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

¹ Ca jamono jooju ay nit ñëw ca Yeesu, nettali mbirum waa Galile, ya Pilaat reylu woon, jaxase seen deret ak dereti mala, yi ñu rendi woon, jébbal leen Yàlla.

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

² Mu tontu leen ne: «Mbaa du dangeen a xalaat ne, waa Galile yooyu dañoo gën a nekk bàkkaarkat ña ca des, ndax coono bi ñu daj?

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

³ Maa ngi leen di wax ne, du dëgg. Waaye su ngeen tuubul seeni bàkkaar, dingeen sànku noonu, yéen ñépp itam.

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 Te fukki nit ak juróom-ñett ñooñu dee, bi taaxum kaw ma ca goxu Silowe daanoo ci seen kaw, ndax dangeen a yaakaar ne, ñoo gën a nekk ay tooñkat ñeneen ñi dëkk Yerusalem yépp?

⁵ I tell you, no, but, unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way.”

⁵ Maa ngi leen di wax ne, du dëgg. Waaye su ngeen tuubul seeni bàkkaar, dingeen sànku noonu, yéen ñépp itam.»

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 Noonu mu daldi leen wax léeb wii: «Nit amoon na ci toolam garab gu ñu naan figg. Benn bés mu ñëw di ko raas-si, fekku fa benn doom.

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 Noonu mu ne surga ba: “Ñetti at a ngii may ñëw di raas-si garab gii te duma ci fekk dara. Gor ko. Lu tax muy xatal tool bi?”

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

⁸ Surga ba tontu ko ne: “Sang bi, bàyyiwaat ko fi at mii. Dinaa wàqi taat wi, def ci tos.

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

⁹ Xëy na dina meññi. Bu ko deful, nga gor ko.”»

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

¹⁰ Benn bésu noflaay Yeesoo ngi doon jàngale ci ab jàngu.

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.

¹¹ Amoon na fa jigéen ju rab jàppoon, ba feebarloo ko lu war a mat fukki at ak juróom-ñett; dafa xuuge woon te mënul woon a siggi dara.

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

¹² Bi ko Yeesu gisee, mu woo ko ne ko: «Soxna si, sa feebar deñ na.»

¹³He laid his hands on her, and immediately she stood up straight, and glorified God.

¹³ Noonu mu teg ko ay loxoom, soxna sa siggi ca saa sa, di màggal Yàlla.

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 Waaye njiitu jàngu ba mer, ndax li Yeesu fajoon nit ca bésu noflaay ba, mu ne mbooloo ma: «Am na juróom-benni fan yu nit ñi war a liggéey. Kon war ngeen a ñëw faju ci bés yooyu, waaye du ci bésu noflaay bi.»

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 Boroom bi tontu ko: «Naaféq yi! Ndax bésu noflaay bi, kenn ku nekk ci yéen du yiwee ca gétt ga yëkkam walla mbaamam ngir wëggi ko?

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 Jigéen jii nag bokk ci askanu Ibraayma te Seytaane tënk ko fukki at ak juróom-ñett, ndax kenn waru koo yiwi ci bésu noflaay bi?»

¹⁷As he said these things, all his adversaries were disappointed, and all the multitude rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.

¹⁷ Naka la wax loolu, noonam yépp daldi rus, waaye mbooloo mi di bég ci jëf yu yéeme, yi mu doon def yépp.

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

¹⁸ Noonu Yeesu neeti: «Lan la nguuru Yàlla di nirool? Lan laa ko man a mengaleel?

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 Mi ngi mel ni doomu fuddën gu nit jël, ji ko ci toolam. Mu sax, nekk garab, ba picci asamaan ñëw, tàgg ciy caram.»

²⁰ Again he said, “To what shall I compare the Kingdom of God?

²⁰ Mu neeti: «Lan laa man a mengaleek nguuru Yàlla?

²¹ It is like yeast, which a woman took and hid in three measures literally, three sata. 3 sata is about 39 litres or a bit more than a bushel of flour, until it was all leavened.”

²¹ Mi ngi mel ni lawiir bu jigéen jël, jaxase ko ak ñetti andaari fariñ, ba kera tooyal bépp di funki.»

²²He went on his way through cities and villages, teaching, and traveling on to Jerusalem.

²² Yeesoo ngi doon jaar ci ay dëkk yu mag ak yu ndaw, di jàngale te jublu Yerusalem.

²³One said to him, “Lord, are they few who are saved?” He said to them,

²³ Am ku ko ne: «Boroom bi, ndax ñiy mucc ñu néew lay doon?» Yeesu ne leen:

²⁴ “Strive to enter in by the narrow door, for many, I tell you, will seek to enter in, and will not be able.

²⁴ «Defleen seen kem-kàttan, ngir dugg ci bunt bu xat bi, ndaxte maa ngi leen koy wax, ñu bare dinañu jéem a dugg, waaye duñu ko man.

²⁵ When once the master of the house has risen up, and has shut the door, and you begin to stand outside, and to knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us!’ then he will answer and tell you, ‘I don’t know you or where you come from.’

²⁵ Jamono dina ñëw, ju boroom kër gi di jóg, tëj buntam. Dingeen nekk ci biti di fëgg naan: “Boroom bi, ubbil nu!” Dina leen tontu ne: “Xawma fu ngeen bokk.”

²⁶ Then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.’

²⁶ Bu ko defee dingeen tàmbalee naan: “Noo doon bokk di lekk ak di naan, te jàngale nga ci sunuy pénc.”

²⁷ He will say, ‘I tell you, I don’t know where you come from. Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity.’

²⁷ Waaye dina ne: “Nee naa leen xawma fu ngeen bokk. Yéen ñépp soreleen ma, defkati lu bon yi!”

²⁸ There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets, in the Kingdom of God, and yourselves being thrown outside.

²⁸ Foofa dingeen jooy, di yéyu, bu ngeen gisee seeni maam Ibraayma, Isaaxa, Yanqóoba ak yonent yépp ci nguuru Yàlla, te ñu dàq leen ca biti.

²⁹ They will come from the east, west, north, and south, and will sit down in the Kingdom of God.

²⁹ Ay nit dinañu jóge penku ak sowu, nor ak sudd, ñëw, bokk lekk ci ñam, yi Yàlla di joxe ci nguuram.

³⁰ Behold, there are some who are last who will be first, and there are some who are first who will be last.”

³⁰ Noonu ñenn ci ñi mujj ñooy jiituji; te ci ñi jiitu, ñooy mujji.»

³¹On that same day, some Pharisees came, saying to him, “Get out of here, and go away, for Herod wants to kill you.”

³¹ Ca jamono jooja ay Farisen ñëw ca Yeesu ne ko: «Jógeel fii, dem feneen, ndaxte Erodd a ngi lay wut a rey.»

³²He said to them, “Go and tell that fox, ‘Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I complete my mission.

³² Noonu mu ne leen: «Demleen ne bukki boobu ne ko: “Xoolal, maa ngi dàq rab yi tey wéral nit ñi tey ak suba. Ca ñetteelu fan ba, ma àgg fa ma Yàlla jëmale.”

³³ Nevertheless I must go on my way today and tomorrow and the next day, for it can’t be that a prophet perish outside of Jerusalem.’

³³ Waaye fàww ma dox sama itte tey, suba ak gannaaw suba, ndaxte wareesul a reye ab yonent feneen fu dul Yerusalem.

³⁴ “Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that kills the prophets, and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, like a hen gathers her own brood under her wings, and you refused!

³⁴ «Yerusalem, Yerusalem, yaw miy rey yonent yi, tey sànni ay doj ndaw yi, ba ñu dee, aka maa bëggoon a dajale say doom, ni ginaar di uufe ay cuujam te nanguwuleen!

³⁵ Behold, your house is left to you desolate. I tell you, you will not see me, until you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!’” Psalm 118:26

³⁵ Kon nag Yàlla dina bërgël seen kër. Te maa ngi leen koy wax, dungeen ma gisati, ba kera ngeen ne: “Yaw miy ñëw ci turu Boroom bi, ku barkeel nga!”»
