< Mariko 16 >

1 Na rĩrĩ, Thabatũ yathira, Mariamu Mũmagidali, na Mariamu nyina wa Jakubu, na Salome makĩgũra indo nungi wega nĩgeetha mathiĩ makahake mwĩrĩ wa Jesũ.
When the Sabbath day was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices that they might come and anoint Jesus' body.
2 Mũthenya wa mbere wa kiumia, rũciinĩ tene thuutha wa riũa kũratha, marĩ njĩra magĩthiĩ mbĩrĩra-inĩ,
Very early on the first day of the week, they went to the tomb when the sun came up.
3 nĩmoranagia atĩrĩ, “Nũũ ũgũtũgaragarĩria ihiga rĩehere mũromo-inĩ wa mbĩrĩra?”
They were saying to one another, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance to the tomb?”
4 No rĩrĩa maatiirire maitho, makĩona ihiga rĩu nĩrĩagaragarĩtio rĩkehera, nĩgũkorwo rĩarĩ inene mũno.
When they looked up, they saw that the stone had been rolled away, for it was very large.
5 Na rĩrĩa maatoonyaga mbĩrĩra-thĩinĩ, makĩona mwanake wehumbĩte nguo njerũ ndaaya aikarĩte thĩ mwena wao wa ũrĩo, nao makĩmaka.
They entered the tomb and saw a young man dressed in a white robe, sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed.
6 Nake akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Tigai kũmaka. Mũracaria Jesũ ũrĩa wa Nazarethi, ũrĩa ũrambirwo mũtĩ igũrũ. Nĩariũkĩte! Ndarĩ haha. Onei harĩa maramũigĩte.
He said to them, “Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus, the Nazarene, who was crucified. He is risen! He is not here. Look at the place where they had laid him.
7 No thiĩi mwĩre arutwo ake o na Petero atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩekũmũtongoria gũthiĩ Galili. Kũu nĩkuo mũkaamuona, o ta ũrĩa aamwĩrire’.”
But go, tell his disciples and Peter, 'He is going ahead of you to Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you.'”
8 Atumia acio makiuma hau mbĩrĩra-inĩ makĩinainaga na magegete. Matirĩ mũndũ meerire ũndũ, tondũ nĩmetigagĩra.
They went out and ran from the tomb; they were trembling and amazed. They said nothing to anyone because they were so afraid.
9 (note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) Mũthenya wa mbere wa kiumia rũciinĩ tene Jesũ ariũka-rĩ, aambire kuumĩrĩra Mariamu Mũmagidali ũrĩa aarutĩte ndaimono mũgwanja.
(note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) Early on the first day of the week, after he arose, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons.
10 Nake Mariamu agĩthiĩ akĩĩra arĩa maatũire na Jesũ, akĩmakora magĩcakaya na makĩrĩra.
She went and told those who were with him, while they were mourning and weeping.
11 Nao maigua atĩ Jesũ nĩariũkĩte, na atĩ Mariamu nĩamuonete, makĩrega gwĩtĩkia.
They heard that he was alive and that he had been seen by her, but they did not believe.
12 Thuutha ũcio Jesũ akiumĩrĩra andũ angĩ eerĩ ao, ahaana ũndũ ũngĩ, rĩrĩa maathiiaga mĩgũnda-inĩ.
After these things he appeared in a different form to two of them, as they were walking out into the country.
13 Andũ acio makĩhũndũka, magĩthiĩ makĩĩra arutwo arĩa angĩ; no-o nao makĩrega kũmetĩkia.
They went and told the rest of the disciples, but they did not believe them.
14 Thuutha ũcio Jesũ akiumĩrĩra arutwo arĩa ikũmi na ũmwe makĩrĩa irio; akĩmatetia nĩ ũndũ wa kwaga gwĩtĩkia na nĩ ũndũ wa ũmũ wa ngoro ciao, nĩ ũndũ wa kũrega gwĩtĩkia arĩa maamuonete thuutha wa kũriũka gwake.
Jesus later appeared to the eleven as they were reclining at the table, and he rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who saw him after he rose from the dead.
15 Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Thiĩi thĩ yothe mũkahunjĩrie andũ othe Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega.
He said to them, “Go into all the world, and preach the gospel to the entire creation.
16 Na mũndũ o wothe ũgetĩkia na abatithio nĩakahonoka, no ũrĩa wothe ũtagetĩkia nĩagatuĩrwo ciira.
He who believes and is baptized will be saved, and he who does not believe will be condemned.
17 Nacio ciama ici nĩ igatwaranaga na arĩa metĩkĩtie: Nĩmakaingata ndaimono thĩinĩ wa rĩĩtwa rĩakwa; na nĩmakaaria na thiomi njerũ;
These signs will go with those who believe: In my name they will cast out demons. They will speak in new languages.
18 na nĩmakanyiita nyoka na moko mao; na rĩrĩa makaanyua thumu, ndũkamathũkia o na hanini; nĩmakaigagĩrĩra andũ arĩa arũaru moko, nao mahone.”
They will pick up snakes with their hands, and if they drink anything deadly, it will not hurt them. They will lay hands on the sick, and they will get well.”
19 Mwathani Jesũ aarĩkia kũmaarĩria ũhoro ũcio, agĩtwarwo igũrũ na agĩikara thĩ guoko-inĩ kwa ũrĩo kwa Ngai.
After the Lord had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God.
20 Nao arutwo magĩcooka makiumagara na makĩhunjia ũhoro kũndũ guothe, nake Mwathani akĩrutithania wĩra nao, na agekĩraga ũhoro wake hinya na ũndũ wa ciama iria ciatwaranaga na ũhoro ũcio.
The disciples left and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them and confirmed the word by the signs that went with them.
