< Mathayo 9 >

1 Nake agĩtoonya gatarũ, akĩringa iria, agĩkinya itũũra rĩa kwao.
And he entered into a ship, and passed over, and came into his own city.
2 Andũ amwe makĩmũrehera mũndũ warĩ na mũrimũ wa gũkua ciĩga, akuuĩtwo na kĩbarĩ. Rĩrĩa Jesũ oonire wĩtĩkio wao, akĩĩra mũndũ ũcio wakuĩte ciĩga atĩrĩ, “Mũriũ, wĩyũmĩrĩrie, nĩwarekerwo mehia maku.”
And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; your sins be forgiven you.
3 Nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo, arutani amwe a watho makĩĩra na ngoro atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ nĩaruma Ngai!”
And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemes.
4 Jesũ aamenya ũrĩa meeciiragia, akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũreciiria ũũru ngoro-inĩ cianyu nĩkĩ?
And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think all of you evil in your hearts?
5 Nĩ ũndũ ũrĩkũ mũhũthũ: nĩ kwĩra mũndũ, ‘Nĩwarekerwo mehia maku,’ kana kũmwĩra, ‘Ũkĩra wĩtware?’
For whether is easier, to say, Your sins be forgiven you; or to say, Arise, and walk?
6 No nĩgeetha mũmenye atĩ Mũrũ wa Mũndũ arĩ na ũhoti gũkũ thĩ wa kũrekanĩra mehia-rĩ ….” Na o hĩndĩ ĩyo akĩĩra mũndũ ũcio wakuĩte ciĩga atĩrĩ, “Ũkĩra, oya kĩbarĩ gĩaku ũinũke mũciĩ.”
But that all of you may know that the Son of man has power on earth to forgive sins, (then says he to the sick of the palsy, ) Arise, take up your bed, and go unto your house.
7 Nake mũndũ ũcio agĩũkĩra, akĩinũka mũciĩ.
And he arose, and departed to his house.
8 Rĩrĩa kĩrĩndĩ kĩu kĩonire ũguo, gĩkĩmaka na gĩkĩgooca Ngai, ũrĩa waheete andũ ũhoti ta ũcio.
But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled, and glorified God, which had given such power unto men.
9 Na rĩrĩa Jesũ oimaga kũu, akĩona mũndũ wetagwo Mathayo aikarĩte harĩa heetagĩrio mbeeca cia igooti. Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nũmĩrĩra,” nake Mathayo agĩũkĩra, akĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he says unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him.
10 Na rĩrĩa Jesũ aarĩ kwa Mathayo mũciĩ makĩrĩa irio cia hwaĩ-inĩ, etia mbeeca cia igooti aingĩ na andũ ehia magĩũka kũrĩanĩra hamwe nake na arutwo ake.
And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at food in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples.
11 Rĩrĩa Afarisai moonire ũguo, makĩũria arutwo ake atĩrĩ, “Mũrutani wanyu arĩĩanagĩra na etia mbeeca cia igooti na andũ ehia nĩkĩ?”
And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why eats your Master with publicans and sinners?
12 Jesũ aigua ũguo, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Andũ arĩa agima mĩĩrĩ ti o mabataragio nĩ ndagĩtarĩ, no nĩ arĩa arũaru.
But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.
13 No rĩrĩ, thiĩi mũkeerute ũrĩa ciugo ici ciugĩte: ‘Kũiguanĩra tha nĩkuo nyendaga, no ti magongona.’ Nĩgũkorwo niĩ ndiokire gũcaria arĩa athingu, no ndokire nĩ ũndũ wa arĩa ehia.”
But go all of you and learn what that means, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
14 Hĩndĩ ĩyo arutwo a Johana magĩũka kũrĩ we makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ithuĩ na Afarisai nĩtwĩhingaga kũrĩa, no nĩ kĩĩ gĩtũmaga arutwo aku mage kwĩhinga kũrĩa irio?”
Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples fast not?
15 Nake Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Ageni a mũhikania mangĩhota atĩa kũigua kĩeha rĩrĩa mũhikania arĩ hamwe nao? Ihinda nĩrĩgakinya rĩrĩa mũhikania akeeherio kũrĩ o; hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩguo makeehinga kũrĩa irio.
And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bride-chamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.
16 “Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũtumagĩrĩra nguo ngũrũ kĩraka kĩa nguo njerũ, nĩgũkorwo kĩraka kĩu no kĩguucie nguo ĩyo gĩtũme ĩtarũke makĩria.
No man puts a piece of new cloth unto an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up takes from the garment, and the rent is made worse.
17 Ningĩ andũ matiĩkagĩra ndibei ya mũhihano mondo-inĩ ngũrũ. Mangĩĩka ũguo, mondo icio no itarũke, nayo ndibei ĩitĩke, na mondo icio cia ndibei cianangĩke o biũ. No andũ mekagĩra ndibei ya mũhihano mondo-inĩ njerũ, nacio cierĩ igaikara irĩ njega.”
Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runs out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.
18 Na rĩrĩa aaragia maũndũ macio, hagĩũka mũndũ warĩ mũnene, akĩmũturĩria ndu, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũirĩtu wakwa no hĩndĩ aakua; no ũka ũkamũigĩrĩre guoko, na nĩekũriũka.”
While he spoke these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay your hand upon her, and she shall live.
19 Nake Jesũ agĩũkĩra, agĩthiĩ nake, arĩ na arutwo ake.
And Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples.
20 O hĩndĩ ĩyo mũtumia watũire oiraga thakame mĩaka ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ agĩũka na thuutha wa Jesũ, akĩhutia gĩcũrĩ kĩa nguo yake.
And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment:
21 Tondũ eĩĩraga atĩrĩ, “Ingĩhutia o nguo yake, no hone.”
For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole.
22 Nake Jesũ akĩĩhũgũra, akĩmuona, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mwarĩ ũyũ, wĩyũmĩrĩrie gwĩtĩkia gwaku nĩkuo gwatũma ũhone.” Nake mũtumia ũcio akĩhonio o hĩndĩ ĩyo.
But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; your faith has made you whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.
23 Na rĩrĩa Jesũ aatoonyire nyũmba ya mũnene ũcio, akĩona ahuhi mĩtũrirũ na gĩkundi kĩa andũ kĩrĩa kĩanegenaga,
And when Jesus came into the ruler's house, and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise,
24 akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Eherai. Mũirĩtũ ũyũ ti mũkuũ, nĩ gũkoma akomete.” Nao andũ acio makĩmũthekerera.
He said unto them, Give place: for the maid is not dead, but sleeps. And they laughed him to scorn.
25 Thuutha wa andũ acio kuumio nja, agĩtoonya thĩinĩ, akĩnyiita mũirĩtu ũcio guoko, nake agĩũkĩra.
But when the people were put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand, and the maid arose.
26 Ũhoro ũcio ũkĩhunja bũrũri ũcio wothe.
And the fame hereof went abroad into all that land.
27 Na rĩrĩa Jesũ oimire kũu, aathianga-rĩ, andũ eerĩ atumumu makĩmũrũmĩrĩra, makĩanagĩrĩra, makiugaga atĩrĩ, “Tũiguĩre tha, wee Mũrũ wa Daudi!”
And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, You son of David, have mercy on us.
28 Na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aatoonyire nyũmba, atumumu acio magĩũka kũrĩ we, nake akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Nĩmwĩtĩkĩtie atĩ no hote gwĩka ũguo?” Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ-ni, Mwathani.”
And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus says unto them, Believe all of you that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yea, Lord.
29 Hĩndĩ ĩyo akĩmahutia maitho, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũroĩkwo o ũguo mwĩtĩkĩtie;”
Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you.
30 namo maitho mao makĩhingũka magĩcooka kuona. Nake Jesũ akĩmakaania na hinya, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mũtikareke mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ amenye ũhoro ũyũ.”
And their eyes were opened; and Jesus strictly charged them, saying, See that no man know it.
31 No-o makiumagara na makĩhunjia ũhoro wake bũrũri ũcio wothe.
But they, when they were departed, spread abroad his fame in all that country.
32 Na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa moimaga hau, Jesũ akĩreherwo mũndũ warĩ na ndaimono, na ndaaragia.
As they went out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed with a devil.
33 Nayo ndaimono yaingatwo, mũndũ ũcio ũtaaragia, akĩaria. Kĩrĩndĩ gĩkĩgega, gĩkiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũndũ ta ũyũ ndũrĩ woneka Isiraeli.”
And when the devil was cast out, the dumb spoke: and the multitudes marvelled, saying, It was never so seen in Israel.
34 No Afarisai makiuga atĩrĩ, “Aingataga ndaimono na hinya wa mũnene wa ndaimono.”
But the Pharisees said, He casts out devils through the prince of the devils.
35 Nake Jesũ agĩtuĩkania matũũra-inĩ mothe na mĩciĩ-inĩ yothe, akĩrutanaga thĩinĩ wa thunagogi ciao, akĩhunjagia Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa ũthamaki, na akĩhonagia mĩrimũ na ndwari cia mĩthemba yothe.
And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.
36 Na rĩrĩa oonire ũrĩa kĩrĩndĩ kĩu kĩaiganaga, agĩkĩiguĩra tha tondũ kĩarĩ gĩthĩĩnĩku na gĩkaaga ũteithio, ta ngʼondu itarĩ na mũrĩithi.
But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.
37 Hĩndĩ ĩyo akĩĩra arutwo ake atĩrĩ, “Magetha nĩ maingĩ, no aruti a wĩra nĩ anini.
Then says he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is abundant, but the labourers are few;
38 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, hooyai Mwathani wa magetha atũme aruti wĩra mathiĩ magetha-inĩ make.”
Pray all of you therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.
