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 after these things Jesus travelled about the cities and the villages, and proclaimed and announced the kingdom of God. And with him were his twelve disciples,
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 those women who were healed of infirmities and of unclean spirits, Mary called Magdalena, out of whom went 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 Chusa, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, who ministered to them of their property.
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 was assembled, and people came to him from all the cities, he said, in similitudes:
5 Indji ri a hi hi bi, bari ba kuhle ni nkon indji ba chan u chinchen ba tan kle.
A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the side of the path, and was trodden upon, and a bird devoured it.
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 other fell upon a rock, and sprung up forthwith; but, as it lacked moisture, it dried up.
7 Bari ba ku'hle nimi nchon, i nchon ba ba rju gbron nda zan gbengble ibi'a nda wu bi'a.
And other fell among thorns, and the thorns sprung 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 fell on good and fair ground, and sprung up, and bore fruits, a hundred for one. Having said these things, he cried: He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
9 Imri koh Yesu ba myen i ndu hla tu tre'a.
And his disciples asked him: what meaneth this similitude?
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.
And he said to them: To you it is given, to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God; but to others, it is spoken in allegories; that, while seeing, they may not see, and while hearing, may not understand.
11 To naki kpie wa Irji a tre yi: ibi'a a tre Irji.
But this is the similitude: 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.
And those by the side of the path, are they that hear the word, and the enemy cometh and taketh the word out of their heart, that they may not believe and live.
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.
And those upon the rock, are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy: but they have no root in them, and their faith is temporary, and in time of temptation they are stumbled.
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.
And that which fell among thorns, are those who hear the word, but are choked by cares, and by riches, and by worldly desires, and bear no fruits.
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.
And that on good ground, are those who, with a humble and good heart, hear the word, and retain it, and with patience bring forth fruits.
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 lighteth a lamp, and covereth it with a vessel, or placeth it under a bed, but setteth it upon a light-stand, that all who come in, may see the light of it.
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 covered, that shall not be uncovered; nor concealed, that shall not be known and become manifest.
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 how ye hear: for to him that hath, shall be given; and from him that hath not, shall be taken even what he thinketh he hath.
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, and they could not speak with him, because of the multitude.
20 Indji ri hla niwu ngye Iyi Me ni mri vayi Me ba he ni ra, ba son toh'u.
And they say to him: Thy mother and thy brothers stand without, and wish 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.
And he answered and said: My mother and my brothers, are they who 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 on a certain day Jesus embarked and sat in a ship, he and his disciples. And he said to them; Let us pass over to the other side of the sea.
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 rowing, Jesus fell asleep. And there was a tempest of wind on the sea; and the ship was near to sinking.
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 and awaked him, and said to him: Our Rabbi, our Rabbi, we are perishing! And he arose, and rebuked the winds and the agitations 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 they being in awe, wondered, and said one to another: Who is this, that commandeth even the winds, and the waves, and the sea; and they obey him?
26 Ba ye ni ngbala Gerasines, wa hi whewhre ni gran nne rji ni Galili.
And they rowed on, and came to the country of the Gadarenes, which lieth over against 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 went out upon the land, there, met him a man of the city, in whom had been a demon for a long time; and he wore no clothing, and did not reside in a house, but among 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.
And when he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and said, with a loud voice: What have we to do with thee? Jesus, thou Son of the exalted God. I entreat of 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 Jesus had commanded the unclean spirit, to come out of the man: for, of a long time he had been held captive by him; and he had been bound with chains, and held in fetters; but he had burst the bonds, and had been driven by the demon into the desert.
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 demanded of him: What is thy name? And he said to him: Legion: because many demons had entered into him.
And they besought him, not to command them to depart 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 a herd of many swine grazing on the mountain. And they besought him, that he would permit them to enter the swine. 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 went out of the man, and entered the swine; and the whole herd ran to a precipice, and plunged into the sea, and were strangled.
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 the herdmen saw what had occurred, they fled, and told it in the cities and the villages.
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 the men went out to see what was done. And they came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the demons had gone, now clothed, and modest, and sitting at the feet of Jesus; and they were awed.
36 Indji ba toh kpe 'a ada tie'a, ba hla yada Yesu chu brji'a rju ni ndji'a.
And they that saw it, related to them in what manner the demoniac was cured.
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 throng of the Gadarenes requested him, that he would depart from them: for great fear had seized them. And Jesus embarked in a ship, and retired from among them.
38 Ndi waibrjibarju ni kpama, a bre Yesu du du wawu hu, Yesu yo inkoh nda tre,
And the man, from whom the demons had gone out, requested that he might remain with him. But Jesus dismissed him, and said to him:
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 thy home, and relate what God hath done for thee. And he went away, and proclaimed through all the city what Jesus had done for him.
40 Da Yesu k'ma ye ndji basi gben'wu.
And when Jesus returned, a great multitude received him; for all were looking 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 a man, whose name was Jairus, a chief of the synagogue, fell down at the feet of Jesus, and besought him to enter 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 an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was near dying. And as Jesus went with him, a great 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 certain woman, whose blood had flowed twelve years, and who had expended all her property among physicians, and could not be cured by any one,
44 Wa zu ni kogon Yesu nda taba nklon ma, ni ki iyin a kukrie.
came up behind him, and touched the border of his garment; and immediately the flow of her blood stopped.
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? And when all denied, Simon Cephas and those with him said to him: Our Rabbi, crowds press upon thee and sayest thou, Who touched me?
46 Ni kima Yesu ka tre mi toh indrjo a taba nime, gbengblen a rju ni kpamu.
And he said: Some one touched me; for I perceive, that energy hath gone out 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, when she saw that she had not escaped his notice, came trembling, and fell down and worshipped him. And in the presence of all the people, she declared for what cause she had touched him, and that she was instantly healed.
48 Sei wa hla ni wu vre yo'u suron me a du lilo'a kle, hi kpa me ni si suron.
And Jesus said to her: Take courage, my daughter: Thy faith hath given thee life: 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.
And while he was speaking, one came from the house of the chief of the synagogue, and said to him: Thy 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.
And Jesus heard it, and said to the father of the maid: Fear not; believe only, and she will live.
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 Jesus came to the house; and he suffered none to go in with him, except Simon, and James, and John, and the father and mother of the maid.
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 wailing over her. And Jesus said: Weep not; for she is not dead, but sleepeth
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.
And he put every one out, and took her by the hand, and called, and said: Maid, 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 instantly arose. And he directed them to give her food.
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 astonished: and he charged them to tell no one what had occurred.
