Matthew 11
1 And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished giving instructions to his twelve disciples, he passed on from thence, to be teaching and proclaiming in their cities.
Jesu n gbeni o tunda yeni o ŋuankaaba, ko puodi ya longbanbimu sien ki tugni ki muandi U Tienu maama.
2 Now, John, hearing in the prison the works of the Christ, sending through his disciples,
San bo ye o dansaldiegun ki gbia ya tuoŋana bo tie kuli, k o sɔni o ŋuankaaba k bi bual o:
3 said unto him, Art, thou, the coming one? or, a different one, are we to expect?
fin n tie yua k ti guu bii ti gɔ da ba guu tian i.
4 And, answering, Jesus said unto them—Go report unto John what ye do hear and see: —
Jesu ŋmiani: ya ca mani ki ban waani San yin la yaali yeni yin gbadi yaali:
5 The, blind, recover sight, and, the lame, walk, lepers, are cleansed, and, the deaf, hear, —and, the dead, are raised, and, the destitute, are told the joyful tidings;
bi juanbi nuni guani ki nuali, i wabbmu fii ki cuoni, a gbada nugi tandi, a tubkpaana cili ki gbia, k bi tikpiib fii t kuldn ki talgnba gbia li laabaamanli.
6 And, happy, is he, whosoever shall not find cause of stumbling, in me.
Li pamanli yabi yaabi n duu n po k bi dindanli cie.
7 But, as these were going their way, Jesus began to say unto the multitudes, concerning John, —What went ye forth into the wilderness to gaze at? A reed, by a wind, shaken?
Ban paani ki ca k jesu cili ki ji maadi San po o niwuligun nni, i gedi ki diidi bee i tinkuongn nn i? li galgunli yua ko faagu migni i?
8 But what went ye forth to see? A man, in soft clothing, arrayed? Lo! they who soft clothing do wear, are in the houses of kings.
ama i gedi ki ban la ŋmaa i? ya nilo ŋanbi ki lani k li ŋan nni? diidi mani yaabi n la ti tiaŋandi tie yabi n kua bad diegu.
9 But why went ye forth? A prophet, to see? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet.
I ji gedi ki ban la bee? U Tienu tondo o? n, i bi jiin n, o cie U Tienu tondo.
10 This, is he, concerning whom it is written, —Lo! I, send my messenger before thy face, who shall make ready thy way before thee!
Kilima li tie yua k li bo diani ki maadi: diidi mani, n bi sɔni n tondo k wan bobni i sɔni ki guudi a cuama.
11 Verily, I say unto you—There hath not arisen, among such as are born of women, a greater than John the Immerser, —yet, he that is less in the kingdom of the heavens, is, greater than he.
Yeni i mɔni n mkaadi, bi puobi madn kuli, ti da ki la San ya lielo, li tie yeni ti Diedo diema nni i big n tie ciamo k cie bi kuli.
12 But, from the days of John the Immerser, until even now, the kingdom of the heavens, is being invaded, and, invaders, are, seizing upon it.
Lan cili San yognu ki pan pundi hali mɔlane, ti Diedo diema ti mi tuami, ki bi gbanmandanbi kɔni bi ŋmiali nni.
13 For, all the prophets and the law, until John, did prophesy;
Kilima bi tondikaabi yeni ti yikod kadaagu bo maadi U Tienu maami yo, k San fidi ki yuandi cua.
14 And, if ye are willing to accept it, he, is Elijah—the one destined to come.
Ki ya bua yin gbadi niimn ni, ban yi yua Elin bo bi cua.
15 He that hath ears, let him hear!
Ki yua pia ti tubdi ki ba gbadi, wan gbadi.
16 But, unto what, shall I liken this generation? It is, like, unto children, sitting the market-places, who, calling unto the others,
Ki mɔlane nibi ne, bi naani yeni bi lee? ya bila n kaa bi niba n paa ki tigli naani, k sieni, ki yi bi lieba,
17 say, We played the flute to you, and ye danced not, —we sang a lament, and ye beat not the breast.
ki maadi: ti piebi i naagbaamu (i yelmu), ama i ki jeli (ŋɔni ciagi), k ti yini i kuuyani, i ki mɔni kumɔni (ku bubuuli).
18 For, John, came, neither eating nor drinking, and they say—A demon, he hath!
Ki dugni, San cua k ki di, k ki ñu (ki lolgi o ñɔbu), k bi yedi ki cicibiadmu ŋuagu.
19 The Son of Man, came, eating and drinking, and they say, Lo! a gluttonous man and a wine-drinker! a friend of, tax-collectors, and sinners! And yet wisdom hath been justified by her works.
Ki nufosaali bijua cua ki di, ki ñu, ki bi yedi k o puoli mani ki kandi, ka tie dañuuli, k tie lonpogaala yeni bi bid danbi dɔnli. Ama mi yanfuomi waani o tuona nni yaali ntie bonmɔnli.
20 Then, began he to upbraid the cities, in which had been done his noblest mighty works; because they repented not: —
Li yognu k Jesu cili ki ji fu yeni ya nibi k bi dogin k bi tieni ti paldi boncianli, k bi tɔgu nan ki lebdi.
21 Alas for thee, Chorazin! Alas for thee, Bethsaida! Because, if, in Tyre and Zidon, had been done the works of power, which were done in you, of old, in sackcloth and ashes, had they repented.
Yubonli a po, koransen! yubonli a po betesayida! ki dugni ya yaalidgu bona tieni i siigni ya bo tieni Tiir yeni Sodɔm, hali daal o mani bi tugi o kpalpiagu yeni mi fantanpiema ki tuuba o.
22 Moreover, I say unto you, For Tyre and Zidon, more tolerable, will it be, in the day of judgment, than for you.
Li ya po i k n maadi: daa jijuog buud daali, Tiir yeni Sodɔm b la sugli ki cie yi i.
23 And, thou, Capernaum! Unto heaven, shalt thou be uplifted? Unto hades, thou shall be brought down; because, if, in Sodom, had been done the works of power, which were done in thee, it would, in that case, have remained until this day. (Hadēs g86)
Fin, Kafarnawuum, a mali k fin yeni a yabnu kuli a ba si tawlgbɔngu i? N n, a ba jiidi hali o tinkpiigun, ki dugni ya yaalidgu bona tieni a siigni k a k lebdi ne ya bo tieni Sodɔm i, mani o da sieni ki ye dinla daali. (Hadēs g86)
24 Moreover, I say unto you—For the land of Sodom, more tolerable, will it be in a day of judgment, than, for thee.
Li po n cedi k n maadi, k daa jijuogi daali sodɔm buud baa suu yen ni.
25 In that season, answered Jesus, and said—I openly give praise unto thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, —in that thou hast hid these things from the wise and discerning, and hast revealed them unto babes;
Li yognu k Jesu gaa mi maama ki maadi: n dond a, ti Diedo, poli yeni tinga canbaa ́, yeni ŋan wuoni bi yanfuodanbi yeni bi nunfandanbi ya bona ki nan tugi lani ki waani a bila.
26 Yea, O Father! That, so, it hath become, a delight, before thee.
N, n Baá, n dond a yeni ŋan bua ki lan ya tie yeni.
27 All things, unto me, have been delivered up by my Father; and, no one, fully knoweth the Son, save the rather, neither doth any one fully know, the Father, save, the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son, may be minded, to reveal, him.
N Baá ten nni u paalu bonli kuli po, k nul k bani bijua, li ya ki tie Baá yaa ka, k nul ki bani Baá li ya ki tie o bijua yaa ka yeni yua k o bijua waani o
28 Come unto me! all ye that toil and are burdened, and, I, will give you rest:
Cua mani n kani, yinbi yaabi n cɔgi, ki tugi k li kpiagi, k min teni mi fuoma.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me, —because, meek, am I and lowly, in heart, and ye shall find rest unto your souls;
Tugi man n fala ki cengi m maami, ki dugni n tie pasiadaani ki gɔ jiind nba, ki bi la i nalimi fuoma.
30 For, my yoke, is easy, and, my burden, light.
Ki dugni, n tugli yua k ki kpiagi.
