Mark 7
1 Farisawa ni mbur bi nha ba yerji urushalima ba ye gyenklan kagon Yesu
Now the Pharisees, and some scribes who came from Jerusalem, resorted to Jesus.
2 Nda to imrlikoma bari basi rli birli hamma ni ngla wo.
And observing some of his disciples eating with impure hands, 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 indeed all the Jews who observed the tradition of the elders, eat not until they have have washed their hands by pouring a little water upon them:
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 if they be come from the market, by dipping them; and many other usages there are, which they have adopted, as immersions of cups and pots, and brazen vessels and beds: )
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 Scribes asked him, Whence comes it that your disciples observe not the tradition of the elders, but eat with unwashed 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.
He answering, said to them, O hypocrites! well do you suit the character, which Isaiah gave of you, when he said, This people honor me with their lips; but their heart is estranged from me.
7 Ba wu me u ce, nda ni tsuro ikpi bi u ndi wa ahi u mba.
In vain, however, they worship me, while they teach institutions merely human."
8 Bi ka doka rji don di nji u di mu gbangban me.
For laying aside the commandment of God, you retain the traditions of men, immersions of pots and cups, and many other similar practices.
9 A la wa bawu, A bi yiwu wa bi ka doka Rji don ndu yi nji ala'ada u mbi.
You judge well, continued he, in annulling the commandment of God, to make room for your traditions.
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 has said, "Honor your father and mother" and "Whosoever reviles father or mother, shall be punished with death."
11 Izo ko birime wa una kpa ni me a hi Corban “(wa wu tre, nno ni Rji)
But you maintain, if a man say to father or mother, "Be it corban (that is, devoted) whatever of mine shall profit you";
12 Una la ny'me ni wu ndu tie kpie ni tiema ko iyi ma na.
he must not thenceforth do anything for his father or 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.
thus invalidating the word of God, by the tradition which you have established. And in many other instances you act thus.
14 A yo kpentren ndi ba ngarli nda tre wo me wawu mbi wu ndi to.
Then having called the whole multitude, he said to them, Hearken to me all of you, and be instructed.
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 without, which entering into the man, can pollute him; but the things which proceed from within the man, are the things that pollute him.
16 Indi wa a he ntlon wo'a ka wo.
If any man has 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.
When he had withdrawn from the people into a house, his disciples asked him the meaning of that sentence.
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,
He answered, Are you also void of understanding? Do you not perceive, that whatsoever from without enters into the man, can not pollute 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 enters not into his heart, but into his stomach, whence all impurities in the victuals pass into the sink.
20 A tre, “Ahi kpie wa rju rji ni mi ndi mba ni kpau tie meme.
But, added he, that which proceeds out of the man, is what pollutes 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 the human heart proceed vicious machinations, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts,
22 ikan, ingu, meme dri, gyru ndi, bison biye, bi shishi meme, bi kpa ndi tie meme, nzutu, bi mrlian ndi.
insatiable desires, malevolence, fraud, immodesty, envy, calumny, arrogance, levity.
23 Biyi wawu mba wu ba meme wa ba rji ni mi, bi ki ba kpa ndi tie meme
All these evils issue from within, and pollute 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.
Then he arose, and went to the frontiers of Tyre and Sidon; and having entered a house, he desired that none might know of him; but he could not be concealed.
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.
For a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, hearing of him, came and threw herself at his feet,
26 To, iwa ana ndi u Helleni, u l'me Surofinishan. A bre wu to ju brjia rju ni vrenwa ma.
(the woman was a Greek, a native of Syrophenicia, ) and entreated 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.”
Jesus answered, Let the children first be satisfied; for it is not seemly to take the children bread, and throw 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.
She replied, True, Sir; yet 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'.
He said to her, For this answer go home; the demon is gone out of your daughter.
30 A k'ma hi koh ma nda ka to vrenwa kru ni tu kru u ibrji rliga rju ni kpa vrenwa ye”
Immediately she went home, and found her daughter lying upon the bed, and freed from the demon.
31 A la rju ni nklan u Taya, nda hi ni sidon ni teka halili rji hi ni inklan u Dikafolis.
Then leaving the borders of Tyre and Sidon, he returned to the sea of Galilee, through the precincts of Decapolis.
32 Ba nji ndi ri ye wu wa ana mangbi nda ta to tre na, nda bre wu sawo wu.
And they brought to him a deaf man, who had also an impediment in his speech, and entreated him to lay his hand upon 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.
Jesus having taken him aside from the crowd, spit upon his own fingers, and put them into the man's ears, and touched his tongue.
34 A nzu ya shulu, nda cu vrli, nda wa wu, “Iffatha” wa ahi “Bwu!”
Then looking up to heaven, and sighing, he said, 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.
Immediately his ears were opened, and his tongue loosed, and he spoke distinctly.
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.
He charged them to tell no person: but the more he charged them, the more they published it,
37 Ba tie sisri kpukpo me, nda tre, “A tie kpi ba wawu-u didi me.
saying with inexpressible amazement, He does everything well: he makes both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.
