Luka 9
1 Ayicila nono katwa mye likure nin wabe, ana nani likara kitene nagbergenu nin shizhinu nin tikonu.
Then He called the Twelve together and gave them power and authority over all the demons, and to cure diseases;
2 Ato nani, idi bellin uliru kiti kipin tigo mye, nin shizinu nanan tikonu.
and He sent them to proclaim the Kingdom of God and to heal the sick.
3 A woro nani na iwa yiru imon bara ucine ba, sa uca, imon inyi, imonlii, ukurfung, sa alutuk abba.
And He said to them: “Take nothing for the journey—neither staffs nor knapsack nor bread nor money, neither have two tunics apiece.
4 Vat kilari ka na ipira soo kinin, udu liyiri lo na iba cinu kipine.
Whatever house you enter, stay there, and depart from there.
5 Inung alle na inari munu, asa iba nuzu nanya kipin, kotinon lidau we nabune mine, liba so ushaida nati mine.”
But as many as do not receive you, when you depart from that town, shake off even the dust from your feet as a testimony against them.”
6 Itunna iwatuna, ipira nigbire itina nbellin nliru umang, nin shizinu nanit niti niti.
So they set out and went around, village by village, evangelizing and healing everywhere.
7 Hirdus ugo na alanza ile imon na idinsu, au Yohanna unan shintu nanit infita.
Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all the things being done by Him; and he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John had risen from the dead,
8 Kiti namong idin su Iliya nsah, among woro umon unan nburnari, in fita nanya na nan nlai.
and by some that Elijah had appeared, and by others that one of the ancient prophets had arisen.
9 Hiridus woro, “Ina malu ukalu liti Yohanna, ani ghari ndi nlanzu kiti mee nene.” Hiridus do npiziru ayene Yesu ku.
But Herod said, “John I beheaded; so who is this about whom I hear such things?” And he started trying to see Him.
10 Alenge na iwa tuu nani issah, ibellinghe vat nile imon na isu, anya nanghinu ligowe nanghe, udu kipin Batsaida.
When the Apostles returned they reported to Him all that they had done. Then He took them and withdrew privately to a deserted place belonging to a town called Bethsaida.
11 Inung ligoze lanza nani Idofinghe, atah nani mahadi, abelle nani ubellen kipin tigo na idinin su inshinue.
But the crowds, being aware, followed Him. So He received them and started speaking to them about the Kingdom of God, and He cured those who needed healing.
12 Nin ndu kulelen, inung likure nin wabe, woroghee suuna ligoze idoo nigbir nkilinue, idi piziru kiti linanin nin nimonli, bara kikane na tidi ku kushori.
Now when the day began to decline, the Twelve approached and said to Him, “Dismiss the crowd, so that they may go to the surrounding villages and their farms, lodge and find food; because we are in a deserted place here.”
13 Aworo nani, “Nan nani imonli ili.” Inug woro, “na tidi nin nimomon na ikatin nfungul utaun nin niboo ibba ba, sse tido tidi seru nani imonli bara ligozi vat.
But He said to them, “You feed them!” So they said, “We have no more than five loaves and two fish—unless we go and buy food for all this crowd”
14 Iwadi annit amui alaun. A woro nono kadura mye, “Taan nani iso acuri akut ataun taun.
(there were about five thousand men). But He said to His disciples, “Make them recline in groups of fifty!”
15 Isu nani anite so vat kutyin.
They did so, making them all recline.
16 A yauna ufungul utaune nin niboo ibe, ato iyiizi kitene atah nmari ku, a pucu agir anaa nono katuwa mye, inin koso nani.
Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven He blessed and broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the multitude.
17 Inung vat leo ishito, kagisin nbubun nimole nazza, ipitirno ita nakuzun likure nin nabba.
So they all ate and were filled, and twelve baskets of the pieces they left were taken up.
18 Idoo nkon kubi adin nti nliran usame, nono katuwa mye nanghe anin tirino nani, “Ligozi din su meng ghari?”
Now it happened, as He was alone praying, that the disciples joined Him, and He questioned them, saying, “Who do the crowds say I am?”
19 Ikauwa ghe iworo, “Yohanna unan shintu nmyen (Baptisma) amon woro Iliya, amon woro nkon kunan nburnuari in fita.”
In answer they said, “John the Baptizer, but others say ‘Elijah,’ while others that one of the ancient prophets has arisen.”
20 Anin woro nani, “Anung dinsu meng ghari?” Bitrus kauwa aworo kristi unuzu Kutelle.”
Then He said to them, “But you, who do you say that I am?” In answer Peter said, “The Christ of God!”
21 A wunno nani atuf, Yesu woro nani na iwa bellin umon ba.
But He strictly warned and commanded them to tell this to no one,
22 Nworu gono nnit ba niu nin nimon gbardang, iba nari ghe, akune nin uso napirist a anan ninyerte, iba mollughe ayiri atat a ba fitu nin lai.
saying, “The Son of the Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.”
23 A woro nani vat, “Asa ule na adinin nsu adak kiti nigh, aba nari liti mye, aba diru, ule na anari litime bara meng aba se utucu.
Then He said to everyone: “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross, and follow me.
24 Ulenge na idinin su a tucu liti mye, aba diru, ule na anari litime bara meng aba se utucu.
Because whoever desires to ‘save’ his life will waste it, but whoever ‘wastes’ his life for my sake, he will save it.
25 Iyaghari ncaute unit se imon inye vat, anin dira ulai mye?
Further, what is a man profited if he gains the whole world, yet wastes or forfeits his very self?
26 Vat nle na adi nlanzu ncin nigh nin ligbulang nigh, gono nnit ba lanzu ncin mye nwui une na aba dak nanya ngongon Ncif mye nin nono kadura Kutelle.
Yes, whoever is ashamed of me and of my words, the Son of the Man will be ashamed of Him, whenever He comes in the glory—His, and the Father's, and of the holy angels.
27 Nworo munu kidegenere indi bellu munu, among yisin kikane, na ukul ba dudu nani ba, se idoo kipin tigo Kutelle.”
However, I tell you truly: there are some standing here who will certainly not taste death until they see the Kingdom of God!”
28 Na ayiri kulir nkata na Yesu nbelle nani tigbulang tone, ayira Bitrus, Yohanna, a Yakubu, ighana kitene kupara ati nlirag.
Now about eight days after these words, it happened that He took along Peter and John and James and went up on the mountain to pray.
29 Na adi nliraghe, umuro mye saka, imon mye tunna ipo pau nwaltu.
And as He prayed, the appearance of His face became different, and His clothing dazzling white.
30 Itunna ise amon naba ida idin nliru nanghe, ashe Musa nin Iliya.
And then, two men started talking with Him, who were Moses and Elijah;
31 Ale na iwa yenje nani gongon, idin nliru kitene nnyiu mye, ule na iba kullu nanya Urushelima.
they appeared in glory and were explaining His ‘departure’, that He was about to bring to fruition in Jerusalem.
32 Kubi, Bitrus nan nale na iwa di nanghe nmoro wadi nani kang, na izinto, iyene ngongon mye nin nale iwa yisin nanghe.
Now Peter and those with him were heavy with sleep; but becoming fully awake, they saw His glory, and the two men who stood with Him.
33 Uso nani, na inya ligowe nan Yesu, Bitrus woroghe, “Cikilari ucaun na tidi kikane, tiba ke adanga atat, ti ke kurum kun Iliya.” Na ayinno ile imon na adin belle ba.
Then it happened: as they were parting from Him, Peter said to Jesus: “Master, it is good for us to be here” and “Should we make three shelters: one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah?”—not knowing what he was saying.
34 Kube na adin belle nleli imone, kuwut tolo ku tursu nani, fiu da nani, na kuwute nkilino nani.
But as he was saying this a cloud came and overshadowed them; and they became afraid as they entered the cloud.
35 Liwui nuzu nanya kuwute liworo, “Gono nighari kane na ina fere lanzan ghe.”
And a Voice came out of the cloud, saying: “This is my beloved Son. Listen to Him!”
36 Na imala ulanzu liwuiye, Yesu yita usame, inung so tik, nanya nayiri ane na iwa bellin umong ba, ile imon na iyene.
When the Voice had ceased, Jesus was found alone. (They kept quiet and told no one in those days any of the things they had seen.)
37 Ukurtunu nkuiye, na isa unuzu kupara, ligozi nanit da zuro nanghe.
Now it happened on the next day, when they came down from the mountain, that a large crowd met Him.
38 Umon nanya ligozi gilla a woro, “Unan yiru ndin fofi nacara yene usaun nighe, amere gono nighe cas.
And then, a man from the crowd called out, saying: “Teacher, I beg you, look upon my son, for he is my only begotten.
39 Yene Uruhu sa uyaunghe, amalzino, aketize, anutuzuno kupunget nnuwe, na asa usunghe ba, se ushalaghe.
And oh, a spirit seizes him and he suddenly screams, and it convulses him with foaming, and it hardly departs from him, destroying him!
40 Asa nfo nono katwa fa acara, nshin ninghe na isa iyinno ba.”
And I begged your disciples to cast it out, but they could not.”
41 Yesu kauwa a woro, “Anung anan salin nyinnu nin kuji kugbas, udu kishiyari nba yinu uso nanghinu danin nsaun fe kikane.”
Then in answer Jesus said: “O unbelieving and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you and put up with you (pl)? Bring your (sg) son here!”
42 Na gone din cinu uduwe agbergenu yaunghe ilina kutyin atunna nketizu. Yesu kpada Uruhu unanzang, ashino nin gone, anin nakpa ucife.
But while he was still coming the demon threw him down and convulsed him. Then Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, healed the child, and gave him back to his father.
43 Vat mine yene nziziki ngbardang Kutelle, na vat mine nkiffo tunu nile imon asu, ani woro nono katuwa mye,
Everyone was amazed at the majesty of God. But while all were marveling at all the things which Jesus did, He said to His disciples,
44 “Na to tigbulanghe do piit nnit nacara nanit.”
“Let these words sink into your ears, because the Son of the Man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men.”
45 Na inin wa yinin ule idiru ba, Bara na uwa nyeshin kiti mine na iyinno liti nlire ba. Vat nani nlanza fiu nworu itiringhe uliru une.
But they did not understand this saying; indeed it was concealed from them, in order that they should not perceive it; and they were afraid to ask Him about it.
46 Manyardang fita nanya mine, nbelleng nworu ghari ba so udiya mine.
Then an argument started among them as to which of them would be the greatest.
47 Yesu nin yiru nkpilizu nibinai mine, a yicila kagone kabene a yisa likot me,
So Jesus, perceiving the reasoning of their heart, took a little child and had him stand beside Him,
48 Anin woro nani, ulenge na asere gono kane, asere menku. Ulenge na asere menku, asere ulenge na ana tuuyi, ulenge na aceo liti me nafo gono kibene amere ba so udya nanya mine.
and said to them: “Whoever receives this little child in my name receives me; and whoever receives me receives Him who sent me. Further, he who is least among all of you, he will be great.”
49 Yohanna kauwa, “Cikilari tiyene umong nutuzunu nagbergenu nin lisafe, tinanin wantinghe, bara na adi ndortu nari ba.”
Then John reacted by saying, “Master, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we forbade him because he does not follow with us.”
50 Na iwa wantinghe ba, “Ubellun Yesu, vat nlenge na adi nivira nan ghinu ba unminere.”
So Jesus said to him, “Do not forbid, because he who is not against us is for us.”
51 Na ayiri nyiu me nda susut aceo umuro me udu Urushelima.
Now it happened, as the days for His Ascension approached, that He set His face to go to Jerusalem,
52 Ato anan kadura nbun me, inya ipira kagbir Nsamariya, ikeleghe imone.
and He sent messengers ahead of Him. And as they went, they entered a village of the Samaritans, so as to prepare for Him.
53 Anite kikane wa tighe mahabi ba, bara amal ciu umuro me udu Urushelima.
But they did not receive Him, because He was heading for Jerusalem.
54 Na nono katuwa me, Yakubu nin Yohanna inyene nani, iworo, “Cikilari titi ulah tolu umolu nani?”
Well, when His disciples, James and John, saw this, they said, “Lord, do you want us to call fire down from heaven and consume them, just like Elijah did?”
55 A gitirino a kpada nani.
But He turned and rebuked them saying: “You do not know of what sort of spirit you are.
56 Itunna inya udu nkan kagbir.
Further, the Son of the Man did not come to destroy men's lives, but to save.” And they went to another village.
57 Na idin cine libau we, umon woroghe, “Meng ba dofin fi udu kika na uba duu.”
Now as they journeyed on the road, it happened that someone said to Him, “Lord, I will follow you wherever you go.”
58 Yesu kauwa a woroghe, “Ninyan yau dinin tiyyi, Anyin yita nin nado, meng gono nnit dinin kiti nciu liti ba.
So Jesus said to him, “The foxes have dens and the birds of the air have nests, but the Son of the Man has no place to lay His head.”
59 Anin woro nmong, “Dofini.” Ame woroghe, “Cikilari ucizine na ndo ndi kassu ucif nigh.”
Then He said to another, “Follow me!” But he said, “Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father.”
60 Ame atimine anan nkul, fe can udi belle piit nin npash uliru kipin tigo Kutelle.”
Jesus said to him, “Let the dead bury their own dead, but you go and proclaim the Kingdom of God.”
61 Umong ugang woroghe, “Meng ba dofinfi Cikilari, na ntuu ndi bellin anan kilari nighe meng nya.”
And another also said, “I will follow you, Lord, but first allow me to bid farewell to those who are at my house.”
62 Yesu kauwa a woroghe, “Na umong duku alenge na ata ucara me nkeke nikawa, asa a gitirno, na abase upiri kipin tigo Kutelle ba.”
But Jesus said to him, “No one who puts his hand to ‘the plow’ and looks back is suitable for the Kingdom of God.”
