Luka 8
1 Le esia megbe la, Yesu kplɔ eƒe nusrɔ̃la wuieveawo ɖe asi eye wode asi tsatsa me le du kple kɔƒe siwo le Galilea nutowo me la me nɔ gbeƒã ɖem mawufiaɖuƒe ŋu nyanyui la.
And it came to pass consecutively, that He was going through city and village, proclaiming and preaching the gospel of God, and the twelve along with Him.
2 Nyɔnu aɖe si me wònya gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo le kple esiwo ŋu wòda gbe le la kplɔ wo ɖo. Wo dometɔ aɖewoe nye Maria Magdalatɔ ame si me wònya gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ adre le,
And certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,
3 Yohana, Kuza srɔ̃, Kuza sia nye Fia Herod ƒe fiasã bliboa dzi kpɔla, Susana kple ame bubu geɖe siwo tsɔ woawo ŋutɔ ƒe ga kple nuɖuɖu nɔ Yesu kple eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo dzi kpɔmii.
and Joanna the wife of Chuzas the steward of Herod, and Susanna, and many other women, who were accustomed to minister unto Him from those things belonging to them.
4 Gbe ɖeka esi ame geɖe gaƒo ƒu ɖe Yesu ŋu be yewoase eƒe nyawo, eye bubuwo hã ganɔ mɔ dzi gbɔna tso du bubuwo me la, edo lo sia na wo be,
A great multitude being with Him, and coming to Him throughout every city, He spoke in a parable:
5 “Agbledela aɖe yi eƒe agble me be yeaƒã nuku. Esi wònɔ nukuawo wum la, ɖewo ge ɖe mɔƒome, eye amewo va zɔ wo dzi. Xeviwo hã va fɔ wo mi.
A sower went out to sow his seed. And while he was sowing, some fell by the way, and was trodden under foot, and the birds of the air devoured it.
6 Nuku aɖewo hã ge ɖe kpenyigba dzi. Nuku siawo de asi miemie me, gake wova yrɔ elabena woƒe kewo mete ŋu yi tome ʋĩi afi si woakpɔ tsi le o.
And other fell on the rock; and springing up, withered away, because it had no moisture.
7 Bubuwo ge ɖe ŋugbewo me, eye womie kple ŋuawo, gake ŋuawo va vu tsyɔ̃ wo dzi, eye wotsrɔ̃.
And other fell in the midst of thorns, and the thorns growing together, choked it out.
8 Nuku bubuwo ya ge ɖe anyigba nyui dzi, ale wotsi, tse ku alafa nanewo wu esi agbledela la wu.” Esi wògblɔ ŋutinya sia vɔ la, egblɔ be, “Ame si to senu li na la nesee.”
And other fell into good ground, and springing up, produced fruit, a hundredfold. Speaking these things, He cried out, Let the one having ears to hear, hear.
9 Eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo va egbɔ be wòaɖe lododo la gɔme na yewo.
And His disciples asked Him saying, What might this parable be?
10 Ke egblɔ na wo be, “Miawo la, wona nunya mi be miase mawufiaɖuƒe la ƒe nu ɣaɣlawo gɔme, ke hena ame bubuwo la, meƒoa nu na wo le lododowo me ale be, “‘Ne wokpɔ nu la, womadze sii o, ne wose nu hã la, womase egɔme o.’”
And He said; To you it has been given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to the rest in parables; in order that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.
11 Yesu gblɔ na wo be, “Lododo la gɔmee nye esi, nuku lae nye Mawu ƒe nya si wòtsɔ vɛ na amegbetɔwo.
And this is the parable: The seed is the word of God.
12 Mɔƒome afi si nuku aɖewo ge ɖo lae nye ame siwo ƒe dziwo ku atri. Ame siawo ƒomevi sea Mawu ƒe nya, gake Abosam vana, eye wòɖea nya la le woƒe dzi me ale be wometea ŋu xɔa edzi sena be woakpɔ ɖeɖe o.
And there are those who hear by the wayside; then the devil comes, and takes away the word from their heart, lest they believing may be saved.
13 Esiwo ge ɖe kpenyigba dzi lae nye ame siwo ne wose nya la la, woxɔnɛ kple dzidzɔ, gake metoa ke ɖe woƒe dziwo me be wòatsi o. Woxɔna sena ɣeyiɣi aɖe, ke le tetekpɔ ƒe ɣeyiɣiwo me la, wogbɔdzɔna.
And those on the stones are they who, when they may hear, receive the word with joy; and they have no root in them, who believe for a time, and in time of temptation they fall away.
14 Nuku si ge ɖe ŋu me lae nye ame siwo sea mawunya eye woxɔnɛ sena, gake agbe sia me ƒe fuɖenamewo, kesinɔnuwo, aglotutu, dzidzɔkpɔkpɔwo kple ŋutilã ƒe dzidzɔdonamenuwo vuna tsyɔ̃a nya la dzi le woƒe dziwo me, ale be wometsea ku ɖina o.
And that which falleth among thorns, there are those who hear, and going forward, by the cares and riches and pleasures are choked out, and bring forth no fruit to perfection.
15 Ke anyigba nyui lae nye ame siwo se nya la kple dzi nyui si dza, eye wolé eme ɖe asi sesĩe, ale wotsea ku le dzigbɔɖi me.”
And that which is in the good ground, are those whosoever hearing the word in a beautiful and good heart, retain it, and bring forth fruit with patience.
16 Ɣe bubu ɣi la, Yesu bia ameawo be, “Ame kae se kpɔ be ame aɖe si akaɖi, eye wòtsɔ nu tsyɔ edzi be megaklẽ o. Gbeɖe, akaɖi la, akaɖiti dzie wodanɛ ɖo be wòaklẽ be amewo nakpɔ nu.
But no one having lighted a candle covers it with a vessel, or puts it under a bed; but he places it on a candlestick, in order that those coming in may see the light.
17 Esia fia be gbe ɖeka la, woahe nu sia nu si le amewo ƒe dzi me la ɖe gaglãgbe be ame sia ame nakpɔ.
For there is nothing hidden which shall not be made manifest; neither is there any thing concealed, which may not be made known and come into the light.
18 Le esia ta mikpɔ nyuie le nu siwo miesena la ŋu elabena ame si si nu le la, eyae woagana nui, eye ame si si nu mele o la, woaxɔ esi wòbu be ele ye si la hã le esi.”
Therefore see how you hear: for whosoever may have, it shall be given unto him; and whosoever may not have, it shall be taken from him, even that which he seems to have.
19 Gbe ɖeka Yesu nɔviawo kple dadaa wova be yewoakpɔe ɖa. Amewo sɔ gbɔ ale gbegbe be dadaa kple nɔviawo mete ŋu te ɖe eŋu o.
And His mother and His brothers came to Him, and were not able to reach Him on account of the crowd.
20 Ame aɖe va gblɔ na Yesu be dadaa kple nɔviawo le edim be yewoakpɔ.
And it was told Him, Thy mother and thy brothers stand without, wishing to see thee.
21 Esi Yesu se be ye dada kple ye nɔviwo le xexe le ye dim la, egblɔ be, “Danye kple nɔvinyewoe nye ame siwo katã sea mawunya la, eye wowɔna ɖe edzi hã.”
And He responding said to them, My mother and my brothers are the ones hearing the word of God, and doing it.
22 Gbe bubu gbe esi eya kple eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo nɔ ʋu aɖe me le ƒua dzi la, Yesu bia tso nusrɔ̃lawo si be woaku ʋua yi ƒua ƒe go evelia dzi.
And it came to pass on one of the days, He and His disciples went into a ship. And He said to them, Let us go to the other side of the lake. And they were embarked.
23 Esi wonɔ ʋua me le ƒua dzi yina la, Yesu dɔ alɔ̃. Le ɣeyiɣi sia me la, ahom tu, eye ƒutsotsoewo ge ɖe ʋu la me, eye woƒe agbe ɖo xaxa gã aɖe me.
And they sailing, He was asleep: and a storm of wind came down into the lake; and they were being filled, and imperiled.
24 Nusrɔ̃lawo ɖe abla va Yesu gbɔ heʋuʋui, eye wònyɔ. Wogblɔ nɛ be, “Aƒetɔ, Aƒetɔ, míele nyɔnyrɔm!” Ale Yesu fɔ, eye wòblu ɖe ahom la ta. Enumake ɖoɖoe gã aɖe zi eye ahom la dzudzɔ. Ya la kple ƒutsotsoeawo dze kɔ anyi kpoo.
And they having come to Him, awakened Him, saying, Master, Master, we perish. And He having arisen, rebuked the wind and the wave of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm.
25 Azɔ ebia eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo be, “Afi ka míaƒe xɔse le?” Wo katã ƒe mo wɔ yaa, eye vɔvɔ̃ lé wo. Ɖeko wobia wo nɔewo be, “Ame kae nye ame sia, be ya kple ƒutsotsoewo gɔ̃ hã ɖoa toe?”
And He said to them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid were astonished, saying to one another, Who then is this, because He commands the winds and the water, and they obey Him?
26 Wova ɖi go ɖe Gadaratɔwo ƒe anyigba si le Galilea ƒua godo la dzi.
And they sailed into the country of the Gergesenes, which is over against Galilee.
27 Esi wonɔ go dom tso ʋua me ko la, ŋutsu aɖe si me gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo le, eye megado awu kpɔ o la si du tso Gadara dua me va kpe Yesu. Nɔƒe aɖeke mele ame sia si abe aƒe me ene o. Agado siwo me woɖi ame kukuwo ɖo la me wòmlɔna.
And a certain man from the city, who a long time had demons, and did not wear clothing, and did not remain in the house, but in the tombs; met Him having come to the land.
28 Esi wòkpɔ Yesu teti ko la, etsɔ eɖokui xlã ɖe anyigba le eŋgɔ henɔ ɣli dom be, “Nu ka dim nèle le gbɔnye, wò Yesu, Mawu Dziƒoʋĩtɔ la ƒe Vi. Meɖe kuku na wò, mègawɔ funyafunyam o!”
And seeing Jesus, and crying out, he worshiped Him, and said with a loud voice; What is there to me and to thee, O Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I pray thee torment me not.
29 Egblɔ nya sia, elabena Yesu de asi gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ la nyanya me le eme xoxo. Gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ sia xɔ amea me ale gbegbe be ne woblae kple gakɔsɔkɔsɔ hã la, etsoa kɔsɔkɔsɔa bɔbɔe hesina ɖoa gbe.
For He commanded the unclean spirit to come out from the man; for since a long time he had possessed him, and he was frequently bound, secured with chains and fetters, and smashing his bonds, was driven by the demons into the desert.
30 Yesu bia gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃a be, “Ŋkɔwò ɖe?” Eɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Ŋkɔnyee nye Legio,” elabena gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ geɖe yi eme.
And Jesus asked him saying, What is thy name? And he said Legion; because many demons entered into him.
31 Gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃awo ɖe kuku na Yesu vevie be meganya yewo de do globo si seɖoƒe meli na o la me o. (Abyssos g12)
And he continued to intreat Him that He should not command them to depart into the abyss. (Abyssos g12)
32 Aƒehawo ƒe ha gã aɖe nɔ nu ɖum le to si te ɖe wo ŋu la kɔgo le ɣeyiɣi sia me, eye gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃awo ɖe kuku na Yesu be nena yewoayi aɖage ɖe wo me. Ale Yesu na mɔ wo.
And there was a herd of many swine feeding in the mountain: and they continued to intreat Him that He should permit them to go into them. And He permitted them.
33 Gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃awo do go le amea me yi ɖage ɖe haawo me. Enumake haawo katã ƒu du sesĩe tso toa kɔgo yi ɖadze ƒu me doo heno tsi ku.
And the demons having come out from the man, came into the swine: and the herd rushed down a precipice into the sea, and were strangled.
34 Esi hakplɔlawo kpɔ nu siwo dzɔ la, wolé du tsɔ sesĩe tu ta duwo kple kɔƒe siwo te ɖe afi ma ŋu la me, eye esi wonɔ yiyim la, wonɔ nu si dzɔ la gblɔm na amewo.
And the herders seeing that which took place, fled, and proclaimed it in the city and in the country.
35 Eteƒe medidi o la, ameha gã aɖe va do be yewoakpɔ nu kple yewo ŋutɔ ƒe ŋkuwo. Wokpɔ ame si me gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃awo nɔ kpɔ la, eƒe mo kɔ, eye wòdo awu henɔ anyi ɖe Yesu ƒe afɔ nu kpoo, esia wɔe be vɔvɔ̃ gã aɖe ɖo ameawo katã.
And they came out to see that which had happened; and came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the demons had gone, clothed and in his right mind, at the feet of Jesus: and they were afraid.
36 Ame siwo kpɔ ale si Yesu da gbe le gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ tɔ la ŋui la gblɔe na wo tɔ bubuawo.
And those seeing reported to them how the demonized man was saved.
37 Ale Gadaratɔwo ƒe nutometɔwo katã ɖe kuku na Yesu be wòadzo le yewo gbɔ kpoo, elabena vɔvɔ̃ lé wo. Ke Yesu ge ɖe ʋua me hedzo le afi ma.
And all the multitudes of the surrounding country of the Gergesenes, asked Him to depart from them; because they were seized with great fear. And He having come Into the ship, returned.
38 Hafi wòadzo la, ame si me wònya gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃awo le la ɖe kuku nɛ vevie be yeayi kplii. Ke Yesu gbe gblɔ nɛ be,
And the man out of whom the demons had gone prayed to be with Him. And Jesus sent him away, saying,
39 “Trɔ nàyi wò ƒometɔwo gbɔ, eye nàgblɔ nu gã si Mawu wɔ na wò la na wo.” Ale ŋutsu sia dze mɔ nɔ tsatsam le dua me henɔ nukunu gã si Yesu wɔ la gblɔm na ameawo.
Return to thy own house, and relate, how many things God has done unto thee. And he departed throughout the whole city, preaching how many things Jesus did unto him.
40 Ke esi Yesu trɔ va la, ameha la xɔe atuu, elabena wonɔ mɔ kpɔm na eƒe vava xoxoxo.
And it came to pass when Jesus returned, the multitude received Him; for they were all looking for Him.
41 Azɔ ŋutsu aɖe si ŋkɔe nye Yairo si nye Yudatɔwo ƒe ƒuƒoƒedzikpɔlawo dometɔ ɖeka la va Yesu gbɔ dze klo ɖe eƒe afɔ nu heɖe kuku nɛ vevie be nekplɔ ye ɖo yi aƒe me,
Behold, a man to whom was the name Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue: and falling at the feet of Jesus, he continued to intreat Him to come into his house;
42 elabena vinyɔnuvi ɖeka hɔ̃ si le ye si si xɔ ƒe wuieve la le kudɔ ƒom. Yesu dze eyome enumake, gake ameha la mimii ɖo.
for there was an only daughter to him, of twelve years, and she was dying. And while He was going the multitudes were thronging Him.
43 Nyɔnu aɖe nɔ afi ma, ame si le ʋusisidɔ lém ƒe wuieve sɔŋ, gake ame aɖeke mete ŋu yɔ dɔe o.
And a woman being in an issue of blood twelve years, who having expended all her living with physicians, was not able to be healed by any of them,
44 Nyɔnu sia va te ɖe eŋu le emegbe, eye wòka asi eƒe awu to, enumake eƒe ʋusisidɔ la tɔ.
and having come to Him behind, she touched the hem of His garment: and immediately the issue of blood ceased.
45 Ke Yesu trɔ bia be, “Ame kae ka asi ŋunye?” Ame aɖeke melɔ̃ be yee o. Ke Petro gblɔ nɛ be, “Aƒetɔ ameha la mimi wò ɖo, eye wote ɖe ŋuwò kpokploe, aleke wɔ nàbia be ame kae ka asi ye ŋu?”
And Jesus said, Who is the one having touched me? And all denying, Peter and the disciples with Him said, The multitudes crowd thee and press upon thee, and dost thou say, Who is the one having touched me?
46 Yesu ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Gbeɖe, ame aɖe ɖoe koŋ ka asi ŋunye, elabena ŋusẽ si le menye la ƒe ɖe do le menye.”
And Jesus said, Some one touched me: for I know the power went out from me.
47 Nyɔnu si wɔ nenem nu sia la kpɔe be nu si yewɔ la le nyanya na Yesu eya ta etsɔ vɔvɔ̃ kple dzodzo nyanyanya va dze klo ɖe eŋkume hegblɔ nu si ta wòka asi eŋu kple ale si wòkpɔ dɔyɔyɔ enumake la nɛ.
And the woman seeing that she was not concealed, came trembling, and falling down before Him, proclaimed on account of what cause she touched Him, in the presence of all the people, and how she was healed immediately.
48 Yesu gblɔ nɛ be, “Vinyɔnu, wò xɔse da gbe le ŋuwò. Heyi le ŋutifafa me.”
And He said to her, Be of good cheer, daughter; thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
49 Le esime Yesu nɔ nu ƒom na nyɔnu la la, ame aɖe tso ƒuƒoƒemegã Yairo ƒe aƒe me va do kple nya sia be via nyɔnuvi sue la ku. Ame dɔdɔa gblɔ na Yairo be, “Viwò la ku xoxo eya ta viɖe aɖeke mele eme be nàgaɖe fu na Nufiala la o.”
And He yet speaking, a certain one comes from the house of the chief ruler of the synagogue, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; trouble not the Teacher:
50 Esi Yesu se nya si amea tsɔ vɛ la, egblɔ na ɖevia fofo be, “Mègavɔ̃ o! Wò ya xɔ se ko, ekema viwòa agagbɔ agbe.”
and Jesus hearing, responded to him, saying, Fear not: only believe, and she shall be saved.
51 Esi woɖo aƒea me la, Yesu de se be ame aɖeke nagage ɖe xɔ si me ɖevia le kple ye o negbe Petro, Yohanes, Yakobo kple ɖevia fofo kple dadaa ko.
And having come to the house, He did not suffer any to enter except Peter, John, and James, and the father and mother of the child.
52 Aƒea me ŋutɔ yɔ fũu kple konyifala siwo nɔ avi fam. Yesu gblɔ na wo be, “Midzudzɔ avia. Ɖevia meku o, alɔ̃ ko dɔm wòle!”
And they were all weeping, and wailing over her: and He said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth.
53 Nya sia ɖi kokoe na ameawo, elabena wonya nyuie be ɖevia ku.
And they hooted at Him, knowing that she was dead.
54 Azɔ Yesu zɔ ɖe ɖevia dzi le xɔa me, eye wòlé eƒe alɔnu heyɔe gblɔ be, “Vinye tsi tsitre.”
And having put all out, taking her by the hand, He spoke, saying, Child, arise.
55 Eye eƒe gbɔgbɔ gagbugbɔ, eye enumake wòtsi tsitre kpla. Yesu gblɔ na ameawo be, “Mina nanee wòaɖu!”
And her spirit returned, and she stood up immediately. And He commanded that something should be given to her to eat.
56 Dzi dzɔ ɖevia dzilawo ŋutɔ. Ke Yesu de se na wo vevie be womegagblɔ nu si dzɔ la na ame aɖeke o.
And her parents were delighted: and He commanded them to tell no one that which had taken place.
