Mareka 6
1 Imi nayenda kuzwa mwateni ni kwiza mwitoropo mumuzi wakwe, ni varutwana vakwe vavamwichilili.
Leaving that place He came into His own country, accompanied by His disciples.
2 Imi Mukivero hausika, avaruti mu maSinagoge. Vuungi vwa vaantu vuva muzuwi nivaziyeleha. Nivati, “Aba wani kuhi izi intuto?” “Maanonzi aa avahewa kwali?” “Imakazonzi izi zatenda chamayanza akwe”?
On the Sabbath He proceeded to teach in the synagogue; and many, as they heard Him, were astonished. "Where did he acquire all this?" they asked. "What is this wisdom that has been given to him? And what are these marvellous miracles which his hands perform?
3 “Kanji muvezi, mwana Maria ni mukulwe wa Jakovo ni Jose ni Juda ni Simoni? Vanchizye kavahena hanu naswe”? Mi vavaziyezwe chaJesu.
Is not this the carpenter, Mary's son, the brother of James and Joses, Jude and Simon? And do not his sisters live here among us?" So they turned angrily away.
4 Mi Jesu chati kuvali, “Muporofita kayelele kuvuzwa ikute, mbwiteli mwitoropo mwazwa ni muvakwakwe, ni vamunzubo yakwe.”
But Jesus said to them, "There is no Prophet without honour except in his own country, and among his own relatives, and in his own home."
5 Ava kangwa kutenda mutendo ikolete, mbwiteli kuvika mayanza akwe havantu vache valwele ni kuvahoza.
And He could not do any miracle there, except that He laid His hands on a few who were out of health and cured them; and
6 Kusazumina kwavo kuva mukomokisi. Nicha yenda vuzimbuluka muminzi nakavuruta.
He wondered at their unbelief. So He went round the adjacent villages, teaching.
7 Ni chasumpa vena ikumi limwiina nivovere ni kutanga kuvatuma kunze, vovere cha vovere, nikuvaha ziho he inhuho zisaJololi,
Then summoning the Twelve to Him, He proceeded to send them out by twos, and gave them authority over the foul spirits.
8 Ni kuba laera kuti kakwina chiva hinda mulwendo lwavo, mbwiteri inkoli vulyo: kakwina inkoko, kakwina mukotana, imi kakwina mali mulutunga lwavo,
He charged them to take nothing for the journey except a stick; no bread, no bag, and not a penny in their pockets,
9 kono kuzwata insangu, nikusa livwika inguvo zovere.
but to go wearing sandals. "And do not," He said, "put on an extra under garment.
10 Ni chati kuvali, “Monse mumwinjirira mwinzuvo, mwikale mo mbwita hete nimusiire icho chivaka.
Wherever you enter a house, make it your home till you leave that place.
11 Imi itoropo isete imitambule kamba kusamiteeka, hamusiya icho chivaka, muzukutule isuko kumatende enu ivevupaki kuvali.”
But wherever they will not receive you or listen to you, when you leave shake off the very dust from under your feet to bear witness concerning them."
12 Vavayendi ni vaya vuruta kuti vaantu vafutatile zivi zavo.
So they set out, and preached in order that men might repent.
13 Niva zwisa madimona maangi, ni kusinga vantu vangi valwala ioli ni kuvahoza.
Many demons they expelled, and many invalids they anointed with oil and cured.
14 Heroda hazuwa izi, kakuti izina lya Jesu livavuvaani. Vamwi vavali kucho, “Johani Mukolovezi ava kavuswa kuvafwile imi chovuti, izi ziho zina imakazo zitendete mwali.”
King Herod heard of all this (for the name of Jesus had become widely known), and he kept saying, "John the Baptizer has come back to life, and that is why these miraculous Powers are working in him."
15 Vamwi ni vaati, “Nji Eliya”. Kono vamwi nivati, “Muporofita, uvu nji vumwi wavaporofita vamwi nako zentanzi.”
Others asserted that He was Elijah. Others again said, "He is a Prophet, like one of the great Prophets."
16 Kono linu Heroda hazuwa ichi nacho, “Johani, uni vakosoli mutwi avavuuswa.”
But when Herod heard of Him, he said, "The John, whom I beheaded, has come back to life."
17 Mukuti Heroda avatumini kusuminwa kwa Johani niku muhakila muntolongo kaha mulandu wa Herodiasi (mwi hyabwe wa mwanchakwe Filipi), kakuti chava musesete.
For Herod himself had sent and had had John arrested and had kept him in prison in chains, for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife; because he had married her.
18 Mukuti Johani avawambiri Heroda, “Kakuyelele kwako kuva ni mwihyabwe wa mwancako.”
For John had repeatedly told Herod, "You have no right to be living with your brother's wife."
19 “Kono Herodiyasi nakwatilila havuvengi kumulwisanisa, ni kusaka kumwihaya, kono kana avawoli,
Therefore Herodias hated him and wished to take his life, but could not;
20 Mukuti Heroda avatite Johani; avezi kuti ushiyeme imi mukwame yojolola, na muvika neenza. Muku tekeleza kwali nikwamuha kunyelwa kukando, imi namuzuwisisa chakusanga.
for Herod stood in awe of John, knowing him to be an upright and holy man, and he protected him. After listening to him he was in great perplexity, and yet he found a pleasure in listening.
21 Linu nikwasika mukwa Heroda hava ni luzuva lwakuzalwa kakwe ni chatenda mulalilo ni manduna vakwe, ni vayendisi venkondo, nivakulwana vamwa Galileya.
At length Herodias found her opportunity. Herod on his birthday gave a banquet to the nobles of his court and to the tribunes and the principal people in Galilee,
22 Mwana a Herodiasi wa mukazana iyemwine neza ni kuvazanina, nicha sangisa Heroda niva vayenzi vakwe vavasumpwa. Simwine naati kumukazana, “Nikumbiire chimwi nichimwi chosaka imi municikuhe.”
at which Herodias's own daughter came in and danced, and so charmed Herod and his guests that he said to her, "Ask me for anything you please, and I will give it to you."
23 Chakoonka kwali naati, “Chonse chete ukumbire kwangu, munichi kuhe, ku sika hakati kepuso yangu.”
He even swore to her, "Whatever you ask me for I will give you, up to half my kingdom."
24 Naya hanze nichakati kuvanyina, “Chinzi chete nimukumbiire?” Nacho, “Mutwi wa Johani Mukolovezi,”
She at once went out and said to her mother: "What shall I ask for?" "The head of John the Baptizer," she replied.
25 Hohwaho nenjila chokuhwela kwa simwine ni kukumbiira, naati, “Nisaka kuti unihe hahanu, hakagwetere, mutwi wa Johani Mukolovezi”.
The girl immediately came in, in haste, to the King and made her request. "My desire is," she said, "that you will give me, here and now, on a dish, the head of John the Baptist."
26 Nihakuva kuti ichi chiva sasamisi simwine, kana avali kuwola kumukanina chava kumbiiri kevaka lya kulikonka kwava tendi nicha veene vakwe.
Then the King, though intensely sorry, yet for the sake of his oaths, and of his guests, would not break faith with her.
27 Imi simwine cha tuma isole yozwa kuvaganteri ni kumulaera kumuletela mutwi wa Johani. Muganteri nayenda kuka mu kosola mutwi muntolongo.
He at once sent a soldier of his guard with orders to bring John's head. So he went and beheaded him in the prison,
28 Naaleta mutwi wakwe hakagwetere niku uha mukazana, mi mukazana chauha vanyina.
and brought his head on a dish and gave it to the young girl, who gave it to her mother.
29 Mi varutwana vakwe, chokuzuwa ichi, chivakeza nikuhinda muviri ni kuka u uunga mwikuumbu.
When John's disciples heard of it, they came and took away his body and laid it in a tomb.
30 Mi vapositola, chivakungana kuzimbuluka Jesu, ku muwambira zonse zivava kapangi ni kuruta.
When the Apostles had re-assembled round Jesus, they reported to Him all they had done and all they had taught.
31 Ni chata kuvali, “Mwize muzwe muvene muye muchivaka chisena vaantu ni kukapumula inakozana.” Mukuti vuungi vuvakwiza ni kuyenda, imi kena vavawani nanga inako yokulya.
Then He said to them, "Come away, all of you, to a quiet place, and rest awhile." For there were many coming and going, so that they had no time even for meals.
32 Imi nivayenda muchikepe muchivaka chisena vaantu avoveene.
Accordingly they sailed away in the boat to a solitary place apart.
33 Kono vava vavoni havakatuka mi vuungi ni bwaveziva, nivatilila kwateni hamwiina chamatende kuzwa mwitoropo yonse, ni kukasika lwentanzi kwavo.
But the people saw them going, and many knew them; and coming by land they ran together there from all the neighbouring towns, and arrived before them.
34 Havasika herizo, chavona chinavuungi imi chava niinse havali kakuti vavali kukola sina imberere zisena mulisi. Nichatanga kuvaruta zintu zingi.
So when Jesus landed, He saw a vast multitude; and His heart was moved with pity for them, because they were like sheep which have no shepherd, and He proceeded to teach them many things.
35 Chitengwaana, varutwana vakwe niveza kwali nikucho, “Ichi chivaka kachina vaantu nikuti cheli chitengu.
By this time it was late; so His disciples came to Him, and said, "This is a lonely place, and the hour is now late:
36 Uvatumine valiyendeze munkanda zina havubbali ni muminzi kuka liulila zakulya avoveene.”
send them away that they may go to the farms and villages near here and buy themselves something to eat."
37 Kono netava ni kucho kuvali, “Inwe muvahe zakulya.” Chiva cho kwali, “Tuwola kukawula inkoko ya mali a mianda yovere nikwiza kuvaha valye?”
"Give them food yourselves," He replied. "Are we," they asked, "to go and buy two hundred shillings' worth of bread and give them food?"
38 Nacho kuvali, “Zongai ziinkwa zimukwete? Muyende mukavone.” Hava sakisisa, nivaati, “Ziinkwa zimana iyanza ninswi zovere.”
"How many loaves have you?" He inquired; "go and see." So they found out, and said, "Five; and a couple of fish."
39 Chalaera vaantu vonse kwikala hansi halyani iteke.
So He directed them to make all sit down in companies on the green grass.
40 Niveekala muzikwata; zikwata za myandanda ni makumi ahinda iyanza.
And they sat down in rows of hundreds and of fifties.
41 Chahinda ziikwa zimana iyanza ni nswi zovere, nalolele kwiwulu nafuyola niku gamoona ziinkwa nikuziha ku varutwana kuka zininzika havusu vwavaantu. Nicha yavelela inswi zovere mukati kavo voonse.
Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and lifting His eyes to Heaven He blessed the food. Then He broke the loaves into portions which He went on handing to the disciples to distribute; giving pieces also of the two fish to them all.
42 Voonse vavaali mbwita havekuta.
All ate and were fully satisfied.
43 Chivahinda vufwafwaali bwa ziinkwa, nikwizuza ziseye zikwana ikumi nizovere, ni vufwafwali bwenswi.
And they carried away broken portions enough to fill twelve baskets, besides pieces of the fish.
44 Mi vavali vaantu vatenda lule luhinde yanza vavaali ziinkwa.
Those who ate the bread were 5,000 adult men.
45 Hohwaho nachita kuti varutwana vakwe vechile muchikepe vahitile havusu vwake kuya kuimwi imbali, kwa Bethesaida, naatumina chinavuungi kuyenda.
Immediately afterwards He made His disciples go on board the boat and cross over to Bethsaida, leaving Him behind to dismiss the crowd.
46 Chinga vayenda, nayenda herundu kuku lapera.
He then bade the people farewell, and went away up the hill to pray.
47 Masiku nieza, imi chikepe chichivena hakati kewate, imi aveena yenke hamutunda.
When evening was come, the boat was half way across the Lake, while he Himself was on shore alone.
48 Imi navona kuti vavakwina muvukukutu vukando havati chivaka zuhila kwina luhuho luva kuvalwisa. Munako ya vuune yakuiza neza kuvali, nakavuyenda hewate, imi asake nava hite silubbali.
But when He saw them distressed with rowing (for the wind was against them), towards morning He came towards them walking on the Lake, as if intending to pass them.
49 Kono haba muvona ukavuyenda hewulu lyewate, niva zeza kuti isaku niva huwa, mane chiva tanga ku huwa,
They saw Him walking on the water, and thinking that it was a spirit they cried out;
50 kakuti vavamuboni mi vavasuhite. Imi hohyaho chawamba kuvali nikuvata kuti, “Mulikoze! Jeme! Kanji mutiyi!”
for they all saw Him and were terrified. He, however, immediately spoke to them. "There is no danger," He said; "it is I; be not alarmed."
51 Nenjila muchikepe navo, imi luhuho chilwa siya kuhunga. Imi nivakomokwa.
Then He went up to them on board the boat, and the wind lulled; and they were beside themselves with silent amazement.
52 Mukuti kena vavazuwisisi kuti chiinkwa chitalusa nzi. Imi, inkulo zavo nizakukutuhazwa.
For they had not learned the lesson taught by the loaves, but their minds were dull.
53 Hachiva luutila mwishilya, chiva sika muchivaka Genesereti ni vasiika chikepe.
Having crossed over they drew to land in Gennesaret and came to anchor.
54 Hava zuvuka muchikepe, hahobulyo niva mulemuha.
But no sooner had they gone ashore than the people immediately recognized Him.
55 Nichiva tirira muchikiliti chonse nikutanga kukaleta valwele kwali hamasasa, konse kuvava kuzuwa kuti kwakezite.
Then they scoured the whole district, and began to bring Him the sick on their mats wherever they heard He was.
56 Konse mwavali kwinjira muminzi, kamba mileneñi, kamba munkanda, vava kuvikanga valwele muzibaka zamauzikizo, imi vavali kumu kumbira kuti avazuminine nanga kuwonda kumpera yachizwato chakwe. Imi vuungi vwavo vava kumu kwata vavahozwa.
And enter wherever He might--village or town or hamlet--they laid their sick in the open places, and entreated Him to let them touch were it but the tassel of His robe; and all, whoever touched Him, were restored to health.
