¹Zvino wakapindazve musinagoge, zvino kwakange kune munhuko wakange ane ruoko rwakawonyana.

¹He entered again into the synagogue, and there was a man there who had his hand withered.

²Zvino vakamutarisisa kuona kana angamuporesa nesabata, kuti vamupomere.

²They watched him, whether he would heal him on the Sabbath day, that they might accuse him.

³Zvino akati kumunhu waiva neruoko rwakawonyana: Simuka uende pakati.

³He said to the man who had his hand withered, “Stand up.”

⁴Akati kwavari: Zviri pamutemo here kuita zvakanaka nemasabata, kana kuita zvakaipa? Kuponesa upenyu, kana kuuraya? Asi vakanyarara.

⁴He said to them, “Is it lawful on the Sabbath day to do good, or to do harm? To save a life, or to kill?” But they were silent.

⁵Zvino wakati aringa-ringa kwavari, nekutsamwa, ane shungu nekuda kwekuoma kwemoyo wavo, akati kumunhu: Tambanudza ruoko rwako. Akatambanudza ruoko rwake rwukaporeswa rwukagwinya serumwe.

⁵When he had looked around at them with anger, being grieved at the hardening of their hearts, he said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out, and his hand was restored as healthy as the other.

⁶VaFarisi vakabuda pakarepo vakarangana nevaHerodhe pamusoro pake kuti vangamuparadza sei.

⁶The Pharisees went out, and immediately conspired with the Herodians against him, how they might destroy him.

⁷Zvino Jesu akabva nevadzidzi vake vakaenda kugungwa; chaunga chikuru chikamutevera chichibva Garirea, nekuJudhiya,

⁷Jesus withdrew to the sea with his disciples, and a great multitude followed him from Galilee, from Judea,

⁸nekuJerusarema, nekuIdhumeya, nemhiri kwaJoridhani, nevakapoteredza Tire neSidhoni, chaunga chikuru, vakati vanzwa makuriro ezvinhu zvaanoita vakauya kwaari.

⁸from Jerusalem, from Idumaea, beyond the Jordan, and those from around Tyre and Sidon. A great multitude, hearing what great things he did, came to him.

⁹Akataura kuvadzidzi vake kuti igwa duku rimugarire nekuda kwechaunga, kuti varege kumutsikirira.

⁹He spoke to his disciples that a little boat should stay near him because of the crowd, so that they wouldn’t press on him.

¹⁰Nekuti wakange aporesa vazhinji zvekuti vaiwira pamusoro pake kuti vamubate vose vakange vane zvirwere.

¹⁰For he had healed many, so that as many as had diseases pressed on him that they might touch him.

¹¹Nemweya yetsvina, payakamuona yakawira pasi pamberi pake, ikadanidzira ichiti: Imwi muri Mwanakomana waMwari.

¹¹The unclean spirits, whenever they saw him, fell down before him, and cried, “You are the Son of God!”

¹²Akairairisa zvikuru kuti irege kumubudisa pachena.

¹²He sternly warned them that they should not make him known.

¹⁴Akagadza gumi nevaviri, kuti vave naye, nekuti avatume kunoparidza,

¹⁴He appointed twelve, that they might be with him, and that he might send them out to preach,

¹⁵uye vave nesimba rekuporesa zvirwere nekubudisa madhimoni.

¹⁵and to have authority to heal sicknesses and to cast out demons:

¹⁶NaSimoni akamutumidza zita rinonzi Petro,

¹⁶Simon, to whom he gave the name Peter;

¹⁷naJakobho waZebhedhi, naJohwani munin'ina waJakobho; akavatumidza mazita anonzi Bowanegesi, ndokuti, vanakomana vekutinhira;

¹⁷James the son of Zebedee; John, the brother of James, and he surnamed them Boanerges, which means, Sons of Thunder;

¹⁸naAndiriya, naFiripi, naBhatoromiyo, naMatewu, naTomasi, naJakobho waArifiyosi, naTadhiyo, naSimoni muKenani,

¹⁸Andrew; Philip; Bartholomew; Matthew; Thomas; James, the son of Alphaeus; Thaddaeus; Simon the Zealot;

¹⁹naJudhasi Isikariyoti, iyewo wakamutengesa. Ndokubva vapinda mumba.

¹⁹and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him. He came into a house.

²⁰Chaunga chikaunganazve zvekuti vakange vasingagoni kana kudya chingwa.

²⁰The multitude came together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread.

²¹Vekwake vakati vachizvinzwa vakabuda kunomubata; nekuti vakati: Unopenga.

²¹When his friends heard it, they went out to seize him: for they said, “He is insane.”

²²Nevanyori vakaburuka vachibva kuJerusarema vakati: Una Bheerizebhuri, nekuti: Unobudisa madhimoni nemutungamiriri wemadhimoni.

²²The scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, “He has Beelzebul,” and, “By the prince of the demons he casts out the demons.”

²³Zvino akavadanira kwaari, akati kwavari nemifananidzo: Satani ungagona kubudisa Satani sei?

²³He summoned them, and said to them in parables, “How can Satan cast out Satan?

²⁴Kana ushe hwakapesana hwuchimirisana, ushe uhwo hahungagoni kumira.

²⁴ If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.

²⁵Kana imba yakapesana ichimirisana, imba iyo haigoni kumira.

²⁵ If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.

²⁶Uye kana Satani achizvimukira, akapesana, haangagoni kumira, asi unopera.

²⁶ If Satan has risen up against himself, and is divided, he can’t stand, but has an end.

²⁷Hakuna ungagona kupinda mumba mehamburamakaka, akapamba nhumbi dzayo, kunze kwekuti atanga kusunga hamburamakaka, ndokuzopamba imba yayo.

²⁷ But no one can enter into the house of the strong man to plunder, unless he first binds the strong man; and then he will plunder his house.

²⁸Zvirokwazvo ndinoti kwamuri: Zvivi zvose zvichakangamwirwa kuvanakomana vevanhu, nekunyomba kose kwavanonyomba nako;

²⁸ Most certainly I tell you, all sins of the descendants of man will be forgiven, including their blasphemies with which they may blaspheme;

²⁹asi ani nani unonyomba achipikisa Mweya Mutsvene haana kangamwiro narinhi asi une mhosva yekutongwa kusingaperi.

²⁹ but whoever may blaspheme against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin”

³⁰Nekuti vakati: Une mweya wetsvina.

³⁰—because they said, “He has an unclean spirit.”

³¹Zvino kwakauya vanin'ina namai vake, vakamira kunze, vakatumira nhume kwaari vachimudana.

³¹His mother and his brothers came, and standing outside, they sent to him, calling him.

³²Chaunga chakange chigere chakamukomba; vakati kwaari: Tarirai, mai venyu nevanin'ina venyu vari panze vanokutsvakai.

³²A multitude was sitting around him, and they told him, “Behold, your mother, your brothers, and your sisters TR omits “your sisters” are outside looking for you.”

³³Akavapindura achiti: Mai vangu ndiani kana vanin'ina vangu?

³³He answered them, “Who are my mother and my brothers?”

³⁴Zvino akaringa-ringa kupoteredza avo vakange vagere vakamukomba akati: Tarirai mai vangu nevanin'ina vangu.
