Luke 17 (ZGAM) · Opened

1U Yesu akhavavula avakongi va mwene, “Imbombo inchi khuva pa lela avanu ukhutula inongwa nchinoge lanile ukhwinelia, lwamwene umunu uveiuhunchitalencha!Jesus said to His disciples, “It is inevitable that stumbling blocks will come, but woe to the one through whom they come!

2Yeve hei umunu uywa alwikhugiwe eliwe ilichitu ilyakhuhevetela msingo nukhu tagiwa khunyanja, khwomela ukhuva elela avana avadebe ukhuta vatule enongwa.It would be better for him to have a millstone hung around his neck and to be thrown into the sea than to cause one of these little ones to stumble.

3Mwelolelage. ulukhololwo angakumagile umbunge, umwene agapele usyekhile. Agakhunagile mara saba khusiku yemo khage mara saba khusiku yemo aginche khuliuve nukhunchova, 'nipelile, 'usyekhile!”Watch yourselves. If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.

5Avasukhwa vamwene vakhambula Dada, “Twogelekhenche ulwedekho lweto.”The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!”

6UYesu akhanchova, “Mwamuvinchage nulwedekho ulwa mbegu eya haradarii, mkhale mkhukuvula ubekhi ukhu ugwa nkuyu, 'hega pwu khukhamele munyanja,'gwope gwakhukhuvapulikha.And the Lord answered, “If you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you.

7Pwu veni pagati paliume, uvialinumbombi uveilema ikhyalo au uveidema igo'si, uveikhumbula wa humile khukyalo, inchaga nambivi utame ulye ikhyakhulya?Which of you whose servant comes in from plowing or shepherding in the field will say to him, ‘Come at once and sit down to eat’?

8Sakhambula, 'nelekhele ikhyakhulya nilye, pwu vikhuge utivo umbombelage impakha apya ni mala ukhulya nu khunywa. Pwa apo nayuve wilya nu kunywa?Instead, won’t he tell him, ‘Prepare my meal and dress yourself to serve me while I eat and drink, and afterward you may eat and drink’?

9Sakhasane umbombi uywa ulwakhuva avombile nchila inchavuliwe?Does he thank the servant because he did what he was told?

10Vule vule nayumwe mughavombe inchomuvuliwe munchovage 'ufwe twevavombi twisatunogelanile. Tuvombile nchila inchonchikhano gelanile ukhuvomba.'So you also, when you have done everything commanded of you, should say, ‘We are unworthy servants; we have only done our duty.’”

11Yakhumile wu ilota khuyerusalemu, agendile mundupakha ulwa khusamaria na khugalilaya.While Jesus was on His way to Jerusalem, He was passing between Samaria and Galilee.

12Avile ikhwigela mumbonchege vumo, ikhwa aagine na vanu khinchigo avuvale nuvukoma. Vakhima khuvutaliAs He entered one of the villages, He was met by ten lepers. They stood at a distance

13Vakhapwata vakhata “Yesu, Nkhuludeva tukholele ikhisa.”and raised their voices, shouting, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”

14Avile avawene akhavavula, “Mlutage mkavonekhe khuva vatwa makhuhani.”Navene vavile viluta vakhavalanchiwa.When Jesus saw them, He said, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And as they were on their way, they were cleansed.

15Yumo avileaponile, akhiliwike khukhuginia U Nguluve.When one of them saw that he was healed, he came back, praising God in a loud voice.

16Akhafugama mumalunde ga Yesu akhademya. Umwene ale Samaria.He fell facedown at Jesus’ feet in thanksgiving to Him—and he was a Samaritan.

17U Yesu akhanda, akhata, “Savaponole voni khinelugo? Valendakhu avange vala tisa?“Were not all ten cleansed?” Jesus asked. “Where then are the other nine?

18Asikhuli nayumo uviavonikhe ukhukilivukha khukhuginia U Nguluve, ila uyu ugesya?”Was no one found except this foreigner to return and give glory to God?”

19Akhambula, “Ema ulutage ulwidikho lwakho lukhuponinche.”Then Jesus said to him, “Rise and go; your faith has made you well!”

20Avileavunchiwe na avofarisayo uludeva lwaNguluve lwikhwincha ndeli, U Yesu akhanda akhata, “Uludeva lwa Nguluve sakhivile ndekhinu ikhivonekha.When asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, “The kingdom of God will not come with observable signs.

21Avanu savalanchova, 'Mulolage khunu!' au, 'Mulole khu! Ulwakhuva uludeva lwa Nguluve lulemugati mundimwe.”Nor will people say, ‘Look, here it is,’ or ‘There it is.’ For you see, the kingdom of God is in your midst.”

22UYesu akhavavula avakhongi va mwene, “akhavalilo yukhifikha mlanogwagwa ukhulola ikhigano khimo ikheya mwana va ndavite, samulakhuvona.Then He said to the disciples, “The time is coming when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, but you will not see it.

23Akhavavula, 'Mlolage, ukhu! Mlolage apa!' Mlekhe ukhuluta khwilola, nu khuvakhonga,People will tell you, ‘Look, there He is!’ or ‘Look, here He is!’ Do not go out or chase after them.

24Ndulumuli ulwa nchasi ulumulikha mkhiluga ulutegulila kuvunge nu khuluta khuvuge. Vule vule umwana va Ndaveti alincha ewo khukhigono ikhya mwene.For just as the lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one end to the other, so will be the Son of Man in His day.

25khuvutegulilo yenogiwa ukhugatanchiwa ni nongwa inyingi nukhubeliwa ne kkivumbumbukha ekhi.But first He must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.

26Nduwuyale ifigono ifya Nwakha, wuyilava woikhwincha umwana va Ndaveti. Valikulya, valikhunywa,Just as it was in the days of Noah, so also will it be in the days of the Son of Man:

27valikhutola nu khutoliwa ipakha akhavalilo akha UNwakha aingile mugalava yekhincha nukhuvabuda voni.People were eating and drinking, marrying and being given in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark. Then the flood came and destroyed them all.

28Wuyale khumisikhi igyaIt was the same in the days of Lot: People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building.

29U Loti, avile akhegile khusodoma, yekhafima ifula iya mwoto ne kiviliti ukhuma khukhiya vakhabudiwa voni.But on the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.

30Vwoyilava ewo ilinchova elyakhyu alincha umwana va Ndavati alavaivonekha.It will be just like that on the day the Son of Man is revealed.

31Ikhigono ikhyo, ulekheukhutavula uvalikhukhano munyumba ikhe atole ifinu munyumba. Na ulekhe ukhutavula uvialekhukyalo ukhuvuya khukaya.On that day, let no one on the housetop come down to retrieve his possessions. Likewise, let no one in the field return for anything he has left behind.

32Mkhumbukhe udala va Loti.Remember Lot’s wife!

33Uveavenchaga uveinogwa ukhupokha uvumi wa mwene ikhuvuyanchi, uveavenchaga avealeyancha uwumi wa mwene alapona.Whoever tries to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life will preserve it.

34Nikhuvavula, ikhilo iyo khulava na vanu vaveli pakhihaga khimo. Yumo itoliwa, uyuge isigala.I tell you, on that night two people will be in one bed: one will be taken and the other left.

35Khulava na vadala vaveli viheveta panie, yumo itoliwa uyuge isigala.”Two women will be grinding grain together: one will be taken and the other left.”

37Wakamwuliza, “Wapi, Mungu?” Akawaambia, “Pale ulipo mzoga, ndipo tai hukusanyika kwa pamoja.”“Where, Lord?” they asked. Jesus answered, “Wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather.”
