Luke 17
1 Yesu hla ni imri koh ma, A lele ndi ba kbu za ni tita iya mbi wa wu sa ahe ni krigin.
And he said to his disciples: “It is impossible for scandals not to occur. But woe to him through whom they come!
2 Ana bi bana klo tita wu ni toh ma nda kayo nimi nne fi niwa ni tsa iri ni mi imri bi tsitsa yi diba kbu za.
It would be better for him if a millstone were placed around his neck and he were thrown into the sea, than to lead astray one of these little ones.
3 Ya kpambi, wa vayi ma lahtre, bwu shishi niwu, nda a kpa nuyime wruhle niwu.
Be attentive to yourselves. If your brother has sinned against you, correct him. And if he has repented, forgive him.
4 Nda kpalla niwu inkpu tangban ni vi ri, nda k'ma ye niwu inkpu tangban nda tre, mi brewu, abi du wruhle niwu.
And if he has sinned against you seven times a day, and seven times a day has turned back to you, saying, ‘I am sorry,’ then forgive him.”
5 Bi ninkon ba hla ni tie kon mba, nzu yo suron buu.
And the Apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith.”
6 Irji hla ndu bi he ni bangaskiya kama wlo mustard, bi iya hla niku kro du rumin chu di tsen nimi nei, A kpa nyime niwu.
But the Lord said: “If you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you may say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted, and be transplanted into the sea.’ And it would obey you.
7 A nha nimi mbi, ahe ni vren koh wa ni rho ko krju int'ma rhi rji mi ji ye, ani lla niwu tsima ye ndi ri lah.
But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle, would say to him, as he was returning from the field, ‘Come in immediately; sit down to eat,’
8 Ana hla ni wuna, wa kpe mi ri, ndi khi di tie ndu bar mi ri ndi tso. U me wru ndi tsro na?
and would not say to him: ‘Prepare my dinner; gird yourself and minister to me, while I eat and drink; and after these things, you shall eat and drink?’
9 Ana gir ni wer kon du a tie ikpa wawu la una a tie?
Would he be grateful to that servant, for doing what he commanded him to do?
10 Iwu me naki yi nda u tie kpe wa ba hla niwu, u ya tre, kbi na khai mri koh ..... ma. Kbi tie ikpe wa kbi na tie.
I think not. So too, when you have done all these things that have been taught to you, you should say: ‘We are useless servants. We have done what we should have done.’”
11 A bi fin ri atsi tie ni Wurishelima, abu kusa nei gbu Samariya ni Galili.
And it happened that, while he was traveling to Jerusalem, he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.
12 Wa ari ni gbu ri, ndji wlon bi lilon gben ba izun ni wu. Ba klir gbugbanmu niwu.
And as he was entering a certain town, ten leprous men met him, and they stood at a distance.
13 Ba bwu ba ni fu ba, nda tre, Yesu nikon wo iyi mbu.
And they lifted up their voice, saying, “Jesus, Teacher, take pity on us.”
14 Wa ato ba, ahla ni bawu, hi ndi tsro tumbi ni Firistoci. Wa ba tsi bi, ba kpa sikpa.
And when he saw them, he said, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And it happened that, as they were going, they were cleansed.
15 Iri nimi ba wa a to wawu samu sikpa, a kmaye, nda ngyiri ni Ijri ni la ndindima.
And one of them, when he saw that he was cleansed, returned, magnifying God with a loud voice.
16 A joku ni kbu Yesu, nda ngyiri niwu gbugbome wawu a ndji igbu Samariya.
And he fell face down before his feet, giving thanks. And this one was a Samaritan.
17 Yesu la bana ndji wlo na wa samu sikpa na, itiya ba bahe ni ntsen?
And in response, Jesus said: “Were not ten made clean? And so where are the nine?
18 Ba bari wa ba kmaye nda ngyiri ni Irji, tse ndji tsri yi?
Was no one found who would return and give glory to God, except this foreigner?”
19 A hla niwu, lunde ndi he ni suron ndindime anu sikpa ma.
And he said to him: “Rise up, go forth. For your faith has saved you.”
20 Farisawa ba mye Irji ni ye ni ntan, Yesu hlani bawu ndi Irji ana ye iri iya ndi na.
Then he was questioned by the Pharisees: “When does the kingdom of God arrive?” And in response, he said to them: “The kingdom of God arrives unobserved.
21 Ko ba la yah, ahe iyi koh ahe wamu. Bi ka yah iye Irji ahe aniwu.
And so, they will not say, ‘Behold, it is here,’ or ‘Behold, it is there.’ For behold, the kingdom of God is within you.”
22 A hla ni imri koh ma, i vin tse ye wa bi son toh ivi wa ivren ndji niye, bi na tona.
And he said to his disciples: “The time will come when you will desire to see one day of the Son of man, and you will not see it.
23 Ba hla niwu, yah, ni wamu, yah niwa hi na rju na, na bu ba na.
And they will say to you, ‘Behold, he is here,’ and ‘Behold, he is there.’ Do not choose to go out, and do not follow them.
24 Ya nda izren ni whri nda kma tsutsa wa ni whri gbagbla shu yi ni gbagblamu, ani he nikiyi ivren ndji ni vin ma.
For just as lightning flashes from under heaven and shines to whatever is under heaven, so also will the Son of man be in his day.
25 A ni sha yah gbugbu kri gbugblu bakaba wu.
But first he must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.
26 A ni he nawa ahe ni nton Nuhu, ani he nakiyi ivi u ivren ndji.
And just as it happened in the days of Noah, so also will it be in the days of the Son of man.
27 Ba nri, ba tso ba grah nde ninu grah har hi tub wa Nuhu anri ni Jirgi imah tubana ayeh, nda wu ba penpeme.
They were eating and drinking; they were taking wives and being given in marriage, even until the day that Noah entered the ark. And the flood came and destroyed them all.
28 A he na kiyi ni tan lutu bata nri, bata tso bata lbe nda lebie bata shu bata meh ba koh.
It shall be similar to what happened in the days of Lot. They were eating and drinking; they were buying and selling; they were planting and building.
29 Ivin wa lutu rju ni Saduma, ba tsra lu kwekwema rji ni shu bawu ba u ahuwu.
Then, on the day that Lot departed from Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and it destroyed them all.
30 Ani he na kiyi wa ba ton vren ndji.
According to these things, so shall it be in the day when the Son of man will be revealed.
31 Ni vi khi yi, indji he ni tun khan du ma ngrji da ni vu kpima ni kon na, wa ahi ni rju du na kma ye na.
In that hour, whoever will be on the rooftop, with his goods in the house, let him not descend to take them. And whoever will be in the field, similarly, let him not turn back.
32 Rhi mre iwa Lutu.
Remember Lot’s wife.
33 Wa ni son tuma, ani rasa niwu, wa k tuma nu, ani tsira niwu.
Whoever has sought to save his life, will lose it; and whoever has lost it, will bring it back to life.
34 Mi hla niwu, ni chu kiyi ndi ha ni tub blah riri, baba ri nda ton ri.
I say to you, in that night, there will be two in one bed. One will be taken up, and the other will be left behind.
35 Imba ha ba si kon kpu ba ka ban ri, nda bri rima.
Two will be at the grindstone together. One will be taken up, and the other will be left behind. Two will be in the field. One will be taken up, and the other will be left behind.”
36 Ndji lulo bari ba hi ni rju, ba ban ri nda bri ri.
Responding, they said to him, “Where, Lord?”
37 Ba mye, ni ntsen Tie koh? A hla bawu iwirji igbokpa ahe, ni kiyi bi ton ugulu.
And he said to them, “Wherever the body will be, in that place also, the eagles shall be gathered together.”
