Wolof: New Testament

Matthew

24

1 Jesus went out from the temple, and was going on his way. His disciples came to him to show him the buildings of the temple.
1 Bi Yeesu waxee ba noppi, mu génn ca kër Yàlla ga, dem. Noonu ay taalibeem ñëw ci moom, ngir won ko tabaxi kër Yàlla ga.
2 But he answered them, “You see all of these things, don’t you? Most certainly I tell you, there will not be left here one stone on another, that will not be thrown down.”
2 Waaye mu tontu leen ne: «Du gis ngeen yii yépp? Ci dëgg maa ngi leen koy wax, lii lépp dina daanu, ba doj dootul des ci kaw doj.»
3As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? What is the sign of your coming, and of the end of the age?”
3 Noonu bi nga xamee ne Yeesu toog na ca tundu Oliw ya, taalibeem ya ñëw ci moom cig wet. Ñu ne ko: «Wax nu kañ la loolu di am, te luy tegtale ne, yaa ngi ñëw te àddina di tukki?»
4Jesus answered them, “Be careful that no one leads you astray.
4 Yeesu tontu leen ne: «Moytuleen, bu leen kenn nax.
5 For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will lead many astray.
5 Ndaxte ñu bare dinañu ñëw ci sama tur ne: “Maa di Kirist,” te dinañu nax ñu bare.
6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you aren’t troubled, for all this must happen, but the end is not yet.
6 Dingeen dégg ay xare ak coowi xare; wottuleen, buleen ci tiit, ndaxte loolu war na am, waaye booba muju jamono ji jotagul.
7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be famines, plagues, and earthquakes in various places.
7 Xeet dina jóg, xeex ak weneen xeet, réew xeex ak meneen réew. Dina am ay xiif ak ay yengu-yenguy suuf ci bérab yu bare.
8 But all these things are the beginning of birth pains.
8 Waaye loolu lépp mooy ndoortel metit yi, mel ni jigéen juy matu.
9 Then they will deliver you up to oppression, and will kill you. You will be hated by all of the nations for my name’s sake.
9 Bu boobaa dees na leen jébbale, metital leen, rey leen; te xeet yépp dinañu leen bañ ndax sama tur.
10 Then many will stumble, and will deliver up one another, and will hate one another.
10 Bu loolu amee ñu bare dinañu dàggeeku, di booleente tey bañante.
11 Many false prophets will arise, and will lead many astray.
11 Te it ñu bare ñuy mbubboo turu yonent dinañu feeñ, nax nit ñu bare.
12 Because iniquity will be multiplied, the love of many will grow cold.
12 Te gannaaw lu bon day law, mbëggeelug ñi ëpp dina wàññiku.
13 But he who endures to the end, the same will be saved.
13 Waaye ku muñ ba ca muj ga, mucc.
14 This Good News of the Kingdom will be preached in the whole world for a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.
14 Noonu xebaar bu baax bii ci nguuru Yàlla, dees na ko yégle ci àddina sépp, ngir mu nekk seede ci xeet yépp. Bu loolu amee muju jamono ji jot.
15 “When, therefore, you see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand),
15 «Dina am bés bu li ñuy wax: “Lu araam luy yàqe” dina tege ca bérab bu sell ba. Mooy li ñu doon wax jaarale ko ci yonent Yàlla Dañeel; ku ko jàng, nanga ko xam.
16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.
16 Bu ngeen gisee loolu nag, ku nekk ci biir diiwaanu Yude, nanga daw ca tund ya;
17 Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take out things that are in his house.
17 ku nekk ci kaw taax ma, bul wàcc ngir fab say yëf, ya nekk ci biir kër ga;
18 Let him who is in the field not return back to get his clothes.
18 ku nekk ca tool ba, bul ñibbi ngir fab sa mbubb.
19 But woe to those who are with child and to nursing mothers in those days!
19 Ngalla jigéen ñi ëmb ca bés yooyu, ngalla it ñiy nàmpal!
20 Pray that your flight will not be in the winter, nor on a Sabbath,
20 Ñaanleen nag seen gàddaay bumu nekk jamonoy seddaayu lolli, walla bésu noflaay bi.
21 for then there will be great oppression, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever will be.
21 Ndaxte booba dina am metit wu réy wu musul a am, ba àddina sosoo ak tey, te dootul am mukk.
22 Unless those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been saved. But for the sake of the chosen ones, those days will be shortened.
22 Te bu ñu wàññiwul bés yooyu, kenn du mucc, waaye dees na leen wàññi ndax ñi Yàlla tànn.
23 “Then if any man tells you, ‘Behold, here is the Christ,’ or, ‘There,’ don’t believe it.
23 «Booba nag, bu leen kenn waxee: “Kaayleen gis, Kirist a ngi fi,” mbaa: “Mu nga fale,” buleen ko gëm.
24 For there will arise false christs, and false prophets, and they will show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones.
24 Ndaxte ñi mbubboo turu Kirist ak ñi mbubboo turu yonent dinañu feeñ, di joxe ay firnde yu réy ak ay kéemaan, ba ciy nax sax ñi Yàlla tànn, su loolu manoon a am.
25 “Behold, I have told you beforehand.
25 Wax naa leen ko lu jiitu.
26 If therefore they tell you, ‘Behold, he is in the wilderness,’ don’t go out; ‘Behold, he is in the inner rooms,’ don’t believe it.
26 «Bu ñu leen waxee nag: “Seetleen, mu nga nale ca àll ba,” buleen génn, mbaa ñu ne: “Seetleen mu ngi nii ci biir kër gi,” buleen ko gëm.
27 For as the lightning flashes from the east, and is seen even to the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
27 Ndaxte ni melax di fàqe penku, te lerax ba sowu, noonu la ñëwu Doomu nit ki di mel.
28 For wherever the carcass is, there is where the vultures gather together.
28 Fa médd nekk, fa la tan yiy dajee.
29 But immediately after the oppression of those days, the sun will be darkened, the moon will not give its light, the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken;
29 «Gannaaw metitu bés yooyule nag, ca saa sa jant bi dina lëndëm te weer wi dootul leer; biddiiw yi dinañu fàq, daanu ci asamaan, te kàttani asamaan yi yengu.
30 and then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky. Then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory.
30 Booba firnde ji taxaw, Doomu nit ki feeñ ci asamaan, te xeeti àddina sépp dinañu jooy. Dinañu gis Doomu nit ki di ñëw ci niiri asamaan si, ànd ak kàttan ak ndam lu réy.
31 He will send out his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together his chosen ones from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.
31 Dina yónni ay malaakaam ak baatu liit bu dégtu, ñu dajale ñi mu tànn ci ñeenti xebla yi, fa asamaan dale ba fu mu yem.»
32 “Now from the fig tree learn this parable. When its branch has now become tender, and puts forth its leaves, you know that the summer is near.
32 Yeesu teg ca ne: «Jàngleen misaalu garabu figg ga. Boo xamee ne ay bànqaasam duy nañu, ay xobam sëq, xam ngeen ne nawet jege na.
33 Even so you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
33 Noonu yéen itam bu ngeen gisee loolu lépp, xamleen ne jege na, mu ngi ci bunt bi sax.
34 Most certainly I tell you, this generation will not pass away, until all these things are accomplished.
34 Ci dëgg maa ngi leen koy wax, niti jamono jii duñu wéy te loolu lépp amul.
35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
35 Asamaan ak suuf dinañu wéy, waaye samay wax du wéy mukk.
36 But no one knows of that day and hour, not even the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
36 «Waaye bés booba walla waxtu wa, kenn xamul kañ lay doon; du malaaka yi ci kaw, du sax man Doom ji, waaye Baay bi rekk moo ko xam.
37 “As the days of Noah were, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
37 Ni bési Nóoyin ya, noonu lay mel, bu Doomu nit ki di ñëw.
38 For as in those days which were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ship,
38 Ndaxte ca bés ya jiitu mbënn ma, nit ñaa ngi doon lekk di naan, góor yaa ngi doon takk jabar, tey maye seeni doom, ba bés ba Nóoyin duggee ca gaal ga;
39 and they didn’t know until the flood came, and took them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
39 xalaatuñu woon dara, ba kera ndoxum mbënn ma di dikk, yóbbu leen. Noonu lay mel ci ñëwu Doomu nit ki.
40 Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and one will be left;
40 «Bu boobaa ci ñaar ñu nekk cib tool, dinañu jël kenn ki, bàyyi ki ci des.
41 two women grinding at the mill, one will be taken and one will be left.
41 Ci ñaari jigéen ñuy wol ca ëtt ba, dinañu jël kenn ki, bàyyi ki ci des.
42 Watch therefore, for you don’t know in what hour your Lord comes.
42 Yeewuleen nag, ndaxte xamuleen bés bu seen Boroom di ñëw.
43 But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch of the night the thief was coming, he would have watched, and would not have allowed his house to be broken into.
43 Waaye xamleen lii: bu boroom kër gi xamoon, ci ban waxtu ci guddi la sàcc bi di ñëw, kon dina yeewu te du ko bàyyi, mu toj këram.
44 Therefore also be ready, for in an hour that you don’t expect, the Son of Man will come.
44 Loolu moo tax yéen itam taxawleen jonn, ndaxte Doomu nit ki dina ñëw ci waxtu wu ngeen ko séenuwul.»
45 “Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his lord has set over his household, to give them their food in due season?
45 Yeesu teg ca ne: «Kan moo nekk surga bu takku te teey, bu njaatigeem teg ci waa kër gi, ngir mu leen di dundal ca jamono ja?
46 Blessed is that servant whom his lord finds doing so when he comes.
46 Bu njaatigeem ñëwee te gis muy def noonu, surga boobu dina am ngërëm.
47 Most certainly I tell you that he will set him over all that he has.
47 Ci dëgg maa ngi leen koy wax, njaatige bi dina ko teg ci alalam jépp.
48 But if that evil servant should say in his heart, ‘My lord is delaying his coming,’
48 Waaye bu dee surga bu bon bu naan ci xelam: “Sama njaatige day yéex a ñëw,”
49 and begins to beat his fellow servants, and eat and drink with the drunkards,
49 mu tàmbalee dóor ay bokki surgaam, di lekk te naan ak naankat ya,
50 the lord of that servant will come in a day when he doesn’t expect it, and in an hour when he doesn’t know it,
50 kon njaatige ba dina ñëw ci bés bu mu ko séenuwul ak waxtu wu mu xamul.
51 and will cut him in pieces, and appoint his portion with the hypocrites. There is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.
51 Dina ko dóor ay yar yu metti, jox ko añub naaféq. Foofa dees na fa jooy tey yéyu.
