Mariko 7
1 Na rĩrĩ, Afarisai na arutani amwe a watho arĩa moimĩte Jerusalemu makĩũngana harĩ Jesũ na
And there are gathered together unto him the Pharisees, and certain of the scribes, which had come from Jerusalem,
2 makĩona arutwo ake amwe makĩrĩa irio na moko maarĩ na thaahu, ũguo nĩ ta kuuga, matethambĩte moko.
and had seen that some of his disciples ate their bread with defiled, that is, unwashen, hands.
3 (Afarisai na Ayahudi othe matirĩĩaga irio matethambĩte moko mao wega kũringana na kĩrĩra gĩa athuuri.
For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, except they wash their hands diligently, eat not, holding the tradition of the elders:
4 Rĩrĩa moima ndũnyũ matingĩrĩa matambĩte gwĩthamba. Na nĩ marũmagia irĩra ingĩ, ta gũthambia ikombe, na nyũngũ o na mbirika).
and [when they come] from the marketplace, except they wash themselves, they eat not: and many other things there be, which they have received to hold, washings of cups, and pots, and brasen vessels.
5 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Afarisai na Arutani a watho makĩũria Jesũ atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmaga arutwo aku mage gũtũũra kũringana na irĩra cia athuuri, na makarĩĩaga irio na moko marĩ na thaahu?”
And the Pharisees and the scribes ask him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat their bread with defiled hands?
6 Nake Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Isaia aaririe ma rĩrĩa aarathire ũhoro wanyu, inyuĩ hinga ici; o ta ũrĩa kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “‘Andũ aya maaheaga gĩtĩĩo na mĩromo, no ngoro ciao ikoragwo irĩ kũraya na niĩ.
And he said unto them, Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, But their heart is far from me.
7 Nao maahooyaga o tũhũ; morutani marĩa marutanaga no mawatho ma andũ.’
But in vain do they worship me, Teaching [as their] doctrines the precepts of men.
8 Mũtiganĩirie maathani ma Ngai, mũkarũmia irĩra cia andũ.”
Ye leave the commandment of God, and hold fast the tradition of men.
9 Agĩcooka akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ nĩmũgĩĩte na njĩra njega ya gũtiganĩria maathani ma Ngai atĩ nĩguo mũrũmie irĩra cianyu ene!
And he said unto them, Full well do ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your tradition.
10 Nĩgũkorwo Musa oigire atĩrĩ, ‘Tĩĩa thoguo na nyũkwa,’ na, ‘Ũrĩa wothe ũkaaruma ithe kana nyina no nginya ooragwo.’
For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, He that speaketh evil of father or mother, let him die the death:
11 No inyuĩ muugaga atĩ mũndũ angĩĩra ithe kana nyina atĩrĩ, ‘Kĩrĩa ingĩagũteithia nakĩo nĩ Korubani’ (ũguo nĩ kuuga, nĩ kĩheo kĩamũrĩre Ngai),
but ye say, If a man shall say to his father or his mother, That wherewith thou mightest have been profited by me is Corban, that is to say, Given [to God];
12 na mũticookaga kũmwĩtĩkĩria ekĩre ithe kana nyina ũndũ.
ye no longer suffer him to do aught for his father or his mother;
13 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũkaagithia kiugo kĩa Ngai kĩene na ũndũ wa kĩrĩra kĩanyu kĩrĩa mũthiiaga mũgĩtiganagĩra. Na nĩmwĩkaga maũndũ maingĩ ta macio.”
making void the word of God by your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things ye do.
14 O rĩngĩ Jesũ agĩĩta kĩrĩndĩ harĩ we agĩkĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ andũ aya othe, thikĩrĩriai na mũigue.
And he called to him the multitude again, and said unto them, Hear me all of you, and understand:
15 Gũtirĩ kĩndũ kĩrĩ nja ya mũndũ kĩngĩmũgwatia ‘thaahu’ nĩ ũndũ wa gũtoonya thĩinĩ wake. No rĩrĩ, kĩrĩa kiumaga thĩinĩ wa mũndũ nĩkĩo kĩmũgwatagia ‘thaahu’.”
there is nothing from without the man, that going into him can defile him: but the things which proceed out of the man are those that defile the man.
16 (Aakorwo mũndũ arĩ na matũ ma kũigua, nĩakĩigue).
17 Thuutha wa gũtigana na kĩrĩndĩ na gũtoonya nyũmba, arutwo ake makĩmũũria ũhoro wa ngerekano ĩyo.
And when he was entered into the house from the multitude, his disciples asked of him the parable.
18 Nake Jesũ akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “O na inyuĩ mũtirĩ mũrataũkĩrwo o na rĩu? Kaĩ mũtooĩ atĩ gũtirĩ kĩndũ gĩtoonyaga thĩinĩ wa mũndũ kuuma na nja kĩngĩmũgwatia thaahu?
And he saith unto them, Are ye so without understanding also? Perceive ye not, that whatsoever from without goeth into the man, [it] cannot defile him;
19 Nĩgũkorwo gĩtitoonyaga ngoro-inĩ yake, no gĩtoonyaga nda yake gĩgacooka gĩkoima mwĩrĩ-inĩ wake.” (Akiuga ũguo-rĩ, Jesũ nĩgũtua aatuaga atĩ irio ciothe itirĩ thaahu).
because it goeth not into his heart, but into his belly, and goeth out into the draught? [This he said], making all meats clean.
20 Agĩthiĩ na mbere na kwaria, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Kĩrĩa kiumaga thĩinĩ wa mũndũ nĩkĩo kĩmũgwatagia thaahu.
And he said, That which proceedeth out of the man, that defileth the man.
21 Nĩgũkorwo ngoro-inĩ cia andũ nĩkuo kuumaga meciiria mooru, ũhũũri maraya, na ũici, na ũragani, na ũtharia,
For from within, out of the heart of men, evil thoughts proceed, fornications, thefts, murders, adulteries,
22 na ũkoroku, na rũmena, na maheeni, na ũũra-thoni, na ũiru, na njambanio, na mwĩtĩĩo, o na ũrimũ.
covetings, wickednesses, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, railing, pride, foolishness:
23 Maũru maya mothe moimaga thĩinĩ wa mũndũ na makamũgwatia thaahu.”
all these evil things proceed from within, and defile the man.
24 Nake Jesũ akiuma kũu agĩthiĩ gũkuhĩ na Turo. Agĩtoonya nyũmba ĩmwe na ndeendaga mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ amenye atĩ arĩ kũu; no ndangĩahotire kwĩhitha.
And from thence he arose, and went away into the borders of Tyre and Sidon. And he entered into a house, and would have no man know it: and he could not be hid.
25 Na rĩrĩ, mũtumia warĩ na kairĩtu kaarĩ na ngoma thũku rĩrĩa aiguire ũhoro wake, agĩũka akĩĩgũithia thĩ magũrũ-inĩ make.
But straightway a woman, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, having heard of him, came and fell down at his feet.
26 Mũtumia ũcio aarĩ Mũyunani, waciarĩirwo Foinike ya Suriata. Nake agĩthaitha Jesũ aingate ngoma ĩyo thũku yume thĩinĩ wa kairĩtu gake.
Now the woman was a Greek, a Syrophoenician by race. And she besought him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter.
27 Nake Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Reke ciana ciambe irĩe ihũũne, nĩgũkorwo ti wega kuoya mĩgate ya ciana na kũmĩikĩria ngui.”
And he said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children’s bread and cast it to the dogs.
28 Nake mũtumia ũcio akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Noguo Mwathani, no o na ngui irĩ rungu rwa metha nĩ irĩĩaga rũitĩki rũrĩa rũitagwo nĩ ciana.”
But she answered and saith unto him, Yea, Lord: even the dogs under the table eat of the children’s crumbs.
29 Jesũ agĩcooka akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo wacookia-rĩ, wĩthiĩre; ndaimono nĩyoima thĩinĩ wa mwarĩguo.”
And he said unto her, For this saying go thy way; the devil is gone out of thy daughter.
30 Mũtumia ũcio akĩinũka mũciĩ agĩkora kaana gake gakomete ũrĩrĩ-inĩ na ndaimono ĩrĩkĩtie gũthiĩ.
And she went away unto her house, and found the child laid upon the bed, and the devil gone out.
31 Ningĩ Jesũ akiuma kũu gũkuhĩ na Turo agĩtuĩkanĩria Sidoni, agĩikũrũka nginya iria-inĩ rĩa Galili, agĩtoonya bũrũri wa Dekapoli.
And again he went out from the borders of Tyre, and came through Sidon unto the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the borders of Decapolis.
32 Arĩ kũu andũ amwe makĩmũrehere mũndũ ũtaiguaga na ũtaaragia, makĩmũthaitha amũigĩrĩre guoko.
And they bring unto him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech; and they beseech him to lay his hand upon him.
33 Na thuutha wa kũmũtwara handũ keheri-inĩ, haraaya na kĩrĩndĩ, Jesũ agĩtoonyia ciara ciake matũ ma mũndũ ũcio. Agĩcooka agĩtua mata na akĩhutia rũrĩmĩ rwa mũndũ ũcio namo.
And he took him aside from the multitude privately, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spat, and touched his tongue;
34 Akĩrora na igũrũ, akĩhũmũka na hinya, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Efatha!” (ũguo nĩ kuuga, “Hingũka!”).
and looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.
35 Aarĩkia kuuga ũguo matũ ma mũndũ ũcio makĩhingũka na rũrĩmĩ rwake rũkĩregera akĩambĩrĩria kwaria o wega.
And his ears were opened, and the bond of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plain.
36 Nake Jesũ akĩmaatha matikeere mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ. No ũrĩa akĩragĩrĩria kũmakaania, noguo makĩragĩrĩria kwaria mũno ũhoro ũcio.
And he charged them that they should tell no man: but the more he charged them, so much the more a great deal they published it.
37 Nao andũ makĩgega mũno makĩria, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩekĩte maũndũ mothe wega. O na agatũmaga andũ arĩa mataiguaga maigue na arĩa mataaragia maarie.”
And they were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well: he maketh even the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.
