Malika 1
1 Imhola inofu ija Yesu kilisite, uMwana ghwa Nguluve.
A beginning of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, Son of God!
2 Ndavule lilembilue mukitabu kya m'bili u Isaya, “Lolagha nikunsuung'ha unyamhola ghwango akulongolele, ujuo ghwe ikuling'anisiagha isila.”
As it is written in the prophets —“Take note, I am sending my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.”
3 Ilisio lya muunhu nipilikika kuhuma ku lihaka liiti, munnosekesyaghe u Mutwa u Nguluve isila na kuling'hania muno kya ilila”.
“A voice calling out: ‘In the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord, make His paths straight!’”—
4 Pepano u Yohana u mwofughi akatengula ku pilisia ku lihaka, kuuti avaanhu valataghe inyivi save nakuwofughua.
John started baptizing in the wilderness and proclaiming a baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins.
5 Avaanhu kuhuma mulikaja lya Yerusalemu na mukighavo kyoni ikya Yudea, vakalutagha kwa Yohana, vakalatagha inyivi save.
Well, the whole Judean countryside and the Jerusalemites started going out to him, and were all being baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins.
6 UYohana akafwalagha umwenda ghuno ghutendilie nulwaghe lwa ngamia akipinyagha nulukova munsana, na kulia imhaasi nu vwuki.
Now John was clothed with camel's hair and with a leather belt around his waist; and he was eating locusts and wild honey.
7 Akapulisyagha akatisagha, kwale jumo ikwisa mumbele mulyune unya ngufu kukila une, juno naninoghile nambe kuva m'banda ughwa kuhudula utukova twa filatu twake.
And he was proclaiming: “After me my Superior is coming, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen.
8 Une nikuvofugha na malenga, neke umwene ikuvofughagha nu Mhepo u Mwimike.”
I indeed baptized you with water, but He will baptize you with Holy Spirit.”
9 Lulya humile mufighono ifio ulwakuuti u Yesu Kilisite alisile kuhuma ku Nazaret ija ku Galilaya, akaluka kwa Yohanani na kukwofugua nu mwene mukikogha ikya Yolidani.
Well it happened in those days that Jesus came from Natsareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
10 Ye ofughue unsiki ghughuo akahuma mumalenga, akavona uvulanga vudinduka, na ju Mhepo hwene ng'hunda akiika pa mwene.
And immediately upon coming up from the water He saw the heavens being torn open and the Spirit, like a dove, descending upon Him.
11 Pe ilisio likahuma kukyanya likati, “Uve veve mwanango mughanike. Nikukelile fijo uve.”
And a Voice came from the heavens: “You are my Son, the beloved, in whom I am well pleased!”
12 Kange nakalingi u Mhepo akamulongosia u Yesu kuluta kulihaka.
Immediately the Spirit impelled Him into the wilderness.
13 Akikalagha ifighono fijigho fine, agheluagha nu setano. Alyale nifikanhu ifnge ifya mulisoli, navanyamhola vakan'tangagha.
And He was there in the wilderness forty days being tested by Satan, and was with the wild animals; and the angels were ministering to Him.
14 pa mbele u Yohani ye akolilue, u Yesu akalika ku galilaya ipulisia imhola inofu ija Nguluve,
Now after John was put in prison, Jesus went into Galilee proclaiming the Gospel of the Kingdom of God,
15 akatisagha, “Unsiki ghwa ghufikile, kange uvu twa vwa Nguluve vulipipi. Mulataghe na kukwitika inyivi siinu mu livangili”.
and saying: “The time has been fulfilled and the Kingdom of God has approached. Repent and believe in the Gospel.”
16 Yeakilila mulubale mu lisumba lya Galilaya, akabona u Simoni nu ANdeleeya vitagha inyavu save mulisumba, ulwakuva valyale valovaji.
Then, as He was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew his brother, of Simon, casting a circular net onto the water, for they were fishermen.
17 U Yesu akavavula, “Mwise, mumbingililaghe, nikuvavika kuva valovi va vaanhu.”
So Jesus said to them: “Come, follow me and I will turn you into fishers of men.”
18 Unsiki ghughuo vakasileka inyavu save vakam'bingilila.
At once they left their nets and followed Him.
19 Unsiki u Yesu ye aghendile akasiki padabe, akam'bona u Yakobo mwawa ghwa Zebedayo nhu Yohani vanyalukolo vake; valyale mu ngalava vitenda inyavu.
And going on from there a little ways He saw James, son of Zebedee, and his brother John; they were in their boat mending their nets.
20 Voope akavakemela vakamuleka uvise ghwave u Sebedayi mun'akte mu ngalava palikimo navavombi vaake, vakam'bingilila.
Right away He called them, and leaving their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men they followed Him.
21 Ye vafikile ku Kapelaumu, ikighono kya Sabati, vakingila mu sinagogi na kuvulanisia.
Then they went into Capernaum. The very next Sabbath He entered the synagogue and began to teach.
22 Vakadegha imbulanisio ja mwene, ulwakuva alyale ivulanisia hwene muunhu nya vutavulilua nakavulanisiagha ndavule avalembi.
And they kept on being amazed at His teaching, because He was teaching them as one having authority, and not like the scribes.
23 Unsinki ghughuo umuunhu alyale mu sinagogi jivanave alyale nilipepo ililamafu, akakoola,
Now there was a man in their synagogue with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,
24 akati, “Tulini kikibikya kuvomba nuve, Yesu ghwa Nasaleti? Ghwisile kukututipula? Tukagule uliveni? Uve ulimwimike ghwemwene ghwa Nguluve!”
saying: “Hey, what do you want with us, Jesus Natsarene?! Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!”
25 U Yesu akalihwetukila ili pepo ililamafu akati, “kimihe huma mun'kate mwamuunhu uju!”
So Jesus rebuked him saying: “Shut up and get out of him!”
26 Nili pepo ililamafu likamughwisia pasi na kuhuma mun'kate mwamwene unsiki ghuno akakolala kulisio ilivaha.
The unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.
27 Avaanhu vooni vakadegha, kange vakaposesania vene, “Senyiki isi? Isi se mbulanisio imia inyavutavulilua? Idagha amapepo ghope ghikunda!”
And all were astounded, so that they questioned among themselves, saying: “What is this? What can this new doctrine be? Because with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him!”
28 Imhola sa Yesu sikakwila ng'hani ng'hani mukighavo kyoni ikya Galilaya.
So His fame spread directly into the whole surrounding area of Galilee.
29 Ng'haning'hani ye vahumile kunji mu sinagogi, vakingile mu nyumba ija Simoni nu ndeleeya Vyalyale u Yakobo nu Yohani.
Immediately upon exiting the synagogue they went into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30 Lino un'kwive ghwa Simoni alyaghonelile alyale n'tamu ghwa homa, ng'haning'ani vakam'bula u Yesu imhola sa mwene.
Simon's mother-in-law was lying down with a fever, so without delay they told Him about her.
31 Ye afikile, akan'kolo nuluvoko, akamwinula, ihoma jikabuka kwa mwene, akategula kukuvatengelela.
So He went and grasping her hand lifted her up; immediately the fever left her and she began to serve them.
32 vwilile unsiki ilijuva ye lisemile, vakamuletela avatamu vooni vano valyale vivavua, na vanya mapepo.
That evening, when the sun had set, they started bringing to Him all who were sick and the demonized.
33 Ilikaja lyoni valyakong'anile palikimo pa mulyango.
So much so that the whole town was gathered at the door,
34 Alya vasosisie vinga vano valyale ninamu avanyanamu sino sili papinga na pidagha amapepo minga, looli nakaghalekelagha amapepo ghajove ulwakuva ghalya manyile.
and He healed many who were sick with various diseases and cast out many demons; and He did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew He was Messiah.
35 Alyasimuike kujighe kuhenga, unsiki ghuno ghukakyale kuhenga; akaluta pamonga pasyefu pe akifunya kukuo.
Now very early, still night, He got up, slipped out, and went off to a solitary place, where He was praying.
36 U Simoni navanine vakatengula kuku mulonda.
Simon and those with him hunted for Him,
37 Ye vamwaghile vakam'bula vakati, “Avaanhu vooni vikukulonda”
and upon finding Him they said to Him, “Everyone is looking for you.”
38 Akavamula akati, “Tuvuke kufisina ifinge, mu fikaja fino fisyunguta, kwope nipilisie kange. Ulwakuva lwelino nisile apa.”
But He said to them: “Let us go to the neighboring towns, so I can preach there also; that is why I have come.”
39 Akaluta imbale sooni isa mukighavo ikya Galilaya, ipilisia mu masinagogi na kudaga amapepo.
He was constantly preaching in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and also casting out demons.
40 Unyabuba jumonga akisa kwa mwene. Akampelepesia; akafughama akati, “Nave ukelile kukumbalasia, nisuma umbalasie.
A leper came to Him, imploring Him, kneeling before Him and saying to Him, “If you want to, you are able to cleanse me.”
41 Vwimila vwa lusungu, u Yesu akagholosia uluvoko lwamwene aka mwabasia, akati, “Nikeela, Uvalale.”
So being moved with compassion, Jesus stretched out His hand and touched him, and said to him: “I want to; be cleansed!”
42 Unsiki ghughuo ibuba jikabuka mu m'bili ghwake, pe akavalasivua.
And when He said this, immediately the leprosy left him, and he was cleansed.
43 U Yesu akan'kaana akaati lutagha ng'hani ng'hani,
And He sent him away at once, sternly warning him,
44 Akam'bula akaati, “Nungam'bulaghe nambe muunhu imola isi, ulwene ulute ghuhufie kwa n'tekesi, uhumie ilitekelo ndavule alyalaghile u Moose, vuve vwolesi kuvanave.”
by saying: “See that you say nothing to anyone; but go, show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing the things that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”
45 Looli akaluta na pikum'bula kila muunhu na pipulisia ilisio kukila u Yesu lukampela u Yesu kukunua kukwingila mu makaja pa vuvalafu. Akavisagha kunji ku makaja kuvusyefu kuvusila vaanhu kwope ukuo avaanhu ifipugha fyooni kuhuma imbale soni vakalutagha kwa mwene.
However he went out and began to proclaim it freely, spreading the news, so that He was no longer able to enter a town openly, but remained outside in deserted places; yet they kept coming to Him from all over.
