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.
Soon afterward Jesus was going through every city and village, preaching and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God. 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.
as well as some women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary (called Magdalene) from whom seven demons had gone out,
3 Ni Yuwana, Iwa Kuza, indji u ndu Hiridus, ni Suzana; ni mba gbugbuwu, ni kpi wu yo'u ba wa ba no ba.
Joanna the wife of Chuza (Herod's steward), Susanna, and many others. These women provided for Jesus and his disciples out of their own resources.
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.
As a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from town after town, he said in a parable:
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. As he sowed, some seed fell along the path and was trampled underfoot, and the birds of the sky 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.
Other seed fell on rock, and as it grew up, it withered away 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.
Other seed fell among the 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.
But other seed fell into good soil, and when it grew, it produced a hundred times more than what was sown.” As he said this, he called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
9 Imri koh Yesu ba myen i ndu hla tu tre'a.
Then his disciples asked him, “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 said, “To you it has been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God, but to the rest I speak in parables, so that ‘they may see but not perceive, and hear but not understand.’
11 To naki kpie wa Irji a tre yi: ibi'a a tre Irji.
“Now this is the meaning of the parable: 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.
The ones along the path are those who hear; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their heart, so that they may not 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.
The ones on the rock are those who, when they hear the word, receive it with joy. Yet they have no root; they believe for a while, but in a time of testing they fall away.
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.
The seed that fell among the thorns are those who have heard, but as they go on their way they are choked by the cares, riches, and pleasures of this life, and their fruit does not mature.
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 the seed in the good soil are those who hear the word, hold fast to it with an honest and good heart, and bear fruit with patient endurance.
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 lights a lamp and covers it with a container or puts it under a bed. Instead, it is put on a lampstand, so that those who come in can see its light.
17 Ba kpe wa a hei riri ma, wa bana shele ana ko kpe u riri wanda na rju ni ra na.
For nothing is hidden that will not be made manifest, nor is anything hidden away that will not be made known and come to light.
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.
Therefore consider how you hear, for whoever has will be given more, but whoever does not have, even what he thinks he has will be taken away from him.”
19 U yi Yesu, baba mri vayi ma, ba ye niwu, bana iya ye whewhre ni wu na, ndji ba he gbugbu.
Then Jesus' mother and brothers came to him, but they were not able to reach him because of the crowd.
20 Indji ri hla niwu ngye Iyi Me ni mri vayi Me ba he ni ra, ba son toh'u.
So some people told him, “Yoʋr mother and yoʋr brothers are standing outside, wanting to see yoʋ.”
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 them, “My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and obey 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.
One day Jesus got into a boat with his disciples and said to them, “Let us cross over to the other side of the lake.” So they set out,
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 as they were sailing along, he fell asleep. Then a windstorm came down on the lake, and they were in danger as the boat was being swamped by the waves.
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.
So they came to Jesus and woke him up, saying, “Master, Master, we are perishing!” Then he rose and rebuked the wind and the raging water. They ceased, and all was 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?”
Then he said to his disciples, “Where is your faith?” But they were afraid and amazed, saying to one another, “Who then is this, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?”
26 Ba ye ni ngbala Gerasines, wa hi whewhre ni gran nne rji ni Galili.
Then they sailed to the region of the Gadarenes, which is across the lake from 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.
When Jesus stepped ashore, he was met by a man from the city who had been possessed by demons for a long time. This man did not wear clothes or live 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.
When he saw Jesus, he cried out, fell down before him, and said with a loud voice, “What do yoʋ have to do with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg yoʋ, do not torment me.”
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. Many times it had seized him, and he would be bound with chains and shackles and kept under guard, but he would break the chains and be driven by the demon into desolate places.
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.
Jesus then asked him, “What is yoʋr name?” He said, “Legion,” for many demons had entered him.
And he begged Jesus not to 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.
Now there was a herd of many pigs feeding there on the mountain. The demons begged Jesus to permit them to enter the pigs. So he gave them permission.
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.
Then the demons came out of the man and went into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank 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.
When those who had been feeding the pigs saw what happened, they ran off and reported it in the city and in the countryside.
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.
So the people came out to see what had happened. When they came to Jesus, they found the man from whom the demons had gone out sitting at Jesus' feet, clothed and in his right mind, and they were afraid.
36 Indji ba toh kpe 'a ada tie'a, ba hla yada Yesu chu brji'a rju ni ndji'a.
Those who had seen it told them how the demon-possessed man had been delivered.
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.
Then the entire multitude from the surrounding region of the Gadarenes asked Jesus to depart from them, for they were seized with great fear. So he got into the boat and left.
38 Ndi waibrjibarju ni kpama, a bre Yesu du du wawu hu, Yesu yo inkoh nda tre,
Now the man from whom the demons had gone out begged to go 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 yoʋr house, and declare all that God has done for yoʋ.” So the man went away, proclaiming throughout the entire city all that Jesus had done for him.
40 Da Yesu k'ma ye ndji basi gben'wu.
Now when Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed him, for they had all been 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 named Jairus, who was a ruler of the synagogue. He fell down at Jesus' feet and begged him to come to 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.
because he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying. As Jesus went on his way, the crowds were pressing in on 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.
Now there was a woman who had suffered from a flow of blood for twelve years, and even though she had spent her entire livelihood on physicians, she could not be healed by anyone.
44 Wa zu ni kogon Yesu nda taba nklon ma, ni ki iyin a kukrie.
She came up behind Jesus and touched the fringe of his garment, and the flow of her blood stopped at once.
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.
Then Jesus said, “Who touched me?” When everyone denied it, Peter and those who were with him said, “Master, the crowds are surrounding yoʋ and pressing against yoʋ, and yet yoʋ say, ‘Who touched me?’”
46 Ni kima Yesu ka tre mi toh indrjo a taba nime, gbengblen a rju ni kpamu.
But Jesus said, “Someone touched me, for I know that power has 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.
When the woman saw that she could not escape notice, she came trembling and fell down before him, and in the presence of all the people she told him the reason why she had touched him, and how she had been healed at once.
48 Sei wa hla ni wu vre yo'u suron me a du lilo'a kle, hi kpa me ni si suron.
Then Jesus said to her, “Take courage, daughter; yoʋr faith has healed yoʋ. 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 still speaking, someone came from the ruler of the synagogue's house and said to him, “Yoʋr daughter has died; do not trouble 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 this, he said to him in response, “Do not be afraid; just believe, and she will be healed.”
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.
When he came to the house, Jesus allowed no one to go in, except Peter, John, James, and the child's father and mother.
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.
Meanwhile, all the people were weeping and mourning for her, but Jesus said, “Do not weep; she is not dead but sleeping.”
53 Ndji ba ba zah u kpa tsri, don ba toh ndi vrenwa'a a qu.
And they began laughing at him, knowing that she was dead.
54 A vu ni woh nda si yo nde vivren wa da tre du lunde.
But Jesus put them all outside, took hold of the girl's hand, and called out, “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.
Her spirit returned, and she got up at once. Then he told them to give her something to eat.
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.
Her parents were amazed, but he ordered them not to tell anyone what had happened.
