Then Jesus said to them,
“Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God arrive with power.”

After six days Jesus took with Him Peter, James, and John, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. There He was transfigured before them.

His clothes became radiantly white, brighter than any launderer on earth could bleach them.

BKW
Batsa deenek, bɛdjekel kasɛka ɛ́ Eli bɛ nɛ Moiiz moo lɛɛ elɛŋ nɛ Yezu.
BSB
BSB:
And Elijah and Moses appeared before them, talking with Jesus.

BKW
Wɔ gwaa, Pyɛɛd zɛke nɛ Yezu náá: «Lyoel, ɛnyɔ náá, mena dika wak. Djhoosumka epɛt elɛl: wat yɔ, yak yɛ Moiiz, dhiiti wat yɛ Eli.»
BSB
BSB:
Peter said to Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters—one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.”
6
BKW
Nyɛ nadi ɛ́, ààgu sa nyɛ nadi elii ɛ́, etɛɛ náá, bɛbebwol naadyeebamɛt bɛ nɛ bɔn nyɛɛg ɛlyelɛpe.

For they were all so terrified that Peter did not know what else to say.

BKW
Eguud zokazɛsul, wɔ gwaa, ye zɛkala kɔ lɔɔ, butal bɛ. Tɔ eguud binek, wɔ gwaa dhiiti gwood zɛgék, é ke náá: «Nwyak ɛ́ mɔn'am mɛ dyeebakwyɛl ɔ. Bi ɛ́ gwak nyɛ!»
BSB
BSB:
Then a cloud appeared and enveloped them, and a voice came from the cloud: “This is My beloved Son. Listen to Him!”

BKW
É di'enek wat, bɛdjekel moo tin é gwyák é mengwoob mɔɔ, bɛ kadi ɛ́, ààkabaabee mot. Ye nazokalik ɛ́ Yezu nyɛ ɛmet.

Suddenly, when they looked around, they saw no one with them except Jesus.

BSB
BSB:
As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus admonished them not to tell anyone what they had seen until the Son of Man had risen from the dead.
10
BKW
Bɛ naamɛt mɛkpa menek djas, bɛ moo tin esɔs pak'ɔɔ náá: «Nyɛ kwyɛl ɛlɛɛ yé dum nɛ “ɛgom bhis ɛsyee”?»
BSB
BSB:
So they kept this matter to themselves, discussing what it meant to rise from the dead.
11
BKW
Bhii tak, bɛ eezɛdji Yezu náá: «Étɛp yé bɛghaŋ ɛ mɛkana mɛ etsi di elɛɛ náá: ye goka ɛ́ Eli pookonyɛl ɛzyɛ ɛsok?»
BSB
BSB:
And they asked Jesus, “Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”
12
BKW
Nyɛ eezɛbɔɔza nɛ nɔɔ náá: «Tsɛɛtsɛ, ye goka ɛ́ náá, Eli pookozyɛ ɛsok étɛp nyɛ neezɛkoobal esesɛɛ djas. “Haa”, étɛp yé ekwyala ɛ Zɛɛb di baalɛɛ náá, ye goka, Sɛɛŋɛlɛ Mɔn Mot zukaa ɛlyelɛpe, náá nyɛ waabhinaa?
BSB
BSB:
He replied,
“Elijah does indeed come first, and he restores all things. Why then is it written that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected?
13
BKW
Yɛ bɛ mam ɔɔ, betka mɛ lɛɛ bin náá: Eli eezezyɛ, kabela ɛ́, bot eesa nyɛ dáa bɛ nakwos ɛ, dáa mɛkpa ɛ Zɛɛb di ekwyala, dum nɛ nɛ ɛ.»
BSB
BSB:
But I tell you that Elijah has indeed come, and they have done to him whatever they wished, just as it is written about him.”
14
BKW
Dáa bɛ nakakum é di bɛdhiiti bɛdjekel nalik ɔ bɛ kabela ɛ́, zukamwaa nɛ mot, nɛ bɛghaŋ ɛ mɛkana mɛ etsi kuku ɛbwak é suu mɛso.
BSB
BSB:
When they returned to the other disciples, they saw a large crowd around them, and scribes arguing with them.
15
BKW
Beea bot nabee Yezu ɛ, ye nabɛ ɛ́, bɛ naadyeebadjoka, bɛ eezɛsum ekaab, bɛ neekɛ swos nyɛ.
BSB
BSB:
As soon as all the people saw Jesus, they were filled with awe and ran to greet Him.
16
BKW
Yezu eezɛdji bɛdjekel bɛ náá: «Ye ɛ́ mɛso mɛ yé bi di esuu, bi nɛ bɛ nɔɔ?»
BSB
BSB:
“What are you disputing with them?”
He asked.
17
BKW
Wɔ gwaa mot ngɔt tɔ ɛdhuu ɛ bot binɔk zɛke nɛ nɛ náá: «Lyoel, mɛ eezyɛ nɛ mɔn'am etɛɛ náá, mbee sisim ɛpedhek nyɛ, nyɛ ààlii.
BSB
BSB:
Someone in the crowd replied, “Teacher, I brought You my son, who has a spirit that makes him mute.
18
BKW
Mbee sisim tak zoghɛɛ nyɛ é edi djas, ghɛɛg nyɛ é bɔs, mɛwyil é nuub, mɔn kwaal mɛtsok, mɔn nyel kaada dáa muu. Mɛ ɛ́ booke nɛ bɛdjekel bɔ náá, bɛ sɔ mbee sisim tak. Bɛ ààpakwak yɛ.»
BSB
BSB:
Whenever it seizes him, it throws him to the ground. He foams at the mouth, gnashes his teeth, and becomes rigid. I asked Your disciples to drive it out, but they were unable.”
19
BKW
Tin, wɔ gwaa Yezu zɛke nɛ nɔɔ náá: «Bi ɛ́ bot ɛ di ààdum koŋ nɛ Zɛɛb ɔ! Mena kalikeka é di wat mɛlu mɛdhen? Ye kabaalik mɛlu mɛdhen mɛ di egoka nɛ ɛmaad ɛ bin? Dhaaka mɛ nɛ mɔn'enɔk wak.»
BSB
BSB:
“O unbelieving generation!”
Jesus replied.
“How long must I remain with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy to Me.”
20
BKW
Bhii tak, bɛ eezɛzyɛ nyɛ nɛ mɔn tak. Beea mbee sisim nabee Yezu ɛ, wɔ gwaa, nyɛ zɛdheeg mɔn'enɔk ɛlyelɛpe «buku-buku». Nyɛ eezɛghaaga si, nyɛ moo boola si, mɛdheed ewyis é nuub.
BSB
BSB:
So they brought him, and seeing Jesus, the spirit immediately threw the boy into a convulsion. He fell to the ground and rolled around, foaming at the mouth.
21
BKW
Tin, Yezu eezɛdji sɛɛg mɔn'enɔk náá: «Mɔn'ak moo nɛ ɛbil ɛbɛ́ ɛlak mos mɛlu mɛdhen?» Sɛɛg mɔn nɛ nɛ náá: «Kana edhɔma bɛ, kɛyaka nɛ dwoo pan mos'ak.
BSB
BSB:
Jesus asked the boy’s father,
“How long has this been with him?”
“From childhood,” he said.
22
BKW
É dhiiti tyɛ, mbee sisim ɛpezyeegal nyɛ tɔ du, yak tyɛ tɔ dii étɛp nyɛ neegwyɛ. “Yaayee!” Geka bis ghoŋ, tsika bis, wɔ di nɛ ghwyil ɛsa ɔ!»
BSB
BSB:
“It often throws him into the fire or into the water, trying to kill him. But if You can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.”
23
BKW
Wɔ gwaa Yezu zɛbɔɔza nɛ nɛ náá: «Étɛp yé wɔ ke náá: “Wɔ di nɛ ghwyil ɛsa ɔɔ.” Ghuna ye ɛ́ náá, mot ɛ dum koŋ nɛ Zɛɛb ɔɔ, esa djas nyɛ aawaab ɛ, nyɛ waabela.»
BSB
BSB:
“If You can?”
echoed Jesus.
“All things are possible to him who believes!”
24
BKW
É di'enek wat, sɛɛg mɔn'enɔk eezɛtsim ɛlyelɛpe. Nyɛy náá: «Mɛ eedum koŋ. Kwyeea mɛ etɛɛ náá, mɛ neewa lyem tɔ ɛmyaal ɛnyɔɛpe!»
BSB
BSB:
Immediately the boy’s father cried out, “I do believe; help my unbelief!”
25
BKW
Dáa Yezu nabee ɛdhuu ɛ bot ezyɛ ekaab pɛ kyee bɛ nadi ɛ́, nyɛ eezɛbhɛm mbee sisim. Nyɛy nɛ nɛ náá: «Wɔy sisim di ediyal bot mɛlɔ nɛ enuub ɔ, ye ɛ́ mam ɛ di eke nɛ nɔ náá: Wyisa tɔ nyel mɔn'ak. Sa wɔ ààbaabula tɔ lɛ!»
BSB
BSB:
When Jesus saw that a crowd had come running, He rebuked the unclean spirit.
“You deaf and mute spirit,”
He said,
“I command you to come out and never enter him again.”
26
BKW
Wɔ gwaa, mbee sisim zɛbo boo tsim, zɛdheeg mɔn'enɔk ɛlyelɛpe. É di tak, mbee sisim tak eezɛwyis, mɔn tak moo tin dáa muu, sa náá, bot ɛ nadi tin ɔ, ke náá: «Nyɛ eegwyɛ!»
BSB
BSB:
After shrieking and convulsing him violently, the spirit came out. The boy became like a corpse, so that many said, “He is dead.”
27
BKW
Tin, Yezu eezɛmɛt nyɛ é mbɔ, zɛwyɛl nyɛ, mɔn tak eezɛtyaa tetel.
BSB
BSB:
But Jesus took him by the hand and helped him to his feet, and he stood up.
28
BKW
É sok Yezu nazɛni tɔ ndjaa bɛ nɛ bɛdjekel bɛ bɔɔ bɛ ɛmet ɛ, bɛdjekel eezɛdji nyɛ náá: «Étɛp yé bis di ààkwak ɛsɔ mbee sisim tak?»
BSB
BSB:
After Jesus had gone into the house, His disciples asked Him privately, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?”
29
BKW
Yezu eezɛbɔɔza nɛ nɔɔ náá: «Mbi esisim binek wyis ɛ́, ye ɛ́ bɛ náá, wɔ nɛ djaala Zɛɛb ɛbuɛpe ɔ.»
BSB
BSB:
Jesus answered,
“This kind cannot come out, except by prayer.”
30
BKW
Bɛ eezɛdus tin, wɔ gwaa, bɛ zɛtsaal kyee dik Ghalile djas. Yezu nabɛ ààkwyɛl náá, bot gu pɛ nyɛ nadi ɛ.
BSB
BSB:
Going on from there, they passed through Galilee. But Jesus did not want anyone to know,
31
BKW
Etɛɛ náá, nyɛ nadi elyo bɛdjekel bɛ. Nyɛy nɛ nɔɔ náá: «Sɛɛŋɛlɛ Mɔn Mot ɛ́ waakaaa é mɛmbɔ mɛ bot ɛ mesyem. Bhii tak, bɛ waagó nyɛ. Mɛlu mɛlɛl bhii tak, nyɛ waagom.»
BSB
BSB:
because He was teaching His disciples. He told them,
“The Son of Man will be delivered into the hands of men. They will kill Him, and after three days He will rise.”
32
BKW
Tin, bɛdjekel nabɛ ɛ́, ààmɛt lo etɛp ee nyɛ nadi elɛɛ bɛ ɛ. Bɛ nadi ɛ́, nɛ bwoo ɛdji nyɛ etɛp binek djas.

BSB:
But they did not understand this statement, and they were afraid to ask Him about it.
33
BKW
Bɛ eezɛkum pɛ Kapɛlnaum. Dáa bɛ nadi tɔ ndjaŋ ɛ, Yezu eezɛdji bɛdjekel bɛ náá: «Mɛso mɛ yé bi di esuu ze ɛ ze?»
BSB
BSB:
Then they came to Capernaum. While Jesus was in the house, He asked them,
“What were you discussing on the way?”
34
BKW
Bɔɔ djas «kup», ààlii, bela tin náá, ze ɛ ze bɛ nadi esuu mɛso dum nɛ etooba.
BSB
BSB:
But they were silent, for on the way they had been arguing about which of them was the greatest.
35
BKW
Tin, Yezu eezɛdisi, bhii tak, nyɛ eezɛdjóo bɛdjekel bɛ kam nɛ bɛbá. Nyɛy nɛ nɔɔ náá: «Mot ɛ kwyɛl etooba ɔɔ, ye goka ɛ́ nyɛ di mot ɛbhis tɔ bɛsɔ djas. Nyɛ di mot-mɛsa mɛ bɛsɔ djas.»
BSB
BSB:
Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said,
“If anyone wants to be first, he must be the last of all and the servant of all.”
36
BKW
Bhii tak nyɛ eezɛnɔɔ dhiiti mɔɔ dhyeeb, nɛɛg nyɛ kuku ɛbwak ɛ lɔɔ. Nyɛ eezɛbeedal nyɛ. Bhii tak, nyɛ eezɛke nɛ nɔɔ náá:
BSB
BSB:
Then He had a little child stand among them. Taking the child in His arms, He said to them,
37
BKW
«Mot aamyaal mɔɔ dhyeeb dáak kɔ ɛsu ɛ kwyɛl nyɛ di nɛ yɛ nɛ nam ɔɔ, ye ɛ́ mam mɛ ɛmet ɛ nyɛ myaal. Mot aamyaal mɛ ɔɔ, nyɛ ààpamyaal mam mɛ ɛmet. Nyɛ myaal ɛ́ dɔɔ nɛ mot nadhis mɛ ɔ.»
BSB
BSB:
“Whoever welcomes one of these little children in My name welcomes Me, and whoever welcomes Me welcomes not only Me, but the One who sent Me.”
38
BKW
Zaŋ eezɛke nɛ Yezu náá: «Lyoel, bis eebee dhiiti mot esɔ embee esisim nɛ din ɛ lɔ. Bis eekoolyak nyɛ, etɛɛ náá, nyɛ ààkɛ lɔɔg wat mena nɛ bɛ nɔɔ.»
BSB
BSB:
John said to Him, “Teacher, we saw someone else driving out demons in Your name, and we tried to stop him, because he does not accompany us.”
39
BKW
Tin, Yezu zɛbɔɔza nɛ nɔɔ náá: «Sa mot ààlyak nyɛ, etɛɛ náá, ye tok nɛ mot aasa endem e mɛbwala nɛ din ɛ lam é di'enek wat, da nyɛ ɛ́ byak mɛ.
BSB
BSB:
“Do not stop him,”
Jesus replied.
“For no one who performs a miracle in My name can turn around and speak evil of Me.
40
BKW
Etɛɛ náá, mot ɛ́ di ààbhina mena ɔɔ, nyɛ ɛ́ mot'ena.
BSB
BSB:
For whoever is not against us is for us.

BSB
BSB:
Indeed, if anyone gives you even a cup of water because you bear the name of Christ, truly I tell you, he will never lose his reward.
42
BKW
«Mot ɛ́ di tyee boo ɛbɛk étɛp ɛkɔa tɔ mesyem ngɔt tɔ bɔn di dum koŋ nɛ nam ɔ, ye goka ɛ́ náá, bɛ tsel nyɛ boo ɛkok é tsuŋ, da bɛ ɛ́ lóo nyɛ tɔ dii mɛsɔn.
BSB
BSB:
But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be thrown into the sea.
43
BKW
Yɛ bɛ náá, mbɔ'ɔ di esa náá, wɔ kwyit mɛlu djas tɔ mesyem ɔɔ, tsaala yɛ. Ɛnyɔ náá, mot ni tɔ tsik na kɔm-kɔm nɛ mbɔ tsaala. Ɛbiyo kabɛ ɛ́ náá, wɔ di nɛ mɛmbɔ mɛmbá, da wɔ ɛ́ su tsik, da wɔ ɛ́ tɔ́, kɛdyak tɔ du na kɔm-kɔm. [
BSB
BSB:
If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than to have two hands and go into hell, into the unquenchable fire.

Pɛ tɔ di di náá, “elum ààgwyɛ ɛ́, é di di náá, ngel du ààdim ɛ.”

Salt is good, but if the salt loses its saltiness, with what will you season it? Have salt among yourselves, and be at peace with one another.”
