¹And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.

¹Basi, wakafika katika nchi ya Wagerase, ng'ambo ya ziwa.

²And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

²Mara tu Yesu aliposhuka mashuani, mtu mmoja aliyepagawa na pepo mchafu alitoka makaburini, akakutana naye.

³Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:

³Mtu huyo alikuwa akiishi makaburini wala hakuna mtu aliyeweza tena kumfunga kwa minyororo.

⁴Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.

⁴Mara nyingi walimfunga kwa pingu na minyororo lakini kila mara aliweza kuikata hiyo minyororo na kuzivunja hizo pingu, wala hakuna mtu aliyeweza kumzuia.

⁵And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.

⁵Mchana na usiku alikaa makaburini na milimani akipaaza sauti na kujikatakata kwa mawe.

⁶But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,

⁶Alipomwona Yesu kwa mbali, alimkimbilia, akamwinamia

⁷And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.

⁷akisema kwa sauti kubwa, "Una shauri gani nami, wewe Yesu Mwana wa Mungu aliye juu? Kwa jina la Mungu, nakusihi usinitese!"

⁸For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.

⁸(Alisema hivyo kwa kuwa Yesu alikuwa amemwambia, "Pepo mchafu, mtoke mtu huyu.")

⁹And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.

⁹Basi, Yesu akamwuliza, "Jina lako nani?" Naye akajibu, "Jina langu ni Jeshi, maana sisi tu wengi."

¹⁰And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.

¹⁰Kisha akamsihi Yesu asiwafukuze hao pepo katika nchi ile.

¹¹Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.

¹¹Kulikuwa na kundi kubwa la nguruwe malishoni kwenye mteremko wa mlima.

¹²And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.

¹²Basi, hao pepo wakamsihi, "Utupeleke kwa hao nguruwe, tuwaingie."

¹³And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.

¹³Naye akawaruhusu. Basi, hao pepo wachafu wakatoka, wakawaingia wale nguruwe. Kundi lote la nguruwe wapatao elfu mbili likaporomoka kwenye ule mteremko mkali mpaka ziwani, likatumbukia majini.

¹⁴And they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done.

¹⁴Wachungaji wa hao nguruwe walikimbia, wakatangaza jambo hilo mjini na mashambani. Watu wakafika kuona yaliyotukia.

¹⁵And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.

¹⁵Wakamwendea Yesu, wakamwona na mtu yuleyule aliyekuwa amepagawa na jeshi la pepo ameketi chini, amevaa nguo na ana akili yake sawa, wakaogopa.

¹⁶And they that saw it told them how it befell to him that was possessed with the devil, and also concerning the swine.

¹⁶Watu walishuhudia tukio hilo wakaeleza wengine mambo yaliyompata huyo mtu aliyekuwa amepagawa na pepo na juu ya wale nguruwe.

¹⁷And they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts.

¹⁷Basi, wakaanza kumwomba aondoke katika nchi yao.

¹⁸And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he might be with him.

¹⁸Yesu alipokuwa anapanda mashuani, yule mtu aliyekuwa amepagawa na pepo akamwomba amruhusu kwenda naye.

¹⁹Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.

¹⁹Lakini Yesu akamkatalia. Badala yake akamwambia, "Nenda nyumbani kwa jamaa yako, ukawaambie mambo yote Bwana aliyokutendea na jinsi alivyokuonea huruma."

²⁰And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men did marvel.

²⁰Basi, huyo mtu akaenda, akaanza kutangaza huko Dekapoli mambo yote Yesu aliyomtendea; watu wote wakashangaa.

²¹And when Jesus was passed over again by ship unto the other side, much people gathered unto him: and he was nigh unto the sea.

²¹Yesu alivukia tena upande wa pili wa ziwa kwa mashua. Umati mkubwa wa watu ukakusanyika mbele yake, naye akawa amesimama kando ya ziwa.

²²And, behold, there cometh one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name; and when he saw him, he fell at his feet,

²²Hapo akaja mmojawapo wa maofisa wa sunagogi, jina lake Yairo. Alipomwona Yesu, akajitupa mbele ya miguu yake,

²³And besought him greatly, saying, My little daughter lieth at the point of death: I pray thee, come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be healed; and she shall live.

²³akamsihi akisema, "Binti yangu mdogo ni mgonjwa karibu kufa. Twende tafadhali, ukamwekee mikono yako, apate kupona na kuishi."

²⁴And Jesus went with him; and much people followed him, and thronged him.

²⁴Basi, Yesu akaondoka pamoja naye. Watu wengi sana wakamfuata, wakawa wanamsonga kila upande.

²⁵And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,

²⁵Mmojawapo alikuwa mwanamke mwenye ugonjwa wa kutokwa damu kwa muda wa miaka kumi na miwili.

²⁶And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,

²⁶Mwanamke huyo alikuwa amekwisha sumbuka sana kuwaendea waganga wengi. Na ingawa alikuwa amekwisha tumia mali yake yote, hakupata nafuu bali hali yake ilizidi kuwa mbaya.

²⁷When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.

²⁷Alikuwa amesikia habari za Yesu, na hivyo akaupenya msongamano wa watu kutoka nyuma, akagusa vazi lake.

²⁸For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.

²⁸Alifanya hivyo, maana alijisemea, "Nikigusa tu vazi lake, nitapona."

²⁹And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.

²⁹Mara chemchemi ya damu yake ikakauka, akajisikia mwilini mwake kwamba ameponywa ugonjwa wake.

³⁰And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?

³⁰Yesu alitambua mara kwamba nguvu imemtoka. Basi akaugeukia ule umati wa watu, akauliza, "Nani aliyegusa mavazi yangu?"

³¹And his disciples said unto him, Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me?

³¹Wanafunzi wake wakamjibu, "Unaona jinsi watu wanavyokusonga; mbona wauliza nani aliyekugusa?"

³²And he looked round about to see her that had done this thing.

³²Lakini Yesu akaendelea kutazama amwone huyo aliyefanya hivyo.

³³But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.

³³Hapo huyo mwanamke, akifahamu yaliyompata, akajitokeza akitetemeka kwa hofu, akajitupa chini mbele ya Yesu na kusema ukweli wote.

³⁴And he said unto her, Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague.

³⁴Yesu akamwambia, "Binti, imani yako imekuponya. Nenda kwa amani, upone kabisa ugonjwa wako."

³⁵While he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the synagogue's house certain which said, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest thou the Master any further?

³⁵Yesu alipokuwa bado anaongea, watu walifika kutoka nyumbani kwa yule ofisa wa sunagogi, wakamwambia, "Binti yako amekwisha kufa. Ya nini kuendelea kumsumbua Mwalimu?"

³⁶As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe.

³⁶Lakini, bila kujali walichosema, Yesu akamwambia mkuu wa sunagogi, "Usiogope, amini tu."

³⁷And he suffered no man to follow him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother of James.

³⁷Wala hakumruhusu mtu yeyote kufuatana naye ila Petro, Yakobo na Yohane nduguye Yakobo.

³⁸And he cometh to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and seeth the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly.

³⁸Wakafika nyumbani kwa ofisa wa sunagogi naye Yesu akasikia makelele, kilio na maombolezo mengi.

³⁹And when he was come in, he saith unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleepeth.

³⁹Akaingia ndani, akawaambia, "Mbona mnapiga kelele na kulia? Msichana hakufa, amelala tu."

⁴⁰And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and entereth in where the damsel was lying.

⁴⁰Lakini wao wakamcheka. Basi, akawaondoa wote nje, akawachukua baba na mama ya huyo msichana na wale wanafunzi wake, wakaingia chumbani alimokuwa huyo msichana.

⁴¹And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto thee, arise.

⁴¹Kisha akamshika mkono, akamwambia, "Talitha, kumi," maana yake, "Msichana, nakwambia, amka!"

⁴²And straightway the damsel arose, and walked; for she was of the age of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great astonishment.

⁴²Mara msichana akasimama, akaanza kutembea. (Alikuwa na umri wa miaka kumi na miwili.) Hapo watu wakashangaa kupita kiasi.

⁴³And he charged them straitly that no man should know it; and commanded that something should be given her to eat.

⁴³Yesu akawakataza sana wasimjulishe mtu jambo hilo. Kisha akawaambia wampe huyo msichana chakula.
