Bɛte muntofi-i bɛ nɔŋa bɛ nɔŋa, bɛ bɛniiŋ bɛ tiifi bɛnchi bɛ Nyɔ-ɔ mɔɔ bɛkaaŋ bɛ kwɛɛŋ lɛ,BSBBSB: One day as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple courts and proclaiming the gospel, the chief priests and scribes, together with the elders, came up to Him.
2. 2ASJse bii li wuu laa, “Tee nɛɛ bee wi wu nyɛɔ buŋga le ɔ ni ɔ feti biee bini. Ɛ noo wu nyɛɔ buŋga bulu?”BSBBSB: “Tell us,” they said, “by what authority are You doing these things, and who gave You this authority?”
3. 3ASJJiso tuu li bee le, “Ŋgii mbii tɛ fiee li be-eŋ. Nɛ tee mi dɛɛni.BSBBSB: “I will also ask you a question,” Jesus replied. “Tell Me:
4. 4ASJBuŋga bu Jɔɔŋ tɛ̀ lisi bɛniiŋ lu lidzɔɔ, ɛ Nyɔ yi liboo yi tɛ̀ nyɛ wu mɔɔ wiwoŋ le?”BSBBSB: John’s baptism—was it from heaven, or from men?”
5. 5ASJBe se biee be kɔɔ ntsooŋ bebe le, “Ɛ tɛ tuu le ɛ Nyɔ yi liboo yi tɛ̀ nyɛ, gii bii li bee li laa ɛ la fi tɛ̀ fɛ le tɛ beŋ kɛ li Jɔɔŋ li kɛ le?BSBBSB: They deliberated among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will ask, ‘Why did you not believe him?’
6. 6ASJSe nuuŋ le ɛ tɛ tuu le ɛ wiwoŋ wu tɛ̀ nyɛ, kɛ bɛniiŋ gii be tomɛ bee bɛ ta, kifɛ be beenchi chɛɛŋ chɛɛŋ le Jɔɔŋ tɛ̀ nuuŋ ntomfɔŋ wu Nyɔ.”BSBBSB: But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are convinced that John was a prophet.”
7. 7ASJBɛdɛɛni be se tuu le, “Tɛ kii yɛ wi wu tɛ̀ nyɛ kɛ.”BSBBSB: So they answered that they did not know where it was from.
8. 8ASJJiso se tuu tee li bee le, “Kɛ nuuŋ ntɛ ntee tɛ beŋ wi wu nyɛ mi buŋga le ni mfeti biee bini kɛ.”BSBBSB: And Jesus replied, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
9. 9ASJJiso se dza wa ŋgaŋgaa chimu li bɛniiŋ li le, “Wi wumu tɛ̀ niŋ wɛ wu muntaaŋ mu bɛ feti mbiiŋ lu. Tɛ̀ gɛɛ wɛ wulu li bɛniiŋ li, tuu dza gɛɛŋ li kitoŋ kimu-u, gɛɛŋ tsi le ŋge.BSBBSB: Then He proceeded to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard, rented it out to some tenants, and went away for a long time.
10. 10ASJLe mfi wu bɛ ti kee bɛ kɔchɛ, toŋ ŋwani wu nimɛ wumu le gɛɛŋ li wɛ wu muntaaŋ mu bɛ feti mbiiŋ lu wɛɛ, fi mwee muntaaŋ. Le ŋwaŋ wulu gɛɛŋ, bɛniiŋ bɛ tɛ̀ gɛɛ wɛ li bee baa, tuu be too wu, be kooŋ bɛ wu kaari bɔ kilɛrɛ.BSBBSB: At harvest time, he sent a servant to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the tenants beat the servant and sent him away empty-handed.
11. 11ASJWi wulu tuu toŋ ŋwani wu nimɛ wumu, be ka be too wu, be nyɛ wu buya, be kooŋ bɛ wu to lijiŋ bɔ kilɛrɛ.BSBBSB: So he sent another servant, but they beat him and treated him shamefully, sending him away empty-handed.
12. 12ASJMwɛ tuu toŋ wumu bo bɛtɛɛtu, be too wu, be nyɛ wu bibaa, be lɔŋ wu lɛkuuŋ.BSBBSB: Then he sent a third, but they wounded him and threw him out.
13. 13ASJWi wu wɛ wu muntaaŋ mu bɛ feti mbiiŋ lu wulu se beechɛ laa, ‘Ŋgii ŋge la le? Dɛɛni ŋgii ntoŋ nuuŋ ŋwanɛŋ wu nuuŋ shéŋ yɛŋ. Semukɛ be gii be guuŋ wu.’BSBBSB: ‘What shall I do?’ asked the owner of the vineyard. ‘I will send my beloved son. Perhaps they will respect him.’
14. 14ASJLe ŋwaŋ wɛ dza gɛɛŋ lɛ liwɛ, bɛniiŋ bɛ tɛ̀ gɛɛ wɛ li bee baa ŋɛŋ wu, be bɛchi be tsuundi li yi yi bee le, ‘Kini nuuŋ kinjila ki wi wu wɛ wuni. Tɛ wo ki, wɛ wuni se to wusɛŋ.’BSBBSB: But when the tenants saw the son, they discussed it among themselves and said, ‘This is the heir. Let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’
15. 15ASJSe be biee be kɔɔ wu, be bo bɛ wu li wɛ wu muntaaŋ mu bɛ feti mbiiŋ lu-u, be wo wu.” Le Jiso tee lɛ, se bii laa, “Nɛ beechi le wi wu wɛ wulu gii bɛ ge la bɛ bɛniiŋ baa le?BSBBSB: So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them?
16. 16ASJNtee beŋ le, gii bɛ woyɛ bɛniiŋ bɛlu, gɛɛ wɛ wu muntaaŋ mu bɛ feti mbiiŋ lu wulu li bɛniiŋ bamu-u.” Le bɛniiŋ bɛlu woo lɛ, be kasi yi le, “Nyɔ nuuŋ tɛ beŋ kɛ.”BSBBSB: He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others.” And when the people heard this, they said, “May such a thing never happen!”
17. 17ASJJiso bichɛ be, bii laa, “Fiee fi bɛ tsɛɛ lɛ Kiŋwaati ki Nyɔ-ɔ kini tiiti le la, fi nuuŋ le, ‘Tɛtɛ chi bɛniiŋ bɛ ŋgwanu tɛ̀ faaŋ chɛɛ, chi tɛ̀ kaari nɛɛ chi to tɛtɛ chi fɛ boo chi yi-i ni?’BSBBSB: But Jesus looked directly at them and said, “Then what is the meaning of that which is written: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone’?
18. 18ASJTɛtɛ chilu chini chɛɛ, ɛ wi we lu chi-i, kɛ mwɛ gii kpɔɔshɛ, ɛ chi we li wi-i, kɛ chi gii chi gɔɔri mwɛ li biŋkɛ-ɛ”.BSBBSB: Everyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom it falls will be crushed.”
19. 19ASJSi Jiso tɛ̀ wa ŋgaŋgaa chilu lɛ, bɛniiŋ bɛ tiifi bɛnchi bɛ Nyɔ-ɔ, bɛ bɛ te muntofi bɛ nɔŋa bɛ nɔŋa bɛchi be wɛki le be kɔɔ wu nɛɛ fe. Be tɛ̀ wɛki le be kɔɔ wu kifɛ be tɛ̀ kɛɛ le tɛ̀ wa ŋgaŋgaa chilu nuuŋ li bee, se nuuŋ le be tɛ̀ chɛndi bɛniiŋ.BSBBSB: When the scribes and chief priests realized that Jesus had spoken this parable against them, they sought to arrest Him that very hour. But they were afraid of the people.
20. 20ASJBe se bɛchi be biki bikaa biee lɛjiŋ lɛjiŋ, be waaŋ bɛtoŋkii, be toŋ le be gɛɛŋ be toŋ ŋkii be ni be feti si bɛniiŋ bɛ nuuŋ tsaaŋ. Be tɛ̀ feti lɛ le be se woo fiee lɛ wuu wa, be se kɔɔ wu be nyɛ li tsaŋ yi ŋgɔmina wu Lom wu tɛ̀ sɛki kimbɛ kɛɛ.BSBBSB: So they watched Him closely and sent spies who pretended to be sincere. They were hoping to catch Him in His words in order to hand Him over to the rule and authority of the governor.
21. 21ASJBɛntoŋkii bɛlu dza be bii li wuu laa, “Wi wu ntiifɛ, tɛ kii le biee bi ɔ tiiti mɔɔ bi ɔ tiifi nuuŋ bi tsaaŋ, ɔ ti bichi yɛ bɛniiŋ li lii kɛ. Ɔ ti tiifi chɛɛŋ nuuŋ fiee fi Nyɔ wɛki le bɛniiŋ ni be feti.BSBBSB: “Teacher,” they inquired, “we know that You speak and teach correctly. You show no partiality but teach the way of God in accordance with the truth.
22. 22ASJTɛ se biiti baa laa nchi beenchi le tɛ ni tɛ suuti kiŋwaati li Kaisa Mfɔŋ wu Lo-om le?”BSBBSB: Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?”
23. 23ASJJiso se kɛɛ fiee fi be gwenini bɛ fi, tee le,BSBBSB: But Jesus saw through their duplicity and said to them,
24. 24ASJ“Bɛ yɛɛŋ bɛ danali mumkpaŋ ŋɛŋ.” Be bɛ bɛ wu se bii li bee laa, “Kikoo kini nuuŋ ki noo lɛ, bukooŋ buni se nuuŋ bu noo lɛ?” Be tuu le, “Ɛ ki Kaisa.”BSBBSB: “Show Me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?” “Caesar’s,” they answered.
25. 25ASJJiso se tee le, “Nɛ nyɛɛ yɛɛŋ li Kaisa fiee fi nuuŋ fi Kaisa, nɛɛ nyɛɛ li Nyɔ-ɔ fi nuuŋ fi Nyɔ-ɔ.”BSBBSB: So Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.”
26. 26ASJLe bɛniiŋ baa woo fi yaa be, be baa nshiiŋ be mɛɛŋ ki kɛmɛ kɛ fiee fi be nuuŋ be kɔɔ wu lu kɛ wa tɛ be bɛ ntusu wulu be ba nshiiŋ.BSBBSB: And they were unable to trap Him in His words before the people. And amazed at His answer, they fell silent.
27. 27ASJBɛniiŋ bamu li kintutu ki Bɛsadusii tɛ̀ dza be bɛ le be bii fiee li Jiso. Bɛsadusii bani tɛ̀ nuuŋ bɛniiŋ bɛ tɛ̀ tiiti le bɛniiŋ nuuŋ tɛ̀ kaari le be bo li kwe-e kɛ.BSBBSB: Then some of the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to question Him.
28. 28ASJBe se bɛ be bii li wuu laa, “Wi wu ntiifɛ, Mɔɔsɛ tɛ̀ tsɛɛ lɛ nchi wusɛŋ le, ‘Ɛ wi kɛmi kwɛɛŋ, mwɛ kwi bee wu mbiɛ ŋwaŋ nsiŋ, kɛ ŋwaani kɛmi le dzɔɔ kwɛɛŋ wulu bee wu biɛ bɔɔŋ li bukooŋ bu ŋku ŋwaani.’BSBBSB: “Teacher,” they said, “Moses wrote for us that if a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife but no children, the man is to marry his brother’s widow and raise up offspring for him.
29. 29ASJDɛɛni, bɔɔŋ bɛ wi wumu tɛ̀ nuuŋ mfomɛnyaaŋ, le wu kaaŋ wɛ kɛmɛ kwɛɛŋ kwi, bee wu kɛmi yɛ ŋwaŋ kɛ.BSBBSB: Now there were seven brothers. The first one married a wife but died childless.
30. 30ASJWu biki wɛ tuu dzɔ kwɛɛŋ wulu, kwi tɛ ŋwaŋ siŋ.BSBBSB: Then the second
31. 31ASJWu biki wumu tuu dzɔ kwɛɛŋ wulu, kwi tɛ ŋwaŋ siŋ. Fi tɛ̀ ka nɛɛ lɛ bɛ bɔɔŋ bɛ mfomɛnyaaŋ baa bɛchu, wu be wumu ti mɛɛŋ ki biɛ kɛ ŋwaŋ bɛ kwɛɛŋ wulu kɛ.BSBBSB: and the third married the widow, and in the same way all seven died, leaving no children.
32. 32ASJLi mɛrisɛ kwɛɛŋ wulu kwi tɛ.BSBBSB: And last of all, the woman died.
33. 33ASJSi bɛniiŋ bɛ mfomɛnyaaŋ bani tɛ̀ dzɔ kwɛɛŋ wulu bɛchu lɛ, mfi wu bɛniiŋ gii be bo li kwe-e, kwɛɛŋ wulu gii ni nuuŋ kwɛɛ noo?”BSBBSB: So then, in the resurrection, whose wife will she be? For all seven were married to her.”
34. 34ASJJiso tuu li bee le, “Li mfi wu dɛɛni wuni, buniŋ bee bukɛɛŋ feti baa bugoo, bɛniiŋ nyɛɛ bɔɔŋ li ba-a.BSBBSB: Jesus answered, “The sons of this age marry and are given in marriage.
35. 35ASJSe nuuŋ le, bɛniiŋ bɛ kɔchɛ le ke be kɛmɛ kintsii li mfi wu bɛɛ li, mfi wu be kaari be bo li kwe-e, be nuuŋ tɛ tuu le be fɛ bugoo kɛ, bɛniiŋ mɛɛŋ yɛ le be nyɛ bɔɔŋ li ba-a kɛ.BSBBSB: But those who are considered worthy to share in the age to come and in the resurrection from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage.
36. 36ASJBe mɛɛŋ yɛ be kwi kɛ, kifɛ be gii be ni be nuuŋ si bɛnchindaa bɛ Nyɔ-ɔ kituŋ. Be gii be nuuŋ bɔɔŋ bɛ Nyɔ-ɔ, kifɛ be kaari baa be bo li kwe-e kituŋ.BSBBSB: In fact, they can no longer die, because they are like the angels. And since they are sons of the resurrection, they are sons of God.
37. 37ASJChɛɛŋ wulu nuuŋ le Mɔɔsɛ kibɛɛ tɛ̀ naanyɛ le bɛniiŋ gii be kaari be bo li kwe-e si tɛ̀ tsɛɛ kii kiti ki tɛ̀ ŋɛŋ ki duti. Tɛ̀ teeŋ Taa lɛ kintsii ki kiŋwaati kilu le Nyɔ yi Abrahaŋ, Nyɔ yi Adzi mɔɔ Nyɔ yi Yakɔ.BSBBSB: Even Moses demonstrates that the dead are raised, in the passage about the burning bush. For he calls the Lord ‘the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’
38. 38ASJƐ tɛ̀ teenyi lɛ, kɛ tiitɔɔ le biŋkwi bini mɛɛŋ biɛɛ we, Nyɔ ti nuuŋ yɛ Nyɔ yi biŋkwi kɛ, Nyɔ ti nuuŋ nuuŋ Nyɔ yi bɛniiŋ bɛ nuuŋ lu, kifɛ li Nyɔ-ɔ, bɛniiŋ bɛchu mɛɛŋ bɛyoŋ.”BSBBSB: He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to Him all are alive.”
39. 39ASJSi Jiso tɛ̀ yɔ lɛ, bɛniiŋ bɛ tɛ̀ doonchi bɛnchi bɛ Nyɔ-ɔ baa tee le, “Wi wu ntiifɛ, ɔ bɔsɔɔ yi ɔ tuu bujɔŋ.”BSBBSB: Some of the scribes answered, “Teacher, You have spoken well!”
40. 40ASJNɛɛ lɛ, wi ti mɛɛŋ ki tuu kɛ le bii fiee li wuu kɛ.BSBBSB: And they did not dare to question Him any further.
41. 41ASJJiso se dza bii fiee li bee laa, “Bɛniiŋ geeŋ bɛ tiiti le Kinsofu ki Nyɔ tɛ̀ kaachɛ nuuŋ ŋwanɛ Mfɔŋ Daafi?BSBBSB: Then Jesus declared, “How can it be said that the Christ is the Son of David?
42. 42ASJNɛ kii yɛ le Daafi kibɛɛ tɛ̀ tsɛɛ lɛ kiŋwaati kin'yɔɔnchɛ le, ‘Taa Nyɔ tɛ̀ tee li Taa li le Shee lɛ kibɛnɛ keŋ ki kigɔŋɛ-ɛ,BSBBSB: For David himself says in the book of Psalms: ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand
43. 43ASJgɛɛŋ bo mfi wu ŋgii ŋgiiki bɛniiŋ bo bɛ mbani-i le ɔ tɔmi bikaa bio li bee si kiga ko.’BSBBSB: until I make Your enemies a footstool for Your feet.”’
44. 44ASJƐ Daafi teenyi wu le Taa, fi geeŋ se tuu ni nuuŋ ŋwani?”BSBBSB: Thus David calls Him ‘Lord.’ So how can He be David’s son?”
45. 45ASJJiso tuu dza yeti li bɔɔŋ bee bɛ kintutu-u, bɛniiŋ bɛchu wuki. Tiiti li bee le,BSBBSB: In the hearing of all the people, Jesus said to His disciples,
46. 46ASJ“Dzɔɔ yɛɛŋ mfi, bɛ bɛniiŋ bɛ tiifi bɛnchi bɛ Nyɔ-ɔ.

They like to walk around in long robes, and they love the greetings in the marketplaces, the chief seats in the synagogues, and the places of honor at banquets.
47. 47ASJƐ nɛɛ be bɛ tusi bukɛɛŋ bɛɛŋku-u lijiŋ, be yɛŋgi be fii biee bi bee, be tuu be feti nlɛkɛ li Nyɔ-ɔ wu deendi le be ni be doonchi yi.
