< Marko 6 >
1 Le esia megbe la, Yesu kple eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo dzo le nuto ma me yi Nazaret si nye ededu me.
And he went forth thence, and came to his own country, and his disciples do follow him,
2 Le Dzudzɔgbe ŋkeke dzi la, eyi ƒuƒoƒe la ɖafia nu, eye ame geɖe siwo se eƒe nufiafia la ƒe nu ku. Wobia be, “Afi ka ame sia xɔ nu siawo tsoe? Nunya ka tɔgbi wonae be wòte ŋu le nukunu siawo wɔm!
and sabbath having come, he began in the synagogue to teach, and many hearing were astonished, saying, 'Whence hath this one these things? and what the wisdom that was given to him, that also such mighty works through his hands are done?
3 Alo menye ame siae nye atikpala la oa? Menye Maria ƒe viŋutsu si nɔviwoe nye Yakobo, Yosef, Yuda kple Simɔn, siwo le mía dome, eye nɔvia nyɔnuwo hã le mía dome oa?” Esia na eƒe nu ve dɔme na wo ŋutɔ.
Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, and brother of James, and Joses, and Judas, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us?' — and they were being stumbled at him.
4 Yesu gblɔ na wo be, “Bubu menɔa nyagblɔɖila aɖeke ŋu le eya ŋutɔ ƒe dedu me, amewo dome kple eya ŋutɔ ƒe aƒe me o.”
And Jesus said to them — 'A prophet is not without honour, except in his own country, and among his kindred, and in his own house;'
5 Le ameawo ƒe dzimaxɔse ta la, mete ŋu wɔ nukunu gãwo le wo dome o, asi ko wòda ɖe dɔléla ʋɛ aɖewo dzi heyɔ dɔ wo.
and he was not able there any mighty work to do, except on a few infirm people having put hands he did heal [them];
6 Ewɔ nuku na Yesu ŋutɔ be wo detɔwo mexɔ edzi se o, ale wòdzo ɖatsa le kɔƒewo me nɔ nu fiam amewo.
and he wondered because of their unbelief. And he was going round the villages, in a circle, teaching,
7 Yesu yɔ eƒe nusrɔ̃la wuieveawo, eye wòdɔ wo eveve hena ŋusẽ wo be woanya gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo do goe le amewo me.
and he doth call near the twelve, and he began to send them forth two by two, and he was giving them power over the unclean spirits,
8 Egblɔ na wo be, “Migatsɔ naneke ɖe asi hena mɔzɔzɔ o, negbe atizɔti ko. Migatsɔ nuɖuɖu, mɔzɔkotoku alo ga hã ɖe asi o.
and he commanded them that they may take nothing for the way, except a staff only — no scrip, no bread, no brass in the girdle,
9 Migatsɔ afɔkpa eve alo awu eve teti hã o.
but having been shod with sandals, and ye may not put on two coats.
10 Midze aƒe ɖeka ko me le kɔƒe ɖe sia ɖe me; miganɔ tsatsam tso aƒe me yi aƒe me o.
And he said to them, 'Whenever ye may enter into a house, there remain till ye may depart thence,
11 Nenye be kɔƒe aɖe me tɔwo mexɔ mi alo ɖo to mi o la, miʋuʋu ke si lé ɖe afɔƒome na mi la ɖi, eye miadzo. Esia nye ɖase be miegblẽ teƒe la ɖi be nu sia nu si adzɔ ɖe edzi la nadzɔ faa.”
and as many as may not receive you, nor hear you, going out thence, shake off the dust that is under your feet for a testimony to them; verily I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom or Gomorrah in a day of judgment than for that city.'
12 Nusrɔ̃lawo dze mɔ henɔ nu xlɔ̃m ame sia ame si wodo goe le mɔa dzi la be wòatrɔ dzime.
And having gone forth they were preaching that [men] might reform,
13 Wonya gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo le amewo me, eye wosi ami na dɔnɔwo heda gbe le wo ŋu.
and many demons they were casting out, and they were anointing with oil many infirm, and they were healing [them].
14 Fia Herod se Yesu ŋkɔ, elabena ame sia ame nɔ nu ƒom tso nukunu siwo katã wɔm wònɔ la ŋu. Fia la bu be Yohanes Mawutsidetanamelae gagbɔ agbe, elabena amewo le gbɔgblɔm be, “Yohanes Mawutsidetanamelae fɔ, eya ta wòte ŋu le nukunu siawo wɔm ɖo.”
And the king Herod heard, (for his name became public, ) and he said — 'John the Baptist out of the dead was raised, and because of this the mighty powers are working in him.'
15 Ame aɖewo hã bu be Yesue nye Eliya, Mawu ƒe Nyagblɔɖila xoxoawo dometɔ ɖeka, si gava dzɔ, eye ɖewo hã bu be Yesue nye Mawu ƒe Gbeƒãɖela yeye si si ŋusẽ le abe esiwo nɔ anyi va yi la ene.
Others said — 'It is Elijah,' and others said — 'It is a prophet, or as one of the prophets.'
16 Ke Herod ya gblɔ kple kakaɖedzi be, “Yohanes, ame si nu metso ta le la kokokoe fɔ tso yɔ me.”
And Herod having heard, said — 'He whom I did behead — John — this is he; he was raised out of the dead.'
17 Herod sia nye ame si dɔ asrafowo be woalé Yohanes de gaxɔ me. Ewɔ esia le Herod, nɔvia Filipo srɔ̃ si wòxɔ la ta,
For Herod himself, having sent forth, did lay hold on John, and bound him in the prison, because of Herodias the wife of Philip his brother, because he married her,
18 elabena Yohanes gblɔ na Herod be, “Se meɖe mɔ be nàxɔ nɔviwò srɔ̃ aɖe o.”
for John said to Herod — 'It is not lawful to thee to have the wife of thy brother;'
19 Le esia ta Herod di vevie be woawu Yohanes, gake fia la meda asi ɖe ɖoɖo sia dzi o,
and Herodias was having a quarrel with him, and was willing to kill him, and was not able,
20 elabena Herod tsɔ bubu geɖe na Yohanes le eƒe ame ɖɔʋu kple ame kɔkɔenyenye ta, eya ta etsɔe de eya ŋutɔ ƒe dzikpɔkpɔ te. Nenye be Herod kple Yohanes wole dze ɖom la, nya siwo Yohanes gblɔna la ɖea fu na Herod ƒe susu ŋutɔ, gake zi geɖe la, edina kokoko be yeaɖo dze kplii.
for Herod was fearing John, knowing him a man righteous and holy, and was keeping watch over him, and having heard him, was doing many things, and hearing him gladly.
21 Mlɔeba la, Herod va kpɔ mɔnu aɖe si dzi wòato awu Yohanes. Herod ƒe dzigbezã ɖo, eye wòɖo kplɔ̃ na eƒe kpeɖeŋutɔwo, ame siwo nye asrafowo ƒe amegãwo kple ame ŋkuta, siwo tso Galilea la le fiasã la me.
And a seasonable day having come, when Herod on his birthday was making a supper to his great men, and to the chiefs of thousands, and to the first men of Galilee,
22 Eva dzɔ be Herod ƒe vinyɔnu va ɖu ɣe na ame kpekpeawo. Eƒe ɣeɖuɖu do dzidzɔ na ame sia ame ŋutɔ. Le esia ta fia la gblɔ na nyɔnuvi la be, “Bia nu sia nu si nèdi tso asinye la, mana wò.”
and the daughter of that Herodias having come in, and having danced, and having pleased Herod and those reclining (at meat) with him, the king said to the damsel, 'Ask of me whatever thou wilt, and I will give to thee,'
23 Eka atam nɛ be, “Nu sia nu si nàbia la, matsɔe na wò; nenye nye fiaɖuƒe la ƒe afã nèbia hã la, mana wò.”
and he sware to her — 'Whatever thou mayest ask me, I will give to thee — unto the half of my kingdom.'
24 Nyɔnuvi la yi dadaa gbɔ ɖagblɔ nya la nɛ. Dadaa gblɔ nɛ be, “Yi nàbia Yohanes Mawutsidetanamela ƒe ta.”
And she, having gone forth, said to her mother, 'What shall I ask for myself?' and she said, 'The head of John the Baptist;'
25 Nyɔnuvi la gaɖe abla va fia la gbɔ va gblɔ nɛ be, “Mele Yohanes Mawutsidetanamela ƒe ta dim fifi laa, nenɔ agba me woatsɔ vɛ nam.”
and having come in immediately with haste unto the king, she asked, saying, 'I will that thou mayest give me presently, upon a plate, the head of John the Baptist.'
26 Nya sia ve fia la ŋutɔ, gake anye ŋukpe be wòada le atam si wòka la dzi le eƒe ame kpekpeawo ŋkume,
And the king — made very sorrowful — because of the oaths and of those reclining (at meat) with him, would not put her away,
27 eya ta eɖo asrafo si le eŋu dzɔm la ɖa be wòayi aɖatso ta le Yohanes nu atsɔ vɛ na ye. Asrafo la yi ɖatso ta le Yohanes nu le gaxɔ la me
and immediately the king having sent a guardsman, did command his head to be brought,
28 hetsɔ de agba me vɛ na nyɔnuvi la, eye wòtsɔe yi na dadaa.
and he having gone, beheaded him in the prison, and brought his head upon a plate, and did give it to the damsel, and the damsel did give it to her mother;
29 Esi Yohanes ƒe nusrɔ̃lawo se nu si dzɔ la, woyi ɖaxɔ eƒe kukua ɖaɖi.
and having heard, his disciples came and took up his corpse, and laid it in the tomb.
30 Yesu ƒe nusrɔ̃lawo trɔ tso woƒe mɔzɔzɔ la gbɔ, eye wogblɔ nu siwo katã wowɔ, nya siwo katã wogblɔ kple teƒe siwo katã wode la nɛ.
And the apostles are gathered together unto Jesus, and they told him all, and how many things they did, and how many things they taught,
31 Yesu se nya siawo keŋ, eye wòɖo aɖaŋu na wo be, “Mina míadzo le amehawo dome vie aɖadi teƒe aɖe anɔ adzudzɔ sẽe.” Elabena ame geɖewo ŋutɔ nɔ wo gbɔ vam henɔ dzodzom, ale be ɣeyiɣi meli woaɖu nu o.
and he said to them, 'Come ye yourselves apart to a desert place, and rest a little,' for those coming and those going were many, and not even to eat had they opportunity,
32 Ale wodzo le teƒe sia kple ʋu heyi teƒe aɖe si zi ɖoɖoe wu,
and they went away to a desert place, in the boat, by themselves.
33 gake ame geɖewo gakpɔ wo xoxo, wonya afi si yim wonɔ, eya ta woƒu du dze ŋgɔ na wo, zɔ ƒua nu yi ɖakpe wo esi woɖi le ʋu la me teti ko.
And the multitudes saw them going away, and many recognised him, and by land from all the cities they ran thither, and went before them, and came together to him,
34 Abe ale si wònɔna ɖaa ene la, ameha gã aɖe gava kpe Yesu le afi sia. Ameawo ƒe nu wɔ nublanui nɛ ŋutɔ, elabena wole abe alẽha si kplɔla meli na o la ene. Efia nu geɖe siwo wòle be woanya la wo.
and having come forth, Jesus saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion on them, that they were as sheep not having a shepherd, and he began to teach many things.
35 Le ɣetrɔ me la, eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo va gblɔ nɛ be, “Teƒe sia tso abo, evɔ zã hã le dodom,
And now the hour being advanced, his disciples having come near to him, say, — 'The place is desolate, and the hour is now advanced,
36 eya ta gblɔ na ameawo be woayi kɔƒe kple agble siwo te ɖe afi sia ŋu la me aɖadi nuɖuɖu na wo ɖokuiwo.”
let them away, that, having gone away to the surrounding fields and villages, they may buy to themselves loaves, for what they may eat they have not.'
37 Gake Yesu gblɔ na wo be, “Miawo mina nuɖuɖu wo.” Nusrɔ̃lawo biae be, “Nu ka míana wo? Hafi woate ŋu ana nuɖuɖu ameha sia la, ehiã ga home gã aɖe.”
And he answering said to them, 'Give ye them to eat,' and they say to him, 'Having gone away, may we buy two hundred denaries' worth of loaves, and give to them to eat?'
38 Yesu bia wo be, “Nuɖuɖu agbɔsɔsɔ ka sinue le mia si? Miyi miakpɔe ɖa.” Woyi gbɔ va gblɔ nɛ be, “Abolo atɔ̃ kple tɔmelã meme eve koe li.”
And he saith to them, 'How many loaves have ye? go and see;' and having known, they say, 'Five, and two fishes.'
39 Yesu gblɔ na wo be woana ameawo nanɔ anyi ɖe ƒuƒoƒowo me le gbe dama la dzi.
And he commanded them to make all recline in companies upon the green grass,
40 Ale ameawo nɔ anyi ɖe hatsotso alafawo kple blaatɔ̃wo me.
and they sat down in squares, by hundreds, and by fifties.
41 Azɔ Yesu tsɔ abolo atɔ̃ la kple tɔmelã meme eve la, eye wòwu mo dzi, heda akpe ɖe wo ta. Eŋe aboloawo me, eye wòtsɔ wo kple tɔmelãwo na nusrɔ̃la ɖe sia ɖe be wòaɖo ameawo ƒe akɔme.
And having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to the heaven, he blessed, and brake the loaves, and was giving to his disciples, that they may set before them, and the two fishes divided he to all,
42 Ameawo ɖu nu la ale gbegbe be woɖi ƒo wu ale si hiã,
and they did all eat, and were filled,
43 eye esi nusrɔ̃lawo ƒo ƒu abolo kple tɔmelã kakɛ siwo susɔ la, woyɔ kusi wuieve.
and they took up of broken pieces twelve hand-baskets full, and of the fishes,
44 Ke ŋutsu siwo ɖu nua la ƒe xexlẽme anɔ akpe atɔ̃.
and those eating of the loaves were about five thousand men.
45 Le nuɖuɖu la nana ameawo vɔ megbe teti ko la, Yesu gblɔ na eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo be woage ɖe ʋu la me, akui atso ƒu la ayi Betsaida afi si yeava tu wo le emegbe. Ebe ye ŋutɔ yeado megbe ado mɔ ameha la woayi aƒe me.
And immediately he constrained his disciples to go into the boat, and to go before to the other side, unto Bethsaida, till he may let the multitude away,
46 Le esia megbe la, Yesu yi togbɛ aɖe dzi be yeado gbe ɖa.
and having taken leave of them, he went away to the mountain to pray.
47 Le zã me esi tɔdziʋua ɖo ƒu la ƒe titina la, eya ɖeka susɔ ɖe gota.
And evening having come, the boat was in the midst of the sea, and he alone upon the land;
48 Yesu ɖeka nɔ godzi kpɔ wo ɖa. Ekpɔ be ya sesẽ si nɔ ƒoƒom la nɔ fu ɖem na wo ale gbegbe be ʋua kuku sesẽ na wo ŋutɔ. Anɔ abe fɔŋli ga etɔ̃ me ene la, Yesu zɔ ƒu la dzi ɖo ta wo gbɔ. Ewɔ abe ɖe wòbe yeazɔ to wo ŋu ene,
and he saw them harassed in the rowing, for the wind was against them, and about the fourth watch of the night he doth come to them walking on the sea, and wished to pass by them.
49 gake wo katã wokpɔe wònɔ zɔzɔm le ƒu la dzi, eya ta wodo vɔvɔ̃ɣli, elabena wobu be ŋɔlie.
And they having seen him walking on the sea, thought [it] to be an apparition, and cried out,
50 Gake eƒo nu gblɔ na wo enumake be, “Miaƒe dzi nedze eme. Nyee, migavɔ̃ o.”
for they all saw him, and were troubled, and immediately he spake with them, and saith to them, 'Take courage, I am [he], be not afraid.'
51 Azɔ ege ɖe ʋu la me, eye yaƒoƒo la tɔ. Nusrɔ̃lawo katã ƒe nu ku ŋutɔ,
And he went up unto them to the boat, and the wind lulled, and greatly out of measure were they amazed in themselves, and were wondering,
52 elabena va se ɖe fifia la, womese Yesu ƒe wɔnawo gɔme o. Gawu la, womese nukunu gã si wòwɔ le ɣetrɔ ma hã gɔme o, elabena woƒe dzi me sẽ.
for they understood not concerning the loaves, for their heart hath been hard.
53 Wotso ƒu la va ɖi go ɖe Genesaretnyigba dzi, eye wotɔ ʋu la.
And having passed over, they came upon the land of Gennesaret, and drew to the shore,
54 Ke esi wodo go le eme la, ame siwo nɔ afi ma la kpɔ Yesu dze sii enumake,
and they having come forth out of the boat, immediately having recognised him,
55 eya ta woƒu du ɖagblɔe na ame siwo katã le nuto la me be Yesu va ɖo. Ale amewo kɔ dɔnɔwo ɖe abawo dzi va egbɔ.
having run about through all that region round about, they began upon the couches to carry about those ill, where they were hearing that he is,
56 Afi sia afi si Yesu yi le kɔƒewo, duwo kple agbletawo la, wokɔa dɔnɔwo vaa asiwo kple mɔwo toe, eye woɖea kuku nɛ be woaka asi eƒe awu pɛ ko ŋu. Le nyateƒe me la, ame siwo katã ka asi eŋu ko la ƒe lãme sẽna.
and wherever he was going, to villages, or cities, or fields, in the market-places they were laying the infirm, and were calling upon him, that they may touch if it were but the fringe of his garment, and as many as were touching him were saved.
