< Mathayo 8 >

1 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aikũrũkire kuuma kĩrĩma-inĩ, ikundi nene cia andũ ikĩmuuma thuutha.
And when he had descended from the mountain, great crowds followed him.
2 Na mũndũ warĩ na mangũ agĩthiĩ harĩ we, agĩturia maru mbere yake, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, ũngĩenda-rĩ, no ũũtherie.”
And behold, a leper, drawing near, adored him, saying, “Lord, if you are willing, you are able to cleanse me.”
3 Nake Jesũ agĩtambũrũkia guoko gwake, akĩhutia mũndũ ũcio, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩngwenda. Therio!” O hĩndĩ ĩyo akĩhonio mangũ make.
And Jesus, extending his hand, touched him, saying: “I am willing. Be cleansed.” And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
4 Jesũ agĩcooka akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Menya ndũkeere mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ. No thiĩ ũkeyonanie kũrĩ mũthĩnjĩri-Ngai, na ũrute kĩheo kĩrĩa Musa aathanire gĩtuĩke ũira kũrĩ o.”
And Jesus said to him: “See to it that you tell no one. But go, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses instructed, as a testimony for them.”
5 Na Jesũ aarĩkia gũtoonya Kaperinaumu, mũnene-wa-thigari-igana agĩũka kũrĩ we, akĩmũhooya ũteithio.
And when he had entered into Capernaum, a centurion approached, petitioning him,
6 Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, ndungata yakwa ĩkomete mũciĩ ĩrũarĩte mũrimũ wa gũkua ciĩga na ĩrĩ na ruo rũingĩ mũno.”
and saying, “Lord, my servant lies at home paralyzed and badly tormented.”
7 Nake Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩngũthiĩ kũmĩhonia.”
And Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.”
8 No mũnene ũcio wa thigari igana akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, niĩ ndiagĩrĩire atĩ wee ũũke gwakwa. No uga o kiugo, na ndungata yakwa nĩĩkũhona.
And responding, the centurion said: “Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word, and my servant shall be healed.
9 Nĩgũkorwo niĩ mwene ndĩ mũndũ wathagwo, na ndĩ na thigari njathaga. Ndeera ũmwe ‘Thiĩ,’ nĩathiiaga, na ndeera ũngĩ atĩrĩ, ‘Ũka,’ nĩokaga. Na ningĩ ndeera ndungata yakwa atĩrĩ, ‘Ĩka ũna,’ nĩĩkaga.”
For I, too, am a man placed under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to one, ‘Go,’ and he goes, and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes, and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
10 Rĩrĩa Jesũ aiguire ũguo-rĩ, akĩgega, akĩĩra arĩa maamumĩte thuutha atĩrĩ, “Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, ndionete mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ gũkũ Isiraeli ũrĩ na wĩtĩkio mũnene ũũ.
And, hearing this, Jesus wondered. And he said to those following him: “Amen I say to you, I have not found so great a faith in Israel.
11 Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ, aingĩ nĩmagooka kuuma mwena wa irathĩro na wa ithũĩro, na nĩmagaikara iruga-inĩ hamwe na Iburahĩmu, na Isaaka, na Jakubu, ũthamaki-inĩ wa igũrũ.
For I say to you, that many shall come from the east and the west, and they shall sit at table with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.
12 No arĩa marĩ a ũthamaki ũcio nĩmagaikio nja, kũu nduma-inĩ, kũrĩa gũgaakorwo kĩrĩro na kũhagarania magego.”
But the sons of the kingdom shall be cast into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
13 Nake Jesũ agĩcooka akĩĩra mũnene ũcio wa thigari igana atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ! Nĩũgwĩkĩrwo o ũguo wĩtĩkĩtie.” Nayo ndungata yake ĩkĩhonio o ithaa rĩu.
And Jesus said to the centurion, “Go, and just as you have believed, so let it be done for you.” And the servant was healed at that very hour.
14 Rĩrĩa Jesũ aatoonyire nyũmba ya Petero, akĩona atĩ nyina wa mũtumia wa Petero aarĩ mũrũaru mũrimũ wa kũhiũha mwĩrĩ, agakoma gĩtanda-inĩ.
And when Jesus had arrived at the house of Peter, he saw his mother-in-law lying ill with a fever.
15 Akĩmũhutia guoko, nake agĩtiga kũhiũha mwĩrĩ, akĩarahũka, akĩambĩrĩria kũmũtungatĩra.
And he touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she rose up and ministered to them.
16 Hwaĩ-inĩ ũcio, andũ aingĩ arĩa maarĩ na ndaimono makĩrehwo kũrĩ we, nake akĩingata maroho macio na kuuga o kiugo, na akĩhonia arĩa othe maarĩ arũaru.
And when evening arrived, they brought to him many who had demons, and he cast out the spirits with a word. And he healed all those having maladies,
17 Ũhoro ũyũ warĩ wa kũhingia ũrĩa kwaarĩtio na kanua ka mũnabii Isaia, rĩrĩa oigire atĩrĩ: “We mwene nĩoire wonje witũ, na akĩeheria mĩrimũ iitũ.”
in order to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah, saying, “He took our infirmities, and he carried away our diseases.”
18 Rĩrĩa Jesũ oonire gĩkundi kĩa andũ arĩa maamũthiũrũrũkĩirie, agĩathana maringe mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ wa iria.
Then Jesus, seeing the great crowds encircling him, gave orders to go across the sea.
19 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũrutani ũmwe wa watho agĩũka harĩ we, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũrutani, nĩndĩkũrũmagĩrĩra kũrĩa guothe ũrĩthiiaga.”
And one scribe, approaching, said to him, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you will go.”
20 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mbwe nĩ irĩ marima, na nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ nĩ irĩ itara, no Mũrũ wa Mũndũ ndarĩ handũ angĩigĩrĩra mũtwe wake.”
And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have dens, and the birds of the air have nests, but the Son of man has nowhere to rest his head.”
21 Nake mũrutwo ũngĩ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, reke nyambe thiĩ ngathike baba.”
Then another of his disciples said to him, “Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father.”
22 Nowe Jesũ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nũmĩrĩra, na ũreke arĩa akuũ mathike akuũ ao ene.”
But Jesus said to him, “Follow me, and allow the dead to bury their dead.”
23 Hĩndĩ ĩyo agĩtoonya gatarũ, nao arutwo ake makĩmũrũmĩrĩra.
And climbing into a boat, his disciples followed him.
24 Na rĩrĩ, gũkĩgĩa kĩhuhũkanio kĩnene gĩteerĩgĩrĩirwo kũu iria-inĩ, gĩgĩtũma gatarũ kende kũhubwo nĩ makũmbĩ ma maaĩ. No Jesũ aarĩ toro.
And behold, a great tempest occurred in the sea, so much so that the boat was covered with waves; yet truly, he was sleeping.
25 Nao arutwo magĩthiĩ, makĩmũũkĩria, makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mwathani, tũhonokie! Nĩtũkũũrĩra maaĩ-inĩ!”
And his disciples drew near to him, and they awakened him, saying: “Lord, save us, we are perishing.”
26 Nake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ mũrĩ a wĩtĩkio mũnini, nĩ kĩĩ gĩgũtũma mwĩtigĩre ũguo?” Thuutha ũcio agĩũkĩra, agĩkũũma rũhuho na makũmbĩ macio, nakuo gũkĩhoorera biũ.
And Jesus said to them, “Why are you afraid, O little in faith?” Then rising up, he commanded the winds, and the sea. And a great tranquility occurred.
27 Andũ acio makĩgega, makĩũria atĩrĩ, “Kaĩ mũndũ ũyũ akĩrĩ ũ atĩ o na rũhuho na makũmbĩ ma maaĩ nĩimwathĩkagĩra?”
Moreover, the men wondered, saying: “What kind of man is this? For even the winds and the sea obey him.”
28 Rĩrĩa aakinyire rũgongo rwa bũrũri wa Agadari-rĩ, agĩtũngwo nĩ andũ eerĩ maarĩ na ndaimono, moimĩte mbĩrĩra-inĩ. Maarĩ na ũũru mũingĩ mũno, atĩ gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩagerire njĩra ĩyo.
And when he had arrived across the sea, into the region of the Gerasenes, he was met by two who had demons, who were so exceedingly savage, as they went out from among the tombs, that no one was able to cross by that way.
29 Nao makĩanĩrĩra, makĩũria atĩrĩ, “Ũrenda atĩa na ithuĩ, wee Mũrũ wa Ngai. Woka gũkũ gũtũnyariira ihinda rĩrĩa rĩamũre rĩtanakinya?”
And behold, they cried out, saying: “What are we to you, O Jesus, the Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?”
30 Nĩ haarĩ na rũũru rũnene rwa ngũrwe rwarĩithagio handũ hataarĩ haraaya na hau maarĩ.
Now there was, not far from them, a herd of many swine feeding.
31 Nacio ndaimono igĩthaitha Jesũ, ikĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Akorwo nĩũgũtũingata-rĩ, tũtũme kũrĩ rũũru rũũrĩa rwa ngũrwe.”
Then the demons petitioned him, saying: “If you cast us from here, send us into the herd of swine.”
32 Nake agĩciĩra atĩrĩ, “Thiĩi!” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ikiuma, igĩtoonya ngũrwe, naruo rũũru ruothe rũgĩikũrũka kĩharũrũka-inĩ na ihenya, rũkĩgũa iria thĩinĩ, rũgĩkuĩra maaĩ-inĩ.
And he said to them, “Go.” And they, going out, went into the swine. And behold, the entire herd suddenly rushed along a steep place into the sea. And they died in the waters.
33 Arĩa maarĩithagia ngũrwe icio makĩũra, magĩthiĩ itũũra-inĩ, makĩheana maũndũ macio mothe o na ũrĩa gwekĩkĩte kũrĩ andũ arĩa maarĩ na ndaimono.
Then the shepherds fled, and arriving in the city, they reported on all this, and on those who had had the demons.
34 Hĩndĩ ĩyo itũũra rĩothe rĩkiumagara rĩgatũnge Jesũ. Na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa maamuonire, makĩmũthaitha oime rũgongo rwao.
And behold, the entire city went out to meet Jesus. And having seen him, they petitioned him, so that he would cross from their borders.
