Luke 5 (KDC2014)

1Siku dimoja Yesu kakala yemile mumgwazo wa lamba da Genesaleti. Wanhu wengi wakala woisung'ha sung'ha wategeleza mbuli ya Mulungu.On one occasion, while Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret with the crowd pressing in on Him to hear the word of God,

2Yesu kazona ngalawa mbili zikalile mwiingema ya lamba, zilekigwe na wavuwa somba, wakalile wosunha mizavu yao.He saw two boats at the edge of the lake. The fishermen had left them and were washing their nets.

3Yesu kengila mwiingalawa imoja ikalile ya Simoni, kamulonda Simoni yaikwese mgamazi. Abaho Yesu kakala mwiingalawa, kafundiza lunhu luja.Jesus got into the boat belonging to Simon and asked him to put out a little from shore. And sitting down, He taught the people from the boat.

4Viyamambukize kufundiza, kamulongela Simoni, “Kwesa ingalawa mbaka kuna gamazi mengi, abaho gweye na wayago mupigise mizavu yenu muvuwe somba.”When Jesus had finished speaking, He said to Simon, “Put out into deep water and let down your nets for a catch.”

5Simoni kamwidika, “Go mkulu, tusang'hana ng'hani kilo kigima lakini hatupatile kinhu bule. Lakini kamba gweye kolonga avo, nogela mizavu yangu mgamazi.”“Master,” Simon replied, “we have worked hard all night without catching anything. But because You say so, I will let down the nets.”

6Wapigisa mizavu yao, somba wengi wanamata mbaka mizavu yao ilonda kudegeka.When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to tear.

7Avo wawakema wayao wakalile mwiingalawa iyagwe weze kuwataza. Wayao weza na wazimemeza ngalawa zose mbili, zose zikala zimemile somba mbaka zilonda kudidimila.So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.

8Simoni Petulo viyachonile kija kilawilile, kamfugamila Yesu mmagulu, kalonga, “Mndewa, segela haulongozi wangu, niye nimema nzambi!”When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees. “Go away from me, Lord,” he said, “for I am a sinful man.”

9Simoni na wayage wakanganya ng'hani mbuli ya somba wengi wawapatile.For he and his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken,

10Vivija wayage Simoni, Yakobo na Yohana, wanage Zebedayo, nao wakanganya. Yesu kamulongela Simoni, “Sekeudumbe. Kulawa sambi kokuwa mvuwaji wa wanhu.”and so were his partners James and John, the sons of Zebedee. “Do not be afraid,” Jesus said to Simon. “From now on you will catch men.”

11Wazilava ngalawa zao kunze mumgwazo, wavileka vinhu vose, wamkweleleza Yesu.And when they had brought their boats ashore, they left everything and followed Him.

12Yesu viyakalile kudibuga dimoja, kukala na munhu imoja yakalile na utamu wa dikulu. Viyamonile Yesu, kaibwanha hasi, kampula, “Go mkulu, wahalonda, kodaha kunihonya!”While Jesus was in one of the towns, a man came along who was covered with leprosy. When he saw Jesus, he fell facedown and begged Him, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”

13Yesu kagolosa mkono wake, kamkwasa. Kalonga, “Nolonda, hona!” Bahaja utamu wa dikulu umulawa munhu ija.Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him.

14Yesu kamulagiza, “Sekeumulongele munhu yoyose, lakini goga inzila mbaka kwa mulava nhosa ukailaguse, abaho kalave nhosa kamba viyalagize Musa ili kutenda kila munhu yatogole kamba kuhonyigwa.”“Do not tell anyone,” Jesus instructed him. “But go, show yourself to the priest and present the offering Moses prescribed for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”

15Lakini mbuli za Yesu zibwililika kila hanhu. Wanhu wengi weza kumtegeleza na kuhonyigwa mitamu yao.But the news about Jesus spread all the more, and great crowds came to hear Him and to be healed of their sicknesses.

16Lakini Yesu kacholaga hanhu kuduhu wanhu na kampula Mulungu.Yet He frequently withdrew to the wilderness to pray.

17Siku dimoja Yesu viyakalile kofundiza, Mafalisayo wayagwe na wafundiza Malagizo ga Musa wakala aho. Wakala walawile kila buga mwiisi ya Galilaya na Yudea na kulawa Yelusalemu. Nguvu ya Mndewa ikala hamoja na Yesu kuwahonya watamu.One day Jesus was teaching, and the Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there. People had come from Jerusalem and from every village of Galilee and Judea, and the power of the Lord was present for Him to heal the sick.

18Wanhu wayagwe weza kuno wampapa mulusazi munhu yaholole. Wageza kumwingiza mng'anda wamwike haulongozi wa Yesu.Just then some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They tried to bring him inside to set him before Jesus,

19Lakini hawapatile nzila ya kumwingiza mng'anda, kwavija kukala na lunhu lwa wanhu. Avo wamsola mtamu wao, wamgala uchanha kukiswili, watobola zonzo. Abaho wamuhumulusa na lusazi lwake mbaka hagati ya lunhu lwa wanhu, wamwika haulongozi wa Yesu.but they could not find a way through the crowd. So they went up on the roof and lowered him on his mat through the tiles into the middle of the crowd, right in front of Jesus.

20Yesu viyone kutamanila kwao, kamulongela munhu ija, “Mbwigangu, nzambi zako zigeligwa kumgongo.”When Jesus saw their faith, He said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”

21Wafundiza Malagizo ga Musa na Mafalisayo wasonga kuiuza, “Munhu gani ino kolonga mbuli za kumuliga Mulungu? Mulungu yaiyeka ayo yodaha kuzigela kumgongo nzambi za wanhu!”But the scribes and Pharisees began thinking to themselves, “Who is this man who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

22Yesu kajuwa viwagesile, avo kawalongela, “Habali mogesa avo?Knowing what they were thinking, Jesus replied, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?

23Choni kibuhile, kulonga, ‘Nzambi zako zigeligwa kumgongo,’ hebu kulonga, ‘Ima utembele’?Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’?

24Lakini nolonda mujuwe kamba Mwana wa Munhu kana udahi mwiisi wa kuzigela kumgongo nzambi za wanhu.” Abaho kamulongela munhu ija yaholole, “Nokulongela, ima, papa lusazi lwako, uchole ukayako!”But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on the earth to forgive sins…” He said to the paralytic, “I tell you, get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”

25Bahaja munhu ija kenuka mgameso ga wanhu, kapapa lusazi lwake mumo muyatambalale, kachola ukayake kuno komtogola Mulungu.And immediately the man stood up before them, took what he had been lying on, and went home glorifying God.

26Wanhu wose wakanganya ng'hani na kudumba! Wamtogola Mulungu walonga, “Lelo tona unzonza!”Everyone was taken with amazement and glorified God. They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.”

27Abaho Yesu kachola na kamona mbokela kodi yakemigwe Lawi kakala mng'anda ya kusolela kodi. Yesu kamulongela, “Nikweleleze.”After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him,

28Lawi kenuka, kaleka kila kinhu, kamkweleleza.and Levi got up, left everything, and followed Him.

29Abaho Lawi kamtendela Yesu nyimwili nyimwili ng'hulu ukayake. Vivija kukala na wabokela kodi wengi na wanhu wayagwe wagonekigwe.Then Levi hosted a great banquet for Jesus at his house. A large crowd of tax collectors was there, along with others who were eating with them.

30Mafalisayo na wafundiza Malagizo ga Musa wayagwe wakalile aho wawauza wanahina wa Yesu, “Habali moja na kung'wa hamoja na wabokela kodi na wanhu wotenda nzambi?”But the Pharisees and their scribes complained to Jesus’ disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”

31Yesu kawedika, “Wanhu wagima hawalonda mganga, lakini waja weli watamu womulonda mganga.Jesus answered, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.

32Sizile kuwakema wanhu wogesa wanoga, lakini niza kuwakema waja wene nzambi waleke.”I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”

33Wanhu wayagwe wamulongela Yesu, “Wanahina wa Yohana Mbatizaji wofunga kuja miyanza mingi na kumpula Mulungu, na wanahina wa Mafalisayo wotenda vivo, lakini wanahina zako woja na kung'wa.”Then they said to Him, “John’s disciples and those of the Pharisees frequently fast and pray, but Yours keep on eating and drinking.”

34Yesu kawedika, “Vino mogesa wanhu wagonekigwe kuna idizengele wodaha kufunga kuja kipindi munhu yosola kahamoja nao? Havidahika bule!Jesus replied, “Can you make the guests of the bridegroom fast while He is with them?

35Lakini kipindi chokwiza, munhu yosola vonda yasegezigwe kumwao, baho wofunga kuja.”But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.”

36Abaho Yesu kawalongela lusimo luno, “Kuduhu munhu yokanha kilaka mkiwalo cha sambi na kukika mkiwalo cha umwaka. Yahatenda avo, kokinanga kija kiwalo cha sambi, na kilaka acho honda kiigale na kiwalo cha umwaka.He also told them a parable: “No one tears a piece of cloth from a new garment and sews it on an old one. If he does, he will tear the new garment as well, and the patch from the new will not match the old.

37Vivija kuduhu munhu yogida divai ya sambi mna mifuko ya ng'hwembe ya umwaka. Kwavija yahatenda avo, divai ya sambi yoitula mifuko ayo ya umwaka, divai yokwitika, na mifuko yobanangika.And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the new wine will burst the skins, the wine will spill, and the wineskins will be ruined.

38Divai ya sambi yogidigwa mmifuko ya ng'hwembe ya sambi!Instead, new wine is poured into new wineskins.

39Kuduhu munhu yolonda divai ya sambi yahamambukiza kung'wa ya umwaka. Kwavija kolonga, ‘Ya umwaka inoga ng'hani.’ ”And no one after drinking old wine wants new, for he says, ‘The old is better.’”
