BSB:
they gathered in such large numbers that there was no more room, not even outside the door, as Jesus spoke the word to them.

BKW
Bɛdhiiti bot zokazyɛ nɛ mot ngɔt, nyɛ nabɛ ɛ́, nyɛ eezesɔɔb nɛ ɛbɛ́. Bot ɛná ɛ́ nabyaal nyɛ kɔ mwaala.

BSB:
Then a paralytic was brought to Him, carried by four men.
4
BKW
Dáa ɛdhuu ɛ bot nadi ɛbuɛpe, ààbɛ nɛ ze ɛkpaa étɛp bɛ neekɛnɛɛg nyɛ si mɛko ɛ Yezu ɛ. Wɔ gwaa, bot binɔk zokazɛtuu ɛlen kɔ mii ndjaa, bɛ eezɛsil mwaala mot ɛbɛ́ ɛ tak.
BSB
BSB:
Since they were unable to get to Jesus through the crowd, they uncovered the roof above Him, made an opening, and lowered the paralytic on his mat.
5
BKW
Dáa Yezu nabee ɛdum ɛ koŋ ɛ bot ɛ nazyɛ nɛ mbel tak ɔ, nyɛ ɛ́ boozɛke nɛ mot nazesɔɔb ɔ náá: «Mɔn'am, mesyem mɔ eepelel.»
BSB
BSB:
When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic,
“Son, your sins are forgiven.”
6

Bɛdhiiti bɛghaŋ ɛ mɛkana mɛ etsi ɛ Moiiz nadi mendiindil tin ɔ, nabɛ ɛ́, bɛ moo nɛ bɛtɛ nɛ esiiza tɔ elyem bɔɔ. Bɔɔ náá:

But some of the scribes were sitting there and thinking in their hearts,

BKW
«Mot'ak lii deenek étɛp yé? Nyɛ ɛpebyasal Zɛɛb, etɛɛ náá, mot tok nɛ ghwyil ɛpel mesyem mɛ sɔ mot, bhii Zɛɛb nyɛ ɛmet.»
BSB
BSB:
“Why does this man speak like this? He is blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone?”
8
BKW
É di tak wat, Yezu naagu esiiza bɔɔ. Nyɛ ɛ́ booke náá: «Étɛp yé bi di nɛ mbi yenek egeka?
BSB
BSB:
At once Jesus knew in His spirit that they were thinking this way within themselves.
“Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?”
He asked.
9
BKW
Ɛye di elyel nɛ nen, ɛke ɛ́ nɛ mbel náá: “Mesyem mɔ eepelel”, “ooho” nɛghu ɛke ɛ́ náá: “Wyɛla, ghɛɛa mwaala yɔ, da wɔ ɛ́ kɛ”?
BSB
BSB:
“Which is easier: to say to a paralytic, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up, pick up your mat, and walk’?
10
BKW
Ye goka ɛ́ bi gu náá, Sɛɛŋɛlɛ Mɔn Mot ɛ́ nɛ ghwyil ɛpel mesyem mɛ bot ɛ bɔs.» Bhii tak, nyɛ eezɛke nɛ mot nadi sɔɔba ɔ náá:
BSB
BSB:
But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins...”
He said to the paralytic,
11
BKW
«Mɛ ke ɛ́ náá: Wyɛla, nɔŋa mwaala yɔ, da wɔ ɛ́ sik pɛ ndjaŋ'ɔ!»
BSB
BSB:
“I tell you, get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”

BSB
BSB:
And immediately the man got up, picked up his mat, and walked out in front of them all. As a result, they were all astounded and glorified God, saying, “We have never seen anything like this!”
13
BKW
Yezu eebaazɛsik mbaka-mbaka nɛ boo soob na djato-djato Ghalile. Bot mɛdhuu-mɛdhuu nadi ezyɛ pɛ daa lɛ. Tin, nyɛy elelyo bɛ mɛkpa ɛ Zɛɛb.
BSB
BSB:
Once again Jesus went out beside the sea. All the people came to Him, and He taught them there.
14
BKW

BSB
BSB:
As He was walking along, He saw Levi son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax booth.
“Follow Me,”
He told him, and Levi got up and followed Him.
15
BKW
Bhii tak, Yezu eezɛtɔ́, kɛdɛ edee pɛ ndjaŋ ɛ Levi. É di tak, ye nabɛ ɛ́ nɛ bɛtɛ nɛ bɛnɔŋel ɛ epata e lapo, nɛ bot ɛ mesyem, etɛɛ náá, kwaambi bot binɔk nadi edudu nyɛ ɛbuɛpe. Dɔɔ nɛ bɛdjekel ɛ Yezu pe nadi ɛ́ tin.
BSB
BSB:
While Jesus was dining at Levi’s house, many tax collectors and sinners were eating with Him and His disciples—for there were many who followed Him.
16
BKW
Bɛghaŋ ɛ mɛkana mɛ etsi yii eFalizyɛ, nadi ebee dáa nyɛ nadi dɛ edee é di wat, bɛ nɛ bot ɛ mesyem nɛ bɛnɔŋel ɛ epata e lapo ɛ. Bɛ ɛ́ boozɛdji bɛdjekel bɛ náá: «É tɛp yé nyɛ di dɛ edee é di wat bɛ nɛ bɛnɔŋel ɛ epata e lapo nɛ bot ɛ di nɛ mbee mɛfulu ɔ?»
BSB
BSB:
When the scribes who were Pharisees saw Jesus eating with these people, they asked His disciples, “Why does He eat with tax collectors and sinners?”
17
BKW
Yezu naagwak dáa bɛ nadi elii ɛ, nyɛ ɛ́ boozɛke nɛ nɔɔ náá: «Bot ɛ di mɛnyel ɛnyɔɛpe ɔ, tok nɛ gwyes ngwomel bot étɛp nyɛ neegwom bɛ. Ye ɛ́ membel ɛ di nɛ gwyes mɛ gwoma mɛ. Mɛ nabɛ ɛ́ ààzyɛ zɛsaa bot ɛ epiki. Mɛ nazyɛ ɛ́ zɛsaa bot ɛ di egu náá, bɛ ɛ́ bot ɛ mesyem ɔ.»
BSB
BSB:
On hearing this, Jesus told them,
“It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”
18
BKW
Dhiiti dwoo, bɛdjekel ɛ Zaŋ, bɛ nɛ eFalizyɛ nadi etsi edee étɛp mendjaala. Tin, bot naazɛdji Yezu náá: «Étɛp yé bɛdjekel ɛ Zaŋ nɛ yii eFalizyɛ di etsi edee, bɔ kadi ɛ́, ààtsi?»
BSB
BSB:
Now John’s disciples and the Pharisees were often fasting. So people came to Jesus and asked, “Why don’t Your disciples fast like John’s disciples and those of the Pharisees?”
19
BKW
Wɔ gwaa, Yezu zokabɔɔza nɛ nɔɔ náá: «Bi nakobee sok paa náá, bɛsɔ ɛ mwaaz tsi edee é dwoo ɛbá, dhi bɛ di lɔɔg wat nɛ mwaaz, mot paazyɛ, zɛba moma ɔ? Mam ààbee.
BSB
BSB:
Jesus replied,
“How can the guests of the bridegroom fast while He is with them? As long as He is with them, they cannot fast.
20
BKW
Ɛwala ɛ tak ɛ́ waakum, é sok yɛ aadi náá, mwaaz mot zyɛ zɛsa ɛbá ɔ aadisaa tɔ lɔɔ ɔ. É di tak ɛ́ bɛ aatsi edee.
BSB
BSB:
But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.
21
BKW
«Ye tok nɛ mot aanyaa pes bes kaad étɛp ɛkoobal bet kaad nɛ yɛ. Wɔ sa deenek ɔɔ, é sok wɔ aagwyii kaad tak ɛ, bes kaad ɛ waanyaa bet kaad, da ɛ́ bek ɛlen ɛ tak.
BSB
BSB:
No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment. If he does, the new piece will pull away from the old, and a worse tear will result.
22
BKW
Ye tok nɛ mot aawa bes mɛnyok tɔ bhɛɛb na mwa, etɛɛ náá, yɛ wyil ɔɔ, mɛnyok ɛ́ nɛ ghwyil ɛ́ ɛbo bhɛɛb, da mot ɛ́ su mɛnyok, su dɔɔ nɛ bhɛɛb. Ààbɛ! Yɛ ààgoka deenek etɛɛ náá, mɛnyok mɛ na bes goka ɛ́ tɔ ebes e bhɛɛb.»
BSB
BSB:
And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. Instead, new wine is poured into new wineskins.”
23
BKW
Dhiiti dwoo saba, Yezu bɛ nɛ bɛdjekel bɛ nadi edhaa tɔ pyeeb kɔkɔ mbi bhek bhusa di edjóoaa ble ɛ. Bɔɔ kuku kyeed, bɛdjekel bɛ nadi ebɔ́k mɛzɛm mɛ tak enyuŋal.

One Sabbath Jesus was passing through the grainfields, and His disciples began to pick the heads of grain as they walked along.
24
BKW
EFalizyɛ zɛke nɛ nɛ náá: «Beea etɛp ee bɛ di esa dwoo saba ɛ, yɛ ààpadjɛaa bɛ ze náá, bɛ sa deenek.»
BSB
BSB:
So the Pharisees said to Him, “Look, why are they doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?”
25
BKW
Yezu eezɛbɔɔza nɛ nɔɔ náá: «Bi dinaa ààpaalaa dáa Dhavid nasa é sok bɛ nɛ bot bɛ nadi tɔ mezuk, ààbɛ nɛ sa dek ɛ?
BSB
BSB:
Jesus replied,
“Have you never read what David did when he and his companions were hungry and in need?
26
BKW
Bɛ naani tɔ ndjaa Zɛɛb, tɔ́, kɛdɛ emapa ee nakaŋaa Zɛɛb yɛ ɛ. É ghɛŋ tak, ye ɛ́ Abiyataad ɛ́ nadi boo ghaa-Zɛɛb. Ye nakoozodi náá, etsi lɛɛ ɛ́ náá, mot di egoka nɛ ɛdɛ emapa binek ɔ, ye ɛ́ ghaa-Zɛɛb. Tin, mɛkoozi Dhavid naadɛ yɛ, bhii tak, nyɛ naanɔɔ yak kyee, djɛ bot ɛ nadi egyee nɛ nɛ ɔ.»
BSB
BSB:
During the high priesthood of Abiathar, he entered the house of God and ate the consecrated bread, which was lawful only for the priests. And he gave some to his companions as well.”
27
BKW
Yezu zokabaazɛke nɛ nɔɔ náá: «Zɛɛb nasa dwoo saba ɛ́, étɛp bot, ààkabɛ náá, nyɛ nasa mot ɛ́ étɛp saba.
BSB
BSB:
Then Jesus declared,
“The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath.
28
BKW
Étɛp tak ɛ́ Sɛɛŋɛlɛ Mɔn Mot ɛ́ di kukuma dwoo saba.»
BSB
BSB:
Therefore, the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”
