Mark 8
1 Niton mu a indi gbugbuwu ba hei ba wa bari. Yesu yo miri koma da tre bawu di
In those days the crowd once again became very large, and they had nothing to eat. Jesus called the disciples to Him and said,
2 “idi ba ba lo me suron, ba he mi me har vi tra ye da na hei ni kpe wa ba rhi na.”
“I have compassion for this crowd, because they have already been with Me three days and have nothing to eat.
3 Me ta turba duba he kpamba ni komba dana rina ba ki kobo ni ko bari ba ji ni gbugbamu.”
If I send them home hungry, they will faint along the way. For some of them have come a great distance.”
4 Mini koma ba mye “kife birdi nitsen-e ni wa, da ni mal ni di ba yi?”
His disciples replied, “Where in this desolate place could anyone find enough bread to feed all these people?”
5 A miba bi hei ni gble bredi ibve wa miye ba “a hi bredi bren ba bi he niwu? uba hla a ndi tangban. Ba lla ni wu'u “tan gban”
“How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked. “Seven,” they replied.
6 A tre du gbugbu di ku ba son ni meme da ba bredi tangpa da bre da non mini ko ma du ba ga ni bawu u ba ka ga ni di ba.
And He instructed the crowd to sit down on the ground. Then He took the seven loaves, gave thanks and broke them, and gave them to His disciples to set before the people. And they distributed them to the crowd.
7 Ba hei ni lambe game time ni womba baya wa a bre Irji, da la yo mir koma da nuba duba nu ndi ba du ba tan.
They also had a few small fish, and Jesus blessed them and ordered that these be set before them as well.
8 Da ba ta ba wrji da vu imbru ma sisen tangpebi rigarma.
The people ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.
9 Indi ba bakai dubu iziya. Ba ya ki a yo ba ninko duba hi kpamba.
And about four thousand men were present. As soon as Jesus had dismissed the crowd,
10 A ti-gbla ri ni jirgima baba mininkoma da ri nklan Dalmanuta.
He got into the boat with His disciples and went to the district of Dalmanutha.
11 Bi mrlian ndi ba ba ye da faragbi sur ni wu'u. Ba son ba to alama wa rju ni shullu, ba son ba tser u ton.
Then the Pharisees came and began to argue with Jesus, testing Him by demanding from Him a sign from heaven.
12 A tan fuon ni mi suron da tre “a gye sa indi bi meyi ba son ba to alama na? Janji mi la yi wu idi bi meyi ba na to alama na”.
Jesus sighed deeply in His spirit and said, “Why does this generation demand a sign? Truly I tell you, no sign will be given to this generation.”
13 Wa kaba don dala ri ni jirgi da hi gar korima
And He left them, got back into the boat, and crossed to the other side.
14 Miri ko bi ti ndu ma ba kparisu da na ba vredi gri na. A don riri ni mi jrigia.
Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, except for one loaf they had with them in the boat.
15 A hla ni bawu, son ni wuri ti ta yo shi-shi na kpa risu ni yistin Farisawa na niwu Hirudus na”
“Watch out!” He cautioned them. “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of Herod.”
16 Mini koma bi tindu, ba kpaye ni kpamba da tre a he wa bredi na he na.
So they began to discuss with one another the fact that they had no bread.
17 Yesu to kpe wa ba si ri mire ni dir mba, da tre. A gye sa, bi ri mre ter bredi ni suron bi? har zizan bi na tuna? Bi na ganina? Isuron mbi ba k'ma di bwu mu?
Aware of their conversation, Jesus asked them, “Why are you debating about having no bread? Do you still not see or understand? Do you have such hard hearts?
18 Bi hei ni shi shi bi na to na? Bi hei ni ton bi na wo na? Bi na tuna na?
‘Having eyes, do you not see? And having ears, do you not hear?’ And do you not remember?
19 Ni wa mi zie bredi ton mba gah ni di dubu ton a bi vu kpu kpu bredi shu sisen bre?” Ba la wu di wlo don har”
When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many basketfuls of broken pieces did you collect?” “Twelve,” they answered.
20 Ni wa me zi bredi tankpan ni di dubu zi'a bi vu kpu kpu bredi ti sisen bre?” Ba hla u di “tangban”.
“And when I broke the seven loaves for the four thousand, how many basketfuls of broken pieces did you collect?” “Seven,” they said.
21 A mie ba, har ziza'a bi na gani na?”
Then He asked them, “Do you still not understand?”
22 Da ba ye ni Bethsaida. Idi ba ni ki ba grji di u fei ye da bre Yesu di du sa wo ni wu.
When they arrived at Bethsaida, some people brought a blind man and begged Jesus to touch him.
23 Yesu a vu indi wu fie'a niwo dakji wu hi ni mi gbu. D a' a junte sur niwu nishishi da sa wo mani wu, a mei, “wu to kpe?”
So He took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village. Then He spit on the man’s eyes and placed His hands on him. “Can you see anything?” He asked.
24 A zuya da tre, me to indi bi ya na kukro ba si zre.
The man looked up and said, “I can see the people, but they look like trees walking around.”
25 A la kawo ma sa niwu nishishi maki shishi ya ka bun to u zizan abi zan wumumla wa to ko ge tsartzar me.
Once again Jesus placed His hands on the man’s eyes, and when he opened them his sight was restored, and he could see everything clearly.
26 Yesu hla wu ziza'a wu he ni kome nu, na rizu ni mi gbu ga na.”
Jesus sent him home and said, “Do not go back into the village.”
27 Yesu ba mini koma bindu ma zu ni ikoyuka wu Naesarea Filippi. A me mir ma ba nikon, “Bi ya ndi ba, mie di me nha'an?”
Then Jesus and His disciples went on to the villages around Caesarea Philippi. On the way, He questioned His disciples: “Who do people say I am?”
28 Mini koma ba la niwu wu yohana wu Baptisma, 'U' bari ba tre wu Iliya bari batre wumba kan-kan wuri nimiyi anabawa.
They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, one of the prophets.”
29 A mie ba u biyi na bi tre me nha? Bitrus tre “Wu yi wu Kristi.”
“But what about you?” Jesus asked. “Who do you say I am?” Peter answered, “You are the Christ.”
30 Yesu mam ba du ba na hla ni dro na ni tumu na.
And Jesus warned them not to tell anyone about Him.
31 Da soma bla bawu di vre di ni sha ya ni kpe gbugbu 'U' ba kamba ni u idi bi ninko ni bi chu ni Priestoci, ni bi nha vuvu, ba wu'u, ivi tre ni ta ti ti tashem.
Then He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and that He must be killed and after three days rise again.
32 A hla terki tsrame. Naki Bitrus kma he ni kosan da tre da gbiton ni wu.
He spoke this message quite frankly, and Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him.
33 Yesu kma ya miniko ma ba, da tre Bitrus ni tu “Kma tsi dimu,” Kma hi ni ko gomu wu brji wunayoshishi me ni kpe u Baci na se kpe wondi wu idi”
But Jesus, turning and looking at His disciples, rebuked Peter and said, “Get behind Me, Satan! For you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men.”
34 A yo ndi baba mir koma ba ni buburi da tre ni bawu. Indi a ni iya da wume ka kparisu ni kpama da ba gieiye mu da hu me”
Then Jesus called the crowd to Him along with His disciples, and He told them, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me.
35 Du indi wa tre wa wu nikpa tuma ani qu, uwada kri ni suroma ma don demu ni tre Rji ani kpa tuma cuwo.
For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and for the gospel will save it.
36 A gye ni zo idi ni gbuglu yi wanda ia zan rai ma?
What does it profit a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?
37 A gye wa indi ni ser kpama da fe sur ma?
Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?
38 Indi wa klusha mu mba tre mu ni meme ugbugblu yi u la tre e iverindi ni klushama indan a ni ye ni dau kaka tima ba ba maleku ma bi ruhu tsatsra.
If anyone is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when He comes in His Father’s glory with the holy angels.”
