Luka 20
1 Dayenli ke Jesu ka ki bangi bi niba U Tienu diegu nni ki wangi o laabaaliŋamo, bi kopadicianba yudanba leni li balimaama bangikaaba leni bi nikpeliba den cua o kani
And on one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and preaching, the chief priests and Scribes, with the Elders, came upon him,
2 ki yedi o: “Waani ti ya bali yaapo ke a tiendi li naa bonla. Hme n puni a li bali?”
and said to him: Tell us, by what authority thou doest these things? And who is it, that gave thee this authority?
3 Jesu den goa ki yedi ba: “N moko baa buali yi bonyenla, yin waani nni.
Jesus answered, and said to them: I also will ask you a word, and tell ye me.
4 Jan n den batisi bi niba yeni, o den baa li bali tanpoli po bi, bi bi nisaaliba kane?”
The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men?
5 Bi den bungi bi pala nni ki tua: “Ti ya yedi ke o den baa li tanpoli po, o baa yedi: 'Be yaapo ke yii den daani o maama?'
And they reasoned with themselves, and said: If we say, From heaven; he will say to us, And why did ye not believe him?
6 Ti ya yedi: 'Bi nisaaliba ya kane' mo, bi niba kuli baa lugidi ti a tana kelima bi nua ke jan den tie sawalipualo.”
But if we say, From men; all the people will stone us; for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.
7 Lanyaapo bi den goa ki yedi Jesu ke baa bani jan bali n ñani naani.
And they said to him: We do not know, whence it was.
8 Jesu den yedi ba: N moko kan waani yi ya bali yaapo ke n tiendi laa bonla.”
Jesus said to them: Neither do I tell you, by what authority I do these things.
9 Lani yaapuoli Jesu den pua bi niba mi naa kpanjama ki yedi: “O joa den ŋu duven tiidi kuanu, ki guuni o kuanu bi koaguudiba ki fii ki gedi u dogu ki baan waagi lipo.
And he began to utter this similitude to the people: A certain man planted a vineyard, and leased it to cultivators, and went abroad for a long time.
10 Li yogunu n den pundi, o den soani naacenyendo bi koaguudiba yeni kani, ke ban teni o biinu o kuanu bonbaakaala nni. Ama bi koaguudiba den pua o i gbiami, ki yaadi o nukuomu.
And in time, he sent his servant to the cultivators, that they might give him of the fruits of the vineyard. But the cultivators beat him, and sent him away empty.
11 O go den soani naacentoa, bi den pua o moko i gbiami, ki fiagi o ki yaadi o nukuomu.
And again he sent another servant; and him also they beat, and treated with rudeness, and sent empty away.
12 O go den soani o naacentaalo mo. Bi den poagili o, ki deli o.
And again he sent the third. And they wounded him, and cast him out.
13 O koadaano den yedi o yuli: 'N baa tieni lede? To, n baa soani n bijabuadiga, daalinba bi baa fangi wani wani.'
The lord of the vineyard said: What shall I do? I will send my dear son. Perhaps they will look upon him, and be ashamed.
14 Ama bi koaguudiba n den laa o bi den yedi bi yaba: 'One n tie o faajielo, tin kpa o mani li faali n tua ti yaali.'
But when the cultivators saw him, they reasoned with themselves, and said: This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.
15 Bi den luni o u kuanu puoli po ki kpa o. Lanwani o koadaano baa soani ba lede?
And they cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
16 O baa cua ki bolini laa koaguudiba ki teni o kuanu nitoaba.” Ban den gbadi lani bi den yedi: “U Tienu n da tuo line n tieni.”
He will come, and destroy those cultivators, and will lease the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said: This shall not be.
17 Jesu den diidi ba ki yedi: “lanwani yaala n diani na bundi be? Bi tanmaaba n den yie ya tanli lini n tua li tanpuuli tanjigi.”
And he looked upon them, and said: What is that which is written, The stone, which the builders rejected, is become the chief corner stone?
18 Jesu den juodi ki yedi: “Yua n baa laa tanli po kuli baa kuakua, lin baa yua ya po mo baa tua wagima.”
And whoever shall fall upon this stone, will be broken; and on whomsoever it shall fall, it will crush him in pieces.
19 Lanyogunu liga bi kopadicianba yudanba leni li balimaama bangikaaba den moandi ki baa cuo Jesu, kelima bi den bandi ke o pua mi kpanjama yeni ki bagi bane, de bi den jie bi niba.
And the chief priests and Scribes sought to lay hands on him, at that time; but they were afraid of the people; for they knew, that he spoke this similitude against them.
20 Bi den kpaagi Jesu, ki soani ya niba n kpali ke bi tiegi ki buali o moamoani, ke ban dia o ku madiagu ki cuo o leni maama ba ki teni bi bujiaba leni gufeneeli nuunni wan bu ki cuo o.
And they sent to him spies, who feigned themselves righteous men, that they might insnare him in discourse, and deliver him up to a court, and to the authority of the president.
21 Laa niba den buali o ki yedi: “Canbaa, ti bani ke ŋan maadi ki bangi yaala tiegi, ŋaa gagidi oba bi niba siiga, a bangi bi niba U Tienu sanŋoadima leni i moamoani.
And they questioned him, and said to him: Teacher, we know that thou speakest and teachest correctly, and hast no respect of persons, but teachest the way of God in truth.
22 Naani li pia u sanu tin pa Loma badiciamo Sesa li lubili bi, bi laa pia?”
Is it lawful for us to pay head-money to Caesar, or not?
23 Jesu den bandi bi fanu ki yedi: “Min le li kujapienli.
But he perceived their craftiness, and said: Why tempt ye me?
24 Hme ya nannanli leni ŋme ya diani n ma lipo na?” Bi den goa ki yedi o: “Sesa yaali yo.”
Show me a denarius. Whose is this image and superscription upon it? They said to him, Caesar's.
25 O den yedi ba: “Lanwani pa mani Sesa, yaala n tie Sesa yaala, ki pa U Tienu mo, yaala n tie U Tienu yaala.”
Jesus said to them: Then, give to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's.
26 Baa den fidi ki cuo o o maama nni bi niba nintuali. O maguankaama yeni den paki ba ke bi ŋmini suo.
And they could not catch from him a word of accusation before the people: and they were surprised at his answers, and were silent.
27 Sadusieninba yaaba n tua ke bi tinkpiba fiima ki ye, bi tianba den cua Jesu kani ki buali o ki yedi:
And some of the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came and questioned him,
28 “Canbaa, Musa den diani ki bili tipo li balimaama nni ki yedi: 'O nilo ciamo ya kpe, ki pia pua kaa pia biga, wan taa o kpelo yeni pua ki baa o kpelo po u buolu.'
and said to him: Teacher, Moses wrote to us, that if a man's brother die, who had a wife without children, his surviving brother shall take his wife, and raise up seed to his deceased brother.
29 To, jaba lele den ye ki taa baa. O bonkpialo den taa o pua ki kpe kaa pia biga.
Now, there were seven brothers; and the first took a wife, and died without children.
30 O bonlielo den taa o kpepuoli ki kpe. O bontaalo mo den taa o.
And the second took her to wife; and he died without children.
31 Li den tua yeni, ke ban bonba lele yeni kuli den kpekpe kaa pia biga.
And again, the third took her, and in like manner also all the seven; and they died, and left no children.
32 Li ya puoli o puoli o pua mo den ti kpe.
At last, the woman likewise died.
33 Lanwani bi tinkpiba fiima yogunu, o pua yeni baa tua ŋme ya yua yo? Kelima bani bonba lele yeni kuli yendo yendo taa o ke o tua o pua.”
In the resurrection, therefore, of which of them will she be the wife, for the seven took her?
Jesus said to them: The children of this world take wives, and wives are given to husbands. (aiōn g165)
35 Ama yaaba n dagidi ki fii bi tinkpiba siiga ki kua ya yogunu n kpendi ya yema nni, bi jaba kan go taa puoba, bi puoba mo kan go kuni jaba. (aiōn g165)
But they who are worthy of that world, and of the resurrection from the dead, do not take wives, nor are wives given to husbands. (aiōn g165)
36 Kelima bi baa tie nani malekinba yene, ki kan go kpe. Bi tie U Tienu bila, wan fiini yaaba bi tinkpiba siiga.
Neither can they die any more; for they are as the angels, and are the children of God, because they are children of the resurrection.
37 Yaala n tie bi tinkpiba fiima maama fuuli, Musa den maadi li maama wan togidi ya fatuugu n den co mi fantama ya yogunu, wan den yini o Diedo ya yeli n na: Abalahama Tienu, Isaaka Tienu leni Jakobo Tienu.
But that the dead will arise, even Moses showed; for, at the bush, he maketh mention, while he saith: The Lord, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
38 To, U Tienu naa tie kpiema Tienu, o tie yaaba n fo ya Tienu yo. Kelima o yaapo wani, bi kuli fo.”
Now God is not the God of the dead, but of the living; for they all live to him.
39 Li balimaama bangikaaba siiga bi tianba den yedi: “Canbaa, a maadi bonŋanla.”
And some of the Scribes answered, and said to him: Teacher, thou hast spoken well.
40 Baa go den pia papaali ki go buali o bualiba kuli.
And they did not again venture to question him, on any matter.
41 Jesu go den yedi ba: “Li ga lede ke bi niba tua U Tienu n gandi yua tie Dafidi bijua?
And he said also to them: How do the Scribes say of Messiah, that he is the son of David?
42 Dafidi wani oba maadi Pisoma tili nni ki yedi: 'O Diedo den yedi n Diedo kali n jienu po,
And David himself said, in the book of Psalms: The Lord said to my Lord, seat thyself at my right hand,
43 ŋali min baa teni a yibalinba n tua a taaŋmaakaanu.'
until I shall place thy foes under thy feet.
44 Dafidi oba yini o o Diedo, li nan go ga lede ke o tie wani Dafidi bijua?”
If David, therefore, called him, My Lord; how is he his son?
45 Ku niligu kuli n den cengi, Jesu den yedi o ŋoadikaaba:
And while all the people heard, he said to his disciples:
46 “Fangi mani yi yula leni li balimaama bangikaaba bani yaaba n bua ki ya laa a liadiciama, ki go bua ban ya fuondi ki kpiagidiba mu daamu nni, ki go bua ki ya ka i niciankali-kaani li balimaama bangima diena nni, ki go bua ya kaani n gagidi mi jecianma kani.
Beware of the Scribes, who choose to walk in long robes, and love a salutation in the streets, and the chief seats in the synagogues, and the chief couches at suppers:
47 Bi go janbidi a kpepuona ki fenli bi diena, ki go jaandi i jaandi foagi ki kpali ke bi tie jajaandimoana. Ti buudi ya yogunu bi ya cuonu baa gagidi ki ya bia ki cie.”
who eat up the houses of widows, under pretence that they prolong their prayers. They will receive a greater condemnation.
