Mark 10
1 Then Jesus left that place and went into the region of Judea, beyond the Jordan. Again the crowds came to Him and He taught them, as was His custom.
Jesũ agĩcooka akiuma kũu agĩthiĩ bũrũri wa Judea na mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ wa Jorodani. O rĩngĩ andũ ikundi magĩũka kũrĩ we, nake akĩmaruta ũhoro o ta ũrĩa aamenyerete gwĩka.
2 Some Pharisees came to test Him. “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?” they inquired.
Na Afarisai amwe magĩũka kũrĩ we makĩenda kũmũgeria, makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Watho nĩwĩtĩkĩrĩtie mũndũ atigane na mũtumia wake?”
3 “What did Moses command you?” He replied.
Nake agĩcookia ũhoro, akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Musa aamwathire mwĩkage atĩa?”
4 They answered, “Moses permitted a man to write his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away.”
Nao makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Musa nĩetĩkagĩria mũndũ aandĩkĩre mũtumia wake marũa ma gũtigana nake, amũte.”
5 But Jesus told them, “Moses wrote this commandment for you because of your hardness of heart.
Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Musa aamwandĩkĩire watho ũcio tondũ wa ũrĩa muomĩtie ngoro cianyu.
6 However, from the beginning of creation, ‘God made them male and female.’
No kuuma o kĩambĩrĩria, Ngai ‘ombire mũndũ mũrũme na mũndũ-wa-nja’.
7 ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife,
‘Gĩkĩ nĩkĩo gĩtũmaga mũndũ mũrũme atige ithe na nyina na anyiitane na mũtumia wake,
8 and the two will become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two, but one flesh.
nao eerĩ magatuĩka mwĩrĩ ũmwe.’ Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, acio ti andũ eerĩ rĩngĩ, no nĩ mũndũ ũmwe.
9 Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.”
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, arĩa Ngai anyiitithanĩtie, mũndũ ndakanamatigithanie.”
10 When they were back inside the house, the disciples asked Jesus about this matter.
Na maatoonya nyũmba thĩinĩ, arutwo makĩũria Jesũ ũhoro ũcio o rĩngĩ.
11 So He told them, “Whoever divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her.
Nake akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ o wothe angĩtigana na mũtumia wake acooke ahikie mũtumia ũngĩ, mũndũ ũcio nĩ atharĩtie.
12 And if a woman divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery.”
Nake mũtumia angĩtigana na mũthuuriwe, ahikĩre mũndũ mũrũme ũngĩ, o nake nĩ atharĩtie.”
13 Now people were bringing the little children to Jesus for Him to place His hands on them, and the disciples rebuked those who brought them.
Nao andũ makĩrehera Jesũ twana tũnini nĩguo atũhutie, no arutwo ake makĩmakaania.
14 But when Jesus saw this, He was indignant and told them, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them! For the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
Rĩrĩa Jesũ oonire ũguo, akĩrakara, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Rekei twana tũu tũũke kũrĩ niĩ, tigai gũtũgiria, nĩgũkorwo ũthamaki wa Ngai nĩ wa arĩa matariĩ ta tuo.
15 Truly I tell you, anyone who does not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”
Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, ũrĩa wothe ũtakamũkĩra ũthamaki wa Ngai ta kaana ndakaũtoonya o na atĩa.”
16 And He took the children in His arms, placed His hands on them, and blessed them.
Nake akĩoya twana tũu, agĩtũigĩrĩra moko, agĩtũrathima.
17 As Jesus started on His way, a man ran up and knelt before Him. “Good Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
Na rĩrĩa Jesũ oimagaraga, mũndũ ũmwe nĩatengʼerire harĩ we, agĩturia ndu mbere yake, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mũrutani mwega, ingĩĩka atĩa nĩguo ngaagaya muoyo wa tene na tene?” (aiōnios g166)
18 “Why do you call Me good?” Jesus replied. “No one is good except God alone.
Nake Jesũ akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũkũnjĩta mwega nĩkĩ? Gũtirĩ o na ũmwe mwega, tiga o Ngai we wiki.
19 You know the commandments: ‘Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not bear false witness, do not cheat others, honor your father and mother.’”
Wee nĩ ũũĩ ũrĩa maathani moigĩte: ‘Ndũkanoragane, na ndũkanatharanie, na ndũkanaiye, na ndũkanaigĩrĩre mũndũ ũrĩa ũngĩ kĩgeenyo, na ndũkanaheenanie, na tĩĩa thoguo na nyũkwa.’”
20 “Teacher,” he replied, “all these I have kept from my youth.”
Nake akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũrutani, macio mothe ndũire ndĩmarũmĩtie kuuma ndĩ mũnini.”
21 Jesus looked at him, loved him, and said to him, “There is one thing you lack: Go, sell everything you own and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me.”
Nake Jesũ amũrora, akĩmwenda, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kũrĩ ũndũ ũmwe ũtigairie: Thiĩ wendie indo ciaku ciothe iria ũrĩ nacio ũhe athĩĩni mbeeca icio, na nĩũkagĩa na mũthithũ igũrũ. Ũcooke ũũke, ũnũmĩrĩre.”
22 But the man was saddened by these words and went away in sorrow, because he had great wealth.
Mwanake ũcio agĩtukia gĩthiithi. Agĩthiĩ arĩ na kĩeha, tondũ aarĩ na ũtonga mũingĩ.
23 Then Jesus looked around and said to His disciples, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!”
Nake Jesũ akĩĩhũgũra, akĩĩra arutwo ake atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ nĩ ũndũ wĩ hinya gĩtonga gũtoonya ũthamaki-inĩ wa Ngai-ĩ!”
24 And the disciples were amazed at His words. But Jesus said to them again, “Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God!
Nao arutwo makĩgega maigua ciugo ciake. No Jesũ akiuga o rĩngĩ atĩrĩ, “Ciana, kaĩ nĩ ũndũ wĩ hinya gũtoonya ũthamaki-inĩ wa Ngai-ĩ!
25 It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”
Nĩ ũhũthũ ngamĩĩra kũhungura irima rĩa cindano gũkĩra gĩtonga gũtoonya ũthamaki-inĩ wa Ngai.”
26 They were even more astonished and said to one another, “Who then can be saved?”
Arutwo ake magĩkĩrĩrĩria kũgega, makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Nũũ ũngĩkĩhonoka?”
27 Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.”
Nake Jesũ akĩmarora, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Harĩ mũndũ ũndũ ũyũ ndũngĩhoteka, no harĩ Ngai tiguo; maũndũ mothe nĩ mahotekaga nĩ Ngai.”
28 Peter began to say to Him, “Look, we have left everything and followed You.”
Petero akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ithuĩ tũtigĩte maũndũ mothe tũgakũrũmĩrĩra!”
29 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for My sake and for the gospel
Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, gũtirĩ mũndũ ũtigĩte mũciĩ kana ariũ a nyina, kana aarĩ a nyina, kana nyina, kana ithe, kana ciana, o na kana ithaka nĩ ũndũ wakwa, na nĩ ũndũ wa Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega,
31 But many who are first will be last, and the last will be first.”
No rĩrĩ, andũ aingĩ arĩa marĩ mbere nĩmagatuĩka a thuutha, na a thuutha matuĩke a mbere.”
32 As they were going up the road to Jerusalem, Jesus was walking ahead of them. The disciples were amazed, but those who followed were afraid. Again Jesus took the Twelve aside and began to tell them what was going to happen to Him:
Na rĩrĩa maarĩ njĩra-inĩ makĩambata merekeire Jerusalemu, Jesũ amatongoretie, arutwo ake nĩmagegire, nao arĩa maamarũmĩrĩire magĩĩtigĩra. O rĩngĩ Jesũ agĩtwara arutwo arĩa ikũmi na eerĩ keheri-inĩ, akĩambĩrĩria kũmeera maũndũ marĩa maakirie kũmũkora.
33 “Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and scribes. They will condemn Him to death and will deliver Him over to the Gentiles,
Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũkwambata tũthiĩ Jerusalemu, nake Mũrũ wa Mũndũ nĩegũkunyanĩrwo kũrĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene na kũrĩ arutani a watho. Nao mamũtuĩre kũũragwo na mamũneane kũrĩ andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ,
34 who will mock Him and spit on Him and flog Him and kill Him. And after three days He will rise again.”
nao mamũnyũrũrie na mamũtuĩre mata, na mamũhũũre iboko o na mamũũrage. No thuutha wa mĩthenya ĩtatũ nĩakariũka.”
35 Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to Jesus and declared, “Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask.”
Na rĩrĩ, Jakubu na Johana, ariũ a Zebedi, magĩũka kũrĩ Jesũ. Makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũrutani, tũkwenda ũtwĩkĩre o ũrĩa tũgũkũhooya.”
36 “What do you want Me to do for you?” He inquired.
Nake akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũkwenda ndĩmwĩkĩre atĩa?”
37 They answered, “Grant that one of us may sit at Your right hand and the other at Your left in Your glory.”
Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ũtwĩtĩkĩrie tũgaikara ũmwe guoko-inĩ gwaku kwa ũrĩo na ũrĩa ũngĩ guoko-inĩ gwaku kwa ũmotho riiri-inĩ waku.”
38 “You do not know what you are asking,” Jesus replied. “Can you drink the cup I will drink, or be baptized with the baptism I will undergo?”
Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Mũtiũĩ kĩrĩa mũrahooya. Mwahota kũnyuĩra gĩkombe kĩrĩa niĩ ngũnyuĩra, kana mũbatithio na ũbatithio ũrĩa ngũbatithio naguo?”
39 “We can,” the brothers answered. “You will drink the cup that I drink,” Jesus said, “and you will be baptized with the baptism that I undergo.
Nao magĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ no tũhote.” Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Gĩkombe kĩrĩa ngũnyuĩra nĩ mũkaanyuĩra, o na mũbatithio na ũbatithio ũrĩa ngũbatithio naguo.
40 But to sit at My right or left is not Mine to grant. These seats belong to those for whom they have been prepared.”
No ha ũhoro wa gũikara guoko-inĩ gwakwa kwa ũrĩo kana kwa ũmotho ti niĩ heanaga. Itĩ icio ikaaheo arĩa mathondekeirwo cio.”
41 When the ten heard about this, they became indignant with James and John.
Rĩrĩa arutwo acio angĩ ikũmi maiguire ũhoro ũcio, makĩrakarĩra Jakubu na Johana.
42 So Jesus called them together and said, “You know that those regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their superiors exercise authority over them.
Nake Jesũ akĩmeeta hamwe akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Nĩ mũũĩ atĩ andũ arĩa matuuagwo aathani a andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ nĩmetũũgagĩria igũrũ rĩao, nao anene ao nĩmamaathaga.
43 But it shall not be this way among you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,
No rĩrĩ, inyuĩ mũtitariĩ ũguo. Handũ ha ũguo, ũrĩa wothe ũngĩenda gũtuĩka mũnene thĩinĩ wanyu no nginya atuĩke ndungata yanyu,
44 and whoever wants to be first must be the slave of all.
nake ũrĩa wothe ũkwenda gũtuĩka wa mbere thĩinĩ wanyu, no nginya atuĩke ngombo ya andũ othe.
45 For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.”
Nĩgũkorwo o na Mũrũ wa Mũndũ ndookire gũtungatĩrwo, no ookire gũtungata na arute muoyo wake nĩguo arĩhe thogora wa gũkũũra andũ aingĩ.”
46 Next, they came to Jericho. And as Jesus and His disciples were leaving Jericho with a large crowd, a blind beggar named Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, was sitting beside the road.
Nao magĩkinya Jeriko. Na rĩrĩa Jesũ na arutwo ake, hamwe na kĩrĩndĩ kĩnene moimaga itũũra-inĩ rĩu, mũndũ warĩ mũtumumu wetagwo Baritimayo (ũguo nĩ kuuga mũrũ wa Timayo), aikarĩte thĩ mũkĩra-inĩ wa njĩra akĩhooya thendi.
47 When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”
Na rĩrĩa aiguire atĩ nĩ Jesũ wa Nazarethi, akĩambĩrĩria kwanĩrĩra akiugaga atĩrĩ, “Jesũ, Mũrũ wa Daudi, njiguĩra tha!”
48 Many people admonished him to be silent, but he cried out all the louder, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
Andũ aingĩ makĩmũkaania, makĩmwĩra akire, nowe agĩkĩrĩrĩria kwanĩrĩra, akiugaga atĩrĩ, “Mũrũ wa Daudi, njiguĩra tha!”
49 Jesus stopped and said, “Call him.” So they called the blind man. “Take courage!” they said. “Get up! He is calling for you.”
Nake Jesũ akĩrũgama, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mwĩtei.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩĩta mũndũ ũcio warĩ mũtumumu, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wĩyũmĩrĩrie! Rũgama! Nĩaragwĩta.”
50 Throwing off his cloak, Bartimaeus jumped up and came to Jesus.
Agĩteania nguo yake ya igũrũ, agĩũkĩra na ihenya agĩthiĩ harĩ Jesũ.
51 “What do you want Me to do for you?” Jesus asked. “Rabboni,” said the blind man, “let me see again.”
Jesũ akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũkwenda ngwĩkĩre atĩa?” Nake mũndũ ũcio warĩ mũtumumu akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mũrutani, ngwenda o njooke kuona.”
52 “Go,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you.” And immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus along the road.
Nake Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wĩthiĩre, wĩtĩkio waku nĩguo watũma ũhone.” O rĩmwe akĩambĩrĩria kuona, nake akĩrũmĩrĩra Jesũ.
