Matayu 14
1 Shipindi shilii mkulu gwa Galilaya Herodi kapikaniriti visoweru vya Yesu.
At that time did Herod the tetrarch hear the fame of Jesus,
2 Nakaka ndo Yohani Mbatiza, ayu kazyuka kulawa kwa wahowiti, “kawagambira maafisa, ayi ndo toziya kana likakala lwa kutenda mauzauza.”
and said to his servants, 'This is John the Baptist, he did rise from the dead, and because of this the mighty energies are working in him.'
3 Herodi ndo yakalagaliriti kuwera Yohani wamkamuli, wamtawi pingu na kumtula mushibetubetu. Katenditi hangu toziya ya Herodiya mdala gwa Filipi mlongu gwakuwi.
For Herod having laid hold on John, did bind him, and did put him in prison, because of Herodias his brother Philip's wife,
4 Toziya Yohani Mbatiza kaweriti kankumgambira Herodi, “Iherepa ndiri gwenga kumyuga Herodiya!”
for John was saying to him, 'It is not lawful to thee to have her,'
5 Herodi kafiriti kumlaga Yohani Mbatiza, kumbiti katiliti wantu wa Shiyawudi toziya Yohani Mbatiza womberi wamwoniti kuwera mbuyi gwa Mlungu.
and, willing to kill him, he feared the multitude, because as a prophet they were holding him.
6 Mumsambu gwa kulihola kwiwuka kwa Herodi, muhinga gwa Herodiya, kaviniti kulongolu kwa wahenga woseri. Herodi kanemeleriti nentu
But the birthday of Herod being kept, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst, and did please Herod,
7 su kamgambiriti, “Nulirapi, hanukupi shoseri shagunduwa!”
whereupon with an oath he professed to give her whatever she might ask.
8 Mawu gwa muhinga ulii kamhimiziyiti muhinga gwakuwi kamgambiri tati gwakuwi kulonga, “Gunupi palaa panu muluseru mtuwi gwa Yohani Mbatiza!”
And she having been instigated by her mother — 'Give me (says she) here upon a plate the head of John the Baptist;
9 Ata hangu mfalumi kahinginikiti, kumbiti toziya ya kulirapilira kwakuwi kulongolu kwa wahenga, kalagaliriti wamupi mtuwi muhinga ulii.
and the king was grieved, but because of the oaths and of those reclining with him, he commanded [it] to be given;
10 Su kalagalira Yohani kadumulwi mtuwi mushibetubetu.
and having sent, he beheaded John in the prison,
11 Mtuwi gwa Yohani wagujega muluseru na kumupa muhinga ulii, nayomberi kagujega kwa mawu gwakuwi.
and his head was brought upon a plate, and was given to the damsel, and she brought [it] nigh to her mother.
12 Wafundwa wa Yohani wiza, wayitoliti nshimba ya Yohani na kuyisira, shakapanu wagenditi kwa Yesu na kumgambira.
And his disciples having come, took up the body, and buried it, and having come, they told Jesus,
13 Yesu pakapikaniriti shisoweru kuusu Yohani, kawukiti pahala palii mumtumbwi na kagenditi pahala pa gweka. Wantu wapikiniriti aga, wamgendera Yesu kulawa lushi zyawu na wamfata kwa magulu.
and Jesus having heard, withdrew thence in a boat to a desolate place by himself, and the multitudes having heard did follow him on land from the cities.
14 Yesu pakasulukiti kulawa mumtumbwi na pakaliwoniti lipinga likulu lya wantu, Kawawoneriti lusungu na kawaponiziyiti woseri yawaweriti walwala.
And Jesus having come forth, saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion upon them, and did heal their infirm;
15 Pamihi, wafundwa wakuwi wamgendereti Yesu na walonga, “Saa zigenda kala na pahala panu pagweka. Guwalekeziyi wantu wagendi zawu naguwaleki wagendi muvijiji wakahemeri viboga.”
and evening having come, his disciples came to him, saying, 'The place is desolate, and the hour hath now past, let away the multitudes that, having gone to the villages, they may buy to themselves food.'
16 Yesu kawagambira, “Hapeni wawuki, mwenga muwayupi vintu vya kuliya!”
And Jesus said to them, 'They have no need to go away — give ye them to eat.'
17 Womberi wamwankula, “Twana mabumunda muhanu na wasomba wawili hera.”
And they say to him, 'We have not here except five loaves, and two fishes.'
18 Yesu kalonga, “Su munjegeli panu.”
And he said, 'Bring ye them to me hither.'
19 Kawagambira wantu walivagi pasi mumihamba, shakapanu katola mabumunda muhanu na wasomba wawili, kalola kumpindi kwa Mlungu, kalonga mayagashii Mlungu. Kagamega mabumunda na kawapanana wafundwa wakuwi na wafundwa wawapanani wantu.
And having commanded the multitudes to recline upon the grass, and having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to the heaven, he did bless, and having broken, he gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes,
20 Kila muntu kaliya na kwikuta. Shakapanu wafundwa wajojinira majamanda lilongu na mbili ga vyavisigaliti.
and they did all eat, and were filled, and they took up what was over of the broken pieces twelve hand-baskets full;
21 Kwa wantu woseri yawaliyiti, wapalu hera waweriti elufu muhanu pota kuwawalanga wadala na wana.
and those eating were about five thousand men, apart from women and children.
22 Pala palii Yesu kawagambira wafundwa wakuwi wakweni mumtumbwi na wamlongoleri kuloka kumwambu kulitanda, shipindi yomberi kankuwaaga wantu.
And immediately Jesus constrained his disciples to go into the boat, and to go before him to the other side, till he might let away the multitudes;
23 Pakawaagiti kala, mweni kakweniti kulugongu kugenda kumluwa Mlungu. Payisokiti pamihi, Yesu kaweriti gweka yakuwi kulii,
and having let away the multitudes, he went up to the mountain by himself to pray, and evening having come, he was there alone,
24 na shipindi ashi mtumbwi guweriti kala patali pa litanda, guweriti gugenda usegausega toziya lihega liweriti lyankuguyumbisiya.
and the boat was now in the midst of the sea, distressed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.
25 Payiweriti luhunjuhunju Yesu kawagendiriti wafundwa wakuwi, pakagendagenda pampindi pamashi.
And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went away to them, walking upon the sea,
26 Wafundwa wakuwi pawamwoniti pakagendagenda pampindi pamashi, watiliti nentu. Womberi washowangana pawalonga, “Shihoka ayu!”
and the disciples having seen him walking upon the sea, were troubled saying — 'It is an apparition,' and from the fear they cried out;
27 Pala palii Yesu kawagambira womberi, “Namtira, ndo neni!”
and immediately Jesus spake to them, saying, 'Be of good courage, I am [he], be not afraid.'
28 Shakapanu Peteru katakula, “Mtuwa, handa nakaka ndo gwenga gung'ambiri neni nizi kwa gwenga pamashi.”
And Peter answering him said, 'Sir, if it is thou, bid me come to thee upon the waters;'
29 Yesu kamgambira, “Gwizi!” Su Peteru kasuluka kulawa mumtumbwi na kamgendera Yesu pakagendagenda pampindi pamashi.
and he said, 'Come;' and having gone down from the boat, Peter walked upon the waters to come unto Jesus,
30 Kumbiti pakawoniti liyega, kaweriti na lyoga su kanjiti kudidimila mumashi. Shakapanu kalila pakalonga, “Mtuwa! Gumponiziyi.”
but seeing the wind vehement, he was afraid, and having begun to sink, he cried out, saying, 'Sir, save me.'
31 Palaa palii Yesu kalitalipisiya liwoku lyakuwi kamkola na kumgambira, “Ntambu yaguhera njimiru! Iwera hashi gwana lyoga?”
And immediately Jesus, having stretched forth the hand, laid hold of him, and saith to him, 'Little faith! for what didst thou waver?'
32 Woseri wakwena mumtumbwi, na liyega linyamalira.
and they having gone to the boat the wind lulled,
33 Shakapanu wafundwa mumtumbwi wamguwira Yesu pawalonga, “Nakaka gwenga gwa Mwana gwa Mlungu!”
and those in the boat having come, did bow to him, saying, 'Truly — God's Son art thou.'
34 Waloka litanda na kusoka lushi lwa Genezareti,
And having passed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret,
35 pahala wantu woseri wamumaniti Yesu. Su wawajega wantu yawalwala kulawa lushi zoseri za pakwegera na wamjegera Yesu.
and having recognized him, the men of that place sent forth to all that region round about, and they brought to him all who were ill,
36 Wamluwa kawajimiri woseri yawalwaliti wapati kushinkula luwiniku lwa nguwu yakuwi na woseri yawashinkuliti waweriti wakomu.
and were calling on him that they might only touch the fringe of his garment, and as many as did touch were saved.
