Luka 20
1 Dayenli, ke jesu den tundi bi niba ku jaanddiegu cancanli ki muandi ba li laabamanli, ke ku jaanddiegu liiga yaaba cua yeni bi yikodanba yeni u dogu yudanba,
And it came to pass on one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and preaching the good news, the chief priests and the scholars with the elders stood near.
2 ke bi buali Jesu ya buali ne: ... Maadi ti, a kubi ŋmaa yiko ki tuuni, lan yaa ka, ŋma n teni li yiko?
And they spoke, saying to him, Tell us, by what authority are thou doing these things? Or who is he who gave thee this authority?
3 Jesu maadi: ... N mɔ pia i buali ke bi buali yi, ŋmiani man nni:
And having answered, he said to them, I also will ask you one word, and ye tell me.
4 Jan den kubi ŋmaa yiko i, ki wuu bi niba U Tienu ñima? Li den tie U Tienu yiko bii bi niba yiko i?
The immersion of John, was it from heaven or from men?
5 Ke bi ji buni bulni bi siiga: Ti ya maadi: “Ke U Tienu yiko” o ba buali ti: “Be cedi ke i den ki dugi o po”?
And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we should say, From heaven, he will say, Why did ye not believe him?
6 Ama ti ya ŋmiani: “Ke bi niba”, ku niwulgu ne ba luudi ti a tana ki kpa ti, kelima bi niba ne kuli dugi ke Jan bo tie U Tienu tondo i.
But if we say, From men, all the people will stone us, for they are convinced John is a prophet.
7 Ke bi maadi ke bi ki bani Jan n bo kubi yua yiko ki tuuni.
And they replied not to know from where.
8 ... Jesu ŋmiani ba, ke o mɔ ki bani wan kubi yua ya yiko ki tuuni.
And Jesus said to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.
9 Ke o pua bi niba ya makpanjama ne: ... Ja bá den ŋuu ku damɔngu diidi, ki ggni bi niba ki gedi naani n fagi ki ba waagi.
And he began to speak this parable to the people. A man planted a vineyard, and leased it to farmers, and went abroad for a considerable time.
10 Mi cuama yogu ke o sɔni o tuonsɔnlo, ke wan gedi ki gaa bu kpaabu ligi, ke kpaguula pua ki beli o, baa teni o lbá.
And at the season he sent a bondman to the farmers, so that they would give him from the fruit of the vineyard. But having beaten him, the farmers sent him away empty.
11 Ke o bondaano gɔ sɔni tuonsɔntɔlo. Ke bi gɔ pua o, ki beli o, baa teni o lbá.
And he proceeded to send another bondman. And they, having beaten and shamefully treated, sent him also away empty.
12 Canbáa gɔ sɔni tuonsɔntɔlo bonbta po. Ke bi pua ki duoli o mɔ ki beli o.
And he proceeded to send a third. And they also having wounded this man, cast him out.
13 Ke o kpadaano maadi: N tieni ledi? N ba sɔni n biga yaaga ke n ŋanbi ki bua ga. Bi ba fidi ki cɔlni wani.
And the lord of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. Perhaps they will be made ashamed after seeing this man.
14 A tuonsɔnla n lá ga ya yogu, ke bi juogi bi ŋmiali nni, ki maadi: “Yua n ti ba di li faali n yeni. Tin kpa o man, ki diedi li faali.”
But when the farmers saw him, they deliberated among themselves, saying, This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, so that the inheritance may become ours.
15 Ke bi cuo o ki fili o, ki ñani o bu kpaabu nni, ki kpa o. O kpadaano ba tieni a tuonsɔnla yeni ledi?
And having cast him outside of the vineyard, they killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
16 O ba gedi ki biani a tuonsɔnla yeni, ki taa bu kpaabu ki guuni nitɔba. Li maama po ke bi maadi: “U Tieni n wuoni mani”.
He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others. And having heard it, they said, May it not happen!
17 Ke Jesu nɔnli ba suoo ki maadi: “I gbia U Tienu lanbona yia diani li tili nni ne ledi? Ya tanli ke a tanmaala bo yie ki luni yeni, laa tanli n ti guani ki tua ku diegu fiagli tanjali.
But having looked upon them, he said, What then is this that is written, The stone that those who build rejected, this became the head of the corner?
18 Yua n li baa li tanli po, o ba kɔni kɔni. Li tanli ya baa yua ya po mɔ, li nandi o i yomi yomi.
Every man who falls on that stone will be broken, but on whomever it may fall, it will grind him to dust.
19 Ke U Tienu maama tundkaaba yeni bi salyidkacianba bandi ke li makpanjama nua bani, ke bi ji lingi ke ban cuo Jesu li yogu mɔno, ki jie bi niba.
And the chief priests and the scholars sought to throw hands on him in the same hour. And they were afraid, for they knew that he spoke this parable against them.
20 Li po ke bi kpaagi Jesu, ki sɔni bi niba ke bi yini bi bá nimɔnba. Bi bo ba lá i jalgi Jesu maama nni. Yeni, bi bo ba fidi ki cuo o, ki kubni o Romi bado yiko yiko yeni o yudandi nni.
And having watched him, they sent forth insidious men pretending themselves to be righteous, so that they might take hold of his word, in order to deliver him up to the rule and to the authority of the governor.
21 Lani ke bi niba yeni ji nagni o: ... Canbáa, ti bani ke a maadi i mɔmɔni, ki gɔ tundi bi niba lan buali maama. A ki jie bi yikodanba, ama a wangi bi niba U Tienu sanu yeni mɔni.
And they questioned him, saying, Teacher, we know that thou speak and teach rightly, and thou do not accept a personage, but teach the way of God in truth,
22 To, maadi ti, li buali ke tin ya pa Sesari ti patendi (lonpo) bii laa cabi i?
Is it permitted for us to give tribute to Caesar or not?
23 Jesu bani bi janbi maama, ki ŋmiani ba:
But having perceived their craftiness, he said to them, Why do ye try me?
24 ... Waani nni man bu lugbu dibayenli! ŋma ya nannangu yeni ŋma ya yeli n ye li po? ... Ke bi niba jiini ke Sesari.
Display to me a denarius. Whose image and inscription has it? And having answered, they said, Caesar's.
25 ... To! ke o maadi ba, teni man Sesari yaala n tie Sesari yaali, ki teni U Tienu yaala n tie U Tienu yaala.
And he said to them, Then render the things of Caesar to Caesar, and the things of God to God.
26 Bi bo ki fidi ki jalgi Jesu o maama nni bi niba siiga. Ke o ŋmiani bo lidi ba, ke bi bo luo ban ba maadi yaala.
And they were unable to lay hold of his word before the people. And having marveled at his answer, they were silent.
27 Sadusehannba, ban yaaba n bo ki tuo ke bi kpienba ti ba fii ku kaagu nni, bi siiga ke bi tɔba nagni Jesu, ki buali o ya buali ne:
And some of the Sadducees having approached, those who say there is no resurrection, they questioned him,
28 ... Canbáa, Moyisi diani nni o bo diani yiko ne ki teni ti: Li ya tie ke o nulo kuani o pua, ki kpe ki ki pia biga, o ninjua ń taa o pakuali ki mali o a bila.
saying, Teacher, Moses wrote to us, if any brother dies, having a wife, and this man dies childless, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.
29 To, jablile n den ye ki tie kpiiba, o ciamo po kuani o pua, ki kpe kaa pia biga.
There were therefore seven brothers. And the first having taken a wife, died childless.
30 Bilie po yua yeni bita po yua yeni yaaba n sieni taa li pua,
And the second took the woman, and this man died childless.
31 Ke bi kuli kpe kaa pia biga”
And the third likewise took her, and likewise also the seven; they left behind no children, and died.
32 O pua yeni mɔ ti yuandi ki kpe.
And last of all the woman also died.
33 To, bi kpienba n ba fii ya daali ku kaagu nni, ŋma n ji ba diedi o pua i? kelima bi kuli kuani o.
In the resurrection therefore whose wife of them does she become? For the seven had her as wife.
34 Jesu ŋmiani ba: ... Tin dá ye ya ŋanduna ne nni, bi jaba kuandi bi puoba ki bi puoba kuni bi jaba. (aiōn g165)
And having answered, Jesus said to them, The sons of this age marry, and are given in marriage, (aiōn g165)
35 Ama yaaba ke U Tienu diidi ki sua ke bi ŋani ki dagdi yeni ban fii ku kaagu nni ki kua li ŋandunpanli nni wan kan kuani bi puoba ki gɔ kan kuni bi jaba. (aiōn g165)
but those who are considered worthy to attain to that age, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
36 Bi kan fidi ki kpe, kelima bi baa tie nani Menekinba yeni, ki tie U Tienu bila, kelima bi ba fii bi kpienba siiga.
For neither can they die any more, for they are like the agents, and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
37 Ke bi kpinba n fii ku kaagu nni, Moyisi mɔno, bo diani li ya yogu ke o lá ku tuntuugu co u muu: Lan wan ii, o yeli n tie yonbdaano Abrahami Tienu, Isaaki Tienu yeni Jakɔbi Tienu.
But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the Bush when he calls the Lord, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
38 Ama, U Tienu ki tie bi kpienba Tienu ka, ama fuodba Tienu; lan wan ii, o ya po, li tie mɔmɔni ke yaajanba ta yeni fo.
Now he is not God of the dead, but of the living, for all live to him.
39 Li po, a yikobanda gaa mi maama ki maadi: ... Canbáa, a ŋanbi ki ŋmiani li po.
And some of the scholars having answered, they said, Teacher, thou said well.
40 Kelima, bi ji bo jie yeni ban buali i buali.
For they no longer dared to question him anything.
41 Ke Jesu mɔ ji buali ba: ... Li tieni ledi ke bi maadi ke O Tondo ba ña Dafiidi yaabila siiga?
And he said to them, How do they say the Christ is David's son?
42 Kelima Dafiidi mɔno maadi I Yani tili nni: Yonbdaano maadi n Yonbdaano: Cua ki kali n jienu,
Even David himself says in the book of Psalms, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand,
43 Ya caa yeni ya yogu ke n ba cedi a yibalinba ń tua a taaŋmaakaanu.
until I will place thine enemies a footstool of thy feet.
44 Dafiidi yini U Tienu Tondo ke o Yonbdaano: Li ba tieni ledi i o tondo yeni n ya tie o yaabili.
David therefore calls him Lord, and how is he his son?
45 Ke ku niwulgu den cengi o, ke omaadi o ŋɔdkaaba:
And while all the people were listening, he said to his disciples,
46 ... Diidi U Tienu yikobanda yaaba n bua a bogda tiadi lama, ki ŋanbi ki bua ku niwulgu nni, ti jaanddiedi nni yeni ti wondi nni ban ya kaa liiga.
Beware of the scholars, who desire to walk around in long robes, and love greetings in the marketplaces, and chief seats in the synagogues, and places of honor at the feasts,
47 Bi fiedi a pakuana ligi i, ki nan yen sedi ki jaandi lan waagi nani bi tie bi nimɔnba yeni. Bi ya tubŋmaglu n ti baa bia.
who devour widows' houses, and in pretence make long prayers. These will receive greater damnation.
