Luka 20
1 I wa diku nlon liri, na YEsu wadin dursuzu na nite nanya kutii nlira nin belu nani utiru Kutelle, adidya kutii nlire nang nanan niyerte daa kiti me nan na kukune ntardu nacara alau.
On one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the Good News, the priests and scribes came to him with the elders.
2 I benle ulire, I woroghe, “Benle nari nin liyapin licarari udin su ka katwa we? Sa ghari ule na anafi lo likare?”
They asked him, “Tell us: by what authority do you do these things? Or who is giving you this authority?”
3 A kpana a woro nani, “Meng wang ba tirin minu imemong.
He answered them, “I also will ask you one question. Tell me:
4 Belenni ubelen inshintun Yohana, Uwa nuzu kiti Kutelle aria. Sa kiti na nit?”
the baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men?”
5 I kpilza nati mene, I benle, “Ti wa woro, 'kitene kani,' a ba benlu, 'too iyarin taa na iyina yina nin ghe ba?'
They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why didn’t you believe him?’
6 Tutung ti ma belin 'unuzu na nitari,' anite vat ma fil su nari nin natala bara na iyire Yohana wadi unam liru nin nuu Kutelleari.”
But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.”
7 I kawa au na iyiru kite na a nuzuku ba.
They answered that they didn’t know where it was from.
8 Yesu woro nani, “Na meng ma belin minu nin liyapin likarari in din su ale adodwe.
Jesus said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
9 A taa anite ntun tiwankare, “Umung wa bilisu kunem, anaa among ukewe, anya udu nkankipin a di dandaun ku.
He began to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard and rented it out to some farmers, and went into another country for a long time.
10 Na kubi da atoo kucin me udu kitin nanan kye kunene, au inighe kumat kuce, bara nani anan kye kunene fooghe, inin kooghe nin na cara akone.
At the proper season, he sent a servant to the farmers to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the farmers beat him and sent him away empty.
11 A kuru a too nkun kucin me ikuru I fooghe, I naghe incin, inin kooghe nin na cara akone.
He sent yet another servant, and they also beat him and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
12 A kuru a too unan tat ikuru I lanzaghe ukul, inin fillinghe indas.
He sent yet a third, and they also wounded him and threw him out.
13 Bara nani Cikilari kunene woro, 'I yanghari mba ti? Na ntoo gononsunighe. Mbuti ima yenu ngongonme.'
The lord of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that seeing him, they will respect him.’
14 Bara nani naiyeneghe ncinu, I munu ati I woro, 'Ulelere unan nlin gadu kunen kune, dan ti molughe, ugadwe nan soo unbit.'
“But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.’
15 I fillinghe mamal kunene, inin mologhe. Iyari unan kunene ma tii nani?
Then they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
16 Ama dak ada mulsu nani, anin ni amon kunene.” Na I lanza, I woro, “Kutelle sauke.”
He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.” When they heard that, they said, “May that never be!”
17 Bara nani Yesu yene nani, anin woro, “Iyari ile I yerte din belu? 'Litala loo na anan kye kilare nari, linnere nda so lin tune kilare'?
But he looked at them and said, “Then what is this that is written, ‘The stone which the builders rejected was made the chief cornerstone’?
18 Vat nle na a deu kitene litala lile ama putuzu agerager. Bara nani bat ne na litale ndeu liti me lima yarughe.”
Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, but it will crush whomever it falls on to dust.”
19 Bara nani anan niyerte nin na didya kutii nlire wa piziru I kifoghe nanya kuni kube, bara na I yino a wasu too tiwankare nati menere. Bara nani I wa lanza feu nanite.
The chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him that very hour, but they feared the people—for they knew he had spoken this parable against them.
20 I yenjeghe mseen, I too anan gbizinu kipin ita nafo anit alau, inan se ufanu nliru me, bara inan kifoghe inakpa anan natet tigoo ngumna.
They watched him and sent out spies, who pretended to be righteous, that they might trap him in something he said, so as to deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor.
21 I tirighe, I benle, “Unan dursusu, ti yiru udin dursuzu ubele dert, na umon din rusuzu fiba, bara nani udin dursuzu kedegene udu libau Kutelle.
They asked him, “Teacher, we know that you say and teach what is right, and aren’t partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God.
22 Udukari kiti bite ti ni Kaisar ku uganu bite sa babu?”
Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
23 Bara nani Yesu yinno kujinjin mene, a woro nani,
But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them, “Why do you test me?
24 “Dursuni fikubu, kuyeli nghari, nin lisa du kitene fin nin?” I woro “Un Kaisar.”
Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?” They answered, “Caesar’s.”
25 A woro nani, “Naan Kaisar ku imun ile na idi un Kaisar, nin Kutelle imun ile na idi in Kutelle.”
He said to them, “Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”
26 Anan miyerte nan nadidya kutii nlire na iwa yinin unari ni mon ile na awa belen nbun nanite ba. I lanza umamaki nkawu me na ibenle uliru ba.
They weren’t able to trap him in his words before the people. They marveled at his answer and were silent.
27 Na amon Asandukiyawa nda kiti me, ale na I wa woro na ufitun yii duku ba,
Some of the Sadducees came to him, those who deny that there is a resurrection.
28 I tiringhe, I benle, “Ku mallami, Musa wa yertin nari a woro, gwana nmung wa kuu nin ulani, na I mara ba, unite yira uwanin gwana me, a maraghe gono ku.
They asked him, “Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man’s brother dies having a wife, and he is childless, his brother should take the wife and raise up children for his brother.
29 Nwana wa duku imun kuzur, unan burne yira urani, a kuu na imaraba,
There were therefore seven brothers. The first took a wife, and died childless.
30 unan mba me wang nanere.
The second took her as wife, and he died childless.
31 Unan tate udu unan zurre nanere na imara ba,
The third took her, and likewise the seven all left no children, and died.
32 na ikala ayeri uwane kuu wang.
Afterward the woman also died.
33 Lirin fitun yii ama yitu uwani ngha nany mene? Bara na ma suzu ilugma min wane?”
Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them will she be? For the seven had her as a wife.”
Jesus said to them, “The children of this age marry and are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
35 Bara nani ale na idumna nani ise iduru useru nanan fitu unuzum kul inin piru ulai sa ligang na idin suzu ilugma sa i nakpa uwani ba. (aiōn g165)
But those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
36 Na I ba kuru I kuu tutung ba, bara na isoo nafo nono kadura Kutelle, inun nso nono Kutelle.
For they can’t die any more, for they are like the angels and are children of God, being children of the resurrection.
37 Bara nani iba feu abe, Musa wang I wa durughe, mbeleng kitene na a wadi kusho kikaa na awa yicila Ucef Kutellen Ibrahim, Kutellen Ishaku, nin Kutellen Yakub.
But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the bush, when he called the Lord ‘The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’
38 Nene na ame Kutelle nanan nkulari ba ama kun nanan nlaiyari, bara na vat di nin nlai udu kiti me.”
Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for all are alive to him.”
39 Among anan niyerte kpana iworo “Ku mallami ukpana caut.”
Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, you speak well.”
40 Bara nani ikuru I tiringhe imemon turtung ba.
They didn’t dare to ask him any more questions.
41 Yesu woro nani, “I yizieri I din belu au Kristi gono Daudari?
He said to them, “Why do they say that the Christ is David’s son?
42 Bara na Dauda litime wa belen nanya niyert in Zabura, Ucife wa woro Ucif nighe, 'Soo incara ulime ning,
David himself says in the book of Psalms, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand,
43 sai dai nta anan narife kitin cisu na bunu fe.'
until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet.”’
44 Nanere Dauda yicila Kristiku 'Ucif' a suu usaun Dauda nene?”
“David therefore calls him Lord, so how is he his son?”
45 Natuf nanit vat a woro nono kadura me,
In the hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples,
46 “Sun insen nin nanang niyert, ale na idinin su I cinu nanya nalutuk ajajangaran, nin su nilip icine nanya tikasau, nin niti lisosin nididya nanya natii nlira, nin niti nididya niti tibuki.
“Beware of those scribes who like to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the marketplaces, the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts;
47 Ikuru idin nanzu ninari nawani ale na ales mene nakuzu, nin nlira mijakaka kirusuzo. Alele maseru ukul udindya.”
who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”
