Luke 5 (MGV) · Opened

1Lisoba limu, Yesu jabiya jujemiki pulutengu juhanga uku Genesaleti na papuje bandu batei kuntwelale koni babiya anyongaliti, bajoannya Lilobi laka Sapanga.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,

2Jijibona minhwatu jibeli mulutengu ju nhanga, jebijileka alobo homba bababia abokani apiti kutabulana ilepa yabu.He saw two boats at the edge of the lake. The fishermen had left them and were washing their nets.

3Yesu jajingala munhwatu gumu waka Simoni, ampwagila Simoni juhegakya nhwatu kuhuma mulutengu ju nhanga mbaka mmasi. Ndipala jatama pai nukugubola nsambi wa bandu koni jubi munhwatu.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.

4Pajajomula kubola, ampwagila Simoni, “Gukanga nhwatu we hogu mbaka papanyoliki ndienu wakalekala ilepa yaku mmasi gulopua homba.”When Jesus had finished speaking, He said to Simon, “Put out into deep water and let down your nets for a catch.”

5Simoni ampwagila, “Bambu! Tuhengiki lihengu likolongu le heli kelukelu bila kupata sindu sokapi. Lakini ndaba gupwagi wehapa, nyenda kuleke ilepa mmasi.”“Master,” Simon replied, “we have worked hard all night without catching anything. But because You say so, I will let down the nets.”

6Balekala ilepa yabu mmasi na balopwi homba hingi ngamaa, mbaka ilepa yabu yatumbulya kujenduka.When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to tear.

7Henu baakema ajabu bababi mu nhwatu gongi ahika kwaajangati. Bahika, batwelakiya minhwatu joti mibeli homba mbaki yapala kuhobe mmasi.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 Petili ejagabona ganiaga, ampegila magoti Yesu koni jakapwaga, “Bambu boka palongi jangu ndaba nepani mii na mahakau!”When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees. “Go away from me, Lord,” he said, “for I am a sinful man.”

9Simoni pamu na ajaki boa basangia ndaba ja homba hingi yebalopula.For he and his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken,

10Yakobu na Yohana bana baka Zebedayu, bababii aloi ajaki Simoni batenda kusangaa ahelahe. Yesu ampwagila Simoni, “Wijogopa, tumbuka sajenu nukuendele nagutenda gubia waaleta bandu kwangu ngati ewabii gulobo homba nukupeleka kunyumba.”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.”

11Ndienu, pabaleta pe minhwatu jela pulutengu ju nhanga, bagaleka goti, nukunzengale Yesu.And when they had brought their boats ashore, they left everything and followed Him.

12Yesu ejabi musi gumu, kati ja misi ja hoku, jahika mundu jumu jojuleliki nhyega joti. Nngonzu we hoju eambona Yesu, jahabuka sukunzinamii, nukundoba Yesu, “Bambu, nagupai guwesa kunyambisa.”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 janyoosha kuboku, angusa nukupwaga, “Mbala! Gunyambisika!” Apalapa kuleleka kwatenda kumboka.Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him.

14Yesu ampwagila, “Wampwagi mundu jokapi. Ila gujenda, ukililangia kwaka nngolu nkolongu ukapia litambiku ngati Musa ejulagalakya, ili bandu boti abona wehapa gulamike.”“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 majambu gaka Yesu gajoanika ngani kila pandu. Bandu bingi bahika kunzoane na bapala jaalamisa magonzu gabu.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 kila mala jwajenda pandu panga na bandu, kola andoba Sapanga.Yet He frequently withdrew to the wilderness to pray.

17Lisoba limu Yesu pajabiya jutenda kubola, Afalisayu bangi naka abola ba malagalaki kuhuma misi juku Galilaya, ku Yudea nuku Yelusalemu, babi pala. Makili gaka Bambu gabia pamu najombi jakalamisa agonzu.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.

18Apalapa bandu bangi bahika antogwi mundu jumu jojulei angoniki pu mpandu, bapala kunzingi nkati ili bummbeka palongi jaka 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 ndaba ju nsambi wa bandu, ngasebawesiki kunzingi nkate. Ndienu, bakwela panani ju nhagaa bahotula lihotu likolongu punhagaa nukunhulu jojulei we jola pikilanda ja bandu nukumbeka palongi jaka Yesu pamu nilipega laki.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 ejukubona kuhobale kwabu, ampwagila mundu jojulei, “Nkosiwango, gulekakiwi mahakau gako.”When Jesus saw their faith, He said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”

21Abola ba malagalaki na Afalisayu batumbulya kulilaluki beni, “Boo, hajo mundu bo joantondo Sapanga? Nya jojuwesa kulekake bandu mahakao? Sapanga kajika jojuwesa kwaalekake bandu mahakau!”But the scribes and Pharisees began thinking to themselves, “Who is this man who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

22Yesu jagamanyiki mawasu gabu, jaalalukya, “Nhwasali kike mmyoju jino?Knowing what they were thinking, Jesus replied, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?

23Sa sekijojwiki, kupwaga, ‘Gulekakiwi mahakau,’ au kupwaga, ‘Jema gujendaje?’Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’?

24Ndienu, mbala mmanya Mwana waka Mundu jubi nuuwesu pundema ukulekake mahakau ga bandu.” Papuje ampwagila mundu jojulei we jola, “Jema, jukua lipega laku gujenda kuyumba jaku.”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.”

25Apalapa, mundu we jola jajema palongi jabu, jajukua lipega laki. Jajenda kunyumba jaki koni akundumbalya Sapanga.And immediately the man stood up before them, took what he had been lying on, and went home glorifying God.

26Boti basangii ngamaa! Bajogupa nuku nndumbali Sapanga koni apwaga, “Lelenu twagabweni majambu gagasangasa!”Everyone was taken with amazement and glorified God. They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.”

27Egapeta ganiaga, Yesu japita kunza ambona jojujopa kodi jumu joankema Lawi, jutemi mu nyumba jukulepe kodi. Yesu ampwagila, “Nyengalya!”After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him,

28Lawi jajema, nukukileka kila sindu nukunzengale Yesu.and Levi got up, left everything, and followed Him.

29Ndipala Lawi antendila Yesu tipati ngolongu kunyumba jaki. Nilikundi la bandu likolongu la baajopa kodi na bandu bangi babia akula pamu najombi.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.

30Lakini Afalisayu bangi naka abola ba Malagalaka baayomila banafunzi baki bakapwaga, “Ndaba jaki nkula na kunywa pamu na bandu bajopa kodi na baabi na mahakao?”But the Pharisees and their scribes complained to Jesus’ disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”

31Yesu jaajibua, “Babii bomi ngaseampala sing'anga, ila baabi agonzu ndi babumpala sing'anga.Jesus answered, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.

32Ngasenhikiki kakema bandu baamboni palongi jaka Sapanga, ila babi na mahakau, ajetakya mahakau gabu.”I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”

33Bandu bangi bumpwagila Yesu, “Banafunzi baka Yohana mmbatisa mala jingi apunga nu kuloba, hata banafunzi baka Afalisayu ahenga ahelahe. Lakini banafunzi baku akula na kunywa.”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 jaajibua, “Boo, nhwesa le kwaapenga babaakokiki pandoa kula posu na akati abii na bambu jojupunga ndoa? Ngakuwesikana!Jesus replied, “Can you make the guests of the bridegroom fast while He is with them?

35Lakini lisoba lihika bambu ndoa pabamboa kati jabu, muda we hogu ndi pabipunga kula posu.”But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.”

36Yesu jaapwagila lilenganu lende, “Mundu ngasejuseku kibambu si ingobu inyai nukusone mwiingobu jejilai. Ana jutei hela, kiijendula ingobu jejilai jejela, ni kibambu si ingobu inyai ngasilengani ni ingobu jejilai je jela.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.

37Nga mundu jojujege divai inyai mumipuku jealenganaki na ngosi ja mwandi. Ana jutei hela, divai inyai jela jitenda kututumuka nukujendu mipuku jealenganaki na ngosi je jela, divai jiitenda kujitika ni mipuku jealenganaki na ngosi jitenda kuhalabika.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.

38Lakini bandu abeka divai inyae mumipuku jealenganaki na ngosi inyae!Instead, new wine is poured into new wineskins.

39Nga mundu jojupala kunywa divai ja mwandi na divai inyai, ndaba jiipwaga, ‘Divai ja mwandi ndi ja sapi.’ ”And no one after drinking old wine wants new, for he says, ‘The old is better.’”
