< Mark 7 >
1 Àwọn Farisi sì péjọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀, àti àwọn kan nínú àwọn akọ̀wé, tí ó wá láti Jerusalẹmu,
Now the Pharisees and some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem were gathered around Jesus.
2 wọ́n sì ṣe àkíyèsí wí pé díẹ̀ nínú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn Jesu ń fi ọwọ́ àìmọ́ jẹun, èyí yìí ni wẹ ọwọ́.
When they saw some of his disciples eating bread with hands that were defiled (that is, unwashed), they criticized them.
3 (Àwọn Farisi, àti gbogbo àwọn Júù, bí wọ́n kò bá wẹ ọwọ́ wọn gidigidi, wọn kì í jẹun nítorí wọ́n ti pa òfin àtọwọ́dọ́wọ́ àwọn àgbà mọ́.
(For none of the Pharisees or Jews eat unless they wash their hands properly, holding to the tradition of the elders.
4 Nígbà tí wọ́n bá sì ti ọjà dé sílé, wọn kò gbọdọ̀ fi ọwọ́ kan oúnjẹ àfi tí wọ́n bá bu omi wẹ ara wọn. Èyí sì jẹ́ ọ̀kan nínú ogunlọ́gọ̀ àpẹẹrẹ òfin àti ìlànà tí wọ́n ti dì mú fún ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ọdún sẹ́yìn, bí i fífọ kọ́ọ̀bù, àwọn ìkòkò, àti kẹ́tù.)
And when they come from the marketplace, they do not eat unless they have washed. There are also many other traditions they observe, such as the washing of cups, pots, copper vessels, and dining couches.)
5 Nítorí èyí àwọn Farisi àti àwọn olùkọ́ òfin béèrè lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀ pé, “Èéṣe tí àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ kò tẹ̀lé àwọn òfin àtọwọ́dọ́wọ́ àwọn àgbà nítorí wọ́n fi ọwọ́ àìmọ́ jẹun?”
Now the Pharisees and the scribes asked Jesus, “Why do yoʋr disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashed hands?”
6 Jesu dá wọn lóhùn wí pé, “Ẹyin àgàbàgebè yìí, òtítọ́ ni wòlíì Isaiah ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀ nípa tí ẹ̀yin àgàbàgebè, bí a ti kọ ọ́ pé: “‘Àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí fi ẹnu wọn bu ọlá fún mi ṣùgbọ́n ọkàn wọn jìnà sí mi.
He answered them, “Isaiah prophesied rightly about you hypocrites, as it is written, ‘This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
7 Ìsìn wọn jẹ́ lásán, ìkọ́ni wọ́n jẹ́ kìkìdá òfin tí àwọn ènìyàn fi ń kọ́ni.’
They worship me in vain, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’
8 Nítorí tí ẹ̀yin fi òfin Ọlọ́run sí apá kan, ẹ̀yin ń tẹ̀lé àṣà àwọn ènìyàn.”
For you have neglected the commandment of God and are holding to the tradition of men, such as various washings of pots and cups. And you do many other similar things such as these.”
9 Ó si wí fún wọn: “Ẹ̀yin sá à mọ̀ bí ẹ ti ń gbé òfin Ọlọ́run jù sẹ́yìn kí ẹ lè mú òfin tiyín ṣẹ.
Then he said to them, “You have a fine way of setting aside the commandment of God so that you may keep your tradition!
10 Mose fún un yín ní òfin yìí láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run pé, ‘Bọ̀wọ̀ fún baba òun ìyá rẹ.’ Ó tún sọ pé, ‘Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá sọ̀rọ̀ aburú sí baba tàbí ìyá rẹ̀ ní láti kú ni.’
For Moses said, ‘Honor yoʋr father and yoʋr mother,’ and, ‘Whoever speaks evil of his father or mother must surely die.’
11 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin wá sọ pé ó dára bákan náà fún ọkùnrin kan bí kò bá tilẹ̀ pèsè fún àìní àwọn òbí rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n kí o sọ fún wọn pé, ‘Ẹ má ṣe bínú baba tàbí ìyá mi, n kò lè ràn yín lọ́wọ́ nísinsin yìí,’ nítorí tí mo ti fi ẹ̀bùn tí ǹ bá fi fún un yín fún Ọlọ́run.
But you teach that it is acceptable for a man to say to his father or mother, ‘Whatever benefit yoʋ might have received from me is Corban’” (that is, a gift devoted to God).
12 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ̀yin kò si jẹ́ kí ó ṣe ohunkóhun fún baba tàbí ìyá rẹ̀ mọ́.
“In this way you no longer permit him to do anything for his father or his mother,
13 Ẹ̀yin ń fi òfin àtọwọ́dọ́wọ́ tiyín tí ẹ fi lélẹ̀, sọ ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run di asán àti ọ̀pọ̀ irú nǹkan bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ̀yin ń ṣe.”
thus nullifying the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down. And you do many similar things such as these.”
14 Lẹ́yìn náà, Jesu pe ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn láti wá gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀. Ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Gbogbo yín ẹ tẹ́tí sílẹ̀ kí ẹ sì jẹ́ kí èyí ó yé e yín.
Then Jesus called over the entire crowd and said to them, “Listen to me, all of you, and understand:
15 Kò sí ohunkóhun láti òde ènìyàn, tí ó wọ inú rẹ̀ lọ, tí ó lè sọ ọ́ di aláìmọ́, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn nǹkan tí ó ti inú rẹ jáde, àwọn wọ̀nyí ní ń sọ ènìyàn di aláìmọ́.”
There is nothing outside of a person that can defile him by going into him, but the things that come out of a person are what defile him.
If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.”
17 Nígbà tí Jesu sì wọ inú ilé kan lọ, àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn tẹ̀lé é, wọ́n sì béèrè ìtumọ̀ àwọn òwe tí ó pa.
After Jesus had left the crowd and gone into a house, his disciples asked him about the parable.
18 Jesu béèrè wí pé, “Àbí kò sí èyí tí ó yé yín nínú ọ̀rọ̀ náà? Ẹ̀yin kò rí i wí pé ohunkóhun tí ó wọ inú ènìyàn láti òde kò lè sọ ènìyàn di aláìmọ́?
He said to them, “So are you also without understanding? Do you not understand that whatever goes into a person from the outside cannot defile him?
19 Nítorí tí kò lọ sínú ọkàn rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n sínú ara, a sì yà á jáde, a sì gbá gbogbo oúnjẹ dànù.” (Nípa sísọ èyí, Jesu fihàn pé gbogbo oúnjẹ jẹ́ “mímọ́.”)
For it does not go into his heart but into his stomach; then it goes out into the latrine, thus purifying all foods.”
20 Nígbà náà, ó fi kún un pé, “Èyí ti ó ti ọkàn ènìyàn jáde ni ń sọ ni di aláìmọ́.
He also said, “It is what comes out of a person that defiles a person.
21 Nítorí pé láti inú ọkàn ènìyàn ni àwọn èrò búburú wọ̀nyí ti ń jáde wá: àgbèrè, olè, ìpànìyàn, panṣágà,
For from within, from the hearts of men, come evil thoughts, adultery, fornication, murder,
22 ọ̀kánjúwà, odì yíyàn, ìtànjẹ, ìmọ-tara-ẹni, ìlara, ọ̀rọ̀ ẹ̀yìn, ìgbéraga, òmùgọ̀.
theft, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, sensuality, envy, slander, pride, and foolishness.
23 Gbogbo àwọn nǹkan búburú wọ̀nyí ń tí inú wá, àwọn ló sì ń sọ yín di aláìmọ́.”
All these evil things come from within and defile a person.”
24 Nígbà náà ni Jesu kúrò ní Galili, ó sí lọ sí agbègbè Tire àti Sidoni, ó sì gbìyànjú láti nìkan wà pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ fún àkókò díẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n eléyìí kò ṣe é ṣe, nítorí pé kò pẹ́ púpọ̀ tí ó wọ ìlú nígbà tí ìròyìn dídé rẹ̀ tàn káàkiri.
Then Jesus rose from there and went away to the region of Tyre and Sidon. He went into a house and did not want anyone to know it, yet he could not escape notice.
25 Láìpẹ́, obìnrin kan tí ọmọbìnrin rẹ̀ ní ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ tọ̀ ọ́ wá, ó ti gbọ́ nípa Jesu, ó wá, ó sì wólẹ̀ lẹ́sẹ̀ Jesu.
For a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit heard about him and came and fell at his feet.
26 Giriki ní obìnrin náà, Siro-Fonisia ní orílẹ̀-èdè rẹ̀. Ó bẹ Jesu kí ó bá òun lé ẹ̀mí èṣù náà jáde lára ọmọbìnrin òun.
(This woman was a Greek, a Syrophoenician by birth.) She asked Jesus to cast the demon out of her daughter.
27 Jesu sọ fún obìnrin yìí pé, “Ní àkọ́kọ́, ó yẹ kí a fi oúnjẹ tẹ́ àwọn ọmọ lọ́rùn ná. Nítorí kò tọ́ kí a mú oúnjẹ àwọn ọmọ fún àwọn ajá.”
But Jesus said to her, “Let the children first be filled, for it is not good to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs.”
28 Obìnrin náà dáhùn wí pé, “Òótọ́ ni ọ̀rọ̀ yín Olúwa, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọmọ ajá pàápàá a máa ní àǹfààní láti jẹ èérún oúnjẹ tí ó bá bọ́ sílẹ̀ láti orí tábìlì.”
She answered him, “Yes, Lord, yet even the dogs under the table eat the children's crumbs.”
29 “Ó sì wí fún un pé, nítorí ọ̀rọ̀ yìí, máa lọ, ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ náà ti jáde kúrò lára ọmọbìnrin rẹ.”
Then he said to her, “Because of this reply, yoʋ may go; the demon has come out of yoʋr daughter.”
30 Nígbà tí ó padà dé ilé, ó bá ọmọbìnrin rẹ̀ ní ìdùbúlẹ̀ jẹ́jẹ́ lórí ibùsùn, ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ náà ti fi í sílẹ̀.
And when she went to her house, she found the demon gone and her daughter lying in bed.
31 Nígbà náà ni Jesu fi agbègbè Tire àti Sidoni sílẹ̀, ó wá si Òkun Galili láàrín agbègbè Dekapoli.
Then Jesus came back from the region of Tyre and Sidon and went to the Sea of Galilee, within the region of the Decapolis.
32 Níbẹ̀ ọkùnrin kan tí kò lè sọ̀rọ̀ wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ Jesu, àwọn ènìyàn sì bẹ Jesu pé kí ó gbé ọwọ́ rẹ̀ lé e.
Some people brought to him a deaf man who had a speech impediment, and they begged him to lay his hand on the man.
33 Jesu sì mú ọkùnrin náà kúrò láàrín ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn. Ó sì fi àwọn ìka rẹ̀ sí etí ọkùnrin náà, ó tu itọ́ ṣọ́wọ́. Ó sì fi kan ahọ́n rẹ̀.
So Jesus took him aside privately, away from the crowd. Then he put his fingers into the man's ears, spit, and touched the man's tongue.
34 Nígbà náà ni Jesu wòkè ọ̀run, ó sì mí kanlẹ̀, ó sì pàṣẹ wí pé, “Efata!” (èyí ni, “Ìwọ ṣí!”).
And looking up to heaven, he sighed and said to him, “Ephphatha” (that is, “Be opened”).
35 Lójúkan náà, etí rẹ̀ sì ṣí, okùn ahọ́n rẹ̀ sì tú, ó sì ń sọ̀rọ̀ ketekete.
Immediately the man's ears were opened, the impediment of his tongue was removed, and he began speaking clearly.
36 Jesu pàṣẹ fún ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn tó wà níbẹ̀ pé kí wọn má ṣe tan ìròyìn náà ká. Ṣùgbọ́n bí ó ti ń pa wọ́n lẹ́nu mọ́ tó, náà ni wọ́n ń tan ìròyìn náà káàkiri tó.
Then Jesus ordered them not to tell anyone. But as much as he ordered them not to do so, they proclaimed it all the more.
37 Àwọn ènìyàn sì kún fún ìyanu, wọ́n wí pé, “Ó ṣe ohun gbogbo dáradára, Ó mú kí adití gbọ́rọ̀, odi sì sọ̀rọ̀.”
And they were completely astonished, saying, “He has done all things well. He even makes the deaf hear and the mute speak.”
