Biblia Takatifu (Swahili): New Testament portions
1Then Jesus was led by the spirit into the desert, to be tempted by the devil.
1Kisha Roho alimwongoza Yesu mpaka jangwani ili ajaribiwe na Ibilisi.
2And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterwards he was hungry.
2Akafunga siku arubaini mchana na usiku, na mwishowe akaona njaa.
3And the tempter coming said to him: If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.
3Basi, mshawishi akamjia, akamwambia, “Ikiwa wewe ni Mwana wa Mungu, amuru mawe haya yawe mikate.”
4Who answered and said: It is written, Not in bread alone doth man live, but in every word that proceedeth from the mouth of God.
4Yesu akamjibu, “Imeandikwa katika Maandiko Matakatifu: Binadamu hataishi kwa mikate tu, ila kwa kila neno asemalo Mungu.”
5Then the devil took him up into the holy city, and set him upon the pinnacle of the temple,
5Kisha Ibilisi akamchukua mpaka Yerusalemu, mji mtakatifu, akamweka juu ya mnara wa hekalu,
6And said to him: If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down, for it is written: That he hath given his angels charge over thee, and in their hands shall they bear thee up, lest perhaps thou dash thy foot against a stone.
6akamwambia, “Ikiwa wewe ni Mwana wa Mungu, jitupe chini; maana imeandikwa: Mungu atawaamuru malaika wake kwa ajili yako; watakuchukua mikononi mwao, usije ukajikwaa kwenye jiwe.”
7Jesus said to him: It is written again: Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
7Yesu akamwambia, “Imeandikwa pia: Usimjaribu Bwana, Mungu wako.”
8Again the devil took him up into a very high mountain, and shewed him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them,
8Kisha Ibilisi akamchukua mpaka juu ya mlima mrefu, akamwonyesha falme zote za ulimwengu na fahari zake,
9And said to him: All these will I give thee, if falling down thou wilt adore me.
9akamwambia, “Hivi vyote nitakupa kama tu ukipiga magoti na kuniabudu.”
10Then Jesus saith to him: Begone, Satan: for it is written, The Lord thy God shalt thou adore, and him only shalt thou serve.
10Hapo, Yesu akamwambia, “Nenda zako Shetani! Imeandikwa: Utamwabudu Bwana Mungu wako na kumtumikia yeye peke yake.”
11Then the devil left him; and behold angels came and ministered to him.
11Basi, Ibilisi akamwacha, na malaika wakaja, wakamhudumia.
12And when Jesus had heard that John was delivered up, he retired into Galilee:
12Yesu aliposikia kwamba Yohane ametiwa gerezani alikwenda Galilaya.
13And leaving the city Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capharnaum on the sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim;
13Aliondoka Nazareti, akaenda Kafarnaumu, mji ulio kando ya bahari ya Genesareti, mpakani mwa wilaya za Zabuloni na Naftali, akakaa huko.
14That it might be fulfilled which was said by Isaias the prophet:
14Ndivyo lilivyotimia lile neno lililosemwa kwa njia ya nabii Isaya:
15Land of Zabulon and land of Nephthalim, the way of the sea beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles:
15“Nchi ya Zabuloni na nchi ya Naftali, kuelekea baharini ng'ambo ya mto Yordani, Galilaya nchi ya watu wa Mataifa!
16The people that sat in darkness, hath seen great light: and to them that sat in the region of the shadow of death, light is sprung up.
16Watu waliokaa gizani wameona mwanga mkubwa. Nao walioishi katika nchi ya giza na kivuli cha kifo, mwanga umewaangazia!”
17From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say: Do penance, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
17Tangu wakati huo Yesu alianza kuhubiri akisema, “Tubuni, maana ufalme wa mbinguni umekaribia!”
18And Jesus walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea (for they were fishers).
18Yesu alipokuwa anatembea kando ya ziwa Galilaya, aliwaona ndugu wawili wavuvi; Simoni (aitwae Petro) na Andrea, ndugu yake; walikuwa wakivua samaki kwa nyavu ziwani.
19And he saith to them: Come ye after me, and I will make you to be fishers of men.
19Basi, akawaambia, “Nifuateni, nami nitawafanya ninyi wavuvi wa watu.”
20And they immediately leaving their nets, followed him.
20Mara wakaziacha nyavu zao, wakamfuata.
21And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets: and he called them.
21Alipokwenda mbele kidogo, aliwaona ndugu wengine wawili: Yakobo na Yohane, wana wa Zebedayo. Hao walikuwa ndani ya mashua pamoja na baba yao Zebedayo, wakitengeneza nyavu zao. Basi Yesu akawaita,
22And they forthwith left their nets and father, and followed him.
22nao mara wakaiacha mashua pamoja na baba yao, wakamfuata.
23And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom: and healing all manner of sickness and every infirmity, among the people.
23Yesu alikuwa anakwenda kila mahali wilayani Galilaya, akifundisha katika masunagogi na kuhubiri Habari Njema juu ya ufalme wa Mungu. Aliponya kila namna ya maradhi na magonjwa waliyokuwa nayo watu.
24And his fame went throughout all Syria, and they presented to him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and such as were possessed by devils, and lunatics, and those that had palsy, and he cured them:
24Habari zake zikaenea katika mkoa wote wa Siria. Wagonjwa wote wenye maradhi ya kila namna na wale waliosumbuliwa na kila namna ya taabu: waliopagawa na pepo, wenye kifafa na watu waliokuwa wamelemaa, walipelekwa kwake; naye akawaponya wote.
25And much people followed him from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judea, and from beyond the Jordan.
25Makundi mengi ya watu kutoka Galilaya, Dekapoli, Yerusalemu, Yudea na ng'ambo ya mto Yordani, walimfuata.
