Mako 1
1 Kutanga kwevhangeri raJesu Kristu, Mwanakomana waMwari.
The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
2 Kwakanyorwa muna Isaya muprofita kuchinzi: “Ndichatuma nhume yangu mberi kwako, uyo achagadzira nzira yako,”
Even as it is written in Isaiah the prophet, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, Who shall prepare thy way;
3 “inzwi rounodana murenje, richiti, ‘Gadzirai nzira yaShe, ruramisai migwagwa yake.’”
The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make ye ready the way of the Lord, Make his paths straight;
4 Uye saizvozvo Johani akauya, achibhabhatidza murenje uye achiparidza rubhabhatidzo rwokutendeuka kuti varegererwe zvivi.
John came, who baptized in the wilderness and preached the baptism of repentance unto remission of sins.
5 Nyika yose yeJudhea navanhu vose veJerusarema vakaenda kwaari. Vachireurura zvivi zvavo, vakabhabhatidzwa naye muRwizi rweJorodhani.
And there went out unto him all the country of Judaea, and all they of Jerusalem; and they were baptized of him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
6 Johani aipfeka nguo dzamakushe engamera, nebhanhire reganda muchiuno chake, uye aidya mhashu nouchi hwesango.
And John was clothed with camel’s hair, and [had] a leathern girdle about his loins, and did eat locusts and wild honey.
7 Uye iyi ndiyo yakanga iri mharidzo yake: “Shure kwangu kuchauya mumwe ane simba kupfuureni wandisina kufanira kusunungura rukanda rweshangu dzake.
And he preached, saying, There cometh after me he that is mightier than I, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.
8 Ndinokubhabhatidzai nemvura, asi iye achakubhabhatidzai noMweya Mutsvene.”
I baptized you with water; but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.
9 Panguva iyoyo Jesu akauya achibva kuNazareta muGarirea uye akabhabhatidzwa naJohani muJorodhani.
And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in the Jordan.
10 Jesu paakanga ava kubuda mumvura, akaona denga richizarurwa uye Mweya achiburukira pamusoro pake senjiva.
And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens rent asunder, and the Spirit as a dove descending upon him:
11 Uye inzwi rakauya richibva kudenga richiti, “Ndiwe Mwanakomana wangu, wandinoda, wandinofarira kwazvo.”
And a voice came out of the heavens, Thou art my beloved Son, in thee I am well pleased.
12 Pakarepo Mweya akamutumira kurenje,
And straightway the Spirit driveth him forth into the wilderness.
13 uye akanga ari murenje kwamazuva makumi mana, achiedzwa naSatani. Akanga ari pamwe chete nemhuka dzesango uye vatumwa vakamushandira.
And he was in the wilderness forty days tempted of Satan; and he was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.
14 Mushure mokunge Johani aiswa mutorongo, Jesu akaenda kuGarirea, achiparidza vhangeri raMwari.
Now after that John was delivered up, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God,
15 Akati, “Nguva yasvika. Umambo hwaMwari hwaswedera. Tendeukai mutende vhangeri!”
and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe in the gospel.
16 Jesu paakanga achifamba pamahombekombe eGungwa reGarirea, akaona Simoni nomununʼuna wake Andirea vachikanda usvasvi mugungwa, nokuti vakanga vari vabati vehove.
And passing along by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew the brother of Simon casting a net in the sea: for they were fishers.
17 Jesu akati, “Uyai munditevere, uye ndichakuitai vabati vavanhu.”
And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.
18 Pakarepo vakasiya usvasvi hwavo vakamutevera.
And straightway they left the nets, and followed him.
19 Akati afamba chinhambwe zvishoma, akaona Jakobho mwanakomana waZebhedhi nomununʼuna wake Johani vari mugwa, vachigadzira usvasvi hwavo.
And going on a little further, he saw James the [son] of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the boat mending the nets.
20 Haana kunonoka, akavadana, uye vakasiya baba vavo, Zebhedhi, mugwa vaine vashandi vavo, vakamutevera.
And straightway he called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.
21 Vakaenda kuKapenaume, uye nomusi weSabata, Jesu akapinda musinagoge akatanga kudzidzisa.
And they go into Capernaum; and straightway on the sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and taught.
22 Vanhu vakashamiswa nokudzidzisa kwake, nokuti akavadzidzisa somunhu ane simba, asingaiti savadzidzisi vomurayiro.
And they were astonished at his teaching: for he taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
23 Pakarepo mumwe murume akanga ari musinagoge ravo akanga akabatwa nomweya wakaipa akadanidzira achiti,
And straightway there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,
24 “Munodeiko kwatiri, imi Jesu weNazareta? Mauya kuzotiparadza here? Ndinoziva kuti ndimi ani, imi Mutsvene waMwari!”
saying, What have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.
25 Jesu akarayira akati, “Nyarara! Buda maari!”
And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him.
26 Mweya wakaipa wakamuzunza-zunza ndokubva wabuda maari nenzwi guru.
And the unclean spirit, tearing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.
27 Vanhu vose vakashamiswa kwazvo zvokuti vakabvunzana vachiti, “Chiiko ichi? Idzidziso itsva ine simba! Anorayira kunyange mweya yakaipa, uye ichimuteerera.”
And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What is this? a new teaching! with authority he commandeth even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.
28 Mukurumbira wake wakapararira munyika yose yeGarirea.
And the report of him went out straightway everywhere into all the region of Galilee round about.
29 Vakati vachangobva musinagoge, vakaenda naJakobho naJohani kumba kwaSimoni naAndirea.
And straightway, when they were come out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30 Ambuya vaSimoni vakanga vavete pamubhedha vachirwara nefivha, uye vakaudza Jesu nezvavo.
Now Simon’s wife’s mother lay sick of a fever; and straightway they tell him of her:
31 Saka akaenda kwavari, akabata ruoko rwavo akavabatsira kusimuka. Fivha yakabva mavari vakatanga kuvashandira.
and he came and took her by the hand, and raised her up; and the fever left her, and she ministered unto them.
32 Manheru acho iwayo zuva ravira, vanhu vakauya kuna Jesu navose vairwara navakanga vakabatwa namadhimoni.
And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were sick, and them that were possessed with devils.
33 Guta rose rakaungana pamukova,
And all the city was gathered together at the door.
34 uye Jesu akaporesa vazhinji vakanga vane zvirwere zvakasiyana-siyana. Akadzingawo madhimoni mazhinji, asi akanga asingatenderi madhimoni kuti ataure nokuti akanga achiziva kuti iye ndiani.
And he healed many that were sick with divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and he suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him.
35 Mangwanani-ngwanani, kuchakasviba, Jesu akamuka akabuda mumba akaenda kunzvimbo yaakanga ari oga, ikoko akandonyengetera.
And in the morning, a great while before day, he rose up and went out, and departed into a desert place, and there prayed.
36 Simoni navamwe vake vakaenda kundomutsvaka,
And Simon and they that were with him followed after him;
37 uye vakati vamuwana, vakati, “Vanhu vose vanokutsvakai!”
and they found him, and say unto him, All are seeking thee.
38 Jesu akapindura akati, “Ngatiendei kune imwe nzvimbo, kumisha iri pedyo, kuti ndinoparidzawo ikoko. Ndizvo zvandakauyira.”
And he saith unto them, Let us go elsewhere into the next towns, that I may preach there also; for to this end came I forth.
39 Saka akafamba nomuGarirea yose, achiparidza mumasinagoge avo uye achidzinga madhimoni.
And he went into their synagogues throughout all Galilee, preaching and casting out devils.
40 Mumwe murume akanga ana maperembudzi akauya kwaari akapfugama, akamukumbira zvikuru achiti, “Kana muchida, munogona kundinatsa.”
And there cometh to him a leper, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
41 Jesu akamunzwira ngoni, akatambanudza ruoko rwake akabata murume uya. Akati, “Ndinoda. Chinatswa!”
And being moved with compassion, he stretched forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou made clean.
42 Pakarepo maperembudzi akabva paari uye akaporeswa.
And straightway the leprosy departed from him, and he was made clean.
43 Jesu akamuendesa pakarepo akamuyambira zvikuru achiti,
And he strictly charged him, and straightway sent him out,
44 “Chenjera kuti urege kuudza mumwe munhu. Asi enda, undozviratidza kumuprista ugobayira chipiriso chakarayirwa naMozisi chokuporeswa kwako, chive chapupu kwavari.”
and saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing the things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
45 Asi iye akabuda akatanga kutaura akasununguka, achiparadzira shoko iro. Nokuda kwaizvozvo, Jesu haana kuzogona kupinda muguta zviri pachena asi akagara kunze, kunzvimbo dzakanyarara. Kunyange zvakadaro vanhu vakaramba vachiuya kwaari vachibva kumativi ose.
But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to spread abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into a city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.
