¹And they came to the other side of the sea, to the region of the Gadarenes,

¹ወደ ባሕር ማዶም ወደ ጌርጌሴኖን አገር መጡ።

²and he having come forth out of the boat, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

²ከታንኳይቱም በወጣ ጊዜ፥ ርኵስ መንፈስ የያዘው ሰው ከመቃብር ወጥቶ ወዲያው ተገናኘው፤

³who had his dwelling in the tombs, and not even with chains was any one able to bind him,

³እርሱም በመቃብር ይኖር ነበር፥ በሰንሰለትም ስንኳ ማንም ሊያስረው በዚያን ጊዜ አይችልም ነበር፤

⁴because that he many times with fetters and chains had been bound, and pulled in pieces by him had been the chains, and the fetters broken in pieces, and none was able to tame him,

⁴ብዙ ጊዜ በእግር ብረትና በሰንሰለት ይታሰር ነበርና ዳሩ ግን ሰንሰለቱን ይበጣጥስ እግር ብረቱንም ይሰባብር ነበር፥ ሊያሸንፈውም የሚችል አልነበረም፤

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

⁵ሁልጊዜም ሌሊትና ቀን በመቃብርና በተራራ ሆኖ ይጮኽ ነበር ሰውነቱንም በድንጋይ ይቧጭር ነበር።

⁶And, having seen Jesus from afar, he ran and bowed before him,

⁶ኢየሱስንም ከሩቅ ባየ ጊዜ ሮጦ ሰገደለት፥

⁷and having called with a loud voice, he said, `What — to me and to thee, Jesus, Son of God the Most High? I adjure thee by God, mayest thou not afflict me!`

⁷በታላቅ ድምፅም እየጮኸ። የልዑል እግዚአብሔር ልጅ ኢየሱስ ሆይ፥ ከአንተ ጋር ምን አለኝ? እንዳታሠቃየኝ በእግዚአብሔር አምልሃለሁ አለ፤

⁸(for he said to him, `Come forth, spirit unclean, out of the man,`)

⁸አንተ ርኵስ መንፈስ፥ ከዚህ ሰው ውጣ ብሎት ነበርና።

⁹and he was questioning him, `What [is] thy name?` and he answered, saying, `Legion [is] my name, because we are many;`

⁹ስምህ ማን ነው? ብሎ ጠየቀው። ብዙዎች ነንና ስሜ ሌጌዎን ነው አለው፥

¹⁰and he was calling on him much, that he may not send them out of the region.

¹⁰ከአገርም ውጭ እንዳይሰዳቸው አጥብቆ ለመነው።

¹¹And there was there, near the mountains, a great herd of swine feeding,

¹¹በዚያም በተራራ ጥግ ብዙ የእሪያ መንጋ ይሰማራ ነበርና።

¹²and all the demons did call upon him, saying, `Send us to the swine, that into them we may enter;`

¹²ወደ እሪያዎቹ እንድንገባ ስደደን ብለው ለመኑት።

¹³and immediately Jesus gave them leave, and having come forth, the unclean spirits did enter into the swine, and the herd did rush down the steep place to the sea — and they were about two thousand — and they were choked in the sea.

¹³ኢየሱስም ፈቀደላቸው። ርኵሳን መናፍስቱም ወጥተው ወደ እሪያዎቹ ገቡ፥ ሁለት ሺህም የሚያህል መንጋ ከአፋፉ ወደ ባሕር ተጣደፉና በባሕር ሰጠሙ።

¹⁴And those feeding the swine did flee, and told in the city, and in the fields, and they came forth to see what it is that hath been done;

¹⁴እረኞቹም ሸሽተው በከተማውና በአገሩ አወሩ፤ ነገሩም ምን እንደ ሆነ ለማየት መጡ።

¹⁵and they come unto Jesus, and see the demoniac, sitting, and clothed, and right-minded — him having had the legion — and they were afraid;

¹⁵ወደ ኢየሱስም መጡ፥ አጋንንትም ያደሩበትን ሌጌዎንም የነበረበትን ሰው ተቀምጦ ለብሶም ልቡም ተመልሶ አዩና ፈሩ።

¹⁶and those having seen [it], declared to them how it had come to pass to the demoniac, and about the swine;

¹⁶ያዩት ሰዎችም አጋንንት ላደሩበት ሰው የሆነውንና ስለ እሪያዎቹ ተረኩላቸው።

¹⁷and they began to call upon him to go away from their borders.

¹⁷ከአገራቸውም እንዲሄድላቸው ይለምኑት ጀመር።

¹⁸And he having gone into the boat, the demoniac was calling on him that he may be with him,

¹⁸ወደ ታንኳይቱም በገባ ጊዜ አጋንንት አድረውበት የነበረው ሰው ከእርሱ ጋር እንዲኖር ለመነው።

¹⁹and Jesus did not suffer him, but saith to him, `Go away to thy house, unto thine own [friends], and tell them how great things the Lord did to thee, and dealt kindly with thee;

¹⁹ኢየሱስም አልፈቀደለትም፥ ነገር ግን። ወደ ቤትህ በቤተ ሰዎችህ ዘንድ ሄደህ ጌታ እንዴት ያለ ታላቅ ነገር እንዳደረገልህ እንዴትስ እንደ ማረህ አውራላቸው አለው።

²⁰and he went away, and began to proclaim in the Decapolis how great things Jesus did to him, and all were wondering.

²⁰ሄዶም ኢየሱስ እንዴት ያለ ታላቅ ነገር እንዳደረገለት አሥር ከተማ በሚባል አገር ይሰብክ ጀመር፥ ሁሉም ተደነቁ።

²¹And Jesus having passed over in the boat again to the other side, there was gathered a great multitude to him, and he was near the sea,

²¹ኢየሱስም ደግሞ በታንኳይቱ ወደ ማዶ ከተሻገረ በኋላ ብዙ ሰዎች ወደ እርሱ ተሰበሰቡ፥ በባሕርም አጠገብ ነበረ።

²²and lo, there doth come one of the chiefs of the synagogue, by name Jairus, and having seen him, he doth fall at his feet,

²²ኢያኢሮስ የተባለ ከምኵራብ አለቆች አንዱ መጣ፤ ባየውም ጊዜ በእግሩ ላይ ወደቀና።

²³and he was calling upon him much, saying — `My little daughter is at the last extremity — that having come, thou mayest lay on her [thy] hands, so that she may be saved, and she shall live;`

²³ታናሽቱ ልጄ ልትሞት ቀርባለችና እንድትድንና በሕይወት እንድትኖር መጥተህ እጅህን ጫንባት ብሎ አጥብቆ ለመነው።

²⁴and he went away with him. And there was following him a great multitude, and they were thronging him,

²⁴ከእርሱም ጋር ሄደ። ብዙ ሕዝብም ተከተሉት አጋፉትም።

²⁵and a certain woman, having an issue of blood twelve years,

²⁵ከአሥራ ሁለት ዓመትም ጀምሮ ደም የሚፈሳት ሴት ነበረች፥

²⁶and many things having suffered under many physicians, and having spent all that she had, and having profited nothing, but rather having come to the worse,

²⁶ከብዙ ባለ መድኃኒቶችም ብዙ ተሠቃየች፤ ገንዘብዋንም ሁሉ ከስራ ባሰባት እንጂ ምንም አልተጠቀመችም፤

²⁷having heard about Jesus, having come in the multitude behind, she touched his garment,

²⁷የኢየሱስንም ወሬ ሰምታ በስተኋላው በሰዎች መካከል መጥታ ልብሱን ዳሰሰች።

²⁸for she said — `If even his garments I may touch, I shall be saved;`

²⁸ልብሱን ብቻ የዳሰስሁ እንደ ሆነ እድናለሁ ብላለችና።

²⁹and immediately was the fountain of her blood dried up, and she knew in the body that she hath been healed of the plague.

²⁹ወዲያውም የደምዋ ምንጭ ደረቀ ከሥቃይዋም እንደዳነች በሰውነትዋ አወቀች።

³⁰And immediately Jesus having known in himself that out of him power had gone forth, having turned about in the multitude, said, `Who did touch my garments?`

³⁰ወዲያውም ኢየሱስ ከእርሱ ኃይል እንደ ወጣ በገዛ ራሱ አውቆ በሕዝቡ መካከል ዘወር ብሎ። ልብሴን የዳሰሰ ማን ነው? አለ።

³¹and his disciples said to him, `Thou seest the multitude thronging thee, and thou sayest, `Who did touch me!`

³¹ደቀ መዛሙርቱም። ሕዝቡ ሲያጋፉህ እያየህ። ማን ዳሰሰኝ ትላለህን? አሉት።

³²And he was looking round to see her who did this,

³²ይህንም ያደረገችውን ለማየት ዘወር ብሎ ይመለከት ነበር።

³³and the woman, having been afraid, and trembling, knowing what was done on her, came, and fell down before him, and told him all the truth,

³³ሴቲቱ ግን የተደረገላትን ስላወቀች፥ እየፈራች እየተንቀጠቀጠችም፥ መጥታ በፊቱ ተደፋች እውነቱንም ሁሉ ነገረችው።

³⁴and he said to her, `Daughter, thy faith hath saved thee; go away in peace, and be whole from thy plague.`

³⁴እርሱም። ልጄ ሆይ፥ እምነትሽ አድኖሻል፤ በሰላም ሂጂ ከሥቃይሽም ተፈወሽ አላት።

³⁵As he is yet speaking, there come from the chief of the synagogue`s [house, certain], saying — `Thy daughter did die, why still dost thou harass the Teacher?`

³⁵እርሱም ገና ሲናገር ከምኵራብ አለቃው ቤት ዘንድ የመጡት። ልጅህ ሞታለች፤ ስለ ምን መምህሩን አሁን ታደክመዋለህ? አሉት።

³⁶And Jesus immediately, having heard the word that is spoken, saith to the chief of the synagogue, `Be not afraid, only believe.`

³⁶ኢየሱስ ግን የተናገሩትን ቃል አድምጦ ለምኵራቡ አለቃ። እመን ብቻ እንጂ አትፍራ አለው።

³⁷And he did not suffer any one to follow with him, except Peter, and James, and John the brother of James;

³⁷ከጴጥሮስም ከያዕቆብም ከያዕቆብም ወንድም ከዮሐንስ በቀር ማንም እንዲከተለው አልፈቀደም።

³⁸and he cometh to the house of the chief of the synagogue, and seeth a tumult, much weeping and wailing;

³⁸ወደ ምኵራቡ አለቃ ቤትም መጥቶ ሰዎች ሲንጫጩና ሲያለቅሱ ዋይታም ሲያበዙ አየ፤

³⁹and having gone in he saith to them, `Why do ye make a tumult, and weep? the child did not die, but doth sleep;

³⁹ገብቶም። ስለ ምን ትንጫጫላችሁ ታለቅሳላችሁም? ብላቴናይቱ ተኝታለች እንጂ አልሞተችም አላቸው።

⁴⁰and they were laughing at him. And he, having put all forth, doth take the father of the child, and the mother, and those with him, and goeth in where the child is lying,

⁴⁰በጣምም ሳቁበት። እርሱ ግን ሁሉን አስወጥቶ የብላቴናይቱን አባትና እናትም ከእርሱ ጋር የነበሩትንም ይዞ ብላቴናይቱ ወዳለችበት ገባ።

⁴¹and, having taken the hand of the child, he saith to her, `Talitha cumi;` which is, being interpreted, `Damsel (I say to thee), arise.`

⁴¹የብላቴናይቱንም እጅ ይዞ። ጣሊታ ቁሚ አላት፤ ፍችውም አንቺ ብላቴና ተነሽ እልሻለሁ ነው።

⁴²And immediately the damsel arose, and was walking, for she was twelve years [old]; and they were amazed with a great amazement,

⁴²ብላቴናይቱም የአሥራ ሁለት ዓመት ልጅ ነበረችና ወዲያው ቆማ ተመላለሰች። ወዲያውም ታላቅ መገረም ተገረሙ።

⁴³and he charged them much, that no one may know this thing, and he said that there be given to her to eat.

⁴³ይህንም ማንም እንዳያውቅ አጥብቆ አዞአቸው። የምትበላውን ስጡአት አላቸው።
