Luke 8
1 Shortly afterward, Jesus went on a journey through the towns and villages, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God. With him went the Twelve,
Lan den pugini waami, ke jesu gedi a longbanani yen i dogiciamani, k muadi U Tienu maama.
2 as well as some women who had been cured of wicked spirits and of infirmities. They were Mary, known as Mary of Magdala (from whom seven demons had been expelled),
O Den ye yen o ŋuankaaba piig n bonbilie, yen bi puobi yaaba kuli den bieli t cicibianda ke gɔ paagidi bi yiama: Mari, Magidala pua yua ko den paagu k cicibiada lele den kub bo.
3 and Joanna (the wife of Herod’s steward, Chuza), and Susannah, and many others – all of whom provided for Jesus and his apostles out of their own resources.
Sann, chuza denpua, chuza den tie Herod tuonsɔnli, Suzann yeni o lieba kuli den todi jesu yeni o ŋuankaaba yeni bi ŋalimanu
4 Once, when a great crowd was collecting, and, when the people of town after town were flocking to Jesus, he spoke to them in the form of a parable,
O nuwuligu den ñan a longbana nni k cua o kani, k jesu pua ba ya maa kpanjama ne:
5 “The sower went out to sow his seed; and, as he was sowing, some of the seed fell along the path and was trodden on; and the wild birds ate it up.
O kpakpaalo den ñani, ke bi pagi o bonbi, wan den pagi yeni, ke mi bonbima baa o sankuni, k bi ŋmaadi, ke ti bonyugiti dini.
6 Other seed fell on rock, and, as soon as it began to grow, because it had no moisture, it withered away.
Tianli baa a tana ni ke pani ke kpe, kelima i tinga den kuoni.
7 Other seed fell in the middle of brambles, but the brambles grew up with it and choked it entirely.
Li tianli mɔ baa ti konkondi ke pani, ama ti konkondi fii ki luoni li po.
8 Other seed fell into rich soil, and grew, and gave a hundredfold return.” After saying this, Jesus cried aloud, “Let those who have ears to hear with hear.”
Ke li liela baa i tinŋanga po, ke pani ke loni a luana. Jesu pugini ke maadi: ... yua pia a tuba ke cengi, wan cengi
9 His disciples asked Jesus the meaning of this parable.
O ŋuandikaaba bual'o l maa kpanjama niima ni.
10 “To you,” he said, “the knowledge of the hidden truths of the kingdom of God has been imparted, but to others in parables only, so that though they have eyes they may not see, and though they have ears, they may not understand.
Ko maadi ba: yinba la li yumanli gbia U Tienu diema ŋasiili, ama lieba po li tie maa kpanjama. Bi pia i nuni, ama bi naa nua; bi cengi, bi naa gbia.
11 This is the parable – The seed is God’s message.
Diidi mani li maa kpanjama niima ni: U Tienu maama,
12 By the seed which fell along the path are meant those who hear the message; but then comes the devil and carries away the message from their minds, to prevent their believing it and being saved.
“o sankuni” tie yaaba cengi mi maama, ama sitaan n cua ke kua bi pala ni ke bel'o, wan da daani li maama po ke la mi faabma.
13 By the seed which fell on the rock are meant those who, as soon as they hear the message, welcome it joyfully; but they have no root, and believe it only for a time, and, when the time of temptation comes, they draw back.
A tana po tie: yaabi n cengi mi maam, ke tuo yeni li pamanli, ama ke kan ŋa lan kpa jiina bi po. Bigili yogunu, wan sundi li kuli po.
14 By that which fell among the brambles are meant those who hear the message, but who, as they go on their way, are completely choked by this world’s cares and wealth and pleasures, and bring nothing to perfection.
“Mi bonbima yaali baa ti konkondini” wangidi, yaaba cengi mi maama, ama ke ŋa mi maalima, mi piama yen li ŋandunli bona n cedi wan da loni luana.
15 But by that in the good ground are meant those who, having heard the message, keep it in the good, rich soil of their hearts, and patiently yield a return.
“Mi bonbima yaali baa i tinnŋanga ni”maadi ti, ya niba n cengi U Tienu maama ke biligidi bi pala ni ke suani yenli li tuonli, ke puni li juunli ke loni a luana.
16 “No one sets light to a lamp and then covers it with a bowl or puts it underneath a couch, but they put it on a lamp-stand, so that anyone who comes in may see the light.
... Bi ki congi fidili ki cubidi bobili ni bii k wuondi gadogu yagima nni, bi yi tuani naani ke bi niba ya kua, ban la mi yinyema.
17 Nothing is hidden which will not be brought into the light of day, not ever kept hidden which will not some day become known and come into the light of day.
Yaali wuo mɔlane kuli, te bi juodi ke ña mi yinyema nni yen ya bonli n tie ŋasiili, te ba dogidi li daa gbengili daali.
18 Take care, then, how you listen. For, to all those who have, more will be given; while, from all those who have nothing, even what they seem to have will be taken away.”
ŋanbi mani ki diidi i yula po, yin cengi maama, kelima, yua pia bi ba pugini wani; ama yua pia, ban gaa wan daani ke pia yaali.
19 Presently Jesus’ mother and brothers came where he was, but they were not able to join him because of the crowd.
Jesu naa yen o ŋuandikaaba cua ki lagu, ama bi bo ki fidi nagin'o ki dugini o nuwuligu po.
20 So word was brought to him – ‘Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.’
Ke bi maad'o: a naa yen a ŋuandikaaba ye cincanli ki kpaan'a.
21 His reply, spoken to them all, was, “My mother and my brothers are those who listen to God’s teaching and do what it says.”
... N naa yen n ŋuandikaab tie yaaba n cengi U Tienu maama, ki gɔ tugidi k suani li tuonli lan buali maama.
22 One day about that time, Jesus got into a boat with his disciples and said to them, “Let us go across the lake.”
Daa yenli k jesu den kua o ñin biaguni wan i yeni o ŋɔdkaaba. Yeni ko maadi ba: ... tin puodi mani bongbantianli po. K bi tugi o ñin-gbanu.
23 So they put off. While they were sailing, Jesus fell asleep. A squall swept down on the lake, and their boat was filling and they were in danger.
Ban bo puodi ya yogunu, k jesu guandi. Ko faaciangu kpil k fidi o ñinbɔnguni. Mi ñima den bua cubini o ñinbiagu. Li ji den paa bi po.
24 So the disciples came and roused him. “Sir, Sir,” they cried, “we are lost!” Jesus rose and rebuked the wind and the rushing waves, and they fell, and a calm followed.
K jesu ŋɔdikaaba den nagini ki yigini ki fiin'o: canbaa, canbaa mi ñima bu di ti naa. Ko findi k gaa mi jama o faalu yen a ñinguona po, k li kuli sedi suoo.
25 “Where is your faith?” he exclaimed. But in great awe and amazement they said to one another, “Who can this be, who commands even the winds and the waves, and they obey him?”
Li puoli po ko maadi o ŋɔdikaaba: ... i dindanli ye le e? ti jawandi yeni o yaalidigu den kua ba, k bi maadi bi ŋmialini: O ne tie ŋma i? diidi mani: o pia ti yikodi o faalu yeni a ñinguona po, k bi cɔlini o.
26 They reached the region of the Gerasenes, which is on the opposite side to Galilee,
B ji bo kua Gerasa doguni, li bo ye Galile nuntuali.
27 and, on getting ashore, Jesus met a man, who had demons in him, coming out of the town. For a long time this man had worn no clothing, and he had not lived in a house, but in the tombs.
Ya yogunu k jesu bo tugi o taali ki ŋmaa i tinga po, o doguni o nulo yua k ti cicibiadi bo kub'o yeni, bo sani ki cend'o. O den ki yie tiadi ki gɔ ki kpendi deni, ama o den yi dua a kakula nni.
28 Catching sight of Jesus, he shrieked out and threw himself down before him, and in a loud voice exclaimed, “What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you not to torment me.”
Ya yogunu ko la jesu, ko baa ki gbaani o taana po ki yigini yeni o paalu kuli. ... A bua be n po, jesu, U Tienu badicamo biga? N miad'a sugili, da wangidini fala.
29 For Jesus was commanding the foul spirit to come out of the man. On many occasions it had seized him, and, even when secured with chains and fetters, and watched, he would break through anything that bound him, and be driven by the demon into the wilds.
O bo maadi yeni kelima jesu bo cedi k ti cicibiadi kuli siedi ki ŋagu. Yeni ban bo yi lol'o yeni i kudiseseli a taana yeni o nugi, o bo yi cie li kuli, ti cicibiadi n tug'o ke kua yen'o li fuali nni.
30 “What is your name?” Jesus asked. “Legion,” he answered (for many demons had taken possession of him);
Jesu bual'o: ... A yeli i? ... ŋmian'o: ti yabi. Kelima ti fuobiidi boncianli den ŋuagu.
Li fuobiidi den miadi jesu sugili k wan da kuan ba naani tie fala kangbediguni. (Abyssos g12)
32 There was a herd of many pigs close by feeding on the hill-side; and the demons begged Jesus to give them leave to enter into them. Jesus gave them leave.
Li den sua ki duoli boncianli den kobi li kani k bi kpaab li juali po. K ti cicibiadi ne mia jesu sugili, k wan cabi ba, k ban gedi ki kua li duoli nni. Ko cabi ba.
33 They came out from the man and took possession of the pigs; and the herd rushed down the steep slope into the lake and were drowned.
K bi ŋaa li ja, ki ji kua li duoli nni. Ki li duoli ñani li juali, k san sani ki baa mi ñima nni kpe.
34 When the men who tended them saw what had happened, they ran away, and carried the news to the town, and to the country around.
A duogula n la yeni, ki bi sani k gedi ki pagi o dogu nni, yen i dogbanbimu nni
35 The people went out to see what had happened, and, when they came to Jesus, they found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting, clothed and in his right mind, at Jesus’ feet; and they were awe-struck.
K bi niba ña, k caa ki diidi yaali bo tieni. Bi bo pundi jesu kani, k la o ja yua k ti fuobiidi bo siedi kani yeni, ko kaa jesu taana po. O den la ti tiadi, ki li ba kuli ji k kub, o. Ti jawandi den kua ba.
36 Those who had seen it told them how the possessed man had been delivered.
Yaabi bo la ya bona n bo tieni kuli lan kani, ki bi dugini maama ki ti fuobiidi yaadi k ŋaa li ja, ko ji la mi faabima.
37 Then all the people in the region of the Gerasenes asked Jesus to leave them, for they were terrified. Jesus got into a boat and returned.
Gerase dogu niba kuli, ti jawandi bo kua ba boncianli. K bi maadi jesu k wan ña bi dogu nni. Ko guani k kua o ñinbiagu nni k lebidi
38 The man from whom the demons had gone out begged Jesus to let him be with him; but Jesus sent him away.
Ko ja yua ti fuobiidi bo ñan o kani yeni, buali jesu k wan cian'o, ama jesu bo bel'o, k maad'o: kuni a deni k pan waan ba, yaali ko tienu tieni a po.
39 “Go back to your home,” he said, “and relate the story of all that God has done for you.” So the man went through the whole town and proclaimed, as he went, all that Jesus had done for him.
Ko kuni ki pagi yaali n tieni ne kuli.
40 On his return, Jesus was welcomed by the people; for everyone was looking out for him.
Wan den guani galile, bi niba boncianli den gagu kelima bi den gu o baama.
41 And a man named Jairus, who was a synagogue leader, came to Jesus, and threw himself at Jesus’ feet, with entreaties that he would come to his house,
Li yogunu ja ba cua jesu kani ko yeli tie jayiris, o den tie o jandieguni canbaa. Ko baa k gbaani jesu taana po ki miagu sugili k wan cua o deni.
42 because his only daughter, who was about twelve years old, was dying. As Jesus was going, the people were pressing closely around him.
O bonpuoyenga ko pia nani piiga yen bina lie yeni, k den mɔ yeni mi kuuma. K jesu fii k gedi o kani, ko nuwuligu tudi k mɔ ban nagini jesu kani.
43 And a woman, who had suffered from hemorrhage for twelve years, and whom no one could cure,
Li kani pua ba den ye ki wuuli o faadi kli k koligidi, hali piiga yeni bina lie. O bo biani o ligi kuli dogida deni, ama o bo ki fidi ki tebi o ba.
44 came up behind and touched the tassel of his cloak. Instantly the hemorrhage ceased.
Ko nagini jesu puoli po ki sii o liadili, ki li yogunu mɔno, ko faadi sedi.
45 “Who touched me?” Jesus asked; and, while everyone was denying having done so, Peter exclaimed, “Why, Sir, the people are crowding around you and pressing against you!”
K jesu buali: ... ŋma n sii nni? Nani bi kuli n bo tieni mi niama, k Pial maadi: ... canbaa, tin diidi mani, o nuwuligu lini ki maba.
46 “Somebody touched me,” said Jesus, “for I felt that power had gone out from me.”
Ama kop ŋmian'o: ... o nulo sii nni, kelima mi tuama o paalu ñani n gbano nni.
47 Then the woman, when she saw that she was discovered, came forward trembling, and threw herself down before him; and, in the presence of all the people, she told him her reason for touching him, and that she had been cured instantly.
Wan bo la li kuli k li k tie wuolin bonli, ko pua nagini, ki jegili, ki baa ki gbaani jesu taana po k cili ki dugidi yaali ya po ko siigu yeni wan paag'o maama toma.
48 “Daughter,” he said, “your faith has delivered you. Go, and peace be with you.”
K jesu maadi li pua: ... n bipuoga, a paagi ki dugini a dindanli yabi n po. Ya caa k laafia n cian'a
49 Before he had finished speaking, someone came from the house of the synagogue leader and said, “Your daughter is dead! Do not trouble the teacher further.”
O da den k maadi ki gbeni, ko nulo ñan li jandidieli nni canbaa deni, k maad'o: a jafaanu kpe o, ji da mabi canbaa.
50 But Jesus, hearing this, spoke to the leader, “Do not be afraid; only have faith, and she will yet be delivered.”
Jesu den gbadi li maama, ko maadi Sayiris: ... da jie, ya duu n po baba, a jafaano ba paagi.
51 When he reached the house, he did not allow anyone to go in with him, except Peter, John, and James, and the child’s father and mother.
Wan pundi deni, o ki cabi ki nulo ba kua, lan ñani: Pial, San, Sak yeni i biga náa yeni o baà.
52 And everyone was weeping and mourning for her. “Do not weep,” Jesus said, “she is not dead; she is asleep.”
Kaana kuli den tie: bubuuli yeni i fanfabini. K Jesu maadi: da buudi mani, o ki kpe ka, ama o guandi.
53 They began to laugh at him, for they knew that she was dead.
Bi niba den ñuadi laagu ki ban nani ko kpe i.
54 But, taking her by the hand, Jesus said in a loud voice, “Child, rise!”
Yeni k jesu cuo i bonpuo biga nugu, k maadi yeni o paalu: ... n biga fii!
55 The child’s spirit returned to her, and she instantly stood up; and Jesus ordered them to give her something to eat.
O den guani ki fuodi, k fii, k jesu maadi: k ban ten'o mi jiema wan je.
56 Her parents were amazed, but Jesus impressed on them that they were not to tell anyone what had happened.
K li yaa ki lidi o dama. Jesu den kpaaba tiadiba, k ban da ŋa bi niba n bandi yaala n tieni.
