Matthew 8
1 Upon descending from the hill country He was followed by immense crowds.
Ọtụtụ mmadụ sooro Jisọs mgbe o si nʼugwu ahụ rịdata.
2 And a leper came to Him, and throwing himself at His feet, said, "Sir, if only you are willing you are able to cleanse me."
Mgbe ha na-aga nʼụzọ, otu onye ekpenta bịakwutere ya kpọọ isiala nye ya, rịọ ya sị, “Onyenwe m, ọ bụrụ na ị chọrọ, ị pụrụ ime ka m dị ọcha.”
3 So Jesus put out His hand and touched him, and said, "I am willing: be cleansed." Instantly he was cleansed from his leprosy;
O setịpụrụ aka ya, metụ ya sị, “Achọrọ m ka ị dị ọcha, dịrịkwa ọcha!” Ngwangwa, ekpenta ahụ lara.
4 and Jesus said to him, "Be careful to tell no one, but go and show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift which Moses appointed as evidence for them."
Jisọs nyere nwoke ahụ iwu sị ya, “Hụ na ịgwaghị onye ọbụla, kama gaa gosi onye nchụaja onwe gị, chụọkwa aja onyinye dịka Mosis, nyere nʼiwu, ka ọ bụrụ ihe ama nye ya.”
5 After His entry into Capernaum a Captain came to Him, and entreated Him.
Mgbe ọ banyere na Kapanọm, otu onye ọchịagha bịakwutere ya rịọọ ka o nyere ya aka.
6 "Sir," he said, "my servant at home is lying ill with paralysis, and is suffering great pain."
Ọ sịrị, “Onyenwe m, onye na-ejere m ozi dina nʼụlọ nʼoke ihe mgbu, akụkụ ahụ ya kpọnwụkwara akpọnwụ.”
7 "I will come and cure him," said Jesus.
Jisọs sịrị ya, “Ọ bụ m bịa gwọọ ya?”
8 "Sir," replied the Captain, "I am not a fit person to receive you under my roof: merely say the word, and my servant will be cured.
Ma onye ọchịagha ahụ zara ya sị, “Onyenwe m, ekwesighị m ka ị bata nʼokpuru ụlọ m. Naanị nọdụ nʼebe a, kwuo okwu, ahụ ga-adịkwa onye na-ejere m ozi ike.
9 For I myself am also under authority, and have soldiers under me. To one I say 'Go,' and he goes, to another 'Come,' and he comes, and to my slave 'Do this or that,' and he does it."
Nʼihi na mụ onwe m bụkwa onye nọ nʼokpuru ikike ọchịchị, nwee ndị agha nọ nʼokpuru m. Ana m asị onye nke a, ‘gaa.’ Ọ gaa, sịkwa onye nke ọzọ, ‘bịa.’ Ọ bịa. Ana m asị ohu m, ‘mee nke a.’ Ọ na-emekwa ya.”
10 Jesus listened to this reply, and was astonished, and said to the people following Him, "I solemnly tell you that in no Israelite have I found faith as great as this.
Mgbe Jisọs nụrụ okwu a, o juru ya anya nke ukwuu. Ọ gwara igwe mmadụ ahụ so ya okwu sị, “Nʼezie, ahụbeghị m okwukwe dị otu a ebe ọbụla; ọ bụladị nʼIzrel niile.
11 And I tell you that many will come from the east and from the west and will recline at table with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the Kingdom of the Heavens,
Nʼezie kwa, ọtụtụ ndị mmadụ ga-esite nʼọwụwa anyanwụ nakwa ọdịda anyanwụ bịa soro Ebraham na Aịzik na Jekọb nọkọọ nʼoriri nʼalaeze eluigwe.
12 while the natural heirs of the Kingdom will be driven out into the darkness outside: there will be the weeping aloud and the gnashing of teeth."
Ma ụmụ alaeze ahụ, ka a ga-atụpụ nʼezi, nʼime ọchịchịrị, ebe ịkwa akwa na ịta ikikere eze ga-adị.”
13 And Jesus said to the Captain, "Go, and just as you have believed, so be it for you." And the servant recovered precisely at that time.
Jisọs gwara ọchịagha ahụ okwu sị ya, “Laa! E meerela gị dị ka okwukwe gị sịrị dị.” Ahụ dịrị onye ahụ na-ejere ya ozi mma nʼotu awa ahụ.
14 After this Jesus went to the house of Peter, whose mother-in-law he found ill in bed with fever.
Mgbe Jisọs ruru nʼụlọ Pita, ọ chọpụtara na nne nwunye ya nwere ahụ ọkụ.
15 He touched her hand and the fever left her: and then she rose and waited upon Him.
Ọ metụrụ ya aka, ahụ ọkụ ahụ hapụrụ ya, o biliri malite ijere ya ozi.
16 In the evening many demoniacs were brought to Him, and with a word He expelled the demons; and He cured all the sick,
Nʼoge uhuruchi, ha kpọtaara ya ọtụtụ ndị mmụọ ọjọọ na-esogbu. O ji okwu ọnụ chụpụ mmụọ ọjọọ ahụ niile, gwọọkwa ndị niile ahụ na-adịghị ike.
17 in order that this prediction of the Prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled, "He took on Him our weaknesses, and bore the burden of our diseases."
Nke a bụ imezu amụma ahụ Aịzaya buru sị, “O bupụrụ nrịa nrịa anyị niile, burukwa ọrịa anyị niile.”
18 Seeing great crowds about Him Jesus had given directions to cross to the other side of the Lake,
Mgbe Jisọs hụrụ igwe mmadụ dị ukwuu ndị gbara ya gburugburu, ọ nyere ndị na-eso ụzọ ya iwu ka ha gafee nʼofe nke ọzọ.
19 when a Scribe came and said to Him, "Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go."
Nʼoge ahụ, otu onye nʼetiti ndị na-ezi iwu bịakwutere ya sị ya, “Onye nkuzi, aga m eso gị gaa ebe ọbụla ị na-aga.”
20 "Foxes have holes," replied Jesus, "and birds have nests; but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head."
Jisọs zara, sị, “Nkịta ọhịa nwere ọnụ ebe ha na-edina. Ụmụ nnụnụ nke igwe nwekwara akwụ; ma Nwa nke Mmadụ enweghị ebe obibi.”
21 Another of the disciples said to Him, "Sir, allow me first to go and bury my father."
Otu onye ọzọ nʼime ndị na-eso ụzọ ya sịrị ya, “Onyenwe m, aga m eso gị, kama kwere ka m buru ụzọ gaa lie nna m.”
22 "Follow me," said Jesus, "and leave the dead to bury their own dead."
Ma Jisọs zara sị ya, “Soro m ugbu a. Hapụ ndị nwụrụ anwụ ka ha lie ndị nwụrụ anwụ ibe ha.”
23 Then He went on board a fishing-boat, and His disciples followed Him.
Mgbe ọ banyere nʼụgbọ, ndị na-eso ụzọ ya sooro ya.
24 But suddenly there arose a great storm on the Lake, so that the waves threatened to engulf the boat; but He was asleep.
Nʼotu ntabi anya, oke ifufe bidoro ife nʼọdọ mmiri ahụ, nke mere na ebili mmiri na-ekpuchi ụgbọ ahụ. Ma ọ nọ na-arahụ ụra mgbe ihe ndị a na-eme.
25 So they came and woke Him, crying, "Master, save us, we are drowning!"
Ndị na-eso ụzọ ya jekwuuru ya, kpọtee ya, sị ya, “Onyenwe anyị, zọpụta anyị! Lee, na anyị nʼala nʼiyi.”
26 "Why are you so easily frightened," He replied, "you men of little faith?" Then He rose and reproved the winds and the waves, and there was a perfect calm;
Ma ọ zaghachiri, “Unu ndị okwukwe nta, gịnị mere ụjọ ji na-atụ unu?” Mgbe ahụ o biliri baara ifufe ahụ na ebili mmiri ahụ mba. Ha niile dajụrụ, deere jii.
27 and the men, filled with amazement, exclaimed, "What kind of man is this? for the very winds and waves obey him!"
O juru ndị na-eso ụzọ ya anya, mee ka ha jụọ ajụjụ sị, “Ọ bụ ụdị mmadụ dị aṅaa ka nwoke a bụ? Ọ bụladị ifufe na ebili mmiri na-eme ihe o kwuru.”
28 On His arrival at the other side, in the country of the Gadarenes, there met Him two men possessed by demons, coming from among the tombs: they were so dangerously fierce that no one was able to pass that way.
Mgbe o rutere nʼofe nke ọzọ nke obodo Gadarin, mmadụ abụọ ndị mmụọ ọjọọ si nʼebe a na-eli ozu zutere ya. Ha na-akpa ike nke ukwuu, na ọ dịkwaghị onye na-esite nʼụzọ ahụ agafe nʼihi ha.
29 They cried aloud, "What hast Thou to do with us, Thou Son of God? Hast Thou come here to torment us before the time?"
Ngwangwa, ha tiri mkpu bido na-ajụ ajụjụ sị, “Gịnị ka anyị na gị nwekọrọ, gị Ọkpara Chineke? Ị gaghị echekwa eche ka oge ruo tupu ibido ịta anyị ahụhụ?”
30 Now at some distance from them a vast herd of swine were feeding.
Igwe ezi nọ nʼakụkụ ebe ahụ na-akpa nri.
31 So the demons entreated Him. "If Thou drivest us out," they said, "send us into the herd of swine."
Mmụọ ọjọọ ndị a rịọrọ ya arịrịọ sị, “Ọ bụrụ na ị chụpụ anyị, biko, hapụ anyị ka anyị banye nʼime ezi ndị a.”
32 "Go," He replied. Then they came out from the men and went into the swine, whereupon the entire herd instantly rushed down the cliff into the Lake and perished in the water.
Ọ nyere ha iwu sị ha, “Ngwa, gaanụ!” Ha sitere nʼime mmadụ abụọ ahụ pụta banye nʼime igwe ezi ahụ. Otu mgbe ahụ kwa, ezi ndị ahụ niile gbaara ọsọ site na mkputamkpu ala ọnụ mmiri ahụ dabanyechaa nʼime mmiri ahụ. Ha nwụkwara nʼime ya.
33 The swineherds fled, and went and told the whole story in the town, including what had happened to the demoniacs.
Ndị na-elekọta igwe ezi ndị ahụ gbapụrụ gbaga nʼime obodo kọọrọ ha ihe niile mere; tinyere ihe mere ndị ahụ mmụọ ọjọọ na-esogbu.
34 So at once the whole population came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw Him, they besought Him to leave their country.
Ya mere ndị niile nọ nʼobodo ahụ pụtara ịhụ Jisọs. Mgbe ha hụrụ ya ha rịọrọ ya sị ya pụọra ha nʼakụkụ obodo ha.
