Marko 2
1 Baada ya siku kadhaa Yesu alirudi Kapernaumu, watu wakasikia kwamba amerudi nyumbani.
After a fewe dayes, hee entred into Capernaum againe, and it was noysed that he was in the house.
2 Hivyo watu wengi wakakusanyika kiasi kwamba hapakubaki nafasi yoyote hata mlangoni! Naye akawahubiria Neno.
And anon, many gathered together, in so much that the places about the doore coulde not receiue any more and he preached the word vnto them.
3 Ndipo baadhi ya watu wakaja wakamletea Yesu mtu aliyepooza, akiwa amebebwa na watu wanne.
And there came vnto him, that brought one sicke of the palsie, borne of foure men.
4 Kwa kuwa walikuwa hawawezi kumfikisha kwa Yesu kwa ajili ya umati wa watu, walitoboa tundu kwenye paa mahali pale alipokuwa Yesu, wakamshusha yule aliyepooza kwa kitanda alichokuwa amelalia.
And because they could not come neere vnto him for the multitude, they vncouered ye roofe of the house where hee was: and when they had broken it open, they let downe the bed, wherein the sicke of the palsie lay.
5 Yesu alipoiona imani yao, alimwambia yule mtu aliyepooza, “Mwanangu, dhambi zako zimesamehewa.”
Nowe when Iesus sawe their faith, he saide to the sicke of the palsie, Sonne, thy sinnes are forgiuen thee.
6 Basi baadhi ya walimu wa sheria waliokuwa wameketi huko wakawaza mioyoni mwao,
And there were certaine of the Scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,
7 “Kwa nini mtu huyu anasema hivi? Huyu anakufuru! Ni nani awezaye kusamehe dhambi isipokuwa Mungu peke yake?”
Why doeth this man speake such blasphemies? who can forgiue sinnes, but God onely?
8 Mara moja Yesu akatambua rohoni mwake kile walichokuwa wanawaza mioyoni mwao, naye akawaambia, “Kwa nini mnawaza hivyo mioyoni mwenu?
And immediatly when Iesus perceiued in his spirite, that thus they reasoned with themselues, he sayde vnto them, Why reason yee these things in your hearts?
9 Je, ni lipi lililo rahisi zaidi: kumwambia huyu aliyepooza, ‘Umesamehewa dhambi zako,’ au kusema, ‘Inuka, uchukue mkeka wako, uende’?
Whether is it easier to say to the sicke of the palsie, Thy sinnes are forgiuen thee? or to say, Arise, and take vp thy bed, and walke?
10 Lakini ili mpate kujua ya kwamba Mwana wa Adamu anayo mamlaka duniani kusamehe dhambi…” Yesu akamwambia yule aliyepooza,
But that ye may knowe, that the Sonne of man hath authoritie in earth to forgiue sinnes, (he sayde vnto the sicke of the palsie.)
11 “Nakuambia, inuka, chukua mkeka wako, uende nyumbani kwako.”
I say vnto thee, Arise and take vp thy bed, and get thee hence into thine owne house.
12 Yule mtu aliyekuwa amepooza akasimama, akachukua mkeka wake, akatembea machoni pao wote! Jambo hili likawashangaza wote, wakamtukuza Mungu, wakisema, “Hatujapata kuona jambo kama hili kamwe!”
And by and by he arose, and tooke vp his bed, and went foorth before them all, in so much that they were all amased, and glorified God, saying, We neuer sawe such a thing.
13 Yesu akaenda tena kandokando ya Bahari ya Galilaya. Umati mkubwa wa watu ukamfuata, naye akaanza kuwafundisha.
Then he went foorth againe towarde the sea, and all the people resorted vnto him, and he taught them.
14 Alipokuwa akitembea, akamwona Lawi mwana wa Alfayo ameketi forodhani mahali pa kutoza ushuru, akamwambia, “Nifuate.” Lawi akaondoka, akamfuata Yesu.
And as Iesus passed by, hee sawe Leui the sonne of Alpheus sit at the receit of custome, and said vnto him, Folowe me. And he arose and followed him.
15 Yesu alipokuwa akila chakula nyumbani mwa Lawi, watoza ushuru wengi pamoja na “wenye dhambi” walikuwa wakila pamoja naye na wanafunzi wake, kwa maana kulikuwa na watu wengi waliokuwa wakimfuata.
And it came to passe, as Iesus sate at table in his house, many Publicanes and sinners sate at table also with Iesus, and his disciples: for there were many that followed him.
16 Baadhi ya walimu wa sheria waliokuwa Mafarisayo walipomwona akila pamoja na watoza ushuru na “wenye dhambi,” wakawauliza wanafunzi wake: “Mbona Yesu anakula pamoja na watoza ushuru na ‘wenye dhambi’?”
And when the Scribes and Pharises sawe him eate with the Publicanes and sinners, they sayd vnto his disciples, Howe is it, that hee eateth and drinketh with Publicanes and sinners?
17 Yesu aliposikia haya akawaambia, “Watu wenye afya hawahitaji tabibu, bali walio wagonjwa. Sikuja kuwaita wenye haki, bali wenye dhambi.”
Now when Iesus heard it, hee sayde vnto them, The whole haue no neede of the Physicion, but the sicke. I came not to call the righteous, but the sinners to repentance.
18 Basi wanafunzi wa Yohana pamoja na Mafarisayo walikuwa wakifunga. Baadhi ya watu wakamjia Yesu na kumuuliza, “Mbona wanafunzi wa Yohana na wa Mafarisayo hufunga lakini wanafunzi wako hawafungi?”
And the disciples of Iohn, and the Pharises did fast, and came and saide vnto him, Why doe the disciples of Iohn, and of the Pharises fast, and thy disciples fast not?
19 Yesu akawajibu, “Wageni wa bwana arusi wawezaje kufunga wakati angali pamoja nao? Wakati bwana arusi bado yuko pamoja nao, hawawezi kufunga.
And Iesus saide vnto them, Can the children of the marriage chamber fast, whiles the bridegrome is with them? as long as they haue the bridegrome with them, they cannot fast.
20 Lakini wakati utafika ambapo bwana arusi ataondolewa kwao. Siku hiyo ndipo watakapofunga.
But the daies will come, when the bridegrome shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast in those daies.
21 “Hakuna mtu ashoneaye kiraka cha nguo mpya kwenye nguo iliyochakaa. Akifanya hivyo, kile kiraka kipya kitachanika kutoka ile nguo iliyochakaa, nayo itachanika zaidi.
Also no man soweth a piece of newe cloth in an olde garment: for els the newe piece that filled it vp, taketh away somewhat from the olde, and the breach is worse.
22 Wala hakuna mtu awekaye divai mpya kwenye viriba vikuukuu. Akifanya hivyo, ile divai mpya itavipasua hivyo viriba, nayo hiyo divai itamwagika na viriba vitaharibika. Lakini divai mpya huwekwa kwenye viriba vipya.”
Likewise, no man putteth newe wine into old vessels: for els the new wine breaketh the vessels, and the wine runneth out, and the vessels are lost: but newe wine must be put into new vessels.
23 Siku moja ya Sabato, Yesu pamoja na wanafunzi wake walikuwa wakipita katikati ya mashamba ya nafaka. Walipokuwa wakitembea, wanafunzi wake wakaanza kuvunja masuke.
And it came to passe as hee went through the corne on the Sabbath day, that his disciples, as they went on their way, began to plucke the eares of corne.
24 Mafarisayo wakamwambia, “Tazama, mbona wanafanya jambo lisilo halali kufanywa siku ya Sabato?”
And the Pharises saide vnto him, Beholde, why doe they on the Sabbath day, that which is not lawfull?
25 Yesu akawajibu, “Je, hamjasoma kamwe alivyofanya Daudi wakati yeye na wenzake walikuwa na njaa, wakahitaji chakula?
And he saide to them, Haue yee neuer read what Dauid did when he had neede, and was an hungred, both he, and they that were with him?
26 Daudi aliingia katika nyumba ya Mungu, wakati Abiathari alikuwa kuhani mkuu, akaila ile mikate iliyowekwa wakfu, ambayo ni halali kuliwa na makuhani peke yao. Naye pia akawapa wenzake.”
Howe he went into the house of God, in the daies of Abiathar the hie Priest, and did eat the shewe bread, which were not lawfull to eate, but for the Priests, and gaue also to them which were with him?
27 Kisha Yesu akawaambia, “Sabato ilifanyika kwa ajili ya mwanadamu, lakini si mwanadamu kwa ajili ya Sabato.
And hee sayde to them, The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath.
28 Hivyo, Mwana wa Adamu ndiye Bwana wa Sabato.”
Wherefore the Sonne of man is Lord, euen of the Sabbath.
