Mariku 7
1 Mafalisayu wamu na wafunda wa Malagaliru wawaweriti wankulawa Yerusalemu walivaga pawamzyengeta Yesu.
Now the Pharisees, and some scribes who came from Jerusalem, resorted to Jesus.
2 Wawona wafundwa wamu wa Yesu wankuliya shiboga kwa mawoku mahumba, yani wagulula ndiri mawoku gawu ntambu ya ifiruwiti.
And observing some of his disciples eating with impure hands, that is, unwashed hands;
3 Toziya Mafalisayu na Wayawudi woseri waliya ndiri shiboga mpaka wagululi mawoku gawu ntambu ya wamaniti, wakoliti shitiba sha wazewi wau.
(for the Pharisees, and indeed all the Jews who observed the tradition of the elders, eat not until they have have washed their hands by pouring a little water upon them:
4 Pawalawa mumasoku waliya ndiri shintu shoseri mpaka washigululi huti ntambu ya wavimani. Vira vilii wakoliti vitiba vimonga, gambira vilii kugulula lutekeru, viwiga na vyombu vya shaba.
and if they be come from the market, by dipping them; and many other usages there are, which they have adopted, as immersions of cups and pots, and brazen vessels and beds: )
5 Su Mafalisayu na wafunda wa Malagaliru wamkosiya Yesu, “Ntambu gaa wafundwa waku wakola ndiri vitiba vya wambuyi wawu, ira womberi waliya kwa mawoku mahumbu?”
then the Pharisees and Scribes asked him, Whence comes it that your disciples observe not the tradition of the elders, but eat with unwashed hands?
6 Yesu kawankula, “Isaya katungiti weri, mwenga mwawafyangu, gambira ntambu yakalembiti, ‘Wantu awa, wanjimira kwa visoweru hera, kumbiti mumyoyu mwau, wapatali na neni.
He answering, said to them, O hypocrites! well do you suit the character, which Isaiah gave of you, when he said, This people honor me with their lips; but their heart is estranged from me.
7 Kuntambikira kwawu kunfaa ndiri mana wafunda vitiba vya wantu hera gambira malagaliru ga Mlungu.’”
In vain, however, they worship me, while they teach institutions merely human."
8 “Mwenga mugaleka malagaliru ga Mlungu na kukola vitiba vyenu.”
For laying aside the commandment of God, you retain the traditions of men, immersions of pots and cups, and many other similar practices.
9 Yesu kendeleyiti kutakula, “Mwenga mulihola muherepa, kumbiti mugalema malagaliru ga Mlungu su muvikoli vitiba vyenu.
You judge well, continued he, in annulling the commandment of God, to make room for your traditions.
10 Mana Musa kamuiti, ‘Guwapanani ligoya tati gwaku na mawu gwaku.’ Kayi katakuliti ‘muntu yoseri yanakahigiranga tati ama mawu, muntu ayu hawamlagi.’
For Moses has said, "Honor your father and mother" and "Whosoever reviles father or mother, shall be punished with death."
11 Kumbiti mwenga mfunda, gambira muntu kana shintu sha kuwatanga tati ama mawu gwakuwi, kumbiti katakula shintu ashi ‘Kolibani’ yani mafupu kwa Mlungu,
But you maintain, if a man say to father or mother, "Be it corban (that is, devoted) whatever of mine shall profit you";
12 su mutakula kalazimika ndiri kuwatanga tati gwakuwi ama mawu gwakuwi.
he must not thenceforth do anything for his father or mother;
13 Su, kwa ntambu ayi mbeziya shisoweru sha Mlungu kwajili ya mafundu gamwankana. Kayi mtenda vitwatira vivuwa vya ntambu ayi.”
thus invalidating the word of God, by the tradition which you have established. And in many other instances you act thus.
14 Yesu kalishema kayi lipinga lilii lya wantu. Kawagambira, “Mpikiniri woseri, muvimani.
Then having called the whole multitude, he said to them, Hearken to me all of you, and be instructed.
15 Kwahera shintu shashimwingira muntu shashiweza kumtenda kaweri muhumba. Kumbiti shashimlawa muntu ashi ndo shashimtenda muntu kaweri muhumba.
There is nothing from without, which entering into the man, can pollute him; but the things which proceed from within the man, are the things that pollute him.
16 Muntu pakana makutu, kapikaniri.”
If any man has ears to hear, let him hear.
17 Pakalilekiti lipinga lya wantu na kwingira mnumba, wafundwa wakuwi wamkosiya mana ya mfanu wakatakuliti.
When he had withdrawn from the people into a house, his disciples asked him the meaning of that sentence.
18 Yesu kawagambira, “Hashi, ata mwenga mwelewa ndiri? Hashi muvimana ndiri handa shintu shashimwingira muntu kulawa kunja, shimtenda ndiri muntu kaweri muhumba,
He answered, Are you also void of understanding? Do you not perceive, that whatsoever from without enters into the man, can not pollute him;
19 Toziya shimwingira ndiri mumoyu, kumbiti shingira mumtima, shakapanu shilawa kunja munshimba?” Kwa kutakula hangu, Yesu kavipungiti viboga vyoseri.
because it enters not into his heart, but into his stomach, whence all impurities in the victuals pass into the sink.
20 Kendereyiti kulonga, “Shashilawa munshimba mwamuntu ndo shimtenda kaweri muhumba.
But, added he, that which proceeds out of the man, is what pollutes the man:
21 Toziya mumoyu mwa muntu mulawa maholu madoda na kumbinta na shimpegu na ulagaji shakapanu
for from within the human heart proceed vicious machinations, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts,
22 uhumba na lwaliya na vidoda na upyotu na utindira na weya na mayigilangu na shinika na lipungasesi.
insatiable desires, malevolence, fraud, immodesty, envy, calumny, arrogance, levity.
23 Madoda aga goseri galawa munshimba mwa muntu, ndo hagamtendi muntu kaweri muhumba.”
All these evils issue from within, and pollute the man.
24 Yesu kawuka paliya, kagenda mulushi lwa Tiru. Aku kingira mnumba na kafiriti ndiri muntu yoseri kavimani, kumbiti kaweziti ndiri kulififa.
Then he arose, and went to the frontiers of Tyre and Sidon; and having entered a house, he desired that none might know of him; but he could not be concealed.
25 Paniti mdala yumu mweni muhinga gwakuwi kaweriti na shamshera, kapikaniriti visoweru vya Yesu. Palaa paliya kiza kamsuntamalira pamagulu pakuwi.
For a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, hearing of him, came and threw herself at his feet,
26 Mdala ayu kaweriti Mgiriki, mwenikaya gwa Silofainiki. Su kamluwa Yesu kamlavii muhinga gwakuwi shamshera kadoda.
(the woman was a Greek, a native of Syrophenicia, ) and entreated him that he would cast the demon out of her daughter.
27 Yesu kamgambira, “Guleki huti wana wikuti. Kwa mana iherepa ndiri kutola shiboga sha wana na kuwasila wang'ang'a.”
Jesus answered, Let the children first be satisfied; for it is not seemly to take the children bread, and throw it to the dogs.
28 Kumbiti mdala uliya kamwankula, “Nyina Mtuwa, kumbiti ata wang'ang'a wapasi pameza waliya shiboga shawalekiti wana!”
She replied, True, Sir; yet even the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.
29 Yesu kamgambira, “Toziya ya shisoweru ashi shagulongiti, gugendi ukaya, haguwoni shamshera kamlawa muhinga gwaku!”
He said to her, For this answer go home; the demon is gone out of your daughter.
30 Su kagenda ukaya kwakuwi, kamwona mwana kagonja mshitanda na shamshera kamlawiti kala.
Immediately she went home, and found her daughter lying upon the bed, and freed from the demon.
31 Shakapanu Yesu kawuka mulushi lwa Tiru, kapitira Sidoni, kasoka litanda Galilaya kwa kupitira mukowa lushi lilongu.
Then leaving the borders of Tyre and Sidon, he returned to the sea of Galilee, through the precincts of Decapolis.
32 Su wamjegera muntu kana majogu viraa ka bubu, wamluwa kamtulili mawoku.
And they brought to him a deaf man, who had also an impediment in his speech, and entreated him to lay his hand upon him.
33 Yesu kamtura kutali na wantu. Katula vyala vyakuwi mmakutu mwa muntu uliya. Katema mata na kumshinkula lulimi.
Jesus having taken him aside from the crowd, spit upon his own fingers, and put them into the man's ears, and touched his tongue.
34 Shakapanu kalola kumpindi kwa Mlungu, kapumula na kumgambira, “Efata,” mana yakuwi, “Guvuguki!”
Then looking up to heaven, and sighing, he said, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.
35 Mala makutu gakuwi gavuguka na lulimi lwakuwi luyoposoka, kanja kutakula nweri.
Immediately his ears were opened, and his tongue loosed, and he spoke distinctly.
36 Yesu kawabeliziya nawamgambiziya muntu yoseri vitwatira avi. Kumbiti ntambu yakawabeleriti, ndo ntambu yawendereyiti kubwera shisoweru ashi.
He charged them to tell no person: but the more he charged them, the more they published it,
37 Wantu walikangasha nentu. Watakula, “Katenda vyoseri viheri, kawatenda wanamajogu kupikinira na bubu kutakula!”
saying with inexpressible amazement, He does everything well: he makes both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.
