Luqaassa 8
1 Hessafe guye Yesussay Xoossa kawotetha mishrachcho sabbakishe dumma dumma katamata giddorane dere gaathara aadhdhidees. Aadhdhidi biza wode iza kaalliza tammanne nam77ati izara deetes.
Soon after that, Jesus went, along with his twelve [disciples], through various cities and villages. As they went, he was telling people the good message about how God wants (to have complete control/to rule) [MET] [over their lives].
2 Qassekka tuna ayaanaappenne iita harggefe paxida issi issi maccashati izara deetes. Istika laappun tuna ayaanaany izippe kezida Magidele giza dereppe yida Maaramo,
Some women from whom he had expelled evil spirits and healed of diseases also [went with him]. These included Mary, the woman from Magdala [village], from whom [he had expelled] seven evil spirits;
3 kawo Herodosason oothiza kuza machcho Yohano qassekka Sosinonne hara daro maccashati deetes. Istika bees dizamiishshaara Yesussas oothizayta.
Joanna, the wife of Chuza, who was one of [King] Herod [Antipas’] officials; Susanna; and many others. They were providing some of their own funds [to help Jesus and his disciples].
4 Daro derey issife shiiqidi dishin qassekka asay dumma dumma katamappe izakko wodhiza wode Yesussay leemusora tamaarisishe hizgides
A large crowd of people came to Jesus from many towns. Then he told them this parable:
5 issi goshshanchay zerethi zeranas kezides, zerishinkka bagazi ogen wodhin asa toon yedhettides, salo kafotikka yiidi maxi mida,
“A man went out [to his field] to sow [some] seeds. As he was scattering them over the soil, some [of the seeds] fell on the path. Then [people] walked on those seeds, and birds ate them.
6 issi zerethay shuuchcha gadeni wodhidi heerakka caarides gadezzikka mela gade gidida gish elle meli kichchides.
Some [of the seeds] fell on rock [on which there was a thin layer of] moist [soil]. As soon as the seeds grew, the plants dried up because they had no moisture.
7 Qassekka hara zerethi aguntha giddon wodhides agunthaykka izara issife diccidi caarechchaykka dicconta mala cuullides.
Some [of the seeds] fell on [ground that contained roots of] thorny [weeds]. The thorny weeds grew [together] with the young plants, and [they] crowded out [those plants].
8 Qassekka hara zerethay lo7o aradda gadeni wodhides caaridda wodekka xeetu kushe ayfides. Yesussay haasa7a wursidi qaala dhoqqu histidi “siyiza haythi diza asi siyo” gides.
But some of the seeds fell on good soil and grew [well]. [Each seed later] produced 100 [grains].” Then Jesus called out to them, “If you want to understand [MTY] this, you must consider [carefully what I have just said]!”
9 Yesussa kaallizayti zeretha leemusozas birsheth imma giidi oychchin,
Jesus’ disciples [later] asked him about the meaning of the parable [he had just told].
10 izikka hizgiidi zarides Xoossa kawotetha xuura eroy intes imettides haratas gidikko leemusora yootays qassekka harati beyidi wozinan wothontamalanne siiyidi yuushi qopponta mala hannidees.
He said, “God is revealing to you what he did not reveal before, about [how he wants to] rule [MET] [over people’s lives]. But when I am telling other people about [these things, I tell them] only in parables. The result will be [like a prophet predicted long ago]: They will see [what I am doing], but will not perceive [what it means]. They will hear [what I am saying], but will not understand [it].
11 Zeretha leemusoykka hayssa, zeretha geettetidays Xoossa qaala,
So this is the meaning of that parable: The seeds [represent] God’s message.
12 oge lanqqen wodhidays qaala siyizayta giddo attin isti amanidi attontta mala xalla7ey yiidi qaala ista wozinappe eekkigidizayta.
[Some people are like] the path on which some of [the seeds fell]. When these people hear God’s message, the devil comes and causes them to forget what they have heard. As a result, they do not believe it, and will not be saved {[God] will not save them}.
13 Shuuchcha bolla wodhidaytikka qaala siiyidi ufaysara ekkizayta, istikka ha7is amanetes attin metoy ista bolla gakkiza wode xapho yedonta gish ellera amano kaddizayta.
[Some people are like] the [soil with] rock [underneath]. When they hear [God’s] message, they accept it joyfully. [But because it does not penetrate deeply] [MET] [into their inner beings], they believe it for [only] a [short] time. [They are like the plants that] did not have [deep] roots. When difficult things happen to them, they stop believing [God’s message].
14 Aguntha giddon wodhidayti qaala siiyizayta, heytikka aqqipey7iddi biitta bolla duussas qofaninne duretethan duusa lo7otethan culetidi lo7ethi ayfe imetena.
[Some people are like] the [soil that had roots of] thorny [weeds] in it. They are people who accept [God’s message], but later on they worry about things, and try to become rich, and enjoy [things that give them] a lot of pleasure. So they do not become [spiritually] mature.
15 Aradda biittan wodhidays qaala suureninne lo7o wozinan siiyidi naaggizaytane danda7an minnidi ayfe ayfizzaytta.
But [some people are like] the good soil. They hear [God’s] message and accept it. They [become] good, honest people, and they continue doing things [that please God] [MET].”
16 Poo7o po7isidi baatha giddon woykko arssa garssan wothiza asi baawa, gido attin keethe geliza asas poo7ana mala qoncceson wothetees.
“After people light a lamp, they do not cover it with a basket or put it under a bed. Instead, they put it on a lampstand, so that those who enter [their house] can see [things from] its light [MET]. [Similarly, you must tell God’s truth to others so that they can know what I can do for them].
17 Qotettidi qoncce kezontay poo7o kezidi eretonta qotan attanna miishshi deenna.
[God wants to] make clear all [of his truth] that was not evident previously. [He intends] that all of [the truth] that [he] had not revealed before be told openly {that [his people] openly tell [others] all [of the truth] that [he] has not revealed before}.
18 Hessa gish inte siiyizaysa naageti siiyite, diza uras gujjistana baynddadees wursofe izas diza milatizarakka ekettakkichchanna.
So listen carefully [to what I tell you], because [God] will enable those who accept [my truth] to [understand even] more. But [God] will cause those who do not accept [my truth] to not understand even [the little] that they think they have [understood].”
19 Hessafe guye Yesussa aayanne ishati Yesussakko yida. Shin asa darotethafe denddidaysani izako shiiqqanas dandd7ibbeyitenna.
[One day Jesus’] mother and his [younger] brothers came to see him, but they could not get near him because there was a large crowd [around him in the house].
20 He wode asay Yesussas ne aayanne ne ishati nena beyanas koyidi karen eqqida giidi yoottidees.
Someone told him, “Your mother and your [younger] brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.”
21 Yesussaykka zaaridi ta aayanne ta ishati Xoossa qaala siiyidi naagizayta gides.
He replied, “Those who hear God’s message and obey it are [as dear to me] [MET] as my mother and my brothers.”
22 Issi gallas Yesussay bena kaallizaytara wogolo giiddo gelidi abbafe he pinith pinnos gides.
One day Jesus got into a boat with his disciples. He said to them, “Let’s go [around to] the other side of the lake.” So they started to go.
23 Istika pinishin abba bolla gote carkkoy dendidi waayssiza wode Yesussay dhiskkides. Haathayka wogoloza giddo gelin asay daro metotettides.
As they were sailing, he fell asleep. A big windstorm struck the lake. Soon the boat was filling with water, and they were in danger.
24 Yesussa kaallizayti izakko shiiqqidi “Godo, Godo nu wurana hanos” giidi Yesussa dhiskofe denthida. Izikka beeggiddi carkozane abba danbbala seerin carkoyne abba danbbalay coo77u gides.
Jesus’ disciples woke him up. They said [to him], “Master! Master! We [(inc)] are going to drown!” He got up and rebuked the wind and told the waves to be calm. The wind [immediately] stopped blowing and the waves calmed down. [The lake] became calm.
25 Izika bena kaallizayta inte amanoy awa bidde gides. Istika ba garssan babishshenne malaletishe carkonne haathenne azazizay, isttikka izas azazettizay izi oonee gida.
He said to them, “(I [am disappointed that] you did not trust me [to help you]!/Why did you not trust me [to help you]?)” [RHQ] They were afraid. They were also amazed. They said to each other, “(What kind of man is this?/This man is not like ordinary men!) [RHQ] He [not only commands people, but] when he commands the wind and the water, they also obey him!”
26 Izappe guye Galilape he pinithan diza Gergesenonne giza dere wogolora pinida.
Jesus and his disciples arrived at the region near Gerasa, a [town] which [was on the eastern] side of Lake [Galilee].
27 Yesussay wogolozappe gadeni wodhida wode dayiddanthi iza bolla diza issi asi katamappe kezidi iza demmides, he uray daro wode mayo mayonta kallo keeththan aqontta duufo bees aqoso oothida asa.
[There was] a man [in that region] in whom demons lived. [He was] from the town [of Gerasa]. (OR, [In that area there was] a man [from that town] whom demons controlled.) For a long time he had not worn clothes. He did not live in a house. Instead, he lived in burial caves.
28 Yesussa beydda wode wassishe Yesussa sinthan kunddides, qaala dhoqqu histidi “boncho Xoossa na Yesussa taasnne nees ay gaytotethi dizee? Ne tana waaysonta mala nena woosays” gides.
Many times [demons] attacked him. He was guarded {[People] tried to guard him} [so that he would not injure others]. Chains were fastened {They fastened chains} on his hands and shackles on his feet, but he would break the chains and shackles. Then he would be sent away by the demons {the demons would send him away} to some desolate area. When Jesus stepped out of the boat onto the shore, the man saw him. He [ran to Jesus] and prostrated himself before him. Then Jesus commanded, “You evil spirit, come out of that man!” But it [did not leave immediately. Instead, it] caused the man to shout very loudly, “Jesus, Son of the great God in heaven, since we [(inc)] have nothing in common, [leave me alone] [RHQ]! I beg you, do not torture me [now]!”
29 Tuna ayaanaay hessa gaanas danda7iday addezappe kezana mala Yesussay azazida gishassa. Tuna ayaanaanazikka woden woden denddiza gish addezzi sanithalataninne birattan toho qachi naaginkka qachettida sanithalata duuthethidi iza bolla diza dayiiddanthay iza duge bazo zaari efees.
30 Yesussay ne sunthi oonee giidi oychchides, izikka daro dayiiddanthati iza bolla gelidi diza gish ta sunthi “leegoone” gides.
[In order to expel the demon more easily], Jesus asked [the demon], “What is your [(sg)] name?” He replied, “My name is Crowd/Mob.” [He said that] because many demons had entered that man.
31 Dayiiddanthatika wursethi baayndda cima oilan bena yegonta mala minnthidi woossida. (Abyssos g12)
[The demons] kept begging [Jesus] that he would not command them to go into the deep place [where God punishes demons]. (Abyssos g12)
32 Henka zuma bolla daro gudunthi heemetes, dayiiddanthatakka gudduntha wudezan gelite giidi azazana mala woossida, Yesussaykka ero gides.
There was a large herd of pigs (grazing/rooting for food) on the hillside. The demons begged Jesus that he allow them to enter the pigs. So he did.
33 Dayiiddanthatika addezappe kezidi guddunthatan gelida, guddunthatikka aafozza dugunthara bichcharishshe biiddi abban gelidi abban mitettida.
The demons left the man and entered the pigs. Then the herd [of pigs] rushed down the steep bank into the lake and drowned.
34 Heemizayti handdaysa beydda wode beezhumi biiddi katama asasne dere asas yoottida.
When the men who were taking care of the pigs saw what happened, they ran! They told people inside the town and outside the town what had happened.
35 Handdayssa beyana giidi asay ba dizasooppe Yesussakko yides, dayiiddanthay izappe kezida addezzika wozinay kanay simmini afala mayidi Yesussa toho garsan utidaysa beyidi babida.
So people went out to see what had happened. When they came to where Jesus was, they saw that the man from whom Jesus had [expelled] the demons was sitting at the feet of Jesus, [listening to him]. He had clothes on, and his mind was normal again. Then those people became afraid [because they thought that Jesus would destroy more of their property] (OR, [because they realized that he must be very powerful]).
36 Dayiiddanthan oyketida addezzi paxishin beyddayti izi waani paxidakkonne derezas yootida.
The people who had seen what happened told those [who had just arrived] how [Jesus] had healed the man whom demons were controlling [before].
37 Gergesenonne matan diza asay keehi babbda gish Yesussa hayssafe kichch giidi woossida, izikka wogolozan gelidi simmi bides.
Then [those people and] many other people [HYP] from the area near Gerasa asked Jesus to leave their area. They were very afraid of [what else Jesus would do to them]. So [Jesus and the disciples] got into the boat to go back across the lake.
38 Dayiiddanthay izappe kezida addezzi Yesussara issife daanna mala woossides,
The man from whom he had [expelled] the demons begged him saying, “[Please], let me go with you!” But [Jesus refused. Instead], he said to him,
39 Gido attin ne so simadda Xoossi nees oothida gita miish yoota giidi moyzides. Addezzikka Yesussay izas oothida gita miish ba kataman diza asas wursos qonccen yootishe biddees. Ya7irosa naanne Yesussa mayo bochchidda maccassa
“[No], go home and tell people how much God has done for you!” Then he sent him away. So the man went away and told people throughout the nearby town how much Jesus had done for him.
40 Assay wuri Yesussa yuusa naagishe gam77ida gish izi simmishni ufaysan mokki ekkida.
When [Jesus and the disciples] returned [to Capernaum], a crowd of people who had been waiting for him welcomed him.
41 He wode Iya7irossa geetettiza mukurabe halaqqay yiidi Yesussa toho bolla kundidi Yesussa iza so baanna mala woossides.
Just then a man named Jairus, who was one of the leaders (of the synagogue/of the Jewish meeting place) [there], came near and prostrated himself at Jesus’ feet. He pleaded with Jesus, “Please come to my house [and heal my daughter],
42 Izi hessaththo oychchiday izas tammanne nam77u laytha kumida issi macca nay sakistada shemppo bolla diza gish. Izi he buussan dishin derey daridi ba garsan sugetidi iza keehi un7isides.
my only daughter, who is about twelve years old, because she is dying!” As Jesus went with him, many people crowded close to Jesus.
43 Tammanne nam77u laythi suuthi izippe gukishin diza issi maccashiya bees diza miishsha ubbaa dhale eriza asatas imma wursini izo pathanaas danda7ida uraykka isoykka baa.
Then a woman came near. She had been suffering from constant [vaginal] [EUP] bleeding for twelve years, but she could not be healed by anyone {no one could heal her}.
44 Izakka guyyera shiiqqada Yesussa afala maccarata bochchadus, gukkiza
She came behind [Jesus] and touched the edge of his robe [in order to be healed]. At once her bleeding stopped.
45 Yesussaykka “tana bochchidday oone?” gides. Wurika nuni bochchibeykko gi kadida wode phixrossay zaaridi Godo asi wuri yuuyi aadhdhidi nena suggerethidi un7ises gides.
Jesus said, “Who touched me?” When everyone said that they had not touched him, Peter said, “Lord, there is a large crowd of people around you [(sg)] and crowding against you, [so any one of them might have touched you]!”
46 Gido attin Yesussay asi tana bochchides, wolqay tappe kezidaysa ta erays gides.
But Jesus said, “[I know that] someone [deliberately] touched me, [because] my power has healed someone [who touched me].”
47 Maccashiya eretonta qotistada baannaas danda7ontaysa erida wode kokorashe yaada Yesussa sinthan kunddadus. Izakka Yesussa waana bochchidakkonne qassekka ellera waana paxidakko wurso asa sinthan yootadus.
When the woman realized that she could not prevent [Jesus] (OR, [people]) from knowing that [she was healed], her body began to shake. [She was afraid that because she had disobeyed the law that a woman with such a condition should not touch others, Jesus might scold her for doing that]. She prostrated herself before Jesus. As the other people were listening, she told why she had touched him and how she had been healed immediately.
48 Izikka ta nayee ne amanoy nena pathides, saron ba gides.
[Jesus] said to her, “(Ma’am/My dear woman), because you believed [PRS] [that I could heal you, I] have healed you. Go [from here, and may you experience God’s] peace [within you].”
49 Yesussay buro maccasheys haasa7a bolla dishin mukurabe halaqqa Iya7irosa keethafe issi asi Iya7irosas ne naya hayqqadus hessa gish hayssappe guye astamaareza mela daabursofa gides.
While he was still talking [to her], a man from Jairus’ house came and said to Jairus, “Your daughter has died. So (it is useless that you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]!/why do you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]?) [RHQ]”
50 Yesussay hessa siiyidi Iya7irosa aykkoy ba baboofa amanna attin ne naya paxana gides.
But when Jesus heard that, he said to Jairus, “Do not think that there is nothing more that can be done. Just believe that [I can help her. If you(sg) do that], she will live again.”
51 Yesussay Iya7irosa keeth geliza wode Phexirosa, Yanisane Yaqobe qassekka nay aawappenne aayeyippe attin haray oonikka izara gelana mala koybeyna.
When they arrived outside Jairus’ house, Jesus allowed only Peter, John, James, and the girl’s mother and father to go in Jairus’ house with him.
52 He wode asay wuri nayis wuwu gi wassi yekkishin Yesussay yeekofite iza zin77adus attin hayqqabeykku gides.
All the people [there] were crying and beating their chests [to show that they were sad]. But, [knowing that he would cause the girl to live again], he said to them, “Stop crying! She is not dead! She is [just] sleeping [MET]!”
53 Asaykka naya hayqqidaysa eriza gish Yesussa bolla miicides.
The people laughed at him, because they knew that [the girl] was dead.
54 Gido attin izi nay kushe oykkidi ta nayee denda gides.
But [Jesus] took hold of her hand and called to her, saying, “Child, get up!”
55 Nayis shempoyka simmides. Heerakka denda eqqadus, Yesussaykka izis miza miish immana mala azazides.
At once her spirit returned [to her body] and she got up. Jesus immediately said, “Give her something to eat!”
56 Nka yelidaytika malaletida. Gido attin izi handdayssa oonaaskka yotonta mala azaziddes.
Her parents were amazed, but Jesus told them not to tell anyone [else yet] what had happened.
