Luke 4 (SHR) · Opened

1Yezu ayunjula Mûka Mutagatîfu, arhenga e Yordani, ahêkwa na Mûka omu irungu,Then Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,

2ajiramwo nsiku makumi anni ashumikwa na shetani. Ezo nsiku arhakozagya kalyo ekanwa, n’erhi ziyunjula, ashalika.where for forty days He was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and when they had ended, He was hungry.

3Shetani anacimubwîra, erhi: «Akabà oli Mwene-Nyamuzinda, bwîra eri ibuye lihinduke mugati».The devil said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread.”

4Naye Yezu amushuza, erhi: «Kuyandisirwe, mpu: Arhali mugati gône gujira omuntu, ci ajirwa na ngasi luderho lurhenga ekanwa ka Nyamuzinda».But Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone.’”

5Shetani anacimurheremana, amuyêreka caligumiza amâmi goshi g’en’igulu,Then the devil led Him up to a high place and showed Him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world.

6Shetani, erhi: «Nakuhà obwo buhashe bwoshi n’irenge ly’ago mârni goshi, bulya nabihîrwe, nâni nambihe ngasi yêshi nnonzize.“I will give You authority over all these kingdoms and all their glory,” he said. “For it has been relinquished to me, and I can give it to anyone I wish.

7Okamfukamira, ntà kundi, byoshi byanabà byâwe».So if You worship me, it will all be Yours.”

8Yezu anacimushuza, erhi: «Kuyandisirwe, mpu: Wakaz’iharâmya Nyakasane Nyamuzinda wâwe, onakaz’imukolera yênene».But Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve Him only.’”

9Okubundi anacimuhêka e Yeruzalemu, amuyimanza oku kanshonsho k’aka-Nyamuzinda, amubwîra, erhi: «Akabà oli Mwene-Nyamuzinda, hamira ahanshi,Then the devil led Him to Jerusalem and set Him on the pinnacle of the temple. “If You are the Son of God,” he said, “throw Yourself down from here.

10bulya kuyandisirwe, mpu: Akurhegekera bamalahika bâge bakulange,For it is written: ‘He will command His angels concerning You to guard You carefully,

11na mpu: Bakuhêke omu maboko gâbo, olek’isârhala oku ibuye».and they will lift You up in their hands, so that You will not strike Your foot against a stone.’”

12Yezu anacimushuza, erhi: «Kuyandisirwe, mpu: “Irhondo orhashumikaga Nyakasane Nyamuzinda wâwe”».But Jesus answered, “It also says, ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’”

13Erhi ayûsa ngasi nshumi, shetani arhang’imuleka.When the devil had finished every temptation, he left Him until an opportune time.

14N’obuzibu bwa Mûka Mutabatifu, Yezu ashubira e Galileya, n’irenge lyâge lyayunjula omu cihugo coshi.Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and the news about Him spread throughout the surrounding region.

15Akaz’iyigîriza omu masinagogi gâbo, n’abantu boshi bamukuza.He taught in their synagogues and was glorified by everyone.

16Anacijà e Nazareti, co cishagala alereragwamwo; ajà omu sinagogi omu lusiku lwa-Sabato, nka oku anayôrheraga, ayimanga mpu asome.Then Jesus came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. As was His custom, He entered the synagogue on the Sabbath. And when He stood up to read,

17Bamushumbiriza ecitabu c’omulêbi Izaya. Erhi abungûla ecitabu, ayirukira ahayandisirwe ntyâla:the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him. Unrolling it, He found the place where it was written:

18Omûka gwa Nyakasane kuli nie, bulya anshîzire amavurha, antuma mpu ngend’iyigîriza abakenyi emyanzi y’akalembe, mbale omwanzi gw’obuyôkozi, emw’abâli omu mpamikwa, n’emwa emihûrha ogw’okushub’ikabona, ngalulire abarhindibuzibwe omurhûla,“The Spirit of the Lord is on Me, because He has anointed Me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent Me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to release the oppressed,

19nnandalike omwâka gw’obwonjo bwa Nyakasane.to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”

20Anacibunga ecitabu, acishubiza omurhumisi, abwârhala. Abâli omu sinagogi boshi bamuyêrekeza amasù.Then He rolled up the scroll, returned it to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fixed on Him,

21Okubundi anacirhondêra ababwîra, erhi: «Ene, olu lwandiko lwamayunjula omu marhwiri ginyu».and He began by saying, “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”

22Boshi bali bamubêrîre càli-ho, banacirhangâla n’enderho nyinjà zarhengaga omu kanwa kâge, mpu: «K’arhali mwene-Yozefu oyu?»All spoke well of Him and marveled at the gracious words that came from His lips. “Isn’t this the son of Joseph?” they asked.

23Anacibabwîra, erhi: «Ntahabiri oku mwambwîra ogu mugani, mpu: “We mufumu, ocîbuke wêne!” “Birya byoshi barhubwîraga mpu byabîre e Kafarnaumu, obijirage n’eno mwinyu”».Jesus said to them, “Surely you will quote this proverb to Me: ‘Physician, heal yourself! Do here in Your hometown what we have heard that You did in Capernaum.’”

24Ashub’ibabwîra, erhi: «Okuli, mmubwîre, ntà mulêbi oyankiriwa bwinjà omu cihugo câbo.Then He added, “Truly I tell you, no prophet is accepted in his hometown.

25Nêci, mmubwîzire oku binali: hàli bakana banji omu Israheli amango g’Eliya, erhi enkuba ehangama myâka isharhu na myêzi ndarhu n’erhi ecizombo cizûka omu cihugo coshi,But I tell you truthfully that there were many widows in Israel in the time of Elijah, when the sky was shut for three and a half years and great famine swept over all the land.

26ntà muguma mulibo Eliya arhumirwe emwâge, ci emwa omukazi mukana w’e Sarepta, omu cihugo c’e Sidoni.Yet Elijah was not sent to any of them, but to the widow of Zarephath in Sidon.

27Na bashomyo banji bâli omu Israheli amango g’omulêbi Elizeyo; ntâye ciru n’omuguma wafumizwe muli bo, ci Nahamani yêne w’e Sîriya».And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet. Yet not one of them was cleansed—only Naaman the Syrian.”

28Erhi bayumva ntyo, abàli omu sinagogi boshi bakunira;On hearing this, all the people in the synagogue were enraged.

29banaciyimuka, bamuhulusa omu lugo, bamuhêka oku cigonzi c’entondo ecishagala câbo càli ciyûbasirwekwo mpu bamulohe oku ncangu.They got up, drove Him out of the town, and led Him to the brow of the hill on which the town was built, in order to throw Him over the cliff.

30Ci larha wâni abagera ekarhî, acîgendera.But Jesus passed through the crowd and went on His way.

31Anaciyandagalira e Kafarnaumu, cishagala c’e Galileya; akabayigîriza olwa-Sabato.Then He went down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee, and on the Sabbath He began to teach the people.

32Basômerwa n’enyigîrizo zâge, bulya akâg’iderha nka ogwêrhe obuhashe.They were astonished at His teaching, because His message had authority.

33Mw’eyo sinagogi mwâli omuntu ogwêrhwe n’omuzimu mubî. Anaciyakûza n’izù linene, erhi:In the synagogue there was a man possessed by the spirit of an unclean demon. He cried out in a loud voice,

34«Cici rhufânwa, ewani Yezu w’e Nazareti? Kali wayishire mpu orhuheze? Nkumanyire we ndi: Mutagatîfu wa Nnâmahanga».“Ha! What do You want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are—the Holy One of God!”

35Yezu anacimukankamira, erhi: «Hulika, onarhengemw’oyu muntu». Olya shetani anacimurhimba ahanshi embere z’abantu boshi, amurhengamwo buzira kumubabaza.But Jesus rebuked the demon. “Be silent!” He said. “Come out of him!” At this, the demon threw the man down before them all and came out without harming him.

36Boshi bageramwo omusisi, bakâbwîrana bône na nnene, mpu: «Ema! Kwo kurhi oku? Ci adwîrhe arhegeka abashetani n’obuzibu n’obuhashe, banadwîrhe bahuluka!»All the people were overcome with amazement and asked one another, “What is this message? With authority and power He commands the unclean spirits, and they come out!”

37Irenge lyâge lyanacilumira hoshi hoshi omu cihugo.And the news about Jesus spread throughout the surrounding region.

38Erhi ahuluka omu sinagogi, ajà aha mwa Simoni. Nnazâla wa Simoni erhi ashushîrwe bwenêne; banacimusengerera.After Jesus had left the synagogue, He went to the home of Simon, whose mother-in-law was suffering from a high fever. So they appealed to Jesus on her behalf,

39Amujaho, arhegeka lirya ishushira, lyamulîka. Anacizûka ho na halya, arhondêra abakolera.and He stood over her and rebuked the fever, and it left her. And she got up at once and began to serve them.

40Erhi izûba lizika, ngasi boshi bali bagwêrhe abalwala ba ngasi buzamba, bamulerherabo. Naye akahirakwo ngasi muguma okuboko, abafumya.At sunset, all who were ill with various diseases were brought to Jesus, and laying His hands on each one, He healed them.

41Abàshetani bakarhengamwo banji, bakâyâma banaderha, mpu: «We Mwene-Nyamuzinda!» Ci akabakankamira n’okubahanza okuderha, bulya bâli bamanyire oku ye Kristu.Demons also came out of many people, shouting, “You are the Son of God!” But He rebuked the demons and would not allow them to speak, because they knew He was the Christ.

42Erhi buca, alîkûla, acîjira aharhali bantu. Orhutu rhw’abantu rhwakamulonza, n’erhi rhumuhikaho, rhwamuhagalika mpu arharhulekaga.At daybreak, Jesus went out to a solitary place, and the crowds were looking for Him. They came to Him and tried to keep Him from leaving.

43Naye anacibashuza, erhi: «Kukwânîne nyigîrize emyanzi minjà y’Obwâmi bwa Nyamuzinda omu bindi bishagala, bulya kwo kwarhumaga ntumwa».But Jesus told them, “I must preach the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns as well, because that is why I was sent.”

44Akayigîriza omu masinagogi g’e Yûda.And He continued to preach in the synagogues of Judea.
