Maatewos 15
1 Ergasii Fariisonnii fi barsiistonni seeraa tokko tokko Yerusaalemii gara Yesuus dhufanii,
Then came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees, who were of Jerusalem, saying,
2 “Barattoonni kee maaliif duudhaa maanguddootaa cabsu? Isaan yommuu buddeena nyaatanitti harka hin dhiqataniitii!” jedhan.
Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread.
3 Yesuusis akkana jedhee deebise; “Isinis maaliif duudhaa keessaniif jettanii ajaja Waaqaa cabsitu?
But he answered and said to them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?
4 Waaqni, ‘Abbaa keetii fi haadha keetiif ulfina kenni; namni abbaa isaa yookaan haadha isaa arrabsu kam iyyuu haa ajjeefamu’jedheeraatii.
For God commanded, saying, Honor thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.
5 Isin garuu yoo namni kam iyyuu akka wanni silaa abbaa isaatiif yookaan haadha isaatiif kennamuu malu ‘Waaqaaf kennameera’ jedhee dubbate,
But ye say, Whoever shall say to [his] father or [his] mother, [It is] a gift, by whatever thou mightest be profited by me;
6 inni waan sanaan abbaa isaatiif yookaan haadha isaatiif ulfina kennuu hin qabu jettu. Akkanaanis isin duudhaa keessaniif jettanii dubbii Waaqaa busheessitu.
And honor not his father or his mother, [he shall be free]. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of no effect by your tradition.
7 Yaa fakkeessitoota! Isaayyaas yommuu waaʼee keessan raajii dubbatetti sirrii ture; innis akkana jedhe:
[Ye] hypocrites, well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,
8 “‘Uumanni kun hidhii isaatiin na kabaja; garaan isaa garuu narraa fagoo jira.
This people draw nigh to me with their mouth, and honor me with [their] lips; but their heart is far from me.
9 Isaan akkanumaan na waaqeffatu; barsiisni isaaniis sirnuma namaa ti.’”
But in vain they do worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.
10 Yesuusis tuuta sana ofitti waamee akkana jedheen; “Dhagaʼaa; hubadhaas.
And he called the multitude, and said to them, Hear, and understand:
11 Waan afaan namaa keessaa baʼutu nama xureessa malee wanni afaan namaa seenu nama hin xureessu.”
Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which cometh out of the mouth, this defileth a man.
12 Ergasii barattoonni gara isaa dhufanii, “Ati akka Fariisonni dubbii kana dhagaʼanii mufatan beektaa?” jedhanii gaafatan.
Then came his disciples, and said to him, Knowest thou that the Pharisees were offended after they heard this saying?
13 Innis deebisee akkana jedhe; “Biqiltuun abbaan koo inni samii irraa hin dhaabin hundinuu ni buqqifama.
But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be extirpated.
14 Isaan dhiisaa; isaan qajeelchitoota jaamota. Jaamaan yoo jaamaa qajeelche, isaan lachuu boolla keessa buʼu.”
Let them alone: they are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind leadeth the blind, both will fall into the ditch.
15 Phexrosis, “Mee hiikkaa fakkeenya kanaa nuu ibsi” jedheen.
Then answered Peter and said to him, Declare to us this parable.
16 Yesuus immoo akkana jedhee isaan gaafate; “Isinis hamma ammaatti hin hubattanii?
And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding?
17 Akka wanni afaan seenu kam iyyuu garaa seenee achumaan darbee dhagna keessaa baʼu hin argitanii?
Do ye not yet understand, that whatever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?
18 Wanni afaan namaatii baʼu garuu nama keessaa baʼa; namichas ni xureessa.
But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.
19 Sababiin isaas yaadni hamaan jechuunis ajjeesuun, ejjummaan, halalummaan, hanni, sobaan dhugaa baʼuun, maqaa nama balleessuun garaa namaa keessaa baʼaatii.
For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies:
20 Wantoota kanneentu nama ‘xureessa’ malee utuu harka hin dhiqatin nyaachuun nama hin xureessu.”
These are [the things] which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man.
21 Yesuusis iddoo sanaa kaʼee gara biyya Xiiroosii fi Siidoonaatti qajeele.
Then Jesus went thence, and departed into the territories of Tyre and Sidon.
22 Kunoo, dubartiin Kanaʼaan tokko naannoo sanaa gara isaa dhuftee iyyaa, “Yaa Gooftaa, yaa Ilma Daawit, intalli koo hafuura hamaadhaan qabamtee akka malee dhiphachaa jirti; na maari!” jette.
And behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same territories, and cried to him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, [thou] son of David; my daughter is grievously afflicted with a demon.
23 Yesuus garuu deebii tokko illee hin kennineef. Barattoonni isaas gara isaa dhufanii, “Kunoo isheen iyyaa nu faana deemtiitii achi deebisi” jedhanii isa kadhatan.
But he answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her away; for she crieth after us.
24 Inni immoo, “Ani hoolota mana Israaʼel kanneen badan sana qofaafan ergame” jedhee deebise.
But he answered and said, I am not sent but to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
25 Dubartiin sunis dhuftee sagaddeefii, “Yaa Gooftaa na gargaari!” jette.
Then came she and worshiped him, saying, Lord, help me.
26 Innis, “Buddeena ijoollee fuudhanii saroota dura buusuun sirrii miti” jedhee deebise.
But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast [it] to dogs.
27 Isheenis, “Eeyyee yaa Gooftaa, saroonni iyyuu hambaa maaddii gooftota isaanii irraa harcaʼu nyaatu” jettee deebifteef.
And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crums which fall from their master's table.
28 Yesuusis, “Dubartii nana, amantiin kee guddaa dha! Akkuma fedhii keetii siif haa taʼu” jedhee deebise. Intalli ishees saʼaatiidhuma sana fayyite.
Then Jesus answered and said to her, O woman, great [is] thy faith: be it to thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was healed from that very hour.
29 Yesuus achii kaʼee gara Galaana Galiilaa dhaqe. Gaarattis ol baʼee taaʼe.
And Jesus departed from thence, and came nigh to the sea of Galilee; and ascended a mountain, and sat down there.
30 Namoonni hedduunis warra okkolan, warra jaaman, warra naafatan, warra arrabni isaanii dubbachuu didee fi kanneen biraa hedduu fidanii miilla Yesuus jala kaaʼan; innis isaan fayyise.
And great multitudes came to him, having with them [those that were] lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus' feet; and he healed them:
31 Namoonni sunis yommuu akka warri arrabni hin dubbanne dubbatan, warri naafatan fayyan, warri okkolan deeman, warra jaamaniif immoo akka iji isaanii baname arganitti ni dinqifatan. Waaqa Israaʼeliifis ulfina kennan.
So that the multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb to speak, the maimed to be whole, the lame to walk, and the blind to see: and they glorified the God of Israel.
32 Yesuus barattoota isaa ofitti waamee, “Ani namoota kanneeniif garaa nan laafa; isaan guyyaa sadii na bira turan; waan nyaatan tokko illee hin qaban. Akka isaan karaa irratti hin gaggabneefis ani agabuu isaanii gad isaan dhiisuu hin barbaadu” jedhe.
Then Jesus called his disciples [to him], and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days, and have nothing to eat: and I will not send them away fasting, lest they faint in the way.
33 Barattoonni isaas deebisanii, “Buddeena tuuta guddaa akkanaa gaʼu gammoojjii kana keessatti eessaa argachuu dandeenya?” jedhan.
And his disciples say to him, Whence should we have so much bread in the wilderness, as to satisfy so great a multitude?
34 Yesuus immoo, “Isin buddeena meeqa qabdu?” jedhee gaafate. Isaanis deebisanii, “Buddeena torbaa fi qurxummii xixinnoo muraasa qabna” jedhan.
And Jesus saith to them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few little fishes.
35 Innis akka namoonni sun lafa tataaʼan itti hime.
And he commanded the multitude to sit on the ground.
36 Ergasii buddeena torbanii fi qurxummii sana fuudhee erga galateeffatee booddee kukkutee barattootatti kenne; isaanis namootaaf kennan.
And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks, and broke [them], and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.
37 Isaan hundi nyaatanii quufan. Ergasiis barattoonni hambaa gundoo torba guutuu walitti qaban.
And they all ate and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that were left seven baskets full.
38 Baayʼinni warra nyaataniis ijoollee fi dubartoota malee dhiira kuma afur ture.
And they that had eaten were four thousand men, besides women and children.
39 Yesuus erga tuuta sana of irraa geggeessee booddee bidiruu yaabbatee naannoo Magadaan dhaqe.
And he sent away the multitude, and took a boat, and came into the borders of Magdala.
