One day the Pharisees came to him in a body with some Scribes who had come from Jerusalem.
2
They had noticed that some of his disciples were eating with "common," that is to say, unwashed hands.
3
For the Pharisees and all of the Jews do not eat until they have ceremoniously washed their hands in obedience to the tradition of the elders;
4
and when they come from the market-place they do not eat without bathing first. and they have many other customs which they have received and observe, such as the washing of cups and jugs and copper 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 Scribes asked him. "Why do your disciples not follow the traditions of the elders? Why do they eat with ‘common’ unwashed 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.
"Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, hypocrites," he answered. "As it is written, "This people honor me with their lips, While their hearts 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.
But in vain do they worship me, For their teaching is only human precepts.
8 Amɨ Yakŋ Ohɨrand enta han erere wɨramɨnd entaŋam aŋkarɨpɨr mpehɨromŋgɨrɨn amar.
"You neglect the commandment of God, and hold fast the traditions of men."
9 Mach, Jisasɨv mbahon kamar. Amandɨŋ entaŋam mpehɨroŋɨn are, amɨ handɨv Yakŋ Ohɨrand enta han ontamŋgɨrɨn amar.
"It is praiseworthy, is it," he exclaimed, "to reject the command of God that you may keep your tradition!
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.
For although Moses said, Honor your father and mother, and Let him who curses father or mother suffer death,
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.
you say that if a man tells his father or mother, ‘This money which otherwise you would have received from me, is Korban’ (that is, a thing devoted to God),
12 Wɨram mbanamb hanavɨz amɨ ndɨn kamŋgɨrɨn amar. Amɨ hanɨhan amakɨr han ŋe yaŋar onar hɨrawɨmɨn arar kamŋgɨrɨn amar.
you exempt him from doing any service for his father or mother.
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.
Thus by your tradition which you have handed down you set at naught the word of God; and you do many other things like that."
14 Mach, Jisasɨv ekwaŋg wɨram akŋ anchɨ akŋ han oreŋgɨz aimŋgɨmar. Aimŋgɨz kamar. Amɨ mɨŋam ihɨnd ya njɨhame omanenta wavar amar.
Then again he called the crowd to him and said.
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.
"Listen to me, all of you, and understand; there is nothing outside a man which by entering in can defile him; but it is what comes from him that defiled him."
17 Mach, Jisasɨv wɨram akŋ anchɨ akŋ han erere oramɨŋ we ahevohe ñɨzand sezɨrɨv ndɨn ya ahɨmbɨnd ondo handɨv amarɨmŋgɨmar.
After he had left the crowd and gone indoors his disciples began asking him about the parable.
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.)
"Are even you without understanding?" he said. "Do you not perceive that nothing whatever from without can defile a man by entering him,
because it does not go into his heart, but into his belly, and passes away, ejected from him?" By these words he pronounced all foods clean.
20 Ave Jisasɨv mbahon kamar. Njɨhi kɨvah kɨvah wɨramb njɨhamŋgɨj han, wɨramb njɨhi kehan njɨhame si wɨram kɨvah ahevakarɨndari amar.
"What comes out of a man," he continued, "is what defiles him.
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.
From within, from the heart of man, proceed evil purposes -
fornication, theft, murder, adultery, greed, malice, deceit, wantonness, envy, slander, arrogance, reckless folly -
all these wicked things issue from within and defile a man."
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.
After he rose and left that place, he went away into the region of Tyre and Sidon. Here he went into a house and wished no one to know it but he could not be hid.
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.
Forthwith a woman whose little daughter was possessed by an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feet
(the woman was a Greek, a Syro-phoenician by race), and again and again she begged him to cast the demon out of her daughter.
27 Avɨz Jisasɨv ndɨn kamar. Arɨ nornanchɨnd unsa han ŋe uvi nor han meŋkwanarɨm amar. Arɨ nornanch ŋoz unsa han eŋkwanararɨŋ amar.
"Let the children be filled first," he said to her. "It is unseemly to take the children’s bread 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, Master," she answered, "but the dogs under the table do pick up the children’s crumbs."
29 Az Jisasɨv kamar. Amɨ ya han imbɨrun kan amar. Handɨv itɨ kɨvah hamb nancharɨh ndɨh ereri amar. Amɨ ekwaŋg ov amar.
"For that saying of yours, go home," he replied; "the demon has departed from your daughter."
30 Hanave kaz anchɨ mbanamb mbɨkɨr oramɨŋ ekwaŋg we waz itɨ kɨvah hamb etoz, nanchɨrɨv antɨmɨŋ ŋgañɨmar.
So she went home, and found the child lying in her bed and the demon departed.
31 Mach, Jisasɨv isupɨr aiampɨra Tairɨnd erere ekwaŋg we aiampɨra Saidon ahevakarɨmar. Ahevakare avɨhohe isupɨr ohɨra Dekapolis uhɨmɨŋun akoke yamb ohɨra ondɨhondɨh Galilind ahevakarɨmar.
Again he left the region of Tyre, and passed through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee, crossing the District of the Ten Towns.
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.
And they brought to him a deaf man who stammered, and begged him to lay his hands upon 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.
So Jesus took him aside from the crowd, by himself, and put his finger in the man’s ears, and moistened his tongue with saliva;
34 Mach, Jisasɨv ñaŋ sɨhawarohe wɨr aŋkarɨpɨr savɨzɨŋgwi ndɨn kamar. Efata amar. (Jisasɨnd ya mbanand ondo han mbanɨmb: njemɨn uyaki amar.)
then looking up to heaven with a sigh, he said to him, "Ephphatha!" (that is, "Be opened.")
35 Hanave kaz njemɨn mbɨkɨr hamb uyakaz zɨhina mbɨkɨr hamb imbɨr raz, ya omanenta kamar.
And his ears were opened and the bond of his tongue was loosened, and he spoke plainly.
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.
Then Jesus charged them not to tell any one, but the more he charged them, the more they published it;
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.
and people were amazed beyond measure saying. "How successfully he does things! Even the deaf he makes to hear, and the dumb to speak."
