Mark 12 (GMVL) · Opened

1Qasse isttas leemisora yootishe, «Issaadey ba woyne mith tokkides. Keela yuushshi aaththi keelides; woyne miththa ayfe gum7ana olla bookkides. Naage keeththeka keexxides. Hessafe goshshanchchatas kira immidi hara dere bides.Then Jesus began to speak to them in parables: “A man planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a wine vat, and built a watchtower. Then he rented it out to some tenants and went away on a journey.

2Miththay ayfiza wode woyne miththaa ayfe ekkada ya giidi ashkaratappe issaade goshshanchchatakko yeddides.At harvest time, he sent a servant to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard.

3Goshshanchchati ashkaraza oykki shocidi coo mela kushe yeddida.But they seized the servant, beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.

4Nam7anththoka hara ashkara yeddides. Goshshanchchati ha7ikka ashkaraa oykkidi izas hu7etara qoo7idinne kawushshidi zaari yeddida.Then he sent them another servant, and they struck him over the head and treated him shamefully.

5Ha7ikka zaaridi hara ashkara yeddides. He yeddoyssaka wodhida; hara darota giddofe issi issi asata qoxxida; baggayta wodhida.He sent still another, and this one they killed. He sent many others; some they beat and others they killed.

6«Ha7ikka kiitettontta attida haray dees; izikka aaway dosiza ba naaza. ‹Ta naaza istti boossana› gi qoppidi wurseththan ba naaza yeddides.Finally, having one beloved son, he sent him to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.

7Goshshanchchati qasse ba giddon, ‹Hayssi waanna iza laattana naaza; haa yiite nu iza wodhikko biittay nuus gidana› gida.But the tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’

8Hessa gishshas heen oykki wodhidi woyne miththay dizasoppe haraso kessi yeggida.So they seized the son, killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.

9«Histtiin woyne miththaa goday ay ooththana inttes misatizee? Izi yaana; goshshanchchatakka wodhana; woyne miththaa haratas immana.What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others.

10Geeshsha Maxaafan, ‹Shuchcha keeththe keexxizayti hanenna giidi wora yeggida shuchchay keeththa gulas bolla hu7e gidides; hessaka Goday ooththides. Hessika nu ayfes malalisizaaz geetettidi xaafettidayssa nababibeekketii?› » gides.Have you never read this Scripture: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.

12Izi isttas leemisoza yootiday istta gishshas gididayssa Ayhuda halaqati erida gishshas iza oykkanaas koyida; gido attiin asaas babbida gishshas aggi bida.At this, the leaders sought to arrest Jesus, for they knew that He had spoken this parable against them. But fearing the crowd, they left Him and went away.

13Yesusa yo7on qaxxana mala Farsaawetappenne Herdoosa baggatappe guuththa asata dooridi izakko yeddida.Later, they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians to catch Jesus in His words.

14Isttika izakko yiidi, «Astamaaree! Neni mooroy baynda as gididayssa nu eroos; ne oonaska babbada wordo maaddaka; Xoossa oge xalala tumu tamaarsaasa. Oroome kawo Qeesaares giira qanxxanaas bessizeyee? Bessennee? Nu qanxxinoyee? Qanxxofinoo?»“Teacher,” they said, “we know that You are honest and seek favor from no one. Indeed, You are impartial and teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not? Should we pay them or not?”

15Yesusi istta oyshay qoodheppe qommo gididayssa eridi, «Aazas tana qaxxana koyeetii? Ane issi dinaare hammite ta beyays» gides.But Jesus saw through their hypocrisy and said, “Why are you testing Me? Bring Me a denarius to inspect.”

16Isttika miishshaa ehiin, «Hayssi iza bolla diza mislezi oona mislee? Iza bolla xaafettidayssi oona gizee?» gides. Isttika, «Qeesaareyssa» gida.So they brought it, and He asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?” “Caesar’s,” they answered.

17Yesusikka, «Qeesaareyssa Qeesaares, Xoossayssa Xoossas immite» gides. Isttika iza zaaron malalettida.Then Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.” And they marveled at Him.

18Hessafe guye hayqqidaytas hayqoppe denththi baa giza Saduqaaweti izakko yiidi iza hizgi oychchida.Then the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Jesus and questioned Him:

19«Astamaaree! Issi asi machcho ekkidi naa yelontta hayqqiko hayqqidayssa ishay iza machcheyo ekkidi izas laata naa yelana mala kase Musey nuus xaafides.“Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, the man is to marry his brother’s widow and raise up offspring for him.

20Gido attiin laappun ishantti deettes; isttafe bayray machcho ekkidi naa yelontta hayqqides.Now there were seven brothers. The first one married and died, leaving no children.

21Kaalozi he maccassayo ekkidi ha7ikka naa yelontta hayqqides; heedzdzanththoyka yelontta hayqqides.Then the second one married the widow, but he also died and left no children. And the third did likewise.

22Laappunatikka he maccassayo ekkidi laata yelibeettenna; wurseththan maccassayakka hayqqadus.In this way, none of the seven left any children. And last of all, the woman died.

23Histtiin laappunatikka izo ekkidashin hayqoppe dendoy dizaa gidikko ha maccassaya isttafe oona machcho gidanee?» gida.In the resurrection, then, whose wife will she be? For all seven were married to her.”

24Yesusikka isttas, «Intte balettizay Geeshsha Maxaafatanne Xoossa wolqqa erontta gishshassa.Jesus said to them, “Aren’t you mistaken, because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God?

25Hayqqidayti dendiza wode Salo Kiitanchchata mala gidana attiin ekettettenanne gelettenna.When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage. Instead, they will be like the angels in heaven.

26Hayqqidayta denththa gishshas gidikko Muse maxaafan hessika qeeri wora giddon eexxiza tama giddofe Xoossi, ‹Tani Abrahaame Xoossaa; Yisaaqa Xoossaa; Yaaqoobe Xoossaa› gizayssa nababibeekketii?But concerning the dead rising, have you not read about the burning bush in the Book of Moses, how God told him, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?

27Xoossi paxata Xoossa attiin hayqeththata Xoos gidenna; hessa gishshas intte daro balettideta» gides.He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are badly mistaken!”

28Istti palaman dishin xaafetappe issaadey istta palamaa siyidinne Yesusi oyshettidayssas lo7eththi zaaridayssa akeekidi, «Ero! Azazota ubbaafe aadhdhizay awayssee?» giidi oychchides.Now one of the scribes had come up and heard their debate. Noticing how well Jesus had answered them, he asked Him, “Which commandment is the most important of all?”

29Yesusi izas, «Ubbaafe aadhdhizay hayssa, ‹Isra7eele siya! Godaa nu Xoossi issi Godaa,Jesus replied, “This is the most important: ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One.

30Nekka Godaa ne Xoossaa ne kumeththa wozinappe, ne kumeththa shemppofe, ne kumeththa qofappe, ne kumeththa wolqqafe dosa.›Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’

31Nam7anththoyka, ‹Ne lagge ne hu7e mala dosa› ha nam7atappe aadhdhiza azazoy baa.»The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ No other commandment is greater than these.”

32Xaafezikka, «Astamaaree! Lo7o gadasa, ‹Xoossi issino gididayssanne izappe haray bayndayssa› ne yootidayssi likke.“Right, Teacher,” the scribe replied. “You have stated correctly that God is One and there is no other but Him,

33Iza ne kumeththa wozinappe ne kumeththa qofappe ne kumeththa wolqqafe dosoy qasseka ne lagge ne hu7e mala dosoy xuugettiza yarshofenne hara yarsho ubbaafe aadhdhees» gides.and to love Him with all your heart and with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself. This is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”

34Yesusikka addezi yuushshi qoppidi zaaridayssa be7idi, «Neni Xoossa Kawoteththafe haahon daakka» gides. Hessafe guye iza oychchanaas xalidaadey beettibeenna.When Jesus saw that the man had answered wisely, He said, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” And no one dared to question Him any further.

35Yesusi Xoossa Keeththa gaaththan tamaarsishe, «Muse wogaa tamaarsizayti aazas, ‹Kirstoosa Dawite naa› gizoo?While Jesus was teaching in the temple courts, He asked, “How can the scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David?

36Dawiti Xillo Ayanan haasayshe, ‹Goday ta Godaa, ne morkketa ta ne toho gars aaththana gakkanaas ta ushachchan utta› gides.Speaking by the Holy Spirit, David himself declared: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand until I put Your enemies under Your feet.”’

37Histtiin Dawiti ba doonara iza, ‹Godaa› giikko waanidi simmi izas naa gidanee?» gides. Daro dereykka izi gizayssa ufayssara siyides.David himself calls Him ‘Lord.’ So how can He be David’s son?” And the large crowd listened to Him with delight.

38Izi tamaarsishe, «Muse wogaa tamaarsizaytappe naagettite, gadera gooshettiza adussa may7o may7idi yuushshe yuuyana doseettes; awanka aadhdhi aadhdhi asi isttas bonchcho sarota immana mala koyeettes.In His teaching Jesus also said, “Watch out for the scribes. They like to walk around in long robes, to receive greetings in the marketplaces,

39Ayhudata Woosa Keeththan dhoqqaso, gibirasonkka bonchchoso koyeettes.and to have the chief seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets.

40Istti azinay baynda maccassa keeth kalloseettes; qasseka bana bessanaas adussa woosa woosseettes. Haytanti iita pirda pirdettana» gides.They defraud widows of their houses, and for a show make lengthy prayers. These men will receive greater condemnation.”

41Yesusikka asay muxuwaata yeggizason uttidi daro asati immizayssa Xoossa Keeththa miishsha shiishshiza saaxinen yeggizayssa xeellides. Daro dureti daro miish yeggida.As Jesus was sitting opposite the treasury, He watched the crowd putting money into it. And many rich people put in large amounts.

42Issi azinay baynda am7e dizaara issi sikkinnafe darontta xarqimala biratappe oosettida nam7u miish yeggadus.Then one poor widow came and put in two small copper coins, which amounted to a small fraction of a denarius.

43Yesusi bana kaallizayta xeygidi, «Ta inttes tumu gays; saaxinezan yeggida ubbaafe hanna manqo am7eya aadheth yeggadus.Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more than all the others into the treasury.

44Hayti wuri baas diza tirpa miishshaafe yeggidashin hanna qasse ba manqoteththaafe baas dizayssa sinththafe izo koshshizayssara wursa immadus» gides.For they all contributed out of their surplus, but she out of her poverty has put in all she had to live on.”
