Mark 2
1 [Jesus and his disciples] returned to Capernaum [town]. A few days later, because it was {people} heard that Jesus was in [his] house,
Nai usukile ku Kapernaumu ze yakilaa mahiku masheenyu, ai ikumukile kina ai ukoli mi ito.
2 many people gathered there. As a result, [after the people filled the house], there was no longer space to stand [in the house or outside] around the doorway. Jesus preached [God’s] message to them.
Antu idu nangaluu ai atulaa ilundiie pang'wanso hangi shanga ai limoli i lyoma hangi, ga nilo nila pa mulango, nu Yesu ai uligitilye lukan kitalao.
3 Some people came to the house bringing to Jesus a man who was paralyzed. He was carried by four men {Four men carried [him]} [on a sleeping pad].
Uugwa ang'wi a antu ai azile kitalakwe nai amuletile muntu nai watulaa ukule igandi; antu anne ai atulaa amukenkile.
4 They were not able to bring the man to Jesus because there was a crowd there. So they [went up the steps to the flat roof and] removed [some of] the tiles [above] where Jesus was. Then, after they made a [big] hole in the roof, they lowered [by ropes] the sleeping pad on which the paralyzed man lay. They lowered [it through the hole, down in front of Jesus].
Itungo nai alemilwe kumuhumbeela kunsoko a iubi nila antu, ai agumue migulya a kianza pang'wanso nai ukoli. Hangi nai atula akondyaa kutobola ibolomyo, ai asimilye u ulili naiza u muntu nai ukule igandi ai watulaa ulae.
5 After Jesus perceived that the men believed [that he could heal this man], he said to the paralyzed man, “My friend, [I] forgive your sins!”
Nai wihengile u uhuiili nuao, uYesu ai umutambuie u muntu nai ukule igandi, “ng'waane, i milandu ako alekelwa.”
6 There were some men who taught [the Jewish] laws sitting there. They started thinking like this:
Kuiti ang'wi ao a amanyi awo nai akoli ikie pang'wanso ai ikoiye mu nkolo niao.
7 “(Who does this man think he is, talking like that/This man shouldn’t talk like that!) [RHQ]? (He is insulting God!/Does he think he is God?) [RHQ] (No person can forgive sins!/Who can forgive sins?) [RHQ] Only God can forgive sins!”
“Uhumile uli u muntu uyu kuligiya iti? Uku kuna! Nyenyu nuihuma kulekela i milandu kwaala Itunda wing'wene duu?”
8 Jesus sensed that they were deliberating like that within themselves. So he said to them, “(You should not question within yourselves [whether I have the right to forgive this man’s sins]!/Why do you question [whether I have the right to forgive this man’s sins]?) [RHQ]
Itngo uYesu nai ulingile mu nkolo akwe nai atulaa akusiga mukati ao akola. Ai ua tambuie, “Ku niki mukusiga iti mu nkolo nianyu?
9 It is [not risky] [RHQ] for someone to tell the man who is paralyzed, ‘Your sins are forgiven {[I] forgive your sins},’ [because no one can prove that it has happened]. But no one would say to him, ‘Get up, pick up your stretcher, and then walk away’, [unless he really had the power to heal him, because people can easily see whether it happens or not].
Ni liuli ni ipepeele ikilo kuligitya ku muntu nu kule igandi, 'Milandu ako alekelwaa' ang'wi kuligitya 'imike, hola u ulili nuako, hangi uende?'
10 So I [will do something] in order that you may know that [God] has authorized me, the one who came from heaven, to forgive sins on earth [as well as to heal people].” Then he said to the paralyzed man,
Kuiti iti alije kulinga kutula u Ng'wana nuang'wa Adamu ukete u humi nua kulekela i milandu mi ihi, ai umutambuie uyo nai ukule igandi.
11 “To you I say, ‘Get up! Pick up your sleeping pad! And then go home!’”
“Nukutambuie u ewe, nyansuka, hola u mukeka nuako, hangi ulongole kito nilako.”
12 The man stood up immediately! He picked up the sleeping pad, and then he went away, while all the people [there] were watching. They were all amazed, and they praised God and said, “We have never before seen anything like [what happened] just now!”
Ai wimikile hangi nkua ing'wi akahola u mukeka nuakwe, hangi ai ulongoe kunzi a numba ntongeela a kila muntu, iti ihi ai akuiwe hangi akaminkiilya Itunda ikulyo, hangi akaligitya “Nangaluu, kukili kaya kihenga ikani anga ili.”
13 Jesus left [Capernaum town again and walked with his disciples] alongside [Galilee] lake. A large crowd came to him. Then he taught them.
Ai ulongoe hangi mpelo a luzi, ni iumbi lihi nila antu ai azile kitalakwe, hangi waka amanyisa.
14 As he walked on further, he saw a man named Levi, whose other name was Matthew, and whose father’s name was Alpheus. He was sitting in his office where he collected taxes [for the Roman government]. Jesus said to him, “Come with me [and become my disciple]!” So he got up and went with Jesus.
Nai watula ukukila ai umihengile uLawi ng'wana wang'wa Alfayo wikie mu nkika a kuhanguilya i kodi hangi akamuila, “Ntyate.” Ai wimikile nu kumutyata.
15 [Later], Jesus was eating a meal in Levi’s house. Many men who collected taxes and [other] people who were [considered to be] sinning regularly were eating with Jesus and his disciples. [This was not surprising], for there were many people like this who were going [everywhere] with Jesus.
Hangi itungo uYesu nai watulaa ukulya indya mu nyumba ang'wa Lawi, ahangulya kodi idu ni antu niakete i milandu ai atulaa akulya nu Yesu ni amanyisigwa akwe, ku nsoko ai atulaa idu ni enso ai amutyatile.
16 The [men who taught the Jewish] laws [who were there] and who were members of the Pharisee [sect] saw that Jesus was eating with men who collected taxes and [others who were considered] {[whom they considered]} [to be] sinners. So they said to his disciples, “(It is disgusting that he eats with [such disgusting] men as those who collect taxes, and with [other] sinners!/Why is it that he eats with [such disgusting] men as those who collect taxes, and with [other] sinners?)” [RHQ]
Itungo i amanyi, naza atulaa Afarisayo, nai akihenga kina uYesu ukulya ni antu anya milandu ni ahangulya kodi, ai a atambuie i amanyisigwa akwe, “Ku niki ukulya ni ahangulya kodi ni anya milandu?”
17 After Jesus heard [what they were saying], he said to the men who taught the [Jewish] laws, “People who [consider that they] are well do not seek a doctor. On the contrary, it is those who are sick [who seek a doctor] [MET]!” [This he said to indicate that it was those who knew that they had sinned who were coming to him in order that he might help them spiritually]. And he said, “I did not come to invite people [who think that] [IRO] they are righteous [to come to me and turn from their sinful behavior]. On the contrary, I came [from heaven to invite] people who [know that they] are sinners, [in order that they might turn from their sins and come to me].”
Itungo uYesu nai wakija iti ai uatambuie, “Antu niakete u upanga mu muili shanga amutakile u mukiliki; Ingi antu nia lwae ing'wene wawo amutakile. Shanga ai nzile kuitanga i antu niakete itai ane, kuiti antu ni akete i milandu.”
18 The disciples of John [the Baptizer] and some men who belonged to the Pharisee [sect] used to abstain from food [to show that they wanted to please God]. One day, some people came [to Jesus] and asked him [critically], “The disciples of John and the Pharisees (fast/abstain from food) [from time to time], but your disciples do not. [We think they should abstain from food also. What do you say about that] [RHQ]?”
Amanyisigwa ang'wa Yohana ni Afarisayo ai atulaa akudilya kulya. Hangi ang'wi a antu ai azile kitalakwe nu kumuila, “Ku niki i aanyisigwa ang'wa Yohana ni Afarisayo idila kulya, kuiti i amanyisigwa ako shanga akudila kulya?
19 [Jesus wanted them to understand that it was not appropriate for his disciples to show sorrow by abstaining from food while he was still with them]. So he said to them, “When a man is marrying a woman, his friends will certainly not abstain from food while he is still with them, will they [RHQ]? No. During the time that he is with them, they will not abstain from food [because they are happy together].
uYesu ai uatambuie, “Itii niamoli mu winga ahumile kudila kulya itungo u mukulu nua winga waze utuile ukoli palung'wi ni enso? ku lihi u mukulu nua winga anga watule ukoli palung'wi ni enso shanga ahumile kudila kulya.”
20 But some day, he will be taken away {his [enemies] will take him away} from them. Then, in those days, they will abstain from food, [because they will be sad].”
Kuiti mahiku apembilye itungo u mukulu nua winga nuika hegigwa kitalao, nu mu mahiku nanso ni enso akudilya kulya.
21 [Jesus wanted to show that those who desire to live in accordance with his new message should not try to continue to obey the old religious traditions like fasting. So he also said to them], “People do not sew a patch of unshrunken cloth on an old garment [in order to mend a hole]. If they did that, [when they washed the garment, the patch would shrink] and the new [piece of cloth] would tear off more of the old cloth. As a result, the hole would become bigger!
Kutili u muntu nuihilita i kilaka ni kigeni nika ng'wenda mu ng'wenda nui taho, anga itule i kilaka kikutaluka kupuma mu nilanso, ni kigeni kitaluka kupuma mi itaho, hangi ikutula nu utamukwaa ubibi.
22 [Similarly], people do not put newly [squeezed] grape juice into old skin bags [to store it]. If they did that, that juice will burst the skin bags [because they would not stretch when the wine ferments and expands]. As a result both the wine and the skin bags would be ruined! On the contrary, people must put new wine into new skin bags!” [MET]
Kutili muntu wihi nuikitila i magai ni maza mu ntunda ni nkakilu, anga itule iti imagai akubadula i ntunda hangi yahi ibiili magai ni itunda ikulimila. Badala akwe, ika imagai ni maziza mu ntunda ni nziza.
23 On one (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest) Jesus was walking through some grain fields with his disciples. As they were walking along [through the grain fields], the disciples were plucking some of the heads of grain. [They rubbed them in their hands to remove the chaff, and were eating the grain. The laws of Moses permitted people to do that if they were hungry].
Mu luhiku nula kusupya uYesu ai ukiile mu migunda ing'wi, ni amanyisigwa akwe akandya kuhola imatita ang'wi a ngano.
24 [Some of] the Pharisees [saw them doing what they considered to be work. So they] said to him, “Look! (They should not be doing on our (Sabbath day/day of rest) [work] that our laws forbid!/Why are they doing on our (Sabbath day/day of rest) [work] that our laws forbid?) [RHQ]”
Ni Afarisayo akamuila, “Goza, ku niki akituma i kintu naiza ingi nsuta ni ilagiilyo mu luhiku nula kusupya?”
25 [Jesus wanted to show them that the record in the Scriptures indicated that God permitted people to disobey certain religious laws when they needed food]. So he said to them, “[It is written in the Scriptures] what [our revered ancestor, King] David, did when he needed food, and both he and the men with him were hungry. You have read about that, but ([you do not think about what it implies./why do you not think about what it implies]?) [RHQ]
Ai uatambuie, “Shanga ai musomile iko nai witumile uDaudi nai watula mu u ula nua nzala—Ng'wenso palung'wi ni antu nai akoli palung'wi nu ng'wenso?
26 During the time Abiathar was high priest, David entered the big tent [where people worshipped] God [and asked for some bread. The high priest gave him some] of the loaves of bread. That bread was the bread he had presented to God. It was permitted in one of Moses’ laws that only the priests could eat that bread! But David ate some of it. Then he also gave some of it to the men who were with him. [But God did not consider that was wrong!]”
Iti nai ulongoe mu ito nilang'wa Itunda itungo nilang'wa Abiathari nai watulaa kuhani nu mukulu nu kulya u mukate nai uikilwe ntongeela—naza ituile nsuta a malagiilyo ku muntu wihi kulya kwaala akuhani— hangi ai uinkiiye ga ni ang'wi a awo nai atulaa palung'wi nu ng'wenso
27 Jesus said to them further, “[God] established (the day of rest/the Sabbath day) [to help] people! He did not create people to [obey rules about] (the Sabbath/the day of rest)!
uYesu ai uligitilye, U luhiku nula kusupya ai litumilwe ku nsoko a ana adamu, shanga ng'wana adamu ku nsoko a luhiku nula kusupya.
28 And [think about this]: I am the one who came from heaven. So I have the authority [to determine what is right for my disciples to do] (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day)!”
Ku lulo, u Ng'wana nuang'wa Adamu ingi mukulu, ga kuluhiku nula kusupya.
