Mark 8
1 In those days, there being again a great crowd, and they having nothing that they could eat, having called his disciples to [him], he says to them,
Mʼmasiku amenewo gulu lina lalikulu la anthu linasonkhana. Popeza iwo analibe chakudya, Yesu anayitana ophunzira ake nati kwa iwo,
2 I have compassion on the crowd, because they have stayed with me already three days and they have not anything they can eat,
“Ndili ndi chifundo ndi anthu awa; akhala ali ndi Ine masiku atatuwa ndipo alibe chakudya.
3 and if I should dismiss them to their home fasting, they will faint on the way; for some of them are come from far.
Ngati nditawawuza kuti apite kwawo ali ndi njala, iwo adzakomoka mʼnjira chifukwa ena a iwo achokera kutali.”
4 And his disciples answered him, Whence shall one be able to satisfy these with bread here in a desert place?
Ophunzira ake anayankha nati, “Kodi ndi kuti kuthengo kuno kumene munthu angapeze buledi okwanira kuwadyetsa?”
5 And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.
Yesu anafunsa kuti, “Muli ndi malofu a buledi angati?” Iwo anayankha kuti, “Asanu ndi awiri.”
6 And he commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground. And having taken the seven loaves, he gave thanks, and broke [them] and gave [them] to his disciples, that they might set [them] before [them]; and they set [them] before the crowd.
Iye anawuza gulu la anthu kuti likhale pansi. Atatenga malofu a buledi asanu ndi awiri, anayamika, nawanyema ndipo anapatsa ophunzira ake kuti agawire anthu, ndipo iwo anatero.
7 And they had a few small fishes, and having blessed them, he desired these also to be set before [them].
Analinso ndi tinsomba tochepa; Iye anayamikanso chifukwa cha nsombazo. Ndipo anawuza ophunzira kuti awagawire.
8 And they ate and were satisfied. And they took up of fragments that remained seven baskets.
Anthu anadya ndipo anakhuta. Atamaliza, ophunzira anatola buledi ndi nsomba zotsalira ndi kudzaza madengu asanu ndi awiri.
9 And they [that had eaten] were about four thousand; and he sent them away.
Panali amuna pafupifupi 4,000. Ndipo atawawuza kuti apite kwawo,
10 And immediately going on board ship with his disciples, he came into the parts of Dalmanutha.
analowa mʼbwato pamodzi ndi ophunzira ake napita ku dera la Dalamanuta.
11 And the Pharisees went out and began to dispute against him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, tempting him.
Afarisi anabwera nayamba kumufunsa Yesu. Pomuyesa Iye, anamufunsa za chizindikiro chochokera kumwamba.
12 And groaning in his spirit, he says, Why does this generation seek a sign? Verily I say unto you, A sign shall in no wise be given to this generation.
Ndipo anatsitsa moyo nati, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani mʼbado uno ukufuna chizindikiro chodabwitsa? Zoonadi, ndikuwuzani kuti palibe chizindikiro chidzapatsidwa kwa iwo.”
13 And he left them, and going again on board ship, went away to the other side.
Ndipo anawasiya, nalowanso mʼbwato ndi kuwolokera tsidya lina.
14 And they forgot to take bread, and save one loaf, they had not [any] with them in the ship.
Ophunzira anayiwala kutenga buledi, kupatula buledi mmodzi yekha amene anali naye mʼbwato.
15 And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and [of] the leaven of Herod.
Yesu anawachenjeza kuti, “Samalani ndipo onetsetsani yisiti wa Afarisi ndi wa Herode.”
16 And they reasoned with one another, [saying], It is because we have no bread.
Iwo anakambirana wina ndi mnzake ndipo anati, “Ndi chifukwa choti tilibe buledi.”
17 And Jesus knowing [it], says to them, Why reason ye because ye have no bread? Do ye not yet perceive nor understand? Have ye your heart [yet] hardened?
Yesu atadziwa zokambirana zawo anawafunsa kuti, “Nʼchifukwa chiyani mukukambirana kuti mulibe buledi? Kodi inu simukuonabe kapena kuzindikira? Kodi mitima yanu ndi yowumitsidwa?
18 Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember?
Kodi muli ndi maso ndipo simukuona, ndi makutu ndipo mukulephera kumva? Kodi simukukumbukira?
19 When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many hand-baskets full of fragments took ye up? They say to him, Twelve.
Pamene ndinagawa malofu asanu a buledi kwa anthu 5,000, ndi madengu angati amene munatoleramo buledi ndi nsomba zotsalira?” Iwo anayankha kuti, “Khumi ndi awiri.”
20 And when the seven for the four thousand, the filling of how many baskets of fragments took ye up? And they said, Seven.
“Ndipo pamene ndinagawa malofu asanu ndi awiri a buledi, kwa anthu 4,000, ndi madengu angati amene munatoleramo buledi ndi nsomba zotsalira?” Iwo anayankha kuti, “Asanu ndi awiri.”
21 And he said to them, How do ye not yet understand?
Iye anawafunsa kuti, “Kodi simumvetsetsabe?”
22 And he comes to Bethsaida; and they bring him a blind man, and beseech him that he might touch him.
Iwo anafika ku Betisaida, ndipo anthu ena anabweretsa munthu wosaona ndipo anamupempha Yesu kuti amukhudze.
23 And taking hold of the hand of the blind man he led him forth out of the village, and having spit upon his eyes, he laid his hands upon him, and asked him if he beheld anything.
Iye anagwira dzanja la munthu wosaonayo napita naye kunja kwa mudzi. Atalavulira mʼmaso a munthuyo ndi kumusanjika manja, Yesu anafunsa kuti, “Kodi ukuona kalikonse?”
24 And having looked up, he said, I behold men, for I see [them], as trees, walking.
Iye anakweza maso nati, “Ndikuona anthu; akuoneka ngati mitengo imene ikuyendayenda.”
25 Then he laid his hands again upon his eyes, and he saw distinctly, and was restored and saw all things clearly.
Kenakanso Yesu anayika manja ake mʼmaso a munthuyo. Ndipo maso ake anatsekuka, naonanso, ndipo anaona zonse bwinobwino.
26 And he sent him to his house, saying, Neither enter into the village, nor tell [it] to any one in the village.
Yesu anamuwuza kuti apite kwawo nati, “Usapite mʼmudzimo.”
27 And Jesus went forth and his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea-Philippi. And by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Who do men say that I am?
Yesu ndi ophunzira ake anapita ku midzi yozungulira Kaisareya wa Filipo. Ali panjira, Iye anawafunsa kuti, “Kodi anthu amati ndine yani?”
28 And they answered him, saying, John the baptist; and others, Elias; but others, One of the prophets.
Iwo anayankha kuti, “Ena amati Yohane Mʼbatizi; ena amati Eliya; ndipo enanso amati ndinu mmodzi wa aneneri.”
29 And he asked them, But ye, who do ye say that I am? And Peter answering says to him, Thou art the Christ.
Iye anafunsa kuti, “Koma nanga inu, mumati ndine yani?” Petro anayankha kuti, “Inu ndinu Khristu.”
30 And he charged them straitly, in order that they should tell no man about him.
Yesu anawachenjeza kuti asawuze wina aliyense za Iye.
31 And he began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and of the chief priests and of the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise [again].
Iye anayamba kuwaphunzitsa kuti, “Mwana wa Munthu ayenera kumva zowawa zambiri ndi kukanidwa ndi akulu a ansembe, ndi aphunzitsi a malamulo, ndi kuti ayenera kuphedwa ndipo patatha masiku atatu adzaukanso.”
32 And he spoke the thing openly. And Peter, taking him to [him], began to rebuke him.
Izi anaziyankhula momveka bwino, ndipo Petro anamutengera pambali ndipo anayamba kumudzudzula.
33 But he, turning round and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, saying, Get away behind me, Satan, for thy mind is not on the things that are of God, but on the things that are of men.
Koma Yesu atatembenuka ndi kuyangʼana ophunzira ake, anamudzudzula Petro nati, “Choka pamaso panga Satana! Suganizira zinthu za Mulungu koma za anthu.”
34 And having called the crowd with his disciples, he said to them, Whoever desires to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow me.
Kenaka anayitana gulu la anthu pamodzi ndi ophunzira ake nati: “Ngati wina aliyense afuna kunditsata Ine, ayenera kudzikana yekha ndi kunyamula mtanda wake ndi kunditsata.
35 For whosoever shall desire to save his life shall lose it, but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's shall save it.
Pakuti aliyense amene afuna kupulumutsa moyo wake adzawutaya, koma aliyense amene ataya moyo wake chifukwa cha Ine ndi cha Uthenga Wabwino, adzawupulumutsa.
36 For what shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and suffer the loss of his soul?
Kodi munthu adzapindulanji akalandira dziko lonse lapansi, koma ndi kutaya moyo wake?
37 for what should a man give in exchange for his soul?
Kapena nʼchiyani chomwe munthu angapereke chosinthana ndi moyo wake?
38 For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him shall the Son of man also be ashamed when he shall come in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.
Ngati wina achita manyazi chifukwa cha Ine ndi mawu anga mu mʼbado uno wachigololo ndi wochimwa, Mwana wa Munthu adzachita naye manyazi pamene adzabwera mu ulemerero wa Atate ake pamodzi ndi angelo oyera.”
