¹And it came to pass, as the crowd pressed on him to hear the word of God, that he was standing by the lake of Gennesaret:

¹Ary raha nifanizina taminy ny vahoaka mba hihaino ny tenin'Andriamanitra, dia nijanona teo amoron'ny Farihin'i Genesareta Jesosy;

²and he saw two ships standing by the lake, but the fishermen, having come down from them, were washing their nets.

²ary nahita sambokely roa nijanona teo an-tsisin'ny farihy Izy; fa ny mpanarato efa niala taminy ka nanasa ny haratony.

³And getting into one of the ships, which was Simon's, he asked him to draw out a little from the land; and he sat down and taught the crowds out of the ship.

³Ary niditra teo amin'ny sambokely anankiray izay an'i Simona Izy, dia nangataka taminy hihataka kely amin'ny tany. Dia nipetraka teo an-tsambokely Izy ka nampianatra ny vahoaka.

⁴But when he ceased speaking, he said to Simon, Draw out into the deep [water] and let down your nets for a haul.

⁴Ary rehefa nitsahatra niteny Jesosy, dia hoy Izy tamin'i Simona: Mandrosoa ho any amin'ny lalina, dia alatsaho ny haratonareo hahazoana hazandrano.

⁵And Simon answering said to him, Master, having laboured through the whole night we have taken nothing, but at thy word I will let down the net.

⁵Fa Simona namaly ka nanao hoe: Tompoko, mandritra ny alina no efa nikelezanay aina, nefa tsy nahazo na inona na inona; kanefa noho ny teninao; dia halatsako ihany ny harato.

⁶And having done this, they enclosed a great multitude of fishes. And their net broke.

⁶Ary rehefa nataony izany, dia nahazo hazandrano be dia be izy, ka efa nisy triatra ny haratony.

⁷And they beckoned to their partners who were in the other ship to come and help them, and they came, and filled both the ships, so that they were sinking.

⁷Ary izy nanatsika ny namany, izay teo amin'ny sambokely hafa, mba ho avy hanampy azy. Dia avy ireny, ary nofenoiny ny sambokely roa, ka efa saiky nilentika.

⁸But Simon Peter, seeing it, fell at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, Lord.

⁸Ary rehefa hitan'i Simona Petera izany, dia niankohoka tamin'ny tongotr'i Jesosy izy ka nanao hoe: Tompoko, mialà amiko, fa olo-meloka aho.

⁹For astonishment had laid hold on him, and on all those who were with him, at the haul of fishes which they had taken;

⁹Fa talanjona izy sy izay rehetra teo aminy noho ny haben'ny hazan-drano izay azony.

¹⁰and in like manner also on James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Fear not; henceforth thou shalt be catching men.

¹⁰Ary toy izany koa Jakoba sy Jaona, zanak'i Zebedio, izay niombon-draharaha tamin'i Simona. Dia hoy Jesosy tamin'i Simona: Aza matahotra; hatramin'izao ankehitriny izao dia olona kosa no ho azonao.

¹¹And having run the ships on shore, leaving all they followed him.

¹¹Ary rehefa nampiantsona ny sambokeliny teo an-tanety izy, dia nahafoy ny zavatra rehetra ka nanaraka an'i Jesosy.

¹²And it came to pass as he was in one of the cities, that behold, there was a man full of leprosy, and seeing Jesus, falling upon his face, he besought him saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou art able to cleanse me.

¹²Ary raha tao an-tanàna anankiray Jesosy, indro, nisy lehilahy heniky ny habokana: ary nony nahita Azy io, dia niankohoka ka nitaraina taminy hoe: Tompoko, raha mety Hianao, dia mahay manadio ahy.

¹³And stretching forth his hand he touched him, saying, I will; be thou cleansed: and immediately the leprosy departed from him.

¹³Ary Jesosy naninjitra ny tanany, dia nanendry azy ka nanao hoe: Mety Aho; madiova ianao. ry ny habokany niala taminy niaraka tamin'izay.

¹⁴And he enjoined him to tell no one; but go, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing as Moses ordained, for a testimony to them.

¹⁴Ary Jesosy nandrara azy tsy hilaza amin'olona na dia iray akory aza; fa mandehana, hoy Izy, misehoa amin'ny mpisorona, ka manatera ny fanadiovana anao araka ny nandidian'i Mosesy, ho vavolombelona amin'ireo.

¹⁵But the report concerning him was spread abroad still more, and great crowds came together to hear, and to be healed from their infirmities.

¹⁵Fa mainka niely bebe kokoa ny lazany, dia niangona ny vahoaka betsaka hihaino Azy sy hositranina tamin'ny aretiny.

¹⁶And *he* withdrew himself, and was about in the desert [places] and praying.

¹⁶Ary niala teo Izy, dia nitoetra tany an-efitra ka nivavaka.

¹⁷And it came to pass on one of the days, that *he* was teaching, and there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, who were come out of every village of Galilee and Judaea and [out of] Jerusalem; and [the] Lord's power was [there] to heal them.

¹⁷Ary tamin'ny andro anankiray, raha nampianatra Jesosy, dia nipetraka teo ny Fariseo sasany sy ny mpampiana-dalàna, izay efa niala tamin'ny tanàna rehetra any Galilia sy Jodia ary tany Jerosalema; ary ny herin'ny Tompo dia tao aminy mba hahasitranany.

¹⁸And lo, men bringing upon a couch a man who was paralysed; and they sought to bring him in, and put [him] before him.

¹⁸Ary, indro, nisy nitondra lehilahy tamin'ny fandriana, izay mararin'ny paralysisa, ka nitady izay hampidirany sy hametrahany azy teo anatrehany.

¹⁹And not finding what way to bring him in, on account of the crowd, going up on the housetop they let him down through the tiles, with his little couch, into the midst before Jesus.

¹⁹Ary satria tsy nahita izay hampidirany azy izy noho ny habetsahan'ny vahoaka, dia niakatra teo an-tampon-trano ka nanesorany ny tafo tanimanga, dia nampidininy ralehilahy mbamin'ny fandriany ho eo afovoan'ny olona, dia teo anatrehan'i Jesosy.

²⁰And seeing their faith, he said, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.

²⁰Ary raha hitan'i Jesosy ny finoan'ireo, dia hoy Izy: Ralehilahy, voavela ny helokao.

²¹And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason [in their minds], saying, Who is this who speaks blasphemies? Who is able to forgive sins but God alone?

²¹Fa ny mpanora-dalàna sy ny Fariseo niara-nisaina hoe: Iza moa Ity miteny ratsy Ity? Iza no mahavela heloka, afa-tsy Andriamanitra ihany?[Gr. manao blasfemia; izahao Mat. 9.3]

²²But Jesus, knowing their reasonings, answering said to them, Why reason ye in your hearts?

²²Fa Jesosy nahafantatra ny eritreriny, dia namaly ka nanao taminy hoe: Nahoana ianareo no mieritreritra ao am-ponareo?

²³which is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Rise up and walk?

²³Iza moa no moramora kokoa, ny manao hoe va: Voavela ny helokao, sa ny manao hoe: Mitsangàna, ka mandehana?

²⁴But that ye may know that the Son of man has power on earth to forgive sins, he said to the paralysed man, I say to thee, Arise, and take up thy little couch and go to thine house.

²⁴Fa mba ho fantatrareo fa ny Zanak'olona manana fahefana etỳ ambonin'ny tany hamela heloka - dia hoy Izy tamin'ilay mararin'ny paralysisa: Izaho milaza aminao hoe: Mitsangàna, dia betao ny fandrianao, ary modia any an-tranonao.

²⁵And immediately standing up before them, having taken up that whereon he was laid, he departed to his house, glorifying God.

²⁵Ary tamin'izay dia nitsangana teo anatrehan'ny olona izy ka nambeta ny fandriany, dia lasa nody sady nankalaza an'Andriamanitra.

²⁶And astonishment seized all, and they glorified God, and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things to-day.

²⁶Ary talanjona avokoa ny olona rehetra, dia nankalaza an'Andriamanitra sady raiki-tahotra indrindra ka nanao hoe: Efa nahita zavatra mahagaga isika androany.

²⁷And after these things he went forth and saw a tax-gatherer, Levi by name, sitting at the receipt of taxes, and said to him, Follow me.

²⁷Ary rehefa afaka izany, dia nandeha Jesosy ka nahita mpamory hetra atao hoe Levy, nipetraka teo am-pamorian-ketra; dia hoy Izy taminy: Manaraha Ahy.[Izahao Mat. 9,9]

²⁸And having left all, rising up, he followed him.

²⁸Ary nahafoy ny zavatra rehetra izy ka nitsangana, dia nanaraka Azy.

²⁹And Levi made a great entertainment for him in his house, and there was a great crowd of tax-gatherers and others who were at table with them.

²⁹Ary Levy nanao fanasana lehibe tao an-tranony ho an'i Jesosy; ary nisy mpamory hetra maro sy olon-kafa koa, izay niara-nipetraka nihinana teo aminy.

³⁰And their scribes and the Pharisees murmured at his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with tax-gatherers and sinners?

³⁰Fa ny Fariseo sy ny mpanora-dalàna izay teo aminy dia nimonomonona tamin'ny mpianatr'i Jesosy ka nanao hoe: Nahoana ianareo no miara-mihinana sy misotro amin'ny mpamory hetra sy ny mpanota?

³¹And Jesus answering said to them, They that are in sound health have not need of a physician, but those that are ill.

³¹Ary Jesosy namaly ka nanao taminy hoe: Tsy ny finaritra no mila mpanao fanafody, fa ny marary;

³²I am not come to call righteous [persons], but sinful [ones] to repentance.

³²tsy avy hiantso ny marina Aho, fa ny mpanota mba hibebaka.

³³And they said to him, Why do the disciples of John fast often and make supplications, in like manner those also of the Pharisees, but thine eat and drink?

³³Ary hoy izy ireo taminy: Ny mpianatr'i Jaona mifady hanina matetika sy mivavaka, ary ny an'ny Fariseo koa mba tahaka izany ihany, fa ny Anao kosa mihinana sy misotro ihany.

³⁴And he said to them, Can ye make the sons of the bridechamber fast when the bridegroom is with them?

³⁴Ary hoy Jesosy taminy: Mahay mampifady ny havan'ny mpampakatra va ianareo, raha mbola ao aminy ihany ny mpampakatra?

³⁵But days will come when also the bridegroom will have been taken away from them; then shall they fast in those days.

³⁵Fa ho avy ny andro; ary rehefa voaisotra ny mpampakatra hiala aminy, dia amin'izany andro izany vao hifady izy.[Na: Ny andro izay hanesorana]

³⁶And he spoke also a parable to them: No one puts a piece of a new garment upon an old garment, otherwise he will both rend the new, and the piece which is from the new will not suit with the old.

³⁶Ary Izy nanao fanoharana taminy koa nanao hoe: Tsy misy olona mandriatra lamba vaovao hanalany tapa-damba hatampina ny lamba tonta; fa raha izany, dia mahatriatra ny vaovao izy, ary ilay tapa-damba nalaina tamin'ny vaovao dia tsy hifanaraka amin'ny tonta.

³⁷And no one puts new wine into old skins, otherwise the new wine will burst the skins, and it will be poured out, and the skins will be destroyed;

³⁷Ary tsy misy olona manisy divay vaovao no anaty siny hoditra tonta; fa raha izany, ny divay vaovao mahatriatra ny siny hoditra, ka ho raraka ny divay, sady ho simba foana ny siny hoditra;

³⁸but new wine is to be put into new skins, and both are preserved.

³⁸Fa ny divay vaovao dia tsy maintsy hatao ao anaty siny hoditra vaovao.Tsy misy olona, rehefa nisotro ny divay ela, no maniry ny vaovao; fa hoy izy: Ny ela no tsara.[Na: tsaratsara kokoa]

³⁹And no one having drunk old wine [straightway] wishes for new, for he says, The old is better.

³⁹Tsy misy olona, rehefa nisotro ny divay ela, no maniry ny vaovao; fa hoy izy: Ny ela no tsara.[Na: tsaratsara kokoa]
