¹ Bi ay fan weesoo, Yeesu dellusi dëkku Kapernawum, mu siiw ne mu ngi ci kër gi.

¹And again he entered into Capernaum, after [some] days, and it was heard that he is in the house,

² Noonu nit ñu bare dajaloo fa, ba kenn amatul foo taxaw, du ci bunt bi sax. Te Yeesu di leen yégal kàddu gi.

²and immediately many were gathered together, so that there was no more room, not even at the door, and he was speaking to them the word.

³ Noonu, am ñu ko indil ku yaramam wépp làggi, ñeenti nit jàppoo ko.

³And they come unto him, bringing a paralytic, borne by four,

⁴ Waaye mënuñu koo jege ndax mbooloo mi. Kon ñu daldi teggi kaw kër gi, di bëtt fa tiim bérab ba Yeesu nekk, daldi yoor basaŋ, ga làggi ba tëdd.

⁴and not being able to come near to him because of the multitude, they uncovered the roof where he was, and, having broken [it] up, they let down the couch on which the paralytic was lying,

⁵ Bi Yeesu gisee seen ngëm, mu ne làggi ba: «Sama waay, baal nañu la say bàkkaar.»

⁵and Jesus having seen their faith, saith to the paralytic, `Child, thy sins have been forgiven thee.`

⁶ Fekk ay xutbakat toog fa, ñu di werante ci seen xel naan:

⁶And there were certain of the scribes there sitting, and reasoning in their hearts,

⁷ «Kii kan la, ba sañ a wax lii; mi ngi sosal Yàlla. Ana ku man a baale bàkkaar yi, ku dul Yàlla doŋŋ?»

⁷`Why doth this one thus speak evil words? who is able to forgive sins except one — God?`

⁸ Waaye Yeesu yég ci xelam li ñuy werante ci seen biir, ne leen: «Lu tax ngeen di werantee nii ci seen xel?

⁸And immediately Jesus, having known in his spirit that they thus reason in themselves, said to them, `Why these things reason ye in your hearts?

⁹ Lan moo gën a yomb, ma wax ku làggi ki: “Baal nañu la say bàkkaar,” walla ma wax ko: “Jógal, jël sa basaŋ, tey dox”?

⁹which is easier, to say to the paralytic, The sins have been forgiven to thee? or to say, Rise, and take up thy couch, and walk?

¹⁰ Waaye xamleen ne, Doomu nit ki am na ci àddina sañ-sañu baale bàkkaar yi.» Ci kaw loolu mu ne làggi ba:

¹⁰`And, that ye may know that the Son of Man hath authority on the earth to forgive sins — (he saith to the paralytic) —

¹¹ «Maa ngi la koy sant, jógal, jël sa basaŋ te nga ñibbi.»

¹¹I say to thee, Rise, and take up thy couch, and go away to thy house;`

¹² Ca saa sa mu jël basaŋam te génn fa kanam ñépp. Noonu ñépp waaru, di màggal Yàlla naan: «Lu mel ni lii, musunu koo gis.»

¹²and he rose immediately, and having taken up the couch, he went forth before all, so that all were astonished, and do glorify God, saying — `Never thus did we see.`

¹³ Gannaaw loolu Yeesu génnaat, aw booru dex ga, mbooloo mépp di ñëw ci moom, mu di leen jàngal.

¹³And he went forth again by the sea, and all the multitude was coming unto him, and he was teaching them,

¹⁴ Bi Yeesu di romb, mu gis ku ñuy wax Lewi, doomu Alfe, toog ca juuti ba. Yeesu ne ko: «Kaay topp ci man.» Mu jóg, daldi topp ci moom.

¹⁴and passing by, he saw Levi of Alpheus sitting at the tax-office, and saith to him, `Be following me,` and he, having risen, did follow him.

¹⁵ Bi loolu amee Yeesu ak i taalibeem di lekk ci kër Lewi, fekk ay juutikat ak ay boroom bàkkaar yu bare di lekkandoo ak ñoom, ndaxte ñu bare ci ñoom a ko toppoon.

¹⁵And it came to pass, in his reclining (at meat) in his house, that many tax-gatherers and sinners were reclining (at meat) with Jesus and his disciples, for there were many, and they followed him.

¹⁶ Waaye xutbakat yi bokk ci Farisen yi, bi ñu gisee ne, dafa bokk lekk ak ay juutikat ak ay boroom bàkkaar, ñu daldi laaj taalibe yi: «Lu tax muy lekkandoo ak ay juutikat ak ay boroom bàkkaar?»

¹⁶And the scribes and the Pharisees, having seen him eating with the tax-gatherers and sinners, said to his disciples, `Why — that with the tax-gatherers and sinners he doth eat and drink?`

¹⁷ Noonu Yeesu dégg ko, mu ne leen: «Ñi wér soxlawuñu fajkat, ñi wéradi ñoo ko soxla; ñëwuma woo ñi jub, waaye bàkkaarkat yi laay woo.»

¹⁷And Jesus, having heard, saith to them, `They who are strong have no need of a physician, but they who are ill; I came not to call righteous men, but sinners to reformation.`

¹⁸ Taalibey Yaxya nag ak Farisen yi daan nañu woor. Ñu ñëw nag fi Yeesu ne ko: «Lu tax taalibey Yaxya yi ak yu Farisen yi di woor, te say taalibe duñu woor?»

¹⁸And the disciples of John and those of the Pharisees were fasting, and they come and say to him, `Wherefore do the disciples of John and those of the Pharisees fast, and thy disciples do not fast?`

¹⁹ Yeesu tontu leen: «Ndax gan, yi ñëw cig céet, dinañu woor, fekk boroom céet gi ànd ak ñoom? Duñu woor, li feek boroom céet gaa ngi ànd ak ñoom.

¹⁹And Jesus said to them, `Are the sons of the bride-chamber able, while the bridegroom is with them, to fast? so long time as they have the bridegroom with them they are not able to fast;

²⁰ Waaye bés yaa ngi ñëw, yu ñuy jële boroom céet gi; bés boobaa nag dinañu woor.

²⁰but days shall come when the bridegroom may be taken from them, and then they shall fast — in those days.

²¹ «Kenn du daax mbubb mu màggat ak sekkit wu bees; ndaxte sekkit wi day ñoddi mbubb mi, te xottiku bi gën a yaatu.

²¹`And no one a patch of undressed cloth doth sew on an old garment, and if not — the new filling it up doth take from the old and the rent doth become worse;

²² Te kenn du def biiñ bu bees ci mbuusi der yu màggat. Lu ko moy, biiñ bi day toj mbuus yi, ba mbuus yi yàqu, ak biiñ bi tuuru. Waaye biiñ bu bees, ci mbuus yu bees lañu koy def.»

²²and no one doth put new wine into old skins, and if not — the new wine doth burst the skins, and the wine is poured out, and the skins will be destroyed; but new wine into new skins is to be put.`

²³ Amoon na benn bésu noflaay Yeesu jaar ciy tool yu ñor. Bi ñuy dem nag, ay taalibeem daldi fàq ay gub.

²³And it came to pass — he is going along on the sabbaths through the corn-fields — and his disciples began to make a way, plucking the ears,

²⁴ Noonu Farisen ya ne Yeesu: «Gisal, lu tax say taalibe di def lu jaaduwul ci bésu noflaay bi?»

²⁴and the Pharisees said to him, `Lo, why do they on the sabbaths that which is not lawful?`

²⁵ Yeesu tontu leen: «Ndax jànguleen la Daawuda defoon, ba mu amee soxla te xiif, moom ak ña mu àndaloon?

²⁵And he said to them, `Did ye never read what David did, when he had need and was hungry, he and those with him?

²⁶ Xanaa yéguleen li amoon ci bési Abiyatar saraxalekat bu mag bi, ni Daawuda dugge woon ca kër Yàlla ga, lekk mburu ya ñu jébbal Yàlla, jox ci it ña mu àndaloon; fekk jaaduwul kenn lekk ko, ku dul saraxalekat?»

²⁶how he went into the house of God, (at `Abiathar the chief priest,`) and the loaves of the presentation did eat, which it is not lawful to eat, except to the priests, and he gave also to those who were with him?`

²⁷ Yeesu dellu ne leen: «Yàlla sàkkul nit ngir bésu noflaay bi, waaye sàkk na bésu noflaay ngir nit.

²⁷And he said to them, `The sabbath for man was made, not man for the sabbath,

²⁸ Noonu Doomu nit ki mooy boroom bésu noflaay bi.»

²⁸so that the son of man is lord also of the sabbath.`
