Mark 3
1 [On another] ([Sabbath/Jewish day of rest]), Jesus entered (the synagogue/the Jewish meeting place) again. There was a man there whose hand was shriveled.
Yesu wubuela kota diaka mu nzo lukutukunu, kuna kuba mutu wumosi wuba koko kusioka.
2 [Some men of the Pharisee sect] watched him carefully in order to see whether he would heal the man (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day). They did this in order that [if he healed the man], they would accuse him of disobeying [their Jewish laws, because he worked] ([on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day]).
Yesu baba tala keni lenda kumbelusa mu lumbu ki saba muingi babaka bu kumfundila.
3 Jesus said to the man whose hand was shriveled, “Stand up here in front of everyone!” [So the man stood up].
Yesu wukamba mutu wowo wuba koko kusioka: —Telama vana, va ntuala batu boso.
4 Then Jesus said [to the Pharisees], “Do the laws [that God gave Moses] permit people to do good ([on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day]), or do they permit people to do evil? Specifically, do his laws permit us to save a person’s life (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day), or [do they permit us] to let him die [by refusing to help him]?” But they did not reply.
Bosi wuba yuvula: —Minsua midi mu vanga mamboti voti mambimbi mu lumbu ki saba e? Minsuamidi mu vukisa luzingu lu mutu voti mu vonda e?
5 He looked around at them angrily. He was very distressed that they were stubbornly [not wanting to help the man]. So he said to the man, “Reach out your hand!” When the man reached out his withered hand, his hand became all right again!
Vayi kadi mutu kasia vutula kadi diambu ko. Yesu wuba tala mu nganzi ayi weka mona kiadi mu diambu di mintima miawu miba banga matadi. Bosi wukamba kuidi mutu wuba koko kusioka: —Nonuna koko kuaku! Wunonuna kuawu ayi koko kuandi kufuana.
6 Then the Pharisees [decided to get rid of Jesus. So] after they left [the meeting house], they [immediately met with some of] the Jews who supported Herod [Antipas, who ruled Galilee district]. Together they planned how they could kill Jesus.
Vana vawu, Bafalisi batumbu totuka mu nzo lukutukunu, bayenda kaza ayibatu ba dingumba di Elode muingi batomba diluaku di vondila Yesu.
7 Jesus and his disciples left [that] town and went to an area further along [Galilee Lake in order to get away from the people]. But a great crowd of people followed him. They were people who came from Galilee [district],
Yesu ayi minlonguki miandi babotuka vana, bayenda ku ndambu mbu. Vayi nkangu wuwombo wu batu wuba landakana: baba ku Ngalili,
8 from Jerusalem [city], from [other towns of] Judea [district], from Idumea [district], from [the region on] the [east] side of the Jordan [River], and from [the region] around Tyre and Sidon [cities]. This great crowd of people came to him because they heard about what he was doing.
ku Yuda, ku Yelusalemi, ku tsi Idume, ku disimu dinkaka di Yolidani. Batu bobo bazungidila bizunga bi Tile ayi Sidoni bayiza bawombo kuidi niandi bu bawa mambu momo kavanga.
9 Because he had healed many people, many [other] people who had various illnesses pushed forward in order that by touching him [they would come well]. So he told his disciples that they should get a small boat ready for him [to get in and teach from it]. He wanted to do this in order that the crowd would not crush him [when they pushed forward to touch him].
Wukamba minlonguki miandi minkubikila nlungu muingi nkangu wu batu wubika kumfietikisa.
Muaki sumbu kabelusa batu bawombo, diawu bobo baba minsongo balundumuka kuiza kuidi niandi muingi bansimba.
11 Whenever the evil spirits saw Jesus, [they caused the people whom they controlled] to fall down in front of Jesus [in recognition of Jesus’ power]. Then they exclaimed, “You are (the Son of God/the man who is also God)!”
Bosi thangu batu baba ziphevi zimbimbi bammona, babua va ntualꞌandiayi bayamikina: —Ngeyo widi Muana Nzambi!
12 He commanded the [evil spirits] strongly that they should not tell anyone who he was.
Vayi wuba kandika babika zabikisa ti niandi nani.
13 Jesus went [with many other people] up into the hills. After he picked out [from among them] the men whom he wanted [to accompany him], they came [close] to him.
Yesu wukuma va mbata mongo; wutela batu bobo kazola ayi batu beni bayiza kuidi niandi.
14 He appointed twelve men in order that they might be with him and in order that he might send them out to preach. He called them apostles.
Kumi batu buadi kasobula bobo kabieka bamvuala muingi babanga yandi va kimosi;
15 He also gave them power in order that they might expel evil spirits [from people].
ayi muingi kaba fidisa mu kuenda longi ayi mu diambu baba lulendo lu totudila ziphevi zimbimbi.
16 These were the twelve men he appointed: Simon, to whom he gave the [new] name Peter; his [younger] brother Andrew;
Tala mazina makumi batu buadi bobo kasobula:
17 James, [the son] of Zebedee, and John, the [younger] brother of James, to [both of] whom he added the [new] name, ‘Men who are like Thunder’. [because of their fiery zeal];
—Simoni mutu kabieka Piela; Zaki, muana Zebede ayi khombꞌandi Yowani. Wuba vana dizina di Bowanelingesi bu dinsundula “bana ba nzazi”
18 Philip; Bartholomew; Levi, whose other name was Matthew; Thomas; [another] James, the son of Alphaeus; Thaddeus; [another] Simon, who was a [member of the party that wanted] to overthrow [the Roman government];
Andele, Filipi, Balitelemi, Matayi, Toma, Zaki muana Alafayi, Tade, Simoni wuba mu dingumba di Bazeloti
19 and Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]). He was the one who [later] (betrayed Jesus/helped Jesus’ enemies seize him).
ayi Yuda Isikalioti, mutu wuvakusa Yesu.
20 Jesus [along with his disciples] went to the house where he was staying [in Capernaum. Again a crowd gathered where he was]. There were many people crowding around him, so that he and his disciples had no time when they could eat or [when they could do anything else].
Bu kakota mu nzo, nkangu wu batu wuyiza kutakana diaka muna. Yesu ayi minlonguki miandi basia buela baka ko bu dila.
21 After his relatives heard about this, they went to take him home [with them] because (some people/they) were saying that he was insane.
Bibutu biandi bu biwa nsamu beni, biyiza kunlanda mu kingolo bila baba tuba: “Weka dilawu”.
22 [Around that time] some men who taught the [Jewish] laws came down from Jerusalem [city. They heard that Jesus was expelling demons]. So they were telling [people], “Beelzebub, who rules the evil spirits, controls him. He is the one who enables this man to expel evil spirits [from people]!”
Minlongi mi mina miba ku Yelusalemi mituba: —Ku tsi minsua mi Belezebuli kadi. Mu lulendo lu pfumu yi ziphevi zimbimbi kalembo kukila ziphevi zimbimbi.
23 Jesus summoned those men. [Then he spoke to them] in parables [to enable them to realize that Satan would not oppose his own evil spirits. He also wanted them to realize that by expelling evil spirits, he was demonstrating that he was much more powerful than Satan]. So he said, “([It is ridiculous] to suggest that Satan would expel his own [evil spirits]!/Why would Satan expel his own [evil spirits]?) [RHQ]
Buna Yesu wuba tumisa ayi wuba sudikisila mu zinongo: —Buevi Satana kalenda kukila Satana e?
24 If [people who live in the same] country are fighting one another, they will cease to be a single group under one ruler.
Enati kipfumu kivasukidi kiawu veka, buna kipfumu beni kilendi zingila ko.
25 And if [people who live in the same] house fight each other, they will certainly not remain [as one family].
Enati nzo yivasukidi yawu veka, buna nzo beni yilendi zingila ko.
26 Similarly, if Satan and his [evil spirits] were fighting one another, instead of remaining strong, he would become powerless.
Enati Satana weka kinuanisa niandi veka, ayi enati widi wuvasuka, buna, kalendi zingila ko. Tsukulu andi yimonikini.
27 Contrary to [what you say about me], someone can enter the house of a strong man [like Satan] and carry off his possessions only if he first ties up the strong man. Then [and only then] will he [be able to] steal the things in that man’s house.”
Kuisi ko mutu beki bukotila mu nzo yi mutu widi ngolo ayi yiba bima biandi enati kasi tuama kanga ko mutu beni. Buna bosi kalenda baka bu yibila bima bioso bidi mu nzo andi.
28 [Jesus also said], “Consider this carefully! People may sin in many ways and they may speak evilly about God, but [if] they [then are sorry and ask God to] forgive [them], [God] will forgive them for doing that.
Bukiedika ndikulukamba ti masumu moso ayi bifingu biosobilenda fingu Nzambi biela lemvukulu
30 [Jesus told them that] because [they refused to admit that the Holy Spirit was helping him to expel demons. Instead], they were saying, “An evil spirit is controlling him!”
Yesu wubayolukila buawu mu diambu di batu baba tubanga ti: “ku tsi minsua mu pheve yimbimbi kadi”.
31 Jesus’ mother and [younger] siblings arrived. While they stood outside, they sent [someone inside] in order to call him [outside].
Ngudi yi Yesu ayi bakhomba bandi bayiza. Batelama ku nganda ayi batuma mutu mu kuntela.
32 A crowd was sitting around Jesus. One of them said to him, “Listen/Hey, your mother and your [younger] brothers and sisters are outside, and they are wanting (to see/to talk with) you!”
Batu bawombo bavuanda ayi banzungidila Yesu. Buna bayiza ku nkamba: —Tala ngudi aku ayi bakhomba ziaku badi ku nganda ayi ngeyo bantomba.
33 Jesus replied to them, “([I will tell you something about] my mother and my brothers.[/Do you know whom I consider to be like] my mother and my brothers?)” [RHQ]
Yesu wuba vutudila: —A nani ngudi ama ayi banani bakhomba ziama e?
34 After he looked around at [the disciples] who were sitting around him [in a circle], he said, “Look here! I [love these men as much as] I [love] my mother and my brothers.
Bu tala batu bobo bantula va lukongolo, buna wuba kamba: —Tala ngudi ama ayi bakhomba ziama bawu baba.
35 Those who habitually do what God wants are [as dear to me] [MET] as my brother, my sister, or my mother!”
Woso mutu wumvanga luzolo lu Nzambi, niandi khombꞌama yi bakala ayi khombꞌama yi nketo ayi ngudi ama.
