< Mark 2 >

1 A few days later Jesus returned home to Capernaum, and news spread that he was there.
Lẹ́yìn ọjọ́ mélòó kan, nígbà tí Jesu tún padà wọ Kapernaumu, òkìkí kàn pé ó ti wà nínú ilé.
2 So many people crowded inside the house that it was packed, even outside the door, as Jesus told them the message.
Láìpẹ́, ogunlọ́gọ̀ ènìyàn ti kún ilé tí ó dé sí tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí inú ilé àti ẹ̀yìn ìlẹ̀kùn ní ìta kò gba ẹyọ ẹnìkan mọ́, ó sì wàásù ọ̀rọ̀ náà sí wọn.
3 Four men had brought a man who was paralyzed,
Àwọn ọkùnrin kan wá, wọ́n gbé arọ tọ̀ ọ́ wá, ẹni tí ọkùnrin mẹ́rin gbé.
4 but they could not get near Jesus because of the crowds. So they went up on the roof and took it apart. After they had made an opening above Jesus, they lowered down the mat with the paralyzed man lying on it.
Nígbà tí wọn kò sì le dé ọ̀dọ̀ Jesu, nítorí ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn, wọ́n dá òrùlé ilé lu ní ọ̀gangan ibi tí Jesu wà. Wọ́n sì sọ ọkùnrin arọ náà kalẹ̀ ti òun ti àkéte rẹ̀ níwájú Jesu.
5 When Jesus saw the trust these men had, Jesus said to the paralyzed man, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”
Nígbà tí Jesu sì rí ìgbàgbọ́ wọn, ó sọ fún arọ náà pé, “Ọmọ, a dárí gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ jì ọ́.”
6 Some of the religious teachers sitting there thought to themselves,
Ṣùgbọ́n díẹ̀ nínú àwọn olùkọ́ òfin tó jókòó níbẹ̀ sọ fún ara wọn pé,
7 “Why is he talking like this? He is blaspheming! Who can forgive sins? Only God can do that!”
“Èéṣe ti ọkùnrin yìí fi sọ̀rọ̀ báyìí? Ó ń sọ̀rọ̀-òdì. Ta ni ó lè darí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ji ni bí ko ṣe Ọlọ́run nìkan?”
8 Jesus knew right away what they were thinking. He said to them, “Why are you thinking like this?
Lójúkan náà bí Jesu tí wòye nínú ọkàn rẹ̀ pé wọn ń gbèrò bẹ́ẹ̀ ní àárín ara wọn, ó wí fún wọn pé, “Èéṣe tí ẹ̀yìn fi ń ro nǹkan wọ̀nyí nínú ọkàn yín?
9 What's easier: to say to the paralyzed man, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or ‘Get up, pick up your mat, and walk’?
Èwo ni ó rọrùn jù láti wí fún arọ náà pé, ‘A dárí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀ jì ọ,’ tàbí wí pé, ‘Dìde sì gbé àkéte rẹ, kí o sì máa rìn?’
10 But to convince you that the Son of man has the right to forgive sins,
Ṣùgbọ́n kí ẹ lè mọ̀ pé Ọmọ Ènìyàn ní agbára ní ayé láti dárí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀ ji ni.” Ó wí fún ọkùnrin arọ náà pé,
11 I say to you (the paralyzed man), ‘Get up, pick up your mat, and go home.’”
“Mo wí fún ọ, dìde, gbé àkéte rẹ kí ó sì máa lọ ilé rẹ.”
12 He stood up, picked up his mat, and walked out in front of everyone there. They were all amazed, and praised God, saying “We've never ever seen anything like this!”
Lójúkan náà, ọkùnrin náà fò sókè fún ayọ̀. Ó gbé àkéte rẹ̀. Ó sì jáde lọ lójú gbogbo wọn. Èyí sì ya gbogbo wọn lẹ́nu tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí wọ́n sì yin Ọlọ́run lógo wí pé, “Àwa kò rí irú èyí rí!”
13 Jesus went out beside the sea once more and taught the crowds that came to him.
Nígbà náà, Jesu tún jáde lọ sí etí Òkun. Ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn sì tọ̀ ọ́ wá, ó sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní kọ́ wọn.
14 As he walked along, he saw Levi son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax-collector's booth. “Follow me,” Jesus told him. Levi got up and followed Jesus.
Bí ó ti ń rin etí Òkun lọ sókè, ó rí Lefi ọmọ Alfeu tí ó jókòó nínú àgọ́ níbi tí ó ti ń gba owó orí, Jesu sì wí fún un pé, “Tẹ̀lé mi,” Lefi dìde, ó sì ń tẹ̀lé e.
15 That evening Jesus ate dinner at Levi's house. Many tax collectors and “sinners” joined Jesus and his disciples for the meal, for there were many of these people that followed Jesus.
Ó sì ṣe, bí ó sì ti jókòó ti oúnjẹ ni ilé Lefi, ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn agbowó òde àti ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ wá bá Jesu jókòó pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀, nítorí tiwọn pọ̀ tiwọn tẹ̀lé e.
16 When the religious leaders of the Pharisees saw Jesus eating with such people, they asked Jesus' disciples, “Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?”
Nígbà tí àwọn olùkọ́ òfin àti àwọn Farisi rí ì tí ó ń bá àwọn agbowó òde àti àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ jẹun, wọn wí fún àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ pé, “Èétirí tí ó fi ń bá àwọn agbowó òde àti ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ jẹun?”
17 When Jesus heard this, he told them, “It's not healthy people who need a doctor, but those who are sick. I haven't come to invite those who live right, but those who don't—the sinners.”
Nígbà tí Jesu gbọ́, ó sọ fún wọn wí pé, “Àwọn tí ara wọ́n dá kò wa oníṣègùn, bí ko ṣe àwọn tí ara wọn kò dá. Èmi kò wá láti sọ fún àwọn ènìyàn rere láti ronúpìwàdà, bí kò ṣe àwọn ènìyàn ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀.”
18 Now John's disciples and the Pharisees were fasting. Some of them came to Jesus, and asked him, “Why is it that John's disciples and the Pharisees fast, but your disciples don't?”
Àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn Johanu àti àwọn Farisi a máa gbààwẹ̀. Àwọn ènìyàn kan sì wá, wọ́n sì bi í pé, “Èéṣe tí àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn Johanu àti àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn Farisi fi ń gbààwẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ kò gbààwẹ̀?”
19 “Do wedding guests fast while the bridegroom is with them?” Jesus asked them. “No. While the bridegroom's with them, they can't fast.
Jesu dáhùn wí pé, “Báwo ni àwọn àlejò ọkọ ìyàwó yóò ṣe máa gbààwẹ̀ nígbà tí ọkọ ìyàwó ṣì wà lọ́dọ̀ wọn?
20 But the day is coming when the bridegroom will be taken from them, and then they'll fast.
Ṣùgbọ́n láìpẹ́ ọjọ́, a ó gba ọkọ ìyàwó kúrò lọ́dọ̀ wọn. Nígbà náà wọn yóò gbààwẹ̀ ni ọjọ́ wọ̀nyí.”
21 No one puts a patch that's not shrunk on old clothes. Otherwise the new piece will shrink away from the old, and make the tear worse.
“Kò sí ẹni tí ń fi ìrépé aṣọ tuntun lẹ ògbólógbòó ẹ̀wù, bí ó ba ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, èyí tuntun tí a fi lẹ̀ ẹ́ yóò fàya kúrò lára ògbólógbòó, yíya rẹ̀ yóò sí burú púpọ̀ jù.
22 No one puts new wine in old wineskins. Otherwise the wine will burst the wineskins, and both the wine and wineskins will be wasted. No. You put new wine in new wineskins.”
Kò sì sí ẹni tí ń fi ọtí wáìnì tuntun sínú ìgò wáìnì ògbólógbòó. Bí a bá ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, ọtí wáìnì náà yóò fa ìgò náà ya, ọtí wáìnì a sì dàànù, bákan náà ni ìgò náà, ṣùgbọ́n ọtí wáìnì tuntun ni a n fi sínú ìgò wáìnì tuntun.”
23 One Sabbath day as Jesus was walking through the grain fields, his disciples started picking heads of grain as they walked along.
Ó sì ṣe ni ọjọ́ ìsinmi, bí Jesu àti àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ ti ń kọjá lọ láàrín oko ọkà, àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í ya ìpẹ́ ọkà.
24 The Pharisees asked Jesus, “Look, why are they doing what is not permitted on the Sabbath?”
Díẹ̀ nínú àwọn Farisi wí fún Jesu pé, “Wò ó, èéṣe tiwọn fi ń ṣe èyí ti kò yẹ ni ọjọ́ ìsinmi.”
25 “Haven't you ever read what David did when he and his men were hungry and in need?” Jesus asked them.
Ó dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Ẹ̀yin kò ti ka ohun tí Dafidi ṣe, nígbà tí ó ṣe aláìní, tí ebi sì ń pa á, òun àti àwọn tí ó wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀?
26 “He went into God's house when Abiathar was high priest, and ate the consecrated bread which no one except the priests are permitted to eat, and gave it to his men too.”
Bí ó tí wọ ilé Ọlọ́run lọ ni ọjọ́ Abiatari olórí àlùfáà, tí ó sì jẹ àkàrà ìfihàn ti kò tọ́ fún un láti jẹ bí kò ṣe fún àwọn àlùfáà, ó sì tún fi fún àwọn tí ń bẹ lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀.”
27 “The Sabbath was made for your benefit, not for you to benefit the Sabbath,” he told them.
Ó sì wí fún wọ́n pé, a dá ọjọ́ ìsinmi fún ènìyàn, “Ṣùgbọ́n a kò dá ènìyàn fún ọjọ́ ìsinmi.
28 “So the Son of man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”
Nítorí náà Ọmọ Ènìyàn ni Olúwa ọjọ́ ìsinmi pẹ̀lú.”
