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 multitude being very large and not having anything to eat, Jesus called His disciples and said to them:
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 on the multitude, because they have stayed with me three days now 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 away hungry to their homes, they will give out on the way, because some of them have come a long distance.”
4 Mini koma ba mye “kife birdi nitsen-e ni wa, da ni mal ni di ba yi?”
His disciples answered Him, “From what source could anyone satisfy these people with bread here in a wilderness?”
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”
He asked them, “How many loaves do you have?” And they said, “Seven.”
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.
So He told the crowd to sit down on the ground; then taking the seven loaves and giving thanks, He broke them and gave them to His disciples to set before the crowd, and they did.
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; so blessing them He said to distribute them as well.
8 Da ba ta ba wrji da vu imbru ma sisen tangpebi rigarma.
Well they ate and were filled; they even took up seven hampers of broken pieces that were left over.
9 Indi ba bakai dubu iziya. Ba ya ki a yo ba ninko duba hi kpamba.
Now those who had eaten were about four thousand; and He sent them away.
10 A ti-gbla ri ni jirgima baba mininkoma da ri nklan Dalmanuta.
Then He got right into the boat with His disciples and went to the region 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.
The Pharisees came out and began to argue with Him, requesting of Him a sign from heaven, by way of testing Him.
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”.
But He sighed deeply in His spirit and said: “Why does this generation seek a sign? I tell you emphatically, no sign shall be given to this generation!”
13 Wa kaba don dala ri ni jirgi da hi gar korima
Turning His back on them, He got back into the boat and went off 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.
(His disciples had forgotten to take bread; they did not have more than one loaf 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”
And He charged them, saying, “Watch out; beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod.”
16 Mini koma bi tindu, ba kpaye ni kpamba da tre a he wa bredi na he na.
So they started reasoning among themselves, saying, “It's because we have 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?
Being aware of it Jesus said to them: “Why are you reasoning because you have no bread? Do you still neither perceive nor understand? Do you still have hearts that have been hardened?
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 baskets full of pieces did you take up?” They say to Him, “Twelve.”
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 for the four thousand, how many hampers full of pieces did you take up?” And they said, “Seven.”
21 A mie ba, har ziza'a bi na gani na?”
So He said to them, “How is it that you still don't 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.
Then He came to Bethsaida; and they brought a blind man to Him and begged Him 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 spitting into his eyes and laying hands on him, He asked him if he saw anything.
24 A zuya da tre, me to indi bi ya na kukro ba si zre.
And looking up he said, “I do see men, only they look like walking trees.”
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.
Then He put His hands on his eyes again, and made him look up; and he was restored and saw everyone clearly.
26 Yesu hla wu ziza'a wu he ni kome nu, na rizu ni mi gbu ga na.”
Then He sent him away to his house, saying, “Neither go into the village nor tell anyone in 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 set out for the towns of Caesarea Philippi; and on the way He questioned His disciples, saying to them, “Who are people saying that 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.
So they answered, “John the Baptist; others Elijah; still others one of the prophets.”
29 A mie ba u biyi na bi tre me nha? Bitrus tre “Wu yi wu Kristi.”
He said to them, “And who do you say that I am?” So Peter answered and said to Him, “You are the Christ!”
30 Yesu mam ba du ba na hla ni dro na ni tumu na.
Then He charged them that they should tell no one 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.
He then began to teach them that the Son of the Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, chief priests and the scribes, and 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 said these things quite plainly. Then 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 He turned, looked at His disciples, and rebuked Peter, saying: “Get behind me, Satan! You have in mind men's values, not God's values.”
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”
He summoned the crowd, along with His disciples, and said to them: “Whoever wants to follow along behind me 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.
Because whoever may resolve to ‘save’ his life will waste it; but whoever may ‘waste’ his life for my sake and the Gospel's, he will save it.
36 A gye ni zo idi ni gbuglu yi wanda ia zan rai ma?
Well, what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits 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.
Yes, whoever is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of the Man will also be ashamed of Him whenever He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy Angels.”
