1 Eva eme be ame geɖewo gava ƒo ƒu ɖe Yesu ŋu esime wònɔ nu fiam le ƒuta. Le ameawo ƒe agbɔsɔsɔ ta la, ege ɖe ʋu aɖe me hafi nɔ nua fiam.
And he began agayne to teache by the seesyde. And there gadered to gedder vnto him moche people so greatly yt he entred into a ship and sate in the see and all the people was by the seeside on the shoore.
2 Efia nu geɖe amewo to lododowo me.
And he taught them many thynges in similitudes and sayde vnto them in his doctrine:
3 Egblɔ na wo be, “Miɖo to miasee! Agbledela aɖe yi nuku wu ge ɖe eƒe agble me.
Herken to. Beholde There wet out a sower to sowe.
4 Nuku siwo wòwu la ƒe ɖewo ge ɖe mɔto, eye xeviwo va fɔ wo mi.
And it fortuned as he sowed that some fell by the waye syde and the fowles of the ayre came and devoured it vp.
5 Ɖewo hã ge ɖe kpenyigba dzi, afi si ke sue aɖe ko nɔ; nuku siawo tsi vlɔvlɔvlɔ,
Some fell on stony grounde where it had not moche erth: and by and by sprange vp because it had not deepth of erth:
6 gake esi ŋdɔ ʋu ɖe wo dzi la, woyrɔ, eye woku, elabena woƒe kewo mede to o.
but as sone as the sunne was vp it caught heet and because it had not rotynge wyddred awaye.
7 Nuku bubuwo ge ɖe ŋuwo me, eye esi wonɔ tsitsim la, ŋuawo vu tsyɔ wo dzi ale be womete ŋu tse ku aɖeke o.
And some fell amonge the thornes and the thornes grewe vp and choked it so that it gave no frute.
8 Ke nuku aɖewo ya ge ɖe anyigba nyui dzi, eye wotse ku blaetɔ̃, eye ɖewo tse blaade, eye ɖewo hã tse alafa.”
And some fell vpon good grounde and dyd yelde frute that sproge and grewe and brought forthe: some thirty folde some sixtie folde and some an hundred folde.
9 Azɔ Yesu gblɔ na wo be, “Ame si to senu li na la nesee.”
And he sayde vnto them: he that hath eares to heare let him heare.
10 Le esia megbe la, esi Yesu kple eƒe nusrɔ̃la wuieveawo kpakple nusrɔ̃la bubuwo susɔ la, nusrɔ̃lawo biae be, “Lododo sia gɔme ɖe?”
And when he was alone they yt were aboute him with ye. xii. axed him of ye similitude.
11 Yesu ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Miawo la, wona mɔ mi be mianya mawufiaɖuƒe la ƒe nu ɣaɣlawo, ke woɣla esiawo ɖe ame siwo le fiaɖuƒe la godo to lododo me.
And he sayde vnto the. To you it is geve to knowe the mistery of the kyngdome of God. But vnto them that are wt out shall all thinges be done in similitudes:
12 Miɖo ŋku edzi be, “Togbɔ be wokpɔa nu, eye wosea nu hã la, womele nu gɔme se ge alo atrɔ ɖe Mawu gbɔ; be wòatsɔ woƒe nu vɔ̃wo ake wo o.”
yt when they se they shall se and not discerne: and when they heare they shall heare and not vnderstonde: leste at any tyme they shulde tourne and their synnes shuld be forgeve the.
13 Ale Yesu gblɔ na wo bena, “Ke nenye be miawo hã miete ŋu se lododo sia gɔme o ɖe, aleke miawɔ ase esiwo mava do emegbe la gɔme?
And he sayde vnto the: Perceave ye not this similitude? how then shulde ye vnderstonde all other similitudes?
14 Agbledela si ŋu meƒo nu tsoe lae nye ame si gblɔa mawunya na amewo.
The sower soweth ye worde.
15 Mɔto, afi si nuku aɖewo kaka ɖo lae nye ame siwo ƒe dziwo ku atri. Ne wose mawunya la, Satana va te wo kpɔ ko la, woŋlɔa nya la be enumake.
And they that are by the wayes syde where the worde is sowen are they to whom assone as they have herde it Satha cometh immediatly and takith awaye the worde that was sowe in their hertes.
16 Kpenyigba si dzi nuku aɖewo ge ɖo lae nye ame siwo sea mawunya la, eye woxɔnɛ kple dzidzɔ,
And likewise they that are sowen on the stonye groude are they: which when they have harde the worde at once receave it wt gladnes
17 gake abe nuku siwo miena ɖe anyigba ma ƒomevi dzi ene la, woƒe kewo medea to o, eye togbɔ be wotsina vlɔvlɔvlɔ hã la, ne yometiti va ko la, wogbɔdzɔna.
yet have no rotes in them selves and so endure but a tyme: and anone as trouble and persecucion aryseth for ye wordes sake they fall immediatly.
18 Ŋunyigba si dzi nuku aɖewo ge ɖo lae nye ame siwo sea nyanyui la, woxɔnɛ ɖe woƒe dziwo me,
And they that are sowe amoge the thornes are soche as heare ye worde:
19 gake xexe sia me ƒe dzitsitsi ɖe kesinɔnuwo ŋu, hloloetsotso na dzidzedzekpɔkpɔ kple xexea me ƒe nudzroame geɖewo zua ŋu vuna tsyɔa Mawu ƒe Nya si wose la dzi, metsea ku aɖeke o. (aiōn g165)
and ye care of this worlde and ye disseytfulnes of ryches and the lustes of other thinges entre in and choocke ye worde and it is made vnfrutfull. (aiōn g165)
20 Azɔ anyigba nyui lae nye ame siwo xɔa Mawu ƒe Nya la le nyateƒe me, eye wòtsea ku geɖe na Mawu, blaetɔ̃, blaade alo alafa ɖeka gɔ̃ hã.”
And those that weare sowe in good grounde are they that heare the worde and receave it and bringe forth frute some thirty folde some sixty folde some an hundred folde.
21 Yesu yi edzi bia nusrɔ̃lawo be, “Nenye be ame aɖe si akaɖi ɖe, ɖe wòtsɔa nu tsyɔa edzi alo danɛ ɖe abati te mahã? Alo menye akaɖiti dzie wodanɛ ɖo be wòaklẽ na amewo o mahã?
And he sayde vnto them: is ye candle lighted to be put vnder a busshell or vnder ye table and not rather to be put on a cadelstick?
22 Nu siwo katã le ɣaɣla fifia la, ava dze le gaglãgbe gbe ɖeka.
For there is nothinge so prevy that shall not be opened: nether so secreet but that it shall come abroade.
23 Ne to senu li na mi la, misee!
Yf eny man have eares to heare let him heare.
24 Mikpɔ egbɔ be miewɔ ɖe nu siwo miese la dzi, elabena ne miele esia wɔm la, ekema miase nu siwo katã mefia mi la gɔme.
And he sayde vnto them: take hede what ye heare. With what measure ye mete with the same shall it be measured vnto you agayne. And vnto you that heare shall more be geve.
25 Ame si si nu le la, eyae woana nui, eye ame si si nu mele o la, woaxɔ sue si le esi la gɔ̃ hã le esi.”
For vnto him yt hath shall it be geven: and from him that hath not shalbe taken awaye even that he hath.
26 “Lododo bubu si fia ale si mawufiaɖuƒe la le lae nye esi: ‘Agbledela aɖe ƒã nuku ɖe eƒe abɔ me, eye wòdzo,
And he sayde: so is the kyngdome of God even as yf a man shuld sowe seed in ye groude
27 ke le ŋkeke aɖewo megbe la, nuku la ŋutɔ tsi le eɖokui si, eye agbledela la mewɔ dɔ aɖeke o, elabena anyigba la ŋutɔ nyo xoxo.
and shulde slepe and ryse vp night and daye: and the seede shuld springe and growe vp he not ware.
28 Gbã la, aŋgba fɛ̃wo do tso anyigba ƒe tu me, emegbe la, nuku la ƒo se, eye mlɔeba la, etse ku.
For ye erth bringeth forthe frute of her silfe: fyrst the blade then the eares after that full corne in the eares.
29 Ke esi kutsetse la ɖi la, agbledela la yi agble la me kple eƒe nuxahɛ, eye wòxa nuku la.’”
And as sone as the frute is brought forth anone he throusteth in ye sykell because the hervest is come.
30 Yesu yi edzi bia wo be, “Aleke gɔ̃ maɖe ale si mawufiaɖuƒe la le la afia mie. Lododo ka tututu matsɔ asɔ kplii?
And he sayde: where vnto shall we lyke the kyngdome of God? or with what copareson shall we copare it?
31 Mawufiaɖuƒe la le abe atiku suetɔ kekeake ene le anyigba dzi.
It is lyke a grayne of mustard seed which when it is sowe in the erth is the leest of all seedes that be in the erth:
32 Togbɔ be ele alea hã la, ne woƒãe la, etsina zua ati dzɔatsu le abɔmetiwo katã dome, eye wòɖea alɔ legbe siwo me xeviwo wɔa atɔ ɖo hekpɔa gbɔɖeme le wo me.”
but after that it is sowen it groweth vp and is greatest of all yerbes: and bereth greate brauches so that ye fowles of the ayre maye dwell vnder the shadowe of it.
33 Yesu wɔ lododo vovovowo ŋu dɔ tsɔ fia nu amewo. Ewɔ esiwo gɔme amewo ate ŋu ase la ŋu dɔ.
And with many soche similitudes he preached the worde vnto the after as they myght heare it.
34 Le nyateƒe me la, ne Yesu le nu fiam le dutoƒo la, lododo sɔŋ ko ŋu dɔ wòwɔna, ke emegbe ne eya kple eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo ɖe aga la, eɖea wo gɔme na wo.
And with out similitude spake he no thinge vnto them. But when they were aparte he expounded all thinges to his disciples.
35 Esi ɣe nɔ to ɖom la, Yesu gblɔ na eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo be, “Mina míatso ƒu la ayi eƒe go evelia dzi.”
And the same daye when even was come he sayde vnto them: let vs passe over vnto the other syde.
36 Eya kple eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo ge ɖe ʋu aɖe me, eye wodze mɔ, hegble ameha la ɖe ƒua ta, ke ʋu bubuwo hã dze wo yome.
And they lefte the people and toke him even as he was in the shyp. And ther were also with him other shippes.
37 Esi wozɔ yina sẽe la, ahom sesẽ aɖe de asi tutu me. Esia na be ƒutsotsoewo ŋe dze ʋu la me ale gbegbe be esusɔ vie ko ʋu la nanyrɔ.
And ther arose a great storme of wynde and dasshed ye waves into the ship so that it was full.
38 Togbɔ be esiawo katã nɔ edzi yim hã la, Yesu ya ziɔ suɖui le ʋua ta henɔ alɔ̃ dɔm dziɖeɖitɔe. Nusrɔ̃lawo ʋuʋui sesĩe wònyɔ. Wobiae vɔvɔ̃tɔe be, “Nufiala, mètsɔ ɖeke le eme be míele nyɔnyrɔm oa?”
And he was in the sterne a slepe on a pelowe. And they awoke him and sayde to him: Master carest thou not yt we perisshe?
39 Yesu blu ɖe ya la ta enumake, eye wòɖe gbe na ƒu la hã be, “Zi ɖoɖoe!” Ya sesẽ la tɔ enumake, eye ƒu la zi ɖoɖoe toŋtoŋtoŋ.
And he rose vp and rebuked the wynde and sayde vnto the see: peace and be still. And the winde alayed and ther folowed a greate calme.
40 Azɔ etrɔ ɖe nusrɔ̃lawo ŋu bia wo be, “Nu ka ta mievɔ̃ alea gbegbe ɖo? Ekema va se ɖe fifia hã la, miexɔ dzinye se oa?”
And he sayde vnto them: why are ye so fearfull? How is it that ye have no fayth?
41 Vɔvɔ̃ ɖo nusrɔ̃lawo ŋutɔ. Woƒe mo wɔ yaa, eye wogblɔ na wo nɔewo be, “Ame ka gɔ̃e nye esia, be yawo kple ƒutsotsoewo hã ɖoa toe?”
And they feared excedingly and sayde one to another: what felowe is this? For booth winde and see obey him.
