1It happened, when he went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees on a Sabbath to eat bread, that they were watching him.
1 A go no mo han fo Yesu furo Farisi fonda borey jine boro fo fu ra, asibti* zaari fo, zama nga ma ŋwa. Kala ngey mo goono g'a mo-kuru-kuru.
2Behold, a certain man who had dropsy was in front of him.
2 Guna mo, boro fo go noodin a jine kaŋ te yeeni fuusi.
3Jesus, answering, spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”
3 Yesu mo tu ka salaŋ asariya* baykoy da Farisi fonda borey se ka ne: «A ga halal* i ma baani nooyaŋ te asibti zaaro ra, wala a si halal?»
4But they were silent. He took him, and healed him, and let him go.
4 Amma i dangay. Yesu na bora di k'a no baani k'a sallama.
5He answered them, “Which of you, if your son TR reads “donkey” instead of “son” or an ox fell into a well, wouldn’t immediately pull him out on a Sabbath day?”
5 A ne i se mo: «May no araŋ ra, kaŋ d'a ize wala yeeji kaŋ guusu ra, a s'a kaa sahãadin-sahãadin asibti zaaro ra?»
6They couldn’t answer him regarding these things.
6 I mana hin ka tu a se hayey din boŋ.
7He spoke a parable to those who were invited, when he noticed how they chose the best seats, and said to them,
7 Waato kaŋ a di mate kaŋ i goono ga nangoray darzakoyey suuban ngey boŋ se, kal a na misa fo ci ngey kaŋ yaŋ i ce se. A ne i se:
8 “When you are invited by anyone to a marriage feast, don’t sit in the best seat, since perhaps someone more honorable than you might be invited by him,
8 «Waati kaŋ boro fo ga ni ce hiijay batu do, ma si sintin ka goro boro beerey nango ra, zama hambara i na boro fo ce kaŋ bisa nin beeray.
9 and he who invited both of you would come and tell you, ‘Make room for this person.’ Then you would begin, with shame, to take the lowest place.
9 Nga kaŋ na ni ce mo, a ma kand'a ka ne ni se: ‹Ma nango no boro wo se.› Waato din gaa, haawi ga ni di hala ni ma ye i kulu kokor banda nango ra.
10 But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes, he may tell you, ‘Friend, move up higher.’ Then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at the table with you.
10 Amma d'i na ni ce, ma koy ka goro i kulu kokor banda nango ra, zama boro kaŋ na ni ce ma kaa ka ne ni se: ‹Ay cora, ma kaaru ka to beene.› Alwaato din ni ga du darza borey kulu kaŋ nin d'ey goono ga goro ŋwaaro do jine.
11 For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.”
11 Zama boro kulu kaŋ ga nga boŋ beerandi, i g'a kaynandi. Boro kaŋ ga nga boŋ kaynandi mo, i g'a beerandi.»
12He also said to the one who had invited him, “When you make a dinner or a supper, don’t call your friends, nor your brothers, nor your kinsmen, nor rich neighbors, or perhaps they might also return the favor, and pay you back.
12 A ne koyne bora kaŋ n'a ce din se: «Waati kaŋ ni ga fakaariyaŋ ce i ma kaa ni kwaara, ma si ni corey ce, wala ni nya-izey, wala ni dumey, wala ni gorokasiney kaŋ yaŋ gonda arzaka. A ma si te hambara ngey mo ma ni ce, k'a bana ni se.
13 But when you make a feast, ask the poor, the maimed, the lame, or the blind;
13 Amma, da ni na batu te, ma talkey, da simbarkoy, da larantey, da danawey ce.
14 and you will be blessed, because they don’t have the resources to repay you. For you will be repaid in the resurrection of the righteous.”
14 I ga albarka gaara ni se, zama i sinda hari kaŋ i ga ye ni se. Zama Irikoy g'a ye ni se adilantey tunandiyaŋo waate.»
15When one of those who sat at the table with him heard these things, he said to him, “Blessed is he who will feast in the Kingdom of God!”
15 I boro fo mo kaŋ go ga goro ŋwaaro do, waato kaŋ a maa woodin, kal a ne Yesu se: «Albarkante no boro kaŋ ga ŋwaari ŋwa Irikoy koytara ra!»
16But he said to him, “A certain man made a great supper, and he invited many people.
16 Amma Yesu ne a se: «Boro fo na batu bambata te ka boro boobo ce.
17 He sent out his servant at supper time to tell those who were invited, ‘Come, for everything is ready now.’
17 Alwaato kaŋ ŋwaaro nin, a na nga bannya donton zama a ma ne ngey kaŋ i n'i ce din se: ‹Wa kaa, zama hay kulu go soolante sohõ.›
18 They all as one began to make excuses. “The first said to him, ‘I have bought a field, and I must go and see it. Please have me excused.’
18 I kulu sintin ka te me folloŋ ka kande kobay. Sintina ne a se: ‹Ay na fari fo day, tilas ay ma koy ka di a. Ay ga ni ŋwaaray, ma alhaanan ay se.›
19 “Another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I must go try them out. Please have me excused.’
19 Afo mo ne: ‹Ay na farmi yeeji way day, kal ay m'i si ka di. Ay ga ni ŋwaaray, ma alhaanan ay se.›
20 “Another said, ‘I have married a wife, and therefore I can’t come.’
20 Afo mo ne: ‹Ay na wande fo hiiji, woodin sabbay se ay si du ka kaa.›
21 “That servant came, and told his lord these things. Then the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant, ‘Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in the poor, maimed, blind, and lame.’
21 Bannya kaa ka sanney din ci nga koyo se. Kala windikoyo dukur ka ci nga bannya se: ‹Ma waasu ka koy kwaara fondo beerey da fondo kayney ra ka kande talkey da larantey da danawey da simbarkoy.›
22 “The servant said, ‘Lord, it is done as you commanded, and there is still room.’
22 Kala bannya ne a se: ‹Ay jine bora, wo kaŋ ni ne, a te. Hala hõ mo nangu cindi.›
23 “The lord said to the servant, ‘Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.
23 Koyo ne bannya se: ‹Ma koy fondayzey ra nda saaji laawaley ra k'i tilasandi i ma kaa, hal ay fuwo ma to.
24 For I tell you that none of those men who were invited will taste of my supper.’”
24 Zama ay ga ci araŋ se: borey kaŋ i jin ka ce din ra, baa afolloŋ si ay ŋwaaro taba.› »
25Now great multitudes were going with him. He turned and said to them,
25 Borey marga bambata margu k'a dum. A bare ka ne i se:
26 “If anyone comes to me, and doesn’t disregard or, hate his own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he can’t be my disciple.
26 «Boro kulu kaŋ kaa ay do, d'a mana wangu nga baaba, da nga nya, da nga wande, da nga izey, da nga nya ize alborey, nda nga waymey, oho, hala nga bumbo fundo mo -- a si hin ka ciya ay talibi.
27 Whoever doesn’t bear his own cross, and come after me, can’t be my disciple.
27 Boro kulu kaŋ si nga kanjiyaŋ bundo sambu k'ay gana si hin ka ciya ay talibi.
28 For which of you, desiring to build a tower, doesn’t first sit down and count the cost, to see if he has enough to complete it?
28 Zama may no araŋ ra, d'a ga ba nga ma jidan bisa cina, kaŋ si goro jina ka nooro lasaabu, hal a gonda hari kaŋ g'a cina ka ban?
29 Or perhaps, when he has laid a foundation, and is not able to finish, everyone who sees begins to mock him,
29 A ma si te, waato kaŋ a na daba sinji, a ma jaŋ k'a kubay, hala boro kulu kaŋ ga di a, i ma sintin k'a haaru
30 saying, ‘This man began to build, and wasn’t able to finish.’
30 ka ne: ‹Bora din sintin cinayaŋ, amma a mongo k'a ban.›
31 Or what king, as he goes to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand?
31 Wala laabu koy woofo no, kaŋ ga fatta ka kubanda laabu fo koy wongu ra, kaŋ a si goro ganda jina ka saaware nga boŋ gaa, hala nga kaŋ gonda sooje zambar way, a ga hin ka kubanda nga kaŋ ga kand'a gaa sooje zambar waranka?
32 Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends an envoy, and asks for conditions of peace.
32 D'a si hin a, za afa go nangu mooro no, a ga diyayaŋ donton ka amaana nooyaŋ ŋwaaray, baani sabbay se.
33 So therefore whoever of you who doesn’t renounce all that he has, he can’t be my disciple.
33 Yaadin mo no, d'araŋ boro kulu si hari kulu kaŋ ga ti nga wane taŋ, a si hin ka ciya ay talibi.
34 Salt is good, but if the salt becomes flat and tasteless, with what do you season it?
34 Ciiri ga boori, amma d'a tar, ifo no i g'a hanse nd'a?
35 It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile. It is thrown out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
35 A sinda nafa kulu laabu se wala birji se. I g'a furu no. Boro kaŋ gonda hanga kaŋ ga maa, a ma maa.»
