Luke 7
1 After he had finished speaking in the hearing of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
Yesu peamali kujova ago kwa vandu akahamba ku Kapelanaumu.
2 A certain centurion’s servant, who was dear to him, was sick and at the point of death.
Kwenuko kwavili na mkulu mmonga wa vandu va ngondo va ku Loma, mwenuyo avi na mtumisi, mweamyidikili neju mwealwala mulung'olelu.
3 When he heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him to come and save his servant.
Mkulu yula wa Loma peayuwini mambu ga Yesu, akavatuma vagogo vangi va Vayawudi vakamuyupayi abwela kumulamisa mtumisi waki.
4 When they came to Jesus, they begged him earnestly, saying, “He is worthy for you to do this for him,
Pevahikili kwa Yesu, vakamjovela, “pepayi bambu, mundu mwenuyu, yitakiwa atangatiwayi.
5 for he loves our nation, and he built our synagogue for us.”
Ndava mwenuyu akuvagana vandu vitu, kangi ndi mweatijengili nyumba ya kukonganekela Vayawudi.”
6 Jesus went with them. When he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him, “Lord, don’t trouble yourself, for I am not worthy for you to come under my roof.
Ndi Yesu akahamba nawu. Pavahegalili pa nyumba ya mkulu yula, ndi mkulu akavatuma vankozi vaki vakamjovelayi Yesu, “Bambu, kotoka kujing'aha. Muni nene nakujiwona ngati nabwina hati veve kuyingila mumyumba yangu,
7 Therefore I didn’t even think myself worthy to come to you; but say the word, and my servant will be healed.
Kangi, nikajiweni nabwina lepi, nene kubwela kwa veve. Nambu jovayi ngalilovi na mtumisi wangu yati ilama.
8 For I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers. I tell this one, ‘Go!’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
Ndava muni nene mewa, mundu mwenivikiwi pahi ya uhotola wa vakulu vangu nivi na manjolinjoli, nikamjovelayi mmonga, ‘Hambayi!’ Ihamba, nikamjovela yungi, ‘Bwelayi!’ Na mwene ibwela, Nikamjovelayi na mvanda wangu, ‘Kita naha!’ Namwene ikita.”
9 When Jesus heard these things, he marveled at him, and turned and said to the multitude who followed him, “I tell you, I have not found such great faith, no, not in Israel.”
Yesu akakangasa paayuwini genago, akaung'anamukila msambi wa vandu wewamlandali, akavajovela, “Niloli lepi sadika yivaha ngati iyi hati pagati ya vandu va Isilaeli!”
10 Those who were sent, returning to the house, found that the servant who had been sick was well.
Ndi vandu vala pavawuyili kunyumba vakamkolela mtumisi yula alamili.
11 Soon afterwards, he went to a city called Nain. Many of his disciples, along with a great multitude, went with him.
Chilau yaki, Yesu akahamba kumuji umonga weukemelewa Naini, na vawuliwa vaki pamonga na msambi wa vandu ukalongosana nayu.
12 Now when he came near to the gate of the city, behold, one who was dead was carried out, the only born son of his mother, and she was a widow. Many people of the city were with her.
Ndi pavahegalili papipi na mlyangu mkulu wa muji, vakakonganeka na vandu vavagegili mtuhi wa msongolo mmonga, mwana yuyoyo ndu wa lipwela. Vandu vamahele va pamuji wenuwo vavi pamonga na mau mwenuyo.
13 When the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her and said to her, “Don’t cry.”
Bambu Yesu paamuweni mau yula, akamhengela lipyana akamjovela, “Kotoka kuvemba.”
14 He came near and touched the coffin, and the bearers stood still. He said, “Young man, I tell you, arise!”
Kangi Yesu akahamba na kupamisa lusongwani chavagegili mtuhi na vavagegili vala vakayima. Akajova, “Wamsongolo veve! Nijova yimuka!”
15 He who was dead sat up and began to speak. Then he gave him to his mother.
Mweafwi yula akayima akatumbula kulongela. Yesu akampela mau yula mwana waki.
16 Fear took hold of all, and they glorified God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us!” and, “God has visited his people!”
Ndi vandu voha vakavya na wogohi, vakatumbula kumulumbalila Chapanga. Vakajova, “Mlota mkulu wa Chapanga atihumali pagati yitu, Chapanga abwelili kuvatangila vandu vaki.”
17 This report went out concerning him in the whole of Judea and in all the surrounding region.
Mambu genago gakadandasika pamulima woha wa Yudea na milima yoha yeyavi papipi.
18 The disciples of John told him about all these things.
Vawuliwa vaki Yohani pevamjovili mambu goha. Ndi akavakemela vawuliwa vavili,
19 John, calling to himself two of his disciples, sent them to Jesus, saying, “Are you the one who is coming, or should we look for another?”
akavatuma kwa Bambu vakamkotayi, “Veve ndi msangula mweibwela, amala timulindila yungi?”
20 When the men had come to him, they said, “John the Baptizer has sent us to you, saying, ‘Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?’”
Pavahikili kwa Yesu, vakamjovela, “Yohani Mbatizaji atitumili tikukotayi, ngati veve ndi msangula mweibwela, amala timlindila yungi.”
21 In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and to many who were blind he gave sight.
Lukumbi lwenulo vamkoli Yesu avalamisayi vandu vamahele vevavi na matamu na vana mizuka yihakau akayiwusa, na vangalola vamahele akavakita kulola.
22 Jesus answered them, “Go and tell John the things which you have seen and heard: that the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.
Ndi akavajovela muhamba mukamjovela Yohani goha gemugaweni na kuyuwana. Vangalola vilola, vangagenda vigenda, vanamabudi vinyambiswa, vangayuwa viyuwana, vavafwili vihyukiswa, na vangangu vikokosewa Lilovi la Bwina.
23 Blessed is he who finds no occasion for stumbling in me.”
Ahekayi mundu yula mweangayoma ndava ya nene!
24 When John’s messengers had departed, he began to tell the multitudes about John, “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
Vajumbi va Yohani vala pavawukili, ndi Yesu akatumbula kuukota msambi wa vandu gakumuvala Yohani, “Pamwahambili kulugangatu kumlola Yohani, mwaganili kulola kiki? Wu, mwaholalili kumlola mundu mweavi ngati lidete lelinyuguswa na mpungu?
25 But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft clothing? Behold, those who are gorgeously dressed and live delicately are in kings’ courts.
Hinu, mwahambili kulola kiki? Mundu mwaawali nyula za nyililili? Vandu veviwala chakujinyambisa na kutama wumi wabwina, venavo vavi munyumba za vankosi.
26 But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.
Munijovela chemukahambili kulola? Mlota wa Chapanga? Ena, chakaka kangi neju ya Mlota wa Chapanga.
27 This is he of whom it is written, ‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’
Yohani mwenuyu ndi malovi gayandikiwi mu Mayandiku kumvala mwene, ‘Lola nene nikumtuma mjumbi wangu akulongolela, ndava ya kukukwalila njila yaku.’
28 “For I tell you, among those who are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptizer; yet he who is least in God’s Kingdom is greater than he.”
Yesu akamalakisila kujova,” “Kawaka mundu, mweavelikiwi na mdala mkulu kuliku Yohani Mbatizaji. Nambu mweavi mdebe muunkosi wa Chapanga, mwenuyo ndi mkulu kuliku mwene.”
29 When all the people and the tax collectors heard this, they declared God to be just, having been baptized with John’s baptism.
Vandu voha pamonga na vatola kodi vevabatiziwi na Yohani, pevayuwini genago, vakayidakila Chapanga ndi mchakaka.
30 But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the counsel of God, not being baptized by him themselves.
Nambu Vafalisayu na vawula va Malagizu vala vevabatiziwi lepi na Yohani, ndi vabeli mpangu wa Chapanga ndava ya mambu gavi.
31 “To what then should I compare the people of this generation? What are they like?
Yesu akavajovela, “Chiveleku cha vandu ava kwali nivawanangisa na kyani? Vene vandu ava valingini na kiki?
32 They are like children who sit in the marketplace and call to one another, saying, ‘We piped to you, and you didn’t dance. We mourned, and you didn’t weep.’
Vavi ngati vana vevatamii pandu pakugulisila vindu vikemelana, chikundi chimonga na chiyaki, ‘Tivabetili chitolilo nambu nyenye mwanga kina! Tivayimbili nyimbu za malilu nambu muvembi lepi!’
33 For John the Baptizer came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon.’
Yohani peabweli, ajihinisi chakulya wala kunywa divayi, mkamjova ‘Mwenuyu anamzuka!’
34 The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Behold, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’
Mwana wa Mundu abwelili, ilya na kunywa, nyenye mujova, ‘Mumlola muhutulu na chigaligali uyu, nkozi wa vatola kodi na vandu vevakumbudila Chapanga!’
35 Wisdom is justified by all her children.”
Nambu luhala lwa Chapanga lulangisa, yakuvya chakaka kwa voha vevakuluyidakila.”
36 One of the Pharisees invited him to eat with him. He entered into the Pharisee’s house and sat at the table.
Mfalisayu mmonga amgongolili Yesu kulya panyumba yaki. Akayingila munyumba ya Mfalisayu yula na kutama kulya.
37 Behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that he was reclining in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster jar of ointment.
Ndi pamuji wenuwo avi mdala mmonga wumi waki atamayi kumbudila Chapanga. Akayuwana Yesu avili munyumba ya Mfalisayu uyu, ndi akatola chupa yeyahongoliwi kwa liganga la alabasta yeyavi na mahuta ga kunungalila bwina.
38 Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
Akayima papipi na magendelu ga Yesu kuni avembayi, na maholi gaki gamudonyokela Yesu mumagendelu, akahungula magendelu ga Yesu na mayunju gaki, akagabusu magendelu gala na kunyala mahuta genago.
39 Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner.”
Mfalisayu mweamugongolili Yesu pealoli genago akaholalela mumtima waki, “Mwe mundu uyu ngaavi chakaka mlota wa Chapanga, ngaammanyi mdala mweampamisi, kuvya mweakumbudila Chapanga!”
40 Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” He said, “Teacher, say on.”
Yesu akamjovela mfalisayu yula. “Simoni, chivii chindu chenigana kukujovela.” Simoni, akamyangula, “Ena muwula, jovayi.”
41 “A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
Yesu akajova, “Vandu vavili vamuyahiki mundu mashonga. Mmonga ayayiki mashonga ga luhuna lwa mwaka umonga na miheyi sita na yungi ayaiki mashonga ga luhuna lwa mwehi umonga na majuma gavili.
42 When they couldn’t pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most?”
Voha vavili vavilepi na mashonga ga kuwuyisa, mundu yula avahulumili voha. Hinu yani mweakumugana neju bambu yula?”
43 Simon answered, “He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most.” He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”
Simoni akamyangula, “Chakaka mweahulumiwi mashonga ga mahele yula alamugana neju bambu yula.” Yesu akamjovela, “Uhamwili chabwina.”
44 Turning to the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, and you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head.
Kangi akamng'anamukila mdala yula na akamjovela Simoni, “Umlola mdala uyu? Penikayingili munyumba yaku unipeli lepi manji gakusamba mumagendelu gangu, nambu mdala uyu anitepatisi magendelu gangu na maholi gaki na kuhungula na mayunju gaki.
45 You gave me no kiss, but she, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.
Penikayingili unikemili lepi chakunibusu mulitama, nambu mdala uyu kutumbula panakayingila hakotwiki lepi kunijambusa cha kunibusu litama laki mumagendelu gangu.
46 You didn’t anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.
Uninyalili lepi mahuta ga zeituni kumutu veve, nambu mdala uyu aninyalili mahuta geginungalila bwina mumagendelu gangu.
47 Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But one to whom little is forgiven, loves little.”
Nikukujovela, alekekisiwi kumbudila Chapanga pamahele ndava muni alangisi uganu uvaha. Nambu mundu mwealekekiswi kumbudila Chapanga padebe ilangisa uganu udebe.”
48 He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
Yesu akamjovela mdala yula, “Ulekekiswi goha geumbudili Chapanga.”
49 Those who sat at the table with him began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”
Vandu vala vavatamili na Yesu pakulya pala, vakatumbula kukotana, “Mundu uyu ndi yani? Hati ihotola kulekekesa vandu vevakumbudila Chapanga?”
50 He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”
Ndi Yesu akamjovela mdala yula, “Kusadika kwaku kukulamisi, uhamba na uteke.”
