< Mathayo 4 >
1 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Jesũ nĩatongoririo nĩ Roho agĩtwarwo werũ-inĩ akagerio nĩ mũcukani.
Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
2 Na aniina mĩthenya mĩrongo ĩna, ũtukũ na mũthenya, ehingĩte kũrĩa irio-rĩ, akĩigua ahũtiĩ.
And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was hungry afterward.
3 Nake mũgerania akĩmũkora, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo wee nĩwe Mũrũ wa Ngai-rĩ, ĩra mahiga maya matuĩke mĩgate.”
And the tempter came and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread."
4 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: ‘To mũgate wiki ũngĩtũũria mũndũ muoyo, no nĩ kiugo gĩothe kĩrĩa kiumaga kanua ka Ngai.’”
But he answered and said, "It is written, 'Humankind cannot live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.'"
5 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũcukani akĩmũtwara itũũra rĩrĩa itheru, akĩmũrũgamia gathũrũmũndũ ka hekarũ,
Then the devil took him into the holy city. He set him on the pinnacle of the temple,
6 akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo wee nĩwe Mũrũ wa Ngai-rĩ, wĩgũithie thĩ. Nĩgũkorwo kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: “‘Nĩagaatha araika ake nĩ ũndũ waku, nao nĩmagakwanĩrĩria na moko mao, nĩguo ndũkanahĩngwo kũgũrũ nĩ ihiga.’”
and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written, 'He will put his angels in charge of you.' and, 'In their hands they will lift you up, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.'"
7 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ningĩ nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: ‘Ndũkanagerie Mwathani Ngai waku.’”
Jesus said to him, "Again, it is written, 'Do not test the Lord, your God.'"
8 Ningĩ mũcukani akĩmũtwara kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩraaya mũno, akĩmuonia mothamaki mothe ma thĩ na riiri wamo.
Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory.
9 Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Maũndũ maya mothe nĩngũkũhe, ũngĩĩtĩkĩra kũnyinamĩrĩra ũũhooe.”
And he said to him, "I will give you all of these things, if you will fall down and worship me."
10 Nake Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ Shaitani ndiga! Nĩgũkorwo nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: ‘Hooyaga Mwathani Ngai waku, na ũmũtungatagĩre o we wiki.’”
Then Jesus said to him, "Go away, Satan. For it is written, 'You are to worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.'"
11 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũcukani akĩmũtiga, nao araika magĩũka makĩmũtungatĩra.
Then the devil left him, and look, angels came and served him.
12 Na rĩrĩa Jesũ aiguire atĩ Johana nĩaikĩtio njeera-rĩ, agĩthiĩ Galili.
Now when he heard that John was delivered up, he withdrew into Galilee.
13 Akiuma Nazarethi, agĩthiĩ gũtũũra Kaperinaumu. Itũũra rĩu rĩarĩ hakuhĩ na iria, bũrũri-inĩ wa Zebuluni na Nafitali.
And leaving Nazareth, he came and lived in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali,
14 Ũndũ ũcio wekĩkire nĩguo ũhoro ũrĩa waarĩtio na kanua ka mũnabii Isaia ũhinge, rĩrĩa oigire atĩrĩ:
that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
15 “Bũrũri wa Zebuluni, o na bũrũri wa Nafitali, njĩra ya gũthiĩ iria-inĩ, gũikũrũkania na Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani, kũu gwĩtagwo Galili-kwa-Ndũrĩrĩ:
"The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, toward the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations.
16 andũ arĩa matũũraga nduma-inĩ nĩmonete ũtheri mũnene; nao arĩa matũũraga bũrũri ũrĩ kĩĩruru gĩa gĩkuũ-rĩ, nĩmarĩirwo nĩ ũtheri.”
The people sitting in darkness have seen a great light, and those living in the land and shadow of death, on them a light has dawned."
17 Kuuma hĩndĩ ĩyo Jesũ akĩambĩrĩria kũhunjia ũhoro akiugaga atĩrĩ, “Mwĩrirei, nĩgũkorwo ũthamaki wa igũrũ nĩũkuhĩrĩirie.”
From that time on, Jesus began to preach and say, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near."
18 Rĩrĩa Jesũ aaceeraga hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia Iria rĩa Galili, nĩonire andũ eerĩ a nyina ũmwe, nao nĩ Simoni ũrĩa wetagwo Petero, na mũrũ wa nyina Anderea. Maikagia neti iria-inĩ, nĩgũkorwo maarĩ ategi a thamaki.
And walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers: Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew, his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.
19 Nake Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Ũkai, mũnũmĩrĩre, na nĩngũmũtua ategi a andũ.”
And he said to them, "Come, follow me, and I will make you fishers of people."
20 Nao o rĩmwe magĩtiganĩria neti ciao, makĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
And they immediately left their nets and followed him.
21 Na aathiathia akĩona andũ angĩ eerĩ a nyina ũmwe, Jakubu mũrũ wa Zebedi, na mũrũ wa nyina Johana. Maarĩ thĩinĩ wa gatarũ hamwe na ithe wao Zebedi makĩhaarĩria neti ciao. Nake Jesũ akĩmeeta,
Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets, and he called them.
22 na o rĩmwe magĩtiganĩria gatarũ na magĩtiga ithe wao, makĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
And they immediately left the boat and their father, and followed him.
23 No rĩrĩ, Jesũ nĩathiire Galili guothe, akĩrutanaga thunagogi-inĩ ciao, akĩhunjagia Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa ũthamaki wa Ngai, na akĩhonagia andũ mĩrimũ yothe na ndwari ciothe iria maarĩ nacio.
And Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the Good News of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people.
24 Nayo ngumo yake ĩkĩhunjio bũrũri wothe wa Suriata, nao andũ makĩmũrehera andũ arĩa othe maarĩ arũaru ndwari cia mĩthemba mĩingĩ, na arĩa maarĩ na ruo rũingĩ, na arĩa maarĩ na ndaimono, na arĩa maarĩ na mũrimũ wa kũgũũaga, o na arĩa maarĩ na mũrimũ wa gũkua ciĩga, nake akĩmahonia othe.
And the report about him went out into all Syria, and they brought to him all who were sick, afflicted with various diseases and torments, possessed with demons, and epileptics, and paralytics; and he healed them.
25 Nao andũ aingĩ mũno kuuma Galili, na Dekapoli, na Jerusalemu, na Judea, na mũrĩmo ũũrĩa ũngĩ wa Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani makĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
And large crowds from Galilee, and Decapolis, and Jerusalem, and Judea, and from beyond the Jordan followed him.
