Luke 5 (ZAJP) · Opened

1Zua dimwe Yesu kakala yemile hamgwazo wa Idilamba da Genesaleti. Wanhu wakala wokiibabanika wokwenhuka behi na heyo kutegeleza mbuli za Mulungu.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,

2Kazona ngalawa mbili mulugigo lwa idilamba, zikigwe haja na waloa somba, wakalile wosuluza nhando zao.He saw two boats at the edge of the lake. The fishermen had left them and were washing their nets.

3Yesu kengila mngalawa imwe ikalile ya Simoni, kamulongela Simoni yaikwenhuse hamwande, hatalitali na ulugigo lwa idilamba. Yesu kakala mngalawa yowafundiza wanhu bwando.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.

4Viyeshile kulonga kamulongela Simoni, “Kwenhusa ingalawa hamwande hana ididindi da idilamba, na gweye na wayago tandeni nhando zenu muloe somba.”When Jesus had finished speaking, He said to Simon, “Put out into deep water and let down your nets for a catch.”

5Simoni kamulongela, “Mndewa, tugonelela tuloa somba hatupatile kinhu, ila kwavija gweye kulonga, nozitanda nhando.”“Master,” Simon replied, “we have worked hard all night without catching anything. But because You say so, I will let down the nets.”

6Viwazitandile izinhando, wonza somba bwando, na nhando zao zisonga kukanhika.When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to tear.

7Wawakema wayao wakalile mngalawa iyagwe weze kuwataza. Weza wamemeza somba ngalawa zose mbili, avo ngalawa zikala mmabehi kudidimila mmazi.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 Petulo viyagonile gaja, kafugama mavindi haulongozi wa Yesu, yolonga, “Mndewa, sambiung'hwenhukile kwavija nie nna vilozo!”When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees. “Go away from me, Lord,” he said, “for I am a sinful man.”

9Simoni na wayage wose wakanganya avija viwonzile somba bwando kamba vija.For he and his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken,

10Yakobo na Yohana wanage Zebedayo, wakalile waloa somba wayage Simoni, vivija wakanganya. Yesu kamulongela Simoni, “Sambiudumbe, kusongela lelo kowa muloa wanhu.”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.”

11Wazikwekwesa zingalawa wazika mumgwazo wa idilamba, waleka gose wamkweleleza Yesu.And when they had brought their boats ashore, they left everything and followed Him.

12Yesu viyakalile mdiwambo dimwe da hiko, kaiting'hana na mbigalo imwe yakalile na dikulu lukuli lugima. Viyamonile Yesu, kafugama mavindi, kamulongela mkuiyalala, “Mndewa, uhalonda, kodaha kunihonya.”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 kagolosa mkono wake kamkwasa yolonga, “Nolonda, hona!” Kipigiti kikija kahona utamu wa dikulu.Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him.

14Abaho, Yesu kamulagiza yolonga, “Sambiumulongele munhu yoyose, ila genda dimwe kwa dimwe ha mkulu wa nhambiko yakulole goya, abaho, ukalave nhosa kamba Musa vayalagize, giladi iwe usindila mwa wanhu wose kamba kuhona.”“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.”

15Ila mbuli za Yesu zibanza kwenela muisi yose, wanhu bwando weza kumtegeleza na kuhonyigwa vitamu vao.But the news about Jesus spread all the more, and great crowds came to hear Him and to be healed of their sicknesses.

16Ila Yesu mianza bwando kakala yonyelenhuka yochola hanhu halibule wanhu kutambika.Yet He frequently withdrew to the wilderness to pray.

17Zua dimwe Yesu kakala yofundiza. Mafalisayo na wafundiza Malagizo ga Musa, walawile m'viwambo vose va Galilaya, Yudea na kulawa Yelusalemu, wakala baho. Mhiko za Mndewa zikala na heyo, avo kawahonya watamu.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.

18Baho weza wanhu wampapile munhu yaholole mulusazi, wageza kumwingiza mng'anda wamwike haulongozi wa Yesu.Just then some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They tried to bring him inside to set him before Jesus,

19Avija wanhu viwakalile wamemile hawadahile kumwingiza mng'anda. Avo wampapa, wamgala uchana mkiswili, wafumula usoti, wamuhumulusa hamoja na lusazi lwake, na kumwika hagatigati ya ididale da wanhu haulongozi wa 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 viyonile avija viwakalile na nhamanila ng'hulu, kamulongela ija imunhu, “Mbwiga, vilozo vako vigeligwa kumgongo.”When Jesus saw their faith, He said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”

21Wafundiza Malagizo ga Musa na Mafalisayo wasonga kukiiuza, “Iyo yalihi yofukula? Mulungu yeiyeka yodaha kugela kumgongo vilozo va wanhu!”But the scribes and Pharisees began thinking to themselves, “Who is this man who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

22Ila Yesu kazitanga ngelegeza zao, kawauza, “Habali mgelegeza mbuli kamba azo?Knowing what they were thinking, Jesus replied, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?

23Dilihi dibuhile ng'hani, kulonga, ‘Vilozo vako vigeligwa kumgongo,’ ama kulonga, ‘Ima wima utembele’?Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’?

24Nolonda m'vitange kamba, nie, Mwana wa Munhu, nna udaho wa kuvigela kumgongo vilozo va wanhu muisi.” Abaho kamulongela ija imunhu yaholole, “Ima wima, papa lusazi lwako, uchole ukae yako.”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.”

25Baho ija imunhu kema wima hameso gao wose, kasola lusazi lwake lwayakalile yaluwasile, kachola ukae yake kuno yomuyenzi Mulungu.And immediately the man stood up before them, took what he had been lying on, and went home glorifying God.

26Wanhu wose wakanganya, kuno wona bwembwe, wamuyenzi Mulungu, wolonga, “Lelo tona mbuli za mkanganyo!”Everyone was taken with amazement and glorified God. They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.”

27Viyeshile kutenda higo, Yesu kalawa hanze, kamona muwila kodi imwe yokemigwa Lawi, yakalile muna ing'anda yake ya kulihila kodi. Yesu kamulongela, “Ng'holeleza.”After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him,

28Na heyo kenuka, kaleka gose, kamkoleleza.and Levi got up, left everything, and followed Him.

29Abaho, Lawi kamtendela lusona lukulu ng'hani Yesu mng'anda yake, na dale kulu da wawila kodi na wanhu wayagwe wakala woja na heyo.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.

30Mafalisayo na wafundiza Malagizo ga Musa wakalile mdidale jao wawatwanganikila wanahina wa Yesu, wouza, “Habali moja na kung'wa na wawila kodi na watenda vilozo wayagwe?”But the Pharisees and their scribes complained to Jesus’ disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”

31Yesu kedika kalonga, “Wanhu wagima hawamulonda mganga, ila waja wali watamu wawo womulonda.Jesus answered, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.

32Sizile kuwakema wanhu walibule vilozo, ila wanhu wali na vilozo waleke vilozo vao.”I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”

33Wanhu wamulongela Yesu, “Wanahina wa Yohana M'batiza wofunga mianza bwando na kutambika, na wanahina wa Mafalisayo wotenda vivo. Ila wanahina zako woja na kung'wa.”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 kawalongela, “Mokwagiza modaha kuwatenda wambwiga za mulawilamhambe wafunge kipigiti mulawilamhambe yang'hali hamoja nawo?Jesus replied, “Can you make the guests of the bridegroom fast while He is with them?

35Ila kipigiti chovika avija mulawilamhambe vondayasegezigwe hamwao, aho baho vondawafunge.”But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.”

36Vivija Yesu kawalongela hala dino. “Haduhu munhu yokanha kidanga cha kivalo cha sambi na kukigela mkivalo cha mwaka. Kamba yahatenda avo, kokidega ikivalo cha sambi, na acho ikidanga cha ikivalo cha sambi hakilumba mkivalo cha mwaka.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.

37Vivija wanhu hawagela divai ya sambi muna vibuyu va umwaka vitendigwe na kwembe, kwavija ija idivai ya sambi yovitula ivibuyu vitendigwe na kwembe, avo idivai yokwitika na vibuyu vitendigwe na kwembe vobanangika.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.

38Vilumbaga, divai ya sambi igeligwe muna vibuyu va sambi vitendigwe na kwembe.Instead, new wine is poured into new wineskins.

39Na haduhu munhu yolondaga divai ya sambi kuno yeshile kung'wa divai ya mwaka, mana kolonga, ‘Ya mwaka ibanza kunoga.’ ”And no one after drinking old wine wants new, for he says, ‘The old is better.’”
