Yesu Aliisa Abantu Enkumi Ennya

Mu biseera ebyo, ebibiina ne byeyongera obunene nate, abantu emmere n’ebaggwaako. Yesu n’ayita abayigirizwa be n’abagamba nti, (A)“Abantu bano bankwasa ekisa, kubanga baakamala nange ennaku ssatu, naye tebalina kyakulya. Singa mbasiibula baddeyo ewaabwe nga tebalidde, enjala ejja kubasuula ku kkubo! Ate abamu bava wala.”

Abayigirizwa ne bamubuuza nti, “Emigaati tunaagiggya wa wano mu ddungu eginaamala abantu bano bonna?”

Yesu n’ababuuza nti, “Mulinawo emigaati emeka?” Ne baddamu nti, “Musanvu.”

Awo Yesu n’alagira abantu batuule wansi. N’addira emigaati omusanvu, ne yeebaza Katonda, n’agimenyaamenyamu, n’agiwa abayigirizwa be ne bagitwalira ekibiina ne babagabula. (B)Era baalina wo n’ebyennyanja bitono, nabyo Yesu n’abiwa omukisa n’agamba abayigirizwa be babigabule abantu. (C)Abantu bonna ne balya okutuusa lwe bakkuta, ne bakuŋŋaanya ebyabalema ebisero musanvu ebijjudde. Mu kibiina ekyo mwalimu abantu ng’enkumi nnya. N’abasiibula. 10 Amangwago n’asaabala mu lyato n’abayigirizwa be n’ajja mu kitundu eky’e Dalumanusa.

Abafalisaayo Basaba Yesu Akabonero Akava mu Ggulu

11 (D)Abafalisaayo ne bajja gy’ali ne batandika okuwakana naye nga banoonya akabonero akava mu ggulu nga bamugezesa. 12 (E)Yesu n’assa ekikkowe, n’abagamba nti, “Lwaki omulembe guno gunoonya akabonero? Ddala ddala mbagamba nti, Tewali kabonero kajja kuweebwa mulembe guno.” 13 N’abaviira n’asaabala mu lyato n’alaga ku ludda olulala olw’ennyanja.

Ekizimbulukusa ky’Abafalisaayo n’ekya Kerode

14 Abayigirizwa beerabira okutwala emigaati egiwera; baalina omugaati gumu gwokka mu lyato. 15 (F)Yesu n’abakuutira nti, “Mwekuume ekizimbulukusa eky’Abafalisaayo n’ekizimbulukusa ekya Kerode.”

16 Ne boogeraganya bokka ne bokka nti tebalina migaati.

17 (G)Yesu bwe yakimanya n’abagamba nti, “Lwaki mugambagana nti temulina migaati? Era temunnategeera? Emitima gyammwe gikyali mikakanyavu? 18 Lwaki temulaba, ate nga mulina amaaso? Lwaki temuwulira ate nga mulina amatu? Temujjukira? 19 (H)Mwerabidde emigaati etaano gye namenyamenyamu okuliisa abantu enkumi ettaano? Ebisero byali bimeka eby’obukunkumuka bye mwakuŋŋaanya?”

Ne baddamu nti, “Kkumi na bibiri.”

20 (I)N’ababuuza nti, “Ate abantu bwe baali enkumi ennya n’emigaati omusanvu, mwakuŋŋaanya ebisero by’obutundutundu bwe baalemwa bimeka?”

Ne baddamu nti, “Musanvu.” 21 (J)N’abagamba nti, “Era temunnategeera?”

Yesu Awonya Omuzibe w’Amaaso mu Besusayida

22 (K)Awo bwe baatuuka mu Besusayida, ne wabaawo abantu abaamuleetera omusajja omuzibe w’amaaso, ne bamwegayirira amukwateko. 23 (L)Yesu n’akwata omuzibe w’amaaso ku mukono n’amufulumya ebweru w’akabuga ako. N’awanda amalusu ku maaso g’omusajja n’agakwatako, n’amubuuza nti, “Kaakano waliwo ky’olaba?”

24 Omusajja n’amagamaga, n’addamu nti, “Yee! Ndaba abantu kyokka balabika ng’emiti egitambula.”

25 Yesu n’ayongera okukwata ku maaso g’omusajja, omusajja n’azibuka amaaso n’awonera ddala buli kintu n’akiraba bulungi. 26 Yesu n’amutuma mu maka g’ewaabwe ng’amugamba nti, “Toddayo mu kyalo.”

Peetero Ayatula Kristo

27 Awo Yesu n’abayigirizwa be, ne bagenda mu bubuga obw’e Kayisaliya ekya Firipo. Naye bwe baali batambula, Yesu n’ababuuza nti, “Abantu bampita ani?”

28 (M)Abayigirizwa be ne bamuddamu nti, “Yokaana Omubatiza, abalala Eriya, naye abalala nti omu ku bannabbi.”

29 (N)Kwe kubabuuza nti, “Naye mmwe mumpita ani?” Peetero n’addamu nti, “Ggwe Kristo.”

30 (O)Naye Yesu n’abakuutira baleme okukibuulirako omuntu yenna!

Yesu Alanga Okufa kwe n’Okuzuukira kwe

31 (P)Awo Yesu n’atandika okubabuulira nti, “Kigwanidde Omwana w’Omuntu okubonaabona ennyo, n’okugaanibwa abakadde, ne bakabona abakulu n’abannyonnyozi b’amateeka, n’okuttibwa, n’oluvannyuma lw’ennaku ssatu okuzuukira.” 32 (Q)Yayogera nabo ku nsonga zino zonna mu lwatu, Peetero kyeyava amuzza wabbali n’atandika okumunenya.

33 (R)Yesu n’akyuka n’atunuulira abayigirizwa be, n’alyoka anenya Peetero nti, “Setaani dda ennyuma wange, kubanga tolowooza ku bya Katonda wabula olowooza ku by’abantu.”

34 (S)Awo Yesu n’ayita ekibiina wamu n’abayigirizwa be, n’abagamba nti, “Obanga waliwo omuntu ayagala okungoberera, asaanidde okwefiiriza asitule omusaalaba gwe alyoke angoberere. 35 (T)Kubanga buli eyeemalira ku bulamu bwe, alibufiirwa. Naye oyo awaayo obulamu bwe ku lwange ne ku lw’Enjiri alibuwonya. 36 Kale omuntu agasibwa ki singa alya ensi yonna, naye n’afiirwa obulamu bwe? 37 Omuntu ayinza kuweebwa ki, akiwanyise olw’obulamu bwe? 38 (U)Era buli muntu yenna ankwatirwa ensonyi, n’ebigambo byange ne bimukwasa ensonyi mu mulembe guno ogutali mwesigwa era ogujjudde ebibi, Omwana w’Omuntu alimukwatirwa ensonyi bw’alijja mu kitiibwa kya Kitaawe ne bamalayika abatukuvu.”

Jesus Feeds the Four Thousand(A)(B)(C)

During those days another large crowd gathered. Since they had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples to him and said, “I have compassion for these people;(D) they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat. If I send them home hungry, they will collapse on the way, because some of them have come a long distance.”

His disciples answered, “But where in this remote place can anyone get enough bread to feed them?”

“How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked.

“Seven,” they replied.

He told the crowd to sit down on the ground. When he had taken the seven loaves and given thanks, he broke them and gave them to his disciples to distribute to the people, and they did so. They had a few small fish as well; he gave thanks for them also and told the disciples to distribute them.(E) The people ate and were satisfied. Afterward the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.(F) About four thousand were present. After he had sent them away, 10 he got into the boat with his disciples and went to the region of Dalmanutha.

11 The Pharisees came and began to question Jesus. To test him, they asked him for a sign from heaven.(G) 12 He sighed deeply(H) and said, “Why does this generation ask for a sign? Truly I tell you, no sign will be given to it.” 13 Then he left them, got back into the boat and crossed to the other side.

The Yeast of the Pharisees and Herod

14 The disciples had forgotten to bring bread, except for one loaf they had with them in the boat. 15 “Be careful,” Jesus warned them. “Watch out for the yeast(I) of the Pharisees(J) and that of Herod.”(K)

16 They discussed this with one another and said, “It is because we have no bread.”

17 Aware of their discussion, Jesus asked them: “Why are you talking about having no bread? Do you still not see or understand? Are your hearts hardened?(L) 18 Do you have eyes but fail to see, and ears but fail to hear? And don’t you remember? 19 When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many basketfuls of pieces did you pick up?”

“Twelve,”(M) they replied.

20 “And when I broke the seven loaves for the four thousand, how many basketfuls of pieces did you pick up?”

They answered, “Seven.”(N)

21 He said to them, “Do you still not understand?”(O)

Jesus Heals a Blind Man at Bethsaida

22 They came to Bethsaida,(P) and some people brought a blind man(Q) and begged Jesus to touch him. 23 He took the blind man by the hand and led him outside the village. When he had spit(R) on the man’s eyes and put his hands on(S) him, Jesus asked, “Do you see anything?”

24 He looked up and said, “I see people; they look like trees walking around.”

25 Once more Jesus put his hands on the man’s eyes. Then his eyes were opened, his sight was restored, and he saw everything clearly. 26 Jesus sent him home, saying, “Don’t even go into[a] the village.”

Peter Declares That Jesus Is the Messiah(T)

27 Jesus and his disciples went on to the villages around Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked them, “Who do people say I am?”

28 They replied, “Some say John the Baptist;(U) others say Elijah;(V) and still others, one of the prophets.”

29 “But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?”

Peter answered, “You are the Messiah.”(W)

30 Jesus warned them not to tell anyone about him.(X)

Jesus Predicts His Death(Y)

31 He then began to teach them that the Son of Man(Z) must suffer many things(AA) and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests and the teachers of the law,(AB) and that he must be killed(AC) and after three days(AD) rise again.(AE) 32 He spoke plainly(AF) about this, and Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him.

33 But when Jesus turned and looked at his disciples, he rebuked Peter. “Get behind me, Satan!”(AG) he said. “You do not have in mind the concerns of God, but merely human concerns.”

The Way of the Cross

34 Then he called the crowd to him along with his disciples and said: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.(AH) 35 For whoever wants to save their life[b] will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me and for the gospel will save it.(AI) 36 What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? 37 Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul? 38 If anyone is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man(AJ) will be ashamed of them(AK) when he comes(AL) in his Father’s glory with the holy angels.”
