< Mathayo 4 >

1 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Jesũ nĩatongoririo nĩ Roho agĩtwarwo werũ-inĩ akagerio nĩ mũcukani.
Then Yeshua 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.
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.”
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, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of God’s mouth.’”
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 command his angels concerning you,’ and, ‘On their hands they will bear you up, so that you don’t dash your foot against a stone.’”
7 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ningĩ nĩ kwandĩkĩtwo atĩrĩ: ‘Ndũkanagerie Mwathani Ngai waku.’”
Yeshua said to him, “Again, it is written, ‘You shall 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 an exceedingly high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.
9 Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Maũndũ maya mothe nĩngũkũhe, ũngĩĩtĩkĩra kũnyinamĩrĩra ũũhooe.”
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 Yeshua said to him, “Get behind me, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve him only.’”
11 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũcukani akĩmũtiga, nao araika magĩũka makĩmũtungatĩra.
Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and served him.
12 Na rĩrĩa Jesũ aiguire atĩ Johana nĩaikĩtio njeera-rĩ, agĩthiĩ Galili.
Now when Yeshua heard that Yochanan 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.
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, towards the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles,
16 andũ arĩa matũũraga nduma-inĩ nĩmonete ũtheri mũnene; nao arĩa matũũraga bũrũri ũrĩ kĩĩruru gĩa gĩkuũ-rĩ, nĩmarĩirwo nĩ ũtheri.”
the people who sat in darkness saw a great light; to those who sat in the region and shadow of death, to them light has dawned.”
17 Kuuma hĩndĩ ĩyo Jesũ akĩambĩrĩria kũhunjia ũhoro akiugaga atĩrĩ, “Mwĩrirei, nĩgũkorwo ũthamaki wa igũrũ nĩũkuhĩrĩirie.”
From that time, Yeshua began to proclaim, and to say, “Repent! For the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.”
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.
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.”
He said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers for men.”
20 Nao o rĩmwe magĩtiganĩria neti ciao, makĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
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, Jacob the son of Zebedee, and Yochanan his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. He called them.
22 na o rĩmwe magĩtiganĩria gatarũ na magĩtiga ithe wao, makĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
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.
Yeshua went about in all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness amongst 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.
The report about him went out into all Syria. They brought to him all who were sick, afflicted with various diseases and torments, possessed with demons, 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.
Great multitudes from Galilee, Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and from beyond the Jordan followed him.
