Maliko 1
1 Kutandubha kwa Ngani ja Mmbone ja a Yeshu Kilishitu bhanabhabho a Nnungu.
A beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, 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.’
As it hath been written in the prophets, 'Lo, I send My messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee,' —
3 Apali mundu anapilikanika kuanga alinkuti. ‘Mwaalashiyanje Bhakulungwa mpanda gwabho, nngoloyanje mushibhapite.’”
'A voice of one calling in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, straight make ye his paths,' —
4 A Yowana Bhaabhatisha kubhakoposhele kuanga, bhalilunguya kuti bhandunji bhaipetanje na bhatishwa nkupinga a Nnungu bhaaleshelelanje yambi yabhonji.
John came baptizing in the wilderness, and proclaiming a baptism of reformation — to remission of sins,
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 were going forth to him all the region of Judea, and they of Jerusalem, and they were all baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
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 with camel's hair, and a girdle of skin around his loins, and eating locusts and honey of the field,
7 Bhalabho bhatendaga lunguya bhalinkuti, “Nnyuma jangu bhanakwiya bhakwete mashili kumbunda nne, numbe nne ngapwaa nkali kutepa nigopola mbundo ya ilatu yabho.
and he proclaimed, saying, 'He doth come — who is mightier than I — after me, of whom I am not worthy — having stooped down — to loose the latchet of his sandals;
8 Nne pungubhatisha kwa mashi, ikabheje bhenebho shibhammatishanje kwa Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo.”
I indeed did baptize you with water, but he shall baptize you 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 to pass in those days, Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John at the Jordan;
10 Bhakakoposheje mmashi, shangupe gubhabhweni kunnungu kuugwishe na Mbumu alikwaatulushila ali mbuti nnjubha.
and immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens dividing, and the Spirit as a dove coming down upon him;
11 Lilobhe kukopoka kunnungu likupilikanikaga lilinkuti. “Ugwe mwanangu junguupinga unonyela.”
and a voice came out of the heavens, 'Thou art My Son — the Beloved, in whom I did delight.'
12 Shangupe Mbumu akwaalongoyaga a Yeshu kwenda kuanga,
And immediately doth the Spirit put him forth to the wilderness,
13 kweneko gubhatemi mobha makumi nsheshe bhalilingwa naka Lishetani. Kweneko pubhaaliji pamo na bhannyama bha mukonde, akuno ashimalaika bhalikwaatumishilanga.
and he was there in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by the Adversary, and he was with the beasts, and the messengers were ministering to him.
14 A Yowana bhakatabhweje nnigelesha, a Yeshu gubhapite ku Galilaya, gubhalungwiye Ngani ja Mmbone ja a Nnungu bhalinkuti,
And after the delivering up of John, Jesus came to Galilee, proclaiming the good news of the reign of God,
15 “Malanga gamalile, na Upalume gwa a Nnungu ubhandishile. Mwiipetanje yambi yenunji na nnjikulupalilanje Ngani ja Mmbone!”
and saying — 'Fulfilled hath been the time, and the reign of God hath come nigh, reform ye, and believe 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, walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew his brother, casting a drag into the sea, for they were fishers,
17 A Yeshu gubhaalugulilenje, “Nngagulanje nnjiyangane ninnjiganyanje kwaajiya nabhonji bhandu kwa a Nnungu.”
and Jesus said to them, 'Come ye after me, and I shall make you to become fishers of men;'
18 Shangu gubhaleshilenje mau gabhonji, gubhaakagwilenje.
and immediately, having left their nets, they followed him.
19 Bhakajendeje mmujo kashoko gubhaabhweninji a Yakobho na apwabho a Yowana bhana bha a Shebhedayo. Na bhalabhonji mubhalinginji muntumbwi bhalialayanga mau gabhonji.
And having gone on thence a little, he saw James of Zebedee, and John his brother, and they were in the boat refitting the nets,
20 Shangupe a Yeshu gubhaashemilenje, na bhalabhonji gubhaaleshilenje ainabhabhonji a Shebhedayo muntumbwi na bhatumishi, nigubhaakagwilenje.
and immediately he called them, and, having left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, they went away after him.
21 Gubhaikengene ku Kapalanaumu, likaishileje lyubha lya Pumulila, a Yeshu gubhajinjile nshinagogi, gubhatandwibhe kujiganya.
And they go on to Capernaum, and immediately, on the sabbaths, having gone into the synagogue, he was teaching,
22 Bhandunji bhowe bhaapilikenenje gubhaimukenje kwa majiganyo gabho. Pabha bhakajiganyaga mbuti bhaajiganya bha Shalia, ikabheje malinga mundu akwete ukulungwa.
and they were astonished at his teaching, for he was teaching them as having authority, and not as 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 cried out,
24 nigwakweshiye lilobhe alinkuti, “Nkutupinga nndi mmwe a Yeshu Bhanashaleti? Bhuli nshikwiya kutumaliya? Nne nimmanyi mmwe agani, mmwe Mundu jwa ukonjelo jwa Nnungu!”
saying, 'Away! what — to us and to thee, Jesus the Nazarene? thou didst come to destroy us; I have known thee who thou art — the Holy One of God.'
25 A Yeshu gubhankalipile lioka jula bhalinkuti. “Pumula! Gunshoshe munduju.”
And Jesus rebuked him, saying, 'Be silenced, and come forth out of him,'
26 Bhai, lioka jwangali jwa mmbone jula gwanngwishiye mundu jula shialala, gwagutile kwa utiya, kungai nigwanshoshile.
and the unclean spirit having torn him, and having cried with a great voice, came forth 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 amazed, so as to reason among themselves, saying, 'What is this? what new teaching [is] this? that with authority also the unclean spirits he commandeth, and they obey him!'
28 Shangupe ngani ja a Yeshu gujishumile mmbali yowe ya ku Galilaya.
And the fame of him went forth immediately to all the region, round about, of Galilee.
29 Bhakakopokanganeje nshinagogi mula, a Yeshu gubhalongene na a Yakobho na a Yowana kwenda kumui kwa a Shimoni na a Ndeleya.
And immediately, having come forth out of the synagogue, they went to 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.
and the mother-in-law of Simon was lying fevered, and immediately they tell him about her,
31 A Yeshu gubhaajendele bhakongwe bhala gubhaakamwile nkono, nikwaajinula. Na shilwele shila shikwaashokaga, gubhatandwibhe kwaatumishilanga.
and having come near, he raised her up, having laid hold of her hand, and the fever left her immediately, and she was ministering to them.
32 Likaishileje ligulo, gubhaapeleshelenje a Yeshu bhalwelenji bhowe na bhandu bha shikilwanga maoka.
And evening having come, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all who were ill, and who were demoniacs,
33 Bhandunji bhowe bha shene shilambo shila gubhaloposhelenje pa nnango gwa nyumba jila.
and the whole city was gathered together near the door,
34 Na a Yeshu gubhaalamiyenje bhandu bhabhagwinji bhakwetenje ilwele, gubhaashoshiyenje maoka gamagwinji, ikabheje bhangagaleka gabhelekete pabha gabhamanyi kuti bhalabho agani.
and he healed many who were ill of manifold diseases, and many demons he cast forth, and was not suffering the demons to speak, because they knew him.
35 Malabhi gakwe, kumashelo a Yeshu gubhajabhwile nikwenda kujika kukwaajuga a Nnungu.
And very early, it being yet night, having risen, he went forth, and went away to a desert place, and was there praying;
36 A Shimoni na ashaajabhonji gubhapitengene kukwaaloleya.
and Simon and those with him went in quest of him,
37 Bhakaabhonanjeje gubhaalugulilenje, “Bhandu bhowe bhanakunnoleyanga.”
and having found him, they say to him, — 'All do seek thee;'
38 A Yeshu gubhaabhalanjilenje, “Twendangane ku ilambo ina ya tome ngalunguye na kweneko, pabha na kweneko ni kundendile nyiye”
and he saith to them, 'We may go to the next towns, that there also I may preach, for for this I came forth.'
39 Bhai, gubhapitile kila mmbali ya ku Galilaya bhalipita lunguya mmashinagogi na shoya maoka.
And he was preaching in their synagogues, in all Galilee, and is casting out the demons,
40 Mundu jumo nnwele mangundula gwabhajendele a Yeshu akwaatindibhalilaga alinkuti, “Mpingaga, nnikombola kunamya!”
and there doth come to him a leper, calling on him, and kneeling to him, and saying to him — 'If thou mayest will, thou art able to cleanse me.'
41 A Yeshu gubhammonele shiya, gubhagolweye nkono gwabho, gubhankwashiye bhalinkuti, “Ngunapinga, ulame!”
And Jesus having been moved with compassion, having stretched forth the hand, touched him, and saith to him, 'I will; be thou cleansed;'
42 Shangupe mangundula gala gakunshokaga mundu jula, gwalamile.
and he having spoken, immediately the leprosy went away from him, and he was cleansed.
43 Kungai a Yeshu gubhammalanjile mundu jula ajabhule akuno bhalikunkomelesheya kuti,
And having sternly charged him, immediately he put him forth,
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.”
and saith to him, 'See thou mayest say nothing to any one, but go away, thyself shew to the priest, and bring near for thy cleansing the things Moses directed, for a testimony 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.
And he, having gone forth, began to proclaim much, and to spread abroad the thing, so that no more he was able openly to enter into the city, but he was without in desert places, and they were coming unto him from every quarter.
