Luke 11 (GYZ) · Opened

1Gas gon, Yesu na̱ma ngemti Nya ka̱lu gon. Ta̱ paki wugo, yek ɗe na̱m ka̱ ma̱n kopti jwas wulti ɗe, <<Bagaa, mbokinii ang ten kangwe ma ngem Nya wu, na̱k kangwe Yohana mboki ang ma̱n kopti jwas wu.>>One day in a place where Jesus had just finished praying, one of His disciples requested, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.”

2Yek Yesu wulsi ɗe, <<Ka̱a̱ ɓa ngem Nya go aka̱ wule, <Nya bal Aba, ta̱ nalli shin gwa ma̱n cilti, da̱m ɗe guu ka̱ mbala̱n mas ten dii atli.So Jesus told them, “When you pray, say: ‘Father, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come.

3Ba̱lnii ilga̱ nguki ga̱ mas cin.Give us each day our daily bread.

4A ka̱ taasini byas wul jina̱n ka na̱k gwe ama̱ taas ga̱ yilkeni ɗa̱ ten mbadl ga̱na̱n ka̱wu. Ba̱k zakni ta̱n pa̱l byas wul so.> >>And forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into temptation.’”

5Yek Yesu po wul ma̱n kopti jwas ɗa̱ɗe, <<Wok nii ka̱ kii gwe ɗe ta li mal yela̱n da̱nti gwasi ka̱ tlo gasi ata̱ ngemit duul burodi ɗe mekan, yek ta̱ wulti ɗe,Then Jesus said to them, “Suppose one of you goes to his friend at midnight and says, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,

6<Yekgu yela̱n gon gi tul mala̱nni tet ka̱lu gon, aba̱ ilga̱ nguki gwe ba ba̱lti wu ni ɗa̱ so.>because a friend of mine has come to me on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him.’

7<<A paa yela̱n da̱nti gwe ta̱ la ngot burodi malti wu wul tet punka ɗe, <Ba̱k hwota̱n so, ma̱ le dlabii ga̱na̱n ka̱wi, ma̱ mul atl wi suk mil jini bama̱n tlat nya a ba̱lki ilgon so.>And suppose the one inside answers, ‘Do not bother me. My door is already shut, and my children and I are in bed. I cannot get up to give you anything.’

8A ni kii ma hwiti ɗe ta tlinya ata̱ ba̱lti ilgon ten ɗe ti wo yela̱n da̱nti gwas so, ama na̱k ɗe ta̱ ngaɓit na̱k ngemti wu ta tlinya ata̱ ba̱lti mas ilgwe ta̱ lami wu.I tell you, even though he will not get up to provide for him because of his friendship, yet because of the man’s persistence, he will get up and give him as much as he needs.

9<<A ni kii ma hwiti ɗa̱ɗe, pa̱nta ngemti, Nya a ba̱lkii. Pa̱nta ngoti, ka mbi. Pa̱nta kotlti dlabiimi, Nya a ɓulikii.So I tell you: Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.

10Mas ma̱lgwe ngemi go, Nya a ba̱lti. Ma̱lgwe ngwe go, ta mbi. Ma̱lgwe ɓo dlabiimi go, Nya a ɓuliti.For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.

11<<Wok yen gwas a ngemit kwes ka̱ kii, ata̱ ba̱lti wuci wo?What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead?

12Sogo, ta̱ yen gwas ngemit mbutli, ata̱ ba̱lti yenda̱l wo?Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?

13Kume kii ma̱n pa̱lti byas wul yek ka̱ yis kangwe ka ba̱l hwa wul mil jwaka̱n go, ɗa̱ nii ka̱n a kan bal Aba ga̱na̱n ga̱ to nya ka̱wu gaa gwi, ti ɗe ta ba̱l Shishi ga̱ Nya ma̱jwe ngemti wu.>>So if you who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!”

14Gas gon Yesu na̱ma yilla̱t ga̱ ma̱zhe gwe ba̱ta ga̱ɓa sowu ɗa̱ka̱ ma̱lgon ka. Yek ma̱zhesi yil ka̱ wugo, yek ma̱li ga̱ɓa yek ɓanti ci mbala̱n.One day Jesus was driving out a demon that was mute. And when the demon was gone, the man who had been mute spoke. The crowds were amazed,

15Yek naa mbala̱mi wule, <<Guu ga̱ ma̱zhe ka̱ ba̱lti nda̱lti yilla̱t ma̱zhe ka.>>but some of them said, “It is by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons, that He drives out demons.”

16Naa mbala̱mi jon lami ta̱s yen ilgwe ta pa̱li wu, yek sa̱ wulti ɗe, <<Pa̱lini wul cit ɓanti, ta̱n yisi ɗe sut mal nya ka̱n ka̱ ni.>>And others tested Him by demanding a sign from heaven.

17Yek Yesu yis daamti gwasa̱n wugo yek ta̱ wulsi ɗe, <<Kume mbala̱n ka̱ ba̱n ɗe na̱m dlansi ten tli gwasa̱n go, ba̱mi a dla̱l so, nu ka̱n mas lubii gwe calti ɗe lop asa̱ na̱ma nget ji yilkeni go lubiimi a nda.Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself will be laid waste, and a house divided against a house will fall.

18Kume Sheɗan calti ɗe lop ata̱ na̱ma nget ga̱ gaa gwas go, nii ka̱n nalti gwas a dla̱l gwi? Ka̱a̱ wule, na̱ nda̱lti ga̱ guu ma̱zhe ka̱n a na̱ma yilla̱t ga̱ ma̱zhe ka.If Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom stand? After all, you say that I drive out demons by Beelzebul.

19Kume ka̱ wule, na̱ nda̱lti ga̱ guu ma̱zhe ka̱n a na̱ma yilla̱t ma̱zhe ka̱go, a kii hwa, na̱ nda̱lti ga̱ wok aka̱ yilli ma̱zhesi ka̱ wo?And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.

20Ama kume na̱ nda̱lti ga̱ Nya ka̱n a na̱ma yilla̱t ga̱ ma̱zhe ka̱go, cin gwe mbala̱n a kan Nya ɗe guu ka̱ mbadl gwasa̱n wu ɓa tuli.But if I drive out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.

21<<Kume nda̱li mbala̱n na̱ buula gwas da̱n na̱ ka̱n gaa ten ɓa̱t boo gwas go, ilgon a ta̱n wul lubii gwas so.When a strong man, fully armed, guards his house, his possessions are secure.

22Ama kume ma̱lgwe nda̱l manti wu tuli, yek ta̱ ndat na̱ dlanti, yek ta̱ man ngetl gwas go ta yem mas buula jwas jwe ta̱ nda̱l giɓi wu ka, ata̱ hwuli mbala̱n mas wul jwasi.But when someone stronger attacks and overpowers him, he takes away the armor in which the man trusted, and then he divides up his plunder.

23<<Ma̱lgwe ni suk ami sogo, nget ka̱n ta̱ na̱ma nget gini; ma̱lgwe na̱ma mooti suk ami sogo, ta̱ na̱ma catti ka.He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.

24A kume duu ma̱zhe yil ɗa̱ka̱ tli ga̱ mbala̱n ka̱ wu, ata̱ ngusi ma̱tlti ɗa̱nka̱ me ka ka̱lu gwe ba̱ ze ni ɗa̱ sowu ta̱s mbi lu shukti. Kume ta̱ mbi sowu, apaa ta̱ wule, <Ha̱n ta̱ pal te ka̱ ma̱lgwe a yil tet wu ka.>When an unclean spirit comes out of a man, it passes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’

25Kume ta̱ lak mbi mbadl ma̱li sa̱ taasi ka yek sa̱ la̱ka̱mi ka̱ wu,On its return, it finds the house swept clean and put in order.

26ata̱ lak yem ma̱zhesi jon teɗi ɗe nitgi jwe yoki manti wu ta̱s lak da̱n ka̱li. Pakti da̱nti ga̱ ma̱llu a lil man kangwe ta̱ nda zhile wu.>>Then it goes and brings seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and dwell there. And the final plight of that man is worse than the first.”

27Yesu dla̱m nu wugo, yek kili gon wulti na̱ nda̱lti ɗe, <<Ta Nya ba̱l hwa wul kili gwe zaki yek ta̱ ngipki yek ka̱ nal wu.>>As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd raised her voice and said, “Blessed is the womb that bore You, and blessed are the breasts that nursed You!”

28Yek Yesu wulti ɗe, <<Nu ka̱n ni, ama ma̱jwe kum ga̱ɓa ga̱ Nya yek sa̱ koɓi wu mbi hwa wul mani.>>But He replied, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.”

29Mbala̱n ngusi mba̱lti wonta̱t mal Yesu wu, yek ta̱ nda wulti gwasa̱n ɗe, <<Mbala̱n ji se wo byas mbala̱n ka̱n, lamti gwasa̱n wo ta̱ pa̱lisi wul cit ɓanti ama ba̱sa yeni so se ga̱ Yona wu.As the crowds were increasing, Jesus said, “This is a wicked generation. It demands a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.

30Na̱k gwe Yona da̱n ɗe wul cit ɓanti mal ma̱n Neniba wu, nu ka̱n ami Yen ga̱ Mbala̱n a da̱mi mbala̱n ji se.For as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so the Son of Man will be a sign to this generation.

31Gas pakti ga̱ dii atl wo, guu ga̱ ma̱dli tet Sheba a kudu a tlinya suk mbala̱n ji se, ata̱ hwisi ɗe sa̱ pa̱l hwa wul so. Ta̱ tul tet dlenti ta̱s kum ga̱ɓa ɓotlka̱n ga̱ guu Sulemanu, yek ma̱lgwe man Sulemanu wuk ɓal wu.The Queen of the South will rise at the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and now One greater than Solomon is here.

32Gas pakti ga̱ dii atl wo, ma̱n Neniba a tlinya suk mbala̱n ji se asa̱ hwisi ɗe sa pa̱l hwa wul so na̱k ɗe si wo sa̱ ci atl gaa ɗe Yona hwisi ga̱ɓa ga̱ Nya wu, a yekgu ma̱lgwe man Yona wuk ɓal wu.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.

33<<Mbala̱n a lak wutu ten pitila ata̱ hwuda̱li ka̱ so, sogo ata̱ yitle ka na̱ gal so, ama ta zi ka̱lu gwe mas ma̱lgwe te ka̱ biimi wu a yen cilti wu.No one lights a lamp and puts it in a cellar or under a basket. Instead, he sets it on a stand, so those who enter can see the light.

34Gwel ka̱ɗe cilti ga̱ tli, kume gwel gwa ni hwaɓi wu, tli gwa ani na̱ cilti, ama kume gwel gwa ni hwaɓi sogo, mas tli gwa ani ka̱ da̱mshal.Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are good, your whole body also is full of light. But when they are bad, your body is full of darkness.

35Pa̱n ɗem'ɗem ba̱ cilti gwaka̱n da̱n ɗe da̱mshal so.Be careful, then, that the light within you is not darkness.

36Kume mas tli gwa ni na̱ cilti wu, da̱mshal ani kii ɗa̱ so, mas a da̱m na̱ cilti na̱k gwe a pitila cilli lu wu.>>So if your whole body is full of light, with no part of it in darkness, you will be radiant, as though a lamp were shining on you.”

37Yesu pak ga̱ɓe wugo, yek ba Paresi gon mbet a lubii ɗatka ta̱s nguk wul, yek Yesu li ka̱ lubiimi ta̱s nguki.As Jesus was speaking, a Pharisee invited Him to dine with him; so He went in and reclined at the table.

38Yek ba Paresisi yeni ɗe Yesu pol ang paa ta̱ nda ngukti na̱k kangwe a Ma̱n Yehuda pa̱li wu sogo, yek ili hwotti.But the Pharisee was surprised to see that Jesus did not first wash before the meal.

39Yek Yesu wulti ɗe, <<Kii ma̱n Paresi wo aka̱ pol mbuka ze suk gali, ama mbadl gwaka̱n ni ga̱ njikmi na̱ lamti mot wul suk yokiti.Then the Lord said, “Now you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness.

40Ka̱dla̱n ka̱ɗe kii, ka̱ yisi ɗe Nya gwe pa̱l tukaali wu ka̱ pa̱l tugiɓi pak sa?You fools! Did not the One who made the outside make the inside as well?

41Ka ba̱l ilga̱ nguki ma̱jwe ba̱ ilgon nisi ɗa̱ sowu tot ka̱ gal gwe aka̱ poli wu, a mbuni kii mal Nya mani.But give as alms the things that are within you, and behold, everything will be clean for you.

42<<Ka̱a̱ da̱n ɗe wul cit gonti wi ma̱n Paresi, na̱k ɗe aka̱ ba̱l Nya ɗe na̱m ka̱ kutl ka̱ wul jwe aka̱ mbi wu na̱k wul wolo suk dik daa suk mitlgulu suk ngum, ama zok da̱nti suk lamti Nya wo yek ba̱ hwotkii so. Ngetli ka̱n ta̱k koɓa̱n jwisi, ama ba̱k zaka̱n jon ju so.Woe to you Pharisees! For you pay tithes of mint, rue, and every herb, but you disregard justice and the love of God. You should have practiced the latter without neglecting the former.

43<<Ka̱a̱ da̱n ɗe wul cit gonti wi ma̱n Paresi, na̱k ɗe lamti gwaka̱n wo ta̱s ba̱lkii hwa lu da̱nti ka̱lu motgaa ga̱ gwasa̱n ata̱ mbala̱n pita ga̱ɓet gwaka̱n ka̱lu motgaa wulti wul.Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the chief seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.

44<<Ka̱a̱ da̱n ɗe wul cit gonti wi, kii ma̱n Paresi na̱k gaa zukɗi gwe ba̱ mbala̱n a yeni sowu ka̱n ka̱ ni, jwe mbala̱n jwaka̱n na̱ma la̱t dani a ba̱sa̱ yisi ɗe yek ka laki asa̱ da̱n ɗe ma̱n da̱ska̱n sowu.>>Woe to you! For you are like unmarked graves, which men walk over without even noticing.”

45Yek gon ka̱ ma̱n yisti mba̱t ga̱ Musa wul Yesu ɗe, <<Ma̱n lishti, kume ka̱ dla̱m nugo, mi mago ka̱ byal nii.>>One of the experts in the law told Him, “Teacher, when You say these things, You insult us as well.”

46Yek Yesu wule, <<Ka̱a̱ da̱n ɗe wul cit gonti wi, kii ma̱n yisti mba̱t ga̱ Musa, na̱k ɗe ka̱a̱ zi diɓa̱l mba̱t mbala̱n ama kii wo ba̱ka zisi ang ta̱s man kopti ɗa̱ sowu.“Woe to you as well, experts in the law!” He replied. “For you weigh men down with heavy burdens, but you yourselves will not lift a finger to lighten their load.

47<<Ka̱a̱ da̱n ɗe wul cit gonti wi na̱k ɗe ka̱a̱ kin gaa zukɗi ga̱ ma̱n dla̱mti ga̱ɓa ga̱ Nya mbuni jwe ma̱jwaka̱n ji cina tlosi wu.Woe to you! For you build tombs for the prophets, but it was your fathers who killed them.

48Kii na̱ gaa gwaka̱n, ka̱ yisi yek ka̱ kan ka̱ mbadl gwaka̱n ilgwe mbala̱n jwaka̱n ji cina pa̱li wu. Sa̱ tlo ma̱n dla̱mti ga̱ɓa ga̱ Nya yek kii ne go yek ka̱ kop kaal gwasa̱n ɗe ka̱ kin gaa zukɗi jwasa̱n mbuni wu.So you are witnesses consenting to the deeds of your fathers: They killed the prophets, and you build their tombs.

49Yek laki yek Nya wul ka̱ yisti gwas ɗe, <Ba shinisi lu na̱ mil shinti ga̱ɓa ga̱ Nya suk mil shinti ji botli, mbala̱n a tlo naami, asa̱ nol naami.>Because of this, the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send them prophets and apostles; some of them they will kill and others they will persecute.’

50Na̱ nu ka̱n Nya a dop mbala̱n ji se na̱ byas wul jwasa̱n ɗe sa tlo mas ma̱n dla̱mti ga̱ɓa ga̱ Nya tet ten ndat zhila da̱nti ka̱ dii atli.As a result, this generation will be charged with the blood of all the prophets that has been shed since the foundation of the world,

51Nde tet ten hwulan ga̱ Habila yek su sut ten ga̱ Zakariya, ma̱lgwe sa̱ tlot ka̱ tlo ga̱ lu takti wul Nya ka̱lu ma̱n cilti ka̱ lubii ga̱ Nya wu.

Yes, I tell you, all of it will be charged to this generation.

52<<Ka̱a̱ da̱n ɗe wul cit gonti wi, kii ma̱n yisti mba̱t ga̱ Musa, na̱k ɗe ka̱a̱ yis mba̱ti yek ka̱a̱ nge kopti kii gaa gwaka̱n, a ba̱ka̱a̱ zak ma̱lgon ta̱s yisi so.>>Woe to you experts in the law! For you have taken away the key to knowledge. You yourselves have not entered, and you have hindered those who were entering.”

53Yesu zak lwisi wugo, yek ma̱n yisti mba̱t ga̱ Muse suk ma̱n Paresi nda ngabti gwasi, yek sa̱ ngusit ngot bi na̱ kumti ga̱s wul wonti.As Jesus went on from there, the scribes and Pharisees began to oppose Him bitterly and to ply Him with questions about many things,
