Mako 8
1 Mumazuva iwayo vamwe vanhu vazhinji zhinji vakaunganazve. Sezvo vakanga vasina zvokudya, Jesu akadana vadzidzi vake kwaari akati,
In those days, when there was a very great multitude, and they had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples to himself and said to them,
2 “Ndine urombo kwazvo navanhu ava; atova mazuva matatu vaneni uye havana chokudya.
“I have compassion on the multitude, because they have stayed with me now three days and have nothing to eat.
3 Kana ndikavaendesa vane nzara kumisha yavo, vachaziya vakawira pasi nenzara munzira, nokuti vamwe vavo vakabva kure.”
If I send them away fasting to their home, they will faint on the way, for some of them have come a long way.”
4 Vadzidzi vake vakati, “Asi munhu angawanepiko murenje muno zvingwa zvavangapiwa vakaguta?”
His disciples answered him, “From where could one satisfy these people with bread here in a deserted place?”
5 Jesu akati kwavari, “Mune zvingwa zvinganiko?” Vakati, “Zvinomwe.”
He asked them, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, “Seven.”
6 Akaudza vanhu vazhinji ava kuti vagare pasi. Akati atora zvingwa zvinomwe uye akavonga, akazvimedura akazvipa kuvadzidzi vake kuti vaise pamberi pavanhu, uye vakaita saizvozvo.
He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground, and he took the seven loaves. Having given thanks, he broke them and gave them to his disciples to serve, and they served the multitude.
7 Vakanga vane hove duku shoma shoma zvakare; uye akavongazve akaudza vadzidzi kuti vadzigovere kuvanhu.
They also had a few small fish. Having blessed them, he said to serve these also.
8 Vanhu vakadya uye vakaguta. Shure kwaizvozvo vadzidzi vakanonga matengu manomwe azere ezvimedu.
They ate and were filled. They took up seven baskets of broken pieces that were left over.
9 Pakanga pane varume vangangosvika zviuru zvina. Uye akati avaendesa,
Those who had eaten were about four thousand. Then he sent them away.
10 akapinda mugwa navadzidzi vake akaenda kudunhu reDharimanuta.
Immediately he entered into the boat with his disciples and came into the region of Dalmanutha.
11 VaFarisi vakasvika ndokutanga kubvunza Jesu. Kuti vamuedze, vakamukumbira chiratidzo chaibva kudenga.
The Pharisees came out and began to question him, seeking from him a sign from heaven and testing him.
12 Akagomera zvikuru akati, “Seiko rudzi urwu ruchikumbira chiratidzo? Ndinokuudzai chokwadi, hakuna chiratidzo chichapiwa kwarwuri.”
He sighed deeply in his spirit and said, “Why does this generation seek a sign? Most certainly I tell you, no sign will be given to this generation.”
13 Ipapo akavasiya, akadzokera mugwa akayambukira kuno rumwe rutivi.
He left them, and again entering into the boat, departed to the other side.
14 Vadzidzi vakanga vakanganwa kuuya nechingwa, kunze kwechimwe chete chavakanga vanacho mugwa.
They forgot to take bread; and they did not have more than one loaf in the boat with them.
15 Jesu akavayambira achiti, “Chenjerai. Ngwarirai mbiriso yavaFarisi neyaHerodhi.”
He warned them, saying, “Take heed: beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod.”
16 Vakataurirana vachiti, “Imhaka yokuti hatina chingwa.”
They reasoned with one another, saying, “It’s because we have no bread.”
17 Achiziva zvavaitaurirana, Jesu akavabvunza akati, “Seiko muchitaura pamusoro pokuti hamuna chingwa? Heya, muchigere kuona kana kunzwisisa nhai? Mwoyo yenyu ichiri mikukutu nhai?
Jesus, perceiving it, said to them, “Why do you reason that it’s because you have no bread? Do not you perceive yet or understand? Is your heart still hardened?
18 Heya, mune meso asi hamuoni, uye mune nzeve asi hamugoni kunzwa nhai? Uye hamurangariri here?
Having eyes, do not you see? Having ears, do not you hear? Do not you remember?
19 Pandakamedurira zviuru zvishanu zvavanhu zvingwa zvishanu, makazadza matengu mangani ezvimedu zvakasara?” Vakati, “Gumi namaviri.”
When I broke the five loaves among the five thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” They told him, “Twelve.”
20 “Uye pandakamedurira zviuru zvina zvavanhu zvingwa zvinomwe, makazadza matengu mangani ezvimedu?” Vakapindura vakati, “Manomwe.”
“When the seven loaves fed the four thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” They told him, “Seven.”
21 Akati kwavari, “Hamunzwisisi nazvino here?”
He asked them, “Do not you understand yet?”
22 Vakasvika kuBhetisaidha, uye vamwe vanhu vakauya nomurume akanga ari bofu uye vakakumbira zvikuru kuti Jesu amubate.
He came to Bethsaida. They brought a blind man to him and begged him to touch him.
23 Akabata murume akanga ari bofu noruoko akamutungamirira kunze kwomusha. Akati apfira mate pamaziso ake Jesu akaisa maoko ake pamusoro pake, akamubvunza akati, “Pane zvauri kuona here?”
He took hold of the blind man by the hand, and brought him out of the village. When he had spat on his eyes, and laid his hands on him, he asked him if he saw anything.
24 Iye akatarisa kumusoro akati, “Ndinoona vanhu; vanotarisika semiti inofamba-famba.”
He looked up, and said, “I see men, but I see them like walking trees.”
25 Jesu akaisazve maoko ake pameso omurume uyu. Ipapo meso ake akasvinudzwa, akadzorerwa kuona kwake, uye akaona zvinhu zvose zvakanaka.
Then again he laid his hands on his eyes. He looked intently, and was restored, and saw everyone clearly.
26 Jesu akamuendesa kumba achiti, “Usapinda mumusha.”
He sent him away to his house, saying, “Do not enter into the village, nor tell anyone in the village.”
27 Jesu navadzidzi vake vakapfuurira kumisha yakapoteredza Kesaria Firipi. Vari munzira akavabvunza achiti, “Vanhu vanoti ndini aniko?”
Jesus went out, with his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his disciples, “Who do men say that I am?”
28 Vakapindura vakati, “Vamwe vanoti Johani Mubhabhatidzi; vamwe vanoti Eria; vamwezve vanoti mumwe wavaprofita.”
They told him, “John the Baptizer, and others say Elijah, but others, one of the prophets.”
29 Iye akati, “Asi imi munoti kudini? Munoti ndini aniko?” Petro akapindura akati, “Ndimi Kristu.”
He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered, “You are the Christ.”
30 Jesu akavayambira kuti vasaudza munhu nezvake.
He commanded them that they should tell no one about him.
31 Akatanga kuvadzidzisa kuti Mwanakomana woMunhu anofanira kutambudzika pazvinhu zvizhinji uye agorambwa navakuru, vaprista vakuru navadzidzisi vomurayiro, uye kuti anofanira kuurayiwa, uye shure kwamazuva matatu agomukazve.
He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
32 Akataura pachena pamusoro pazvo, uye Petro akaenda naye parutivi akatanga kumutsiura.
He spoke to them openly. Peter took him and began to rebuke him.
33 Asi Jesu akati atendeuka akatarira kuvadzidzi vake, akatsiura Petro achiti, “Enda shure kwangu, Satani! Iwe hauna zvinhu zvaMwari mupfungwa dzako, asi zvinhu zvavanhu.”
But he, turning around and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, and said, “Get behind me, Satan! For you have in mind not the things of God, but the things of men.”
34 Ipapo akadana vanhu vazhinji kwaari pamwe chete navadzidzi vake akati, “Kana munhu upi zvake achida kunditevera, anofanira kuzviramba, atakure muchinjikwa wake agonditevera.
He called the multitude to himself with his disciples and said to them, “Whoever wants to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
35 Nokuti ani naani anoda kuponesa upenyu hwake acharasikirwa nahwo, asi ani naani anorasikirwa noupenyu hwake nokuda kwangu uye nokuda kwevhangeri achahuponesa.
For whoever wants to save his life will lose it; and whoever will lose his life for my sake and the sake of the Good News will save it.
36 Munhu achabatsirweiko kana akawana nyika yose, asi akarasikirwa noupenyu hwake?
For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?
37 Kana kuti munhu angaripeiko kuti adzikinure upenyu hwake?
For what will a man give in exchange for his life?
38 Kana munhu achinyadziswa neni uye namashoko angu murudzi urwu rwoufeve uye runotadza, Mwanakomana woMunhu achanyadziswawo naye paanouya mukubwinya kwaBaba nokwavatumwa vatsvene.”
For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man also will be ashamed of him when he comes in his Father’s glory with the holy angels.”
