Luk 8
1 Mgbe ihe ndị a gasịrị, ọ gara nʼobodo ukwu niile na nʼobodo nta niile na-ekwusa ma na-ewetakwara ndị mmadụ oziọma nke alaeze Chineke. Ndị ozi iri na abụọ ahụ sokwa ya,
And it came to pass consecutively, that He was going through city and village, proclaiming and preaching the gospel of God, and the twelve along with Him.
2 na ụmụ nwanyị ụfọdụ ndị a chụpụrụ mmụọ ọjọọ site nʼime ha, gwọkwa ha nrịa nrịa: Meri Magdalin onye e sitere nʼime ya chụpụ mmụọ ọjọọ asaa,
And certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,
3 na Joana nwunye Chuza onye na-elekọta ụlọeze Herọd na akụ ya niile, na Suzana, na ọtụtụ ndị ọzọ ndị ji akụ ha na-enyere ha aka.
and Joanna the wife of Chuzas the steward of Herod, and Susanna, and many other women, who were accustomed to minister unto Him from those things belonging to them.
4 Mgbe oke igwe mmadụ gbakọrọ ha na ndị mmadụ si nʼobodo dị iche iche bịakwute ya. Ọ tụụrụ ha ilu a sị,
A great multitude being with Him, and coming to Him throughout every city, He spoke in a parable:
5 “Ọgha mkpụrụ pụrụ ịkụ mkpụrụ ya, mgbe ọ nọ na-agha mkpụrụ ndị a, ụfọdụ nʼime mkpụrụ ahụ dara nʼakụkụ ụzọ ebe ndị mmadụ zọrọ ha ụkwụ, ụmụ nnụnụ bịakwara tụrịa ha loo.
A sower went out to sow his seed. And while he was sowing, some fell by the way, and was trodden under foot, and the birds of the air devoured it.
6 Ụfọdụ nʼime ha dakwasịrị nʼelu nkume. Mgbe ha puputara chọọ ito, ha kpọnwụrụ nʼihi na mgbọrọgwụ ha enweghị ike ịmịta mmiri mkpụrụ ahụ ga-eji dị ndụ.
And other fell on the rock; and springing up, withered away, because it had no moisture.
7 Ụfọdụ dara nʼetiti ogwu, ogwu ndị a sooro ha puo ma kpagbuo ha.
And other fell in the midst of thorns, and the thorns growing together, choked it out.
8 Ụfọdụ nʼime mkpụrụ dara nʼezi ala. Ha puputara, too, mịa mkpụrụ dị otu narị nʼọnụọgụgụ.” Mgbe o kwusiri nke a, ọ sịrị ha, “Onye ọbụla nwere ntị ịnụ ihe, ya nụrụ.”
And other fell into good ground, and springing up, produced fruit, a hundredfold. Speaking these things, He cried out, Let the one having ears to hear, hear.
9 Ndị na-eso ụzọ ya jụrụ ya ihe ilu a pụtara.
And His disciples asked Him saying, What might this parable be?
10 Ọ sịrị, “Ọ bụ unu ka e nyere ịmata ihe omimi niile nke alaeze Chineke, ma ndị ọzọ ga-anụ ya naanị nʼilu. Site nʼụzọ dị otu a, “‘ha ga na-ele anya, ma ha agaghị ahụ ihe ọbụla. Ha ga na-anụ ntị ma ha agaghị aghọta ihe ọbụla.’
And He said; To you it has been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to the rest in parables; in order that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.
11 “Nke a bụ nkọwa ilu ahụ. Mkpụrụ ahụ bụ okwu Chineke.
And this is the parable: The seed is the word of God.
12 Mkpụrụ dara nʼakụkụ ụzọ nọchiri anya ndị nụrụ okwu Chineke, ma ekwensu bịara napụ ha okwu ahụ nʼobi ha, ka ha ghara ikwere ma nwetakwa nzọpụta.
And there are those who hear by the wayside; then the devil comes, and takes away the word from their heart, lest they believing may be saved.
13 Mkpụrụ ndị ahụ dara nʼelu nkume nọchiri anya ndị nụrụ okwu Chineke jiri ọṅụ nabata ya, ma ha enweghị mgbọrọgwụ nʼime ha. Ha na-ekwere naanị nwa oge nta, ma mgbe ọnwụnwa bịara ha na-adachapụ.
And those on the stones are they who, when they may hear, receive the word with joy; and they have no root in them, who believe for a time, and in time of temptation they fall away.
14 Mkpụrụ nke dara nʼetiti ogwu nọchiri anya ndị nụrụ okwu Chineke, ma mgbe ha na-aga nʼụzọ ha, echiche banyere akụ na ihe ụtọ nke ụwa na-akpagbu okwu ahụ, mee ka ha ghara ịmị mkpụrụ.
And that which falleth among thorns, there are those who hear, and going forward, by the cares and riches and pleasures are choked out, and bring forth no fruit to perfection.
15 Ma mkpụrụ ndị ahụ dara nʼezi ala nọchiri anya ndị jiri obi ghere oghe na mmụọ ziri ezi nabata okwu ahụ ma werekwa ndidi mịpụta mkpụrụ.
And that which is in the good ground, are those whosoever hearing the word in a beautiful and good heart, retain it, and bring forth fruit with patience.
16 “Ọ dịghị onye ọbụla, nke na-amụnye oriọna zoo ya nʼime igbe maọbụ dọnye ya nʼokpuru ihe ndina. Kama, ọ na-adọkwasị ya nʼelu ihe ịdọba ọkụ ka ndị ọbụla na-abata nʼụlọ ahụ jiri ya hụ ụzọ.
But no one having lighted a candle covers it with a vessel, or puts it under a bed; but he places it on a candlestick, in order that those coming in may see the light.
17 Ọ dịghị ihe ọbụla zoro ezo nke na-agaghị emesịa pụta ìhè, ọ dịkwaghị ihe ọbụla dị nzuzo nke a na-aghaghị eme ka ọ pụta ìhè.
For there is nothing hidden which shall not be made manifest; neither is there any thing concealed, which may not be made known and come into the light.
18 Ya mere, kpacharanụ anya otu unu si ege ntị. Nʼihi na ọ bụ onye ahụ nwere ihe ka a ga-enye karịa, ma onye ahụ na-enweghị, ọ bụladị nke o nwere, ka a ga-anapụ ya.”
Therefore see how you hear: for whosoever may have, it shall be given unto him; and whosoever may not have, it shall be taken from him, even that which he seems to have.
19 Nʼoge a, nne ya na ụmụnne ya nwoke bịakwutere ya. Ma ha enweghị ike ịbịaru ya nso nʼihi igwe mmadụ.
And His mother and His brothers came to Him, and were not able to reach Him on account of the crowd.
20 Otu onye gwara ya sị, “Nne gị na ụmụnne gị ndị nwoke guzo nʼezi, ha chọrọ ịhụ gị.”
And it was told Him, Thy mother and thy brothers stand without, wishing to see thee.
21 Ọ zara sị, “Nne m na ụmụnne m ndị nwoke bụ ndị ahụ na-anụ okwu Chineke ma jiri ya mere ihe.”
And He responding said to them, My mother and my brothers are the ones hearing the word of God, and doing it.
22 Otu ụbọchị, ya na ndị na-eso ụzọ ya banyere nʼụgbọ mmiri, ọ sịrị ha, “Ka anyị gafee nʼofe nke ọzọ nke osimiri.” Nke a mere ha ji nụpụ ụgbọ,
And it came to pass on one of the days, He and His disciples went into a ship. And He said to them, Let us go to the other side of the lake. And they were embarked.
23 ma mgbe ha na-aga, ọ rahụrụ ụra. Oke ifufe malitere ife nʼelu ọdọ mmiri ahụ, nke mere na mmiri na-awụbanye nʼime ụgbọ ha, mee ka ha nọrọ nʼoke nsogbu.
And they sailing, He was asleep: and a storm of wind came down into the lake; and they were being filled, and imperiled.
24 Ha gara kpọtee ya na-eti mkpu, “Nna anyị ukwu! Nna anyị ukwu! Lee na anyị nʼala nʼiyi!” O biliri, baara ifufe na ebili mmiri ahụ mba. Ha dara jụụ, ebe niile dekwara jii.
And they having come to Him, awakened Him, saying, Master, Master, we perish. And He having arisen, rebuked the wind and the wave of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm.
25 Ọ sịrị ha, “Ebee ka okwukwe unu dị?” Ha ji oke egwu na oke iju anya jụrịta onwe ha sị, “Onye bụ onye a? Ọ na-enye ọ bụladị ifufe na ebili mmiri iwu, ha na-aṅakwa ya ntị.”
And He said to them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid were astonished, saying to one another, Who then is this, because He commands the winds and the water, and they obey Him?
26 Ha kwọrọ ụgbọ mmiri rute nʼala Gerazin, nke dị nʼofe mmiri Galili.
And they sailed into the country of the Gergesenes, which is over against Galilee.
27 Mgbe o si nʼụgbọ mmiri rịpụta nʼelu ala, otu nwoke obodo ahụ onye mmụọ ọjọọ bi nʼime ya zutere ya. Nwoke a ebighị nʼụlọ maọbụ yie uwe ogologo oge, ma ebe obibi ya bụ ebe a na-eli ozu.
And a certain man from the city, who a long time had demons, and did not wear clothing, and did not remain in the house, but in the tombs; met Him having come to the land.
28 Mgbe ọ hụrụ Jisọs, ọ bịara daa nʼihu ya, tie mkpu nʼoke olu sị, “Gịnị ka mụ na gị nwekọrọ Jisọs, Ọkpara Chineke Onye kachasị ihe niile elu? Biko arịọ m gị, atala m ahụhụ.”
And seeing Jesus, and crying out, he worshiped Him, and said with a loud voice; What is there to me and to thee, O Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I pray thee torment me not.
29 Nʼihi na o nyela mmụọ ahụ na-adịghị ọcha iwu ka o site nʼime ya pụta. Ọtụtụ oge, mmụọ ọjọọ a na-ejidesi ya ike, nʼagbanyeghị na eji ụdọ igwe kee ya aka na ụkwụ, debe ebe a na-eche ya nche, ọ na-adọbisi ụdọ igwe e ji kee ya, mmụọ ọjọọ a na-eduru ya gaa nʼime ọzara.
For He commanded the unclean spirit to come out from the man; for since a long time he had possessed him, and he was frequently bound, secured with chains and fetters, and smashing his bonds, was driven by the demons into the desert.
30 Jisọs jụrụ ya sị, “Gịnị bụ aha gị?” Ọ zara sị, “Lijiọn,” nʼihi na igwe mmụọ ọjọọ bi nʼime ya.
And Jesus asked him saying, What is thy name? And he said Legion; because many demons entered into him.
And he continued to intreat Him that He should not command them to depart into the abyss. (Abyssos g12)
32 Igwe ezi nọ nʼakụkụ ugwu dị ebe ahụ nso na-akpa nri. Mmụọ ọjọọ ndị a rịọrọ Jisọs ka o nye ha ike ka ha banye nʼime ha. Jisọs nyere ha ike.
And there was a herd of many swine feeding in the mountain: and they continued to intreat Him that He should permit them to go into them. And He permitted them.
33 Mmụọ ọjọọ ndị ahụ sitere nʼime nwoke a pụọ banye nʼime ezi ndị ahụ, igwe ezi ahụ niile sitere na mkputamkpu ala ọnụ mmiri ahụ gbara ọsọ dabanyechaa nʼime mmiri ebe osimiri riri ha.
And the demons having come out from the man, came into the swine: and the herd rushed down a precipice into the sea, and were strangled.
34 Mgbe ndị na-elekọta ezi ahụ hụrụ ihe mere, ha gbara ọsọ gaa nʼime obodo na nʼobodo nta niile dị gburugburu ebe ahụ kọsaa ihe mere.
And the herders seeing that which took place, fled, and proclaimed it in the city and in the country.
35 Ndị mmadụ pụtara ịhụ ihe mere. Mgbe ha rutere ebe Jisọs nọ, ha hụrụ nwoke ahụ e si nʼime ya chụpụ mmụọ ọjọọ ndị ahụ, ebe ọ nọdụrụ ala yiri uwe ma nọrọkwa nʼezi uche ya. Egwu tụrụ ha.
And they came out to see that which had happened; and came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the demons had gone, clothed and in his right mind, at the feet of Jesus: and they were afraid.
36 Ndị hụrụ ka ihe a si mee kọọrọ ha ka e siri gwọọ onye ahụ mmụọ ọjọọ na-esogbu.
And those seeing reported to them how the demonized man was saved.
37 Mgbe ahụ, ndị niile bi na Gerazin na nʼobodo gbara ebe ahụ gburugburu rịọrọ Jisọs ka ọ hapụrụ ha obodo ha, nʼihi na egwu dị ukwuu tụrụ ha. Ọ banyekwara nʼime ụgbọ mmiri ahụ laghachi.
And all the multitudes of the surrounding country of the Gergesenes, asked Him to depart from them; because they were seized with great fear. And He having come Into the ship, returned.
38 Nwoke a e sitere nʼime ya chụpụ mmụọ ọjọọ rịọrọ ya ka o soro ya ma o zilagara ya, sị ya,
And the man out of whom the demons had gone prayed to be with Him. And Jesus sent him away, saying,
39 “Laghachi nʼezinaụlọ gị kọọrọ ha ihe niile Chineke meere gị.” Nwoke ahụ lara, gbasaa akụkọ ihe Jisọs meere ya nʼobodo ahụ niile.
Return to thy own house, and relate, how many things God has done unto thee. And he departed throughout the whole city, preaching how many things Jesus did unto him.
40 Mgbe Jisọs lọghachiri, igwe mmadụ nabatara ya nʼihi na ha niile na-eche ya.
And it came to pass when Jesus returned, the multitude received Him; for they were all looking for Him.
41 Mgbe ahụ otu nwoke nke aha ya bụ Jairọs, onye bụ onyeisi nʼụlọ ekpere, bịara daa nʼala nʼụkwụ Jisọs na-arịọ ya ka ọ bịa nʼụlọ ya.
Behold, a man to whom was the name Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue: and falling at the feet of Jesus, he continued to intreat Him to come into his house;
42 Nʼihi na otu nwata nwanyị ọ mụtara naanị ya, nke gbara afọ iri na abụọ nọ nʼọnụ ọnwụ. Mgbe ọ na-aga, igwe mmadụ ahụ na-akpagbu ya.
for there was an only daughter to him, of twelve years, and she was dying. And while He was going the multitudes were thronging Him.
43 Ọ dị otu nwanyị nʼetiti ha nke nọrịị na-arịa ọrịa oruru ọbara afọ iri na abụọ, onye mefuru ihe niile o ji nʼaka ndị dibịa, ma ọ dịghị onye nwere ike ịgwọ ya.
And a woman being in an issue of blood twelve years, who having expended all her living with physicians, was not able to be healed by any of them,
44 O sitere nʼazụ ya metụ ọnụ uwe ya aka. Ngwangwa, ọrịa oruru ọbara ahụ kwụsịkwara.
and having come to Him behind, she touched the hem of His garment: and immediately the issue of blood ceased.
45 Jisọs sịrị, “Onye metụrụ m aka?” Mgbe ọ na-enweghị onye pụtara kwuo sị na ọ bụ ya. Pita gwara ya sị, “Nna anyị ukwu, igwe mmadụ gbara gị gburugburu na-adakwasịkwa gị.”
And Jesus said, Who is the one having touched me? And all denying, Peter and the disciples with Him said, The multitudes crowd thee and press upon thee, and dost thou say, Who is the one having touched me?
46 Ma Jisọs sịrị, “Otu onye metụrụ m aka; amatara m na ike esitela nʼime m pụọ.”
And Jesus said, Some one touched me: for I know the power went out from me.
47 Mgbe nwanyị ahụ hụrụ na ọ dịkwaghị ihe o nwere ike ime iji zoo onwe ya, o ji ịma jijiji bịa daa nʼụkwụ ya. Nʼihu mmadụ niile, ọ kọrọ ihe mere o ji metụ ya aka na otu e sị gwọọ ya nʼotu ntabi anya.
And the woman seeing that she was not concealed, came trembling, and falling down before Him, proclaimed on account of what cause she touched Him, in the presence of all the people, and how she was healed immediately.
48 Ọ gwara ya sị, “Ada m nwanyị, okwukwe gị agwọọla gị. Laa nʼudo.”
And He said to her, Be of good cheer, daughter; thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
49 Mgbe ọ ka nọ na-ekwu okwu, otu onye si nʼụlọ Jairọs bụ onyeisi ụlọ ekpere, bịara sị, “Ada gị nwanyị anwụọla, enyekwala onye ozizi nsogbu ọzọ.”
And He yet speaking, a certain one comes from the house of the chief ruler of the synagogue, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Teacher:
50 Ma mgbe Jisọs nụrụ ozi a, ọ zara ya sị, “Atụla egwu, naanị kwere, a ga-agwọkwa ya.”
and Jesus hearing, responded to him, saying, Fear not: only believe, and she shall be saved.
51 Mgbe o rutere nʼụlọ Jairọs, o kweghị ka onye ọbụla soro ya baa nʼime ụlọ ahụ ma ọ bụghị naanị Pita, Jọn, Jemis, nne na nna nwata ahụ.
And having come to the house, He did not suffer any to enter except Peter, John, and James, and the father and mother of the child.
52 Nʼoge ahụ, ha niile nọ na-ebe akwa na-eru ụjụ maka nwata ahụ. Ọ sịrị ha, “Unu ebezila akwa, nʼihi na ọ nwụghị anwụ kama ọ nọ nʼụra.”
And they were all weeping, and wailing over her: and He said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth.
53 Ha chịrị ya ọchị, nʼihi na ha matara na ọ nwụrụ anwụ.
And they hooted at Him, knowing that she was dead.
54 Ma o jidere ya nʼaka, sị, “Nwa m, bilie!”
And having put all out, taking her by the hand, He spoke, saying, Child, arise.
55 Mmụọ ya lọghachiri, o bilitekwara mgbe ahụ. Ọ gwakwara ha ka ha chọọrọ ya nri ka o rie.
And her spirit returned, and she stood up immediately. And He commanded that something should be given to her to eat.
56 Ihe a gbara ndị mụrụ ya gharịị ma ọ nyere ha iwu ka ha ghara ịkọrọ onye ọbụla ihe mere.
And her parents were delighted: and He commanded them to tell no one that which had taken place.
