1 Bi Yeesu waxee la mu naroon a wax lépp ca kanamu mbooloo ma, mu daldi dem Kapernawum.
1And when he completed all his sayings in the ears of the people, he went into Capernaum;
2 Amoon na fa njiitu xare. Njiit la nag, surgaam bu mu bëggoon lool dafa feebaroon, bay bëgg a dee.
2and a certain centurion`s servant being ill, was about to die, who was much valued by him,
3 Bi mu déggee mbiri Yeesu, mu yónni ca moom ay Yawut, di magi dëkk ba, ngir ñaan ko, mu ñëw faj surga ba.
3and having heard about Jesus, he sent unto him elders of the Jews, beseeching him, that having come he might thoroughly save his servant.
4 Bi magi dëkk ba agsee ca Yeesu, ñu sàkku ci moom ndimbal, ñaan ko: «Ki nu yónni ci yaw de, yelloo na ndimbal,
4And they, having come near unto Jesus, were calling upon him earnestly, saying — `He is worthy to whom thou shalt do this,
5 ndaxte sopp na sunu xeet te moo nu tabaxal sax sunu jàngu.»
5for he doth love our nation, and the synagogue he did build to us.`
6 Noonu Yeesu daldi ànd ak ñoom. Waaye bi ñuy bëgg a agsi ca kër ga, njiit la yebal ay xaritam ngir ñu wax Yeesu ne: «Sang bi, bul sonal sa bopp, ndaxte yeyoowuma nga dugg sama kër.
6And Jesus was going on with them, and now when he is not far distant from the house the centurion sent unto him friends, saying to him, `Sir, be not troubled, for I am not worthy that under my roof thou mayest enter;
7 Looloo tax it ma xalaat ne, awma darajay gatandu la. Waxal genn kàddu rekk, te sama surga dina wér.
7wherefore not even myself thought I worthy to come unto thee, but say in a word, and my lad shall be healed;
8 Ndaxte man itam maa ngi nekk ci ndigal, te ame naa ay xarekat ci sama ndigal. Su ma nee kii: “Demal,” mu dem. Mbaa ma ne keneen ki: “Ñëwal,” mu ñëw. Te su ma nee sama jaam: “Defal lii,” mu def ko.»
8for I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers, and I say to this [one], Go, and he goeth; and to another, Be coming, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doth [it].`
9 Bi ko Yeesu déggee, mu waaru. Noonu mu walbatiku ca mbooloo, ma topp ci moom, ne leen: «Maa ngi leen koy wax, ci bànni Israyil sax, musuma cee gis ku gëme nii.»
9And having heard these things Jesus wondered at him, and having turned to the multitude following him, he said, `I say to you, not even in Israel so much faith did I find;`
10 Noonu ndaw ya daldi dellu ca kër ga. Bi ñu agsee, ñu gis ne surga ba wér na.
10and those sent, having turned back to the house, found the ailing servant in health.
11 Yàggul dara Yeesu dem ci dëkk bu ñuy wax Nayin. Taalibeem yi ak mbooloo mu bare ànd ak moom.
11And it came to pass, on the morrow, he was going on to a city called Nain, and there were going with him many of his disciples, and a great multitude,
12 Bi muy agsi ca buntu dëkk ba, fekk ñuy rob néew boo xam ne kenn rekk la woon ci ndeyam, ji jëkkëram faatu woon. Te mbooloo mu bare ca dëkk ba di gunge soxna sa.
12and as he came nigh to the gate of the city, then, lo, one dead was being carried forth, an only son of his mother, and she a widow, and a great multitude of the city was with her.
13 Bi ko Boroom ba gisee, mu daldi koy yërëm ne ko: «Bul jooyati.»
13And the Lord having seen her, was moved with compassion towards her, and said to her, `Be not weeping;`
14 Mu jegeñsi, laal jaat ga, ñi ko jàppoo taxaw. Mu ne: «Waxambaane wi, jógal, ndigal la.»
14and having come near, he touched the bier, and those bearing [it] stood still, and he said, `Young man, to thee I say, Arise;`
15 Noonu nit ka dee woon jóg toog, tàmbalee wax. Yeesu delloo ko yaay ja.
15and the dead sat up, and began to speak, and he gave him to his mother;
16 Ñépp tiit, bay màggal Yàlla, di wax naan: «Yonent bu mag feeñ na ci sunu biir! Yàlla wallusi na mbooloom!»
16and fear took hold of all, and they were glorifying God, saying — `A great prophet hath risen among us,` and — `God did look upon His people.`
17 La ñu wax ci mbiri Yeesu daldi siiw ca réewu Yawut ya ak la ko wër yépp.
17And the account of this went forth in all Judea about him, and in all the region around.
18 Taalibey Yaxya ya nettali mbir yooyu yépp seen kilifa. Noonu Yaxya woo ñaar ci ay taalibeem,
18And the disciples of John told him about all these things,
19 yónni leen ci Boroom bi, ngir laaj ko: «Ndax yaw yaa di Ki war a ñëw, walla danoo war a xaar keneen?»
19and John having called near a certain two of his disciples, sent unto Jesus, saying, `Art thou he who is coming, or for another do we look?`
20 Bi taalibe ya agsee ca Yeesu, ñu ne ko: «Yaxya moo nu yebal, nu laaj ndax yaa di Ki waroon a ñëw, walla danuy xaar keneen?»
20And having come near to him, the men said, `John the Baptist sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he who is coming, or for another do we look?`
21 Ca waxtu woowa Yeesu wéral nit ñu bare ci seeni feebar ak ci seeni metit, di dàq ay rab tey gisloo ay gumba.
21And in that hour he cured many from sicknesses, and plagues, and evil spirits, and to many blind he granted sight.
22 Noonu mu tontu ndaw ya ne leen: «Demleen nettali Yaxya li ngeen gis te dégg ko. Gumba yaa ngi gis, lafañ yiy dox, gaana yi wér, tëx yiy dégg, ñi dee di dekki, te ñi woyoflu ñu ngi dégg xebaar bu baax bi.
22And Jesus answering said to them, `Having gone on, report to John what ye saw and heard, that blind men do see again, lame do walk, lepers are cleansed, deaf do hear, dead are raised, poor have good news proclaimed;
23 Yaw mi sa ngëm yolomul ndax man, barkeel nga.»
23and happy is he whoever may not be stumbled in me.`
24 Bi ndawi Yaxya yi demee, Yeesu daldi wax ak mbooloo ma ci mbirum Yaxya ne leen: «Lu ngeen seeti woon ca màndiŋ ma? Xanaa barax buy jaayu ci ngelaw li?
24And the messengers of John having gone away, he began to say unto the multitudes concerning John: `What have ye gone forth to the wilderness to look on? a reed by the wind shaken?
25 Kon lu ngeen seeti woon nag? Nit ku sol yére yu rafet? Waaye ñiy soloo noonu, tey dund dund gu neex ñu ngi dëkk ci këri buur.
25but what have ye gone forth to see? a man in soft garments clothed? lo, they in splendid apparellings, and living in luxury, are in the houses of kings!
26 Kon lu ngeen seeti woon? Yonent? Waaw, wax naa leen ne, ëpp na yonent.
26`But what have ye gone forth to see? a prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much more than a prophet:
27 Yaxya male moo di ki ñu waxoon ci Mbind mi naan:“Maa ngi yónni sama ndaw, mu jiitu la,te xàllal la yoon ci sa kanam.”
27this is he concerning whom it hath been written, Lo, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee;
28 Maa ngi leen koy wax, ci li jigéen jur, ku sut Yaxya musul a feeñ. Waaye ba tey ki gën a ndaw ci nguuru Yàlla moo ko sut.»
28for I say to you, a greater prophet, among those born of women, than John the Baptist there is not; but the least in the reign of God is greater than he.`
29 Nit ñépp ñi doon déglu Yeesu, ba ci juutikat yi sax, dëggal nañu ne Yàlla ku jub la, ndaxte nangu nañu Yaxya sóob leen ci ndox.
29And all the people having heard, and the tax-gatherers, declared God righteous, having been baptized with the baptism of John,
30 Waaye Farisen ya ak xutbakat ya dañoo bañ, mu sóob leen ci ndox, di wone noonu ne, gàntu nañu li leen Yàlla bëggaloon.
30but the Pharisees, and the lawyers, the counsel of God did put away for themselves, not having been baptized by him.
31 Yeesu tegaat ca ne: «Kon lan laa man a mengaleel niti jamono jii? Lan lañuy nirool?
31And the Lord said, `To what, then, shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?
32 Ñu ngi nirook xale yu toog ca pénc ma tey woowante naan:“Liital nanu leen ak toxoro, te fecculeen,woyal nanu leen woyi dëj, te jooyuleen.”
32they are like to children, to those sitting in a market-place, and calling one to another, and saying, We piped to you, and ye did not dance, we mourned to you, and ye did not weep!
33 Ndaxte Yaxya feeñ na, lekkul mburu, naanul biiñ, ngeen daldi ne: “Dafa ànd ak rab.”
33`For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and ye say, He hath a demon;
34 Gannaaw gi nag Doomu nit ki ñëw na, lekk, naan, ngeen daldi ne: “Kii daal bëgg na lekk, di naan biiñ, tey xaritoo ak ay juutikat ak ay boroom bàkkaar.”
34the Son of Man came eating and drinking, and ye say, Lo, a man, a glutton, and a wine drinker, a friend of tax-gatherers and sinners;
35 Waaye li xam-xamu Yàlla di jur, mooy firndeel ne dëgg la.»
35and the wisdom was justified from all her children.`
36 Amoon na ab Farisen bu ñaan Yeesu, mu ñëw lekkandoo ak moom. Yeesu dem kër waa ja, toog ca lekkukaay.
36And a certain one of the Pharisees was asking him that he might eat with him, and having gone into the house of the Pharisee he reclined (at meat),
37 Fekk amoon na ca dëkk ba jigéen juy moy Yàlla. Bi mu yégee ne, Yeesoo ngay lekk ca kër Farisen ba, mu dem, yóbbaale njaq lu ñu defare doj wu ñuy wax albaatar te def latkoloñ.
37and lo, a woman in the city, who was a sinner, having known that he reclineth (at meat) in the house of the Pharisee, having provided an alabaster box of ointment,
38 Bi jigéen ja agsee, mu taxaw ca gannaaw tànki Yeesu, di jooy. Noonu ay rangooñam tooyal tànki Yeesu, jigéen ja di leen fomp ak kawaram, di leen fóon te ciy sotti latkoloñ ja.
38and having stood behind, beside his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with the tears, and with the hairs of her head she was wiping, and was kissing his feet, and was anointing with the ointment.
39 Naka la Farisen, bi woo woon Yeesu ci këram, gis loolu, mu wax ci xelam naan: «Bu nit kii doonoon yonent, kon dina xam kuy jigéen ji koy laal ak ni mu nekke bàkkaarkat.»
39And the Pharisee who did call him, having seen, spake within himself, saying, `This one, if he were a prophet, would have known who and of what kind [is] the woman who doth touch him, that she is a sinner.`
40 Yeesu ne ca tonn, daldi ne Farisen ba: «Simoŋ, am na lu ma la war a wax.» Simoŋ ne ko: «Waxal, kilifa gi.»
40And Jesus answering said unto him, `Simon, I have something to say to thee;` and he saith, `Teacher, say on.`
41 Yeesu ne ko: «Da fee amoon ñaari nit ñu ameel bor benn leblekat. Kenn kaa ngi ko ameel téeméeri junni ci xaalis, ki ci des fukki junni.
41`Two debtors were to a certain creditor; the one was owing five hundred denaries, and the other fifty;
42 Waaye kenn ci ñoom mënu koo fey. Noonu mu baal leen bor ya. Ci ñaar ñooñu nag kan moo ko ciy gën a bëgg?»
42and they not having [wherewith] to give back, he forgave both; which then of them, say thou, will love him more?`
43 Simoŋ tontu ne ko: «Xanaa ki ñu baal bor bi gën a bare.» Yeesu ne ko: «Àtte nga dëgg,»
43And Simon answering said, `I suppose that to whom he forgave the more;` and he said to him, `Rightly thou didst judge.`
44 daldi walbatiku ca jigéen ja, ne Simoŋ: «Ndax gis nga jigéen jii? Dugg naa sa kër, te joxewuloo ndox, ngir raxas samay tànk. Waaye moom, raxas na samay tànk ak ay rangooñam, ba noppi fomp leen ak kawaram.
44And having turned unto the woman, he said to Simon, `Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house; water for my feet thou didst not give, but this woman with tears did wet my feet, and with the hairs of her head did wipe;
45 Bi ma agsee, fóonuloo ma, waaye moom, bi ma duggee ba léegi tàyyiwul ci di fóon samay tànk.
45a kiss to me thou didst not give, but this woman, from what [time] I came in, did not cease kissing my feet;
46 Defuloo diw ci sama bopp, waaye moom, sotti na latkoloñ ci samay tànk.
46with oil my head thou didst not anoint, but this woman with ointment did anoint my feet;
47 Moo tax ma di la wax ne, su wonee mbëggeel gu réye nii, dafa fekk ñu baal ko bàkkaaram yu bare. Waaye ki mbëggeelam néew dafa fekk ñu baal ko lu tuuti.»
47therefore I say to thee, her many sins have been forgiven, because she did love much; but to whom little is forgiven, little he doth love.`
48 Yeesu daldi ne jigéen ja: «Baal nañu la say bàkkaar.»
48And he said to her, `Thy sins have been forgiven;`
49 Noonu ñi doon lekkandoo ak moom di wax ci seen xel naan: «Kii am sañ-sañu baale bàkkaar mooy kan?»
49and those reclining with him (at meat) began to say within themselves, `Who is this, who also doth forgive sins?`
50 Waaye Yeesu ne jigéen ja: «Sa ngëm musal na la. Demal ci jàmm.»
50and he said unto the woman, `Thy faith have saved thee, be going on to peace.`
