Luka 17
1 Yesu kawagambira wafundwa wakuwi, “Vintu vyavimtenda muntu katendi vidoda mpaka vilawili, kumbiti shondi kwa ulii yakavijega!
He said to the disciples, “It is impossible that no occasions of stumbling should come, but woe to him through whom they come!
2 Ayiweri mbaka kwa muntu yakavijega vikomu kumtawa musingu libuwi likulu lya kusagila na kumwasira mubahali, kuliku kumkalaziya yumu gwa wadidini awa watendi vidoda.
It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, rather than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble.
3 Muliloleli weri ntambu yamtenda! “Handa mlongu gwaku pakatenda vidoda, gumkalipiri na pakaleka gumlekizii.
Be careful. If your brother sins against you, rebuke him. If he repents, forgive him.
4 Handa pakakukoseya mala saba kwa lishaka limu, na kila shipindi pakakuwuyira na kutakula, ‘Vyantenditi gunekiziyi,’ su gufiruwa gumlekizii.”
If he sins against you seven times in the day, and seven times returns, saying, ‘I repent,’ you shall forgive him.”
5 Wantumintumi wamgambiriti Mtuwa, “Gutongeleri njimiru.”
The emissaries said to the Lord, “Increase our faith.”
6 Mtuwa kawankula, “Handa njimiru yenu payiwera nkulu gambira mbeyu ya ndidini nentu, hamuwezi kugugambira mtera gwa mkuyu, ‘Gutupuki gukaliyoshikeri mubahali!’ Ndo meguwajimili.
The Lord said, “If you had faith like a grain of mustard seed, you would tell this sycamore tree, ‘Be uprooted and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.
7 “Yumu pakati penu pakawera na ntumintumi yakalima lirambu ama kankulolera wakondolu. Pakawuya kulawa kulirambu, hakamgambiri ntumintumi ulii kamkamu, gwizi gulii shiboga?
But who is there amongst you, having a servant ploughing or keeping sheep, that will say when he comes in from the field, ‘Come immediately and sit down at the table’?
8 Ndala! Hakamgambiri, ‘Gunyawili huti shiboga, shakapanu guvali na guweri kala kuntendera mpaka mmalili kuliya na kulanda, shakapanu gwenga hagulii.’
Wouldn’t he rather tell him, ‘Prepare my supper, clothe yourself properly, and serve me while I eat and drink. Afterward you shall eat and drink’?
9 Hashi, hagulongi mayagashii kwa ntumintumi toziya katenda vyakamgambiriti?
Does he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded? I think not.
10 Ntambu iraa ayi kwa mwenga, pamtenda kala vyoseri vyawawagambiriti mtendi, mlongi, ‘Twenga twawantumintumi hera weni twahera mota, tutenda hera lihengu lyetu.’”
Even so you also, when you have done all the things that are commanded you, say, ‘We are unworthy servants. We have done our duty.’”
11 Yesu pakaweriti mumwanja kugenda Yerusalemu, kapitiliti mumipaka mwa Samariya na Galilaya.
As he was on his way to Jerusalem, he was passing along the borders of Samaria and Galilee.
12 Pakaweriti kankwingira pashijiji, kaliwoniti na wantu lilongu limu yawaweriti na ungumbula. Wagolokiti kwa kutali
As he entered into a certain village, ten men who were lepers met him, who stood at a distance.
13 na wabotanga pawalonga, “Yesu! Mtuwa! Gutuwoneri lusungu!”
They lifted up their voices, saying, “Yeshua, Master, have mercy on us!”
14 Yesu kawawoniti na kawagambira, “Mgendi mwakaliwonisiyi kwa mkulu gwa ludewa.” Pawaweriti munjira wankugenda su wapungikiti.
When he saw them, he said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” As they went, they were cleansed.
15 Yumu pakati pawu pakawoniti handa kapona, kawuyiti pakamkwisa Mlungu kwa liziwu likulu.
One of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, glorifying God with a loud voice.
16 Kasuntama makukama pa magulu ga Yesu nakulonga mayagashii kwa Yesu. Muntu ulii kaweriti Msamariya.
He fell on his face at Yeshua’s feet, giving him thanks; and he was a Samaritan.
17 Yesu kalonga, “Kuweriti na wantu lilongu yawapungitwi, wakoshi walii wamonga tisa?
Yeshua answered, “Weren’t the ten cleansed? But where are the nine?
18 Iwera ashi muhenga ayu gweka yakuwi ndo kiza kumkwisa Mlungu?”
Were there none found who returned to give glory to God, except this foreigner?”
19 Na Yesu kamgambira, “Gugoloki na gugendi, njimiru yaku ikuponiziya.”
Then he said to him, “Get up, and go your way. Your faith has healed you.”
20 Mafalisayu wamu wamkosiyiti Yesu, “Ufalumi wa Mlungu wankwiza ndi?” Yomberi kawankula, “Ufalumi wa Mlungu wankwiza ndiri ntambu ya kuwoneka.
Being asked by the Pharisees when God’s Kingdom would come, he answered them, “God’s Kingdom doesn’t come with observation;
21 Kwahera muntu hakawezi kutakula, ‘Guloli’ wapalaa! Ama ‘Wa palii!’ Toziya Ufalumi wa Mlungu wamngati mwenu.”
neither will they say, ‘Look, here!’ or, ‘Look, there!’ for behold, God’s Kingdom is within you.”
22 Shakapanu kawagambira wafundwa wakuwi, “Shipindi hakizi pamfira kulilola lishaka limu mumashaka ga Mwana gwa Muntu, kumbiti hapeni muliwoni.
He said to the disciples, “The days will come when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it.
23 Wantu woseri hawakugambirani, ‘Mloli, ka palii!’ Ama, ‘Mloli ka panu!’ Kumbiti mwenga namlawa pota namuwafata,
They will tell you, ‘Look, here!’ or ‘Look, there!’ Don’t go away or follow after them,
24 toziya Mwana gwa Adamu mumashaka gakuwi, hakaweri gambira lumeta lwa lupanda ntambu yalulangala kulyera kwanjira uwega umu mpaka uwega umonga.
for as the lightning, when it flashes out of one part under the sky, shines to another part under the sky, so will the Son of Man be in his day.
25 Kumbiti kwanja kafiruwa katabiki muvitwatira vivuwa na kulemwa na wantu wa shiyiwuku ashi.
But first, he must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.
26 Ntambu yayiweriti mumashaka ga Nuhu, ndo hayiweri mumashaka ga Mwana gwa Muntu.
As it was in the days of Noah, even so it will also be in the days of the Son of Man.
27 Wantu wendereyiti kuliya na kulanda, na wapalu hawayugi na wadala kuyugwa mpaka shipindi shilii Nuhu pakayingiliti musafina. Mafuliku galawiti na kuwalaga woseri.
They ate, they drank, they married, and they were given in marriage until the day that Noah entered into the ship, and the flood came and destroyed them all.
28 Hayiweri gambira shipindi sha Lutu. Wantu wendereyiti kuliya na kulanda, kuhemera na kuuza, kuyala na kunyawa.
Likewise, even as it was in the days of Lot: they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built;
29 Lishaka lilii Lutu pakawukiti Sodoma, motu na mabuhi ga motu gatowiti gambira mvula kulawa kumpindi na kuwalaga woseri.
but in the day that Lot went out from Sodom, it rained fire and sulphur from the sky and destroyed them all.
30 Ntambu ayi hayiweri mulijuwa lilii Mwana gwa Muntu pakawoneka.”
It will be the same way in the day that the Son of Man is revealed.
31 “Lijuwa lilii muntu yakawera pampindi pashitwiku pa numba yakuwi nakasuluka pasi kutola ulunda wakuwi, Ntambu iraa ayi muntu yoseri pakawera kuisi na kawuya ukaya.
In that day, he who will be on the housetop and his goods in the house, let him not go down to take them away. Let him who is in the field likewise not turn back.
32 Mmuholi mdala gwa Lutu!
Remember Lot’s wife!
33 Yoseri yakafira kugaponiziya makaliru gakuwi, hakagamiziyi na yoseri yakagamiziya makaliru gakuwi hakagalopoziyi.
Whoever seeks to save his life loses it, but whoever loses his life preserves it.
34 Nukugambirani, pashiru palii wantu wawili hawaweri wankugonja mushitanda shimuwera, yumu hawamtoli na yumonga hawamleki.
I tell you, in that night there will be two people in one bed. One will be taken and the other will be left.
35 Wadala wawili hawaweri wankusaga usaka pamuwera, yumu hawamtoli na yumonga hawamleki.”
There will be two grinding grain together. One will be taken and the other will be left.”
36 Wantu wawili hawaweri wankutenda lihengu mulirambu, yumu hawamtoli na yumonga hawamleki
37 wantumini wamkosiyiti Yesu, “Koshi Mtuwa?” Yesu kawankula, “Papawera na lintumbi, kunguru ndo hawaliwoni pamuwera.”
They, answering, asked him, “Where, Lord?” He said to them, “Where the body is, there the vultures will also be gathered together.”
