Mariko 4
1 Nake Jesũ akĩambĩrĩria kũrutana o rĩngĩ arĩ kũu hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria. Na rĩrĩ, gĩkundi kĩa andũ kĩrĩa kĩonganĩte gĩkamũrigiicĩria kĩarĩ kĩnene nginya gĩgĩtũma atoonye gatarũ-inĩ, agĩikara thĩinĩ wako kũu iria-inĩ; nao andũ acio angĩ othe magĩikara hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria.
And hee began againe to teache by the sea side, and there gathered vnto him a great multitude, so that hee entred into a shippe, and sate in the sea, and all the people was by the sea side on the land.
2 Na akĩmaruta maũndũ maingĩ na ngerekano, na akĩrutana akĩmeera atĩrĩ,
And he taught them many things in parables, and said vnto them in his doctrine,
3 “Ta thikĩrĩriai! Mũrĩmi ũmwe nĩoimagarire akahure mbeũ ciake.
Hearken: Beholde, there went out a sower to sowe.
4 Na rĩrĩa aahuraga mbeũ icio, imwe ikĩgũa mũkĩra-inĩ wa njĩra, nacio nyoni igĩũka igĩcirĩa.
And it came to passe as he sowed, that some fell by the way side, and the foules of the heauen came, and deuoured it vp.
5 Iria ingĩ ikĩgũa rũnyanjara-inĩ kũrĩa gũtaarĩ na tĩĩri mũingĩ. Nacio ikĩmera narua tondũ tĩĩri ndwarĩ mũriku.
And some fell on stonie grounde, where it had not much earth, and by and by sprang vp, because it had not depth of earth.
6 No rĩrĩa riũa rĩaarire rĩgĩcina mĩmera ĩyo, nayo ĩkĩũma tondũ ndĩarĩ na mĩri.
But assoone as ye Sunne was vp, it was burnt vp, and because it had not roote, it withered away.
7 Mbeũ iria ingĩ ikĩgũa mĩigua-inĩ, nayo mĩigua ĩgĩkũra, ĩgĩthararia mbeũ icio ikĩaga gũciara.
And some fell among the thornes, and the thornes grewe vp, and choked it, so that it gaue no fruite.
8 Ingĩ nacio ikĩgũa tĩĩri-inĩ mũnoru. Ikĩmera, igĩkũra na igĩciara maciaro, imwe ikiumia maita mĩrongo ĩtatũ, ingĩ maita mĩrongo ĩtandatũ, o na ingĩ maita igana.”
Some againe fell in good grounde, and did yeelde fruite that sprong vp, and grewe, and it brought foorth, some thirtie folde, some sixtie folde, and some an hundreth folde.
9 Jesũ agĩcooka akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩa ũrĩ na matũ ma kũigua, nĩakĩigue.”
Then he said vnto them, He that hath eares to heare, let him heare.
10 Na rĩrĩa aarĩ wiki, arutwo arĩa ikũmi na eerĩ, o na arĩa angĩ maarĩ hamwe nake, makĩmũũria ũhoro wa ngerekano icio.
And whe he was alone, they that were about him with the twelue, asked him of ye parable.
11 Nake akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ nĩmũheetwo ũmenyo wa kũmenya hitho cia ũthamaki wa Ngai. No arĩa marĩ na kũu nja maaragĩrio maũndũ mothe na ngerekano
And he saide vnto them, To you it is giuen to knowe the mysterie of the kingdome of God: but vnto them that are without, all thinges bee done in parables,
12 nĩgeetha, “‘matũũre maroraga no makaaga kuona, na matũũre maiguaga na matimenye ũndũ; nĩguo hihi matikae kũgarũrũka marekerwo mehia mao!’”
That they seeing, may see, and not discerne: and they hearing, may heare, and not vnderstand, least at any time they should turne, and their sinnes should be forgiuen them.
13 Ningĩ Jesũ akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ mũtanataũkĩrwo nĩ ngerekano ĩyo? Mũngĩkĩmenya atĩa ngerekano iria ingĩ?
Againe he said vnto them, Perceiue ye not this parable? howe then should ye vnderstand all other parables?
14 Mũrĩmi ahuraga kiugo kĩa Ngai.
The sower soweth the worde.
15 Andũ amwe matariĩ ta mbeũ iria ciagũire njĩra-inĩ harĩa ũhoro ũhuragwo. Acio nĩ arĩa maiguaga ũhoro, na maarĩkia kũigua-rĩ, Shaitani agooka akeheria ũhoro ũcio wahaandwo thĩinĩ wao.
And these are they that receiue the seede by the wayes side, in whome the worde is sowen: but when they haue heard it, Satan commeth immediatly, and taketh away the worde that was sowen in their heartes.
16 Angĩ nao matariĩ ta mbeũ iria ciagũire rũnyanjara-inĩ. Acio nĩ arĩa maiguaga ũhoro na o rĩmwe makawamũkĩra na gĩkeno.
And likewise they that receiue the seede in stony ground, are they, which whe they haue heard the word, straightwayes receiue it with gladnesse.
17 No tondũ matirĩ na mĩri-rĩ, maikaraga o kahinda kanini. Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa thĩĩna woka kana maanyariirwo nĩ ũndũ wa ũhoro wa Ngai, magũũaga o narua.
Yet haue they no roote in themselues, and endure but a time: for when trouble and persecution ariseth for the worde, immediatly they be offended.
18 Angĩ nao matariĩ ta mbeũ iria ciagũire mĩigua-inĩ. Acio nĩ arĩa maiguaga ũhoro,
Also they that receiue the seede among the thornes, are such as heare the word:
19 no mĩhangʼo ya maũndũ ma mũtũũrĩre ũyũ, na kũheenererio nĩ ũtonga, na merirĩria ma maũndũ mangĩ, magathararia ũhoro ũcio, magatũma wage maciaro. (aiōn g165)
But the cares of this world, and the deceitfulnes of riches, and the lustes of other things enter in, and choke the word, and it is vnfruitfull. (aiōn g165)
20 Angĩ matariĩ ta mbeũ iria ciagũire tĩĩri-inĩ ũrĩa mũnoru. Acio nĩ arĩa maiguaga ũhoro, makawĩtĩkĩra, na magaciara maciaro, amwe maita mĩrongo ĩtatũ, na angĩ maita mĩrongo ĩtandatũ, o na angĩ maita igana ma kĩrĩa kĩahaandirwo.”
But they that haue receiued seede in good ground, are they that heare the worde, and receiue it, and bring foorth fruite: one corne thirtie, another sixtie, and some an hundreth.
21 Jesũ agĩcooka akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “No anga tawa wakagio ũgacooka ũgakunĩkĩrio na irebe, kana ũkaigwo rungu rwa ũrĩrĩ? Handũ ha ũguo githĩ ndũigagĩrĩrwo handũ igũrũ?
Also he saide vnto them, Commeth the candle in, to be put vnder a bushell, or vnder the bed, and not to be put on a candlesticke?
22 Nĩgũkorwo kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩrĩ hitho-inĩ nĩgĩkaguũrio, nakĩo kĩrĩa gĩothe kĩhithĩtwo nĩgĩkareehwo ũtheri-inĩ.
For there is nothing hid, that shall not be opened: neither is there a secret, but that it shall come to light.
23 Akorwo mũndũ arĩ na matũ ma kũigua, nĩakĩigue.”
If any man haue eares to heare, let him heare.
24 Agĩthiĩ na mbere, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Menyagĩrĩrai wega ũrĩa mũiguaga. Gĩthimi kĩrĩa mũthimanagĩra nakĩo, no kĩo mũrĩthimagĩrwo nakĩo, na nĩmũrĩkĩragĩrĩrio.
And he said vnto them, Take heede what ye heare. With what measure ye mete, it shall be measured vnto you: and vnto you that heare, shall more be giuen.
25 Ũrĩa wothe wĩ na indo nĩakongererwo nyingĩ; na ũrĩa wothe ũtarĩ nĩagatuunywo o na kĩrĩa arĩ nakĩo.”
For vnto him that hath, shall it be giuen, and from him that hath not, shall be taken away, euen that he hath.
26 Jesũ agĩcooka akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũthamaki wa Ngai ũtariĩ ta mũndũ ũrĩa ũhaandaga mbeũ tĩĩri-inĩ.
Also he said, So is the kingdome of God, as if a man should cast seede in the ground,
27 Akomaga ũtukũ na agokĩra mũthenya, nacio mbeũ ikamera na igakũra, nowe ndamenyaga ũrĩa ikũraga.
And shoulde sleepe, and rise vp night and day, and the seede should spring and growe vp, he not knowing howe.
28 Tĩĩri guo mwene nĩguo ũtũmaga iciare. Ciambaga kũruta nguha igacooka ikaruta igira, na thuutha ũcio igira thĩinĩ hakagĩa na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa njiganu.
For the earth bringeth foorth fruite of it selfe, first the blade, then the eares, after that full corne in the eares.
29 Na maciaro macio maarĩkia kũũma, mũrĩmi ũcio akoya rũhiũ rwa igetha, akagetha tondũ hĩndĩ ya magetha nĩ yakinya.”
And assoone as the fruite sheweth it selfe, anon hee putteth in the sickle, because the haruest is come.
30 Agĩcooka akiuga atĩrĩ, “Tũngĩhaanania ũthamaki wa Ngai na kĩ? Kana nĩ ngerekano ĩrĩkũ tũngĩheana ũhoro waguo nayo?
He saide moreouer, Whereunto shall wee liken the kingdome of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it?
31 Ũhaana ta mbeũ ya karatarĩ, arĩ yo mbeũ ĩrĩa nini mũno mũhaandaga tĩĩri-inĩ.
It is like a graine of mustarde seede, which when it is sowen in the earth, is the least of all seedes that be in the earth:
32 No yahaandwo-rĩ, ĩkũraga ĩgatuĩka mũmera mũnene gũkĩra mĩmera ĩrĩa ĩngĩ yothe ya mũgũnda, na ũkagĩa na honge nene nginya nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ igooka igaaka itara na ikahurũka kĩĩruru-inĩ kĩaguo.”
But after that it is sowen, it groweth vp, and is greatest of all herbes, and beareth great branches, so that the foules of heauen may builde vnder the shadow of it.
33 Jesũ nĩamaheaga ũhoro na ngerekano ingĩ nyingĩ ta icio o ta ũrĩa mangĩahotire kũigua.
And with many such parables he preached the word vnto them, as they were able to heare it.
34 Gũtirĩ ũndũ aameeraga atekwaria na ngerekano. No rĩrĩa maarĩ na arutwo ake oiki, nĩamataragĩria maũndũ mothe.
And without parables spake hee nothing vnto them: but he expounded all thinges to his disciples apart.
35 Na mũthenya o ũcio gwakinya hwaĩ-inĩ-rĩ, akĩĩra arutwo ake atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũringei tũthiĩ mũrĩmo ũũrĩa ũngĩ.”
Nowe the same day when euen was come, he saide vnto them, Let vs passe ouer vnto the other side.
36 Na maarĩkia gũtiga gĩkundi kĩa andũ na thuutha, makĩhaica gatarũ-inĩ o harĩa Jesũ aarĩ. Na nĩ kwarĩ na tũtarũ tũngĩ twatwaranire hamwe nake.
And they left the multitude, and tooke him as he was in the shippe, and there were also with him other little shippes.
37 Na rĩrĩ, kũu iria-inĩ gũkĩgĩa na kĩhuhũkanio kĩnene, namo makũmbĩ ma maaĩ magĩtoonya gatarũ thĩinĩ, o nginya gakĩenda kũũrĩra.
And there arose a great storme of winde, and the waues dashed into the shippe, so that it was now full.
38 Jesũ aarĩ toro akomeire muto mũthia-inĩ wa gatarũ. Nao arutwo makĩmũũkĩria makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mũrutani, kaĩ wee ũtaramaka tũkĩũrĩra maaĩ-inĩ?”
And he was in the sterne asleepe on a pillow: and they awoke him, and saide to him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?
39 Nake Jesũ agĩũkĩra, agĩkaania rũhuho na akĩĩra makũmbĩ macio ma iria atĩrĩ, “Kira! Na ũhoorere!” Naruo rũhuho rũgĩtiga kũhurutana, gũkĩhoorera biũ.
And hee rose vp, and rebuked the winde, and saide vnto the sea, Peace, and be still. So the winde ceased, and it was a great calme.
40 Jesũ akĩũria arutwo ake atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmĩte mũmake ũguo? O na rĩu mũtirĩ mũretĩkia?”
Then he saide vnto them, Why are ye so fearefull? how is it that ye haue no faith?
41 Nao magĩĩtigĩra mũno na makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ mũndũ ũyũ akĩrĩ ũũ? Tondũ o na rũhuho na makũmbĩ ma iria nĩiramwathĩkĩra!”
And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, Who is this, that both the winde and sea obey him?
