Mark 4
1 Again he began to teach beside the sea, and a large crowd gathered around him. He stepped into a boat that was on the sea, and he sat down in it. The whole crowd was on the shore beside the sea.
Hangi ai wandilye kumanyisa mu mpelompelo a luzi. Ni iumbi ikulu likilundiila likamupilimikiilya, akingila mukati i ilinga mu luzi, nu kikie. Iumbi lihi nai likoli mu mpelo a luzi mu nshemba.
2 He taught them many things in parables, and in his teaching, this is what he said to them.
Hangi aka amanyisa makani idu ku mpyani, hangi akaligitya kitalao ku umanyisa nuakwe.
3 “Listen, the farmer went out to sow his seed.
Tegeelyi, mutemeli ai ulongoe kutemela.
4 As he sowed, some seed fell on the road, and the birds came and devoured it.
Nai wakatula ukutemela, ing'wi nia mbeu ai igwie mu nzila, ni nyunyi ikapembya ikailya.
5 Other seed fell on the rocky ground, where it did not have much soil. Immediately it sprang up, because it did not have deep soil.
Mbeu i nzuya ai igwie mu matalagwe, naiza kutili ni mahalu idu. Itungo ikanyala, ku nsoko ai ngila anga mahalu nakondaniie.
6 But when the sun rose, the plants were scorched, and because they had no root, they dried up.
Kuiti i lyoa nai litolokile, ai inyaile, ku nsoko ai ngila anga mili, ikuma.
7 Other seed fell among the thorn plants. The thorn plants grew up and choked it, and it did not produce a crop.
Mbeu inzuya ai igwie pakati a mija. iMija ikakula nu kuitunyiilya, hangi shanga ikapa inkali yihi.
8 Other seed fell into good soil and it produced a crop growing up and increasing thirty, sixty, and even a hundred times.”
Mbeu i nzuya ai igwie mu mahalu ni maza hangi ai ipee i nkali itungo nai yukukula nu kungeeleka, inzuya ai ipee nkua makumi ataatu ikilo, ni nzuya makumi mutandaatu, ni nzuya igana.”
9 Then he said, “Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear!”
Hangi wakaligitya, “Wihi nukete i akutwi ni akija, nu ije!”
10 When Jesus was alone, those who were close to him and with the twelve asked him about the parables.
uYesu nai wakatula wing'wene, awo nai akoli pakupi nu ng'wenso nawo ni ikumi na abiili ai amukoiye kutula i mpyani.
11 He said to them, “To you is given the mystery of the kingdom of God. But to those outside everything is in parables,
Akaligitya kitalao, “Kitalanyu minkiigwe kinkunku nika utemi nuang'wa Itunda. Kuiti ku niakoli kunzi kila i kintu ingi mpyani,
12 so that when they look, yes they look, but do not see, and so that when they hear, yes they hear, but do not understand, or else they would turn and God would forgive them.”
iti anga agoze, uu igoza, kuiti shanga ihenga, hangi ku lulo niakija uu ijaa, kuiti shanga ilinga, anga ize shanga uu aza azee mupiluka Itunda ai uzee alekela.”
13 Then he said to them, “Do you not understand this parable? How then will you understand all the other parables?
Hangi akaligiya kitalao, “Itii shanga mulingile i mpyani iyi? Mukuhuma uli kulinga i mpyani ni ingiiza?
14 The farmer who sows his seed is the one who sows the word.
Mutemeli ai utemee lukani.
15 These are the ones that fall beside the road, where the word was sown, but when they hear it, Satan immediately comes and takes away the word that was sown in them.
Ing'wi ingi awo nai agwie mu mpelo a anzila, kianza u lukani naza lutemewe. Hangi nai igulye, itungo u Mulugu akapembya nu kuluhola u lukani naiza lutemewe mukati ao.
16 These are the ones that are sown on rocky ground, who, when they hear the word, immediately receive it with joy.
Hani ang'wi ao ingi awo nai atemewe migulya amatalagwe, naza, nai igulye u lukani, ku ukau akulusingiilya ku ulowa.
17 They have no root in themselves, but endure for a short time. Then tribulation or persecution comes because of the word, and immediately they stumble.
Hnagi agila imili ihi mukati ao, kuiti igimya ku itungo ikupi. Halafu lwago nu wagigwa ni ipembilye ku nsoko a lukani, itungo ikumpyaa.
18 The others are the ones that were sown among the thorns. They hear the word,
Hangi ang'wi ingi awo nai atemewe mu mija. Akulija u lukani.
19 but the cares of the world, the deceitfulness of riches, and the desires of other things enter in and choke the word, and it does not produce a crop. (aiōn g165)
Kuiti unyong'wa nu ihi. ukongelwa nua nsao, ni nsula a makani mangiiza, wi ingiila nu kulutunyiilya u lukani, nu kuleng'wa kupaa inkali. (aiōn g165)
20 Then those that were sown in the good soil are the ones who hear the word and receive it, and they produce crops—thirty, sixty, or a hundred times what was sown.”
Uugwa akoli awo naza atemewe mu mahalu ni maza. Akulija u lukani nu kulusingiilya nu kupa i nkali; ang'wi makumi ataatu, hangi ang'wi makumi mutandatu, hangi ang'wi igana ling'wi.”
21 Jesus said to them, “Do you bring a lamp inside the house to put it under a basket, or under the bed? You bring it in and you put it on a lampstand.
uYesu aka atambuila, “Itii iiza wileta u lumuli mukati ito nu kuluika pihi a nkapu, ang'wi pihi a ulili? Wiluletaa mukati nu kuluika migulya a ishupaka.
22 For nothing is hidden that will not be known, and nothing is secret that will not come out into the open.
Ku nsoko kutili kihi nikipihile naiza shanga kiku kumuka, hangi kutili i kinkunku naiza shanga kikuikwa kihenga.
23 If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear!”
Anga ize ukoli nukete i akutwi a kija, nu ije!”
24 He said to them, “Pay attention to what you hear, for the measure you use will be measured to you, and more will be added to you.
Aka atambuila, “Tuli miakendegeeli ku iko ni mukukija, ku nsoko u ugemeelya ni mukugemeelya, kiko ni mukagemeeligwa, hangi kikongeligwa kitalanyu.
25 Because whoever has, to him will be given more, and whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken.”
Ku nsoko nuanso nukete, ukinkiiligwa ikilo, hangi uyo nimugila, kupuma kitalakwe ikuholwa ga nizo nuikete.”
26 He also said, “The kingdom of God is like a man who sows his seed on the ground.
Hangi akaligitya, “Utemi nuang'wa Itunda wimpyanigwe nu muntu nai utemee i mbeu mu mahalu.
27 He sleeps at night and gets up by day, and the seed sprouts and grows, though he does not know how.
Nai wakalala u utiku nu kuuka i kidaudau, ni mbeu ikaheluka nu kukula, Ga ni uu shanga ulingile nai ipumie.
28 The earth bears grain by itself: First the blade, then the ear, then the mature grain in the ear.
Ihi ipumyaa i mbeu nkola; hanza matutu, alafu ulua, alafu mbeu niakagupaa.
29 When the crop is ripe, he immediately sends in the sickle because the harvest has come.”
Hangi itungo imbeu ni ikatula ailyaa itungo witwalaa uzolo, ku nsoko i maogola apikiila.”
30 Again he said, “To what can we compare the kingdom of God, or what parable can we use to explain it?
Hangi akaligitya, “kuimpyanie u utemi nuang'wa itunda ni kintu kii, ang'wi kutumile mpyani kii ku uganula?
31 It is like a mustard seed which, when it is sown, is the smallest of all the seeds on earth.
Ingi anga i mbeu a haradali, naiza ai itemewe ingi niino nangaluu kukila i mbeu yihi mihi.
32 Yet, when it is sown, it grows and becomes greater than all the garden plants, and it forms large branches, so that the birds of heaven can make their nests in its shade.”
Ga, ni itungo naza itemewe, ikukula nu kutula nkulu ikilo nila mimea ihi mu shuli, hangi izipyaa ntaambi nkulu, ga ni nyunyi nia kilunde ihumaa kuzipya iuyi niao mu mululi nuakwe.”
33 With many parables like this he spoke the word to them, as much as they were able to understand,
Ku mpyani idu ai umanyisilye hangi ai uligitilye u lukani kitalao, ku upikiilo nai uhumile kulinga,
34 and he did not speak to them without a parable. But when he was alone, he explained everything to his own disciples.
hangi shanga ai uligitilye ni enso bila mpyani. Kuiti itungo nai wakatula wing'wene duu, aka aganuila kila i kintu i amanyisigwa akwe.
35 On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let us go over to the other side.”
Mu luhiku nulanso, itungo nila mpindi nai lipikiie, akaligitya kitalao, “Kweni i nkika a kabiili.”
36 So they left the crowd, taking Jesus with them, just as he was, in the boat. There were other boats going along with him.
Iti gwa akalileka i umbi, akamuhola uYesu, itungo nilanso yakondaa ai watula mukati ilinga. Malinga mauya ai atulaa palung'wi nu ng'wenso.
37 Just then a violent windstorm arose and the waves were breaking into the boat so that the boat was almost full of water.
Nu ng'wega utaki nua kimpupu ni maingu ai atulaa akingila mukati a mulinga nu mulinga ai wakondyaa kutula wizula.
38 But Jesus himself was in the stern, asleep on a cushion. They woke him up, saying, “Teacher, do you not care that we are about to die?”
Kuiti uYesu mukola ai ukoli mu shetri, ulae mu muto. Akamutambuila, azeligitya, “Ng'walimu, shanga ulingile kina usese kuusha?”
39 He got up, rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” Then the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
Hangi akauka, akaukenela u ng'wega nu kuluila u luzi, “Itule ihi twii, ulyuuku.” Ung'wega ukapela, hangi ai ituile nu ulyuuku ukulu.
40 Then he said to them, “Why are you afraid? Do you still not have faith?”
Hangi akaligitya kitalao, “Ku niki mukitumba? Itii mukili miagila u uhuiili?”
41 They were filled with great fear and said to one another, “Who then is this, because even the wind and the sea obey him?”
Akizuilwa nu woa ukulu mukati ao hangi akitambulya enso ku enso, “Uyu ingi nyenyu hangi, ku nsoko ga nu ng'wega nu luzi ikumugombya.”
