Luka 7
1 Kubi na Yesu nmala ubellu nimon natuf nanite, a pira Ukafarnahum.
When Jesus had finished saying all this in the hearing of the people, he entered Capernaum.
2 Kucin nmong unit udia, na awadi nin nkanu acina ukuu, Cikilari wa di nin su mye.
There a centurion's servant, who was highly regarded by him, was sick and about to die.
3 Bara na alanza ubellen Yesu, unit udia une to akukune na Yahudawa idi yicila ghe adak ada tucu kucin kone bara awa kuu.
The centurion heard about Jesus and sent some Jewish elders to him, asking him to come and heal his servant.
4 Kubi na ida kupoo Yesu inung tiringhe iworo, “Ucaun isughe nani,
When they came to Jesus, they earnestly pleaded with him, saying, “This man is worthy to have yoʋ do this for him,
5 Bara adinin su nanit bite, amere na ke nari kutyin nliran kone.”
for he loves our nation and built our synagogue for us.”
6 Bara nani Yesu leo ubun nanghinu kubi na awadii piit nin kilare unit udia une to adondon mye iworoghe, “Cikilara na uwa ti litife kudira ba, na meng batin uda piru nanya kilari nig ba.
So Jesus went with them. When he was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to say to him, “Lord, do not trouble yoʋrself, for I am not worthy to have yoʋ enter under my roof;
7 Bara nanere na nyene liti nighe nbatin ndak kitife ba, belle ligbulang kucin nighe ba shinu.
therefore I did not even consider myself worthy to come to yoʋ. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed.
8 Bara meng wang unitari na idinin tigo, ndinin nasojja, asa nworo ulle, 'Cang,' asa anya andi nworo umong, 'Da,' asa ada, ame kucin nighe su nenge asa asu.”
For I too am a man set under authority, with soldiers under me. I say to this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come,’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
9 Kubi na Yesu nlanza nani akiffo unu, a gitirino kiti ligozi na idin dortu ghe, “Meng bellin munu, vat nanyan Israila na nse umon nin nimusin nle uyinu sa uyenu ba.”
When Jesus heard this, he was amazed at the centurion. And turning to the crowd that was following him, he said, “I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith.”
10 Inung alenge na to nani, kpilla udu kilari idi se kucine nshino.
Then the men the centurion had sent returned to the house and found that the servant who had been sick was well.
11 Nin nkon kubi, uso na Yesu wadi ncinu udu kipin na idin yicu unayin, adon katwa mye wadin ncinu nanghe, ligowe nin ligozi nanit gbardang.
Soon afterward Jesus went to a town called Nain, and many of his disciples went with him, along with a large crowd.
12 Na ada kupo kipine kidia we, iwa min umong unit na akuu, amere gone cas kitin nene, ame wand ules mye na kuu, ligozi gbardang nanya kipine wa di nanghe.
As he drew near to the gate of the town, behold, a man who had died was being carried out, the one and only son of his mother (who was a widow). And a large crowd from the town was with her.
13 Na ayeneghe, Cikilari lanza nkunekune mye kang, “Na uwa sillu ba.”
When the Lord saw her, he was moved with compassion for her and said to her, “Do not weep.”
14 A da ubun mine adudo akwatu libe, itunna iyisina a woro, “Kwanya, nbellin fe, fita.”
Then he came up and touched the bier, and those who were carrying it stood still. He said, “Young man, I say to yoʋ, arise!”
15 Atina a fita a so acizina uliru, Yesu yiraghe ana unene.
So the dead man sat up and began to speak, and Jesus gave him back to his mother.
16 Feu tina fi da nani vat. Itina nzazinu Kutelle iworo, “Unan nliru nin nnu Kutelle udia nnuzu nanya bite” nin “Kutelle din yenju anit mye.”
Then all the people were filled with awe and began glorifying God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us,” and, “God has visited his people.”
17 Uleli uliru kitene Yesu malla kiti nanya vat Yahudiya nin nigbir kupowe.
This news about Jesus then spread throughout Judea and all the surrounding region.
18 Adon katuwa Yohanna bellinghe vat nile imone.
John's disciples told him about all these things.
19 Yohanna yicila adon katuwa mye an waba, a ti nani udu kiti Cikilari i woro, “Fere unan dak ule, sa umon ghari ule na tiba so nca mye?”
So John called two of his disciples and sent them to ask Jesus, “Are yoʋ the one who is to come, or should we wait for another?”
20 Kubi na ida kupon Yesu, anite woro, “Yohanna unan shintizinu nanit nmyen nto nari kilifi ti woro fi, 'Fere unan Dak Ule, sa umon duku na tibo soon nca mye?'”
When the men came to him, they said, “John the Baptist has sent us to yoʋ to ask, ‘Are yoʋ the one who is to come, or should we wait for another?’”
21 Nkoni kube anit gbardang wa shinn nin tikonu mine nin nniu na nan nruhu unanzang, ata anit gbardang aduu yenje kiti.
Now in that very hour Jesus had healed many people of diseases, afflictions, and evil spirits, and had given sight to many who were blind.
22 Yesu kauwa a woro nani, “Asa ikpilla, bellen Yohanna ku ile imon na iyene inani lanza. Anit aduu di nyenju kiti, a gurgu din cinu, akuturu din nshizhinu, aturi din lanzu, idin fizu anan kul udu ulai, akimon din lanzu uliru nlai.
So Jesus replied to John's disciples, “Go tell John what you have seen and heard: The blind receive their sight, the lame walk, lepers are made clean, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the poor have good news preached to them.
23 Unit ulenge na asuna uyinnu nin bara imon ile na ndi su ba, ame unan nmariari.”
And blessed is anyone who does not take offense at me.”
24 Kubi na anan kaduran Yohanna nkpilla, Yesu cizina ubellu ligoze nanite kitene Yohanna, “Iyaghari iwa do nanya kusho ndi yene amon ale na ufunu din pilluwa?
When John's messengers had gone away, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
25 Bara nani iyaghari iwa nuzu ndi yene, unit unan kuyok kucine? Yene anit alenge na idinsu kuyok kucine inani sosin nanya nlanzun mang, idi kilari tigo wari.
What then did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft garments? Behold, those who are dressed in splendid clothing and who live in luxury are in royal palaces.
26 Bara nani Iyaghari i wa nuzu udas idi yene, una nliru nin nnu Kutelle? Nanere, mong bellin munu, ame katin unan nliru nin nnu Kutelle.
But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.
27 Amore ulenge na ina nyertin litime, 'Yene meng nto unan kadura nighe nbun fe, ulenge na aba kelu libau kamin fe.'
This is the one of whom it is written, ‘Behold, I am sending my messenger ahead of yoʋ, who will prepare yoʋr way before yoʋ.’
28 Meng nbellin munu nanya nale na awani na macu nani, na umon katin Yohanna ku ba, nin nani tigo Kutelle akatinghe.”
For I tell you, among those born of women there is no prophet greater than John the Baptist, but whoever is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.”
29 Kubi na vat nanite nlanza nani, umunu anan sesun ngandu, itambata Kutelle unit ulau wari, iwadi nanya nalenge na iwae ushintinu Yohanna.
(When all the people heard this, including the tax collectors, they acknowledged the justice of God, because they had been baptized with the baptism of John.
30 Bara nani, Afarisiyawa nin na nan nyiru nanyan nduka na Yahudawa, alenge na awa shintin nani, iwa nari njinjin Kutelle bara atimine.
But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the will of God for themselves, because they had not been baptized by John.)
31 Nin nyanghari mba gwadu anit nko kuje muna? Idi nafo iyaghari?
“To what then should I compare the people of this generation, and what are they like?
32 Idi nafo nono na idi navu nanya nkassa, alenge na isa iso iyica atimine iwroro, 'Tidin npee nishirau bara anughe, na anug nsu ikarma ba, tisu tiyom ana anung nsu kuculu ba.'
They are like children who sit in the marketplace and call out to one another, ‘We played the flute for you, but you did not dance; we sang a lament for you, but you did not weep.’
33 Bara na Yohanna wa dak na asu kilecu sa usonu ba, anung woro, 'Ame kugbergenu ri.'
For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon.’
34 Gono nnit daa adin nlii, aso anug woro, 'Yene, ame unan kileou nin nso udondon na nan sesun ngandu nin nanan kulapi!'
The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Behold, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’
35 Bara nani njinjin nsu utucu nvat nnono mye.”
Yet wisdom is justified by all her children.”
36 Nene nkon ku Farisiyawa waddi likura au Yesu lii imonli ninghe. Bara kubi na Yesu npira kilari ku Yahudawe, ikilino kutebul isu kileou.
One of the Pharisees asked Jesus to eat with him, so he went into the Pharisee's house and reclined at the table.
37 Nani umon uwani wa duku nanya kagbire unan kulapi, ayinno nworu Yesu din nli nimon li kilari Kufarisiyawa, ada nin nmon nnut albasta.
And behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she found out that Jesus was reclining at the table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster jar of ointment.
38 A da yisina nbun mye, kupo na bunu mye a gilla. Imizine tantizo nabune, atina nweze nin titi liti mye, ngbindirizinu nabunu, nlolizu nanin nin nufe.
As she stood behind him at his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears. Then she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
39 Kube na Afarisiyawe alenge na iyicila Yesu ku, Iyene nani a kpiliza nanya kibinai mye aworo, “Ndah unit ule unan nliru nin nnu Kutelleri, awa yinnu imusi nwani ule na adin duduzughe ame unan kulapiari.”
When the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet, he would know who is touching him and what kind of woman she is—that she is a sinner.”
40 Yesu kauwa a woroghe, “Simon, ndinin nimon ile na mba bellinfi.” A woro, “Belle unan yiru!”
Jesus said to him in response, “Simon, I have something to say to yoʋ.” So he said, “Say it, Teacher.”
41 Yesu woroghe, “Amon wa duku an waba iwa seru ure kiti nnan nizu nre, warum wa sere tidinari akat ataun, ulele tidinari akut ataun.
“A certain moneylender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other owed fifty.
42 Na iwa dinin nikurfin nbiuwe ba, a woro nani na iwa biya ba. Bara uyemeari nanya mine ba katinu nin su mye?”
When they did not have the means to repay, he forgave the debts of them both. So tell me, which of them will love him more?”
43 Simon kauwa ghe aworo, “Ndi yenju ulenge na adin dortu ghe ikurfun idia.” Yesu woroghe, “Fe uwusu kidegen dert.”
Simon answered, “I suppose that it would be the one for whom he forgave the larger debt.” Jesus said to him, “Yoʋ have judged correctly.”
44 Yesu gitirno kiti nwane a woro Simon ku, “uyene uwani ule npira kilari fe, na unayi nmyen nkusu nabunu, ame nin nmizin a kikkai abunu, amini nwese nin titi mye.
Then he turned toward the woman and said to Simon, “Do yoʋ see this woman? When I came into yoʋr house, yoʋ did not give me water for my feet, but this woman has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head.
45 Na fe ngbindiri ba, amere, unuzu kube na ndah nanye, na asuna ugbindiri zinu nabunu nigbe ba.
Yoʋ did not give me a kiss, but from the time I came in, this woman has not stopped kissing my feet.
46 Na uwolo abunu nighe nin nuf ba ame nwolo abunu nighe nin nnuf.
Yoʋ did not anoint my head with oil, but this woman has anointed my feet with ointment.
47 Bara ile imon na asu, nworo fi ame ulenge na adinin nalapi inani nyapa ghe, ata usu gbardang, bara ulenge na iyapa ghe cinglin, ame nta usu cingling.”
Therefore I tell yoʋ, her many sins are forgiven; that is why she has shown great love. But he to whom little is forgiven shows little love.”
48 Atuna aworoghe, “Iyapa alapi fe.”
Then Jesus said to her, “Yoʋr sins are forgiven.”
49 Alenge na idi kileowe ligowe woro nati mine, “Ghari ule na awasa ayapa kulapi?”
But those who were reclining at the table with him began to say among themselves, “Who is this man that even forgives sins?”
50 Nani Yesu woro nwani une, “Uyinnu fe sa uyene nsu utucufe caan sheuwu.”
And Jesus said to the woman, “Yoʋr faith has saved yoʋ; go in peace.”
