Luka 11
1 Jhatokili wakati Yesu is'oka mahali fulani, mmonga ghwa bhanafunzi bha muene akan'jobhela, “Bwana, tumanyisiajhi tete kus'oka kama Yohana kya abhafundisi bhanafunzi bha muene'.
When he finished praying in a certain place, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as Yochanan also taught his disciples.”
2 Yesu akabhajobhela, Pamwisali, mjobhayi, 'Dadi, lihina lya jhobhi litakasibhwayi. Ufalme bhwa bhebhe uhidayi.
He said to them, “When you pray, say, ‘Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. May your Kingdom come. May your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.
3 Utupelayi n'kate ghwitu ghwa kila ligono.
Give us day by day our daily bread.
4 Utusamehajhi makosa gha jhotu, kama tete kyatukabhasamehe bhoha bhabhatukosili. Usitulongosi mu majaribu.”
Forgive us our sins, for we ourselves also forgive everyone who is indebted to us. Bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.’”
5 Yesu akabhajobhela, “Niani kwa muenga ibeta kujha rafiki ambajhe ibeta kundotela pakilu, ni kun'jobhela, Rafiki nijhasimayi mikate midatu.
He said to them, “Which of you, if you go to a friend at midnight and tell him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,
6 Kwandabha rafiki jhangu anihidili hanu naha kuhoma mu safuari nani nidulili kya kunjandalila.
for a friend of mine has come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him,’
7 Ni jhola jhaajhe mugati akajibu, usinitaabisi, ndiangu undendibhu, ni bhanabhangu, pamonga ni nene tumalili kugona pa kitanda. Nibhwesya lepi kujhumuka ni kupela bhebhe mikate.
and he from within will answer and say, ‘Don’t bother me. The door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I can’t get up and give it to you’?
8 Nikabhajobhela, japokuwa ijhumuka lepi ni kupela mikate kama rafiki jhake, kwa kujhendelela kun'gongela bila soni, ibeta kujhumuka nikupela fipandi fingi fya mikate kulengana ni mahitaji gha jhobhi.
I tell you, although he will not rise and give it to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence, he will get up and give him as many as he needs.
9 Nani kabhele nikabhajobhela, Mus'okayi, namu mwipelibhwa; mulondayi namu nwikabha, mupigayi hodi namu mwifungulibhwa.
“I tell you, keep asking, and it will be given you. Keep seeking, and you will find. Keep knocking, and it will be opened to you.
10 Kwa kujha khila munu jhais'oka ibeta kupokela na khila munu jhailonda ikabha, ni khila munu jhaipga hodi ibetakufungulibhwa.
For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
11 Dadi jholekhu miongoni mwa muenga, mwanamunu akan'sokayi somba akampela liyoka?
“Which of you fathers, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, he won’t give him a snake instead of a fish, will he?
12 Au akas'omayi lifombi akampela kip'el'el'e?
Or if he asks for an egg, he won’t give him a scorpion, will he?
13 Kwa hiyo, ikajhiajhi mwe bhaovu mumanyili kubhap'ela bhana bhinu zawadi sinofu, je nesu lepi sana Dadi jhinu ghwa kumbinguni kwamba ibeta kubhap'ela Roho mtakatifu abhu bhabhakarisoka?”
If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?”
14 Baadaye, Yesu akajha ikemela pepo, ni munu mwenye pepo ajhele bubu. Bho pepo limbokili, munu ojhu abhwesi kulongela. Umati bhwastaajabili nesu.
He was casting out a demon, and it was mute. When the demon had gone out, the mute man spoke; and the multitudes marvelled.
15 Lakini bhanu bhangi bhakajobha, ojho ibhosya mapepo kwa Beelzebul, mbaha ghwa mapepo
But some of them said, “He casts out demons by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons.”
16 Bhangi bhan'jaribili kwa kundonda abhalasiajhi ishara kuhomela kumbinguni.
Others, testing him, sought from him a sign from heaven.
17 Lakini Yesu aghatambuili mawazo gha bhene nikubhajobhela, “Khila ufalme bhwa wibeta kugawanyika ibeta kujha ukebha, ni nyumba jhajhigawanyiki jhibeta kubina.
But he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation. A house divided against itself falls.
18 Kama shetani ibeta kujha agawanyiki, ufalme bhwa muene bhwibeta kujhema bhuli? kwandabha mwijibha nibhosya mapepo kwa Belzebuli
If Satan also is divided against himself, how will his kingdom stand? For you say that I cast out demons by Beelzebul.
19 Kama nene nibhosya mapepo kwa Belzebuli, je bhajhinu bhibhosya mapepo kwa njela jheleku? kwandabha ejhe bhene bhibeta kubhahukumu muenga.
But if I cast out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.
20 Lakini, kama nibhosya mapepo kwa kikhonji kya K'yara basi ufalme bhwa K'yara ubhahidili.
But if I by God’s finger cast out demons, then God’s Kingdom has come to you.
21 Munu mwenye nghofu ajhe ni silaha ilenda kunyumba jha jhobhi fenu fya muene fibetakujha salama.
“When the strong man, fully armed, guards his own dwelling, his goods are safe.
22 Lakini akavamibhwayi ni munu mwenye nghofu zaidi, munu jhola mwenye nghofu ibeta kunyaka silaha sya muene, ni kulola mali sya muene syoha.
But when someone stronger attacks him and overcomes him, he takes from him his whole armour in which he trusted, and divides his plunder.
23 Muene jhajhelepi pamonga ni nene ajhe kinyume ni nene, ni muene jhaibeta kubhonganiya pamonga nani nitabhwanya.
“He who is not with me is against me. He who doesn’t gather with me scatters.
24 Pepo n'chafu pa ikamboka munu, ilota kulonda ni mahali pa padulili ni mesi ili ap'omosekajhi. Paibetakudula, ajobha nikerebhuka kwa nihomili.
The unclean spirit, when he has gone out of the man, passes through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he says, ‘I will turn back to my house from which I came out.’
25 Akakerebhukajhi ni kukolela nyumba jhifyaghilibhu na jhitamili kinofu.
When he returns, he finds it swept and put in order.
26 Hivyo ilota ni kulonda mapepo saba ghaghajhele maovu kuliko muene ni kubhaleta bhahidayi bhatamayi mahali pala. Ni hali jha munu ojhu jhijha mbaya kuliko kyajhikajhela mara jha kuanza.”
Then he goes and takes seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter in and dwell there. The last state of that man becomes worse than the first.”
27 Jhatokili kwamba bhoijobha malobhi aghu, n'dala fulani akakuesya sauti zaidi jha bhoha pa mkutano bhwa bhanu ni kujobha” Libarikibhu lileme lya likuhoguili ni mabhele ghauyong'ili”
It came to pass, as he said these things, a certain woman out of the multitude lifted up her voice and said to him, “Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breasts which nursed you!”
28 Lakini muene akajobha, bhabarikibhu bhala bhabhi p'elekesya lilobhi lya K'yara ni kulitunza.
But he said, “On the contrary, blessed are those who hear the word of God, and keep it.”
29 Wakati umati bhwa bhanu bhikibhonganiya ni kujhongeseka, Yesu akajhanda kujobha “Kizazi ekhe ndo kizazi kya uovu. Kilonda ishara, na ijhelepi ishara jhebhibeta kupelibhwa zaidi jha Yona.
When the multitudes were gathering together to him, he began to say, “This is an evil generation. It seeks after a sign. No sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah the prophet.
30 Maana kama Yona kyaajhele ishara kwa bhanu bha Ninawi, ndo mwana ghwa Adamu kya ibekujha ishara kwa kizazi ekhe.
For even as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so the Son of Man will also be to this generation.
31 Malkia ghwa kusini ibeta kujhema ligono lya hukumu ni bhanu bha kizazi ekhe ni kubhahukumu bhene, kwani muene ahomili kumwishu mwa nchi ili ahidayi kup'elekesya hekima sya Solomoni, ni apa ajhe mbaha kuliko Solomoni.
The Queen of the South will rise up in the judgement with the men of this generation and will condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, one greater than Solomon is here.
32 Bhanu bha Ninawi bhibeta kujhema mu hukumu pamonga ni bhanu bha kizazi ekhe ligono lya hukumu bhibeta kukihukumu, kwani bhene bhatubuili kwa mahubiri gha Yona, na langayi, apa ajhe mbaha kuliko Yona.
The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgement with this generation, and will condemn it, for they repented at the proclaiming of Jonah; and behold, one greater than Jonah is here.
33 Ajhelepi munu jhejhioha, jhaibhwesya taa ni kujhibheka sehemu jha pasi jhaijhe ni ngisi jhajhibhoneka lepi au pasi pa likapu, ila ibhwasya ni kubheka panani pa khenu ili khila munu jhaijhingila abhwesyayi kulola muenga.
“No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on a stand, that those who come in may see the light.
34 Lehu lya bhebhe ndo taa jha mb'ele. Lihu lya bhebhe likajhelayi linofu basi mb'ele bhwa bhebhe wibetakujha mu muenga. Lakini lihu lya bhebhe likajhelayi libaya basi mb'ele bhwa bhebhe bhuoha wibeta kujha mu ngisi.
The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore when your eye is good, your whole body is also full of light; but when it is evil, your body also is full of darkness.
35 Kwa hivyo, mkihadhariajhi ili mwanga, bhwabhujhele mugati mwa jhomu usisopibhu ngisi.
Therefore see whether the light that is in you isn’t darkness.
36 Efyo basi, kama mb'ele ghwa jhobhi bhuoha bhujhe mu mwanga, na ajhelepi sehemu jha jhijhele mu ngisi, basi mbele bhwa bhebhe wibetakujha sawa ni taa jha jhiyaka ni kupisya mwanga kwa muenga.”
If therefore your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, it will be wholly full of light, as when the lamp with its bright shining gives you light.”
37 Bhoamali kulongela, Farisayo amwaliki akaliajhi kyakulya kunyumba jha muene, ni muene Yesu akajhingila mugati ni kujha pamonga nabhu.
Now as he spoke, a certain Pharisee asked him to dine with him. He went in and sat at the table.
38 Ni Mafarisayo bhasyangele jinsi kya abelikusamba hoti kabla jha kyakulya kya kimihi.
When the Pharisee saw it, he marvelled that he had not first washed himself before dinner.
39 Lakini Bwana akabhajobhela, “Muenga Mafarisayo mwisuka kwibhala kukikombi ni bakuli, lakini mugati mwa muenga mumemili tamaa ni uovu.
The Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter, but your inward part is full of extortion and wickedness.
40 Muenga bhanu bhamuduli ufahamu, Je muene jha abhombili kwibhala abhombilepi ni mugati kabhele?
You foolish ones, didn’t he who made the outside make the inside also?
41 Mubhapelayi maskini ghaghajhele mugati, ni mambo ghoha ghibeta kujha manofu kwa muenga.
But give for gifts to the needy those things which are within, and behold, all things will be clean to you.
42 Lakini ole bhinu Mafarisayo, kwani mwipisya zaka sya mnanaa ni nchi cha ni khila aina jha mbogha jha bustani. Lakini mughalekili mambo gha haki ni kun'gana K'yara. Ndo muhimu zaidi kubhomba gha haki ni kun'gana K'yara, bila kuleka kubhomba ni agha ghangi kabhele.
But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and every herb, but you bypass justice and God’s love. You ought to have done these, and not to have left the other undone.
43 Ole bhinu Mafarisayo, kwa kujha mwigana kutama pa fiti fya palongolo mu masinagogi ni kuamkibhwa ni salamu sya heshima mu soko.
Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the best seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.
44 Ole bhinu kwani mwiwaningana ni makaburi ghaghadulili alama ambajho bhanu bhigenda panani pa bhene bila kumanya.”
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like hidden graves, and the men who walk over them don’t know it.”
45 Mwalimu mmonga ghwa sheria sya kiyahudi akan'jibu ni kujobha, “Mwalimu, kyawijobha kikatuudhi kabhele tete.”
One of the Torah scholars answered him, “Rabbi, in saying this you insult us also.”
46 Yesu akajobha, “Ole bhinu, bhalimu bha sheria! kwani mukabhapela bhanu misighu mibhabha ghyabhibhwesyalepi kughip'enda, walakini muenga mwigusya lepi misighu ejhu hata kwa jhimonga ghya kikhonji kya jhomu.
He said, “Woe to you Torah scholars also! For you load men with burdens that are difficult to carry, and you yourselves won’t even lift one finger to help carry those burdens.
47 Ole bhinu, kwandabha mwijenga ni kubheka kumbukumbu mu makaburi gha manabii ambabho bhakomibhu ni bhakhokhobhinu.
Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
48 Hivyo muenga mwishuhudila ni kukubaliana ni mbombo syabhabhombili bhakhokhobhinu kwandabha hakika bhabhakhomili manabii ambabho mwijenga kumbukumbu mu makaburi gha bhene.
So you testify and consent to the works of your fathers. For they killed them, and you build their tombs.
49 Kwandabha ejhu kabhele, hekima jha K'yara jhifobha, 'Nibeta kubhatumila manabii ni mitume na bhene bhibeta kubhatesya ni kubhakoma baadhi jha bhene.
Therefore also the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send to them prophets and emissaries; and some of them they will kill and persecute,
50 Kizazi ekhe kibeta kuwajibika kwa damu jha manabii bhabhakhomibhu kuhomela kwa dunia,
that the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation,
51 Kuhoma damu jha Abeli hadi damu jha Zakaria, jhaakhomibhu pagati pa madhabahu ni patakatifu. Ena, nikabhajobhela muenga, kizazi ekhe kibeta kuwajibika.
from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary.’ Yes, I tell you, it will be required of this generation.
52 Ole bhinu bhalimu bha sheria sya kiyahudi, kwandabha mtolili fungulusya bhufahamu mwebhene mwijhingila lepi ni bhala bhabhilonda kujhingila mkabhabesya.”
Woe to you Torah scholars! For you took away the key of knowledge. You didn’t enter in yourselves, and those who were entering in, you hindered.”
53 Baada jha Yesu kubhoka pala, bhaandishi ni Mafarisayo bhampingili ni kubishana ni muene juu jha mambo ghamehele.
As he said these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to be terribly angry, and to draw many things out of him,
54 Bhakajaribu kun'kamula kwa malobhi gha muene.
lying in wait for him, and seeking to catch him in something he might say, that they might accuse him.
