Lukha 4
1 Pwu, Yisu vwu adigile umepo umbalache akhakhuya ukhuma khu khihulu kya Yoldani, akhagegiwa nu Mepo Umbalache
Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan River and was led by the Spirit into the desert,
2 Kwu figono alubaini, ukwa alikhugeliwa nu setano. Unsikhi ugwa salikulya njala.
where he was tempted by the devil for forty days. He didn't eat anything during that whole time, so at the end he was starving.
3 Usetano akhambula, “Ingave uveve ulimwana va Nguluve, pinelula iliwe live nkate.”
The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.”
4 UYisu akhambula, “Yisimbiwe; 'umnu sakhatame nu nkata vuvule.”
“It is written in Scripture, ‘You shall not live on bread alone,’” Jesus answered.
5 Pwu setano akhandogocha kwu vu malilo vwa kyamba akhambonesya uvutwa, vwoni wa khilunga kwu nsikhi unsupi.
The devil led him up to a high place, and in a rapid view showed him all the kingdoms of the world.
6 Usetano akhata ni khukhupa, “Nikhukhupo uvwa yilweli vwa khalongocha uvuvaha uvwu woni paninie, nu vuvaha vwa pene. Nigaha evwo ulwakhuva foni amile one mfidemage, nu khumpa umunu uvininogwa ukhumpa.
Then the devil said to Jesus, “I will give you authority over all of them, and their glory. This authority has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want.
7 Pwu lino, ingave vugundama ni kwisaya, ifinu ifi fyoni fiva fyakho.”
Bow down and worship me and you can have it all.”
8 Pwu Yisu akhanda akhata, “Yesimbiwe, “Vwisayage kwa Nguluve vakho, nu khumbombela umwene vuvule.”
“It is written in Scripture, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve only him,’” Jesus replied.
9 Pwu setano akhandongocha u Yisu khu Yerusalemu nu khumbikha pakyanya ficho pu nyumba ya tembile nu khumbula, “Ingave uveve ulimwana va Nguluve, ila hilile pasi ukhuhuma apa.
The devil took Jesus to Jerusalem, set him on the top of the Temple, and told him, “If you are the Son of God, then jump!
10 Ulwakhuva yisimbiwe, “Ilagicha avasungwa va mwene va khuvikhe nu khukhudima,
For it is written in Scripture, ‘He will order his angels to care for you,
11 hange yavikwukwinola mmavokho gavene ulekhe ukhulemala amalunde gakho nilivwe.”
holding you up to protect you from stumbling over a stone.’”
12 UYisu akhanda akhata, “Lichovivwe, “Ulanngela ukuludeva Unguluve vakho.”
“It is written in Scripture, ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God,’” Jesus replied.
13 Usetano vwa malile ukhugela u Yisu, akhahega nu khundekha upwu gufikhaga unsikhi ugunge.
When the devil had completed all his temptations, he waited for another opportunity.
14 Pwu Yisu akhavuya kwu Galilaya na makha ga mepo, ni nongwa cha mwene chikhaluta ifikongo fyoni ifili paninie.
Jesus returned to Galilee, full of the Spirit's power. News about him spread everywhere.
15 Alikumanyisya mtembile cha vene, pwu munu nu munu alikhuginia.
Jesus taught in their synagogues, and everyone praised him.
16 Ikhinge ikhigono akhaluta Mnazareti, ikhilunga ikhyu atamile nu khu kila, neluvuyivile ulwiho lwa mwene akhingela mtembile ikhigono kya sabato, pwu khima ni kwimba uvusimbe.
When he arrived in Nazareth, where he had grown up, he went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day as usual.
17 Vakhampa iligombo lya nyamalogo u Isaya, pwu, pwu akhadindula iligombo, nu khulonda upwu yisimbiwe,
The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Jesus unrolled the scroll and found the place where it's written:
18 Umepo va Nkuludeva alipakyanya paliune ulwakhuva ambakhile i mono ukhulumbilila inongwa inonu kwu va lemilwe. Asuhile kuvavula uvuvopolwe kwuvakungiwe ukhuvavikha uvusa vilola valolage khange. Ukhuvavikha mbuvapolwa avigatachivwa,
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, for he has anointed me to announce good news to the destitute. He has sent me to proclaim that prisoners will be released, the blind will see, the oppressed will be freed,
19 ukhuvavula umwakhe ugwu ukhuludeva ikhovavonesya ulugano lwa mwene.”
and to proclaim the time of the Lord's favor.”
20 Pwa akhadinda iligombo, lya mwene akhankilivolela undongochi va tembile, pwu akhatama pasi. Amiho ga vanu voni uvuvala mu tembile valikundola umwene.
He rolled up the scroll and gave it back to the attendant. Then he sat down. Everybody in the synagogue was staring at him.
21 Akhatengula ukhuchova navo alikhuta, “Ilelo uvusimbe uvwu vufkhe mu mbulukhutu chenyo.”
“This Scripture you've just heard has been fulfilled today!” he told them.
22 Pala khila munu alikhulola ikyu alikhuchova u Yisu, nu vingi uvuvalepwo valikhudega na mamenyu ga luhala ugwa galikhu kumo mundomo gwa mwene. valinkuta, “Uyu mwana vuvule va Yosefu, savu yilivwo?”
Everybody expressed their approval of him, amazed at the gracious words that came from his lips. “Isn't this Joseph's son?” they wondered.
23 UYisu au havavula, “Lweli yamwichova ikhihnicho ikhi kyulyune, 'Uliganga iponie yuve. kyoyoni ikyutupulikhe ulikhuvomba kwu kapernaumu, uvombe pakhijiji kyakho apa.”
Jesus replied, “I'm sure you'll repeat this proverb to me, ‘Physician, heal yourself!’ and ask, ‘Why don't you do here in your own hometown what we heard you did in Capernaum?’
24 Khange akhata, “lweli nikhuvavula umwe, asikhuli unyamalago uvevi khumwidikha mkilunga kya kya mwene.”
But I tell you the truth, no prophet is accepted in his hometown.
25 Pwu nikhuvavula umwe lweli ukhuta valipwo avalekhwa vingi mu Israeli imisikhi gya Eliya, khukhanya kwa dindiwe khulekhe ukhuva ni fula imiakha kidatu ne nusu, vwukhulini njala imbaha ikhilunga kywoni.
I guarantee that there were many widows in Israel during the time of Elijah when there was a drought for three and a half years, causing a great famine throughout the country.
26 Khange u Eliya sakhasuhiwe kwu munu nuvalyumo, pwu khunde kwa yumo vuvule uviatamaga Mselepta pipi na khunji ni ugwa Msidoni.
Yet Elijah wasn't sent to any of them. He was sent to a widow in Zarephath in the region of Sidon!
27 Khange, vale ekhwo na boba vingi imiakha gya Elisha unyamalago, pwa asikhuli nuvalyomo uvi aponile yu Naamani umunu va msiria.
Even though there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha, the only one who was healed was Naaman the Syrian!”
28 Avanu voni mgati mutembile vadigile ilyoyo vavile vipulikhe aga goni.
When they heard this everyone in the synagogue became furious.
29 Vakhima nukhu kuhugecha khunji khujini, nukhundungocha ukhufikha kuvumelilo vwa jini upwu ujini kwa vene kwa chengiwe khukyanya, pwu vantage pasi.
They jumped to their feet and threw him out of the town. Then they dragged him to the top of the hill on which the town was built in order to throw him off the cliff.
30 Pwu akhaluta vunonu pagati pavene akhilutila.
But he walked right through them and went on his way.
31 Pwu khikha mu Kapernaumu, mjini ugwa Galilaya. Isabato yimo alikumanyisye avanu mgato nu mtembile.
Jesus went down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee. On Sabbath he started teaching them.
32 Valikudega nulumanyisyo lwa vene, ulwa khuva alikhumanyisya khu makha.
They were amazed at what he taught them for he spoke with authority.
33 Pwu ikhigono ikhyo mgati mtembile, ale epwo umunu unyamepo imbivi, pwu akhalila khulimenyu ilya kukhyanya,
In the synagogue there was a man who was possessed by a demon. He cried out,
34 “Tulinikhekhi nuve, Yesu va Mnasareti? Wichile kukhotuyocha? Nihemanyila uve veve veni! Veve mbalache va Nguluve!”
“So, what do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: God's Holy One!”
35 UYisu akhadukha khumepo akhata, “Nunala mye, khange uhume mu munu oyu!” Imepo ila yikhataga umunu ule pasi pagati pavene, akhahuma mu munu khange sakivone uluvavo.
Jesus interrupted him, saying. “Be quiet!” Then he ordered the demon, “Come out of him!” Throwing him to the ground right before them, the demon left the man without injuring him.
36 Avanu voni valikudega, khange valikupichova imbombo iyo umunu nu nunine. Valikuta, “Gomanyu makhi aga?” Ilamula imepo imbivi khuvutwa na makha vevihege.”
They were all amazed and asked each other, “What is this teaching? With power and authority he orders evil spirits to leave—and they do!”
37 Pwu, imongwa cha Yisu chilikhuluta kwoni mu khilunga ikhichongotile unkoa ugwa.
News about Jesus spread throughout the nearby region.
38 Pwu Yisu akhahega mjini vgwa pwa akhingela munyumba ya Simoni. Pwu, unkwive nu Simoni alikhuva vivwa ihoma ingali, pwu vakhammbembelesya avange.
Leaving the synagogue, Jesus went to Simon's house. Simon's mother-in-law was sick with a high fever and those who were there asked Jesus to help.
39 Pwu, u Yisuakhang'elelela, akhadukha ihoma yikhandekha. Pwu akhima akhatengula ukhuvavombela.
Jesus went and stood over her. He told the fever to leave her—which it did. She got up right away and prepared a meal for them.
40 Ilichova vulikhwingela, avanu vakhendetela u Yisu umunu nuvotamu vwa uvwavechaga. Alikhuvikha amavokho gamwene pa kyanya pa ntamu pwu vakhapona voni.
When the sun set, they brought to him all who were sick, suffering from various diseases. Jesus placed his hands on them, one after the other, and he healed them.
41 Imepo chope chikhavahumaavingi vali kulila kwu elimenyu nukhuta, “Uve veve mwana va Nguluve!” UYisu akhadukha imipepo nukuvavula vachove, ulwakhuva valumanyile ukhuta umwene akhala vi Kristi.
Demons came out of many people, shouting, “You are the Son of God.” But Jesus stopped them and refused to let them speak because they knew he was the Christ.
42 Unsikhi vu khutandalukha, akhaluta ukhuvasikuli na vanu. Ululundamano lwa vanu valikhundonda pwu vakhichaukwu likwo. Vagela ukhukihivula alekhe ukhuluta khutali na vene.
Early the following morning Jesus left to find some peace and quiet. But the crowds went out looking for him, and finally found him. They tried to stop him leaving because they did not want him to go.
43 Pwu akhavavula, “Lasima nilumbilile ilimenyu ilinonu lya vutwa vwa Nguluve mu miji iginge mingi, ulwakhuva khyu mene nisuhivwe apa.”
But he told them, “I have to go to other towns to tell them the good news of the kingdom of God too, because that is what I was sent to do.”
44 Pwu alikhuluta khulumbilila mgati mtembile mumbuyahudi mwoni.
So Jesus went on traveling around, teaching the good news in the synagogues of Judea.
