Luka 15
1 Awa neehangulya uushulu wehi nawa niangiza nianyamilandu aazile kung'wa Yesu kumutegeelya
Then drew near to him all the tax collectors and sinners to hear him.
2 awa neandeka ikamulongela ikalunga “Umuntu uyu weakalibisha enyamilandu hangi welya neenso.”
And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth 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 an hundred sheep, if he loseth one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he findeth it?
5 Nung'wenso anga wamelije wemekenka mumaega akwe nukiloelya.
And when he hath found it, he layeth 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 cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying to them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost.
7 Kumuila uu, uu, ikutula wiloelyo ukulu kilunde kunso umunyamilandu ung'wi nutubile.
I say to you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine righteous persons, who need no repentance.
8 Ang'wi ukole musunguke nukete sarafu ikumi niyahela, anga walimiligwe nesarafu eng'we, shanga ukakilane ntala nukupyagula munyumba nukumiduma kwangulu mpaka wamelije?
Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she loseth one piece, doth not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she findeth it?
9 Angawamione weitanga eahumba ekwe neanyakisale akwe nukuaila iloelyi palung'wi nunene kunsoko namilija hangi esarafu ane eye naelimiie.
And when she hath found it, she calleth her friends and her neighbours together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I had lost.
10 Kuite kumuila, ukole wiloelyi ntongeela amalaika ang'wi Tunda, kunsoko amunyamilandu ung'wi nukutubu.”
Likewise, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.
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 falleth 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 gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.
14 Nung'wenso naukondilye kitumila ehi enzala nkulu ekingila mihe nanso, nung'wenso akatula lompa.
And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; 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 he went and joined himself to a citizen 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 was longing to fill his belly with 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?
And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father have bread enough and to spare, and I am perishing with hunger!
18 Kulutya nongole kung'wa tatane, nekina, “Tata natumula migulya kilunde nukuntongeela amiho ako.
I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,
19 Shainonee kitangwa neng'wako hange, ntende anga ning'wi wao watugwa ako.”
And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.
20 Uu wekahega wikalongola kung'wa tata akwe. Aekele ukole kule utata akwe wikamuonela ukia wikamumankila nukumukumbasela nukumulungila.
And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.
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, and 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 servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet:
23 Hange muleti ung'wang'ombe uyu numugenu mumusinze kulye kiloelye.
And bring here the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry:
24 Kunsoko ung'wane waioka ukole mupanga. Aulimie nung'wenso wigela ikandya kilumbilya.
For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.
25 Ingi ung'wana numukulu aukole kumugunda naupembilye wikahumbela pito wikija nduli ya nyemboneakiginsa.
Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing.
26 Wikitanga mutugwa ung'wi wikamukolya imakani aya endogoelyo ntuni?
And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.
27 Umutugwa wikamuela umunino ako waza nutata ako wamusinzila ung'wang'ombe numuginu kunsoko wasuka mupanga.”
And he said to him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound.
28 Ung'wana numukulu wikabepelwa wikahita kingila munyumba nutataakwe wikapuma kunzi kumupepelya.
And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore his father came out, and entreated 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.
And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither have I at any time transgressed thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:
30 Kuite nazuzile ung'wako uyu naewiginseye insao yako yehi palung'wi neasambo wamusenzila ung'ombe uyu numugenu.
But as soon as this thy son had come, who hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast 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, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine.
32 Inge aaukole iza kitaitu kitume sherehe nukiloelya, umulunako aewakule, nitungo ile, ukole mupanga, aewalimie wigela.
It was right that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.
