Mateo 10
1 Yesu yɔ eƒe nusrɔ̃la wuieveawo ƒo ƒu, eye wòna ŋusẽ wo be woanya gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo le amewo me, eye woada dɔ sia dɔ ƒomevi.
And calling His twelve disciples, He gave them power over unclean spirits, so as to cast them out, and heal every disease, and every malady.
2 Eƒe nusrɔ̃la wuieveawo ƒe ŋkɔwoe nye: Simɔn (ame si woyɔna hã be Petro) kple nɔvia Andrea, Yakobo kple nɔvia Yohanes, ame siwo nye Zebedeo ƒe viwo,
And these are the names of the apostles: first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother;
3 Filipo kple Bartolomeo; Toma kple Mateo, si nye nudzɔla; Yakobo, Alfeo ƒe vi, kple Tadeo;
Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the publican; James the son of Alpheus, and Lebbeus called Thaddeus;
4 Simɔn, ame si nye Zelotetɔ kple Yuda Iskariɔt, ame si va de Yesu asi.
Simon the Zealot; and Judas Iscariot, the one also having betrayed Him.
5 Yesu dɔ eƒe nusrɔ̃la wuieveawo kple gbedeasi sia be, “Migayi Trɔ̃subɔlawo kple Samariatɔwo gbɔ o,
And Jesus sent out the twelve, commanding them, Go not in the way of the Gentiles, and enter not into a city of the Samaritans.
6 ke boŋ miyi Israelvi siwo nye Mawu ƒe alẽ bubuwo la ko gbɔ.
But go ye rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
7 Miyi miagblɔ na wo be dziƒofiaɖuƒe la ɖo vɔ.
And going, preach, saying, That the kingdom of the heavens is at hand.
8 Mida gbe le dɔnɔwo ŋu, migbɔ agbe ame kukuwo, mina anyidzelawo ŋuti nakɔ, eye minya gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo do goe le amewo me. Mina nu amewo faa abe ale si wona mi ene!
Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons: freely you did receive, freely give.
9 “Migatsɔ ga aɖeke de miaƒe gabusuwo me na miaƒe mɔzɔzɔ o,
Take not gold, nor silver, nor copper in your girdles;
10 migatsɔ mɔzɔkotoku kple awu bubuwo hã ɖe asi o, eye migatsɔ afɔkpa alo atizɔti teti hã o, elabena dɔwɔla dze eƒe nuɖuɖu.
nor valise for your journey, neither two coats, nor sandals, nor staff: for the laborer is worthy of his food.
11 Nenye be miege ɖe du alo kɔƒe aɖe me la, midi mawuvɔ̃la aɖe mianɔ eƒe aƒe me va se ɖe esime miadzo ayi du bubu me.
And into whatsoever city or village you may enter, investigate who in it is worthy; and there abide until you may go hence.
12 Nenye be miege ɖe aƒe aɖe me la, mido gbe na ameawo, eye miabia dzeƒe ɖokuibɔbɔtɔe.
And going into a house, salute it.
13 Nenye be aƒea me tɔwo nye mawuvɔ̃lawo vavã la, miyra wo, ke ne womele nenema o la, miaƒe ŋutifafa agagbugbɔ ava mia dzi.
And if the house may be worthy, let your peace come on it: but if it may be unworthy, let your peace return unto you.
14 Ne du aɖe me tɔwo alo aƒe aɖe me tɔwo mexɔ mi o, eye womeɖo to mi o la, miʋuʋu miaƒe afɔke ɖe teƒea ne miadzo.
And whosoever may not receive you, nor hear your words, going out from that house or city, shake off the dust from your feet.
15 Vavã mele egblɔm na mi be, anɔ bɔbɔe na Sodom kple Gomoranyigba le ʋɔnudrɔ̃gbe la wu ame siawo ƒomevi.
Truly I say unto you, It will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.
16 “Mele mia dɔm abe alẽwo ene ɖo ɖe amegaxi nyanyrawo dome. Midze aye abe dawo ene, eye midza abe akpakpawo ene.
Behold, I send you forth like sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
17 Mikpɔ mia ɖokuiwo dzi nyuie le amewo ŋuti! Elabena woalé mi, adrɔ̃ ʋɔnu mi, eye woaƒo mi le woƒe ƒuƒoƒewo.
Beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the sanhedrins, and will beat you in their synagogues;
18 Ɛ̃, le tanye la, woadrɔ̃ ʋɔnu mi le fiawo kple mɔmefiawo ƒe ŋkume. Ke esia anye mɔnukpɔkpɔ na mi be miagblɔ nyanyui la na wo kple ame siwo menye Yudatɔwo o la katã.
and they will lead you before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony unto them and the Gentiles.
19 “Nenye be wolé mi, kplɔ mi yi ʋɔnu la, migatsi dzi le nu si miagblɔ ŋuti o, elabena woade nya si tututu wòle be miagblɔ la susu me na mi le ɣeyiɣi ma me.
And when they may deliver you, be not solicitous how or what you may speak: for it will be given unto you in that hour what you may say.
20 Elabena menye miawo ŋutɔe aƒo nu o, ke boŋ mia Fofo si le dziƒo la ƒe Gbɔgbɔe le nu ƒo ge to mia dzi.
For you are not those speaking, but the Spirit of your Father is speaking in you.
21 “Mele egblɔm na mi be nɔvi ahe nɔvi ade ku me, eye vi fofo ade eya ŋutɔ via asi. Ɖeviwo atsi tsitre ɖe wo dzilawo ŋuti, eye woahe wo ade ku me.
And brother will deliver brother unto death, and the father the child: and children will rise up against parents, and put them to death.
22 Ame sia ame alé fu mi, elabena mienye tɔnyewo. Ke mia dometɔ siwo anɔ tsitre sesĩe va se ɖe nuwuwu la akpɔ ɖeɖe.
And you will be hated by all on account of my name: but he that persevereth unto the end, the same shall be saved.
23 “Nenye be woti mia yome le du aɖe me la, misi yi du bubu me! Vavã mele egblɔm na mi bena, nye Amegbetɔ Vi, matrɔ agbɔ hafi miawu tsatsa le Israel duwo katã me nu.
And when they may persecute you in this city, fly to another: for truly I say unto you, You may not complete the cities of Israel, until the Son of man may come.
24 Minyae be sukuvi menyaa nu wu eƒe nufiala o. Nenema ke subɔla mewua eƒe aƒetɔ o.
The disciple is not above his teacher, nor the servant above his lord.
25 Ne nya aɖe dzɔ ɖe nufiala aɖe dzi la, eƒe sukuvi la hã dzi wòdzɔ ɖo. Nenema ke ne nya aɖe dzɔ ɖe Aƒetɔ aɖe dzi la, eƒe subɔvi hã le eme, eye esi wònye be woyɔ nye, Aƒea dzi kpɔla be Belzebul ɖe, aleke woayɔ miawoe?
It is sufficient for the disciple that he may be as his teacher, and the servant, as his lord: if they call the landlord Beelzebul, how much more the inmates of his house?
26 “Migavɔ̃ ame siwo ado ŋɔdzi na mi la o, elabena ŋkeke li gbɔna esi dzi woƒe adzameɖoɖo vɔ̃wo adze le gaglãgbe, eye ame sia ame akpɔ nyateƒe la adze sii.
Therefore fear them not; for there is nothing hidden, that shall not be revealed; nothing secret, that shall not be known.
27 “Nya siwo gblɔm mele na mi le viviti me la, migblɔ wo le kekeli me. Ne mede gbe to me na mi la, miɖe gbeƒãe le xɔwo tame.
What I say unto you in the darkness, speak ye in the light: and whatsoever you hear in the ear, proclaim upon the housetops.
28 “Migavɔ̃ na ame siwo ate ŋu awu miaƒe ŋutilã, ke womate ŋu awu miaƒe gbɔgbɔ o la gbeɖe o! Mivɔ̃ Mawu ɖeka hɔ̃ɔ, ame si si ŋusẽ le be wòawu ŋutilã kple gbɔgbɔ la siaa le dzomavɔ me. (Geenna g1067)
Be not afraid of those who kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but fear ye, rather him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. (Geenna g1067)
29 Nenie nye akpakpa ɖeka ƒe home? Menye sidi ɖeka pɛ koe oa? Ke wo dometɔ ɖeka pɛ hã meli si dzena ɖe anyigba dzi si mia Fofo la mekpɔna o.
Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? and one of them will not fall to the ground without your Father.
30 Miaƒe taɖa katã gɔ̃ hã ƒe xexlẽme le nyanya me na Mawu,
But the hairs of your head are all numbered.
31 eya ta migavɔ̃ o; miawo la, miexɔ asi na Mawu tsɔ wu atsutsrɔewo.
Then fear not; you are of more value than many sparrows.
32 “Ame sia ame si aʋu menye le dutoƒo la, nye hã maʋu eme le Fofo la gbɔ le dziƒo.
Therefore every one who shall confess me before the people, I will also confess him before my Father, who is in the heavens.
33 Ke ne ame aɖe gbe nu le gbɔnye le dutoƒo la, nye hã magbe nu le egbɔ le Fofonye gbɔ le dziƒo.
But whosoever may deny me before the people, I will also deny him before my Father who is in the heavens.
34 “Migabu xaa be meva be mahe ŋutifafa va anyigba dzi o. Nyemeva be mahe ŋutifafa vɛ o, ke boŋ yi metsɔ vɛ,
Think not that I came to send peace on the earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
35 elabena meva be mana, “‘ŋutsu natso ɖe fofoa ŋu, vinyɔnu natso ɖe dadaa ŋu, eye lɔ̃xoyɔvi natso ɖe lɔ̃xoa ŋu.
For I came to divide a man against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law:
36 Ame ƒe futɔwo anye eya ŋutɔ ƒe aƒemetɔwo.’
and the enemies of a man will be the inmates of his own house.
37 “Nenye be mielɔ̃ mia dadawo kple mia fofowo tsɔ wum la, ekema miedze be mianye tɔnyewo o, nenema ke ne mielɔ̃ mia vinyɔnuwo kple mia viŋutsuwo tsɔ wum la, miedze be mianye tɔnyewo o.
He that loveth father and mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.
38 Ne ame aɖe gbe metsɔ eƒe atitsoga dze yonyeme o la, eya hã medze anye tɔnye o.
Whosoever does not take his cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me.
39 “Nenye be ame aɖe ku ɖe eƒe agbe ŋuti vevie la, abui, ke ne ame aɖe tsɔ eƒe agbe na ɖe tanye la, akpɔe le nuwuwua.
The one having found his soul shall lose it; and the one losing his soul for my sake shall find it.
40 “Ne ame aɖe xɔ mi nyuie la, nyee wòxɔ, eye ne ame aɖe xɔm la, exɔ Mawu si dɔm ɖa la.
The one receiving you will receive me, and the one receiving me will receive Him that sent me.
41 Nenye be miexɔ Nyagblɔɖila aɖe be enye Mawu ƒe ame la, woana fetu si ƒomevi woana Nyagblɔɖila la ke miawo hã, eye nenye be miexɔ ame nyui siwo vɔ̃a Mawu le woƒe dzadzɛnyenye ta la, woana fetu si woana woawo hã mi.
The one receiving a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive the reward of a prophet; and the one receiving a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive the reward of a righteous man.
42 Ne ame aɖe ana tsi fafɛ kplu ɖeka ame gblɔe siawo dometɔ ɖeka, be enye nye nusrɔ̃la ta la, mele egblɔm na mi le nyateƒe me be mabu fetu si wòaxɔ la o.”
And whosoever may give one of these little ones only a cup of cold water, in the name of a disciple, truly I say unto you, He can not lose his reward.
