Matiyu 9
1 Yesu a ri ni ghuu nda rugran hi ni gbu ma.
And having gone to the boat, he passed over, and came to his own city,
2 Mena, ba nji indi ri wa a soo kpa'a nda kru ni tabli. Wa Yesu atoh kiekle yo suron mba, a tre ni ndi u soo kpa'a, “Vuvren ngri. ba wru latre me hlega niwu”.
and lo, they were bringing to him a paralytic, laid upon a couch, and Jesus having seen their faith, said to the paralytic, 'Be of good courage, child, thy sins have been forgiven thee.'
3 U bi nha bari ba tre ni kpamba, “Iguyi ni latre”
And lo, certain of the scribes said within themselves, 'This one doth speak evil.'
4 U Yesu wa a toh imre sron mbaa' a tre “Bi ta' meme mre ngye nimi sron mbi?
And Jesus, having known their thoughts, said, 'Why think ye evil in your hearts?
5 Arime na he ni dii na ndu ba hla Ba wru latre me hlega 'Ka ndu bahla' wlunde ndi zren?
for which is easier? to say, The sins have been forgiven to thee; or to say, Rise, and walk?
6 To ni ndu yi toh ndi ivren indi a he ni ngbengble u wru latre u ngbugblu hle, A tre ni indi u soo kpaa', Wlunde ndi ban bubu u kru me ndi hi koh
'But, that ye may know that the Son of Man hath power upon the earth to forgive sins — (then saith he to the paralytic) — having risen, take up thy couch, and go to thy house.'
7 India ka wlunde nda hi ni koh.
And he, having risen, went to his house,
8 Wa gbugbu ndi ba toh a he toyi, ma manji ma wakran, nda gbyre Irji san wa anno indi bii ngbengblen yi.
and the multitudes having seen, wondered, and glorified God, who did give such power to men.
9 Yesu sihi nda ka toh ndi ri ni ko shishi wa ba yowu ndi Matiwu a son nitra u kpa ban. A hla wu, “Hume” A wlu huu.
And Jesus passing by thence, saw a man sitting at the tax-office, named Matthew, and saith to him, 'Be following me,' and he, having risen, did follow him.
10 Yesu a kuson nda si'rli birli u bi kpa ban nibi latre gbugbu mbawu baye kuson nda rli bi' ni ba Yesu ni bi hu'a.
And it came to pass, he reclining (at meat) in the house, that lo, many tax-gatherers and sinners having come, were lying (at meat) with Jesus and his disciples,
11 Wa Farisawa ba ba toh nayi, ba mye bihua, “Ani tu' ngye mba tiekoh mbi si rli ni bi kpa ban u bi latre?
and the Pharisees having seen, said to his disciples, 'Wherefore with the tax-gatherers and sinners doth your teacher eat?'
12 Yesu ka wo ba' nda tre, “e bi sikpa bana wa bi den na, ahi bi lilo mu.
And Jesus having heard, said to them, 'They who are whole have no need of a physician, but they who are ill;
13 To bika mla toh nayi rli, 'Ime mi wa wruhle ana indu ni mu na. Mina ye ni tu bi he tsra tsra ana miye ni tu bi latre.
but having gone, learn ye what is, Kindness I will, and not sacrifice, for I did not come to call righteous men, but sinners, to reformation.'
14 U bi hu Yahaya baye niwu nda tre kieta ni ba Farisawa kie vu nyu u bi hua ba ba taka ngye rli nda na tie na?
Then come to him do the disciples of John, saying, 'Wherefore do we and the Pharisees fast much, and thy disciples fast not?'
15 Yesu a hla bawu, “Bi tie ndu nitra u logran baki ni kuklu nyu u indi u gran rli he ni ba? E, inton niye wa ba ban indi u logran niba. Nikiyi mba ba vunyu.
And Jesus said to them, 'Can the sons of the bride-chamber mourn, so long as the bridegroom is with them? but days shall come when the bridegroom may be taken from them, and then they shall fast.
16 Indi wa ani fon pli sama kanha ni cice nklon na tie to kie ni yba nklon zan u mumla
'And no one doth put a patch of undressed cloth on an old garment, for its filling up doth take from the garment, and a worse rent is made.
17 Indi bana sru imma sa u inabi nimi mbu ntan kmo mana. Bata tie toki, intan aniyra tie meme nda ju'mma hlega. Toyi, ba sru mma sa' u inabi nimi mbuntan sa may tie towa na ndu ba yra tu hamba wuna”
'Nor do they put new wine into old skins, and if not — the skins burst, and the wine doth run out, and the skins are destroyed, but they put new wine into new skins, and both are preserved together.'
18 Yesu si tre ni ba u ndi ri wa ani mnkon ndi ba aye kuqu niwu. A tre, “Vrenwamu quu zazanyi, yeme ndi sawo wu ni ndu wlunde”.
While he is speaking these things to them, lo, a ruler having come, was bowing to him, saying that 'My daughter just now died, but, having come, lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.'
19 U Yesu Wlunde hu hi ni mrli koh ma ba ngame.
And Jesus having risen, did follow him, also his disciples,
20 Uwa ri ingarli wa azi juju tie se wlon don ha, a bleye konkon Yesu, nda kpyre nyu nklonma.
and lo, a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, having come to him behind, did touch the fringe of his garments,
21 “A tre ni sronma, Mita kpyre nklon ma mi fe si.
for she said within herself, 'If only I may touch his garment, I shall be saved.'
22 Yesu a k'maya nda toh wu nda tre, “Vrenwa mu, vu sron. Kikle yo sron me nnowu si”. Ni nton kima me afe si.
And Jesus having turned about, and having seen her, said, 'Be of good courage, daughter, thy faith hath saved thee,' and the woman was saved from that hour.
23 Wa Yesu ari ni koh ninkon ndi mba, nda toh bi vrli ngba ni j'bu ndi baki hanton.
And Jesus having come to the house of the ruler, and having seen the minstrels and the multitude making tumult,
24 A tre “Hiyi, e vrenwa na quu na, asi kru na “U baka zanwu u kpa tsri.
he saith to them, 'Withdraw, for the damsel did not die, but doth sleep,' and they were deriding him;
25 Wa ba ndu ndi barjuhi raa', a rihi mitraa nda vu wo vren wa nji, u vrenwa wlunde.
but, when the multitude was put forth, having gone in, he took hold of her hand, and the damsel arose,
26 Itre yi ka yan shu ni nh'ma kokii.
and the fame of this went forth to all the land.
27 Yesu rji ki zren y'ba sihi, u bi fyen harli bari baka hu, nda kla nglo nyu nda nitre,”Ivren Doda, to yah mbu ndi zota”.
And Jesus passing on thence, two blind men followed him, calling and saying, 'Deal kindly with us, Son of David.'
28 Yesu a ri hi ni koh rie u bi fyen ba baka wawu hi. Yesu hla bamu, “Bi kpay'me ndi mihe ngbengble utie tomba?” U baka kpay'me, 'e' Baci”.
And he having come to the house, the blind men came to him, and Jesus saith to them, 'Believe ye that I am able to do this?' They say to him, 'Yes, sir.'
29 U Yesu ka kpyre shishi mba nda tre, “Ndu he yiwu na wa bi yo sron mbi a.
Then touched he their eyes, saying, 'According to your faith let it be to you,'
30 U shishi mba baka bwu'. Yesu a mha ba nda tre, “Na ndu ndio wowa na.”
and their eyes were opened, and Jesus strictly charged them, saying, 'See, let no one know;'
31 Ma'memu, bahi nda ka bla tre kangon nklan kima.
but they, having gone forth, did spread his fame in all that land.
32 Wa bi fyen ba ba hia, baka nji indi u con l'me u me'me' brji yeni Yesu.
And as they are coming forth, lo, they brought to him a man dumb, a demoniac,
33 Wa a cu me'me' brji rju ni niwu a, indi u con l'mea katre. J'bu ndii baka manji ma wakran, ndatre, “kae, bii kpye yi bana toh wu ni Israila na!”
and the demon having been cast out, the dumb spake, and the multitude did wonder, saying that 'It was never so seen in Israel:'
34 U fansawa ba baka tre, “E a ni rju me'me' brji ba ni ngbenglen u chu bi brjii.”
but the Pharisees said, 'By the ruler of the demons he doth cast out the demons.'
35 Yesu a zren kagon gbu bi rlig ra ni bi tsitsa ba wawuu. Azi tsro tre Rji ni tra Rji, nda zi bla lan zizi u mwkai nda den bi kru kpa ni lilo bla wo.
And Jesus was going up and down all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues, and proclaiming the good news of the reign, and healing every sickness and every malady among the people.
36 Wa a toh kpentren ndii ba, a ka tie wie me ni tie yah' ni qungble mba. Bana he na nta'ma wa ba hama ni ndii u k'maba.
And having seen the multitudes, he was moved with compassion for them, that they were faint and cast aside, as sheep not having a shepherd,
37 A hla ni mrli koh ma, birli hi gbugbu, wa, u bi ndu ba ba fyi meyi.
then saith he to his disciples, 'The harvest indeed [is] abundant, but the workmen few;
38 Ahe nayi bika bre Baci u birli gbagbla me ni ndu tru bindu ba hi.
beseech ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he may put forth workmen to His harvest.'
