Luke 21
1 Yesu zu ya da toh indji bi nklen ba si sru baiko ba,
And Jesus looked upon the rich, who cast their oblations into the treasury.
2 Wa a toh iwa u kbo ani tiya kpukpu me, wa ji bubu ba ye ka you ni kagi.
And he saw also a certain poor widow, who cast in two mites.
3 A tre njanji mi hla yu'u, iwa u koh a zan yi.
And he said: Truly I say to you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than any one.
4 indji biyi ba yo ni mi gbugbu u ba. Naki iwa u koh ni miyah ma ayo wawu ikpe di a he niwu.
For all they, from what was superfluous to them, have cast into the receptacle of oblations to God; but she, from her penury, hath cast in all that she possessed.
5 Bari ba tre ni tu tra Irji, yada ba mla tie bi ni tita ni baiko, A tre.
And when some spoke of the temple, as adorned with goodly stones and oblations, Jesus said to them:
6 Ikpi bi yi wa bi si toh, ivi ri ni ye wa tita ri na sun nitu ri na ba na grji ye ni meme'a na.
As for these things, on which ye gaze, the days will come, in which there will not be left a stone upon a stone, that is not cast down.
7 Ba mye, mala, kpi biyi ba ye ni tan? A ngye ni tsro ta inton wa kpi'a ba ti'a?
And they questioned him, and said: Teacher, when will these things be? And what is the sign that they are near to take place?
8 Yesu ka hla ni bawu, mla ya, na du indrjo ye gyru yi na, gbugbu ba ye ninde mu, da tre ndi ame yi me wawu, u inton a tie whewhre, na hu ba na.
And he said to them: See, that ye be not deceived; for many will come in my name, and will say: I am Messiah and the time is near. But go ye not after them.
9 Inde bi woh ba taku da ni tsi bi kana klu sissri na, ni mumla se kpi bi yi ba ye, u kle, gbugblu na ye zizan na.
And when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not afraid; for these things are previously to take place, but the end is not yet come.
10 Wa a hla ni bawu, gbugblu ni lu ni tu gbugblu, mulki ni lu nitu mulki.
For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom;
11 Meme u gbugblu yi ani grju kagon, iyon ni tie ni gbugblu wawu, lilo ni ka gbugblu'a wawu. Ikpi bari ba grji rji shu da no sissri.
and great earthquakes will occur in several places, and famines, and pestilences; and there will be terrors, and trepidations, and great signs from heaven will be seen, and there will be great tempests.
12 Naki kpi biyi du ba ye, ba tsi yi da ti meme kpe ni yiwu, da zu yi ni tra Irji, ba vu yi sru ni brusuna, ba gbi yi hi ni ba chu, baba ngona, nitu inde mu.
But before all these things, they will lay hands upon you, and will persecute you, and will deliver you up to councils and to prison, and will arraign you before kings and governors, on account of my name.
13 Ani he ijou tre.
But it will be to you for a testimony.
14 Na ri mre kpi wa bi tre ni koshi na,
And settle it in your hearts, that ye will not previously seek instruction for making a defence.
15 Me mi no yi trre wa bi tre, di no imrre ndindi wa bi kra yi banaya krie ni yi na.
For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your enemies will be unable to withstand.
16 Ba ti bi, mri vayi, mla bi baba kpukpa bi ba tiyi yah da wu bari bi.
And your parents, and your brothers, and your relatives, and your friends, will deliver you up, and cause some of you to die.
17 Ndji ba wawu bbawu ba kran yi ni tu inde mu.
And ye will be hated by every one, on account of my name.
18 Naki ko futu riri ni tubi na joku na.
But a hair of your head shall not perish.
19 Ni mi vu suron bi bi kpa re bi.
And by your patience, will ye preserve your souls.
20 I hi toh soja ba kru wurushelima you ni tsutsu, bika toh ndi joku ma tie whewhre.
And when ye shall see Jerusalem with an army encompassing it, then know ye, that its destruction draweth nigh.
21 Biwa ba he ni Judiya du ba tsutsu hi ni gblu u bi wa ba he ni mi gbu ba ka don gbu'a u bi wa ba he ni ko rah gbu'a baka ba ri nimi gbu'a na.
Then let them who shall be in Judaea, flee to the mountain district; and let them, who are in the midst of it, flee away; and those in the fields, not enter it.
22 Bi yi ba vi u rju hla, du kpe wa ba han duba kle.
For these are days of vengeance, to fulfill all that is written.
23 Iyah ba bi wa ba hei ne, ni bi no mri sisan ni toh kima, iya nihe ni gbu'a ni nfu ni tu ndji ba.
But woe to them that are with child, and to them that nurse children, in those days; for then will be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people.
24 Inji gban ni kaba hle, ba vu ba kma tie gran ni gbungblu, biwa bana toh Irji na ba chan Wurushelima ni zah, se ivi u bi wa bana toh Irji na nikle
And they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be carried captive to every place. And Jerusalem will be trodden down by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles shall be completed.
25 Igban ni tsro ni Irji, ni wha kpan baba tsitsen, ni meme. Iya ni shu ni gbungblu, ni wrji kpukpa don yi man ni ne.
And there will be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and distress of nations on the earth; and clasping of hands, from astonishment at the noise of the sea;
26 Indji ba tie sissri da ta kukmo da ni gbie kpe wa basi ye ni gbungblu, gbengblen bi shu ba ta chu.
and dismay that driveth out the souls of men, from fear of that which is to come on the earth; and the powers of heaven will be moved.
27 U ba toh vren ndji ni ye ni mi kpalu ni gbengblen ni kikle daukaka ma.
And then will they see the Son of man coming in the clouds, with much power, and with great glory.
28 Inde kpi bi yi basi ye, lunde krikrie ni nzu tumbi. Du ndji wa ni ye kpa yi chuwo a ye whewhre.
And when these things shall begin to be, take courage, and lift up your heads, for your deliverance draweth nigh.
29 Yesu tre nda ka yiyi ni bawu, yah kunkro indhu baba mbru kunkro ba.
And he uttered a similitude to them. Look at the fig-tree, and all the trees.
30 Biyi ni tu bi bika toh ndi iga ati whewhre.
When they bud forth, ye at once understand from them that summer approacheth.
31 Inde bi toh kpe biyi ba he na yi bi toh ndi iye Irji a tie whiwhre.
So also, when ye shall see all these things take place, know ye that the kingdom of God is near.
32 Njanji mi hla ni yiwu, i zan bi bana kle na se kpi bi yi ba ye.
Verily I say to you, That this generation will not pass away, until all these things occur.
33 Shulu ni meme ba kle, ama itre ma na kle na.
Heaven and earth will pass away; but my word will not pass away.
34 Sun ni ya cheme, na du suron mbi ni titan hi na so di wah du na he ni mre u tu mbina kana ye ka yi na troko na.
Take heed to yourselves, that your hearts be, at no time, stupefied by gluttony and ebriety and worldly care; and so that day come upon you unawares.
35 A ni ye ni tu ndji bi gbungblu wawu
For, like a hunter's snare, it will spring upon all them that dwell upon the face of the whole land.
36 Sun ni wri di ta bre chachu du yi he ni gbengblen ndi nawo ni kpi bi wa ba ye'a, wa bi kri ni kbu Vren Indji
Be ye therefore vigilant, at all times, and prayerful; that ye may be worthy to escape the things that are to take place, and may stand before the Son of man.
37 Ni nton kima, a si hla tre ni bawu ni tra Irji, ka rju nichu da ka sun ni bubu ri wa ba you ndi Olivet.
And, in the daytime he taught in the temple, and at night he went out and lodged in the mount, called the Place of Olives.
38 Indji ba rju gbugbun ni bubu ble ye ni woh wu ni tra Irji.
And all the people came early to him in the temple, to hear his discourse.
