Luke 20
1 And yt fortuned in one of those dayes as he taught the people in the temple and preached the gospell: the hye prestes and the scribes came with the elders
Esi Yesu nɔ nu fiam amewo, eye wònɔ nyanyui la gblɔm na wo le gbedoxɔ la me le ŋkeke mawo dometɔ ɖeka dzi la, nunɔlagãwo kple agbalẽfialawo kple dumegãwo va ƒo xlãe heɖe ɖeklemi kplii.
2 and spake vnto him sayinge. Tell vs by what auctorite thou doest these thinges? Ether who is he yt gave ye this auctorite?
Wogblɔ nɛ be, “Gblɔe na mí, ŋusẽ kae nètsɔ wɔ esiawoe? Alo ame kae na ŋusẽ sia wò?”
3 He answered and saide vnto the: I also will axe you a questio and answer me.
Eɖo eŋu be, “Nye hã mabia nya ɖeka mi hafi maɖo miaƒe biabia ŋu na mi.
4 The baptyme of Iohn: was it from heaven or of men?
Biabia lae nye, ‘Yohanes ƒe mawutsidede ta na ame ɖe, Dziƒo wòtso loo alo amewo gbɔ wòtsoa?’”
5 And they thought with in them selves sayinge: yf we shall saye from heave: he will saye: why then beleved ye him not?
Wodzro nya sia me le wo ɖokuiwo dome, eye wogblɔ be, “Ne míegblɔ be, ‘Etso dziƒo’ la, abia mí be, ‘Ekema nu ka ŋutie miexɔ edzi se o?’
6 But and yf we shall saye of men all ye people will stone vs. For they be persuaded that Ihon is a Prophet.
Ne míegblɔ hã be, ‘Amewo gbɔ wòtso la,’ ekema ameha la katã awɔ funyafunya mí, elabena woxɔe se vevie be Yohanes nye nyagblɔɖila.”
7 And they answered that they coulde not tell whence it was.
Mlɔeba la woɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Míenya afi si wòtso o.”
8 And Iesus sayde vnto them: nether tell I you by what auctorite I do these thinges.
Ale Yesu gblɔ na wo be, “Ekema nye hã nyemagblɔ ŋusẽ si metsɔ wɔ nu siawo la na mi o.”
9 Then begane he to put forthe to the people this similitude. A certayne man planted a vyneyarde and let it forthe to fermers and went him selfe into a straunge countre for a greate season.
Yesu gatrɔ ɖe ameha la gbɔ, eye wòdo lo sia na wo be, “Ŋutsu aɖe de waingble, eye wòtsɔe de agbledela bubuwo si hedzo yi du didi aɖe me afi si wònɔ ƒe geɖe.
10 And when the tyme was come he sent a servaut to his tennauntes that they shuld geve him of the frutes of the vyneyarde. And the tennauntes dyd bet him and sent him awaye empty.
Esi nuŋeɣi ɖo la, edɔ eƒe dɔla ɖeka ɖo ɖe agbledelawo gbɔ be wòava xɔ waingble la ƒe kutsetsea ƒe akpa si nye etɔ gome la vɛ. Gake agblea dzi kpɔlawo ƒo dɔla la vevie, eye wogbugbɔe ɖo ɖa asi ƒuƒlu.
11 And agayne he sent yet another servaunt. And they dyd bet him and foule entreated him also and sent him awaye emptye.
Agbletɔ la gadɔ dɔla bubu ɖa, gake wowɔ eya hã nenema; woƒoe, eye esi wodo ŋukpee la, wonyae wòdzo asi ƒuƒlu.
12 Moreover he sent the thyrde to and him they wouded and cast out.
Agbletɔ la gadɔ ame etɔ̃lia ɖo ɖa agblea dzi kpɔlawo. Wode abi eŋu, eye wotsɔe le agblea me ƒu gbe.
13 Then sayde the lorde of the vyneyarde: what shall I do? I will sende my deare sonne him peradventure they will reverence when they se him.
“Agbletɔ la gblɔ na eɖokui azɔ be, ‘Menya nu si mawɔ! Madɔ vinye lɔlɔ̃tɔ la ɖe wo gbɔ. Meka ɖe edzi be woade bubu eya ŋu.’
14 But when the fermers sawe him they thought in them selves sayinge: this is the heyre come let vs kyll him that the inheritaunce maye be oures.
“Gake esi agblea dzi kpɔlawo kpɔ via wògbɔna la, wogblɔ be, ‘Nu si dim míele la va ɖo. Ame si ava nyi eƒe dome nenye be megali o lae nye esi va do! Mina míawui be eƒe domenyinu nazu mía tɔ.’
15 And they cast him out of the vyneyarde and kylled him. Now what shall the Lorde of the vyneyarde do vnto them?
Ale wolée, hee do goe le waingblea me heyi ɖawu.” Yesu bia ameha la be, “Nu ka miebu be agbletɔ la awɔ?
16 He will come and destroye those fermers and will let out his vyneyarde to other. When they hearde that they sayde: God forbyd.
Magblɔe na mi. Agbletɔa ava, eye wòana woawu ame vɔ̃ɖi siawo, eye wòatsɔ waingble la de ame bubuwo ƒe dzikpɔkpɔ te.” Nyaselawo alo ameha la gblɔ nɛ be, “Kpao, meganɔ nenema o!”
17 And he behelde them and sayde: what meaneth this then yt is wrytten: The stone that the bylders refused the same is made ye heed corner stone?
Yesu kpɔ wo dũu hegblɔ be, “Ke nu kae mawunya wɔnɛ esi wogblɔ be, “‘Kpe si xɔtulawo gbe la, eyae va zu kpe si wotsɔ ɖo dzogoe na xɔa’?”
18 whosoever stomble at that stone shalbe broken: but on whosoever it faul vpon it wyll grynde him to powder.
Egblɔ kpe ɖe eŋu be, “Ame sia ame si akli kpe sia la aŋe afɔ. Ke ame si dzi wòage adze la, agbã gudugudu.”
19 And the hye Prestes and the Scribes the same howre went about to laye hondes on him but they feared the people. For they perceaved that he had spoken this similitude agaynst them.
Esi nunɔlagãwo kple agbalẽfialawo se ŋutinya si Yesu gblɔ la, wodi be yewoalée enumake elabena wonya be yewo ŋutie wòdo loa ɖo, gake wovɔ̃ ameha la.
20 And they watched him and sent forth spies which shuld fayne them selves perfecte to take him in his wordes and to delyvre him vnto the power and auctorite of the debite.
Esi wonɔ mɔnu dim le eŋu ta la, wodɔ ame aɖewo ɖe egbɔ be woawɔ wo ɖokuiwo abe ame dzɔdzɔewo ene, ne woalée le nya me, ne yewoadee asi na amegãwo kple mɔmefia hena tohehe nɛ.
21 And they axed him sayinge: Master we knowe that thou sayest and teachest ryght nother cosiderest thou eny manes degre but teachest the waye of God truly.
Wova Yesu gbɔ va gblɔ nɛ be, “Aƒetɔ, míenyae be nufiala anukwaretɔe nènye. Ètoa nyateƒe ɣe sia ɣi, eye mèkpɔa ame aɖeke hã ŋkume o, ke boŋ èfiaa nu si nye Mawu ƒe mɔwo.
22 Ys it laufull for vs to geve Cesar tribute or no?
Azɔ gblɔ wò susu na mí tso nya sia ŋuti. Enyo be míadzɔ nu na Kaisaro loo alo menyo o.”
23 He perceaved their craftynes and sayde vnto them: why tept ye me?
Yesu kpɔ aye si wɔm ameawo nɔ la dze sii, eya ta wògblɔ be,
24 Shewe me a peny. Whose ymage and superscripcio hath it? They answered and sayde: Cesars.
“Mitsɔ kɔba ɖeka nam makpɔ ɖa. Ame ka ƒe tatae nye esia le kɔba sia dzi? Eye ame ka ƒe ŋkɔe le tata la te?” Woɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Kaisaro si nye Roma duwo katã dzi ɖula ƒe tatae.”
25 And he sayde vnto them: Geve then vnto Cesar that which belongeth vnto Cesar: and to God that which pertayneth to God.
Egblɔ na wo be, “Ekema mitsɔ nu si nye Kaisaro tɔ la nɛ, eye mitsɔ nu si nye Mawu tɔ la na Mawu!”
26 And they coulde not reprove his sayinge before the people. But they marvayled at his answer and helde their peace.
Ale mɔ si wotre nɛ be wòaɖee le ameha la ŋkume la mete ŋu ɖee o. Eƒe nyaŋuɖoɖo la wɔ nuku na wo ale gbegbe be ɖoɖoe zi le wo nu.
27 Then came to him certayne of the Saduces which denye that ther is eny resurreccio. And they axed him
Azɔ Zadukitɔ aɖewo, ame siwo xɔe se be ame kukuwo ƒe tsitretsitsi aɖeke meli o la
28 sayinge: Master Moses wrote vnto vs if eny mannes brother dye havinge a wyfe and the same dye with out yssue: that then his brother shuld take his wyfe and reyse vp seede vnto his brother.
va Yesu gbɔ kple nya sia be, “Mose ƒe se gblɔ be nenye be ŋutsu aɖe ɖe srɔ̃, gake wo kple srɔ̃a medzi vi hafi wòku o la, nɔvia ŋutsu naɖe ahosia, eye vi si woadzi la anye ame si ku la tɔ.
29 Ther were seven brethren and the fyrste toke a wyfe and dyed with out children.
Míenya ƒome aɖe, si me ɖekakpui adre nɔ. Tsitsitɔ ɖe srɔ̃, gake medzi vi aɖeke hafi ku o.
30 And the seconde toke the wyfe and he dyed chyldlesse.
Ame si dzɔ ɖe eyome la ɖe ahosia, gake eya hã medzi vi kplii hafi trɔ megbe o.
31 And the thyrde toke her and in lyke wyse the resydue of the seven and leeft no chyldren be hynde them and dyed.
Ke etɔ̃lia hã ɖee, eye nu sia yi edzi ʋuu va se ɖe esime ɖekakpui adreawo katã ɖe ahosia kpɔ, gake ɖeke medzi vi kplii hafi ku o.
32 Last of all the woma dyed also.
Nyɔnua hã va ku mlɔeba.
33 Now at the resurreccio whose wyfe of them shall she be? For seven had her to wyfe.
Azɔ míaƒe biabia lae nye be, ame ka srɔ̃e nyɔnu sia anye nenye be wofɔ tso ku me? Elabena ŋutsuawo katã ɖee kpɔ!”
34 Iesus answered and sayde vnto them. The chyldre of this worlde mary wyves and are maryed (aiōn g165)
Yesu ɖo eŋu na wo be, “Ame siwo le agbe le xexe sia mee woɖo srɔ̃ɖeɖe anyi na. (aiōn g165)
35 but they which shalbe made worthy to enioye that worlde and the resurreccion from deeth nether mary wyves nether are maryed (aiōn g165)
Gake ame siwo dze be woƒe asi nasu xexe kemɛ kple fɔfɔ ɖe tsitre yi dziƒo la, womaɖe srɔ̃ o, eye womatsɔ wo ana be woaɖe hã o. (aiōn g165)
36 nor yet can dye eny moare. For they are equall vnto the angels: and are the sonnes of God in as moche as they are the chyldre of the resurreccion.
Womagaku hã o, ale woanɔ abe mawudɔlawo ene, eye woanye Mawu viwo, elabena wofɔ wo ɖe tsitre tso ame kukuwo dome.
37 And that the deed shall ryse agayne even Moses signified besydes the busshe when he sayde: the Lorde God of Adraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Iacob.
“Ke le ame kukuwo ƒe tsitretsitsi ŋuti la, Mose gɔ̃ hã gblɔe fia le ŋuve mumu si nɔ bibim la gbɔ, esi wòyɔ Mawu be, ‘Abraham ƒe Mawu, Isak ƒe Mawu kple Yakob ƒe Mawu.’
38 For he is not the God of the deed but of them which live. For all live in him.
Menye ame kukuwo ƒe Mawu wònye o, ke boŋ ame gbagbewo tɔe, elabena wo katã wole agbe nɛ.”
39 Then certayne of the Pharises answered and sayde: Master thou hast well sayde.
Sefialawo dometɔ aɖewo gblɔ be, “Nufiala, ègblɔe nyuie ŋutɔ!”
40 And after that durst they not axe him eny question at all.
Ale wodzudzɔ woƒe nyawo biabia, elabena dzi megale wo ƒo be woagabia nya aɖekee o.
41 Then sayde he vnto them: how saye they that Christ is Davids sonne?
Azɔ Yesu tsɔ biabia sia ɖo woƒe ŋkume be, “Nu ka ta wogblɔ be Kristo la nye Fia David ƒe vi ɖo?
42 And David him selfe sayth in the boke of the Psalmes: The Lorde sayde vnto my Lorde syt on my right honde
Elabena David ŋutɔ gblɔ le Psalmowo ƒe agbalẽ me be, “‘Aƒetɔ la gblɔ na nye Aƒetɔ be, “Bɔbɔ nɔ nye nuɖusime,
43 tyll I make thine enemys thy fothe stole.

44 Seinge David calleth him Lorde: How is he then his sonne.
David yɔe be, ‘Aƒetɔ’ Aleke wɔ wòaganye via?”
45 Then in the audience of all the people he sayde vnto his disciples
Yesu trɔ ɖe eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo ŋu le esime ameha la nɔ to ɖomii, eye wògblɔ na wo be,
46 beware of the Scribes which desyre to goo in longe clothinge: and love gretynges in the markets and the hyest seates in the synagoges and chefe roumes at feastes
“Mikpɔ nyuie le sefialawo ŋuti, elabena wolɔ̃a awu ʋlayawo dodo, eye wodina be amewo nado gbe na yewo ne yewole zɔzɔm le ablɔwo dzi. Wolɔ̃a teƒe kɔkɔwo nɔnɔ le ƒuƒoƒewo, eye wodia kplɔ̃tanɔnɔ vevie le nuɖukplɔ̃ɖoƒewo.
47 which devoure widdowes houses and that vnder a coloure of longe prayinge: the same shall receave greater damnacion.
Woxɔa ahosiwo ƒe aƒewo le wo si, eye wodoa kpɔkpɔ wo ɖokuiwo to gbe didiwo dodo ɖa me. Ame siawo tɔgbi axɔ tohehe sesẽtɔ.”
