Luke 4 (ZIN) · Opened

1Yeézu yaáluga aho aha munóna gwa Yorodáani ayizwíile Omwooyo Mutakatíifu. Akeebeembelelwa no Omwooyo kuhika omu nsi yo obwoóma,Then Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,

2yaámala ebilo makúmi aána, akaba naaleengesibwa ni Isitáani. No omu buchilo obwo, talaliile echiintu choóna chóona. Obuchilo káyaamazile ebilo ebyo, enzala ekaba neemuluma.where for forty days He was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and when they had ended, He was hungry.

3Niho elyo Isitáani kumugaambila liti, “Koólaaba íiwe oli Mutábani wa Múungu, lilagile ibáale eli lihiinduke kuba omukaate.”The devil said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread.”

4Yeézu yaáligalulila aáti, “Omu Maandiko Amatakatíifu chaandikilwe chíti, ‘Omuuntu tiyaákuhicha kutuungwa ebyookulya byoónka.’”But Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone.’”

5Kalyaabalíile, Isitáani elyo lyaámutwáala Yeézu ahaantu hali olugulu bwooli, lyaámwoóleka obukáma bwóona bwe éensi ni ikuzo lyaámo ha káanya ako nyini.Then the devil led Him up to a high place and showed Him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world.

6Lyaámugaambila elyo Isitáani, “Obutégeki bwa byóona ebi, naakaákuha, hamo no obugéega bwaámo. Ha kuba byóona ebi, níinye óogwo naáhéelwe, na káandi naakaámuha omuuntu weéna wéena óogwo ndikweenda.“I will give You authority over all these kingdoms and all their glory,” he said. “For it has been relinquished to me, and I can give it to anyone I wish.

7Ha bwéecho, koólaandamya, niinkuha byóona ebyo.”So if You worship me, it will all be Yours.”

8Yeézu yaálisubiza, “Chaandikilwe chíti, ‘Omulámye Omukáma Múungu waawe, omugomookele weényini weénka.’”But Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve Him only.’”

9Kalyaabalíile Isitáani lyaámutwáala Yeézu Yeruzaléemu, lyaámweemeeleza aha luswi olula bwooli oluli aha nzu ya Múungu, lyaámugaambila, “Koólaaba íiwe oli Mutábani wa Múungu, oyenaguze ahaansi kuluga aha,Then the devil led Him to Jerusalem and set Him on the pinnacle of the temple. “If You are the Son of God,” he said, “throw Yourself down from here.

10habwo kuba chaandikilwe, ‘Múungu naalagíla bamaléeka boómwe, babone kukweémanya.’For it is written: ‘He will command His angels concerning You to guard You carefully,

11Na káandi, ‘Nibakusutula, amagulu gaawe oteéza okeékuumpa ahi ibáale.’”and they will lift You up in their hands, so that You will not strike Your foot against a stone.’”

12Yeézu yaálisubiza, “Chaandikilwe chíti, ‘Otamuleengesa Omukáma Múungu waawe.’”But Jesus answered, “It also says, ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’”

13Obuchilo Isitáani kályaabeele lyaámazile kumuleengesa Yeézu, lyaámuleka kuhicha libone omwáanya ogúundi, gwo kumuleengesa.When the devil had finished every temptation, he left Him until an opportune time.

14Káyaabaliile, Yeézu yaásuba owáabo Galiláaya, akaba ayina obuhicha bwo Omwooyo Mutakatíifu. Ne empoláze, zikasaámbaala bwooli omu nsi ezo yóona.Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and the news about Him spread throughout the surrounding region.

15Yaázeenda naayegesa abaantu omu masomelo gáabo. Na bóona, baaba nibamukúza.He taught in their synagogues and was glorified by everyone.

16Káyaabaliile, yaásuba omúka Nazaréeti, omu muzihwa óogwo yaalezilwe. Na aha chilo che Endaálikizo, nka nikwo yaabele amanyiile, akataaha omu isomelo, yeémuka, yaáyemeelela abone kusoma echigaambo cha Múungu.Then Jesus came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. As was His custom, He entered the synagogue on the Sabbath. And when He stood up to read,

17Akahaabwa echitabu cho omubáasi Isaya, yaáchifuúndula, yaáloondela ahaándikilwe,the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him. Unrolling it, He found the place where it was written:

18“Omwooyo gwo Omukáma Múungu, guli hamo neenye, habwo kuba, antoólize kubamanyisa abahabi Empola Nzima. Yaánsiíndika mbone kubamanyisa embóhe, kukomoololwa kwáabo, no kubamanyisa abahume, kubona kuhweeza káandi, na áabo abalikwaágalazibwa, mbachuúngule.“The Spirit of the Lord is on Me, because He has anointed Me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent Me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to release the oppressed,

19Mbone kuboólekeelela abaantu, omwáaka óogwo Omukáma Múungu alaáyoleka engoonzi zoómwe.”to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”

20Káyaamazile kusoma ebigaambo ebyo, Yeézu yaáfuundikila echitabu, yaámusubiza omuheéleza, mále yeékala. Na abaantu bóona áabo abaabeele bali omu isomelo, bakaba nibamutukuliza ha kumukómela améeso.Then He rolled up the scroll, returned it to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fixed on Him,

21Niho yaábaanza kubagaambila, “Echaandiko éecho mwaáhulila, leélo ezi chaáhikiilizwa omu méeso géenyu.”and He began by saying, “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”

22Abaantu bóona baásobelwa bwooli ha bigaambo byoómwe bye embabazi ebyaálugile omu kanwa koómwe, nábo baámugaamba kuzima. Baábaanza kweébuuza, “Ngási, ogu tíwe mutábani wa Yozéfu?”All spoke well of Him and marveled at the gracious words that came from His lips. “Isn’t this the son of Joseph?” they asked.

23Yeézu yaábagaambila, “Tihéena mwaaga nimuungaambile omugani ogu, ‘Íiwe omulaguzi, oyechíze íiwe nyini. Ensoonga, góona áago tuhuliile áago okozile omu muzihwa gwa Kaperinaumu, ogakole na aha omu muzihwa gwéetu!’ ”Jesus said to them, “Surely you will quote this proverb to Me: ‘Physician, heal yourself! Do here in Your hometown what we have heard that You did in Capernaum.’”

24Yeézu yaágaamba, “Mazima butúnu niimbagaambila, taliho omubáasi ayikilizwa omu muzihwa gwoómwe.Then He added, “Truly I tell you, no prophet is accepted in his hometown.

25“Ha buchilo bwa Eliya, telagwiile enzula emyáaka isatu na améezi mukáaga, kuhicha enzala mpaango yaáteela éensi yóona ya Iziraeli. Na mumanye kuzima nkokwo, bakaba baliho abakázi béenzi abakaambwiile omu nsi, omu buchilo óobwo.But I tell you truthfully that there were many widows in Israel in the time of Elijah, when the sky was shut for three and a half years and great famine swept over all the land.

26Hamo ne ebyo, Eliya talasiindikilwe hali oómo wáabo. Náho akasiíndikwa ha mukázi oómo akaambwiile wo omuli Zarefáati, omu nsi ya Sidóoni, ahéelu ya Iziraeli!Yet Elijah was not sent to any of them, but to the widow of Zarephath in Sidon.

27“No omu buchilo bwo omubáasi Elísha bityo, bakaba baliho ababéembe béenzi omu nsi ya Iziraeli. Hamo ne ebyo, taliho oómo wáabo óogwo yaáyelizwe. Akachiza Naamani weénka, omuuntu kuluga éensi ya Siíria!”And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet. Yet not one of them was cleansed—only Naaman the Syrian.”

28Abo bóona áabo abaabeele bakobile omu isomelo elyo, obuchilo kábaahuliile ago magaambo ga Yeézu, baázila echihulumuko bwooli.On hearing this, all the people in the synagogue were enraged.

29Ahonyini baáyemeelela bwaangu aha chiniga, baázeenda nibamusiindika. Baámusohoza ahéelu yo omuzihwa kuhika aha ngolomoko ndeehi yi ibaanga elyoombekilwého aha lugulu áaho iboma lyáabo, babone kumunáguza ahaansi.They got up, drove Him out of the town, and led Him to the brow of the hill on which the town was built, in order to throw Him over the cliff.

30Náho, yaáhiingula ahagáti ye echipípi cha abaantu abo, yaázeenda lwoómwe.But Jesus passed through the crowd and went on His way.

31Káyaabaliile, Yeézu yaalugáho yaázeenda omu iboma lya Kaperinaumu, omu nsi ya Galiláaya. Echilo che Endaálikizo, akataaha omu isomelo, yaábaanza kweégesa abaantu.Then He went down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee, and on the Sabbath He began to teach the people.

32Ebyeégeso byoómwe, byaábasobela bwooli, habwo kuba bikaba biina obuzizi.They were astonished at His teaching, because His message had authority.

33No omu isomelo elyo, akaba alimo omuuntu oómo ayaabeele akwaásilwe ni izimu. Izimu elyo lyaáchula no kuhamuka ahi iláka, ha kugaamba,In the synagogue there was a man possessed by the spirit of an unclean demon. He cried out in a loud voice,

34“Íiwe Yeézu Omunyanazaréeti, tukatuulanwa chi íiwe neechwe ka nootuloónda? Weeza kutusiingaalicha? Niinkumanya íiwe, nkokwo íiwe níiwe Omutakatíifu ayaatooziibwe na Múungu!”“Ha! What do You want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are—the Holy One of God!”

35Yeézu akalikáama izimu élyo ha kugaamba, “Buúmba akanwa kaawe! Omulugého ogu muuntu!” Ahonyini, izimu elyo lyaámugwiisa ahaansi ogwo muuntu, omu méeso ga abaantu abo bóona. Mále lyaamulugaho obutamuhutáaza.But Jesus rebuked the demon. “Be silent!” He said. “Come out of him!” At this, the demon threw the man down before them all and came out without harming him.

36Abaantu bóona, baásobelwa bwooli, beébuuza, “Ni magaambo chi aga? Léeba amazimu, omuuntu ogu yaágazema ha buzizi na amagala nkokwo galugeho aha baantu, ahonyini nigalugaho!”All the people were overcome with amazement and asked one another, “What is this message? With authority and power He commands the unclean spirits, and they come out!”

37Nikwo, empola za Yeézu ziba zaásaambaala bwooli omu nsi ezo yóona.And the news about Jesus spread throughout the surrounding region.

38Yeézu akalugamo omu isomelo elyo, yaátaaha omu nzu ya Simoni. Omwo, nyinazaala wa Simoni akaba ayina omuswiiza muháango. Baámusaba Yeézu nkokwo amuchize.After Jesus had left the synagogue, He went to the home of Simon, whose mother-in-law was suffering from a high fever. So they appealed to Jesus on her behalf,

39Niho kweémeelela héehi náze, yaágukaama omuswiiza. Ahonyini omuswiiza gwaamulugaho. Niho nyinazaala ogwo, yeemuka ahonyini, yaábaanza kubatóna ebyookulya.and He stood over her and rebuked the fever, and it left her. And she got up at once and began to serve them.

40No obuchilo izóoba kályaagwiilemo, echilo che Endaálikizo nichihwa, abaantu baámuleétela Yeézu abalwéele báabo bóona aba amalwéele gachiléene. Yeézu akateelaho buli oómo emikono yoómwe, yaábachíza.At sunset, all who were ill with various diseases were brought to Jesus, and laying His hands on each one, He healed them.

41Hamo ne ebyo, Yeézu yaábiinga amazimu omu baantu béenzi, gaátéela empámo omu kugaamba, “Íiwe oli Mutábani wa Múungu!” Habwo kuba amazimu áago gakaba nigamumanya nkokwo Yeézu niwe Masihi, yaágakaama no kugaángila gatagaámba gaamba káandi.Demons also came out of many people, shouting, “You are the Son of God!” But He rebuked the demons and would not allow them to speak, because they knew He was the Christ.

42Nyeéncha eémo yaaho kábwaachíile, Yeézu akalugaho aho, yaázeenda ahaantu áaho hakaba hatéena abaantu. Echipípi cha abaantu, baaba nibamuloondela no obuchilo baamubweéne, baáyeenda kumwaángila, kuba atabaleka.At daybreak, Jesus went out to a solitary place, and the crowds were looking for Him. They came to Him and tried to keep Him from leaving.

43Náho, Yeézu yaábagaambila, “Ni lwaampaka nzeénde káandi omu mizihwa ezíindi, mbone kubamanyisa Empola Nzima yo obukáma bwa Múungu. Habwo kuba, nkatumwa habwe ensoonga ezo nyini.”But Jesus told them, “I must preach the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns as well, because that is why I was sent.”

44Niho, Yeézu yaázeendelela kweégesa abaantu omu masomelo gáabo omu nsi ya Yudea.And He continued to preach in the synagogues of Judea.
