1 Gannaaw loolu Yeesu jóge fa, dem ca wàlli réewu Yawut yi, ya ca gannaaw dexu Yurdan. Bi mu fa demee, mbooloo mu bare ñëw fi moom. Yeesu daldi leen jàngal, ni mu ko daan defe.
1He arose from there and came into the borders of Judea and beyond the Jordan. Multitudes came together to him again. As he usually did, he was again teaching them.
2 Noonu ay Farisen ñëw ci moom, lalal ko fiir, ñu laaj ko: «Ndax jaadu na, nit fase jabaram?»
2Pharisees came to him testing him, and asked him, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?”
3 Yeesu tontu leen ne: «Lu leen yoonu Musaa sant?»
3He answered, “What did Moses command you?”
4 Ñu ne ko: «Musaa maye na, nit bind kayitu pase, tàggook jabaram.»
4They said, “Moses allowed a certificate of divorce to be written, and to divorce her.”
5 Waaye Yeesu ne leen: «Dénkaane boobu mu leen bindal, bind na ko ndax seen xol dafa fatt.
5But Jesus said to them, “For your hardness of heart, he wrote you this commandment.
6 Waaye ca njàlbéen ga “Yàlla sàkk na leen, kii góor, kii jigéen.
6 But from the beginning of the creation, God made them male and female. Genesis 1:27
7 Moo tax góor dina beru ndeyam ak baayam, di taq ci jabaram,
7 For this cause a man will leave his father and mother, and will join to his wife,
8 ñoom ñaar doon benn.” Kon nekkatuñu ñaar waaye benn.
8 and the two will become one flesh, Genesis 2:24 so that they are no longer two, but one flesh.
9 Lu Yàlla takk nag, bu ko nit tas.»
9 What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate.”
10 Bi ñu delloo ca kër ga nag, taalibe ya laaj ko ci mbirum loolu.
10In the house, his disciples asked him again about the same matter.
11 Noonu Yeesu ne leen: «Ku fase sa jabar, takk jeneen, njaaloo nga, di tooñ ku jëkk ka.
11He said to them, “Whoever divorces his wife, and marries another, commits adultery against her.
12 Te jigéen ji tas, séyaat ak keneen, njaaloo nga.»
12 If a woman herself divorces her husband, and marries another, she commits adultery.”
13 Bi loolu wéyee ñu indil Yeesu ay xale, ngir mu teg leen ay loxoom. Waaye taalibe ya gëdd nit ñi.
13They were bringing to him little children, that he should touch them, but the disciples rebuked those who were bringing them.
14 Bi ko Yeesu gisee nag, mu metti ko lool, mu ne leen: «Bàyyileen xale yi, ñu ñëw fi man! Buleen leen tere, ndaxte ñu mel ni ñoom ñoo yelloo nguuru Yàlla.
14But when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation, and said to them, “Allow the little children to come to me! Don’t forbid them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
15 Ci dëgg maa ngi leen koy wax, ku woyoful ni xale, nangu nguuru Yàlla, doo ci man a dugg.»
15 Most certainly I tell you, whoever will not receive the Kingdom of God like a little child, he will in no way enter into it.”
16 Noonu Yeesu leewu leen, teg leen ay loxoom, barkeel leen.
16He took them in his arms, and blessed them, laying his hands on them.
17 Gannaaw loolu bi Yeesu nekkee ci kaw yoon wi di dem, am ku daw, sukk ci kanamam ne ko: «Kilifa gu baax gi, lu ma war a def, ngir am wàll ci dund gu dul jeex gi?»
17As he was going out into the way, one ran to him, knelt before him, and asked him, “Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?”
18 Yeesu tontu ko: «Lu tax nga wooye ma ku baax ki? Yàlla rekk a baax.
18Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good except one—God.
19 Xam nga ndigal yi: “Bul bóom, bul njaaloo, bul sàcc, bul seede lu dul dëgg, bul nangu alalu jaambur, teralal sa ndey ak sa baay.”»
19 You know the commandments: ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not commit adultery,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not give false testimony,’ ‘Do not defraud,’ ‘Honor your father and mother.’” Exodus 20:12-16; Deuteronomy 5:16-20
20 Waa ji ne ko: «Kilifa gi, loolu lépp sàmm naa ko li dale ci samag ndaw ba tey.»
20He said to him, “Teacher, I have observed all these things from my youth.”
21 Noonu Yeesu xool ko, am cofeel ci moom, mu ne ko: «Lenn rekk moo la dese. Demal jaay li nga am, may ko miskin yi, te dinga woomle ci asamaan; boo noppee, nga ñëw topp ci man.»
21Jesus looking at him loved him, and said to him, “One thing you lack. Go, sell whatever you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me, taking up the cross.”
22 Waaye ci wax jooju xar-kanamam lëndëm, mu jóge fa ak tiis, ndaxte ku bare woon alal la.
22But his face fell at that saying, and he went away sorrowful, for he was one who had great possessions.
23 Noonu Yeesu xool taalibe yi ko wër ne leen: «Boroom alal dugg ci nguuru Yàlla, lu jafee ngoogu!»
23Jesus looked around, and said to his disciples, “How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter into the Kingdom of God!”
24 Wax jooju nag daldi jaaxal taalibe yi lool. Waaye Yeesu neeti leen: «Samay xarit, dugg ci nguuru Yàlla, lu jafee ngoogu!
24The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus answered again, “Children, how hard is it for those who trust in riches to enter into the Kingdom of God!
25 Giléem jaar ci bën-bënu pusa, moo gën a yomb boroom alal dugg ci nguuru Yàlla.»
25 It is easier for a camel to go through a needle’s eye than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God.”
26 Wax jooju gënatee jaaxal taalibe ya, ñu naan ci seen biir: «Kon nag ku man a mucc?»
26They were exceedingly astonished, saying to him, “Then who can be saved?”
27 Noonu Yeesu xool leen naan: «Loolu të na nit, waaye tëwul Yàlla; Yàlla man na lépp.»
27Jesus, looking at them, said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God, for all things are possible with God.”
28 Ci kaw loolu Piyeer daldi ko ne: «Nun de dëddu nanu lépp te topp la!»
28Peter began to tell him, “Behold, we have left all, and have followed you.”
29 Yeesu tontu ko: «Ci dëgg maa ngi leen koy wax, képp ku dëddu kër, doomu ndey yu góor walla yu jigéen, ndey walla baay, doom walla suuf ndax man ak xebaar bu baax bi,
29Jesus said, “Most certainly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or land, for my sake, and for the sake of the Good News,
30 dinga am tey jii téeméeri yoon ay kër, doomi ndey yu góor ak yu jigéen, ndey, doom ak suuf, ñoom ak ay fitnay noon, te ëllëg nga am dund gu dul jeex.
30 but he will receive one hundred times more now in this time, houses, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and land, with persecutions; and in the age to come eternal life.
31 Waaye ñu bare ci ñi jiitu ñooy mujji; ñi mujj ñooy jiituji.»
31 But many who are first will be last; and the last first.”
32 Gannaaw loolu ñu ànd jëm Yerusalem, Yeesu jiitu; taalibe yi am njàqare, te ñi ci topp tiit. Noonu Yeesu woowaat fukk ak ñaar ña cig wet, xamal leen li nar a xew ci mbiram.
32They were on the way, going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was going in front of them, and they were amazed; and those who followed were afraid. He again took the twelve, and began to tell them the things that were going to happen to him.
33 Mu ne leen: «Noo ngi dem Yerusalem, te dees na jébbal Doomu nit ki ci loxoy saraxalekat yu mag ya ak xutbakat ya. Dinañu ko àtte, teg ko dee, jébbal ko ñi dul Yawut,
33 “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem. The Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and the scribes. They will condemn him to death, and will deliver him to the Gentiles.
34 ñu ñaawal ko, di tifli ci kawam, dóor ko ay yar, rey ko. Waaye gannaaw ñetti fan dina dekki.»
34 They will mock him, spit on him, scourge him, and kill him. On the third day he will rise again.”
35 Gannaaw loolu Saag ak Yowaana, doomi Sebede, ñëw ci Yeesu. Ñu ne ko: «Kilifa gi, danoo bëggoon nga may nu li nu lay ñaan.»
35James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came near to him, saying, “Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we will ask.”
36 Yeesu tontu leen: «Lu ngeen bëggoon, ma may leen ko?»
36He said to them, “What do you want me to do for you?”
37 Ñu ne ko: «Bés boo soloo sa ndam, nga may nu, nu toog, kii ci sa ndeyjoor, kii ci sa càmmooñ.»
37They said to him, “Grant to us that we may sit, one at your right hand, and one at your left hand, in your glory.”
38 Waaye Yeesu tontu leen: «Xamuleen li ngeen di ñaan. Ndax man ngeen a naan kaasu naqar, bi may naan? Ndax man ngeen a sóobu ci metit, yi ma nar a sóobu?»
38But Jesus said to them, “You don’t know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?”
39 Ñu ne ko: «Waaw, man nanu ko.» Noonu Yeesu ne leen: «Dingeen naan kaasu naqar, bi may naan, tey sóobu ci metit, yi ma nar a sóobu,
39They said to him, “We are able.” Jesus said to them, “You shall indeed drink the cup that I drink, and you shall be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with;
40 waaye toog ci sama ndeyjoor mbaa sama càmmooñ, du man maa koy maye. Ñi ñu ko waajal rekk a ko yelloo.»
40 but to sit at my right hand and at my left hand is not mine to give, but for whom it has been prepared.”
41 Bi nga xamee ne fukki taalibe ya ca des dégg nañu loolu, ñu daldi mere Saag ak Yowaana.
41When the ten heard it, they began to be indignant towards James and John.
42 Waaye Yeesu woo leen naan: «Xam ngeen ne ci xeeti àddina, ñi ñu teg njiit dañu leen di dóor yetu nguur, te kilifa yi di leen noot.
42Jesus summoned them, and said to them, “You know that they who are recognized as rulers over the nations lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.
43 Buleen mel ni ñooñu. Waaye ku bëgg a nekk kilifa ci yéen, na nekk seen surga,
43 But it shall not be so among you, but whoever wants to become great among you shall be your servant.
44 te ku bëgg a nekk njiit, na nekk seen jaam.
44 Whoever of you wants to become first among you, shall be bondservant of all.
45 Ndaxte noonu la Doomu nit ki ñëwe sax, du ngir ñu nekk ay surgaam, waaye ngir muy seen surga, ba joxe bakkanam ngir njotug ñu bare.»
45 For the Son of Man also came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
46 Bi loolu wéyee ñu agsi ca dëkku Yeriko. Bi ko Yeesu di génn, ànd ak taalibe ya ak mbooloo mu xaw a bare, am gumba gu tudd Bartime — liy tekki «doomu Time,» toog ci wetu yoon wi, di yelwaan.
46They came to Jericho. As he went out from Jericho, with his disciples and a great multitude, the son of Timaeus, Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the road.
47 Noonu mu dégg ne, Yeesum Nasaret moo fay romb; mu daldi yuuxu naan: «Yërëm ma, yaw Sëtu Daawuda bi!»
47When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, and say, “Jesus, you son of David, have mercy on me!”
48 Ci kaw loolu ñu bare gëdd ko, ngir mu noppi. Teewul mu gën a yuuxu naan: «Yaw Sëtu Daawuda bi, yërëm ma!»
48Many rebuked him, that he should be quiet, but he cried out much more, “You son of David, have mercy on me!”
49 Noonu Yeesu taxaw, daldi ne: «Wooleen ko!» Ñu woo nag gumba gi ne ko: «Na sa xel dal! Jógal! Mu ngi lay woo.»
49Jesus stood still, and said, “Call him.” They called the blind man, saying to him, “Cheer up! Get up. He is calling you!”
50 Bi mu ko déggee, mu sànni malaanam, ne bërét, dem ci Yeesu.
50He, casting away his cloak, sprang up, and came to Jesus.
51 Yeesu ne ko: «Loo bëggoon ma defal la ko?» Gumba gi tontu ko: «Kilifa gi, damaa bëgg a gis.»
51Jesus asked him, “What do you want me to do for you?” The blind man said to him, “Rabboni, Rabboni is a transliteration of the Hebrew word for “great teacher.” that I may see again.”
52 Noonu Yeesu ne ko: «Demal ci jàmm. Sa ngëm faj na la.» Ci saa si gumba gi gis, daldi topp Yeesu ci yoon wi.
52Jesus said to him, “Go your way. Your faith has made you well.” Immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way.
