Luke 11 (WBI) · Opened

1jilyahumile ikighono kino, uYesu alyale ikufunya pamonga, um'bulanisivua ghwake jumo akam'bulagha kuuti,” Mutwa, utuvulanisie najusue kukufunya ndavule uYohani alyavulanisie avavulanisivua vake”One day in a place where Jesus had just finished praying, one of His disciples requested, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.”

2uYesu akamwamula pano mukufunya mutisaghe, “Mutwa ilitavua lyako lyimikwaghe, uvwimike vwako vwisaghe.So Jesus told them, “When you pray, say: ‘Father, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come.

3utupelaghe ifyakulia fiitu ifya jaatu.Give us each day our daily bread.

4utusaghilaghe inyivi siitu, ndavule najusue tukuvasaghila voni vano vatuhokile. nungalulongosiaghe munngelo”And forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into temptation.’”

5uYesu akavavula akati, “ghwe veeni mu lyumue umanyani juno ikumulutila pakilo pe ikum'bula, manyani nisuuma amakate ghatatu.Then Jesus said to them, “Suppose one of you goes to his friend at midnight and says, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,

6ulwakuva umanyani ghwango anyisile si sala sisisi kuhuma muvukyusi, najune nilinsila ikya kun'tengelela. nubecause a friend of mine has come to me on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him.’

7ghwa mun'kate akamwamulagha akati uleke kunyangajisia, na june tughonile pa vulili. naningasisimuke nikupeele uve amakate.And suppose the one inside answers, ‘Do not bother me. My door is already shut, and my children and I are in bed. I cannot get up to give you anything.’

8nikuvavula nambe naisisimuka kukumpela amakate ndavule umanyani ghwake, ulwakuva ijigha idindusia kisita soni isisimuka na kukumpela amakate minga ndavule vuno ilonda.I tell you, even though he will not get up to provide for him because of his friendship, yet because of the man’s persistence, he will get up and give him as much as he needs.

9najune nikuvavula musumaghe najumue mulapelua, mulondaaghe najumue mulafivona, muhodesyaghe najumue mulyadindulivua.So I tell you: Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.

10ulwakuva ummunhu ghweni juno isuuma alyupila, nu muunhu ghweni juno ilonda ikufyagha. nu munhu ghweni juno ihodesia umulyango ilidindulivua.For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.

11ghwe baba juliku mu lyumue juno umwanake angasume iswi ikumpela injoka?What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead?

12kange nave angasuume ilikang'a ikumpela iking'omelivuli?Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?

13nave umue mwe vahosi mukimanyile kuvapela avaanha vinu ifinu ifinofu, lino uNhaata ghwinu ughwa kukyanya nakyaikuvapela uMhepo uMwimike ku vano vikunsuuma?So if you who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!”

14pambele uYesu alyale idaga ilipepo, umuunhu ynya lipepo alyale kinunu. ilipepo ye lihumile umuunhu jula akatengula kujova.One day Jesus was driving out a demon that was mute. And when the demon was gone, the man who had been mute spoke. The crowds were amazed,

15neke avaanhu avange vakati, “uju ivusia amapepo mwa Belisebuli, ili vaha lya mapepo.but some of them said, “It is by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons, that He drives out demons.”

16avange vakamughelagha kuuti avasone ikivalilo kuhuma kukyanya.And others tested Him by demanding a sign from heaven.

17neke uYesu akakagula amasaghe ghave akavavulagha, uvutwa vwovwoni vuno muligalung'ana vuliva vuvili, nu muunhu unya nyumba jino jigalungiine jilighua.Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself will be laid waste, and a house divided against a house will fall.

18nave uSetan iiva agalung'iine uvutwa vwake vukwimila ndani? ulwakuva mwiti nihumia amapepo mwa Belisebuli.If Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom stand? After all, you say that I drive out demons by Beelzebul.

19neke une nihumia amapepo mwa Belisebuli, pe avajiinu vihumia amapepo kusila nyiki? mu uluo, avene vilikuvahigha umue.And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.

20nave kange nihumia amapepo ni kyove ikya Nguluve, lino uvutwa vwa Nguluve vuvisile.But if I drive out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.

21umuunhu umunya ngufu pano alinifilwilo ilolela inyumba jake, ifinu fyake viiva pavunofu.When a strong man, fully armed, guards his house, his possessions are secure.

22neke amwalukile umuunhu unya ngufu kyongo, umuunhu jula unya ngufu ilikunya ifilwilo fyake pe itola ifiinu fyake fyooni.But when someone stronger attacks and overpowers him, he takes away the armor in which the man trusted, and then he divides up his plunder.

23umwene juno na lubale lwango alikinsana nune, na juno naikong'ania palikimo nune ipalasania.He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.

24ilipepo ililamafu likahuma kwa muunhu, iluta kulonda uvukalo uvusila malenga apuo apume. neke napakavonike, ijova iti, nigomoka kuno nikahumile.When an unclean spirit comes out of a man, it passes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’

25angagomoke nene ivoona inyumba jifyaghililue pejikale vunofu.On its return, it finds the house swept clean and put in order.

26apuo peliluta kulonda amapepo likale lubale ghano mahosi kukila ilyene neke likuvaleta vise vikale pala apuo umuunhu ujuo ilemua kyongo kukila ulutasi.Then it goes and brings seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and dwell there. And the final plight of that man is worse than the first.”

27jilyahumile kuuti alyatile ijova amasio aghuo, un'dala jumonga akajova fiijo kukila vooni mulipugha lya vaanhu na kujova, “lifunyilue ilileme lino likuholile na mavele ghano ghwong'ile”As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd raised her voice and said, “Blessed is the womb that bore You, and blessed are the breasts that nursed You!”

28neke umwene akati, vafunyilue vala vano vipulika ilisio lya Nguluve na kukulivombela.But He replied, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.”

29unsiki ilipugha lya vaanhu ye likong'aana na kukwongelela uYesu akatengula kujova, “ikisina iki kye kisina kya vuhosi. vilonda ikivalilo, na kusila kivalilo kino vipelua kukila ikivalilo kila ikya Yoona.As the crowds were increasing, Jesus said, “This is a wicked generation. It demands a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.

30ulwakuva ndavule u Yoona alyale kivalilo ku vaanhu va Ninaawi enendikio nu mwana ghwa Muunhu fye iliva kivalilo kya kisina iki.For as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so the Son of Man will be a sign to this generation.

31uMalikia ughwa ku seba ilikwima ikighono kya vuhighi na vaanhu va kisina iki na kukuvahigha aveene, ulwakuva umwene alyahumile mu vusililo vwa iisi neke iise apulikisie uvukoola vwa solomoni, napa pwale juno m'baha kukila uSolomoni.The Queen of the South will rise at the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and now One greater than Solomon is here.

32avaanhu va kuNinawi vilikwima ku highua palikimo na vaanhu va kisina iki ikighono kya vuhighi vili kukihigha, ulwakuva aveene valyalatile ku madalikili gha Yoona, pe lola apa pwale juno m'baha kukila uYoona.The men of Nineveh will stand at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now One greater than Jonah is here.

33nakwale umuunu ghweni juno ikunga itaala na kuvika ku lubale lwa paasi lwa ng'iisi jino najivoneka nambe paasi pa ndilo, neke kukunga na kuvika pakyanya pa kinu neke kuuti umuunhu ghweni juno ikwingila alyaghaghe ulumuli.No one lights a lamp and puts it in a cellar or under a basket. Instead, he sets it on a stand, so those who enter can see the light.

34iliso lyako je taala ja m'bili. iliso lyako lingave linono pe umb'ili gwaki ghwoni ghuve mulumuli. neke iliso lyako lingave livivi pe naghubili ghwako ghwoni ghuva ghunya ng'iisi.Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are good, your whole body also is full of light. But when they are bad, your body is full of darkness.

35pe lino mujilolelelaghe nu lumuli luno luli n'kate jinu nalungaponekesiaghe ing'iisiBe careful, then, that the light within you is not darkness.

36pe lino, ndeve um'bili ghwako ghwoni ghuli mu lumuli kange nakwelule ulubale luno luli mung'iisi, pe um'bili ghwako ghuva ndavule itaala jino jiviika na kuhumia ulumuli kulyumue”.So if your whole body is full of light, with no part of it in darkness, you will be radiant, as though a lamp were shining on you.”

37ye ati amalile pijova, uFalisayi akamughongola akalie ikyakulia ku nyumba jaake, uYesu akingila mu n'kate na kuuva palikimo navope. naAs Jesus was speaking, a Pharisee invited Him to dine with him; so He went in and reclined at the table.

38vasalisayi vakadegha ndavule nakanawile taasi ye kikyale ikyakulia ikya pakivwilile.But the Pharisee was surprised to see that Jesus did not first wash before the meal.

39neke UMtwa akavavula, “umue vaFarisayi musuka kunji ifikombe ni bakuli, neke nkate jinu mumemile inoghelua nu vuhosi.Then the Lord said, “Now you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness.

40mwe vaanhu mwe vasila vukagusi, pe umwene juno alyavumbile kunji nalyavumbile mun'kate kange?You fools! Did not the One who made the outside make the inside as well?

41muvapelaghe avakotofu fino fili mun'kate, ni mbombo sooni siiva nofu kulyumue.But give as alms the things that are within you, and behold, everything will be clean for you.

42iga umue mwe vafalisayi, ulwakuva namuvikila umwoojo kukuvavombela avange inofu na kuku mughana uNguluve. lwe lunono fiijo kuvomba isa kyang'haani na kukumughana uNguluve, kisila kuvuhila kuvomba aghuo na ghange kange.Woe to you Pharisees! For you pay tithes of mint, rue, and every herb, but you disregard justice and the love of God. You should have practiced the latter without neglecting the former.

43iga umue Mafalisayi, ulwakuva munoghelua kukukala mu fitengo ifya kuvulongolo mu nyumba inyimike ja kufunyila na kuhungilua ni nyungililo isa vukoola kuno vighusikisia na kughulila.Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the chief seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.

44iga umue, ulwakuva muling'ana ni mbiipa sino sisila fivalilo fino avaanhu vighenda mimbiipa isio kisila kukagula.Woe to you! For you are like unmarked graves, which men walk over without even noticing.”

45umb'ulanisi jumonga ghwa ndaghilo sa Kiyahudi akamwamula na kukumb'ula, “m'bulanisi, kino ghujova kikutukalasia kange usue”.One of the experts in the law told Him, “Teacher, when You say these things, You insult us as well.”

46uYesu akati, “iga umue, vavulanisi va ndaghilo! kiki mukuvapela avaanhu amasigo amakome ghano naviwesia kupinda, neke umue namukola amasigho aghuo nambe ku kyove kimo mu fyove fiinu.“Woe to you as well, experts in the law!” He replied. “For you weigh men down with heavy burdens, but you yourselves will not lift a finger to lighten their load.

47iga umue, ulwakuva mujenga na kuvika ikumbukumbu mu mbiipa sa vavili' vano vakabudilue na vaghogholo vinu.Woe to you! For you build tombs for the prophets, but it was your fathers who killed them.

48neke umue mukufunyila na kukwiting'ana ni mbombo sino valyavombile avaghogholo vinu, ulwakuva kyang'ani valyavabudile avavili vano mujenga ikumbukumbu mumbiipa saave.So you are witnesses consenting to the deeds of your fathers: They killed the prophets, and you build their tombs.

49mu uluo kange, uvokoola vwa Nguluve vwiti, 'nikuvasung'ila avavili na vasung'ua vope vilikuvapumusia na kukuvabuda vamonga.Because of this, the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send them prophets and apostles; some of them they will kill and others they will persecute.’

50ikisina iki kilihombela idanda ja vavili vano vabudilue kuhuma muvutengululo vwa iisi,As a result, this generation will be charged with the blood of all the prophets that has been shed since the foundation of the world,

51kuhuma idanda ja Abeli kuhanga idanda ja Sakalia, juno alyabudilue pakate pa vwimike. Ena nikuvavula umue, ikisina iki kilhombela.from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who was killed between the altar and the sanctuary. Yes, I tell you, all of it will be charged to this generation.

52iga umue vavulanisi va ndaghilo sa vayahudi, ulwakuva mutolile ifungulo sa vukagusi; kange jumue namukwingila, ku vala vano vilonda kukwingila mukuvasigha.Woe to you experts in the law! For you have taken away the key to knowledge. You yourselves have not entered, and you have hindered those who were entering.”

53pe baho uYesu akavuka pala, avalembi na vafalisayi vakampinga na kujofesania nu mwene mu nyinga.As Jesus went on from there, the scribes and Pharisees began to oppose Him bitterly and to ply Him with questions about many things,

54vakaghela kukuntanga ku masio ghake.waiting to catch Him in something He might say.
