Luka 10
1 Azɔ Aƒetɔ Yesu tia nusrɔ̃la bubu blaadre-vɔ-eve, eye wòdɔ wo eveve ɖo ɖe du kple kɔƒe siwo me eya ŋutɔ ɖo be yeava yi emegbe la me.
Now after these things, the Lord also appointed seventy-two others, and sent them two by two ahead of him into every city and place, where he was about to come.
2 Egblɔ na wo be, “Nuŋeŋe la sɔ gbɔ, gake dɔwɔlawo mede ha o, eya ta miɖe kuku na nuŋeŋe la ƒe Aƒetɔ be wòadɔ dɔwɔlawo aɖo ɖe eƒe nuŋeŋe la me.
Then he said to them, "The harvest is indeed plentiful, but the laborers are few. Pray therefore to the Lord of the harvest, that he may send out laborers into his harvest.
3 Azɔ miheyi, eye miɖo ŋku edzi be miele abe alẽvi siwo wodɔ ɖo ɖe amegaxiwo dome ene.
Go your way. Look, I send you out as lambs among wolves.
4 Migatsɔ ga aɖeke ɖe asi o, migatsɔ mɔzɔkotoku loo alo afɔkpa dodo bubu o. Migagblẽ ɣeyiɣi le mɔ dzi anɔ gbe dom na amewo o!
Carry no money bag, nor pack, nor sandals; and greet no one on the way.
5 “Ne miege ɖe aƒe aɖe me la, gbã, migblɔ be, ‘Ŋutifafa na aƒe sia.’
Into whatever house you enter, first say, 'Peace be to this house.'
6 Ne ŋutifafame aɖe le afi ma la, miaƒe ŋutifafa anɔ edzi; ke ne menye nenem o la, agbugbɔ ava mia dzi.
If a peaceful person is there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you.
7 “Nenye be mieɖo kɔƒe aɖe me la, miganɔ tsatsam tso aƒe me yi aƒe me o, midze aƒe ɖeka ko me, eye miaɖu nu alo ano nu sia nu si wotsɔ ɖo mia kɔme la numaƒomaƒoe. Nenye be wona nane mi la, migagbe exɔxɔ o, elabena dɔwɔla ɖe sia ɖe dze na eƒe fetu.
Remain in that same house, eating and drinking the things they give, for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house.
8 “Nenye be miege ɖe du aɖe me eye dua me tɔwo xɔ mi nyuie la, ekema miɖu nu sia nu si wotsɔ ɖo miaƒe akɔme.
Into whatever city you enter, and they receive you, eat the things that are set before you.
9 Mida gbe le dɔnɔ siwo le afi ma la ŋu, eye miɖe gbeƒã na wo be, ‘Mawufiaɖuƒe la va ɖo mia dome vɔ azɔ.’
Heal the sick who are in it, and tell them, 'The Kingdom of God has come near to you.'
10 “Ne womexɔ mi le du aɖe me o la, mige ɖe dua ƒe ablɔwo dzi ne miagblɔ be,
But into whatever city you enter, and they do not receive you, go out into its streets and say,
11 ‘Míeʋuʋu miaƒe du ƒe ke si lé ɖe afɔwo ŋuti na mí ɖi abe ɖaseɖiɖi ene. Ke minya nyuie be: mawufiaɖuƒe la gogo.’
'Even the dust from your city that clings to our feet, we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that the Kingdom of God is near.'
12 Mele gbe tem ɖe edzi na mi be nuwo anɔ bɔbɔe na Sodom wu du sia le Ʋɔnudrɔ̃gbe la.
I tell you, it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that city.
13 “Baba na wò Korazin! Baba na wò Betsaida! Elabena ne Tiro kple Sidon duwo mee mewɔ nukunu siwo mewɔ le mia dome le la, anye ne ameawo trɔ dzime xoxoxo, ata akpanya anɔ anyi ɖe afi me.
"Woe to you, Chorazin. Woe to you, Beit Tzaidah. For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
14 Le nyateƒe me la, tohehe si woana Tiro kple Sidon la anɔ wodzoe wu esi woana mi le ʋɔnudrɔ̃gbe la.
But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you.
15 Mi Kapernaumtɔwo, ɖe woade bubu mia ŋuti le dziƒoa? Gbeɖe, woaɖo mi ɖe dzomavɔʋe la me.” (Hadēs g86)
And you, Kfar-Nahum, will you be exalted to heaven? You will be brought down to Sheol. (Hadēs g86)
16 Egblɔ na nusrɔ̃lawo be, “Ame siwo ɖo to mi la, nyee woɖo toe, eye ame siwo gbe mi la, nyee wogbe eye ame siwo gbem la gbe Mawu ame si dɔm ɖa la.”
Whoever listens to you listens to me, and whoever rejects you rejects me. Whoever rejects me rejects him who sent me."
17 Esi nusrɔ̃la blaadre-vɔ-eveawo trɔ gbɔ la, wogblɔ nɛ dzidzɔtɔe be, “Aƒetɔ, ne míeyɔ wò ŋkɔ ko la, gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo gɔ̃ hã ɖoa to mí.”
The seventy-two returned with joy, saying, "Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name."
18 Yesu ɖo eŋu be, “Nyateƒee, nye ŋutɔ mekpɔ Satana wòge tso dziƒo abe dzikedzo ene!
He said to them, "I saw Satan having fallen like lightning from heaven.
19 Mena ŋusẽ mi be miaɖu Futɔ la ƒe ŋusẽwo katã dzi, eye be miazɔ le dawo kple ahɔ̃wo me anye avuzi le wo dzi. Ke nu vevi aɖeke mawɔ mi o.
Look, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing will in any way hurt you.
20 Gake migakpɔ dzidzɔ be gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃wo ɖo to mi o. Ke boŋ midzɔ dzi be woŋlɔ miaƒe ŋkɔwo ɖe dziƒonɔlawo dome.”
Nevertheless, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven."
21 Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe yɔ eƒe dzi me fũu kple dzidzɔ blibo, eye wògblɔ be, “Mekafu wò, O Fofo, dzi kple anyigba ƒe Aƒetɔ, be nèɣla nu siawo ɖa tso xexe sia me nunyala gãwo gbɔ, eye nèɖee fia ame siwo xɔ dziwò se abe ɖeviwo ene. Nyateƒe, Fofo, akpe na wò, elabena aleae nèdi be wòanɔ.
In that same hour he rejoiced in the Ruach ha-Kodesh, and said, "I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight."
22 Fofonye tsɔ nuwo katã de asi nam, eye ame aɖeke menya Vi la o, negbe Fofo la ko, eye ame aɖeke hã menya Fofo la o, negbe Vi la kple ame siwo wòlɔ̃ ɖe eɖokui fia la ko.”
"All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whomever the Son desires to reveal him."
23 Azɔ etrɔ ɖe nusrɔ̃la wuieveawo ŋu, eye wògblɔ na wo dzaa be, “Woayra ŋku siwo le nu siwo kpɔm miele la kpɔm.
Turning to the talmidim, he said privately, "Blessed are the eyes which see the things that you see,
24 Nyagblɔɖilawo kple fia siwo nɔ anyi tsã la di vevie be yewoanɔ anyi le ŋkeke siawo me, eye yewoakpɔ nu siwo kpɔm miele, eye yewoase nya siwo sem miele, gake womete ŋui o!”
for I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which you see, and did not see them, and to hear the things which you hear, and did not hear them."
25 Gbe ɖeka sefiala aɖe si nya Mose ƒe seawo nyuie ŋutɔ la va be yeado Yesu ƒe nyateƒetɔnyenye kpɔ. Ebiae be, “Nufiala, nu kae mawɔ be manyi agbe mavɔ dome mahã?” (aiōnios g166)
And look, a certain Law scholar stood up and tested him, saying, "Teacher, what must I do to inherit everlasting life?" (aiōnios g166)
26 Yesu ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Aleke Mose ƒe sea gblɔ tso nu sia ŋuti?”
He said to him, "What is written in the Law? How do you read it?"
27 Eɖo eŋu be, “Mose ƒe se la gblɔ be, ‘Lɔ̃ Aƒetɔ wò Mawu la kple wò dzi kple luʋɔ blibo la kple wò susu kple wò ŋusẽ katã hã, eye nàlɔ̃ hawòvi abe wò ŋutɔ ɖokuiwò ene.’”
He answered, "You are to love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself."
28 Yesu gblɔ nɛ be, “Èɖo eŋu nyuie ŋutɔ, heyi, eye nàwɔ esiawo katã, ekema agbe mavɔ la asu asiwò!”
He said to him, "You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live."
29 Ŋutsu sia di be yeatso afia na ye ɖokui, elabena eya ŋutɔ melɔ̃a ame sia ame o, eya ta wòbia Yesu be, “Ame kae nye hanyevi?”
But he, desiring to justify himself, asked Yeshua, "Who is my neighbor?"
30 Yesu ɖo biabia sia ŋu nɛ kple lododo sia be, “Ŋutsu aɖe si nɔ mɔ zɔm tso Yerusalem yina ɖe Yeriko la va ge ɖe adzodalawo si me. Adzodalawo vuvu awu le eŋu, ƒoe vevie, eye wògblẽe ɖe mɔa to wòku afã kple afã.
Yeshua answered, "A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead.
31 Dzɔgbenyuitɔe la, Yudatɔwo ƒe nunɔla aɖe va to afi ma yina, esi wòkpɔ amea le mɔa to la, edze to eŋu yi ɖato mɔa ƒe akpa evelia, eye wòdzo le egbɔ.
By chance a certain cohen was going down that way. When he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
32 Levitɔ aɖe si nye ame siwo naa kpekpeɖeŋu le gbedoxɔ me la dometɔ aɖe hã va kpɔ amea wòmlɔ mɔa to, gake eya hã tso eme dzo.
In the same way a Levite also, when he came to the place, and saw him, passed by on the other side.
33 Gake Samariatɔ, ame siwo womebuna ɖe naneke me o hã va yina, eye esi wòkpɔ amea la, eƒe nu wɔ nublanui nɛ ŋutɔ.
But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion,
34 Etɔ, dze klo ɖe egbɔ, eye wòklɔ eƒe abiawo hetsɔ ami kple wain ɖo wo me hebla abiawo. Emegbe ekɔe da ɖe eƒe tedzi dzi, eye wòkplɔe ɖɔɖɔɖɔ va ɖo amedzrodzeƒe aɖe, eye wònɔ egbɔ zã bliboa.
came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. He set him on his own animal, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
35 Esi ŋu ke la, Samariatɔ la tsɔ ga home si hiã la na amedzrodzeƒedzikpɔla be wòatsɔ akpɔ amea dzii. Egblɔ kpe ɖe eŋu be, ‘Nenye be nu si miegblẽ ɖe eta sɔ gbɔ wu ga home si metsɔ na mi la, mava xe fea mamlɛa nenye be megatrɔ va afii.’”
On the next day, he took out two denarii, and gave them to the host, and said to him, 'Take care of him. Whatever you spend beyond that, I will repay you when I return.'
36 Yesu bia agbalẽfiala la azɔ be, “Le ame etɔ̃ siawo dome ɖe, kae nèbu be enye havi na ame si dze adzodalawo si me?”
Now which of these three do you think seemed to be a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?"
37 Ŋutsu la ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Ame si kpɔ nublanui nɛ lae nye ehavi.” Yesu gblɔ nɛ be, “Eɖo eŋu nyuie, heyi, eye wò hã nawɔ nenema.”
He said, "He who showed mercy on him." Then Yeshua said to him, "Go and do likewise."
38 Yesu kple eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo nɔ woƒe mɔzɔzɔ la dzi ɖo ta Yerusalem, eye wova ɖo kɔƒe aɖe me. Nyɔnu aɖe si woyɔna be Marta la xɔ wo ɖe eƒe aƒe me.
It happened as they went on their way, he entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha received him.
39 Marta nɔvi Maria va nɔ Aƒetɔ la ƒe afɔ nu le anyigba nɔ eƒe nyawo sem.
She had a sister called Miriam, who also sat at the Lord's feet, and heard his word.
40 Ke Marta ya tsi dzodzodzoe nɔ nu ɖam na Yesu. Sẽe la, Marta te ɖe Yesu ŋu, eye wògblɔ nɛ be, “Aƒetɔ mèkpɔe be medze be nɔvinye nanɔ anyi ɖe afi sia, eye nye ɖeka manɔ dɔawo katã wɔm oa? Gblɔ nɛ be neva kpe ɖe ŋunye.”
But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she came up to him, and said, "Lord, do you not care that my sister left me to serve alone? Ask her therefore to help me."
41 Gake Aƒetɔ la ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “O, Marta, Marta, èle agbagba dzem le fu ɖem na ɖokuiwò le nu geɖewo ŋuti.
But the Lord answered and said to her, "Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things,
42 Ke nu ɖeka koe le vevie, eyae nye nu si Maria tia, eya womele exɔ ge le esi o.”
but one thing is needed. Miriam has chosen the good part, which will not be taken away from her."
