Luke 5 (MPA) · Opened

1Lichobha limu Yesu akajemiki pamaheku ja Nhwanga wa Genesaleti, na panihapa bhandu bhamaheli bhakatwelile na kutumbu kukangana, koni bhakajowanya Malobhi ghaka Chapanga.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,

2Akaiweni ngalawa ibheli mumaheku ja nhwanga, yeyalekakiki na bhalohi habha bhakabhi bhajigholo mikwabhu jabho.He saw two boats at the edge of the lake. The fishermen had left them and were washing their nets.

3Yesu akajingi mu ngalawa jimu jejikabhi jaka Simoni, bhela akandobhiki Simoni akolula ngalawa jela mumachi, patali pachokopi kuhuma pamaheku ja nhwanga. Bhela akatami monimola koni akabya abhabhola lipogha la bhandu.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.

4Pajomwi kubhabhola, akampwaghi Simoni, “Uhugha ngalawa mbaka kulochi kokunyoliki na ukapendakya nkwabhu waku nahuli ulobha homba.”When Jesus had finished speaking, He said to Simon, “Put out into deep water and let down your nets for a catch.”

5Simoni akamuyangike, “Bambo, tutyalini kulobha homba ikilu jokapi panga kupata chindu, nambu kwa kubha upwaghiki wehapa, anambendakya nkwabho.”“Master,” Simon replied, “we have worked hard all night without catching anything. But because You say so, I will let down the nets.”

6Pabhakapendaki nkwabhu wabhu, bhakalobhiki homba yamahele nakanope mbaka nkwabhu wabhu utumbuka kukachuka.When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to tear.

7Bhela bhakabhalohiki bhajabu bhabhakabhi mu ngalawa najengi bhahika kubhajangatila. Bhakahikiki, bhakatwelaki homba ngalawa yokapi ibheli mbaka ipalika kujibhila.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 Petulu paaweni chela chechipitalile, akanchikimili Yesu na kupwagha, “Bambo, ubhoka palongi jangu, maghambu nepani nde mundu mwana mahoku!”When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees. “Go away from me, Lord,” he said, “for I am a sinful man.”

9Simoni papamu na bhajaki bhakakangichi kwa homba yamahele yebhalobhike.For he and his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken,

10Bhelabhela Yakobo na Yohana bhana bhaka Zebedayo, bhabhakabhi bhakochi bhaka Simoni na bhombi bhakakangiche. Yesu akumpwaghi Simoni, “Ngawijoghopa kutumbu sajenu na kujendalela anaubya undohi wa bhandu.”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.”

11Bhakahughiki ngalawa yela mbaka kumaheku, bhakahilekiki hindu yokapi na kunjengale Yesu.And when they had brought their boats ashore, they left everything and followed Him.

12Yesu paakabhi mu muchi ghumu wa Galilaya, akahikiki mundu joabhi na malohi hyegha jokapi. Ntamwa hoju paakambweni Yesu, akalihawi pahi, akalobhiki, “Bambo, ngati anaupala, uweza kung'olola!”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 akahatambwi chiwoku chaki, akankamwi na kumpwaghila, “Mbala! Ugholulikaje!” Palapala malohi ghakumbokike.Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him.

14Yesu akunkanakili, akumpwaghile, “Ngawampwaghi mundu jokapi lilobhi lenu, nambu ujenda ukalilangiya kwaka mpenganyambiku kubha ulamiki na ukabhoha nyambiku ngati moalaghalaki Musa, nahuli ubya ulandilu kwa bhandu bhokapi kubha wenga ulamike.”“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.”

15Nambu malobhi panani jaka Yesu ghakajaghani manyata pandu pokapi, na bhandu bhamahele bhakahikiki kunjowanela na bhakapaliki abhalamiha hitamwa yabhu.But the news about Jesus spread all the more, and great crowds came to hear Him and to be healed of their sicknesses.

16Nambu Yesu mala pamaheli akapiti pandu panga bhandu, na kundobha Chapanga.Yet He frequently withdrew to the wilderness to pray.

17Lichobha limu Yesu paakabhi abhola, Mafalisayo bhakumu na bhabhola bha Shelia kuhuma ku kila chijiji cha ku Galilaya, ku Yudea na ku Yelusalemu, bhakabhi bhatemi panihapa. Makili ghaka Bambo ghakabhi papamu naku kwa kubhalamiha bhatamwa.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.

18Panihapa bhandu bhakahikiki, bhuntandaini mundu jumu joatengwiki pa uleli, bhakalengiki kunjingia mkati, nahuli bhumbeka 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,

19Nambu, ngachebhaweziki kujingi mkati, kwa ndandi ja bhandu bhamaheli. Bhela bhakuntotwili bhakankwehiki panani ja nhwaghala, bhakapekanywi, na bhakunheli pa uleli mpaka pachilanda ja bhandu bhala palongi jaka 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 paakaweni uhobhalelu wabhu, akumpwaghi mundu joatengwiki, “Nkochi wangu, mahoku ghaku ghalekakiwi.”When Jesus saw their faith, He said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”

21Bhabola bha Shelia na Mafalisayo bhakatumbwi kulilaluha, “Bho, hajo mundu bholi joantondo Chapanga? Bho, nane joaweza kulekake mahoku? Chapanga kanjika jaki nde joaweza kulekake mahoku!”But the scribes and Pharisees began thinking to themselves, “Who is this man who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

22Yesu akaghamanyi maholalelu ghabhu, akabhalalukile, “Bho, muholale kiki mu mitima jinu?Knowing what they were thinking, Jesus replied, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?

23Bho, lelipepwiki nakanopi lako, kupwagha, ‘Ulekakiwi mahoku ghaku,’ au kupwagha, ‘Jemaje na ujendaje?’Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’?

24Nambu mbala mmanya kubha Mwana waka Mundu abhi na amule pundema ja kulekakela bhandu mahoku ghabhu.” Bhela akampwaghi mundu jola joatengwiki, “Nukupwaghila, jemaje, utola uleli waku, na ujendaje kunyumba 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.”

25Palapala, mundu joatengwiki jola akajemiki palongi jabhu, akatoliki uleli waki na kujenda kunyumba jaki koni akabya andumbali Chapanga.And immediately the man stood up before them, took what he had been lying on, and went home glorifying God.

26Bhandu bhokapi bhakakangichi nakanope. Bhakajowipi na bhakundumbali Chapanga, bhakapwaghaje, “Lalenu tuweni mambu gha ngangachu!”Everyone was taken with amazement and glorified God. They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.”

27Paghajomwiki ghanihagha, Yesu akapiti kunja akumbweni mundu njopa kode joalowakika Lawi, atami padowoku mu chindamba cha kulepe kode. Yesu akampwaghile, “Unyengalyaje!”After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him,

28Lawi akajemiki, akailekiki hindu yokapi, na akunjengali Yesu.and Levi got up, left everything, and followed Him.

29Lawi akantendi Yesu uwangalalu ukolongwa kunyumba jaki, na lipogha likolongwa la bhandu bhajopa kode na bhandu bhangi bhakabhi bhatemi papamu nabhu.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.

30Nambu Mafalisayo bhakumu na bhabhola bhangi bha Shelia bhakabhang'ong'ataki bhabhulwa bhaka Yesu, bhakapwaghaje, “Bho, maghambu kiki mkula na kunywa papamu na bhandu bhajopa kode na bhana mahoku?”But the Pharisees and their scribes complained to Jesus’ disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”

31Yesu akabhayangiki, “Bhandu bhangakulwala ngapabhumpala sing'anga, nambu bhatamwa nde bhabhumpala sing'anga.Jesus answered, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.

32Ngachenhikiki kubhaloha bhandu bhamboni, nambu nhikiki kubhaloha bhandu bhana mahoku bhapata kung'anambuka na kughaleka mahoku ghabhu.”I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”

33Bhandu bhangi bhakampwaghile, “Bhabulwa bhaka Yohana Mbatizaji bhakonga kula chilebhi chikahi kwa chikahi na kulobha, na bhabhulwa bha Mafalisayo bhatenda bhelabhela. Nambu bhabhulwa bhaku bhakula 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 akabhayangati, “Bho, bhabhakokakiki kuukwati bhapalika le kukonga koni bambo ukwati abhi papamu nabhu? Ngabhela!Jesus replied, “Can you make the guests of the bridegroom fast while He is with them?

35Nambu lichobha analihikaje bambo ukwati anaabhohakika kwabhu, na panihapa nde pabhikonga kula chilebhe.”But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.”

36Bhela Yesu akabhapwaghi ulenganesu ghongo, “Nga mundu joakachu chilaka kuhuma mu ingobhu jahenu na kuloke mu ingobhu ja mwande. Ngati anatendiki bhenibhela, anaakachula ingobhu jahenu, na chilaka kuhuma mu ingobhu jahenu ngachilengani na ingobhu ja mwande.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.

37Kabheti nga mundu joaweza kujeghe divai jahenu mu mifuku jejilenganakiki na chingokolu cha mwande, ngati anaatehi bhenibhela, divai anajikachula mifuku ja chingokolu na kujitika, na mifuku ja chingokolu jitenda kukachuka.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.

38Nambu divai jahenu jijeghaleka mu mifuku ja ingokolu jahenu.Instead, new wine is poured into new wineskins.

39Nga mundu joakunywa divai jahenu na kutokule kunywa divai ja mwande, maghambu bhapwagha, ‘Jamwandi nde jinyahi.’ ”And no one after drinking old wine wants new, for he says, ‘The old is better.’”
