Luka 21
1 Yesu kalola wega zoseri, kawawona wantu walunda pawatula mafupu gawu mulisanduku lya luhanja Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu,
He looked up, and saw the rich people who were putting their gifts into the treasury.
2 vira virii kamwoniti mkenja muhushu nentu pakatula senti ndidika mbili zya mpiya.
He saw a certain poor widow casting in two small bronze coins.
3 Kawagambira, “Nukugambirani kuwera nakaka mkenja muhushu ayu kalaviya zivuwa kuliku woseri wamonga.
He said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow put in more than all of them,
4 Wamonga walaviyiti mafupu gawu galii gagaziditi muulunda wawu, kumbiti muhushu ayu kwa uhushu wakuwi kalaviya vyoseri vyakalitumbiriti.”
for all these put in gifts for God from their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, put in all that she had to live on.”
5 Wantumini wamu waweriti wankutakula kuusu Numba nkulu ya Mlungu, ntambu yawaherepeziya kwa mabuhi gaherepa na mafupu wagalaviyiti kwa Mlungu. Yesu kawagambira,
As some were talking about the temple and how it was decorated with beautiful stones and gifts, he said,
6 “Goseri aga gamgalola, shipindi shankwiza peni hapeni lisigali libuwi limu pahala pakuwi, kila shintu hashiharibiwi.”
“As for these things which you see, the days will come, in which there will not be left here one stone on another that will not be thrown down.”
7 Womberi wamkosiyiti, “mfunda, visoweru avi havilawili ndii? Hashilawiri shishi kutulanguziya kuwera shipindi ashi shankwiza?”
They asked him, “Teacher, so when will these things be? What is the sign that these things are about to happen?”
8 Yesu kawankula, “Mliloli weri, nawawazyangani. Wantu wavuwa hawizi pawatakula shisoweru shangu, hawizi na kulonga, ‘Neni ndo mweni!’ Na ‘Shipindi hashizi!’ Kumbiti namuwafata.
He said, “Watch out that you don’t get led astray, for many will come in my name, saying, ‘Ena Na [I AM (the Living God)], I am he,’ and, ‘The time is at hand.’ Therefore don’t follow them.
9 Namtira pampikanira ngondu na ndewu, vintu vyoseri avi mpaka vilawiri kwanja, kumbiti upeleru wa vitwatira avi wankali.”
When you hear of wars and disturbances, don’t be terrified, for these things must happen first, but the end won’t come immediately.”
10 Yesu kendereya kutakula, “Isi yimu hailikomangi na isi yimonga, na ufalumi umu haulikomi na ufalumi umonga.
Then he said to them, “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.
11 Hakuweri na malendemeru makulu ga isi na hakuweri na njala na ulweri wa tawuni pahala poseri, hakuweri na vitwatira vya kutiliziya na lilangaliru likulu kulawa kuliyera.
There will be great earthquakes, famines, and plagues in various places. There will be terrors and great signs from heaven.
12 Pamberi pagalawira goseri aga, hawawabati na kuwatabisiya na hawawajegeni munumba za Mlungu na kuwatula muvibetubetu, hawawajegeni kulongolu kwa wafalumi na wakulu toziya munamini neni.
But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you and will persecute you, delivering you up to synagogues and prisons, bringing you before kings and governors for my name’s sake.
13 Ayi hayiweri lupenyu lwenu kuvibwera visoweru viwagira.
It will turn out as a testimony for you.
14 Kumbiti muvimani mumyoyu mwenu, namlihola ntambu ya kujiteteya,
Settle it therefore in your hearts not to meditate beforehand how to answer,
15 toziya Namweni neni hanuwapanani mwenga lulimi na luhala vyeni wangondu wenu woseri hapeni wawezi kusindana naga na kugalema gamtakula.
for I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries will not be able to withstand or to contradict.
16 Hagugalambukwi na mawu na tati gwaku, na walongu waku, na waganja waku, na wamonga pakati penu hawawalagi.
You will be handed over even by parents, brothers, relatives, and friends. They will cause some of you to be put to death.
17 Wantu woseri hawawakalalirani mwenga toziya ya litawu lyaneni.
You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake.
18 Kumbiti hapeni luagamili ata luvili lumu mumituwi mwenu.
And not a hair of your head will perish.
19 Muweri pamgangamala mumoyu, hamliponiziyi weni.
“By your endurance you will win your lives.
20 “Pamwona Yerusalemu guzyengetwa na wangondu, su hamvimani kuwera shipindi shisoka peni isi ayi hayiharabisiwi.
“But when you see Jerusalem [City of peace] surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is at hand.
21 Woseri yawalikala Muyudeya watugili mulugongu, woseri yawawera mulushi wawuki, na woseri yawawera mumalambu nawawuya mulushi.
Then let those who are in Judea [Praise] flee to the mountains. Let those who are in the middle of her depart. Let those who are in the country not enter therein.
22 Toziya mashaka aga hagaweri ‘Mashaka ga kutoza,’ kulanguziya koseri kwakulembitwi mumalembu Mananagala gatimii.
For these are days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
23 Shondi shondi wamawu yawawera na yinda na walii yawanoniziya mumashaka galii! Toziya hakuweri na malweri gavuwa muisi, na utoza wa Mlungu hawuwayizili wantu awa.
Woe to those who are pregnant and to those who nurse infants in those days! For there will be great distress in the land, and wrath to this people.
24 Wamonga hawawalagi kwa upanga, na wamonga hawawatuli muvibetubetu muisi zoseri, na hawawatoli lopola mumaisi goseri na Yerusalemu hayitimbwi na wantu yawamumana ndiri Mlungu mpaka shipindi shawu pashimalilika.
They will fall by the edge of the sword, and will be led captive into all the nations. Jerusalem [City of peace] will be trampled down by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.
25 “Hakuweri na lilangaliru mumshenji, na mulyezi, na muntondu. Pasipanu wantu woseri yawaweriti muisi zoseri hawaweri na uhushu, lyoga lya kulishera kwa mtukuliru gwa makupala ga bahari na mihenyuhenyu yakuwi.
There will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars; and on the earth anxiety of nations, in perplexity for the roaring of the sea and the waves;
26 Wantu pawafuwa myoyu kwa lyoga, pawalola vitwatira vyeni havilawili pasipanu, makakala ga kumpindi hagatikinyiki.
men fainting for fear, and for expectation of the things which are coming on the world: for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
27 Shipindi shilii Mwana gwa Muntu hakalawili, pakiza mumawingu pakawera na makakala pamuwera na ukwisa mkulu.
Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
28 Vintu avi pavyanja kulawira, mkalamuki na mnyasuli mituwi yenu kumpindi toziya ulopoziwu wenu wapakwegera.”
But when these things begin to happen, look up, and lift up your heads, because your redemption is near.”
29 Yesu kawagambiriti mfanu agu, “Mguloli mtera gwa mkuyu na mitera yamonga yoseri.
He told them a parable. “See the fig tree, and all the trees.
30 Pamuwoniti mihamba yankwanja kumera, muvimana kuwera shipindi sha kutowa vula shapakwegera.
When they are already budding, you see it and know by your own selves that the summer is already near.
31 Ntambu ira ayi, pamwona vitwatira avi vyankulawira, muvimani handa Ufalumi wa Mlungu wapakwegera.
Even so you also, when you see these things happening, know that God’s Kingdom is near.
32 “Mliholi kuwera vintu vyoseri havilawili huti pamberi pa wantu woseri yawalikala vinu kuhowa.
Most certainly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all things are accomplished.
33 Kumpindi na pasi panu hazipiti, kumbiti visoweru vyangu hapeni vipiti.
Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will by no means pass away.
34 “Mliloleri weri! Namuwera vyambojola bojola, na lukologelu na lyaliya, ama pamlilola weri ndiri lishaka lilii halikwizireni vumu hera,
“So be careful, or your hearts will be loaded down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that day will come on you suddenly.
35 gambira mgomiziwu. Toziya haguwayizili kwa wantu woseri yawalikala pahala poseri pasi panu.
For it will come like a snare on all those who dwell on the surface of all the earth.
36 Mwenga mulikali masu na mumluwi Mlungu mashaka goseri su mpati makakala ga kugenda weri muvitwatira vyoseri vyeni ndo havilawili na kugoloka kulongolu kwa Mwana gwa Muntu.”
Therefore be watchful all the time, praying that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will happen, and to stand before the Son of Man.”
37 Mashaka goseri paliwala, Yesu kaweriti kankufunda Mnumba nkulu ya Mlungu, na pamihi kaweriti kankugenda kulikala mulugongu lwa Mizeyituni.
Every day Yeshua [Salvation] was teaching in the temple, and every night he would go out and spend the night on the mountain that is called Olivet.
38 Kila pamandawila wantu woseri wagenditi Kunumba nkulu ya Mlungu kumpikinira.
All the people came early in the morning to him in the temple to hear him.
