Mark 7
1 Then gathered vnto him the Pharises, and certaine of the Scribes which came from Hierusalem.
Mafarisayo na baadhi ya waandishi ambao walikuwa wametokea Yerusalemu walikusanyika kumzunguka yeye.
2 And when they sawe some of his disciples eate meate with common hands, (that is to say, vnwashen) they complained.
Na waliona kuwa baadhi ya wanafunzi wake walikula mkate kwa mikono najisi; ambayo haikuoshwa.
3 (For the Pharises, and all the Iewes, except they wash their hands oft, eate not, holding the tradition of the Elders.
(kwa Mafarisayo na Wayahudi wote hawali mpaka wameosha mikono yao vizuri; wanashikilia utamaduni wa wazee. Wakati
4 And when they come from the market, except they wash, they eate not: and many other things there be, which they haue taken vpon them to obserue, as the washing of cups, and pots, and of brasen vessels, and of beds.)
Mafarisayo wanaporudi kutoka mahali pa soko, hawali mpaka wameoga kwanza. Na kuna sheria zingine ambazo wanazifuata kabisa, ikiwa ni pamoja na kuosha vikombe, masufuria, vyombo vya shaba, na hata viti vinavyotumika wakati wa chakula.)
5 Then asked him the Pharises and Scribes, Why walke not thy disciples according to the tradition of the Elders, but eate meate with vnwashen hands?
Mafarisayo na waandishi walimuuliza Yesu, “Kwa nini wanafunzi wako hawaishi kulingana na tamaduni za wazee, kwani wanakula mkate pasipo kunawa mikono?”
6 Then hee answered and sayd vnto them, Surely Esay hath prophecied well of you, hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth mee with lippes, but their heart is farre away from me.
Lakini yeye aliwaambia, “Isaya alitabiri vizuri kuhusu ninyi wanafiki, aliandika, 'Watu hawa wananiheshimu kwa midomo yao, lakini mioyo yao iko mbali na mimi.
7 But they worship me in vaine, teaching for doctrines the commandements of men.
Wananifanyia ibaada zisizo na maana, wakifundisha sheria za wanadamu kama mapokeo yao.'
8 For ye lay the commandement of God apart, and obserue the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and of cups, and many other such like things ye doe.
Mmeiacha sheria ya Mungu na kushikilia kwa wepesi tamaduni za wanadamu.”
9 And he sayd vnto them, Well, ye reiect the commandement of God, that ye may obserue your owne tradition.
Na akasema kwao, “Mmeikataa amri ya Mungu kwa urahisi ili kwamba mtunze tamaduni zenu!
10 For Moses sayd, Honour thy father and thy mother: and Whosoeuer shall speake euill of father or mother, let him die the death.
Kwa kuwa Musa alisema, 'mheshimu baba yako na mama yako,' na 'Yeye asemaye mabaya juu ya baba yake au mama yake hakika atakufa.'
11 But yee say, If a man say to father or mother, Corban, that is, By the gift that is offered by mee, thou mayest haue profite, hee shall be free.
Lakini mnasema, 'kama mtu akisema kwa baba yake au mama, “Msaada wowote ambao mngepokea kutoka kwangu ni hazina ya Hekalu,”' (hiyo ni kusema kwamba, 'imetolewa kwa Mungu')
12 So ye suffer him no more to doe any thing for his father, or his mother,
hivyo haumruhusu kufanya jambo lolote kwa ajili ya baba au mama yake.
13 Making the worde of God of none authoritie, by your tradition which ye haue ordeined: and ye doe many such like things.
Mnaifanya amri ya Mungu kuwa bure kwa kuleta tamaduni zenu. Na mambo mengi ya jinsi hiyo mnayoyafanya.”
14 Then he called the whole multitude vnto him, and sayd vnto them, Hearken you all vnto me, and vnderstand.
Aliwaita makutano tena na kuwaambia, “Mnisikilize mimi, ninyi nyote, na mnielewe.
15 There is nothing without a man, that can defile him, when it entreth into him: but the things which proceede out of him, are they which defile the man.
Hakuna chochote kutoka nje ya mtu ambacho chaweza kumchafua mtu kiingiapo kwake. Bali ni kile kimtokacho mtu ndicho kimchafuacho.
16 If any haue eares to heare, let him heare.
(Zingatia: mstari huu, “kama mtu yeyote ana masikio ya kusikia, na asikie” haumo kwenye nakala za kale).
17 And when hee came into an house, away from the people, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.
Yesu alipowaacha makutano na kuingia nyumbani, wanafunzi wake wakamwuliza kuhusu mfano huo.
18 And he sayde vnto them, What? are ye without vnderstanding also? Doe ye not knowe that whatsoeuer thing from without entreth into a man, cannot defile him,
Yesu akasema, “Na ninyi pia bado hamjaelewa? Hamuoni kwamba chochote kimuingiacho mtu hakiwezi kumchafua,
19 Because it entreth not into his heart, but into the belly, and goeth out into the draught which is the purging of all meates?
kwa sababu hakiwezi kwenda kwenye moyo wake, lakini kinaingia katika tumbo lake na kisha kinapita kwenda chooni.” Kwa maelezo haya Yesu alivifanya vyakula vyote kuwa safi.
20 Then he sayd, That which commeth out of man, that defileth man.
Alisema, “Ni kile ambacho kinamtoka mtu ndicho kimchafuacho.
21 For from within, euen out of the heart of men, proceede euill thoughtes, adulteries, fornications, murthers,
Kwa kuwa hutoka ndani ya mtu, nje ya moyo, hutoka mawazo maovu, zinaa, wizi, mauaji,
22 Theftes, couetousnes, wickednes, deceite, vncleannes, a wicked eye, backbiting, pride, foolishnesse.
uasherati, tamaa mbaya, uovu, udanganyifu, kujamiiana, wivu, kashfa, majivuno, ujinga.
23 All these euill things come from within, and defile a man.
Maovu haya yote yanatoka ndani, ndiyo yale yamchafuayo mtu.”
24 And from thence he rose, and went into the borders of Tyrus and Sidon, and entred into an house, and woulde that no man should haue knowen: but he could not be hid.
Aliamka kutoka pale na kuondoka kwenda katika mkoa wa Tiro na Sidoni. Aliingia ndani na hakutaka mtu yeyote ajue kuwa alikuwa hapo, lakini haikuwezekana kumficha.
25 For a certaine woman, whose litle daughter had an vncleane spirit, heard of him, and came, and fell at his feete,
Lakini ghafla mwanamke, ambaye mtoto wake mdogo alikuwa na roho mchafu, alisikia habari zake, akaja, na akaanguka miguuni pake.
26 (And the woman was a Greeke, a Syrophenissian by nation) and she besought him that he would cast out the deuill out of her daughter.
Mwanamke huyo alikuwa Myunani, wa kabila la Kifoeniki. Alimsihi yeye amfukuze pepo kutoka kwa binti yake.
27 But Iesus saide vnto her, Let the children first be fedde: for it is not good to take the childrens bread, and to cast it vnto whelpes.
Yesu akamwambia mwanamke, “Waache watoto walishwe kwanza, kwa kuwa sio sawa kuuchukua mkate wa watoto na kuwatupia mbwa.”
28 Then shee answered, and saide vnto him, Trueth, Lord: yet in deede the whelpes eate vnder the table of the childrens crommes.
Lakini mwanamke akamjibu na kusema, “Ndiyo Bwana, hata mbwa chini ya meza hula mabaki ya chakula cha watoto.”
29 Then he said vnto her, For this saying goe thy way: the deuil is gone out of thy daughter.
Akamwambia, “Kwa kuwa umesema hivi, uko huru kwenda. Pepo ameshamtoka binti yako.”
30 And when shee was come home to her house, shee founde the deuill departed, and her daughter lying on the bed.
Mwanamke alirudi nyumbani kwake na akamkuta binti yake amelala kitandani, na pepo alikuwa amemtoka.
31 And hee departed againe from the coastes of Tyrus and Sidon, and came vnto the sea of Galile, through the middes of the coastes of Decapolis.
Yesu alitoka tena nje ya mkoa wa Tiro na kupitia Sidoni kuelekea Bahari ya Galilaya mpaka kanda ya Dikapolisi.
32 And they brought vnto him one that was deafe and stambered in his speache, and prayed him to put his hand vpon him.
Na wakamletea mtu aliyekuwa kiziwi na alikuwa hawezi kuzungumza vizuri, walimsihi Yesu aweke mikono juu yake.
33 Then hee tooke him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers in his eares, and did spit, and touched his tongue.
Alimtoa nje ya kusanyiko kwa siri, na akaweka vidole vyake kwenye masikio yake, na baada ya kutema mate, aligusa ulimi wake.
34 And looking vp to heauen, hee sighed, and said vnto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.
Alitazama juu mbinguni, akahema na kumwambia, “Efata,” hiyo ni kusema “funguka!”
35 And straightway his eares were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and hee spake plaine.
Na muda ule ule masikio yakafunguka, na kilichokuwa kimezuia ulimi kiliharibiwa na akaweza kuongea vizuri.
36 And he commanded them, that they should tell no man: but howe much soeuer hee forbad them, the more a great deale they published it,
Na aliwaamuru wasimwambie mtu yeyote. Lakini kadri alivyowaamuru, ndivyo walivyotangaza habari hizo kwa wingi.
37 And were beyonde measure astonied, saying, Hee hath done all thinges well: he maketh both the deafe to heare, and the domme to speake.
Hakika walishangazwa, na kusema, “Amefanya kila kitu vizuri. Hata amewafanya viziwi kusikia na mabubu kuongea.”
