Mako 1
1 Kutanga kwevhangeri raJesu Kristu, Mwanakomana waMwari.
The beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
2 Kwakanyorwa muna Isaya muprofita kuchinzi: “Ndichatuma nhume yangu mberi kwako, uyo achagadzira nzira yako,”
As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my agent before thy face, who will prepare thy way before thee.
3 “inzwi rounodana murenje, richiti, ‘Gadzirai nzira yaShe, ruramisai migwagwa yake.’”
The voice of a man crying out in the wilderness: Prepare ye the way of the Lord. Make his paths straight.
4 Uye saizvozvo Johani akauya, achibhabhatidza murenje uye achiparidza rubhabhatidzo rwokutendeuka kuti varegererwe zvivi.
It came to pass, that John was immersing in the wilderness and preaching an immersion of repentance for remission of sins.
5 Nyika yose yeJudhea navanhu vose veJerusarema vakaenda kwaari. Vachireurura zvivi zvavo, vakabhabhatidzwa naye muRwizi rweJorodhani.
And all the land of Judea and the Jerusalemites went out to him, and they were all immersed by 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 a leather belt around his waist, and eating 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, A man mightier than I comes after me of whom I am not worthy, having stooped down, to loosen the strap of his shoes.
8 Ndinokubhabhatidzai nemvura, asi iye achakubhabhatidzai noMweya Mutsvene.”
I indeed immersed you in water, but he will immerse you in the Holy Spirit.
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 immersed by John in the Jordan.
10 Jesu paakanga ava kubuda mumvura, akaona denga richizarurwa uye Mweya achiburukira pamusoro pake senjiva.
And straightaway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens divided, and the Spirit descending upon him as a dove.
11 Uye inzwi rakauya richibva kudenga richiti, “Ndiwe Mwanakomana wangu, wandinoda, wandinofarira kwazvo.”
And a voice occurred out of the heavens, Thou are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
12 Pakarepo Mweya akamutumira kurenje,
And straightaway the Spirit drives 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 there in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan. And he was with the wild beasts. And the agents served him.
14 Mushure mokunge Johani aiswa mutorongo, Jesu akaenda kuGarirea, achiparidza vhangeri raMwari.
Now after John was delivered up, Jesus came into Galilee proclaiming the good news of God,
15 Akati, “Nguva yasvika. Umambo hwaMwari hwaswedera. Tendeukai mutende vhangeri!”
and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has come near. Repent ye, and believe in the good news.
16 Jesu paakanga achifamba pamahombekombe eGungwa reGarirea, akaona Simoni nomununʼuna wake Andirea vachikanda usvasvi mugungwa, nokuti vakanga vari vabati vehove.
And walking beside the sea of Galilee he saw Simon and Andrew his brother, the son of Simon, casting a net in the sea, for they were fishermen.
17 Jesu akati, “Uyai munditevere, uye ndichakuitai vabati vavanhu.”
And Jesus said to them, Come ye behind me, and I will make you to become fishermen of men.
18 Pakarepo vakasiya usvasvi hwavo vakamutevera.
And straightaway 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 having advanced a little from there he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.
20 Haana kunonoka, akavadana, uye vakasiya baba vavo, Zebhedhi, mugwa vaine vashandi vavo, vakamutevera.
And straightaway he called them. And having left their father Zebedee in the boat with the workmen, they went behind him.
21 Vakaenda kuKapenaume, uye nomusi weSabata, Jesu akapinda musinagoge akatanga kudzidzisa.
And they entered into Capernaum, and straightaway on the sabbath day, having entered into the synagogue, he taught.
22 Vanhu vakashamiswa nokudzidzisa kwake, nokuti akavadzidzisa somunhu ane simba, asingaiti savadzidzisi vomurayiro.
And they were astonished at his teaching, for he was teaching them as having authority, and not as the scholars.
23 Pakarepo mumwe murume akanga ari musinagoge ravo akanga akabatwa nomweya wakaipa akadanidzira achiti,
And a man was in their synagogue 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, Oh no! What is with us and with thee, Jesus of Nazareth? Did thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou are, the Holy man of God.
25 Jesu akarayira akati, “Nyarara! Buda maari!”
And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Be thou muzzled, and come out of him.
26 Mweya wakaipa wakamuzunza-zunza ndokubva wabuda maari nenzwi guru.
And the unclean spirit, having convulsed him and having cried in a great 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, so as to question among themselves, saying, What is this? What is this new doctrine, that he commands with authority, and the unclean spirits also obey him?
28 Mukurumbira wake wakapararira munyika yose yeGarirea.
And his fame went forth straightaway into the entire region around Galilee.
29 Vakati vachangobva musinagoge, vakaenda naJakobho naJohani kumba kwaSimoni naAndirea.
And straightaway, when they came forth 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.
But Simon's mother-in-law lay feverish, and straightaway they tell him about her.
31 Saka akaenda kwavari, akabata ruoko rwavo akavabatsira kusimuka. Fivha yakabva mavari vakatanga kuvashandira.
And upon coming, having taken hold of her hand, he raised her up and the fever left her. And straightaway she served them.
32 Manheru acho iwayo zuva ravira, vanhu vakauya kuna Jesu navose vairwara navakanga vakabatwa namadhimoni.
And having become evening when the sun set they brought to him all who were faring badly, and those who were demon-possessed.
33 Guta rose rakaungana pamukova,
And the whole city was gathered together near 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 who were faring badly with various diseases, and cast out many demons. And he did not allow the demons to speak, because they had recognized him.
35 Mangwanani-ngwanani, kuchakasviba, Jesu akamuka akabuda mumba akaenda kunzvimbo yaakanga ari oga, ikoko akandonyengetera.
And having risen early, very much in the night, he came out and departed into a desolate place, and prayed there.
36 Simoni navamwe vake vakaenda kundomutsvaka,
And Simon and those with him searched for him.
37 uye vakati vamuwana, vakati, “Vanhu vose vanokutsvakai!”
And having found him, they say to him, All are seeking thee.
38 Jesu akapindura akati, “Ngatiendei kune imwe nzvimbo, kumisha iri pedyo, kuti ndinoparidzawo ikoko. Ndizvo zvandakauyira.”
And he says to them, Let us go into the nearby towns, so that I may preach there also. For I came forth for this.
39 Saka akafamba nomuGarirea yose, achiparidza mumasinagoge avo uye achidzinga madhimoni.
And he was preaching in their synagogues in all Galilee, and casting out the demons.
40 Mumwe murume akanga ana maperembudzi akauya kwaari akapfugama, akamukumbira zvikuru achiti, “Kana muchida, munogona kundinatsa.”
And a leper comes to him beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying to him, If thou will thou can make me clean.
41 Jesu akamunzwira ngoni, akatambanudza ruoko rwake akabata murume uya. Akati, “Ndinoda. Chinatswa!”
And Jesus, having felt compassion, having reached out his hand, he touched him, and says to him, I will, be thou clean.
42 Pakarepo maperembudzi akabva paari uye akaporeswa.
And after he spoke, straightaway the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.
43 Jesu akamuendesa pakarepo akamuyambira zvikuru achiti,
And having strictly warned him, straightaway he sent him out.
44 “Chenjera kuti urege kuudza mumwe munhu. Asi enda, undozviratidza kumuprista ugobayira chipiriso chakarayirwa naMozisi chokuporeswa kwako, chive chapupu kwavari.”
And he says to him, See thou say nothing to any man, but go, show thyself to the priest, and bring for thy cleansing the things that Moses commanded for a testimony to 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 having gone out, he began to proclaim it much, and to spread abroad the matter, so as for him to no longer be able to enter openly into a city, but was outside in desolate places. And they came to him from all directions.
