Luke 14
1 Then it happened, when He entered the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees to eat bread on the Sabbath, that they were watching Him closely.
Ni vi u chachu sati ri, wa a ri ni koh bi ninkon Farisawa ri du rhi biri, ndji ba sru shishi ni wu.
2 And then, there in front of Him was a man who had dropsy!
se ga ndi “U” lilo huk kpa.
3 And Jesus reacted by saying to the lawyers and Pharisees, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”
Yesu ya da mye bihan vuvu baba Farisawa, abi du ba chu lilo rju ni chachu sati ko an an?
4 But they kept silent. So He took hold of him, healed him, and let him go.
U ba sun ngbangbi, Yesu ka vu ni wo lunde da chu lilo rju niwu, da du hi kpama.
5 Then He addressed them saying, “Which of you, if a son or an ox falls into a pit, will not immediately pull him out on the Sabbath day?”
Yesu mye ba, ahi nha ni mi-mbi, inde vren ma, ko napron ma aku ni juju ni chachu sati, wa ana chu na?
6 And they could not answer Him regarding these things.
Bana kasa niwu na.
7 Then He told a parable to those who were invited, having observed how they kept trying for the best places, saying to them:
Da Yesu si ya ba da toh bi wa ba you ba ye, ba wa bubu sun bi ni koh, watre kayiyi, nda tre.
8 “Whenever you are invited by someone to a wedding feast, do not recline in the place of honor, in case someone more honorable than you has been invited by him;
Inde ba you hi ni bubu gan u gran na kuson ni bubu bi ninkon na, ani yiwu ba you ndi wa a zawu.
9 then he who invited you both will come and say, ‘You, give this man place!’ and then, with shame, you start to take the lowest place.
Inde ndji wa a you yi ha bi, aye, a ni tre no bubu sun me, “u shan ni ti'u, u” wu kma hi ni bubu bi kalachu.
10 Rather, whenever you are invited, go and recline in the lowest place, so that when your host comes, he may say to you, ‘Friend, move up higher.’ Then you will have honor in the presence of your fellow guests.
Inde ndji wa a you, a tre kpamu hon ye ni wayi, nakima, u ndji ba, ba no ninkoh, bana kpa wu tsri na. biwa bi son baba ni tebru'a.
11 Because everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
Indji wa a nzu tuma, baka ka tuma grji, wu wa u katu me grji, ba nzutu me hi shu.
12 Then He said directly to His host: “Whenever you give a dinner or a supper, do not invite your friends, nor your brothers, nor your relatives, nor rich neighbors, lest they also invite you back, and you be repaid.
Yesu hla ni ndji wa you ye, inde wu ta ni yo ndji ye ri biri, ko ni gan, u ka na yo kpukpan me na, ko mri vary me na, ko malan me na, ko bi kutra kahlan mena bi nklen na, baba me ba you ngame, wandi ba njiye niwu.
13 But whenever you make a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind;
Ba tie lulu yo don bana ban ni wu na,
14 and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you—you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.”
inde wu yo ndji ye ni gan me, u ka yo bi kalanchu, ni bi wa bana he ni gbengblen na, ni bi kple zah, ni bi fie, ba tie lulu you don bana he ni kpe wa ba han wu na. Don ba tie lulu yo ni chachu wu lunde bi kinklan suron.
15 Well when one of the fellow-recliners heard these things, he said to Him, “Blessed is he who will eat dinner in the Kingdom of God!”
Da indji ri wa a son ni tie bru ni Yesu awoh tre a, nda tre, ba tie lulu yo ni ndji wa ani rhi biri ni koh Irji.
16 So He said to him: “A certain man prepared a great banquet and invited many.
Yesu woh da tre ndi ndji ri atie gan rigra ma nda yo ndji gbugbu-u.
17 And at meal time he sent his slave to say to those who were invited, ‘Come, because everything is now ready.’
Da inton wu gan a tie, wa a ton ivren koh ma du hi hla ni bawu du ba ye, biri a we ye.
18 But they all alike began to make excuses. The first said to him: ‘I bought a field, and I need to go and see it. I ask you to have me excused.’
Wa wu bawu, bana yena, u mumla a tre ndi wawu le rju, wawu ni bi toh wru hle ni mu.
19 Another said: ‘I bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to test them. I ask you to have me excused.’
U na tre wawu le lando bi zran ton, mi yi tsra ba toh, mi bre wu, du wru hle ni mu.
20 Yet another said, ‘I have married a wife, and so I cannot come.’
U tra a tre ndi wawu gran wa, naki mina ye na.
21 So that slave came and reported these things to his master. Then the owner of the house became angry and said to his slave, ‘Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in here the poor and crippled and blind and lame.’
Da vren koh aye hla ni ti-koh ma ikpe biyi, u ti koh ma ka tie nfu, nda hla ni vren koh ma du hi gbagbla ninkon bi gbu i, ni kosan gbu, nda yo biwa bana he ni gbengblen na, ni bi chiche, ni bi fie baba bi kple zah.
22 And the slave said, ‘Master, what you ordered has been done, and there is still room.’
Vren koh a tre, iti koh, ikpie wa u tre a kle hra zizan bubu a na shu na.
23 Then the master said to the slave: ‘Go out to the roads and hedges and make people come in, so that my house may be filled.
Se ndji u koh ka hla ni vre koh ma hi nikoh ni kosan gbu ndi yo gbugbu ndji du ba ye du koh mu shu.
24 For I tell you that none of those men who were invited will get a taste of my banquet!’”
Mi hla ni yiwu, biwa mi you ba ni mumla ba na ye kpe ni iye u muna
25 Now large crowds were traveling with Him, and turning He said to them:
Basi zren ndji gbugbu basi hu, wa hla ni bawu,
26 “If anyone comes to me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple.
Du ndji wa ani ye nime, ndana kama ni tima na, mba iyima, ni iwa ma na, ni mri ma, ni mri vayi ma, mri lon baba mri mba ba, hra ni dri ma na, ana ya zama vren koh muna.
27 And whoever does not carry his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.
Indji wa ana he ni suron u ban giciye nda ye hu me na, ana ya son u vren koh mu na.
28 “Further, which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and calculate the cost, whether he has enough to complete it?
Ahi nha nimi mbi wa ani son be koh wu shu, nda na bla inklen wa ahe ni wu, ko ani tsra u, u me koh, ko ana tsra na.
29 This so he does not lay a foundation without being able to finish, and all who see it begin to ridicule him,
Inde a zi nchi koh'a, kana kle meh na, u biwa ba meh baba ba ka nza'u,
30 saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish!’
Ba ta tre toh ndji ani son meh koh, ana ya meh kle na.
31 “Or what king, going to engage another king in battle, does not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet the one coming against him with twenty thousand?
A chu rime ani hi taku ni chu ri nda na son nda bla bi taku ma toh ni mumla, ko soja ma bi gbengblen ba kai dubu wulon wa ani ya kbu tu ni chu rima mu wa a he ni bi gbengblen dubu shirin.
32 And if not, while the other is still far away he sends a delegation and asks for terms for peace.
To inde an ya na, ka wa sun si ni chu rima.
33 “So likewise, any of you who does not renounce all his own possessions cannot be my disciple.
Naki ba ndi wa ni mibi wandi ana ka kpe wa a he ni chu wo na, da ani ya k'ma tie vren koh mu.
34 Salt is good; but should the salt become insipid, with what can it be seasoned?
Ima a kpie ndindima, inde imma a sa ba mla tie ni ni ngyen?
35 It is fit for neither soil nor fertilizer; it is thrown out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”
Ana labi gana, sei baka ka hlega, ka kma tie toki ni meme, ndji wa ahe ni ton ka wo.
