Biblia Takatifu (Swahili): New Testament portions
1On the other side of the sea, they arrived in the region of the Gerasenes.
1Basi, wakafika katika nchi ya Wagerase, ng'ambo ya ziwa.
2As soon as Jesus got out of the boat, He was met by a man with an unclean spirit, who was coming from the tombs.
2Mara tu Yesu aliposhuka mashuani, mtu mmoja aliyepagawa na pepo mchafu alitoka makaburini, akakutana naye.
3This man had been living in the tombs and could no longer be restrained, even with chains.
3Mtu huyo alikuwa akiishi makaburini wala hakuna mtu aliyeweza tena kumfunga kwa minyororo.
4Though he was often bound with chains and shackles, he had broken the chains and shattered the shackles. Now there was no one with the strength to subdue him.
4Mara nyingi walimfunga kwa pingu na minyororo lakini kila mara aliweza kuikata hiyo minyororo na kuzivunja hizo pingu, wala hakuna mtu aliyeweza kumzuia.
5Night and day in the tombs and in the mountains he kept crying out and cutting himself with stones.
5Mchana na usiku alikaa makaburini na milimani akipaaza sauti na kujikatakata kwa mawe.
6When the man saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and fell on his knees before Him.
6Alipomwona Yesu kwa mbali, alimkimbilia, akamwinamia
7And he shouted in a loud voice, “What do You want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You before God not to torture me!”
7akisema kwa sauti kubwa, “Una shauri gani nami, wewe Yesu Mwana wa Mungu aliye juu? Kwa jina la Mungu, nakusihi usinitese!”
8For Jesus had already declared, “Come out of this man, you unclean spirit!”
8(Alisema hivyo kwa kuwa Yesu alikuwa amemwambia, “Pepo mchafu, mtoke mtu huyu.”)
9“What is your name?” Jesus asked. “My name is Legion,” he replied, “for we are many.”
9Basi, Yesu akamwuliza, “Jina lako nani?” Naye akajibu, “Jina langu ni Jeshi, maana sisi tu wengi.”
10And he begged Jesus repeatedly not to send them out of that region.
10Kisha akamsihi Yesu asiwafukuze hao pepo katika nchi ile.
11There on the nearby hillside a large herd of pigs was feeding.
11Kulikuwa na kundi kubwa la nguruwe malishoni kwenye mteremko wa mlima.
12So the demons begged Jesus, “Send us to the pigs, so that we may enter them.”
12Basi, hao pepo wakamsihi, “Utupeleke kwa hao nguruwe, tuwaingie.”
13He gave them permission, and the unclean spirits came out and went into the pigs, and the herd of about two thousand rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned in the water.
13Naye akawaruhusu. Basi, hao pepo wachafu wakatoka, wakawaingia wale nguruwe. Kundi lote la nguruwe wapatao elfu mbili likaporomoka kwenye ule mteremko mkali mpaka ziwani, likatumbukia majini.
14Those tending the pigs ran off and reported this in the town and countryside, and the people went out to see what had happened.
14Wachungaji wa hao nguruwe walikimbia, wakatangaza jambo hilo mjini na mashambani. Watu wakafika kuona yaliyotukia.
15When they came to Jesus, they saw the man who had been possessed by the legion of demons sitting there, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.
15Wakamwendea Yesu, wakamwona na mtu yuleyule aliyekuwa amepagawa na jeshi la pepo ameketi chini, amevaa nguo na ana akili yake sawa, wakaogopa.
16Those who had seen it described what had happened to the demon-possessed man and also to the pigs.
16Watu walishuhudia tukio hilo wakaeleza wengine mambo yaliyompata huyo mtu aliyekuwa amepagawa na pepo na juu ya wale nguruwe.
17And the people began to beg Jesus to leave their region.
17Basi, wakaanza kumwomba aondoke katika nchi yao.
18As He was getting into the boat, the man who had been possessed by the demons begged to go with Him.
18Yesu alipokuwa anapanda mashuani, yule mtu aliyekuwa amepagawa na pepo akamwomba amruhusu kwenda naye.
19But Jesus would not allow him. “Go home to your own people,” He said, “and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and what mercy He has shown you.”
19Lakini Yesu akamkatalia. Badala yake akamwambia, “Nenda nyumbani kwa jamaa yako, ukawaambie mambo yote Bwana aliyokutendea na jinsi alivyokuonea huruma.”
20So the man went away and began to proclaim throughout the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him. And everyone was amazed.
20Basi, huyo mtu akaenda, akaanza kutangaza huko Dekapoli mambo yote Yesu aliyomtendea; watu wote wakashangaa.
21When Jesus had again crossed by boat to the other side, a large crowd gathered around Him beside the sea.
21Yesu alivukia tena upande wa pili wa ziwa kwa mashua. Umati mkubwa wa watu ukakusanyika mbele yake, naye akawa amesimama kando ya ziwa.
22A synagogue leader named Jairus arrived, and seeing Jesus, he fell at His feet
22Hapo akaja mmojawapo wa maofisa wa sunagogi, jina lake Yairo. Alipomwona Yesu, akajitupa mbele ya miguu yake,
23and pleaded with Him urgently, “My little daughter is near death. Please come and place Your hands on her, so that she will be healed and live.”
23akamsihi akisema, “Binti yangu mdogo ni mgonjwa karibu kufa. Twende tafadhali, ukamwekee mikono yako, apate kupona na kuishi.”
24So Jesus went with him, and a large crowd followed and pressed around Him.
24Basi, Yesu akaondoka pamoja naye. Watu wengi sana wakamfuata, wakawa wanamsonga kila upande.
25And a woman was there who had suffered from bleeding for twelve years.
25Mmojawapo alikuwa mwanamke mwenye ugonjwa wa kutokwa damu kwa muda wa miaka kumi na miwili.
26She had borne much agony under the care of many physicians and had spent all she had, but to no avail. Instead, her condition had only grown worse.
26Mwanamke huyo alikuwa amekwisha sumbuka sana kuwaendea waganga wengi. Na ingawa alikuwa amekwisha tumia mali yake yote, hakupata nafuu bali hali yake ilizidi kuwa mbaya.
27When the woman heard about Jesus, she came up through the crowd behind Him and touched His cloak.
27Alikuwa amesikia habari za Yesu, na hivyo akaupenya msongamano wa watu kutoka nyuma, akagusa vazi lake.
28For she kept saying, “If only I touch His garments, I will be healed.”
28Alifanya hivyo, maana alijisemea, “Nikigusa tu vazi lake, nitapona.”
29Immediately her bleeding stopped, and she sensed in her body that she was healed of her affliction.
29Mara chemchemi ya damu yake ikakauka, akajisikia mwilini mwake kwamba ameponywa ugonjwa wake.
30At once Jesus was aware that power had gone out from Him. Turning to the crowd, He asked, “Who touched My garments?”
30Yesu alitambua mara kwamba nguvu imemtoka. Basi akaugeukia ule umati wa watu, akauliza, “Nani aliyegusa mavazi yangu?”
31His disciples answered, “You can see the crowd pressing in on You, and yet You ask, ‘Who touched Me?’”
31Wanafunzi wake wakamjibu, “Unaona jinsi watu wanavyokusonga; mbona wauliza nani aliyekugusa?”
32But He kept looking around to see who had done this.
32Lakini Yesu akaendelea kutazama amwone huyo aliyefanya hivyo.
33Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell down before Him trembling in fear, and she told Him the whole truth.
33Hapo huyo mwanamke, akifahamu yaliyompata, akajitokeza akitetemeka kwa hofu, akajitupa chini mbele ya Yesu na kusema ukweli wote.
34“Daughter,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be free of your affliction.”
34Yesu akamwambia, “Binti, imani yako imekuponya. Nenda kwa amani, upone kabisa ugonjwa wako.”
35While He was still speaking, messengers from the house of Jairus arrived and said, “Your daughter is dead; why bother the Teacher anymore?”
35Yesu alipokuwa bado anaongea, watu walifika kutoka nyumbani kwa yule ofisa wa sunagogi, wakamwambia, “Binti yako amekwisha kufa. Ya nini kuendelea kumsumbua Mwalimu?”
36But Jesus overheard their conversation and said to Jairus, “Do not be afraid; just believe.”
36Lakini, bila kujali walichosema, Yesu akamwambia mkuu wa sunagogi, “Usiogope, amini tu.”
37And He did not allow anyone to accompany Him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James.
37Wala hakumruhusu mtu yeyote kufuatana naye ila Petro, Yakobo na Yohane nduguye Yakobo.
38When they arrived at the house of the synagogue leader, Jesus saw the commotion and the people weeping and wailing loudly.
38Wakafika nyumbani kwa ofisa wa sunagogi naye Yesu akasikia makelele, kilio na maombolezo mengi.
39He went inside and asked, “Why all this commotion and weeping? The child is not dead, but asleep.”
39Akaingia ndani, akawaambia, “Mbona mnapiga kelele na kulia? Msichana hakufa, amelala tu.”
40And they laughed at Him. After He had put them all outside, He took the child’s father and mother and His own companions, and went in to see the child.
40Lakini wao wakamcheka. Basi, akawaondoa wote nje, akawachukua baba na mama ya huyo msichana na wale wanafunzi wake, wakaingia chumbani alimokuwa huyo msichana.
41Taking her by the hand, Jesus said, “Talitha koum!” which means, “Little girl, I say to you, get up!”
41Kisha akamshika mkono, akamwambia, “Talitha, kumi,” maana yake, “Msichana, nakwambia, amka!”
42Immediately the girl got up and began to walk around. She was twelve years old, and at once they were utterly astounded.
42Mara msichana akasimama, akaanza kutembea. (Alikuwa na umri wa miaka kumi na miwili.) Hapo watu wakashangaa kupita kiasi.
43Then Jesus gave strict orders that no one should know about this, and He told them to give her something to eat.
43Yesu akawakataza sana wasimjulishe mtu jambo hilo. Kisha akawaambia wampe huyo msichana chakula.
