< Matthew 16 >
1 And Pharisees and Sadducees approached him to test him, and they asked him to show them a sign from heaven.
Anu bezi urusa nan ma sadukiyawa wa eh ahira a yeso wa nuari ubatta ume, ca ma bezi we imum idandang sa idi bezi ubari umeme.
2 But he responded by saying to them: “When evening arrives, you say, ‘It will be calm, for the sky is red,’
Ma kabirka ma gun we, “Ingi aseseri avuna innu wunjoro, i gu, 'Im-hh nisizo nisa rizi.'
3 and in the morning, ‘Today there will be a storm, for the sky is red and gloomy.’ So then, you know how to judge the appearance of the sky, but you are unable to know the signs of the times?
Ingi ya ira aseseri avuna nisisizo abe, igu, kani adi rubu ure. Ya rusa uzina seseri, i dake irusi uzina uganiya ugino me ba.
4 An evil and adulterous generation seeks a sign. And a sign shall not be given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah.” And leaving them behind, he went away.
Anu ganiya ugino me anu zattu rusan Asere wani wani ana buri wa nyara a bezi we imum, ada beze we ba. Si i yanana, yeso ma dusa ma ceki we.
5 And when his disciples went across the sea, they forgot to bring bread.
Sa anu tarsa umeme wa hana anire nikira, wa ringi wa pirke me ubiredi.
6 And he said to them, “Consider and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the Sadducees.”
Yeso ma gun wa, “Hirani, i wuzi seke unu yistin wa nu bezi urusa nan ma sadukiyawa.”
7 But they were thinking within themselves, saying, “It is because we have not brought bread.”
Wa tubi ubo acece unu gusa, “Nan uzatu aye unu biredi me unni.”
8 Then Jesus, knowing this, said: “Why do you consider within yourselves, O little in faith, that it is because you have no bread?
Sa yeso ma ira anime ma gu, “Shi anu hem ucin, nyanini ya wuna igusa i zoshi unu biredi?
9 Do you not yet understand, nor remember, the five loaves among the five thousand men, and how many containers you took up?
Anu me daki ya rusa ba? mu gira mu hono muni ya oro?
10 Or the seven loaves among the four thousand men, and how many baskets you took up?
Uganiya sa ma rin nanu aru anazi uni biredi unu sunare, mu gira muhono muni ya ori?
11 Why do you not understand that it was not because of bread that I said to you: Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the Sadducees?”
Nyanini ya wuna daki ya rusa uguna inbo aba ga ubiredi uni ba? ma guna wuzani seke unu yistin wanu bezi urusa nan ma sadukiyawa.
12 Then they understood that he was not saying that they should beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and the Sadducees.
A bini me anu tarsa umeme wa russi uguna wa wuzi seke in nanu bezi urusa nan masadukiyawa inzo uyistin me sa awuza ubiredi ba.
13 Then Jesus went into parts of Caesarea Philippi. And he questioned his disciples, saying, “Who do men say that the Son of man is?”
Sa yeso ma aye ukaisariya ufilibi ma ikki anu tarsa umeme ma gu, “Aveni anu wa gusan vana unu?”
14 And they said, “Some say John the Baptist, and others say Elijah, still others say Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
Wa gun me, “Aye wa gusa yohana unu baptisma, aye wa gussi Iliya, wa gussi Irimiya nan uye anyimo anu kurzuzo utize ta Asere.”
15 Jesus said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”
Ma gun we, “Shi naa, mi aveni?”
16 Simon Peter responded by saying, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
Siman Bitrus ma kabirka ma gu, “Ho mani vana Asere unu ivai.”
17 And in response, Jesus said to him: “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah. For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father, who is in heaven.
Yeso kabirka me ma gu, “Hu una re-aje mani siman vana u yohana unubu binama nan maye mani ma bezi we ba aco mani sa ma ra aseseri.
18 And I say to you, that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it. (Hadēs )
In kuri inbu we hu Bitrus mani, anipo nigeme indi bari anu am anu tarsa Asere, an de sa iwono izo me unu bari awe ba. (Hadēs )
19 And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatever you shall bind on earth shall be bound, even in heaven. And whatever you shall release on earth shall be released, even in heaven.”
In di nya we mabudi mati gomo ta seseri imum me sa ya tirza une izin unnu tira aseseri, imum me sa ya sopo une izin unu sopo aseseri.
20 Then he instructed his disciples that they should tell no one that he is Jesus the Christ.
Ma hunguko anu tarsa ume me ti tui kang kati wa buki uye agi memani vana Asere ba.
21 From that time, Jesus began to reveal to his disciples that it was necessary for him to go to Jerusalem, and to suffer much from the elders and the scribes and the leaders of the priests, and to be killed, and to rise again on the third day.
Abini me yeso ma tubi ubezi anu tarsa umeme ya cukuno me gbass ma ha urushalima make zito sasas atari ta nanu nan anu adandang nan anu unyirte udungara u musa a hume rono uku taru mahiri.
22 And Peter, taking him aside, began to rebuke him, saying, “Lord, may it be far from you; this shall not happen to you.”
Bitrus ma titi me nikira ma gbarika me ma gu, “Asere awu pit in ani me nan hu, ani me ida kemme hu ba ugomo Asere.”
23 And turning away, Jesus said to Peter: “Get behind me, Satan; you are an obstacle to me. For you are not behaving according to what is of God, but according to what is of men.”
Yeso ma gamirka ma gun Bitrus, “Abame unu bur, hu unu nyara irizi ini, ubassa timum ta nabo tini inzo ta Asere ba.”
24 Then Jesus said to his disciples: “If anyone is willing to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
Yeso ma gun anu tarsa umeme, “De sa ma nyara matarsum ca maya ri me nice nume ma ziki ijassi ma tarsum.
25 For whoever would save his life, will lose it. But whoever will have lost his life for my sake, shall find it.
De sa ma nyara maburi nice nume madi diri nice nume, de sa ma nyari me nice nume madi kem nini.
26 For how does it benefit a man, if he gains the whole world, yet truly suffers damage to his soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
Nyanini unu madi kem une vat i ikki nice nume? nani nyanini unu madi nya anyo anice nume?
27 For the Son of man will arrive in the glory of his Father, with his Angels. And then he will repay each one according to his works.
Vana unu madi eh nan ana kadura kameme anyumo ani nonzo na co ume me. Abini me madi nya kondevi imum anyo akatuma kame.
28 Amen I say to you, there are some among those standing here, who shall not taste death, until they see the Son of man arriving in his reign.”
Kadundure in bo shi aye ashi me sa wa turi abame wada wono we ba, wadi iri u aye uvana unu anyumo ati gomo time.”
