1 Mme erile morago ga malatsi a le mantsi a boela gape kwa Kaperanama, mme kutlwedi ya go tla ga gagwe ya tuma ka bofefo mo motseng otlhe.
And again he entered into Capharnaum after some days.
2 Ka bonako ntlo e o neng a le mo go yone e ne ya tlala baeng thata mo go neng go sena bonno le fa e le jwa motho a le esi, le fa e le kwa kgorong tota. Mme a ba rerela lefoko.
And it was heard that he was in the house, and many came together, so that there was no room; no, not even at the door; and he spoke to them the word.
3 Mme ya re a sa ntse a rera, banna ba le bane, ba goroga ba tshotse monna yo o suleng mhama a le mo lepareng.
And they came to him, bringing one sick of the palsy, who was carried by four.
4 Mme ba palelwa ke go tsena kwa go Jesu ka ntlha ya bontsi jwa batho, hong ba rutlolola ntlo go lebagana le tlhogo ya gagwe, mme ba folosa molwetsi ka lepara, go lebagana sentle le fa pele ga ga Jesu.
And when they could not offer him unto him for the multitude, they uncovered the roof where he was; and opening it, they let down the bed wherein the man sick of the palsy lay.
5 Mme erile Jesu a bona kafa ba dumelang thata ka teng gore o tlaa thusa, Jesu a raya monna yo o lwalang a re, “Morwaaka, dibe tsa gago di itshwaretswe!”
And when Jesus had seen their faith, he saith to the sick of the palsy: Son, thy sins are forgiven thee.
6 Mme bangwe ba baeteledipele ba Sejuta ba ba neng ba ntse foo ba raana ba re,
And there were some of the scribes sitting there, and thinking in their hearts:
7 “Gatweng? Se ke tlhapatso! A o gopola gore ke Modimo? Gonne ke Modimo fela o o ka itshwarelang dibe.”
Why doth this man speak thus? he blasphemeth. Who can forgive sins, but God only?
8 Mme Jesu ka a ne a itsile ditlhaloganyo tsa bone a ba raya a re, “Ke eng fa se se lo tshwenya?
Which Jesus presently knowing in his spirit, that they so thought within themselves, saith to them: Why think you these things in your hearts?
9 A go thata go itshwarela dibe tsa gagwe go na le go mo fodisa?
Which is easier, to say to the sick of the palsy: Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say: Arise, take up thy bed, and walk?
10 Mme jalo ke tlaa lo supegetsa, gore Nna, motho yo o tswang legodimong, ke itshwaretse monna yo dibe.” Hong a retologela kwa monneng yo o suleng mhama a re, “O fodisitswe. Tsaya lepara la gago o ye gae!”
But that you may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy, )
I say to thee: Arise, take up thy bed, and go into thy house.
12 Mme monna a nanoga, a tsaya lepara a ralala batho ba ba neng ba mo lebeletse!
And immediately he arose; and taking up his bed, went his way in the sight of all; so that all wondered and glorified God, saying: We never saw the like.
13 Hong Jesu a ya gape kwa lotshitshing lwa lewatle mme a rerela boidiidi jwa batho jo bo neng bo mo dikaganyeditse.
And he went forth again to the sea side; and all the multitude came to him, and he taught them.
14 Erile fa Jesu a ntse a tsamaya fa lotshitshing a bona Lefi, morwa Alefo, a ntse fa go kgethisediwang teng. A mo raya a re, “Ntshala morago. O nne morutwa wa me.” Mme Lefi a nanoga a tsamaya nae.
And when he was passing by, he saw Levi the son of Alpheus sitting at the receipt of custom; and he saith to him: Follow me. And rising up, he followed him.
15 Mo bosigongjoo, Lefi a laletsa badiri-ka ene ba bakgethisi le baleofi ba bangwe ba ba tumileng go nna balalediwa ba gagwe ka nako ya dijo tsa maitseboa gore ba tle ba kopane le Jesu le barutwa ba gagwe, (go ne go na le batho ba le bantsi ba mofuta o, mo boidiiding jwa batho jo bo neng bo mo setse morago).
And it came to pass, that as he sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat down together with Jesus and his disciples. For they were many, who also followed him.
16 Mme erile fa baeteledipele bangwe ba tumelo ya Sejuta ba mmona a a ja le batho ba ba mekgwa e e maswe, ba raya barutwa ba gagwe ba re, “Ke eng fa a a ja le batho ba ba ntseng jaana?”
And the scribes and the Pharisees, seeing that he ate with publicans and sinners, said to his disiples: Why doth your master eat and drink with publicans and sinners?
17 Erile fa Jesu a utlwa se ba neng ba se bua, a ba raya a re, “Batho ba ba lwalang ke bone ba ba batlang ngaka, e seng ba ba itekanetseng! Ga ke a tla go sokolola basiami fa e se baleofi.”
Jesus hearing this, saith to them: They that are well have no need of a physician, but they that are sick. For I came not to call the just, but sinners.
18 Mme barutwa ba ga Johane le baeteledipele ba Sejuta e ne e tle e re ka nako tse dingwe ba ikitse dijo, ke gore, ba tlhoke go ja e le ntlha nngwe ya tumelo ya bone; ya re letsatsi lengwe ba tla kwa go Jesu ba mmotsa gore ke ka ntlha yang fa barutwa ba gagwe le bone ba sa ikitse dijo?
And the disiples of John and the Pharisees used to fast; and they come and say to him: Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast; but thy disciples do not fast?
19 Mme Jesu a ba araba a re, “A ditsala tsa monyadi di ka gana go ja mo moletlong wa nyalo, A di ka hutsafala fa a sa ntse a na le tsone?
And Jesus saith to them: Can the children of the marriage fast, as long as the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.
20 Mme letsatsi lengwe o tlaa tlosiwa mo go bone, mme ba tla hutsafala.
But the days will come when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them; and then they shall fast in those days.
21 “Mo godimo ga moo, go ikitsa dijo ke mongwe mokgwa wa bogologolo wa go dira dilo. Go tshwana le go bitia seaparo se segologolo ka letsela le lesha! Go ka diragala eng? Sedibo se ka garola mme sa dira gore leroba le nne maswe go gaisa pele.
No man seweth a piece of raw cloth to an old garment: otherwise the new piecing taketh away from the old, and there is made a greater rent.
22 Lo itse botoka gore go tshela mofine o mosha mo dinkgwaneng tse dikgologolo, di ka thubega. Mofine o ka tshologela kwa ntle mme dinkgwana di senyege. Mofine o mosha o tlhoka dinkgwana tse dintsha.”
And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: otherwise the wine will burst the bottles, and both the wine will be spilled, and the bottles will be lost. But new wine must be put into new bottles.
23 Ka nako nngwe go le Sabata Jesu le barutwa ba gagwe ba tsamaya mo masimong, barutwa ba ne ba roba diako tsa mabele ba a ja.
And it came to pass again, as the Lord walked through the corn fields on the sabbath, that his disciples began to go forward, and to pluck the ears of corn.
24 Bangwe ba baeteledipele ba tumelo ya Sejuta ba raya Jesu ba re, “Ga ba a tshwanela ba ka bo ba dira jalo! Go kgatlhanong le melao ya rona go roba mabele ka letsatsi la Sabata.”
And the Pharisees said to him: Behold, why do they on the sabbath day that which is not lawful?
25 Jesu a araba a re, “A ga lo ise lo ke lo utlwalele kaga Kgosi Dafide le bapati ba gagwe, ba ba neng ba tshwerwe ke tlala, mme a tsena mo tlung ya Modimo Abiathare e ne e le Moperesiti yo Mogolo ka nako eo--mme ba a ja senkgwe se se faphegileng se se neng se jewa ke baperesiti fela? Seo le sone se ne se le kgatlhanong le molao.
And he said to them: Have you never read what David did when he had need, and was hungry himself, and they that were with him?
How he went into the house of God, under Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the loaves of proposition, which was not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave to them who were with him?
27 Mme Sabata e ne e diretswe go solegela motho molemo, e seng motho go solegela Sabata molemo.
And he said to them: The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath.
28 Mme Nna, Mesia, ke na le nonofo ya go dira tshwetso ya se batho ba ka se dirang ka malatsi a Sabata!”
Therefore the Son of man is Lord of the sabbath also.
