Mariko 4
1 Kendo Yesu nochako puonjo e dho nam. To oganda maduongʼ nochokore molwore omiyo nodonjo ei yie mi obetie ka ji duto to ochungʼ oko e dho nam.
And again he began to teach by the sea, and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he, having gone into the boat, sat in the sea, and all the multitude was near the sea, on the land,
2 Yesu nopuonjogi gik mangʼeny e yor ngeche. E puonjnego nowacho niya,
and he taught them many things in similes, and he said to them in his teaching:
3 “Winjauru! Japur moro nodhi chwoyo kodhi,
'Hearken, lo, the sower went forth to sow;
4 kane oyudo ochwoyo, kodhi moko nolwar e dir yo, mi winy nobiro mochamogi duto.
and it came to pass, in the sowing, some fell by the way, and the fowls of the heaven did come and devour it;
5 Kodhi moko nolwar kuonde motimo lwendni, ma lowo operoree mine gitwi piyo piyo, nikech lowo ne thany thany.
and other fell upon the rocky ground, where it had not much earth, and immediately it sprang forth, because of not having depth of earth,
6 To ka chiengʼ nowuok, chamgo nowangʼ, kendo nikech ne gionge tiendegi, ne gitwo.
and the sun having risen, it was scorched, and because of not having root it did wither;
7 Kodhi moko nolwar e kind kudho, to ka kudhogo nodongo, ne githungʼo chamgo mi gimonogi nyak.
and other fell toward the thorns, and the thorns did come up, and choke it, and fruit it gave not;
8 To kodhi moko to nolwar e lowo maber, mine gitwi kendo gichiego cham. Neginyago cham, moko nyadi piero adek, moko nyadi piero auchiel, kendo moko nyadi mia achiel.”
and other fell to the good ground, and was giving fruit, coming up and increasing, and it bare, one thirty-fold, and one sixty, and one an hundred.'
9 Bangʼe Yesu nomedo wacho niya, “Ngʼat man-gi it mar winjo wach mondo owinji.”
And he said to them, 'He who is having ears to hear — let him hear.'
10 Kane odongʼ kende, jopuonjrene apar gariyo gi jomoko mane ni bute nopenje tiend ngechego.
And when he was alone, those about him, with the twelve, did ask him of the simile,
11 Nowachonigi niya, “Un osemiu rieko mar ngʼeyo tiend gik mopondo mag pinyruoth Nyasaye. To joma moko, to iwuoyogo gi ngeche
and he said to them, 'To you it hath been given to know the secret of the reign of God, but to those who are without, in similes are all the things done;
12 mondo mi, “‘gisik ka gingʼicho to ok ginine gimoro, kendo gisik ka giwinjo weche miwacho to wach ok nodonjnegi; nimar dipo ka gilokore mi owenegi richogi!’”
that seeing they may see and not perceive, and hearing they may hear and not understand, lest they may turn, and the sins may be forgiven them.'
13 Yesu nomedo loso kodgi kowachonegi niya, “Ere kaka ok unyal winjo tiend ngeroni? Ka kamano to bende ubiro winjo tiend ngero moro amora?
And he saith to them, 'Have ye not known this simile? and how shall ye know all the similes?
14 Japur chwoyo kodhi ma en Wach.
He who is sowing doth sow the word;
15 Jomoko chalo gi kodhi molwar e dir yo, kama ichwoyoe Wach. E sa nogo ma jogi owinjoe Wach to Satan biro mi magi Wach ma giwinjono.
and these are they by the way where the word is sown: and whenever they may hear, immediately cometh the Adversary, and he taketh away the word that hath been sown in their hearts.
16 Jomoko to chalo mana kaka kodhi mochwo kuonde motimo lwanda. Gin giwinjo Wach kendo girwake sano gi mor.
'And these are they, in like manner, who on the rocky ground are sown: who, whenever they may hear the word, immediately with joy do receive it,
17 To nikech gionge tiendegi Wach ok bedi eigi amingʼa. Ka chandruok kata sand obiro nigi nikech Wach Nyasaye to gipodho piyo piyo nono.
and have not root in themselves, but are temporary; afterward tribulation or persecution having come because of the word, immediately they are stumbled.
18 Moko chalo kaka kodhi molwar e kind kudho.
'And these are they who toward the thorns are sown: these are they who are hearing the word,
19 To achien parruok kuom ngima mar pinyni gi wuond ma mwandu kelo kaachiel gi gombo mag pinyni ma gigombogo gik mathoth, thungʼo Wach mamone nyak. (aiōn g165)
and the anxieties of this age, and the deceitfulness of the riches, and the desires concerning the other things, entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
20 Moko to chal mana gi kodhi mochuo e lowo maber, giwinjo Wach mi girwaki. Kendo ginyak maber mana ka kodhi manyak nyadi piero adek, nyadi piero auchiel, nyaka nyadi mia achiel.”
'And these are they who on the good ground have been sown: who do hear the word, and receive, and do bear fruit, one thirty-fold, and one sixty, and one an hundred.'
21 Nowachonegi niya, “Bende ngʼato kuomu nyalo moko taya bangʼe to oume gi bakul kata okete e bwo kitanda? Donge okete ewi rachungi taya?
And he said to them, 'Doth the lamp come that under the measure it may be put, or under the couch — not that it may be put on the lamp-stand?
22 Ngʼeuru ni onge gimoro mopandi ma ok nofweny, to bende onge gimoro amora mitimo lingʼ-lingʼ ma ok noket e lela.
for there is not anything hid that may not be manifested, nor was anything kept hid but that it may come to light.
23 Ka ngʼato nigi it mar winjo wach to mondo owinji.”
If any hath ears to hear — let him hear.'
24 Yesu nodhi nyime kawachonegi niya, “Chikuru itu maber mondo uwinj weche miwachonu, nimar rapim mupimogo ema ibiro pimnugo un bende, kendo moloyo kanyo.
And he said to them, 'Take heed what ye hear; in what measure ye measure, it shall be measured to you; and to you who hear it shall be added;
25 Ngʼat man-go nomedne mi nobed gi gik mogundho; to ngʼat ma ongego kata mano ma en-go nomaye.”
for whoever may have, there shall be given to him, and whoever hath not, also that which he hath shall be taken from him.'
26 Nowacho bende niya, “Ma e kaka pinyruoth Nyasaye chalo. Ngʼato chwoyo kodhi e lowo.
And he said, 'Thus is the reign of God: as if a man may cast the seed on the earth,
27 Otieno kata odiechiengʼ, kata ka onindo kata oneno, to kodhigo twi atwiya mi dongi, ka jachwoyo ok ongʼeyo kaka mano timore.
and may sleep, and may rise night and day, and the seed spring up and grow, he hath not known how;
28 Lowo owuon ema golo kodhi; mokwongo tiendene wuok, eka wiye gulo oko kaeto bangʼe kodhi dongo mi chieg cham.
for of itself doth the earth bear fruit, first a blade, afterwards an ear, afterwards full corn in the ear;
29 Ka cham osechiek to gikanyono wuon puodho kawo pand keyo mondo okayego.”
and whenever the fruit may yield itself, immediately he doth send forth the sickle, because the harvest hath come.'
30 Nowacho kendo niya, “En yo mane ma wanyalo pimogo pinyruoth Nyasaye, kata en ngero mane manyalo nyisowa kite?
And he said, 'To what may we liken the reign of God, or in what simile may we compare it?
31 Ochal gi koth karadali ma en e kodhi matinie mogik mikomo e puodho.
As a grain of mustard, which, whenever it may be sown on the earth, is less than any of the seeds that are on the earth;
32 To kata otin kamano to kosekome to odongo mi obed maduongʼ moloyo yiende mag puodho duto. Bedene yarore madongo mi winy mafuyo e kor polo biro ywe e tipone.”
and whenever it may be sown, it cometh up, and doth become greater than any of the herbs, and doth make great branches, so that under its shade the fowls of the heaven are able to rest.'
33 Yesu nomedo wuoyonegi gi ngeche machal gi mago e thuolo moro amora mane ginyalo winje.
And with many such similes he was speaking to them the word, as they were able to hear,
34 Ne ok owachonegi wach moro amora ma ok okonyore gi ngero. To ka thuolo noyudore mi odongʼ gi jopuonjrene kendgi to nonyisogi tiend weche duto.
and without a simile he was not speaking to them, and by themselves, to his disciples he was expounding all.
35 Chiengʼno godhiambo Yesu nowacho ne jopuonjrene niya, “Wadhiuru loka nam komachielo.”
And he saith to them on that day, evening having come, 'We may pass over to the other side;'
36 Omiyo ne giwuok giweyo oganda, mine gidhi kode mana kaka ne En-no, mi gichako kwangʼ kode ei yie. Ne nitie yiedhi mamoko bende mane kwangʼ kodgi e nam.
and having let away the multitude, they take him up as he was in the boat, and other little boats also were with him.
37 Eka ahiti mangʼongo notugore mi apaka nochako tago yie koni gi koni mi pi nochako pongʼe.
And there cometh a great storm of wind, and the waves were beating on the boat, so that it is now being filled,
38 Sechego noyudo Yesu nindo ewi raten man kachien yie. Jopuonjre nochiewe kagiwachone niya, “Japuonj, donge litni ka watho?”
and he himself was upon the stern, upon the pillow sleeping, and they wake him up, and say to him, 'Teacher, art thou not caring that we perish?'
39 Yesu nochiewo mokwero yamo. Nochiko apaka kowachone niya, “Kwe! Lingʼ thi!” Gikanyono yamo nokwe mi piny olingʼ thi.
And having waked up, he rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, 'Peace, be stilled;' and the wind did lull, and there was a great calm:
40 Bangʼ mano Yesu nowachone jopuonjrene niya, “Angʼo momiyo uluor kamano? Pod uonge mana gi yie?”
and he said to them, 'Why are ye so fearful? how have ye not faith?'
41 Luoro nomakogi mi gipenjore kendgi niya, “Ma en ngʼa, ma kata yamo gi apaka bende winje?”
and they feared a great fear, and said one to another, 'Who, then, is this, that even the wind and the sea do obey him?'
