Luke 13
1 Mu thangu yina ndambu yi batu bankaka baba vana, bankamba mambu momo mavioka momo matedi basi Ngalili bobo Pilatu kavondusu bu kasobikisamenga mawu ayi makaba mawu.
Now there were some present at the same time who told him about the Galilaye, whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.
2 Yesu wuba vutudila: —Benu lumbanza ti basi Ngalili bobo bamueni ziphasi ziphila yoyo mu diambu babedi bankua masumu viokila basi Ngalili bankaka e?
And he answered and said to them, "Do you think that these Galilaye were worse sinners than all the other Galilaye, because they suffered these things?
3 Buawu ko ndikulu kamba, vayi enati beno lukadi balula khadulubuna beno mamveno phila yimosi luela fuila.
I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way.
4 Voti kumi dinana di batu bobo babuilu banga ki Silowe, bu kibavonda, beno lumbanza ti bawu baluta ba batu bambimbi viokilabatu bobo bamvuandanga ku Yelusalemi?
Or those eighteen, on whom the tower in Shilukha fell, and killed them; do you think that they were worse offenders than all the others who dwell in Urishlim?
5 Nana ndikilukamba, vayi enati lukadi balula khadulu buna beno mamveno phila yimosi luela fuila.
I tell you, no, but, unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way."
6 Buna, wuba kamba nongo yayi: —Mutu wumosi wuba ayi nti andi wu figi wukunu mu ndimꞌandiyi vinu. Wuyiza tomba muawu makundi vayi kasia baka ko.
He spoke this parable. "A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it, and found none.
7 Buna wukamba kisadi kiba nsalanga mu ndima beni: “Tala, wawu mvu wuntatu ndimeni tombila makundi ma figi mu nti wawu vayi kadidikundi ndibakanga ko. Kuanga kuandi wawu, bila mbi wulembu bungila kuandi buangu ki ntoto mu phamba e?”
He said to the vine dresser, 'Look, these three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree, and found none. Cut it down. Why does it waste the soil?'
8 Vayi kisadi beni kimvutudila: “A pfumu, bika wutadidila diaka wawu mvu wawu nate ndiela mana balula ntoto muyenda nti ayi ndiela mutula mbozi.
He answered, 'Lord, leave it alone this year also, until I dig around it, and fertilize it.
9 Mananga wela buta makundi mu mvu wunkuiza. Enati buawu ko buna wela kuanga wawu.”
And if it bears fruit next time, [fine]; but if not, you can cut it down.'"
10 Yesu bu kaba longa, mu lumbu ki saba, mu nzo yimosi yi lukutukunu,
He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath day.
11 tala, nketo wumosi wuba muna wuba ayi yimbimbi yi kimbevo mu tezo ki kumi dinana di mimvu. Nketo beni wuba wukomvama; kadi baka bu luliminina.
And look, a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and she was bent over, and could in no way straighten herself up.
12 Yesu bu kammona, buna wuntela ayi wunkamba: —A nketo, kululu mu kimvevo kiaku!
When Yeshua saw her, he called her, and said to her, "Woman, you are freed from your infirmity."
13 Buna wuntetika mioko ayi vana vawu wululama ayi wukembisa Nzambi.
He laid his hands on her, and immediately she stood up straight, and glorified God.
14 Vayi pfumu yi nzo yi lukutukunu wufuema mu diambu di Yesukabelusa nketo beni mu lumbu ki saba; buna wubaluka kuidi nkangu ayi wutuba: —Bilumbu bi kisalu bidi bisambanu; luizanga mu belusu mu bilumbu bina vayi bika mu lumbu ki saba.
The ruler of the synagogue, being indignant because Yeshua had healed on the Sabbath, said to the crowd, "There are six days when work should be done Therefore come on those days and be healed, and not on the Sabbath day."
15 Vayi Pfumu wumvutudila: —Luidi bankua mayuya! Kadika mutu mu beno kaniangunanga ko ngombi andi voti mpundꞌandi, mu dikulu mu lumbu ki saba ayi kuzinatangamu kuzi nuikina e?
Therefore the Lord answered him, "You hypocrites. Does not each one of you free his ox or his donkey from the stall on the Sabbath, and lead him away to water?
16 Ayi nketo wawu widi muana wu nketo wu Abalahami. Tala kumi dinana di mimvu dimeni vioka tona Satana kankangila, buna disi fuana ko mu ku nnianguna mu lumbu ki saba e?
Ought not this woman, being a daughter of Avraham, whom Satana had bound, look, eighteen years, be freed from this bondage on the Sabbath day?"
17 Bu kaba tuba mambu momo buna bambeni bandi zioso zifua tsonivayi nkangu woso wumona khini mu diambu di mambu momo ma nkembo momo mavangimina mu niandi.
As he said these things, all his adversaries were disappointed, and all the crowd rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.
18 Buna Yesu wukamba: —Mu mbi mu dedikini kipfumu ki Nzambi ayi mu mbi ndenda ku kidedikisila e?
Then he said, "What is the Kingdom of God like? And to what can I compare it?
19 Kidedikini banga dikundi di mutalide di loza mutu mu tsolꞌandi. Dikundi beni diyunduka, dikituka nti. Zinuni ziyiza tungila madianza mawu mu bitafi biandi.
It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and put in his own garden. It grew, and became a tree, and the birds of the sky lodged in its branches."
20 Buna wubuela diaka: —Mu mbi ndenda dedikisila Kipfumu ki Nzambi e?
And again he said, "To what can I compare the Kingdom of God?
21 Kidedikini banga luvi lubonga nketo, wusobikisa luawu mu bitezo bitatu bi falina nate yimana funa.
It is like yeast, which a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, until it was all leavened."
22 Yesu wuviokila mu mavula ayi mu mala; wulonga muawu bu kalandakana nzilꞌandi mu kuenda ku Yelusalemi.
He went on his way through cities and villages, teaching, and traveling on to Urishlim.
23 Buna mutu wumosiwunyuvula: —A pfumu, bati buna batu bafioti kuandi bela vuka e?
One said to him, "Lord, are they few who are saved?" He said to them,
24 Buna wuba vutudila: —Bika lunuana mu kotila mu luelo wufioti bila ndikulukambabawombo bela tomba mu kota vayi bela nunga ko.
"Strive to enter in by the narrow door, for many, I tell you, will seek to enter in, and will not be able.
25 —Pfumu yi nzo bu kela telama ayi bu kela zibika muelo, enati ku nganda luela batakana, luela kokuta ayi luela leba: “A Pfumu, wutuzibudila”. Buna niandi wela ku luvutudila: “Ndisi zaba ko kuevi lubedi e?”
When once the master of the house has risen up, and has shut the door, and you begin to stand outside, and to knock at the door, saying, 'Lord, open to us.' then he will answer and tell you, 'I do not know you or where you come from.'
26 —Buna luela tuba: “Keti beto tudia ayi tunua yaku va kimosi. Keti ngeyo wulonga mu zinzila zietu…”
Then you will begin to say, 'We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.'
27 Buna wela vutula: “Bukiedika ndikulukamba ndisi zaba ko kuevi lubedi. Luthatukila beno boso bisadi bi mambimbi.”
But he will reply, 'I do not know where you come from. Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity.'
28 Kuna kuela ba bidilu ayi nkuetosolo wu meno mu thangu luela mona Abalahami, Isaki ayi Yakobi ayi mimbikudi mioso mu Kipfumu ki Nzambi, vayi, benu luela lozo ku nganda.
There will be weeping and grinding of teeth, when you see Avraham, Iskhaq, Yaquv, and all the prophets, in the Kingdom of God, and yourselves being thrown outside.
29 Batu bela ba ku Esite ayi ku Wesite, ku Node ayi ku Sude bela vuanda mu Kipfumu ki Nzambi.
They will come from the east, west, north, and south, and will sit down in the Kingdom of God.
30 Buna tala vadi batsuka bela ba batheti ayi batheti bela ba batsuka.
And look, there are some who are last who will be first, and there are some who are first who will be last."
31 Mu lumbu kina, Bafalisi bayiza ayi bankamba: —Katuka vava ayi yenda kuaku bila Elode tidi kuvonda.
In that same hour some Pharisees came, saying to him, "Get out of here, and go away, for Herod wants to kill you."
32 Vayi Yesu wuba vutudila: —Yendanu lukamba mbaku wuna ti: “Tala ndilembo totula ziphevi zimbimbi ayi buabu ndilembu belusa bambevo. Vayi mbazi ayi lumbu kintatu mbanisini kuama.
And he said to them, "Go and tell that fox, 'Look, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I complete my mission.
33 Vayi mfueti diata buabu mbazi ayi lumbu kina bila buisi fuana kombikudi kafuila ku nganda yi Yelusalemi.”
Nevertheless I must go on my way today and tomorrow and the next day, for it cannot be that a prophet perish outside of Urishlim.'
34 —A Yelusalemi! A Yelusalemi, divula dimvondanga mimbikudi ayi minlozilanga matadi bobo bakufidisilanga. Zikhumbu zikua ndizola kutikisilabana baku banga tsusu bu kankutikisilanga bana bandi ku tsi mavavi mandi vayi lumanga kuenu!
"Urishlim, Urishlim, that kills the prophets, and stones those who are sent to her. How often I wanted to gather your children together, like a hen gathers her own brood under her wings, and you refused.
35 Vayi tala beka kuluyekudila nzo eno. Ndikulukamba ti lulendi buela kumbona ko nate luela tuba: Bika kasakumunu mutu wowo wunkuizila mu dizina di Pfumu.
Look, your house is abandoned to you. And I tell you, you will not see me until you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'"
