< Luka 10 >

1 Sima na yango, Nkolo aponaki bayekoli tuku sambo na mibale mpe atindaki bango, mibale-mibale liboso na Ye, na bingumba nyonso mpe na bisika nyonso oyo Ye moko asengelaki kokende.
Then, after these things, the Lord also designated another seventy-two. And he sent them in pairs before his face, into every city and place where he was to arrive.
2 Alobaki na bango: — Bambuma ya kobuka etondi meke kati na elanga, kasi basali bazali moke. Boye bosenga na Nkolo elanga ete atinda basali kati na elanga na Ye.
And he said to them: “Certainly the harvest is great, but the workers are few. Therefore, ask the Lord of the harvest to send workers into his harvest.
3 Bokende! Nazali kotinda bino lokola bampate kati na bambwa ya zamba.
Go forth. Behold, I send you out like lambs among wolves.
4 Bomema mbongo te, sakosi te to basandale te, mpe bopesa moto moko te mbote na nzela.
Do not choose to carry a purse, nor provisions, nor shoes; and you shall greet no one along the way.
5 Na ndako nyonso oyo bokokota, boloba liboso: « Tika ete kimia ezala na ndako oyo! »
Into whatever house you will have entered, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’
6 Soki ezali na moto ya kimia kati na ndako yango, kimia na bino ekovanda likolo na ye; soki te, kimia yango ekozongela bino.
And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest upon him. But if not, it will return to you.
7 Bovanda kuna, bolia mpe bomela nyonso oyo bakopesa bino; pamba te mosali asengeli kozwa lifuti na mosala na ye. Botambola-tambola na bandako nyonso te.
And remain in the same house, eating and drinking the things that are with them. For the worker is worthy of his pay. Do not choose to pass from house to house.
8 Tango bokokota na engumba songolo, soki bayambi bino, bolia bilei oyo bakopesa bino,
And into whatever city you have entered and they have received you, eat what they set before you.
9 bobikisa babeli oyo bazali kuna mpe boloba na bango: « Bokonzi ya Nzambe ekomi pene na bino. »
And cure the sick who are in that place, and proclaim to them, ‘The kingdom of God has drawn near to you.’
10 Kasi tango bokokota na engumba songolo, soki baboyi koyamba bino, bokende na babalabala na yango mpe boloba:
But into whatever city you have entered and they have not received you, going out into its main streets, say:
11 « Ezala putulu ya engumba na bino, topupoli yango wuta na makolo na biso, mpo na kokebisa bino. Nzokande, boyeba malamu ete Bokonzi ya Nzambe ekomi pene. »
‘Even the dust which clings to us from your city, we wipe away against you. Yet know this: the kingdom of God has drawn near.’
12 Nazali koloba na bino penza ya solo: Na mokolo wana, etumbu na yango ekozala makasi koleka etumbu ya Sodome.
I say to you, that in that day, Sodom will be forgiven more than that city will be.
13 Mawa na yo, Korazini! Mawa na yo, Betisaida! Pamba te soki bikamwa oyo esalemaki kati na bino esalemaki kati na bingumba Tiri mpe Sidoni, mbele wuta kala, bavandi na yango babongola mitema, balata basaki mpe bamipakola putulu.
Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles that have been wrought in you, had been wrought in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in haircloth and ashes.
14 Kasi, na kosambisama, etumbu na bino ekozala makasi koleka etumbu ya Tiri mpe Sidoni.
Yet truly, Tyre and Sidon will be forgiven more in the judgment than you will be.
15 Mpe yo, Kapernawumi, okanisi ete okotombolama kino na Likolo? Te, okokitisama kino na mboka ya bakufi! (Hadēs g86)
And as for you, Capernaum, who would be exalted even up to Heaven: you shall be submerged into Hell. (Hadēs g86)
16 Moto oyo atosi bino atosi nde Ngai, moto oyo aboyi bino aboyi nde Ngai, nzokande moto oyo aboyi Ngai aboyi nde Motindi na Ngai.
Whoever hears you, hears me. And whoever despises you, despises me. And whoever despises me, despises him who sent me.”
17 Tango bayekoli yango tuku sambo na mibale bazongaki, batondaki na esengo mpe balobaki: — Nkolo, ezala milimo mabe etosi biso na Kombo na Yo!
Then the seventy-two returned with gladness, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us, in your name.”
18 Yesu azongisaki: — Namonaki Satana kokweya longwa na likolo, lokola mikalikali.
And he said to them: “I was watching as Satan fell like lightning from heaven.
19 Napesi bino bokonzi ya konyata banyoka mpe bakoto, mpe ya kolonga nguya nyonso ya monguna, mpe eloko moko te ekosala bino mabe.
Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and upon all the powers of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you.
20 Nzokande, bosepela te komona ete milimo mabe ezali kotosa bino; bosepela nde ete bakombo na bino ekomami kati na Likolo.
Yet truly, do not choose to rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”
21 Kaka na tango yango, awa Molimo Mosantu atondisaki Ye na esengo, Yesu alobaki: — Oh Tata, Nkolo ya Likolo mpe ya mabele, nakumisi Yo! Pamba te obombaki makambo oyo, mpo ete bato ya bwanya mpe bato ya mayele bayeba yango te, kasi olakisi yango na bana mike. Iyo, Tata, pamba te yango nde osepelaki kosala.
In the same hour, he exulted in the Holy Spirit, and he said: “I confess to you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and the prudent, and have revealed them to little ones. It is so, Father, because this way was pleasing before you.
22 Tata na Ngai apesa Ngai biloko nyonso. Moko te ayebi soki Mwana azali nani, longola kaka Tata; mpe moko te ayebi soki Tata azali nani, longola kaka Mwana mpe ye oyo epai ya nani Mwana asepeli kotalisa Tata.
All things have been delivered to me by my Father. And no one knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and those to whom the Son has chosen to reveal him.”
23 Bongo, abalolaki miso na Ye epai ya bayekoli na Ye mpe alobaki na bango moko kaka: — Esengo na bato oyo bazali komona makambo oyo bozali komona!
And turning to his disciples, he said: “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see.
24 Pamba te, nazali koloba na bino: basakoli mpe bakonzi ebele batondaki na posa ya komona makambo oyo bino bozali komona, kasi bamonaki yango te; batondaki na posa ya koyoka makambo oyo bino bozali koyoka, kasi bayokaki yango te.
For I say to you, that many prophets and kings wanted to see the things that you see, and they did not see them, and to hear the things that you hear, and they did not hear them.”
25 Molakisi moko ya Mobeko atelemaki mpe atunaki mpo na komeka Yesu: — Moteyi, nasengeli kosala nini mpo ete nazwa bomoi ya seko? (aiōnios g166)
And behold, a certain expert in the law rose up, testing him and saying, “Teacher, what must I do to possess eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
26 Yesu alobaki na ye: — Makambo nini ekomama kati na mobeko? Otangaka yango ndenge nini?
But he said to him: “What is written in the law? How do you read it?”
27 Molakisi ya mibeko azongisaki: — Linga Nkolo, Nzambe na yo, na motema na yo mobimba, na molimo na yo mobimba, na makasi na yo nyonso mpe na makanisi na yo nyonso; mpe linga moninga na yo ndenge yo moko omilingaka.
In response, he said: “You shall love the Lord your God from your whole heart, and from your whole soul, and from all your strength, and from all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.”
28 Yesu alobaki na ye: — Opesi eyano ya malamu; sala bongo mpe okozala na bomoi.
And he said to him: “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.”
29 Kasi molakisi ya Mobeko alingaki kolakisa ete azali sembo, boye atunaki na Yesu: — Nani azali moninga na ngai?
But since he wanted to justify himself, he said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”
30 Yesu azongisaki: — Moto moko azalaki kokende na Jeriko, wana awutaki na Yelusalemi. Na nzela, miyibi babetaki ye, babotolaki ye bilamba na ye, babetaki ye mpe bakendeki na bango, batikaki ye pene ya kokufa.
Then Jesus, taking this up, said: “A certain man descended from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he happened upon robbers, who now also plundered him. And inflicting him with wounds, they went away, leaving him behind, half-alive.
31 Nzokande, na tango yango kaka, esalemaki ete Nganga-Nzambe moko akende mpe azwa nzela yango kaka; tango kaka amonaki moto yango, akatisaki na ngambo mosusu ya nzela mpe akobaki mobembo na ye.
And it happened that a certain priest was descending along the same way. And seeing him, he passed by.
32 Ndenge moko mpe Molevi moko akomaki na esika yango; tango kaka amonaki moto yango, akatisaki na ngambo mosusu ya nzela mpe akobaki mobembo na ye.
And similarly a Levite, when he was near the place, also saw him, and he passed by.
33 Kasi moto moko ya Samari, wana azalaki kokende mobembo, akomaki na esika oyo moto yango azalaki; tango kaka amonaki ye, ayokelaki ye mawa,
But a certain Samaritan, being on a journey, came near him. And seeing him, he was moved by mercy.
34 apusanaki pene na ye, asopelaki bapota na ye mafuta mpe vino, mpe akangaki yango. Bongo amatisaki moto yango na likolo ya mile na ye moko, amemaki ye na ndako ya bapaya, mpe akobaki kosunga ye kuna.
And approaching him, he bound up his wounds, pouring oil and wine on them. And setting him on his pack animal, he brought him to an inn, and he took care of him.
35 Mokolo oyo elandaki, abimisaki mbongo ya bibende mibale mpe apesaki yango na nkolo ndako ya bapaya; alobaki na ye: « Salisa moto oyo malamu; tango nakozonga, nakozongisela yo mbongo nyonso oyo okobakisa! »
And the next day, he took out two denarii, and he gave them to the proprietor, and he said: ‘Take care of him. And whatever extra you will have spent, I will repay to you at my return.’
36 Yesu atunaki: — Mpo na yo, nani kati na bango misato azalaki moninga ya moto oyo akweyaki na maboko ya miyibi?
Which of these three, does it seem to you, was a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?”
37 Molakisi ya mibeko azongisaki: — Ezali moto oyo ayokelaki ye mawa. Yesu alobaki na ye: — Kende mpe sala bongo!
Then he said, “The one who acted with mercy toward him.” And Jesus said to him, “Go, and act similarly.”
38 Wana Yesu mpe bayekoli na Ye bazalaki kokende, Yesu akotaki na mboka moko, mpe mwasi moko oyo kombo na ye ezali Marte ayambaki Ye kati na ndako na ye.
Now it happened that, while they were traveling, he entered into a certain town. And a certain woman, named Martha, received him into her home.
39 Mari, ndeko mwasi ya Marte, ayaki kovanda na makolo ya Nkolo, mpe azalaki koyoka makambo oyo Nkolo azalaki koloba.
And she had a sister, named Mary, who, while sitting beside the Lord’s feet, was listening to his word.
40 Kasi, na tango yango, Marte amipesaki na misala nyonso ya ndako; ayaki na lombangu mpe alobaki: — Ah Nkolo, ozali komona te ete ndeko na ngai atiki ngai kosala ngai moko misala? Loba na ye ete asunga ngai!
Now Martha was continually busying herself with serving. And she stood still and said: “Lord, is it not a concern to you that my sister has left me to serve alone? Therefore, speak to her, so that she may help me.”
41 Nkolo azongiselaki ye: — Marte, Marte, ozali komitungisa mpe kominyokola mpo na makambo ebele,
And the Lord responded by saying to her: “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled over many things.
42 kasi likambo moko kaka ezali na tina. Mari aponi oyo eleki malamu, mpe moto ata moko te akobotola ye yango.
And yet only one thing is necessary. Mary has chosen the best portion, and it shall not be taken away from her.”
