¹Now there were some present at the same time who told him about the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.

¹ Alwaato din ra boro fooyaŋ kaŋ go noodin goono ga Galili* borey baaro dede Yesu se, ngey kaŋ Bilatos* n'i kuri margu nda ngey sargayey.

¹Now there were some present at that very season who told him of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.

²Jesus answered them, “Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered such things?

² A tu ka ne i se: «Araŋ ga tammahã hala Galili borey din ya zunubikooniyaŋ no ka bisa Galili borey kulu, kaŋ se i maa taabey din dumi?

²And he answered and said unto them, Think ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they have suffered these things?

³ I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way.

³ Ay ga ne araŋ se: abada! Amma d'araŋ mana tuubi, araŋ kulu ga halaci yaadin cine.

³I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all in like manner perish.

⁴ Or those eighteen, on whom the tower in Siloam fell, and killed them; do you think that they were worse offenders than all the men who dwell in Jerusalem?

⁴ Wala iway cindi ahakka din, kaŋ jidan bisa fo kaŋ i boŋ Silowam ra k'i wi -- araŋ ga tammahã ngey wo garawkooniyaŋ no ka bisa boro kulu kaŋ go Urusalima* ra?

⁵I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

⁶He spoke this parable. “A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it, and found none.

⁶ A na misa wo ci, ka ne: «Boro fo gonda jeejay* nya fo kaŋ i tilam reyzin* faro ra. A kaa ka izey ceeci a gaa, a mana du.

⁶And he spake this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came seeking fruit thereon, and found none.

⁷ He said to the vine dresser, ‘Behold, these three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree, and found none. Cut it down. Why does it waste the soil?’

⁷ A ne nga goy-teero se: ‹Guna. Jiiri hinza neeya kaŋ ay goono ga kaa ka ize ceeci jeejay nyaŋo wo gaa, ay mana du. A wi. Ifo se no a ga batama wi koyne?›

⁷And he said unto the vinedresser, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why doth it also cumber the ground?

⁸ He answered, ‘Lord, leave it alone this year also, until I dig around it, and fertilize it.

⁸ Amma goy-teero tu ka ne a se: ‹Ay jine bora, ma fay d'a jiiro wo koyne, hal ay m'a far k'a birji.

⁸And he answering saith unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it:

⁹ If it bears fruit, fine; but if not, after that, you can cut it down.’”

⁹ D'a te izey ne ka koy jine, to! Amma d'a mana te, ni g'a wi.› »

⁹and if it bear fruit thenceforth, [well]; but if not, thou shalt cut it down.

¹⁰He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath day.

¹¹Behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and she was bent over, and could in no way straighten herself up.

¹¹And behold, a woman that had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years; and she was bowed together, and could in no wise lift herself up.

¹²When Jesus saw her, he called her, and said to her, “Woman, you are freed from your infirmity.”

¹² Waato kaŋ Yesu di a, a n'a ce ka ne a se: «Waybora, i na ni feeri ni zaŋa gaa.»

¹²And when Jesus saw her, he called her, and said to her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.

¹³ Yesu na nga kambey dak'a gaa, sahãadin-sahãadin mo a tun ka salle soosay. A soobay ka Irikoy beerandi.

¹³And he laid his hands upon her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.

¹⁴The ruler of the synagogue, being indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, said to the multitude, “There are six days in which men ought to work. Therefore come on those days and be healed, and not on the Sabbath day!”

¹⁴ Amma diina marga jine bora te bine zama Yesu na baani nooyaŋ te asibti zaaro ra. Woodin sabbay se a salaŋ borey marga se ka ne: «Jirbi iddu go no kaŋ ra a ga hima borey ma goy. I ra mo araŋ ma kaa, i m'araŋ no baani, amma manti asibti zaaro ra.»

¹⁴And the ruler of the synagogue, being moved with indignation because Jesus had healed on the sabbath, answered and said to the multitude, There are six days in which men ought to work: in them therefore come and be healed, and not on the day of the sabbath.

¹⁵Therefore the Lord answered him, “You hypocrites! Doesn’t each one of you free his ox or his donkey from the stall on the Sabbath, and lead him away to water?

¹⁵ Amma Rabbi tu ka ne a se: «Araŋ wo munaficey! Manti asibti zaaro ra araŋ boro kulu ga nga yeejo wala nga farka feeri kanga gaa, ka kond'a k'a haŋandi?

¹⁵But the Lord answered him, and said, Ye hypocrites, doth not each one of you on the sabbath loose his ox or his ass from the stall, and lead him away to watering?

¹⁶ Ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan had bound eighteen long years, be freed from this bondage on the Sabbath day?”

¹⁶ Wayboro wo binde, kaŋ ga ti Ibrahim ize fo kaŋ Saytan* n'a haw sohõ a jiiri waranka ihinka si, manti a ga hima i m'a feeri hawyaŋo gaa asibti zaaro ra bo?»

¹⁶And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan had bound, lo, [these] eighteen years, to have been loosed from this bond on the day of the sabbath?

¹⁷ Waato kaŋ a na hayey din ci, kala borey kaŋ yaŋ go ga gaaba nd'a kulu, haawi n'i di. Borey marga kulu farhã mo, goy darzantey kaŋ go ga te a do sabbay se.

¹⁷And as he said these things, all his adversaries were put to shame: and all the multitude rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.

¹⁸He said, “What is the Kingdom of God like? To what shall I compare it?

¹⁸ Yesu ne binde: «Sanda ifo cine no Irikoy koytara ga bara nd'a? Ifo no ay g'a himandi nd'a?

¹⁸He said therefore, Unto what is the kingdom of God like? and whereunto shall I liken it?

¹⁹ It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and put in his own garden. It grew, and became a large tree, and the birds of the sky lodged in its branches.”

¹⁹ A ga hima sanda mutard* ize cine no kaŋ boro sambu ka duma nga kalo ra. A beeri hal a te tuuri-nya, beene curey mo zumbu a kambey boŋ.»

²⁰And again he said, Whereunto shall I liken the kingdom of God?

²⁵ Waato kaŋ windikoyo jin ka tun ka fu meyo daabu, kal araŋ ma sintin ka kay taray, ka fu meyo kar ka ne: ‹Rabbi, ma fiti iri se!› Nga mo ma tu araŋ se ka ne: ‹Ay si araŋ bay, wala nangu kaŋ no araŋ fun.›

²⁵When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, open to us; and he shall answer and say to you, I know you not whence ye are;
