< Matthew 19 >

1 And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these words, he withdrew from Galilee, and came to the coasts of Judaea 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 great crowds followed him, and he healed them there.
Ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn sì ń tọ̀ ọ́ lẹ́yìn, ó sì mú wọn láradá níbẹ̀.
3 And the Pharisees came to him tempting him, and saying, 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 But he answering said [to them], Have ye not read that he who made [them], from the beginning made 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, On account of this a man shall leave father and mother, and shall be united 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 that they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.
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 say to him, Why then did Moses command to give a letter of divorce and to send [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 says to them, Moses, in view of your hardheartedness, allowed you to put away your wives; but from the beginning it was not thus.
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 unto you, that whosoever shall put away his wife, not for fornication, and shall marry another, commits adultery; and he who marries one 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 say to him, If the case of the man be so with his wife, 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 And he said to them, All cannot receive this word, but those to whom it has been 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 which have been born thus from [their] mother's womb; and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs of men; and there are eunuchs who have made eunuchs of themselves for the sake of the kingdom of the heavens. He that is able to receive [it], let him receive [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 there were brought to him little children that he might lay his hands on them and pray; but 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, Suffer little children, and do not hinder them from coming to me; for the kingdom of the heavens is of such:
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 having laid his hands upon them, he departed thence.
Lẹ́yìn náà, ó gbé ọwọ́ lé wọn, ó sì kúrò níbẹ̀.
16 And lo, one coming up said to him, Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may have life eternal? (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 And he said to him, What askest thou me concerning goodness? one is good. But if thou wouldest 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 says to him, Which? And Jesus said, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,
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 Honour thy father and thy mother, and Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
bọ̀wọ̀ fún baba àti ìyá rẹ. ‘Kí o sì fẹ́ aládùúgbò rẹ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ara rẹ.’”
20 The young man says to him, All these have I kept; what lack I yet?
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 thou wouldest be perfect, go, sell what thou hast and give to [the] poor, and thou shalt 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 But the young man, having heard the word, went away grieved, for he had large possessions.
Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin náà gbọ́ èyí, ó kúrò níbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ìbànújẹ́, nítorí ó ní ọrọ̀ púpọ̀.
23 And Jesus said to his disciples, Verily I say unto you, A rich man shall with difficulty enter into the kingdom of the heavens;
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 unto you, It is easier for a camel to enter a needle's eye than a rich man 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 And when the disciples heard [it] they were exceedingly astonished, saying, 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, looking on [them], 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 answering said to him, Behold, we have left all things and have followed thee; what then shall happen to us?
Peteru sì wí fún un pé, “Àwa ti fi ohun gbogbo sílẹ̀, a sì tẹ̀lé ọ, kí ni yóò jẹ́ èrè wa?”
28 And Jesus said to them, Verily I say unto you, That ye who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit down upon his throne of glory, ye also 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 who has left houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and shall inherit life eternal. (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 first shall be last, and last first.
Ṣùgbọ́n ọ̀pọ̀ àwọn tí ó síwájú nísinsin yìí ni yóò kẹ́yìn, àwọn tí ó kẹ́yìn ni yóò sì síwájú.’
