¹ Yesu sintin ka salaŋ i se da misayaŋ ka ne: «Boro fo na reyzin* kali tilam k'a windi da sinkita, a na guusu fansi mo reyzin haro kankamyaŋ sabbay se. A na jidan bisa cina ka kalo sufuray goy-teeri fooyaŋ se ka koy laabu fo ra.

¹He began to speak to them in parables. “A man planted a vineyard, put a hedge around it, dug a pit for the winepress, built a tower, rented it out to a farmer, and went into another country.

² Waato kaŋ alwaato to a ma du kali albarka ra goy-teerey do, a na bannya fo donton i gaa.

² When it was time, he sent a servant to the farmer to get from the farmer his share of the fruit of the vineyard.

³ I n'a di k'a kar ka tutubu k'a sallama kambe koonu.

³ They took him, beat him, and sent him away empty.

⁴ A ye ka bannya fo donton i gaa. Woodin mo i n'a boŋo bagu k'a kayna.

⁴ Again, he sent another servant to them; and they threw stones at him, wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully treated.

⁵ A ye k'afo donton koyne. Nga wo i n'a wi. A na iboobo fooyaŋ mo donton. Afooyaŋ i n'i kar ka tutubu, afooyaŋ i n'i wi.

⁵ Again he sent another; and they killed him; and many others, beating some, and killing some.

⁶ Sohõ afolloŋ no ka cindi a se, a izo kaŋ a ga ba gumo no. A n'a donton kokor banda ka ne: ‹I g'ay izo beerandi.›

⁶ Therefore still having one, his beloved son, he sent him last to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’

⁷ Amma goy-teerey din ne ngey nda care se: ‹Woone ya tubukwa no. Wa kaa, iri m'a wi, tubo ma ciya iri wane.›

⁷ But those farmers said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’

⁸ I n'a di k'a wi k'a catu kalo banda.

⁸ They took him, killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.

⁹ To. Ifo no kali koyo ga te? A ga kaa no ka goy-teerey din halaci ka kalo sufuray boro fooyaŋ se.

⁹ What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.

¹⁰ Wala araŋ mana sanno wo kaŋ go Irikoy Tira Hanna ra caw no? ‹Tondo kaŋ cinakoy wangu, nga no ciya cinaro boŋo.

¹⁰ Haven’t you even read this Scripture: ‘The stone which the builders rejected, the same was made the head of the corner.

¹¹ Woodin ya Rabbi te-goy no, dambara hari mo no iri diyaŋ gaa.› »

¹¹ This was from the Lord, it is marvelous in our eyes’?” Psalm 118:22-23

¹² I ceeci ngey ma Yesu di, amma i ga humburu borey marga, zama i faham kaŋ ngey boŋ no a na misa wo ci. I n'a naŋ ka dira.

¹²They tried to seize him, but they feared the multitude; for they perceived that he spoke the parable against them. They left him, and went away.

¹³ I na Farisi* fonda da Hirodus* fonda boro fooyaŋ donton a gaa zama i m'a di a sanno ra.

¹³They sent some of the Pharisees and of the Herodians to him, that they might trap him with words.

¹⁴ Waato kaŋ i kaa, i ne a se: «Alfa, iri ga bay kaŋ ni ya cimikoy no, ni baa si nda boro kulu zama ni si baar'a-baar'a te no, amma cimi ra no ni goono ga Irikoy fonda dondonandiyaŋo te nd'a. To, ma ci iri se hala a ga halal* iri ma jangal bana Kaysar* se no, wala manti yaadin no?

¹⁴When they had come, they asked him, “Teacher, we know that you are honest, and don’t defer to anyone; for you aren’t partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?

¹⁵ Iri m'a no wala iri ma si no?» Amma zama Yesu g'i munaficitara bay, a ne i se: «Ifo se no araŋ g'ay si? Wa kand'ay se dinari* nooru ize fo hal ay ma di a.»

¹⁵Shall we give, or shall we not give?” But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, “Why do you test me? Bring me a denarius, that I may see it.”

¹⁶ I kande afo mo. A ne i se: «Foto da hantumo wo binde, may wane no?» I ne a se: «Kaysar wane no.»

¹⁶They brought it. He said to them, “Whose is this image and inscription?” They said to him, “Caesar’s.”

¹⁷ Yesu ne i se: «Wa Kaysar hayey no Kaysar se. Irikoy hayey mo, araŋ m'i no Irikoy se.» I dambara nd'a gumo.

¹⁷Jesus answered them, “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” They marveled greatly at him.

¹⁸ Sadusi* fonda borey kaŋ yaŋ goono ga ne buukoy tunandiyaŋ si no, ngey mo kaa Yesu do k'a hã.

¹⁸There came to him Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection. They asked him, saying,

¹⁹ I ne: «Alfa, Musa hantum iri se ka ne, da boro fo nya ize bu ka nga wande naŋ, a mana ize naŋ mo, kal a nya ize fo m'a wando hiiji ka du ize nga nya izo se.

¹⁹“Teacher, Moses wrote to us, ‘If a man’s brother dies, and leaves a wife behind him, and leaves no children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up offspring for his brother.’

²⁰ Doŋ nya ize iyye go no. Sintina na wando hiiji. A bu, a mana ize kulu naŋ.

²⁰There were seven brothers. The first took a wife, and dying left no offspring.

²¹ Ihinkanta mo n'a hiiji. Nga mo bu, nga mo mana ize kulu naŋ. Ihinzanta mo, yaadin n'a te,

²¹The second took her, and died, leaving no children behind him. The third likewise;

²² hala i boro iyya kulu mo, i mana ize kulu naŋ. I kulu banda waybora bumbo bu.

²²and the seven took her and left no children. Last of all the woman also died.

²³ Kayando hane binde, waybora ga bara i ra woofo wande, zama i boro iyya kulu n'a hiiji?»

²³In the resurrection, when they rise, whose wife will she be of them? For the seven had her as a wife.”

²⁴ Yesu mo ne i se: «Haŋ kaŋ se araŋ ga harta neeya: zama araŋ si Tawretu* nda Zabura* nda Annabey* Tirey bay, araŋ mana Irikoy hino mo bay.

²⁴Jesus answered them, “Isn’t this because you are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God?

²⁵ Zama waati kaŋ buukoy ga tun, i si hiiji, i s'i hiijandi mo, amma i go sanda beena ra malaykey cine.

²⁵ For when they will rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.

²⁶ Amma buukoy ciine ra d'i tunyaŋo mo, araŋ mana caw Musa tira ra, mate kaŋ Irikoy salaŋ a se gumbo do ka ne: ‹Ay no ga ti Ibrahim Irikoyo, da Isaka Irikoyo, da Yakuba Irikoyo.›

²⁶ But about the dead, that they are raised; haven’t you read in the book of Moses, about the Bush, how God spoke to him, saying, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’ Exodus 3:6 ?

²⁷ Nga wo manti buukoy Irikoy no bo, amma fundikooney wane no. Araŋ binde harta gumo.»

²⁷ He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are therefore badly mistaken.”

²⁸ Asariya* dondonandikoy ra afo kaa, a maa mo mate kaŋ i go ga care hã d'a. A bay mo kaŋ Yesu tu i se hal a boori. A na Yesu hã ka ne: «Woofo ga ti lordi* sintina i kulu ra.»

²⁸One of the scribes came, and heard them questioning together. Knowing that he had answered them well, asked him, “Which commandment is the greatest of all?”

²⁹ Yesu tu ka ne: «Sintina neeya: ‹Ya Israyla*, wa maa! Rabbi iri Irikoyo, ya Rabbi folloŋ no.

²⁹Jesus answered, “The greatest is, ‘Hear, Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one:

³⁰ Ni ma ba Rabbi ni Irikoyo da ni bina kulu, da ni fundo kulu, da ni laakalo kulu, da ni gaabo kulu.›

³⁰ you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ Deuteronomy 6:4-5 This is the first commandment.

³¹ Ihinkanta mo neeya: ‹Ni ma ba ni gorokasin danga ni boŋ cine.› Lordi fo si no kaŋ ga bisa woodin yaŋ beeray.»

³¹ The second is like this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ Leviticus 19:18 There is no other commandment greater than these.”

³² Asariya dondonandikwa ne a se: «Cimi no, Alfa, cimi boŋ mo no ni salaŋ. Zama Irikoy ya afolloŋ no, afo si no mo kala nga.

³²The scribe said to him, “Truly, teacher, you have said well that he is one, and there is none other but he,

³³ Boro ma ba r'a da bine kulu da laakal kulu da gaabi kulu, a ma ba nga gorokasin mo danga nga boŋ cine, woodin ga bisa tonyaŋ sargay da nooyaŋey kulu gumo.»

³³and to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbor as himself, is more important than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.”

³⁴ Kaŋ Yesu di a tu da laakal, kal a ne a se: «Ni mana mooru Irikoy koytara gaa.» Woodin banda boro kulu mana ta k'a hã hay fo koyne.

³⁴When Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, “You are not far from the Kingdom of God.” No one dared ask him any question after that.

³⁵ Waato kaŋ Yesu goono ga dondonandi Irikoy windo ra, a ne: «Mate no kaŋ asariya dondonandikoy goono ga ne Almasihu ya Dawda ize no?

³⁵Jesus responded, as he taught in the temple, “How is it that the scribes say that the Christ is the son of David?

³⁶ Biya Hanna ra Dawda bumbo ne: ‹Rabbi ne ay Koyo se: Ma goro ay kambe ŋwaaro gaa, hal ay ma ni ibarey daŋ ni ce taamey cire.›

³⁶ For David himself said in the Holy Spirit, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet.”’ Psalm 110:1

³⁷ Da Dawda bumbo ga ne a se Rabbi, mate no Almasihu ga te ka ciya a se ize koyne?» Talkey mo hangan ka maa r'a da bina kaani.

³⁷ Therefore David himself calls him Lord, so how can he be his son?” The common people heard him gladly.

³⁸ A dondonandiyaŋo ra a ne i se: «Araŋ ma haggoy da asariya dondonandikoy kaŋ yaŋ ga ba ngey ma dira ka windi nda kwaay kuuku yaŋ, borey m'i fo mo habey ra.

³⁸In his teaching he said to them, “Beware of the scribes, who like to walk in long robes, and to get greetings in the marketplaces,

³⁹ I ga ba boro beerey nangorayey diina marga fuwey ra, da jine goray bucey do.

³⁹ and the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts:

⁴⁰ Woone yaŋ ga wayborey kaŋ kurnyey bu windey ŋwa, i ga adduwa kuuku te ka te ce birji mo. I ga du ciiti konno kaŋ ga jaase ikulu.»

⁴⁰ those who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”

⁴¹ Yesu goro ga tanji nda nooru jisiro. A go ga di mo mate kaŋ borey marga goono ga ngey noorey daŋ nooru jisiro ra. Arzakante boobo mo na iboobo daŋ a ra.

⁴¹Jesus sat down opposite the treasury, and saw how the multitude cast money into the treasury. Many who were rich cast in much.

⁴² Wayboro talka fo kaŋ kurnye bu mo kaa ka tanka hinka daŋ.

⁴²A poor widow came, and she cast in two small brass coins, literally, lepta (or widow’s mites). Lepta are very small brass coins worth half a quadrans each, which is a quarter of the copper assarion. Lepta are worth less than 1% of an agricultural worker’s daily wages. which equal a quadrans coin. A quadrans is a coin worth about 1/64 of a denarius. A denarius is about one day’s wages for an agricultural laborer.

⁴³ Yesu na nga talibey ce nga do ka ne i se: «Haciika ay ga ne araŋ se: haŋ kaŋ wayboro talko wo kaŋ kurnye bu daŋ, a bisa i kulu waney kaŋ i daŋ nooru jisiro ra.

⁴³He called his disciples to himself, and said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, this poor widow gave more than all those who are giving into the treasury,

⁴⁴ Zama ngey wo, i nooru booba ra no i kaa ka daŋ, amma wayboro wo, nga alfukaarutara ra no a daŋ hay kulu kaŋ a gonda nga baafuna se.»

⁴⁴ for they all gave out of their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, gave all that she had to live on.”
