Matthew 14
1 At that time did Herod the tetrarch hear the fame of Jesus,
In pacl sac Herod, leum lun acn Galilee, el lohng pweng kacl Jesus.
2 and said to his servants, 'This is John the Baptist, he did rise from the dead, and because of this the mighty energies are working in him.'
El fahk nu sin mwet pwapa lal, “El inge pa John Baptais a sifil akmoulyeyukyak el, pa oru oasr ku lal in oru mwenmen inge uh.”
3 For Herod having laid hold on John, did bind him, and did put him in prison, because of Herodias his brother Philip's wife,
Herod pa tuh sap in sruhu John, ac in kapiri el ac itukyang nu in presin. El oru ouinge ke sripacl Herodias, su tuh payuk meet sel Phillip, tamulel lal.
4 for John was saying to him, 'It is not lawful to thee to have her,'
In kutu pacl meet, John Baptais el tuh fahk nu sel Herod, “Tia fal kom in payuk sel Herodias!”
5 and, willing to kill him, he feared the multitude, because as a prophet they were holding him.
Na Herod el tuh kena unilya John, tuh el sangeng sin mwet Jew, mweyen elos pangon John el sie mwet palu.
6 But the birthday of Herod being kept, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst, and did please Herod,
Ke sun len lal Herod, acn natul Herodias el tuh tacn ye mutun walil sac. Ac ke sripen yohk engan lal Herod,
7 whereupon with an oath he professed to give her whatever she might ask.
el tuh wuleang nu sel ac fahk, “Nga fulahk lah nga ac sot nu sum kutena ma kom lungse!”
8 And she having been instigated by her mother — 'Give me (says she) here upon a plate the head of John the Baptist;
Na mutan sac fahk oana ke nina kial ah tuh fahk nu sel, “Ase nu sik ingena insifal John Baptais in sie ahlu!”
9 and the king was grieved, but because of the oaths and of those reclining with him, he commanded [it] to be given;
Tokosra el arulana oela kac, tuh mweyen el tuh wulela ye mutun mwet loh puspis, ouinge el sap in itukyang enenu lun mutan sac.
10 and having sent, he beheaded John in the prison,
Ke ma inge el sap in pakpukla sifal John in presin.
11 and his head was brought upon a plate, and was given to the damsel, and she brought [it] nigh to her mother.
Na sifa sac oan in sie ahlu ac utuku nu sin mutan fusr sac, ac el usla nu sin nina kial ah.
12 And his disciples having come, took up the body, and buried it, and having come, they told Jesus,
Mwet tuma lutlut lal John elos tuku, ac usla manol ac pikinya; tari elos som ac fahkang nu sin Jesus.
13 and Jesus having heard, withdrew thence in a boat to a desolate place by himself, and the multitudes having heard did follow him on land from the cities.
Ke Jesus el lohng pweng kacl John, el oayak ac som nu ke sie acn ma wangin mwet muta we. Mwet uh lohngak, na elos som tokol, ut na finmes uh.
14 And Jesus having come forth, saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion upon them, and did heal their infirm;
Jesus el srola liki oak uh, ac ke el liye un mwet na pus sac, el arulana pakomutalos ac el akkeyala mwet mas lalos.
15 and evening having come, his disciples came to him, saying, 'The place is desolate, and the hour hath now past, let away the multitudes that, having gone to the villages, they may buy to themselves food.'
Ke ekela, mwet tumal lutlut elos kalukyang nu yorol ac fahk, “Ac fongeni pa inge, ac acn uh loesla nu ke acn mwet uh muta we. Supwala mwet uh elos in som nu in siti srisrik ac sifacna moul mongo nalos.”
16 And Jesus said to them, 'They have no need to go away — give ye them to eat.'
Na Jesus el fahk, “Elos tia enenu in som. Komtal sang kutu mongo an elos in kang!”
17 And they say to him, 'We have not here except five loaves, and two fishes.'
Na elos fahk, “Pwayena ma oasr yorosr pa lof in bread limekosr ac ik lukwa.”
18 And he said, 'Bring ye them to me hither.'
Na el fahk, “Use nu sik.”
19 And having commanded the multitudes to recline upon the grass, and having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to the heaven, he did bless, and having broken, he gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes,
El sap mwet uh in muta fin mah uh. Na el eis lof limekosr ac ik lukwa ah, ngetak nu lucng ac sang kulo nu sin God. El kunsalik bread uh ac sang nu sin mwet tumal lutlut, na elos sang nu sin mwet uh.
20 and they did all eat, and were filled, and they took up what was over of the broken pieces twelve hand-baskets full;
Mwet nukewa mongo ac kihpi. Na mwet tumal lutlut elos orani fotoh singoul luo ke luwen mongo uh.
21 and those eating were about five thousand men, apart from women and children.
Pisen mwet mukul ma mongo uh sahp ac oasr ke tausin limekosr, tia oaoa mutan ac tulik uh.
22 And immediately Jesus constrained his disciples to go into the boat, and to go before him to the other side, till he might let away the multitudes;
Na Jesus el sap mwet tumal lutlut in sroang nu fin oak uh ac kalot meet nu lefahlo ke el supwalik mwet uh.
23 and having let away the multitudes, he went up to the mountain by himself to pray, and evening having come, he was there alone,
Tukun el supwalik mwet uh, el utyak nu fineol uh in pre we. Ke ekela, Jesus el mukena muta in acn sac,
24 and the boat was now in the midst of the sea, distressed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.
ac ke pacl se inge, oak soko ah som loes tari in lulu ah, ac noa uh sisot sisma mweyen eng uh tuhyak ac fungulya oak uh.
25 And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went away to them, walking upon the sea,
Inmasrlon ao tolu ac ao onkosr ke lotutang, Jesus el tuku sun mwet tumal lutlut, ac el fahsr na fin kof uh.
26 and the disciples having seen him walking upon the sea, were troubled saying — 'It is an apparition,' and from the fear they cried out;
Ke elos liyal ke el fahsr fin kof uh elos arulana sangeng, ac kutu selos fahk, “Inut se!” ac wowoyak ke sangeng.
27 and immediately Jesus spake to them, saying, 'Be of good courage, I am [he], be not afraid.'
In kitin pacl ah na Jesus el kasang nu selos ac fahk, “Akkeye kowos, nga na pa inge. Nimet sangeng!”
28 And Peter answering him said, 'Sir, if it is thou, bid me come to thee upon the waters;'
Na Peter el kasla ac fahk, “Leum, fin kom pa ingan, sap nga in fahsrot fin kof uh nu yurum.”
29 and he said, 'Come;' and having gone down from the boat, Peter walked upon the waters to come unto Jesus,
Na Jesus el fahk, “Fahsru!” Na Peter el srola liki oak uh ac mutawauk in fahsr fin kof uh nu yurin Jesus.
30 but seeing the wind vehement, he was afraid, and having begun to sink, he cried out, saying, 'Sir, save me.'
Tusruktu ke el liye upa lun eng uh, el sangeng ac mutawauk in tili nu inkof uh. Na el wowoyak ac fahk, “O Leum, moliyula!”
31 And immediately Jesus, having stretched forth the hand, laid hold of him, and saith to him, 'Little faith! for what didst thou waver?'
In kitin pacl ah na Jesus el asroela paol, sruokilya ac fahk, “O kom su srikla lulalfongi la! Efu kom ku alolo?”
32 and they having gone to the boat the wind lulled,
Eltal kewa sroang nu fin oak uh, na eng uh mihsla.
33 and those in the boat having come, did bow to him, saying, 'Truly — God's Son art thou.'
Mwet tumal lutlut su muta in oak uh elos epasr ac alu nu sin Jesus. Elos fahk, “Pwayena kom Wen nutin God!”
34 And having passed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret,
Elos tupalma in lulu sac ac oai in acn Gennesaret,
35 and having recognized him, the men of that place sent forth to all that region round about, and they brought to him all who were ill,
ac mwet we akilenul Jesus. Ouinge elos sapwalik mwet nu yurin mwet mas nukewa in acn ma oan apkuran nu we tuh elos in usalosme nu yurin Jesus.
36 and were calling on him that they might only touch the fringe of his garment, and as many as did touch were saved.
Elos kwafe sel elan lela mwet mas uh in kahlyena finne pulan nuknuk lal uh; ac mwet nukewa su kahlye, elos kwela.
