Luke 17 (MPA) · Opened

1Yesu akabhapwaghi bhabhulwa bhaki, “Anaipitalya hindu yamaheli yeyampelakya mundu kuhenga mahoku, nambu anaachibhonaje mundu jola joaghatenda ghapitalyaje!Jesus said to His disciples, “It is inevitable that stumbling blocks will come, but woe to the one through whom they come!

2Ikabya mbanga mundu hoju akongakika liganga la kuyaghila pahingu na kundeke mu bahali kuliku kuntenda jumu wa bhachoku abhabha atenda mahoku.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.

3Kwa ndandi ajeji mulilendaje. “Ngati ndongu waku anaakuhokihi, undakalya, na anaang'anambwiki na kukotoka lihoku laki, undekakyaje.Watch yourselves. If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.

4Ngati anaakuhoki mala saba pa lichobha limu, na anaakelawiki mala saba na kupwagha, ‘Ng'anambwiki na kughaleka mahoku ghangu,’ upalika undekakyaje.”Even if he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times returns to say, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.”

5Mitumi bhaki bhakumpwaghi Bambo, “Utujonjukya uhobhalelu.”The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!”

6Bambo akapwaghike, “Ngati uhobhalelu winu ukabhi uchoku hata ngati imbeju njoku ja haladali, mukabya muweziki kuupwaghi nkongu wa mtini aghoghu, ‘Utupukaje, na ukalipanda mubahali,’ nawombi ukabya unjetakile.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.

7“Tupwagha jumu winu abhi na mundu joandemela mungonda au kundimila mambeleli ghaki. Muhenga lihengu jola paahika kuhuma kungonda, bho, aweza le kumpwaghi, ‘Uhika kinyata, utama pahi, na ukula chilebhe?’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’?

8Ngabhela! Jombi anampwaghila, ‘Kutumbula ndelakya chilebhi na undumakya mbaka panijomula kula na kunywa, na panihapa nde uweza kula na kunywa!’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’?

9Bho, ngaanchenguli mtumika hoju kwa ndandi ahengiki ghala ghaandaghalakile?Does he thank the servant because he did what he was told?

10Bhelabhela nanamu ananjomwi kuhenga kila chindu chechumpalika kuhenga, mpwagha, ‘Tepani twa bhatumika pela twanga na nyonjeka, tuhengiki pe ghaghapalika tuhengaje.’ ”So you also, when you have done everything commanded of you, should say, ‘We are unworthy servants; we have only done our duty.’”

11Yesu paakabhi mumwanja wa kujenda ku Yelusalemu, akapetiki mukulindakani mwa muchi wa Samalia na wa Galilaya.While Jesus was on His way to Jerusalem, He was passing between Samaria and Galilee.

12Paakabhi ajingi mu chijiji chimu, akahimangini na bhandu komi bhana malohi. Bhakajemi cha kutali,As He entered one of the villages, He was met by ten lepers. They stood at a distance

13bhakajamalili, bhakapwaghaje, “Yesu! Bambo utubhonila chiha!”and raised their voices, shouting, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”

14Yesu paakabhaweni, akabhapwaghile, “Njenda mkalilangia kwa bhapenganyambiku.” Pabhakabhi mwindela bhakajendaje, bhakalamike.When Jesus saw them, He said, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And as they were on their way, they were cleansed.

15Jumu wabhu paaliweni kubha alamike, akakelawiki kwaka Yesu koni akundumbalya Chapanga kwa kujamalila.When one of them saw that he was healed, he came back, praising God in a loud voice.

16Akalileki pahi palongi ja magholu ghaka Yesu koni akunchengulaje. Mundu jonihoju akabhi Msamalia.He fell facedown at Jesus’ feet in thanksgiving to Him—and he was a Samaritan.

17Yesu akalalukile, “Bho, nga bhandu komi le bhabhalamike? Bho, tisa bhala bhabhi kwako?“Were not all ten cleansed?” Jesus asked. “Where then are the other nine?

18Bho, ngacheabhonakini mundu jongi joakelawiki kundumbali Chapanga nambu ngeni ajoju pela?”Was no one found except this foreigner to return and give glory to God?”

19Bhela Yesu akumpwaghi mundu jola, “Ujemaje, ujendaje, uhobhalelu waku ukulamihe.”Then Jesus said to him, “Rise and go; your faith has made you well!”

20Chikahi chimu Mafalisayo bhakundaluki Yesu, “Bho, Ukolongwa waka Chapanga anauhika lile?” Yesu akabhayangike, “Ukolongwa waka Chapanga ngacheuhika kwa kubhonikana kwa mihu.When asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, “The kingdom of God will not come with observable signs.

21Nga jumu joanawezaje kupwagha, ‘Lingalyaje, ubhi pambane, au ubhi pala.’ Chakaka Ukolongwa waka Chapanga ubhi mkati jinu.”Nor will people say, ‘Look, here it is,’ or ‘There it is.’ For you see, the kingdom of God is in your midst.”

22Bhela Yesu akabhapwaghi bhabhulwa bhaki, “Machobha ghahika pamwitokulya kubhona lichobha limu pa machobha ghaka Mwana waka Mundu, nambu ngamwalibhone.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.

23Bhandu bhampwaghila, ‘Ndingalya abhi kola!’ Au ‘Ndingalya abhi pambane!’ Nambu ngamwibhoka pambile na kubhajengalela.People will tell you, ‘Look, there He is!’ or ‘Look, here He is!’ Do not go out or chase after them.

24Kwa ndandi ngati unang'anu wa chitobhi moubhonakela kunani na kumulika kutumbula upambala ghumu mbaka upambala ghongi, bhenibhela nde Mwana waka Mundu moayibhonakanya mu lichobha leanahikaje.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.

25Nambu mangani ja mambu ghanihagha ghokapi anaang'ahakika namaa na kukanakika na bhandu bha kibheleku chenu.But first He must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.

26Ngati mokwabheli pa machobha ghaka Nuhu, nde mokwibhelila pa machobha gha kuhika kwaka Mwana waka Mundu.Just as it was in the days of Noah, so also will it be in the days of the Son of Man:

27Machobha ghanighala bhandu bhakabhi bhakula na kunywa, bhakatoghula na kutoghuleka, mbaka lichobha lela Nuhu paajingala mu sitima ngolongwa jejilowakeka safina. Na panihapa iyula ngolongwa jakatonyiki na kubhakoma bhokapi.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.

28Kwibya bhenibhela ngati mokwabheli pa machobha ghaka Lutu. Bhandu bhakabhi bhakula na kunywa, bhakalomba na kulombesa, bhakapanda imbeju na kuchenga.It was the same in the days of Lot: People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building.

29Nambu lichobha Lutu paakabhokiki ku Sodoma, motu na maganga ghaghabhelela motu ghakahawiki pahi kuhuma kunani kumahunde na kubhakoma bhokapi.But on the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.

30Bhenibhela nde mokwibhelila lichobha lela Mwana waka Mundu paanahikaje.It will be just like that on the day the Son of Man is revealed.

31“Mu Lichobha heli, mundu jokapi joayibya kunani ja nhwaghala ngaayihuluka kujingi munyumba na kutola hindu yaki. Bhelabhela mundu joayibya kungonda ngaikelabhuka kunyumba kutola chindu.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.

32Mkombuka ghala ghaghumpatiki nhwanu waka Lutu.Remember Lot’s wife!

33Mundu jokapi joapala kuukengale womi waki, anauhoaje, nambu mundu jola joapala kuuhoa womi waki, anaukengalyaje.Whoever tries to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life will preserve it.

34Numpwaghila, ikilu heji, bhandu bhabheli bhibya bhaghoni pachitanda chimu, jumu ayitolakikaje na jongi kuhighalila.I tell you, on that night two people will be in one bed: one will be taken and the other left.

35Akambomba bhabheli bhibya bhapola mahunu papamu, jumu ayitolakikaje na jongi kuhighalila.Two women will be grinding grain together: one will be taken and the other left.”

36Bhandu bhabheli bhibya kungonda, jumu ayitolakikaje na jongi kuhighalila.”Not in the BSB

37Panihapa bhabhulwa bhaki bhakundalukile, “Bambo, bho, mambu ghanihagha ghitendakika kwako?” Yesu akabhayangiki, “Pandu papibya na ntuhi, panihapa nde payalibhongana ngwahe.”“Where, Lord?” they asked. Jesus answered, “Wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather.”
