Mark 4 (HWO) · Opened

1Yeeso nggǝrghǝn ɗǝrha mbeeɗǝ tǝ tsahang fiya ha a mii wuri aam Nggalili. Fiya wumngga thlǝmadghǝn ɓa mulnda hai kaan pa kyagha hu kombuwol hai fiya tsǝtsau a mii ƙǝkǝshɓang nda.Once again Jesus began to teach beside the sea, and such a large crowd gathered around Him that He got into a boat and sat in it, while all the people crowded along the shore.

2Tsahang ɗǝ ǝngya kanda ha hangga tǝ karapuya. A hu tsahadghǝn ha ndǝghǝn,And He taught them many things in parables, and in His teaching He said,

3“Kama thlǝmarha hai! Tǝ huɗarha ɗǝɗǝ ka hǝfrha ɗǝ.“Listen! A farmer went out to sow his seed.

4Nanǝn aten wash wiidɗi, hǝrgha fingya hai aten kwamana, ɓagha wuɗikkya ɓa ɗamangganda.And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.

5Hǝrgha fingya hǝreng keela hai, ka mbuwana chehweerha sǝ ngga kya nda sǝ ƙǝkar, ƙǝsǝr mbǝ chehweedghǝn kuɗimnggǝn wa.Some fell on rocky ground, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly because the soil was shallow.

6Amma tǝkna yanfaara hai, hwara nda ɗǝ, ƙǝsǝr kwa wanda thlaara hai wa.But when the sun rose, the seedlings were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.

7Fingya hǝra nda pathlang ndakhkya hai kya nda sǝ kal wanda farha hai a pathlang ndakhkini wa ko kanda ǝna wee.Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the seedlings, and they yielded no crop.

8Amma fingya hǝra nda hu chehweerha hai na ngga kyanda sǝ ǝna wee nda fingya katǝra kumnggit mahan-mahan, fingya ƙǝm kumnggit mikki-mikki har haru-haru.”Still other seed fell on good soil, where it sprouted, grew up, and produced a crop—one bearing thirtyfold, another sixtyfold, and another a hundredfold.”

9Ndǝghǝn, “Yi na tǝ thlǝmad sǝkrha, sǝkƙǝnǝn.”Then Jesus said, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”

10Sayidɗi nanǝn katenggǝn, kumkap sǝri ɗi tǝ fingya na a thlǝmadghǝn tsahang mee nda ha aten karapu yini.As soon as Jesus was alone with the Twelve and those around Him, they asked Him about the parable.

11Ndanggǝn kanda, “Nggǝmang nda kun fa na a sǝn ˈya nun na kutǝryid Faara ahurghǝn, fingya a mbǝ tǝ karapu wa mba nda sǝnggǝn wa.He replied, “The mystery of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to those on the outside everything is expressed in parables,

12Tǝna nda, “‘Ƙǝlaarha ɗǝ, amma mba nda kukwalang hai wa, na nda sǝkƙǝn ƙǝm, amma mba nda sǝnang hai wa. Kam kyahar nda ɓa, chahang ɗimiyid ndan nda kanda ɗǝ!’ ”so that, ‘they may be ever seeing but never perceiving, and ever hearing but never understanding; otherwise they might turn and be forgiven.’”

13Tǝrgha ndangga Yeeso kanda, “Ashe sǝnanggun karapu ɗa hai ya wa, ƙǝƙǝn nun sǝn fingya karapuya?Then Jesus said to them, “Do you not understand this parable? Then how will you understand any of the parables?

14Tǝ hǝfǝdɗi, laɓar Faara ni nǝn a pǝra.The farmer sows the word.

15Wiidɗi hǝrgha aten kwamana hai nǝghǝn aten nafiya sǝkka laɓarɗi, amma ɓagha Sheetan ɓa tǝranggǝn laɓar ɗaɗǝ ahur ndan.Some are like the seeds along the path, where the word is sown. As soon as they hear it, Satan comes and takes away the word that was sown in them.

16Fingya, na nda ƙǝla wiirha hǝf nanda a hǝreng keela, sǝk nanda laɓarɗi thlǝghǝn nda tǝ hura pǝpet.Some are like the seeds sown on rocky ground. They hear the word and at once receive it with joy.

17Amma mbuwana thlar ndan sǝ, mǝngwanda ha wa. A hǝrǝm ɓillarha nduwa sǝsaarha ɓarha ɓa ƙǝsǝr ka laɓarɗi mba nda kwas kyaharra hai wa.But they themselves have no root, and they remain for only a season. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, they quickly fall away.

18Tǝ ƙǝm na fingya ƙǝla wiiya hǝrgha pathlang ndakhkya hai, sǝkka laɓarɗi;Others are like the seeds sown among the thorns. They hear the word,

19amma ƙǝsǝr ɓillad ƙǝshiirha, tǝ suna ƙǝna tǝ nggǝm ǝn ƙǝshiirha thluranggǝn laɓarɗi ahur ndan tsauka mbǝ ˈyani na ngga wa.but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth, and the desire for other things come in and choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

20Wiiya hǝrgha hu chehweerha hai na ngga, nafiyani sǝkka laɓar Faara thlǝghǝnda fa tǝ chikrha katǝra kumnggit mahan-mahan, kumnggit mikki-mikki tǝ haru-haru aten ǝnɗi hǝf nanda.”Still others are like the seeds sown on good soil. They hear the word, receive it, and produce a crop—thirtyfold, sixtyfold, or a hundredfold.”

21Ndangga Yeeso kanda, “ˈWad niifa ɓarha ɓa tǝ patilla tsǝɓanggǝn tǝ tǝɓa nduwa ɗǝfanggǝn kasǝra ɗǝ wa? Mbǝ nǝm ɗǝfang nda a mbǝd ɗǝfǝdghǝn wa?Jesus also said to them, “Does anyone bring in a lamp to put it under a basket or under a bed? Doesn’t he set it on a stand?

22Mbǝ ˈyasǝ na ɓǝɓee mbuwa kyarha sǝ wa. Mbǝ ˈyasǝ ƙǝm na nggǝnggǝla mbuwa wa kyarha pǝpal ɓa wa.For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be brought to light.

23Kala niifa na tǝ thlǝmad sǝkrha sǝkƙǝnǝn.”If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.”

24“Kwarama tǝ sǝk pathla nun naarha sǝkrha, tur tasau ƙǝƙǝrɗi nun a ƙǝƙǝrra sǝ, ndǝghǝnni na nda a ƙǝƙǝrang kunsǝ ƙǝm har kal yinun nǝn mu.”He went on to say, “Pay attention to what you hear. With the measure you use, it will be measured to you, and even more will be added to you.

25“Kala niifa na tǝ ˈya ha na nda a chighanggǝn, kala niifa ƙǝm mbuwa wa tǝ ˈya ha, yanɗi nanǝn tǝghǝn ha ƙǝm na nda a thlang nda hai.”For whoever has will be given more. But whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.”

26Nggǝrgha Yeeso ndaarha, “Na kutǝryid Faara kiya. Niifa washgha wiirha ahu hedghǝn ɗǝ.Jesus also said, “The kingdom of God is like a man who scatters seed on the ground.

27Mǝngga ha, kyagha wiidɗa sǝ, sǝngwa sǝ tǝ katǝradghǝn hai ƙǝƙǝn wa.Night and day he sleeps and wakes, and the seed sprouts and grows, though he knows not how.

28Tǝ altenggǝn nagha a tsǝrha, katǝradghǝn hai tǝ kwaafa, ɗǝfgha hur iiwee nǝn.All by itself the earth produces a crop—first the stalk, then the head, then grain that ripens within.

29A hǝrǝmɗǝ nakhɗaarha, nǝn a hwasang sǝ tǝ ɗǝhwasarha ƙǝsǝr tsǝ shifiirha hai.”And as soon as the grain is ripe, he swings the sickle, because the harvest has come.”

30Nggǝrgha Yeeso ndaarha, “Tǝ ma nǝm sakh kutǝryid Faara, nduwa tǝ tur yanggi karapu nǝm sakhƙǝn sǝ?Then He asked, “To what can we compare the kingdom of God? With what parable shall we present it?

31Nǝghǝn ƙǝla wan parsǝna na wanggǝn ngguchit ahur wiiya na heu nǝm hǝfrha.It is like a mustard seed, which is the smallest of all seeds sown upon the earth.

32A hǝfang ɗǝm hai nǝn tsǝrha tsauka ɗǝfrha manggǝn kal fingya nǝn na ahu hedɗi ǝnagha wuɗikkya ƙǝndan a wuhwaryighǝn.”But after it is planted, it grows to be the largest of all garden plants and puts forth great branches, so that the birds of the air nest in its shade.”

33Tǝ fingya karapuya ƙǝla yanɗiya hangga thlǝghangna Yeeso kanda sǝ, tǝ fingya na nda mbang sǝnang hai.With many such parables Jesus spoke the word to them, to the extent that they could understand.

34Mbǝ ˈyasǝ nǝn thlǝghang kanda kula karapu wa. Amma sayidɗi nanǝn tǝ fatsahayighǝn nǝn fǝlanggǝn kanda hai.He did not tell them anything without using a parable. But privately He explained everything to His own disciples.

35A farɗi tsǝna figrha hai, ndanggǝn fatsahayighǝn, “Tama pǝm wuri aamɗa ɗǝ ya.”When that evening came, He said to His disciples, “Let us cross to the other side.”

36Mal fiya nda a samarha, wii nda ɗǝ tǝghǝn ahu kombuwol ɗi nanǝn sǝ. Na fingya kombuwalya sǝ ƙǝm a mbǝɗi mbuwa samadghǝn.After they had dismissed the crowd, they took Jesus with them, since He was already in the boat. And there were other boats with Him.

37Thliigha ɓereu ˈyaara ɓa, nagha a pǝshang aama ahu kombuwol ndan ɓa takhka a timnda hai.Soon a violent windstorm came up, and the waves were breaking over the boat, so that it was being swamped.

38Yeeso a ɓeena a samad kombuwol ɗi. Thlengga fatsahayighǝn sǝ ndang ngganda, “Mala, sǝngwa takh ɗǝm a mǝra wa?”But Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on the cushion. So they woke Him and said, “Teacher, don’t You care that we are perishing?”

39Thliigha Yeeso sǝ, yananggǝn ɓereu ɗi, “Nggasu hai! Ishiu!” Isgha ɓereu ɗi, nggasgha mbǝrha hai.Then Jesus got up and rebuked the wind and the sea. “Silence!” He commanded. “Be still!” And the wind died down, and it was perfectly calm.

40Tǝrgha ndanggǝn fatsahayighǝn, “Mani tǝrǝm nun? Ai fǝrƙǝkafekkid nun?”“Why are you so afraid?” He asked. “Do you still have no faith?”

41Tǝr ma nda kaan, tsahang mee nda ndan, “Wunniya? Na ɓereurha tǝ kufulla aama fǝrang mamnggirha!”Overwhelmed with fear, they asked one another, “Who is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?”
