Matthew 19
1 And it came to pass when Jesus had finished these discourses, that he departed from Galilee, and came into the borders of Judea, beyond the Jordan.
Lẹ́yìn tí Jesu ti parí ọ̀rọ̀ yìí, ó kúrò ní Galili. Ó sì yípo padà sí Judea, ó gba ìhà kejì odò Jordani.
2 And many multitudes followed him; and he cured them there.
Ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn sì ń tọ̀ ọ́ lẹ́yìn, ó sì mú wọn láradá níbẹ̀.
3 And the Pharisees came to him to tempt him, and said to him: Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?
Àwọn Farisi wá sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ láti dán an wò. Wọ́n bi í pé, “Ǹjẹ́ ó tọ̀nà fún ọkùnrin láti kọ ìyàwó rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ nítorí ohunkóhun?”
4 He answered and said to them: Have you not read that the Creator, at the beginning, created them male and female,
Ó dáhùn ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹyin kò ti kà á pé ‘ẹni tí ó dá wọn ní ìgbà àtètèkọ́ṣe, Ọlọ́run dá wọn ni ti akọ ti abo.’
5 and said, For this cause shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and the two shall be one flesh?
Ó sì wí fún un pé, ‘Nítorí ìdí èyí ọkùnrin yóò fi baba àti ìyá rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, òun yóò sì dàpọ̀ mọ́ aya rẹ̀, àwọn méjèèjì yóò sì di ara kan.’
6 So then, they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together, let not man put asunder.
Wọn kì í túnṣe méjì mọ́, ṣùgbọ́n ara kan. Nítorí náà, ohun tí Ọlọ́run bá ti so ṣọ̀kan, kí ẹnikẹ́ni má ṣe yà wọ́n.”
7 They said to him: Why, then, did Moses command us to give a bill of divorce and put her away?
Wọ́n bi í pé: “Kí ni ìdí tí Mose fi pàṣẹ pé, ọkùnrin kan lè kọ ìyàwó rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ nípa fífún un ní ìwé ìkọ̀sílẹ̀?”
8 He said to them: Moses, on account of the hardness of your hearts, permitted you to put away your wives; but from the beginning it was not so.
Jesu dáhùn pé, “Nítorí líle àyà yín ni Mose ṣe gbà fún yín láti máa kọ aya yín sílẹ̀. Ṣùgbọ́n láti ìgbà àtètèkọ́ṣe wá, kò rí bẹ́ẹ̀.
9 But I say to you, That whoever puts away his wife, unless for lewdness, and marries another, commits adultery; and he that marries her that is put away, commits adultery.
Mo sọ èyí fún yín pé, ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá kọ aya rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, láìṣe pé nítorí àgbèrè, tí ó bá sì fẹ́ ẹlòmíràn, ó ṣe panṣágà.”
10 His disciples said to him: If the relation of man and wife be such, it is not good to marry.
Àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ wí fún un pé, “Bí ọ̀rọ̀ bá rí báyìí láàrín ọkọ àti aya, kó ṣàǹfààní fún wa láti gbé ìyàwó.”
11 But he said to them: All can not accept this saying; only those to whom it is given.
Jesu dáhùn pé, “Gbogbo ènìyàn kọ́ ló lé gba ọ̀rọ̀ yìí, bí kò ṣe iye àwọn tí a ti fún.
12 For there are eunuchs that were born such from their mother’s womb; and there are eunuchs that have been made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs that have made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. Let him accept it that is able to accept it.
Àwọn mìíràn jẹ́ akúra nítorí bẹ́ẹ̀ ní a bí wọn, àwọn mìíràn ń bẹ tí ènìyàn sọ wọn di bẹ́ẹ̀; àwọn mìíràn kọ̀ láti gbé ìyàwó nítorí ìjọba ọ̀run. Ẹni tí ó bá lè gbà á kí ó gbà á.”
13 Then little children were brought to him, that he might lay his hands on them and pray. And the disciples rebuked them.
Lẹ́yìn náà a sì gbé àwọn ọmọ ọwọ́ wá sọ́dọ̀ Jesu, kí ó lè gbé ọwọ́ lé wọn, kí ó sì gbàdúrà fún wọn. Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ bá àwọn tí ó gbé wọn wá wí.
14 But Jesus said: Let the little children come to me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
Ṣùgbọ́n Jesu dáhùn pé, “Ẹ jẹ́ kí àwọn ọmọdé wá sọ́dọ̀ mi, ẹ má ṣe dá wọn lẹ́kun, nítorí irú wọn ni ìjọba ọ̀run.”
15 And he laid his hands on them, and departed from that place.
Lẹ́yìn náà, ó gbé ọwọ́ lé wọn, ó sì kúrò níbẹ̀.
16 And behold, one came and said to him: Good teacher, what good thing must I do that I may have eternal life? He said to him: (aiōnios g166)
Ẹnìkan sì wá ó bí Jesu pé, “Olùkọ́, ohun rere kí ni èmi yóò ṣe, kí èmi kí ó lè ní ìyè àìnípẹ̀kun?” (aiōnios g166)
17 Why do you call me good? There is none good but one, that is God. But if you desire to enter into life, keep the commandments.
Jesu dá a lóhùn pé, “Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi ń béèrè nípa ohun rere lọ́wọ́ mi. Ẹni kan ṣoṣo ni ó wà tí í ṣe ẹni rere. Bí ìwọ bá fẹ́ dé ibi ìyè, pa àwọn òfin mọ́.”
18 He said to him: Which? Jesus replied: You shall not kill; You shall not commit adultery; You shall not steal; You shall not give false testimony;
Ọkùnrin náà béèrè pé, “Àwọn wo ni òfin wọ̀nyí?” Jesu dáhùn pé, “‘Ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ pànìyàn; ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ ṣe panṣágà; ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ jalè; ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ́rìí èké’,
19 Honor your father and your mother; and, You shall love your neighbor as yourself.
bọ̀wọ̀ fún baba àti ìyá rẹ. ‘Kí o sì fẹ́ aládùúgbò rẹ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ara rẹ.’”
20 The young man said to him: All these have I kept from my youth, what do I lack?
Ọmọdékùnrin náà tún wí pé, “Gbogbo òfin wọ̀nyí ni èmi ti ń pamọ́, kí ni nǹkan mìíràn tí èmi ní láti ṣe?”
21 Jesus said to him: If you would be perfect, go, sell your possessions, and give to the poor, and you shall have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.
Jesu wí fún un pé, “Bí ìwọ bá fẹ́ di ẹni pípé, lọ ta ohun gbogbo tí ìwọ ní, kí o sì fi owó rẹ̀ tọrẹ fún àwọn aláìní. Ìwọ yóò ní ọrọ̀ ńlá ní ọ̀run. Lẹ́yìn náà, wá láti máa tọ̀ mi lẹ́yìn.”
22 When the young man heard that saying, he went away grieved; for he had great possessions.
Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin náà gbọ́ èyí, ó kúrò níbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ìbànújẹ́, nítorí ó ní ọrọ̀ púpọ̀.
23 Jesus said to his disciples: Verily I say to you, A rich man will with difficulty enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Nígbà náà, ní Jesu wí fún àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ pé, “Lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín pé, ó ṣòro fún ọlọ́rọ̀ láti wọ ìjọba Ọ̀run.”
24 And again I say to you: It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
Mo tún wí fún yín pé, “Ó rọrùn fún ìbákasẹ láti wọ ojú abẹ́rẹ́ jù fún ọlọ́rọ̀ láti wọ ìjọba Ọlọ́run.”
25 When the disciples heard it, they were greatly amazed, and said: Who, then, can be saved?
Nígbà tí àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn gbọ́ èyí, ẹnu sì yà wọn gidigidi, wọ́n béèrè pé, “Ǹjẹ́ ta ni ó ha le là?”
26 But Jesus looked on them, and said to them: With men, this is impossible; but with God, all things are possible.
Ṣùgbọ́n Jesu wò wọ́n, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ènìyàn ni èyí ṣòro fún; ṣùgbọ́n fún Ọlọ́run ohun gbogbo ni ṣíṣe.”
27 Then Peter answered and said to him: Behold, we have left all and followed thee; what, then, shall we have?
Peteru sì wí fún un pé, “Àwa ti fi ohun gbogbo sílẹ̀, a sì tẹ̀lé ọ, kí ni yóò jẹ́ èrè wa?”
28 Jesus said to them: Verily I say to you, That, in the restoration, when the Son of man shall sit on his glorious throne, you also who have followed me shall sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
Jesu dáhùn pé, “Lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín pé, ‘Nígbà ìsọdọ̀tun ohun gbogbo, nígbà tí Ọmọ Ènìyàn yóò jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ tí ó lógo, dájúdájú, ẹ̀yin ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn mi yóò sì jókòó lórí ìtẹ́ méjìlá láti ṣe ìdájọ́ ẹ̀yà Israẹli méjìlá.
29 And every one that has left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name’s sake, shall receive a hundred-fold, and shall inherit eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Àti pé ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá fi ilé tàbí arákùnrin tàbí arábìnrin tàbí baba tàbí ìyá tàbí àwọn ọmọ, tàbí ohun ìní rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ nítorí orúkọ mí, yóò gba ọgọọgọ́rùn-ún èrè rẹ̀ láyé, wọn ó sì tún jogún ìyè àìnípẹ̀kun. (aiōnios g166)
30 But many that are first shall be last; and the last first.
Ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn tí ó síwájú nísinsin yìí ni yóò kẹ́yìn, àwọn tí ó kẹ́yìn ni yóò sì síwájú.’
