< Luke 4 >
1 And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, turned back from the Jordan, and was brought in the Spirit to the wilderness,
Azɔ Yesu si me Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe la yɔ fũu la dzo le Yɔdan tɔsisi la to, eye Gbɔgbɔ la kplɔe yi ɖe Yudea ƒe gbedadaƒo afi aɖe.
2 forty days being tempted by the Devil, and he did not eat anything in those days, and they having been ended, he afterward hungered,
Enɔ afi ma ŋkeke blaene, eye Abosam va tee kpɔ le ŋkeke siawo katã me. Meɖu naneke le ŋkeke siawo katã me o, ale dɔ wui vevie.
3 and the Devil said to him, 'If Son thou art of God, speak to this stone that it may become bread.'
Abosam gblɔ nɛ be, “Nenye be Mawu vie nenye tututu la, ekema ɖe gbe na kpe siawo be woatrɔ zu abolo.”
4 And Jesus answered him, saying, 'It hath been written, that, not on bread only shall man live, but on every saying of God.'
Yesu ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Woŋlɔ ɖe Ŋɔŋlɔ Kɔkɔea me be, Menye nuɖuɖu ɖeɖe ko ŋuti ame nanɔ agbe ɖo o.”
5 And the Devil having brought him up to an high mountain, shewed to him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time,
Abosam kplɔe yi teƒe kɔkɔ aɖee, eye wòɖe xexea me fiaɖuƒewo katã fiae le ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe ko me,
6 and the Devil said to him, 'To thee I will give all this authority, and their glory, because to me it hath been delivered, and to whomsoever I will, I do give it;
eye wògblɔ na Yesu be, “Wòe matsɔ ŋusẽ sia katã kple ŋutikɔkɔe ana; elabena tɔnyewoe, eye mate ŋu atsɔ wo na ame sia ame si melɔ̃.
7 thou, then, if thou mayest bow before me — all shall be thine.'
Eya ta ne èdze klo de ta agu nam ko la, matsɔ wo na wò.”
8 And Jesus answering him said, 'Get thee behind me, Adversary, for it hath been written, Thou shalt bow before the Lord thy God, and Him only thou shalt serve.'
Yesu ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Abe ale si woŋlɔ ɖe Ŋɔŋlɔ Kɔkɔea mee ene la, Mawu ɖeka hɔ̃ɔ ko wòle be míasubɔ.”
9 And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to him, 'If the Son thou art of God, cast thyself down hence,
Azɔ Abosam gakplɔe yi Yerusalem, eye wòtsɔe ɖo gbedoxɔ la ƒe kɔkɔƒe kekeake. Egblɔ nɛ be, “Nenye Mawu vie nènye vavã la, ti kpo tso afi sia.
10 for it hath been written — To His messengers He will give charge concerning thee, to guard over thee,
Elabena woŋlɔ ɖi be, “‘Ade se na eƒe dɔlawo le ŋutiwò be woakpɔ tawò nyuie
11 and — On hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou mayest dash against a stone thy foot.'
woatsɔ wò ɖe woƒe asiwo me, ale be màtsɔ wò afɔ axlã ɖe kpe aɖeke o.’”
12 And Jesus answering said to him — 'It hath been said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.'
Yesu ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Ŋɔŋlɔ Kɔkɔe la gblɔ be, ‘Mègate Mawu wò Aƒetɔ la kpɔ o.’”
13 And having ended all temptation, the Devil departed from him till a convenient season.
Esi Abosam wu tetekpɔwo katã nu la, egblẽ Yesu ɖi dzo le egbɔ hena ɣeyiɣi bubu.
14 And Jesus turned back in the power of the Spirit to Galilee, and a fame went forth through all the region round about concerning him,
Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe la ƒe ŋusẽ yɔ Yesu me fũu azɔ ale wòtrɔ yi Galilea. Eteƒe medidi o la, amewo nyae le nuto sia me kpe ɖo.
15 and he was teaching in their synagogues, being glorified by all.
Le mawunya deto siwo wògblɔna le woƒe ƒuƒoƒewo ta la, ame sia ame kafunɛ ŋutɔ.
16 And he came to Nazareth, where he hath been brought up, and he went in, according to his custom, on the sabbath-day, to the synagogue, and stood up to read;
Eva Nazaret, afi si wonyii le, eye wòyi woƒe ƒuƒoƒe le Dzudzɔgbe ŋkekea dzi abe ale si wòwɔnɛ ene. Esi wòtso be yeaxlẽ mawunya la,
17 and there was given over to him a roll of Isaiah the prophet, and having unfolded the roll, he found the place where it hath been written:
wotsɔ Nyagblɔɖila Yesaya ƒe agbalẽ nɛ be wòaxlẽ. Eʋu teƒe si woŋlɔ ɖo be,
18 'The Spirit of the Lord [is] upon me, Because He did anoint me; To proclaim good news to the poor, Sent me to heal the broken of heart, To proclaim to captives deliverance, And to blind receiving of sight, To send away the bruised with deliverance,
“Aƒetɔ la ƒe Gbɔgbɔ le dzinye, eya ta wosi ami nam ɖo, edɔm ɖa be magblɔ nyanyui la na ame dahewo, edɔm ɖa be maɖe gbeƒã be woaɖe ga aboyomenɔlawo, eye ŋkunɔwo ƒe ŋkuwo aʋu. Ame siwo wote ɖe anyi la, ado le wo teɖeanyilawo si me,
19 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.'
eye maɖe gbeƒã Aƒetɔ la ƒe ƒe nyui la.”
20 And having folded the roll, having given [it] back to the officer, he sat down, and the eyes of all in the synagogue were gazing on him.
Esi wòxlẽ nya siawo vɔ la, etu agbalẽa, tsɔe na dɔla la, eye eya ŋutɔ yi ɖanɔ anyi. Ke ame siwo katã nɔ ƒuƒoƒea la fɔ ŋku ɖe edzi gãa.
21 And he began to say unto them — 'To-day hath this writing been fulfilled in your ears;'
Yesu gagblɔ na ameawo be, “Mawunya sia va eme le egbeŋkeke sia dzi.”
22 and all were bearing testimony to him, and were wondering at the gracious words that are coming forth out of his mouth, and they said, 'Is not this the son of Joseph?'
Ame siwo katã nɔ xɔa me la kafui, eye woƒe mo wɔ yaa le amenuvevenya siwo wògblɔ la ta. Wobia wo nɔewo be, “Nya kae nye esia? Alo menye Yosef vie oa?”
23 And he said unto them, 'Certainly ye will say to me this simile, Physician, heal thyself; as great things as we heard done in Capernaum, do also here in thy country;'
Yesu ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Ɖewohĩ miaɖo ŋku lododo sia adzi be, ‘Gbedala, da gbe le wò ŋutɔ ɖokuiwò ŋu’ esi gɔmee nye be, ‘Nu ka ta mèwɔ nukunuwo le wò ŋutɔ wò dedu me abe ale si nèwɔe le Kapernaum ene o?’
24 and he said, 'Verily I say to you — No prophet is accepted in his own country;
“Vavã mele egblɔm na mi be, bubu menɔa nyagblɔɖila aɖeke ŋu le eya ŋutɔ ƒe dedu me o.
25 and of a truth I say to you, Many widows were in the days of Elijah, in Israel, when the heaven was shut for three years and six months, when great famine came on all the land,
Mele egblɔm na mi kple kakaɖedzi be ahosi geɖewo nɔ Israel le Eliya ŋɔli, esi wotu dziƒo nu ƒe etɔ̃ kple afã, eye dɔwuame sesẽ aɖe va anyigba blibo la dzi.
26 and unto none of them was Elijah sent, but — to Sarepta of Sidon, unto a woman, a widow;
Gake womeɖo Eliya ɖe wo dometɔ aɖeke gbɔ o, ke boŋ woɖoe ɖe ahosi aɖe si tso Zarefat le Sidon nuto me la gbɔ.
27 and many lepers were in the time of Elisha the prophet, in Israel, and none of them was cleansed, but — Naaman the Syrian.'
Mibu Nyagblɔɖila Elisa, ame si da gbe le Naaman si nye Siriatɔ la ŋu kpɔ. Togbɔ be kpodɔléla geɖewo hã nɔ Israel siwo hiã gbedada vevie hã, Elisa meda gbe le woawo ŋu o, negbe Naaman Siriatɔ la ko.”
28 And all in the synagogue were filled with wrath, hearing these things,
Yesu ƒe nya siawo ve dɔ me na ameawo ŋutɔ le ƒuƒoƒea esi wose wo.
29 and having risen, they put him forth without the city, and brought him unto the brow of the hill on which their city had been built — to cast him down headlong,
Woƒe dziwo ho ɖe eŋu ale wotso hetutu asi ʋu me nɛ do goe le xɔa me. Wokplɔe yi togbɛ si dzi wotu dua ɖo la ƒe kɔkɔƒe be yewoatutui tso teƒe sia wòayi aɖadze agame.
30 and he, having gone through the midst of them, went away.
Gake ezɔ to amehawo dome hedzo le wo gbɔ kɔ̃ɔ.
31 And he came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and was teaching them on the sabbaths,
Yesu trɔ yi Kapernaum si nye du aɖe si le Galilea nuto me la me, eye le afi sia egblɔ mawunya na amewo le Dzudzɔgbe ŋkeke ɖe sia ɖe dzi le woƒe ƒuƒoƒewo.
32 and they were astonished at his teaching, because his word was with authority.
Eƒe nyagbɔgblɔwo wɔ nuku na ameawo katã le afi sia hã, elabena eƒo nu ŋusẽtɔe.
33 And in the synagogue was a man, having a spirit of an unclean demon, and he cried out with a great voice,
Gbe ɖeka esi Yesu nɔ mawunya gblɔm le ƒuƒoƒea la, ŋutsu aɖe si me gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ aɖe le la de asi ɣlidodo me ɖe eta be,
34 saying, 'Away, what — to us and to thee, Jesus, O Nazarene? thou didst come to destroy us; I have known thee who thou art — the Holy One of God.'
“Yesu Nazaretitɔ, nu ka ta nèle fu ɖem na mí ɖo? Ɖe nèva be yeatsrɔ̃ mía? Menya ame si nènye, wòe nye Mawu ƒe Vi Kɔkɔetɔ la.”
35 And Jesus did rebuke him, saying, 'Be silenced, and come forth out of him;' and the demon having cast him into the midst, came forth from him, having hurt him nought;
Yesu blu ɖe eta gblɔ be, “Zi ɖoɖoe!” Azɔ egblɔ na gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ la be, “Do go le ame sia me!” Gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ la tsɔ ŋutsua xlã ɖe anyi ŋɔdzitɔe, ameha la ƒo zi ɖe eŋu henɔ ekpɔm. Ke gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ la do go le amea me, eye megawɔ nu vevi aɖekee o.
36 and amazement came upon all, and they were speaking together, with one another, saying, 'What [is] this word, that with authority and power he doth command the unclean spirits, and they come forth?'
Esia wɔ nuku na ameawo ŋutɔ, ale wobia wo nɔewo be, “Ŋusẽ ka ƒomevie le ame sia ƒe nyawo ŋu, ale be gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ ŋutɔwo gɔ̃ hã ɖoa toe?”
37 and there was going forth a fame concerning him to every place of the region round about.
Nukunu si Yesu wɔ la kaka ɖe nutoa katã me le ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe ko me.
38 And having risen out of the synagogue, he entered into the house of Simon, and the mother-in-law of Simon was pressed with a great fever, and they did ask him about her,
Esi Yesu do go le ƒuƒoƒea gbe ma gbe la, eyi Simɔn ƒe aƒe me, eye wòke ɖe Simɔn lɔ̃xo ŋu wònɔ ŋudza sesẽ aɖe lém. Ame sia ame kloe va ɖe kuku na Yesu gblɔ be, “Míeɖe kuku na wò da gbe le eŋu.”
39 and having stood over her, he rebuked the fever, and it left her, and presently, having risen, she was ministering to them.
Yesu yi ɖatsi tsitre ɖe dɔnɔa ƒe aba gbɔ, eye wòɖe gbe na dɔlélea be wòaɖe asi le eŋu. Dzoxɔxɔ sesẽ si nɔ nyɔnu la ƒe lãme la nu bɔbɔ enumake, eye eƒe lãme sẽ. Ale wòtso yi ɖaɖa nu va ɖo woƒe akɔme.
40 And at the setting of the sun, all, as many as had any ailing with manifold sicknesses, brought them unto him, and he on each one of them [his] hands having put, did heal them.
Le ɣetrɔ miaa la, kɔƒea me tɔwo katã kplɔ ame siwo katã nɔ dɔ vovovowo lém le woƒe aƒewo me la vɛ na Yesu, eye wòda asi ɖe wo katã dzi heyɔ dɔ wo.
41 And demons also were coming forth from many, crying out and saying — 'Thou art the Christ, the Son of God;' and rebuking, he did not suffer them to speak, because they knew him to be the Christ.
Gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ tɔ aɖewo hã nɔ ameawo dome, ke Yesu ɖe gbe na gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ siawo be woado go le ameawo me, eye wodo go le eƒe nya nu henɔ ɣli dom be, “Wòe nye Mawu Vi la.” Esi Yesu kpɔ be gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo nya be yee nye Kristo la, eɖe gbe na wo be woazi ɖoɖoe.
42 And day having come, having gone forth, he went on to a desert place, and the multitudes were seeking him, and they came unto him, and were staying him — not to go on from them,
Le ŋkeke evea gbe ƒe ŋdi kanyaa la, efɔ, eye wòɖe eɖokui ɖe aga. Ameha la dii vevie le teƒe geɖewo, eye esi wova ke ɖe eŋu mlɔeba la, woɖe kuku nɛ be megadzo o, ke boŋ wòanɔ yewo gbɔ le Kapernaum.
43 and he said unto them — 'Also to the other cities it behoveth me to proclaim good news of the reign of God, because for this I have been sent;'
Ke Yesu ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Ele be magblɔ mawufiaɖuƒe la ƒe nyanyui la na du bubuwo hã, elabena esia tae wodɔm ɖo.”
44 and he was preaching in the synagogues of Galilee.
Ale wòdzo henɔ tsatsam le Yudea nutowo katã me kpe ɖo, nɔ mawunya gblɔm na amewo le woƒe ƒuƒoƒewo.
