Luke 8 (KDC2014)

1Hamwande Yesu kafunga mwanza, kabitila mna gamabuga na vijiji kowapetela wanhu Mbuli Inogile ya Undewa wa Mulungu. Wanahina zake longo na wabili wachola nayo.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,

2Watwanzi wayagwe wakalile walavigwe vinyamkela na kuhonyigwa mitamu yao vivija wamkweleleza. Watwanzi awo wakala Malia, yakemigwe Magidalena, ija yalavigwe vinyamkela saba,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 mwehe wake Kuza yakalile msang'hanaji mkulu mna ikae ya mndewa Helode, na Suzana, na watwanzi wayagwe wengi. Watwanzi awo wakala wosola vinhu vao na kuwataza Yesu na wanahina zake.Joanna the wife of Herod’s household manager Chuza, Susanna, and many others. These women were ministering to them out of their own means.

4Wanhu wagendelela kwiza kwa Yesu kulawa kila buga. Lunhu mkulu viluitig'hane hamoja, Yesu kalulongela lusimo luno.While a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from town after town, He told them this parable:

5“Kukala na munhu kachola kuhanda mbeyu mumgunda wake. Viyakalile komiza izimbeyu, mbeyu ziyagwe zilagalila mnzila, wanhu wazibojoga, na ndege wazija.“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.

6Mbeyu ziyagwe zilagalila mdibwe hali na udongo kidogo. Vizotile, zinyala kwavija udongo ukala waduhu unyefu.Some fell on rocky ground, and when it came up, the seedlings withered because they had no moisture.

7Mbeyu ziyagwe zilagalila mna ivisolo va miba. Miba ikula na izizonga zimbeyu.Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up with it and choked the seedlings.

8Mbeyu ziyagwe zilagalila mna udongo unogile. Zikula na kulela mbeyu nyingi kubanza zija zihandigwe, kila mbeyu ilela miyanza malongo longo.” Yesu viyalongile avo, kalonga kwa sauti ng'hulu, “Munhu yeli na magwiti, yahulike!”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.”

9Wanahina zake Yesu wamuuza fambulo da lusimo luno.Then His disciples asked Him what this parable meant.

10Yesu kawedika, “Mweye mutendigwa kuzijuwa mbuli zifisigwe za Undewa wa Mulungu. Lakini kwa wanhu wayagwe, nolonga kwa simo, muladi walole lakini sekewone, na wategeleze lakini sekewajuwe.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“Dino ijo fambulo da muhandaji, mbeyu ni mbuli ya Mulungu.Now this is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God.

12Zija zilagalile mnzila zolagusa wanhu waja iwohulika mbuli ya Mulungu, lakini Mwenembago kokwiza na kuisola mbuli ayo mmizoyo yao muladi waleke kutogola na kukomboligwa.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.

13Mbeyu zilagalile mdibwe zolagusa wanhu waja wohulika mbuli ya Mulungu na kuibokela kwa kudeng'helela, lakini mbuli ayo haika mizizi mgati mmwao. Woitogola kwa kipindi kidodo, lakini wahagezigwa woileka mbuli ayo.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.

14Mbeyu zilagalile mvisolo va miba zolagusa wanhu waja wohulika mbuli ya Mulungu, lakini viwogendelela, Mbuli ayo yozongigwa zongigwa na magayo, na utajili, na kudeng'helela vinhu va mwiisi. Wanhu awo hawalela bule matunda gonda gakangale.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.

15Lakini mbeyu zilagalile hali na udongo unogile zolagusa wanhu waja iwohulika mbuli ya Mulungu na kuika mmizoyo yao na kuitogola, wofunga umoyo mbaka wolela matunda.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“Wanhu hawabwinha taa kuigubika na kikalango hebu kuika muuvungu wa lusazi. Lakini woika hana ikingolobweda, muladi wanhu viwokwingila wone mulenge.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“Kinhu chochose kifisigwe chokwikigwa hanhu hazelu, na kinhu chochose kigubikigwe chojuwika na kugaligwa hana umulenge.For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be made known and brought to light.

18“Avo muiteganye na gaja gomuhulika, kwavija munhu yeli na kinhu kokongezeligwa, lakini ija yeliduhu kinhu kobokigwa hata kija kidodo kiyogesa kanacho.”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.”

19Mamake na ndugu zake Yesu wamcholela, lakini hawadahile kumvikila habehi mbuli ya lunhu lwa wanhu.Then Jesus’ mother and brothers came to see Him, but they were unable to reach Him because of the crowd.

20Munhu imoja kamulongela Yesu, “Mamako na ndugu zako wema kunze, wolonda kukona.”He was told, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to see You.”

21Yesu kawalongela wanhu wose, “Mamangu na ndugu zangu ni waja woihulika mbuli ya Mulungu na kuitenda.”But He replied, “My mother and brothers are those who hear the word of God and carry it out.”

22Siku dimoja Yesu kakwela mwiingalawa hamoja na wanahina zake, kawalongela, “Tuloke umwambu.” Avo wasonga umwanza.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.

23Viwakalile muumwanza, Yesu kawasa. Bahaja nyukwanyukwa da beho disonga kubuma mna idilamba, na ngalawa isonga kumema mazi, avo wose wakala mdizumozumo.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.

24Wanahina wamgendela Yesu wamulamusa, wamulongela, “Go mkulu! Go mkulu! Tofa!” Yesu kalamuka, kadikomhokela beho na ng'humbi ya mazi. Vose vinyamala na kukala tuluu.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.

25Abaho kawalongela wanahina zake, “Tamanilo jenu da kwahi?” Lakini awo wakanganya na kudumba, wailongela, “Ino munhu gani? Kodikomhokela beho na ng'humbi, navo vomuhulka!”“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!”

26Yesu na wanahina zake wavika kuna imhwani ya isi ya Wagelasi, muumwambu wa lamba kulawa Galilaya.Then they sailed to the region of the Gerasenes, across the lake from Galilee.

27Viyahumuluke mwiingalawa, kamting'hana munhu imoja yeli na vinyamkela, yalawile kudibuga. Miyaka mingi munhu ayo kakala havala kiwalo wala hasinya ukayake, lakini kakala yokala kuna gamapanga.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.

28Viyamone Yesu, kaibwanha mmagulu ga Yesu, kaguta mizangi yolonga, “Gweye Yesu! Mwana wa Mulungu yeli Uchanha Ng'hani! Kolonda kunitenda choni? Nokupula, sekeunidununze!”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!”

29Kalonga avo kwavija Yesu kakala yamulagize ikinyamkela yamulawe munhu ayo. Miyanza mingi kinyamkela ayo kakala yomkumba munhu ayo. Hamoja wanhu wakala womgodeka mng'anda kuno makono gake na magulu gake gagodekigwa minyololo na mhingu, lakini kakala yokanha, na kinyamkela ayo kakala yomkimbiza mbaka kuluwala.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.

30Yesu kamuuza munhu ija, “Twaga jako nani?” Kamwidika, “Twaga jangu Lunhu.” Kalonga avo kwavija vinyamkela wengi wakala wamkumbile.“What is your name?” Jesus asked. “Legion,” he replied, because many demons had gone into him.

31Vinyamkela waja wampula Yesu sekeyawagale kuna dikolombo dikulu.And the demons kept begging Jesus not to order them to go into the Abyss.

32Habehi na aho kukala na bumbila kulu da nguluwe wakalile woja kukigongo. Avo vinyamkela wampula Yesu yawatogolele wawakumbe nguluwe. Yesu kawatogolela.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.

33Vinyamkela wamulawa munhu ija, wawengila nguluwe. Bumbila jose da nguluwe dihumulukila mwiingema ya idilamba, wengila mdilamba, wose wafa mgamazi.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.

34Wanhu wakalile wowadima nguluwe awo wachona acho kilawilile, wakimbila na wazibwililisa mbuli azo kudibuga na mvijiji.When those tending the pigs saw what had happened, they ran off and reported this in the town and countryside.

35Wanhu wachola kulola kija kilawilile. Viwavikile kwa Yesu, wamona munhu ija yalavigwe vinyamkela kakala mmagulu ga Yesu, kavala viwalo, kana nzewele zake. Wanhu wose wadumba.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.

36Na waja wayonile mbuli ayo, wawalongela wanhu vija munhu ayo yakalile na vinyamkela viyahonyigwe.Meanwhile, those who had seen it reported how the demon-possessed man had been healed.

37Abaho wanhu wose wa isi ija ya Wagelasi wampula Yesu yalawanye, kwavija wakala wadumbile ng'hani. Avo Yesu kakwela mwiingalawa na kulawanya.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.

38Munhu ija yalavigwe vinyamkela kampula Yesu wachole wose. Lakini Yesu hamtogolele, kamulongela,The man whom the demons had left begged to go with Jesus. But He sent him away, saying,

39“Bwela ukayako ukawalongele wanhu gose gayakutendele Mulungu.” Avo munhu ija kachola kila hanhu kudibuga dija, kawapetela wanhu mbuli zose ziyatendeligwe na Yesu.“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 viyabwelile mwambu uyagwe wa lamba, wanhu wambokela kwa deng'ho kwavija wose wakala wombeta.When Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed Him, for they had all been waiting for Him.

41Abaho keza munhu imoja, twaga jake Yailo. Munhu ayo kakala mkulu wa ng'anda ya kumpula Mulungu. Kamfugamila Yesu, kampula yachole ukayake,Just then a synagogue leader named Jairus came and fell at Jesus’ feet. He begged Him to come to his house,

42kwavija mndele wake yeli yaiyeka kakala mmabehi kufa. Mndele ayo kakala na miyaka longo na mibili. Yesu viyakalile kochola, wanhu wakala womsung'ha sung'ha kila mwambu.because his only daughter, who was about twelve, was dying. As Jesus went with him, the crowds pressed around Him,

43Mna dibumbila dija da wanhu, kukala na mtwanzi imoja yakalile na utamu wa kutumika kwa miyaka longo na mibili. Kakala yamambukize vinhu vake vose kwa waganga, lakini kuduhu munhu yadahile kumuhonya.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.

44Mtwanzi ija kamcholela Yesu kukisogo, kakwasa mhindo ya kiwalo cha Yesu, bahaja kutumika kuleka.She came up behind Jesus and touched the fringe of His cloak, and immediately her bleeding stopped.

45Yesu kauza, “Nani yanikwasile?” Wanhu wose wabela. Petulo kalonga, “Go mkulu, wanhu wose wakuzunguluka na kukusung'ha sung'ha.”“Who touched Me?” Jesus asked. But they all denied it. “Master,” said Peter, “the people are crowding and pressing against You.”

46Lakini Yesu kalonga, “Kuna munhu kanikwasa, kwavija nihulika nguvu zinilawa.”But Jesus declared, “Someone touched Me, for I know that power has gone out from Me.”

47Mtwanzi ija viyone hadaha kuifisa, keza yogwaya, kaibwanha mmagulu ga Yesu. Baho mgameso ga wanhu, kamulongela Yesu habali kakwasa mhindo ya kiwalo chake, na vija viyahonyigwe bahaja.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 kamulongela, “Mwanangu, kutamanila kwako kukuhonya. Chola moyo uholile.”“Daughter,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you. Go in peace.”

49Yesu viyakalile yang'hali yolonga, msenga kulawa ukayake Yailo keza, kamulongela Yailo, “Mndele wako kamala kufa, avo sekeumgaze Mfundiza.”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.”

50Lakini Yesu viyahulike avo, kamulongela Yailo, “Sekeudumbe, gweye togola tu, mndele wako kohona.”But Jesus overheard them and said to Jairus, “Do not be afraid; just believe, and she will be healed.”

51Viyavikile kuna ing'anda ya Yailo, Yesu kawagomesa wanhu sekewengile hamoja nayo, ila kengila na Petulo na Yohana, na Yakobo na tatake na mamake mndele ayo.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.

52Wanhu wose wakala wolila na kumuyalalila imwana. Yesu kawalongela, “Sekemulile, kwavija imwana hafile bule, kawasa tu!”Meanwhile, everyone was weeping and mourning for her. But Jesus said, “Stop weeping; she is not dead but asleep.”

53Wanhu wose wamseka kwavija wakala wajuwile imwana kakala yafile.And they laughed at Him, knowing that she was dead.

54Lakini Yesu kamgoga mkono, kamulongela, “Mwanangu, lamuka!”But Jesus took her by the hand and called out, “Child, get up!”

55Ugima wake umbwelela mndele ija, bahaja kalamuka. Abaho Yesu kawalagiza wamgwee lujo.Her spirit returned, and at once she got up. And He directed that she be given something to eat.

56Tatake na mamake wakanganya ng'hani, lakini Yesu kawagomesa sekewamulongele munhu yoyose kija kilawilile.Her parents were astounded, but Jesus ordered them not to tell anyone what had happened.
