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 afterwards that He went through every city and village, preaching and declaring the good tidings 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 some women that had been cured of evil spirits and other infirmities, as Mary Magdalene, out of whom were cast 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 assisted Him with their substance.
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 gathered together, of those that came to Him out of every city, He spake a parable saying,
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 was sowing, some fell by the way-side, and was trodden down, and the birds of the air 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 some fell upon stony ground, and as soon as it sprung 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.
And some fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang 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 some fell on good ground, and sprang up and yielded fruit an hundred-fold. And as He said these things He cried out, "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 might be the meaning of this parable.
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 you it is granted to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but I speak to others in parables, that in seeing they may not see, and hearing they may 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.
and those by the way-side, are such as hear indeed; but then the devil cometh and taketh away the word from their hearts, least 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.
And those on stony-ground are such as when they hear, receive the word with joy; but have no root, and so believe only for a while, and in the time of trial 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.
And that which fell among thorns, are those who when they have heard the word go away and are choked with 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 having heard the word, retain it in a good and honest heart, 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 man when he hath lighted a candle covereth it with a vessel, or putteth it under a couch; but setteth it on a candlestick, 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 secret, that shall not be made manifest: nor any thing concealed, which shall 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.
Take heed therefore how ye hear: for whosoever improveth what he hath, to him shall more be given; and whosoever hath not, even what he seemeth 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.
Now his mother and his brethren came to Him, and could not come at Him for the croud:
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, Thy mother and thy brethren 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.
And He answered and said unto them, My mother and my brethren are these 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 one of the days that He went into a ship, Himself and his disciples, and He said to them, Let us go over to the other side of the lake.
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 they launched forth: but as they were failing, He fell asleep: and a storm of wind came down upon the lake, and they were filled with water, and were in great 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 are perishing. Then 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 unto them, Where is your faith? But they were struck with awe and amazement, and said one to another, who is this? for He commandeth even the winds and the sea, 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 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 was landed, there met Him a man out of the city, who had been possessed by demons a long while, and wore no clothes, and abode in no dwelling but 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.
But when he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down to Him, and said with a loud voice, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I beseech thee, 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 He commanded the impure spirit to come out of the man; which had oftentimes seized him so violently, that tho' he was bound with chains and fetters, yet he broke the bands asunder, and was driven by the demon into those lonely 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.
And Jesus asked him, saying, What is thy name? and he said, Legion: because many demons were entred into him.
And they besought Him that He would not command them to go 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.
but as there was there an herd of many swine feeding on the mountain, they intreated Him that He would suffer them to enter 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.
So the demons went out of the man and entred into the swine: and the herd ran violently down the hill 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 that looked after them saw what was done they fled; and went and told it in city and 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 the people went out to see what was done, and came to Jesus; and found the man, from whom the demons were gone out, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind:
36 Indji ba toh kpe 'a ada tie'a, ba hla yada Yesu chu brji'a rju ni ndji'a.
and they were afraid, for those that saw it told them how the demoniac was healed.
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 all the people of the country round about the Gadarenes desired Him to depart from them; for they were seized with great fear: and He went into the ship and returned.
38 Ndi waibrjibarju ni kpama, a bre Yesu du du wawu hu, Yesu yo inkoh nda tre,
Now the man from whom the demons were gone out, prayed Him to let him be with Him: but Jesus sent him away,
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.
saying, Return home, and relate what God hath done for thee. So he went away publishing through the whole city what great things Jesus had done to him.
40 Da Yesu k'ma ye ndji basi gben'wu.
And when Jesus returned, a great multitude of people received Him; 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, a ruler of the synagogue, and he fell at the feet of Jesus, and intreated 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 an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying. (But as He was going, the people crouded 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 who had been in a flux twelve years, and had spent her whole livelyhood upon physicians,
44 Wa zu ni kogon Yesu nda taba nklon ma, ni ki iyin a kukrie.
but could not be healed by any, came close behind Him and touched the hem of his garment, and immediately her flux was stopt.
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 all denied it, Peter, and those that were with him, said, Sir, the multitudes throng and press thee, and dost thou ask, Who was it that touched me?
46 Ni kima Yesu ka tre mi toh indrjo a taba nime, gbengblen a rju ni kpamu.
And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive a peculiar virtue is gone out of 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 when the woman saw that she was not concealed, she came trembling, and fell down to Him, and declared before all the people, for what reason she had touched Him, and how she was healed immediately.
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 unto her, Daughter, be comforted, thy faith has healed thee, 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 cometh one from the ruler of the synagogue's, and said to Him, Thy daughter is dead, trouble not the Master.
50 Da Yesu woh naki a sa ni Jariyus, nda tre na klu sissri na, yo suron, ani lunde.
But Jesus hearing it, answered saying, Fear not, only believe, and she shall be recovered.
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 suffered none to go in but Peter, and James, and John, and the father and 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 they were all weeping and bewailing her: but He said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth.
53 Ndji ba ba zah u kpa tsri, don ba toh ndi vrenwa'a a qu.
And they laughed at Him, knowing that she was dead.
54 A vu ni woh nda si yo nde vivren wa da tre du lunde.
But He turned them all out, and taking hold of her hand, called to her, saying, 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 immediately she stood up: and He ordered something to be given her 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.
And her parents were exceedingly astonished: but He charged them to tell no one what was done.
