Luke 6
1 A he ni vi u Sabat u Yesu si zu ni rju kpu u mrli ko ma baka wro wlo kpu'a won ni wo mba, nda tan.
And on a sabbath it occurred, as Jesus walked among the tilled grounds, that his disciples plucked ears, and rubbed them in their hands and ate.
2 Amma Farisawa ba ri ba tre, “Ani tu ngye rli bi ki tie kpie'a bana nyme ndu ba tie'u ni Sabat na?”
And some of the Pharisees said to them: Why do ye that, which it is not lawful to do on the sabbath?
3 Yesu, ni tre ma, a kasa bawu, “Bi na kra kpie'a Dauda ni lilon bi wa ba he ni wu ba tie'a na?
Jesus replied, and said to them: Have ye not read what David did, when he was hungry, he and those with him?
4 A ri ni tra Irji nda ban bredi wa ba ka zi, tan nda nno ndji wa ba he ni wu'a tan ngame, wandi a na he ni tu nkon na, don ana Prist nkankle ba tan.”
How he entered into the house of God, and took and ate the bread of the Lord's table, and gave it to those that were with him; which it was not lawful, except for the priests only, to eat?
5 Niki a hla bawu, “Vuvren ndi a baci u Sabat.”
And he said to them: The Son of man is lord of the sabbath.
6 Ba he u Sabat ri la ye, Yesu ka hi tsro ba ni tra Irji. Indi ri he ki nda so wo.
And on another sabbath, he entered a synagogue and taught. And a man was there, whose right hand was withered.
7 Bi nha ni Farisawa ba yo shishi nda to ka ani den dio ni vi u sabat, don ndu ba renyu niwu.
And the Scribes and Pharisees watched him, whether he would heal on the sabbath; that they might be able to accuse him.
8 Amma wa'a to dri mba nda tre ni indi u son wo'a, “Wlunde ye kukru ni tsutsu ndi ni wa.” Igu u soh wo a wlu hi ka kri ni ki.
And as he knew their thoughts, he said to the man with a withered hand: Rise and come into the midst of the congregation. And when he came and stood there,
9 Yesu tre ni ba, “Mi mye yi, Ahe tu nkon ndu ba tie zizi ka meme ni Sabat, ndu ba n'ra rai kpa ka ndu ba kpa tie meme?”
Jesus said to them: I ask you, What is it lawful to do on the sabbath? that which is good? or that which is evil? to save life or to destroy it?
10 Niki yi, a ya ba kagon wawu'u nda hla ni guwa, “N'me wo me rju ra.” A tie toki u wo'a ka tie ndindi.
And he looked upon them all; and then said to him, Stretch forth thy hand. And he stretched out his hand, and it was restored like the other.
11 Amma ba vra nfu nda tre ni kpamba ko ba tie Yesu ni he.
And they were filled with envy; and they conferred one with another, what they should do to Jesus.
12 Ba zi he wa ka ye hon hi ngblu nda ka bre Irji. A ban Chu'a wawu-u bre Irji.
And in those days, Jesus retired to a mountain to pray; and he passed the night there, in prayer to God.
13 Wa imble nhra, a yo mri koh ma hi kpama nda ju wlon don ha rji mi mba, a yo ba ndi Mazani.
And when the day dawned, he called his disciples, and selected from them twelve, whom he named Legates:
14 Ba nde Mazani ana ba Siman ( wa a hi Bitrus ngame'a) u vayi ma Andarawus, Yakubu, Yohana, Filibus, Batalomiyu,
Simon whom he named Cephas, and Andrew his brother, and James, and John, and Philip, and Bartholomew,
15 Matiyu, Toma, Yakubu ivren Alfaus, Siman wa ba yo Zilot,
and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alpheus, and Simon who was called Zelotes,
16 Yahuda ivren Yakubu ni Yahuda Iskaroti, wa a ye le wu'a.
and Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.
17 Yesu a grji ngblu'a baba hi ka kri ni meme ni kpentren ndi wa ba mri koh ma u ni gbugbu ndji wa ba rji ni Yahudiya ni Wurushelima ni bi nyu kikle nne u Taya mba Sidon.
And Jesus descended with them, and stood in the plain; and a great company of his disciples, and a multitude of assembled people, from all Judaea, and from Jerusalem and from the seashore of Tyre and Sidon; who came to hear his discourse, and to be healed of their diseases;
18 Ba ye ndi wa wo Yesu nda ndu den lilo mba ngame. Indji wa ba zi tiya ni wo brji'a ba kpa den.
and they who were afflicted by unclean spirits: and they were healed.
19 Ko nha ni j'bu ndi ba n'ra kon u kpre don gbengblen u den si'a rju rji ni wu, u wa a den ndji mba wawu'u.
And the whole multitude sought to touch him; for there went a virtue out of him and healed them all.
20 A kaya mri koh ma ba nda tre, “Bi hi bi lulu, biyi bi ya, don mulki Irji a hi u mbi.
And he lifted his eyes upon his disciples, and said: Blessed are ye poor; for the kingdom of God is yours.
21 Bi hi bi lulu biyi bi tie yon zizan'a, don bi wrji. Bi hi bi lulu biyi wa bi yi zizan'a, don bi nza.
Blessed are ye that hunger now; for ye will be satisfied. Blessed are ye that weep now; for ye will laugh.
22 Bi hi bi lulu niwa indji bata kran yi, u idan ba ba ya'yi hlega nda mre yi nda kamba ni nde mbi a nda u brji, nitu Ivren Irji.
Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and repel you, and revile you, and cast out your names as base, for the Son of man's sake.
23 Ngyri ni vi ki ndi briku don ba han ye kikle di ni shulu, e ba Bachi mba ba tie bi kpie ki ni Anabawa ba.
Rejoice in that day and exult, for your reward is great in heaven; for so did their fathers to the prophets.
24 Amma iya mbi bi woh, biyi wa bi kpa si mbi ye.
But, woe to you that are rich; for ye have received your consolation.
25 Iya mbi bi hi wa bi wrji zizan, iyon ni ye tie yi ni ko shishi.
Woe to you that are full; for ye will hunger. Woe to you that laugh now, for ye will weep and mourn.
26 Iya mbi biyi wa ba tre ndindi ni tu mbi'a, a he toki ba bachi mba batie ni Anabawa bi ce.
Woe to you, when men shall speak your praise; for so did their fathers to the false prophets.
27 Amma mi hla yiwu wa bi ki sren ton, son bi kamba yi din tie zizi ni bi kran yi.
And to you who hear, I say: Love your enemies; and do favors to them that hate you;
28 Tie lulu ni bi mre yi ndi bre Irji ni bi ka to tie yiwu.
and bless them that curse you; and pray for them that drag you with violence.
29 Niu wa nita wru ni ngbala nh'ma kori, uka nno rima, u wanda ban klon me ri, uka nno ri tiya.
To him that smiteth thee on thy cheek, offer the other: and from him that taketh away thy cloak, keep not back thy tunic.
30 Nno indji wa a mye u. Idio nita ban kpie me, na mye ndu ka nno wu ngana.
To every one that asketh of thee, give thou: and from him that taketh thy property, demand it not.
31 To wa u son don ndji tie wu tie ki bawu me.
And as ye would that men should do to you, so do ye also to them.
32 U ta son ndji wa ba son wu, wa hi ngyeri ndindi niwu? I bi latre ba tie toki me.
For, if ye love them that love you, what goodness is it in you? For even sinners love those that love them.
33 U ta tie ndindi ni biwa ba tie ndindi wu'a, a ngye u bi ma niwu. E indji bi latre ba tie toki me.
And if ye do good to them that do good to you, what goodness is it in you? For even sinners do the same.
34 U tie nno hla nklen ni ndji wa u to ani ye han wu, wahi kpiew ngye ndindi ni wu? U bi latre'a ba nno hla ni bi latre nda kpa ikpie'a ba na nno.
And if ye lend to one from whom ye expect recompense, what goodness is it in you? For sinners also lend to sinners, to receive adequate recompense.
35 Amma son biwa bana nyme ni wuna ndi tie zizi bawu. Nno hla, hamma ni yo suron ula kpa kpie tuma, u di me ni babran, u bi he mri Madaukaki, wandi wawu me ani toh tie ni bi wa ba ka ngyri nda meme ndji.
But love ye your enemies, and do them good; and lend ye, and disappoint the hopes of no one: and great will be your reward, and ye will be children of the Highest; for he is kind to the evil, and to the unthankful.
36 He ni dri ndindi na tie mbi.
Be ye therefore merciful, as also your Father is merciful.
37 Na han tre tu rina, u bana han tre nitu me nan. Na kpa ri tie meme na, u bana kpau tie meme na. Wruhle ni bari, u ba wruhle niwu.
Judge not, and ye will not be judged: condemn not, and ye will not be condemned: release, and ye will be released.
38 Nno, u ba nno yi. Nene rhigra ma, uwa ba den nda grju mudu'a, ka shukuhle ni gban mbi. Ani mudu wawu tsra niwu, a ni kii ba tsra ni wu.”
Give ye, and it will be given to you; in good measure, pressed down, and running over, will they cast into your lap. For, with what measure ye measure, it will be measured to you.
39 A hla misali ri ni bawu, “Indji u nfyen ni tsro ndji u nfyen ri nkon? To a tie naki, ba bi ku ni juju, ka bana kuna?
And he spake a similitude to them: Can a blind man lead a blind? Will not both fall into the ditch?
40 Ivren wa ani kpa tsro na zan asi tsro wu'a na, amma dun ndji wa ba tsro wu kle'a ani he na indji waa tsro'a.
No disciple is better than his teacher; for whoever is perfect, will be like his teacher.
41 Bi tie he mu ndi ni ya vi bi giga wa ahe ni shishi vayi me, ndina toh kikle nkpon wandi ahe ni shishi me'a na?
And why observest thou the straw that is in thy brother's eye, but regardest not the beam that is in thy own eye?
42 U tie he ndi hla vayi me, 'Vayi, dume cu vi bi giga u shishi me,' i wu tume una to gbongbon u shishi me na? Iwu ndji u karji. Guci cu gbogbon u shishi me rju rhi ndi mla ya u wa ahi ni shishi vayi me.
Or how canst thou say to thy brothers, My brother, allow me to pluck the straw from thy eye; when, lo, the beam that is in thy own eye, thou regardest not. Hypocrite! first cast the beam out thy eye, and then thy vision will be clear to pluck the straw from thy brother's eye.
43 E bana tie nkunkro ndindi mawa iklo ma ba gigla ma na, u gigla nkunkron na nno klo ndindi ma na.
There is no good tree, that beareth bad fruits; nor a bad tree, that beareth good fruits.
44 E ba to nkunkron ni klo ma. E indji bana kyen klo ncu ni nci ncoh na, ume bana kyen klo grapes rji ni miji braya na.
For every tree is known by its fruits. Do men gather figs from thorn-bushes? So, neither do they pluck grapes from brambles.
45 Indji ndindi rji ni suron ma ndindi ani tie kpi bi ndindima, u meme ndji rji ni meme suron ma ni tie meme kpi. Don rji ni gbugbu kpie bi mi suron inyu ma ni hla.
A good man, from the good treasure that is in his heart, bringeth out good things: and a bad man, from the bad treasure that is in his heart, bringeth out bad things. For, from the abundance of the heart, the lips speak.
46 Nitu ngye bi yome, 'Bachi, Bachi,' u bina tie kpie'a wame tre na?
And why call ye me, My Lord, my Lord; while ye do not that which I command you?
47 Indji wa aye nime nda wo lan tre mu nda tie kpe wa mi tre'a, Mi hla ni yiwu ka ahi nha.
Every one that cometh to me, and heareth my words, and doeth them, I will show to whom he is like:
48 Ahe na ndi wasi meh koh nda shi juju u nci tra ri meme nda meh nci tra ni tu inha. Toh ima aye babran nda ri ni nci tra, u ana tie'u kpe na, nitu ba meh wu bi.
He is like a man that built a house; and he dug and went deep, and laid the foundations on a rock: and when a flood occurred, the flood rushed upon that house, and could not move it, for its foundation rested on a rock.
49 Amma indji wa ani wo tre mu nda na tie bana, ahe na ndji wa a meh tra ni tu meme hamma ni zi nci tra. Ima aye babran nda ri ni nci tra'a, u koh'a tie gbla zi hle kpukpru wu.
But he that heareth and doeth not, is like a man that built his house upon the earth, without a foundation; and when the torrent rushed upon it, it fell immediately, and the ruin of that house was great.
