< Mariko 6 >

1 Thuutha ũcio Jesũ akiuma kũu agĩthiĩ itũũra rĩao, arĩ hamwe na arutwo ake.
Jesus, leaving that place, went to his own country, accompanied by his disciples.
2 Mũthenya wa Thabatũ wakinya, Jesũ akĩambĩrĩria kũruta andũ ũhoro arĩ thĩinĩ wa thunagogi, na andũ aingĩ arĩa maamũiguire makĩgega. Nao makĩũrania atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ aarutire maũndũ maya kũ? Nĩ ũũgĩ wa mũthemba ũrĩkũ ũyũ aheetwo, atĩ o na nĩaringaga ciama!
And on the Sabbath he taught in their synagogues, and many who heard him, said with astonishment, Whence has this man these abilities? What wisdom is this which he has gotten? and how are so great miracles performed by him?
3 Githĩ ũyũ ti ũrĩa bundi wa mbaũ? Githĩ ũyũ ti mũrũ wa Mariamu, o we mũrũ wa nyina na Jakubu na Jusufu na Judasi na Simoni. Na aarĩ a nyina githĩ matirĩ gũkũ hamwe na ithuĩ?” Nao makĩmũrakarĩra.
Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James and Joses, and Judas and Simon? Are not his sisters also here with us? And they were offended at him.
4 Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Kũndũ mũnabii ataheagwo gĩtĩĩo no itũũra-inĩ rĩake, na kwa andũ a nyũmba yao, na gwake mũciĩ.”
But Jesus said to them, A prophet is no where disregarded, except in his own country, and amongst his own relations, and in his own house.
5 Nake Jesũ ndaahotire kũringa ciama kũu, o tiga atĩ nĩaigĩrĩire andũ mataarĩ aingĩ moko arĩa maarĩ arũaru nao makĩhona.
And he could do no miracle there, excepting curing a few sick by laying his hands on them.
6 Nake akĩgega nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa maagĩte wĩtĩkio. Jesũ agĩcooka agĩthiĩ akĩrutanaga itũũra gwa itũũra.
And he wondered at their unbelief. And he went through the neighboring villages teaching.
7 Agĩcooka agĩĩta arutwo arĩa ikũmi na eerĩ, akĩmatũma mathiĩ eerĩ eerĩ na akĩmahe ũhoti wa kũingata ngoma thũku.
And having called to him the twelve, he sent them out two by two, and gave them power over the unclean spirits;
8 Na akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mũtigekuuĩre kĩndũ o nakĩ rũgendo-inĩ tiga o mũtirima; na mũtigakuue mũgate, kana mondo, kana mbeeca ibeeti-inĩ cianyu.
and ordered them to take nothing for their journey, but a single staff; no bag, no bread, and in their girdle no money;
9 Ĩkĩrai iraatũ no mũtigakuue nguo cia kũgarũrĩra.
to be shod with sandals, and not to put on two coats.
10 Rĩrĩa rĩothe mwatoonya nyũmba, ikarai kuo nginya rĩrĩa mũkoima itũũra rĩu.
He said also, Whatever house you enter in any place, continue in that house, till you leave the place.
11 Na kũrĩa andũ matakamũnyiita ũgeni kana marege kũmũthikĩrĩria-rĩ, mũkiuma kuo mũkaaribariba magũrũ manyu rũkũngũ rũitĩke, rũtuĩke ũira wa kũmatuĩra ciira.”
But wheresoever they will not receive you, nor hear you, shake off the dust under your feet at your departure, as a protestation against them.
12 Nao makiumagara magĩthiĩ makĩhunjagia atĩ andũ merire.
And being departed, they publicly warned men to reform;
13 Ningĩ makĩingata ndaimono nyingĩ na magĩitĩrĩria andũ aingĩ arĩa maarĩ arũaru maguta nao makĩhona.
and expelled many demons, and cured many sick persons, anointing them with oil.
14 Mũthamaki Herode nĩaiguire ũhoro ũcio, nĩgũkorwo rĩĩtwa rĩa Jesũ nĩrĩagĩte igweta mũno. Andũ amwe moigaga atĩrĩ, “Johana Mũbatithania nĩariũkĩte kuuma kũrĩ arĩa akuũ, na nĩkĩo arĩ na hinya mũnene ũguo wa kũringa ciama.”
And King Herod heard of him, (for his name was become famous) and said, John the Immerser is raised from the dead; and therefore miracles are performed by him.
15 Angĩ nao makoiga atĩrĩ, “Ũyũ nĩ Elija.” Angĩ nao makoiga atĩrĩ, “Ũyũ nĩ mũnabii ta ũmwe wa arĩa a tene.”
Others said, It is Elijah. Others, It is a prophet like those of ancient times.
16 Nowe Herode rĩrĩa aiguire ũhoro ũcio, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Johana, mũndũ ũrĩa ndaatinithirie mũtwe-rĩ, nĩariũkĩte kuuma kũrĩ arĩa akuũ!”
But when Herod heard of him, he said, This is John whom I beheaded. He is raised from the dead.
17 Nĩgũkorwo, Herode we mwene nĩanyiitithĩtie Johana na akamũikithia njeera. Eekĩte ũguo nĩ ũndũ wa Herodia, ũrĩa warĩ mũtumia wa mũrũ wa nyina Filipu, nĩgũkorwo Herode nĩamũhikĩtie.
For Herod had caused John to be apprehended, and kept bound in prison, on account of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, whom he had himself married.
18 Nake Johana nĩeraga Herode atĩrĩ, “Ndũrĩ na rũtha kũhikia mũtumia wa mũrũ wa maitũguo.”
For John had said to Herod, It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife.
19 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Herodia agĩtuma Johana ũthũ na akĩenda kũmũũragithia. No ndangĩahotire gwĩka ũguo,
Now this roused Herodias' resentment, who would have killed John, but could not,
20 nĩgũkorwo Herode nĩetigĩrĩte Johana na akamũgitagĩra, tondũ nĩoĩ atĩ aarĩ mũndũ mũthingu na mũtheru. Herode nĩathikagĩrĩria Johana, no nĩatangĩkaga mũno amũigua; no nĩendaga mũno kũmũthikĩrĩria.
because Herod respected him, and knowing him to be a just and holy man, protected him; and did many things recommended by him, and heard him with pleasure.
21 Na rĩrĩ, mũthenya ũmwe Herodia nĩagĩire na mweke. Herode nĩarugithirie iruga inene rĩa kũririkana mũthenya wa gũciarwo gwake, nake agĩĩta anene arĩa maamũteithagia na atongoria ake a mbũtũ cia ita, na andũ arĩa maarĩ igweta kũu Galili.
At length a favorable opportunity offered, which was Herod's birthday, when he made an entertainment for the great officers of his court and army, and the persons of distinction in Galilee.
22 Na rĩrĩa mwarĩ wa Herodia aatoonyire kũu maarĩ na akĩina-rĩ, agĩkenia Herode na ageni ake arĩa meetĩtwo iruga rĩu. Mũthamaki akĩĩra mũirĩtu ũcio atĩrĩ, “Hooya o kĩrĩa gĩothe ũngĩenda na nĩngũkũhe.”
For the daughter of Herodias came in, and danced before them, and pleased Herod and his guests so much, that the king said to the young woman, Ask whatever you will, and I will give it you;
23 Akĩĩhĩta, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Kĩrĩa gĩothe ũngĩhooya nĩngũkũhe, o na angĩkorwo nĩ nuthu ya ũthamaki wakwa.”
nay, he swore to her, Whatsoever you shall ask, I will give it you, were it the half of my kingdom.
24 Mũirĩtu ũcio agĩthiĩ akĩũria nyina atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ ngwĩtia?” Nyina akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ĩtia mũtwe wa Johana Mũbatithania.”
And she withdrew, and said to her mother, What shall I ask? She answered, The head of John the Immerser.
25 O rĩmwe mũirĩtu ũcio akĩhiũha, agĩtoonya he mũthamaki, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ngwenda ũũhe o rĩu mũtwe wa Johana Mũbatithania ũrĩ thĩinĩ wa kiuga.”
Her daughter then, returning hastily to the king, made this request: I would that you give me presently in a basin, the head of John the Immerser.
26 Mũthamaki akĩigua kĩeha mũno, no tondũ wa mwĩhĩtwa wake na nĩ ũndũ wa ageni ake, ndangĩaregire gwĩka ũguo orĩtio.
And the king was much grieved; however, from a regard to his oath, and his guests, he would not refuse her,
27 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩtũma mũthigari ũmwe wa arĩa maamũrangagĩra, o hĩndĩ ĩyo akĩmwatha athiĩ arehe mũtwe wa Johana. Mũndũ ũcio agĩthiĩ njeera agĩtinia Johana mũtwe
and immediately dispatched a sentinel with orders to bring the Immerser's head. Accordingly he went, and beheaded him in the prison,
28 akĩũrehe na kiuga, akĩnengera mũirĩtu ũcio, nake akĩũnengera nyina.
and brought his hand in a basin, and presented it to the young woman; and the young woman presented it to her mother.
29 Nao arutwo a Johana maigua ũhoro ũcio, magĩũka, makĩoya mwĩrĩ wake, magĩthiĩ, makĩũthika.
When his disciples heard this, they went and brought his corpse, and laid it in a monument.
30 Atũmwo nĩmagomanire harĩ Jesũ, makĩmwĩra maũndũ marĩa mothe meekĩte, na marĩa maarutĩte andũ.
Now the Apostles, being assembled, related everything to Jesus, both what they had done, and what they had taught.
31 Na tondũ wa ũrĩa andũ aingĩ mookaga magĩthiiaga-rĩ, matingĩahotire kuona o na hĩndĩ ya kũrĩa irio, nake Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ũkai inyuĩ oiki, tũthiĩ handũ hatarĩ inegene, tũkahurũke.”
And he said to them, Come you apart into a desert place, and rest awhile; for there were so many coming and going, that they had not leisure so much as to eat.
32 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩingĩra gatarũ marĩ oiki, magĩthiĩ handũ hataarĩ andũ.
And they retired by ship to a desert place, to be by themselves.
33 Nao andũ aingĩ arĩa maamonire magĩthiĩ, makĩmamenya, magĩtengʼera na magũrũ moimĩte matũũra-inĩ mothe, magĩkinya mbere yao.
But many who saw them depart, and knew whither they were sailing, ran out of all the cities, and came together.
34 Na rĩrĩa Jesũ oimire gatarũ, akĩona andũ aingĩ, akĩmaiguĩra tha, tondũ maatariĩ ta ngʼondu itarĩ na mũrĩithi. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩambĩrĩria kũmaruta maũndũ maingĩ.
Being landed, he saw a great multitude, and had compassion on them; because they were as a flock which has no shepherd; and he taught them many things.
35 Na gwatua gũtuka, arutwo ake magĩthiĩ kũrĩ we, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Gũkũ nĩ werũ-inĩ na rĩu gũkiriĩ gũtuka.
When it grew late, his disciples came to him and said, This is a desert place, and it is now late;
36 Ĩra andũ aya mathiĩ nĩguo makinye mĩgũnda-inĩ na matũũra-inĩ marĩa me hakuhĩ makegũrĩre kĩndũ gĩa kũrĩa.”
dismiss the people, that they may go to the neighboring farms and villages, and buy themselves bread, for they have nothing to eat.
37 Nowe akĩmacookeria akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Maheei kĩndũ gĩa kũrĩa arĩ inyuĩ.” Nao makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũrenda tũthiĩ tũkagũre mĩgate ya dinari magana meerĩ tũmahe marĩe?”
He answering, said to them, Supply them yourselves. They replied, Shall we go and give two hundred denarii for bread, in order to supply them?
38 Nake akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũrĩ na mĩgate ĩigana? Thiĩi mũrore.” Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa maarorire makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Harĩ na mĩgate ĩtano, na thamaki igĩrĩ.”
He said to them, How many loaves have you? Go and see. Upon inquiry, they answered, Five and two fishes.
39 Nake Jesũ agĩathana andũ othe maikare thĩ ikundi ikundi kũu nyeki-inĩ ĩrĩa yarĩ ho nduru.
And he commanded them to make all the people recline upon the green grass in separate companies.
40 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩikara thĩ marĩ ikundi cia andũ igana na cia andũ mĩrongo ĩtano.
And they formed themselves into squares, by hundred and by fifties.
41 Nake akĩoya mĩgate ĩyo ĩtano na thamaki icio igĩrĩ, akĩrora na igũrũ, agĩcookia ngaatho na akĩenyũranga mĩgate ĩyo. Agĩcooka akĩmĩnengera arutwo ake mahe andũ. Ningĩ akĩoya thamaki icio igĩrĩ akĩmagayania othe.
Then Jesus taking the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, blessed and broke the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before the multitude. He distributed also the two fishes among them all.
42 Nao othe makĩrĩa makĩhũũna,
When they all had eat and were satisfied,
43 nao arutwo makĩũngania cienyũ cia mĩgate na cia thamaki iria ciatigarĩte makĩiyũria ciondo ikũmi na igĩrĩ.
they carried off twelve baskets full of the fragments of the bread and the fishes.
44 Mũigana wa arũme arĩa othe maarĩire irio icio maarĩ ngiri ithano.
Now they who had eat of the loaves, were five thousand men.
45 Na hĩndĩ o ĩyo Jesũ akĩĩra arutwo ake matoonye gatarũ mathiiage mbere yake makinye Bethisaida, mũira wa oigĩre kĩrĩndĩ ũhoro.
And immediately he obliged his disciples to embark, and pass over before, toward Bethsaida, while he dismissed the people.
46 Thuutha wa kũmoigĩra ũhoro, akĩambata kĩrĩma-inĩ agĩthiĩ kũhooya.
And having sent them away, he retired to a mountain to pray.
47 Na gũgĩkinya hwaĩ-inĩ, gatarũ kaarĩ gatagatĩ ka iria, nake Jesũ aarĩ thĩ nyũmũ arĩ wiki.
In the evening, the bark being in the midst of the sea, and he alone on the land,
48 Nake akĩona arutwo makĩĩgũmĩra gũtwara gatarũ, tondũ rũhuho rwerekeire na kũrĩa moimaga. Na rĩrĩ, ta thaa kenda cia ũtukũ, Jesũ agĩthiĩ kũrĩ o agereire maaĩ igũrũ. Nake aarĩ o hakuhĩ kũmahĩtũka,
he observed them toiling at the oar, for the wind was against them: and about the fourth watch of the night, he went to them, walking on the water. and seemed intending to pass by them.
49 no-o mamuona agereire maaĩ igũrũ magĩĩciiria nĩ ngoma moonaga. Magĩkaya
When they saw him walking on the sea, they thought it was an apparition, and cried out.
50 tondũ othe nĩmamuonire na magĩĩtigĩra mũno. O hĩndĩ ĩyo Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ũmĩrĩriai! Nĩ niĩ. Tigai gwĩtigĩra.”
For they all saw him, and were terrified; but he immediately spoke to them, saying, Take courage; it is I; be not afraid.
51 Agĩcooka agĩtoonya gatarũ kau maarĩ, naruo rũhuho rũgĩtuĩka. Nao makĩgega mũno,
And having gone aboard to them, the wind ceased, which struck them still more with astonishment and admiration.
52 tondũ matiataũkĩirwo nĩ ũhoro wa mĩgate ĩyo; ngoro ciao ciarĩ o nyũmũ.
for their minds were so stupefied, that they never reflected upon the loaves.
53 Na maarĩkia kũringa mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ, magĩkinya Genesareti, makĩoha gatarũ kao hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia iria.
When they had crossed, they came to the territory of Gennesaret, where they landed.
54 Maarĩkia kuuma gatarũ-inĩ, o rĩmwe andũ makĩmenya Jesũ.
And being come ashore, the people knew him,
55 Magĩtuĩkania bũrũri-inĩ ũcio wothe magakuuaga andũ arĩa maarĩ arũaru na ibarĩ, makĩmatwaraga kũrĩa guothe maiguaga atĩ nĩkuo arĩ.
and ran through all that country, carrying the sick on couches, to every place where they heard he was.
56 Na kũrĩa guothe aathiiaga, mĩciĩ-inĩ, na tũtũũra-inĩ o na kana mĩgũnda-inĩ, o maigaga arĩa arũaru ndũnyũ-inĩ, na makamũthaitha ametĩkĩrie naarĩ mahutie gĩcũrĩ kĩa nguo yake, na arĩa othe maamũhutirie makĩhona.
And whatever village, or city, or town he entered, they laid the diseased in the streets, and besought him, that they might touch, were it but a tuft of his mantle; and whosoever touched him, were healed.
