Matthew 17
1 Now after six days Jesus takes Peter, James and his brother John and leads them up on a high mountain, in private.
Bangʼ ndalo auchiel, Yesu nokawo Petro gi Jakobo, kod Johana owadgi Jakobo mi notelonegi ma gidhi ewi got malo kar kendgi.
2 And He was transfigured before them and his face shone like the sun, while His clothes became as white as the light.
Kane gin kuno kite nolokore ka gineno. Lela wangʼe norieny ka chiengʼ, kendo lepe nolokore rachar marieny ka ler.
3 When wow, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, conversing with Him.
Apoya nono Musa gi Elija nothinyore e nyimgi kanyo kendo ne giwuoyo gi Yesu.
4 Then Peter reacted and said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here; if you wish, let us make three booths: one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.”
Petro nowachone Yesu niya, “Ruoth, bedowa kae en gima ber. Ka iyiena to abiro gero kiru adek kae; achiel mari, achiel mar Musa to machielo mar Elija.”
5 While he was still speaking a brilliant cloud overshadowed them, and then, a Voice came out of the cloud saying: “This is my beloved Son in whom I am always well pleased. Hear Him!”
Kane pod owuoyo, boche polo nobiro apoya moumogi, kendo dwol moro noa e boche polo kawacho niya, “Ma en Wuoda mahero kendo en ema chunya mor kode, winjeuru!”
6 As the disciples heard it they fell on their faces and were greatly afraid.
Kane jopuonjre owinjo wachno, luoro nomakogi mi gipodho piny ka gikulo wiyegi piny.
7 Then Jesus came and touched them and said, “Get up, don't be afraid.”
Yesu nobiro irgi momulogi, kowacho niya, “Auru malo, kendo weuru bedo maluor.”
8 So lifting up their eyes they saw no one but Jesus only.
Kane gitingʼo wengegi, ne ok gineno ngʼato makmana Yesu kende.
9 As they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them saying, “Tell no one the vision until the Son of the Man is risen from the dead.”
Kane oyudo gilor gia ewi got, Yesu nowuoyo negi kowacho niya, “Kik uwach ne ngʼato angʼata gima useneno, nyaka chop kinde ma Wuod Dhano nochier koa kuom joma otho.”
10 So His disciples questioned Him saying, “Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”
Jopuonjre nopenje niya, “Kare angʼo momiyo jopuonj chik wacho ni Elija nyaka bi mokwongo?”
11 In answer Jesus said to them: “Elijah is indeed coming first, and he will restore all things.
Yesu nodwokogi niya, “Kuom adiera, Elija nyaka bi mondo oket gik moko duto kare.
12 But I say to you that ‘Elijah’ has come already, and they did not recognize him, but did to him whatever they wished. Thus also the Son of the Man is about to suffer at their hands.”
To awachonu ni Elija koro osebiro, to kata kamano ne ok giyange, kendo gisetimone gimoro amora mane gihero. Wuod Dhano bende ibiro sandi e lwetgi e yo machalre.”
13 Then the disciples understood that He spoke to them of John the Baptizer.
Eka jopuonjre noyango ni nowuoyo kodgi kuom Johana ja-Batiso.
14 As they came to the crowd a man approached Him and kneeling to Him said:
Kane gidwogo ir oganda, ngʼat moro nobiro ir Yesu mogoyo chonge piny e nyime.
15 “Lord, have mercy on my son, because he is moonstruck and suffers badly! For he often falls into the fire and often into the water.
Nowachone niya, “Ruoth, yie ikech wuoda, nikech en-gi tuo mar ndulme kendo osandore malit. Kinde duto opodho piny e mach kata e pi.
16 So I brought him to your disciples, but they could not cure him.”
Ne akele ne jopuonjreni mondo gichange, to ne otamogi.”
17 Then in answer Jesus said: “O faithless and perverse generation, how long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring him here to me.”
Yesu nodwokogi kawacho niya, “Yaye tiengʼ maonge gi yie kendo mokethoreni, anabed kodu nyaka karangʼo? Abiro chandora kodu nyaka karangʼo? Kel ane wuowino ka.”
18 And Jesus rebuked the demon and it came out of him, and the boy was healed from that very hour.
Yesu nochiko jachiendno, mi nowuok oa kuom wuowino, kendo nochango kochakore sano.
19 Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, “Why were we not able to cast it out?”
Eka jopuonjre nobiro ir Yesu lingʼ-lingʼ mi openje niya, “Angʼo momiyo wan ne ok wanyal golo jachiendno?”
20 So Jesus said to them: “Because of your unbelief; for assuredly I say to you, if you have faith like a mustard seed has, you (ye) will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.
Nodwoko kowacho niya, “Nikech un gi yie matin nono. Awachonu adier ni ka un gi yie matin marom gi koth karadali to unyalo wacho ne godni ni, ‘Wuogi ia ka idhi kacha,’ kendo dowuogi modhi. Onge gima nyalo tamou. [
21 However, this class does not go out except by prayer and fasting.”
To jachien ma kama ok nyal riembi ka ok ngʼato olamo matek kendo otweyo chiemo.]”
22 While they were staying in Galilee Jesus said to them, “The Son of the Man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men,
Kane gichokore kaachiel Galili, nowachonegi niya, “Wuod Dhano ibiro ndhogi mi keti e lwet ji.
23 and they will kill Him, and on the third day He will be raised.” And they were seriously grieved.
Gibiro nege, to chiengʼ mar adek ibiro chiere mobed mangima kendo.” Kendo jopuonjre nokuyo ahinya.
24 When they entered Capernaum those who collected the temple tax approached Peter and said, “Does your Teacher not pay the temple tax?”
Bangʼ ka Yesu gi jopuonjrene nochopo Kapernaum, jochok osuru mar dirachma ariyo ariyo nobiro ir Petro mopenjo niya, “Donge Japuonju chulo osuch hekalu?”
25 He says, “Yes.” So when they entered the house Jesus anticipated him saying: “Simon, what do you think? From whom do the kings of the earth take customs or poll tax, from their sons or from strangers?”
Nodwoke niya, “Ee, ochulo.” Ka Petro nochopo e ot, Yesu ema nokwongo wuoyo kode kapenje niya, “Iparo nade kuom wachni, Simon? Ruodhi mag piny choko osuru mopogore opogore kuom nyithindgi koso kuom jomoko?”
26 Peter says to Him, “From the strangers.” Jesus said to him: “Well then, the sons are free.
Petro nodwoko niya, “Kuom jomoko.” Yesu nowachone niya, “Ka kamano to kare nyithindo ni thuolo.
27 But, lest we offend them, go to the sea, cast in a hook, and take the fish that comes up first. And opening its mouth you will find a ‘stater’ [a coin]; take that and give it to them for me and you.”
To mondo kik wachwanygi, dhi e nam mondo ichik olopi; kaw rech mimako mokwongo; yaw dhoge, kendo ibiro yudo pesa moromo shekel achiel. Kawe imiye jogo kaka osucha kod mari.”
