Matio 4
1 Le nendese’ i Arofo Masiñey mb’ am-babangoañ’ ao t’i Iesoà ho zizie’ i mpañìnjey.
At that time Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the Desert in order to be tempted by the Devil.
2 Nililitse efapolo andro naho efapolo halen-dre vaho nisaliko,
There He fasted for forty days and nights; and after that He suffered from hunger.
3 nitotok’ ama’e i mpañìnjey nanao ty hoe: Kanao Anan’ Añahare, irehe, misaontsia amo vato retoañe hiova ho mahakama.
So the Tempter came and said, "If you are the Son of God, command these stones to turn into loaves."
4 Fa hoe ty natoi’ Iesoà aze: Pinatetse ty hoe: Tsy mahakama avao ty mahaveloñe’ ondaty fa ze hene tsara miakatse am-palie’ Iehovà.
"It is written," replied Jesus, "'It is not on bread alone that a man shall live, but on whatsoever God shall appoint.'"
5 Le nindese’ i mpañìnjey mb’amy rova navaheñey mb’eo naho nampijohañe’e an-digiligi’ i anjomba miavakey
Then the Devil took Him to the Holy City and caused Him to stand on the roof of the Temple,
6 vaho nanoa’e ty hoe: Naho Andrianañahare irehe, mitsambotraha ambane ey, amy te pinatetse ty hoe: Fa linili’e ty ama’o o anjeli’eo ty hitare Azo amo lia’o iabio, naho o fità’iareoo ro hañongake Azo, tsy mone hidasits’ am-bato ty fandia’o
and said, "If you are God's Son, throw yourself down; for it is written, "'To His angels He will give orders concerning thee, and on their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any moment thou shouldst strike thy foot against a stone.'"
7 Hoe t’i Iesoà tama’e: Ko tsohe’o t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’o.
"Again it is written," replied Jesus, "'Thou shalt not put the Lord thy God to the proof.'"
8 Aa le nendese’ i mpañìnjey mb’ an-dindim-bohitse añe vaho natoro’e aze ze kila fifehea’ ty voatse toy naho ty enge’ iareo.
Then the Devil took Him to the top of an exceedingly lofty mountain, from which he caused Him to see all the Kingdoms of the world and their splendour,
9 Le nanoa’e ty hoe: Hene hatoloko Azo o retoañe naho ibaboha’o an-daharañe.
and said to Him, "All this I will give you, if you will kneel down and do me homage."
10 Fe hoe t’Iesoà tama’e: Soike ty mpañìnje! fa pinatetse ty hoe: Hitalaho am’Iehovà Andrianañahare’o irehe, vaho Ie avao ty hitoroña’o.
"Begone, Satan!" Jesus replied; "for it is written, 'To the Lord thy God thou shalt do homage, and to Him alone shalt thou render worship.'"
11 Le nisitake aze i mpañìnjey, vaho niharineañ’ anjely, niatrak’ aze.
Thereupon the Devil left Him, and angels at once came and ministered to Him.
12 Ie jinanji’ Iesoà, te nasese mb’am-balabey ao t’i Jaona, le nimb’e Gilgale mb’eo.
Now when Jesus heard that John was thrown into prison, He withdrew into Galilee,
13 Niarie’e ty Natseràle le nimoneñe e Kapernaome-raità am-pariparin-tane’ i Zebolona añe,
and leaving Nazareth He went and settled at Capernaum, a town by the Lake on the frontiers of Zebulun and Naphtali,
14 hañeneke ty nisaontsie’ Isaia mpitoky ami’ty hoe:
in order that these words, spoken through the Prophet Isaiah, might be fulfilled,
15 An-tane Zebolona naho an-tane Naftaly, ty lala’ i riakey, alafe’ Iordaney— Galilia’ o kilakila’ ondatio:
"Zebulun's land and Naphtali's land; the road by the Lake; the country beyond the Jordan; Galilee of the Nations!
16 Fa nahaisa-kazavañe ra’elahy ondaty mañavelo añ`ieñeo, le fa nireandreañan-kazavañe o mitoboke an-tanen-kamoromoroñañeo.
The people who were dwelling in darkness have seen a brilliant light; and on those who were dwelling in the region of the shadow of death, on them light has dawned."
17 Ie henane zay, namototse nitaroñe t’Iesoà, nanao ty hoe: Misolohoa, fa mitotoke i fifehean-dikerañey.
From that time Jesus began to preach. "Repent," He said, "for the Kingdom of the Heavens is now close at hand."
18 Nidraidraitse añ’ olo-driake Galilia eo t’i Iesoà, le nahavazoho mpirahalahy roe, i Simona atao Petrose, naho i Andrea rahalahi’e, nañifike o harato’ iareoo an-driake ao, amy t’ie mpiandriake.
And walking along the shore of the Lake of Galilee He saw two brothers--Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew--throwing a drag-net into the Lake; for they were fishers.
19 Le nanoa’ ty hoe: Oriho iraho, vaho hanoeko mpañarato ondaty.
And He said to them, "Come and follow me, and I will make you fishers of men."
20 Aa le nado’ iereo amy oray o harato’ iareoo vaho nañorike aze.
So they immediately left their nets and followed Him. As He went further on,
21 Ie nienga mb’eo, le nahavazoho mpirahalahy roe ka: Iakobe ana’ i Zebedeele naho i Jaona rahalahi’e, mindre amy Zebedeele rae’ iareo, nañajary ty harato’ iareo an-dakañe ao, vaho nikoihe’e.
He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zabdi and his brother John, in the boat with their father Zabdi mending their nets; and He called them.
22 Nihepakepake iereo nienga i haratoy naho ty rae’iareo, nañorik’ aze.
And they at once left the boat and their father, and followed Him.
23 Le nimb’eo mb’eo an-tane Galilia t’i Iesoà, nañoke am-pivoria’ iareo ao, naho nitaroñe ty tolotse soa i fifehean-dikerañey naho nañafake ze fonga areteñe vaho ze hene hasilofañe am’ ondatio.
Then Jesus travelled through all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the Good News of the Kingdom, and curing every kind of disease and infirmity among the people.
24 Niboele nahatsitsike ty tane’ i Sirià ty nitalilieñe aze; le nasese mb’ama’e ze hene nitindrien-karazan’ areteñe maro: o angaran-kokolampao, o volevolen’ angatseo naho ze azo ty tsipelatse, vaho jinanga’e.
Thus His fame spread through all Syria; and they brought all the sick to Him, the people who were suffering from various diseases and pains--demoniacs, epileptics, paralytics; and He cured them.
25 Valobohoke bey ty nañorike aze boake Dekapoly naho i Galilia naho Ierosaleme naho Iehodà vaho alafe’ Iordaney añe.
And great crowds followed Him, coming from Galilee, from the Ten Towns, from Jerusalem, and from beyond the district on the other side of the Jordan.
