Luke 17
1 [One day Jesus] said to his disciples, “Things that will tempt [people] to sin are certain to happen, but it will be terrible for anyone who causes them to happen!
Yeso magu nanu tarsa umem, ya cukono animetire timumu tiwuzan duru tipiko, senke ushi sa udi eh anice ni uye.
2 Suppose you caused one of these people who [do not believe in me very strongly] to sin. If a huge stone was fastened {someone fastened a huge stone} around your neck and you were thrown {and threw you} into the sea, [you would consider that a severe punishment, but God will punish] you even more severely [if you cause someone to sin!]
Uteki in ka a wuna nipa ni iriri, a soki we a nyimo a niwun, kati ma wu a hana wa rizi.
3 Be careful [how you act]. If you [know about] a fellow believer who sins, you [(sg)] should rebuke him. If he [says that he] is sorry for having sinned [and asks you to forgive him], forgive him.
Hira nice ni weme, inka uhenu uwe me ma chama, gbarka me, inka ma gamirka, kati iriba iweme.
4 Even if he sins against you [(sg)] seven times in one day, if he comes to you each time and says, ‘I am sorry for what I did’, you must continue forgiving him.”
Inka ma chara we iriba kanu sunare, ma kuro kanu sunare, unu guna, ''Maceki'' ya cukumo iriri, kara iriba.
5 [One day] the apostles said to the Lord, “Help us to trust [in you] (OR, [in God]) more strongly!”
Anu tarsa wa gu imme, ''Kinki duru nikara ni tarsa uwe me,''
6 The Lord replied, “Mustard [seeds are very small, but in this area they grow and produce large] [MET] [plants]. [Similarly], if your faith grows until you truly believe that God [will do what you ask him to, you will be able to do anything]. You could [even] say to this mulberry tree, ‘Pull yourself out [with your roots] and plant yourself in the sea!’ and it would obey you!”
Unaa kura magu, ''Inka izinni inlo iriba gu biho bi titi u mastad, idi gu unnutiti, ''Ta rufa,'' a nuka a nyimo ani gwin,'' udi wu imumsa wa buka.
7 [Jesus also said], “Suppose that one of you had a servant who was plowing [your fields] or taking care of your sheep. After he comes into the house from the field, you [(sg)] would not say [RHQ], ‘Sit down and eat immediately!’
Senke aveni a nyimo a shi me, ma zinnu rere in katuma uuu nani itom, madi buki me, inka ka aye usuro anijaa, aye uri, imun are?
8 Instead, you would say to him, ‘Put on your apron and prepare a meal for me! Then serve it to me so that I can eat and drink! Afterwards you [(sg)] can eat and drink.’
Ma nyari me u buka urere me, siram ire imumare tira nitira a tiruma tiwe me, uhem in mari are me. Hu uri inna dumo
9 (You will not thank your servant for doing the work that he had been told {you had told him} to do!/Would you thank your servant because he did the work that he had been told {you had told him} to do?) [RHQ]
Ma gunme u guna urere me tononzo barki ma wuzi imumsa a dungurkame, ma wu?
10 Similarly, when you [(pl)] have done everything that [God] has told you to do, you should say, ‘We [(inc)] are not worthy [of God thanking us] {[being thanked]}. We are only God’s servants. We have only done the things that he told us to do.’”
Shi me cengi, inka ya wuza vat imum udungurka me, idigu, ''Taa bari ba,'' ti wunn imumsa a buka duru.
11 As [Jesus and his disciples] were walking along the road to Jerusalem, they were going through [the region] between Samaria and Galilee [districts].
A biki uganiya a sa maaribe Urshalima, ma ha ubinani usamariya nan uGalilee.
12 As they entered one village, ten lepers came near the road. [Because lepers were not permitted to come near other people], they stood at some distance
Sa maribe a nyimo anigiro, monno ma gurna nan are anu ukirau a kuturu. Wa tonno piit.
13 and called out, “Jesus, Master, pity us [and heal us]!”
Wa yeze a mgmirang wa gu, ''Kunna ngogoni uru, Yeso.''
14 When he saw them, he said [to them], “Each of you should go and show yourself to a priest [in Jerusalem so that he can see if you are healed].” As they were going [there], they were healed.
Sa ma iri we ma gu in we, hana ni ika bezi unu inusa tizeta sere.
15 Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God loudly.
Unu inde a nyimo a we me sa ma huma, ma gamirka innu gmirang ni dandang innu honzo Asere.
16 He [came to Jesus], prostrated himself at Jesus’ feet, and thanked him. This man was a Samaritan, [not a Jew].
Maa tunguno a tibuna ti Yeso, inna puru arom, uSamariyawa mani.
17 Then Jesus said, “[I] healed ten [lepers] (I am disappointed that the other nine did not come back!/Where are the other nine?) [RHQ]
Yeso ma gu, ''In gusa ani kirau wani wa huma? anu uuro wa ra?
18 I am disappointed [RHQ] that this non-Jewish man was the only one who returned to thank God; none of the others came back to me!”
Daki akan uyesamakuri wa nonzo Asere ba Senki ugenu ugeme?
19 Then he said to the man, “Get up and continue on your journey. [God] [PRS] [has saved you and] healed you [(sg)] because you trusted [in me].”
Ma gu imme, Hira u dusa! Kadura kawu me ya wuna wa hum.''
20 [One day] Jesus was asked by [some] Pharisees [SYN] {[some] Pharisees [SYN] asked [Jesus]}, “When is God [going] to rule as king?” He replied, “God’s ruling [MET] is not something people will be able to see with their eyes.
Sa anu ubazi urusa wa iki, rono u aye Asere Yeso ma kabirka we magu,'' A kura Asere ada aye barki ugamara a nu ba.
21 And people will not be able to say, ‘Look! He is [ruling] here!’ Or ‘He is [ruling] over there!’ because, [contrary to what you think], God’s ruling is people’s inner beings (OR, is already happening among you).”
Nani wadi gu, ira, iyenne! nani, ira a birko, Akura Asere a raa anyimo a shime.
22 [Jesus] said to his disciples, “There will be a time when you will want to see [me] [MTY], the one who came from heaven, [ruling powerfully]. But you will not see that.
Ma gu inna nu atarsa umeme, tiye ti eze sa idi inki iriba u ira u vanna sere, idi kaa ira me ba.
23 [Some] people will say to you, ‘Look, [the Messiah] is over there!’ or [they will say] ‘Look, he is here!’ When they say that, do not believe them. Do not follow them [to go see the Messiah].
Wadi gu inshi, ira, a birko, ira, a banna, kati isuri a matara nani itar si we ba;
24 Because when the lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one side to the other, [everyone can see it. Similarly] [SIM], at the time [MTY] when [I], the one who came from heaven, come back again, [everyone will see me].
Gu u wuna a hira mel-mel a hira a zesere uhana are me, a nine ani vana Asere madi zo rono uwui umeme.
25 But before that happens, I must suffer in many ways (OR, very much). And I will be rejected by people {people will reject me}, [even though] they [have observed me doing good for people].
Senke utuba me madi zitti atinaa sasas ani wadi nyari me.
26 But when [I], the one who came from heaven, [come again, people] will be doing things just like people were doing at the time when [MTY] Noah [lived].
U ganiya ugeme, gu a tiye ti Nuhu anime ani atiye ti vana unubu.
27 [At that time] people ate and drank [as usual], and they got married [as usual], up until the day when Noah [and his family] entered the big boat. But then the flood came and destroyed all those [who were not in the boat].
Waari, iva sizi, wa wuzi anya, a nyizi we anya senke rono sa Nuhu ma ribo a nyimo u zirgi, urigawa ma eh mahuu wevat.
28 Similarly, when Lot lived [in Sodom city], people [there] ate and drank [as usual]. They bought things and they sold things. They planted [crops] and they built [houses as usual].
A nime ani ya kem ani atiyet Lot, wa zin tire, ukpija nan nu ziga, tibira nan asoh.
29 But on the day that Lot [and his family] left Sodom, fire and [burning] sulfur came down from the sky and destroyed all those [who stayed in the city].
Senke rono sa Lot ma suri a nyimo u Sodom, a rubi ure ura a zesere wa huu we vat.
30 Similarly, when [I], the one who came from heaven, return to earth, [people will be unprepared] (OR, [enjoying normal life]).
A ne ani idi zi rono u aye uvana unu.
31 On that day, those who are outside their houses, with all the things that they own inside [the houses], must not go [in] to take them away, [because there will not be enough time to do that]. Similarly, those who are working in a field must not go back home [to get anything]; [they must flee immediately].
A nyimo rono me, katli iceki unu sa ma raa azesure a kura matuu uzika tirannga a kura ba, kati a ceki unu uge sa mara a masa a makuriba.
32 Remember Lot’s wife! [Because she turned back and wanted to get some of her things from Sodom, she died immediately and became a pillar of salt].
Ringin une u Lot.
33 Anyone who wants to hold onto his life [and his possessions] will not [receive eternal] life. But anyone who is [willing to] die [for my sake] will live [eternally].
Unu uge sa ma zinnu nyara wai imeme madi diri ini senke unu uge sa madira ivai imeme madi kem ini.
34 I tell you this: On the night [when I return], there will be two people [sleeping] in one bed. The one [who believes in me] will be taken {[God] will take the one [who believes in me]} [to heaven], and the other one will be left [behind and punished] {and [he] will leave the other one [behind and punish him]}.
Ma buka shi, aniye nigeme adikem ana ware warari ukomi, inde aziki unu inde a ceki unu inde.
35 Two women will be grinding grain together; one will be taken and the other left {[God] will take one and leave the other} [behind].”
A di kem ane ware iti nanzu, a ziki unu inde a seki unu inde.
Anu war a uruu, adi ziki unu inde a ceki unu inde.
37 [His disciples] said to him, “Lord, where [will this happen]?” He replied to them, “Wherever there is an animal carcass, the vultures will gather [to eat it] [MET]. [Similarly, wherever there are people who are spiritually dead, God will punish them].”
Wa iki me, abba una kura? ma gu in we, a hira sa ikizi irani magbuluk cangi wadi ornon.
