Luka 4
1 Nani Yesu, na iwa kullo ghe nin Uruhu Ulau, akpilla unuzu kurawan Yahudiya, Uruhu nya ninghe udu nanya kusho
On returning from the Jordan, full of the Holy Spirit, Jesus was led by the power of the Spirit through the wilderness for forty days, tempted by the devil.
2 nanya nayiri akut anas shetan. Wa di dumunghe kikane, nanya na leli ayire, na awa lii imon ba, udu nimalin nkoni kubi alanza kukpon.
All that time he ate nothing; and, when it was over, he became hungry.
3 Shetan ghe woroghe, “Andi fe gono Kutelle ari taah atala ale aso uborodi.”
So the devil said to him, ‘If you are God’s Son, tell this stone to become a loaf of bread.’
4 Yesu kauwa ghe ina nyertin, “Na unit ba so ninlai bara uborodi cas ba.”
And Jesus answered him, ‘Scripture says – “It is not on bread alone that a person is to live.”’
5 Nin nani shetan dofino nunghe udu kiti kizalan, adi durso ghe vat kipin tigo nanya inye na nin kubi ba.
And the devil led Jesus up, and showing him in a single moment all the kingdoms of the earth, said to him,
6 Shetan ghe woro ghe, “Meng ba nifi likara asu tigo nanya kipin tigone nin ngongon vat, meng wan su nsu nani bara ina nii nsu tigowe kitene, tutun nwansa nnah ko ghaku ulenge na ndinin nsuwe.
‘I will give you all this power, and the splendour of them; for it has been given into my hands and I give it to whom I wish.
7 Bara nani asa uba tumunu nbun nighe unii ngongon, vat nilele ba so infe.”
If you worship me, it will all be yours.’
8 Bara nani Yesu kauwa a wono ghe, “Udi nanya ninyerte uba tumuzunu Cikilari Kutelle fe amere cas uba nighe ngongon.”
And Jesus answered him, ‘Scripture says – “You should worship the Lord your God, and worship him only.”’
9 Udu nbune shetan dofino nin Yesu udu Urushelima adi cio ghe kiiti kizalang kuttyi nliran a woro ghe, “Andi fe gono Kutelle ari nyinna kikane.
The devil next led him into Jerusalem, and, placing him on the parapet of the Temple, said, ‘If you are God’s Son throw yourself down from here,
10 Bara inyerte na bellin abati nono kadura mye iminfi, ikese fi.
for scripture says – “He will give his angels commands about you, to guard you safely,”
11 Inung ba ghantinfi nin nacara mine, bara uwa tiro kitene litala.”
And “On their hands they will lift you up, otherwise you might strike your foot against a stone.”’
12 Yesu kauwa a woroghe. “Ina bellin na uwa dumun Cikilari Kutelle fe ba.
But Jesus answered him, ‘It is said – “You must not tempt the Lord your God.”’
13 Kubi na shetan nmala udumuzunu Yesu ku, a nya a sunghe udu nkon kubi.
When he had tried every kind of temptation, the devil left Jesus, until another opportunity.
14 Nani Yesu kpilla udu Ugalili nin likara Uruhu, uliru kitene mye malla kiti vat nkilinu ligan nmyino.
Moved by the power of the Spirit, Jesus returned to Galilee. Reports about him spread through all that region;
15 A dursuzo nani nanya kutyi nliran ko gha wa sughe liru.
and he began to teach in their synagogues, and was honoured by everyone.
16 Nlon liri adah Unazaret, kagbir kanga na ana kunjoku, nafo ile imon na amene nsuzuwe, a pira kutyi nliran liri nasabar, a fita ayisa a karanta inyerte.
Coming to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, Jesus, as was his custom, went on the Sabbath into the synagogue, and stood up to read the scriptures.
17 Kufah nnan nliru nin nuu Kutelle Ishaya ri iwa nighe a puno kufe, asa kiti kaa na inyerte ule duku,
He was given the book of the prophet Isaiah; and Jesus opened the book and found the place where it says –
18 “Uruhu Kutelle di nin mye, Bara unashipai nbellu uliru ucine kiti nakimon. Ana tuuyi nbellin ibunku alenge na idi licin, nin npunu niyisi nale na idi aduu,
“The Spirit of the Lord is on me, for he has consecrated me to bring good news to the poor, he has sent me to proclaim release to captives and restoration of sight to the blind, to set the oppressed at liberty,
19 Nin nbellu likus nse nyinnu Ncikilari.”
to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favour.”
20 Na atursu kuffe, akpilla mun ana unan kutuwa kutyi nlirane, atina aso, iyizi na nite vat nanya kutyi nliran kpilla kitimye.
Then, closing the book and returning it to the attendant, he sat down. The eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him,
21 A cizina uliru nanghinu, “Kitimone nkullo nanya nlanzu mine.”
and Jesus began, ‘This very day this passage has been fulfilled in your hearing.’
22 Ko gha wanso iyizi inba nanya nimon vat na awa bellin nanuu itunna ikiffo tinu, bara tigbulang timang na ti di nnucu nnu mye. I wa din du “Kaane gonon Yusufu ari, sa na nani ba?”
All who were present spoke well of him, and were astonished at the beautiful words that fell from his lips. ‘Isn’t Joseph’s son?’ they asked.
23 Yesu woro nani, “Kiden nari iba belle to tinan kugoldo, kabere shinno nin litife, vat nile imon na tina lanza au una su Ukafarnahum su inin kikane kagbirfe.”
‘Doubtless,’ said Jesus, ‘you will remind me of the saying – “Doctor, cure yourself;” and you will say “Do here in your own country all that we have heard that has been done at Capernaum.”
24 Ame tutun woro, “Kidegenari ndi nbellu munu, na iwasa iyina nin nan nliru nin nnu Kutelle kipin mye ba.
I tell you,’ he continued, ‘that no prophet is acceptable in his own country.
25 Kidegen meng di nbellu munu, awani alenge na ales mine wa kuzu wa diku gbardang kubon Iiya, kubi na kitene kani wa tursu, sa uwuru udu akus atat nin tipwui kutocin kubi na kukpon wandi vat kipine.
There were, doubtless, many widows in Israel in Elijah’s days, when the heavens were closed for three years and six months, and a severe famine prevailed throughout the country;
26 Bara nani na iwa tuu Iliya ku kiti nmong nanya mine ba, bara cas udu kiti nmong uwani na ules mye na kuu, kupo kipin Sidon.
and yet it was not to one of them that Elijah was sent, but to a widow at Zarephath in Sidonia.
27 Tutun akuturu wa duku gbardang kubin Alisha unan nliru nin nuu Kutelle, bara nani na iwa shinn nin nmong ba se Naaman kunan Suriya.”
And there were many lepers in Israel in the time of the prophet Elisha, yet it was not one of them who was made clean, but Naaman the Syrian.’
28 Vat nanite nanya kutyi nliran lanza ileli imone ayi mine nana.
All the people in the synagogue, as they listened to this, became enraged.
29 Inung fita inutunghe nanya kagbire nin likara, inya ninghe udu kitene likup longo na iwa ke kagbir mine ku, bara itununghe udak kutyin.
Starting up, they drove Jesus out of the town, and led him to the brow of the hill on which their town stood, intending to hurl him down.
30 Ame tunna anya dert kiyitik mine libau mye.
But he passed through the middle of the crowd and went on his way.
31 A tolo udu Ukafarnahum kagbir nanya ngalili, namon asabar awandi ndursuzu nanit nanya kutyin nliran.
Then Jesus went down to Capernaum, a city in Galilee. On the Sabbath he taught the people.
32 Inung wa kiffo tinu nin ndursuzu mye, bara awa liru nin likarra.
They were amazed at his teaching, because his words were spoken with authority.
33 Nene nanya kutyin nliran umong wa duku ulenge na awa dinin Nruhu nagbergenu, asu kuculu komg,
In the synagogue there was a man with the spirit of a foul demon in him, who called out loudly,
34 Iyaghari arike basu ninfi Yesu kunan Nazarat? Udah kikane uda molu nari? Meng yiru sa fe ghari, fere Ulau un Kutelle!”
‘Stop! What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are – the Holy One of God!’
35 Yesu kpada agbergenu a woro, “Taan tik inuzu nanya mine!” Kubi na agbergenu liinghe kutyen kiyitik mine, anuzu nanya mye sa uworu ataghe ukul.
But Jesus rebuked the demon. ‘Be silent! Come out from him,’ he said. The demon flung the man down in the middle of the people, and then came out from him, without causing him further harm.
36 Vat nanite kiffo tinu, itunna nliru nanya nati mine, i woro, “Imusin ntime tigbulan ghari tine? A kpada agbergenu ananzang nin likara inanai inuzu wa?”
And they were all lost in amazement, and kept saying to one another, ‘What words are these? For he gives his commands to the foul spirits with a marvellous authority, and they come out.’
37 Uliru we kitene mye tunna umala kiti nanyan nkilinu kipine.
And rumours about Jesus traveled through every place in the region.
38 Na Yesu nsuna kutyin nlira, apira kilari Simon, nene unan nwani simo ne awadi nniu nin nkonu, inung foghe acara nmemuku mye.
On leaving the synagogue, Jesus went into Simon’s house. Now Simon’s mother-in-law was suffering from a severe attack of fever, and they asked Jesus to cure her.
39 Bara nani a fita ayisina kitime akpada ukone, atinna ashino, deddei atina a fita acizina asu nani katuwa.
Bending over her, he rebuked the fever; the fever left her, and she immediately got up and began to take care of them.
40 Kubi ndiu nwui, anite da nin na nan tikonu gbardang kitin Yesu, Ame tarda nani acara itino itinna ishino.
At sunset, all who had friends suffering from various diseases took them to Jesus; and he placed his hands on everyone of them and cured them.
41 Agbergenu nuzu kiti nani gbardang, nin kuculu i woro, “Fe gono Kutelle Yesu kpada agbergenu a wantina nani uliru. Bara iwa yinin au ame Kristi ari.
And even demons came out from many people, screaming “You are the Son of God.” Jesus rebuked them, and would not allow them to speak, because they knew that he was the Christ.
42 Nin nshantu kiti ada, anya udu kiti kah na unit duku ba, ligozi nanit wadi npiziru ghe ida kiti kah na aduku, isu inda na iba wantinghe asun nani.
At daybreak, Jesus went out and walked to a lonely spot. But crowds of people began to look for him; and they came to where he was and tried to detain him and prevent his leaving them.
43 Baara nani, aworo nani, “Usoyi gbasari tutun nbellin ulinu ucine kitene kipin tigo Kutelle nanya nigbir gbardang, bara nanere iwa tuuyi kikane.”
Jesus, however, said to them, ‘I must take the good news of the kingdom of God to the other towns too, for that was why I was sent.’
44 Nin nani atina aleo ubun nbellu nliru nlai nanya natyi nlira, nin vatt ligan Yahudiya.
And he continued to make his proclamation in the synagogues of Judea.
