Mark 6
1 Jesus left [Capernaum city and went to his hometown, Nazareth]. His disciples went with him.
Jesu fi ibẹ̀ sílẹ̀ lọ sí ìlú rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀.
2 (On the Sabbath/On the Jewish rest day), [he entered] the Jewish worship house and taught [the people]. Many who were listening to him were astonished. [But some] were saying, “[This man is just an ordinary person like we are! So (we cannot believe that] this man [is able to teach us] about these things and that he has been made very wise {that [God] has made him very wise} and that he is performing such miracles![/how is it that] [RHQ] this man [is able to teach us] about these things and that he has been made very wise {that [God] has made him very wise} and that he is performing such miracles?) [RHQ]
Nígbà tí ó di ọjọ́ ìsinmi, ó lọ sí Sinagọgu láti kọ́ àwọn ènìyàn, ẹnu sì ya àwọn ènìyàn púpọ̀ tí ó gbọ́. Wọ́n wí pé, “Níbo ni ọkùnrin yìí gbé ti rí nǹkan wọ̀nyí? Irú ọgbọ́n kí ni èyí tí a fi fún un, tí irú iṣẹ́ ìyanu báyìí ń ti ọwọ́ rẹ̀ ṣe?
3 ([We know that] he is [just an ordinary] carpenter!/Isn’t he [just an ordinary] carpenter [RHQ]?) [We know him and his family! We know] Mary his mother! ([We know] his [younger] brothers James, Joses, Judas and Simon!/Are not his [younger] brothers James, Joses, Judas and Simon?) [RHQ] And (his [younger] sisters also live here in this town!/do not his [younger] sisters also live here in this town?) [RHQ]” So they despised him.
Gbẹ́nàgbẹ́nà náà kọ́ yìí? Ọmọ Maria àti arákùnrin Jakọbu àti Josẹfu, Judasi àti Simoni? Àwọn arábìnrin rẹ̀ gbogbo ha kọ́ ni ó ń bá wa gbé níhìn-ín yìí?” Wọ́n sì kọsẹ̀ lára rẹ̀.
4 Jesus [knew that they refused to believe in him]. So he said to them, “[It is certainly true that] people honor [me and other] prophets [in other places, but] not in our hometowns! Even our relatives and the people who live in our own houses do not honor us!”
Nígbà náà, Jesu wí fún wọn pé, “A máa ń bu ọlá fún wòlíì níbi gbogbo àfi ní ìlú ara rẹ̀ àti láàrín àwọn ìdílé àti àwọn ẹbí òun pàápàá.”
5 [So], although he healed a few sick people there by touching them, he [decided] not to perform many [other] miracles [in Nazareth] because the people there did not believe that he was the Messiah.
Nítorí àìgbàgbọ́ wọn, òun kò lè ṣe iṣẹ́ ìyanu ńlá láàrín wọn, àfi àwọn aláìsàn díẹ̀ tí ó gbé ọwọ́ lé lórí, tí wọ́n sì rí ìwòsàn.
6 He was amazed that they did not believe [in him]. Mark 6:6b-13 Jesus [and his disciples] went from town to town [in that region] teaching [the people].
Ẹnu si yà á nítorí àìgbàgbọ́ wọn. Lẹ́yìn náà, Jesu lọ sí àárín àwọn ìletò kéékèèké, ó sì ń kọ́ wọn.
7 [One day] he summoned the twelve [disciples], and then he [told them that] he was going to send them out two-by-two [to teach people in various towns]. He gave them power [to expel] evil spirits [from people].
Ó sì pe àwọn méjìlá náà sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí rán wọn lọ ní méjì méjì, Ó sì fi àṣẹ fún wọn lórí ẹ̀mí àìmọ́.
8 He also instructed them to wear sandals and to take along a walking stick when they were traveling. He told them not to take food, nor a bag [in which travelers carry supplies], nor any money for their journey. He also did not allow them to take extra clothing. [He wanted the people who heard their message to give them what they needed].
O sọ fún wọn pé, wọn kò gbọdọ̀ mú ohunkóhun lọ́wọ́, àfi ọ̀pá ìtìlẹ̀ wọn. Wọn kò gbọdọ̀ mú oúnjẹ, àpò ìgbànú, tàbí owó lọ́wọ́.
Wọn kò tilẹ̀ gbọdọ̀ mú ìpààrọ̀ bàtà tàbí aṣọ lọ́wọ́.
10 He also instructed them, “After you enter a town, [if someone invites you to stay in his house], go into his house. Eat and sleep in that same home until you leave that town.
Jesu wí pé, “Ẹ dúró sí ilé kan ní ìletò kan. Ẹ má ṣe sípò padà láti ilé dé ilé, nígbà tí ẹ bá wà ní ìlú náà.
11 Wherever the people do not welcome you and wherever the people do not listen to you, shake off the dust from your feet as you leave [that place]. By doing that, you will warn them [that God will punish them for rejecting your message].”
Ẹnikẹ́ni tí kò bá sì gbà yín, tí kò sì gbọ́rọ̀ yín, nígbà tí ẹ̀yin bá jáde kúrò níbẹ̀, ẹ gbọn eruku ẹsẹ̀ yín síbẹ̀ fún ẹ̀rí fún wọn.”
12 [So] after the disciples went out [to various towns], they were preaching that people should stop their sinful behavior.
Wọ́n jáde lọ láti wàásù ìrònúpìwàdà fún àwọn ènìyàn.
13 They were also expelling many evil spirits [from people], and they were anointing many sick people with [olive] oil and healing them.
Wọ́n lé ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àwọn ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ jáde. Wọ́n sì ń fi òróró kun orí àwọn tí ara wọn kò dá, wọ́n sì mú wọn láradá.
14 [King] Herod [Antipas] heard about [what] Jesus [was doing], because many people were talking [about it. Some] people were saying [about Jesus], “[He must be] John the Baptizer! He has come back to life! That is why he [has God’s] power to perform these miracles!”
Láìpẹ́, ọba Herodu gbọ́ nípa Jesu, nítorí níbi gbogbo ni a ti ń sọ̀rọ̀ iṣẹ́ ìyanu rẹ̀. Ọba náà rò pé, “Johanu Onítẹ̀bọmi jíǹde kúrò nínú òkú, nítorí náà ni iṣẹ́ ìyanu ṣe ń ṣe láti ọwọ́ rẹ.”
15 Others were saying [about Jesus], “He is [the former prophet] Elijah, [whom God promised to send back again].” Others were saying [about Jesus], “[No], he is a [different] prophet, like one of the [other] prophets [who lived long ago].”
Àwọn mìíràn wí pé, “Elijah ní.” Àwọn mìíràn wí pé, “Wòlíì bí ọ̀kan lára àwọn àtijọ́ tó ti kú ló tún padà sáyé.”
16 Having heard [what the people were saying, King] Herod [Antipas] himself repeatedly said, “The man [performing those miracles] must be John! I [commanded my soldiers to] cut off his head, but he has come back to life again [to get revenge for my killing him]!”
Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí Herodu gbọ́ èyí, ó wí pé “Johanu tí mo tí bẹ́ lórí ni ó ti jíǹde kúrò nínú òkú.”
17 The reason [King Herod concluded that John wanted revenge is as follows: Some time before this], Herod married Herodias, while she was [still] the wife of his [younger] brother, Philip.
Herodu fúnra rẹ̀ sá ti ránṣẹ́ mú Johanu, tìkára rẹ̀ sínú túbú nítorí Herodia aya Filipi arákùnrin rẹ̀ nítorí tí ó fi ṣe aya.
18 John kept telling Herod, “[God’s] law does not permit you to marry the wife of your brother [while he is still alive].” Then, because Herodias [urged him to put John in prison], Herod himself sent [soldiers to John]. They seized John and put him in prison.
Johanu sì ti wí fún Herodu pé, “Kò tọ́ sí ọ láti fi ìyàwó arákùnrin rẹ ṣe aya.”
19 But because Herodias wanted to get [further] revenge on John, she wanted [someone] to execute him. But she could not do that because [while John was in prison], Herod kept John safe [from her].
Nítorí náà ni Herodia ṣe ní sínú, òun sì fẹ́ pa á, ṣùgbọ́n kò le ṣe é.
20 Herod did this because he respected/feared John, because he knew that he was a righteous and holy man. The king did not know what he should do, but he liked to listen to him.
Nítorí Herodu bẹ̀rù Johanu, ó sì mọ̀ ọ́n ni olóòtítọ́ ènìyàn àti ẹni mímọ́, ó sì ń tọ́jú rẹ̀. Nígbà tí Herodu ba gbọ́rọ̀ Johanu, ó máa ń dààmú síbẹ̀, ó sì fi ayọ̀ gbọ́rọ̀ rẹ̀.
21 But [Herodias was able to have someone execute John when they honored/celebrated] the day when Herod was born. On that day, he invited the [most important] government officials, the [most important] army leaders, and the most important men in Galilee [district] in order that they might eat [and celebrate with him].
Níkẹyìn Herodia rí ààyè. Àkókò yìí ni ọjọ́ ìbí Herodu, òun sì pèsè àsè ní ààfin ọba fún àwọn olùrànlọ́wọ́ rẹ̀: àwọn balógun àti àwọn ènìyàn pàtàkì ní Galili.
22 [While they were eating], Herodias’ daughter came into the room and danced, and that pleased [King] Herod and his guests. So the king said to her, “Ask me for whatever you desire and I will give it to you!”
Nígbà náà, ni ọmọbìnrin Herodia wọlé láti jó. Inú Herodu àti àwọn àlejò rẹ̀ dùn tó bẹ́ẹ̀. Ọba sọ fún ọmọbìnrin náà pé, “Béèrè ohunkóhun tí ìwọ bá fẹ́ lọ́wọ́ mi, èmi ó sì fi fún ọ.”
23 He said to her, “Whatever you ask, I will give it to you! I will give you up to half of what I own and rule, if you ask for it. May God punish me [if I do not do what I have promised]!”
Ó sì búra fún un wí pé, “Ohunkóhun tí ìwọ bá fẹ́, ìbá à ṣe ìdajì ìjọba mi ni, èmi yóò fi fún ọ.”
24 The girl immediately left the room and went to her mother. She [told her what the king had said, and] asked her, “What shall I ask for?” Her mother replied, “[Ask the king to give you] the head of John the Baptizer!”
Ó jáde lọ sọ fún ìyá rẹ̀ pé, “Kí ní kí ń béèrè?” Ó dáhùn pé, “Orí Johanu Onítẹ̀bọmi.”
25 The girl quickly entered the room again. She went to the king and she requested, “I want you to command someone to [cut off] the head of John the Baptizer [and] give it to me at once on a platter, [so that my mother can know he is dead]!”
Ọmọbìnrin yìí sáré padà wá sọ́dọ̀ Herodu ọba. Ó sì wí fún un pé, “Mo ń fẹ́ orí Johanu Onítẹ̀bọmi nísinsin yìí nínú àwopọ̀kọ́.”
26 The king became very distressed [when he heard what she asked for], because he knew John was a very righteous man (OR, because he now knew that he should not have made that promise to her). But he could not refuse [what she requested because] he had promised [that he would give her anything she asked for], and because his guests [had heard him promise that].
Inú ọba sì bàjẹ́ gidigidi, ṣùgbọ́n nítorí àwọn ìbúra rẹ, àti nítorí àwọn tí ó bá a jókòó pọ̀, kò sì fẹ́ kọ̀ fún un.
27 So the king at once ordered the man who executes prisoners to go and [cut off] John’s head and bring it [to the girl]. That man went to the prison and cut off John’s head.
Nítorí èyí, ọba rán ẹ̀ṣọ́ kan, ó fi àṣẹ fún un pé, kí ó gbé orí Johanu wá. Ọkùnrin náà sì lọ, ó bẹ́ Johanu lórí nínú túbú.
28 He [put it on] a platter, brought it back, and gave it to the girl. The girl took it to her mother.
Ó sì gbé orí Johanu wa nínú àwopọ̀kọ́. Ó sì gbé e fún ọmọbìnrin náà. Òun sì gbé e tọ ìyá rẹ̀ lọ.
29 After John’s disciples heard [what happened], they went [to the prison] and took John’s body and then they buried [it in a burial cave].
Nígbà tí àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn Johanu gbọ́, wọ́n wá gbé òkú rẹ̀, wọ́n sì lọ tẹ́ ẹ sínú ibojì.
30 The [twelve] apostles returned to Jesus [from the places to which they had gone]. They reported to him what they had done and what they had taught [to people].
Àwọn aposteli kó ara wọn jọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ Jesu, wọ́n sí ròyìn ohun gbogbo tí wọ́n ti ṣe àti ohun gbogbo tí wọ́n ti kọ́ni.
31 He said to them, “Come [with me] to a place where no people are living, in order that we can be alone and rest a little while!” [He said this] because many people were continually coming to them and going [away again], with the result that [Jesus and] his disciples did not have time to eat [or do anything else].
Nígbà tí Jesu rí i pé ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn ń lọ tí wọ́n sì ń bọ̀ tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí kò sí ààyè fún wọn láti jẹun, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ jẹ́ kí a kúrò láàrín ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn wọ̀nyí fún ìgbà díẹ̀, kí a sì sinmi.”
32 So they went away by themselves in a boat to a place where no people were living.
Nítorí náà, wọ́n wọ ọkọ̀ ojú omi kúrò níbẹ̀ lọ sí ibi tí ó parọ́rọ́.
33 [But many] people saw them leaving. They also recognized [that they were Jesus and the disciples, and they saw where they were going]. So they ran [ahead on land] from all the [nearby] towns to the place [where Jesus and his disciples were going]. They [actually] arrived there before [Jesus and the disciples].
Ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn ni o rí wọn nígbà tí wọ́n ń lọ. Àwọn wọ̀nyí sì tún wá láti ìlú ńlá gbogbo wọn sáré gba etí Òkun, wọ́n ṣáájú wọn gúnlẹ̀ ní èbúté.
34 As Jesus [and his disciples] got out of the boat, Jesus saw this large crowd. He felt sorry for them because they were [confused], like sheep that do not have a shepherd. So he taught them many things.
Bí Jesu ti ń sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti inú ọkọ̀ náà, ó bá ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn bí i tí àtẹ̀yìnwá, tí wọ́n ti ń dúró dè e. Ó káàánú fún wọn, nítorí wọ́n dàbí àgùntàn tí kò ní olùtọ́jú. Ó sì kọ́ wọn ni ọ̀pọ̀ nǹkan tí ó yẹ kí wọ́n mọ̀.
35 Late [in the afternoon], the disciples came to him and said, “This is a place where no people live and it is very late.
Nígbà tí ọjọ́ sì ti bù lọ tán, àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ tọ̀ ọ́ wá, wọ́n wí fún un pé, ibi aṣálẹ̀ ni ìbí yìí, ọjọ́ sì bù lọ tán.
36 [So] send the people away in order that they may go to the surrounding farms and villages in order that they can buy for themselves something to eat!”
“Rán àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí láti lọ sí àwọn abúlé àti ìlú láti ra oúnjẹ fún ara wọn.”
37 But he replied, “[No], you [yourselves] give them something to eat!” They replied, “(We could not buy enough bread to feed [this crowd], even if we had as much money as a man earns by working 200 days!/How could we buy enough bread to feed [this mob], even if we had as much money as a man earns by working 200 days?)” [RHQ]
Ṣùgbọ́n Jesu sọ fún àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ fún wọn ní oúnjẹ.” Àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn wí fún pé, “Èyí yóò ná wa tó owó iṣẹ́ ọ̀yà oṣù mẹ́jọ, ṣe kí a lọ fi èyí ra àkàrà fún àwọn ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn yìí láti jẹ.”
38 But he replied to them, “How many loaves of bread do you have? Go and find out!” They [went and] found out and then they told him, “We have [only] five flat loaves and two [cooked] fish!”
Jesu tún béèrè pé, “Ìṣù àkàrà mélòó ni ẹ̀yin ni lọ́wọ́? Ẹ lọ wò ó.” Wọ́n padà wá jíṣẹ́ pé, “Ìṣù àkàrà márùn-ún àti ẹja méjì.”
39 He instructed [the disciples to tell] all the people to sit down on the green grass.
Nígbà náà ni Jesu sọ fún ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn náà kí a mú wọn jókòó lẹ́gbẹ̀ẹ̀gbẹ́ lórí koríko.
40 So the people sat in groups. There were 50 people in some groups and 100 people in other groups.
Lẹ́sẹ̀kan náà, wọ́n bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í jókòó, ní àádọ́ta tàbí ọgọọgọ́rùn-ún.
41 Jesus took the five flat loaves and the two fish. He looked up towards heaven and thanked [God] for them. Then he broke the loaves and fish into pieces and kept giving them to the disciples in order that they would distribute them to the people.
Nígbà tí ó sì mú ìṣù àkàrà márùn-ún àti ẹja méjì náà, ó gbé ojú rẹ̀ sókè ọ̀run. Ó dúpẹ́ fún oúnjẹ náà, ó bù wọ́n sí wẹ́wẹ́, ó fún àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ láti gbé e kalẹ̀ síwájú àwọn ènìyàn náà àti àwọn ẹja méjì náà ni ó pín fún gbogbo wọn.
42 Everyone ate [this food] until they all had enough to eat!
Gbogbo wọn sì jẹ àjẹyó.
43 The disciples then collected twelve baskets full of pieces [of bread] and of the fish [that were left over].
Àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn sì kó agbọ̀n méjìlá tí ó kún fún àjẹkù àkàrà àti ti ẹja pẹ̀lú.
44 There were approximately 5,000 men who ate the bread [and fish. They did not even count the women and children].
Àwọn tí ó sì jẹ́ àkàrà náà tó ìwọ̀n ẹgbẹ̀rún márùn-ún ọkùnrin.
45 Right away Jesus told his disciples to get into the boat and then go ahead of him to Bethsaida [town, which was] further around [Lake Galilee. He stayed and] dismissed the many people who were there.
Lẹ́sẹ̀kẹsẹ̀ lẹ́yìn èyí, Jesu pàṣẹ fún àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ láti padà sínú ọkọ̀ kí wọn sì ṣáájú rékọjá sí Betisaida. Níbẹ̀ ni òun yóò ti wà pẹ̀lú wọn láìpẹ́. Nítorí òun fúnra a rẹ̀ yóò dúró sẹ́yìn láti rí i pé àwọn ènìyàn túká lọ ilé wọn.
46 After he said goodbye to the people, he went up into the hills in order to pray.
Lẹ́yìn náà, ó lọ sórí òkè láti lọ gbàdúrà.
47 When it was evening, the [disciples’] boat was in the middle of the lake and Jesus was by himself on the land.
Nígbà tí ó di alẹ́, ọkọ̀ wà láàrín Òkun, òun nìkan sì wà lórí ilẹ̀.
48 He saw that the wind was [blowing] against them as they rowed. As a result, they were having great difficulty. He approached them early in the morning, when it was still dark, by walking on the water. He intended to walk by them.
Ó rí i wí pé àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn wà nínú wàhálà púpọ̀ ní wíwa ọkọ̀ náà nítorí ti ìjì líle ṣe ọwọ́ òdì sí wọn, nígbà tí ó sì dì ìwọ̀n ìṣọ́ kẹrin òru, ó tọ̀ wọ́n wá, ó ń rìn lórí omi Òkun, òun sì fẹ́ ré wọn kọjá,
49 They saw him walking on the water, but they thought that he was a ghost. They screamed
ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí wọ́n rí i tí ó ń rìn, wọ́n rò pé iwin ni. Wọ́n sì kígbe sókè lóhùn rara,
50 because they all were terrified when they saw him. But he talked to them. He said to them, “Be calm! Do not be afraid, [because] it is I!”
nítorí gbogbo wọn ni ó rí i, tí ẹ̀rù sì bà wọ́n. Ṣùgbọ́n òun sọ̀rọ̀ sí wọn lẹ́sẹ̀kẹsẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ mú ọkàn le! Èmi ni. Ẹ má bẹ̀rù.”
51 He got into the boat [and sat down] with them and the wind [immediately] blowing. They were completely amazed [about what he had done].
Nígbà náà ni ó gòkè sínú ọkọ̀ pẹ̀lú wọn, ìjì líle náà sì dáwọ́ dúró. Ẹ̀rù sì bà wọ́n rékọjá gidigidi, ẹnu sì yà wọ́n.
52 [Although they had seen Jesus multiply] the [bread and the fish], they did not understand [from that how powerful he was, as they should have]. They did not think clearly about it.
Wọn kò sá tó ni òye iṣẹ́ ìyanu ti ìṣù àkàrà, nítorí ti ọkàn wọn yigbì.
53 After they went further around [Lake Galilee in a boat, they came to the shore at Gennesaret town]. Then they tied up the boat there.
Lẹ́yìn tí wọ́n la Òkun náà kọjá, wọ́n gúnlẹ̀ sí Genesareti. Wọ́n sì so ọkọ̀ sí èbúté.
54 As soon as they got out of the boat, [the people there] recognized Jesus.
Wọ́n jáde kúrò nínú ọkọ̀. Àwọn ènìyàn tó wà níbẹ̀ rí Jesu, wọ́n sì dá a mọ̀ ọ́n.
55 So they ran throughout the whole district [in order to tell others that Jesus was there]. Then the people [placed] those who were sick on stretchers and carried them to any place where they heard [people say] that Jesus was.
Wéré, wọ́n ròyìn dídé rẹ̀, gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn sáré gbé gbogbo àwọn aláìsàn lórí àkéte wọn wá pàdé rẹ̀.
56 In whatever village, town or other place where he entered, they would bring to the marketplaces those who were sick. Then the [sick people] would beg Jesus to let them touch [him or] even the edge of his clothes [in order that Jesus might heal them]. All those who touched [him or his robe] were healed.
Ní ibi gbogbo tí ó sì dé, yálà ní abúlé, ìlú ńlá tàbí àrọ́ko, ń ṣe ni wọ́n ń kó àwọn aláìsàn pàdé rẹ̀ ní àárín ọjà. Wọ́n sì ń bẹ̀ ẹ́ kí ó jẹ́ kí wọn fi ọwọ́ kan etí aṣọ rẹ̀, gbogbo àwọn tí wọ́n sì fi ọwọ́ kàn án ni a mú láradá.
