Marko 1
1 Huu ni mwanzo wa injili ya Yesu Kristo, Mwana wa Mungu.
The beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
2 Kama ilivyoandikwa na nabii Isaya, “Tazama, ninamtuma mjumbe wangu mbele yako, mmoja atakayetayarisha njia yako.
As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my agent before thy face, who will prepare thy way before thee.
3 Sauti ya mtu aitaye nyikani, “Ikamilisheni njia ya Bwana; zinyosheni njia zake”.
The voice of a man crying out in the wilderness: Prepare ye the way of the Lord. Make his paths straight.
4 Yohana alikuja, akibatiza nyikani na kuhubiri ubatizo wa toba kwa msamaha wa dhambi.
It came to pass, that John was immersing in the wilderness and preaching an immersion of repentance for remission of sins.
5 Nchi yote ya Yudea na watu wote wa Yerusalemu walikwenda kwake. Walikuwa wakibatizwa naye katika mto Yordani, wakiungama dhambi zao.
And all the land of Judea and the Jerusalemites went out to him, and they were all immersed by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
6 Yohana alikuwa anavaa vazi la manyoya ya ngamia na mkanda wa ngozi kiunoni mwake, na alikuwa anakula nzige na asali ya porini.
And John was clothed with camel's hair and a leather belt around his waist, and eating locusts and wild honey.
7 Alihubiri na kusema, “Yupo mmoja anakuja baada yangu mwenye nguvu zaidi kuliko mimi, na sina hadhi hata ya kuinama chini na kufungua kamba za viatu vyake.
And he preached, saying, A man mightier than I comes after me of whom I am not worthy, having stooped down, to loosen the strap of his shoes.
8 Mimi niliwabatiza kwa maji, lakini yeye atawabatiza ninyi kwa Roho Mtakatifu.”
I indeed immersed you in water, but he will immerse you in the Holy Spirit.
9 Ilitokea katika siku hizo kwamba Yesu alikuja kutoka Nazareti ya Galilaya, na alibatizwa na Yohana katika mto Yordani.
And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was immersed by John in the Jordan.
10 Wakati Yesu alipoinuka kutoka majini, aliona mbingu zimegawanyika wazi na Roho akishuka chini juu yake kama njiwa.
And straightaway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens divided, and the Spirit descending upon him as a dove.
11 Na sauti ilitoka mbinguni, “Wewe ni Mwanangu mpendwa. Ninapendezwa sana na wewe.”
And a voice occurred out of the heavens, Thou are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
12 Kisha mara moja Roho akamlazimisha kwenda nyikani.
And straightaway the Spirit drives him forth into the wilderness.
13 Alikuwako nyikani siku arobaini, akijaribiwa na Shetani. Alikuwa pamoja na wanyama wa mwituni, na malaika walimhudumia.
And he was there in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan. And he was with the wild beasts. And the agents served him.
14 Sasa baada ya Yohana kukamatwa, Yesu alikuja Galilaya akitangaza injili ya Mungu,
Now after John was delivered up, Jesus came into Galilee proclaiming the good news of God,
15 akisema, “Muda umetimia, na ufalme wa Mungu umekaribia. Tubuni na kuamini katika injili”.
and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has come near. Repent ye, and believe in the good news.
16 Na akipita kando ya bahari ya Galilaya, alimwona Simoni na Andrea ndugu wa Simoni wakitupa nyavu zao katika bahari, kwa kuwa walikuwa wavuvi.
And walking beside the sea of Galilee he saw Simon and Andrew his brother, the son of Simon, casting a net in the sea, for they were fishermen.
17 Yesu aliwaambia, “Njoni, nifuateni, na nitawafanya wavuvi wa watu.”
And Jesus said to them, Come ye behind me, and I will make you to become fishermen of men.
18 Na mara moja waliacha nyavu na wakamfuata.
And straightaway they left the nets, and followed him.
19 Wakati Yesu alipotembea umbali kidogo, alimwona Yakobo mwana wa Zebedayo na Yohana ndugu yake; walikuwa kwenye mtumbwi wakitengeneza nyavu.
And having advanced a little from there he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.
20 Mara aliwaita na wao walimwacha baba yao Zebedayo ndani ya mtumbwi na watumishi waliokodiwa, wakamfuata.
And straightaway he called them. And having left their father Zebedee in the boat with the workmen, they went behind him.
21 Na walipofika Kaperinaumu, siku ya Sabato, Yesu aliingia kwenye sinagogi na kufundisha.
And they entered into Capernaum, and straightaway on the sabbath day, having entered into the synagogue, he taught.
22 Walilishangaa fundisho lake, kwa vile alikuwa akiwafundisha kama mtu ambaye ana mamlaka na siyo kama waandishi.
And they were astonished at his teaching, for he was teaching them as having authority, and not as the scholars.
23 Wakati huo huo kulikuwa na mtu katika sinagogi lao aliyekuwa na roho mchafu, na alipiga kelele,
And a man was in their synagogue with an unclean spirit. And he cried out,
24 akisema, “Tuna nini cha kufanya na wewe, Yesu wa Nazareti? Umekuja kutuangamiza? Nakujua u nani. Wewe ni Mtakatifu pekee wa Mungu!”
saying, Oh no! What is with us and with thee, Jesus of Nazareth? Did thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou are, the Holy man of God.
25 Yesu alimkemea pepo na kusema, “Nyamaza na utoke ndani yake!”
And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Be thou muzzled, and come out of him.
26 Na roho mchafu alimwangusha chini na akatoka kwake wakati akilia kwa sauti ya juu.
And the unclean spirit, having convulsed him and having cried in a great voice, came out of him.
27 Na watu wote walishangaa, hivyo wakaulizana kila mmoja, “Hii ni nini? Fundisho jipya lenye mamlaka? Hata huamuru pepo wachafu nao wanamtii!”
And they were all amazed, so as to question among themselves, saying, What is this? What is this new doctrine, that he commands with authority, and the unclean spirits also obey him?
28 Na habari kuhusu yeye mara moja zikasambaa kila mahali ndani ya mkoa wote wa Galilaya.
And his fame went forth straightaway into the entire region around Galilee.
29 Na mara moja baada ya kutoka nje ya sinagogi, waliingia nyumbani mwa Simoni na Andrea wakiwa na Yakobo na Yohana.
And straightaway, when they came forth out of the synagogue they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30 Sasa mama mkwe wa Simoni alikuwa amelala mgonjwa wa homa, na mara moja walimwambia Yesu habari zake.
But Simon's mother-in-law lay feverish, and straightaway they tell him about her.
31 Hivyo alikuja, alimshika kwa mkono, na kumwinua juu; homa ikaondoka kwake, na akaanza kuwahudumia.
And upon coming, having taken hold of her hand, he raised her up and the fever left her. And straightaway she served them.
32 Jioni hiyo wakati jua limekwisha zama, walimletea kwake wote waliokuwa wagonjwa, au waliopagawa na pepo.
And having become evening when the sun set they brought to him all who were faring badly, and those who were demon-possessed.
33 Mji wote walikusanyika pamoja katika mlango.
And the whole city was gathered together near the door.
34 Aliwaponya wengi waliokuwa wagonjwa wa magonjwa mbalimbali na kutoa pepo wengi, bali hakuruhusu pepo kuongea kwa sababu walimjua.
And he healed many who were faring badly with various diseases, and cast out many demons. And he did not allow the demons to speak, because they had recognized him.
35 Aliamka asubuhi na mapema, wakati ilikuwa bado giza; aliondoka na kwenda mahali pa faragha na aliomba huko.
And having risen early, very much in the night, he came out and departed into a desolate place, and prayed there.
36 Simoni na wote waliokuwa pamoja naye walimtafuta.
And Simon and those with him searched for him.
37 Walimpata na wakamwambia, “Kila mmoja anakutafuta”
And having found him, they say to him, All are seeking thee.
38 Aliwaambia, “Twendeni mahali pengine, nje katika miji inayozunguka, ili niweze kuhubiri huko pia. Ndiyo sababu nilikuja hapa.”
And he says to them, Let us go into the nearby towns, so that I may preach there also. For I came forth for this.
39 Alikwenda akipita Galilaya yote, akihubiri katika masinagogi yao na kukemea pepo.
And he was preaching in their synagogues in all Galilee, and casting out the demons.
40 Mwenye ukoma mmoja alikuja kwake. Alikuwa akimsihi; alipiga magoti na alimwambia, “Kama unataka, waweza kunifanya niwe safi.”
And a leper comes to him beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying to him, If thou will thou can make me clean.
41 Akisukumwa na huruma, Yesu alinyosha mkono wake na kumgusa, akimwambia, “Ninataka. Uwe msafi.”
And Jesus, having felt compassion, having reached out his hand, he touched him, and says to him, I will, be thou clean.
42 Mara moja ukoma ukamtoka, na alifanywa kuwa safi.
And after he spoke, straightaway the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.
43 Yesu akamwonya vikali na akamwambia aende mara moja,
And having strictly warned him, straightaway he sent him out.
44 Alimwambia, “Hakikisha hausemi neno kwa yeyote, lakini nenda, ujionyeshe kwa kuhani, na utoe dhabihu kwa ajili ya utakaso ambayo Musa aliagiza, kama ushuhuda kwao.”
And he says to him, See thou say nothing to any man, but go, show thyself to the priest, and bring for thy cleansing the things that Moses commanded for a testimony to them.
45 Lakini alikwenda na kuanza kumwambia kila mmoja na kueneza neno zaidi hata Yesu hakuweza tena kuingia mjini kwa uhuru. Hivyo alikaa mahali pa faragha na watu walikuja kwake kutoka kila mahali.
But having gone out, he began to proclaim it much, and to spread abroad the matter, so as for him to no longer be able to enter openly into a city, but was outside in desolate places. And they came to him from all directions.
