Luka 10
1 Baada jha mambo agha, Bwana akahagula sabini bhangi, ni kubhalaghisya bhabhele bhabhele bhandongo lelayi mu khila mji ni lieneo lya atarajileghe kulota.
After this, the Master appointed seventy-two other disciples, and sent them on as his messengers, two and two, in advance, to every town and place that he was himself intending to visit.
2 Akabhajobhela, “Mavuno ghamehele, lakini bhabhomba mbombo bhadebe. Hivyo basi mun'sokayi Bwana ghwa mavuno, ili kwamba atumayi manyata bhabhomba mbombo mu mavuno gha muene.
‘The harvest,’ he said, ‘is abundant, but the labourers are few. Therefore pray to the owner of the harvest to send labourers to gather in his harvest.
3 Mulotayi mu miji. Mulangayi nikabhatuma kama kondoo pagati pa mbwa mwitu.
Now, go. Remember, I am sending you out as my messengers like lambs among wolves.
4 Musipendi mfuku ghwa hela, wala mikoba jha bhasafiri, wala firatu, wala msimponesi jhejhioha munjela.
Do not take a purse with you, or a bag, or sandals; and do not stop to greet anyone on your journey.
5 Katika nyumba jhejhioha jhamwibeta kujhingila, hoti mujobhayi, 'Amani jhiyelayi pa nyumba ejhe pala,
Whatever house you go to stay at, begin by praying for a blessing on it.
6 amani jha muenga jhibeta kubakila panani pa muene, lakini kama siyo, jhibeta kukerebhuka kwa muenga.
Then, if anyone there is deserving of a blessing, your blessing will rest on him; but if not, it will come back on yourselves.
7 Mubakilayi mu nyumba ejhu, muliajhi na munywayi kyabhibetakuphepela, kwandabha mfanyakazi ikastahili mshahara ghwa muene. Musihami kuhoma nyumba ejhe kulota jhenge.
Remain at that same house, and eat and drink whatever they offer you; for the worker is worth their wages. Do not keep changing from one house to another.
8 Mji bhobhuoha bhwa mwijhingila, ni kubhapokela, muliajhi kyokyoha kyakibetakubhekibhwa palongolo pa jhomu,
Whatever town you visit, if the people welcome you, eat what is set before you;
9 na muponyesiajhi bhatamu bhabhajhele omu mujhobha kwa bhene, 'ufalme bhwa K'yara uhidili karibu jha muene'
cure the sick there, and tell people that the kingdom of God is close at hand.
10 Lakini mu mji bhobhuoha bhamwibeta kujhingila, na bhasibhapokeli, mulotayi mu barabara na mujobhayi,
But, whatever town you go to visit, if the people do not welcome you, go out into its streets and say
11 'Hata lifu lya lijhele magolo gha jhotu tukalikung'hunda dhidi jha muenga! lakini mumanyajhi e'le, Ufalme bhwa K'yara ukaribili.'
“We wipe off the dust of your town which has clung to Our feet; still, be assured that the kingdom of God is close at Hand.”
12 Nikabhajobhela ligono lya hukumu libeta kujha ni ustahimilivu nesu kuliko sodoma kuliko mji obhu.
I tell you that the doom of Sodom will be more bearable on that day than the doom of that town.
13 Ole bhwaku Korazini, Ole bhwaku Bethsaida! Kama mbombo mbaha syasibhombiki mugati mwa jhobhi ngajhibhombiki Tiro ni Sidoni, ngabhatubuili lukhombi nesu, bhitama mugati mu nghobho sya magunila ni malienge.
Alas for you, Chorazin! Alas for you, Bethsaida! For, if the miracles which have been done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have sat in sackcloth and ashes and repented long ago.
14 Lakini jhibeta kujha usitahimilivu nesu ligono lya hukumu kwa Tiro ni Sidoni zaidi jha muenga.
Yet the doom of Tyre and Sidon will be more bearable at the judgment than yours.
15 Bhebhe Karperinaumu, wifikiri wibeta kujhinulibhwa hadi kumbinguni? Lepi wibetakuselesibhwa pasi hadi kuzimu (Hadēs g86)
And you, Capernaum! Will you exalt yourself to heaven? You will be flung down to Hades. (Hadēs g86)
16 Jhaibeta kubhap'elekesya muenga anip'elekesiajhi nene na jhejhioha jhaibeta kubhabela akanibeta nene, akambela jha anitumili “
Anyone who listens to you is listening to me, and anyone who rejects you is rejecting me; while the person who rejects me is rejecting him who sent me as his messenger.’
17 Bhala sabini bhakherebhuiki kwa furaha, bhakajobha, “Bwana, hata mapepo ghakatutii kwa lihina lya jhobhi.”
When the seventy-two returned, they exclaimed joyfully, ‘Master, even the demons submit to us when we use your name.’
18 Yesu akabhajobhela, “Nimbwene shetani abinili kuhoma kumbinguni kama radi.
And Jesus replied, ‘I have had visions of Satan, fallen, like lightning from the heavens.
19 Langayi nibhapelili mamlaka gha kukanya linjoka ni kip'el'el'e ni nghofu syoha sya adui, na kyelepi kyokyoha kwa njela jhejhioha kyakibeta kubhadhuru.
Remember, I have given you the power to trample on snakes and scorpions, and to meet all the strength of the Enemy. Nothing will ever harm you in any way.
20 Hata hivyo musihobhoki tu kwa e'le kwamba roho sikabhatii lakini muhobhokayi nesu kwamba mahina gha jhomu ghalembibhu kumbinguni.”
Yet do not rejoice in the fact that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names have been enrolled in heaven.’
21 Mu mda bhola bhola ahobhwiki nesu mu roho mtakatifu, ni kujobha, “Nikusifu bhebhe, Dadi, Bwana ghwa mbingu ni dunia, kwandabha ughafighili mambo agha kwa bhenye hekima ni luhala, ni kughafunula kwa bhabhafundisibhu lepi, kama bhana bhadebe. Ndo, Dadi, kwa kujha ngajhipendisi muhu gha jhobhi.”
At that same time, moved to exultation by the Holy Spirit, Jesus said: ‘I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that, though you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, you have revealed them to the childlike! Yes, Father, I thank you that this has seemed good to you.
22 “Khila khenu kikabidhibhu kwa nene ni Dadi jhangu, na ajhelepi jha amanyili mwana ndo niani ila mwana, na jhejhioha ambajho mwana inoghela kwifunula kwa muene.”
Everything has been committed to me by my Father; nor does anyone know who the Son is, except the Father, or who the Father is, except the Son and those to whom the Son may choose to reveal him.’
23 Akabhageukila bhanafunzi, akajobha pa faragha, “Bhabarikibhu bhabha kaghabhona agha ambagho nene nikaghabhona agha ambagho nene nikaghabhona.
Then, turning to his disciples, Jesus said to them alone, ‘Blessed are the eyes that see what you are seeing;
24 Nikabhajobhela muenga, kujha manabii bhamehele ni bhafalme bhanogheleghe kulola mambo gha mkaghabhona, na bhaghabhwene lepi ni mkaghap'eleka na bhaghap'eliki lepi.”
for, I tell you, many prophets and kings wished for the sight of the things which you are seeing, yet never heard them.’
25 Langayi, mwalimu fulani ghwa sheria jha kiyahudi ajhemili ni kun'jaribu, akajobha, “Mwalimu, niketa kiki ili niurithi uzima bhwa milele?” (aiōnios g166)
Just then a student of the Law came forward to test Jesus further. ‘Teacher,’ he said, ‘what must I do if I am to gain eternal life?’ (aiōnios g166)
26 Yesu akan'jobhela, “Kilembibhu kiki mu sheria? Ukaisoma bhuli?”
‘What is said in the Law?’ answered Jesus. ‘What do you read there?’
27 Akajibu akajobha, “Wibetakun'gana Bwana K'yara ghwa jhobhi kwa muoyo bhwa jhobhi bhuoha, kwa roho jha jhobhi jhioha, kwa nghofu sya jhobhi syoha, ni kwa luhala lwa jhobhi lwoha ni jirani jhakhu kama nafsi jha jhobhi ghwe muene.”
His reply was – ‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbour as you love yourself.’
28 Yesu akajobha, “Ujibili kwa usahihi. Ketayi mebhu na wibeta kuishi.”
‘You have answered right,’ said Jesus, ‘Do that, and you will live.’
29 Lakini Mwalimu, akalonda kwibhalangila haki muene, akan'jobhela Yesu, “Ni jirani jhangu niani?”
But the man, wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus, ‘And who is my neighbour?’
30 Yesu ajibili akajobha, “Munu fulani akajha iselela kuhoma Yerusalemu kulota Yeriko. Akabina pagati pa bhanyang'anyi, bhabhanyakili mali sya muene, ni kun'tobha ni kundeka karibu ajhe nusu kufwa.
To which Jesus replied, ‘A man was once going down from Jerusalem to Jericho when he fell into the hands of robbers, who stripped him of everything, and beat him, and went away leaving him half dead.
31 Kwa bahati kuhani fulani akajha iselela mu njela ejhu, bho ambwene akapeta lubhafu l'ongi.
As it chanced, a priest was going down by that road. He saw the man, but passed by on the opposite side.
32 Mebhwa ni mlawi kabhele, bho afikili mahali pala ni kumbona, akap'eta lubhafu l'ongi.
A Levite, too, did the same; he came up to the spot, but, when he saw the man, passed by on the opposite side.
33 Lakini Msamaria mmonga, bho asafiri, ap'etili pala pajhele munu ojhu. ambwene asukumibhu ni huruma.
But a Samaritan, traveling that way, came upon the man, and, when he saw him, he was moved with compassion.
34 An'hegeriri ni kun'konga filonda fya muene, akajhitisya mafuta ni divai panani pa muene. Akan'kwesya panani pa mnyama bhwa muene ni kump'eleka mu nyumba jha bhahesya ni kun'hudumila.
He went to him and bound up his wounds, dressing them with oil and wine, and then put him on his own mule, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
35 Ligono lya lyafwatili atolili dinari sibhele, ni kumpela mmiliki ghwa nyumba jha bhahesya ni kun'jobhela, 'N'hudumilayi ni kyokyoha kya ziada kya wibeta kutumila, nibekulepa panibekukerebhuka.'
The next day he took out two silver coins and gave them to the innkeeper. “Take care of him,” he said, “and whatever more you may spend I will myself repay you on my way back.”
36 Jholekhu kati jha abha bhadatu, wifikiri, ajhele jirani kwa muene jha abinili mwa bhanyang'anyi?”
Now which, do you think, of these three men,’ asked Jesus, ‘proved himself a neighbour to the man who fell into the robbers’ hands?’
37 Mwalimu akajobha, “Ni jhola jha alasili huruma kwa muene.” Yesu akan'jobhela, “Lotayi na ukakhetayi mebhu”
‘The one that took pity on him,’ was the answer; at which Jesus said, ‘Go and do the same yourself.’
38 Henu bho bhisafiri, bhajhingili mu kijiji fulani, ni n'dala mmonga lihina lya muene Martha an'karibisi kunyumba jha muene.
As they continued their journey, Jesus came to a village, where a woman named Martha welcomed him to her house.
39 Ajhele ni dada jha akutibhweghe Mariamu, jhaatamili pa magolo gha Bwana ni kup'elekesya lilobhi lya muene.
She had a sister called Mary, who seated herself at the Master’s feet, and listened to his teaching;
40 Lakini Martha akipelili shughuli simehele sya kuandala mlo. Alotili kwa Yesu, ni kujobha, “Bwana, wijalilepi dada jhangu anilekili nihudumilayi ne jhoni? Hivyo basi n'jobhilayi anitangayi.”
but Martha was distracted by the many preparations that she was making. So she went up to Jesus and said, ‘Master, do you approve of my sister’s leaving me to make preparations alone? Tell her to help me.’
41 Lakini Bwana an'jibili ni kun'jobhela, “Martha, wisumbuka juu jha mambo ghamehele,
‘Martha, Martha,’ replied the Master, ‘you are anxious and trouble yourself about many things;
42 lakini ni khenu kimonga tu kya muhimu. Mariamu ahaguili kyakijhele kinofu, ambakyo kibetalepi kubhosibhwa kuhoma kwa muene.”
but only a few are necessary, or rather one. Mary has chosen the good part, and it will not be taken away from her.’
