Matthew 12 (GEL)

1Da-u̱ Ho̱-du̱ u̱r-Hure̱ Yahuda-ne̱ no̱me̱, Ye̱so̱ dor u̱-me̱ tak-tu̱ arkama. A-doru̱ wa o̱ ho̱g-du̱ u̱s-me̱r, e̱ he̱e̱se̱ getmu̱ ro̱p-tu̱ arkama e̱ hu̱ u̱t-he̱ke̱m m-tu̱ m-tu̱.At that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the Sabbath. His disciples were hungry and began to pick the heads of grain and eat them.

2Da-u̱ Farisa-ne̱ hyane̱ iya, se̱ e̱ zu̱ wu̱n, <<Hyan, a-doru̱ ró e̱ o̱ no̱m-du̱ no̱m-u̱ bo̱r-tu̱ hose̱ u̱t-no̱m u̱ Ho̱-du̱ u̱r-Hure̱.>>When the Pharisees saw this, they said to Him, “Look, Your disciples are doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath.”

3Ye̱so̱ shu̱s wa zu̱ u̱n, <<¿No̱ karu̱nte̱ no̱m-u̱ Dawuda no̱me̱, da-u̱ wa u̱ hu̱u̱b-u̱t wa ne̱ ho̱ge̱ u̱s-me̱r da?Jesus replied, “Have you not read what David did when he and his companions were hungry?

4U̱ka wa tote̱ u̱-me̱ bu-u̱ u-Ru̱, wa u̱ hu̱u̱b-u̱t wa ne̱, e̱ re no̱m u̱t-re̱ u̱r-sak, u̱ o̱tte̱ ge̱r u̱ kame̱ wa ko̱ hu̱u̱b-tu̱ m-ha wa ne̱ e̱ re̱ da, se̱di a-to̱o̱g-ne̱.He entered the house of God, and he and his companions ate the consecrated bread, which was not lawful for them to eat, but only for the priests.

5No̱ karu̱nte̱ u̱-me̱ bo̱r-tu̱ Ru̱-u̱ yase̱ Mosa, u̱ka a-to̱o̱g-ne̱ hopte̱ pas-du̱ bo̱r-tu̱ Ho̱-du̱ u̱r-Hure̱ u̱-me̱ be-du̱ u̱r-shu̱'u̱t du̱ Wa-ko̱-uyan, u̱ wa nomte̱ m-ank u̱ ho̱-u̱r re̱, tu̱msu̱ shu̱'u̱te̱ u̱t-ba'as da.Or haven’t you read in the Law that on the Sabbath the priests in the temple break the Sabbath and yet are innocent?

6U̱m o̱ waru̱ no̱, wu̱ ze̱ge̱ be-du̱ u̱r-shu̱'u̱t du̱ Wa-ko̱-uyan u̱ ya u̱ ane̱.But I tell you that One greater than the temple is here.

7U̱zu̱ no̱ nak zu̱n-mu̱ rem-u̱s sin-se̱, <O̱n-de̱ u̱m u̱t-sa, za to̱o̱g da,> no̱ za kabu̱g a-za u̱t-ba'as u̱ka a-u̱t-ba'as-ne̱ da.If only you had known the meaning of ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice,’ you would not have condemned the innocent.

8U̱m zu̱u̱g iya remu̱ zu̱ Wa'-u̱ ne̱t o̱tte̱ u̱r-faru̱k u̱ o̱ Ho̱-du̱ u̱r-Hure̱.>>For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.”

9Ye̱so̱ yage̱ be-du̱ wa o̱tte̱, wa to u̱-me̱ bu-u̱ u̱t-ko̱se̱ u̱ Yahuda-ne̱.Moving on from there, Jesus entered their synagogue,

10Yaku̱n campa-ya o̱ u̱ku̱n wu̱ kom-u̱ so̱se̱. E̱ u̱t-sa e̱ kum no̱mu̱ e̱ ke̱tu̱ wu̱n, se̱ e̱ shit wu̱n u̱zu̱, <<¿Bo̱r-tu̱ zu̱u̱g u̱ ne̱t u̱ hast u̱s-go̱m u̱ Ho̱-du̱ u̱r-Hure̱?>>and a man with a withered hand was there. In order to accuse Jesus, they asked Him, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”

11Wa zu̱ u̱n, <<¿A waku̱n u̱ te̱k-u̱ no̱ o̱tte̱ u-ca, se̱ ya he u̱-me̱ u̱r-du u̱ Ho̱-du̱ u̱r-Hure̱, wa za rwu̱tu̱n ya da?He replied, “If one of you has a sheep and it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will he not take hold of it and lift it out?

12Ne̱t ze̱k u-ca m-sek sok. Remu̱ iya, bo̱r-u̱t it hooste̱ it se̱gu̱ waku̱n u̱ Ho̱-du̱ u̱r-Hure̱ da.>>How much more valuable is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.”

13Tu̱msu̱ wa zu̱ campa-u ya wu̱ kom-u̱ so̱-se̱, <<Nabne̱ kom-u ró!>> Wa nu̱b u-kom hen, za rem kom-u̱ kum m-yar u̱ka kom u-gan.Then Jesus said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” So he stretched it out, and it was restored to full use, just like the other.

14Farisa-ne̱ ru e̱ zo̱ng u̱ka e̱ do̱te̱ ho̱du̱ Ye̱so̱.But the Pharisees went out and plotted how they might kill Jesus.

15Da-u̱ Ye̱so̱ nape̱ no̱m-u̱ e̱ zo̱nge̱, se̱ wa yage̱ be-u̱r re̱. U̱t-ne̱t u-tát e̱ do̱r wu̱n, tu̱msu̱ e̱ kwu̱ng m-yar be̱e̱t.Aware of this, Jesus withdrew from that place. Large crowds followed Him, and He healed them all,

16Wa no̱mu̱ u̱n u̱t-him, u̱zu̱ a u̱n waru̱ waku̱n mo̱t-u̱t rò da.warning them not to make Him known.

17Tunto̱ u̱t-be̱e̱t na no̱ng to̱ remu̱ na shu̱u̱ste̱ no̱mu̱ wa-warru̱ rem-su̱ u-Ru̱ Ishaya ware̱.This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah:

18<<Gwat To̱k-u̱ ri ya, wu̱ u̱m dage̱, tu̱msu̱ wu̱ u̱m o̱ u̱t-cwan, wu̱ u̱m o̱ ho̱g-du̱ zwar-u̱r wa sok. U̱m do̱'e̱ wa'-u̱ wu̱n Yar-u ri, tu̱msu̱ wa do̱'e̱ u̱ u̱t-bu̱t u̱zu̱ Ru̱-u̱ de̱ no̱mu̱ a-za Yahuda-ne̱ kwu̱p-du̱ u̱s-rem u̱ka ku̱mte̱.“Here is My Servant, whom I have chosen, My beloved, in whom My soul delights. I will put My Spirit on Him, and He will proclaim justice to the nations.

19Wa za no̱m-du̱ inan, ko̱ rem-su̱ u-har da, waku̱n za ho̱g-du̱ cwar-u wa u̱s-fu̱n da.He will not quarrel or cry out; no one will hear His voice in the streets.

20Wa za ge̱t-du̱ tampur u̱ u̱t-sa u̱t-ge̱t da, Hitirra yu̱ u̱t-sa u̱t-mu̱ru̱s wu̱n za ryu̱m-du̱ ya da. Se̱ wa wa'ag nip-tu̱ re u̱r-ko̱rro̱.A bruised reed He will not break, and a smoldering wick He will not extinguish, till He leads justice to victory.

21I za-Yahuda-ne̱ da, e̱ de̱ wadu̱ jab-u̱s e̱ u̱-me̱ dim-u̱r Ye̱so̱.>>In His name the nations will put their hope.”

22U̱n hatu̱n wu̱n waku̱n wu̱ o̱tte̱ no̱m u̱s-te, wa zatte̱ is da tu̱msu̱ wa kerte̱ u̱s-rem da. Ye̱so̱ ye' wa m-yar, campa-u ya no̱m u̱s-rem tu̱msu̱ wa hyen.Then a demon-possessed man who was blind and mute was brought to Jesus, and He healed the man so that he could speak and see.

23Ne̱t-tu̱ no̱m mu̱rimmo̱ sok e̱ zu̱, <<¿A ne̱t unwa o̱ye̱ Mesaya da, wu̱ rwu̱ne̱ du̱gu̱ ko̱-u̱r Dawuda, wu̱ in wote̱ jab?>>The crowds were astounded and asked, “Could this be the Son of David?”

24Da-u̱ Farisa-ne̱ ho̱ge̱ iya, e̱ zu̱, <<Be̱b-u̱r Beyerzebu, faru̱k-u̱ no̱m u̱s-te de̱, wa o̱tte̱ rutu̱ no̱m u̱s-te.>>But when the Pharisees heard this, they said, “Only by Beelzebul, the prince of demons, does this man drive out demons.”

25Ba Ye̱so̱ nape̱ no̱mu̱ o̱ dorog-u̱s u̱n, se̱ wa zu̱ u̱n, <<Faru̱k-du̱ mo̱te̱ u-yu̱r, kowan o̱ shu̱'u̱t-u̱r yo̱-de̱ e̱ o̱r-u̱ wa ne̱, de̱-de̱ faru̱k de̱ za u̱t-ees da. Tu̱msu̱ u-bo̱, ko̱ bu-u̱ ne̱t-tu̱ u-bu za shu̱'u̱t-u̱r so̱-de̱ da, bu-u o̱ za u̱t-es da.Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself will be laid waste, and every city or household divided against itself will not stand.

26A-no̱m u̱s-te du̱gu̱-du̱ faru̱k-du̱ faru̱k-u̱ no̱m u̱s-te mo̱te̱, shu̱'u̱te̱ faru̱k-u̱ no̱m u̱s-te o̱ m-dum u̱ hi-u̱r wa ne̱, ¿re̱ faru̱k-u̱r wa do̱te̱ u̱t eese?If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then can his kingdom stand?

27Abite̱ Beyerzebu be̱b-du̱ faru̱k-u̱ no̱m u̱s-te de̱ u̱m o̱tte̱ rutu̱ no̱m u̱s-te, ¿A-doru̱ no̱ be̱b-u̱r wan do̱'e̱ rutte̱? A-doru̱ no̱, de̱ kwu̱pu̱ no̱ sin-se̱ rem-se̱.And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.

28Abite̱ me̱ he̱n be̱b-du̱ Yar-u u-Ru̱ o̱ u̱m o̱tte̱ rutu̱ no̱m u̱s-te, shu̱'u̱te̱ u̱zu̱ faru̱k-du̱ u-Ru̱ hagu̱n u̱ me̱ no̱.But if I drive out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.

29<<Waku̱n zaar wu̱ de̱ cwa-du̱ bu-u̱ wa-u̱r-be̱b wa koos cwu̱-u̱t wa da, se̱ da wa gu̱gru̱sse̱ wa u-ro, kanda wa kerte̱ koosu̱ cwu̱-tu̱ bu-u wa.Or again, how can anyone enter a strong man’s house and steal his possessions, unless he first ties up the strong man? Then he can plunder his house.

30<<Wu̱ za u̱r-kot u̱ me̱ ne̱ da, wa o̱ shu̱'u̱t-u̱r yo̱-de̱ u̱ me̱ ne̱; tu̱msu̱ wu̱ se̱gu̱ me̱ u̱t-kargu̱sse̱ da, bu̱rgu̱sse̱ to̱ wa o̱tte̱.He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.

31Iya o̱ he̱n, u̱m o̱ waru̱ no̱, na de̱ no̱mu̱ ne̱t-ne̱ u̱r-ho̱ du̱ ko̱-uyan ba'as-to̱, u̱s-ju̱ru̱m ne̱ su̱ e̱ no̱me̱ u-Ru̱, se̱di wu̱ no̱me̱ rem-su̱ u̱s-ju̱ru̱m u̱du̱ Yar u-Ru̱ na za no̱mu̱ wa hastu̱ ba'as-tu̱ da.Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven.

32Wu̱ pyape̱ Wa'-u̱ Ne̱t na no̱mu̱ wa u̱r-ho̱, se̱di wu̱ pyape̱ Yar-u u-Ru̱, na za no̱mu̱ wa u̱r-ho̱ da, u̱ uno̱ da-o̱ ko̱ da-u̱ o̱o̱ne̱.Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the one to come.

33<<Te-yu̱ o̱ so̱-ya, ya mu̱t ya-tu̱ o̱ so̱-to̱. Te-yu̱ za so̱-ya ya mu̱t ya-u̱t yo̱-to̱, na nu̱p u-te du̱gu̱ ya-u̱t wa.Make a tree good and its fruit will be good, or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is known by its fruit.

34No̱ fa' u̱ yo̱-ye̱, ¿re̱ no̱ do̱te̱ keru̱ warru̱ no̱m-tu̱ o̱ so̱-to̱ ba shu̱'u̱te̱ u̱zu̱ no̱ ne̱t-u̱t yo̱-to̱ to̱? No̱mu̱ o̱ me̱ jab o̱ rwu̱ne̱ u-nu.You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything good? For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks.

35Ne̱t-u̱ so̱-wa wu̱r no̱mu̱ o̱ so̱-o̱, du̱gu̱ me̱ jab-u̱ wa u̱ so̱-o̱, tu̱msu̱ ne̱t-u̱ yo̱-o̱ rwu̱tu̱n no̱m-u̱t yo̱-to̱ tu̱ o̱ jab-u̱ yo̱-o̱ wa.The good man brings good things out of his good store of treasure, and the evil man brings evil things out of his evil store of treasure.

36Se̱di u̱m o̱ waru̱ no̱, u̱ ho̱-du̱ kwu̱p-du̱ u̱s-rem, ko̱wan de̱ shu̱'u̱t na kwu̱pu̱ wa u̱s-rem u̱ka ku̱mte̱, ko̱ remu̱ rem-su̱ m-zan su̱ ware̱.But I tell you that men will give an account on the day of judgment for every careless word they have spoken.

37Remu̱ rem-su̱ bo̱ ware̱, se̱ na do̱te̱ kwu̱pu̱ bo̱ u̱s-rem, ko̱ se̱ ruut bo̱, ko̱ tu̱msu̱ se̱ ru̱ bo̱.>>For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned.”

38E̱ke̱n u̱ te̱k-u̱ a-ko̱se̱-tu̱ u-bo̱r ne̱, u̱ Farisa-ne̱ e̱ zu̱, <<Wa-m-nap, it u̱t-sa bo̱ no̱m no̱m-tu̱ m-shin u̱ka do̱te̱ ko̱se̱ it u̱zu̱ Ru̱-o̱ to̱mnu̱ bo̱.>>Then some of the scribes and Pharisees said to Him, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from You.”

39Se̱ wa shu̱s wa zu̱, <<Ne̱t-tu̱ u̱no̱ da-o̱ no̱ no̱ng u̱ yo̱ye̱, tu̱msu̱ no̱ zatte̱ gye̱r-u u-Ru̱ da. E̱ u̱t-sa e̱ hyan u̱s-nap, se̱di na za ko̱su̱ e̱ se̱ke̱n napse̱ da, se̱di go̱-du̱ su̱ wa-warru̱ rem-su̱ u-Ru̱ Yunana.Jesus replied, “A wicked and adulterous generation demands a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.

40U̱ka Yunana nomte̱ m-roog u̱t-tu̱t m-gyu̱p u-ho̱ ne̱ u̱-me̱ me̱n-tu̱ jan-u yat-ya, iya o̱ he̱n Wa'-u̱ Ne̱t do̱te̱ no̱m-du̱ m-roog u̱t-tu̱t, m-gyu̱p u-ho̱ ne̱ u̱ me̱n-tu̱ u-dak.For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

Waku̱n wu̱ ze̱ge̱ Yunana ya u̱ ane̱, no̱ gu̱gu̱m yage̱-du̱ u̱t-ba'as.The men of Nineveh will stand at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now One greater than Jonah is here.

43<<A no̱m-yu̱ u̱s-te ru war-u̱ ne̱t, wa ru wa no̱m u̱t-riig u̱t-be tu̱ za m-bu̱, remu̱ wa kum-u̱t be-du̱ u̱r-hure̱. Se̱di a wa kume̱ da,When an unclean spirit comes out of a man, it passes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it.

And the final plight of that man is worse than the first. So will it be with this wicked generation.”

48Ye̱so̱ shu̱s wa zu̱, <<¿Wana o̱ ino-u ri tu̱msu̱ wana o̱ hu̱u̱b-tu̱ u̱r-matu̱ ri?>>But Jesus replied, “Who is My mother, and who are My brothers?”
