Ruka 4
1 Jesu, azere noMweya Mutsvene, akadzoka kubva paJorodhani akatungamirirwa noMweya mugwenga,
Then Jesus, being full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan River, and was led by the Spirit in the wilderness,
2 umo maakaedzwa naSatani kwamazuva makumi mana. Haana chaakadya pamazuva iwayo, uye pakupera kwamazuva iwayo akanzwa nzara.
where for forty days he was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and at the end of that time he was hungry.
3 Satani akati kwaari, “Kana iwe uri mwanakomana waMwari, rayira dombo iri kuti rive chingwa.”
The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.”
4 Jesu akapindura akati, “Kwakanyorwa kuchinzi, ‘Munhu haararami nechingwa bedzi, asi neshoko rimwe nerimwe rinobuda mumuromo maMwari.’”
Jesus answered him, “It is written, 'Man does not live on bread alone.'”
5 Satani akamutungamirira kunzvimbo yakakwirira uye akamuratidza munguva diki diki umambo hwose hwenyika.
Then the devil led Jesus up and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in an instant of time.
6 Akati kwaari, “Ndichakupa simba rahwo rose nokubwinya kwahwo, nokuti ndakahupiwa, uye ini ndinogona kuhupa kuna ani zvake wandinoda.
The devil said to him, “I will give to you all this authority and all their splendor, for they have been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want.
7 Saka kana ukandinamata, huchava hwako hwose.”
So then, if you will bow down and worship me, it will be yours.”
8 Jesu akapindura akati, “Kwakanyorwa kuchinzi, ‘Namata Ishe Mwari wako umushumire iye oga.’”
But Jesus answered and said to him, “It is written, 'You will worship the Lord your God, and you will serve only him.'”
9 Satani akamutungamirira kuJerusarema akamuita kuti amire pachiruvi chetemberi. Akati kwaari, “Kana uri mwanakomana waMwari, zviwisire pasi uchibva pano.
Then the devil led Jesus to Jerusalem and put him on the very highest point of the temple building, and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down from here.
10 Nokuti kwakanyorwa kuchinzi: “‘Acharayira vatumwa vake pamusoro pako kuti vakuchengete kwazvo;
For it is written, 'He will give orders to his angels regarding you, to protect you,'
11 vachakusimudza mumaoko avo, kuti rutsoka rwako rurege kugumburwa padombo.’”
and, 'They will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.'”
12 Jesu akati, “Zvinonzi, ‘Usaedza Ishe Mwari wako.’”
Answering him, Jesus said, “It is said, 'Do not put the Lord your God to the test.'”
13 Satani akati apedza kuedza kwake kwose uku, akabva paari kusvikira pane imwe nguva.
When the devil had finished testing Jesus, he went away and left him until another time.
14 Jesu akadzokera kuGarirea musimba roMweya, uye shoko pamusoro pake rakapararira kumativi ose enyika.
Then Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and news about him spread throughout the entire surrounding region.
15 Akadzidzisa mumasinagoge avo, uye munhu wose akamurumbidza.
Then he began to teach in their synagogues and he was praised by all.
16 Akaenda kuNazareta, kwaakanga arerwa, uye nomusi weSabata akapinda musinagoge, setsika yake. Akasimuka kuti averenge.
He came into Nazareth, where he had been raised, and as was his custom, he entered the synagogue on the Sabbath day and he stood up to read aloud.
17 Rugwaro rwakapetwa rwaIsaya rwakapiwa kwaari. Pakurubhedhenura, akawana pakanga pakanyorwa kuti:
The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. He opened the scroll and found the place where it was written,
18 “Mweya waShe uri pamusoro pangu, nokuti akandizodza kuti ndiparidze vhangeri kuvarombo. Akandituma kuti ndiparidze rusununguko kuna vakasungwa uye kuti vasingaoni vaone, kuti ndisunungure vakamanikidzwa,
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he anointed me to tell good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom to the captives, and recovery of sight to the blind, to set free those who are oppressed,
19 kuti ndiparidze gore rakanaka raShe.”
to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor.”
20 Ipapo akapeta rugwaro, akarudzosera kumubati akagara pasi. Meso avanhu vose vakanga vari musinagoge akanga akati nde-e kwaari,
Then he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him.
21 uye akatanga nokuti kwavari, “Nhasi rugwaro urwu rwazadziswa munzeve dzenyu.”
He began to speak to them, “Today this scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.”
22 Vose vakataura zvakanaka pamusoro pake uye vakashamiswa namashoko akanaka akanga achibuda mumuromo make. Vakati, “Ko, uyu haazi mwanakomana waJosefa here?”
Everyone there spoke well of him and they were amazed at the gracious words which were coming out of his mouth, and they asked, “Is this not the son of Joseph?”
23 Jesu akati kwavari, “Zvirokwazvo muchataura tsumo iyi kwandiri muchiti: ‘Murapi, chizvirapa! Itawo muguta rako rino zvatakanzwa kuti wakaita muKapenaume.’”
He said to them, “Surely you will say this proverb to me, 'Doctor, heal yourself. Whatever we heard that you did in Capernaum, do the same in your hometown.'”
24 Akaenderera mberi achiti, “Ndinokuudzai chokwadi kuti hakuna muprofita anogamuchirwa muguta rake.
But he said, “Truly I say to you, no prophet is received in his own hometown.
25 Ndinokuudzai chokwadi kuti kwakanga kune chirikadzi zhinji muIsraeri panguva yaEria, panguva yakadzivirwa denga kwamakore matatu nehafu uye nzara huru ikavapo munyika yose.
But in truth I tell you that there were many widows in Israel during the time of Elijah, when the sky was shut up for three years and six months, and a great famine came upon all the land.
26 Asi Eria haana kutumwa kuno mumwe wavo, asi kuchirikadzi yeZerafati munyika yeSidhoni.
But Elijah was sent to none of them, but only to Zarephath in Sidon, to a widow living there.
27 Uye kwaiva navazhinji vaiva namaperembudzi panguva yaEria muprofita, asi hapana mumwe chete pakati pavo akanatswa kunze kwaNaamani muSiria.”
There were many lepers in Israel during the time of Elisha the prophet, but none of them were healed except Naaman the Syrian.”
28 Vanhu vose vakanga vari musinagoge vakatsamwa kwazvo pavakanzwa izvi.
All the people in the synagogue were filled with rage when they heard these things.
29 Vakasimuka, vakamubudisa muguta, vakamutora vakaenda naye kumucheto cheto kwechikomo chakanga chakavakirwa guta ravo, kuti vamusundidzire kumawere.
They got up, forced him out of the town, and led him to the cliff of the hill on which their town was built, so they might throw him off the cliff.
30 Asi akafamba napakati pemhomho yavanhu akaenda zvake.
But he passed through the middle of them and he went to another place.
31 Ipapo akaburuka zasi kuKapenaume, guta riri muGarirea, akatanga kudzidzisa vanhu nomusi weSabata.
Then he went down to Capernaum, a city in Galilee, and he began to teach them on the Sabbath.
32 Vakashamiswa nokudzidzisa kwake, nokuti shoko rake raiva nesimba.
They were astonished at his teaching, because he spoke with authority.
33 Musinagoge makanga muno murume akanga akabatwa nedhimoni, mweya wakaipa, uye akadanidzira nenzwi guru achiti,
Now in the synagogue there was a man who had the spirit of an unclean demon, and he cried out with a loud voice,
34 “A! Munodeiko kwatiri imi Jesu weNazareta? Ko, mauya kuzotiparadza kanhi? Ndinoziva kuti muri ani, muri Mutsvene waMwari!”
“Ah! What do we have to do with you, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!”
35 Jesu akaurayira achiti, “Nyarara! Buda maari!” Ipapo dhimoni rakaputsira murume uyu pasi pamberi pavo vose rikabuda risina kumukuvadza.
Jesus rebuked the demon, saying, “Do not speak! Come out of him!” When the demon had thrown the man down in the middle of them, he came out of him, and did not harm him in any way.
36 Vanhu vose vakashamiswa vakataurirana vachiti, “Kudzidzisa uku ndokupi? Anorayira mweya yakaipa nechikuriri uye nesimba, ichibva yabuda!”
All the people were very amazed, and they kept talking about it with one another. They said, “What kind of words are these? He commands the unclean spirits with authority and power and they come out.”
37 Mukurumbira wake wakapararira munzvimbo dzose dzakapoteredza.
So news about him began to spread into every part of the surrounding region.
38 Jesu akabva pasinagoge akaenda kumba kwaSimoni. Zvino mai vomukadzi waSimoni vairwara nefivha, uye vakakumbira Jesu kuti avabatsire.
Then Jesus left the synagogue and entered into the house of Simon. Now Simon's mother-in-law was suffering with a high fever, and they pleaded with him on her behalf.
39 Saka akakotamira kwavari akarayira fivha, ikabva pavari. Vakasimuka pakarepo vakatanga kuvashandira.
So he stood over her and rebuked the fever, and it left her. Immediately she got up and started serving them.
40 Zuva rakati rodoka, vanhu vakauya kuna Jesu navose vakanga vana marudzi akasiyana-siyana ezvirwere, akaisa maoko ake pamusoro pomumwe nomumwe wavo akavaporesa.
When the sun was setting, people brought to Jesus everyone who was sick with various kinds of diseases. He laid his hands on every one of them and healed them.
41 Pamusoro paizvozvo, madhimoni akabuda muvanhu vazhinji, achidanidzira achiti, “Ndiwe Mwanakomana waMwari!” Asi iye akaatsiura akasaatendera kuti ataure, nokuti iwo aiziva kuti ndiye Kristu.
Demons also came out from many of them, crying out and saying, “You are the Son of God!” Jesus rebuked the demons and would not let them speak, because they knew that he was the Christ.
42 Mangwanani-ngwanani, Jesu akaenda kunzvimbo yakanyarara ari oga. Vanhu vakanga vachimutsvaka uye vakati vamuwana paakanga ari, vakaedza kumudzivisa kuti asabva kwavari.
When daybreak came, he went out into a solitary place. Crowds of people were looking for him and came to the place where he was. They tried to keep him from going away from them.
43 Asi iye akati, “Ndinofanira kuparidza vhangeri roumambo hwaMwari kuna mamwewo maguta, nokuti ndizvo zvandakatumirwa.”
But he said to them, “I must also preach the good news about the kingdom of God to many other cities, because this is the reason I was sent here.”
44 Uye akaramba achiparidza mumasinagoge eJudhea.
Then he continued to preach in the synagogues throughout Judea.
