< 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 was past, Miriam Magdalene, and Miriam the mother of Jacob, and Shalom bought spices, that they might come and anoint him.
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 came to the tomb when the sun had risen.
3 nĩmoranagia atĩrĩ, “Nũũ ũgũtũgaragarĩria ihiga rĩehere mũromo-inĩ wa mbĩrĩra?”
They were saying among themselves, “Who will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us?”
4 No rĩrĩa maatiirire maitho, makĩona ihiga rĩu nĩrĩagaragarĩtio rĩkehera, nĩgũkorwo rĩarĩ inene mũno.
for it was very big. Looking up, they saw that the stone was rolled back.
5 Na rĩrĩa maatoonyaga mbĩrĩra-thĩinĩ, makĩona mwanake wehumbĩte nguo njerũ ndaaya aikarĩte thĩ mwena wao wa ũrĩo, nao makĩmaka.
Entering into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe; and they were amazed.
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, “Don’t be amazed. You seek Yeshua, the Nazarene, who has been crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they 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 goes before you into Galilee. There you will see him, as he said to you.’”
8 Atumia acio makiuma hau mbĩrĩra-inĩ makĩinainaga na magegete. Matirĩ mũndũ meerire ũndũ, tondũ nĩmetigagĩra.
They went out, and fled from the tomb, for trembling and astonishment had come on them. They said nothing to anyone; for they were 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.) Now when he had risen early on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Miriam 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 had been with him, as they mourned and wept.
11 Nao maigua atĩ Jesũ nĩariũkĩte, na atĩ Mariamu nĩamuonete, makĩrega gwĩtĩkia.
When they heard that he was alive and had been seen by her, they disbelieved.
12 Thuutha ũcio Jesũ akiumĩrĩra andũ angĩ eerĩ ao, ahaana ũndũ ũngĩ, rĩrĩa maathiiaga mĩgũnda-inĩ.
After these things he was revealed in another form to two of them as they walked, on their way into the country.
13 Andũ acio makĩhũndũka, magĩthiĩ makĩĩra arutwo arĩa angĩ; no-o nao makĩrega kũmetĩkia.
They went away and told it to the rest. They didn’t believe them, either.
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.
Afterward he was revealed to the Eleven themselves as they sat at the table; and he rebuked them for their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they didn’t believe those who had seen him after he had risen.
15 Akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Thiĩi thĩ yothe mũkahunjĩrie andũ othe Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega.
He said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the Good News to the whole creation.
16 Na mũndũ o wothe ũgetĩkia na abatithio nĩakahonoka, no ũrĩa wothe ũtagetĩkia nĩagatuĩrwo ciira.
He who believes and is immersed will be saved; but he who disbelieves 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 accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they will speak with 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 take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it will in no way hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”
19 Mwathani Jesũ aarĩkia kũmaarĩria ũhoro ũcio, agĩtwarwo igũrũ na agĩikara thĩ guoko-inĩ kwa ũrĩo kwa Ngai.
So then the Lord, after he had spoken to them, was received 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.
They went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word by the signs that followed. Amen.
