Mark 7 (GOFL) · Opened

1Yerusalaamepe yida guutha Farsaawetinne higge astamaareti Yesuusa matan shiiqidosona.Then the Pharisees and some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem gathered around Jesus,

2Yesuusa tamaaretape issoti issoti geeyonna kushiyan, hessika kushe meecetonna kathi meyisata be7idosona.and they saw some of His disciples eating with hands that were defiled—that is, unwashed.

3Farsaawetinne Ayhude asa ubbay banta aawata wogaatho banta kushiya meecetonna mookonna.Now in holding to the tradition of the elders, the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat until they wash their hands ceremonially.

4Hessadaka, enti giyape shametidaba meecconna de7ishe mokonna. Qassi enti banta aawatape ekida hara daro wogi de7ees: hessika sineta, kereta, birata miishetanne arsa meecciya wogaa naageysa.And on returning from the market, they do not eat unless they wash. And there are many other traditions for them to observe, including the washing of cups, pitchers, kettles, and couches for dining.

5Farsaawetinne higge astamaareti Yesuusa, “Ne tamaareti ayis aawata wogaa menthidi banta kushiya meecetonna kathi moonna?” yaagidi oychidosona.So the Pharisees and scribes questioned Jesus: “Why do Your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders? Instead, they eat with defiled hands.”

6Yesuusi entako, “Isayaasi hintena cubbota, “ ‘Haysi asay tana ba inxarsa xalaalan bonchees, shin enta wozanay taape haahon de7ees.Jesus answered them, “Isaiah prophesied correctly about you hypocrites, as it is written: ‘These people honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me.

7Asi medhida wogaa Xoossaa higge daanisidi tamaarsiya gisho, enti taw mela goyinnoosona’ ” gidi xaafidaysi tuma.They worship Me in vain; they teach as doctrine the precepts of men.’

8“Hinte Xoossaa kiitaa aggidi asa wogaa minthidi naageta” yaagis.You have disregarded the commandment of God to keep the tradition of men.”

9Qassika Yesuusi, “Hinte hinte wogaa naagidi Xoossaa kiitaa yeggi agganaw lo77o oge demmideta.He went on to say, “You neatly set aside the command of God to maintain your own tradition.

10Musey, ‘Ne aawanne ne aayiw boncha’, qassi ‘Ba aawanne ba aayiw cayeysi hayqanaw bessees’ yaagis.For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and your mother’ and ‘Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.’

11Shin issi asi ba aawa woyko ba aayiw maaddanaysa aggidi, ‘Haysi taani Xoossas immida yarsho’ giiko,But you say that if a man says to his father or mother, ‘Whatever you would have received from me is Corban’ (that is, a gift devoted to God),

12I ba aawa woyko ba aayiw maaddonna mela ootheeta.he is no longer permitted to do anything for his father or mother.

13Hessadaka, hinte harata tamaarsida hinte wogan Xoossaa qaala kadhideta. Hessa mela hara darobaa ootheeta” yaagis.Thus you nullify the word of God by the tradition you have handed down. And you do so in many such matters.”

14Yesuusi daro asaa qassika baako xeegidi, “Ubbay taani odeysa si7itenne akeekite.Once again Jesus called the crowd to Him and said, “All of you, listen to Me and understand:

15Asa wozanape keyaabay ase tuniseesipe attishin, karepe asa ulo gelidi ase tunisiyabay aybika baawa.Nothing that enters a man from the outside can defile him; but the things that come out of a man, these are what defile him.”

16Si7iya haythi de7iya oonika si7o” yaagis.Not in the BSB

17Yesuusi daro asaa yeggi aggidi soo gelin iya tamaareti he leemisuwaba iya oychidosona.After Jesus had left the crowd and gone into the house, His disciples inquired about the parable.

18I entako, “Hintewuka qassi gelibeennee? Karepe asan geliyabay aybika ase tunisanaw danda7onnaysa akeeketii?“Are you still so dull?” He asked. “Do you not understand? Nothing that enters a man from the outside can defile him,

19Ayis giiko, kathi asa ulo giddo gelidi kanthidi aadhesipe attishin, asa wozana giddo gelenna” yaagis. Hessan Yesuusi kathi ubbay geeshshi gideysa erisis.because it does not enter his heart, but it goes into the stomach and then is eliminated.” (Thus all foods are clean.)

20Kaallidika, Yesuusi, “Asa tunisiyabay asa wozana giddofe keyaaba.He continued: “What comes out of a man, that is what defiles him.

21Asa wozana giddofe keyaabay iita qofa, laymatethi, kayso, ase wodho, laame,For from within the hearts of men come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery,

22iita amo, iitatethi, gene, qayxe, cimo, qanaate, cashshe, otoronne boozatethi.greed, wickedness, deceit, debauchery, envy, slander, arrogance, and foolishness.

23Ha iitabay ubbayka asa wozana giddofe keyidi ase tunisees” yaagis.All these evils come from within, and these are what defile a man.”

24Yesuusi yaape keyidi, Xiroosa katama matan de7iya biitta bis. I issi keethi gelidi yan de7eysa oonika erana mela koybeenna. Shin qosetidi gam7anaw danda7ibeenna.Jesus left that place and went to the region of Tyre. Not wanting anyone to know He was there, He entered a house, but was unable to escape their notice.

25Shin I guutha na7iw tuna ayyaanay oykida issi maccasiya Yesuusaba si7ada ellesa iyako yada iya tohuwa bolla kundasu.Instead, a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit soon heard about Jesus, and she came and fell at His feet.

26Iya Ayhude maccasi giduku; iya yeletiday Sirofinqe biittana. Iya, ba na7epe tuna ayyaana kessana mela Yesuusa woossasu.Now she was a Greek woman of Syrophoenician origin, and she kept asking Jesus to drive the demon out of her daughter.

27Shin Yesuusi zaaridi, “Nayti koyrottidi kathaa kallo; nayta kathaa ekidi kanatas yeggeysi lo77o gidenna” yaagis.“First let the children have their fill,” He said. “For it is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”

28Maccasiya zaarada, “Ta Godaw hessi tuma, shin gayta matan de7iya kanati naytape wodhiya tiifiya moosona” yaagasu.“Yes, Lord,” she replied, “even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.”

29Yesuusi qassi iiko, “Ha ne qaala gisho, ne soo ba; tuna ayyaanay ne na7epe keyis” yaagis.Then Jesus told her, “Because of this answer, you may go. The demon has left your daughter.”

30Maccasiya ba soo biya wode tuna ayyaanay iipe keyin hiixan zin7idaaro demmasu.And she went home and found her child lying on the bed, and the demon was gone.

31Yesuusi Xiroosa katamaape keyidi, Sidoonaranne Tammu Katamata geetetiya biittara kanthidi Galila Abbaako bis.Then Jesus left the region of Tyre and went through Sidon to the Sea of Galilee and into the region of the Decapolis.

32Asay tullenne waayidi odetiya asi Yesuusako ehidi, ba kushiya iya bolla wothana mela iya woossidosona.Some people brought to Him a man who was deaf and hardly able to speak, and they begged Jesus to place His hand on him.

33Yesuusi barka he uraa daro asape gaxa kessidi, ba biradhiya iya haythan yeddis. Qassi cuchu cuttidi iya inxarsaa bochis.So Jesus took him aside privately, away from the crowd, and put His fingers into the man’s ears. Then He spit and touched the man’s tongue.

34Salo pude xeellidi, tooki shempidi, “Eftah” gis. Birshethayka “Dooyeta” guussu.And looking up to heaven, He sighed deeply and said to him, “Ephphatha!” (which means, “Be opened!”).

35Uraa haythay ellesidi dooyetis, qashetida inxarsayka birshetis, uray geeshshidi odetis.Immediately the man’s ears were opened and his tongue was released, and he began to speak plainly.

36Yesuusi asaako, “Haysa oodeska odopite” yaagis. Shin I daro minthidi odopite gin, asay odaa yaa darsis.Jesus ordered them not to tell anyone. But the more He ordered them, the more widely they proclaimed it.

37Hessa si7ida asa ubbay daro malaaletidi, “Ubbabaa I loythi oothees. Hari attoshin, tulliya sissees, muumiya odisees” yaagidosona.The people were utterly astonished and said, “He has done all things well! He makes even the deaf hear and the mute speak!”
