Mark 16
1 [On Saturday evening] when (the Sabbath/the Jewish day of rest) had ended, Mary [from] Magdala, Mary the mother of the [younger] James, and Salome bought fragrant ointment. [The Jews had a custom of] anointing bodies [before they buried them, and the women wanted to follow this custom].
niwa i vi u asabarchi a wuce Maryamu ba magadaliya mba salome ba ka nji izyi kpa ye nde ba gban ni yesu nikpa
2 So very early on Sunday, [just after] the sun rose, they [took the fragrant ointment] and started toward the tomb.
ni bwubwu ble ni vi mule u satia u ba hi ni beh ni nza hongan
3 [While they were going there], they were saying to each other, “Who will roll away for us the stone [that blocks] the entrance of the tomb?”
u ba myen kpamba a di a nhan ni nyiu tita rju ni tawu ni yiu beh hia?
4 [After they arrived], they looked up and saw that the stone had [already] been rolled away {that someone had [already] rolled away the stone}. [They were surprised because it] would have been difficult to move such a huge stone.
u ba nzu shishi ya na toh ba nyiu tita rju ye tita a ki kle ma gbenme
5 They entered the tomb and saw [an angel who looked like] a young man. He was sitting at the right side [of the cave]. He was wearing a [shining] white robe. As a result, they were astonished.
u ba luri ni mi na toh vren nze ri sur nklo kinkle son ni wo kori uba bwu yiu
6 The young man said to them, “Do not be astonished! I [know that] you are looking for Jesus, the man from Nazareth, who was nailed to a cross {whom they nailed to a cross}. But he has become alive again! He is not here! Look! [Here is] the place where they placed his [body].
wa hla ni bawu na bwu yiu na bi si wa yesu ba nazaraten wa ba giciye niwu alude n a na hei na ya ige bubu wa ba kah yo yi
7 But, instead [of remaining here], go and tell his disciples. Particularly [be sure] that you tell Peter. Tell them, ‘[Jesus] is going ahead of you to Galilee [district], and you will see him there, just like he told you [previously’]!”
ama bika hi kpambi ni ha ni almajere ma nie Bitrus a hei koshishi si hi ni galilis ni mun bi toh nawa a hla ni yiua
8 The women went outside and ran from the tomb. They were trembling [because they were afraid], and they were astonished. But they did not say anything to anyone [about this] while they were going, because they were afraid.
u ba dorju ni mi beh ni wi likpa ni bwuyiu bana ya tre kpieri me ni kpambana nitu sisir
9 (note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) [When Jesus became alive [again] early on Sunday morning, he appeared first to Mary [from] Magdala [town]. She was the woman from whom he had [previously] expelled seven evil spirits.
(note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) nta shime ni bwumble ni vi u mumlan u satia da guchi ye rju ni mary magadaliya na ju meme ibrji tar gban rju niwu
10 She went to those who had been with [Jesus], while they were mourning and crying. She told them [what she had seen].
wa hi na kah bla nibi wa ba hei ni wua da katsira ba si ta mre da ni yi
11 But when she told them that Jesus was alive again and that she had seen him, they refused to believe it.
i ba wo da hei ni rei u wawu toh ni shishima ama u bana kpa nyeme na
12 Later [that day], Jesus appeared to two of [his disciples] while they were walking [from Jerusalem to their homes in] the [surrounding] area. [But they did not recognize him quickly because] he looked very different.
wa rju ni babwu ha mba ni kon rimu kan yada ba rju nigbua zren sihi kpamba
13 [After they recognized him], those two went back [to Jerusalem. They told his other followers what had happened], but they did not believe it.
14 Later he appeared to the eleven [apostles] while they were eating. He rebuked them because they had stubbornly refused to believe [the reports of] those who saw him after he had become alive again.
ni ko ngo ki yesu lu rju ni wolon don ri uba si rila ni tu tebru wa pwa ba tre nitu wa bana kpanyemena da nsei tu da na kpanyemen ni biwa da toh shishi nishishi na hla ba hi wu a ndi alude na
15 [Later] he said to them, “Go into the whole world and preach the good message to everyone!
a hla bawu ndu ba hi na hla tre ma ni ndi bi rgbungbulu ba kagon wawusu
16 Everyone who believes [your message] and who is baptized will be saved {[God] will save}. But everyone who does not believe it will be condemned {[God] will condemn}.
indi wa a kpa nyeme na ndu ba yi batisma niwua ani nawo indi wa ana kpa nyemen na ani rilu
17 Those who believe [my good message] will perform miracles. Specifically, by my power they will expel evil spirits. They will speak in languages that they have not learned.
ba toh tie bi yii ni biwa ba kpatre rji ba zu brji ni nde mu ba tre lme sama
18 If they pick up snakes [accidentally] or if they drink any poisonous [liquid accidentally], they will not be hurt. [Whenever] they put their hands on sick [people in order that God will heal them], those sick people will become well.”
ba ya vuwam ni wo ana tie ba kpie na ko ba so meme gbugbulu ana tie ba kpie na
19 After the Lord Jesus had said this to [the disciples, he was taken] {[God] took him} up into heaven. Then he sat down on his throne beside God [to rule with him].
yesu tre kle ni ba wu uba ban hi ni shulu waka son ni wo ko ri irji
20 [As for the disciples], they went out [from Jerusalem, and then they preached everywhere. Wherever they went], the Lord enabled them to perform miracles. [By doing that], he showed people that God’s message is true.
u baluri blatre rji kango gbungbulu a irji ni zo ba na kpanyeme ni tre mba nikpii wa a tre ba tie baa
