Lukha 5
1 Pwu lino gukhahumila unsikhi avanu upu valundamine nu khunchungula u Yisu nu khupulihicha ilimenyu lya Nguluve, upwu akhimile palukanji mndisiva lya Genesaleti.
On one occasion, Jesus was standing beside the lake of Gennesaret, and the crowd was pressing in on him to listen to the word of God.
2 Akhavuvona uvwato vuvili vwimile khulukanji khulisiva. Avilova vakhavile vahumile pwu valikusukha inyafu cha vene.
He saw two boats moored beside the lake, but the fishermen had gotten out of them and were washing their nets.
3 UYisu akhingila mmbwato vumo uvwa Simoni nu khudova ahilikhe mundugasi patali padebe na khuvulagafu. Pwu akhatama nu khumanyisya ukhuhumile khuwato.
He got into one of the boats, the one that was Simon's, and asked him to put out a little way from the shore. Then he sat down and began teaching the crowds from the boat.
4 Ukhuchova akhambula u Simoni, “Hilikauwato wako pamagasi pagati nu khwisya inyafu chakho pwalove isomba.”
When he finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into the deep water and let down your nets for a catch.”
5 USimoni akhanda akhata, Ikuludeva, tuvombile imbombo ikilo yoni, salukhibate, kwu limenyu lyakho, nikwisya inyafu.
Simon answered him, “Master, we have worked hard throughout the entire night and have caught nothing, but at yoʋr word I will let down the net.”
6 Vavugahile evwo vakhahundamania isomba nyingi ni nyafu chavene chakhatengula ukhudumukha.
When he and the men with him did so, they enclosed such a large number of fish that their net began to break.
7 Pwu vakhavavula avayavo avakhuvwato uvunge viche khutangila. Vakhiche vakhadicha uvwato vwoni, chikhatangula ukhuyuvama.
So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and assist them, and they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink.
8 Pwu Simoni Petro, avile alolile evo, akhagwa pa mafugamilo ga Yisu akhata, “Hega khuliune, ulwakhuve une nilumunu ntulanongwa Inkuludeva.”
When Simon Peter saw this, he fell down at Jesus' knees and said, “Depart from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man.”
9 Ulwakhuva valikudega, ne voni uvuvalipwo nu mwene, pakhulova isomba uvuvakhavombile.
For he and all who were with him were gripped with astonishment at the catch of fish they had taken,
10 Ili likhavalundaminio uyakhobo nu Yohana umwana va Sebedayo, uvu ava vakhale paninie nu Simoni. Nu Yisu akhambula u Simoni, “ulekhe ukhudwada, ulwakuva ukhuhuma lino vulutoga kwilova avanu.”
and so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. Then Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid; from now on yoʋ will be catching people.”
11 Vuvavile valelile vwato khuvuchila lugasi, vakhakhikha kila khinu nu khunkonga umwene.
So they brought their boats to shore, left everything, and followed Jesus.
12 Pwu yikha humila ukhuta ujini gumo, umunu uvia digile iboba ale ukhwa. Unsikhi avile ikhumbona u Yisu, akhagwa akhinamila amiho ga mwene mpakha pasi nu khutova, akhata, “Inkuludeva, ingave vwinogwa, wiwesya ukuhumbalacha.”
While Jesus was in one of the towns, behold, there was a man full of leprosy. When the man saw Jesus, he fell on his face and begged him, “Lord, if yoʋ are willing, yoʋ can make me clean.”
13 Pwu Yisu akhagolola ikhivokho kya mwene nu khumwabasya, akhata, “Ninogwa. Valela.” Unsikhu gula gula ibuba yikhandekha.
So Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be made clean.” Immediately the leprosy left him.
14 “Akhandagila alikhe ukhumbula umunu pwu akhambula, “Lutaga ukhavonesye, kumakuhani nu khumie isadaka ya vuvalacho vwakho, khi hwanini nu lulagilo lwa Mose ukhulola khuvene.”
Then Jesus ordered him to tell no one, but said, “Go show yoʋrself to the priest, and make an offering for yoʋr cleansing, just as Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”
15 Pwu inongwa icha mwene chukhaluta khuvutali ficho, ni khipuga kya vanu khekhicha paninie khukho mpulihicha vwi manyisya nu khuponia amatamu gavene.
But the news about Jesus spread even more, and large crowds would gather together to hear him and to be healed by him of their infirmities.
16 Pwu imisikhi gyoni alikwiyepusya khuvutitu nu khwisaya.
But he would often withdraw to desolate places and pray.
17 Pu yeikhava mumanchuva ngala eilinchuva leimo pu amanyisyangha, ava Farisai navamanyisi vanda ngeilo valaamile baho, avuvahumile muvunchenghe vwoni uvwa Mungalileya na mumbu Yuta, na khu Yelusalemu. Pu navuvuvahaha wa Nkuludeva vwalepwo ukhuta pwa ponianghe avatamu.
On one of those days, as he was teaching, some Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there. They had come from every village of Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem, and the power of the Lord was present to heal the people.
18 Avanu valive vakhancha, vagegde mulitefu umunu uvei aposinche, vakhalonda einjila ya khu mwing'eincha eigati va gonei pasi khuva longolo khwa Yisu.
And behold, some men brought on a bed a man who was paralyzed. They were trying to bring him in and place him before Jesus.
19 Pu leino vavile valemilwe apa khunghenda pakhuva pale pafinye pasipali apakhuluta avanu vale vingi eilipungha eilivaha, pu vakhatongha khukyanya khukanu pavakha pelelencha mumapamba angha khukyanya puvakhamwisya utamu mukhei hangha khya mwene panghati pavalongolo upu ale u Yisu.
But when they could not find a way to bring him in because of the crowd, they went up on the housetop and let him down through the tiles, together with his mat, into the middle of the crowd in front of Jesus.
20 Alolile uweedechi wayene, u Yisu akhaachove, “Imanyani, imbivi nchakho usyei khiliwe.”
When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the man, “Man, yoʋr sins are forgiven yoʋ.”
21 Pu leino avamanya kalata nava Farisai valeinkuta, vei veni uyu uveinchova amamenyu ngha imbedo, veni uvyaleinamakha ngha khusyeikheila inogwa, pu nyakhusyei kheila alei yu Nguluve mwene?”
But the scribes and the Pharisees began to question what Jesus said: “Who is this that speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”
22 UYisu, wikhulumanya khekhi ikhyo visaga, akhavanda akhata khekhi mkhivucha vucha ili munumbula chinyo?
Aware of their thoughts, Jesus answered them, “Why are you questioning in your hearts?
23 Khilekhu khejebepe ukhuta inongwa chakho chisyekheliwe nukhuta 'Ima ugendage?'
Which is easier, to say, ‘Yoʋr sins are forgiven yoʋ,’ or to say, ‘Rise and walk’?
24 Mlamanye ukhuta umwana va Adamu alinago amakha nkilunga ga khusiekhela inongwa, nukuvavula, 'Uveve sisimokha, tola ilitefu lyakho ulutage khu nyumba yakho.”
But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—he said to the paralyzed man—“I say to yoʋ, rise, pick up yoʋr mat, and go to yoʋr house.”
25 Unsikhi gugugwa akhasisimokha kuvulongolo khuvene pwu akhatola ilitefu lya mwene ilyu alikhugonela. Pwu alinkuvuya khu Unguluve.
Immediately the man rose up before them, picked up what he had been lying on, and went to his house, glorifying God.
26 Umunu nu munu alinkhudega nu khunginia Unguluve. Vakhadiga nu uvudwacji, nu khuta, “Tuchiwene imbombo cha khudega ilelo.”
Amazement seized them all, and they too began glorifying God. Filled with awe, they said, “We have seen extraordinary things today.”
27 Imbombo ichi vuchihomile, u Yisu akhahuma ukhwa akhambona unsonga songa uvialikwelangiwa Lawi atamile apakhusongecha isongo. Akhambula, “Ingongege.”
After this Jesus went out and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax booth. Jesus said to him, “Follow me,”
28 Pwu u Lawi akhavikha nu khunkonga, akhafilekha kila khinu khunsana.
and leaving everything behind, Levi rose and followed him.
29 Ulawi akhavikha ikhyakha ikhiva na khu nyumbaya mwene iya Yisu. Vakhavepo asonga songo vingi navanu vingi vatamile na vene.
Then Levi gave a great banquet for Jesus in his house, and there was a large crowd of tax collectors and others reclining at the table with them.
30 Ava Mafarisai na vasimbi vavo vali kuvasikhitile avakonga, vali uta, “Khekhi mwilya nu khunywa na vatule nongwa na vasonga songo na vanu avange avatula ningwa?”
But the scribes of the people and the Pharisees were grumbling at his disciples, saying, “Why are you eating and drinking with tax collectors and sinners?”
31 UYisu akavanda, “Avanu avanonu savilonela uganga, vala aratamu vu ya vikhondanda yumo.
Jesus answered them, “It is not those who are well who have need of a physician, but those who are sick.
32 Sanikhichile kukalonda avayihweli vapale hata nikhuviolanga avatula no ngwa vapele.”
I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”
33 Vakhavavula, “Avakongi va Yohana imisikhi gyoni nu valikhudinda nu khudova, avakongi va Mafarisai navope vivomba vule vule. Pwu avakongi vako vilya nu khunywa.”
Then they said to him, “Why is it that the disciples of John often fast and offer prayers, and likewise the disciples of the Pharisees, but yoʋrs eat and drink?”
34 UYisu akhavavula, “Yiwesekhana umunu nu munu vala awafikhe khundoa ya nya ndoa widinda wu unyandoa vu bado pu paninie?
Jesus said to them, “Can you make the bridegroom's attendants fast while the bridegroom is with them?
35 Pwu ifigono fikhwicha unsikhi gwa nyandoayavikhung'echa kuvenu pwo ifigono ifyo yavidinda.”
But those days are coming, and when the bridegroom is taken away from them, they will fast in those days.”
36 Khange u Yisu akhachova navene kwu khihwani. “Asikhuli uvilekha na ikhupicha kya mwenda ukhuhuma khumwenda umpya ukhunocha khumwenda ugwa khatale. Ingave ngavombe evwo, ikhugolekha umwenda umpya, na ikhipicha kya mwenda ukhuhuma umwenda umpya sakhinogelanila ukhuvomba nu mwenda unkulu.
He also told them a parable: “No one puts a patch from a new garment on an old garment. For not only would he tear the new garment, but the patch from the new garment would not match the old garment.
37 Khange, asikhuli umunu uvivekha idivai imya kufikopo ifya katale. Ingave ivomba ewo, idivai imya yikhale yibachola ikyombo, nayi divai yikhale yidudekha, ifichupa fikhala finangikho.
And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. For the new wine would burst the wineskins and would itself be spilled, and the wineskins would be ruined.
38 Idivai imya lunonu ukhuvikha mufichupa ifipya.
But new wine must be put into new wineskins, and then both are preserved.
39 Mwikho umunu vwa nywile idivai lya khatale, ukhunogwa imya, ulwakhuva ita, 'Iya khatale nonu.'”
And no one after drinking old wine immediately desires new wine, for he says, ‘The old is better.’”
