< Mark 4 >

1 Jesus began teaching beside the Sea again. So many people came to listen to him that he climbed into a boat and sat in it on the water while the crowd listened from the shore.
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.
2 He illustrated his teachings using many stories.
A dursuzo nani imon gbardang nin tinan tigoldo, nan nya dursuzoe, a woro nani:
3 “Listen,” he said. “A sower went out to sow.
Lanzan unan tibila wa nusu udu tibila.
4 Now as he was scattering the seeds, some fell on the path, and birds came and ate them up.
Adi tibile, imong imus disso libau, aying da zoto ining.
5 Other seeds fell on stony ground where there wasn't much earth. In the shallow soil the plants started growing quickly, but because the soil wasn't deep
Imong imus disso kupanbaran, bara usalin nmyin, imuse nuzu deidei, bara na nmyine wa di tendeleng.
6 they were scorched when the sun came up. Since they didn't have any real roots, they soon withered.
Kube na uwui wa ghana, bara na nmyine wadi tendeleng kutyiene pya itunna ikoto.
7 Other seeds fell among thorns. The thorns grew up and choked the sprouting seeds, so they produced nothing.
Imon imus disso nan nya nimart. Na imarte kuno itunna iparda ining na ita iyip ba.
8 Other seeds fell on good soil where they sprouted and grew. They produced a harvest of some thirty, some sixty, and some a hundred times what was planted.
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.”
9 If you have ears to hear, listen to what I'm saying.”
Aworo “Ulenge na adinin natuf in lanze na alanza.”
10 When he was by himself, his twelve disciples and the others who were with him asked him what the illustrations meant.
Kube na Yisa wa di usamme, ale na iwa di susut ligowe nighe nin nono katwa me likure nin nan waba itiringhe tigoldo tone.
11 He told them, “The mystery of God's kingdom has been given to you to understand. But outsiders only have the stories,
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,
12 so that even though they see, they don't really ‘see,’ and even though they hear, they don't understand, otherwise they might turn to me and be forgiven.”
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.”
13 “Don't you understand this story?” Jesus asked them. “If you can't, how are you going to understand all the other stories?
Aworo, “Na anung nyinno ko kugolde ba? Ibati iyiziari iyinin kagisin tigolde?
14 The sower sows the word.
Unan tibile wa bilsu uliru Kutellẹ.
15 The seeds on the path where the word is sown illustrate those who hear the message, but then Satan immediately comes along and takes away the word that's been sown in them.
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.
16 Likewise the seeds on the rocky ground illustrate those who hear the word, and happily accept it right away.
Inughere ilenge na iwa dissu kitene kupanbara, inughe wa lanza uliru Kutellẹ asa itunna isere unin deidei nin nayi-abo;
17 But since they have no real roots, they only last for a while until trouble or persecution comes, and then they quickly fall away.
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.
18 Those sown among the thorns illustrate those who hear the word,
Imong ilenge na iwa bilsu nan nya nimart. Inneghare wa lanza ulire.
19 but worries of this world, the temptation of wealth, and other distractions choke the growth of the word, and it becomes unproductive. (aiōn g165)
nin nanere adadun inyi, nin tok kagisin nimon in yï, nin lanzu mmang parda ulire, itunna iso hem. (aiōn g165)
20 But the seeds sown on good soil illustrate those who hear the word, accept it, and are productive—producing thirty, sixty, and hundred times what was originally sown.
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.
21 Who puts a lamp under a bucket, or beneath a bed?” Jesus asked them. “No, you put a lamp up on a lamp-stand.
Yisa woro nani, “uwa ti ula inpitilla asa ucheu unin nan nya kukuzughare sa nan nya lii. komi? Asa utarda unin in tadangha.
22 Everything that is hidden will be revealed, and everything that is secret will be brought out into the open.
Na imoimon yeshin ilenge na iwaghya idira upune ba, sa imoimon nan nya sirti na iba diru unutune ikanang ba.
23 If you have ears to hear, listen to what I'm saying!
Ulenge na adinin natuf nlanze, na alanza.
24 Pay attention to what you're hearing,” he told them, “for you will be given according to how much you want to receive, measure for measure.
Aworo nani, “Dinan atuf nimon ile na idin lanzu, kuyangi ko na uguro mun, kunnare iba guru fi mun ukuru use gbardang wang.
25 More will be given to those who already have understanding, but those who don't want to know will have what little understanding they have taken from them.
Bara vat nle na adinin nimon iba kpinghe ku, ulenge na asalimun, kitime ima seru ilenge na adimun wang.”
26 God's kingdom is like a man sowing seed in the ground,” Jesus said.
Yisa woro, “Kipin Tigö Kutellẹ masin fo unitari na awa bilsu imus kutein.
27 “He goes to bed and gets up, day after day, but the man has no knowledge of how the seeds sprout and grow.
Asa a nö nmoro afita kitik nin liring, imuse nuzu ikuno ame löng, na asa yiro nin tikunnanghe ba.
28 The earth produces a harvest by itself. First a shoot appears, then the heads of grain, and then the heads of grain ripen.
Kutyiene asa kunutno imus nin litime ita ticilak, itunna nabaga, inin kunjo ida nutuno ati inin ta iyip.
29 When the grain is ripe, the farmer reaps it with a sickle, because the harvest is ready.
Kubi ko na ilewe inyini, ata mass ayira kuwatan a basa bara na kubin basu. “
30 What can we compare God's kingdom to? What illustration shall we use?” he asked.
Aworo, “iyapin imonari iba batu kipin tigoh Kutellẹ mun nin, tutung tiyapin tigoldori iba batizu mun?
31 “It's like a mustard seed, the tiniest seed of all.
Timasin fo fiyip kukù, na iwa bilsu fi katin ko fiyapin fiyip nin cingiling na asa ibila kuttyien.
32 But when it's sown it grows into a plant that's larger than other plants. It has branches big enough that birds can roost in its shade.”
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.”
33 Jesus used many of these illustrated stories when he spoke to the people so they would understand as much as they could.
Nin tinan tigoldo gbardang nafo tone a bele nani uliru Kutellẹ, udu ligang longo na yiru ulanze.
34 In fact, when he spoke publicly, he only used stories; however in private he explained everything to his disciples.
Nin nani na awa sunani uliru sa tinang tigoldo ba. Nin nani ame ligowe nin nono katwa mere cas asa apuno nani ncasarak nlire.
35 Later that day, in the evening, he said to his disciples, “Let's go across to the other side of the Sea.”
Lilole nin kuleleng aworo nani, channari ti kafi uleli uwule.”
36 Leaving the crowd behind, the disciples went with Jesus and got into a boat. Other boats went with them.
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.
37 Soon a terrible storm started blowing, and waves crashed against the boat, filling it with water.
Fiyilili nin funu udya tunna ufita nan nya kurawẹ, tikara nmyen tunnan pichu nan nya zirge utunna ulentina ukulu nin nmyen.
38 Jesus was asleep in the stern, resting his head on a cushion. The disciples woke him up, shouting at him, “Teacher, don't you care that we're about to drown?”
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?”
39 Jesus woke up. He told the wind to die down and told the waves, “Be quiet! Be still.” The wind stopped, and the water became completely calm.
Na azinto, a kpada ufune, anin woro kurawe, ta shew, yisina tik.” Ufune tunna u kete, kurawe tunna kusina dang.
40 “Why are you so frightened? Haven't you learned to trust me?” he asked them.
Aworo nani nenge, “Bara iyaghari tå inani lanza fiu? Na iduu nin yinnu sa uyenu mine.”
41 They were stunned and terrified. They asked each other, “Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!”
Fiu fidya wa kifo nani iworo nati mine, “imusin yapin unitari ulele di, na ufunu nin kurawa wang din dortu uliru me?”
