Matthew 16
1 The Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing him, asked him to show them a sign from heaven.
Ba Farisawa ni Sadukiyawa baye tsra wu nda ni mye u ndu tsro ba ingban ri rji ni shu.
2 But he answered them, “When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’
A saa ni bawu nda tre, “To yalu tie, bi tre, ani kpan megyen, ishua a hre me.
3 In the morning, ‘It will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ Hypocrites! You know how to discern the appearance of the sky, but you cannot discern the signs of the times!
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.
4 An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and there will be no sign given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah.” He left them and departed.
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.
5 The disciples came to the other side and had forgotten to take bread.
Mrli koh ma ba ru nne hi kosan korima nda tie rlisu ni nji bredi.
6 Jesus said to them, “Take heed and beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
Yesu a hla bawu, “Tie sesren me ndi mla ya Yisti u Farisawa ni Sadukiyawa ba”
7 They reasoned among themselves, saying, “We brought no bread.”
U mrli koh ma baka tre ni kpamba, Ahe wa kie na nji bredi a na.
8 Jesus, perceiving it, said, “Why do you reason among yourselves, you of little faith, because you have brought no bread?
Yesu a to nakima nda tre, Biyi bi tsitsa nkponji biki tre ngye ni kpambi ndi bi na nji bredi na?
9 Do not you yet perceive or remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up,
Bi rlihe to ka taka nitu ngble bredi ton wa indi dubu ton ba tana, u sisen bren bika vu shua na?
10 or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
Ka igble bredi tangban ni ndi dubu nzia, i sisen bren bi vu shu na?
11 How is it that you do not perceive that I did not speak to you concerning bread? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
Ani he rli u bi honto ndi mina si tre ni tu bredi na? “Tie sesren ndi mla ya yisti u Farisawa ni Sadukiyawa.
12 Then they understood that he did not tell them to beware of the yeast of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
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.
13 Now when Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?”
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?”
14 They said, “Some say John the Baptizer, some, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
Ba tre, Bari ba hla Yohana u tie batisma, bari Iliya u bari, Rimiya, ka iri ni mi anabawa.
15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”
A hla bawu, “U biyi bi tre me nha?”
16 Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
U sima Bitru a saa niwu nda hla, “Iwu yi u Kristi, Ivren Rji u sisren a”
17 Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.
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.
18 I also tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my assembly, and the gates of Hades (Hadēs g86) will not prevail against it.
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)
19 I will give to you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven; and whatever you release on earth will have been released in heaven.”
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”
20 Then he commanded the disciples that they should tell no one that he was Jesus the Christ.
Nikiyi Yesu a mha mrli koh ma ba ndi ndu bana hla ni ndiori ndi ahi Kristina.
21 From that time, Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.
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.
22 Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, “Far be it from you, Lord! This will never be done to you.”
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”.
23 But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me, for you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of men.”
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”
24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.
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.
25 For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it.
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.
26 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life?
Ahi ngye u zizi ma ndu ndi fe ngbungblua wawuu nda khwu? Ani ngye ri indi ni kawu sran nituma?
27 For the Son of Man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will render to everyone according to his deeds.
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.
28 Most certainly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste of death until they see the Son of Man coming in his Kingdom.”
Njanyimu mi hla yiwu, bari mbi wa bi krli niwa bana la khwu tona se ba to Ivren ndi ye ni mi mulki ma”
