Luke 24 (ZGAM) · Opened

1Isikhu iya khwanja iya mulungu panavusikhu wukhilo, vakhincha khulipumba, vakhagega imono inchuvavikhile.On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women came to the tomb, bringing the spices they had prepared.

2Vakhavona iliwe libelwikhe khuvutali nelipumba.They found the stone rolled away from the tomb,

3Vakhigila mugati, savakhuvuna umbili ukhwa kuludeva u Yesu.but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.

4Ikhahumila ukhuta usikhi wuvancha ganyikhiwe khueli, nambivi, avanu vavili vakhima pagati pavene vafualile imienda ig'iga ragadekhaa.While they were puzzling over this, suddenly two men in radiant apparel stood beside them.

5Avadala vakhadega ulususuvalo vakhasulekha imifwe givo pasi, vakhavula avadala, “Khekhi mukhondonda uvianchukhile kufwe?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?

6Asipali apa, anchukhile! mkumbukhe uwoachovile numwe wualikhu Galilaya,He is not here; He has risen! Remember how He told you while He was still in Galilee:

7Akhanchova ukhuta umwana va Ndaveti mpakha ahumenchiwe mumavokho gavatula nungwa nukhutefiwe, isikhu iyadatu, anchukhe khavili.”‘The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.’”

8Avadala valavakha khumbukhe amaneyu gamwene,Then they remembered His words.

9Vakhakhilivukha ukhuhuma khulipumba vakhavavula inogwa incho nchoni vala khinchigo nayumo paninie navagevoni.And when they returned from the tomb, they reported all these things to the Eleven and to all the others.

10Pwu uMaria Magadarene, Joana, Maria u mama va Yakhobo, navadala avage paninie vakhakhumiya udomo ugu khuvasukhiwa.It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them who told this to the apostles.

11Pwu amameyu agha khagha vonekha vudesi khuvasukhiwa, savakhavidekha avadala vala.But their words seemed like nonsense to them, and they did not believe the women.

12U Peteli akhasisimukha, akhagilaukhuluta khulipumba, alikhu hugila nukhulola mugati, akhayevona isandayene. Pwu u Peteli akhahega ukhuluta khu nyumba ya mwene, alikhudega khikhi khihumile.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.

13Lola, vavili pakhati pavene valikhulutaikhigono khilakhila mumbunchege uvotambuliwa Emmau, khuyeleimaili sitini ukhuma khu Yerusalemu.That same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.

14Valikhunchova vavokhwa vavo inogwa nchoni inchihumile.They were talking with each other about everything that had happened.

15Usekhe vavile vikhinchofancha nukhu vunchana amaswali, u Yesu akhahegelela pawipi akhalogonchana navo.And as they talked and deliberated, Jesus Himself came up and walked along with them.

16Amikho gavene gakhadendiwa ukhumanya umwene.But their eyes were kept from recognizing Him.

17U Yesu akhavavula, “Khinu khikhi ikhyumwinchova umwe vavili mwu mugenda?” Vakhima pala vakhava na lususuvalo.He asked them, “What are you discussing so intently as you walk along?” They stood still, with sadness on their faces.

18Yumu ilitawalyamwene vecleopa, akhanda, '“Uve veve munu vimwe ne apa pa Yerusalemu yuwe supulikhe inogwa inchihumile khunu iskhu inchi?”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?”

19U Yesu akhavavula, “Nogwa nyikhi?” Vakhanda, “Inogwa incha Yesu Unazareti, uviakhale Nyamalago, unyamakha khumbombo na mameyu khumiho ga Nguluve na khuvanu voni.“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.

20Avatwa navalogonchi veto vakhaghu minche khuhegiwa uvufwe nu khu budiwa.Our chief priests and rulers delivered Him up to the sentence of death, and they crucified Him.

21Tulikhuhuvila ukhuta umwene veikhuvavikha mumbolegefu avaya Israeli. Paninie ninchi nchoni, ilelo khigano khyadatu ukhuhuma imbombo inchi nchivombekha.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.

22Pwu vaninie avadala ukhuhuma khukhipuga khyeto vakhatudwaanchinehe, wuvalutile panavusikhu khulipumba.Furthermore, some of our women astounded us. They were at the tomb early this morning,

23Swaguwene umbili gwa mwene, vinaile vinchova ukhuta vakha lolile avasug'wa avakhakha nchovile ukhuta anchukhile mwumi.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.

24Avagosiavage avakhalale paninie nufwe vakhalutile kulipumba, vanchiwene nduwuvakha nchovile avadala. Savakhambone umwene.”Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had described. But Him they did not see.”

25U Yesu akhavavula, “umwe mwavanu vapelwa mleninumbula inchifu inchakhulekha ukhwidikha nchoni unchovachovile avayamalago!Then Jesus said to them, “O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!

26Sayalelweli u Yesu ukhutesiwa khunogwa incho, nukhwigila kuludeva kwa mwene?”Was it not necessary for the Christ to suffer these things and then to enter His glory?”

27Ukhutegulila khwa Mose na vasug'wa voni, u Yesu akhavavula imbombo inchamwene inchilembufimbe woni.And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, He explained to them what was written in all the Scriptures about Himself.

28Vavile vakhegelile mumbunchege vula, valikhuluta u Yesu akhava inogwa ukhwendelela khuvulugolo.As they approached the village where they were headed, He seemed to be going farther.

29Vakhamwumilencha, vakhata, “Lama paninie nufwe, ilwakhuva lino wilile nesikhu yesilile.”Pwu u Yesu akhigila khutama navo.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.

30Yakhumile ukhuta, avile atamile navo pakhulya, akhatola ikhivanda akhakhisaya, nukhumenyula, akhavapa.While He was reclining at the table with them, He took bread, spoke a blessing and broke it, and gave it to them.

31Pwu amikho gavene gakhadenduliwa vakhamanye, akhayaganikha nambivi khumikho gavene.Then their eyes were opened and they recognized Jesus—and He disappeared from their sight.

32Vakhavunchena vavo khwa vavo, “Ulu inumbula ncheta sanchikhavikhe mugati ndufwe, usekhe wuinchova nufwe munjila, wuikhutundindulila uvusimbe?”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?”

33Vakhema usikhe gugwa, nukhukhilivukha khu Yerusalemu. Vakhavavona vala khinchigo nayumo valundamine paninie, navalaavale paninie navo,And they got up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven and those with them, gathered together

34Vakhata, Untwa anchukhile lweli lweli, agumile u Simoni.”and saying, “The Lord has indeed risen and has appeared to Simon!”

35Pwuvakhavavula imbombo inchihumile munchele, nuwu u Yesu avonikhe khuvene khuvene pakhumeyule inchivanda.Then the two told what had happened on the road, and how they had recognized Jesus in the breaking of the bread.

36Wuvinchova inogwa incho, u Yesu yuywa akhema pagati pavene, akhavavula, “uluhungu luve numwe.”While they were describing these events, Jesus Himself stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.”

37Vakhadwada lukhadega ulutende, vali khusaga ukhuta vayewene inumbula.But they were startled and frightened, thinking they had seen a spirit.

38U Yesu akhavavula, khekhi msikhitikha? Khekhi amameyu gilihuma munumbula ncheyo?“Why are you troubled,” Jesus asked, “and why do doubts arise in your hearts?

39Mlolage amavokho gago namalunde gago, ukhuta neneyune. Muyilate mlole. Ulwakhwa inimbula yenchila nyamana manchege, nduwumwilola une nilinafyo.”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.”

40Avileamale akhunchova, ewo, akhavavonesya amavokho gamwene namalunde gamwene.And when He had said this, He showed them His hands and feet.

41Vavilebadu vakhowike nukhulekha ukhwidikha, nukhuswiga, u Yesu akhavavula, “Mulinakhyo akhyakula?”While they were still in disbelief because of their joy and amazement, He asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?”

42Vakhampaekhemegu khyasomba iyuvanyanyile.So they gave Him a piece of broiled fish,

43U Yesu akhatola nukhula khuvulogolo uhuvene.and He took it and ate it in front of them.

44Akhavavula, “Upwunekhale numwe, nikhavavulile ukhuta nchoni inchisi mbiwe khudagilo invha Mose navanyamalago ne Zaburi impakha nchi khwela nile.”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.”

45Pwu akhadendula igala nchova, ukhuta vavumaye uvusimbe.Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures.

46Akhavavula, “Ukhuta yesimbiwe, u Kreste mpakha atesekhe, nukhunchhukha ukhuhuma kuvufwe ikhigono ikhya datu.And He told them, “This is what is written: The Christ will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day,

47Ukhupela nukhusyekheliwa imbivi impakha nchilumbeliliwe khulitawa lya mwene khuviluga fyoni, ukhuma khu Yerusalemu.and in His name repentance and forgiveness of sins will be proclaimed to all nations, beginning in Jerusalem.

48Numwe mlivamasaidi va nogwa inchi.You are witnesses of these things.

49Mlolage, nikhuvahelekhela ululegilo lwa Dada vago khukyanya khulimwe. Pwu mpulikhele bahapa mumbunchega mpakha apyamvikhava amakha ukhuhuma khukyanya.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.”

50Pwu u Yesu akhavalogoncha ichunji impakha vavilevafikhe khu Bethania. Akhinula amavokho gamwe khu khyanya, akhavasaya.When Jesus had led them out as far as Bethany, He lifted up His hands and blessed them.

51Ikhahumila avile ikhuvasaya, akhava lekha akhapimbiwa ukhuluta khukhyaWhile He was blessing them, He left them and was carried up into heaven.

52Pwu vakhamindekha, nukhuvuya khu Yerusalemu vahowikhe.And they worshiped Him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy,

53Valikhupitama mtembile wuvikhudova Unguluve.praising God continually in the temple.
