Maarqos 1
1 Jalqaba wangeela Yesuus Kiristoos Ilma Waaqaa.
A beginning of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, 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 is written in the prophets —“Take note, I am sending my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.”
3 “Sagalee nama, ‘Gooftaaf karaa qopheessaa; daandii qajeelaas isaaf hojjedhaa’ jedhee gammoojjii keessaa iyyu tokkoo.”
“A voice calling out: ‘In the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord, make His paths straight!’”—
4 Kanaafuu Yohannis gammoojjii keessatti nama cuuphaa, dhiifama cubbuutiif immoo cuuphaa qalbii jijjiirrannaa lallabaa dhufe.
John started baptizing in the wilderness and proclaiming a baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins.
5 Biyyi Yihuudaa guutuunii fi namoonni Yerusaalem hundinuus gara isaa dhaqanii cubbuu isaanii himachaa, Laga Yordaanos keessatti isaan cuuphamaa turan.
Well, the whole Judean countryside and the Jerusalemites started going out to him, and were all being baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins.
6 Yohannis uffata rifeensa gaalaa irraa hojjetame uffatee, mudhii isaas sabbata teephaatiin hidhata ture; inni hawwaannisaa fi damma bosonaa nyaata ture.
Now John was clothed with camel's hair and with a leather belt around his waist; and he was eating 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 was proclaiming: “After me my Superior is coming, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen.
8 Ani bishaaniinan isin cuupha; inni garuu Hafuura Qulqulluudhaan isin cuupha.”
I indeed baptized you with water, but He will baptize you with Holy Spirit.”
9 Yeroo sana Yesuus Naazreeti ishee Galiilaatii dhufee Laga Yordaanos keessatti Yohannisiin cuuphame.
Well it happened in those days that Jesus came from Natsareth of Galilee and 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 coming up from the water He saw the heavens being torn open and the Spirit, like a dove, descending upon Him.
11 Sagaleen, “Ati Ilma koo isa ani jaalladhuu dha; ani baayʼee sitti nan gammada” jedhu tokkos samii irraa dhufe.
And a Voice came from the heavens: “You are my Son, the beloved, in whom I am well pleased!”
12 Yeruma sana Hafuurri gammoojjiitti isa baase;
Immediately the Spirit impelled Him into the wilderness.
13 inni guyyaa afurtama Seexanaan qoramaa gammoojjii keessa ture. Inni bineensota wajjin ture; ergamoonnis isa tajaajilan.
And He was there in the wilderness forty days being tested by Satan, and was with the wild animals; and the angels were ministering to Him.
14 Erga Yohannis mana hidhaatti galfamee booddee, Yesuus wangeela Waaqaa lallabaa Galiilaa seene.
Now after John was put in prison, Jesus went into Galilee proclaiming the Gospel of the Kingdom of God,
15 Innis, “Barri sun gaʼeera; mootummaan Waaqaas dhiʼaateera; qalbii jijjiirradhaatii wangeelatti amanaa!” jedhe.
and saying: “The time has been fulfilled and the Kingdom of God has approached. 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.
Then, as He was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew his brother, of Simon, casting a circular net onto the water, for they were fishermen.
17 Yesuusis, “Kottaa, na duukaa buʼaa; anis akka isin qabduu namootaa taataniif isin nan erga” jedheen.
So Jesus said to them: “Come, follow me and I will turn you into fishers of men.”
18 Isaanis yommusuma kiyyoo isaanii dhiisanii isa duukaa buʼan.
At once they left their nets and followed Him.
19 Innis yommuu xinnoo achi hiiqetti Yaaqoob ilma Zabdewoosii fi obboleessa isaa Yohannis utuu isaan bidiruu keessatti kiyyoowwan isaanii qopheeffatanuu arge.
And going on from there a little ways He saw James, son of Zebedee, and his brother John; they were in their boat mending their nets.
20 Innis yommusuma isaan waame; isaanis abbaa isaanii Zabdewoosin hojjettoota qacaraman wajjin bidiruu sana keessatti dhiisanii isa duukaa buʼan.
Right away He called them, and leaving their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men they followed Him.
21 Isaan gara Qifirnaahom dhaqan; innis yommusuma Sanbataan mana sagadaa seenee barsiise.
Then they went into Capernaum. The very next Sabbath He entered the synagogue and began to teach.
22 Inni akka barsiistota seeraatti utuu hin taʼin akka nama taayitaa qabu tokkootti waan barsiisaa tureef namoonni barsiisa isaa ni dinqisiifatan.
And they kept on being amazed at His teaching, because He was teaching them as one having authority, and not like the scribes.
23 Yeruma sana namichi mana sagadaa isaanii keessaa kan hafuura xuraaʼaan qabame tokko iyyee
Now there was a man in their synagogue 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: “Hey, what do you want with us, Jesus Natsarene?! 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.
So Jesus rebuked him saying: “Shut up and get out of him!”
26 Hafuurri xuraaʼaan sunis namicha dhidhiitachiisee, sagalee guddaadhaan iyyee keessaa baʼe.
The unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.
27 Namoonni hundinuu baayʼee dinqifatanii, “Kun maalii? Inni taayitaadhaan barsiisa haaraa barsiisa! Hafuurota xuraaʼoo illee ni ajaja; isaanis ni ajajamuuf” waliin jedhan.
And all were astounded, so that they questioned among themselves, saying: “What is this? What can this new doctrine be? Because with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him!”
28 Oduun waaʼee isaas dafee biyya Galiilaa guutuu keessa faffacaʼe.
So His fame spread directly into the whole surrounding area of Galilee.
29 Isaanis akkuma mana sagadaatii baʼaniin Yaaqoobii fi Yohannis wajjin mana Simoonii fi Indiriiyaas dhaqan.
Immediately upon exiting 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.
Simon's mother-in-law was lying down with a fever, so without delay they told Him about her.
31 Innis dhaqee harka qabee ishee kaase. Dhagna gubaan sunis ishee dhiise; isheenis isaan tajaajiluu jalqabde.
So He went and grasping her hand lifted her up; immediately the fever left her and she began to serve them.
32 Namoonnis galgala sana erga biiftuun lixxee booddee, dhukkubsattootaa fi warra hafuurota hamoon qabaman hunda Yesuusitti fidan.
That evening, when the sun had set, they started bringing to Him all who were sick and the demonized.
33 Magaalaan sun guutuunis balbala duratti walitti qabame.
So much so that the whole town was gathered 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 sick with various diseases and cast out many demons; and He did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew He was Messiah.
35 Yesuus ganama barii dimimmisaan kaʼee manaa baʼee iddoo namni hin jirre tokko dhaqee achitti kadhate.
Now very early, still night, He got up, slipped out, and went off to a solitary place, where He was praying.
36 Simoonii fi warri isa wajjin turan isa barbaaduu deeman;
Simon and those with him hunted for Him,
37 isaanis yommuu isa argatanitti, “Namni hundinuu si barbaadaa jira!” jedhaniin.
and upon finding Him they said to Him, “Everyone is looking for you.”
38 Yesuus immoo deebisee, “Akka ani achittis lallabuuf kottaa gara magaalaawwan dhiʼoo jiran kaanii dhaqnaa. Sababiin ani dhufeefis kanuma” jedhe.
But He said to them: “Let us go to the neighboring towns, so I can preach there also; that is why I have come.”
39 Kanaafuu inni manneen sagadaa isaanii keessatti lallabaa, hafuurota hamoos baasaa, Galiilaa guutuu keessa deeme.
He was constantly preaching in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and also casting out demons.
40 Namichi lamxaaʼaan tokko gara isaa dhufee jilbeenfatee, “Yoo fedhii kee taʼe, ati na qulqulleessuu ni dandeessa” jedhee isa kadhate.
A leper came to Him, imploring Him, kneeling before Him and saying to Him, “If you want to, you are able to cleanse me.”
41 Yesuusis garaa laafeefii, harka isaa hiixatee namicha qaqqabee, “Fedhii koo ti; qulqullaaʼi!” jedheen.
So being moved with compassion, Jesus stretched out His hand and touched him, and said to him: “I want to; be cleansed!”
42 Yeruma sana lamxiin sun namicha irraa bade; namichis ni qulqullaaʼe.
And when He said this, immediately the leprosy left him, and he was cleansed.
43 Yesuusis of eeggannoo jabaa kenneefii yommusuma gad isa dhiise.
And He sent him away at once, sternly warning him,
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.”
by saying: “See that you say nothing to anyone; but go, show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing the things that Moses commanded, as a testimony to 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.
However he went out and began to proclaim it freely, spreading the news, so that He was no longer able to enter a town openly, but remained outside in deserted places; yet they kept coming to Him from all over.
