Mateo 8
1 Akati aburuka kubva mugomo, vanhu vazhinji vakamutevera.
Upon descending from the hill country He was followed by immense crowds.
2 Mumwe murume aiva namaperembudzi akauya akasvikopfugama paari akati, “Ishe, kana muchida, munogona kundinatsa.”
And a leper came to Him, and throwing himself at His feet, said, "Sir, if only you are willing you are able to cleanse me."
3 Jesu akatambanudza ruoko rwake akabata murume uya akati, “Ndinoda. Chinatswa!” Pakarepo akabva aporeswa maperembudzi ake.
So Jesus put out His hand and touched him, and said, "I am willing: be cleansed." Instantly he was cleansed from his leprosy;
4 Ipapo Jesu akati kwaari, “Ona kuti hapana waunotaurira uye ugopa chipo chakarayirwa naMozisi sechapupu kwavari.”
and Jesus said to him, "Be careful to tell no one, but go and show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift which Moses appointed as evidence for them."
5 Jesu akati apinda muKapenaume, mukuru wezana akauya kwaari achikumbira rubatsiro.
After His entry into Capernaum a Captain came to Him, and entreated Him.
6 Akasvikoti, “Ishe, muranda wangu arere kumba, akafa mitezo, uye ari kurwadziwa zvikuru.”
"Sir," he said, "my servant at home is lying ill with paralysis, and is suffering great pain."
7 Jesu akati kwaari, “Ndichauya kuzomuporesa.”
"I will come and cure him," said Jesus.
8 Mukuru wezana akapindura akati, “Ishe, handina kukodzera kuti imi mupinde mumba mangu. Asi ingotaurai henyu shoko, uye muranda wangu achapora.
"Sir," replied the Captain, "I am not a fit person to receive you under my roof: merely say the word, and my servant will be cured.
9 Nokuti ini pachangu ndiri munhu anorayirwa, ndine varwi pasi pangu. Ndinoudza uyu kuti, ‘Enda,’ achienda; neuyo ndichimuti, ‘Uya,’ achiuya. Ndinoti kumuranda wangu, ‘Ita izvi,’ achizviita.”
For I myself am also under authority, and have soldiers under me. To one I say 'Go,' and he goes, to another 'Come,' and he comes, and to my slave 'Do this or that,' and he does it."
10 Jesu akati anzwa izvi, akashamiswa akati kuna avo vaimutevera, “Ndinokuudzai chokwadi, handisati ndaona munhu ane rutendo rwakadai muIsraeri.
Jesus listened to this reply, and was astonished, and said to the people following Him, "I solemnly tell you that in no Israelite have I found faith as great as this.
11 Ndinoti kwamuri, vazhinji vachabva kumabvazuva nokumadokero uye vachagara panzvimbo dzavo pamutambo pamwe chete naAbhurahama, Isaka naJakobho muumambo hwokudenga.
And I tell you that many will come from the east and from the west and will recline at table with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the Kingdom of the Heavens,
12 Asi vadyi venhaka youshe vachakandwa kunze, kurima uko kuchava nokuchema nokurumanya kwameno.”
while the natural heirs of the Kingdom will be driven out into the darkness outside: there will be the weeping aloud and the gnashing of teeth."
13 Ipapo Jesu akati kumukuru wezana, “Enda! Zvichaitika sokutenda kwawaita.” Muranda wake akabva apora panguva iyoyo.
And Jesus said to the Captain, "Go, and just as you have believed, so be it for you." And the servant recovered precisely at that time.
14 Jesu akati apinda mumba maPetro, akasvikowana mai vomukadzi waPetro varere vachirwara nefivha.
After this Jesus went to the house of Peter, whose mother-in-law he found ill in bed with fever.
15 Akabata ruoko rwavo fivha ndokubva yapera, uye vakasimuka ndokubva vatanga kumushandira.
He touched her hand and the fever left her: and then she rose and waited upon Him.
16 Ava madekwana, vazhinji vakanga vakabatwa namadhimoni vakauyiswa kwaari, uye akadzinga mweya iyoyo neshoko akaporesa vose vairwara.
In the evening many demoniacs were brought to Him, and with a word He expelled the demons; and He cured all the sick,
17 Izvi zvaizadzisa zvakanga zvataurwa kubudikidza nomuprofita Isaya zvichinzi: “Akatakura utera hwedu hwose uye akatakura zvirwere zvedu zvose.”
in order that this prediction of the Prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled, "He took on Him our weaknesses, and bore the burden of our diseases."
18 Jesu akati aona vanhu vazhinji vakamukomberedza akarayira kuti vayambuke vaende kune rimwe divi regungwa.
Seeing great crowds about Him Jesus had given directions to cross to the other side of the Lake,
19 Ipapo mumwe mudzidzisi womurayiro akauya kwaari akati, “Mudzidzisi, ndichakuteverai kwose kwamunoenda.”
when a Scribe came and said to Him, "Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go."
20 Jesu akapindura achiti, “Makava ane mwena yawo, shiri dzina matendere adzo, asi Mwanakomana woMunhu haana paangatsamidza musoro wake.”
"Foxes have holes," replied Jesus, "and birds have nests; but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head."
21 Mumwewo mudzidzi akati, “Ishe chimboregai nditange ndambonoviga baba vangu.”
Another of the disciples said to Him, "Sir, allow me first to go and bury my father."
22 Asi Jesu akati kwaari, “Nditevere, rega vakafa vavige vakafa vavo.”
"Follow me," said Jesus, "and leave the dead to bury their own dead."
23 Ipapo akapinda muigwa uye vadzidzi vake vakamutevera.
Then He went on board a fishing-boat, and His disciples followed Him.
24 Pakarepo, dutu guru rakamuka pagungwa zvokuti mafungu egungwa akapfachukira pamusoro peigwa. Asi Jesu akanga avete.
But suddenly there arose a great storm on the Lake, so that the waves threatened to engulf the boat; but He was asleep.
25 Vadzidzi vakaenda vakandomumutsa vachiti, “Ishe, tiponesei! Tava kunyura!”
So they came and woke Him, crying, "Master, save us, we are drowning!"
26 Akavapindura achiti, “Imi vorutendo ruduku, munotyireiko kudai?” Ipapo akasimuka akatsiura mhepo namafungu uye kukadzikama kwazvo.
"Why are you so easily frightened," He replied, "you men of little faith?" Then He rose and reproved the winds and the waves, and there was a perfect calm;
27 Varume ava vakashamiswa uye vakabvunza vachiti, “Munhu akaita seiko uyu? Kunyange mhepo namafungu zvinomuteerera!”
and the men, filled with amazement, exclaimed, "What kind of man is this? for the very winds and waves obey him!"
28 Akati asvika mhiri kunyika yavaGadhara, akasangana navarume vaviri vakanga vakabatwa namadhimoni. Varume ava vaiva nehasha zvokuti hapana munhu aigona kupfuura naikoko.
On His arrival at the other side, in the country of the Gadarenes, there met Him two men possessed by demons, coming from among the tombs: they were so dangerously fierce that no one was able to pass that way.
29 Vakadanidzira vachiti, “Munodeiko kwatiri, Mwanakomana waMwari? Mauya kuzotirwadzisa here iyo nguva yakatarwa isati yasvika?”
They cried aloud, "What hast Thou to do with us, Thou Son of God? Hast Thou come here to torment us before the time?"
30 Nechokure navo, kwakanga kune boka guru renguruve rakanga richifura.
Now at some distance from them a vast herd of swine were feeding.
31 Madhimoni akakumbirisa Jesu achiti, “Kana mukatidzinga, titumirei muboka renguruve.”
So the demons entreated Him. "If Thou drivest us out," they said, "send us into the herd of swine."
32 Akati kwaari, “Endai!” Ipapo akabuda akandopinda munguruve, uye boka rose rakamhanya richidzika kumawere amahombekombe rikasvikowira mugungwa dzichibva dzafira mumvura.
"Go," He replied. Then they came out from the men and went into the swine, whereupon the entire herd instantly rushed down the cliff into the Lake and perished in the water.
33 Vaya vakanga vachifudza nguruve vakamhanya vakandopinda muguta vakandotaura zvose izvi, kusanganisira nezvakanga zvaitika kuvarume vaya vakanga vane madhimoni.
The swineherds fled, and went and told the whole story in the town, including what had happened to the demoniacs.
34 Ipapo guta rose rakabuda rikandosangana naJesu. Uye vakati vamuona, vakamukumbirisa kuti abve munyika yavo.
So at once the whole population came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw Him, they besought Him to leave their country.
