Ruka 10
1 Shure kwezvinhu izvi, Ishe akagadza vamwe makumi manomwewo, akavatuma vaviri vaviri pamberi pechiso chake muguta rimwe nerimwe nenzvimbo imwe neimwe iye kwaakange achizoenda.
After these things the Lord chose seventy others also, and sent them out two by two before His face, into every place and city, where He was about to come.
2 Naizvozvo wakati kwavari: Goho zvirokwazvo iguru, asi vashandi vashoma. Naizvozvo kumbirai Ishe wegoho kuti abudisire vashandi pagoho rake.
And He said to them, The harvest is indeed great, but the laborers are few: therefore pray you the Lord of the harvest, that He may send forth laborers into His harvest.
3 Endai; tarirai, ini ndinokutumai semakwayana pakati pemapumhi.
Go: behold, I send you forth as lambs in the midst of wolves.
4 Musatakura chikwama, kana nhava, kana manyatera; uye musakwazisa munhu panzira.
Take neither purse, nor valise, nor sandals: salute no one by the way.
5 Zvino paimba ipi neipi yamunopinda, tangai kuti: Rugare kuimba ino.
Into whatsoever house you may enter, first say, Peace be unto this house.
6 Uye kana mwanakomana werugare ari ipapo, rugare rwenyu ruchazorora pamusoro payo; kana zvisakadaro, ruchadzokera kwamuri.
And if the son of peace may be there, your peace shall rest upon it: but if not, it shall return unto you.
7 Garai muimba iyo, muchidya nekunwa zvinobva kwavari; nokuti mushandi wakafanirwa nemubairo wake; musapota-pota nedzimba.
Abide in the same house, eating and drinking those things which are with them: for the laborer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.
8 Muguta ripi neripi mamunopinda vakakugamuchirai, idyai zvinoiswa mberi kwenyu,
Into whatsoever city you may enter and they may receive you, eat those things which are placed by you:
9 muporese varwere varimo, muchiti kwavari: Ushe hwaMwari hwaswedera kwamuri.
and heal the sick who are in it, and say to them, The kingdom of God has come nigh unto you.
10 Asi muguta ripi neripi ramunopinda, vakasakugamuchirayi, budirai munzira dzaro, muti:
And into whatsoever city you may enter, and they may not receive you, having come out into the streets of the same, say,
11 Kunyange guruva reguta renyu rakatinamatira, tinorikuhumurira kwamuri; asi muzive chinhu ichi, kuti ushe hwaMwari hwaswedera kwamuri.
Even the dust from your city, that cleaveth to our feet, do we wipe off against you: but know this, that the kingdom of God is at hand.
12 Asi ndinoti kwamuri: Zvichava nani kuSodhoma nezuva iro, kupfuura guta iro.
For I say unto you, that it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that city.
13 Une nhamo, Korazini! Une nhamo, Bhetisaidha! Nokuti dai akaitwa muTire neSidhoni mabasa esimba akaitwa mamuri, vangadai vatendeuka kare, vakagara vakapfeka masaga nedota.
Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works which were wrought in you had been in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting down in sackcloth and ashes.
14 Asi zvichava nani kuTire neSidhoni pakutongwa, kupfuura imwi.
Moreover it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you.
And thou, Capernaum, art thou not exalted up to heaven? thou shalt be cast down to Hades. (Hadēs g86)
16 Anokunzwai imwi anondinzwa ini; neanokurambai imwi anondiramba ini; neanondiramba ini anomuramba wakandituma.
He that heareth you heareth me; he that rejecteth you rejecteth me; and he that rejecteth me rejecteth Him that sent me.
17 Vanemakumi manomwe vakadzoka nemufaro, vachiti: Ishe, nemadhimoni anozviisa pasi pedu muzita renyu.
And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subordinated to us in thy name.
18 Zvino akati kwavari: Ndakaona Satani semheni achiwa achibva kudenga.
And He said to them, I saw Satan having fallen as the lightning from heaven.
19 Tarirai, ndinopa kwamuri simba rekutsika pamusoro penyoka nezvinyavada, nepamusoro pesimba rese remuvengi; hakuna chinhu chingatongokukuvadzai.
Behold I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing shall hurt you.
20 Asi musafara nechinhu ichi kuti mweya inozviisa pasi penyu; asi zvikuru mufare kuti mazita enyu akanyorwa kumatenga.
Moreover do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rejoice that your names are written in the heavens.
21 Neawa iro Jesu wakafara mumweya, akati: Ndinokuvongai, Baba, Ishe wekudenga nenyika, kuti makavanza zvinhu izvi kune vakachenjera nevanonzwisisa, mukazvizarurira vacheche; hongu, Baba, nokuti saizvozvo zvakava zvakanaka pamberi penyu.
At the same hour He rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, I praise thee, O Father, Lord of the heaven and the earth, because thou hast hidden these things from the wise and prudent, and revealed them to babes: yea, Father, because it was thus pleasing in thy sight.
22 Zvese zvakakumikidzwa kwandiri naBaba vangu; uye hakuna anoziva kuti Mwanakomana ndiani, kunze kwaBaba, uye kuti Baba ndiani, kunze kweMwanakomana, uye ani nani Mwanakomana waanoda kuzarurira.
And turning to His disciples, He said, All things have been delivered to me by my Father: and no one knoweth who the Son is, except the Father; and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whom He may wish to reveal Him.
23 Zvino akatendeukira kuvadzidzi vari vega akati: Akaropafadzwa meso anoona zvamunoona.
And turning to His disciples, privately He said, Happy are your eyes, seeing those things which you see.
24 Nokuti ndinoti kwamuri: Vaporofita vazhinji nemadzimambo vaishuva kuona zvinhu zvamunoona imwi, asi havana kuzviona, nekunzwa zvinhu zvamunonzwa, asi havana kuzvinzwa.
For I say unto you, that many kings and prophets desired to see those things which you see, and saw them not; and to hear those things which you hear, and heard them not.
25 Zvino tarira, imwe nyanzvi yemutemo yakasimuka, ichimuidza, ichiti: Mudzidzisi, ndingaitei kuti ndigare nhaka yeupenyu husingaperi? (aiōnios g166)
And behold, a certain lawyer stood up tempting Him, saying, Teacher, having done what shall I inherit eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
26 Ndokuti kwaari: Pamurairo pakanyorwei? Unoverenga sei?
He said to him, What has been written in the law? how do you read it?
27 Uye achipindura, akati: Ude Ishe Mwari wako, nemoyo wako wese, uye nemweya wako wese, uye nesimba rako rese, uye nefungwa dzako dzese; neumwe wako sezvaunozvida iwe.
And he responding said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with divine love from all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself.
28 Akati kwaari: Wapindura zvakarurama; ita izvi, ugorarama.
And He said to him, You answered correctly: do this, and you shall live.
29 Iye, achida kuzviruramisa, wakati kuna Jesu: Zvino ndiani umwe wangu?
But he, wishing to justify himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbor?
30 Jesu akapindura akati: Umwe munhu wakaburuka kubva kuJerusarema achienda kuJeriko; akawira pakati pemakororo, akamukururawo akamupa mavanga akaenda, ndokusiya oda kufa.
Jesus responding said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho; and fell among thieves, who indeed having stripped him of his raiment, administered blows, went away, leaving him half dead.
31 Zvakangoitikawo kuti umwe mupristi wakange achiburuka nenzira iyo; akati achimuona, akapfuura neparutivi rwakapesa.
And by chance a certain priest came down that way: and seeing him, passed by on the other side.
32 Saizvozvowo muRevhi asvika panzvimbo iyo, akamuona, akapfuura neparutivi rwakapesa.
And likewise also a Levite, being at the place, coming and seeing, passed by on the other side.
33 Zvino umwe muSamaria, wakange achifamba wakasvika paaiva, akati achimuona akanzwa tsitsi,
And a certain Samaritan, on a journey, came near him: and seeing, had compassion on him,
34 akaswedera ndokupomba mavanga ake, achidira mafuta newaini; akamugadza pachipfuwo chake pachake, ndokumuisa kuimba yevafambi, ndokumuchengeta.
and having come to him, he bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine: and having mounted him on his own beast, carried him to a tavern, and cared for him.
35 Zvino pamangwana oenda, wakabudisa madhenario maviri akapa kumwene weimba, akati kwaari: Muchengete; uye zvese zvaunoshandisa kupfuura izvi, ini ndichakupazve, kana ndichidzoka.
And on the morrow, taking out two denaria, gave them to the host, and said, Care for him; and whatsoever you expend in addition, on my return, I will pay you.
36 Naizvozvo ndeupi wevatatu ava waunofunga kuti waiva umwe waiye wakawira pakati pemakororo?
Which one of these three seems to you to have been the neighbor of him who fell among the thieves?
37 Akati: Ndiye wakamuitira tsitsi. Ipapo Jesu akati kwaari: Enda, newe unoita saizvozvo.
And he said, The one having done mercy with him. And Jesus said to him, Go, thou, and do likewise.
38 Zvino zvakaitika pakufamba kwavo, kuti iye wakapinda mune umwe musha; umwe mukadzi wainzi Marita akamugamuchira mumba make.
And it came to pass while they were going round, He also came into a certain village: and a certain woman by name Martha received Him into her house.
39 Uye iye wakange ane munin'inawo wainzi Maria, wakagarawo pamakumbo aJesu, akanzwa shoko rake.
And there was a sister to her called Mary, who indeed sitting down at the feet of the Lord, continued to hear his word:
40 Asi Marita wakange akabatikana kwazvo nekushanda kukuru, akaswedera akati: Ishe, hamuna hanya here nokuti munin'ina wangu wandisiya ndega ndichishanda? Naizvozvo muudzei kuti andibatsire.
and Martha was very busy about much serving. And standing over Him, she said, Lord, is there no care to thee that my sister has left me to serve alone? then say to her that she must assist me.
41 Jesu akapindura akati kwaari: Marita, Marita, unozvidya moyo nekutambudzika nezvinhu zvizhinji;
And the Lord responding said to her, Martha, Martha, you are solicitous and encumbered concerning many things:
42 asi chinhu chimwe chinodikanwa; asi Maria wasanangura mugove wakanaka, waasingazotorerwi.
but there is need of one thing: for Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken from her.
