Ruka 17
1 Jesu akati kuvadzidzi vake, “Zvinhu zvinoita kuti vanhu vatadze zvinototi zviuye, asi ane nhamo munhu uyo anouya nazvo.
And he said to his disciples, It is necessary for causes of trouble to come about, but unhappy is he by whom they come.
2 Zvaiva nani kwaari kuti guyo risungirirwe pamutsipa wake agokandwa mugungwa pano kuti atadzise mumwe wavaduku ava.
It would be well for him if a great stone was put round his neck and he was dropped into the sea, before he made trouble for any of these little ones.
3 Saka zvingwarirei. “Kana hama yako ichitadza, itsiure, uye kana akatendeuka, umuregerere.
Give attention to yourselves: if your brother does wrong, say a sharp word to him; and if he has sorrow for his sin, let him have forgiveness.
4 Kana akakutadzira kanomwe pazuva, uye akadzoka kwauri kanomwe achiti, ‘Ndatendeuka,’ muregerere.”
And if he does you wrong seven times in a day, and seven times comes to you and says, I have regret for what I have done; let him have forgiveness.
5 Vapostori vakati kuna She, “Tiwedzereiwo kutenda kwedu!”
And the twelve said to the Lord, Make our faith greater.
6 Iye akati, “Kana muno kutenda kuduku duku setsanga yemasitadhi, munogona kuti kumuti womuonde uyu, ‘Dzurwa usimwe mugungwa,’ uye uchakuteererai.
And the Lord said, If your faith was only as great as a grain of mustard seed, you might say to this tree, Be rooted up and planted in the sea; and it would be done.
7 “Ngatitii mumwe wenyu anga aine muranda anorima kana kuti anofudza makwai. Angati here kumuranda paanopinda achibva kumunda, ‘Uya pano iye zvino ugare pasi udye’?
But which of you, having a servant who is ploughing or keeping sheep, will say to him, when he comes in from the field, Come now and be seated and have a meal,
8 Ko, haangati here, ‘Ndigadzirire chokudya changu, uzvigadzirire iwe ugondimirira pandinenge ndichidya nokunwa; shure kwaizvozvo iwe ungazodya hako nokunwa’?
Will he not say, Get a meal for me, and make yourself ready and see to my needs till I have had my food and drink; and after that you may have yours?
9 Ko, angavonga muranda nokuda kwokuti akaita zvaakaudzwa here?
Does he give praise to the servant because he did what was ordered?
10 Saka nemiwo, pamunenge maita zvose zvamakaudzwa kuti muite, munofanira kuti, ‘Tiri varanda vasina maturo; tangoita zvatanga tichifanira kuita.’”
In the same way, when you have done all the things which are given you to do, say, There is no profit in us, for we have only done what we were ordered to do.
11 Zvino ari munzira achienda kuJerusarema, Jesu akafamba achitevedza muganhu waiva pakati peSamaria neGarirea.
And it came about that when they were on the way to Jerusalem he went through Samaria and Galilee.
12 Paakanga opinda mumusha, varume gumi vaiva namaperembudzi vakasangana naye. Vakamira vari nechokure
And when he went into a certain small town he came across ten men who were lepers, and they, keeping themselves at a distance,
13 uye vakadanidzira nenzwi guru vachiti, “Jesu, Tenzi, tinzwireiwo ngoni!”
Said, in loud voices, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.
14 Akati achivaona, akati kwavari, “Endai munozviratidza kuvaprista.” Uye pavaienda, vakabva vanatswa.
And when he saw them he said, Go, and let the priests see you. And, while they were going, they were made clean.
15 Mumwe wavo akati aona kuti akanga aporeswa, akadzoka achirumbidza Mwari nenzwi guru.
And one of them, when he saw that he was clean, turning back, gave praise to God in a loud voice;
16 Akazviwisira patsoka dzaJesu akamuvonga. Uye akanga ari muSamaria.
And, falling down on his face at the feet of Jesus, he gave the credit to him; and he was a man of Samaria.
17 Jesu akati, “Ko, havasi vose gumi vakaporeswa here? Ko, vamwe vapfumbamwe varipi?
And Jesus said, Were there not ten men who were made clean? where are the nine?
18 Kwashayikwa mumwe woga adzoka akazorumbidza Mwari kunze kwouyu mutorwa here?”
Have not any of them come back to give glory to God, but only this one from a strange land?
19 Ipapo akati kwaari, “Simuka uende; kutenda kwako kwakuporesa.”
And he said to him, Get up, and go on your way; your faith has made you well.
20 Akati abvunzwa navaFarisi kuti umambo hwaMwari hwaizosvika riini, Jesu akapindura akati, “Umambo hwaMwari hahuuyi nokunyatsocherechedza kwenyu,
And when the Pharisees put questions to him about when the kingdom of God would come, he gave them an answer and said, The kingdom of God will not come through observation:
21 uye vanhu havangati, ‘Hohuno pano’ kana kuti ‘Uho uko,’ nokuti umambo hwaMwari huri mamuri.”
And men will not say, See, it is here! or, There! for the kingdom of God is among you.
22 Ipapo akati kuvadzidzi vake, “Nguva iri kuuya yamuchashuva kuona rimwe ramazuva oMwanakomana woMunhu, asi hamuzorioni.
And he said to his disciples, The time will come when you will have a great desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, but you will not see it.
23 Vanhu vachati kwamuri, ‘Hoyo uko!’ kana kuti ‘Houno pano!’ Musamhanya muchivatevera.
And if they say to you, See, it is there! or, It is here! do not go away, or go after them.
24 Nokuti semheni inopenya ichivhenekera muchadenga ichibva kuno rumwe rutivi ichienda kuno rumwe rutivi, ndizvo zvichaita Mwanakomana woMunhu pazuva rake.
For as in a thunderstorm the bright light is seen from one end of the sky to the other, so will the Son of man be when his time comes.
25 Asi anofanira kutanga kumbotambudzika zvikuru uye acharambwa norudzi urwu.
But first, he will have to undergo much and be put on one side by this generation.
26 “Sezvazvakanga zvakaita pamazuva aNoa, ndizvo zvazvichaitawo mumazuva oMwanakomana woMunhu.
And as it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the day of the Son of man.
27 Vanhu vaidya, vachinwa, vachiwana nokuwaniswa kusvikira zuva rakapinda Noa muareka. Ipapo mafashamu akasvika akavaparadza vose.
They were feasting and taking wives and getting married, till the day of the overflowing of the waters, when Noah went into the ark, and they all came to destruction.
28 “Zvakanga zvakadarowo pamazuva aRoti. Vanhu vakanga vachidya nokunwa, vachitonga nokutongesa, vachidyara nokuvaka.
In the same way, in the days of Lot; they were feasting and trading, they were planting and building;
29 Asi pazuva rakabuda Roti muSodhomu, moto nesuriferi zvakanaya, zvichibva kudenga zvikavaparadza vose.
But on the day when Lot went out of Sodom, fire came down from heaven and destruction came on them all.
30 “Zvichaita saizvozvo pazuva iro Mwanakomana woMunhu acharatidzwa.
So will it be in the day of the revelation of the Son of man.
31 Pazuva iro hakuna munhu ari pamusoro pedenga remba, ane nhumbi dzake mukati memba, anofanira kuburuka kuti andodzitora. Saizvozvowo, hakuna munhu ari kumunda achadzokera chinhu chero chipi zvacho.
On that day, if anyone is on the roof of the house, and his goods are in the house, let him not go down to take them away; and let him who is in the field not go back to his house.
32 Rangarirai mukadzi waRoti!
Keep in mind Lot's wife.
33 Ani naani anoedza kuchengetedza upenyu hwake acharasikirwa nahwo, uye ani naani anorasikirwa noupenyu hwake achahuponesa.
If anyone makes an attempt to keep his life, it will be taken from him, but if anyone gives up his life, he will keep it.
34 Ndinoti kwamuri, pazuva iro vanhu vaviri vachange vari pamubhedha mumwe; mumwe achatorwa mumwe achisiyiwa.
I say to you, In that night there will be two men sleeping in one bed, and one will be taken away and the other let go.
35 Vakadzi vaviri vachange vachikuya zviyo pamwe chete; mumwe achatorwa uye mumwe achasiyiwa.
Two women will be crushing grain together; one will be taken away and the other let go.
36 Varume vachange vari mumunda, mumwe achatorwa uye mumwe achasiyiwa.”
37 Vakamubvunza vakati, “Kupiko Ishe?” Akapindura akati, “Pano mutumbi, ndipo panoungana magora.”
And they, answering him, said, Where, Lord? And he said to them, Where the body is, there will the eagles come together.
