Matiyu 16
1 Ba Farisawa ni Sadukiyawa baye tsra wu nda ni mye u ndu tsro ba ingban ri rji ni shu.
And the Pharisees and Sadducees came to tempt him, and asked him to show them a sign from heaven.
2 A saa ni bawu nda tre, “To yalu tie, bi tre, ani kpan megyen, ishua a hre me.
But he answered and said to them: When it is evening, you say, Fair weather; for the sky is red.
3 To ahi mble, bi tre, luwa na kli megyen na, shulua klo kpalu kle gbua. Bi to hla kpan u shulu ndi na to hla ingban u ba nton na.
And in the morning, A storm to-day; for the sky is red and lowering. Hypocrites! you know how to judge of the face of the sky; but you can not judge of the signs of the times.
4 Ahi nza bi meme ni bi tie ntra mba ba wa ngban, e bana tsroyi ingban ri nkan na hama ingban u Yunana” Nikiyi Yesu a wlu hi kpama don ba.
A wicked and adulterous generation seeks for a sign: and no sign shall be given it but the sign of Jonah the prophet. And he left them and departed.
5 Mrli koh ma ba ru nne hi kosan korima nda tie rlisu ni nji bredi.
And his disciples came to the other side, and had forgotten to take bread.
6 Yesu a hla bawu, “Tie sesren me ndi mla ya Yisti u Farisawa ni Sadukiyawa ba”
And Jesus said to them: Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
7 U mrli koh ma baka tre ni kpamba, Ahe wa kie na nji bredi a na.
And they reasoned among themselves, saying: It is because we took no bread.
8 Yesu a to nakima nda tre, Biyi bi tsitsa nkponji biki tre ngye ni kpambi ndi bi na nji bredi na?
And Jesus perceiving it, said to them: O you of little faith! why are you reasoning among yourselves because you took no bread?
9 Bi rlihe to ka taka nitu ngble bredi ton wa indi dubu ton ba tana, u sisen bren bika vu shua na?
Do you not yet understand, nor remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
10 Ka igble bredi tangban ni ndi dubu nzia, i sisen bren bi vu shu na?
Nor the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
11 Ani he rli u bi honto ndi mina si tre ni tu bredi na? “Tie sesren ndi mla ya yisti u Farisawa ni Sadukiyawa.
How is it that you do not understand, that I did not speak of bread when I commanded you to beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?
12 Nikimayi baka to nda nasi hla ni bawu ndu na tie sesren ni yisti u mi bredi na, ahi ndu ba tie sesren ni tsro u Farisawa ni Sadukiyawa ba.
Then they understood that he did not bid them beware of the leaven of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
13 Ni nton wa Yesu aye ni ko nklan u Kaisariya Filip, a mye mrli ko ma nda tre, “Indi ba hla ndi Ivren Indi hi nha?”
When Jesus came into the regions of Cæsarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying: Who do men say that I, the Son of man, am?
14 Ba tre, Bari ba hla Yohana u tie batisma, bari Iliya u bari, Rimiya, ka iri ni mi anabawa.
They replied: Some say that thou art John the Immerser; others, Elijah; others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.
15 A hla bawu, “U biyi bi tre me nha?”
He said to them: But who say you that I am?
16 U sima Bitru a saa niwu nda hla, “Iwu yi u Kristi, Ivren Rji u sisren a”
Simon Peter answered and said: Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
17 Yesu a saa nda hla niwu, “Ba tie lulu niwu, Sima ivren Yunana, don ana rima mba yi ba nghran wayi niwa na ayi itie mu wa ahe ni shulu a.
And Jesus answered and said to him: Blessed are you, Simon, son of Jonah; for flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.
18 Mila ni hla niwu ndi iwuyi u Bitru, ni tu tita yi mi me iklisiya mu. Ba nkon tra u Hades bana kpawu ka na. (Hadēs g86)
And I say to you, That you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church: and the gates of hades shall not prevail against it. (Hadēs g86)
19 Mi nno wu ba hra u bwu mulki shulu. Ko ahi ngyeri wa wu lo ni ngbungblu a, ba lowu ni shulu, u ko gyeri wawu si ni ngbungblu a, ahe ni si ni shulu”
And I will give to you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever you shall bind on earth, shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you shall loose on earth, shall be loosed in heaven.
20 Nikiyi Yesu a mha mrli koh ma ba ndi ndu bana hla ni ndiori ndi ahi Kristina.
Then he charged his disciples to tell no one that he was the Christ.
21 Rji ni nton kima Yesu azi hla ni mrli koh ma ba ndi ahi gbigbi ndu wawu hi ni Urushalima nda hi tie ya ni tu ikpi gbugbu wu ni wo bi cice, ni Firist bi ninkon ni ba mala u atawura, u ba wuu, ka tash'me ni vi utra.
From that time Jesus began to tell his disciples plainly, that he must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders, and the chief priests, and the scribes, and be put to death, and be raised again the third day.
22 U Bitru ka nji wu hi ni kosan nda pua wu tre nda tre, “Ndu kpiyi na tie whiewhiereni wu na, Baci, ikpye yi na tiewu na”.
And Peter took him and began to rebuke him, saying: Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be to thee.
23 U Yesu a kima nda hla ni Bitru, K'ma hi ko gon mu, shetan! U nkon u k'bu za nimu don una yo sron ni kpi bi wu Rji na se kpi bi u ndi”
But he turned and said to Peter: Get behind me, adversary; you are a snare to me: for you are not thinking of the things of God; but of the things of men.
24 Ni kiyi Yesu a hlani mrli koh ma ba, “Du' wa ani son hu mea, ahi gbigbi ndu kama ni tuma, nda bhan nghran kunkron ma, nda hu me.
Then Jesus said to his disciples: If any one determines to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
25 E i wa ani wa' kpa tuma j'bu a, ani wau hama, u i wa a nno tuma ni nyu mu a afe wu.
For whoever will save his life, shall lose it. But whoever will lose his life for my sake, shall find it.
26 Ahi ngye u zizi ma ndu ndi fe ngbungblua wawuu nda khwu? Ani ngye ri indi ni kawu sran nituma?
For what is a man profited, if he gain the whole world, but lose his own life? Or, what will a man give as the ransom of his life?
27 Ivren ndi niye nimi gbarji kpan u tiema ni Maleku ma. Ni nton kima, ani nno ko nha dii ma u ndu wa a tie a.
For the Son of man will come in the glory of his Father, with his angels; and then he will reward every one according to his deeds.
28 Njanyimu mi hla yiwu, bari mbi wa bi krli niwa bana la khwu tona se ba to Ivren ndi ye ni mi mulki ma”
Verily I say to you, There are some standing here that shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.
