Tin, bot ɛbuɛpe eezɛsaala nyɛ é nyel pɛ kyee nyɛ nadi ɛ́, étɛp bɛ neezɛgwak mɛkpa ɛ Zɛɛb.BSBBSB: On one occasion, while Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret with the crowd pressing in on Him to hear the word of God,
2. 2BKWNyɛ eezɛbee é ɛboŋ ɛ dii, mɛlɛɛd mɛmbá ye zesɛɛ, bɛlael ɛ mɛwyet naasɛɛ étɛp ɛgwyii mɛwyet mɔɔ.BSBBSB: He saw two boats at the edge of the lake. The fishermen had left them and were washing their nets.
3. 3BKWNyɛ eezɛni tɔ elɛɛd wat. Yiizaag nabɛ ɛ́ yɛ ɛ́ Simɔŋ. Nyɛ ɛ́ booke nɛ nɔɔ náá, bɛ waatiila batsa nɛ ɛboŋ. Bhii tak nyɛ eezɛnɔɔ nyel, disi. Tin, nyɛ moo zɛlyo bot mɛkpa ɛ Zɛɛb.BSBBSB: Jesus got into the boat belonging to Simon and asked him to put out a little from shore. And sitting down, He taught the people from the boat.
4. 4BKWDáa Yezu nasilal ɛlii ɛ, nyɛ ɛ́ booke nɛ Simɔŋ náá: «Tiila kuku dii, bhii tak, da bi ɛ́ la mɛwyet men.»BSBBSB: When Jesus had finished speaking, He said to Simon, “Put out into deep water and let down your nets for a catch.”
5. 5BKWSimɔŋ ɛ́ boozɛbɔɔza nɛ nɛ náá: «Ghɛŋ, bis eegɔɔl tu pum'ak djas mos, ààbela sonok. Tin, dum nɛ mɛkpa mɔ, mɛ ɛpela mɛwyet.»BSBBSB: “Master,” Simon replied, “we have worked hard all night without catching anything. But because You say so, I will let down the nets.”
6. 6BKWDáa bɛ kala mɛwyet ɛ, wɔ gwaa bɛ zɛmɛt bɛsu ɛbuɛpe, mɛwyet mɔɔ moo saa ye neekɛk.BSBBSB: When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to tear.
7. 7BKWBɛ ɛ́ boozɛdjóo bɛsɔ bɔɔ nadi tɔ dhiiti elɛɛd ɔ, bɛ zɛkwyee bɛ. Bɛ ɛ́ boozyɛ. Bɔɔ bela bɛsu, bhii tak, wɔ gwaa bɛ zokazɛlwoodal mɛlɛɛd mɛmbá mɔɔ, mɛlɛɛd ɛkɛɛ saa diida.BSBBSB: So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.
8. 8BKWDáa Simɔŋ Pyɛɛd nabee deenek ɛ, wɔ gwaa nyɛ zɛkwyit mɛboŋ si mɛko ɛ Yezu. Nyɛy nɛ nɛ náá: «Ghɛŋ, tɔ́a yɔ ɛtsetaɛpe nɛ nam, etɛɛ náá, mɛ ɛ́ mot mesyem.»BSBBSB: When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees. “Go away from me, Lord,” he said, “for I am a sinful man.”
9. 9BKWEtɛɛ náá, ɛkɛɛd naadyeebasa nyɛ nɛ bot ɛ nadi tin bɛ nɛ bɛ nɔɔ ɔ sama, dum nɛ yenek mbi bɛtɛ nɛ bɛsu ɛ bɛ nagó ɛ.BSBBSB: For he and his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken,
10. 10BKWƐkɛɛd ɛ tak baazɛmɛt dɔɔ nɛ Zak nɛ Zaŋ bɔɔ Zɛbɛdɛ bot ɛ bɛ nɛ bɛ nɔɔ nadi ɔ. É di'enek Yezu ɛ́ booke nɛ Simɔŋ náá: «Nàbem ba, etɛɛ náá, kana dwoo pan mos'ak, wɔy aakadi ɛ́ lael mɛwyet étɛp ɛmet bot.»BSBBSB: and so were his partners James and John, the sons of Zebedee. “Do not be afraid,” Jesus said to Simon. “From now on you will catch men.”
11. 11BKWBhii bɛ nasel mɛlɛɛd é ɛboŋ ɛ, bɛ eezɛdhuugal esesɛɛ bɔɔ djas, bɛ eezɛdu Yezu.BSBBSB: And when they had brought their boats ashore, they left everything and followed Him.
12. 12BKWYezu nadi ɛ́, kɔ dhiiti dɛl, wɔ gwaa dhiiti mot nadi nɛ ɛbɛ́ ɛ zezam ɔ, zɛtiila pɛ daa lɛ, kwyit mɛboŋ, bhwoob si, zɛdjaala nɛ nɛ náá: «Ghɛŋ, lyem'ɔ ɛ́ kwyɛl ɔɔ, wɔ ɛ́ nɛ ghwyil ɛtsik mɛ, da nyel'am ɛ́ bula dɛɛ.»BSBBSB: While Jesus was in one of the towns, a man came along who was covered with leprosy. When he saw Jesus, he fell facedown and begged Him, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”
13. 13BKWYezu eezɛsɛɛb mbɔ, mɛt nyɛ. Nyɛ eezɛke nɛ nɛ náá: «Mɛ eekwyɛl! Tsaka.» É di tak wat, zezam zokasi é nyel mot'enɔk.BSBBSB: Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him.
14. 14BKWTin, nyɛ ɛ́ boozɛdul nyɛ mɛlɔ ɛlyelɛpe náá: «Sa wɔ ààlɛɛ mot sa dhaa wak ɛ. Tɔ́a kɛlyaal nyel pɛ daa ghaa-Zɛɛb, da wɔ ɛ́ kɛdjɛ ebuwa e bɛtit dáa Moiiz nake ɛ́. Etɛp náá, bɛ neetaŋal é di yen dum nɛ tsik wɔ zetsak ɛ.»BSBBSB: “Do not tell anyone,” Jesus instructed him. “But go, show yourself to the priest and present the offering Moses prescribed for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”
15. 15BKWTin, dék'ɛ, nabaazɛkala dhaa tyɛ kɔ mɛl djas, bot ɛbuɛpe nadi ezyɛ, zɛgwak mɛlyo mɛ Zɛɛb nɛ zɛsaa tsik pɛ daa lɛ.BSBBSB: But the news about Jesus spread all the more, and great crowds came to hear Him and to be healed of their sicknesses.
16. 16BKWYezu nabɛ ɛ́ é ɛtetɔ́ tɔ bal é edi di ààbɛ nɛ bot ɔ, étɛp nyɛ neekɛdjaala.BSBBSB: Yet He frequently withdrew to the wilderness to pray.

Tin, ghwyil ɛ Ghɛŋ Zɛɛb nadi ɛ́ tɔ Yezu étɛp nyɛ neetsik bot ɛ mɛbɛ́.BSBBSB: One day Jesus was teaching, and the Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there. People had come from Jerusalem and from every village of Galilee and Judea, and the power of the Lord was present for Him to heal the sick.
18. 18BKWWɔ gwaa, bɛdhiiti bot zokazyɛ nɛ mot zesɔɔb nɛ ɛbɛ́ ɔ, byaala kɔ mwaala. Bɛ nadi esaa dáa bɛ aaniigal nyɛ tɔ ndjaa étɛp ɛkɛnɛɛg nyɛ si mɛko ɛ Yezu.BSBBSB: Just then some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They tried to bring him inside to set him before Jesus,
19. 19BKWDáa bɛ nadi ààbɛ nɛ dáa bɛ sa ɛ, wɔ gwaa, bot binɔk zokazɛbyet kɔ mii ndjaa, tuu ɛlen tɔ ɛbo, bɛ eezɛsil mbel'enɔk kɔ mwaala yɛ, kuku ɛbwak, zeza nɛ di Yezu nadi ɔ.BSBBSB: but they could not find a way through the crowd. So they went up on the roof and lowered him on his mat through the tiles into the middle of the crowd, right in front of Jesus.
20. 20BKWDáa Yezu nabee ɛdum ɛ koŋ ɛ bot ɛ nazyɛ nɛ mbel tak ɔ, nyɛ ɛ́ boozɛke nɛ mbel náá: «Mɔɔ sɔ'am, mesyem mɔ eepelel.»BSBBSB: When Jesus saw their faith, He said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”
21. 21BKWBɛghaŋ ɛ mɛkana mɛ etsi nɛ eFalizyɛ moo tin nɛ bɛtɛ nɛ esiiza tɔ elyem. Bɔɔ náá: «Yenɔk ɛzɛ di ebyasal Zɛɛb deenek? Nwyak mot di nɛ ghwyil ɛpel mesyem mɛ sɔ mot, bhis Zɛɛb nyɛ ɛmet?»BSBBSB: But the scribes and Pharisees began thinking to themselves, “Who is this man who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”
22. 22BKWDáa Yezu naagu esiiza bɔɔ ɛ, nyɛ ɛ́ booke náá: «Étɛp ye bi di nɛ mbi yenek egeka?BSBBSB: Knowing what they were thinking, Jesus replied, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?
23. 23BKWƐyé di ààdyeebalyel nɛ nen, ɛke ɛ́ náá: “Mesyem mɔ eepelel” ooho, nɛghu ɛke ɛ́ náá: “Wyɛla, da wɔ ɛ́ kɛ”?BSBBSB: Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’?
24. 24BKWYe goka ɛ́, bi gu náá: Sɛɛŋɛlɛ Mɔn Mot ɛ́ nɛ ghwyil ɛpel mesyem mɛ bot kɔ bɔs.» Bhii tak, nyɛ eezɛke nɛ sɔɔbela mot'enɔk náá: «Mɛ ke ɛ́ náá, wyɛla, nɔŋa mwaala yɔ, da wɔ ɛ́ sik pɛ ndjaŋ'ɔ!»BSBBSB: But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on the earth to forgive sins…” He said to the paralytic, “I tell you, get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”
25. 25BKWÉ di'enek wat, bot djas «dhuuu», nɛ mis é nyel mbel, wɔ gwaa, nyɛ zɛwyɛl, ghɛɛ mwaala nyɛ nagheghɛɛaa nɛ yɛ ɛ, zɛnɔɔ nyel, tɔ́ pɛ ndjaŋ'ɛ, nyɛy é duwal Zɛɛb.BSBBSB: And immediately the man stood up before them, took what he had been lying on, and went home glorifying God.
26. 26BKWBot djas naadyeebadjoka, bhii tak bɛ moo duwal Zɛɛb é ɛkeke náá: «Bis dinaa ààpaabee kɔkɔ yak sok!»BSBBSB: Everyone was taken with amazement and glorified God. They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.”

28. 28BKWNgbat, Levi eezɛwyɛl, nyɛ eezɛlik esesɛɛ bɛ djas, du nyɛ.BSBBSB: and Levi got up, left everything, and followed Him.
29. 29BKWBhii tak, Levi eezɛsa ɛbyoŋ tɔ ndjaŋ'ɛ. Bɛtɛ nɛ bɛnɔŋel ɛ epata e lapo, nɛ bɛdhiiti bot ɛbuɛpe nadi ɛ́, lɔɔg wat bɛ nɛ bɛ nɔɔ kɔ mesa.BSBBSB: Then Levi hosted a great banquet for Jesus at his house. A large crowd of tax collectors was there, along with others who were eating with them.
30. 30BKWEFalizyɛ nɛ bɛghaŋ ɛ mɛkana mɛ etsi nadi bɛ nɛ bɛ nɔɔ ɛ nadi elii ɛbiyoɛpe nɛ sa tak ɛlyelɛpe. Bɛ ɛ́ boozɛke nɛ bɛdjekel bɛ náá: «Étɛp ye bi di edɛ é di wat bi nɛ bɛnɔŋel ɛ epata e lapo nɛ bot ɛ di nɛ mbee dék ɔ?»BSBBSB: But the Pharisees and their scribes complained to Jesus’ disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”
31. 31BKWYezu ɛ́ boozɛbɔɔza nɛ nɔɔ náá: «Bot ɛ di mɛnyel ɛnyɔɛpe ɔ, tok nɛ gwyes ngwomel mot étɛp nyɛ neegwom bɛ. Ye ɛ́ membel ɛ di nɛ gwyes mɛgwoma mɛ.BSBBSB: Jesus answered, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.
32. 32BKWMɛ nabɛ ɛ́ ààzyɛ, zɛsaa bot ɛ epiki. Mɛ nazyɛ ɛ́, zɛsaa bot ɛ di gu náá, bɛ ɛ́ bot ɛ mesyem ɔ, étɛp bɛ neeswoola mɛfulu mɔɔ.»BSBBSB: I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”
33. 33BKWEFalizyɛ zokazɛdji Yezu náá: «Bɛdjekel ɛ Zaŋ Nduuel-bot nɛ bɛdjekel bis nɛ tsi edee étɛp mendjaala esok nɛ esok. Étɛp yé bɔ bɛdjekel di ààtsi edee étɛp mendjaala?»BSBBSB: Then they said to Him, “John’s disciples and those of the Pharisees frequently fast and pray, but Yours keep on eating and drinking.”
34. 34BKWWɔ gwaa, Yezu zokabɔɔza nɛ nɔɔ náá: «Bi nakobee sok paa náá, bɛsɔ ɛ mwaaz tsi edee dwoo ɛba, dhi bɛ di lɔɔg wat nɛ mwaaz, mot paazyɛ zɛba moma ɔ? Mɛ ààbee deenek.BSBBSB: Jesus replied, “Can you make the guests of the bridegroom fast while He is with them?
35. 35BKWTin, ɛwala ɛ tak ɛ́ waakum, sɔ'ɔɔ mot zyɛ zɛsa ɛba ɔ, nyɛ waadisaa tɔ lɔɔ. É di tak ɛ́ bɛ aatsi edee.»BSBBSB: But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.”
36. 36BKWYezu eebaazɛbɔɔza bɛ tɔ kana náá: «Ye tok nɛ mot aanyaa kaad na bes étɛp ɛkoobal bet kaad nɛ yɛ. Yɛ sael deenek ɔɔ, pes bes kaad ɛ́ waanyaa bet kaad, tin, pes bes kaad tok nɛ ghwyil ɛlataa é bet kaad.BSBBSB: He also told them a parable: “No one tears a piece of cloth from a new garment and sews it on an old one. If he does, he will tear the new garment as well, and the patch from the new will not match the old.
37. 37BKWYe tok nɛ mot aawa bes mɛnyok tɔ ebhɛɛb na mwa etɛɛ náá, yɛ wyil ɔ, mɛnyok ɛ́ nɛ ghwyil ɛbo ebhɛɛb. Mɛnyok waasee é bɔs tin, bhɛɛb waapulel.BSBBSB: And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the new wine will burst the skins, the wine will spill, and the wineskins will be ruined.
38. 38BKWƐnyɔ náá, mɛnyok mɛ bes waaa tɔ ebhɛɛb na bes!BSBBSB: Instead, new wine is poured into new wineskins.
39. 39BKWYe tok nɛ mot aakwyɛl ɛdɛ mɛnyok mɛ bes, bhis nyɛ eezedɛ mɛnyok mɛ na mwa ɔ. Ye dyeebakeaa ɛ náá: “Mɛnyok mɛ na mwa nɛ nyɔ.”»BSBBSB: And no one after drinking old wine wants new, for he says, ‘The old is better.’”
