Marko 1
1 Yesu Kristo, si nye Mawu ƒe Vi la, ƒe nyanyui la ƒe gɔmedzedzee nye esi.
The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;
2 Abe ale si woŋlɔe ɖi le Nyagblɔɖila Yesaya ƒe agbalẽ me ene be, “Madɔ nye dɔla ɖe ŋgɔwò be wòadzra wò mɔ la ɖo,
As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.
3 ame si ƒe gbe le ɖiɖim le gbea dzi be, ‘Midzra Yehowa ƒe mɔ ɖo, miwɔ eƒe mɔtatawo woanɔ dzɔdzɔe nɛ.’”
The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
4 Yohanes Mawutsidetanamelae nye dɔla sia. Enɔ gbedzi, eye wònɔ mawunya gblɔm be amewo nede tsi ta; ne wòafia be wotrɔ dzi me, ale be wòatsɔ woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ake wo.
John was baptizing in the wilderness, and preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.
5 Ame geɖe ŋutɔ tso Yerusalem kple Yudea nutowo me yi gbea dzi be yewoakpɔ Yohanes, eye yewoase gbedeasi si wòtsɔ vɛ la. Esi ame siawo ʋu woƒe nu vɔ̃wo me nɛ vɔ la, ede mawutsi ta na wo le Yɔdan tɔsisi la me.
And there went out to him all the land of Judaea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
6 Wotɔ awu si Yohanes do la kple kposɔfu, eye wòtsɔ lãgbalẽlidziblaka bla awua dzii. Eƒe nuɖuɖu koe nye ʋetsuviwo kple gbemenyitsi.
And John was clothed with camel’s hair, and with a leather belt around his loins; and he ate locusts and wild honey;
7 Egblɔ na eƒe nyaselawo be, “Ame aɖe gbɔna kpuie, si de ŋgɔ wum sãa, nyemedze be mabɔbɔ atu eƒe atokotaŋuka gɔ̃ hã o.
And preached, saying, There cometh after me one mightier than I, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and loose.
8 Nye la, tsi ko metsɔ de mawutsi ta na mi, gake eya adee na mi kple Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe la!”
I indeed have baptized you in water: but he shall baptize you in the Holy Spirit.
9 Ɣe ma ɣi la, Yesu tso Nazaret le Galilea va Yohanes gbɔ, eye Yohanes de mawutsi ta nɛ le Yɔdan tɔsisi la me.
And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth to Galilee, and was baptized by John in Jordan.
10 Esi Yesu nɔ dodom tso tsia me la, ekpɔ be dziƒowo nu ʋu, eye Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe si nɔ akpakpa ƒe nɔnɔme me la nɔ ɖiɖim ɖe edzi.
And immediately coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:
11 Gbe aɖe hã ɖi tso dziƒo be, “Wòe nye vinye si gbɔ nyemelɔ̃a nu le o, wò me mekpɔa ŋudzedze le.”
And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
12 Enumake Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe la do dui wòyi gbedzi.
And immediately the Spirit driveth him into the wilderness.
13 Enɔ gbea dzi ŋkeke blaene, eye Satan va tee kpɔ. Enɔ lã wɔadãwo dome, eye mawudɔlawo va do ŋusẽe to subɔsubɔ me.
And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered to him.
14 Esi Fia Herod lé Yohanes de gaxɔ me vɔ megbe la, Yesu yi Galilea be yeagblɔ Mawu ƒe nyanyui la.
Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
15 Eɖe gbeƒã be, “Ɣeyiɣi la de azɔ! mawufiaɖuƒe la gogo! Mitrɔ dzi me ne mianɔ agbe ɖe nyanyui la ƒe ɖoɖowo nu.”
And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
16 Gbe ɖeka esi Yesu ɖi tsa to Galilea ƒuta va yina la, ekpɔ Simɔn kple nɔvia Andrea wonɔ asabu dam ɖe ƒua me, elabena ɖɔkplɔlawo wonye.
Now as he was walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishermen.
17 Yesu yɔ wo hegblɔ na wo be, “Miva dze yonyeme ne mawɔ mi miazu amewo ɖelawo.”
And Jesus said to them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.
18 Enumake wogblẽ woƒe asabu ɖi hedze eyome.
And immediately they forsook their nets, and followed him.
19 Esi wozɔ ƒuta la yina sẽe la, Yesu gakpɔ Zebedeo ƒe viŋutsuwo, Yakobo kple nɔvia Yohanes hã wonɔ ʋu me nɔ woƒe ɖɔwo sam.
And when he had gone a little further from there, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the boat mending their nets.
20 Eyɔ woawo hã be woadze ye yome, ale wogblẽ wo fofo Zebedeo kple ɖɔkplɔlawo ɖe ʋua me hedze Yesu yome enumake.
And immediately he called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.
21 Yesu kple ame siwo nɔ eŋu la va ɖo Kapernaum, eye woyi Yudatɔwo ƒe ƒuƒoƒe la le Dzudzɔgbe ŋkeke la dzi. Yesu fia nu amewo le afi ma.
And they went into Capernaum; and immediately on the sabbath he entered into the synagogue, and taught.
22 Ame siwo nɔ ƒuƒoƒea la ƒe mo wɔ yaa le Yesu ƒe nufiafia ŋuti, elabena efia nu wo kple kakaɖedzi blibo. Le nyateƒe me la, ale si wòfia nui la to vovo sãa tso ale si woƒe agbalẽfialawo fianɛ la gbɔ.
And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.
23 Ŋutsu aɖe si me gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ nɔ la hã nɔ ƒuƒoƒe la gbe ma gbe. Ame sia de asi ɣlidodo me be,
And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,
24 “Yesu Nazaretitɔ, nu ka ta nèle fu ɖem na mí ɖo? Ɖe nèva be yeatsrɔ̃ mía? Menya ame si nènye, wòe nye Mawu ƒe Vi Kɔkɔetɔ la.”
Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.
25 Yesu blu ɖe eta gblɔ be, “Zi ɖoɖoe, eye nàdo go le eme.”
And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.
26 Le Yesu ƒe gbeɖeɖea nu la, gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ la do ɣli sesĩe, tsɔ amea xlã ɖe anyi ŋɔdzitɔe, eye wòdo go le eme.
And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him.
27 Nuwɔna sia wɔ nuku na eteƒekpɔlawo ŋutɔ, eye woƒo nu le eŋu. Wobia wo nɔewo bena, nufiafia yeye kae nye esia? Etsɔ ŋusẽ dea se na gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo eye woɖoa toe.
And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine is this? for with authority he commandeth even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.
28 Nu si Yesu wɔ la na be eƒe ŋkɔ ɖi hoo le Galilea nutowo katã me le ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe megbe.
And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region surrounding Galilee.
29 Yesu kple eŋutimeawo do go le ƒuƒoƒe la, Yakobo kple Yohanes kpe ɖe wo ŋu eye woyi Simɔn kple Andrea ƒe aƒe me,
And immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30 Ŋudza lé Simɔn lɔ̃xo, eye wònɔ dɔba dzi hafi wode, ale wogblɔe na Yesu.
But the mother of Simon’s wife lay sick with a fever, and immediately they tell him of her.
31 Yesu yi dɔnɔ la ƒe aba gbɔ, elé eƒe alɔnu, eye wònɔ alinu. Dzoxɔxɔ sesẽ si nɔ nyɔnu la ƒe lãme la nu bɔbɔ enumake eye eƒe lãme sẽ. Ale wòtso yi ɖaɖa nu va ɖo wo kɔme.
And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered to them.
32 Esi ɣe nɔ to ɖom la, wokplɔ dɔléla vovovowo kple ame siwo me gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo le la va egbɔ le aƒe si me wònɔ la be wòada gbe le wo ŋu.
And at evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with demons.
33 Kapernaum du blibo la katã kloe va ƒo ƒu ɖe ʋɔtrua nu be yewoakpɔ nu.
And all the city was gathered together at the door.
34 Yesu da gbe le dɔléla geɖewo ŋu, eye wònya gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo do goe le ame aɖewo me fiẽ ma. Meɖe mɔ na gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃awo be woaƒo nu o, elabena wonya ame si wònye.
And he healed many that were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and permitted not the demons to speak, because they knew him.
35 Le fɔŋli la, Yesu ɖeka do go, eye wòɖe eɖokui ɖe aga be yeado gbe ɖa.
And in the morning, rising a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.
36 Le ɣeyiɣi aɖe megbe la, Simɔn kple ame bubuawo do go yi ɖadii.
And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.
37 Esi wokpɔe la, wogblɔ nɛ be, “Aƒetɔ, ameha la le diwòm.”
And when they had found him, they said to him, All men seek for thee.
38 Yesu ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Ele be míayi du bubuwo hã me be magblɔ nyanyui la na woawo hã, elabena esia ta meva ɖo.”
And he said to them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for this purpose have I come.
39 Ale wòzɔ mɔ tsa le Galilea nutowo katã me, henɔ mawunya gblɔm le woƒe ƒuƒoƒewo, eye wònɔ ga ɖem ame siwo gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo de gae la hã.
And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast out demons.
40 Gbe ɖeka la, anyidzela aɖe va dze klo ɖe Yesu ƒe akɔme, eye wòɖe kuku nɛ vevie be wòada gbe le ye ŋu. Egblɔ na Yesu be, “Ne èlɔ̃ la, na ŋutinye nakɔ.”
And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying to him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
41 Anyidzela la ƒe nu wɔ nublanui na Yesu ŋutɔ, eya ta wòka asi eŋu hegblɔ nɛ be, “Mèlɔ̃, ŋutiwò nekɔ.”
And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith to him, I will; be thou clean.
42 Enumake anyidzela la ƒe lãme sẽ.
And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.
43 Yesu dɔe enumake kple sedede vevi sia be,
And he strictly charged him, and immediately sent him away;
44 “Kpɔ egbɔ be mègblɔ nu sia na ame aɖeke o, ke boŋ yi nàtsɔ ɖokuiwò afia nunɔla la, eye nàna vɔsanu siwo Mose ɖo ɖi na ameŋukɔkɔ abe ɖaseɖiɖi na wo ene.”
And saith to him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go, show thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.
45 Gake esi ŋutsu la dzo yina la, eɖe gbeƒã eƒe lãmesẽkpɔkpɔ la na amewo le mɔa dzi. Le esia ta ameha gã aɖe nye zi ɖe Yesu dzi, ale be megate ŋu yi du aɖeke me o, ke boŋ etsi gbea dzi. Ke le afi sia hã la, amewo tso teƒeteƒewo va egbɔ.
But he went out, and began to proclaim it freely, and to blaze abroad the matter, so that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.
