Luke 7 (ZAK) · Opened

1Hano Yeesu yamariri okubhabhuurira esaango ya abhaatu amangʼana gayo goosi, akagya akasikira mumugye gwa Kaperinaumu.When Jesus had concluded His discourse in the hearing of the people, He went to Capernaum.

2Mumugye guyo yaari arimu omukuru owumwe wa abhasirikare bhe Ekirooma. Omusirikare wuyo, yaari no omuhokya wuno yaamuseegiri bhukongʼu, nawe omuhokya wuyo yaari omurweeri wo okukwa.There a highly valued servant of a centurion was sick and about to die.

3Kimwe, omusirikare wuyo, hano akiigwa engʼana iguru ya Yeesu, akatuma abhakaruka abhaandi bha Abhayahudi ku Yeesu, bhamusabhe yiize okumuhorya omuhokya waaye.When the centurion heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders to ask Him to come and heal his servant.

4Abhakaruka bhayo, hano bhaahikiri ku Yeesu, bhakamwiisasaama bhukongʼu, bhakamubhuurira, “Omuutu wuno, areenderwa omukorere engʼana yino,They came to Jesus and pleaded with Him earnestly, “This man is worthy to have You grant this,

5kwo okubha aseegiri abhaatu bha mukyaaro kyeetu. Na niwe atwoombokeeri enyuumba yeetu ye esaango.”for he loves our nation and has built our synagogue.”

6Niho Yeesu akagya hamwe na abhakaruka bhayo. Na hano bhaari bhagwiisukiiri omugye gwo omukuru wa abhasirikare, omukuru wuyo akatuma abhasaani bhaaye, bhakagya ne engʼana ku Yeesu, bhakamubhuurira, “Ee Omukuru, otiinyaakya bhukongʼu, kwo okubha nitakungʼarira osikire owaane.So Jesus went with them. But when He was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends with the message: “Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy to have You come under my roof.

7Nikarora kubha nitakweenderwa kuuza owaazo. Nawe gaamba engʼana yimwe ego, omuhokya waane arahora.That is why I did not consider myself worthy to come to You. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed.

8Nimenyiri arahora, kwo okubha enye noosi niri iyaasi wa abhakuru bhaane, na ninabho abhasirikare iyaasi waane. Ndaamubhuurire owumwe, ‘Noogye,’ aragya. Ndaamubhuurire owuundi, ‘Nawuuze,’ woosi araaza. No omugya waane, ndaamubhuurire, ‘Kora ego,’ niigo araakore.”For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell one to go, and he goes, and another to come, and he comes. I tell my servant to do something, and he does it.”

9Hano Yeesu akiigwa gayo, akamuruguura bhukongʼu. Akiikibhukira esaango ya abhaatu bhano bhaari bharamutuniirira, akabhabhuurira, “Ndabhabhuurira, naabhe gati wa Abhiiziraeri bhoosi, nikyaari kurora omuutu wowoosi wo obhwiikirirya bhukuru kya bhuno!”When Jesus heard this, He marveled at the centurion. Turning to the crowd following Him, He said, “I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith.”

10Na hano abhasaani bho omusirikare bhaakyooriri mumugye gwo omusirikare wuyo, bhakabhona omuhokya ahoriri.And when the messengers returned to the house, they found the servant in good health.

11Eriibhaga isuuhu, Yeesu akagya kumugye gwa Naini, hamwe na abhaanabheega bhaaye, na abhaatu abhaandi bhaaru bhaari bharamutuniirira.Soon afterward, Jesus went to a town called Nain. His disciples went with Him, accompanied by a large crowd.

12Na hano yaari ariisukira ekisyooko kyo omugye, akasikana na abhaatu bhano bhaari bhakigegiri ekituundu kyo omumura bharakihira igutu yo omugye. Omumura wuyo, yaari omwaana omweene kunina, neewe yaari omutuumba. Omukari wuyo, yaari arageendania na abhaatu bhaaru bho omugye guyo.As He approached the town gate, He saw a dead man being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the town was with her.

13Hano Omukuru yamuruuzi omutuumba wuyo, akamurorera ebhigoongi, akamubhuurira, “Otarira.”When the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her and said, “Do not weep.”

14Akiisukira ekirago kino omuku yaari iguru waku, akakikuniaku. Na abhaatu bhano bhaari bhakigegiri, bhakiimeerera. Yeesu akabhuga, “Awe omumura, ndakubhuurira, bhuuka!”Then He went up and touched the coffin, and those carrying it stood still. “Young man,” He said, “I tell you, get up!”

15Omumura wurya yaari akuuri, hayohayo akabhuuka, akiikara, akataanga kukeerenia kweeki. Niho, Yeesu akamugwaatya nina waabhu.And the dead man sat up and began to speak! Then Jesus gave him back to his mother.

16Abhaatu bhayo bhoosi, bhakaruguura no okugwaatwa no obhwoobha bhwaaru, bhakataanga kumukumya Taatabhugya, bharabhuga, “Omurooti omukuru arweereri gati yeetu!” Bhakagaamba kweeki, “Taatabhugya yiiziri kusakirya abhaatu bhaaye!”A sense of awe swept over all of them, and they glorified God. “A great prophet has appeared among us!” they said. “God has visited His people!”

17Na amangʼana gayo iguru ya Yeesu, gakanyaragana bhukongʼu mu Yudea yoosi, na mubhyaaro ebhiindi bhya haguhi.And the news about Jesus spread throughout Judea and all the surrounding region.

18Hano Yeesu ahaabha arakora gayo goosi, Yohana akiigwa amangʼana okurwa kubhaanabheega bhaaye.Then John’s disciples informed him about all these things.

19Kweego Yohana neewe akabhabhirikira abhabhiri bhaabhu, akabhatuma bhagye kumubhuurya Yeesu, “Awe naawe Masiya wuno araaze, kasi tumuganye owuundi?”So John called two of his disciples and sent them to ask the Lord, “Are You the One who was to come, or should we look for someone else?”

20Hano abhabhiri bhayo bhaamuhikiiri, bhakamubhuurira, “Yohana Omubatiizi atutumiri kwaawe, tukubhuurye, ‘Awe naawe Masiya wuno araaze, kasi tumuganye owuundi?’ ”When the men came to Jesus, they said, “John the Baptist sent us to ask, ‘Are You the One who was to come, or should we look for someone else?’”

21Kwiibhaga riyoriyo, Yeesu ahaabha arahorya abhaatu bhaaru amarweeri gaabhu, na bhano bhaari bhayaangahiri na amasaambwa amabhi. Na ahaabha arahorya abhahoku bhaaru, bharore.At that very hour Jesus healed many people of their diseases, afflictions, and evil spirits, and He gave sight to many who were blind.

22Niho, Yeesu akabhakyoora, “Mugye mumubhuurire Yohana gano muruuzi, na gano mwiigwiiri. Abhahoku bhararora, amagata bharageenda, abhageenge bharahora, abharibhi bha amatwi bhariigwa, abhaku bhararyoorwa na abhataka bhararwaazirwa Amangʼana Amazomu ga Taatabhugya.So He replied, “Go back and report to John what you have seen and heard: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is preached to the poor.

23Hakiriku omuutu wuno akugeenderera kuniikirirya kutama kubha no obhwiitiimaati iguru waane!”Blessed is the one who does not fall away on account of Me.”

24Kumara abhabhiri bhayo bhakagya, Yeesu akataanga okubhuurira esaango ya abhaatu iguru wa Yohana. Akabhabhuurya, “Hano mwaagiiri mwiitirigo kurora Yohana, mbe, mukagya kuroraki? Mbe, mukagya kurora omuutu wuno akwiikirirya amangʼana goosi kyeego maara yino ekusiingiswa kwo obhukama? Zeyi.After John’s messengers had left, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed swaying in the wind?

25Ambe, mukagya kuroraki? Mbe, mukagya kumurora omuutu wuno yiibhohiri emyeenda emizomu? Zeyi. Abhaatu bhano bhakwiibhoha emyeenda gyo obhuguri obhukuru no okwiizomya kwo obhwaaru bhwe ebhigiro, bhayo bharabha bhariikara muziinyuumba zye ekitemi.Otherwise, what did you go out to see? A man dressed in fine clothes? Look, those who wear elegant clothing and live in luxury are found in palaces.

26“Nawe, mukagya kuroraki? Mbe, mukagya kumurora omurooti omurebhe? Eheene ni murooti, kweeki ndabhabhuurira, Yohana ni mukuru kukira omurooti.What then did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.

27Wuyo niwe wuno Amakaamo Amahoreeru gakubhuga iguru waaye, ‘Rora, ndamuragania omuhokya waane embere waazo, okubha akweeyeerye enzira.’”This is the one about whom it is written: ‘Behold, I will send My messenger ahead of You, who will prepare Your way before You.’

28Yeesu akabhuga kweeki, “Ndabhabhuurira obhuheene, mubhaatu bhoosi bhano bhiibhwiirwe mukyaaro akyaari kutuuka omukuru kukira Yohana Omubatiizi. Nawe omuutu omusuuhu kukira bhoosi mubhutemi bhwa Taatabhugya, niwe omukuru kukira Yohana Omubatiizi.”I tell you, among those born of women there is no one greater than John, yet even the least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.”

29Abhaatu bhayo bhoosi, hamwe na abhatobhya bhe eriigooti, hano bhakiigwa amangʼana ga Yeesu, bhakiikirirya kubha amiiseego ga Taatabhugya gaari mazomu, kwo okubha nibho bharya Yohana yabhabatiiziri.All the people who heard this, even the tax collectors, acknowledged God’s justice. For they had received the baptism of John.

30Nawe Abhafarisayo na abheegya bhe emigiro, bhakaanga amiiseegi ga Taatabhugya kweebho, kwo okubha bhataabatiizirwe na Yohana.But the Pharisees and experts in the law rejected God’s purpose for themselves, because they had not been baptized by John.

31Kweeki Yeesu akabhuga, “Abhaatu bho orwiibhuro runo, nibhatuubhanie naki? Ni bha tuubhoki?“To what, then, can I compare the men of this generation? What are they like?

32Bhatuubheeni na abhaana bhano bhakwiikara kumuteera, bharabhirikira abharikyaabhu, ‘Tukabhatemera ekireere, nawe mutaabhiniri! Tukabheembera ameembo go okwaaramira, nawe mutaaririri!’They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling out to one another: ‘We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not weep.’

33“Kweego, hano Yohana Omubatiizi yiiziri, yaari atakurya emikaate, naabhe okunywa amaanzi go omuzabibu. Emwe muragaamba kubha, agwaatirwe ne eriisaambwa eriibhi!For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon!’

34Enye Omwaana wo Omuutu hano niiziri, nihaabha ndarya ebhyaakurya bhye eziisiku zyoosi na nihaanywa amaanzi go omuzabibu, bhakabhuga, ‘Murore! Wuno ni musoohu no omunywi, kweeki ni musaani wa abhatobhya bhe eriigooti, na abhaatu bhe ebhibhi!’The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Look at this glutton and drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’

35Nawe, amangʼeeni ga Taatabhugya gararorekana kubha ge eheene kwe enzira ya abhaatu bhoosi bhano bhakumwiigwa.”But wisdom is vindicated by all her children.”

36Yaari ariho Omufarisayo owumwe, akamuginihya Yeesu yiize kurya owaaye. Niho, Yeesu akasikira mumugye gwaaye, akabha mwiigari.Then one of the Pharisees invited Jesus to eat with him, and He entered the Pharisee’s house and reclined at the table.

37Na mumugye muyo, yaari arimu omukari owumwe, wuno amenyekeeni kubha ariikara obhwiikari obhubhi. Omukari wurya, hano akiigwa kubha Yeesu ararya wo Omufarisayo wuyo, akasikira muyo ne enzubha yino ekorirwe ne eriigina eryeero, na yaari etuurirwemu amaguta gano gakureetya.When a sinful woman from that town learned that Jesus was dining there, she brought an alabaster jar of perfume.

38Akiimeerera haguhi na amaguru ga Yeesu, akataanga kurira. Eziingusuri zaaye zikatoonyera amaguru ga Yeesu, yaari arazitarikya ne eziinzweeri zyaaye, akahuumbatahuumbata amaguru gaaye, no okumuhaka amaguta go omuruumbaaso.As she stood behind Him at His feet weeping, she began to wet His feet with her tears and wipe them with her hair. Then she kissed His feet and anointed them with the perfume.

39Omufarisayo wuyo, hano yaruuzi gayo, akiiseega mukoro yaaye, “Omuutu wuno, yaangabheeri omurooti, yaangamenyiri kubha, omukari wuno akumukunia, ni muutu wa tuubhoki. Yaangamenyiri kubha, ewe ariikara obhwiikari obhubhi!”When the Pharisee who had invited Jesus saw this, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet, He would know who this is and what kind of woman is touching Him—for she is a sinner!”

40Yeesu akamubhuurira, “Awe Simooni, nine engʼana yo okukubhuurira.” Woosi akamukyoora, “Ee Omweegya, mbuurira.” Niho, Yeesu akabhuga,But Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” “Tell me, Teacher,” he said.

41“Bhahaabhaho abhaatu bhabhiri, bhano bhoosi bhaari bharatunibhwa eziimbirya no omuhaani. Owumwe waabhu, ahaabha agegiri eziidinaari magana ataano (500). Omurikyaaye woosi, akagega eziidinaari miroongo etaano (50).“Two men were debtors to a certain moneylender. One owed him five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.

42Bhoosi bhabhiri, bhakabhurwa eziimbirya zyo okumuriha endihi yo omuhaani wuyo. Kyaamwe omuhaani akabhaabhira, bhatariha. Bhoono, gati wa abhabhiri bhayo, ni wuuhe araamuseege bhukongʼu?”When they were unable to repay him, he forgave both of them. Which one, then, will love him more?”

43Simooni akamukyoora, “Ndiiseega kubha, arabha ni wurya yaabhiirwe endihi ekuru.” Yeesu akamubhuurira, “Eriikyooro ryaazo ni zomu.”“I suppose the one who was forgiven more,” Simon replied. “You have judged correctly,” Jesus said.

44Niho, Yeesu akamwiikibhukira omukari wuyo, akamubhuurira Simooni, “Oramurora omukari wuno? Kweema nisikiiri mumugye gwaazo, otaanisuungʼaaniri kwo okuuniha amaanzi go okwiisaabha amaguru gaane, nawe ewe, aniisaabhirye amaguru gaane ne eziingusuri zaaye, no okugatarikya ne eziinzweeri zaaye.And turning toward the woman, He said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? When I entered your house, you did not give Me water for My feet, but she wet My feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair.

45Na hano wanikeerirye, otaanihuumbatiri, nawe ewe, okurwa eriibhaga nisikiiri muno, akyaari kurosa kuhuumbata amaguru gaane.You did not greet Me with a kiss, but she has not stopped kissing My feet since I arrived.

46Otaanisuukiri kwo okunihaka amaguta omutwe gwaane, nawe ewe, ahakiri amaguru gaane, amaguta go okureetya!You did not anoint My head with oil, but she has anointed My feet with perfume.

47Kweego ndakubhuurira, kwo okubha ebhibhi bhyaaye bhyaaru bhyaabhiirwe, akeerekya obhuseegi bhwaaru. Kyaamwe, wuyo woosi wuno yaabhiirwe ebhibhi bhisuuhu, areerekya obhuseegi bhusuuhu.”Therefore I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven, for she has loved much. But he who has been forgiven little loves little.”

48Niho, Yeesu akamubhuurira omukari wuyo, “Nikwaabhiiri ebhibhi bhyaazo.”Then Jesus said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”

49Abhagini abhaandi bhano bhaari mwiigari, bhakataanga kwiibhuurya, “Ni weewi wuno, aratura okwaabhira ebhibhi?”But those at the table began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”

50Niho, Yeesu akamubhuurira omukari wuyo, “Obhwiikirirya bhwaazo bhukuhonirye. Ogye no omureembe.”And Jesus told the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go in peace.”
