Matthew 11
1 And it happened that when Jesus had finished instructing his twelve disciples, he departed from there to teach and preach in their cities.
Jesu n gbeni o tunda yeni o ŋuankaaba, ko puodi ya longbanbimu sien ki tugni ki muandi U Tienu maama.
2 Now when John heard in prison the works of the Christ, he sent his disciples
San bo ye o dansaldiegun ki gbia ya tuoŋana bo tie kuli, k o sɔni o ŋuankaaba k bi bual o:
3 and said to him, "Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?"
fin n tie yua k ti guu bii ti gɔ da ba guu tian i.
4 And Jesus answered them, "Go and tell John the things which you hear and see:
Jesu ŋmiani: ya ca mani ki ban waani San yin la yaali yeni yin gbadi yaali:
5 the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.
bi juanbi nuni guani ki nuali, i wabbmu fii ki cuoni, a gbada nugi tandi, a tubkpaana cili ki gbia, k bi tikpiib fii t kuldn ki talgnba gbia li laabaamanli.
6 And blessed is he who is not offended by me."
Li pamanli yabi yaabi n duu n po k bi dindanli cie.
7 And as these went their way, Jesus began to say to the crowds concerning John, "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
Ban paani ki ca k jesu cili ki ji maadi San po o niwuligun nni, i gedi ki diidi bee i tinkuongn nn i? li galgunli yua ko faagu migni i?
8 But what did you go out to see? A man in soft clothing? Look, those who wear soft things are in kings' houses.
ama i gedi ki ban la ŋmaa i? ya nilo ŋanbi ki lani k li ŋan nni? diidi mani yaabi n la ti tiaŋandi tie yabi n kua bad diegu.
9 But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.
I ji gedi ki ban la bee? U Tienu tondo o? n, i bi jiin n, o cie U Tienu tondo.
10 This is the one of whom it is written, 'Look, I send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.'
Kilima li tie yua k li bo diani ki maadi: diidi mani, n bi sɔni n tondo k wan bobni i sɔni ki guudi a cuama.
11 Truly I tell you, among those who are born of women there has not arisen anyone greater than John the Baptist; yet he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
Yeni i mɔni n mkaadi, bi puobi madn kuli, ti da ki la San ya lielo, li tie yeni ti Diedo diema nni i big n tie ciamo k cie bi kuli.
12 And from the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and the violent are taking it by force.
Lan cili San yognu ki pan pundi hali mɔlane, ti Diedo diema ti mi tuami, ki bi gbanmandanbi kɔni bi ŋmiali nni.
13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.
Kilima bi tondikaabi yeni ti yikod kadaagu bo maadi U Tienu maami yo, k San fidi ki yuandi cua.
14 And if you are willing to receive it, this is Elijah, who is to come.
Ki ya bua yin gbadi niimn ni, ban yi yua Elin bo bi cua.
15 He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
Ki yua pia ti tubdi ki ba gbadi, wan gbadi.
16 "But to what should I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces, who call to their companions
Ki mɔlane nibi ne, bi naani yeni bi lee? ya bila n kaa bi niba n paa ki tigli naani, k sieni, ki yi bi lieba,
17 and say, 'We played the flute for you, and you did not dance. We wailed in mourning, and you did not mourn.'
ki maadi: ti piebi i naagbaamu (i yelmu), ama i ki jeli (ŋɔni ciagi), k ti yini i kuuyani, i ki mɔni kumɔni (ku bubuuli).
18 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, 'He has a demon.'
Ki dugni, San cua k ki di, k ki ñu (ki lolgi o ñɔbu), k bi yedi ki cicibiadmu ŋuagu.
19 The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, 'Look, a gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.' But wisdom is justified by her children."
Ki nufosaali bijua cua ki di, ki ñu, ki bi yedi k o puoli mani ki kandi, ka tie dañuuli, k tie lonpogaala yeni bi bid danbi dɔnli. Ama mi yanfuomi waani o tuona nni yaali ntie bonmɔnli.
20 Then he began to denounce the cities in which most of his mighty works had been done, because they did not repent.
Li yognu k Jesu cili ki ji fu yeni ya nibi k bi dogin k bi tieni ti paldi boncianli, k bi tɔgu nan ki lebdi.
21 "Woe to you, Chorazin. Woe to you, Bethsaida. For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
Yubonli a po, koransen! yubonli a po betesayida! ki dugni ya yaalidgu bona tieni i siigni ya bo tieni Tiir yeni Sodɔm, hali daal o mani bi tugi o kpalpiagu yeni mi fantanpiema ki tuuba o.
22 But I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you.
Li ya po i k n maadi: daa jijuog buud daali, Tiir yeni Sodɔm b la sugli ki cie yi i.
23 And you, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, you will be brought down to hell. For if the mighty works had been done in Sodom which were done in you, it would have remained until this day. (Hadēs g86)
Fin, Kafarnawuum, a mali k fin yeni a yabnu kuli a ba si tawlgbɔngu i? N n, a ba jiidi hali o tinkpiigun, ki dugni ya yaalidgu bona tieni a siigni k a k lebdi ne ya bo tieni Sodɔm i, mani o da sieni ki ye dinla daali. (Hadēs g86)
24 But I tell you that it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom, on the day of judgment, than for you."
Li po n cedi k n maadi, k daa jijuogi daali sodɔm buud baa suu yen ni.
25 At that time, Jesus answered, "I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you hid these things from the wise and intelligent, and revealed them to little children.
Li yognu k Jesu gaa mi maama ki maadi: n dond a, ti Diedo, poli yeni tinga canbaa ́, yeni ŋan wuoni bi yanfuodanbi yeni bi nunfandanbi ya bona ki nan tugi lani ki waani a bila.
26 Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight.
N, n Baá, n dond a yeni ŋan bua ki lan ya tie yeni.
27 All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows the Son, except the Father; neither does anyone know the Father, except the Son, and he to whom the Son desires to reveal him.
N Baá ten nni u paalu bonli kuli po, k nul k bani bijua, li ya ki tie Baá yaa ka, k nul ki bani Baá li ya ki tie o bijua yaa ka yeni yua k o bijua waani o
28 "Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest.
Cua mani n kani, yinbi yaabi n cɔgi, ki tugi k li kpiagi, k min teni mi fuoma.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls.
Tugi man n fala ki cengi m maami, ki dugni n tie pasiadaani ki gɔ jiind nba, ki bi la i nalimi fuoma.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."
Ki dugni, n tugli yua k ki kpiagi.
