Matthew 14 (GEL)

1U̱ da-u o̱, Here̱ Antipas Faru̱k ho̱ge̱ u̱zu̱ Ye̱so̱ o̱ no̱m-du̱ no̱m-tu̱ m-shin.At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the reports about Jesus

2Se̱ wa zu̱ to̱k-ne̱ bu-u wa, <<Unwa o̱ Yohanna wa-u̱t-yu̱bu̱sse̱ m-bu̱ wa yu̱ne̱ du̱gu̱ marimari-ne̱ de̱ wu̱te̱ wa kerte̱ no̱m-du̱ no̱m-tu̱ m-shin tun-to̱.>>and said to his servants, “This is John the Baptist; he has risen from the dead! That is why miraculous powers are at work in him.”

3No̱m-u̱ wu̱te̱ Here̱ no̱m-u̱t dorog-u̱s se̱: Here̱ gaag Herodiya ne̱ta hu̱u̱b u̱r-matu̱ wa Firibi, u̱ Firibus ne̱ u̱r-fat. De̱ wu̱te̱ Yohanna o̱gu̱ waru̱ wu̱n u̱zu̱, <<No̱m-u̱ bo̱ no̱me̱ bo̱ gu̱ ne̱ta hu̱no-u ró u̱ wane̱ u̱r-fat, bo̱ paku̱s bo̱r-tu̱ u-Ru̱.>> Remu̱ Here̱ mangte̱ jab-u̱ Herodiya, wa waru̱ karma-ne̱ e̱ maas Yohanna, e̱ gag wa u̱ ho-su̱ kwam, e̱ gun wa u̱-me̱ bu-u m-to̱k.Now Herod had arrested John and bound him and put him in prison on account of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife,

5Here̱ cwang wa ho̱ Yohanna, se̱di wa o̱ u-gye̱r u̱t-ne̱t remu̱ zu̱ e̱ kabu̱g wu̱n wa-warru̱ rem-su̱ u-Ru̱.Although Herod wanted to kill John, he was afraid of the people, because they regarded John as a prophet.

6U̱ ho̱-du̱ bak-su̱ ho̱-du̱ u̱r-matu̱ Here̱, wa'-u̱ Herodiya no̱ngu̱ u̱n u̱s-he̱w sok har Here̱ ho̱k u̱r-zwar.On Herod’s birthday, however, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod

7Here̱ no̱m este̱du̱ u̱s-rem u̱s-to̱nd ne̱ u̱zu̱ wa ya' wu̱n ko-uyan u̱ wa u̱t-sa.so much that he promised with an oath to give to her whatever she asked.

8Ino-u rò yu̱ wu̱n u̱s-rem u̱ no̱m-u̱ u do̱'e̱ u̱t-ko̱n u̱zu̱, <<U̱m u̱t-sa hi-u̱r Yohanna wa yu̱bu̱sse̱ m-bu̱ u̱-me̱ u-ko̱k.>>Prompted by her mother, she said, “Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist.”

9Faru̱k ho̱k u̱r-zwar da, se̱di ba shu̱'u̱te̱ u̱zu̱ wa no̱ng este̱du̱ u̱s-rem u̱s-to̱nd ne̱, tu̱msu̱ remu̱ ham-u̱t tu̱ o̱ u̱ku̱n ne̱, se̱ wa zu̱ karma-ne̱ e̱ yasu̱ no̱mu̱ wa ko̱ne̱.The king was grieved, but because of his oaths and his guests, he ordered that her wish be granted

10Wa tom m-ha bu-u̱ m-to̱k u̱zu̱ na kwu̱pu̱n hi-u̱r Yohanna.and sent to have John beheaded in the prison.

11Na hatu̱n hi-u̱r Yohanna u̱-me̱ u-ko̱k na yasu̱ wa'-u̱-gwu̱p, wa ku̱b m-ha u̱du̱ ino-u wa.John’s head was brought in on a platter and presented to the girl, who carried it to her mother.

12A-doru̱ Yohanna haan e̱ ku̱b birig-du̱ u-war e̱ dok. E̱ do̱'e̱ e̱ waru̱ Ye̱so̱.Then John’s disciples came and took his body and buried it. And they went and informed Jesus.

13Da-u̱ Ye̱so̱ ho̱ge̱ u̱zu̱ Here̱ wa'ag karma e̱ ho̱o̱g Yohanna, se̱ wa to u-hat m-ha u̱ de̱ku̱n be-de̱ du̱ za u̱t-ne̱t remu̱ wa shu̱'u̱t wa u-gan u̱ku̱n. Da-u̱ ne̱t-tu̱ ho̱ge̱ iya, e̱ rwu̱n du̱gu̱ u̱t-bo̱, e̱ dor wu̱n u̱s-na.When Jesus heard about John, He withdrew by boat privately to a solitary place. But the crowds found out about it and followed Him on foot from the towns.

14Da-u̱ Ye̱so̱ ruye̱ u̱-me̱ u-hat, se̱ wa hyen u̱t-ne̱t to̱ mo̱ro̱gte̱ u-tát. Wa hog u̱r-o̱n wa hast a-ko̱b-du̱ m-yar ne̱ u̱s-go̱m i o̱ u̱ku̱n.When He stepped ashore and saw a large crowd, He had compassion on them and healed their sick.

15Da-u̱ rim-mu̱ tore̱, a-doru̱ Ye̱so̱ e̱ zu̱ wu̱n, <<In o̱ u̱-me̱ be-du̱ zatte̱ u̱t-ne̱t da, yage̱ u̱t-ne̱t e̱ cwa u̱-me̱ u̱t-taas e̱ kum-u̱t no̱m u̱t-re̱ e̱ o̱.>>When evening came, the disciples came to Him and said, “This is a desolate place, and the hour is already late. Dismiss the crowds so they can go to the villages and buy themselves some food.”

16Ye̱so̱ zu̱ u̱n, <<Kamu̱g u̱zu̱ se̱ u̱n haag u̱ aku̱n da. No̱ ya' u̱n no̱m u̱t-re̱ u̱n re̱.>>“They do not need to go away,” Jesus replied. “You give them something to eat.”

17Se̱ e̱ zu̱ wu̱n, <<It zatte̱ o̱ko̱n u̱ ane̱ da, be̱re̱di-to̱ u̱t-tan u̱ jan ne̱ u̱t-yu̱r.>>“We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered.

18Ye̱so̱ zu̱ u̱n, <<Hatu̱n to̱ u̱ ane̱.>>“Bring them here to Me,” Jesus said.

19Se̱ wa zu̱ u̱n zu̱u̱n ne̱t-tu̱ shu̱'u̱t u̱ do̱m u̱s-gwa. Wa ku̱b be̱re̱di-u̱t to̱ u̱t-tan u̱ jan yu̱r, wa jaku̱s u̱r-hi u̱ do̱m u-ru̱, wa no̱mu̱ u-Ru̱ u̱t-vam. Wa mo̱t be̱re̱di-u̱t to̱ wa yasu̱ a-doru̱, tu̱msu̱ a-dor wa mo̱tu̱ ban-du̱ u̱t-ne̱t.And He directed the crowds to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, He spoke a blessing. Then He broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.

20Kowan re, wa shig, a-doru̱ wa kargu̱sse̱ no̱m u̱t-re̱ kuse̱ ko̱o̱r-u̱t yatto̱ o̱p-u̱t yu̱r.They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.

21Tat-u̱ ne̱t-tu̱ re̱ no̱m u̱t-re̱ o̱, ne̱t-to̱ campa-ne̱ u̱t-zo̱ngu u̱t-tan 5,000, a-dor ogorte̱ ne̱ta-ne̱ u̱ ya'ag ne̱ i re̱ no̱m u̱t-re̱ o̱ da.About five thousand men were fed, besides women and children.

22Da-u̱ u̱n tase̱ Ye̱so̱ zu̱ a-dor e̱ cwa u̱-me̱ u-hat, e̱ do̱'e̱ u̱ din-de̱ jit gwu̱g-de̱. Wa hen wa ees kanda ne̱t-tu̱ aru̱k.Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to the other side, while He dismissed the crowds.

23Da-u̱ wa yu̱nse̱ u̱t-ne̱t, wa du̱ do̱m u̱r-ro̱r remu̱ wa no̱m-u̱t u̱s-to̱o̱g. Rim-mu̱ tor wu̱n u̱ku̱n wu̱n u-gan.After He had dismissed them, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. When evening came, He was there alone,

24U̱ da-u o̱ hen hat-yu̱ o̱ te̱k m-sa, ya ragu̱n u-dak ne̱, tu̱msu̱ jwak m-bu̱ o̱ gab-du̱ m-mya tu̱msu̱ mya-mu̱ no̱ng u-tát.but the boat was already far from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it.

25U̱ka u̱s-kwam u̱s-tu̱t su̱ u̱r-wu̱n, Ye̱so̱ yu̱ne̱ wa o̱ jang m-bu̱ u̱-me̱ m-sa m-ha u̱du̱ a-doru̱ wa.During the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went out to them, walking on the sea.

26Da-u̱ a-dor hyanu̱ wu̱n m-ha u̱-me̱ m-sa, e̱ hog u-gye̱r, e̱ zu̱, <<No̱m-tu̱ m-bu̱ to̱!>> E̱ no̱m u̱t-jar u̱ remu̱ u-gye̱r.When the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost!” they said, and cried out in fear.

27Za rem Ye̱so̱ zu̱ u̱n, <<No̱mo̱n be̱b-du̱ jab, tu̱msu̱ a no̱ ho̱g u-gye̱r da, me̱ wa Ye̱so̱.>>But Jesus spoke up at once: “Take courage! It is I. Do not be afraid.”

28Biturus zu̱, <<Wa-m-nap, abite̱ bo̱ wa, zu̱ me̱ u̱m jangu̱n u̱ haan u̱du̱ ró u̱ do̱m m-bu̱.>>“Lord, if it is You,” Peter replied, “command me to come to You on the water.”

29Ye̱so̱ zu̱, <<Jangu̱n.>> Biturus ru̱ du̱gu̱ me̱ u-hat, wa hu̱ m-ha u̱ do̱m m-bu̱ m-ha u̱du̱ Ye̱so̱.“Come,” said Jesus. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water, and came toward Jesus.

30Da-u̱ wa hyane̱ m-mya, wa hog u-gye̱r wa he̱e̱se̱ u̱t-iis, se̱ wa no̱m u̱t-jar, <<Wa-m-nap! Gu me̱!>>But when he saw the strength of the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!”

31Za rem Ye̱so̱ nu̱b u-kom wa ship wu̱n. Wa zu̱, <<Bo̱ wa yadu̱ jab cashi, ¿remu̱ yan-o̱ bo̱ no̱m-te̱ u-sakna?>>Immediately Jesus reached out His hand and took hold of Peter. “You of little faith,” He said, “why did you doubt?”

32Da-u̱ Ye̱so̱ e̱ Biturus cwa u̱-me̱ u-hat, mya-mu̱ ho u̱s-ram te̱k.And when they had climbed back into the boat, the wind died down.

33Ne̱t-tu̱ o̱ u̱-me̱ u-hat e̱ no̱mu̱ Ye̱so̱ u̱t-huuk, e̱ zu̱, <<Nip-to̱ bo̱ Wa'-u̱ u-Ru̱ wa!>>Then those who were in the boat worshiped Him, saying, “Truly You are the Son of God!”

34Da-u̱ e̱ pase̱ m-sa, e̱ ciz u̱ dak-u̱ Janisarata.When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret.

35Da-u̱ ne̱t-tu̱ bo̱-u o̱ nape̱ u̱zu̱ Ye̱so̱ wa, e̱ tom na waru̱ kowan wu̱ o̱tte̱ wa-ko̱b-du̱ m-yar u̱-me̱ dak-u o̱ e̱ haan u̱ Ye̱so̱ ya u̱n m-yar.And when the men of that place recognized Jesus, they sent word to all the surrounding region. People brought all the sick to Him

36E̱ kon Ye̱so̱ u̱zu̱, wa yage̱ a-ko̱b-du̱ m-yar ne̱ e̱ tam ko̱ nu-du̱ to̱ggo̱-u rò. Tu̱msu̱ ne̱t-ne̱ be̱e̱t i tame̱ wu̱n e̱ kwu̱ng m-yar.and begged Him just to let them touch the fringe of His cloak. And all who touched Him were healed.
