1 Yeesu waxaat ay taalibeem ne leen: «Fiir yuy yóbbe nit bàkkaar mënta ñàkk, waaye toroxte dal na ki koy lal.
1He said to the disciples, “It is impossible that no occasions of stumbling should come, but woe to him through whom they come!
2 Ñu takk doj wu réy ci baatam, sànni ko ci géej moo gën ci moom muy daaneel ci bàkkaar kenn ci ñi gën a tuuti ci ñii.
2 It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, rather than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble.
3 Wottuleen seen bopp. «Bu sa mbokk tooñee, yedd ko. Bu réccoo, baal ko.
3 Be careful. If your brother sins against you, rebuke him. If he repents, forgive him.
4 Te su la tooñee juróom-ñaari yoon ci bés bi, te ñëw ci yaw juróom-ñaari yoon ne la: “Tuub naa ko,” nanga ko baal.»
4 If he sins against you seven times in the day, and seven times returns, saying, ‘I repent,’ you shall forgive him.”
5 Ndaw ya wax Boroom bi ne ko: «Yokkal sunu ngëm.»
5The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith.”
6 Boroom bi tontu ne: «Su ngeen amee ngëm gu tuuti sax niw peppu fuddën, kon dingeen man a ne garab gii: “Buddeekul, dem jëmbëtu ca géej ga,” te dina def li ngeen wax.
6The Lord said, “If you had faith like a grain of mustard seed, you would tell this sycamore tree, ‘Be uprooted, and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.
7 «Kan ci yéen bu amoon surga bu beyi walla bu sàmmi ba ñëw, ndax dafa ko naa: “Kaay lekk.”
7 But who is there among you, having a servant plowing or keeping sheep, that will say, when he comes in from the field, ‘Come immediately and sit down at the table,’
8 Déedéet. Xanaa kay da ko naan: “Defaral ma réer bi. Takkul te tibbal ma, ba ma lekk te naan, ba noppi nga door a lekk te naan.”
8 and will not rather tell him, ‘Prepare my supper, clothe yourself properly, and serve me, while I eat and drink. Afterward you shall eat and drink’?
9 Li surga ba topp ndigal, ndax tax na mu yelloo ngërëm? Déedéet.
9 Does he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded? I think not.
10 Noonu yéen itam bu ngeen toppee li ñu leen sant lépp ba noppi, dangeen a war ne: “Ay surga rekk lanu. Sunu warugar lanu def.”»
10 Even so you also, when you have done all the things that are commanded you, say, ‘We are unworthy servants. We have done our duty.’”
11 Bi muy dem Yerusalem ba tey, Yeesu jaar ci dig wiy xaajale Samari ak Galile.
11It happened as he was on his way to Jerusalem, that he was passing along the borders of Samaria and Galilee.
12 Bi muy jub benn dëkk, fukki gaana ñëw, dogale ko. Ñu taxaw dand ko, di wax ca kaw naan:
12As he entered into a certain village, ten men who were lepers met him, who stood at a distance.
13 «Yeesu, kilifa gi, yërëm nu!»
13They lifted up their voices, saying, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”
14 Naka la leen Yeesu di gis, naan leen: «Demleen won seen bopp saraxalekat ya.» Bi ñuy dem, ñu daldi set.
14When he saw them, he said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” It happened that as they went, they were cleansed.
15 Kenn ci ñoom gis ne wér na, daldi dëpp, di màggal Yàlla ak baat bu xumb.
15One of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, glorifying God with a loud voice.
16 Mu dëpp jëwam ca tànki Yeesu, di ko gërëm. Fekk nitu Samari la woon.
16He fell on his face at Jesus’ feet, giving him thanks; and he was a Samaritan.
17 Noonu Yeesu daldi ne: «Xanaa du fukk yépp a wér? Ana juróom-ñeent ña nag?
17Jesus answered, “Weren’t the ten cleansed? But where are the nine?
18 Amul kenn ci ñoom ku ñëw gërëm Yàlla ku dul doxandéem bii!»
18 Were there none found who returned to give glory to God, except this stranger?”
19 Noonu Yeesu ne ko: «Jógal dem; sa ngëm faj na la.»
19Then he said to him, “Get up, and go your way. Your faith has healed you.”
20 Farisen yi laaj Yeesu ne ko: «Kañ la Yàlla di tëral nguuram?» Mu tontu leen ne: «Bu Yàlla di wàcce nguuram ci nit ñi, kenn du ko man a teg bët.
20Being asked by the Pharisees when the Kingdom of God would come, he answered them, “The Kingdom of God doesn’t come with observation;
21 Duñu man a wax it ne: “Xool-leen, mi ngi fii,” walla: “Ma nga fale,” ndaxte nguuru Yàlla wàcc na ci seen biir.»
21 neither will they say, ‘Look, here!’ or, ‘Look, there!’ for behold, the Kingdom of God is within you.”
22 Noonu mu ne taalibe ya: «Jamono dina ñëw, fu ngeen di bëgg a gis su doon sax benn fan ci jamono ju Doomu nit ki di ñëw, waaye dungeen ko gis.
22He said to the disciples, “The days will come, when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it.
23 Dees na leen ne: “Mi ngi fii!” walla: “Ma nga fale!” Buleen dem, mbaa ngeen di leen topp.
23 They will tell you, ‘Look, here!’ or ‘Look, there!’ Don’t go away, nor follow after them,
24 Ndaxte ni melax naan ràyye ci asamaan, di leeral gii wet, ba ca gee, noonu it la Doomu nit ki di mel ci bésam.
24 for as the lightning, when it flashes out of the one part under the sky, shines to the other part under the sky; so will the Son of Man be in his day.
25 Waaye balaa booba fàww mu sonn lool te niti jamono jii dëddu ko.
25 But first, he must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.
26 «La xewoon ca bési Nóoyin, dina xewaat ci bési Doomu nit ki.
26 As it happened in the days of Noah, even so will it be also in the days of the Son of Man.
27 Nit ñaa ngi doon lekk ak di naan, di jël jabar ak a séyi, ba bés ba Nóoyin duggee ca gaal ga. Noonu mbënn ma ñëw, rey leen ñoom ñépp.
27 They ate, they drank, they married, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ship, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
28 «Dina mel it ni la xewoon ca bési Lóot. Nit ñaa ngi doon lekk ak di naan, di jënd ak di jaay, di ji ak di tabax.
28 Likewise, even as it happened in the days of Lot: they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built;
29 Waaye bés ba Lóot génnee Sodom, Yàlla tawloo safara ak tamarax, rey leen ñoom ñépp.
29 but in the day that Lot went out from Sodom, it rained fire and sulfur from the sky, and destroyed them all.
30 Noonu lay mel, bés bu Doomu nit kiy feeñ.
30 It will be the same way in the day that the Son of Man is revealed.
31 «Ca bés boobee ku nekk ca kaw kër ga te ay bagaasam nekk ca biir, bumu wàcc jëli leen. Te it ku nekk ca tool ya, bu mu ñibbi.
31 In that day, he who will be on the housetop, and his goods in the house, let him not go down to take them away. Let him who is in the field likewise not turn back.
32 Fàttalikuleen jabaru Lóot!
32 Remember Lot’s wife!
33 Kuy wut a rawale sa bakkan, dinga ko ñàkk, waaye ku ko ñàkk, dinga dund.
33 Whoever seeks to save his life loses it, but whoever loses his life preserves it.
34 Maa ngi leen koy wax: ca jamono jooju, ñaar dinañu bokk a tëdd guddi, dees na yóbbu kenn ki, bàyyi ka ca des.
34 I tell you, in that night there will be two people in one bed. The one will be taken, and the other will be left.
35 Ñaari jigéen dinañu wolandoo, dees na yóbbu kenn ci, bàyyi ka ca des.»
35 There will be two grinding grain together. One will be taken, and the other will be left.”
37 Taalibe yi ne Yeesu: «Fu loolu di xewe, Boroom bi?» Yeesu tontu leen ne: «Fa médd nekk, la tan yiy dajee.»
36 Some Greek manuscripts add: “Two will be in the field: the one taken, and the other left.”
37They, answering, asked him, “Where, Lord?” He said to them, “Where the body is, there will the vultures also be gathered together.”
