Mariku 1
1 Shisoweru Shiwagira ashi sha Yesu Kristu, Mwana gwa Mlungu.
Here is the beginning of the good news about Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
2 Yankuyanja gambira Isaya mbuyi gwa Mlungu ntambu yakalembiti, “Mlungu kalongiti, ‘Guloli numtuma ntumintumi gwangu hakakulonguleri Hakakunywawili njira yaku.’
Just as the prophet Isaiah wrote, “I'm sending my messenger ahead of you to prepare your way.
3 Liziwu lya muntu lipikanika kushiwala, ‘Mumtenderi kala Mtuwa njira yakuwi, mumnyawili weri njira zyakuwi!’”
A voice is calling in the desert, ‘Prepare the Lord's way! Make his paths straight.’”
4 Yohani kalawiriti kushiwala, kawabwelera wantu na kuwabatiza, pakawagambira, “Mleki vidoda vyenu na mbatizwi na Mlungu hakawalekiziyi vidoda vyenu.”
John came, baptizing in the desert, announcing a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.
5 Wantu wavuwa wamgenderiti Yohani, wantu yawalawiti Yerusalemu na Yudeya, walekiti vidoda vyawatenditi na yomberi kawabatiziti mulushemba lwa Yoridani.
Everybody from the country of Judea and from Jerusalem went to him. They admitted their sins publicly and were baptized in the Jordan River.
6 Yohani kavaliti nguwu yayinyawitwi kwa mibaira ya nkanyama ngamiya, mushunu kalitawiti lugoyi lwa lukuli na shiboga shakuwi shiweriti lwashi na wanjombi.
John wore clothes made of camel hair, with a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey.
7 Yohani kabweriti pakalonga, “Pa neni kankwiza muntu mkulu kuliku neni. Neni nfaa ndiri ata kuyopola lugoyi lwa vilwatu vyakuwi.
This is what he had to say: “After me someone is coming who is greater than I am. I'm not worthy to bend down and untie his sandals.
8 Neni nukubatizani kwa mashi, kumbiti yomberi hakawabatizani kwa Rohu Mnanagala.”
I baptized you in water but he will baptize you in the Holy Spirit.”
9 Mashaka galii Yesu kiziti kulawa Nazareti lushi lwa Galilaya na kabatiziwitwi na Yohani mulushemba lwa Yoridani.
Then Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan River.
10 Pala palii Yesu pakalawiti mumashi, kawona kumpindi kwa Mlungu kuvuguka na Rohu Mnanagala kamkangalira gambira ng'unda.
As Jesus came out of the water, he saw the heavens split apart and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him.
11 Na liziwu lilawira kumpindi kwa Mlungu, lilonga, “Gwenga gwa Mwana gwangu yanukufira, gunfiriziya.”
A voice from heaven said, “You are my son, the one I love. I am very pleased with you.”
12 Pala palii Rohu Mnanagala kamlonguziyiti Yesu kushiwala.
Right after this the Spirit sent him away into the desert
13 Su kaweriti kushiwala aku mashaka malongu msheshi, pakajeresiwa na Shetani. Kalikaliti aku pamuhera na wankanyama wa kuntundu na wantumintumi wa kumpindi wamtenderiti.
where he was tempted by Satan for forty days. He was with the wild animals, and angels took care of him.
14 Yohani pawamtatiriti kala mushibetubetu, Yesu kagenditi lushi lwa Galilaya, kulii kanjiti kubwera Shisoweru Shiwagira sha Mlungu,
Later, after John was arrested, Jesus went to Galilee, announcing God's good news.
15 pakalonga, “Shipindi shiza! Ufalumi wa Mlungu wapakwegera. Mleki vidoda vyamtenda na mushijimiri Shisoweru Shiwagira!”
“The time predicted has come,” he said. “God's kingdom has arrived! Repent and believe in the good news.”
16 Yesu kaweriti kankupita mumpeku mwa litanda lya Galilaya, kamwona Simoni na Andereya mlongu gwakuwi, womberi waweriti wankulowa wasomba.
As he was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, Jesus saw Simon and his brother Andrew throwing a net into the water, for they made their living by fishing.
17 Yesu kawagambira, “Munfati neni, hanuwafundi mwenga muweri walowa wantu.”
“Come and follow me,” he told them, “and I will have you fishing for people.”
18 Pala palii wazileka nyavu zyawu na wamfata.
They left their nets at once and followed him.
19 Yesu pakagenditi palongolu padidini, kawawoniti Yakobu na Yohani wana wa Zebedayu walivagiti mumtumbwi wankunyawa nyavu zyawu.
He went a little farther and saw James and his brother John, the sons of Zebedee. They were in a boat mending their nets.
20 Pala palii Yesu kawashema wamfati, womberi wamleka Zebedayu tati gwawu pamuhera na wantumintumi wakuwi mumtumbwi.
Immediately he called them to follow him, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired workers, and followed Jesus.
21 Yesu na wantumintumi wakuwi wagenditi lushi lwa Kafarinaumu, palifikiti Lishaka lya Kwoyera Yesu kagenditi munumba ya Mlungu na kanja kufunda.
They left for Capernaum, and on Sabbath Jesus went into the synagogue and taught there.
22 Wantu yawampikaniriti Yesu walikangashiti nentu ntambu yakafunditi, toziya kafunditi ndiri gambira wafunda wawu wa Malagaliru ga Musa, kumbiti kafunditi gambira muntu yakawera na uwezu.
The people were amazed at his teaching, for he spoke with authority, unlike the religious teachers.
23 Shipindi shilaa shilii kuweriti na muntu yakaweriti na washamshera Munumba ya Mlungu, yomberi kabotanga,
Suddenly, right there in the synagogue, a man with an evil spirit started shouting out,
24 “Yesu gwa Nazareti, gwana shishi na twenga? Shagwizira gutwagamiziyi? Neni nukumana kala kuwera gwenga gwa gaa, gwenga gwa Mnanagala gwa Mlungu.”
“Jesus of Nazareth, why are you bothering us? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are! You're God's Holy One!”
25 Yesu kamkalipira shamshera ulii, “Umatu, gumwuki muntu ayu.”
Jesus interrupted the evil spirit, telling him, “Be quiet! Come out of him.”
26 Shamshera kambegeziya nentu muntu ulii pakabotanga, shakapanu kamlekeziya.
The evil spirit screamed, threw the man into convulsions, and came out of him.
27 Wantu woseri walikangashiti nentu na wanjiti kulikosiya, “Shishi ashi? Aga mafundu ga syayi yagawera na uwezu! Muntu ayu kawera na makakala ga kuwawinga washamshera na womberi wamjimira!”
Everyone was amazed at what happened. “What is this?” they asked each other. “What is this new teaching that has such authority? Even evil spirits do what he tells them!”
28 Su visoweru vyakatenditi Yesu vipikinirika kanongola koseri mumkowa gwa Galilaya.
News about him spread quickly throughout the whole region of Galilee.
29 Palaa palii pawalawiti Munumba ya Mlungu, womberi wagenditi pamuhera na Yakobu na Yohani mpaka ukaya kwa Simoni na Andereya.
Then they left the synagogue and went to the home of Simon and Andrew, along with James and John.
30 Pawasokiti palii, womberi wamgambiriti Yesu kuwera mikamwana gwa Simoni kapyupa kagonja mushitanda.
Simon's mother-in-law was sick in bed with a fever, so they told Jesus about her.
31 Su Yesu kamgendera mlweri, kamkola liwoku na kumgolosiya, mawu ulii kawera mkomu na kanja kuwatelekera.
He went to her, took her by the hand, and helped her up. The fever immediately left her. Then she made them a meal.
32 Pamihi mshenji paguzyetiti, wantu wamjegera Yesu walweli woseri na walii yawaweriti na washamshera.
After sunset that evening, those who were sick and demon-possessed were brought to Jesus.
33 Wantu woseri wa lushi lulii wajojinikiti paluwaga lwa numba.
The whole of the town gathered outside.
34 Yesu kawaponiziyiti wantu wavuwa yawaweriti na malweri ga kila ntambu. Viraa kawawingiti washamshera, kafiriti ndiri washamshera watakuli shintu shoseri toziya waweriti wankumumana.
He healed many people who had various diseases, and threw out many demons. He did not permit the demons to speak, for they knew who he was.
35 Shilawu yakuwi ligonugonu, Yesu kalawa kunja kwa lushi na kagenditi pahala pa gweka kumluwa Mlungu.
Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up and went alone to a quiet place to pray.
36 Kumbiti Simoni na wayaguwi wagenditi kumsakula.
Simon and the others went to search for him.
37 Na pawamwoniti kala wamgambira, “Kila muntu kankukusakula!”
When they found him, they told him, “Everybody's looking for you.”
38 Kumbiti Yesu kawankula, “Tugendeni pahala pamonga pa lushi zyaziwera pakwegera, su neni nwezi kubwera aku viraa toziya ashi ndo shashinjegiti kushitenda.”
But Jesus replied, “We have to go to the other towns around here so that I can tell them the good news as well—for that's why I came.”
39 Su yomberi kagenda Mugalilaya kwoseri pakabwera mnumba za Mlungu na kuwawinga washamshera.
So he went all over Galilee, speaking in the synagogues and expelling demons.
40 Mungumbula yumu kamgenderiti Yesu kasuntumala na kamluwa, “Pagufira gumweni gumpungi neni.”
A leper came to him asking for help. The man kneeled down before Jesus, saying, “Please, if you're willing, you can heal me!”
41 Yesu kamwonera lusungu nentu, kamkola liwoku kalonga, “Neni nfira, gupungwi.”
With compassion Jesus reached out and touched the man, and said, “I am willing. Be healed!”
42 Palaa palii Muntu ungumbula umlekeziya.
The leprosy left him immediately, and he was healed.
43 Shakapanu Yesu kambereziya muntu ulii, kamlekeziya kagendi zyakuwi
Jesus sent him away with a strong warning.
44 pakamgambira, “Nagumgambira muntu yoseri visoweru avi, kumbiti gugendi gwakaliranguziyi kwa mtambika gwa Numba ya Mlungu na gulaviyi malaviwu kwajili ya kupungwa kwaku gambira Musa ntambu yakalagaliriti kuwera ukapitawu kwa woseri kuwera guponiziwa.”
“Make sure you don't tell anybody anything about this,” he told him. “Go to the priest and show yourself to him. Give the offering which is required by the law of Moses for such cleansing, so that people will have proof.”
45 Kumbiti muntu ulii kagenda kanja kubwera visoweru vya kuponiziwa kwakuwi kwa kila yakamwona. Su Yesu kasinda kuliyonisiya mulushi lulii, yomberi kalikaliti pahala pa gweka. Pamuhera na hangu wantu waweriti wankumgendera yomberi kulawa wega zoseri.
But the healed leper went out and told everyone what had happened. As a result Jesus could not openly go into the cities anymore, but had to stay out in the country where people came to him from everywhere around.
