Maki 4
1 Mago'ene Jisasi'a rantiru'mofo ankenare mani'neno naneke erigafa huno rempi huzami'ne. Ana nehige'za tusi'a vahe krerfamo'za regorave hazageno, Jisasi'a votifi marerino mani'nege'za, tusi'a vahe krerfamo'za tiru ankenarega mani'naze.
Once more He began to teach by the side of the Lake, and a vast multitude of people came together to listen to Him. He therefore went on board the boat and sat there, a little way from the land; and all the people were on the shore close to the water.
2 Ana nehuno agra rama'a fronka ke zamasami'ne. Rempima huzamifina, anage hu'ne,
Then He proceeded to teach them many lessons in figurative language; and in His teaching He said,
3 Kama antahiho! Hoza ne'mo avimaza ruraniku hozarega vu'ne.
"Listen: the sower goes out to sow.
4 Ana'ma huno ome runeranigeno, mago'a avimzamo'a kamofo ankinafi evuramigeno, namamo'za eme ne'naze.
As he sows, some of the seed falls by the way-side, and the birds come and peck it up.
5 Mago'a avimaza avimo'a havege huno rama'a mopa omanenefi evuramiteno ame huno hagene. Na'ankure havege huno osia mopa me'negeno'e.
Some falls on the rocky ground where it finds but little earth, and it shoots up quickly because it has no depth of soil;
6 Hagi zagemo'a hanatino teosaparene, na'ankure rafu'namo'a fempina uorami'negeno osapare'ne.
but when the sun is risen, it is scorched, and through having no root it withers away.
7 Mago'a avimaza avimo'a ave'ave trazampi evuramigeno, aveave trazamo'a hageno, rentrako higeno raga'a reonte'ne.
Some, again, falls among the thorns; and the thorns spring up and stifle it, so that it yields no crop.
8 Hu'neanagi mago'a avimzamo'a tima'ane mopafi evuramiteno hageno raga'a rente'ne. Mago'amo'a 30'a rentegeno, mago'amo'a 60'a rentegeno, mago'amo'a 100'a rente'ne.
But some of the seed falls into good ground, and gives a return: it comes up and increases, and yields thirty, sixty, or a hundred-fold."
9 Ana nehuno anage hu'ne, Izano agesa me'nenigeno nentahisimofona, atregeno ama kea antahise hino.
"Listen," He added, "every one who has ears to listen with!"
10 Hagi anama huteno Jisasi'ma Agrake'ma umani'nege'za, mago'a manigagi'naza vahe'mo'zane, 12fu'a amage'ma nentaza disaipol naga'mo'za, ana fronka keramimofo agafa'a antahise hunaku antahige'naze.
When He was alone, the Twelve and the others who were about Him requested Him to explain His figurative language.
11 Jisasi'a anage huno zamasami'ne, Anumzamofo kumamofo oku'a antahintahia tamagrira ko tamine. Hianagi megi'ama mani'naza vahe'mo'za fronka kege nentahize.
"To you," He replied, "has been entrusted the secret truth concerning the Kingdom of God; but to those others outside your number all this is spoken in figurative language;
12 Ana higu Avontafepina anage hu'ne, kegahazanagi keama osugahaze. Antahigahazanagi antahi amara osugahaze. Zamagra aru zmagu'a rukrahe hanageno Anumzamo kumizimi eri atrezankure anara hugahie. (Ais 6:9-10)
that "'They may look and look but not see, and listen and listen but not understand, lest perchance they should return and be pardoned.'"
13 Anante Jisasi'a anage huno zamasami'ne, Ama fronka kemofo agafa'a antahi ama'ma osanutma, inankna hutma mika fronka kemofo agafa'a antahi amara hugahaze?
"Do you all miss the meaning of this parable?" He added; "how then will you understand the rest of my parables?"
14 Avimaza rurani'nea ne'mo'a, Anumzamofo ke ome krine.
"What the sower sows is the Message.
15 Mago'a avimazama kamofo ankinarega evurami'neana, mago'a vahe'mo'za Anumzamofo kea nentahizageno, Sata'a ame huno zamagu'afima krinea kea eritrene.
Those who receive the seed by the way-side are those in whom the Message is sown, but, when they have heard it, Satan comes at once and carries away the Message sown in them.
16 Havege mopafima rurani'neana, Anumzamofo kema nentahi'za, muse hu'za ame hu'za eneri'ze.
In the same way those who receive the seed on the rocky places are those who, when they have heard the Message, at once accept it joyfully,
17 Hianagi zamagu'afina rafuna ore'neza oti hanave oti'nazankiza, anante'ma Anumzamofo kegu hu'za hazenke zano, zamazeri haviza huzama fore hige'za, ame hu'za atre'za nevaze.
but they have no root within them. They last for a time; then, when suffering or persecution comes because of the Message, they are immediately overthrown.
18 Mago'amo'za ave'ave trazampi avimaza ruranineankna hu'naze. Anamo'za Anumzamofo kea antahinazanagi,
Others there are who receive the seed among the thorns: these are they who have heard the Message,
19 mopafi zankuke zamagesa nentahi'za, zago afu fenoma eri atruma huzamo rezmatga nehuno, mago'azama zamesinte'zamo zamagu'afina efreno Anumzamofo nanekea rentrako higeno ne'za raga'a renonte. (aiōn g165)
but worldly cares and the deceitfulness of wealth and the excessive pursuit of other objects come in and stifle the Message, and it becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
20 Hianagi tima'ane mopafi rurani'nea avimazana, zamagra Anumzamofo kea antahi ankere'za, ana kea e'neri'za nena raga'a renentaze. Mago'mo'a 30'a rentegeno, mago'mo'a 60'a rentegeno, mago'mo'a 100'a renente.
Those, on the other hand, who have received the seed on the good ground, are all who hear the Message and welcome it, and yield a return of thirty, sixty, or a hundred fold."
21 Jisasi'a amanage huno mago'ane zamasmi'ne, Rampe tavi'ma rekruma hazana, sipagampi ome nentafi, kavo agu'afinka ome nentazo? A'o anara nosaze. Rekru hutma tavima rekru hunte azotare ome nentaze.
He went on to say, "Is the lamp brought in in order to be put under the bushel or under the bed? Is it not rather in order that it may be placed on the lampstand?
22 Na'ankure miko'zama fra'ma ki'nesiazamo'a, eama nehanigeno, oku'a me'nesiazamo'a, masare eama hugahie.
Why, there is nothing hidden except with a view to its being ultimately disclosed, nor has anything been made a secret but that it may at last come to light.
23 Izano agesa me'nenigeno nentahisimofona, atregeno ama kea antahise hino.
Listen, every one who has ears to listen with!"
24 Mago'ane anage huno zamasmi'ne, Kema nentahizana antahi so'e hiho. Tamagrama amisaza avamente, ana avamente tamagrira neramamino, mago'ane agofetu huno tamamigahie.
He also said to them, "Take care what you hear. With what measure you measure, it will be measured to you, and that with interest.
25 Na'ankure iza'o eri'nenimofona mago'ene agofetu huno amigahie. Hagi iza'o e'orinesimofona, osiama eri'nenia zana eritre vagaregahie.
For those who have will have more given them; and from those who have not, even what they have will be taken away."
26 Hagi Jisasi'a mago'ane anage hu'ne, Anumzamofo kumamo'a, mago vahe'mo avimza avi mopafi ruranino kriankna hu'ne.
Another saying of His was this: "The Kingdom of God is as if a man scattered seed over the ground:
27 Kriteno umasenegeno feru ene kenage'enena hageno, ana avimza avimo'a ru hanana huno hagegeno, anama hageana nankna huno hage'neo agra ontahine.
he spends days and nights, now awake, now asleep, while the seed sprouts and grows tall, he knows not how.
28 Mopamo'a agra'a azerinena higeno ne'zama'a rente'ne, esera asina reno rampa'a fore huteno, anante amosare aheno, ramparera ne'zana rente avinete.
Of itself the land produces the crop-- first the blade, then the ear; afterwards the perfect grain is seen in the ear.
29 Anantera raga'a renteno nena hutegeno, agena kazaki kazinteti eme taga hu'ne. Na'ankure hozama hamarekna egeno'e.
But no sooner is the crop ripe, than he sends the reapers, because the time of harvest has come."
30 Hagi Jisasi'a mago'ane anage huno zamantahige'ne, Inankna ke hunteta Anumzamofo kumakura hugahune. Inankna fronka ke hunteta eriama hugahune?
Another saying of His was this: "How are we to picture the Kingdom of God? or by what figure of speech shall we represent it?
31 Masteti raga'agna hunege'za mopafi negrize, ama mopafima me'nea avimzana agatereno onensatfa hu'ne.
It is like a mustard-seed, which, when sown in the earth, is the smallest of all the seeds in the world;
32 Hagi kritageno'a hageno nena huno, maka hozafima me'nea ne'zana ra huno agetenereno, rama'a azankuna'a hageno vuno eno higeno, maka afi' namamo'za ana zafamofo tonapi nona eme kigahaze.
yet when sown it springs up and becomes larger than all the herbs, and throws out great branches, so that the birds build under its shadow."
33 Ana nehuno rama'a fronka kefinti zamagrama antahi ama' hanaza avamente zamasami'ne.
With many such parables He used to speak the Message to them according to their capacity for receiving it.
34 Agra mago'a kema hunakura fronka kefintike zamasmi'ne. Ana hu'neanagi amage'ma nentaza disaipol nagamo'zama zamagrake'ma mani'nageno, eriama huno maka'zana zamasami'ne.
But except in figurative language He spoke nothing to them; while to His own disciples He expounded everything, in private.
35 Hagi ananzupa kinagasegeno Jisasi'a amage nentaza disaipol naga'agura anage hu'ne, Erinketa kantu kaziga tinkenare vamneno huno hige'za,
The same day, in the evening, He said to them, "Let us cross to the other side."
36 vahe krerfa zamatrete'za Jisasi'ma mani'nea votifi mareri'za vazageno, mago'a ventea zamagrane vu'naze.
So they got away from the crowd, and took Him--as He was--in the boat; and other boats accompanied Him.
37 Nevazageno tusi'a ununko atuno, tina erikranto kranto nehuno, ana votifi timo'a marevite'za higeno, timpi votimo'a tami'za hu'ne.
But a heavy squall came on, and the waves were now dashing into the boat, so that it was fast filling.
38 Hagi Jisasi'a votimofona arigarega fita runo mase'negeza, azeri oti'za anage Agrikura hu'naze. Rempi hurami ne'moka, timo'ma tazeri nakri'za nehiana nonkano?
But He Himself was in the stern asleep, with His head on the cushion: so they woke Him. "Rabbi," they cried, "is it nothing to you that we are drowning?"
39 Anante otino zaho'mofona kesuno, Tami avazago huno timofona higeno, akoheno urami avazagene.
So He roused Himself and rebuked the wind, and said to the waves, "Silence! Be still!" The wind sank, and a perfect calm set in.
40 Ana higeno Jisasi'a anage huno zmantahige'ne, Nahigetma amanahu huta koro nehaze? Tamentintia nosazo?
"Why are you so timid?" He asked; "have you still no faith?"
41 Ana nehige'za zamagra tusi'a zamagogo fege'za, inankna ne'mo kea nehigeno zahomo'ene timokea ke'a antahinezmi'e hu'za hu'naze.
Then they were filled with terror, and began to say to one another, "Who is this, then? For even wind and sea obey Him."
