When they drew near to Jerusalem and came to Bethsphage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two of his disciples ahead
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 immediately as you enter it you will find a colt tied there, on which no one has 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 says to you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ say, ‘The Lord has need of it.’ Then he will immediately send it here.”
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 a colt outside in the street, tied at a door, and they untied it.
5 Avɨz wɨram kɨra ikwɨm aŋkwañɨhɨrɨmŋgɨmar hamb ndɨŋ mbanave amarɨmŋgɨmar. Amɨ undɨmaj utɨzɨŋɨn are donki nor mban inɨmbɨmŋgɨn arɨmŋgɨmar.
But some of the people who were standing there said to them, “What are you doing, 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.
They answered them just as Jesus had instructed, and the people let them go.
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 brought the colt to Jesus and put their garments on 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 people spread their garments on the road, and others cut down leafy branches from the trees and also spread them on the road.
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.
Those who went ahead of him and those who followed were crying out, “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 kingdom of our father David that is coming in the name of the Lord! 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. When he had looked around at everything, he went out to Bethany with the twelve, since the hour was already late.
12 Mach, uiv ŋakaz mbɨ aiampɨra Betani erere ondamŋgɨz, Jisasɨv unsandɨv mamar.
On the next day, as they went out from 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 that had leaves, he went to find out if it had any fruit. When he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, because 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)
In response Jesus said to the fig tree, “May no one ever eat fruit from yoʋ again!” And his disciples heard it. (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.
Then they came to Jerusalem, and Jesus entered the temple courts and began driving out those who were selling and buying there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who were 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 anything 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 he began to teach the people, saying, “Is it not written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer for all 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 scribes and the chief priests heard this, they began looking for a way to destroy him, for they were afraid of him, because the entire crowd was astonished at his teaching.
19 Mach, nanempand zuh haŋ Jisasɨv sezɨrmen Jerusalem erere omŋgɨmar.
And when evening came, he 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.
In the morning, as they went along, they saw that the fig tree had 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.
Then Peter remembered what had happened and said to Jesus, “Rabbi, behold, the fig tree that yoʋ cursed has withered!”
22 Avɨz Jisasɨv ndɨŋ kamar. Amɨ Achakɨñŋam njɨhi aŋkarɨpɨr ŋe njɨhambar amar.
In response Jesus said to them, “Have faith in God.
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.
For truly I say to you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is going to happen, whatever he says will be granted to 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 are receiving 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 whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven will also forgive you your trespasses.
But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses.”
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.
Again they came to Jerusalem, and as Jesus was walking in the temple courts, the chief priests, the scribes, and the 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.
and said to him, “By what authority are yoʋ doing these things? And who gave yoʋ this 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.
Jesus answered them, “I will also ask you one question; answer me, and 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.
Did John's authority to baptize come 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.
So they considered it among themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘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 shall we say, ‘From men’?”—they were afraid of the people, for everyone thought that John was truly 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 Jesus, “We do not know.” In response Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
