Luke 20
1 Baya viri wa Yesu ata bla tre ma ni Urushelima, indji biwa ba he nimiyi, wu Firistoci wu malamai Attaura wu shugabanni ba cimiye niwu.
AND it was on one of the days, while he taught the people in the temple and evangelized, the chief priests and scribes with the elders rose up against him,
2 Ba tre niwu, “Hla nitwu ni kpekpele nha wuse tindu ba, wu a nha mba ano kpekplemba.”
and said to him, Tell us by what authority thou doest these, and who is he who gave thee this authority?
3 A kpa ye nibawu nda tre, “Imeme miyi tre yi bika kpayi ni mu.
Jeshu answered and said to them, I will also ask of you a word, and tell you me:
4 Isukpa nima Yohana, ani yi nishu ko ni ndji?”
the baptism of Juchanon, from heaven was it, or from the sons of men?
5 Indji ba ba mla ya ni kpamba nda tre, “Kie ta tre Ani shu, ani tre, Naki ingye sa bina kpa ye niwu na?
But they reasoned within themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven, he saith to us, Why did you not believe him?
6 U kita tre anin ni ndi du indji ba ba ta tro wu ni tita don ba kpaye Yohana ana annabi.”
But if we shall say, From men, all the people will stone us; for they are persuaded that Juchanon was a prophet.
7 A naki ba kpa nyime kina to wu ni wayi na.
And they said to him, We know not from whence it is.
8 Yesu tre ni bawu, imeme mina hla ni yiwu na ko ni wani gbengblen a tie ndu biyi na.”
Jeshu saith to them, Nor tell I you by what authority I do these.
9 A tre ni bawu ni misali, “Indji ri a rhon ni irju ma da ba no baya da he ni gbu ri wubar ko
And he began to speak to the people this parable: A certain man planted a vinery, and let it to husbandmen, and removed for a great time.
10 Intoyi wu ndi wu irju kmaye, daye ton indjiri ciki minikoma ni bi tindu ni Irji, du ba nonik'lo kunkro wa ahe ni irju. Ba tru du k'ma hi kpama dana no kpi na da zi da tru du hi kpama.
And at the season he sent his servant to the husbandmen that they should give him of the fruit of the vinery. But the husbandmen beat him, and sent him away empty.
11 A lla tru indji ri hi ni indji bi tie ndu ni Irji du ba ba no glo kukar kni niwu, bakalatsi na wu mumla, da na no kpi na.
And he added and sent another servant; but they beat him also, and maltreated him, and sent him away empty.
12 A lla ton indji ri wutar ma, balaji ciwo ni wu, da tur du hi kpama.
And he added and sent a third; but they also wounded him, and cast him out.
13 Indji wu irju tre, me tie ni he? Metur vri mu wa me kpaye niwu, koba kpaye niwu, dano kpaye niwu.
The lord of the vinery saith, What shall I do? I will send my son, the beloved; now will they see him and reverence him.
14 Bi tie ndu ni irju bato da tre, ni kpamba, da tre, wayi yi a vri wu magijin ma, kpi wa ki ti kiwu, ni ki ni ban malaka ma du zama wu mbu.
But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir: come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.
15 Naki ba tru nu ni miyi irju da wu. Angye indji wu irju ani tie ni ba?
And they cast him out of the vinery, and killed him. What therefore shall the lord of the vinery do to them?
16 Ani ye da wu ba wawu'u bi duba, da ban irju no barimu.” Da ba wo toki, ba tre, “Du na he naki na.”
He will come and destroy those husbandmen, and will give the vinery to others. But when they heard, they said, May this not be!
17 Da Yesu yaba toki, da tre, “Wuyigye bi yi nufin bi wa ba nha-nha zi, 'Tita wa bi mme ba kamba niwu, wawuyi ni zama mafinficin tita?'
But he beheld them, and said, And what is that which is written, The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner?
18 Indji wa rjoku ni tu tita ani tzi kpama ti ziza ziza, wu indji wa rjoku ani cowawu'u.
And every one who shall fall upon this stone shall be broken; and every one on whom it shall fall it will scatter him.
19 Naki wu malaman Attaura wu Firistoci ba wanko wa woh mba ni sa ni kpama ni tonki, da tre ni misalin yi ni tumba, ama dani klu sissri indji ba.
But the chief priests and Sophree sought to lay hands on him in that very hour; but they feared the people, for they knew that concerning them(selves) he had spoken this parable.
20 Ba mla kiya gyegyer me, da ton bi sru klu bu'u, baya ni baba ba bi adalci niwwan kowa samu da vu nitre wa tre, niki ba son da tru ni doka ni tre gona.
And they sent to him spies, who should resemble just men, that they might take him in discourse, and deliver him to the judgment and to the authority of the governor.
21 U ba miyi da tre Ticha, kito wu tre ni tzro wu bi ma, wunati kpi meme ma na wu tie kpi wu bio ma ninkon wu Irji.
And they asked him, and said to him, Doctor, we know that thou speakest and teachest rightly, neither dost thou deceive, but with integrity thou teachest the way of Aloha.
22 Ani kpi wu bima duki han ban ni Kaisar ko ana naki na?
Is it lawful for us to give head-silver to Cesar or not?
23 Yesu tokpi wa bason ba tie da kma ni da tre ni bawu,
But he understood their subtilty, and said, Why tempt you me?
24 Tsro me dinari, a iwu nha ni inde ba nha ni kogon ma? Ba tre, “Kaisar.”
Show me a dinara. Of whom upon it is the image and the inscription? But they said, Of Cesar.
25 A hla bawu ikpi wa, “Kpiwa wu Kaisar, non Kaisar, u kpiwa wu Irji a wu Irji.
Jeshu saith to them, Give then of Cesar's to Cesar, and of Aloha's unto Aloha.
26 Bana iya davu ni lah tre na, amsar tre ba wanuba anoba mamaki, naki bana biyu nyu na.
And they could not take hold of his words before the people; and they wondered at his answer, and were silent.
27 Wu Sadukiyawa bari baye niwu da tre niw biwa ba tre bahu wlunde ni vu wu kle,
BUT some of the Zadukoyee approached, they who say that there is no resurrection;
28 Wu ba miyi da tre, “Ticha, Musa nha nitawu, da tre idan wa vayi ma agu da he ni wa, dana he ni vri na, indji ka bawa vayi ma, da te viri ni vayima.
and they questioned him, and said to him, Doctor, Musha wrote to us that if a man's brother die having a wife who hath not children, his brother shall take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
29 U akwai mri vayi Tangba-wu mumla garwa da gu ba vri,
But there were seven brethren; and the first took; a wife, and died without children.
30 du ni u ha naki.
And the second took his wife, and he died without children.
31 Indji wu tra bawa naki da ye niwu Tankpan ba viri da que.
And the third also took her; and so also the seven of them: and they died and left no children.
32 Naki, wu wa ngame ye que.
Died in the end also the woman.
33 Ni vi wu kle, anha ni son zama ilon ma? Don indji ba gran wa tangba ba wu.
In the resurrection therefore, whose of them shall she be the wife? for the seven of them had taken her.
Jeshu saith to them, The sons of this world take wives, and women become (the wives) of men: (aiōn g165)
35 U biwa ba ya ani babayi bari ni son ninton biwa ba que ye bana gran koba sa ta gran na. (aiōn g165)
but they who of that world are worthy, and of the resurrection which is from among the dead, take not wives, neither do women become (the wives) of men. (aiōn g165)
36 Bana que ngana ba tsra baba Malaiku da zama mini Irji da mini bi sake wu u kle.
Neither again can they die, for they are as the angels; and the children are they of Aloha, because they have become the children of the resurrection.
37 Naki biwa ba que ye ba wlunde na Musa tsro ni bubu wa shafe miji, wa yo Irji ndi Bachi, Ibrahim ni Irji u Irji wu Ishaku wu Irji Yakubu.
But that the dead arise, Musha also showeth; for he commemorateth at the bush, while he saith, The Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Ishok, and the God of Jakub.
38 Zizan ana Irji u kyu na, Ahi Irji u ivri, nitu wawu ndji bi he ni vre niwu.
But he was not the God of the dead, but of the living: for they all live unto him.
39 Imbru malaman Attaura ba kpa nyime nda tre, “Ticha, wu riga ni kpa nyime bi ye.”
And some of the Sophree answered and said to him, Doctor, thou hast well said.
40 Bana kara mye kpi ngana.
And they dared not question him again of any thing.
41 Yesu tre nibawu, “Ba ti nihe ni tre Irji Vvren Dauda?”
AND he said to them, How say the Sophree concerning the Meshicha, that he is the Son of David?
42 Dauda me kima tre ni nvunvu Zabura, Irji tre ni Irji, kuson ni wo kori mu,
And David himself saith in the book of Psalms, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand,
43 Wa me dubi yo ni koshi meduba kma ti bubu son me.
until I put thine adversaries beneath thy feet.
44 Dauda me ayo Kristi, Irji, ani tini he wani tie ni he da tre a vren Dauda?”
If David therefore calleth him Lord, how is he his son?
45 U wa a kle wo ba ndji ba wawu A hla ni mri koh ma ndi,
And while all the people heard, he said to his disciples,
46 “Mla zren ni malaman Attaura ba son zren ni glu bi gran ni kpamba, da son indji duba yaba, da no ba bubu son rigrama ni shishi ndji ni tre wu bra ni bubu son buki.
Beware of the Sophree, who will to walk in stoles, and love the shaloma in public places, and the chief seats in the synagogues, and the chief reclining-places at evening feasts;
47 Da chakpo mba biwu balonmba ba que, da babi bre Irji gburko, naki indji biki ba kpa meme la tre ma.”
who devour the houses of widows, and for the occasion prolong their prayers: these shall receive the greater judgment.
