< Matthew 14 >

1 Ní àkókò náà ni Herodu ọba tetrarki gbọ́ nípa òkìkí Jesu,
At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the report of Jesus,
2 ó wí fún àwọn ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ pé, “Dájúdájú Johanu onítẹ̀bọmi ni èyí, ó jíǹde kúrò nínú òkú. Ìdí nìyí tí ó fi ní agbára láti ṣiṣẹ́ ìyanu wọ̀nyí.”
and he said to his boys, This is John the immerser. He has risen from the dead, and because of this the powers work in him.
3 Nísinsin yìí Herodu ti mú Johanu, ó fi ẹ̀wọ̀n dè é, ó sì fi sínú túbú, nítorí Herodia aya Filipi arákùnrin rẹ̀,
For Herod having arrested John, bound him and put him in prison because of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife.
4 nítorí Johanu onítẹ̀bọmi ti sọ fún Herodu pé, “Kò yẹ fún ọ láti fẹ́ obìnrin náà.”
For John said to him, It is not permitted for thee to have her.
5 Herodu fẹ́ pa Johanu, ṣùgbọ́n ó bẹ̀rù àwọn ènìyàn nítorí gbogbo ènìyàn gbàgbọ́ pé wòlíì ni.
And though he wanted to kill him, he feared the multitude because they held him as a prophet.
6 Ní ọjọ́ àsè ìrántí ọjọ́ ìbí Herodu, ọmọ Herodia obìnrin jó dáradára, ó sì tẹ́ Herodu lọ́run gidigidi.
But Herod's birthday being brought, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst, and pleased Herod.
7 Nítorí náà ni ó ṣe fi ìbúra ṣe ìlérí láti fún un ní ohunkóhun ti ó bá béèrè fún.
Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatever she would ask.
8 Pẹ̀lú ìmọ̀ràn láti ọ̀dọ̀ ìyá rẹ̀, ó béèrè pé, “Fún mi ni orí Johanu onítẹ̀bọmi nínú àwopọ̀kọ́”.
And she, having been put forward by her mother, says, Give me here on a platter the head of John the immerser.
9 Inú ọba bàjẹ́ gidigidi, ṣùgbọ́n nítorí ìbúra rẹ̀ àti kí ojú má ba à tì í níwájú àwọn àlejò tó wà ba jẹ àsè, ó pàṣẹ pé kí wọ́n fún un gẹ́gẹ́ bí o ti fẹ́.
And he became sad, but because of the oaths, and of those dining together, the king commanded it to be given.
10 Nítorí náà, a bẹ́ orí Johanu onítẹ̀bọmi nínú ilé túbú.
And having sent, he beheaded John in the prison.
11 A sì gbé orí rẹ̀ jáde láti fi fún ọmọbìnrin náà nínú àwopọ̀kọ́, òun sì gbà á, ó gbé e tọ ìyá rẹ̀ lọ.
And his head was brought on a platter, and given to the maiden, and she brought it to her mother.
12 Lẹ́yìn náà, àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn Johanu wá gba òkú rẹ̀, wọ́n sì sin ín. Wọ́n sì wá sọ ohun tí ó ṣẹlẹ̀ fún Jesu.
And after coming, his disciples took up the body and buried it, and having gone, they informed Jesus.
13 Nígbà tí Jesu gbọ́ ìròyìn ìṣẹ̀lẹ̀ náà, ó kúrò níbẹ̀, ó bá ọkọ̀ ojú omi lọ sí ibi kọ́lọ́fín kan ní èbúté láti dá wà níbẹ̀. Nígbà tí wọ́n gbọ́ èyí, ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn sì fi ẹsẹ̀ rìn tẹ̀lé e láti ọ̀pọ̀ ìlú wọn.
Now when Jesus heard it, he departed from there in a boat into a desolate place in private. And when the multitudes heard of it, they followed him on foot from the cities.
14 Nígbà ti Jesu gúnlẹ̀, tí ó sì rí ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ènìyàn, inú rẹ̀ yọ́ sí wọn, ó sì mú àwọn aláìsàn láradá.
And having come forth, Jesus saw a great multitude, and he felt compassion toward them, and healed the feeble of them.
15 Nígbà ti ilẹ̀ ń ṣú lọ, àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ tọ̀ ọ́ wá, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Ibi yìí jìnnà sí ìlú ilẹ̀ sì ń ṣú lọ. Rán àwọn ènìyàn lọ sí àwọn ìletò kí wọ́n lè ra oúnjẹ jẹ.”
And having become evening, his disciples came to him, saying, The place is desolate, and the hour is now past. Send the multitudes away, so that having gone into the villages, they may buy food for themselves.
16 Ṣùgbọ́n Jesu fèsì pé, “Kò nílò kí wọ́n lọ kúrò. Ẹ fún wọn ní oúnjẹ.”
But Jesus said to them, They have no need to depart. Give ye them to eat.
17 Wọ́n sì dalóhùn pé, “Àwa kò ní ju ìṣù àkàrà márùn-ún àti ẹja méjì lọ níhìn-ín.”
And they say to him, We have not here, except five loaves and two fishes.
18 Ó wí pé, “Ẹ mú wọn wá fún mi níhìn-ín yìí.”
But he said, Bring them here to me.
19 Lẹ́yìn náà, ó wí fún àwọn ènìyàn kí wọ́n jókòó lórí koríko. Lẹ́yìn náà, ó mú ìṣù àkàrà márùn-ún àti ẹja méjì. Ó gbé ojú rẹ̀ sí ọ̀run. Ó béèrè ìbùkún Ọlọ́run lórí oúnjẹ náà, Ó sì bù ú, ó sì fi àkàrà náà fún àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn láti pín in fún àwọn ènìyàn.
And after commanding the multitudes to sit down on the grass, having taken the five loaves, and the two fishes, having looking up to heaven, he blessed. And having broken them in pieces, he gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes.
20 Gbogbo wọn sì jẹ àjẹyó. Lẹ́yìn náà àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn kó àjẹkù jọ, ó kún agbọ̀n méjìlá.
And they all ate, and were filled. And they took up that which remained of the fragments, twelve baskets full.
21 Iye àwọn ènìyàn ni ọjọ́ náà jẹ́ ẹgbẹ̀rún márùn-ún ọkùnrin, láìka àwọn obìnrin àti àwọn ọmọdé.
And those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children.
22 Lẹ́sẹ̀kẹsẹ̀ lẹ́yìn èyí, Jesu wí fún àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ kí wọ́n bọ sínú ọkọ̀ wọn, àti kí wọ́n máa kọjá lọ ṣáájú rẹ̀ sí òdìkejì. Òun náà dúró lẹ́yìn láti tú àwọn ènìyàn ká lọ sí ilé wọn.
And straightaway Jesus compelled the disciples to enter into the boat, and to go ahead of him to the other side, until he would dismiss the multitudes.
23 Lẹ́yìn tí ó tú ìjọ ènìyàn ká tán, ó gun orí òkè lọ fúnra rẹ̀ láti lọ gba àdúrà. Nígbà tí ilẹ̀ ṣú, òun wà nìkan níbẹ̀,
And having dismissed the multitudes, he went up onto the mountain in private to pray. And having become evening, he was there alone.
24 ní àkókò yìí ọkọ̀ ojú omi náà ti rin jìnnà sí etí bèbè Òkun, tí ìjì omi ń tì í síwá sẹ́yìn, nítorí ìjì ṣe ọwọ́ òdì sí wọn.
But the boat was now in the midst of the sea, being buffeted by the waves, for the wind was contrary.
25 Ní déédé ago mẹ́rin òwúrọ̀, Jesu tọ̀ wọ́n wá, ó ń rìn lórí omi.
And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking upon the sea.
26 Nígbà tí àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rí i tí ó ń rìn lójú omi, ẹ̀rù ba wọn gidigidi, wọ́n rò pé “iwin ni,” wọ́n kígbe tìbẹ̀rù tìbẹ̀rù.
And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a ghost, and they cried out from fear.
27 Lójúkan náà, Jesu wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ mú ọkàn le! Èmi ni ẹ má ṣe bẹ̀rù.”
But straightaway Jesus spoke to them, saying, Cheer up. It is I, fear not.
28 Peteru sì ké sí i pé, “Olúwa, bí ó bá jẹ́ pé ìwọ ni nítòótọ́, sọ pé kí n tọ̀ ọ́ wà lórí omi.”
And having answered him, Peter said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come to thee on the waters.
29 Jesu dá a lóhùn pé, “Ó dára, máa bọ̀ wá.” Nígbà náà ni Peteru sọ̀kalẹ̀ láti inú ọkọ̀. Ó ń rìn lórí omi lọ sí ìhà ọ̀dọ̀ Jesu.
And he said, Come. And having come down from the boat, Peter walked upon the water to go to Jesus.
30 Nígbà tí ó rí afẹ́fẹ́ líle, ẹ̀rù bà á, ó sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í rì. Ó kígbe lóhùn rara pé, “Gbà mí, Olúwa.”
But seeing the boisterous wind, he was afraid, and having begun to sink, he cried out, saying, Lord, save me.
31 Lójúkan náà, Jesu na ọwọ́ rẹ̀, ó dìímú, ó sì gbà á. Ó sì wí fún un pé, “Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi ṣiyèméjì ìwọ onígbàgbọ́ kékeré?”
And straightaway having stretched forth his hand, Jesus took hold of him, and says to him, O thou of little faith, why did thou doubt?
32 Àti pé, nígbà ti wọ́n sì gòkè sínú ọkọ̀, ìjì náà sì dúró jẹ́ẹ́.
And when they entered into the boat, the wind ceased.
33 Nígbà náà ni àwọn to wà nínú ọkọ̀ náà foríbalẹ̀ fún un wọ́n wí pé, “Nítòótọ́ Ọmọ Ọlọ́run ni ìwọ í ṣe.”
And those who came in the boat worshiped him, saying, Thou really are the Son of God.
34 Nígbà tí wọn rékọjá sí apá kejì wọ́n gúnlẹ̀ sí Genesareti.
And when they crossed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret.
35 Nígbà tiwọn mọ̀ pé Jesu ni, wọn sì ránṣẹ́ sí gbogbo ìlú náà yíká. Wọ́n sì gbé gbogbo àwọn aláìsàn tọ̀ ọ́ wá.
And when they recognized him, the men of that place sent into that whole region round about, and brought to him all those faring badly.
36 Àwọn aláìsàn bẹ̀ ẹ́ pé kí ó gba àwọn láyè láti fi ọwọ́ kan ìṣẹ́tí aṣọ rẹ̀, gbogbo àwọn tí ó ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ sì rí ìwòsàn.
And they besought him that they might only touch the hem of his garment. And as many as touched were healed.
