1 Jalqaba wangeela Yesuus Kiristoos Ilma Waaqaa.
The beginning of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
2 Kitaaba Isaayyaas raajichaa keessatti akkana jedhamee barreeffameera: “Kunoo, ani ergamaa koo isa karaa kee qopheessu, si dura nan erga;”
As it has been written by the prophet Isaiah: “Behold, I send my Angel before your face, who shall prepare your way before you.
3 “Sagalee nama, ‘Gooftaaf karaa qopheessaa; daandii qajeelaas isaaf hojjedhaa’ jedhee gammoojjii keessaa iyyu tokkoo.”
The voice of one crying out in the desert: Prepare the way of the Lord; make straight his paths.”
4 Kanaafuu Yohannis gammoojjii keessatti nama cuuphaa, dhiifama cubbuutiif immoo cuuphaa qalbii jijjiirrannaa lallabaa dhufe.
John was in the desert, baptizing and preaching a baptism of repentance, as a remission of sins.
5 Biyyi Yihuudaa guutuunii fi namoonni Yerusaalem hundinuus gara isaa dhaqanii cubbuu isaanii himachaa, Laga Yordaanos keessatti isaan cuuphamaa turan.
And there went out to him all the region of Judea and all those of Jerusalem, and they were baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
6 Yohannis uffata rifeensa gaalaa irraa hojjetame uffatee, mudhii isaas sabbata teephaatiin hidhata ture; inni hawwaannisaa fi damma bosonaa nyaata ture.
And John was clothed with camel’s hair and with a leather belt around his waist. And he ate locusts and wild honey.
7 Innis akkana jedhee lallabaa ture; “Kan na caalaa jabaa taʼe, hidhaa kophee isaa illee gad jedhee hiikuun kan naaf hin malle tokko na duubaan ni dhufa.
And he preached, saying: “One stronger than me comes after me. I am not worthy to reach down and loosen the laces of his shoes.
8 Ani bishaaniinan isin cuupha; inni garuu Hafuura Qulqulluudhaan isin cuupha.”
I have baptized you with water. Yet truly, he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
9 Yeroo sana Yesuus Naazreeti ishee Galiilaatii dhufee Laga Yordaanos keessatti Yohannisiin cuuphame.
And it happened that, in those days, Jesus arrived from Nazareth of Galilee. And he was baptized by John in the Jordan.
10 Yesuus utuma bishaan keessaa ol baʼaa jiruu, samiin banamee utuu Hafuurri akkuma gugeetti isa irratti gad buʼuu arge.
And immediately, upon ascending from the water, he saw the heavens opened and the Spirit, like a dove, descending, and remaining with him.
11 Sagaleen, “Ati Ilma koo isa ani jaalladhuu dha; ani baayʼee sitti nan gammada” jedhu tokkos samii irraa dhufe.
And there was a voice from heaven: “You are my beloved Son; in you I am well pleased.”
12 Yeruma sana Hafuurri gammoojjiitti isa baase;
And immediately the Spirit prompted him into the desert.
13 inni guyyaa afurtama Seexanaan qoramaa gammoojjii keessa ture. Inni bineensota wajjin ture; ergamoonnis isa tajaajilan.
And he was in the desert for forty days and forty nights. And he was tempted by Satan. And he was with the wild animals, and the Angels ministered to him.
14 Erga Yohannis mana hidhaatti galfamee booddee, Yesuus wangeela Waaqaa lallabaa Galiilaa seene.
Then, after John was handed over, Jesus went into Galilee, preaching the Gospel of the kingdom of God,
15 Innis, “Barri sun gaʼeera; mootummaan Waaqaas dhiʼaateera; qalbii jijjiirradhaatii wangeelatti amanaa!” jedhe.
and saying: “For the time has been fulfilled and the kingdom of God has drawn near. Repent and believe in the Gospel.”
16 Yesuus utuu qarqara Galaana Galiilaa irra deemaa jiruu Simoonii fi obboleessa isaa Indiriiyaas utuu isaan kiyyoo galaanatti darbachaa jiranuu arge; isaan qurxummii qabdoota turaniitii.
And passing by the shore of the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew, casting nets into the sea, for they were fishermen.
17 Yesuusis, “Kottaa, na duukaa buʼaa; anis akka isin qabduu namootaa taataniif isin nan erga” jedheen.
And Jesus said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.”
18 Isaanis yommusuma kiyyoo isaanii dhiisanii isa duukaa buʼan.
And at once abandoning their nets, they followed him.
19 Innis yommuu xinnoo achi hiiqetti Yaaqoob ilma Zabdewoosii fi obboleessa isaa Yohannis utuu isaan bidiruu keessatti kiyyoowwan isaanii qopheeffatanuu arge.
And continuing on a little ways from there, he saw James of Zebedee and his brother John, and they were mending their nets in a boat.
20 Innis yommusuma isaan waame; isaanis abbaa isaanii Zabdewoosin hojjettoota qacaraman wajjin bidiruu sana keessatti dhiisanii isa duukaa buʼan.
And immediately he called them. And leaving behind their father Zebedee in the boat with his hired hands, they followed him.
21 Isaan gara Qifirnaahom dhaqan; innis yommusuma Sanbataan mana sagadaa seenee barsiise.
And they entered into Capernaum. And entering into the synagogue promptly on the Sabbaths, he taught them.
22 Inni akka barsiistota seeraatti utuu hin taʼin akka nama taayitaa qabu tokkootti waan barsiisaa tureef namoonni barsiisa isaa ni dinqisiifatan.
And they were astonished over his doctrine. For he was teaching them as one who has authority, and not like the scribes.
23 Yeruma sana namichi mana sagadaa isaanii keessaa kan hafuura xuraaʼaan qabame tokko iyyee
And in their synagogue, there was a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,
24 akkana jedhe; “Yaa Yesuus nama Naazreeti, ati maal nurraa qabda? Nu balleessuu dhufte moo? Ati eenyu akka taate ani nan beeka, yaa Qulqullicha Waaqaa!”
saying: “What are we to you, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: the Holy One of God.”
25 Yesuus immoo, “Calʼisii isa keessaa baʼi!” jedhee ifate.
And Jesus admonished him, saying, “Be silent, and depart from the man.”
26 Hafuurri xuraaʼaan sunis namicha dhidhiitachiisee, sagalee guddaadhaan iyyee keessaa baʼe.
And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying out with a loud voice, departed from him.
27 Namoonni hundinuu baayʼee dinqifatanii, “Kun maalii? Inni taayitaadhaan barsiisa haaraa barsiisa! Hafuurota xuraaʼoo illee ni ajaja; isaanis ni ajajamuuf” waliin jedhan.
And they were all so amazed that they inquired among themselves, saying: “What is this? And what is this new doctrine? For with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.”
28 Oduun waaʼee isaas dafee biyya Galiilaa guutuu keessa faffacaʼe.
And his fame went out quickly, throughout the entire region of Galilee.
29 Isaanis akkuma mana sagadaatii baʼaniin Yaaqoobii fi Yohannis wajjin mana Simoonii fi Indiriiyaas dhaqan.
And soon after departing from the synagogue, they went into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30 Haati niitii Simoonis dhukkuba dhagna gubaadhaan qabamtee ciifti turte; isaanis yommusuma waaʼee ishee Yesuusitti himan.
But the mother-in-law of Simon lay ill with a fever. And at once they told him about her.
31 Innis dhaqee harka qabee ishee kaase. Dhagna gubaan sunis ishee dhiise; isheenis isaan tajaajiluu jalqabde.
And drawing near to her, he raised her up, taking her by the hand. And immediately the fever left her, and she ministered to them.
32 Namoonnis galgala sana erga biiftuun lixxee booddee, dhukkubsattootaa fi warra hafuurota hamoon qabaman hunda Yesuusitti fidan.
Then, when evening arrived, after the sun had set, they brought to him all who had maladies and those who had demons.
33 Magaalaan sun guutuunis balbala duratti walitti qabame.
And the entire city was gathered together at the door.
34 Yesuusis namoota dhibee garaa garaa qaban hedduu fayyise; hafuurota hamoo baayʼees ni baase; garuu inni sababii hafuuronni hamoon sun eenyummaa isaa beekaniif akka isaan dubbatan hin eeyyamneef.
And he healed many who were troubled with various illnesses. And he cast out many demons, but he would not permit them to speak, because they knew him.
35 Yesuus ganama barii dimimmisaan kaʼee manaa baʼee iddoo namni hin jirre tokko dhaqee achitti kadhate.
And rising up very early, departing, he went out to a deserted place, and there he prayed.
36 Simoonii fi warri isa wajjin turan isa barbaaduu deeman;
And Simon, and those who were with him, followed after him.
37 isaanis yommuu isa argatanitti, “Namni hundinuu si barbaadaa jira!” jedhaniin.
And when they had found him, they said to him, “For everyone is seeking you.”
38 Yesuus immoo deebisee, “Akka ani achittis lallabuuf kottaa gara magaalaawwan dhiʼoo jiran kaanii dhaqnaa. Sababiin ani dhufeefis kanuma” jedhe.
And he said to them: “Let us go into the neighboring towns and cities, so that I may preach there also. Indeed, it was for this reason that I came.”
39 Kanaafuu inni manneen sagadaa isaanii keessatti lallabaa, hafuurota hamoos baasaa, Galiilaa guutuu keessa deeme.
And he was preaching in their synagogues and throughout all of Galilee, and casting out demons.
40 Namichi lamxaaʼaan tokko gara isaa dhufee jilbeenfatee, “Yoo fedhii kee taʼe, ati na qulqulleessuu ni dandeessa” jedhee isa kadhate.
And a leper came to him, begging him. And kneeling down, he said to him, “If you are willing, you are able to cleanse me.”
41 Yesuusis garaa laafeefii, harka isaa hiixatee namicha qaqqabee, “Fedhii koo ti; qulqullaaʼi!” jedheen.
Then Jesus, taking pity on him, reached out his hand. And touching him, he said to him: “I am willing. Be cleansed.”
42 Yeruma sana lamxiin sun namicha irraa bade; namichis ni qulqullaaʼe.
And after he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.
43 Yesuusis of eeggannoo jabaa kenneefii yommusuma gad isa dhiise.
And he admonished him, and he promptly sent him away.
44 Akkanas jedheen; “Ati waan kana nama tokkotti illee akka hin himne beekkadhu; garuu dhaqiitii akka isaaniif ragaa taʼuuf lubatti of argisiisi; qulqullaaʼuu keetiifis aarsaawwan Museen ajaje sana dhiʼeessi.”
And he said to him: “See to it that you tell no one. But go and show yourself to the high priest, and offer for your cleansing that which Moses instructed, as a testimony for them.”
45 Namichi garuu achii baʼee baayʼisee odeessuu jalqabe. Kanaafis Yesuus ergasii magaalaan ala, lafa namni hin jirre ture malee ifaan ifatti magaalattii seenuu hin dandeenye. Namoonni garuu iddoo hundatti isa bira dhufaa turan.
But having departed, he began to preach and to disseminate the word, so that he was no longer able to openly enter a city, but had to remain outside, in deserted places. And they were gathered to him from every direction.
