GYZ
Yek Yesu hwi cinga̱lti ga̱ɓa ma̱n kopti jwasi, kangwe sa ngusi tlot gwasa̱n ten ngemti Nya a ba̱s nak sowu.
BSB
BSB:
Then Jesus told them a parable about their need to pray at all times and not lose heart:
2
GYZ
Yek ta̱ wulsi ɗe, <<Ma̱n kisti ga̱ɓa gon ni ɗa̱ ka̱ ba̱n gon, ma̱lgwe ba̱ta̱ ɓanti Nya so a ba̱ta̱ yen gonti ga̱ ma̱lgon sowu.
BSB
BSB:
“In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected men.
3
GYZ
A guli kili gon ni ka̱ ba̱mi pak, yek ta̱ ngusi la̱t mal ma̱n kisti ga̱ɓe ta̱s pa̱lit hwa kisti ga̱ɓa ka̱ dlo gwas suk ma̱n nget gwasi.
BSB
BSB:
And there was a widow in that town who kept appealing to him, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’
4
GYZ
<<Yek ma̱n kisti ga̱ɓe nda ngeti, ama yek ta̱ lak wul ka̱ mbadl gwas ɗe, <Ko ɗe a ɓanti Nya so aba̱ ma̱lgon hwota̱n sowu,
BSB
BSB:
For a while he refused, but later he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect men,
5
GYZ
ama na̱k ɗe guli kili ga̱n twe gaa na̱ ngemti wu, ba pa̱lit ilgwe ta̱ lami wu ta̱s zaka̱nni ta shuki.> >>
BSB
BSB:
yet because this widow keeps pestering me, I will give her justice. Otherwise, she will wear me out with her perpetual requests.’”
6
GYZ
Yek Yesu Bagaa wulsi ɗe, <<Ɓo kuma̱n ilgwe ma̱n kisti ga̱ɓa gwe ba̱ta pa̱l gem ka kisti ga̱ɓa gwas sowu dla̱m wu.
BSB
BSB:
And the Lord said,
“Listen to the words of the unjust judge.
7
GYZ
A ba̱ Nya a pa̱li ma̱jwe ta̱ botlsi wu hwa wul jwe sa̱ na̱ma ngemti gwas wu na̱k ɗe sa̱ na̱ma ngemti gwasi na̱ ka̱ cin na̱ ka̱ gas wu sa? Ka̱ yeni go ta ba̱lsi ilgwe sa̱ lami wu ba̱le sa?
BSB
BSB:
Will not God bring about justice for His elect who cry out to Him day and night? Will He delay in helping them?
8
GYZ
A ni kii ma hwiti ɗe ta ba̱lsi ilgwe sa̱ na̱ma ngemti gwas wu ba̱le-ba̱le. Ama kume ami Yen ga̱ Mbala̱n pal sut ten dii atl wugo, ba ya mbi ma̱n za̱t mbadl tena̱n ma?>>
BSB
BSB:
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
GYZ
Yek Yesu po hwi cinga̱lti ga̱ɓa ma̱jwe palli gaa gwasa̱n ɗe ma̱n pa̱lti zok wul yek sa̱ mbul mas naa mbala̱n wu,
BSB
BSB:
To some who trusted in their own righteousness and viewed others with contempt, He also told this parable:
10
GYZ
yek ta̱ wulsi ɗe, <<Ma̱jon ɗe lop te ka̱lu lubii ga̱ Nya ta̱s ngemti Nya. Gon wo ba Paresi a gon wo ma̱n kanti wulpi boo.
BSB
BSB:
“Two men went up to the temple to pray. One was a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.
11
GYZ
Yek ba Paresi wu tlinya ta̱s ngemi Nya gaa gwasi yek ta̱ wule, <Nya a pa̱l hwol tuki na̱k ɗe ami wo ba̱ na̱k ma̱jwe asa̱ te mbala̱n ga̱zi, asa̱ pa̱l byas wul, asa̱ kop modli wu ka̱n ani so. A ba̱ na̱k ma̱n kanti wulpi boo ga̱ tekgu ka̱n ani so.
BSB
BSB:
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
GYZ
Aa kul pa̱l ka̱lka̱ze asa̱mi ɗe lop ka̱ multi ɗe nitgi, aa ba̱l ɗe na̱m ka̱ kutl ga̱ mas ilgwe ni ɗa̱ wu.>
BSB
BSB:
I fast twice a week and pay tithes of all that I acquire.’
13
GYZ
<<Yek ma̱n kanti wulpi boo wu dla̱l te dlenti ka, yek ta̱ kin gaa gwas giɓi, yek ta̱ zi ang gwas ten ngetli, yek ta̱ wule, <Nya, yen gonti gini, ami wo ma̱n pa̱lti byas wul ka̱n.> >>
BSB
BSB:
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
GYZ
Yek Yesu wule, <<A ni kii ma hwiti, ma̱n kanti wulpi boo wu li ga̱s na̱ zok mbadli na̱k ɗe Nya taas byas wul jwas ka̱wu, ba̱ na̱k ga̱ ba Paresi wu so, na̱k ɗe mas ma̱lgwe nalli gaa gwas go sa nalla̱t so, ama ma̱lgwe nalli gaa gwas sogo, sa nalla̱ti.>>
BSB
BSB:
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
GYZ
Yek ma̱jon tulli mil jwasa̱n mal Yesu ta̱s wutisi ang gaa ata̱ ngemisi Nya. Yek ma̱n kopti jwas yeni nu wugo yek sa̱ matlsi.
BSB
BSB:
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
GYZ
Ama yek Yesu mbe mil mbala̱mi tet malti yek ta̱ wule, <<Zaka̱n mil mbala̱n ta̱s li tet mala̱nni, ba̱k mbola̱nsi so, na̱k ɗe Nya ka̱ɗe guu ga̱ mbala̱n ma̱n wunda̱l mbadl gwasa̱n wu.>>
BSB
BSB:
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
GYZ
Yek Yesu wulsi ɗe, <<A ni kii ma hwit gem ɗe mas ma̱lgwe kan Nya ɗe guu ka̱ mbadl gwas na̱k ga̱ yen mbala̱n sogo Nya a da̱n ɗe guu gwas so.>>
BSB
BSB:
Truly I tell you, anyone who does not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”
18
GYZ
Yek bali ga̱ ma̱n Yehuda gon wul Yesu ɗe, <<Hwa ma̱n lishti, yek nii ngetli ɗe ta pa̱li a mbi Nya boo ye?>>
BSB
BSB:
Then a certain ruler asked Him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”
19
GYZ
Yek Yesu wulti ɗe, <<Yek laki yek ka̱ mbe ɗe <hwaɓi> ye? Ma̱lgon ni hwaɓi so se Nya.
BSB
BSB:
“Why do you call Me good?”
Jesus replied.
“No one is good except God alone.
20
GYZ
Ka̱ yis ilgwe mba̱t ga̱ Musa dla̱m wu ɗe, <Ba̱k kop modli so, a ba̱k tlo ma̱lgon so, a ba̱k pi muka̱l so, a ba̱k sheli lal ma̱lgon gaa so. A ka̱ ba̱l nalti aba gwa suk ana gwa.> >>
BSB
BSB:
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
GYZ
Yek ma̱li wule, <<Mas jo a koɓi wi aa yi nak'eni.>>
BSB
BSB:
“All these I have kept from my youth,” he said.
22
GYZ
Yek Yesu kumi nu wugo yek ta̱ wul ma̱li ɗe, <<Wul ɗe na̱m yii gwe ba̱ka̱ ɓo pa̱li sowu, yek ɗe, lak wul wul jwa ka mas aka̱ ba̱l wulpi ma̱jwe ba̱ ilgon nisi ɗa̱ sowu ta̱k mbi wul to nya ka̱ɗa, a paa ka̱ li te aka̱ koɓa̱nni.>>
BSB
BSB:
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
GYZ
Yek ta̱ kumi nu wugo yek mbadl liliti na̱k ɗe ti wo ma̱n wul ka̱n i'e wu.
BSB
BSB:
But when the ruler heard this, he became very sad, because he was extremely wealthy.
24
GYZ
Yesu yeni ɗe mbadl lili ma̱li wugo yek ta̱ wule, <<A bomi ta̱ ma̱n wul kan Nya ɗe guu ka̱ mbadl gwasa̱n.
BSB
BSB:
Seeing the man’s sadness, Jesus said,
“How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!
25
GYZ
Ma̱n wul a man kanti ga̱ Nya ɗe guu ka̱ mbadl gwasa̱n so na̱k kangwe a bomi rakumi gaa ta̱s te ka̱ shu alipla wu.>>
BSB
BSB:
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
GYZ
Mbala̱n kumi nu wugo yek sa̱ ngem Yesu ɗe, <<Kume nu ka̱n ni go wok Nya kisti wo?>>
BSB
BSB:
Those who heard this asked, “Who then can be saved?”
27
GYZ
Yek Yesu wulsi ɗe, <<Ilgwe man ngetl ga̱ mbala̱n go mal Nya wo man pa̱t ka̱n.>>
BSB
BSB:
But Jesus said,
“What is impossible with man is possible with God.”
28
GYZ
Yek Biturus wulti ɗe, <<Yekgu ma̱ zak wul jina̱n wi mas yek ma̱ kopki.>>
BSB
BSB:
“Look,” said Peter, “we have left all we had to follow You.”
29
GYZ
Yek Yesu wule, <<A yisi nu yek laki yek a ni kii ma hwit gem ɗe, mas ma̱lgwe zak lubii suk kili suk yilkeni suk ma̱n za̱t jwasi suk mil jwasi ten kanti ga̱ Nya ɗe guu ka̱ mbadl gwas go,
BSB
BSB:
“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

BSB
BSB:
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

They will flog Him and kill Him, and on the third day He will rise again.”
34

Ama yek ba̱sa̱ yis ilgwe ta̱ nisi ma hwiti wu so. Sa̱ hwuda̱lisi ga̱ɓe ka yek laki ɗe ba̱sa̱ yis gaami sowu.
BSB
BSB:
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.
