Luke 8
1 Yesu ni mri koh ma wlon don ha, ba zren kagon mi gbu ba, ni'g'rji, ni'g'rji kan kan, ba bla tr Irji na nio hla tre ndindi ma nitu koh Irji.
And it came to pass afterward, that he went through every city and village, preaching, and making known the good news of the kingdom of God; and the twelve were with him;
2 Imba gbugbu'u wa Yesu a ju brji rju ni bawu ni kankan rju ni ba wu, ba bi zren baba Yesu, Maryamu wa ba yo Magdali, w a ju brji tangban rju niwu'a.
and also certain women that had been cured of evil spirits and diseases; Mary, called Magdalene, out of whom had gone seven demons,
3 Ni Yuwana, Iwa Kuza, indji u ndu Hiridus, ni Suzana; ni mba gbugbuwu, ni kpi wu yo'u ba wa ba no ba.
and Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod’s steward, and Susanna, and many others, who ministered to him from their means.
4 Vi ri ba yo jubu ndji kabi ni k'lanri, ni tu wa indji gbugbu ba rji ni mi gbu gbugbuwu si ye toh Yesu, A tre ni bawu ni misali.
And when a great multitude had assembled, and they were coming to him from every city, he spoke by a parable:
5 Indji ri a hi hi bi, bari ba kuhle ni nkon indji ba chan u chinchen ba tan kle.
The sower went forth to sow his seed; and as he sowed, some fell by the wayside, and it was trodden down, and the birds of the air ate it up.
6 Bari ba kuhle ni tita bubuwa meme na he ni bran na u ba rju nda lu ni gbron, ba k'ma kyu, nitu bi'a na fie meme na.
And some fell upon the rock; and when it had sprung up, it withered, because it had no moisture.
7 Bari ba ku'hle nimi nchon, i nchon ba ba rju gbron nda zan gbengble ibi'a nda wu bi'a.
And some fell in the midst of thorns; and the thorns grew up with it and choked it.
8 Ibi ba ri ba kuhle ni meme ndindima nda rju gbron bi, na shobi babran, u bari ba sho gbala deri. Wa Yesu tre kle naki nda yo ba, indji wa a he ni ton u wo dun wo.
And other seed fell into good ground, and sprung up, and produced fruit a hundred-fold. When he had said these things, he cried: He that has ears to hear, let him hear.
9 Imri koh Yesu ba myen i ndu hla tu tre'a.
And the disciples asked him, saying: What does this parable mean?
10 A hlabawu, biyi ba no yi duyi ton kpi ba rir, u koh Irji, ni brou di mi ngla ba vu ni misali, ko bani toh bana toh kpi ngana, ba wo tre u nda na toh ba tre nge na.
He replied: To you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that when they see, they may not see, and when they hear, they may not understand.
11 To naki kpie wa Irji a tre yi: ibi'a a tre Irji.
But the meaning of the parable is this: The seed is the word of God;
12 Ibi wa ba kuhle ni tu nkon a iri bi wa ba kpa tre Irji u brji ba suron mba hdu ba kahle ga da na yo suron na.
those by the wayside are they that hear; then comes the devil and takes the word from their heart, lest they should believe and be saved.
13 Naki, bi wa ba chuku ni tita ba ndji wa ba wo tre Irji nda kpa'u ni ngyiri, u ba na he ni njan na, ba kpa tre'a ni nton tsaa me u ni nton wa ibrji tsra ba, ba kuhle.
Those on the rock are they that, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, who, for awhile, believe, and in time of temptation apostatize.
14 Ibi wa ba joku ni mi inchon, baba yi ba ndji bi wa ba wo tre Irji, da ba bu koh gbungblu zan gbengble mba, naki, bana no mri bi bi mana.
That which fell among thorns are those who hear, and so conduct themselves, that they are choked by the cares and riches and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to perfection.
15 Ibi wa ba joku ni meme ndindima, a hi ndji bi wa ba wo tre, nda kpa ni suron ri, nda ji gbagba da vu suron.
But that on the good ground are those who, in a good and honest heart, hear the word, and keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.
16 Ba ndi ani yo lu nda ka'u ni gbugban, ko ba ka zi ni zah bubu kru, sei baka ka zi ni bubu ma don ndi bata ri baka toh kpan ma.
No one when he has lighted a lamp, covers it with a vessel, or puts it under a divan, but sets it on a lamp-stand, that they who come in may see the light.
17 Ba kpe wa a hei riri ma, wa bana shele ana ko kpe u riri wanda na rju ni ra na.
For there is nothing concealed, that shall not be made manifest, nor hid, that shall not be known and brought into view.
18 Yo tu mbi wa bisi woh, du ndji wa ahe ni kpa ba sru tia ni'u u wandi ahe fime, wa ndi asi ri mre, ba vu kpa.
Take heed, therefore, how you hear; for whoever has, to him shall be given; and whoever has not, even that which he seems to have shall be taken from him.
19 U yi Yesu, baba mri vayi ma, ba ye niwu, bana iya ye whewhre ni wu na, ndji ba he gbugbu.
And his mother and his brothers came to him, but were not able to get near him on account of the multitude.
20 Indji ri hla niwu ngye Iyi Me ni mri vayi Me ba he ni ra, ba son toh'u.
And it was told him by some that said: Thy mother and thy brothers stand without, desiring to see thee.
21 U Yesu ka kasa da tre iyimu baba mri vayi mu, ahi baba iba woh tre Irji nda kpa'u tie.
But he answered and said to them: My mother and my brothers are they that hear the word of God and do it.
22 Ni vi ri Yesu ari ni jirgi ma, baba mri kohma, wa tre ndi wa wu ni son duba hi ni granmu, ba wlunde zren ni hi ni granmu'a.
And it came to pass, on a certain day, that he entered a ship with his disciples; and he said to them: Let us go over to the other side of the lake. And they set sail.
23 Da ba si hi, sei Yesu ka kruna, u guigui ri u gbengblen ma a lunde ni ma, naki u ma lu ni shu ni mi jirgi'a ba he ni mi ya.
And while they were sailing, he fell asleep. And a storm of wind came down upon the lake, and they began to be filled, and were in danger.
24 U mri koh Yesu ba ka sh'me wu ni nna, nda tre, “Ninkon mbu, Ninkon mbu! ki si tewhre qu,” wa lunde nda yra nha ni gyungyu'a ni mma wa si shi'a, ka kukri tsit.
And they came to him, and awoke him, saying: Master, master, we perish. But he arose and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water, and they ceased, and there was a calm.
25 Ni ki wa tre ni bawu, i yo suron mbi'a ahe ni ntsen? Sissri tie mri koh ma, ba wri kpa, ikpe wa ba toh ni ki, u ba tre ni kpamba, “Ahi nha yi wayi, wa ani tre hra gyungyu mba mma u nne baka wo'wu?”
And he said to them: Where is your faith? And being afraid, they wondered, and said one to another: Who, then, is this, that he commands even the wind and the water, and they obey him?
26 Ba ye ni ngbala Gerasines, wa hi whewhre ni gran nne rji ni Galili.
And they sailed to the country of the Gadarenes, which is opposite to Galilee.
27 Da Yesu a grji ye meme, u a toh ndji ri ni ngbala koki wa a he ni brji ni kpama. Indji'a ban ton nda na sru nklon na, ana son ni koh na, naka ni son bubu be.
And when he came out upon the land, there met him a certain man from the city, who had been possessed with demons for a long time, and who wore no clothes, and dwelt in no house, but in the tombs.
28 Da a toh Yesu, wa kpagro nda kurjoku ni shishi Yesu nda tre ni gbangba ndi, Wu ye tie ngye ni me, Yesu, Ivren Irji ni shulu? Mi bre'wu, na ne yah na.
When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and said with a loud voice: What have I to do with thee, Jesus, Son of God Most High? I beseech thee, torment me not.
29 Yesu a tredun brji duba rju don wu, ni nton gbugbuwu ibrji ba ba huu, ko ba tya lo ni sraka ani su sraka, meme ibrji ba zu hi ni miji.
For he had O; commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For it had often seized upon him, and he had been bound with chains and fetters, and kept in confinement; and he broke the bonds, and was driven by the demon into the deserts.
30 U Yesu ka mye ndji'a, ba yo'u ndi nha? Wa ka tre ndi inde mu a “gbugbu'u,” Yesu tre ndi iki a brji ba gbugbu wa ba ri ni ndji'a.
And Jesus asked him, saying: What is your name? He answered, Legion; for many demons had entered into him.
And they be sought him, that he would not command them to go away into the abyss. (Abyssos g12)
32 Gran dushu u koh bana he gbugbu'u whewhre niki, ibrji ba bre Yesu du duba hi ri ni mi dushu ba, Yesu ka kpa nyime ni bawu.
And there was in that place a herd of many swine feeding on the mountain. And they besought him to permit them to go into them. And he permitted them.
33 Ibrji ba ba don ndji'a nda ri nimi dushu ba, u grake dushu ba ba ka tsutsu ka ri ni nne, u mma nne'a ka vu ba hi.
And the demons came out of the man, and went into the swine; and the herd rushed down a steep place into the lake, and were drowned.
34 Inton wa ndji bi ho dushu ba toh kpe wa a tie'a, baka tsutsu nda ka hla kpe wa a tie'a nimi gbu ni kosan gbu'a.
And when those who fed them saw what was done, they fled, and told it in the city and in the country.
35 Da ndji bawo kpe a tie'a, nda ni ye toh, ba ye gbugbuwu, Yesu he ni ndji'a ndi brji ba rju ni kpama, ba toh a sru nklon nda kri, nda he ni mre ma, u sissri ka tie ba.
And they came out to see what had been done; and they came to Jesus, and saw the man out of whom the demons had gone, clothed, and in his right mind, sitting at the feet of Jesus; and they were afraid.
36 Indji ba toh kpe 'a ada tie'a, ba hla yada Yesu chu brji'a rju ni ndji'a.
And those who had seen it, told them by what means the man who had been possessed with the demons, was saved.
37 Du ndji wa ba he ni ngbala Gerasines ni bi wa ba he ni kosangbu'a ba bre Yesu du rju ni gbu mba, don ba klu sissri niki Yesu ni mri koh ma ba ri ni mi jrigi nda hi kpamba.
And the whole multitude of the neighboring country of the Gadarenes besought him to depart from them; for they were seized with great fear. And he entered the ship and returned.
38 Ndi waibrjibarju ni kpama, a bre Yesu du du wawu hu, Yesu yo inkoh nda tre,
And the man out of whom the demons had gone, besought him that he might be with him. But Jesus sent him away, saying:
39 K'ma hi ni koh mbi, ndi hla ni ndji ikpe wa Irji tie ni wu. Ni ki ndji'a a hi nda ni hla ndji ikpe Yesu tie ni wu.
Return to your house, and tell what things God has done for you. And he went away, proclaiming through the whole city what Jesus had done for him.
40 Da Yesu k'ma ye ndji basi gben'wu.
And it came to pass, when Jesus returned, that the multitude received him gladly; for they were all waiting for him.
41 Indji wa inde ma Yayirus, iri ni mi mba bi tre Irji, aye nda kukug ngbarju ni Yesu ni meme, da bre du ye ni koh ma.
And, behold, there came a man, whose name was Jairus; and he was a ruler of the synagogue; and he fell down at the feet of Jesus, and besought him to come into his house;
42 Vivren ma a hama ni si kpa, u sei tso, asi hi bubu ku, a hi wa wu yi vivren wa ni nklen ma, da asi hi indji gbugbu'u basi hu.
for he had a daughter, his only child, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. And as he went, the multitude pressed upon him.
43 Wa ri ni gbu'a ata ju jin sie tso, a wu kle ma wa wu ni bi no imum di ba no sie, ba ndji'a iya no sie na.
And a woman that had been afflicted with an issue of blood for twelve years, who had spent her whole living upon physicians, and could be cured by no one,
44 Wa zu ni kogon Yesu nda taba nklon ma, ni ki iyin a kukrie.
came behind, and touched the fringe of his mantle; and her issue of blood immediately ceased.
45 Yesu tre ahin nha anha ni kpa mu? Bari wa ba he whewhre ni wu ba tre ndi bana taba wuna, Bitrus tre ndi, indji gbugbuwu ba si ma'wu.
And Jesus said: Who touched me? When they all denied, Peter and those with him said: Master, the multitudes press upon thee, and throng thee, and dost thou say, Who touched me?
46 Ni kima Yesu ka tre mi toh indrjo a taba nime, gbengblen a rju ni kpamu.
But Jesus said: Some one touched me; for I perceive that power has gone forth from me.
47 Da iwa a toh wawu na ya ri ngana, nda ye nda ni klu sissri nda kukyu ngbarju ni shishi Yesu nda hla ni kpa di ba di kpe waa sa du wawu taba ni Yesu, u iyi'a ka kukri.
And the woman, seeing that she had not escaped notice, came trembling, and fell down before him, and told him, before all the people, for what cause she had touched him, and that she was immediately restored to health.
48 Sei wa hla ni wu vre yo'u suron me a du lilo'a kle, hi kpa me ni si suron.
And he said to her: Take courage, daughter; your faith has saved you; go in peace.
49 A mi tre se ndji ri ka rji ni koh tra Irji aye nda tre, vivren wa me'a a kyu ye, na yo'u mala ya na.
While he was yet speaking, there came some one from the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and said to him: Your daughter is dead; trouble not the Teacher.
50 Da Yesu woh naki a sa ni Jariyus, nda tre na klu sissri na, yo suron, ani lunde.
But when Jesus heard it, he answered him, saying: Fear not, only believe, and she shall be saved.
51 Wa ye ni koh, ana du ndrjo huri ni mi koh'a na, se Bitrus, Yohana u Yakubu ni tie vrenwa'a mba iyi ma.
And when he came to the house, he permitted no one to go in but Peter and James and John, and the father and the mother of the child.
52 Indji gbugbuu niki ba si yi gbagba me, don vivrenwa'a a kyu. Yesu ka tre du ba ka chuwo ni yi, ana qu na, asi krunna migyen.
And all were weeping and lamenting her. But he said: Weep not; she is not dead, but sleeps.
53 Ndji ba ba zah u kpa tsri, don ba toh ndi vrenwa'a a qu.
And they derided him, knowing that she was dead.
54 A vu ni woh nda si yo nde vivren wa da tre du lunde.
But he put them all out, and took her by the hand, and called, and said: Child, arise.
55 Ni ki ivren ma ka k'ma ye ni mi kpama wa a lunde, wa a tre du ba no kpe dun rhi.
And her spirit returned, and she arose immediately. And he commanded that food should be given her.
56 Ba tie ma mba yi ma, ba bu iyie'u yo nitu da ya, Yesu a hla ni ba wu du ba na hla ni ndrjo kpe wa a tie na.
And her parents were amazed. But he charged them to tell no one what had been done.
