< Mark 1 >

1 The beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
Ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ ìyìnrere nípa Jesu Kristi, Ọmọ Ọlọ́run.
2 As it is written in the prophets, “Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you:
Gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti kọ ọ́ nínú ìwé wòlíì Isaiah pé, “Èmi yóò ran oníṣẹ́ mi síwájú rẹ, Ẹni tí yóò tún ọ̀nà rẹ ṣe.”
3 the voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Make ready the way of the Lord! Make his paths straight!’”
“Ohùn ẹni tí ń kígbe ní ijù, ‘Ẹ tún ọ̀nà Olúwa ṣe, ẹ ṣe ojú ọ̀nà rẹ̀ kí ó tọ́.’”
4 John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching the baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins.
Johanu dé, ẹni tí ó ń tẹnibọmi ní aginjù, tí ó sì ń wàásù ìtẹ̀bọmi ìrònúpìwàdà fún ìdáríjì ẹ̀ṣẹ̀.
5 All the country of Judea and all those of Jerusalem went out to him. They were baptized by him in the Jordan river, confessing their sins.
Gbogbo àwọn tí ń gbé ní agbègbè Judea, àti gbogbo ènìyàn Jerusalẹmu jáde tọ̀ ọ́ lọ, a sì ti ọwọ́ rẹ̀ tẹ gbogbo wọn bọ omi ni odò Jordani, wọ́n ń jẹ́wọ́ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn.
6 John was clothed with camel’s hair and a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey.
Johanu sì wọ aṣọ irun ìbákasẹ. Ó sì di àmùrè awọ mọ́ ẹ̀gbẹ́ rẹ̀. Eṣú àti oyin ìgàn sì ni oúnjẹ rẹ̀.
7 He preached, saying, “After me comes he who is mightier than I, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen.
Ó sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í wàásù wí pé, “Ẹnìkan tí ó tóbi jù mí lọ ń bọ̀ lẹ́yìn mi, okùn bàtà ẹsẹ̀ ẹni tí èmi kò tó ẹni tí ń tú.
8 I baptized you in water, but he will baptize you in the Holy Spirit.”
Èmi ń fi omi ṣe ìtẹ̀bọmi yín, ṣùgbọ́n Òun yóò fi Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ ṣe ìtẹ̀bọmi yín.”
9 In those days, Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
Ó sì ṣe ní ọjọ́ kan Jesu ti Nasareti ti Galili jáde wá, a sì ti ọwọ́ Johanu ṣe ìtẹ̀bọmi fún ní odò Jordani.
10 Immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens parting and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.
Lẹ́sẹ̀kẹsẹ̀ tí Jesu ń ti inú omi jáde wá, ó rí ọ̀run tí ó ṣí sílẹ̀, Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ bí àdàbà sọ̀kalẹ̀ lé e lórí.
11 A voice came out of the sky, “You are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
Ohùn kan sì ti ọ̀run wá wí pé, “Ìwọ ni àyànfẹ́ Ọmọ mi, ẹni tí inú mi dùn sí gidigidi.”
12 Immediately the Spirit drove him out into the wilderness.
Lẹ́sẹ̀kan náà, Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ sì darí Jesu sí ijù,
13 He was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals; and the angels were serving him.
Ó sì wà ní ogójì ọjọ́ ní aginjù. A sì ti ọwọ́ Satani dán an wò, ó sì wà pẹ̀lú àwọn ẹranko ìgbẹ́. Àwọn angẹli sì ń ṣe ìránṣẹ́ fún un.
14 Now after John was taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the Good News of God’s Kingdom,
Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ọba Herodu ti fi Johanu sínú ẹ̀wọ̀n tan, Jesu lọ sí Galili, ó ń wàásù ìyìnrere ti ìjọba Ọlọ́run.
15 and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and God’s Kingdom is at hand! Repent, and believe in the Good News.”
Ó sì kéde wí pé, “Àkókò náà dé wàyí, ìjọba Ọlọ́run kù sí dẹ̀dẹ̀. Ẹ yípadà kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín, kí ẹ sì gba ìyìnrere yìí gbọ́.”
16 Passing along by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew, the brother of Simon, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.
Ní ọjọ́ kan, bí Jesu ti ń rìn létí Òkun Galili, Ó rí Simoni àti Anderu arákùnrin rẹ̀, wọ́n ń fi àwọ̀n wọn pẹja torí pé apẹja ni wọ́n.
17 Jesus said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you into fishers for men.”
Jesu sì ké sí wọn wí pé, “Ẹ máa tọ̀ mí lẹ́yìn. Èmi yóò sì sọ yín di apẹja ènìyàn.”
18 Immediately they left their nets, and followed him.
Ní kánkán wọ́n fi àwọ̀n wọn sílẹ̀, wọ́n sì tọ̀ Ọ́ lẹ́yìn.
19 Going on a little further from there, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.
Bí Ó sì ti rìn síwájú díẹ̀, ní etí Òkun, Ó rí Jakọbu ọmọ Sebede àti Johanu arákùnrin rẹ̀ nínú ọkọ̀, wọ́n ń tún àwọ̀n wọn ṣe.
20 Immediately he called them, and they left their father, Zebedee, in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.
Ó sì ké sí àwọn náà lẹ́sẹ̀kẹsẹ̀, wọ́n fi Sebede baba wọn sílẹ̀ nínú ọkọ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn alágbàṣe, wọ́n sì tọ̀ ọ́ lẹ́yìn.
21 They went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and taught.
Lẹ́yìn náà, Jesu àti àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ wọ ìlú Kapernaumu, nígbà tí ó di òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ ìsinmi, ó lọ sínú Sinagọgu, ó sì ń kọ́ni.
22 They were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
Ẹnu sì ya ìjọ ènìyàn nítorí ìkọ́ni rẹ̀, nítorí pé ó ń kọ́ni bí ẹni tí ó ní àṣẹ, kì í ṣe bí àwọn olùkọ́ òfin ṣe ń kọ́ àwọn ènìyàn.
23 Immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,
Ní àsìkò náà gan an ni ọkùnrin kan tí ó wà nínú Sinagọgu wọn, tí ó ní ẹ̀mí àìmọ́, bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í kígbe wí pé,
24 saying, “Ha! What do we have to do with you, Jesus, you Nazarene? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: the Holy One of God!”
“Kí ni ìwọ ń wá lọ́dọ̀ wa, Jesu ti Nasareti? Ṣé ìwọ wá láti pa wá run ni? Èmí mọ ẹni tí ìwọ í ṣe; Ìwọ ní ẹni Mímọ́ Ọlọ́run!”
25 Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be quiet, and come out of him!”
Jesu si bá a wí, ó wí pé, “Pa ẹnu rẹ mọ́, kí ó sì jáde kúrò lára rẹ̀.”
26 The unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.
Ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ náà sì gbé e ṣánlẹ̀ lógèdèǹgbé, ó ké ní ohùn rara, ó sì jáde kúrò lára ọkùnrin náà.
27 They were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, “What is this? A new teaching? For with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him!”
Ẹnu sì ya àwọn ènìyàn, tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí wọ́n fi ń sọ láàrín ara wọn ohun tí ó ti ṣẹlẹ̀. Wọ́n béèrè pẹ̀lú ìgbóná ara, pé, “Kí ni èyí? Irú ẹ̀kọ́ tuntun wo ni èyí? Ó ń fi agbára pàṣẹ fún àwọn ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ pàápàá wọ́n sì gbọ́ tirẹ̀.”
28 The report of him went out immediately everywhere into all the region of Galilee and its surrounding area.
Ìròyìn nípa rẹ̀ tàn ká gbogbo agbègbè Galili.
29 Immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
Nígbà tí wọn sì jáde kúrò nínú Sinagọgu, wọ́n lọ pẹ̀lú Jakọbu àti Johanu sí ilé Simoni àti Anderu.
30 Now Simon’s wife’s mother lay sick with a fever, and immediately they told him about her.
Ìyá ìyàwó Simoni tí ó dùbúlẹ̀ àìsàn ibà, wọ́n sì sọ fún Jesu nípa rẹ̀.
31 He came and took her by the hand and raised her up. The fever left her immediately, and she served them.
Ó sì tọ̀ ọ́ lọ, ó fà á lọ́wọ́, ó sì gbé e dìde; lójúkan náà ibà náà fi sílẹ̀, ó sì ń ṣe ìránṣẹ́ fún wọn.
32 At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all who were sick and those who were possessed by demons.
Nígbà tí ó di àṣálẹ́, tí oòrùn wọ̀, wọ́n gbé gbogbo àwọn aláìsàn àti àwọn tó ni ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ tọ̀ ọ́ wá.
33 All the city was gathered together at the door.
Gbogbo ìlú si péjọ ni ẹnu-ọ̀nà.
34 He healed many who were sick with various diseases and cast out many demons. He didn’t allow the demons to speak, because they knew him.
Jesu sì wo ọ̀pọ̀ tí wọ́n ní onírúurú ààrùn sàn. Bákan náà ni ó lé ọ̀pọ̀ ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ jáde. Ṣùgbọ́n kò sì jẹ́ kí àwọn ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ náà kí ó sọ̀rọ̀, nítorí tí wọ́n mọ ẹni tí òun í ṣe.
35 Early in the morning, while it was still dark, he rose up and went out, and departed into a deserted place, and prayed there.
Ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, kí ilẹ̀ tó mọ́, Jesu nìkan jáde lọ sí aginjù kan, láti lọ gbàdúrà.
36 Simon and those who were with him searched for him.
Simoni àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ yòókù lọ láti wá a.
37 They found him and told him, “Everyone is looking for you.”
Nígbà tí wọ́n sì rí I, wọ́n sọ fún wí pé, “Gbogbo ènìyàn ń wá ọ!”
38 He said to them, “Let’s go elsewhere into the next towns, that I may preach there also, because I came out for this reason.”
Jesu sì dáhùn wí pé, “Ẹ jẹ́ kí a lọ sí àwọn ìlú mìíràn, kí ń lè wàásù níbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú. Nítorí èyí ni èmi sá à ṣe wá.”
39 He went into their synagogues throughout all Galilee, preaching and casting out demons.
Nítorí náà, ó ń kiri gbogbo agbègbè Galili, ó ń wàásù nínú Sinagọgu. Ó sì ń lé àwọn ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ jáde.
40 A leper came to him, begging him, kneeling down to him, and saying to him, “If you want to, you can make me clean.”
Ọkùnrin adẹ́tẹ̀ kan tọ̀ ọ́ wá, ó sì kúnlẹ̀ níwájú rẹ̀. Ó sì bẹ̀bẹ̀ fún ìmúláradá. Ó wí pé, “Bí ìwọ bá fẹ́, ìwọ lè mú mi láradá.”
41 Being moved with compassion, he stretched out his hand, and touched him, and said to him, “I want to. Be made clean.”
Jesu kún fún àánú, ó na ọwọ́ rẹ̀, ó fi ọwọ́ rẹ̀ bà a, ó wí pé, “Èmí fẹ́. Di mímọ́.”
42 When he had said this, immediately the leprosy departed from him and he was made clean.
Lójúkan náà ẹ̀tẹ̀ náà fi sílẹ̀ lọ, ọkùnrin náà sì rí ìwòsàn.
43 He strictly warned him and immediately sent him out,
Jesu sì kìlọ̀ fún un gidigidi
44 and said to him, “See that you say nothing to anybody, but go show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing the things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.”
Ó wí pé, “Lọ fi ara rẹ̀ hàn àlùfáà Júù fún àyẹ̀wò. Ṣùgbọ́n má ṣe dúró sọ ohunkóhun fún ẹnikẹ́ni ní ọ̀nà. Mú ẹ̀bùn lọ́wọ́, èyí tí Mose pàṣẹ fún adẹ́tẹ̀ tí a mú láradá. Èyí tí í ṣe ẹ̀rí pé, ó ti rí ìwòsàn.”
45 But he went out, and began to proclaim it much, and to spread about the matter, so that Jesus could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places. People came to him from everywhere.
Ṣùgbọ́n ó jáde lọ, ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í pòkìkí, ó ń tan ìròyìn kálẹ̀. Nítorí èyí, Jesu kò sì le wọ ìlú ní gbangba mọ́, ṣùgbọ́n ó wà lẹ́yìn odi ìlú ní aginjù. Síbẹ̀, àwọn ènìyàn tọ̀ ọ́ wá láti ibi gbogbo.
