San Marcos 7
1 YA mandaña guiya güiya y Fariseo sija, yan palo gui escriba sija ni manmato guine Jerusalem,
One day the Pharisees and some of the Teachers of the Law who had come from Jerusalem gathered round Jesus.
2 Ya malie palo gui disipuluña na mañochocho pan yan áplacha na canae, ni comequeilegña na pot ti jafagase.
They had noticed that some of his disciples ate their food with their hands ‘defiled,’ by which they meant unwashed.
3 Sa y Fariseo sija, yan toda y Judio sija, jaadadaje y tradision manamco sija, yaguin megae nae ti jafagase y canaeñija, ti ufañocho.
(For the Pharisees, and indeed all strict Jews, will not eat without first scrupulously washing their hands, holding in this to the traditions of their ancestors.
4 Ya anae manmato guine y metcado, yaguin ti jafagase sija, ti ufañocho; yan megae sija na güinaja rinesibeñija para ujaadaje, parejoja yan mafagase y copa sija, yan y jara sija, yan y bason coble sija.
When they come from market, they will not eat without first sprinkling themselves; and there are many other customs which they have inherited and hold to, such as the ceremonial washing of cups, and jugs, and copper pans).
5 Ya mafaesen ni Fariseo sija yan y escriba sija: Jafa y disipulumo sija na ti manmamómocat taemano y tradision manamco sija; mañochochoja pan yan aplacha y canaeñija?
So the Pharisees and the Teachers of the Law asked Jesus this question — “How is it that your disciples do not follow the traditions of our ancestors, but eat their food with defiled hands?”
6 Ya ilegña nu sija: Hipocrita jamyo; mauleg sinanganña si Isaias, ni y esta matugue: Este sija na taotao y labiosñija nae maonrayo, lao y corasonñija chago guiya guajo.
His answer was: “It was well said by Isaiah when he prophesied about you hypocrites in the words — ‘This is a people that honour me with their lips, while their hearts are far removed from me;
7 Lao taebale jaadorayo, manmamananagüe ni finanagüe ni tinago taotao sija.
but vainly do they worship me, For they teach but the precepts of men.’
8 Sa inpelo jamyo y tinago Yuus, ya mantietiene fitme y tradision taotao sija: (ni y mafagase y jara sija, yan y copa sija, yan infatinas megae sija na güinaja parejo yan este.)
You neglect God’s commandments and hold to the traditions of men.
9 Ya ilegña nu sija: Magajet jamyo yumute y tinago Yuus para inadaje y tradisionmiyo.
Wisely do you set aside God’s commandments,” he exclaimed, “to keep your own traditions!
10 Sa si Moises ilegña: Onra si tatamo yan si nanamo; ya y mumatdise y tata pat y nana, seguro na umatae.
For while Moses said ‘Honour thy father and thy mother,’ and ‘Let him who reviles his father or mother suffer death,’
11 Lao jamyo ilegmiyo: Yaguin y taotao ilegña ni tataña pat nanaña: Y Cotban (cumequeilegña y ninae) na jago umaprobecha pot guajo, güiya sumaga libre.
you say ‘If a man says to his father or mother “Whatever of mine might have been of service to you is Korban”’ (which means ‘Given to God’) —
12 Ya inpelo güe na ufatinas taya para si tataña pat si nanaña;
why, then you do not allow him to do anything further for his father or mother!
13 Inrechasa y sinangan Yuus ni ninaenmiyo na tradision; yan megae sija na güinaja finatinasmiyo parejo yan este.
In this way you nullify the words of God by your traditions, which you hand down; and you do many similar things.”
14 Ya jaagang talo guiya güiya todo y linajyan taotao ya ilegña: Ecungog jamyo todos, ya intingo.
Then Jesus called the people to him again, and said: “Listen to me, all of you, and mark my words.
15 Taya gui sumanjiyong gui taotao ni y janajalom, siña numataelaye, lao y janajujuyong gui jinalomña, ayo sija munatataelaye y taotao
There is nothing external to a man, which by going into him can ‘defile’ him; but the things that come out from a man are the things that defile him.”
16 (Yaguin guaja gaetalanga para ufanjungog, uecungog)
17 Ya anae jumalom gui guima, jadingo y linajyan taotao, y disipuluña sija mafaesen güe ni acomparasion.
When Jesus went indoors, away from the crowd, his disciples began questioning him about this saying.
18 Ya ilegña nu sija: Taegüenaja jamyo locue manaetiningo? Ti intingo na todo y guine jiyong ni jumajalom y taotao ti siña ninataelaye?
“What, do even you understand so little?” exclaimed Jesus. “Do not you see that there is nothing external to a man, which by going into a man, can ‘defile’ him,
19 Sa ti jumajalom gui corasonña na y tiyanña ya malolofan gui secreto; taegüenao janagasgas todo y nengcano.
because it does not pass into his heart, but into his stomach, and is afterwards got rid of? — in saying this Jesus pronounced all food ‘clean.’
20 Yan ilegña: Y jumujuyong gui taotao, ayo munatataelaye y taotao.
“It is what comes out from a man,” he added, “that defiles him,
21 Sa y gui jinalomña gui corason y taotao sija nae, manjujuyong y manaelaye na jinaso sija, y manadulterio, y manábale yan y manpegno,
for it is from within, out of the hearts of men, that there come evil thoughts — unchastity, theft, murder, adultery,
22 Y mañaque sija, y manlatga, y manaelaye, y dinague, y inábale, y taelaye na atadog, y chinatfino contra si Yuus, y sobetbio, y bababa:
greed, wickedness, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, haughtiness, folly;
23 Todo este sija na tinaelaye, manguine jalom ya janatataelaye y taotao.
all these wicked things come from within, and do defile a man.”
24 Ya cajulo güije, mapos para y oriyan Tiro yan Sidon; ya jumalom gui guima, malagoña na taya utiningo; lao ti siña unatog.
On leaving that place, Jesus went to the district of Tyre and Sidon. And he went into a house, and did not wish anyone to know it, but could not escape notice.
25 Sa jajungog masasangan güe un palaoan na y diquique na jagaña, guaja un áplacha na espiritu, mato ya jatomba güe gui adengña:
For a woman, whose little daughter had a foul spirit in her, heard of him immediately, and came and threw herself at his feet —
26 Ya y palaoan Griega, gui tano Sirofenisa, y tinayuyut güe na uyute juyong gui jagaña y anite.
the woman was a foreigner, a native of Syrian Phoenicia — and she begged him to drive the demon out of her daughter.
27 Lao ilegña nu guiya: Polo finena ya ufanjaspog y famaguon sija; sa ti mauleg machule y pan y famaguon, ya ufanmayotte y galago sija.
“Let the children be satisfied first,” answered Jesus. “For it is not fair to take the children’s food, and throw it to dogs.”
28 Ya manope y palaoan, ilegña: Junggan, Señot; lao y galago sija, gui papa lamasa, jacacanoja y andesmoronan y famaguon sija.
“Yes, Master,” she replied; “even the dogs under the table do feed on the children’s crumbs.”
29 Ayo nae ilegña ni palaoan: Pot este na sinangan, janao y anite jumanao gui jagamo.
“For saying that,” he answered, “you may go. The demon has gone out of your daughter.”
30 Ya anae jumanao para iyasija, jasoda na y jagaña umaason gui jilo cama, ya y anite esta jumanao.
The woman went home, and found the child lying on her bed, and the demon gone.
31 Ya tumalo jumanao gui oriyan Tiro yan malofan guiya Sidon, ya mato gui tasen Galilea; ya malofan gui entalo y oriyan Decapolis.
On returning from the district of Tyre, Jesus went, by way of Sidon, to the Sea of Galilee, across the district of the Ten Towns.
32 Ya maconie güe un tanga ya udo, ya matayuyut güe na upolo y canaeña gui jiloña.
Some people brought to him a man who was deaf and almost dumb, and they begged Jesus to place his hand on him.
33 Ya janasajnge güe gui linajyan taotao, ya japolo y calolotña gui talangan y tanga, ya tumola ya japacha y jilaña;
Jesus took him aside from the crowd quietly, put his fingers into the man’s ears, and touched his tongue with saliva.
34 Ya jaatan julo y langet sumospiros, ya ilegña: Efatha, cumequeilegña, mababa!
Then, looking up to Heaven, he sighed, and said to the man: “Ephphatha!” which means ‘Be opened.’
35 Ya mababa y talangaña; ya mapula y gumogode y jilaña, ya cumuentos mauleg.
The man’s ears were opened, the string of his tongue was freed, and he began to talk plainly.
36 Ya jaencatga sija, na chañija sumangangane ni jaye; lao mientras mas jaencatga, mas manamamto;
Jesus insisted upon their not telling any one; but the more he insisted, the more perseveringly they made it known,
37 Ya ninafangosmanman, ilegñija: Mauleg finatinasña todo: janafanmanjungog y mananga, ya y manudo janafanguentos.
and a profound impression was made upon the people. “He has done everything well!” they exclaimed. “He makes even the deaf hear and the dumb speak!”
