Luke 17 (DOV) · Opened

1Jesu wakati kulibasikwiiya bakwe, “Ninchobeni kuti kuloba zilebyo, pesi maawe kuliyoyo muzitakiinde mulinguwe!Jesus said to His disciples, “It is inevitable that stumbling blocks will come, but woe to the one through whom they come!

2Kuyoba mbubo kuti ziyo likaangwe munsingo yakwe alimwi akawaalwe mulwizi, kwiiknda kuti akeetelezya aaba banini kuti bakachite zibi.It would be better for him to have a millstone hung around his neck and to be thrown into the sea than to cause one of these little ones to stumble.

3Amulilange nyweebo nobeni. Kuti mweenzinyokwe wabisya, amumukalalile, na wasanduka amumulekelele.Watch yourselves. If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.

4Na wakubisizya tuli musanu atubili abuzuba mpawo kalikuboola kulinduwe tulimusanu atubili, kaamba kuti, 'Ndasanduka,' weelede kumulekelela.”Even if he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times returns to say, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.”

5Batumwa bakati ku Mwami, “Koyungizya lusyomo lwesu.”The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!”

6Mwami wakati, “Kansinga mwali aalusyomo luniini mbuli nseke yamusitada, mwalikunoti kulooyu musamu wamulubbeni, 'Konyukuka alimwi ukabyalwe mulwizi,' wali kunoomuswiilizya.And the Lord answered, “If you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you.

7Pesi ngwani wenu uulamulanda uulima na uyembela mbelele, uwamba kuti kulinguwe elyo kanoli wasika kuzwa kumuunda, 'Sika lino ukkale aansi ulye'?Which of you whose servant comes in from plowing or shepherding in the field will say to him, ‘Come at once and sit down to eat’?

8Takoowamba na kuti, 'Ndibambila chakulya ndily, uwange lukumba kuzizwaato zyako mpawo undikutawukile mane ndimane kulya akunya. Ndamaninsya notazoolye akunywa webo'?Instead, won’t he tell him, ‘Prepare my meal and dress yourself to serve me while I eat and drink, and afterward you may eat and drink’?

9Tamulumbi pe mulanda nkaambo wamuchitila nzyamutuma, ulamulumba na?Does he thank the servant because he did what he was told?

10Akulindinywe mbukubede, na mwachita zyoonse nzimwatumwa, mweelede kuti “Tuli balanda bateelede pe, twachita biyo nzitweelede kuchita.”So you also, when you have done everything commanded of you, should say, ‘We are unworthy servants; we have only done our duty.’”

11Kwakasika kuti kachiyobweenda kaya ku Jelusalema, wakalikuyabwiinda mumugaano wa Samaliya a Galili.While Jesus was on His way to Jerusalem, He was passing between Samaria and Galilee.

12Naakanjila mulilimwi gunzi, ooko wakatambulwa abamwi baalumi balikumi bakali aachipele. Bakiimina kule anguweAs He entered one of the villages, He was met by ten lepers. They stood at a distance

13mpawo bakasumpula majwi aabo, bakati, Jesu, Mwami ba aluse kulindiswe.”and raised their voices, shouting, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”

14Naakababona, wakati kulimbabo, “Amwiinke mukalitondeezye kubapayizi.” Mpawo chakachitika kuti nibakali kuyabwiinka bakasalazigwa.When Jesus saw them, He said, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And as they were on their way, they were cleansed.

15Umwi wabo naakabona kuti wakali waponesegwa, wakabweeda musule, ajwi pati kayabulumbayizya Leza.When one of them saw that he was healed, he came back, praising God in a loud voice.

16Wakafugama kumawulu aa Jesu akumupa kulumba. wakali mu SamaliyaHe fell facedown at Jesus’ feet in thanksgiving to Him—and he was a Samaritan.

17Jesu naakasandula, wakati, “teensi balikumi na basalazigwa? Balikuli bamwi musanu abane?“Were not all ten cleansed?” Jesus asked. “Where then are the other nine?

18Tekwalikwe na bamwi beelede kuboola kuzopa bulemu kuli Leza kwiinda ooyu muzwamasi?”Was no one found except this foreigner to return and give glory to God?”

19Wwakati kulinguwe, “Nyampuka weende. Lusyomo lwako lwakuponia.”Then Jesus said to him, “Rise and go; your faith has made you well!”

20Naakabuzigwa aba Falisi kuti bwami bwa Leza buyoosika lili, Jesu wakabasandula watgi, “Bwami bwa Leza tabusiki aakubulangisisya.When asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, “The kingdom of God will not come with observable signs.

21Nakuti nimuyoomvwa kakutgwa, 'Amulange mbobu!, na 'Amulange mbobuya!', nkaambo amulange bwami bwa Leza buli mulindinywe.”Nor will people say, ‘Look, here it is,’ or ‘There it is.’ For you see, the kingdom of God is in your midst.”

22Wakati kuli basikwiiya bakwe, “Ayoosika mazuba ngimuykoolombozya kubona buzuba bomwe bwaMwana wa Muntu pesi tamukoyoobubona pe.Then He said to the disciples, “The time is coming when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, but you will not see it.

23Mpawo bayoti kulindinywe, 'Amulange, aano! Amulange, okuya!' Pesi tamukazwi pe kukuyobatobela,People will tell you, ‘Look, there He is!’ or ‘Look, here He is!’ Do not go out or chase after them.

24mbuli kalabi mbukamweka chakumunika kuzwa kulilimwi bbazu lya julu kakaboneka kulilimbi bbazu, mbatakabe alakwe Mwana wa Muntu mubuzuba bwakwe.For just as the lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one end to the other, so will be the Son of Man in His day.

25Pesi weelede kusyonsegwa kuzintu zyhiingi akukakwa aleeli zyalane.But first He must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.

26Mbuli muzyakachitika kumazuba aa Noah, ziyoochitika mumazuba aa Mwana wa Muntu.Just as it was in the days of Noah, so also will it be in the days of the Son of Man:

27Bakali kulya, bakali kunywa, bakali kukwata, bakali kukwatwa, kuyoosika buunsi Noah mbwakanjila mubwaato - mpawo zaambangulwe lyakasika akubanyonyoona boonse.People were eating and drinking, marrying and being given in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark. Then the flood came and destroyed them all.

28Ambubo mbuli mbuzyakachitika kumazuba aa Lot, bakali kulya, bakalikunywa, bakali kuula, bakali kuuzya, bakalikubyala akuyaka.It was the same in the days of Lot: People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building.

29Pesi mubuzuba Lot mbwaakazwa mu Sodomu, kwakawa mulilo wa salufa kuzwa kujulu wabanyonyoona boonse.But on the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.

30Munzila njiyeeyo mbukutakabe mubuzuba bwa Mwana wa Muntu nataka yubununwe.It will be just like that on the day the Son of Man is revealed.

31Mubuzuba oobo tamukaleeki ooyo uli aakaluli kang'anda kuti akaselele akeezye kugwisizya aanze zintu zyakwe zili mung'anda. Alubo tamukamuleki ulikumunda akaboole.On that day, let no one on the housetop come down to retrieve his possessions. Likewise, let no one in the field return for anything he has left behind.

32Amuyeye mukayintu wa Lot.Remember Lot’s wife!

33Ooyo weezya kutabilila buumi bwakwe bulamuswekela pesi ooyo usweekelwa buumi bwakwe ulabubamba.Whoever tries to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life will preserve it.

34Ndamwaambila, muli oobo buzuba kunooli bantu babili aabulo, umwi uyoobwezwa, mpawo umwi uyoochala.I tell you, on that night two people will be in one bed: one will be taken and the other left.

35Kunooli banakazi babili balikutwa antoomwe. Umwi uykoobwezwa, umwi uyoochaala. - Muli Luka 17: 36, Malembe mabotu aachiindi taakwe munchali 36 pe.Two women will be grinding grain together: one will be taken and the other left.”

36Kuyooba babili mumuunda, umwi uyoobwezwa umwi uyochaala. Bakamubuzya bati, “Ikuli, Mwami?” Mpawo wakati kulimbabo, “Aawo aanoli chidumbu, aawo makubi ayoobungana antoomwe.”Not in the BSB

37Bakamubuzya kuti, “Nkokuli Mwami?” Wakati kuli mbabo, “Oko kuli mutunta, nkonkuko kuyobungana makubi antomwe.”“Where, Lord?” they asked. Jesus answered, “Wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather.”
