Luke 8 (AQK) · Opened

1Gong kama, Yesu na dzip ntun nkpingkpyaˈ ni tsitsap ta dibi ban reng Arik nebi reng ku re atu yi song Arik. Amung kopma awur ne awaa ma basi ndo na wu,Soon afterward, Jesus traveled from one town and village to another, preaching and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God. The Twelve were with Him,

2ne amba nung abami na kpab ba anerim ta nam ba ane ro man. Ming man Maryamu (agyo wu ti Magadaliya), awami na kpab wu anerim a tangba ari kpama,as well as some women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out,

3Yuwana uwa wu Kuza, Kuza awa si ningur nitum kop Hiridus. Neni Suzanatu, neni amba nung nidum. Amba ma bana vuu ki yi koˈ man, anam ani Yesu nebi amun koma ndum ma.Joanna the wife of Herod’s household manager Chuza, Susanna, and many others. These women were ministering to them out of their own means.

4Mi andishir nidum ba dibi bing ri ntutun kankang ta nyi ni Yesu, asiwa anik ba ankpyeng ayama.While a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from town after town, He told them this parable:

5“Ni tip na koma tip bibi arum ama. Asi ming ku iyii bibi ma, asi nung ya roku tsir. Asi kwang nga, asi nunor abi shu ba sara.“A farmer went out to sow his seed. And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, where it was trampled, and the birds of the air devoured it.

6Nung ya ni kpyeng sher itu kpayik. Mi yani ru si ya kur, ti ba amashir abuma.Some fell on rocky ground, and when it came up, the seedlings withered because they had no moisture.

7Nung ya ni roku ming nchong, siba fur ndo, asi ankakiki amuera nang.Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up with it and choked the seedlings.

8Ni bibi nung yani roku ming mmimi didik, yani nik kpyeng agin na gin nang yami na dik atip pa.” Mi na ban ama, asi awa gi kor tadi, “Nisi ne atong ayi wo, aba wo.”Still other seed fell on good soil, where it sprang up and produced a crop—a hundredfold.” As Jesus said this, He called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”

9Amun kop ma bana rip wu, asi ani ankpyeng ayama adi.Then His disciples asked Him what this parable meant.

10Asiwa adi, gina abama, na tanyima gina bi gi song Arik. Tasi mbira andishira, se ni ankpyeng. Bati sung ayi ti ba yik, nema baba ti yik baˈ. Bati shera atong, tiba wo, nema baba ti wo baˈ.He replied, “The knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to others I speak in parables, so that, ‘though seeing, they may not see; though hearing, they may not understand.’

11“Kiyami ankpyeng ayama aban asi ya. Bibi ma, kasi reng Arik.Now this is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God.

12Tasi bibi kami ni roku tsir, kasi mi andishir abami na wo reng Arik, asi Nirem atsoˈ ka ngura asusun aman, ti kɨr aba ta nyima baˈ, tiba yik ta shur.The seeds along the path are those who hear, but the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved.

13Bibi kami ni roku itu kpayik, kasi mi andishir ta wo reng, si aba ta ka ni nyer. Abiba ma, baba asi ne aring ba'. Bati tanyima yi vin nkpang tsap, mi tun tsar ti nyi, na aba tag zup didik man asher.The seeds on rocky ground are those who hear the word and receive it with joy, but they have no root. They believe for a season, but in the time of testing, they fall away.

14Bibi kami ni roku ming nchong, kasi mi andishir bami na wo reng, basi ming ku tsin man, ni nyer ki koˈ, nebi wop ki gong mmimi ni tsoˈ ba itu, yani mmuer ba nang, ti dung ba bana gi nik npyeng didik baˈ.The seeds that fell among the thorns are those who hear, but as they go on their way, they are choked by the worries, riches, and pleasures of this life, and their fruit does not mature.

15Bibi kami ni roku mmimi didik, kasi mi andishir abami na wo reng Arik, bana ta ka susun gin ta girka, ta tir mgbangbang, ta nam ndum ma naka ta nik npyeng.But the seeds on good soil are those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, cling to it, and by persevering produce a crop.

16“Ba wami ati mor kider ta kung nga ni rin, ko aba neya awoˈ kikur. Oo, se aba neya iba ku song ma, ti dung abami ati rir, aba yik der ra.No one lights a lamp and covers it with a jar or puts it under a bed. Instead, he sets it on a stand, so those who enter can see the light.

17Ti koneni yami ni sung rer ati bura aruma, ni kiyami na akung nga ati gira ruma baku der.For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be made known and brought to light.

18Gina bi nanam to mi gina wo ankpyeng. Ti awami asi ni ki, ati gyo' adom wu ma, nema awami atsoˈ basi ni kinung ba', ti vung vin yami ayik awa sima neya, ati taya ri newu.”Pay attention, therefore, to how you listen. Whoever has will be given more, but whoever does not have, even what he thinks he has will be taken away from him.”

19Iyama Yesu neni amun zuman bana nyi ti aba yik Yesu, nema ba bana gi tip koma nawu ba', ti andishir basi nidum.Then Jesus’ mother and brothers came to see Him, but they were unable to reach Him because of the crowd.

20Asi nung awa adi Yesu, “Iyami ne mun zumin aku tir abum, bati ba yik wa.”He was told, “Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to see You.”

21Asi awa tanyima ta adi ba, “Iya mung ne mun zu mbor asi boboˈ abami awo reng Arik ta dzip ka.”But He replied, “My mother and brothers are those who hear the word of God and carry it out.”

22Arika nung nga ma Yesu adi amun kop ma, “Kwara bi zor nya ti koma gong ku.” Asi aba agura rir gum nung ta vung zor.One day Jesus said to His disciples, “Let us cross to the other side of the lake.” So He got into a boat with them and set out.

23Basi ming ku tsin, asi nna ya vung wu. Asi gbungbu mashir ya gur nya. Asi mgbungbu ya tur amashir ashur gum ma, mi gum ma kati jirim amashir, siba vung reng anne awowon.As they sailed, He fell asleep, and a windstorm came down on the lake, so that the boat was being swamped, and they were in great danger.

24Asi amun kop ma akoma ti shim wu, siba adi, “Atikop, Atikop, kwara ti dar.” Asi awa kama shim, ta tsing mgbungbu ma nebi nfu amashira, asi ya gbur tir ryot.The disciples went and woke Him, saying, “Master, Master, we are perishing!” Then Jesus got up and rebuked the wind and the raging waters, and they subsided, and all was calm.

25Asi awa adi amun kop ma, “Zup didik mina yasi ani?” Nema shishi ni tiba, kiyama ni tu ba susun awowon, tadi akpa man, Awama asi nga? Anik mgbungbu nebi amashir anu tiba dzip ki ban ma.“Where is your faith?” He asked. Frightened and amazed, they asked one another, “Who is this? He commands even the winds and the water, and they obey Him!”

26Mi bana rir ming mmimi Garasinawa, yami si gar andzang ni nya Galili.Then they sailed to the region of the Gerasenes, across the lake from Galilee.

27Mi Yesu na ji mmimi tong nya, ankyaˈ si nung ni ntuna awa na nyi nawu, asi ni anerim. Na amin adibi retan sang nga antur, nema ba song kop ba', awa nak asong baku agun.When Jesus stepped ashore, He was met by a demon-possessed man from the town. For a long time this man had not worn clothing or lived in a house, but he stayed in the tombs.

28Mi ndishira na yik Yesu, si awa aroku itima, asi awa agi kor kpankpang ta te akwa tadi, “Mmi ani ni ngga, Yesu Zu Arik ni Shuyi? Ngga ben wa, kɨr tun ngga tsar ba'.”When the man saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before Him, shouting in a loud voice, “What do You want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You not to torture me!”

29Ti Yesu naka amin atsing anerima aba wong aru ta dung ndishira. Ankpang nidum anerim ma amin na angur wu. Baya amin na rop wu ne aririˈ nkor adza ne yo', ne dza nung atiyen ropa. Anerim ma ba war wu gyo' ming ankwang mi ba nung.For Jesus had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. Many times it had seized him, and though he was bound with chains and shackles, he had broken the chains and been driven by the demon into solitary places.

30Yesu na arip wu, “Saˈ mi si nga?” Asi adi, “Nidum,” ti anerim ma ba mwe ming kpama.“What is your name?” Jesus asked. “Legion,” he replied, because many demons had gone into him.

31Anerima ba vung ben Yesu kɨr aba dung ba koma ming ba ku dar ba'.And the demons kept begging Jesus not to order them to go into the Abyss.

32Abuma addi nidum ba dibi iri gar nkpang. Ankyaˈ anerim ma aba ben Yesu aba dung ba rɨr ming addi ma. Asi awa tanyima.There on the hillside a large herd of pigs was feeding. So the demons begged Jesus to let them enter the pigs, and He gave them permission.

33Mi anerima na aruri ni ndishira, ta rɨr ming addi ma. Asi boboˈ addi ma ba gur ni tsur ta koma ming gar nya ku rim, asiba kpyeng asher ming nya ta kpyi.Then the demons came out of the man and went into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and was drowned.

34Mi abi ber addi ma bana yik kiyami ni nam, asi aba tsura rɨr tsip, ni vɨn ntun ti ba ban kiyami bana yik.When those tending the pigs saw what had happened, they ran off and reported this in the town and countryside.

35Andishir bana dibi ru tiba to kiyami ni nam. Mi bana nyi ni Yesu, siba ayik ndishira awami anerima bana ru ari ma, na sung antur, ta ko song iti Yesu. Si shishi ya tiba.So the people went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus and found the man whom the demons had left, sitting at Jesus’ feet, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.

36Abami na yik kiyama, asiba ban andishir mi ni sine anerima na ti ta wyer.Meanwhile, those who had seen it reported how the demon-possessed man had been healed.

37Boboˈ andishir gar Garasinawa siba ben Yesu aba dung ba mmimi man, ti shishi ni tiba awowon. Asi Yesu rir gum ku amashira, ta kama koma.Then all the people of the region of the Gerasenes asked Jesus to depart from them, because great fear had taken hold of them. So He got into the boat and started back.

38Ndishira awami anerima na aru ri nawu, na ben Yesu aba ta nyima awa ba dzip wu. Nema Yesu bana ta nyima baˈ. Ta diwu,The man whom the demons had left begged to go with Jesus. But He sent him away, saying,

39“Kam koma kop, tika ti ban kiki kpingkpyaˈ ya mi Arik na nam wa.” Asi ndishira, koma koneni ming tsip ta dibi ban kiki ya mi Yesu na nam wu.“Return home and describe how much God has done for you.” So the man went away and proclaimed all over the town how much Jesus had done for him.

40Mi Yesu na kama nga ari nya, andishir nidum na ta wu, ti bana dibi ngup wu.When Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed Him, for they had all been waiting for Him.

41Asi ndishir nung ni saˈ Yayirus etum, ming ku ankpyingkpyaˈ kop ku bing Yahudawa, na nyi ta tar agbarung iti Yesu. Ta ben Yesu aba koma kop ma,Just then a synagogue leader named Jairus came and fell at Jesus’ feet. He begged Him to come to his house,

42ti awa sini ivama gin ankyaˈ, awami asi ne amun ashe awur ne waa, ako kur anu ku. Mi Yesu asi ming ku tsin asi bing nga ya mmo wu kowuni gar.because his only daughter, who was about twelve, was dying. As Jesus went with him, the crowds pressed around Him,

43Uwa nung asi ming andishira, na ti je ku iro ashe wur ne waa, adibi zor agi. Na nwun boboˈ ki yami asima naya bi wop auwu, ba awami na gi nam wu.including a woman who had suffered from bleeding for twelve years. She had spent all her money on physicians, but no one was able to heal her.

44Na dzip gong Yesu si awa saˈ koˈ tong ter antura ma, asi abubuma zor agi ma gbutir chip.She came up behind Jesus and touched the fringe of His cloak, and immediately her bleeding stopped.

45Yesu rip, “Asi nga atu ngga?” Mi boboˈ' man bana atun, ankyaˈ Bitrus adi, “Atikop, andishir na kamwa gong kowuni gar, ta kung wa.”“Who touched Me?” Jesus asked. But they all denied it. “Master,” said Peter, “the people are crowding and pressing against You.”

46Asi Yesu adi, “Nung na tuu ngga. Ngga ni wo tsi yani ru ri ni ngga.”But Jesus declared, “Someone touched Me, for I know that power has gone out from Me.”

47Mi uwama na yik Yesu na gi, bati ya sung rer ba', asi awa atip anyi ta wyir kpa, ta roku iti ma. Ta aban iti andishir boboˈ', kiyami ni dung awa na tuu Yesu, nebi mi na wyer abubuma.Then the woman, seeing that she could not escape notice, came trembling and fell down before Him. In the presence of all the people, she explained why she had touched Him and how she had immediately been healed.

48Asi awa diwu, “Iva mung” zup didik mi, ni dung wa wyer. Wabi koma keke.“Daughter,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you. Go in peace.”

49Bana dzen areng ater ba', asi nitum nung awa ari kop Yayirus, ningur ni kop ku bing. Tadi Yayirus, “Dung gin nitsar aba song ashi, ti vami naka kuu.”While He was still speaking, someone arrived from the house of the synagogue leader. “Your daughter is dead,” he told Jairus. “Do not bother the Teacher anymore.”

50Mi Yesu na wo ama, asi adi Yayirus, “Kɨr ti shishi baˈ, wabi tanyima susun ankyaˈ, ati wyer.”But Jesus overheard them and said to Jairus, “Do not be afraid; just believe, and she will be healed.”

51Mi Yesu na rir kop Yayirus, bana dung nung na rɨr ndo nawu baˈ, anaˈ asi ne Bitrus neni Yohana neni Yakubu, neni ada ma vɨn uwama neni iyama.When He entered the house, He did not allow anyone to go in with Him except Peter, John, James, and the child’s father and mother.

52Koni nga adibi gin ta ti ruru atu yi vɨn uwama. Yesu nadi, “Gina bi dung gin na, vɨn uwama bana kuu baˈ, ako kur nna.”Meanwhile, everyone was weeping and mourning for her. But Jesus said, “Stop weeping; she is not dead but asleep.”

53Asiba amuar wu, ti bana gi ti vɨn uwama naka kuu baˈ.And they laughed at Him, knowing that she was dead.

54Yesu na vung wu koˈ si awa gi kor tadi, “Va mung, wabi gur.”But Jesus took her by the hand and called out, “Child, get up!”

55Si rim ma kam nga, na gur zagin. Asi Yesu adi ba, aba nik wu kinung aba ri.Her spirit returned, and at once she got up. And He directed that she be given something to eat.

56Adida ma siba shur vɨr kiyami bana yik, nema Yesu na tsing ba kɨr aba ban nung kiyami ni nam baˈ.Her parents were astounded, but Jesus ordered them not to tell anyone what had happened.
