Wolof: New Testament

Matthew

7

1Judge not, that ye be not judged.
1 «Buleen àtte seeni moroom ak ñaaw njort, ngir bañ ñu àtte leen yéen itam.
2For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured unto you.
2 Ndaxte dees na leen àtte ak ni ngeen di àttee, nattal leen ak li ngeen di nattale.
3And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
3 Lu tax ngay xool ñax gi ci sa bëtu mbokk, te gisuloo gànj gi ci sa bët yaw?
4Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me cast out the mote out of thine eye; and lo, the beam is in thine own eye?
4 Walla nan ngay waxe sa mbokk: “May ma, ma dindil la ñax gi ci sa bët,” fekk gànj a ngii ci sa bët yaw?
5Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
5 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.
6Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast your pearls before the swine, lest haply they trample them under their feet, and turn and rend you.
6 «Buleen jox lu sell xaj yi, mbaa sànni seeni per ci kanamu mbaam-xuux yi, ngir bañ ñu dëggaate ko te walbatiku, xotti leen.
7Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
7 «Ñaanleen, ñu may leen; seetleen te dingeen gis; fëggleen, ñu ubbil leen.
8for every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
8 Ndaxte képp kuy ñaan, dinga am; kuy seet, dinga gis; kuy fëgg, ñu ubbil la.
9Or what man is there of you, who, if his son shall ask him for a loaf, will give him a stone;
9 Kan ci yéen, bu la sa doom ñaanee mburu, nga jox ko doj?
10or if he shall ask for a fish, will give him a serpent?
10 Walla mu ñaan la jën, nga jox ko jaan?
11If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father who is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
11 Ndegam yéen ñi bon yéena man a jox seeni gune lu baax, astemaak seen Baay bi nekk ci kaw dina jox lu baax ñi ko koy ñaan!
12All things therefore whatsoever ye would that men should do unto you, even so do ye also unto them: for this is the law and the prophets.
12 «Kon nag lépp lu ngeen bëgg, nit ñi defal leen ko, yéen itam nangeen leen ko defal; ndaxte loolu moo ëmb yoonu Musaa ak waxi yonent yi.
13Enter ye in by the narrow gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many are they that enter in thereby.
13 «Jaarleen ci bunt bu xat bi, ndaxte bunt bi ak yoon wi jëm sànku yaatu nañu, te ñi ciy jaar bare.
14For narrow is the gate, and straitened the way, that leadeth unto life, and few are they that find it.
14 Waaye buntu dund gu wóor xat na, te yoon wi jëm kaw sew na, te ñi ko gis barewul.
15Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves.
15 «Moytuleen ñi mbubboo turu yonent. Dañuy ñëw ci yéen, yor melow xar, waaye ci biir ay bukki yu soxor lañu.
16By their fruits ye shall know them. Do [men] gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
16 Dingeen leen xàmmee ci seeni jëf. Ndax dees na witte réseñ ci dédd, walla figg ci xaaxaam?
17Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but the corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
17 Noonu garab gu baax gu nekk dina meññ doom yu neex, waaye garab gu bon dina meññ doom yu bon.
18A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
18 Garab gu baax mënul a meññ doom yu bon, naka itam garab gu bon mënul a meññ doom yu neex.
19Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
19 Garab gu nekk gu dul meññ doom yu neex, dees na ko gor, sànni ko ca safara sa.
20Therefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
20 Ci seeni jëf nag ngeen leen di xàmmee.
21Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father who is in heaven.
21 «Du képp ku may wax: “Boroom bi, Boroom bi,” mooy dugg ca nguuru Yàlla Aji Kawe ji; ka cay dugg mooy kiy def sama coobareg Baay, bi nekk ci kaw.
22Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy by thy name, and by thy name cast out demons, and by thy name do many mighty works?
22 Bu bés baa, ñu bare dinañu ma wax: “Boroom bi, Boroom bi, ndax du ci saw tur lanu daa waxe ci kàddug Yàlla? Ndax du ci saw tur lanu daa dàqe ay rab? Ndax du ci saw tur lanu daa defe ay kéemaan yu bare?”
23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
23 Ci kaw loolu dinaa leen wax dëgg ne leen: “Musuma leen a xam; soreleen ma, yéen ñiy def bàkkaar.”
24Every one therefore that heareth these words of mine, and doeth them, shall be likened unto a wise man, who built his house upon the rock:
24 «Képp ku dégg nag lii ma leen wax, te di ko jëfe, dinga mel ni nit ku am xel, ku tabax këram, samp ko ciw doj.
25and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and if fell not: for it was founded upon the rock.
25 Ba mu noppee, taw bi daldi sóob, wal mi ñëw, ngelaw li jóg, ñu dal ci kaw kër ga; waaye màbbul, ndaxte mu ngi jàpp ca doj wa.
26And every one that heareth these words of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand:
26 Waaye képp ku dégg lii ma leen wax, te jëfewuloo ko, dinga mel ni nit ku ñàkk xel, ku tabax këram ci gànnuus bi.
27and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and smote upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall thereof.
27 Ba mu noppee, taw bi daldi sóob, wal mi ñëw, ngelaw li jóg, ñu dal ci kaw kër ga; mu màbb, ba ne tasar.»
28And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these words, the multitudes were astonished at his teaching:
28 Bi Yeesu waxee loolu ba noppi, mbooloo ma daldi waaru ca njàngaleem,
29for he taught them as [one] having authority, and not as their scribes.
29 ndaxte jàngal na leen ak sañ-sañ bu seeni xutbakat amul.
