Mateo 11
1 Guero guertha cedin Iesusec bere hamabi discipuluey manamendu emaitea acabatu çuenean, parti baitzedin handic iracats eta predica leçançat hayén hirietan.
After Jesus had finished giving directions to his twelve Disciples, he left that place in order to teach and preach in their towns.
2 Eta Ioannesec presoindeguian ençunic Christen obrác, igorriric bere discipuluetaric biga,
Now John had heard in prison what the Christ was doing, and he sent a message by his disciples,
3 Erran cieçon, Hi aiz ethorteco cen hura, ala berce baten beguira gaude?
and asked —” Are you ‘The Coming One,’ or are we to look for someone else?”
4 Eta ihardesten çuela Iesusec erran ciecén, Çoazte eta conta ietzoçue Ioannesi, ençuten eta ikusten dituçuen gauçác:
The answer of Jesus to the question was — “Go and report to John what you hear and see —
5 Itsuéc ikustea recrubatzen duté, eta mainguäc badabiltza, sorhayoac chahutzen dirade, eta gorréc ençuten duté, hilac resuscitatzen dirade, eta Euangelioa paubrey denuntiatzen çaye.
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 Eta dohatsu da scandalizaturen eztena nitan.
And blessed is the man who finds no hindrance in me.”
7 Eta hec ioaiten ciraden beçala, has cedin Iesus erraiten populuari Ioannesez, Ceren ikustera ilki içan çarete desertura? haiceaz erabilten den canabera baten?
While these men were going back, Jesus began to say to the crowds with reference to John:
8 Baina ceren ikustera ilki içan çarete? guiçon abillamendu preciosoz veztitu baten? huná, abillamendu preciosoac ekarten dituztenac, reguén etchetan dirade.
“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 Baina ceren ikustera ilki içan çarete? Propheta baten? bay diotsuet eta Propheta bainoagoaren.
What, then, did you go for? To see a Prophet? Yes, I tell you, and far more than a Prophet.
10 Ecen haur da ceinez scribatua baita, Huná, nic igorten diat neure mandataria hire beguitharte aitzinean, ceinec hire bidea appainduren baitu hire aitzinean.
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 Eguiaz erraiten drauçuet, ezta ilki emaztetaric iayo diradenén artean nehor, Ioannes Baptista baino handiagoric: guciagatic-ere ceruètaco resumaco chipiena hura baino handiago da.
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 Eta Ioannes Baptistaren egunetaric oraindrano, ceruètaco resumari bortha eguiten çayo, eta keichuéc harrapatzen dute hura.
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 Ecen Propheta guciéc eta Legueac Ioannesganano prophetizatu vkan duté.
For the teaching of all the Prophets and of the Law continued till the time of John;
14 Eta, baldin nahi baduçue recebitu, haur da Elias ethorteco cena.
and — if you are ready to accept it — John is himself the Elijah who was destined to come.
15 Ençuteco beharriric duenac, ençun beça.
Let him who has ears hear.
16 Baina norequin comparaturen dut generatione haur? Merkatuan iarriric dauden, eta bere laguney oihuz dagozten haourtchoac beçalaco da,
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 Ceinéc baitioite, Chirula soinu eguin drauçuegu, eta etzarete dançatu: eressiz cantatu drauçuegu, eta eztuçue deithoreric eguin.
‘We have played the flute for you, but you have not danced; We have wailed, but you have not mourned.’
18 Ecen ethorri da Ioannes iaten ez edaten eztuela, eta erraiten duté, Deabrua du.
For, when John came, neither eating nor drinking, men said ‘He has a demon in him’;
19 Ethorri da guiçonaren Semea iaten eta edaten duela, eta dioite, Horra, guiçon gormanta eta hordia, publicanoén eta vicitze gaichtotacoén adisquidea. Baina iustificatu içan da sapientiá bere haourréz.
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 Orduan has cequién hunela reprochatzen haren verthuteric anhitz eguin içan cen hiriey, ceren emendatu etziraden:
Then Jesus began to reproach the towns in which most of his miracles had been done, because they had not repented:
21 Maledictione hiri Corazin, maledictione hiri Bethsaida: ecen baldin Tyren eta Sidonen eguin içan balirade çuec baithan eguin içan diraden verthuteac, aspaldi çacurequin eta hautsequin emendatu ciratequeen.
“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 Etare diotsuet, Tyr eta Sidon iudicioco egunean çuec baino emequiago tractatuac içanen diradela.
Yet, I tell you, the doom of Tyre and Sidon will be more bearable in the ‘Day of Judgment’ than yours.
23 Eta hi Capernaum cerurano altchatu içan aicena iffernurano beheraturen aiz: ecen baldin Sodoman eguin içan balirade hi baithan eguin içan diraden verthuteac, egungo egunerano egon çateán. (Hadēs g86)
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 g86)
24 Etare badiotsuet, ecen Sodomacoac hi baino emequiago tractatuac içanen diradela iudicioco egunean.
Yet, I tell you, the doom of Sodom will be more bearable in the ‘Day of Judgment’ than yours.”
25 Dembora hartan ihardesten çuela Iesusec erran ceçan, Aitá, ceruco eta lurreco Iauná, esquerrac rendatzen drauzquiát, ceren estali baitrauztec gauça hauc çuhurréy eta adituey, eta manifestatu baitrauztec haour chipiey.
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 Bay Aitá, ceren hala içan baita hire placer ona.
Yes, Father, I thank thee that this has seemed good to thee.
27 Gauça guciac niri neure Aitaz eman çaizquit: eta nehorc eztu eçagutzen Semea Aitác baicen: ezeta Aita nehorc eztu eçagutzen Semeac baicen, eta nori-ere Semeac manifestatu nahi vkanen baitrauca.
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 Çatozte enegana fatigatuac eta cargatuac çareten guciác, eta nic paussu emanen drauçuet çuey.
Come to me, all you who toil and are burdened, and I will give you rest!
29 Har eçaçue ene vztarria çuen gainera, eta ikas eçaçue eneganic ecen eme naicela eta bihotzez humil: eta çuen arimençát paussu eridenen duçue.
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 Ecen ene vztarria aisit da, eta ene cargá arin.
for my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
