Markos 4
1 Guero berriz has cedin iracasten itsas bazterrean: eta bil cedin harengana gendetze handi, hala non bera vncira sarthuric, iarriric baitzegoen itsassoan: eta populu gucia itsas costan leihorrean cen.
Once again Jesus began to teach beside the sea, and such a large crowd gathered around Him that He got into a boat and sat in it, while all the people crowded along the shore.
2 Eta iracasten cerauen comparationez anhitz gauça, eta erraiten cerauen bere doctrinán,
And He taught them many things in parables, and in His teaching He said,
3 Ençun eçaçue, Huná, ereillebat ilki cedin ereitara.
“Listen! A farmer went out to sow his seed.
4 Eta guertha cedin ereitean, partebat eror baitzedin bide bazterrera, eta ethor citecen ceruco choriac, eta irets ceçaten hura.
And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.
5 Eta berce partebat eror cedin leku harriçuetara, non ezpaitzuen lur anhitzic: eta bertan ilki cedin, ceren ezpaitzuen lur barnetassunic.
Some fell on rocky ground, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly because the soil was shallow.
6 Baina iguzquia goratu cenean, erre cedin: eta ceren erroric ezpaitzuen, eyhar cedin.
But when the sun rose, the seedlings were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.
7 Eta berce partebat eror cedin elhorri artera, eta elhorriac handi citecen, eta itho ceçaten hura, eta etzeçan fructuric eman.
Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the seedlings, and they yielded no crop.
8 Eta bercea eror cedin lur-onera, eta eman ceçan fructu goratzen eta handitzen cenic, eta ekar ceçan bihi batac hoguey eta hamar, eta berceac hiruroguey, eta berceac ehun.
Still other seed fell on good soil, where it sprouted, grew up, and produced a crop—one bearing thirtyfold, another sixtyfold, and another a hundredfold.”
9 Orduan erran ciecén, Ençuteco beharriric duenac, ençun beça.
Then Jesus said, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
10 Eta bera cela, interroga ceçaten haren inguruän hamabiequin ciradenéc, comparationeaz.
As soon as Jesus was alone with the Twelve and those around Him, they asked Him about the parable.
11 Eta erran ciecén, Çuey eman çaiçue Iaincoaren resumaco secretuaren eçagutzea: baina lekorean diradeney comparationez gauça guciac tractatzen çaizte:
He replied, “The mystery of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to those on the outside everything is expressed in parables,
12 Dacussatela ikus deçatençat, eta eztaquizquión ohart: eta dançutela ençun deçaten, eta adi ezteçaten: conuerti eztitecen eta bekatuac barka ez taquizquién.
so that, ‘they may be ever seeing but never perceiving, and ever hearing but never understanding; otherwise they might turn and be forgiven.’”
13 Eta erran ciecen, Eztaquiçue comparatione haur? Eta nolatan comparatione guciac eçagutiren dituçue?
Then Jesus said to them, “Do you not understand this parable? Then how will you understand any of the parables?
14 Ereilleac hitza ereiten du.
The farmer sows the word.
15 Bada hauc dirade bide bazterrera hacia recebitzen dutenac, ceinétan ereiten baita hitza: baina ençun dutenean, bertan ethorten da Satan, eta kencen du hayen bihotzetan erein cen hitza.
Some are like the seeds along the path, where the word is sown. As soon as they hear it, Satan comes and takes away the word that was sown in them.
16 Eta hauc dirade halaber leku harriçuetara hacia recebitzen dutenac: eta ençun dutenean hitza, bertan bozcariorequin recebitzen dute hura.
Some are like the seeds sown on rocky ground. They hear the word and at once receive it with joy.
17 Eta eztute erroric berac baithan, baina iraute gutitaco dirade: guero heltzen denean tribulationeric edo persecutioneric hitzagatic, bertan scandalizatzen dirade.
But they themselves have no root, and they remain for only a season. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, they quickly fall away.
18 Eta hauc dirade elhorri artera hacia recebitzen dutenac, hauc dirade, diot, hacia ençuten dutenac:
Others are like the seeds sown among the thorns. They hear the word,
19 Baina mundu hunetaco ansiéc, eta abrastassunezco enganioac, eta berce gaucetaco guthiciéc barneraric ithotzen dute hitza, eta fructu gabetzen da. (aiōn g165)
but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth, and the desire for other things come in and choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
20 Eta hauc dirade lur onera hacia recebitu dutenac, ceinéc hitza ençuten baitute, eta recebitzen, eta fructu ekarten, batac hoguey eta hamar, eta berceac hiruroguey, eta berceac ehun.
Still others are like the seeds sown on good soil. They hear the word, receive it, and produce a crop—thirtyfold, sixtyfold, or a hundredfold.”
21 Erran ciecén halaber, Ala candela ekarten da gaitzurupean, edo ohapean eçar dadinçat? eza candelerean eçar dadinçat?
Jesus also said to them, “Does anyone bring in a lamp to put it under a basket or under a bed? Doesn’t he set it on a stand?
22 Ecen ezta deus secreturic aguerturen eztenic, edo estal ahal daitenic: baina campora ethorri behar da.
For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be brought to light.
23 Baldin nehorc ençuteco beharriric badu, ençun beça.
If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear.”
24 Guehiago erran ciecén, Gogoauçue cer ençuten duçuen: cer neurriz neurturen baituçue, neurturen çaiçue, eta emendaturen çaiçue, çuey ençuten duçuenoy.
He went on to say, “Pay attention to what you hear. With the measure you use, it will be measured to you, and even more will be added to you.
25 Ecen duenari, emanen çayó: eta deusic eztuenari, duena-ere edequiren çayó.
For whoever has will be given more. But whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.”
26 Guehiago erraiten çuen, Iaincoaren resumá da, guiçón hacia lurrera egotziric gau eta egun lo etzaten eta iaiquiten liçaten baten ançora.
Jesus also said, “The kingdom of God is like a man who scatters seed on the ground.
27 Eta hacia ilkiten eta hatzen licén, harc ezlaquiala nola,
Night and day he sleeps and wakes, and the seed sprouts and grows, though he knows not how.
28 Ecen bere buruz lurrac fructu ekarten du, behin belhar, guero buru, guero ogui bihi bethea buruän.
All by itself the earth produces a crop—first the stalk, then the head, then grain that ripens within.
29 Eta aguertu denean fructua, bertan guiçonac du eçarten iguiteyá: ceren prest baita vztá.
And as soon as the grain is ripe, he swings the sickle, because the harvest has come.”
30 Guero cioen, Cer irudi duela erranen dugu Iaincoaren resumác? edo cer comparationez comparaturen dugu hura?
Then He asked, “To what can we compare the kingdom of God? With what parable shall we present it?
31 Hura da mustarda haci bihibat beçala, cein lurrean ereiten denean, baita lurrean diraden haci gucietaco chipiena:
It is like a mustard seed, which is the smallest of all seeds sown upon the earth.
32 Baina erein den ondoan, goratzen da, eta berce belhar gucietaco handiena eguiten da: eta adar handiac eguiten ditu hala non ceruco choriec ohatzeac eguin ahal baititzaqueizte haren itzalean.
But after it is planted, it grows to be the largest of all garden plants and puts forth great branches, so that the birds of the air nest in its shade.”
33 Eta anhitz hunelaco comparationez tractatzen cerauen hitza, ençun ahal ciroitenaren araura.
With many such parables Jesus spoke the word to them, to the extent that they could understand.
34 Eta comparatione gabe etzayen minçatzen: baina appartean bere discipuluey declaratzen cerauzten gauça guciac.
He did not tell them anything without using a parable. But privately He explained everything to His own disciples.
35 Eta erran ciecén egun hartan, arrastu cenean, Iragan gáitecen vraren berce aldera.
When that evening came, He said to His disciples, “Let us cross to the other side.”
36 Eta populua vtziric har ceçaten hura vncian cen beçala: baina berce vncitchoac-ere baciraden harequin.
After they had dismissed the crowd, they took Jesus with them, since He was already in the boat. And there were other boats with Him.
37 Orduan altcha cedin haice buhumba handibat, eta bagác sartzen ciraden vncira, hala non ia bethatzen baitzén.
Soon a violent windstorm came up, and the waves were breaking over the boat, so that it was being swamped.
38 Eta hura vnciaren guibeleco aldean cetzan lo bururdi baten gainean: orduan iratzartzen dute, eta diotsate, Magistruá, eztuc ansiaric ceren galduac goacen?
But Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on the cushion. So they woke Him and said, “Teacher, don’t You care that we are perishing?”
39 Eta iratzarri cenean mehatcha ceçan haicea, eta erran cieçón itsassoari, Ichil adi, eta gueldi adi. Orduan cessa cedin haicea, eta tranquilitate handi eguin cedin.
Then Jesus got up and rebuked the wind and the sea. “Silence!” He commanded. “Be still!” And the wind died down, and it was perfectly calm.
40 Eta erran ciecén Cergatic çarete horrela icior? nola eztuçue federic?
“Why are you so afraid?” He asked. “Do you still have no faith?”
41 Eta ici citecen icidura handiz: eta erraiten çuten elkarren artean, Baina nor da haur, haiceac eta itsassoac, ere obeditzen baitute?
Overwhelmed with fear, they asked one another, “Who is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?”
