Matthew 18
1 In that hour the disciples came to Yeshua, saying, “Who then is greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven?”
Lanyognu, ke bi ŋɔdkaaba nagni Jesu kani, ki buali o “ŋma n yabi ki cie U Tienu Diema nni?”
2 Yeshua called a little child to himself, and set him in the middle of them
Ke Jesu yini ki biñidga o kani, ki seni ga bi siiga, ki yedi, “N maadi yi i mɔni, I yaa lebdi ki tua nani biwaaga yeni, i kan baa ya sanu ke i ba kua U Tienu Diema nni
3 and said, “Most certainly I tell you, unless you turn and become as little children, you will in no way enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.
4 Whoever therefore humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven.
Lanwani ii, yua n miini o yuli nani ki biwaaga ne, wani n yabi ki cie U Tienu Diema nni.
5 Whoever receives one such little child in my name receives me,
Yua n ga biwaaga nani kine yeni, n yeli po, o ga n ya cangu i.
6 but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for him if a huge millstone were hung around his neck and that he were sunk in the depths of the sea.
Ama, yua n cedi ke biwaaga yua n dugi n po nani kine yeni, kua tuonbiadi nni, li bi baa tu o po, ke ban loli li naacianli o tulu nni, ki lu o wan mii mi ñincianma nni.
7 “Woe to the world because of occasions of stumbling! For it must be that the occasions come, but woe to that person through whom the occasion comes!
Mi yema ya paagi, janjanma ŋanduna po! kelima li buali ke li yogu n pundi, ama, sola li yogu ń ba tɔgni yua ya kani, ki pundi!
8 If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life maimed or crippled, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into the eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)
A nugu bii a taali ya kuandi a mi tudma nni, ŋan jia ki lu fagma. Li baa tu a po ŋan kua U Tienu diema nni yeni taayenli bii nuuendu ki cei yeni ban lu ŋa ya mu n ki pia gbindma buogu nni yeni taana lie bii nugi lie. (aiōnios g166)
9 If your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the Gehinnom of fire. (Geenna g1067)
A nunbu n ya kuandi a mi tudma nni, ŋan kpigdi bu, ki lu fagma. Kelima li baa tu a po ŋan kua U Tienu Diema nni yeni nunfiagu ki cie ba lu ŋa ya mu n ki pia gbindma buogu nni yeni nuni lie kuli. (Geenna g1067)
10 See that you don’t despise one of these little ones, for I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven.
Fangi mani i yuli, ki da ŋa a bila ne siiga, bá biyenga nunga ń ŋmidi. Kelima n maadi yi i mɔni ke ŋajanli nni, bi malekinba nua N Báa yua nye U Tienu diema nni.
11 For the Son of Man came to save that which was lost.
ke lima, O Nilo Bijua cua ki bua faabi yaali n bodi i.
12 “What do you think? If a man has one hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine, go to the mountains, and seek that which has gone astray?
I maalma tie be i? Nilo ya pia yandi yiani, ke yanyenga bodi, o kan ŋa piiyia n yandi yia yaadi n sieni, ki lingi ki yanbodkaaga aa?
13 If he finds it, most certainly I tell you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine which have not gone astray.
O ya la ga, N maadi yi i mɔmɔni, o pali yi mangi li yanga po ki cie piiya n yandi yia yaadi n ki bodi.
14 Even so it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.
Li tie yeni i, I báa yua n ye ŋaljanli nni mo ki bua ke a bbila ne nni, bá biyenga ń bia.
15 “If your brother sins against you, go, show him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained back your brother.
A kpiilo ya biidi a, ŋan gedi ki waani o o biidi, fini yeni wani siiga, a ba maadi ki paadi a kpiilo i.
16 But if he doesn’t listen, take one or two more with you, that at the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
Ama, o ya ki cengi a, ŋan la yendo bii bilie ki pugni a po, ban taani a yeni, kasiedinba bilie bii bitaa siiga, mi maama ba ŋmagdi.
17 If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the assembly. If he refuses to hear the assembly also, let him be to you as a Gentile or a tax collector.
O ya yie kaa cengi yi, ŋan gedi yeni li maama li nitaali nni. O ya yie kaa cengi li nitaanli, ŋan ŋa o wan tua a po nani o nilamo bii o lonpogaalo yeni.
18 Most certainly I tell you, whatever things you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven, and whatever things you release on earth will have been released in heaven.
I mɔmɔni, N maadi yi, yin ba loli yaali tinga nni, li ba loli Tanpoli, yin ba lodi yaali ting nni, li ba lodi Tanpoli.
19 Again, assuredly I tell you, that if two of you will agree on earth concerning anything that they will ask, it will be done for them by my Father who is in heaven.
N go maadi yi ke i siiga nni, bilie ya taani jagli ki mia bonli ki tinga nni ne, N Báa yua n ye Tanpoli ba cedi li bonli ń tieni.
20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the middle of them.”
Kelima, bilie bii bitaa ya taani naani n yeli po, n baa ye bi siiga.
21 Then Peter came and said to him, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Until seven times?”
Ke Piari nagni ki buali Jesu, “O Diedo, n kpiilo ya biidi nni, n ba mia sugli taalma ŋa i? Hali taalma lele ee?”
22 Yeshua said to him, “I don’t tell you until seven times, but, until seventy times seven.
Ke Jesu jiini o, “N ki yedi taalma lele ka, ama hali piilele taalma lele.
23 Therefore the Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.
Lanwani ii, U Tienu Diema tie nani ya badciamo n den bua tieni li cɔli ki bandi o naacenba ń kubi o piama maama i.
24 When he had begun to settle, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents.
Wan cili mi diidma, o sua ke naacenyendo kua li panli nni hali ligdibala tuda piiga.
25 But because he couldn’t pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, with his wife, his children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.
Nani wan den ki pia wan ba tieni maama ki pa yeni, ke canbaa niini ke ban kuadi o wani yeni o pua yeni o bila yeni wai yaali kuli, ki pa o panli.
26 The servant therefore fell down and knelt before him, saying, ‘Lord, have patience with me, and I will repay you all!’
Ke li naaciemo baá ki gbaani o nintuali, ki mia o sugli, “Canbaa, N bani li panli po, ke N ba pa likuli”
27 The lord of that servant, being moved with compassion, released him and forgave him the debt.
Nani li naaciemo canbaa ń bo tie niñinpadi daano yeni, ke o ga o sugli, ki cabi o li panli.
28 “But that servant went out and found one of his fellow servants who owed him one hundred denarii, and he grabbed him and took him by the throat, saying, ‘Pay me what you owe!’
Ama, li naacimo ń ñani ki la o naacenlielo ke o pia o pia o panli kuukobga. Ke o gedi ki cegi o tulu, ki yedi o, “Pa nni n ligi.
29 “So his fellow servant fell down at his feet and begged him, saying, ‘Have patience with me, and I will repay you!’
Ke o naacenlielo baa ki gbaani, ki mia o sugli ki maadi, “Tieni n po juunli, n ba pa ŋa.”
30 He would not, but went and cast him into prison until he should pay back that which was due.
Ama, ke o naaciemo yie, ki cuo o naacenlielo ki gedi ki luoni o li kpaadidieli nni, ke o yaa pani o panli, o kan ña.
31 So when his fellow servants saw what was done, they were exceedingly sorry, and came and told their lord all that was done.
Bi naacenlieba ń la yaali n tieni, ke bi pali sia, ke bi kua ki togdi bi canbaa kaa dɔgni o bápu.
32 Then his lord called him in and said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me.
Ke o naaciemo canbaa yini o, ki yedi o, “N cabi a ŋan pia nni ya panli kuli, kelima a mia nni sugli.
33 Shouldn’t you also have had mercy on your fellow servant, even as I had mercy on you?’
Nani a naacenlielo ń mia ŋa sugli yeni, fini bi kan fidi ki cabi o oo?
34 His lord was angry, and delivered him to the tormentors until he should pay all that was due to him.
O canbaa pali den beni o po, ke o cuo o, ki mubni o a jakɔnda nui nni ke bi waani o fala hali ke o pani o panli kuli.
35 So my heavenly Father will also do to you, if you don’t each forgive your brother from your hearts for his misdeeds.”
N Báa yua n ye Tanpoli mo ba tieni yi yeni, li ya tie ke i siiga nilo pali ki siadi o lielo po.
