Mark 6 (LYN) · Opened

1Jesu aba na tunda omo mu sibaka, sebeli ota ku mundi waye, mi aiyetwa aye sebeli amwenda mu nyima.Jesus went on from there and came to His hometown, accompanied by His disciples.

2Cwale elino Pumulo, sebeli otangisa okwiyeta aanu mu ndoo no milapelo no Majuda, mi ano kupula aba ana ku muyupa sebeli akomoka ni kwamba nji, “Kubine ana itundisa eyi wuyu mulume? Kaku shangama oko anabiwi? Kubine ana wana amaata no kutenda etimakazo ni maoko aye?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?

3Kasa yokame osikwaya omwana Maliya, omukulwaa Jakobo, Jose, Juda ni Simoni? Amandaye kasaa, tuli noo? Mi kame ana sitatala mu libaka lyaye.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.

4Cwale Jesu sebeli wamba kwa onyene nji, “Omunuhi wa Nyambe omu aulwa okukutekiwa mu naha yaye felea, kwasi lusika lwaye na sindoo yaye.”Then Jesus said to them, “Only in his hometown, among his relatives, and in his own household is a prophet without honor.”

5Omo kasiku twesa okutendamo omusebezi no koongola, konji okubalisa aanu acana ana kutoma, mukwabeeka amaoko aye beulu ni kwa balisa.So He could not perform any miracles there, except to lay His hands on a few of the sick and heal them.

6Mi kame anaku komoka okwa pumena koo. Cwale Jesu sebeli ota mu mindi ili beebi yoiyeta aanu.And He was amazed at their unbelief. And He went around from village to village, teaching the people.

7Cwale Jesu sebeli oisana ano kukwana likumi na yiili, mi kame ana kwatuma mu wiili, mu wiili. Mi nikwaaba amaata beulu no mebo no kwakena,Then Jesus called the Twelve to Him and began to send them out two by two, giving them authority over unclean spirits.

8sebeli walaela nji, “Mulese okushimba esinu sonje, konji omulamu, mulese okushimba esinkwa, omukotana, simba amali mu tipokoto tenu.He instructed them to take nothing but a staff for the journey—no bread, no bag, no money in their belts—

9Mukumange einjatangwa yenu, mi mulese okushimba esikumango sinjili no wiili.”and to wear sandals, but not a second tunic.

10Cwale kame sebeli waambela nji, “Mu ndoo yonje omo samwingene, mwikalemo okutwala aba sa mukatundemo.And He told them, “When you enter a house, stay there until you leave that area.

11Cwale omo mu ndoo sakane oku mitambula ni kumiyupa, mutundemo mututule amaluli ku makondo enu, otenda oupaki kwa onyene.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.”

12Cwale sebeli ata, mukwiyeta aanu nji abake.So they set out and preached that the people should repent.

13Cwale sebeli acita amadimona no kupula, mi sebeli awaa amaati kwawo asikutoma no kupula, mane sebeli abala.They also drove out many demons and healed many of the sick, anointing them with oil.

14Cwale Ombumu Heloda aba ana kuyupa ya Jesu, kakuli elitina lyaye naliku bubaana mi aanu sebeli aamba nji, “Jowani mukolobezi nainguka kwaafu, elibaka aba atenda etimakazo mwa yonyene.”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.”

15Anjili sebeli amba nji, “Yo kame Eliya,” Mi anjili nji omunuhi wa Nyambe, kanyi omunjili no anuhi a Nyambe na kukale.Others were saying, “He is Elijah,” and still others, “He is a prophet, like one of the prophets of old.”

16Kono Heloda aba ana kuyupa ngeeso, sebeli wamba nji, “Yokame Jowani nina kupatula omutwi, nainguka kwaafu!”But when Herod heard this, he said, “John, whom I beheaded, has risen from the dead!”

17Kakuli Heloda yona kutuma aanu okalema Jowani, ni kumununga okumubeka mu tolongo mulibkalya Helodiyasi omoywaa Filipi minaye, kakuli yonaku mukwata.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.

18Jowani kame ana kwambela Heloda nji, “Katukelo yowe okukwata omoywaa minowe!”For John had been telling Herod, “It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife!”

19Kakuli Helodiyasi kame ana kutimba onene Jowani mi sebeli osinga oku mwibaa, kono kame ana kukwangwa omusa mwiibaele.So Herodias held a grudge against John and wanted to kill him. But she had been unable,

20Kakuli Heloda kame ana kucilanga Jowani, mukulimuka nji mulume no kuluka, mi ni wakukena. Mi kame na ku musilelezanga. Aba ana kuyupanga yo amba, kasi kuwabelelwanga mu mucima simba nji kame ana kumu teetetanga.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.

21Ku mamaneneno Helodiyasi sebeli otandala okuwana esibaka, Heloda abana kutenda omukiti no kuleiwa kwaye, mi sesbeli oisanenako amanduna no kuta yaye na kulu no masole na kulu namu Galileya.On Herod’s birthday, her opportunity arose. Herod held a banquet for his nobles and military commanders and the leading men of Galilee.

22Cwale omwana Helodiyasi no mukatana abana kukeela sebeli onenga onene niku wabelisa Heloda naa ana kwikala naye ba tafule. Cwale Ombumu sebeli wambela omukatana munyonyo nji, “Okumbele esi sosinge kwa mene sonje, mi mbani kubi so.”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.”

23Mane sebeli okununga oluci nji, “Esi so kumbele sonje, simba eseemba no mubuso wange mbani kubi.And he swore to her, “Whatever you ask of me, I will give you, up to half my kingdom!”

24Cwale omukatana sebeli ota okaibanguta inawawe nji, “Ni kumbele eikene?” Inawawe sebeli omutambula nji, “Okumbele omutwi wa Jowani omukolobezi.”Then she went out and asked her mother, “What should I request?” And her mother answered, “The head of John the Baptist.”

25Cwale ababo omukatana sebeli oukela kwa Mbumu muwanguwangu ni kukumbela nji, “Kame nisinga nji abano, onibe omutwi wa Jowani omukolobezi mu siwana.”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.”

26Cwale ombumu sebeli weena onene, kono mulibaka no kweeta oluci kwaye na ngenda awo ana kwikala naye, sebeli okwangwa okumatuka amaywi aye.The king was consumed with sorrow, but because of his oaths and his guests, he did not want to refuse her.

27Ababo Ombumu sebeli otuma omunjili no masole no atateleli, niku laela nji akalite omutwi wa Jowani mukolobezi. Woyo sebeli ota nukapatula omutwi wa Jowani mukolobezi mu tolongo,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.

28ni kulita omutwi mu siwana, ni kuuba omukatana, mi omukatana yonyene sebeli ouba inawaye.The man brought John’s head on a platter and presented it to the girl, who gave it to her mother.

29Cwale aiyetwa a Jowani aba ana kuyupa etaba eyo, sebeli aiiya muku shimba esitupu saye oka siteula mu libita.When John’s disciples heard about this, they came and took his body and placed it in a tomb.

30Atumiwa sebeli auka kwa Jesu, oka mwambela yonje eyo ana kutenda neyi ana kwiyeta aanu.Meanwhile, the apostles gathered around Jesus and brought Him news of all they had done and taught.

31Cwale sebeli wamba kwa onyene nji, “Mwiiye, tute ku mukunda muka pumuleko mbicani oku kuulwile aanu. Kakuli kame ku nakwikala aanu no kupula aa na iyanga ni kuuka mane kame ana kukwangwa ni nako no kulya.”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.

32Cwale sebeli ata mu wato okaikala omboci mu sibaka no kondoka.So they went away in a boat by themselves to a solitary place.

33Cwale aanu no kupula sebeli aamona akatile, ni kwalimuka nji anyine, mi sebeli aitukelako ni makondo okutunda mu milenen̄i yonje, mi aanu sebeli aka keelako oweli Jesu na iyetwa aye asili munyima.But many people saw them leaving and recognized them. They ran together on foot from all the towns and arrived before them.

34Cwale Jesu aba ana kutunda mu wato, sebeli omona aanu no kupula, mi sebeli wayupela amakeke, kakuli kame ana kufeka kanyi omukoko nambulwa mulisana. Mi sebeli otangisa okwaiyeta einu no kupula.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.

35Cwale eliywaa aba lina kwiika, aiyetwa aye sebeli aiya kwa yonyene ni kwamba nji, “Sino ni sibaka no kondoka, mi enako yatakale.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.

36Mwaa use, nji aka ku ulele eino kulya mu matema ni mu mindi ili beebi.”Dismiss the crowd so they can go to the surrounding countryside and villages and buy themselves something to eat.”

37Jesu sebeli waatambula nji, “Mwaabe eino kulya mwenyene, Onyene sebeli amwibanguta nji, “Tukaule einkwa no mali a atenda emianda yiili no muwayawaya nji twaabe alye?”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?”

38Cwale Jesu sebeli wamba kwa onyene nji, “Injinga einkwa mukwite? Mute muka imone. Cwale aba anaku imona, sebeli amba nji, “Kame kuli feela einkwa mutanu ni tindi timbili.”“Go and see how many loaves you have,” He told them. And after checking, they said, “Five—and two fish.”

39Cwale sebeli olaela nji, “Aanu onje aikale mu ikwata, ba moopu no musuhela.”Then Jesus directed them to have the people sit in groups on the green grass.

40Cwale aanu sebeli aikala banji mu ikwata, esinjili esikwata no aanu akwana omwaanda, anjili aanu ana ku kwana makumi mutanu.So they sat down in groups of hundreds and fifties.

41Jesu sebeli oshimba einkwa mutanu ni tindi timbili, ni kwaliketa kuwilu, mi sebeli okutumela ni kupatola einkwa okuba aiyetwa aye nji atabele aanu, mi kame ni kutabela aanu etindi.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.

42Cwale onje sebeli alya ni kwikuta.They all ate and were satisfied,

43Cwale sebeli ashimba amatanda likumi na yiili, ana kwiyala oubulumusi no inkwa, nou no tindi.and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces of bread and fish.

44Mi awo ana kulya neli alume ana kukwana eikiti Mutanu (5,000).And there were five thousand men who had eaten the loaves.

45Ababo Jesu sebeli wambela aiyetwa aye nji aingene mu wato nji akutangete okuta mu linjaliya no lisa, ku Betisaida, yonyene yo suusa aanu.Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to Bethsaida, while He dismissed the crowd.

46Osimana felea okuusa aanu sebeli ota ba lilundu oka lapela.After bidding them farewell, He went up on the mountain to pray.

47Cwale enako no mangolwaa aba ina kukwana, owato owendela ba kaci no lisa, mi Jesu yoli yomboci ba likamba.When evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and Jesus was alone on land.

48Mi sebeli omona nji kame apuwa me aziyelehile, kakuli emebo kame ina kwalwisa onene. Mi mu nako no malungasiku, Jesu sebeli oiya kwa onyene yo enda ba meyi, mi sebeli osinga okwabitelela.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,

49Kono aba ana ku mumona yo enda ba meyi no lisa, sebeli akuwa onene nji ni silumba.but when they saw Him walking on the sea, they cried out, thinking He was a ghost—

50Cwale onje sebeli acila aba ana kumumona. Kono sebeli oleluba okwamba noo nji, “Mu koongote, ya meene, mu lese kucila.”for they all saw Him and were terrified. But Jesus spoke up at once: “Take courage! It is I. Do not be afraid.”

51Cwale sebeli oku longa mu wato nonyene, mi emebo sebeli yondoka. Cwale aiyetwa aye sebeli akomoka onene.Then He climbed into the boat with them, and the wind died down. And the disciples were utterly astounded,

52Kakuli kasi ku yupisisa etaluso no kufepa aanu no kupula bokame abo emicima yoo kame ina koongola.for they had not understood about the loaves, but their hearts had been hardened.

53Cwale aba ana kumana okuluta elisa ni kuta ba likamba, mi sebeli akeela mu naha iisaniwa Genesaleta mi sebeli afuweka ku likamba.When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret and moored the boat.

54Mi abana kutunda mu wato, ababo aanu sebeli amu limuka.As soon as they got out of the boat, the people recognized Jesus

55Cwale sebeli aitukela mu naha yonje ni kutangisa okalita asikutoma onje oko ana kuyupa nji Jesu kwaali.and ran through that whole region, carrying the sick on mats to wherever they heard He was.

56Mi konje Jesu oku ana ku bita, mu mindi icana ni mu mindi inene, simba mwibaka no matema, asi kutoma kame ana kubeekiwa ba tipatelo, mi aanu kame ana kukumbela nji aa pumenene oku lema feela simba ku mungundo no sikumango saye, mi aa amulema onje kame abala.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.
