Mark 6 (SBY) · Opened

1Yesu walafumako ne kushika mu cibela ca ku comwabo, neco beshikwiya bakendi balamukonka.Jesus went on from there and came to His hometown, accompanied by His disciples.

2Mpobwalashika busuba bwa sabata, nendi walatatika kwiyisha mung'anda yakupaililamo, nomba bantu bangi balamunyumfwa, balakankamana ne kwambeti, “Inga bintu ibi walabicana kupeyo muntuyu? Nipacebo cini mano alicisa alapewa ku muntuyu? Kwambeti bintu bya ngofu shilicisa nendi abinsenga?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?

3Sena nte shikupala mapulanga uyu, mwanendi Maliya, mukwabo Yakobo ne Yose ne Yuda ne Shimoni? Kayi ne bakwabo batukashi ntetuli nabo pano?” Neco balamusula.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.

4Nomba Yesu walapitilisha kubambileti, “Mushishimi nkatute kupewa bulemu kucomwabo nambi ne banse bendi nambi ne bamung'anda mucomwabo. Nsombi kumbi.”Then Jesus said to them, “Only in his hometown, among his relatives, and in his own household is a prophet without honor.”

5Neco calamwemba kwinsako bintu byeshikukankaminisha, nsombi walabika makasa pa balwashi bang'ana ne kubasengula.So He could not perform any miracles there, except to lay His hands on a few of the sick and heal them.

6Cakubinga, walakankamana pakubula lushomo kwabo. Neco walendana muminshi yapepi kushingulukamo kaya kwiyisha.And He was amazed at their unbelief. And He went around from village to village, teaching the people.

7Yesu walakuwa likumi ne babili ne kubatuma babili babili, ne kubapa ngofu shakupulisha mishimu yaipa.Then Jesus called the Twelve to Him and began to send them out two by two, giving them authority over unclean spirits.

8Nomba walabakonkomesheti, “Kamutamanta kantu kalikonse pabulwendo, nsombi nkoli yonka. Kamutamanta shinkwa, nambi mukopa wapabulwendo, nambi mali mubikwama byenu.He instructed them to take nothing but a staff for the journey—no bread, no bag, no money in their belts—

9Ee, mufwale nkwabilo, kamutapamankanya minjila ibili.”and to wear sandals, but not a second tunic.

10Kayi walabambileti, “Bamutambula mung'anda iliyonse, ikalani mung'andomo mpaka cindi cakufumamo.And He told them, “When you enter a house, stay there until you leave that area.

11Kulikonse nkobalabulu kumutambula, nambi kumunyumfwila, pakufumako mupampamune lusuko lwa ku myendo kwenu kwambeti lube cishibisho cakubacenjesha.”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.”

12Neco balanyamuka kuya kukambauka kwambeti bantu bashiye bwipishi bwabo.So they set out and preached that the people should repent.

13Neco balapulisha mishimu yaipa ingi, ne kunanika mafuta balwashi bangi ne kubasengula.They also drove out many demons and healed many of the sick, anointing them with oil.

14Lino ibi byalanyumfwika ku Mwami Helode pakwinga lina lya Yesu lyanyumfwika paliponse, neco bantu balikwambeti, “Yohane Mubatishi lapundushiwa kubafu, ecebo cakendi lenshinga bishikukankaminisha bilicisa.”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.”

15Nomba nabambi balikwambeti, “Ni Mushinshimi Eliya” Nsombi nabambi balikwambeti, “Ni mushinshimi mbuli ncobalikuba bashinshimi nabambi bakulukulu”Others were saying, “He is Elijah,” and still others, “He is a prophet, like one of the prophets of old.”

16Helode mpwalanyumfwa walambeti, “Cakubinga uyu ni Yohane Mubatishi usa ngondatimbula mutwi elapundushiwa.”But when Herod heard this, he said, “John, whom I beheaded, has risen from the dead!”

17Pakwinga Helodi mwine ewalatuma bantu kuya kumwikata Yohane, kumusunga ne kumubika mujele. Helode walenseco, pakwinga waleba Helodiya mukashi wa Filipo mukwabo.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.

18Calabeco pakwinga Yohane walikumwambila mankanda angi kwambeti, “Catonda kweba mukashi wa mukwenu”For John had been telling Herod, “It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife!”

19Neco Helodiya calamunyona kumoyo, walikalangaula mwa kushinina Yohane, nsombi Helodiya calikumwemba.So Herodias held a grudge against John and wanted to kill him. But she had been unable,

20Helode walikumutina Yohane, pakwinga walikumwinshibeti ni muntu walulama kayi waswepa, neco walikumusunga cena. Nomba mpwalanyumfwa ncalikwamba Yohane walapwilwa mano, Nambi walikuyanda kumunyumfwila mwa kukondwa.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.

21Nomba Helodiya walacaninapo colwe mpobwalashika busuba bwakusekelela kusemwa kwa Helode. Walabambila cakulya camansailo bamanduna bakendi, bashilikali bamakulene, ne batangunishi bayampuwo mu Galileya.On Herod’s birthday, her opportunity arose. Herod held a banquet for his nobles and military commanders and the leading men of Galilee.

22Nomba mwana mutukashi wa Helodiya mpwalengilamo ne kubashanina ca sunsa bukome, walamukondwelesha Helode pamo ne mbwalikulya nabo. Pano Mwami walambila mwana mutukashi eti, “Kosenga ciliconse ncolandanga kuli njame, nindikupe.”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.”

23Ea, walensa kulumbileti, “Cakubinga ciliconse ncowelela kusenga kulinjame nindikupe, nambi cimpansha ca bwami bwakame.”And he swore to her, “Whatever you ask of me, I will give you, up to half my kingdom!”

24Popelapo walapula ne kuya kwambila banyina kwambeti, “Inga ensenge cani?” Banyina balambeti, “Mutwi wa Yohane Mubatishi.”Then she went out and asked her mother, “What should I request?” And her mother answered, “The head of John the Baptist.”

25Pa cindi copeleco mutukashi uyu walengila mwabwangu bwangu ne kuya kwalikuba mwami, nekumusenga, “Ndayandanga mumpe mumbale popele pano mutwi wa Yohane.”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.”

26Popelapo Mwami Herode calamwikala kumoyo, nomba pakuyeya ncalalumbila, kayi nabo mbwalakuwa kumalyalya asa uliya kuyanda kupwaya maswi ngalambila mutukashi usa.The king was consumed with sorrow, but because of his oaths and his guests, he did not want to refuse her.

27Pacindi copeleco mwami walatuma mushilikani ne kumukonkomesheti, alete mutwi wa Yohane. Neye walaya kumutimbula mutwi mu Jele,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.

28ne kuleta mumbale, ne kutwala ku mwana mutukashi usa, neye mutukashi uyo walautwala ku banyina.The man brought John’s head on a platter and presented it to the girl, who gave it to her mother.

29Beshikwiya bakendi Yohane mpobalanyumfwa balesakumanta citumbi ne kuya kubika mu manda.When John’s disciples heard about this, they came and took his body and placed it in a tomb.

30Lino beshikwiya balabwelela kuli Yesu ne kumwambila byonse mbyebalensa ne kwiyisha.Meanwhile, the apostles gathered around Jesus and brought Him news of all they had done and taught.

31Kwalikuba bantu bangi balikwisa ne kuya, cakwinseti Yesu ne beshikwiya bakendi balabula cindi cakupumwina, nambi cakwambeti balye cakulya. Neco,walabambileti, “Katuyani kumusena kwabula bantu twenga tupumwineko.”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.

32Neco balatanta bwato, ne kuya kumusena kwabula bantu.So they went away in a boat by themselves to a solitary place.

33Nomba bantu balababona kabanyamuka, balenshiba nkobalikuya. Neco bantu balasokoloka kufuma muminshi ne kufwamba lubilo kuya kopeloko ne kushika bwangu Yesu ne beshikwiya bakendi kabatana bashika.But many people saw them leaving and recognized them. They ran together on foot from all the towns and arrived before them.

34Lino Yesu mpwalaseluka mu bwato, walabona likoto linene lyabantu, neco walabanyumfwila luse, pakwinga balikubeti mbelele shabula mwembeshi. Walatatika kubeyisha bintu bingi.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.

35Lino mpokwalatatika kushipuluka, beshikwiya bakendi balesa kumwambileti, “Kuno nikucisuwa, kayi naco cindi cilapu.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.

36Kamubambilani bantu benga mu minshi ilipepi kwambeti benga balyulile byakulya.”Dismiss the crowd so they can go to the surrounding countryside and villages and buy themselves something to eat.”

37Neye Yesu walabambileti, “Amwe njamweti mubape cakulya.” Palico, balo balambeti, “Sena twenga kuyakula shinkwa wa mali ngelakufola muntu pa myenshi isanu ne itatu ne kutwala kubantu aba kwambeti balye?”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?”

38Nendi Yesu walabepusheti, “Inga mukuteko shinkwa ungaye? Kamuya mubone!” Mpobalaubona balamwambileti, “Muli shinkwa usanu, kayi ne nswi shibili.”“Go and see how many loaves you have,” He told them. And after checking, they said, “Five—and two fish.”

39Palico, Yesu walambila beshikwiya bakendi kwambeti, bekalike panshi bantu mu makoto-makoto pamila yamwemfu.Then Jesus directed them to have the people sit in groups on the green grass.

40Neco balekala mumakoto milongo mwanda umo, ukute bantu makumi asanu pa mulongo.So they sat down in groups of hundreds and fifties.

41Yesu walamanta shinkwa usanu ne nswi shibili ne kulanga kwilu ne kusenga Lesa, ne kukatika komona shinkwa ne inswi shibili nekupa beshikwiya bakendi, kwambeti nabo bayabile bantu.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.

42Neco bonse balalya ne kwikuta,They all ate and were satisfied,

43Panyuma pakendi beshikwiya basa balayowela byalashalapo bya shinkwa ne nswi, balesusha mitanga likumi ne ibili,and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces of bread and fish.

44Nomba, bonse abo balalya shinkwa uyo balikuba batuloba bali myanda makumi asanu.And there were five thousand men who had eaten the loaves.

45Pacindi copeleco, Yesu walambila beshikwiya bakendi eti batante mu bwato batangune kuya kutala ku Betisaida, nsombi nendi walashalila kacambila bantu kwambeti benga kwabo.Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to Bethsaida, while He dismissed the crowd.

46Mpwalalayana nabo bantu, walaya pa mulundu kuya kupaila.After bidding them farewell, He went up on the mountain to pray.

47Mansailo mpokwalashipuluka, bwato bwali kabucili pakati pa lwenje, kakuli nendi walikuba enka kumutunta.When evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and Jesus was alone on land.

48Nomba Yesu mpwalababona kabakwasula bwato mwakupenga pakwinga balikulwana ne lukupwe lwa ngofu, camuma 3 koloko kumaca walabakonkela, kaya kwenda palwenje, nomba walayanda nsulo kubapitilila.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,

49Nomba beshikwiya mpobalamubona kenda pa lwenje balayeyeti, “Ni cipuku ici nditu!” Neco kwalaba kubilikisha kwabuyowa.but when they saw Him walking on the sea, they cried out, thinking He was a ghost—

50Pakwinga bonse balamubona neco balatina kwine. Nomba pa cindi copeleco, walabambileti, “Yumishani moyo, njame. Kamutatina!”for they all saw Him and were terrified. But Jesus spoke up at once: “Take courage! It is I. Do not be afraid.”

51Popelapo walatanta nabo mubwato ne lukupwe lwalacileka. Neco balakankamana mu myoyo yabo.Then He climbed into the boat with them, and the wind died down. And the disciples were utterly astounded,

52Pakwinga baliya kunyumfwishisha shinkwa usa ne swi, ncalikupandulula, cebo cakwambeti myoyo yabo yalikuba yayuma.for they had not understood about the loaves, but their hearts had been hardened.

53Nomba lino mpobalatampukila kumutunta, balashika mu Genesalete ne kubwimanika bwato capepi.When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret and moored the boat.

54Nomba mpwalaseluka mu bwato bantu balashikila kumwinshiba Yesu.As soon as they got out of the boat, the people recognized Jesus

55Neco bantu bamu misena yonse balafwamba uku ne uku ne kunyamuna balwashi pa mampasa, kuya nabo uko nkobalanyumfeti nkwabele.and ran through that whole region, carrying the sick on mats to wherever they heard He was.

56Calaba cakwinseti mumunshi mwalengili, nambi mu minshi inene inene, nambi mumisena yashinguluka iliyonse, bantu balikwikalika balwashi mumisena ya makwebo. Balikumusengeti bakumyeko kucelele kwamwinjila wakendi wakunsa. Neco bangi balakumya ne kusenguka.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.
