Luke 8 (DNE) · Opened

1Puipetita ilebhe yenio, Yecho ajhakubheghela bheghela pabomane na muchenda kutangacha Malobhe gha Mbone gha Unahota nkolongwa gwa Chapanga. Na bhabholwa bhake kome na bhabhele bhala bhakalongohine na jwenio pamonga,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,

2helahela pakibha na akakeghe bhubhakabhohitwe michuka na kulamichwa ulwalo, mulilongo lyenio akibha Maliya Magidalena jwahumila ku Magidala, na jwenio akalamichwe ulwalo pamonga na kubhoha michuka chaba jhakibha najho.as well as some women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,

3Yoane nhwana gwa Kucha, jwenio Kuza akibha kilongoche nkolo jwa akatumiche bha nyumba jha nkolongwa Helode, na suzana pamonga na akakeghe bhange bhapihita ilebhe yabhe kuntangatila Yecho na bhabholwa bhake.Joanna the wife of Herod’s household manager Chuza, Susanna, and many others. These women were ministering to them out of their own means.

4Bhando bhamahele bhakibha bhanyendilila Yecho kuhumii ku miche jhamahele bhakajhenda na kukonganika pamonga. Likunde likolongwa pulikongina pamonga ajhakwalobholela mana jha nnandanikiho gwenio.While a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from town after town, He told them this parable:

5“Mundo jhumo akajhenda kumicha mbejho yake kung'onda. Pamichita mbejho yenio, mbejho henge ikaponile pahupele jha ndela na bhando bhajhakutimba timba na ijhune ijhakuhonyola.“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.

6Bhahe, mbejho henge ikaponi mumaghanga undope ukibha ndeka kihekendo ghubhii panane jha lindalabho, na yenio puhitumbwila kulingulila ilomo lomo, ijhakunyala nhwalo gwangabhehe ubhehe mundope.Some fell on rocky ground, and when it came up, the seedlings withered because they had no moisture.

7Henge ikaponikiye pakate jha mikwanga, jhene mikwanga piimelita ijhakuhindimana.Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up with it and choked the seedlings.

8Henge ikaponile mu undope ghubholile. Ijhakumela na kupambika pochii kupeta henge yamichita.” Pajhomolila kulonge gheniya, Yecho ajhakunonoha lilobhe, alongila, “Jwabhii na machikilo gha kujhoha na abangatuka!”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.”

9Peniya bhabholwa bhake bhakanyendile Yecho na kunkonya, nhwalo gwa nnandanikiho gwenio.Then His disciples asked Him what this parable meant.

10Yecho ajhakwalobholela, “Mangota mpatite kumanya chile jha unahota nkolongwa gwa Chapanga hotuhotu, nambo kwa bhando bhange naha ndeka, bhene bhalongolelwa kwa milandanikiho bhakopela na bhakotoka kulola na bhajhoha na bhakotoka kubangatuka.”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.’

11“Bhahe, nnandanikiho ghongo mana jhake. Mbejho ndi lilobhe lya Chapanga.Now this is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God.

12Mbejho hela iponi mundela, ndi ulandanikiwa na bhando bhubhajhoha lilobhe lya Chapanga, peniya Limbembela uhika na kulikotopola kuhumii kumwojho gwabhe, bhakotoka kubhehe na kihobholelo na kughombokoka.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.

13Hela iponi mukihekendo, nnandanikiho gwa mundo jwalijhoha lilobhe lya Chapanga na kulipokela kwa kuhangana, nambo bhabhehe jhe na mikegha, bhalihobholela lilobhe lyenio pandina tugha, malola anda ghahikilile kihobholelo chenie ukileka kolya.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.

14Mbejho hela ikaponikiye pa mibha ulandanikiwa na bhando bhala bhubhajhokanikiya lilobhe lya Chapanga, nambo pubhajhendelela lilobhe lyenio, uhindimana na iholo na ilebhe ya pannema pano. Bhando bhamba bhihotola ndeka kuhenga chochoha chamaha kwa Chapanga.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.

15Nambo mbejho iponi pa undope ghubholile, ndi ulandanikiwa na bhando bhala bhibhajhokanikiya lilobhe lya Chapanga na kulichokolekeya kwa mwojho gwa umbone. Kabhele uhimbilila na kujhendelela kuhenga ghapala Chapanga.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.

16“Bhando bhipamba ndeka kolobohi na kuhibheka nkate mukihulo hilu kubheka kuhe jha kindanda. Nambo ubheka panane jha kinala, bhando pubhajhingii nkate bhalola mbone.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“Na kilebhe chochoha chikihihitwe chenie nakihumbuka, na kilebhe chochoha chikiyatalilwe na chenie nakimanyikana mbegha.For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be made known and brought to light.

18“Bhahe, mukilolekeye na malobhe ghumijhoha, mundo jwabhii na kilebhe, jwenio najhonjekewa chenge, nambo jwangabhenacho, napokwa hilu chenie chandina chahola abhii nacho.”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.”

19Majhe mundo na akalongo bhake Yecho bhakajhabhii kunninga, nhwalo gwa lilongo lya bhando kujholoka, bhakahotwii ndeka kuhuheghelela.Then Jesus’ mother and brothers came to see Him, but they were unable to reach Him because of the crowd.

20Mundo jhumo ajhakunnobholela Yecho, “Majhe gwino na akalongo bhino bhajhemite panja bhapala kumona mwenga.”He was told, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to see You.”

21Nambo Yecho ajhakwalobholela bhoha, “Majhe gwango na akalongo bhango ndi bhala bhibhajhoha lilobhe lya Chapanga na kulihenge lihengo.”But He replied, “My mother and brothers are those who hear the word of God and carry it out.”

22Peniya lichiko limo Yecho ajhakujhingila mungalabha pamonga na bhabholwa bhake, ajhakwalobholela, “Tujhende tujhomboke ade kwiye jha lilabha.” Bhahe, bhajhakutumbuu mwanja.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.

23Bhahe, pubhakibha mumwanja, Yecho ajhakugholoka mungalabha mola, chwechelele kimbonga kikolongwa kijhakupogha, na mache ghajhakutumbula kujhingila nkate jha ngalabha, na bhene bhatumbwila kumilwa.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.

24Bhabholwa bhake bhala bhajhakunyendelela Yecho, bhajhakunyimuwa bhalongila, “Bhambo, Bhambo! Tanjino kuwegha!” Yecho ajhakung'ang'anuka na kukipwatalila kimbonga kikolongwa na matuhe gha mache ghala, ghajhakuleka, ndi pajhakubhehe njelembo.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.

25Papalapala ajhakwakonya bhabholwa bhake, “Bho, kibhii kojhe kihobholelo chino?” Nambo bhene bhajhakukangacha na kujhoghopa kone bhapwepwelina, “Mundo hojho abhii bhole, ahoto kukipwatalila kimbonga kikolongwa na matuhe gwa mache, na yenio ikanyeketela!”“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!”

26Yecho na bhabholwa bhake bhakajhendilile na mwanja na kuhika kumuche gwa ku Kilambo cha Akagelache ghubhii kwiye jha lilabha lya ku Galilaya,Then they sailed to the region of the Gerasenes, across the lake from Galilee.

27Yecho pahulwika mungalabha, ajhakukongana na mundo jhumo haikilila kuhumii pabomane jwakibha na michuka. Mundo jwenio kwa machiko ghamahele ahwalitajhe ngobho hilu kutama pakajha, nambo jwenio ahwelita ku mambe.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.

28Mundo jhola pamwonita Yecho, ajhakulalama kanonoha na kukigwiya pahe palonge jhake na kulonge kanonoha, “Yecho, Mwana gwa Chapanga Nkolongwa, kibhii nike na nenga? Nijhopa, chonde ungotoka kung'aha!”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!”

29Alongila naha nhwalo gwa Yecho akibha aupwatalile nchuka ghola umoke mundo jwenio. Nchuka gwenio uchikilicha mundo jwenio lihwelita machiko ghoha. Bhando bhamekita nkate na kunkonga ngojhe ya minyololo na pingo mumakongono na mu mabhoko, nambo ahwelita kunocholana, na nchuka gwitutuhana ade kunjengane.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.

30Bhahe, Yecho ajhakukonya, “Bho, liina lino ghane?” Na jwenio ajhakujhanguu, “Liina lyango ndi, ‘Lilongo,’ ” nhwalo akibha na michuka twe bhubhakajhingile.“What is your name?” Jesus asked. “Legion,” he replied, because many demons had gone into him.

31Nambo michuka jhela ijhakumpembelekeya Yecho, inongolila, chonde nkotoka kutukangila ku libhomba lyanga upekeho na kuhobhelela kwenio.And the demons kept begging Jesus not to order them to go into the Abyss.

32Pahina jhake pakibha na lilongo lya magholobhe ghalila mupele mwa kitombe. Michuka jhela ijhakumpembelekeya Yecho bhajhende bhakajhingile magholobhe, na Yecho ajhakwalekekeya ghajhingile magholobhe.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.

33Bhahe, michuka jhela pwichomwika mundo jhola, ijhakujhenda kwa magholobhe ghala, na lilongo lyoha lijhakulubheha lubhelo kutumbukila mulilabha na kuwelela mwenio.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.

34Peniya bhalucha magholobhe bhoha pubhalolita ghughapitile, bhajhakujhenda lubhelo kwalongolela bhando malobhe kubomane na muchenda.When those tending the pigs saw what had happened, they ran off and reported this in the town and countryside.

35Bhahe, bhando bhamahele bhakahikite kulolekeya ghughapitile. Pubhahikita pabhii jha Yecho bhajhakunkolela mundo jwabhii na michuka jhola, abhii pahina na Yecho, kongo ahwalite ngobho na malango ghake ghahengwite! Bhakajhogwipe hake.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.

36Bhando bhala bhubhalolita ghughatendika, ajhakulonge mundo jhola chalamichwe.Meanwhile, those who had seen it reported how the demon-possessed man had been healed.

37Peniya bhando bhu ku kilambo cha Wagelache jhoha, bhajhakubhehe na bwaghaliya bhajhakunyopa Yecho abhoke peniya na ajhende konge. Yecho ajhakujhingila mungalabha na kubhoka.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.

38Bhahe, mundo jhubhanchomwila michuka jhola ajhakunnyopa Yecho bhajhende bhoha, nambo Yecho ajhakuntabhuka, anobholila,The man whom the demons had left begged to go with Jesus. But He sent him away, saying,

39“Nnyende kajhino mukalongele ilebhe yoha ikolongwa yantendile Chapanga.” Bhahe, peniya mundo jwenio ajhakujhenda, na kwatangachila bhando bha pabomane bhoha makolongwa ghatendilwe na Yecho.“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.

40Bhahe, Yecho pabhujhita kabhele kwiye jha lilabha, ajhakulikolela lilongo lya bhando lijhakumpokela kwa ilulo, kongo bhatehila kunnendela.When Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed Him, for they had all been waiting for Him.

41Bhahe, ajhakuhika kilongoche jhumo jwa nyumba jha kukonganikii Akayahude, liina lyake Jailu, ajhakutama makilikite palonge jha Yecho na kumpembelekeya ajhende kajhake.Just then a synagogue leader named Jairus came and fell at Jesus’ feet. He begged Him to come to his house,

42Nhwalo nchikana gwake jwakanjika, jwakibha na yaka kome na mibhele, atehila kulwalwa tepekatepeka abhandikila kuwegha. Peniya Yecho pajhahwila kajha kwa Jailo, lilongo lya bhando lijhakuhindamana kwenio.because his only daughter, who was about twelve, was dying. As Jesus went with him, the crowds pressed around Him,

43Bhahe, pakibha na mwikeghe jhumo pakate jha lilongo lela, mwikeghe jwenio alwalita ulwalo gwa pihe kwa yaka kome na mibhele. Kabhele akataghine ilebhe yake yoha kwa akaghanga, nambo abhii jhe jwakahotwii kunamicha.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.

44Mwikeghe jwenio ajhakunyendela Yecho cha kuhyeto na kupapaha lilombolo lya ngobho jhake. Papalapala ulwalo gwake gwa pihe, ajhakulama.She came up behind Jesus and touched the fringe of His cloak, and immediately her bleeding stopped.

45Yecho ajhakwakonya, “Bho, ghane jwambapihe?” Bhando bhoha pubhakanita, Petile ajhakulonge, “Bhambo, lilongo lya bhando bhubhahindamine na bhikanganakangana!”“Who touched Me?” Jesus asked. But they all denied it. “Master,” said Peter, “the people are crowding and pressing against You.”

46Nambo Yecho ajhakulonge, “Abhii mundo jwambapapihe, nikijhoha likakala lyango imokite.”But Jesus declared, “Someone touched Me, for I know that power has gone out from Me.”

47Peniya mwikeghe jhola palepelila kujhendelela kujhobha, ajhakukilaha kongo atehila kulendema, ajhakutama makilikite palonge jha Yecho. Ajhakunnobholela pa bhando bhoha, nhwalo ghundumite kumpapaha Yecho na chinamichwe papa.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.

48Yecho ajhakunnobholela, “Nchikana gwango, kihobholelo chino kinamiche, nnyende kwa uteeke.”“Daughter,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you. Go in peace.”

49Yecho pajhendelila kulonge, ajhakuhika ntumiche jhumo kuhumii kajha kwa Jailu, ajhakunobholela Jailu, “Nchikana jwino ajhomwike, nneke kujhendelela kuntotoha Mmola.”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.”

50Nambo pajhomwila Yecho gheniya, ajhakunnobholela Jailo, “Nkotoka kujhoghopa, uhobholele tugha, nchikana jwino nalama.”But Jesus overheard them and said to Jairus, “Do not be afraid; just believe, and she will be healed.”

51Pahikita pakajha pa Jailo, Yecho ajhakuhibhilikiya mundo jhonge kujhingila nkate nga Petile na Yohane na Yakobu pamonga na tate na majhe jwa nchikana jhola.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.

52Bhando bhoha bhakibha bhalelita malelo gha nchikana jwenio, nambo Yecho ajhakwalobholela, “Nkotoka kulela, nchikana ahwii ndeka, abhii mugholoka tugha!”Meanwhile, everyone was weeping and mourning for her. But Jesus said, “Stop weeping; she is not dead but asleep.”

53Nambo bhene bhajhakunheka Yecho, nhwalo bhakamanye nchikana jhola ajhomwike.And they laughed at Him, knowing that she was dead.

54Bhahe, Yecho ajhakukamula lubhoko na kunkema, “Mwe mwana, jhimuka!”But Jesus took her by the hand and called out, “Child, get up!”

55Ughome gwake ujhakumujhila kabhele, papalapala ajhakujhimuka. Ndi Yecho ajhakwalobholela bhankupile chakulyegha.Her spirit returned, and at once she got up. And He directed that she be given something to eat.

56Tate na majhe gwa nchikana jhola bhajhakuhechuka hake, nambo Yecho ajhakwakanikiya bhakotoka kunnobholela mundo jhojhoha ilebhe yoha itendika peniya.Her parents were astounded, but Jesus ordered them not to tell anyone what had happened.
