Luke 6 (BSJ) · Opened

1la ma nyo kakuk fobka ko kange, Yeecu yakenti mor to cang ko kange, kange bibei tomange ceu, ci kyang dor canger ti citi kuiOne Sabbath Jesus was passing through the grainfields, and His disciples began to pick the heads of grain, rub them in their hands, and eat them.

2la kangem mor faricawa tokiki, ye bwi ka ma dike yorbo ti a mani bi diye kukuk, ka kiye for ka?But some of the Pharisees asked, “Why are you doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?”

3Yeecu kar cinen, toti, ka kiye ba dike Dauda mani kwama co co nuwa wuri ti co kange nubo wari kange ceu?Jesus replied, “Have you not read what David did when he and his companions were hungry?

4ya mor luwe kwama, con tu cari to tanji laneu ca morece, con nabarubo wari kange ceu ciu cam, bwen no na mam kin nob wabereu ki kwaci cia caHe entered the house of God, took the consecrated bread and gave it to his companions, and ate what is lawful only for the priests to eat.”

5la con yii ci, bibwe nifire co teluwe kankuk fobka koThen Jesus declared, “The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.”

6kange bi diye kakuk fobka con doken mor bi kur waber la co meranmbo minti wi, nii kange wi wi wuro kance ko catiyero bwiyam-bwiyaOn another Sabbath Jesus entered the synagogue and was teaching, and a man was there whose right hand was withered.

7nob mulangkabo kange faricawa to co tibi dor kero can twa nii ni kakuk fobkari na cin fiyan mure wo ci a tamco tiyeu,Looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, the scribes and Pharisees were watching Him closely to see if He would heal on the Sabbath.

8la con nyumom dike ci kwa tiyeu la con yii nii wo kangko bwiyame kwen ti fo tiber nubero gwam la nii wo kweni titi wi.But Jesus knew their thoughts and said to the man with the withered hand, “Get up and stand among us.” So he got up and stood there.

9Yeecu me ci yori kebo bi diye kakuk fobka a dike yor yoreu, kaka a ma dike wo yorbeu a cok dume kaka a tual dume?Then Jesus said to them, “I ask you, which is lawful on the Sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life or to destroy it?”

10la con cto ci gwam la co yii nii wo yarken kangmweko, la con manyo, la kang cebo twamAnd after looking around at all of them, He said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He did so, and it was restored.

11la neer ciyero kayaragum, lacin tok kanti bwiti ciye dike ca ma Yeecu nin tiyeuBut the scribes and Pharisees were filled with rage and began to discuss with one another what they might do to Jesus.

12lan yilam mor kumeni wo con ceri con yaken bang ca kob dilo con ta kobka dilo kume del co ken kwama tiIn those days Jesus went out to the mountain to pray, and He spent the night in prayer to God.

13ki kakuk la con co bibei tomange ceu cinen la con cokum kwob cilom bo yobeu, wo co co cibitikali,When daylight came, He called His disciples to Him and chose twelve of them, whom He also designated as apostles:

14denti bi beitomange ceu co buro cimon wo co caten tak, Bitru kange yii Andrawu, Yakubu, Yuwawana, Filibu, Bartalomi,Simon, whom He named Peter, and his brother Andrew; James and John; Philip and Bartholomew;

15Matta, Toma, Yakubu bibwe Afa, cimon wo ca co JalotiMatthew and Thomas; James son of Alphaeus and Simon called the Zealot;

16Yafuja, bi bwe Yakubu, kange Yafuja ckaryoti wo miye co tiyeu,Judas son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.

17la Yeecu yirau dor banged kange ci laci tim fiye tuared deu, kange bi bwi tomange ce wila kange nubo kila wo borongu Yafudiya kange wurcalima kange nubo kong caji tayaThen Jesus came down with them and stood on a level place. A large crowd of His disciples was there, along with a great number of people from all over Judea, Jerusalem, and the seacoast of Tyre and Sidon.

18ci bou na ci buro wo nuwa co na co twam twirani ciyeu, nubo buro nuwa dotange ti ki yuwa kelkelikeu con twam ci ken.They had come to hear Him and to be healed of their diseases, and those troubled by unclean spirits were healed.

19nubo mwerkangum we gwameu dotina ci kem co wori bikwan twa ka ro ceru ti cinen, la con twan ci gwam.The entire crowd was trying to touch Him, because power was coming from Him and healing them all.

20la con to bi bei tomangeceu. con yii ci bibuyer kume kom wo nob bune beu la na kume liyar kwamaroLooking up at His disciples, Jesus said: “Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.

21bi buyero an kume, kom wo konuwa wurati naweu, la ci an bwa kumen fuer bibuyer na kume, kom wo ko ci wiye tina weu, la kan nung nungiBlessed are you who hunger now, for you will be filled. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.

22bibuyero na kume to kom la ci ko denkumero na dikero bwir, ki ker bi bwe nirBlessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude you and insult you and reject your name as evil because of the Son of Man.

23ko bilangi diye co ko yilam ki for neerer, wori kan fiya cuner dikwama nubo carem cim ma nob du kumebo nin nawoRejoice in that day and leap for joy, because great is your reward in heaven. For their fathers treated the prophets in the same way.

24la kwan nen mo nii mwa cuwe-cuweu, la mom yom mwe dangne mweuBut woe to you who are rich, for you have already received your comfort.

25kwan kom nubo wo fuero bwam bwabeu, kan ci wura for kob kwan kom wo ko nung nungi ti na weu, yii kan buwa kan ci wiye ki bui.Woe to you who are well fed now, for you will hunger. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will mourn and weep.

26kwan kom na nubo tok ti ki wo dong dong di, nubo carem cimbo tok nyo nob dukumeb cwerkeboWoe to you when all men speak well of you, for their fathers treated the false prophets in the same way.

27la ma yii komti nubo ko nuwa ye tiyeu, cui nii bi dom kange mweu, na ma nubo konene nin dike ro kenBut to those of you who will listen, I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,

28yo nubo cilnen tiye nin bibuyer, na kob nubo buro culong nen ti dor bilenkereubless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.

29wo na kwanen ki kang tangal do wineri, neco wineu na kange tum belle mweri tamde mweIf someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. And if someone takes your cloak, do not withhold your tunic as well.

30ne nuwa wuro meneneu gwam na kange tum dike kangen na mweri me core moki a bou mwen cikoGive to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what is yours, do not demand it back.

31kambo mo cuilti nubo a ma mweneri, mo keneu ma ci nen nyoDo to others as you would have them do to you.

32na moki cuim ka co ka co nubo cuinen tiyeri, in jye yokka fiye mo wiye? bwen na nob bwirang kerer di cui nubo cui ci tiyeu.If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them.

33na moki mam dikero ken kan co nubo ma mwen dikero ken tiyeri ye yokka fiye weye? bwen no nob bwirang keri ki mam nyo kenIf you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do the same.

34na wo ki ne cen kan nubo mo totiri an yam neneri, ye yokka munen? bwen no nob buiran kerer di ki nem nob bwiram kerero nyou na ci fiya dike ci ne dng-dongAnd if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full.

35la cui koneneu, na ma cinen dike dong-dong ngeu. ne ken kware kange diker yilau ti, la cuner, kumero na dur, kan yilam bi beyo lo nii dii ko na co con ni lomjome fiye nubo man ki buka kangek kange nubo bwirkoBut love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them, expecting nothing in return. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High; for He is kind to the ungrateful and wicked.

36yilam ki cini na wo tee kume nii ciniuBe merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

37kom mare buolang la mani a ma kumen buolang ti kom kuwa re mani a kuwa komti, tab kangem bo la mweu an tab mwenDo not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.

38kom ne la an ne kom kwele dimdiye, cuwam cuwa, ki bi funger ti con ci an cor kumer ti kan bellik ki kwele ka cuwameu a cuwa kumen cikoGive, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.”

39la yila con yii ten ci dangke kange, con toki, fukma an ta fukma nin kangka? na co ma nyon, yaramken buwar gwam citi cimanin nyoka?Jesus also told them a parable: “Can a blind man lead a blind man? Will they not both fall into a pit?

40bwe tomange labo nii merang ka ceu dur la nubo gwam an yilam na nii merang kako na merang cinendiA disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone who is fully trained will be like his teacher.

41ye bwi mo toti ka be yere nuwa kemwe, lamwa tobo cuwemero wo nuwe mweuWhy do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye but fail to notice the beam in your own eye?

42mwa yii yimwe myi, moki yii mi tumwen be yere dam mor nuweu, lamoki bwi mwa tobo kukko cuwe mero dam mor nuwe mweu? kom nubo bwir, teri cokum batiye durko nuwe mweu na mo tom yora na mo cokum be yere nuwe yiim weuHow can you say, ‘Brother, let me take the speck out of your eye,’ while you yourself fail to see the beam in your own eye? You hypocrite! First take the beam out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

43la tiyo kendo kange mani wo tu bi tutiyo fuyem fuye tiye, kaka tiyo wo fuyemeu na ne betuti kenNo good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit.

44wori tiyo moki nyomco kin bitutico tutiyeu la nubo mani we bituti nying cire ti cuiya ke kaka nubo inabi fiye cilangeFor each tree is known by its own fruit. Indeed, figs are not gathered from thornbushes, nor grapes from brambles.

45nii ken mor dikero kendo dume ceu a bou dikero yor yoreu, nyou nii bwirko mor dikero bwirko mor neere ceu, a bou dikero bwir wori dikero bwirko ducce mor neere ceu co ci ceu toktiyeThe good man brings good things out of the good treasure of his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil treasure of his heart. For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks.

46ye bwikaco yeti kom ki, teluwe laka bwantenbo dike ma tok tiyeu?Why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ but do not do what I say?

47nii wo na bou minen la nuwa ker mereu laco bwang tenen, man yii dii ke co cerkangeI will show you what he is like who comes to Me and hears My words and acts on them:

48co ki no nan nii luwe tiye, woru wobken cuwa mor bitinen la co mu kwar loro ki terenti kwamer lana mwembo dur bouri la came mwegweu kwanan kwar kumeroti laluwe cuwo mani a muka ti wori mum co yoraHe is like a man building a house, who dug down deep and laid his foundation on the rock. When the flood came, the torrent crashed against that house but could not shake it, because it was well built.

49la nii nuwa ker miro bwang ten beu no nan co nii wo mu luwe dor bitinereu man ki kwar ca na came mwem bo kwanan kwar kuro di la can can duwo an yarum, yarke luwe kowoBut the one who hears My words and does not act on them is like a man who built his house on ground without a foundation. The torrent crashed against that house, and immediately it fell—and great was its destruction!”
