Luka 18
1 A benle nani tinan tigoldo intizu nlira, na nibinai mene nwati seeng ba,
He also spoke a parable to them that they must always pray, and not give up,
2 a benle, “umong unan wucun nliru wadin kan kagbiri, unam wucun nliru une wadi nin fiu Kutelle ba, tutng na adin yenju unit nin titti litiba.
saying, "There was a judge in a certain city who did not fear God, and did not respect people.
3 Umon uwani wa duku na ules me wa ku nanya kagbiri kane, asu ada kitime kolome liyiri, abenle, 'Buuni anan nayi asirne mpardai.'
A widow was in that city, and she often came to him, saying, 'Give me justice against my adversary.'
4 Kubi kata piit na adinin su a buunghe ba, na I dandauna ba a woro liti me, 'Bara na indin lanzu fui Kutelle sa unit ba,
He would not for a while, but afterward he said to himself, 'Though I neither fear God, nor respect people,
5 vat nani uwanin salin nles ulele din fizwi kibinai, nma buunghe nwusughe kedegene, bara a wa tii kudirya nin dasu me vat liri.'”
yet because this widow bothers me, I will give her justice, or else she will wear me out by her continual coming.'"
6 Cikilare nin woro, “Lanzan imon ile na unan wucun nlire mbele.
The Lord said, "Listen to what the unrighteous judge says.
7 Nene na Kutelle ba bulu ale na ana fere nami na idin ku culu uwui nin kitik udu kiti me ba? Na aba ti ayiasheu nin yenuba?
Won't God avenge his chosen ones, who are crying out to him day and night, and yet he exercises patience with them?
8 Mbeling minu au aba saru nani dedai sa unanzu kubi. Bara nani Gono nit wadak uyi ulele aba se anan yenu-sa-uyenu kuwa?”
I tell you that he will avenge them quickly. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?"
9 A kuru abenle tiwankari tone nale na inun din yenju ati mene anit alau wari. Inani din narsi amon anit,
He spoke also this parable to certain people who were convinced of their own righteousness, and who despised all others.
10 “An waba wa doo nanya kutii nlira iba ti nlira - warum wadi Kufarsayawa nin nanbe unan sesun gandu.
"Two men went up into the temple to pray; one was a Pharisee, and the other was a tax collector.
11 Kufarsayawe yisina a taa imusin immong inlire nin liti me, 'Kutelle ngode fi bara na meng masin nafo among anit ale na akiriyari. anan salin nlau, anan nuzu nin naulani a buu, sa nafo ule unan sesun ngandue ba.
The Pharisee stood and prayed to himself like this: 'God, I thank you, that I am not like other people, extortioners, unrighteous, adulterers, or even like this tax collector.
12 In din su ukotu nayi tiba nanya na yiri kuzoor, in din nizu uzakka vat ni mon ile na in dumun.'
I fast twice a week. I give tithes of all that I get.'
13 Bara nani ame unan sesun ngandue yisina piit, na awa sa a fya iyizi me ayene kitene kanin ba, bara nani a reo figiri me, a woro, 'Kutelle, lanza in kune-kune ning, unam kulapi.'
But the tax collector, standing far away, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me, a sinner.'
14 Nbelin minu, unit une wa nyaa udu kilari lau, na nafo unan mba me ba, bara na vat ule na a ghantina liti me, iba tultinghe, ule na a tiltino liti me ima ghantinghe.”
I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted."
15 A nite wa din dasughe nin nono nibebene, anan dudo nani, nono katwa me yene, ikpada nani.
Now they were also bringing their babies to him, that he might touch them. But when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them.
16 Yesu yicila nani udak kitime, aworo, 'Sunam nono nibebene dak kitining, na iwa wantin nani ba, bara na kilari tigoo Kutelle kin nimus nalelere.
Jesus summoned them, saying, "Allow the little children to come to me, and do not hinder them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
17 Kidegene indin belu minu, vat inle na ama seru kilari tigoo Kutelle nafo nono naneba to na ama piru ba.”
Truly, I tell you, whoever does not receive the Kingdom of God like a little child, he will in no way enter into it."
18 Umong unan tigoo tiringhe, aworo, “Ku mallami kucine, iyanghari ma ti inse upirun nlai sa ligang?” (aiōnios g166)
A certain ruler asked him, saying, "Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit everlasting life?" (aiōnios g166)
19 Yesu woroghe, “Iyangharin ta udin yicwi ucine? Na umong ucine duku ba, ma se Kutelle cas.
Jesus asked him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good, except one—God.
20 U yiru uduka - na uma piziru awani ahemba, na uma molu umong ba, na uma su likiri ba, na uma ti kinu litin mong ba, na tikune kitin cife nin nafene.”
You know the commandments: 'Do not commit adultery,' 'Do not murder,' 'Do not steal,' 'Do not give false testimony,' 'Honor your father and your mother.'"
21 Unam tigoo we woro, “Vat ile imoone ina malu su an duttu gono kibene.”
And he said, "I have kept all these things from my youth up."
22 Na Yesu nlanza nai, a woroghe, “Imun irumari duu fi. Can udi lewu imoon ile na udumun vat ukosu anan sali mun, udak uda dofini, uma nin se kiti lisosin kitene kani.”
When Jesus heard it, he said to him, "You still lack one thing. Sell all that you have, and distribute it to the poor. You will have treasure in heaven. Come, follow me."
23 Na unan nimoon nacare nlanzanani ayi me nana kang, bara na awa di nin nimoon nacara kang.
But when he heard these things, he became very sad, for he was very rich.
24 Yesu na ayeneghe, ayin nanghe anin woro, “Uma yity nin nijasi kang unan nimoon nacara piru kilari tigoo Kutelle!
And Jesus looked at him and said, "How hard it is for those who have riches to enter into the Kingdom of God.
25 Uma katinu nin sheu Kuronkomi piru nanga ligalong nalura nworu unan nimoon nacara piru kilari tigoo Kutelle.”
For it is easier for a camel to enter in through a needle's eye, than for a rich person to enter into the Kingdom of God."
26 Ale na iwa din lanzwe woro, “To ghari ba se utuce?”
Those who heard it said, "Then who can be saved?"
27 Yesu kawa aworo, “Imun ile na idin yenju na iwasa itaa ki ti nanit ba iwa sa itaa kiti Kutelle.”
But he said, "The things which are impossible with man are possible with God."
28 Bitrus woro, “Arikin suna vat imon ile na tidi mun ti nani ndofin fi.”
And Peter said, "Look, we have left our own things and followed you."
29 Yesu nin woro nani, “Kidegene, mbelin minu na umong duku na a cino kinari, sa uwanime sa qwana me, sa una nin cif, sa nono, bara kilari tigoo Kutelle,
He said to them, "Truly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or wife, or brothers, or parents, or children, for the Kingdom of God's sake,
31 Na awa pitirin likure nin naba udu kiti me, a woro nani, “Yenen, ti ma nyiu udu Urshalima, vat nin nimon ile na ina yertin inuzu nanan liru nnuu Kutelle litin Gono nit ima kulu.
He took the twelve aside, and said to them, "Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things that are written through the prophets concerning the Son of Man will be completed.
32 Bara ima nakpughe nacara na wurmi, ima yasughe, ima tighe a lanza incing, inin tufuzunghe ataf.
For he will be delivered up to the non-Jews, will be mocked, treated shamefully, and spit on.
33 I wa malu ukpizughe, ima mulughe liri lin tat aba fitu tutung.”
They will scourge and kill him. On the third day, he will rise again."
34 Na iyinno vat ni le imone ba, too ti gbulanghe wa nyeshin nani, na iyinno imon ile na a wa belin nani ba.
They understood none of these things. This saying was hidden from them, and they did not understand the things that were said.
35 I daa nkang kubi, na Yesu ndaa susut nin Jeriko, umong uduu wa sosin kupoo libau in piziru i filizinghe ikurfung,
It happened, as he came near Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the road, begging.
36 na a lanza ligozi nanit din cinu, a tirino iyanghari nse?
Hearing a crowd going by, he asked what this meant.
37 I belinghe Yesu kunan Nazarat ari din cinu ukatu.
They told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.
38 Bara nan uduuwe fya liwui me, a woro, “Yesu, Gonon Dauda, lanza nkune-kune ning.”
He called out, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me."
39 A lenge na Iwa din cin nbune kpada uduuwe I woroghe a ti tik. Ana kpina liwuiye ku, “Gonon Dauda, lanza nkune-kune ning.”
Those who led the way rebuked him, that he should be quiet; but he shouted all the more, "Son of David, have mercy on me."
40 Yesu yisina daang anin benle nin likara au I dak nin nite kiti me. Na uduuwe nda susut, Yesu tiringhe,
Standing still, Jesus commanded him to be brought to him. When he had come near, he asked him,
41 “I yanghari udinin suu insufi?” A woro, “Cikilari, in di nin suu in yene kiti.”
"What do you want me to do?" He said, "Lord, that I may see again."
42 Yesu woroghe, “Puno iyizi fe, uyinnu-sa uyenu fe nshino nin fi.”
Jesus said to him, "Receive your sight. Your faith has healed you."
43 Kiteene iyizi me puuno kidowo, a nin dofinghe, nruu Kutelle. Na iyene nani, anite vat ruu Kutelle.
And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God. All the people, when they saw it, praised God.
