Mark 7
1 [One day some] Pharisees and some men who teach the [Jewish] laws gathered around Jesus. They had come from Jerusalem [to investigate him].
Bafalisi ne beshikwiyisha milawo nabambi balafumina ku Yelusalemu, balamubunganina Yesu.
2 The Pharisees and all of the [other] Jews [strictly] observe the traditions that their ancestors [taught. For example, they refuse to] eat until they first wash their hands [with a special ritual], especially after they [return] from [buying things in] the marketplace. [They think that God will be angry with them if they do not do that, because some person or thing unacceptable to God might have touched] ([them/the things they bought]). There are many other such [traditions] that they accept and try to obey. Specifically, they wash [in a special way] their cups, pots, kettles, containers, and beds [in order that using these things will not make God reject them].
Lino balaboneti beshikwiya nabambi balalinga shinkwa kwakubula kusamba kumakasa mbuli mulawo wa Bafalisi nceulambanga.
Pakwinga Bafalisi ne Bayuda bonse nkabakute kulya kwakubula kusamba kumakasa mbuli mwambo wabakulukulu nceulambanga.
Weco bafuma kumakwebo, nkabali kubilya kabatana babiswepesha nanshi. Kayi pali miyambo ingi njobalatambula ne kwisunga, mbuli kusuka mipika nkomeshi ne mbale kayi ne malili.
5 That day, those Pharisees and men who taught the [Jewish] laws saw that some of his disciples were eating food with hands that they had not washed [using the special ritual]. So they questioned Jesus, saying, “[Your] disciples disobey the traditions of our ancestors! (You should not [let them] eat food if they have not washed their hands [using our special ritual]!/Why do you [let them] eat food if they have not washed their hands [using our special ritual]?) [RHQ]”
Neco aba Bafalisi ne beshikwiyisha milawo balamwipusheti, “Inga nipacebo cini beshikwiya bakobe ncobabulilinga kukonka mwambo wa bakulukulu. Balo balalinga cakulya ne makasa ashilila?”
6 Jesus said to them, “Isaiah [rebuked your ancestors], and his words describe very well you people who only pretend to be good! He wrote these words [that God said]: These people speak [as if they] honor me, but they [SYN] really do not think about honoring me at all.
Yesu walabakumbuleti, “Yesaya walamba cakubinga pakwamba sha bandemi shibili amwe, mbuli Mabala ncakute kwambeti,” Bantu aba bakute kumpa bulemu ne milomo yabo, nsombi myoyo yabo ili kutali nenjame.
7 It is useless for them to worship me, because they teach only what people have commanded [as if I myself had commanded them].
“Bakute kunkambilila pabulyo, pakwinga bakute kwiyisha milawo yabantu kubeti biyisho bya Lesa!
8 You, [like your ancestors], refuse [to do] what God has commanded. Instead, you follow only the traditions that (others/your ancestors) have [taught].”
“Mukute kubika palubasu milawo ya Lesa, ne kuyuminina nta ku mwambo wa bantu.”
9 Jesus also said to them, “[You think] [IRO] that you are clever in refusing to do what God commanded just so that you can obey your own traditions!
Kayi walabambileti, “Mubucenjeshi bwenu mukute kunyakila palubasu milawo ya Lesa kwambeti musunge mwambo wenu.
10 [For example, our ancestor] Moses [wrote God’s] command, ‘Honor your fathers and your mothers’. He also wrote, ‘[The authorities must] execute a person who speaks evil about his father or mother.’
Pakwinga Mose walambeti, ‘Kopa bulemu baiso ne banyoko,’ Kayi walambeti, ‘Uliyense lanyanshanga baishi ne banyina ashinwe.’
11 But you [teach people that it is all right that people no longer must help their parents. You teach people that it is all right if people] give their things to God [instead of giving them to their parents]. You allow them to say to their parents, ‘What I was going to give to you [to provide for you, I have now promised to] give to God. So I [cannot any longer help you]!’ As a result, you are [actually telling people] that they no longer have to help their parents!
Nomba amwe mukute kwambeti muntu ambila baishi nambi banyina, nconkute, ncomwayandangeti ndimunyamfweko, ni kwambeti, ‘ni Kobani (uku ekwambeti cintu ico cilabengwa kuli Lesa).
Nkamukute kumusuminisheti asebensele baishi nambi banyina munshila iliyonse,
13 And, by doing that, you disregard what God commanded! You teach your own traditions to others [and tell them strongly that they should obey them] And you do many other things like that.”
pakwinseco maswi a Lesa akute kuba abulyo pacebo ca mwambo wenu ngomwalatwalila bantu. Kayi mukute kwinsa bintu bingi byakoshana nebi.”
14 Then Jesus again summoned the crowd [to come closer. Then] he said to them [figuratively], “All of you people listen to me! [Try to] understand [DOU] [what I am about to tell you].
Neco Yesu walakuwa likoto lisa lya bantu, ne kutatika kwamba nalyo, “Kamunyumfwani kuno mwense, munyumfwishishe bupandulushi bwakendi.
15 Nothing that people eat causes [God to] consider them to be unacceptable. On the contrary, it is that which comes from people’s (inner beings/hearts) that causes God to reject them.”
Paliya ciliconse cishikufuma kunsa kwa muntu cikute kwingila mumubili mwakendi celela kusafwanya muntu, nsombi bintu bikute kupula mu muntu ebikute kusafwanya muntu.”
“Ukute matwi Anyumfwe.”
17 After Jesus had left the crowd and then entered a house with the disciples, they asked him about the parable [that he had just spoken].
Yesu mpwalafuma palikoto lya bantu walakengila mung'anda, beshikwiya bakendi balatatika kumwipusha sha mukoshano usa.
18 He replied, “([I am disappointed that] you also do not understand [what it means]!/Why can you not understand [what it means]?) [RHQ] (You ought to understand that nothing that [enters us from] outside can cause [God to] consider us unacceptable to him./Can you not understand that nothing that [enters us from] outside of us can cause [God to] consider us unacceptable to him?) [RHQ]
Yesu walabambileti, “Sena nenjamwe nkamuncishi kwambeti paliya cishikufuma kunsa ne kwingila mu mubili wa muntu celela kumusafwanya,
19 Instead of entering [and ruining] our minds/souls, it goes into our stomachs, and afterwards the refuse passes out [of our bodies].” By saying this, Jesus was declaring that people [can eat] any food without causing [God] to reject them.
pakwinga nkacikute kwingila mumoyo, nsombi mumila yakendi. Neco cikute kupula nekuya kucitaila kucisuwa” Palico byakulya byonse byaswepa.
20 He also said, “It is the [thoughts and actions] that come from within people that cause [God] to consider them unacceptable to him.
Kayi walambeti, “cishikufuma mu muntu ecikute kusafwanya muntu,
21 Specifically, it is people’s innermost being [that causes them to] think things that are evil; they act immorally, they steal [things], they commit murder.
pakwinga mukati mu moyo wa muntu, mukute kupula miyeyo yaipa yakwinsa bufule, ya bwibi, yabukapondo,
22 They [commit] adultery, they are greedy, they [act] maliciously, they deceive [people]. They [act] indecently, they envy [people], they speak evil about others, they are proud, and they [act] foolishly.
yabupombo, yakukumbwa kwa munyono, kwinsa byaipa, bwepeshi, bwikalo bwacendende, liso lyalunkumbwa, lunkanwa, kulibonabuntu, kwinsa bintu kwa buluya.
23 People think [these thoughts] and then they do these evil actions, and that is what causes [God to] consider them unacceptable to him.”
Byonsebi byaipa ebikute kupula mukati ne kusafwanya muntu.”
24 After Jesus [and his disciples] left [Galilee district], they went to the region around Tyre. While he stayed at a certain house, he desired that no one know [it], but people soon found out [that he was there].
Yesu mpwalafumako walengila mubibela bya Tulo ne Sidoni. Walaya kwingila mung'anda, neco nkalikuyandeti muntu uliyense enshibe. Nikukabeco bantu balenshiba.
25 A certain woman, whose daughter had an evil spirit [within her], heard about Jesus. At once she came to him and prostrated herself at his feet.
Neco pacindi copeleco mutukashi walikukute mwana mutukashi wekatwa ne mushimu waipa, walanyumfwa sha Yesu, walesa kusuntama pa myendo yakendi.
26 This woman [was not a Jew. Her ancestors came] from Greece [country], but she was born in [the region around] Phoenicia [town] in Syria district. She pleaded with Jesus that he expel the evil spirit from her daughter.
Mutukashi uyu walikuba mu Giliki walasemenwa mu cibela ca Siliya calikukwiweti Foinike. Neco walamusenga Yesu tunkanda twingi kwambeti apulishe mushimu mu mwanendi mutukashi.
27 But he [wanted to see how strongly she believed in him. So, suggesting that he should help the Jews first and not the non-Jews whom some Jews called dogs] [MET], [he] spoke to her saying, “First let the children eat all they want, because it is not good for someone to take the food [the mother has prepared] for the children and then throw it to the [little] dogs.”
Nomba nendi walatatika kwambeti, “Cakutanguna bana ebelela nanshi kwikuta, pakwinga nkacaina kumanta cakulya ca bana ne kupa bakabwa.”
28 But [to show that she believed that non-Jews could also receive help from God] [MET], she replied to him, “Sir, [what you say is] correct, but even the [little] dogs, which lie under the table, eat the crumbs that the children [drop].”
Nomba pakukumbula nendi mutukashi walambeti, “Nicakubinga Nkambo, nomba nabo bakabwa bona mwinshi mutebulu bakute kupembelela kulya bilalashanga bana panshi.” Mpwalanyumfwa maswi alico walamwambila mutukashi,
29 [Jesus] said to her, “Because of what you have said, [you have shown me that you believe in what I can do for you]. So I will help you. Now you may go [home, because I have caused] the evil spirit to leave your daughter.”
“Pakwinga ulambeco, koya, mushimu waipa ulapulumo mu mwanobe.”
30 The woman returned to her house and saw that her child was lying [quietly] on the bed and that the evil spirit had left.
Neco walaya kung'anda kwakendi nekucana mwanendi kali walambalala pabulili mushimu kauli ulapulumo kendi.
31 Jesus [and his disciples] left the region around Tyre [city] and went [north] through Sidon [city], then [toward the east] through the district of the Ten Towns, and then [south] to [the towns near] Lake Galilee.
Lino mpwalikubwela kufuma mubibela bya Tulo, walapita pakati pa Sidoni ne kushika kulwenje lwa Galileya ne kupita mu Cimpansha caminshi likumi.
32 [There], people brought to him a man who was deaf and who could hardly talk. They begged [Jesus] to lay his hands on him [in order to heal him].
Kopeloko bantu balamuletela muntu washinka matwi, kayi wakamama, balamusengeti abike cikasa cakendi palyendiye.
33 [So Jesus] took him away from the crowd [in order that the two of them could be] alone. Then he put [one of] his fingers into [each of] the man’s ears. After he spat [on his fingers], he touched the man’s tongue [with his fingers].
Nomba Yesu walamanta muntuyo pakati pa likoto lya bantu nekuya nendi palubasu. Kopeloko walengisha minwe yakendi mu matwi a muntuyo kayi walasanka mata ne kwikata lulemi lwakendi.
34 Then he looked up toward heaven, he sighed [because he was concerned for the man], and then [in his own language] he said to the man’s [ears], “Ephphatha”, which means, “Be opened {Open up}!”.
Popelapo walalanga kwilu walashinshimuka ne kwambeti, “Ephphata,” Uku ekwambeti, “Caluka.”
35 At once the man could hear plainly [MTY]. He also began to speak clearly because [what was causing him to be unable to speak] was healed {Jesus healed [what was causing him to be unable to speak]}.
Popelako matwi akendi alacaluka, lulemi lwakendi lwalikuba lwasungika lwalasunguluka, walatatika kwamba cena cena.
36 Jesus told ([the people/his friends]) not to tell anyone [what he had done]. But, although he ordered them [and others] repeatedly [not to tell anyone about it], they kept talking about it very much.
Yesu walabakonkomesheti, “Kamutambilako uliyense,” Nomba balo empobalikuya kwamba kulikonse.
37 [People who heard about it] were utterly amazed and were saying [enthusiastically], “Everything he has done is wonderful! [Besides doing other amazing things], he enables deaf people to hear! And he enables those who cannot speak to speak!”
Cakubinga balikukankamana ne kwambeti, “Bintu byonse labinshi cena nditu, bashinka matwi balanyumfunga, ne bacibulu balambanga.”
