¹It happened soon afterwards, that he went about through cities and villages, preaching and bringing the good news of the Kingdom of God. With him were the twelve,

¹Ary taoriana kelin'izany, dia lasa Jesosy nitety ny tanàna sy ny vohitra nitory ny filazantsaran'ny fanjakan'Andriamanitra; ary ny roa ambin'ny folo lahy nanaraka Azy.

²and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary who was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out;

²mbamin'ny vehivavy sasany, izay nositraniny tamin'ny fanahy ratsy sy ny aretina, dia Maria atao hoe Magdalena, izay efa nivoahan'ny demonia fito,

³and Joanna, the wife of Chuzas, Herod’s steward; Susanna; and many others; who served them TR reads “him” instead of “them” from their possessions.

³sy Johana, vadin'i Koza, mpitandrina ny fananan'i Heroda, ary Sosana mbamin'ny maro hafa koa, izay nanompo azy tamin'ny fananany. [Na: Azy]

⁴When a great multitude came together, and people from every city were coming to him, he spoke by a parable.

⁴Ary nisy vahoaka betsaka niangona, ka nanatona Azy ny olona avy tamin'ny isan-tanàna, dia nanao fanoharana hoe Izy:

⁵ “The farmer went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some fell along the road, and it was trampled under foot, and the birds of the sky devoured it.

⁵Nivoaka ny mpamafy hamafy ny voa; ary raha namafy izy, ny sasany dia voafafy teny amoron-dalana ka voahitsakitsaka, ary dia lanin'ny voro-manidina.

⁶ Other seed fell on the rock, and as soon as it grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture.

⁶Ary ny sasany dia voafafy teny ambonin'ny vatolampy; ary raha vao naniry izy, dia nalazo; satria tsy nisy mandomando.

⁷ Other fell amid the thorns, and the thorns grew with it, and choked it.

⁷Ary ny sasany dia voafafy teny amin'ny tsilo; ary ny tsilo niara-naniry taminy, dia nangeja azy.

⁸ Other fell into the good ground, and grew, and brought forth fruit one hundred times.” As he said these things, he called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”

⁸Ary ny sasany dia voafafy teny amin'ny tany tsara, dia naniry ka namoa zato heny. Ary rehefa nilaza izany Izy, dia niantso hoe: Izay manan-tsofina ho enti-mihaino, aoka izy hihaino.

⁹Then his disciples asked him, “What does this parable mean?”

⁹Ary ny mpianany nanontany Azy ny amin'izay hevitr'izany fanoharana izany.

¹⁰He said, “To you it is given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of God, but to the rest in parables; that ‘seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.’ Isaiah 6:9

¹⁰Dia hoy Izy: Hianareo no navela hahalala ny zava-miafina ny amin'ny fanjakan'Andriamanitra; fa amin'ny olon-kafa dia fanoharana no atao, mba hijery izy, fa tsy hahita, ary hahare, fa tsy hahafantatra (Isa. 6. 9). [Gr. nomena]

¹¹ Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

¹¹Koa izao no hevitry ny fanoharana: Ny voa dia ny tenin'Andriamanitra.

¹² Those along the road are those who hear, then the devil comes, and takes away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved.

¹²Ireo teny amoron-dalana dia izay mandre, nefa avy ny devoly ka manaisotra ny teny ao am-pony, fandrao hino izy ka hovonjena.

¹³ Those on the rock are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; but these have no root, who believe for a while, then fall away in time of temptation.

¹³Ireo teny ambonin'ny vatolampy dia izay mandre sady mandray ny teny amin'ny hafaliana; nefa tsy manam-paka ireo, fa mino vetivety ihany, koa amin'izay andro isehoan'ny fakam-panahy dia mihemotra izy.

¹⁴ That which fell among the thorns, these are those who have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to maturity.

¹⁴Ireo teny amin'ny tsilo dia izay mandre, fa nony mandeha izy, dia voagejan'ny fiahiahiana sy ny harena ary ny fahafinaretan'izao fiainana izao ka tsy mahavanom-boa.

¹⁵ That in the good ground, these are such as in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it tightly, and bring forth fruit with patience.

¹⁵Fa ireo teny amin'ny tany tsara kosa dia izay mandre ny teny amin'ny fo sady marina no tsara, dia mitana azy ka mamoa amin'ny faharetana.

¹⁶ “No one, when he has lit a lamp, covers it with a container, or puts it under a bed; but puts it on a stand, that those who enter in may see the light.

¹⁶Tsy misy olona mampirehitra jiro ka manarona azy, na nametraka azy ao ambanin'ny farafara; fa ataony eo amin'ny fanaovan-jiro izy, mba ho hitan'izay miditra ny mazava.

¹⁷ For nothing is hidden, that will not be revealed; nor anything secret, that will not be known and come to light.

¹⁷Fa tsy misy takona izay tsy ho hita, na miafina izay tsy ho fantatra sy tsy haseho.

¹⁸ Be careful therefore how you hear. For whoever has, to him will be given; and whoever doesn’t have, from him will be taken away even that which he thinks he has.”

¹⁸Koa tandremo ny fihainonareo; fa izay manana dia homena; ary izay tsy manana kosa, na dia izay ataony ho ananany aza dia halaina aminy.

¹⁹His mother and brothers came to him, and they could not come near him for the crowd.

¹⁹Ary renin'i Jesosy sy ny rahalahiny nanatona Azy, fa tsy nahazo nihaona taminy, satria nifanety ny vahoaka.

²⁰It was told him by some saying, “Your mother and your brothers stand outside, desiring to see you.”

²⁰Ary nisy nilaza taminy hoe: Ny reninao sy ny rahalahinao mijanona ato ala-trano ta-hahita Anao.

²¹But he answered them, “My mother and my brothers are these who hear the word of God, and do it.”

²¹Fa namaly Izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Ny reniko sy ny rahalahiko dia ireto izay mandre ny tenin'Andriamanitra ka mankatò azy.

²²Now it happened on one of those days, that he entered into a boat, himself and his disciples, and he said to them, “Let’s go over to the other side of the lake.” So they launched out.

²²Ary tamin'ny andro anankiray dia niondrana an-tsambokely Jesosy sy ny mpianany; ary hoy Izy taminy: Andeha isika hankeny am-pitan'ny farihy; dia lasa izy.

²³But as they sailed, he fell asleep. A wind storm came down on the lake, and they were taking on dangerous amounts of water.

²³Ary nony nandeha ny sambokely, dia azon'ny torimaso Jesosy; ary nisy tafio-drivotra nidina tamin'ny farihy, ka nila ho feno rano ny sambo, ary saiky nahita loza izy ireo.

²⁴They came to him, and awoke him, saying, “Master, master, we are dying!” He awoke, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water, and they ceased, and it was calm. See Psalm 107:29

²⁴Ary nanatona izy, dia namoha Azy ka nanao hoe: Tompoko, Tompoko, maty izahay! Dia nitsangana Izy, ka noteneniny mafy ny rivotra sy ny onjan-drano. Ary dia nitsahatra izany, ka tonga tony tsara ny andro.

²⁵He said to them, “Where is your faith?” Being afraid they marveled, saying one to another, “Who is this, then, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?”

²⁵Ary hoy Izy taminy: Aiza ny finoanareo? Ary natahotra izy ireo sady gaga ka niresaka hoe: Iza moa Ity, no mandidy ny rivotra sy ny rano Izy, ka manaiky Azy izany!

²⁶They arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is opposite Galilee.

²⁶Dia nitody tany amin'ny tanin'ny Gerasena izay tandrifin'i Galilia izy.[Na: (Gadarena)]

²⁷When Jesus stepped ashore, a certain man out of the city who had demons for a long time met him. He wore no clothes, and didn’t live in a house, but in the tombs.

²⁷Ary raha niala nankeny an-tanety Jesosy, dia nifanena taminy ny lehilahy anankiray avy tao an-tanàna, izay efa nanana demonia, ary efa ela izy no tsy nitafy lamba sady tsy nitoetra tao an-trano, fa teny amin'ny fasana.

²⁸When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, “What do I have to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the Most High God? I beg you, don’t torment me!”

²⁸Fa nony nahita an'i Jesosy izy, dia niantso mafy sady niankohoka teo anatrehany ka niteny tamin'ny feo mahery hoe: Moa mifaninona akory Hianao, Jesosy, Zanak'Andriamanitra Avo Indrindra ô? masina Hianao, aza mampijaly ahy.

²⁹For Jesus was commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For the unclean spirit had often seized the man. He was kept under guard, and bound with chains and fetters. Breaking the bands apart, he was driven by the demon into the desert.

²⁹Fa Izy nandidy ny fanahy maloto hivoaka tamin-dralehilahy. Fa efa nahazo azy ela izany; ary efa nafatotra tamin'ny gadra, na ny tànany, na ny tongony, ka nambenana izy; nefa notapahiny ny fatorana, ka dia nentin'ny demonia niriotra nankany an-efitra izy.

³⁰Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He said, “Legion,” for many demons had entered into him.

³⁰Ary Jesosy nanontany azy ka nanao hoe: Iza moa no anaranao? Dia hoy izy: Legiona; fa demonia maro no efa niditra tao anatiny.

³¹They begged him that he would not command them to go into the abyss.

³¹Ary nifona taminy izy mba tsy handidiany azy hankany amin'ny lavaka tsy hita noanoa.

³²Now there was there a herd of many pigs feeding on the mountain, and they begged him that he would allow them to enter into those. He allowed them.

³²Ary nisy kisoa maro andiany iray nandrasana teny an-tendrombohitra, ary ny demonia nifona taminy mba havelany hiditra ao anatiny. Dia nekeny.

³³The demons came out from the man, and entered into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake, and were drowned.

³³Ary ny demonia, rehefa nivoaka tamin-dralehilahy, dia niditra tao anatin'ny kisoa; ary ireo kisoa andiany ireo nitratrevatreva tamin'ny hantsana ho any amin'ny farihy, ka dia maty tany.[Gr. kenda]

³⁴When those who fed them saw what had happened, they fled, and told it in the city and in the country.

³⁴Ary nony hitan'ny mpiandry izany natao izany, dia nandositra izy ka nilaza izany tao an-tanàna sy tany an-tsaha.

³⁵People went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting at Jesus’ feet, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.

³⁵Dia nivoaka ny olona mba hizaha izany natao izany; ary tonga tany amin'i Jesosy izy, dia nahita an-dralehilahy izay efa nivoahan'ny demonia, fa indro izy nipetraka teo anilan'ny tongotr'i Jesosy nitafy lamba sady ary saina; dia raiki-tahotra ireo.

³⁶Those who saw it told them how he who had been possessed by demons was healed.

³⁶Ary izay efa nahita dia nanambara tamin'ny olona ny namonjena an'ilay demoniaka.

³⁷All the people of the surrounding country of the Gadarenes asked him to depart from them, for they were very much afraid. He entered into the boat, and returned.

³⁷Ary ny olona rehetra tany amin'ny tanin'ny Gerasena manodidina dia nangataka an'i Jesosy hiala aminy, satria raiki-tahotra indrindra izy; ary Jesosy niondrana an-tsambokely ka niverina.[Na: Gadarena]

³⁸But the man from whom the demons had gone out begged him that he might go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying,

³⁸Ary ny lehilahy izay efa nivoahan'ny demonia dia nangataka mba hitoetra ao aminy; nefa nampodin'i Jesosy izy ka nataony hoe:

³⁹ “Return to your house, and declare what great things God has done for you.” He went his way, proclaiming throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.

³⁹Modia ihany any an-tranonao, ka ambarao ny zavatra lehibe nataon'Andriamanitra taminao. Dia nandeha izy ka nitory eran'ny tanàna izay zavatra lehibe nataon'i Jesosy taminy.

⁴⁰It happened, when Jesus returned, that the multitude welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.

⁴⁰Ary nony tafaverina Jesosy, dia nandray Azy tsara ny vahoaka, fa niandry Azy avokoa izy rehetra.

⁴¹Behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue. He fell down at Jesus’ feet, and begged him to come into his house,

⁴¹Ary, indro, dia tonga ny lehilahy atao hoe Jairo, mpanapaka ny synagoga; dia niankohoka tamin'ny tongotr'i Jesosy izy ka niangavy taminy hiditra ao an-tranony.

⁴²for he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. But as he went, the multitudes pressed against him.

⁴²Fa nanana zanakavavy tokana tokony ho roa ambin'ny folo taona izy, ary efa ho faty razazavavy. Ary raha nandeha Jesosy, dia nanety lalana Azy ny vahoaka.

⁴³A woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years, who had spent all her living on physicians, and could not be healed by any,

⁴³Ary nisy vehivavy anankiray narary roa ambin'ny folo taona, izay efa nandany ny fananany rehetra tamin'ny mpanao fanafody, nefa tsy nisy nahasitrana azy akory.[Gr. narary nandeha rà]

⁴⁴came behind him, and touched the fringe or, tassel of his cloak, and immediately the flow of her blood stopped.

⁴⁴Dia nankao ivohon'i Jesosy ravehivavy ka nanendry ny somotraviavin-dambany, ary niaraka tamin'izay dia nijanona ny aretiny.[Gr. fandehanan'ny ràny]

⁴⁵Jesus said, “Who touched me?” When all denied it, Peter and those with him said, “Master, the multitudes press and jostle you, and you say, ‘Who touched me?’ ”

⁴⁵Ary hoy Jesosy: Iza moa no nanendry Ahy? Ary rehefa samy nandà izy rehetra, dia hoy Petera sy ny namany: Tompoko, ny vahoaka betsaka mifanety ka manizina Anao.

⁴⁶But Jesus said, “Someone did touch me, for I perceived that power has gone out of me.”

⁴⁶Fa hoy Jesosy: Nisy olona nanendry Ahy; fa fantatro fa nisy hery nivoaka avy tamiko.

⁴⁷When the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling, and falling down before him declared to him in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately.

⁴⁷Ary rehefa hitan-dravehivavy fa tsy takona Azy izy, dia nangovitra izy ka nankeo aminy sady niankohoka teo anatrehany, dia nanambara teo anatrehan'ny vahoaka rehetra izay anton'ny nanendreny Azy sy izay nahasitranany niaraka tamin'izay.

⁴⁸He said to her, “Daughter, cheer up. Your faith has made you well. Go in peace.”

⁴⁸Ary hoy Jesosy taminy: Anaka, ny finoanao no nahasitrana anao; mandehana soa aman-tsara.[Gr. nahavonjy]

⁴⁹While he still spoke, one from the ruler of the synagogue’s house came, saying to him, “Your daughter is dead. Don’t trouble the Teacher.”

⁴⁹Ary raha mbola niteny Jesosy, dia tonga ny anankiray avy tany amin'ilay mpanapaka ny synagoga ka nanao hoe: Maty ny zanakao-vavy; aza manahirana ny Mpampianatra.

⁵⁰But Jesus hearing it, answered him, “Don’t be afraid. Only believe, and she will be healed.”

⁵⁰Fa Jesosy, raha nahare, dia namaly azy ka nanao hoe: Aza matahotra; minoa fotsiny ihany, dia ho velona izy.[Gr. voavonjy]

⁵¹When he came to the house, he didn’t allow anyone to enter in, except Peter, John, James, the father of the child, and her mother.

⁵¹Ary raha tonga tao an-trano Izy, dia tsy nisy olona navelany hiara-miditra taminy, afa-tsy Petera sy Jaona ary Jakoba mbamin'ny ray aman-drenin-drazazavavy.

⁵²All were weeping and mourning her, but he said, “Don’t weep. She isn’t dead, but sleeping.”

⁵²Ary ny olona rehetra nitomany sy nisaona azy; fa Jesosy nanao hoe: Aza mitomany; fa tsy maty izy, fa matory.

⁵³They were ridiculing him, knowing that she was dead.

⁵³Dia nihomehy Azy fatratra ny olona satria fantany fa efa maty razazavavy.

⁵⁴But he put them all outside, and taking her by the hand, he called, saying, “Child, arise!”

⁵⁴Ary Jesosy dia nandray ny tànany ka niantso hoe: Ry zazavavy, miarena.

⁵⁵Her spirit returned, and she rose up immediately. He commanded that something be given to her to eat.

⁵⁵Dia nody indray ny ainy, ka niarina niaraka tamin'izay izy; ary nasainy nomena hanina izy.Ary dia talanjona ny ray aman-dreniny; fa Jesosy nandrara ary tsy hilazalaza amin'olona ny zavatra efa natao.

⁵⁶Her parents were amazed, but he commanded them to tell no one what had been done.

⁵⁶Ary dia talanjona ny ray aman-dreniny; fa Jesosy nandrara ary tsy hilazalaza amin'olona ny zavatra efa natao.
