Matthew 15 (HWO)

1Tǝrgha fingya Farisaya tǝ famalǝmngya ngyakhrha thliigha ɓa a Urshalima tsahang mee nda Yeeso,Then some Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked,

2“Kama na fatsahayiwa hwasang ǝntin shingginǝm? Mba nda tsaɓang haryi ndan ɗǝ a hǝb ǝnnarhami nda wa!”“Why do Your disciples break the tradition of the elders? They do not wash their hands before they eat.”

3Nggǝrangga Yeeso kanda sǝ, “Kama nun hwasang nda ǝngya ndaana Faara ka ǝntinggi nun?Jesus replied, “And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your tradition?

4Ƙǝsǝr ndagha Faara, ‘Fǝrang mamnggirha nda muwa tǝ tsu’ tǝ ƙǝm ‘Kala niifa sargha man nduwa chin tǝtani a ɓǝlang ngganda.’For God said, ‘Honor your father and mother’ and ‘Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.’

5Amma nun tsaharha ha tǝ ndaarha ana ˈya sǝ a haar niifa na a ɗanggǝn chin sǝ nduwa man, nǝn ndaarha ‘ˈya nun a kya waala a fanna ɗǝfang ɗi ndǝn Faara ɗǝ.’But you say that if anyone says to his father or mother, ‘Whatever you would have received from me is a gift devoted to God,’

6Ahu kwamana kiya Mǝmǝlwa a fǝrang mamnggirha nǝn fa nggǝtyighǝn tǝghǝn wa. Nanǝn kee kar laɓar ɗanun fa ndaana Faara ka ǝntin nun.he need not honor his father or mother with it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition.

7Kun fathǝrɓuya! Laɓar Faara ndaana Ishaya aten nun mǝmǝlni:You hypocrites! Isaiah prophesied correctly about you:

8‘Nafiniya ahu mii ndan ni kee na nda fǝre mamnggirha, amma huryi ndan nǝghǝn inggun ma nggi;‘These people honor Me with their lips, but their hearts are far from Me.

9ka ni kee na nda ɗǝfee shilee teena, ƙǝsǝr ɗǝfang ngganda tsahad ngyakhkya fiya ha a mbee a meyed laɓar Faara.’ ”They worship Me in vain; they teach as doctrine the precepts of men.’”

10Tǝrgha aagha Yeeso nafini wumngga hai a thlǝmadghǝn ɓa ndǝghǝn, “Keema thlǝmaarha fa tǝnun sǝn ǝnɗi niya thlǝkrha.Jesus called the crowd to Him and said, “Listen and understand.

11ˈYa kyagha hur niifa hai mbǝ ndǝna tsawang tǝ ‘paarha’ fa wa, amma ƙǝl ˈya na a kyarha ɓa a miighǝn ndǝna tsawang tǝ ‘paarha’ fa.”A man is not defiled by what enters his mouth, but by what comes out of it.”

12Tǝrgha fatsahayini ɓa nda thlǝmadghǝn ɓa tsahang mee nda, “Sǝnna sǝ sǝb hur Farisayina ɗǝ sǝk nanda laɓarɗi?”Then the disciples came to Him and said, “Are You aware that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this?”

13Nggǝrangga Yeeso kanda sǝ, “Kala hǝfrha a mbǝ pǝpa na a talara hǝfgha ndǝn wa, na nda a ƙǝɗang ɗǝ tǝ thlarghǝn.But Jesus replied, “Every plant that My heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by its roots.

14Malaman kanda. Na nda ƙǝla mangya kwamaya na nda a ƙǝs sǝsal kwamaya. Ana kwamarha a ƙǝs sǝsal kwamarha, kanda kyab na nda a mukrha hu kwaarha hai.”Disregard them! They are blind guides. If a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.”

15Ndangga Mbiturus Yeeso, “Pǝrang ten karapuɗi kan ya.”Peter said to Him, “Explain this parable to us.”

16Tsahangga Yeeso mee kanda, “Ɓal wun kula sǝnang hai wa?“Do you still not understand?” Jesus asked.

17Kala ˈya ǝnana niifa mii nǝn kyarha hurghǝn ɗǝ nggǝrghǝn kyarha sǝ a fadghǝn.“Do you not yet realize that whatever enters the mouth goes into the stomach and then is eliminated?

18Amma ǝnɗi na a kyarha ɓa ahu mee, kyaghǝn sǝ ahur niifa. Ndǝghǝnni na tsawang nda niifa tǝ ‘paarha’ fa.But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these things defile a man.

19Ƙǝsǝr ahur niifa sǝ ndǝna numad mbǝlfeerha kyarha ɓa, tǝ ɓǝl farha, tǝ kulafayirha, tǝ pateyirha, tǝ ngaara, tǝ ƙǝnang paama nggaɓaarha mu tǝ sǝb thlǝma.For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, and slander.

20Əngginiya ndǝna tsawang niifa tǝ paarha fa a mbed Faara, amma hǝb ǝnnarhami kula tsab haara mbǝ ndǝna tsawang niifa tǝ paarha fa a mbed Faara wa.”These are what defile a man, but eating with unwashed hands does not defile him.”

21Tǝrgha Malgha Yeeso Nggalili ɗǝgha hu chehweed Taya ɗǝ tǝ Sidon.Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the district of Tyre and Sidon.

22Na nuneefa sǝ tǝ Kanˈana ɓagha thlǝmadghǝn ɓa hwanggǝnǝn, “A haɗoyi fa Chinǝm, Wan Ndauda, ƙǝsǝr wutarad na nǝghǝn tǝ ǝnkaheerha fa nǝn naarha sǝsang nda kaan.”And a Canaanite woman from that region came to Him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is miserably possessed by a demon.”

23Amma nggǝrang ngwa Yeeso sǝ wa. Tǝrgha ndangga fatsahayighǝn, “Ndang a wiigha, nǝghǝn a ɓilla ƙǝm tǝ hwanda.”But Jesus did not answer a word. So His disciples came and urged Him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.”

24Nggǝrgha Yeeso sǝ, “Thlǝnna nda nggi ɓa ka ɓi ɗang nda chauraya Isǝreela sǝ sahadgha kee.”He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”

25Ɓagha nuɗa ɓa ɓǝrgha hai a mbedghǝn nggǝrghǝn hwanggǝn, “Chinǝm ɗeesǝ!”The woman came and knelt before Him. “Lord, help me!” she said.

26Nggǝrgha Yeeso sǝ, “Kamngwa tǝranggǝm ǝnnadmid wundakhnaya fǝranggǝnǝm wuɗaya wa.”But Jesus replied, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.”

27Nggǝrangga nuɗa sǝ, “Ƙǝkafek ni Chinǝm, amma ko wuɗaya ni na nda hǝb fǝfǝsǝrra ǝnnarhami hǝrgha hai a mbǝd ɗauyad turi ndan.”“Yes, Lord,” she said, “even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.”

28Tǝrgha nggǝrangga Yeeso sǝ, “Sa nuneefa na fǝrƙǝkafekkid wa manggǝn kaan, ˈya na midwa wal nan.” Tsu kee ƙǝngga wutaradɗi keeghǝn.“O woman,” Jesus answered, “your faith is great! Let it be done for you as you desire.” And her daughter was healed from that very hour.

29Malgha Yeeso mbǝɗi ɗǝgha wuri aam Nggalili ɗǝ tǝrgha wumnda sǝ tsauka hai.Moving on from there, Jesus went along the Sea of Galilee. Then He went up on a mountain and sat down.

30Wumngga fiya thlǝmadghǝn ɓa hangga. Ɓa nda ɓa tǝ sǝfǝngya, tǝ kwamaya, tǝ fingya mǝrna fandan hai, tǝ fingya mbuwa mbang kaala sǝ tǝ fingya haaya hangga. Ɗǝfang ngganda kanda hai a mbed Yeeso, ƙǝnanggǝn kanda heu.Large crowds came to Him, bringing the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute, and many others, and laid them at His feet, and He healed them.

31Ƙǝsangga ǝnwulteena fiya wumngga hai na nanda fingyayini mbuwa mbang kaala sǝ kanda a kaala sǝ, fingya mǝrna fandan hai wal nda ƙǝnda, sǝfǝngya a wiirha hai tǝ ƙǝm kwamaya a na maana hai. Na nda a fal Faara yi Isǝreela.The crowd was amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled restored, the lame walking, and the blind seeing. And they glorified the God of Israel.

32Tǝrgha aagha Yeeso fatsahayighǝn ɓa ndanggǝn kanda, “Na nafini a haɗee fa ya. Ɓeena mahan kanda a thlǝmadna a mbǝɗiya, tahang ngwa ˈya kanda ha na a ǝna nda mii wa. Mbǝ minna sǝ kal kanda ni hai wii nda wureɗǝ a miirha wa, asǝmha ɗǝgha shiwid kanda teena a kwamana.”Then Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, “I have compassion for this crowd, because they have already been with Me three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may faint along the way.”

33Nggǝrangga fatsahayighǝn sǝ, “A yanggi ɗǝnǝm wal mburodi ɓa a kahedɗi ya na a tsǝghanggǝn fiya hangga kiya?”The disciples replied, “Where in this desolate place could we find enough bread to feed such a large crowd?”

34Tsahangga Yeeso mee kanda, “Mburodi kurmi ni a har nun?” Ndang ngganda, “Mǝd tǝ tǝngya na miɗiɗi ngguchit.”“How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked. “Seven,” they replied, “and a few small fish.”

35Ndangga Yeeso fiya wumngga hai a tsawa nda hai a hweeɗe.And He instructed the crowd to sit down on the ground.

36Tǝrgha haranggǝn mburodi yina sǝ mǝd tǝ tǝnggini, usa nǝn Faara, kyanggǝn hai kutelth-kutelth. Fǝranggǝnǝn fatsahayighǝn ndǝghang nggǝnda fiya ɗǝ.Taking the seven loaves and the fish, He gave thanks and broke them. Then He gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.

37Kanda heu kii nda nggaala nda. Wumangga fatsahayini katǝbghǝn kutasya mǝd.They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.

38Nafiya hǝbgha ǝnnadɗami hǝshya haru kumnggit faɗa kula thlǝɗang nda nishya tǝ wundakhnaya.A total of four thousand men were fed, besides women and children.

39Akwasamadɗi kalna Yeeso fiya hai, kyagha ahu kombuwol hai ɗǝgha chehweed Manggadan ɗǝ.After Jesus had dismissed the crowds, He got into the boat and went to the region of Magadan.
