Now as they came to Jerusalem, they were close to Bethphage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, and 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 opposite us. As soon as you enter it, you will find a colt that has never been ridden. Untie it and bring it to me.
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?' you should say, 'The Lord has need of it and will immediately send it back 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.
They went away and found a colt tied at a door outside on the open street, and they untied it.
5 Avɨz wɨram kɨra ikwɨm aŋkwañɨhɨrɨmŋgɨmar hamb ndɨŋ mbanave amarɨmŋgɨmar. Amɨ undɨmaj utɨzɨŋɨn are donki nor mban inɨmbɨmŋgɨn arɨmŋgɨmar.
Some people were standing there and said to them, “What are you doing, untying that 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 spoke to them as Jesus told them, and the people let them go their way.

The two disciples brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks on it so Jesus could ride 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 spread branches they had cut from the fields.

Those who went before him and those who followed shouted, “Hosanna! Blessed is the one 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.

Then Jesus entered into Jerusalem and went into the temple and looked around at everything. Now, the time being 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 returned from Bethany, he 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 from far away a fig tree that had leaves, he went to see if he could find any fruit on it, and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves, for 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)
He spoke to it, “No one will ever eat fruit from you 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.

They came to Jerusalem, and he entered the temple and began to cast out the sellers and the buyers in the temple. He turned over the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold pigeons.
16 Ave mbɨ ndɨŋ erokare kamar. Hanɨhan utuhutuh han Yakŋ Ohɨrand marɨvai oram ohɨrand imbɨz unchaŋ hɨro hɨrai rar hɨrandamŋgɨmɨn amar.
He did not allow anyone to carry anything through the temple that could be sold.

He taught them and said, “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.
The chief priests and the scribes heard what he had said, and they looked for a way to kill him. For they feared him because the entire crowd was amazed at his teaching.
19 Mach, nanempand zuh haŋ Jisasɨv sezɨrmen Jerusalem erere omŋgɨmar.
When evening came, they left 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 walked by in the morning, they saw the fig tree withered away to 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 and said, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree you cursed has withered away.”
22 Avɨz Jisasɨv ndɨŋ kamar. Amɨ Achakɨñŋam njɨhi aŋkarɨpɨr ŋe njɨhambar amar.
Jesus answered them, “Have faith in God.

Truly I say to you that whoever says to this mountain, 'Get up and cast yourself into the sea,' and if he does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he said will happen, that is what God will do.
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 say to you: Everything you pray and ask for, believe that you received it, and it will be yours.

When you stand and pray, you must forgive whatever you have against anyone, so that your Father who is in heaven will also forgive you 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.
They came to Jerusalem again. As Jesus was walking in the temple, the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders came 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.
They said to him, “By what authority do you do these things, and who gave you the authority to do them?”

Jesus said to them, “I will ask you one question. Tell me and I will tell you by what authority I do 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.
The baptism of John, was it from heaven or from men? Answer me.”

They discussed between themselves and argued and said, “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 if we say, 'From men,' ... .” They were afraid of the people, for everyone was convinced that John 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.
Then they answered Jesus and said, “We do not know.” Then Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
