Matthew 15 (GHN)

1Ego pa liguna aza za na koko veidi pa Jerusalema qari kamu ria kaki Parese beto ria qari varivagigalaini na Vavanau ko qari lao nanazia i Jisu, ari qari gua vei,Then some Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked,

2<<Ae za vei za ria na sepele tamu za qari majai na uana tututi tadiria na nada tite? Ura qarike loqa lima momoe mae beto qari tekuteku,>> qari gua.“Why do Your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They do not wash their hands before they eat.”

3Nari za oeria i Jisu, ari za gudi vei, <<Goto gamu za ae za vei ko gamu majai za na garunu tana Tamaza ko gamu tutia gu gamu na miu uana tututi makamiu?Jesus replied, “And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition?

4Ura za paranga za na Tamaza, <Mu valavatia na tamamu beto na tinamu,> za gua, beto ko, <Aza za poja vikevikeria na tamana beto na tinana za mina tavauke,> za gua.For God said, ‘Honor your father and mother’ and ‘Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.’

5Ba gamu za gamu paranga tu za vei maka tinoni bi parangia na tinana babi na tamana, ari biguni, <Na zakazava ani za pada ba boka tokanigo ao, ba qa tori valao vani tu na Tamaza ara,> bi gua,But you say that if anyone says to his father or mother, ‘Whatever you would have received from me is a gift devoted to God,’

6nari za <Minake kilu valavatia aza za na tinana na tamana ba leana gu,> gamu gua za gamu. Ko pa zona vei ani za gamu vakeporea gamu za na paranga tana Tamaza, ko gamu tutia gu gamu na miu uana tututi makamiu.he need not honor his father or mother with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition.

7Na tinoni jola vavabatamiu na sekesekemiu za gamu! Za zotonana gu za i Aisea tonai za ululeni na veveimiu gamu:You hypocrites! Isaiah prophesied correctly about you:

8<Ria na tinoni ari za qari valavataziu ara pa beruberu ngujudi gu, goto na bulodi za zou vitivitigi taqu.‘These people honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me.

9Na goborona gu za na dia vinatarazaequ ara, qari varivagigalaidi na varivagigalaidi na vinaturu tadiria na tinoni gu,> za gua,>> za gua i Jisu.They worship Me in vain; they teach as doctrine the precepts of men.’”

10Ego beto za kuku valameria i Jisu ria na minete tinoni, ko ari za gudi vei, <<Mu vainongoro ko mu vakoititia za aza vei mana pojai ara!Jesus called the crowd to Him and said, “Listen and understand.

11Nake aza za teku ponyolia pa ngujuna na tinoni za vapajia za na nana toa, goto ria tu na zakazava qari votu lame vei pa ngujuna za qari vapajia aza,>> za gua i Jisu.A man is not defiled by what enters his mouth, but by what comes out of it.”

12Beto za qari lame ti Jisu ria na nana sepele ko ari qari guni vei, <<Qu gilagilaimua tugu beka ao za qarike qerani ria na Parese ria vei qu pojaria ao?>> qari gua.Then the disciples came to Him and said, “Are You aware that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this?”

13Nari za oeria i Jisu, ari za gudi vei, <<Doru umuma zake umadi na Tamaqu pa noka za mari tasobulu gonagona pale beto.But Jesus replied, “Every plant that My heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by its roots.

14Ko muke pavu takulangadi ria. Ria na tinoni varitoka nake batabatadi ria. Ba vei na tinoni varitoka nake batabatana za mina titai za maka tinoni nake batabatana mutugu, za pala ari kori doru za mari makarai lotu beto pa maka oqili,>> za gua aza.Disregard them! They are blind guides. If a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.”

15Nari za oe lao i Pita, ari za guni vei, <<Mu vakabere valeania tadigami za na varivagigalai qu pojadi,>> za gua.Peter said to Him, “Explain this parable to us.”

16Nari ari za gua vei i Jisu, <<Ko gamu ba gamu korapa tugu rururamiu za?“Do you still not understand?” Jesus asked.

17Gamuke vakoinonoa tu gamu za na zakazava za gania pa ngujuna na tinoni za gore gu kole pa borina na tinoni beto za votu keninana gu?“Do you not yet realize that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then is eliminated?

18Goto ria tu qari votu vei pa nguju za na koko veidi pa bulo, ko ria tu za qari vapajia na toa tana tinoni.But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these things defile a man.

19Ura na koko lame veidi pa bulo ria na roquroqu ikikeredi, na varivai, na barabarata, na toa lulasana, na ikiko, na jutu sekesekeria na goto tinoni, beto na poja vikevikereria na goto tinoni.For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, and slander.

20Ari tu ria qari vapajia na toa tana tinoni. Goto nake loqa lima mae beto na tekuteku za zake vapajia na toa tana tinoni aza,>> za gua i Jisu.These are what defile a man, but eating with unwashed hands does not defile him.”

21Ego za iolo ketakoi i Jisu ko za taloi keninana pa pikata ia pa Turosi beto pa Sidoni.Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the district of Tyre and Sidon.

22Ko za taloi lame za maka reko Kenani na suvesuverena pa guguzu aza, ko za kuku lukalukana lao ti Jisu, <<Kei, Bangara! Ao na Tuna i Devita! Mae ko mu roquroqu tokaniziu! Na tuqu reko za lugea na tomete ikikerena, ko za mo vitivitigi,>> za gua aza.And a Canaanite woman from that region came to Him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is miserably possessed by a demon.”

23Ba zake pavu vagalani i Jisu aza. Beto qari lame ria na sepele ko qari kole tepa tokatokai ari qari guni vei aza, <<Mu iju vamule kenia! Za korapa lukana tututigita gita zana!>> qari gua.But Jesus did not answer a word. So His disciples came and urged Him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.”

24Nari ari za gua vei i Jisu, <<Ara za qa tagarunu ko mana lao tadiria na tinoni Izireli gu qari muma vei na sipi,>> za gua aza.He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”

25Totonai za rerege lao tu za na reko ani ko za lao nyumu sori tungutungu pa moena i Jisu ko ari za gua vei, <<Tokaniziu, Bangara!>> za gua.The woman came and knelt before Him. “Lord, help me!” she said.

26Nari za oe i Jisu, ari za guni vei, <<Nake leana za bi tateku za na ganigani tadiria na koburu ko bi tavalao vadi na sie tapauzudi pa ruma,>> za gua aza.But Jesus replied, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”

27Nari ari za gua vei za na reko ani, <<Zotomua tugu Bangara, ba ria na sie pauzudi ba qari kole gu adono ganigani vuvuzudi pa tevolo tadiria qari pauzuria,>> za gua za na reko.“Yes, Lord,” she said, “even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.”

28Nari za oe i Jisu, ari za guni vei, <<Koi tinaqu, na lavatana jola za na mua vazozoto! Mi taroiti vanigo tu ropi za aza vei qu nyoroguani ao,>> za gua. Ko na totozo tugu aza za za tasalana za na tuna reko aza.“O woman,” Jesus answered, “your faith is great! Let it be done for you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that very hour.

29Ego za taloi ketakoi i Jisu ko za poana vei pa ovuku Qalili, beto za zagere zaea aza za maka kubo ko za nyumu ketakoi.Moving on from there, Jesus went along the Sea of Galilee. Then He went up on a mountain and sat down.

30Ego ko qari varikamu lame tana ria zoku pukupuku minete tinoni. Qari okoto toka lamedi tana ria qari qao, ria za uke kale kaki kobu tinidi, ria nake batabatadi, ria na poka beto kubo tinoni mo mule. Ko qari lao loiria pa kekerena i Jisu, ko za salana betoria i Jisu.Large crowds came to Him, bringing the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute, and many others, and laid them at His feet, and He healed them.

31Ko qari gabara beto ria na tinoni tonai qari batia na poka za paranga, ria za uke kale na tinidi qari leana soga, na qao za rerege beto nake batabatadi ba qari batabata. Ko qari vatarazaea ria za na Tamaza tadiria na tinoni Izireli.The crowd was amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled restored, the lame walking, and the blind seeing. And they glorified the God of Israel.

32Ego za kuku tekuria i Jisu ria na nana sepele ko ari za gudi vei, <<Qa roquroqu vitivitigiria ara ria na tinoni ari, ura tori kue ranedi tu za qari kole tututi taqu ko koviria za kepore maka zava mari tekua. Qake nyoguani ara za ba garunu vakeni buraburanaria, ura pala mari rake ko mari tabulobulo pa zona,>> za gua aza.Then Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, “I have compassion for this crowd, because they have already been with Me three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may faint along the way.”

33Nari qari paranga ria na nana sepele, <<E, ba na minete tinoni lavata ani ko pae tana boka teku ganigani ko tana vatekuteku vapoteria za pa ia kaloina vei ari?>> qari gua ria.The disciples replied, “Where in this desolate place could we find enough bread to feed such a large crowd?”

34<<Ka viza bereti za gamu izongia?>> za gua i Jisu. <<Ka vitu gu, beto ko ka viza igana pekipekidi gu,>> qari gua ria.“How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked. “Seven,” they replied, “and a few small fish.”

35Nari za pojadi i Jisu ria na minete tinoni ko qari nyumu beto pa pezo.And He instructed the crowd to sit down on the ground.

36Beto za tekuria aza za ka vitu bereti beto vei tugu na igana, ko za paranga leanadi, beto za kipakiparia, ko za vadi ria na sepele ko ria na sepele qari ia lao vadi na minete tinoni.Taking the seven loaves and the fish, He gave thanks and broke them. Then He gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.

37Ko qari tekuteku beto ria doru tinoni, ko qari pote valeana beto. Beto za qari tekuria ria na sepele za ka vitu topa, ko qari vapugele nyonyoadi na ganigani kole joladi.They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.

38Ko na ngutidi ria na tinoni qari tekuteku ari ka made vuro na marene, goto ria na reko beto ko ria na koburu za qarike tanguti.A total of four thousand men were fed, besides women and children.

39Ego ko pa liguna za garunu vamule keniria i Jisu ria na minete tinoni, nari za lao zae pa koaka aza, ko za toka lao vei tu pa guguzu Magadani.After Jesus had dismissed the crowds, He got into the boat and went to the region of Magadan.
