Mark 4
1 Again he began to teach by the seaside. A great multitude was gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat in the sea and sat down. All the multitude were on the land by the sea.
Yesu akatumbula kuvawula kavili kumwambu ya nyanja ya Galilaya. Ndava ya msambi uvaha wa vandu wewamtindili yaganikiwi ayingila muwatu na kutama, vandu voha vasigalili kundumba.
2 He taught them many things in parables, and told them in his teaching,
Ndi penapo avawuli mambu gamahele kwa miluhumu, akavajovela.
3 “Listen! Behold, the farmer went out to sow.
“Muyuwanila hoti! Mundu mmonga ahambili kumgunda kumija mbeyu.
4 As he sowed, some seed fell by the road, and the birds came and devoured it.
Hinu paamijayi mbeyu, zingi zikagwilila munjila, videge vikabwela kuhola.
5 Others fell on the rocky ground, where it had little soil, and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of soil.
Mbeyu zingi zikagwilila palitalau, zikamela kanyata pandu pangali na ludaka lwamahele.
6 When the sun had risen, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
Lilanga palachonayi zanyalili na kuyuma, muni mikiga yaki yavi lepi na ludaka lwamahele.
7 Others fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
Zingi zagwili pagati ya minga, minga yakulili na kuyihinya hati zapambiki lepi matunda.
8 Others fell into the good ground and yielded fruit, growing up and increasing. Some produced thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times as much.”
Zingi zagwili paludaka lwa bwina, zikamela zikakula na kupambika yimonga selasini na yingi sitini na yingi miya yimonga.”
9 He said, “Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.”
Ndi akavajovela, “Mweavi na makutu gakuyuwana na amanyayi!”
10 When he was alone, those who were around him with the twelve asked him about the parables.
Yesu peavili mwene, pagati ya vevamuyuwanili vala na vawuliwa kumi na vavili, vamuhambalili Yesu vakamkota, ndava ya miluhumu yila.
11 He said to them, “To you is given the mystery of God’s Kingdom, but to those who are outside, all things are done in parables,
Akavajovela, “Nyenye mupewili kugamanya mambu ga mfiyu ga Unkosi wa Chapanga.” “Nambu vevavi kuvala vala yati vakujiwula kwa miluhumu ndu,
12 that ‘seeing they may see and not perceive, and hearing they may hear and not understand, lest perhaps they should turn again, and their sins should be forgiven them.’”
muni, ‘Chakaka valolayi, nambu vilola lepi, chakaka vayuwana, nambu vimanya lepi. Manya vamuwuyila Chapanga, namwene ngaavalekekisi.’”
13 He said to them, “Do not you understand this parable? How will you understand all of the parables?
Kangi Yesu akavakota, “Ngati mwimanya lepi mana ya luhumu ulu? Mwihotola wuli kuyimanya mana za miluhumu yingi?
14 The farmer sows the word.
Mweimija mbeyu ndi imija Lilovi la Chapanga.
15 The ones by the road are the ones where the word is sown; and when they have heard, immediately Satan comes and takes away the word which has been sown in them.
Mbeyu zingi zagwilili munjila, ndi vandu vala vevayuwini lilovi, Setani akabwela na kuliwusa lilovi lenilo lelimijiwi mumitima yavi.
16 These in the same way are those who are sown on the rocky places, who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with joy.
Mbeyu zila zezamijiwi palitalau ndi ngati vandu vala, veviyuwana lilovi bahapo vakulipokela kwa luheku.
17 They have no root in themselves, but are short-lived. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately they stumble.
Nambu likuvayingila lepi nakuvya na mikiga mugati yavi, vakulikamula mulukumbi luhupi ndu. Na lukumbi lwa mang'ahiso peluhumila ndava ya lilovi lenilo, vikuvanduka na kugwa.
18 Others are those who are sown among the thorns. These are those who have heard the word,
Vandu vangi ndi ngati mbeyu zila zezagwilili pagati ya minga. Wenuwo ndi luhumu lwa vala veviyuwana lilovi lenilo,
19 and the cares of this age (aiōn g165), and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.
ndava ya mang'ahiso ga mulima uwu, mnogo wa kuvya na vindu vyamahele mnogo wa higa ukuvayingila na kulihinya lilovi lenilo, na vene viyidikila lepi chila chelijova lilovi. (aiōn g165)
20 Those which were sown on the good ground are those who hear the word, accept it, and bear fruit, some thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times.”
Nambu vandu vangi ngati mbeyu zezimijiwi paludaka lwabwina. Venavo ndi veviyuwana lilovi lenilo, vakuliyidakila na kupambika matunda. Vangi selasini, vangi sitini na vangi miya yimonga.”
21 He said to them, “Is a lamp brought to be put under a basket or under a bed? Is not it put on a stand?
Yesu akavakota, “Mwaloli koki vandu vigubika hahi yeyiyaka na chiviga amala vivika kuhi kulusongwani? Lepi! Vivika panani pachibokoselu.
22 For there is nothing hidden except that it should be made known, neither was anything made secret but that it should come to light.
Hinu, goha gegafiyiki yati givya pawaka na goha gegagubikiwi yati gigubukuliwa.
23 If any man has ears to hear, let him hear.”
Mweavi na makutu gakuyuwana na amanyayi!”
24 He said to them, “Take heed what you hear. With whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you; and more will be given to you who hear.
Akavajovela kavili, “Myuwanila chipimu chilachila chemukuvapimila vayinu, na nyenye yati mwipimiwa mewawa, na kuyonjokeswa.
25 For whoever has, to him more will be given; and he who does not have, even that which he has will be taken away from him.”
Mundu yeyoha mweavi na chindu yati iyonjokesewa neju, nambu mweangavya na chindu hati chidebe ndi hati cheavi nachu yati inyagiwa.”
26 He said, “God’s Kingdom is as if a man should cast seed on the earth,
Yesu akayendelela kuvajovela, “Unkosi wa Chapanga uvi ngati mundu mweimija mbeyu mumgunda waki.
27 and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should spring up and grow, though he does not know how.
Kilu igona, na muhi ivya mihu na lukumbi lwenulo mbeyu yimela na kukula. Mwene amanyili lepi chechihengeka.
28 For the earth bears fruit by itself: first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.
Muni ludaka lwene lumelesa mbeyu. Yikula na kupambika. Yitumbula kumela linyai, yigelekela njechela na pamwishu mbeyu yikangala.
29 But when the fruit is ripe, immediately he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.”
Mbeyu peyikangala mundu mwenuyo itola chikwakwa na kutumbula kubena muni lukumbi lwa mabenu luhikili.”
30 He said, “How will we liken God’s Kingdom? Or with what parable will we illustrate it?
Yesu akajova kavili, “Unkosi wa Chapanga tiuwanangisa na kyani? Tiudandaulayi kwa luhumu lwoki?
31 It’s like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, though it is less than all the seeds that are on the earth,
Uwanangana ngati lumbeyu lwa haladali lweluvili ludebe kuliku mbeyu zoha zezimijiwa mumgunda.
32 yet when it is sown, grows up and becomes greater than all the herbs, and puts out great branches, so that the birds of the sky can lodge under its shadow.”
Nambu yikamijiwayi, yimela na kuvya mkongo uvaha kuliku mikongo yoha mumgunda. Mambanda gaki gavaha hati videge vijenga hisakanilu mumambanda gaki.”
33 With many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear it.
Yesu avakokosili vandu ujumbi waki kwa miluhumu yingi yamahele ngati yeniyo, alongili nawu chavahotwili kumanya.
34 Without a parable he did not speak to them; but privately to his own disciples he explained everything.
Lukumbi lwoha alongili nawu lepi chochoha changali miluhumu nambu paavi na vawuliwa vaki avadandaulili kila chindu.
35 On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let’s go over to the other side.”
Lilanga palatipimi ligono lilolo, Yesu akavajovela vawuliwa vaki, “Tikupuka kumwambu.”
36 Leaving the multitude, they took him with them, even as he was, in the boat. Other small boats were also with him.
Hinu, vawuliwa vakaulaga msambi wa vandu, vakayingila muwatu weavili Yesu na kuwuka pamonga nayu. Na vandu vakayingila muwatu wungi vakamlanda.
37 A big wind storm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so much that the boat was already filled.
Pavakupukayi, mpungu uvaha ukahumila manji gakutimbungana na kuutova watu na manji gakatumbula kumema muwatu.
38 He himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him up and asked him, “Teacher, do not you care that we are dying?”
Penapo Yesu avi mumbele ya watu kuni agonili pamsagamilu. Ndi vawuliwa vaki vakamuyimusa vakamkota, “Muwula, wuli, tifwaa ukutilolokesa ndu!”
39 He awoke and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” The wind ceased and there was a great calm.
Hinu, akayimuka, akauhakalila mpungu na kuujovela luyuga lwa manji, “Guna!” Ndi penapo mpungu wula ukaleka kubuma na nyanja yikavya nuu.
40 He said to them, “Why are you so afraid? How is it that you have no faith?”
Yesu akavajovela vawuliwa vaki, “Mwiyogopa kyani? Wu, mwakona kusadika?”
41 They were greatly afraid and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?”
Ndi penapo vavi na wogohi neju, vakatumbula kukotana, “Mundu uyu yani? Mbaka mpungu na manji gakutimbungana vikumyuwana na kuguna!”
