< 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.
Erile a tloga mo Kaperanama a ya ntlheng ya Borwa kwa melelwaneng ya Judea le mo kgaolong ya botlhabatsatsi jwa Noka ya Jorodane. Fela jaaka gale ga bo go le matshutitshuti a batho mme a ba ruta.
2 Pharisees came to him testing him, and asked him, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?”
Bangwe ba Bafarasai ba tla kwa go ene ba mmotsa ba re, “A o letlelela tlhalo?” le fa go ntse jalo ba ne ba leka go mo lalela.
3 He answered, “What did Moses command you?”
Jesu a ba botsa a re, “Moshe o ne a reng ka ga tlhalo?”
4 They said, “Moses allowed a certificate of divorce to be written, and to divorce her.”
Ba araba ba re, “O rile e siame.” O rile, “Se se tlhokafalang ke gore monna a kwalele mosadi lokwalo lwa tlhalo.”
5 But Jesus said to them, “For your hardness of heart, he wrote you this commandment.
Jesu a ba botsa a re, “Mme o ne a buelang jalo? Ke tla lo bolelela gore ke ka ntlha yang fa a ne a bua jalo. Ke ka ntlha ya boikepo jwa bopeloethata jwa lona.
6 But from the beginning of the creation, God made them male and female.
Mme tota ga se ka fa tseleng ya Modimo, gonne e rile mo tshimologong O dirile monna le mosadi go ba kopanya go nnela ruri mo nyalong; ke gone ka moo monna o tlaa tlogelang rraagwe le mmaagwe,
7 For this cause a man will leave his father and mother, and will join to his wife,
8 and the two will become one flesh, so that they are no longer two, but one flesh.
mme ene le mosadi wa gagwe ba kopane gore ba se nne bobedi, fa e se bongwe fela.
9 What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate.”
Mme ke gone go seng ope yo o tshwanetseng go kgaoganya se Modimo o se kopantseng.”
10 In the house, his disciples asked him again about the same matter.
Ya re morago, a le nosi le barutwa ba gagwe mo tlung, ba lere kgang eo.
11 He said to them, “Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her.
Mme a ba raya a re, “Fa monna a tlhala mosadi wa gagwe a nyala o sele, o a mo akafalela.
12 If a woman herself divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery.”
Mme fa mosadi a tlhala monna wa gagwe a nyalwa gape, le ene o dira boaka.”
13 They were bringing to him little children, that he should touch them, but the disciples rebuked those who were bringing them.
E rile ka nako nngwe fa bomma-bana ba lere bana ba bone kwa go Jesu gore a ba segofatse, barutwa ba ba leleka, ba ba raya ba re ba seka ba mo tshwenya.
14 But when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation and said to them, “Allow the little children to come to me! Don’t forbid them, for God’s Kingdom belongs to such as these.
Mme e rile Jesu a bona se se diragalang o ne a seka a itumedisiwa ke barutwa ba gagwe mme a ba raya a re, “Lesang bana ba tle kwa go nna, gonne Bogosi jwa Modimo ke jwa ba ba ntseng jalo. Se ba lelekeng!
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.”
Ke lo bolelela ka tlhoafalo jaaka ke itse gore fa mongwe a gana go tla mo Modimong jaaka ngwana yo monnye ga a kitla a letlelelwa go tsena mo Bogosing jwa One.”
16 He took them in his arms and blessed them, laying his hands on them.
Hong a tsaya bana ka mabogo a gagwe a ba baya diatla a ba segofatsa.
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 eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
E rile fa a simolola go tsaya loeto, monna mongwe a tla a tabogela kwa go ene a khubama ka mangole a re, “Moruti yo o molemo, ke tshwanetse gore ke direng go tsena kwa legodimong?” (aiōnios g166)
18 Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good except one—God.
Jesu a mmotsa a re, “Ke ka ntlha yang fa o mpitsa mosiami?
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.’”
Mme mo karabong ya potso ya gago o itse ditaolo tse di reng, o seka wa bolaya, o seka wa dira boaka, o seka wa utswa, o seka wa bua maaka, o seka wa tsietsa, tlotla rrago le mmago.”
20 He said to him, “Teacher, I have observed all these things from my youth.”
Monna a araba a re, “Moruti, ga ke ise ke ko ke tlole le fa e le o le mongwe fela wa melao eo.”
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.”
Mme Jesu a ikutlwa a rata monna yo fa a mo leba, a mo raya a re, “O tlhoka selo se le sengwe fela, tsamaya o ye go rekisa dilo tsotlhe tse o nang natso mme o tseye madi o a abele bahumanegi mme o tlaa nna le khumo kwa legodimong, mme o tle o ntshale morago.”
22 But his face fell at that saying, and he went away sorrowful, for he was one who had great possessions.
Mme sefatlhogo sa monna sa sulafala, a tsamaya ka kutlobotlhoko, gonne o ne a humile thata.
23 Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter into God’s Kingdom!”
Jesu a mo lebelela a tsamaya, hong a retologa a raya barutwa ba gagwe a re, “Ga go motlhofo gore mohumi a tsene mo Bogosing jwa Modimo!”
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!
Mme mafoko a, a ba gakgamatsa. Hong Jesu a boelela mafoko a gape a re, “Bana ba ba rategang, go thata jang mo go ba ba ikantseng dikhumo go tsena mo Bogosing jwa Modimo.
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.”
Go motlhofo mo kammeleng go tsena ka leroba la nnale go na le mohumi go tsena mo Bogosing jwa Modimo.”
26 They were exceedingly astonished, saying to him, “Then who can be saved?”
Mme go ne ga nna thata, gore barutwa ba dumele mafoko ao. Hong ba botsa ba re, “Mme he, e be e le mang mo lefatsheng yo o ka bolokwang fa mohumi a sa bolokwe?”
27 Jesus, looking at them, said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God, for all things are possible with God.”
Jesu a ba tsepega matlho a re, “Kwa ntle ga Modimo go retetse. Mme mo Modimong sengwe le sengwe se a direga.”
28 Peter began to tell him, “Behold, we have left all and have followed you.”
Hong Petere a simolola go bolela kaga tsotlhe tse ene le barutwa ba bangwe ba di tlogetseng a re, “Re tlogetse sengwe le sengwe go go sala morago.”
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,
Mme Jesu a araba a re, “Mma ke go tlhomamisetse gore ga go na ope yo o tlogetseng sepe, ebong legae, bokgaitsadie, bomorwa rraagwe, mmaagwe, rraagwe, bana kgotsa dithoto tsa gagwe, ka ntlha ya go nthata le go bolelela ba bangwe kaga mafoko a me a a Molemo,
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 to come eternal life. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
yo o se kitlang a newa ga lekgolo go menagane, ebong magae, bomorwa rraagwe, bokgaitsadie, le bo mmaagwe, bana le masimo di na le dipogisego! Tse tsotlhe e tlaa nna tsa gagwe mo lefatsheng leno le mo go le le tlang o tlaa bona botshelo jo bo sa khutleng. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
31 But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”
Bontsi jwa batho ba ba bonalang e ka re ba tlhokwa jaanong jaana ba tlaa nna ba ba botlana ka nako eo, mme ba bantsi ba ba bonalang ba le ba botlana fano ba tlaa nna bagolo ka nako eo.”
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.
Mme ya re ba le mo tseleng ba ya Jerusalema, Jesu a ba eteletse pele barutwa ba gagwe ba mo setse morago ba tlelwa ke poifo. Hong Jesu a ba tseela kwa thoko, a simolola gape go ba tlhalosetsa gotlhe mo go tlaa mo diragalelang fa ba goroga kwa Jerusalema.
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.
A ba raya a re, “E tlaa re re tsena teng. Nna, Mesia ke tlaa tshwarwa ke isiwa fa pele ga baperesiti ba bagolo le bagolwane ba Bajuta ba ba tlaa nkatlholelang loso ba bo ba neele Baroma go mpolaya.
34 They will mock him, spit on him, scourge him, and kill him. On the third day he will rise again.”
Ba tlaa ntshotla, ba nkgwele mathe ba mpetse ka dithupa tsa bone; mme morago ga malatsi a mararo ke tlaa rula.”
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.”
Hong Jakobe le Johane, bomorwa Sebede, ba tla ba bua le ene ka lentswe le le kwa tlase ba re, “Morena, re batla gore o re direle ka fa re batlang ka teng.”
36 He said to them, “What do you want me to do for you?”
Mme a ba botsa a re, “Lo batla ke lo direla eng?”
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.”
Ba mo raya ba re, “Re batla go nna mo ditilong tsa bogosi re bapa nao mo bogosing jwa gago, yo mongwe ka fa letsogong la gago le legolo yo mongwe ka fa letsogong la gago la molema!”
38 But Jesus said to them, “You don’t 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?”
Mme Jesu a araba a re, “Ga lo itse se lo se lopang! A lo nonofile go nwa mo senwelong se se botlhoko sa khutsafalo se ke tshwanetseng go nwa mo go sone? Kgotsa go kolobediwa ka kolobetso ya pogisego e ke tshwanetseng go kolobediwa ka yone?”
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;
Ba mo raya ba re, “Ee, re nonofile!” Mme Jesu a re, “Lo tlaa nwa mo senwelong se ke nwang mo go sone lo bo lo kolobediwa ka kolobetso ya me e ke kolobeditsweng ka yone,
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.”
mme ga ke na thata ya go lo baya mo ditilong tsa bogosi go bapa le sa me. Ba ba tshwanetseng ba setse ba go baakanyeditswe.”
41 When the ten heard it, they began to be indignant toward James and John.
Fa ba bangwe ba barutwa ba tla go lemoga se Jakobe le Johane ba se lopileng, ba kgotswa thata.
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.
Hong Jesu a ba biletsa kwa go ene mme a re, “Lo a itse fa dikgosi le banna ba bagolo ba lefatshe ba laola batho;
43 But it shall not be so among you, but whoever wants to become great among you shall be your servant.
mme mo go lona go pharologanyo. Le fa e le mang yo o ratang go nna mogolo mo go lona o tshwanetse go nna motlhanka wa lona.
44 Whoever of you wants to become first among you shall be bondservant of all.
Mme le fa e le mang yo o ratang go ka nna mogolo mo go botlhe o tshwanetse go nna motlhanka wa botlhe.
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.”
Gonne le nna tota, Mesia, ga ke fano go tla go direlwa fa e se go thusa ba bangwe, le go ntsha botshelo jwa me gore e nne thekololo ya batho ba le bantsi.”
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.
Mme ba fitlha kwa Jeriko. Ya re morago fa ba tloga mo motseng bontsi jwa batho jo bogolo jwa ba sala morago. Hong ga diragala gore monna wa sefofu wa mokopi yo o bidiwang Baratimaio (morwa Timaio) a ba a ntse fa thoko ga tsela fa Jesu a feta.
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!”
Mme e rile fa Baratimaio a utlwa gore Jesu wa Nasaretha o gaufi a simolola go goa, a re, “Jesu Morwa Dafide, nkutlwela botlhoko!”
48 Many rebuked him, that he should be quiet, but he cried out much more, “You son of David, have mercy on me!”
Mme batho bangwe ba mo kgalemela ba re, “Didimala!” Mme a goa segolo bogolo gangwe le gape a re, “Ao! Morwa Dafide, nkutlwela botlhoko!”
49 Jesus stood still and said, “Call him.” They called the blind man, saying to him, “Cheer up! Get up. He is calling you!”
Erile Jesu a mo utlwa a ema foo mo tseleng, mme a re, “Mo reyeng lo re a tle kwano.” Hong ba bitsa monna wa sefofu. Ba re, “Heela wena yo o letlhogonolo, tla Jesu o a go bitsa.”
50 He, casting away his cloak, sprang up, and came to Jesus.
Hong Baratimaio a apola seaparo sa gagwe se segologolo a se latlhela kwa thoko, a tlola a tla kwa go Jesu.
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.”
Jesu a mmotsa a re, “O batla ke go direla eng?” Monna wa sefofu a araba a re, “Moruti, ke batla go bona.”
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.
Jesu a mo raya a re, “Gotlhe go siame, go diragetse. Tumelo ya gago e go fodisitse.” E rile gone fela foo monna wa sefofu a bona, a sala Jesu morago mo tseleng!
