< Mark 1 >

1 The beginning of the Good News of Yeshua the Messiah, the Son of God.
Mmalite oziọma maka Jisọs Kraịst, Ọkpara Chineke.
2 As it is written in Isaiah the prophet, "Look, I send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.
Dịka e dere ya rịị nʼakwụkwọ Aịzaya onye amụma sị, “Aga m ezipu onyeozi m nʼihu gị, onye ga-edozi ụzọ gị.”
3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Prepare the way of the Lord. Make his roads straight.'"
“Otu onye na-eti mkpu nʼọzara, na-asị, ‘Dozienụ ụzọ maka Onyenwe anyị, meenụ ka okporoụzọ ya guzozie.’”
4 John came immersing in the wilderness and proclaiming the immersion of repentance for forgiveness of sins.
Jọn omee baptizim pụtara na-eme baptizim nʼọzara, ma na-ekwusa baptizim nke nchegharị maka mgbaghara mmehie.
5 And all the country of Judea went out to him and all those from Jerusalem, and they were immersed by him in the Jordan river, confessing their sins.
Ndị mmadụ si nʼakụkụ Judịa niile na ndị niile bi na Jerusalem pụrụ jekwuru ya. Ka ha na-ekwupụta mmehie ha, o mere ha baptizim nʼosimiri Jọdan.
6 And John was clothed with camel's hair and a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey.
Uwe Jọn yi nʼahụ ya bụ nke e ji ajị ịnyịnya kamel mee. O kekwara ihe okike e ji akpụkpọ anụ mee nʼukwu ya. Nri ya bụ igurube na mmanụ aṅụ.
7 And he preached, saying, "After me comes he who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen.
O kwusara sị: “Onye dị ike karịa m na-abịa nʼazụ m. Onye m na-erughị ihudata ala tọpụ eriri akpụkpọụkwụ ya.
8 I immersed you in water, but he will immerse you in the Ruach ha-Kodesh."
Eji m mmiri na-eme unu baptizim, ma ọ ga-eji Mmụọ Nsọ mee unu baptizim.”
9 And it happened in those days, that Yeshua came from Natzeret of Galil, and was immersed by John in the Jordan.
Nʼoge ahụ, Jisọs sitere na Nazaret nke Galili bịa nʼosimiri Jọdan, ebe Jọn mere ya baptizim.
10 Immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens parting, and the Ruach descending on him like a dove.
Ma mgbe o si nʼime mmiri ahụ na-apụta, ọ hụrụ ka eluigwe meghere. Hụkwa Mmụọ Nsọ dị ka nduru ka ọ rịdatara bekwasị ya nʼisi ya.
11 And a voice came out of the sky, "You are my beloved Son, with you I am well pleased."
Otu olu si nʼeluigwe daa, “Ị bụ Ọkpara m hụrụ nʼanya, ihe gị dị m ezi mma.”
12 And immediately the Ruach drove him out into the wilderness.
Ngwangwa, Mmụọ Nsọ duuru ya baa nʼime ọzara.
13 And he was in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals; and the angels were serving him.
Ọ nọkwara nʼime ọzara ahụ iri ụbọchị anọ, ebe ekwensu nwara ya ọnwụnwa. Ya na ụmụ anụ ọhịa nọkwa. Ma ndị mmụọ ozi jeere ya ozi.
14 Now after John was taken into custody, Yeshua came into Galil, proclaiming the Good News of God,
Mgbe e tinyesịrị Jọn nʼụlọ mkpọrọ, Jisọs gara na Galili, na-ekwusa oziọma Chineke.
15 and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the Kingdom of God is near. Repent, and believe in the Good News."
Ọ sịrị, “Oge ahụ eruola, alaeze Chineke dị nso. Chegharịanụ ma kwerekwanụ nʼoziọma.”
16 And passing along by the Lake of Galil, he saw Shim'on and Andrew the brother of Shim'on casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen.
Mgbe Jisọs na-aga nʼakụkụ osimiri Galili, ọ hụrụ Saimọn na Andru nwanne ya, ka ha na-awụnye ụgbụ ha nʼime mmiri nʼihi na ha bụ ndị ọkụ azụ.
17 And Yeshua said to them, "Come, follow me, and I will make you into fishers of people."
Jisọs siri ha, “Bịanụ soro m, m ga-emekwa unu ndị ọkụ na-akụta mmadụ.”
18 And immediately they left the nets, and followed him.
Ngwangwa ha hapụrụ ụgbụ azụ ha ma soro ya.
19 And going on a little further, he saw Jacob the son of Zavdai, and John, his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.
Mgbe ọ gatụrụ nʼihu nke nta, ọ hụrụ Jemis nwa Zebedi na nwanne ya bụ Jọn ndị nọ nʼime ụgbọ mmiri, na-ekezi ụgbụ azụ ha.
20 And immediately he called them, and they left their father, Zavdai, in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.
Ngwangwa, ọ kpọrọ ha, ha hapụrụ nna ha Zebedi na ndị o goro ọrụ nʼime ụgbọ soro ya.
21 And they went into Kfar-Nahum, and immediately on the Sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and taught.
Ha gara Kapanọm, mgbe ụbọchị izuike ruru, ọ bara nʼime ụlọ ekpere ma malite izi ha ihe.
22 And they were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
Ozizi ya juru ha anya nke ukwuu, nʼihi na o ziri ha ihe dịka onye nwere ikike, ọ bụghị dị ka nke ndị ozizi iwu.
23 And just then there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he shouted,
Ma nʼotu oge ahụ, otu nwoke nọ nʼime ụlọ ekpere ahụ nke mmụọ na-adịghị ọcha bi nʼime ya, tiri mkpu nʼoke olu,
24 saying, "What do we have to do with you, Yeshua of Natzeret? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are: the Holy One of God."
sị, “Gịnị ka anyị na gị nwekọrọ, gị Jisọs onye Nazaret? Ị bịala ịla anyị nʼiyi? Amaara m onye ị bụ, Onye Nsọ nke Chineke.”
25 And Yeshua rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him."
Ma Jisọs baara ya mba sị ya, “Mechie ọnụ sikwa nʼime ya pụta!”
26 And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.
Mmụọ ahụ na-adịghị ọcha seere ya, mee ka ahụ ya maa jijiji, o tiri mkpu nʼoke olu, ma sikwa nʼime ya pụta.
27 And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, "What is this? A new teaching? For with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him."
Ha niile bụ ndị nọ nʼọnọdụ ihe iju anya ma na-ajụrịtara onwe ha ajụjụ sị, “Gịnị bụ nke a? Ozizi ọhụrụ ya na ikike! Ọ na-enye ọ bụladị mmụọ na-adịghị ọcha iwu. Ha na-erubekwara ya isi.”
28 And at once the news of him went out everywhere into all the region of Galil and its surrounding area.
Akụkọ banyere ya gbasara ngwangwa ruo akụkụ niile nke Galili.
29 And immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Shim'on and Andrew, with Jacob and John.
Ngwangwa ha hapụrụ ụlọ ekpere ahụ, ha na Jemis na Jọn soro banye nʼụlọ Saimọn na Andru.
30 Now Shim'on's mother-in-law was sick in bed with a fever, and immediately they told him about her.
Nʼoge a, nne nwunye Saimọn dina nʼakwa ndina. Ahụ ọkụ jikwa ya. Ha mere ka ọ mata banyere ya.
31 And he came and took her by the hand, and raised her up. The fever left her, and she served them.
Ọ gakwuru ya, jide ya nʼaka selite ya elu. Ahụ ọkụ ahụ hapụrụ ya. Ọ malitekwara ile ha ọbịa.
32 At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all who were sick, and those who were possessed by demons.
Nʼoge uhuruchi, mgbe anwụ dara, ha kpọtaara ya ndị niile ahụ na-esighị ike na ndị mmụọ ọjọọ bi nʼime ha.
33 And all the city was gathered together at the door.
Obodo ahụ niile gbakọrọ nʼọnụ ụzọ.
34 And he healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons. He did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew him.
Ọ gwọrọ ọtụtụ ndị bu ọrịa dị iche iche, ọ chụpụkwara ọtụtụ mmụọ ọjọọ ma o kweghị ka mmụọ ọjọọ ndị ahụ kwuo okwu nʼihi na ha matara onye ọ bụ.
35 And early in the morning, while it was still dark, he rose up and went out, and departed into a deserted place, and prayed there.
Nʼisi ụtụtụ, mgbe ọchịchịrị ka gbachiri, o biliri, ga ebe ọ ga-anọrọ onwe ya, naanị ya. Nʼebe ahụ kwa ka ọ nọ kpee ekpere.
36 And Shim'on and those who were with him followed after him;
Saimọn na ndị ya na ha nọ pụrụ na-achọgharị ya.
37 and they found him, and told him, "Everyone is looking for you."
Ma mgbe ha hụrụ ya, ha sịrị ya, “Mmadụ niile na-achọgharị gị!”
38 And he said to them, "Let us go somewhere else into the next towns, that I may preach there also, because I came out for this reason."
Ọ zaghachiri ha sị, “Ka anyị gaanụ ebe ọzọ, nʼobodo ndị ọzọ dị anyị gburugburu, ka m zisakwaara ha oziọma. Ọ bụ nʼihi nke a ka m ji bịa.”
39 And he went into their synagogues throughout all Galil, preaching and casting out demons.
Ya mere, ọ pụrụ jegharịa na Galili niile na-ekwusa oziọma nʼụlọ ekpere ha niile, na-achụpụkwa mmụọ ọjọọ.
40 And a leper came to him, begging him, and knelt down and said to him, "Lord, if you want to, you can make me clean."
Otu onye ekpenta bịakwutere ya gbuo ikpere nʼala rịọọ ya sị, “Ọ bụrụ na ị chọrọ, ị pụrụ ime ka m dị ọcha.”
41 And being moved with compassion, he stretched out his hand, and touched him, and said to him, "I am willing. Be cleansed."
Ebe o jupụtara nʼọmịiko, Jisọs setịpụrụ aka ya metụ ya sị, “Achọrọ m, dị ọcha!”
42 And immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was made clean.
Ngwangwa ekpenta ya hapụrụ ya, e mekwara ka ọ dị ọcha.
43 And he strictly warned him, and immediately sent him out,
Mgbe ahụ, Jisọs ji ịdọ aka na ntị zilaga ya,
44 and said to him, "See you say nothing to anyone, but go show yourself to the cohen, and offer for your cleansing the things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them."
ọ gwara ya sị, “Hụkwa na ọ dịghị onye ọbụla ị ga-agwa ihe a. Kama gaa gosi onye nchụaja onwe gị. Chụọkwa aja dị ka Mosis nyere nʼiwu, maka ime ka ị dị ọcha gị, ka ọ bụrụ ihe ama nye ha.”
45 But he went out, and began to proclaim it freely, and to spread about the matter, so that Yeshua could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places: and they came to him from everywhere.
Ma ọ pụrụ malite ịkọsa akụkọ banyere ọgwụgwọ ya ebe niile. Nʼihi ya Jisọs enwekwaghị ike ịbanye nʼobodo, kama ọ gara nọrọ nʼebe zoro ezo. Ma ndị mmadụ na-abịakwutekwa ya site nʼebe niile dị iche iche.
