Lukas 8
1 Eta guero guertha cedin hura ioaiten baitzen hiriz hiri, eta burguz burgu, predicatzen eta euangelizatzen çuela Iaincoaren resumá eta hamabiac ciraden harequin:
Soon after that, Jesus went, along with his twelve [disciples], through various cities and villages. As they went, he was telling people the good message about how God wants (to have complete control/to rule) [MET] [over their lives].
2 Eta emazte batzu harçaz spiritu gaichtoetaric, eta eritassunetaric sendatuac, Maria deitzen cena Magdalena, ceinaganic çazpi deabru ilki içen baitziraden,
Some women from whom he had expelled evil spirits and healed of diseases also [went with him]. These included Mary, the woman from Magdala [village], from whom [he had expelled] seven evil spirits;
3 Eta Ioanna Herodesen procuradore. Chuz deitzen cenaren emaztea, eta Susanna, eta berceric anhitz bere onetaric hura aiutatzen çutenic.
Joanna, the wife of Chuza, who was one of [King] Herod [Antipas’] officials; Susanna; and many others. They were providing some of their own funds [to help Jesus and his disciples].
4 Eta nola gendetze handia biltzen baitzen, eta hiri gucietaric anhitz harengana ioaiten, erran ceçan comparationez,
A large crowd of people came to Jesus from many towns. Then he told them this parable:
5 Ilki cedin ereillebat bere haciaren ereitera: eta ereitean partebat eror cedin bide bazterrera: eta aurizqui içan cen, eta ceruco choriéc irets ceçaten hura.
“A man went out [to his field] to sow [some] seeds. As he was scattering them over the soil, some [of the seeds] fell on the path. Then [people] walked on those seeds, and birds ate them.
6 Eta berce partebat eror cedin harri gainera, eta sorthuric eyhar cedin, ceren ezpaitzuen hecetassunic:
Some [of the seeds] fell on rock [on which there was a thin layer of] moist [soil]. As soon as the seeds grew, the plants dried up because they had no moisture.
7 Eta berce partebat eror cedin elhorri artera: eta harequin batean sorthuric elhorriéc itho ceçaten hura.
Some [of the seeds] fell on [ground that contained roots of] thorny [weeds]. The thorny weeds grew [together] with the young plants, and [they] crowded out [those plants].
8 Eta bercea eror cedin lur onera: eta sorthuric eguin ceçan fructu ehunetan hambat. Hauén erraitean oihuz cegoen, Ençuteco beharriric duenac, ençun beça.
But some of the seeds fell on good soil and grew [well]. [Each seed later] produced 100 [grains].” Then Jesus called out to them, “If you want to understand [MTY] this, you must consider [carefully what I have just said]!”
9 Eta interrogatzen çuten bere discipuluéc erraiten çutela, ceric cen comparatione hura.
Jesus’ disciples [later] asked him about the meaning of the parable [he had just told].
10 Eta harc erran ciecén, Çuey eman çaiçue Iaincoaren resumaco mysterioén eçagutzea: baina bercey comparationez, dacussatelaric ikus ezteçaten, eta dançutelaric adi ezteçaten.
He said, “God is revealing to you what he did not reveal before, about [how he wants to] rule [MET] [over people’s lives]. But when I am telling other people about [these things, I tell them] only in parables. The result will be [like a prophet predicted long ago]: They will see [what I am doing], but will not perceive [what it means]. They will hear [what I am saying], but will not understand [it].
11 Haur da bada comparationea, Hacia da Iaincoaren hitza.
So this is the meaning of that parable: The seeds [represent] God’s message.
12 Eta bide bazterrecoac dirade, ençuten dutenac: guero ethorten da deabrua, eta kencen du hitza hayén bihotzetic, sinhetsiric salua eztitecençát.
[Some people are like] the path on which some of [the seeds fell]. When these people hear God’s message, the devil comes and causes them to forget what they have heard. As a result, they do not believe it, and will not be saved {[God] will not save them}.
13 Eta harri gainecoac dirade, ençun dutenean bozcariorequin recebitzen dutenac hitza: baina hauc erroric eztute, hauc demboratacotz sinhesten duté, eta tentationeco demborán retiratzen dirade.
[Some people are like] the [soil with] rock [underneath]. When they hear [God’s] message, they accept it joyfully. [But because it does not penetrate deeply] [MET] [into their inner beings], they believe it for [only] a [short] time. [They are like the plants that] did not have [deep] roots. When difficult things happen to them, they stop believing [God’s message].
14 Eta elhorri artera erori dena, hauc dirade ençun dutenac: baina partitu eta, ansiéz eta abrastassunéz eta vicitze hunetaco voluptatéz ithotzen dirade, eta eztuté fructuric ekarten.
[Some people are like] the [soil that had roots of] thorny [weeds] in it. They are people who accept [God’s message], but later on they worry about things, and try to become rich, and enjoy [things that give them] a lot of pleasure. So they do not become [spiritually] mature.
15 Baina lur onera erori dena, hauc dirade bihotz honestean eta onean hitz ençuna eduquiten dutenac eta fructu patientiatan ekarten dutenac
But [some people are like] the good soil. They hear [God’s] message and accept it. They [become] good, honest people, and they continue doing things [that please God] [MET].”
16 Eta nehorc arguia viztu duenean, eztu hura vnci batez estaltzen, edo ohe azpian eçarten: baina candeler gainean eçarten du, sartzen diradenéc arguia ikus deçatençát.
“After people light a lamp, they do not cover it with a basket or put it under a bed. Instead, they put it on a lampstand, so that those who enter [their house] can see [things from] its light [MET]. [Similarly, you must tell God’s truth to others so that they can know what I can do for them].
17 Ecen ezta secreturic, aguerturen eztenic: ez estaliric, eçaguturen, eta arguira ethorriren eztenic.
[God wants to] make clear all [of his truth] that was not evident previously. [He intends] that all of [the truth] that [he] had not revealed before be told openly {that [his people] openly tell [others] all [of the truth] that [he] has not revealed before}.
18 Ikus-açue bada nola ençuten duçuen: ecen norc-ere baitu hari emanen çayo: eta norc-ere ezpaitu, duela vste duena-ere edequiren çayo hari.
So listen carefully [to what I tell you], because [God] will enable those who accept [my truth] to [understand even] more. But [God] will cause those who do not accept [my truth] to not understand even [the little] that they think they have [understood].”
19 Orduan ethor citecen harengana haren ama eta haren anayeac, eta gendetzearen causaz ecin hers cequidizquion.
[One day Jesus’] mother and his [younger] brothers came to see him, but they could not get near him because there was a large crowd [around him in the house].
20 Eta declara cequión, erraiten ceraucatela, Hire ama, eta hire anayeac lekorean diaudec, hi ikussi naiz.
Someone told him, “Your mother and your [younger] brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.”
21 Baina harc ihardesten çuela erran ciecén, Ene ama eta ene anaye dirade Iaincoaren hitza ençuten eta eguiten dutenac.
He replied, “Those who hear God’s message and obey it are [as dear to me] [MET] as my mother and my brothers.”
22 Eta guertha cedin egun batez, hura sar baitzedin vncian eta haren discipuluac: eta erran ciecén, Iragan gaitecen lacaren berce aldera. Eta parti citecen.
One day Jesus got into a boat with his disciples. He said to them, “Let’s go [around to] the other side of the lake.” So they started to go.
23 Eta vncian hec ioaiten ciradela, loac har ceçan: eta iauts cedin haicezco tormentabat lacera: eta vrez bethatzen ciraden, eta peril çutén.
As they were sailing, he fell asleep. A big windstorm struck the lake. Soon the boat was filling with water, and they were in danger.
24 Orduan hurbilduric iratzar ceçaten hura, cioitela, Magistruá, Magistruá, galdu guihoaçac. Eta harc iratzarriric mehatcha citzan haicea eta vraren tempestá: eta cessa citecen, eta sossagu handia eguin cedin.
Jesus’ disciples woke him up. They said [to him], “Master! Master! We [(inc)] are going to drown!” He got up and rebuked the wind and told the waves to be calm. The wind [immediately] stopped blowing and the waves calmed down. [The lake] became calm.
25 Eta erran ciecén, Non da çuen fedea? Hec icituric ceudela mirets ceçaten, cioitela elkarren artean, Baina nor da haur, haiceac eta vra manatzen baititu eta obeditzen baitute?
He said to them, “(I [am disappointed that] you did not trust me [to help you]!/Why did you not trust me [to help you]?)” [RHQ] They were afraid. They were also amazed. They said to each other, “(What kind of man is this?/This man is not like ordinary men!) [RHQ] He [not only commands people, but] when he commands the wind and the water, they also obey him!”
26 Guero tira ceçaten Gadarenoen comarcarát, cein baita Galilearen aurkaz aurk.
Jesus and his disciples arrived at the region near Gerasa, a [town] which [was on the eastern] side of Lake [Galilee].
27 Bada hari lurrera ilki eta, bat cequión hiri hartaco guiçon dembora lucez gueroz deabrua çuen-bat: eta abillamenduz etzén veztitzen, eta etchetan etzen egoiten, baina thumbetan.
[There was] a man [in that region] in whom demons lived. [He was] from the town [of Gerasa]. (OR, [In that area there was] a man [from that town] whom demons controlled.) For a long time he had not worn clothes. He did not live in a house. Instead, he lived in burial caves.
28 Eta harc ikussi çuenean Iesus, heyagoraz cegoela, egotz ceçan bere buruä haren aitzinera, eta ocengui erran ceçan, Cer da hire eta ene artean, Iesus Iainco subiranoaren Semeá? othoitz eguiten drauat, ezneçála, tormenta.
Many times [demons] attacked him. He was guarded {[People] tried to guard him} [so that he would not injure others]. Chains were fastened {They fastened chains} on his hands and shackles on his feet, but he would break the chains and shackles. Then he would be sent away by the demons {the demons would send him away} to some desolate area. When Jesus stepped out of the boat onto the shore, the man saw him. He [ran to Jesus] and prostrated himself before him. Then Jesus commanded, “You evil spirit, come out of that man!” But it [did not leave immediately. Instead, it] caused the man to shout very loudly, “Jesus, Son of the great God in heaven, since we [(inc)] have nothing in common, [leave me alone] [RHQ]! I beg you, do not torture me [now]!”
29 Ecen manatzen çuen spiritu satsua guiçonaganic ilki ledin: ecen dembora lucez eduqui çuen hura: eta estecaturic cadenaz eta cepoez beguiratzen cen: baina estecailluac çathituric eramaiten cen deabruaz desertuetara.
30 Orduan interroga ceçan hura Iesusec, cioela, Nola duc icen? Eta harc erran ceçan, Legione. Ecen anhitz deabru sarthu ciraden hura baithan.
[In order to expel the demon more easily], Jesus asked [the demon], “What is your [(sg)] name?” He replied, “My name is Crowd/Mob.” [He said that] because many demons had entered that man.
[The demons] kept begging [Jesus] that he would not command them to go into the deep place [where God punishes demons]. (Abyssos g12)
32 Eta cen han vrdalde handibat alha cenic mendian: eta othoitz eguiten ceraucaten permetti liecén hetara sartzera: eta permetti ciecén.
There was a large herd of pigs (grazing/rooting for food) on the hillside. The demons begged Jesus that he allow them to enter the pigs. So he did.
33 Ilkiric bada deabruac guiçónaganic sar citecen vrdetara: eta vrdaldea oldar cedin gainetic behera lac-era, eta itho cedin.
The demons left the man and entered the pigs. Then the herd [of pigs] rushed down the steep bank into the lake and drowned.
34 Eta vrdainéc ikussi çutenean cer eguin içan cen, ihes eguin ceçaten: eta partituric conta ceçaten hirian eta campoetan.
When the men who were taking care of the pigs saw what happened, they ran! They told people inside the town and outside the town what had happened.
35 Orduan gendeac ilki citecen eguin içan cenaren ikustera, eta ethor citecen Iesusgana, eta eriden ceçaten guiçona ceinetaric deabruac ilki içan baitziraden, veztitua, eta cençatua, iarriric cegoela Iesusen oinetara: eta ici citecen.
So people went out to see what had happened. When they came to where Jesus was, they saw that the man from whom Jesus had [expelled] the demons was sitting at the feet of Jesus, [listening to him]. He had clothes on, and his mind was normal again. Then those people became afraid [because they thought that Jesus would destroy more of their property] (OR, [because they realized that he must be very powerful]).
36 Eta conta ciecen hæy ikussi vkan çutenec-ere, nola sendatu içan cen demoniatu içana.
The people who had seen what happened told those [who had just arrived] how [Jesus] had healed the man whom demons were controlling [before].
37 Orduan othoitz eguin cieçoten Gadarenoén aldiri inguruco gendetze guciac, parti ledin hetaric: ecen icidura handic hartu cituen: eta hura vncira sarthuric, itzul cedin.
Then [those people and] many other people [HYP] from the area near Gerasa asked Jesus to leave their area. They were very afraid of [what else Jesus would do to them]. So [Jesus and the disciples] got into the boat to go back across the lake.
38 Eta othoitz ceguión guiçon harc, ceinaganic ilki içan baitziraden deabruac, harequin licén: baina Iesusec igor ceçan, cioela,
The man from whom he had [expelled] the demons begged him saying, “[Please], let me go with you!” But [Jesus refused. Instead], he said to him,
39 Itzul adi eure etchera, eta conta eçac cein gauça handiac eguin drauzquián Iaincoac. Ioan cedin bada hiri gucitic predicatzen cituela Iesusec eguin cerauzcan gauça guciac:
“[No], go home and tell people how much God has done for you!” Then he sent him away. So the man went away and told people throughout the nearby town how much Jesus had done for him.
40 Eta guertha cedin itzuli cenean Iesus, recebi baitzeçan gendetzeac: ecen guciac haren beguira ceuden.
When [Jesus and the disciples] returned [to Capernaum], a crowd of people who had been waiting for him welcomed him.
41 Orduan huná, ethor cedin Iairus deitzen cen guiçombat, eta hura cen synagogaco principal: eta egotzi çuenean bere buruä Iesusen oinetara, othoitz eguin cieçon sar ledin haren etchera:
Just then a man named Jairus, who was one of the leaders (of the synagogue/of the Jewish meeting place) [there], came near and prostrated himself at Jesus’ feet. He pleaded with Jesus, “Please come to my house [and heal my daughter],
42 Ecen alaba bakoitzbat çuen hamabi vrtheren ingurucoa, eta hura çohian hiltzera. Eta ioaitean gendetzeac hertsen çuen.
my only daughter, who is about twelve years old, because she is dying!” As Jesus went with him, many people crowded close to Jesus.
43 Eta hamabi vrthez gueroztic odola baratzen etzayon, eta medicuetan bere sustantia gucia despendatu çuen, eta batez-ere ecin sendatu içan cen emaztebatec,
Then a woman came near. She had been suffering from constant [vaginal] [EUP] bleeding for twelve years, but she could not be healed by anyone {no one could heal her}.
44 Hurbilduric guibeletic hunqui ceçan haren arropa ezpaina eta bertan gueldi cedin haren odol iariatzea.
She came behind [Jesus] and touched the edge of his robe [in order to be healed]. At once her bleeding stopped.
45 Orduan dio Iesusec, Nor da ni hunqui nauena? Eta guciéc vkatzen çutenaren gainean, erran ceçan Pierrisec, eta harequin ciradenéc, Magistruá, gendetzéc hertsen eta aurizquiten aute, eta dioc, Nor da ni hunqui nauena?
Jesus said, “Who touched me?” When everyone said that they had not touched him, Peter said, “Lord, there is a large crowd of people around you [(sg)] and crowding against you, [so any one of them might have touched you]!”
46 Baina Iesusec dio, Norbaitec hunqui nau ecen eçagutu dut verthute eneganic ilki içan dela.
But Jesus said, “[I know that] someone [deliberately] touched me, [because] my power has healed someone [who touched me].”
47 Emazte hura bada ikussiric ecen etzayola estali içan, ethor cedin ikara çabilala: eta bere buruä haren aitzinera egotziric declara cieçón populu guciaren aitzinean cer causaz hura hunqui çuen, eta nola sendatu içan cen bertan.
When the woman realized that she could not prevent [Jesus] (OR, [people]) from knowing that [she was healed], her body began to shake. [She was afraid that because she had disobeyed the law that a woman with such a condition should not touch others, Jesus might scold her for doing that]. She prostrated herself before Jesus. As the other people were listening, she told why she had touched him and how she had been healed immediately.
48 Eta harc erran cieçón, Alabá aun bihotz on eure fedeac sendatu au: oha baquerequin.
[Jesus] said to her, “(Ma’am/My dear woman), because you believed [PRS] [that I could heal you, I] have healed you. Go [from here, and may you experience God’s] peace [within you].”
49 Oraino hura minço cela, ethor cedin cembeit synagogaco principalarenetic, hari ciotsala, Hil içan duc hire alabá: ezteçala fatiga Magistrua.
While he was still talking [to her], a man from Jairus’ house came and said to Jairus, “Your daughter has died. So (it is useless that you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]!/why do you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]?) [RHQ]”
50 Baina Iesusec ençunic ihardets cieçón nescatcharen aitári. Ezaicela beldur, sinhets eçac solament, eta hura sendaturen baita.
But when Jesus heard that, he said to Jairus, “Do not think that there is nothing more that can be done. Just believe that [I can help her. If you(sg) do that], she will live again.”
51 Eta etchera sarthuric, etzeçan nehor sartzera vtzi Pierris eta Iacques eta Ioannes eta nescatcharen aita eta ama baicen,
When they arrived outside Jairus’ house, Jesus allowed only Peter, John, James, and the girl’s mother and father to go in Jairus’ house with him.
52 Eta nigarrez ceuden guciac, eta lamentatzen çutén: baina harc erran ceçan, Eztaguiçuela nigarric: ezta hil, baina lo datza.
All the people [there] were crying and beating their chests [to show that they were sad]. But, [knowing that he would cause the girl to live again], he said to them, “Stop crying! She is not dead! She is [just] sleeping [MET]!”
53 Eta truffatzen ciraden harçaz, hil cela iaquinez.
The people laughed at him, because they knew that [the girl] was dead.
54 Eta harc, guciac campora iraitziric, eta haren escua harturic, oihu eguin ceçan, cioela, Nescatchá, iaiqui adi.
But [Jesus] took hold of her hand and called to her, saying, “Child, get up!”
55 Eta itzul cedin haren spiritua, eta iaiqui cedin bertan: eta mana ceçan eman lequión iatera.
At once her spirit returned [to her body] and she got up. Jesus immediately said, “Give her something to eat!”
56 Eta spanta citecen haren aita-amác: baina harc mana citzan nehori ezlerroten eguin içan cena.
Her parents were amazed, but Jesus told them not to tell anyone [else yet] what had happened.
