Luke 14
1 And it occurred, that, as he entered the house of one of the chief Pharisees to eat bread, on the sabbath day, they watched him.
Mi fuodima daali danyenli Jesu den kua Falisieninba yudaano yendo yua n den yini o o deni ki baa je.
2 And lo, a dropsical man was before him.
Yaaba n go den cua ki baa je den kpaagi Jesu. U yianpiebiko daano den ka o nintuali.
3 And Jews answered, and said to the Scribes and Pharisees: Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath?
Jesu den maadi leni li balimaama bangikaciamo leni Falisieninba yaaba n ye li kani ki yedi ba: “Naani li pia sanu ki paagi o nilo mi fuodima daali bi, bi laa pia yo?”
4 And they were silent. And he took him, and healed him, and dismissed him.
Bi den ŋmini suo. Jesu den tandi o nuu ki mubini o yiamo yeni ki paagi o ki cabi o.
5 And he said to them: Which of you, if his son or his ox fall into a pit on the sabbath day, doth not immediately lift and draw him out?
Lani o den yedi ba: “Yi siiga ŋme ya bijua, yaaka o nua, ya baa li caali nni mi fuodima daali, o kan jaligi ki dadi ki ñani o?”
6 And they could give him no answer to that.
Baa den fidi ki guani o laa maama po liba.
7 And he spoke a similitude to the guests that were present, as he noticed how they chose places on the highest couches.
Jesu den laa ke Falisieni yeni n yini yaaba ban cua ki je yeni lingi ya kalikaani n pia ti kpiagidi ki cie, o den pua ba mi kpanjama ki yedi:
8 When thou art invited by any one to a house of feasting, go not and recline on the highest couch; lest there should be invited there, one more honorable than thou;
“O nilo ya yini a mi pocaajiema po, ŋan da gedi ki kali ya kaanu n kpiagi ki cie, lani n tie wan yini yaaba siiga n da ti pia yua ya jigidi n cie a yaadi,
9 and he that invited both him and thee come and say to thee, Give place to this man; and thou be ashamed, when thou risest, and takest a lower couch.
ke yua n yini fini leni wani kuli ya cua, wan da ti yedi a: 'Teni one u kaanu.' Lani i fe baa cuo ŋa leni ŋan baa goa ki ban kali puoli po.
10 But when thou art invited, go and recline on the lowest couch; that when he who invited thee come, he may say to thee: My friend, come up higher and recline. And thou wilt have honor, before all that recline with thee.
Ama bi ya yini a ke a pundi, ŋan ban kali puoli po ya kalikaanu. A ya tieni yeni yua n yini a ya ti cua o baa yedi a: 'N danli, cua ki kali ya kaanu n cie.' Lani li baa tua apo ti kpiagidi wan yini a yaaba kuli nintuali.
11 For, every one that exalteth himself, will be humbled: and every one that humbleth himself, will be exalted.
Yua n fiini o yuli kuli, U Tienu baa jiini o, yua n jiini o yuli mo U Tienu baa fiini o.”
12 And he said to him that invited him: When thou makest a dinner or a supper, invite not thy friends, nor thy brothers, nor thy relatives, nor thy rich neighbors; lest they also invite thee, and thou have this recompense.
Jesu go den maadi leni yua n yini o ki yedi o: “A ya yini bi niba ban cua ki je a deni, mi yensiijiema yaaka mi yenjuajiema, ŋan da yini a danlinba, yaaka a kpeliba leni a waamu yaaka yaaba n li kpi leni a kuli, yaaka a yieninlieba siiga yaaba n tie a piada, ke ban da ti goa ki mon yini a ki guani a a ŋanma.
13 But when thou makest a feast, invite the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind.
A ya baa yini bi niba mi jaanjiema po, ŋan yini a luoda leni a tadima leni a waba leni a juama.
14 And thou wilt be blessed. For they cannot recompense thee; but thy recompense will be at the resurrection of the just.
Lanwani U Tienu baa ŋanbi apo kelima bani wani kan fidi ki guani a a ŋanma. U Tienu ya ti fiini yaaba n tiendi wan bili yaala bi tinkpiba siiga, o baa guani a ma.”
15 And when one of those reclining heard these things, he said to him: Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God.
Yaaba n den ye u saajekaanu kani yendo n den gbadi laa maama, o den yedi Jesu: “Li pamanli ye leni yua n baa ba ki je U Tienu diema nni.”
16 Jesus said to him: A certain man made a great supper, and invited many.
Jesu den goa ki yedi o: “O nilo den ŋanbi mi jecianma ki yini bi niba boncianla.
17 And at the time for supper, he sent his servant to say to those invited: Lo, every thing is ready for you; come.
Mi jiema yogunu n pundi, o den soani o naacemo n ban yedi wan yini yaaba: 'Cua mani na kelima li bonla kuli ŋanbi ki gbeni no.”
18 And they all to a man, began to excuse themselves. The first said to him: I have bought a field, and am constrained to go out and see it. I pray thee, allow me to be excused.
Ama bi kuli yendo yendo den mia sugili. O nikpialo den yedi o naacemo: 'N daa u kuanu, kali min gedi ki ban la u, ŋan mia npo sugili.'
19 Another said: I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to inspect them. I pray thee, allow me to be excused.
One mo den yedi: 'N da naakpakpaadi piiga, n caa ki baan biigi ba, ŋan mia npo sugili.'
20 Another said: I have married a wife, and on this account I cannot come.
Toa moko den tedi: 'N da taa n pua moala na, lani yaapo n kan fidi ki gedi.'
21 And the servant came, and told his lord these things. Then the lord of the house was angry: and he said to his servant, Go out quickly into the market-places and streets of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the diseased, and the lame, and the blind.
O naacemo den lebidi ki guani o canbaa kani ki waani o li kuli. Lani o diedaano yeni pali den beni, ke o yedi o naacemo: 'Kua u dogu daamu nni leni u sanu nni ki cuani a luoda leni a tadima leni a juama leni a waba na.'
22 And the servant said: My lord, it is done as thou commandedst; and still there is room.
Lan yen waamu o naacemo den goa ki yedi o: 'Canbaa, n tieni ŋan bi puogi nni yaala, ama u kaanu go sieni.'
23 And the lord said to his servant: Go out to the by-paths, and among the hedges, and constrain them to come in; that my house may be filled.
Lani canbaa den goa ki yedi o: 'Ña u dogu nni ki gedi a sanbila nni leni a naga balinma, ki tigini bi niba ke ban cua ne ke n diegu n gbie.'
24 For I declare to you, that not one of those men that were invited, shall taste of my supper.
N yedi yi ke min den kpa yini yaaba yeni, bi siiga baa yendo kan leni n jiema”
25 And when great multitudes were travelling with him, he turned himself, and said to them:
A nigola boncianla den yegi leni Jesu o sancenli nni. O den jigidi ki yedi ba:
26 He that cometh to me, and hateth not his father and his mother, and his brothers and his sisters, and his wife and his children, and his own life also, cannot become a disciple to me.
“Yua n cua n kani, o yaa yie o baa leni o naa, leni o pua leni o bila, leni o kpeliba leni o waamu, baa o yuceli mo o kan tua n ŋoadikoa.
27 And he that doth not take up his cross and come after me, cannot become a disciple to me.
Yua n ki bugi o dapoanpoanli ki ŋua nni kan fidi ki ya tie n ŋoadikoa.
28 For, which of you, wishing to build a tower, doth not first sit down and compute the expense, whether he have the means to complete it?
Yi siiga ŋme baa bua ki maa ki maa li diefoagili ki kan kpa kali ki bandi wan baa biani yaala, ki le o ya pia ya ligi n baa dagidi wan gbeni.
29 lest, when he hath laid the foundation, and is unable to finish, all that see it begin to deride him;
O yaa tieni yeni, o ya pu li tanpuuli ki naa fidi ki juodi. Yaaba n baa le kuli baa ñuadi o ki yedi:
30 and say: This man began to build, and was unable to finish.
'O jao na cili li diemaali ki naa fidi ki juodi.'
31 Or what king, that is going to contend in battle with his neighbor king, doth not first consider, whether he is able, with ten thousand, to meet him that is coming against him with twenty thousand?
Bi o laa bado n baa ye ki bua ki tuogi bu toabu ki bua ki tuogi leni baditoa ki nan pia toatieba tudapiiga, naani waa ba kpa kali ki biigi o yaa fidi ki biigi o ya baa fidi ki tuogi leni yua n kpendi o kani ki pia toatieba tudapiilie?
32 and if not; while he is yet far from him, he sendeth envoys, and sueth for peace.
O ya sua ke o kan fidi, o baa soani o tondiba hali ke yibalo daa ye foagima, ki mia o wan waani o wan bua yaala, ban mangi leni bi yaba.
33 So every one of you who doth not give up all his possessions, cannot be my disciple.
Li tie yeni, yi siiga yua n ŋa wan pia yaala kuli kan tua n ŋoadikoa.
34 Salt is a good thing: but if the salt itself hath become insipid, wherewith shall it be salted?
Mi yaama tie ya bonla n mani, ama maa luo mi manu, bi baa taa be ki go mangi ma?
35 It is fit for neither the earth, nor the dunghill. They cast it away. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Maa pia mayuli ki tinga po, maa go pia mayuli ti bugidi po, kali ban lu ma bebe. Yua n pia a tuba ki baa gbadi wan gbadi.”
