Markos 7
1 A farisawa so kiti kirum ligowe na Yisa, nan nadidye nyiru niyerte na iwa dak unuzun Urushalima.
Then the Pharisees, with certain Scribes who had come from Jerusalem, came to Him in a body.
2 Ba iyene among nan nya nono katwa me ili nimonli nin dinong nachara mine, wati na iwa kusu achara ba.
They had noticed that some of His disciples were eating their food with 'unclean' (that is to say, unwashed) hands.
3 (Bara na inung a Farisawa nan na Yahudawa vat, na idin li imonli ba se ikusu achara lau; na idin su avu nin kani kite ba, bara iwa seru nani kiti nakune minerẹ.
(For the Pharisees and all the Jews--being, as they are, zealous for the traditions of the Elders--never eat without first carefully washing their hands,
4 Andi a Farisawa nsa unuzun kasau, na asa ileo imonli ba se isulsuna. Tutung ti duka di nani ku gbardang to na idin dorte nin likara, nafo ukuzu tikop, ameleng, asu-nishik, umunu kitin lisosin linimolẹ wang.)
and when they come from market they will not eat without bathing first; and they have a good many other customs which they have received traditionally and cling to, such as the rinsing of cups and pots and of bronze utensils, and the washing of beds.)
5 A Farisawa nan nadidyan yiru niyertẹ tirino Yisa ku, ''Iyaghari ta na nono katwa fe din dortu ugadu nakune ba, bara na idin li nimonli mine sa ukusu nachara?
So the Pharisees and Scribes put the question to Him: "Why do your disciples transgress the traditions of the Elders, and eat their food with unclean hands?"
6 A woro nani, ''Ishaya unan liru nin nu Kutellẹ wa yertin gai kitene kinu ndortu liru Kutellẹ na idin su, 'Anit alele din sue liru nin na kpa tinu minere, a nibinayi mine yita piit ninmi.
"Rightly did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites," He replied; "as it is written, "'This People honour Me with their lips, while their hearts are far away from Me:
7 U dortu mine kuholari su unin, idin dursuzu tiduka nanitari, na un Kutellẹ ba.
But idle is their devotion while they lay down precepts which are mere human rules.'
8 Ina filin uduka Kutellẹ i nanin na kifo adadun ngadu nanit asirne.''
"You neglect God's Commandment: you hold fast to men's traditions."
9 A woro, i lanza nmang infillu duka Kutellẹ inan yinnọ udortu gadu!
"Praiseworthy indeed!" He added, "to set at nought God's Commandment in order to observe your own traditions!
10 Unnare Musa wa woro, na uchif fe nin nafighe ngogong, tutung urika na adin su uliru unanzang ayasa uchif nin nna, aba ku gbas.'
For Moses said, 'Honour thy father and thy mother' and again, 'He who curses father or mother, let him die the death.'
11 Anughe kuru iworo, ''Asa unit belle uchif me sa aname, vat ubunu urika na usere kiti nin kobaghari,'' (wati nworu, 'imon nni Kutlellẹri) -
But you say, 'If a man says to his father or mother, It is a Korban (that is, a thing devoted to God), whatever it is, which otherwise you would have received from me--'
12 na asa iyinna asu uchifi me sa uname katwa ba.
And so you no longer allow him to do anything for his father or mother,
13 Idin tizu uduka Kutellẹ shogo-shogo bara udortu timin ti duka idimun. Nan nimon gbardan irika na idin sue.''
thus nullifying God's precept by your tradition which you have handed down. And many things of that kind you do."
14 Ayichila ligozin nanite aworo ani, ''Lanzanni, vat mine, ikuru iyinin.
Then Jesus called the people to Him again. "Listen to me, all of you," He said, "and understand.
15 Na imon nnuzun dasari irika na idin pichu nan nya kidowong nit din nanzughe ba. Imon irika na idin nuchu nan nya nutere din nanzughe.
There is nothing outside a man which entering him can make him unclean; but it is the things which come out of a man that make him unclean."
16 Vat urika na adinin natuf nlanzun liru na alanza.''
17 Nene kube na Yisa wa chin ligozin nanite a pira kilari, anan katwa me tiringhe tigoldo tone. Yisa woro,
After He had left the crowd and gone indoors, His disciples began to ask Him about this figure of speech.
18 ''Anung wang dunani sa uyinnue? Na anung yene nwo vat nimon ile na ipira unit unuzun ndas na inare din nanzughe ba,
"Have you also so little understanding?" He replied; "do you not understand that anything whatever that enters a man from outside cannot make him unclean,
19 bara na iwaya ipira nan nya kibinayi ba, asa ipira nan nya liburu me, idi tolu itunna idi nuzu kitin tin das (npunju).''
because it does not go into his heart, but into his stomach, and passes away ejected from him?" By these words Jesus pronounced all kinds of food clean.
20 A woro, “Imon irika na idin nuchu daga nanya nit usurneri din nanzughe.
"What comes out of a man," He added, "that it is which makes him unclean.
21 Bara nan nya kibinayin nit usurneri, makpilizu-kpilizun magunta din nuchu ku, unozu nin nin nawani sa nalililme, likiri, umolsu nanit,
For from within, out of men's hearts, their evil purposes proceed--fornication, theft, murder, adultery,
22 unozu nin wani nilugma sa gakilime nilugma, kunannizi, umagunta, usali kidegen, usu nlazun mang, tinanayi nin linbu nmong, ufiu liti, tilalang.
covetousness, wickedness, deceit, licentiousness, envy, reviling, pride, reckless folly:
23 Vat nimon magunta ilele din nuchu nan nya liburin nitari, inare din nanzu unit.
all these wicked things come out from within and make a man unclean."
24 A fita kikane a gya udu kusarin Sur nin Sidon. A pira nkan kilari bara na awa dinin su umun yinin aduka ba, bara nani na awa yenshin ba.
Then He rose and left that place and went into the neighbourhood of Tyre and Sidon. Here He entered a house and wished no one to know it, but He could not escape observation.
25 Na nin dandaunu umong uwani na kashune wadi nin nagbergenu uwani une lanza ubeleng Yisa adah ada deu na bunun me.
Forthwith a woman whose little daughter was possessed by a foul spirit heard of Him, and came and flung herself at His feet.
26 Uwani une ushono hẹllen iyawa ri unuzu surofinikiya, a fuu ye acara anutun agbergene nanyan shune me.
She was a Gentile woman, a Syro-phoenician by nation: and again and again she begged Him to expel the demon from her daughter.
"Let the children first eat all they want," He said; "it is not right to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs."
28 Iwa kifo munu idomun kiti nagoh, na iwah fya ayi mine kifene nile imon na iba bellu ba. Ka na iba bellu nkoni kube amon nanyan nkoni kube, ille imon na iba bellu ima nie munu; na nughere masu ulire ba, nfip Kutellẹari. Gwana banii gwana me imollu, uchif nin gono me. Nono ba fiu nibineyi nachif mine bara imolsu nanin. Anit vat ba naari munu bara lissanni. Amma ule na a ba tere, kibinai me aba se ulai.
"True, Sir," she replied, "and yet the dogs under the table eat the children's scraps."
29 A woro, “Bara na ubenle nani, can fi. Ku gbergene in nuzu nanyan nshono fe.”
"For those words of yours, go home," He replied; "the demon has gone out of your daughter."
30 Uwane kpilla Kilari adi se gone nọn kitenen nkomi, kugbergene nuzu.
So she went home, and found the child lying on the bed, and the demon gone.
31 Tutung anuzu kusarin Tyre, akatan Sida udak kurawan Galili, vat udu Kusarin Dikafoli.
Returning from the neighbourhood of Tyre, He came by way of Sidon to the Lake of Galilee, passing through the district of the Ten Towns.
32 I daghe nin mon unan nituri, unan sali nbellun liru gegeme, ifoghe acara a tarda kuture acara ulau me.
Here they brought to Him a deaf man that stammered, on whom they begged Him to lay His hands.
33 A nuzu ninghe nanya ligozin nanite udu kusari kurum a dudo atufe nin ticin me, atufuno attaf, a dudo lilem me.
So Jesus taking him aside, apart from the crowd, put His fingers into his ears, and spat, and moistened his tongue;
34 A ghantina izi kitene kani, aceu kibinai a woronghe, “ifafattha,” nworo, “puno”
and looking up to Heaven He sighed, and said to him, "Ephphatha!" (that is, "Open!")
35 Na nin dodonu ba atufemme puno alanza, ikala ile imong na kese lilem me atuna nliru gegeme.
And the man's ears were opened, and his tongue became untied, and he began to speak perfectly.
36 A wuno nani atuf na iwa belin umonba. Illeu ubun mbellu nimong na a kpada nani na iwa belin ba.
Then Jesus charged them to tell no one; but the more He charged them, all the more did they spread the news far and wide.
37 I su umamaki kang, nin nille imong na iyene, ibelle, “A su kanta gegeme. Atah kuturi alanza unan saling bellu nliru lirina.”
The amazement was extreme. "He succeeds in everything he attempts," they exclaimed; "he even makes deaf men hear and dumb men speak!"
