Mark 4 (SAV) · Opened

1Wa raakissa mbeh, Yeesu nikka ŋ sereendaŋ cookma, a jangɗoheeɗa. Mboolnda wilee ɗe laayya lool, po a mirndohha rap ŋ gaal, a ɓooffa nga ; a nikka ŋ masma, mboolnda nikka ŋ sereenda.Once again Jesus began to teach beside the sea, and such a large crowd gathered around Him that He got into a boat and sat in it, while all the people crowded along the shore.

2A jangɗeeɗa ɓa ŋ andiin inaa laayiɗ, a woosa ɓa ŋ ɗooƴ jangɗoha ne :And He taught them many things in parables, and in His teaching He said,

3« Sikɗukaat ! A nikee guuroh, a kaɗta soka.“Listen! A farmer went out to sow his seed.

4Wi a soke, a saaweeɗa tisohi, in nga hennda ŋ waasi ŋ ɗooƴ yohni, sel ci hayya ñammbaa.And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.

5Raakka ci keen ŋ ɗisik laayaaɗi merhey, raakiɗ atoh, tahha po ca arra paar,Some fell on rocky ground, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly because the soil was shallow.

6waaye wi nohi dam, in ca paaree leeɓpa po ca onnja sagu ini ca raakeeɗi niir nooɗiɗ.But when the sun rose, the seedlings were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.

7In ŋ tisohi nammba keen ŋ ɗisik raakiɗ ñaaɓaaɓ ; ca paarandoosa na ñaaɓaaɓ ca, ceem ndooƴca ca po ca raakɗi ali rim.Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the seedlings, and they yielded no crop.

8Waaye raakka ci keen ŋ keheƴ baahiɗ, ca paarra, ca yakka, ca rimmba, cum eɗohha rim ndaŋkiyaah-kaahay (30), cum ndaŋkiyaah-yasna-yino (60), cum teemet (100). »Still other seed fell on good soil, where it sprouted, grew up, and produced a crop—one bearing thirtyfold, another sixtyfold, and another a hundredfold.”

9Ƴutta, Yeesu woosa ɓa ne : « Ɓo' nu raak nof kerhoha ɗah, a kerhaat. »Then Jesus said, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”

10Wa a saɓsukoh na mboolnda po a nikka na taalubeeci ndaŋkiyaah na kanak ci (12) na ɓooɓa meeɗ nik na ɗe, ɓa meekissa ɗe ini kaɗ ŋ andiin ceem.As soon as Jesus was alone with the Twelve and those around Him, they asked Him about the parable.

11A loffa ɓa ne : « Ɗu onuuɗ ne ɗu inah ini ɗasɗukiɗiŋ Nguuriŋ-Kooh. Waaye ɓaahaaɗiici na rahse in ci jen ngaŋ andiinHe replied, “The mystery of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to those on the outside everything is expressed in parables,

12ne “ ɓa markee baahiɗ, ɓa minuu hot ; ɓa sikɗukee baahiɗ, ɓa minuu inah. Ŋ ineem, ɓa ɓoƴsohuu kipes po Kooh kee ɓa ɗaasa bakaaɗ ciŋ ɓa. ” »so that, ‘they may be ever seeing but never perceiving, and ever hearing but never understanding; otherwise they might turn and be forgiven.’”

13Yeesu woyissa ɓa ne : « Ɗu inahɗi ini andiinii tokis e ? Kon, ne ɗu inah ci tas jen wa hey miske nga ɗu !Then Jesus said to them, “Do you not understand this parable? Then how will you understand any of the parables?

14Sokohi na soke woo kiŋ Kooh.The farmer sows the word.

15Ɓum ɓeɗ ŋ sero waasi, ɗiski Woo ki saawu ; ɓeɗ ɓooɓi na kerhe woo kiŋ Kooh, Seytaani jaar hay, nihisa nga ɓa.Some are like the seeds along the path, where the word is sown. As soon as they hear it, Satan comes and takes away the word that was sown in them.

16Ɓum ɓeɗ paaroh ŋ ini saawu ŋ kehƴi raak atoh ci ; ɓeɗ ɓooɓi na kerhe Woo ki, ɓa jaara teyɗuk na keeñ soosiɗ,Some are like the seeds sown on rocky ground. They hear the word and at once receive it with joy.

17waaye ɓa na raakeeɗi niir ŋ haf ɓa, ɓa na maañeeɗi nga. Ɓa raak miskiɗ wala ɓa tolfiɗassee sagu Woo ki ɗah, ɓa ar faɗ.But they themselves have no root, and they remain for only a season. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, they quickly fall away.

18Ɓum ɓeɗ paaroh ŋ ini saawu ŋ ñaaɓaaɓ ci ; ɓeɗ ɓooɓi na kerhe Woo ki, ɓa teyɗuka,Others are like the seeds sown among the thorns. They hear the word,

19waaye liiɓsiɗoh ci, na raak-raak ci na njuyohe, na waaɗ neɓiɗ ciŋ Adina, amb ɓa po Woo ki minuu rim ali in.but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth, and the desire for other things come in and choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

20Ɓinooɓi ɓeɗ paaroh ŋ ini saawu ŋ kehƴi baahiɗi ; ɓeɗ ɓi na kerhe Woo ki, ɓa teyɗuka. Ɓa raak rim, ɓum ndaŋkiyaah-kaahay (30), ɓum ndaŋkiyaah-yasna-yino (60), ɓinooɓi teemet (100). »Still others are like the seeds sown on good soil. They hear the word, receive it, and produce a crop—thirtyfold, sixtyfold, or a hundredfold.”

21Yeesu woyissa ɓa ne : « Laampa na ɓayse ne wa kunu na kanoh wala wa ɗaaku ŋ ooɓ fiƴaangi e ? Wa na degse ŋ degohaaniŋ wa kay !Jesus also said to them, “Does anyone bring in a lamp to put it under a basket or under a bed? Doesn’t he set it on a stand?

22In nu ɗembɗu ɗah, wa ɗembɗu ne mbeh hey haye, wa teeɓohu. In nu ɗasɗu ɗah, wa ɗasɗu ne mbeh hey haye, wa teeɓohu noh cong.For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be brought to light.

23Ɓo' nu raak nof kerhoha ɗah, a kerhaat. »If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.”

24A woyissa ɓa ne : « Markissaat baahiɗ ini ɗu na kerhe ! Inhaat ne, ɓeesohaani ɗu na ɓeesɗohohe, weɗ ɗu ɓeesɗohsan, ƴut ɗah, ɗu ɓaatu.He went on to say, “Pay attention to what you hear. With the measure you use, it will be measured to you, and even more will be added to you.

25Laam ɓoyi raak hey ɓaatse, waaye ɓoyi raakɗi, ini ƴissuuti a amb sah hey naafse nga ɗe. »For whoever has will be given more. But whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.”

26Yeesu woyissa ɓa ne : « Nguuriŋ-Kooh mand na inii : A nikee ɓo', a sokka tisoh ŋ yohon.Jesus also said, “The kingdom of God is like a man who scatters seed on the ground.

27Ƴutta, a taalndiɗta, wek reesa ɗah a neehe, noh ɗah a kuruk. Tisoha paarra po wa yakka te a inahɗi findi wa kaɗoh po wa hennda ɗaa.Night and day he sleeps and wakes, and the seed sprouts and grows, though he knows not how.

28A merhey mi ŋ haf wa paariɗa, wa raakka pok, wa ɓiɗissa, wa marakka ;All by itself the earth produces a crop—first the stalk, then the head, then grain that ripens within.

29wa ruunnda rek, a inahha ne nguɗ reyiɗ, a ɓayya japil, a nguɗtaa. »And as soon as the grain is ripe, he swings the sickle, because the harvest has come.”

30Yeesu woyissa ne : « Ɓoo min mandtiɗkoh Nguuriŋ-Kooh na ye ? Ɓoo mina teeɓoh na winde andiin ?Then He asked, “To what can we compare the kingdom of God? With what parable shall we present it?

31Wa mand na kuɓu mutarda, wa sokuusa ɗah, weɗ na uupe ƴissuut ŋ tisoh ciŋ kidig ci ƴin ci na sokse ŋ nguuk jen,It is like a mustard seed, which is the smallest of all seeds sown upon the earth.

32waaye wa sokuusa po wa paarra ɗah, wa yak po wa uup ca, wa raak naak yakak po sel ci min taar ŋ saangniŋ wa. »But after it is planted, it grows to be the largest of all garden plants and puts forth great branches, so that the birds of the air nest in its shade.”

33Yeesu jangɗohohee ɓa ɗaa, ŋ andiin laayiɗ findi andiin cii, a jangɗeeɗa ɓa in hend na ini haf ciŋ ɓa min amb.With many such parables Jesus spoke the word to them, to the extent that they could understand.

34A woyeeɗi na ɓa ŋ ini nikɗi andiin, waaye a ɗaayya na taalubeeciŋ ɗe ɗah, a toksiɗ ɓa ca jen.He did not tell them anything without using a parable. But privately He explained everything to His own disciples.

35Mbaɗi, wa noha muy, Yeesu woosa taalubeeciŋ ɗe ne : « Ɓoo kaɗaat ŋ ɓaka faahaŋ cookma. »When that evening came, He said to His disciples, “Let us cross to the other side.”

36Ɓa faɗta mboolnda ndaam, taalubeeciŋ ɗe ɓayya ɗe na gaala a nikohe, ɓi gaal wiiriis hunnda na ɓa.After they had dismissed the crowd, they took Jesus with them, since He was already in the boat. And there were other boats with Him.

37Ɗekka po pahul yakak kurukka, ginaah ca laɓkeeɗa ŋ gaala po wa riifiɗta na masuɓ.Soon a violent windstorm came up, and the waves were breaking over the boat, so that it was being swamped.

38Raak Yeesu neeheeɗa ŋ lecmaŋ gaala, a ooɓpa tiknukoha ŋ hafiŋ ɗe ; taalubeeciŋ ɗe yunnda ɗe, woosa ɗe ne : « Jangɗohohi, sooƴi ɓoo na sooƴe wii, tumɗi ɗa in e ? »But Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on the cushion. So they woke Him and said, “Teacher, don’t You care that we are perishing?”

39Wa a yunu, a ngassa puuɗsa, a woosa cookma ne : « Yeeɓka ! Seema ! » Puuɗsa seemmba, ɗiska eennda teɗ.Then Jesus got up and rebuked the wind and the sea. “Silence!” He commanded. “Be still!” And the wind died down, and it was perfectly calm.

40Ƴutta a woosa taalubeeciŋ ɗe ne : « Wa ye tah ɗu neek ? Ɗu ris kosɗi poyi e ? »“Why are you so afraid?” He asked. “Do you still have no faith?”

41Ɓa feyuusa lool, ɓa woyeeɗa ŋ harmban ɓa ne : « Ƴaarii joy nik ɓa po puuɗsi na cookmi sah kerhiɗee ɗe ? »Overwhelmed with fear, they asked one another, “Who is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?”
