Mark 7
1 Farisawa ni mbur bi nha ba yerji urushalima ba ye gyenklan kagon Yesu
And the Pharisees and some of the scribes, coming from Jerusalem, are gathered together to him,
2 Nda to imrlikoma bari basi rli birli hamma ni ngla wo.
and seeing some of his disciples eat bread with defiled, that is, unwashed, hands,
3 Farisawa ni yahudawa wawu mba ba na rli birli na sai ba nglawo, don ahi alada mba.
(for the Pharisees and all the Jews, unless they wash their hands diligently, do not eat, holding what has been delivered by the ancients;
4 Inde farisawa ba ye rji cucu, bana rli birli na sai ba Sukpa; ni imbru kpi bari wa ba hua na ba ngla vuva nho uri kongo ni kpi ndu la wawu.
and [on coming] from the market-place, unless they are washed, they do not eat; and there are many other things which they have received to hold, the washing of cups and vessels, and brazen utensils, and couches),
5 Farisawa ni bi nha mba mye Yesu “Ahi ngyesa imrli ko me mba na Ziren ni nkon u bi nikon amma di ni rli birli ni worji?”
then the Pharisees and the scribes ask him, Why do thy disciples not walk according to what has been delivered by the ancients, but eat the bread with defiled hands?
6 Ama a ua ni bawu, “Ishaya tre tsar ni tu mbi bi gyru ndi. Ba nha din, Ndi biyi ba hume ni vre nyu amma isuron he gbagbanwu ni me.
But he answering said to them, Well did Esaias prophesy concerning you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honour me with their lips, but their heart is far away from me.
7 Ba wu me u ce, nda ni tsuro ikpi bi u ndi wa ahi u mba.
But in vain do they worship me, teaching [as their] teachings commandments of men.
8 Bi ka doka rji don di nji u di mu gbangban me.
[For], leaving the commandment of God, ye hold what is delivered by men [to keep] — washings of vessels and cups, and many other such like things ye do.
9 A la wa bawu, A bi yiwu wa bi ka doka Rji don ndu yi nji ala'ada u mbi.
And he said to them, Well do ye set aside the commandment of God, that ye may observe what is delivered by yourselves [to keep].
10 Musa a tre, 'Wo tre tieme ni yime', u iwa a tre meme ni tiema ko yima, gbigbi ani qu'. “Amma bi hla, 'Indiwa a hla ni tiema ko yima
For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, he who speaks ill of father or mother, let him surely die.
11 Izo ko birime wa una kpa ni me a hi Corban “(wa wu tre, nno ni Rji)
But ye say, If a man say to his father or his mother, [It is] corban (that is, gift), whatsoever thou mightest have profit from me by...
12 Una la ny'me ni wu ndu tie kpie ni tiema ko iyi ma na.
And ye no longer suffer him to do anything for his father or his mother;
13 Bi kpa tre Rji ni tie meme ni al'ada mbi wa bi ndi nji wu ngbangban me. Ni gbugbu kpie wa bi muba wa bi tie'a.
making void the word of God by your traditional teaching which ye have delivered; and many such like things ye do.
14 A yo kpentren ndi ba ngarli nda tre wo me wawu mbi wu ndi to.
And having called again the crowd, he said to them, Hear me, all [of you], and understand:
15 Ikpie ri u kora na he na wa ani ba ndi tie meme”. A hi kpie wa a rju rji ni mi ndi, ikiyi ni kpa ndi tie meme”
There is nothing from outside a man entering into him which can defile him; but the things which go out from him, those it is which defile the man.
16 Indi wa a he ntlon wo'a ka wo.
If any one have ears to hear, let him hear.
17 To, Yesu a ka kpentre ndi ba don nda ri mikoh, mrli ko ma ba mye itre misali.
And when he went indoors from the crowd, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.
18 Yesu tre bi yi me itu mbi rli he bwu? Bi na to ndi ko ngyeri wa a ri ni ndi rji kora an a kpau tie meme,
And he says to them, Are ye also thus unintelligent? Do ye not perceive that all that is outside entering into the man cannot defile him,
19 don ana he nkon u ri ni suron ma na, amma ani hi mi nne ma nda rju hlega hi tra u hi mha?” Nitreyi Yesu a d'bu birli ba bi wawu.
because it does not enter into his heart but into his belly, and goes out into the draught, purging all meats?
20 A tre, “Ahi kpie wa rju rji ni mi ndi mba ni kpau tie meme.
And he said, That which goes forth out of the man, that defiles the man.
21 Don rji ni mi ndi, rju ni mi suron ba' meme mre: gru tangban ni ndi, iy'bi, wundi,
For from within, out of the heart of men, go forth evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
22 ikan, ingu, meme dri, gyru ndi, bison biye, bi shishi meme, bi kpa ndi tie meme, nzutu, bi mrlian ndi.
thefts, covetousness, wickednesses, deceit, licentiousness, a wicked eye, injurious language, haughtiness, folly;
23 Biyi wawu mba wu ba meme wa ba rji ni mi, bi ki ba kpa ndi tie meme
all these wicked things go forth from within and defile the man.
24 A wlunde ni ki nda hi kpama ni iklan u Taya ni sidon. Niki a ri koh nda na son ndu ba to wrji wa a he'a na, amma ana ya' nda ri kpama ni ndi na.
And he rose up and went away thence into the borders of Tyre and Sidon; and having entered into a house he would not have any one know [it], and he could not be hid.
25 Amma ni wo a he, iwa ri wa kpura vren wa ma a he ni brji a ye nda nda ka ku joku niwu za.
But immediately a woman, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, having heard of him, came and fell at his feet
26 To, iwa ana ndi u Helleni, u l'me Surofinishan. A bre wu to ju brjia rju ni vrenwa ma.
(and the woman was a Greek, Syrophenician by race), and asked him that he would cast the demon out of her daughter.
27 A wa wu, ndu ba guci nno mrli rli. Ana he tu nkon na, ndu ba ban birli u mrli tayo yawhu na.”
But [Jesus] said to her, Suffer the children to be first filled; for it is not right to take the children's bread and cast it to the dogs.
28 Amma iwa kasa wu nda hla” Njanji, Baci, e yawhu wa ba kru za tebru'a barli bu mbru (rjurju) u mrli ba.
But she answered and says to him, Yea, Lord; for even the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.
29 A hla ni wa, ni tu kpie wa u tre, u ka hi. Ibrji a rju ni kpa vrenwa me ye'.
And he said to her, Because of this word, go thy way, the demon is gone out of thy daughter.
30 A k'ma hi koh ma nda ka to vrenwa kru ni tu kru u ibrji rliga rju ni kpa vrenwa ye”
And having gone away to her house she found the demon gone out, and her daughter lying on the bed.
31 A la rju ni nklan u Taya, nda hi ni sidon ni teka halili rji hi ni inklan u Dikafolis.
And again having left the borders of Tyre and Sidon, he came to the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis.
32 Ba nji ndi ri ye wu wa ana mangbi nda ta to tre na, nda bre wu sawo wu.
And they bring to him a deaf [man] who could not speak right, and they beseech him that he might lay his hand on him.
33 A nji'u hi kosan ni bubu wa ndi bana he na, a sur mri wo ni mi ton ma nda ti ntan ka kpre l'me ma.
And having taken him away from the crowd apart, he put his fingers to his ears; and having spit, he touched his tongue;
34 A nzu ya shulu, nda cu vrli, nda wa wu, “Iffatha” wa ahi “Bwu!”
and looking up to heaven he groaned, and says to him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.
35 Hari itton ba, baka bwu, u l'me ma wa ana llo ngbangban, ka si nda tsi ni tre didi me.
And immediately his ears were opened, and the band of his tongue was loosed and he spoke right.
36 Yesu m'ha ba ndu bana wa dio na. Amma to a m'ha ba ndu ba na hla dio na, wa katie na a con ba ndu ba d'bu ni ndi.
And he charged them that they should speak to no one [of it]. But so much the more he charged them, so much the more abundantly they proclaimed it;
37 Ba tie sisri kpukpo me, nda tre, “A tie kpi ba wawu-u didi me.
and they were astonished above measure, saying, He does all things well; he makes both the deaf to hear, and the speechless to speak.
