Matthew 14
1 At that time, Herod the tetrarch heard the report concerning Yeshua,
Na rĩrĩ, hĩndĩ ĩyo, Mũthamaki Herode nĩaiguire ngumo ya Jesũ,
2 and said to his servants, “This is Yochanan the Immerser. He is risen from the dead. That is why these powers work in him.”
nake akĩĩra arĩa maamũtungataga atĩrĩ, “Ũcio nĩ Johana Mũbatithania; nĩ ariũkĩte kuuma kũrĩ arĩa akuũ! Nĩkĩo arĩ na hinya mũnene ũguo wa kũringa ciama.”
3 For Herod had arrested Yochanan, bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife.
Na rĩrĩ, Herode nĩanyiitĩte Johana akamuoha, na akamũikia njeera nĩ ũndũ wa Herodia, ũrĩa warĩ mũtumia wa mũrũ wa nyina Filipu,
4 For Yochanan said to him, “It is not lawful for you to have her.”
tondũ Johana nĩamwĩrĩte atĩrĩ: “Watho ndũgwĩtĩkĩrĩtie ũmũhikie.”
5 When he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.
Herode nĩendaga kũũraga Johana, no nĩetigagĩra andũ, tondũ nĩmeetĩkĩtie atĩ Johana aarĩ mũnabii.
6 But when Herod’s birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced among them and pleased Herod.
Mũthenya wa gũkũngũĩra gũciarwo kwa Herode-rĩ, mwarĩ wa Herodia nĩainĩire andũ, na agĩkenia Herode mũno.
7 Therefore he promised with an oath to give her whatever she should ask.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Herode akĩĩhĩta na mwĩhĩtwa atĩ nĩekũmũhe kĩrĩa gĩothe angĩendire.
8 She, being prompted by her mother, said, “Give me here on a platter the head of Yochanan the Immerser.”
Nake mũirĩtu ũcio aarĩkia gũtaarwo nĩ nyina, akiuga atĩrĩ, “He mũtwe wa Johana Mũbatithania o rĩu ũrĩ thĩinĩ wa kiuga.”
9 The king was grieved, but for the sake of his oaths and of those who sat at the table with him, he commanded it to be given,
Mũthamaki nĩataangĩkire mũno, no nĩ ũndũ wa mwĩhĩtwa wake, na ageni arĩa maarĩ iruga-inĩ rĩake-rĩ, agĩathana atĩ mũirĩtu ũcio aheo kĩrĩa eetĩtie.
10 and he sent and beheaded Yochanan in the prison.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩtũmana kũu njeera na Johana akĩrengwo mũtwe.
11 His head was brought on a platter and given to the young lady; and she brought it to her mother.
Naguo mũtwe ũcio wake ũkĩrehwo na kiuga, ũkĩnengerwo mũirĩtu ũcio, nake akĩũtwarĩra nyina.
12 His disciples came, took the body, and buried it. Then they went and told Yeshua.
Nao arutwo a Johana magĩthiĩ makĩoya kĩimba gĩake, magĩgĩthika, magĩcooka magĩthiĩ makĩĩra Jesũ.
13 Now when Yeshua heard this, he withdrew from there in a boat to a deserted place apart. When the multitudes heard it, they followed him on foot from the cities.
Na rĩrĩa Jesũ aiguire ũhoro ũcio, akiuma kũu ahaicĩte gatarũ andũ matekũmenya, agĩthiĩ handũ hataarĩ na andũ. Nakĩo kĩrĩndĩ kĩaigua ũguo-rĩ, gĩkiuma matũũra-inĩ gĩkĩmũrũmĩrĩra na magũrũ.
14 Yeshua went out, and he saw a great multitude. He had compassion on them and healed their sick.
Rĩrĩa Jesũ oimire gatarũ na akĩona andũ aingĩ, akĩmaiguĩra tha, na akĩhonia arũaru ao.
15 When evening had come, his disciples came to him, saying, “This place is deserted, and the hour is already late. Send the multitudes away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves food.”
Na gwakuhĩrĩria gũtuka-rĩ, arutwo ake magĩthiĩ harĩ we, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Gũkũ nĩ kũndũ gũtarĩ mĩciĩ, na nĩkũratuka. Ĩra andũ aya mathiĩ, nĩgeetha makegũrĩre irio tũtũũra-inĩ.”
16 But Yeshua said to them, “They don’t need to go away. You give them something to eat.”
Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Hatirĩ bata wa mathiĩ. Mahei gĩa kũrĩa inyuĩ ene.”
17 They told him, “We only have here five loaves and two fish.”
Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Haha tũrĩ na mĩgate ĩtano tu na thamaki igĩrĩ.”
18 He said, “Bring them here to me.”
Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ndeherai haha.”
19 He commanded the multitudes to sit down on the grass; and he took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, broke and gave the loaves to the disciples; and the disciples gave to the multitudes.
Nake agĩathana andũ maikare thĩ nyeki-inĩ. Akĩoya mĩgate ĩyo ĩtano na thamaki icio igĩrĩ, akĩrora igũrũ, agĩcookia ngaatho, akĩenyũranga mĩgate ĩyo. Agĩcooka akĩmĩnengera arutwo, nao arutwo makĩhe andũ.
20 They all ate and were filled. They took up twelve baskets full of that which remained left over from the broken pieces.
Othe makĩrĩa makĩhũũna, nao arutwo makĩũngania cienyũ iria ciatigarĩte makĩiyũria ciondo ikũmi na igĩrĩ.
21 Those who ate were about five thousand men, in addition to women and children.
Mũigana wa andũ arĩa maarĩire maarĩ ta arũme ngiri ithano, andũ-a-nja na ciana matatarĩtwo.
22 Immediately Yeshua made the disciples get into the boat and go ahead of him to the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.
O hĩndĩ ĩyo Jesũ akĩĩra arutwo ake matoonye gatarũ, mathiĩ mbere yake mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ wa iria mũira wa oigĩre kĩrĩndĩ ũhoro.
23 After he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into the mountain by himself to pray. When evening had come, he was there alone.
Thuutha wa kũmoigĩra ũhoro-rĩ, akĩambata kĩrĩma-inĩ arĩ wiki nĩguo akahooe. Na gũgĩtuka aarĩ o ho wiki,
24 But the boat was now in the middle of the sea, distressed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.
no gatarũ nĩkarĩkĩtie gũthiĩ itĩĩna iraiharaihu kuuma thĩ nyũmũ, gakĩhũũragwo nĩ makũmbĩ ma maaĩ tondũ kerekeire na kũrĩa rũhuho ruoimaga.
25 In the fourth watch of the night, Yeshua came to them, walking on the sea.
Na rĩrĩ, ta thaa kenda cia ũtukũ-rĩ, Jesũ agĩthiĩ kũrĩ o agereire maaĩ igũrũ.
26 When the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, “It’s a ghost!” and they cried out for fear.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa arutwo maamuonire agĩthiĩ agereire maaĩ igũrũ, makĩnyiitwo nĩ guoya, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Ĩrĩa nĩ ngoma,” na magĩkaya nĩ gwĩtigĩra.
27 But immediately Yeshua spoke to them, saying, “Cheer up! It is I! Don’t be afraid.”
No hĩndĩ o ĩyo Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ũmĩrĩriai! Nĩ niĩ. Tigai gwĩtigĩra.”
28 Peter answered him and said, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the waters.”
Petero akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, akorwo nĩwe-rĩ, njĩĩra njũke kũrĩ we ngereire maaĩ igũrũ.”
29 He said, “Come!” Peter stepped down from the boat and walked on the waters to come to Yeshua.
Nake Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũka.” Hĩndĩ ĩyo, Petero akiuma gatarũ, agĩthiĩ agereire maaĩ igũrũ erekeire harĩ Jesũ.
30 But when he saw that the wind was strong, he was afraid, and beginning to sink, he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!”
No rĩrĩa oonire rũhuho, agĩĩtigĩra, na akĩambĩrĩria gũtoonyerera maaĩ-inĩ, agĩkaya, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, honokia!”
31 Immediately Yeshua stretched out his hand, took hold of him, and said to him, “You of little faith, why did you doubt?”
O rĩmwe, Jesũ agĩtambũrũkia guoko, akĩmũnyiita, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Wee kaĩ ũrĩ na wĩtĩkio mũnini-ĩ! Wagĩa na nganja nĩkĩ?”
32 When they got up into the boat, the wind ceased.
Na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa maahaicire gatarũ-rĩ, rũhuho rũgĩtiga kũhurutana.
33 Those who were in the boat came and worshiped him, saying, “You are truly the Son of God!”
Hĩndĩ ĩyo arĩa maarĩ thĩinĩ wa gatarũ makĩmũgooca, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ma wee nĩwe Mũrũ wa Ngai.”
34 When they had crossed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret.
Na maarĩkia kũringa mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ, magĩkinya bũrũri wa Genesareti.
35 When the people of that place recognized him, they sent into all that surrounding region and brought to him all who were sick;
Na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa andũ a kũu maamenyire atĩ nĩ Jesũ, makĩhunjia ũhoro ngʼongo ciothe iria ciamarigiicĩirie. Nao makĩmũrehera andũ othe arĩa maarĩ arũaru,
36 and they begged him that they might just touch the fringe of his garment. As many as touched it were made whole.
na makĩmũthaitha areke arũaru mahutie gĩcũrĩ kĩa nguo yake, na arĩa othe maamũhutirie makĩhonio.
