Matthew 10
1 He told [us] twelve disciples to come to him. Then he gave us the power/authority to expel evil spirits [that controlled people]. He also enabled [us] to heal all people who had diseases or who were sick.
Barki titi anu tarsa umeme u kirau in nana ware, ma nyawe ni kara nu suzo agberdene abit. Wa hummu zan inti koni sasas.
2 [Here is a list of us] twelve [disciples whom he called] apostles ([which means ‘messengers’]): Simon, [to whom he gave the new name] Peter; Andrew, Peter’s [younger] brother; James, the son of Zebedee; John, the [younger] brother of James;
A na kadura ukirau na na wera tiza tiye, unu tuba saminu desa atissame bitrus nan nu henu me Andrawus, a yakubu vanu Zabadi, nan nu henu me yahaya.
3 Philip; Bartholomew; Thomas; me, Matthew, the tax collector; James, the [son] of Alpheus; Thaddeus;
A filibus, nan Bartamawus, nan Toma, a matiyu unu kabsa ikirfi, nan yakubu vanu Halfa, nan yahuza.
4 Simon, a member of the party [that wanted to overthrow the Roman government; ] and Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]), who [later] enabled [the Jewish leaders] to seize Jesus.
A saminu bakani ane, nan yahuda isikarayoti desa ma nya yeso atanri tana madini.
5 When Jesus was [about to] send [us] twelve [apostles to tell his message to people in various places], he gave [us] these instructions: “Do not go where the non-Jews live [MTY] or into the towns [where the] Samaritans live, [because they hate you].
We ukirau inna na ware yeso matu mi we, mabuku we, magu, “Kati irebe a ma nyarga manu tame tize ta Asere nani ani ain ni masamariyawa.
6 Instead, go to the people of Israel [SYN] who have [gone away from God like] sheep that have gotten lost [MET].
Senke iha ahira itam anu isaraila.
7 When you go [to them], proclaim to them that God [EUP/MTY] will soon begin to rule over people.
I zin tanu in tize turunta, innugussa ti gomo taere ta aye mamu.
8 Heal sick people, cause dead people to become alive, heal people who have leprosy, and cause demons to leave people [who are controlled by them] {[whom demons control]}. Do not charge money [for helping people, because God] did not charge you anything [for helping you].
Humu zzni inna nu zatu nuhuma, i hirza anu wijo, i vissi makuturu, i suzo agbergene. Kasi gussi sa ya kem anime, anime ani idi nyin zi.
9 Do not take any money with you [MTY], nor a knapsack. Do not take an extra shirt, nor sandals [in addition to what you are wearing], nor a walking stick. Every worker deserves to get pay [from the people for whom he works], [so you deserve to receive food and a place to stay from the people to whom you go].
Kati i inta ikirfi ya zumo a wal-wal, ba nani a zumo alau, nani azumo abit, u cira ushime.
Kati iziki u badau atanu tishime, nani turunga kare, nani akwatak nan nu bina, yawuna uri unu ma ri anyimo akatuma kame.
11 In whatever town or village you enter, find out which person is worthy [that you should stay in his home]. And as you go into that house, [ask God to] bless the people [who live there] [MTY]. Stay in that home until you leave [that town or village].
Vat nipinme sa ya ribe, i nyari unu u tep i wuzi ni gen ni shine ni u shi.
Inki idi ribe akurame i gu ga aja u shi.
13 If the people who live in [MTY] that house are worthy [of being blessed] {[God blessing them]}, [God] will bless them. If the people who live in that house are not worthy [of being blessed] {[of God blessing them]}, [God] will bless you [instead of blessing them].
Inki akura ahuma ani, wadi kabi ni issi ni shime, inki a zoome ahuma ba idi kuri wada kababa.
14 If the people [who live in any house or town] do not welcome you [to their home or town], nor listen to your message, leave that house or town. And as you leave, shake off the dust from your feet. [By doing that, you will warn them that God will punish them for rejecting your message].
Vat desa magame ubuka utize nan shi, nani makunna tize tishi, innu suro ushi ikuburukka ussusuru utubuna tishime idusa.
15 Note this carefully: [At the time when God] judges [all people, he] will punish [the people who lived in] Sodom and Gomorrah [MTY], [the ancient cities which God destroyed because their people were extremely wicked]. But in any town where the people [MTY] refuse to hear your message, God will punish them even more severely.”
Kadundure kani, inboshi roni tize me adi tekki innu cekki uni pin nu sabo ma nan nu gomarata inni nipin niginome.
16 “Take note: After I send you out, [you will be as defenseless] as sheep [MET] in the midst of [people who are as dangerous as] wolves. So you should wisely [stay away from such people, like you stay away from poisonous] snakes [SIM]. You should be as harmless as doves are [SIM].
I ye, matumashi kasi itam atii amadaru. Anime cukuno ni jinji kasi iwa, anu zatu ticari kasi ihurbe.
17 Also, be on guard against [our religious leaders]. They will arrest you and take you to the members of the religious councils [to put you on trial and punish you because you are my disciples]. You will be whipped {The local leaders will whip you} [in] their meeting places.
Wuzani seke innanu, wadi hanshi ati gomo, wa cobi shi ati denge tini nonzo nuweme.
18 [And] because [you teach] about me, you will be taken {[the religious leaders] will take you} to governors and kings [in order that they may put you on trial and punish you]. As a result, you will testify to those rulers and to [other] non-Jews [about what I have done].
Wadi hanshi aje ati gomo barki mi, barki ibuki immum aje anu zatu urusa utize ta sere.
19 When [the religious leaders] arrest you, do not be worried about what you will say [to them], because at that very time [the] Holy Spirit will tell you the words that you should say.
Uganiya sawa hannan shi, kati i wuzi ma aye matize sei di wuzi ba, nani imummu ubuka.
20 It is not that you [will decide what to] say. Instead, you will say what the Spirit of your [heavenly] Father tells [you to say].
Dakki shewani idi buki tize meba, bibe ba coo ushime bini bukki ati nyo ti shime.
21 [You will be taken] {[People who do not believe in me will] take you} to the authorities to be killed [because you believe in me. For example], people will betray their brothers, and fathers will betray their children. Children will rebel against their parents and cause [them] to be killed.
U henu madi nya uhenu ahume, a coo maddi nya vana. A' hana wadi wudi uzattu kunna wawu a hu anka coo.
22 Many people will hate you [because you believe in me]. Nevertheless, [many people] will keep on believing in me until they die. They are the people whom [God] will take to live with him.
Ko davi madi game shi barki mi, vat desa ma tonno in i kara me mani madi kem u bura.
23 When people in one town cause you to suffer, escape to another town [and tell the people there about me]. Note this: [I], the one who came down from heaven, will certainly return [to earth] before you have finished going from one town to another town throughout Israel [and telling people about me].
In ki wagame u ira ushi ani pin me i akki uhana aje. Vannu nu madizee a shii da sarki ukatee uti pin-pin ti isaraila.
24 A disciple should not [expect to be] greater than his teacher, and servants [are not] superior to their master.
Unu tarsa u dungara mada akkame unu dungarame ba, urere madaa aggi zame una kura ame ba.
25 You do not [expect that] people will [treat] a disciple better than [they treat] his teacher, or that [they will treat] a servant [better than they treat] his master. [Similarly, because I am your teacher and master, you can expect that people will mistreat you, because they have mistreated me]. The most you can expect is that people [will treat you like they treat me. I am like] the ruler of a household [MET]. But people [have insulted me by] calling [me] Beelzebub, [the ruler of the demons]. So they [will] certainly [insult you more, you who are only like] members of my household [MET]!”
Yabari unu tarsa unu dungara ma cukkuno kashi unu dungara ume, ure re kassi una kura ame, in watitta una kura ba'al zabul, ana kuramee wadi titti me ani!
26 “Do not be afraid of [people who insult you and do evil things to you. God wants] everything that is unknown now to be revealed {[God wants you to] reveal everything [that is unknown now]}. [He does] not [want his truth] to remain hidden [MET] and kept secret [DOU].
“Katti ikkunnabiyau ba, barki imum be sa i inpi idi pokino nani imum be sa izi nihunzi adi dezi ini.
27 [So, instead of being afraid], what I say to you [secretly as people do] at night [MTY], tell [publicly as people do] during the daytime [MTY]. What I [say to you privately as people do when they] whisper to you [MTY], proclaim publicly [MTY, DOU].
Imumbe sa yakkunna abi bukkum inye ne assrer ibezi.
28 Do not be afraid of people who [are able to] kill your body [SYN] but are not able to destroy your soul. Instead, fear [God because] he is able to destroy both a [person’s] body and a [person’s] soul in hell. (Geenna g1067)
Katti kunna biyau banu huna unu, wadake wada huname bibeu buwe ba, senke ikunna biyau bide sa madake ma hu bibeu me nan ni pun vat akura ura. (Geenna g1067)
29 [Think about the] sparrows. [They have so little value] that [you] can buy cares two of them for [only] one small coin [RHQ]. But when [any] sparrow falls to the ground [and dies] [LIT], [God], your [heavenly] Father, knows it, [because he cares about everything].
Daa, vana ubi uyin ikobu ini re ini ba? bire bidi da wonome sarki u hem ume.
30 [He cares about you, too]. He even knows how many hairs you have on your head!
Marusa vat ugwardan utice ti shine.
31 [God] values you much more than he values sparrows [LIT]. So, do not be afraid [of people who threaten to kill you]
Kati kunna biyau ba ugancan ushine uteki umu uyin gwardang.
32 If people, [without being afraid, are willing to] tell others [that they are my disciples], I will acknowledge before my Father who is in heaven [that they are my disciples].
Anabu wa be zum uhem, micangi indi bezi uhem ahira a coo uru asesere.
33 But if they are afraid to say in front of others that they are my [disciples], I will tell my Father, who is in heaven, [that] they are not [my disciples].”
Desa magu na ma taa me, mi cangi indi gu in taamme amuhe nu ma nabu ahira ugomo Asere.
34 “Do not think that I came to earth to cause [people] to live together harmoniously. The result of my coming is that [some of those who follow me] [MTY] will be killed.
Kati iziki ma aye innu runta uni a nyomo unee um. U vira uni daa gi uruntaba.
35 Because I came [to earth, people who do not believe in me] will oppose [those who do believe in me. For example], some sons will oppose their fathers, some daughters will oppose their mothers, and some daughters-in-law will oppose their mothers-in-law.
Ma ayee ni inpati unu ishina nan ka coome, u ca nan ka inome, unee nan nu giri.
36 [This shows that sometimes] a person’s enemies will be members of his own household.
I di cukukono ana kura wani ani shina unu.
37 People who love their fathers or mothers more than [they love] me are not worthy to [have a relationship with me]. And people who love their sons or daughters more than [they love] me are not worthy [to belong to] me.
Desa mateki innu hemun inka coo nan ka ino daki ummani mazi ba, ane ani vana nan nu ca daki um mani ba.
38 [People who are ready to execute a prisoner force him to] carry a cross [to the place where they will nail him to it] [MET]. Those who are not [willing to allow other people to hurt and disgrace them like that because of being my disciples] are not worthy to belong to me.
Desa daki mazikka ugankirka utiti umeme ba, daa yawuna uri macukuno umba.
39 People who [deny that they believe in me in order to escape being killed] will not live [with God eternally] [MET], but people who [confess that they believe in] me and, [as a result are] killed, will live [with God eternally] [MET].”
Vat desa ma hem inni ce nume, ma di diri nini. Vat desa madira nice nu me barki mi, madi kem asesere.
40 “[God considers that] everyone who welcomes you, welcomes me [SIM], and [he considers that] everyone who welcomes me welcomes [him], the one who sent me [SIM].
Desa maa hemmin shi, mahemmim mi, desa mahemmin mi mahemmin desa matuma.
41 Those who welcome [someone because] [MTY] [they know] that person is a prophet they will receive the [same] reward that prophets [receive from God. Likewise], those who welcome a person [because] [MTY] [they know] that person is righteous will receive the reward righteous people [receive from God].
Desa mahem in ureunu kurzuzo u tize madi kunna urunta unu kurzuzo tizee. Dedesa mahem innu adili madi kunna urunya uadili ne.
42 [Note this: ] people [see that you are thirsty] [MTY] [and] give you a drink of cold water because they know that [MTY] you are one of my disciples. [God] will certainly reward people who do that. [They might consider that what they did] is insignificant, [but God will consider it very significant]” [LIT].
Vat desa ma nya ure vana uledai umei barki me unu tarsa ummani madi da dirame imum b a.
