Lukka 8
1 Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo Yesu n’agenda ng’akyalira ebibuga ebinene n’ebitono ng’abuulira Enjiri y’obwakabaka bwa Katonda, n’abayigirizwa be ekkumi n’ababiri nga bali naye.
Kwasekusithi emva kwalokho, yena wadabula imizi lemizana, ememezela lokutshumayela indaba ezinhle zombuso kaNkulunkulu; labalitshumi lambili babelaye,
2 Waaliwo n’abakazi Yesu be yali agobyeko emyoyo emibi ne be yali awonyezza endwadde. Mu bo mwe mwali ne Maliyamu eyayitibwanga Magudaleene gwe yagobako baddayimooni omusanvu,
labesifazana abathile ababesiliswe kubomoya ababi lemikhuhlaneni, uMariya othiwa nguMagadalena, okwaphuma kuye amadimoni ayisikhombisa,
3 ne Jowaana muka Kuza eyali omukulu w’olubiri lwa Kerode; ne Susaana, n’abalala bangi, abaatoolanga ku byabwe ne balabirira Yesu n’abayigirizwa be.
loJowana umkaKuza induna kaHerodi, loSusana, labanye abanengi, ababemsiza ngempahla zabo.
4 Awo ekibiina kinene bwe kyali kikuŋŋaana, nga n’abantu abava mu buli kibuga bajja eri Yesu, Yesu n’abagerera olugero luno nti,
Kwathi sekubuthene ixuku elikhulu, njalo bevela emizini ngemizi besiza kuye, wakhuluma ngomfanekiso,
5 “Omulimi yagenda mu nnimiro ye okusiga ensigo. Bwe yatandika okusiga ensigo, ezimu ne zigwa ku mabbali g’ekkubo ne bazirinnyirira, n’ebinyonyi eby’omu bbanga ne bizirya.
wathi: Umhlanyeli waphuma ukuyahlanyela inhlanyelo yakhe; kwathi ekuhlanyeleni kwakhe, enye yawela eceleni kwendlela; yasinyathelwa ngenyawo, lenyoni zezulu zayidla zayiqeda.
6 Ensigo endala zaagwa ku lwazi, bwe zaamera ne zikala kubanga tezaalina mazzi.
Lenye yawela edwaleni, kwathi ekukhuleni yabuna, ngoba yaswela ubumanzi.
7 Ensigo endala zaagwa mu maggwa, bwe zaamera n’amaggwa nago ne gakula ne gazizisa.
Lenye yawela phakathi kwameva, ameva asemila layo ayiminyanisa.
8 Naye ensigo endala n’azisiga mu ttaka eddungi, ne zikula ne zibala ebibala emirundi kikumi.” N’amaliriza ng’agamba nti, “Alina amatu okuwulira awulire.”
Lenye yawela emhlabathini omuhle, yakhula yathela ikhulu. Esetshilo lezizinto wamemeza wathi: Olendlebe zokuzwa akezwe.
9 Abayigirizwa be ne bamubuuza amakulu g’olugero olwo.
Abafundi bakhe basebembuza besithi: Ungaba yini lumfanekiso?
10 N’abaddamu nti, “Mmwe muweereddwa omukisa okumanya ebyama by’obwakabaka bwa Katonda, naye abalala, njogera gye bali mu ngero, “‘bwe batunula baleme kulaba, bwe bawulira baleme kutegeera.’
Wasesithi: Kuphiwe kini ukwazi imfihlo zombuso kaNkulunkulu; kodwa kwabanye ngemifanekiso, ukuze bebona bangaboni, njalo besizwa bangaqedisisi.
11 “Kale, amakulu g’olugero olwo ge gano: Ensigo ky’ekigambo kya Katonda.
Lomfanekiso uyilokhu: Inhlanyelo iyilizwi likaNkulunkulu.
12 Ensigo ezaagwa ku mabbali g’ekkubo, be bawulira ekigambo, naye Setaani n’ajja n’akibaggyako mu mutima gwabwe, si kulwa nga bakkiriza ne balokolebwa.
Labaseceleni kwendlela yilabo abathi sebezwile, besekufika udiyabhola alisuse ilizwi enhliziyweni zabo, ukuze bangakholwa basindiswe.
13 Ezaagwa ku lwazi be bawulira ne basanyukira ekigambo, kyokka ne kitaba na mmizi. Be bakkiriza, naye okugezesebwa bwe kujja ne bagwa.
Labasedwaleni yilabo, abathi belizwile, balemukele ilizwi ngentokozo, kodwa laba kabalampande, abakholwa okwesikhathi, kuthi ngesikhathi sokulingwa bawe.
14 Ezaagwa mu maggwa, be bawulira ekigambo, naye okweraliikirira n’obugagga n’amasanyu g’omu bulamu ne bibazisa, ne bataleeta bibala bikuze bulungi.
Lewele phakathi kwameva, yilabo abathi sebezwile, bahambe baminyaniswe yikukhathalela lenotho lenkanuko yempilo, njalo bangatheli izithelo ezivuthiweyo.
15 Naye ezaagwa ku ttaka eddungi be bantu abalungi era abeesigwa, era bakuuma ekigambo ku mitima ne babala ebibala n’obugumiikiriza.
Kodwa esemhlabathini omuhle, yilabo abathi belizwile ilizwi balilondoloze enhliziyweni enhle lelungileyo, bathela izithelo ngokubekezela.
16 “Tewali muntu akoleeza ttaala ate nagisaanikirako akalobo oba n’agissa wansi w’ekitanda. Agiwanika waggulu ku kikondo, olwo lw’esobola okumulisiza abantu abayingira.
Njalo kakho othi eselumathise isibane, asembese ngesitsha, kumbe asibeke ngaphansi kombheda, kodwa usibeka esiqobaneni sesibane, ukuze abangenayo babone ukukhanya.
17 Kubanga tewali kintu na kimu ekyakwekebwa ekitalikwekulwa, era tewali na kimu ekitalimanyibwa mu lwatu.
Ngoba kakukho okufihliweyo, okungasoze kube sobala; lokuthukuziweyo, okungayikwaziwa lokungayikulethwa obala.
18 Noolwekyo mwegendereze nga muwuliriza, kubanga oyo alina alyongerwako; naye oyo atalina, n’ekyo ky’alowooza nti alina kigenda kumuggyibwako.”
Ngakho qaphelisani ukuthi lizwa njani; ngoba loba ngubani olakho, uzaphiwa; kodwa loba ngubani ongelakho, uzakwemukwa lalokho acabanga ukuthi ulakho.
19 Awo nnyina ne baganda ba Yesu ne bajja okumulaba, naye ne batasobola kumutuukako olw’ekibiina ky’abantu ekinene.
Kwasekufika kuye unina labafowabo, kodwa abazange bamfinyelele ngenxa yexuku.
20 Ne wabaawo amubuulira nti, “Nnyoko ne baganda bo obwedda bayimiridde wabweru, baagala kukulabako.”
Wasebikelwa ngabanye abathi: Unyoko labafowenu bemi phandle, bafuna ukukubona.
21 Yesu n’addamu nti, “Mmange ne baganda bange be bano abawulira ekigambo kya Katonda ne bakigondera.”
Kodwa waphendula wathi kubo: Umama labafowethu yilabo, abalizwayo ilizwi likaNkulunkulu balenze.
22 Lwali lumu Yesu n’alinnya mu lyato n’abayigirizwa be, n’abagamba nti, “Tuwunguke tulage emitala w’ennyanja.” Ne basimbula okugenda.
Kwasekusithi ngolunye lwezinsuku, wangena emkhunjini yena labafundi bakhe, wasesithi kubo: Asichaphele ngaphetsheya kwechibi; basuka-ke.
23 Bwe baali baseeyeeya Yesu ne yeebaka. Awo omuyaga ogw’amaanyi ne gukunta ku nnyanja, n’eryato ne liyuuga nnyo, ne baba mu kabi kanene.
Kwathi behamba ngomkhumbi, walala ubuthongo; isiphepho esikhulu somoya sasesisehlela phansi echibini, bagcwalelwa ngamanzi, babesengozini.
24 Abayigirizwa ne bamuzuukusa, ne bagamba nti, “Mukama waffe, Mukama waffe, tusaanawo!” N’azuukuka n’aboggolera omuyaga n’amazzi agaali geefuukudde. Ne bikkakkana, ennyanja n’etteeka!
Basebesondela bamvusa, besithi: Nkosi, nkosi, siyabhubha! Wasevuka wakhuza umoya lamagagasi amakhulu amanzi; kwasekusima, kwasekusiba lokuthula.
25 N’alyoka abagamba nti, “Okukkiriza kwammwe kuluwa?” Ne batya, ne beewuunya nnyo, ne bagambagana nti, “Omuntu ono ye ani? Alagira omuyaga n’amazzi ne bimugondera!”
Wasesithi kubo: Lungaphi ukholo lwenu? Basebesesaba bamangala, bakhulumisana besithi: Kambe ungubani lo, ukuthi alaye ngitsho imimoya lamanzi, njalo kumlalele?
26 Awo ne bagoba emitala w’eri mu nsi y’Abageresene eyolekedde Ggaliraaya.
Basebesiya ngomkhumbi elizweni lamaGadarene, eliqondene leGalili.
27 Awo Yesu bwe yava mu lyato omusajja eyaliko baddayimooni n’ajja okumusisinkana ng’ava mu kibuga. Omusajja oyo yali amaze ebbanga ddene nga tayambala ngoye, nga tasula na mu nju, wabula ng’asula mu ntaana.
Kwathi esephumele emhlabathini, yamhlangabeza indoda ethile ivela emzini, eyayilamadimoni okwesikhathi eside, njalo ingembathi isembatho, ingahlali endlini, kodwa emangcwabeni.
28 Awo bwe yalaba Yesu n’awowoggana n’agwa wansi mu maaso ga Yesu, n’aleekaana nti, “Onjagaza ki, Yesu, Omwana wa Katonda Ali Waggulu Ennyo? Nkwegayiridde tombonyaabonya!”
Yathi imbona uJesu, yamemeza, yawa phansi phambi kwakhe, yathi ngelizwi elikhulu: Ngilani lawe, Jesu, Ndodana kaNkulunkulu oPhezukonke? Ngiyakuncenga, ungangihluphi.
29 Kubanga Yesu yali alagidde omwoyo omubi guve ku musajja oyo. Emirundi mingi yalumbibwanga n’amaanyi mangi, ne bwe baamusibanga n’enjegere, n’akuumibwa mu masamba, yabikutulanga, ddayimooni n’amulaza mu ddungu.
Ngoba walaya umoya ongcolileyo ukuthi aphume kulowomuntu; ngoba wayesembambe okwezikhathi ezinengi, walindwa ebotshiwe ngamaketane lezibopho, kodwa eseqamule izibopho waqhutshelwa enkangala lidimoni.
30 Awo Yesu n’abuuza omusajja nti, “Erinnya lyo ggwe ani?” Omusajja n’addamu nti, “Nze Ligyoni,” kubanga omusajja yaliko baddayimooni bangi.
UJesu wasembuza, wathi: Ungubani ibizo lakho? Wasesithi: NguLegiyoni; ngoba amadimoni amanengi ayengene kuye.
Asemncenga ukuthi angawalayi ukuya emgodini ongelamkhawulo. (Abyssos g12)
32 Waaliwo eggana ly’embizzi, awo ku lusozi, nga lirya, baddayimooni ne beegayirira Yesu abasindike mu mbizzi ezo. Yesu n’abakkiriza.
Kwakukhona lapho umhlambi wengulube ezinengi usidla entabeni; asemncenga ukuthi awavumele angene kuzo. Wasewavumela.
33 Baddayimooni ne bava ku musajja ne bayingira mu mbizzi, amangwago eggana lyonna ne lifubutuka nga liserengeta olusozi, ne lyewanula ku bbangabanga, ne ligwa mu nnyanja, embizzi zonna ne zisaanawo.
Kwathi amadimoni esephumile kulowomuntu angena engulubeni; umhlambi wasuphaphatheka usuka eliweni usiya echibini, waminzwa.
34 Abalunzi b’embizzi ezo bwe baakiraba, ne badduka embiro ne bagenda, ne bategeeza ab’omu malundiro ne mu kibuga, ebintu byonna ebibaddewo.
Kwathi ababezelusile bebona okwenzakeleyo babaleka, basuka bayabika emzini, lemaphandleni.
35 Ekibiina ky’abantu ne bagenda okulaba ebibaddewo ne bajja eri Yesu, ne balaba omusajja eyagobwako baddayimooni ng’atudde awo awali ebigere bya Yesu ng’ayambadde engoye era nga mulamu ddala! Ne batya nnyo.
Basebephuma ukuyabona okwenzakeleyo; bafika kuJesu, bamfica umuntu okwakuphume kuye amadimoni ehlezi enyaweni zikaJesu, embethe esephelele engqondweni; basebesesaba.
36 Abo abaaliwo okusookera ddala ne bategeeza abalala ng’omusajja eyaliko ddayimooni bwe yawonyezebwa.
Basebebatshela lalabo ababebonile ukuthi usindiswe njani owayengenwe ngamadimoni.
37 Awo abantu bonna ab’ensi eyo ey’Abagerasene ne basaba Yesu abaviire, kubanga baali batidde nnyo. N’asaabala mu lyato n’avaayo.
Ixuku lonke lesigaba samaGadarene esizingelezeleyo laselimcela ukuthi asuke kubo, ngoba babanjwa yikwesaba okukhulu; yena wasengena emkhunjini waphindela emuva.
38 Omusajja, eyagobwako baddayimooni n’amusaba agende naye, naye Yesu n’agaana.
Kodwa indoda okwakuphume kuyo amadimoni yamncenga ukuthi ibe laye. Kodwa uJesu wayiyekela yahamba, esithi:
39 N’agamba omusajja nti, “Ddayo ewammwe obategeeze Katonda by’akukoledde.” Omusajja n’agenda ng’ategeeza buli gwe yasanganga mu kibuga, Yesu bye yali amukoledde.
Buyela endlini yakho, ulandise ukuthi kungakanani uNkulunkulu akwenze kuwe. Wasesuka wahamba, etshumayela phakathi komuzi wonke ukuthi kungakanani uJesu ayekwenzile kuye.
40 Yesu bwe yakomawo ekibiina ky’abantu ne bamwaniriza n’essanyu kubanga bonna baali bamulindirira.
Kwasekusithi ekubuyeni kukaJesu, ixuku lamthakazelela; ngoba bonke babemlindele.
41 Mu kiseera ekyo ne wajjawo omusajja erinnya lye Yayiro, eyali omukulembeze w’ekkuŋŋaaniro, n’agwa ku bigere bya Yesu n’amwegayirira ajje mu maka ge,
Njalo khangela, kwafika indoda, uJayirosi ngebizo, yona ingumphathi wesinagoge, yasisiwa phansi enyaweni zikaJesu yamncenga ukuthi angene endlini yayo;
42 kubanga muwala we omu yekka gwe yalina, eyali aweza emyaka nga kkumi n’ebiri yali afa. Yesu n’agenda naye, naye ng’ekibiina kimunyigiriza.
ngoba yayilendodakazi eyodwa ezelweyo eyayingaba leminyaka elitshumi lambili, njalo yona yayisisifa. Kwathi esahamba amaxuku amcindezela.
43 Mu kibiina ky’abantu ekyo mwalimu omukazi eyali amaze emyaka kkumi n’ebiri ng’alwadde ekikulukuto ky’omusaayi. Yali atambudde nnyo mu basawo era nga bamumazeeko ebintu bye byonna ng’abasasula, naye ne watabaawo asobola kumuwonya.
Lowesifazana owayelomopho wegazi okweminyaka elitshumi lambili, echithe konke okwempilo yakhe kubelaphi engelakusiliswa langubani,
44 Omukazi ono n’asemberera Yesu ng’amuvaako emabega, n’akoma ku lukugiro lw’ekyambalo kya Yesu, ekikulukuto ky’omusaayi ne kiwona mu kaseera ako kennyini!
wasondela ngemva kwakhe, wathinta umphetho wesembatho sakhe; njalo wahle wakhawula umopho wegazi lakhe.
45 Yesu n’abuuza nti, “Ani ankutteko?” Bonna ne beegaana, naye Peetero n’agamba nti, “Mukama waffe, ekibiina ky’abantu kinene abakwetoolodde era abantu bangi bakunyigiriza.”
UJesu wasesithi: Ngubani ongithintileyo? Kwathi lapho bephika bonke, uPetro wathi lababelaye: Nkosi, ixuku likuminyanisile likucindezele, kodwa uthi: Ngubani ongithintileyo?
46 Naye Yesu n’addamu nti, “Waliwo ankutteko kubanga mpulidde ng’amaanyi ganvaamu.”
Kodwa uJesu wathi: Ukhona ongithintileyo; ngoba mina ngazile ukuthi amandla aphumile kimi.
47 Awo omukazi bwe yategeera ng’avumbuddwa, n’ajja ng’akankana n’agwa awo mu maaso ga Yesu, n’annyonnyola mu maaso g’abantu bonna ensonga kyeyavudde amukwatako, era nti n’obulwadde bwe bwawoneddewo!
Kwathi owesifazana ebona ukuthi kafihlakalanga, weza ethuthumela, wawa phambi kwakhe, walandisa phambi kwabantu bonke ukuthi umthinte ngesizatho bani, lokuthi uhle wasila njani.
48 Yesu n’agamba omukazi nti, “Muwala wange, okukkiriza kwo kukuwonyezza. Genda mirembe.”
Wasesithi kuye: Mana isibindi, ndodakazi, ukholo lwakho lukusindisile; hamba ngokuthula.
49 Awo Yesu bwe yali ng’akyayogera omuntu n’atuuka ng’ava mu maka g’omukulu w’ekkuŋŋaaniro, n’agamba Yayiro nti, “Muwala wo afudde! Omuyigiriza toyongera kumuteganya.”
Esakhuluma, kwafika umuntu evela endlini yomphathi wesinagoge, wathi kuye: Indodakazi yakho isifile; ungamhluphi uMfundisi.
50 Naye Yesu bwe yakiwulira n’amugamba nti, “Totya! Kkiriza bukkiriza, ajja kuba mulamu.”
Kodwa uJesu esizwa, wamphendula, wathi: Ungesabi; kholwa kuphela, njalo izasindiswa.
51 Awo Yesu bwe yatuuka ku nnyumba ya Yayiro, n’atakkiriza bantu balala kuyingira naye mu nju wabula Peetero, ne Yokaana, ne Yakobo, ne kitaawe w’omwana, ne nnyina.
Futhi esengenile endlini, kavumanga ukuthi kungene muntu, ngaphandle kukaPetro loJakobe loJohane, loyise wendodakazi lonina.
52 Mu kiseera ekyo abantu bonna baali bakaaba nga bakungubagira omwana oyo. Yesu n’abagamba nti, “Mulekeraawo okukaaba! Omuwala tafudde wabula yeebase bwebasi!”
Njalo bakhala bonke, beyililela. Kodwa wathi: Lingakhali; kayifanga, kodwa ilele.
53 Ne bamusekerera nnyo, kubanga bonna baali bamanyi ng’omuwala afudde.
Basebemhleka usulu, besazi ukuthi ifile.
54 Naye Yesu n’akwata omuwala eyali afudde ku mukono, n’akoowoola ng’agamba nti, “Mwana wange, golokoka!”
Kodwa yena esebakhuphele phandle bonke, wabamba isandla sayo, wamemeza, esithi: Ndodakazi, vuka!
55 Amangwago n’aba mulamu, n’asituka n’ayimirira. Yesu n’abalagira bamuwe ekyokulya.
Wasubuya umoya wayo, yasivuka khona lapho; waselaya ukuthi kayiphiwe ukudla.
56 Bazadde b’omuwala ne beewuunya, naye Yesu n’abakuutira obutabuulirako muntu yenna ebibaddewo.
Abazali bayo basebemangala kakhulu; kodwa wabalaya ukuthi bangatsheli muntu okwenzakeleyo.
