Matiyu 28
1 Nene na Asabat wa cinu ukatu, a icina upiru liri lin finnun nsati, Maremu Magdalin nin leli Mareme da ida yene kiseke.
After (the Sabbath/the Jewish day of rest) [ended], on Sunday morning at dawn, Mary from Magdala and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.
2 Itunna iyene ina su uzulunu kutyin kang, bara kunan kadura Kutelle wa tolu unuzu kitene kani, ada turno litale, anin so kitene linin.
Suddenly there was a strong earthquake. [At the same time] an angel from God came down from heaven. He [went to the tomb and] rolled the stone away [from the entrance so that everyone could see that the tomb was empty]. Then he sat on the stone.
3 Uyenju me wadi nafo umalizunu nwuru, a imon me wa pugun nafo aduga.
His appearance was [as bright] [SIM] as lightning, and his clothes were as white as snow.
4 Anan cawe nketuzu ninfiu inin so nafo abi.
The guards shook because they were very afraid. Then they became [completely motionless], as though they were dead.
5 Unan kadura Kutelle lira nin nawane, aworo nani, “Yenje iwa lanza fiu, bara nyiru idin pizuru Yesue ku, urika na iwa kotinghe.
The angel said to the two women, “You should not be afraid! I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was {whom they} (nailed to a cross/crucified).
6 Na adi kikane ba, amal fitu, nafo na awa belin minu. Dan ida yene kiti kanga na Cikilare wa non ku.
He is not here! [God] has (caused him to be alive again/raised him [from the dead]), just like [Jesus] told you [would happen!] Come and see the place where his body lay!
7 Can mas idi bellin nono katwa me, 'Afita nanya nanan kul. Yenen amini nbun mine udu Ugalili.' Ima yenughe kikane, yenen, nbelin minu.”
Then go quickly and tell his disciples, ‘He has risen from the dead! He will go ahead of you to Galilee [district]. You will see him there.’ [Pay attention to what] I have told you!”
8 Awane tunna inya kiti kisseke nin fiu nin nayiabo kan, nin cum ndi bellin nono katwa me.
So the women left the tomb quickly. They were afraid, but they were [also] very joyful. They ran to tell us disciples [what had happened].
9 Yesu tunna azuro nan ghinu aworo, “Ishawan.” Awane da, ikpa abunu me, inin sughe usujaida.
Suddenly, [as they were running], Jesus appeared to them. He said, “Greetings!” The women came close to him. They knelt down and clasped his feet and worshipped him.
10 Yesu nin woro nani, “Yenje iwa lanza fiu. Can idi bellin nuana inya udu Ugalili. Kikane, ima yenii.”
Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid! Go and tell (all my disciples/all those who have been accompanying me) that they should go to Galilee. They will see me there.”
11 Na awane wadi ncin, vat nanan cawe pira nanya kipine idi bellin Ugo na Prieste vat nimon ilenge ifara.
While the women were going, some of the soldiers who had been guarding [the tomb] went into the city. They reported to the chief priests everything that had happened.
12 Na a Prieste wa zuro nin nakune isu ulire nan ghinu, ina anan tecu natine ikurufun gbardang.
So the chief priests and Jewish elders met together. They made a plan [to explain why the tomb was empty]. They gave the soldiers a lot of money [as a bribe].
13 Inin woro nani, “Belle among non katwan 'Yesu' na dak nin kitik ida tuzu kidowo me a arik yita nmoro.'
They said, “Tell people, ‘His disciples came during the night and stole his [body] while we were sleeping.’
14 Asa uliru ulele nduru kitin gumna, tima sonu litime na ama su minu imonimon ba.”
If the governor hears [MTY] about this, we ourselves will make sure that he does not get angry [and punish you]. [So you will not have to worry].”
15 Asoje sere ikurfughe, itunna isu nafo na ibelle nani isu. Uliru ulele mala kiti nanya na Yahudawa, uleo ubun tutung udak ko kube.
So the soldiers took the money and did as they were told {as [the chief priests and elders] told them}. And this story has been told {People have told this story} among the Jews to the very day [that I am writing] this.
16 Ama inung nono katwa likure nin warum nya udu Ugalili, udu likup longo na Yesu wa woro nani ido.
[Later we] eleven [disciples] went to Galilee [district]. We went to the mountain where Jesus had told [us] to go.
17 Na iyeneghe, isughe usujada, among yitan shaka me.
We saw him [there] and worshipped him. But some of [us] doubted [that it was really Jesus, and that he had become alive again].
18 Yesu da kiti mine, alira nan ghinu aworo, “Likara vat kitene kani nin lin kutyin, inani nacara ning.
Then Jesus came [close] to [us] and said, “[My Father] has given me all authority over everything and everyone in heaven and on earth.
19 Bara nani, can nanya nipinpin nyii idi su uwazi ise nono katwa. Ishintu nani nmyen nanya lissa Ncif, nin Saun, a Uruhu ulau.
So go, and [using my authority, teach my message to] people of all ethnic groups so that they may become my disciples. Baptize them [to be under the authority of] [MTY] my Father, and of me, his Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
