1 Hagi ana knafina maka veamo'za mago'ene eritru hazageno, ne'zana omanegeno, Jisasi'a amage'ma nentaza disaipol naga ke hige'za ageno anage huno zamasmi'ne.
During those days, a large crowd of people gathered again. [After they had been there a couple days], they had no food to eat. So Jesus summoned the disciples [to come closer] and then he said to them,
2 Nagra ama vea krerfagura nasunku huzmantoe. Na'ankure zamagra tagufa kna nagri'enena mani'zageno, ne'zama ne'zana omane'ne.
“This is the third day that these people have been with me, and they have nothing [left] to eat, so now I feel very sorry for them.
3 Nagrama huzmantesuge'za kuma zimirega zamaga'ma netesige'za vanu'za, mago'amo'za afeteti e'nazanki'za kantega utraka hugahaze.
Furthermore, if I send them home [while they are still] hungry, [some of] them will faint on the way home, because some of them have come from far away.”
4 Hige'za Agri amage'ma nentza disaipol naga'mo'za anankemofo nona'a anage hu'za asami'naze, vahe omani mopafi mani'nonanki inantegati ne'zana erizamisunke'za neganare hugahaze?
[Knowing that he was suggesting that they give the people something to eat, one of] his disciples replied, “(We cannot possibly find food to satisfy this crowd, here in this place where no people live!/How can we find food to satisfy this crowd, here in this place where no people live?)” [RHQ]
5 Hazageno Jisasi'a huno, Nama'a breti eri'naze? huno zamantahigege'za, 7ni'a breti eri'none,
Jesus asked them, “How many loaves of bread do you have?” They replied, “[We have] seven [flat loaves].”
6 hazageno, Jisasi'a ana maka veara mopafi maniho huno zamasamige'za manizageno, 7ni'a bretia erino Anumzamofo susu hunteteno, tamanasino amage'ma nentaza disaipol nagara zamige'za, ana veara refko hu'za zami'naze.
Jesus commanded the crowd, “Sit down on the ground!” [After they sat down], he took the seven loaves, he thanked [God for them], he broke them [into pieces] and started giving them to his disciples in order that they might distribute them [to the people].
7 Ana nehazageno onensa nozamene mago'a me'negeno erino Anumzamofo susu hunteteno, amagema nentazana disaipol nagakura eritma zamiho huno zamasmi'ne.
[They found that] they [also] had a few small [dried] fish. So after he thanked God for these, he told the disciples, “Distribute these also.” [After they distributed the bread and fish to the crowd],
8 Maka vahe'mo'za ana ne'za nenageno zamu hige'za ankra'ama atrazama'a, amagema nentaza disaipol naga'mo'za 7ni'a ra eka eka kupi zogiri avite'naze.
the people ate this food and they had plenty [to] satisfy [them]. [The disciples] collected the pieces of food that were left over. [They filled] seven large baskets full of those pieces.
9 Ana vahera 4tauseni'a vahe nazamo'za netageno, huzmantege'za vu'za e'za hu'naze.
[They estimated that] there were about 4,000 people [who ate on that day].
10 Jisasi'a anama huteno, ame huno amage'ma nentaza disaipol naga'ane votifi mareri'za Talmanuta kaziga vu'naze.
Then Jesus dismissed the crowd. Immediately after that, he got into the boat along with his disciples, and they went [around Lake Galilee] to Dalmanutha district.
11 Anante Farisi vahe'mo'za e'za Jisasina ke hakare hunte'za, Monafinti ruzahu hankave kaguvaza erifore hugeta kamneno hu'za rehe'za ke'naze.
[In those days some] Pharisees came to Jesus. They asked him [to perform] a miracle [that would show that] God [had sent him]. They wanted to [find a way by which they could] convince the people to reject him. [So] they started to argue with him.
12 Hagi Jisasina rimpamo'a kna nehigeno anage hu'ne. Na'a hige'za meni knafi vahe'mo'za avame'za kenakura nahaze? Nagra tamage hu'na neramasamue, mago avame'zana ama knafi vahe'mo'za onkegahaze.
Jesus sighed quietly to himself, and then he said, “I am disgusted that [RHQ], [even though] you people have seen how I [have healed people], you keep asking me to perform miracles! Note this: Such a miracle will certainly not be shown {I will certainly not show such a miracle} [just] for you people!”
13 Ana huteno zamatreno ete votifi marerino kantu kaziga vu'ne.
Then he left them. He got into the boat again, along [with his disciples], and they went further around [Lake Galilee].
14 Hagi amage'ma nentaza disaipol naga'mo'za zmagekani'za bretia eri'za omazanagi, magoke bretige votifina me'nege'za vu'naze.
The disciples had forgotten to bring along [enough] food. Specifically, they had only one flat loaf of bread with them in the boat.
15 Nevazageno Jisasi'a huno, Farisi vahe'mokizmi zistigu'ene kini ne' Heroti zistigura kva hiho.
[As they were going], Jesus warned them against [the attitudes the Pharisees and Herod Antipas had, attitudes that were having a bad effect on other people. He did this by telling them a parable]. He said, “Be careful! Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod!”
16 Hige'za zamagra zamagra ke huge antahige hu'za bretima erita ome'nona zanku nehugahie hu'za hu'naze.
[The disciples misunderstood him]. So they said to one another, “[He must have said that] because we have no bread.”
17 Nehazageno Jisasi'a antahino keno nehuno, Nahigeta breti omane'nea zankura huge antahige nehaze? Tamagra ketma antahi amara osu'nazafi? Tamagri tamagu'amo'a eriginefi?
Jesus knew [what they were discussing among themselves]. So he said to them, “([I am disappointed that you are] discussing about your not having enough bread!/Why are you discussing about your not having enough bread?) [RHQ] (You should understand by now [that I can provide miraculously for you if you need food!/Why do you not yet perceive or understand that I can provide miraculously for you if you need food]?) [RHQ] (You are not thinking!/Why are you not thinking?) [RHQ]
18 Tamavurga me'neana ke so'e nosazafi? Tamagesama me'neana antahi so'e nosazo? Tamagrira tamage'kaninegahie.
(I am also disappointed that, although you have eyes, you do not [understand what you] see!/Why is it that, although you have eyes, you do not [understand what you] see?) [RHQ] You have ears, but you do not understand [what I say] [RHQ]!” [Then he asked], “Do you not remember [what happened]
19 Ko'ma 5fu'a breti tamanasina, 5 tauseni'a venene zami'noge'za nene'za atrazama'a, nama'a eka eka kupi erivite'naze? 12fu'a eka eka kupi zogiri'none hu'naze.
when I broke [only] five loaves [and fed] the 5.000 people [RHQ]? [Not only was everyone satisfied, but there was food left over] How many baskets full of pieces of bread [that were left over] did you collect?” They replied, “We collected twelve baskets full.”
20 Hagi 7ni'a bretireti tamanasi'na 4tauseni'a vahe'ma zami'noge'za nene'za atrazama'a, nama'a eka eka kupi zogiri avite'naze? Hige'za 7ni'a kupi zogiri'none hu'za hu'naze.
Then he asked, “When I broke the seven loaves in order to [feed] the 4,000 people, [again when everyone had plenty to eat], how many large baskets [of pieces of bread that were left over] did you collect?” They replied, “[We collected] seven [large baskets full].”
21 Anante Jisasi'a anage huno zamasami'ne, E'ina'ma hu'noazankura menina tamagra tamagesa antahi'ama nosazafi?
Then he kept saying to them, “([I am disappointed that] you do not understand yet [that you should never worry that you do not have enough food]!/Why do you not understand yet [that you should never worry that you do not have enough food]?)” [RHQ]
22 Ana hige'za zamagra Bedsaita kumate azageno, mago'a vahe'mo'za avusu hu'nea ne' avare'za Jisasinte e'naze. Avurgare avako hinkeno so'e huntenogu hanaveti'za Jisasina antahige'naze.
They arrived [in the boat] at Bethsaida [town]. People brought to Jesus a blind man and earnestly requested that Jesus touch him [in order to heal him].
23 Ana hazageno, Jisasi'a avusu hu'nea ne'mofo azante avazu huno kumara atreno megi'a vuteno, Jisasi'a avufi avetu ahenenteno, azanu avako nehuno, Mago'azana negano? Huno antahigene.
Jesus took the hand of the blind man, led him outside the town, he put his saliva on the man’s eyes, he put his hands on the man, and then he asked him, “Do you see anything?”
24 Higeno kesga huno avua negeno, Vahera vano nehazage'na zamagoanagi, zafamo vano nehiaza nehige'na nezmagoe huno hu'ne.
The man looked up and then he said, “[Yes], I see people! They are walking around, but I cannot see them [clearly]. They look like trees!”
25 Anante Jisasi'a mago'ene azanu avurgare avako higeno, ana ne'mofo avurgamo'a hari higeno, ke ankereno negeno maka'zana keama huno ke'ne.
Then Jesus again touched the eyes of the blind man. The man looked intently and at that moment he was completely healed! He could see everything clearly.
26 Anante Jisasi'a hunenteno, Kumapina ufrege efrege osunka, fatgo hunka nonkarega vuo huno asami'ne.
Jesus said to him, “Do not go into the town! [First go straight home and tell the people there about what I did]!” Then he sent the man to his home.
27 Jisasi'a amage nentaza disaipol naga'ane Sisaria Filipai kumatamimpi vu'naze. Kantegama nevu'za Jisasi'a anage huno zmantahige'ne, Nagrikura vahe'mo'za iza'e hu'za neheze?
Jesus and the disciples [left Bethsaida town and went to the villages near Caesarea Philippi town]. On the way he questioned them, “Who do people say that I [really] am?”
28 Hagi mago'amo'za, hu'za mono ti frezamante'nea Joni'e hu'za nehaze. Hagi mago'a mo'za, kasnampa ne' Elaija'e hu'za nehaze. Hagi mago'amo'za korapa kasnampa vahepinti mago'zmimo'e hu'za neheze.
They replied, “[Some people say] that you are John the Baptizer, [who has come back to life again]. Others say [that you are the prophet] Elijah [who has returned from heaven as God promised]. And others say that you are one of the [other former] prophets [who has come back to life again].”
29 Anage hazageno Jisasi'a zamagri zamantahigeno, Hagi tamagra iza'e hutma Nagrikura nehaze? Higeno Pita'a kenona huno, kagra Kraisige, Anumzamo'ma huhamprino vahe'ama zamavaregahanema hu'nea nere hu'ne.
He asked them, “What about you? Who do you say that I am?” Peter replied to him, “[We believe that] you are the Messiah!”
30 Agra hu hankavetino mago vahera ana naneke huama hutma ozmasmiho huno zamasmi'ne.
Then Jesus warned them strongly that they should not tell anyone [yet that he was the Messiah].
31 Anante Jisasi'a erigafa huno amage'ma nentaza disaipol naga'a rempi huzamino, Vahe'mofo Mofavremo'a rama'a ata e'nerisigeno, mono kva vahe'mo'zane, ugagota kva vahe'mo'zane, kasegere ugagota hu'naza vahe'mo'za zamefi humiza ahefrisageno, tagufagna maseteno otigahie huno zamasami'ne.
Then Jesus began to teach them, “[Even though] I am the one who came from heaven, it is necessary that I suffer very much. It is also necessary that I be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the men who teach the [Jewish] laws {that the elders, the chief priests, and the men who teach the [Jewish] laws reject me}, and that I be killed {they kill me}. But on the third day [after I am killed I] will become alive again.”
32 Hagi ana nanekea huama huno amate zmasamigeno, Pita'a nentahino Jisasina avaregantiteno, agafa huno e'inahu kea osuo huno kesu'ne.
He said this to them clearly. But Peter took Jesus aside and then, [because he assumed that the Messiah would never die], he started to rebuke Jesus [for talking about dying].
33 Hianagi Jisasi'a rukrahe huno, amage nentaza disaipol nagatega nezmageno Pitana kesuno, Sataga manignenka namefiga'a evuo, Anumzamofo antahintahi novaririnanki, vahe'mofo antahintahi nevaririne.
Jesus turned around and looked at his disciples. Then he rebuked Peter, saying, “Stop thinking like that! Satan [is causing you to talk like that! Instead] of wanting what God wants [me to do, you are wanting] me to do [only] what [most] people [would want me to do].”
34 Anante Jisasi'a maka veamokizmi ke hige'za, amage'ma nentaza disaipol naga'ene emetru hazageno, anage huno zamasami'ne, Mago vahe'mo nagri namage'ma antenaku'ma hanuno'a, agra'a avesi'zana netreno, keka zafa'a erigofino namage egahie.
Then he summoned the crowd along with his disciples [so that they might listen to him]. He told them, “If any one [of you] wants to be my disciple, you must not do [only] what you yourself want to do. Specifically, you must [be willing to allow people to hurt you and to disgrace you. That is what they do to criminals] who are forced to carry crosses [MET] [to the places where they will be crucified]. That is what anyone who wants to be my disciple must do.
35 Na'ankure iza'o, agra'a agu'vazino eri so'e huku hanimo'a, asimu'a atregahie. Iza'o nagriteku'ene Knare Musenkerema asimu'a atresimo'a agu'vazigahie.
[You must do that], because those who try to save their lives [by denying that they belong to me when people want to kill them for believing in me] will not live [eternally], but those who are killed because of being my [disciples] and [because of telling others my] good message will live [forever with me].
36 Mago vahe'mo'ma ama mopafi fenoza eri atruma nehanigeno, agu amema'a fnanema haniana, nankna aza hu'za erigahie?
People might get everything [they want] in this world, but (they are really gaining nothing if they do not get eternal life [because they do not become my disciples!]/what will they gain if they do not get eternal life [because they do not become my disciples]?) [RHQ]
37 Na'a vahe'mo'a asimuma erisigura nona'a huno Anumzamofona amigahie?
([Think carefully about the fact that] there is absolutely nothing that people can give [to God] that would enable them to gain eternal life!/Is there anything that a person can give [to God] in order to gain eternal life?) [RHQ]
38 Iza'o ama knafi keontahi kumike vahepi, Nagriku'ene Nanekenimofoma agaze huntesimofona, henka Vahe'mofo Mofavremo Nafa'amofo hanavefima routage ankero vahe'ane esuno'a, Agranena zamagaze hunte'nesamokizmia, eme agaze huzmantegahie.
And think about this: Those who refuse [to say that they belong to] me and who reject what I say in these days when many people have turned away [from God] and are very sinful, I, the one who came from heaven, will also refuse [to say that they belong to me] when I come back with the holy angels and have the glorious brightness that my Father has!”
