Uluka 14
1 Uru uwui wa Asabar, ma ribe akura ure unu, udan anyimo anu bezi urusa barki are imumare, anu wa zin unu wuza ume aje.
And it came to pass, on his going into the house of a certain one of the chiefs of the Pharisees, on a sabbath, to eat bread, that they were watching him,
2 Wa iri uye aje aweme unu ukoni usum utobi.
and lo, there was a certain dropsical man before him;
3 Yeso ma iki anu iso utize nan anu ubezi Urusa, “Ya wuna uri unu wuli Asabar a human unu nu, nani mmh?”
and Jesus answering spake to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, 'Is it lawful on the sabbath-day to heal?'
4 Ba wa ingara tik, ba Yeso ma mekime, ma human in me, ma ceki me ma dusa.
and they were silent, and having taken hold of [him], he healed him, and let [him] go;
5 Bama gun we, “Aveni anyimo ashime ingima zin in ku zenki nani kubarka ku rizi uwa rono Asabar, mada suso kuni debe-debe ba?”
and answering them he said, 'Of which of you shall an ass or ox fall into a pit, and he will not immediately draw it up on the sabbath-day?'
6 Da wa kabirka me imum ba.
and they were not able to answer him again unto these things.
7 Sa Yeso ma ira cundesa abuku we u aye unigora wa zanka ti hira ti cukuno ti huma, ba ma nyawe ure ubata ma gusin we.
And he spake a simile unto those called, marking how they were choosing out the first couches, saying unto them,
8 Ingi uye ma beze we nigora na anya, kati uka cukuno ukwanko a huma, barki nani una hira me ma rani sa ma teki we.
'When thou mayest be called by any one to marriage-feasts, thou mayest not recline on the first couch, lest a more honourable than thou may have been called by him,
9 Ingi desa ma bezi shi nigora me maaye, madi gun hu, 'nya unu ugino me ahira sa u cikini' Udi ku hiri in mu ime uka cukuno ahira an desa da wa bikiwe ba.
and he who did call thee and him having come shall say to thee, Give to this one place, and then thou mayest begin with shame to occupy the last place.
10 Ingi a bezi we nigora, uha uka cukuno ahira sa da azi ananuba, barki nigi desa ma beziu we nigora me ma aye, mada ke magunhu, 'Uruni' nyene aba ucukuno ni, abine ani uduku kem u nyezeni aje adesa in ciki nan we ahira anigora me.
'But, when thou mayest be called, having gone on, recline in the last place, that when he who called thee may come, he may say to thee, Friend, come up higher; then thou shalt have glory before those reclining with thee;
11 Vat desa ma nyeze nice numeme, adi tuzo me, desa ma tuzo nice numeme adi nyezeme.
because every one who is exalting himself shall be humbled, and he who is humbling himself shall be exalted.'
12 Yeso ma gun unu nume sa ma bezime, “Ingi udi bezi are Imumare inigora nani nigora, kati ubezi urom uwe, nani ami henu uwe, nani nikora nuwe, nani anu upuru uwe anu kem, kasi sa wada ke wa bezi hume, ya cukuno wa kurzo weni.
And he said also to him who did call him, 'When thou mayest make a dinner or a supper, be not calling thy friends, nor thy brethren, nor thy kindred, nor rich neighbours, lest they may also call thee again, and a recompense may come to thee;
13 Ingi udi titi nigorah u nyari anu dira, nan adesa wa ke wa wu ure uwunaba, nan anu zatu tibuna nan arubo.
but when thou mayest make a feast, be calling poor, maimed, lame, blind,
14 udi kem ure aje barki sa da wa zin unu nā u kurzo uweniba. Adi nyawe ure aje uwui u hira ana imumu i huma?”
and happy thou shalt be, because they have not to recompense thee, for it shall be recompensed to thee in the rising again of the righteous.'
15 Unu inde sama ciki nan na nanu sa Yeso ma kunna ani me, magun me, “Ure aje ucukuno ahira desa madi ri a kura Asere”.
And one of those reclining with him, having heard these things, said to him, 'Happy [is] he who shall eat bread in the reign of God;'
16 Yeso magun me, “Ure unu mani ma bezi nigora ni dang ma bezizi anu gbardang.
and he said to him, 'A certain man made a great supper, and called many,
17 Uganiya unigora u ē, ma tumi urere umeme maka guna an desa ma beziziwe, “Ayeni, amu mara ubara adadu Vat.
and he sent his servant at the hour of the supper to say to those having been called, Be coming, because now are all things ready.
18 Vat uwe, wa tubi u boo imum igebe sa idi kartiwe u aye ahira nigora me. Unu utuba magun me, “In zi unu ruu, indi ha inka ira, cekum in ha.
'And they began with one consent all to excuse themselves: The first said to him, A field I bought, and I have need to go forth and see it; I beg of thee, have me excused.
19 Uye magu, “Makwa inaa ya fara inu cibi in nyara in ka bata ini, Cekum in ha.
'And another said, Five yoke of oxen I bought, and I go on to prove them; I beg of thee, have me excused:
20 Uye magu, 'ma wuza a nya, barki anime inda kem u ayeba.
and another said, A wife I married, and because of this I am not able to come.
21 Sa Urere ma ze ma buki Sakurame vat imum igino me, sakura ma kuna iriba, magun unu rere umeme, hana debe utarsi tina tini pin nan ti hira ti cukuzino, u em inanu uzatu nikara, nan an desa wada ke wa wuzi ire imum ba, arubo nan anu zatu tibuna'
'And that servant having come, told to his lord these things, then the master of the house, having been angry, said to his servant, Go forth quickly to the broad places and lanes of the city, and the poor, and maimed, and lame, and blind, bring in hither.
22 Urere magu, Sakura, Imum me sa wa buka amara, anime ahira arani.
'And the servant said, Sir, it hath been done as thou didst command, and still there is room.
23 Sakura magu urere me, hana, ka tarsa tinaa, nan ti hira ti cukuzono ta amani pin me, utisam anu, barki akura am a myinca.
'And the lord said unto the servant, Go forth to the ways and hedges, and constrain to come in, that my house may be filled;
24 In zinu booshi, an desa ma bezizi we unu tuba sa madi donkino nigora num.
for I say to you, that none of those men who have been called shall taste of my supper.'
25 Abini me, nigora nanu wazin in tanu nan me, ma gamirka magu,
And there were going on with him great multitudes, and having turned, he said unto them,
26 Vat desa madi ē ahira am in daki ma game acu me, nan ka ino me, nan une me, nan ahana me, nan anu henu me ahana aroma nan nane, mada ke ma cukuno unutarsa um ba.
'If any one doth come unto me, and doth not hate his own father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brothers, and sisters, and yet even his own life, he is not able to be my disciple;
27 Vat desa dama zika uzito ume matarsam ba. Mada ke macukuno unutarsa umba.
and whoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, is not able to be my disciple.
28 Aveni anyimo ashime sa ma nyara ubara akura, mada cukuno me urso imum igebe sa madi hu, nani mazini ikirfi me sa idi bari me umara ukatuma me?
'For who of you, willing to build a tower, doth not first, having sat down, count the expence, whether he have the things for completing?
29 Kat i cukuno sa ma mara unuka udenge me ugame umara, vat adesa wa hira me wa tubi me nibasa.
lest that he having laid a foundation, and not being able to finish, all who are beholding may begin to mock him,
30 Wa gusi, unu ugemani matubi aso da ma masizikime umasirka me.
saying — This man began to build, and was not able to finish.
31 Nani uya ugomo mani, ingi ma haza nikono nan ure ugomo, maki da cukuno ma bati tizze ma iri me unami madubu akure ukirau mada ke maka wuza ukara nan ugomo sa ma zin nanu anikara madubu akure are.
'Or what king going on to engage with another king in war, doth not, having sat down, first consult if he be able with ten thousand to meet him who with twenty thousand is coming against him?
32 Ingi mada rusa ba, dati a unigino mada pit, na ma tumi aka iko una ticukun tihuma.
and if not so — he being yet a long way off — having sent an embassy, he doth ask the things for peace.
33 Ane ani, ba uye anyimo ashi desa dama ceki imum be sa mazini ba, mada ke ma cukuno unu tarsa um.
'So, then, every one of you who doth not take leave of all that he himself hath, is not able to be my disciple.
34 Muhu imum ini ihuma, ingi muhu curnome, in nyanini adi barka munini?
'The salt [is] good, but if the salt doth become tasteless, with what shall it be seasoned?
35 Muzome in ire imumuwaza adizi, nani mu cukuno uteki. Senke akwankoni cas. De sa mazi in titui ti kuna na ma kunna.
neither for land nor for manure is it fit — they cast it without. He who is having ears to hear — let him hear.'
