Luke 13 (ZGAM) · Opened

1Khunsikhi gugugwa, khwale na vanu avambulile ukhuta avagalatia avu u Pilato avabudile nu khuhanjaniya nu khisa gwavo ne ni vyavupe.At that time some of those present told Jesus about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.

2U Yisu aandile nu khuvavula, “Lino mwita avagalatia avo vale nu vutula nogwa ukhulutilila avagalatia avange voni khe mene vupilile nu vavivi iuwa?To this He replied, “Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered this way?

3Bakho, nikhuvavula, nete mungave samkhute, umwe ayumwiyaga vutevule.No, I tell you. But unless you repent, you too will all perish.

4Upu vale avanu “18” khusiloomu upu unara gwagyile nu khuvabudi pumsaga ukhuta avene vale nuvulula nogwa ukhulutilila khu vanu avange khu Yerusalemu?Or those eighteen who were killed when the tower of Siloam collapsed on them: Do you think that they were more sinful than all the others living in Jerusalem?

5Bakho, une ninchova, mungalekhe ukhukhuta, umwe mwivoni punikhwavela.No, I tell you. But unless you repent, you too will all perish.”

6U Yisu avavulile ikhikhwani ikhi, “Umunu umo ale ne libikhi avyalile khu khyalo khya mwene nu khuluta khulonda isekhe khukya na sapate.Then Jesus told this parable: “A man had a fig tree that was planted in his vineyard. He went to look for fruit on it but did not find any.

7Akhambula uvi alolelaga ikyalo, 'Lola, khu miakha gi datu nainchile nukhugela ukhulonda isekhe khu bikhi ugwa sanapate khinu. Udumule. Ulwa khuva gutela uvuvivi uwa khilunga?So he said to the keeper of the vineyard, ‘Look, for the past three years I have come to search for fruit on this fig tree and haven’t found any. Therefore cut it down! Why should it use up the soil?’

8Uvi lolela ikyalo aandile nukhunchova ukhuta, 'Ugulekhe umwakha ugu nilinilile nu khuvikha imbolela, pakyanya.‘Sir,’ the man replied, ‘leave it alone again this year, until I dig around it and fertilize it.

9Gunguhupe isekhe umwakha ugukhwincha lunovu, pu; gungave saguhupa, ugide!”If it bears fruit next year, fine. But if not, you can cut it down.’”

10Lino u Yisu ale nu khumanyisya khu vanu vaninye na vasinagogi khusikhi ugwa sabato.One Sabbath Jesus was teaching in one of the synagogues,

11Lola, alepwale ujiu umo uvi ale ne miakha “18” ale ne mumbula inchafu, nu mwene ale abudiwe imbula mbaubo iyave nchaga na khukhwima.and a woman there had been disabled by a spirit for eighteen years. She was hunched over and could not stand up straight.

12U Yisu vuambwene, akhamwilanga, “akhambula, “Jiu, uvikhwe ukhuva mbulegefu ukhuhuma imbupepe wakho.”When Jesus saw her, He called her over and said, “Woman, you are set free from your disability.”

13Akhambikha amavokho gwa mwene pa kyanya pa mbili ugwa mwene akhimikha amavokho nu khuginiya Unguluve.Then He placed His hands on her, and immediately she straightened up and began to glorify God.

14Pu umbaha va sinagogi avipile ukhuva u Yisu aponinche umunu isikhu iya sabato. Lino umbaha va khilunga akhanda akhavavula avanyalulundamano, “Khulo isikhu 6 incha khuvomba imbombo. Mwinchage khupokhiwa wonela isikhu iya sabato. 'But the synagogue leader was indignant that Jesus had healed on the Sabbath. “There are six days for work,” he told the crowd. “So come and be healed on those days and not on the Sabbath.”

15Utwa akhanda nu khunchava, “avanyagila vasikhuli nu mo ukhudindula ipunda yakho, isenga ukhuhuma khulipalo nu khwalongoncha ukhulua khwinuwa isikhu iya sabato?“You hypocrites!” the Lord replied. “Does not each of you on the Sabbath untie his ox or donkey from the stall and lead it to water?

16Lino avahincha va Abrahamu, avuvene undugu akhungile khu miakha “18” lino wanogilwe ikhi khungilwa ikhyo khilekhe ukhudinduliwa isikhu iya sabato?”Then should not this daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has kept bound for eighteen long years, be released from her bondage on the Sabbath day?”

17Vu inchova amamenyu ago vala voni avabelile vakhavona soni, pu avanyalulundamano voni na vange valulutile ulwakhuva amambo agakhudega agu avombile.When Jesus said this, all His adversaries were humiliated. And the whole crowd rejoiced at all the glorious things He was doing.

18U Yisu akhanchova, “Uvutwa wa Nguluve vukhwanine ne khikhi, vuwesya ukhukhwananincha ne khikhi?Then Jesus asked, “What is the kingdom of God like? To what can I compare it?

19Nilindi mbegu iya haradai iyiatolile umunu umo nu khuyivyala mukyalo kya mwene nu khumela ukhuva libikhi ilivaha, ni ifidehe ifya khukhyanya vikhajenga uvufumba wavo mumasesi aga bikhi.It is like a mustard seed that a man tossed into his garden. It grew and became a tree, and the birds of the air nested in its branches.”

20Hange akhanchova, “Nu khukhwananincha nu vutwa uwa Nguluve?Again He asked, “To what can I compare the kingdom of God?

21Yale ukhuta khiluve ikhi udala atolile nu khuhanchaniya khuvigelelo fidatu “3” ifya vutine nu khutoga.”It is like leaven that a woman took and mixed into three measures of flour, until all of it was leavened.”

22U Yisu agendile imbunchengene vijiji munjila vuiluta khu Yerusalemu nu khuvamanyisya.Then Jesus traveled throughout the towns and villages, teaching as He made His way toward Jerusalem.

23Umunu umo avunchehe, “Itwa, vuvale avayakhiva vipokhiwa?” Lino akhavavula,“Lord,” someone asked Him, “will only a few people be saved?” Jesus answered,

24“Witange ukhwingila ukhugendela undyango usekhele, ulwakhuva vingi yu vigela nu khusita ukhwingila.“Make every effort to enter through the narrow door. For many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able.

25Nu sikhi ugwa undoleli va nyumba ukhima nu khudinda undyango, pu mukhwima khunji nu khugonga ndindulilo nu khunchova, Itwa, Itwa, tudindulile, umwene akhanda nu khuvavula, sanivamanyile umwe nu khuvuhuma.'After the master of the house gets up and shuts the door, you will stand outside knocking and saying, ‘Lord, open the door for us.’ But he will reply, ‘I do not know where you are from.’

26Pu yumwinchova, Twalile nu khunywa khuvulongoo khu vene, wa manyisye khuvunchenge uweto.”Then you will say, ‘We ate and drank with you, and you taught in our streets.’

27Pu umwene akhavanda, sanivamanyile ukhumwihuma, hega khulyune, umwe mwivavomba imbivi!'And he will answer, ‘I tell you, I do not know where you are from. Depart from me, all you evildoers.’

28Khulova nu khulila nu khuheveta amino khusikhi ugulava mkhuvavona u Abrahamu, Isaka, Yakobo na avanyaalago voni khu vutwa u wa Nguluve, nu umwe yumwe mutagiwe khunji.There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but you yourselves are thrown out.

29Valincha ukhuhua khu vuhumo, na khuvusemo, khunena na khusikha, nu khugatalukha khu khisancha iya khya khulya ikya pa khimihe khu vutwa uwa Nguluve.People will come from east and west and north and south, and will recline at the table in the kingdom of God.

30Ne lumanyile ukhuta uva khuvumalilo iva vakhuvumalilo.”And indeed, some who are last will be first, and some who are first will be last.”

31Usikhiusupi, pongela gwiva gwaMafarisayo vainchilenu khumbula, “Luta nu khuhega apa ulwakhuva u Herode inogwa ukhubuda.”At that very hour, some Pharisees came to Jesus and told Him, “Leave this place and get away, because Herod wants to kill You.”

32U Yisu akhanchova, “Mulutage mukhambule imbweha yila, 'Lola, nikhugavinga amanguluve nu khuvomba ukhuponiya ilelo na khilavo ne isikhu iya datu yu nivomba uvigane wango.But Jesus replied, “Go tell that fox, ‘Look, I will keep driving out demons and healing people today and tomorrow, and on the third day I will reach My goal.’

33Pu usikhi ugwa venchaga unonu khu khuvunogwe wango ukhuluta ilelo, khilavo na khusikhu iyikhongile khuvala avasavisayiwa ukhubuda unyamalago khutali ne Yerusalemu.Nevertheless, I must keep going today and tomorrow and the next day, for it is not admissible for a prophet to perish outside of Jerusalem.

34Yerusalemu, Yerusalemu, veni uvibuda avanyamalago nu khuvatova na mawe vala avasuhiwa khulimwe, khalikhalingi nenogilwe ukhuvalunde maniya avana avadebe khulyu mwe ndi hukhu vuyilundamaniye inyamahukhu ifya pasi mumapapalilo aga hukhu, ingawa samwa nogwe ili.O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kills the prophets and stones those sent to her, how often I have longed to gather your children together as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were unwilling!

35Lola, uvunjenge wakho vulekhiwe. Nune nikhuvavula, samukhawesye ukhumbona nu muyakhiva mwinchova 'Asayiwe uvikhincha khulitawa ilya ITWA.'”Look, your house is left to you desolate. And I tell you that you will not see Me again until you say, ‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord.’”
