Mataayi 14
1 Unsiki ghula untwa UHelode alyapuliike imhola sa Yesu.
At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the report about Jesus
2 Pe akavavuula avavombi vaake akati, “Ujuo ghwe Yohani uMwofughi, asyukile kuhuma ku vafue, fye nambe ali ni ngufu isa kuvomba ifidegho.”
and said to his servants, “This is John the Baptizer; he has been raised from the dead, and therefore the powers are at work in him.”
3 UHelode alyajovile enendiiki ulwakuva alyankolile uYohani, akankunga na kukun'dindila mu ndinde. UYohani alyadindilue mu vwimila uHelodia un'dala ghwa Filipo, unnuuna ghwa Helode.
For Herod had laid hold of John and bound him, and put him in prison because of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife.
4 Alyadindilue mu ndinde ulwakuva alyam'bulile luno nalunoghiile mu ndaghilo sa Nguluve.”
For John would say to him, “It is not lawful for you to have her.”
5 UHelode ujuo akalondagha kukum'buda uYohani neke akoghopagha avaanhu ulwakuva valyankagwile uYohani kuuti m'bili.
And although he wanted to kill him, he feared the crowd, because they counted him as a prophet.
6 Lino, pa kikulukulu ikya kukumbuka kuholua untwa uHelode, umwalive ghwa Helodia akaseeja pamaso gha vahesia. Umhinja ujuo akamhovosia fiijo UHelode,
But while Herod's birthday was being celebrated, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and she pleased Herod.
7 Kuhanga akajiigha kukumpela kino ilonda kusuuma.
So he promised with an oath to give her whatever she might ask.
8 Neke umhinja jula akahongua nu ng'ina ikya kusuuma, akam'buula uHelode akati, “Nilonda umheele lino lino umutu ghwa Yohani uMwafughi mu lisinia.”
So she, having been prompted by her mother, she says, “Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptizer!”
9 Untwa uHelode akasukunala kyongo. Neke ulwakuva akajighile pamaaso gha vahesia vala, akalaghila kuuti umhinja jula apelue.
And the king was sorry; nevertheless, because of the oaths and those who were reclining at the table with him, he commanded it to be given.
10 Pe akasuung'ha umuunhu alute mu ndinde adumule umutu ghwa Yohani.
So he sent and had John beheaded in prison.
11 Umutu ghwa Yohani ghukaletua mu lisinia, akapelua umhunja jula, ghwope akampeela ung'ina.
And his head was brought on a platter and given to the girl, and she brought it to her mother.
12 Pepano avavulanisivua va Yohani vakaluta, vakatoola um'bili ghwa Yohani, vakaghuviika mu mbiipa. Pe vakaluta kukum'buula uYesu imhola jila.
Then his disciples came forward and took the body and buried it, and they went and told Jesus.
13 UYesu ye apuliike imhola ijio, akavuuka pala ni ngalava na kuluta pamonga pa vusyefu. Neke avaanhu ye vapuliike kuuti uYesu avukile pala, vakahuma mu makaaja ghaave, vakaghenda lughulu, vikum'bingilila uYesu kuno alutile.
Upon hearing it, Jesus departed from there by boat to a deserted place privately. But when the crowds heard it, they followed Him on foot from the towns.
14 UYesu ye ikwika mu ngalava, akalivona ilipugha ilivaha ilya vaanhu, akavavonela ikisa, akavasosia avatamu vaave.
So when Jesus disembarked He saw a large crowd, and He had compassion on them and healed their sick.
15 Ye vwilile, avavulanisivua vaake vakaluta pa mwene vakam'buula vakati, “apa tukalile pe lunyika pasila kimonga, kange vwimile uvatavule avaanhu ava valutaghe mu fikaaja kuuti vakaghule ifyakulia.”
Now with evening coming on His disciples approached Him saying: “The place is uninhabited and the hour is already late. Dismiss the crowds, that they may go into the villages and buy themselves food.”
16 UYesu akavamula akati, “Nakwekuti umpaka aveene avavuuke, muvapeele umue ikyakulia.”
But Jesus said to them: “They do not need to go away. You give them to eat.”
17 Aveene vakamula vakati, “Natuli ni kimonga apa, looli ghali gha makate ghahaano ni samaki ivili.”
But they say to Him, “We have nothing here except five loaves and two fish.”
18 UYesu akavavuula akati, “Muleete apa”
So He said, “Bring them here to me.”
19 Pepano akavavuula avaanhu kuuti vikale pa lisoli. Pe akatoola amakate ghala ghahaano ni samaki sila ivili, akalolla kukyanya, akamhongesia uNguluve. Pe akamenyulania amakate ghala, akavapeela avavulanisivua vaake, voope vakavaghavilaavaanhu.
Then He commanded the crowds to recline on the grass. And taking the five loaves and two fish and looking up to heaven, He blessed; and breaking the loaves He gave to the disciples, and the disciples to the crowds.
20 Avaanhu vakalia, vakikuta. Avavulanisivua vaake vakakong'hania ifisighasi, sikamema indiilo kijigho ni vili.
So they all ate and were filled; and they took up the fragments that remained, twelve baskets full.
21 Avaanhu vano valyaliile, avakinhaata veene valyale imbilima ihaano, kisila kuvala avakijuuva na vaana.
Now those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children.
22 Unsiki ghughuo, UYesu akavavuula avavulanisivua vaake kuuti vingile mu ngalava, valongole kuluta imwambo ijingi, pano umwene itavula ilipugha lya vaanhu kuuti valutaghe.
Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go ahead of Him to the other side, while He dismissed the crowds.
23 Ye avatavwile, akaluta mwene ku kilunda kukufunya. Ing'hiisi jikatengula, ajiighe mwene ku kidunda.
And having dismissed the crowds He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. So when night came He was alone there.
24 Unsiki ughuo ingalava jila jikava jifikile pakate pa lisumbe, jitovua na mavingo, ulwakuva imhepo imbaha jikasighagha kuno viluta.
But the boat was already in the middle of the sea, being harassed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.
25 Ye kutapihenga, uYesu akaluta ku vavulanisivua vaake, ighenda pakyanya pa malenga.
So in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking on the sea.
26 Neke avavulanisivua vaake ye vikumwagha ighenda pakyanya pa malenga, vakoghopa kyongo, vakakoola vakati, “Ilisyuka”.
And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they became agitated saying, “It's a ghost!” And they cried out for fear.
27 Unsiki ghughuo uYesu akavavuula akati, “Kangala, neene, namungoghopaghe”
But immediately Jesus spoke to them saying: “Courage! It is I; don't be afraid!”
28 Pe uPeteli akam'buula akati, “Ghwe Mutwa, nave lweli veeve, umbuule niise palyuve nighende pakyanya pa malenga.”
So in answer Peter said, “Lord, since it's you, command me to come to you on the water.”
29 UYesu akamwamula akati, “Isa” pe uPeteli akiikka mu ngalava jila, akatengula pighenda pakyanya pa malenga, iluta kwa Yesu.
So He said to him, “Come!” And stepping down from the boat Peter walked on the water to go to Jesus.
30 Neke ye ivona imhepo imbaha jigugula, akaghopa kyongo, akatengulakundwiila. Pe akakoola akati, “Ghwe Mutwa, umhooke!'
But seeing the strong wind he became afraid, and beginning to sink he cried out saying, “Lord, save me!”
31 Nakalingi, UYesu akagholosia uluvoko lwake, akankola, akam'buula akati, “Ghwe nya lwitiko ludebe uve, kiki uli ni nganighani?
And immediately Jesus reached out His hand and caught him and says to him: “You little-faith! Why did you doubt?”
32 Pepano uYesu nu uPeteli vakingila mu ngalava, imhepo jila jikalitima.
And when they got into the boat the wind ceased.
33 avavulanisivua vano valyale mu ngalava, vakamwimika uYesu vakati, “kyang'haani, uve uli Mwana ghwa Nguluve!'
Then those who were in the boat came and worshiped Him saying, “Truly you are the Son of God!”
34 UYesu na vavulanisivua vaake vakalovoka ilisumbe ilya Galilaya, vakafika mu iisi ija Genesaleti.
When they had crossed over they came to the land of Genesaret.
35 Avaanhu ava pala ye vakagwila kuuti ghwe Yesu, vakatwala imhola imbale sooni. Pepano avaanhu vakavatwala avatamu vooni kwa Yesu,
And when the men of that place recognized Him they sent messengers into all that surrounding region and they brought to Him all who were sick.
36 Vakansuuma avitikisie avatamu vabasie lu luvilo lwa mwenda ghwake. Avatamu vooni vano vakabasyagha, vakasokagha.
And they would beg Him that if only they might at least touch the hem of His garment; and as many as touched were completely healed.
