¹ Gannaaw loolu Yeesu di dem ca ay dëkk yu mag ak yu ndaw, di waaraate ak di yégle xebaar bu baax bi jëm ci nguuru Yàlla. Fukki taalibe ya ak ñaar ànd ak moom,

¹It happened soon afterwards, that he went about through cities and villages, preaching and bringing the good news of the Kingdom of God. With him were the twelve,

² ak ay jigéen yu mu teqale woon ak rab te jële leen ci seeni wopp, ñu di: Maryaama, mi ñuy wooye Maryaamam Magdala, mi Yeesu tàggale woon ak juróom-ñaari rab;

²and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary who was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out;

³ Sànn, jabaru ku ñuy wax Kusa, mi doon wottu alalu Erodd; ak Susànn ak ñeneen jigéen. Jigéen ñooñu ñoo doon joxe seen alal, ngir dimbali Yeesu ak ay taalibeem.

³and Joanna, the wife of Chuzas, Herod’s steward; Susanna; and many others; who served them TR reads “him” instead of “them” from their possessions.

⁴ Dëkk ak dëkk nit ña di fa jóge jëm ca Yeesu, ba mbooloo mu bare dajaloo, mu wax leen léeb wii:

⁴When a great multitude came together, and people from every city were coming to him, he spoke by a parable.

⁵ «Dafa amoon beykat bu demoon jiyi. Bi muy saaw toolam nag, lenn ci pepp mi wadd ci kaw yoon wi, nit ñi joggi ci, picci asamaan lekk ko lépp.

⁵ “The farmer went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some fell along the road, and it was trampled under foot, and the birds of the sky devoured it.

⁶ Leneen wadd ci bérab bu bare ay doj. Naka la sax rekk, daldi wow, ndaxte suuf si tooyul woon.

⁶ Other seed fell on the rock, and as soon as it grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture.

⁷ Leneen nag wadd ci biir ay xaaxaam, ñu saxandoo, xaaxaam ya tanc ko.

⁷ Other fell amid the thorns, and the thorns grew with it, and choked it.

⁸ Li ci des dal ci suuf su baax, sax, nangu ba meññ téeméeri yoon lu ëpp la mu ji woon.» Gannaaw loolu Yeesu wax ak kàddu gu dëgër ne: «Déglul bu baax, yaw mi am ay nopp.»

⁸ Other fell into the good ground, and grew, and brought forth fruit one hundred times.” As he said these things, he called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”

⁹ Taalibey Yeesu yi laaj ko lu léeb woowu di tekki.

⁹Then his disciples asked him, “What does this parable mean?”

¹⁰ Mu tontu ne leen: «May nañu leen, ngeen xam mbóoti nguuru Yàlla, waaye ñi ci des, dama leen di wax ci ay léeb. Noonu la, ngir:“Ñuy xool te duñu man a gis,di dégg te duñu man a xam.”

¹⁰He said, “To you it is given to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of God, but to the rest in parables; that ‘seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.’ Isaiah 6:9

¹¹ «Lii la léebu beykat bi di tekki. Kàddug Yàlla mooy jiwu wi.

¹¹ Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

¹² Ki féete ci yoon wi mooy ki dégg. Gannaaw gi, Seytaane dafay ñëw, këf kàddu, gi ñu def ci xolam, ngir mu bañ a gëm te Yàlla musal ko.

¹² Those along the road are those who hear, then the devil comes, and takes away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved.

¹³ Ki nekk ci bérab bu bare ay doj, mooy ki dégg kàddu gi, ba noppi nangu ko ak mbég. Waaye wax ji saxul ci moom. Dina gëm ab diir, waaye bu nattu yi agsee, mu daldi dàggeeku.

¹³ Those on the rock are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; but these have no root, who believe for a while, then fall away in time of temptation.

¹⁴ Ki jot ci jiwu wi ci xaaxaam yi mooy ki dégg kàddu gi, waaye nes tuuti soxla yi ak alal ak bànneexi àddina tanc ko, ba du àgg cig mat.

¹⁴ That which fell among the thorns, these are those who have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to maturity.

¹⁵ Ki jot ci jiwu wi ci suuf su baax si nag, mooy ki dégg kàddu gi te denc ko ci xol bu baax bu gore, te muñ ba jur njariñ.

¹⁵ That in the good ground, these are such as in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it tightly, and bring forth fruit with patience.

¹⁶ «Kenn du taal làmp, dëpp ci leget, walla mu di ko def ci ron lal. Daf koy wékk, ngir mu leeral ñiy dugg.

¹⁶ “No one, when he has lit a lamp, covers it with a container, or puts it under a bed; but puts it on a stand, that those who enter in may see the light.

¹⁷ Amul dara luy kumpa lu ñu dul siiwal bés, walla lu làqu lu ñu dul feeñal, ba mu ne fàŋŋ.

¹⁷ For nothing is hidden, that will not be revealed; nor anything secret, that will not be known and come to light.

¹⁸ Seetleen bu baax, ni ngeen di dégloo kàddu gi. Ku am, dees na la dollil, waaye ku amul, dees na nangu sax li nga xalaatoon ne, am nga ko ba noppi.»

¹⁸ Be careful therefore how you hear. For whoever has, to him will be given; and whoever doesn’t have, from him will be taken away even that which he thinks he has.”

¹⁹ Noonu ndeyu Yeesu ak ay rakkam ñëw seetsi ko, waaye mënuñu woon a agsi ci moom, ndaxte nit ña dañoo bare.

¹⁹His mother and brothers came to him, and they could not come near him for the crowd.

²⁰ Am ku ko yégal ne: «Sa yaay ak say rakk ñu ngi nii taxaw ci biti, bëgg laa gis.»

²⁰It was told him by some saying, “Your mother and your brothers stand outside, desiring to see you.”

²¹ Waaye mu daldi leen ne: «Sama yaay ak samay rakk, ñooy ñiy déglu kàddug Yàlla, te di ko topp.»

²¹But he answered them, “My mother and my brothers are these who hear the word of God, and do it.”

²² Benn bés Yeesu àndoon na ak ay taalibeem, dugg ci gaal. Mu ne leen: «Nanu jàll dex gi.» Noonu ñu dem.

²²Now it happened on one of those days, that he entered into a boat, himself and his disciples, and he said to them, “Let’s go over to the other side of the lake.” So they launched out.

²³ Bi ñuy dem nag, Yeesu daldi nelaw. Ngelaw lu am doole daldi ñëw, yengal dex gi, gaal gi fees ak ndox, ba ñu bëgg a suux.

²³But as they sailed, he fell asleep. A wind storm came down on the lake, and they were taking on dangerous amounts of water.

²⁴ Noonu taalibe yi jegesi Yeesu, yee ko ne: «Kilifa gi, kilifa gi, nu ngiy dee!» Ci kaw loolu Yeesu jóg, daldi gëdd ngelaw li ak duus yi. Lépp dal, ba ne nemm.

²⁴They came to him, and awoke him, saying, “Master, master, we are dying!” He awoke, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water, and they ceased, and it was calm. See Psalm 107:29

²⁵ Yeesu ne taalibe yi: «Ana seen ngëm?» Ñu daldi tiit te waaru, naan ci seen biir: «Kii moo di kan? Mi ngi jox ndigal ngelaw li ak ndox mi, ñu koy déggal.»

²⁵He said to them, “Where is your faith?” Being afraid they marveled, saying one to another, “Who is this, then, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?”

²⁶ Noonu ñu teer ca diiwaanu waa Serasa, fa jàkkaarloo ak diiwaanu Galile.

²⁶They arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is opposite Galilee.

²⁷ Bi Yeesu di wàcc ca gaal ga, ku rab jàpp ca waa dëkk ba ñëw, kar ko. Yàgg na def yaramu neen te dëkkul ca kër, waaye ca sëg ya lay nekk.

²⁷When Jesus stepped ashore, a certain man out of the city who had demons for a long time met him. He wore no clothes, and didn’t live in a house, but in the tombs.

²⁸ Bi mu gisee Yeesu, mu yuuxu, daanu ciy tànkam, daldi xaacu ne: «Yaw Yeesu Doomu Yàlla Aji Kawe ji, loo may fexeel? Maa ngi lay ñaan, nga bañ maa mbugal.»

²⁸When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, “What do I have to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the Most High God? I beg you, don’t torment me!”

²⁹ Dafa wax loolu, ndaxte Yeesu santoon na rab wi, mu génn ci moom. Rab wa dafa ko doon faral a jàpp. Nit ñi daan nañu ko wottu, di ko yeew ak ay càllala, ak di ko jéng, mu di leen dagg, rab wi di ko xiir ca bérab yu wéet.

²⁹For Jesus was commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For the unclean spirit had often seized the man. He was kept under guard, and bound with chains and fetters. Breaking the bands apart, he was driven by the demon into the desert.

³⁰ Noonu Yeesu laaj ko: «Noo tudd?» Mu tontu ne: «Coggal laa tudd.» Dafa wax loolu, ndaxte rab yu baree ko jàppoon.

³⁰Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He said, “Legion,” for many demons had entered into him.

³¹ Rab yooyoo ngi ko doon ñaan, ngir mu bañ leen a sant, ñu dem ca kàmb gu xóot gi.

³¹They begged him that he would not command them to go into the abyss.

³² Fekk amoon na fa géttu mbaam-xuux yu bare, yuy for ca tund wa. Rab ya ñaan Yeesu, mu may leen, ñu dugg mbaam-xuux ya. Mu may leen ko.

³²Now there was there a herd of many pigs feeding on the mountain, and they begged him that he would allow them to enter into those. He allowed them.

³³ Noonu rab ya génn nit ka, dugg mbaam-xuux ya, ñu daldi bartalu, daanu ca dex ga, lab.

³³The demons came out from the man, and entered into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake, and were drowned.

³⁴ Sàmm ya gis li xew, daw nettaliji mbir mi ca dëkk ba ak ca àll ba.

³⁴When those who fed them saw what had happened, they fled, and told it in the city and in the country.

³⁵ Nit ñi génn, ngir seet li xew. Bi ñu agsee ca Yeesu, ñu fekk fa nit, ka rab ya bàyyi woon, toog ca kanam Yeesu, sol ay yére te ànd ak sagoom. Ñu daldi ragal.

³⁵People went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting at Jesus’ feet, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.

³⁶ Ña fekke woon mbir ma nag, nettali leen naka la Yeesu wérale ki rab ya jàppoon.

³⁶Those who saw it told them how he who had been possessed by demons was healed.

³⁷ Ci kaw loolu waa diiwaanu Serasa bépp ragal, ba ñaan Yeesu mu jóge fa. Noonu Yeesu dugg ci gaal gi, di bëgg a dem.

³⁷All the people of the surrounding country of the Gadarenes asked him to depart from them, for they were very much afraid. He entered into the boat, and returned.

³⁸ Nit ki Yeesu tàggale woon ak rab ya ñaan ko, ngir ànd ak moom. Waaye Yeesu woññi ko ne ko:

³⁸But the man from whom the demons had gone out begged him that he might go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying,

³⁹ «Ñibbil, nettali li la Yàlla defal lépp.» Noonu waa ji dem di wër dëkk ba yépp, di fa yégle la ko Yeesu defal.

³⁹ “Return to your house, and declare what great things God has done for you.” He went his way, proclaiming throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.

⁴⁰ Bi Yeesu dëppee dellu, mbooloo ma di ko teeru, ndaxte ñépp a ngi ko doon xaar.

⁴⁰It happened, when Jesus returned, that the multitude welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.

⁴¹ Noonu nit ñëw, tuddoon Yayrus te nekk njiitu jàngu ba. Bi mu agsee, mu daanu ci tànki Yeesu, saraxu ko mu ñëw këram,

⁴¹Behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue. He fell down at Jesus’ feet, and begged him to come into his house,

⁴² ndaxte jenn doomam ju jigéen, ji mu amoon kepp te muy tollu ci fukki at ak ñaar, ma nga doon waaj a dee. Bi Yeesuy dem, nit ñaa ngi doon buuxante, di ko tanc.

⁴²for he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. But as he went, the multitudes pressed against him.

⁴³ Amoon na nag ca mbooloo ma jigéen ju doon xëpp deret diirub fukki at ak ñaar, te kenn mënu ko woon a faj.

⁴³A woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years, who had spent all her living on physicians, and could not be healed by any,

⁴⁴ Jigéen ja jegeñsi Yeesu nag, doxe ko gannaaw, laal catu mbubbam. Ca saa sa deret ji dal.

⁴⁴came behind him, and touched the fringe or, tassel of his cloak, and immediately the flow of her blood stopped.

⁴⁵ Yeesu laaj nit ña ne: «Ana ku ma laal?» Ku nekk di miim. Noonu Piyeer ne ko: «Kilifa gi, nit ñépp a ngi lay wër, di la tanc wet gu nekk.»

⁴⁵Jesus said, “Who touched me?” When all denied it, Peter and those with him said, “Master, the multitudes press and jostle you, and you say, ‘Who touched me?’ ”

⁴⁶ Waaye Yeesu ne: «Am na ku ma laal, ndaxte yég naa ne, am na doole ju génn ci man.»

⁴⁶But Jesus said, “Someone did touch me, for I perceived that power has gone out of me.”

⁴⁷ Te jigéen ja xam ne, mënul woon a nëbb li mu def. Mu daldi daanu ci tànki Yeesu, di lox. Noonu mu nettali ci kanamu ñépp li taxoon mu laal Yeesu, ak ni mu wére ca saa sa.

⁴⁷When the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling, and falling down before him declared to him in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately.

⁴⁸ Yeesu ne ko: «Soxna si, sa ngëm faj na la. Demal ci jàmm.»

⁴⁸He said to her, “Daughter, cheer up. Your faith has made you well. Go in peace.”

⁴⁹ Bi Yeesu di wax nag, am na ku jóge ca kër njiit la, mu ñëw naan: «Sa doom faatu na; matatul ngay sonal kilifa gi.»

⁴⁹While he still spoke, one from the ruler of the synagogue’s house came, saying to him, “Your daughter is dead. Don’t trouble the Teacher.”

⁵⁰ Yeesu dégg kàddu yooyu, daldi ne njiit la: «Bul tiit. Gëmal rekk te dina dundaat.»

⁵⁰But Jesus hearing it, answered him, “Don’t be afraid. Only believe, and she will be healed.”

⁵¹ Bi Yeesu agsee ca kër ga, nanguwul kenn duggaaleek moom, ñu dul Piyeer, Yowaana, Saag ak waajuri xale ba.

⁵¹When he came to the house, he didn’t allow anyone to enter in, except Peter, John, James, the father of the child, and her mother.

⁵² Ña fa nekk ñépp di yuuxu ak di jooy xale bi. Noonu Yeesu ne leen: «Bàyyileen seen jooy yi. Janq bi deewul, day nelaw rekk.»

⁵²All were weeping and mourning her, but he said, “Don’t weep. She isn’t dead, but sleeping.”

⁵³ Waaye ñu di ko ñaawal, ndaxte xamoon nañu ne, dee na.

⁵³They were ridiculing him, knowing that she was dead.

⁵⁴ Waaye Yeesu jàpp loxob janq ba, woo ko ne ko: «Xale bi, jógal.»

⁵⁴But he put them all outside, and taking her by the hand, he called, saying, “Child, arise!”

⁵⁵ Noonu ruuwu xale ba dellusiwaat, mu daldi jóg ca saa sa. Yeesu santaane ñu may ko, mu lekk.

⁵⁵Her spirit returned, and she rose up immediately. He commanded that something be given to her to eat.

⁵⁶ Waajuri xale bi daldi waaru. Waaye Yeesu tere leen, ñu wax kenn li xew.

⁵⁶Her parents were amazed, but he commanded them to tell no one what had been done.
