¹ Mu ne leen ati: «Ci dëgg maa ngi leen koy wax, am na ñi fi taxaw, ñoo xam ne duñu dee, te gisuñu nguuru Yàlla ñëw ak doole.»

¹And he said to them, `Verily I say to you, That there are certain of those standing here, who may not taste of death till they see the reign of God having come in power.`

² Juróom-benni fan gannaaw gi, Yeesu àndoon na ak Piyeer, Saag ak Yowaana, mu yóbbu leen ñoom rekk fu wéet ci tund wu kawe lool. Foofa jëmmam soppiku ci seen kanam;

²And after six days doth Jesus take Peter, and James, and John, and bringeth them up to a high mount by themselves, alone, and he was transfigured before them,

³ ay yéreem di ray-rayi, weex tàll, te fóotukatu àddina mënu leen weexale nii.

³and his garments became glittering, white exceedingly, as snow, so as a fuller upon the earth is not able to whiten [them].

⁴ Noonu ñu gis yonenti Yàlla Iliyas ak Musaa, di wax ak Yeesu.

⁴And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

⁵ Piyeer daldi ne Yeesu: «Kilifa gi, bég nanu ci sunu teew fii; nanu defar ñetti mbaar, benn yaw, benn Musaa ak benn Iliyas.»

⁵And Peter answering saith to Jesus, `Rabbi, it is good to us to be here; and we may make three booths, for thee one, and for Moses one, and for Elijah one:`

⁶ Fekk xamul lu muy wax, ndaxte tiitaange jàpp na leen ñoom ñett ñépp.

⁶for he was not knowing what he might say, for they were greatly afraid.

⁷ Noonu niir muur leen, te baat jibe ca niir wa naan: «Kii mooy sama Doom ji ma bëgg, ci moom laa ame bànneex; dégluleen ko.»

⁷And there came a cloud overshadowing them, and there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, `This is My Son — the Beloved, hear ye him;`

⁸ Ci saa si taalibe yi xool, waaye gisatuñu kenn, ku dul Yeesu rekk.

⁸and suddenly, having looked around, they saw no one any more, but Jesus only with themselves.

⁹ Bi loolu amee ñu wàcc ca tund wa. Bi muy wàcc nag, Yeesu sant leen ne: «Buleen nettali kenn li ngeen gis, ba kera Doomu nit ki dekki na.»

⁹And as they are coming down from the mount, he charged them that they may declare to no one the things that they saw, except when the Son of Man may rise out of the dead;

¹⁰ Ñu téye wax jooju ci seen biir, di sotteente xel, ba xam lu ndekkite looluy tekki.

¹⁰and the thing they kept to themselves, questioning together what the rising out of the dead is.

¹¹ Noonu taalibe yi laaj Yeesu: «Lu tax xutbakat yi di naan, Iliyas moo war a jëkk a ñëw?»

¹¹And they were questioning him, saying, that the scribes say that Elijah it behoveth to come first.

¹² Yeesu ne leen: «Waaw, Iliyas dina jëkk a ñëw, jubbanti lépp. Waaye itam lu tax bind nañu ne, Doomu nit ki war na sonn lu bare, ñu xeeb ko, dëddu ko.

¹²And he answering said to them, `Elijah indeed, having come first, doth restore all things; and how hath it been written concerning the Son of Man, that many things he may suffer, and be set at nought?

¹³ Waaye maa ngi leen di wax ne, Iliyas ñëw na, te def nañu ko la leen neex, ni ko Mbind mi waxe.»

¹³But I say to you, That also Elijah hath come, and they did to him what they willed, as it hath been written of him.`

¹⁴ Bi nga xamee ne Yeesu ñëw na, ba jege taalibe yi, mu gis mbooloo mu bare wër leen, te ay xutbakat di werante ak ñoom.

¹⁴And having come unto the disciples, he saw a great multitude about them, and scribes questioning with them,

¹⁵ Naka la mbooloo mi gis Yeesu, ñu waaru, daldi daw nuyu ko.

¹⁵and immediately, all the multitude having seen him, were amazed, and running near, were saluting him.

¹⁶ Noonu Yeesu laaj leen: «Ci lan ngeen di werante ak ñoom?»

¹⁶And he questioned the scribes, `What dispute ye with them?`

¹⁷ Kenn ci mbooloo mi tontu ko ne: «Kilifa gi, rab jàpp na sama doom, ba luuloo ko. Saa su ko jàppee, daf koy daaneel ci suuf, gémmiñ gi di fuur, muy yéyu, ne jàdd. Ñaan naa say taalibe, ñu dàq ko, waaye mënuñu ko.»

¹⁷and one out of the multitude answering said, `Teacher, I brought my son unto thee, having a dumb spirit;

¹⁹ Yeesu ne leen: «Yéen niti jamono jii, yéen ñi gëmadi, ba kañ laa war a nekk ak yéen, ba kañ laa leen war a muñal? Indil-leen ma xale bi.»

¹⁸and wherever it doth seize him, it doth tear him, and he foameth, and gnasheth his teeth, and pineth away; and I spake to thy disciples that they may cast it out, and they were not able.`

²⁰ Ñu indil ko ko. Bi xale bi gisee Yeesu nag, rab wi sayloo ko ci saa si, mu daanu ci suuf, di xalangu, gémmiñ giy fuur.

¹⁹And he answering him, said, `O generation unbelieving, till when shall I be with you? till when shall I suffer you? bring him unto me;`

²¹ Yeesu laaj baay bi: «Lii kañ la ko dal?» Baay bi ne ko: «Li dale ci nguneem.

²⁰and they brought him unto him, and he having seen him, immediately the spirit tare him, and he, having fallen upon the earth, was wallowing — foaming.

²² Léeg-léeg rab wi bëmëx ko ci safara, léeg-léeg mu bëmëx ko ci ndox, ngir rey ko. Soo ko manee, yërëm nu te xettali nu.»

²¹And he questioned his father, `How long time is it since this came to him?` and he said, `From childhood,

²³ Yeesu tontu ko: «Nga ne: “Soo ko manee,” ku gëm man na lépp.»

²²and many times also it cast him into fire, and into water, that it might destroy him; but if thou art able to do anything, help us, having compassion on us.`

²⁴ Ci saa si baayu xale bi wax ci kaw naan: «Gëm naa, dàqal ma sama ngëmadi.»

²³And Jesus said to him, `If thou art able to believe! all things are possible to the one that is believing;`

²⁵ Yeesu gis nag ne, mbooloo maa ngi daw, wërsi ko, mu daldi gëdd rab wi nag ne ko: «Génnal ci moom, yaw rab wu luu te tëx, te bu ko jàppaat; wax naa la ko.»

²⁴and immediately the father of the child, having cried out, with tears said, `I believe, sir; be helping mine unbelief.`

²⁶ Noonu rab wa daldi yuuxu, sayloo xale bi, génn. Xale bi ne nemm, mel ni ku dee, ba tax ñu bare ne: «Dee na.»

²⁵Jesus having seen that a multitude doth run together, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, `Spirit — dumb and deaf — I charge thee, come forth out of him, and no more thou mayest enter into him;`

²⁷ Waaye Yeesu jàpp loxoom, jógloo ko, xale bi daldi taxaw.

²⁶and having cried, and rent him much, it came forth, and he became as dead, so that many said that he was dead,

²⁸ Bi Yeesu duggee ci kër gi, taalibe yi laaj ko ci pegg: «Lu tax mënunu ko woon a dàq?»

²⁷but Jesus, having taken him by the hand, lifted him up, and he arose.

²⁹ Yeesu tontu leen ne: «Yu mel ni yii, ñaan ci Yàlla rekk a leen di dàq.»

²⁸And he having come into the house, his disciples were questioning him by himself — `Why were we not able to cast it forth?`

³⁰ Bi loolu amee ñu jóge fa, jaar ci diiwaanu Galile, Yeesu bëggul kenn yég ko.

²⁹And he said to them, `This kind is able to come forth with nothing except with prayer and fasting.`

³¹ Ndaxte muy jàngal taalibe yi ne leen: «Dees na jébbal Doomu nit ki ci loxoy nit, te dinañu ko rey, mu dekki ci ñetti fan.»

³⁰And having gone forth thence, they were passing through Galilee, and he did not wish that any may know,

³² Waaye taalibe yi xamuñu lu wax joojuy tekki, te ñemewuñu ko koo laaj.

³¹for he was teaching his disciples, and he said to them, `The Son of Man is being delivered to the hands of men, and they shall kill him, and having been killed the third day he shall rise,`

³³ Bi nga xamee ne egg nañu dëkku Kapernawum, te dugg ci kër gi, Yeesu laaj leen ne: «Lu ngeen doon waxtaane ci yoon wi?»

³²but they were not understanding the saying, and they were afraid to question him.

³⁴ Waaye ñu ne cell, ndaxte ñu ngi fa doon werante, ba xam ku gën a màgg ci ñoom.

³³And he came to Capernaum, and being in the house, he was questioning them, `What were ye reasoning in the way among yourselves?`

³⁵ Noonu Yeesu toog, woo fukki taalibe ya ak ñaar ne leen: «Ku bëgg a jiitu, na topp ci gannaaw ñépp te nekk surgab ñépp.»

³⁴and they were silent, for with one another they did reason in the way who is greater;

³⁶ Bi ko Yeesu waxee, mu jël xale, indi ko ci biir géew gi, ba noppi leewu ko naan:

³⁵and having sat down he called the twelve, and he saith to them, `If any doth will to be first, he shall be last of all, and minister of all.`

³⁷ «Ku nangu xale bu mel ni bii ci sama tur, man mii nga nangu; te ku ma nangu, du man mii sax nga nangu waaye ki ma yónni.»

³⁶And having taken a child, he set him in the midst of them, and having taken him in his arms, said to them,

³⁸ Bi loolu amee Yowaana ne ko: «Kilifa gi, danoo gis nit kuy dàq ay rab ci sa tur, nu tere ko ko, ndax li mu bokkul ci nun.»

³⁷`Whoever may receive one of such children in my name, doth receive me, and whoever may receive me, doth not receive me, but Him who sent me.`

³⁹ Waaye Yeesu tontu ko: «Buleen ko tere, ndaxte kenn mënul a def kéemaan ci sama tur, ba noppi di ma xarab.

³⁸And John did answer him, saying, `Teacher, we saw a certain one in thy name casting out demons, who doth not follow us, and we forbade him, because he doth not follow us.`

⁴⁰ Ku nu sotul, far na ak nun.

³⁹And Jesus said, `Forbid him not, for there is no one who shall do a mighty work in my name, and shall be able readily to speak evil of me:

⁴¹ Ci dëgg maa ngi leen koy wax, koo xam ne kii may na leen kaasu ndox rekk, ndax yéena ngi bokk ci man Kirist, kooku du ñàkk yoolam mukk.

⁴⁰for he who is not against us is for us;

⁴² «Waaye ku yóbbe bàkkaar kenn ci ñi gën a tuuti ñi ma gëm, li gën ci moom, moo di ñu takk doj wu réy ci baatam, sànni ko ci géej.

⁴¹for whoever may give you to drink a cup of water in my name, because ye are Christ`s, verily I say to you, he may not lose his reward;

⁴³ Boo xamee ne sa loxo mu ngi lay yóbbe bàkkaar, dagg ko. Ndaxte ñàkk loxo te tàbbi ci dund gu wóor gi, moo gën ci yaw, nga am ñaari loxo te tàbbi ci safara su dul fey mukk.

⁴²and whoever may cause to stumble one of the little ones believing in me, better is it for him if a millstone is hanged about his neck, and he hath been cast into the sea.

⁴⁵ Te bu la sa tànk di yóbbe bàkkaar, dagg ko. Nga lafañ te tàbbi ci dund gu wóor gi moo gën, nga am ñaari tànk, ñu sànni la ci safara.

⁴³`And if thy hand may cause thee to stumble, cut it off; it is better for thee maimed to enter into the life, than having the two hands, to go away to the gehenna, to the fire — the unquenchable —

⁴⁷ Te bu la sa bët di yóbbe bàkkaar, luqi ko. Nga patt te dugg ci nguuru Yàlla, moo gën ci yaw, nga am ñaari bët, ñu sànni la ci safara.

⁴⁴where there worm is not dying, and the fire is not being quenched.

⁴⁸ Foofa:“Sax ya duñu dee mukk,te safara sa du fey.”

⁴⁵`And if thy foot may cause thee to stumble, cut it off; it is better for thee to enter into the life lame, than having the two feet to be cast to the gehenna, to the fire — the unquenchable —

⁴⁹ Ñépp safara lañu leen di xorome.

⁴⁶where there worm is not dying, and the fire is not being quenched.

⁵⁰ Xorom lu baax la, waaye bu sàppee, nan lañu koy delloo cafkaam? Amleen xorom te ngeen jàmmoo.»

⁴⁷And if thine eye may cause thee to stumble, cast it out; it is better for thee one-eyed to enter into the reign of God, than having two eyes, to be cast to the gehenna of the fire —

⁴⁸where their worm is not dying, and the fire is not being quenched;

⁴⁹for every one with fire shall be salted, and every sacrifice with salt shall be salted.

⁵⁰The salt [is] good, but if the salt may become saltless, in what will ye season [it]? Have in yourselves salt, and have peace in one another.`
