Markos 4
1 Tutung acizina udursuzu nani nbiu kuli. igozi nanit gbardang kilinghe, apira nan nya zirgin nmyen acha-chana udu nan nya kule, aso nan nye. Vat ligonzighe wa di mbiu kule.
And again he began to teach by the side of the sea. And great multitudes were assembled about him; so that he embarked and sat in a ship on the sea, and all the multitude stood on the land by the side of the sea.
2 A dursuzo nani imon gbardang nin tinan tigoldo, nan nya dursuzoe, a woro nani:
And he taught them much by similitudes. And in his teaching, he said:
3 Lanzan unan tibila wa nusu udu tibila.
Hear ye: Behold a sower went forth to sow.
4 Adi tibile, imong imus disso libau, aying da zoto ining.
And as he sowed, some seed fell on the side of the path; and a bird came, and devoured it.
5 Imong imus disso kupanbaran, bara usalin nmyin, imuse nuzu deidei, bara na nmyine wa di tendeleng.
And other seed fell on a rock, so that it had not much earth; and it soon shot up, because it had no depth of earth.
6 Kube na uwui wa ghana, bara na nmyine wadi tendeleng kutyiene pya itunna ikoto.
But when the sun was up, it wilted; and because it had no root, it dried up.
7 Imon imus disso nan nya nimart. Na imarte kuno itunna iparda ining na ita iyip ba.
And other seed fell among thorns. And the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruits.
8 Imon iyip disso kutyen kucine ikunjo ini yatina ita kpasharak. ining macha ita iyoli, imon akut atat, imon akut kutocin, imon akalt-akalt ikata intibile.”
And other seed fell on good ground, and came up, and grew, and yielded fruits; some thirty, some sixty, and some a hundred.
9 Aworo “Ulenge na adinin natuf in lanze na alanza.”
And he said: Whoever hath ears to hear, let him hear.
10 Kube na Yisa wa di usamme, ale na iwa di susut ligowe nighe nin nono katwa me likure nin nan waba itiringhe tigoldo tone.
And when they were by themselves, those with him, together with the twelve, asked him concerning this similitude.
11 A woro nani, “Anunghere ina ni minu uyiru nimon ilenvge na iyeshin kipin tigo Kutellẹ. Inung ale na idin das ko iyeme imon mine se nin tinnan tigoldo,
And Jesus said to them: To you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to them without, all is in similitudes:
12 Bara uyenje, eh ba yenju, vat nani iba yenu ba, bara ulanzu, eh ba lanzu, vat nani na iba yinnu ba, bara iwa kpilin kiti Kutellẹ akusu nani.”
that when they see, they may see and not see, and when they hear, they may hear and not understand; lest they should be converted, and their sins be forgiven them.
13 Aworo, “Na anung nyinno ko kugolde ba? Ibati iyiziari iyinin kagisin tigolde?
And he said to them: Do ye not understand this similitude? And how will ye understand all similitudes?
14 Unan tibile wa bilsu uliru Kutellẹ.
The sower that sowed, sowed the word.
15 Imus ilenge na iwa dissu libau, inughere alenge na iwa lanza uliru Kutellẹ itunna isere deidei, asa Shetan nnin da nin kujijing me abolo ulire nan nya nibinayi mine.
And those by the side of the path, are they in whom the word is sown; and as soon as they have heard it, Satan cometh, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.
16 Inughere ilenge na iwa dissu kitene kupanbara, inughe wa lanza uliru Kutellẹ asa itunna isere unin deidei nin nayi-abo;
And those sown on the rock, are they who, when they hear the word, immediately with joy receive it.
17 Na iwa di nin tiling liyisin nin nakara ba, asa itere ayi nin kabiri båt; na licin nin niu nda bara ulire itunna isarta ideo.
And they have no root in them, but are temporary; and when there is affliction or persecution on account of the word, they are quickly stumbled.
18 Imong ilenge na iwa bilsu nan nya nimart. Inneghare wa lanza ulire.
And those sown among thorns, are they that hear the word,
19 nin nanere adadun inyi, nin tok kagisin nimon in yï, nin lanzu mmang parda ulire, itunna iso hem. (aiōn g165)
and the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the residue of other lusts enter in and choke the word, and it is without fruits. (aiōn g165)
20 Ilenge na iwa bilsu kutein kucine, inneghare ilenge na iwa lanza uliru Kutellẹ isere nin liwui lirum imaca gbardang, imong akut atat, imong akut kutocin imon akalt akalt ikata intibile.
And those sown on good ground are they that hear the word, and receive it, and bear fruits, by thirties, and by sixties, and by hundreds.
21 Yisa woro nani, “uwa ti ula inpitilla asa ucheu unin nan nya kukuzughare sa nan nya lii. komi? Asa utarda unin in tadangha.
And he said to them: Is a lamp brought to be placed under a bushel, or under a bed? Is it not to be placed on a light-stand?
22 Na imoimon yeshin ilenge na iwaghya idira upune ba, sa imoimon nan nya sirti na iba diru unutune ikanang ba.
For there is nothing hid, which will not be exposed; and nothing concealed, which will not be made manifest.
23 Ulenge na adinin natuf nlanze, na alanza.
If any one have ears to hear, let him hear.
24 Aworo nani, “Dinan atuf nimon ile na idin lanzu, kuyangi ko na uguro mun, kunnare iba guru fi mun ukuru use gbardang wang.
And he said to them: Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye measure, it shall be measured to you: and there shall more be given to you who hear.
25 Bara vat nle na adinin nimon iba kpinghe ku, ulenge na asalimun, kitime ima seru ilenge na adimun wang.”
For to him that hath, will more be given; and from him that hath not, even what he hath, will be taken from him.
26 Yisa woro, “Kipin Tigö Kutellẹ masin fo unitari na awa bilsu imus kutein.
And he said: So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground,
27 Asa a nö nmoro afita kitik nin liring, imuse nuzu ikuno ame löng, na asa yiro nin tikunnanghe ba.
and should sleep and rise, by night and by day, and the seed should grow an shoot up, he knoweth not how.
28 Kutyiene asa kunutno imus nin litime ita ticilak, itunna nabaga, inin kunjo ida nutuno ati inin ta iyip.
For the earth bringeth forth the fruit; first the plant, and subsequently the ear, and at last the complete wheat in the ear.
29 Kubi ko na ilewe inyini, ata mass ayira kuwatan a basa bara na kubin basu. “
And when the fruit is ripe, immediately cometh the sickle, because the harvest hath arrived.
30 Aworo, “iyapin imonari iba batu kipin tigoh Kutellẹ mun nin, tutung tiyapin tigoldori iba batizu mun?
And he said: To what shall we liken the kingdom of God? and with what similitude shall we compare it?
31 Timasin fo fiyip kukù, na iwa bilsu fi katin ko fiyapin fiyip nin cingiling na asa ibila kuttyien.
It is like a grain of mustard seed which, when it is sown in the earth, is the least of all seeds sown on the earth;
32 Vat iwa bilu fining nani fi nuzu, asa fi kuno, fita kucha ku dyå fi kata acha vat nan nya kunene. Asa kuta tilang jakaka kang na agyin kitene kani wang asa ida ke tido mine nan nya nshine.”
and when it is sown it springeth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and produceth great branches, so that birds can lodge under its shadow.
33 Nin tinan tigoldo gbardang nafo tone a bele nani uliru Kutellẹ, udu ligang longo na yiru ulanze.
And by many such similitudes, similitudes such as they could hear, Jesus discoursed with the people.
34 Nin nani na awa sunani uliru sa tinang tigoldo ba. Nin nani ame ligowe nin nono katwa mere cas asa apuno nani ncasarak nlire.
And without similitudes he did not converse with them: but to his disciples, between himself and them, he explained every thing.
35 Lilole nin kuleleng aworo nani, channari ti kafi uleli uwule.”
And he said to them, the same day at evening: Let us pass over to the other side.
36 Itunna igya isuna ligozinghe. Nono katwa me gya ligowe naghe nan nya zirgin nmyen, bara asosin nan nya ligowe nanghinu. Ntong tizirgin nmyen wang ligowe waduku.
And they sent away the multitudes: and they conducted him in the ship as he was. And there were also with him other little ships.
37 Fiyilili nin funu udya tunna ufita nan nya kurawẹ, tikara nmyen tunnan pichu nan nya zirge utunna ulentina ukulu nin nmyen.
And there was a great tempest and wind: and the waves beat upon the ship, and it was near being filled.
38 Ame Yisa wana din nmoro nan nya kadasi nzirge. Itunna ifyghe inin din sughe nenge, “Unan dursuzu nanit, tiba ku nan nya zirgi ulele afe nmora?”
And Jesus was asleep on a pillow in the hinder part of the ship. And they came and awoke him, and said to him: Our Rabbi, carest thou not, that we perish?
39 Na azinto, a kpada ufune, anin woro kurawe, ta shew, yisina tik.” Ufune tunna u kete, kurawe tunna kusina dang.
And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea: Cease; be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
40 Aworo nani nenge, “Bara iyaghari tå inani lanza fiu? Na iduu nin yinnu sa uyenu mine.”
And he said to them: Why were ye so fearful? and why have ye not faith?
41 Fiu fidya wa kifo nani iworo nati mine, “imusin yapin unitari ulele di, na ufunu nin kurawa wang din dortu uliru me?”
And they feared with great fear: and they said, one to another: Who is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!
