1. 1LDBMɔcɛ Uyesu adɛyiwe angwɛ̃ imesanga unyaka arherhe aki ifɛn-Num ubɛn ivang na aneke igũ azhe.BSBBSB: Then Jesus told them a parable about their need to pray at all times and not lose heart:
2. 2LDBUnga agɛ, <<Utepa nukpɔ uner uwuku utsu uvau aka asi igũa iwei Unum, asi ihwɛngnga unera.BSBBSB: “In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected men.
3. 3LDBRu uteu ha utsɛ̃rhãpfu ruwɔ akɛyi ru utsa ha anu igɔr unga agɛ, <Umaa utsĩ ra ateu umum nggu abika akpɛ̃na umum.>BSBBSB: And there was a widow in that town who kept appealing to him, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’
4. 4LDB<<Unga atirhi akpɛ̃ɛ̃, bɔr unga abvui agɔr ra amɛnnga agɛ, <Umum ihwɛng ugɛ umum isi igũmum iwei Unum, ni isi ihwɛng anera,BSBBSB: For a while he refused, but later he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect men,
5. 5LDBbɔr utsɛ̃rhãpfu uwurɛ akɛna umum iwiwosha. Umum ima iyike unga, utsur ikikɛyanga izhengge umum.> >>BSBBSB: yet because this widow keeps pestering me, I will give her justice. Otherwise, she will wear me out with her perpetual requests.’”
6. 6LDBUteijee agɛ, <<Àka agũ ubinkpi uner uwuku utsu uvau uwu amɛn aka atãrhã aka arherhe.BSBBSB: And the Lord said, “Listen to the words of the unjust judge.
7. 7LDBUnum asi íkorhuka anernga aka asɛng abinkɛ aka arhika, abirabɛ aki iciu ru utsuu na atenum ru unga? Unga awuri adɔ̃rhũnga ri iyike umbɔ?BSBBSB: Will not God bring about justice for His elect who cry out to Him day and night? Will He delay in helping them?
8. 8LDBUmum idɛyiwa umbi, awuri iyikuka umbɔ ifitem ikɛi ru ubinkpi umbɔ aka abee. Bɔr Ungwɛ̃-Ner aka iba, awuri ikpoa imangmang ru upfung?>>BSBBSB: 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. 9LDBRa abirabɛ aka adzowe imangmang ra atsimbɔ agɛ umbɔ arhika, na anu iyɛɛi abikase, Uyesu arherhe unyaka arherhe ugɛ,BSBBSB: To some who trusted in their own righteousness and viewed others with contempt, He also told this parable:
10. 10LDB<<Inera ivaa atsĩ ifɛn-Num ru ufɔm Iya-Num, unying awu utsa Ufarisi, uwu uvaa awu uner uwuku uyɛi ikirbi abĩ.BSBBSB: “Two men went up to the temple to pray. One was a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.
11. 11LDBUner Ufarisi ha asok abera adɛ̃ɛ̃ afɛn-Num ri itsikamnga agɛ, <A Unum, umum itar uwɛɛ ĩdzaa ungo umum iki isi iwemum ru nyaka avɛu, abika ida irhirhika, abika atoma-dak, use uwuku uyɛi ikirbi abĩ uwurɛ.BSBBSB: 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. 12LDBUmum ikpem igha ubin idiki ivaa ri inuma utɔɔva, ni idzowe unying ra abina usɔka ra abinkɛ umum iki ikpo kishoo.>BSBBSB: I fast twice a week and pay tithes of all that I acquire.’
13. 13LDB<<Bɔr uner uwuku uyɛi ikirbi abĩ hã adɛ̃ɛ̃ uku uka. Asi ibera asunga arhisa afã, bɔr abangu ikɔknga na agɛ, <A Unum, ugũ atorh umum uner arhim.>BSBBSB: 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. 14LDB<<Umum idɛyiwa umbi, uner uwuku uyɛi ikirbi abĩ hã abvui azĩ ri iyanga, Unum anyanga unga awu uner uwuku urhika, bɔr asi inyangu utsa uwɔrɔ awea rimi. Ubɛn unerwi aka aberi itsinga, awuri irhɛrhuwe ike. Nu uwuruwi aka arhɛrhi itsinga, awuri ibiberuwe ike.>>BSBBSB: 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. 15LDBAnera ikɛi akũ angwɛ̃rhã awɛkaci aba ru Uyesu abanga umbɔ. Angwɛ̃ imesanga aka anyã rimi, umbɔ atsɛrha umbɔ.BSBBSB: 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. 16LDBBɔr Uyesu ayisa awɛkaci ha azĩ ru unga, na agɛ, <<Àka aneke awɛkaci aba ru umum, Àka niba akɛnmbi umbɔ, Iyɛrhe Unum iwu iyi ikpũmbɔ.BSBBSB: 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. 17LDBUmum indɛyiwa umbi idzidzɛrhe, ubɛn unerwi aka asi iyɛisa Iyɛrhe Unum ru nyaku uwɛkuci, asi ídɛ̃ɛ̃ atsĩã ri ngge.>>BSBBSB: Truly I tell you, anyone who does not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”
18. 18LDBUyɛrhu Uyahuda uwɔɔ arhusa unga agɛ, <<A umarhem uwuku uze, umum ikorhe uguse ni ikpo urhɛ uwu ugbagbaa?>>BSBBSB: Then a certain ruler asked Him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”
19. 19LDBUyesu agɔr unga agɛ, <<Awu use utsu ungo uyisa umum uwuku uze? Uwuku uze ashia, Unum ukpekũ awu uwuku uze.BSBBSB: “Why do you call Me good?” Jesus replied. “No one is good except God alone.
20. 20LDBUngo uhwɛngo íkpem iyɛrɛ, <Niba ufɛrɔ unera, niba utomungo-dak, niba uvɛpɔ ivɛu, niba ugbɛrɔ angwĩ utsukukɔ unera, udzowe igɔng ru utɛngo nu uyango.> >>BSBBSB: 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. 21LDBUwɛdzɛm hã agɛ, <<A umarhem, umum iki idɔsumum akɛrɛ ha kishoo rimɔ̃ɔ̃, utirhi ri iwɛ̃nci.>>BSBBSB: “All these I have kept from my youth,” he said.
22. 22LDBUyesu aka agũ rimi, unga agɔr unga agɛ, <<Ungo ubɔr ubina unying ukpekũ. Ugoshe abinngo kishoo, udzowe uhwɛka ra atsũwã, nu uba udɔsa umum. Mɔcɛ ungo uwuri iweɔ ru ugbɛta urhɛrhɛ ra afã.>>BSBBSB: 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. 23LDBUnga aka agũ rimi, amɛnnga aghong akarhãrhã, ubinkutsu unga awu uner ubin akarhãrhã.BSBBSB: But when the ruler heard this, he became very sad, because he was extremely wealthy.
24. 24LDBUyesu arhi unga na agɔr agɛ, <<Aghong uner ubin aka itsĩ ri Iyɛrhe Unum.BSBBSB: Seeing the man’s sadness, Jesus said, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!
25. 25LDBIdzidzɛrhe, uwuri ighwɔrhungge Urhakumi utsĩ ra angwĩ inepurha nu uner ubin aka itsĩ ri Iyɛrhe Unum.>>BSBBSB: 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. 26LDBAbika agũ rimi, arhusa agɛ, <<Ungaa adɛ̃ɛ̃ akpo ififɔrh?>>BSBBSB: Those who heard this asked, “Who then can be saved?”
27. 27LDBUyesu agɛ, <<Ubin ukpuku unang anera, Unum ananga ukpɔ.>>BSBBSB: But Jesus said, “What is impossible with man is possible with God.”
28. 28LDBUbitru agɔr unga agɛ, <<Umɛn abɛ ineke abinmɛn kishoo ni idɔsa ungo!>>BSBBSB: “Look,” said Peter, “we have left all we had to follow You.”
29. 29LDBUyesu agɔr umbɔ agɛ, <<Umum indɛyiwa umbi idzidzɛrhe, unera asi íneke iya use utsɛrh, use angwɛ̃mbɔ, use ateinga, use awɛkaci ri itsi Iyɛrhe Unum,BSBBSB: “Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or wife or brothers or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God
30. 30LDBna asi ikpoa arhɛrhɛ ru udan ukpirɛ, ru unum upfung uku ufa uku iba ikɛi unga akpo urhɛ uwu ugbagbaa.>>BSBBSB: will fail to receive many times more in this age—and in the age to come, eternal life.”
31. 31LDBUyesu akũna umbɔ usɔkdũmɛn azĩ ri ibanga, na adɛyiwe umbɔ agɛ, <<Umɛn izĩ ufã Urusharhima, nu kishoo abinkɛ abika asɔm Arherhu-Num aka atsɛng ri itsi Ungwɛ̃-Ner awuri itsuafɛrke.BSBBSB: Then Jesus took the Twelve aside and said to them, “Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and everything the prophets have written about the Son of Man will be fulfilled.
32. 32LDBAwuri idzowe unga ra abok atsen abi Uyahuda. Umbɔ awuri iyɛia unga, arhena unga, ashau aci atsuyiwe unga, awuri ikwɛr unga, na afɛre unga.BSBBSB: He will be delivered over to the Gentiles and will be mocked and insulted and spit upon.
33. 33LDBRu unum untaar unga awuri isoka ikɛi.>>BSBBSB: They will flog Him and kill Him, and on the third day He will rise again.”
34. 34LDBBɔr angwɛ̃ imesanga asi igũ arherhanga ataimbɔ. Agbena awuwɔk ru umbɔ, nu umbɔ asi ihwɛngmbɔ ubinkpi unga aka arherhe.BSBBSB: But the disciples did not understand any of these things. The meaning was hidden from them, and they did not comprehend what He was saying.
35. 35LDBUyesu aka ayoku Ujeriko, uner ibvuta asei nu ubang utsĩndĩã anu ifɛn.BSBBSB: As Jesus drew near to Jericho, a blind man was sitting beside the road, begging.
36. 36LDBIvangyɛ unga aka agũ ititɔng anera arhɛrhɛ, unga arhusa agɛ awu use uni izãrhã?BSBBSB: When he heard the crowd going by, he asked what was happening.
37. 37LDBUmbɔ adɛyiwe unga agɛ, <<Uyesu uner Unazarat unga atɔng.>>BSBBSB: “Jesus of Nazareth is passing by,” they told him.
38. 38LDBUnga atsarhi irhaknga ayisa agɛ, <<Uyesu! Ungwɛ̃ Udauda! Ugũ atorh umum!>>BSBBSB: So he called out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”
39. 39LDBAbika azɛ̃rhã ra asu Uyesu atsɛrha unga agɛ unga unukutata, bɔr unga agbisha atsarhi irhaknga agɛ, <<A Ungwɛ̃ Udauda! Ugũ atorh umum.>>BSBBSB: Those who led the way admonished him to be silent, but he cried out all the louder, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
40. 40LDBUyesu adɛ̃ɛ̃ na atsu umbɔ akũ uner ibvuta ha aba ru unga. Unga aka aba ukhapa, Uyesu arhusa unga agɛ,BSBBSB: Jesus stopped and directed that the man be brought to Him. When he had come near, Jesus asked him,
41. 41LDB<<Ungo ubee umum ikorhuwa ungo use?>> Unga agɛ, <<A Uteijee, umum ibee ikpo inyã anang.>>BSBBSB: “What do you want Me to do for you?” “Lord,” he said, “let me see again.”
42. 42LDBUyesu agɔr unga agɛ, <<Uyɛi inyinyãngo. Imangmangngo ngge ikerhuwa ungo.>>BSBBSB: “Receive your sight!” Jesus replied. “Your faith has healed you.”
43. 43LDBKanying asunga ayanguke, unga adɔsu Uyesu na akpoi Unum. Anera kishoo aka anyã rimi, umbɔ akpoi Unum ikɛi.BSBBSB: Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus, glorifying God. And all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God.
