< Mark 8 >

1 In those days, when there was a large crowd, and they had nothing to eat, he called the disciples to himself, and said to them,
Na rĩrĩ, matukũ-inĩ macio kĩrĩndĩ kĩingĩ gĩkĩũngana rĩngĩ. Na tondũ gĩtiarĩ na kĩndũ gĩa kũrĩa-rĩ, Jesũ agĩĩta arutwo ake moke harĩ we, akĩmeera atĩrĩ,
2 "I have compassion on the crowd, because they have stayed with me now three days, and have nothing to eat.
“Nĩndĩraiguĩra andũ aya tha Nĩgũkorwo makoretwo hamwe na niĩ rĩu mĩthenya ĩtatũ na matirĩ na kĩndũ gĩa kũrĩa.
3 If I send them away fasting to their home, they will faint on the way, and some of them have come a long way."
Ingĩmeera mainũke mahũũtiĩ mekũringĩkĩra njĩra, tondũ amwe ao moimĩte kũraya.”
4 His disciples answered him, "From where could one satisfy these people with bread here in a deserted place?"
Nao arutwo makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ angĩruta irio cia kũmahũũnia kũ gũkũ werũ-inĩ ũyũ?”
5 He asked them, "How many loaves do you have?" They said, "Seven."
Jesũ akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũrĩ na mĩgate ĩigana?” Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Tũrĩ na mĩgate mũgwanja.”
6 He commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground, and he took the seven loaves. Having given thanks, he broke them, and gave them to his disciples to serve, and they served the crowd.
Akĩĩra kĩrĩndĩ gĩikare thĩ. Nake akĩoya mĩgate ĩyo mũgwanja, na aarĩkia gũcookia ngaatho akĩenyũranga mĩgate ĩyo, akĩmĩnengera arutwo ake mahe andũ, nao magĩĩka o ũguo.
7 They had a few small fish. Having blessed them, he said to serve these also.
O na nĩ maarĩ na tũthamaki tũnini tũtarĩ tũingĩ; agĩcookia ngaatho nĩ ũndũ watuo, na akĩĩra arutwo magaĩre andũ.
8 They ate, and were filled. They took up seven baskets of broken pieces that were left over.
Nao makĩrĩa makĩhũũna. Thuutha ũcio arutwo makĩũngania cienyũ iria ciatigarĩte, ikĩiyũra ciondo mũgwanja.
9 Now they were about four thousand. Then he sent them away.
Andũ arũme arĩa maarĩire maarĩ ta ngiri inya. Na aarĩkia kũmeera mathiĩ,
10 Immediately he entered into the boat with his disciples, and came into the region of Dalmanutha.
agĩtoonya gatarũ me na arutwo ake, magĩthiĩ bũrũri wa Dalumanutha.
11 The Pharisees came out and began to question him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, and testing him.
Nao Afarisai magĩũka na makĩambĩrĩria kũũria Jesũ ciũria. Makĩmwĩra aringe kĩama kuuma igũrũ no nĩkũmũgeria maamũgeragia.
12 He sighed deeply in his spirit, and said, "Why does this generation seek a sign? Truly I tell you, no sign will be given to this generation."
Nake akĩhũmũka ihũmũka inene, akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩkĩ gĩgũtũma rũciaro rũrũ rũũrie rũringĩrwo kĩama? Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma gũtirĩ kĩama rũkũringĩrwo.”
13 And he left them, and got into the boat again, and went to the other side.
Agĩcooka akĩmatiga, agĩtoonya gatarũ akĩringa mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ.
14 Now they forgot to take bread; and they did not have more than one loaf in the boat with them.
Na rĩrĩ, arutwo nĩmariganĩirwo nĩ gũkuua mĩgate, tiga o mũgate ũmwe marĩ naguo gatarũ-inĩ.
15 He warned them, saying, "Watch out; guard yourselves against the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod."
Nake Jesũ akĩmataara akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mwĩmenyererei. Mwĩhũgagei ndawa ya kũimbia mĩgate ya Afarisai na ya Herode.”
16 And they began discussing among themselves that they had no bread.
Nao makĩaranĩria ũhoro ũcio mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ, makĩĩrana atĩrĩ, “Aratwĩra ũguo tondũ tũtirĩ na mĩgate.”
17 He, perceiving it, said to them, "Why do you reason that it's because you have no bread? Do you not perceive yet, neither understand? Are your hearts hardened?
Jesũ aamenya ũrĩa meeranaga akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ kĩratũma mwaranĩrie ũhoro wa kwaga mĩgate? Nginya rĩu mũtirĩ mũrataũkĩrwo o na kana mũkamenya? Nĩ kũũmia mũũmĩtie ngoro cianyu?
18 Having eyes, do you not see? Having ears, do you not hear? Do you not remember?
Anga mũrĩ na maitho na mũtionaga, na mũrĩ na matũ na mũtiiguaga? Kaĩ mũtararirikana?
19 When I broke the five loaves among the five thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?" They told him, "Twelve."
Rĩrĩa ndenyũrangĩire andũ arĩa ngiri ithano mĩgate ĩrĩa ĩtano-rĩ, nĩ ciondo ciigana muonganirie ciiyũrĩte cienyũ cia mĩgate?” Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ciarĩ ciondo ikũmi na igĩrĩ.”
20 "When the seven loaves fed the four thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?" And they said, "Seven."
“Na rĩrĩa ndenyũrangĩire andũ arĩa ngiri inya mĩgate ĩrĩa mũgwanja-rĩ, nĩ ciondo ciigana muonganirie ciiyũrĩte cienyũ cia mĩgate?” Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ciarĩ ciondo mũgwanja.”
21 He asked them, "Do you not yet understand?"
Akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ mũtarĩ mũrataũkĩrwo nĩ ũhoro nginya rĩu?”
22 He came to Bethsaida. They brought a blind man to him, and begged Jesus to touch him.
Na maakinya Bethisaida, andũ amwe makĩmũrehera mũndũ warĩ mũtumumu, na magĩthaitha Jesũ amũhutie.
23 He took hold of the blind man by the hand, and brought him out of the village. When he had spit on his eyes, and laid his hands on him, he asked him if he saw anything.
Akĩnyiita mũndũ ũcio mũtumumu guoko, akĩmuumia na nja ya itũũra. Na aarĩkia kũmũtuĩra mata maitho na kũmũigĩrĩra moko, Jesũ akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kũrĩ kĩndũ ũroona?”
24 He looked up, and said, "I see people; they look like trees walking."
Nake agĩtiira maitho, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩndĩrona andũ; no ngoona mahaana ta mĩtĩ magĩthiĩ.”
25 Then again he laid his hands on his eyes. He made him look up, and was restored, and saw everything clearly.
O rĩngĩ Jesũ akĩigĩrĩra mũndũ ũcio moko maitho. Hĩndĩ ĩyo maitho make makĩhingũka, agĩcooka kuona na akĩona indo ciothe wega.
26 He sent him away to his house, saying, "Do not enter into the village."
Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Inũka, na ndũgatoonye itũũra-inĩ.”
27 Jesus went out, with his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his disciples, "Who do people say that I am?"
Jesũ na arutwo ake magĩthiĩ na mbere o nginya tũtũũra-inĩ tũrĩa twarigiicĩirie Kaisarea-Filipi. Na me njĩra-inĩ akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Andũ moigaga niĩ nĩ niĩ ũ?”
28 And they said to him, saying, "John the Baptist, and others say Elijah, but others: one of the prophets."
Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Amwe moigaga wee nĩwe Johana Mũbatithania; angĩ makoiga wee nĩwe Elija; o na angĩ moigaga wee ũrĩ ũmwe wa anabii.”
29 He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answered and said to him, "You are the Christ."
Nake akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ na inyuĩ muugaga atĩa? Muugaga niĩ nĩ niĩ ũ?” Petero akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwe Kristũ.”
30 He commanded them that they should tell no one about him.
Nake Jesũ akĩmakaania matikeere mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ ũhoro wake.
31 He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
Ningĩ Jesũ akĩambĩrĩria kũmaruta atĩ Mũrũ wa Mũndũ no nginya one mathĩĩna maingĩ na aregwo nĩ athuuri, na athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene o na arutani a watho, na atĩ no nginya ooragwo, na thuutha wa mĩthenya ĩtatũ ariũke.
32 He spoke to them openly. Peter took him, and began to rebuke him.
Aaririe ũhoro ũcio atekũhitha, nake Petero akĩmũtwara keheri-inĩ, akĩambĩrĩria kũmũkaania.
33 But he, turning around, and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, and said, "Get behind me, Satan. For you have in mind not the things of God, but the things of humans."
No Jesũ akĩĩhũgũra akĩrora arutwo ake, na agĩkũũma Petero, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Cooka thuutha wakwa, Shaitani! Wee ndwĩciiragia maũndũ moimĩte kũrĩ Ngai, tiga o maũndũ marĩa moimĩte kũrĩ andũ.”
34 He called the crowd to himself with his disciples, and said to them, "If anyone wants to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
Agĩcooka agĩĩta kĩrĩndĩ hamwe na arutwo ake moke harĩ we, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ o wothe ũngĩenda kũnũmĩrĩra, no nginya eerege we mwene, na akuue mũtharaba wake anũmĩrĩre.
35 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it; and whoever will lose his life for my sake and the sake of the Good News will save it.
Nĩgũkorwo ũrĩa wothe wendaga kũhonokia muoyo wake nĩ kũũrwo akoorwo nĩguo, no ũrĩa wothe ũkoorwo nĩ muoyo wake nĩ ũndũ wakwa na nĩ ũndũ wa Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega, nĩakaũhonokia.
36 For what does it profit a person to gain the whole world, and forfeit his soul?
Mũndũ angĩĩguna nakĩ angĩĩgwatĩra thĩ yothe, no orwo nĩ muoyo wake?
37 Or what will a person give in exchange for his soul?
Kana nĩ kĩĩ mũndũ angĩkũũrania na muoyo wake?
38 For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man also will be ashamed of him, when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels."
Mũndũ o wothe ũngĩconoka nĩ ũndũ wakwa na aconoke nĩ ũndũ wa ciugo ciakwa hĩndĩ ĩno ya rũciaro rũrũ rwa ũtharia na rwa mehia, o nake Mũrũ wa Mũndũ nĩakamũconokera rĩrĩa agaacooka arĩ na riiri wa Ithe, arĩ na araika arĩa atheru.”
