Matthew 9
1 And he entered into a boat, and crossed over, and came into his own city.
Nake agĩtoonya gatarũ, akĩringa iria, agĩkinya itũũra rĩa kwao.
2 And behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, be of good cheer; thy sins are forgiven.
Andũ amwe makĩmũrehera mũndũ warĩ na mũrimũ wa gũkua ciĩga, akuuĩtwo na kĩbarĩ. Rĩrĩa Jesũ oonire wĩtĩkio wao, akĩĩra mũndũ ũcio wakuĩte ciĩga atĩrĩ, “Mũriũ, wĩyũmĩrĩrie, nĩwarekerwo mehia maku.”
3 And behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth.
Nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo, arutani amwe a watho makĩĩra na ngoro atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ nĩaruma Ngai!”
4 And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?
Jesũ aamenya ũrĩa meeciiragia, akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũreciiria ũũru ngoro-inĩ cianyu nĩkĩ?
5 For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven; or to say, Arise, and walk?
Nĩ ũndũ ũrĩkũ mũhũthũ: nĩ kwĩra mũndũ, ‘Nĩwarekerwo mehia maku,’ kana kũmwĩra, ‘Ũkĩra wĩtware?’
6 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins (then saith he to the sick of the palsy), Arise, and take up thy bed, and go unto thy house.
No nĩgeetha mũmenye atĩ Mũrũ wa Mũndũ arĩ na ũhoti gũkũ thĩ wa kũrekanĩra mehia-rĩ ….” Na o hĩndĩ ĩyo akĩĩra mũndũ ũcio wakuĩte ciĩga atĩrĩ, “Ũkĩra, oya kĩbarĩ gĩaku ũinũke mũciĩ.”
7 And he arose, and departed to his house.
Nake mũndũ ũcio agĩũkĩra, akĩinũka mũciĩ.
8 But when the multitudes saw it, they were afraid, and glorified God, which had given such power unto men.
Rĩrĩa kĩrĩndĩ kĩu kĩonire ũguo, gĩkĩmaka na gĩkĩgooca Ngai, ũrĩa waheete andũ ũhoti ta ũcio.
9 And as Jesus passed by from thence, he saw a man, called Matthew, sitting at the place of toll: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him.
Na rĩrĩa Jesũ oimaga kũu, akĩona mũndũ wetagwo Mathayo aikarĩte harĩa heetagĩrio mbeeca cia igooti. Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nũmĩrĩra,” nake Mathayo agĩũkĩra, akĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
10 And it came to pass, as he sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with Jesus and his disciples.
Na rĩrĩa Jesũ aarĩ kwa Mathayo mũciĩ makĩrĩa irio cia hwaĩ-inĩ, etia mbeeca cia igooti aingĩ na andũ ehia magĩũka kũrĩanĩra hamwe nake na arutwo ake.
11 And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why eateth your Master with the publicans and sinners?
Rĩrĩa Afarisai moonire ũguo, makĩũria arutwo ake atĩrĩ, “Mũrutani wanyu arĩĩanagĩra na etia mbeeca cia igooti na andũ ehia nĩkĩ?”
12 But when he heard it, he said, They that are whole have no need of a physician, but they that are sick.
Jesũ aigua ũguo, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Andũ arĩa agima mĩĩrĩ ti o mabataragio nĩ ndagĩtarĩ, no nĩ arĩa arũaru.
13 But go ye and learn what [this] meaneth, I desire mercy, and not sacrifice: for I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.
No rĩrĩ, thiĩi mũkeerute ũrĩa ciugo ici ciugĩte: ‘Kũiguanĩra tha nĩkuo nyendaga, no ti magongona.’ Nĩgũkorwo niĩ ndiokire gũcaria arĩa athingu, no ndokire nĩ ũndũ wa arĩa ehia.”
14 Then come to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not?
Hĩndĩ ĩyo arutwo a Johana magĩũka kũrĩ we makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ithuĩ na Afarisai nĩtwĩhingaga kũrĩa, no nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmaga arutwo aku mage kwĩhinga kũrĩa irio?”
15 And Jesus said unto them, Can the sons of the bride-chamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then will they fast.
Nake Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Ageni a mũhikania mangĩhota atĩa kũigua kĩeha rĩrĩa mũhikania arĩ hamwe nao? Ihinda nĩrĩgakinya rĩrĩa mũhikania akeeherio kũrĩ o; hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩguo makeehinga kũrĩa irio.
16 And no man putteth a piece of undressed cloth upon an old garment; for that which should fill it up taketh from the garment, and a worse rent is made.
“Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũtumagĩrĩra nguo ngũrũ kĩraka kĩa nguo njerũ, nĩgũkorwo kĩraka kĩu no kĩguucie nguo ĩyo gĩtũme ĩtarũke makĩria.
17 Neither do [men] put new wine into old wineskins: else the skins burst, and the wine is spilled, and the skins perish: but they put new wine into fresh wineskins, and both are preserved.
Ningĩ andũ matiĩkagĩra ndibei ya mũhihano mondo-inĩ ngũrũ. Mangĩĩka ũguo, mondo icio no itarũke, nayo ndibei ĩitĩke, na mondo icio cia ndibei cianangĩke o biũ. No andũ mekagĩra ndibei ya mũhihano mondo-inĩ njerũ, nacio cierĩ igaikara irĩ njega.”
18 While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.
Na rĩrĩa aaragia maũndũ macio, hagĩũka mũndũ warĩ mũnene, akĩmũturĩria ndu, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũirĩtu wakwa no hĩndĩ aakua; no ũka ũkamũigĩrĩre guoko, na nĩekũriũka.”
19 And Jesus arose, and followed him, and [so did] his disciples.
Nake Jesũ agĩũkĩra, agĩthiĩ nake, arĩ na arutwo ake.
20 And behold, a woman, who had an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the border of his garment:
O hĩndĩ ĩyo mũtumia watũire oiraga thakame mĩaka ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ agĩũka na thuutha wa Jesũ, akĩhutia gĩcũrĩ kĩa nguo yake.
21 for she said within herself, If I do but touch his garment, I shall be made whole.
Tondũ eĩĩraga atĩrĩ, “Ingĩhutia o nguo yake, no hone.”
22 But Jesus turning and seeing her said, Daughter, be of good cheer; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.
Nake Jesũ akĩĩhũgũra, akĩmuona, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mwarĩ ũyũ, wĩyũmĩrĩrie gwĩtĩkia gwaku nĩkuo gwatũma ũhone.” Nake mũtumia ũcio akĩhonio o hĩndĩ ĩyo.
23 And when Jesus came into the ruler’s house, and saw the flute-players, and the crowd making a tumult,
Na rĩrĩa Jesũ aatoonyire nyũmba ya mũnene ũcio, akĩona ahuhi mĩtũrirũ na gĩkundi kĩa andũ kĩrĩa kĩanegenaga,
24 he said, Give place: for the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn.
akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Eherai. Mũirĩtũ ũyũ ti mũkuũ, nĩ gũkoma akomete.” Nao andũ acio makĩmũthekerera.
25 But when the crowd was put forth, he entered in, and took her by the hand; and the damsel arose.
Thuutha wa andũ acio kuumio nja, agĩtoonya thĩinĩ, akĩnyiita mũirĩtu ũcio guoko, nake agĩũkĩra.
26 And the fame hereof went forth into all that land.
Ũhoro ũcio ũkĩhunja bũrũri ũcio wothe.
27 And as Jesus passed by from thence, two blind men followed him, crying out, and saying, Have mercy on us, thou son of David.
Na rĩrĩa Jesũ oimire kũu, aathianga-rĩ, andũ eerĩ atumumu makĩmũrũmĩrĩra, makĩanagĩrĩra, makiugaga atĩrĩ, “Tũiguĩre tha, wee Mũrũ wa Daudi!”
28 And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They say unto him, Yea, Lord.
Na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aatoonyire nyũmba, atumumu acio magĩũka kũrĩ we, nake akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Nĩmwĩtĩkĩtie atĩ no hote gwĩka ũguo?” Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ-ni, Mwathani.”
29 Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it done unto you.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo akĩmahutia maitho, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũroĩkwo o ũguo mwĩtĩkĩtie;”
30 And their eyes were opened. And Jesus strictly charged them, saying, See that no man know it.
namo maitho mao makĩhingũka magĩcooka kuona. Nake Jesũ akĩmakaania na hinya, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mũtikareke mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ amenye ũhoro ũyũ.”
31 But they went forth, and spread abroad his fame in all that land.
No-o makiumagara na makĩhunjia ũhoro wake bũrũri ũcio wothe.
32 And as they went forth, behold, there was brought to him a dumb man possessed with a devil.
Na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa moimaga hau, Jesũ akĩreherwo mũndũ warĩ na ndaimono, na ndaaragia.
33 And when the devil was cast out, the dumb man spake: and the multitudes marveled, saying, It was never so seen in Israel.
Nayo ndaimono yaingatwo, mũndũ ũcio ũtaaragia, akĩaria. Kĩrĩndĩ gĩkĩgega, gĩkiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũndũ ta ũyũ ndũrĩ woneka Isiraeli.”
34 But the Pharisees said, By the prince of the devils casteth he out devils.
No Afarisai makiuga atĩrĩ, “Aingataga ndaimono na hinya wa mũnene wa ndaimono.”
35 And Jesus went about all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of disease and all manner of sickness.
Nake Jesũ agĩtuĩkania matũũra-inĩ mothe na mĩciĩ-inĩ yothe, akĩrutanaga thĩinĩ wa thunagogi ciao, akĩhunjagia Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa ũthamaki, na akĩhonagia mĩrimũ na ndwari cia mĩthemba yothe.
36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion for them, because they were distressed and scattered, as sheep not having a shepherd.
Na rĩrĩa oonire ũrĩa kĩrĩndĩ kĩu kĩaiganaga, agĩkĩiguĩra tha tondũ kĩarĩ gĩthĩĩnĩku na gĩkaaga ũteithio, ta ngʼondu itarĩ na mũrĩithi.
37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo akĩĩra arutwo ake atĩrĩ, “Magetha nĩ maingĩ, no aruti a wĩra nĩ anini.
38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he send forth labourers into his harvest.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, hooyai Mwathani wa magetha atũme aruti wĩra mathiĩ magetha-inĩ make.”
