Luke 10
1 Ni kle kima, Bachi a chu ndji tangba nda ton ba ni hi ha duba hi ni gbu ni gbu wa ndi wawu me ni hi niki.
Now after these things the Lord appointed seventy others also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place where he himself was about to come.
2 Wa a hla ni bawu, ichan a gbugbu'u, in bi tie du'a ba fi me, bre Irji ndi dubi tie ndu'a ye.
And he said to them, The harvest indeed [is] great, but the workmen few; supplicate therefore the Lord of the harvest that he may send out workmen into his harvest.
3 Mi toh yi, hi na mri krju ni mi meme in'ma miji.
Go: behold I send you forth as lambs in the midst of wolves.
4 Na ban nbu nklen na, ko mbu nklonna, ko lagban zan na, na chi ndrjo ni nkon na.
Carry neither purse nor scrip nor sandals, and salute no one on the way.
5 Du ikoh wa bi ri'a, bika guci tre du si suron du he ni koh yi!
And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace to this house.
6 Idan ni koh yi, inde ndji “U sun si suron a he ni mi, si suron ka son ni nituma. Idan ana he si suron bi ka huye ye kpambi.
And if a son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it; but if not it shall turn to you again.
7 Bi son ni koh wa ba kpa yi, bi rie ndi so kpe wa ba no yi'a, don ndji wu titu ani kpa ya ma, Na hu ni koh ni koh na.
And in the same house abide, eating and drinking such things as they have; for the workman is worthy of his hire. Remove not from house to house.
8 Du gbu wa bi ri, ide ba kpa yi, bi ri ndi sokpe wa ba no yi,
And into whatsoever city ye may enter and they receive you, eat what is set before you,
9 Be no bi lilo si. Di hla ni bawu ndi, ivi u ye Irji a tie whewhre.
and heal the sick in it, and say to them, The kingdom of God is come nigh to you.
10 Du gbu wa bi ri, u bana kpa yi na, bi ka rju hi ni nkon,
But into whatsoever city ye may have entered and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say,
11 Di tre ko wru zah mbi, ki se sruni yuu. Bi ka toh ndi iye Irji tie whewhre.
Even the dust of your city, which cleaves to us on the feet, do we shake off against you; but know this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh.
12 Mi hla ni yiwu ni vi kima u ye, ani he ni ya ni gbu kima zan Sodom.
I say to you that it shall be more tolerable for Sodom in that day than for that city.
13 Iyame Korazin, iya me Betseida, da iri kikle du a ba tie ni Tyre mba Sidon, bana kpa Irji ni sen mu, da ta sru gbanjan nklon nda son nitoh lu.
Woe to thee, Chorazin! woe to thee, Bethsaida! for if the works of power which have taken place in you had taken place in Tyre and Sidon, they had long ago repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
14 Chachu bla tre ani bini Sidon mbaTyre.
But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you.
And thou, Capernaum, who hast been raised up to heaven, shalt be brought down even to hades. (Hadēs g86)
16 Indji wa awo yi, a wohme kena, indji wa a kama ni yi'a, a kama ni me wa mi ton yi.
He that hears you hears me; and he that rejects you rejects me; and he that rejects me rejects him that sent me.
17 Wlon nkpu tangba ba k'ma ye ni kinkla suron, nda ni tre Bachi, Ibrji me ba kujoku nitawu nimi nde me.
And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject to us through thy name.
18 Yesu ka tre mi si ya Ibrji a joku rji ni shu na kpan.
And he said to them, I beheld Satan as lightning falling out of heaven.
19 Toh mi no yi gbengblen du yi chan iwan baba ilan, nitu bi gbengblen bi kra ta.
Behold, I give you the power of treading upon serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall in anywise injure you.
20 Na ngyiri ndi ibrji ba joku ni yiwu na, ngyiri ndi ba nha inde mbi ni shulu.
Yet in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subjected to you, but rejoice that your names are written in the heavens.
21 Ni nton kima'a a grji ni Ruhu ndindi, nda tre, Me zu inde me Timbu Bachi ni shu, ni u gbungblu, don u wru kpi bi hle ni bi wandi ba bu shishi nda to ndi, di tsro bi wa bana hla ni bawu na, na mri bi klekle, abi ni shishi tie mu.
In the same hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit and said, I praise thee, Father, Lord of the heaven and of the earth, that thou hast hid these things from wise and prudent, and hast revealed them to babes: yea, Father, for thus has it been well-pleasing in thy sight.
22 Tie mu a vu kpi ba wawu sru mu niwoh, ba ndji wa a toh Vren'a, se Iti ma, ba ndji wa a toh Iti'a se Vren'a, wandi Ivren a kpanyime nda ni tsro Ti'a.
All things have been delivered to me by my Father, and no one knows who the Son is but the Father, and who the Father is but the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son is pleased to reveal [him].
23 A kma hi ni mri koma ni ka grji ba, nda tre bi wa ba tie lulu yo ni bawu'a nda toh kpe wa bisi tie'a.
And having turned to the disciples privately he said, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see.
24 Bi tie ndu Irji baba bi chu gbugbu ba ndi ba toh kpe wa ndi bi si toh, “u” bana toh na. Ba ndi ba woh kpe wandi bisi woh, bana woh na.
For I say to you that many prophets and kings have desired to see the things which ye behold, and did not see [them]; and to hear the things which ye hear, and did not hear [them].
25 Se mala ri u bla tre ni Yahudawa kaye tsra u, nda tre mala, me tie ngye miti mi ni kpa re u tuntrun? (aiōnios g166)
And behold, a certain lawyer stood up tempting him, and saying, Teacher, having done what, shall I inherit life eternal? (aiōnios g166)
And he said to him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?
27 Wa a kasa nda tre gbigbi wuka sun Bachi Irji ni suron me wawu, ni drime, ni gbengblen me wawuu, ni mre me wawu, wuka son indji u kutra ka hlan me na time.
But he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thine understanding; and thy neighbour as thyself.
28 Yesu ka hla inde wu tie naki, u tie njanji u wuna kyu na.
And he said to him, Thou hast answered right: this do and thou shalt live.
29 Mala ani sun si tuma cuwo nda tre Yesu, Ahi nha hi indji u ka hlan mu?
But he, desirous of justifying himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbour?
30 Wa a tre ndi a rji ni Wurushelima nda ni hi Yariko. Da ka ku ni wo bi y'bi, u ba kpa wawu kpie wa ndi a nji'a, nda tsi'u, wa tie whre u kyu baka don wu.
And Jesus replying said, A certain man descended from Jerusalem to Jericho and fell into [the hands of] robbers, who also, having stripped him and inflicted wounds, went away leaving him in a half-dead state.
31 Se ga bi ton du Irji ye toh nda zuni kosan nda hi kpama.
And a certain priest happened to go down that way, and seeing him, passed on on the opposite side;
32 Se ga balawi aye nda toh nda gon zu ni kosan nda hi kpama ngame.
and in like manner also a Levite, being at the spot, came and looked [at him] and passed on on the opposite side.
33 Se ga Basamariye aye nda kukri nda ya indji'a a loh suron.
But a certain Samaritan journeying came to him, and seeing [him], was moved with compassion,
34 Aye nda ngla kpa niwu, nda gban nye niwu, nda loh kpa niwu, nda ban sa ni nhma ma, nda nji u ni bubu u kru.
and came up [to him] and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine; and having put him on his own beast, took him to [the] inn and took care of him.
35 U mble kpan no nkle, wandi bata ya indji wu lilo'a nda tre, to nklen'a a kleh, mi ye nowu mbru ma.
And on the morrow [as he left], taking out two denarii he gave them to the innkeeper, and said to him, Take care of him, and whatsoever thou shalt expend more, I will render to thee on my coming back.
36 Ni mi ndji tra biyi, ahi nha hi ndji u kutra kalah ma?
Which [now] of these three seems to thee to have been neighbour of him who fell into [the hands of] the robbers?
37 Se mala ka tre indji wa tsro loh suron, I Yesu ka tre hi ndi tie naki.
And he said, He that shewed him mercy. And Jesus said to him, Go, and do thou likewise.
38 Da ba si he nimi zren nda ye rini mi vi gburi, u wari bo yo'u ndi Mata a kpa'u ni koh ma ni woh ha.
And it came to pass as they went that he entered into a certain village; and a certain woman, Martha by name, received him into her house.
39 Ahe ni vayi ma, bata yo'u ndi Maryamu, wa ndi a son ni zah Bachi nda si woh kpe wa ndi asi tre'a.
And she had a sister called Mary, who also, having sat down at the feet of Jesus was listening to his word.
40 Mata si sron biri, “u” wawu Mata a ye ni Yesu nda tre Bachi wu na toh yada vayi mu a kame don misi tie ndu'a kanklen mu na? Hla niwu du ye zo me.
Now Martha was distracted with much serving, and coming up she said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Speak to her therefore that she may help me.
41 Bachi ka tre Mata, Mata wu yo kpi gbugbu'u ni ko shishi me,
But Jesus answering said to her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things;
42 ama kpe riri Maryamu a chu kpe ndindi ma, ba ndji'a wa ani sran wu kpa.
but there is need of one, and Mary has chosen the good part, the which shall not be taken from her.
