Mateo 9
1 Yesu gatrɔ ge ɖe ʋua me, eye wòtso ƒua va Kapernaum, si nye wo dedu me.
And he ascended (into) the ship, and went over, and came to his city.
2 Eɖo afi ma eteƒe medidi hafi ame aɖewo kɔ ŋutsu aɖe si le lãmetutudɔ lém la ɖe aba dzi vɛ o. Yesu kpɔ be ameawo ƒe xɔse de to ŋutɔ, eya ta egblɔ na dɔnɔ la be, “Vinye, wò dzi nedze eme, elabena wotsɔ wò nu vɔ̃wo ke wò.”
And they brought to him a paralytic lying on a bed; and Jeshu saw their faith, and said to the paralytic, Be comforted, my son, thy sins are forgiven thee.
3 Yudatɔwo ƒe agbalẽfiala aɖewo nɔ afi ma se nya siwo do le Yesu nu la, eye wogblɔ na wo nɔewo be, “Nu ka! Ame sia gblɔ busunya.”
But men from among the scribes said within themselves, This blasphemeth.
4 Yesu nya nu si nɔ woƒe susu me, eya ta ebia wo be, “Nu ka ta miele nu baɖa siawo ƒomevi susum ɖo?
But Jeshu knew their reasonings, and said to them, Why reason ye evil in your hearts?
5 Mibu eŋuti kpɔ be kae le bɔbɔe wu, be woagblɔ na ame sia be, ‘Wotsɔ wò nu vɔ̃wo ke wò’ alo woagblɔ nɛ be, ‘Tso nàzɔ azɔli?’”
For which is easier, to say, Forgiven are thy sins, or to say, Arise, walk?
6 Be miadze sii be ŋusẽ le nye Amegbetɔ Vi la si le anyigba sia dzi be matsɔ nu vɔ̃wo ake amewo le anyigba dzi ŋuti la, Yesu trɔ ɖe lãmetututɔ la gbɔ gblɔ nɛ be, “Tsi tsitre nàŋlɔ wò aba ne nàzɔ ayi aƒe me!”
But that ye may know that authority hath the Son of man in the earth to remit sins, he saith to him-the paralytic, -Arise, lift up thy bed, and go to thy house:
7 Ame la tsi tsitre enumake, eye wòfɔ eƒe nuwo heyi aƒe me.
and he arose (and) went to his house.
8 Nyateƒe, vɔvɔ̃ gã aɖe dze ameha blibo la dzi, elabena Yesu wɔ nukunu sia le woawo ŋutɔ ƒe ŋkume wokpɔ, eye wokafu Mawu be wòna ŋusẽ triakɔ sia tɔgbi amegbetɔ!
When the assembly saw this, they feared, and glorified Aloha who had given such power as this unto men.
9 Esi Yesu nɔ tsa ɖim le dua me la, eva ke ɖe dugadzɔla aɖe si woyɔna be Mateo la ŋu wònɔ anyi ɖe dugadzɔƒe. Yesu yɔe gblɔ nɛ be, “Va dze yonyeme ne nàzu nye nusrɔ̃la.” Mateo tso enumake, eye wòdze Yesu yome.
AND when Jeshu had passed thence, he saw a man who was sitting at the place of the tribute-takers, whose name was Mathai; and he said to him, Come after me; and he arose and went after him.
10 Gbe ma gbe fiẽ la, Mateo kpe Yesu kple eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo be woava ɖu nu le yeƒe aƒe me. Dugadzɔlawo kple nu vɔ̃ wɔla bubuwo hã nɔ ame kpekpeawo dome.
And while he reclined in the house, there came to him many tribute-gatherers and sinners, and reclined with Jeshu and with his disciples.
11 Farisitɔwo kpɔ esia, ale wobia Yesu ƒe nusrɔ̃lawo be, “Nu ka ta miaƒe nufiala dea ha kple dugadzɔlawo kple nu vɔ̃ wɔlawo, eye woɖua nu kple wo hã ɖo?”
And when the Pharishee saw (it), they say to his disciples, Why doth your master eat with tribute-takers and sinners?
12 Yesu se nya la, eye wòɖo eŋu na wo gblɔ be, “Ame siwo mele dɔ lém o la mehiã atikewɔla o, ke boŋ ame siwo le dɔ lém lae hiãe.
But Jeshu, when he heard (it), said to them, The healthful have no need for the physician, but they who are diseased.
13 Ke miyi miasrɔ̃ nu si gblɔm mawunya sia le la be, ‘Nublanuikpɔkpɔe medi, ke menye vɔsa o.’ Nyemeva be mayɔ ame dzɔdzɔewo o, ke boŋ nu vɔ̃ wɔlawo.”
Go, learn what that is: -" I require mercy, and not sacrifice; " for I am not come to call the righteous, but the sinners.
14 Gbe ɖeka la, Yohanes Mawutsidetanamela ƒe nusrɔ̃lawo va Yesu gbɔ va biae be, “Nu ka ta wò nusrɔ̃lawo metsia nu dɔna abe ale si mí kple Farisitɔwo míewɔna ene o ɖo?”
Then drew nigh to him the disciples of Juchanon, and said, Why do we and the Pharishee fast much, and thy disciples fast not?
15 Yesu hã bia wo be, “Ɖe wòle be ŋugbetɔsrɔ̃ la xɔlɔ̃wo nanɔ konyi fam, atsi nu adɔ le esime wòle wo gbɔa? Ɣeyiɣi li gbɔna esime woakplɔe adzoe le wo gbɔ, eye le ɣe ma ɣi me la, woagbe nuɖuɖu atsi nu adɔ.
Jeshu said to them, Neither can the sons of the marriage-chamber fast while the bridegroom is with them: but the days are coming when the bridegroom shall be taken up from them, and then shall they fast.
16 “Womate ŋu atsɔ avɔnuɖeɖi yeye aka avɔ vuvu o. Ne wowɔe alea la, avɔ yeye la aho ɖa le teƒea, eye teƒe si vuvu la akeke ɖe edzi wu.
No man inserteth a piece of new cloth upon an old garment, lest he should take away its fulness from that garment, and the rent be greater.
17 Nenema ke womekɔa aha yeye hã ɖe lãgbalẽgolo xoxo me o. Ne wowɔ esia la, aha yeye la ƒe ŋusẽ awɔe be lãgbalẽgolo la nawo, eye aha la kple goe la katã dome agblẽ. Lãgbalẽgolo yeye ko me woate ŋu akɔ aha yeye ɖo. Ekema aha la kple lãgbalẽgolo la katã woanɔ dedie.”
Neither do they pour new wine into old bottles, that the bottles may not be broken, and the wine be spilled, and the bottles perish. But they pour new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.
18 Esime Yesu nɔ nya siawo gblɔm la, Yudatɔwo ƒe ƒuƒoƒe ƒe amegã aɖe va dze klo ɖe eƒe ŋkume hede ta agu nɛ. Egblɔ na Yesu be, “Vinye nyɔnuvi ku fifi laa, gake mexɔe se be àte ŋu ana wòagagbɔ agbe nenye be èva ka asi eŋu ko.”
WHILE he spake these words with them, a certain chief came, drew near, worshipped him, and said, My daughter is now dead; but come, lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live!
19 Yesu kple eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo dze mɔ ɖo ta amegã la ƒe aƒe me enumake.
And Jeshu arose, with his disciples, and went after him.
20 Esime wonɔ mɔa dzi la, nyɔnu aɖe si nɔ ʋusisidɔ lém ƒe wuieve sɔŋ la va ka asi eƒe awu to,
And, behold, a woman whose blood had flowed twelve years, came behind him, and touched the edge of his vestment.
21 elabena egblɔ le eɖokui me be, “Nenye be meka asi eƒe awu to teti ko la, nye lãme asẽ.”
For she was saying within herself, If I touch but his garment, I shall be healed.
22 Yesu trɔ ɖe eŋu gblɔ nɛ be, “Vinyɔnuvi, wò dzi nedze eme! Wò xɔse la da gbe le ŋuwò.” Tso gbe ma gbe ko la, nyɔnu la ƒe dɔa vɔ nɛ keŋ.
But Jeshu turned and seeth her, and said to her, Be comforted, my daughter, thy faith hath saved thee. And the woman was healed from that very hour.
23 Esi Yesu va ɖo amegã la ƒe aƒe me la, ekpɔ be amewo nɔ avi fam hoo, eye wonɔ kuteƒehawo hã dzim.
And Jeshu came to the ruler's house, and saw the minstrels and the crowds which were making a tumult.
24 Yesu gblɔ be, “Mina ame siawo katã nado go le xɔa me, elabena ɖevi la meku o, alɔ̃ ko dɔm wòle.” Ame siwo se nya sia la ɖu fewu le eŋu, eye ɖewo hã koe.
And he said to them, Retire; for the damsel is not dead, but asleep. And they laughed at him.
25 Wonya ameha la do goe mlɔeba. Yesu yi afi si wokɔ ɖevi la mlɔe la, eye wòlé eƒe alɔnu. Nyɔnuvi la nyɔ enumake; eti kpo ɖi le aba la dzi, eye eƒe lãme sẽ.
And when he had put forth the crowds, he entered, and took her by the hand; and the damsel arose.
26 Nukunu sia kaka ɖe nuto blibo la katã me le ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe ko megbe.
And the rumour of this went forth through all that land.
27 Esime Yesu do go le aƒea me yina la, ŋkuagbãtɔ eve kplɔe ɖo henɔ ɣli dom be, “O, Fia David ƒe Vi, kpɔ nublanui na mí.”
AND when Jeshu had passed thence, two blind men clave to him, and besought him, and said, Have compassion on us, Son of David!
28 Wokplɔe ɖo yi aƒe si me wòge ɖo la. Tete Yesu trɔ ɖe wo ŋu bia wo be, “Miexɔe se be mate ŋu aʋu ŋku na mia?” Woɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Ɛ̃, Aƒetɔ.”
And when he had come into the house, these blind men were brought to him. Jeshu saith to them, Believe you that I am able to do this? They say to him, Yes, our Lord!
29 Ale Yesu ka asi woƒe ŋkuwo ŋu hegblɔ be, “Ava eme na mi abe ale si miexɔe se ene.”
Then he touched their eyes, and said, As you believe be it to you.
30 Enumake woƒe ŋkuwo ʋu, eye wode asi nukpɔkpɔ me nyuie. Yesu de se na wo vevie bena, womegagblɔ nu si yewɔ na wo la na ame aɖeke o.
And immediately their eyes were opened. And Jeshu forbad them and said, Beware lest any man know.
31 Ke ameawo mewɔ ɖe Yesu ƒe didi dzi o; esi wodo ɖe ablɔ dzi ko la, wokaka nu si wòwɔ na wo la, eye eƒe ŋkɔ ɖi hoo le nuto blibo la me.
But they went forth and spread the report of it through all that land.
32 Esi Yesu nɔ dzodzom le afi ma la, wokplɔ ŋutsu aɖe si me gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ nɔ, eye metea ŋu ƒoa nu o la vɛ nɛ.
And when Jeshu went forth, they brought to him a dumb person in whom was a demon.
33 Yesu nya gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ la do goe le ame la me, eye wòde asi nuƒoƒo me enumake. Nu sia wɔ nuku na ameha la ŋutɔ, ale wogblɔ na wo nɔewo be, yewomekpɔ esia tɔgbi kpɔ le Israel o.
And when the demon had gone out, the dumb spake; and the multitudes were astonished, and said, Never was it thus seen in Isroel.
34 Ke Farisitɔwo ya gblɔ be, “Nu si ta wòtea ŋu nyaa gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃woe ɖo lae nye be, gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo ƒe fia la le eya ŋutɔ me.”
But the Pharishee said, By the chief of the devils he casteth out devils.
35 Yesu tsa le kɔƒe kple du siwo le nuto ma me la kpe ɖo. Enɔ mawunya gblɔm le Yudatɔwo ƒe ƒuƒoƒewo, eye wònɔ gbeƒã ɖem mawufiaɖuƒe la ƒe nyanyui la hã, eye afi sia afi si wòyi la, edaa gbe le dɔ ƒomevi vovovo lélawo ŋu.
And Jeshu itinerated in all their cities and villages, and taught in their assemblies, and preached the gospel of the kingdom, and healed all diseases and all pains.
36 Ameawo ƒe nu wɔ nublanui nɛ ŋutɔ, elabena nu geɖewo nɔ fu ɖem na wo, ke womenya nu si woawɔ o. Ɖeko wonɔ abe alẽha si kplɔla meli na o la ene.
BUT when Jeshu saw the multitudes, he had compassion upon them, because they fainted and were dispersed as sheep that had no shepherd;
37 Yesu gblɔ na eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo be, “Nuŋeŋe la sɔ gbɔ, gake dɔwɔlawo mede ha o.
and said to his disciples, The harvest is great, and the labourers few.
38 Eya ta miɖe kuku na nuŋeŋe ƒe Aƒetɔ la bena, wòadɔ dɔwɔlawo aɖo ɖe eƒe nuŋeŋe la me.”
Ask, therefore, from the Lord of the harvest, that he would thrust forth labourers into his harvest.
