< Matiu 11 >
1 Jisasi'a 12fu'a amage'ma nentaza disaipol nagamokizmi naneke zamasmi vagareteno, anantetira rankumate'ene ne'onse kumate ene mono ke nehuno, rempi huzamiku vu'ne.
After Jesus had finished giving directions to his twelve Disciples, he left that place in order to teach and preach in their towns.
2 Hagi Joni'a kina nompi mani'neno, Kraisi'ma eria erizamofo ke nentahino, Joni'a agri'a amagema nentaza disaipol naga agenoka ome hutma keho huno huzamantege'za,
Now John had heard in prison what the Christ was doing, and he sent a message by his disciples,
3 vu'za, Kagra avegama ante'nomokafi ru nere, hifi tagra mago'a vaheku kegahune?
and asked —” Are you ‘The Coming One,’ or are we to look for someone else?”
4 Ana ke nona'a Jisasi'a anage huno zamasmi'ne. Tamagra vutma, nentahita, kaza zana Jonina ome asamiho,
The answer of Jesus to the question was — “Go and report to John what you hear and see —
5 avu suhu vahe'mo'za kazageno, zmaga havizahu vahe'mo'za kana vazageno, fugo namuzmare'nea vahe'mo'za knare hazageno, zamagesa ankanire vahe'mo'za antahi'zageno, fri vahe'mo'za otizageno, zamunte omane vahe'mo'za knare muse ke antahi'naze.
the blind recover their sight and the lame walk, the lepers are made clean and the deaf hear, the dead, too, are raised to life, and the good news is told to the poor.
6 Hanki iza'o Nagrama huazanku'ma amentintima ataresigeno uoramisimofona, Anumzamo'a asomu huntegahie hutma ome asamiho.
And blessed is the man who finds no hindrance in me.”
7 Joni amagema nentaza disaipol naga nevazageno, Jisasi'a agafa huno anampi mani'naza kevua Joninkura zamasmi'ne, Ka'ma kopima vu'nazana na'a ome ke'naku vu'naze? Zahomo traza eri tagosi hiaza ke'naku vu'nazafi?
While these men were going back, Jesus began to say to the crowds with reference to John:
8 Hagi na'a ome kenaku vu'naze? Mago vahe'mo marerisa kukena hu'nea kenafi? Kinimofo kumapi nemaniza vahe'mo'zage marerisa kukena eri nehankraze.
“What did you go out into the Wilderness to look at? A reed waving in the wind? If not, what did you go out to see? A man richly dressed? Why, those who wear rich things are to be found in the courts of kings!
9 Hu'neanagi na'a ome kenaku vu'naze? Mago kasnampa nepi? Tamage hu'na Nagra neramasamue, hakare kasnampa vahera zamagatereno mani'nea ne' ome ke'naze.
What, then, did you go for? To see a Prophet? Yes, I tell you, and far more than a Prophet.
10 Ama ana neku avontafepina amanage huno krentene, Antahio, kema erino vu vahe'ni'a Nagra huntogeno ugagota huganteno kama vanana kana varino vugahie hu'ne. (Mal 3:1)
This is the man of whom Scripture says — ‘Behold, I am myself sending my Messenger before thy face, and he shall prepare thy way before thee.’
11 Tamage hu'na Nagra neramasmue, a'nemo'za kasema zamante'naza vahepintira, mago'mo'e huno mono tima frezamante Joni knara osu'ne! Ana hianagi Anumzamofo kumapima osi hu'nemo, anamo agrira agatere'ne.
I tell you, no one born of a woman has yet appeared who is greater than John the Baptist; and yet the lowliest in the Kingdom of Heaven is greater than he.
12 Mono ti frezamante Joni knareti eno menima eana, Anumzamofo kumama erikura hanavetiza kazigazi hu'za ha' nehaze.
From the time of John the Baptist to this very hour, the Kingdom of Heaven has been taken by force, and men using force have been seizing it.
13 Hagi miko kasnampa kene, kasegea nehazageno eno Joni knare eme atre'ne.
For the teaching of all the Prophets and of the Law continued till the time of John;
14 Hagi Nagrama nehua kema antahinakuma hanutma, antahiho, Elaijae egahie hu'nea nera agra'a Joni'e.
and — if you are ready to accept it — John is himself the Elijah who was destined to come.
15 Iza'o agesama me'nenimo'a, ama nanekea antahi ankereno.
Let him who has ears hear.
16 Hianagi amagnafi mani'naza vahe kura inankna ke zamagrikura hunte'na hugahue? Amanahu kna hu'ne, maketi kumapi mofavre'zagamo'za kanuzage hu'za mani'ne'za, mago'amokizmigu ke'za atigantu zami'za,
But to what shall I compare the present generation? It is like little children sitting in the market-places and calling out to their playmates —
17 tagra konke tafe reneramantonketa, tamagra avoa nohagaze, zavi nehunketa, tamagra zavira notaze hu'za hu'naze.
‘We have played the flute for you, but you have not danced; We have wailed, but you have not mourned.’
18 Hagi Joni'ma manino e'nea knafina, ne'zana rama'a oneno, waini tina onege'za, zamagra havi avamu agripina mani'ne hu'naze!
For, when John came, neither eating nor drinking, men said ‘He has a demon in him’;
19 Vahe'mofo mofavremo eno ne'zane tine nenege'za, zamagra anage hu'naze, keho ne'za nevaganereno, aka tinte nehuno, takesi eri vahe'ene kumi vahe'mokizmi ronezamie hu'naze! Ana hu'neanagi anama hu'nefina knare antahi'za, eriama hu'ne.
and now that the Son of Man has come, eating and drinking, they are saying ‘Here is a glutton and a wine-drinker, a friend of tax-gatherers and outcasts!’ And yet Wisdom is vindicated by her actions.”
20 Anante Jisasi erigafa huno mago'a kaguvaza higeza ke'naza ranra kumateti vahe'mo'za zamagu'a rukarehe osaza zanku, ke ontahi vahere huno huhaviza huzamantene.
Then Jesus began to reproach the towns in which most of his miracles had been done, because they had not repented:
21 Kva hiho Korasini vahe'mota! Kva hiho Bedsaita vahemota tusi nasunku huramantoe! Na'ankure kaguvazama huazama Tairine, Saidoni kumatema huasina, zamagra zamasunku kukena nehu'za, tanefa fare'za zamagu'a rukarehe ko hazasine.
“Alas for you, Chorazin! Alas for you, Bethsaida! For, if the miracles which were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
22 Tamage hu'na neramasamue, Tairi vahe'mo'zane, Saidoni vahe'mo'za Anumzamoma vahe'ma refakoma huknare osi'a knaza erigahazanki, tamagra rama'a knaza zamagareta erigahaze.
Yet, I tell you, the doom of Tyre and Sidon will be more bearable in the ‘Day of Judgment’ than yours.
23 Hagi tamagra Kapaniumu vahe'mota monarera marerigahafi? Anara osugahaze. Tamagra fri vahe'mofo kumapi Hedes uramigahaze, Nagrama tamagripima hua kaguvaza Sodomu huasina, meninena amane mesine. (Hadēs )
And you, Capernaum! Will you ‘exalt yourself to Heaven’? ‘You shall go down to the Place of Death.’ For, if the miracles which have been done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have been standing to this day. (Hadēs )
24 Tamage hu'na neramasmue, vahe'ma refakohu knarera, Sodomu mopafi vahe'mo'za erisaza knazana, agateretma ra knaza erigahaze.
Yet, I tell you, the doom of Sodom will be more bearable in the ‘Day of Judgment’ than yours.”
25 Ana knazupa Jisasi anage huno nunamuna hu'ne, Nenfaga monane, mopamofo Ra mani'nane, susu hu'na musenke hugantoe. Antahi'zane vahe manita, antahi ankerenone nehaza vahetera, eri frakinenka, osi mofavre'gna hu'naza vahete eri ama hu'nane.
At that same time Jesus uttered the words: “I thank thee, Father, Lord of Heaven and earth, that, though thou hast hidden these things from the wise and learned, thou hast revealed them to the child-like!
26 Hagi Nafa'nimoka amanahu'zama hua zamo'a, Kagri kazeri muse nehie.
Yes, Father, I thank thee that this has seemed good to thee.
27 Miko'azana Nenfa nami'ne, magomo'a Nemofona antahino keno osu'neanagi, Nefake antahi'ne. Mago'mo'e huno Nefana antahino keno osu'neanagi, Nemofoke antahino keno hu'ne. Hagi Nemofoma eri averi hugahue himofo, eri averi hugahie.
Everything has been committed to me by my Father; nor does any one fully know the Son, except the Father, or fully know the Father, except the Son and those to whom the Son may choose to reveal him.
28 Ana'ana nehuta maragu'za neti'nageno, knama tamavenesinimota nagrite enkena tamazeri fru ha'neno.
Come to me, all you who toil and are burdened, and I will give you rest!
29 Nagri agarenamare zafa eri kofinetma, Nagriteti rempi hiho. Na'ankure Nagra akohena nagu'a antefru hu'na nemanue. Hanigeno tamagu'amo'a fru hugahie.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly-minded, and ‘you shall find rest for your souls’;
30 Nagri agarenmare zafama eri'amo'a oza higeno, knazanima erisaga hu'amo'a, amuho osu'ne.
for my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
