Luke 5
1 Ba he u gbugbu ndji ba ye ka Yesu ndi ba wo tre Irji, u wa k'li ni nyu kikle ma teku Janisaret.
And it came to pass, as the crowd pressed on him to hear the word of God, that he was standing by the lake of Gennesaret:
2 A toh mmri jirgi harhi bari ba zi ba ni nyu ma. Bi vu lambe'a ba rju kaki ngla rjirji u vu lambe'a.
and he saw two ships standing by the lake, but the fishermen, having come down from them, were washing their nets.
3 Yesu ari mi jirgi ri wa a u Siman nda hla wu ndu tru rju ma ye gban me ni kora. A kuson nimi nda tsro ndji ba tre Irji ni jirgi'a.
And getting into one of the ships, which was Simon's, he asked him to draw out a little from the land; and he sat down and taught the crowds out of the ship.
4 Da a hla kle bawu a tre ni Siman, “Nji jirgi'a hi mima ndi kata hi ni honlon ma.”
But when he ceased speaking, he said to Simon, Draw out into the deep [water] and let down your nets for a haul.
5 Siman kasa wu nda tre, “Tie koh mu, ki tie ya kle cu'a ndi na vu ko pke na, amma ni wa u tre'a mi kayo.”
And Simon answering said to him, Master, having laboured through the whole night we have taken nothing, but at thy word I will let down the net.
6 Da ba tie to wa a hla, ba vu lambebabran u rjirji u vu lambe'a ti su.
And having done this, they enclosed a great multitude of fishes. And their net broke.
7 Mlen baka tie wo ni mbru mba nimi jirgi rima ndu ba ye zo ba. Ba ye nda vu lambe shu ni jirgi harli ba u jirgi ba bata grji hi nci ma.
And they beckoned to their partners who were in the other ship to come and help them, and they came, and filled both the ships, so that they were sinking.
8 Amma Siman Bitrus, da'a to a he toyi, wa gbru ku ni Yesu ngbarju, nda tre hi don me, Bachi, me ndji u la tre.
But Simon Peter, seeing it, fell at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, Lord.
9 A tie sissri, wawu ni biwa bana he niwu, don gbugbu lambe wa ba vu'a.
For astonishment had laid hold on him, and on all those who were with him, at the haul of fishes which they had taken;
10 Ba Yakubu mba Yohana imri Zabadi, bana kpukpan Siman. Yesu a hla ni Siman, na klu sissri na, don rji ni zizanyi hi ko shishi, u ta vu ndji.
and in like manner also on James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Fear not; henceforth thou shalt be catching men.
11 Da ba nji jirgi ba ye ni ra, ba ka kpi mba don wawu nda huu.
And having run the ships on shore, leaving all they followed him.
12 Ba zihe u wa he ni gburi, indji ri u lilo kpurju a he ni ki. Da a toh Yesu, a tie gbru kugru ni shishi nda bre Yesu nda tre “Bachi, u tie kpanyime u toh kpa me tie ndindi.
And it came to pass as he was in one of the cities, that behold, there was a man full of leprosy, and seeing Jesus, falling upon his face, he besought him saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou art able to cleanse me.
13 Yesu n'me wo ma ka gbire nda tre, “Mi nhime. Kpa den.” Gbla me lilo ka rju donwu.
And stretching forth his hand he touched him, saying, I will; be thou cleansed: and immediately the leprosy departed from him.
14 Amma ndu na hla dio ti na nda hla wu, “Hi kpame ndi hi tsro tume ni Pirist ndi nno hadaya u wa ba tsarkake wu'a na wa dokaMusa tre, ndu sheda bawu.”
And he enjoined him to tell no one; but go, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing as Moses ordained, for a testimony to them.
15 Amma itre ma vra shu hi gbugbanmu u gbugbu ndji baka nji kamba ye wo'u babu tsuro nda den bi lilo.
But the report concerning him was spread abroad still more, and great crowds came together to hear, and to be healed from their infirmities.
16 Amma ana k'ma hi miji nda bre Irji.
And he withdrew himself, and was about in the desert [places] and praying.
17 Aye ni viri aka si tsro, u farisawa ni bi tsro Ataurat ba ye rji ni mmri gbu bi Galili ni Yahudiya u Wurishelima ba ki ni kii. Ngbengble Bachi ndu den a he ni wu.
And it came to pass on one of the days, that he was teaching, and there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, who were come out of every village of Galilee and Judaea and [out of] Jerusalem; and [the] Lord's power was [there] to heal them.
18 Indji bari baka ban indji wa a qu kpa ni ta ba nda ye, ba wa nkoh u nji rihi hama wa ba nji hi zi ni k'bu Yesu.
And lo, men bringing upon a couch a man who was paralysed; and they sought to bring him in, and put [him] before him.
19 Don ikpe ndi wa ba he'a, ba to me nda hon ni tu tra nda grji wu hi ni meme zu ni ndo a ri ni tsutsu ndji ni ko shishi Yesu.
And not finding what way to bring him in, on account of the crowd, going up on the housetop they let him down through the tiles, with his little couch, into the midst before Jesus.
20 Ni toh bangaskiya mba, Yesu tre, “Iwu ndji, ba wru la tre me hlega wu.”
And seeing their faith, he said, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.
21 Bi nha ni Farisawa baka wlu mye nd tre, “Ahi nha mu si tre la tre ba? Ahi nha ni wru latre ndji hle wu hamma ni Irji kima.
And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason [in their minds], saying, Who is this who speaks blasphemies? Who is able to forgive sins but God alone?
22 Amma Yesu a toh mre dri mba nda sa bawu, “A ngyeri ti rhi u bi mye kpame kpe yi ni suron?
But Jesus, knowing their reasonings, answering said to them, Why reason ye in your hearts?
23 A rime na ti di tre'u na? 'Ba wru latre me hle' 'wu ka wlunde ndi zren?'
which is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Rise up and walk?
24 Amma ndu yi to ndi vivren ndjiahe ni gbengble ni ngbungblu u wru latre hle, a hla ni ndji u qu kpa- me hla wu wlunde, ban tabli me ndi hi koh.'”
But that ye may know that the Son of man has power on earth to forgive sins, he said to the paralysed man, I say to thee, Arise, and take up thy little couch and go to thine house.
25 A ti wru wlunde ni shishi mba nda ban tabli wa ana kru ni tuma. A vu gon hi kpama ni koh ma, nda ni gbre Irji san.
And immediately standing up before them, having taken up that whereon he was laid, he departed to his house, glorifying God.
26 Ko nha a tie sissri nda gbre Irji San. Sissri shu bawu suron u ba tre, “Ki toh ikpi wa ba nna gbengble tre.
And astonishment seized all, and they glorified God, and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things to-day.
27 Ni wa a kle'a, Yesu a rju niki naka toh indji u kpa haraji wa indema hi Lawi, son ni mi bru u kpa haraji. A tre ni wu, “Hu me.”
And after these things he went forth and saw a tax-gatherer, Levi by name, sitting at the receipt of taxes, and said to him, Follow me.
28 Lawi a wlu nda hu nda ka kpi ma wawuu don.
And having left all, rising up, he followed him.
29 Lawi hi ka tie ngan ni Yesu ni koh ma. Bi kpa haraji ba ka gbugbu niki ni ndi bari wa ba ka rhi biri ni tebru riri ni Yesu.
And Levi made a great entertainment for him in his house, and there was a great crowd of tax-gatherers and others who were at table with them.
30 Amma Farisawa ni bi nha ba renyu ni mri koh ma nda, Ingye sa bi ki rhi ndi ni so ni bi kpa haraji ni bi latre bayi?
And their scribes and the Pharisees murmured at his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with tax-gatherers and sinners?
31 Yesu sa bawu, “Indji wa ba he piyan me bana du'u den na, sai bi wa ba lo'a.
And Jesus answering said to them, They that are in sound health have not need of a physician, but those that are ill.
32 Mi na ye yo bi ndindi na amma mi ye ni bi latre ndu kpa tre Irji.
I am not come to call righteous [persons], but sinful [ones] to repentance.
33 Ba tre wu, mri ko Yohana ba zan son hlan ma ni bre Irji, u mri koh Farisawa ngame. Amma mri koh me ba rhi nda ni so.”
And they said to him, Why do the disciples of John fast often and make supplications, in like manner those also of the Pharisees, but thine eat and drink?
34 Yesu aka tre ni ba, “Ahi ndji rime ni yo kpukpan iwa sa vu nyu u iwasa rhi he ni ba rhi?
And he said to them, Can ye make the sons of the bridechamber fast when the bridegroom is with them?
35 Amma ivi ni ye wa ba ban iwasa'a hi nda ka ba don u ni nton ki ba vu nyu.
But days will come when also the bridegroom will have been taken away from them; then shall they fast in those days.
36 Yesu a tre mba ngaoli ni misali. “Bana nha pli sama ka mla wran k'mo mana. Ani ta tie toki, ani y'ba pli sa, u plisa na k'li niwu k'mo'a na.
And he spoke also a parable to them: No one puts a piece of a new garment upon an old garment, otherwise he will both rend the new, and the piece which is from the new will not suit with the old.
37 Ba ndi wa ani wine sama ni mi cice imbu - ntan. Ini ta tie toki u wine sa ani yra mbu'a u wine ka kuhle, u imbu - ntan ni tie me.
And no one puts new wine into old skins, otherwise the new wine will burst the skins, and it will be poured out, and the skins will be destroyed;
38 Amma wine sama ba suru ni mi mbu-ntan sama.
but new wine is to be put into new skins, and both are preserved.
39 Indji wa'a so wine rji mi cice imbu-ntan ani son so don ani tre wine k'mo'a abi zan.
And no one having drunk old wine [straightway] wishes for new, for he says, The old is better.
