Matthew 14
1 At that time did Herod the tetrarch hear the fame of Jesus,
Unsiki ghula untwa UHelode alyapuliike imhola sa Yesu.
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.'
Pe akavavuula avavombi vaake akati, “Ujuo ghwe Yohani uMwofughi, asyukile kuhuma ku vafue, fye nambe ali ni ngufu isa kuvomba ifidegho.”
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,
UHelode alyajovile enendiiki ulwakuva alyankolile uYohani, akankunga na kukun'dindila mu ndinde. UYohani alyadindilue mu vwimila uHelodia un'dala ghwa Filipo, unnuuna ghwa Helode.
4 for John was saying to him, 'It is not lawful to thee to have her,'
Alyadindilue mu ndinde ulwakuva alyam'bulile luno nalunoghiile mu ndaghilo sa Nguluve.”
5 and, willing to kill him, he feared the multitude, because as a prophet they were holding him.
UHelode ujuo akalondagha kukum'buda uYohani neke akoghopagha avaanhu ulwakuva valyankagwile uYohani kuuti m'bili.
6 But the birthday of Herod being kept, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst, and did please Herod,
Lino, pa kikulukulu ikya kukumbuka kuholua untwa uHelode, umwalive ghwa Helodia akaseeja pamaso gha vahesia. Umhinja ujuo akamhovosia fiijo UHelode,
7 whereupon with an oath he professed to give her whatever she might ask.
Kuhanga akajiigha kukumpela kino ilonda kusuuma.
8 And she having been instigated by her mother — 'Give me (says she) here upon a plate the head of John the Baptist;
Neke umhinja jula akahongua nu ng'ina ikya kusuuma, akam'buula uHelode akati, “Nilonda umheele lino lino umutu ghwa Yohani uMwafughi mu lisinia.”
9 and the king was grieved, but because of the oaths and of those reclining with him, he commanded [it] to be given;
Untwa uHelode akasukunala kyongo. Neke ulwakuva akajighile pamaaso gha vahesia vala, akalaghila kuuti umhinja jula apelue.
10 and having sent, he beheaded John in the prison,
Pe akasuung'ha umuunhu alute mu ndinde adumule umutu ghwa Yohani.
11 and his head was brought upon a plate, and was given to the damsel, and she brought [it] nigh to her mother.
Umutu ghwa Yohani ghukaletua mu lisinia, akapelua umhunja jula, ghwope akampeela ung'ina.
12 And his disciples having come, took up the body, and buried it, and having come, they told Jesus,
Pepano avavulanisivua va Yohani vakaluta, vakatoola um'bili ghwa Yohani, vakaghuviika mu mbiipa. Pe vakaluta kukum'buula uYesu imhola jila.
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.
UYesu ye apuliike imhola ijio, akavuuka pala ni ngalava na kuluta pamonga pa vusyefu. Neke avaanhu ye vapuliike kuuti uYesu avukile pala, vakahuma mu makaaja ghaave, vakaghenda lughulu, vikum'bingilila uYesu kuno alutile.
14 And Jesus having come forth, saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion upon them, and did heal their infirm;
UYesu ye ikwika mu ngalava, akalivona ilipugha ilivaha ilya vaanhu, akavavonela ikisa, akavasosia avatamu vaave.
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.'
Ye vwilile, avavulanisivua vaake vakaluta pa mwene vakam'buula vakati, “apa tukalile pe lunyika pasila kimonga, kange vwimile uvatavule avaanhu ava valutaghe mu fikaaja kuuti vakaghule ifyakulia.”
16 And Jesus said to them, 'They have no need to go away — give ye them to eat.'
UYesu akavamula akati, “Nakwekuti umpaka aveene avavuuke, muvapeele umue ikyakulia.”
17 And they say to him, 'We have not here except five loaves, and two fishes.'
Aveene vakamula vakati, “Natuli ni kimonga apa, looli ghali gha makate ghahaano ni samaki ivili.”
18 And he said, 'Bring ye them to me hither.'
UYesu akavavuula akati, “Muleete apa”
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,
Pepano akavavuula avaanhu kuuti vikale pa lisoli. Pe akatoola amakate ghala ghahaano ni samaki sila ivili, akalolla kukyanya, akamhongesia uNguluve. Pe akamenyulania amakate ghala, akavapeela avavulanisivua vaake, voope vakavaghavilaavaanhu.
20 and they did all eat, and were filled, and they took up what was over of the broken pieces twelve hand-baskets full;
Avaanhu vakalia, vakikuta. Avavulanisivua vaake vakakong'hania ifisighasi, sikamema indiilo kijigho ni vili.
21 and those eating were about five thousand men, apart from women and children.
Avaanhu vano valyaliile, avakinhaata veene valyale imbilima ihaano, kisila kuvala avakijuuva na vaana.
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;
Unsiki ghughuo, UYesu akavavuula avavulanisivua vaake kuuti vingile mu ngalava, valongole kuluta imwambo ijingi, pano umwene itavula ilipugha lya vaanhu kuuti valutaghe.
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,
Ye avatavwile, akaluta mwene ku kilunda kukufunya. Ing'hiisi jikatengula, ajiighe mwene ku kidunda.
24 and the boat was now in the midst of the sea, distressed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.
Unsiki ughuo ingalava jila jikava jifikile pakate pa lisumbe, jitovua na mavingo, ulwakuva imhepo imbaha jikasighagha kuno viluta.
25 And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went away to them, walking upon the sea,
Ye kutapihenga, uYesu akaluta ku vavulanisivua vaake, ighenda pakyanya pa malenga.
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;
Neke avavulanisivua vaake ye vikumwagha ighenda pakyanya pa malenga, vakoghopa kyongo, vakakoola vakati, “Ilisyuka”.
27 and immediately Jesus spake to them, saying, 'Be of good courage, I am [he], be not afraid.'
Unsiki ghughuo uYesu akavavuula akati, “Kangala, neene, namungoghopaghe”
28 And Peter answering him said, 'Sir, if it is thou, bid me come to thee upon the waters;'
Pe uPeteli akam'buula akati, “Ghwe Mutwa, nave lweli veeve, umbuule niise palyuve nighende pakyanya pa malenga.”
29 and he said, 'Come;' and having gone down from the boat, Peter walked upon the waters to come unto Jesus,
UYesu akamwamula akati, “Isa” pe uPeteli akiikka mu ngalava jila, akatengula pighenda pakyanya pa malenga, iluta kwa Yesu.
30 but seeing the wind vehement, he was afraid, and having begun to sink, he cried out, saying, 'Sir, save me.'
Neke ye ivona imhepo imbaha jigugula, akaghopa kyongo, akatengulakundwiila. Pe akakoola akati, “Ghwe Mutwa, umhooke!'
31 And immediately Jesus, having stretched forth the hand, laid hold of him, and saith to him, 'Little faith! for what didst thou waver?'
Nakalingi, UYesu akagholosia uluvoko lwake, akankola, akam'buula akati, “Ghwe nya lwitiko ludebe uve, kiki uli ni nganighani?
32 and they having gone to the boat the wind lulled,
Pepano uYesu nu uPeteli vakingila mu ngalava, imhepo jila jikalitima.
33 and those in the boat having come, did bow to him, saying, 'Truly — God's Son art thou.'
avavulanisivua vano valyale mu ngalava, vakamwimika uYesu vakati, “kyang'haani, uve uli Mwana ghwa Nguluve!'
34 And having passed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret,
UYesu na vavulanisivua vaake vakalovoka ilisumbe ilya Galilaya, vakafika mu iisi ija Genesaleti.
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,
Avaanhu ava pala ye vakagwila kuuti ghwe Yesu, vakatwala imhola imbale sooni. Pepano avaanhu vakavatwala avatamu vooni kwa Yesu,
36 and were calling on him that they might only touch the fringe of his garment, and as many as did touch were saved.
Vakansuuma avitikisie avatamu vabasie lu luvilo lwa mwenda ghwake. Avatamu vooni vano vakabasyagha, vakasokagha.
