Matthew 4
1 Then, Jesus was led up into the wilderness, by the Spirit, to be tempted by the adversary;
Nikiyi Ibrji ka nji Yesu hi ni kpatren miyi ni ndu shetan tsrawu.
2 and, fasting forty days and forty nights, —afterwards, he hungered.
U wa Yesu a vu nyu ivi ni cu ise zia u yon katiewu.
3 And, coming near, the tempter said to him, —If thou art God’s, Son, speak! that, these stones, may become, loaves.
U wa ani tsar-a aye nda tre, uti ivren Rji uka hla tita biya ndu mba katie bredi.
4 But, he, answering, said, It is written, —Not on bread alone, shall man live, but on every declaration coming forth through the mouth of God.
U akasa niwu din Ba nha ana ni birli megyen mba ani ndu ndi son sisren na.
5 Then, the adversary taketh him with him, unto the holy city, —and he set him upon the pinnacle of the temple;
U shetan nji wu hi ni mi Urushalima igbu u tsartsar-nda njiwu hon hi ni ngbondo tu tra u Baci.
6 and saith to him—If thou art God’s, Son, cast thyself down, —for it is written, To his messengers, will he give charge concerning thee; and, on hands, will they bear thee up, lest once thou strike, against a stone, thy foot.
A hla ni wu uta hi vren Rji uka grji joko kime: e ba nha di ani ton malaikuma ye wu ndu ba kon wu kpa ni wo mba ni ndu na k'bu za ni tita na.
7 Jesus said to him, Again, it is written, —Thou shalt not put to the test, the Lord thy God.
Yesu a saa' wu ba nha una tsra Baci Eji me to na.
8 Again, the adversary taketh him with him, into an exceeding high mountain, —and pointeth out to him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory;
Garli shetan a jinwu hon hi ni tu ngbondo ngblu ri nda tsro wu ikpi bi ngbugblu ba wawuu ni bii mba.
9 and said to him, All these things, will I give thee, —if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
A hla wu ikpi biyi wawu mbawu mi nno mba ka uti kukru ndi gbyre me san.
10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Withdraw, Satan! for it is written, —The Lord thy God, shalt thou worship, and, to him alone, render divine service.
Niki Yesu saa' wu dinkon wa iwu shetan ba nha u gbyre Baci Rji me san wawu yi ni nklen ma u gbyre u san.
11 Then, the adversary leaveth him, —and lo! messengers came near, and began ministering unto him.
Nikiyi shetan ka hi kpama; malaiku baka ye zou.
12 And, hearing that, John, had been delivered up, he retired into Galilee;
Ba heme u Yesu awo din ba tro Yohana ni Galili,
13 and, forsaking Nazareth, he came and fixed his dwelling in Capernaum, which was by the lake, —within the bounds of Zebulun and Naphtali:
A wlu ni Nazarat nda hini mi Kafanahum, u nyu kiekle nne'a ni mi koton Zabulu mba Naftalim:
14 that it might be fulfilled, which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying:
Din ndu tre anabi Ishaya ku toar, towa.
15 Land of Zebulun, and land of Naphtali, the lake-way across the Jordan, —Galilee of the nations,
Meme Zabulun mba meme Naftalim ni nkon kiekle nne vu y'ba hi ni kogran urdu mba Galili u indi wa bana Yahudawa naa.
16 The people that was sitting in darkness, a great light, beheld, —and, on them who were sitting in land and shade of death, Light rose on them.
Indi bi wa ba zia ki ni' bwu'a Ba to' kickle kpan, u' bi wa ba zia son ni mi qu mba ni mi yumu'a Ikpan wlu ye mba wu.
17 From that time, began Jesus to be making proclamation, and saying, —Repent ye, for the kingdom of the heavens hath drawn near.
Rji ni nton kima Yesu a wlu zi wa tre Baci di ka me'me' cuwo: mulki shulu a tiewiere.
18 And, walking round beside the sea of Galilee, he saw two brethren—Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, —casting a large fishing-net into the sea, for they were fishers;
Yesu si zren ni nyu kiekle nne Galili, a to ndi harli bari ba mrli vayi siman wa bata you ndi Bitru, u Andoro vayima bana bi vu lambe nda si sru rjiji u vu lambe ba.
19 and he saith unto them, Come after me, —and I will make you fishers, of men.
A tre ni ba hume yi ume mi kayi tie bi vu ndi.
20 And, they, straightway, leaving the nets, followed him.
Nikime ba kaa rjirji u vu lambe ba don nda huu.
21 And, going forward from thence, he saw other two brethren—James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother—in the boat with Zebedee their father, putting in order their nets, —and he called them.
A wlu niki sihi nda ka to indi harli wa ba mrli vayi, Yakubu ivren Zabadi mba Yohana vayi ma; nimi jirgi bi nha ni tie mba Zabadi ba ki mla rjirji u vu lambe mba tie nda yo ba.
22 And, they, straightway, leaving the boat and their father, followed him.
Ba ka jirgi'a don ni tie mba nda tie gbla hu.
23 And Jesus was going round throughout all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and proclaiming the glad-message of the kingdom, —and curing every disease, and every infirmity, among the people.
Yesu a zren kagon Galili wawuu nda zi tsro ni tra Rji nda bla tre zizi u mulki nda den bi lilo wawuu ni san lilo wa ndi ba ba' lo'a.
24 And forth went the report of him into all Syria; and they brought unto him all who were sick, with divers diseases and tortures, distressed, demonized and lunatic and paralyzed, —and he cured them.
Iddu ma ka shanshu ni suriya wawuui baka rji bi lilo wawuu ye wu ndi bi wa ba lo'a ko bi lilo rimie, ni bi wa ba ku gbingbi ni bi wa ba he ni meme brji'a ni bi sran ni bi wa ba qu kpa-a waka den ba wawuu.
25 And there followed him large multitudes—from Galilee, and Decapolis, and Jerusalem, and Judaea, and across the Jordan.
Gbugbu ndi ba huu rji ni Galili ni Dakapolis ni Urushalima ni Yahudiya ni kogmn urdu.
