Luke 24
1 Ni bwu mble, ni vi mumla wu Sati'a, ba ye ni bubu ibe'a nda nji nnye wu bwa ni kmo, wandi bana ti'a.
On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women came to the tomb, bringing the spices they had prepared.
2 Ba to ndi ba nyi kikle tita wa ka nyu ibe rju.
They found the stone rolled away from the tomb,
3 Ba ri nimi nda toh ndi k'mo Bachi Yesu na he na.
but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.
4 A hye niki, ba ri he ni tsishishi ni tu kpe yi, ndji ha ba rju kri ni ba ni inklon wa zan pri me.
While they were puzzling over this, suddenly two men in radiant apparel stood beside them.
5 Niki mba-ba ba ti sissri nda kukru ni shishi mba ni meme, i ba tre ni mba-ba ndi, “Ngye du yi ni wa ndji wu vrhi nimi biwa ba qu ye'a?”
As the women bowed their faces to the ground in terror, the two men asked them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead?
6 Ana he ni wayi na, ba nzu lunde ye. Rhimre ni tre ma niwa a rhi he ni Galili,
He is not here; He has risen! Remember how He told you while He was still in Galilee:
7 ndi ba guchi vu Vren Ndji nu ndji bi lah tre, ba gran ni kunkro, ni vi wu tra ani la lunde.
‘The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.’”
8 Imba ba ba tika itre ma,
Then they remembered His words.
9 nda kma don bubu ibe'a nda bla ni wlon don ri'a baba mbru ndji bari, wawu ikpi biyi ba
And when they returned from the tomb, they reported all these things to the Eleven and to all the others.
10 Niki, Maryamu Magdalin, Joanna, Maryamu iyi Yakubu, ni mba ba rima, mle, baka vu bla ni manzani ba.
It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them who told this to the apostles.
11 Ama itre wa a bla bawu a rju choloncho ni manzani ba, i bana kpanyime ni mba-ba na.
But their words seemed like nonsense to them, and they did not believe the women.
12 I Bitrus a lu kri vu tsu hi ni bubu be'a, nda ku dran nda ya mima. A to ba pri nklon wu kpa ma ba shii zini kosan. Bitrus a kma hi ni koh ma, nda ni rhimre ikpi wa ba he'a
Peter, however, got up and ran to the tomb. And after bending down and seeing only the linen cloths, he went away, wondering to himself what had happened.
13 Ni vi baki, ndji ha ni mimba ba vu nko tayi ni vi gbu Emmawus, wandi a mili ttamgba ni mbru rji ni Urushelima.
That same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.
14 Ba si tre ni kpamba nitu ikpi biwa ba si zren'a.
They were talking with each other about everything that had happened.
15 Niwa basi tre nda ni mye kpamba, Yesu kima a ye nda si zren ni ba.
And as they talked and deliberated, Jesus Himself came up and walked along with them.
16 Shishi mba ana bwu du ba mla toh ka ahi nha na.
But their eyes were kept from recognizing Him.
17 Yesu a hla bawu ndi, Bi ki zren nini tre nitu ngye, hambiwu ni ton nkoh? Ba kma kuki nda kri ngbonme.
He asked them, “What are you discussing so intently as you walk along?” They stood still, with sadness on their faces.
18 Iri mba, ni nde Cleopas a sa niwu ndi, “Wu nklen me yi ni gbu Urushelima wuna toh ikpi wa basi zren ni vivi yi na?
One of them, named Cleopas, asked Him, “Are You the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in recent days?”
19 Yesu a mye ba ndi, “ikpi bi rime?” Ba sa wu ndi, “Ikpi nitu Yesu wu Nazarat wandi ana Anabi kikle ni ndu, mba lan tre ni shishi Irji mba ni ndji wawu'u,
“What things?” He asked. “The events involving Jesus of Nazareth,” they answered. “This man was a prophet, powerful in speech and action before God and all the people.
20 Wawu yi kikle Prist, baba bi ninkon wu gbu'a ba vu nu du ba lo u wu qu nda klo ni giciye.
Our chief priests and rulers delivered Him up to the sentence of death, and they crucified Him.
21 Kina yo suron ndi wawu yi ni ye kpa Israila chuwo. E, nha ni kima, a vi tra zizan wa ikpi biyi ba he.
But we were hoping He was the One who would redeem Israel. And besides all this, it is the third day since these things took place.
22 Ngari, mba bari, nimi mbu ba rju ni tre wa anuta sissri, nitu hi mba ni bubu ibe ni bwubwu mble.
Furthermore, some of our women astounded us. They were at the tomb early this morning,
23 Ba hi ka toh ndi kmo ma na he na, nda kma ye si tre baka toh Maleka wa a hla bawu ndi a he ni sissren.
but they did not find His body. They came and told us they had seen a vision of angels, who said that Jesus was alive.
24 Ndji mbu bari ba hi ni bubu ibe nda ka to tsra ni kpe wa mbaba ba hla'a. Ama bana to'o na.
Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had described. But Him they did not see.”
25 Yesu a hla bawu ndi, “Bi ruru ndji, bi si sron kpanyime ni kpe wa anabawa ba tre!
Then Jesus said to them, “O foolish ones, how slow are your hearts to believe all that the prophets have spoken!
26 Ana bi zan du Kristi sha ya ikpe biyi rhi nda ri ni nzuhon ma na?”
Was it not necessary for the Christ to suffer these things and then to enter His glory?”
27 Niki rji ni Musa, zu ni anabawa wawu, Yesu a mla bla ni bawu ikpi nitu kpama nimi nvunvu tre Irji.
And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, He explained to them what was written in all the Scriptures about Himself.
28 Ni ba tie whiwhre ni vi gbu wa bata hi niwu'a, Yesu a ti to ani zren hi guchi.
As they approached the village where they were headed, He seemed to be going farther.
29 Mle ba bre u ndi, “Son nita, yalu si tie, i ivi'a ti wiewiere wu kle ye. Mle Yesu a kpanyime nda ka son niba.
But they pleaded with Him, “Stay with us, for it is nearly evening and the day is almost over.” So He went in to stay with them.
30 Niwa a kuson nda ni rhi niba, a ban bredi'a, yo lulu niwu, nda nziga nu ba.
While He was reclining at the table with them, He took bread, spoke a blessing and broke it, and gave it to them.
31 Shishi mba a kri bwu i baka mla toh wu, wa kri kado ni shishi mba.
Then their eyes were opened and they recognized Jesus—and He disappeared from their sight.
32 Ba hla ni kpamba, “Suron mbu ana si'a gon ni mi-mbu niwa a si tre ni nkon, nda tsro ta nimi nvunvu tre Irji na?”
They asked each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us as He spoke with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?”
33 Ba kri lunde ni ton kima nda vu nkon kma hi ni Urushelima. Ba ka ri ni wlon don ri ba, nda toh ba baba bi wa bana he ni ba'a,
And they got up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven and those with them, gathered together
34 nda hla ndi “A njanji, Bachi mbu lunde, nda tsro tuma ni Siman,”
and saying, “The Lord has indeed risen and has appeared to Simon!”
35 Niki ba vu kpi wa ba toh ninkon mba wa ba mla toh Yesu ni andi a ban bredi si ga nuba a.
Then the two told what had happened on the road, and how they had recognized Jesus in the breaking of the bread.
36 Niwa basi tre kpi biyi, Yesu kima, a rju kri ni mimba nda tre ndi, “Si suron son niyi.”
While they were describing these events, Jesus Himself stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.”
37 Ba ti gbri me i sissri a vu ba. Ba ban ndi ba toh ibrji ma mu.
But they were startled and frightened, thinking they had seen a spirit.
38 Yesu a hla bawu ndi, “A ngye du yi ni tie sissri? A hi ngye ni lo yi ni suron?
“Why are you troubled,” Jesus asked, “and why do doubts arise in your hearts?
39 Toh iwo mba iza mu. A hi me kimu. Sa wo nitu mu ni toh. Ibrji na he ni nma kpa mba ququ na wandi bisi to mi he niwu na.”
Look at My hands and My feet. It is I Myself. Touch Me and see—for a spirit does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.”
40 Niwa a kle tre toyi a tsro ba iwo mba iza ma.
And when He had said this, He showed them His hands and feet.
41 Niki me, bana kpanyime na, nitu ngyiri ni sissri. Yesu a mye ba ndi, “Bi he ni ikpe wu rhi?”
While they were still in disbelief because of their joy and amazement, He asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?”
42 Ba nu vi lambe wa ba sron'a.
So they gave Him a piece of broiled fish,
43 Akpa nda rhi ni shishi mba.
and He took it and ate it in front of them.
44 A hla bawu ndi, “Biyi yi ba lan tre mu, wandi mi hla ni yiwu niwa mi he ni yi, ndi ikpi wa ba nha ba ni nvunvu doka Musa baba anabawa ni Zabura ba wrhu he toki.
Jesus said to them, “These are the words I spoke to you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about Me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms.”
45 Alu bwu mre suron mba du ba mla to nvunvu tre Irji.
Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures.
46 A hla bawu ndi, toki ba nha ndi Kristi ni shaya nda lunde rji ni qu ni vi wu tra.
And He told them, “This is what is written: The Christ will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day,
47 Kma suron wrhu ni la tre ni kpa wrehle lah tre ma. Hi bla ni ndi kagon ngbungblu rhi ni Urushelima, ni ndema.
and in His name repentance and forgiveness of sins will be proclaimed to all nations, beginning in Jerusalem.
48 Bi toh ikpi biyi ni shishi-mbi.
You are witnesses of these things.
49 Ya, mi si ton yi nitu ikpe wa Timu a rhentse ni tuma. Bi gben ni mi gbuyi nitu ba kayi ni nklon gbengblen rji ni shulu ri.
And behold, I am sending the promise of My Father upon you. But remain in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.”
50 Niki Yesu a wrhu ni ba nda hi wiewiere ni Betani, nda nzu wo ma nda yo lulu ni bawu.
When Jesus had led them out as far as Bethany, He lifted up His hands and blessed them.
51 Ni wa a ta yo lulu ni bawu, ba kri ban'u hi ni shulu.
While He was blessing them, He left them and was carried up into heaven.
52 Mle ba ku nzu ndema, nda k'ma yi ni Urushelima kikle ngyiri.
And they worshiped Him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy,
53 Ba si'a ki chachu ni tra Irji nda ni tie lulu niwu.
praising God continually in the temple.
