1And it came to pass, on one of the days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and preaching the gospel, there came upon him the chief priests and the scribes with the elders;
1 Benn bés Yeesu doon jàngal nit ña ca kër Yàlla ga, di leen yégal xebaar bu baax bi. Saraxalekat yu mag ya ak xutbakat ya ak njiit ya ñëw ne ko:
2and they spake, saying unto him, Tell us: By what authority doest thou these things? or who is he that gave thee this authority?
2 «Wax nu ci ban sañ-sañ ngay defe yëf yii, walla kan moo la may boobu sañ-sañ.»
3And he answered and said unto them, I also will ask you a question; and tell me:
3 Yeesu tontu leen ne: «Man itam dinaa leen laaj lenn: wax leen ma,
4The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men?
4 la Yaxya daan def, di sóob nit ñi ci ndox, fu mu ko jële, ci Yàlla walla ci nit ñi?»
5And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why did ye not believe him?
5 Ñu waxtaan ci seen biir naan: «Bu nu nee: “Ci Yàlla,” dina laaj: “Lu tax gëmuleen ko kon?”
6But if we shall say, From men; all the people will stone us: for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.
6 Te bu nu nee: “Ci nit ñi,” mbooloo mépp dinañu nu sànni ay xeer, ndaxte gëm nañu ne Yaxya yonent la woon.»
7And they answered, that they knew not whence [it was].
7 Noonu ñu tontu ne, xamuñu fu mu ko jële.
8And Jesus said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.
8 Yeesu ne leen: «Kon man itam duma leen wax ci ban sañ-sañ laay defe yëf yii.»
9And he began to speak unto the people this parable: A man planted a vineyard, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into another country for a long time.
9 Noonu Yeesu daldi wax nit ña léeb wii: «Amoon na nit ku jëmbët toolu réseñ, batale ko ay beykat, dem tukki tukki bu yàgg.
10And at the season he sent unto the husbandmen a servant, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat him, and sent him away empty.
10 Bi tool bi ñoree nag, mu yónni surga ci ñoom, ngir jot wàllam ci meññeef gi. Waaye beykat yi dóor ko ay yar, dàq ko, mu dellu ak loxoy neen.
11And he sent yet another servant: and him also they beat, and handled him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
11 Mu yónniwaat beneen surga, ñu dóor ko moom itam, toroxal ko, dàq ko, mu dellu ak loxoy neen.
12And he sent yet a third: and him also they wounded, and cast him forth.
12 Mu yónneeti ñetteelu surga, ñu gaañ ko, dàq ko.
13And the lord of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son; it may be they will reverence him.
13 «Boroom tool ba daldi ne: “Nan laay def nag? Dinaa yónni sama doom, sama reeni xol. Xëy na ñu weg ko, moom.”
14But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned one with another, saying, This is the heir; let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.
14 Waaye bi beykat yi gisee doom ji, ñu ne ci seen biir: “Kii moo war a donn tool bi; nan ko rey, moom ndono li.”
15And they cast him forth out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do unto them?
15 Ñu génne ko tool bi nag, rey ko.» Noonu Yeesu laaj leen: «Nu leen boroom tool bi di def, nag?
16He will come and destroy these husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto others. And when they heard it, they said, God forbid.
16 Xanaa ñëw, rey beykat yooyu, dénk tool ba ñeneen.» Bi Yeesu waxee loolu, nit ña ne ko: «Yàlla tere!»
17But he looked upon them, and said, What then is this that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the head of the corner?
17 Waaye Yeesu ne leen jàkk, daldi ne: «Kon nag lu baat yii ci Mbind mi di tekki:“Doj wa tabaxkat ya sànni,mujj na di doju koñ.”
18Every one that falleth on that stone shall be broken to pieces; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will scatter him as dust.
18 Képp ku dal ci doj woowu, dammtoo, te ku mu dal ci sa kaw, rajaxe la.»
19And the scribes and the chief priests sought to lay hands on him in that very hour; and they feared the people: for they perceived that he spake this parable against them.
19 Xutbakat ya ak saraxalekat yu mag ya ñu ngi doon wut a jàpp Yeesu ca taxawaay ba, ndaxte xam nañu ne, ñoo tax mu wax léeb woowu. Waaye ragal nañu mbooloo ma.
20And they watched him, and sent forth spies, who feigned themselves to be righteous, that they might take hold of his speech, so as to deliver him up to the rule and to the authority of the governor.
20 Noonu ñu koy yeeru, daldi yónni ay nit ñu mbubboo njub, sas leen ñu fexe koo jàpp ci ay waxam, ngir jébbal ko boroom réew, ma yor kilifteef ak sañ-sañ.
21And they asked him, saying, Teacher, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, and acceptest not the person [of any], but of a truth teachest the way of God:
21 Ñu daldi ñëw ci Yeesu ne ko: «Kilifa gi, xam nanu ne li ngay wax te di ko jàngale lu jub la. Amuloo parlàqu, waaye dangay xamle yoonu Yàlla ci bu wóor.
22Is it lawful for us to give tribute unto Caesar, or not?
22 Wax nu, ndax jaadu na, nu fey buur bi Sesaar galag walla déet.»
23But he perceived their craftiness, and said unto them,
23 Waaye Yeesu xam na seen pexe ne leen:
24Show me a denarius. Whose image and superscription hath it? And they said, Caesar's.
24 «Wonleen ma posetu denariyon. Kan lañu ci def nataalam ak turam?» Ñu tontu ko: «Sesaar.»
25And he said unto them, Then render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's.
25 Noonu mu ne leen: «Joxleen nag Sesaar li Sesaar moom, te jox Yàlla li Yàlla moom.»
26And they were not able to take hold of the saying before the people: and they marvelled at his answer, and held their peace.
26 Noonu mënuñu ko woon a jàpp ciy waxam ci kanamu mbooloo ma; ñu waaru ci tontoom, ba wedam.
27And there came to him certain of the Sadducees, they that say that there is no resurrection;
27 Noonu ay nit, ñu bokk ci Sadusen yi, ñëw ci moom. Sadusen yi nag ñoom weddi nañu ndekkite li. Noonu ñu laaj ko ne:
28and they asked him, saying, Teacher, Moses wrote unto us, that if a man's brother die, having a wife, and he be childless, his brother should take the wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.
28 «Kilifa gi, Musaa bindal na nu ne, ku magam faatu te bàyyiwul doom ak jabaram, kooku war na donn jigéen ji, ba yékkati giiru magam.
29There were therefore seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and died childless;
29 Amoon na fi nag juróom-ñaari góor ñu bokk ndey ak baay. Taaw ba takk jabar, faatu, te bàyyiwul doom.
30and the second:
30 Ñaareel ba takk jigéen ja, def noonu; ak ñetteel ba, ba juróom-ñaar ñépp faatu te bàyyiwuñu doom.
31and the third took her; and likewise the seven also left no children, and died.
32 Gannaaw ga nag jigéen ja it faatu.
32Afterward the woman also died.
33 Ci ndekkite li nag, kan ci ñoom moo war a donn jigéen ja, fekk ku nekk ci juróom-ñaar ñi mas na koo takk?»
33In the resurrection therefore whose wife of them shall she be? for the seven had her to wife.
34 Yeesu tontu leen ne: «Ci àddina sii, góor ñi ak jigéen ñi dañuy séy.
34And Jesus said unto them, The sons of this world marry, and are given in marriage:
35 Waaye ña ñu àtte ne, yeyoo nañoo bokk ci dundu ëllëg ak ci ndekkite li, kenn du am jabar, kenn du am jëkkër.
35but they that are accounted worthy to attain to that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:
36 Dafa fekk ne mënatuñoo dee, ndaxte dañuy mel ni malaaka yi. Ay doomi Yàlla lañu ndaxte doomi ndekkite lañu.
36for neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.
37 Te Musaa sax wone na ne, néew yi dinañu dekki, ci saarum ngarab si. Foofa Musaa wooye na fa Boroom bi: “Yàllay Ibraayma, Yàllay Isaaxa, di Yàllay Yanqóoba.”
37But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed, in [the place concerning] the Bush, when he calleth the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.
38 Kon nag nekkul Yàllay ñi dee waaye Yàllay ñiy dund la, ndaxte Yàllaa tax ñépp di dund.»
38Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living: for all live unto him.
39 Ci kaw loolu ay xutbakat ne ko: «Li nga wax dëgg la, kilifa gi!»
39And certain of the scribes answering said, Teacher, thou hast well said.
40 Ndaxte kenn ci ñoom ñemeetu koo laaj dara.
40For they durst not any more ask him any question.
41 Noonu Yeesu ne leen: «Lu tax nit ñi di wax ne, Almasi bi mooy sëtu Daawuda?
41And he said unto them, How say they that the Christ is David's son?
42 Ndaxte Daawuda moom ci boppam moo ne ci Sabóor:“Boroom bi nee na sama Boroom:‘Toogal ci sama ndeyjoor,
42For David himself saith in the book of Psalms, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
43 ba kera may daaneelsay noon ci sa kanam.’ ”
43Till I make thine enemies the footstool of thy feet.
44 Gannaaw Daawuda nag wooye na ko “Boroom bi,” nu muy nekke sëtam?»
44David therefore calleth him Lord, and how is he his son?
45 Bi ko nit ña fa nekkoon ñépp doon déglu, Yeesu ne ay taalibeem:
45And in the hearing of all the people he said unto his disciples,
46 «Moytuleen xutbakat yi; dañoo bëgg di doxantu, sol ay mbubb yu réy, te ñépp di leen nuyoo ñaari loxo ci pénc mi. Ci jàngu yi, toogu yu féete kanam lañuy wut, te toogu yu yiw lañuy taamu ci reeri xew yi.
46Beware of the scribes, who desire to walk in long robes, and love salutations in the marketplaces, and chief seats in the synagogues, and chief places at feasts;
47 Ñu ngi lekk alalu jigéen ñi seen jëkkër faatu, di ñaan Yàlla ay ñaani ngistal yu gudd. Seen mbugal dina gën a tar.»
47who devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayers: these shall receive greater condemnation.
