1Again he began to teach by the seaside. A great multitude was gathered to him, so that he entered into a boat in the sea, and sat down. All the multitude were on the land by the sea.
1 Yesu ye ka sintin ka dondonandi teeko me gaa. Borey marga bambata margu a do kal a to naŋ kaŋ a furo hi ra ka goro teeko boŋ. Borey mo go jabo boŋ teeko me gaa.
1And again he began to teach by the sea side. And there is gathered unto him a very great multitude, so that he entered into a boat, and sat in the sea; and all the multitude were by the sea on the land.
2He taught them many things in parables, and told them in his teaching,
2 A n'i dondonandi hari boobo nda misayaŋ. A dondonandiyaŋo ra a go ga ne i se:
2And he taught them many things in parables, and said unto them in his teaching,
3 “Listen! Behold, the farmer went out to sow,
3 «Wa maa: dum'izey sayko fo fatta ka koy dum'izey sayyaŋ.
3Hearken: Behold, the sower went forth to sow:
4 and it happened, as he sowed, some seed fell by the road, and the birds TR adds “of the air” came and devoured it.
4 Waato kaŋ a go dum'izey sayyaŋo gaa, gurayze fooyaŋ kaŋ fonda jarga, curey mo kaa k'i ŋwa.
4and it came to pass, as he sowed, some [seed] fell by the way side, and the birds came and devoured it.
5 Others fell on the rocky ground, where it had little soil, and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of soil.
5 Afooyaŋ mo kaŋ tondi batama boŋ, nangu kaŋ sinda laabu boobo. Sahãadin-sahãadin i fun, zama laabo si baa.
5And other fell on the rocky [ground], where it had not much earth; and straightway it sprang up, because it had no deepness of earth:
6 When the sun had risen, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
6 Waato kaŋ wayna fatta, wayna n'i kukure zama i sinda kaaji hanno, hal i koogu.
6and when the sun was risen, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
7 Others fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
7 Afooyaŋ kaŋ karjey ra. Karjey mo fun ka beeri k'i koote hal i mana hay.
7And other fell among the thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
8 Others fell into the good ground, and yielded fruit, growing up and increasing. Some brought forth thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times as much.”
8 Afooyaŋ mo kaŋ laabu hanno ra. I beeri gumo ka tonton hal i hay, afooyaŋ no waranza, afooyaŋ waydu, afooyaŋ mo zangu.»
8And others fell into the good ground, and yielded fruit, growing up and increasing; and brought forth, thirtyfold, and sixtyfold, and a hundredfold.
9He said, “Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.”
9 Yesu ne: «Boro kaŋ gonda hanga kaŋ ga maa, a ma maa!»
9And he said, Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
10When he was alone, those who were around him with the twelve asked him about the parables.
10 Waato kaŋ a go nga hinne, a windanta borey da iway cindi hinka din n'a hã misey din.
10And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parables.
11He said to them, “To you is given the mystery of the Kingdom of God, but to those who are outside, all things are done in parables,
11 A ne i se: «I n'araŋ no araŋ ma Irikoy koytara gundey* bay. Amma ngey kaŋ go taray, i ga hay kulu ci i se nda misayaŋ.
11And he said unto them, Unto you is given the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all things are done in parables:
12 that ‘seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest perhaps they should turn again, and their sins should be forgiven them.’” Isaiah 6:9-10
12 Zama ‹gunayaŋ ra i ma di, amma i ma si fayanka. Maayaŋ ra mo i ma maa, amma i ma si faham. Da manti yaadin no i ga bare _ay do|_ hal i ma du yaafayaŋ.› »
12that seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest haply they should turn again, and it should be forgiven them.
13He said to them, “Don’t you understand this parable? How will you understand all of the parables?
13 Yesu ne i se: «Araŋ mana faham da misa wo no? Mate no araŋ ga te ka faham da misey kulu?
13And he saith unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how shall ye know all the parables?
14 The farmer sows the word.
14 To! Dum'izey saykwa goono ga Irikoy Sanno say.
14The sower soweth the word.
15 The ones by the road are the ones where the word is sown; and when they have heard, immediately Satan comes, and takes away the word which has been sown in them.
15 Woone yaŋ ga ti fonda jarga waney: nangu kulu kaŋ i ga sanno say-say, hal i maa mo, sahãadin-sahãadin Saytan* ga kaa ka sanno kaŋ i say i ra din kom.
15And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; and when they have heard, straightway cometh Satan, and taketh away the word which hath been sown in them.
16 These in the same way are those who are sown on the rocky places, who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with joy.
16 Yaadin mo no wo kaŋ yaŋ i say tondi batama ra neeya: ngey kaŋ yaŋ d'i maa sanno, sahãadin-sahãadin i g'a ta da farhã,
16And these in like manner are they that are sown upon the rocky [places], who, when they have heard the word, straightway receive it with joy;
17 They have no root in themselves, but are short-lived. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately they stumble.
17 amma i sinda kaaji ngey ra. I si gay mo, amma da taabi wala gurzugay tun sanno sabbay se, sahãadin-sahãadin i ga mulay.
17and they have no root in themselves, but endure for a while; then, when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, straightway they stumble.
18 Others are those who are sown among the thorns. These are those who have heard the word,
18 Cindey kaŋ i say karjey ra, ngey ga ti borey kaŋ ga maa sanno,
18And others are they that are sown among the thorns; these are they that have heard the word,
19 and the cares of this age, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.
19 amma zamana wo karhã, da arzaka halliyaŋ, da canse waani-waani kaŋ ga furo ga sanno koote, hal a ma jaŋ ka te albarka.
19and the cares of the world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.
20 Those which were sown on the good ground are those who hear the word, and accept it, and bear fruit, some thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times.”
20 Wo kaŋ yaŋ i say laabu hanno ra mo neeya: ngey kaŋ go ga maa sanno k'a ta. I ga izey hay waranza, da waydu da zangu.»
20And those are they that were sown upon the good ground; such as hear the word, and accept it, and bear fruit, thirtyfold, and sixtyfold, and a hundredfold.
21He said to them, “Is the lamp brought to be put under a basket literally, a modion, a dry measuring basket containing about a peck (about 9 litres) or under a bed? Isn’t it put on a stand?
21 A ne i se: «I ga fitilla diyandi k'a daabu nda cilla, wala i m'a daŋ daari cire? Manti i g'a dake taablo boŋ no?
21And he said unto them, Is the lamp brought to be put under the bushel, or under the bed, [and] not to be put on the stand?
22 For there is nothing hidden, except that it should be made known; neither was anything made secret, but that it should come to light.
22 Zama hay kulu si no tugante kaŋ i s'a bangandi. Hay kulu mo si kaŋ go gundu ra kaŋ i s'a kaa taray kwaaray.
22For there is nothing hid, save that it should be manifested; neither was [anything] made secret, but that it should come to light.
23 If any man has ears to hear, let him hear.”
23 Boro kulu kaŋ gonda hanga kaŋ ga maa, a ma maa!»
23If any man hath ears to hear, let him hear.
24He said to them, “Take heed what you hear. With whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you, and more will be given to you who hear.
24 A ne i se mo: «Araŋ ma haggoy da haŋ kaŋ araŋ goono ga maa! Zama neesijo kaŋ araŋ ga neesi nd'a din, nga no i ga neesi nd'a araŋ se, i ga tonton a gaa araŋ se zaati.
24And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete it shall be measured unto you; and more shall be given unto you.
25 For whoever has, to him will more be given, and he who doesn’t have, even that which he has will be taken away from him.”
25 Zama boro kaŋ gonda, nga se no i ga no. Boro kaŋ sinda mo, baa haŋ kaŋ go a se din, i g'a ta a gaa.»
25For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken away even that which he hath.
26He said, “The Kingdom of God is as if a man should cast seed on the earth,
26 A ne i se: «Yaadin no Irikoy koytara ga bara sanda boro kaŋ ga gurayzey say laabo ra.
26And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed upon the earth;
27 and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should spring up and grow, he doesn’t know how.
27 A ma kani ka tun cin da zaari. Gurayzey mo ma fun ka beeri, amma nga din si bay mate kaŋ woodin ga bara nd'a.
27and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should spring up and grow, he knoweth not how.
28 For the earth bears fruit: first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.
28 Laabu bumbo ga albarka no nga boŋ se, sintinay kobto, woodin banda jeeno, waato gaa gure ninante jeeno ra.
28The earth beareth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear.
29 But when the fruit is ripe, immediately he puts forth the sickle, because the harvest has come.”
29 Waato kaŋ izey nin mo, sahãadin-sahãadin a ga zaama daŋ ka wi, zama heemaro to.»
29But when the fruit is ripe, straightway he putteth forth the sickle, because the harvest is come.
30He said, “How will we liken the Kingdom of God? Or with what parable will we illustrate it?
30 A ne mo: «Mate no iri ga Irikoy koytara himandi nd'a? Misa fo dumi no iri g'a deede nd'a?
30And he said, How shall we liken the kingdom of God? or in what parable shall we set it forth?
31 It’s like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, though it is less than all the seeds that are on the earth,
31 A ga hima sanda mutard* ize cine no. Nga mo waato kaŋ i g'a duma laabo ra, baa kaŋ a ga kayna ka bisa gurayzey kulu kaŋ go ndunnya ra,
31It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown upon the earth, though it be less than all the seeds that are upon the earth,
32 yet when it is sown, grows up, and becomes greater than all the herbs, and puts out great branches, so that the birds of the sky can lodge under its shadow.”
32 kulu nda yaadin, d'i n'a duma a ga beeri ka bisa tuuri ize kulu. A ga kambe bambata yaŋ te hala beene curey ga hin ka zumbu a biyo ra.»
32yet when it is sown, groweth up, and becometh greater than all the herbs, and putteth out great branches; so that the birds of the heaven can lodge under the shadow thereof.
33With many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear it.
33 Woodin dumi boobo boŋ no Yesu salaŋ i se da misayaŋ, i maayaŋey hina me boŋ.
33And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were able to hear it;
34Without a parable he didn’t speak to them; but privately to his own disciples he explained everything.
34 Amma da manti nda misa, a mana salaŋ i se. Amma d'i ye labu gaa, a ga hay kulu feeri nga talibey se.
34and without a parable spake he not unto them: but privately to his own disciples he expounded all things.
35On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let’s go over to the other side.”
35 Zaaro din ra, waato kaŋ wiciri kambo to, Yesu ne nga talibey se: «Iri ma teeko daŋandi ka koy ya-haray kambo gaa.»
35And on that day, when even was come, he saith unto them, Let us go over unto the other side.
36Leaving the multitude, they took him with them, even as he was, in the boat. Other small boats were also with him.
36 I na borey marga naŋ. Talibey mo n'a sambu ka kond'a ngey banda hiyo ra. Hi fooyaŋ mo go i banda koyne.
36And leaving the multitude, they take him with them, even as he was, in the boat. And other boats were with him.
37A big wind storm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so much that the boat was already filled.
37 Hari haw bambata fo tun ka hari bondayey kar kala hiyo ra, hala hiyo goono ga to mo.
37And there ariseth a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the boat, insomuch that the boat was now filling.
38He himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion, and they woke him up, and told him, “Teacher, don’t you care that we are dying?”
38 Yesu bumbo go hiyo ra banda, a goono ga kani furkange boŋ. I n'a tunandi ka ne: «Alfa, ni baa si nda iri ma halaci no?»
38And he himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion: and they awake him, and say unto him, Teacher, carest thou not that we perish?
39He awoke, and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” The wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
39 A tun ka deeni hawo gaa, ka ne teeko se: «Dangay ka kani!» Hawo kay, kal i kulu dangay ka kay, tak!
39And he awoke, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
40He said to them, “Why are you so afraid? How is it that you have no faith?”
40 A ne i se: «Ifo se no araŋ goono ga humburu? Mate no kaŋ araŋ sinda cimbeeri*?»
40And he said unto them, Why are ye fearful? have ye not yet faith?
41They were greatly afraid, and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?”
41 Ngey mo humburu gumo. I ne ngey nda cara se: «May no boro wo, hala baa haw nda teeko goono ga maa a sanney se?»
41And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
