< Mark 10 >

1 He arose from there and came into the borders of Judea and beyond the Jordan. Multitudes came together to him again. As he usually did, he was again teaching them.
Ọ hapụrụ ebe ahụ gaa nʼobodo ndị dị na mpaghara Judịa ma gafeekwa nʼofe Jọdan. Igwe mmadụ bịakwutekwara ya, ọzọ, dị ka o si emekwa, o ziri ha ihe.
2 Pharisees came to him testing him, and asked him, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?”
Ụfọdụ ndị Farisii bịara, ma nʼihi ị nwalee ya, ha jụrụ ya sị, “O ziri ezi nʼiwu ka nwoke gbaa nwunye ya alụkwaghị m?”
3 He answered, “What did Moses command you?”
Ma ọ zara ha sị, “Gịnị ka Mosis nyere unu nʼiwu?”
4 They said, “Moses allowed a certificate of divorce to be written, and to divorce her.”
Ha sịrị, “Mosis kwenyere ka nwoke dee asambodo alụkwaghị m, nye nwunye ya ma zilaga ya.”
5 But Jesus said to them, “For your hardness of heart, he wrote you this commandment.
Jisọs sịrị ha, “Ọ bụ nʼihi na obi unu siri ike nke ukwuu ka o ji deere unu iwu a.
6 But from the beginning of the creation, God made them male and female.
Ma na mmalite nke okike ụwa, Chineke ‘kere ha nwoke na nwanyị.’
7 For this cause a man will leave his father and mother, and will join to his wife,
‘Nʼihi nke a ka nwoke ga-eji hapụ nne ya na nna ya e jikọta ya na nwunye ya.
8 and the two will become one flesh, so that they are no longer two, but one flesh.
Ha abụọ ga-abụ otu anụ ahụ.’Ya mere, ha abụkwaghị mmadụ abụọ ọzọ, kama otu anụ ahụ.
9 What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate.”
Ya mere, ihe Chineke jikọtara, ka mmadụ ọbụla atọsala ya.”
10 In the house, his disciples asked him again about the same matter.
Mgbe ha banyere nʼụlọ, ndị na-eso ụzọ ya jụrụ ya ọzọ ihe banyere okwu a.
11 He said to them, “Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her.
Ọ sịrị ha, “Onye ọbụla gbara nwunye ya alụkwaghị m ma lụrụ nwanyị ọzọ na-eme mmehie ịkwa iko megide ya.
12 If a woman herself divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery.”
Ma ọ bụrụ na nwanyị ọbụla agbaa dị ya alụkwaghị m ma lụrụ nwoke ọzọ, ọ na-emekwa mmehie ịkwa iko.”
13 They were bringing to him little children, that he should touch them, but the disciples rebuked those who were bringing them.
Ndị mmadụ na-ekutere ya ụmụntakịrị ka o metụ ha aka, ma ndị na-eso ụzọ ya baara ha mba.
14 But when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation and said to them, “Allow the little children to come to me! Do not forbid them, for God’s Kingdom belongs to such as these.
Ma mgbe Jisọs hụrụ nke a, iwe were ya nke ukwuu, ọ sịrị ha, “Hapụnụ ụmụntakịrị ka ha bịakwute m. Unu egbochikwala ha. Nʼihi na alaeze Chineke bụ nke ndị dị otu a.
15 Most certainly I tell you, whoever will not receive God’s Kingdom like a little child, he will in no way enter into it.”
Nʼeziokwu asị m unu, onye ọbụla nke na-agaghị anabata alaeze Chineke dị ka nwantakịrị agaghị aba nʼime ya.”
16 He took them in his arms and blessed them, laying his hands on them.
Mgbe ahụ, o kuuru ha nʼaka ya, bikwasị ha aka ya abụọ ma gọzie ha.
17 As he was going out into the way, one ran to him, knelt before him, and asked him, "Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit consummate (aiōnios g166) life?"
Mgbe ọ na-ebili njem, otu nwoke gbaara ọsọ bịa gbuo ikpere nʼihu ya. Ọ jụrụ ya sị, “Ezi onye ozizi ọma, gịnị ka m ga-eme ka m keta ndụ ebighị ebi?” (aiōnios g166)
18 Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good except one—God.
Jisọs sịrị ya, “Gịnị mere i ji akpọ m ezi mmadụ? Ọ dịghị onye ọbụla bụ ezi mmadụ ma ọ bụghị naanị Chineke.
19 You know the commandments: ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not commit adultery,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not give false testimony,’ ‘Do not defraud,’ ‘Honor your father and mother.’”
Ị maara ihe niile enyere nʼiwu: ‘Egbula mmadụ, a kwala iko, e zula ohi, a gbala ama ụgha, a ghọgbula mmadụ ibe gị, sọpụrụ nne na nna gị.’”
20 He said to him, “Teacher, I have observed all these things from my youth.”
Ọ sịrị ya, “E, onye ozizi, Edebezuchaala m ha niile siterị na mgbe m bụ nwata.”
21 Jesus looking at him loved him, and said to him, “One thing you lack. Go, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me, taking up the cross.”
Jisọs lere ya anya, hụ ya nʼanya. Mgbe ahụ, ọ gwara ya sị, “Ọ fọdụrụ naanị otu ihe ị ga-eme. Laa, ugbu a, ree ihe niile i nwere, nyekwa ndị ogbenye ego i retara. I mesịa nke a, ị ga-enwe akụ nʼeluigwe. Mgbe ahụ bịaghachi soro m.”
22 But his face fell at that saying, and he went away sorrowful, for he was one who had great possessions.
Mgbe ọ nụrụ okwu a, ihu ya gbarụrụ. O sitere nʼebe ahụ pụọ na mwute, nʼihi na ọ bụ ọgaranya nke nwere ọtụtụ akụnụba.
23 Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter into God’s Kingdom!”
Jisọs legharịrị anya gwa ndị na-eso ụzọ ya sị, “Lee ka o si bụrụ ihe rara ahụ na onye ọgaranya ga-abanye nʼalaeze Chineke.”
24 The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus answered again, “Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter into God’s Kingdom!
Okwu ya tụrụ ndị na-eso ụzọ ya nʼanya, ma Jisọs gwakwara ha ọzọ sị, “Ụmụntakịrị, ọ bụ nnọọ ihe rara ahụ ịbanye nʼalaeze Chineke.
25 It is easier for a camel to go through a needle’s eye than for a rich man to enter into God’s Kingdom.”
Ọ dịrị ịnyịnya kamel mfe isite nʼanya agịga gafee, karịa onye ọgaranya ịbanye nʼalaeze Chineke.”
26 They were exceedingly astonished, saying to him, “Then who can be saved?”
Okwu a jubigara ha anya oke. Ha jụrịtara ibe ha sị, “Onye kwanụ ka a ga-azọpụta?”
27 Jesus, looking at them, said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God, for all things are possible with God.”
Ma Jisọs lere ha anya sị ha, “Nʼebe mmadụ nọ, ọ bụ ihe rara ahụ. Ma nʼebe Chineke nọ, ihe niile dị mfe. Ọ dịghị ihe rara Chineke ahụ ime.”
28 Peter began to tell him, “Behold, we have left all and have followed you.”
Pita malitere ịgwa ya sị, “Anyị ahapụla ihe niile soro gị!”
29 Jesus said, “Most certainly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or land, for my sake, and for the sake of the Good News,
Jisọs sịrị, “Nʼezie, nʼezie, agwa m unu, ọ dịghị onye ọbụla hapụrụ ụlọ ya, maọbụ ụmụnne ya ndị nwoke, maọbụ ụmụnne ya ndị nwanyị, maọbụ nne ya, maọbụ nna ya, maọbụ ụmụntakịrị ya, maọbụ ala ubi ya nʼihi m, na nʼihi oziọma a,
30 but he will receive one hundred times more now in this time: houses, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and land, with persecutions; and in the age (aiōn g165) to come, consummate (aiōnios g166) life.
nke na-agaghị anataghachikwa nʼụwa a, ụlọ, ụmụnne ndị nwoke, ụmụnne ndị nwanyị, nne, ụmụaka na ala ubi, tinyere mkpagbu, ihe ruru okpukpu narị karịa ihe niile nke ọ hapụrụ. Ọ ga-anatakwa ndụ ebighị ebi nʼụwa ọzọ. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
31 But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”
Ma ọtụtụ ndị bu ụzọ ga-abụ ndị ikpeazụ, ma ọtụtụ ndị ikpeazụ ga-abụkwa ndị bu ụzọ.”
32 They were on the way, going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was going in front of them, and they were amazed; and those who followed were afraid. He again took the twelve, and began to tell them the things that were going to happen to him.
Ha nọ nʼụzọ na-aga Jerusalem, ma Jisọs nọ nʼihu ha, nke a juru ndị na-eso ụzọ ya nʼanya. Otu a kwa, ndị mmadụ niile na-abịa ha nʼazụ tụkwara egwu. Ọzọkwa, ọ kpọpụrụ mmadụ iri na abụọ ahụ nʼakụkụ, malite ịgwa ha ihe gaje ịdakwasị ya.
33 “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem. The Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and the scribes. They will condemn him to death, and will deliver him to the Gentiles.
Ọ sịrị, “Leenụ, anyị na-aga Jerusalem, ebe a ga-arara Nwa nke Mmadụ nyefee nʼaka ndịisi nchụaja na ndị ozizi iwu. Ha ga-ama ya ikpe ọnwụ, nyefekwa ya nʼaka ndị mba ọzọ.
34 They will mock him, spit on him, scourge him, and kill him. On the third day he will rise again.”
Ha ga-akwa ya emo, gbụsakwa ya ọnụ mmiri asụ, pịa ya ihe ma gbukwaa ya. Ma mgbe ụbọchị atọ gasịrị, ọ ga-esite nʼọnwụ bilie.”
35 James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came near to him, saying, “Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we will ask.”
Jemis na Jọn ụmụ Zebedi bịakwutere ya. Ha sịrị ya, “Onye ozizi, anyị chọrọ ka i meere anyị ihe ọbụla anyị rịọrọ.”
36 He said to them, “What do you want me to do for you?”
Ọ sịrị ha, “Gịnị ka unu chọrọ ka m meere unu?”
37 They said to him, “Grant to us that we may sit, one at your right hand and one at your left hand, in your glory.”
Ha sịrị ya, “Kwere ka otu onye nʼime anyị nọrọ nʼaka nri gị, onye nke ọzọ nʼaka ekpe gị nʼime ebube gị.”
38 But Jesus said to them, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?”
Ma Jisọs sịrị ha, “Unu amataghị ihe unu na-arịọ. Unu pụrụ ịṅụ iko ahụ mụ onwe m ga-aṅụ maọbụ bụrụ ndị a ga-eme ụdị baptizim a ga-eme m?”
39 They said to him, “We are able.” Jesus said to them, “You shall indeed drink the cup that I drink, and you shall be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with;
Ha zaghachiri ya, “Anyị pụrụ.” Jisọs sịrị ha, “Unu ga-aṅụ iko m ga-aṅụ, a ga-emekwa unu baptizim nke a ga-eme m.
40 but to sit at my right hand and at my left hand is not mine to give, but for whom it has been prepared.”
Ma ịnọdụ nʼaka nri m maọbụ nʼaka ekpe m abụghị ihe dịrị m inye, kama ọnọdụ ndị a dịịrị ndị a kwadooro ha.”
41 When the ten heard it, they began to be indignant toward James and John.
Mgbe mmadụ iri ndị ọzọ nụrụ nke a, iwe jupụtara ha obi nʼihi Jemis na Jọn.
42 Jesus summoned them and said to them, “You know that they who are recognized as rulers over the nations lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.
Ma Jisọs kpọkọtara ha niile sị ha, “Dị ka unu onwe unu maara, ndị eze nke ndị mba ọzọ, na ndị a maara aha ha, na-eji aka ike na-achị ndị nọ nʼokpuru ha.
43 But it shall not be so among you, but whoever wants to become great among you shall be your servant.
Ma nʼetiti unu ọ gaghị adị otu a. Kama onye ọbụla chọrọ ịdị ukwuu nʼetiti unu ga-abụ onye na-ejere unu ozi.
44 Whoever of you wants to become first among you shall be bondservant of all.
Onye ọbụla nke chọrọ ịbụ onye mbụ nʼetiti unu, ga-abụ ohu mmadụ niile.
45 For the Son of Man also came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
Nʼihi na Nwa nke Mmadụ abịaghị ka e jeere ya ozi. Kama ka o jee ozi ma nyekwa ndụ ya ka ọ bụrụ ihe mgbapụta nke ọtụtụ mmadụ.”
46 They came to Jericho. As he went out from Jericho with his disciples and a great multitude, the son of Timaeus, Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the road.
Mgbe ha ruru Jeriko, dị ka Jisọs na ndị na-eso ụzọ ya na ọtụtụ igwe mmadụ sitere nʼobodo Jeriko na-apụ, otu nwoke kpuru ìsì aha ya bụ Batimiọs (aha ya pụtara “nwa nwoke Timiọs”), onye arịrịọ nọdụrụ ala nʼakụkụ ụzọ.
47 When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out and say, “Jesus, you son of David, have mercy on me!”
Mgbe ọ nụrụ na ọ bụ Jisọs onye Nazaret na-agafe, o bidoro iti mkpu na-asị, “Jisọs, nwa Devid, meere m ebere!”
48 Many rebuked him, that he should be quiet, but he cried out much more, “You son of David, have mercy on me!”
Ọtụtụ mmadụ bara ya mba ka o mechie ọnụ. Ma ọ nọgidesịrị ike na-eti mkpu na-asị, “Nwa Devid, meere m ebere!”
49 Jesus stood still and said, “Call him.” They called the blind man, saying to him, “Cheer up! Get up. He is calling you!”
Jisọs kwụsịrị kwuo sị, “Kpọọnụ ya.” Ya mere ha kpọrọ onye ìsì ahụ, sị ya, “Mesaa ihu gị bilie nʼụkwụ gị, ọ na-akpọ gị.”
50 He, casting away his cloak, sprang up, and came to Jesus.
Ọ tufuru uwe mwụda ya, wulie nʼụkwụ ya, bịakwute Jisọs.
51 Jesus asked him, “What do you want me to do for you?” The blind man said to him, “Rabboni, that I may see again.”
Jisọs sịrị ya, “Gịnị ka ị chọrọ ka m meere gị?” Onye ìsì ahụ sịrị ya, “Onye ozizi m, achọrọ m ka m hụ ụzọ.”
52 Jesus said to him, “Go your way. Your faith has made you well.” Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus on the way.
Jisọs sịrị ya, “Laa, okwukwe gị azọpụtala gị.” Nʼotu oge ahụ, o bidoro ịhụ ụzọ, sorokwa ya gawa nʼụzọ ahụ.
