Mbɨ enta emŋgemŋga nchonjɨrɨv sɨmŋganj haŋam nchɨ tor sɨhomɨŋai yamb nand akŋ usuzɨnd enta han mpehɨromŋganj. Mach ave, wɨram kɨra ya Mosesɨnd injambɨr ahe sɨkahɨnd hamb, wɨram untɨm Farisind hamen awakŋi aiampɨra ohɨra Jerusalem erere Jisasɨnd pɨŋ aimŋgɨmar. Mbɨ ai wamŋgɨz Jisasɨnd sezɨr hamb mbɨndɨŋ omanampɨra ŋoz usi mɨnamŋgɨm, kɨrɨm mbɨ Yakŋ Ohɨrand ampɨn insɨŋ enta kɨvahɨnsɨnd ñi namŋgɨmar.
The Pharisees and religious leaders who had come down from Jerusalem to meet Jesus
noticed that some of his disciples ate with “unclean” (meaning unwashed) hands.
(The Pharisees and all Jews don't eat until they wash their hands, following the tradition of their ancestors.
In the same way, they don't eat when they return from the market until they have had a wash. They observe many other rituals, like the washing of cups, pots, and pans.)
5 Avɨz mbɨ Jisasɨh amarɨmŋgɨmar. Utɨndɨv amakɨr sezarɨv nchonjɨrɨnd enta han mpehɨromah ramŋgi arɨmŋgɨmar. Mbɨ mbɨndɨŋ omanampɨra ŋoz usi mɨnamŋgɨm ave mbɨ Yakŋ Ohɨrand ampɨn insɨŋ enta kɨvahɨnsɨnd ñi namŋgɨj arɨmŋgɨmar.
So the Pharisees and religious leaders asked Jesus, “Why don't your disciples follow the tradition of our ancestors? They eat food with unclean hands.”
6 Az Jisasɨv ndɨŋ kamar. Andɨŋ wɨram kɨra yosand amar. Amɨ ya imbɨr akŋ kamŋgɨrɨnaŋg, kɨrɨm amɨ ya kehan mɨmpehɨromŋgɨrɨm amar. Aisaiah, wɨram Yakŋ Ohɨrand ya injambɨr ahe kahɨnd hamb, mbɨ andɨŋndɨv mɨŋun kamar amar. Yakŋ Ohɨrav Aisaiah kaz ya mbɨkɨr han njɨhame hanave mpamar. Osa anchɨ kehamb ihɨnd ensa han mbɨndɨŋ karupɨrɨŋon mamah ŋambiahamŋgɨj arar mpamar amar. Kɨrɨm mbɨ mbɨndɨŋ mpɨ han yandɨv meŋgwamŋgɨrɨm arar mpamar amar.
Jesus replied, “Isaiah was right about you hypocrites when he said, ‘These people claim they honor me, but in their thinking they are far from me.
7 Mbɨ wɨramɨnd entaŋam sɨkamŋgɨj arar mpamar amar. Ave mban Yakŋ Ohɨrand enta arar kamŋgɨj arar mpamar amar. Ave mbɨ handɨv ihɨnd ensa han mamah oreŋgeŋg yan ŋambiahamŋgɨj arar mpamar amar.
There's no point in their worship of me, for what they teach as doctrines are merely human rules.’
8 Amɨ Yakŋ Ohɨrand enta han erere wɨramɨnd entaŋam aŋkarɨpɨr mpehɨromŋgɨrɨn amar.
You disregard God's law, and instead you carefully observe human traditions.”
9 Mach, Jisasɨv mbahon kamar. Amandɨŋ entaŋam mpehɨroŋɨn are, amɨ handɨv Yakŋ Ohɨrand enta han ontamŋgɨrɨn amar.
“How cleverly you set aside God's law so you can support your traditions!” he told them.
10 Mach, Mosesɨv kamar amar. Amɨ yaŋar onarɨnd kwɨŋ ñi mbɨndɨŋ njɨhiŋam ŋamb arar kamar amar. Mach, Mosesɨv mbahon kamar amar. Wɨramb mɨŋɨr wanɨrɨh ya kɨvah kandari hamb, mbɨ maz arar kamar amar.
“Moses said, ‘Honor your father and mother,’ and ‘Whoever curses their father or mother should die.’
11 Kɨrɨm nend amar. Amɨ Yakŋ Ohɨrand ya han njɨhamɨmah re mbanave kamŋgɨrɨn amar. Wɨramb mɨŋɨr wanɨrɨh kaŋɨnj, nzɨ hanɨhan ihɨnd han ŋe andɨŋ imbɨr hɨrawɨmɨñaŋg, kɨrɨm nend arar kaŋɨnj arar kamŋgɨrɨn amar. Nzɨ hanɨhan ihɨnd han ŋe Yakŋ Ohɨra ndɨh eŋgwin arar kaŋɨnj arar kamŋgɨrɨn amar.
But you say that if someone tells their father or mother, ‘Anything you might have received from me is now Corban,’ (that means dedicated to God),
12 Wɨram mbanamb hanavɨz amɨ ndɨn kamŋgɨrɨn amar. Amɨ hanɨhan amakɨr han ŋe yaŋar onar hɨrawɨmɨn arar kamŋgɨrɨn amar.
then you don't permit them to do anything further for their mother or father.
13 Mach, enta amɨ sɨmŋgɨrɨn hamb raz, amɨ Yakŋ Ohɨrand ya han ŋambiŋgwɨmŋgɨz, Yakŋ Ohɨrand ya hamb aŋkarɨpɨr mah amar. Amɨ enta akŋ pɨr akŋ han si wɨram emŋgemŋga han hanavav sɨkamŋgɨrɨn amar.
By means of this tradition of yours that you pass down, you make God's word null and void. You do many other things like this.”
14 Mach, Jisasɨv ekwaŋg wɨram akŋ anchɨ akŋ han oreŋgɨz aimŋgɨmar. Aimŋgɨz kamar. Amɨ mɨŋam ihɨnd ya njɨhame omanenta wavar amar.
Jesus called the crowd to him again and told them, “Please, everyone listen to me and understand.
15 Hanɨhan han wɨramb ŋe namŋgɨj han, wɨramb han ŋe ne wɨram kɨvah mahevakarɨndɨram amar. Njɨhi kɨvah kɨvah wɨramb njɨhamŋgɨj han, wɨramb njɨhi kehan njɨhame si wɨram kɨvah ahevakarɨndari amar.
It's not what's on the outside and goes into you that makes you unclean. It's what comes out that makes you unclean.”
17 Mach, Jisasɨv wɨram akŋ anchɨ akŋ han erere oramɨŋ we ahevohe ñɨzand sezɨrɨv ndɨn ya ahɨmbɨnd ondo handɨv amarɨmŋgɨmar.
Then Jesus went inside to escape the crowd, and his disciples asked him about his illustration.
18 Az ndɨŋɨh kamar. Andɨŋez njɨhi mah oh a amar. Amɨ mɨwamŋgɨrɨm toh amar. Mɨrunsa injambɨrɨŋ ñɨz wɨramb ŋe namŋgɨj han, wɨramb han ŋe ne wɨram kɨvah mahevakarɨndɨram amar. Mɨrunsa kehamb mpɨ unchaŋ we akand empaŋam we akoramɨŋ oj amar. Ave unsa nanɨnd kehamb wɨram kɨvah mɨsɨrɨm amar. (Jisasɨnd ya ondo han mbanɨmb: Yakŋ Ohɨrav waz mɨrunsa endɨraparam nanɨnd han mbɨkɨr ampɨn insɨ han imbɨrvamun ñɨj.)
“Don't you understand it either?” he asked them. “Don't you see that what you eat doesn't make you unclean?
It doesn't go into your mind, but into your stomach, and then passes out of the body. So all foods are ceremonially ‘clean.’
20 Ave Jisasɨv mbahon kamar. Njɨhi kɨvah kɨvah wɨramb njɨhamŋgɨj han, wɨramb njɨhi kehan njɨhame si wɨram kɨvah ahevakarɨndari amar.
It's what comes out of you that makes you unclean.
21 Njɨhi kɨvah kɨvah, osamen anchɨmen ndand, akɨm ŋaŋ, wɨram mamta oror, ntichij, enta kɨvah kɨvah, wɨram yosa kahɨnd, yahɨrɨz asambar ndand, ambarawɨrɨwɨr, ya mapɨŋ kah, Yakŋ Ohɨra yarahe kah, nzonam arar kah, wɨram njɨhi mah Yakŋ Ohɨrandɨv mɨnjɨhamɨrɨm, han enta kɨvah kɨvah wɨramb njɨhamŋgɨj kehamb wɨram kɨvah sɨj amar.
It's from the inside, from people's minds, that evil thoughts come: sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery,
greed, malice, deceit, indecency, envy, slander, pride, thoughtlessness—
all these evils come from inside and defile people.”
24 Mach, Jisasɨv ŋaiahe isupɨr mban erere isupɨr aiampɨra Tairɨnd handɨh omar. We oram ahevohe ñi ndɨŋ erokare kamar. Wɨram emŋgavaŋg kamŋgɨmɨn amar. Jisasɨv mbah ñɨñmbɨri arar kamŋgɨmɨn amar. Kɨrɨm nend. Osa anchɨ hamb Jisasɨv oramɨŋ ñɨmar han, han wamŋgɨmar.
Then Jesus left and went to the region of Tyre. He didn't want anyone to know he was staying in a house there, but he couldn't keep it a secret.
25 Mach, anchɨ emŋga nanch mbɨkɨr han itɨ kɨvahɨnsɨnd hamb Jisasɨv ñɨmar han njɨhamɨmar. Anchɨ kehan untɨm Judand mah. Ndɨn untɨm Fonisiand isupɨr Siriand. Az mach, pams haŋon mbɨ Jisasɨnd pɨŋ ai andamesa mpɨrorɨzɨŋgwɨmar. Ave mbɨ Jisasɨh amarɨmar. Itɨ kɨvah hamb ihɨnd nanchɨŋ ŋgɨŋe awarohe ñɨñmbɨri amar. Amɨ itɨ kɨvah han kiaŋgwɨn ihɨnd nanch han erere etoz amar.
As soon as a woman whose little daughter had an evil spirit heard about him, she came and fell at his feet.
The woman was Greek, born in Syrophoenicia. She begged Jesus to drive out the demon from her daughter.
27 Avɨz Jisasɨv ndɨn kamar. Arɨ nornanchɨnd unsa han ŋe uvi nor han meŋkwanarɨm amar. Arɨ nornanch ŋoz unsa han eŋkwanararɨŋ amar.
“First let the children eat until they're full,” Jesus replied. “It's not right to take the children's food and throw it to the dogs.”
28 Avɨz mbɨ Jisasɨh mbɨŋ ke kamar. Wɨram Ohɨra, han mɨŋun amar. Kɨrɨm uvi nor hambez antɨm kwɨŋ ñi unsa ekeka nornanchɨv hɨrɨzɨŋgamŋgɨj han namŋgɨjaŋg amar.
“True, sir,” she said, “but even the dogs under the table eat the scraps the children leave.”
29 Az Jisasɨv kamar. Amɨ ya han imbɨrun kan amar. Handɨv itɨ kɨvah hamb nancharɨh ndɨh ereri amar. Amɨ ekwaŋg ov amar.
Jesus told her, “For such an answer you may go—the demon has left your daughter.”
30 Hanave kaz anchɨ mbanamb mbɨkɨr oramɨŋ ekwaŋg we waz itɨ kɨvah hamb etoz, nanchɨrɨv antɨmɨŋ ŋgañɨmar.
She went home and found the child lying on the bed, the demon gone.
31 Mach, Jisasɨv isupɨr aiampɨra Tairɨnd erere ekwaŋg we aiampɨra Saidon ahevakarɨmar. Ahevakare avɨhohe isupɨr ohɨra Dekapolis uhɨmɨŋun akoke yamb ohɨra ondɨhondɨh Galilind ahevakarɨmar.
Leaving the region of Tyre, Jesus passed through Sidon and then on to the Sea of Galilee and the territory of the Ten Cities.
32 Ahevakare handɨh ñɨzand wɨram emŋgemŋga hamb wɨram njemɨn kɨvahɨnsɨnd han ŋe ndɨn hɨraimŋgɨmar. Mbɨ ya hɨreŋɨnd kanj. Mach, mbɨ wɨram kehan hɨrai Jisasɨh ndɨn omanaka insɨŋ ŋgamamɨndɨv mbahon mbahon amarɨmŋgɨmar.
There they brought him a deaf man who also could not speak properly. They asked Jesus to touch the man with his hand and heal him.
33 Avɨz Jisasɨv wɨram mban ŋe osa anchɨ han erere hɨrohe, mbon ikumun ñɨmŋgɨmar. Ñɨmŋgɨz Jisasɨv omanamp mbɨkɨr han njemɨn ŋkiŋg ŋkiŋg sɨhoŋamar. Sɨhoŋe omanamp mbɨkɨr han mpɨñ atazivi wɨram mband zɨhina han mparɨwamar.
After Jesus took him aside from the crowd, Jesus put his fingers in the deaf man's ears. Then he touched the man's tongue with spit.
34 Mach, Jisasɨv ñaŋ sɨhawarohe wɨr aŋkarɨpɨr savɨzɨŋgwi ndɨn kamar. Efata amar. (Jisasɨnd ya mbanand ondo han mbanɨmb: njemɨn uyaki amar.)
Jesus looked up to heaven and with a sigh he said, “Ephphatha,” which means, “Open!”
35 Hanave kaz njemɨn mbɨkɨr hamb uyakaz zɨhina mbɨkɨr hamb imbɨr raz, ya omanenta kamar.
The man's ears were opened, his speech impediment was gone, and he began speaking properly.
36 Avɨz Jisasɨv osa anchɨ han erokare kamar. Wɨram emŋgemŋga kamŋgɨmɨn amar. Az nend. Jisasɨv ndɨŋ erokarɨzaŋg, osa anchɨ hamb ya aŋkarɨpɨr kampɨhe Jisasɨv utuhutuh sɨmar handɨv kamŋgɨmar.
Jesus gave them strict orders not to tell anyone, but the more he said this, the more they spread the news.
37 Ave ndɨŋ zɨŋɨmb aŋkarɨpɨr pɨrorɨŋgaz kamŋgɨmar. Aia arɨmŋgɨmar. Jisasɨv utuhutuh omanenta raj arɨmŋgɨmar. Njemɨn kɨvahɨnsɨnd han, Jisasɨv ndɨŋ omanenta sɨz mbɨ njɨhamŋgɨj arɨmŋgɨmar. Ave karupɨr mahɨnsɨnd han, Jisasɨv ndɨŋez omanenta sɨz mbɨ kamŋgɨj arɨmŋgɨmar.
They were totally amazed and said, “Everything he does is marvelous. He even makes the deaf hear, and the dumb speak.”
