< Mariko 2 >
1 Matukũ manini maathira, Jesũ agĩcooka Kaperinaumu rĩngĩ, nao andũ makĩigua atĩ nĩoka mũciĩ.
AND Jeshu entered again into Kapher-nachum for some days. And when they had heard that he was in the house,
2 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ aingĩ makĩũngana nginya hakĩaga handũ ha gũikarwo, o na nginya nja ya mũrango, nake akĩmahunjĩria ũhoro.
many were gathered together, so that it could not contain them, nor yet (the space) before the gate; and he spake with them the word.
3 Nĩhookire andũ, makĩmũrehera mũndũ warũarĩte mũrimũ wa gũkua ciĩga, akuuĩtwo nĩ andũ ana.
And they came to him, and brought him a paralytic borne between four.
4 Na tondũ matingĩahotire kũmũkinyia harĩa Jesũ aarĩ nĩ ũndũ wa ũingĩ wa andũ-rĩ, magĩtharũria nyũmba igũrũ wa hau Jesũ aarĩ na maarĩkia kũhatharia, makĩharũrũkia mũndũ ũcio wakuĩte ciĩga arĩ kĩbarĩ-inĩ kĩu aakomeire.
And when they could not approach him for the crowd, they ascended to the roof, and took the covering from the place where Jeshu was, and let down the couch on which the paralytic lay.
5 Rĩrĩa Jesũ oonire wĩtĩkio wao, akĩĩra mũndũ ũcio wakuĩte ciĩga atĩrĩ, “Mũriũ, nĩwarekerwo mehia maku.”
When Jeshu saw their faith, he said to the paralytic himself, My son, forgiven to thee are thy sins.
6 Na rĩrĩ, arutani amwe a watho maarĩ ho, nao makĩĩyũria na ngoro atĩrĩ,
But some of the Sophree and Pharishee were there, who sat and reasoned in their heart,
7 “Mũndũ ũyũ ekwaria ũguo nĩkĩ? Nĩ araruma Ngai! Nũũ ũngĩ ũngĩhota kũrekanĩra mehia tiga Ngai wiki?”
Who is this uttering blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but One, Aloha?
8 O rĩmwe Jesũ akĩmenya thĩinĩ wa roho wake atĩ ũguo nĩguo meciiragia ngoro-inĩ ciao, nake akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma mwĩciirie maũndũ macio ngoro-inĩ cianyu?
But Jeshu knew in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, and said to them, Why reason you these things in your heart?
9 Nĩ ũndũ ũrĩkũ mũhũthũ: kwĩra mũndũ ũyũ ũkuĩte ciĩga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩ warekerwo mehia maku,’ kana kũmwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Ũkĩra woe kĩbarĩ gĩaku wĩtware’?
Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, Forgiven are thy sins, or to say, Arise, lift up thy couch, and walk?
10 No nĩgeetha mũmenye atĩ Mũrũ wa Mũndũ arĩ na ũhoti gũkũ thĩ wa kũrekanĩra mehia-rĩ ….” Akĩĩra mũndũ ũcio wakuĩte ciĩga atĩrĩ,
But, that you may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, he said to the paralytic,
11 “Ndakwĩra atĩrĩ, ũkĩra, oya kĩbarĩ gĩaku ũinũke mũciĩ.”
To thee I say, Arise, take up thy couch, and go to thy house.
12 Nake agĩũkĩra, akĩoya kĩbarĩ gĩake, agĩĩthiĩra andũ othe mamwĩroreire. Ũndũ ũcio ũgĩtũma andũ othe magege, nao makĩgooca Ngai, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ tũtirĩ tuona ũndũ ta ũyũ-ĩ!”
And he arose at once, and took up his couch, and went forth before them all; so that all wondered, and glorified Aloha, saying, Never saw we thus.
13 O rĩngĩ Jesũ nĩoimagarire agĩthiĩ hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria; nakĩo kĩrĩndĩ kĩnene gĩgĩũka kũrĩ we, nake akĩambĩrĩria gũkĩruta ũhoro.
AND he went forth again to the sea; and the whole multitude came to him, and he taught them.
14 Na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aahĩtũkaga, akĩona Lawi mũrũ wa Alufayo aikarĩte harĩa heetagĩrio mbeeca cia igooti. Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nũmĩrĩra,” nake Lawi agĩũkĩra akĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
And when he had passed, he saw Levi bar Chalphai sitting among the publicans: and he said to him, Come after me; and arising, he went after him.
15 Na rĩrĩa Jesũ aarĩĩaga irio cia hwaĩ-inĩ nyũmba kwa Lawi, etia mbeeca cia igooti aingĩ na ehia nĩmarĩĩanĩire nake na arutwo ake, tondũ maarĩ aingĩ nĩmamũrũmĩrĩire.
And while he reclined in the house, many publicans and sinners reclined with Jeshu and with his disciples; for they were many, and they followed him.
16 Rĩrĩa arutani a watho arĩa maarĩ Afarisai moonire akĩrĩĩanĩra na andũ ehia na etia mbeeca cia igooti, makĩũria arutwo ake atĩrĩ, “Arĩĩanagĩra na etia mbeeca cia igooti na ehia nĩkĩ?”
And the Sophree and Pharishee, when they saw him eat with publicans and with sinners, said to his disciples, Why with publicans and with sinners doth he eat and drink?
17 Nake Jesũ aigua ũguo akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Andũ arĩa agima mĩĩrĩ ti o mabataragio nĩ ndagĩtarĩ, no nĩ arĩa arũaru. Ndiokire gwĩta andũ arĩa athingu, no nĩ arĩa ehia.”
But when Jeshu heard, he said to them, The healthy have no need of the physician, but they who are sorely affected: I have not come to call the righteous but the sinners.
18 Na rĩrĩ, arutwo a Johana na Afarisai nĩmehingĩte kũrĩa irio. Andũ amwe magĩũka makĩũria Jesũ atĩrĩ, “Nĩkĩ gĩtũmaga arutwo a Johana na arutwo a Afarisai mehinge kũrĩa irio, no arutwo aku matiĩhingaga?”
Now the disciples of Juchanon and of the Pharishee fasted. And they came and said to him, (While) the disciples of Juchanon and of the Pharishee fast, why do not thy disciples fast?
19 Nake Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Ageni a mũhikania mangĩĩhinga kũrĩa irio atĩa rĩrĩa arĩ hamwe nao? Matingĩhinga rĩrĩa rĩothe marĩ hamwe nake.
Jeshu said to them, Can the sons of the marriage-chamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? No;
20 No ihinda nĩrĩgakinya rĩrĩa mũhikania akeeherio kuuma kũrĩ o, na hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakehinga kũrĩa irio.”
but the days shall come when the bridegroom shall be taken up from them: then shall they fast in those days.
21 “Gũtirĩ mũndũ wĩkagĩra nguo ngũrũ kĩraka kĩerũ. Angĩĩka ũguo, kĩraka kĩu kĩerũ no kĩguucie nguo ĩyo ngũrũ, nakĩo gĩtũme hau hatarũku hatũrĩke makĩria.
No man inserteth a new piece, and seweth it upon an old vestment; lest that new should take away its fulness from the old, and make the rent the greater.
22 Ningĩ gũtirĩ mũndũ wĩkĩraga ndibei ya mũhihano mondo-inĩ ngũrũ. Angĩĩka ũguo, ndibei ĩyo no ĩtarũre mondo icio, nayo ndibei ĩyo ĩitĩke, nacio mondo ithũke. No rĩrĩ, ndibei ya mũhihano ĩĩkĩragwo thĩinĩ wa mondo njerũ.”
And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; lest the wine rend the bottles, and the bottles perish, and the wine be spilled: but they put new vine into new bottles.
23 Na mũthenya ũmwe warĩ wa Thabatũ-rĩ, Jesũ nĩatuĩkanĩirie mĩgũnda-inĩ ya ngano. Na rĩrĩa aathiiaga arĩ hamwe na arutwo ake, arutwo makĩambĩrĩria gũtua ngira cia ngano.
AND it was that, as Jeshu went among the grain, his disciples walked and plucked the ears.
24 Nao Afarisai makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ta rora, nĩ kĩĩ kĩratũma arutwo aku meke ũrĩa watho ũtetĩkĩrĩtie mũthenya wa Thabatũ?”
And the Pharishee said to him, See how on the shabath they do what is not lawful.
25 Nake akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ mũtarĩ mwathoma ũrĩa Daudi we mwene na arĩa maarĩ nake meekire rĩrĩa maarĩ ahũtu na makabatario nĩ gĩa kũrĩa?
Jeshu saith to them, Have you never read what David did, when he needed and was hungry, he, and they (who were) with him?
26 Aatoonyire nyũmba ya Ngai rĩrĩa Abiatharu aarĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai ũrĩa mũnene, akĩrĩa mĩgate ĩrĩa yamũrĩirwo Ngai, o ĩrĩa yetĩkĩrĩtio kũrĩĩagwo nĩ athĩnjĩri-Ngai oiki. Na agĩcooka akĩhe arĩa maarĩ nake ĩmwe yayo.”
how he entered the house of Aloha, when Abiathar was high priest, and did eat the bread of the table of the Lord, that which it is not lawful except for the priests to eat, and gave also to those who were with him?
27 Ningĩ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mũthenya wa Thabatũ wekĩrirwo ho nĩ ũndũ wa mũndũ, no mũndũ ndombirwo nĩ ũndũ wa Thabatũ.
And he said to them, that the shabath on account of the Son of man was made, and not the Son of man on account of the shabath.
28 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Mũrũ wa Mũndũ nĩ Mwathani o na wa mũthenya wa Thabatũ.”
The Son of man, therefore, is the Lord also of the shabath.
