At that time some of those present told Jesus about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.

BSB
BSB:
To this He replied,
“Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered this way?
3
BKW
Betka, mɛ lɛɛ bin náá: Bi ɛ di ààliig elyem ɔ, biyɔ djas pe ɛ waagwyɛ dáa bot binɔk.

BSB
BSB:
Then Jesus told this parable:
“A man had a fig tree that was planted in his vineyard. He went to look for fruit on it but did not find any.
7
BKW
Nyɛ eezɛke nɛ mot di baal pyeeb vin tak ɔ: “Beea, e moo mos ɛ́, membu melɛl mɛ di zyɛ, zɛsaa ɛbɔ́k ɛ bhum le fiigh'ak. Mɛ ààbela. Tsaala yɛ, etɛɛ náá, yɛ ààgoka nɛ ɛnɔɔ yenek boo di tin gwyes.”
BSB
BSB:
So he said to the keeper of the vineyard, ‘Look, for the past three years I have come to search for fruit on this fig tree and haven’t found any. Therefore cut it down! Why should it use up the soil?’
8
BKW
Tin, mot di baal pyeeb vin tak e zɛbɔɔza nɛ nɛ náá: “Ghɛŋ, pookobaabet nyɛ mbu yak. Mɛ waapu guk e mengwoob. Bhii tak da mɛ ɛ́ wa eka nɛ ezeeza, ye needjɛ nyɛ ghwyil ɛsam.

BSB:
‘Sir,’ the man replied, ‘leave it alone again this year, until I dig around it and fertilize it.
9
BKW
Deenek ye ɛ́ nɛ ghwyil ɛwum e mbu di zyɛ yenek. Nyɛ di, ààka wum ɔ, da wɔ ɛ́ ka tsaal yɛ.”»

BSB:
If it bears fruit next year, fine. But if not, you can cut it down.’”

“Woman, you are set free from your disability.”

BSB
BSB:
But the synagogue leader was indignant that Jesus had healed on the Sabbath. “There are six days for work,” he told the crowd. “So come and be healed on those days and not on the Sabbath.”
15
BKW
Ghɛŋ zokazɛbɔɔza nɛ nɛ náá: «Bi ɛ́ bot ɛ mɛdjhaaz pɛ ɛko, bhimis pɛ si. Dwoo saba mot nɛ mot aadi etii ngɔmbɛ nɛghu an yɛ étɛp ɛkɛdjɛ bɛ edee nɛ mɛdii, etsal é?
BSB
BSB:
“You hypocrites!”
the Lord replied.
“Does not each of you on the Sabbath untie his ox or donkey from the stall and lead it to water?
16
BKW
Moma yak ɛ́ ngɔt tɔ bɛdha ɛ Abalaam. Tin, kabela náá, Satan naazelookɔl nyɛ. Nyɛ moo mos ɛ́ nɛ membu kam nɛ etɛn nɛ elɛl (18). Yɛ ààgoka náá, nyɛ tsikaa e dwoo saba?»

Then should not this daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has kept bound for eighteen long years, be released from her bondage on the Sabbath day?”

BSB
BSB:
When Jesus said this, all His adversaries were humiliated. And the whole crowd rejoiced at all the glorious things He was doing.
18
BKW
Yezu eebaazɛke náá: «Ɛyoŋ ɛ Zɛɛb ko kɔa nɛ yak mbi sa? Mɛ goka nɛ ɛgek yɛ nɛ yaa sonok?
BSB
BSB:
Then Jesus asked,
“What is the kingdom of God like? To what can I compare it?
19
BKW
Ɛyoŋ ɛ Zɛɛb ɛ́ dáa bhek na sikɛ-sikɛ di ee djóoaa mutaad ɛ. É sok mot di nɔɔ yɛ kɛbɛ yɛ tɔ bok ɛ, tin, bhek ɛpekwyil, wyee zyɛ boo le, enen lóo mɛk mɔɔ kɔ elɛɛ e tak.»
BSB
BSB:
It is like a mustard seed that a man tossed into his garden. It grew and became a tree, and the birds of the air nested in its branches.”
