< Matthew 4 >
1 Then Jesus was led up to the wilderness by the Spirit, to be tempted by the Devil,
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Jesũ nĩatongoririo nĩ Roho agĩtwarwo werũ-inĩ akagerio nĩ mũcukani.
2 and having fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He hungered.
Na aniina mĩthenya mĩrongo ĩna, ũtukũ na mũthenya, ehingĩte kũrĩa irio-rĩ, akĩigua ahũtiĩ.
3 And the tempting [one], having come to Him, said, “If You are the Son of God—speak that these stones may become loaves.”
Nake mũgerania akĩmũkora, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo wee nĩwe Mũrũ wa Ngai-rĩ, ĩra mahiga maya matuĩke mĩgate.”
4 But He answering said, “It has been written: Man does not live on bread alone, but on every word coming forth from the mouth of God.”
Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: ‘To mũgate wiki ũngĩtũũria mũndũ muoyo, no nĩ kiugo gĩothe kĩrĩa kiumaga kanua ka Ngai.’”
5 Then the Devil takes Him to the [holy] city, and sets Him on the pinnacle of the temple,
Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũcukani akĩmũtwara itũũra rĩrĩa itheru, akĩmũrũgamia gathũrũmũndũ ka hekarũ,
6 and says to Him, “If You are the Son of God—cast Yourself down, for it has been written that, His messengers He will charge concerning you, and on hands they will bear you up, that you may not dash your foot on a stone.”
akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo wee nĩwe Mũrũ wa Ngai-rĩ, wĩgũithie thĩ. Nĩgũkorwo kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “‘Nĩagaatha araika ake nĩ ũndũ waku, nao nĩmagakwanĩrĩria na moko mao, nĩguo ndũkanahĩngwo kũgũrũ nĩ ihiga.’”
7 Jesus said to him again, “It has been written: You will not tempt the LORD your God.”
Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ningĩ nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: ‘Ndũkanagerie Mwathani Ngai waku.’”
8 Again the Devil takes Him to a very high mountain, and shows to Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory,
Ningĩ mũcukani akĩmũtwara kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩraaya mũno, akĩmuonia mothamaki mothe ma thĩ na riiri wamo.
9 and says to Him, “All these I will give to You, if falling down You may worship me.”
Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Maũndũ maya mothe nĩngũkũhe, ũngĩĩtĩkĩra kũnyinamĩrĩra ũũhooe.”
10 Then Jesus says to him, “Go—Satan, for it has been written: You will worship the LORD your God, and Him only will you serve.”
Nake Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ Shaitani ndiga! Nĩgũkorwo nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: ‘Hooyaga Mwathani Ngai waku, na ũmũtungatagĩre o we wiki.’”
11 Then the Devil leaves Him, and behold, messengers came and were ministering to Him.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũcukani akĩmũtiga, nao araika magĩũka makĩmũtungatĩra.
12 And Jesus, having heard that John was delivered up, withdrew to Galilee,
Na rĩrĩa Jesũ aiguire atĩ Johana nĩaikĩtio njeera-rĩ, agĩthiĩ Galili.
13 and having left Nazareth, having come, He dwelt at Capernaum that is by the sea, in the borders of Zebulun and Naphtali,
Akiuma Nazarethi, agĩthiĩ gũtũũra Kaperinaumu. Itũũra rĩu rĩarĩ hakuhĩ na iria, bũrũri-inĩ wa Zebuluni na Nafitali.
14 that it might be fulfilled that was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
Ũndũ ũcio wekĩkire nĩguo ũhoro ũrĩa waarĩtio na kanua ka mũnabii Isaia ũhinge, rĩrĩa oigire atĩrĩ:
15 “Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations!
“Bũrũri wa Zebuluni, o na bũrũri wa Nafitali, njĩra ya gũthiĩ iria-inĩ, gũikũrũkania na Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani, kũu gwĩtagwo Galili-kwa-Ndũrĩrĩ:
16 The people that is sitting in darkness saw a great light, and to those sitting in a region and shadow of death—light arose to them.”
andũ arĩa matũũraga nduma-inĩ nĩmonete ũtheri mũnene; nao arĩa matũũraga bũrũri ũrĩ kĩĩruru gĩa gĩkuũ-rĩ, nĩmarĩirwo nĩ ũtheri.”
17 From that time Jesus began to proclaim and to say, “Convert, for the kingdom of the heavens has come near.”
Kuuma hĩndĩ ĩyo Jesũ akĩambĩrĩria kũhunjia ũhoro akiugaga atĩrĩ, “Mwĩrirei, nĩgũkorwo ũthamaki wa igũrũ nĩũkuhĩrĩirie.”
18 And Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, saw two brothers, Simon named Peter and his brother Andrew, casting a drag into the sea—for they were fishers—
Rĩrĩa Jesũ aaceeraga hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia Iria rĩa Galili, nĩonire andũ eerĩ a nyina ũmwe, nao nĩ Simoni ũrĩa wetagwo Petero, na mũrũ wa nyina Anderea. Maikagia neti iria-inĩ, nĩgũkorwo maarĩ ategi a thamaki.
19 and He says to them, “Come after Me, and I will make you fishers of men,”
Nake Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ũkai, mũnũmĩrĩre, na nĩngũmũtua ategi a andũ.”
20 and they, immediately, having left the nets, followed Him.
Nao o rĩmwe magĩtiganĩria neti ciao, makĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
21 And having advanced from there, He saw two other brothers, James of Zebedee, and his brother John, in the boat with their father Zebedee, refitting their nets, and He called them,
Na aathiathia akĩona andũ angĩ eerĩ a nyina ũmwe, Jakubu mũrũ wa Zebedi, na mũrũ wa nyina Johana. Maarĩ thĩinĩ wa gatarũ hamwe na ithe wao Zebedi makĩhaarĩria neti ciao. Nake Jesũ akĩmeeta,
22 and they, immediately, having left the boat and their father, followed Him.
na o rĩmwe magĩtiganĩria gatarũ na magĩtiga ithe wao, makĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
23 And Jesus was going in all of Galilee teaching in their synagogues, and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people,
No rĩrĩ, Jesũ nĩathiire Galili guothe, akĩrutanaga thunagogi-inĩ ciao, akĩhunjagia Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa ũthamaki wa Ngai, na akĩhonagia andũ mĩrimũ yothe na ndwari ciothe iria maarĩ nacio.
24 and His fame went forth to all Syria, and they brought to Him all the ill having manifold oppressing diseases and torments—and demoniacs, and lunatics, and paralytics—and He healed them.
Nayo ngumo yake ĩkĩhunjio bũrũri wothe wa Suriata, nao andũ makĩmũrehera andũ arĩa othe maarĩ arũaru ndwari cia mĩthemba mĩingĩ, na arĩa maarĩ na ruo rũingĩ, na arĩa maarĩ na ndaimono, na arĩa maarĩ na mũrimũ wa kũgũũaga, o na arĩa maarĩ na mũrimũ wa gũkua ciĩga, nake akĩmahonia othe.
25 And there followed Him many multitudes from Galilee, and Decapolis, and Jerusalem, and Judea, and beyond the Jordan.
Nao andũ aingĩ mũno kuuma Galili, na Dekapoli, na Jerusalemu, na Judea, na mũrĩmo ũũrĩa ũngĩ wa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani makĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
