Luke 15
1 Then resorted vnto him all the Publicanes and sinners, to heare him.
Ni bi kpa ban ni bi lah tre ba wa Yesu ye nasi wo wu.
2 Therefore the Pharises and Scribes murmured, saying, Hee receiueth sinners, and eateth with them.
Farisawa ni bi nha wawu mba u baluni chi ba gurgu ni kpa mba ndi, “I gu yi ani kpa bi lahtre nani ri la me niba.”
3 Then spake hee this parable to them, saying,
Yesu tre ka yiyi ni ba wu na yi.
4 What man of you hauing an hundreth sheepe, if hee lose one of them, doeth not leaue ninetie and nine in the wildernesse, and goe after that which is lost, vntill he finde it?
A nha nimi mbi, nita he ni nt'ma deri, u iri kado, “wa ana ka teseyi don tiya don na hi wa iriri njiye na?
5 And when he hath found it, he laieth it on his shoulders with ioye.
I dan a ka toh wu, ani ban sah kan to na ngyiri.
6 And when he commeth home, he calleth together his friendes and neighbours, saying vnto them, Reioyce with mee: for I haue founde my sheepe which was lost.
Inde a k'maye ko, ani yo kpukpan ma, ni mri vayi bi yiu nkon kahlan ma kabi, “Ye ki ngyiri mi ka toh nt'ma mu'a wa a kado a.
7 I say vnto you, that likewise ioy shall be in heauen for one sinner that conuerteth, more then for ninetie and nine iust men, which neede none amendment of life.
Mi hla ni yiwu, ahe naki me ni shu me, ba ngyiri nitu indji iriri u lahtre wa a tuba'a zan indji teseyin don chiya bi wa bana lahtre na.
8 Either what woman hauing ten groates, if she lose one groate, doth not light a candle, and sweepe the house, and seeke diligently till shee finde it?
Ka ana he na iwa wa ahe ni glegbe nklen a zurfa wulon, u glegbe ri ni mi ma a nawo chuku miko kado, ana mbru lu yo ni fitila ma vu kagon sran ma na wa glegbe inklen, wa a nawo kado na?
9 And when shee hath found it, shee calleth her friendes, and neighbours, saying, Reioyce with me: for I haue found the groate which I had lost.
Inde a toh, “ani yo kpukpan ma ni mri vayi bi yiu kon kahlan ma wawu ye, na hla ni bawu,” ki ngyiri, mi toh glegbe iklen azurfa mu wa a kado'a ye.
10 Likewise I say vnto you, there is ioy in the presence of the Angels of God, for one sinner that conuerteth.
Ko na ki me, “Igir he ni shishi maleku Irji ni tu indji riri u lahtre wa a kpa tre Irji sisah, a (tuba).
11 He sayde moreouer, A certaine man had two sonnes.
U Yesu tre a ndi indji ri he ni mri hari,
12 And the yonger of them sayde to his father, Father, giue mee the portion of the goods that falleth to mee. So he deuided vnto them his substance.
Ivren tsitsa, yo tima, “Iti mu, “ne” ikpi wa a ni u mu ni mi wa (dukiya) mewa u he ni wu'a “u timba a vu ikpi bi wo ma ga ni bawu hamba.
13 So not many daies after, when the yonger sonne had gathered all together, hee tooke his iourney into a farre countrey, and there hee wasted his goods with riotous liuing.
Wa a na gbron knkon na, u vren tsitsa a kblu kpi wa ba ga ba wa'a ye sru ba ni wrji ri, na vuba, ri hi ni migu gbugban mu, hi zren ma ni gbungblu, “naka ri uma kle.
14 Nowe when hee had spent all, there arose a great dearth throughout that land, and he began to be in necessitie.
U iyon nri ni gbu'a kagon wawu'u meme da ndi me. “I wa lu ni wa kpi u ri (iya vu).
15 Then hee went and claue to a citizen of that conntrey, and hee sent him to his farme, to feede swine.
Wa hi na ka wa ndu niti ni guri ni mi gbu'a, “Wa, ton hi ni rju mari ni ndu ta no lede ma biri.
16 And hee would faine haue filled his bellie with the huskes, that the swine ate: but no man gaue them him.
Wa tie tilan u ri gbala biri wa lede ba ri don mbru'a.
17 Then he came to him selfe, and said, Howe many hired seruaunts at my fathers haue bread ynough, and I die for hunger?
U, imeme ma ye niwu nikpa ma, “Wa tre, A hi gran bre Itie mu vu ba ndu na ni nhan ba, u ba rila ma lan tu ba u mi son ni tiya ni yon.
18 I wil rise and goe to my father, and say vnto him, Father, I haue sinned against heaue, and before thee,
Mi lunde, ni wa yi hi ni itie mu, “ni bre wu, “Itie mu, mi lahtre ni shulu mba ni wu.
19 And am no more worthy to be called thy sonne: make me as one of thy hired seruants.
Na ban me ti vren me na, “Ban me tie na iri ni mi gran me wa ba tie ndu niwu.
20 So hee arose and came to his father, and when hee was yet a great way off, his father sawe him, and had compassion, and ranne and fell on his necke, and kissed him.
U vren tsitsa lunde k'ma ye ni itie ma, wa aa ri he gbron kon ria u itie'a toh, na ya lo suron, na tsutsu ka kriu wu na ma wu yiu.
21 And the sonne sayde vnto him, Father, I haue sinned against heauen, and before thee, and am no more worthie to be called thy sonne.
U vren tre, Itie mu, mi lahtre ni shulu ni lah tre ni wu, mi na la son ndu yo me tie vren me na.
22 Then the father said to his seruaunts, Bring foorth the best robe, and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feete,
U itie ma hla ni gran ma ri ni ndu hi ya inkon lon ndindima iri na ban ye, sru niwu na ban zobe ye yo niwu ni wo ni lagban ye son ni niwu ni zah.
23 And bring the fat calfe, and kill him, and let vs eate, and be merie:
Ni hi vu Ikrju u gon gon ma ye han wa niki ti gan.
24 For this my sonne was dead, and is aliue againe: and he was lost, but he is found. And they began to be merie.
Ivren mu ana kyu, zizan a he ni re
25 Nowe the elder brother was in the fielde, and when he came and drewe neere to the house, he heard melodie, and dauncing,
U vren ni kon'a, a na he ni rju. Wa ye whibuhir ni ko na wo ba tsi kangan na ni yo se na ni nglu.
26 And called one of his seruaunts, and asked what those things meant.
Wa yo iri ni mi igran ba, na miyen a ndi a hi nge itu kpi yi.
27 And hee sayde vnto him, Thy brother is come, and thy father hath killed the fatte calfe, because he hath receiued him safe and sound.
U igran hla ni wu, anitu wa tsitsa me a kma ye koh, u tie mendu ba nhan kikle krju u gon gon ma ni tu wa a kma ye ko pyan me.
28 Then he was angry, and would not goe in: therefore came his father out and entreated him.
U ninkon ma tie nfu na kama ri koh, u itie mba a rju ye bre wu.
29 But he answered and said to his father, Loe, these many yeeres haue I done thee seruice, neither brake I at any time thy commadement, and yet thou neuer gauest mee a kidde that I might make merie with my friends.
Vren ninkon lu miyen itie, “Ya Ise gbugbu wa mi tiya niwu, mina kamu ni wo tre mena, i wu na taba ne vren yawo ri ni ndu me kpa han tan ni kpukpan mu na, ni toh ro mana.
30 But when this thy sonne was come, which hath deuoured thy good with harlots, thou hast for his sake killed the fat calfe.
U vren me mba ye, iwa aka yan wo me kle ni bi ti ntran, “U ye nhan kikle ikrju niwu.
31 And he said vnto him, Sonne, thou art euer with me, and al that I haue, is thine.
Itie ma yo, Ivren mu, u he ni me koko ni tana Ikoh nge wa mi he ni wu'a a hi u me.
32 It was meete that we shoulde make merie, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is aliue againe: and hee was lost, but he is found.
Mi toh abi ni tawu ndu ki ta tie gan, ni ta ngyiri, ama vayi me yi na kyu, “I wa he ni re zizan, ana kado, u ki la toh.
