< Mark 10 >
1 He arose from there and came into the borders of Judea and beyond the Jordan. Crowds came together to him again. As he usually did, he was again teaching them.
Yesu kple eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo dzo le Kapernaum, eye woyi anyigbeme lɔƒo le Yudea nutowo me kple nuto si le Yɔdan ƒe ɣedzeƒe lɔƒo la me. Abe ale si wònɔna ɖaa ene la, amehawo va ƒo zi ɖe Yesu ŋu, eye wòfia nu wo abe ale si wòwɔnɛ ene.
2 Pharisees came to him testing him, and asked him, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?"
Farisitɔ aɖewo va egbɔ le afi sia be yewoadoe kpɔ ne yewoalée le nya aɖe me. Wobiae be, “Woɖe mɔ na ŋutsu be wòagbe srɔ̃a?”
3 He answered, "What did Moses command you?"
Yesu trɔ bia wo be, “Aleke Mose gblɔ tso srɔ̃gbegbe ŋuti?”
4 They said, "Moses allowed a certificate of divorce to be written, and to divorce her."
Ameawo ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Mose ɖe mɔ be srɔ̃ŋutsu naŋlɔ agbalẽ na srɔ̃nyɔnu be yegbee.”
5 But Jesus said to them, "Because of your hardness of heart, he wrote you this commandment.
Yesu ɖo eŋu be, “Miaƒe dzimesesẽ tae Mose de se sia na mi ɖo.
6 But from the beginning of the creation, he made them male and female.
Ke tso nuwɔwɔ ƒe gɔmedzedze me ke la, Mawu wɔ ŋutsu kple nyɔnu.
7 For this cause a man will leave his father and mother, and will join to his wife,
Le esia ta ŋutsu agble fofoa kple dadaa ɖi, eye wòalé ɖe srɔ̃nyɔnu la ŋuti
8 and the two will become one flesh, so that they are no longer two, but one flesh.
eye wo kple eve la woazu ŋutilã ɖeka. Eya ta womeganye ame eve o, ke boŋ wozu ɖeka.
9 What therefore God has joined together, let no one separate."
Esia ta nu si ke Mawu bla la, ame aɖeke megama eme o.”
10 In the house, the disciples asked him again about the same matter.
Le esia megbe la, esi Yesu kple eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo ɖeɖe wonɔ aƒe me la, nusrɔ̃lawo gado srɔ̃gbenya la ɖa.
11 He said to them, "Whoever divorces his wife, and marries another, commits adultery against her.
Yesu gblɔ na wo be, “Nenye be ŋutsu aɖe gbe srɔ̃a be yeaɖe bubu la, ewɔ ahasi ɖe nyɔnu la ŋu.
12 If she herself divorces her husband, and marries another, she commits adultery."
Nenema ke ne nyɔnu aɖe hã gbe srɔ̃a, eye wòɖaɖe ŋutsu bubu la, eya hã wɔ ahasi.”
13 They were bringing to him little children, that he should touch them, but the disciples rebuked them.
Gbe ɖeka la, ame aɖewo kplɔ wo viwo va Yesu gbɔ be wòayra wo. Ke nusrɔ̃lawo nya wo be womegaɖe fu na Aƒetɔ la o.
14 But when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation, and said to them, "Allow the little children to come to me. Do not forbid them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
Yesu kpɔ nu si nusrɔ̃lawo wɔ la, medzɔ dzi nɛ kura o. Egblɔ na nusrɔ̃lawo be, “Mina ɖeviwo nava gbɔnye, eye migaxe mɔ na wo o, elabena ame siawo ƒomevi tɔe nye mawufiaɖuƒe la!
15 Truly I tell you, whoever will not receive the Kingdom of God like a little child, he will in no way enter into it."
Le nyateƒe me, mele gblɔm na mi be ame si maxɔ mawufiaɖuƒe la abe ɖevi sue ene o la mage ɖe eme gbeɖe o.”
16 And he took them in his arms, laying his hands on them, and blessed them.
Azɔ exɔ ɖeviawo ɖe eƒe abɔwo dome, eye wòda asi ɖe wo dzi heyra wo.
17 As he was going out into the way, one ran to him, knelt before him, and asked him, "Good Teacher, what must I do that I may inherit everlasting life?" (aiōnios )
Esi Yesu kple eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo dzra ɖo vɔ be yewoayi teƒe aɖe la, ɖekakpui aɖe ƒu du va dze klo ɖe eƒe akɔme, eye wòbiae be, “Nufiala nyui, nu ka tututu wòle be mawɔ hafi ate ŋu anyi agbe mavɔ dome?” (aiōnios )
18 Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good except one—God.
Yesu biae be, “Nu ka ta nèyɔm be ame nyui ɖo? Ame aɖeke menyo o, negbe Mawu ɖeka ko.
19 You know the commandments: 'Do not commit adultery,' 'Do not murder,' 'Do not steal,' 'Do not give false testimony,' 'Do not defraud,' 'Honor your father and mother.'"
Azɔ le wò biabia la ŋuti la, ènya seawo xoxo. Woawoe nye: mègawu ame o, mègawɔ ahasi o, mègafi fi o, mègada alakpa o, mègaba ame o, bu fofowò kple dawò.”
20 And he said to him, "Teacher, I have kept all these things from my youth."
Ɖekakpui la gblɔ na Yesu be, “Nufiala, mewɔ se siawo katã dzi tso nye ɖevime ke.”
21 Jesus looking at him loved him, and said to him, "One thing you lack. Go, sell whatever you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me, taking up the cross."
Yesu kpɔe dũ eye wòlɔ̃e, gblɔ nɛ be, “Nu vevi ɖeka susɔ si mèwɔ o. Yi nàdzra wò nuwo katã, eye nàtsɔ ga la ana ame dahewo bena kesinɔnuwo nanɔ asiwò le dziƒo. Le esia megbe la, va, nàdze yonyeme.”
22 But his face fell at that saying, and he went away sorrowful, for he was one who had great possessions.
Ɖekakpui la yrɔ esi wòse nya siawo; eƒe mo trɔ zi ɖeka eye wòdzo nublanuitɔe, elabena enye kesinɔtɔ gã aɖe.
23 Jesus looked around, and said to his disciples, "How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter into the Kingdom of God."
Esi wòdzo yina la, Yesu kpɔ eyome dũu eye wòtrɔ ɖe eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo ŋu gblɔ na wo be, “Asesẽ na kesinɔtɔwo ŋutɔ hafi woage ɖe mawufiaɖuƒe la me!”
24 The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus answered again and said to them, "Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God.
Nya siawo wɔ nuku na nusrɔ̃lawo ŋutɔ. Yesu gagblɔ be, “Vinyewo, asesẽ na ame siwo ɖoa ŋu ɖe woƒe kesinɔnuwo ŋu be woayi ɖe mawufiaɖuƒe la me!
25 It is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye than for a rich person to enter into the Kingdom of God."
Le nyateƒe me la, anɔ bɔbɔe na kposɔ be wòato tɔnui ƒe do me ado go tsɔ wu be kesinɔtɔ nage ɖe mawufiaɖuƒe la me.”
26 They were exceedingly astonished, saying to him, "Then who can be saved?"
Nya siawo gawɔ nuku na nusrɔ̃lawo ŋutɔ. Ale wobiae be, “Ame kae akpɔ ɖeɖe?”
27 Jesus, looking at them, said, "With humans it is impossible, but not with God, for all things are possible with God."
Yesu kpɔ wo dũu, eye wògblɔ na wo be, “Esia sesẽ na amegbetɔwo, gake ele bɔbɔe na Mawu ya, elabena naneke mesesẽ na Mawu o.”
28 Peter began to tell him, "Look, we have left everything, and have followed you."
Petro gblɔ na Yesu be, “Míegblẽ nu sia nu ɖi hedze yowòme.”
29 Jesus said, "Truly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or brothers, or sisters, or mother, or father, or children, or land, for my sake, and for the sake of the gospel,
Yesu gblɔ na wo be, “Nyateƒe gblɔm mele na mi be ame siwo katã gblẽ woƒe aƒewo, nɔviŋutsuwo kple nɔvinyɔnuwo, fofowo kple dadawo, viwo kple anyigbawo katã ɖi le lɔlɔ̃ si wotsɔ nam ta, eye be yewoakaka mawunya ta la,
30 but he will receive one hundred times more now in this time, houses, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and land, with persecutions; and in the age to come, everlasting life. (aiōn , aiōnios )
woakpɔ woƒe aƒewo, nɔviŋutsuwo, nɔvinyɔnuwo, fofowo kple dadawo, viwo kple anyigbawo katã ɖe eteƒe zi geɖe kple yometiti le agbe sia me. Gake le agbe si gbɔna me la, woakpɔ agbe mavɔ. (aiōn , aiōnios )
31 But many who are first will be last; and the last first."
Ke ame siwo nye gbãtɔwo la, woazu mamlɛtɔwo eye ame siwo nye mamlɛtɔwo la woazu gbãtɔwo.”
32 They were on the way, going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was going in front of them, and they were amazed; and those who followed were afraid. He again took the twelve, and began to tell them the things that were going to happen to him.
Esi wodze mɔ yina Yerusalem la, Yesu do ŋgɔ na eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo. Nusrɔ̃lawo ƒe mo wɔ yaa, eye vɔvɔ̃ ɖo ame siwo hã nɔ eyome. Yesu yɔ eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo ɖe kpɔe, eye wògagblɔ nu siwo katã ava dzɔ ɖe edzi ne woɖo Yerusalem la na wo:
33 "Look, we are going up to Jerusalem. The Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and the scribes. They will condemn him to death, and will deliver him to foreigners.
Egblɔ na wo be, “Ne míeɖo afi ma la, woalé Amegbetɔ Vi la akplɔ ayi na nunɔlagãwo kple agbalẽfialawo. Ame siawo atso kufia nɛ, akplɔe ade asi na ame siwo menye Yudatɔwo o la be woawu.
34 They will mock him, spit on him, scourge him, and kill him. After three days he will rise again."
Woaɖu fewu le eŋu vevie, aɖe ta ɖe eŋu vlodotɔe, aƒoe kple atam eye woawui, gake le ŋkeke etɔ̃a gbe la, atsi tsitre tso ame kukuwo dome.”
35 James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came near to him, and said to him, "Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we will ask."
Azɔ Yakobo kple Yohanes, Zebedeo ƒe viwo va egbɔ, va do dalĩ nɛ be, “Aƒetɔ, míedi be nàwɔ nane na mí.”
36 He said to them, "What do you want me to do for you?"
Yesu bia wo be, “Nu ka dim miele?”
37 They said to him, "Grant to us that we may sit, one at your right hand, and one at your left hand, in your glory."
Woɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Míedi be míanɔ wò nuɖusime kple wò miame le wò fiaɖuƒe la me. Ame ɖeka nanɔ wò ɖusime eye ame evelia nanɔ wò miame.”
38 But Jesus said to them, "You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, or to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?"
Yesu ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Mienya nu si biam miele o. Miate ŋu ano nu tso fukpekpe ƒe kplu veve si no ge mala la me, eye miate ŋu anɔ te ɖe fukpekpe ƒe tsideta si de ge wole ta nam la hã nua?”
39 And they said to him, "We are able." And Jesus said to them, "You will drink the cup I drink, and you will be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with;
Woɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Ɛ̃, míate ŋui.” Yesu gblɔ na wo be, “Anɔ eme be miate ŋu ano nu tso kplu veve si me mele nu no ge le la me, eye miate ŋu axɔ tsideta veve si xɔ ge mala,
40 but to sit at my right hand and at my left hand is not mine to give, but for whom it has been prepared."
gake ŋusẽ mele asinye be maɖo mi zikpuiwo dzi le nye nuɖusime kple nye miame o, elabena wodzra wo ɖo ɖi na ame siwo wotia da ɖi la ko.”
41 When the ten heard it, they began to be indignant towards James and John.
Nusrɔ̃la ewo mamlɛawo se nya si Yakobo kple Yohanes ɖabia Yesu, ale wodo dɔmedzoe ɖe wo ŋu vevie.
42 Jesus summoned them, and said to them, "You know that they who are recognized as rulers over the nations lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.
Le esia ta Yesu yɔ wo va eɖokui gbɔe hegblɔ na wo be, “Abe ale si mienya ene la, dukɔwo ƒe kplɔlawo ɖua aƒetɔ ɖe wo dzi, eye woƒe amegãwo kpɔa ŋusẽ ɖe wo dzi,
43 But it will not be so among you, but whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant.
gake meganɔ nenema le miawo ya dome o. Ame si di be yeanye amegã le mia dome la, ele nɛ be wòanye mi katã ƒe subɔla,
44 And whoever wants to be first among you must be slave of all.
eye ame si di be yeanye amewo katã ƒe tatɔ la, ele nɛ be wòanye woƒe kluvi,
45 For the Son of Man also did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."

46 They came to Jericho. As he went out from Jericho, with his disciples and a large crowd, Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the road.
Azɔ wova ɖo Yeriko. Emegbe la, esi woto dua me yina la, amewo nye zi bibibi kplɔ wo ɖo. Ŋkunɔ nubiala aɖe si ŋkɔe nye Bartimeo (Timeo ƒe vi la), nɔ anyi ɖe mɔto.
47 When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, and say, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me."
Esi Bartimeo se be Yesu Nazaretitɔ la va yina la, edo ɣli sesĩe be, “Yesu David ƒe Vi, kpɔ nublanui nam!”
48 Many rebuked him, that he should be quiet, but he shouted all the louder, "Son of David, have mercy on me."
Ame siwo kplɔ Yesu ɖo la dometɔ aɖewo blu ɖe eta sesĩe be, “Ɖo to kaba!” Gake egado ɣli sesĩe wu tsã be, “Ao, David ƒe Vi, kpɔ nublanui nam.”
49 Jesus stood still, and said, "Call him." They called the blind man, saying to him, "Cheer up. Get up. He is calling you."
Esi Yesu se eŋkɔ la, etɔ ɖe mɔƒoa me hegblɔ be, “Migblɔ nɛ be neva.” Ale wogblɔ nɛ be, “Wò dzi nedze eme. Yesu le yɔwòm, tso va.”
50 He, casting away his coat, jumped up, and came to Jesus.
Eɖe eƒe awu ƒu gbe, eye wòɖe abla dzidzɔtɔe va do ɖe Yesu gbɔ.
51 Jesus asked him, "What do you want me to do for you?" The blind man said to him, "Rabboni, that I may see again."
Yesu biae be, “Nu ka nèdi be mawɔ na ye?” Ŋkuagbãtɔ la ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Nufiala, medi be makpɔ nu.”
52 Jesus said to him, "Go your way. Your faith has made you well." And immediately he received his sight, and followed him on the road.
Yesu gblɔ nɛ be, “Enyo, ava eme na wò. Wò xɔse da gbe le ŋuwò.” Ŋkunɔ la ƒe ŋkuwo ʋu enumake, eye wòde asi nukpɔkpɔ me. Ale wòdze Yesu yome kple dzidzɔ manyagblɔ aɖe.
