Mark 1
1 ([This is/I want to tell you]) the good message about Jesus Christ, the Son of God (OR, the man who was also God). [What I want to tell you] begins just like the prophet Isaiah [said it would begin, when] he wrote [these words that God said to Jesus: ] Listen! I am sending my messenger ahead of you. He will prepare [people for] your [coming].
U tienu bijua Jesu kirisi laabaalŋanmo cilma
Nani lan diani nandi osawalipualo Isahi tili nni. Ya nua min sɔni ya tondo a kani.
3 He will call out to people [who pass by where he is] in the desolate area, “As people improve and straighten out pathways [before an important official arrives] [MET], make [yourselves] ready [DOU] [in order that you will be prepared when] the Lord [comes].”
O tie ya nnilo kpaandi li fuali nni ki maadi ke; ŋanbi mani t yonmdaano sani ke lan tua sansiedu.
4 [The messenger that Isaiah predicted was] John. [People called him] ‘The Baptizer’. In the desolate area near the Jordan River he kept telling people, “If you want God to forgive you for having sinned, you must turn away from your sinful behavior [before you ask me to] baptize [you].”
San bo cua ki wuli bi niba m ñima li fuali nni ki wangi'ba ke ban lebidi bi pala ki ŋaa t tuonbiadi. Ke o Tienu n tieni b po sugili bi po.
5 A great number [HYP] of people who lived in Jerusalem [city] and [elsewhere] in the Judea [district] were going out to where John was. There, [after hearing John’s message], they [responded by] confessing the sinful things [that they had done]. Then they were being baptized by John {John was baptizing them} in the Jordan River.
Jude dogu nni yaaaba yeni Jelisalemi yaaba kuli bo cuoni Jan kani. B bo tuo ki waani bi tuonbiadi ke Jan wuli'ba Jude kpenu nni.
6 John wore [rough] clothes made of camel’s hair. And [as the prophet Elijah had done], he wore a leather belt around his waist; and what he ate was [only] grasshoppers and honey [that he found] in that desolate area.
Jan bo laa li liadili ke b lugi yeni u yuoyuogu kobidi ki loli li gbanli o ciaga nni. T ñankpandi yeni t siidi n bo tie o jiema.
7 He was preaching, “Very shortly a man will come who is very great. I [am nothing compared to him. Because he is so superior to me], I am not even worthy to [serve him like a slave] by stooping down and untying his sandals.
Jan bo waan'ba ki yedi: o tiano gɔ ŋua n puoli ki pia u paalu boncianli ki cie n i. Mini k pundi yua ba gbaani ki gbindi o taacaagbani
8 I used [only] water when I baptized you [because you said that you wanted to change your lives], but he will put his Holy Spirit [within] you [to truly change your lives].”
Mini wani wuli yeni m ñima ama wani baa wul' i yeni fuoŋanma i.
9 During that time [when John was preaching], Jesus came from Nazareth [town], which is in Galilee [district]. He went to [where John was preaching] and he was baptized by John {John baptized him} in the Jordan [River].
Lani ya daali ke Jesu bo ñani Gaalile dogu nni Naasaleti nni ki cua Jan kani ki gɔ wul'o Jude kpenu i
10 Immediately after [Jesus] came up out of the water, he saw heaven opened up [and he saw] the Spirit [of God] descending on himself. He came in the form of a dove.
Jesu n bo ñani mi ñinma nni yaa yogu o bo la ke tanpoli luodi ke fuoŋanma ñani ki naani ki lanjiepienga yeni ke baa jagini o po
11 And [God] [MTY] spoke to him from heaven saying, “You are my Son, whom I love dearly. I am very pleased with you.”
Li yogu o nialu bo ñani tanpoli po ki maadi: O ne tie n bijua n pia li pakɔnli o po boncianla. N taa n buama kuli ki teni ŋa.
12 (Then/Right away) the Spirit [of God] sent Jesus into the desolate area.
Ama fuoŋanma bo tudi'o ki gedi yen'o hali i tinkuonga nni.
13 He was there for 40 days. During that time, he was tempted by Satan {Satan tempted him}. There were wild animals [there] also. But angels took care of him.
O bo tieni danapiina ke Sitaani bigin'o, o bo ye yeni t muayandi ke maleki-ba ke u Tienu maleki -nba caan'o.
14 Later, after John was put in prison {after [soldiers] put John in prison} [because he had rebuked the governor Herod Antipas for his sins], Jesus went to Galilee [district]. There he was preaching the good message [that came] from God.
Ama ya yogu ke b bo cuo Jan batisi Jesu bo cua Gaalile ki wangi u Tienu laabaaŋanmo.
15 He was repeatedly saying, “Now is the time when God will begin to rule people’s lives [in a new way]. [So] turn away from your sinful behavior! Believe the good message [in order] ([to belong to him/to become those whose lives he will rule])!”
O bo maadi «u yogu kuli pundi n yeni u Tienu diema mo nagi. Lebidi mani i yama ki tuo u Tienu laabaaŋanmo.
16 [One day], while Jesus was walking along by Galilee Lake, he saw [two men], Simon and Simon’s [younger] brother, Andrew. They were casting their [fishing] net into the lake. They [earned money by] catching [and selling] fish.
Jesu bo baa Gaalile ñinciama kani o bo la Siimo yeni o waaalo Andele. B bo lu bi janbuandi m ñinma nni ki kpaani i jami kelimaa b kuli bo tie jankpaanla i.
17 Then Jesus said to them, “[Just like you have been] gathering fish, come with me and I will [teach] you how to [gather people to become my disciples]” [MET].
Jesu bo yedi'ba: «cua mani ki ŋɔdi nni n baa cedi yi ya co bi niba i»
18 Immediately they abandoned [the work that they were doing with] their nets, and they went with him.
Li yogu li yogu b bo ŋaa b janbuandi ki ŋɔdi.
19 After they had gone on a little further, Jesus saw [two other men], James and James’ [younger] brother, John. They were the sons of [a man named] Zebedee. They were both in a boat mending [fishing] nets.
Jesu n bo cuoni ki juandi waamu o bo la Zebede bila Saaki yeni o waalo San o ñinbiagu nni ki ŋanbidi bi janbuandi
20 As soon as Jesus saw them, he told them that [they should leave their work and to come with him]. So they left their father, [who remained] in the boat with the hired servants, and they went away with Jesus.
Jesus bo yiin'ba ke bi siedi ŋaa b báa Zebede u ñinbiagu nni yeni b tuonsɔntiadi kuli ki ŋua Yesu.
21 [Later] Jesus [and those disciples] arrived at Capernaum [town]. On the next (Sabbath/Jewish rest day), after Jesus had entered (the synagogue/the Jewish meeting place), he began teaching [the people who had gathered there].
Jesu yeni o ŋɔdikaaba bo pundi Kafarnawomi dogu nni saaba daali ki li jaandieli nni ki bangindi yaaba n ye lienn u Tienu ñɔmaama
22 They were continually amazed at the way he taught. [He did] not [just teach what others had taught], like the men who teach the [Jewish] laws did. [They habitually just repeated what other people had taught]. Instead, he taught with [his own] authority.
O bangima bo yaalidi'bi, kelimaa o bo bangi yeni yikodi waa bo bangi 'ba nani li bali maama gbanbanda yeni kaa
23 Suddenly, [while he was teaching], a man [appeared] in their worship place who had an evil spirit in him, and he shouted,
Ke li sua ja ba ye li kani ke i cicili biadi ŋua'o ke o yigini ki maadi:
24 “Jesus, from Nazareth [town, since] we [evil spirits] have nothing in common with you, ([do not interfere with us]!/what do you want with us [evil spirits]?) [RHQ] (Do not destroy us [now]!/Have you come to destroy us [now]?) [RHQ] I know who you are. I know that you are the holy one [who has come] from God!”
Nasaleti Yesutinba yeni fini be yaa po i? A cua ke ŋan biani 'ti yoo oo? N bani ŋan tie yua. A tie u Tienu niŋanmo i.
25 Jesus rebuked [the evil spirit], saying, “Be quiet! And come out [of the man]!”
ke Yesu gaa t naajadi ke maadi: «suoni mani lan kani ki ña o nini»
26 The evil spirit shook the man hard. He screamed loudly, and then he came out of the man [and left].
li yogunu o ja yeni bo jiidi ki baa ke t tagi biidi yeni bua ña ki yigini ki kpandi o nialu.
27 All [the people who were there] were amazed. As a result, they discussed this among themselves, [exclaiming], “(This is [amazing]!/What is this?) [RHQ] Not only does he teach in a new and authoritative way, but also the evil spirits obey him [when] he commands [them]!”
Li bo yaa lidi ya niba bo ye li kani. Ke bi buali bi lieba ne mɔ tie be yo oo? I tundi paani ke o tundi yeni yikodi i. O cedi ke a pola mɔno cɔlni o maama
28 The people very soon told [many others] throughout the whole Galilee district what Jesus [had done].
Lan yognu mɔno ke Yesu yeli doni Gaalile dogu nni.
29 After they left (the synagogue/the Jewish meeting place), [Jesus, Simon and Andrew], along with James and John went directly to Simon and Andrew’s house.
Ban ñani jufi -nba tantaandieli nni ya yogu ke Yesu yen Saaki yeni San gedi Siimo nba deni. Ke li sua ke Simo cuado dua yeni u gbannantongu.
30 Simon’s mother-in-law was lying in bed because she had a [high] fever. Right away someone told Jesus about her [being sick].
Li yogu mɔno ke b maadi wani Yesu li gbannnanbiedi maama
31 He went to her, and helped her up by taking hold of her hand. She recovered [at once] from the fever, and then she [got up and] served them [some food].
Ke Yesu bo cua ki cuo o nugu ki fiini ki sien'o ke ogbannandi sɔngike o fii ki candi'ba.
32 That evening, after the sun had gone down [and restrictions about travel on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day]) [were ended], some people brought to Jesus many people who were sick and others whose lives evil spirits were controlling.
li yenjuogu bi niba bo taa a yiama kuli yeni yaaba ke a pola ŋua'bi ki gedi yen'ba Yesu kani
33 [It seemed as though] everyone [HYP, MTY] [who lived in] the town was gathered at the doorway [of Simon’s house].
ke u dogu nni niba kuli taa ki ye u diñɔbu kani
34 Jesus healed many people who were ill with various diseases. He also expelled many demons [from people]. He did not allow the demons to tell people [about him], because they knew that he [had come from God, and for various reasons he did not want everyone to know that yet].
Ke Yesu paagi yaaba kuli bo yia, ki gɔ beli ki yaani i cicilibiadi. O bo ki cabi i cicilibiadi ke ban maadi mɔno ki dugini b bo bani wan tie yua.
35 Jesus got up very early [the next morning] while it was still dark. He left [the house] and went away [from the town] to a place where there were no people. Then he prayed there.
Yesu yagidi ki fii ki gedi naani ke oba ki ye ki jaan i.
36 Simon and his companions searched for him. When they found him, [wanting him to go back to town to help other people], they said to him,
Ke Siimo yeni o lieba ŋua ki kpaa'o.
37 “[Come back to the town with us, because] many [HYP] people [in Capernaum] are looking for you!”
ki la'o ki maad'o ke bi niba kuli kpaan'o.
38 He said to them, “[No], let’s go on to the neighboring towns in order that I can preach there also, because the reason that I came [into the world] was to [preach to people] in many places!”
ke o maad'ba ya cuoni mani tin gedi u kaantianu. I dingbanbinmu nni ke min pan muandi lan po mo, ki dugini lan po n cedi ke n baa
39 So they went throughout Galilee [district. As they did so, each (Sabbath/Jewish rest day]) he preached in (synagogues/Jewish meeting places). He was also expelling evil spirits [from people].
Lani ke Yesu tɔgini Gaalile digbana kuli nni ki maadi u Tienu laabaaŋanmo jufi -nba tantaan diena nni.
40 [One day] a man who had [a bad skin disease called] leprosy came to Jesus. He knelt down in front of Jesus and then he pleaded with him saying, “[Please heal me, because I know] you are able to heal me if you want to!”
o gbaado bo cua ki gbaani ki mia ki yedi: A ya bua a ba fidi ki paagi n i.
41 Jesus felt very sorry for him. [So he ignored the religious laws about coming close to people who had that disease]. He reached out his hand and touched the man. Then he said to him, “Since I am willing [to heal you], be healed {I heal you} [now]!”
m ninñinma bo cuo Yesu ke tandi o nuugu ki sii'o ki yedi: n bua a agbannu n ŋanbi.
42 Immediately the man was healed! He was no longer a leper!
Ke li yogunu o gbaado bo siedi ki sua o gbanu kuli ŋanbi.
43 Jesus spoke sternly to him before he sent him away.
Ke Yesu maadi ke wan tuodi ki siedi li kani ki kpaa'o
44 What Jesus said was, “Go to a local priest and show yourself to him [in order that he may examine you and verify that you are healed]. Then, [after the priest tells the local people], they will know [that you have been healed, and you will be able to associate with them again]. Make sure that you do not tell others [about what happened] Then go to [Jerusalem and take to the priest what Moses commanded that people who have been healed from leprosy should offer, in order that he] may offer it [as a sacrifice to God].”
ki maadi: cuo a ñɔbu ki daa cedi oba n gbadi. Ama ŋan gedi ki pan waani sala yidikaaba. Ki tien'ba m ŋanbima paalu nani moyisi n bo bili maama ke lan tua bi sieda.»
45 The man went [and presented himself to the priest. But then] he began to tell many people about [how Jesus had healed him] [DOU]. As a result, Jesus was no longer able to enter any town publicly [because the crowds would surround him]. Instead, he remained outside [the towns] in places [where no people lived]. But people kept coming to him from all over that region.
ama oja yeni n ñani ya yogu ke o kpaandi li maama kaan kuli. Lan po n bo cedi ke Yesu ji bo kam fidi kua u dogu nni ya yogu ke bi niba bo la'o. O bo yi ye u dogu kuni naan kan ki ñiana k ye.
