Luke 24 (KHJ) · Opened

1Ni ititikywa awri etensara itee isati, ɛkǝri erere ka kpara ikang kǝni ɛnyɛ ʊnyang ududuma sini ekyeni okyo ka kpin ʊtira kyamo ɛkǝri owro ɔgrɔn.On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women came to the tomb, bringing the spices they had prepared.

2Aka darha eyin ʊtari ngɛ bo nuwo ɔgrɔn,They found the stone rolled away from the tomb,

3yip nisini arii idɔɔ ɔgrɔn, onoromo ʊkʊng Ete Iyesu.but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.

4Anayu ʊwɔrɔfo bi ikywi ʊmamen, ba kywakywa dang opyo orokru apari sini ɔsɔmi ʊʊma ufufuru sini ʊkʊ yana kǝni uyen ʊnʊng ni ko kuno atiting bi itʊngmɔ.While they were puzzling over this, suddenly two men in radiant apparel stood beside them.

5Ikpara dang ɛkǝri erere ka kʊng irung ngɛ nagang ko susuno akywimɔ ibʊng, yip ɛkǝri orokru kasani ɔmɔ ni,“Ikisi inyi kʊ pyerhe arʊ akrʊ bidɔɔ arʊ sini okpuimo?As the women bowed their faces to the ground in terror, the two men asked them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead?

6Asaa ngɛ ben! Akarha akyushinɛ! Inyi dirha imisini atany, bi ikpara sini eshishi kǝni enyi ngɛ bi Igalili:He is not here; He has risen! Remember how He told you while He was still in Galilee:

7‘Itɔɔyo ama ɔnɔ orokru ba avu arʊya, anu kpaa baya agara. Yip bi awri ʊmang taru anu shinɛ.’ ”‘The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.’”

8Ekpara dang aka dirha ni ʊring ngɛ.Then they remembered His words.

9Nisini ojuri bai owro ɔgrɔn, aka tana ɔnɔ ʊmɛr ngɛ atarhi ni eying kǝni ʊparha ɛshɛ arʊ kroo ngɛ kukum ʊring men.And when they returned from the tomb, they reported all these things to the Eleven and to all the others.

10Imeri arʊ kuno bai Imadala, Ijowana kǝni Imeri akwa Iyakubu adarha ʊparha ɛshɛ erere sini ani kǝni ɔmɔɔ. Ɔmɔmɔ atani ɔnɔ ʊmɛr ngɛ ʊring men.It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them who told this to the apostles.

11Yip ʊsang uyoromo ni imisini ɛkǝri erere peri, kii akʊng kǝni iring ukǝkǝe yoni.But their words seemed like nonsense to them, and they did not believe the women.

12Bi kǝna, Ibitrus kǝ shinɛ ni atara kya ɛkǝri owro ɔgrɔn. Oko kpukporo kǝ ten kidɔɔ ko rong uperi sini agǝrhi Iyesu ngɛ ʊyari bi itung, akywa dang oko juro kyaa ʊduna, asu wɔrɔfo asani ikimoyo isi.Peter, however, got up and ran to the tomb. And after bending down and seeing only the linen cloths, he went away, wondering to himself what had happened.

13Ba awri eying dang ɔnɔ ʊmɛr Iyesu apari aku kyeng kyamo opyo apyang sini ayirhi ʊtʊwa ni Imawus, amisini ikarha ngɛ kǝni Urushelima ini kekyaa ʊkpin ikilomita atari ni eying.That same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.

14Akasʊ pɛrɛ ni opyomo bekai kukum ʊmʊsini ʊsi.They were talking with each other about everything that had happened.

15Nisini akʊ pɛrɛ asu pya onuo ʊring men ni opyo mo, Iyesu ko kuno nivuo asu kyeng kǝni ɔmɔɔ.And as they talked and deliberated, Jesus Himself came up and walked along with them.

16Oroo ngɛ, yip ɛkǝne kperhimo asani Iyesu ngee.But their eyes were kept from recognizing Him.

17Iyesu ko gyurho mo, “Ikimoyo inyi ku pɛrɛ ni opyony, sini inyi ku kyeng bi ʊtira?” Aka ting nakprukpring, abubura ikywi.He asked them, “What are you discussing so intently as you walk along?” They stood still, with sadness on their faces.

18Ereying bi idɔɔ mo, sini ayirhi ʊtʊwa ni Ikilopas, ko gyurho ngɛ, “Ʊnwʊɔ eyeyinw ʊni ekyeng bi Urushelima sini ʊnɛ kperhinw ʊring men sini uku kyeng ba awri men ni?”One of them, named Cleopas, asked Him, “Are You the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in recent days?”

19Iyesu ko gyurho mo,“Ʊkina ʊma?” Oko yoro ngɛ, “Ʊma sini upen Iyesu ari Inazaret. Ani arʊ pɛrɛ onuo Ʊnʊng ngɛ. Ʊring ngɛ kǝni ʊʊma ʊsaa ni ikrʊʊ bi ite Ʊnʊng adarha bi ite orokru kukum.“What things?” He asked. “The events involving Jesus of Nazareth,” they answered. “This man was a prophet, powerful in speech and action before God and all the people.

20Ogu ubyen Ʊnʊng kǝni ogumo akpari ngɛ ama aki akywaa iring ukpo imisini anu aka kpaa baya agara ɛpɛrɛ ngɛ,Our chief priests and rulers delivered Him up to the sentence of death, and they crucified Him.

21yip arʊ ku ʊtira ikywi ngɛ asani ɛngɛɛ nʊ basa ari Isrela oforo. Si ʊkywɛrɛwɔ wurha, echiye ni awri ʊmang taru wro kǝni sini ʊmamen si ni.But we were hoping He was the One who would redeem Israel. And besides all this, it is the third day since these things took place.

22Adarha ngɛ opyo erere bi idɔɔ arʊ kǝ jijire arʊ nagang, sini ɛshini ni ititikywa yen akya eberi ɔgrɔn,Furthermore, some of our women astounded us. They were at the tomb early this morning,

23yip akyana romo ʊkʊng ngee. Oko juro aba tana arʊ asani imɔ rong opyo atina Ʊnʊng arʊ sini atana arʊ asani Iyesu ni akrʊ.but they did not find His body. They came and told us they had seen a vision of angels, who said that Jesus was alive.

24Ikpara dang opyo arʊ bi idɔɔ arʊ kǝ shinɛ kya ɔgrɔn owro sini emine ngɛ aya darha nɛmɛr kǝni sini ɛkǝri erere pɛrɛ ni, yip akya no romo Iyesu ngɛ.”Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had described. But Him they did not see.”

25Akywa dang Iyesu ka sani ɔmɔ ni, “Inyi sine nye inyi ni egmee kǝn, inyi sine nye inyi ni oshong owro oyoro bidɔɔ ikywiny ni kukum imisini arʊ pɛrɛ onuo Ʊnʊng pɛri!Then Jesus said to them, “O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!

26Si itɔɔyo Ikristi kung igara ʊmamen ko shoo ni ʊraa igumo ngɛ?”Was it not necessary for the Christ to suffer these things and then to enter His glory?”

27Iyesu ka tana mo kukum imisini ɔwori bi idɔɔ iring Ʊnʊng bi ikywie, kpara bai ogro Imusa adarha kukum ʊwɔrɔ arʊ pɛrɛ onuo Ʊnʊng.And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, He explained to them what was written in all the Scriptures about Himself.

28Nisini etekya fwa ɛkǝri apyang sini eye kyamo ngɛ, Iyesu ko suno ngɛ ni okyoro kǝni aya kyaa ki ikǝkarhawo ni.As they approached the village where they were headed, He seemed to be going farther.

29Yip oko sɔrhɔ ngɛ asani, “Ki kǝni arʊ ngɛ, kii ewure kpaa; ʊnʊng kywɛrɛwo.” Bi kǝna Iyesu ka raa ʊna akiki kǝni ɔmɔɔ.But they pleaded with Him, “Stay with us, for it is nearly evening and the day is almost over.” So He went in to stay with them.

30Akywa sini akiki kǝni ɔmɔɔ awa ra ʊmʊra, aka kpara agbankrɔ, kasa ija, oko jurho ama mo.While He was reclining at the table with them, He took bread, spoke a blessing and broke it, and gave it to them.

31Ikpara dang ikramo kǝ yɛɛ, ekǝ kperhi ngɛ asani Iyesu ngee, akywa dang oko vroo moni urong.Then their eyes were opened and they recognized Jesus—and He disappeared from their sight.

32Aka sani opyo omo ni, “Ʊbrʊbrʊ! Ikywi arʊ kasu pyayo sini akʊ pɛrɛ ni arʊ bi ʊtira asu furɔ arʊ iring Ʊnʊng”They asked each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us as He spoke with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?”

33Aka tira shinɛ ojuro kyamo Urushelima. Aka ya darha atina ngɛ atarhi ni eying dang otuni eberi ying kǝni opyoo arʊ,And they got up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven and those with them, gathered together

34akʊ tana ni, “Ʊbrʊbrʊwɔɔ! Ete karha akyu shinɛ! Eyen ʊkaa bi ite Isimon roo ngɛ.”and saying, “The Lord has indeed risen and has appeared to Simon!”

35Ɛkǝri ɔnɔ ʊmɛr apari ka tanamo imisini isi bi ʊtira, adarha sini ekperhi ni Iyesu ngɛ bakywa sini ojurhi ikyɛɛ ufuforho.Then the two told what had happened on the road, and how they had recognized Jesus in the breaking of the bread.

36Akywa sini eshi ʊtʊtana ʊring men Iyesu nivuo oko kuno abarating mo ofomo ngɛ asani, “Ʊyari ikywi kyeba eberi nyi.”While they were describing these events, Jesus Himself stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.”

37Ekǝ jijire ngɛ ka kung irʊng ngɛ nagang, asu wɔrɔfo kii imo rii ering ngɛ.But they were startled and frightened, thinking they had seen a spirit.

38Iyesu ka sani ɔmɔ ni, “Ikisi inyi kpi eyi, ikisi ikywiny ni ipari?“Why are you troubled,” Jesus asked, “and why do doubts arise in your hearts?

39Inyi rong ivum kǝni ifraam. Imyee nivum! Inyi pyam akʊng; kii ering saa ni inama ngɛ kǝni okwoo, kǝni sini inyi rii ini oyo ngɛ ni.”Look at My hands and My feet. It is I Myself. Touch Me and see—for a spirit does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.”

40Nisini eperi kǝna ekǝ yen mo ivuo kǝni ifraa.And when He had said this, He showed them His hands and feet.

41Bʊkǝna ʊsang uyoromo, bekai ofofuru kǝni ujijire. Ikpara dang Iyesu ko gyurho mo, “Inyi ni iri ʊmʊra ngɛ ben?”While they were still in disbelief because of their joy and amazement, He asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?”

42Aka maa uting itofuru ufuforho,So they gave Him a piece of broiled fish,

43aka yirha ara bi ite mo.and He took it and ate it in front of them.

44Iyesu kasa ni ɔmɔ ni,“Imisini itanayi ye akywa sini ishishi kǝni enyi ngɛ: Kukum ʊmasini ɔwɔri bi idɔɔ ogro Imusa, arʊ pɛrɛ onuo Ʊnʊng kǝni ɛtɛ, itɔɔyo itirɛ bi ikywim.”Jesus said to them, “These are the words I spoke to you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about Me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms.”

45Ikpara dang ekǝ yɛɛ mo ikywi aki ɛkperhi iring Ʊnʊng ngɛ.Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures.

46Aka tana mo, “Imisini ɔwɔri ye: Ikristi nʊ si igara, ɛshinɛ, ba awri ʊmang taru.And He told them, “This is what is written: The Christ will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day,

47Okojo wɔrɔ asani bidɔɔ ʊpyaawɔ anu tana iring ididima bidɔɔ ʊtʊwa ngɛ kya kukum Ibʊng atikpa bai Urushelima, ni orokru shere ʊya ngɛ aki Ʊnʊng pʊnamɔ ʊyamɔ ngɛ.and in His name repentance and forgiveness of sins will be proclaimed to all nations, beginning in Jerusalem.

48Inyimo inyi ni arʊ sini inyi rii imisini isi ben. Itɔɔyo inyi tana opyo arʊ bekaiyo.You are witnesses of these things.

49Nɛchiyɛn inyi kung, Inu tumany ni ʊma onuo Ɛkpɛrim Ering ʊshisha bayany; yip inyi sha bidɔɔ apya noru kekya akywa sini inyi nʊ tirɛ ni ikrʊ ba ayaya.”And behold, I am sending the promise of My Father upon you. But remain in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.”

50Iyesu ko kuno ni ɔnɔ ʊmɛr ngɛ bi idɔɔ apya kekyaa ʊkpin Ibetani, ekǝ shwe ivʊ ayaya kasa ija.When Jesus had led them out as far as Bethany, He lifted up His hands and blessed them.

51Nisini asa ija, ekǝ sheremo Ʊnʊng ka kpara ngɛ kyaa ayaya.While He was blessing them, He left them and was carried up into heaven.

52Oko kpukporo akywa dang ko dɔɔ ekǝ tirɛ ni ofofuru nagang oko ojuro kyamo Urushelima.And they worshiped Him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy,

53Kukina ʊnʊng anʊ bi ubyen ʊnʊng asʊ dɔɔ Ʊnʊng ngɛ kǝni ʊsa ija.praising God continually in the temple.
