Luka 6
1 Gbe ɖeka le Dzudzɔgbe ŋkekea dzi esi Yesu kple eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo zɔ to bligble aɖewo me va yina la, nusrɔ̃lawo ŋe bli aɖewo, klẽ tsro le wo ŋu henɔ ɖuɖum.
And it came to pass on the second sabbath after the first, that he went through the corn fields; and his disciples plucked the ears of corn, and did eat, rubbing them in their hands.
2 Farisitɔ aɖewo nɔ afi ma kpɔ wo, eye wogblɔ na Yesu be, “Nu ka ta miewɔ nu si mele se nu be woawɔ le Dzudzɔgbe ŋkeke dzi o mahã?”
And certain of the Pharisees said to them, Why do you that which is not lawful to do on the sabbath days?
3 Yesu ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Alo miexlẽ nu tso nu si David wɔ esi dɔ wu eya kple eŋutimewo ŋu oa?
And Jesus answering them said, Have you not read so much as this, what David did, when himself was an hungered, and they which were with him;
4 Eyi ɖe Mawu ƒe aƒe la me, eye wòtsɔ abolo tɔxɛ si wotsɔ ɖo Mawu ŋkume la, eye wòɖui, togbɔ be mele se nu be ame aɖeke naɖu abolo sia o negbe nunɔlawo ko.”
How he went into the house of God, and did take and eat the show bread, and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat but for the priests alone?
5 Yesu gblɔ kpe ɖe eŋu be, “Nye Amegbetɔ Vi lae nye Aƒetɔ na Dzudzɔgbe ŋkeke la gɔ̃ hã.”
And he said to them, That the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.
6 Le Dzudzɔgbe bubu gbe esi wònɔ nu fiam le ƒuƒoƒe la, ekpɔ ame aɖe si tsitsi lé asi na la le afi ma.
And it came to pass also on another sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue and taught: and there was a man whose right hand was withered.
7 Esi wònye Dzudzɔgbe ŋkeke dzie ta la, agbalẽfialawo kple Farisitɔwo ɖe ŋku ɖe edzi gãa henɔ ekpɔm be ada gbe le amea ŋu le ŋkekea dzi hã. Wonɔ ŋku lém ɖe eŋu elabena wodi be wòawɔ vodada aɖe be yewoatsɔ nya ɖe eŋu.
And the scribes and Pharisees watched him, whether he would heal on the sabbath day; that they might find an accusation against him.
8 Yesu nya nu si bum ame siawo nɔ xoxoxo, gake egblɔ na ŋutsua be, “Tso va nɔ tsitre ɖe afii be ame sia ame nakpɔ wò.” Ŋutsu la tso ɖe tsitrenu abe ale si wògblɔ nɛ ene.
But he knew their thoughts, and said to the man which had the withered hand, Rise up, and stand forth in the middle. And he arose and stood forth.
9 Azɔ Yesu trɔ ɖe Farisitɔwo kple agbalẽfialawo gbɔ, eye wògblɔ na wo be, “Biabia aɖe le asinye na mi. Ɖe woɖe mɔ be woawɔ nyui le Dzudzɔgbe ŋkekea dzi loo alo woawɔ vɔ̃a? Enyo be woaxɔ ame ɖe agbe loo alo woawuia?”
Then said Jesus to them, I will ask you one thing; Is it lawful on the sabbath days to do good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy it?
10 Etsa ŋku le wo katã dzi ɖekaɖeka, eye wògblɔ na ŋutsua be, “Dzɔ wò asi.” Edzɔ asia kasia eƒe asi gaɖɔ ɖo.
And looking round about on them all, he said to the man, Stretch forth your hand. And he did so: and his hand was restored whole as the other.
11 Nuwɔna sia do dziku na Yesu ƒe futɔwo ŋutɔ. Wode asi ɖoɖowɔwɔ me le nu si woate ŋu awɔ Yesu la ŋuti.
And they were filled with madness; and communed one with another what they might do to Jesus.
12 Le nu siawo megbe la, Yesu yi to aɖe dzi gbe ɖeka be yeado gbe ɖa. Edo gbe ɖa na Mawu zã blibo katã.
And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.
13 Esi ŋu ke la, eyɔ eyomenɔlawo katã ƒo ƒui, eye wòtia ame wuieve le wo dome bena woanye yeƒe nusrɔ̃lawo. Ame siawoe woyɔ be apostolowo.
And when it was day, he called to him his disciples: and of them he chose twelve, whom also he named apostles;
14 Ameawo ƒe ŋkɔwoe nye, Simɔn (ame si wòna ŋkɔe be Petro), Andrea si nye Simɔn nɔviŋutsu, Yakobo, Yohanes, Filipo, Bartolomeo,
Simon, (whom he also named Peter, ) and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,
15 Mateo, Toma, Yakobo si nye Alfeo vi, Simɔn ame si nye Zelote dunyaheha sesẽ aɖe me nɔla;
Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon called Zelotes,
16 Yuda si nye Yakobo vi, kple Yuda Iskariɔt ame si va zu yomemɔfiala.
And Judas the brother of James, and Judas Iscariot, which also was the traitor.
17 Esi wòɖi tso toa dzi la, nusrɔ̃lawo kple eyomenɔlawo va ƒo ƒu ɖe Yesu ŋuti le gbadzaƒe aɖe. Ameha gã aɖe hã va ɖe to ɖe wo, amewo tso Yudea nutowo me katã kple Yerusalem. Ɖewo tso keke Sidon kple Tiro ƒutaduwo me ke
And he came down with them, and stood in the plain, and the company of his disciples, and a great multitude of people out of all Judaea and Jerusalem, and from the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, which came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases;
18 va be yewoaɖo toe alo be wòada gbe le yewo ŋu. Gbe ma gbe la, enya gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ geɖewo le amewo me.
And they that were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed.
19 Ame geɖewo ŋutɔ nɔ didim be yewoaka asi eŋu, elabena ŋusẽ do go tso eme, eye wòda gbe le wo katã ŋu.
And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went virtue out of him, and healed them all.
20 Azɔ etrɔ ɖe eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo gbɔ hegblɔ na wo be, “Dzidzɔ gã ŋutɔ le mi ame siwo nye ame dahewo la lalalm, elabena miawo tɔe nye mawufiaɖuƒe la.
And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be you poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.
21 Dzidzɔ gã ŋutɔ le mi ame siwo wum dɔ le la lalam, elabena miawoe aɖi ƒo. Dzidzɔ gã ŋutɔ le mi ame siwo le avi fam fifia la lalam, elabena ɣeyiɣi gbɔna esi miava ko nu.
Blessed are you that hunger now: for you shall be filled. Blessed are you that weep now: for you shall laugh.
22 Dzidzɔ gã ŋutɔ le mia lalam, ne amewo lé fu mi, ɖe mi le woƒe ha me, eye wodzu mi, heƒo ɖi miaƒe ŋkɔ ɖe Amegbetɔ Vi la ta!
Blessed are you, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man’s sake.
23 “Dzi nedzɔ mi, eye mitso aseye, elabena fetu nyui le mia lalam le dziƒo. Alea tututue wo fofowo wɔ ɖe nyagblɔɖila siwo do ŋgɔ na mi la hã ŋuti.
Rejoice you in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers to the prophets.
24 “Ao, baba na mi kesinɔtɔwo, elabena wokpɔ dzidzɔ le anyigba sia dzi xoxo.
But woe to you that are rich! for you have received your consolation.
25 Babaa na mi ame siwo ƒe ƒodo yɔ, elabena dɔwuame sesẽ aɖe le ŋgɔ na wo gbɔna.
Woe to you that are full! for you shall hunger. Woe to you that laugh now! for you shall mourn and weep.
26 Woƒe nukoko ɖe yame fifia ava zu konyifafa na wo. Babaa na mi ame siwo ŋu amewo aƒo nu nyui le, elabena nenema kee wo fofowo wɔ na aʋatsonyagblɔɖilawo.
Woe to you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets.
27 “Ke mi ame siwo le to ɖom la, mele egblɔm na mi be: Milɔ̃ miaƒe futɔwo, eye miawɔ nyui na ame siwo lé fu mi la.
But I say to you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,
28 Miyra ame siwo ƒo fi de mi la, eye mido gbe ɖa ɖe ame siwo wɔa fu mi la ta.
Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which spitefully use you.
29 “Nenye be ame aɖe ƒo wò tome ɖeka la, trɔ evelia hã nɛ wòaƒo! Nenye be ame aɖe tsɔ wò dziwui la, mègagbe wò awutewuitsɔtsɔ nɛ o.
And to him that smites you on the one cheek offer also the other; and him that takes away your cloak forbid not to take your coat also.
30 Ne nu le asiwò, eye ame aɖe bia wò la, nae eye mègabia be netrɔe vɛ na ye o.
Give to every man that asks of you; and of him that takes away your goods ask them not again.
31 Ale si tututu nèdina be amewo newɔ na ye la, wò hã wɔ na wo nenema.
And as you would that men should do to you, do you also to them likewise.
32 “Ne mielɔ̃ mia lɔ̃lawo ɖeɖe ko ɖe, miebui be miewɔ nanea? Ame siwo nye nu vɔ̃ wɔlawo hã lɔ̃a wo xɔlɔ̃wo.
For if you love them which love you, what thank have you? for sinners also love those that love them.
33 Ne miewɔa dɔmenyo na ame siwo wɔa dɔmenyo na mi ko ɖe, akpedada kae li na mi? Nu vɔ̃ wɔlawo gɔ̃ hã wɔna nenema!
And if you do good to them which do good to you, what thank have you? for sinners also do even the same.
34 Ne miedoa ga na ame siwo miele mɔ kpɔm na be woagaxee na mi emegbe ɖe, nu nyui kae wònye miewɔ? Nu vɔ̃ɖi wɔla akuakuawo hã doa nu na wo tɔ nu vɔ̃ɖi wɔlawo be yewoaxɔ nenema ke emegbe.
And if you lend to them of whom you hope to receive, what thank have you? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again.
35 “Milɔ̃ miaƒe ketɔwo, eye miwɔ dɔmenyo na wo. Mido nu na wo, eye migakpɔ mɔ na exɔxɔ o. Ne miewɔ esia la, ekema miaƒe fetu asɔ gbɔ le dziƒo, eye mianye Dziƒoʋĩtɔ la ƒe viwo elabena eya ŋutɔ nyoa dɔme na akpemadalawo kple tagbɔ sesẽ tɔwo hã.
But love you your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and you shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind to the unthankful and to the evil.
36 “Mizu nublanuikpɔlawo abe ale si mia Fofo hã nye nublanuikpɔla ene.
Be you therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.
37 “Migadrɔ̃ ʋɔnu ame aɖeke, eye Mawu hã nadrɔ̃ ʋɔnu mi o. Migabu fɔ ame aɖeke, eye Mawu hã nabu fɔ mi o. Mitsɔ amewo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ke wo, eye Mawu hã natsɔ miaƒe nu vɔ̃wo ake mi.
Judge not, and you shall not be judged: condemn not, and you shall not be condemned: forgive, and you shall be forgiven:
38 Mina nu, eye woana nu miawo hã. Nu siwo katã miena la, woatrɔ wo vɛ na mi woasɔ gbɔ agbã go sãa wu esi sinu miena, eye woatsɔe aɖo akɔ na mi. Dzidzenu si mietsɔ dzidze nui na amewo la, eya kee woatsɔ dzidze nui na miawo hã.”
Give, and it shall be given to you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that you mete with it shall be measured to you again.
39 Yesu yi edzi do lo sia na wo be, “Ɖe ŋkugbãtɔ ate ŋu akplɔ ŋkuagbãtɔa? Ɖe wo kple eve la mage adze do me oa?
And he spoke a parable to them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch?
40 Nusrɔ̃la mewua eƒe nufiala o. Ke ame sia ame si xɔ hehe nyuitɔ la anɔ ko abe eƒe nufiala ene.
The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master.
41 “Nu ka ta nèkpɔa ati fefi si le nɔviwò ƒe ŋku dzi, gake mèkpɔa atikpo si le wò ŋutɔ wò ŋku dzi o mahã?
And why behold you the mote that is in your brother’s eye, but perceive not the beam that is in your own eye?
42 Aleke wɔ nàgblɔ na nɔviwò be, ‘Nɔvi, na maɖe ati fefi si le wò ŋku dzi la ɖa na wò,’ esi màte ŋu akpɔ gãa si le wò ŋutɔ wò ŋkuwo dzi aɖe o? Alakpanuwɔla, ɖe atikpo si le wò ŋku dzi la ɖa gbã ekema àte ŋu akpɔ nu nyuie, ale be nàte ŋu aɖe nɔviwò ƒe ati fefi la ɖa nɛ.
Either how can you say to your brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in your eye, when you yourself behold not the beam that is in your own eye? You hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of your own eye, and then shall you see clearly to pull out the mote that is in your brother’s eye.
43 “Ati nyui aɖeke mate ŋu atse ku manyomanyo o, eye ati manyomanyo mate ŋu atse ku nyui o.
For a good tree brings not forth corrupt fruit; neither does a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
44 Ku si ati aɖe tsena lae wotsɔna dzea si ati si ƒomevi wònye lae; elabena womegbea gbowo le ŋutiwo dzi o, alo wotsoa wainkpo le ŋuve me.
For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.
45 Ame nyui ƒe nuƒo fiana be nu nyui wɔwɔ yɔ eƒe dzi me. Ke ame vɔ̃ɖi ya ƒe dzi me yɔna fũu kple nu vɔ̃, eye eƒe nuƒo ɖea vɔ̃ɖivɔ̃ɖi sia fiana.
A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.
46 “Nu ka tae mieyɔam be ‘Aƒetɔ, Aƒetɔ’, evɔ miewɔa nye gbe dzi o?
And why call you me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
47 Ame sia ame si vaa gbɔnye, eye wòsea nye nya, eye wòwɔa edzi la, mafia ame si wòɖi mi.
Whoever comes to me, and hears my sayings, and does them, I will show you to whom he is like:
48 Eɖi ame aɖe si tu xɔ, eɖe do goglo, eye wòɖo gɔmeɖokpe nyuie ɖe kpe gbadza dzi, ke esi tɔ ɖɔ, eye tsi ɖe xɔa la, mete ŋu mui o, elabena wotui nyuie.
He is like a man which built an house, and dig deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently on that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded on a rock.
49 Ke ame si sea nye nya, eye mewɔna ɖe edzi o la le abe ame aɖe si tu eƒe xɔ ɖe anyigba, eye meɖo gɔmeɖokpe nɛ o la ene. Esi tsi dza ɖɔ ɖe eŋu la, xɔ sia mu gbloo, hegbã gudugudu.”
But he that hears, and does not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house on the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.
