Maliko 1
1 Kutandubha kwa Ngani ja Mmbone ja a Yeshu Kilishitu bhanabhabho a Nnungu.
The first words of the good news of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
2 Malinga shiijandikwe nshitabhu sha ankulondola bha a Nnungu, a Ishaya. “A Nnungu bhashite, ‘Ngunakuntuma muntenga jwangu annongolele, anng'alashiye mpanda gwenu.’
Even as it is said in the book of Isaiah the prophet, See, I send my servant before your face, who will make ready your way;
3 Apali mundu anapilikanika kuanga alinkuti. ‘Mwaalashiyanje Bhakulungwa mpanda gwabho, nngoloyanje mushibhapite.’”
The voice of one crying in the waste land, Make ready the way of the Lord, make his roads straight;
4 A Yowana Bhaabhatisha kubhakoposhele kuanga, bhalilunguya kuti bhandunji bhaipetanje na bhatishwa nkupinga a Nnungu bhaaleshelelanje yambi yabhonji.
John came, and gave baptism in the waste land, preaching baptism as a sign of forgiveness of sin for those whose hearts were changed.
5 Bhandunji kukopoka mmbali yowe ya ku Yudea na bhashilambo bha ku Yelushalemu gubhaajendelenje kuanga kula, gubhaipetilenje yambi yabhonji, na a Yowana gubhaabhatishenje ku Lushi lwa Yolodani.
And there went out to him all the people of Judaea, and all those of Jerusalem, and they were given baptism by him in the river Jordan, saying that they were sinners.
6 A Yowana shibhawalaga shiwalo sha mabhetya ga ngamia, na nshipi gwa lipende nshigunu. Shalya shabho pushaaliji maije na bhushi gwa mukonde.
And John was clothed in camel's hair, with a leather band about him; and his food was locusts and honey.
7 Bhalabho bhatendaga lunguya bhalinkuti, “Nnyuma jangu bhanakwiya bhakwete mashili kumbunda nne, numbe nne ngapwaa nkali kutepa nigopola mbundo ya ilatu yabho.
And he said to them all, There is one coming after me who is greater than I, whose shoes I am not good enough to undo.
8 Nne pungubhatisha kwa mashi, ikabheje bhenebho shibhammatishanje kwa Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo.”
I have given you baptism with water, but he will give you baptism with the Holy Spirit.
9 Gene mobha pego, a Yeshu gubhaishe kukopoka kushijiji sha Nashaleti shilambo sha ku Galilaya, gubhabhatishwe na a Yowana ku Lushi lwa Yolodani.
And it came about in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was given baptism by John in the Jordan.
10 Bhakakoposheje mmashi, shangupe gubhabhweni kunnungu kuugwishe na Mbumu alikwaatulushila ali mbuti nnjubha.
And straight away, coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens broken open and the Spirit coming down on him as a dove:
11 Lilobhe kukopoka kunnungu likupilikanikaga lilinkuti. “Ugwe mwanangu junguupinga unonyela.”
And a voice came out of heaven, You are my dearly loved Son, with whom I am well pleased.
12 Shangupe Mbumu akwaalongoyaga a Yeshu kwenda kuanga,
And straight away the Spirit sent him out into the waste land.
13 kweneko gubhatemi mobha makumi nsheshe bhalilingwa naka Lishetani. Kweneko pubhaaliji pamo na bhannyama bha mukonde, akuno ashimalaika bhalikwaatumishilanga.
And he was in the waste land for forty days, being tested by Satan; and he was with the beasts; and the angels took care of him.
14 A Yowana bhakatabhweje nnigelesha, a Yeshu gubhapite ku Galilaya, gubhalungwiye Ngani ja Mmbone ja a Nnungu bhalinkuti,
Now after John had been put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the good news of God,
15 “Malanga gamalile, na Upalume gwa a Nnungu ubhandishile. Mwiipetanje yambi yenunji na nnjikulupalilanje Ngani ja Mmbone!”
And saying, The time has come, and the kingdom of God is near: let your hearts be turned from sin and have faith in the good news.
16 A Yeshu pubhapitaga nnyenje litanda lya Galilaya, gubhaabhweninji bhaatanda yamaki bhabhili. A Shimoni na apwabho a Ndeleya bhalitandanga yamaki na lyau.
And going by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew, the brother of Simon, putting a net into the sea: for they were fishermen.
17 A Yeshu gubhaalugulilenje, “Nngagulanje nnjiyangane ninnjiganyanje kwaajiya nabhonji bhandu kwa a Nnungu.”
And Jesus said to them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.
18 Shangu gubhaleshilenje mau gabhonji, gubhaakagwilenje.
And they went straight from their nets, and came after him.
19 Bhakajendeje mmujo kashoko gubhaabhweninji a Yakobho na apwabho a Yowana bhana bha a Shebhedayo. Na bhalabhonji mubhalinginji muntumbwi bhalialayanga mau gabhonji.
And going on a little farther, he saw James, the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who were in their boat stitching up their nets.
20 Shangupe a Yeshu gubhaashemilenje, na bhalabhonji gubhaaleshilenje ainabhabhonji a Shebhedayo muntumbwi na bhatumishi, nigubhaakagwilenje.
And he said, Come after me: and they went away from their father Zebedee, who was in the boat with the servants, and came after him.
21 Gubhaikengene ku Kapalanaumu, likaishileje lyubha lya Pumulila, a Yeshu gubhajinjile nshinagogi, gubhatandwibhe kujiganya.
And they came to Capernaum; and on the Sabbath he went into the Synagogue and gave teaching.
22 Bhandunji bhowe bhaapilikenenje gubhaimukenje kwa majiganyo gabho. Pabha bhakajiganyaga mbuti bhaajiganya bha Shalia, ikabheje malinga mundu akwete ukulungwa.
And they were full of wonder at his teaching, because he gave it as one having authority, and not like the scribes.
23 Malanga gogo gwakoposhele mundu jumo aliji nshinagogi mula, akwete lioka lyangali lya mmbone,
And there was in their Synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he gave a cry,
24 nigwakweshiye lilobhe alinkuti, “Nkutupinga nndi mmwe a Yeshu Bhanashaleti? Bhuli nshikwiya kutumaliya? Nne nimmanyi mmwe agani, mmwe Mundu jwa ukonjelo jwa Nnungu!”
Saying, What have we to do with you, Jesus of Nazareth? have you come to put an end to us? I see well who you are, the Holy One of God.
25 A Yeshu gubhankalipile lioka jula bhalinkuti. “Pumula! Gunshoshe munduju.”
And Jesus said to him sharply, Be quiet, and come out of him.
26 Bhai, lioka jwangali jwa mmbone jula gwanngwishiye mundu jula shialala, gwagutile kwa utiya, kungai nigwanshoshile.
And the unclean spirit, shaking him violently, and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.
27 Bhandu bhowe gubhakanganigwenje, gubhabhuyenenje, “Sheneshi nndi? Igala majiganyo ga ambi? Abha bhandubha bhashikola mashili ga kugabhalanjila nkali maoka gangali ga mmbone na ganakwaapilikana!”
And they were all greatly surprised, so that they put questions to one another, saying, What is this? a new teaching! with authority he gives orders even to the unclean spirits, and they do what he says.
28 Shangupe ngani ja a Yeshu gujishumile mmbali yowe ya ku Galilaya.
And news of him went out quickly everywhere into all parts of Galilee round about.
29 Bhakakopokanganeje nshinagogi mula, a Yeshu gubhalongene na a Yakobho na a Yowana kwenda kumui kwa a Shimoni na a Ndeleya.
And when they came out of the Synagogue, they went into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30 Bhai, akwebhabho a Shimoni bhakongwe pubhaaliji bhalwele, bhagonile pa shinanda. A Yeshu bhakaisheje shangupe gubhaabhalanjilenjen.
Now Simon's wife's mother was ill, with a burning heat; and they gave him word of her:
31 A Yeshu gubhaajendele bhakongwe bhala gubhaakamwile nkono, nikwaajinula. Na shilwele shila shikwaashokaga, gubhatandwibhe kwaatumishilanga.
And he came and took her by the hand, lifting her up; and she became well, and took care of their needs.
32 Likaishileje ligulo, gubhaapeleshelenje a Yeshu bhalwelenji bhowe na bhandu bha shikilwanga maoka.
And in the evening, at sundown, they took to him all who were diseased, and those who had evil spirits.
33 Bhandunji bhowe bha shene shilambo shila gubhaloposhelenje pa nnango gwa nyumba jila.
And all the town had come together at the door.
34 Na a Yeshu gubhaalamiyenje bhandu bhabhagwinji bhakwetenje ilwele, gubhaashoshiyenje maoka gamagwinji, ikabheje bhangagaleka gabhelekete pabha gabhamanyi kuti bhalabho agani.
And a number, who were ill with different diseases, he made well, and sent out evil spirits; but he did not let the evil spirits say anything, because they had knowledge of him.
35 Malabhi gakwe, kumashelo a Yeshu gubhajabhwile nikwenda kujika kukwaajuga a Nnungu.
And in the morning, a long time before daylight, he got up and went out to a quiet place, and there he gave himself up to prayer.
36 A Shimoni na ashaajabhonji gubhapitengene kukwaaloleya.
And Simon and those who were with him came after him.
37 Bhakaabhonanjeje gubhaalugulilenje, “Bhandu bhowe bhanakunnoleyanga.”
And when they came up with him, they said to him, Everyone is looking for you.
38 A Yeshu gubhaabhalanjilenje, “Twendangane ku ilambo ina ya tome ngalunguye na kweneko, pabha na kweneko ni kundendile nyiye”
And he said to them, Let us go to other parts into the nearest towns, so that I may give teaching there, because for this purpose I came.
39 Bhai, gubhapitile kila mmbali ya ku Galilaya bhalipita lunguya mmashinagogi na shoya maoka.
And he went into their Synagogues in every part of Galilee, preaching and driving out evil spirits.
40 Mundu jumo nnwele mangundula gwabhajendele a Yeshu akwaatindibhalilaga alinkuti, “Mpingaga, nnikombola kunamya!”
And a leper came to him and, going down on his knees before him, made a request, saying, If it is your pleasure, you have the power to make me clean.
41 A Yeshu gubhammonele shiya, gubhagolweye nkono gwabho, gubhankwashiye bhalinkuti, “Ngunapinga, ulame!”
And being moved with pity, he put out his hand, and touching him said to him, It is my pleasure; be made clean.
42 Shangupe mangundula gala gakunshokaga mundu jula, gwalamile.
And straight away the disease went from him, and he was made clean.
43 Kungai a Yeshu gubhammalanjile mundu jula ajabhule akuno bhalikunkomelesheya kuti,
And he sent him away, saying to him very sharply,
44 “Upilikane, unammalanjile mundu jojowe shene shindushi, ikabhe ujende ukaalangule bhaabhishila shiushite lama, na ukashoye mbepei kwa lama kwako malinga shiamulishwe na a Musha, nkukong'ondela kuti ulamile.”
See that you say nothing to any man: but go and let the priest see you, and make yourself clean by an offering of the things ordered by Moses, for a witness to them.
45 Ikabheje mundu jula akajabhuleje gwatandwibhe kushumya ngani jila kila mmbali akuno alitalashiya gamagwinji, mpaka a Yeshu gubhalepele kwenda shilambo shoshowe nibhoneka ku bhandu, gubhatemi kunyenje shilambo, kujika. Nkali nneyo bhandunji koposhela kila mmbali gubhaajendelelenje.
But he went out, and made it public, giving an account of it everywhere, so that Jesus was no longer able to go openly into a town, but was outside in the waste land; and they came to him from every part.
