Luke 4
1 U Yesu he shu ni Ruhu tsatsar, a kma ye rji ni nne Urdu'a, Ruhu nji wu hi ni miji
On returning from the Jordan, full of the Holy Spirit, Jesus was led by the power of the Spirit through the Wilderness for forty days, tempted by the Devil.
2 niki a tie vi wlon nkpu nza ka meme brji ka tsra wu. Ni nton ki ana rhi kpe na, u ni klekle'a iyon vu babran.
All that time he ate nothing; and, when it was over, he became hungry.
3 Ibrji a to naki nda mye “wuta tre wu vren Irji, kma tita yi tie bredi.”
So the Devil said to him: “If you are God’s Son, tell this stone to become a loaf of bread.”
4 Yesu a sa niwu ndi, “itre Irji a hla ndi, ndji na rhi bredi mba nda son na.”
And Jesus answered him: “Scripture says — ‘It is not on bread alone that man is to live.’”
5 Ibrji toh naki nda nji Yesu hi ni tu ngblu nda tsro wu wawu ngbungblu'a nimi fime nton'a.
And the Devil led Jesus up, and showing him in a single moment all the kingdoms of the earth, said to him:
6 Wu brji hla ni wu ndi, “Mi nowu Chu ni konge bi ndindi, don ba ka ba ne, u mi ya ka no ndji wa mi son'a.
“I will give you all this power, and the splendour of them; for it has been given into my hands and I give it to whom I wish.
7 Wu ta kuqu mgbarju ndi gbre san mu, ba kma tie u me.”
If you, therefore, will do homage before me, it shall all be yours.”
8 U Yesu kpa sa'wu nda hla ndi, “Itre Irji hla ndi, 'Wu gbre san Bachi me kankrji ma, ndi hu wawu yi.'”
And Jesus answered him: “Scripture says — ‘Thou shalt do homage to the Lord thy God, and worship him only.’”
9 Ibrji a nji Yesu hi nimi Wurishelima nda yo'wu ni tu nkan u koh Irji'a, nda hla niwu ndi, “Wuti hi vren Irji'a, za grji rji ni wayi'a.
The Devil next led him into Jerusalem, and, placing him on the parapet of the Temple, said: “If you are God’s Son throw yourself down from here,
10 Itre Irji hla ndi, 'Irji ni dun Maleku ma njiwu, na dun ba hra'wu,
for Scripture says — ‘He will give his angels commands about thee, to guard thee safely,’
11 U, 'Ba nzu wu nji rji ni wo mba, don dun wu na wru za ni tita na.'”
And ‘On their hands they will upbear thee, Lest ever thou shouldst strike thy foot against a stone.’”
12 Yesu a hla wu “Wuna tsra Irji Bachi me to na.”
But Jesus answered him: “It is said — ‘Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.’”
13 Ibrji a tsra Yesu nda don wu me sai ton ri, nda hi kpama.
When he had tried every kind of temptation, the Devil left Jesus, till another opportunity.
14 Naki, Yesu a kma hi ni Galili nizo 'Ruhu Maitsarki.' Itre ma a zren ni gbungblu kagon ni wre ki.
Moved by the power of the Spirit, Jesus returned to Galilee. Reports about him spread through all that neighbourhood;
15 Nikglaki Yesu fara tsro ba terma. ni tra ma u ndi wawu mba ka gbre san.
and he began to teach in their Synagogues, and was honoured by everyone.
16 A wru niki nda ye ni Nazarat, ni wrji wa ba raya ni wu yada Asaba ri ni tra u beri ni viwu wu bre, nda wlunde ni bla nvunvu u tre ma.
Coming to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, Jesus, as was his custom, went on the Sabbath into the Synagogue, and stood up to read the Scriptures.
17 Nvunvu wa bi tie ndu Irji wu Annebi Ishaya. Abwu nda bla nvunvu a nda to bubu ba nha tre'a,
The book given him was that of the Prophet Isaiah; and Jesus opened the book and found the place where it says —
18 “Ruhu Irji he niwu me, wawugblegben mu a ton me ndi me hi hla tre ndindi ni bi ya.”A ton me nda ne gbengble ma dun mi hi tre ni biwa ba hei ni lo ndi cu ba cuwo, di bwu shishi ni bi fei, ndi kpa bi wa ba myen ba,
‘The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, For he has consecrated me to bring Good News to the poor, He has sent me to proclaim release to captives and restoration of sight to the blind, To set the oppressed at liberty,
19 Dun mi hi hla 'nton' wa Bachi kpa ny'em nita.”
to proclaim the accepted year of the Lord.’
20 A ka nvunvu ka no ndi wa ani gri ni wu'a nda kuson. Shishi ko nha ni tra Irji'a kma hi ni wu.
Then, closing the book and returning it to the attendant, he sat down. The eyes of all in the Synagogue were fixed upon him,
21 A wlunde bubbu terniba wu, “Luwa itre Bachi, ri gregreme ni nton mbi.”
and Jesus began: “This very day this passage has been fulfilled in your hearing.”
22 Ko nha niki tretre wubi ma niwu nda tie sissri domin kikle tre wa to rju ni nu ma u ba mie. “Wayi ana viri Isuwu nan?”
All who were present spoke well of him, and were astonished at the beautiful words that fell from his lips. “Is not he Joseph’s son?” they asked.
23 A tre ni bawu, “a njanji bi tre ni shap-shap nimu, 'bi no mwu, bana si no kpa mbi si ki. Kpe wa wu tie ni Kapanawun, tie naki ni gbume.'”
“Doubtless,” said Jesus, “you will remind me of the saying — ‘Doctor, cure yourself;’ and you will say ‘Do here in your own country all that we have heard that has been done at Capernaum.’
24 Ama a tre ni bawu, “Njanji mu me hla ni yiwu, ba ndji wa ani tie ndu Irji u baka kpa'wu ni gbuma.
I tell you,” he continued, “that no Prophet is acceptable in his own country.
25 Njanji mu mi hla ni yiwu, mba bi ya ba ba ni Israila ni nton Ilisha, ni nton wa shulu a kaka ni bwu, hra sei trani wha tanne, meme yon a ye ni gbu wawu.
There were, doubtless, many widows in Israel in Elijah’s days, when the heavens were closed for three years and six months, and a severe famine prevailed throughout the country;
26 Bana ton Elia hi ni gburi na Zarephat ni Sidon wa iwa ri wu kpla ni son ki.
and yet it was not to one of them that Elijah was sent, but to a widow at Zarephath in Sidonia.
27 Wu bi chong-rju bahe ni Isrela suse ni me Elisha Annebi du ba wa kpari cuwo se Naaman wu he Syria.
And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of the Prophet Elisha, yet it was not one of them who was made clean, but Naaman the Syrian.”
28 Du indji ba ni mi tra wu Irji ba tie nfu ni ba wo'a.
All the people in the Synagogue, as they listened to this, became enraged.
29 Ba wlu ni nfu nda gbi nda ni mi gbuu nda kji he ni tu ngblu ri wa ba meh Komba ni tu ma, ba son ba tru taga rhi ni tu ngblu'a.
Starting up, they drove Jesus out of the town, and led him to the brow of the hill on which their town stood, intending to hurl him down.
30 A ri zu ni tsutsu mba bana tona wa a hi ni buburi.
But he passed through the middle of the crowd and went on his way.
31 Ziza'a ni gbuyi a grji hi ni Kapanawum ni gburi, ni Galili ndani tsro ba ni vi wu cacu wa (asabat) bana tindu na.
Then Jesus went down to Capernaum, a city in Galilee. On the Sabbath he taught the people.
32 Ba tie nfu niwu ni tre wani tre nibawu, u yi sa.
They were amazed at his teaching, because his words were spoken with authority.
33 Nimi tra wu bre Irji indiri he ni meme ruhu ibrji, ayi gbangban me,
In the Synagogue there was a man with the spirit of a foul demon in him, who called out loudly:
34 “A nge hada wu ni ta Yesu u Nazarat wu ye wuta mu? Me to kowu nha, vren Irji wu tie zren geger.”
“Stop! What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are — the Holy One of God!”
35 Yesu bwu shishi ni meme ruhu nda tre, “Na bu nyu ndi tre na! rju ni kpama” Meme brji a riga da ban taga ni memeye ndatsutsu ndi ba meme ruhu brji a rju ni kpama, dana tie kpe na.
But Jesus rebuked the demon. “Be silent! Come out from him,” he said. The demon flung the man down in the middle of the people, and then came out from him, without causing him further harm.
36 Naki indi batoh kpe wu mamaki nda kamba nda ni tre nituma, ko nha ni kpama, “Nda tre a wani iri tre mu naki? A gbi ton ni meme ruhu'a dun rju nda kagu'a cuwo, wa he toki.
And they were all lost in amazement, and kept saying to one another: “What words are these? For he gives his commands to the foul spirits with a marvellous authority, and they come out.”
37 Itre ma atsra ni ko ni ntseyi ni klamba.
And rumours about Jesus traveled through every place in the neighbourhood.
38 NambaYesu a bri tra wu bre niki nda hi nikoh Bitrus, ni nton ki iyi wama ana he ni sikpa nadon zazabi a vu, indi ba bre dun zoba ni nde mako ani wlunde.
On leaving the Synagogue, Jesus went into Simon’s house. Now Simon’s mother-in-law was suffering from a severe attack of fever, and they asked Jesus to cure her.
39 Yesu aki ni kotuma nda gboshishi ni meme brji nda zu zazabi du bri niwu; ba wu ton wa he naki niwu ana wu nton a dalu fara sru biri ni wuh.
Bending over her, he rebuked the fever; the fever left her, and she immediately got up and began to wait upon them.
40 Inton wa Irji nihe qu, indi gbugbu wu ba mmri vayi mba niye ni Yesu dun noba sikpa ni lulo iri-iri. Bari a sawo ni kpamba megyen baka fe sikpamba.
At sunset, all who had friends suffering from various diseases took them to Jesus; and he placed his hands upon every one of them and cured them.
41 Meme ruhu gbugbuu ba rju ni kpamba, bari bayi nda tre “Wu vren Irji” Yesu a gbonshishi ni meme ruhu ba nda zu ba dubana tre na don ba to ndi wawuyi Kristi
And even demons came out from many people, screaming ‘You are the Son of God.’ Jesus rebuked them, and would not allow them to speak, because they knew that he was the Christ.
42 Ka mble kpan, waa rju hi bubu wa ba indji gbugbuu ba wawuyi nda to ni bubuki. Bana kpa nhime du kaba don na.
At daybreak, Jesus went out and walked to a lonely spot. But crowds of people began to look for him; and they came to where he was and tried to detain him and prevent his leaving them.
43 An hla ni bawu ndi wawu nison da cigaba ni bla tre Irji ni gbu bari, domin a hi kpa wa ba ton me ye ni wayi'a.
Jesus, however, said to them: “I must take the Good News of the Kingdom of God to the other town also, for that was why I was sent.”
44 Naki nda cigaba ni noba tre Irji ni du Irji koni ntseyi ni kla Judia.
And he continued to make his proclamation in the Synagogues of Judea.
