Matthew 15
1 Then there came to Jesus a party of Pharisees and Scribes from Jerusalem, who inquired,
U Farisawa ni anabawa bari barji ni Urushalima yeni Yesu. Ba tre.
2 "Why do your disciples transgress the tradition of the Elders by not washing their hands before meals?"
“A ngye tie rli u mir koh me ba wru ikpi ba tie hlega? Bana ngla wo mba rli na nda rli birli na”
3 "Why do you, too," He retorted, "transgress God's commands for the sake of your tradition?
Yesu a saa bawu nda tre, “U ni tungye mba bi wru tre Rji hle ndi hu tre ba tie mbi?
4 For God said, 'Honour thy father and thy mother'; and 'Let him who reviles father or mother be certainly put to death';
E Irji hla, 'ku khwu ni tieme ni yime, mba Indi wa tre meme ni tieme kani yimaa, gbigbi ani khwu.
5 but you--this is what you say: 'If a man says to his father or mother, That is consecrated, whatever it is, which otherwise you should have received from me--
U bi hla ndi, Indi wa a hla ni tiema ka ni yima, Bi zo wa u fe rji ni mea, zizanyi ahi nno uka nno Rji”
6 he shall be absolved from honouring his father'; and so you have abrogated God's Word for the sake of your tradition.
Indi kima na sison tie zizi ni tiema na. Ni nkonyi mba bi ya tre Rji hlega ni tu ikpi u ba baci mbi.
7 Hypocrites! well did Isaiah prophesy of you,
Biyi bi brji! a tsra ni tre Ishaya ni wa a tre ni tu mbi a,
8 "'This is a People who honour Me with their lips, while their heart is far away from Me;
Indi birji ba gbre mi san ni l'me mba, u dri mba he gbugban mu ni me.
9 but it is in vain they worship Me, while they lay down precepts which are mere human rules.'"
Ba kukhwu ni mu megyen don ba tsro na ikpi u ba baci mba ni ndi”.
10 Then, when He had called the people to Him, Jesus said, "Hear and understand.
Wa ayo j'bu ndi ye ni kpama nda hla bawu, “Srenton ndi tozu-”
11 It is not what goes into a man's mouth that defiles him; but it is what comes out of his mouth--that defiles a man."
Ana kpye wa ari nyua mba ni ka indi tie rji na. Ahi kpye wa a rju rji ni mi nyua, kimayi ni kpa indi tie rji”.
12 Then His disciples came and said to Him, "Do you know that the Pharisees were greatly shocked when they heard those words?"
U mrli koh ma baka ye nda hla wu din “u to' ndi Farisawa ba ba tie nfu ni wa ba wo tre mea?”
13 "Every plant," He replied, "which my Heavenly Father has not planted will be rooted up.
Yesu a saa bawu nda tre, “Iwu wa ana tiemu u shulu cuna, ba gbi u rju.
14 Leave them alone. They are blind guides of the blind; and if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into some pit."
Don ba me, ba bi fyen bi tsro nkon. U ndi u fyen ni ta tsro indin u fyen ri nkon hamba wu ba kuhle ni mi nkpenrlen.
15 "Explain to us this figurative language," said Peter.
Bitru a saa ni Yesu, “Hla misalia ni tawu,”
16 "Are even you," He answered, "still without intellingence?
Yesu a hla, “Biyi me bina to zu ngame rlina?
17 Do you not understand that whatever enters the mouth passes into the stomach and is afterwards ejected from the body?
Bina to na din ikpye wa ari ni nyu ani grji tsihi ni mi ne nda rju hle hi ni juju utra nye?
18 But the things that come out of the mouth proceed from the heart, and it is these that defile the man.
U ikpye wa ani rju rji ni nyua ba rju rji ni mi dri. Bi kimayi ba kpa ndi tie rji.
19 For out of the heart proceed wicked thoughts, murder, adultery, fornication, theft, perjury, impiety of speech.
A ni mi dri mba meme mre ba rju wuu ndi wa mba kplakpa zren iybi hu gonce, ni ba mre.
20 These are the things which defile the man; but eating with unwashed hands does not defile."
Biyi yi ba kpi wa ba kpa ndi tie rjia. Rli ni wo wa bana ngla a na-na kpa ndi tie rji (meme) na.
21 Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew into the vicinity of Tyre and Sidon.
Yesu a wlu ni kiyi hi ni ko kiekle gbu bi taya mba sidon
22 Here a Canaanitish woman of the district came out and persistently cried out, "Sir, Son of David, pity me; my daughter is cruelly harassed by a demon."
U'wa u ka'ana ri aye rji ni nklan kokima a kla gble nyu nda tre, “Wo yi mu, Baci, Ivren Doda! Ivrenwa mu si ti kponya ni meme brji.
23 But He answered her not a word. Then the disciples interposed, and begged Him, saying, "Send her away because she keeps crying behind us."
U Yesu kana saa kpyeri niwu na. Mrli koh ma baye nda brewu, nda tre, “Zuu don hi kpama, ahu ta nda ni han ta ton”.
24 "I have only been sent to the lost sheep of the house of Israel," He replied.
U Yesu kana saa ni bawu nda tre, Bana ton me hi ni ndio na, atutu ntma Israila wa ba kadoa.
25 Then she came and threw herself at His feet and entreated Him. "O Sir, help me," she said.
Aye nda kukhwu ni ko shishima, nda tre “Baci zome”.
26 "It is not right," He said, "to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs."
A saa niwu nda tre, “A na he tu nkon na ni ndu ba ban bredi mrli tayo ni mrli yawhu na.
27 "Be it so, Sir," she said, "for even the dogs eat the scraps which fall from their masters' tables."
A tre, “E, Baci imrli yawhu ba rli rjurju wa ani kuhle ni tebru indi u koha.
28 "O woman," replied Jesus, "great is your faith: be it done to you as you desire." And from that moment her daughter was restored to health.
U Yesu saa niwu, “Iwa ikponji me babran ndu he niwu towa u son a” Ivrenwa ma a fe si ni nton kima.
29 Again, moving thence, Jesus went along by the Lake of Galilee; and ascending the hill, He sat down there.
Yesu a don wrji kima nda hi ni ne Galili a hon hi ni ngblu nda ka kuson ni kima.
30 Soon great crowds came to Him, bringing with them those who were crippled in feet or hands, blind or dumb, and many besides, and they hastened to lay them at His feet. And He cured them,
Kpentren ndi baye niwu. Ba nji bi conrju, bifyen bi nkpran, bi cbiza ni ndi bi kuyren ni gbugbuwu ndi bari bi lilo ye niwu. Ba nji ba ye ni kbu ma wa a den ba.
31 so that the people were amazed to see the dumb speaking, the maimed with their hands perfect, the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they gave the glory to the God of Israel.
U j'bu ndi ba baka manji ma wakran ni wa ba to bi tie nkpan ba tre, bi c'bi za ba fe den, ubi conrju ba zren ni bi fyen ba to. ba gbyre Rji Israila san.
32 But Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, "My heart yearns over this mass of people, for it is now the third day that they have been with me and they have nothing to eat. I am unwilling to send them away hungry, lest they should faint on the road."
Yesu a yo mrli koh ma ye ni kpama nda tre,”Ijbu ndi ba ba' lome sron niwa ba he nime vi tra ye nda nafe kpye rli na. mina son tru bahi hama ni rli na, ni ndu ba na kukmo ni nkon na.
33 "Where can we," asked the disciples, "get bread enough in this remote place to satisfy so vast a multitude?"
Mrli koh ma ba tre, “Ani ntsen yi kie fe gble bredi wa ani mla ijbu ndi bayi?
34 "How many loaves have you?" Jesus asked. "Seven," they said, "and a few small fish."
Yesu a tre ni ba, “Bi he ni gble bredi bren?” Ba tre, “Itangban, ni mrli lambe tsame”
35 So He bade all the people sit down on the ground,
U Yesu a yo ba ndu ba kuki ni meme.
36 and He took the seven loaves and the fish, and after giving thanks He broke them up and then distributed them to the disciples, and they to the people.
A vu gble bredi tangban ba u lambe'a a ngyri, nda mre gble bredi ba kanno mrli koh ma. Mrli koh maa ba kpa nno jbu ndi ba.
37 And they all ate and were satisfied. The broken portions that remained over they took up--seven full hampers.
Indi ba ba tan wawu mba wu nda whrjia. Ba vu rjurju wa ba tan don mbru ma tie sisen tangban.
38 Those who ate were 4,000 adult men, without reckoning women and children.
Biwa ba tan a, ba lilon dubu zya, imba ni mrli bana bla ba yo na.
39 He then dismissed the people, went on board the boat, and came into the district of Magadan.
Yesu a ndu j'bu ndi ba hi kpa mba nda ri ni ghwu hi nklan Magadan.
