1 Hayssi Xoossaa Na7aa Yesuus Kiristtoosa Wonggelaa doomethaa.
The beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
2 Nabiya Isayaasi xaafida maxaafan Xoossay, “Hekko, taani ta kiitanchchuwa taani neeppe sinthe yeddana. I ne ogiya giigisana.
As it is written in the prophets, “Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you:
3 Issoy bazzo gidon ba qaala dhoqqu oothidi, ‘Godaa ogiya giigisite; I hamuttana horogaa iyaw suurisite gis’” yaagees.
the voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Make ready the way of the Lord! Make his paths straight!’”
4 Xammaqiya Yohaannisi asaa xammaqishe, “Hintte nagaraappe simmidi xammaqetite; Xoossay hintte nagaraa atto gaana” yaagidi qaala odishe bazzo biittafe yis.
John came baptising in the wilderness and preaching the baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins.
5 Yihuda biittan de7iya asay ubbaynne Yerusalaame katamaa asay ubbay Yohaannisakko yoosona. Bantta nagara paaxin, Yohaannisi entta Yorddaanose Shaafan xammaqees.
All the country of Judea and all those of Jerusalem went out to him. They were baptised by him in the Jordan river, confessing their sins.
6 Yohaannisi gimale ikiseppe dadettida afila ma77ees. Ba xeessan dafo danccees; qassi boolenne degera eessi mees.
John was clothed with camel’s hair and a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey.
7 Yohaannisi qaala odishe, “Taappe guyera daro minneyssi yees. Hari attoshin, taani iya caammaa wodoruwa hokkada billanawu bessike.
He preached, saying, “After me comes he who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen.
8 Taani hinttena haathan xammaqays, shin I hinttena Geeshsha Ayyaanan xammaqana” yaagis.
I baptised you in water, but he will baptise you in the Holy Spirit.”
9 Yesuusi he wode Galiila biittan de7iya Naazirete katamaappe yin, Yohaannisi Yorddaanose Shaafan iya xammaqis.
In those days, Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptised by John in the Jordan.
10 Yesuusi haathaafe keyaa wode saloy dooyettin, Geeshsha Ayyaanay ba bolla holeda wodhdhishin be7is.
Immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens parting and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.
11 Qassi saloppe, “Taani dosiya ta na7ay nena; ta nenan ufayttays” yaagiya qaalay yis.
A voice came out of the sky, “You are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
12 Iira Geeshsha Ayyaanay Yesuusa bazzo biitta efis.
Immediately the Spirit drove him out into the wilderness.
13 Yesuusi bazzo biittan Xalahen paacettishe oytamu gallas gam77is. Do7atara de7is, shin kiitanchchoti yidi iya maaddidosona.
He was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals; and the angels were serving him.
14 Yohaannisi qashettidaappe guye, Yesuusi Xoossaa kawotethaa Wonggelaa odishe Galiila biittaa bis.
Now after John was taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the Good News of God’s Kingdom,
15 Yan, “Wodey gakkis; Xoossaa kawotethay matattis. Hintte nagaraappe simmidi, Wonggelan ammanite” yaagis.
and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and God’s Kingdom is at hand! Repent, and believe in the Good News.”
16 Yesuusi Galiila Abbaa matara aadhdhishe, molo oykkeyssata, Simoonanne iya ishaa Inddiriyasa, bantta gitiya abban yeggeyssata be7is.
Passing along by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew, the brother of Simon, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.
17 Enttako, “Tana kaallite; taani hinttena ase oythu tamaarssana” yaagis.
Jesus said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you into fishers for men.”
18 Entti sohuwara bantta gitiya yeggi aggidi Yesuusa kaallidosona.
Immediately they left their nets, and followed him.
19 Yesuusi guuthi sinthe bidi, nam77u ishata Zabdiyoosa nayta, Yayqoobanne Yohaannisa wogoluwa giddon bantta gitiya giigiseyssata be7is.
Going on a little further from there, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.
20 I entta be7ida mela xeegis. Entti bantta aawa Zabdiyoosa, iya oosanchchotara wogoluwa giddon yeggi aggidi Yesuusa kaallidi bidosona.
Immediately he called them, and they left their father, Zebedee, in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.
21 Entti Qifirnahoome katamaa gelidosona. Sambbaati gelida mela Yesuusi ellesidi Ayhude Woosa Keethi gelidi tamaarsso oykkis.
They went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and taught.
22 Maatara de7iya asada tamaarssesippe attin higge asttamaaretatho tamaarssonna gisho, asay iya timirttiyan malaalettidosona.
They were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes.
23 He wode tuna ayyaanay oykkida issi uray Ayhude Woosa Keethi gelidi ba qaala dhoqqu oothidi,
Immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,
24 “Naazirete Yesuusa, neeni nuuppe ay koyay? Nuna dhayssanaw yadi? Neeni ooneekko ta erays; neeni Xoossaa Geeshshaa gidikkii?” yaagis.
saying, “Ha! What do we have to do with you, Jesus, you Nazarene? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: the Holy One of God!”
25 Yesuusi he tuna ayyaanaa, “Hayza, ha addiyafe keya” gidi kiittis.
Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be quiet, and come out of him!”
26 Tuna ayyaanay uraa daferethidi, waassidi iyappe keyis.
The unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him.
27 Asay ubbay malaalettidi, “Hayssi aybee? Ha uray ba maatan hari attoshin tuna ayyaanatakka kiittees. Entti iyaw kiitettosona; hayssi aybi ooratha timirtte?” gidi, bantta giddon issoy issuwa oychchidosona.
They were all amazed, so that they questioned amongst themselves, saying, “What is this? A new teaching? For with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him!”
28 Yesuusa sunthay ellesidi Galiila biittan de7iya heera ubban keyis.
The report of him went out immediately everywhere into all the region of Galilee and its surrounding area.
29 Yesuusi Ayhude Woosa Keethafe keyidi, Yayqoobaranne Yohaannisara Simoona soonne Inddiriyasa soo bis.
Immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30 Simoona machche aayiya qoxo misha harggada zin77idaaro Yesuusi yaa gakkiya wode iyaw odidosona.
Now Simon’s wife’s mother lay sick with a fever, and immediately they told him about her.
31 I iikko shiiqidi, I kushiya oykkidi, iyo denthi essis. Qoxoynne mishay aggin iya entta mokkasu.
He came and took her by the hand and raised her up. The fever left her immediately, and she served them.
32 Harggida asa ubbaanne tuna ayyaanati oykkida asa ubbaa omarssi away wullidaappe guye, iyaakko ehidosona.
At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all who were sick and those who were possessed by demons.
33 Kataman de7iya asay ubbay he keetha kare shiiqidosona.
All the city was gathered together at the door.
34 Yesuusi dumma dumma harggen oykettida daro asaa pathidi, daro tuna ayyaanata kessis. I ooneekko tuna ayyaanati erida gisho, entta odisonna diggis.
He healed many who were sick with various diseases and cast out many demons. He didn’t allow the demons to speak, because they knew him.
35 Yesuusi wontta guura denddidi, asi baynna bessi bidi, yan Xoossaa woossis.
Early in the morning, while it was still dark, he rose up and went out, and departed into a deserted place, and prayed there.
36 Simooninne iyara de7eyssati iya koyishe bidosona.
Simon and those who were with him searched for him.
37 Entti iya demmidi, “Asay ubbay nena koyees” yaagidosona.
They found him and told him, “Everyone is looking for you.”
38 Yesuusi qassi entta, “He heeran de7iya hara katamata yedhdhite. Taani yiday Wonggelaa odanaw gidiya gisho yankka qaala odanaw bessees” yaagis.
He said to them, “Let’s go elsewhere into the next towns, that I may preach there also, because I came out for this reason.”
39 Ayhude Woosa Keethatan qaala odishenne tuna ayyaanata kessishe, Galiila biitta ubban yuuyis.
He went into their synagogues throughout all Galilee, preaching and casting out demons.
40 Baroy oykkida issi uray Yesuusakko yidi, iya sinthan gulbbatidi, “Neeni koykko tana geeshshanaw dandda7aasa” yaagidi woossis.
A leper came to him, begging him, kneeling down to him, and saying to him, “If you want to, you can make me clean.”
41 Yesuusi iyaw qadhettidi, ba kushiya yeddidi iya bochchidi, “Taani koyays, geeya” yaagis.
Being moved with compassion, he stretched out his hand, and touched him, and said to him, “I want to. Be made clean.”
42 Sohuwara baroy uraa yeddin uray paxis.
When he had said this, immediately the leprosy departed from him and he was made clean.
43 Yesuusi uraa minthi naagisidi kessi yeddis.
He strictly warned him and immediately sent him out,
44 Yesuusi iya, “Nena era, hayssa oodeskka odoppa. Shin bada ne asatethaa kahine bessa. Neeni ha77i geeshshi gididayssa asa erisanaw, Musey kiittida yarshshuwa yarshsha” yaagis.
and said to him, “See that you say nothing to anybody, but go show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing the things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.”
45 Shin uray bidi, guta ubban asa ubbaas odis. Hessa gisho, Yesuusi qoncce keyidi, katama gelanaw dandda7ibeenna. Shin asi baynnason gaxan de7is; qassi asay ubba bessafe iyaakko yoosona.
But he went out, and began to proclaim it much, and to spread about the matter, so that Jesus could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places. People came to him from everywhere.
