Luke 8 (BOU) · Opened

1Yekwembokaho ayo, Yesu nee kemboka mwe mizi na mizi akabiikia Mbui Yedi za Useuta wa Muungu. Wada wahina kumi dimwe na waidi wakatongeana naye.Soon afterward, Jesus traveled from one town and village to another, preaching and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God. The Twelve were with Him,

2Hamwe na wavyee watuhu Yesu ekuwalavyao mazaiko na kuwahonya matamu, wakatongeana naye. Awo nee wakina Malia mwekwetangwae Magidalene, mwe kuavigwa mazaiko mfungate,as well as some women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,

3Yoana na mkaza Kuza, mndima mkuu wa Helode na Susana na wavyee watuhu. Awo wavyee nee wakamgosweeya ndima kwa vintu vyao vyose Yesu hamwe na wahina wakwe.Joanna the wife of Herod’s household manager Chuza, Susanna, and many others. These women were ministering to them out of their own means.

4Kisingi kimwe zumwezumwe kuu da wantu nediwa dakintana, na wantu nee wamwezea Yesu kulawa kwe kiya mzi. Na Yesu akawamba msimo unu.While a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from town after town, He told them this parable:

5“Mhasi kenda kuhanda mbeyu zakwe. Ekuwaho aketia mbeyu ntuhu zikagwa mwe sia, na wemboka sia wakazijata na wadege wa uwanga wakazida.“A farmer went out to sow his seed. And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, where it was trampled, and the birds of the air devoured it.

6Ntuhu zikagwa mwe uongo wekuwao na maiwe, na zekuhotao zikanyaa kwaajii ya kwesekuwa na uwisiuwisi.Some fell on rocky ground, and when it came up, the seedlings withered because they had no moisture.

7Mbeyu ntuhu zikagwa kwe miti ya misongoma, na ida miti ya miwa yekuhotaho hamwe nazo nakuzifintafinta iyo mitengea ikanyaa.Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up with it and choked the seedlings.

8Ntuhu nezigwa mwe sanga wenye khande, zikahota na kuvyaa vitana.” Ekubindaho kugombeka ayo, Yesu akalavya mgutio, akamba, “Mwenye magutwi na ategeeze!”Still other seed fell on good soil, where it sprang up and produced a crop—a hundredfold.” As Jesus said this, He called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”

9Wahina wakwe Yesu wakamuuza mana ya msimo uwo.Then His disciples asked Him what this parable meant.

10Naye akawatambaisa, “Nywinywi mwekhigwa umanyi wa kumanya ukwei wa Useuta wa Muungu ambao aho kae khawekumanyika akini isasa uikwa pwii, akini awo watuhu wendawembigwe kwa misimo, wakakauwa wasekudaha kuona, na wakategeeza wasekumanya.”He replied, “The knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to others I speak in parables, so that, ‘though seeing, they may not see; though hearing, they may not understand.’

11Mana ya msimo unu ni inu, Mbeyu ni mbui ya Muungu.Now this is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God.

12Ziya zekugwazo mwe sia zaonyesha wantu wada wategeezao ida mbui, ikaukaaho ibiisi akeza na kudihusa mwe mioyo yao wasekweza kumzumiia na kuoholwa.The seeds along the path are those who hear, but the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved.

13Ziya zekugwazo mwe maiwe zaonyesha wada wantu wategeezaho ida mbui wakaihokea kwa kinyemi. Akini inga ziya mbeyu, wantu awo khawana mazindo na mbui iyo khayekaa mwe mioyo yao kwaviya wazumiiya kwa kisingi du, na kisingi wageezwaho kubadana na mbui iyo.The seeds on rocky ground are those who hear the word and receive it with joy, but they have no root. They believe for a season, but in the time of testing, they fall away.

14Ziya mbeyu zekugwazo mwe miti ya miwa ni wantu wada wategeezao ida mbui, akini kisingi si kisingi, wahaukao wafintwafintwa na maatu, na vintu vyao vyose, na wekazi wa kiya msi nao khawakua mwe mbui ya Muungu.The seeds that fell among the thorns are those who hear, but as they go on their way, they are choked by the worries, riches, and pleasures of this life, and their fruit does not mature.

15Na ziya zekugwazo mwe sanga ntana nee wada wategeezao ida mbui wakaizumiiya kwa moyo mtana na wa kutegeeza. Awo kuzizimiza na kuendeea kugosoa mbui zimkundisazo Muungu.But the seeds on good soil are those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, cling to it, and by persevering produce a crop.

16Wantu khawawasha taa na kuigubika kwa nyungu hambu kuiika mzungui. Akini waika uwanga ya kiango ili wantu wengiaho gati wadahe kuona ung'azi.No one lights a lamp and covers it with a jar or puts it under a bed. Instead, he sets it on a stand, so those who enter can see the light.

17“Ivyoivyo chochose chekufiswacho chenda kigubulwe, na sii yoyose yesayokumanyika na yendaimanyike pwii.For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be made known and brought to light.

18“Kwa iyo, muwe meso mtegeezavyo. Kwaajii yoyose mwenacho endaekigwe na ngeeko, akini yuda mwesena, hata kiya afikiicho anacho, chendakidoigwe.”Pay attention, therefore, to how you listen. Whoever has will be given more, but whoever does not have, even what he thinks he has will be taken away from him.”

19Aho mami yakwe da Yesu na wanduguze wakamwezea, akini khawokudaha kumwezea hehi kwaajii ya zumwezumwe da wantu.Then Jesus’ mother and brothers came to see Him, but they were unable to reach Him because of the crowd.

20Mntu yumwe akamwamba Yesu, “Mami yako na wanduguzo wagooka chongoi, wakunda wakuone.”He was told, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to see You.”

21Akini Yesu akawamba wantu wose, “Mmaa yangu na wandugu zangu ni wada wategeezao mbui ya Muungu na kuditoza.”But He replied, “My mother and brothers are those who hear the word of God and carry it out.”

22Msi umwe, Yesu nekakwea ngaawa hamwe na wahina wakwe, akawamba, “Tidumuwe ntondoo da mazi tiite adi phande ya kaidi.” Naho, wakavoka ntambo.One day Jesus said to His disciples, “Let us cross to the other side of the lake.” So He got into a boat with them and set out.

23Ekuwaho wakatamba kwa ngaawa iyo, Yesu akagona. Ahoaho khusi khai ikavoka kuvuma, mazi yakavoka kwengia mwe ngaawa, newawa hehi na kudagamia.As they sailed, He fell asleep, and a windstorm came down on the lake, so that the boat was being swamped, and they were in great danger.

24Wada wahina wakamtimia Yesu, wakamwenua wakamwamba, “Zumbe, Zumbe! Tadagamia!” Yesu akenuka akaiwakia ida khusi na mkubwaniso wa mazi, navyo vikatwiiya, nee kwatuiiya.The disciples went and woke Him, saying, “Master, Master, we are perishing!” Then Jesus got up and rebuked the wind and the raging waters, and they subsided, and all was calm.

25Naho akawamba, “Uzumizi wenu u hahi?” Akini wowo wakatozwa ni umako na kuogoha uku wakagombekana, “Uyu ni ndai, ata agiiya khusi na mkubwaniso wa mazi, navyo vyamtegeeza?”“Where is your faith?” He asked. Frightened and amazed, they asked one another, “Who is this? He commands even the winds and the water, and they obey Him!”

26Waendeeya na ntambo, wakabua mpwani ya si ya Wagelasi zekuhakanazo na ntondoo da mazi da Galilaya.Then they sailed to the region of the Gerasenes, across the lake from Galilee.

27Ekuwaho aseeya mpwani, mntu yumwe ekuwaye kakwewa na mazaiko akamwezea kulawa he mzi uda. Kwa misi mingi mntu uyo kheekuwa akavaa magwanda, wala khekuwa akekaa mwe nyumba iya mwe mambiya.When Jesus stepped ashore, He was met by a demon-possessed man from the town. For a long time this man had not worn clothing or lived in a house, but he stayed in the tombs.

28Ekumuonaho Yesu, aketambika ahosi hemeso yakwe na kugombeka kwa mgutio mkuu, “Wee Yesu Mwana wa Muungu ekuwaye uko uwanga, una mbui yani na miye? Nakuhembeeza usekunisumiiza!”When the man saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before Him, shouting in a loud voice, “What do You want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You not to torture me!”

29Nee kamba ivyo kwaviya Yesu nekamwamba uyo zaiko amlawe mntu uyo. Zaiko ido ne dikamkwea mntu uyo maa kwa maa, na etiho wantu wamuika ndani na kumzengeteza kwa minyololo na mphingu, akini kiya maa akazidumua mphingu izo, akegalwa na zaiko ido adi he kiwawe.For Jesus had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. Many times it had seized him, and though he was bound with chains and shackles, he had broken the chains and been driven by the demon into solitary places.

30Naho, Yesu akamuuza, “Zina dako ni ndai?” Yee akamtambaisa. “Zina dangu ni ‘Hindoo’ ” kwaajii mazaiko mangi nee yammema.“What is your name?” Jesus asked. “Legion,” he replied, because many demons had gone into him.

31Ayo mazaiko wakamhembeeza Yesu asekuwegaa tubwi dilehado desado kuwa na kisiikizi.And the demons kept begging Jesus not to order them to go into the Abyss.

32Hantu aho nekuwa na tintimo kuu da nguuwe wakaiswa mwe mpolomoko wa muima. Naho ayo mazaiko wakamhembeeza awabade wawengie wada nguuwe. Naye Yesu akawabada wawengie.There on the hillside a large herd of pigs was feeding. So the demons begged Jesus to let them enter the pigs, and He gave them permission.

33Kwa iyo mazaiko ayo yakamlawa yuda mntu, yakengia kwa wada nguuwe na wakaseeya kwa kinyionyio mwe uda mpolomoko mkai, wakengia mwe ntondoo da mazi, wakafa.Then the demons came out of the man and went into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and was drowned.

34Wada waisi wekuonaho yose yekuawiiayo wakaguuka, wakaita kuwekha wantu mbui mwe mzi na mwe minda.When those tending the pigs saw what had happened, they ran off and reported this in the town and countryside.

35Wantu wakeza kukauwa yekulawiiayo. Wakamtimia Yesu, wakamwona yuda mntu mwe kulavigwa mazaiko kekaa hehi na Yesu kavaa magwanda, na akii zakwe zimuuiya, wakaogoha.So the people went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus and found the man whom the demons had left, sitting at Jesus’ feet, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.

36Wada wantu wekuonaho ida mbui wakawagombekea wada wantu wekwezaho hada viya yuda mntu mwekuwae na mazaiko ekuoholwavyo.Meanwhile, those who had seen it reported how the demon-possessed man had been healed.

37Wantu wa si ya Gelasi wakaogoha muno. Ivyo wakamuombeza Yesu ahauke. Ivyo Yesu akakwea vituhu ngaawa ahauke.Then all the people of the region of the Gerasenes asked Jesus to depart from them, because great fear had taken hold of them. So He got into the boat and started back.

38Yuda mntu mwe kuavigwa yada mazaiko akamhembeeza aite hamwe naye. Yesu akamwemeza, na akamwamba,The man whom the demons had left begged to go with Jesus. But He sent him away, saying,

39“Uya kaya ukawambe yose Muungu ekukugosweyavyo.” Aho, yuda mntu akaita akabiikia kiya hantu mwe mzi uda mbui zose Yesu ekumgosweyavyo.“Return home and describe how much God has done for you.” So the man went away and proclaimed all over the town how much Jesus had done for him.

40Yesu ekuuyaho phande ya kaidi ya ntondoo da mazi, zumwezumwe da wantu dikamhokea, kwaviya wose nee wakamgoja.When Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed Him, for they had all been waiting for Him.

41Aho akeza mntu yumwe zina dake Yailo, muongoezi wa Nyumba ya kukintania Wayahudi, nee etambika he meso ya Yesu, akamhembeeza aite kaya kwakwe.Just then a synagogue leader named Jairus came and fell at Jesus’ feet. He begged Him to come to his house,

42Kwaajii ni mwana waikedu wa kivyee, mwenye myaka kumi dimwe na mbii, nekawa yu hehi na kuuya na nyuma. Yesu ekuwaho akaita wantu ne wamfintafinta kiya phande.because his only daughter, who was about twelve, was dying. As Jesus went with him, the crowds pressed around Him,

43Kuwa na mvyee yumwe gatigati ya diya zumwezumwe da wantu, nekawa akalawa phome kwaviya nekawa na utamu wa mtuo kwa kisingi cha myaka kumi dimwe na mbii. Naho nekabinda vintu vyakwe vyose kwa waganga, khahana ekudahae kumhonya.including a woman who had suffered from bleeding for twelve years. She had spent all her money on physicians, but no one was able to heal her.

44Uyo mvyee ne amtongea Yesu nyuma, akadonta msao wa gwanda dakwe. Ahoaho, akahonywa utamu wakwe wakulawa phome.She came up behind Jesus and touched the fringe of His cloak, and immediately her bleeding stopped.

45Yesu akauza, “Nndai mwekunidonta?” Wose wakaemea wakamba khahana mntu ekukudontae. Naye Petulo akamba, “Zumbe, zumwezumwe da wantu wakuikia bunga na kukufintafinta!”“Who touched Me?” Jesus asked. But they all denied it. “Master,” said Peter, “the people are crowding and pressing against You.”

46Akini Yesu akamba, “Kuna mntu kanidonta, mana khimanya kihinya mntu kwa udaho wangu.”But Jesus declared, “Someone touched Me, for I know that power has gone out from Me.”

47Yuda mvyee ekuonaho khadaha kwefisa, akeaviiza huku akakama kwa kuogoha aketambika hemeso ya Yesu. Aho akawamba wantu wose chekumwekacho kumdonta Yesu na kwaviya ekuhonywavyo vuu puu.Then the woman, seeing that she could not escape notice, came trembling and fell down before Him. In the presence of all the people, she explained why she had touched Him and how she had immediately been healed.

48Yesu akamwamba, yuda mwana kivyee, “Hita kwa uivanisa, kuzumiiya kwako kukuhonya.”“Daughter,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you. Go in peace.”

49Ekuwaho aendeeya kugombeka, Yailo yuda muongoezi wa nyumba ya kukuntania Wayahudi akaetewa mbui kulawa kaya, “Mwana yako wakivyee kauya kaye na nyuma, usekumpisha Mhinyi.”While He was still speaking, someone arrived from the house of the synagogue leader. “Your daughter is dead,” he told Jairus. “Do not bother the Teacher anymore.”

50Yesu ekusikiaho ayo akamwamba Yailo, “Usekuogoha zumiiya du, naye endaahone.”But Jesus overheard them and said to Jairus, “Do not be afraid; just believe, and she will be healed.”

51Ekubuwaho nyumbani kwa Yailo khawekumbada mntu kwengia ndani hamwe naye, iya Petulo, na Yohana, na Yakobo na wavyazi wa mndee uyo.When He entered the house, He did not allow anyone to go in with Him except Peter, John, James, and the child’s father and mother.

52Wantu wose nee wakiiya na kuomboeza kwaajii ya uyo mndee ekuyae na nyuma. Aho Yesu akawamba, “Msekuiiya, kwaajii mwana khekuuya na nyuma, kagona du!”Meanwhile, everyone was weeping and mourning for her. But Jesus said, “Stop weeping; she is not dead but asleep.”

53Nawo wakamseka Yesu kwaajii nee wamanya kauya kae na nyuma.And they laughed at Him, knowing that she was dead.

54Akini Yesu akamtoza mkono akamba, “Mwana enuka!”But Jesus took her by the hand and called out, “Child, get up!”

55Muye wakwe ukamuuwiya, vuu puu akenuka, Yesu akawamba wamwekhe khande.Her spirit returned, and at once she got up. And He directed that she be given something to eat.

56Wavyazi wakwe nee wahondomaa, aho Yesu akawaemeza wasekumwamba mntu yeyose aya yekugosokayo.Her parents were astounded, but Jesus ordered them not to tell anyone what had happened.
