Mareka 7
1 Vafalisi ni vamwi vavañoli vavali kukazwila kwa Jerusalema nivakuungana kumuzimbuluka.
Then the Pharisees and some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem gathered around Jesus,
2 Mi vavavoni kuti vamwi vavarutiwa vavali zilyo ni mayanza enekwe, awo, asasambite.
and they saw some of His disciples eating with hands that were defiled—that is, unwashed.
3 (Mukuti vafalisi ni vonse maJuda kavali mbwita havasamba kumayanza avo; mukuti vechilile chizo chavakulwana.
Now in holding to the tradition of the elders, the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat until they wash their hands ceremonially.
4 Cwale vafalisi havakazwa kuchivaka chamusika, kavali mbwita havasamba. Imi kwina milao mingi ivechilila chentokomelo, kukopanya ni kusambisa inkomoki, impoto, ni kahambwe ke nsipi i venya, mi mane nanga ni zikalo zivaliila.)
And on returning from the market, they do not eat unless they wash. And there are many other traditions for them to observe, including the washing of cups, pitchers, kettles, and couches for dining.
5 Mafalisi ni vañoli ni vavuuza Jesu, “Chinzi varutiwa vako havasayi ka chizo cha Vakulwana, mukuti vavaali zilyo ni mayanza asasambite?”
So the Pharisees and scribes questioned Jesus: “Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders? Instead, they eat with defiled hands.”
6 Kono nati kuvali, “Isaya avaporofiti neenza kuamana nanwe valihele, ava ñoli, 'Ava vantu bani kuteka chamiromo yavo, kono inkulo zavo zinakule naame.
Jesus answered them, “Isaiah prophesied correctly about you hypocrites, as it is written: ‘These people honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me.
7 Kuteemba kusena intuso kuvaniha, kuruta milao yavantu kuva intuto yavo.'
They worship Me in vain; they teach as doctrine the precepts of men.’
8 Musiya intaero zaIreeza muya chamikwa ya chizo chavantu.”
You have disregarded the commandment of God to keep the tradition of men.”
9 Mi a va co kuvali, “Mwizi neenza kukana intaero yaIreza kuti mukuteke chizo chenu!
He went on to say, “You neatly set aside the command of God to maintain your own tradition.
10 Mi Mushe nati, 'Ukuteke iso ni nyoko', ni, 'Iye yowamba vuvi kuvesi kamba vanyina luli kafwe.'
For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and your mother’ and ‘Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.’
11 Kono inwe muti, 'Heba muntu uwambila vesi ni vanyina, “Cinzi ni chinzi intuso zimuvavatambuli kwangu Inkoombani,” (nji kuta kuti, 'Kuva hewa Ireeza')-
But you say that if a man says to his father or mother, ‘Whatever you would have received from me is Corban’ (that is, a gift devoted to God),
12 linu kosiwoli kumuzuminina kutenda chimwi kuvesi ni vanyina.
he is no longer permitted to do anything for his father or mother.
13 Mu kwete ku panga mulao wa Ireeza kuvula intuso chachizo chenu chimu vatambiki hansi. Ni zingi zintu ziswana zimucita.”
Thus you nullify the word of God by the tradition you have handed down. And you do so in many such matters.”
14 Cha sumpa chinavuungi hape ni kuwamba kuvali, “Muteke kwangu, muvonse, ni kuzuwisisa.
Once again Jesus called the crowd to Him and said, “All of you, listen to Me and understand:
15 Kakwina chizwa hanze yomuntu icho cimusihisa hachinjila mwali. Nji chizwa hanze yomuntu icho chimusihisa.”
Nothing that enters a man from the outside can defile him; but the things that come out of a man, these are what defile him.”
16 (Wina matwi aku zuwa a zuwe).
17 Haho Jesu hasiya chinavuungi ni kwinjila munzubo, varutwana vakwe chivamuvuza kuamana ninguli.
After Jesus had left the crowd and gone into the house, His disciples inquired about the parable.
18 Jesu nati, “Nenwe lyaho kamuzuwisisi? Kamuvoni kuti chonse chinjila kumuntu kuzwa hanze kachiwoli kumusihisa,
“Are you still so dull?” He asked. “Do you not understand? Nothing that enters a man from the outside can defile him,
19 kakuti kachiwoli kwinjila munkulo, kono chiya mwivumo ni kukachizwisikiza mukalimba-limba?” Chowu muwambiro Jesu avapangi zilyo zonse chokujolola.
because it does not enter his heart, but it goes into the stomach and then is eliminated.” (Thus all foods are clean.)
20 Chati, “Nji chizwa hanse yomuntu njichimusilafaza. Kakuli chizwa kumuntu,
He continued: “What comes out of a man, that is what defiles him.
21 kuzwa mu nkulo, kuzwa mumihupulo mivi, vusaangu, vusa, kwihaya,
For from within the hearts of men come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery,
22 vushyahi, kunuungwa, lunya, muna, mapa, kuchengelela, vuikuhumuso, vuholo,
greed, wickedness, deceit, debauchery, envy, slander, arrogance, and foolishness.
23 zonse izi zivilala zizwilila mukati, mi nji zisihisa muuntu.”
All these evils come from within, and these are what defile a man.”
24 Chavuuka kuzwa aho ni kuyenda ku chikiliti chaTire ni Sidoni. Cheza munzubo mi kanavali kusaka kuti muntu zumwi ezive kuti kwa veena, kono kana avali kuwoleka ku patwa.
Jesus left that place and went to the region of Tyre. Not wanting anyone to know He was there, He entered a house, but was unable to escape their notice.
25 Kono hohwaho mukulwakazi, inyina wa mwana kazana yavena luhuho lusajololi, chazuwa kuamana naye, cheza, ni kuwila hansi hamatende akwe.
Instead, a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit soon heard about Jesus, and she came and fell at His feet.
26 Cwale mwanakazi avali Mugerike, waluzuvo lwa Zirofenia. Namukumbila kuhindika idimona ku mwana'kwe wa mukazana.
Now she was a Greek woman of Syrophoenician origin, and she kept asking Jesus to drive the demon out of her daughter.
27 Nati kwali, “Musiye bahwile pili baleliwe. Sina hakusashiyeme kuhinda zilyo zabahwile nikuzi sohela vambwa.”
“First let the children have their fill,” He said. “For it is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”
28 Kono cha mwitava nikuta kwali, “Eee, Simwine, nanga vambwa mwi konde lye ntafule valya tufwafwali twavahwile.”
“Yes, Lord,” she replied, “even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.”
29 Nati kwali, “Kakuli wawamba buti, ulukuluhite kuyenda. Idimona chilyaazwa kumwanako”.
Then Jesus told her, “Because of this answer, you may go. The demon has left your daughter.”
30 Chabola ku nzubo yakwe ni kukawana muhwile ulele hamumbeta, mi idimona livayendi.
And she went home and found her child lying on the bed, and the demon was gone.
31 Cwale chayenda hape kuzwa muchikiliti chaTire, nikuyenda cha Sidoni kuya kwiwate lyaGalileya konji kuchililiti cha Dekapolisi.
Then Jesus left the region of Tyre and went through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee and into the region of the Decapolis.
32 Ni chivaleta kwali zumwi yavafwile matwi ni bukavo kukuwamba, ni va mukumbila kubika iyanzahali.
Some people brought to Him a man who was deaf and hardly able to speak, and they begged Jesus to place His hand on him.
33 Chamuhindila kumbali kuzwa munavuungi cha kuliuungula, mi chavika minwe yakwe mumatwi akwe, mi hamana kuswa, nakwata lulimi lwakwe.
So Jesus took him aside privately, away from the crowd, and put His fingers into the man’s ears. Then He spit and touched the man’s tongue.
34 Avaloli kwiwulu, hatuliza muhuza nikucho kwali, “Efafata” njikuti, “Yaluke!”
And looking up to heaven, He sighed deeply and said to him, “Ephphatha!” (which means, “Be opened!”).
35 Mi haho kuzuwa kwakwe chikwe yaluka, mi chiva kwete lulimi lwakwe chiva shiywa mi chava kuwamba sinte.
Immediately the man’s ears were opened and his tongue was released, and he began to speak plainly.
36 Mi avava laeli kuti kanji vawambili muntu. Kono mwavali kuva laelelela, muvavali kuliwambila mane ni kuhita.
Jesus ordered them not to tell anyone. But the more He ordered them, the more widely they proclaimed it.
37 Vava komokiswa ahulu, ni vati, “Ava pangi zintu zonse siinte. Uwola nanga vasinkite matwi kuti vazuwe ni zimumu ku wamba.”
The people were utterly astonished and said, “He has done all things well! He makes even the deaf hear and the mute speak!”
