Mark 8
1 During those days, a large crowd of people gathered again. [After they had been there a couple days], they had no food to eat. So Jesus summoned the disciples [to come closer] and then he said to them,
Lishaka limu, lipinga limonga lya wantu waliwona kayi, waweriti wahera shiboga. Su Yesu kawashema wafundwa wakuwi, kawagambira,
2 “This is the third day that these people have been with me, and they have nothing [left] to eat, so now I feel very sorry for them.
“Nuwawonera lusungu wantu awa toziya wapamuhera na neni kwa mashaka matatu na vinu wahera shiboga.
3 Furthermore, if I send them home [while they are still] hungry, [some of] them will faint on the way home, because some of them have come from far away.”
Handa panawalekisiya wagendi ukaya kwawu na njala hawalembuki mnjira, toziya wamonga walawa kutali.”
4 [Knowing that he was suggesting that they give the people something to eat, one of] his disciples replied, “(We cannot possibly find food to satisfy this crowd, here in this place where no people live!/How can we find food to satisfy this crowd, here in this place where no people live?)” [RHQ]
Wafundwa wakuwi wamkosiya, “Peni panu pantundu hagapatikani koshi mabumunda ga kuwawikutiziya wantu woseri awa?”
5 Jesus asked them, “How many loaves of bread do you have?” They replied, “[We have] seven [flat loaves].”
Yesu kawakosiya, “Mwaga mabumunda maninga?” Nawomberi wamwankula, “Twana mabumunda saba.”
6 Jesus commanded the crowd, “Sit down on the ground!” [After they sat down], he took the seven loaves, he thanked [God for them], he broke them [into pieces] and started giving them to his disciples in order that they might distribute them [to the people].
Yesu kawagambira wantu walivagi pasi. Katola mabumunda saba, kamgambira Mlungu mayagashii. Shakapanu kagamega mabumunda galiya, kawayupi wafundwa wakuwi wawayupi wantu, nawomberi wawagawira.
7 [They found that] they [also] had a few small [dried] fish. So after he thanked God for these, he told the disciples, “Distribute these also.” [After they distributed the bread and fish to the crowd],
Kayi waweriti na wasomba vidika vididini. Yesu kavitekelera, kawahimiziya wawapanani wantu ntambu iraa.
8 the people ate this food and they had plenty [to] satisfy [them]. [The disciples] collected the pieces of food that were left over. [They filled] seven large baskets full of those pieces.
Wantu waliya wikuta, wafundwa wakuwi wasola visigariti wamemeziya majamanda saba.
9 [They estimated that] there were about 4,000 people [who ate on that day].
Wantu waliyiti waweriti elufu msheshi. Su Yesu kawagambira ne mbuka.
10 Then Jesus dismissed the crowd. Immediately after that, he got into the boat along with his disciples, and they went [around Lake Galilee] to Dalmanutha district.
Pakamaliliti kuwagambira ne mbuka kakwena mumashuwa pamuhera na wafundwa wakuwi kagenda lushi lwa Dalumanita.
11 [In those days some] Pharisees came to Jesus. They asked him [to perform] a miracle [that would show that] God [had sent him]. They wanted to [find a way by which they could] convince the people to reject him. [So] they started to argue with him.
Mafalisayu wamu wiziti kwa Yesu, wanja kulishowerana nayomberi. Wafiriti kumjera kawatenderi lirangaliru lya liuzauza kulawa kumpindi.
12 Jesus sighed quietly to himself, and then he said, “I am disgusted that [RHQ], [even though] you people have seen how I [have healed people], you keep asking me to perform miracles! Note this: Such a miracle will certainly not be shown {I will certainly not show such a miracle} [just] for you people!”
Yesu kawawonera lusungu kumoyu, kalonga, “Iwera hashi shiyiwuku ashi shifira liuzauza? Nakaka nukugambirani, shiyiwuku ashi hapeni shipati lilangaliru lyoseri.”
13 Then he left them. He got into the boat again, along [with his disciples], and they went further around [Lake Galilee].
Su kawaleka, kakwena kayi mumashuwa, kagenda kumwambu kulitanda.
14 The disciples had forgotten to bring along [enough] food. Specifically, they had only one flat loaf of bread with them in the boat.
Wantumintumi waliyaluwiti kutola mabumunda, waweriti na libumunda limu hera mumashuwa.
15 [As they were going], Jesus warned them against [the attitudes the Pharisees and Herod Antipas had, attitudes that were having a bad effect on other people. He did this by telling them a parable]. He said, “Be careful! Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod!”
Yesu kawaberiziya, “Mukali weri na vidodera vya Mafalisayu na vya Herodi.”
16 [The disciples misunderstood him]. So they said to one another, “[He must have said that] because we have no bread.”
Wantumintumi wanja kulitakuziyana weni kwa weni, “Kankutakula hangu toziya twahera mabumunda.”
17 Jesus knew [what they were discussing among themselves]. So he said to them, “([I am disappointed that you are] discussing about your not having enough bread!/Why are you discussing about your not having enough bread?) [RHQ] (You should understand by now [that I can provide miraculously for you if you need food!/Why do you not yet perceive or understand that I can provide miraculously for you if you need food]?) [RHQ] (You are not thinking!/Why are you not thinking?) [RHQ]
Yesu kavimaniti gawatakuliti, kawakosiiti, “Mbona mwankulitakuziya kuusu kuwera ndiri na mabumunda? Mwenivimani wala kupikinira? Yakali ikamala myoyu yenu?
18 (I am also disappointed that, although you have eyes, you do not [understand what you] see!/Why is it that, although you have eyes, you do not [understand what you] see?) [RHQ] You have ears, but you do not understand [what I say] [RHQ]!” [Then he asked], “Do you not remember [what happened]
Mwana masu, hashi mwona ndiri? Mwanaga makutu, hashi mpikinira ndiri? Mlihola ndiri?
19 when I broke [only] five loaves [and fed] the 5.000 people [RHQ]? [Not only was everyone satisfied, but there was food left over] How many baskets full of pieces of bread [that were left over] did you collect?” They replied, “We collected twelve baskets full.”
Pamegiti mabumunda mhanu su na kuwayupa wantu elufu mhanu, mjojiniriti majamanda maninga ga yagasigariti?” Wamwankula, “Gaweriti majamanda lilongu na mawili.”
20 Then he asked, “When I broke the seven loaves in order to [feed] the 4,000 people, [again when everyone had plenty to eat], how many large baskets [of pieces of bread that were left over] did you collect?” They replied, “[We collected] seven [large baskets full].”
“Pakagamegiti mabumunda saba na kawayupa wantu elufu msheshi, mjojiniriti majamanda maninga yagasigariti?” Wamwankula, “Gaweriti majamanda saba.”
21 Then he kept saying to them, “([I am disappointed that] you do not understand yet [that you should never worry that you do not have enough food]!/Why do you not understand yet [that you should never worry that you do not have enough food]?)” [RHQ]
Su Yesu kawagambira, “Na vinu muvimana ndiri?”
22 They arrived [in the boat] at Bethsaida [town]. People brought to Jesus a blind man and earnestly requested that Jesus touch him [in order to heal him].
Yesu kasokiti Betisayida pamuhera na wantumintumi wakuwi. Aku wantu wamjega kanalwisi yumu, wamluwa Yesu kamkoli.
23 Jesus took the hand of the blind man, led him outside the town, he put his saliva on the man’s eyes, he put his hands on the man, and then he asked him, “Do you see anything?”
Yesu kamkola liwoku kanalwisi uliya, kamjega kunja kushijiji. Kamtemera mata mmasu kamtulila mawoku, kamkosiya, “Guweza kuwona shintu shoseri?”
24 The man looked up and then he said, “[Yes], I see people! They are walking around, but I cannot see them [clearly]. They look like trees!”
Kanalwisi uliya kalola, katakula, “Nawawona wantu wawonekana gambira mitera yankugendagenda.”
25 Then Jesus again touched the eyes of the blind man. The man looked intently and at that moment he was completely healed! He could see everything clearly.
Su Yesu kamtulila kayi mawoku mmasu, yomberi katumula masu. Uwezu wakuwi wa kulola umwuyira, kalola kila shintu weri.
26 Jesus said to him, “Do not go into the town! [First go straight home and tell the people there about what I did]!” Then he sent the man to his home.
Yesu kamgambira gugendi zaku ukaya na kumuhimiziya, naguwuya kushijiji shilii.
27 Jesus and the disciples [left Bethsaida town and went to the villages near Caesarea Philippi town]. On the way he questioned them, “Who do people say that I [really] am?”
Shakapanu Yesu na wafundwa wakuwi wagenditi muvijiji vya Kaisariya Filipi. Pawaweriti munjira, Yesu kawakosiiti, “Wantu watakula neni na gaa?”
28 They replied, “[Some people say] that you are John the Baptizer, [who has come back to life again]. Others say [that you are the prophet] Elijah [who has returned from heaven as God promised]. And others say that you are one of the [other former] prophets [who has come back to life again].”
Wamwankula, “Wamonga watakula gwenga gwa Yohani mbatiza na wamonga Eliya na wamonga watakula gwenga guwera yumu gwa wambuyi wa Mlungu.”
29 He asked them, “What about you? Who do you say that I am?” Peter replied to him, “[We believe that] you are the Messiah!”
Nayomberi kawakosiya, “Hashi, mwenga mlonga neni nagaa?” Peteru kamwankula, “Gwenga gwa Kristu!”
30 Then Jesus warned them strongly that they should not tell anyone [yet that he was the Messiah].
Shakapanu Yesu kawaberiziya pakawagambira, “Namumgambira muntu yoseri visoweru avi.” Litawu Kristu kwa Shigiriki mana yakuwi ndo Mlungu kamsyagula kuwera Mtuwa. Kwa Shiebulaniya litawu ali walishema Masiya.
31 Then Jesus began to teach them, “[Even though] I am the one who came from heaven, it is necessary that I suffer very much. It is also necessary that I be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the men who teach the [Jewish] laws {that the elders, the chief priests, and the men who teach the [Jewish] laws reject me}, and that I be killed {they kill me}. But on the third day [after I am killed I] will become alive again.”
Shakapanu Yesu kanjiti kuwafundiza wantumintumi wakuwi. Kawagambira, “Mwana gwa muntu mpaka katabiki nentu na kulemwa na wazewi na watambika wakulu wa numba ya Mlungu na wafunda wa malagaliru. Hawamlagi, kumbiti pamashaka matatu pagapita hakazyuki.”
32 He said this to them clearly. But Peter took Jesus aside and then, [because he assumed that the Messiah would never die], he started to rebuke Jesus [for talking about dying].
Yesu kawagambiriti vitwatira avi pota kufifa. Su, Peteru kamtola kumbwega, kanja kumkalipira.
33 Jesus turned around and looked at his disciples. Then he rebuked Peter, saying, “Stop thinking like that! Satan [is causing you to talk like that! Instead] of wanting what God wants [me to do, you are wanting] me to do [only] what [most] people [would want me to do].”
Kumbiti Yesu kagalambuka, kawalola wafundwa wakuwi, kamkalipira Peteru pakalonga, “Guwuki kulongolu kwaneni, Shetani! Maholu gaku galawa ndiri kwa Mlungu ira ga muntu!”
34 Then he summoned the crowd along with his disciples [so that they might listen to him]. He told them, “If any one [of you] wants to be my disciple, you must not do [only] what you yourself want to do. Specifically, you must [be willing to allow people to hurt you and to disgrace you. That is what they do to criminals] who are forced to carry crosses [MET] [to the places where they will be crucified]. That is what anyone who wants to be my disciple must do.
Su kalishema lipinga lya wantu na wafundwa wakuwi, kawagambira, “Handa muntu yoseri pakafira kunfata, kalilemi mweni na kalutoli lupingika lwakuwi kanfati. Luka 14.27.
35 [You must do that], because those who try to save their lives [by denying that they belong to me when people want to kill them for believing in me] will not live [eternally], but those who are killed because of being my [disciples] and [because of telling others my] good message will live [forever with me].
Handa muntu yakafira kugalopoziya makaliru gakuwi mweni hakaagamiziyi, kumbiti muntu yakagamiziya ukomu wakuwi kwajili ya neni na kwajili ya Shisoweru Shiwagira hakalopoziyi.
36 People might get everything [they want] in this world, but (they are really gaining nothing if they do not get eternal life [because they do not become my disciples!]/what will they gain if they do not get eternal life [because they do not become my disciples]?) [RHQ]
Hashi, kwana mota gaa muntu kuyipata isi yoseri shakapanu hakaagamiziyi makaliru gakuwi? Hakapati ndiri shintu.
37 ([Think carefully about the fact that] there is absolutely nothing that people can give [to God] that would enable them to gain eternal life!/Is there anything that a person can give [to God] in order to gain eternal life?) [RHQ]
Ama muntu katendi hashi kupata kayi makaliru gakuwi?
38 And think about this: Those who refuse [to say that they belong to] me and who reject what I say in these days when many people have turned away [from God] and are very sinful, I, the one who came from heaven, will also refuse [to say that they belong to me] when I come back with the holy angels and have the glorious brightness that my Father has!”
Muntu yoseri mushiyiwuku ashi shidoda na shashimtira ndiri Mlungu, yakamonera soni neni na mafundu gangu, neni Mwana gwa muntu hanumwoneri soni muntu uliya paniza muwukwisa wa Tati gwangu pamuhera na wantumintumi wa kumpindi wananagala wa Mlungu.”
