< Lioka 8 >

1 Ie añe, le nitsitsihe’ Iesoà ze tanañe naho rova, nitaro­ñe naho ninday ty talili-soa’ i Fife­hean’ Añaharey. Nindre ama’e i folo ro’ amby rey
Now it happened after this that He started going around town by town, village by village, preaching and proclaiming the good news of the Kingdom of God, and the twelve were with Him;
2 naho o rakemba ila’e nafahañe kokolampa naho hasilofañeo—toe i Marie atao Mag­dalenae, i nitsamoahan-kokolampa fitoy,
also certain women who had been healed of malignant spirits and infirmities: Mary (the one called Magdalene) from whom seven demons had gone out;
3 naho i Johanae vali’ i Kozae, mpamandro’ i Heroda, naho i Sosanae vaho ty maro ila’e mpiatrak’ aze am-panaña’ iareo.
and Joanna the wife of Chuza, an official of Herod; and Susanna, and many others—these were providing for Him from their substance.
4 Ie nifanontoñe i lahialeñey naho nikovovòke mb’ama’e o boak’ amo rovao, le hoe ty nandrazaña’e:
Now when a large crowd had gathered, with people coming to Him from town after town, He spoke by a parable:
5 Niavotse handrarake tabiry ty mpambole, nafitse’e i doriay, le nipok’ añ’olon-dalañe eo ty ila’e fe nandialiañe vaho nitsimok’ aze o voron-dikerañeo.
“A sower went out to sow his seed; and as he sowed some fell along the road, and it got trampled, and the birds of the air devoured it.
6 Ty ila’e nipok’ an-damilamy eo, ie vaho nitiry le niheatse amy te tsy ni-lèñe.
And some fell on the rock ledge, and upon sprouting it withered, because it had no moisture.
7 Nipok’ am-po fatik’ ao ka ty ila’e naho nitrao-fitiry amo fatikeo fe nida­geañe.
And some fell among thorns, and springing up together the thorns choked it.
8 Nipok’ an-tane hoba ka ty ila’e, le nitiry vaho namoa in-jato. Ie tsinara’e izay, le nipoñafa’e ty hoe: Ze aman-dravembia hijanjiñe, Mijanjiña!
The rest fell into the good ground, and growing up it produced fruit a hundredfold.” Upon saying these things He called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”
9 Aa le nañontanea’ o mpiama’eo: Akore i ohatse zay.
Then His disciples asked Him saying, “What does this parable mean?”
10 Hoe re: Toe natolotse anahareo ty haharendreke o raha mietak’ amy Fifehean’ Añahareio; f’ie razañeñe amo ila’eo, soa te ndra miisake iereo tsy hahavazoho, ndra mijanjiñe, tsy hahafohiñe.
So He said: “To you it has been given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of God, but to the rest only in parables, so that ‘seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.’
11 Inao koahe ty ampibejañañe i oha­tsey: Tsaran’Añahare i tabiriy.
“Now here is the parable: The seed is the Word of God.
12 O añ’ olon-dalañeo, o nahajanjiñeo; fe mivotrake eo i mpañìnjey manintake i tsaray añ’arofo’ iareo tsy mone hiantoke vaho ho rombaheñe.
Those along the road are those who hear; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, in order that they not be saved, having believed.
13 O an-damilamio, le o mahajanjiñe naho mandrambe i tsaray an-kafaleañeo, f’ie tsy amam-bahatse, miantok’ aniany avao vaho misitak’ an-tsam-panjiziañe.
Those on the rock ledge are the ones who, whenever they hear, receive the word with joy; yet these have no root, who believe for a while and in time of testing fall away.
14 O tabiry nipok’ amo fatikeoo, ro mahajanjiñe, fa ie mionjon-dre ro dageañe’ o halonjerañeo naho o varao naho o hafalean-kaveloñe atoio vaho tsy mahavañom-boa.
Now that which fell into the thorns: these are the ones who heard, yet as they go they are choked by cares, riches, and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to maturity.
15 O an-tane soao ka, ro añ’ arofo vaño naho vantañeie mijanjiñe o tsarao le tambozore’e vaho mahavañom-boa am-pahaliñisañe.
But that on the good ground: these are the ones who having heard the word with a noble and good heart, hold on to it and produce fruit with perseverance.”
16 Tsy eo ty mamelon-jiro vaho mampikapek’ aze am-panake ndra mampizilik’ aze ambane fandreañe ao; fe apo’e ambone’ ty fasian-jiro ey ho isa’ ze mimoak’ ao i hazavàñey.
Upon saying these things He called out: “He who has ears to hear, let him hear! No one, when he has lit a lamp, covers it with a vessel or puts it under a bed, but he sets it on a lamp stand, so that those who come in may see the light.
17 Toe tsy ao ty mihaja ze tsy haakatse, naho ty mikopoke ze tsy ho rendreke vaho haboake.
Further, there is nothing hidden that will not be revealed, nor anything concealed that will not be made known and come into the open.
18 Ambeno arè ty fijanjiña’areo, fa ze manañe ho tolorañe fe rambeseñe amo tsy manañeo o ihaboha’eo.
So be careful how you hear: Because whoever has, to him more will be given; and whoever does not have, even what he thinks he has will be taken away from him.”
19 Le niheo mb’ama’e ty rene’e naho o rahalahi’eo, fe tsy nahafitotok’ aze amy te nialin-drètse.
Then His mother and brothers came to Him, and they could not get near Him because of the crowd.
20 Le hoe ty nanohinañ’ aze: Mijohañe alafe’e ao i rene’o naho o roa­halahi’oo mipay hahaoniñe Azo.
And it was told Him by some saying, “Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.”
21 Tinoi’e ty hoe: Heheke ty reneko naho o rahalahikoo, o mijanjiñe ty tsaran’ Añahare vaho mañorik’ azeo.
But in answer He said to them, “My mother and my brothers are these, the ones who hear the word of God and do it!”
22 Teo ty andro t’ie nijon-dakañe mindre amo mpiama’eo le nanoa’e ty hoe: Antao hitsake mb’andafe’ o riakeo eñe, le nimb’eo iereo.
Now it happened on one of those days that He got into a boat with His disciples; and He said to them, “Let us go over to the other side of the lake.” So they launched out.
23 Ie niondrañe mb’eo le ginaon-drotse, naho nizotso amy oñey ty tio-baratse ho nandipotse iereo vaho didý tsy nivarata.
But as they sailed He fell asleep. A windstorm descended on the lake, and they were being swamped and were in jeopardy.
24 Niheo mb’ ama’e iereo nampi­tsekak’ aze ami’ty hoe: O Talè, Talè, mate zahay! Nitroatse re nitrevoke i tiokey naho ty fitabohaza’ i riakey, le nijihetse vaho nipendreñe.
So they came and awakened Him, saying, “Master, Master, we are perishing!” Then He got up and rebuked the wind and the waves of water—and they stopped, and there was a calm!
25 Le hoe re tam’ iereo: Aia ty fatokisa’ areo? Nianifañe iereo naho nañeveñe, le nifanao ty hoe: Ia itoio, kanao aman-dily hampivohore’e o tiokeo naho o ranoo!
So He said to them, “Where is your faith?” But being terrified they marveled, saying to each other: “Who can this be? Because He commands even the winds and the water, and they obey Him!”
26 Nitoly an-tane Gerasenay tandrife’ i Galilia eñe iereo.
Then they sailed to the district of the Gadarenes, which is opposite Galilee.
27 Ie nizotso an-tamboho eo, le nisalakae’ t’indaty hirik’ an-drova ao niazo’ ty koko­lampa, tsy nisafotse hatrela’e, mbore tsy nitobok’ an-traño fa an-donak’ ey avao.
Well when He stepped out on the land, a certain man of that town met Him, who had had demons for a long time—he wore no clothes, nor did he live in a house, but among the tombs.
28 Ie nahaisake Iesoà, le nikoaikoaike naho nibabok’ aolo’e eo nitazataza ty hoe: Ino ty itraofako ama’o r’Iesoà Anan’ Añahare Andindimoneñe? Mihalaly ama’o: ko ampisoañe’o.
When he saw Jesus he gave a yell, fell down before Him, and with a loud voice he said: “What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you, don't torment me!”
29 Foto’e, linili’ Iesoà o kokolampao ty hiakatse am’indatiy; fa beteke nifihiñe’e—ie ni­tambozoreñe naho nirohizen-tsilisily naho labaro fe rinafadrafa’e o vahotseo, vaho nasiotsio’ o koko­lampao mb’am-babangoañ’ añe.
because He had commanded the unclean spirit to get out of the man (it had seized him many times—he would be bound with chains and shackles, being kept under guard; then bursting the bonds he would be driven by the demon into deserted places).
30 Le hoe ty nañontanea’ Iesoà: Ia ty añara’o? Tozantoza; hoe re, amy te nitsamoahan’ angatse maro.
Then Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” And he said, “Legion” (because many demons had gone into him).
31 Nihalalia’ iareo te tsy ho lilie’e hijoroboñe an-tsikeokeok’ ao. (Abyssos g12)
And he kept imploring Him that He would not order them to go away into the Abyss. (Abyssos g12)
32 Nan­drazeñe ambone vohitse ey ty lambo maro troke raike. Aa le hinalali’ iereo te hado’e himoak’ am’ iareo ao. Le napo’e.
Now a herd of many pigs was feeding there on the hillside; and they started begging Him that He would allow them to go into those; so He gave them permission.
33 Aa le nifaok’ amy lahilahiy o kokolampao naho nitsa­moak’ amo lamboo. Le nivongaritse mb’amy herere­tsakey naho nijoro­boñe an-drano ao i troke raikey vaho niopo.
Then the demons exited the man and entered the pigs—and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and was drowned!
34 Ie nitrea’ o mpiarakeo le nibijo’ ty lay mb’ an-drova mb’eo naho mb’ an-kalok’ añe, nitalily.
Well when the herders saw what had happened they ran away and reported it in the town and in the countryside.
35 Aa le nangovovòke mb’eo o hioniñe i nanoeñeio, nivotrak’ amy Iesoà eo, naho nitendreke indaty niakara’ o kokolampaoy, ie niambesatse am-pandia’ Iesoà eo nisafonoke naho vory hilala, nampañeveñe iereo.
So they went out to see what had happened, and came to Jesus; they found the man from whom the demons had gone out sitting at Jesus' feet, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.
36 Natalili’ o naharen­drekeo ty namotsorañe i niazon-kokolampay.
Also, the eyewitnesses reported to them how the demonized man was healed.
37 Aa le nihalalie’ o valobohòke an-tane’ Gerasena iabio t’Iesoà ty hisitake, amy t’ie niazo’ ty anifañe. Aa le nijon-dakan-dRe, nimpoly.
Then the whole multitude from the surrounding region of the Gadarenes asked Him to depart from them, because they were overcome by fear. So He got into the boat and returned.
38 Nihalaly te ho mpiama’e indaty niakara’ o kokolampaoy, fe hoe ty nañitrifa’ Iesoà aze:
Now the man from whom the demons had gone out had started begging Him that he might be with Him. But Jesus sent him away, saying,
39 Mimpolia mb’ añ’ akiba’o mb’eo vaho atalilio o raha ra’elahy nanoen’ Añahareo. Niavotse re nanitsike i rovay nitalily i raha fanjàka nanoa’ Iesoà rezay.
“Return to your house and recount how much God has done for you.” So he went his way and proclaimed all over town how much Jesus had done for him.
40 Ie toly eñe t’Iesoà, le rinambe’ i lahialeñey soa, fa songa nandiñe aze.
Now it happened, when Jesus returned, that the crowd welcomed Him, because they were all waiting for Him.
41 Niheo mb’eo amy zao ty androa­navy atao Jairo, beim-pitontonañe, nihotrak’ am-pandia’ Iesoà eo nihalaly aze hi­hova mb’añ’ an­jom­ba’e ao
And then, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue; he fell down at Jesus' feet and started begging Him to come to his house,
42 fa heta’e i anak’ ampela toka’e miha folo taoñe ro’ amby zay. Aa ie nionjom-b’eo, nitamboemboeñe ama’e i lahialeñey;
because he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying. Now as He was going, the crowds were pressing against Him.
43 teo ty rakemba niazo’ ty retsilà folo taoñe ro’amby, le fonga naleta’e amo mpanahao ze fiveloma’e, fe tsy teo ty nahafake.
And a woman—suffering with a flow of blood for twelve years, who had spent her whole livelihood on physicians, but could not be healed by any—
44 Nimb’ amboho’e ao re nitsapa ty lifin-damba’e, vaho nitsintañe amy zao i lio-lava’ey.
approaching from behind touched the border of His garment; and immediately the flow of her blood stopped!
45 Le hoe t’Iesoà: Ia ty ni­tsapa ahy? Songa nandietse vaho hoe t’i Petera naho o mpiama’eo: O Rañandria, miharombontake naho mañifitse azo i lahialeñey.
So Jesus said, “Who touched me?” When all denied it, Peter and those with him said: “Master, the people are pressing against you and crowding in, and you say, ‘Who touched me?’”
46 Le hoe t’Iesoà: Ao ty nipaok’ ahy; apotako te niakaran-kaozarañe.
But Jesus said, “Someone did touch me, because I noticed power going out from me.”
47 Aa ie nirendre’ i rakembay te tsy lefe ty fietaha’e, le nivorombeloñe, fe niheova’e nihohok’ am-pandia’eo nitalily añatrefa’ ze hene’ ondaty ty foto’ i nitsapa’e azey naho t’ie nijangañe ami’ty manao zao.
Now when the woman saw that she could not hide, she came trembling, and falling down before Him she told Him in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched Him, and how she was healed immediately.
48 Aa hoe t’Iesoà tama’e: O anake, o fatokisa’oo ro nahajangañ’ azo; akia, manintsiña.
So He said: “Courage, daughter, your faith has healed you. Go into peace.”
49 Ie mbe nisaontsy t’Iesoà le pok’eo ty hirik’ amy beim-pitontonañey añe nanao ama’e ty hoe: Fa simba i anak’ ampela’oy; ko olañe’o ka t’i Talè.
While He was still speaking, here came someone from the synagogue ruler's house, saying to him: “Your daughter has died. Don't bother the teacher.”
50 Ie jinanji’ Iesoà, le hoe ty natoi’e: Ko hembañe, mato­kisa avao, le ho jangañen-dre.
But upon hearing it Jesus reacted by saying to him, “Don't be afraid; just believe and she will be healed.”
51 Ie tsatok’ añ’ anjomba’e ao, tsy napo’e hizilik’ ao naho tsy i Petera naho i Jaona naho Iakobe vaho ty rae naho i rene’ i ajajampelay.
When He arrived at the house, He allowed no one to go in except Peter, John, James, the father of the child, and her mother.
52 Hene nirovetse naho nandala aze ondatio, fa hoe re tama’e: Ko mirovetse, tsy simba re fa miroro.
Now all were weeping and mourning for her; but He said, “Do not weep; she is not dead, but sleeping.”
53 Aa le nonjira’ iareo an-kehe kanao nioniñe t’ie simba.
They started ridiculing Him, knowing that she had died.
54 Fonga nakare’e, le rinambe’e ty taña’ i ajajampelay vaho nikanjia’e ami’ty hoe: O ajajampelao, Mitroara.
So He put them all outside, and grasping her hand He called, saying, “Child, arise!”
55 Nibalike ty fiai’e le nitroatse amy zao, vaho nampamahana’e.
Then her spirit returned, and she got right up! And He directed that she be given something to eat.
56 Nilatsa o roae’eo, fe nafantopanto’e tsy hitalily ndra ama’ iaia i nanoeñey.
Her parents were astonished, but He charged them to tell no one what had happened.
