Luke 8 (ZGAM) · Opened

1Yahumila unsikhi usupi u Yisu akhava nu lugendo mu miji ni mijiji fingi alikukumbilila nu khuvavula inongwa inonu icha ludeva lwa Nguluve na vala kumi na mbili vakhaluta paninie nu mwene,Soon afterward, Jesus traveled from one town and village to another, preaching and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God. The Twelve were with Him,

2navavange avadala uvuva khaponile ukhuhuma kumepo imbivi nu mutamu ulipapingi. Vakhale vi Mariamu uviali kwilangiwa magadalena uvi va khahumiche imepo saba.as well as some women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,

3UYoana udala va kuza nu numbaha va Herode, Susana, na vadala avange vingi, uvuvakhahumicha ifyuma fyavene.Joanna the wife of Herod’s household manager Chuza, Susanna, and many others. These women were ministering to them out of their own means.

4Eikhipungha khya vanu vavile valundamine papanie ukhuhuma mwonimwoni mbunchenge, vu ava anchovangha navo mfihwananincho. Pa akhanchova eikheihwani akhata.While a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from town after town, He told them this parable:

5“alekhyo umunu uvei avyalyangha eimbiyu, avile ivyala, imbiyu inchinghe ncha nghwinchangha mundukanji munjeila pu avanu vakanya na malunde ifidenghe fya khukyanya fikhalya imbiyu incho.“A farmer went out to sow his seed. And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, where it was trampled, and the birds of the air devoured it.

6Inchinge imbiyu ncha nghwile pang'ang'a unghwa palunalawe ncha vile nchimelile vuuchi kula punchilikhunialalukha ulwakhuva sapale na magasi.Some fell on rocky ground, and when it came up, the seedlings withered because they had no moisture.

7Imbiyu inchinge nchikhanghwamumitwinyo pungheileinkula pupanie punchikheivunghuteila.Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up with it and choked the seedlings.

8Puleino imbeyu inchinge vu ilaha pakhuvyala palinkunghwa mung'ang'a unghunya mbolela nchikhamotekha punchikhahola isekhe nchunyingi. “Pu u Yisu avile anchovile ndavule pu akhanchova neilimenyu eilivaha fincho akhata, “Ula uvyaleini mbulukhuta inchakhupuleikha puapuleikhanghe.”Still other seed fell on good soil, where it sprang up and produced a crop—a hundredfold.” As Jesus said this, He called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”

9Pu khange avakongi va mwene vakhambuncha ikheihwani eikhyo khyukhuta kheikhi,Then His disciples asked Him what this parable meant.

10U Yisu akhavavula akhata, “Umwe muleihuba pakhuva munchimanyile nchila incha khuludeva lwa Nguluve. Pu leino avange vimanyeisiwangwa mfihwananincho, khuta pu vangalole valekhe ukhufivona, vangapuleikha valekhe ukhweliwa.'He replied, “The knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to others I speak in parables, so that, ‘though seeing, they may not see; though hearing, they may not understand.’

11Pu leino ikheihwananincho ikhei vakhiita, khukhuta. Eimbeyu lyulimenyu lya Nguluve.Now this is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God.

12Imbeyu nchila inchanghwile mundukanji munjeila vyu vanu avavipuleikha eilimenyu, pu ponghela undunghu usetano ikhwincha munumbula nvhavo puihencha eilimenyu leila eilyuvaleipulikhe ukhuta puvalekhe ukhulyeideikha nu khupokhiwa.The seeds along the path are those who hear, but the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved.

13Pu leino nchiila inchanghwile palunalawe vyu vanu vala avipuleikha eilimenyu nu khulyupeileila nu luhekhelo pu leino valei vula milela eighya khweitotekha, puvikhweideikha paseikhei unghwa khunghelivwa puvinghwa.The seeds on rocky ground are those who hear the word and receive it with joy, but they have no root. They believe for a season, but in the time of testing, they fall away.

14Nchombe imbeyu nchila incha nghwile mumatoni vyu vanu vala vavo vipukikha eilimenyu, pu leino inchankilunga nchikhuvapeinjeileihania imbombo incha vukavi ni fyuma nuvunonghwe uvwankeilunga pu savihola isekhe.The seeds that fell among the thorns are those who hear, but as they go on their way, they are choked by the worries, riches, and pleasures of this life, and their fruit does not mature.

15Pu leino imbeyu nchincho ncha nghwile ming'anga unghunya mote pakhuva nghuleineimbolela vyu vanu, vala avadekhedekhe ni numbula inonu, vavapulikhe eilimenyu vikhulibaleileila nu khuleikonga puvihola ni sekhe incha khweliyumeleincha.But the seeds on good soil are those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, cling to it, and by persevering produce a crop.

16Pu leino asikhuli umunu na yumo, uvi iwasya einyali nu khunghubeikheila nei ndelema hange siveikha pasi pakheisanja. Pu iveikha pa kyanya pavuhanghufu pakheisanja ukhuta avanu vavikhwingeila vavenchanghe vanu vakhula vukhuvalafu.No one lights a lamp and covers it with a jar or puts it under a bed. Instead, he sets it on a stand, so those who enter can see the light.

17Ulwakhuva kheisikhuli eikheiyakheiva khifihama, leve lyu limenyu leilyo saleikhamange ikheikhe nukhuva pavavalofu.For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be made known and brought to light.

18Pu leino muvenchanghe vanu vakhupuleikha nukhunchingahe incha nchila unchuvu puleikha pakhuva avyalei na khyo, uywavifikhyongelelangha vikhupinchangha, pu ula uvyaleivuvula na kheilakheila eikheidebe eikhya leinakhyo puvipokhangha khyope.”Pay attention, therefore, to how you listen. Whoever has will be given more, but whoever does not have, even what he thinks he has will be taken away from him.”

19Pu leino uvaninemwe va Yeisu na valukololwe puvakhanduteila pasavahenghelele pamwene savuli ya kheipungha khya vanu eikhyanchunghutile.Then Jesus’ mother and brothers came to see Him, but they were unable to reach Him because of the crowd.

20Pu vakhambula vakhata, “Uvanine mwa vakho navalukololyo veimile panchi vilonda ukhwa nghanila nuve.He was told, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to see You.”

21Pu leino, u Yeisu akhata”, Ujyuva vango navalukolo lwango vyu vala avikhuleipuleikha eilimenyu lya Nguluve nukhuleikonga.”But He replied, “My mother and brothers are those who hear the word of God and carry it out.”

22Pu yeikhava eiliinchuva leimo u Yeisu navakongi vamwene vakhingeila muvwato, pu akhavavula akhata, “Pu tulove khe einyanja tulute khumwambo, puvakhatesyania uvwato.One day Jesus said to His disciples, “Let us cross to the other side of the lake.” So He got into a boat with them and set out.

23Pu vavile valei munyanja vinghenda, u Yeisu akhanghonelela itulu pu umbelo umbaha nghukha tenghula ukhukulunghuta, pu uvwato vwavo vukhanja ukhudeingha amanghasi pa vakhavmumbupala uvwakhufwa.As they sailed, He fell asleep, and a windstorm came down on the lake, so that the boat was being swamped, and they were in great danger.

24Pu avakongi vamwene vakhaluta upwanghonile u Yisu vakhasisimula, vakhata, “Nkuludeva Nkuludeva! Tuleipakhufwa!” Pu akhasisimukha akhanghutaneila umbelo unghunyakulunghuto, pu amanghasi anghambelo nu kulunghuto nghakhalitama vuvule.The disciples went and woke Him, saying, “Master, Master, we are perishing!” Then Jesus got up and rebuked the wind and the raging waters, and they subsided, and all was calm.

25Pu akhavavula akhata, “Ulwelideikho lweinyo luleindakhu?” Vakhadwada nukhudengha vavo kheila munu aleinkudeingha nukhuta, “Uyu vei munu, mukhi pakhuva umbelo nghwa manghasi anghanyakulunghuto nghikhupuleikha nukhumweideikha?”“Where is your faith?” He asked. Frightened and amazed, they asked one another, “Who is this? He commands even the winds and the water, and they obey Him!”

26Puvakha`nchifikhe khuvunchenge uvwa kheilunga eikhya Nghelaseni uvanchenge uvulei khulavafu ulwakhusana mu Nghalilaya.Then they sailed to the region of the Gerasenes, across the lake from Galilee.

27Avile ahumile muvwato pukhava mukheilunga eikhya mwambo khunyanja pu akhanghanila nu munu umo uvambunghenge vula, pu umana uyu ale namakha nghamepo imbivi. Pa finghono fingi akhava sifwala eimyenda, hange saleikhuta munyumba, aleikhutama khuvunghuli vwa vanu avafwile.When Jesus stepped ashore, He was met by a demon-possessed man from the town. For a long time this man had not worn clothing or lived in a house, but he stayed in the tombs.

28Avile ambwene u Yisu pu akhakutafincho puakhanghwa pasi mbulungholo khwa Yeisu, akhakuta nukhyovela fincho aleikhuta, neivombile khinu kheikhi khulyuve, Yeisu vei mwana va Nguluve uvakhukyanya? Nikhukhudova, ulekhe ukhumbunga une”When the man saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before Him, shouting in a loud voice, “What do You want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You not to torture me!”

29Pu u Yeisu akhayeilangeila eimepo eimbivi akhata, humangha, ulwakhuva isikhunchoni umepo umbivi aleikhung'usania khyoni khyoni ukhwanukhwa. Pu avanine valeikhundolela nu khunkunga eiminyololo pwaleikhudumulania imepo imbivi nchilikhundongoncha impakha mundunkunghu mumakha ngha mepo ula.For Jesus had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. Many times it had seized him, and though he was bound with chains and shackles, he had broken the chains and been driven by the demon into solitary places.

30U Yeisu akhambuncha akhata, “Eiliyavwa lyakho veve veni?” Pu akhamula akhata, “Nene kheipungha” Ulwakhuva imepo imbivi nchunyingi nchingile mumwene.“What is your name?” Jesus asked. “Legion,” he replied, because many demons had gone into him.

31Pu imepo imbivi nchisikhupisima khwa Yeisu ukhuta siwo ulekhe ukhututangha munghunghenge.And the demons kept begging Jesus not to order them to go into the Abyss.

32Pu leino khyale epwo eikheipungha khya nghube eikhivaha kheikhalya eilinyasi pakhyamba. Puvakhaduva nu khusima ukhuta avatavulile vinghile munghube incho pu u Yeisu akhavatavula munghube incho.There on the hillside a large herd of pigs was feeding. So the demons begged Jesus to let them enter the pigs, and He gave them permission.

33Pu leino imepo imbivi nchikhala uma khumunu ula panchikhingeila mu nghube nchile, pu eikhipungha kheila pukheikhei landaveikha palunghenge kheikheitangha munyanja nchikhadwiveila.Then the demons came out of the man and went into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and was drowned.

34Avanu vala avadumangha einghube vavile vakheivwene eikheihumile ndavule puvakhava vanu vakhuluta nimbeilo nu khuvuleisya inongwa inchi mwoni mwoni khuvanu va mbunchenghe vwoni.When those tending the pigs saw what had happened, they ran off and reported this in the town and countryside.

35Avanu vuvapuleikhe inongwa ndenchi puvakhaluta khukheilolela vavo eikheihumila, puvakhincha khwa Yeisu vakhambona imbivi leino nchihumile pu umunu ula akhava ulunonghile. Akhava atamile pamalunde ngha Yeisu, puvakhadwada.So the people went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus and found the man whom the demons had left, sitting at Jesus’ feet, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.

36Pavala vavo valolile puvakhavavula inchihumila khumunu ula uveiakhanghatanchivwangha nu vulongonchi vwa mepo imbivi u aponile.Meanwhile, those who had seen it reported how the demon-possessed man had been healed.

37Avanu voni avakheihungha eikhya mu Nghelasini na mufilonga ifya ndukanchi pu khavona ukhuta u Yeisu ahenghanghe khuvene pakhuva vale nuvudwanchi uvuvaha. Pu akhingheila muvwato aleikhuvaya.Then all the people of the region of the Gerasenes asked Jesus to depart from them, because great fear had taken hold of them. So He got into the boat and started back.

38Umunu ula uvei imepo chahumile puakhasima khwa Yeisu akhata vahenghanghe njeila. Pu leino u Yeisu akhambula akhata alutanghe khukaya ya mwene akhata,The man whom the demons had left begged to go with Jesus. But He sent him away, saying,

39“Vuya khukaya yakho pu ukheisanghele nchila nchoni inchu u Yeisu akhuvombile.“Return home and describe how much God has done for you.” So the man went away and proclaimed all over the town how much Jesus had done for him.

40Pu U Yeisu avile, avuyile avanu eikheipungha vakhamwambeileila pakhuva voni valeikhunghuleila.When Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed Him, for they had all been waiting for Him.

41Pu akhavonakha nu munu umo uvu alilangivwanghwa vei. Yailo ale manyisi mbaha paninie navamanyisi munyumba ya khweisayeila. Yailo uyu avile afikhe pamalunde ngha Yeisu pwaeikhwaeibeilusya nukhusima ukhuta idova alute pakaya ya mwene,Just then a synagogue leader named Jairus came and fell at Jesus’ feet. He begged Him to come to his house,

42pakhuva alei nu mwaleive umo vuvule uludeingha unymiakha kheinchingo na ngheiveilei aleilamu fincho nduvyaleipakhufwa. Pu u Yeisu avile iluta eikheipungha khya vanu kheileikhu mbunghuteileila.because his only daughter, who was about twelve, was dying. As Jesus went with him, the crowds pressed around Him,

43Hange na Yudala umo uveiavenchangha khwimali ifinghono fyoni eimiakha kheinchingho neingheiveilei pu nakheikhyuma khyamwene amalile khuvanghanga alepwo pakhipungha kheila, pu asikhuli na yumo unghanga aveiayavile eilimali lyamwene, Pu udala ula akhafuyenye lukha pakhelipungaincluding a woman who had suffered from bleeding for twelve years. She had spent all her money on physicians, but no one was able to heal her.

44akhanchiva pasana nghwa Yeisu akhabasya mukheihundwa khya Yeisu khumalunde. Pu akhasekhe ndakhaleikhu eilimali lya mwene leikhadungha akhava aponile.She came up behind Jesus and touched the fringe of His cloak, and immediately her bleeding stopped.

45U Yeisu pu akhata, “Veeni uveianyabasinche?” Vooni vakhabela, pu u Peteli akhata, Nkuludeva, avanu avavakhuvunghuleilile nukhukhu kulungha.”“Who touched Me?” Jesus asked. But they all denied it. “Master,” said Peter, “the people are crowding and pressing against You.”

46Pu Yeisu leino akhata, “Umunu umo anyabasinche pakhuva neivwene ukhuta amakha nghavile mapepe nghasimuli ndyune.”But Jesus declared, “Someone touched Me, for I know that power has gone out from Me.”

47Pu udala ula avile avwene ilemwa ukhweimyesya eikhyu avombile, akhahengelela pa Yeisu khunu itetema pu akhanghwa pasi akhava munu uvei ikheilata inchipelile ukhumwabasya nukhupona eilimali paalapala.Then the woman, seeing that she could not escape notice, came trembling and fell down before Him. In the presence of all the people, she explained why she had touched Him and how she had immediately been healed.

48Pu leino u Yeisu akhata, “Eingh'ienja, ulwaideikho lwa kho lukhuponiche. Pu wei luteilanghe nulunonchehencho.”“Daughter,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you. Go in peace.”

49Pu avile iinchova ndavule, umunu umo akhincha ukhuma khu kya ya ula umbaha vanyumba ya kweisayeila, akhata, “Umwaleivo amalile ukhufwa. ulekhe ukhunghatancha umanyisi.”While He was still speaking, someone arrived from the house of the synagogue leader. “Your daughter is dead,” he told Jairus. “Do not bother the Teacher anymore.”

50Pu leino u Yeisu avile, apulikhe ndavuleakhamula akhata, “Ulekhe. Ukhudwada vweideikhevuvule navope ipokhivwa.”But Jesus overheard them and said to Jairus, “Do not be afraid; just believe, and she will be healed.”

51Pu leino avile afikhe pakaya nukhweingeila munyumba, pusantavuleile munu ukhwingeila paninie nu mwene, pu u Peteli, nu Yohani nu Yakobo, vise va ngh'eincha, nu vaninemwa veene.When He entered the house, He did not allow anyone to go in with Him except Peter, John, James, and the child’s father and mother.

52Pu avanu voni valeikhuleila nukhyovela savuli ya mwana ula uvyafwile, pu u Yeisu akhata, “Mulekhe ukhyovela, safwile, anghonelile vuvule.”Meanwhile, everyone was weeping and mourning for her. But Jesus said, “Stop weeping; she is not dead but asleep.”

53Pu leino avanu vakhang'ekha nukhubedana, pakhuva valumanyile ukhuta afwile.And they laughed at Him, knowing that she was dead.

54Pu umwene, u Yeisu akhamwibata ikhivokho u ngh'eincha ula, pu akheilanga neilimenyu eilivaha akhata, “Vei mwana, uve sisimukha”But Jesus took her by the hand and called out, “Child, get up!”

55pu u mwuyu nghwa mwene nghukhakilivukha, pu akhasisimukha useikhei nghulanghula, pu akhalangheila akhata vampe kheininie alye.Her spirit returned, and at once she got up. And He directed that she be given something to eat.

56Avahonchi vamwene vakhaswingha, pu leino akhavavula ululangeilo ukhuta valambu langha munu inongwa inchi.Her parents were astounded, but Jesus ordered them not to tell anyone what had happened.
