Mathayo 8
1 Wakati Yesu aliposhuka chini kutoka mlimani, umati mkubwa ulimfuata.
And when he came down from the mountain, large crowds followed him.
2 Tazama, mkoma alikuja na kusujudu mbele yake, akasema, “Bwana, ikiwa uko tayari, unaweza kunifanya niwe safi”.
And look, a leper came to him and worshiped him, saying, "Lord, if you want to, you can make me clean."
3 Yesu akanyoosha mkono wake na kumgusa, akasema, “Niko tayari. Uwe msafi.” Hapo hapo alitakaswa ukoma wake.
And he stretched out his hand, and touched him, saying, "I am willing. Be cleansed." And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
4 Yesu akamwambia, “Angalia kwamba usiseme kwa mtu yeyote. Shika njia yako, na jioneshe mwenyewe kwa kuhani na utoe zawadi ambayo Musa aliagiza, kwa ajili ya ushuhuda kwao”
And Jesus said to him, "See that you tell nobody, but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them."
5 Wakati Yesu alipofika Kapernaumu, Jemedari akaja kwake akamuuliza
And when he came into Capernaum, a centurion came to him, asking him,
6 akisema, “Bwana, mtumishi wangu amelala nyumbani amepooza na ana maumivu ya kutisha.”
and saying, "Lord, my servant lies in the house paralyzed, grievously tormented."
7 Yesu akamwambia, “Nitakuja na kumponya”.
And he said to him, "I will come and heal him."
8 Jemedari akajibu na kumwambia, “Bwana, mimi si wathamani hata uje na kuingia ndani ya dari yangu, sema neno tu na mtumishi wangu ataponywa.
And the centurion answered, "Lord, I'm not worthy for you to come under my roof. Just say the word, and my servant will be healed.
9 Kwa kuwa mimi pia ni mtu niliye na mamlaka, na ninao askari walio chini yangu. Nikisema kwa huyu “Nenda' na huenda, na kwa mwingine 'Njoo' na yeye huja, na kwa mtumishi wangu, 'Fanya hivi,' na yeye anafanya hivyo”
For I am also a man under authority, having under myself soldiers. I tell this one, 'Go,' and he goes; and tell another, 'Come,' and he comes; and tell my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it."
10 Wakati Yesu aliposikia haya, alishangazwa na kuwaambia wale waliokuwa wakimfuata, “Kweli ninawaambia, Sijapata kuona mtu mwenye imani kama huyu katika Israel.
And when Jesus heard it, he was amazed, and said to those who followed, "Truly I tell you, I have not found so great a faith with anyone in Israel.
11 Ninawambieni, wengi watakuja kutoka mashariki na magharibi, wataketi katika meza pamoja na Abrahimu, Isaka, na Yakobo, katika ufame wa mbinguni.
And I tell you that many will come from the east and the west, and will sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven,
12 Lakini watoto wa ufalme watatupwa katika giza la nje, ambapo kutakuwa na kilio na kusaga meno.”
but the children of the Kingdom will be thrown out into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and grinding of teeth."
13 Yesu akamwambia Jemadari, “Nenda! Kama ulivyokwisha amini, na itendeke hivyo kwako”. Na mtumishi aliponywa katika saa hiyo.
And Jesus said to the centurion, "Go your way. Let it be done for you as you have believed." And the servant was healed in that hour.
14 Wakati Yesu alipofika kwenye nyumba ya Petro, alimwona mama mkwe wake na Petro amelala akiwa mgonjwa wa homa.
And when Jesus came into Peter's house, he saw his mother-in-law lying sick with a fever.
15 Yesu akamgusa mkono wake, na homa yake ikamwacha. kisha akaamka akaanza kumhudumia.
So he touched her hand, and the fever left her. She got up and served him.
16 Na ilipofika jioni, watu wakamletea Yesu wengi waliotawaliwa na pepo. Akawafukuza pepo na wale walio wagonjwa akawaponya.
And when evening came, they brought to him many possessed with demons. He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick;
17 Kwa jinsi hii yalitimia yale yaliyo kwisha kunenwa na Isaya nabii, “Yeye mwenyewe alichukua magonjwa yetu na alibeba maradhi yetu”
that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying, "He took our infirmities, and bore our diseases."
18 Kisha Yesu alipoliona kusanyiko limemzunguka, alitoa maelekezo ya kwenda upande mwingine wa Bahari ya Galilaya.
Now when Jesus saw large crowds around him, he gave the order to depart to the other side.
19 Kisha mwandishi akaja kwake na kumwambia, “Mwalimu, nitakufuata popote utakapoenda.”
Then a scribe came, and said to him, "Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go."
20 Yesu akamwambia, “Mbweha wana mashimo, na ndege wa angani wana viota, lakini mwana wa Adamu hana sehemu ya kulaza kichwa chake.”
And Jesus said to him, "The foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head."
21 Mwanafunzi mwingine akamwambia, “Bwana, niruhusu kwanza niende kumzika baba yangu.”
And another of the disciples said to him, "Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father."
22 Lakini Yesu akamwambia, “Nifuate, na uwaache wafu wazike wafu wao.”
But Jesus said to him, "Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead."
23 Yesu alipoingia kwenye mtumbwi, wanafunzi wake wakamfuata mtumbwini.
And when he got into a boat, his disciples followed him.
24 Tazama, ikainuka dhoruba kuu juu ya bahari, kiasi kwamba mtumbwi ulifunikwa na mawimbi. Lakini Yesu alikuwa amelala.
And look, a violent storm came up on the sea, so much that the boat was covered with the waves, but he was asleep.
25 Wanafunzi wakaja kwake na kumwamsha wakisema, “Bwana, tuokoe sisi, tunaelekea kufa!”
They came to him, and woke him up, saying, "Save us, Lord. We are dying."
26 Yesu akawaambia, “kwa nini mnaogopa, ninyi wenye imani ndogo?” Ndipo akaamka na kuukemea upepo na bahari. Kisha kukawa na utulivu mkuu,
And he said to them, "Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?" Then he got up, rebuked the wind and the sea, and there was a great calm.
27 wanaume wakashikwa na mshangao wakasema, “Huyu mtu niwa namna gani, kwamba hata pepo na bahari vinamtii yeye?”
And the men were amazed, saying, "What kind of person is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?"
28 Wakati Yesu alipokuwa amekuja upande mwingine wa nchi ya Magadala, wanaume wawili waliotawaliwa na pepo walikutana naye. Walikuwa wakitokea makaburini na walikuwa wakifanya vurugu sana, kiasi kwamba hakuna msafiri angeweza kupita njia ile.
And when he came to the other side, into the country of the Gadarenes, two people possessed by demons met him there, coming out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so that nobody could pass that way.
29 Tazama, walipaza sauti na kusema, “Tuna nini cha kufanya kwako, mwana wa Mungu? Umekuja hapa kututesa kabla ya wakati kufika?”
And look, they shouted, saying, "What do we have to do with you, Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?"
30 Sasa kundi kubwa la nguruwe lilikuwa likichunga, hapakuwa mbali sana walipokuwa,
Now there was a herd of many pigs feeding far away from them.
31 pepo waliendelea kulalamika kwa Yesu na kusema. “Ikiwa utatuamuru kutoka, tupeleke kwenye kundi la nguruwe.”
And the demons begged him, saying, "If you cast us out, permit us to go away into the herd of pigs."
32 Yesu akawaambia, “Nendeni!” Pepo wakawatoka na kwenda kwa nguruwe. Na tazama, kundi lote likashuka kutoka mlimani kuteremkia baharini na lote likafia majini.
And he said to them, "Go." And they came out, and went into the pigs, and look, the whole herd rushed down the cliff into the sea, and died in the water.
33 Wanaume waliokuwa wakichunga nguruwe walikimbia. Na walipoenda mjini wakaelezea kila kitu, hususani kilichotokea kwa wanaume waliotawaliwa na mapepo.
And those who fed them fled, and went away into the city, and told everything, including what happened to those who were possessed with demons.
34 Tazama, mji mzima ukaja kukutana na Yesu. Walipomwona, walimsihi aondoke kwenye mkoa wao.
And look, all the city came out to meet Jesus. And when they saw him, they pleaded with him to leave their region.
