Mariko 8
1 Na rĩrĩ, matukũ-inĩ macio kĩrĩndĩ kĩingĩ gĩkĩũngana rĩngĩ. Na tondũ gĩtiarĩ na kĩndũ gĩa kũrĩa-rĩ, Jesũ agĩĩta arutwo ake moke harĩ we, akĩmeera atĩrĩ,
In those days the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples, and saith to them,
2 “Nĩndĩraiguĩra andũ aya tha Nĩgũkorwo makoretwo hamwe na niĩ rĩu mĩthenya ĩtatũ na matirĩ na kĩndũ gĩa kũrĩa.
I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to eat:
3 Ingĩmeera mainũke mahũũtiĩ mekũringĩkĩra njĩra, tondũ amwe ao moimĩte kũraya.”
And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint by the way: for some of them came from a distance.
4 Nao arutwo makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ angĩruta irio cia kũmahũũnia kũ gũkũ werũ-inĩ ũyũ?”
And his disciples answered him, From whence can a man satisfy these [men] with bread here in the wilderness?
5 Jesũ akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũrĩ na mĩgate ĩigana?” Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Tũrĩ na mĩgate mũgwanja.”
And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.
6 Akĩĩra kĩrĩndĩ gĩikare thĩ. Nake akĩoya mĩgate ĩyo mũgwanja, na aarĩkia gũcookia ngaatho akĩenyũranga mĩgate ĩyo, akĩmĩnengera arutwo ake mahe andũ, nao magĩĩka o ũguo.
And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground: and he took the seven loaves, and gave thanks, and broke, and gave to his disciples to set before [them]; and they set [them] before the people.
7 O na nĩ maarĩ na tũthamaki tũnini tũtarĩ tũingĩ; agĩcookia ngaatho nĩ ũndũ watuo, na akĩĩra arutwo magaĩre andũ.
And they had a few small fishes: and he blessed, and commanded to set them also before [them].
8 Nao makĩrĩa makĩhũũna. Thuutha ũcio arutwo makĩũngania cienyũ iria ciatigarĩte, ikĩiyũra ciondo mũgwanja.
So they ate, and were satisfied: and they took up of the fragments that were left, seven baskets.
9 Andũ arũme arĩa maarĩire maarĩ ta ngiri inya. Na aarĩkia kũmeera mathiĩ,
And they that had eaten were about four thousand: and he dismissed them.
10 agĩtoonya gatarũ me na arutwo ake, magĩthiĩ bũrũri wa Dalumanutha.
And forthwith he entered into a boat with his disciples, and came into the parts of Dalmanutha.
11 Nao Afarisai magĩũka na makĩambĩrĩria kũũria Jesũ ciũria. Makĩmwĩra aringe kĩama kuuma igũrũ no nĩkũmũgeria maamũgeragia.
And the Pharisees came forth, and began to question with him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, tempting him.
12 Nake akĩhũmũka ihũmũka inene, akĩũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩkĩ gĩgũtũma rũciaro rũrũ rũũrie rũringĩrwo kĩama? Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma gũtirĩ kĩama rũkũringĩrwo.”
And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and saith, Why doth this generation seek for a sign? Verily I say to you, There shall no sign be given to this generation.
13 Agĩcooka akĩmatiga, agĩtoonya gatarũ akĩringa mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ.
And he left them, and entering into the boat again, departed to the other side.
14 Na rĩrĩ, arutwo nĩmariganĩirwo nĩ gũkuua mĩgate, tiga o mũgate ũmwe marĩ naguo gatarũ-inĩ.
Now [the disciples] had forgotten to take bread, neither had they in the boat with them more than one loaf.
15 Nake Jesũ akĩmataara akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mwĩmenyererei. Mwĩhũgagei ndawa ya kũimbia mĩgate ya Afarisai na ya Herode.”
And he charged them saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and [of] the leaven of Herod.
16 Nao makĩaranĩria ũhoro ũcio mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ, makĩĩrana atĩrĩ, “Aratwĩra ũguo tondũ tũtirĩ na mĩgate.”
And they reasoned among themselves, saying, [It is] because we have no bread.
17 Jesũ aamenya ũrĩa meeranaga akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ kĩratũma mwaranĩrie ũhoro wa kwaga mĩgate? Nginya rĩu mũtirĩ mũrataũkĩrwo o na kana mũkamenya? Nĩ kũũmia mũũmĩtie ngoro cianyu?
And when Jesus knew [it], he saith to them, Why reason ye, because ye have no bread? perceive ye not yet, neither understand? have ye your heart yet hardened?
18 Anga mũrĩ na maitho na mũtionaga, na mũrĩ na matũ na mũtiiguaga? Kaĩ mũtararirikana?
Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember?
19 Rĩrĩa ndenyũrangĩire andũ arĩa ngiri ithano mĩgate ĩrĩa ĩtano-rĩ, nĩ ciondo ciigana muonganirie ciiyũrĩte cienyũ cia mĩgate?” Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ciarĩ ciondo ikũmi na igĩrĩ.”
When I divided the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? They say to him, Twelve.
20 “Na rĩrĩa ndenyũrangĩire andũ arĩa ngiri inya mĩgate ĩrĩa mũgwanja-rĩ, nĩ ciondo ciigana muonganirie ciiyũrĩte cienyũ cia mĩgate?” Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ciarĩ ciondo mũgwanja.”
And when the seven among four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? And they said, Seven.
21 Akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ mũtarĩ mũrataũkĩrwo nĩ ũhoro nginya rĩu?”
And he said to them, How is it that ye do not understand?
22 Na maakinya Bethisaida, andũ amwe makĩmũrehera mũndũ warĩ mũtumumu, na magĩthaitha Jesũ amũhutie.
And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man to him, and besought him to touch him.
23 Akĩnyiita mũndũ ũcio mũtumumu guoko, akĩmuumia na nja ya itũũra. Na aarĩkia kũmũtuĩra mata maitho na kũmũigĩrĩra moko, Jesũ akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kũrĩ kĩndũ ũroona?”
And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw aught.
24 Nake agĩtiira maitho, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩndĩrona andũ; no ngoona mahaana ta mĩtĩ magĩthiĩ.”
And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees walking.
25 O rĩngĩ Jesũ akĩigĩrĩra mũndũ ũcio moko maitho. Hĩndĩ ĩyo maitho make makĩhingũka, agĩcooka kuona na akĩona indo ciothe wega.
After that, he put [his] hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.
26 Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Inũka, na ndũgatoonye itũũra-inĩ.”
And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell [it] to any in the town.
27 Jesũ na arutwo ake magĩthiĩ na mbere o nginya tũtũũra-inĩ tũrĩa twarigiicĩirie Kaisarea-Filipi. Na me njĩra-inĩ akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Andũ moigaga niĩ nĩ niĩ ũ?”
And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Cesarea Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying to them, Who do men say that I am?
28 Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Amwe moigaga wee nĩwe Johana Mũbatithania; angĩ makoiga wee nĩwe Elija; o na angĩ moigaga wee ũrĩ ũmwe wa anabii.”
And they answered, John the Baptist: but some [say], Elijah; and others, One of the prophets,
29 Nake akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ na inyuĩ muugaga atĩa? Muugaga niĩ nĩ niĩ ũ?” Petero akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Wee nĩwe Kristũ.”
And he saith to them, But who say ye that I am? And Peter answereth and saith to him, Thou art the Christ.
30 Nake Jesũ akĩmakaania matikeere mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ ũhoro wake.
And he charged them that they should tell no man of him.
31 Ningĩ Jesũ akĩambĩrĩria kũmaruta atĩ Mũrũ wa Mũndũ no nginya one mathĩĩna maingĩ na aregwo nĩ athuuri, na athĩnjĩri-Ngai arĩa anene o na arutani a watho, na atĩ no nginya ooragwo, na thuutha wa mĩthenya ĩtatũ ariũke.
And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, and the chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
32 Aaririe ũhoro ũcio atekũhitha, nake Petero akĩmũtwara keheri-inĩ, akĩambĩrĩria kũmũkaania.
And he spoke that saying openly. And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him.
33 No Jesũ akĩĩhũgũra akĩrora arutwo ake, na agĩkũũma Petero, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Cooka thuutha wakwa, Shaitani! Wee ndwĩciiragia maũndũ moimĩte kũrĩ Ngai, tiga o maũndũ marĩa moimĩte kũrĩ andũ.”
But when he had turned about, and looked on his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou savorest not the things that are of God, but the things that are of men.
34 Agĩcooka agĩĩta kĩrĩndĩ hamwe na arutwo ake moke harĩ we, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ o wothe ũngĩenda kũnũmĩrĩra, no nginya eerege we mwene, na akuue mũtharaba wake anũmĩrĩre.
And when he had called the people [to him] with his disciples also, he said to them, Whoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
35 Nĩgũkorwo ũrĩa wothe wendaga kũhonokia muoyo wake nĩ kũũrwo akoorwo nĩguo, no ũrĩa wothe ũkoorwo nĩ muoyo wake nĩ ũndũ wakwa na nĩ ũndũ wa Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega, nĩakaũhonokia.
For whoever will save his life, shall lose it; but whoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.
36 Mũndũ angĩĩguna nakĩ angĩĩgwatĩra thĩ yothe, no orwo nĩ muoyo wake?
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul:
37 Kana nĩ kĩĩ mũndũ angĩkũũrania na muoyo wake?
Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?
38 Mũndũ o wothe ũngĩconoka nĩ ũndũ wakwa na aconoke nĩ ũndũ wa ciugo ciakwa hĩndĩ ĩno ya rũciaro rũrũ rwa ũtharia na rwa mehia, o nake Mũrũ wa Mũndũ nĩakamũconokera rĩrĩa agaacooka arĩ na riiri wa Ithe, arĩ na araika arĩa atheru.”
Whoever therefore shall be ashamed of me, and of my words, in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also will the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.
