Matthew 15 (MSY2020)

1Dughiar kamɨn Farisin maba ko Judan Arazibagh fozir gumazir maba Jerusalem ategha Iesus bagha ize. Egha me kamagh an azai,Then some Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked,

2“Manmaghɨn amizɨ, nɨn suren gumaziba en ovaviba anɨngzir arazibar gɨn zuir puvatɨ? Egha me damasa uan dafariba ruer puvatɨ.”“Why do Your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They do not wash their hands before they eat.”

3Ezɨ Iesus men akam ikaragha kamaghɨn me mɨgei, “Manmagh amigha ia Godɨn Arazibar gɨn zuir puvatɨ, egha uan arazibar gɨn zui?Jesus replied, “And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition?

4E fo, God ghaze, ‘Ia uan afeziaba ko amebabar akaba baragh men apengan ikɨ.’ Egha ghaze, ‘Gumazitam akar kuratam uan afeziam ko amebam mɨkemeghtɨ, ia gumazir kam mɨsueghtɨ, an aremegh.’For God said, ‘Honor your father and mother’ and ‘Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.’

5Ezɨ ia kamaghɨn mɨgei, ‘Gumazitam uan amebam ko afeziamɨn akurvaghsɨ dagɨaba atɨgha, egha ua gɨn aningɨn akuraghan aghuagha, kamaghɨn aning mɨgei, “Kɨ guan akuraghasa atɨzir dagɨaba, gua markɨ. Kɨ da isɨ God danɨngam.” ’ A kamaghɨn mɨkɨmɨva, amebam ko afeziam gɨnɨghnɨgh deragh aningɨn akurvaghan kogham.But you say that if anyone says to his father or mother, ‘Whatever you would have received from me is a gift devoted to God,’

6Ia kamaghɨn amua, ian arazir kabar, ia Godɨn Araziba ategha, uan ovavibar araziba faraghavɨra darɨsi. Egha Godɨn akam gamima, a mati pura bizim.he need not honor his father or mother with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition.

7“Ia uarira uarigh gifarir gumazibara! Godɨn akam inigha izezir gumazim Aisaia guizbangɨra ian arazibar gun kamaghɨn mɨgei,You hypocrites! Isaiah prophesied correctly about you:

8‘Gumazamizir kaba, me uan akatoribar nan ziam fe, egha men naviba ko nɨghnɨziba bar saghon iti.‘These people honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me.

9Me gumazibar akabar uari sure gamua uari gifara egha ghaze, kar Godɨn akam. Kamaghɨn amizɨ, me nan ziam guizbangɨra a fer puvatɨ.’ ”They worship Me in vain; they teach as doctrine the precepts of men.’”

10Egha Iesus gumazamizibar diazɨma me a bagha izima a kamaghɨn me mɨgei, “Ia oragh, egh deragh nɨghnɨgh!Jesus called the crowd to Him and said, “Listen and understand.

11Bizir gumazamizibar akatoribar ikegha ghuaghiriba, da me gamima, me Godɨn damazimɨn mɨzezir puvatɨ. Bizir navibar ikia akatoribar otiviba, da gumazamizibagh amima, me Godɨn damazimɨn mɨze.”A man is not defiled by what enters his mouth, but by what comes out of it.”

12Ezɨ gɨn an suren gumaziba iza kamaghɨn a mɨgɨa ghaze, “Nɨ ti kamaghɨn fo, Farisiba nɨ mɨkemezir mɨgɨrɨgɨam baregha men muriaba bar ikufi?”Then the disciples came to Him and said, “Are You aware that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this?”

13Ezɨ Iesus me ikaragha ghaze, “Nan afeziar uan Nguibamɨn itim, an azenim iti. Egha bizir a dɨkezir puvatɨziba, a biba sara da asiam.But Jesus replied, “Every plant that My heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by its roots.

14Ia gumazir kabagh nɨghnɨghan markɨ. Me damazir okavɨrɨziba, egha me tuavim isava gumazir igharazimɨn akakasi. Eghtɨ gumazir damazir okavɨrɨzim tuavim isava gumazir okavɨrɨzir mamɨn akakagh, egh aning vɨrara mangɨ mozimɨn magɨrɨgham.”Disregard them! They are blind guides. If a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.”

15Ezɨ Pita Iesusɨn azai, “Nɨ gumazamizibav kemezir akar isɨn zuimɨn mɨngarim e bagh anebightɨ, e a gɨfogham?”Peter said to Him, “Explain this parable to us.”

16Ezɨ Iesus ghaze, “Manmagh ami, ia ti uaghan gumazir igharazibar mɨrara fozir puvatɨghavɨra iti.“Do you still not understand?” Jesus asked.

17Ia ti kamaghɨn fozir puvatɨ, bizir akatorimɨn aven zuiba ghua navimɨn zuima, muriam da batozima, ezɨ gumazim dagh avi.“Do you not yet realize that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then is eliminated?

18Ezɨ bizir akatoribar otiviba da nɨghnɨzimɨn ikegha ize. Egha da gumazamizibagh amima, me Godɨn damazimɨn mɨze.But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these things defile a man.

19Kɨ gumazamizibar nɨghnɨzibar otivir bizir kabav gei, nɨghnɨzir kuraba, ko gumazibav soagharɨzir araziba, ko gumazamiziba tintinibar uari isava akuir araziba, ko poroghamiba uari bakeir araziba, ko okɨmakɨar araziba, ko kotiabar gumazamizibagh ifarir araziba, ko gumazamizibar ziabagh asɨghasɨzir araziba.For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, and slander.

20Arazir kaba gumazamizibagh amima, me Godɨn damazimɨn mɨze. Gumazamiziba dafariba ruer puvatɨgha api, arazir kam me gamima me Godɨn damazimɨn mɨzezir puvatɨ.”These are what defile a man, but eating with unwashed hands does not defile him.”

21Ezɨ Iesus nguibar kam ategha ghua nguibar ekiamning Taia ko Saidonɨn nguazimɨn ghu.Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the district of Tyre and Sidon.

22Ezɨ Kenanian amizir mam danganir kamɨn ikegha iza kamaghɨn dei, “Ekiam, nɨ Devitɨn Otarim, nɨ nan apangkuvigh! Duar kuram nan guivim gapazagha a gasɨghasɨsi.”And a Canaanite woman from that region came to Him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is miserably possessed by a demon.”

23Ezɨ Iesus mɨgɨrɨgɨatamɨn a ikarazir puvatɨ. Ezɨ an suren gumaziba a bagha iza a mɨgɨa ghaze, “Amizir kam dɨaghdiagha en gɨn izi. Nɨ anemadaghtɨ a mangɨ.”But Jesus did not answer a word. So His disciples came and urged Him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.”

24Ezɨ Iesus kamaghɨn me ikaragha ghaze, “God Israelian akurvaghasavɨra na amada. Me sipsipba gumazir dar ganamiba puvatɨzɨ moghɨn iti.”He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”

25Ezɨ amizir kam Iesusɨn boroghɨra iza, tevimning apɨrigha aviragha uan guam nguazim gatɨgha a mɨgɨa ghaze, “Ekiam, nɨ nan akuragh.”The woman came and knelt before Him. “Lord, help me!” she said.

26Ezɨ Iesus a ikaragha ghaze, “Kar arazir kuram, gumazimɨn boribar dagheba inigh afiabav kɨnam.”But Jesus replied, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”

27Ezɨ amizim ghaze, “Ekiam, nɨ guizbangɨra mɨgei. Ezɨ afiar doziba uaghan uan ghuavimɨn dakozimɨn apengan irezir dagher muzemziariba api.”“Yes, Lord,” she said, “even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.”

28Ezɨ Iesus akar kam baregha kamagh amizim mɨgei, “Amizim, nɨn nɨghnɨzir gavgavim bar ekefe. Bizir nɨ bativasa nɨ ifongezim, a mar nɨ batif.” Ezɨ dughiar kamra an guivim ua dera.“O woman,” Jesus answered, “your faith is great! Let it be done for you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that very hour.

29Ezɨ Iesus nguibar kam ategha Galilin Dɨpar Akaremɨn dadarimɨn zui. Egha ghua mɨghsɨar mamɨn anabogha apera. Ezɨ avɨrir ekiam a bagha izi.Moving on from there, Jesus went along the Sea of Galilee. Then He went up on a mountain and sat down.

30Egha suer kuraba ko, damazir okavɨrɨziba ko, soroghafarir ikɨzɨrɨziba ko, mɨgeir puvatɨziba ko, arɨmariar igharaziba uaghan, me da inigha iza Iesusɨn dagarimningɨn boroghɨn me arɨki. Ezɨ a bar men arɨmariaba batozima, me ua dera.Large crowds came to Him, bringing the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute, and many others, and laid them at His feet, and He healed them.

31Ezɨ gumazamiziba garima, mɨgeir puvatɨziba mɨgei, soroghafarir ikɨzɨrɨziba ua dera, suer kuraba uam arui, damazir okavɨrɨziba ua gari, ezɨ me nɨghnɨzir avɨribagh ami. Egha me Israelɨn Godɨn ziam fe.The crowd was amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled restored, the lame walking, and the blind seeing. And they glorified the God of Israel.

32Ezɨ Iesus uan suren gumazibar diazɨ, me izima a kamaghɨn me mɨgei, “Gumazamizir kaba, me na ko aruer pumuning ko mɨkezimɨn ikia, egha dagheba puvatɨgha mɨtiriam men azi, kamaghɨn kɨ men apangkufi. Mɨtiriam men aghɨtɨ, kɨ me amangan aghua. Me mangɨ damaziba men isirtɨ, me tuavimɨn dagh iram.”Then Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, “I have compassion for this crowd, because they have already been with Me three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may faint along the way.”

33Ezɨ an suren gumaziba a mɨgei, “Kar gumazamiziba puvatɨzir danganim. E managh bretɨn avɨriba inigh avɨrir ekiar kam danɨngam?”The disciples replied, “Where in this desolate place could we find enough bread to feed such a large crowd?”

34Ezɨ Iesus men azai, “Ia manmagh bretba iti?” Ezɨ me ghaze, “E 7plan bretɨn rubuziba ko osirir dozir vaghvaziba iti.”“How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked. “Seven,” they replied, “and a few small fish.”

35Ezɨ Iesus gumazamizibav geima, me nguazim gapia.And He instructed the crowd to sit down on the ground.

36Ezɨ a 7plan bretɨn rubuziba ko osiriba inigha God mɨnabagha da bɨaghsuegha da tuiragha uan suren gumazibagh anɨngi. Ezɨ suren gumaziba da isava gumazamizibagh anɨdi.Taking the seven loaves and the fish, He gave thanks and broke them. Then He gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.

37Ezɨ me bar apa izɨfa. Ezɨ dagher naba itima, me da isa 7plan akɨrabagh aghui.They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.

38Gumazir ameziba, men dɨbobonim 4,000ɨn tu. Me amiziba ko boriba dɨponezir puvatɨ.A total of four thousand men were fed, besides women and children.

39Ezɨ Iesus me amadazɨ, me zuima a bot inigha Magadan nguazimɨn ghu.After Jesus had dismissed the crowds, He got into the boat and went to the region of Magadan.
