< 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, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither 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 unto them, The harvest is plenteous, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he send forth labourers into his harvest.
3 Mi toh yi, hi na mri krju ni mi meme in'ma miji.
Go your ways: 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 no purse, no wallet, no shoes: and salute no man 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 shall enter, first say, Peace [be] 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 him: 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 that same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the labourer is worthy of his hire. Go 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 enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are 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 that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
10 Du gbu wa bi ri, u bana kpa yi na, bi ka rju hi ni nkon,
But into whatsoever city ye shall enter, and they receive you not, go out into the streets thereof and say,
11 Di tre ko wru zah mbi, ki se sruni yuu. Bi ka toh ndi iye Irji tie whewhre.
Even the dust from your city, that cleaveth to our feet, we do wipe off against you: howbeit 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 unto you, It shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, 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 unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon, which were done in you, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
14 Chachu bla tre ani bini Sidon mbaTyre.
Howbeit it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment, than for you.
15 U kapanawum, u ya ndi wu, u rhi ni shulu? ba nji grjiye yo ni Hades. (Hadēs )
And thou, Capernaum, shalt thou be exalted unto heaven? thou shalt be brought down unto Hades. (Hadēs )
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 heareth you heareth me; and he that rejecteth you rejecteth me; and he that rejecteth me rejecteth 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 devils are subject unto us in thy name.
18 Yesu ka tre mi si ya Ibrji a joku rji ni shu na kpan.
And he said unto them, I beheld Satan fallen as lightning from heaven.
19 Toh mi no yi gbengblen du yi chan iwan baba ilan, nitu bi gbengblen bi kra ta.
Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall in any wise hurt you.
20 Na ngyiri ndi ibrji ba joku ni yiwu na, ngyiri ndi ba nha inde mbi ni shulu.
Howbeit in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rejoice that 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 he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou didst hide these things from the wise and understanding, and didst reveal them unto babes: yea, Father; for so it was 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 unto me of my Father: and no one knoweth who the Son is, save the Father; and who the Father is, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son willeth 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 turning to the disciples, he said privately, 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 unto you, that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which ye see, and saw them not; and to hear the things which ye hear, and heard them 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 )
And behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? (aiōnios )
And he said unto 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.
And 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 thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.
28 Yesu ka hla inde wu tie naki, u tie njanji u wuna kyu na.
And he said unto 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, desiring to justify himself, said unto 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.
Jesus made answer and said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho; and he fell among robbers, which both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead.
31 Se ga bi ton du Irji ye toh nda zuni kosan nda hi kpama.
And by chance a certain priest was going down that way: 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.
And in like manner a Levite also, when he came to the place, and saw him, 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 journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he 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 to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on [them] oil and wine; and he set him on his own beast, and 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.
And on the morrow he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, I, when I come back again, will repay thee.
36 Ni mi ndji tra biyi, ahi nha hi ndji u kutra kalah ma?
Which of these three, thinkest thou, proved neighbour unto him that fell among 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 mercy on him. And Jesus said unto 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.
Now as they went on their way, he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha 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, which also sat at the Lord’s feet, and heard 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.
But Martha was cumbered about much serving; and she came up to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister did leave me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.
41 Bachi ka tre Mata, Mata wu yo kpi gbugbu'u ni ko shishi me,
But the Lord answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art anxious and troubled about many things:
42 ama kpe riri Maryamu a chu kpe ndindi ma, ba ndji'a wa ani sran wu kpa.
but one thing is needful: for Mary hath chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
