Marqqoosa 1
1 Hayssi Xoossaa Na7aa Yesuus Kiristtoosa Wonggelaa doomethaa.
The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
2 Nabiya Isayaasi xaafida maxaafan Xoossay, “Hekko, taani ta kiitanchchuwa taani neeppe sinthe yeddana. I ne ogiya giigisana.
As it is written in the Prophets, “Behold, I am sending my messenger ahead of yoʋ, who will prepare yoʋr way before yoʋ,
3 Issoy bazzo gidon ba qaala dhoqqu oothidi, ‘Godaa ogiya giigisite; I hamuttana horogaa iyaw suurisite gis’” yaagees.
the voice of one crying out in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way for the Lord; make his paths straight,’”
4 Xammaqiya Yohaannisi asaa xammaqishe, “Hintte nagaraappe simmidi xammaqetite; Xoossay hintte nagaraa atto gaana” yaagidi qaala odishe bazzo biittafe yis.
John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.
5 Yihuda biittan de7iya asay ubbaynne Yerusalaame katamaa asay ubbay Yohaannisakko yoosona. Bantta nagara paaxin, Yohaannisi entta Yorddaanose Shaafan xammaqees.
The whole Judean countryside was going out to him, and so were the people of Jerusalem. They were all being baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins.
6 Yohaannisi gimale ikiseppe dadettida afila ma77ees. Ba xeessan dafo danccees; qassi boolenne degera eessi mees.
Now John was clothed with camel's hair and wore a leather belt around his waist; he ate locusts and wild honey.
7 Yohaannisi qaala odishe, “Taappe guyera daro minneyssi yees. Hari attoshin, taani iya caammaa wodoruwa hokkada billanawu bessike.
He proclaimed, “After me comes one who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie.
8 Taani hinttena haathan xammaqays, shin I hinttena Geeshsha Ayyaanan xammaqana” yaagis.
I have baptized you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
9 Yesuusi he wode Galiila biittan de7iya Naazirete katamaappe yin, Yohaannisi Yorddaanose Shaafan iya xammaqis.
In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
10 Yesuusi haathaafe keyaa wode saloy dooyettin, Geeshsha Ayyaanay ba bolla holeda wodhdhishin be7is.
Immediately as he was coming up from the water, he saw the heavens being split apart and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.
11 Qassi saloppe, “Taani dosiya ta na7ay nena; ta nenan ufayttays” yaagiya qaalay yis.
Then a voice came from heaven: “Yoʋ are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
12 Iira Geeshsha Ayyaanay Yesuusa bazzo biitta efis.
Immediately the Spirit drove him out into the wilderness,
13 Yesuusi bazzo biittan Xalahen paacettishe oytamu gallas gam77is. Do7atara de7is, shin kiitanchchoti yidi iya maaddidosona.
and he was there in the wilderness for forty days, being tempted by Satan. He was with the wild beasts, and the angels ministered to him.
14 Yohaannisi qashettidaappe guye, Yesuusi Xoossaa kawotethaa Wonggelaa odishe Galiila biittaa bis.
After John was put in prison, Jesus went to Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God
15 Yan, “Wodey gakkis; Xoossaa kawotethay matattis. Hintte nagaraappe simmidi, Wonggelan ammanite” yaagis.
and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has drawn near. Repent and believe in the gospel.”
16 Yesuusi Galiila Abbaa matara aadhdhishe, molo oykkeyssata, Simoonanne iya ishaa Inddiriyasa, bantta gitiya abban yeggeyssata be7is.
As Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother (that is, Simon's brother) casting a net in the sea, for they were fishermen.
17 Enttako, “Tana kaallite; taani hinttena ase oythu tamaarssana” yaagis.
Jesus said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.”
18 Entti sohuwara bantta gitiya yeggi aggidi Yesuusa kaallidosona.
So they immediately left their nets and followed him.
19 Yesuusi guuthi sinthe bidi, nam77u ishata Zabdiyoosa nayta, Yayqoobanne Yohaannisa wogoluwa giddon bantta gitiya giigiseyssata be7is.
Going on a little farther from there, he saw James the son of Zebedee and John his brother as they were in the boat mending their nets.
20 I entta be7ida mela xeegis. Entti bantta aawa Zabdiyoosa, iya oosanchchotara wogoluwa giddon yeggi aggidi Yesuusa kaallidi bidosona.
Immediately he called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men and followed him.
21 Entti Qifirnahoome katamaa gelidosona. Sambbaati gelida mela Yesuusi ellesidi Ayhude Woosa Keethi gelidi tamaarsso oykkis.
They went to Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath Jesus went into the synagogue and began teaching.
22 Maatara de7iya asada tamaarssesippe attin higge asttamaaretatho tamaarssonna gisho, asay iya timirttiyan malaalettidosona.
The people were astonished at his teaching, because he was teaching them as one who had authority, and not as the scribes.
23 He wode tuna ayyaanay oykkida issi uray Ayhude Woosa Keethi gelidi ba qaala dhoqqu oothidi,
Now in their synagogue there was a man possessed by an unclean spirit. He cried out,
24 “Naazirete Yesuusa, neeni nuuppe ay koyay? Nuna dhayssanaw yadi? Neeni ooneekko ta erays; neeni Xoossaa Geeshshaa gidikkii?” yaagis.
“Leave us alone! What do yoʋ have to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have yoʋ come to destroy us? I know who yoʋ are—the Holy One of God.”
25 Yesuusi he tuna ayyaanaa, “Hayza, ha addiyafe keya” gidi kiittis.
But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent, and come out of him!”
26 Tuna ayyaanay uraa daferethidi, waassidi iyappe keyis.
So the unclean spirit convulsed the man and came out of him, crying out with a loud voice.
27 Asay ubbay malaalettidi, “Hayssi aybee? Ha uray ba maatan hari attoshin tuna ayyaanatakka kiittees. Entti iyaw kiitettosona; hayssi aybi ooratha timirtte?” gidi, bantta giddon issoy issuwa oychchidosona.
All the people were amazed so that they questioned among themselves, saying, “What is this? What new teaching is this that with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him?”
28 Yesuusa sunthay ellesidi Galiila biittan de7iya heera ubban keyis.
And the news about him immediately spread throughout all the surrounding region of Galilee.
29 Yesuusi Ayhude Woosa Keethafe keyidi, Yayqoobaranne Yohaannisara Simoona soonne Inddiriyasa soo bis.
After leaving the synagogue, they immediately went to the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30 Simoona machche aayiya qoxo misha harggada zin77idaaro Yesuusi yaa gakkiya wode iyaw odidosona.
Now Simon's mother-in-law lay sick with a fever, and they immediately told Jesus about her.
31 I iikko shiiqidi, I kushiya oykkidi, iyo denthi essis. Qoxoynne mishay aggin iya entta mokkasu.
So he went over to her and raised her up, taking hold of her hand. Immediately the fever left her, and she began to serve them.
32 Harggida asa ubbaanne tuna ayyaanati oykkida asa ubbaa omarssi away wullidaappe guye, iyaakko ehidosona.
When evening came, after the sun had set, they brought to Jesus all who were sick and those who were possessed by demons.
33 Kataman de7iya asay ubbay he keetha kare shiiqidosona.
The whole city was gathered together at the door,
34 Yesuusi dumma dumma harggen oykettida daro asaa pathidi, daro tuna ayyaanata kessis. I ooneekko tuna ayyaanati erida gisho, entta odisonna diggis.
and he healed many who were sick with various diseases. He also cast out many demons, but he would not allow the demons to speak, because they knew who he was.
35 Yesuusi wontta guura denddidi, asi baynna bessi bidi, yan Xoossaa woossis.
Early the next morning, while it was still very dark, Jesus rose and departed. He went off to a desolate place and prayed there.
36 Simooninne iyara de7eyssati iya koyishe bidosona.
Simon and his companions searched diligently for him,
37 Entti iya demmidi, “Asay ubbay nena koyees” yaagidosona.
and when they found him, they said to him, “Everyone is looking for yoʋ.”
38 Yesuusi qassi entta, “He heeran de7iya hara katamata yedhdhite. Taani yiday Wonggelaa odanaw gidiya gisho yankka qaala odanaw bessees” yaagis.
Jesus said to them, “Let us go into the neighboring towns so that I may preach there also, for that is why I have come.”
39 Ayhude Woosa Keethatan qaala odishenne tuna ayyaanata kessishe, Galiila biitta ubban yuuyis.
So he was preaching in their synagogues in all of Galilee and casting out demons.
40 Baroy oykkida issi uray Yesuusakko yidi, iya sinthan gulbbatidi, “Neeni koykko tana geeshshanaw dandda7aasa” yaagidi woossis.
Then a leper came up and knelt before him, begging him, “If yoʋ are willing, yoʋ can make me clean.”
41 Yesuusi iyaw qadhettidi, ba kushiya yeddidi iya bochchidi, “Taani koyays, geeya” yaagis.
Moved with compassion, Jesus stretched out his hand, touched the man, and said to him, “I am willing; be made clean.”
42 Sohuwara baroy uraa yeddin uray paxis.
When he said this, the leprosy immediately departed from the man, and he was made clean.
43 Yesuusi uraa minthi naagisidi kessi yeddis.
Then Jesus sternly warned him and immediately sent him away,
44 Yesuusi iya, “Nena era, hayssa oodeskka odoppa. Shin bada ne asatethaa kahine bessa. Neeni ha77i geeshshi gididayssa asa erisanaw, Musey kiittida yarshshuwa yarshsha” yaagis.
saying to him, “Be sure not to say anything to anyone, but go show yoʋrself to the priest and offer for yoʋr cleansing what Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”
45 Shin uray bidi, guta ubban asa ubbaas odis. Hessa gisho, Yesuusi qoncce keyidi, katama gelanaw dandda7ibeenna. Shin asi baynnason gaxan de7is; qassi asay ubba bessafe iyaakko yoosona.
But the man went out and began to proclaim it widely and to spread the news, so that Jesus could no longer openly enter a town, but was out in desolate places. Yet people were coming to him from everywhere.
