Matthew 14 (HWO)

1A sayidɗi Sǝkna Hirdus Kutǝr chehweed Nggalili laɓar Yeeso,At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the reports about Jesus

2ndanggǝn fataryighǝn, “Yahaya Tǝbaptisǝma ni ya thliigha sǝ hu mǝrra! Ndǝn nanǝn tǝ sǝsǝmnda ǝna ǝnwultenggini ya.”and said to his servants, “This is John the Baptist; he has risen from the dead! That is why miraculous powers are at work in him.”

3Nanǝnya Hirdus ˈwaɗǝ teena ƙǝsang ɗǝ Yahaya, ƙǝnanggǝn, muwanggǝn hu porsǝna ɗǝ ka Herodiya nu wanman Filibus kahang nǝn.Now Herod had arrested John and bound him and put him in prison on account of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife,

4Ƙǝsǝr Yahaya nǝn naarha ndang nda Hirdus ahu ngyakhrha Yahudaya kamngwa a kahanggǝn Herodiya wa.because John had been telling him, “It is not lawful for you to have her.”

5Na mid Hirdus sǝ a ɓǝlanggǝn Yahaya, amma nǝghǝn a tǝrǝm fiya, ƙǝsǝr fiya heu fǝr nda kǝkafek tǝ ndaarha Yahaya Annabi ni.Although Herod wanted to kill John, he was afraid of the people, because they regarded John as a prophet.

6Amma a far wutsǝfayid lǝghǝtta ɓen nggǝtta Hirdus, wutarad Herodiya rǝɓanggǝn kanda sǝ, mbǝnanggǝn Hirdus kaan.On Herod’s birthday, however, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod

7Nggǝmɗa fa har tǝ aah thlǝm Faara, kala ˈya na midghǝn nǝn a fǝranggǝn.so much that he promised with an oath to give to her whatever she asked.

8Ndangga man wutaradɗi ɗǝgha ndaarha, “Ten Yahaya Tǝbaptisǝma na minna ahu pǝlee.”Prompted by her mother, she said, “Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist.”

9Kutǝrɗi ƙǝm ǝna masǝnɗi kee nǝn aten ˈya ndanǝn, amma ƙǝsǝr ka thlǝm Faara aah nǝn a mbed nafiya mbunǝn ɓa, ǝnang ǝnɗa nda ndanǝn.The king was grieved, but because of his oaths and his guests, he ordered that her wish be granted

10Thlǝn sodjaya nǝn a kyathlang ngganda ten Yahaya ɓa ahu porsǝna.and sent to have John beheaded in the prison.

11Ɓang ten ɗa nda wutaradɗa ɓa ahu pǝlee, ɗanggǝnǝn man ɗǝ.John’s head was brought in on a platter and presented to the girl, who carried it to her mother.

12Tsǝɓaku ɓagha fatsahaya Yahaya ɓa tǝrang ngganda mǝrrǝghǝn ɓa pang ngganda, tǝrgha ɗǝnda ɗǝ pǝranggǝn nda Yeeso.Then John’s disciples came and took his body and buried it. And they went and informed Jesus.

13Sǝkna Yeeso laɓarɗi, kyagha hu kombuwol hai, mal mbǝɗa nǝn ɗǝgha mbǝrha ɗǝ ka a tsauka katenggǝn. Amma sǝkna fiya mbǝɗi nanǝn sǝ, mbu samadghǝn nda tǝ saara ahu talya ɓa hangga.When Jesus heard about John, He withdrew by boat privately to a solitary place. But the crowds found out about it and followed Him on foot from the towns.

14Tǝrna Yeeso hai ahu kombuwol ɗi, na fiya nǝn hangga haɗangganda fa, ƙǝnanggǝn haya.When He stepped ashore and saw a large crowd, He had compassion on them and healed their sick.

15Na figrha a tsǝrha hai, ɓagha fa tsahayighǝn a thlǝmadghǝn ɓa, ndang ngganda, “Kaheerha ni ya tǝ kǝm tsǝ figrha hai, kalu fiya hai ɗǝnda hu talya ɗǝ, tǝna nda ɗǝ hii ǝnnarhami.”When evening came, the disciples came to Him and said, “This is a desolate place, and the hour is already late. Dismiss the crowds so they can go to the villages and buy themselves some food.”

16Amma nggǝrangga Yeeso kanda sǝ, “Kamngwa a wii nda a miirha wa, fǝraman ˈya kanda ǝna nda mii.”“They do not need to go away,” Jesus replied. “You give them something to eat.”

17Ndangga nda, “Mburodi tuf ni kee a harnan, tǝ tǝngya sǝri.”“We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered.

18Ndagha, “Ɓemadghǝn mbǝɗa ɓa ya.”“Bring them here to Me,” Jesus said.

19Tǝrgha ndanggǝn fiya tsawanda hai a ten hwaliirha, tǝranggǝn mburodi ɗa sǝ tuf tǝ tǝnggini sǝri, kǝlagha talara sǝ, ɗǝfang parka nǝn in. Kyanggǝn mburodi ɗa hai fǝranggǝnǝn fatsahayighǝn ndǝghang nggǝnda fiya.And He directed the crowds to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, He spoke a blessing. Then He broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.

20Kii nda kanda heu kǝla na mindan pa tsǝghanggǝn kanda, tǝrgha fatsahayighǝn wumangga nda katǝbghǝn kutasya kumkap sǝri.They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.

21Hǝshya kiigha mburodi ɗi sǝl nda haru kumnggit tuf, thlǝɗang ngwa nda nishya tǝ wundakhnaya wa.About five thousand men were fed, besides women and children.

22Tsu a mbǝɗi kee, ndangga Yeeso fatsahayighǝn kya nda hu kombuwal hai tǝɗang ngganda wuri aama teena, ndǝghǝnggi ƙǝm ishgha hai kal fiya nǝn hai.Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to the other side, while He dismissed the crowds.

23A kwasamad ɗi kal nǝn fiya hai, tǝrgha wumnda sǝ katenggǝn ka a hwan Faara nǝn, tsǝgha figrha hai ndǝghǝn a mbǝɗi katenggǝn.After He had dismissed them, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. When evening came, He was there alone,

24Amma ahu sayidɗiya kombuwol ɗi inggun ma ƙǝkǝshɓanda, fatsahayini a habɓaarha tǝ ɓereurha tǝ kuɗufulla aama.but the boat was already far from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it.

25Takhna mbǝrha a ɗathla hai ɓagha Yeeso thlǝman ndan ɓa, a wiirha aten aama.During the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went out to them, walking on the sea.

26Nana fatsahayighǝn ndǝn a wiirha aten aamɗi tǝrma nda. Ka hǝreenga huhwa nda, tamngganda ndaarha mǝnda-mǝnda ni.When the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost!” they said, and cried out in fear.

27Amma tsu kee kalangga Yeeso kanda sǝ, “A tǝrǝm ɗun wa nggini ƙǝrsaama.”But Jesus spoke up at once: “Take courage! It is I. Do not be afraid.”

28Ndangga Siman, “Chinǝm, ana ƙǝkafek sani, ndee ɗi thlǝmad wa ɗǝ a aten aamɗi.”“Lord, if it is You,” Peter replied, “command me to come to You on the water.”

29Ndangga Yeeso, “Haˈi, ɓoɓa,” tǝrgha siman tǝrgha hai ahu kombuwal ɗi, ƙǝs wiirha nǝn aten aamɗi a thlǝmad Yeeso ɗǝ.“Come,” said Jesus. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water, and came toward Jesus.

30Amma nanǝn ɓereu ˈyaarɗi tǝrǝmngga, nagha a timnda hai, huhwagha ndagha, “Hǝrye Chinǝm.”But when he saw the strength of the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!”

31Tsu kee Ƙǝsgha Yeeso harghǝn ƙǝsanggǝn ɓa, ndangga Yeeso, “Ƙǝɗi fǝrƙǝkafekkid wa, ƙǝn fǝr waana ƙǝkafek na mbang wiirha aten aamɗi?”Immediately Jesus reached out His hand and took hold of Peter. “You of little faith,” He said, “why did you doubt?”

32Kyana nda ahu kombuwal hai, ishgha ɓereu ˈyaarɗi.And when they had climbed back into the boat, the wind died down.

33Tǝrgha fatsahayighǝn ɗǝfang shilee nda in, na nda a ndaarha, “Ƙǝkafek Wan Faarani Sa.”Then those who were in the boat worshiped Him, saying, “Truly You are the Son of God!”

34A kwasamadɗi tǝɗang na nda wuri aamɗi teena, tǝra nda hai a Djanasarat.When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret.

35Kukwalang na nafiya talɗa hai Yeeso ni, thlǝn farha nda ahu talya ɗǝ na ahu chehwedɗi kahat. Nagha fiya a ɓarha ɓa tǝ haaya, ka a ƙǝnanggǝn kanda.And when the men of that place recognized Jesus, they sent word to all the surrounding region. People brought all the sick to Him

36Hwanggǝnda a malanggǝn haaya tsuwar mii kotodghǝnda fa kee, kala niifa tsuwargha ndǝn fa ƙǝnɗǝ.and begged Him just to let them touch the fringe of His cloak. And all who touched Him were healed.
