Mark 2 (MKW) · Opened

1Na manima ya mwa bilumbu, Yesu vutukaka na mbanza Kapenawume, mpe bantu kuwaka ti yandi vwandaka na kati ya yinzo.A few days later Jesus went back to Capernaum. And when the people heard that He was home,

2Nkonga ya bantu vukanaka, mpe bisika manisaka na kati ya yinzo tii na ntwala ya mwelo. Yesu vwandaka longisa bawu mambu ya Nzambi.they gathered in such large numbers that there was no more room, not even outside the door, as Jesus spoke the word to them.

3Mwa bantu kwizaka kuna, mpe natinaka yandi kikata yina bantu yiya vwandaka nata.Then a paralytic was brought to Him, carried by four men.

4Kasi bawu vwandaka lenda ve na kulakisa yandi na sika ya Yesu samu ti bantu lutilaka mingi. Na yina, bawu yulukaka na muludi mpe tobolaka yawu na kisika yina vwandaka Yesu. Bawu kulumunaka kipoyi yina mbevo vwandaka ya kulala.Since they were unable to get to Jesus through the crowd, they uncovered the roof above Him, made an opening, and lowered the paralytic on his mat.

5Ntangu Yesu talaka kiminu ya bantu yina, yandi tubaka na kikata: «Mwana ya munu, Nge me kuzwa mulemvo ya masumu ya nge.»When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Son, your sins are forgiven.”

6Mwa milongisi ya Misiku vwandaka kuna, mpe vwandaka banza na kati ya bantima ya bawu:But some of the scribes were sitting there and thinking in their hearts,

7«Samu na yinki muntu yayi ke na kuzonza mutindu yina? Yandi ke na kusafula Nzambi. Kaka ni Nzambi lenda kulemvokila muntu masumu.»“Why does this man speak like this? He is blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

8Yesu zabaka mbangu mabanza ya bawu, mpe zabisaka bawu: «Samu na yinki beno ke na mabanza ya mutindu yina?At once Jesus knew in His spirit that they were thinking this way within themselves. “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?” He asked.

9Yinki me lutila mpasi na kutuba na kikata: “Nge me kuzwa mulemvo ya masumu ya nge” to: “Baka kipoyi ya nge, mpe tambula”?“Which is easier: to say to a paralytic, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up, pick up your mat, and walk’?

10Kasi mu zola ti beno zaba ti Mwana ya Muntu kele na lutumu ya kulemvokila masumu awa na ntoto.» Na yina, yandi tubaka na kikata:But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins...” He said to the paralytic,

11«Mu ke na kuzabisa nge: Telama, baka kipoyi ya nge, mpe kwenda na yinzo ya nge.»“I tell you, get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”

12Kaka na ntangu yina, yandi telamaka, mpe bakaka kipoyi ya yandi. Yandi basikaka na meso ya bantu nyonso, mpe bawu yitukaka. Bawu vwandaka kembila Nzambi, mpe vwandaka tuba: «Nabunu beto tala mambu ya mutindu yayi.»And immediately the man got up, picked up his mat, and walked out in front of them all. As a result, they were all astounded and glorified God, saying, “We have never seen anything like this!”

13Yesu vutukaka na kumu ya dyanga ya Ngalili. Bantu mingi kwizaka na sika ya yandi, mpe yandi vwandaka longisa bawu.Once again Jesus went out beside the sea. All the people came to Him, and He taught them there.

14Ntangu yandi vwandaka luta, yandi talaka Levi mwana ya Alefe, ya kuvwanda na kisika yina ba ke futaka mpaku. Yesu zabisaka yandi: «Landa munu!» Levi telamaka mpe landaka yandi.As He was walking along, He saw Levi son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him, and Levi got up and followed Him.

15Yesu kwendaka kudya na yinzo ya Levi. Bilokoti-mpaku mingi mpe bantu mingi ya nkadulu ya yimbi vwandaka kudya kintwadi na Yesu mpe bilandi ya yandi. Ya tsyelika, bantu mingi ya mutindu yina vwandaka landa yandi.While Jesus was dining at Levi’s house, many tax collectors and sinners were eating with Him and His disciples—for there were many who followed Him.

16Ntangu milongisi ya Misiku yina vwandaka na kati ya kimvuka ya ba-Falisye talaka ti Yesu vwandaka kudya kintwadi na bantu yina, bawu tubaka na bilandi ya yandi: «Samu na yinki yandi ke na kudya kintwadi na bilokoti-mpaku mpe bantu ya masumu?»When the scribes who were Pharisees saw Jesus eating with these people, they asked His disciples, “Why does He eat with tax collectors and sinners?”

17Yesu kuwaka bawu mpe tubaka: «Bantu ya mavimpi ya mbote kele ve na nsatu ya dokotolo, kasi ni bambevo kele na nsatu ya yandi. Mu me kwiza ve samu na kubokila bantu ya kudedama, kasi misumuki.»On hearing this, Jesus told them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”

18Kilumbu mosi, bilandi ya Yowane Mubotiki mpe ba-Falisye mangaka na kudya samu na Nzambi. Na yina, bantu kwizaka yufula Yesu: «Samu na yinki bilandi ya Yowane mpe ya ba-Falisye ke mangaka na kudya samu na Nzambi, kasi bilandi ya nge ke salaka yawu ve?»Now John’s disciples and the Pharisees were often fasting. So people came to Jesus and asked, “Why don’t Your disciples fast like John’s disciples and those of the Pharisees?”

19Yesu vutulaka: «Beno banza ti bantu yina ba me bokila na mukembo ya makwela lenda kumanga na kudya ntangu mulumi ke ntete na kati-kati ya bawu? Ve, ntangu nyonso yina mulumi kele na kati-kati ya bawu, bawu lenda kumanga ve na kudya.Jesus replied, “How can the guests of the bridegroom fast while He is with them? As long as He is with them, they cannot fast.

20Kasi bilumbu ke kwiza yina ba ke katula bawu mulumi. Na bilumbu yina, bawu ke manga na kudya samu na Nzambi.But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.

21Ata muntu ke bakaka kitende ya lele ya malu-malu samu na kulonda kinkuti ya ntama. Kana ve, kitende ya malu-malu ke pasula yawu, mpe dibulu ke lutila nene.No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment. If he does, the new piece will pull away from the old, and a worse tear will result.

22Ata muntu ke tulaka vinu ya malu-malu na basaki ya ntama ya mpusu ya kibulu. Kana ve vinu ke pasula yawu. Vinu ke mwangana mpe basaki ke beba. Kasi ba ke tulaka vinu ya malu-malu na kati ya basaki ya malu-malu ya mpusu ya kibulu.»And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. Instead, new wine is poured into new wineskins.”

23Na kilumbu ya Saba, Yesu vwandaka luta na kati ya bilanga ya bambuma ya faline, mpe bilandi ya yandi vwandaka buka bambuma ntangu bawu vwandaka luta.One Sabbath Jesus was passing through the grainfields, and His disciples began to pick the heads of grain as they walked along.

24Na yina, ba-Falisye tubaka na Yesu: «Tala bilandi ya nge, Samu na yinki bawu ke na kusala mambu yina misiku ke yiminaka na kilumbu ya Saba?»So the Pharisees said to Him, “Look, why are they doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?”

25Yesu vutulaka: «Beno me tangaka ntete ve mambu yina Davidi salaka kilumbu yina yandi mpe bantu ya yandi vwandaka na nsatu, mpe vwandaka ve na kima ya kudya?Jesus replied, “Have you never read what David did when he and his companions were hungry and in need?

26Ntangu Abyatale vwandaka nganga-Nzambi ya ntete, yandi kotaka na Yinzo ya Nzambi, mpe kudyaka mampa yina pesamaka mutindu munkayulu na Nzambi. Misiku ya beto ke pesaka kaka muswa na banganga-Nzambi na kudya yawu. Kasi Davidi bakaka yawu, mpe kabulaka yawu na bantu ya yandi.»During the high priesthood of Abiathar, he entered the house of God and ate the consecrated bread, which was lawful only for the priests. And he gave some to his companions as well.”

27Yesu zabisaka dyaka bawu: «Nzambi yidikaka ve muntu samu na Saba, kasi yandi salaka kilumbu ya Saba samu na muntu.Then Jesus declared, “The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.

28Ni yawu yina, Mwana ya Muntu kele mfumu ya Saba.»Therefore, the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”
