Mark 4
1 And again He began to teach by the sea: and a great multitude is gathered unto Him, so that He having gone into a ship, sat on the sea; and the whole multitude was at the sea on the land.
Nake Jesũ akĩambĩrĩria kũrutana o rĩngĩ arĩ kũu hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria. Na rĩrĩ, gĩkundi kĩa andũ kĩrĩa kĩonganĩte gĩkamũrigiicĩria kĩarĩ kĩnene nginya gĩgĩtũma atoonye gatarũ-inĩ, agĩikara thĩinĩ wako kũu iria-inĩ; nao andũ acio angĩ othe magĩikara hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria.
2 And He was teaching them many things in parables, and in His teaching He said to them,
Na akĩmaruta maũndũ maingĩ na ngerekano, na akĩrutana akĩmeera atĩrĩ,
3 Hear: Behold, a sower went out to sow:
“Ta thikĩrĩriai! Mũrĩmi ũmwe nĩoimagarire akahure mbeũ ciake.
4 and it came to pass while he was sowing, some fell by the wayside, and the fowls came and devoured it.
Na rĩrĩa aahuraga mbeũ icio, imwe ikĩgũa mũkĩra-inĩ wa njĩra, nacio nyoni igĩũka igĩcirĩa.
5 And other fell upon stones, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:
Iria ingĩ ikĩgũa rũnyanjara-inĩ kũrĩa gũtaarĩ na tĩĩri mũingĩ. Nacio ikĩmera narua tondũ tĩĩri ndwarĩ mũriku.
6 and when the sun arose, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
No rĩrĩa riũa rĩaarire rĩgĩcina mĩmera ĩyo, nayo ĩkĩũma tondũ ndĩarĩ na mĩri.
7 And other fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang up, and choked it, and it gave no fruit.
Mbeũ iria ingĩ ikĩgũa mĩigua-inĩ, nayo mĩigua ĩgĩkũra, ĩgĩthararia mbeũ icio ikĩaga gũciara.
8 And other fell in good ground, and springing up and growing, gave fruit, and produced, one thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundred.
Ingĩ nacio ikĩgũa tĩĩri-inĩ mũnoru. Ikĩmera, igĩkũra na igĩciara maciaro, imwe ikiumia maita mĩrongo ĩtatũ, ingĩ maita mĩrongo ĩtandatũ, o na ingĩ maita igana.”
9 And He said, Let the one having ears to hear, hear.
Jesũ agĩcooka akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩa ũrĩ na matũ ma kũigua, nĩakĩigue.”
10 And when they were alone, and those around Him along with the twelve asked Him the parable.
Na rĩrĩa aarĩ wiki, arutwo arĩa ikũmi na eerĩ, o na arĩa angĩ maarĩ hamwe nake, makĩmũũria ũhoro wa ngerekano icio.
11 And He said to them, To you it has been given the mystery of the kingdom of God: but to them who are without, all things are in parables:
Nake akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ nĩmũheetwo ũmenyo wa kũmenya hitho cia ũthamaki wa Ngai. No arĩa marĩ na kũu nja maaragĩrio maũndũ mothe na ngerekano
12 in order that seeing they may see, and not know; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest they may turn, and their sins may he forgiven unto them.
nĩgeetha, “‘matũũre maroraga no makaaga kuona, na matũũre maiguaga na matimenye ũndũ; nĩguo hihi matikae kũgarũrũka marekerwo mehia mao!’”
13 And He says to them, Do you not understand this parable? and how will you know all parables?
Ningĩ Jesũ akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ mũtanataũkĩrwo nĩ ngerekano ĩyo? Mũngĩkĩmenya atĩa ngerekano iria ingĩ?
14 The sower sows the word.
Mũrĩmi ahuraga kiugo kĩa Ngai.
15 And those who are by the way-side, where the word is sown; and when they hear it, immediately Satan comes, and takes away the word which was sown in their hearts.
Andũ amwe matariĩ ta mbeũ iria ciagũire njĩra-inĩ harĩa ũhoro ũhuragwo. Acio nĩ arĩa maiguaga ũhoro, na maarĩkia kũigua-rĩ, Shaitani agooka akeheria ũhoro ũcio wahaandwo thĩinĩ wao.
16 And those who are sowed upon the rocks are likewise, those who, when they may hear the word, immediately with joy receive it.
Angĩ nao matariĩ ta mbeũ iria ciagũire rũnyanjara-inĩ. Acio nĩ arĩa maiguaga ũhoro na o rĩmwe makawamũkĩra na gĩkeno.
17 And they have no root in themselves, but are temporary; then tribulation or persecution arising on account of the word, they are immediately offended:
No tondũ matirĩ na mĩri-rĩ, maikaraga o kahinda kanini. Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa thĩĩna woka kana maanyariirwo nĩ ũndũ wa ũhoro wa Ngai, magũũaga o narua.
18 and others are those who are sown among the thorns; they are those hearing the word,
Angĩ nao matariĩ ta mbeũ iria ciagũire mĩigua-inĩ. Acio nĩ arĩa maiguaga ũhoro,
19 and the cares of the age, and the deceitfulness of riches, and desires concerning other things coming into them, choke out the word, and it becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
no mĩhangʼo ya maũndũ ma mũtũũrĩre ũyũ, na kũheenererio nĩ ũtonga, na merirĩria ma maũndũ mangĩ, magathararia ũhoro ũcio, magatũma wage maciaro. (aiōn g165)
20 And these are they who are sown on good ground; whosoever hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirty, some sixty, and some a hundred.
Angĩ matariĩ ta mbeũ iria ciagũire tĩĩri-inĩ ũrĩa mũnoru. Acio nĩ arĩa maiguaga ũhoro, makawĩtĩkĩra, na magaciara maciaro, amwe maita mĩrongo ĩtatũ, na angĩ maita mĩrongo ĩtandatũ, o na angĩ maita igana ma kĩrĩa kĩahaandirwo.”
21 And He said to them; Whether does the light come, that it may be placed under a bushel, or under a bed? is it not that it may be placed on a candlestick?
Jesũ agĩcooka akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “No anga tawa wakagio ũgacooka ũgakunĩkĩrio na irebe, kana ũkaigwo rungu rwa ũrĩrĩ? Handũ ha ũguo githĩ ndũigagĩrĩrwo handũ igũrũ?
22 For there is nothing hidden which may not be made manifest; neither is there any thing concealed, but that it may come into the light.
Nĩgũkorwo kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩrĩ hitho-inĩ nĩgĩkaguũrio, nakĩo kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩhithĩtwo nĩgĩkareehwo ũtheri-inĩ.
23 If any one has ears to hear, let him hear.
Akorwo mũndũ arĩ na matũ ma kũigua, nĩakĩigue.”
24 And He said to them. See what you hear: with what measure you measure it shall be measured unto you: and it shall be added unto you who hear.
Agĩthiĩ na mbere, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Menyagĩrĩrai wega ũrĩa mũiguaga. Gĩthimi kĩrĩa mũthimanagĩra nakĩo, no kĩo mũrĩthimagĩrwo nakĩo, na nĩmũrĩkĩragĩrĩrio.
25 For whosoever has, it shall be given unto him: and he who has not, it shall be taken from him even that which he has.
Ũrĩa wothe wĩ na indo nĩakongererwo nyingĩ; na ũrĩa wothe ũtarĩ nĩagatuunywo o na kĩrĩa arĩ nakĩo.”
26 And He said, Thus is the kingdom of God, as a man may cast seed on the ground;
Jesũ agĩcooka akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũthamaki wa Ngai ũtariĩ ta mũndũ ũrĩa ũhaandaga mbeũ tĩĩri-inĩ.
27 and he may sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed germinates and grows, as he does not know.
Akomaga ũtukũ na agokĩra mũthenya, nacio mbeũ ikamera na igakũra, nowe ndamenyaga ũrĩa ikũraga.
28 The earth spontaneously brings forth fruit; first the blade, then the ear, then the full corn in the ear.
Tĩĩri guo mwene nĩguo ũtũmaga iciare. Ciambaga kũruta nguha igacooka ikaruta igira, na thuutha ũcio igira thĩinĩ hakagĩa na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa njiganu.
29 And when the fruit may develop, immediately he thrusts in the sickle, because the harvest is at hand.
Na maciaro macio maarĩkia kũũma, mũrĩmi ũcio akoya rũhiũ rwa igetha, akagetha tondũ hĩndĩ ya magetha nĩ yakinya.”
30 And He said, To what may we liken the kingdom of God? or in what parable may we present it?
Agĩcooka akiuga atĩrĩ, “Tũngĩhaanania ũthamaki wa Ngai na kĩ? Kana nĩ ngerekano ĩrĩkũ tũngĩheana ũhoro waguo nayo?
31 Tis like a grain of mustard seed, which when it may be sown upon the earth, is the smallest of all seeds which are upon the earth,
Ũhaana ta mbeũ ya karatarĩ, arĩ yo mbeũ ĩrĩa nini mũno mũhaandaga tĩĩri-inĩ.
32 and when it may be sowed, it springs up, and becomes the greatest of herbs, and produces great branches; so that the birds of the heavens are able to lodge under its shadow.
No yahaandwo-rĩ, ĩkũraga ĩgatuĩka mũmera mũnene gũkĩra mĩmera ĩrĩa ĩngĩ yothe ya mũgũnda, na ũkagĩa na honge nene nginya nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ igooka igaaka itara na ikahurũka kĩĩruru-inĩ kĩaguo.”
33 And in many such parables He continued to speak the word to them, as they were able to hear.
Jesũ nĩamaheaga ũhoro na ngerekano ingĩ nyingĩ ta icio o ta ũrĩa mangĩahotire kũigua.
34 And without a parable He did not speak to them: and He privately expounded all things to His disciples.
Gũtirĩ ũndũ aameeraga atekwaria na ngerekano. No rĩrĩa maarĩ na arutwo ake oiki, nĩamataragĩria maũndũ mothe.
35 And He says to them, on that day, it being evening, Let us go away to the other side.
Na mũthenya o ũcio gwakinya hwaĩ-inĩ-rĩ, akĩĩra arutwo ake atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũringei tũthiĩ mũrĩmo ũũrĩa ũngĩ.”
36 And leaving the multitude, they receive Him, as He was in the ship; and other ships were also with Him.
Na maarĩkia gũtiga gĩkundi kĩa andũ na thuutha, makĩhaica gatarũ-inĩ o harĩa Jesũ aarĩ. Na nĩ kwarĩ na tũtarũ tũngĩ twatwaranire hamwe nake.
37 And there was a great storm of wind: and the waves were dashing into the ship, so that it was already filled.
Na rĩrĩ, kũu iria-inĩ gũkĩgĩa na kĩhuhũkanio kĩnene, namo makũmbĩ ma maaĩ magĩtoonya gatarũ thĩinĩ, o nginya gakĩenda kũũrĩra.
38 And He was in the stern, sleeping on a pillow: and they awaken Him, and say to Him; Teacher, is there no care to thee that we perish?
Jesũ aarĩ toro akomeire muto mũthia-inĩ wa gatarũ. Nao arutwo makĩmũũkĩria makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mũrutani, kaĩ wee ũtaramaka tũkĩũrĩra maaĩ-inĩ?”
39 And being awakened, He said to the sea, Be calm, be quiet. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
Nake Jesũ agĩũkĩra, agĩkaania rũhuho na akĩĩra makũmbĩ macio ma iria atĩrĩ, “Kira! Na ũhoorere!” Naruo rũhuho rũgĩtiga kũhurutana, gũkĩhoorera biũ.
40 And He said to them, Why are you so cowardly? how have you not faith?
Jesũ akĩũria arutwo ake atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte mũmake ũguo? O na rĩu mũtirĩ mũretĩkia?”
41 And they feared with a great fear, and continued to say to one another, Who then is this, because the wind and the sea obey Him?
Nao magĩĩtigĩra mũno na makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ mũndũ ũyũ akĩrĩ ũũ? Tondũ o na rũhuho na makũmbĩ ma iria nĩiramwathĩkĩra!”
