Mark 5 (SBY) · Opened

1Yesu ne beshikwiya bakendi balatampukila kutala kwa lwenje lwa Galileya mu cishi ca Gelasa.On the other side of the sea, they arrived in the region of the Gerasenes.

2Mpwalaseluka mubwato, walakumanya muntu wekatwa ne mishimu yaipa kafumina ku namaumbwe.As soon as Jesus got out of the boat, He was met by a man with an unclean spirit, who was coming from the tombs.

3Walikwikala ku namaumbwe, paliya muntu naba umo walakonsha kumusunga ncetani.This man had been living in the tombs and could no longer be restrained, even with chains.

4Pakwinga walasungwapo ncetani kumakasa ne nshimbi kumyendo mankanda mangi, nsombi nendi walikusutaula ne kutyokola nshimbi. Paliya walikucikonsha kumukoma.Though he was often bound with chains and shackles, he had broken the chains and shattered the shackles. Now there was no one with the strength to subdue him.

5Cindi conse munshi ne mashiku, walikolobesha munamaumbwe ne mumalundu kaliyasaula ne mabwe.Night and day in the tombs and in the mountains he kept crying out and cutting himself with stones.

6Nomba mpwalamubona Yesu capataliko, walamufwambila ne kumusuntamina,When the man saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and fell on his knees before Him.

7Neco walolobesha ne kwamba maswi eshikunyumfwika capatali walambeti, “Nkute nenu cani Yesu Mwana Lesa wa Kwilu ku mayoba? Ndamusengenga mulina lya Lesa kwambeti kamutampesha.”And he shouted in a loud voice, “What do You want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You before God not to torture me!”

8Walambeco pakwinga Yesu walawambila mushimuwo kwambeti, “Pula mu muntuyu mushimu waipa obe.”For Jesus had already declared, “Come out of this man, you unclean spirit!”

9Nomba Yesu walamwipusha muntuyu kwambeti, “Njobe bani lina?” Nendi walakumbuleti, “Lina lyakame njame likoto, pakwinga tulimo bangi.”“What is your name?” Jesus asked. “My name is Legion,” he replied, “for we are many.”

10Mishimu yaipa, yalapapata mankanda mangi kwambeti nkataituma kutali ne cibela ico.And he begged Jesus repeatedly not to send them out of that region.

11Lino mungusa wa nkumba walikaulya pamulundu.There on the nearby hillside a large herd of pigs was feeding.

12Neco, mishimu iyo yalamupapatileti, “kamututumani ku nkumba shisa, tuye twingilemo.”So the demons begged Jesus, “Send us to the pigs, so that we may enter them.”

13Yesu walesuminisha. Popelapo mishimu yaipa yalapulamo nekuya kwingila mu nkumba. Mungusa wonse walamfwambila cakumukolo lubilo ne kuya kuliwala mulwenje, ne kufwilamo shonse, pamo myanda makumi abili.He gave them permission, and the unclean spirits came out and went into the pigs, and the herd of about two thousand rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned in the water.

14Balikushembela balafwambila ku minshi ne ku mabala, kabaya kwamba, neco bantu bangi balesa kubona bintu byalenshika.Those tending the pigs ran off and reported this in the town and countryside, and the people went out to see what had happened.

15Mpobalashika kuli Yesu, balabona muntu walikuba wekatwa ne mishimu yaipa kaliwekala, kaliwafwala, kaliwekalikana nkombe, ee muntu walikukute likoto lya mishimu yaipa, neco balaba ne buyowa.When they came to Jesus, they saw the man who had been possessed by the legion of demons sitting there, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.

16Bantu abo balabonako ibyo byalenshika balabambila mocalabela ku muntu usa walikuba wekatwa mishimu yaipa, ne byalenshika ku nkumba.Those who had seen it described what had happened to the demon-possessed man and also to the pigs.

17Neco bantu abo balatatika kumusenga Yesu kwambeti afume mucishi cabo.And the people began to beg Jesus to leave their region.

18Lino mpwali kutanta mubwato, muntu usa walikuba wekatwa mishimu yaipa walatatika kupapatila kwambeti benga pamo.As He was getting into the boat, the man who had been possessed by the demons begged to go with Him.

19Nsombi nkalamusuminisha sobwe, walamwambileti, “Koya ku munshi kubanse bobe wenga ubambile byonse Lesa mbyalakwinshili ne nkumbo nshalakuleshe.”But Jesus would not allow him. “Go home to your own people,” He said, “and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and what mercy He has shown you.”

20Neco walanyamuka ne kuya ku Minshi likumi kuya kwambila bantu bintu byonse mbyalamwinshila Yesu, bantu bonse balakankamana.So the man went away and began to proclaim throughout the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him. And everyone was amazed.

21Pacindi Yesu mpwalatampukila kutala nakumbi mu bwato, likoto lya bantu bangi lyalabungana nkwalikuba, nsombi nendi walikuba mumbali mwa lwenje.When Jesus had again crossed by boat to the other side, a large crowd gathered around Him beside the sea.

22Popelapo umo wabatangunishi ba ng'anda ya kupaililamo lina lyakendi Yailo, walashika, mpwalamubona walamusuntamina,A synagogue leader named Jairus arrived, and seeing Jesus, he fell at His feet

23ne kumupapatila mankanda angi, kwambeti, “Mwaname mutukashi lakolwa camakasa abili ndapapata katuyani mwenga mubike makasa enu palyendiye kwambeti bulwashi bumumbuluke abe cena.”and pleaded with Him urgently, “My little daughter is near death. Please come and place Your hands on her, so that she will be healed and live.”

24Neco balanyamuka ne kuya pamo. Nomba likoto lya bantu lyalikumukonkela ne kumushankanya.So Jesus went with him, and a large crowd followed and pressed around Him.

25Lino palikuba mutukashi walikukolwa bulwashi bwa mukunko kwa byaka likumi ne bibili.And a woman was there who had suffered from bleeding for twelve years.

26Walapenga kwine, nikukabeti walaya ku bang'anga bangi. ne kononga mali akendi onse nsombi bulwashi bwa mukunko empo bwalikuya pantangu.She had borne much agony under the care of many physicians and had spent all she had, but to no avail. Instead, her condition had only grown worse.

27Mutukashi uyu mpwalanyumfwa bintu bingi mbyalikwinsa Yesu. Walakengila mulikoto lya bantu ne kwisa kwikata mwinjila wakunsa, cakunyuma kwa Yesu.When the woman heard about Jesus, she came up through the crowd behind Him and touched His cloak.

28Pakwinga munkombe mwakendi wali kuyeyeti, “ndekatako mwinjila wakendi wakunsa ninsengulwe.”For she kept saying, “If only I touch His garments, I will be healed.”

29Pa cindi copeleco, bulwashi bwa mukunko bwalapwa, walanyumfwa mubili wakendi kwambeti lashilikwa kubulwashi bwamupenshanga.Immediately her bleeding stopped, and she sensed in her body that she was healed of her affliction.

30Yesu neye pacindi copeleco, walanyumfwa kwambeti ngofu nashimbi shakusengula shilapulumo, walacebuka mu likoto lya bantu ne kwipusheti, “Inga niyani lekatako ku mwinjila wakame?”At once Jesus was aware that power had gone out from Him. Turning to the crowd, He asked, “Who touched My garments?”

31Nomba beshikwiya bakendi balakumbuleti, “Bona bantu balakushankanyanga nibangi, nomba ulepushilingacani eti lakwikata niyani?”His disciples answered, “You can see the crowd pressing in on You, and yet You ask, ‘Who touched Me?’”

32Nomba Yesu walikacebauka uku ne uku kwambeti abone lenshico.But He kept looking around to see who had done this.

33Nomba mutukashi uyo walaba ne buyowa ne kutatika kututuma pa kwinshiba ncilamwinshinkili. Neco walesa pepi ne kusuntama pamenso pakendi ne kumwambila cancine ncine.Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell down before Him trembling in fear, and she told Him the whole truth.

34Yesu walamwambila mutukashi uyo, “Omwana mutukashi obe lushomo lwakobe lulapesheti ube cena, Koya mu lumuno. Bulwashi bwakobe bwakumpenshanga bulapwilili.”“Daughter,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be free of your affliction.”

35Kacamba palashika batuloba balafumina kuli Yailo mutangunishi wa ng'anda ya kupaililamo ne kumwambileti, “Mwanenu mutukashi usa lafu! Inga mucimumpenshela cani Shikwiyisha?”While He was still speaking, messengers from the house of Jairus arrived and said, “Your daughter is dead; why bother the Teacher anymore?”

36Nomba Yesu mpwalanyumfwa ibyo byalikwambwa, walamwambila Yailo kwambeti, “Kotatina, kobowa lushomo.”But Jesus overheard their conversation and said to Jairus, “Do not be afraid; just believe.”

37Yesu nkalasuminisha kuya ne muntu uliyense kupatulakowa Petulo ne Jemusi ne Yohane mukwabo.And He did not allow anyone to accompany Him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James.

38Neco balakashika ku ng'anda ya mutangunishi wa ng'anda yakupaililamo, walabona kupilingana kwa bantu balikulila ne kulyuma pa nkombe.When they arrived at the house of the synagogue leader, Jesus saw the commotion and the people weeping and wailing loudly.

39Nomba mpwalengila mukati walambeti, “Inga mulalilingeconi cisa? Mwana uyu uliya kufwa sobwe, nsombi wonatulo.”He went inside and asked, “Why all this commotion and weeping? The child is not dead, but asleep.”

40Mpwalamba maswi awa, balatatika kumuseka. Nomba mpwalabapulishamo bonse, walamanta baishi ne banyina bamwana pamo ne beshikwiya batatu mbwalikuba nabo, ne kwingila uko kwalikuba mwana uyo.And they laughed at Him. After He had put them all outside, He took the child’s father and mother and His own companions, and went in to see the child.

41Neco walekata cikasa ca mwana mutukashi uyo ne kwambeti, “Talita koumi!” Maswi aya alapandululungeti, “Omulindu obe, ndambanga ne njobe punduka!”Taking her by the hand, Jesus said, “Talitha koum!” which means, “Little girl, I say to you, get up!”

42Pa cindi copeleco mwana uyu walapunduka ne kutatika kwenda, walikuba wa byaka likumi ne bibili. Nomba bantu balakankamana kwine.Immediately the girl got up and began to walk around (she was twelve years old). And at once they were utterly astounded.

43Nomba Yesu walabakonkomesha makanda angi kwambeti kabatambilako uliyense sha bintu ibi, walabambileti “mupeni cakulya.”Then Jesus gave strict orders that no one should know about this, and He told them to give her something to eat.
