Mark 6 (SHR) · Opened

1Erhi arhenga eyo, ajà omu cihugo c’emwâbo, n’abaganda bâge bamukulikira.Jesus went on from there and came to His hometown, accompanied by His disciples.

2Erhi kubà lwa Sabato, arhondêr’ayigîriza omu sinagogi; na banji, erhi bamuyumva, basômerwa banakâderha, mpu: «Ngahi amâkûla okwo kwoshi? N’obu bwenge boshi agwêrhe n’ebirhangâzo bidwîrhe byajirwa n’amaboko gâge?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?

3K’arhali mubinji oyu, mugala wa Mariya, mwene wâbo Yakôbo, na Yozefu, na Yûda, na Simoni? Na bâli bâbo, k’arhali kwo babà kuno mwîrhu?» Banacimulola kubî.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.

4Naye Yezu ababwîra, erhi: «Ntà handi omulêbi abula okukengwa omurhali omu cihugo câge, n’omu ishanja lyâge, n’omu mwâge».Then Jesus said to them, “Only in his hometown, among his relatives, and in his own household is a prophet without honor.”

5Na ntà cisômerîne ciru n’eciguma ajizire eyo munda. Balwâla banyi bônene ahizirekwo amaboko, abafumya.So He could not perform any miracles there, except to lay His hands on a few of the sick and heal them.

6Okubula obuyêmêre kwâbo kwamusômera. Anacij’ageragera omu bishagala by’eburhambi, aj’ayigîriza.And He was amazed at their unbelief. And He went around from village to village, teaching the people.

7Ahamagala balya ikumi na babiri. Arhondêra okubarhuma babiri babiri, abahà obuhashe oku bazimu babî.Then Jesus called the Twelve to Him and began to send them out two by two, giving them authority over unclean spirits.

8Abahanza mpu barhahêkaga cici oku njira, aha nyuma y’akarhi konene: ciru n’enshangu y’obuntu, erhi nshoho, erhi bujuma bw’igerha omu luhago;He instructed them to take nothing but a staff for the journey—no bread, no bag, no money in their belts—

9ci mpu bayambale enkwêrho, barhanacihundikiraga bishûli bibiri.and to wear sandals, but not a second tunic.

10Ababwîra, erhi: «Ngasi hoshi mwanaje omu nyumpa, mubêremwo kuhika murhenge halya.And He told them, “When you enter a house, stay there until you leave that area.

11Aha bâbule okumuyankirira n’okummuyumva, muharhenge munagukumule akatulo kamuli oku nshando, kuyish’ibà câgizo cinyu kuli bo».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.”

12Okubundi banacilîkûla, bajà bayigîriza abantu mpu bacîyunjuze;So they set out and preached that the people should repent.

13bakâlibirhakwo bashetani banji, bakashîga balwâla banji amavurha, banakaz’ibafumya.They also drove out many demons and healed many of the sick, anointing them with oil.

14Mwâmi Herodi anaciyumva emyanzi yâge, bulya izîno lyâge lyàli lyajîre irenge. Bakâg’iderha, mpu: «Yowane Mubatiza afûsire omu bafù: kwo kumudwîrhîre ebi bisômerîne adwîrhe ajira».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.”

15Abandi bakaderha, mpu: «Eliya oyu». N’abandi, mpu: «Mulêbi oyo nka abandi balêbi».Others were saying, “He is Elijah,” and still others, “He is a prophet, like one of the prophets of old.”

16Herodi, erhi ayumva, aderha, erhi: «Yowane natwag’irhwe oyo ofûsire omu bafù!»But when Herod heard this, he said, “John, whom I beheaded, has risen from the dead!”

17Bulya Herodi yênene warhumaga abagwârha Yowane b’anamuhira omu mpamikwa erhi Herodiyada, mukà-mwene wâbo Filipo, orhuma, amamuyanka.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.

18Bulya Yowane abwîraga Herodi, erhi: «Ntà bwêmêre ogwêrhe bw’okuherula mukà-mwene winyu».For John had been telling Herod, “It is not lawful for you to have your brother’s wife!”

19Kurhenga aho Herodiyada amukunirira anakalonza okumuyîrha, ci ayabirwa,So Herodias held a grudge against John and wanted to kill him. But she had been unable,

20bulya Herodi akâg’irhînya Yowane, oku kubà àli muntu mushinganyanya na Mutagatîfu, anakag’imulanga. Erhi amuyumvagya, omurhima gunamulye, ci okwo kurharhumaga arhakâsima okumuyumvîrhiza.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.

21Lêro olusiku alingaga lwanaciyisha: lwo lusiku lukulu lw’okuburhwa kwa Herodi. anacijira idinye, alâlika abarhambo bâge, abakulu b’abasirika n’abashamuka b’e Galileya.On Herod’s birthday, her opportunity arose. Herod held a banquet for his nobles and military commanders and the leading men of Galilee.

22Mwâli wa Herodiyada erhi ayisha, aj’eruhya, arhamba, asîmîsa Herodi n’abalalike. Okubundi mwâmi anacibwîra olya mwâna-nyere, erhi: «Ompûne ngasi eci olonzize, nakuhâco».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.”

23Anacimubwîra n’endahiro, erhi: «Ngasi eci wankampûna, nakuhâco, ciru cankaba luhande lw’Obwâmi bwâni».And he swore to her, “Whatever you ask of me, I will give you, up to half my kingdom!”

24Olya munyere ahuluka, aj’ibwîra nnina, erhi: «Cici nahûna?» Naye nnina, erhi: «Irhwe lya Yowane Mubatiza».Then she went out and asked her mother, “What should I request?” And her mother answered, “The head of John the Baptist.”

25Ashub’iyisha alibirhîre emunda mwâmi àli, amubwîra, erhi: «Nahûna ompêre oku nambi bo na buno irhwe lya Yowane Mubatiza».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.”

26Mwâmi acîganya bwenêne, ci endahiro yâge na balya bâli oku cîbo bo naye birhuma, arhacilonzagya okumubonya nshonyi.The king was consumed with sorrow, but because of his oaths and his guests, he did not want to refuse her.

27Obwo mwâmi arhuma omuganda mpu agend’ilêrha irhwe lya Yowane mushwêkwa.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.

28Olya muganda anacigenda, ajà omu mpamikwa, amutwa igosi, ayisha adwîrhe irhwe lyâge oku nambi, anacilihereza olya munyere, naye alihà nnina.The man brought John’s head on a platter and presented it to the girl, who gave it to her mother.

29Erhi abaganda ba Yowane bamanya, bayish’iyanka omurhumba gwâge, bagubisha.When John’s disciples heard about this, they came and took his body and placed it in a tomb.

30Erhi entumwa zishubûka, zacigusha aha Yezu àli, zamurhondêreza emyanzi y’ebi zakozire byoshi n’ebi zayigîrizize.Meanwhile, the apostles gathered around Jesus and brought Him news of all they had done and taught.

31Anacibabwîra, erhi: «Muyishe bufunda aharhali bantu, muluhûke hitya». Bulya abantu bakâg’iyisha n’abakâg’igenda bâli banji bwenêne, ciru entumwa zabula amango g’okulya.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.

32Bacijira omu bwârho, bayikirira aharhali bantu, omu lwihwêko.So they went away in a boat by themselves to a solitary place.

33Abantu erhi babona bacîgendera, banji bamanya ngahi bajà. Bahubuka omu bishagala byoshi, babashokolera n’amagulu, bajicilundayo.But many people saw them leaving and recognized them. They ran together on foot from all the towns and arrived before them.

34Erhi Yezu arhenga omu bwârho, abona engabo y’abantu, obwonjo bwâbo bwamugwârha, bulya bâli nka busô burhagwêrhi mungere: arhondêra okubayigîriza binji.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.

35Erhi izûba lizonga, abaganda bâge bamujaho, bamubwîra, mpu: «Lyamabà irungu lîno, n’izûba lîno lyazika;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.

36lîka abà bantu bagend’igula ebi balya omu bihando n’omu bishagala bya hôfi».Dismiss the crowd so they can go to the surrounding countryside and villages and buy themselves something to eat.”

37Naye abashuza, erhi: «Ka murhabaha ebi balya mwênene!» Nabo bamubwîra, mpu: «Ka rhugend’igula emigati ya ngoyo ibiri, rhubahè 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?”

38Anacibadôsa, erhi: «Migati inga mugwêrhe? Mugend’ilola!» Eerhi bayûs’irhangula, bamubwîra, mpu: «Irhanu na nfî ibiri».“Go and see how many loaves you have,” He told them. And after checking, they said, “Five—and two fish.”

39Anacirhegeka mpu babwârhaze abantu boshi rhudêko rhudêko oku lubala.Then Jesus directed them to have the people sit in groups on the green grass.

40Banacibwârhala birundo birundo, aha igana igana, aha makumi arhanu arhanu.So they sat down in groups of hundreds and fifties.

41Okubundi arhôla erya migati oku eri irhanu na zirya nfî zombi, agalamira emalunga, abigisha, abega erya migati, ayihêreza abaganda bâge mpu bagabulire abantu; na zirya nfî nazo azigabirabo.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.

42Balya boshi, bayigurha.They all ate and were satisfied,

43Banacirhôla ebi bàsizagya, bayunjuza rhushâbulo ikumi na rhubiri rhw’ebisigaliza by’erya migati na zirya nfî.and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces of bread and fish.

44Nabo abalyaga bâli balume bihumbi birhanu.And there were five thousand men who had eaten the loaves.

45Ho n’aho asêza abaganda bâge mpu bajè omu bwârho, babè bashokola banayikirir’e Betisayida, oku naye acidwîrhe asêzera abantu.Immediately Jesus made His disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to Bethsaida, while He dismissed the crowd.

46Erhi ayûs’ibalîka, arheremera oku ntondo mpu aj’ishenga.After bidding them farewell, He went up on the mountain to pray.

47Erhi bibà bijingo, obwârho erhi bwahika omu karhî k’enyanja, naye erhi ali yênene ebulambo.When evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and Jesus was alone on land.

48Erhi acîbona bagukubira n’okuvugama -bulya empûsi yahubukaga embere-, sêzi mucêracêra ayish’alambagira omu nyanja, alonz’ibarhaluka.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,

49Nabo erhi bamubona aj’alambagira oku mîshi, bamanya mpu muzimu, babanda orhuhababo.but when they saw Him walking on the sea, they cried out, thinking He was a ghost—

50Boshi bâli bamubwîne, n’ebihamba byàli bibagwêrhe. Ci ho n’aho ayirukira abaderhêza, anababwîra, erhi: «Muhire omurhima omu nda, nie nnênè, murhayôbohaga!»for they all saw Him and were terrified. But Jesus spoke up at once: “Take courage! It is I. Do not be afraid.”

51Okubundi ajà omu bwârho haguma nabo, omulaba gwatwîka. Bazânwa, barhangâla:Then He climbed into the boat with them, and the wind died down. And the disciples were utterly astounded,

52bulya barhumvagya ciru ehitya ecisômerîne c’erya migati, omurhima gwâbo gwacîyôrhera muzibu.for they had not understood about the loaves, but their hearts had been hardened.

53Erhi bayûs’iyikira, bahika e Jenezareti, basîka obwârho.When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret and moored the boat.

54Oku banayômoka omu bwârho ntya, abantu bayirukira bamumanyirira.As soon as they got out of the boat, the people recognized Jesus

55Banacigeragera omu cihugo coshi, barhondêra okushubûza ngasi boshi bâli bababîre n’endwâla n’okubabarhulira oku ncingo emunda àli.and ran through that whole region, carrying the sick on mats to wherever they heard He was.

56Ngasi hoshi ageraga, akabà omu lugo, akabà omu bishagala, akabà omu ndimiro, bakâhira abalwâla oku njira, banakâmusengera mpu abaleke ciru bahume oku cikwî c’omwambalo gwâge; na ngasi bamuhumirekwo, banacifuma.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.
