaega akwe nukiloelya.
And when he finds it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
6 Anga wapike munyumba, wiitanga eahumba auyanianyakisale akwe nukuaila iloelyi palung'wi nune kunsoko namepata enkolo ane nazelimie.
And when he comes to the house, he calls together his men friends and his men neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost.
7 Kumuila uu, uu, ikutula wiloelyo ukulu kilunde kunso umunyamilandu ung'wi nutubile.
I say to you, that thus there will be joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety-nine righteous men who have no need of repentance.
8 Ang'wi ukole musunguke nukete sarafu ikumi niyahela, anga walimiligwe nesarafu eng'we, shanga ukakilane ntala nukupyagula munyumba nukumiduma kwangulu mpaka wamelije?
Or what woman having ten drachmas, if she lose one drachma, does not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and seek diligently until she finds it?
9 Angawamione weitanga eahumba ekwe neanyakisale akwe nukuaila iloelyi palung'wi nunene kunsoko namilija hangi esarafu ane eye naelimiie.
And when she has found it, she calls together her lady friends and lady neighbors, saying, Rejoice with me, because I found the drachma that I lost.
10 Kuite kumuila, ukole wiloelyi ntongeela amalaika ang'wi Tunda, kunsoko amunyamilandu ung'wi nukutubu.”
Thus I say to you, there becomes joy in the presence of the agents of God over one sinner who repents.
11 Nu Yesu akaaila, muntu ung'wi aukete ana abiile.
And he said, A certain man had two sons,
12 Uyu numunino wikamuila tatakwe, Tata mpe une isalo lane nilengwie kusala. Ite wikaagawila insao yakwe, kati ao.
and the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falls to me. And he divided to them his living.
13 Nsiku singa yedu uyu numunino wekilingila ehi naukete akalongola kesale kakule, nukung'wenso wekasapatilya impia yakwe nukuguli maintu nesingutakile, nukusapatilya impia yakwe kwa usambo.
And not many days after, the younger son, having gathered all together, journeyed into a distant country, and there he squandered his wealth living recklessly.
14 Nung'wenso naukondilye kitumila ehi enzala nkulu ekingila mihe nanso, nung'wenso akatula lompa.
And when he spent all, a mighty famine developed in that country, and he began to be in want.
15 Akalongola ung'wenso nukisalisa nukutula ung'wiao mihe nanso, nung'wenso wekamutala kumugunda wakwe kulesa ingulue.
And having gone, he was joined to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
16 Wikatula ukete nsula akilesa emaganda naeikulya ingulue, kunsoko aetile anga muntu naumupee kintu nekakulya.
And he longed to fill his belly from the husks that the swine ate, and no man gave to him.
17 Sunga uyu ung'wana naukimbule munkolo akwe, wikalunga atung'wa anga neang'wa tatane akete indya yedu ikondile unene nkole apa, kusha nanzala?
But when he came to himself, he said, How many hired men of my father's have abundance of loaves, but I am perishing with hunger.
18 Kulutya nongole kung'wa tatane, nekina, “Tata natumula migulya kilunde nukuntongeela amiho ako.
After rising, I will go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and in thy sight.
19 Shainonee kitangwa neng'wako hange, ntende anga ning'wi wao watugwa ako.”
I am no more worthy to be called thy son. Make me as one of thy hired men.
20 Uu wekahega wikalongola kung'wa tata akwe. Aekele ukole kule utata akwe wikamuonela ukia wikamumankila nukumukumbasela nukumulungila.
And having risen, he went to his father. But while he was still distant, afar off, his father saw him and felt compassion. And having ran, he fell on his neck, and kissed him much.
21 Ung'wana nuanso wekamuila, “tata natumula migulya kilunde nukuntongela amiho ako singainonee nitangwe ning'wako.”
And the son said to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven and in thy sight. I am no more worthy to be called thy son.
22 Utata akwe wikaaela atugwa akwe “kayi leti ung'wenda uyo numuza, mukumbi mumutugale ipete kushala niilatu kumegulu.
But the father said to his bondmen, Bring forth the best robe and clothe him, and give a ring for his hand, and shoes for his feet.
23 Hange muleti ung'wang'ombe uyu numugenu mumusinze kulye kiloelye.
And having brought the fatted calf, kill it, and having eaten, we will be cheerful,
24 Kunsoko ung'wane waioka ukole mupanga. Aulimie nung'wenso wigela ikandya kilumbilya.
because this my son was dead, and became alive again. And he was lost, and is found. And they began to be cheerful.
25 Ingi ung'wana numukulu aukole kumugunda naupembilye wikahumbela pito wikija nduli ya nyemboneakiginsa.
But his elder son was in a field. And while coming, having approached the house, he heard music and dancing.
26 Wikitanga mutugwa ung'wi wikamukolya imakani aya endogoelyo ntuni?
And having summoned one of the boys, he inquired what these things might be.
27 Umutugwa wikamuela umunino ako waza nutata ako wamusinzila ung'wang'ombe numuginu kunsoko wasuka mupanga.”
And he said to him, Thy brother arrived, and thy father has killed the fatted calf, because he received him back healthy.
28 Ung'wana numukulu wikabepelwa wikahita kingila munyumba nutataakwe wikapuma kunzi kumupepelya.
But he was angry, and would not go in. Therefore, his father having come out, he called him.
29 Sunga wikasusha kung'wa tatakwe nukulunga, “Goza unene nukitumie myaka edu, hange nkele ntumuile ilago lako, kuite ukele kumpa ung'wambuli nihume kiloelya neahumba eane.
But having answered, he said to his father, Lo, so many years do I serve thee, and I never passed by a commandment of thine, and yet thou never gave me a goat that I might be merry with my friends.
30 Kuite nazuzile ung'wako uyu naewiginseye insao yako yehi palung'wi neasambo wamusenzila ung'ombe uyu numugenu.
But when this thy son came, who has devoured thy living with harlots, thou killed for him the fatted calf.
31 Utata wikamuila, “Ng'waane uewe ukole palung'wi nunene mahiku ehi hange ehi nenkete une ako.
And he said to him, Child, thou are always with me, and all my things are yours.
32 Inge aaukole iza kitaitu kitume sherehe nukiloelya, umulunako aewakule, nitungo ile, ukole mupanga, aewalimie wigela.
But it was needful to make merry and be glad, because this thy brother was dead, and became alive again, and was lost, and was found.
