Mako 8
1 Mumazuva iwayo vamwe vanhu vazhinji zhinji vakaunganazve. Sezvo vakanga vasina zvokudya, Jesu akadana vadzidzi vake kwaari akati,
In those days, there being, again a large multitude, and they not having any thing to eat, calling near the disciples, he saith unto them—
2 “Ndine urombo kwazvo navanhu ava; atova mazuva matatu vaneni uye havana chokudya.
I am moved with compassion towards the multitude, because, already three days, abide they with me, and they have nothing to eat;
3 Kana ndikavaendesa vane nzara kumisha yavo, vachaziya vakawira pasi nenzara munzira, nokuti vamwe vavo vakabva kure.”
and, if dismiss them fasting unto their home, they will be exhausted in the way, —and, certain of them, are, from afar.
4 Vadzidzi vake vakati, “Asi munhu angawanepiko murenje muno zvingwa zvavangapiwa vakaguta?”
And his disciples answered him—Whence shall any one be able, here, to fill, these, with bread, in a desert?
5 Jesu akati kwavari, “Mune zvingwa zvinganiko?” Vakati, “Zvinomwe.”
And he was questioning them—How many loaves have ye? and 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.
And he sendeth word to the multitude, to fall back upon the ground. And, taking the seven loaves, giving thanks, he brake, and was giving unto his disciples, that they might be setting before them; and they set before the multitude.
7 Vakanga vane hove duku shoma shoma zvakare; uye akavongazve akaudza vadzidzi kuti vadzigovere kuvanhu.
And they had a few small fishes; and, blessing them, he bade them set, these also, before them.
8 Vanhu vakadya uye vakaguta. Shure kwaizvozvo vadzidzi vakanonga matengu manomwe azere ezvimedu.
And they did eat, and were filled, and took up remainders of broken pieces, seven hampers.
9 Pakanga pane varume vangangosvika zviuru zvina. Uye akati avaendesa,
Now they were about four thousand; and he dismissed them.
10 akapinda mugwa navadzidzi vake akaenda kudunhu reDharimanuta.
And, straightway, entering into the boat with his disciples, he came into the parts of Dalmanutha;
11 VaFarisi vakasvika ndokutanga kubvunza Jesu. Kuti vamuedze, vakamukumbira chiratidzo chaibva kudenga.
and forth came the Pharisees, and began discussing with him, seeking of him, a sign from the heaven, testing him.
12 Akagomera zvikuru akati, “Seiko rudzi urwu ruchikumbira chiratidzo? Ndinokuudzai chokwadi, hakuna chiratidzo chichapiwa kwarwuri.”
And, deeply sighing in his spirit, he saith—Why, doth this generation seek, a sign? Verily, I say—there shall, not be given, to this generation, a sign.
13 Ipapo akavasiya, akadzokera mugwa akayambukira kuno rumwe rutivi.
And leaving them, again, embarking, he departed unto the other side.
14 Vadzidzi vakanga vakanganwa kuuya nechingwa, kunze kwechimwe chete chavakanga vanacho mugwa.
And they forgot to take loaves, and, save one loaf, they had nothing with them in the boat.
15 Jesu akavayambira achiti, “Chenjerai. Ngwarirai mbiriso yavaFarisi neyaHerodhi.”
And he began charging them, saying—Mind! beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod!
16 Vakataurirana vachiti, “Imhaka yokuti hatina chingwa.”
And they began deliberating one with another, because they had no loaves.
17 Achiziva zvavaitaurirana, Jesu akavabvunza akati, “Seiko muchitaura pamusoro pokuti hamuna chingwa? Heya, muchigere kuona kana kunzwisisa nhai? Mwoyo yenyu ichiri mikukutu nhai?
And, taking note, he saith unto them—Why do ye deliberate, because ye have no, loaves? Not yet perceive ye, neither understand, —keep ye your hearts, hardened?
18 Heya, mune meso asi hamuoni, uye mune nzeve asi hamugoni kunzwa nhai? Uye hamurangariri here?
Eyes having, see ye not? and ears having, hear ye not? and remember ye not
19 Pandakamedurira zviuru zvishanu zvavanhu zvingwa zvishanu, makazadza matengu mangani ezvimedu zvakasara?” Vakati, “Gumi namaviri.”
when, the five loaves, I brake unto the five thousand, how many baskets, full of broken pieces, ye took up? They say unto him—Twelve, —
20 “Uye pandakamedurira zviuru zvina zvavanhu zvingwa zvinomwe, makazadza matengu mangani ezvimedu?” Vakapindura vakati, “Manomwe.”
When the seven, unto the four thousand, how many hampers, full measure, of broken pieces, ye took up? And they say unto him—Seven. And he was saying unto them—
21 Akati kwavari, “Hamunzwisisi nazvino here?”
Not yet, do ye understand?
22 Vakasvika kuBhetisaidha, uye vamwe vanhu vakauya nomurume akanga ari bofu uye vakakumbira zvikuru kuti Jesu amubate.
And they come into Bethsaida. And they bring unto him one blind, and beseech him that him, he would touch.
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?”
And, laying hold of the hand of the blind man, he brought him forth outside the village, and, spitting into his eyes, laying his hands upon him, he was asking him—Anything, seest thou?
24 Iye akatarisa kumusoro akati, “Ndinoona vanhu; vanotarisika semiti inofamba-famba.”
and, looking up, he was saying—I see men, because, like trees, I behold them walking
25 Jesu akaisazve maoko ake pameso omurume uyu. Ipapo meso ake akasvinudzwa, akadzorerwa kuona kwake, uye akaona zvinhu zvose zvakanaka.
Then again, put he his hands upon his eyes, and he saw clearly, and was restored, and was seeing distinctly, in broad splendour, all things together.
26 Jesu akamuendesa kumba achiti, “Usapinda mumusha.”
And he sent him away unto his house, saying—Not even into the village, mayest thou enter.
27 Jesu navadzidzi vake vakapfuurira kumisha yakapoteredza Kesaria Firipi. Vari munzira akavabvunza achiti, “Vanhu vanoti ndini aniko?”
And forth went Jesus and his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea of Philip. And, in the way, he was questioning his disciples, saying unto them—Who, are men saying that I am?
28 Vakapindura vakati, “Vamwe vanoti Johani Mubhabhatidzi; vamwe vanoti Eria; vamwezve vanoti mumwe wavaprofita.”
And they answered him, saying—John the Immerser, and, others, Elijah, —and, others, One of the prophets.
29 Iye akati, “Asi imi munoti kudini? Munoti ndini aniko?” Petro akapindura akati, “Ndimi Kristu.”
And, he, went on to question them—But, who, say, ye, that I am? Peter, answering, saith unto him—Thou, art, the Christ.
30 Jesu akavayambira kuti vasaudza munhu nezvake.
And he straitly charged them, that, no one, they should tell concerning 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.
And he began to be teaching them—The Son of Man, must needs suffer many things, and be rejected by the Elders and the High-priests and the Scribes, —and be slain; and, after three days, arise.
32 Akataura pachena pamusoro pazvo, uye Petro akaenda naye parutivi akatanga kumutsiura.
And, openly, was he speaking the word. And Peter, taking him aside, 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 round and looking upon his disciples, rebuked Peter, and saith—Withdraw behind me, Satan! because thou art not regarding 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.
And, calling near the multitude with his disciples, he said unto them—If anyone willeth, after me, to come, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and be following me.
35 Nokuti ani naani anoda kuponesa upenyu hwake acharasikirwa nahwo, asi ani naani anorasikirwa noupenyu hwake nokuda kwangu uye nokuda kwevhangeri achahuponesa.
For, whosoever willeth, his own life, to save, shall lose it, but, whosoever shall lose his life for the sake [of me and] of the glad-message, shall save it;
36 Munhu achabatsirweiko kana akawana nyika yose, asi akarasikirwa noupenyu hwake?
For, what doth it profit a man, to gain the whole world, and be made to forfeit his life?
37 Kana kuti munhu angaripeiko kuti adzikinure upenyu hwake?
For what can 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, whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man also, will be ashamed, of him, whensoever he shall come, in the glory of his Father, with the holy messengers.
