Mark 4
1 And again he began to teach by the sea. And a great crowd was gathered together to him, so that going on board ship he sat in the sea, and all the crowd were close to the sea on the land.
Ie niorotse nañoke añ’olon-driake eo indraike le akore ty hamaron-dahialeñe nihipoke ama’ey kanao nijon-dakañe le niambesatse an-driake ey, vaho tañ’ olotse, an-tamboho ey i màroy.
2 And he taught them many things in parables. And he said to them in his doctrine,
Le nitaroña’e raha maro am-pandrazàñañe, vaho hoe re te nañoke:
3 Hearken: Behold, the sower went forth to sow.
Inao: Teo te niavotse mb’eo ty mpandrara-tabiry handrarake.
4 And it came to pass as he sowed, one fell by the wayside, and the birds came and devoured it.
Ie nandrarake, le nipoke añ’ olon-dalañe eo ty ila’e vaho nimb’eo o voroñeo nitsimok’ aze.
5 And another fell on the rocky ground, where it had not much earth, and immediately it sprung up out [of the ground] because it had no depth of earth;
Ty ila’e nipoke ami’ty lamilamy marivo tane, le nitiry aniany, amy te tsy nilaleke i taney,
6 and when the sun arose it was burnt up, and because of its not having any root, it withered.
ie nanjirike i àndroy, le nimae, vaho niforejeje amy te tsy niam-bahatse.
7 And another fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
Nipoke am-patike ao ka ty ila’e, le nitiram-patike nampidageañe aze vaho tsy namoa.
8 And another fell into the good ground, and yielded fruit, growing up and increasing; and bore, one thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundred.
Ty ila’e nipoke an-tane hoba, le nitiry naho nandrevake vaho namokatse, teo ty telo-polo, teo ty enem-polo, vaho teo ty zato.
9 And he said, He that has ears to hear, let him hear.
Le hoe re: Ze aman-dravembia mahajanjiñe, Mijanjiña.
10 And when he was alone, those about him with the twelve asked him [as to] the parables.
Ie nitolake, le nañontanea’ o mpiama’eo naho i folo ro’amby rey i nirazañe’ey,
11 And he said to them, To you is given [to know] the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to them who are without, all things are done in parables,
vaho nanoa’e ty hoe: Inahareo ro nitolorañe ty tafatoño’ i Fifehean’ Añaharey, le hene razañeñe o alafe’eo
12 that beholding they may behold and not see, and hearing they may hear and not understand, lest it may be, they should be converted and they should be forgiven.
soa te: ie miisake, ro hañisake fe tsy hahaoniñe; ie mitsendreñe, ro hijanjiñe, fe tsy haharendreke; ke hitolike, vaho ho hahàñe o tahi’iareoo.
13 And he says to them, Do ye not know this parable? and how will ye be acquainted with all the parables?
Le hoe re tam’ iereo: Tsy nirendre’ areo hao i ohatse zay? aa le akore ty haharendreha’ areo o fandrazañañe iabio?
14 The sower sows the word:
Mandrarake o tsarao i mpandrarakey.
15 and these are they by the wayside where the word is sown, and when they hear, immediately Satan comes and takes away the word that was sown in them.
O añ’olon-dalañeo, amy nandrarahañe i tsaraiy, ie mijanjiñe, pok’eo aniany i mpañìnjey manoitse i tsara nararake am’ iareoy.
16 And these are they in like manner who are sown upon the rocky places, who when they hear the word, immediately receive it with joy,
Manahake zay o nararake am-batovatoeñeo, ie mahatsendreñe i tsaray le mandrambe aze an-kaehake amy zao;
17 and they have no root in themselves, but are for a time: then, tribulation arising, or persecution on account of the word, immediately they are offended.
f’ie tsy amam-bahatse, le aniany avao te mitojeha ty hasilofañe ndra ty fampisoañañe ty amy tsaray le torifike iareo.
18 And others are they who are sown among the thorns: these are they who have heard the word,
I nararake am-patike ao rezay, le o mijanjiñe i tsaraio,
19 and the cares of life, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things, entering in, choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
fe mitsamoake ao ty fihakahaka’ ty tane toy, naho ty hakalitaha’ o varao, naho ty hatea-raha ila’e, ze mahadageañe i tsaray tsy hamokatse. (aiōn g165)
20 And these are they who have been sown on the good ground, such as hear the word and receive it, and bear fruit; one thirty, and one sixty, and one a hundred [fold].
O retoañe nararake an-tane soao, le mijanjiñe i tsaray naho mandrambe aze vaho mamokatse: eo ty telo-polo, eo ty enem-polo, vaho eo ty zato.
21 And he said to them, Does the lamp come that it should be put under the bushel or under the couch? [Is it] not that it should be set upon the lamp-stand?
Le hoe re tam’ iereo: Endeseñe ho rongonan-karoñe hao ty jiro? ke hazilike ambane fandreañe ao? tsy hàmake t’ie apoke am-panampezan-jiro ey hao?
22 For there is nothing hidden which shall not be made manifest; nor does any secret thing take place, but that it should come to light.
Toe tsy ao ty naetake ze tsy ho bentareñe, vaho tsy ao ty nitsikoeñe ze tsy ho boraheñe.
23 If any one have ears to hear, let him hear.
Ze aman-dravembia hijanjiñe, Mijanjiña.
24 And he said to them, Take heed what ye hear; with what measure ye mete, it shall be meted to you; and there shall be [more] added to you.
Le hoe re tam’ iereo: Ereñereo o janjiñe’ areoo; fa ami’ty fañarànañe añaràna’ areo ro añarànañe ama’ areo vaho ho tompeañe ama’areo mijanjiñe.
25 For whosoever has, to him shall be given; and he who has not, even what he has shall be taken from him.
Ho tovoñeñe ze manañe, fa ami’ty tsy manañe ndra ty kedekedek’ ama’e ro sintoneñe.
26 And he said, Thus is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast the seed upon the earth,
Le hoe re: Razañeñe amy t’indaty mandrarake tabiry an-tane eo i Fifehean’ Añaharey,
27 and should sleep and rise up night and day, and the seed should sprout and grow, he does not know how.
mirotse re te haleñe naho mitroatse boak’ andro; mitiry naho mitombo i tabiriy, fe tsy apota’e te manao akore.
28 The earth bears fruit of itself, first [the] blade, then an ear, then full corn in the ear.
Mampitiry ho aze i taney: i losoy aolo, le i toka-tsofi’ey, vaho zay o voa’e matoe an-doha’eo.
29 But when the fruit is produced, immediately he sends the sickle, for the harvest is come.
Ie rifo le ahitri’e i mesoy fa tondroke ty fitatahañe.
30 And he said, How should we liken the kingdom of God, or with what comparison should we compare it?
Hoe ka re: Inoñe ty handrazañan-tika i Fifehean’ Añaharey? Ohatse manao akore ty ampidodean-tika aze?
31 As to a grain of mustard [seed], which, when it is sown upon the earth, is less than all seeds which are upon the earth,
Ampanahafeñe ami’ty voa-nonoke, ie amboleañ’ an-tane ro kede amy ze tabiry an-tane atoy;
32 and when it has been sown, mounts up and becomes greater than all herbs, and produces great branches, so that the birds of heaven can roost under its shadow.
f’ie tongisañe, le mitiry naho midorenake mandikoatse ze hatae an-tetek’ao vaho ampandrevahe’e tsampañe hanoa’ o voron-dikerañeo traño añ’alo’e ao.
33 And with many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear,
Maro ty fandrazañañe nitsarae’e hoe zay ty amy nahafijanjiña’ iareo.
34 but without a parable spoke he not to them; and in private he explained all things to his disciples.
Le tsy nitaroña’e naho tsy am-pandrazañañe avao; ie nitolake vaho nampalange ze he’e amo mpiama’eo.
35 And on that day, when evening was come, he says to them, Let us go over to the other side:
Ie niroñe ho hariva i àndroy, le hoe re am’iereo: Antao hitsake mb’andafe eñe.
36 and having sent away the crowd, they take him with [them], as he was, in the ship. But other ships also were with him.
Nienga i lahialeñey iereo naho nendesen-dre, ie tan-dakañe ao avao. Nindre lia ama’e ka ty lakañe ila’e.
37 And there comes a violent gust of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it already filled.
Nikofaok’ amy zao ty tio-bey, le trinabotrabo’ o onjao i lakañey, ie nañaly ho pea.
38 And he was in the stern sleeping on the cushion. And they awake him up and say to him, Teacher, dost thou not care that we are perishing?
Tam-boli’ i lakañey re nirotse añ-akalañe, le nampivañoneñe ami’ty hoe: O Talè, tsy ahoa’o hao t’ie òpo?
39 And awaking up he rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, Silence; be mute. And the wind fell, and there was a great calm.
Nitroatse re nitrevoke i tiokey naho nanao ty hoe amy riakey, Manintsiña, mipendreña. Le nijihetse i tiokey vaho nipendreñe ami’ty do’e.
40 And he said to them, Why are ye [thus] fearful? how [is it] ye have not faith?
Le hoe re tam’ iereo: Ino ty ihembaña’ areo? Mboe tsy am-patokisañe hao?
41 And they feared [with] great fear, and said one to another, Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
F’ie nianifañe, nifanao ty hoe: Ondaty manao akore v’itoio, te ivohora’ i tiokey naho i riakey!
