Luka 13
1 Kubi kone among anit bellinghe kitene na Galiliyawa, alenge na Bilatus wa munu nmyi mine, kitin ngutunu nmyi.
Just at that time people came to tell Him about the Galilaeans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.
2 Yesu kauwa aworo nani, “Ulin kpilizu nafo a Galitiyawa ale katin kagizine nin kulapi, nara idin niu nlo libau we?
"Do you suppose," He asked in reply, "that those Galilaeans were worse sinners than the mass of the Galilaeans, because this happened to them?
3 Na nani ba, meng nbelling munu, asa na anung su udiu kutyin ba vat mine iba nanu nloli libauwe lineme.
I tell you, certainly not. On the contrary, if you are not penitent you will all perish as they did.
4 Sa anit likure nin kulir nanyan Nsiliyom, ale na kisoro wa diu ki molo nani, idin kpilizu nafo inung wa din kulapi ikatina vat nanit Urshalima?
Or those eighteen on whom the tower at Siloam fell, do you suppose they had failed in their duty more than all the rest of the people who live in Jerusalem?
5 Na nani ba, meng bellin munu, asa na anung su udiu katyin ba vat mine ba nanu tutun.”
I tell you, certainly not. On the contrary, if you do not repent you will all perish just as they did."
6 Yesu belle nani tinan tigoldo, “Umang wa bilisu kupau nanya kunen me, ada pizira kumate na ase ba.
And He gave them the following parable. "A man," He said, "who had a fig-tree growing in his garden came to look for fruit on it and could find none.
7 Unite belle unan ncaa kunene, 'Yene akus atatari ale asa nda nnan da se kumat kutca kone, na nse imonku ba, werne kunin, bara iyang ku wa nanza kunene?'
So he said to the gardener, "'See, this is the third year I have come to look for fruit on this fig-tree and cannot find any. Cut it down. Why should so much ground be actually wasted?'
8 Unan ncaa kunene kauwa aworo, 'Suna kunin nlo likuse, mang ba wuzu kuwu, in tighe utanki.
"But the gardener pleaded, "'Leave it, Sir, this year also, till I have dug round it and manured it.
9 Asa natah kumat likus ndake, ucaun, asa na ana ba, uwerne kunin!'”
If after that it bears fruit, well and good; if it does not, then you shall cut it down.'"
10 Nene Yesu wadin ndursuzuwe nanya kutyin nlirag namon Asabbath,
Once He was teaching on the Sabbath in one of the synagogues
11 umon uwani wa duku kikane, wenge na adimun nakus likure nin kulir, uruhu unazang, nkuzu kidowo wa seghe, aso kangarang awasa ayisina dert ba.
where a woman was present who for eighteen years had been a confirmed invalid: she was bent double, and was unable to lift herself to her full height.
12 Kubi na Yesu nyene ghe, ayicila ghe aworo, “Shino nin nkuzu kidowo fe.”
But Jesus saw her, and calling to her, He said to her, "Woman, you are free from your weakness."
13 A tarda ucara me kitene me, dedei ayisina dert, azazina Kutelle.
And He put His hands on her, and she immediately stood upright and began to give glory to God.
14 Inung ago nanya kutyin nlirag, lanza ayi, bara Yesu nnaghe ushinu liyiru nasabar. Ago we kauwa, iworo ligoze, “Ayiri kutocin duku alonge na iwasa isu katuwa, dan lelan shin ninghinu a na liyiri Nasabbath ba.”
Then the Warden of the Synagogue, indignant that Jesus had cured her on a Sabbath, said to the crowd, "There are six days in the week on which people ought to work. On those days therefore come and get yourselves cured, and not on the Sabbath day."
15 Cikilari kauwa aworo nani, “Anan rusuzu nati, na anug sa itere nijaki sa innah kite mine, idi ni nani nmyen liri Nasabbath ba?
But the Lord's reply to him was, "Hypocrites, does not each of you on the Sabbath untie his bullock or his ass from the stall and lead him to water?
16 Bara tutun ule ushono Ibrahim, ulenge na Sheitan ntereghe akus likure nin kulir, itereghe na iwasa ibunku ghe liyiri Nasabbath ba?”
And this woman, daughter of Abraham as she is, whom Satan had bound for no less than eighteen years, was she not to be loosed from this chain because it is the Sabbath day?"
17 Na abelle ile imone, vat nale na idi nivira nanghe lanza incing, vat ligoze wadi su liburi liboo, kitene nimon ididia na asu.
When He had said this, all His opponents were ashamed, while the whole multitude was delighted at the many glorious things continually done by Him.
18 Ame Yesu woro nani, “Kipin tigoo Kutelle di nafo iyaghari? Nin nyaghari nba gwadu kinin muna?
This prompted Him to say, "What is the Kingdom of God like? and to what shall I compare it?
19 Kidi nafo fimus kuku, fongo na unit nyawna amin nfilo nanya kunen me, in foni nkuno fiso kutca kudia, anyin kusho ani nda kee addo mine tilanghe.”
It is like a mustard seed which a man drops into the soil in his garden, and it grows and becomes a tree in whose branches the birds roost."
20 Tutun aworo, “Min nyanghari nba gwadu kipin tigoo Kutelle muna?
And again He said, "To what shall I compare the Kingdom of God?
21 Kidi nafo uyist na uwani nyauna, amunu nin nayanga atat an nbulun, udu kubi na umuzo.”
It is like yeast which a woman takes and buries in a bushel of flour, to work there till the whole is leavened."
22 Yesu wa do lizzi nanya kipin nin nigbir libau udu Urshulima a dursuzo nani.
He was passing through town after town and village after village, steadily proceeding towards Jerusalem,
23 Umong woroghe, “Cikilari, anan nse ntucu ba karnu ba?” A belle nani,
when some one asked Him, "Sir, are there but few who are to be saved?"
24 “Suun nnono inan pira kibulun kishuut, bara anit gbardang ba piziru, na iba se upiruwe ba.
"Strain every nerve to force your way in through the narrow gate," He answered; "for multitudes, I tell you, will endeavour to find a way in and will not succeed.
25 Kubi na unan kilari nnuzu, amin ntursu kibulun, anung ba yisinu ndas inin riyuu kibulun woro, 'Cikilari, Cikilari, tiba piru.' Ame ba kauwu aworo munu, 'Na meng yiru munu, sa inuzu nwere.'
As soon as the Master of the house shall have risen and shut the door, and you have begun to stand outside and knock at the door and say, "'Sir, open the door for us' --"'I do not know you,' He answers; 'you are no friends of mine.'
26 Aning ba woru, 'Tina tii tisono nbun fe, udursuzu tibau bite.'
"Then you will plead, "'We have eaten and drunk in your company and you have taught in our streets.'
27 Ame ba kauwa nani, 'Meng bellin minu, na meng yiru kika na inuzu ku ba. Cacanan kupo nighe, anan magunta.'
"But He will reply, "'I tell you that you are no friends of mine. Begone from me, all of you, wrongdoers that you are.'
28 Kubi ba dak na iba su kuculu nin yaru nayini, kubi na iyene Ibrahim, Ishaku, Yakubu, nin vat na nan nliru nin nnu Kutelle, nanya kipin tigo me, - anung inutun munu ndas.
"There will be the weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the Prophets in the Kingdom of God, and yourselves being driven far away.
29 Iba da duru unuzu nasari annass inyi, inani nshino idin nlii nimonli kutebul kipin tigoo Kutelle.
They will come from east and west, from north and south, and will sit down at the banquet in the Kingdom of God.
30 Yinon nani, unan ncizinu ba so unan kidung, unan kidung da so unan ncizinu.”
And I tell you that some now last will then be first, and some now first will then be last."
31 Kubi baat, amon Afarsayawa da kiti me iworo, “Caan suuna kikane bara Hirudus dinin su amollufi.”
Just at that time there came some Pharisees who warned Him, saying, "Leave this place and continue your journey; Herod means to kill you."
32 Yesu woro “Caan idi bellin kinyinyo kane, 'Ndin kaluzu nagbergenu nshizhino nin tikonu, kitimone nin nkui, a liyiri lin tat, nba malu katuwa nighe.'
"Go," He replied, "and take this message to that fox: "'See, to-day and to-morrow I am driving out demons and effecting cures, and on the third day I finish my course.'
33 Nanya nko yang, usoyi doli, ntunun kitimone nin nkui, nin liyiri ndortine, na iyinna imolu unan nliru nin nnu Kutelle ndas nin Urshulima ba.
"Yet I must continue my journey to-day and to-morrow and the day following; for it is not conceivable that a Prophet should perish outside of Jerusalem.
34 Urshulima, Urshulima, te na udin molusu anan nliru nin nnu Kutelle ufiliso alenge na ina tu nani kitife. Ndinin su npitirin nono fe, nafo kukuru na asa a pitirino nono me nanya nagilit nafe nyinna nani ba.
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou who murderest the Prophets and stonest those who have been sent to thee, how often have I desired to gather thy children just as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you would not come!
35 Yene nfillo kilari fe, meng bellin fi, na iba kuru uyenei ba, se ubelle, 'Unan nmariarife ulenge na uba dak nanya lisan Cikilare.'”
See, your house is left to you. But I tell you that you will never see me again until you say, 'Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!'"
