Matthew 17
1 Six days later Jesus took with him Peter and Jamesand his brother John, and led them up a high mountain, by themselves apart.
Tukun len onkosr, Jesus el eisal Peter ac tamulel se, James ac John, ac elos utyak nu fin soko eol fulat, ac elos mukena we.
2 Here he was transfigured before them; his face shone like the sun, and his garments became as white as the light.
Ke elos liye na, Jesus el ekla ye mutaltal: saromrom mutal oana faht uh, ac nuknuk lal arulana fasrfasr pikapakla.
3 And behold! Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Jesus.
Na mwet tumal lutlut tolu ah liyalak Moses ac Elijah sramsram nu sin Jesus.
4 Then Peter said to Jesus. "Master, it is good that we are here! If you are willing I will make here three tents, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."
Na Peter el kasla ac fahk nu sin Jesus, “Leum, arulana wo ke kut muta inge uh! Kom fin lungse, nga ac musaela tolu iwen aktuktuk: sie sum, sie sel Moses, ac sie sel Elijah.”
5 While he was yet speaking, behold! a luminous cloud overshadowed them; and a voice out of the cloud, saying. "This is my Son, my Beloved, in whom is my delight. Listen to him."
Ke el kaskas, sie pukunyeng na saromrom sonolosi, ac sie pusra in pukunyeng uh me fahk, “El inge Wen kulo saok nutik, su nga insewowo kac. Kowos lohngol!”
6 When the disciples heard this, they fell on their faces and were terrified.
Ke mwet tumal lutlut elos lohng pusra sac, elos arulana sangengla, na elos faksufi.
7 But Jesus came to them and touched them, saying, "Rise, have no fear!"
Jesus el tuku nu yorolos ac kahlulosi, ac fahk, “Tuyak, nimet sangeng!”
8 And when they raised their eyes they saw no one save Jesus only.
Na elos ngetak ac wangin mwet elos liye, a Jesus mukena.
9 While they were going down from the mountain, Jesus laid a command on them. "Speak to no man about the vision," he said, "until after the Son of man has been raised from the dead."
Ke elos oatui liki fineol uh, Jesus el sap nu selos, “Nimet fahk nu sin kutena mwet ma su komtal liye inge nwe ke na Wen nutin Mwet el akmoulyeyukyak liki misa.”
10 And his disciples asked him, saying, "Why then do the Scribes say that Elijah must first come?"
Na mwet tumal lutlut elos siyuk sin Jesus, “Efu ku mwet luti Ma Sap elos fahk mu Elijah el ac tuku meet?”
11 And he answered. "Elijah is coming, and will restore all things.
Ac Jesus el fahk, “Pwaye lah Elijah el ac tuku meet, ac el ac fah akoela ma nukewa.
12 "Nay, I say to you that Elijah has come already, and they did not recognize him, but did to him whatever they chose. Even so the Son of man also is about to suffer at their hands."
Tusruktu, nga fahk nu suwos lah Elijah el tuku tari, ac mwet uh tiana akilenul, a elos oru ma na koluk nu sel oana ma elos lungse. Ac elos ac fah oru oapana nu sin Wen nutin Mwet.”
13 Then the disciples divined that he had been speaking to them about John, the Baptist.
Na mwet tumal lutlut elos kalemak lah el kaskas kacl John Baptais.
14 As they reached the crowd, a man came up to Jesus, and fell on his knees before him, saying.
Ke elos folokla nu yurin un mwet uh, oasr sie mukul tuku nu yurin Jesus, su faksufi ye mutal
15 "Master, take pity on my son, for he is an epileptic and sore distressed. Often he falls into the fire and often into the water.
ac fahk, “Leum se, pakomuta wen nutik! El musen pulkoa, ac pacl se ac tuyang nu sel uh arulana upa, oru el kwacna putatyang nu in e uh, ku nu inkof uh.
16 "And I brought him to your disciples, but they could not cure him."
Nga tuh usalu nu yurin mwet tomom lutlut, tuh elos koflana akkeyalla.”
17 In reply Jesus said. "O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I endure you? Bring him here to me!"
Na Jesus el fahk, “Fuka lupan selulalfongi ac sesuwos in orekma lomtal uh! Nga ac muta yurumtal nwe ngac? Nga ac muteng komtal nwe ngac? Use tulik sacn nu yuruk!”
18 Then Jesus rebuked the evil spirit, and it came out of him; and the boy was cured from that very hour.
Jesus el sap ku nu sin demon sac, na el illa liki tulik sac, ac in pacl sacna tulik sac kwela.
19 Thereupon Jesus’ disciples came to him and asked him privately, "Why were we not able to cast it out?"
Na mwet tumal lutlut elos tuku nu yurin Jesus in lukma ac siyuk sel, “Efu kut ku kofla lusla demon sac?”
20 "Because of your little faith," he answered. "In solemn truth I tell you that if you have faith the size of a mustard-seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from this place to that!’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you.
Na Jesus el fahk, “Mweyen srikla lulalfongi lowos. Pwayena nga fahk nu suwos, lulalfongi lowos fin oana luman fiten mustard se, kowos ac ku in fahk nu sin eol soko inge, ‘Fahsrot liki acn se inge nu ingo!’ na ac som. Kowos ac ku in oru kutena ma!” [
21 "But this kind is driven out by prayer alone."
“Tusruktu pre ac lalo mukena pa ku in sisla kain inge; wangin ma saya ku in sisla.”]
22 As they continued going from place to place in Galilee, Jesus said to them. "The Son of man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men;
Ke mwet tumal lutlut nukewa fahsreni nu Galilee, Jesus el fahk nu selos, “Wen nutin Mwet el ac fah itukyang nu inpoun mwet
23 "and they will kill him, but on the third day he will rise again." And they were greatly grieved.
su ac fah unilya, tusruktu tukun len tolu, el fah sifil akmoulyeyukyak.” Mwet tumal lutlut elos arulana asor ke elos lohng ma inge.
24 As they came into Capernaum the collectors of the temple tax came to Peter and asked, "Does not your Teacher pay the temple tax?"
Ke Jesus ac mwet tumal lutlut tuku nu Capernaum, mwet eisani tax lun Tempul elos tuku nu yorol Peter ac siyuk, “Ku mwet luti lom el wi moli tax lun Tempul uh?”
25 "Indeed he does," answered Peter. But on Peter’s entering the house, Jesus forestalled him, saying. "How does it seem to you, Simon? From whom do earthly kings collect customs or taxes-from their own people, or from aliens?"
Ac Peter el fahk, “Aok.” Ke Peter el ilyak nu in lohm uh, Jesus el kasla meet ac fahk, “Simon, mea kom nunku? Su moli tax ac mwe takma saya nu sin tokosra lun faclu? Ya mwet na in acn se, ku mwet sac uh?”
26 And when he replied, "From aliens," Jesus said. "Then their people go free.
Ac Peter el fahk, “Mwet sac uh.” Na Jesus el fahk, “Fin ouingan, kalem lah mwet in acn se ac tia moli.
27 "Nevertheless, that we may not give offense, go to the seaside, throw in your hook; take the first fish that rises, and when you have opened its mouth, you will find a shekel in it. Take it and give it to them for us both."
Tusruktu kut tia lungse aktoasrye mwet inge. Ke ma inge, kom som nu in lulu uh ac sisla soko ah an. Amakunak ik soko ma kom ahsak oemeet an, ac kom ac fah konauk ipin silver se in oalul ma fal in molela tax luk kom uh nu in Tempul uh. Usla ac sang akfalyela.”
