1. 1BKWBhii tak, Yezu zɛlii nɛ nɔɔ tɔ kana náá: «Mot ngɔt naabɛ pyeeb vin. Nyɛ zokapeeb pyeeb tak, tin, wɔ gwaa nyɛ kpak tyee mɔɔ bwak tɔ ɛkok, edi bɛ aadi esesyaal mɛdii mɛ bhum vin tak ɔ.

Nyɛ eezɛnɔɔ nyel, tɔ́ mɛdjoŋ.BSBBSB: Then Jesus began to speak to them in parables: “A man planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a wine vat, and built a watchtower. Then he rented it out to some tenants and went away on a journey.
2. 2BKWMbu epyeeb e tak di ewum ɛ, yɛ eezɛdjala. Wɔ gwaa, nakuma pyeeb zokazɛlwom mot ngɔt di esa mɛsa pɛ daa lɛ ɔ, pɛ dáa bot ɛ nyɛ nalik nɛ pyeeb ɔ, étɛp bɛ needjɛ nyɛ yɛ pak bhum vin bɛ nabela ɛ.BSBBSB: At harvest time, he sent a servant to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard.
3. 3BKWWɔ gwaa, bot ɛ nalik nɛ pyeeb ɔ, zɛmɛt mot tak, duma nyɛ é nyel nɛ mɛbin. Bhii tak swaal nyɛ mɛmbɔ toto.BSBBSB: But they seized the servant, beat him, and sent him away empty-handed.
4. 4BKWBhii mot sok, nakuma pyeeb eebaazɛlwom dhiiti mot di esa mɛsa pɛ daa lɛ ɔ náá, nyɛ tɔ́ pɛ daa lɔɔ tɔ pyeeb, bɛ eezɛnyuu nyɛ é lo, nyek nyɛ ɛbuɛpe.BSBBSB: Then he sent them another servant, and they struck him over the head and treated him shamefully.
5. 5BKWYak kɔkɔ tyee esok elɛl. Nyɛ eebaazɛlwom nwyak mot, bɔɔ duma nyɛ é nyel nɛ mɛbin, gó nyɛ. Bɛ nabaazosa nɛ bot ɛ nazyɛ ɛbhis ɔ deenek, bɛdhiiti biaa, bak góaa.BSBBSB: He sent still another, and this one they killed. He sent many others; some they beat and others they killed.
6. 6BKWNyɛ nabɛ ɛ́ nɛ ɛtsak ɛ mɔn'ɛ nyɛ nadi ekwyɛl dhaa tyɛ ɔ nalik ɔ. Nyɛ eezɛlwom nyɛ pɛ daa lɔɔ nɛ egeka náá: “Bɛ waadil nyɛ, etɛɛ náá, ye ɛ́ mɔn'ɛ met.”BSBBSB: Finally, having one beloved son, he sent him to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.
7. 7BKWDáa bot ɛ́ di esa mɛsa tɔ pyeeb'ɛ nabee mɔn'enɔk ɛ, bɔɔ náá: “Yawee! Beeka mot aalik nɛ mɛvu mak djas ɔ! Djhookɛgóka nyɛ. Tin, mɛvu mak aadi ɛ́, yenabɛlka.”BSBBSB: But the tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’
8. 8BKWWɔ gwaa bɛ zɛmɛt nyɛ, gó nyɛ, mwas muu'ɛ bhii pyeeb vin.»BSBBSB: So they seized the son, killed him, and threw him out of the vineyard.
9. 9BKWYezu eezɛdji bɛ kiya náá: «É di'enek, nakuma pyeeb goka nɛ ɛsa ye? Nyɛ waazyɛ, da nyɛ ɛ́ gó bot ɛ nadi esa mɛsa tɔ pyeeb ɔ. Bhii tak, da nyɛ ɛ́ nɔɔ pyeeb, djɛ nɛ bot ɛsis.BSBBSB: What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others.
10. 10BKWBi nabɛ ààlaa mɛkpa mak tɔ ekwyala? “Ɛkok ɛ bɛsumel mwas ɛ, moo ɛ́ ɛkok di epyet ndjaŋ ɛ.BSBBSB: Have you never read this Scripture: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.
11. 11BKWYe ɛ́ nɛ ghwyil ɛ Ghɛŋ ɛ nyɛ moo deenek. Ye tok tin mbyok é mis menaka?”»BSBBSB: This is from the Lord, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?”
12. 12BKWTinaak, bɛghaŋ ɛ mɛkana mɛ etsi, nɛ bɛpaa ɛ eYuda, zɛnɔɔ eboo bɛghaa-Zɛɛb, nadi esaa mɛpek étɛp bɛ neemɛt nyɛ.

É di tak wat, bɛ eezɛbet Yezu, tɔ́ yɔbɔ.BSBBSB: At this, the leaders sought to arrest Jesus, for they knew that He had spoken this parable against them. But fearing the crowd, they left Him and went away.
13. 13BKWBɛghaa-Zɛɛb zɛkyeed bɛdhiiti eFalizyɛ nɛ bɛdhiiti bot ɛ zɛɛga mɛkoozi Elood pɛ daa Yezu tyee mɛbhowal, étɛp nyɛ neebela ndjɛ kɔ mɛkpa mɛ ɛmet.BSBBSB: Later, they sent some of the Pharisees and Herodians to catch Jesus in His words.
14. 14BKWBɛ ɛ́ boozɛke nɛ nɛ náá: «Lyoel, bis nɛ gu náá, etɛp ee wɔ di elɛɛ ɛ, ye ɛ́ tsɛɛtsɛ. Wɔ ààbem ba nɛ mot, etɛɛ náá, wɔy ààdyeebagwyák sa bot di esa ɛ.

Bis tuud “ohoo”, bis nàtuud?»BSBBSB: “Teacher,” they said, “we know that You are honest and seek favor from no one. Indeed, You are impartial and teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not? Should we pay them or not?”
15. 15BKWDáa Yezu nadi egu mbee mɛfulu mɛ mɛdjhaaz pɛ ɛko, bhimis pɛ si ɛ, nyɛ ɛ́ boozɛbɔɔza nɛ nɔɔ náá: «Étɛp yé bi di ekwyɛl ɛwa mɛ tɔ mɛbhowal? Dhaka mɛ nɛ pata wat, étɛp mɛ neebee.»BSBBSB: But Jesus saw through their hypocrisy and said, “Why are you testing Me? Bring Me a denarius to inspect.”
16. 16BKWBɛ eezɛzyɛ nyɛ nɛ pata wat. Yezu eezɛdji bɛ náá: «Kɔ syaa yak, ye ɛ́ wak ɛbhwoob ɛ zɛ? Ye ɛ́ ekwyala e din ɛ zɛ ɛ di kɔ tak?» Bot binɔk eezɛbɔɔza nɛ nɛ náá: «Ye ɛ́ yɛ mɛkoozi Sezaad.»BSBBSB: So they brought it, and He asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?” “Caesar’s,” they answered.
17. 17BKWBhii tak, nyɛ eebaazɛbɔɔza nɛ nɔɔ náá: «Djɛka Sezaad sa di yɛ Sezaad ɛ, da bi ɛ́ djɛ Zɛɛb sa di yɛ Zɛɛb ɛ.» Gwaka bɛ nagwak deenek ɛ, bɛ eezɛdjoka nyɛ ɛlyelɛpe.BSBBSB: Then Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.” And they marveled at Him.
18. 18BKWESaduseɛ, bot ɛ nadi eke náá, bhis ɛsyee, bot aanàkwaabaagom ɔ, bɛ eezɛzyɛ yɔbɔ pe, pɛ daa Yezu, zɛdji nyɛ náá:BSBBSB: Then the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Jesus and questioned Him:
19. 19BKW«Lyoel, mɛkana mɛ Moiiz lɛɛ ɛ́ náá: “Yɛ bɛ náá, mɔn nyɛɛg dhiiti mot eegwyɛ, ààlik mɔn ɔɔ, ye goka ɛ́ náá, mɔn nyɛɛg lik ɔ, ba kus myɛl, étɛp nyɛ neekwyiida mɔn nyɛɛg gwyɛ ààlik bɔn ɔ”.BSBBSB: “Teacher, 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.
20. 20BKWBeea: Tin, yɛ bɛ náá, bɛ nadi ɛ́ bɔn mɔ ngɔt bɛtɛn nɛ bɛbá ɔɔ. Mɔn mɛgwyak eezɛba, da gwyɛ, ààlik mɔn.BSBBSB: Now there were seven brothers. The first one married and died, leaving no children.
21. 21BKWMot nabɔɔba mɔn mɛgwyak ɔ, kanɔɔ moma bhii koŋ'ɛ. Tin, nyɛ eebaakpaa nɛ mɛsyee, gwyɛ, ààlik bɔn. Ye zokabaasael ɛ́ tyɛ wat nɛ mot nabaazyɛ bhis yenɔk ɔ.BSBBSB: Then the second one married the widow, but he also died and left no children. And the third did likewise.
22. 22BKWTin, bɔɔ djas bɛtɛn nɛ bɛbá kadi ɛ́ ààbya nɛ moma yenɔk. Bhii bɔɔ djas, moma eebaazɛgwyɛ yɛ pe.BSBBSB: In this way, none of the seven left any children. And last of all, the woman died.
23. 23BKWÉ sok bot aagom bhis ɛsyee ɛ, moma yenɔk aakadi mwaa zɛ, tɔ bɔɔ bɛtɛn nɛ bɛbá? Etɛɛ náá, bɔɔ djas nabɛ ɛ́ botom bɛ.»BSBBSB: In the resurrection, then, whose wife will she be? For all seven were married to her.”
24. 24BKWYezu eezɛbɔɔza nɛ nɔɔ náá: «Bi ààbee tin náá, bi eewo? Etɛɛ náá, bi ààsiiza ɛnyɔɛpe sa di kwyala ɛ, baanɔɔ náá, bi ààgu ghwyil ɛ Zɛɛb.BSBBSB: Jesus said to them, “Aren’t you mistaken, because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God?
25. 25BKWEtɛɛ náá, é ghɛŋ bot aagom bhis ɛsyee ɛ, botom aanàkwaakabaaba boa, boa pe ààkwaani mɛba, etɛɛ náá, bot djas aadi ɛ́, dáa efofop tɔ gwoo.BSBBSB: When the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage. Instead, they will be like the angels in heaven.

27. 27BKWZɛɛb tok Zɛɛb bɛmyoŋ. Nyɛ ɛ́ Zɛɛb bot ɛ di nɛ tsik ɔ. Bi ɛpedjak ɛbuɛpe.»BSBBSB: He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are badly mistaken!”

Nyɛ ɛ́ boozɛdji Yezu náá: «Tɔ etsi e Zɛɛb djas, yaa di dil dhaa bɛsɔ?»BSBBSB: Now one of the scribes had come up and heard their debate. Noticing how well Jesus had answered them, he asked Him, “Which commandment is the most important of all?”
29. 29BKWYezu ɛ́ boozɛbɔɔza nɛ nɛ náá: «Yii di dil tɔ bɛsɔ ɛ́: “Gwaka, Yisalaɛl, Ghɛŋ Zɛɛb'enaka, ye tok nɛ dhiiti Zɛɛb bhis Ghɛŋ.BSBBSB: Jesus replied, “This is the most important: ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One.
30. 30BKWDa wɔ ɛ́ kwyɛl Ghɛŋ Zɛɛb'ɔ, nɛ lyem'ɔ djas, nɛ sisim'ɔ djas, nɛ esiiza bɔ djas, nɛ ghwyil'ɔ djas.”BSBBSB: Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’

32. 32BKWGhaa-mɛkana mɛ etsi ɛ Zɛɛb'enɔk eezɛke nɛ nɛ náá: «Tsɛɛtsɛ, lyoel! Wɔ ɛ́ lɛɛ tsɛɛtsɛ náá, Zɛɛb ɛ́ ngɔt. Dhiiti Zɛɛb tok bhii koŋ'ɛ.BSBBSB: “Right, Teacher,” the scribe replied. “You have stated correctly that God is One and there is no other but Him,

This is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
34. 34BKWDáa Yezu nabee dáa mot'enɔk nabɔɔza nɛ etsoŋ djas ɛ, nyɛ ɛ́ boozɛlɛɛ nɛ nɛ náá: «Ɛyoŋ ɛ Zɛɛb ààtseta nɛ nɔ.» Bhii tak bot nadi ɛ́, bɛ moo kyee ɛdji ɛ nyɛ ekiya.BSBBSB: When Jesus saw that the man had answered wisely, He said, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” And no one dared to question Him any further.
35. 35BKWTin, Yezu ɛpelyo bot tɔ kok Ndjaa-ebuwa, nyɛ eezɛdji bot náá: «É tɛp yé bɛghaŋ ɛ mɛkana mɛ etsi di eke náá, Mɛsia ɛ́ dha ɛ Dhavid?BSBBSB: While Jesus was teaching in the temple courts, He asked, “How can the scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David?

37. 37BKWDhavid nyɛ ɛmet naadjóo nyɛ “Ghɛŋ”. É yaa tyɛ nyɛ aakabaadi dha'ɛ?» Zukamwaa nɛ mot nadi tin ɔ, nadi egwak Yezu nɛ mɛmyaala tɔ elyem.BSBBSB: David himself calls Him ‘Lord.’ So how can He be David’s son?” And the large crowd listened to Him with delight.
