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 by two ahead of Him to every town and place where He Himself was about to go.
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.
Then He said to them: “The harvest is indeed great, but the workers are few; therefore pray to the Lord of the harvest that He may send out workers into His harvest.
3 Mi toh yi, hi na mri krju ni mi meme in'ma miji.
“Go! Yes, I am sending you out like lambs among wolves.
4 Na ban nbu nklen na, ko mbu nklonna, ko lagban zan na, na chi ndrjo ni nkon na.
Do not carry a purse, nor a knapsack, nor sandals; and greet no one along the road.
5 Du ikoh wa bi ri'a, bika guci tre du si suron du he ni koh yi!
Into whatever house you 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.
If a son of peace is there, your peace will rest upon him; but if not, it will return to you.
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.
Remain in that same house, eating and drinking what they offer, because the worker is worthy of his wages. Do not move around from house to house.
8 Du gbu wa bi ri, ide ba kpa yi, bi ri ndi sokpe wa ba no yi,
“And into whatever town you enter, and they receive you, eat the things that are set before you.
9 Be no bi lilo si. Di hla ni bawu ndi, ivi u ye Irji a tie whewhre.
Heal the sick therein and say to them, ‘The Kingdom of God has come near to you.’
10 Du gbu wa bi ri, u bana kpa yi na, bi ka rju hi ni nkon,
But into whatever town you enter, 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 town that clings to us we wipe off against you. Nonetheless know this, that the Kingdom of God has come near to you.’
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 will be more tolerable in that Day for Sodom than for that town.
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 you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! Because if the mighty works that were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
14 Chachu bla tre ani bini Sidon mbaTyre.
Nevertheless it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the Judgment than for you.
And you, Capernaum, who are ‘exalted to heaven’, will be brought down 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 who listens to you listens to me, and he who rejects you rejects me; but he who rejects me rejects Him who 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.
Then the seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!”
18 Yesu ka tre mi si ya Ibrji a joku rji ni shu na kpan.
So He said to them: “I watched Satan fall like lightning out of heaven.
19 Toh mi no yi gbengblen du yi chan iwan baba ilan, nitu bi gbengblen bi kra ta.
Take note, I am giving you the authority to trample on snakes and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing at all may harm you.
20 Na ngyiri ndi ibrji ba joku ni yiwu na, ngyiri ndi ba nha inde mbi ni shulu.
However, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you; rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven.”
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 that same hour Jesus exulted in His spirit and said: “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent, and have revealed them to ‘infants’. Yes, Father, because it pleased you to do so.”
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.
And turning to the disciples He said: “All things have been entrusted to me by my Father; also, no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and to whomever the Son may choose 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.
Then turning to His disciples privately He said: “Blessed are the eyes that are seeing the things that you 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 what you are seeing but did not, and to hear what you are hearing but did not.”
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 then, a certain lawyer stood up to test Him, saying, “Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
So He said to him: “What is written in the Law? How do you read it?”
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.
In answer he said: “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind, and, your neighbor as yourself.”
28 Yesu ka hla inde wu tie naki, u tie njanji u wuna kyu na.
So He said to him, “You have answered correctly; do this and you will live!”
29 Mala ani sun si tuma cuwo nda tre Yesu, Ahi nha hi indji u ka hlan mu?
But he, wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”
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.
By way of reply Jesus said: “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and as it chanced he ran into robbers, who after having stripped and wounded him, departed, leaving him half dead.
31 Se ga bi ton du Irji ye toh nda zuni kosan nda hi kpama.
Now by coincidence a certain priest was going down that road, and when he saw him he passed by on the other side.
32 Se ga balawi aye nda toh nda gon zu ni kosan nda hi kpama ngame.
So too, a Levite, when he arrived at the place, came and looked, and passed by on the other side.
33 Se ga Basamariye aye nda kukri nda ya indji'a a loh suron.
But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled, came by there, and upon 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 going to him he bound up his wounds, applying oil and wine. Then he placed him on his own mount, brought him to an 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.
On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, gave them to the innkeeper, and said to him, ‘Take care of him; and should you spend more, I will repay you when I return.’
36 Ni mi ndji tra biyi, ahi nha hi ndji u kutra kalah ma?
So which of these three, would you say, was ‘neighbor’ to him who ran into the robbers?”
37 Se mala ka tre indji wa tsro loh suron, I Yesu ka tre hi ndi tie naki.
He said, “The one who showed mercy on him.” So Jesus said to him, “Go and do 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.
Now it happened as they traveled that He entered a certain village; and a certain woman named Martha welcomed 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 actually sat at Jesus' feet listening to His words.
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.
Well Martha was distracted with much serving; so coming up she said: “Lord, don't you care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Do please tell her to help me!”
41 Bachi ka tre Mata, Mata wu yo kpi gbugbu'u ni ko shishi me,
But in answer Jesus said to her: “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and agitated about many things,
42 ama kpe riri Maryamu a chu kpe ndindi ma, ba ndji'a wa ani sran wu kpa.
but only one is needed. However, Mary has chosen the good part, which will not be taken away from her.”
