Matthew 16
1 The Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing him, asked him to show them a sign from heaven.
Kutu sin mwet Pharisee ac mwet Sadducee su tuku nu yurin Jesus elos kena sruokilya ke kas lal, ouinge elos sap elan oru sie mwe akul lulap nu selos in akkalemye lah God El welul.
2 But he answered them, “When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’
Tusruk Jesus el topuk ac fahk nu selos, “Ke pacl se faht uh ac tili uh, kowos fahk mu, ‘Len lutu uh ac wona mweyen srusra pe kusra uh.’
3 In the morning, ‘It will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ Hypocrites! You know how to discern the appearance of the sky, but you can’t discern the signs of the times!
Ac toang na ke lotutang uh kowos ac fahk mu, ‘Ac afi, mweyen srusra ac lohsrlosr pe kusra uh.’ Kowos ku in palye pacl uh ke kowos liye pe kusra uh, tusruk kowos tia ku in aketeya kalmen akul ma sikyak in pacl inge uh!
4 An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and there will be no sign given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah.” He left them and departed.
Fuka lupan koluk ac pilesru God lun mwet in pacl inge uh! Ya kowos ke liye sie mwe akul lulap? Mo! Pwayena mwe akul kowos ac liye pa mwe akul su tuh sikyak nu sel Jonah.” Na el fahsr lukelos ac som liki acn sac.
5 The disciples came to the other side and had forgotten to take bread.
Ke mwet tumal lutlut elos kalla nu lefahl laco ke lulu uh, elos mulkunla in utuk bread.
6 Jesus said to them, “Take heed and beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
Jesus el fahk nu selos, “Karinginkowosyang liki mwe pulol lun mwet Pharisee ac mwet Sadducee.”
7 They reasoned among themselves, saying, “We brought no bread.”
Na elos mutawauk in asiyuki inmasrlolos sifacna ac fahk, “El fahk ma inge mweyen kut mulkunla in utuk bread tuku.”
8 Jesus, perceiving it, said, “Why do you reason among yourselves, you of little faith, because you have brought no bread?
Jesus el etu ma elos fahk uh, na el siyuk selos, “Efu ku kowos sramsram inmasrlowos lah wangin bread yuruwos? Arulana srikla lalulalfongi lowos an!
9 Don’t you yet perceive or remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up,
Ya soenna kalem suwos? Ya kowos tia esam ke nga kunsalik lof limekosr nu sin mwet tausin limekosr ah? Fotoh ekasr kowos tuh nwakla ke luwen mongo ah?
10 or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
Ac ke lof itkosr nu sin mwet tausin akosr ah? Fotoh ekasr kowos tuh nwakla ah?
11 How is it that you don’t perceive that I didn’t speak to you concerning bread? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
Efu ku tia kalem suwos lah nga tia kaskas ke bread? Karinginkowosyang liki mwe pulol lun mwet Pharisee ac mwet Sadducee uh!”
12 Then they understood that he didn’t tell them to beware of the yeast of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Na mwet tumal lutlut elos fah akilenak lah el tia kas in sensenkunulos ke mwe akpulolye bread, a ke mwe luti lun mwet Pharisee ac mwet Sadducee.
13 Now when Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?”
Jesus el som nu yen ma oan apkuran nu Caesarea Philippi, ac el siyuk sin mwet tumal lutlut, “Mwet uh fahk mu su Wen nutin Mwet uh?”
14 They said, “Some say John the Baptizer, some, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
Ac elos fahk, “Kutu fahk mu John Baptais, ac kutu mu Elijah, ac kutu fahk mu Jeremiah, ku sie sin mwet palu.”
15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”
Na el siyuk selos, “Ac kowos, kowos mu su nga uh?”
16 Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
Na Simon Peter el topuk ac fahk, “Kom pa Christ, Wen nutin God moul.”
17 Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.
Ac Jesus el fahk, “Mwe insewowo nu sum, Simon, wen natul John! Ma pwaye se inge tia fwackyuk nu sum sin kutena mwet, a itukot nu sum sin Papa tumuk inkusrao.
18 I also tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my assembly, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it. (Hadēs g86)
Ke ma inge nga fahk nu sum, kom pa Peter, su kalmac uh pa ‘eot,’ ac fin eot se inge nga ac fah musai church luk; na finne misa, tia pac ku in kunausla. (Hadēs g86)
19 I will give to you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven; and whatever you release on earth will have been released in heaven.”
Nga fah sot nu sum key nu ke Tokosrai lun kusrao. Ma kom tia lela fin faclu ac fah tia pac lela inkusrao, ac ma kom lela fin faclu ac fah lela pac inkusrao.”
20 Then he commanded the disciples that they should tell no one that he was Jesus the Christ.
Na Jesus el sap mwet tumal lutlut in tiana fahk nu sin kutena mwet lah el pa Christ.
21 From that time, Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.
In pacl sac lac, Jesus el kaskas kalem na nu sin mwet tumal lutlut ac fahk, “Nga enenu na in som nu Jerusalem ac akkeokyeyuk sin un mwet matu, mwet tol fulat, ac mwet luti Ma Sap uh. Ac fah anwuki nga, tusruktu tukun len tolu, nga fah sifil akmoulyeyukyak.”
22 Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, “Far be it from you, Lord! This will never be done to you.”
Peter el solalla nu saya, ac mutawauk in kael ac fahk, “God El tia ku in lela in ouingan, Leum! Ma inge tia ku in sikyak nu sum!”
23 But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me, for you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of men.”
Jesus el forang nu sel Peter ac fahk, “Fahla likiyu, Satan! Kom sie mwe tukulkul nu sik, mweyen nunak lom ingan tia ma tuku sin God me, a ma sin mwet uh.”
24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.
Na Jesus el fahk nu sin mwet tumal lutlut, “Kutena mwet fin lungse wiyu, el enenu in lafwekunul sifacna, srukak sakseng lal ac fahsr tukuk.
25 For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it.
Tuh el su lungse molela moul lal, ac fah tuhlac lukel; a el su moul lal tuhlac lukel keik, el fah konauk moul lal.
26 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life?
Ac tuh mwe mea nu sin sie mwet el fin eis lal faclu nufon, a moul lal tuhlac? Wangin sripa, mweyen wangin ma el ac ku in sang in sifil molela moul lal.
27 For the Son of Man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will render to everyone according to his deeds.
Tuh Wen nutin Mwet el apkuran in tuku in wolana lun Papa tumal wi lipufan lal, na el ac fah sang ma lacne nu sin kais sie mwet, fal nu ke orekma lal.
28 Most certainly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste of death until they see the Son of Man coming in his Kingdom.”
Pwayena nga fahk nu suwos, oasr kutu sin mwet inge su ac fah tiana misa nwe ke na elos liye ke Wen nutin Mwet el tuku in tokosrai lal.”
