Maatewos 12
1 Yesuus yeroo sana guyyaa Sanbataatiin lafa qotiisaa midhaanii keessa darbe. Barattoonni isaas beelaʼanii asheetii midhaanii ciratanii nyaachuu jalqaban.
At that time Jesus went through the grain fields on the sabbath, and his disciples were hungry and began to pluck ears, and to eat.
2 Fariisonni yommuu waan kana arganitti, “Ilaa! Barattoonni kee waan guyyaa Sanbataatiin hojjechuun seeraan hin eeyyamamne hojjetu” jedhaniin.
But the Pharisees, when they saw it, said to him, Behold, thy disciples do what is not permitted to do upon the sabbath.
3 Innis akkana jedhee deebise; “Yeroo Daawitii fi warri isa wajjin turan beelaʼanitti waan Daawit godhe isin hin dubbifnee?
But he said to them, Have ye not read what David did when he was hungry, he and those with him,
4 Inni mana Waaqaa seene; innii fi warri isa wajjin turanis buddeena kennaa nyaatan; buddeenni sun immoo luboota qofaaf malee isaaniif hin eeyyamamu ture.
how he entered into the house of God, and ate the loaves of the presentation, which was not permitted for him to eat, nor for those with him, except only for the priests?
5 Yookaan akka luboonni mana qulqullummaa keessaa guyyaa Sanbataatiin Sanbata xureessan, taʼus akka yakka taʼee isaanitti hin hedamne isin Seera keessatti hin dubbifnee?
Or have ye not read in the law, that on the sabbath the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are guiltless?
6 Ani isinitti nan hima; kan mana qulqullummaa caalu as jira.
But I say to you, that a greater than the temple is here.
7 Isin, utuu dubbiin, ‘Ani araaran fedha malee aarsaa hin fedhu’jedhu sun maal jechuu akka taʼe beektanii jiraattanii silaa warra yakka hin qabnetti hin murtan ture.
But if ye had known what this means, I desire mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the innocent.
8 Ilmi Namaa Gooftaa Sanbataatii.”
For the Son of man is Lord of the sabbath.
9 Innis achii kaʼee mana sagadaa isaanii seene;
And having departed from there, he went into their synagogue.
10 kunoo, namichi harki irratti goge tokkos achi ture. Isaanis sababii ittiin Yesuusin himatan barbaadaa waan turaniif, “Guyyaa Sanbataatiin nama fayyisuun seeraa?” jedhanii isa gaafatan.
And behold, there was a man having a withered hand. And they interrogated him, asking if it is permitted to heal on the sabbath, so that they might accuse him.
11 Yesuus immoo akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Isin keessaa namni hoolaa tokko qabu, yoo hoolaan sun guyyaa Sanbataatiin boolla keessa buʼe, kan harkisee hin baafanne jiraa?
And he said to them, What man of you will there be, who will have one sheep, and if this falls into a pit on the sabbath, will he not grasp it, and lift it out?
12 Namni immoo hammam hoolaa caalaa gatii guddaa haa qabaatu ree! Kanaafuu Sanbataan waan gaarii hojjechuun eeyyamamaa dha.”
How much therefore a man is superior to a sheep. So then it is permitted to do good on the sabbath.
13 Namichaanis, “Harka kee diriirfadhu” jedhe. Namichis harka diriirfate; harki isaas guutummaatti fayyee akkuma isa kaanii taʼe.
Then he says to the man, Stretch forth thy hand. And he stretched it forth, and it was restored whole, as the other.
14 Fariisonni garuu gad baʼanii akka ittiin Yesuusin ajjeesan mariʼatan.
But when they went out, the Pharisees held a consultation against him, how they might destroy him.
15 Yesuus waan kana beekee iddoo sanaa kaʼee deeme. Namoonni baayʼeenis isa duukaa buʼan; innis dhukkubsattoota isaanii hunda fayyise;
And having known it Jesus withdrew from there, and many multitudes followed him, and he healed them all.
16 akka isaan akka inni beekamu hin goones isaan ajaje.
And he chided them so that they would not make him known,
17 Kunis akka wanni Isaayyaas raajichi dubbate sun raawwatamuuf taʼe; innis akkana jedha:
so that what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which says,
18 “Tajaajilaan koo inni ani filadhe, inni ani jaalladhuu fi inni ani itti gammadu isa kana; ani Hafuura koo isa irra nan kaaʼa; innis sabootatti murtii qajeelaa ni labsa.
Behold, my Boy whom I chose, my beloved in whom my soul is well pleased. I will put my Spirit upon him, and he will declare justice to the Gentiles.
19 Inni hin wacu yookaan hin iyyu; namni tokko illee sagalee isaa karaa irratti hin dhagaʼu.
He will not quarrel, nor will he shout, nor will any man hear his voice in the thoroughfares.
20 Inni hamma akka murtiin qajeelaan moʼu godhutti, shambaqqoo buruqe hin cabsu; foʼaa ibsaa kan seequs hin dhaamsu.
A bruised reed he will not break, and smoldering flax he will not quench, until he sends forth justice for victory.
21 Saboonnis maqaa isaa ni abdatu.”
And in his name Gentiles will hope.
22 Yeroo sanatti namicha hafuura hamaan qabame, kan iji isaa jaamee arrabni isaas dubbachuu dide tokko gara isaa fidan; Yesuusis namicha sana fayyise; namichis dubbachuu fi arguu dandaʼe.
Then a blind and mute man being demon possessed, was brought to him. And he healed him, so as for the blind and mute man both to speak and to see.
23 Namoonni hundinuus dinqifatanii, “Kun Ilma Daawit taʼinnaa?” jedhan.
And all the multitudes were amazed, and said, Is this not the son of David?
24 Fariisonni garuu yommuu kana dhagaʼanitti, “Namichi kun Biʼeelzebuul, hangafa hafuurota hamoo qofaan hafuurota hamoo baasa” jedhan.
But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, This man does not cast out demons, except by Beelzebub the ruler of the demons.
25 Yesuusis yaada isaanii beekee akkana jedheen; “Mootummaan gargar of qoodu hundinuu ni diigama; magaalaan yookaan maatiin gargar of qoodu hundinuus hin dhaabatu.
And having known their thoughts Jesus said to them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to ruin, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.
26 Seexannis Seexana baafnaan, inni gargar of qooda. Yoos mootummaan isaa akkamitti dhaabachuu dandaʼa ree?
And if Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?
27 Erga ani Biʼeelzebuuliin hafuurota hamoo baasee, ijoolleen keessan immoo maaliin baasu ree? Kanaafuu isaan abbootii murtii isinitti taʼu.
And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Because of this they will be your judges.
28 Garuu ani Hafuura Waaqaatiin hafuurota hamoo baasa taanaan, yoos mootummaan Waaqaa isinitti dhufeera.
But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come near you.
29 “Yookaan namni kam iyyuu yoo duraan dursee nama jabaa tokko hidhe malee akkamitti mana nama jabaa sanaa seenee qabeenya isaa saamuu dandaʼa? Ergasii inni mana isaa saamuu dandaʼa.
Or how can any man enter into the house of the strong man, and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man? And then he will plunder his house.
30 “Namni na wajjin hin jirre kam iyyuu naan morma; namni na wajjin walitti hin qabne kam iyyuus ni bittinneessa.
He who is not with me is against me, and he who does not gather with me scatters.
31 Kanaafuu ani isinittin hima; cubbuu fi arrabsoon hundinuu namaaf ni dhiifama; Hafuura Qulqulluu arrabsuun garuu hin dhiifamu.
Because of this I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven to men, but the blasphemy of the Spirit will not be forgiven men.
32 Nama Ilma Namaatiin mormee jecha tokko dubbatu kamiif iyyuu ni dhiifama; nama Hafuura Qulqulluudhaan mormee dubbatu kamiif iyyuu garuu, addunyaa kana irratti yookaan addunyaa dhufuuf jiru irratti hin dhiifamu. (aiōn g165)
And whoever speaks a word against the Son of man, it will be forgiven him, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, neither in the present age, nor in the one that is coming. (aiōn g165)
33 “Muka gaarii qabaadhaa; iji isaa gaarii taʼaa; muka gadhee qabaadhaa; iji isaa gadhee taʼaa; mukni ija isaatiin beekamaatii.
Either make the tree good, and its fruit good, or make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt, for the tree is known by its fruit.
34 Isin yaa ijoollee buutii nana, isin warri hamoon akkamitti waan gaarii dubbachuu dandeessu? Waan garaa guute afaan dubbataatii.
Ye offspring of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
35 Namni gaariin waan gaarii garaa isaa keessa jiru keessaa waan gaarii baasa; namni hamaan immoo waan hamaa garaa isaa keessa jiru keessaa waan hamaa baasa.
The good man out of his good treasure brings forth good things, and the evil man out of his evil treasure brings forth evil things.
36 Ani garuu isinittin hima; guyyaa murtiitti namoonni dubbii akkuma argan dubbatan hundumatti ni gaafatamu.
But I say to you, that every idle word, whatever men may speak, they will render account about it in the day of judgment.
37 Dubbii keetiin qajeelaa taasifamtaatii; dubbii keetiinis sitti murama.”
For from thy words thou will be justified, and from thy words thou will be condemned.
38 Ergasii barsiistonni seeraatii fi Fariisonni tokko tokko, “Yaa barsiisaa, nu mallattoo sirraa arguu barbaanna” jedhaniin.
Then some of the scholars and Pharisees answered, saying, Teacher, we want to see a sign from thee.
39 Innis deebisee akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Dhaloonni hamaa fi ejjaan mallattoo barbaada! Garuu mallattoo Yoonaas raajichaa sana malee mallattoon tokko iyyuu hin kennamuuf.
But having answered, he said to them, An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah the prophet.
40 Akkuma Yoonaas guyyaa sadii fi halkan sadii garaa qurxummii guddaa tokkoo keessa ture sana, Ilmi Namaas guyyaa sadii fi halkan sadii garaa lafaa keessa ni turaatii.
For as Jonah was in the belly of the sea-creature three days and three nights, so the Son of man will be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights.
41 Namoonni Nanawwee guyyaa murtiitti dhaloota kana wajjin kaʼanii itti muru; isaan lallaba Yoonaasiin qalbii jijjiirrataniitii; kunoo, kan Yoonaasin caalu as jira.
The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, a greater than Jonah is here.
42 Mootittiin kibbaa guyyaa murtiitti dhaloota kana wajjin kaatee itti murti; isheen ogummaa Solomoon dhagaʼuuf jettee daarii lafaatii dhufteetii; kunoo, kan Solomoonin caalu as jira.
The queen of the south will rise up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
43 “Hafuurri xuraaʼaan yommuu nama keessaa baʼutti, boqonnaa barbaacha lafa gogaa keessa joora; garuu hin argatu.
But when the unclean spirit goes forth out of the man, it passes through waterless places, seeking rest, and finds it not.
44 Innis, ‘Mana koo isa ani keessaa baʼe sanatti nan deebiʼa’ jedha. Yommuu achi gaʼuttis manicha duwwaa taʼee, haramee qulqulleeffamee, qopheeffames argata.
Then it says, I will return into my house from where I came out. And when it comes, it finds it empty, swept, and put in order.
45 Ergasiis dhaqee hafuurota biraa torba kanneen isa caalaa hamoo taʼan fudhatee dhufa; isaanis itti galanii achi jiraatu. Haalli namicha sanaa kan dhumaa isa jalqabaa caalaa hammaata. Dhaloonni hamaan kunis akkasuma taʼa.”
Then it goes, and takes with itself seven other spirits more evil than itself, and having enter in, they dwell there. And the last state of that man becomes worse than the first. So it will also be to this evil generation.
46 Utuu Yesuus amma iyyuu namootatti dubbachaa jiruu kunoo, haatii fi obboloonni isaa isa wajjin haasaʼuu barbaadanii ala dhadhaabachaa turan.
While he was still speaking to the multitudes, behold, his mother and his brothers had stood outside, seeking to speak to him.
47 Namni tokkos, “Haati keetii fi obboloonni kee si wajjin haasaʼuu barbaadanii ala dhadhaabatu” jedhee isatti hime.
And some man said to him, Behold, thy mother and thy brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to thee.
48 Innis deebiseefii, “Haati koo eenyu? Obboloonni koos eenyu faʼi?” jedheen.
But having answered, he said to the man who told him, Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?
49 Harka isaas gara barattoota isaatti qabee akkana jedhe; “Haati kootii fi obboloonni koo kunoo ti.
And having stretched forth his hand towards his disciples, he said, Behold, my mother and my brothers.
50 Namni fedhii Abbaa koo isa samii irraa guutu kam iyyuu obboleessa koo ti; obboleettii koo ti; haadha kootis.”
For whoever does the will of my Father in the heavens, he is my brother, and sister, and mother.
