1 Mgbe ụbọchị ole na ole gafesịrị, ọ bataghachiri na Kapanọm. Ndị mmadụ nụrụ na ọ lọghachila.
AND again he entered into Capernaum after some days: and it was heard, that he was in the house;
2 Igwe mmadụ zukọtara nʼime ụlọ ahụ nke mere na ohere afọdụghị ọ bụladị nʼọnụ ụzọ. O kwusakwaara ha oziọma.
and immediately many collected round him, so that there was no room, not even at the door; and he spake the word to them.
3 Ndị ikom ụfọdụ buteere ya otu nwoke ahụ ya kpọnwụrụ akpọnwụ. Ọ bụ mmadụ anọ bu ya.
And they come to him, carrying a paralytic, borne of four:
4 Ebe ha na-enweghị ike ibutere ya Jisọs nʼihi igwe mmadụ, ha gwupuru oghere nʼelu ụlọ ebe ahụ ọ nọ. Mgbe ha gwupusiri ya, ha budatara onye ahụ ahụ ya kpọnwụrụ akpọnwụ nʼute o jiri dina.
and not being able to come nigh him because of the crowd, they stripped off the roofing of the house where he was; and having broken a way through, they let down with ropes the couch, on which the paralytic lay.
5 Mgbe Jisọs hụrụ okwukwe ha, ọ sịrị onye ahụ ahụ ya kpọnwụrụ akpọnwụ, “Nwa m nwoke, agbagharala gị mmehie gị.”
Then Jesus beholding their faith, saith to the paralytic, Son, thy sins are forgiven thee.
6 Ma ụfọdụ ndị ozizi iwu nọdụrụ ala nʼebe ahụ na-eche nʼime obi ha sị,
Now there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,
7 “Gịnị mere onye a ji na-ekwulu Chineke? Onye pụrụ ịgbaghara mmehie ma ọ bụghị naanị Chineke?”
Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but the one God?
8 Ngwangwa Jisọs matara nʼime mmụọ ya na ha na-atule okwu a nʼime obi ha. Ọ sịrị ha, “Gịnị mere unu ji na-eche ihe dị otu a nʼobi unu?
And instantly Jesus knowing by his spirit, that they reasoned thus among each other, said to them, Why reason ye about these things in your hearts?
9 Olee nke ka mfe: ọ bụ ịgwa onye a akụkụ ahụ ya kpọnwụrụ akpọnwụ, ‘A gbagharala gị mmehie gị niile,’ ka ọ bụ i sị, ‘Bilie chịrị ute gị jegharịa?’
Which is the easier thing, to say to a paralytic, Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Arise and take up thy couch, and walk away?
10 Ma igosi unu na Nwa nke Mmadụ nwere ikike nʼụwa ịgbaghara mmehie.” Ọ sịrị onye ahụ akụkụ ahụ ya kpọnwụrụ akpọnwụ,
But that ye may know that the Son of man hath authority upon earth to forgive sins, he saith to the paralytic,
11 “Ana m asị gị, bilie, chịrị ute gị laa nʼụlọ gị.”
I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy couch, and go into thy house.
12 O biliri, chịrị ute ya pụọ nʼihu mmadụ niile. Nke a juru ndị niile nọ nʼebe ahụ anya. Ha toro Chineke na-asị, “Anyị ahụbeghị ihe dị otu a mbụ!”
And he arose instantly, and taking up his couch, went out before them all; so that they were all astonished, and glorified God, saying, We never before saw any thing like this.
13 Emesịa, Jisọs pụrụ gaa nʼakụkụ osimiri ahụ. Igwe mmadụ bịakwutere ya. Ọ malitere izi ha ihe.
And he went forth again to the sea side; and all the people came unto him; and he taught them.
14 Mgbe ọ na-aga nʼihu, ọ hụrụ Livayị nwa Alfiọs ka ọ nọdụrụ ala nʼụlọ ịnakọta ụtụ. Ọ sịrị ya, “Soro m,” o biliri sooro ya.
And passing by, he saw Levi the son of Alpheus sitting at the custom-house, and he saith to him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him
15 Mgbe ọ na-eri nri uhuruchi nʼụlọ Livayị, ọtụtụ ndị ọna ụtụ na ndị mmehie soro ya na ndị na-eso ụzọ ya nọrọ ebe ahụ, nʼihi na ndị na-esogharị ya dị ọtụtụ.
And it came to pass, as he sat at table in his house, many publicans also, and sinners, sat down with Jesus and his disciples; for they were numerous, and they followed him.
16 Mgbe ndị ozizi iwu nke ndị Farisii hụrụ ya ka o so ndị mmehie na ndị ọna ụtụ na-eri nri, ha jụrụ ndị na-eso ụzọ ya sị, “Gịnị mere o ji eso ndị mmehie na ndị ọna ụtụ na-erikọ nri?”
And the scribes and the Pharisees seeing him eat with publicans and sinners, said to his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners?
17 Mgbe ọ nụrụ nke a, Jisọs sịrị ha, “Mkpa dibịa adịghị akpa ndị ahụ dị ike, kama ọ bụ ndị ahụ na-esighị ike. Abịaghị m ịkpọ ndị ezi omume kama ndị mmehie.”
And when Jesus heard it, he said unto them, They who are in strong health have no need of a physician, but they who have illness: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
18 Nʼoge a, ndị na-eso ụzọ Jọn na ndị Farisii na-ebu ọnụ. Ndị mmadụ bịara jụọ ya sị, “Gịnị mere ndị na-eso ụzọ Jọn na ndị na-eso ụzọ ndị Farisii ji ebu ọnụ, ma ndị nke gị adịghị ebu ọnụ?”
And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees kept fasts; and they came and said to him, Wherefore do the disciples of John, and of the Pharisees, fast? but thy disciples keep no fast.
19 Jisọs sịrị ha, “O kwesiri na ndị a kpọrọ oriri ọlụlụ di na nwunye ga-ebu ọnụ mgbe onye na-alụ nwunye ọhụrụ nọ nʼetiti ha? Ha apụghị ibu ọnụ ogologo oge ya na ha nọ.
And Jesus said to them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.
20 Ma oge na-abịa mgbe a ga-ewepụ onye na-alụ nwunye ọhụrụ. Nʼụbọchị ahụ ka ha ga-ebu ọnụ.
But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.
21 “Ọ dịghị onye na-eji akwa ọhụrụ kwachie ebe akwa ochie siri dọkaa. Ọ bụrụ na o mee nke a, akwa ọhụrụ ahụ ga-adọkapụ site na nke ochie mee ka ndọka ya dị njọ karịa.
And no man seweth on a patch of cloth undressed upon an old garment: but if otherwise, the new piece supplied taketh away from the old, and the rent is made worse.
22 Ọ dịghị onye na-agbanye mmanya ọhụrụ na karama akpụkpọ ochie. O mee nke a, mmanya ahụ ga-agbawa karama akpụkpọ ochie ahụ, mee ka karama na mmanya laa nʼiyi. Ee, a na-agbanye mmanya ọhụrụ nʼime karama akpụkpọ ọhụrụ.”
And no man putteth new wine into old bottles; but if otherwise, the new wine will burst the bottles, and the wine will be spilt, and the bottles destroyed: but new wine must be put into new bottles.
23 Otu ụbọchị izuike, ya na ndị na-eso ụzọ ya na-agafe nʼubi a kụrụ ọka. Dị ka ha na-agafe, ndị na-eso ụzọ ya malitere ịghọ ụfọdụ ogbe ọka nʼime ọka ndị ahụ.
And he was walking through the cornfields on the sabbath; and his disciples as they went on the road plucked the ears of corn.
24 Ndị Farisii siri ya, “Lee, gịnị mere ha ji na-eme ihe megidere iwu nʼụbọchị izuike.”
And the Pharisees said to him, See, why are they doing on the sabbath, what is not lawful?
25 Ma ọ sịrị ha, “Unu agụtaghị ihe Devid na ndị so ya mere mgbe agụụ gụrụ ha?
And he said unto them, Have ye never read what David did, when he was under necessity, and was hungry, himself and they who were with him?
26 Nʼoge Abịata bụ onyeisi nchụaja, ọ banyere nʼụlọ Chineke taa achịcha e chere nʼihu ya, nke ziri ezi na ọ bụ naanị ndị nchụaja kwesiri ịta ya. O nyetụkwara ndị ya na ha so.”
How he entered into the house of God to Abiathar the high-priest; and did eat the shewbread, which it was not lawful for any to eat except the priests, and he gave also to those who were with him?
27 Mgbe ahụ, ọ gwakwara ha sị, “E mere ụbọchị izuike maka mmadụ, emeghị mmadụ maka ụbọchị izuike.”
And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, not man for the sabbath.
28 Ya mere, Nwa nke Mmadụ bụ Onyenwe ọ bụladị ụbọchị izuike.
Wherefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
