Marko 16
1 Wakati sabato ilipokwisha, Mariamu Magdalena na Mariamu mama yake na Yakobo, na Salome, walinunua manukato mazuri, ili waweze kuja na kuupaka mafuta mwili wa Yesu kwa ajili ya maziko.
And when the Sabbath had passed, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought aromatic spices, so that when they arrived they could anoint Jesus.
2 Asubuhi na mapema siku ya kwanza ya juma, walienda kwenye kaburi wakati jua lilipochomoza.
And very early in the morning, on the first of the Sabbaths, they went to the tomb, the sun having now risen.
3 Wakisemezana wao kwa wao, “Nani ataliviringisha jiwe kwa ajili yetu ili tuingie kaburini?”
And they said to one another, “Who will roll back the stone for us, away from the entrance of the tomb?”
4 Wakati walipotazama, walimuona mtu amekwisha kulivingirisha jiwe, ambalo lilikuwa kubwa sana.
And looking, they saw that the stone was rolled back. For certainly it was very large.
5 Wakaingia kwenye kaburi na wakamwona kijana amevaa joho jeupe, ameketi upande wa kulia, na wakashangazwa.
And upon entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, covered with a white robe, and they were astonished.
6 Akawaambia, “Msiogope. Mnamtafuta Yesu, wa Nazareti, aliyesulibiwa. Amefufuka! Hayupo hapa. Tazama mahali pale walipokuwa wamemweka.
And he said to them, “Do not become frightened. You are seeking Jesus of Nazareth, the Crucified One. He has risen. He is not here. Behold, the place where they laid him.
7 Nendeni, mkawaambie wanafunzi wake na Petro ya kuwa amewatangulia kuelekea Galilaya. Huko mtamwona, kama alivyokua amewaambia.”
But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going before you into Galilee. There you shall see him, just as he told you.”
8 Wakaondoka na kukimbia kutoka kwenye kaburi; walitetemeka na walishangazwa. Hawakusema chochote kwa mtu yeyote sababu waliogopa sana.
But they, going out, fled from the tomb. For trembling and fear had overwhelmed them. And they said nothing to anyone. For they were afraid.
9 (note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) (Zingatia: Nakala za kale hazina Marko 16: 9-20) Mapema katika siku ya kwanza ya juma, baada ya kufufuka, alimtokea kwanza Mariamu Magdalena, ambaye kutoka kwake alimtoa mapepo saba.
(note: The most reliable and earliest manuscripts do not include Mark 16:9-20.) But he, rising early on the first Sabbath, appeared first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had cast out seven demons.
10 Aliondoka na kuwaambia wale ambao walikuwa pamoja naye, wakati walipokuwa wakihuzunika na kutoa machozi.
She went and announced it to those who had been with him, while they were mourning and weeping.
11 Walisikia kwamba ni mzima na ameonekana naye, lakini hawakumwamini.
And they, upon hearing that he was alive and that he had been seen by her, did not believe it.
12 (Zingatia: Nakala za kale hazina Marko 16: 9-20) Baada ya hayo, akajitokeza katika namna tofauti kwa watu wengine wawili, wakati walipokuwa wakitembea kutoka katika nchi.
But after these events, he was shown in another likeness to two of them walking, as they were going out to the countryside.
13 Walienda na kuwaambia wanafunzi wengine waliobaki, lakini hawakuwaamini.
And they, returning, reported it to the others; neither did they believe them.
14 (Zingatia: Nakala za kale hazina Marko 16: 9-20) Yesu baadaye akajitokeza kwa wale kumi na mmoja walipokuwa wameegama katika meza, na akawakemea kwa kutokuamini kwao na ugumu wa mioyo, kwa sababu hawakuwaamini wale waliomwona baada ya kufufuka kutoka kwa wafu.
Finally, he appeared to the eleven, as they sat at table. And he rebuked them for their incredulity and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen that he had risen again.
15 Akawaambia, “Enendeni ulimwenguni mwote, na kuhubiri injili kwa viumbe vyote.
And he said to them: “Go forth to the whole world and preach the Gospel to every creature.
16 Yeyote aaminiye na kubatizwa ataokolewa, na yule asiyeamini atahukumiwa.
Whoever will have believed and been baptized will be saved. Yet truly, whoever will not have believed will be condemned.
17 (Zingatia: Nakala za kale hazina Marko 16: 9-20) Ishara hizi zitaambatana na wote waaminio. Kwa jina langu watatoa pepo. Watasema kwa lugha mpya.
Now these signs will accompany those who believe. In my name, they shall cast out demons. They will speak in new languages.
18 Watashika nyoka kwa mikono yao, na hata wakinywa kitu chochote cha kufisha hakitawadhuru. Wataweka mikono kwa wagonjwa, nao watakuwa wazima”.
They will take up serpents, and, if they drink anything deadly, it will not harm them. They shall lay their hands upon the sick, and they will be well.”
19 Baada ya Bwana kusema nao, akachukuliwa juu mbinguni na ameketi mkono wa kuume wa Mungu.
And indeed, the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven, and he sits at the right hand of God.
20 Wanafunzi wakaondoka na kuhubiri kila mahali, wakati Bwana akifanya kazi nao na kulithibitisha neno kwa miujiza na ishara zikifuatana nao.
Then they, setting out, preached everywhere, with the Lord cooperating and confirming the word by the accompanying signs.
