Luka 9
1 Jesu den yini ki taani bi piiga n niliediba ki puni ba u paalu leni li bali ban ya paani mu cicibiadimu kuli ki go paagidi bi niba ban yia ya yianbuoli kuli.
Then he called the Twelve together, and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to heal;
2 O den soani ba ke ban ya wangi U Tienu diema maama, ki go ya paagidi a yiama moko.
and sent them out to preach the kingdom of God, and heal the sick.
3 O den yedi ba: “Yin da taa liba li sancenli po, baa gbiamu, baa sancenboagili, baa jiema, baa ligi, ki da taa liada lie mo.
And he said to them. "Take nothing for your journey, neither staff, nor bag, nor bread, nor money, and do not have two tunics.
4 Yin kua ya diegu nni kuli, yin ya ye lankani ŋali yin baa fii.
"Into whatever house you enter, there stay, and thence depart.
5 Bi yaa tuo ki ga yi cangu naankani kuli, yi ya ña laa dogu nni ya yogunu, yin kpia ba yi taatama, lan tua seedi bi yiema po.”
"If any one will not receive you, shake off the dust from your feet as you leave this town, as a testimony against them."
6 Lani bi ŋoadikaaba den fii ki gedi ki goagoadi i dowaali nni ki wangi o laabaaliŋamo, ki paagidi a yiama i kaani kuli.
So they went forth, and walked from village to village, preaching the gospel and healing everywhere.
7 Elodo yua n den die Galile diema den gbadi yaala n tieni kuli, o yama den lengidi kelima bi tianba den tua ke Jan Batisi fii bi tinkpiba siiga,
Now Herod, the Tetrarch, heard of all that was happening; and he was perplexed because of its being said by someone that Johnwas risen from the dead;
8 bine mo n ya tua ke o sawalipualo Elia n go doagidi o yuli, bine mo ke bi sawalipuaba siiga yendo n fii bi tinkpiba siiga.
and by some that Elijah had appeared; and by others that one of the ancient prophets was risen again.
9 Wani Elodo mo den tua: “N den teni ke bi jia Jan yuli, Lanwani min gba ke bi maadi yua yaapo li naabonla kuli tie ŋme?” O den moandi ki baa la o.
So Herod said, "I beheaded John, but who is this of whom I am hearing such reports," And he kept seeking to see him.
10 Jesu tondiba den guani o kani ki togidi o ban tieni yaala kuli. Lani o den taaba bi bebe ke bi gedi Batisayida dogu kunu po.
On their return the apostles told him what they had done. and he took them and withdrew in private to a town called Bethsaida.
11 A nigola den bandi ki ŋoadi o. Jesu den biali ba, ki waani ba U Tienu diema maama ki go paagi yaaba n ki pa.
But when the crowd learned this they followed him. He received them kindly and spoke to them concerning the kingdom of God, and healed those who needed restored to good health.
12 Ki yenga n den bua ki kua, bi piiga n niliediba den nagini Jesu kani ki yedi o: “Cabi ku niligu ban yadi ki gedi ya dobila leni ya koajaana n kuu, ki ban baa u duankaanu leni li bonjekaala, kelima tin ye naani ne tie fuali.”
But now the day began to decline, and the twelve came to him and said. "Send away the crowd so that they may go into the villages and surrounding the country to lodge and buy provisions; for here we are on a solitary place."
13 Jesu den yedi ba: “Pa ba mani yiba ban je.” Bi den goa yedi: “Tii pia liba kali dupen bonbimuu, leni jami lie, li yaa tie ke ti baa gedi ki ban da li bonjekaala ya niligu n tie na po yaaka.”
"Do you yourselves give them food," he answered. "We have nothing," they replied "Except five loaves, and a couple fish, unless you mean for us to go and buy provisions for all the crowd."
14 Kelima bi jaba bebe den bua ki pundi tudamuu. Jesu den yedi o ŋoadi kaaba: “Teni mani ban boagidi nani niba piimuu muu yeni, ki kali caga caga.”
(For there were about five thousand men.) "Make them sit down in table-companies, of about fifty each," he said to his disciples.
15 Bi den tieni yeni ki kaani bi niba kuli.
This they did, and made them all sit down.
16 Jesu den taa bi dupenmuudiba leni i janliedi yeni, ki yaadi ki noanli tanpoli ki jaandi ki seligi la. Lani o den cabidi cabidi ki teni o ŋoadikaaba ban boagidi ku niligu.
Then he took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up in heaven, he blessed them, broke them in pieces, and began to giving to his disciples to apportion among the crowd.
17 Yua kuli den dini ki guo. Bi den wodi ban dini ki sieni yaala ki gbieni piiga n baabuodi lie leni a boncaba.
So they ate and were filled, all of them. And there was picked up that which remained over to them, of broken pieces, twelve basketfuls.
18 Dayenli Jesu den piadi ki jaandi ke o ŋoadikaaba bebe den ye leni o. O den buali ba: “A nigola tua ke n tie ŋme?”
Now it happened that while he was praying by himself, the disciples were with him, and he asked them a question. "Who do the crowd think I am?"
19 Bi den goa ki yedi o: “Boncianla tua ke a tie Jan Batisi, bine Elia, bine mo ke bi sawalipuaba siiga nni yendo n fii bi tinkpiba siiga.”
"Johnthe Baptist," they answered, "But others say Elijah, and others that one of the ancient prophets is risen again."
20 O den yedi ba: “Yi mo te, yi mo nan yedi ke n tie ŋme yo? “Pieli den goa ki yedi o: “A tie UTienu n Gandi yua.”
Then he said to them, "But who do you say I am? Then Peter answered saying, "The Christ of God.’
21 Jesu den maadi leni li bali ki yedi ke ban da waani la niloba kuli.
Then he strictly forbade them to tell this to any one;
22 O go den yedi ke li tie tiladi o Ja Bijua n la fala boncianla, ke Jufinba nikpeliba leni bi Kopadicianba yudanba leni leni li balimaama bangikaaba n yie o, ki kpa o. Ama ke li dataali daali o baa fii bi tinkpiba siiga.
and he said, "The Son of man must suffer much, and be restricted by the elders and high priests and scribes and be put to death, and on the third day be raised again."
23 Lani Jesu den yedi bi niba kuli: “Yua n bua ki ya ŋua nni kuli, wan yie o yuli, ki bugi o dapoanpoanli daali kuli ki nan ya ŋua nni.
And he said to all. "If any man wills to follow me, Let him renounce self and take up his cross daily and follow me.
24 Kelima yua n bua ki ga miali kuli o baa biani li, ama yua n baa biani o miali kelima mini yaapo kuli baa faabi li.
"For whoever wills to save his life shall lose it; and whoever loses his life for my sake shall save it.
25 O nilo ya ba ki diedi ŋanduna kuli ke o miali nan bodi, bi ki bolini o yuli, li baa ŋanbi o po be?
"For what shall it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world and lose or forfeit himself?
26 Yua n jie i fe mini leni n maama kuli po, o Ja Bijua moko baa ti jie opo i fe o ya cua leni o kpiagidi leni Baa yaa kpiagidi ki yegi leni yaa malekinba n gagidi.
"For whoever is ashamed of me and of my teachings, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed when he comes in his own and in his Father’s glory, and in that of the holy angels.
27 N waani yi moamoani, yaaba n ye nakanba, bi tianba kan kpe kaa laa UTienu diema.”
"But I tell you truly there are some of those standing here who will not taste death till they see the kingdom of God."
28 Jesu n den maadi la maama ke dana nii pendi, o den taa Pieli leni Jan leni Jaka ki doni li juali po ki baa jaandi.
About eight days after this it happened that Jesus took Peter, James, and John, and went up on the mountain to pray.
29 Wan den jaandi ya gogunu, o nunga n naani maama den lebidi, o tiayiekaadi moko den lebidi ki pendi ŋali ki ñuliti.
And as he was praying the appearances of his countenance became different, and his clothing became white and dazzling.
30 Jaba lie den maadi leni o. Li den tie, Musa leni Elia, ke bi doagidi bi yula ke,
And suddenly there were two men talking with him, who were Moses and Elijah.
31 tanpoli kpiagidi lindi ba, ke bi maadi leni Jesu wan baa kpe ya kuuma jelusalema nni po.
These appeared in glory and talked about his departure which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.
32 Mi guama den bgadi Pieli leni o lieba, ama bi den yie mi guama pokilaa Jesu kpiagidi leni ya jaliediba n se leni o.
Now Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep; but when they were fully awake they saw his glory, and the two men were standing beside him.
33 Bi jaba yeni n den baa ña Jesu kani ya yogunu, Pieli den yedi o: “Canbaa, li ŋani tin ya ye ne. Tin tieni diena taa, fini yenli, Musa yenli, Elia mo yenli.” Waa den bani wan maadi yaala.
And when they were preparing to depart from him Peter said to Jesus. "Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tents, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah" - not knowing what he was saying.
34 Wan den maadi yeni ya yogunu, ku tawaligun den jiidi ki libini ba. Bi ŋoadikaaba n den laa ke bi kua kutawaligu nni, ti jawaandi den cuo ba.
And while he was saying this, there came a cloud and began to overshadow them; and they were awestruck as they entered into the cloud.
35 U nialu den maadi kutawaligu nni ki yedi: “one n tie n Bijua, min gandi yua, cengi mami o.”
And a voice came out of the cloud, saying. "This is my Son, my chosen one; listen to him."
36 U nialu yeni n den maadi ki gbeni, bi sua ke Jesu ye o bebe. Bi ŋoadikaaba den muubi bi ñoana, baa togidi oba laa yogunu ban la yaala.
When the voice ceased Jesus was found alone. And they held their peace, and told no one at that time about what they had seen.
37 Lan den fii ki fa, bi den jiidsi li juali po, ya niligu n yaba den tuogi Jesu.
It happened the next day, when they were come down from the mountain, that a large crowd came to meet him;
38 O ja den kpaani ku nikigu siiga ki yeddi: “canbaa, n mia ŋa ŋan diidi npo n bi jua na, kelima o tie n bonjajenjenga.
and a man called out of the crowd saying. "Teacher, I beg you to look upon my son; for he is my only boy,
39 Ki cicibiadiga n fii opo ya yogunu kuli, lanyogunu liga o yen kuudi, kan yaa digin o leni u paalu kikpalini o leni ti ŋminsanpunpudi ki faligidi o. Ki ñama o niinni pa opo.
"and behold a spirit seizes hold of him, and rudely he shouts out, It convulses him till he foams; indeed it will hardly leave off bruising him sorely.
40 N bi mia a ŋoadikaaba ke ban deli ki ñani ga o kani, ke baa fidi.”
"I begged your disciples to cast it out, but they could not."
41 Jesu den goa ki yedi: “Yinba, yaa nibuolu n luo li dandan ki go bia, n baa taa ki ye leni yi ki go juuni yipo ki pundi u laa yogunu? Cuani a bijua na.”
"O faithless and perverse generation," said Jesus, "how long shall I be with you and bear with you? Bring your son to me."
42 Ki biga n den nagini Jesu kani ya yogunu, ki cicibiadiga den guli o ki go digini o leni u paalu. Jesu den funi leni ga, ki paagi ki biga, ki teni o o baa.
But while he was yet coming the demon dashed him down, and cruelly convulsed him. Then Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and cured the boy, and gave him back to his father.
43 U Tienu kpiagidi leni o paaciamu den paki yaaba n ye li kani kuli. Bi niba kuli n den laa Jesu n tieni yaala kuli ke li fangicianli leni li pakili cuo ba, o den yedi o ŋoadikaaba:
And they were all awestruck at the mighty power of God. But while everyone was marveling at what he was doing, he said to his disciples.
44 “Yinba, yin diadi mani yi tuba ki cengi mi naa maama bonŋanla: Bi niba baa janbi o Ja Bijuaki teni o bi nisaaliba nuu nni.”
"Let these words sink into your ears; for the son of man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men."
45 Ama bi ŋoadikaaba ki den ga laa maama n bua ki yedi yaala. Li den duagi bipo ke ban da ga ma. Bi den jie, baa buali Jesu lipo.
But they did not understand this saying; it was hidden from them so that they perceived it not, and they were sore afraid to ask him about his saying.
46 Mi niama den fii bi ŋoadikaaba siiga, ke ban bandi bi siiga yua n tugi li yuli.
Now there arose a dispute among them as to which one of them was the greatest.
47 Jesu den bandi ban maliti yaala bi pala nni, ki taa ki biwaaga ki sieni o o kani
And Jesus who knew the dispute that was in their hearts, took a young child, and placed him by his side;
48 ki yedi ba: “yua n ga ki naa biga n yeli nni ga mini nba yo, yua n ga mini mo, o ga yua n soani nni. Yi siiga yua n wa ki cie yikuli, wani n tugi li yuli.”
then he said to them. "Whoever shall receive this little child in my name receives me; and whoever shall receive me receives him that sent me. For it is the lowliest among you all who is great."
49 Jan den yedi: “Canbaa, ti den la ya ja n deli mu cicibiadimu a yeli nni ke ti yie opo, kelima waa taani leni ti ki ŋua ŋa.”
"Master," said John, "we saw a man who was casting out demons in your name, and we forbade him, because he was not following us."
50 Jesu den goa ki yedi o: “Da go yie mani opo ke wan da go tieni la, kelima yua n kaa yie yipo kuli taa yi po.”
But Jesus said, "Forbid him not, for he who is not against you is for you."
51 U yogunu n den nagini ke U Tienu baa ñani Jesu ŋanduna nni ki duoni o tanpoli, Jesu den jagi ki bili ke o baa gedi jelusalema.
When now when the time drew near for him to be received up, he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem,
52 O den soani bi tondiba ke bi kua o liiga. bi den gedi ki ban kua Samali doyendu nni ki baa lingi o po ku candiegu.
and sent messengers before him. These went and entered into a Samaritan village to make ready for him.
53 Ama baa den tuo Jesu cangu, kelima wan caa jelusalema yeni yaapo.
But they did not receive him because his face was set to go to Jerusalem.
54 O ŋoadikaaba Jaka leni Jan n den laa lani bi den yedi: “Ti Daano, a bua tin yedi mi fantama n ña tanpoli po ki bolini ba bi?”
And when his disciples, Jamesand John, saw this they said, "Lord, are you willing for us to bid fire come down from heaven and destroy them?" As Elijah did.
55 Jesu den jigidi ki noanli ba ki funi leni ba. kelima o Ja Bijua naa cua ki baa bolini bi nisaali miana ka, ama ki faabi ba yo.
But he turned and rebuked them and said,
56 Bi den suagi liiga ki gedi dotogu.
"You know not what kind of spirit you share, for the Son of man came not to destroy men’s lives, but to save them." And they went to another village.
57 Ban ye u sanu nni o nilo den yedi Jesu: “N baa ŋua ŋa ŋan caa naani kuli.”
As they were going on their way, a man came to him and said, "I will follow wherever you go."
58 Jesu den goa ki yedi: “I coli pia i fali, ti bonyugiditi mo pia ti tediti, ama o Ja Bijua wani naa pia wan baa dua naani.”
"The foxes have their holes," Jesus answered, "and the wild birds have their nest, but the Son of man has not where to lay his head."
59 Jesu den yedi nitoa mo: “ŋoadi nni.” o den goa ki yedi o: “N Daano, pa nni min da kpa gedi ki ban piini n baa no.”
To another he said, "Follow me!" But he replied, "Permit me first to go and bury my father."
60 Jesu den yedi o: “Cedi bi tinkpiba n piini bi tinkpiba, ama fini, gedi ki ban ya wangi U Tienu maama.”
"Leave the dead to bury their own dead," said Jesus to him, "go you and announce, far and wide the kingdom of God."
61 Nitoa go den yedi o: “N Daano, n baa ŋoadi a, ama pa nni min ŋda kpa gedi ki ban cabi n denpo yaaba.”
And another man also said to him. "I will follow you, Lord; but first permit me to bid farewell to those who are in my house."
62 Jesu go den yedi o: “Yua n mubini ku naayaligu ki baa ya ko, ki go gbegidi ki nua puoli, waa dagidi U Tienu diema po.”
But Jesus answered him, "No man who puts his hand to the plow and then looks back, is fit for the kingdom of God."
