Luke 24 (YAO) · Opened

1Lyuŵa lyaandanda lya chijuma kundaŵi pe, achakongwe ŵala ŵapite ku lilembe ali ajigele mauta gakununjila gaŵalingenye.On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women came to the tomb, bringing the spices they had prepared.

2Paŵaiche ŵalisimene liganga lyekulungwa lila lili lyegalambule pambali kutyochela pakwinjilila mwilembe.They found the stone rolled away from the tomb,

3Nambo paŵajinjile nkati mo nganachisimana chiilu cha Ambuje Che Yesu.but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.

4Paŵaliji nkusimonga kwa ligongo lya yeleyo, kwanakamo ŵandu ŵaŵili uŵawete minjilo jakung'alima nnope ŵajimi pachiŵandi.While they were puzzling over this, suddenly two men in radiant apparel stood beside them.

5Ŵele achakongwe wo ŵakamwilwe ni lipamba, ŵakoteme. Nambo ŵandu ŵala ŵaasalile, “Kwa chichi nkunsosa jwanjumi pasikati pa ŵandu ŵawe?As the women bowed their faces to the ground in terror, the two men asked them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead?

6Ŵelewo nganapagwa apano, asyuchile! Nkumbuchile iŵatite pakunsalila paŵaliji chiŵela ku Galilaya kula,He is not here; He has risen! Remember how He told you while He was still in Galilee:

7achitiji, ‘Mwana jwa Mundu akusachilwa kuŵichikwa mmakono mwa ŵandu ŵa sambi ni kwaŵamba pa nsalaba nambo pa lyuŵa lyaatatu pakumala chiwa chao chachisyuka.’ ”‘The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.’”

8Pelepo achakongwe wo ŵagakumbuchile maloŵe ga Che Yesu.Then they remembered His words.

9Ŵausile kutyochela ku lilembe ni kwasalila achinduna kumi na moja pamo ni ŵakulijiganya ŵane ngani sya yele yose yo.And when they returned from the tomb, they reported all these things to the Eleven and to all the others.

10Ŵele uŵaapelechele achinduna syele ngani ŵaliji che Maliamu kutyochela musi wa ku Magidala ni che Joana ni che Maliamu achikulugwe che Yakobo pamo ni achakongwe ŵane uŵalongene nawo.It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them who told this to the apostles.

11Nambo achinduna ŵala nganagakulupililaga maloŵe ga ŵele achakongwe wo ŵaganisisye galiji gangali malumbo.But their words seemed like nonsense to them, and they did not believe the women.

12Nambo che Petulo ŵajimwiche, ŵalukunwile mpaka ku lilembe ni ŵakoteme ni kulingulila nkati, ŵajiweni sanda pe. Nipele ŵatyosile achisimongaga ni kuliusya yele iyakopochele.Peter, however, got up and ran to the tomb. And after bending down and seeing only the linen cloths, he went away, wondering to himself what had happened.

13Lyuŵa lilyolyo, ŵaŵili mwa ŵaŵankuyaga Che Yesu ŵajaulaga ku nsinda umo liina lyakwe Emau, uwaliji kwakutalikangana ni ku Yelusalemu mpela ulendo wa masaa gaŵili.That same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.

14Ŵalinji nkukunguluchila yankati yose iyakopochele.They were talking with each other about everything that had happened.

15Paŵakungulukaga ni kuusyana, Che Yesu asyene ŵaŵandichile ni kulongana nawo.And as they talked and deliberated, Jesus Himself came up and walked along with them.

16Ŵaweni kwa meeso gao nambo gasiŵikwe kuti ngasiŵamanyilila.But their eyes were kept from recognizing Him.

17Che Yesu ŵausisye, “Ana ngani chi asi sinkukunguluchila nli nkwenda?” Nombewo ŵajimi chimyalalile ni ku meeso kwao kwalilasiche.He asked them, “What are you discussing so intently as you walk along?” They stood still, with sadness on their faces.

18Jumo jwao, liina lyakwe che Kileopa, ŵanjanjile, “Ana mmwemwe pe jwannendo mu Yelusalemu ni ngankuimanyilila indu yaikopochele kweleko agano moŵa ga?”One of them, named Cleopas, asked Him, “Are You the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in recent days?”

19Che Yesu ŵausisye, “Ana ngani chi?” Ŵanyawo ŵanjanjile, “Ngani jankati Che Yesu jwa ku Nasaleti. Jwelejo ŵawoneche ni Akunnungu ni ŵandu wose kuti ŵaliji jwakulondola jwa Akunnungu jwali ni ukombole mu indu iŵapanganyaga ni kuŵecheta.“What things?” He asked. “The events involving Jesus of Nazareth,” they answered. “This man was a prophet, powerful in speech and action before God and all the people.

20Achakulu ŵambopesi ni ilongola ŵetu ŵantyosisye melepe alamulikwe chiwa, nombewo ŵaŵambile pa nsalaba.Our chief priests and rulers delivered Him up to the sentence of death, and they crucified Him.

21Noweji twaliji ni chilolelo chakuti ŵelewo ni ŵaŵatumikwe kwawombola ŵandu ŵa ku Isilaeli. Nambo lelo jino lili lyuŵa lyaatatu chitandilile kutendekwa yeleyo.But we were hoping He was the One who would redeem Israel. And besides all this, it is the third day since these things took place.

22Sooni achakongwe ŵampepe mumpingo wetu ŵatutojimye. Ŵajawile ku lilembe kundaŵi pe,Furthermore, some of our women astounded us. They were at the tomb early this morning,

23nambo nganachisimana chiilu chi Che Yesu. Ŵausile ni kutusalila kuti ŵakopochelwe ni achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ŵaŵaasalile kuti ŵelewo ali ŵajumi.but they did not find His body. They came and told us they had seen a vision of angels, who said that Jesus was alive.

24Ŵandu ŵampepe uŵaliji pamo ni uwe ŵajawile ku lilembe kukulola yele yaŵecheteje achakongwe wo, nambo Che Yesu nganiŵawona.”Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had described. But Him they did not see.”

25Nipele, Che Yesu ŵaasalile, “Mwanya nli ŵakuloŵela kwanti yele ni mitima jenu jili jakutopela nkukulupilila maloŵe gose gaŵaŵechete ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu.Then Jesus said to them, “O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!

26Ana nganiyaŵajila Kilisito Nkulupusyo akole masauko ga ni kwanti yeleyo ajinjile mu ukulu wao?”Was it not necessary for the Christ to suffer these things and then to enter His glory?”

27Nipele, ŵaasagamulile gose gagaliji nkwagamba Mmalembelo ga Akunnungu kutandilila mmalembo ga che Musa mpaka mmalembo ga ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu wose.And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, He explained to them what was written in all the Scriptures about Himself.

28Paŵaŵandichile aula nsinda uŵajaulaga, Che Yesu ŵatesile mpela akwaula mmbujo ni ulendo.As they approached the village where they were headed, He seemed to be going farther.

29Nambo ŵanyawo ŵachondelele kwa kuchalila achitiji, “Ntame nowe pakuŵa sambano kuswele ni chilo chikwinjila.” Nipele ŵajinjile nkati ni kutama nawo.But they pleaded with Him, “Stay with us, for it is nearly evening and the day is almost over.” So He went in to stay with them.

30Paŵatemi kulya chakulya pamo nawo ŵaujigele nkate ni kwatogolela Akunnungu ni ŵaugaŵenye ni kwapa.While He was reclining at the table with them, He took bread, spoke a blessing and broke it, and gave it to them.

31Kwanakamo meeso gao gaunukwiche ni ŵaamanyilile, nambo Che Yesu ŵatyosile pasikati jao.Then their eyes were opened and they recognized Jesus—and He disappeared from their sight.

32Nipele ŵaŵechetesyene, “Ana ngaŵa mitima jetu jasisimwiche paŵaŵechetaga nowe mwitala mula ni kutusagamukulila Malembelo ga Akunnungu.”They asked each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us as He spoke with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?”

33Papopo ŵajimi ni kuujila ku Yelusalemu, ŵaasimene achinduna kumi na moja ŵala pamo ni ŵandu ŵane ali asongangene pamoAnd they got up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven and those with them, gathered together

34achitiji, “Isyene Ambuje asyuchile ni ŵakopochele che Simoni.”and saying, “The Lord has indeed risen and has appeared to Simon!”

35Ni uŵakuyaga Che Yesu ŵaŵili ŵala ŵamanyisye yose iyakopochele mwitala mula ni iŵatite pakwamanyilila Che Yesu paŵagaŵenye nkate.Then the two told what had happened on the road, and how they had recognized Jesus in the breaking of the bread.

36Paŵaliji nkuŵecheta gelego, Che Yesu nsyene ŵajimi pasikati pao ni ŵaasalile, “Chitendewele chiŵe kukwenu.”While they were describing these events, Jesus Himself stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.”

37Ŵatojime ni kogopa kwannope achiganisyaga kuti akuliwona lisoka.But they were startled and frightened, thinking they had seen a spirit.

38Nambo ŵelewo ŵaasalile, “Uli nkutenguka chichi ni kuŵa ni lipamba mmitima jenu?“Why are you troubled,” Jesus asked, “and why do doubts arise in your hearts?

39Nnolanje makono gangu ni makongolo gangu, mmanyililanje kuti ndili une. Mumbapasye mulole pakuŵa lisoka nganilikola chiilu namuno maupa mpela inkuti kunola une.”Look at My hands and My feet. It is I Myself. Touch Me and see—for a spirit does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.”

40Paŵamasile kuŵecheta gelego ŵalosisye makono ni makongolo gao.And when He had said this, He showed them His hands and feet.

41Paŵaliji akanaŵe kulupilila kwa ligongo lya kusengwa ni kusimonga Che Yesu ŵausisye, “Nkwete chakulya chachili chose pelepa?”While they were still in disbelief because of their joy and amazement, He asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?”

42Ŵapele chipande cha somba jejoche.So they gave Him a piece of broiled fish,

43Ŵachijigele ni kulya paujo pao.and He took it and ate it in front of them.

44Nipele ŵaasalile, “Gelega ni malumbo ga maloŵe ganansalile panaliji pamo ni ŵanyamwe kuti, gaŵajilwe gamalichikwe gose gagalembekwe gagang'ambaga une mu Malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa ni itabu ya ŵakulondola ŵa Akunnungu ni mu Sabuli.”Jesus said to them, “These are the words I spoke to you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about Me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms.”

45Nipele ŵaaunukwile mu lunda lwao kuti akolanje kugamanyilila Malembelo ga Akunnungu,Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures.

46ŵaasalile, “Ilembechekwe Mmalembelo ga Akunnungu kuti Kilisito Nkulupusyo chalagaswe ni chasyuche lyuŵa lyaatatu pakumala chiwa chao,And He told them, “This is what is written: The Christ will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day,

47ni kuti ŵandu ŵa ilambo yose chitandile ku Yelusalemu alalichilwe kwa liina lyangu kuti alechanje sambi, nombe Akunnungu chiŵalechelesye.and in His name repentance and forgiveness of sins will be proclaimed to all nations, beginning in Jerusalem.

48Ŵanyamwe ni uchimwasalile ŵandu umboni u.You are witnesses of these things.

49None nansyene chinampelechele chilanga cha Atati ŵangu pachanya penu, nambo nnindilile kaje ku Yelusalemu kula mpaka pachimpegwe machili kutyochela kwinani.”And behold, I am sending the promise of My Father upon you. But remain in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.”

50Nipele Che Yesu ŵalongwesye kwaula mpaka ku nsinda wa Besania ni ŵanyakwile makono gakwe ni kwapa upile.When Jesus had led them out as far as Bethany, He lifted up His hands and blessed them.

51Paŵaliji nkwapa upile po ŵalisapwile ni ŵajigalikwe kwaula kwinani.While He was blessing them, He left them and was carried up into heaven.

52Ŵanyawo ŵapopelele, nombewo ŵausile ku Yelusalemu achichinaga,And they worshiped Him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy,

53ŵalonjele pa Nyuumba ja Akunnungu moŵa gose achalapaga Akunnungu.praising God continually in the temple.
