Marcos 7
1 Ang mga Pariseo nanagtigom kauban ni Jesus, kauban sa mga eskriba nga naggikan sa Jerusalem.
[One day some] Pharisees and some men who teach the [Jewish] laws gathered around Jesus. They had come from Jerusalem [to investigate him].
2 Ilang nakita nga ang uban sa iyang disipulo mikaon sa ilang tinapay uban ang kahugaw, kana mao, ang wala kapanghunaw, sa ilang mga kamot.
The Pharisees and all of the [other] Jews [strictly] observe the traditions that their ancestors [taught. For example, they refuse to] eat until they first wash their hands [with a special ritual], especially after they [return] from [buying things in] the marketplace. [They think that God will be angry with them if they do not do that, because some person or thing unacceptable to God might have touched] ([them/the things they bought]). There are many other such [traditions] that they accept and try to obey. Specifically, they wash [in a special way] their cups, pots, kettles, containers, and beds [in order that using these things will not make God reject them].
3 (Alang sa mga Pariseo ug sa tanang mga Judio, sila dili mangaon gawas kung sila makapanghunaw sa ilang mga kamot; sila nagagunit gihapon sa tulumanon sa ilang mga katigulangan.
4 Sa dihang ang mga Pariseo moabot gikan sa merkado, sila dili mangaon hangtod nga sila makapanghinlo sa ilang kaugalingon. Ug adunay lain pang sulondon nga ilang ginatuman bisan lisod, apil ang paghinlo sa mga kopa, mga tiil, bulawan nga sudlanan, ug bisan ang lingkoranan sa kan-anan.)
5 Ang mga Pariseo ug ang mga eskriba nangutana kang Jesus, “Nganong ang imong mga disipulo wala magkinabuhi sumala sa tolumanon sa mga katigulangnan, tungod kay sila nangaon sa ilang tinapay nga walay pagpanghunaw sa ilang mga kamot?
That day, those Pharisees and men who taught the [Jewish] laws saw that some of his disciples were eating food with hands that they had not washed [using the special ritual]. So they questioned Jesus, saying, “[Your] disciples disobey the traditions of our ancestors! (You should not [let them] eat food if they have not washed their hands [using our special ritual]!/Why do you [let them] eat food if they have not washed their hands [using our special ritual]?) [RHQ]”
6 Siya miingon, “Si Isaias nanagna bahin kaninyo mga tigpakaaron-ingnon, siya misulat, 'Kining katawhan nagpasidungog kanako uban sa ilang ngabil, apan ang ilang kasingkasing layo kanako.'
Jesus said to them, “Isaiah [rebuked your ancestors], and his words describe very well you people who only pretend to be good! He wrote these words [that God said]: These people speak [as if they] honor me, but they [SYN] really do not think about honoring me at all.
7 Walay silbi ang ilang pagdayeg nga gihalad kanako, gitudlo ang balaod sa katawhan isip tinuohan.'
It is useless for them to worship me, because they teach only what people have commanded [as if I myself had commanded them].
8 Inyong gisalikway ang kasugoan sa Dios ug paspas nga nihupot sa tulumanon sa tawo.”
You, [like your ancestors], refuse [to do] what God has commanded. Instead, you follow only the traditions that (others/your ancestors) have [taught].”
9 Siya miingon, “Sayon kaninyo ang pagsalikway sa kasugoan sa Dios aron inyong mahuptan ang inyong tulumanon!
Jesus also said to them, “[You think] [IRO] that you are clever in refusing to do what God commanded just so that you can obey your own traditions!
10 Tungod kay si Moises miingon, 'Tahora ang inyong amahan ug ang inyong inahan,' ug, 'Siya nga mosulti ug daotan sa iyang amahan o inahan, sa pagkatinuod mamatay gayod.'
[For example, our ancestor] Moses [wrote God’s] command, ‘Honor your fathers and your mothers’. He also wrote, ‘[The authorities must] execute a person who speaks evil about his father or mother.’
11 Apan kamo miingon, 'Kung ang tawo moingon ngadto sa iyang amahan o inahan, “Bisan unsa nga tabang nga madawat ninyo gikan kanako mao ang Corban,”' (kana ginaingon nga, 'Gihatag sa Dios') -
But you [teach people that it is all right that people no longer must help their parents. You teach people that it is all right if people] give their things to God [instead of giving them to their parents]. You allow them to say to their parents, ‘What I was going to give to you [to provide for you, I have now promised to] give to God. So I [cannot any longer help you]!’ As a result, you are [actually telling people] that they no longer have to help their parents!
12 unya kamo wala na magtugot kaniya sa pagbuhat sa bisan unsa alang sa iyang amahan o sa iyang inahan.
13 Inyong gihimo ang kasugoanan sa Dios nga walay bili sumala sa inyong tulumanon nga inyo gihapong gipasapasa. Ug daghan nga managsamang butang nga inyong gihimo.”
And, by doing that, you disregard what God commanded! You teach your own traditions to others [and tell them strongly that they should obey them] And you do many other things like that.”
14 Iyang gitawag pag-usab ang panon ug miingon kanila, “Pamati kanako, tanan kaninyo, ug sabta.
Then Jesus again summoned the crowd [to come closer. Then] he said to them [figuratively], “All of you people listen to me! [Try to] understand [DOU] [what I am about to tell you].
15 Walay makapahugaw sa tawo nga gikan sa gawas kung kini mosulod kaniya. Ang makapahugaw sa tawo mao ang mogawas kaniya.”
Nothing that people eat causes [God to] consider them to be unacceptable. On the contrary, it is that which comes from people’s (inner beings/hearts) that causes God to reject them.”
16 Ang mahinungdanong mga sinulat wala maapil vs. 16. Kung si bisan kinsa nga tawo nga adunay dalunggan, siya papaminawa.
17 Karon si Jesus mibiya sa panon ug misulod sa balay, ang iyang mga tinun-an nangutana kaniya mahitungod sa sambingay.
After Jesus had left the crowd and then entered a house with the disciples, they asked him about the parable [that he had just spoken].
18 Si Jesus miingon, “Kamo ba wala pa gihapon makasabot? Wala ba ninyo makita nga bisan unsa nga mosulod sa tawo gikan sa gawas dili makahugaw kaniya,
He replied, “([I am disappointed that] you also do not understand [what it means]!/Why can you not understand [what it means]?) [RHQ] (You ought to understand that nothing that [enters us from] outside can cause [God to] consider us unacceptable to him./Can you not understand that nothing that [enters us from] outside of us can cause [God to] consider us unacceptable to him?) [RHQ]
19 tungod kay kini dili man muadto sa iyang kasingkasing, apan kini mopaingon sa iyang tiyan ug unya mugawas ngadto sa kasilyas.” Niini nga pulong gihimo ni Jesus nga ang tanang pagkaon nahinloan na.
Instead of entering [and ruining] our minds/souls, it goes into our stomachs, and afterwards the refuse passes out [of our bodies].” By saying this, Jesus was declaring that people [can eat] any food without causing [God] to reject them.
20 Siya miingon, “Kini ang makapahugaw sa tawo nga mao ang mogawas kaniya.
He also said, “It is the [thoughts and actions] that come from within people that cause [God] to consider them unacceptable to him.
21 Kay gikan sa kinasuloran sa tawo, mogawas sa kasingkasing, magahimo ug daotang hunahuna, pagpakighilawas gawas sa kaminyoon, pagpangawat, pagpatay,
Specifically, it is people’s innermost being [that causes them to] think things that are evil; they act immorally, they steal [things], they commit murder.
22 pagpanapaw, kahakog, pagkadautan, pagpanlimbong, kaulag, kasina, pagbutangbutang, pagpagarbo, binuang.
They [commit] adultery, they are greedy, they [act] maliciously, they deceive [people]. They [act] indecently, they envy [people], they speak evil about others, they are proud, and they [act] foolishly.
23 Kining tanang mga daotan naggikan sa sulod, ug mao ang makapahugaw sa tawo.”
People think [these thoughts] and then they do these evil actions, and that is what causes [God to] consider them unacceptable to him.”
24 Nitindog siya gikan didto ug miadto padulong sa rehiyon sa Tyre ug Sidon. Siya misulod sa balay ug dili siya buot nga adunay usa nga masayod nga siya atua didto.
After Jesus [and his disciples] left [Galilee district], they went to the region around Tyre. While he stayed at a certain house, he desired that no one know [it], but people soon found out [that he was there].
25 Apan siya dili matago. Apan sa kalit lang ang babaye kinsa adunay gamayng anak nga babaye nga adunay hugaw nga espiritu— kini nga babaye nakadungog bahin kang Jesus ug miduol siya ug miluhod sa iyang tiilan.
A certain woman, whose daughter had an evil spirit [within her], heard about Jesus. At once she came to him and prostrated herself at his feet.
26 Karon ang babaye usa ka Griyego, nga taga-Fenicia ang kaliwat. Nagpakiluoy siya kaniya nga palayason ang demonyo gikan sa iyang anak nga babaye.
This woman [was not a Jew. Her ancestors came] from Greece [country], but she was born in [the region around] Phoenicia [town] in Syria district. She pleaded with Jesus that he expel the evil spirit from her daughter.
27 Siya miingon kaniya, “Kinahanglan pakan-on una ang kabataan. Tungod kay dili sakto nga kuhaon ang tinapay sa mga bata ug ilabay sa mga iro.”
But he [wanted to see how strongly she believed in him. So, suggesting that he should help the Jews first and not the non-Jews whom some Jews called dogs] [MET], [he] spoke to her saying, “First let the children eat all they want, because it is not good for someone to take the food [the mother has prepared] for the children and then throw it to the [little] dogs.”
28 Apan siya mitubag ug miingon ngadto kaniya, “Oo, Ginoo, bisan ang mga iro ilawom sa lamesa mokaon sa mumho sa mga bata.”
But [to show that she believed that non-Jews could also receive help from God] [MET], she replied to him, “Sir, [what you say is] correct, but even the [little] dogs, which lie under the table, eat the crumbs that the children [drop].”
29 Siya miingon ngadto kaniya, “Tungod kay ikaw misulti niini, gawasnon ka nga molakaw. Ang demonyo mugawas sa imong anak nga babaye.”
[Jesus] said to her, “Because of what you have said, [you have shown me that you believe in what I can do for you]. So I will help you. Now you may go [home, because I have caused] the evil spirit to leave your daughter.”
30 Siya mibalik sa iyang panimalay ug iyang nakita ang bata nga naghigda sa iyang higdaanan, ug wala na ang demonyo.
The woman returned to her house and saw that her child was lying [quietly] on the bed and that the evil spirit had left.
31 Miadto siya pag-usab sa gawas gikan sa rehiyon sa Tyre ug miadto agi sa Sidon sa dagat sa Galilea nga rehiyon sa Decapolis.
Jesus [and his disciples] left the region around Tyre [city] and went [north] through Sidon [city], then [toward the east] through the district of the Ten Towns, and then [south] to [the towns near] Lake Galilee.
32 Ilang gidala ang usa ka tawo nga bungol ug amang, ug sila nagpakiluoy kang Jesus aron ipandong ang iyang kamot kaniya.
[There], people brought to him a man who was deaf and who could hardly talk. They begged [Jesus] to lay his hands on him [in order to heal him].
33 Iyang gikuha siya gikan sa pundok sa tago, ug iyang gibutang ang iyang mga tudlo sa iyang mga dalonggan, ug pagkahuman niyag luwa, iyang gihikap ang dila.
[So Jesus] took him away from the crowd [in order that the two of them could be] alone. Then he put [one of] his fingers into [each of] the man’s ears. After he spat [on his fingers], he touched the man’s tongue [with his fingers].
34 Siya mihangad sa langit; siya nanghupaw ug miingon kaniya, “Ephphatha,” kana ginaingon, “Buka!”
Then he looked up toward heaven, he sighed [because he was concerned for the man], and then [in his own language] he said to the man’s [ears], “Ephphatha”, which means, “Be opened {Open up}!”.
35 Gihimo ni Jesus nga ang iyang mga dalonggan makadungog, ug makausa gikuha niya ang nakapugong sa iyang dila nga siya dili makasolti, mao nga siya karon makasolti na ug maayo.
At once the man could hear plainly [MTY]. He also began to speak clearly because [what was causing him to be unable to speak] was healed {Jesus healed [what was causing him to be unable to speak]}.
36 Iyang gisugo sila nga dili kini isulti kang bisan kinsa. Apan hinuon, sa dihang nagmando siya kanila nga magpakahilom, misamot hinuon sila pagsugilon mahitungod niini.
Jesus told ([the people/his friends]) not to tell anyone [what he had done]. But, although he ordered them [and others] repeatedly [not to tell anyone about it], they kept talking about it very much.
37 Sila hingpit nga nahibulong, nga nag-ingon, “Iyang gibuhat ang tanan pag-ayo. Gihimo niya nga bisan ang bungol makadungog ug ang amang makasulti.”
[People who heard about it] were utterly amazed and were saying [enthusiastically], “Everything he has done is wonderful! [Besides doing other amazing things], he enables deaf people to hear! And he enables those who cannot speak to speak!”
