1 Mach ave, Jisasɨv mbɨkɨr sezɨrmen Jerusalem ikwɨm ivi Betfage mach Betani aiampɨraŋ ahevɨkɨrorɨmŋgɨmar. Aiampɨra undɨmaj mbanamb aparɨma Olivɨnd handɨh ñɨhɨranj. Ave Jisasɨv sezɨr undɨmaj hamb ondɨv kamar.
As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage and Bethany at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent out two of His disciples
2 Ave mbɨ ndɨŋ mbanave kamar. Aiampɨra kehan wawɨmbɨrarɨŋ haŋ ovar amar. Amɨ aiampɨra kehaŋ ŋgwevohe pams haŋon donki nor han wandɨramŋgɨn amar. Mbɨ ndɨn mpamŋgɨz aŋkwañɨñɨmbɨri han, eŋambɨr wɨram emŋgav ndɨn insɨŋ mɨŋgarɨwɨmŋgɨrɨm amar. Mbɨkɨr kɨrɨpa han inɨmbi donki nor kehan ŋe hɨraivar amar.
and said to them, “Go into the village ahead of you, and as soon as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, on which no one has ever sat. Untie it and bring it here.
3 Avɨz wɨram emŋgav andɨŋ amarɨmɨr amar. Amɨ utɨndɨv donki nor han ŋe hɨromŋgɨn arar amarɨmɨr amar. Amɨ mbɨkɨr ya enore kavar amar. Anɨŋnsar Ohɨrav ndɨn ntɨŋ mbah, ave mbɨ ekwaŋg pams haŋon eŋgwaz aindari arar kavar amar.
If anyone asks, ‘Why are you doing this?’ tell him, ‘The Lord needs it and will return it shortly.’”
4 Mach, sezɨr undɨmaj hamb omŋgɨmar. Mbɨ aiampɨraŋ ŋgwevohe wamŋgɨz donki nor hamb empasamɨŋ aŋkwañɨmar. Wɨram kɨra emŋgemŋgav donki nor mbanan mpamŋgɨz oram impikŋ ikwɨm handɨh aŋkwañɨmar. Mach, sezɨr undɨmaj hamb ndɨn kɨrɨpa han inɨmbɨmŋgɨmar.
So they went and found the colt outside in the street, tied at a doorway. They untied it,
5 Avɨz wɨram kɨra ikwɨm aŋkwañɨhɨrɨmŋgɨmar hamb ndɨŋ mbanave amarɨmŋgɨmar. Amɨ undɨmaj utɨzɨŋɨn are donki nor mban inɨmbɨmŋgɨn arɨmŋgɨmar.
and some who were standing there asked, “Why are you untying the colt?”
6 Avɨz sezɨr undɨmaj hamb Jisasɨv ndɨŋ kamar hanaveonaŋg ndɨŋ kamŋgɨmar. Az wɨram kɨra hamb mpɨ imbɨrvam ñi sezɨr undɨmaj han kamŋgɨmar. Aria, ŋe hɨrovar arɨmŋgɨmar.
The disciples answered as Jesus had instructed them, and the people gave them permission.
7 Mach, sezɨr undɨmaj hamb donki nor han Jisasɨnd pɨŋ hɨraimŋgɨmar. Ave mbɨ yupɨr hɨrahɨr osapɨr mbɨndɨŋ han donki nor han insɨŋ ŋgamŋgɨmar. Az Jisasɨv hand insɨŋ ŋkañɨmar.
Then they led the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, and He sat on it.
8 Wɨram akŋ anchɨ akŋ hambez mbɨndɨŋ yupɨr hɨrahɨr osapɨr han aŋkwapai ore empasamɨŋ empɨramamŋgɨmar. Emŋgemŋgav antaŋ we aiyena akokazɨŋge empasamɨŋ amamŋgɨmar.
Many in the crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut from the fields.
9 Ave wɨram akŋ anchɨ akŋ hamb Jisasɨh uhɨmɨŋ ŋaŋgwame hɨromŋgɨmar. Mɨŋamun hanave aware kamŋgɨmar. Ŋɨñɨmbam oŋambam Yakŋ Ohɨrandɨv ñɨm arɨmŋgɨmar. Wɨram hamb Yakŋ Ohɨrand ensaŋ aindai han, eran Yakŋ Ohɨrav ndɨn omanenta sɨz arɨmŋgɨmar.
The ones who went ahead and those who followed were shouting: “Hosanna!” “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!”
10 Arɨŋɨnd ncha Devit, mbɨkɨr kwɨ haŋ ahevakarɨndari han Yakŋ Ohɨrav omanenta sɨz arɨmŋgɨmar. Yakŋ Ohɨrav Aiampɨra Ohɨra Ñaŋ ñi han, arɨ ndɨndɨv ŋɨñɨmbam oŋambam ñɨm arɨmŋgɨmar.
“Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!” “Hosanna in the highest!”
11 Avɨz Jisasɨv Jerusalemɨŋ ahevakare Yakŋ Ohɨrand marɨvai oram ohɨrand imbɨz unchaŋ ahevomar. Ave mbɨ werer ndamar. Kɨrɨm rapɨrɨv ŋkwuŋɨn azand mbɨ sezɨr oman ŋkiŋkiŋg undɨmaj mbɨkɨrmen Betaniŋ ekwaŋg aimŋgɨmar.
Then Jesus entered Jerusalem and went into the temple courts. He looked around at everything, but since it was already late, He went out to Bethany with the Twelve.
12 Mach, uiv ŋakaz mbɨ aiampɨra Betani erere ondamŋgɨz, Jisasɨv unsandɨv mamar.
The next day, when they had left Bethany, Jesus was hungry.
13 Ave mbɨ waz ai fik hamb taŋɨpɨr kansɨnd ñɨmar. Ai kehan zɨŋɨmp ohɨra. Ave mbɨ ainor han kɨrahɨr ai kehand pɨŋ omar. Kɨrɨm ainor emŋgaŋg mɨwam, nend. Zɨŋɨmbam ñi ainor pamaŋg mɨŋgwɨm. Han ainor ŋgwɨŋgwɨnd iŋgi mah.
Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, He went to see if there was any fruit on it. But when He reached it, He found nothing on it except leaves, since it was not the season for figs.
14 Az Jisasɨv ai fik han mbanave kamar. Amɨ mɨŋ han wɨndɨv ŋgwɨmɨn avɨn wɨramb namŋgɨmɨnj, nendon mɨŋun amar. Avɨz mbɨkɨr sezɨrɨv ya mban njɨhamŋgɨmar. (aiōn g165)
Then He said to the tree, “May no one ever eat of your fruit again.” And His disciples heard this statement. (aiōn g165)
15 Mach, Jisasɨv sezɨrmen we Jerusalemɨŋ ahevɨkɨrorɨmŋgɨmar. Ahevɨkɨrorɨmŋgɨz Jisasɨv Yakŋ Ohɨrand marɨvai oram ohɨrand imbɨz unchaŋ ahevomar. Ahevohe osa anchɨ nsɨham nor ntɨŋ ŋaŋ ñɨmŋgɨmar han mach osa anchɨ hanɨhan uŋkɨ eŋgwamŋgɨmar hanez ondo ake kiaŋgwɨmar. Ave mbɨndɨŋ antɨm nsɨham nor enororɨnd mach ai esa sam haŋ ŋgarɨwi ikŋɨŋgwɨm uŋkɨ eŋgwamŋgɨj han ŋɨmbi akŋɨrɨzɨŋge pazɨmŋgamar.
When they arrived in Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple courts and began to drive out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those selling doves.
16 Ave mbɨ ndɨŋ erokare kamar. Hanɨhan utuhutuh han Yakŋ Ohɨrand marɨvai oram ohɨrand imbɨz unchaŋ hɨro hɨrai rar hɨrandamŋgɨmɨn amar.
And He would not allow anyone to carry merchandise through the temple courts.
17 Ave ndɨŋ ya sɨkah kamar. Yakŋ Ohɨrand anɨŋzɨŋ enta ya han mbanave mpamar oh o nend amar. Oram ihɨnd han, han Yakŋ Ohɨrand oram ahaz ororɨnd arar kandɨramŋgi arar mpamar amar. Wɨram akŋ anchɨ akŋ yimbɨm emŋgemŋgand hamb, mbɨ oram mbanaŋ ai yan ahaz orɨndɨramŋgi arar mpamar amar. Kɨrɨm amɨ ndɨn ramŋgɨn ui ŋkwoŋka akɨmɨndɨnd emamp ahevakari amar.
Then Jesus began to teach them, and He declared, “Is it not written: ‘My house will be called a house of prayer for all the nations’? But you have made it ‘a den of robbers.’”
18 Avɨz osa anchɨ hamb Jisasɨnd ya han njɨhame ntamŋgɨmar. Az wɨram kɨra anɨŋnsar hanɨhan Yakŋ Ohɨrandɨv ahaz ore ŋgamamɨnd hamb wɨram kɨra ya Mosesɨnd injambɨr ahe sɨkahɨndɨmen han we handɨv mbɨ Jisasɨndɨv ezandɨkŋahambɨmŋgɨmar. Handɨv mbɨ ondo ake empasam Jisas mamta orɨŋgamamɨndiv kɨramŋgɨmar.
When the chief priests and scribes heard this, they looked for a way to kill Him. For they were afraid of Him, because the whole crowd was astonished at His teaching.
19 Mach, nanempand zuh haŋ Jisasɨv sezɨrmen Jerusalem erere omŋgɨmar.
And when evening came, Jesus and His disciples went out of the city.
20 Mach ave, uiv ŋakaz mband zuhun Jisasɨv sezɨrmen empasamɨŋ aimŋgɨmar. Ai wamŋgɨz ai fik hamb mɨŋɨnd ntɨrɨnd zɨŋɨnd mɨŋam ndɨh pɨrɨravimar.
As they were walking back in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered from its roots.
21 Avɨz Pitav hanɨhan Jisasɨv sɨmar han njɨhame kamar. Anɨŋzɨŋ entand, wav amar. Mɨrɨh ai fik mbanamb kɨvah raz arar keman han, irɨh mɨŋam ndɨh pɨrɨri amar.
Peter remembered it and said, “Look, Rabbi! The fig tree You cursed has withered.”
22 Avɨz Jisasɨv ndɨŋ kamar. Amɨ Achakɨñŋam njɨhi aŋkarɨpɨr ŋe njɨhambar amar.
“Have faith in God,” Jesus said to them.
23 Nzɨ andɨŋ mɨŋun kin amar. Wɨram emŋga hamb aparɨma han imbɨr mbanave kamɨr amar. Amɨ ŋaiahe pɨraŋgore utɨm yambɨŋ ŋkwuv arar kamɨr amar. Mach, wɨram hamb njɨhi undɨmaj mah ñi, hanɨhan kehandɨv njɨhi aŋkarɨpɨr ŋe njɨhamɨz ya mbɨ ki kehamb ndɨndɨv imbɨr ahevakarɨndari han, mbɨ imbɨr ahevakarɨndari amar.
“Truly I tell you that if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and has no doubt in his heart but believes that it will happen, it will be done for him.
24 Handɨv nzɨ andɨŋ kin amar. Amɨ hanaveaŋg hanɨhan ŋaŋɨn are njɨhi aŋkarɨpɨr ŋe njɨhame Yakŋ Ohɨra ahaz orɨndɨramŋgɨn han, hanɨhan amɨ amarɨmŋgɨn kehamb andɨŋndɨv imbɨr ahevakarɨndari amar.
Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
25 Mach, andɨŋ wɨram emŋgav enta kɨvah sɨz, mach amɨ aŋkwañɨhɨri Yakŋ Ohɨra ahaz ore mbɨkɨr enta kɨvah han inɨmbɨvar amar. Hanavɨmŋgɨn amandɨŋ Yakŋ mbɨkɨr Aiampɨra Ohɨra Ñaŋ ñi mbanamb mbɨ amandɨŋ enta kɨvah hanez usɨndari amar.
And when you stand to pray, if you hold anything against another, forgive it, so that your Father in heaven will forgive your trespasses as well.”
27 Mach, Jisasɨv sezɨrmen Jerusalemɨŋ ekwaŋg aimŋgɨmar. Ave Jisasɨv Yakŋ Ohɨrand marɨvai oram ohɨrand imbɨz unchaŋ ŋgwevohe ndazand, wɨram kɨra anɨŋnsar hanɨhan Yakŋ Ohɨrandɨv ahaz ore ŋgamamɨnd, wɨram kɨra ya Mosesɨnd injambɨr ahe sɨkahɨnd, mach wɨram untɨm ohɨra kɨra Judand hamb ndɨn pɨŋ aimŋgɨmar.
After their return to Jerusalem, Jesus was walking in the temple courts, and the chief priests, scribes, and elders came up to Him.
28 Mbɨ ai ndɨn mbanave amarɨmŋgɨmar. Amɨ ensa ohɨra han nzɨhandɨh ŋe ntɨŋ mban ŋan arɨmŋgɨmar. Ave nan ensa ohɨra han uñɨmb eŋgwe nan kaz ntɨŋ mban ŋan arɨmŋgɨmar.
“By what authority are You doing these things?” they asked. “And who gave You the authority to do them?”
29 Avɨz Jisasɨv ndɨŋ mbanave kamar. Mach, nzez andɨŋ hanɨhan emŋgandɨv amarɨndarin amar. Amɨ ihɨnd amarar han omanenton kamŋgɨn, uñɨmb yan ensa ohɨrand ntɨŋ mban ŋaŋɨndɨv eŋgwar han nzɨ andɨŋ imbɨr kaŋ wandɨramŋgɨn amar.
“I will ask you one question,” Jesus replied, “and if you answer Me, I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things.
30 Eŋambɨr Jonɨmb osa anchɨ han yambɨŋ ŋazɨkŋirɨŋgwi ŋambiahanj amar. Han Yakŋ Ohɨrav ndɨn kaz ranj arar njɨhamŋgɨn oh o wɨram hamb ndɨn kamŋgɨz ranj arar njɨhamŋgɨn amar.
John’s baptism—was it from heaven or from men? Answer Me!”
31 Mach, mbɨ mbon mbon mbanave kamŋgɨmar. Arɨ Yakŋ Ohɨrav ndɨn kaz ranj arar kamɨrɨŋaŋg kɨrɨm mbɨ kandari arɨmŋgɨmar. Utɨndɨv amɨ ndɨnɨh eŋambɨrun njɨhi aŋkarɨpɨr njɨhamɨmah ramŋgan arar kandari toh arɨmŋgɨmar.
They deliberated among themselves what they should answer: “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will ask, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’
32 Kɨrɨm arɨ kamɨrɨŋ wɨram hamb ndɨn kamŋgɨz ranj arar kamɨrɨŋ arɨmŋgɨmar. Mbɨ wɨram akŋ anchɨ akŋndɨv ezandɨkŋahambɨmŋgɨmar. Wɨram akŋ anchɨ akŋ hamb Jon ndɨnɨh wɨram Yakŋ Ohɨrand ya injambɨr ahe kanj arar njɨhamŋgɨmar.
But if we say, ‘From men’...” they were afraid of the people, for they all held that John truly was a prophet.
33 Handɨv Jisasɨnd ya han mbɨŋ ke kamŋgɨmar. Arɨ mɨwarɨm arɨmŋgɨmar. Avɨz Jisasɨv ndɨŋ kamar. Nzez nzɨ andɨŋ mɨkandɨram ensa ohɨra han nzɨhandɨh ŋe ntɨŋ mban ŋin han amar.
So they answered, “We do not know.” And Jesus replied, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
