Matthew 14 (RHGC)

1Hé októt Galil elakar hókumot-goróya Hérude Isár baabute hóbor fúinne,At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the reports about Jesus

2tói yóggwa ye nizor uzir-nazir ókkol ore hoór de, “Íba óilde bápṭismadoya Yaháya, íba mora ttu zinda óiye deh; hétolla toh íba ye keramoti ham híin gorí farer.”and said to his servants, “This is John the Baptist; he has risen from the dead! That is why miraculous powers are at work in him.”

3Kiyólla-hoilé Hérude nizor bái Filíp or bou Hérudias or wasté hé Yaháya re gereftar gorí bañdífelai ziyól ot díyl.Now Herod had arrested John and bound him and put him in prison on account of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife,

4Yaháya ye yóggwa re endilla hoitó de hétolla, “Tuáñr ttu híba re biyá goríbar zayes nái.”because John had been telling him, “It is not lawful for you to have her.”

5Yóggwa ttu íba re marifélaito monehoitó, montor awam ókkol ore ḍooraitó, kiyólla-hoilé ítara Yaháya re nobi manitó.Although Herod wanted to kill John, he was afraid of the people, because they regarded John as a prophet.

6Lekin zeñtté Hérud or zormo-din aiccé, Hérudias or zíi ye maáfil ot nasi Hérud ore kúci goijjé.On Herod’s birthday, however, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod

7Hétolla yóggwa ye hosóm hái waada goijjé de, híba ye ziín mage híin diibo hoói.so much that he promised with an oath to give to her whatever she asked.

8Nizor maa ye cíkaidiye de héndilla híba ye hoór de, “Bápṭismadoya Yaháyar holla wa re ekkán tálit góri eṛé añré doo.”Prompted by her mother, she said, “Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist.”

9Híyan fúni baáñcca ttu bicí afsús laiggé, montor toóu nizor hosóm edde meéman ókkol or zoriya yóggwa ye hókum díye de, híbar aros sán fura gorá záy bolla.The king was grieved, but because of his oaths and his guests, he ordered that her wish be granted

10Tarfore yóggwa ye manúc difeṛái, ziyól ot Yaháyar holla haṛiféla baye.and sent to have John beheaded in the prison.

11Baade íbar holla wa ekkán tálit góri aní zérfua wa re diiya giyéh, aar zérfua wa ye nizor maar hañse ainné.John’s head was brought in on a platter and presented to the girl, who carried it to her mother.

12Yárbaade Yaháyar ummot ókkole aái yore íbar lac cwa loizai dohón gorífelaiye; baade zai Isá re híyan zanaiyé.Then John’s disciples came and took his body and buried it. And they went and informed Jesus.

13Isá ye Yaháyar baabute fúinne rár, héntu síra ói noow ot gori ekkán bocóti-sára zagat giiyói. Aar manúc ókkole híyan fúni, cóor ókkol ottu neeli áñṛi-áñṛi Íbar fisá doijje.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.

14Zeñtté Isá noow ttu laimmé, Íba ye ḍoóñr ek dol manúc deikké; aar ítara lla feṭfuri ítarar biyaram ókkol gom goijjé.When He stepped ashore and saw a large crowd, He had compassion on them and healed their sick.

15Zeñtté háñz óiye, Íbar cárit tune Íbar hañse aái hoór de, “Yián toh ekkán bocóti-sára zaga, aar beil óu giyói. Hétolla manúc cún ore duñraido, zeéne tará fara ókkol ot zai nizor lla hána kinigói fare.”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.”

16Montor Isá ye ítara re hoór de, “Tará ttu zaagói no foribó; hái bolla kessú tará re tuáñra doo.”“They do not need to go away,” Jesus replied. “You give them something to eat.”

17Ítara Íba re hoór de, “Añára ttu eṛé fañs swá ruṭi edde duwá mas bade ar kessú nái.”“We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered.

18Íba ye hoór de, “Híin eṛé Añr hañse anógoi.”“Bring them here to Me,” Jesus said.

19Baade Íba ye manúc cún ore kér or uore boitó hókum díye, aar hé fañs swá ruṭi edde duwá mas sún looi asman or uzu saái cúkuriya goijjé. Tarfore ruṭi gún báñgi-báñgi cárit tun ore diiyé, aar cárit tune manúc cún ore baṛidiyé.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.

20Tará beggúne feṭ bóri háiye. Baade ze tukuṛa ókkol basigiyói, cárit tune híin feñṛai looi fura baró báñir bóijje.They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.

21Háiye de ítara beṛiyáin edde fuain bad di tokoriban fañs ázar beṛaáin.About five thousand men were fed, besides women and children.

22Baade éhon or bútore Isá ye Nizor cárit tun ore mojbur goijjé de, Íba ye manúc cún ore bidai gorí dite-dite ítara zeéne noow ot uṛí Íbar age ḍiír okule zaagói.Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to the other side, while He dismissed the crowds.

23Manúc cún ore bidai gorídi baade, Íba ekéla faár or uore dua goittó uiṭṭói. Aar háñz óiye de héñtte, Íba héṛe háliga,After He had dismissed them, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. When evening came, He was there alone,

24montor noow gán kul ottu boóut duré, aar boiyar uzan baát accíl ísafe híyan léinge éñskar.but the boat was already far from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it.

25Fuáñitta, Isá fanír uottú áñṛi-áñṛi ítarar héṛe aiccé.During the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went out to them, walking on the sea.

26Íba fanír uottú áñṛer de híyan cárit tune dekí bicí ḍooraigiyói, aar hoór de, “Ibá bút!” Héndilla hoói, ítara ḍoore guzoran maijjíl.When the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost!” they said, and cried out in fear.

27Montor Isá ye éhon-éhon ítara re hoór de, “Hímmot goró! Ibá Añí; no ḍooraiyó.”But Jesus spoke up at once: “Take courage! It is I. Do not be afraid.”

28Zuwabe Fitore Íba re hoór de, “Malik, zodi Tuñí de óile, añré fanír uottú Tuáñr héṛe aitó hókum dóh.”“Lord, if it is You,” Peter replied, “command me to come to You on the water.”

29Íba ye hoór de, “Ai.” Hétunot Fitor noow ttu lami, fanír uottú áñṛi-áñṛi Isár híkka zaat doijje.“Come,” said Jesus. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water, and came toward Jesus.

30Montor zeñtté tez boiyar deikké íba ḍooraigiyói, aar ḍufízargoi rár guzori hoór de, “Malik, añré baso!”But when he saw the strength of the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!”

31Isá ye toratori Nizor át barái íba re dórifelai hoór de, “Ó hom biccác ola, cóok kiyá goijjós?”Immediately Jesus reached out His hand and took hold of Peter. “You of little faith,” He said, “why did you doubt?”

32Baade zeñtté ítara noow ot uiṭṭégai, boiyar támaigiyoi.And when they had climbed back into the boat, the wind died down.

33Aar zetará noowr uore accíl ítara Íba re eén hoói sóida goijjé, “Becók, Tuñí óilade Allar Fua.”Then those who were in the boat worshiped Him, saying, “Truly You are the Son of God!”

34Ítara ḍií farái, Genesáret elakat foóñicce.When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret.

35Aar hé zagar maincé Isá re sinné rár, ítara sairó ḍak or elakar agagurat hóbor foóñsai, biyaraimma ókkol beggún ore Íbar hañse ainné;And when the men of that place recognized Jesus, they sent word to all the surrounding region. People brought all the sick to Him

36baade ítara Íba re fóriyat gorát doijje de, biyaraimma gún ore siríf Íbar fucák or hañra óile súito dí bolla; aar zetó zone súiye ítara beggún gom óigiyoi.and begged Him just to let them touch the fringe of His cloak. And all who touched Him were healed.
