1Zvino kwakaunganira kwaari vaFarisi nevamwe vevanyori vaibva kuJerusarema;
1Then the Pharisees, and some of the scribes gathered together to him, having come from Jerusalem.
2vakati vaona vamwe vevadzidzi vake vachidya zvingwa nemaoko ane tsvina, ndiko kuti asina kushambwa, vakasvora.
2Now when they saw some of his disciples eating bread with defiled, that is, unwashed, hands, they found fault.
3Nekuti vaFarisi, nevaJudha vose, havadyi kunze kwekuti vashamba maoko kwazvo, vachibatirira tsika dzevakuru.
3(For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, don’t eat unless they wash their hands and forearms, holding to the tradition of the elders.
4Kana vachibva pamusika, kunze kwekuti vashamba, havadyi; nezvimwe zvinhu zvizhinji zviripo zvavakange vagamuchira kuti vazvichengete, zvinoti: Kusuka mikombe, nehari, nemidziyo yendarira, nenhovo.
4They don’t eat when they come from the marketplace, unless they bathe themselves, and there are many other things, which they have received to hold to: washings of cups, pitchers, bronze vessels, and couches.)
5Ipapo vaFarisi nevanyori vakamubvunza, vachiti: Nemhaka yei vadzidzi venyu vasingafambi netsika yevakuru, asi vanodya chingwa nemaoko asina kushambwa?
5The Pharisees and the scribes asked him, “Why don’t your disciples walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat their bread with unwashed hands?”
6Asi wakapindura akati kwavari: Isaya wakaporofita zvakanaka pamusoro penyu imwi vanyepedzeri, sezvazvakanyorwa, zvichinzi: Zera iri rinondikudza nemiromo, asi moyo wavo uri kure neni.
6He answered them, “Well did Isaiah prophesy of you hypocrites, as it is written, ‘This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
7Asi vanondinamata pasina, vachidzidzisa dzidziso, dziri mirairo yevanhu.
7 But in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’ Isaiah 29:13
8Nekuti munosiya mirairo yaMwari, muchibatirira tsika yevanhu, sekusuka hari nemikombe, nezvimwe zvizhinji zvakadaro munozviita.
8 “For you set aside the commandment of God, and hold tightly to the tradition of men—the washing of pitchers and cups, and you do many other such things.”
9Zvino akati kwavari: Munoramba nemazvo murairo waMwari, kuti muchengete tsika yenyu.
9He said to them, “Full well do you reject the commandment of God, that you may keep your tradition.
10Nekuti Mozisi wakati: Kudza baba vako namai vako; uye: Unotuka baba kana mai, unofanira kufa rufu.
10 For Moses said, ‘Honor your father and your mother;’ Exodus 20:12; Deuteronomy 5:16 and, ‘He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him be put to death.’ Exodus 21:17; Leviticus 20:9
11Asi imwi munoti: Kana munhu achiti kuna baba kana mai: Chinhu chipi nechipi chamunobatsirwa nacho neni "iKorbani*", ndokuti chipo kuna Mwari,
11 But you say, ‘If a man tells his father or his mother, “Whatever profit you might have received from me is Corban Corban is a Hebrew word for an offering devoted to God. , that is to say, given to God”;’
12hamuchamutenderi kuitira baba vake kana mai vake chinhu,
12 then you no longer allow him to do anything for his father or his mother,
13muchishayisa shoko raMwari maturo netsika dzenyu dzamunogamuchidzana; nezvinhu zvizhinji zvakadaro munozviita.
13 making void the word of God by your tradition, which you have handed down. You do many things like this.”
14Zvino wakati adanira kwaari chaunga chose akati kwavari: Nditeererei mose, munzwisise.
14He called all the multitude to himself, and said to them, “Hear me, all of you, and understand.
15Hapana chinhu chinobva kunze kwemunhu chinopinda maari chingamusvibisa; asi zvinhu zvinobuda maari, ndizvo zvinosvibisa munhu.
15 There is nothing from outside of the man, that going into him can defile him; but the things which proceed out of the man are those that defile the man.
16Kana aripo ane nzeve dzekunzwa, ngaanzwe.
16 If anyone has ears to hear, let him hear!”
17Zvino wakati apinda mumba achibva kuchaunga, vadzidzi vake vakamubvunza pamusoro pemufananidzo.
17When he had entered into a house away from the multitude, his disciples asked him about the parable.
18Akati kwavari: Saizvozvo nemwi hamunzwisisi here? Hamunzwisisi here kuti chose chinobva kunze chichipinda mumunhu hachigoni kumusvibisa?
18He said to them, “Are you thus without understanding also? Don’t you perceive that whatever goes into the man from outside can’t defile him,
19Nekuti hachipindi mumoyo make, asi mudumbu; chichibuda kunze, achinatsa zvikafu zvose.
19 because it doesn’t go into his heart, but into his stomach, then into the latrine, thus purifying all foods or, making all foods clean ?”
20Ndokubva ati: Icho chinobuda mumunhu, ndicho chinosvibisa munhu.
20He said, “That which proceeds out of the man, that defiles the man.
21Nekuti kubva mukati mumoyo wevanhu munobuda mifungo yakaipa, upombwe, ufeve, umhondi,
21 For from within, out of the hearts of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, sexual sins, murders, thefts,
22umbavha, ruchiva, kuipa, kunyengera, meso-meso, ziso rakaipa, kunyomba, kuzvikudza, upenzi;
22 covetings, wickedness, deceit, lustful desires, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, and foolishness.
23zvose zvinhu izvi zvakaipa zvinobva mukati, zvichisvibisa munhu.
23 All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.”
24Zvino kubva ipapo wakasimuka akaenda kumiganhu yeTire neSidoni; akapinda mumba, asingadi kuti pave neunozviziva, asi akakoniwa kuvanzika.
24From there he arose, and went away into the borders of Tyre and Sidon. He entered into a house, and didn’t want anyone to know it, but he couldn’t escape notice.
25Nekuti mukadzi, waiva nemukunda muduku wakange ane mweya wetsvina, wakanzwa nezvake, akauya akawira patsoka dzake.
25For a woman, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, having heard of him, came and fell down at his feet.
26Uye mukadzi waiva muGiriki, muSirofenike pachizvarwa; akamukumbirisa kuti abudise dhimoni pamukunda wake.
26Now the woman was a Greek, a Syrophoenician by race. She begged him that he would cast the demon out of her daughter.
27Asi Jesu akati kwaari: Regai vana vatange kuguta, nekuti hazvina kunaka kutora chingwa chevana, ndokukandira kuimbwanana.
27But Jesus said to her, “Let the children be filled first, for it is not appropriate to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.”
28Akapindura akati kwaari: Hongu, Ishe; kunyange nembwanana dziri pasi petafura dzinodya zvezvimedu zvevana.
28But she answered him, “Yes, Lord. Yet even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.”
29Akati kwaari: Nekuda kweshoko iri, enda; dhimoni rabva pamukunda wako.
29He said to her, “For this saying, go your way. The demon has gone out of your daughter.”
30Akabva akaenda kumba kwake, akawana dhimoni rabuda, mukunda avete panhovo.
30She went away to her house, and found the child having been laid on the bed, with the demon gone out.
31Zvino wakatizve achibva kumiganhu yeTire neSidhoni, akauya kugungwa reGarirea, nepakati pemiganhu yeDhekapori.
31Again he departed from the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and came to the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the region of Decapolis.
32Vakauisa kwaari umwe waiva matsi waikakamira, vakamukumbirisa kuti aise ruoko pamusoro pake.
32They brought to him one who was deaf and had an impediment in his speech. They begged him to lay his hand on him.
33Akamutora ari oga kubva pachaunga, akapinza mimwe yake munzeve dzake, akapfira, ndokubata rurimi rwake.
33He took him aside from the multitude, privately, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spat, and touched his tongue.
34Atarira kumusoro kudenga, akagomera, akati kwaari: "Efata"; ndiko kuti: Zarurwa!
34Looking up to heaven, he sighed, and said to him, “Ephphatha!” that is, “Be opened!”
35Pakarepo nzeve dzake dzakazarurwa, chisungo cherurimi rwake chikasunungurwa, akataura zvakarurama.
35Immediately his ears were opened, and the impediment of his tongue was released, and he spoke clearly.
36Ndokuvaraira, kuti varege kuudza munhu; asi pakunyanya kuvaraira, vakanyanya zvikuru kuparidza izvozvo.
36He commanded them that they should tell no one, but the more he commanded them, so much the more widely they proclaimed it.
37Vakashamisika zvikuru kwazvo, vachiti: Wakaita zviri zviviri zvakanaka; wakaita matsi kuti dzinzwe, nezvimumumu kuti zvitaure.
37They were astonished beyond measure, saying, “He has done all things well. He makes even the deaf hear, and the mute speak!”
