Matthew 14 (MSY2020)

1Dughiar kamɨn Galilin Distrighɨn Atrivim Herot, a Iesus amizir araziba baregha, kamaghɨn uan ingangarir gumazibav gei, “Gumazir kam ti, Gumazamiziba Ruer Gumazim Jon, an aremegha ua dɨkafi. Kamaghɨn a mirakelbar amuamin gavgavim iti.”At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the reports about Jesus

3Herot fo, a faragha uan dozimɨn Filipɨn amuim Herodias inigha an iti. Ezɨ Jon bizir kam bagha Herot mɨgɨavɨra ikia ghaze, “Nɨ arazir kuram gamua uan dozimɨn amuim inigha an iti.” Ezɨ Herot bizir kam bagha Jonɨn suiragha a ikegha a isava kalabus gatɨ.Now Herod had arrested John and bound him and put him in prison on account of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife,

5Egha a mɨsueghtɨ an aremeghasa nɨghnɨsi. Egha a gumazamizibar atiatingi. A fo, me ghaze, Jon Godɨn akam inigha izir gumazim.Although Herod wanted to kill John, he was afraid of the people, because they regarded John as a prophet.

6Ezɨ aruer mamɨn gumazir maba iza Herotɨn gara, an amebam a batezir dughiam gɨnɨghnɨgha, a koma apa iti. Ezɨ Herodiasɨn guivim men guamɨn ighiam gizi. Ezɨ Herot bar an ighiam bagha bar akonge.On Herod’s birthday, however, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod

7Egha Herot dafarim overiamɨn akuigha kamaghɨn a mɨgei, “Bar guizbangɨra, nɨ bizir manam gifongegh nan azaraghtɨ, kɨ bizir kam nɨ danigham.”so much that he promised with an oath to give to her whatever she asked.

8Ezɨ Herodias nɨghnɨziba uan guivim ganɨngi, ezɨ guivim ghua kamaghɨn Herot mɨgei, “Nɨ Jon, Gumazamiziba Ruer Gumazimɨn dapanim isɨ itaritam dafagh a inigh izɨ na danɨngigh.”Prompted by her mother, she said, “Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist.”

9Atrivim akar kam baregha bar oseme. Egha a fo, a uabɨ gumazir a ko itibar damazimɨn akar gavgavim gamigha, kamaghɨn, an aghumsɨzim inian aghua. Egha a mɨdorozir gumaziba akar gavgavim me ganɨngizɨma me guivim mɨkemezɨ moghɨn ami.The king was grieved, but because of his oaths and his guests, he ordered that her wish be granted

10A gumazir mam amadazɨma, a ghua kalabusɨn mɨdorozir gumazibav kemezɨ, me Jonɨn fɨrim atu.and sent to have John beheaded in the prison.

11Egha Jonɨn dapanim itarir mam dafagha, guivim bagha a inigha iza a ganɨngi. Ezɨ an a inigha ghua uan amebam ganɨngi.John’s head was brought in on a platter and presented to the girl, who carried it to her mother.

12Ezɨ Jonɨn suren gumaziba iza an kuam inigha ghua anefa. Me anefagha gɨvagha ghua Iesus mɨkeme.Then John’s disciples came and took his body and buried it. And they went and informed Jesus.

13Ezɨ Iesus kamaghɨn oraki, me Jonɨn fɨrim atuzɨma an areme. Ezɨ a nguibar kam ategha kurim inigha uan suren gumaziba ko, gumazamiziba puvatɨzir danganir mamɨn ghu. Ezɨ gumazamizir avɨrim orazima, a danganir kamɨn ghu. Ezɨ me nguibar ekiam ategha, a buria uan suebar zui.When Jesus heard about John, He withdrew by boat privately to a solitary place. But the crowds found out about it and followed Him on foot from the towns.

14Ezɨ Iesus ghua dɨpar dadarimɨn otogha garima, gumazamizir bar avɨriba iti. Ezɨ a men apangkuva men gumazamizibar arɨmariaba akɨra da gefi.When He stepped ashore and saw a large crowd, He had compassion on them and healed their sick.

15Aruem gevima, Iesusɨn suren gumaziba iza kamaghɨn a mɨgei, “Kar gumazamiziba puvatɨzir danganim, ezɨ amɨnim pɨrasava ami. Kamaghɨn amizɨ, nɨ gumazamiziba amangɨtɨ, me mangɨ nguibabar uari bagh daghebagh ivez.”When evening came, the disciples came to Him and said, “This is a desolate place, and the hour is already late. Dismiss the crowds so they can go to the villages and buy themselves some food.”

16Ezɨ Iesus uan suren gumaziba kamaghɨn me mɨgei, “Me tizim bagh mangam? Ia uari daghetaba me danɨng.”“They do not need to go away,” Jesus replied. “You give them something to eat.”

17Ezɨ me ghaze, “E bar bretɨn rubuzir 5pla ko osirir pumuningra iti.”“We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered.

18Ezɨ a ghaze, “Ia bretba ko osirimning inigh izɨ.”“Bring them here to Me,” Jesus said.

19Egha Iesus gumazamizibav geima, me grazim gapia. Ezɨ a 5plan bretba ko osirir pumuning inigha kogha overiamɨn gara Afeziam mɨnabi. Egha bretba bɨgha uan suren gumazibagh anɨngi. Ezɨ an suren gumaziba da isava gumazamizibagh anɨdi.And He directed the crowds to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, He spoke a blessing. Then He broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.

20Ezɨ gumazamizir kaba bar amegha, naviba bar izefe. Ezɨ dagher naba itima, me da akuvagha 12plan akɨrabagh aghui.They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.

21Gumazir amezibar dɨbobonim 5,000ɨn tu. Me amiziba ko boriba dɨponezir puvatɨ.About five thousand men were fed, besides women and children.

22Ezɨ Iesus uan suren gumaziba amaga me mɨgɨa ghaze, me faragh bot inigh dɨpamɨn vongɨn mangɨ. A uabɨ ikɨ gumazamiziba amangam.Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to the other side, while He dismissed the crowds.

23A gumazamiziba amadagha, egha uabɨra ikia God ko mɨkɨmasa mɨghsɨamɨn ghuavanabo. Ezɨ amɨnim pɨrizɨma, Iesus uabɨra iti.After He had dismissed them, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. When evening came, He was there alone,

24Ezɨ bot dadarimɨn saghon ghuzɨma, amɨnim botɨn guamɨn dɨkavigha me givaima ongarim men bot mɨsosi.but the boat was already far from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it.

25Ezɨ amɨnim tiasava amima, Iesus dɨpam gisɨn arua uan suren gumaziba bagha zui.During the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went out to them, walking on the sea.

26Me garima, Iesus dɨpam gisɨn izima, me bar puv atiatiava agoa ghaze, kar ti duam. Egha atiatiava arai.When the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost!” they said, and cried out in fear.

27Ezɨ Iesus zuamɨra me mɨgɨa ghaze, “Ia gavgafigh, kar kɨrara. Ia atiatingan markɨ!”But Jesus spoke up at once: “Take courage! It is I. Do not be afraid.”

28Ezɨ Pita an akam ikaragha kamaghɨn mɨgei, “Ekiam, guizbangɨra nɨrara, nɨ na mɨkemeghtɨ, kɨ dɨpam gisɨn nɨ bagh mangam.”“Lord, if it is You,” Peter replied, “command me to come to You on the water.”

29Ezɨ Iesus ghaze, “Nɨ izɨ.” Ezɨ Pita bot ategha dɨpam gisɨn Iesus bagha zui.“Come,” said Jesus. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water, and came toward Jesus.

30A ghua amɨnir gavgavimɨn gari, a bar ekevezɨma an atiatia dɨpamɨn aven ghuaghiri. Egha dei, “Ekiam, nɨ nan akuragh!”But when he saw the strength of the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!”

31Ezɨ Iesus zuamɨra uan agharim amadagha Pitan suira. Egha kamaghɨn Pitan mɨgei, “Nɨn nɨghnɨzir gavgavim sufi. Nɨ tizim bagha okam nɨghnɨsi?”Immediately Jesus reached out His hand and took hold of Peter. “You of little faith,” He said, “why did you doubt?”

32Egha aning me gatɨn botɨn ghuavanabo, ezɨ amɨnim pura gɨfa.And when they had climbed back into the boat, the wind died down.

33Ezɨ botɨn itir gumaziba Iesusɨn ziam fa ghaze, “Bar guizbangɨra, nɨ Godɨn Otarim!”Then those who were in the boat worshiped Him, saying, “Truly You are the Son of God!”

34Egha Iesus uan suren gumaziba ko dɨpamɨn vongɨn ghugha, ghua Genesaretɨn nguibamɨn otifi.When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret.

35Ezɨ kagh itir darazi Iesusɨn gara a gɨfo. Egha akam amadazɨ, a nguibar roghɨra itibar ghuzɨ, me arɨmariaba itir darazi bar me inigha Iesus bagha ize.And when the men of that place recognized Jesus, they sent word to all the surrounding region. People brought all the sick to Him

36Egha me a gakaghora ghaze, a men asughtɨma, arɨmariaba itiba an korotiar avɨzibar suigham. Ezɨ gumazamizir an korotiamɨn suiziba, men arɨmariaba gɨfa.and begged Him just to let them touch the fringe of His cloak. And all who touched Him were healed.
