¹Now it came to pass on a sabbath, that he was going through the grainfields; and his disciples plucked the ears, and did eat, rubbing them in their hands.

¹ Amoon na benn bésu noflaay Yeesu di dem, jaar ci ay tool yu ñor. Taalibeem ya di fàq ay cëgg, di leen boxom ci seeni loxo tey lekk.

²But certain of the Pharisees said, Why do ye that which it is not lawful to do on the sabbath day?

² Am ay Farisen yu ne: «Lu tax ngeen di def lu jaaduwul ci bésu noflaay bi?»

³And Jesus answering them said, Have ye not read even this, what David did, when he was hungry, he, and they that were with him;

³ Yeesu tontu leen ne: «Ndax jànguleen la Daawuda defoon, ba mu xiifee, moom ak ña mu àndaloon?

⁴how he entered into the house of God, and took and ate the showbread, and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat save for the priests alone?

⁴ Xanaa yéguleen, ni mu dugge woon ca kër Yàlla ga, jël mburu, ya ñu jébbal Yàlla, lekk ca, jox ca ña mu àndaloon? Fekk jaaduwul kenn lekk ko, ku dul saraxalekat.»

⁵And he said unto them, The Son of man is lord of the sabbath.

⁵ Yeesu dellu ne leen: «Doomu nit ki mooy boroom bésu noflaay bi.»

⁶And it came to pass on another sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue and taught: and there was a man there, and his right hand was withered.

⁶ Beneen bésu noflaay, Yeesu dugg ci jàngu bi, di fa jàngale. Amoon na fa nit ku loxol ndeyjooram làggi.

⁷And the scribes and the Pharisees watched him, whether he would heal on the sabbath; that they might find how to accuse him.

⁷ Xutbakat yi ak Farisen yi ñu ngi ko doon xool, ba xam dina ko faj ci bésu noflaay bi, ngir ñu am lu ñu ko tuumaale.

⁸But he knew their thoughts; and he said to the man that had his hand withered, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stood forth.

⁸ Waaye Yeesu xam seen xalaat, daldi ne ku loxoom làggi: «Jógal taxaw ci kanamu ñépp.» Nit ka daldi jóg taxaw.

⁹And Jesus said unto them, I ask you, Is it lawful on the sabbath to do good, or to do harm? to save a life, or to destroy it?

⁹ Yeesu ne leen: «Ma laaj leen, lan moo jaadu, nu def ko bésu noflaay bi, lu baax mbaa lu bon; nu musal nit mbaa nu lor nit?»

¹⁰And he looked round about on them all, and said unto him, Stretch forth thy hand. And he did [so]: and his hand was restored.

¹⁰ Ci kaw loolu mu xool leen ñoom ñépp, ba noppi ne nit ka: «Tàllalal sa loxo.» Mu tàllal ko, loxoom daldi wér peŋŋ.

¹¹But they were filled with madness; and communed one with another what they might do to Jesus.

¹¹ Waaye nit ña mer ba fees, di rabat pexe yu jëm ca Yeesu.

¹²And it came to pass in these days, that he went out into the mountain to pray; and he continued all night in prayer to God.

¹² Ca bés yooya Yeesu yéeg ca tund wa ngir ñaan, mu fanaan fa, di ñaan ci Yàlla.

¹³And when it was day, he called his disciples; and he chose from them twelve, whom also he named apostles:

¹³ Bi bët setee, Yeesu woo taalibeem yi, tànn ci fukk ak ñaar, tudde leen ay ndawam:

¹⁴Simon, whom he also named Peter, and Andrew his brother, and James and John, and Philip and Bartholomew,

¹⁴ Simoŋ, mi Yeesu tudde Piyeer, ak Andare, mi bokk ak Piyeer ndey ak baay; Saag ak Yowaana, Filib ak Bartelemi,

¹⁵and Matthew and Thomas, and James [the son] of Alphaeus, and Simon who was called the Zealot,

¹⁵ Macë ak Tomaa, Saag doomu Alfe, ak Simoŋ mi bokk ci mbooloo, ma ñu tudde Ñi farlu ci moom seen réew;

¹⁶and Judas [the son] of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor;

¹⁶ Yudaa doomu Saag, ak Yudaa Iskariyo, mi mujj a wor.

¹⁷and he came down with them, and stood on a level place, and a great multitude of his disciples, and a great number of the people from all Judaea and Jerusalem, and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases;

¹⁷ Yeesu ànd ak ndaw ya, wàcc tund ya, daldi taxaw ca joor ga, fa mbooloom taalibe mu takku nekkoon. Amoon na fa it ay nit ñu bare ñu jóge ca réewu Yawut ya mépp ak ca dëkku Yerusalem ak dëkk yi nekk ca wetu géej ga, maanaam Tir ak Sidon.

¹⁸and they that were troubled with unclean spirits were healed.

¹⁸ Dañoo ñëw ngir déglu ko, te it ngir mu faj leen. Ñi rab jàpp it faju nañu.

¹⁹And all the multitude sought to touch him; for power came forth from him, and healed [them] all.

¹⁹ Ñépp a ngi ko doon wut a laal ndax doole jiy jóge ci moom, di faj ñépp.

²⁰And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed [are] ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.

²⁰ Yeesu xool ay taalibeem ne leen:«Yéen ñi sësul lu dul ci Yàlla, barkeel ngeen,ndaxte nguuru Yàlla, yéena ko yelloo.

²¹Blessed [are] ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed [are] ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.

²¹ Yéen ñi xiif léegi, barkeel ngeen,ndax dingeen regg.Yéen ñiy naqarlu léegi, barkeel ngeen,ndax dingeen ree.

²²Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you [from their company], and reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.

²² Barkeel ngeen, bu leen nit ñi bañee, di leen dàq ak a saaga, di sib seen tur ngir Doomu nit ki.

²³Rejoice in that day, and leap [for joy]: for behold, your reward is great in heaven; for in the same manner did their fathers unto the prophets.

²³ Bu boobaa bégleen te bànneexu, ndax seen yool dina réy ci laaxira. Ndaxte noonu la maami seeni bañ daan fitnaale yonent yi.

²⁴But woe unto you that are rich! for ye have received your consolation.

²⁴ Waaye nag yéen boroom alal yi, torox ngeen,ndaxte jot ngeen ba noppi seen bànneex.

²⁵Woe unto you, ye that are full now! for ye shall hunger. Woe [unto you], ye that laugh now! for ye shall mourn and weep.

²⁵ Yéen ñiy lekk ba suur léegi, torox ngeen,ndax ëllëg dingeen xiif.Yéen ñiy ree léegi, torox ngeen,ndax dingeen am aw naqar, ba jooy xàcc.

²⁶Woe [unto you], when all men shall speak well of you! for in the same manner did their fathers to the false prophets.

²⁶ Torox ngeen bu leen ñépp dee waxal lu baax, ndaxte noonu la seeni maam daan jëfe ak ña doon mbubboo yonent.

²⁷But I say unto you that hear, Love your enemies, do good to them that hate you,

²⁷ «Waaye maa ngi leen koy wax, yéen ñi may déglu, soppleen seeni bañaale tey defal lu baax ñi leen bañ.

²⁸bless them that curse you, pray for them that despitefully use you.

²⁸ Yéeneleen lu baax ñi leen di móolu, te ñaanal ñi leen di sonal.

²⁹To him that smiteth thee on the [one] cheek offer also the other; and from him that taketh away thy cloak withhold not thy coat also.

²⁹ Ku la talaata cib lex, jox ko ba ca des. Kuy nangu sa mbubb mu mag, bul téye sa turki.

³⁰Give to every one that asketh thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again.

³⁰ Képp ku la ñaan, may ko, te ku nangu say yëf, bu ko ko laaj.

³¹And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.

³¹ Defal-leen nit ñi li ngeen bëgg, ñu defal leen ko.

³²And if ye love them that love you, what thank have ye? for even sinners love those that love them.

³² «Su ngeen soppee ñi leen sopp, ban ngërëm ngeen ciy am? Ndaxte bàkkaarkat yi sax sopp nañu ñi leen sopp.

³³And if ye do good to them that do good to you, what thank have ye? for even sinners do the same.

³³ Te bu ngeen defalee lu baax ñi leen koy defal, ban ngërëm ngeen ciy am? Bàkkaarkat yi it dañuy def noonu.

³⁴And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? even sinners lend to sinners, to receive again as much.

³⁴ Te bu ngeen dee leble te yaakaar ci ndelloo, ban ngërëm ngeen ciy am? Bàkkaarkat yi it dañuy lebal seeni moroom, ngir ñu delloo leen ko.

³⁵But love your enemies, and do [them] good, and lend, never despairing; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be sons of the Most High: for he is kind toward the unthankful and evil.

³⁵ Waaye soppleen seeni noon, di leen defal lu baax, tey leble, bañ a yaakaar ñu delloo leen ko. Noonu seen yool dina mag te dingeen wone ne, yéenay doomi Aji Kawe ji, ndaxte Yàlla day wone mbaaxam ci ñu goreedi ñi ak ñu soxor ñi.

³⁶Be ye merciful, even as your Father is merciful.

³⁶ Nangeen am yërmande, ni seen Baay ame yërmande.

³⁷And judge not, and ye shall not be judged: and condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: release, and ye shall be released:

³⁷ «Buleen àtte seeni moroom ak ñaaw njort, te deesu leen àtte. Buleen daan kenn, te deesu leen daan. Baal-leen ñi ci des, te dinañu leen baal.

³⁸give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, shall they give into your bosom. For with what measure ye mete it shall be measured to you again.

³⁸ Mayeleen te dinañu leen may. Dinañu leen ëmbal natt bu baax bu ñu rokkas te yengal ko, mu fees bay tuuru. Ndaxte dees na leen nattal ak natt, bi ngeen di nattale.»

³⁹And he spake also a parable unto them, Can the blind guide the blind? shall they not both fall into a pit?

³⁹ Noonu Yeesu wax na leen beneen léeb ne leen: «Ndax gumba man na wommat moroomam? Mbaa duñu daanu ñoom ñaar ci kàmb?

⁴⁰The disciple is not above his teacher: but every one when he is perfected shall be as his teacher.

⁴⁰ Taalibe gënul kilifaam, waaye taalibe bu jàng ba wàcc, dina yem ak kilifaam demin.

⁴¹And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

⁴¹ «Lu tax ngay xool ñax gi ci sa bëtu mbokk, te gisuloo gànj gi ci sa bët yaw?

⁴²Or how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me cast out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote that is in thy brother's eye.

⁴² Nan nga man a waxe sa mbokk: “Sama xarit, may ma, ma dindil la ñax gi ci sa bët,” yaw mi gisul gànj gi nekk ci sa bët? Naaféq! Jëkkal a dindi gànj gi ci sa bët, te noonu dinga man a gis bu leer, ngir dindi ñax gi ci sa bëtu mbokk.

⁴³For there is no good tree that bringeth forth corrupt fruit; nor again a corrupt tree that bringeth forth good fruit.

⁴³ «Garab gu baax du meññ doom yu bon, te garab gu bon du meññ doom yu baax.

⁴⁴For each tree is known by its own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.

⁴⁴ Ndaxte garab, meññeefam lañu koy xàmmee. Deesul witte figg ci dédd, walla réseñ ci xaaxaam.

⁴⁵The good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and the evil [man] out of the evil [treasure] bringeth forth that which is evil: for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.

⁴⁵ Noonu nit ku baax, lu baax lay wax, ndax loolu la denc ci xolam, te nit ku bon, lu bon lay wax, ndaxte denc na lu bon ci xolam. Ndaxte gémmiñ, la fees xolam lay wax.

⁴⁶And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?

⁴⁶ «Lu tax ngeen may wooye “Boroom bi, Boroom bi,” te dungeen def li may wax?

⁴⁷Every one that cometh unto me, and heareth my words, and doeth them, I will show you to whom he is like:

⁴⁷ Képp ku ñëw ci man, di dégg samay wax te di ko jëfe, ma won leen nu muy mel.

⁴⁸he is like a man building a house, who digged and went deep, and laid a foundation upon the rock: and when a flood arose, the stream brake against that house, and could not shake it: because it had been well builded.

⁴⁸ Dafa mel ni nit kuy tabax kër, mu gas fu xóot, jot doj wu réy, samp fa kër ga. Bi mbënn ma ñëwee, wal ma dafa dal ca kër ga te yenguwul, ndaxte nit ka dafa tabax kër ga tabax bu dëgër.

⁴⁹But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that built a house upon the earth without a foundation; against which the stream brake, and straightway it fell in; and the ruin of that house was great.

⁴⁹ Waaye képp ku dégg samay wax te jëfewuloo ko, dinga mel ni nit ku tabax këram ci suuf, bañ koo defal fondamaa. Bi wal ma dalee ca kër googa, dafa màbb ca saa sa, lépp yàqu yaxeet.»
