Mako 7
1 VaFarisi navamwe vavadzidzisi vomurayiro vakanga vauya kuJerusarema vakaungana pana Jesu
And there came together to him the Pharisees and certain of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem,
2 vakaona vamwe vavadzidzi vake vachidya zvokudya namaoko akanga ane “tsvina,” ndiko kuti, asina kushambwa.
And had seen that some of his disciples took their bread with unclean, that is, unwashed, hands.
3 VaFarisi navaJudha vose havadyi kunze kwokunge vamboshamba maoko avo, vachichengeta tsika dzavakuru.
Now the Pharisees, and all the Jews, do not take food without washing their hands with care, keeping the old rule which has been handed down to them:
4 Pavanenge vadzoka kumusika, havadyi kunze kwokunge vashamba. Uye vanocherechedza dzimwe tsika zhinji, dzakadai sokushambidza mikombe, matende, nemidziyo yokuvirisa mvura.
And when they come from the market-place, they take no food till their hands are washed; and a number of other orders there are, which have been handed down to them to keep — washings of cups and pots and brass vessels.
5 Saka vaFarisi navadzidzisi vomurayiro vakabvunza Jesu vakati, “Seiko vadzidzi venyu vachirega kurarama zviri maererano netsika dzavakuru, zvavanodya zvokudya zvavo ‘namaoko ane tsvina’?”
And the Pharisees and the scribes put the question to him, Why do your disciples not keep the rules of the fathers, but take their bread with unwashed hands?
6 Akapindura akati, “Isaya akataura zvakanaka paakaprofita pamusoro penyu imi vanyengeri; sezvazvakanyorwa zvichinzi: “‘Vanhu ava vanondikudza nemiromo yavo, asi mwoyo yavo iri kure neni.
And he said, Well did Isaiah say of you, you false ones: These people give me honour with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
7 Vanondinamata pasina; dzidziso dzavo dzinongova mirayiro inodzidziswa navanhu.’
But their worship is to no purpose, while they give as their teaching the rules of men.
8 Makasiya mirayiro yaMwari mukachengetedza tsika dzavanhu.”
For, turning away from the law of God, you keep the rules of men.
9 Uye akati kwavari, “Mune nzira chaiyo yokuisa parutivi nayo mirayiro yaMwari kuitira kuti mucherechedze tsika dzenyuwo!
And he said to them, Truly you put on one side the law of God, so that you may keep the rules which have been handed down to you.
10 Nokuti Mozisi akati, ‘Kudza baba vako namai vako,’ uye ‘Munhu upi zvake achatuka baba vake kana mai vake anofanira kuurayiwa.’
For Moses said, Give honour to your father and mother, and, He who says evil of father or mother, let him have the punishment of death:
11 Asi imi munoti, kana munhu akati kuna baba kana mai vake, ‘Rubatsiro rupi zvarwo rwamungadaro makagamuchira kubva kwandiri iKobhani’ (ndiko kuti, chipo chakapirwa kuna Mwari),
But you say, If a man says to his father or his mother, That by which you might have had profit from me is Corban, that is to say, Given to God,
12 ipapo hamuchamuregi achiitira baba kana mai vake chinhu chipi zvacho.
You no longer let him do anything for his father or his mother;
13 Nokudaro munoparadza shoko raMwari nokuda kwetsika dzenyu dzamakachengeta kusvika zvino. Uye munoita zvinhu zvizhinji zvakadaro.”
Making the word of God of no effect by your rule, which you have given: and a number of other such things you do.
14 Jesu akadanazve kwaari vanhu vazhinji akati kwavari, “Nditeererei, imi mose, uye munzwisise izvi.
And turning to the people again, he said to them, Give ear to me all of you, and let my words be clear to you:
15 Hakuna chinhu chinobva kunze ‘chinosvibisa’ munhu nokupinda maari. Asi icho chinobuda mumunhu ndicho chinoita kuti ‘asvibe.’
There is nothing outside the man which, going into him, is able to make him unclean: but the things which come out of the man are those which make the man unclean.
16 Kana munhu ane nzeve dzokunzwa, ngaanzwe.”
17 Zvino akati abva pavanhu vazhinji uye apinda mumba, vadzidzi vake vakamubvunza pamusoro pomufananidzo uyu.
And when he had gone into the house away from all the people, his disciples put questions to him about the saying.
18 Akati, “Hamunzwisisi seiko? Hamuoni kuti hakuna chinhu chinopinda mumunhu chichibva kunze chinogona ‘kumusvibisa’?
And he said to them, Have even you so little wisdom? Do you not see that whatever goes into a man from outside is not able to make him unclean,
19 Nokuti hazvipindi mumwoyo make asi mudumbu make, uyezve zvichizobuda mumuviri wake.” Nokutaura uku, Jesu akati zvokudya zvose zvakanaka.
Because it goes not into the heart but into the stomach, and goes out with the waste? He said this, making all food clean.
20 Akaenderera mberi achiti, “Zvinobuda mumunhu ndizvo zvinomusvibisa.
And he said, That which comes out of the man, that makes the man unclean.
21 Nokuti kubva mukati, kubva mumwoyo yavanhu ndimo munobuda mirangariro yakaipa, upombwe, kuba, kuuraya, ufeve,
Because from inside, from the heart of men, come evil thoughts and unclean pleasures,
22 ruchiva, nouipi, kunyengera, utere, godo, kureva, manyawi noupenzi.
The taking of goods and of life, broken faith between husband and wife, the desire of wealth, wrongdoing, deceit, sins of the flesh, an evil eye, angry words, pride, foolish acts:
23 Zvakaipa izvozvi zvose zvinobuda kubva mukati uye ‘zvinosvibisa munhu.’”
All these evil things come from inside, and make the man unclean.
24 Jesu akabva panzvimbo iyo akaenda pedyo neTire. Akapinda mumba akasada kuzivikanwa nomunhu; asi akanga asingagoni kuzvivanza.
And he went away from there to the country of Tyre and Sidon. And he went into a house, desiring that no man might have knowledge of it: and he was not able to keep it secret.
25 Zvakaitika ndezvokuti, paakangonzwa nezvake, mukadzi aiva nomwanasikana akanga akabatwa nomweya wetsvina akauya akawira patsoka dzake.
But a woman, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, having had news of him, came straight away and went down at his feet.
26 Mukadzi uyu aiva muGiriki, akaberekerwa muFonishia yomuSiria. Akakumbirisa Jesu kuti adzinge dhimoni mumwanasikana wake.
Now the woman was a Greek, a Syro-phoenician by birth: and she made a request to him that he would send the evil spirit out of her daughter.
27 Jesu akati kwaari, “Vana vanofanira kutanga kudya zvavanoda, nokuti hazvina kunaka kutora chingwa chavana uchichikandira kumbwa dzavo.”
And he said to her, Let the children first have their food: for it is not right to take the children's bread and give it to the dogs.
28 Iye akapindura akati, “Hongu Ishe, asi kunyange imbwa dziri pasi petafura dzinodya zvimedu zvezvokudya zvavana wani.”
But she said to him in answer, Yes, Lord: even the dogs under the table take the bits dropped by the children.
29 Ipapo akati kwaari, “Nokuda kwemhinduro yakadai, enda hako; dhimoni rabva pamwanasikana wako.”
And he said to her, For this saying go your way; the evil spirit has gone out of your daughter.
30 Akadzokera kumba kwake akawana mwana wake avete pamubhedha, uye dhimoni raenda.
And she went away to her house, and saw the child on the bed, and the evil spirit gone out.
31 Ipapo Jesu akabva kunzvimbo yeTire akaenda nokuSidhoni, akaburukira kuGungwa reGarirea uye nokudunhu reDhekapori.
And again he went out from Tyre, and came through Sidon to the sea of Galilee, through the country of Decapolis.
32 Ikoko vamwe vanhu vakauya kwaari nomurume akanga ari matsi uye asingagoni kunyatsotaura, uye vakamukumbira kwazvo kuti aise ruoko rwake pamusoro pomurume uyu.
And they came to him with one who had no power of hearing and had trouble in talking; and they made a request to him to put his hands on him.
33 Akati aenda naye parutivi, kure noruzhinji, Jesu akaisa minwe yake munzeve dzake. Ipapo akapfira mate akabata rurimi rwomurume uya.
And he took him on one side from the people privately, and put his fingers into his ears, and he put water from his mouth on the man's tongue with his finger;
34 Akatarisa kudenga uye nokugomera kukuru akati kwaari, “Efata!” (kureva kuti, “Dziuka!”)
And looking up to heaven, he took a deep breath, and said to him, Ephphatha, that is, Be open.
35 Pakarepo, nzeve dzomurume uya dzakadziuka, rurimi rwake rukasunungurwa uye akatanga kutaura zvakanaka.
And his ears became open, and the band of his tongue was made loose, and his words became clear.
36 Jesu akavarayira kuti varege kutaurira kana munhu. Asi paakanyanya kuita izvozvo, ndipo pavakanyanya kutaura nezvazvo.
And he gave them orders not to give news of it to anyone; but the more he made this request, so much the more they made it public.
37 Vanhu vakashamiswa zvikuru kwazvo. Vakati, “Akaita zvinhu zvose nenzira yakanaka. Anoita kuti kunyange matsi dzinzwe uye nembeveve dzitaure.”
And they were overcome with wonder, saying, He has done all things well: he even gives back the power of hearing and the power of talking to those who have been without them.
