4. 4EKAOwo Jisos kehm faange re, “Anv ń ka tiki lung bade ana Esowo limi ane go mbomannahb re, á limi ‘nnenlum, a nnenkala?’BSBBSB: Jesus answered, “Have you not read that from the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’
5. 5EKAfere bung re, ‘Ano wo wahnge nne bahke tahme nde, a nnyehn sa, bo song jol ebo ebo abola nkal ewe. Ane bao na abal bahke fere jol ajehng.’BSBBSB: and said, ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh’?
6. 6EKABo nehm kpe jol ane abal, bo bahke fere jol ana ngubjing anyehng. Ejum ji Esowo ma kono edi ajehng, nne kꞌyaame.”BSBBSB: So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.”
7. 7EKAOwo Bab Farisi kehm-e bahbe re, “Jen ji wahnge Moses kehm jehke ntahm re, nne jo nyon nwer, ka nkal ewe, kehm-e kame, á song?”BSBBSB: “Why then,” they asked, “did Moses order a man to give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?”
8. 8EKAJisos kehm faange re, “Moses jehke ntahm re wahn jo yehke akal ebahne ano tib go egahne etahnsi. Go mbomannahb jolem ano.BSBBSB: Jesus replied, “Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because of your hardness of heart. But it was not this way from the beginning.

Nne no lꞌko nnenkal no bo m-e yehke elbal, yebtob lim abiafem nya erehbe.”BSBBSB: Now I tell you that whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery.”
10. 10EKAAbatꞌtoono ebe kehm-e tongo re, “Joare ano wo li no bada nnenlum, a nnenkal, ga nob re nne kꞌko nkal.”BSBBSB: His disciples said to Him, “If this is the case between a man and his wife, it is better not to marry.”

Nne no lꞌmal kahn ana lohngo no, nong, á kahn.”BSBBSB: For there are eunuchs who were born that way; others were made that way by men; and still others live like eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it.”

15. 15EKAÁ kehm kunu bo abo, kehm tahme eje o.BSBBSB: And after He had placed His hands on them, He went on from there.
16. 16EKANne awohng kehm bake goji Jisos, ba bahb-e re, “Ntꞌtibi, nnoobo anyi m bahke limi, eji n lꞌbel elkpin ni li go njinanjini?”BSBBSB: Just then a man came up to Jesus and inquired, “Teacher, what good thing must I do to obtain eternal life?”

Lꞌjol re a kpꞌsebe re wo bel elkpin, jo bum atahm!”BSBBSB: “Why do you ask Me about what is good?” Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, keep the commandments.”
18. 18EKAOwo á kehm-e bahbe re, “Atahm anya?” Jisos kehm-e faange re, “Ka jo wul nne! Ka jo lim erehbe! Ka jo v ejv! Ka jo yiimi ntianse efahnge!BSBBSB: “Which ones?” the man asked. Jesus answered, “‘Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not bear false witness,

20. 20EKAOwo njangkun nyio kehm-e faange re, “Nyaa kpee n kpo bꞌbum. Anv, ejum aji kpe li, ji m bahke kpe lim!”BSBBSB: “All these I have kept,” said the young man. “What do I still lack?”
21. 21EKAJisos kehm-e tongo re, “A lꞌseb re wo jol go nseenge, song, wo song gungu nsol kpee nyi a kpi no, ko akpohko nyao song ka akpak, a bahke bele afang go ejahbetul Esowo, wo feere ba toon-m.”BSBBSB: Jesus told him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me.”
22. 22EKAEji njangkun nyio wuku ano, á kehm tahme eje ndon ndon. Tibre á fange sehng.BSBBSB: When the young man heard this, he went away in sorrow, because he had great wealth.
23. 23EKAJisos kehm bungu tong abatꞌtoono ebe re, “Etingitingi, n kp-n tongo re, Bahke riidi sehng re, efange nne kehm lehke etul bi Esowo.BSBBSB: Then Jesus said to His disciples, “Truly I tell you, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.
24. 24EKAN kp-n kpeke tong re, Re efange nne kehm yele go ejahbetul Esowo, ekamel bahke sehnge go mbang a nga.”BSBBSB: Again I tell you, 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.”
25. 25EKAAbatꞌtoono ebe wuku ano, kehm sahb kpꞌkpo bo esi, bo kehm bahbe re, “Wo anv, nne awo bahke kehm bele eltahre me?”BSBBSB: When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, “Who then can be saved?”

28. 28EKAJisos kehm tongo bo re, “Etingitingi, n kp-n tongo re, Ngare nyi Mmon no nne bahke jehke go eti etul ji ellub ene, ngare nyio nyi nsol kpee ma yaange, jol nyi nfenfe, owo wahn jia ji jo toon-m ḿ bahke tob ji go ewubu a nti etul ebal, fere lam ewubu etꞌtohngo ebbal bi Israel.BSBBSB: Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, in the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on His glorious throne, you who have followed Me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
29. 29EKANne awohng awohng no lꞌyake etahk eje, yake abonanyehn, yake nde, yake nnyehn, yake abon ebe, fere yake egbe eje tib go esi mbing enyame, á bahke bele budu nkpel atahl alon, fere bel elkpin ni li go njinanjini.BSBBSB: And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or fields for the sake of My name will receive a hundredfold and will inherit eternal life.
