Luke 5 (ZGAM) · Opened

1Pwu lino gukhahumila unsikhi avanu upu valundamine nu khunchungula u Yisu nu khupulihicha ilimenyu lya Nguluve, upwu akhimile palukanji mndisiva lya Genesaleti.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,

2Akhavuvona uvwato vuvili vwimile khulukanji khulisiva. Avilova vakhavile vahumile pwu valikusukha inyafu cha vene.He saw two boats at the edge of the lake. The fishermen had left them and were washing their nets.

3UYisu akhingila mmbwato vumo uvwa Simoni nu khudova ahilikhe mundugasi patali padebe na khuvulagafu. Pwu akhatama nu khumanyisya ukhuhumile khuwato.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.

4Ukhuchova akhambula u Simoni, “Hilikauwato wako pamagasi pagati nu khwisya inyafu chakho pwalove isomba.”When Jesus had finished speaking, He said to Simon, “Put out into deep water and let down your nets for a catch.”

5USimoni akhanda akhata, Ikuludeva, tuvombile imbombo ikilo yoni, salukhibate, kwu limenyu lyakho, nikwisya inyafu.“Master,” Simon replied, “we have worked hard all night without catching anything. But because You say so, I will let down the nets.”

6Vavugahile evwo vakhahundamania isomba nyingi ni nyafu chavene chakhatengula ukhudumukha.When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to tear.

7Pwu vakhavavula avayavo avakhuvwato uvunge viche khutangila. Vakhiche vakhadicha uvwato vwoni, chikhatangula ukhuyuvama.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.

8Pwu Simoni Petro, avile alolile evo, akhagwa pa mafugamilo ga Yisu akhata, “Hega khuliune, ulwakhuve une nilumunu ntulanongwa Inkuludeva.”When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees. “Go away from me, Lord,” he said, “for I am a sinful man.”

9Ulwakhuva valikudega, ne voni uvuvalipwo nu mwene, pakhulova isomba uvuvakhavombile.For he and his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken,

10Ili likhavalundaminio uyakhobo nu Yohana umwana va Sebedayo, uvu ava vakhale paninie nu Simoni. Nu Yisu akhambula u Simoni, “ulekhe ukhudwada, ulwakuva ukhuhuma lino vulutoga kwilova avanu.”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.”

11Vuvavile valelile vwato khuvuchila lugasi, vakhakhikha kila khinu nu khunkonga umwene.And when they had brought their boats ashore, they left everything and followed Him.

12Pwu yikha humila ukhuta ujini gumo, umunu uvia digile iboba ale ukhwa. Unsikhi avile ikhumbona u Yisu, akhagwa akhinamila amiho ga mwene mpakha pasi nu khutova, akhata, “Inkuludeva, ingave vwinogwa, wiwesya ukuhumbalacha.”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.”

13Pwu Yisu akhagolola ikhivokho kya mwene nu khumwabasya, akhata, “Ninogwa. Valela.” Unsikhu gula gula ibuba yikhandekha.Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him.

14“Akhandagila alikhe ukhumbula umunu pwu akhambula, “Lutaga ukhavonesye, kumakuhani nu khumie isadaka ya vuvalacho vwakho, khi hwanini nu lulagilo lwa Mose ukhulola khuvene.”“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.”

15Pwu inongwa icha mwene chukhaluta khuvutali ficho, ni khipuga kya vanu khekhicha paninie khukho mpulihicha vwi manyisya nu khuponia amatamu gavene.But the news about Jesus spread all the more, and great crowds came to hear Him and to be healed of their sicknesses.

16Pwu imisikhi gyoni alikwiyepusya khuvutitu nu khwisaya.Yet He frequently withdrew to the wilderness to pray.

17Pu yeikhava mumanchuva ngala eilinchuva leimo pu amanyisyangha, ava Farisai navamanyisi vanda ngeilo valaamile baho, avuvahumile muvunchenghe vwoni uvwa Mungalileya na mumbu Yuta, na khu Yelusalemu. Pu navuvuvahaha wa Nkuludeva vwalepwo ukhuta pwa ponianghe avatamu.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.

18Avanu valive vakhancha, vagegde mulitefu umunu uvei aposinche, vakhalonda einjila ya khu mwing'eincha eigati va gonei pasi khuva longolo khwa Yisu.Just then some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They tried to bring him inside to set him before Jesus,

19Pu leino vavile valemilwe apa khunghenda pakhuva pale pafinye pasipali apakhuluta avanu vale vingi eilipungha eilivaha, pu vakhatongha khukyanya khukanu pavakha pelelencha mumapamba angha khukyanya puvakhamwisya utamu mukhei hangha khya mwene panghati pavalongolo upu ale u Yisu.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.

20Alolile uweedechi wayene, u Yisu akhaachove, “Imanyani, imbivi nchakho usyei khiliwe.”When Jesus saw their faith, He said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”

21Pu leino avamanya kalata nava Farisai valeinkuta, vei veni uyu uveinchova amamenyu ngha imbedo, veni uvyaleinamakha ngha khusyeikheila inogwa, pu nyakhusyei kheila alei yu Nguluve mwene?”But the scribes and Pharisees began thinking to themselves, “Who is this man who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

22UYisu, wikhulumanya khekhi ikhyo visaga, akhavanda akhata khekhi mkhivucha vucha ili munumbula chinyo?Knowing what they were thinking, Jesus replied, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?

23Khilekhu khejebepe ukhuta inongwa chakho chisyekheliwe nukhuta 'Ima ugendage?'Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’?

24Mlamanye ukhuta umwana va Adamu alinago amakha nkilunga ga khusiekhela inongwa, nukuvavula, 'Uveve sisimokha, tola ilitefu lyakho ulutage khu nyumba yakho.”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.”

25Unsikhi gugugwa akhasisimokha kuvulongolo khuvene pwu akhatola ilitefu lya mwene ilyu alikhugonela. Pwu alinkuvuya khu Unguluve.And immediately the man stood up before them, took what he had been lying on, and went home glorifying God.

26Umunu nu munu alinkhudega nu khunginia Unguluve. Vakhadiga nu uvudwacji, nu khuta, “Tuchiwene imbombo cha khudega ilelo.”Everyone was taken with amazement and glorified God. They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.”

27Imbombo ichi vuchihomile, u Yisu akhahuma ukhwa akhambona unsonga songa uvialikwelangiwa Lawi atamile apakhusongecha isongo. Akhambula, “Ingongege.”After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him,

28Pwu u Lawi akhavikha nu khunkonga, akhafilekha kila khinu khunsana.and Levi got up, left everything, and followed Him.

29Ulawi akhavikha ikhyakha ikhiva na khu nyumbaya mwene iya Yisu. Vakhavepo asonga songo vingi navanu vingi vatamile na vene.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.

30Ava Mafarisai na vasimbi vavo vali kuvasikhitile avakonga, vali uta, “Khekhi mwilya nu khunywa na vatule nongwa na vasonga songo na vanu avange avatula ningwa?”But the Pharisees and their scribes complained to Jesus’ disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”

31UYisu akavanda, “Avanu avanonu savilonela uganga, vala aratamu vu ya vikhondanda yumo.Jesus answered, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.

32Sanikhichile kukalonda avayihweli vapale hata nikhuviolanga avatula no ngwa vapele.”I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”

33Vakhavavula, “Avakongi va Yohana imisikhi gyoni nu valikhudinda nu khudova, avakongi va Mafarisai navope vivomba vule vule. Pwu avakongi vako vilya nu khunywa.”Then they said to Him, “John’s disciples and those of the Pharisees frequently fast and pray, but Yours keep on eating and drinking.”

34UYisu akhavavula, “Yiwesekhana umunu nu munu vala awafikhe khundoa ya nya ndoa widinda wu unyandoa vu bado pu paninie?Jesus replied, “Can you make the guests of the bridegroom fast while He is with them?

35Pwu ifigono fikhwicha unsikhi gwa nyandoayavikhung'echa kuvenu pwo ifigono ifyo yavidinda.”But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.”

36Khange u Yisu akhachova navene kwu khihwani. “Asikhuli uvilekha na ikhupicha kya mwenda ukhuhuma khumwenda umpya ukhunocha khumwenda ugwa khatale. Ingave ngavombe evwo, ikhugolekha umwenda umpya, na ikhipicha kya mwenda ukhuhuma umwenda umpya sakhinogelanila ukhuvomba nu mwenda unkulu.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.

37Khange, asikhuli umunu uvivekha idivai imya kufikopo ifya katale. Ingave ivomba ewo, idivai imya yikhale yibachola ikyombo, nayi divai yikhale yidudekha, ifichupa fikhala finangikho.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.

38Idivai imya lunonu ukhuvikha mufichupa ifipya.Instead, new wine is poured into new wineskins.

39Mwikho umunu vwa nywile idivai lya khatale, ukhunogwa imya, ulwakhuva ita, 'Iya khatale nonu.'”And no one after drinking old wine wants new, for he says, ‘The old is better.’”
