< Mark 10 >
1 Then He set out from there and came into the borders of Judea, by way of the other side of the Jordan. Again, crowds gathered to Him, and as was His custom, He began to teach them once more.
Ọ hapụrụ ebe ahụ gaa nʼobodo ndị dị na mpaghara Judịa ma gafeekwa nʼofe Jọdan. Igwe mmadụ bịakwutekwara ya, ọzọ, dị ka o si emekwa, o ziri ha ihe.
2 Then some Pharisees approached to test Him and asked Him, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce a wife?”
Ụfọdụ ndị Farisii bịara, ma nʼihi ị nwalee ya, ha jụrụ ya sị, “O ziri ezi nʼiwu ka nwoke gbaa nwunye ya alụkwaghị m?”
3 So in answer He said to them, “What did Moses command you?”
Ma ọ zara ha sị, “Gịnị ka Mosis nyere unu nʼiwu?”
4 They said, “Moses permitted one to write a certificate of divorce and to put away.”
Ha sịrị, “Mosis kwenyere ka nwoke dee asambodo alụkwaghị m, nye nwunye ya ma zilaga ya.”
5 Jesus answered and said to them: “It was due to your hardness of heart that he wrote you this precept.
Jisọs sịrị ha, “Ọ bụ nʼihi na obi unu siri ike nke ukwuu ka o ji deere unu iwu a.
6 But from the beginning of creation, God made them a male and a female.
Ma na mmalite nke okike ụwa, Chineke ‘kere ha nwoke na nwanyị.’
7 ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife,
‘Nʼihi nke a ka nwoke ga-eji hapụ nne ya na nna ya e jikọta ya na nwunye ya.
8 and the two will be turned into one flesh.’ So then, they are no longer two but one flesh.
Ha abụọ ga-abụ otu anụ ahụ.’Ya mere, ha abụkwaghị mmadụ abụọ ọzọ, kama otu anụ ahụ.
9 Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.”
Ya mere, ihe Chineke jikọtara, ka mmadụ ọbụla atọsala ya.”
10 When they were in the house again, His disciples asked Him about the same subject.
Mgbe ha banyere nʼụlọ, ndị na-eso ụzọ ya jụrụ ya ọzọ ihe banyere okwu a.
11 So He said to them, “Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her;
Ọ sịrị ha, “Onye ọbụla gbara nwunye ya alụkwaghị m ma lụrụ nwanyị ọzọ na-eme mmehie ịkwa iko megide ya.
12 and if a woman divorces her husband and gets married to another, she commits adultery.”
Ma ọ bụrụ na nwanyị ọbụla agbaa dị ya alụkwaghị m ma lụrụ nwoke ọzọ, ọ na-emekwa mmehie ịkwa iko.”
13 People started bringing little children to Him, that He might touch them; so the disciples started rebuking those doing the bringing.
Ndị mmadụ na-ekutere ya ụmụntakịrị ka o metụ ha aka, ma ndị na-eso ụzọ ya baara ha mba.
14 But when Jesus saw it He was indignant and said to them: “Let the little children come to me; do not hinder them, because the Kingdom of God is made up of such.
Ma mgbe Jisọs hụrụ nke a, iwe were ya nke ukwuu, ọ sịrị ha, “Hapụnụ ụmụntakịrị ka ha bịakwute m. Unu egbochikwala ha. Nʼihi na alaeze Chineke bụ nke ndị dị otu a.
15 I tell you assuredly, whoever does not receive the Kingdom of God like a little child does will certainly not enter it.”
Nʼeziokwu asị m unu, onye ọbụla nke na-agaghị anabata alaeze Chineke dị ka nwantakịrị agaghị aba nʼime ya.”
16 And taking them in His arms and laying His hands on them, He blessed them.
Mgbe ahụ, o kuuru ha nʼaka ya, bikwasị ha aka ya abụọ ma gọzie ha.
17 As Jesus set out on the road, someone came running up, knelt before Him and asked Him, “Good Teacher, what must I do that I may inherit eternal life?” (aiōnios )
Mgbe ọ na-ebili njem, otu nwoke gbaara ọsọ bịa gbuo ikpere nʼihu ya. Ọ jụrụ ya sị, “Ezi onye ozizi ọma, gịnị ka m ga-eme ka m keta ndụ ebighị ebi?” (aiōnios )
18 So Jesus said to Him: “Why do you call me ‘good’? No one is good except one—God.
Jisọs sịrị ya, “Gịnị mere i ji akpọ m ezi mmadụ? Ọ dịghị onye ọbụla bụ ezi mmadụ ma ọ bụghị naanị Chineke.
19 You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery,’ ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not give false testimony,’ ‘Do not defraud,’ ‘Honor your father and mother.’”
Ị maara ihe niile enyere nʼiwu: ‘Egbula mmadụ, a kwala iko, e zula ohi, a gbala ama ụgha, a ghọgbula mmadụ ibe gị, sọpụrụ nne na nna gị.’”
20 In answer he said to Him, “Teacher, I have kept all these since I was young.”
Ọ sịrị ya, “E, onye ozizi, Edebezuchaala m ha niile siterị na mgbe m bụ nwata.”
21 Then Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him: “One thing you lack; go, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, take up the cross, and follow me.”
Jisọs lere ya anya, hụ ya nʼanya. Mgbe ahụ, ọ gwara ya sị, “Ọ fọdụrụ naanị otu ihe ị ga-eme. Laa, ugbu a, ree ihe niile i nwere, nyekwa ndị ogbenye ego i retara. I mesịa nke a, ị ga-enwe akụ nʼeluigwe. Mgbe ahụ bịaghachi soro m.”
22 But he was dismayed at the suggestion and went away sorrowing, because he had many possessions.
Mgbe ọ nụrụ okwu a, ihu ya gbarụrụ. O sitere nʼebe ahụ pụọ na mwute, nʼihi na ọ bụ ọgaranya nke nwere ọtụtụ akụnụba.
23 Then Jesus looked around and said to His disciples, “How hard it is for those who have riches to get into the Kingdom of God!”
Jisọs legharịrị anya gwa ndị na-eso ụzọ ya sị, “Lee ka o si bụrụ ihe rara ahụ na onye ọgaranya ga-abanye nʼalaeze Chineke.”
24 But the disciples were astounded at His words. So Jesus tried again and said to them: “Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter the Kingdom of God.
Okwu ya tụrụ ndị na-eso ụzọ ya nʼanya, ma Jisọs gwakwara ha ọzọ sị, “Ụmụntakịrị, ọ bụ nnọọ ihe rara ahụ ịbanye nʼalaeze Chineke.
25 It is actually easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God.”
Ọ dịrị ịnyịnya kamel mfe isite nʼanya agịga gafee, karịa onye ọgaranya ịbanye nʼalaeze Chineke.”
26 Then they were totally astonished, saying to each other, “Who then can be saved?”
Okwu a jubigara ha anya oke. Ha jụrịtara ibe ha sị, “Onye kwanụ ka a ga-azọpụta?”
27 But Jesus looked at them and said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God; because all things are possible with God.”
Ma Jisọs lere ha anya sị ha, “Nʼebe mmadụ nọ, ọ bụ ihe rara ahụ. Ma nʼebe Chineke nọ, ihe niile dị mfe. Ọ dịghị ihe rara Chineke ahụ ime.”
28 Then Peter began to say to Him, “So, we have left all and followed you.”
Pita malitere ịgwa ya sị, “Anyị ahapụla ihe niile soro gị!”
29 In answer Jesus said: “I tell you assuredly, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or fields, for my sake and for that of the Gospel,
Jisọs sịrị, “Nʼezie, nʼezie, agwa m unu, ọ dịghị onye ọbụla hapụrụ ụlọ ya, maọbụ ụmụnne ya ndị nwoke, maọbụ ụmụnne ya ndị nwanyị, maọbụ nne ya, maọbụ nna ya, maọbụ ụmụntakịrị ya, maọbụ ala ubi ya nʼihi m, na nʼihi oziọma a,
30 who will not receive a hundred times more, now in this time—houses and brothers and sisters and father and mother and children and fields (with persecutions)—and in the age to come, eternal life. (aiōn , aiōnios )
nke na-agaghị anataghachikwa nʼụwa a, ụlọ, ụmụnne ndị nwoke, ụmụnne ndị nwanyị, nne, ụmụaka na ala ubi, tinyere mkpagbu, ihe ruru okpukpu narị karịa ihe niile nke ọ hapụrụ. Ọ ga-anatakwa ndụ ebighị ebi nʼụwa ọzọ. (aiōn , aiōnios )
31 But many first will be last, and last first.”
Ma ọtụtụ ndị bu ụzọ ga-abụ ndị ikpeazụ, ma ọtụtụ ndị ikpeazụ ga-abụkwa ndị bu ụzọ.”
32 Now they were on the road going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going ahead of them; this surprised them, and as they followed they started to be afraid. Then He took the twelve aside again and began to tell them the things that were about to happen to Him:
Ha nọ nʼụzọ na-aga Jerusalem, ma Jisọs nọ nʼihu ha, nke a juru ndị na-eso ụzọ ya nʼanya. Otu a kwa, ndị mmadụ niile na-abịa ha nʼazụ tụkwara egwu. Ọzọkwa, ọ kpọpụrụ mmadụ iri na abụọ ahụ nʼakụkụ, malite ịgwa ha ihe gaje ịdakwasị ya.
33 “Take note, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of the Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and the scribes; and they will condemn Him to death and deliver Him over to the Gentiles;
Ọ sịrị, “Leenụ, anyị na-aga Jerusalem, ebe a ga-arara Nwa nke Mmadụ nyefee nʼaka ndịisi nchụaja na ndị ozizi iwu. Ha ga-ama ya ikpe ọnwụ, nyefekwa ya nʼaka ndị mba ọzọ.
34 and they will mock Him, and scourge Him, and spit on Him, and kill Him. And on the third day He will rise again.”
Ha ga-akwa ya emo, gbụsakwa ya ọnụ mmiri asụ, pịa ya ihe ma gbukwaa ya. Ma mgbe ụbọchị atọ gasịrị, ọ ga-esite nʼọnwụ bilie.”
35 Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, approached Him and said, “Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we may ask.”
Jemis na Jọn ụmụ Zebedi bịakwutere ya. Ha sịrị ya, “Onye ozizi, anyị chọrọ ka i meere anyị ihe ọbụla anyị rịọrọ.”
36 So He said to them, “What do you want me to do for you?”
Ọ sịrị ha, “Gịnị ka unu chọrọ ka m meere unu?”
37 They said to Him, “Grant to us that we may sit, one at your right and one at your left, in your glory.”
Ha sịrị ya, “Kwere ka otu onye nʼime anyị nọrọ nʼaka nri gị, onye nke ọzọ nʼaka ekpe gị nʼime ebube gị.”
38 But Jesus said to them: “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?”
Ma Jisọs sịrị ha, “Unu amataghị ihe unu na-arịọ. Unu pụrụ ịṅụ iko ahụ mụ onwe m ga-aṅụ maọbụ bụrụ ndị a ga-eme ụdị baptizim a ga-eme m?”
39 They said to Him, “We are able.” So Jesus said to them: “You will indeed drink the cup that I drink, and you will be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with;
Ha zaghachiri ya, “Anyị pụrụ.” Jisọs sịrị ha, “Unu ga-aṅụ iko m ga-aṅụ, a ga-emekwa unu baptizim nke a ga-eme m.
40 but to sit at my right and at my left is not mine to grant, but is for whom it has been prepared.”
Ma ịnọdụ nʼaka nri m maọbụ nʼaka ekpe m abụghị ihe dịrị m inye, kama ọnọdụ ndị a dịịrị ndị a kwadooro ha.”
41 Well when the ten heard it they began to be indignant with James and John.
Mgbe mmadụ iri ndị ọzọ nụrụ nke a, iwe jupụtara ha obi nʼihi Jemis na Jọn.
42 But Jesus summoned them and said to them: “You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.
Ma Jisọs kpọkọtara ha niile sị ha, “Dị ka unu onwe unu maara, ndị eze nke ndị mba ọzọ, na ndị a maara aha ha, na-eji aka ike na-achị ndị nọ nʼokpuru ha.
43 But it must not be so among you, but whoever desires to become great among you must be your servant,
Ma nʼetiti unu ọ gaghị adị otu a. Kama onye ọbụla chọrọ ịdị ukwuu nʼetiti unu ga-abụ onye na-ejere unu ozi.
44 and whoever desires to be your number one must be slave of all.
Onye ọbụla nke chọrọ ịbụ onye mbụ nʼetiti unu, ga-abụ ohu mmadụ niile.
45 For even the Son of the Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.”
Nʼihi na Nwa nke Mmadụ abịaghị ka e jeere ya ozi. Kama ka o jee ozi ma nyekwa ndụ ya ka ọ bụrụ ihe mgbapụta nke ọtụtụ mmadụ.”
46 They came to Jericho. Then as He was going out from Jericho, with His disciples and a large crowd, the blind Bartimaeus (son of Timaeus) was sitting by the roadside begging.
Mgbe ha ruru Jeriko, dị ka Jisọs na ndị na-eso ụzọ ya na ọtụtụ igwe mmadụ sitere nʼobodo Jeriko na-apụ, otu nwoke kpuru ìsì aha ya bụ Batimiọs (aha ya pụtara “nwa nwoke Timiọs”), onye arịrịọ nọdụrụ ala nʼakụkụ ụzọ.
47 And when he heard that it was Jesus the Natsorean, he began to call out and say, “O Son of David, Jesus, have mercy on me!”
Mgbe ọ nụrụ na ọ bụ Jisọs onye Nazaret na-agafe, o bidoro iti mkpu na-asị, “Jisọs, nwa Devid, meere m ebere!”
48 Many started telling him to shut up, but he started calling out even louder, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
Ọtụtụ mmadụ bara ya mba ka o mechie ọnụ. Ma ọ nọgidesịrị ike na-eti mkpu na-asị, “Nwa Devid, meere m ebere!”
49 So Jesus stood still and said to call him. Then they called the blind man, saying to him: “Courage! Get up! He's calling you!”
Jisọs kwụsịrị kwuo sị, “Kpọọnụ ya.” Ya mere ha kpọrọ onye ìsì ahụ, sị ya, “Mesaa ihu gị bilie nʼụkwụ gị, ọ na-akpọ gị.”
50 Tossing off his cloak, he got up and went to Jesus.
Ọ tufuru uwe mwụda ya, wulie nʼụkwụ ya, bịakwute Jisọs.
51 Jesus reacted by saying to him, “What do you want me to do for you?” The blind man said to Him, “Rabouni, that I may see again!”
Jisọs sịrị ya, “Gịnị ka ị chọrọ ka m meere gị?” Onye ìsì ahụ sịrị ya, “Onye ozizi m, achọrọ m ka m hụ ụzọ.”
52 So Jesus said to him, “Go; your faith has healed you.” And immediately he could see, and followed Jesus on the road.
Jisọs sịrị ya, “Laa, okwukwe gị azọpụtala gị.” Nʼotu oge ahụ, o bidoro ịhụ ụzọ, sorokwa ya gawa nʼụzọ ahụ.
