1 Juróom-benni fan gannaaw gi, Yeesu àndoon na ak Piyeer, Saag ak Yowaana rakkam, yóbbu leen fu wéet ci tund wu kawe lool.
1After six days, Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John his brother, and brought them up into a high mountain by themselves.
2 Mu soppiku fa seen kanam, xar-kanamam di melax nib jant, te ay yéreem weex ni leer.
2He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his garments became as white as the light.
3 Naka noonu ñu gis yonenti Yàlla Musaa ak Iliyas, di waxtaan ak Yeesu.
3Behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them talking with him.
4 Piyeer nag daldi wax Yeesu ne ko: «Sang bi, bég nanu ci sunu teew fii; soo ko bëggee, dinaa fi defar ñetti mbaar, benn yaw, benn Musaa ak benn Iliyas.»
4Peter answered, and said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you want, let’s make three tents here: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”
5 Waaye bi muy wax, niir wu leer muur leen, te baat jib ca niir wa naan: «Kii mooy sama Doom ji ma bëgg, ci moom laa ame bànneex; dégluleen ko.»
5While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them. Behold, a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Listen to him.”
6 Bi taalibe yi déggee baat bi, ñu ne nërëm ci suuf, daldi tiit lool.
6When the disciples heard it, they fell on their faces, and were very afraid.
7 Waaye Yeesu jegeñsi, laal leen naan: «Jógleen, buleen ragal dara.»
7Jesus came and touched them and said, “Get up, and don’t be afraid.”
8 Noonu ñu xool ci kaw, waaye gisatuñu kenn ku dul Yeesu rekk.
8Lifting up their eyes, they saw no one, except Jesus alone.
9 Bi loolu amee ñu wàcc ca tund wa. Bi ñuy wàcc nag, Yeesu sant leen ne: «Buleen nettali kenn li ngeen gis, ba kera Doomu nit ki dekki.»
9As they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, “Don’t tell anyone what you saw, until the Son of Man has risen from the dead.”
10 Noonu taalibe ya laaj ko: «Lu tax xutbakat ya nag di wax ne, Iliyas mooy jëkk a ñëw?»
10His disciples asked him, saying, “Then why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”
11 Yeesu tontu leen ne: «Waaw dëgg la, Iliyas war na ñëw, jubbanti lépp.
11Jesus answered them, “Elijah indeed comes first, and will restore all things,
12 Teewul maa ngi leen di wax ne, Iliyas ñëw na te xàmmiwuñu ko, waaye def nañu ko la leen neex. Noonu it dañoo nar a sonal léegi Doomu nit ki.»
12 but I tell you that Elijah has come already, and they didn’t recognize him, but did to him whatever they wanted to. Even so the Son of Man will also suffer by them.”
13 Ndax wax jooju nag, taalibe ya xam ne, ci mbirum Yaxya la leen doon wax.
13Then the disciples understood that he spoke to them of John the Baptizer.
14 Bi nga xamee ne wàcc nañu, ba ñëw ca mbooloo ma, genn góor ñëw ci moom, sukk
14When they came to the multitude, a man came to him, kneeling down to him, saying,
15 naan: «Sang bi, yërëmal sama doom, ndaxte mu ngi say, di am coono bu metti; léeg-léeg mu daanu ci safara, léeg-léeg mu daanu ci ndox.
15“Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is epileptic, and suffers grievously; for he often falls into the fire, and often into the water.
16 Indi naa ko ci say taalibe, waaye mënuñu koo faj.»
16So I brought him to your disciples, and they could not cure him.”
17 Noonu Yeesu tontu ne: «Yéen niti jamono jii, yéen ñi gëmadi te dëng, ba kañ laa war a nekk ak yéen, ba kañ laa leen di war a muñal?» Mu ne leen, «Indil-leen ma xale bi fii.»
17Jesus answered, “Faithless and perverse generation! How long will I be with you? How long will I bear with you? Bring him here to me.”
18 Noonu Yeesu tëkku rab wa, rab wa génn ca xale ba, mu daldi wér ca saa sa.
18Jesus rebuked him, the demon went out of him, and the boy was cured from that hour.
19 Bi loolu amee taalibe ya ñëw ci Yeesu, laaj ko ci pegg: «Lu tax nun mënunu woon a dàq rab wi?»
19Then the disciples came to Jesus privately, and said, “Why weren’t we able to cast it out?”
20 Yeesu tontu leen ne: «Seen ngëm gu néew a tax. Ci dëgg maa ngi leen koy wax, su ngeen amee ngëm gu tuuti sax niw peppu fuddën, kon dingeen ne tund wii: “Jógeel fii, toxu fale,” te dina fa dem, ba dara du leen të.»
20He said to them, “Because of your unbelief. For most certainly I tell you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will tell this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.
22 Bi ñuy wër diiwaanu Galile nag, Yeesu ne leen: «Léegi ñu jébbal Doomu nit ki ci loxoy nit ñi;
21 But this kind doesn’t go out except by prayer and fasting.”
23 dinañu ko rey, mu dekki ca ñetteelu fan ba.» Bi ko taalibe ya déggee, ñu am naqar lool.
22While they were staying in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men,
24 Gannaaw loolu Yeesu ak taalibe ya ñëw Kapernawum. Bi ñu fa àggee nag, laajkati warugaru kër Yàlla ga ñëw ci Piyeer ne ko: «Ndax seen kilifa du fey posetu ñaari daraxma ngir warugar wi?»
23 and they will kill him, and the third day he will be raised up.” They were exceedingly sorry.
25 Piyeer ne leen: «Aaŋkay!»Ba ñu eggee kër ga nag, Yeesu jëkk a wax ne Piyeer: «Waaw lu ciy sa xalaat, Simoŋ? Buuri àddina si, ñan lañuy laaj juuti walla galag? Seeni doom walla ñi bokkul ci njaboot gi?»
24When they had come to Capernaum, those who collected the didrachma coins A didrachma is a Greek silver coin worth 2 drachmas, about as much as 2 Roman denarii, or about 2 days’ wages. It was commonly used to pay the half-shekel temple tax, because 2 drachmas were worth one half shekel of silver. came to Peter, and said, “Doesn’t your teacher pay the didrachma?”
26 Piyeer tontu ko ne: «Xanaa ñi bokkul ci kër gi.» Yeesu ne ko: «Kon doom yi nag mucc nañu ci.
25He said, “Yes.” When he came into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, “What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth receive toll or tribute? From their children, or from strangers?”
27 Waaye bëgguma nu naqaral leen; kon demal sànni oos ca dex ga te nga génne jën wa jëkk a xëcc. Boo ubbee gémmiñam, dinga ca gis posetu estateer. Jël ko nag, jox leen ko ngir man ak yaw.»
26Peter said to him, “From strangers.” Jesus said to him, “Therefore the children are exempt.
27 But, lest we cause them to stumble, go to the sea, cast a hook, and take up the first fish that comes up. When you have opened its mouth, you will find a stater coin. A stater is a silver coin equivalent to four Attic or two Alexandrian drachmas, or a Jewish shekel: just exactly enough to cover the half-shekel temple tax for two people. Take that, and give it to them for me and you.”
