Mark 7
1 And there come together to him the Pharisees, and some of the scribes, who came from Jerusalem;
Mgbe ndị Farisii na ụfọdụ ndị ozizi iwu sitere Jerusalem bịa gbara ya gburugburu,
2 and seeing some of his disciples eating bread with defiled, that is, unwashed hands,
ha hụrụ na ụfọdụ ndị na-eso ụzọ ya ji aka na-adịghị ọcha, ya bụ aka a na-akwọghị akwọ, na-eri nri.
3 (for the Pharisees, and all the Jews, unless they wash their hands often, do not eat, holding fast the tradition of the elders;
Ndị Farisii na ndị Juu niile adịghị eri nri ma ọ bụrụ na ha akwọghị aka, nʼihi na ha na-ejigidesi aka ike nʼozizi na omenaala nke ndị okenye.
4 and on coming from the marketplace, unless they bathe, they do not eat; and there are many other things which they have received to hold, the dipping of cups, and pitchers, and brazen vessels; )
Mgbe ọbụla ha si nʼahịa lọta, ha adịghị eri nri ma ọ bụghị ma ha sachara onwe ha. Ha na-edebekwa ọtụtụ omenaala ndị ọzọ dị ka ịsacha iko, na ite mmiri na ketụlụ.
5 then the Pharisees and scribes ask him, Why do not thy disciples walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with defiled hands?
Ya mere ndị Farisii na ndị ozizi iwu jụrụ ya sị, “Gịnị mere ndị na-eso ụzọ gị adịghị ebi nʼusoro omenaala ndị okenye. Karịa iji aka na-adịghị ọcha rie nri ha?”
6 And he said to them, Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, “This people honoreth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
Ọ sịrị ha, “Amụma ahụ Aịzaya buru banyere unu ndị ihu abụọ bụ eziokwu; dị ka e dere ya sị, “‘Ndị a ji egbugbere ọnụ ha na-asọpụrụ m, ma obi ha dị anya nʼebe m nọ.
7 But in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.”
Ofufe ha na-efe m bụ ihe efu, ozizi ha bụkwa ihe mmadụ nyere nʼiwu.’
8 Laying aside, the commandment of God, ye hold fast the tradition of men.
Unu atụfuola iwu Chineke ma jidesiekwa aka ike nʼomenaala nke mmadụ.”
9 And he said to them, Full well do ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your tradition!
Ma ọ gwakwara ha sị, “Unu nwere ụzọ dị mma nʼanya unu nke unu ji wezuga iwu Chineke ma were omenaala unu dochie nʼọnọdụ ya.
10 For Moses said, “Honor thy father and thy mother;” and, “He that curseth father or mother, let him surely die.”
Nʼihi na Mosis sịrị, ‘Sọpụrụ nne gị na nna gị,’na, ‘onye ọbụla kwujọrọ nne maọbụ nna ya ka e gbuo ya.’
11 But ye say, If a man say to his father or mother, Whatever thou mightst receive in aid from me is Corban, that is, a gift to God, [[he is not bound by the command. Thus]]
Ma unu na-asị, na ọ bụrụ na mmadụ asị nne ya maọbụ nna ya, ‘Ihe ọbụla bụ nke ị gara erite nʼaka m bụ kọban,’ (nke pụtara onyinye dịrị Chineke).
12 ye suffer him no longer to do anything for his father or his mother;
Nʼụzọ dị otu a, unu na-akwagide ndị mmadụ ka ha hapụ inyere nne na nna ha aka.
13 making void the word of God by your tradition, which ye have handed down; and many such things ye do.
Nʼụzọ dị otu a, unu na-eme okwu Chineke ka ọ bụrụ ihe efu, site nʼomenaala unu nke unu nyefere nʼaka ndị ọzọ. Ọ dịkwa ọtụtụ ihe ndị ọzọ dị ka nke a unu na-eme.”
14 And again calling the multitude to him, he said to them, Hearken to me all of you, and understand.
Ọzọkwa, ọ kpọrọ igwe mmadụ ahụ sị ha, “Geenụ m ntị onye ọbụla, ma ghọtakwanụ nke a.
15 Nothing that entereth into a man from without can defile him; but the things that come out of him are what defile a man.
Ọ dịghị ihe ọbụla banyere nʼime mmadụ pụrụ imerụ mmadụ, kama ihe na-emerụ mmadụ bụ ihe ahụ na-esite nʼime ya na-apụta.”
Onye ọbụla nwere ntị ịnụ ihe, ya nụrụ.
17 And when he had gone into the house from the crowd, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.
Mgbe ọ hapụrụ igwe ndị mmadụ ahụ banye nʼime ụlọ, ndị na-eso ụzọ ya jụrụ ya maka ilu a.
18 And he saith to them, Are ye too so without discernment? Do ye not understand that whatever thing from without entereth into a man, cannot defile him?
Ọ sịrị ha, “Unu ọ ka dị ka ndị na-enweghị nghọta? Ọ bụ unu aghọtaghị na ihe ọbụla banyere nʼime mmadụ apụghị imerụ ya.
19 because it entereth not into his heart, but into the stomach; and goeth out into the drain, which cleanseth all kinds of food.
Nʼihi na ihe dị otu a anaghị abanye nʼobi ha, kama ọ na-abanye nʼime afọ ha, si nʼebe ahụ a nyụpụ ya nʼụlọ nsị.” (Site nʼikwu otu a, o mere ka ihe oriri niile dị ọcha.)
20 And he said, That which cometh out of a man, that defileth a man.
Ọ sịkwara, “Ọ bụ ihe sitere nʼime mmadụ pụta na-emerụ ya.
21 For from within, out of the heart of men, come forth evil thoughts, fornications,
Nʼihi na ọ bụ nʼime obi mmadụ ka echiche ọjọọ niile si apụta, ya na ịkwa iko niile dị iche iche, izu ohi, igbu mmadụ,
22 thefts, murders, adulteries, covetousness, iniquities, deceit, wantonness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness.
ịkwa iko nke ndị nwere di na nwunye, ọchịchọ ịdọtara onwe gị ihe ndị ọzọ nwere, ekworo, aghụghọ niile, adịghị ọcha niile, inwe anya ụfụ nʼebe ndị ọzọ nọ, nkwulu niile, nganga na enweghị uche ọbụla.
23 All these evil things come from within, and defile a man.
Ihe ọjọọ ndị a niile na-esite nʼime mmadụ a pụta. Ha bụkwa ihe na-emerụ mmadụ.”
24 And rising up, he departed thence into the borders of Tyre; and entering into a house, he desired that no one should know it; but he could not escape notice.
Ọ hapụrụ ebe ahụ gaa nʼakụkụ obodo Taịa. Nʼebe ahụ ọ banyere nʼime otu ụlọ. Ma o nwekwaghị ike izo onwe ya, nʼagbanyeghị na ọ chọghị ka a mata na ọ nọ ebe ahụ.
25 But a woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, immediately hearing of him, came in, and fell at his feet.
Ngwangwa, otu nwanyị nwere otu nwa nwanyị ntakịrị nke mmụọ na-adịghị ọcha bi nʼime ya nụrụ maka ya, ọ bịara daa nʼụkwụ ya.
26 The woman was a Greek, a Syrophoenician by nation; and she besought him that he would cast out the demon from her daughter.
Nwanyị a bụ onye Griik a mụrụ nʼakụkụ Sairo-Fonisia. Ọ rịọrọ ya ka ọ chụpụrụ ya mmụọ ọjọọ ahụ bi nʼime nwa ya nwanyị.
27 And he said to her, Let the children be filled first; for it is not well to take the children's bread and throw it to the little dogs.
Ọ sịrị ya, “Hapụ ka ụmụntakịrị buru ụzọ rie ihe, nʼihi na o zighị ezi na a ga-ewere nri ụmụntakịrị tụpụrụ nkịta.”
28 But she answered, and saith to him, Yea, Lord; even the little dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.
Ma ọ zaghachiri ya sị, “Onyenwe m, ma ụmụ nkịta na-erikwa iberibe nri ụmụntakịrị si na tebul tụpụ nʼala.”
29 And he said to her, For this saying go thy way; the demon hath gone out of thy daughter.
Mgbe ahụ, ọ sịrị ya, “Nwanyị, ị zara nke ọma, nʼihi ọsịsa gị, laa, mmụọ ọjọọ ahụ ahapụla nwa gị nwanyị ugbu a.”
30 And going away to her house, she found the child laid upon the bed, and the demon gone out.
Ọ laghachiri nʼụlọ ya, hụ nwantakịrị ahụ ka o dina nʼelu ihe ndina, mmụọ ọjọọ ahụ apụọkwala.
31 And again leaving the borders of Tyre, he came through Sidon to the lake of Galilee, through the midst of the borders of Decapolis.
Emesịa, ọ hapụrụ akụkụ Taịa gabiga Saịdọn bịaruo nʼosimiri Galili ruo nʼobodo ndị dị na Dekapọlịs.
32 And they bring to him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech, and beseech him to lay his hand upon him.
Ha duteere ya otu nwoke ntị chịrị, nke na-asụkwa oke nsụ. Ha rịọrọ ya ka o bikwasị ya aka.
33 And taking him aside from the multitude, he put his fingers into his ears, and having spit, touched his tongue;
O duuru ya pụọ nʼebe igwe mmadụ ahụ nọ, rụnye ya mkpịsịaka nʼime ntị ya abụọ. Mgbe ahụ ọ gbụpụkwara ọnụ mmiri metụkwa ya aka nʼire.
34 and looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith to him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.
O leliri anya nʼeluigwe sụọ ude sị ya, “Ef fata,” nke pụtara “Meghee!”
35 And his ears were opened; and the string of his tongue was immediately loosed, and he spoke plain.
Ngwangwa, ntị ya meghere, a tọpụkwara ire ya, ọ malite ikwu okwu nke ọma.
36 And he charged them to tell no one; but the more he charged them, the more did they publish it.
Jisọs nyere ha iwu ka ha ghara ịgwa onye ọbụla, ma mgbe ọ na-eme nke a ha gara nʼihu na-akọsa ya ebe niile.
37 And they were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well; he maketh both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.
Ọ tụrụ ha nʼanya nke ukwuu, ha kwuo sị, “O meela ihe niile nke ọma. Ọ na-eme ka ọ bụladị ndị ntị chiri nụ ihe, ma mee ka ndị ogbi kwuo okwu.”
