Kupeza Choonadi

5:1Ndipo anawoloka nyanja napita ku dera la Gerasa. 2Yesu atatuluka mʼbwato, munthu amene anali ndi mzimu woyipa anachoka ku manda ndi kukumana naye. 3Munthuyu amakhala ku manda, ndipo panalibe amene akanatha kumumanganso ngakhale ndi unyolo. 4Pakuti nthawi zambiri akamumanga manja ndi miyendo amadula maunyolo ndi kudula zitsulo zimene zinali mʼmapazi ake. Panalibe amene anali ndi mphamvu yoti ndi kumugonjetsa. 5Usana ndi usiku ankakhala ku manda ndi kumapiri, akulira ndi kudzicheka ndi miyala.

6Ataona Yesu ali patali, anathamanga nagwa pa mawondo ake pamaso pake. 7Iye anafuwula kwambiri nati, “Mukufuna muchite nane chiyani, Yesu Mwana wa Mulungu Wammwambamwamba? Lumbirani kwa Mulungu kuti simundizunza!” 8Pakuti Yesu anati kwa iye, “Tuluka mwa munthuyu, iwe mzimu woyipa!”

9Ndipo Yesu anamufunsa iye, “Dzina lako ndani?”

Iye anayankha kuti, “Dzina langa ndine Legiyo, pakuti tilipo ambiri.” 10Ndipo anamupempha Yesu mobwerezabwereza kuti asazitulutse mʼderalo.

11Gulu lalikulu la nkhumba limadya mʼmbali mwa phiri limene linali pafupi. 12Ziwandazo zinapempha Yesu kuti, “Titumizeni pakati pa nkhumbazo; ndipo mutilole tilowe mwa izo.” 13Iye anazipatsa chilolezo, ndipo mizimu yoyipayo inatuluka ndi kukalowa mu nkhumbazo. Gulu la nkhumba, zokwana pafupifupi 2,000 zinathamanga kutsetserekera ku nyanja ndipo zinamira.

14Omwe amaweta nkhumbazo anathawa ndi kukawuza anthu za izi mu mzinda ndi ku madera a ku midzi, ndipo anthu anapita kukaona zomwe zinachitika. 15Atafika kwa Yesu, anaona munthu amene anagwidwa ndi ziwanda zambiri uja atakhala pansi pomwepo, atavala, ndipo ali bwinobwino. Iwo anachita mantha. 16Amene anaona zimenezi anawuza anthu zomwe zinachitika kwa munthu wogwidwa ndi ziwandayo ndipo anawawuzanso za nkhumbazo. 17Ndipo anthu anayamba kumupempha Yesu kuti achoke mʼdera lawo.

18Yesu akulowa mʼbwato, munthu amene anagwidwa ndi ziwanda uja anamupempha kuti apite nawo. 19Yesu sanamulole, koma anati, “Pita kwanu ku banja lako ndipo ukawawuze zimene Ambuye wakuchitira, ndi chifundo chimene wakuchitira.” 20Pomwepo munthuyo anapita nayamba kuwuza anthu a ku Dekapoli zinthu zimene Yesu anamuchitira. Ndipo anthu onse anadabwa.
