Luke 8
1 Mme ka bofefo morago ga moo a etela metse le metsana ya Galalea go bolela go tla ga Bogosi jwa Modimo, mme a tsamaya le barutwa ba gagwe ba ba lesome le bobedi.
And it came to pass afterward, that he went throughout every city and village, preaching and showing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God: and the twelve were with him,
2 Basadi bangwe ba tsamaya nae, ba o ntshitseng mewa e e maswe mo go bone kgotsa ba o ba fodisitseng; mo go bone go ne go le Marea Magatalena (Jesu o ne a ntshitse mewa e e maswe ele supa mo go ene).
And certain women, who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven demons,
3 Joana mosadi wa ga Chusa (Chusa e ne e le molaodi wa papadi ya ga Kgosi Herode a bile a le motlhokomedi wa ntlo ya segosi le dilwana tsa yone). Susana, le ba bangwe ba ba neng ba ntsha dikatso go otla Jesu le barutwa ba gagwe.
And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod’s steward, and Susanna, and many others, who ministered to him of their substance.
4 Ka letsatsi lengwe a neela boidiidi jwa batho ba ba neng ba phuthegile go tla go mo utlwa, setshwantsho se, fa ba bangwe ba bantsi ba sa ntse ba le mo tseleng ba tswa mo metseng e mengwe.
And when many people were gathered together, and had come to him out of every city, he spoke by a parable:
5 “Molemi o kile a tswela kwa tshimong ya gagwe go ya go jala peo. Ya re a gasa peo fa fatshe, nngwe ya yone ya wela mo tseleng mme ya gatakwa; mme dinonyane tsa e e ja ka e ne e le mo lobaleng.
A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.
6 Peo e nngwe ya wela mo mmunyaneng o go neng go ikadile letlapa ka fa tlase ga one. Peo ya simolola go gola, mme ka bonako ya swaba ya a swa ka ntlha ya go tlhoka longola.
And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture.
7 Peo e nngwe ya wela mo gare ga masitlwana, mme medi e mennye ya akofa ya hupela.
And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it.
8 E nngwe ya wela mo mmung o o molemo; peo e ya gola ya ungwa thobo ya selekanyo sa lekgolo go menagane go gaisa ka fa a neng a jetse ka teng.” (Ya re a a fa setshwantsho se a re, “Yo o nang le ditsebe a a utlwe.”)
And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bore fruit an hundredfold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
9 Baapostoloi ba gagwe ba mmotsa gore polelo e e rayang.
And his disciples asked him, saying, What doth this parable mean?
10 Mme a fetola a re, “Modimo o lo letleletse go itse tlhaloso ya ditshwantsho tse, gonne di bolela tiro e kgolo ya Bogosi jwa Modimo. Mme bontsintsi jo jwa batho bo utlwa mafoko mme ga ba tlhaloganye, fela jaaka baporofiti ba boletse.
And he said, To you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.
11 “Tlhaloso ya sone ke e: Peo ke molaetsa wa Modimo mo bathong.
Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
12 Tsela e e kwakwaletseng e peo nngwe e wetseng mo go yone e tshwantshiwa le dipelo tse di thata tsa batho ba ba utlwang mafoko a Modimo, mme diabolo a tle a utswe mafoko a kganele batho go dumela le go bolokwa.
Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.
13 Lefatshe le le maje le tshwantshiwa le ba ba itumelelang go reetsa dithero, mme ka mokgwa mongwe molaetsa tota o sa tsene mo go bone le gone ga o mele ebile ga o gole. Ba a itse gore molaetsa o o boammaaruri mme ba dumela ka lobakanyana fela; ere fa dipogiso di tla ba felelwe, ke kgatlhego.
They on the rock are they, who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, who for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.
14 Peo e e mo gare ga mitlwa e tshwantshiwa le batho ba ba dumelang mafoko a Modimo mme ba e reng morago tumelo ya bone e hupediwe ke matshwenyego le dikhumo le ditiro le maitumelo a botshelo. Mme jalo ga ba na nonofo ya go thusa ope go dumela Mafoko a a Molemo.
And that which fell among thorns are they, who, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.
15 “Mme mmu o o molemo o tshwantshiwa le batho ba ba ikanyegang ba ba pelo di siameng. Ba reetsa mafoko a Modimo ba a tshegetse mme ba a anamise ka bonya mo go ba bangwe.”
But that on the good ground are they, who in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.
16 [Ka nako e nngwe a botsa a re, ] “E mang yo o kileng a utlwalela mongwe yo e a reng a sena go tshuba lobone a lo khurumetse gore lo se ka lwa bonesa? Nnyaa! Dipone di bewa mo di ka bonwang teng.
No man, when he hath lighted a lamp, covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a lampstand, that they who enter in may see the light.
17 Se se supa gore ka letsatsi leo sengwe le sengwe [mo dipelong tsa batho] se tlaa leriwe mo leseding mme se supegediwe botlhe.
For nothing is secret, that shall not become evident; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come to light.
18 Jalo itlhokomeleng ka fa lo reetsang ka gone, gonne yo o nang le gone, o tlaa newa mo go tona; mme le fa e le mang yo o senang sepe, le e leng se o nang naso tota o tlaa se tseelwa.”
Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whoever hath, to him shall be given; and whoever hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he seemeth to have.
19 Mme ya re ka nako nngwe fa mmaagwe le bomonnawe ba tsile go mmona, ba seka ba tsena mo tlung e o neng a ruta mo go yone ka ntlha ya bontsintsi jwa batho.
Then came to him his mother and his brethren, and could not come near to him for the crowd.
20 E rile Jesu a utlwa fa ba eme kwa ntle ba batla go mmona,
And it was told to him by certain who said, Thy mother and thy brethren stand outside, desiring to see thee.
21 a re, “Mme le bonnake ke botlhe ba ba utlwang molaetsa wa Modimo ba bo ba o tshegetsa.”
And he answered and said to them, My mother and my brethren are these who hear the word of God, and do it.
22 Ka letsatsi lengwe mo lobakeng loo, fa ene le barutwa ba gagwe ba le kwa ntle mo mokorong, a ntsha mogopolo wa gore ba kgabaganyetse ka kwa ntlheng e nngwe ya lecha.
Now it came to pass on a certain day, that he went into a boat with his disciples: and he said to them, Let us go over to the other side of the lake. And they launched forth.
23 Mme ya re ba kgabaganya a rapama a thulamela, mme ya re a sa ntse a robetse ga tsoga matsubutsubu a phefo a a boitshegang a leka go kgaphela mokoro mo lewatleng. Mme ba ne ba le mo diphatseng tse di kgolo.
But as they sailed he fell asleep: and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filled with water, and were in jeopardy.
24 Mme ba taboga ba mo tsosa ba goa ba re, “Morena, Morena re a nwela!” Hong a bua le phefo a re, “Kgaotsa,” mme diphefo le makhubu a metse tsa khutla, gotlhe ga nna tidimalo.
And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we perish. Then he arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm.
25 Mme a ba botsa a re, “Tumelo ya lona e kae?” Mme ba bo ba tletse therego le go mmoifa ba raana ba re, “Monna yo ke mang, yo le e leng diphefo le makhubu a metse a mo utlwang?”
And he said to them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid marvelled, saying one to another, What manner of man is this! for he commandeth even the winds and water, and they obey him.
26 Mme ba goroga ka fa ntlheng e nngwe, mo lefatsheng la Bagerasena go lebagana le lecha la Galalea.
And they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is opposite Galilee.
27 Ya re a fologa mo mokorong monna yo o tswang mo motseng wa Gatara a tla go mo kgatlhantsha, monna yo o neng a tsenwe ke mewa e e maswe ka lobaka lo lo leele. A se na legae a bile a sa ikatega, a nna mo mabitleng mo gare ga diphupu.
And when he went forth to land, there met him out of the city a certain man, who had demons a long time, and wore no clothes, neither abode in any house, but in the tombs.
28 Ya re ka bonako fa a bona Jesu a gala a wela fa fatshe fa pele ga ga Jesu, a goa, a re, “O batla go dirang ka nna, Jesu, Morwa Modimo o o tlotlegang? Tsweetswee, ke a go rapela, o se ka wa ntlhokofatsa!”
When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God most high? I beseech thee, torment me not.
29 Gonne Jesu o ne a setse a laola mowa o o maswe gore o tswe mo go ene. Mowa o o maswe o ne o tle o laole monna yo mo e leng gore e ne e tle e re le fa a bofilwe ka dikeetane a kgaole mme a siele mo nageng, a laolwa ke mowa o o maswe gotlhelele.
( For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For often it had caught him: and he was kept bound with chains and in fetters; and he broke the bands, and was driven by the demon into the wilderness.)
30 Mme Jesu a botsa mowa oo maswe a re, “Leina la gago ke mang?” Mme wa fetola wa re, “Diketekete,” gonne o ne a tletse diketekete tsa mowa o o maswe!
And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? And he said, Legion: because many demons had entered into him.
31 Mme ya mo kopa gore a se ka a e laolela go tsena mo lehuting le le senang bolekanngo. (Abyssos g12)
And they besought him that he would not command them to go out into the deep. (Abyssos g12)
32 Serapa sa dikolobe sa bo se fula gautshwane mo mhapheng wa thaba mme mewa e e maswe ya mo kopa gore a e letle go tsena mo dikolobeng. Mme Jesu a e letla.
And there was there an herd of many swine feeding on the mountain: and they besought him that he would allow them to enter into them. And he permitted them.
33 Mme ya tswa mo monneng ya tsena mo dikolobeng, mme ka bonako serapa sotlhe sa kgokologa thaba sa wela mo teng ga lecha kwa tlase, mo di neng tsa nwela teng tsotlhe.
Then the demons went out of the man, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake, and were choked.
34 Hong badisa ba dikolobe ba sianela kwa motsing o o gaufi, ba gasa mafoko fa ba ntse ba siana.
When they that fed them saw what was done, they fled, and went and told it in the city and in the country.
35 Ka bofefo bontsintsi jwa batho jwa tla go iponela ka bobone se se diragetseng mme ba bona monna yo o neng a tsenwe ke mowa o o maswe a ntse ka tidimalo fa dinaong tsa ga Jesu, a apere a bile a ikutlwa sentle. Mme bontsintsi jwa batho botlhe ba tshoga thata.
Then they went out to see what was done; and came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the demons had departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.
36 Hong ba ba neng ba bone selo se se diragala ba bolela ka fa monna yo o neng a tsenwe ke mewa e e maswe a fodisitsweng ka teng.
They also who saw it told them by what means he that was possessed by the demons was healed.
37 Mme batho botlhe ba kopa Jesu gore a tsamaye a ba tlogele (gonne therego e kgolo ya letshogo e ne ya ba wela). Mme a boela kwa mokorong a tsamaya, a kgabaganyetsa gape ka kwa ntlheng e nngwe ya lecha.
Then the whole multitude of the country of the surrounding region of the Gadarenes besought him to depart from them; for they were seized with great fear: and he went into the boat, and returned back again.
38 Monna yo o neng a tsenwe ke mewa e e maswe a kopa go tsamaya le ene, mme Jesu a gana.
Now the man out of whom the demons had departed besought him that he might be with him: but Jesus sent him away, saying,
39 A mo raya a re, “Boela kwa go ba ntlo ya gago, o ba bolelele selo se sentle se Modimo o se go diretseng.” O ne a tsamaya le motse otlhe a bolelela mongwe le mongwe kaga kgakgamatso e kgolo ya ga Jesu.
Return to thy own house, and show what great things God hath done to thee. And he went away, and proclaimed throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done to him.
40 Ka fa ntlheng e nngwe ya lecha bontsintsi jwa batho jwa mo amogela ka botlalo, gonne ba ne ba ntse ba mo lebeletse.
And it came to pass, that, when Jesus had returned, the people gladly received him: for they were all waiting for him.
41 Mme jaanong monna yo o neng a bidiwa Jairo, moeteledipele wa ntlo ya thuto ya Sejuta, a tla a wela fa dinaong tsa ga Jesu a mo kopa gore a ye nae kwa ga gagwe,
And, behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue: and he fell down at the feet of Jesus, and besought him that he would come into his house:
42 gonne ngwana wa gagwe yo o esi o ne a swa, morweetsana wa dingwaga tse di lesome le bobedi. Mme Jesu a tsamaya nae, ba sutlhelela ka bothata mo gare ga batho.
For he had one daughter only, about twelve years of age, and she lay dying. But as he was going the people thronged him.
43 Ya re ba ntse ba tsamaya mosadi yo o neng a batla phodiso a tla kwa morago a ama Jesu, gonne o ne a dutlile madi ka bonya selekanyo sa dingwaga di le lesome le bobedi, mme a sa bone kalafi (ntswa a sentse sengwe le sengwe se a neng a na naso mo dingakeng), mme nako e o neng a ama ntlha ya seaparo sa ga Jesu, madi a ema.
And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, who had spent all her living upon physicians, neither could be healed by any,
Came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediately her issue of blood stopped.
45 Mme Jesu a botsa a re, “Ke mang yo o nkamileng?” Mme mongwe le mongwe a itatola, mme Petere a re, “Morena, bontsintsi bo go dikaganyeditse…”
And Jesus said, Who touched me? When all denied, Peter and they that were with him said, Master, the multitude throng thee and press thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?
46 Mme Jesu a mo raya a re, “Nnyaa, e ne e le mongwe fela yo o nkamileng ka bomo, gonne ke utlwile nonofo ya phodiso e tswa mo go nna.”
And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive that power hath gone out of me.
47 Mme ya re mosadi a lemoga gore Jesu o a itse, a simolola go roroma a wela fa fatshe ka mangole fa pele ga gagwe a mmolelela go re o ne a mo amelang le gore jaanong o fodile.
And when the woman saw that she was not hid, she came trembling, and falling down before him, she declared to him before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately.
48 Hong Jesu a mo raya a re, “Morwadiaka, tumelo ya gago e go fodisitse. Tsamaya ka kagiso.”
And he said to her, Daughter, be of good comfort: thy faith hath made thee well; go in peace.
49 E rile a sa ntse a bua le ene, morongwa a goroga a tswa kwa lapeng la ga Jairo ka mafoko a a reng ngwanyana o sule. A raya rraagwe ngwana a re, “O sule, ga go thuse go tshwenya Moruti jaanong.”
While he was yet speaking, there cometh one from the house of the ruler of the synagogue, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Master.
50 Mme e rile fa Jesu a utlwalela se se diragetseng, a raya rraagwe ngwana a re, “Se boife! Ikanye nna fela, ngwana o tla siama.”
But when Jesus heard it, he answered him, saying, Fear not: believe only, and she shall be made well.
51 Ya re ba goroga kwa tlung Jesu a se ka a letla ope go tsena mo tlung fa e se Petere, Jakobe le Johane le batsadi ba morweetsana.
And when he came into the house, he allowed no man to go in, except Peter, and James, and John, and the father and the mother of the maiden.
52 Lelapa le ne le tletse batho ba ba hutsafetseng, mme a re, “Lesang go lela! Ga a a swa; o robetse fela!”
And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth.
53 Se sa tlisa tshotlo le setshego, gonne ba ne ba itse botlhe gore o sule.
And they laughed at him, knowing that she was dead.
54 Hong a mo tshwara ka seatla a mmitsa a re, “Tsoga morweetsana.”
And he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and called, saying, Maid, arise.
55 Mme ka yone nako eo a rula a nanoga! A ba raya a re, “Mo neeng sengwe a je!”
And her spirit came again, and she arose immediately: and he commanded to give her something to eat.
56 Batsadi ba gagwe ba ne ba itumela thata. Mme Jesu a ba laya gore ba seka ba bolelela ope kaga se se diragetseng.
And her parents were astonished: but he charged them that they should tell no man what was done.
