Mathaio 4
1 Mme Jesu a gogelwa ke Mowa o o Boitshepo kwa sekakeng, go ya go lekwa ke Satane.
Then was Jesus led up by the Spirit into the wilderness, to be tempted by the Devil.
2 Ka malatsi a le masome a mane le masigo a le masome mane o na a sa je sepe, mme a tshwarwa ke tlala.
And when he had tasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward hungry.
3 Mme Satane a mo leka gore a fetole maje senkgwe. Mme a re, go tlaa supa fa o le Morwa Modimo.
And the tempter came and said to him, If thou art the Son of God, command that these stones become loaves of bread.
4 Mme Jesu a mo raya a re, “Nnyaa! gonne dikwalo tsa re senkgwe ga se ka ke sa otla mewa ya batho: se re se tlhokang ke go reetsa lefoko lengwe le lengwe la Modimo.”
But he answered and said, It is written, “Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceedeth from the mouth of God.”
5 Mme Satane a mo tsaya a mo isa setlhoeng sa Tempele mo Jerusalema.
Then the Devil taketh him into the holy city, and setteth him on the pinnacle of the temple;
6 A mo raya a re, “Itige o itshupe fa o le Morwa Modimo; ka dikwalo tsa re, ‘Modimo o tlaa roma baengele ba One go go agelela gore o seka wa golafala,’ ba tlaa go agelela mo go sugagakaneng mo matlapeng a a kwa tlase.”
and saith to him, If thou art the Son of God, cast thyself down; for it is written, “He will give his angels charge concerning thee; and in their hands they will bear thee up, that thou mayst not dash thy foot against a stone.”
7 Jesu a mo araba ka kgakalo a re, “Gape gatwe ‘o se ka wa leka Morena Modimo ka teko ya boeleele.’”
Jesus said to him, Again it is written, “Thou shalt not make trial of the Lord thy God.”
8 Mme Satane a mo tsaya a mo isa setlhoeng sa thaba e e goletseng kwa godimo thata mme a mo kaela dichaba tsa lefatshe le kgalalelo yotlhe ya tsone.
Again, the Devil taketh him m an exceeding high mountain, and showeth him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory;
9 A mo raya a re, “Ke tlaa go fa mo gotlhe fa o ka khubama wa nkobamela.”
and said to him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
10 Mme Jesu a mo raya a re, “Tloga fa Satane. Dikwalo tsa re, ‘obamela Morena Modimo a le nosi. Reetsa ene fela.’”
Then saith Jesus to him, Be gone, Satan! for it is written, “Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.”
11 Mme Satane a mo tlogela mme baengele ba tla go mo direla.
Then the Devil leaveth him; and lo! angels came and ministered to him.
12 Mme e rile fa Jesu a utlwa gore Johane o tshwerwe, a tswa mo Judea a boela gae kwa Nasaretha mo Galalea; Mme ka bofefo a fetela kwa Kaperanama fa thoko ga Lecha la Galalea gautshwane le Sebulona le Nafetali.
Now when Jesus heard that John had been cast into prison, he withdrew into Galilee.
And leaving Nazara, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, on the shore of the lake, in the borders of Zebulun and Naphtali;
14 Mo ga diragatsa seporofeso sa ga Isaia se se reng
that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,
15 “Lefatshe la Sebulona le lefatshe la ga Nafetali fa thoko ga Lecha, le moseja ga noka ya Jorodane, le kwa godimo ga Galalea kwa go tletseng Badichaba,
“The land of Zebulun, and the land of Naphtali, by the way of the lake beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles,
16 teng koo batho ba ba neng ba le mo lefifing, ba bonye lesedi le legolo; ba ne ba ntse mo lefatshing la loso, mme lesedi la ba tlhabela.”
the people that sat in darkness, saw a great light; and upon those who sat in the region and shadow of death, light arose.”
17 Go simolola foo, Jesu a simolola go ruta a re, “Sokologang mo sebing lo sokologele mo Modimong gonne Bogosi jwa Legodimo bo, atametse.”
From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent; for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
18 Mme ya re ka letsatsi lengwe a tsamaya mo motlhabeng wa lotshitshi lwa Lecha la Galalea, a bona banna ba le babedi, bana ba motho, ebong Simone yo o bidiwang Petere le Anderea, ba le mo mokorong ba tshwara ditlhapi ka lotloa ka e ne e le batshwari le barekisi ba ditlhapi.
And while walking by the lake of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the lake; for they were fishers.
19 Mme Jesu a ba bitsa a re, “Ntshalang morago mme ke tlaa lo ruta ka fa lo ka tshwarang ka teng mewa ya batho.”
And he saith to them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.
20 Mme ba akofa ba tlogela matloa a bone ba tsamaya nae.
And they immediately left their nets, and followed him.
21 Ya re kgakalanyana mo motlhabeng wa lotshitshi, a bona bana ba motho ba bangwe gape ba le babedi, ebong Jakobe le Johane ba ntse mo mokorong le Sebede rraabo, ba roka matloa a bone; mme le bone a ba bitsa.
And going on from thence, he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them.
22 Mme ba akofa ba emisa tiro ya bone ba tsamaya nae, ba tlogela rraabo.
And they immediately left the boat and their father, and followed him.
23 Jesu a tsamaya mo tikologong yotlhe ya Galalea a ruta mo dikerekeng tsa Bajuta a rera Mafoko a a Molemo kaga Bogosi jwa Legodimo. A fodisa mofuta mongwe le mongwe wa khidiego le malwetse.
And he went round the whole of Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the glad tidings of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.
24 Pego ya dikgakgamatso tsa gagwe ya anama go feta melelwane ya Galalea mo e leng gore batho ba ba neng ba lwalela kgakala kwa Siria, ba ne ba tla kwa go ene go fodisiwa. A e ka ne e ne e le bolwetse bofe le setlhabi, kgotsa ba tsenywe ke badimo, kgotsa botsenwa, kgotsa teteselo, o ne a ba fodisa.
And his fame went forth into all Syria; and they brought to him all that were sick, afflicted with various diseases and torments, and those who were possessed by demons, and lunatics, and those who were struck with palsy; and he healed them.
25 Bontsintsi jo bogolo jwa batho jwa mo sala morago gongwe le gongwe kwa a yang gone. Batho ba ne ba tswa Galalea le mo metseng e e some le Jerusalema, le gongwe le gongwe mo Judea le kwa moseja ga Noka ya Jorodane.
And great multitudes followed him from Galilee and Decapolis and Jerusalem and Judaea, and from beyond the Jordan.
