Mareko 6
1 Mme ka bofefo morago ga moo a tloga mo kgaolong eo a boela le barutwa ba gagwe ba ya Nasaretha, motse wa ga gabo.
He went out from there. He came into his own country, and his disciples followed him.
2 Mme ka Sabata se se latelang a ya kwa Tempeleng go ya go ruta, mme batho ba gakgamalela botlhale jwa gagwe le dikgakgamatso tsa gagwe ka ntlha ya gore e ne e le motho fela yo o tshwanang le bone. Mme ba bua ba tenegile ba re, “Ga a botoka go na le rona. Ke mmetli fela, morwa Marea, mogoloa Jakobe le Josefe, Judase le Simone. Le bokgaitsadie re agile nabo.”
When the Sabbath had come, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many hearing him were astonished, saying, “Where did this man get these things?” and, “What is the wisdom that is given to this man, that such mighty works come about by his hands?
Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James, Joses, Judah, and Simon? Are not his sisters here with us?” So they were offended at him.
4 Hong Jesu a ba raya a re, “Moporofiti o tlotlwa gongwe le gongwe fela fa e se mo ga gabo le mo losikeng lwa gagwe le mo go ba ntlo ya gagwe.”
Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country, and among his own relatives, and in his own house.”
5 Mme ka ntlha ya go tlhoka go dumela ga bone a se ka a kgona go dira dikgakgamatso tse di tona mo go bone, fa e se fela go baya diatla mo baboboding ba se kae, a ba fodisa.
He could do no mighty work there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people and healed them.
6 Mme a gakgamalela go tlhoka tumelo ga bone. Hong a tswa a tsamaya mo metseng, a ruta.
He marveled because of their unbelief. He went around the villages teaching.
7 A bitsa barutwa ba gagwe ba ba lesome le bobedi a ba roma ka bobedi le bobedi, a ba neetse nonofo ya go kgoromeletsa ntle mewa e e maswe.
He called to himself the twelve, and began to send them out two by two; and he gave them authority over the unclean spirits.
8 A ba raya a re, ba se ka ba tsaya sepe fa e se dithobane tse ba tsamayang ka tsone (diikokotlelo) le fa e le dijo, le fa e le kgetsana le fa e le madi, le fa e le ditlhako kgotsa diaparo tse dingwe.
He commanded them that they should take nothing for their journey, except a staff only: no bread, no wallet, no money in their purse,
but to wear sandals, and not put on two tunics.
10 A ba raya a re, “Fa lo tsena mo motsing nnang mo lwapeng lo le longwe, se suteng fa lo leng teng go tsena ntlo le ntlwana fa lo sa ntse lo le mo motsing oo.
He said to them, “Wherever you enter into a house, stay there until you depart from there.
11 Fa e le gore ba motse ga ba lo amogele kgotsa ga ba lo reetse itlhotlhoreng lorole mo dinaung tsa lona lo tsamaye; ke sesupo sa gore lo tlogeletse motse oo tshekiso.”
Whoever will not receive you nor hear you, as you depart from there, shake off the dust that is under your feet for a testimony against them. Assuredly, I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!”
12 Barutwa ba tsamaya, ba bolelela mongwe le mongwe yo ba kopanang nae gore a sokologe mo dibeng.
They went out and preached that people should repent.
13 Mme ba kgoromeletsa ntle mewa e e maswe e le mentsi ba fodisa babobodi ba le bantsi ba ba tlotsa ka lookwane.
They cast out many demons, and anointed many with oil who were sick and healed them.
14 Mme ka bofefo Kgosi Herode a utlwa kaga Jesu, gonne dikgakgamatso tsa gagwe di ne di buiwa gongwe le gongwe. Kgosi e ne e akanya gore Jesu ke Johane wa Mokolobetsi a boetse mo botshelong. Hong batho ba ne ba re, “Ga go gakgamatse fa a ka dira dikgakgamatso tse di kalo.”
King Herod heard this, for his name had become known, and he said, “John the Baptizer has risen from the dead, and therefore these powers are at work in him.”
15 Mme ba bangwe ba ne ba gopola gore Jesu ke Elija Moporofiti wa bogologolo o ka ne a boetse gape mo botshelong; ba bangwe ba gopola gore ke moporofiti yo mosha yo o tshwanang le bangwe ba ba tona ba bogologolo.
But others said, “He is Elijah.” Others said, “He is a prophet, or like one of the prophets.”
16 Herode a re, “Nnyaa, ke Johane, monna yo ke mo kgaotseng tlhogo. O tsogile mo baswing.”
But Herod, when he heard this, said, “This is John, whom I beheaded. He has risen from the dead.”
17 Gonne Herode o ne a rometse masole go tshwara Johane go mo isa kgolegelong ka ntlha ya gore o ne a tswelela a ntse a re, ke phoso fa kgosi e nyala Herodiase, mogatsa Filipo monnawe kgosi.
For Herod himself had sent out and arrested John and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife, for he had married her.
For John had said to Herod, “It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife.”
19 Herodiase o ne a batla gore Johane a bolawe a ipusulosetse, le fa go ntse jalo, kwa ntle ga tumalano ya ga Herode, Herodiase a palelwa.
Herodias set herself against him and desired to kill him, but she could not,
20 Herode o ne a tlotla Johane, a itse fa e le motho yo o molemo a bile a le boitshepo, foo a mmaya ka fa tlase ga tshireletso ya gagwe. Herode o ne a tshwenyega nako tsotlhe fa a bua le Johane, le fa go ntse jalo o ne a rata go mo reetsa.
for Herod feared John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and kept him safe. When he heard him, he did many things, and he heard him gladly.
21 Mme ya re la bofelo lobaka lwa ga Herodiase la tla. Ya re letsatsi la botsalo jwa ga Herode, Herode a direla bagolwane ba bogosi jwa gagwe mokete le bagolwane ba sesole, le baeteledipele ba baagedi ba motse wa Galalea.
Then a convenient day came when Herod on his birthday made a supper for his nobles, the high officers, and the chief men of Galilee.
22 Hong ngwana wa mosetsana wa ga Herodiase a tla a bina fa pele ga bone ka botswerere a ba itumedisa fela botlhe. Kgosi ya mo raya ya re, “Nkopa sengwe se o se ratang,” “Le fa e le bontlha jwa bogosi jwa me, mme ke tla bo go naya!”
When the daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced, she pleased Herod and those sitting with him. The king said to the young lady, “Ask me whatever you want, and I will give it to you.”
He swore to her, “Whatever you ask of me, I will give you, up to half of my kingdom.”
24 Mme a tsamaya a ya go itsise mmaagwe, yo o neng a mo raya a re, “Lopa tlhogo ya ga Johone wa Mokolobetsi!”
She went out and said to her mother, “What shall I ask?” She said, “The head of John the Baptizer.”
25 Hong a boela kwa morago kwa kgosing a ya go e bolelela, a re, “Ke batla tlhogo ya ga Johane wa Mokolobetsi e le mo mogopong.”
She came in immediately with haste to the king and requested, “I want you to give me right now the head of John the Baptizer on a platter.”
26 Mme kgosi ya hutsahala thata, ya tlhajwa ke ditlhong go roba maikano a yone fa pele ga baeng ba yone.
The king was exceedingly sorry, but for the sake of his oaths and of his dinner guests, he did not wish to refuse her.
27 Hong a roma mongwe wa batlhokomedi ba gagwe kwa kgolegelong go ya go kgaola tlhogo ya ga Johane le go e lere kwa go ene. Mme lesole la ya go bolaya Johane mo kgolegelong,
Immediately the king sent out a soldier of his guard and commanded to bring John’s head; and he went and beheaded him in the prison,
28 a tla ka tlhogo ya ga Johane e le mo mogopong, a e naya mosetsana, mosetsana ene a ya go e naya mmaagwe.
and brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the young lady; and the young lady gave it to her mother.
29 Erile barutwa ba ga Johane ba utlwa se se diragetseng, ba tla ba tsaya mmele wa gagwe ba ya go o boloka mo lebitleng.
When his disciples heard this, they came and took up his corpse and laid it in a tomb.
30 Mme baaposetoloi ba boela kwa go Jesu ba tswa loetong lwa bone ba mmolelela gotlhe mo ba go dirileng le mo ba go buileng le batho ba ba neng ba ba etela.
The apostles gathered themselves together to Jesus, and they told him all things, whatever they had done, and whatever they had taught.
31 Hong Jesu a ba raya a re, “A re tsweng mo bontsing jwa batho ka lobakanyana re yeng go itapolosa.” Gonne go ne go na le batho ba le bantsi ba ba tlang le ba ba tsamayang ba sena nako le ya go ja tota.
He said to them, “Come away into a deserted place, and rest awhile.” For there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.
32 Mme ba tsamaya ka mokoro ba ya fa lefelong le le tuuletseng.
They went away in the boat to a deserted place by themselves.
33 Mme batho ba le bantsi ba ba bona ba tsamaya mme ba tabogela kwa pele ba le mo lotshitshing ba ba kgatlhantsha fa ba tswa mo mokorong.
They saw them going, and many recognized him and ran there on foot from all the cities. They arrived before them and came together to him.
34 Fela jaaka gale, bontsi jwa batho jwa bo bo le teng fa a tswa mo mokorong; mme a ba tlhomogela pelo ka ntlha ya gore ba ne ba tshwana le dinku tse di senang modisa a ba ruta dilo di le dintsi tse ba tshwanetseng go di itse.
Jesus came out, saw a great multitude, and he had compassion on them because they were like sheep without a shepherd; and he began to teach them many things.
35 Mme morago ga tshokologo ya letsatsi barutwa ba gagwe ba tla kwa go ene ba re, “Bolelela batho gore ba tsamaye ba ye kwa metsing e e gaufi le masimo ba ye go itshenkela dijo, gonne ga go na sepe se se ka jewang mo thoteng e, gape go nna bosigo.”
When it was late in the day, his disciples came to him and said, “This place is deserted, and it is late in the day.
Send them away, that they may go into the surrounding country and villages and buy themselves bread, for they have nothing to eat.”
37 Hong Jesu a re, “Ba fepeng.” Mme ba botsa ba re, “Ka eng? Go tlaa lopa madi a le mantsi go reka dijo tsa bontsi jo bo kana!”
But he answered them, “You give them something to eat.” They asked him, “Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give them something to eat?”
38 Mme a ba botsa a re, “Re na le dijo di le kana kang? Tsamayang lo yeng go bona.” Mme ba tla gape go tla go mmolelela gore go na le dinkgwe di le tlhano le ditlhapi di le pedi.
He said to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go see.” When they knew, they said, “Five, and two fish.”
39 Hong Jesu a bolelela bontsi jwa batho gore ba nne fa fatshe, mme ka bonako ba kgaoganngwa ka ditlhopha tsa masome a matlhano kgotsa lekgolo mme botlhe ba bo ba ntse mo bojannyeng jo botala.
He commanded them that everyone should sit down in groups on the green grass.
They sat down in ranks, by hundreds and by fifties.
41 Hong a tsaya dinkgwe tse tlhano le ditlhapi tse pedi a leba kwa legodimong, a lebogela dijo tseo. A ngathoganya dinkgwe go nna dikapetlana, a neela barutwa ba gagwe bontlha bongwe jwa dinkgwe le ditlhapi go di fa batho.
He took the five loaves and the two fish; and looking up to heaven, he blessed and broke the loaves, and he gave to his disciples to set before them, and he divided the two fish among them all.
42 Mme batho baa ja botlhe ba kgora!
They all ate and were filled.
43 Go ne go le banna ba ka nna dikete di le tlhano ka nako ya dijo, morago ga moo ditlatlana di le lesome le bobedi tsa tlala masalela a a neng a selwa fa fatshe mo bojannyeng!
They took up twelve baskets full of broken pieces and also of the fish.
Those who ate the loaves were five thousand men.
45 Mme ka bonako morago ga moo Jesu a laola barutwa ba gagwe gore ba boele mo mokorong ba kgabaganye lecha ba ye Bethesaida, kwa o neng a tlaa kopana le bone teng morago. Fa Ene a ne a sa ntse a saletse go sadisa batho sentle gore ba boele gae.
Immediately he made his disciples get into the boat and go ahead to the other side, to Bethsaida, while he himself sent the multitude away.
46 Morago ga moo a tsamaya a ya kwa dithabeng go rapela.
After he had taken leave of them, he went up the mountain to pray.
47 Mme ya re bosigo, fa barutwa ba gagwe ba le mo mokorong mo gare ga lecha, ene a bo a le nosi ka kwa ntle ga lecha.
When evening had come, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and he was alone on the land.
48 Mme a bona fa ba le mo matshwenyegong a magolo, ba hudua ka bothata le go kgaratlha kgatlhanong le phefo e e tsubutlang le makhubu a lewatle. Erile e ka ne e le nako ya boraro mo mosong a tsamaela kwa go bone mo godimo ga metsi. Mme ya re ekete o a ba feta,
Seeing them distressed in rowing, for the wind was contrary to them, about the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea; and he would have passed by them,
49 ba bona sengwe se tsamaya tsamaya fa thoko ga bone ba goa ka letshogo, ba gopola fa e le sepoko,
but they, when they saw him walking on the sea, supposed that it was a ghost, and cried out;
50 gonne ba ne ba mmona botlhe. Mme a bua le bone a re, “Go siame, se boifeng! Ke nna.”
for they all saw him and were troubled. But he immediately spoke with them and said to them, “Cheer up! It is I! Do not be afraid.”
51 Hong a palama mo mokorong, phefo ya didimala! Ba nna fela foo ba gakgametse.
He got into the boat with them; and the wind ceased, and they were very amazed among themselves, and marveled;
52 Gonne ba ne ba ise ba lemoge gore ke mang le fa e le morago ga kgakgamatso ya maabane maitsiboa! Gonne ba ne ba sa batle go dumela.
for they had not understood about the loaves, but their hearts were hardened.
53 Mme ya re ba fitlha kwa Geneseretha ka fa ntlheng e nngwe ya lecha ba bohelela mokoro,
When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret and moored to the shore.
54 ba fologa. Mme batho ba ba neng ba eme mo tikologong eo ba mo lemoga fela ka nako eo,
When they had come out of the boat, immediately the people recognized him,
55 mme ba taboga le tikologo yotlhe ba anamisa dikgang kaga kgorogo ya gagwe, ba simolola go rwalela balwetse kwa go ene ka mapara le ka meseme.
and ran around that whole region, and began to bring those who were sick on their mats to where they heard he was.
56 Gongwe le gongwe mo a neng a tsamaya teng, mo metsaneng le mo metseng e megolo, le kwa ntle kwa masimo, ba baya balwetse mo dipatlelong tsa marekelo le mo ditseleng ba mo rapela gore a ba letle ba ame makantsa a diaparo tsa gagwe; mme botlhe ba ba mo amileng ba fodisiwa.
Wherever he entered—into villages, or into cities, or into the country—they laid the sick in the marketplaces and begged him that they might just touch the fringe of his garment; and as many as touched him were made well.
