Matthew 16
1 Here the Pharisees and Sadducees came up, and, to test Jesus, requested him to show them some sign from the heavens.
Falisieninbaleni Sadusieninba tianba den cua Jesu ki bua ki biigi o. Bi den mia wan tieni yaa bancianma n baa tie sinankeeni ki doagidike o ñani U Tienu kani.
2 But Jesus answered: “In the evening you say ‘It will be fine weather, for the sky is as red as fire.’
Jesu den goa ki yedi ba: Ku joafangu yi yen yedi: Mi yenma baa tieni saala, kelima tanpoli moandi.
3 But in the morning you say ‘To-day it will be stormy, for the sky is as red as fire and threatening.’ You learn to read the sky; yet you are unable to read the signs of the times!
Ku tasoangu mo yi yen yedi: Ki taaga baa mii dinla, kelima tanpoli moandi ki biigidi. Yi bani ki diidi tanpoli sinankeeninba ki bundi lan yedi yaala, ama yii bani ki diidi ya sinankeeninba n tiendi n bua ki yedi yaala.
4 A wicked and unfaithful generation is asking for a sign, but no sign shall be given it except the sign of Jonah.” So he left them and went away.
Moala niba yaaba n bia ki go ha U Tienu sanhoadima miadi sinankeeni. Bi kan tieni bipo sinankeentoa kali Jonasa yua. Lani, o den fii ki ñani bikani ki ban caa.
5 Now the disciples had crossed to the opposite shore, and had forgotten to take any bread.
Ban den duodi ki gedi nepo yaa boanjaali, bi hoadikaaba den sundi kaa taa dupen.
6 Presently Jesus said to them: “Take care and be on your guard against the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
Jesu den yedi ba: Fangi mani yi yula bonhanla leni Falisieninba leni Sadusieninba daliali.
7 But the disciples began talking among themselves about their having brought no bread.
Bi hoadikaaba den bungi bi pala nni: Li tie kelima tin ki taa dupen yeni yaa po yo.
8 On noticing this, Jesus said: “Why are you talking among yourselves about your being short of bread, O men of little faith?
Jesu den bandi ban bungi yaala ki yedi: Yinba yaaba ya dandanli n ki yaba, be n teni ke yi bungi ke n maadi yeni kelima yii taa dupen yaa po yo.
9 Do not you yet see, nor remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took away?
Yi daa kpaagi ki bandi yo? Yii tiadi bi dupenmuudiba keni a nitudimuuda po leni yin den gbieni yaa baabuodi banlu?
10 Nor yet the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many basketfuls you took away?
Bi yii tiadi bi dupenleleediba leni a nitudinaada po, leni yin go den gbieni yaa baabuodi banlu?
11 How is it that you do not see that I was not speaking about bread? Be on your guard against the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
Li ga lede ke yii bandi ke min yedi yin fangi yi yula leni Falisieninba leni Sadusieninba daliali yeni, ke mii maadi dupen po ka?
12 Then they understood that he had told them to be on their guard, not against the leaven of bread, but against the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Lanwani bi ji den bandi ke laa tie ke o yedi ban fangi bi yula leni dupen yaa daliali ka, ama ke li tie Falisieninba leni Sadusieninba bangime.
13 On coming into the neighbourhood of Caesarea Philippi, Jesus asked his disciples this question — “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?”
Jesu n den pundi Filipa diema ya Sesale, o den buali o hoadikaaba yaa buali n tie na: Bi niba tua ke mini o Joa Bijua tie hme?
14 “Some say John the Baptist,” they answered, “Others, however, say that he is Elijah, while others again say Jeremiah, or one of the Prophets.”
Bi den goa ki yedi o: Bine tua ke a tie Jan Batisi, bine ke a tie Elia, bine mo ke a tie Jelemi, yaaka bi sawalipuaba siiga nni yendo.
15 “But you,” he said, “who do you say that I am?”
O den goa ki buali: Yi mo te, yi mo nan yedi ke n tie hme yo?
16 And to this Simon Peter answered: “You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God.”
Simono Pieli den goa ki yedi o: A tie U Tienu n Gandi Yua, U Tienu yua n fo Bijua.
17 “Blessed are you, Simon, Son of Jonah,” Jesus replied. “For no human being has revealed this to you, but my Father who is in Heaven.
Jesu dengoa ki yedi o: Li pamanli ye leni a, Simono, Jonasa bijua, kelima nisaalo ka waani a la, n Baa yua n ye tanpoli n doagidi opo la.
18 Yes, and I say to you, Your name is ‘Peter — a Rock, and on this rock I will build my Church, and the Powers of the Place of Death shall not prevail over it. (Hadēs g86)
N mo yedi a ke a tie Pieli. N baa maa min yini yaaba laa tangu po, baa mi kuuma diema paaciamu kuli kan fidi ki paadi gu. (Hadēs g86)
19 I will give you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven. Whatever you forbid on earth will be held in Heaven to be forbidden, and whatever you allow on earth will be held in Heaven to be allowed.”
N baa teni atanpoli diema bonluoda. han baa loli yaala handuna nni kuli, li baa loli tanpoli po. Han baa lodi yaala mo handuna nni kuli, li baa lodi tanpoli po.
20 Then he charged his disciples not to tell any one that he was the Christ.
Lane o den maadi leni o hoadikaaba leni li bali, ki yedi ke ban da waani oba ke o tie U Tienu n Gandi Yua.
21 At that time Jesus Christ began to explain to his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem, and undergo much suffering at the hands of the Councillors, and Chief Priests, and Teachers of the Law, and be put to death, and rise on the third day.
Laa yogun u Jesu den cili ki doagidi ki wangi o hoadikaaba ke li tie tiladi wan gedi Jelusalema, ke Jufinba nikpeliba leni bi kopadicianba yudanba leni li balimaama bangikaaba n waani o fala boncianla, ke bi niba n kpa o, ama ke o baa fii bi tinkpiba siiga li dantaali daali.
22 But Peter took Jesus aside, and began to rebuke him. “Master,” he said, “please God that shall never be your fate!”
Pieli den piadi o ki jaligi o ki yedi o: U Tienu n da cedi lan tieni a, o Diedo. Li kan pundi a kani.
23 Jesus, however, turning to Peter, said: “Out of my way, Satan! You are a hindrance to me; for you look at things, not as God does, but as man does.”
Ama Jesu den jigidi ki yedi Pieli: ña n puoli, Sutaani, a tie npo tingbali bonla, kelima a yantiana naa tie U Tienu yaa yaa, ama bi nisaaliba ya yantiana.
24 Then Jesus said to his disciples: “If any man wishes to walk in my steps, let him renounce self, and take up his cross, and follow me.
Lani Jesu den yedi o hoadikaaba: Yua n bua ki yaa hoa nni kuli, wan yie o yuli ki taa o dapoanpoanli ki bugi, kinan yaa hoa nni.
25 For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, and whoever, for my sake, loses his life shall find it.
kelima yua n bua ki ga o miali baa biani li, ama yua n baa biani o miali kelima mini yaa po kuli, baa goa ki la li.
26 What good will it do a man to gain the whole world, if he forfeits his life? or what will a man give that is of equal value with his life?
O nilo ya baa ki diedi handuna kuli ke o naano nan bodi, li baa hanbi opo be? Bi o nilo baa pa ki lebidi o naano?
27 For the Son of Man is to come in his Father’s Glory, with his angels, and then he ‘will give to every man what his actions deserve.’
Kelima o Joa Bijua baa ti cua leni o Baa kpiagidi ki yegi leni n malekinba. Laa yogunu o baa guani yua kuli nani o tuona n tie maama.
28 I tell you, some of those who are standing here will not know death till they have seen the Son of Man coming into his Kingdom.”
N waani yi i moamoani, yaaba n ye nakanba tianba kan kpe kaa laa ke o joa Bijua cua o diema nni.
