Mark 6
1 And he went forth from thence, and cometh into his own city, —and his disciples follow him.
Yesu aliondoka hapo akaenda katika kijiji chake, akifuatwa na wanafunzi wake.
2 And, when it was Sabbath, he began to be teaching in the synagogue, and, the greater part, as they heard, were being struck with astonishment, saying—Whence hath this man these things?—and—What the wisdom which hath been given to this man?—and—Such mighty works as these, through his hands, are coming to pass!
Siku ya Sabato ilipofika, alianza kufundisha katika sunagogi. Wengi waliomsikia walishangaa, wakasema, “Je, ameyapata wapi mambo haya? Ni hekima gani hii aliyopewa? Tena, anatendaje maajabu haya anayoyafanya?
3 Is not, this, the carpenter? the son of Mary, the brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?—and they were finding cause of stumbling in him.
Je, huyu si yule seremala mwana wa Maria, na ndugu yao kina Yakobo, Yose, Yuda na Simoni; Je, dada zake si wanaishi papa hapa kwetu?” Basi, wakawa na mashaka naye.
4 And Jesus was saying unto them—A prophet is not without honour, save in his own city and among his kinsfolk, and in his house;
Yesu akawaambia, “Nabii hakosi heshima isipokuwa katika nchi yake, kwa jamaa zake na nyumbani mwake.”
5 and he could not, there, do so much as a single mighty work, —save, on a few sick, he laid his hands and cured them.
Hakuweza kutenda miujiza hapo, ila aliwawekea mikono wagonjwa wachache, akawaponya.
6 And he marvelled because of their unbelief. And he was going round the villages in a circuit, teaching.
Alishangaa sana kwa sababu ya kutoamini kwao. Kisha Yesu alivitembelea vijiji vya pale karibu akiwafundisha watu.
7 And he calleth near the twelve, and began to be sending them forth two and two, —and was giving them authority over the impure spirits:
Aliwaita wale wanafunzi kumi na wawili, akaanza kuwatuma wawiliwawili. Aliwapa uwezo wa kuwatoa pepo wachafu,
8 and charged them that they should take, nothing, for a journey, save a staff only, —no bread, no satchel, no copper, for the belt;
na kuwaamuru, “Msichukue chochote mnapokwenda isipokuwa fimbo tu. Msichukue mkate, wala mkoba, wala fedha kibindoni.
9 but having bound on light sandals, and not to put on, two tunics;
Vaeni viatu lakini msivae kanzu mbili.”
10 and he was saying unto them—Wheresoever ye shall enter into a house, there, abide, until ye go forth from thence;
Tena aliwaambia, “Popote mtakapokaribishwa nyumbani, kaeni humo mpaka mtakapoondoka mahali hapo.
11 And, whatsoever place shall not welcome you nor hearken unto you, when ye are going forth from thence, shake off the dust that is under you feet, for a witness against them.
Mahali popote ambapo watu watakataa kuwakaribisheni au kuwasikiliza, ondokeni hapo na kuyakung'uta mavumbi miguuni mwenu kama onyo kwao.”
12 And they went forth and made proclamation, in order that men should repent;
Basi, wakaondoka, wakahubiri watu watubu.
13 and, many demons, were they casting out, —and were anointing with oil, many sick, and were curing them.
Waliwafukuza pepo wengi wabaya; wakawapaka mafuta wagonjwa wengi, wakawaponya.
14 And King Herod heard, —for, famous, had become his name; and he was saying—John the Immerser hath arisen from among the dead, and, for this cause, are the powers working mightily in him;
Basi, mfalme Herode alisikia juu ya hayo yote, maana sifa za Yesu zilienea kila mahali. Baadhi ya watu walikuwa wakisema, “Yohane Mbatizaji amefufuka kutoka wafu, ndiyo maana nguvu za miujiza zinafanya kazi ndani yake.”
15 But, others, were saying—It is Elijah, and, others were saying—A prophet, like one of the prophets!
Wengine walisema, “Mtu huyu ni Eliya.” Wengine walisema, “Huyu ni nabii kama mmojawapo wa manabii wa kale.”
16 But, when Herod heard, he was saying—He whom I beheaded—John, the same, hath been raised.
Lakini Herode alipopata habari hizi alisema, “Huyu ni Yohane! Nilimkata kichwa, lakini amefufuka.”
17 For, Herod himself, had sent and secured John and bound him in prison, for the sake of Herodias the wife of Philip his brother, —for, her, had he married,
Hapo awali Herode mwenyewe alikuwa ameamuru Yohane atiwe nguvuni, akamfunga gerezani. Herode alifanya hivyo kwa sababu ya Herodia ambaye Herode alimwoa ingawaje alikuwa mke wa Filipo, ndugu yake.
18 For John had been saying to Herod—It is not allowed thee, to have, the wife of thy brother.
Yohane alikuwa amemwambia Herode, “Si halali kwako kumchukua mke wa ndugu yako.”
19 And, Herodias, was cherishing [a grudge] against him, and wishing, to slay him, —and could not;
Basi Herodia alimchukia sana Yohane, akataka kumwua, asiweze.
20 for, Herod, stood in fear of John, knowing him to be a man righteous and holy, —and was keeping him safe; and, when he heard him, he paid earnest heed, and, with pleasure, used to listen to him.
Herode alimwogopa Yohane kwa maana alijua kwamba yeye ni mtu mwema na mtakatifu, na hivyo akamlinda. Herode alipenda kumsikiliza Yohane, ingawaje baada ya kumsikiliza, alifadhaika sana.
21 And, an opportune day arriving, when Herod on his birthday made a feast for his nobles, and for the rulers of thousands and for the first men of Galilee,
Ikapatikana nafasi, wakati wa sikukuu ya kuzaliwa kwake Herode. Herode aliwafanyia karamu wazee wa baraza lake, majemadari na viongozi wa Galilaya.
22 when the daughter of this very Herodias came in and danced, she pleased Herod and those reclining together, and, the king, said unto the damsel—Ask me what thou wilt, and I will give it thee;
Basi, binti yake Herodia aliingia, akacheza, akawafurahisha sana Herode na wageni wake. Mfalme akamwambia huyo msichana, “Niombe chochote utakacho, nami nitakupa.”
23 and he took an oath to her—Whatsoever thou shalt ask me, I will give thee, unto half my kingdom.
Tena akamwapia, “Chochote utakachoniomba, nitakupa: hata ikiwa ni nusu ya ufalme wangu.”
24 And, going out, she said unto her mother—What shall I ask? and she said—The head of John the Immerser;
Hapo huyo msichana akatoka, akamwuliza mama yake, “Niombe nini?” Naye akamjibu, “Kichwa cha Yohane mbatizaji.”
25 And, coming in straightway, with hast, unto the king, she asked, saying—I desire, that, forthwith, thou give me, upon a charger, the head of John the Immerser.
Msichana akamrudia mfalme mbio akamwomba, “Nataka unipe sasa hivi katika sinia kichwa cha Yohane mbatizaji.”
26 And, though the king was, very grieved, yet, by reason of the oaths, and of them who were reclining, he would not refuse her.
Mfalme akahuzunika sana, lakini kwa sababu ya kiapo chake, na kwa ajili ya wale wageni wake karamuni, hakutaka kumkatalia.
27 And the king, straightway, sending off a guard, gave orders to bring his head.
Basi, mfalme akamwamuru askari kukileta kichwa cha Yohane. Askari akaenda, akamkata kichwa Yohane mle gerezani,
28 And, departing, he beheaded him in the prison, and brought his head upon a charger, and gave it unto the damsel—and, the damsel, gave it unto her mother.
akakileta katika sinia, akampa msichana naye msichana akampa mama yake.
29 And, hearing of it, his disciples went and took away his corpse, and laid it in a tomb.
Wanafunzi wa Yohane walipopata habari, walikwenda wakachukua mwili wake, wakauzika kaburini.
30 And the apostles gather themselves together unto Jesus, and reported unto him all things, as many as they had done, and as many as they had taught.
Wale mitume walirudi, wakakusanyika mbele ya Yesu wakamwarifu yote waliyotenda na kufundisha.
31 And he saith unto them—Come, ye yourselves, apart, into a desert place, and rest yourselves a little. For they who were coming and they who were going were many, and, not even to eat, were they finding fitting opportunity.
Alisema hivyo kwa kuwa kulikuwa na watu wengi mno walikuwa wanafika hapo na kuondoka hata Yesu na wanafunzi wake hawakuweza kupata nafasi ya kula chakula. Basi, Yesu akawaambia, “Twendeni peke yetu mahali pa faragha kula chakula, mkapumzike kidogo.”
32 And they departed, in the boat, into a desert place, apart.
Basi, Wakaondoka peke yao kwa mashua, wakaenda mahali pa faragha.
33 And many saw them going away, and took note of it, and, afoot, from all the cities, ran they together thither, —and outwent them.
Lakini watu wengi waliwaona wakienda, wakawatambua. Hivyo wengi wakatoka katika kila mji, wakakimbilia huko Yesu na wanafunzi wake walikokuwa wanakwenda, wakawatangulia kufika.
34 And, coming forth, he saw, a great multitude, and was moved with compassion towards them, because they were like sheep having no shepherd, and he began to be teaching them many things.
Waliposhuka pwani, Yesu aliona umati mkubwa wa watu, akawahurumia, kwa sababu walikuwa kama kondoo wasio na mchungaji. Akaanza kuwafundisha mambo mengi.
35 And, already, a late hour, having arrived, his disciples came unto him and were saying, A desert, is the place, and it is, already, a late hour:
Saa za mchana zilikwisha pita. Basi, wanafunzi wakamwendea Yesu, wakamwambia, “Hapa ni nyikani, na sasa kunakuchwa.
36 dismiss them, that, departing into the surrounding hamlets and villages, they may buy themselves something to eat.
Afadhali uwaage watu waende mashambani na katika vijiji vya jirani, wanunue chakula.”
37 But, he, answering said to them—Ye, give them, to eat. And they say unto him—Shall we depart and buy two hundred denaries’ worth of loaves, and give them to eat?
Lakini Yesu akawaambia, “Wapeni ninyi chakula.” Nao wakamwuliza, “Je, twende kununua mikate kwa fedha dinari mia mbili, na kuwapa chakula?”
38 And, he, saith unto them—How many loaves, have ye? Go, see! And, getting to know, they say—Five, and, two fishes.
Yesu akawauliza, “Mnayo mikate mingapi? Nendeni mkatazame.” Walipokwisha tazama, wakamwambia, “Kuna mikate mitano na samaki wawili.”
39 And he gave them orders, that all should be made recline, in parties, upon, the green grass.
Basi, Yesu akawaamuru wanafunzi wawaketishe watu wote makundimakundi penye nyasi.
40 And they fell back, in companies, by hundreds and by fifties.
Nao wakaketi makundimakundi ya watu mia moja na ya watu hamsini.
41 And, taking the five loaves, and the two fishes, looking up into heaven, he blessed, and brake up the loaves, and began giving unto the disciples, that they might set before them, and, the two fishes, divided he, unto all.
Kisha Yesu akaitwaa ile mikate mitano na wale samaki wawili, akatazama juu mbinguni, akamshukuru Mungu, akaimega mikate, akawapa wanafunzi wake wawagawie watu. Na wale samaki wawili pia akawagawia wote.
42 And they did all eat, and were filled.
Watu wote wakala, wakashiba.
43 And they took up broken pieces, twelve baskets, full measure, and from the fishes.
Wakaokota mabaki ya mikate na samaki pia, wakajaza vikapu kumi na viwili.
44 And they who did eat the loaves were, five thousand men.
Nao waliokula hiyo mikate walikuwa wanaume elfu tano.
45 And, straightway, constrained he his disciples to enter into the boat, and be going forward to the other side, unto Bethsaida, —while, he, was dismissing the multitude.
Mara Yesu akawaamuru wanafunzi wake wapande mashua, wamtangulie kwenda Bethsaida, ng'ambo ya ziwa, wakati yeye anauaga umati wa watu.
46 And, bidding them farewell, he departed into the mountain to pray.
Baada ya kuwaaga watu alikwenda mlimani kusali.
47 And, when, evening, came, the boat was in the midst of the sea, and, he alone, on the land.
Ilipokuwa jioni, mashua ilikuwa katikati ya ziwa, naye alikuwa peke yake katika nchi kavu.
48 And, seeing them distressed in the rowing, for the wind was against them, about the fourth watch of the night, he cometh unto them, walking upon the sea, —and was wishing to pass by them.
Basi, akawaona wanafunzi wake wakitaabika kwa kupiga makasia, maana upepo ulikuwa unawapinga. Karibu na mapambazuko, Yesu aliwaendea akitembea juu ya maji. Alitaka kuwapita.
49 But, they, seeing him, upon the sea, walking, supposed that it was an apparition, and cried out aloud;
Lakini walimwona akitembea juu ya maji, wakadhani ni mzimu, wakapiga yowe.
50 for, all, saw him, and were troubled. But, he, straightway, talked with them, and saith unto them—Take courage! it is, I—be not afraid!
Maana wote walipomwona waliogopa sana. Mara Yesu akasema nao, “Tulieni, ni mimi. Msiogope!”
51 And he went up unto them, into the boat, —and the wind lulled. And, exceedingly, within themselves, were they astonished;
Kisha akapanda mashuani walimokuwa, na upepo ukatulia. Nao wakashangaa sana.
52 for they understood not by the loaves, —but their, heart, had been, hardened.
maana hawakuwa bado wameelewa maana ya ile mikate. Akili zao zilikuwa bado zimepumbazika.
53 And crossing over unto the land, they came unto Gennesaret, and cast anchor near.
Walivuka ziwa, wakafika nchi ya Genesareti, wakatia nanga.
54 And, when they had, come forth, out of the boat, straightway, recognizing him,
Walipotoka mashuani, mara watu wakamtambua Yesu.
55 the people ran round the whole of that country, and began to be carrying round, upon couches, them who were sick, wherever they heard that he was.
Basi, kwa haraka wakazunguka katika nchi ile yote, wakaanza kuwachukua wagonjwa wamelala juu ya mikeka yao, wakawapeleka kila mahali waliposikia Yesu yupo.
56 And, wheresoever he was entering into villages, or into cities, or into hamlets, in the marketplaces, laid they the sick, and were beseeching him, that, only the fringe of his mantle, they might touch, and, as many soever as touched it, were being made well.
Kila mahali Yesu alipokwenda, vijijini, mijini, au mashambani, watu waliwaweka wagonjwa uwanjani, wakamsihi waguse walau pindo la vazi lake. Nao wote waliomgusa walipona.
