< Mathayo 14 >

1 Husala ezyo, Uherode ahevwezye ihabari ya Yesu.
At that time, Herod the tetrarch heard the report concerning Jesus,
2 Abhawozya ahoyi bhakwe, “Ono yu Yohana Umozyaji azyoshele afume whazimu. Eshi engovo ezyo zili hukwakwe.”
and said to his servants, “This is John the Baptiser. He is risen from the dead. That is why these powers work in him.”
3 Afwatanaje u Herode ali anemile u Yohana apinya na hutaje mwijela husababu ya Herodia, oshe wa Filipo okolo wakwe.
For Herod had arrested John, bound him, and put him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife.
4 Afwatanaje u Yohana amozezye, “Sagashinza ahumweje umwene abhe shee wakwe.”
For John said to him, “It is not lawful for you to have her.”
5 U Herode andiagojile ila ahogope abhantu husababu bhanolile u Yohana aje kuwe.
When he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.
6 Ila isala ninsiku zya papwe u Herode lwazyafiha umwale wa Herode ahanjile pakasi ya bhantu nahasongwezye u Herode.
But when Herod’s birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced amongst them and pleased Herod.
7 Katika ajibu shila shasobhe zezye hundapo aje anzahupele shoshonti shanzalabhe.
Therefore he promised with an oath to give her whatever she should ask.
8 Baada yashauliwe nu maye wakwe, ayanjile, “Mpele ane epa pikombe itwe lya Yohana Umozi.”
She, being prompted by her mother, said, “Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptiser.”
9 Umwene ali na masikitiho humalawo gamwale, ila kwa ajili yindapo zyakwe, afwatanaje wonti bhabhaleho pashalye pamo numwene ayanjile aje lifanyishe.
The king was grieved, but for the sake of his oaths and of those who sat at the table with him, he commanded it to be given,
10 Atumile u Yohana aletwe afume whigeleza,
and he sent and beheaded John in the prison.
11 ili atemwe itwe lyakwe na litemwe pamwanya yisinia na apewe umwale na alitwale whamaye wakwe.
His head was brought on a platter and given to the young lady; and she brought it to her mother.
12 Tena abhanafunzi bhakwe bhenza awheje gula ombele na syele, baada yeli bhabhalile humozye u Yesu.
His disciples came, took the body, and buried it. Then they went and told Jesus.
13 Nape Uyesu lwahevwa ega, ajitenga afume isehemu ela azubha mukasi yimashua abhala esehemu yijitenjile. Umuda empoga lwayanya whali, bhafwatile lwimanama afume humijini.
Now when Jesus heard this, he withdrew from there in a boat to a deserted place apart. When the multitudes heard it, they followed him on foot from the cities.
14 Tena u Yesu ahenzele whilongolela lyawo alola empoga ingosi. Abhalolela enkombo na hubhaponyle impongo zyawo.
Jesus went out, and he saw a great multitude. He had compassion on them and healed their sick.
15 Ishalyabhela yakamiliha, abhanafunzi bhahenza hukwakwe na yanje, “Ene sehemu yijangwa ni siku tayari lishilile. Bhatabhanye amakutano ili bhabhale muvijiji ni bhakale ishalye kwa ajili yawo.
When evening had come, his disciples came to him, saying, “This place is deserted, and the hour is already late. Send the multitudes away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves food.”
16 Ila Yesu ayanjile, “Sagabhali ni haja yabhalebhewo. Bhapeli amwe ishalye”
But Jesus said to them, “They don’t need to go away. You give them something to eat.”
17 Bhamozya, “Epa tilinago amabumunda gasanu neswe zebhele tu.”'
They told him, “We only have here five loaves and two fish.”
18 U Yesu ayanga, “Galeti huline.”
He said, “Bring them here to me.”
19 Tena u Yesu ayiwozya empoga akhale pansi yimasole. Ayega amabumunda gasanu neswe zebhele. Ayenya humwanya, asaya nabudulanye amabumunda abhapela abhanafunzi. Abhanafunzi bhayipela empoga.
He commanded the multitudes to sit down on the grass; and he took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, broke and gave the loaves to the disciples; and the disciples gave to the multitudes.
20 Bhalya wonti bhihuta. Tena bhavikusanya ivipande vyonti vishalye nameme iviseje kumi navibhele.
They all ate and were filled. They took up twelve baskets full of that which remained left over from the broken pieces.
21 Bhala bhabhaliye bhabhakadiliya aje abhalume elfu zisanu bila yabhazye abhashe na bhana.
Those who ate were about five thousand men, in addition to women and children.
22 Mara heka abhawozya abhanafunzi bhinjile mukasi yimashuwa, isala ezyo umwene abhalaga empoga bhabhaje bhewo.
Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go ahead of him to the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.
23 Lwabhalaga empoga bhabhala bhene, azubha pamwanya yigamba apute mwene. Isala lwayali yilyabhela alihoho mwene.
After he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into the mountain by himself to pray. When evening had come, he was there alone.
24 Ila eshi imashua lwayali pahati yibahari yayumbaga husababu yimawimbi kwani inkongu yali yimpisho.
But the boat was now in the middle of the sea, distressed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.
25 Katika uusiku wi zamu ya nne u Yesu abhasojeleye ajenda pamwanya yemenze.
In the fourth watch of the night, Jesus came to them, walking on the sea.
26 Isala abhanafunzi bhakwe lwabhanola ajenda pamwanya yi bahari, bhahogope nayanje, “Yuzimu ka,” na zuvye isauti katika ihali yiwoga.
When the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, “It’s a ghost!” and they cried out for fear.
27 U Yesu abhawozya heka, ayanga, “Jipelaji umoyo! Nene! mugajihogope.”
But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, “Cheer up! It is I! Don’t be afraid.”
28 U Petro anjibu whayanje, “Gosi, nkesho wewe, mbozye enenze huliwe pamwanya yimenze.”
Peter answered him and said, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the waters.”
29 U Yesu ayanga, “Enza.” Esho Upetro afuma mukasi yimashua na ajenda pamwanya yimenze abhale wha Yesu.
He said, “Come!” Peter stepped down from the boat and walked on the waters to come to Jesus.
30 Ila u Petro lwalola amawimbi, ahogope, na whande adwine, pansi, akwizya husauti nayanje, “Gosi, nokole!”
But when he saw that the wind was strong, he was afraid, and beginning to sink, he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!”
31 Digana Yesu anyosya inyobhe yakwe amosya u Petro, na humozye, “Awe wilweteho udodo, yenu ulinamashaka?”
Immediately Jesus stretched out his hand, took hold of him, and said to him, “You of little faith, why did you doubt?”
32 Epo u Yesu nu Petro bhahinjiye mumashua, inkongu yaleshile avugule.
When they got up into the boat, the wind ceased.
33 Abhanafunzi mmashua bhansayile u Yesu na yanje, “Lyoli awe wamwana wa Ngolobhi.”
Those who were in the boat came and worshipped him, saying, “You are truly the Son of God!”
34 Na lwabhafwemela, bhafishile panse yi Genesareti.
When they had crossed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret.
35 Na bhantu bhi sehemu ela lwabhamanya u Yesu, bhatumile uujumbe kila sehemu zipembeni nahunete kila wabhinile.
When the people of that place recognised him, they sent into all that surrounding region and brought to him all who were sick;
36 Bhamozezye aje bhawezye aguse ikunjo limwenda gwakwe, na bhinji bhabhagubile bhaponilwe.
and they begged him that they might just touch the fringe of his garment. As many as touched it were made whole.
