Mark 11
1 When they came near to Jerusalem, they came to Bethphage and Bethany [villages] near Olive [Tree] Hill. Then Jesus [summoned] two of his disciples.
Jesu leni o ŋoadi kaaba n den nagini jelusalema ban den ye betifaje leni betani naginma ki ku leni olife juali Jesu den soani ŋoadikaaba lie ki yedi ba:
2 He said to them, “Go to that village just ahead of you. As soon as you enter it, you will see a donkey that no one has ever ridden, that has been tied {people have tied} up. Untie it, and then bring it [to me].
gedi mani yaa dogu n ye yi liiga yi ya kua lienni yaa yogunu yi ba la li ŋunbisaagili ke li luo, yaali nilo ba kuli daa jagini o yin lodi o ki cuani ne.
3 If anyone says to you, ‘Why are you doing that?’, say, [‘Jesus], our Lord, needs [to use] it. He will send it back here [with someone] as soon as [he no longer needs it].’”
Nilo yaa buali yi be teni ke yi tieni line? Yin yedi o o diedo n bua o lani o baa teni yin cuani o.
4 So [the two disciples] went and they found the young donkey. It was tied close to the door [of a house], which was beside the street. Then they untied it.
Bi den gedi ki sua li ŋunbisaagili luo bu buliñoabu kani bi den lodi o.
5 Some of the [people who were there] said to them, “Why are you untying the donkey?”
Ya niba n den ye li kani den buali ba yi tieni be n yeni?
6 They told them what Jesus had said. So the people permitted them [to take the donkey].
Bi den guani ba nani Jesu n den yedimaama lani bi den cedi ke bi gedini li.
7 They brought the donkey to Jesus. [The disciples] put some of their clothes on it [in order to make something for him to sit on].
Bi den cuani li ŋunbisaagili yeni Jesu kani ke bi niba den lugidi ki maani bi tiadi opo ke Jesu jagini li.
8 Many people spread their cloaks on the road [to honor him as a king]. Others, [in order to honor him], spread along the road branches that they cut from [palm trees] in the fields [beside the road].
Bi niba boncianla den ladi bi tiadi u sanu nni bine mo i tibeni ban den ja yi i kuani nni.
9 The people who were going in front of him and behind him were all shouting [things like], “Praise God!” “May God bless this one who comes (with his authority/as his representative) [MTY].”
Yaaba n den ye Jesu liiga leni yaaba n den ŋoa o puoli kuli den kpaani ki tua: ti pagi U Tienu, U Tienu n seligi yua n kpenda o diedo yeli nni
10 “May you be blessed {May [God] bless you} when you rule [like] our ancestor [King] David ruled!” “Praise God who is in the highest heaven!”
U Tienu n seligi yaa bali n baa je ne, Dafidi n den kpa dini yaa bali. O diedo yeli n ba ti kpiagidi ŋali tanpoli joma.
11 He entered Jerusalem [with them], and then he went into the Temple [courtyard]. After he looked around at everything [there], he left [the city] because it was already late [in the afternoon]. He returned to Bethany with the twelve [disciples and slept there].
Jesu den kua U Tienu diegu nni o den diidi li bonla kuli nani ki yenga n den bua ki kua o den gedi Betani wan leni bi piiga n niliediba.
12 The next day, as Jesus and his disciples were leaving Bethany, Jesus was hungry.
Lan den fii ki fa ke bi ñani Betani, mi koma den cuo Jesu.
13 He saw from a distance a fig tree with all its leaves, so he went [to it] to see if he could find any [figs] on it. But when he came to it, he found only leaves on it. This was because it was not yet time when [normal fig trees have ripe] figs.
Jesu den laa bu kankanbu ŋali foagima ke bu pia ti faadi o den gedi ki baa la ŋali o yaa baa ba bonla ba bu kani. Ama wan den nagini o den sua kali ti faadi bebe, kelima laa den tie a kankana lonma yogunu.
14 [But to illustrate how God would punish the nation of Israel, ] he said to the tree, “No one shall ever eat from you again [because you will no longer bear figs].” The disciples heard what he said. (aiōn g165)
O den maadi ki yedi oba kuli nda go ŋmani a bonluonkaala, o hoadikaaba den gbadi wan yedi yaala. (aiōn g165)
15 Jesus and his disciples went [back] to Jerusalem. He entered the Temple [courtyard. He saw people] who were selling and buying [animals for sacrifices. They were spoiling the place of worship]. He chased those people [from the Temple courtyard.] He also overturned the tables of those who were giving Temple tax money in exchange for Roman coins. He overturned the seats of the men who were selling doves [for sacrifices],
Bi den pundi Jelusalema ke Jesu den kua U Tienu diegu nni o den deli a kpenkpenda leni yaaba n da U Tienu diegu nni. O den tudi ki luni bi ligilebiba tabilinba leni yaaba n kuadi a kpajela kalikaani.
16 and he would not allow anyone who was carrying anything [to sell] to go through the Temple [area].
Waa den tuo ke nilo ba kuli n go tugi bonlaba kuli ki poandi U Tienu diegu nni.
17 Then as he taught those people, he said to them, “It is written {[One of the prophets] wrote} [in the Scriptures that God said], ‘[I want] my house to be called {[people] to call my house} a house where [people from] all nations may pray’, but you bandits have made it [like] a cave where you can hide! ([You know that!/Do you not know that]?) [RHQ]”
O den bangi ba ki yedi: laa diani ke n diegu baa yi i jaandi diegu i nibuoli kuli po kaa? Ama yinba wan teni ke ku tua a sugida wuonkaanu.
18 The chief priests and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws [later] heard [about what he had done]. So they planned how they might kill him, [but they knew that it would be difficult], because they realized that the crowd was amazed at what he was teaching and they feared [that the people would soon decide that Jesus had more authority over the Temple than they did] (OR, [feared what the people would do if they tried to arrest Jesus]).
Bi kopadicianba leni li bali maama bangi kaaba n den gbadi laa maama bi den lingi ban baa tieni maama ki kpa o, bi den jie kelima o bangima den cuo bi niba kuli pala.
19 That evening, [Jesus and his disciples] left the city [and again slept in Bethany].
Ku yenjuagu n den pundi Jesu den ñani u dogu nni.
20 [The next] morning, while they were going along [the road toward Jerusalem, they saw that the fig tree that Jesus had cursed] had withered completely.
Lan den fii ki fa ke bi goa u dogu nni, ban den poa da bu kankanbu yeni kani, bi den la ke bu kuodi ki taani leni bu jiini.
21 Peter remembered [what Jesus had said to the fig tree] and he exclaimed to Jesus, “Teacher, look! The fig tree that you cursed has withered!”
Pieli den tiadi yaala n den tieni ki yedi: canba diidi ŋan den soli yaa kankanbu yeni kuodi.
22 Jesus replied, “[You should not be surprised that God did what I asked]! You must trust that God [will do whatever you ask him to do]!
Jesu den taa mi maama ki yedi: ya pia mani li dandanli U Tienu po.
23 [Also] note this: If anyone says to this hill, ‘Be raised up {Rise up} and then be thrown {throw yourself} into the lake!’ and if he does not doubt [that what he asks for will happen], that is, if he believes that what he asks for will happen, [God] will do it for him.
N yedi yi imoamoani o nilo yaa yedi li naa juali fii ki ban lu a yuli mi ñincianma nni kaa maliti o pali nni ama ki daani ke wan yedi yaala baa tieni o baa la ke li tieni.
24 So I tell you, whenever you ask [God] for something when you pray, believe that you will receive it, and, [if you do, God] will do it [for you].
Lani yaapo n yedi i moamoani yin ba jaandi ki miadi yaala kuli yin daani ke yi baa la lani yi baa ba la.
25 Now, I [tell you this also]: Whenever you are praying, if you have a grudge against people [because they have harmed you], forgive them, in order that your Father in heaven will [likewise] forgive your sins.”
Yin se ki jaandi yaa yogunu kuli ki tiadi ki tiadi ke yi pia maama leni niloba yin pa mani o sugili ke yi ba yua n ye tanpoli n pa yi mo sugili yi yaa tuonbiadi po.
Ama yi yaa puuni yi lieba sugili, yi baa yua n ye tonpo moko kan pa yi sugili yi tuonbiadi po.
27 Jesus and his disciples arrived in the Temple [courtyard] in Jerusalem again. While Jesus was walking [there, a group consisting of] chief priests, [some] men who taught the [Jewish] laws, and elders came to him and they said to him,
Bi go den gedi Jelusalema Jesu n den gaandi U Tienu diegu nni yaa yogunu bi kopadicianba, li balimaama bangikaaba leni bi nikpejuoginkaaba den cua o kani. Bi den yedi o:
28 “By what authority are you doing these things? Who authorized you to do things [like those you did here yesterday]?”
li laa bali po yo ke a tiendi yaa bonla n tiene, ŋme puni a laa bali ke a tiendi laa bonla?
29 Jesus said to them, “I will ask you one question. If you answer me, I will tell you who authorized me to do those things.
Jesu den yedi ba: n moko baa buali yi u bualu yin guani npo lali n moko baa waani yi yaa bali po ke n tiendi laa bonla.
30 Did God [MTY] or people [authorize] John to baptize [those who came to him]?”
Jan n den batisi bi niba yeni o den ba li bali tanpoli po bi, bi bi nisaaliba kane? Waani nni mani.
31 They debated among themselves [as to what they should answer]. They [said to each other], “If we say that it was God [who authorized] him, he will say to us, ‘Therefore, (you should have believed what John said!/why did you not believe what John said?) [RHQ]’
Bi den tua bi yaba, ti ya yedi ke o den ba li bali tanpoli o ba yedi: be teni ke yii den daani o maama?
32 On the other hand, if we say that it was people [who authorized John, then what will happen to us]?” They were afraid [to say that about where John got his authority, because they knew that] the people [would be very angry with them. They knew that] all the people truly believed that John was a prophet [whom God had sent].
Ti ya yedi bi niba kani mo, ... bi den jie bi niba, kelima bi niba kuli den nua ke Jan tie sawalipualo.
33 So they answered Jesus, “We do not know [where John got his authority].” Then Jesus said to them, “[Because you did not answer my question, I] will not tell you who authorized me to do those things [here yesterday].”
Lanwani bi den goa ki yedi Jesu tii bani. Lani Jesu den goa ki yedi ba, n moko kan waani yi yaa bali yaa po ke n tieni laa bonla.
