Luka 8
1 Na rĩrĩ, thuutha wa ũguo, Jesũ agĩthiĩ matũũra-inĩ o na tũtũũra-inĩ akĩhunjagia Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa ũthamaki wa Ngai. Arutwo ake arĩa ikũmi na eerĩ maarĩ hamwe nake,
It happened soon afterwards, that he went about through cities and villages, proclaiming and bringing the good news of the Kingdom of God. With him were the twelve,
2 o na atumia amwe a arĩa maarutĩtwo ngoma thũku na arĩa maahonetio mĩrimũ: nao nĩ Mariamu (ũrĩa wetagwo Mũmagidali), nĩwe warutĩtwo ndaimono mũgwanja;
and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary who was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out;
3 na Joana mũtumia wa Husa, ũrĩa warĩ mũrori wa indo cia Herode; na Susana; na angĩ aingĩ. Atumia aya nĩmamũtungatagĩra na indo ciao ene.
and Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod's steward; Susanna; and many others; who provided for them from their possessions.
4 Andũ aingĩ nĩmathiire na mbere kũngana harĩ Jesũ moimĩte matũũra-inĩ, na rĩrĩa andũ maingĩhire mũno akĩmahe ũhoro na ngerekano, akĩmeera atĩrĩ,
When a large crowd came together, and people from every city were coming to him, he spoke by a parable.
5 Mũrĩmi nĩoimagarire akahure mbeũ ciake. Na rĩrĩa aahuraga mbeũ icio, imwe ikĩgũa mũkĩra-inĩ wa njĩra; ikĩrangĩrĩrio na magũrũ, nacio nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ igĩũka igĩcirĩa.
"The farmer went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some fell along the road, and it was trampled under foot, and the birds of the sky devoured it.
6 Ingĩ ikĩgũa rũnyanjara-inĩ, na rĩrĩa ciamerire, mĩmera ĩyo ĩkĩhooha tondũ wa kwaga ũigũ.
Other seed fell on the rock, and as soon as it grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture.
7 Nacio mbeũ ingĩ ikĩgũa mĩigua-inĩ, nayo mĩigua ĩgĩkũranĩra nacio na ĩgĩcithararia.
Other fell amid the thorns, and the thorns grew with it, and choked it.
8 Mbeũ ingĩ nacio ikĩgũa tĩĩri-inĩ mũnoru. Igĩkũra, igĩciara maita igana ma iria ciahaandĩtwo. Aarĩkia kuuga ũguo, akĩanĩrĩra, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩa ũrĩ na matũ ma kũigua, nĩaigue.”
Other fell into the good ground, and grew, and brought forth fruit one hundred times." As he said these things, he called out, "He who has ears to hear, let him hear."
9 Nao arutwo ake makĩmũũria ũrĩa ngerekano ĩyo yoigaga.
Then his disciples asked him, "What does this parable mean?"
10 Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ nĩmũheetwo ũmenyo wa kũmenya hitho cia ũthamaki wa Ngai, no arĩa angĩ ndĩmaaragĩria na ngerekano, nĩgeetha, “‘maarora, makaaga kuona; na maigua, makaaga gũtaũkĩrwo.’
He said, "To you it is given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of God, but to the rest in parables; that 'seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.'
11 “Ngerekano ĩyo yugĩte atĩrĩ: Mbeũ icio nĩ ũhoro wa Ngai.
Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
12 Mbeũ iria ciagũire mũkĩra-inĩ wa njĩra nĩ andũ arĩa maiguaga ũhoro wa Ngai, nake mũcukani agooka akeheria ũhoro ũcio ngoro-inĩ ciao, nĩguo matigetĩkie mahonoke.
Those along the road are those who hear, then the devil comes, and takes away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved.
13 Nacio iria ciagũire rũnyanjara-inĩ nĩ andũ arĩa maiguaga ũhoro wa Ngai, na makawamũkĩra na gĩkeno, no makaaga mĩri. Metĩkagia o gwa kahinda kanini, no magerio moka makaũtiganĩria.
Those on the rock are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; but these have no root, who believe for a while, then fall away in time of temptation.
14 Mbeũ iria ciagũire mĩigua-inĩ nĩ andũ arĩa maiguaga ũhoro, no o magĩthiiaga-rĩ, magatharario nĩ mĩhangʼo, na ũtonga, na mĩago, nao makaaga gũkũra.
That which fell among the thorns, these are those who have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to maturity.
15 No rĩrĩ, mbeũ iria ciagũire tĩĩri-inĩ ũrĩa mũnoru nĩ andũ arĩa maiguaga ũhoro marĩ na ngoro ya ma na njega, makaũtũũria, na nĩ ũndũ wa gũkirĩrĩria, magaciaraga maciaro.
That in the good ground, these are such as in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it tightly, and bring forth fruit with patience.
16 “Na rĩrĩ, gũtirĩ mũndũ ũgwatagia tawa akaũkunĩkĩria na irebe, kana akaũiga rungu rwa ũrĩrĩ. No aũigaga handũ igũrũ, nĩguo andũ arĩa megũtoonya nyũmba mathererwo nĩ ũtheri.
"No one, when he has lit a lamp, covers it with a container, or puts it under a bed; but puts it on a stand, that those who enter in may see the light.
17 Nĩgũkorwo gũtirĩ ũndũ mũhithe ũtakaguũrio, na gũtirĩ ũndũ ũrĩ hitho-inĩ ũtakamenyeka kana ũtakanĩkwo ũtheri-inĩ.
For nothing is hidden, that will not be revealed; nor anything secret, that will not be known and come to light.
18 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mwĩmenyagĩrĩrei ũrĩa mũthikagĩrĩria. Ũrĩa wothe ũrĩ na indo nĩakongererwo nyingĩ; na ũrĩa wothe ũtarĩ nĩagatuunywo o na kĩrĩa arĩ nakĩo.”
So consider carefully how you listen. For whoever has, to him will be given; and whoever does not have, from him will be taken away even that which he thinks he has."
19 Na rĩrĩ, nyina wa Jesũ na ariũ a nyina na Jesũ magĩũka kũmuona, no matingĩahotire gũthiĩ hakuhĩ nake nĩ ũndũ wa andũ kũingĩha.
His mother and brothers came to him, and they could not come near him for the crowd.
20 Mũndũ ũmwe akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Maitũguo na ariũ a maitũguo marũgamĩte nja makĩenda gũkuona.”
It was told him by some saying, "Your mother and your brothers stand outside, desiring to see you."
21 Nake akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Maitũ na ariũ a maitũ nĩ arĩa maiguaga ũhoro wa Ngai na makaũhingia.”
But he answered them, "My mother and my brothers are these who hear the word of God, and do it."
22 Mũthenya ũmwe Jesũ nĩerire arutwo ake atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũringei tũthiĩ mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ wa iria.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩtoonya gatarũ magĩthiĩ.
Now it happened on one of those days, that he entered into a boat, himself and his disciples, and he said to them, "Let us go over to the other side of the lake." So they launched out.
23 Na rĩrĩa maathiiaga Jesũ akĩhĩtwo nĩ toro. Na rĩrĩ, kũu iria-inĩ nĩ kwagĩire na kĩhuhũkanio kĩnene, nako gatarũ kau kaarĩ hakuhĩ kũũrĩra maaĩ-inĩ, na magĩkorwo marĩ ũgwati-inĩ mũnene.
But as they sailed, he fell asleep. A wind storm came down on the lake, and they were taking on dangerous amounts of water.
24 Nao arutwo magĩthiĩ makĩmũũkĩria, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ “Mwathani! Mwathani! Nĩtũkũũrĩra maaĩ-inĩ!” Nake Jesũ agĩũkĩra agĩkaania rũhuho na maaĩ macio maahũũranaga; namo makũmbĩ macio ma maaĩ makĩnyihanyiiha na gũkĩhoorera.
So they came to him, and awoke him, saying, "Master, master, we are dying." And he awoke, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water, and they ceased, and it was calm.
25 Akĩũria arutwo ake atĩrĩ, “Wĩtĩkio wanyu ũrĩ ha?” Nao makĩiyũrwo nĩ guoya na makĩgega, makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ mũndũ ũyũ arĩ ũ? Aathaga huho o na maaĩ, nacio ikamwathĩkĩra.”
He said to them, "Where is your faith?" But they were terrified and astonished, saying to one another, "Who is this, then, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?"
26 Makĩringa mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ wa iria, magĩkinya rũgongo rwa Agerasi rũrĩa rũngʼethanĩire na Galili.
They arrived at the country of the Gerasenes, which is opposite Galilee.
27 Jesũ aarĩkia kuuma gatarũ, aakinya thĩ agĩtũngwo nĩ mũndũ warĩ na ndaimono oimĩte itũũra-inĩ. Mũndũ ũcio nĩaikarĩte ihinda inene ategwĩkĩra nguo kana agatũũra nyũmba, no aatũũraga mbĩrĩra-inĩ.
And when he came out onto the land he was met by a certain man from the town who had demons. For a long time he had worn no clothes, and did not live in a house, but in the tombs.
28 Rĩrĩa mũndũ ũcio onire Jesũ, agĩkaya na akĩĩgũithia magũrũ-inĩ make, akĩanĩrĩra na mũgambo mũnene akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũrenda atĩa na niĩ, wee Jesũ, Mũrũ wa Ngai-Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno? Ndagũthaitha, ndũkaanyariire!”
When he saw Jesus, he shouted, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, "What do I have to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the Most High God? I beg you, do not torment me."
29 Nĩgũkorwo Jesũ nĩathĩte ngoma ĩyo thũku yume thĩinĩ wa mũndũ ũcio. Nĩyamũnyiitaga kaingĩ, na o na gũtuĩka nĩoohagwo moko na magũrũ na mĩnyororo, na akarangĩrwo-rĩ, nĩatuangaga mĩnyororo ĩyo yamuohaga, na ndaimono ĩyo ĩgatũma athiĩ kũndũ gũtarĩ andũ.
For Jesus was commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For the unclean spirit had often seized the man. He was kept under guard, and bound with chains and fetters. Breaking the bands apart, he was driven by the demon into the desert.
30 Jesũ akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Wĩtagwo atĩa?” Nake akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Legioni,” nĩgũkorwo aarĩ na ndaimono nyingĩ.
Jesus asked him, "What is your name?" He said, "Legion," for many demons had entered into him.
31 Nacio ndaimono igĩkĩrĩrĩria gũthaitha Jesũ ndagaciathe ithiĩ Irima-rĩrĩa-Rĩtarĩ-Gĩturi. (Abyssos g12)
They pleaded with him that he would not command them to go into the abyss. (Abyssos g12)
32 Na rĩrĩ, nĩ haarĩ na rũũru rũnene rwa ngũrwe rwarĩithagio harũrũka-inĩ cia kĩrĩma kĩarĩ hakuhĩ na hau. Ndaimono icio igĩthaitha Jesũ aciĩtĩkĩrie itoonye thĩinĩ wacio, nake agĩciĩtĩkĩria.
Now there was there a herd of many pigs feeding on the mountain, and they begged him that he would allow them to enter into those. He allowed them.
33 Ndaimono cioima thĩinĩ wa mũndũ ũcio, igĩthiĩ igĩtoonya ngũrwe, naruo rũũru rũu rũkĩharũrũka kĩhurũrũka kĩu na ihenya, rũkĩgũa iria-inĩ, rũkĩũrĩra kuo.
The demons came out from the man, and entered into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake, and were drowned.
34 Rĩrĩa andũ arĩa maarĩithagia ngũrwe icio moonire ũrĩa gwekĩka, makĩũra, magĩthiĩ kũheana ũhoro ũcio itũũra-inĩ na mĩgũnda-inĩ,
When those who fed them saw what had happened, they fled, and told it in the city and in the country.
35 nao andũ makiumagara makone ũndũ ũcio wekĩkĩte. Rĩrĩa maakinyire harĩ Jesũ na makĩona mũndũ ũcio woimĩtwo nĩ ndaimono aikarĩte magũrũ-inĩ ma Jesũ, arĩ na nguo na arĩ na meciiria mega, magĩĩtigĩra mũno.
Then people went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting at Jesus' feet, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.
36 Andũ arĩa meyoneire ũndũ ũcio makĩĩra andũ acio angĩ ũrĩa mũndũ ũcio warĩ na ndaimono aahonetio.
Those who saw it told them how he who had been possessed by demons was healed.
37 Nao andũ othe a rũgongo rũu rwa Agerasi magĩthaitha Jesũ oime kũu kwao amatige, nĩgũkorwo nĩmanyiitĩtwo nĩ guoya. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jesũ agĩtoonya gatarũ agĩthiĩ.
All the people of the surrounding region of the Geresenes asked him to leave them, for they were very much afraid; and he entered into the boat and returned.
38 Nake mũndũ ũcio warutĩtwo ndaimono akĩmũthaitha mathiĩ nake, no Jesũ akĩmwatha athiĩ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ,
But the man from whom the demons had gone out begged him that he might go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying,
39 “Cooka mũciĩ ũkoige ũrĩa wothe Ngai agwĩkĩire.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũndũ ũcio agĩthiĩ akĩĩra andũ othe a itũũra ũrĩa Jesũ aamwĩkĩire.
"Return to your house, and declare what great things God has done for you." He went his way, proclaiming throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.
40 Na rĩrĩ, Jesũ aacooka kuuma mũrĩmo ũũrĩa ũngĩ wa iria, andũ aingĩ nĩmamwamũkĩrire tondũ nĩmamwetereire.
When Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.
41 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũndũ wetagwo Jairũ warĩ mũnene wa thunagogi agĩũka, akĩĩgũithia magũrũ-inĩ ma Jesũ, akĩmũthaitha athiĩ gwake,
And look, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue. He fell down at Jesus' feet, and pleaded with him to come into his house,
42 nĩ ũndũ mũirĩtu wake wa mũmwe warĩ wa ta mĩaka ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ aarĩ hakuhĩ gũkua. Na Jesũ arĩ njĩra-inĩ agĩthiĩ-rĩ, andũ nĩmamũhatĩkaga.
for he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. But as he went, the crowds pressed against him.
43 Gatagatĩ-inĩ ka andũ acio nĩ haarĩ na mũtumia ũmwe watũire oiraga thakame mĩaka ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ, na gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩamũhonirie.
A woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years (who had spent all her living on physicians) and could not be healed by any,
44 Mũtumia ũcio agĩũka na thuutha wa Jesũ, akĩhutia gĩcũrĩ kĩa nguo yake, na o rĩmwe agĩtiga kuura.
came behind him, and touched the fringe of his garment, and immediately the flow of her blood stopped.
45 Nake Jesũ akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Nũũ ũcio wahutia?” Rĩrĩa othe maakaanire, Petero akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, andũ nĩmagũthiũrũrũkĩirie na magakũhatĩka.”
Jesus said, "Who touched me?" When all denied it, Peter and those with him said, "Master, the crowds press and jostle you."
46 Nowe Jesũ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ harĩ mũndũ waahutia, tondũ nĩndaigua hinya woima thĩinĩ wakwa.”
But Jesus said, "Someone did touch me, for I perceived that power has gone out of me."
47 Nake mũtumia ũcio, ona atĩ ndangĩhota kwĩhitha, agĩũka akĩinainaga, akĩĩgũithia magũrũ-inĩ make. Arĩ hau mbere ya andũ othe akĩheana gĩtũmi kĩrĩa gĩatũmĩte amũhutie na ũrĩa aahonirio o ro rĩmwe.
When the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling, and falling down before him declared to him in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately.
48 Nake Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mwarĩ ũyũ, gwĩtĩkia gwaku nĩkuo gwatũma ũhone. Thiĩ na thayũ.”
He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace."
49 Na o hĩndĩ ĩyo Jesũ akĩaragia, hagĩkinya mũndũ woimĩte mũciĩ kwa Jairũ ũrĩa mũnene wa thunagogi, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mwarĩguo nĩarĩkĩtie gũkua, tiga gũthĩĩnia Mũrutani.”
While he still spoke, one from the ruler of the synagogue's house came, saying to him, "Your daughter is dead. Do not trouble the Teacher."
50 Jesũ aigua ũguo, akĩĩra Jairũ atĩrĩ, “Tiga gwĩtigĩra, wee ĩtĩkia tu, na nĩekũhona.”
But Jesus hearing it, answered him, "Do not be afraid. Only believe, and she will be healed."
51 Rĩrĩa aakinyire kwa Jairũ, ndaarekire mũndũ o na ũmwe atoonye hamwe nake, tiga o Petero, na Jakubu, na Johana, na ithe na nyina a mwana ũcio.
When he came to the house, he did not allow anyone to enter in with him, except Peter, John, James, the father of the child, and her mother.
52 Hĩndĩ ĩyo andũ othe no kũrĩra maarĩraga magĩcakayaga nĩ ũndũ wa mwana ũcio. Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Tigai kũrĩra, ti mũkuũ, nĩ gũkoma akomete.”
All were weeping and mourning her, but he said, "Do not weep. She is not dead, but sleeping."
53 Nao makĩmũthekerera, tondũ nĩmooĩ atĩ aarĩ mũkuũ.
They were ridiculing him, knowing that she was dead.
54 Nowe Jesũ akĩnyiita mwana ũcio guoko, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mwana wakwa, ũkĩra!”
But he, taking her by the hand, called, saying, "Child, arise."
55 Na hĩndĩ o ĩyo agĩcookererwo nĩ muoyo wake, na o rĩmwe akĩrũgama. Jesũ agĩcooka akĩmeera mahe mwana ũcio kĩndũ gĩa kũrĩa.
Her spirit returned, and she rose up immediately. He commanded that something be given to her to eat.
56 Nao aciari ake makĩgega mũno, nowe akĩmaatha matikeere mũndũ o na ũ ũndũ ũcio wekĩkĩte.
Her parents were amazed, but he commanded them to tell no one what had been done.
