Luka 24
1 Haba fuma ku makalo e nviki, ci baya kwi bita ku leta mafuta a nunka a baba lukisi.
But on the first day of the week, at dawn, they came to the place where his body had been put, taking the spices which they had got ready.
2 Baba wani ivwe ci lya pindumunwa kwi bita.
And they saw that the stone had been rolled away.
3 Cibe njila mukati, mi kana baba wani citunta ca Jesu.
And they went in, but the body of the Lord Jesus was not there.
4 Ci kwa tendahala bulyo, haba ba kusi lyangene nezo, kapilipili bakwame bobele ciba zimana ha mbali nebo muzizabalo zi benya.
And while they were in doubt about it, they saw two men in shining clothing by them:
5 Banakazi babe zwile ku tiya ciba kubama hansi cha zi fateho zabo, ci ba wamba ku Banakazi “chinzi hamu saka bahala ku ba fwile?
And while their faces were bent down to the earth in fear, these said to them, Why are you looking for the living among the dead?
6 Ka kwina munu, Mi ca buswa, muhupule mwa ba wambili na sina mwa Galilea,
He is not here, he has come back to life: have in mind what he said to you when he was still in Galilee, saying,
7 Chati mwana we Ireeza ka hewe mu mayanza aba tenda zibi ni ku mu kokotela, Imi ke zuba lya butatu ka buke.”
The Son of man will be given up into the hands of evil-doers, and be put to death on the cross, and on the third day he will come back to life.
8 Banakazi ciba hupula manzwi akwe,
And his words came back into their minds,
9 ciba zwa kwi bita ni kuka wamba zintu zonse ku balutwana ni bantu bonse.
And they went away from that place and gave an account of all these things to the eleven disciples and all the others.
10 Linu, Maria Madgalena, Joana, ni Mary nyina wa James ni bamwi Banakazi ciba biha zintu zonse ku ba Apositola.
Now they were Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary, the mother of James: and the other women with them said these things to the Apostles.
11 Imi i impiho ciya bonala kusa zuweka hande kuba Apositola, imi kana bab zumini zi baba wambi Banakazi.
But these words seemed foolish to them, and they had no belief in them.
12 Pitrosi cha zima niku tilila kwi bita, cha zima niku lola mukati, aba boni fela majila fela. Pitrosi aba boli ku Munzi na komoketwe chiba tendahali.
But Peter got up and went to the place where the body had been put, and looking in he saw nothing but the linen cloths, and he went to his house full of wonder at what had taken place.
13 Celyo izuba balutwana bobele baba kuya ku munzi uba ku sumpwa Emmaus, ubena makumi ena i yanza ni kumi lyonke lye stadia kwa Jerusalema.
And then, two of them, on that very day, were going to a little town named Emmaus, which was about seven miles from Jerusalem.
14 ciba ambola ni bamwi cezo zi ba tendahali.
And they were talking together about all those things which had taken place.
15 Kuba tendahali kuti haba ba ku wamba ni kuli buza Jesu cha li bonahaza ku bali.
And while they were talking and questioning together, Jesus himself came near and went with them.
16 Imi menso abo aba ku kangwa ku mwi ziba.
But their eyes were not open that they might have knowledge of him.
17 Jesu aba wambi ku bali, “chinzi inwe mu wamba mu bobele cimu ya buyenda?” Chiba zima ni ku lola ni ba swabite,
And he said to them, What are you talking about together while you go?
18 Zumwi kubali we zina lya Cleopas ca mwi taba, “Kana njewe u muntu wenke mwa Jerusalema ya sezi zintu zi ba tendahali mwa anu mazuba?”
Then stopping, and looking sadly at him, one of them, named Cleopas, said to him, Are you the only man living in Jerusalem who has not had news of the things which have taken place there at this time?
19 Jesu ca wamba ku bali, “zintu zihi”? Ciba mwi taba, Zintu zi amana ni Jesu wa Nazareta, yabali Mupolofita, we misebezi mu manzwi, habusu bwa mulimu ne chisi.
And he said to them, What things? And they said, The things to do with Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet, great in his acts and his words, before God and all the people:
20 Lyahanu ba Prisita ba kulwana ni Bayendisi, mumu baba mubetekeli ni ku mu nyansa kuti a kokotelwe ni kwi haiwa.
And how the chief priests and our rulers gave him up to be put to death on the cross.
21 Imi tuba hupwile kuti njete na lukulule Israele. yee, nihakuba bulyo izi celi izuba lyo butatu kuzwa zonse zintu ha zi tendahala.
But we were hoping that he would be the Saviour of Israel. In addition to all this he has now let three days go by from the time when these things took place;
22 Kono banakazi bamwi be nkopano baba tukomokisi, kaku pakelela kwi bita,
And certain women among us gave us cause for wonder, for they went early to the place where his body had been put,
23 Imi kana baba ka mu wani chitunta, baba boli chi bakati nabo ba ba boni impono ya Mangeloi baba wambi kuti u hala.
And it was not there; then they came saying that they had seen a vision of angels who said that he was living.
24 Bamwi ba Kwame mukati ketu baba yendi kwi bita, ciba kawana muba ba teli Banakazi, kono kana baba ka mu wani.”
And some of those who were with us went to the place, and saw that it was as the women had said, but him they did not see.
25 Jesu aba wambi kubali kuti, Mawe inwe bantu musa zuwisisi bene inkulo zi lyeha ku lemuha ziwambo za ba wambi mupolofita.
And he said, O foolish men! how slow you are to give belief to what the prophets have said.
26 Kana kena kubali kwa butokwa kuti Jesu a nyandiswe ni kwi njila mwi kanya,
Was it not necessary for the Christ to go through these things, and to come into his glory?
27 Kwi ntazi ku zwa kwa Mushe ku ya ku baprofita bonse, Jesu caba tolokela zintu ku amana naye mu mañolo.
And he made clear to them all the things in the Writings, from Moses and from all the prophets, which had to do with himself.
28 Hachi ba ba sutelele ku munzi ku baba kuya, Jesu aba tendi ubu aba kusi zwila habusu,
And they came near the town to which they were going, and he seemed as if he was going on;
29 kono chiba mu cho kuti, “wi kale neswe, imi celi chitengu ni zuba chiliya kuku mina” linu Jesu cha bola mukati kwi kala nabo.
But they kept him back, saying, Do not go, for evening is near, the day is almost gone. And he went in with them.
30 Ku ba tendahali kuti haba kala naye ku lya, cha hinda chinkwa ku chi fuyola ni ku chi komauna cha baha,
And when he was seated with them at table, he took the bread, and said words of blessing and, making division of it, he gave it to them.
31 Linu menso abo aba tondi ni chi ba mwi ziba, Imi cha zwa mu menso abo,
And then their eyes were open, and they had knowledge of him, but he went from their view.
32 Chiba wamba kuzumwi ni zumwi, “kana inkulo kazi bili mukati ketu? Ha wamba kwetu munzila, ha tu wumbwila mañolo.”
And they said to one another, Were not our hearts burning in us while he was talking to us on the way, making clear to us the holy Writings?
33 Chiba zima che nako iyo ni ku yenda kwa Jerusalema, chi ba wana Balutwana bena ikumi ni yenke ni bamwi ba bena nabo,
And that very hour they got up and went back to Jerusalem, where the eleven and the others had come together.
34 chi bati initi Jesu aba buki ni ku libonekisa kwa Simoni,
And they said to them, The Lord has truly come back to life again, and Simon has seen him.
35 chi ba wamba zintu zonse ziba tendahali mwi nzila, ni Jesu mwa ba tondelezwa ni kamo Jesu haba ku komauna chinkwa.
And they gave an account of the things which had taken place on the way, and how, when he gave them bread, they had knowledge of him.
36 Haba ba ku wamba bulyo, Jesu cha zima mukati kabo, cha wamba ku bali chati “Ku sanga kube ne nwe”.
And while they were saying these things, he himself was among them, and said to them, Peace be with you!
37 Kono baba bi ni sabo niku tiya ahulu, ni ku bonala kuti ba bona luhuho lu jolola.
But they were full of fear, being of the opinion that they were seeing a spirit.
38 Jesu aba wambi ku bali, “Chinzi hamu bilela, ni kuba ni puzo mwi nkulo zenu?
And he said to them, Why are you troubled, and why are your hearts full of doubt?
39 Mu bone mu mayanza angu ni matende kuti njeme. Muni wonde niku ni lola, sina luhuho lu jolola halu sena inyama ne zi fuha sina muni kalile me”.
See; my hands and my feet: it is I myself; put your hands on me and make certain; for a spirit has not flesh and bones as you see that I have.
40 Ha wamba bulyo aba ba tondezi mayanza ni matende a kwe.
And when he had said this, he let them see his hands and his feet.
41 Haba ba kwina mu ku sa zumina bakeñisa cha ku sanga bulyo niku komokwa Jesu cha wamba ku bali mwina chimwi chete mulye?
And because, for joy and wonder, they were still in doubt, he said to them, Have you any food here?
42 Chiba muha chiyemba che nswi zi jichitwe,
And they gave him a bit of cooked fish.
43 Jesu cha hinda ni kulya mubusu bwa bo.
And before their eyes he took a meal.
44 Aba wambi ku bali, “kuti hani bena nenwe, ni ba mi wambile kuti zonse ziba ñolwa ka mulawo wa Mushe ni we chiprofita ni manolo a Lisamu e zuzilizwe”.
And he said to them, These are the words which I said to you when I was still with you, how it was necessary for all the things which are in the writings of Moses and the prophets and in the Psalms about me, to be put into effect.
45 Cwale che yalula ingana zabo, kuti ba zuwisise mañolo.
Then he made the holy Writings clear to their minds.
46 Aba wambi kubali kuti, “chiba ñoletwe kuti Jesu u swanela ku nyandiswa ni ku buka ku ba fwile che zuba lyo butatu.
And he said to them, So it is in the Writings that the Christ would undergo death, and come back to life again on the third day;
47 Niku bakila zibi zetu kuti tu swalele, zi swanela kukutazwa mwi zina lyakwe ku zisi zonse, ku matango a Jerusalema.
And that teaching about a change of heart and forgiveness of sins is to be given to Jerusalem first and to all nations in his name.
48 Mumpaki wezi zintu.
You are witnesses of these things.
49 Mubone, nimi tumina zaba sepisi Tayo. Kono mu shale mu Muleneñi konji chi mwa bwikwa ni inguzu zi zwa kwi wulu.”
And now I will send to you what my father has undertaken to give you, but do not go from the town, till the power from heaven comes to you.
50 Cwale Jesu cha ba hitila mane kuka sika ha fwihi ni Bethani. Mi cha zimika mayanza no ku ba fuyaula.
And he took them out till they were near Bethany, and lifting up his hands, he gave them a blessing.
51 Ku ba tendahali kuti haba kuba fuyola aba siyi ni ku hindwa kwi wulu.
And while he was doing so, he went from them and was taken up into heaven.
52 Linu chiba mu lapelela kaku sanga ni ku bola kwa Jerusalema ke cha ku sanga.
And they gave him worship and went back to Jerusalem with great joy.
53 Chiba zwila ha busu mwi inkeleke ku temba Ireeza.
And they were in the Temple at all times, giving praise to God.
