< Marko 4 >
1 Ambile okwiigisha lindi ku njenjekela ya kumwalo. Na liijo lyafu nilikofyanya limusingie, nengila mu bhwato bhuli munyanja, no kwinyanja. Liijo lyona lyaliga liliku njenjekela ya kumwalo mulufuka.
Again he began to teach by the seaside. A great multitude was gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat in the sea and sat down. All the multitude were on the land by the sea.
2 Mbe nabheigisha masango mafu kwe bhijejekanyo, naika nabho kwa meigisho gae.
He taught them many things in parables, and told them in his teaching,
3 Mutegeleshe, omubhibhi ajie okubhibha.
“Listen! Behold, the farmer went out to sow.
4 Anu aliga nabhibha, jimbegu ejindi janguye ku njila, na jinyonyi nijija nijijilya.
As he sowed, some seed fell by the road, and the birds came and devoured it.
5 Jimbegu ejindi janguye kwitale, anu galiga gatalio mayalu mafu. Okumala nijinywagala kwa insonga jaliga jitana mayalu go kwiya.
Others fell on the rocky ground, where it had little soil, and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of soil.
6 Mbe nawe lisubha lyejile lyauluka, janywagae, kulwo kubha jaliga jitana misi, nijuma.
When the sun had risen, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
7 Jimbegu ejindi jaguye agati-gati ya mawa. Amawa nigakula nigajiiganya, jitateyeko matwasyo gona gona
Others fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
8 Jimbibho ejindi jaguye ku mayalu ge kisi na nijitwasha amatwasho kenu nijikula no kwiyongesha, nejindi nijitwasha kukila makumi gasatu, ne jindi makumi mukaga, nejindi egana”.
Others fell into the good ground and yielded fruit, growing up and increasing. Some produced thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times as much.”
9 Na naika ati, wona wona unu Ali na matwi go kungwa, nongwe”.
He said, “Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.”
10 Yesu anu aliga Ali enyelela, bhanu bhaliga ayei nage na bhalya ekumi na bhabhili bhamubhusishe okulubhana ne bhijejekanyo.
When he was alone, those who were around him with the twelve asked him about the parables.
11 Naika ku bhene, “Kwimwe muyanilwe jibhisike jo bhukama bhwa Nyamuanga. Mbe nawe ku bhanu bhali anja bhuli chinu ni chijejekanyo,
He said to them, “To you is given the mystery of God’s Kingdom, but to those who are outside, all things are done in parables,
12 koleleki bhakalola, ni chimali abhalola, mbe nawe bhatakulola, kulwejo ugwa bhakongwa ni chimali abhongwa, mbe nawe bhatakusombokelwa, labha jitali kutyo bhakaindukile na Nyamuanga akabheswalilie”.
that ‘seeing they may see and not perceive, and hearing they may hear and not understand, lest perhaps they should turn again, and their sins should be forgiven them.’”
13 Naika nabho, “Angu mutakuchimenya echijejekanyo chinu? Omutula atiki okumenya echijejekanyo ebhindi?
He said to them, “Do not you understand this parable? How will you understand all of the parables?
14 Omubhibhi abhibhile omusango.
The farmer sows the word.
15 Abhandi ni bhalya bhanu bhalagae ku mbali ya injila, Anu omusango gwabhibhilwe. Mbe bhejile bhagungwa, Shetani naja no kugugega omusango gunu gwabhibhilwe mu moyo jebhwe.
The ones by the road are the ones where the word is sown; and when they have heard, immediately Satan comes and takes away the word which has been sown in them.
16 Na bhandi ni bhalya bhanu bhabhibhilwe kwi tale, bhanu, ungwa bhakagungwa omusango, kwo bhwangu nibhagulamila kwo bhukondeleywe.
These in the same way are those who are sown on the rocky places, who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with joy.
17 Kulwo kubha bhatana misi jona jona mu myoyo jebhwe, nawe abhegumilisha kwa mwanya mufui. jikabhonekana jinyako no kunyasibwa ungwa bhikaja kulwa insonga yo musango, ao nao nibhekujula.
They have no root in themselves, but are short-lived. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately they stumble.
18 Na bhandi ni bhalya bhanu bhabhibhilwe mu mawa. abhagungwa omusango,
Others are those who are sown among the thorns. These are those who have heard the word,
19 mbe nawe amaangaiko ge Chalo, no bhujigijigi bhwo ebhinu, bhyo bhunibhi no bhuligisi bhwe misango ejindi, nibhibhengila no kuguiganya omusango, no kusigwa okutwasha amatwasho. (aiōn )
and the cares of this age (aiōn ), and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.
20 Okumala bhalio bhanu bhabhibhilwe ku mayalu ge kisi. Nibhongwa omusango no kugulamila no kutwasha amatwasho: abhandi makumi gasatu na bhandi makumi mukaga, na bhandi egana limwi”.
Those which were sown on the good ground are those who hear the word, accept it, and bear fruit, some thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times.”
21 Yesu nabhabhwila, “Angu ungwa ukaleta itala munyumba oita emwalo ye chitukulu, amwi mwifufu lwo bhulili? Oileta munju no kuita ingulu ye chigango.
He said to them, “Is a lamp brought to be put under a basket or under a bed? Is not it put on a stand?
22 Kwokubha chitalio chona chona chinu chiselekele chinu chitalimenyekana abhwelu.
For there is nothing hidden except that it should be made known, neither was anything made secret but that it should come to light.
23 Akabha alio owa matwi go kungwa, mbe nongwe”.
If any man has ears to hear, let him hear.”
24 Nabhabhwila, “Mubhe bhekomelesha mu chinu omungwa, kwo kubha indengo inu omulengelamo niyo one mulilengelwamo, na eyongesibhwa kwimwe.
He said to them, “Take heed what you hear. With whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you; and more will be given to you who hear.
25 Ku nsonga ati unu alinacho, kalamila bhyafu, na ulya unu atanacho, ukusoka ku mwene bhiligengwa nolwo bhilya bhinu alinabhyo”.
For whoever has, to him more will be given; and he who does not have, even that which he has will be taken away from him.”
26 Mbe naika, “Obhukama bhwa Nyamuanga obhususanyibhwa no munu unu kabhibha jinjuma ku mayalu ge kisi.
He said, “God’s Kingdom is as if a man should cast seed on the earth,
27 Ejile amama mugeta no kwimuka katondo, nasanga jaletele emitenga no kukula, nolwo kutyo atakumenya kutyo jabhonekene.
and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should spring up and grow, though he does not know how.
28 Echalo echisosha jinjuma echenela; okwamba amabhabhi, okumala echangala, okumala jinjuma jinu jikomee.
For the earth bears fruit by itself: first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.
29 Mbe mu mwanya gunu injuma ikaya okumala nusila omwolo, ku nsonga ligesa lyakingile”.
But when the fruit is ripe, immediately he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.”
30 Mbe naika, “chibhususanyishe Obhukama bhwa Nyamuanga na chinu ki, amwi chelesha chijejekanyoki echo kwelesha?
He said, “How will we liken God’s Kingdom? Or with what parable will we illustrate it?
31 Nilwa injuma ya haradali, yejile yayambwa yaliga noto muno kukila jinjuma jone muchalo.
It’s like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, though it is less than all the seeds that are on the earth,
32 Nolwo, mu mwanya gwo kuyambwa, eikula nibha Nene kukila emikubhi jona eja mwisambu, na eikola amatabhi manene nolwo jinyonyi ja mulwile ejitula okutamo obhunsuli bhwajo mu mbeo yalyo”.
yet when it is sown, grows up and becomes greater than all the herbs, and puts out great branches, so that the birds of the sky can lodge under its shadow.”
33 Mu bhijejekanyo bhyafu abeigisishe omusango, lwa kutyo bhatulaga okumenya,
With many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear it.
34 na ataikaga nabho atali mu bhijejekanyo. Mbe nawe mu mwanya gunu aliga Ali enyele-la, abhelesishe bhuli chinu abheigisibhwa bhae.
Without a parable he did not speak to them; but privately to his own disciples he explained everything.
35 Mu lunaku olwo, mu mwanya gwa kegolo gwejile gwakinga, nabhabhwila, “Chigende ku lubhala lwa kabhili”.
On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let’s go over to the other side.”
36 kulwejo nibhalisiga liijo, nibhamugega Yesu, mu mwanya ogwo aliga engie mubhwato. Amato agandi galiga amwi nage.
Leaving the multitude, they took him with them, even as he was, in the boat. Other small boats were also with him.
37 Mbe omuyaga mwafu ogwe chiule na amakonjo galiga nigengisha amaji mu bhwato no bhwato mbubha bhwejue.
A big wind storm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so much that the boat was already filled.
38 Mbe nawe Yesu omwene aliga ali kuseji, amamile ali ku musagulo. Nibhamulafya, nibhaika, “Mwiigisha, awe utakuchikukwa eswe chikafwa?”
He himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him up and asked him, “Teacher, do not you care that we are dying?”
39 Nemuka, nagugonya omuyaga na naibhwila inyanja, “'Cholela, omulembe”. Omuyaga nigutemekela, na nilibha etole enene.
He awoke and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” The wind ceased and there was a great calm.
40 Nabhabhusha ati, kulwaki omubhaya? Angu mutali no kwikilisha kutiki?
He said to them, “Why are you so afraid? How is it that you have no faith?”
41 Nibhengilwa no bhubha bhwafu mu myoyo jebhwe nibhaikana abhene kwa bhene, unu niga lindi, kunsoga nolwo omuyaga na inyaja ebhimubhaya?”.
They were greatly afraid and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?”
