Mark 6 (NKN) · Opened

1Kaha Yesu uahumine kuje na kuya ku lifuti liendi, na vandongisi vendi vamukavele.Jesus went on from there and came to His hometown, accompanied by His disciples.

2Kaha ha litangua lia sapalalo uaputukile kulongesa mu njivo ya malombelo, kaha vavengi vamuivuile valikomokelele, nakuhandeka nguavo, “Ou yala kulihoni kuanauana evi vioshe? Mana muka vamuhanene ikeye? Vikomouesa muka viali nakupanga na mavoko endi!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?

3Nkuma ou keti ikeye muka kushonga, muna Maliya na muanaye Tiango na Yosefa na Yundasa na Simoni ndi? Kaha vandumbueni kutuesi navo hano ndi?” Kaha vakevo vamuvianene.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.

4Kaha Yesu uahandekele kuli vakevo nguendi, “Kananguizi kuvamusingimika mu cifuti cendi, naku vantu vendi na mu njivo yendi vavenia.”Then Jesus said to them, “Only in his hometown, among his relatives, and in his own household is a prophet without honor.”

5Kaha kalingile vikomoueso viakama kuje, kuvanga lika kusaleka mavoko endi ku vantu vavandende vaka kuvavala na kuvakanguisa.So He could not perform any miracles there, except to lay His hands on a few of the sick and heal them.

6Kaha ualikomokelele omuo hakuhona lutsiluelo luavo. Kaha uendanganene mu membo na kulongesa.And He was amazed at their unbelief. And He went around from village to village, teaching the people.

7Kaha uasanene vaje likumi na vavali uaputukile nakuvatuma vaye vali na vavali, nakuvahana nzili yakama ha vimbembesi viavipi.Then Jesus called the Twelve to Him and began to send them out two by two, giving them authority over unclean spirits.

8Uavashikile nguendi “Keti vambate cimo mu vungenzi vuavo kuvanga lika mbueti, kuakuhona mbolo, cipue njeke, cipue vimbongo mu miva yavo,He instructed them to take nothing but a staff for the journey—no bread, no bag, no money in their belts—

9vuno honi muzale vinkaku keti kuzala vikovelo vivali.”and to wear sandals, but not a second tunic.

10kaha mu njivo yoshe mukovela, “tumamenimo kutuala noho mukahuma mu cihela cije.And He told them, “When you enter a house, stay there until you leave that area.

11Kaha nga cihela coshe cije kuvamitambula na kuviana kumivuilila, omo mukahumamo, litotomoneni likungu lili kuviliato vieni linga vupue vukaleho vueni hali vakevo!”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.”

12Kaha vaile nakuambulula nguavo vantu vapande kutenguluka.So they set out and preached that the people should repent.

13Kaha vahumisile mahamba vavengi, nakuvuavesa vantu vavengi vaka kuvavala na mazi nakuvakanguisa.They also drove out many demons and healed many of the sick, anointing them with oil.

14Omo muene Helonde uevuile nguendi lizina lia Yesu liatsimanene cikuma. Kaha vamo vahandekele nguavo, “Iuano mukakumbuitika na sanguka kuvatsi, mukemo eyi nzili ili nakupanga muli ikeye.”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.”

15Vuno honi vamo vahandekele nguavo, “Ikeye Eliya.” Veka naua nguavo, “Ikeye kananguizi, ngue ua vamo va vaje tunanguizi va Njambi va laja.”Others were saying, “He is Elijah,” and still others, “He is a prophet, like one of the prophets of old.”

16Vuno honi omo Helonde vovuile eci uahandekele nguendi, “Iuano uje njavatuile mutue nasanguka.”But when Herod heard this, he said, “John, whom I beheaded, has risen from the dead!”

17Omuo Helonde uatumine linga vakuate Iuano, na kumukuta na kumutuala mu kamenga, ualingile eci omuo ya Helondiya, mpuevo ya muanaye Filipu omuo uamuambatele.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.

18Omuo Iuano uahandekele kuli Helonde nguendi, “Keti lishiko kuambata mpuevo ya muanove.”For John had been telling Herod, “It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife!”

19Kaha Helondiya uakele na citela nendi, kaha uatondele kumutsiha vuno honi uahonouele,So Herodias held a grudge against John and wanted to kill him. But she had been unable,

20omuo Helonde uateuele Iuano, omuo uatatentekeyele nguendi uapua ua vusunga na uakulela, kaha ua muniungile muacili. Omo vamuivuile, ualikomokelele mu mutima uendi, vuno honi cipue ngoco uamutolililile.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.

21Halitangua lije liasemukile Helonde ua uavuahesele viakulia vakakuyula na vakakushika vaje vahumine ku Ngalileya.On Herod’s birthday, her opportunity arose. Herod held a banquet for his nobles and military commanders and the leading men of Galilee.

22Kaha kuezile muna Helondiya ua mpuevo na kukina, uavuahelesele Helonde na vangezi vendi, kaha muene uahandekele kuli uje mumbanda nguendi. “Njilombe coshe cije utonda, kaha njikakuhanaco.”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.”

23Kaha ua lisingile kuli ikeye nguendi, “Coshe ulomba kuli yange njikakuhana, cipue mbazuvuila ya vumuene vuange.”And he swore to her, “Whatever you ask of me, I will give you, up to half my kingdom!”

24Kaha uaile hambanza, nakuihula vaina nguendi, “Vika njikalomba?” Kaha vaina vamukumbuilile nguavo, “Lomba mutue ua Iuano mu kakumbuitika.”Then she went out and asked her mother, “What should I request?” And her mother answered, “The head of John the Baptist.”

25Hajevene uezile kuli muene nakulomba nguendi, “Njitonda linga unjihane mutue ua Iuano mukakumbuitika ha lilonga hano vene.”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.”

26Kaha muene uakele na vusiua vuakama, vuno honi omuo ha kulisinga nguendi na hali vangenzi vendi, katondele kupokola mezi endi aje ahandekele kuli ikeye.The king was consumed with sorrow, but because of his oaths and his guests, he did not want to refuse her.

27Kaha hajevene muene uatumine lisualale uje mu ka kuniunga kaha ua mushikile linga anehe mutue ua Iuano. Kaha uaile nakumuteta mutue mukamenga,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.

28kaha vanehele mutue mulilonga, nakuhana uje mutue mumbanda, kaha uje mumbanda uauhanene vaina.The man brought John’s head on a platter and presented it to the girl, who gave it to her mother.

29Omo vandongisi vendi vacuvuile, vezile nakumbata muvila uendi, nakuutsinda mucihilo.When John’s disciples heard about this, they came and took his body and placed it in a tomb.

30Tunganda vahilukile kuli Yesu, na kumulekesa vioshe vivalingile nevi valongesele.Meanwhile, the apostles gathered around Jesus and brought Him news of all they had done and taught.

31Kaha uahandekele kuli vakevo nguendi, “Tuyeni ku cihela calikalietu, tukahuimeko cindende.” Omuo vavengi vakele na kuija nakuya, kaha kuvauanene cipue ntsimbu ya kulia.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.

32Kaha vakovelele mu vuato nakuya ku cihela cakulishueka kua likaliavo.So they went away in a boat by themselves to a solitary place.

33Nkuma vavengi vavamuene oku valinakuya, kaha naua vavatantekeyele, kaha vashatukilile kuli ikeye kuhuma ku vinganda vioshe, kaha uavauanene kulutue luendi.But many people saw them leaving and recognized them. They ran together on foot from all the towns and arrived before them.

34Kaha omo muaile ha ntunda uamuene civunga cakama, kaha uavoviulile ngozi, muomu vapuile ngue vampanga vakuhona kaniungi, kaha naua uaputukile kuvalongesa viuma viavingi.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.

35Omo kuapuile cinguezi, vandongisi vendi vezile kuli ikeye nakuhandeka nguavo, “Cino cinapu cihela ca kulishueka naua kuatoko,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.

36valeke vaye na kuzenguluka mu cifuti na mu membo vazenguluke linga vakalilandele viakulia vakevo vavenia.”Dismiss the crowd so they can go to the surrounding countryside and villages and buy themselves something to eat.”

37Vuno honi uavakumbuilile nguendi, “Vahaneni viakulia valie.” Kaha vahandekele kuli ikeye nguavo, “Tuye nakulanda vimbolo mu vimbongo viakupua vihita vivali ndinali, kaha tuvahane valie?”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?”

38Kaha uahandekele kuli vakevo nguendi, “Muli na vimbolo vingahi? Yeni mukamone.” Kaha omo vaile nakumona, vahandekele nguavo, “Kuli vimbolo vitanu, na vantsi vavali.”“Go and see how many loaves you have,” He told them. And after checking, they said, “Five—and two fish.”

39Kaha ua vashikile nguendi, vatumame hamavu ha vishoni muvivunga.Then Jesus directed them to have the people sit in groups on the green grass.

40Kaha vatumamene hamavu muvivunga, muvihita na mumakumi atanu.So they sat down in groups of hundreds and fifties.

41Kaha Yesu uambatele vimbolo vitanu na vantsi vavali kaha uatalele kuilu, na kuvivezikisa, kaha uapazuile vije vimbolo, kaha uahanene vandongisi vendi linga vahane vantu, kaha uavapangelele vaje vatsi vavali voshe.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.

42Kaha voshe valile nakukuta.They all ate and were satisfied,

43Vandongisi va Yesu vakunguilile vimbazuvuila via vimbolo na vatsi vije viasaleleho via kupua mitonga likumi na ivali.and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces of bread and fish.

44Kaha vantu vaje valile vimbolo vapuile vamala makulukazi atanu.And there were five thousand men who had eaten the loaves.

45Hajevene Yesu ualekele vandongisi vendi linga vakovele mu vuato vaye kulutue luendi kusinia ya Mbetesainda, te ikeye acili na kushandola civunga.Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to Bethsaida, while He dismissed the crowd.

46Kaha omo uavasezele, uaile ku munkinda nakulombela.After bidding them farewell, He went up on the mountain to pray.

47Kaha omo kuapuile cinguezi, vuato vuakele hhakati ka cisali kaha uakele likaliendi ha ntunda.When evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and Jesus was alone on land.

48Kaha uamuene vandongisi vendi vali mu vukalu vua mpunzi yakele na kuvaluisa. Kaha omo ntsimbu kanda kuce, uezile kuli vakevo, oku hali nakuenda ha mema. Te hali na kuvatuvakana,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,

49vuno honi omo vamumuene hali na kuenda ha cisali vasinganiekele nguavo ndumba ya muntu, kaha vatambekele cikuma,but when they saw Him walking on the sea, they cried out, thinking He was a ghost—

50Nankuma omo vamumuene, kaha vovuile liova cikuma. Vuno honi hajevene uahandekele kuli vakevo nguendi, “Kuateni mitima, yange, keti muteue.”for they all saw Him and were terrified. But Jesus spoke up at once: “Take courage! It is I. Do not be afraid.”

51Kaha uakovelele mu vuato navo kaha na mpunzi ya holokele. Kaha valikomokelele cikuma,Then He climbed into the boat with them, and the wind died down. And the disciples were utterly astounded,

52omuo ku vovuisile via vije vimbolo, omuo vakolesele mitima yavo.for they had not understood about the loaves, but their hearts had been hardened.

53Kaha omo vajavukile, vahetele ku Ngenesaleta, kaha vakutile vuato ku cikuma.When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret and moored the boat.

54Kaha omo vahumine mu vuato, hajevene vantu vamutantekeyele Yesu,As soon as they got out of the boat, the people recognized Jesus

55kaha vashatukilile mu vihela vioshe kaha vaputukile kuneha vakakuvavala ha manala avo nakuvatuala kuli kuoshe kuva muivuililile.and ran through that whole region, carrying the sick on mats to wherever they heard He was.

56Kaha kuoshe kuje kuaile, ku membo, na muvinganda cipue mu mafuti, vakosesele vakakuvavala ha manala avo kuje ku mihela yakulandesela, vamulambelelele linga vaje vakakuvavala vamukuate kumukundilo ua kazaku kendi, kaha voshe vaje vakuateleko vakangukile.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.
