Matiyu 17
1 Ayiri kutocin wa kata, Yisa yira Bitrus ku nin Yakubu a Yuhanna gwana me, ada ninghinu kitene likup lizalang inung litiime.
Six days later Jesus took with him Peter and Jamesand his brother John, and led them up a high mountain, by themselves apart.
2 Atunna asaka ukama nbun mine. Umuro me balta naffo uwui, kulutuk me ta kanag nafo nkanag.
Here he was transfigured before them; his face shone like the sun, and his garments became as white as the light.
3 Na nin nanzu kubi ba Musa nin Iliya nuzu ilira nan ghe.
And behold! Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Jesus.
4 Bitrus kawa aworo Yisa ku, “Cikilari, ucaun na arike di kikane. Andi uyinna, meng ba ke adanga atat kurum kunfe, kurum kun Musa, a kurum kun Iliya.”
Then Peter said to Jesus. "Master, it is good that we are here! If you are willing I will make here three tents, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."
5 Kubi ko na awa di nlirua na nin nanzu kubi ba kuwut nuzu ku kanag da ta nani ushin, na nin molu kubi ba liwui nuzu nan nya kuwut, aworo, “Kanere Gono kin nayi nighe, ulle na ndin nlatizu nmang me lanzan ghe.”
While he was yet speaking, behold! a luminous cloud overshadowed them; and a voice out of the cloud, saying. "This is my Son, my Beloved, in whom is my delight. Listen to him."
6 Na nono katuwa me nlanza nani, ideo nin timuro mine kutyin, iwa di nlanzu fiu.
When the disciples heard this, they fell on their faces and were terrified.
7 Ame Yisa da ada duduzo nani a woro, “Fitan yenje iwa lanza fiu.”
But Jesus came to them and touched them, saying, "Rise, have no fear!"
8 Inug yene kitene kani, na iyene umon ba, Yisa ari cas wa duku.
And when they raised their eyes they saw no one save Jesus only.
9 Na iwa kpilin unuzu kitene likupe, Yiisa kpada nani aworo, “Na iwa bellin alle amore kitin nmon ba, udu kubi ko na Usaun Nnit ba fitu nan nya nkul.”
While they were going down from the mountain, Jesus laid a command on them. "Speak to no man about the vision," he said, "until after the Son of man has been raised from the dead."
10 Nono katuwa me tiringhe iworo, “Iyaghari wati anan ninyerte wa woro Iliya ma burnu adak?”
And his disciples asked him, saying, "Why then do the Scribes say that Elijah must first come?"
11 Yisa kauwa a woro nani, “Iliya badak ada kurtunu imon vat.”
And he answered. "Elijah is coming, and will restore all things.
12 Nene meng bellin minu, Iliya namalu udak, na iyininghe ba. Nin nani, iwa a sughe vat nimon ille na idinin suwe. Nanya libau lirume, Gono Nnit ba niu nacara mine.”
"Nay, I say to you that Elijah has come already, and they did not recognize him, but did to him whatever they chose. Even so the Son of man also is about to suffer at their hands."
13 Inug nono katuwa me, yinno adin nliru nanghinu kitene Yuhanna unan Baptismari.
Then the disciples divined that he had been speaking to them about John, the Baptist.
14 Na ikpilla kiti ligozine, umon unit da kitime, ada tumuno nbun me, anin woro,
As they reached the crowd, a man came up to Jesus, and fell on his knees before him, saying.
15 “Cikilari, lanza nkune kune ngono nighe, bara adinin nkonu matirizi, adin nniu mun kang, kubi-kubi asa adiso nlah sa nmyen.
"Master, take pity on my son, for he is an epileptic and sore distressed. Often he falls into the fire and often into the water.
16 Meng da ninghe kitin nono katuwa fe, na iyinno ushinu ninghe ba.”
"And I brought him to your disciples, but they could not cure him."
17 Yisa kauwa a woro, “Anan salin nyinnu nin kuji kunanzang, udu kome kubiari mba so nanghinua? Udu kome kubiari mba nonku kibinai ninghinua? Dan ninghe kiti nig kika.”
In reply Jesus said. "O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I endure you? Bring him here to me!"
18 Yisa kpada ghe, Kugbergenue nuzu nan nya me, kwanyane shino nkone kube.
Then Jesus rebuked the evil spirit, and it came out of him; and the boy was cured from that very hour.
19 Nani nono katuwa da kiti Yisa kusari kurum i woro, “Iyaghari ntah na arik nyinnno nutunghe ba?”
Thereupon Jesus’ disciples came to him and asked him privately, "Why were we not able to cast it out?"
20 Yisa belle nani, “Bara ncingilin nyinnu sa uyenu mine. Kidegen ndin bellu minu, asa idinin yinnu sa uyenu cing nafo fiyip fikan Imustard, uwasa ubelle likup lole, 'kalla litiife kikane udo kanie,' aba du nin litime, na imomon ba yitu munu nin nijasi nsu ba.
"Because of your little faith," he answered. "In solemn truth I tell you that if you have faith the size of a mustard-seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from this place to that!’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you.
21 Vat nani imus nale agbergenu wasa inuzu nani cas ba, se ligowe nin lira a ukifu nnu.”
"But this kind is driven out by prayer alone."
22 Kube na iwa sosin Galili, Yisa belle nono katuwa me, “Iba ni gono nnit nacara nanit.
As they continued going from place to place in Galilee, Jesus said to them. "The Son of man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men;
23 Inug ba molughe, nan nya liri lintat aba fitu.” Ayi nana nono katuwa me nani yototo.
"and they will kill him, but on the third day he will rise again." And they were greatly grieved.
24 Na ida Ukafarnahum, annit alenge na iwadi imal sesu kagisin fishekel nafo ugandu, da kitii Bitrus a woroghe, “Na unan yirru mine din nizu kagisin nishekel ngandu ba?”
As they came into Capernaum the collectors of the temple tax came to Peter and asked, "Does not your Teacher pay the temple tax?"
25 A woroghe, “Nanere.” Da na Bitrus npira nan nya kilari, Yisa cizina uliru ninghe aworo, “Iyaghari udin kpilize, Simon? Ago inyi, kitinghari idin sesu ugandu kuwa? Kiti nanit minere sa kiti namara?”
"Indeed he does," answered Peter. But on Peter’s entering the house, Jesus forestalled him, saying. "How does it seem to you, Simon? From whom do earthly kings collect customs or taxes-from their own people, or from aliens?"
26 Na Bitrus nworo, “Kiti namarari,” Yisa bellinghe, “Ikala anit mine nbiuze.
And when he replied, "From aliens," Jesus said. "Then their people go free.
27 Na tiwa ti nani anan sesu ngandu isu kulapi ba, cang kulli kudia, to liwita fe nanye, uwunun fibo fo na fi burno udake. Asa upuno unu finin uba se fishekel ku, yira finin udi ni anan sesun unani ni unfe.”
"Nevertheless, that we may not give offense, go to the seaside, throw in your hook; take the first fish that rises, and when you have opened its mouth, you will find a shekel in it. Take it and give it to them for us both."
