< uMarko 1 >

1 Uwu ingi ng'wandyo nua nkani ninza niang'wa Yesu Kristo, Ng'wana wang'wa Itunda.
The beginning of the gospel of JESUS CHRIST the Son of GOD.
2 Anga ni ikilisigwe nu munyakidagu uIsaya, “Gozeela, kumulagiilya u mutung'wa nuane ntongeela ako, ung'wi nuikazipiilya i nzila niako.
As it is written in the prophets, "Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee:"
3 Luli nula muntu nuitangaa mihaka, “Mikondeelyi i nzila a Mukulu; Igooli i nzila niakwe.”
and again, "The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight:" accordingly John came baptizing in the wilderness,
4 uYohana ai uzile, wazoja mihaka nu kutanantya wogigwa nua kila itunu ku ulekelwa nua milandu.
and preaching the baptism of repentance in order to the remission of sins;
5 Ihi ihi a ku Yudea ni antu ihi nia ku Yerusalemu ai alongoe kitalakwe. Ai atulaa akogigwa nu ng'wenso mu mongo nua Yordani, aze ila itunu ku milandu ao.
and all the country of Judea, and those of Jerusalem, went out to him, and were all baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
6 uYohana ai watulaa utugae ng'wenda nua mauli a ngamia nu mukoha nua ndili mu kilino nikakwe, hangi ai watulaa ukulya ngaga nu uki nua mihaka.
And John was clothed with camels hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins, and he lived upon locusts and wild honey: and he preached,
7 Ai utanantilye nu kuligitya, “Ukoli ung'wi upembilye ze yakilaa unene munya ngulu ikolo kukila unene, hangi nimugila u unoneli ga nu kutuna pihi nu kutungula i mikoha a ilatu niakwe.
saying, There cometh after me one mightier than I, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop and unloose.
8 Unene ai numogilye ku mazi, kuiti nuanso ukumoja unyenye ku Ng'wau Ng'welu.”
I indeed have baptized you with water, but He will baptize you with the holy Spirit.
9 Ai ipumie mu mahiku nanso kina uYesu ai uzile kupuma ku Nazareti a ku Galilaya, hangi ai wogigwe nu Yohana mu mongo nua Yordani.
And in those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in Jordan:
10 Itungo uYesu nai uhumbukile kupuma mu mazi, ai wihengile ilunde ligalanukile ng'walyi nu Ng'wau Ng'welu ukusima pihi migulya akwe anga i nkunda.
and as soon as He came up from the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon Him.
11 Nu luli ai lupumiie milunde, “Uewe ingi Ng'wana nuane mulowa, Ndoeigwe nangaluu nu ewe.”
And there was a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
12 Uugwa nkua ing'wi u Ng'wau Ng'welu akamusinja kulongola mihaka.
And immediately the Spirit taketh Him out into the wilderness:
13 Ai ukoli mihaka mahiku makumi anne, wazegeng'wa nu Mulugu, Ai watulaa palung'wi ni ikali nia mihaka, nia malaika ai amuaiiye.
and He was there in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan, and among the wild beasts: and angels ministred unto Him.
14 Itungili ze yakilaa uYohana kuambwa, uYesu ai uzile ku Galilaya wazetanantya inkani ninza niang'wa Itunda,
Now after John was cast into prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
15 wazeligitya, “Itungo lakondaniila, nu utemi nuang'wa Itunda wahumbeela. Ili itunu nu kuhuiila mu nkani ninza.”
and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent, and believe the gospel.
16 Hangi wazekila mu mpelo a luzi nula Galilaya, ai umihengile uSimioni nu Andrea muluna wang'wa Simioni azegumila i nyavu niao mu luzi, kunsoko ai atulaa avua nsamaki.
And as He was walking by the sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea,
17 uYesu ai uatambuie, “Pembyi, ntyati, hangi kumuzipya avua antu.”
(for they were fishermen, ) and Jesus said unto them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men:
18 Ni nkua ing'wi ai alekile i nyavu hangi akamutyata.
and immediately they left their nets and followed Him.
19 Itungo uYesu naiwagenda kahelu iniino, ai umihengile uYakobo ng'wana wang'wa Zebedayo nu Yohana muluna nuakwe; ai atulaa mi ilinga akuzipya nyavu.
And going a little farther, He saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship, mending their nets, and immediately called them likewise:
20 Katungo akaitanga ni enso ai amulekile u tata nuao uZebedayo mukati ilinga ni anyamulimo nia kugulwa, akamutyata.
and they left their father Zebedee in the ship with the men he had hired, and went along with Him.
21 Nai akapika ku Kapernaumu, luhiku nula kusupya, uYesu ai wingie mi itekeelo nu kumanyisa.
And they went into Capernaum: and going directly into the synagogue on the sabbath, He taught the people: and they were astonished at his doctrine;
22 Aka ukuilwa u umanyisa nuakwe. ku iti ai watulaa ukuamanyisa anga muntu naiza ukete uhumi hangi shanga anga amanyi.
for He taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.
23 Itungo lilo liilo ai ukoli nu muntu mi itekeelo nilao nai ukete nu hing'wi, hangi ai uzogooye,
And there was in their synagogue a man with an impure spirit,
24 wazeligitya, “Kukete ntuni nika kituma nu ewe, Yesu nua ku Nazereti? Uzile ku ulimilya? Nukulingile wi nyenyu. U ewe ingi Ng'welu wing'wene nuang'wa Itunda!”
and he cried out, saying, Let us alone, what have we to do with thee, Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee, who thou art, the holy one of God.
25 uYesu ai umukenee u hing'wi nu kuligitya, “Kilaga hangi upume mukati akwe!”
And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Be silent, and come out of him: and the impure spirit threw him into convulsions,
26 Nu hing'wi ai umugwisilye pihi hangi akapuma kitalakwe itungo wazelila ku luli nula migulya.
and roaring with a loud voice, came out of him.
27 Ni antu ihi ai akuiwe, iti gwa akikolya kila ung'wi, “iki ingi ntuni? Umanyisa ugeni ukete uhumi? Ga nukulagiilya ia hing'wi nienso aku mukulya!”
And they were all amazed, so that they inquired of each other, saying, What is this, what new kind of doctrine is this? for He commands with authority even the impure spirits, and they obey Him.
28 Nu lukani kutula ng'wenso nkua ing'wi lukasapatila kila kianza mukati a mukoa wihi nua Galilaya
And straitway his fame spread into all the country round about Galilee.
29 Hangi nkua ing'wi ze yakilaa kupuma kunzi itekeelo, ai ingi mi ito nilang'wa Simioni nu Andrea aze akoli nu Yakobo nu Yohana.
And as soon as they came out of the synagogue, they went into the house of Simon and Andrew, together with James and John.
30 Itungili mukwingwa nuang'wa Simioni ai watula ulae mulwae, ni nkua ing'wi ai amutambuie uYesu inkani niakwe.
And Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever: and they immediately told Him of her:
31 Iti gwa ai uzile, ai umuambile ku mukono, nu kumunyansula migulya; ulwae ukahega kitalakwe, hangi wakandya ku a aiilya.
and He came to her, and taking her by the hand raised her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she waited upon them.
32 Mpindi nanso itungo ilyoa lakondya kulimila, ai amuletee kitalakwe ihi nai atulaa alwae, ang'wi nai akete i ahing'wi.
And in the evening, when the sun set, they brought to Him all that were ill, and demoniacs:
33 Kisali kihi ai kilingiie palung'wi pa mulango.
and the whole city was gathered together at the door;
34 Ai uagunile idu nai atulaa alwae a kila ulwae nu kupumya ahing'wi idu, ila shanga ai ulekee hing'wi kuligitya ku nsoko ai amulingile.
and He healed many that were ill of various diseases, and cast out many devils, and suffered not the devils to say that they knew Him.
35 Ai u ukile dau maniabwa, itungo nai ikili kiti; ai uhegile nu kulongola nkika a kinkunku nu kulompa kuko.
And in the morning, before it was light, He rose up and went out, and retired into a solitary place, and there prayed.
36 uSimioni ni ihi nai atulaa palung'wi nu ng'wenso ai amudumile.
And Simon, and they that were with him, went in quest of Him:
37 Ai amuligilye hangi akamutambuila, “Kila ung'wi uku uduma”
and when they found Him, they said to Him, all the people are seeking for thee.
38 Ai uatambuie, “Kwini kianza kingiiza, kunzi mu isali ni ipilimikiiye, iti nihume kutanantya nuko ga. Yiyo nsoko aza nzile apa.”
And He saith unto them, Let us go into the neighbouring towns, that I may preach there also; for this was the end of my coming.
39 Ai ulongoe waze ukiie i Galilaya ihi, waze tanantya mu matekeelo ao nu kuapatya ia hing'wi.
And He went preaching in their synagogues, through all Galilee, and casting out devils.
40 Munya mbili ung'wi ai uzile kitalakwe. Ai watulaa ukumusinja; ai utugamile nu kumutambuila, “Anga ize uloilwe, uhumile kunzipya ntule ni muza.”
And there came to Him a leper, beseeching Him, and kneeling down to Him, and saying unto Him, If thou wilt, thou canst cleanse me:
41 Waze usuntilwe ni kinya uwai, uYesu ai ugooe u mukono nuakwe nu kumuamba, akamuila, “Ndoilwe, Utule u muza.”
and Jesus, being moved with compassion, stretched out his hand and touched him, and saith unto Him, I will;
42 Itungo ling'wi i mbili ikamupuma, hangi ai uzipigwe kutula muza.
be thou healed: and as soon as He had spoken, immediately the leprosy left him, and he was healed.
43 uYesu akamukania itaki nu kumuila walongole itungo ling'wi.
And he gave him a strict charge, and immediately dismissed him,
44 Ai umutambuie, “Kendegeela shanga uligitilye lukani ku wihi, kuiti longola, wiambye kung'wa kuhani, hangi upumye isongelyo ku nsoko a weligwa naiza uMusa ai ulagiiye, anga ukuiili kitalao.”
and saith unto him, See thou tell no man: but go, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy purification what Moses has commanded, for a testimony to them.
45 Kuiti ai ulongoe nu kandya kumutambula kila ung'wi nu kenelya u lukani ikilo ga nu Yesu shanga ai uhumile hangi kingila mu kisali ku ulyuuku. Iti gwa ai wikiie kianza nika kinkunku ni antu ai azile kitalakwe kupuma kila nkika.
But when he was gone he began to publish it much, and to spread abroad the report: so that Jesus could no more go openly into the city, but kept out in country places: and they came to Him from all parts.
