Mark 9
1 a hla ni ba wu ndi janji mi hlahni yiwu ba ri ni minbi bana to iqu rhi nda to ye iko irji ni gbengle ma na
“I tell you,” he added, “that some of those who are standing here will not know death until they have seen the kingdom of God come in power.”
2 da vi tane a kle yesu a vu Bitrus mba yakubu u Yohanna nda ngrji ba ka hon ni khikle gblu ri ni nkle ba hama ni ko ni doir ni ba niki ikpama a kma sraro
Six days later, Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John, and led them up a high mountain alone by themselves. There his appearance was transformed before their eyes,
3 e nklon ma a kma zan kinkla rais zan ibluch wandi ba tindu ni wu da chu itsro wandi a centu ni mi ikpi wu gla
and his clothes became whiter than any launderer in the whole world could bleach them.
4 ba kri toh Elijah mba Musa ni mi mba ba si tre ni yesu Bitrus lukri da
And Elijah appeared to them, in company with Moses; and they were talking with Jesus.
5 kpanyem ni yesu rabbi ani bi du ta khi ki niwayi wu ta kpanyem wu ka duta sro ibru itra niayi iri wu me iri wu Musa e iri wu Elijah
“Rabbi,” said Peter, interposing, “it is good to be here; let us make three tents, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”
6 shishi ma a fontsii nda du lu tre to ki
For he did not know what to say, because they were much afraid.
7 ikpa lu a lu kri kaba pyenpeme e ba lu wo lantre ni mi kpaa an di
Then a cloud came down and enveloped them; and from the cloud there came a voice – “This is my dearly loved son; listen to him.”
8 uwayi hi vren wu sron mu wo tre ma yi ba kma ya bana la to ndior na sai yesu
And suddenly, on looking around, they saw that there was now no one with them but Jesus alone.
9 ni andi ba kma si grjhi rjhi ni tu gblua a mhmba du ba na hla ni ndoir ikpi wandi ba to ni tu ngblua na sei vren ndi ta shimen ni qu
As they were going down the mountainside, Jesus cautioned them not to relate what they had seen to anyone, until after the Son of Man had risen from the dead.
10 ba kpa tre a grji sron da ki tre ndi tashen yi ni qu a gye?
They seized on these words and discussed with one another what this ‘rising from the dead’ meant.
11 ba lu mye ni dongye nikon bi nha vunvu ba tre ndi Elijahni guci ye
“How is it,” they asked Jesus, “that our teachers of the Law say that Elijah has to come first?”
12 a kma hla bawu andi elijah ni ye guci da ye mla kpi ti amain gye sa ba rhe ndi vren ndi ni guci ti ya kpukpome u ba kpa a tsiri
“Elijah does indeed come first,” answered Jesus, “and re-establish everything; and does not scripture speak, with regard to the Son of Man, of his undergoing much suffering and being utterly despised?
13 mi lha niyiwu Elijah a yeye u ndi ba thi ekpi wandi ba son ti niwua tsra ni kpi ani ba hla ni tuma
But I tell you that Elijah has come, and people have treated him just as they pleased, as scripture says of him.”
14 da ba ye zon tu ni nbru mri ko bi huzama ba ye to ndi gbugbuwu ba bi niko bi nha vuvu ba si sen nyu ni ba
When they came to the other disciples, they saw a great crowd around them, and some teachers of the Law arguing with them.
15 da ba to yesu ipentren di ba ghir nda tisutsu ye cie
But, as soon as they saw Jesus, all the people, in great astonishment, ran up and greeted him.
16 a mye mri ko ma bi huzama di bisi senyu qyemu ni ba?
“What are you arguing about with them?” Jesus asked.
17 indi ihii ni mi gbugbu ndi ba sa wu da tre ndi ndi wu tsoro mi nji vren mu ye ni wu a hei ni suron ibrji wandi ani zu bubu tre
“Teacher,” answered a man in the crowd, “I brought my son to see you, as he has a spirit in him that makes him mute;
18 a nita lu niwu a ni ban u whurtaga da du ta zran da fu nfom ni nyu da tan nyere du kma kru kpen me mi mye mri ko me do ba zu mcmebrji rju u ba ti wa kran
and, wherever it seizes him, it dashes him down; he foams at the mouth and grinds his teeth, and he is pining away. I asked your disciples to drive the spirit out, but they failed.”
19 a si tre ni bawu ndi kba bi hon kpanye ni son ni yi tsar ni tan? mi vu sron ni yi hi ni tanmu? njivren ye nimu
“Faithless generation!” exclaimed Jesus. “How long must I be with you? How long must I have patience with you? Bring the boy to me.”
20 ba nji vivren ye niwu ni tu yesu meme brji a kri tru ku kma vivren a rjoku da zran da ni kran nfo ni nyu
They brought him to Jesus; but no sooner did the boy see him than the spirit threw him into convulsions; and he fell on the ground, and rolled about, foaming at the mouth.
21 yesu a mye thima azi he toyi rji ni tan? ti ma a halawu ndi rhi ni tistea
“How long has he been like this?” Jesus asked the boy’s father.
22 a nita lu nivu ani ban wu taga ni lu ani bawu yo ni ma kama ani wuuu wuta ni ti kpe ni tu ma wuka ya ta ni lo suron ni sikpa
“From his childhood,” he answered. “It has often thrown him into fire and into water to put an end to his life; but, if you can possibly do anything, take pity on us, and help us!”
23 yesu a myee wuta ni to ti ko nge na zan gbenglen na ni indi wandi a kpanyema
“Why say ‘possibly’?” Jesus replied. “Everything is possible for one who has faith.”
24 hari iti vren a dbu da tre ndi mi kpanyme zo khanyme mu
The boy’s father immediately cried out, “I have faith; help my want of faith!”
25 da yesu a to ikpa ndi ba tsutsu si ye ni ba a kri nacho ni meme ibrji nda tre di wu brji manbi ba nkpram me nacho ni wu rhu ni kpa ma dina la kma ri na
But, when Jesus saw that a crowd was quickly collecting, he rebuked the foul spirit, “Deaf and dumb spirit, it is I who command you. Come out from him and never enter him again.”
26 a kpagro da ru do vivren joku ku kpin kpiri nda rhu ni kpama vivren a kru naa que u gra ndi ba tre di a qui
With a loud cry the spirit threw the boy into repeated convulsions, and then came out from him. The boy looked like a corpse, so that most of them said that he was dead.
27 aman yesu a zu wama hon u vivren a lu de kirkir
But Jesus took his hand, and lifted him; and he stood up.
28 da yesu a kmaye ni ko mri koma ba mye ni kosan angye zuta bubu zu rhu?
When Jesus had gone indoors, his disciples asked him privately, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?”
29 a lha ba wu ndi bibiyi ba na zu ba rhu megen na sai de ni bre irji
“A spirit of this kind,” he said, “can be driven out only by prayer.”
30 ba rhu niki nda zren zu ni Galilee ana son do ndi du ba toh wrji wandi ba hye na
Leaving that place, Jesus and his disciples went on their way through Galilee; but he did not wish anyone to know it,
31 a sira tsro mri ko bi hua da ila bawu ndi vivren ndi ni ku ni woh mri ndi ba wuu u ni vi u tra ani tashmem da lunde ngari
for he was instructing his disciples, and telling them – “The Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of his fellow men, and they will put him to death, but, when he has been put to death, he will rise again after three days.”
32 bana to tu tre a na siri zuba bubu myea
But the disciples did not understand his meaning and were afraid to question him.
33 mle bari ni capernaum da ba rhi niko a mye ba ndi bisiyatre ni tu gye niko?
They came to Capernaum. When Jesus had gone into the house, he asked them, “What were you discussing on the way?”
34 ba kma khi ni gbangbi ba siya sen nhu ni kpamba ni tu nha zan mbrumba
But they were silent; for on the way they had been arguing with one another which was the greatest.
35 a kuson da yo mri ko ma itso ba nda bha bawu ndi wa nison hye mu mlan ka kma tuma yo kogon da tindu ni mbru ba
Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, “If anyone wishes to be first, he must be last of all, and servant of all.”
36 a ban vivren tsitsa nda kau zi ni tsutsu mba nda baun nji ni ngban ma nda tre ndi
Then Jesus took a little child, and placed it in the middle of them. Taking it in his arms, he said to them,
37 ko nha wandi a kpa vivren tsitsa yi ni ndemu a kpa me ndi wa a kpa me ana me megen a kpa na a kpa ndi wa ton me
“Anyone who, for the sake of my name, welcomes even a little child like this is welcoming me, and anyone who welcomes me is welcoming not me, but him who sent me as his messenger.”
38 Yohana hla ni wu di tico u khi to ndi rhi si zu brji ni rhu ni kpa ndi ni ndeme khi zuu ndi a ana huta na
“Teacher,” said John, “we saw a man driving out demons by using your name, and we tried to prevent him, because he did not follow us.”
39 yesu asa niwu da tre ndi na zuu na ndi wandi a ni ti khikle kpe ni ndemu ana kman tre kpe meme ni tu muna
“None of you must prevent the man,” answered Jesus, “for no one will use my name in working a miracle, and yet find it easy to speak evil of me.
40 ndi wandi ana komani ta na a wubu
He who is not against us is for us.
41 ko nha wandi anuyi kofima u so ni ndemu nitu bi hye wu kristi mi lha tre janji ni yiwu ana hon kpa lidima na
If anyone gives you a cup of water because you belong to Christ, I tell you, he will assuredly not lose his reward.
42 indi wandi a do iri tsitsa biyi biwandi ba kpa nyme ni me ba kubuza ani zan do ba nkpi tita glo ni toh ma nda tru yo ni lon ma
“And, if anyone puts temptation in the way of one of these little ones who believe in me, it would be far better for him if he had been thrown into the sea with a great millstone around his neck.
43 e wome nita do kbuza ha taga ani zan wuka ri ni ko rji ni kpurhuwo ni do riko lu wandi ana kle na ni wome bambawu (Geenna g1067)
If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It would be better for you to enter life maimed, than to have both your hands and go into Gehenna, into the fire that cannot be put out. (Geenna g1067)
44 chiche vunvu mumla bi bana hye nitre aya 44 hi ni 46 na bubu wandi intso bi andi ba he nike bana kwu na e lu na ybe na
45 iza me nita du kbu za han ihu ani bi zandu ri ni ko irji hama ni za ni du he ni za me hamba e baka truyo ni mi lu (Geenna g1067)
If your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It would be better for you to enter life lame, than to have both your feet and be thrown into Gehenna. (Geenna g1067)
46 chiche vunvu bi sen wa ba bizen bana he ni nha 44 mba 46 na wa ntson mba bana kwuna e bana ybi lu ma na
47 shishi me nita du kbu 39 chuu rhu ani bi zan wuke ri ni ko irji ni shishi ri ni du hye ni shishi ha ni do ba truu yo ni lu (Geenna g1067)
If your eye causes you to sin, tear it out. It would be better for you to enter the kingdom of God with only one eye, than to have both eyes and be thrown into Gehenna, (Geenna g1067)
48 wandi ba tson niki bana kwu na ilua na ybi na
where their worm does not die, and the fire is not put out.
49 ba hii ko nha ni ma wu ba gon toni ma
For it is by fire that everyone will be salted.
50 ima bi anita chu ro ma ru wu kmaahi ro ngari? he nii ro ma ni kpambi ni du sisuron hei ni minbi
Salt is good, but, if the salt should lose its saltiness, what will you use to season it? You must have salt in yourselves, and live at peace with one another.”
