Matthew 21 (HWO)

1Na Yeeso tǝ fatsahayighǝn a takh ndusang Urshalima fa, ɓa nda hu tala ɓa na nda aarha Mbetafaji ahu Wumngya ɗǝfya Dzaitun. Thlǝngga Yeeso fatsahayighǝn sǝri a ˈwa nda mbeeɗǝ.As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent out two disciples,

2Ndanggǝn kanda, “Ɗama hu talɗa ɗǝ na a mbǝɗi taarha, a kyaɗun sa hai, nun awal kwaara ƙǝƙǝna hai tǝ wanggǝn a thlǝmadghǝn. Kwasaman kanda hai mbee kanda nun ɓa.saying to them, “Go into the village ahead of you, and at once you will find a donkey tied there, with her colt beside her. Untie them and bring them to Me.

3A tsahang niifa mee kun, ndaman kee, ‘Na mid Chinǝm sǝ kanda,’ tsu a mbǝɗi kee nǝn a malang kun ɗun ɗǝ tǝ kanda.”If anyone questions you, tell him that the Lord needs them, and he will send them right away.”

4Katǝrana ǝnɗa haya ka lǝɗang ngganda ˈya ndaana annabi:This took place to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet:

5“Ndang nafiya Urshalima, ‘Kulo, Kutǝr nun ɓayi thlǝmannun ɓa. Niifa ni mbuwana tenggǝn kakrak ɓayi a ƙǝsǝr kwaara, Nǝghǝn ɓayi a ƙǝsǝr wan kwaara.’”“Say to the Daughter of Zion, ‘See, your King comes to you, gentle and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.’”

6Ɗǝgha fatsahayina ɗǝ ǝna nda kǝla ndangna Yeeso kanda.So the disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them.

7Ɓang kwarɗa nda ɓa tǝ wan kwarɗi, lǝlǝɓang ngganda lukki ndan a ƙǝsǝr wan kwarɗa sǝ tsauka atenggǝn.They brought the donkey and the colt and laid their cloaks on them, and Jesus sat on them.

8Lǝlǝɓangga fiya lukki ndan hai aten kwamana a mbedghǝn, fingya kǝm kyalth shiiya nda ɓa lǝlǝɓang ngganda a tǝn kwamana.A massive crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road.

9Nafiya ˈwagha mbeeɗǝ ma ndǝghǝn tǝ fingya na mbusamadghǝn tǝrang ngganda urayi ndan sǝ, kanda ndaarha: “Faala a tsauka aten Wan Ndauda! Parka tsauɗǝ aten, niifɗi na ɓayi ahu thlǝm Chinǝm! Falama Faara na manggǝn a talara!”The crowds that went ahead of Him and those that followed were shouting: “Hosanna to the Son of David!” “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Hosanna in the highest!”

10Kyana Yeeso a Urshalima hai, wupǝri ɗi kahad wulangga teena kanda, na nda tsakh miiya tǝ ndaarha “Wunni ya?”When Jesus had entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred and asked, “Who is this?”

11Nggǝmangga nafini, “Yeeso ni, annabi ɗi ɓagha ɓa a Nadzarat na a Nggalili.”The crowds replied, “This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth in Galilee.”

12Kyagha Yeeso Kǝn Faara ɗǝ na Urshalima katǝranggǝn rǝghang nda nafiya ɗǝ na a hiirha tǝ hǝng nda maɓiya ɗǝ ka sataka. Changgǝlanggǝn tebǝrya fa mbeɗed wuɗǝɓǝlya ɗǝ tǝ kulohod fingya na a heng kataprakkya ɗǝ.Then Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those selling doves.

13Ndanggǝn kanda, “Ndagha ɗeleewar Faara, ‘Kǝnna nǝm aaghǝn Kǝn hwanda Faara,’ Amma tsawanggun mbǝd ɓǝɓed ngaarya!”And He declared to them, “It is written: ‘My house will be called a house of prayer.’ But you are making it ‘a den of robbers.’”

14Ɓagha kwamaya ɓa tǝ sǝfǝngya a thlǝmadghǝn ɓa ahu Kǝn Faara, ƙǝnanggǝn kanda.The blind and the lame came to Him at the temple, and He healed them.

15Amma nana mamngya firistaya tǝ famalǝmngya ngyakhrha Musa ǝnwultenggini ǝnanǝn, wundakhnaya ma kanda a huhwarha a pǝpal Ƙǝn Faara kanda ndaarha, “Faala tsauɗǝ aten Wan Ndauda.” Amma mamnggini sǝbgha hur ndan ɗǝ.But the chief priests and scribes were indignant when they saw the wonders He performed and the children shouting in the temple courts, “Hosanna to the Son of David!”

16Tsahang mee nda Yeeso, “Sǝkna ǝnɗi na wanggini ndaarha ya wa?” Nggǝmangga Yeeso, “Hǝng, ˈWawa nun karatang nda ɗeleewar Faara wa? Ƙǝsǝr ndagha nda, ‘Tsahang ɗun wundakhnaya ha tǝ wufar waya, ka a fal kun nda.’ ”“Do You hear what these children are saying?” they asked. “Yes,” Jesus answered. “Have you never read: ‘From the mouths of children and infants You have ordained praise’?”

17A mbǝɗi kee mal kanda nǝn wudgha Mbetani ɗǝ mǝngga hai a mbǝɗi.Then He left them and went out of the city to Bethany, where He spent the night.

18Ɗalthna mbǝrha hai nanǝn a wutta Urshelima ɗǝ, ƙǝsgha miirha ndǝn.In the morning, as Jesus was returning to the city, He was hungry.

19Na shiɓarha nǝn a ƙǝlar kwamana, ɗǝgha thlǝmadghen ɗǝ kǝlagha hai ko wee a uradghǝn kǝl shiiya kee. Tǝrgha ndanggǝn shiɓadɗi, “Ma nggǝrna tam nggǝtta ɓalwa!” Tsu kee hwargha ɗǝfǝdɗa ɗǝ.Seeing a fig tree by the road, He went up to it but found nothing on it except leaves. “May you never bear fruit again!” He said. And immediately the tree withered.

20Nana fatsahayighǝn ǝnɗi katǝragha hai, ƙǝsgha ǝnwulteena kanda kaan, ndanda, “Ƙǝƙǝn hwarna shiɓadɗa ɗǝ ƙǝkar kee ya?”When the disciples saw this, they marveled and asked, “How did the fig tree wither so quickly?”

21Tǝrgha ndangga Yeeso kanda, “Niya pǝrang kǝkafek kun, anaɗun tǝ fǝrƙǝkafek fa ngaalanggun alten nun wa, nun a ǝna ǝngya kǝla yanɗiya, nduwa kalgha yanɗamu ya. Nun mbang ndang nda wumndǝɗi ya, ‘Thliusǝ muwana hu wuri aamɗa ɗǝ ya,’ nǝn a katǝrarha hai kee.“Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “if you have faith and do not doubt, not only will you do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ it will happen.

22Nun hwanang Faara kala ˈya na minnun, a fǝrɗun kǝkafek, nun walghǝn.”If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.”

23Wudna Yeeso ahu Ƙǝn Faara ɗǝ na a Urshelima katǝranggǝn tsaharhaha, Mamnda Firistayini tǝ shingya nafini ɓanda thlǝmadghǝn ɓa. Tsahang mee nda, “Tǝ sǝsǝmnda wun na ǝna ǝnggini hǝu ya? Wun fǝrowa sǝsǝmndǝɗi ya?”When Jesus returned to the temple courts and began to teach, the chief priests and elders of the people came up to Him. “By what authority are You doing these things?” they asked. “And who gave You this authority?”

24Nggǝmangga Yeeso kanda, “Niya tsahang mee kun ha tal. A nggǝreeɗun sǝ, niya pǝranggǝn kun tǝ wun fǝreegha Sǝsǝmnda niya ǝna ǝngginiya.“I will also ask you one question,” Jesus replied, “and if you answer Me, I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things.

25Wun fǝrangga kwamana Yahaya ǝna mbaptisǝma nǝn? Faara fǝrangga wa, nduwa fiya wa?” Tǝrgha thliigha ngaala sǝ a pathlang ndan, ndaa nda, “A ndaa ɗǝm, ‘Faara fǝrangga,’ nǝn a tsakh mee, ‘Kama fǝrwa nun ƙǝkafek tǝghǝn?’”What was the source of John’s baptism? Was it from heaven or from men?” They deliberated among themselves and said, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will ask, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’

26“Amma a ndaɗǝm, ‘Fiya fǝrangga,’ nǝm a tǝrǝm fiya, ƙǝsǝr fǝr nda ƙǝkafek Yahaya annabi ni.”But if we say, ‘From men,’ we are afraid of the people, for they all regard John as a prophet.”

27A kwasamadghǝn nggǝrang ngganda sǝ, “Sǝngwan wa.” Tǝrgha ndanggǝn kanda, “Nggi ƙǝm mbi pǝranggǝn kun wun fǝreegha sǝsǝmnda niya ǝna ǝnggini ya wa.”So they answered, “We do not know.” And Jesus replied, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.

28“Amma ma numa nun? Na niifa sǝ tǝ wundǝlayighǝn sǝri, ɗǝgha thlǝmad tǝ pamǝnda ɗǝ ndanggǝn, ‘Waana, a weeriya ɗǝwa ɗǝ ɗa ǝna taara ahu hed inabi.’But what do you think? There was a man who had two sons. He went to the first one and said, ‘Son, go and work today in the vineyard.’

29Tǝrgha ndagha wundǝladɗi, ‘Mbi ɗǝrha ɗǝ wa,’ amma numagha ɗǝgha ɗǝ.‘I will not,’ he replied. But later he changed his mind and went.

30Tǝrgha chin ɗǝgha thlǝmad tahad wundǝlad ɗaɗǝ ndanggǝn, ‘sa ɗǝwa ɗǝ,’ ndagha wundǝladɗi, ‘hǝng pǝpa, niya ɗǝrha ɗǝ.’ Amma ɗǝwa ɗǝ wa.”Then the man went to the second son and told him the same thing. ‘I will, sir,’ he said. But he did not go.

31“A hur ndan na sǝri ya yanggi ǝnagha ˈya na mid chin?” Nggǝra nda sǝ, “Yanɗi ˈwanǝn thlǝnda.” Ndangga Yeeso kanda, “Niya pǝrang kǝkafek kun, fathlǝ tsamngya tǝ susuwaya nanda ˈwarha hu kutǝryid Faara ɗǝ ma kun.”Which of the two did the will of his father?” “The first,” they answered. Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God before you.

32Ƙǝsǝr Yahaya tǝ Mbaptisǝma ɓaɗa ɓa kyaɗang ɗǝ kwamana kun na a tsawun ngga a mbed Faara, amma fǝr wun kǝkafek wa, amma fathlǝ tsamngya tǝ susuwaya fǝr nda kǝkafek tǝghǝn. Ko nanun ǝnggini a katǝrarha hai, karɗun fa fǝrƙǝkafek nun tǝghǝn. 21:32 Luka 3:12; 7:29-30.For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and prostitutes did. And even after you saw this, you did not repent and believe him.

33Nanǝnya kaaman thlǝmaarha asǝɗarha fa pak. Na niifa sǝ pagha wan ɗǝfya inabi, kanggǝn tǝ kalthmaana, ra mbǝd ˈyaɗa wan inabi nǝn ahurghǝn, nggǝrghǝn ra sǝfa na nzang na tǝƙǝla hedɗa ha a tsaurha a tenggǝn. Tǝrgha nzǝmang hed inabi ɗa nǝn fahuɗaya ha wii tala nǝn.Listen to another parable: There was a landowner who planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it, dug a winepress in it, and built a tower. Then he rented it out to some tenants and went away on a journey.

34Tsǝna shifirha hai, thlǝn mafayighǝn nǝn ɗa nda thlang yighǝn ǝnnarhami ɓa.When the harvest time drew near, he sent his servants to the tenants to collect his share of the fruit.

35Amma fa nzǝm heeyini kǝsang ngganda mafayini; ɗǝk tal nda, ɓǝlang ngganda tal, muk tahadghǝn nda tǝ ferya.But the tenants seized his servants. They beat one, killed another, and stoned a third.

36Tǝrgha nggǝrghǝn thlǝn fingya mafaya thlǝmad ndan ɗǝ, kalgha yanggini ˈwa nǝn thlǝn nda ɗǝ. Fa nzǝm hedɗi nggǝrgha nda ǝnang kanda kǝla yi ƙǝtǝm.Again, he sent other servants, more than the first group. But the tenants did the same to them.

37Akwasamadghǝn tǝ hedɗi thlǝn wan hurghǝn nǝn a thlǝman ndan ɗǝ nǝghǝn a numad ndaarha, “‘Mbǝ ngaala sǝ wa na nda fǝrang mamnggirha waana.’”Finally, he sent his son to them. ‘They will respect my son,’ he said.

38“Amma nana fa nzǝm heeyini wanɗi keeghǝn ɓayi, ndang ngganda ndan, ‘Yo, kulo tǝ har langaad hedɗi ɓayi ya. Taama ɓǝlanggǝm tǝnǝm har langaad hedɗi.’”But when the tenants saw the son, they said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and take his inheritance.’

39Tǝrgha ƙǝsang ngganda, kahang ngganda ƙǝsǝr kadɗa ɗǝ, ɓǝlang ngganda.So they seized him and threw him out of the vineyard and killed him.

40“A ɓad tǝ hedɗa ɓa, ma nǝn ǝnang nda fa nzǝm hedɗi?”Therefore, when the owner of the vineyard returns, what will he do to those tenants?”

41Mamngya fatakkwayini ndaa nda, “Nǝn a ɓǝlang fa mbǝlfeyini tǝ sǝsaarha na pǝɗaaghǝn, fǝrang hedɗa nǝn nafiya pak, na narha fǝrang yighǝn ǝnnarhami kala shifirha.”“He will bring those wretches to a wretched end,” they replied, “and will rent out the vineyard to other tenants who will give him his share of the fruit at harvest time.”

42Tǝrgha tsahangga Yeeso mee kanda, “ˈWawanun karatang nda ahu ɗeleewar Faara wa? Ndanǝn: ‘Ferɗi karna fa tǝngya, ndǝn tsaukwa ka feera. Yanɗiya ˈya ni ǝnana Chinǝm, ǝnwulteena ni a yid nǝm.’ ”Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the Scriptures: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone. This is from the Lord, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?

43“Tsaunǝn kee, niya ndang nda kun, na nda a thlang nda kutǝryid Faara a harnun, fǝrang nggǝnda chehweeya na fǝr wan ɗǝfya ngga.”Therefore I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people who will produce its fruit.

44Kala niifa mukka ten ferɗa hai, nǝn hwasarha fa ɓatal, ɓatal, amma yi mukna ferɗi tenggǝn hai nǝn a tsarang ɗǝ.He who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom it falls will be crushed.”

45Sǝkna mamngya firistayini tǝ Farisayini karapu ɗi, walang ngganda nǝn a thlǝk asǝɗadɗi aten ndan kanda ni fahuɗayini na tǝ mbǝlfedɗa fa.When the chief priests and Pharisees heard His parables, they knew that Jesus was speaking about them.

46Na mid ndan sǝ a kǝsang ngganda, amma kanda tǝrǝm fiya wumngga hai, ƙǝsǝr na fiya a ndaarha annabi ni.Although they wanted to arrest Him, they were afraid of the crowds, because the people regarded Him as a prophet.
