< Mark 1 >

1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;
Ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ ìyìnrere nípa Jesu Kristi, Ọmọ Ọlọ́run.
2 as it is written in Isaiah the prophet: Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way.
Gẹ́gẹ́ bí a ti kọ ọ́ nínú ìwé wòlíì Isaiah pé, “Èmi yóò ran oníṣẹ́ mi síwájú rẹ, Ẹni tí yóò tún ọ̀nà rẹ ṣe.”
3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make ready the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
“Ohùn ẹni tí ń kígbe ní ijù, ‘Ẹ tún ọ̀nà Olúwa ṣe, ẹ ṣe ojú ọ̀nà rẹ̀ kí ó tọ́.’”
4 John was immersing in the wilderness, and preaching the immersion of repentance in order to the remission of sins.
Johanu dé, ẹni tí ó ń tẹnibọmi ní aginjù, tí ó sì ń wàásù ìtẹ̀bọmi ìrònúpìwàdà fún ìdáríjì ẹ̀ṣẹ̀.
5 And all the country of Judea and the inhabitants of Jerusalem went out to him, and were all immersed by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
Gbogbo àwọn tí ń gbé ní agbègbè Judea, àti gbogbo ènìyàn Jerusalẹmu jáde tọ̀ ọ́ lọ, a sì ti ọwọ́ rẹ̀ tẹ gbogbo wọn bọ omi ni odò Jordani, wọ́n ń jẹ́wọ́ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn.
6 And John was clothed with camel’s hair, and had a girdle of leather around his loins, and he ate locusts and wild honey:
Johanu sì wọ aṣọ irun ìbákasẹ. Ó sì di àmùrè awọ mọ́ ẹ̀gbẹ́ rẹ̀. Eṣú àti oyin ìgàn sì ni oúnjẹ rẹ̀.
7 and he preached, saying: There comes after me One mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loose.
Ó sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í wàásù wí pé, “Ẹnìkan tí ó tóbi jù mí lọ ń bọ̀ lẹ́yìn mi, okùn bàtà ẹsẹ̀ ẹni tí èmi kò tó ẹni tí ń tú.
8 I immerse you in water; but he will immerse you in the Holy Spirit.
Èmi ń fi omi ṣe ìtẹ̀bọmi yín, ṣùgbọ́n Òun yóò fi Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ ṣe ìtẹ̀bọmi yín.”
9 And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was immersed by John in the Jordan.
Ó sì ṣe ní ọjọ́ kan Jesu ti Nasareti ti Galili jáde wá, a sì ti ọwọ́ Johanu ṣe ìtẹ̀bọmi fún ní odò Jordani.
10 And immediately on coming up from the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him.
Lẹ́sẹ̀kẹsẹ̀ tí Jesu ń ti inú omi jáde wá, ó rí ọ̀run tí ó ṣí sílẹ̀, Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ bí àdàbà sọ̀kalẹ̀ lé e lórí.
11 And there was a voice from the heavens: Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I delight.
Ohùn kan sì ti ọ̀run wá wí pé, “Ìwọ ni àyànfẹ́ Ọmọ mi, ẹni tí inú mi dùn sí gidigidi.”
12 And immediately the Spirit compelled him to go forth into the wilderness.
Lẹ́sẹ̀kan náà, Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ sì darí Jesu sí ijù,
13 And he was there in the wilderness forty days, to be tempted by Satan; and he was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered to him.
Ó sì wà ní ogójì ọjọ́ ní aginjù. A sì ti ọwọ́ Satani dán an wò, ó sì wà pẹ̀lú àwọn ẹranko ìgbẹ́. Àwọn angẹli sì ń ṣe ìránṣẹ́ fún un.
14 But after John was delivered up, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,
Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ọba Herodu ti fi Johanu sínú ẹ̀wọ̀n tan, Jesu lọ sí Galili, ó ń wàásù ìyìnrere ti ìjọba Ọlọ́run.
15 and saying: The time has fully come, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent, and believe the gospel.
Ó sì kéde wí pé, “Àkókò náà dé wàyí, ìjọba Ọlọ́run kù sí dẹ̀dẹ̀. Ẹ yípadà kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ yín, kí ẹ sì gba ìyìnrere yìí gbọ́.”
16 And as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew the brother of Simon, throwing a net about in the sea; for they were fishers.
Ní ọjọ́ kan, bí Jesu ti ń rìn létí Òkun Galili, Ó rí Simoni àti Anderu arákùnrin rẹ̀, wọ́n ń fi àwọ̀n wọn pẹja torí pé apẹja ni wọ́n.
17 And Jesus said to them: Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.
Jesu sì ké sí wọn wí pé, “Ẹ máa tọ̀ mí lẹ́yìn. Èmi yóò sì sọ yín di apẹja ènìyàn.”
18 And immediately they left their nets, and followed him.
Ní kánkán wọ́n fi àwọ̀n wọn sílẹ̀, wọ́n sì tọ̀ Ọ́ lẹ́yìn.
19 And when he had gone a little further thence, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the ship, mending their nets.
Bí Ó sì ti rìn síwájú díẹ̀, ní etí Òkun, Ó rí Jakọbu ọmọ Sebede àti Johanu arákùnrin rẹ̀ nínú ọkọ̀, wọ́n ń tún àwọ̀n wọn ṣe.
20 And he immediately called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants, and went after him.
Ó sì ké sí àwọn náà lẹ́sẹ̀kẹsẹ̀, wọ́n fi Sebede baba wọn sílẹ̀ nínú ọkọ̀ pẹ̀lú àwọn alágbàṣe, wọ́n sì tọ̀ ọ́ lẹ́yìn.
21 And they went into Capernaum; and immediately, on the sabbath, he entered the synagogue, and taught.
Lẹ́yìn náà, Jesu àti àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ wọ ìlú Kapernaumu, nígbà tí ó di òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ ìsinmi, ó lọ sínú Sinagọgu, ó sì ń kọ́ni.
22 And they were astonished at his teaching; for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.
Ẹnu sì ya ìjọ ènìyàn nítorí ìkọ́ni rẹ̀, nítorí pé ó ń kọ́ni bí ẹni tí ó ní àṣẹ, kì í ṣe bí àwọn olùkọ́ òfin ṣe ń kọ́ àwọn ènìyàn.
23 And there was in their synagogue a man who had an unclean spirit; and he cried out,
Ní àsìkò náà gan an ni ọkùnrin kan tí ó wà nínú Sinagọgu wọn, tí ó ní ẹ̀mí àìmọ́, bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í kígbe wí pé,
24 saying: Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Nazarene? Hast thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God.
“Kí ni ìwọ ń wá lọ́dọ̀ wa, Jesu ti Nasareti? Ṣé ìwọ wá láti pa wá run ni? Èmí mọ ẹni tí ìwọ í ṣe; Ìwọ ní ẹni Mímọ́ Ọlọ́run!”
25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying: Be silent, and come out of him.
Jesu si bá a wí, ó wí pé, “Pa ẹnu rẹ mọ́, kí ó sì jáde kúrò lára rẹ̀.”
26 And the unclean spirit threw him into convulsions, and cried with a loud voice, and came out of him.
Ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ náà sì gbé e ṣánlẹ̀ lógèdèǹgbé, ó ké ní ohùn rara, ó sì jáde kúrò lára ọkùnrin náà.
27 And all were amazed, so that they questioned one another, saying: What means this? What new teaching is this, that with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him?
Ẹnu sì ya àwọn ènìyàn, tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí wọ́n fi ń sọ láàrín ara wọn ohun tí ó ti ṣẹlẹ̀. Wọ́n béèrè pẹ̀lú ìgbóná ara, pé, “Kí ni èyí? Irú ẹ̀kọ́ tuntun wo ni èyí? Ó ń fi agbára pàṣẹ fún àwọn ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ pàápàá wọ́n sì gbọ́ tirẹ̀.”
28 And his fame immediately went abroad into all the surrounding country of Galilee.
Ìròyìn nípa rẹ̀ tàn ká gbogbo agbègbè Galili.
29 And forthwith, having gone out of the synagogue, they went into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
Nígbà tí wọn sì jáde kúrò nínú Sinagọgu, wọ́n lọ pẹ̀lú Jakọbu àti Johanu sí ilé Simoni àti Anderu.
30 Now the mother-in-law of Simon lay sick of a fever. And at once they told him of her.
Ìyá ìyàwó Simoni tí ó dùbúlẹ̀ àìsàn ibà, wọ́n sì sọ fún Jesu nípa rẹ̀.
31 And he went to her, and took her by the hand, and raised her up, and the fever left her instantly; and she ministered to them.
Ó sì tọ̀ ọ́ lọ, ó fà á lọ́wọ́, ó sì gbé e dìde; lójúkan náà ibà náà fi sílẹ̀, ó sì ń ṣe ìránṣẹ́ fún wọn.
32 And at evening, when the sun had gone down, they brought to him all that were sick, and those who were possessed with demons.
Nígbà tí ó di àṣálẹ́, tí oòrùn wọ̀, wọ́n gbé gbogbo àwọn aláìsàn àti àwọn tó ni ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ tọ̀ ọ́ wá.
33 And the whole city came together to the door.
Gbogbo ìlú si péjọ ni ẹnu-ọ̀nà.
34 And he cured many that were sick of various diseases, and cast out many demons, and did not suffer the demons to speak, because they knew him.
Jesu sì wo ọ̀pọ̀ tí wọ́n ní onírúurú ààrùn sàn. Bákan náà ni ó lé ọ̀pọ̀ ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ jáde. Ṣùgbọ́n kò sì jẹ́ kí àwọn ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ náà kí ó sọ̀rọ̀, nítorí tí wọ́n mọ ẹni tí òun í ṣe.
35 And very early in the morning, while it was yet dark, he arose and went out, and departed to a desert place, and there prayed.
Ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, kí ilẹ̀ tó mọ́, Jesu nìkan jáde lọ sí aginjù kan, láti lọ gbàdúrà.
36 And Simon, and those who were with him, followed after him.
Simoni àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ yòókù lọ láti wá a.
37 And when they had found him, they said to him: All are seeking for thee.
Nígbà tí wọ́n sì rí I, wọ́n sọ fún wí pé, “Gbogbo ènìyàn ń wá ọ!”
38 And he said to them: Let us go into the neighboring towns, that I may preach there also; for I have come forth for this purpose.
Jesu sì dáhùn wí pé, “Ẹ jẹ́ kí a lọ sí àwọn ìlú mìíràn, kí ń lè wàásù níbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú. Nítorí èyí ni èmi sá à ṣe wá.”
39 And throughout the whole of Galilee he continued to preach in their synagogues, and to cast out demons.
Nítorí náà, ó ń kiri gbogbo agbègbè Galili, ó ń wàásù nínú Sinagọgu. Ó sì ń lé àwọn ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ jáde.
40 And there came to him a leper, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying to him: If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
Ọkùnrin adẹ́tẹ̀ kan tọ̀ ọ́ wá, ó sì kúnlẹ̀ níwájú rẹ̀. Ó sì bẹ̀bẹ̀ fún ìmúláradá. Ó wí pé, “Bí ìwọ bá fẹ́, ìwọ lè mú mi láradá.”
41 And Jesus, moved with compassion, stretched forth his hand, and touched him, and said to him: I will; be clean.
Jesu kún fún àánú, ó na ọwọ́ rẹ̀, ó fi ọwọ́ rẹ̀ bà a, ó wí pé, “Èmí fẹ́. Di mímọ́.”
42 And when he had spoken, the leprosy immediately departed from him, and he was cleansed.
Lójúkan náà ẹ̀tẹ̀ náà fi sílẹ̀ lọ, ọkùnrin náà sì rí ìwòsàn.
43 And he strictly charged him, and forthwith sent him away,
Jesu sì kìlọ̀ fún un gidigidi
44 and said to him: See that you tell no one; but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing the things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.
Ó wí pé, “Lọ fi ara rẹ̀ hàn àlùfáà Júù fún àyẹ̀wò. Ṣùgbọ́n má ṣe dúró sọ ohunkóhun fún ẹnikẹ́ni ní ọ̀nà. Mú ẹ̀bùn lọ́wọ́, èyí tí Mose pàṣẹ fún adẹ́tẹ̀ tí a mú láradá. Èyí tí í ṣe ẹ̀rí pé, ó ti rí ìwòsàn.”
45 But he went out, and began to proclaim it much, and to publish the matter abroad, so that he was no longer able to enter a city openly, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.
Ṣùgbọ́n ó jáde lọ, ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í pòkìkí, ó ń tan ìròyìn kálẹ̀. Nítorí èyí, Jesu kò sì le wọ ìlú ní gbangba mọ́, ṣùgbọ́n ó wà lẹ́yìn odi ìlú ní aginjù. Síbẹ̀, àwọn ènìyàn tọ̀ ọ́ wá láti ibi gbogbo.
