Mark 6 (GOFWFTW)

1Yesuusi yaappe keyidi, ba tamaareta kaalethidi, ba katama Naazirete bis.Jesus went on from there and came to His hometown, accompanied by His disciples.

2Sambbaata gallas Ayhude Woosa Keethan tamaarsso oykkis. I tamaarsseyssa si7ida daro asay malaalettidi, “Hayssi ha ubbaa awuppe demmide? Ha cinccatethaa I awuppe ekkidee? Ha malaatata oothiya maata I awuppe demmide?When the Sabbath came, He began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard Him were astonished. “Where did this man get these ideas?” they asked. “What is this wisdom He has been given? And how can He perform such miracles?

3Hayssi anaaxiya gidennee? Mayraami na7a, Yayqooba, Yoosa, Yihudanne Simoona ishaa gidenneyye? Iya michcheti nuura hayssan de7okkonayye?” yaagidi, I giyabaa ekkonna ixxidosona.Isn’t this the carpenter, the son of Mary and the brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? Aren’t His sisters here with us as well?” And they took offense at Him.

4Yesuusi he asaakko, “Nabey ba biittan, ba dabbotaninne ba soo asan bonchchettennafe attin harata matan bonchchettees” yaagis.Then Jesus said to them, “Only in his hometown, among his relatives, and in his own household is a prophet without honor.”

5I he bessan ba kushiya guutha asaa bolla wothidi pathidayssafe attin hara malaatata oothanaw dandda7ibeenna.So He could not perform any miracles there, except to lay His hands on a few of the sick and heal them.

6Asay ammaniboonna gisho daro malaalettis. Hessafe guye, Yesuusi he heeran de7iya gutatan asaa tamaarssees.And He was amazed at their unbelief. And He went around from village to village, teaching the people.

7Yesuusi tammanne nam77u tamaareta baakko xeegidi, nam77aa nam77aa gathidi kiittis. Enttaw tuna ayyaanata kessiya wolqqaa immis.Then Jesus called the Twelve to Him and began to send them out two by two, giving them authority over unclean spirits.

8Entta, “Oge xam77afe attin kathi, karxiita, hintte kiisen miishe aybibaakka oykkofite.He instructed them to take nothing but a staff for the journey—no bread, no bag, no money in their belts—

9Hintte tohuwan caamma aathite, shin nam77u afila oykkofite” yaagis.and to wear sandals, but not a second tunic.

10Qassika, “Hinttena asi mokkida soo awunkka gidin he bessaa yeddidi baana gakkanaw he keethan gam77ite.And He told them, “When you enter a house, stay there until you leave that area.

11Hinttena asi mokkonnasuwa woykko hintte odiyabaa si7onnasuwa aw gidikkoka, he biittan de7iya asaas hessi naagiso markka gidana mela he bessaafe keyishe, hintte tohuwappe baana pittite” yaagis.If anyone will not welcome you or listen to you, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that place, as a testimony against them.”

12Tammanne nam77u tamaareti bidi, asay bantta nagaraappe simmanaada qaala odidosona.So they set out and preached that the people should repent.

13Entti asappe daro tuna Ayyaanata kessidosona. Daro hargganchchota zayte tiyidi pathidosona.They also drove out many demons and healed many of the sick, anointing them with oil.

14Yesuusa sunthay ubba bessan keyida gisho, Kawoy Heroodisi iyabaa si7is. Issi issi asay, “Xammaqiya Yohaannisi hayqoppe denddis, hessa gisho ha malaatata oothey iya” yaagidosona.Now King Herod heard about this, for Jesus’ name had become well known, and people were saying, “John the Baptist has risen from the dead! That is why miraculous powers are at work in him.”

15Baggati, “Hayssi Eliyaasa gidennee?” yaagidosona. Harati qassi, “Hayssi beni wode nabetapp issuwa gidonna aggenna” yaagidosona.Others were saying, “He is Elijah,” and still others, “He is a prophet, like one of the prophets of old.”

16Shin Heroodisi hessa si7ida wode, “Hayssi taani qoodhiya qanxisida Xammaqiya Yohaannisa gidennee? I hayqoppe denddis” yaagis.But when Herod heard this, he said, “John, whom I beheaded, has risen from the dead!”

17Heroodisi ba ishaa Filiphphoosa machchiw Herodiyada ekkida gisho I gaason Yohaannisa oythidi qashisis.For Herod himself had ordered that John be arrested and bound and imprisoned, on account of his brother Philip’s wife Herodias, whom Herod had married.

18Yohaannisi Heroodisa, “Neeni ne ishaa machchiw ekkanaw bessenna” yaagis.For John had been telling Herod, “It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife!”

19Herodiyada Yohaannisa ba ulon morkkada iya wodhisanaw koyasu, shin dandda7abukku.So Herodias held a grudge against John and wanted to kill him. But she had been unable,

20Yohaannisi xillonne geeshsha asi gididayssa Heroodisi erida gisho, iyaw babbidi loythi naagisees. Heroodisi Yohaannisi giyabaa si7anaw dosikkoka I giyabaa si7iya wode daro dagammees.because Herod feared John and protected him, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man. When he heard John’s words, he was greatly perplexed; yet he listened to him gladly.

21Heroodisi ba yelettida gallasa bonchchanaw deriya haareyssatas, shaalaqatasinne Galiilan de7iya gita asaas imato giigisis. Hessi Herodiyadas injje gallas gidis.On Herod’s birthday, her opportunity arose. Herod held a banquet for his nobles and military commanders and the leading men of Galilee.

22Herodiyada na7iya imathay mokettiya bessan gela durada, Herodisanne iya imathata ufayssasu. Kawoy na7iw, “Ne koyabaa aybaa gidikkoka tana oychcha, taani new immana” yaagis.When the daughter of Herodias came and danced, she pleased Herod and his guests, and the king said to the girl, “Ask me for whatever you wish, and I will give it to you.”

23Qassi iw caaqqidi, “Neeni oychchiyabaa aybaa gidikkoka, taani new immana. Hari attoshin, ta kawotethaa baggaa gidikkoka taani new immana” yaagis.And he swore to her, “Whatever you ask of me, I will give you, up to half my kingdom!”

24Na7iya kare keyada ba aayeekko, “Ay imma go?” gada oychchasu. I aayiya, “Xammaqiya Yohaannisa huu7iya imma ga” yaagasu.Then she went out and asked her mother, “What should I request?” And her mother answered, “The head of John the Baptist.”

25Na7iya ellasada kawuwakko bada, “Xammaqiya Yohaannisa huu7iya keren wothada ha77i taw immana mela koyays” yaagasu.At once the girl hurried back to the king with her request: “I want you to give me the head of John the Baptist on a platter immediately.”

26Yaanin Kawoy daro qiirottis, shin ba imathata gisho iw caaqqida ba caaquwa menthanaw koyibeenna.The king was consumed with sorrow, but because of his oaths and his guests, he did not want to refuse her.

27Hessa gisho, ellesidi naageyssa Yohaannisa huu7iya ehana mela kiittis. Naageyssi qasho keethi bidi Yohaannisa qoodhiya qanxis.So without delay, the king commanded that John’s head be brought in. He sent an executioner, who went and beheaded him in the prison.

28He qanxettida huu7iya saanen wothi ehidi na7ees immis. Na7iya qassi ba aayes immasu.The man brought John’s head on a platter and presented it to the girl, who gave it to her mother.

29Yohaannisa tamaareti hessa si7ida wode bidi iya ahaa ekki efidi moogidosona.When John’s disciples heard about this, they came and took his body and placed it in a tomb.

30Tammanne nam77u hawaareti simmi yidi entti oothidabaanne tamaarssidabaa ubbaa Yesuusas odidosona.Meanwhile, the apostles gathered around Jesus and brought Him news of all they had done and taught.

31Enttako yaa asaynne biya asay darida gisho, Yesuusaranne iya tamaaretara, hari attoshin kathi maanawukka entta gathonna ixxis. Yaanin, Yesuusi enttako, “Nurkka guuthi shemppi ekkanaw asi baynna bessi yedhdhite” yaagis.And He said to them, “Come with Me privately to a solitary place, and let us rest for a while.” For many people were coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat.

32Hessa gisho, entti banttarkka wogolon gelidi asi baynna bessi bidosona.So they went away in a boat by themselves to a solitary place.

33Entti bishin daro asay entta be7idi eridosona. Yaatin, katama ubbaafe asay tohora woxxi bidi entti biyasuwa enttafe sinthe gakkidosona.But many people saw them leaving and recognized them. They ran together on foot from all the towns and arrived before them.

34Yesuusi wogoluwappe wodhdhidi daro asa be7is. Asay heemmiya asi baynna dorssa mela gididayssa be7idi enttaw qadhettidi entta darobaa tamaarssis.When Jesus stepped ashore and saw a large crowd, He had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. And He began to teach them many things.

35Sa7ay omarssiya wode Yesuusa tamaareti iyaakko yidi, “Hayssi bessay asi baynna bessi; ha77i sa7aykka qammis.By now the hour was already late. So the disciples came to Jesus and said, “This is a desolate place, and the hour is already late.

36Asay gutatanne katamata bidi bantaw miyabaa shammana mela asa yedda” yaagidosona.Dismiss the crowd so they can go to the surrounding countryside and villages and buy themselves something to eat.”

37Shin Yesuusi zaaridi enttako, “Asaas miyabaa hintte immite” yaagis. Entti, “Nuuni bidi nam77u xeetu dinaaren uythu shammidi asaa muzana mela koyay?” yaagidi oychchidosona.But Jesus told them, “You give them something to eat.” They asked Him, “Should we go out and spend two hundred denarii to give all of them bread to eat?”

38Yesuusi enttako, “Hinttew aappun uythi de7ii? Ane bidi be7ite” yaagis. Entti be7idi, “Ichchashu uythunne nam77u molo” yaagidosona.“Go and see how many loaves you have,” He told them. And after checking, they said, “Five—and two fish.”

39Yesuusi ba tamaareta asa ubbaa cugen cugen shaakkidi maatan utisana mela kiittis.Then Jesus directed them to have the people sit in groups on the green grass.

40Asay xeetu cugeninne ishatamu cugen shaaketti shaaketti uttidosona.So they sat down in groups of hundreds and fifties.

41Yesuusi ichchashu uythaanne nam77u molota ekkidi, pude salo xeellidi Xoossaa galatis. Uythaa menthidi asaas gishana mela ba tamaaretas immis. Qassi nam77u molota entta ubbaas shaakkis.Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, Jesus spoke a blessing and broke the loaves. Then He gave them to His disciples to set before the people. And He divided the two fish among them all.

42Asa ubbay midi kallidosona.They all ate and were satisfied,

43Attida uytha tiifiyanne molota tiifiya, iya tamaareti tammanne nam77u gayta kumethi denthidosona.and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces of bread and fish.

44Uythaa mida adde asaa tayboy ichchashu mukulu.And there were five thousand men who had eaten the loaves.

45Ellesidi Yesuusi ba tamaareti wogoluwan gelidi, abbaafe hefinthan de7iya Beetesayda baappe sinthattidi baana mela kiittis. Shin baw asaa moyzanaw guye attis.Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to Bethsaida, while He dismissed the crowd.

46Asaa moyzidaappe guye, Xoossaa woossanaw deriya bolla keyis.After bidding them farewell, He went up on the mountain to pray.

47Sa7ay qammiya wode wogoloy abbaa giddon de7ees, shin Yesuusi abbaafe gaxan barkka de7ees.When evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and Jesus was alone on land.

48Carkkoy iya tamaaretakko carkkiya gisho, abbaa pidhoy waayseyssa Yesuusi be7is. Wonttimaathe sa7ay geeyana haniya wode I abbaa bolla hamuttishe enttako yidi, entta yeggidi aadhdhanaw koyis.He could see that the disciples were straining to row, because the wind was against them. About the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went out to them, walking on the sea. He intended to pass by them,

49Shin I abbaa bolla hamuttishin, entti be7idi, enttaw moytille daanin waassidosona.but when they saw Him walking on the sea, they cried out, thinking He was a ghost—

50Entti ubbay iya be7idi, yashshan kokkoridosona. Shin Yesuusi ellesidi enttako, “Tana, aykkoy baawa; yayyofite” yaagis.for they all saw Him and were terrified. But Jesus spoke up at once: “Take courage! It is I. Do not be afraid.”

51Yesuusi wogoluwan gelidi enttara issife uttin carkkoy woppu gis. Entti daro malaalettidosona.Then He climbed into the boat with them, and the wind died down. And the disciples were utterly astounded,

52Entta wozanay zel77umida gisho, entti uythabaa akeekibookkona.for they had not understood about the loaves, but their hearts had been hardened.

53Entti abbaa pinnidi, Gensareexe giya biittaa gakkidi, wogoluwa gaxa shiishidi qachchidosona.When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret and moored the boat.

54Entti wogoluwappe wodhdhiya wode asay ellesidi Yesuusa eridosona.As soon as they got out of the boat, the people recognized Jesus

55Entti heeran de7iya biitta ubban woxerettidi hargganchchota halan tookkidi, “Yesuusi de7ees” gin si7ida bessaa ehidosona.and ran through that whole region, carrying the sick on mats to wherever they heard He was.

56Asay I bida soo ubban, gaxariyan gidin, kataman, de7iya hargganchchota dabaaba efoosona. Hargganchchoti iya afilaa macaraa gidikkoka bochchana mela asay iya woossidosona. Bochchida ubbay paxis.And wherever He went—villages and towns and countrysides—they laid the sick in the marketplaces and begged Him just to let them touch the fringe of His cloak. And all who touched Him were healed.
