Matthew 18
1 At that hour the disciples came near to Jesus, saying, “Who, now, is greater in the kingdom of the heavens?”
Lanyogunu bi hoadikaaba den naigini Jesu kani ki buali o: Tanpoli diema nni hme n baa tugi li yuli?
2 And Jesus having called near a child, set him in the midst of them,
Jesu den yini ki biwaaga ki sieni o bi siiga ki yedi:
3 and said, “Truly I say to you, if you may not be turned and become as the children, you may not enter into the kingdom of the heavens;
N waani yi i moamoani, yi yaa lebidi ki tua nani a biwaala yeni yi kan kua tanpoli diema nni.
4 whoever then may humble himself as this child, he is the greater in the kingdom of the heavens.
Yua n miini o yuli ki tua nani ya biwaaga n tie na kuli, wani n baa tugi li yuli tanpoli diema nni.
5 And he who may receive one such child in My Name, receives Me,
Yua n ga ki biwaaga nani one cangu kuli n yeli nni, ga mini yaa cangoe.
6 and whoever may cause to stumble one of those little ones who are believing in Me, it is better for him that a weighty millstone may be hanged on his neck, and he may be sunk in the depth of the sea.
Ama yua mo n baa teni ke yaa bonwaala n daani nni na siiga baa yendo n tudi kuli, li bi baa hani ki cie landaano po ban lani o li naacianli, ki lu o mi ñincianma nni wan mili ki bodi.
7 Woe to the world from the stumbling-blocks! For there is necessity for the stumbling-blocks to come, but woe to that man through whom the stumbling-block comes!
Fala baa ye leni handuna kelima li tingbali bonla yaa po. Kelima li kan tuo ke li tingbali bonla kan yaa ye. Ama fala baa ye leni yaa nilo n cuani la.
8 And if your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut them off and cast [them] from you; it is good for you to enter into life lame or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet, to be cast into the continuous fire. (aiōnios g166)
A nuu yaaka a taali ya tie tingbali bonla, han jia ki lu foagima. Kelima a ya baa yaa miali n kan gbeni leni taayenli yaaka nuyendu, li baa hani apo ki cie han yaa pia taana lie leni nii lie ban nan lu ha yaa fantama n ki pia gbindima nni (aiōnios g166)
9 And if your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and cast from you; it is good for you to enter into life one-eyed, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the Gehenna of fire. (Geenna g1067)
A nunbu n ya tie apo tingbali bonla, han logidi bu ki lu foagima, kelima a ya baa yaa miali n kan gbeni leni nuyendu, li baa hani apo li cie han yaa pia nuni lie ban lu ha ku fantabuogu nni. (Geenna g1067)
10 Beware! You may not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you that their messengers in the heavens always behold the face of My Father who is in the heavens,
Fangi mani yi yula ki da fali a bonwaala na siiga baa yendo, kelima n yedi yi ke tanpoli po bi malekinba ye baa yua n ye tanpoli nintuali yogunu kuli.
11 [[for the Son of Man came to save the lost.]]
Kelima o Joa Bijua cua ki baa faabi yaaba n yaadi.
12 What do you think? If a man may have one hundred sheep, and there may go astray one of them, does he not—having left the ninety-nine, having gone on the mountains—seek that which is gone astray?
Yi tama be? O joa ya pia pe kobiga. Bi siiga yendo n yaadi, o baa tieni lede? Waa baa ha yaa piiyia n peyiadi n sieni bi yankpaakaanu a juana kani ki gedi ki ban lingi yua n yaadi yeni?
13 And if it may come to pass that he finds it, truly I say to you that he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine that have not gone astray;
N waani yi i moamoani, o ya la o kuli, o baa mangi o pali boncianla kelima laa pia po ki cie yaa piiyiadi n peyiadi n ki yaadi yeni.
14 so it is not [the] will in [the] presence of your Father who is in the heavens that one of these little ones may perish.
Li tie yeni leni yi Baa yua n ye tanpoli, waa bua ke a bonwaala na siiga baa yendo n yaadi.
15 And if your brother may sin against you, go and show him his fault between you and him alone, if he may hear you, you gained your brother;
A lielo ya tieni ti tuonbiadi, gedi, fini leni wani yi lie lie, ki waani o o tagili. O ya tuo a tundi, a ga a lielo yeni.
16 and if he may not hear, take with you yet one or two, that by the mouth of two witnesses or three every word may stand.
Ama o yaa tuo a tundi, han taa yendi yaaka niba lie ke mi maama kuli n kadi seedinba lie yaaka seedinba taa yaa ñoabu nni.
17 And if he may not hear them, say [it] to the assembly, and if also the assembly he may not hear, let him be to you as the heathen man and the tax collector.
O ya yie kaa cengi ba mo, han waani Kilisiti n yini yaaba taanli. O ya yie kaa cengi Kilisiti n yini yaaba taanli moko, han yaa nua o nani o nilamo leni o lubigaalo yeni.
18 Truly I say to you, whatever things you may bind on the earth will be having been bound in the heavens, and whatever things you may loose on the earth will be having been loosed in the heavens.
N waani yi i moamoani, yin baa loli handuna nni kuli, li baa loli tanpoli po, yin baa lodi yaala mo handuna nni kuli, li baa lodi tanpoli po.
19 Again, I say to you that if two of you may agree on the earth concerning anything, whatever they may ask—it will be done to them from My Father who is in the heavens,
N go waani yi, i niinni niba lie yaa taani ñoabu ki mia yaala kuli handuna nni. N Baa yua n ye tanpoli baa pa ba la.
20 for where there are two or three gathered together—to My Name, there am I in the midst of them.”
Kelima niba lie bi niba taa yaa taani n yeli nni, n ye bi siiga.
21 Then Peter having come near to Him, said, “Lord, how often will my brother sin against me, and I forgive him—until seven times?”
Lani Pieliden nagini Jesu kani ki yedi o: N Diedo, n lielo ya tudi npo, n baa tieni opo sugili hali taalima ha? Hali taalima lele bi?
22 Jesus says to him, “I do not say to you until seven times, but until seventy times seven.
Jesu den goa ki yedi o: Mii yedi a hali taalima lele ka, ama n yedi a piilele hali taalima lele.
23 Because of this was the kingdom of the heavens likened to a man, a king, who willed to take reckoning with his servants,
Kelima tanpoli diema tie nani ya bado n den bua o naacenba n waani o ban kubi opo ya ligi maama fuuli.
24 and he having begun to take account, there was brought near to him one debtor of a myriad of talents,
Wan den cili ki coadi yua kuli n kpendini yaa ligi, bi den cuani o kani yendo ke o pia li panli ke li tie ligiciami.
25 and he having nothing to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and the children, and all, whatever he had, and payment to be made.
Wan ki den pia liba ki baa pa laa panli yeni, o canba den ban kuadi o, wani o pua leni o bila leni wan pia yaala kuli, ke li panli n gbeni.
26 The servant then, having fallen down, was prostrating to him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay you all;
O naacemo den gbaani o nintuali ki yedi: Canba, juuni npo n baa pa ha likuli.
27 and the lord of that servant having been moved with compassion released him, and the debt he forgave him.
Mi nihima den cuo o canba laa naacemo po ke o puni o sugili o panli kuli po ki cedi wan gedi.
28 And that servant having come forth, found one of his fellow-servants who was owing him one hundred denarii, and having laid hold, he took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that which you owe.
Laa naacemo n den ñani, o den tuogi o lieba siiga yendo yua n den kubi opo kujapiena kobiga. O den bibi o ki cuo o niali ki yedi o: Pa nni n panli.
29 His fellow-servant then, having fallen down at his feet, was calling on him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay you all;
O lielo yedi den gbaani o taana kani ki mia o sugili ki yedi: Juuni npo, n baa pa ha.
30 and he would not, but having gone away, he cast him into prison, until he might pay that which was owing.
Ama waa den bua ki tieni opo sugili o den taa o ki ban kuani o li kadidieli nni hali wan baa pa o panli kuli ki gbeni.
31 And his fellow-servants having seen the things that were done, were grieved exceedingly, and having come, showed fully to their lord all the things that were done;
O lieba n den laa wan tieni yaala kuli, bi pala den biidi boncianla. Bi den gedi ki ban togidi bi canba yaala n tieni kuli.
32 then having called him, his lord says to him, Evil servant! All that debt I forgave you, seeing you called on me;
Lanwani bi canba den yini o naacemo yeni ki yedi o: O naacenbiado na, n den cabi a leni a panli kuli kelima a den mia nni.
33 did it not seem necessary to you to have dealt kindly with your fellow servant, as I also dealt kindly with you?
Laa pundi ke fini mo n gbadi o lielo po mi nihima nani min gbadi apo maama yeni?
34 And having been angry, his lord delivered him to the inquisitors, until he might pay all that was owing to him;
O canba pali den beni boncianla. O den teni o li kadidieli jiidikaaba ban faligi o hali wan pa o panli kuli ki gbeni.
35 so also My heavenly Father will do to you, if you may not forgive each one his brother from your hearts their trespasses.”
Jesu den juodi ki yedi: N Baa yua n ye tanpoli baa soani yi moko yene, yi siiga yua n kaa puni o lielo sugili leni payenli.
