Luka 7
1 Yesu peamali kujova ago kwa vandu akahamba ku Kapelanaumu.
After he had finished speaking in the hearing of the people, he entered into Kepharnakhum.
2 Kwenuko kwavili na mkulu mmonga wa vandu va ngondo va ku Loma, mwenuyo avi na mtumisi, mweamyidikili neju mwealwala mulung'olelu.
A certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick and at the point of death.
3 Mkulu yula wa Loma peayuwini mambu ga Yesu, akavatuma vagogo vangi va Vayawudi vakamuyupayi abwela kumulamisa mtumisi waki.
When he heard about Yeshua, he sent to him Jewish elders, asking him to come and save his servant.
4 Pevahikili kwa Yesu, vakamjovela, “pepayi bambu, mundu mwenuyu, yitakiwa atangatiwayi.
When they came to Yeshua, they pleaded with him earnestly, saying, "He is worthy for you to do this for him,
5 Ndava mwenuyu akuvagana vandu vitu, kangi ndi mweatijengili nyumba ya kukonganekela Vayawudi.”
for he loves our nation, and he built our synagogue for us."
6 Ndi Yesu akahamba nawu. Pavahegalili pa nyumba ya mkulu yula, ndi mkulu akavatuma vankozi vaki vakamjovelayi Yesu, “Bambu, kotoka kujing'aha. Muni nene nakujiwona ngati nabwina hati veve kuyingila mumyumba yangu,
Yeshua went with them. When he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying to him, "Lord, do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy for you to come under my roof.
7 Kangi, nikajiweni nabwina lepi, nene kubwela kwa veve. Nambu jovayi ngalilovi na mtumisi wangu yati ilama.
Therefore I did not even think myself worthy to come to you; but say the word, and my servant will be healed.
8 Ndava muni nene mewa, mundu mwenivikiwi pahi ya uhotola wa vakulu vangu nivi na manjolinjoli, nikamjovelayi mmonga, ‘Hambayi!’ Ihamba, nikamjovela yungi, ‘Bwelayi!’ Na mwene ibwela, Nikamjovelayi na mvanda wangu, ‘Kita naha!’ Namwene ikita.”
For I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers. I tell this one, 'Go.' and he goes; and to another, 'Come.' and he comes; and to my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it."
9 Yesu akakangasa paayuwini genago, akaung'anamukila msambi wa vandu wewamlandali, akavajovela, “Niloli lepi sadika yivaha ngati iyi hati pagati ya vandu va Isilaeli!”
When Yeshua heard these things, he was amazed at him, and turned and said to the crowd who followed him, "I tell you, I have not found such great faith, no, not in Israyel."
10 Ndi vandu vala pavawuyili kunyumba vakamkolela mtumisi yula alamili.
And when those who had been sent returned to the house, they found the servant in good health.
11 Chilau yaki, Yesu akahamba kumuji umonga weukemelewa Naini, na vawuliwa vaki pamonga na msambi wa vandu ukalongosana nayu.
It happened soon afterwards, that he went to a city called Nayin; and many of his disciples, along with a large crowd, went with him.
12 Ndi pavahegalili papipi na mlyangu mkulu wa muji, vakakonganeka na vandu vavagegili mtuhi wa msongolo mmonga, mwana yuyoyo ndu wa lipwela. Vandu vamahele va pamuji wenuwo vavi pamonga na mau mwenuyo.
And when he drew near to the gate of the city, then look, a man who was dead was carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow; and a large crowd from the city was with her.
13 Bambu Yesu paamuweni mau yula, akamhengela lipyana akamjovela, “Kotoka kuvemba.”
When the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said to her, "Do not cry."
14 Kangi Yesu akahamba na kupamisa lusongwani chavagegili mtuhi na vavagegili vala vakayima. Akajova, “Wamsongolo veve! Nijova yimuka!”
He came near and touched the coffin, and the bearers stood still. He said, "Young man, I tell you, arise."
15 Mweafwi yula akayima akatumbula kulongela. Yesu akampela mau yula mwana waki.
He who was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he gave him to his mother.
16 Ndi vandu voha vakavya na wogohi, vakatumbula kumulumbalila Chapanga. Vakajova, “Mlota mkulu wa Chapanga atihumali pagati yitu, Chapanga abwelili kuvatangila vandu vaki.”
Fear took hold of all, and they glorified God, saying, "A great prophet has arisen among us." and, "God has visited his people."
17 Mambu genago gakadandasika pamulima woha wa Yudea na milima yoha yeyavi papipi.
This report went out concerning him in the whole of Yehuda, and in all the surrounding region.
18 Vawuliwa vaki Yohani pevamjovili mambu goha. Ndi akavakemela vawuliwa vavili,
The disciples of Yukhanan told him about all these things.
19 akavatuma kwa Bambu vakamkotayi, “Veve ndi msangula mweibwela, amala timulindila yungi?”
Yukhanan, calling to himself two of his disciples, sent them to the Lord, saying, "Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?"
20 Pavahikili kwa Yesu, vakamjovela, “Yohani Mbatizaji atitumili tikukotayi, ngati veve ndi msangula mweibwela, amala timlindila yungi.”
When the men had come to him, they said, "Yukhanan the Baptist has sent us to you, saying, 'Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?'"
21 Lukumbi lwenulo vamkoli Yesu avalamisayi vandu vamahele vevavi na matamu na vana mizuka yihakau akayiwusa, na vangalola vamahele akavakita kulola.
In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and to many who were blind he gave sight.
22 Ndi akavajovela muhamba mukamjovela Yohani goha gemugaweni na kuyuwana. Vangalola vilola, vangagenda vigenda, vanamabudi vinyambiswa, vangayuwa viyuwana, vavafwili vihyukiswa, na vangangu vikokosewa Lilovi la Bwina.
Yeshua answered them, "Go and tell Yukhanan the things which you have seen and heard: that the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.
23 Ahekayi mundu yula mweangayoma ndava ya nene!
Blessed is he who is not offended by me."
24 Vajumbi va Yohani vala pavawukili, ndi Yesu akatumbula kuukota msambi wa vandu gakumuvala Yohani, “Pamwahambili kulugangatu kumlola Yohani, mwaganili kulola kiki? Wu, mwaholalili kumlola mundu mweavi ngati lidete lelinyuguswa na mpungu?
When Yukhanan's messengers had departed, he began to tell the crowds about Yukhanan, "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
25 Hinu, mwahambili kulola kiki? Mundu mwaawali nyula za nyililili? Vandu veviwala chakujinyambisa na kutama wumi wabwina, venavo vavi munyumba za vankosi.
But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft clothing? Look, those who are gorgeously dressed, and live delicately, are in kings' courts.
26 Munijovela chemukahambili kulola? Mlota wa Chapanga? Ena, chakaka kangi neju ya Mlota wa Chapanga.
But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.
27 Yohani mwenuyu ndi malovi gayandikiwi mu Mayandiku kumvala mwene, ‘Lola nene nikumtuma mjumbi wangu akulongolela, ndava ya kukukwalila njila yaku.’
This is he of whom it is written, 'Look, I send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.'
28 Yesu akamalakisila kujova,” “Kawaka mundu, mweavelikiwi na mdala mkulu kuliku Yohani Mbatizaji. Nambu mweavi mdebe muunkosi wa Chapanga, mwenuyo ndi mkulu kuliku mwene.”
"I tell you, among those who are born of women there is none greater than Yukhanan, yet he who is least in the Kingdom of God is greater than he."
29 Vandu voha pamonga na vatola kodi vevabatiziwi na Yohani, pevayuwini genago, vakayidakila Chapanga ndi mchakaka.
When all the people and the tax collectors heard this, they declared God to be just, having been baptized with Yukhanan's baptism.
30 Nambu Vafalisayu na vawula va Malagizu vala vevabatiziwi lepi na Yohani, ndi vabeli mpangu wa Chapanga ndava ya mambu gavi.
But the Pharisees and the Law scholars rejected the counsel of God, not being baptized by him themselves.
31 Yesu akavajovela, “Chiveleku cha vandu ava kwali nivawanangisa na kyani? Vene vandu ava valingini na kiki?
"To what then will I liken the people of this generation? What are they like?
32 Vavi ngati vana vevatamii pandu pakugulisila vindu vikemelana, chikundi chimonga na chiyaki, ‘Tivabetili chitolilo nambu nyenye mwanga kina! Tivayimbili nyimbu za malilu nambu muvembi lepi!’
They are like children who sit in the marketplace, and call one to another, saying, 'We played the flute for you, and you did not dance. We mourned, and you did not weep.'
33 Yohani peabweli, ajihinisi chakulya wala kunywa divayi, mkamjova ‘Mwenuyu anamzuka!’
For Yukhanan the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, 'He has a demon.'
34 Mwana wa Mundu abwelili, ilya na kunywa, nyenye mujova, ‘Mumlola muhutulu na chigaligali uyu, nkozi wa vatola kodi na vandu vevakumbudila Chapanga!’
The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, 'Look, a gluttonous man, and a drunkard; a friend of tax collectors and sinners.'
35 Nambu luhala lwa Chapanga lulangisa, yakuvya chakaka kwa voha vevakuluyidakila.”
Wisdom is justified by all her children."
36 Mfalisayu mmonga amgongolili Yesu kulya panyumba yaki. Akayingila munyumba ya Mfalisayu yula na kutama kulya.
One of the Pharisees invited him to eat with him. He entered into the Pharisee's house, and sat at the table.
37 Ndi pamuji wenuwo avi mdala mmonga wumi waki atamayi kumbudila Chapanga. Akayuwana Yesu avili munyumba ya Mfalisayu uyu, ndi akatola chupa yeyahongoliwi kwa liganga la alabasta yeyavi na mahuta ga kunungalila bwina.
And look, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that he was reclining in the Pharisee's house, she brought an alabaster jar of ointment.
38 Akayima papipi na magendelu ga Yesu kuni avembayi, na maholi gaki gamudonyokela Yesu mumagendelu, akahungula magendelu ga Yesu na mayunju gaki, akagabusu magendelu gala na kunyala mahuta genago.
Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
39 Mfalisayu mweamugongolili Yesu pealoli genago akaholalela mumtima waki, “Mwe mundu uyu ngaavi chakaka mlota wa Chapanga, ngaammanyi mdala mweampamisi, kuvya mweakumbudila Chapanga!”
Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, "This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner."
40 Yesu akamjovela mfalisayu yula. “Simoni, chivii chindu chenigana kukujovela.” Simoni, akamyangula, “Ena muwula, jovayi.”
Yeshua answered him, "Shimon, I have something to tell you." He said, "Teacher, say on."
41 Yesu akajova, “Vandu vavili vamuyahiki mundu mashonga. Mmonga ayayiki mashonga ga luhuna lwa mwaka umonga na miheyi sita na yungi ayaiki mashonga ga luhuna lwa mwehi umonga na majuma gavili.
"A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
42 Voha vavili vavilepi na mashonga ga kuwuyisa, mundu yula avahulumili voha. Hinu yani mweakumugana neju bambu yula?”
When they could not pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most?"
43 Simoni akamyangula, “Chakaka mweahulumiwi mashonga ga mahele yula alamugana neju bambu yula.” Yesu akamjovela, “Uhamwili chabwina.”
Shimon answered, "He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most." He said to him, "You have judged correctly."
44 Kangi akamng'anamukila mdala yula na akamjovela Simoni, “Umlola mdala uyu? Penikayingili munyumba yaku unipeli lepi manji gakusamba mumagendelu gangu, nambu mdala uyu anitepatisi magendelu gangu na maholi gaki na kuhungula na mayunju gaki.
Turning to the woman, he said to Shimon, "Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, and you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears, and wiped them with her hair.
45 Penikayingili unikemili lepi chakunibusu mulitama, nambu mdala uyu kutumbula panakayingila hakotwiki lepi kunijambusa cha kunibusu litama laki mumagendelu gangu.
You gave me no kiss, but she, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.
46 Uninyalili lepi mahuta ga zeituni kumutu veve, nambu mdala uyu aninyalili mahuta geginungalila bwina mumagendelu gangu.
You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.
47 Nikukujovela, alekekisiwi kumbudila Chapanga pamahele ndava muni alangisi uganu uvaha. Nambu mundu mwealekekiswi kumbudila Chapanga padebe ilangisa uganu udebe.”
Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But the one who is forgiven little, loves little."
48 Yesu akamjovela mdala yula, “Ulekekiswi goha geumbudili Chapanga.”
He said to her, "Your sins are forgiven."
49 Vandu vala vavatamili na Yesu pakulya pala, vakatumbula kukotana, “Mundu uyu ndi yani? Hati ihotola kulekekesa vandu vevakumbudila Chapanga?”
And those who were reclining with him began to say to themselves, "Who is this who even forgives sins?"
50 Ndi Yesu akamjovela mdala yula, “Kusadika kwaku kukulamisi, uhamba na uteke.”
He said to the woman, "Your faith has saved you. Go in peace."
