Matiyu 12
1 Ni nton kima Yesu a zren zu ni'rju kpu ni vi u sabat. Iyon tie mrli koh ma u baka won tu kpu'a tan'.
AT that time Jesus walked through corn-fields on a sabbath-day; and his disciples were hungry, and began to pluck the ears of corn, and to eat.
2 U Farisawa baka toh nda tre ni Yesu, toh mrli kol me ba ki tie kpye wa ana he ni tu nkon na ni vi u sabat.
But when the Pharisees saw it, they said to him, Behold, thy disciples do a thing that it is not lawful to do on the sabbath.
3 U Yesu ka hla bawu, “Bina kra na ikpye wa Dawuda a tie ka' yon tie wu, wawu ni lilon wa bana he niwu'a?
And he said unto them, Have ye not read what David did, when he was hungry, and they who were with him?
4 Niwa ari ni tra Rji nda tan bredi wa doka ana y'me ndu wawuma ni lilon ba tan na nituwa bi ki kima, Furist, mrgyen doka a y'me ni bawu ndu tan?
how they went into the house of God, and did eat the loaves of shew-bread, of which it was not lawful for him or those who were with him to eat, but for the priests alone?
5 Bina kra ni mi doka wa a tre, ni vi bi sabat, Firist wa ba tie ndu ni tra Rjia ba tie ndu mba me u bana latre na?
Or have ye not read in the law, that on the sabbaths the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are not culpable?
6 U me wa yiwu, indi wa anna tra Rji a he'wa.
Now I tell you, That one greater than the temple is here.
7 Bina he ni toh ka wahi ngye, 'Mi wa yah wruhle zan ndu; bi din na nha' bi tie zizi ni latre na.
But if ye had known what that meant, I desire mercy and not sacrifice; ye would not have condemned the innocent.
8 E ivren ndi a Baci u sabat.
For the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
9 U Yesu wlu ni wrji kima nda hi ni tra Rji mba.
And going on from thence, he came into their synagogue;
10 U ndi ni wa wo ma a soo'a ahe nikiyi, Farisawa baka myen Yesu nda tre, “A he tuh nkon ndu ba den lilo ni vi sabat? “Ni ndu ba rewu nya nda a latre.
and, behold a man was there who had a withered hand. And they asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on sabbath days? that they might accuse him.
11 Yesu a hla ni bawu “Ahi nha rimbi wa ahe ni ngble ntma ririyi, u nt'ma kima joku na vron juju ni vi sabat wa ana cuwu rju na?
Then he said to them; What man of you is there who hath one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath, doth he not lay hold on him, and lift him out?
12 Ba tie nihe rli nda tsra daraya ndi ni ntma! Anita he toyi ka wa bi ndu ba tie zizi nivi sabat.
Of how much more value then is a man than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to do good on the sabbath days.
13 U Yesu ka hla ni ndi'a “N'ma wo me” A n'ma wo ma, u wo'a katie dindi towa wa bana ngrjia.
Then saith he to the man, Stretch out thy hand; and he stretched it out, and it was restored, sound as the other.
14 U ba Farisawa ba rju hi ra' nda ka nzon nyu ni tu ma. Nda wa nkon wa ba wuua.
Then the Pharisees went out, and held a consultation against him, how they might make away with him.
15 Yesu a tsen toh nda wlu don wrji kima. Indi gbugbu wu baka hu, u wa a den ba wawu-u.
But Jesus knew it, and retired from thence, and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all,
16 A 'mha ba din' ndu bana ndu ndi toh wawu na,
and charged them that they should not make him known.
17 ni ndu tre'a he towa a rju ni nyu anebi Ishaya wa atre din,
That what was spoken by Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, saying,
18 To granmu wa mi cuwu'a ivren wami son wu'a, wa idrimu ni ngri niwua. Mi yoh, Brji mu ni tuma ani hla nkponji ni bi l'me baria
“Behold, my servant, whom I have chosen, my beloved, in whom my soul delighteth: I will put my Spirit upon him, and he shall proclaim judgment for the heathen.
19 Ana gbisron nda kla ngble nyu na u ndio nawo lanma ni nkon bi mi gbu na.
He shall not contend, nor be clamorous; neither shall any man in the streets hear his voice.
20 Ana nzizi ngba kpu wo'a ndju'a na ana y'bi (fitila) wa tie wiewiere vkwu na ani he tohkime ni ndu nji nkponji (hi kle) (ngyren me).
A bruised reed shall he not break down, and smoking flax shall he not quench, until he break forth in judgment for victory.
21 U ni nde ma bi l'me barima bayo suron niwu.
And in his name shall the Gentiles hope.”
22 U nilime, ba nji ndi ri u fyen wa a con l'me nda he ni brji meme ye ni Yesu. A clen wu kpacuwo mla wa indi u con l'me ka tre u shishi ma kafe toh.
Then was brought to him a demoniac, blind and dumb; and he cured him, so as to enable the blind and dumb both to speak and see.
23 U kpentren nili ba wawu mbawu baka manji ma wakran nda tre “Ka ani wayi' yi ni vren Dawuda?
And all the multitudes were lost in amazement, and they said, Is not this the son of David?
24 U wa Farisawa ba ba' wo kpye u sisri yin ba' tre. “Iguyi ani ju brji meme ba ni Bahalzabul ichu bi brji”.
But the Pharisees hearing them, said, This fellow casteth not out devils, but by Beelzebub, the prince of the devils.
25 U Yesu a toh mre mba nda tre, Mulkiwa a gah kpama ana krli na, u igbu ka ikoh wa a gah tie nka'a, ana krli na ani zi hlega.
But Jesus knowing their thoughts, said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself will be desolated; and every city, or family, divided against itself cannot subsist:
26 U shetan nita ju shetan rju ka' a gah kpama uni he rli mulki ma ni krli.
so if Satan cast out Satan; he is divided against himself; how then can his kingdom subsist?
27 U mitani ju brji meme rju ni ngbengblen Bahalzabul, u mrli mbi ba ju bi u mba rju ni ngye? Ni tu treyi ahi baba yi mba tie shiriyayiw.
And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your sons cast them out? therefore shall they be your judges.
28 U mitie zu brji meme rju ni Brji u Rji to ka mulki Rji aye niyi.
But if I by the Spirit of God cast out the devils, then truly the kingdom of God is come unto you.
29 U ba tie he rli indi ni ri ni koh ndi u ngbengblen nda y'bi kpyi ma hamma ni vu ndi u ngbengblen lo guci rli na. Nikiyi a y'bi ikpyi ma ni koh'a.
Else how can one enter into a strong man’s house and plunder his goods, except he first bind the strong man, and then will he plunder his goods?
30 Iwa ana he ni me na anatie fu ni me, u iwa ana hume vu zia na, ani vu vra hlega.
He that is not with me, is against me; and he that associates not with me, scattereth abroad.
31 Towaa mi hla yiwu, ni latre ri uni kpa nde ri tie meme wa ndi ba tuwu a ba wru hle bawu, ani ta hi kpa nde Brji zizi tie meme bana wru hle na.
Therefore I say unto you, All sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven to men; but the blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven to men.
32 Indi wa atre meme ni tu vren ndi ba wru kima hlega wu u anita meme tre ni tu Ibrji tsratsra kima bana wruhle niwu ni ngbungblu yi na mba ni uwa ani ye'a. (aiōn g165)
And whosoever may speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever shall speak against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, nor in the world to come. (aiōn g165)
33 Sen kunkron dindi ma ndu klo dindi me, ka uka sen meme konkron ndu klo meme ma e ba'toh kunkron ni bii klo ma.
Either make the tree good, and its fruit good; or make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by the fruit.
34 Biyi mrli wan wa bi meme a, bi tie ni herli ndi hla kpye dindi? E ani kpye wa a shu ni mi sron mba inyu ni tre wu.
Ye broods of vipers, how can ye speak good things, yourselves being wicked? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
35 Indi dindi ani tie zizi rji nimi dindi from ma u meme ndi ani tie meme rji ni meme sron me
A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth good things: and a wicked man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth evil things.
36 Mi hla yiwa ni vi ubla latrea, indi ba bla meme tre mba wa ba hlaa.
But I tell you, That every idle word which men speak, for it shall they give an account in the day of judgment.
37 E a ni tre u nyume mba u gbuj'bu u ni tre nyu meyi ba lowu.
For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
38 Ni nton kima bi nha bari ni Farisawa ba saa' ni' Yesu na tre “Mala kie son kie din toh ngban ri gi niwu”
Then certain of the scribes and Pharisees addressed him, saying, Master, we desire to see a sign from thee.
39 U Yesu a ka saa' bawu nda tre, “Izan bi meme ni kba bi tie ntran yi ba wa ngban. Igban n nahe wa ba nno ba na zan igban u anebi Yunana.
But he answered and said unto them, A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh a sign; and no sign shall be given it, but the sign of Jonah the prophet:
40 E na wa Yunana a tie ri tra ni cu' tra ni mi nne kiekle lambe a tokime ivren ndi ni tie vi tra ni cu tra ni mi sron meme.
for as Jonah was in the belly of the whale three days and three nights; so shall the Son of man be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights.
41 Indi bi nine va ba' wlu klri ni vi u bla latre ni ndi bi nzan biyi nda hla meme tie mba ni bawu.
The men of Nineveh shall rise up in judgment against this generation, and condemn it: for they repented on the preaching of Jonah; and behold, a greater than Jonah is here.
42 Saro niya u kogbo ani wlu klri ni ndi bi nzan bayi nivi u bla latre nda hla meme mba ni bawu. Aye rji ni nci ngbungblu nda ye wo bii wierli u Sulema, u toh, indi wa azan Sulema ahe niwa.
The queen of the South shall rise up in judgment against the men of this generation, and condemn it: for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, a greater than Solomon is here.
43 Meme brji nita rju nimi ndi ani y'ba zu ni buba wa imma na hena nda wa wrji wa ani son a nda na toh na.
When the unclean spirit is indeed gone out of a man, he traverses through places destitute of water, in search of rest, but cannot find it.
44 Ani tre mi kinahi ni kohmu wa mi rjia to nda kina hi nda toh koh'a ba mla vuwu nda mlau tie.
Then he saith, I will return to my mansion, whence I came; and on his arrival, he findeth it unoccupied, swept, and furnished.
45 Ni nton kima ani hi nji ibrji tangban bari wa trieme ba zan u ma nda ye son ni kiyi. U' yah ndi kima ni meme zan u mumla. Ani he to kima ni bi nzanyi”
Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. So shall it also be with this wicked generation.
46 Yesu a rli si tre ni kpantren ndi ba me u yima ni ba mrli vayi ma ba klri ni kora nda ni wa tre niwu.
And while he was yet speaking to the multitudes, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, desiring to speak to him.
47 Indi a hla wu, Tomba iyime ni ba mrli vayime ba klri ni kora nda ni wa tre niwu”
And a person said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak to thee.
48 U wa a saa' niwu nda tre ni ndi wa a hla wua, I nhamba hi yimu u ba nha mba ba mrli vayimu?”
But he answered and said to him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?
49 Nikiyime a nina woma tsro hi ni mrli koh ma ba nda tre, “To ba yimu ni mrli vayi mu bayi!
And stretching out his hand towards his disciples, he said, Behold my mother and my brethren.
50 E indi wa ani tie kpyi bi tiemu wa ahe ni mi shulu a indi kimayi hi vayimu vrenlon ni vayimu vrenwa ni yimu”
For whosoever shall do the will of my Father who is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.
