Matthew 12
1 Around that time Jesus was walking through fields of grain on the Sabbath day. His disciples were hungry so they started to pick ears of grain and eat them.
Hessafe guye, Sambbaata gallas, Yesuusi gade giddora aadhdhees. Yesuusa tamaareti koshattida gisho tiya bangga shirikidi moosona.
2 When the Pharisees saw this they said to Jesus, “Look at your disciples—they're doing what isn't allowed on the Sabbath!”
Shin Farisaaweti hessa be7idi Yesuusakko, “Hekko, ne tamaareti Sambbaata gallas oothanaw bessonnabaa oothoosona” yaagidosona.
3 But Jesus told them, “Haven't you read what David did when he and his men were hungry?
Yesuusi enttako zaaridi, “Dawitey koshattida wode Iyara de7eyssatara ay oothidaakko nabbabibeekketii?
4 He went into the house of God, and he and his men ate the sacred bread that they weren't allowed to eat since it's only for the priests.
Dawitey Xoossaa keethi gelidi kahineta xalaalappe attin inne iyara de7eyssatas bessonna geeshsha daabbuwa mis.
5 Haven't you read in the law that on the Sabbath day the priests in the Temple break the Sabbath but are not considered guilty?
Woykko kahineti Sambbaata wogaa shaaridi Xoossa Keethan Sambbaata gallas ooso oothiko enttaw bala gidonnayssa Muse higgiyan nabbabibeekketii?
6 However, I tell you that someone is here who is greater than the Temple!
Shin si7ite! Xoossa Keethaafe aadhdhey hayssan de7ees.
7 If you'd known the meaning of this Scripture, ‘I want mercy, and not sacrifice,’ you wouldn't have condemned an innocent man.
‘Taani hintte yarshshuwa gidonnashin hintte harata maarana mela koyays’ giya qaalay woy guusseeko hintte eridaakko xillo asa bolla pirddeketa.
8 For the Son of man is Lord of the Sabbath.”
Asa Na7ay Sambbaata Godaa” yaagis.
9 Then Jesus left and went into their synagogue.
Yesuusi yaappe bidi Ayhude Woosa Keethi gelis.
10 A man was there with a crippled hand. “Does the law allow healing on the Sabbath?” they asked him, looking for a reason to accuse him.
Yan kushey gunddida issi uray de7ees. Yesuusa mootanaw gaaso koyaa asati, “Sambbaata gallas pathanaw bessi bessennee?” yaagidi oychchidosona.
11 “Suppose you have a sheep and it falls into a hole in the ground on the Sabbath. Don't you grab hold of it and pull it out?” Jesus asked them.
I enttako, “Hintte giddofe issuwas dorssi Sambbaata gallas aafon wulliko, goochchidi kessonnay oonee?
12 “Don't you think a human being is worth much more than a sheep? So yes, you are allowed to do good on the Sabbath.”
Yaatin asi dorssafe waanidi daro aadhdhenee? Hessa gisho, Sambbaata gallas lo77obaa oosoy bessees” yaagis.
13 Then he said to the man, “Hold out your hand.” The man held out his hand, and it was healed, just as healthy as the other hand.
Hessafe guye, Yesuusi addiyako, “Ne kushiya piddi ootha” yaagin, uray piddi oothis. Iya kushey paxidi hankko kushiyada hanis.
14 But the Pharisees went out and plotted how to kill Jesus.
Shin Farisaaweti yaappe kare keyidi, Yesuusa waati wodhaneekko maqettidosona.
15 Knowing this, Jesus left, with large crowds following him. He healed all of them,
Yesuusi entta qofaa eridi he bessaa aggidi hara soo bis. Daro asay iya kaallidi bidosona, hargganchchota ubbaa pathis.
16 but instructed them not to tell people who he was.
Yesuusi, “Tabaa hara oodeskka odoppite” yaagidi minthi odis.
17 This fulfilled what Isaiah the prophet said:
Hessika nabiya Isayaasi,
18 “This is my servant whom I've chosen, The one I love, who pleases me. I will put my Spirit on him, And he will tell the foreigners what's right.
“Hekko ta doorida aylley, ta doseyssi, tana ufaysseyssi, taani ta ayyaanaa, iya bolla shemppisana; I, Ayhude gidonna deriyas suure pirddabaa awaajjana.
19 He won't argue, he won't shout out, And nobody will hear his voice in the streets.
I palamenna woykko kaccenna; ba qaalakka denbban coo sissenna.
20 He won't break a damaged reed, And he won't extinguish a smoking wick, Until he has proved that his judgment is right,
Suure pirddan xoono demmana gakkanaw, dinccettida maqqaa menthenna, cuyiya muqaadaa toysenna.
21 And foreigners will put their hope in him.”
Ayhude gidonna derey ubbay iyan ufayssi wothana” yaagidi xaafidayssi polettana melassa.
22 Then a man was brought to Jesus who was demon-possessed and blind and dumb. Jesus healed him, so that the dumb man could speak and see.
Hessafe guye, tuna ayyaanan oykettida qooqenne muume ase de7eyssa iyaakko ehidosona. Yesuusi uraa pathin, uray be7isinne odettis.
23 All the crowds were amazed, and asked, “Could this really be the son of David?”
Asa ubbay malaalettidi, “Hayssi Dawite Na7aa gidanddeshshaa?” yaagidosona.
24 But when the Pharisees heard this, they replied, “This man can only throw out demons through the power of Beelzebub, the chief of demons!”
Shin Farisaaweti hessa si7idi, “Ha uray tuna ayyaanata kessey tuna ayyaanata halaqaa Bi7elzebuula wolqqaana” yaagidosona.
25 Knowing what they were thinking, Jesus told them, “Any kingdom that is divided against itself will be destroyed. No town or household that is divided against itself can stand.
Yesuusi entta qofaa eridi, “Woli giddon shaakettiya kawotetha ubbay kunddana; qassi woli giddon shaakettiya katamay woykko keethay minnidi eqqenna.
26 If Satan drives out Satan, then he's divided against himself—so how could his kingdom stand?
Xalahey Xalahe kessiyabaa gidikko ba giddon shaakettis guussu. Hessatho haniyabaa gidikko iya kawotethay waanidi minnidi eqqanaw dandda7ii?
27 If I'm throwing out demons in the name of Beelzebub, in whose name are your people throwing out demons? Your own people prove you're wrong!
Taani tuna ayyaana kessey Bi7elzebuula wolqqan gidikko hinttena kaalliya asati oode wolqqan kessannee? Hessa gisho, hinttena kaalliya asati hinttena pirddana.
28 But if I'm throwing out demons through the power of the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come to you!
Shin taani tuna ayyaanata kessey Xoossaa Ayyaanan gidikko, Xoossaa kawotethay hintteko yis.
29 Can you enter a strong man's house and take his belongings unless you tie him up first? If you do that then you can take everything in his house.
“Woykko issi asi wolqqaama asa soo gelidi iya shaluwa bonqanaw koykko koyrottidi he uraa qachchonna ixxiko waattidi dandda7ii? Yaatikko iya shaluwa bonqanaw dandda7ees.
30 Those who are not with me are against me, and those who do not gather together with me do the opposite: they are scattering.
“Taara gidonnay oonikka taara eqettees; qassi taara issife shiishonna ubbay laallees.
31 That's why I'm telling you that every sin and blasphemy you commit will be forgiven, except blasphemy against the Spirit which won't be forgiven.
Hessa gisho, si7ite; asay oothiya ay nagarinne cashsha qaali ubbay atto geetettana, shin Geeshsha Ayyaana cayaa oodeskka iya nagaray atto geetettenna.
32 Those who say something against the Son of man will be forgiven, but those who say something against the Holy Spirit won't be forgiven, neither in this life nor the next. (aiōn g165)
Oonikka Asa Na7a bolla iitabaa odettiko iyaw atto geetettana, shin Geeshsha Ayyaana bolla iitabaa odettiya oodeskka ha sa7an gidin yaana alamiyan iya nagaray atto geetettenna. (aiōn g165)
33 Either decide that the tree is good, and its fruit is good, or decide that the tree is bad and its fruit is bad—for the tree is known by its fruit.
“Lo77o mithay lo77o ayfe ayfees; qassi iita mithay iita ayfees. Hiza, mithay erettey ba ayfiyaana.
34 You viper's brood, how can you who are evil say anything good? For your mouth simply says what your mind is busy thinking about.
Hinttenoo, shoosha nayto, hintte iita gidishe waanidi lo77obaa odettanaw dandda7etii? Asi ba wozanan kumidabaappe doonan odettees.
35 A good person brings out good from their store of good things, and an evil person brings out evil from their store of evil things.
Lo77o asi ba wozanan wothida lo77obaappe, lo77obaa kessees; iita asi ba wozanan wothida iitabaappe, iitabaa kessees.
36 I tell you, people will have to account for every careless thing they say on the Day of Judgment.
Shin si7ite, asay odettiya coo oda ubbaas pirdda gallas zaaro immana.
37 For what you say will either vindicate you or condemn you.”
Ays giikko, ne odettiya ne qaalan xillana; ne odettiya ne qaalay ne bolla pirddana” yaagis.
38 Then some of the religious teachers and Pharisees came to him and said, “Teacher, we want you to show us a miraculous sign.”
Hessafe guye, issi issi Farisaawetinne higge asttamaareti Yesuusakko, “Asttamaariyaw, neeni malaata oothada nuna bessa” yaagidosona.
39 “Evil people who don't trust in God are the ones who look for a miraculous sign. The only sign they will be given is the sign of the prophet Jonah,” Jesus told them.
Shin Yesuusi zaaridi, “Ammanettonnanne iita yeletethay malaata koyees. Shin nabiya Yoonasa malaatappe hara malaati iyaw imettena.
40 “In the same way Jonah was in the belly of a huge fish for three days and three nights, the Son of man will lie in the earth for three days and three nights.
Yoonasi gita molo ulon heedzu gallasinne heedzu qamma gam77idayssa mela Asa Na7ay heedzu gallasinne heedzu qamma biitta garssan gam77ana.
41 The people of Nineveh will rise in the judgment together with this generation and they will condemn it because they repented in response to Jonah's message—and as you see, there's someone greater than Jonah here!
Nanawe asay pirdda gallas denddidi ha yeletethaa bolla pirddana; ays giikko, entti Yoonasa sibkkatiya si7idi bantta nagaraappe simmidosona. Hekko, Yoonasappe aadhdheyssi hayssan de7ees.
42 The Queen of the South will be raised in the judgment together with this generation and will condemn it because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon—and as you see, there's someone greater than Solomon here!
Pirdda gallas dugeha kawiya denddada ha yeletethaa bolla pirddana; ays giikko, iya Solomone cinccatethaa si7anaw biittaa gaxappe yasu. Hekko, Solomoneppe aadhdhey hayssan de7ees.
43 When an evil spirit leaves someone, it wanders through deserted places looking for rest, and finds nowhere to stay.
“Tuna ayyaanay asappe keyidaappe guye baw shemppiyaso koyidi haathi baynna mela bessan daaburees, shin ba koyaa shemppuwa demmenna.
44 So it says, ‘I'll go back to the place I left,’ and when it returns it finds the place empty, all clean and tidy.
Yaanin, ‘Ta agga keyida keetha simmada baana’ yaagees. I simmiya wode keethay kaysi gideyssanne pitettidinne giigi uttidayssa demmees.
45 Then it goes and brings back seven other spirits even more evil than it is, and it enters and lives there. So the person ends up worse than they were at the beginning. That's the way it will be with this evil generation.”
Hiza, simmi bidi, baappe iitiya hara laappun iita ayyaanata ekkidi yees; enttika uraa giddo gelidi de7oosona. He uraas kaseyssafe guyeyssi daro iitees. Ha iita yeletethaa bolla hessa mela hanana” yaagis.
46 While he was speaking to the crowds, his mother and his brothers arrived and stood outside, wanting to talk to him.
Yesuusi deriyas oda bolla de7ishin iya aayiyanne iya ishati iya odisanaw koyidi karen eqqidosona.
47 Someone came and told him, “Look, your mother and brothers are outside, wanting to talk to you.”
Issi asi iyaakko, “Ne aayiyanne ne ishati nena odisanaw koyidi karen eqqidosona” yaagis.
48 “Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?” Jesus asked.
Yesuusi zaaridi, “Ta aayiya oonee? Ta ishatikka oonantee?” yaagis.
49 He pointed at his disciples, and said, “Look, they are my mother and my brothers!
Ba kushiyara tamaareta mallishe, “Be7ite, ta aayanne ta ishati hayssata.
50 For those who do the will of my heavenly Father, they are my brother, sister, and mother!”
Salon de7iya ta Aawa sheniya oothiya ubbay ta isha, ta michchonne ta aayo” yaagis.
