Mak 8
1 Mach haŋonaŋg, wɨram akŋ anchɨ akŋ hamb ekwaŋg ai aŋkwezawi ñɨhɨrɨmŋgɨmar. Mbɨ unsa mah apar. Handɨv Jisasɨv mbɨkɨr sezɨr han oreŋgɨz aimŋgɨmar. Aimŋgɨz ndɨŋ kamar.
About that time, when there was again a great crowd of people who had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples to him, and said,
2 Wɨram akŋ anchɨ akŋ mbanamb yanɨmen rapɨr undɨmapam ñɨmŋgɨndɨŋgi amar. Ave irɨh mbɨ unsa mah apar ñɨhɨrɨmŋgi amar. Handɨv nzɨ ndɨŋ waŋ yan akŋɨn ahi amar.
“My heart is moved at the sight of all these people, for they have already been with me three days and they have nothing to eat;
3 Nzɨ ndɨŋ kaŋ, mbɨndɨŋ oramɨŋ we unsandɨv mamŋgɨz, mbɨndɨŋ ampɨn hamb eraher awɨz empasamɨŋ aŋkɨramandɨramŋgi amar. Hanaveaŋg ui taŋɨpɨr ohɨra aimŋgɨndɨŋgi amar.
and if I send them away to their homes hungry, they will break down on the way; and some of them have come a long distance.”
4 Mach, sezɨrɨv mbɨŋ ndɨn kamŋgɨmar. Isupɨr mbanan wɨram mah arɨmŋgɨmar. Arɨ eŋka han nzɨhandɨh ŋe wɨram akŋ anchɨ akŋ mban eŋkwanarɨŋ ndɨŋ mpɨkarɨndari arɨmŋgɨmar.
“Where will it be possible,” his disciples answered, “to get sufficient bread for these people in this lonely place?”
5 Avɨz Jisasɨv ndɨŋ amarɨmar. Amɨ eŋka han nzɨhanave hɨrañɨmŋgɨn amar. Az ndɨn kamŋgɨmar. Ahins arɨmŋgɨmar.
“How many loaves have you?” he asked. “Seven,” they answered.
6 Mach, Jisasɨv kaz wɨram akŋ anchɨ akŋ hamb isaŋ ŋgarɨwɨmŋgɨmar. Avɨz Jisasɨv eŋka ahins mban ŋe ñaŋ sɨhawarohe were Yakŋ Ohɨrah ya imbɨr eŋgwamar. Ave mbɨ eŋka mban ŋaŋepev mbɨkɨr sezɨr hamb wɨram akŋ anchɨ akŋ mban eŋkwanamŋgɨz are ndɨŋ eŋgwamar. Eŋgwaz mbɨ wɨram akŋ anchɨ akŋ han kɨrɨm eŋkwanamŋgɨmar.
Jesus told the crowd to sit down on the ground. Then he took the seven loaves, and, after saying the thanksgiving, broke them, and gave them to his disciples to serve out; and they served them out to the crowd.
7 Mach, mbɨ oma uŋguŋg hanaveaŋg hɨrañɨmŋgɨmar. Avɨz Jisasɨv han ŋe Yakŋ Ohɨrah ya imbɨr eŋgwe sezɨr eŋgwaz hanez eŋkwanamŋgɨmar.
They had also a few small fish; and, after he had said the blessing, he told the disciples to serve out these as well.
8 Avɨz mbɨ namŋgɨz ndɨŋ mpɨkarɨmar. Ave unsa ekeka han aŋkwezawi iŋkimpiñ ohɨra ahins haŋ mpamŋgɨz torɨmar.
The people had sufficient to eat, and they picked up seven baskets full of the broken pieces that were left.
9 Wɨram akŋ anchɨ akŋ hamb ñɨmŋgɨmar han 4,000 emamp. Ave Jisasɨv ndɨŋ kaz kɨrɨm omŋgɨmar.
There were about four thousand people. Then Jesus dismissed them.
10 Mach, Jisasɨv sezɨrmen utɨŋg unchaŋ ŋkwetohe isupɨr Dalmanutand handɨh omŋgɨmar.
Immediately afterward, getting into the boat with his disciples, Jesus went to the district of Dalmanutha.
11 Mach, wɨram untɨm Farisind hamb ai Jisasmen ya amɨherɨmŋgɨmar. Jisasɨv ntɨŋ aŋkarɨpɨr pamuh han mbɨramɨz are, Yakŋ Ohɨrav ndɨn kaz mbɨ ntɨŋ Yakŋ Ohɨrand ŋaj oh o nend arɨmŋgɨmar. Han waŋɨn are ndɨn ondo mpamŋgɨmar.
Here the Pharisees came out, and began to argue with Jesus, asking him for some sign from the heavens, to test him.
12 Avɨz Jisasɨv wɨr aŋkarɨpɨr ohɨra ŋaz mbɨkɨr mpɨ hamb kɨr ohɨra ñɨmar. Ave mbɨ kamar. Utɨndɨv osa anchɨ irɨh ñɨmŋgɨmbɨri mbanamb ntɨŋ aŋkarɨpɨr han waŋɨn are kamŋgi amar. Andɨŋ mɨŋun kin amar. Ntɨŋ aŋkarɨpɨr hamb mbɨramɨz Yakŋ Ohɨrav yan kaz nzɨ Yakŋ Ohɨrand ntɨŋ ŋajin han, han amɨ mɨwandɨramŋgɨm amar. Nendon amar.
Sighing deeply, Jesus said, “Why does this generation ask for a sign? I tell you, no sign will be given it.”
13 Mach ave, mbɨ ndɨŋ erere utɨŋg unchaŋ ŋkwuhi yamb ohɨra ondɨhondɨh ŋkiŋgɨŋ evahetomar.
So he left them to themselves, and, getting into the boat again, went away to the opposite shore.
14 Mach, sezɨrɨv njɨhi eraher awi eŋka han mɨhɨraimŋgɨm. Mbɨndɨŋ eŋka pamuh hamb utɨŋg handɨh ñɨmar.
Now the disciples had forgotten to take any bread with them, one loaf being all that they had in the boat.
15 Avɨz Jisasɨv ndɨŋ ya aŋkarɨpɨr kamar. Njɨhambar amar. Amɨ yis wɨram untɨm Farisind Herotɨnd han omanenton wehɨrɨvar amar. f
So Jesus gave them this warning. “Take care,” he said, “beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod.”
16 Az sezɨrɨv mbon mbon kamŋgɨmar. Arɨ eŋka mah raz handɨv mbɨ ya mban ki toh arɨmŋgɨmar.
They began talking to one another about their being short of bread;
17 Mach, Jisasɨv mbɨndɨŋ ya kamŋgɨmar mban ndɨh wamar. Ave ndɨŋ mbanave kamar. Utɨndɨv ya mbanan amon amon kamŋgɨn, arɨ eŋka mah arar kamŋgɨn amar. Amɨ omanenta mɨwamŋgɨrɨm oh a amar. Andɨŋ njɨhi mah oh a amar. Az handɨv amandɨŋ njɨhi hamb moyakam oh a amar.
and, noticing this, Jesus said to them, “Why are you talking about your being short of bread? Don’t you yet see or understand? Are your minds still so slow of comprehension?
18 Andɨŋ ampɨn mbah, kɨrɨm amɨ hanɨhan han mɨwamŋgɨrɨm oh a amar. Andɨŋ njemɨn mbah, kɨrɨm amɨ ya han mɨnjɨhamŋgɨrɨm oh a amar. Amɨ njɨhi eraher awɨmŋgɨn toh amar.
Though you have eyes, do you not see? And though you have ears, do you not hear? Don’t you remember,
19 Eŋambɨr han nzɨ eŋka oman ŋkɨpam han ŋaŋepev 5,000 wɨram han eŋkwanen amar. Az amɨ unsa ekeka han iŋkimpiñ han nzɨhanave mpamŋgan amar. Az kamŋgɨmar. Oman ŋkiŋkiŋg undɨmaj arɨmŋgɨmar.
when I broke up the five loaves for the five thousand, how many baskets of broken pieces you picked up?” “Twelve,” they said.
20 Mach, ekwaŋg han nzɨ eŋka ahins han ŋaŋepev 4,000 wɨram akŋ anchɨ akŋ han eŋkwanen amar. Az amɨ unsa ekeka han iŋkimpiñ ohɨra han nzɨhanave mpamŋgan amar. Az ndɨn kamŋgɨmar. Ahins arɨmŋgɨmar.
“And when the seven for the four thousand, how many basketfuls of broken pieces did you pick up?” “Seven,” they said.
21 Az Jisasɨv ndɨŋ kamar. Amɨ utɨndɨv omanenta wamah ramŋgɨrɨn amar.
“Don’t you understand now?” he repeated.
22 Mach, Jisasɨv sezɨrmen we aiampɨra Betsaidaŋ ahevɨkɨrorɨmŋgɨmar. Avɨz osa anchɨ hamb wɨram emŋga ampɨn kɨvahɨnsɨnd han Jisasɨnd pɨŋ hɨraimŋgɨmar. Ave mbɨ Jisasɨv mbɨkɨr omanaka ndɨn insɨŋ ŋgamɨz are mbahon mbahon amarɨmŋgɨmar.
They came to Bethsaida. There some people brought a blind man to Jesus, and begged him to touch him.
23 Mach, Jisasɨv wɨram ampɨn kɨvahɨnsɨnd mban oman uŋkɨri aiampɨra injambɨrɨŋ hɨrahevomar. Hɨrahevohe ampɨn mbɨkɨr han mpɨñ atazivɨmar. Ave mbɨ mbɨkɨr omanaka han ndɨn insɨŋ ŋgamɨmar. Ave ndɨn mbanave amarɨmar. Amɨ hanɨhan han wan oh o nend amar.
Taking the blind man’s hand, Jesus led him to the outskirts of the village, and, when he had put saliva on the man’s eyes, he placed his hands on him, and asked him, “Do you see anything?”
24 Ave wɨram mbanamb ñaŋ were kamar. Nzɨ wɨram hanaveaŋg win amar. Kɨrɨm waŋand mbɨ ai emamp ndand omŋgi aimŋgi amar.
The man looked up, and said, “I see the people, for, as they walk about, they look to me like trees.”
25 Az Jisasɨv mbɨkɨr omanaka han ekwaŋg mbɨkɨr ampɨnɨŋ ŋgamɨmar. Avɨz wɨram mbanamb aŋkarɨpɨron werɨz, mbɨkɨr ampɨn hamb imbɨrun ñɨmar. Ave mbɨ hanɨhan akŋ han ovɨherɨzand, mbɨkɨr werer hamb imbɨrun ahevakarɨmar.
Then Jesus again placed his hands on the man’s eyes; and the man saw clearly, his sight was restored, and he saw everything with perfect distinctness.
26 Mach, Jisasɨv ndɨn kamar. Amɨ amakɨr oramɨŋ ov amar. Amɨ aiampɨra uhɨmɨŋ omɨn amar.
Jesus sent him to his home, and said, “Do not go even into the village.”
27 Mach ave, Jisasɨv sezɨrmen ŋondɨrahe aiampɨra akŋ Sisaria Filipai ikwɨm handɨh omŋgɨmar. Ave mbɨ empasamɨŋ mbɨkɨr sezɨrɨh mbanave amarɨmar. Osa anchɨ hamb yanɨh uñɨman oh arar kamŋgɨj amar.
Afterward Jesus and his disciples went into the villages around Caesarea Philippi; and on the way he asked his disciples this question – “Who do people say that I am?”
28 Az mbɨ ndɨn mbanave kamŋgɨmar. Hanaveaŋg nan Jonɨh wɨram osa anchɨ han yambɨŋ ŋazɨkŋirɨŋgwɨŋgw ŋambiahahɨnd hamb arɨmŋgɨj arɨmŋgɨmar. Hanaveaŋg nan Elaija arɨmŋgɨj arɨmŋgɨmar. Mach, hanaveaŋg nan wɨram Yakŋ Ohɨrand ya injambɨr ahe kahɨnd hamb arɨmŋgɨj arɨmŋgɨmar.
“John the Baptist,” they answered, “but others say Elijah, while others say one of the prophets.”
29 Avɨz Jisasɨv sezɨrɨh amarɨmar. Amon han yanɨh uñɨman arar kamŋgɨn amar. Az Pitav ndɨn mbanave kamar. Nan wɨram Yakŋ Ohɨrav mbɨkɨr osa anchɨ ekwaŋg ŋɨmbɨmbɨndɨv uyɨŋgwamɨmar hamb amar.
“But you,” he asked, “who do you say that I am?” To this Peter replied, “You are the Christ.”
30 Avɨz Jisasɨv ndɨŋ erokare kamar. Amɨ wɨram emŋgemŋga han yandɨv kamŋgɨmɨn amar.
At which Jesus charged them not to say this about him to anyone.
31 Mach, Jisasɨv ondo ake sezɨrɨh ya han mbanave sɨkamar. Yakŋ Ohɨrand njɨhi hamb mbanave ñɨmar amar. Wɨramɨnd Nor hamb pɨrɨvɨr ohɨra ŋandari amar. Az wɨram untɨm ohɨra kɨra Judand, wɨram anɨŋnsar kɨra hanɨhan Yakŋ Ohɨrandɨv ahaz ore ŋgamamɨnd, mach wɨram kɨra ya Mosesɨnd injambɨr ahe sɨkahɨnd hamb, mbɨ Wɨramɨnd Nor mapɨŋ ame ndɨn mamta orɨndɨramŋgi amar. Avɨz watɨm yuŋk undɨmapam haŋ ekwaŋg ŋaiahandari amar.
Then he began to teach them that the Son of Man must undergo much suffering, and that he must be rejected by the elders, and the chief priests, and the teachers of the Law, and be put to death, and rise again after three days.
32 Mbɨ ndɨŋ ya han omanenton kampɨhe kaz, Pitav Jisasɨh ya aŋkarɨpɨr ke kamar. Amɨ ya han kamɨn amar.
He said all this quite openly. But Peter took Jesus aside, and began to rebuke him.
33 Avɨz Jisasɨv enarɨŋge sezɨr mbɨkɨr han wehɨre, Pitah ya aŋkarɨpɨr ke kamar. Amɨ Satan haremamp amar. Amɨ ihɨnd mapɨŋ ov amar. Amɨ Yakŋ Ohɨrand njɨhi mɨmpehɨrorɨm amar. Nend amar. Amɨ wɨramɨnd njɨhiŋam mpehɨrorɨn amar.
Jesus, however, turning around and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter. “Out of my sight, Satan!” he exclaimed. “For you look at things, not as God does, but as people do.”
34 Ave Jisasɨv osa anchɨ han sezɨr mbɨkɨr hanez oreŋgɨz, ai awakŋɨmŋgɨmar. Aimŋgɨz Jisasɨv ndɨŋ mbanave kamar. Wɨram emŋgav yan mpehɨroŋɨn are, mbɨ mbɨkɨr njɨhi ŋambiŋgwi ai oŋkɨrand mbɨkɨr han orambi, yan mpehɨroz amar.
Calling the people and his disciples to him, Jesus said, “If anyone wishes to walk in my steps, they must renounce self, take up their cross, and follow me.
35 Wɨram emŋgav kɨpɨr mbɨkɨr han aŋkarɨpɨr ŋambɨñɨz, kɨpɨr mbɨkɨr hamb kwevɨrɨndari amar. Kɨrɨm wɨram emŋgav yandɨv mach Yakŋ Ohɨrand ya imbɨrɨndɨv mbɨkɨr kɨpɨr han ererɨz, mbɨkɨr kɨpɨr hamb imbɨrun ñɨndari amar.
For whoever wishes to save their life will lose it, and whoever, for my sake and for the sake of the good news, will lose their life will save it.
36 Wɨram emŋgav hanɨhan akŋ isupɨr mbanand han ŋaz mach raz, kɨrɨm kɨpɨr mbɨkɨr hamb kwevɨrɨz, hanɨhan akŋ mbanamb ndɨnɨh nzɨhanave hɨrawɨmɨr amar.
What good is it to a person to gain the whole world and forfeit their life?
37 Handɨv wɨramb utɨmanɨŋ uŋkɨ eŋgwe kɨpɨr mbɨkɨr han ekwaŋg ŋandari amar.
For what could a person give that is of equal value with their life?
38 Osa anchɨ irɨh ñɨmŋgɨmbɨri mbanamb, mbɨ Yakŋ Ohɨrah mapɨŋ eŋgwe enta kɨvah kɨvah endɨraparam sɨmŋgɨj amar. Osa anchɨ emŋga mbɨndɨŋ hamb yandɨv mach ihɨnd yandɨv ampi ake ñɨmɨr amar. Mach, njɨmɨnj han Wɨramɨnd Nor hamb mpamɨnd ohɨra wanɨrɨnd ñɨñmbɨri hamb mbɨ Yakŋ Ohɨrand mapɨŋ akŋ hamen aindɨramŋgi amar. Aimŋgɨz, osa anchɨ Wɨramɨnd Norɨndɨv ampi akah kehand, mbez ndɨŋ ampi akandari amar.
Whoever is ashamed of me and of my teaching, in this unfaithful and wicked generation, of them will the Son of Man be ashamed, when he comes in his Father’s glory with the holy angels.”
