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 understood 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 forthwith many were assembled, so that there was no room to receive [them], no not so much as about the door: and he preached 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, bringing one sick with the palsy, who was borne by 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 when they could not come nigh to him by reason of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken [it] up, they let down the bed on which the sick with the palsy lay.
5 Mgbe Jisọs hụrụ okwukwe ha, ọ sịrị onye ahụ ahụ ya kpọnwụrụ akpọnwụ, “Nwa m nwoke, agbagharala gị mmehie gị.”
When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the sick with the palsy, Son, thy sins are forgiven thee.
6 Ma ụfọdụ ndị ozizi iwu nọdụrụ ala nʼebe ahụ na-eche nʼime obi ha sị,
But 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 God only?
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 immediately, when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said to them, Why reason ye 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 easier, to say to the sick with the palsy, [Thy] sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?
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 power on earth to forgive sins, he saith to the sick with the palsy,
11 “Ana m asị gị, bilie, chịrị ute gị laa nʼụlọ gị.”
I say to thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, 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 immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; so that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.
13 Emesịa, Jisọs pụrụ gaa nʼakụkụ osimiri ahụ. Igwe mmadụ bịakwutere ya. Ọ malitere izi ha ihe.
And he went forth again by the sea -[side]; and all the multitude resorted to 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 as he passed by, he saw Levi the [son] of Alpheus, sitting at the receipt of custom, and said 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, that as Jesus sat at table in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples; for there were many, 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 when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eating with publicans and sinners, they 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.”
When Jesus heard [it], he saith to them, They that are in health, have no need of a physician, but they that are sick; 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, used to fast: and they come, and say to him, Why do the disciples of John, and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not?
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 bride-chamber 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 from them, and then they will 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.
No man also seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up, 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, else the new wine doth burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles will be marred: 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 it came to pass, that he went through the corn-fields on the sabbath; and his disciples began, as they went, to pluck 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, Behold, why do they on the sabbath that which is not lawful?
25 Ma ọ sịrị ha, “Unu agụtaghị ihe Devid na ndị so ya mere mgbe agụụ gụrụ ha?
And he said to them, Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was hungry, he and they that 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 went into the house of God, in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and ate the show-bread, which it is not lawful to eat, but for the priests, and gave also to them 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 to them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:
28 Ya mere, Nwa nke Mmadụ bụ Onyenwe ọ bụladị ụbọchị izuike.
Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
