Luke 6 (KHJ) · Opened

1Opyo awri uwuro Ayaudiya Iyesu kǝni ɔnɔ ʊmɛr ngɛ akasʊ wɔrɔ bi idɔɔ abya ogro, ɔnɔ ʊmɛr ngɛ kasu hywurha akywi ogro ekǝ wrem ikiri ngɛ asu ra.One Sabbath Jesus was passing through the grainfields, and His disciples began to pick the heads of grain, rub them in their hands, and eat them.

2Opyo Afarisiya ko gyurho, “Ikisi inyi kusa imisini isayo nɛmɛr ni ogro awri uwuro Ayaudiya?”But some of the Pharisees asked, “Why are you doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?”

3Iyesu ko yoro mo kasani, “Inyi se parany imisini Idouda si bakywa sini ingɛɛ kǝni orobyoo akʊng ihywung?Jesus replied, “Have you not read what David did when he and his companions were hungry?

4Arii Ʊna Ʊnʊng ka kpara agbankrɔ imu pupuna, aka ra imisini isayo nɛmɛr, ogoku ubyen Ʊnʊng ngɛ eyeyie nushu ʊra, kojo ma orobyoo ipyoo.”He entered the house of God, took the consecrated bread and gave it to his companions, and ate what is lawful only for the priests to eat.”

5Iyesu ka tanamo ni, “Ɔnɔ orokru ngɛ ni Ete awri uwuro Ayaudiya.”Then Jesus declared, “The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.”

6Bo opyo awri uwuro Ayaudiya Iyesu kakya owro utuno Ayaudiya kasu mɛr, opyo orokru sini avu amu raa rhie shoo burha.On another Sabbath Jesus entered the synagogue and was teaching, and a man was there whose right hand was withered.

7Afarisiya kǝni avʊwa ʊmɛr ogro Imusa nuwo akʊ roo asu yara ngɛ, orong kii anu ma ɛkǝri arʊ ra avu ikrʊ ʊnʊng uwuro Ayaudiya aki imo kpin ngɛ ni ʊya.Looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, the scribes and Pharisees were watching Him closely to see if He would heal on the Sabbath.

8Iyesu kperhi ʊwɔrɔfomo ngɛ aka sani ɛkǝri arʊ ra avuni,“shinɛ aba atiting bi ite ben.”Ekǝ shinɛ atiting burha.But Jesus knew their thoughts and said to the man with the withered hand, “Get up and stand among us.” So he got up and stood there.

9Iyesu ka sani ɔmɔ ni, “Iwɛi ugyurhony, ikimɔyɔ ogro Imusa tani arʊ, arʊ sa imisini inɛmɛr awri uwuro Ayaudiya? Asa ima ididima kii ima ibibi? Asa oforo ofo kii abura ngɛ?”Then Jesus said to them, “I ask you, which is lawful on the Sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life or to destroy it?”

10Oko gyo ikra asu rongmo kukum, aka sani ɛkǝri arʊ ra avu ni, “Naa avunw.” Aka naa, avuɔ kasa akrʊ kǝni ushoyo ba akywaa ni.And after looking around at all of them, He said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He did so, and it was restored.

11Ekǝri Afarisiya kǝni avuwa ʊmɛr ogro ka kung anang ngɛ nagang, oko sunomoo ʊpɛrɛ ni opyoomo ani ikimoyo imo nusa Iyesu ngɛ.But the scribes and Pharisees were filled with rage and began to discuss with one another what they might do to Jesus.

12Upyu ʊnʊng bi idɔɔ awri dang Iyesu ka kyaa ʊsɔrhɔ Ʊnʊng ki aya ukro, aka kpara eting okokuro akʊ sɔrhɔ Ʊnʊng ngɛ.In those days Jesus went out to the mountain to pray, and He spent the night in prayer to God.

13Ni sini ikywa yeri aka yirha arʊ kroo ngɛ, ko woro arʊ atarhi na apari bi idɔɔmo aka yirhamɔni ɔnɔ ʊmɛr.When daylight came, He called His disciples to Him and chose twelve of them, whom He also designated as apostles:

14Ʊpya atina ngɛ ni Isimon (arʊ sini ayirhi ngɛ ni Ibitrus), arupyaa Andirawus, Iyakubu, Iyohana, Ifilibus, Ibatalomi,Simon, whom He named Peter, and his brother Andrew; James and John; Philip and Bartholomew;

15Imatiyu, Itoma, kǝni Iyakubu, (ɔnɔ Ihaifa), Isimon arʊ sini ani arʊ waa ibʊng ngɛ,Matthew and Thomas; James son of Alphaeus and Simon called the Zealot;

16kǝni Iyahuda (ɔnɔ Iyakubu) kaba darha Iyahuda Iskariyoti (arʊ sini agbuni Iyesu ngɛ).Judas son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.

17Iyesu kata shuro ngɛ kǝni ɔmɔ kaya atiting bi opyo owroo sini asi neterh, ɔnɔ ʊmɛr ngɛ kukum kǝni akai orokru bai kukum owro bi Iyahudiya, kǝni Urushelima, kǝni a marha Ibung Itaya kǝni Isidɔn arʊ sini ani bi onuo ugro ʊrɛThen Jesus came down with them and stood on a level place. A large crowd of His disciples was there, along with a great number of people from all over Judea, Jerusalem, and the seacoast of Tyre and Sidon.

18Abii awa ba kuwɔ epen ikrʊ bai idumo ededei sini iku wuremo. Arʊ sini ering ebebi kuwuremo ma epen ikrʊ.They had come to hear Him and to be healed of their diseases, and those troubled by unclean spirits were healed.

19Kukum orokru kasu sunomo ngɛ ʊwaa ʊpya Iyesu ngɛ kii ikrʊ kusu kuno bai owroo kasu mamo ikrʊ kukum mo.The entire crowd was trying to touch Him, because power was coming from Him and healing them all.

20Oko kong ɔnɔ ʊmɛr ngɛ ikra ka sani, “Ʊnʊng tany onuo adadʊma inyi ara ayarha, kii igumo Ʊnʊng ni inyiyo.Looking up at His disciples, Jesus said: “Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.

21Ʊnʊng tany onuo adadʊma inyi arʊ sini inyi kʊng ihywunw kaimen men, kii inyi nʊ ra oshuro. Ʊnʊng tany onuo adadʊma inyi arʊ su utei kaimen men, kii inyi nʊ sina.Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be filled. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.

22Onuo adadʊma ni enyi, akywa sini orokru tirimɔ nyi, okyony bi itung, atirany ayirha ʊtʊwa nyi ere etetingmo, Bekai ɔnɔ orokru.Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude you and insult you and reject your name as evil because of the Son of Man.

23“Inyi sumɛ ʊnʊng dang ofuno ni ɛmɛ kii ʊkara nyi ni ʊgrɔɔ bayaya, kii kǝnawo ɛkpɛrimɔ si ni arʊ tana onuo Ʊnʊng bai itee.Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, because great is your reward in heaven. For their fathers treated the prophets in the same way.

24“Yip okwo ne nyi arʊ shoo ni ima avu ngɛ, kii inyi kywɛrɛ ʊkʊng ididima kaimen men.But woe to you who are rich, for you have already received your comfort.

25Okwo ne nyi arʊ sini inyi ra oshuro kaimen men, kii ihywunw nʊ rany. Okwo ne nyi arʊ su sina kaimen, kii inyi nʊ tei kǝni ʊbʊra ikywi ngɛ.Woe to you who are well fed now, for you will hunger. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will mourn and weep.

26Okwo ne inyi ikpara sini orokru kukum ku tana ʊring udidima bi ikywiny, kii kǝnawo ekperimo si ni arʊ pɛrɛ onuo Ʊnʊng upre eteting.Woe to you when all men speak well of you, for their fathers treated the false prophets in the same way.

27“Yip kyeba eberi nyi arʊ sini inyi ku kung isini: Inyi waa arʊ sini atirimo nyi, asa arʊ sini ana waamɔ nyi nɛgbɛn.But to those of you who will listen, I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,

28Yip arʊ sini ating onuo ebebi, inyi tamo onuo adadʊma arʊ sini akʊ sanw ibibi inyi sɔrhɔ Ʊnʊng bekaimo.bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.

29Araru ba gyong bi uwen ʊtama utere ngɛ ʊwan ʊtama kawo. Araru ba kparanw igbɛ irɛ ngɛ bekya karha ngɛ ni imi dɔɔ ngɛ.If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. And if someone takes your cloak, do not withhold your tunic as well.

30Arʊ sini ɔbɔ sɔrhɔnw ʊmaa, arʊ sini aba kparanw iririma, bekya sani ngɛ ni ojuro amanw.Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what is yours, do not demand it back.

31Ima sini ʊwɛi ni orokru.Do to others as you would have them do to you.

32“Ikimoyɔ unupen ʊba waa arʊ sini ɛwɛinwʊ mɔ ko arʊya sa waa arʊ sini ɛwɛimɔ kamɔ.If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them.

33Iboshoo arʊ sini a sanw nɛgbɛn mo ʊnʊ samɔ nɛgbɛn ʊsa kǝna nʊ manw iking? Kǝnawɔ arʊya sirhi kamɔ.If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do the same.

34Bushoo arʊ sini inyi ku ʊtira ikywi anushe ʊkpʊrany mo inyi ku mamo ita, ikimoyo inyi nupen bi sakǝna, kǝnawo ere eteting sema arʊya ʊta kǝni ʊkpɛrhi ngɛ asani anu kpura mo napʊpʊrhi.And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full.

35Inyi waa arʊ sini ana waamɔ nyi, inyi samɔ nɛgbɛn, inyi mamo ʊta, oworo ikywiny ngɛ. Ikpara dang inyi nʊpen ʊkara nyi napany baa ayaya, inyi nu shoo ɔnɔ Ʊnʊng Ayaya, kii Ʊnʊng ni ari agbagba ngɛ eberi arʊ na sirhi ija kǝni ari eteting.But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them, expecting nothing in return. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High; for He is kind to the ungrateful and wicked.

36Inyi kung okwo kǝni sini Ɛkpɛriny ni okwo ngɛ ni.Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

37“Bekya kywa ararʊ iring, kii anasu kywamo nwu iring. Inyi bekya sani ararʊ ni aya, inyi kany anasʊ samɔni inyi ya, inyi pʊna ʊya orokru ngɛ, anu pʊna unyi ngɛ kany.Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.

38Ma orokru Ʊnʊng nʊ maunw kanw ɛtitirɛ isong ojujuro ojo sanw ngɛ isu nirayo, anu sha ʊparha ɛshɛɛ akwunanw bi ivʊ. Kii isɔng sini ʊmarhi ngɛyɔ anʊ marhanw niyɔ.”Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.”

39Iyesu ka tanamɔ ushosho wen ofow nuyen ofow itira? Apaparimɔ naw kpaamɔ kidɔɔ igara?Jesus also told them a parable: “Can a blind man lead a blind man? Will they not both fall into a pit?

40Ɔnɔ ʊmɛr ne pri ngɛ avuwa, arʊ sini abakya mɛr nashisha anu shoo kǝni avuwa ngɛ ni.A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone who is fully trained will be like his teacher.

41“Ikisi uku rong isu sini ini bi ikra arupyanw. Yip uyuronwoo ni ukumo ʊshi sini ʊni bi ikraunw?Why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye but fail to notice the beam in your own eye?

42Ʊnʊ sanenyewo ka sani arupyanw ni ‘Arupya, ting aki iworonw isu bi ikraunw,’ ekwere sini ʊnwɔ ʊnabranw urong ukumo ʊshi sini ʊni bidɔɔ ikraunw? Inyi arʊ pre eteting, inyi woro ukumo ʊshi sini ʊni bidɔɔ ikrany noru orong owro nashisha ko shoo nʊ uworo isu sini ini bi ikra arupyanw.How can you say, ‘Brother, let me take the speck out of your eye,’ while you yourself fail to see the beam in your own eye? You hypocrite! First take the beam out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

43“Ushi ududuma no sumowo ɔnɔ ebebi, kǝnawo ʊshi ubibi nosumowo osumo ɔnɔ adaduma.No good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit.

44Ese kpɛrhi ʊshingɛ bi usumo ngɛ. Anau karhamo osumo uwee bi ʊshi akara, ko inabi bi ikyura oku.For each tree is known by its own fruit. Indeed, figs are not gathered from thornbushes, nor grapes from brambles.

45Orokru adadʊma ese sa ima ididima bai idɔɔ ikywi ididima ngɛ. Kǝnawo ere ebebi se sa ʊring ubibi bai ikywi ibibi. Ima sini inidɔɔ orokru yen imisini inu kuno bi onuonw.The good man brings good things out of the good treasure of his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil treasure of his heart. For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks.

46“Ikisi inyi ku yirham ni ‘Ete, Ete,’ atiranyi ʊsa imi sini Isini inyi sa?Why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ but do not do what I say?

47Arʊ sini aba ba beberim akʊng ʊringmi a samɔ, inu yen nyi ushoo mo.I will show you what he is like who comes to Me and hears My words and acts on them:

48Ani kǝni orokru sini akʊ vura ʊna, arʊ sini otumi ibʊng kyaa idɔɔ asa atari ngɛ aka sai ikpa ʊvʊra ngɛ, akywa sini ugro be tirɛ, ʊgyang ko kuno ogyoo ɛkǝri ʊbɔrʊ akana brayɔ ukono jurowo bekai sini avuri nɛgbɛn.He is like a man building a house, who dug down deep and laid his foundation on the rock. When the flood came, the torrent crashed against that house but could not shake it, because it was well built.

49Arʊ sini aba kung ʊringmi atira ngɛ ʊsa ʊtina ni ɔmɔ, ani kǝni orokru sini avuri ʊbɔrʊ ba ukyo tumo ibʊng asa atari ngɛ bai ikpa ʊvʊra, akywa sini ugro be tirɛ, ʊgyang ko kuno ogyoo ɛkǝri ʊbɔrʊ, ʊka kpaawo no prob abuburawo.”But the one who hears My words and does not act on them is like a man who built his house on ground without a foundation. The torrent crashed against that house, and immediately it fell—and great was its destruction!”
