1At that time Jesus went on the sabbath through the cornfields; and his disciples were hungry, and began to pluck the ears and to eat.
1 Alwaato din ra, asibti* zaari fo hane, Yesu goono ga gana farey ra. A talibey mo go ga maa haray. Kal i soobay ka jeeniyaŋ ceeri ka kaama.
2But the Pharisees, seeing [it], said to him, Behold, thy disciples are doing what is not lawful to do on sabbath.
2 Amma waato kaŋ Farisi* fonda borey di woodin, i ne a se: «Guna haŋ kaŋ ni talibey goono ga te kaŋ si halal* i ma te asibti zaari ra.»
3But he said to them, Have ye not read what David did when he was hungry, and they that were with him?
3 Amma a ne i se: «Araŋ mana caw ka di haŋ kaŋ Dawda te no, waato kaŋ nga nda nga jama maa haray?
4How he entered into the house of God, and ate the shewbread, which it was not lawful for him to eat, nor for those with him, but for the priests only?
4 A furo Irikoy* fuwo ra ka buuru* jisante ŋwa, kaŋ a mana halal a se a ma ŋwa, wala a banda borey mo se, kala day alfagey hinne se?
5Or have ye not read in the law that on the sabbaths the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are blameless?
5 Wala araŋ mana caw asariya ra no, mate kaŋ cine alfagey ga asibti zaaro kaynandi nd'a Irikoy windo ra, i sinda taali mo?
6But I say unto you, that there is here what is greater than the temple.
6 Amma ay ga ne araŋ se, wo kaŋ ga bisa Irikoy windo beeray go ne.
7But if ye had known what is: I will have mercy and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.
7 Amma d'araŋ na woone feerijo bay: ‹Ay wo, suuji no ay ga ba, manti sargay bo› -- doŋ araŋ si taali dake boro kaŋ sinda taali boŋ.
8For the Son of man is Lord of the sabbath.
8 Amma Boro Izo ya asibti zaari Koyo no.»
9And, going away from thence, he came into their synagogue.
9 Kal a tun noodin ka furo i diina marga fuwo ra.
10And behold, there was a man having his hand withered. And they asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath? that they might accuse him.
10 Boro fo binde go noodin kaŋ kamba suugu. I na Yesu hã mo ka ne: «A ga halal no asibti zaari ra i ma boro no baani?» (zama i ma du k'a kalima se).
11But he said to them, What man shall there be of you who has one sheep, and if this fall into a pit on the sabbath, will not lay hold of it and raise [it] up?
11 Amma a ne i se: «Boro woofo no araŋ ra, d'a gonda feeji fo, feejo mo kaŋ guusu ra, asibti hane a s'a di k'a candi ka kaa taray?
12How much better then is a man than a sheep! So that it is lawful to do well on the sabbath.
12 Marge cine no boro bisa feeji darza! Yaadin mo no a ga halal boro ma gomni te asibti hane.»
13Then he says to the man, Stretch out thy hand. And he stretched [it] out, and it was restored sound as the other.
13 Gaa no a ne bora se: «Ma ni kamba salle.» A na nga kamba salle mo, kal a du baani sanda afa cine.
14But the Pharisees, having gone out, took counsel against him, how they might destroy him.
14 Amma Farisi* fonda borey fatta ka saaware a boŋ, mate kaŋ ngey ga te k'a halaci.
15But Jesus knowing [it], withdrew thence, and great crowds followed him; and he healed them all:
15 Amma kaŋ Yesu faham da woodin, a na nga gaa candi ka fay da noodin. Boro boobo n'a gana, a na ikulu no baani mo.
16and charged them strictly that they should not make him publicly known:
16 A n'i lordi mo ka ne i ma s'a bangandi taray
17that that might be fulfilled which was spoken through Esaias the prophet, saying,
17 zama i ma sanno kaŋ i ci annabi Isaya do toonandi, kaŋ ne:
18Behold my servant, whom I have chosen, my beloved, in whom my soul has found its delight. I will put my Spirit upon him, and he shall shew forth judgment to the nations.
18 «Guna, ay tamo neeya kaŋ ay suuban, kaŋ ay ga ba, Kaŋ ay fundo ga maa a kaani gumo. Ay g'ay Biya zumandi a boŋ, A ga cimi ciiti fe dumi cindey se.
19He shall not strive or cry out, nor shall any one hear his voice in the streets;
19 A si gurjay, a si nga jinda sambu mo, Boro kulu si maa a jinda fondey gaa.
20a bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not quench, until he bring forth judgment unto victory;
20 A si kwaar'ize ceera pati ka kaa, Fitilla kaŋ maan buuyaŋ mo, a s'a wi, Hal a ma daŋ cimi ciito ma zaama.
21and on his name shall [the] nations hope.
21 A maa ra mo no dumi cindey ga beeje.»
22Then was brought to him one possessed by a demon, blind and dumb, and he healed him, so that the dumb [man] spake and saw.
22 Gaa no i kand'a se follokom fo kaŋ dana, a beebe mo. Yesu n'a no baani, hala beeba salaŋ, a moy mo fiti, a go ga di.
23And all the crowds were amazed and said, Is this [man] the Son of David?
23 Borey marga mo dambara ka ne: «Boro wo, manti Dawda izo no?»
24But the Pharisees, having heard [it], said, This [man] does not cast out demons, but by Beelzebub, prince of demons.
24 Amma waato kaŋ Farisi* fonda borey maa woodin, i ne: «Boro wo, Baalzabula* (kaŋ ga ti follayey koyo) dabaro no Yesu goono ga follayyaŋ gaaray d'a.»
25But he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not subsist.
25 Amma kaŋ Yesu g'i miiley bay, a ne i se: «Koytaray kulu kaŋ fay ihinka ka gaaba nda care, woodin ga say. Kwaara kulu mo, wala windi, kaŋ fay ihinka ka care wangu ga kaŋ.
26And if Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself; how then shall his kingdom subsist?
26 Da Saytan ga Saytan gaaray, yaadin gaa a fay ihinka nooya ka gaaba nda nga boŋ. Mate no a koytara ga te ka kay?
27And if *I* cast out demons by Beelzebub, your sons, by whom do they cast [them] out? For this reason *they* shall be your judges.
27 D'ay goono ga follayey gaaray da Baalzabula dabaro, araŋ izey binde, may dabari no i goono ga follayey gaaray d'a? Woodin sabbay se, ngey wo ga bara araŋ se ciitikoyaŋ.
28But if *I* by [the] Spirit of God cast out demons, then indeed the kingdom of God is come upon you.
28 Amma hala day Irikoy Biya* dabari no ay goono ga follayey gaaray d'a, yaadin gaa Irikoy koytara kaa araŋ do nooya.
29Or how can any one enter into the house of the strong [man] and plunder his goods, unless first he bind the strong [man]? and then he will plunder his house.
29 Wala mate no boro ga te ka furo gaabikooni fu ra k'a jinay ku, da manti bora jin ka gaabikoono haw no jina? Waato din gaa no a ga hin k'a fuwo jinayey ku.
30He that is not with me is against me, and he that gathers not with me scatters.
30 Boro kaŋ si ay banda ga gaaba nd'ay nooya. Boro kaŋ si margu ay banda mo, a ga say-say.
31For this reason I say unto you, Every sin and injurious speaking shall be forgiven to men, but speaking injuriously of the Spirit shall not be forgiven to men.
31 Woodin sabbay se ay ga ne araŋ se, zunubi kulu da Irikoy alaasiray kulu, i ga borey yaafa nd'ey, amma Biya _Hanno|_* alaasiray i si borey yaafa nd'a.
32And whosoever shall have spoken a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him; but whosoever shall speak against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this age nor in the coming [one].
32 Boro kulu mo kaŋ na sanni yaamo te Boro Izo boŋ, i g'a yaafa a se. Amma bora kaŋ ga sanni yaamo te Biya Hanna boŋ, i s'a yaafa nd'a zamana woone ra wala baa wo kaŋ ga kaa ra.
33Either make the tree good, and its fruit good; or make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt. For from the fruit the tree is known.
33 D'i ne tuuri-nyaŋo ihanno no, a izey mo ihanno yaŋ no. Wala i ma ne tuuri-nyaŋo ilaalo no, a izey mo ilaalo yaŋ no. Zama izey do no i ga tuuri-nya bay.
34Offspring of vipers! how can ye speak good things, being wicked? For of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
34 Araŋ wo, gazama izey, mate no araŋ ga te ka hari hanno ci, araŋ kaŋ ga ti boro laaley? Zama haŋ kaŋ na bine to, me ga ci.
35The good man out of the good treasure brings forth good things; and the wicked man out of the wicked treasure brings forth wicked things.
35 Boro hanno nga jisiri hanna ra no a ga hari hanno yaŋ kaa taray. Boro laalo mo nga jisiri laalo ra no a ga hari laalo yaŋ kaa taray.
36But I say unto you, that every idle word which men shall say, they shall render an account of it in judgment-day:
36 Amma ay ga ne araŋ se, sanni yaamo kulu kaŋ borey ga salaŋ, ciiti zaaro ra i ga ye k'i lasaabu.
37for by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
37 Zama ni sanno do no i ga ni adilandi*, ni sanno do mo no i ga ni zeeri.»
38Then answered him some of the scribes and Pharisees, saying, Teacher, we desire to see a sign from thee.
38 Alwaato din no asariya dondonandiko fooyaŋ da Farisi fonda borey tu ka ne a se: «Alfa, iri ga ba iri ma di alaama fo ni do.»
39But he, answering, said to them, A wicked and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and a sign shall not be given to it save the sign of Jonas the prophet.
39 Amma a tu ka ne i se: «Zamana laalo da zina-teero wo borey goono ga alaama fo ceeci. I s'i no alaama kulu kala day annabi Yonana* alaama hinne.
40For even as Jonas was in the belly of the great fish three days and three nights, thus shall the Son of man be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights.
40 Zama mate kaŋ cine Yonana goro cin hinza da zaari hinza teeku ham beero gunda ra, yaadin cine no Boro Izo mo ga goro cin hinza da zaari hinza laabo bina ra.
41Ninevites shall stand up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it: for they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and behold, more than Jonas [is] here.
41 Ninawiya* borey ga tun suba-aliciyoma ciito ra zamana wo borey game ra k'i ciiti k'i zeeri mo, zama ngey wo tuubi waato kaŋ Yonana waazu. Guna mo, boro kaŋ bisa Yonana beeray neeya.
42A queen of [the] south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, more than Solomon [is] here.
42 Dandi kambe wayboro bonkoono ga tun suba-aliciyoma ciito ra zamana wo borey game ra, k'i zeeri. Zama za ndunnya me no a fun ka kaa ka maa Suleymanu laakal sanney. Guna mo, nga kaŋ bisa Suleymanu beeray go ne.
43But when the unclean spirit has gone out of the man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest, and does not find [it].
43 Amma waati kaŋ follay fun boro banda, a ga dira ka gana naŋ kaŋ hari si, ka ceeci naŋ kaŋ ga fulanzam, a si du mo.
44Then he says, I will return to my house whence I came out; and having come, he finds [it] unoccupied, swept, and adorned.
44 Gaa no, a ga ne: ‹Ay ga ye ay fu zeena ra, naŋ kaŋ ay fun.› Waato kaŋ a to noodin a ma gar boro kulu si fuwo ra, i n'a haabu k'a taalam.
45Then he goes and takes with himself seven other spirits worse than himself, and entering in, they dwell there; and the last condition of that man becomes worse than the first. Thus shall it be to this wicked generation also.
45 Gaa no a ga koy ka kande follay iyye fooyaŋ nga banda kaŋ yaŋ ga futu ka bisa nga bumbo, i ma furo ka goro noodin. Bora din kokor banda gora ga laala ka jaase ijina. Yaadin mo no a ga ciya zamana laalo wo borey se.»
46But while he was yet speaking to the crowds, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, seeking to speak to him.
46 A goono ga salaŋ marga se binde, kal a nya d'a nya izey kaa. I go ga kay taray, i goono ga ceeci ngey ma salaŋ d'a.
47Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren are standing without, seeking to speak to thee.
47 Kala boro fo ne a se: «Guna, ni nya da ni nya izey neeya taray, i ga ba ngey ma salaŋ da nin.»
48But he answering said to him that spoke to him, Who is my mother, and who are my brethren?
48 Amma a tu bora se kaŋ salaŋ d'a, ka ne: «May no ga ti ay nya? Wala may no ga ti ay nya izey mo?»
49And, stretching out his hand to his disciples, he said, Behold my mother and my brethren;
49 A na nga kambe salle nga talibey do haray ka ne: «Ay nya d'ay nya izey, ngey neeya.
50for whosoever shall do the will of my Father who is in [the] heavens, he is my brother, and sister, and mother.
50 Zama borey kulu kaŋ g'ay Baabo kaŋ go beena ra miila te, ngey no ga ti ay kayne alborey, d'ay waymey, d'ay nya.»
