< Mariko 3 >

1 Ningĩ nĩatoonyire thunagogi rĩngĩ, na thĩinĩ nĩ kwarĩ na mũndũ wonjete guoko.
Once again Jesus went into the synagogue, and a man was there who had a withered hand.
2 Andũ amwe ao nĩmacaragia ũndũ mangĩthitangĩra Jesũ, nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩmũrora mũno mone kana nĩekũhonia mũndũ ũcio mũthenya wa Thabatũ.
Now the Pharisees were watching Jesus closely to see if he would heal the man on the Sabbath, so that they could accuse him.
3 Nake Jesũ akĩĩra mũndũ ũcio warĩ mwonju guoko atĩrĩ, “Rũgama haha mbere ya andũ othe.”
And he said to the man with the withered hand, “Rise and come forward.”
4 Ningĩ Jesũ akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũndũ ũrĩkũ mwĩtĩkĩrie nĩ watho mũthenya wa Thabatũ; nĩ gwĩka wega kana nĩ gwĩka ũũru, nĩ kũhonokia muoyo kana nĩ kũũraga?” No-o magĩkira ki.
Then Jesus said to them, “Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?” But they were silent.
5 Akĩmarora arakaire, na aiguĩte ũũru nĩ ũndũ wa ũremi wa ngoro ciao, akĩĩra mũndũ ũcio atĩrĩ, “Tambũrũkia guoko gwaku.” Nake agĩgũtambũrũkia, nakuo guoko gũkĩhona biũ.
After looking around at them with anger, grieved by the hardness of their hearts, he said to the man, “Stretch out yoʋr hand.” So he stretched it out, and his hand was restored, becoming as sound as the other.
6 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Afarisai makiumagara na makĩambĩrĩria gũthugunda me hamwe na Aherodia ũrĩa mangĩũraga Jesũ.
Then the Pharisees went out and immediately took counsel with the Herodians against Jesus as to how they might destroy him.
7 Nake Jesũ na arutwo ake makiuma kũu magĩthiĩ iria-inĩ, nakĩo gĩkundi kĩnene kĩa andũ kuuma Galili gĩkĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
But Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the sea, and a great multitude from Galilee followed him, and also from Judea,
8 Na rĩrĩa maiguire ũrĩa wothe eekaga, andũ aingĩ magĩũka kũrĩ we moimĩte Judea, na Jerusalemu na Idumea o na mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ wa Jorodani, o na kuuma kũrĩa gwakuhĩrĩirie Turo na Sidoni.
from Jerusalem, from Idumea, and from beyond the Jordan. A great multitude of people from around Tyre and Sidon also came to him when they heard about everything he was doing.
9 Na tondũ wa gĩkundi kĩu, akĩĩra arutwo ake mamũhaarĩrĩrie gatarũ nĩguo gĩkundi kĩu gĩtige kũmũhatĩka.
Then he told his disciples to have a small boat ready for him, so that the crowd would not crush him.
10 Nĩgũkorwo nĩahonetie andũ aingĩ, nĩ ũndũ ũcio arĩa maarĩ na mĩrimũ nĩmatindĩkanaga nĩguo mamũhutie.
For he had healed many, so that all who had afflictions were pressing toward him to touch him.
11 Na rĩrĩa rĩothe ngoma thũku ciamuonaga, ciegũithagia thĩ mbere yake, igakaya ikiugaga atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwe Mũrũ wa Ngai.”
Whenever the unclean spirits saw him, they would fall down before him and cry out, “Yoʋ are the Son of God.”
12 Nowe agĩcikaania na hinya mũno itikoige we nĩwe ũ.
But he would strictly warn them not to make him known.
13 Jesũ agĩcooka akĩambata kĩrĩma-inĩ na agĩĩta arĩa eyendeire, nao magĩũka harĩ we.
Afterward Jesus went up on the mountain and called for those whom he wanted, and they came to him.
14 Akĩamũra ikũmi na eerĩ, akĩmatua atũmwo, nĩgeetha makoragwo nake, na nĩguo amatũmage makahunjie,
He appointed twelve so that they might be with him and so that he might send them out to preach
15 na magĩe na ũhoti wa kũingata ndaimono.
and to have authority to heal diseases and cast out demons.
16 Andũ acio ikũmi na eerĩ aathuurire nĩ Simoni (ũrĩa aatuire Petero);
He appointed Simon (whom he gave the name Peter);
17 na Jakubu wa Zebedi na mũrũ wa nyina Johana (nao acio akĩmatua Boanerigesi, ũguo nĩ kuuga Ariũ a Marurumĩ);
James the son of Zebedee and John the brother of James (whom he gave the name Boanerges, which means, Sons of Thunder);
18 na Anderea, na Filipu na Baritholomayo, na Mathayo, na Toma, na Jakubu wa Alufayo na Thadayo, na Simoni ũrĩa Mũzelote
Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Cananite,
19 na Judasi Mũisikariota, ũrĩa wamũkunyanĩire.
and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him. Then they entered a house,
20 Ningĩ Jesũ agĩtoonya nyũmba, na o rĩngĩ kĩrĩndĩ gĩkĩũngana o nginya we na arutwo ake makĩremwo nĩ kũrĩa irio.
and a crowd came together again, so that Jesus and his disciples could not even eat bread.
21 Rĩrĩa andũ ao maiguire ũhoro ũcio, magĩthiĩ kũmũnyiita, nĩgũkorwo moigire atĩrĩ, “Nĩagũrũkĩte.”
When his family heard about it, they went out to restrain him, for they said, “He is out of his mind.”
22 Nao arutani a watho arĩa maikũrũkĩte kuuma Jerusalemu makiuga atĩrĩ, “Aiyũrĩtwo nĩ Beelizebuli! Araingata ndaimono na hinya wa mũnene wa ndaimono.”
But the scribes who had come down from Jerusalem said, “He has Beelzebul,” and, “By the ruler of demons he casts out demons.”
23 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jesũ akĩmeeta, na akĩmarĩria na ngerekano, akĩmeera atĩrĩ: “Shaitani angĩhota atĩa kũingata Shaitani?
So Jesus called them over and said to them in parables, “How can Satan cast out Satan?
24 Ũthamaki ũngĩamũkana guo mwene, ũthamaki ũcio ndũngĩtũũra.
If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
25 Nyũmba ĩngĩamũkana na andũ ayo mokanĩrĩre, nyũmba ĩyo ndĩngĩtũũra.
And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.
26 Nake Shaitani angĩĩyũkĩrĩra we mwene na aamũkane-rĩ, ndangĩtũũra; nĩ gũthira egũthira.
And if Satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand, but has come to an end.
27 Na gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩhota gũtoonya nyũmba ya mũndũ njamba na amũtunye indo ciake, tiga ambire kuoha mũndũ ũcio njamba. Hĩndĩ ĩyo no rĩo angĩhota kũmũtunya indo cia nyũmba yake.
No one can enter the house of a strong man and plunder his goods unless he first binds the strong man. Then he can plunder his house.
28 Ndamwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, andũ nĩmakarekerwo mehia mao mothe o na irumi ciao ciothe iria magaakorwo marumĩte Ngai nacio.
“Truly I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they utter.
29 No ũrĩa wothe ũkaaruma Roho Mũtheru ndarĩ hĩndĩ akarekerwo, nĩehĩtie rĩĩhia rĩa gũtũũra tene na tene.” (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
But whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal judgment.” (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
30 Oigire ũguo tondũ moigaga atĩrĩ, “Arĩ na ngoma thũku.”
He said this because they were saying, “He has an unclean spirit.”
31 Hĩndĩ ĩyo, nyina wa Jesũ na ariũ a nyina na Jesũ magĩũka. Makĩrũgama nja, magĩtũma mũndũ atoonye akamwĩte.
Then Jesus' brothers and mother came, and standing outside, they sent word to him and called for him.
32 Nakĩo gĩkundi kĩa andũ nĩgĩaikarĩte thĩ hau kĩmũrigiicĩirie, nao makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Maitũguo na ariũ a maitũguo marĩ nja magĩgũcaria.”
There was a crowd sitting around Jesus, and they said to him, “Behold, yoʋr mother, yoʋr brothers, and yoʋr sisters are outside looking for yoʋ.”
33 Nake akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Maitũ na ariũ a maitũ nĩ a?”
But he answered them, “Who is my mother, or my brothers?”
34 Agĩcooka akĩrora arĩa maikarĩte mamũrigiicĩirie, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Maitũ na ariũ a maitũ nĩ aya!
And looking around in a circle at the people sitting there, he said, “Behold, these are my mother and my brothers!
35 Ũrĩa wothe wĩkaga maũndũ marĩa Ngai endaga, ũcio nĩwe mũrũ wa maitũ, na mwarĩ wa maitũ, o na maitũ.”
For whoever does the will of God is my brother and my sister and mother.”
