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

¹And it came to pass, in the multitude pressing on him to hear the word of God, that he was standing beside the lake of Gennesaret,

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

²and he saw two boats standing beside the lake, and the fishers, having gone away from them, were washing the nets,

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.

³and having entered into one of the boats, that was Simon`s, he asked him to put back a little from the land, and having sat down, was teaching the multitudes out of the boat.

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

⁴And when he left off speaking, he said unto Simon, `Put back to the deep, and let down your nets for a draught;`

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.

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

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

⁶And having done this, they enclosed a great multitude of fishes, and their net was breaking,

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.

⁷and they beckoned to the partners, who [are] in the other boat, having come, to help them; and they came, and filled both the boats, so that they were sinking.

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.

⁸And Simon Peter having seen, fell down at the knees of Jesus, saying, `Depart from me, because I am a sinful man, O lord;`

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

⁹for astonishment seized him, and all those with him, at the draught of the fishes that they took,

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.

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

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

¹¹and they, having brought the boats upon the land, having left all, did follow him.

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.

¹²And it came to pass, in his being in one of the cities, that lo, a man full of leprosy, and having seen Jesus, having fallen on [his] face, he besought him, saying, `Sir, if thou mayest will, thou art able to cleanse me;`

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

¹³and having stretched forth [his] hand, he touched him, having said, `I will; be thou cleansed;` and immediately the leprosy went away from him.

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.

¹⁴And he charged him to tell no one, `But, having gone away, shew thyself to the priest, and bring near for thy cleansing according as Moses directed, for a testimony to them;`

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

¹⁵but the more was the report going abroad concerning him, and great multitudes were coming together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities,

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

¹⁶and he was withdrawing himself in the desert places and was praying.

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.

¹⁷And it came to pass, on one of the days, that he was teaching, and there were sitting by Pharisees and teachers of the Law, who were come out of every village of Galilee, and Judea, and Jerusalem, and the power of the Lord was — to heal them.

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

¹⁸And lo, men bearing upon a couch a man, who hath been struck with palsy, and they were seeking to bring him in, and to place before him,

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.

¹⁹and not having found by what way they may bring him in because of the multitude, having gone up on the house-top, through the tiles they let him down, with the little couch, into the midst before Jesus,

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

²⁰and he having seen their faith, said to him, `Man, thy sins have been forgiven thee.`

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]

²¹And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, `Who is this that doth speak evil words? who is able to forgive sins, except God only?`

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

²²And Jesus having known their reasonings, answering, said unto them, `What reason ye in your hearts?

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

²³which is easier — to say, Thy sins have been forgiven thee? or to say, Arise, and walk?

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.

²⁴`And that ye may know that the Son of Man hath authority upon the earth to forgive sins — (he said to the one struck with palsy) — I say to thee, Arise, and having taken up thy little couch, be going on to thy house.`

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

²⁵And presently having risen before them, having taken up [that] on which he was lying, he went away to his house, glorifying God,

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

²⁶and astonishment took all, and they were glorifying God, and were filled with fear, saying — `We saw strange things to-day.`

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]

²⁷And after these things he went forth, and beheld a tax-gatherer, by name Levi, sitting at the tax-office, and said to him, `Be following me;`

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

²⁸and he, having left all, having arisen, did follow him.

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.

²⁹And Levi made a great entertainment to him in his house, and there was a great multitude of tax-gatherers and others who were with them reclining (at meat),

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?

³⁰and the scribes and the Pharisees among them were murmuring at his disciples, saying, `Wherefore with tax-gatherers and sinners do ye eat and drink?`

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

³¹And Jesus answering said unto them, `They who are well have no need of a physician, but they that are ill:

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

³²I came not to call righteous men, but sinners, to reformation.`

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.

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

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

³⁴And he said unto them, `Are ye able to make the sons of the bride-chamber — in the bridegroom being with them — to fast?

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]

³⁵but days will come, and, when the bridegroom may be taken away from them, then they shall fast in those days.`

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.

³⁶And he spake also a simile unto them — `No one a patch of new clothing doth put on old clothing, and if otherwise, the new also doth make a rent, and with the old the patch doth not agree, that [is] from the new.

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;

³⁷`And no one doth put new wine into old skins, and if otherwise, the new wine will burst the skins, and itself will be poured out, and the skins will be destroyed;

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]

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

³⁹Tsy 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], doth immediately wish new, for he saith, The old is better.`
