Mark 4
1 Again he began to teach by the seaside. A great multitude was gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat in the sea and sat down. All the multitude were on the land by the sea.
Jesus el sifilpa luti sisken Lulu Galilee. Mwet puspis tukeni nu yorol we, ouinge el sroak nu fin soko oak ac muta fac in kof uh, ac mwet uh tu weacn uh.
2 He taught them many things in parables, and told them in his teaching,
El luti ma puspis nu selos ke kas in pupulyuk, ac fahk ouinge:
3 “Listen! Behold, the farmer went out to sow.
“Porongo! Tuh oasr sie mwet som in taknelik fiten wheat.
4 As he sowed, some seed fell by the road, and the birds came and devoured it.
Ac ke el sisalik fita inima uh, kutu putatla nu pe inkanek uh, ac won uh tuku ac kangla.
5 Others fell on the rocky ground, where it had little soil, and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of soil.
Kutu pac putati nu yen eoteot, yen ma srikla fohk we. Fita inge sa na in srunak mweyen fohk we suloal.
6 When the sun had risen, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
Na ke fulen faht uh sreya elos uli, ac ke sripen oka uh tia kapla in loal pwanang sa na in masla.
7 Others fell amongst the thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
Ac kutu fita uh putatla nu in fohk ma oasr okan kokul we, ac kokul uh kapak ac kupoiya, oru sacn uh tia ku in fokla.
8 Others fell into the good ground and yielded fruit, growing up and increasing. Some produced thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times as much.”
Tuh kutu fita uh putatla nu in fohk wo ac srunak ac kapak arulana wo, ac fokla: fokin kutu tolngoul, fokin kutu onngoul, ac fokin kutu siofok.”
9 He said, “Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.”
Ac Jesus el fahk, “Ke ma inge, kowos porongo fin oasr srewos!”
10 When he was alone, those who were around him with the twelve asked him about the parables.
Ac ke Jesus el mukena muta, mwet tumal lutlut ac kutu sin mwet su lohng mwe luti lal elos tuku nu yorol ac siyuk elan akkalemye kalmen pupulyuk lal ah.
11 He said to them, “To you is given the mystery of God’s Kingdom, but to those who are outside, all things are done in parables,
El topuk nu selos, “Itukot nu suwos in etu ma lukma ke Tokosrai lun God. A elos su muta sayowos, elos lohng ke pusren pupulyuk mukena.
12 that ‘seeing they may see and not perceive, and hearing they may hear and not understand, lest perhaps they should turn again, and their sins should be forgiven them.’”
Ouinge, in oana ma simla, ‘Elos ac liye na liye A tia akilen; Ac elos ac lohng na lohng A tia etu. Mweyen elos fin etu, elos ac ku in forla nu sin God, Na ku in nunak munas nu selos.’”
13 He said to them, “Don’t you understand this parable? How will you understand all of the parables?
Na Jesus el siyuk selos, “Ya kowos tia kalem ke pupulyuk se inge? Na kowos ac etu fuka pupulyuk nukewa saya?
14 The farmer sows the word.
Mwet taknelik el taknelik kas lun God.
15 The ones by the road are the ones where the word is sown; and when they have heard, immediately Satan comes and takes away the word which has been sown in them.
Kutu mwet uh oana fita ma putatla pe inkanek uh. Ke pacl se na elos lohng kas uh, Satan el tuku ac eisla lukelos.
16 These in the same way are those who are sown on the rocky places, who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with joy.
Kutu mwet uh oana fita ma putatla yen eoteot uh. Ke pacl se na elos lohng kas uh, elos sa na in eis ac insewowo kac.
17 They have no root in themselves, but are short-lived. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately they stumble.
Tusruktu tiana sremla wo in nunak lalos pwanang ac tiana oan paht. Ouinge ke pacl mwe lokoalok ac mwe ongoiya sikyak ke sripen kas inge, elos ac sa na in fuhleak.
18 Others are those who are sown amongst the thorns. These are those who have heard the word,
Kutu mwet uh oana fita ma putati yen ma oasr okan kokul we. Elos inge pa mwet su lohng kas uh,
19 and the cares of this age, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful. (aiōn g165)
tusruktu elos nunkala yohk ke moul lun faclu, ac lungse mwe kasrup, ac mwel ma puspis saya, na ma inge kupoiya kas uh, na elos tia isus fahko. (aiōn g165)
20 Those which were sown on the good ground are those who hear the word, accept it, and bear fruit, some thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times.”
Tusruktu, kutu mwet uh oana fita ma putati fin fohk wo uh. Elos lohng kas, ac eis, ac isus fahko: kutu pacl tolngoul, kutu pacl onngoul, ac kutu pacl siofok.”
21 He said to them, “Is a lamp brought to be put under a basket or under a bed? Isn’t it put on a stand?
Jesus el sifil tafwela ac fahk, “Ya nu oasr mwet akosak sie lam ac usak filiya ye tup uh ku ye bed uh? Ya el ac tia filiya fin sukan lam uh?
22 For there is nothing hidden except that it should be made known, neither was anything made secret but that it should come to light.
Kutena ma su wikla ac fah ikakla lemtulauk, ac ma nukewa ma afyufi ac fah ikakelik.
23 If any man has ears to hear, let him hear.”
Kuwos in porongo, fin oasr srewos.”
24 He said to them, “Take heed what you hear. With whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you; and more will be given to you who hear.
El oayapa fahk nu selos, “Kowos porongo akwoye ma kowos lohng uh! Tuh kutena mwe srikasrak kowos orekmakin in sang nununku mwet uh, God El ac fah orekmakin in sang nununkekowos, tusruktu ku pac in upa liki.
25 For whoever has, to him more will be given; and he who doesn’t have, even that which he has will be taken away from him.”
Mwet su oasr ma lal, fah itukyang pac kutu nu sel; a el su wangin ma lal, finne ma srisrik ma oan yorol, ac fah itukla lukel!”
26 He said, “God’s Kingdom is as if a man should cast seed on the earth,
Na Jesus el sifilpa fahk, “Tokosrai lun God oana ke sie mwet el sisalik fita inima lal.
27 and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should spring up and grow, though he doesn’t know how.
Na el ac motul ke fong uh ac ngetnget ke len uh, ac fita uh srunak ac kapak na, tusruktu mwet sac tiana etu lah fuka tuh sikyak ouinge.
28 For the earth bears fruit by itself: first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.
Fohk uh sifacna oru fita uh in kapak ac isus fahko. Ma se sikyak meet uh pa srun, na fah ung mangosr tuku toko, na saflaiya fokla ung in wheat uh.
29 But when the fruit is ripe, immediately he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.”
Ke pacl se matula wheat uh, mwet sac el ac pakela ke mitmit natul uh, mweyen sun pacl in kosrani.”
30 He said, “How will we liken God’s Kingdom? Or with what parable will we illustrate it?
Na Jesus el fahk, “Mea kut ac luma Tokosrai lun God nu kac uh? Mwe pupulyuk fuka kut ku in sang akkalemye uh?
31 It’s like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, though it is less than all the seeds that are on the earth,
Ac fah ouinge: sie mwet el eis sie fiten mustard, fita se ma srik emeet fin faclu, ac el yukwiya infohk uh.
32 yet when it is sown, grows up and becomes greater than all the herbs, and puts out great branches, so that the birds of the sky can lodge under its shadow.”
Na tok fita sac kapak ac yohk liki sacn nukewa. Lesak kac uh matol, pwanang won yen engyeng uh elos tuku ac oru ahng lalos olo ac muta ye lulin sak uh.”
33 With many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear it.
Ke Jesus el fahkak kas lun God nu sin mwet uh, el orekmakin kas in pupulyuk puspis pac saya oana inge. El luti nu selos fal nu ke lupan ma elos ku in kalem kac.
34 Without a parable he didn’t speak to them; but privately to his own disciples he explained everything.
El ac tia kaskas nu selos el fin tia orekmakin pupulyuk; tusruktu pacl ma el ac mukena muta yurin mwet tumal lutlut uh, el ac aketeya ma nukewa nu selos.
35 On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let’s go over to the other side.”
Ke eku in len sacna, Jesus el fahk nu sin mwet tumal lutlut, “Kut som nu lefahlo.”
36 Leaving the multitude, they took him with them, even as he was, in the boat. Other small boats were also with him.
Ouinge elos som liki un mwet uh. Mwet tumal lutlut elos sroang nu fin oak soko ma Jesus el muta fac ah, ac elos tukeni kalot. Oasr pac oak saya welulos som.
37 A big wind storm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so much that the boat was already filled.
Tia pact na eng na upa se tuhyak ac noa uh fungulya oak uh, ac oak uh apkuran in moti.
38 He himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him up and asked him, “Rabbi, don’t you care that we are dying?”
Jesus el motul ke kapin oak uh, ac ilung ilul se. Mwet tumal lutlut elos oaksalak ac fahk, “Mwet Luti, ya wanginna sum lah kut ac misa?”
39 He awoke and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” The wind ceased and there was a great calm.
Jesus el tukakek ac kai eng uh, “Misla!” Ac el fahk pac nu sin noa uh, “Tui!” Na eng uh wanginla, ac arulana mihsi.
40 He said to them, “Why are you so afraid? How is it that you have no faith?”
Na Jesus el fahk nu sin mwet tumal lutlut. “Efu kowos ku sangeng? Ya srakna wangin lulalfongi lowos?”
41 They were greatly afraid and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?”
A elos arulana sangeng ac fahk nu sin sie sin sie, “Mwet se su mwet se inge? Finne eng uh ac noa uh elos aksol pac!”
