Mark 6 (MGH2016)

1Yesu nkaathama wowo, nkahokolhia uwannyawe, attwariyaka ni owiittucha awe.Jesus went on from there and came to His hometown, accompanied by His disciples.

2Nihuku no Wiittuwa nkaachokholha wiittuchiha wi inupa yo unlhapelha Nlhuku. Attu enchi aari mwommo, veewelhenlhe aya nkayaashangacha ni wiikoha, “Yolha pantte vayi chechilha irusho chilha? Apani anvanhee ikuru yo upanga cho ushangiha chi?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?

3Ama! Ulha kahiwe phi yolhe nokooroshacha milhako ni ihiche ulhe, mwaana a Amariamu, munnaya ashi Yakhobo ni Nayose ni Nayuda ni Nasimoni? Ashirokorawe kahiwena phi alha ninaakhalhana ihu alha?” Paahi etu nkayankhota.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.

4Yesu nkaahimeria wiira, “Namilhohi nottuniya ilhapo chonkhaye, yaahikhalhe uwannyawe ni wa amuchi awe.”Then Jesus said to them, “Only in his hometown, among his relatives, and in his own household is a prophet without honor.”

5Yesu khaapannge cho ushangiha vavawo, ihikalhe yo weeshera miono areta vakani nkaalhamiha.So He could not perform any miracles there, except to lay His hands on a few of the sick and heal them.

6Nkaashanga chinene, ukhalhawaya attu khayaari ni nrima. Yesu nkaavira eetakachaka iwani cho vakhiviru, eetuchihaka attu Malhove Orera.And He was amazed at their unbelief. And He went around from village to village, teaching the people.

7Nkeehana owiittucha awe khumi ni elhi, ni waaruma elhielhi. Nkaavaha ikuru yo woomolha mashoka o unanaraThen Jesus called the Twelve to Him and began to send them out two by two, giving them authority over unclean spirits.

8nkaalhehera wiira, “Vanorwaa inyu nhikushe ittu iriyoothe, nhiwie nrupa mena mashurupu mena nchurukhu vachiroroni, ihikalhe ikopo mmathathani.He instructed them to take nothing but a staff for the journey—no bread, no bag, no money in their belts—

9Mmwareke ikwakwata mmietoni, nansho nhikushe mwiinjiro wo nayelhi.”and to wear sandals, but not a second tunic.

10Nkaahimeria tho wiira, “Vanophiya inyu vawani vanopocheria inyu, mwakhalheke vavawo mpaka vanohalha inyu uthama vawo.And He told them, “When you enter a house, stay there until you leave that area.

11Vawani vahinopocheriya inyu ama uwiwelhelhani uhimiechesha winyu, mwathameke wo uhipicha uno ni ukukutta ntukurukhu nnyaani mwinyu wo waamuka!”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.”

12Paahi etu nkayaarwaa uwaahimiacherani attu iphiro cho ukhoroma ni uhiya uwonya.So they set out and preached that the people should repent.

13Nkayoomolhacha mashoka enchi o unanara, ni waahika makhura areta enchi, ni waalhamiha.They also drove out many demons and healed many of the sick, anointing them with oil.

14Paahi amwene Naherode o Ugalilaya nkayeewa mwaha wonkhaye, ukhalhawaya nchina na Yesu naari niwanelhaka ilhapo yonkhaye. Nkawaakhalha attu akina eera wiira, “Nayohana Obatiiza ahohihimmwa! Phi ayo ari ni ikuru cho upangacha cho ushangiha chi.”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.”

15Ni attu akina eera, “Alha phi Naeliya.” Akhwawe nkayeera, “Ulha phi namilhohi, rii thoko mmoka a anamilhohi o khalhayi.”Others were saying, “He is Elijah,” and still others, “He is a prophet, like one of the prophets of old.”

16Nansho Naherode veewilhe aya ni ayo nkayeera, “Yalha phi Nayohana Obatiiza, kaahinthe aka alhe! Nansho vano ahohihimmwa!”But when Herod heard this, he said, “John, whom I beheaded, has risen from the dead!”

17Ukhalhawaya Naherode phi alhehenre uvariya u Nayohana, ni waattuka ujeerani. Naherode enre chiicho wo nlhatu ni Naherodiya, aathenlhe aya, achuwelhaka wiira yaari ahanu a Nafilipo ahima aya Naherode ayo.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.

18Nayohana ahaamuka Naherode wiira “Vavawo khampannge ittu yo urera ukelha manupa wa ahima inyu!”For John had been telling Herod, “It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife!”

19Chiichammo etu, Naherodiya ahorushiya chinene athananaka weeva Nayohana nansho wo uhoria oovaka Naherode.So Herodias held a grudge against John and wanted to kill him. But she had been unable,

20Naherode aari oovaka Nayohana, ukhalhawaya ahochuwelha wiira aari ntu ntakatifu, ntu o nrima woombone, paahi etu nkeenanelha. Nkaachivelhiya weewelhelha, nansho uno achukulhaka munrimani wo malhove aahimeriya aya.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.

21Nkanaawa nihuku Naherodiya vaapantte aya nipesha. Naari nihuku no wuupuwelhiya uyaria u Naherode, vaalhatulhiye aya attu uwa uttapelhelhani. Yaalhatulhiye attu yaavara mitheko chulhupalhe, ni aholhelhi o Ugalilaya.On Herod’s birthday, her opportunity arose. Herod held a banquet for his nobles and military commanders and the leading men of Galilee.

22Mwaamwanaya Naherodiya mwalhi, ahowa wiina vavawo, nkaatelhiha Naherode vamoka ni alheto aya onkhaye. Wo uteelhiya chinene, Amwene Naherode nkaamwirelha mwalhi uyo, “Unothanana kuuttuveke ishiyani? Uvekelheke ittu iriyoothe unothanana awo kinouvaha.”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.”

23Nkayaalhupelha ni umwiirelha mwalhi uyo, “Kinoulhupelha wiira kinouvaha ittu iriyoothe unovekelha awo, inakhalhaka unvekelha umeelhiya inusu yo imwene aka!”And he swore to her, “Whatever you ask of me, I will give you, up to half my kingdom!”

24Mwalhi uyo nkaarwa wa anumwanawe ni waakoha “Kavekelhekeni?” Nkaamwakhulha, “Muru u Nayohana Obatiiza.”Then she went out and asked her mother, “What should I request?” And her mother answered, “The head of John the Baptist.”

25Nkaahokolhia wo waakuviaa wa Amwene ni uvekelha, “Kinothanana nkivahe naanano va muru u Nayohana Obatiiza mphacheni!”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.”

26Amwene nkayaakelhiya ihuzuni chinene, nansho wo nlhatu wo ulhupelha waalhupenlhe aya, ni alheto yaakhalhanche vakaraamuni alhe, khayonrie unkhotelha.The king was consumed with sorrow, but because of his oaths and his guests, he did not want to refuse her.

27Paahi nkaayanlhehera nsikari arwee awiihe muru u Nayohana. Nsikari nkaarwa, nkaahitha Nayohana,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.

28nkaawiha muru mphacheni nkammaha mwaamwana a Naherodiya, ni uyo nkaavaha anumwanawe.The man brought John’s head on a platter and presented it to the girl, who gave it to her mother.

29Owiittucha a Nayohana nkayeewa, nkayaawa ni ukusha iruttu aya, nkayaavitha umahiyeni.When John’s disciples heard about this, they came and took his body and placed it in a tomb.

30Akarumiya nkayaahokolhiacha wa Yesu, nkayaahimiacha chittu chonkhaye chapannge aya ni weetuchiha attu.Meanwhile, the apostles gathered around Jesus and brought Him news of all they had done and taught.

31Attu yaawaachilhe aari milhoko minchi cha attu, Yesu ni owiittucha awe nkayoochelha ukhalha ni ulhia yolhia. Paahi nkeehanacha ni uwerelha wiira, “Nkanngwe neevithe mwiittuwe vakani.”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.

32Nkayaawelhacha nkalhavani nkaarwa vakittu vo wiivitha.So they went away in a boat by themselves to a solitary place.

33Nansho attu enchi nkayoona Yesu ni owiittucha awe vaathama aya nkayaachuwelha waarwaa aya, paahi nkayantwarelhelha wowo attimakachaka ni uphiya Yesu ni owiittucha awe ahinaphiyacha.But many people saw them leaving and recognized them. They ran together on foot from all the towns and arrived before them.

34Yesu vaakhuruwa awe nkalhavani, nkoona nlhoko mulhupalhe wa attu, nrima awe nkawaakelhiya ikiriri, ukhalhawaya attu yaari ahuvaka thoko ikhondoro chihiri ni nshunga. Paahi etu nkaachokholha weettuchiha chittu chinchi.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.

35Nchuwa veelha aya, owiittucha awe nkayanrweelha ni unhimeria wiira, “Uheelha vano, ni va vakittu va vauthakoni.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.

36Mwaahiyeke attu ayo wiira ahokolhie mmawannyaya ni mmamatani mmo arwee athume choolhia.”Dismiss the crowd so they can go to the surrounding countryside and villages and buy themselves something to eat.”

37Nansho Yesu nkaakhulha eeraka, “Mwaavaheke yolhia mwaattiva.” Owiittucha ayo nkayaakoha, “Nnothana wiira nirweeke nathumeke yolhia cho idinari imia pilhi?”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?”

38Yesu nkaakohacha, “Nrina mikatte nchani? Nkarwaani mwaweheke.” Vaawenhe aya nkayaakhulha, “Chiri mikatte nthanu ni ihopa pilhi.”“Go and see how many loaves you have,” He told them. And after checking, they said, “Five—and two fish.”

39Yesu nkaalhehera owiittucha awe tho wiira aanyulhacheke attu onkhaye ni waakhalhiha vathi vamanyashini.Then Jesus directed them to have the people sit in groups on the green grass.

40Attu nkaakhalhihiya mmapuroni, va imia imoka, akina mapuro a attu makhumi nthanu.So they sat down in groups of hundreds and fifties.

41Yesu nkaakusha mikatte nthanu ni ihopa pilhi chiyo, nkaaweha miitho wiirimu ni unlhapelhelha Nlhuku. Nkaamianihacha ni waavaha owiittucha awe wiira yaakawelhacheke attu. Ni ihopa pilhi chiyo nkeera chiicho.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.

42Attu onkhaye nkayaalhia ni uwona.They all ate and were satisfied,

43Paahi owiittucha nkayaarokottacha mahalhahalha o mikatte ni ihopa alhe, nkaakushacha ni uchariha makaya khumi ni melhi.and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces of bread and fish.

44Milhoko cha manyaalhopwana chaalhilhie chaari attu maelufu nthanu.And there were five thousand men who had eaten the loaves.

45Yamalhekeru Yesu nkaakhanyereriha owiittucha awe awelhe nkalhavani anholhelhe Ubethsaida, ukhopelhelhe nttiya, uyo aahiyaka ni waalheha attu.Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to Bethsaida, while He dismissed the crowd.

46Vaamanlhe awe waalheha attu nkaawelha umwaakoni ulhapelhani.After bidding them farewell, He went up on the mountain to pray.

47Vaari aya uchechilho, ikalhava yaari variyari nttiya, ni Yesu aari vekha awe hinalhapuwa.When evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and Jesus was alone on land.

48Nkoona wiira owiittucha awe yaari athemwihiyaka ni iphioo, paahi vaatameria aya mapikoosha nkaawa, eetaka vachulhu maashi. Aari aatameriaka waaphwanya,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,

49vaamwona aya eetaka vachulhu maashi, nkayaanyihera wiira aari “Nshoka!” Nkayaakhuwelhacha.but when they saw Him walking on the sea, they cried out, thinking He was a ghost—

50Onkhaye yaari yoovaka chinene vaamwonne aya. Yesu nkoolhumacha eeraka, “Nvareke nrima! Phi mii Nhoove!”for they all saw Him and were terrified. But Jesus spoke up at once: “Take courage! It is I. Do not be afraid.”

51Nkaawelha nkalhavani, iphioo nkayaamaalha. Owiittucha ayo aari anoomiye uwanoni,Then He climbed into the boat with them, and the wind died down. And the disciples were utterly astounded,

52ukhalhawaya aari bado ahinachuwelhacha mwaha wo mikatte nthanu waalhiha attu maelufu nthanu. Mirima chaya chaari chihinachuwelha.for they had not understood about the loaves, but their hearts had been hardened.

53Nkayaalhapuwa nttiya ni uphiya ilhapo yo Ugenesareti, veemenshe aya ikalhava.When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret and moored the boat.

54Attu nkayanchuwelha Yesu vaakhuruwa awe nkalhavani.As soon as they got out of the boat, the people recognized Jesus

55Nkayaarwaa ilhapo yonkhaye iyo, kila eewa wiira howa, nkaawiha areta aari mmalhilhini ni waarweha wowo.and ran through that whole region, carrying the sick on mats to wherever they heard He was.

56Nkaaviravira mmamatani ni mmawani mwonkhaye aalhamihaka attu aathalhelhiye mmapuwani mwaavira awe, akina anlhepelhaka inakhalhaka ammare ikuwo chawe, ni ayo ammanre onkhaye aholhama.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.
