Mark 6
1 He went out from there and came to his hometown, and his disciples followed him.
Le esia megbe la, Yesu kple eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo dzo le nuto ma me yi Nazaret si nye ededu me.
2 When the Sabbath came, he taught in the synagogue. Many people heard him and they were amazed. They said, “Where did he get these teachings?” “What is this wisdom that has been given to him?” “What are these miracles that he does with his hands?”
Le Dzudzɔgbe ŋkeke dzi la, eyi ƒuƒoƒe la ɖafia nu, eye ame geɖe siwo se eƒe nufiafia la ƒe nu ku. Wobia be, “Afi ka ame sia xɔ nu siawo tsoe? Nunya ka tɔgbi wonae be wòte ŋu le nukunu siawo wɔm!
3 “Is this not the carpenter, the son of Mary and the brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? Are his sisters not here with us?” They were offended by Jesus.
Alo menye ame siae nye atikpala la oa? Menye Maria ƒe viŋutsu si nɔviwoe nye Yakobo, Yosef, Yuda kple Simɔn, siwo le mía dome, eye nɔvia nyɔnuwo hã le mía dome oa?” Esia na eƒe nu ve dɔme na wo ŋutɔ.
4 Then Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor, except in his hometown and among his own relatives and in his own household.”
Yesu gblɔ na wo be, “Bubu menɔa nyagblɔɖila aɖeke ŋu le eya ŋutɔ ƒe dedu me, amewo dome kple eya ŋutɔ ƒe aƒe me o.”
5 He was unable to do any mighty work, except to lay his hands on a few sick people and heal them.
Le ameawo ƒe dzimaxɔse ta la, mete ŋu wɔ nukunu gãwo le wo dome o, asi ko wòda ɖe dɔléla ʋɛ aɖewo dzi heyɔ dɔ wo.
6 He was amazed at their unbelief. Then he went around the villages teaching.
Ewɔ nuku na Yesu ŋutɔ be wo detɔwo mexɔ edzi se o, ale wòdzo ɖatsa le kɔƒewo me nɔ nu fiam amewo.
7 Then he called the twelve and began to send them out two by two, and he gave them authority over the unclean spirits,
Yesu yɔ eƒe nusrɔ̃la wuieveawo, eye wòdɔ wo eveve hena ŋusẽ wo be woanya gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo do goe le amewo me.
8 and instructed them to take nothing for their journey, except a staff—no bread, no bag, and no money in their belts—
Egblɔ na wo be, “Migatsɔ naneke ɖe asi hena mɔzɔzɔ o, negbe atizɔti ko. Migatsɔ nuɖuɖu, mɔzɔkotoku alo ga hã ɖe asi o.
9 but to wear sandals, and not to wear two tunics.
Migatsɔ afɔkpa eve alo awu eve teti hã o.
10 He said to them, “Whenever you enter a house, remain until you go away from there.
Midze aƒe ɖeka ko me le kɔƒe ɖe sia ɖe me; miganɔ tsatsam tso aƒe me yi aƒe me o.
11 If any town will not receive you or listen to you, when you leave that place, shake the dust off your feet as a testimony to them.”
Nenye be kɔƒe aɖe me tɔwo mexɔ mi alo ɖo to mi o la, miʋuʋu ke si lé ɖe afɔƒome na mi la ɖi, eye miadzo. Esia nye ɖase be miegblẽ teƒe la ɖi be nu sia nu si adzɔ ɖe edzi la nadzɔ faa.”
12 They went out and proclaimed that people should turn away from their sins.
Nusrɔ̃lawo dze mɔ henɔ nu xlɔ̃m ame sia ame si wodo goe le mɔa dzi la be wòatrɔ dzime.
13 They cast out many demons, and anointed many sick people with oil and healed them.
Wonya gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo le amewo me, eye wosi ami na dɔnɔwo heda gbe le wo ŋu.
14 King Herod heard this, for Jesus' name had become well known. Some were saying, “John the Baptist has been raised from the dead, and that is why these miraculous powers are at work in him.”
Fia Herod se Yesu ŋkɔ, elabena ame sia ame nɔ nu ƒom tso nukunu siwo katã wɔm wònɔ la ŋu. Fia la bu be Yohanes Mawutsidetanamelae gagbɔ agbe, elabena amewo le gbɔgblɔm be, “Yohanes Mawutsidetanamelae fɔ, eya ta wòte ŋu le nukunu siawo wɔm ɖo.”
15 Some others said, “He is Elijah.” Still others said, “He is a prophet, like one of the prophets in ancient times.”
Ame aɖewo hã bu be Yesue nye Eliya, Mawu ƒe Nyagblɔɖila xoxoawo dometɔ ɖeka, si gava dzɔ, eye ɖewo hã bu be Yesue nye Mawu ƒe Gbeƒãɖela yeye si si ŋusẽ le abe esiwo nɔ anyi va yi la ene.
16 But when Herod heard this he said, “John, whom I beheaded, has been raised.”
Ke Herod ya gblɔ kple kakaɖedzi be, “Yohanes, ame si nu metso ta le la kokokoe fɔ tso yɔ me.”
17 For Herod sent to have John arrested and he had him bound in prison on account of Herodias (his brother Philip's wife), because he had married her.
Herod sia nye ame si dɔ asrafowo be woalé Yohanes de gaxɔ me. Ewɔ esia le Herod, nɔvia Filipo srɔ̃ si wòxɔ la ta,
18 For John told Herod, “It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife.”
elabena Yohanes gblɔ na Herod be, “Se meɖe mɔ be nàxɔ nɔviwò srɔ̃ aɖe o.”
19 But Herodias held on to anger against him and wanted to kill him, but she could not,
Le esia ta Herod di vevie be woawu Yohanes, gake fia la meda asi ɖe ɖoɖo sia dzi o,
20 for Herod feared John; he knew that he was a righteous and holy man, and he kept him safe. Listening to him made him greatly upset, yet he heard him gladly.
elabena Herod tsɔ bubu geɖe na Yohanes le eƒe ame ɖɔʋu kple ame kɔkɔenyenye ta, eya ta etsɔe de eya ŋutɔ ƒe dzikpɔkpɔ te. Nenye be Herod kple Yohanes wole dze ɖom la, nya siwo Yohanes gblɔna la ɖea fu na Herod ƒe susu ŋutɔ, gake zi geɖe la, edina kokoko be yeaɖo dze kplii.
21 Then the opportunity came when Herod had his birthday and he made a dinner for his officials, and his commanders, and leaders of Galilee.
Mlɔeba la, Herod va kpɔ mɔnu aɖe si dzi wòato awu Yohanes. Herod ƒe dzigbezã ɖo, eye wòɖo kplɔ̃ na eƒe kpeɖeŋutɔwo, ame siwo nye asrafowo ƒe amegãwo kple ame ŋkuta, siwo tso Galilea la le fiasã la me.
22 The daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced for them, and she pleased Herod and his dinner guests. The king said to the girl, “Ask me for anything you want and I will give it to you.”
Eva dzɔ be Herod ƒe vinyɔnu va ɖu ɣe na ame kpekpeawo. Eƒe ɣeɖuɖu do dzidzɔ na ame sia ame ŋutɔ. Le esia ta fia la gblɔ na nyɔnuvi la be, “Bia nu sia nu si nèdi tso asinye la, mana wò.”
23 He swore to her saying, “Whatever you ask of me, I will give you, up to half of my kingdom.”
Eka atam nɛ be, “Nu sia nu si nàbia la, matsɔe na wò; nenye nye fiaɖuƒe la ƒe afã nèbia hã la, mana wò.”
24 She went out and said to her mother, “What should I ask him for?” She said, “The head of John the Baptist.”
Nyɔnuvi la yi dadaa gbɔ ɖagblɔ nya la nɛ. Dadaa gblɔ nɛ be, “Yi nàbia Yohanes Mawutsidetanamela ƒe ta.”
25 She immediately hurried back to the king, and she asked, saying, “I want you to give me, right now, the head of John the Baptist on a wooden platter.”
Nyɔnuvi la gaɖe abla va fia la gbɔ va gblɔ nɛ be, “Mele Yohanes Mawutsidetanamela ƒe ta dim fifi laa, nenɔ agba me woatsɔ vɛ nam.”
26 Though this deeply grieved the king, he could not refuse her request because of the oath he had made and because of his dinner guests.
Nya sia ve fia la ŋutɔ, gake anye ŋukpe be wòada le atam si wòka la dzi le eƒe ame kpekpeawo ŋkume,
27 So the king sent a soldier from his guard and commanded him to bring him John's head. The guard went and beheaded him in the prison.
eya ta eɖo asrafo si le eŋu dzɔm la ɖa be wòayi aɖatso ta le Yohanes nu atsɔ vɛ na ye. Asrafo la yi ɖatso ta le Yohanes nu le gaxɔ la me
28 He brought his head on a platter and gave it to the girl, and the girl gave it to her mother.
hetsɔ de agba me vɛ na nyɔnuvi la, eye wòtsɔe yi na dadaa.
29 When his disciples heard of this, they came and took his body and placed it in a tomb.
Esi Yohanes ƒe nusrɔ̃lawo se nu si dzɔ la, woyi ɖaxɔ eƒe kukua ɖaɖi.
30 The apostles returned to Jesus and told him all that they had done and taught.
Yesu ƒe nusrɔ̃lawo trɔ tso woƒe mɔzɔzɔ la gbɔ, eye wogblɔ nu siwo katã wowɔ, nya siwo katã wogblɔ kple teƒe siwo katã wode la nɛ.
31 Then he said to them, “Come away by yourselves into a deserted place and rest a while.” For many were coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat.
Yesu se nya siawo keŋ, eye wòɖo aɖaŋu na wo be, “Mina míadzo le amehawo dome vie aɖadi teƒe aɖe anɔ adzudzɔ sẽe.” Elabena ame geɖewo ŋutɔ nɔ wo gbɔ vam henɔ dzodzom, ale be ɣeyiɣi meli woaɖu nu o.
32 So they went away in the boat to a deserted place by themselves.
Ale wodzo le teƒe sia kple ʋu heyi teƒe aɖe si zi ɖoɖoe wu,
33 But they saw them leaving and many recognized them, and they ran there together on foot from all the towns, and they arrived there before them.
gake ame geɖewo gakpɔ wo xoxo, wonya afi si yim wonɔ, eya ta woƒu du dze ŋgɔ na wo, zɔ ƒua nu yi ɖakpe wo esi woɖi le ʋu la me teti ko.
34 When they came ashore, he saw a great crowd and he had compassion on them because they were like sheep without a shepherd. So he began to teach them many things.
Abe ale si wònɔna ɖaa ene la, ameha gã aɖe gava kpe Yesu le afi sia. Ameawo ƒe nu wɔ nublanui nɛ ŋutɔ, elabena wole abe alẽha si kplɔla meli na o la ene. Efia nu geɖe siwo wòle be woanya la wo.
35 When the hour was late, his disciples came to him and said, “This is a deserted place and the hour is already late.
Le ɣetrɔ me la, eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo va gblɔ nɛ be, “Teƒe sia tso abo, evɔ zã hã le dodom,
36 Send them away so that they may go into the nearby countryside and villages to buy something to eat for themselves.”
eya ta gblɔ na ameawo be woayi kɔƒe kple agble siwo te ɖe afi sia ŋu la me aɖadi nuɖuɖu na wo ɖokuiwo.”
37 But he answered and said to them, “You give them something to eat.” They said to him, “Can we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give it to them to eat?”
Gake Yesu gblɔ na wo be, “Miawo mina nuɖuɖu wo.” Nusrɔ̃lawo biae be, “Nu ka míana wo? Hafi woate ŋu ana nuɖuɖu ameha sia la, ehiã ga home gã aɖe.”
38 He said to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go and see.” When they found out, they said, “Five loaves and two fish.”
Yesu bia wo be, “Nuɖuɖu agbɔsɔsɔ ka sinue le mia si? Miyi miakpɔe ɖa.” Woyi gbɔ va gblɔ nɛ be, “Abolo atɔ̃ kple tɔmelã meme eve koe li.”
39 He commanded all the people to sit down in groups upon the green grass.
Yesu gblɔ na wo be woana ameawo nanɔ anyi ɖe ƒuƒoƒowo me le gbe dama la dzi.
40 They sat down in groups of hundreds and fifties.
Ale ameawo nɔ anyi ɖe hatsotso alafawo kple blaatɔ̃wo me.
41 He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven he blessed and broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples to set before the people. He also divided the two fish among them all.
Azɔ Yesu tsɔ abolo atɔ̃ la kple tɔmelã meme eve la, eye wòwu mo dzi, heda akpe ɖe wo ta. Eŋe aboloawo me, eye wòtsɔ wo kple tɔmelãwo na nusrɔ̃la ɖe sia ɖe be wòaɖo ameawo ƒe akɔme.
42 They all ate until they were satisfied.
Ameawo ɖu nu la ale gbegbe be woɖi ƒo wu ale si hiã,
43 They took up broken pieces of bread, twelve baskets full, and also pieces of the fish.
eye esi nusrɔ̃lawo ƒo ƒu abolo kple tɔmelã kakɛ siwo susɔ la, woyɔ kusi wuieve.
44 There were five thousand men who ate the loaves.
Ke ŋutsu siwo ɖu nua la ƒe xexlẽme anɔ akpe atɔ̃.
45 Immediately he made his disciples get into the boat and go ahead of him to the other side, to Bethsaida, while he sent the crowd away.
Le nuɖuɖu la nana ameawo vɔ megbe teti ko la, Yesu gblɔ na eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo be woage ɖe ʋu la me, akui atso ƒu la ayi Betsaida afi si yeava tu wo le emegbe. Ebe ye ŋutɔ yeado megbe ado mɔ ameha la woayi aƒe me.
46 When they were gone, he went up the mountain to pray.
Le esia megbe la, Yesu yi togbɛ aɖe dzi be yeado gbe ɖa.
47 Evening came, and the boat was now in the middle of the sea, and he was alone on land.
Le zã me esi tɔdziʋua ɖo ƒu la ƒe titina la, eya ɖeka susɔ ɖe gota.
48 He saw that they straining against the oars, for the wind was against them. About the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea, and he wanted to pass by them.
Yesu ɖeka nɔ godzi kpɔ wo ɖa. Ekpɔ be ya sesẽ si nɔ ƒoƒom la nɔ fu ɖem na wo ale gbegbe be ʋua kuku sesẽ na wo ŋutɔ. Anɔ abe fɔŋli ga etɔ̃ me ene la, Yesu zɔ ƒu la dzi ɖo ta wo gbɔ. Ewɔ abe ɖe wòbe yeazɔ to wo ŋu ene,
49 But when they saw him walking on the sea, they thought he was a ghost and cried out,
gake wo katã wokpɔe wònɔ zɔzɔm le ƒu la dzi, eya ta wodo vɔvɔ̃ɣli, elabena wobu be ŋɔlie.
50 because they saw him and were terrified. Immediately he spoke to them and said to them, “Be courageous! It is I! Do not be afraid!”
Gake eƒo nu gblɔ na wo enumake be, “Miaƒe dzi nedze eme. Nyee, migavɔ̃ o.”
51 He got into the boat with them, and the wind ceased blowing. They were completely amazed.
Azɔ ege ɖe ʋu la me, eye yaƒoƒo la tɔ. Nusrɔ̃lawo katã ƒe nu ku ŋutɔ,
52 For they had not understood what the loaves meant. Instead, their hearts were hardened.
elabena va se ɖe fifia la, womese Yesu ƒe wɔnawo gɔme o. Gawu la, womese nukunu gã si wòwɔ le ɣetrɔ ma hã gɔme o, elabena woƒe dzi me sẽ.
53 When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret and anchored the boat.
Wotso ƒu la va ɖi go ɖe Genesaretnyigba dzi, eye wotɔ ʋu la.
54 When they came out of the boat, the people recognized him immediately,
Ke esi wodo go le eme la, ame siwo nɔ afi ma la kpɔ Yesu dze sii enumake,
55 and they ran throughout the whole region and began to bring the sick on their mats to wherever they heard he was.
eya ta woƒu du ɖagblɔe na ame siwo katã le nuto la me be Yesu va ɖo. Ale amewo kɔ dɔnɔwo ɖe abawo dzi va egbɔ.
56 Wherever he entered into villages, or cities, or into the country, they would put the sick in the marketplaces. They begged him to let them touch the edge of his garment, and as many as touched him were healed.
Afi sia afi si Yesu yi le kɔƒewo, duwo kple agbletawo la, wokɔa dɔnɔwo vaa asiwo kple mɔwo toe, eye woɖea kuku nɛ be woaka asi eƒe awu pɛ ko ŋu. Le nyateƒe me la, ame siwo katã ka asi eŋu ko la ƒe lãme sẽna.
