Mataayi 14
1 Unsiki ghula untwa UHelode alyapuliike imhola sa Yesu.
AT that time Herod the tetrarch heard the report of 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 unto his servants, This is John the Baptist; he is risen from the dead, and therefore miracles are wrought by 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 having seized John, had bound him, and put him in prison, for the sake of Herodias, the wife of Philip his brother.
4 Alyadindilue mu ndinde ulwakuva alyam'bulile luno nalunoghiile mu ndaghilo sa Nguluve.”
For John said unto him, It is unlawful for thee to have her.
5 UHelode ujuo akalondagha kukum'buda uYohani neke akoghopagha avaanhu ulwakuva valyankagwile uYohani kuuti m'bili.
And though he wished to kill him, he was afraid of the multitude, for they held 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 when Herod’s birth-day was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced in the circle, and pleased Herod:
7 Kuhanga akajiigha kukumpela kino ilonda kusuuma.
so that with an oath he promised to give her whatever she should 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.”
And she, being previously urged on by her mother, said, Give me here, in a spacious dish, the head of John the Baptist.
9 Untwa uHelode akasukunala kyongo. Neke ulwakuva akajighile pamaaso gha vahesia vala, akalaghila kuuti umhinja jula apelue.
And the king was grieved: but for his oath’s sake, and on account of those who were with him, he commanded it to be given her.
10 Pe akasuung'ha umuunhu alute mu ndinde adumule umutu ghwa Yohani.
And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison.
11 Umutu ghwa Yohani ghukaletua mu lisinia, akapelua umhunja jula, ghwope akampeela ung'ina.
And his head was brought on a large dish, and was given to the young lady: 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.
And his disciples came and took the body, and buried it, and they came 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.
And when Jesus heard it, he withdrew from thence in a vessel into a desert place apart: and when the multitudes heard it, they followed him on foot from the cities.
14 UYesu ye ikwika mu ngalava, akalivona ilipugha ilivaha ilya vaanhu, akavavonela ikisa, akavasosia avatamu vaave.
And when Jesus was come forth, he saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion towards 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.”
But when evening was come, his disciples came unto him, saying, The place is desert, and the day is far advanced; send the multitude away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves provisions.
16 UYesu akavamula akati, “Nakwekuti umpaka aveene avavuuke, muvapeele umue ikyakulia.”
But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart: give ye them to eat.
17 Aveene vakamula vakati, “Natuli ni kimonga apa, looli ghali gha makate ghahaano ni samaki ivili.”
And they said unto him, We have nothing here except five loaves and two fishes.
18 UYesu akavavuula akati, “Muleete apa”
Then he said, Bring them hither 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.
And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and taking the five loaves and the two fishes, looking up to heaven, he blessed them, and brake, and gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.
20 Avaanhu vakalia, vakikuta. Avavulanisivua vaake vakakong'hania ifisighasi, sikamema indiilo kijigho ni vili.
And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up the superabundance of the fragments, twelve baskets full.
21 Avaanhu vano valyaliile, avakinhaata veene valyale imbilima ihaano, kisila kuvala avakijuuva na vaana.
And they who had eaten, 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.
And immediately Jesus compelled his disciples to go on board the vessel, and pass before him to the other side, while he dismissed the people.
23 Ye avatavwile, akaluta mwene ku kilunda kukufunya. Ing'hiisi jikatengula, ajiighe mwene ku kidunda.
And when he had sent away the multitude, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when evening came, he was there alone.
24 Unsiki ughuo ingalava jila jikava jifikile pakate pa lisumbe, jitovua na mavingo, ulwakuva imhepo imbaha jikasighagha kuno viluta.
But the vessel was already in the midst of the sea, tossed with the waves: for the wind was contrary.
25 Ye kutapihenga, uYesu akaluta ku vavulanisivua vaake, ighenda pakyanya pa malenga.
Then at the fourth watch of the night came Jesus unto 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 were greatly agitated, saying, It is his apparition. And they cried out with terror.
27 Unsiki ghughuo uYesu akavavuula akati, “Kangala, neene, namungoghopaghe”
And immediately Jesus spake to them, saying, Be of good courage: it is I; be not terrified.
28 Pe uPeteli akam'buula akati, “Ghwe Mutwa, nave lweli veeve, umbuule niise palyuve nighende pakyanya pa malenga.”
Then Peter answering, said, Lord, if it be thou, command me to come unto thee upon the waters.
29 UYesu akamwamula akati, “Isa” pe uPeteli akiikka mu ngalava jila, akatengula pighenda pakyanya pa malenga, iluta kwa Yesu.
And he said, Come. And descending from the vessel, Peter walked upon the waters to come to Jesus.
30 Neke ye ivona imhepo imbaha jigugula, akaghopa kyongo, akatengulakundwiila. Pe akakoola akati, “Ghwe Mutwa, umhooke!'
But seeing the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink in the deep, 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?
Then immediately Jesus stretching out his hand, laid hold on him, and said to him, O thou of little faith, wherefore dost thou doubt?
32 Pepano uYesu nu uPeteli vakingila mu ngalava, imhepo jila jikalitima.
And when they came aboard the vessel, the wind ceased.
33 avavulanisivua vano valyale mu ngalava, vakamwimika uYesu vakati, “kyang'haani, uve uli Mwana ghwa Nguluve!'
And they who were in the vessel, came and worshipped him, saying, Truly thou art the Son of God.
34 UYesu na vavulanisivua vaake vakalovoka ilisumbe ilya Galilaya, vakafika mu iisi ija Genesaleti.
And passing over, they came to the land of Gennesareth.
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 knew him, they sent into all that neighbourhood, and brought to him all that had illnesses:
36 Vakansuuma avitikisie avatamu vabasie lu luvilo lwa mwenda ghwake. Avatamu vooni vano vakabasyagha, vakasokagha.
and they besought him that they might only touch the fringe of his garment: and as many as touched it were cured.
