¹ Amoon na benn bésu noflaay Yeesu jaar ci ay tool yu ñor, fekk ay taalibeem xiif; ñu daldi fàq ay gub nag, di lekk.

¹At that time, Jesus went on the Sabbath day through the grain fields. His disciples were hungry and began to pluck heads of grain and to eat.

² Farisen ya nag gis ko, ne Yeesu: «Gisal, say taalibe ñu ngi def lu jaaduwul ci bésu noflaay bi.»

²But the Pharisees, when they saw it, said to him, “Behold, your disciples do what is not lawful to do on the Sabbath.”

³ Noonu Yeesu tontu leen: «Ndax jànguleen la Daawuda defoon, ba mu xiifee, moom ak ña mu àndaloon?

³But he said to them, “Haven’t you read what David did, when he was hungry, and those who were with him;

⁴ Xanaa yéguleen, ni mu dugge woon ca kër Yàlla ga, gis fa mburu, ya ñu jébbal Yàlla, mu daldi ko lekk. Fekk jaaduwul mu lekk ca, moom walla ña mu àndaloon; saraxalekat rekk a ko sañoon a lekk.

⁴ how he entered into God’s house, and ate the show bread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for those who were with him, but only for the priests? 1 Samuel 21:3-6

⁵ Te it ndax jànguleen ci yoonu Musaa, ne saraxalekat ya ca kër Yàlla ga teraluñu bésu noflaay bi, te tooñuñu?

⁵ Or have you not read in the law, that on the Sabbath day, the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath, and are guiltless?

⁶ Waaye maa ngi leen koy wax, am na ci seen biir ku sut kër Yàlla ga.

⁶ But I tell you that one greater than the temple is here.

⁷ Mbind mi nee na: “Yërmande laa bëgg, waaye du rendi saraxi mala.” Su ngeen xamoon lu wax joojuy tekki, kon dungeen teg tooñ ñi tooñul.

⁷ But if you had known what this means, ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice,’ Hosea 6:6 you would not have condemned the guiltless.

⁸ Ndaxte Doomu nit ki mooy boroom bésu noflaay bi.»

⁸ For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.”

⁹ Bi loolu amee Yeesu jóge foofa, dugg ci seen jàngu,

⁹He departed there, and went into their synagogue.

¹⁰ te amoon na fa nit ku loxoom làggi. Noonu Farisen ya laaj ko: «Faj ci bésu noflaay bi, ndax loolu jaadu na?» Fekk ñuy wut buntu tuumaal ko.

¹⁰And behold there was a man with a withered hand. They asked him, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath day?” that they might accuse him.

¹¹ Yeesu tontu leen: «Ku fi amoon xar, mu daanu ci kàmb ci bésu noflaay bi, ndax doo ko jàpp, génne ko?

¹¹He said to them, “What man is there among you, who has one sheep, and if this one falls into a pit on the Sabbath day, won’t he grab on to it, and lift it out?

¹² Nit nag, ndax ëppul maana xar? Kon def lu baax ci bésu noflaay bi jaadu na.»

¹² Of how much more value then is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath day.”

¹³ Noonu Yeesu ne nit ka: «Tàllalal sa loxo!» Mu tàllal ko nag, loxoom daldi wér, mel ni ba ca des.

¹³Then he told the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out; and it was restored whole, just like the other.

¹⁴ Farisen ya génn nag, daldi gise, ngir fexee reylu Yeesu.

¹⁴But the Pharisees went out, and conspired against him, how they might destroy him.

¹⁵ Waaye bi ko Yeesu yégee, mu sore foofa; te ñu bare topp ko, mu wéral leen ñoom ñépp.

¹⁵Jesus, perceiving that, withdrew from there. Great multitudes followed him; and he healed them all,

¹⁶ Te mu dénk leen bu wóor, ñu bañ koo siiwal.

¹⁶and commanded them that they should not make him known:

¹⁷ Def na noonu, ngir amal la ñu waxoon jaarale ko ci yonent Yàlla Esayi, bi mu naan:

¹⁷that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,

¹⁸ «Kii mooy sama Ndaw li ma tànn,di sama Soppe bi neex sama xol.Dinaa def sama Xel ci moom,muy yégal xeet yi yoonu njub.

¹⁸“Behold, my servant whom I have chosen; my beloved in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my Spirit on him. He will proclaim justice to the nations.

¹⁹ Du xëccoo mbaa muy wax ci kaw,te kenn du dégg baatam ci mbedd yi.

¹⁹He will not strive, nor shout; neither will anyone hear his voice in the streets.

²⁰ Du dammaate barax bu banku,te mees guy saxar, du ko fey,ba kera mu yégal njub, ba daan.

²⁰He won’t break a bruised reed. He won’t quench a smoking flax, until he leads justice to victory.

²¹ Ci turam la xeet yi di ame yaakaar.»

²¹In his name, the nations will hope.” Isaiah 42:1-4

²² Booba ñu indil ko ku rab jàpp, mu gumba te luu. Yeesu faj ko, ba ku luu ki di wax tey gis.

²²Then one possessed by a demon, blind and mute, was brought to him and he healed him, so that the blind and mute man both spoke and saw.

²³ Noonu mbooloo mépp yéemu naan: «Ndax kii du Sëtu Daawuda bi?»

²³All the multitudes were amazed, and said, “Can this be the son of David?”

²⁴ Bi Farisen ya déggee loolu nag, ñu ne: «Kii ci kàttanu Beelsebul, buuru rab yi, lay dàqe rab yi.»

²⁴But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, “This man does not cast out demons, except by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons.”

²⁵ Waaye Yeesu xam seen xalaat ne leen: «Réew mu xeex boppam tas, te dëkk mbaa kër guy xeex boppam du man a yàgg.

²⁵Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.

²⁶ Bu Seytaane dàqee Seytaane nag, xeex na boppam; kon naka la nguuram di man a yàgge?

²⁶ If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?

²⁷ Te it bu fekkee ne man damay dàq ay rab ci kàttanu Beelsebul, seeni taalibe nag, ci gan kàttan lañu leen di dàqe? Kon ñoo leen di àtte.

²⁷ If I by Beelzebul cast out demons, by whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges.

²⁸ Waaye bu fekkee ne ci Xelum Yàlla laay dàqe rab, kon nguuru Yàlla agsi na ba ci yéen.

²⁸ But if I by the Spirit of God cast out demons, then the Kingdom of God has come upon you.

²⁹ «Su fi amee nit ku bare doole, te nit bëgg a dugg ci këram, nangu alalam, naka la koy defe? Xanaa dafay jëkk a yeew ku bare doole ka, ba noppi door a toj këram gépp.

²⁹ Or how can one enter into the house of the strong man, and plunder his goods, unless he first bind the strong man? Then he will plunder his house.

³⁰ Noonu ku farul ak man, yaa ngi may xeex, ku dajalewul ak man, yaa ngi tasaare.»

³⁰ “He who is not with me is against me, and he who doesn’t gather with me, scatters.

³¹ Yeesu teg ca ne: «Loolu moo tax maa ngi leen koy wax, bàkkaar walla sos wu mu man a doon, dinañu ko baale, waaye ku sosal Xelum Yàlla, duñu ko baal.

³¹ Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men.

³² Ku sosal Doomu nit ki, dinañu ko baal, waaye ku sosal Xel mu Sell mi, duñu ko baal mukk, du ci àddina si, du ci àllaaxira.

³² Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, neither in this age, nor in that which is to come.

³³ Neeleen garab gi baax na, moom ak meññeefam, walla ngeen ne garab gi bon na, moom ak meññeefam; ndaxte garab, meññeefam lañu koy xàmmee.

³³ “Either make the tree good, and its fruit good, or make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt; for the tree is known by its fruit.

³⁴ Yéen ñi fees ak daŋar ni ay co, naka ngeen man a waxe lu baax, fekk dangeen bon? Ndaxte gémmiñ, la fees xol lay wax.

³⁴ You offspring of vipers, how can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.

³⁵ Noonu nit ku baax, lu baax lay wax, jële ko ca fa mu denc lu baax, te nit ku bon, lu bon lay wax, jële ko ca fa mu denc lu bon.

³⁵ The good man out of his good treasure brings out good things, and the evil man out of his evil treasure TR adds “of the heart” brings out evil things.

³⁶ Maa ngi leen di wax ne, keroog bés pénc, nit ñi dinañu làyyi ndax wax ju nekk ju amul njariñ, ju ñu mas a wax.

³⁶ I tell you that every idle word that men speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment.

³⁷ Ndaxte dees na la àtte ni ku jub ci say wax, walla ñu daan la ci say wax.»

³⁷ For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”

³⁸ Ci kaw loolu ay xutbakat ak ay Farisen wax ak Yeesu ne ko: «Kilifa gi, danoo bëggoon, nga won nu kéemaan guy firndeel sag yónnent.»

³⁸Then certain of the scribes and Pharisees answered, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from you.”

³⁹ Yeesu tontu leen: «Yéenay laaj firnde, yéen niti jamono ju bon jii, yéen ñi fecci seen kóllëre ak Yàlla, waaye dungeen jot genn firnde gu dul firndeg yonent Yàlla Yunus.

³⁹But he answered them, “An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, but no sign will be given it but the sign of Jonah the prophet.

⁴⁰ Ndaxte ni Yunus nekke woon ñetti guddi ak ñetti bëccëg ci biir rabu géej wu mag, noonu la Doomu nit ki di nekke ñetti guddi ak ñetti bëccëg ci biir suuf.

⁴⁰ For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the whale, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

⁴¹ Keroog bés pénc waa dëkku Niniw dinañu jógandoo ak niti jamono jii, yey leen; ndaxte bi leen Yunus waaree, tuub nañu seeni bàkkaar, te ku sut Yunus a ngi fi.

⁴¹ The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and behold, someone greater than Jonah is here.

⁴² Te it ca bés pénc buur bu jigéen, ba dëkkoon ca sudd, dina jógandoo ak niti jamono jii, yey leen; ndaxte dafa jóge ca catul àddina, ngir déglu xam-xamu Suleymaan, te ku sut Suleymaan a ngi fi.

⁴² The queen of the south will rise up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, someone greater than Solomon is here.

⁴³ «Boo xamee ne rab wa jàppoon nit génn na ci moom, day wër ay bérab yu wow, di wut fu mu noppaloo, waaye du ko gis.

⁴³ But the unclean spirit, when he is gone out of the man, passes through waterless places, seeking rest, and doesn’t find it.

⁴⁴ Noonu da naan: “Naa dellu ca sama kër, ga ma génne woon.” Bu ñëwee nag, mu fekk kërug neen, ñu bale ko, defar ko ba lépp jekk.

⁴⁴ Then he says, ‘I will return into my house from which I came out,’ and when he has come back, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order.

⁴⁵ Bu ko gisee nag, mu dem wooyi yeneen juróom-ñaari rab yu ko gën a soxor, ñu dugg, sanc fa; ba tax muju nit kooku mooy yées njàlbéenam. Noonu lay nekke ak niti jamono ju bon jii.»

⁴⁵ Then he goes, and takes with himself seven other spirits more evil than he is, and they enter in and dwell there. The last state of that man becomes worse than the first. Even so will it be also to this evil generation.”

⁴⁶ Bi Yeesu nekkee di wax ak mbooloo ma, ndeyam ak ay rakkam daldi ñëw, taxaw ci biti, bëgg a wax ak moom.

⁴⁶While he was yet speaking to the multitudes, behold, his mother and his brothers stood outside, seeking to speak to him.

⁴⁷ Noonu kenn nit ne ko: «Sa yaay ak say rakk ñu ngi nii taxaw ci biti, bëgg a wax ak yaw.»

⁴⁷One said to him, “Behold, your mother and your brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to you.”

⁴⁸ Waaye Yeesu tontu ko ne: «Kan mooy sama ndey ak ñan ñooy samay rakk?»

⁴⁸But he answered him who spoke to him, “Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?”

⁴⁹ Noonu mu joxoñ ay taalibeem naan: «Ñii ñooy sama ndey ak samay rakk.

⁴⁹He stretched out his hand towards his disciples, and said, “Behold, my mother and my brothers!

⁵⁰ Ndaxte ku def sama coobareg Baay bi nekk ci kaw, yaa di sama rakk, sama jigéen ak sama ndey.»

⁵⁰ For whoever does the will of my Father who is in heaven, he is my brother, and sister, and mother.”
