A lu tre ni tre ni bawu nitu duba ta bre Irji chachu nda na tie suu na.
BSB
BSB:
Then Jesus told them a parable about their need to pray at all times and not lose heart:
2
JID
A hla ndi “Ni gbu ri, ndji wu han tre njanji ri a he wandi ana tie sissri Irji na, dana toh ndji ngame ni nfutu na.
BSB
BSB:
“In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected men.
3

Niki, iwari wu s'ro ri ason ni gbu'a ngame. A ta hi ni ndji wu han tre njanji chachu nda bre ndi, “Zome kpa ikrji mu niwo bi yo me ni shishi.
BSB
BSB:
And there was a widow in that town who kept appealing to him, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’
4
JID
A ban nton gbaa me ndana son zo na. A son ni vi ntor ri nda rhimre kikima, nda hla ni tuma ndi, “Mina ti sissri Irji na, nina ya ndji ni nfutu ngame na.

For a while he refused, but later he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect men,
5
JID
Nitu du iwayi na nne iya ni ye bre ma chachu na, Mi zo u kpa njanji ikrji ma nduna lo me kpa ni yema na.
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
JID
I Bachi a tre ndi “wo tre andi ndji wa ana han tre njanji na a hla.
BSB
BSB:
And the Lord said,
“Listen to the words of the unjust judge.
7
JID
Zizan Irji ngame na nji njanji ye ni bi wa a chu ba, ndani yi yo'u chachu ni Irji mba ni chu na? Ani tie sesren ye gbagbla ni ba?
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
JID
Mi hla yiwu ndi, ani ye ni njanji ni bawu gbagbla. Nikima vren ndji nita ye, ani ye toh nime ni gbungblu meme?
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
JID
Me a lu tre toh choloncho ni bari wandi ba yo suron ni gbengblen mba, ndi ba zren tsatsra ndani ya bari grji tu,
BSB
BSB:
To some who trusted in their own righteousness and viewed others with contempt, He also told this parable:
10
JID
Ndji ha ba hon hi ni tra Irji nda hi bre, iri ana Farasi, i rhima bi kpa iban.
BSB
BSB:
“Two men went up to the temple to pray. One was a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.
11
JID
Farasi a lu kri ni zande nda bre ni tuma ndi, 'Irji, mi ngyiri nitu mina he to ndji bari na - bi y'bi, bi lahtre, bi humba, ba bi kpa ban too ndi yi.
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
JID
Mi zu kpa mu rhi biri nkpu ha ni sati. Mi nu zakka (iri nimi wlon) nitu wawu kpi ndi a ri nime.'
BSB
BSB:
I fast twice a week and pay tithes of all that I acquire.’
13
JID
Ndji wu kpa ban'a a kri gbagban nda na nzu shishi hi ni shu mena, wru wo ni san nda tre ndi, “Irji, ya me ni lo suron, ndji wu lahtre.”
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
JID
Mi hla yiwu, igu hi a kma hi kpama ni si suron zan ndi rima'a, nitu ndji wandi a nzu tuma hi shu, ba gbron grji, i wandi a ban tuma grji (nitu ana kpe na) ba nzu hi shu.”
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
JID
Ndji ba basi'a nji mri tsitsa ni du sa wo ni tu mba, i mri koh bi nduma ba to ba nda puaha tre.

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
JID
I Yesu a yo ba ye ni kpama nda tre ndi, “Du mri bi tsitsa ba ye nime, na zu ba na. Ikoh Irji ni shulu a wu biwa ba he to mba.
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
JID
Tre njanji, ndji wa na kpa ikoh Irji to mri bi tsitsa na, ana ri mi na.
BSB
BSB:
Truly I tell you, anyone who does not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”
18
JID
I chu mba ri a mye ndi, “Ticha ndindi, mi tie ngye ri ni kpa ko Irji?”
BSB
BSB:
Then a certain ruler asked Him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”
19
JID
Yesu a hal wu ndi, “Nitu ngye wu yome ndji ndindi? Ndrjo na ndindi na se Irji kankle ma.
BSB
BSB:
“Why do you call Me good?”
Jesus replied.
“No one is good except God alone.
20
JID
Bi toh doka Irji na tie nka na, na wu ndji na, na y'bi na, na nu sheda che na, wo tre time mba yime.”
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

BSB:
“All these I have kept from my youth,” he said.
22
JID
Yesu a woo nda tre ndi ikpe riri rhi don, hi le ni kpi wandi wu he niwu ni gah ni bi ya, i wu he ni lada ni shulu, ni ye huma.”
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
JID
Ni wa ichu a wo tre, a loh suron kpukpome, nitu ana ndji wu wo.
BSB
BSB:
But when the ruler heard this, he became very sad, because he was extremely wealthy.
24

Ni wa Yesu a toh kma ti gbon me ni lo suron (gbugbu chiche tre vunvu ni Greek ba sa tu tre ndi a kma ta lo suron/ama gbugbu bari bana he ni lan kima na), a tre ndi, “Ani he ni du du ndi wu wo du rhi ni koh Irji.
BSB
BSB:
Seeing the man’s sadness, Jesus said,
“How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!
25
JID
A he ni du ni ndi wu wo du ri ni koh Irji, zan du ra kumi ri zu ni shishi n'ro.”
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
JID
Bi wa basi'a wa'a ba tre ndji. “I nha ni nawo?”
BSB
BSB:
Those who heard this asked, “Who then can be saved?”

BSB:
But Jesus said,
“What is impossible with man is possible with God.”
