< Matthew 18 >

1 In that hour the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Who then is greater in the kingdom of the heavens?
Ho alu lo lvbwlaksu vdwv Jisu gvlo aala, tvvkato, “Nyidomooku gv Karv tolo yvvla kaiyachok jinv ngv?”
2 And having called in a child, Jesus set it in the midst of them.
Vkvlvgabv Jisu vmi go gokla bunugv kaagialo dakmuto,
3 And he said, Truly I say to you, if ye are not turned, and become as children, ye will, no, not enter into the kingdom of the heavens.
okv minto, “Ngo nonua milv jidunv vdwlo nonu mvngdinla so vmi so aingbv rima redw, nonu vdwloka Nyidomooku Karv tolo aala mare.
4 He therefore who will make himself lowly as this child, this man is the greater in the kingdom of the heavens.
Yvvdw so vmi aingbv rila nyanyak dunv hv Nyidomooku gv Karv tolo kaiyachok nvgobv rireku.
5 And whoever will receive one such child in my name receives me.
Okv yvvdw svkvnv vmia ngoogv amin bv alvbv naarwk sidunv, hv ngamka naarwk sidunv.”
6 But whoever may cause one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it is advantageous for him that a donkey-powered millstone were hanged on his neck, and he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
“Yvv akonv so miangnv vdw sokv akonyi nga mvngjing nvnga mva riadunv, ho nyi angv vbvribolo alvyare ninyigv lvngpo lo vlwng pwktv nvgo paklwk sutola svmasa bolo poklwk sunam mv.
7 Woe to the world because of stumbling-blocks. For it is necessary that the stumbling-blocks come, yet woe to that man through whom the stumbling-block comes.
Achialvbv mvngru runam gubv rire nyiamooku gv nyi vdwa ogulvgavbolo bunugv mvngjwng nga ngoomu jinv ngv achialvdu! Vkv nvngv lokia ribwngre-vbvritola yvvdw um bunua rimudunv hv achialvbv mvngru runam gubv rire!
8 And if thy hand or thy foot causes thee to stumble, cut them off and cast from thee. It is good for thee to enter into life crippled or maimed, than having two hands or two feet to be cast into the eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)
“Noogv laak gunv vmalo lvpa gunv noogv mvngjwng nga mvlamva riadu bolo, hum palin gvrila ora tvka! noogv lvgabv hv alvyare turnamlo laak vmalo lvpa gunv kaamabv vngnam mv, vbvmayabv laak laknyia okv lvpa lvnyia gvtola vmv doobwngnv gula dookulo orlwk komam svnga. (aiōnios g166)
9 And if thine eye causes thee to stumble, remove it and cast it from thee. It is good for thee to enter into life one-eyed, than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire. (Geenna g1067)
Okv noogv nyik gunv noogv mvngjwng nga nyemu bolo, hum koolin gvrila ora tvka! Noogv lvgabv si alvyare no nyik nyikin tvvla singkulo vngnam mv, vmabvya nyik nyiknyia gvtola uyumooku bolo orlwk komam svnga. (Geenna g1067)
10 See that ye not disparage one of these little ones, for I say to you, that in the heavens their agents do always behold the face of my Father in the heavens.
“Kaatoka nonuno miangnv vdw so gv akonyika mvngnyekalo mabvka. Ngo nonua mindu, bunugv nyidogindung ngv lokia nyidomooku lo doonv ngo Abu gvlo dooming gvnya dunv.
11 For the Son of man came to save that which was lost.
Nyia Kuunyilo ngv nyekunv vdwa ringlin tvkubv aapv kunv.
12 What does it seem to you? If it happens a hundred sheep are with some man, and one of them went astray, after going (having left the ninety-nine on the mountains), does he not seek the one going astray?
“Nonuno ogugo mvngdu nyi ako svlar lvnggo dooto okv akonv nyetoku? Nw kvvbi chamkia gula kia nga moodw lo nvmwng dvla rimu pila, nw vngla nyenv anga makardu.
13 And if he happens to find it, truly I say to you, that he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine that have not gone astray.
Vdwlo nw hum kaapa rekudw, ngo nonua mindu, nw nyenv akin ho lvgabv nyemanv chamkia gula akkia ngam svnga achialv kaiyago mvngpu yareku.
14 So, it is not a purpose before your Father in the heavens, that one of these little ones should perish.
So gv apiabv noogv Abu nyidomooku tolo doonv so gv miangnv vdw so akonyika ngoomu dubv mvngma dunv.
15 But if thy brother should sin against thee, go and reprove him between thee and him alone. If he should hear thee, thou have gained thy brother.
“Noogv achiboru ngv nam rinyingla rimur dubolo, vngla ninyigv rimur a kaatam laka. Vbvritola um nonyi anyi gv pingkolo risila rila ka. Nw noogv minam a tvvdu boloka, no noogv achiboru a ria yaala paakor pvku.
16 But if he should not hear, take with thee one or two besides, so that at the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
Vbvritola nw noogv minam a tvvma dubolo, no nyi lo ako vmalo anyigo noogv lvkobv vnggv laka, ogulvgavbolo Darwknv Kitaplo minam aingbv ‘Rimur mvnwngnga tvyakaayanv anyi aom lokv tvbwkkalo dukubv.’
17 And if he is heedless of them, speak to the church. But if he is also heedless of the church, let him be to thee as the heathen and the tax collector.
Okv nw bunua tvvmabolo, ogumvnwng nga Gvrja lo minpa laka. Ataranyabv nw Gvrja gv minam haka tvvma kubolo, ninyia mvngjwng manv gubv vmalo rimurnv nyi gubv toa lakuka.
18 Truly I say to you, however many things ye may bind on the earth will be things that are bound in heaven, and however many things ye may loose on the earth will be things that that are loosed in heaven.
“Okv vkvlvgabv ngo nonua mindunv: nonu sichingmooku so ogugo maakv vrikudw hum nyido mooku toloka maakv vrikunv, okv nonu sichingmooku so ogu gonyi vkv vrikudw hum nyido mooku toloka vkv vriku.
19 Again I say to you truly, that if two of you should agree on the earth concerning every matter, whatever they might ask, it will happen for them from my Father in the heavens.
“Okv ngo nonua minta jidunv: Vdwlo nonu sichingmooku so anyi gunv tolwk minsula ogugonyi kumridw, hum nonugv lvgabv ngoogv nyidomooku gv Abu ngv rijireku.
20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
Ogo lo anyi gunv vmalo aom gunv ngoogv amin bv dookum redw, ngo hoka bunua lvkobv dooming gvdunv.
21 Then Peter having come to him, he said, Lord, how often will my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Until seven times?
Vbvrikunamv Pitar Jisu gvlo aatoku okv tvvkato, “Ahtu nga ngoogv boruv rinyingla rimur morbwng bolo, ngo ninyia vdwgo mvngnga jidubv? Kanw guri?”
22 Jesus says to him, I say to thee, not until seven times, but until seventy times seven.
Jisu mirwkto, “Ma, kanw mwngma, kanw hv chaamkanw lo gubv,
23 Because of this the kingdom of the heavens is compared to a man, a king, who wanted to settle account with his bondmen.
ogulvgavbolo Nyidomooku gv Karv ngv svbv ridunv. Kvlokvcho dvbv ako dooto, nw ninyigv pakbu vdwgv narnamha kaaka dukubv mintoku.
24 And when he began to settle, one debtor of ten thousand talents was brought to him.
Nw vbv rirap kunam gula bunugv lokv pakbu ako, nw gvlo morko kororgo narnv anga aagv toku.
25 But of him not having to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife and children, and all things, as many as he had, and payment to be made.
Pakbu angv morko dvdu nga dorla kuma toku, vkvlvgabv dvbv ngv morko dvdua dordu kubv nw nyila ninyigv nywng umvuu vdwa nyirabv okv ninyigv yikungyira dvdv nga piokdu kubv orto jitoku.
26 The bondman therefore having fallen down, worshiped him, saying, Lord, be patient toward me and I will pay thee all.
Pakbu angv lvbwng kumpvla dvbv gv habolo gipvto. Nw kodwkkrwkla koola minto, ‘Nga achukgo dooria jilabvkv, okv ngo nam ogumvnwng nga dorku nvpv!’
27 And having felt compassion, the lord of that bondman released him, and forgave him the debt.
Dvbv ngv ninyia aya mvngpa toku, vkvlvgabv dvbv ninyia morko dvdu nga mvngnga jitoku okv ninyia vngmu toku.
28 But after going out, that bondman found one of his fellow bondmen who owed him a hundred denarii. And having grabbed him, he choked him, saying, Pay me if thou owe anything.
Vbvrikunamv nyi angv vnglintoku okv ninyigv pakbu ajin gonyi vngrwk suto hv kvvlo nw gvlo morko achukgo narnv go. Nw hum gakbwng gvrila dvngrapto okv minto, “Ngoogvlo narnam a baapubv jikur lakubv.”
29 So his fellow bondman having fallen down at his feet, besought him, saying, Be patience toward me, and I will pay thee.
Ninyigv pakbu ajin angv ninyigv lvpa lvkwnglo gipv la ninyia koodwkkrwkla koola minto, ‘Nga ayala achukgo dooya jilabv, ngo nam dvdua dorku nvpv!’
30 But he would not, instead, having left him, he cast him into prison until he would pay that which was owed.
Vbvritola nw um tvvmato; vmabvya nw nyi anga dvdua dorma dvdvlo doomure vla patwk tumlwk yatoku.
31 And when his fellow bondmen saw the things that happened, they were extremely sorry. And after coming, they reported to their lord all the things that happened.
Vdwlo dvbv pakbu gunv vbvrinam a kaapa tokudw, dvbvnyi ogumvnwng nga minpa toku.
32 Then his lord having summoned him, he says to him, Thou evil bondman, I forgave thee all that debt because thou besought me.
Vkvlvgabv nw pakbu anga goklwk toku. Nw minto, ‘Arin kaamanv nyira noo! Noogv ngoogvlo morko narnam mvnwngnga ngo nam mvngnga jitoku, noogv nga vbv koonam lvkwngbv.
33 Was it not necessary for thee also to be merciful to thy fellow bondman, as I also was merciful to thee?
Ngoogv nam aya mvngpanam aingbv, no pakbu ajin a aya mvngpa rungse gui.’
34 And having become angry, his lord delivered him to the tormentors until he would pay all that was due to him.
Dvbv ngv achialvbv haachi toku, vkvlvgabv nw pakbu anga dvdu nga gvma dvdvlo mvrit modubv vla patwklo vngmu toku.”
35 So also my heavenly Father will do to you, if ye do not forgive each man his brother, from your hearts, their trespasses.
Okv Jisu minyabv mintoku, “Vkv aingbv ngoogv Abu nyidomooku tolo doonv, mvnwngnga mvre, vdwlo nonuno haapok raying lokv achiboru gv rimur a mvngnga maridw.”
