Mark 11
1 Bí wọ́n ti súnmọ́ Betfage àti Betani ní ẹ̀yìn odi ìlú Jerusalẹmu, wọ́n dé orí òkè olifi. Jesu rán méjì nínú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ síwájú.
When they had almost reached Jerusalem, as far as Bethphage and Bethany, near the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent on two of his disciples.
2 Ó pàṣẹ fún wọn pé, “Ẹ lọ sí abúlé tó wà lọ́hùn ún nì. Nígbà tí ẹ bá sì wọlé, ẹ̀yin yóò rí ọmọ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ tí a so mọ́lẹ̀ tí ẹnikẹ́ni kò ì tí i gùn rí. Ẹ tú u, kí ẹ sì mú wá sí ibi yìí.
‘Go to the village facing you,’ he said, ‘and, as soon as you get there, you will find a foal tethered, which no one has ever ridden; untie it, and bring it.
3 Bí ẹnikẹ́ni bá bi yín pé, ‘Kí ló dé tí ẹ fi ń ṣe èyí?’ Ẹ sọ fún un pé, ‘Olúwa ní í fi ṣe, yóò sì dá a padà síbí láìpẹ́.’”
And, if anyone says to you “Why are you doing that?”, say “The Master wants it, and will be sure to send it back here at once.”’
4 Àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn méjì náà lọ bí ó ti rán wọn. Wọ́n rí ọmọ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ náà tí a so ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà lóde ní ìta gbangba, wọ́n sì tú u.
The two disciples went, and, finding a foal tethered outside a door in the street, they untied it.
5 Bí wọ́n ti ń tú u, díẹ̀ nínú àwọn tí ó dúró níbẹ̀ bi wọ́n léèrè pé, “Ki ni ẹyin n ṣe, tí ẹ̀yin fi ń tú ọmọ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ n nì?”
Some of the bystanders said to them, ‘What are you doing, untying the foal?’
6 Wọ́n sì wí fún wọn gẹ́gẹ́ bí Jesu ti ní kí wọ́n sọ, wọ́n sì jọ̀wọ́ wọn lọ́wọ́ lọ.
And the two disciples answered as Jesus had told them; and they allowed them to go.
7 Wọ́n fa ọmọ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ náà tọ Jesu wá. Wọ́n tẹ́ aṣọ wọn sí ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀, òun sì jókòó lórí rẹ̀.
Then they brought the foal to Jesus, and, when they had laid their cloaks on it, he seated himself on it.
8 Àwọn púpọ̀ tẹ́ aṣọ wọn sí ọ̀nà. Àwọn mìíràn ṣẹ́ ẹ̀ka igi, wọ́n sì fọ́n wọn sí ọ̀nà.
Many of the people spread their cloaks on the road, while some strewed boughs which they had cut from the fields;
9 Àti àwọn tí ń lọ níwájú, àti àwọn tí ń bọ̀ lẹ́yìn, gbogbo wọn sì ń kígbe wí pé, “Hosana!” “Olùbùkún ni ẹni náà tí ó ń bọ̀ wà ní orúkọ Olúwa!”
and those who led the way, as well as those who followed, kept shouting, ‘God save him! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!
10 “Olùbùkún ni fún ìjọba tí ń bọ̀ wá, ìjọba Dafidi, baba wa!” “Hosana lókè ọ̀run!”
Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David! God save him from on high!’
11 Jesu wọ Jerusalẹmu ó sì lọ sí inú tẹmpili. Ó wo ohun gbogbo yíká fínní fínní. Ó sì kúrò níbẹ̀, nítorí pé ilẹ̀ ti ṣú. Ó padà lọ sí Betani pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ méjìlá.
Jesus entered Jerusalem, and went into the Temple Courts; and, after looking round at everything, as it was already late, he went out to Bethany with the Twelve.
12 Ní òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, bí wọ́n ti kúrò ní Betani, ebi ń pa Jesu.
The next day, after they had left Bethany, Jesus became hungry;
13 Ó rí igi ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ kan lọ́ọ̀ọ́kán tí ewé kún orí rẹ̀. Nígbà náà, ó lọ sí ìdí rẹ̀ láti wò ó bóyá ó léso tàbí kò léso. Nígbà tí ó dé ibẹ̀, ewé lásán ni ó rí, kò rí èso lórí rẹ̀. Nítorí pé àkókò náà kì í ṣe àkókò tí igi ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ máa ń so.
and, noticing a fig tree at a distance in leaf, he went to it to see if by any chance he could find something on it; but, on coming up to it, he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.
14 Lẹ́yìn náà, Jesu pàṣẹ fún igi náà pé, “Kí ẹnikẹ́ni má ṣe jẹ èso lórí rẹ mọ́ títí láé.” Àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ gbọ́ nígbà tí ó wí bẹ́ẹ̀. (aiōn g165)
So, addressing the tree, he exclaimed, ‘May no one ever again eat of your fruit!’ And his disciples heard what he said. (aiōn g165)
15 Nígbà ti wọ́n padà sí Jerusalẹmu, ó wọ inú tẹmpili. Ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí nílé àwọn oníṣòwò àti àwọn oníbàárà wọn síta. Ó ti tábìlì àwọn tí ń pààrọ̀ owó nínú tẹmpili ṣubú. Bákan náà ni ó ti ìjókòó àwọn tí ń ta ẹyẹlé lulẹ̀.
They came to Jerusalem. Jesus went into the Temple Courts, and began to drive out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers, and the seats of the pigeon-dealers,
16 Kò sì gba ẹnikẹ́ni láààyè láti gbé ẹrù ọjà títà gba inú tẹmpili wọlé.
and would not allow anyone to carry anything across the Temple Courts.
17 Gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti kọ́ wọn, ó wí pé, “Ṣé a kò ti kọ ọ́ pé: ‘Ilé àdúrà ni a o máa pe ilé mi, ní gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè?’ Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin ti sọ ọ́ di ibùgbé àwọn ọlọ́ṣà.”
Then he began to teach. ‘Does not scripture say,’ he asked, ‘“My house will be called a house of prayer for all the nations”? But you have made it a den of robbers.’
18 Nígbà tí àwọn olórí àlùfáà àti àwọn olùkọ́ òfin gbọ́ ohun tí ó ti ṣe, wọ́n bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ń gbà èrò bí wọn yóò ti ṣe pa á. Wọ́n bẹ̀rù rògbòdìyàn tí yóò bẹ́ sílẹ̀, nítorí tí àwọn ènìyàn ní ìgbóná ọkàn sí ẹ̀kọ́ rẹ̀.
Now the chief priests and the teachers of the Law heard this and began to look for some way of putting Jesus to death; for they were afraid of him, since all the people were greatly impressed by his teaching.
19 Ní ìrọ̀lẹ́ ọjọ́ náà, bí ìṣe wọn, Jesu àti àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ jáde kúrò ní ìlú Jerusalẹmu.
As soon as evening fell, Jesus and his disciples went out of the city.
20 Ní òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, bí wọ́n ti ń kọjá lọ, wọ́n rí igi ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ tí Jesu fi bú. Wọ́n rí i pé ó ti gbẹ tigbòǹgbò tigbòǹgbò.
As they passed by early in the morning, they noticed that the fig tree was withered up from the roots.
21 Peteru rántí pé Jesu ti bá igi náà wí. Nígbà náà ni ó sọ fún Jesu pé, “Rabbi, wò ó! Igi ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ tí ìwọ fi bú ti gbẹ!”
Then Peter recalled what had occurred. ‘Look, Rabbi,’ he exclaimed, ‘the fig tree which you doomed is withered up!’
22 Jesu sì dáhùn pé, “Ẹ ní ìgbàgbọ́ nínú Ọlọ́run.
‘Have faith in God!’ replied Jesus.
23 Lóòótọ́ ni mò wí fún un yín, bí ẹnikẹ́ni bá wí fún òkè ‘Ṣídìí, gbé ara rẹ sọ sínú Òkun,’ ti kò sì ṣe iyèméjì nínú ọkàn rẹ̀ ṣùgbọ́n tí ó gbàgbọ́ pé ohun tí òun wí yóò ṣẹ, yóò rí bẹ́ẹ̀ fún un.
‘I tell you that if anyone should say to this hill “Be lifted up and hurled into the sea!”, without ever a doubt in his mind, but in the faith that what he says will be done, he would find that it would be.
24 Torí náà, mo wí fún yín ohunkóhun tí ẹ bá béèrè fún nínú àdúrà, ẹ ní ìgbàgbọ́ pé, ó tí tẹ̀ yín lọ́wọ́, yóò sì jẹ́ tiyín.
And therefore I say to you “Have faith that whatever you ask for in prayer is already granted you, and you will find that it will be.”
25 Nígbà tí ẹ bá ń gbàdúrà, ẹ kọ́kọ́ dáríjì, bí ẹ̀yin bá ní ohunkóhun sí ẹnikẹ́ni, kí baba yín tí ń bẹ ní ọ̀run bá à le dárí àwọn ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ tiyín náà jì yín.”
‘And, whenever you stand up to pray, forgive any grievance that you have against anyone, so that your Father who is in heaven also may forgive you your offences.’
27 Lẹ́yìn èyí, wọ́n tún padà sí Jerusalẹmu. Bí Jesu ti ń rìn kiri ni tẹmpili, àwọn olórí àlùfáà àti àwọn olùkọ́ òfin pẹ̀lú àwọn àgbàgbà Júù wá sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀.
They came to Jerusalem again. While Jesus was walking about in the Temple Courts, the chief priests, the teachers of the Law, and the elders came up to him.
28 Wọ́n béèrè lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Àṣẹ wo ni ó fi ń ṣe nǹkan yìí? Ta ni ó sì fún ọ ni àṣẹ yìí láti máa ṣe nǹkan wọ̀nyí?”
‘What authority have you to do these things?’ they said. ‘Who gave you the authority to do them?’
29 Jesu dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Èmi yóò bi yín léèrè ọ̀rọ̀ kan, kí ẹ sì dá mi lóhùn, èmi yóò sọ fún yín àṣẹ tí èmi fi ń ṣe nǹkan wọ̀nyí.”
‘I will put one question to you,’ said Jesus. ‘Answer me that, and then I will tell you what authority I have to act as I do.
30 Ìtẹ̀bọmi Johanu láti ọ̀run wa ni, tàbí láti ọ̀dọ̀ ènìyàn? “Ẹ dá mi lóhùn!”
It is about John’s baptism. Was it of divine or human origin? Answer me that.’
31 Wọ́n bá ara wọn jíròrò pé, “Bí a bá wí pé, ‘Láti ọ̀run wá ni,’ òun ó wí pé, ‘Nígbà tí ẹ mọ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀, èéṣe tí ẹ kò fi gbà à gbọ́?’
They began arguing together. ‘If we say “divine,” he will say “Why then didn’t you believe him?”
32 Ṣùgbọ́n bí a bá wí pé, àti ọ̀dọ̀ ènìyàn, wọ́n bẹ̀rù àwọn ènìyàn, nítorí pé gbogbo ènìyàn ló gbàgbọ́ pé wòlíì gidi ni Johanu.”
Yet can we say “human”?’ They were afraid of the people, for everyone regarded John as undoubtedly a prophet.
33 Nítorí náà, wọ́n kọjú sí Jesu wọn sì dáhùn pé, “Àwa kò mọ̀.” Nígbà náà ni Jesu wí pé, “Níwọ́n ìgbà tí ẹ kò lè dáhùn ìbéèrè mi, Èmi náà kì yóò sọ fún yín àṣẹ tí mo fi ń ṣe nǹkan wọ̀nyí.”
So their answer to Jesus was – ‘We do not know.’ ‘Then I,’ replied Jesus, ‘refuse to tell you what authority I have to do these things.’
