Mark 5
1 Jesus and his disciples arrived on the [east] side of Lake [Galilee. They landed near] where the Gerasene [people lived].
Awo Yesu n’abayigirizwa be ne batuuka emitala w’ennyanja mu nsi y’Abageresene.
2 There was a man in that region whom evil spirits controlled.
Yesu bwe yali yaakava mu lyato omuntu eyaliko omwoyo omubi n’ajja gy’ali ng’ava mu malaalo.
3 [Because that man was violent and people were afraid of him], they had tied him up many times. [As he grew more violent], no one was able to tie him up any longer, not even with chains,
Omuntu ono yasulanga mu malaalo era yali alaluse nnyo nga tewakyali na muntu asobola kumusiba.
4 because the chains would be broken by him {he would break the chains} whenever he was bound {they bound him} with them. The iron shackles would also be smashed by him {He would also smash the iron shackles} whenever they were fastened {they fastened them} [on his feet].
Emirundi mingi baagezangako okumussa ku mpingu n’okusiba amagulu ge n’enjegere naye byonna ng’abikutulakutula. Ne wataba na muntu w’amaanyi ayinza kumusiba kumunyweza.
5 He lived in one of the caves [where they bury dead people]. During both night and day he would scream among the caves and in the hills. He would also cut himself with [sharp] stones. [That day] he came out of the caves.
Naye bulijjo yatambulanga emisana n’ekiro mu malaalo ne mu nsozi. Yawowoggananga nga bw’akaaba era nga bwe yeesalaasala n’amayinja.
6 As Jesus [and his disciples got] out of the boat, that man saw Jesus from a distance. He immediately ran to Jesus, and then he knelt before him.
Awo bwe yalengera Yesu ng’akyali walako ku nnyanja n’adduka n’agenda eryato we lyagoba, n’asinza Yesu.
7 Jesus said to the evil spirit, “You evil spirit, come out of this man!” [But the demon did not leave quickly]. It shouted very loudly, “Jesus, I [know that you are the] (Son of/man who is also) God, so (we have nothing in common./what do we have in common?) [IDM, RHQ] [So leave me alone] I ask you to promise, knowing God is listening, that you will not torture me [now]!”
N’aleekaana nnyo nti, “Onjagaza ki, ggwe Yesu, Omwana wa Katonda, Ali Waggulu Ennyo? Nkwegayirira, olw’ekisa kya Katonda, tombonyaabonya.”
Kubanga Yesu yali alagidde omwoyo omubi okuva ku musajja.
9 [So, in order to expel the demon more easily], Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He replied, “My name is Crowd/Mob because there are many of us [evil spirits in this man].”
Awo Yesu n’amubuuza nti, “Erinnya lyo ggw’ani?” N’addamu nti, “Erinnya lyange nze Ligyoni, kubanga tuli bangi.”
10 Then the evil spirits fervently kept begging Jesus that he not send them out of the region.
N’amwegayirira nnyo aleme okumugoba mu kitundu ekyo.
11 [At the same time], a large herd of pigs was (grazing/rooting for food) nearby on the hillside.
Awo waaliwo eggana ly’embizzi nnyingi nnyo ku lusozi nga zirya.
12 So the evil spirits pleaded with Jesus, “Allow us to go to the pigs in order that we might enter them!”
Omwoyo omubi ne gwegayirira Yesu nti, “Tusindike mu mbizzi ziri.”
13 He permitted them [to do that]. So the evil spirits left the man and entered the pigs. The herd, [which numbered] about 2,000, rushed down the cliff into the lake, and drowned in the lake.
Yesu n’abakkiriza, ne bava ku musajja ne bayingira mu ggana ly’embizzi. Awo eggana ly’embizzi lyonna ne liserengetera ku kagulungujjo ne lyeyiwa mu nnyanja, embizzi zonna ne zisaanawo.
14 The men who had been tending the pigs ran and reported in the town and the countryside [what had happened. Many people] went to see what had happened.
Awo abaali bazirunda ne badduka mangu ne bagenda bategeeze ab’omu kibuga ne mu byalo ebiriraanyeewo. Abantu bangi ne bajja okulaba ebibaddewo.
15 They came to [the place where] Jesus [was]. Then they saw the man whom evil spirits had [previously] controlled. He was sitting there with clothes on and mentally sound. [As a result], they became afraid [because they thought that Jesus might destroy more of their property]. (OR, [they realized that Jesus must be very powerful].)
Ekibiina ky’abantu ne kikuŋŋaana awali Yesu, naye bwe baalaba omusajja eyaliko ligyoni ng’ayambadde bulungi era ng’ategeera bulungi, ne batya nnyo.
16 The people who had seen what had happened described what had happened to the man whom the evil spirits [previously] controlled. They also described [what had happened to] the pigs.
Abo abaaliwo ne babategeeza ebyatuuka ku musajja eyaliko ddayimooni n’ebyatuuka ku mbizzi.
17 Then the people pleaded with Jesus to leave their region.
Awo abantu ne batandika okwegayirira Yesu abaviire!
18 As Jesus got in the boat [in order to leave], the man whom the evil spirits [previously] controlled begged Jesus, “[Please let me] go with you!”
Yesu bwe yali ng’alinnya mu lyato, omusajja eyali abaddeko baddayimooni n’amwegayirira bagende bonna.
19 But Jesus did not let him [go with him]. On the contrary, he said to him, “Go home to your family and tell them how much the Lord [God] has done for you, and tell them how [God] was kind to you.”
Yesu n’atakkiriza, n’amugamba nti, “Ddayo ewammwe mu bantu bo obabuulire ebintu byonna Mukama by’akukoledde era nga bw’akusaasidde.”
20 So the man left [and traveled around] the Ten Towns [district]. He told people how much Jesus had done for him. All the people [who heard what the man said] were amazed.
Awo omusajja oyo n’agenda ng’atambula mu Dekapoli (ebibuga eby’omu kitundu ekyo) ng’abuulira abantu Katonda bye yali amukoledde byonna. Bonna abaabiwulira ne bawuniikirira nnyo.
21 Jesus [and his disciples] went in a boat back around Lake [Galilee] to where they were before. When they arrived at the shore of the lake, a large crowd gathered around Jesus.
Awo Yesu n’awunguka mu lyato nate n’atuuka emitala w’ennyanja. Abantu bangi ne bakuŋŋaanira w’ali ku lubalama lw’ennyanja.
22 One of the men who presided over a (synagogue/Jewish meeting place), whose name was Jairus, came there. When he saw Jesus, he prostrated himself at his feet.
Omukulu w’ekkuŋŋaaniro erinnya lye Yayiro n’ajja n’agwa w’ali,
23 Then he pleaded with Jesus earnestly, “My twelve-year old daughter is [sick and] nearly dead! [Please] come [to my house] and place your hands on her in order that she will be healed {to heal her}, so that she will not die!”
n’amwegayirira nnyo ng’agamba nti, “Muwala wange abulako katono okufa. Nkwegayiridde jjangu omukwateko omuwonye.”
24 So Jesus [and the disciples] went with him. A large crowd followed [Jesus] and [many] pushed close to him.
Awo Yesu n’agenda naye n’ekibiina ky’abantu kinene ne kimugoberera nga bagenda bamunyigiriza.
25 There was a woman [in the crowd] who had vaginal bleeding [EUP] [every day] for twelve years.
Mu kibiina omwo mwalimu omukazi eyali amaze emyaka kkumi n’ebiri nga mulwadde ekikulukuto ky’omusaayi.
26 She had suffered much while many doctors [treated her]. But although she had spent all [her money] to pay the doctors, she had not been helped {they had not helped her}. Instead, she had become worse [EUP].
Yali yeewuubye mu basawo bangi abaamujanjabanga okumala emyaka egyo gyonna; ne byonna bye yalina nga bimuweddeko, obulwadde ne butawona wabula okweyongera obweyongezi.
27 After she heard that Jesus [healed people], she came [to where he was and pushed] in the crowd [close] behind Jesus.
Yali awulidde ebikwata ku Yesu. Bw’atyo n’ajja nga yeenyigiriza mu kibiina ky’abantu n’atuuka emabega wa Yesu, n’akoma ku kyambalo kye.
28 She did that because she was thinking, “If I [touch him or] even if I touch his clothes, I will be healed {his power will heal me}.” So she touched Jesus’ clothes.
Kubanga yagamba mu mutima gwe nti, “Ne bwe nnaakoma obukomi ku kyambalo kye nzija kuwona.”
29 At once her bleeding stopped. At the same time, she sensed that she had been cured of {that [he] had cured} her illness.
Awo olwakikomako, amangwago ekikulukuto ky’omusaayi ne kikalira n’ategeerera ddala ng’awonye.
30 Jesus [also] immediately sensed that his power had healed someone. So he turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my clothes?”
Amangwago Yesu n’awulira ng’amaanyi agamuvuddemu, n’akyukira ekibiina ky’abantu n’abuuza nti, “Ani akutte ku kyambalo kyange?”
31 [One of] his disciples replied, “You can see that many people are crowding close to you! [Probably many people touched you]! So (why do you ask ‘Who touched me?’[/We are surprised] that you ask ‘Who touched me?’ [RHQ])”
Naye abayigirizwa be ne bamuddamu nti, “Ku bantu abangi bati abakunyigiriza oyinza otya okubuuza nti, ‘Ani ankutteko?’”
32 But Jesus kept looking around in order to see the one who had done it.
Naye Yesu ne yeetoolooza amaaso ge mu bonna alabe oyo amukutteko.
33 The woman was very afraid and trembling. [She thought that Jesus might be angry because she had violated the law that women who had such a] sickness [should not touch other people. But] she knew [that Jesus had healed her]. So she prostrated herself before him. Then she told him truthfully [about what she had done].
Awo omukazi bwe yategeera ekituuseewo n’ajja eri Yesu ng’atidde nnyo era ng’akankana, n’agwa awo mu maaso ga Yesu n’amutegeeza amazima gonna.
34 He said to her, “(Ma’am/Young lady), because you have believed [that I could heal you], I have healed you. You may go home with peace [in your heart/inner being], [because I promise that] you will not be sick [this way any more].”
Yesu n’agamba omukazi nti, “Omuwala, okukkiriza kwo kukuwonyezza, genda mirembe obulwadde bwo buwonedde ddala.”
35 While Jesus was still speaking [to that woman], some people arrived who had come from Jairus’ house. They said [to Jairus], “Your daughter has [now] died. So (it is useless that you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]!/why do you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]?) [RHQ]”
Naye yali akyayogera n’omukazi ababaka ne batuuka nga bava mu maka g’omukulu w’ekuŋŋaaniro, ne babikira Yayiro nti, “Omuwala afudde, noolwekyo tekikyetaagisa kuteganya Muyigiriza.”
36 But when Jesus heard what these men said, he said to Jairus, “Do not think that the situation is hopeless! Just keep believing [that she will live]!”
Yesu n’awulira ebigambo ebyayogerwa wabula n’agamba omukulu w’ekkuŋŋaaniro nti, “Totya, ggwe kkiriza bukkiriza.”
37 Then he allowed only [his three closest disciples], Peter, James, and John, to go with him [to Jairus’ house]. He did not allow any other people to go with him. After they arrived near the house, Jesus saw that the people there were in turmoil. They were weeping and wailing [DOU] loudly.
Awo Yesu n’aziyiza ekibiina kyonna okugenda naye, okuggyako Peetero ne Yakobo ne Yokaana muganda wa Yakobo.
Bwe baatuuka mu nju y’omukulu w’ekkuŋŋaaniro, n’alaba okwaziirana ng’abantu bakaaba nga bakuba ebiwoobe.
39 He entered the house and then he said to them, knowing that [he was going to cause her to live again], “(Do not make such a disturbance!/Why are you making such a disturbance?) [RHQ] Stop crying, for the child is not dead! On the contrary, she is [only] sleeping [HYP, EUP]!”
Bwe yayingira mu nju n’agamba abantu nti, “Mwaziiranira ki n’okukuba ebiwoobe? Omwana tafudde naye yeebase bwebasi!”
40 The people laughed at him, [because they knew that she was dead]. But he sent all the other people outside the house. Then he took the child’s father and mother and the [three disciples] who were with him. He went into [the room] where the child was [lying].
Awo abantu bonna ne bamusekerera nnyo. Naye n’abagamba bonna bafulume mu nju. N’atwala abazadde b’omwana n’abayigirizwa be abasatu n’ayingira nabo mu kisenge omwana mwe yali.
41 He took hold of the child’s hand and said to her [in her own language], “Talitha, Koum!” That means, “Little girl, get up!”
Yesu n’akwata omwana ku mukono n’amugamba nti, “Talisa kumi!” amakulu nti, “Omuwala golokoka!”
42 At once the girl got up and walked around. ([It was not surprising that she could walk], because she was twelve years old.) [When this happened, all who were present] were very astonished.
Amangwago omuwala eyali aweza emyaka kkumi n’ebiri, n’ayimirira n’atambulatambula. Abaaliwo ne bawuniikirira nnyo.
43 Jesus ordered them strictly, “Do not tell anyone about [what I have done]!” Afterwards he told them that something to eat should be brought to the girl {that they should bring the girl something to eat}.
Naye Yesu n’abakuutira nnyo baleme okubuulirako omuntu yenna. Awo n’abalagira bawe omwana ekyokulya.
