< Matthew 15 >
1 Nígbà náà ní àwọn Farisi àti àwọn olùkọ́ òfin tọ Jesu wá láti Jerusalẹmu,
Then they come to Jesus from Jerusalem—scribes and Pharisees—saying,
2 wọn béèrè pé, “Èéṣe tí àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ fi ń rú òfin àtayébáyé àwọn alàgbà? Nítorí tí wọn kò wẹ ọwọ́ wọn kí wọ́n tó jẹun!”
“Why do Your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they may eat bread.”
3 Jesu sì dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Èéha ṣe tí ẹ̀yin fi rú òfin Ọlọ́run, nítorí àṣà yín?
And He answering said to them, “Why also do you transgress the command of God because of your tradition?
4 Nítorí Ọlọ́run wí pé, ‘Bọ̀wọ̀ fún Baba òun ìyá rẹ,’ àti pé, ‘Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá sọ ọ̀rọ̀-òdì sí baba tàbí ìyá rẹ̀, ní láti kú.’
For God commanded, saying, Honor your father and mother; and, He who is speaking evil of father or mother—let him die the death;
5 Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin wí pé, ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá wí fún baba tàbí ìyá rẹ̀ pé, ‘Ẹ̀bùn fún Ọlọ́run ni ohunkóhun tí ìwọ ìbá fi jèrè lára mi,’
but you say, Whoever may say to father or mother, An offering [is] whatever you may be profited by me—
6 tí Òun kò sì bọ̀wọ̀ fún baba tàbí ìyá rẹ̀, ó bọ́; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ̀yin sọ òfin Ọlọ́run di asán nípa àṣà yín.
and he may not honor his father or his mother, and you set aside the command of God because of your tradition.
7 Ẹ̀yin àgàbàgebè, ní òtítọ́ ni Wòlíì Isaiah sọtẹ́lẹ̀ nípa yín wí pé:
Hypocrites, Isaiah prophesied well of you, saying,
8 “‘Àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí ń fi ẹnu lásán bu ọlá fún mi, ṣùgbọ́n ọkàn wọn jìnnà réré sí mi.
This people draws near to Me with their mouth, and with the lips it honors Me, but their heart is far off from Me;
9 Lásán ni ìsìn wọn; nítorí pé wọ́n ń fi òfin ènìyàn kọ́ ni ní ẹ̀kọ́.’”
and in vain they worship Me, teaching teachings—commands of men.”
10 Jesu pe ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ, ó wí pé, “Ẹ tẹ́tí, ẹ sì jẹ́ kí nǹkan tí mo sọ yé yín.
And having called near the multitude, He said to them, “Hear and understand:
11 Ènìyàn kò di aláìmọ́ nípa ohun tí ó wọ ẹnu ènìyàn, ṣùgbọ́n èyí tí ó ti ẹnu jáde wá ni ó sọ ní di aláìmọ́.”
[it is] not that which is coming into the mouth [that] defiles the man, but that which is coming forth from the mouth, this defiles the man.”
12 Nígbà náà, àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ tọ̀ ọ́ wá, wọ́n wí fún un pé, “Ǹjẹ́ ìwọ mọ̀ pé inú bí àwọn Farisi lẹ́yìn tí wọ́n gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ tí ó sọ yìí?”
Then His disciples having come near, said to Him, “Have You known that the Pharisees, having heard the word, were stumbled?”
13 Jesu dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Gbogbo igi tí Baba mi ti ń bẹ ni ọ̀run kò bá gbìn ni á ó fàtu tigbòǹgbò tigbòǹgbò,
And He answering said, “Every plant that My heavenly Father did not plant will be rooted up;
14 ẹ fi wọ́n sílẹ̀; afọ́jú tí ń fi ọ̀nà han afọ́jú ni wọ́n. Bí afọ́jú bá sì ń fi ọ̀nà han afọ́jú, àwọn méjèèjì ni yóò jìn sí kòtò.”
leave them alone, they are guides—blind of blind; and if blind may guide blind, both will fall into a ditch.”
15 Peteru wí, “Ṣe àlàyé òwe yìí fún wa.”
And Peter answering said to Him, “Explain to us this allegory.”
16 Jesu béèrè lọ́wọ́ wọn pé, “Èéha ṣe tí ìwọ fi jẹ́ aláìmòye síbẹ̀”?
And Jesus said, “Are you also yet without understanding?
17 “Ẹyin kò mọ̀ pé ohunkóhun tí ó gba ẹnu wọlé, yóò gba ti ọ̀nà oúnjẹ lọ, a yóò sì yà á jáde?
Do you not understand that all that is going into the mouth passes into the belly, and is cast forth into the drain?
18 Ṣùgbọ́n ohun tí a ń sọ jáde láti ẹnu, inú ọkàn ni ó ti ń wá, èyí sì ni ó ń sọ ènìyàn di aláìmọ́.
But the things coming forth from the mouth come forth from the heart, and these defile the man;
19 Ṣùgbọ́n láti ọkàn ni èrò búburú ti wá, bí ìpànìyàn, panṣágà, àgbèrè, olè jíjà, irọ́ àti ọ̀rọ̀ ìbàjẹ́.
for out of the heart come forth evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, whoredoms, thefts, false witnessings, slanders:
20 Àwọn tí a dárúkọ wọ̀nyí ni ó ń sọ ènìyàn di aláìmọ́. Ṣùgbọ́n láti jẹun láì wẹ ọwọ́, kò lè sọ ènìyàn di aláìmọ́.”
these are the things defiling the man; but to eat with unwashed hands does not defile the man.”
21 Jesu sì ti ibẹ̀ kúrò lọ sí Tire àti Sidoni.
And Jesus having come forth from there, withdrew to the parts of Tyre and Sidon,
22 Obìnrin kan láti Kenaani, tí ó ń gbé ibẹ̀ wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀. Ó ń bẹ̀bẹ̀, ó sì kígbe pé, “Olúwa, ọmọ Dafidi, ṣàánú fún mi; ọmọbìnrin mi ní ẹ̀mí èṣù ti ń dá a lóró gidigidi.”
and behold, a woman, a Canaanite, having come forth from those borders, called to Him, saying, “Deal kindly with me, Lord, Son of David; my daughter is miserably demonized.”
23 Ṣùgbọ́n Jesu kò fún un ní ìdáhùn, àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ sì gbà á níyànjú pé, “Lé obìnrin náà lọ, nítorí ó ń kígbe tọ̀ wá lẹ́yìn.”
And He did not answer her a word; and His disciples having come to Him, were asking Him, saying, “Let her away, because she cries after us”;
24 Ó dáhùn pé, “Àgùntàn ilẹ̀ Israẹli tí ó nù nìkan ni a rán mi sí.”
and He answering said, “I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
25 Obìnrin náà wá, ó wólẹ̀ níwájú rẹ̀, ó bẹ̀bẹ̀ sí i pé, “Olúwa ṣàánú fún mi.”
And having come, she was worshiping Him, saying, “Lord, help me”;
26 Ó sì dáhùn wí pé, “Kò tọ́ kí a gbé oúnjẹ àwọn ọmọ fún àwọn ajá.”
and He answering said, “It is not good to take the children’s bread, and to cast to the little dogs.”
27 Obìnrin náà sì wí pé, “Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, síbẹ̀síbẹ̀ àwọn ajá a máa jẹ èrúnrún tí ó ti orí tábìlì olówó wọn bọ́ sílẹ̀.”
And she said, “Yes, Lord, for even the little dogs eat of the crumbs that are falling from their lords’ table”;
28 Jesu sì sọ fún obìnrin náà pé, “Ìgbàgbọ́ ńlá ni tìrẹ! A sì ti dáhùn ìbéèrè rẹ.” A sì mú ọmọbìnrin rẹ̀ láradá ní wákàtí kan náà.
then answering, Jesus said to her, “O woman, great [is] your faith, let it be to you as you will”; and her daughter was healed from that hour.
29 Jesu ti ibẹ̀ lọ sí Òkun Galili. Ó gun orí òkè, o sì jókòó níbẹ̀.
And having departed from there, Jesus came near to the Sea of Galilee, and having gone up to the mountain, He was sitting there,
30 Ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn ènìyàn sì tọ̀ ọ́ wá, àti àwọn arọ, afọ́jú, amúnkùn ún, odi àti ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn aláìsàn mìíràn. Wọ́n gbé wọn kalẹ̀ lẹ́sẹ̀ Jesu. Òun sì mú gbogbo wọn láradá.
and there came to Him great multitudes, having with them lame, blind, mute, maimed, and many others, and they cast them at the feet of Jesus, and He healed them,
31 Ẹnu ya ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn nígbà tí wọ́n rí àwọn odi tó ń sọ̀rọ̀, amúnkùn ún tó di alára pípé, arọ tí ó ń rìn àti àwọn afọ́jú tí ó ríran. Wọ́n sì ń fi ìyìn fún Ọlọ́run Israẹli.
so that the multitudes wondered, seeing mute ones speaking, maimed whole, lame walking, and blind seeing; and they glorified the God of Israel.
32 Jesu pe àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ sọ́dọ̀, ó wí pé, “Àánú àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí ṣe mí; nítorí wọ́n ti wà níhìn-ín pẹ̀lú mi fún ọjọ́ mẹ́ta gbáko báyìí. Wọn kò sì tún ní oúnjẹ mọ́. Èmi kò fẹ́ kí wọn padà lébi, nítorí òyì lè kọ́ wọn lójú ọ̀nà.”
And Jesus having called near His disciples, said, “I have compassion on the multitude, because now three days they continue with Me, and they do not have what they may eat; and to let them away fasting I will not, lest they faint in the way.”
33 Àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn sì dá a lóhùn pé, “Níbo ni àwa yóò ti rí oúnjẹ ní ijù níhìn-ín yìí láti fi bọ́ ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn yìí?”
And His disciples say to Him, “From where to us in a wilderness [will we get] so many loaves, as to fill so great a multitude?”
34 Jesu sì béèrè pé, “Ìṣù àkàrà mélòó ni ẹ̀yin ní?” Wọ́n sì dáhùn pé, “Àwa ní ìṣù àkàrà méje pẹ̀lú àwọn ẹja wẹ́wẹ́ díẹ̀.”
And Jesus says to them, “How many loaves do you have?” And they said, “Seven, and a few little fishes.”
35 Jesu sì sọ fún gbogbo ènìyàn kí wọn jókòó lórí ilẹ̀.
And He commanded the multitudes to sit down on the ground,
36 Òun sì mú ìṣù àkàrà méje náà àti ẹja náà. Ó sì fi ọpẹ́ fún Ọlọ́run, ó bù wọ́n sì wẹ́wẹ́, ó sì fi wọ́n fún àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀. Wọ́n sì pín in fún àwọn ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn náà.
and having taken the seven loaves and the fishes, having given thanks, He broke, and gave to His disciples, and the disciples [gave] to the multitude.
37 Gbogbo wọn jẹ, wọ́n sì yó. Lẹ́yìn náà, àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn sì ṣa èyí tókù, ẹ̀kún agbọ̀n méje ni èyí tó ṣẹ́kù jẹ́.
And they all ate, and were filled, and they took up what was over of the broken pieces seven baskets full,
38 Gbogbo wọn sì jẹ́ ẹgbàajì ọkùnrin láì kan àwọn obìnrin àti ọmọdé.
and those eating were four thousand men, apart from women and children.
39 Lẹ́yìn náà, Jesu rán àwọn ènìyàn náà lọ sí ilé wọn, ó sì bọ́ sínú ọkọ̀, ó rékọjá lọ sí ẹkùn Magadani.
And having let away the multitudes, He went into the boat, and came to the borders of Magdala.
