< Marka 2 >

1 Ie herone bey, nimpoly mb’e Kapernaomy mb’eo, le nijanjiñeñe t’ie añ’anjomba’e ao,
And again he entered into Capernaum, after [some] days, and it was heard that he is in the house,
2 aa akore ty firopaha’ i màroy kanao ninìtse tsy am-pitsifirañe ndra an-dalañe eo, ie nitaroñe i tsaray.
and immediately many were gathered together, so that there was no more room, not even at the door, and he was speaking to them the word.
3 Niheo mb’ama’e mb’eo ty efatse nitarazo t’y kepeke.
And they come unto him, bringing a paralytic, borne by four,
4 Aa ie tsy nahafitotoke ama’e fa nialindretse, le nahimpa’ iereo ty tafo ambone’ aze; pinoñapoña’ iereo, le nazè’ iereo ao ty tihy nandrea’ i kepekey.
and not being able to come near to him because of the multitude, they uncovered the roof where he was, and, having broken [it] up, they let down the couch on which the paralytic was lying,
5 Nioni’ Iesoà ty fatokisa’ iareo, le nanoe’e ty hoe i kepekey: O anake, fa hinaha o tahi’oo.
and Jesus having seen their faith, saith to the paralytic, 'Child, thy sins have been forgiven thee.'
6 Niambesatse eo ty mpanoki-dily ila’e nitsakore añ’arofo ty hoe:
And there were certain of the scribes there sitting, and reasoning in their hearts,
7 Akore ty reha’ ondatio? Ie mitera­tera! ia ty mahalio tahiñe naho tsy Raike avao, i Andrianañahare?
'Why doth this one thus speak evil words? who is able to forgive sins except one — God?'
8 Napota’ Iesoà añ’arofo’e amy zao ty fivetsevetse’ iareo, le hoe re am’ iereo: Akore te aereñere’ areo an-troke ao o raha zao?
And immediately Jesus, having known in his spirit that they thus reason in themselves, said to them, 'Why these things reason ye in your hearts?
9 Ty aia ty mora volañeñe amy kepekey: ke ty hoe: Hinaha o hakeo’oo, he ty hoe: Mitroara, rambeso o tihi’oo le mañaveloa?
which is easier, to say to the paralytic, The sins have been forgiven to thee? or to say, Rise, and take up thy couch, and walk?
10 Aa soa te ho fohi’ areo te aman-dily an-tane atoy i Ana’ ondatiy hañalio tahiñe, —Le hoe re amy kepekey:
'And, that ye may know that the Son of Man hath authority on the earth to forgive sins — (he saith to the paralytic) —
11 O toke: Mitroara, rambeso o tihi’oo le akia mb’añ’akiba’o añe.
I say to thee, Rise, and take up thy couch, and go away to thy house;'
12 Niongake amy zao re, nandrambe i tihi’ey, vaho nienga añatrefa’ iereo iaby; le hene nilatsa naho nandrenge an’ Andrianañahare ami’ty hoe: Mbe lia’ay tsy nahatrea ty manahake itoa-hoe.
and he rose immediately, and having taken up the couch, he went forth before all, so that all were astonished, and do glorify God, saying — 'Never thus did we see.'
13 Nienga mb’añ’olon-driake mb’eo indraike re; le hene niropak’ ama’e i valobohokey, vaho nanare’e.
And he went forth again by the sea, and all the multitude was coming unto him, and he was teaching them,
14 Aa ie nimb’eo, nivazoho’e t’i Levy, ana’ i Alfeo, niambesatse am-panontonan-kaba ao, le hoe re ama’e: Oriho iraho. Le niongake re nañorike aze.
and passing by, he saw Levi of Alpheus sitting at the tax-office, and saith to him, 'Be following me,' and he, having risen, did follow him.
15 Ie nidegañe añ’anjomba’e ao, le nimaro ty mpanontoñe vili-loha naho bei-hakeo nitrao-pikama amy Iesoà naho amo mpiama’eo, amy te maro am’ irezay ty nañorike aze.
And it came to pass, in his reclining (at meat) in his house, that many tax-gatherers and sinners were reclining (at meat) with Jesus and his disciples, for there were many, and they followed him.
16 Aa naho nioni’ o mpanoki-dilio naho o Fariseoo t’ie nitrao-pikama amo mpanan-tahiñeo naho amo mpamory vili-lohao, le nanao ty hoe amo mpiama’eo: Inoñe ty iharoa’e fikama naho finoñe amo mpamory vili-lohao naho amo bey hakeoo?
And the scribes and the Pharisees, having seen him eating with the tax-gatherers and sinners, said to his disciples, 'Why — that with the tax-gatherers and sinners he doth eat and drink?'
17 Naho jinanji’ Iesoà izay, le hoe re am’iereo: Tsy o jangañeo ro mipay mpanaha fa o marareo. Tsy pok’eo iraho hikanjy ty vañoñe hisoloho, fa o aman-kakeoo.
And Jesus, having heard, saith to them, 'They who are strong have no need of a physician, but they who are ill; I came not to call righteous men, but sinners to reformation.'
18 Mpililitse o mpiana’ i Jaonao naho o Fariseoo, le nimb’eo iereo nanao ty hoe ama’e: Aa vaho akore te mililitse o mpiana’ i Jaonao naho o mpiamo Fariseoo, fe tsy mililitse o mpiama’oo?
And the disciples of John and those of the Pharisees were fasting, and they come and say to him, 'Wherefore do the disciples of John and those of the Pharisees fast, and thy disciples do not fast?'
19 Le hoe t’Iesoà tam’iereo: Mete mililitse hao o rañem-pañengao ie mbe am’ iereo i mpañengay? Kanao am’ iereo i mpañengay, tsy mililitse iereo.
And Jesus said to them, 'Are the sons of the bride-chamber able, while the bridegroom is with them, to fast? so long time as they have the bridegroom with them they are not able to fast;
20 Toe ho tondroke ty andro hanintahañe i mpañengay am’iereo; hililitse amy andro zay iereo.
but days shall come when the bridegroom may be taken from them, and then they shall fast — in those days.
21 Tsy eo ty manakeke lamba tsy nahanañe ami’ty saron-kambo’e tsy mone hisitake amy saroñey i takekey, vaho hiindra i nikodreatsey.
'And no one a patch of undressed cloth doth sew on an old garment, and if not — the new filling it up doth take from the old and the rent doth become worse;
22 Le tsy añiliñan-divay vao ty zonjòn-kolitse hambo’e, tsy mone hampitòsitse ty divay amy holitse hambo’ey, vaho hianto i zonjòñey. Fa ailiñe an-jonjòñe vao ao ty divay vao.
and no one doth put new wine into old skins, and if not — the new wine doth burst the skins, and the wine is poured out, and the skins will be destroyed; but new wine into new skins is to be put.'
23 Teo te indraike, niranga teteke re ami’ty Sabotse naho nanifo ampemba amy lia’ iareoy o mpiama’eo.
And it came to pass — he is going along on the sabbaths through the corn-fields — and his disciples began to make a way, plucking the ears,
24 Le hoe o Fariseoo tama’e: Henhe: akore t’ie manao raha faly ami’ty Sabata?
and the Pharisees said to him, 'Lo, why do they on the sabbaths that which is not lawful?'
25 Aa hoe ty natoi’e: Mbe tsy vinaki’ areo hao ty nanoe’ i Davide, ie nidobo naho nisaliko, ie naho o mpiama’eo:
And he said to them, 'Did ye never read what David did, when he had need and was hungry, he and those with him?
26 nimoak’ añ’ Anjomban’ Añahare ao faha’ i Abiatara Mpisorom-bey le nikama ty mofo miatreke—ze faly tsy kamaeñe naho tsy o mpisoroñeo avao, vaho nandiva amo mpiama’eo?
how he went into the house of God, (at 'Abiathar the chief priest,') and the loaves of the presentation did eat, which it is not lawful to eat, except to the priests, and he gave also to those who were with him?'
27 Hoe re tam’ iereo: Ondatio ty nanoañe i Sabatay, fa tsy i Sabatay ondatio;
And he said to them, 'The sabbath for man was made, not man for the sabbath,
28 Aa le Talè’ o Sabatao ka i Ana’ ondatiy.
so that the son of man is lord also of the sabbath.'
