Mark 1
1 A beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, Son of God.
Ukuqala kwevangeli likaJesu Kristu, iNdodana kaNkulunkulu;
2 As it has been written in the Prophets: “Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before You.
njengokulotshiweyo kubaprofethiukuthi: Khangela, mina ngiyathuma isithunywa sami phambi kobuso bakho, esizalungisa indlela yakho phambi kwakho.
3 A voice of one calling in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the LORD, Make His paths straight.”
Ilizwi lomemezayo enkangala, lithi: Lungisani indlela yeNkosi; qondisani izindledlana zayo.
4 John came immersing in the wilderness, and proclaiming an immersion of conversion for forgiveness of sins,
Kweza uJohane ebhabhathiza enkangala, etshumayela ubhabhathizo lokuphenduka kukho ukuthethelelwa kwezono,
5 and there were going forth to him all the region of Judea, and they of Jerusalem, and they were all immersed by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
njalo kwaphumela kuye ilizwe lonke leJudiya, labo abeJerusalema, basebebhabhathizwa bonke nguye emfuleni iJordani, bevuma izono zabo.
6 And John was clothed with camel’s hair, and a girdle of skin around his loins, and eating locusts and honey of the field,
Futhi uJohane wayembethe uboya bekamela, elozwezwe lwesikhumba ekhalweni lwakhe, wayesidla intethe loluju lweganga.
7 and he proclaimed, saying, “He comes—who is mightier than I—after me, of whom I am not worthy—having stooped down—to loose the strap of His sandals;
Watshumayela, esithi: Olamandla kulami uyeza emva kwami, engingafanele ukukhothama ngithukulule umchilo wamanyathela akhe.
8 I indeed immersed you in water, but He will immerse you in the Holy Spirit.”
Mina isibili ngilibhabhathize ngamanzi; kodwa yena uzalibhabhathiza ngoMoya oNgcwele.
9 And it came to pass in those days, Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was immersed by John in the Jordan;
Kwasekusithi ngalezonsuku kwafika uJesu evela eNazaretha yeGalili, wabhabhathizwa nguJohane eJordani.
10 and immediately coming up from the water, He saw the heavens dividing, and the Spirit coming down on Him as a dove;
Wenela ukukhuphuka emanzini, wabona amazulu eqhekezeka, loMoya kungathi lijuba esehlela phezu kwakhe;
11 and a voice came out of the heavens, “You are My Son, the Beloved, in whom I delighted.”
kwasekusiza ilizwi livela emazulwini, lathi: Wena uyiNdodana yami ethandekayo, engithokoza ngayo.
12 And immediately the Spirit puts Him forth into the wilderness,
Njalo uMoya wahle wamqhubela enkangala.
13 and He was there in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by Satan, and He was with the beasts, and the messengers were ministering to Him.
Wayekhona-ke lapho enkangala insuku ezingamatshumi amane elingwa nguSathane, wayelezilo, ingilosi zasezimnceda.
14 And after the delivering up of John, Jesus came to Galilee, proclaiming the good news of the Kingdom of God,
Kwathi emva kokunikelwa kukaJohane, uJesu wafika eGalili, etshumayela ivangeli lombuso kaNkulunkulu,
15 and saying, “The time has been fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God has come near, convert and believe in the good news.”
njalo esithi: Isikhathi sigcwalisekile, njalo umbuso kaNkulunkulu ususondele; phendukani, likholwe ivangeli.
16 And walking by the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon, and his brother Andrew, casting a drag into the sea, for they were fishers,
Kwathi ehambahamba elwandle lweGalili wabona uSimoni loAndreya umfowabo, bephosela imbule olwandle; ngoba babengabagoli benhlanzi.
17 and Jesus said to them, “Come after Me, and I will make you to become fishers of men”;
UJesu wasesithi kubo: Ngilandelani, ngizalenza libe ngabagoli babantu.
18 and immediately, having left their nets, they followed Him.
Njalo bahle batshiya amambule abo, bamlandela.
19 And having gone on there a little, He saw James of Zebedee, and his brother John, and they were in the boat refitting the nets,
Eseqhubeke ibangana esuka lapho, wabona uJakobe okaZebediya, loJohane umfowabo, labo babesemkhunjini belungisa amambule abo.
20 and immediately He called them, and having left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, they went away after Him.
Njalo wahle wababiza; basebetshiya uyise uZebediya emkhunjini leziqhatshwa, basuka bamlandela.
21 And they go on to Capernaum, and immediately, on the Sabbaths, having gone into the synagogue, He was teaching,
Basebengena eKapenawume; kwathi ngesabatha wahle wangena esinagogeni, wafundisa.
22 and they were astonished at His teaching, for He was teaching them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
Basebebabaza ngemfundiso yakhe; ngoba wabafundisa njengolamandla, njalo kungenjengababhali.
23 And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,
Futhi kwakukhona esinagogeni labo umuntu owayelomoya ongcolileyo, wasememeza,
24 saying, “What [regards] us and You, Jesus the Nazarene? You came to destroy us; I have known You, who You are—the Holy One of God.”
wathi: Yekela, silani lawe, Jesu weNazaretha? Uze ukusibhubhisa yini? Ngiyakwazi wena ukuthi ungubani: ONgcwele kaNkulunkulu.
25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silenced, and come forth out of him,”
UJesu wasemkhuza, wathi: Thula, uphume kuye.
26 and the unclean spirit having convulsed him, and having cried with a great voice, came forth out of him,
Futhi umoya ongcolileyo emhlukuluza ekhala ngelizwi elikhulu, waphuma kuye.
27 and they were all amazed, so as to reason among themselves, saying, “What is this? What new teaching [is] this? That with authority He also commands the unclean spirits, and they obey Him!”
Basebemangala bonke, baze babuzana, bathi: Kuyini lokhu? Yimfundiso bani entsha le, ukuthi ngamandla uyalaya labomoya abangcolileyo, futhi bamlalele.
28 And the fame of Him went forth immediately to all the region of Galilee.
Njalo yahle yaphuma indumela yakhe esigabeni sonke seGalili esizingelezeleyo.
29 And immediately, having come forth out of the synagogue, they went into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John,
Njalo bahle baphuma esinagogeni, bangena endlini kaSimoni loAndreya, kanye loJakobe loJohane.
30 and the mother-in-law of Simon was lying fevered, and immediately they tell Him about her,
Futhi uninazala kaSimoni wayelele eloqhuqho, njalo bahle bamtshela ngaye;
31 and having come near, He raised her up, having laid hold of her hand, and the fever left her immediately, and she was ministering to them.
wasesondela, wabamba isandla sakhe wamvusa; futhi uqhuqho lwahle lwamyekela, wabasebenzela.
32 And evening having come, when the sun set, they brought to Him all who were ill and who were demoniacs,
Kwathi sekuhlwile, ilanga selitshona, baletha kuye bonke abagulayo lababengenwe ngamadimoni;
33 and the whole city was gathered together near the door,
njalo umuzi wonke wawubuthene emnyango.
34 and He healed many who were ill of manifold diseases, and He cast forth many demons, and was not permitting the demons to speak, because they knew Him.
Wasesilisa abanengi ababegula izifo ezitshiyeneyo, wakhupha amadimoni amanengi, kodwa kavumelanga amadimoni ukuthi akhulume, ngoba ayemazi.
35 And very early, it being yet night, having risen, He went forth, and went away to a desolate place, and was praying there;
Njalo ekuseni kusesemnyama kakhulu wavuka waphuma, waya endaweni eyinkangala, wakhuleka khona.
36 and Simon and those with him went in quest of Him,
USimoni lababelaye basebemdingisisa;
37 and having found Him, they say to Him, “All seek You”;
sebemtholile bathi kuye: Bonke bayakudinga.
38 and He says to them, “We may go into the next towns, that there also I may preach, for—for this I came forth.”
Wasesithi kubo: Asiye emizini eseduze, ukuze ngitshumayele lakhona; ngoba ngiphumele lokhu.
39 And He was preaching in their synagogues, in all Galilee, and is casting out the demons,
Wasetshumayela emasinagogeni abo kulo lonke eleGalili, ekhupha amadimoni.
40 and there comes to Him a leper, calling on Him, and kneeling to Him, and saying to Him, “If You may will, You are able to cleanse me.”
Kwasekufika kuye umlephero, emncenga eguqa ngamadolo phambi kwakhe, esithi kuye: Aluba uthanda, ungangihlambulula.
41 And Jesus having been moved with compassion, having stretched forth the hand, touched him and says to him, “I will, be cleansed”;
UJesu wasesiba lesihelo, welula isandla, wamthinta, wathi kuye: Ngiyathanda, hlambuluka;
42 and He having spoken, immediately the leprosy went away from him, and he was cleansed.
esekhulumile bahle basuka ubulephero kuye, wahlanjululwa.
43 And having sternly charged him, immediately He put him forth,
Wasemlayisisa, wahle wamyekela wahamba,
44 and says to him, “See [that] you may say nothing to anyone, but go away, show yourself to the priest, and bring near for your cleansing the things Moses directed, for a testimony to them.”
esithi kuye: Khangela ungatsheli muntu ulutho; kodwa hamba, uziveze kumpristi, unikele ngokuhlanjululwa kwakho lokho uMozisi akulayayo, kube yibufakazi kubo.
45 And he, having gone forth, began to proclaim much, and to spread the thing abroad, so that He was no longer able to openly enter into the city, but He was outside in desolate places, and they were coming to Him from every quarter.
Kodwa yena esephumile waqala ukumemezela kakhulu walwandisa udaba, kwaze kwathi wayengaselakho ukungena emzini obala, kodwa wayengaphandle ezindaweni ezizinkangala; beza kuye bevela enhlangothini zonke.
