Matiyu 11
1 Na Yesu wa malu uni nnono katwa me likure nan wabe kadura, a nya kikane cundu nanya Nigbiri udu ndursuzu nani tipinpin.
AND it came to pass, when Jesus had finished his injunctions to his twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and preach in their cities.
2 Na Yuhana nlaza kilari licin, kata ka na Kristi dumun, a to nono katwa me kadura inung naba.
Then John, having heard in prison the works of Christ, sent two of his disciples,
3 aworo nani, can idi woroghe, “Fere ule na udin cinu udake, sa tiso nca nmong?”
and said unto him, Art thou he that cometh, or should we expect another?
4 Yesu kawa aworo nani, “Can idi belin Yuhana ku imon ilenge na ilanza iyene.
And Jesus answering said unto them, Go, and tell John what things ye hear and see.
5 Adu din sesu uyenju kiti, anan sali nabunu din cin, akutulu se ushinu, a turi din lanzu tutung, abi din fituzu nin lai, idin bellu anan sali nimon uliru ulau.
The blind receive sight, and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the poor have the gospel preached to them.
6 Unan mariari ule na ase imon ntirzu liti ning ba.”
And blessed is he whosoever shall not be offended at me.
7 Na ale anite nya libau mine, Yesu cizina ubelu ligonzine uliru litin Yuhana, “Inyaghari i do nyenje nanya kusho- ufunu nzunu nkpe myena?
And when they were gone, Jesus began to speak to the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind?
8 Ani inyaghari inuzu ndin yenje ndas- unit na ashono imon tigowa? Nanere, ale na idin sho imon tigo sosin nilari Tigo.
But what went ye out to see? A man clothed in delicate garments? Lo! they who wear delicate garments are in the houses of kings.
9 Sa nyaghari ido idi yene ndase- unan liru nin nu Kutelle? Eh nbelin minu tutun, ukatin unan liru nin nu Kutelle.
Yet what went ye out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and abundantly more than a prophet.
10 Ulengenere ame ule na iwa yertin litime, 'yenjen nma tu unan kadura ning nbun timuro mine, ulenge na ama ke udina ning nbun mine.'
For this is he of whom it is written, “Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.”
11 Nbelin minu kidegene, vat nale na kumat nwani, na warum duku na akatin Yuhana unan shintu nanit nyen ba. Vat nani unit ubene kilari tigo kitene kani katinghe.
Verily I say unto you, There hath not arisen, from those born of women, a greater than John the Baptist: yet he that is the least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
12 Unuzu nayirin Yuhana unan shintu nanit nmyen udak nene, kilari tigo kitene kani nneu nin fizu nayi, tutun anit anan fizu naye na bolu nin likara.
But from the days of John the Baptist unto the present, the kingdom of heaven is assaulted by violence, and the invaders forcibly seize upon it.
13 Bara vat anan liru nin nu Kutelle nin duka wa tizu amoro alau udakin Yuhana.
For all the prophets and the law until John, foretold this.
14 Andi tutung iyina userun nin, ulele amere Iliya, urika na awadi unan dak.
And if ye will receive it, this is Elias who was to come.
15 Ame ulenge na adinin natuf nlanzu, na alanza.
He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
16 Inyaghari nma batu ko kuje mun? Imasin nonoari navu nkasa, alenge nasa iso iyica atimine.
But to whom shall I resemble this generation? it is like little boys sitting in the places of concourse, and calling to their companions,
17 Inin woro, 'tidin wulsu fi fishira na udin yizunu ba. Tiyita tiyom ana ugila ba.'
and saying, We have piped to you, and ye have not danced; we have sung mournful ditties to you, and ye have not beat your breasts.
18 Bara Yuhana wadak, na awadi nli nimonli a aso nmyen narau ba iworo, 'adi nin kugbergenu.'
For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He hath a devil:
19 Gono Kutelle wa dak, nli nimonli nin so nmyen narau iworu, 'Yeneng unan su kileu kikan, nin shituzu nso, udondong nanan sesun gandu nan nanan kulapi!' Ama njijing nse ubunku bara kata me.”
the Son of man is come eating and drinking, and they say, Behold, what a man! a glutton and a wine-bibber, a friend of publicans and sinners: though wisdom hath been justified by her children.
20 Yesu cizina ukpaduzu nigbiri nirika asuzu imon izikiki ku, bara iwa nari uni nati.
Then began he to upbraid the cities in which the chief of his miracles had been wrought, because they repented not:
21 “Ukaito fe Corazin! Ukaitofe Betsaida! Nfo katwa kadidya kane na nnasu kiti mine, nwansu Ntyra nin Sidon, iwa ni ati nworsu, icino alapi mine nanyan najasi nimon nin tong.
Wo unto thee, Chorazin! wo unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the miracles which had been wrought in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, long since would they have repented in sack-cloth and ashes.
22 Bara nani, uma katinu anan Sidon ku nin Tire liri nshara Kutelle.
Wherefore I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judgment than for you.
23 Anung u Kaparnahum, idin yenju ima ghatinu minu udu kitene kane? Na nanere ba, ima tultun minu udu ukul sa ligan. Bara andi Nsodom iwa su nita nididya nanga na ina su anung ku, uwa dutuku udak kitimone. (Hadēs g86)
And thou, Capernaum, who hast been exalted unto heaven, shalt be cast down to hell: for if the miracles which have been wrought in thee had been done in Sodom, it had remained unto this day. (Hadēs g86)
24 Uma yitu sheu ni nmyin Nsodom lirin shara nbun mine.
Wherefore I say unto you, That it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment than for thee.
25 Kubi kone, Yesu woro, “ndi rufi, Ucif, Cikilari unan kitene kani nin kutyin, bara una nyeshe ilenge imone kiti na jijin nin nanan yiru, tutung umini na pun kiti nalenge na iyiru ba, nafo ninono ni bebene.
At that time Jesus spake and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and the intelligent, and hast revealed them to babes:
26 Aee Ucif, nanere una tifi mang nyenjufe.
yes, Father! since such is thy good pleasure.
27 Vat nimon inani ununzu Ncif ning. Tutung na umong yiru Usaune ba se Ucife, ana umong yiru Ucife ba se Usaune, tutung nin lenge na Usaune nyina aduroghe ame.
All things are delivered up to me by my Father: and no person knoweth the Son but the Father; neither knoweth any person the Father but the Son, and he to whom the Son is pleased to reveal him.
28 Dan kiti ning, vat anung ale na imin kutura kugetek, meng ma nimu ushinu.
Come to me, all who labour hard, and sustain heavy burdens, and I will give you relief.
29 Yaunang Kugbetu ning kiti mine imasu uyinnu kiti ning, bara ndi sheu nin kibinayi kimang, imanin se ushunu tilai mine.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest to your souls.
30 Bara kugbetu ning sheu a kutura ning di getek ba.”
For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
