Marko 10
1 Yesu akaondoka huko, akavuka Mto Yordani, akaenda sehemu za Uyahudi. Umati mkubwa wa watu ukaenda kwake tena, naye kama ilivyokuwa desturi yake, akawafundisha.
And he arose from thence, and cometh into the coasts of Judaea by the farther side of Jordan: and the people resort unto him again; and, as he was wont, he taught them again.
2 Baadhi ya Mafarisayo wakaja ili kumjaribu kwa kumuuliza, “Je, ni halali mtu kumwacha mke wake?”
And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? tempting him.
3 Yesu akawajibu, “Je, Mose aliwaamuru nini?”
And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you?
4 Wakajibu, “Mose aliruhusu kwamba mume anaweza kumwandikia mkewe hati ya talaka na kumwacha.”
And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away.
5 Yesu akawaambia, “Mose aliwaandikia sheria hiyo kwa sababu ya ugumu wa mioyo yenu.
And Yahushua answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept.
6 Lakini tangu mwanzo wa uumbaji, ‘Mungu aliwaumba mwanaume na mwanamke.
But from the beginning of the creation YHWH made them male and female.
7 Kwa sababu hii mwanaume atamwacha baba yake na mama yake na kuambatana na mkewe, na hao wawili watakuwa mwili mmoja.’
For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife;
8 Kwa hiyo hawatakuwa wawili tena, bali mwili mmoja.
And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh.
9 Basi, alichokiunganisha Mungu, mwanadamu asikitenganishe.”
What therefore YHWH hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
10 Walipokuwa tena ndani ya nyumba, wanafunzi wake wakamuuliza kuhusu jambo hili.
And in the house his disciples asked him again of the same matter.
11 Akawajibu, “Mtu yeyote amwachaye mkewe na kuoa mke mwingine, anazini naye.
And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her.
12 Naye mwanamke amwachaye mumewe na kuolewa na mume mwingine, anazini.”
And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.
13 Watu walikuwa wakimletea Yesu watoto wadogo ili awaguse, lakini wanafunzi wake wakawakemea.
And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them.
14 Yesu alipoona yaliyokuwa yakitukia, akachukizwa. Akawaambia wanafunzi wake, “Waacheni watoto wadogo waje kwangu, wala msiwazuie, kwa maana Ufalme wa Mungu ni wa wale walio kama hawa.
But when Yahushua saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of YHWH.
15 Amin, nawaambia, mtu yeyote asiyeupokea Ufalme wa Mungu kama mtoto mdogo, hatauingia kamwe.”
Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of YHWH as a little child, he shall not enter therein.
16 Akawachukua watoto mikononi mwake, akawakumbatia, akaweka mikono yake juu yao, akawabariki.
And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them.
17 Yesu alipokuwa anaondoka, mtu mmoja akamkimbilia, akapiga magoti mbele yake, akamuuliza, “Mwalimu mwema, nifanye nini ili niurithi uzima wa milele?” (aiōnios g166)
And when he was gone forth into the way, there came one running, and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Rabbi, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
18 Yesu akamwambia, “Mbona unaniita mwema? Hakuna yeyote aliye mwema ila Mungu peke yake.
And Yahushua said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, YHWH.
19 Unazijua amri: ‘Usiue, usizini, usiibe, usishuhudie uongo, usidanganye, waheshimu baba yako na mama yako.’”
Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother.
20 Akamjibu, “Mwalimu, amri hizi zote nimezishika tangu nikiwa mtoto.”
And he answered and said unto him, Rabbi, all these have I observed from my youth.
21 Yesu akamtazama na kumpenda, akamwambia, “Umepungukiwa na kitu kimoja. Nenda ukauze kila kitu ulicho nacho uwape maskini hizo fedha, nawe utakuwa na hazina mbinguni. Kisha njoo, unifuate.”
Then Yahushua beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me.
22 Yule mtu aliposikia hayo, akasikitika sana. Akaondoka kwa huzuni kwa sababu alikuwa na mali nyingi.
And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions.
23 Yesu akatazama pande zote, akawaambia wanafunzi wake, “Itakuwa vigumu sana kwa wenye mali kuingia katika Ufalme wa Mungu!”
And Yahushua looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of YHWH!
24 Wanafunzi wake wakashangazwa sana na maneno hayo. Lakini Yesu akawaambia tena, “Wanangu, tazama jinsi ilivyo vigumu kwa wale wanaotumainia mali kuingia katika Ufalme wa Mungu.
And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Yahushua answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of YHWH!
25 Ni rahisi zaidi kwa ngamia kupita kwenye tundu la sindano kuliko mtu tajirikuingia katika Ufalme wa Mungu.”
It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of YHWH.
26 Wanafunzi wake wakashangaa sana. Wakaulizana wao kwa wao, “Ni nani basi awezaye kuokoka?”
And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved?
27 Yesu akawatazama, akawaambia, “Kwa mwanadamu jambo hili haliwezekani, lakini kwa Mungu sivyo. Mambo yote yanawezekana kwa Mungu.”
And Yahushua looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with YHWH: for with YHWH all things are possible.
28 Ndipo Petro akamjibu, “Tazama, tumeacha kila kitu na kukufuata wewe!”
Then Kepha began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed thee.
29 Yesu akasema, “Amin, nawaambia, hakuna mtu yeyote aliyeacha nyumba, ndugu wa kiume au wa kike, au mama au baba, au watoto au mashamba kwa ajili yangu na kwa ajili ya Injili,
And Yahushua answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's,
31 Lakini wengi walio wa kwanza watakuwa wa mwisho, na wa mwisho watakuwa wa kwanza.”
But many that are first shall be last; and the last first.
32 Walikuwa njiani wakipanda kwenda Yerusalemu, na Yesu alikuwa ametangulia. Wanafunzi wake walishangaa, nao watu waliowafuata walijawa na hofu. Yesu akawachukua tena wale wanafunzi wake kumi na wawili kando na kuwaambia yatakayompata.
And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem; and Yahushua went before them: and they were amazed; and as they followed, they were afraid. And he took again the twelve, and began to tell them what things should happen unto him,
33 Akasema, “Tunapanda kwenda Yerusalemu, na Mwana wa Adamu atasalitiwa kwa viongozi wa makuhani na walimu wa sheria. Wao watamhukumu kifo na kumtia mikononi mwa watu wa Mataifa,
Saying, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the chief priests, and unto the scribes; and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the Gentiles:
34 ambao watamdhihaki na kumtemea mate, watampiga na kumuua. Siku tatu baadaye atafufuka.”
And they shall mock him, and shall scourge him, and shall spit upon him, and shall kill him: and the third day he shall rise again.
35 Kisha Yakobo na Yohana, wana wa Zebedayo, wakaja kwake na kumwambia, “Mwalimu, tunataka utufanyie lolote tutakalokuomba.”
And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come unto him, saying, Rabbi, we would that thou shouldest do for us whatsoever we shall desire.
36 Naye akawaambia, “Je, mwataka niwafanyie jambo gani?”
And he said unto them, What would ye that I should do for you?
37 Wakamwambia, “Tupe kukaa mmoja upande wako wa kuume na mwingine upande wako wa kushoto katika utukufu wako.”
They said unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory.
38 Lakini Yesu akawaambia, “Ninyi hamjui mnaloliomba. Je, mnaweza kukinywea kikombe ninyweacho mimi, au kubatizwa ubatizo nibatizwao mimi?”
But Yahushua said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask: can ye drink of the cup that I drink of? and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?
39 Wakajibu, “Tunaweza.” Kisha Yesu akawaambia, “Kikombe nikinyweacho mtakinywea na ubatizo nibatizwao mtabatizwa,
And they said unto him, We can. And Yahushua said unto them, Ye shall indeed drink of the cup that I drink of; and with the baptism that I am baptized withal shall ye be baptized:
40 lakini kuketi mkono wangu wa kuume au wa kushoto si juu yangu mimi kuwapa. Nafasi hizi ni kwa ajili ya wale walioandaliwa.”
But to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give; but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared.
41 Wale wanafunzi wengine kumi waliposikia hayo, wakaanza kuwakasirikia Yakobo na Yohana.
And when the ten heard it, they began to be much displeased with James and John.
42 Lakini Yesu akawaita wote pamoja na kuwaambia, “Mnafahamu kuwa wale wanaodhaniwa kuwa watawala wa watu wa Mataifa huwatawala watu kwa nguvu, nao wenye vyeo huonyesha mamlaka yao.
But Yahushua called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise dominion over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them.
43 Lakini isiwe hivyo kwenu. Badala yake, yeyote anayetaka kuwa mkuu miongoni mwenu hana budi kuwa mtumishi wenu,
But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your minister:
44 na yeyote anayetaka kuwa wa kwanza, hana budi kuwa mtumwa wa wote.
And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all.
45 Kwa kuwa hata Mwana wa Adamu hakuja ili kutumikiwa, bali kutumika na kuutoa uhai wake uwe fidia kwa ajili ya wengi.”
For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
46 Kisha wakafika Yeriko. Yesu alipokuwa akiondoka mjini na wanafunzi wake pamoja na umati mkubwa wa watu, kipofu mmoja, jina lake Bartimayo, mwana wa Timayo, alikuwa ameketi kando ya njia akiomba msaada.
And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the highway side begging.
47 Aliposikia kuwa ni Yesu wa Nazareti aliyekuwa anapita, akaanza kupaza sauti akisema, “Yesu, Mwana wa Daudi, nihurumie!”
And when he heard that it was Yahushua of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and say, Yahushua, thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
48 Watu wengi wakamkemea, wakamwambia akae kimya, lakini yeye akazidi kupaza sauti, akisema, “Mwana wa Daudi, nihurumie!”
And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the more a great deal, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
49 Yesu akasimama na kusema, “Mwiteni.” Hivyo wakamwita yule mtu kipofu, wakamwambia, “Jipe moyo! Inuka, anakuita.”
And Yahushua stood still, and commanded him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying unto him, Be of good comfort, rise; he calleth thee.
50 Akiwa analivua lile joho lake, alisimama na kumwendea Yesu.
And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Yahushua.
51 Yesu akamuuliza, “Unataka nikufanyie nini?” Yule kipofu akajibu, “Mwalimu, nataka kuona.”
And Yahushua answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Master, that I might receive my sight.
52 Yesu akamwambia, “Nenda zako, imani yako imekuponya.” Mara akapata kuona, akamfuata Yesu njiani.
And Yahushua said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole. And immediately he received his sight, and followed Yahushua in the way.
