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.
Once the Sabbath had ended, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought aromatic ointments so that they could go and anoint Jesus' body.
2 Asubuhi na mapema siku ya kwanza ya juma, walienda kwenye kaburi wakati jua lilipochomoza.
Very early Sunday morning, just at sunrise, they went to the tomb.
3 Wakisemezana wao kwa wao, “Nani ataliviringisha jiwe kwa ajili yetu ili tuingie kaburini?”
They were asking each other, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance to the tomb?”
4 Wakati walipotazama, walimuona mtu amekwisha kulivingirisha jiwe, ambalo lilikuwa kubwa sana.
But when they arrived and looked, they saw that the very large, heavy stone had already been rolled away.
5 Wakaingia kwenye kaburi na wakamwona kijana amevaa joho jeupe, ameketi upande wa kulia, na wakashangazwa.
When they went into the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right, wearing a long white robe. They became very frightened.
6 Akawaambia, “Msiogope. Mnamtafuta Yesu, wa Nazareti, aliyesulibiwa. Amefufuka! Hayupo hapa. Tazama mahali pale walipokuwa wamemweka.
“Don't be frightened,” he told them. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, the one who was crucified. He is risen from the dead. He is not here.
7 Nendeni, mkawaambie wanafunzi wake na Petro ya kuwa amewatangulia kuelekea Galilaya. Huko mtamwona, kama alivyokua amewaambia.”
Look, this is the place where they laid him to rest. Now go, and tell his disciples and Peter that he's going ahead of you to Galilee. You will see him there just as he told you.”
8 Wakaondoka na kukimbia kutoka kwenye kaburi; walitetemeka na walishangazwa. Hawakusema chochote kwa mtu yeyote sababu waliogopa sana.
They left and ran from the tomb, shaking and confused. They said nothing to anyone because they were too scared.
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.) When Jesus rose from the dead on Sunday morning, he appeared first of all to Mary Magdalene, from whom he'd driven out seven demons.
10 Aliondoka na kuwaambia wale ambao walikuwa pamoja naye, wakati walipokuwa wakihuzunika na kutoa machozi.
She went and told those who had been with him as they mourned and cried.
11 Walisikia kwamba ni mzima na ameonekana naye, lakini hawakumwamini.
When they heard that Jesus was alive and that she had seen him, they didn't 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.
Later Jesus appeared in a different form to two other disciples who'd left to go to the countryside.
13 Walienda na kuwaambia wanafunzi wengine waliobaki, lakini hawakuwaamini.
They returned and told the others, but they didn't believe them either.
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.
After this he appeared to the eleven disciples as they were eating. He rebuked them for their lack of trust and their stubbornness, because they had not believed those who'd seen him after he had risen.
15 Akawaambia, “Enendeni ulimwenguni mwote, na kuhubiri injili kwa viumbe vyote.
Then he told them, “Go to the whole world, and announce the good news to everyone.
16 Yeyote aaminiye na kubatizwa ataokolewa, na yule asiyeamini atahukumiwa.
Anyone who trusts in me and is baptized will be saved, but anyone who chooses not to trust 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.
The following signs will accompany those who trust in me: in my name they will drive out demons; they will speak 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 be able to handle snakes; if they drink something poisonous they won't be harmed; they will place their hands on the sick and they will be healed.”
19 Baada ya Bwana kusema nao, akachukuliwa juu mbinguni na ameketi mkono wa kuume wa Mungu.
Then, the Lord Jesus, when he had finished speaking to them, was taken up into heaven where he sat down 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.
The disciples went out and spread the good news everywhere, and the Lord worked with them, confirming the message through miraculous signs that accompanied it.
