¹And he entered into a ship, and passed over, and came into his own city.

¹በታንኳም ገብቶ ተሻገረና ወደ ገዛ ከተማው መጣ።

²And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.

²እነሆም፥ በአልጋ የተኛ ሽባ ወደ እርሱ አመጡ። ኢየሱስም እምነታቸውን አይቶ ሽባውን። አንተ ልጅ፥ አይዞህ፥ ኃጢአትህ ተሰረየችልህ አለው።

³And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth.

³እነሆም፥ ከጻፎቹ አንዳንዱ በልባቸው። ይህስ ይሳደባል አሉ።

⁴And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?

⁴ኢየሱስም አሳባቸውን አውቆ እንዲህ አለ። ስለ ምን በልባችሁ ክፉ ታስባላችሁ?

⁵For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk?

⁵ኃጢአትህ ተሰረየችልህ ከማለት ወይስ። ተነሣና ሂድ ከማለት ማናቸው ይቀላል?

⁶But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house.

⁶ነገር ግን በምድር ላይ ኃጢአትን ያስተሰርይ ዘንድ ለሰው ልጅ ሥልጣን እንዳለው እንድታውቁ፥ በዚያን ጊዜ ሽባውን። ተነሣ፤ አልጋህን ተሸከምና ወደ ቤትህ ሂድ አለው።

⁷And he arose, and departed to his house.

⁷ተነሥቶም ወደ ቤቱ ሄደ።

⁸But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled, and glorified God, which had given such power unto men.

⁸ሕዝቡም አይተው ተደነቁ፥ ለሰውም እንዲህ ያለ ሥልጣን የሰጠ እግዚአብሔርን አከበሩ።

⁹And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith unto him, Follow me. And he arose, and followed him.

⁹ኢየሱስም ከዚያ አልፎ በመቅረጫው ተቀምጦ የነበረ ማቴዎስ የሚባል አንድ ሰው አየና። ተከተለኝ አለው። ተነሥቶም ተከተለው።

¹⁰And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold, many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his disciples.

¹⁰በቤቱም በማዕድ ተቀምጦ ሳለ፥ እነሆ፥ ብዙ ቀራጮችና ኃጢአተኞች መጥተው ከኢየሱስና ከደቀ መዛሙርቱ ጋር አብረው ተቀመጡ።

¹¹And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why eateth your Master with publicans and sinners?

¹¹ፈሪሳውያንም አይተው ደቀ መዛሙርቱን። መምህራችሁ ከቀራጮችና ከኃጢአተኞች ጋር አብሮ ስለ ምን ይበላል? አሉአቸው።

¹²But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole need not a physician, but they that are sick.

¹²ኢየሱስም ሰምቶ። ሕመምተኞች እንጂ ባለ ጤናዎች ባለ መድኃኒት አያስፈልጋቸውም፤

¹³But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

¹³ነገር ግን ሄዳችሁ። ምሕረትን እወዳለሁ መሥዋዕትንም አይደለም ያለው ምን እንደ ሆነ ተማሩ፤ ኃጢአተኞችን ወደ ንስሐ እንጂ ጻድቃንን ልጠራ አልመጣሁምና አላቸው።

¹⁴Then came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast oft, but thy disciples fast not?

¹⁴በዚያን ጊዜ የዮሐንስ ደቀ መዛሙርት ወደ እርሱ ቀርበው። እኛና ፈሪሳውያን፥ ብዙ ጊዜ የምንጦመው፥ ደቀ መዛሙርትህ ግን የማይጦሙት ስለ ምንድር ነው? አሉት።

¹⁵And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then shall they fast.

¹⁵ኢየሱስም እንዲህ አላቸው። ሚዜዎች ሙሽራው ከእነርሱ ጋር ሳለ ሊያዝኑ ይችላሉን? ነገር ግን ሙሽራው ከእነርሱ የሚወሰድበት ወራት ይመጣል፥ በዚያ ጊዜም ይጦማሉ።

¹⁶No man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the rent is made worse.

¹⁶በአረጀ ልብስ አዲስ እራፊ የሚያኖር የለም፤ መጣፊያው ልብሱን ይቦጭቀዋልና፥ መቀደዱም የባሰ ይሆናል።

¹⁷Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.

¹⁷በአረጀ አቁማዳ አዲስ የወይን ጠጅ የሚያኖር የለም፤ ቢደረግ ግን፥ አቁማዳው ይፈነዳል፥ የወይን ጠጁም ይፈሳል አቁማዳውም ይጠፋል፤ ነገር ግን አዲሱን የወይን ጠጅ በአዲስ አቁማዳ ያኖረዋል፥ ሁለቱም ይጠባበቃሉ።

¹⁸While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.

¹⁸ይህንም ሲነግራቸው፥ አንድ መኰንን መጥቶ። ልጄ አሁን ሞተች፤ ነገር ግን መጥተህ እጅህን ጫንባት፥ በሕይወትም ትኖራለች እያለ ሰገደለት።

¹⁹And Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples.

¹⁹ኢየሱስም ተነሥቶ ከደቀ መዛሙርቱ ጋር ተከተለው።

²⁰And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment:

²⁰እነሆም፥ ከአሥራ ሁለት ዓመት ጀምሮ ደም የሚፈስሳት ሴት በኋላው ቀርባ የልብሱን ጫፍ ዳሰሰች፤

²¹For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole.

²¹በልብዋ። ልብሱን ብቻ የዳሰስሁ እንደ ሆነ፥ እድናለሁ ትል ነበረችና።

²²But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.

²²ኢየሱስም ዘወር ብሎ አያትና። ልጄ ሆይ፥ አይዞሽ፤ እምነትሽ አድኖሻል አላት። ሴቲቱም ከዚያች ሰዓት ጀምራ ዳነች።

²³And when Jesus came into the ruler's house, and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise,

²³ኢየሱስም ወደ መኰንኑ ቤት በደረሰ ጊዜ፥ እምቢልተኞችንና የሚንጫጫውን ሕዝብ አይቶ።

²⁴He said unto them, Give place: for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn.

²⁴ብላቴናይቱ ተኝታለች እንጂ አልሞተችምና ፈቀቅ በሉ አላቸው። በጣምም ሳቁበት።

²⁵But when the people were put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand, and the maid arose.

²⁵ሕዝቡን ግን ከአስወጡ በኋላ ገብቶ እጅዋን ያዛት፥ ብላቴናይቱም ተነሣች።

²⁶And the fame hereof went abroad into all that land.

²⁶ያም ዝና ወደዚያ አገር ሁሉ ወጣ።

²⁷And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, Thou son of David, have mercy on us.

²⁷ኢየሱስም ከዚያ ሲያልፍ ሁለት ዕውሮች። የዳዊት ልጅ ሆይ፥ ማረን ብለው እየጮሁ ተከተሉት።

²⁸And when he was come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith unto them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said unto him, Yea, Lord.

²⁸ወደ ቤትም በገባ ጊዜ ዕውሮቹ ወደ እርሱ ቀረቡ፥ ኢየሱስም። ይህን ማድረግ እንድችል ታምናላችሁን? አላቸው። አዎን፥ ጌታ ሆይ አሉት።

²⁹Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it unto you.

²⁹በዚያን ጊዜ። እንደ እምነታችሁ ይሁንላችሁ ብሎ ዓይኖቻቸውን ዳሰሰ።

³⁰And their eyes were opened; and Jesus straitly charged them, saying, See that no man know it.

³⁰ዓይኖቻቸውም ተከፈቱ።

³¹But they, when they were departed, spread abroad his fame in all that country.

³¹ኢየሱስም። ማንም እንዳያውቅ ተጠንቀቁ ብሎ በብርቱ አዘዛቸው። እነርሱ ግን ወጥተው በዚያ አገር ሁሉ ስለ እርሱ አወሩ።

³²As they went out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed with a devil.

³²እነርሱም ሲወጡ እነሆ፥ ጋኔን ያደረበትን ዲዳ ሰው ወደ እርሱ አመጡ።

³³And when the devil was cast out, the dumb spake: and the multitudes marvelled, saying, It was never so seen in Israel.

³³ጋኔኑንም ካወጣው በኋላ ዲዳው ተናገረ። ሕዝቡም። እንዲህ ያለ በእስራኤል ዘንድ ከቶ አልታየም እያሉ ተደነቁ።

³⁴But the Pharisees said, He casteth out devils through the prince of the devils.

³⁴ፈሪሳውያን ግን። በአጋንንት አለቃ አጋንንትን ያወጣል አሉ።

³⁵And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.

³⁵ኢየሱስም በምኩራቦቻቸው እያስተማረ፥ የመንግሥትንም ወንጌል እየሰበከ፥ በሕዝብም ያለውን ደዌና ሕማም ሁሉ እየፈወሰ፥ በከተማዎችና በመንደሮች ሁሉ ይዞር ነበር።

³⁶But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.

³⁶ብዙ ሕዝብም ባየ ጊዜ፥ እረኛ እንደ ሌላቸው በጎች ተጨንቀው ተጥለውም ነበርና አዘነላቸው።

³⁷Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;

³⁷በዚያን ጊዜ ደቀ መዛሙርቱን። መከሩስ ብዙ ነው፥ ሠራተኞች ግን ጥቂቶች ናቸው፤

³⁸Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.

³⁸እንግዲህ የመከሩን ጌታ ወደ መከሩ ሠራተኞች እንዲልክ ለምኑት አላቸው።
