¹When he came down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him.

¹ከተራራም በወረደ ጊዜ ብዙ ሕዝብ ተከተሉት።

²Behold, a leper came to him and worshiped him, saying, “Lord, if you want to, you can make me clean.”

²እነሆም፥ ለምጻም ቀርቦ። ጌታ ሆይ፥ ብትወድስ ልታነጻኝ ትችላለህ እያለ ሰገደለት።

³Jesus stretched out his hand, and touched him, saying, “I want to. Be made clean.” Immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

³እጁንም ዘርግቶ ዳሰሰውና። እወዳለሁ፥ ንጻ አለው። ወዲያውም ለምጹ ነጻ።

⁴Jesus said to him, “See that you tell nobody, but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”

⁴ኢየሱስም። ለማንም እንዳትናገር ተጠንቀቅ፥ ነገር ግን ሄደህ ራስህን ለካህን አሳይ፥ ለእነርሱም ምስክር እንዲሆን ሙሴ ያዘዘውን መባ አቅርብ አለው።

⁵When he came into Capernaum, a centurion came to him, asking him,

⁵ወደ ቅፍርናሆምም በገባ ጊዜ የመቶ አለቃ ወደ እርሱ ቀርቦ። ጌታ ሆይ፥

⁶and saying, “Lord, my servant lies in the house paralyzed, grievously tormented.”

⁶ብላቴናዬ ሽባ ሆኖ እጅግ እየተሣቀየ በቤት ተኝቶአል ብሎ ለመነው።

⁷Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.”

⁷ኢየሱስም። እኔ መጥቼ እፈውሰዋለሁ አለው።

⁸The centurion answered, “Lord, I’m not worthy for you to come under my roof. Just say the word, and my servant will be healed.

⁸የመቶ አለቃውም መልሶ። ጌታ ሆይ፥ በቤቴ ጣራ ከታች ልትገባ አይገባኝም፤ ነገር ግን ቃል ብቻ ተናገር፥ ብላቴናዬም ይፈወሳል።

⁹For I am also a man under authority, having under myself soldiers. I tell this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and tell another, ‘Come,’ and he comes; and tell my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”

⁹እኔ ደግሞ ለሌሎች ተገዥ ነኝና፥ ከእኔም በታች ጭፍራ አለኝ፤ አንዱንም። ሂድ ብለው ይሄዳል፥ ሌላውንም። ና ብለው ይመጣል፥ ባሪያዬንም። ይህን አድርግ ብለው ያደርጋል አለው።

¹⁰When Jesus heard it, he marveled, and said to those who followed, “Most certainly I tell you, I haven’t found so great a faith, not even in Israel.

¹⁰ኢየሱስም ሰምቶ ተደነቀና ለተከተሉት እንዲህ አለ። እውነት እላችኋለሁ፥ በእስራኤል እንኳ እንዲህ ያለ ትልቅ እምነት አላገኘሁም።

¹¹ I tell you that many will come from the east and the west, and will sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the Kingdom of Heaven,

¹¹እላችኋለሁም፥ ብዙዎች ከምሥራቅና ከምዕራብ ይመጣሉ ከአብርሃምና ከይስሐቅ ከያዕቆብም ጋር በመንግሥተ ሰማያት ይቀመጣሉ፤

¹² but the children of the Kingdom will be thrown out into the outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”

¹²የመንግሥት ልጆች ግን በውጭ ወደ አለው ጨለማ ይጣላሉ፤ በዚያ ልቅሶና ጥርስ ማፋጨት ይሆናል።

¹³Jesus said to the centurion, “Go your way. Let it be done for you as you have believed.” His servant was healed in that hour.

¹³ኢየሱስም ለመቶ አለቃ። ሂድና እንዳመንህ ይሁንልህ አለው። ብላቴናውም በዚያች ሰዓት ተፈወሰ።

¹⁴When Jesus came into Peter’s house, he saw his wife’s mother lying sick with a fever.

¹⁴ኢየሱስም ወደ ጴጥሮስ ቤት ገብቶ አማቱን በንዳድ ታማ ተኝታ አያት፤

¹⁵He touched her hand, and the fever left her. She got up and served him. TR reads “them” instead of “him”

¹⁵እጅዋንም ዳሰሰ፥ ንዳዱም ለቀቃት፤ ተነሥታም አገለገለቻቸው።

¹⁶When evening came, they brought to him many possessed with demons. He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick;

¹⁶በመሸም ጊዜ አጋንንት ያደረባቸውን ብዙዎችን ወደ እርሱ አመጡ፤ በነቢዩ በኢሳይያስ። እርሱ ድካማችንን ተቀበለ ደዌያችንንም ተሸከመ የተባለው ይፈጸም ዘንድ፥ መናፍስትን በቃሉ አወጣ፥ የታመሙትንም ሁሉ ፈወሰ።

¹⁷that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying: “He took our infirmities, and bore our diseases.” Isaiah 53:4

¹⁸ኢየሱስም ብዙ ሰዎች ሲከቡት አይቶ ወደ ማዶ እንዲሻገሩ አዘዘ።

¹⁸Now when Jesus saw great multitudes around him, he gave the order to depart to the other side.

¹⁹አንድ ጻፊም ቀርቦ። መምህር ሆይ፥ ወደምትሄድበት ሁሉ እከተልሃለሁ አለው።

¹⁹A scribe came, and said to him, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.”

²⁰ኢየሱስም። ለቀበሮዎች ጉድጓድ ለሰማይም ወፎች መሳፈሪያ አላቸው፥ ለሰው ልጅ ግን ራሱን የሚያስጠጋበት የለውም አለው።

²⁰Jesus said to him, “The foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.”

²¹ከደቀ መዛሙርቱም ሌላው። ጌታ ሆይ፥ አስቀድሜ እንድሄድ አባቴን እንድቀብር ፍቀድልኝ አለው።

²¹Another of his disciples said to him, “Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father.”

²²ኢየሱስም። ተከተለኝ፥ ሙታናቸውንም እንዲቀብሩ ሙታንን ተዋቸው አለው።

²²But Jesus said to him, “Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead.”

²³ወደ ታንኳም ሲገባ ደቀ መዛሙርቱ ተከተሉት።

²³When he got into a boat, his disciples followed him.

²⁴እነሆም፥ ማዕበሉ ታንኳይቱን እስኪደፍናት ድረስ በባሕር ታላቅ መናወጥ ሆነ፤ እርሱ ግን ተኝቶ ነበር።

²⁴Behold, a violent storm came up on the sea, so much that the boat was covered with the waves, but he was asleep.

²⁵ደቀ መዛሙርቱም ቀርበው። ጌታ ሆይ፥ አድነን፥ ጠፋን እያሉ አስነሡት።

²⁵They came to him, and woke him up, saying, “Save us, Lord! We are dying!”

²⁶እርሱም። እናንተ እምነት የጎደላችሁ፥ ስለ ምን ትፈራላችሁ? አላቸው፤ ከዚህ በኋላ ተነሥቶ ነፋሱንና ባሕሩን ገሠጸ፥ ታላቅ ጸጥታም ሆነ።

²⁶He said to them, “Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?” Then he got up, rebuked the wind and the sea, and there was a great calm.

²⁷ሰዎቹም። ነፋሳትና ባሕርስ ስንኳ የሚታዘዙለት፥ ይህ እንዴት ያለ ሰው ነው? እያሉ ተደነቁ።

²⁷The men marveled, saying, “What kind of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?”

²⁸ወደ ማዶም ወደ ጌርጋሴኖን አገር በመጣ ጊዜ፥ አጋንንት ያደሩባቸው ሁለት ሰዎች ከመቃብር ወጥተው ተገናኙት፤ እነርሱም ሰው በዚያ መንገድ ማለፍ እስኪሳነው ድረስ እጅግ ክፉዎች ነበሩ።

²⁸When he came to the other side, into the country of the Gergesenes, NU reads “Gadarenes” two people possessed by demons met him there, coming out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so that nobody could pass that way.

²⁹እነሆም። ኢየሱስ ሆይ፥ የእግዚአብሔር ልጅ፥ ከአንተ ጋር ምን አለን? ጊዜው ሳይደርስ ልትሣቅየን ወደዚህ መጣህን? እያሉ ጮኹ።

²⁹Behold, they cried out, saying, “What do we have to do with you, Jesus, Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?”

³⁰ከእነርሱም ርቆ የብዙ እሪያ መንጋ ይሰማራ ነበር።

³⁰Now there was a herd of many pigs feeding far away from them.

³¹አጋንንቱም። ታወጣንስ እንደሆንህ፥ ወደ እሪያው መንጋ ስደደን ብለው ለመኑት። ሂዱ አላቸው።

³¹The demons begged him, saying, “If you cast us out, permit us to go away into the herd of pigs.”

³²እነርሱም ወጥተው ወደ እሪያዎቹ ሄዱና ገቡ፤ እነሆም፥ የእሪያዎቹ መንጋ ሁሉ ከአፋፉ ወደ ባሕር እየተጣደፉ ሮጡ በውኃም ውስጥ ሞቱ።

³²He said to them, “Go!” They came out, and went into the herd of pigs: and behold, the whole herd of pigs rushed down the cliff into the sea, and died in the water.

³³እረኞችም ሸሹ፥ ወደ ከተማይቱም ሄደው ነገሩን ሁሉ አጋንንትም በአደሩባቸው የሆነውን አወሩ።

³³Those who fed them fled, and went away into the city, and told everything, including what happened to those who were possessed with demons.

³⁴እነሆም፥ ከተማው ሁሉ ኢየሱስን ሊገናኝ ወጣ፥ ባዩትም ጊዜ ከአገራቸው እንዲሄድላቸው ለመኑት።

³⁴Behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus. When they saw him, they begged that he would depart from their borders.
