Matiyu 19
1 Ahe ni wa Yesu a hla tre biyi kle a, wa a wlu ni Galili hi nklan u Yuhudiya ni ko gran inne urdu.
AND it came to pass when Jesus had finished these sayings, he departed from Galilee, and came into the coasts of Judea beyond Jordan.
2 Gbugbu ndi baka hu, u wa a den ba.
And great multitudes followed him; and he healed them there.
3 Farisawa baye tsrawu nda mye wu, A he tu nkon ndu lilon ga gran ni wa ma ni tu kpye?
And the Pharisees came to him, tempting him, and saying, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?
4 Yesu a saa nda tre din “Bani kra ndi wawu wa atie ba rji ni mumla a tie ba lilon mba wa na?
But he replying, said unto them, Have ye not read, that he who created them from the beginning, created them male and female?
5 Wawu wa atie mba a tre ngame din 'A nitu tre yi mba lilon ni kaa tiema ni yima don nda kabi ni wama u baba harli ba ba kati kpa ri.
And he said, for this reason shall a man forsake father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
6 Bana la harli ngana bahi kpa ririi. Tikima ikpye wa Rji kau kabia ndu ndjio ri gawu tie nkan na.
Wherefore they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God hath yoked together, let no man separate.
7 U baka hla niwu, U ni tu ngye mba Musa a hla ridu ta nno imbe u gagran ndi la zu wa?
They say unto him, Why then did Moses command to give her a bill of divorce, and to put her away?
8 A hla ni bawu, “Ahe ni tu gbegbe sron mbi mba Musa a ndu yi zu mbambi, rji ni mumla ana he tokima na.
He saith unto them, It was on account of the hardness of your hearts that Moses gave you permission to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not thus.
9 Mi hla yiwu, indi wa a zu wamaa, u wama he nitu wa lilon na, nda hi kagran ndji ri a tielatre u tie kan.
And I tell you, that whosoever shall put away his wife, except for whoredom, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and he that marrieth the divorced woman, committeth adultery.
10 Mrli koh ba baka hla ni Yesu din “Ani ta he towa ni tu lilon mba wama, ka anabi ndu ndji gran na”
His disciples said unto him, If the case of a man with his wife be thus, it is not expedient to marry.
11 U Yesu ka hla bawu, “Ana ndji wawuu ba kpa tre yi na, se biwa ba kpa nyme ni bawu ndu ba kpa.
Then he said to them, All men are not capable of receiving this saying, but they to whom it is given.
12 Bari ba he wa ba ngrji hama ni krju'a u indji bari ba ka kpamba tie bi krju'a kimba ni tu mulki u shulu. I wa ani to kpa itsro yi a.
For there are eunuchs, who were so from their mothers’ womb; and there are eunuchs, who have been made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs, who have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven. He that is capable of receiving, let him receive it.
13 Nikima baka nji kpran mrli bari ye ndu sawo nda tie aduwa ni bawu u mrli kolo maa baka zu ba.
Then were brought to him little children, that he should lay his hands upon them, and pray for them: but the disciples rebuked them.
14 Yesu a hla, “Don kpran mrli ba ndi ni zu ba ni ye ni mena, e mulki u shulu ahi u bibi mba yi”
Then said Jesus, Permit little children, and hinder them not from coming to me; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
15 A kawo ma sa ni tu mba nda wlu ni kima hi kpama.
And when he had laid his hands upon them, he departed thence.
16 U indji ri aye ni Yesu nda tre, “Mala ayi ngye zizi wa ahi gbigbi ndu mi tiewu ni kpa son u kasese? (aiōnios g166)
And lo! a person coming to him, said, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, in order to attain eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
17 Yesu a tre din, “A ni tu ngye rli u mye me ikpye u zizi? Ahi ririyi megyen ahi zizi u ani ta ndi wu wa uri ni son kase, uka hu doka ba”
Then he said to him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, even God: but if thou art desirous of entering into life, keep the commandments.
18 Igua ka hla wu “Doka bari me?” Yesu hla wu na y'ba wo na tie kan na, na y'bi na, na klri ni gon ndji nice na.
He saith unto him, Which? Then said Jesus, these, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,
19 Wo tieme mba yime ndi son vayi me towa u son kpame a
Honour thy father and thy mother; and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
20 U vrenze a hla niwu “Ikpyi bayi mi tie ba wawuu ye. Ahi ngye rli don mu?”
The young man saith to him, All these things have I observed from my youth: in what am I still deficient?
21 Yesu a hiawu, U tina son ku nyren na uka hi vu kpyi me le ndi kpa klen a nnobi ya tokima u he ni kpyi ni shulu.
Jesus said to him, If thou art desirous to be perfect, go, sell all thy substance, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.
22 U wa vrenze'a wo kpye wa Yesu trea a k'ma hi kpama gbo dodo me ni tu wa ahe ni kpyi gbugbuwu.
Now when the young man heard this speech, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.
23 Yesu ka treni mrli koh ma ba “Njanjimu mi hla ni yiwu ahe ni dii ndu ndji u wo ndu ri ni igbu chu u shulu.
Then Jesus said to his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That very difficultly shall a rich man enter into the kingdom of heaven.
24 Mi hla yiwa ngarli, Ani he dii ni ndji u wo ndu ri ni gbu u chu shulu zan wa lakrumi ka ri ni ndo nnro”
And again I repeat it to you, It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
25 Niwa mrli kohma ba wo tokima baka manji ma wakran nda tre “Wa nha mba ni j'bu?”
But when his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved?
26 Yesu aya ba nda tre, “Ni ndji ana ti tu u ni Rji ikpi wawu mba wu ba tie tu”
And Jesus looking upon them, said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
27 Nikiyi Bitru ka saa nda tre niwu “To kie ka ko ngyeri don ndi huu. A ngyeri mba ki he wu?”
Then Peter addressing him, said unto him, Lo! we have left all and followed thee; what, I pray thee, shall we receive?
28 Yesu a tre ni mba “Njanjimu mi hla yiwu ni ngyrji u saa ni nton wa Ivren Ndji ni son ni ruron ma u chua biyi wa bi hume a bi son ni ruron chu tso ndi tron igrji tso u Israila.
Then said Jesus unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye who have followed me in the regeneration, when the Son of man shall sit on the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
29 Iwa aka ba koh, mrli vayi lilon, vayi mrli mba, itie, iyi, imrli, ka ba rju ni tu nde mu, ani kpa mla nkpu se wlon nda son kasese. (aiōnios g166)
And every one who hath left family, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name sake, shall receive an hundred fold, and shall inherit life eternal. (aiōnios g166)
30 U gbugbu wu wa ba bi u mumla ba k'ma tie bi klekle u bi klekle a ba katiebi mumla.
But many, now first, will be the last; and last, who will be the first.
