1. 1EKAJisos kehm tubu bo elgan, eji á lꞌtib bo ana bo bahke jo kak ero ngare anyehng anyehng, kꞌjo yini ekpu.BSBBSB: Then Jesus told them a parable about their need to pray at all times and not lose heart:
2. 2EKAÁ bungu re, “Nlamalam awohng jolo go ejahbe ajehng, no ki jo fahl Esowo. Ane we joom lub.BSBBSB: “In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected men.
3. 3EKA“Nkalebun awohng tob jolo ejahbe jio, no gbake jo je go ege, jo song tong-e re, ‘Lam elam ejame nob nob, ji n kpi a nnekv ewame.’BSBBSB: And there was a widow in that town who kept appealing to him, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’
4. 4EKA“Á kehm tene. Kpe kang kan a, á kehm fere bung go ege eltim re, ‘Jol eji n kil jo fꞌfahl Esowo, ane kil jo lub-m,BSBBSB: For a while he refused, but later he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect men,
5. 5EKAtib eji nkalebun noa kp-m gbiingi sꞌsehng, m bahke lame elam eje nob nob, tohko jol ano á bahk-m gboro tib go elbake ni á kpo ba ngare anyehng anyehng.’ ”BSBBSB: yet because this widow keeps pestering me, I will give her justice. Otherwise, she will wear me out with her perpetual requests.’”
6. 6EKANtul a Jisos kehm bungu re, “Wuken ana ebi nlamalam noo bungu no.BSBBSB: And the Lord said, “Listen to the words of the unjust judge.
7. 7EKAAnv, Esowo nehm tob lam elam ji nno ka ane ba á yehke no, ba kpo gboong-e atv a njula? Anv, á bahke tohko laange, kehm kake bo eboa?BSBBSB: Will not God bring about justice for His elect who cry out to Him day and night? Will He delay in helping them?
8. 8EKAN kp-n tongo re, á bahke lame elam ji nno elwaare ka bo. Anv, Mmon no nne lꞌba, á bahke nyehne ane ba kpꞌtaame go njini nyiaa?”BSBBSB: I tell you, He will promptly carry out justice on their behalf. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on earth?”
9. 9EKAJisos tob tubu elgan nia, tong ane ba jo bum elbo re, bo ba li go etingitingi, fere jo daange ane bako.BSBBSB: To some who trusted in their own righteousness and viewed others with contempt, He also told this parable:
10. 10EKAÁ bungu re, “Ane abal je go etahk Esowo re bo song kak ero. Noko jolo nne a Farisi, noko jol nkokatak.BSBBSB: “Two men went up to the temple to pray. One was a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.
11. 11EKA“Nne a Farisi kehm yiimi eje eje, jo kak ero re, ‘O Esowo, m ma-a kak saam, tibre n limm ana ane ba kpo v ejv, ba kil jo lim nsol go etingitingi. N limm ana ane ba kpo lim erehbe. M ma-a kak saam, tibre n limm ana nkokatak noo ona.BSBBSB: The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed, ‘God, I thank You that I am not like other men—swindlers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector.
12. 12EKAN kpo bade elname njal nkpel ebal go erahde. N kpo ka eltahme go ejum ajehng ajehng ji n lꞌbel.’BSBBSB: I fast twice a week and pay tithes of all that I acquire.’
13. 13EKA“Nkokatak yiimi eje go fee. Jol á tabem esamahr ebe, seenge go elbung. Á kohko na esi eje go ndi, kehm bungu re, ‘Esowo, nong, me n fil-a ndon, me nne abiafem wo.’BSBBSB: But the tax collector stood at a distance, unwilling even to lift up his eyes to heaven. Instead, he beat his breast and said, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner!’
14. 14EKA“N kp-n tongo re, Nkokatak noa wo li eno go esamahr Esowo, kehm kehnge go etahk, nne a Farisi sang. Tibre nne awohng awohng no lꞌmehl elne wahre, bo bahk-e rede na. Nne no lꞌrede elne, bo bahk-e mehle na wahre.”BSBBSB: I tell you, this man, rather than the Pharisee, went home justified. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”
15. 15EKAAne bandiki kehm koko abon ba nse, ba goji Jisos re á kooro bo abo. Eji abatꞌtoono Jisos nyehne ano, bo kehm nyame bo.BSBBSB: Now people were even bringing their babies to Jesus for Him to place His hands on them. And when the disciples saw this, they rebuked those who brought them.
16. 16EKAOwo Jisos kehm lungu bo tv elne, kehm bungu re, “Nongen, abon ba nse jo ba ga egame. Kana jo sahde bo! Tibre etul bi Esowo li ka nkohn nyia.BSBBSB: But Jesus called the children to Him and said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them! For the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
17. 17EKA“Etingitingi, n kp-n tongo re, nne awohng awohng no tohko ko etul bi Esowo ana mmon no nse, á nehm tiki li.”BSBBSB: Truly I tell you, anyone who does not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”
18. 18EKANtubesi awohng kehm bahbe Jisos re, “Nnooba ntꞌtibi, m bahke limi renan, kehm bele elkpin ni li go njinanjini?”BSBBSB: Then a certain ruler asked Him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”
19. 19EKAJisos kehm-e faange re, “Jen ji wahnge a kehm-m lꞌlung re nnooba nne fono? Nnene limm, no li nnooba nne, sehngem Esowo ntahngtahng bi li nnooba nne.BSBBSB: “Why do you call Me good?” Jesus replied. “No one is good except God alone.
20. 20EKAA kpꞌkahne atahm nya bungu re, ‘Ka jo lim erehbe! Ka jo wul nne! Ka jo v ejv! Ka jo yiimi ntianse efahnge! Jo kak nso, a nne!’ ”BSBBSB: You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not bear false witness, honor your father and mother.’”
21. 21EKAOwo nne noo kehm faange re, “Atahm nyaa kpee m bomo elbumu ngare nyi n kpeke li ntiil.”BSBBSB: “All these I have kept from my youth,” he said.
22. 22EKAEji Jisos wuku ano, á kehm bungu re, “Ebsa ejum ajehng ji a bahke gohro lim. Song gungu nsol kpee nyi a kpi no, wo ko akpohko nyao song ka akpak, owo a bahke bele afang go ejahbetul Esowo, wo fere tahm toon-m.”BSBBSB: On hearing this, Jesus told him, “You still lack one thing: Sell everything you own and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me.”
23. 23EKAEji á wuku ano, á kehm kehme elguunu, tibre á fange sehng.BSBBSB: But when the ruler heard this, he became very sad, because he was extremely wealthy.
24. 24EKAJisos nyehne kan re á kpꞌguunu, á kehm bungu re, “Bahke riidi sehng re afang ane kehm lehke etul bi Esowo.BSBBSB: Seeing the man’s sadness, Jesus said, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!
25. 25EKARe efange nne kehm yele ejahbetul Esowo, ekamel bahke sehnge go mbang a nga.”BSBBSB: Indeed, it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”
26. 26EKAAne ba wuku no kehm bahbe re, “Anv, nne awo me, no bahke kehm bele eltahre?”BSBBSB: Those who heard this asked, “Who then can be saved?”
27. 27EKAOwo Jisos kehm faange re, “Ji nne kil ma lim, goji Esowo riidem.”BSBBSB: But Jesus said, “What is impossible with man is possible with God.”
28. 28EKAPita kehm bungu re, “Nyehn, ana e ma tahm ntahk enyahre sa, kp-a toono.”BSBBSB: “Look,” said Peter, “we have left all we had to follow You.”
29. 29EKAOwo Jisos kehm tongo bo re, “Etingitingi, n kp-n tongo re, Nnene limm, no ma tahm etahk eje sa, jol nkal ewe, jol abonanyehn, jol babnde, a abon ebe tib go esi ji etul bi Esowo,BSBBSB: “Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or wife or brothers or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God
30. 30EKAno lꞌkꞌbel na gbalee budu eying jia ji anv, fere bel elkpin ni li go njinanjini eying ji kpꞌbake.”BSBBSB: will fail to receive many times more in this age—and in the age to come, eternal life.”
31. 31EKAOwo Jisos kehm rodo abatꞌtoono ebe, ewubu ane abal, tahm a bo go nkpohko, kehm song tong bo re, “Anv, e yahke tahm go Jeusalem. Go wo ejum ajehng ajehng ji abanyehnamahr Esowo nyono no bada Mmon no nne, bahke lohko lim ano go etingitingi.BSBBSB: Then Jesus took the Twelve aside and said to them, “Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and everything the prophets have written about the Son of Man will be fulfilled.
32. 32EKATibre bo bahk-e yake, kak ane ba ki li Jus go ebo. Bo bahk-e nyoko, fere son-e, fere so atel wohng-e.BSBBSB: He will be delivered over to the Gentiles and will be mocked and insulted and spit upon.
33. 33EKABo bahk-e dohko, fere wul-e. Lꞌkang nfung era, á nyahme go elkv.”BSBBSB: They will flog Him and kill Him, and on the third day He will rise again.”
34. 34EKAAbatꞌtoono ebe wukem ejum ajehng ajehng ji á bungu no. Lenngem bo, tibre bo bꞌbehr bo alum nyao.BSBBSB: But the disciples did not understand any of these things. The meaning was hidden from them, and they did not comprehend what He was saying.
35. 35EKAJisos kehm jene song kabbe go Jeriko. Nwakamahr anyehng ji o nkpe a mbang, jo gboongo nsol.BSBBSB: As Jesus drew near to Jericho, a blind man was sitting beside the road, begging.
36. 36EKAEji á wuku ellong ane kpꞌsehnge, á kehm bahbe re, “Nenan ana?”BSBBSB: When he heard the crowd going by, he asked what was happening.
37. 37EKABo kehm-e tongo re, “Jisos ji Nasaret wo kpꞌsehnge.”BSBBSB: “Jesus of Nazareth is passing by,” they told him.
38. 38EKAOwo á kehm soro rabe re, “Jisos mmon no Devid, nong, me n lub fil-a ndon!”BSBBSB: So he called out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”
39. 39EKAAne ba jolo esꞌsong kehm-e nyame re á rahke ewok. Á kehm kpe tuungu na, rabe wahre wahre re, “Mmon no Devid, nong, me n fil-a ndon!”BSBBSB: Those who led the way admonished him to be silent, but he cried out all the louder, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
40. 40EKAJisos kehm yiimi, kehm tongo bo re, bo ko-e ba. Eji á ba rehng kabbe Jisos, owo Jisos kehm-e bahbe re,BSBBSB: Jesus stopped and directed that the man be brought to Him. When he had come near, Jesus asked him,
41. 41EKA“Anv, a kpꞌsebe re me n lim jen ka-a?” Á kehm faange re, “Nsoo, n kpꞌsebe re me n lub nyehn.”BSBBSB: “What do you want Me to do for you?” “Lord,” he said, “let me see again.”
42. 42EKAOwo Jisos kehm-e tongo re, “Fere jo nyehn anv! Eltaame ena ebwahng, wobnob.”BSBBSB: “Receive your sight!” Jesus replied. “Your faith has healed you.”
