¹Yesu aliingia tena katika sunagogi na mle ndani mlikuwa na mtu aliyekuwa na mkono uliopooza.

¹And he entered again into the synagogue; and there was a man there who had his hand withered.

²Humo baadhi ya watu walimngojea amponye mtu huyo siku ya sabato ili wapate kumshtaki.

²And they watched him, whether he would heal him on the sabbath day; that they might accuse him.

³Yesu akamwambia huyo mtu aliyekuwa na mkono uliopooza, "Njoo hapa katikati."

³And he saith unto the man that had his hand withered, Stand forth.

⁴Kisha, akawauliza, "Je, ni halali siku ya Sabato kutenda jambo jema au kutenda jambo baya; kuokoa maisha au kuua?" Lakini wao hawakusema neno.

⁴And he saith unto them, Is it lawful on the sabbath day to do good, or to do harm? to save a life, or to kill? But they held their peace.

⁵Hapo akawatazama wote kwa hasira, akaona huzuni kwa sababu ya ugumu wa mioyo yao. Kisha akamwambia huyo mtu, "Nyosha mkono wako!" Naye akaunyosha mkono wake, ukawa mzima tena.

⁵And when he had looked round about on them with anger, being grieved at the hardening of their heart, he saith unto the man, Stretch forth thy hand. And he stretched it forth; and his hand was restored.

⁶Mara Mafarisayo wakatoka nje, wakafanya shauri pamoja na watu wa kikundi cha Herode jinsi ya kumwangamiza Yesu.

⁶And the Pharisees went out, and straightway with the Herodians took counsel against him, how they might destroy him.

⁷Yesu aliondoka hapo pamoja na wanafunzi wake, akaenda kando ya ziwa, na umati wa watu ukamfuata. Watu hao walikuwa wametoka Yerusalemu, Yudea,

⁷And Jesus with his disciples withdrew to the sea: and a great multitude from Galilee followed; and from Judaea,

⁸Idumea, ng'ambo ya mto Yordani, Tiro na Sidoni. Watu hao wengi walimwendea Yesu kwa sababu ya kusikia mambo mengi aliyokuwa ameyatenda.

⁸and from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and beyond the Jordan, and about Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, hearing what great things he did, came unto him.

⁹Yesu akawaambia wanafunzi wake wamtayarishie mashua moja, ili umati wa watu usije ukamsonga.

⁹And he spake to his disciples, that a little boat should wait on him because of the crowd, lest they should throng him:

¹⁰Alikuwa amewaponya watu wengi, na wagonjwa wote wakawa wanamsonga ili wapate kumgusa.

¹⁰for he had healed many; insomuch that as many as had plagues pressed upon him that they might touch him.

¹¹Na watu waliokuwa wamepagawa na pepo wachafu walipomwona, walijitupa chini mbele yake na kupaaza sauti, "Wewe ni Mwana wa Mungu!"

¹¹And the unclean spirits, whensoever they beheld him, fell down before him, and cried, saying, Thou art the Son of God.

¹²Lakini Yesu akawaamuru kwa ukali wasimjulishe kwa watu.

¹²And he charged them much that they should not make him known.

¹³Yesu alipanda kilimani, akawaita wale aliowataka. Basi, wakamwendea,

¹³And he goeth up into the mountain, and calleth unto him whom he himself would; and they went unto him.

¹⁴naye akawateua watu kumi na wawili ambao aliwaita mitume, wakae naye, awatume kuhubiri

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

¹⁵na wawe na mamlaka ya kuwafukuza pepo.

¹⁵and to have authority to cast out demons:

¹⁶Basi, hao kumi na wawili walioteuliwa ndio hawa: Simoni (ambaye Yesu alimpa jina, Petro),

¹⁶and Simon he surnamed Peter;

¹⁷Yakobo na Yohane, wana wa Zebedayo (Yesu aliwapa hawa ndugu wawili jina Boanerge, maana yake "wanangurumo"),

¹⁷and James the [son] of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and them he surnamed Boanerges, which is, Sons of thunder:

¹⁸Andrea na Filipo, Batholomayo, Mathayo, Thoma, Yakobo mwana wa Alfayo, Thadayo, Simoni Mkanani na

¹⁸and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the [son] of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Cananaean,

¹⁹Yuda Iskarioti ambaye alimsaliti Yesu.

¹⁹and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him. And he cometh into a house.

²⁰Kisha Yesu alikwenda nyumbani. Umati wa watu ukakusanyika tena, hata Yesu na wafuasi wake wasiweze kupata nafasi ya kula chakula.

²⁰And the multitude cometh together again, so that they could not so much as eat bread.

²¹Basi, watu wa jamaa yake walipopata habari hiyo wakatoka kwenda kumchukua maana walikuwa wanasema kwamba amepatwa na wazimu.

²¹And when his friends heard it, they went out to lay hold on him: for they said, He is beside himself.

²²Nao walimu wa Sheria waliokuwa wametoka Yerusalemu, wakasema, "Ana Beelzebuli! Tena, anawafukuza pepo kwa nguvu ya mkuu wa pepo."

²²And the scribes that came down from Jerusalem said, He hath Beelzebub, and, By the prince of the demons casteth he out the demons.

²³Hapo Yesu akawaita, akawaambia kwa mifano, "Shetani anawezaje kumfukuza Shetani?

²³And he called them unto him, and said unto them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan?

²⁴Ikiwa utawala mmoja umegawanyika makundimakundi yanayopigana, utawala huo hauwezi kudumu.

²⁴And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.

²⁵Tena, ikiwa jamaa moja imegawanyika makundimakundi yanayopingana, jamaa hiyo itaangamia.

²⁵And if a house be divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand.

²⁶Ikiwa basi, utawala wa Shetani umegawanyika vikundivikundi hauwezi kudumu, bali utaangamia kabisa.

²⁶And if Satan hath rise up against himself, and is divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end.

²⁷"Hakuna mtu awezaye kuivamia nyumba ya mtu mwenye nguvu na kumnyang'anya mali yake, isipokuwa kwanza amemfunga huyo mtu mwenye nguvu; hapo ndipo atakapoweza kumnyang'anya mali yake.

²⁷But no one can enter into the house of the strong [man], and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong [man]; and then he will spoil his house.

²⁸"Kweli nawaambieni, watu watasamehewa dhambi zao zote na kufuru zao zote;

²⁸Verily I say unto you, All their sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and their blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme:

²⁹lakini anayesema mabaya dhidi ya Roho Mtakatifu, hatasamehewa kamwe; ana hatia ya dhambi ya milele."

²⁹but whosoever shall blaspheme against the Holy Spirit hath never forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin:

³⁰(Yesu alisema hivyo kwa sababu walikuwa wanasema, "Ana pepo mchafu.")

³⁰because they said, He hath an unclean spirit.

³¹Mama yake Yesu na ndugu zake walifika hapo, wakasimama nje, wakampelekea ujumbe kutaka kumwona.

³¹And there come his mother and his brethren; and, standing without, they sent unto him, calling him.

³²Umati wa watu ulikuwa umekaa hapo kumzunguka. Basi, wakamwambia, "Mama yako na ndugu zako wako nje, wanataka kukuona."

³²And a multitude was sitting about him; and they say unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren without seek for thee.

³³Yesu akawaambia, "Mama yangu na ndugu zangu ni kina nani?"

³³And he answereth them, and saith, Who is my mother and my brethren?

³⁴Hapo akawatazama watu waliokuwa wamemzunguka, akasema, "Tazameni! Hawa ndio mama yangu na ndugu zangu.

³⁴And looking round on them that sat round about him, he saith, Behold, my mother and my brethren!

³⁵Mtu yeyote anayefanya anayotaka Mungu, huyo ndiye kaka yangu, dada yangu na mama yangu."

³⁵For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.
