1Gɛ̀ shɛge aju afaa mo nyume Ŋka wu Ndaŋfe mo Ŋka wu Blɛd wù ba baaŋ gɛɛ gɛ kinshilɛ yo gɛ. Bachiji kintanyɛ ba baaŋ baaŋ mo bamii ba duunyi banchi ba Nyo mo bo goone je yì bo koo Jiso yu nyilɛ le, bo yuuyɛ.Now the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread were two days away, and the chief priests and scribes were looking for a covert way to arrest Jesus and kill Him.

2Bo chu ntaŋ lɛbolɛbo lɛ, “Keefɛ besabɛŋ moŋ fiɛɛ finɛ kife kì ba gee Ŋka le gɛ, nje besabɛŋ moŋ lo, fi to bɛ jwe a bamii ntɛnɛɛ.”“But not during the feast,” they said, “or there may be a riot among the people.”

3Jiso gɛ̀ bee ntɛ wù Bɛtani le, a Samoŋ yeh wù gɛ̀ shɛɛ wù nyu muh goŋ yì baaŋ, bo shii bo jii mwɛɛ, kwɛse wumu ja wu lee bɛ fikaaŋ fi mɛɛ mà gwee wuŋ.

No wu leese, wu mo wu gwenyɛ jwe wu fikaaŋ fiyu wu fuushɛ mɛɛ mayu yi kikwɛɛ ki Jiso le.While Jesus was in Bethany reclining at the table in the home of Simon the Leper, a woman came with an alabaster jar of expensive perfume, made of pure nard. She broke open the jar and poured it on Jesus’ head.

4Bamii bamu ja bo tu bo shuŋshi lɛbolɛbo bo duu lɛ, “Wu chɛŋe bɛ mɛɛ mayu nɛ nje la?Some of those present, however, expressed their indignation to one another: “Why this waste of perfume?

5Ba taŋlo ba gesɛ mɛɛ mayu fe bige banchvuge gii yitɛde, ba nya bige biyu bamii ba kifufe le.” Bo tu bo ŋase lo bɛ wu.It could have been sold for over three hundred denarii and the money given to the poor.” And they scolded her.

6Geenɛ, Jiso jɛmɛ bo le lɛ, “Bɛŋ chînɛ wu le. Bɛŋ nyaa ŋgɛ wu le nɛ nje la? Wu le wu ge nyu fiɛɛ fì joŋe fɛ mɛne.But Jesus said, “Leave her alone; why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful deed to Me.

7Bɛŋ kêe lɛ bamii ba fuude lé bo gê bo nyûme bɛ bɛŋ segechii. Bɛŋ taŋlo bɛŋ fiih bo sege bɛŋ koŋe. Geenɛ, gɛ mɛ nyu ŋge nyume besabɛŋ segechii gɛ.The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them whenever you want. But you will not always have Me.

8Kwɛse wunɛ le wu ge nyu fiɛɛ fì taŋlo wu ge. Wu yefɛ mɛ bɛ mɛɛ manɛ nɛ nyu wu seese nyu ye yaŋ baaŋ lo no ba lé ba gê ba jîiyɛ mɛ.She has done what she could to anoint My body in advance of My burial.

9Nsɛŋe bɛŋ nchiɛɛŋ lɛ, mo nyu faaŋ fɛ ba lé ba gê ba fêeji saaka wù joŋe wunɛ yi kikwɛɛ ki nshɛŋ le kichii, fiɛɛ fì kwɛse wunɛ ge ba lé ba sɛ̂ŋe tɛ, ki ba kwaji wu.”And truly I tell you, wherever the gospel is preached in all the world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her.”

10Juda Ɛkaliot wù gɛ̀ bee muh a ŋgoo yi booŋ ba ŋgoo ba Jiso ba yuufe ncho bafɛɛ le, mo wu ja wu gɛɛŋ fɛ bachiji kintanyɛ ba baaŋ baaŋ le lɛ wu gesɛ Jiso bo le.Then Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, went to the chief priests to betray Jesus to them.

11Bo doo bo yu noo bo yu njoŋ baaŋ, bo mo bo ka lɛ bo lé bo nyâ wu bige. Wu mo wu kɛ wu goone je yì wu lé wu nyâ Jiso chiaaŋ yiboo le.They were delighted to hear this, and they promised to give him money. So Judas began to look for an opportunity to betray Jesus.

12Juu chì fwe chi Ŋka wu Blɛd wù ba baaŋ gɛɛ gɛ kinshilɛ yo gɛ, gɛ̀ to chi kojɛ chì bo to bo sɛɛyi mwa kiya wu Ŋka wu Ndaŋfe, booŋ ba Jiso ba ŋgoo biih wu le lɛ, “Wo goone lɛ bee gɛɛŋ bee seesɛ nyu faaŋ fɛ wo lé wo jî Ŋka wu Ndaŋfe fo?”On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, when the Passover lamb was to be sacrificed, Jesus’ disciples asked Him, “Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?”

13Wu mo wu tuŋ booŋ be ba ŋgoo bamu bafɛɛ, wu jɛmɛ bo le lɛ, “Bɛŋ gɛ̂ɛŋ alaantɛŋ, bɛŋ doo bɛŋ gɛɛne, bɛŋ yɛ̂ŋ muh le wu tuu joo a shaaŋ le, bɛŋ bi wu le.So He sent two of His disciples and told them, “Go into the city, and a man carrying a jug of water will meet you. Follow him,

14Sege wu gɛɛŋ wu lee yeh yì wu le wu lee yu, bɛŋ jɛ̂mɛ muh wù kɛme yeh yiyu le lɛ, Muh wu N'yɛyɛ biide laa kibuu ki yeh yi bamii ba njiɛnyɛ kɛɛ kì bɛ booŋ be ba ŋgoo lé bo jî Ŋka wu Ndaŋfe yu le faane la?and whichever house he enters, say to the owner, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is My guest room, where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?’

15Wu lé wu dûnyɛ kibuu ki yeh ki awe ba nyu ba seesɛ wa ba kɛnyɛ, bɛŋ mo bɛŋ seesɛ mwɛɛ munjile yu.”And he will show you a large upper room, furnished and ready. Make preparations for us there.”

16Booŋ ba ŋgoo bayu mo bo ja bo gɛɛŋ a kilaantɛŋ kiyu le, bo gɛɛŋ bo yɛŋ mwɛɛ nyu gɛh yɛɛŋyɛɛŋ no Jiso gɛ̀ jɛme bo le. Bo mo bo seesɛ mwɛɛ munjile mu Ŋka wu Ndaŋfe wuyu fo.So the disciples left and went into the city, where they found everything as Jesus had described. And they prepared the Passover.

17Lɛ to nyume fɛnfu, Jiso bɛ booŋ be ba ŋgoo ba yuufe ncho bafɛɛ taashɛ yu.When evening came, Jesus arrived with the Twelve.

18Bo shii bo tu bo jii mwɛɛ, Jiso ja wu jɛmɛ bo le lɛ, “Nsɛŋe bɛŋ nchiɛɛŋ lɛ muh mu bɛŋ le, lé wu gê wu gêsɛ mɛ, muh wunɛ jii mwɛɛ besa wu.”And while they were reclining and eating, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you, one of you who is eating with Me will betray Me.”

19Bo yu noo, bo ja bo tu bo nyume yii yii, bo jɛme wu le, wu mumwaa wu mumwaa lɛ, “Le mɛ?”They began to be grieved and to ask Him one after another, “Surely not I?”

20Wu chvuu lɛ, “Le gɛh muh mu bɛŋ ba yuufe ncho bafɛɛ le wù besa wu chude blɛd a shu le.He answered, “It is one of the Twelve—the one who is dipping his hand into the bowl with Me.

21Muh wù jee che le Mwamuh le wu gɛɛŋ gɛh no ba gɛ̀ saŋ kune wu. Geenɛ, ŋgɛ wù baaŋ le fɛ muh wù gesɛ muh wù jee che le Mwamuh. Fi be joŋe fɛ wuwɛɛ muh le lɛ keefɛ ba bôo wu gɛ.”The Son of Man will go just as it is written about Him, but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed! It would be better for him if he had not been born.”

22No bo gɛ̀ jii mwɛɛ, Jiso ja wu jo blɛd, wu nya kiyone Nyo le, wu bweeyɛ, wu nya booŋ be ba ŋgoo le wu jɛmɛ lɛ, “Bɛŋ ko, finɛ le ye yaŋ.”While they were eating, Jesus took bread, spoke a blessing and broke it, and gave it to the disciples, saying, “Take it; this is My body.”

23Wu mo wu jo tɛ fiŋkoo, wu nya kiyone Nyo le, wu mo wu nya fiŋkoo fiyu bo le, lɛ bo mu bo bachii.Then He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, and they all drank from it.

24Wu jɛmɛ bo le lɛ, “Finɛ le kilɛmɛ kaŋ kì Nyo gwo maŋkaŋ yu ki bu njɛ muh wù duude.He said to them, “This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many.

25Nsɛŋe bɛŋ nchiɛɛŋ lɛ gɛ̀ mbaaŋ ŋka mu mbvuuŋ ma nchwɛŋ wu kite ki laane manɛ gɛ, gɛɛŋ bu juu chì nlé ŋgê mmû ma manfɛŋ antɛnɛɛ a bvunfoŋ bvu Nyo.”Truly I tell you, I will no longer drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it anew in the kingdom of God.”

26Jiso bɛ booŋ be ba ŋgoo gɛ̀ mɛsɛ, bo yɛɛŋ ŋkee wu mbɛɛŋsɛ, bo mo bo bu bo bɛɛŋ bo gɛɛŋ yi Mbegɛ wu Bite bi Olif le.And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

27Jiso gɛ̀ ja wu jɛmɛ bo le lɛ, “Bɛŋ bachii lé bɛŋ gê bɛŋ chîi bikaa a mɛ jiŋ. Le no ba le ba saŋ lɛ Nyo duu lɛ, ‘Nlé ŋgê n'yu nchiɛnɛ shóŋ, shóŋ saaŋɛ.’Then Jesus said to them, “You will all fall away, for it is written: ‘I will strike the Shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.’

28Geenɛ, sege Nyo bvusɛ mɛ yi kwe le, nsa bɛŋ fwe Galalee.”But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”

29Bita chvuu Jiso le lɛ, “Nɛ bamii bachii chile bikaa a wo jiŋ, tu gɛ taŋlo nchii biaŋ gɛ.”Peter declared, “Even if all fall away, I never will.”

30Jiso jɛmɛ wu le lɛ, “Nsɛŋe wo nchiɛɛŋ lɛ kintaŋ ki abɛŋ kinɛ le, nyishii lé yi gê yi tôŋ kiŋgane kinfɛɛ, nyu wo faŋ wa mɛ kiŋgane kintɛde.”“Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “this very night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times.”

31Bita jɛmɛ fi tɛmɛ lo wu du lɛ, “Mo fi nyume lɛ nlé ŋkwê lo besa wo, tu gɛ taŋlo n'yu nfaŋ wo gɛ.” No wu jɛmɛ noo, bo bachii jɛmɛ gɛh tɛ noo.But Peter kept insisting, “Even if I have to die with You, I will never deny You.” And all the others said the same thing.

32Bo gɛɛŋ bo lee fɛ mwɛ wu kitaŋ kimi le, ba tɛŋe lɛ Gɛsɛmani, Jiso jɛmɛ booŋ be ba ŋgoo le lɛ, “Bɛŋ shîi fɛnɛ, ŋgɛɛŋ mbuunɛ.”Then they came to a place called Gethsemane, and Jesus told His disciples, “Sit here while I pray.”

33Wu mo wu jo Bita bɛ Jɛm mo Joŋ, bɛ bo ja fo. Wu ja wu tu wu kwaji mwɛɛ wu nyume yi maluŋ le.He took with Him Peter, James, and John, and began to be deeply troubled and distressed.

34Wu jɛmɛ bo le lɛ, “Fitele fiaŋ le yii yii baaŋ njɛ ŋkwe lo. Bɛŋ shɛ̂ɛ fɛnɛ bɛŋ chîɛɛne.”Then He said to them, “My soul is consumed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch.”

35Jiso ja fo wu kɛŋsɛ wu gɛɛŋ fwe shige, wu gwe fɛkuu, wu buunɛ lɛ nɛ je be bee yu, kife ki ŋgɛ kinɛ ki fe lo.Going a little farther, He fell to the ground and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour would pass from Him.

36Wu buunɛ lɛ, “Aba, Chii, wo taŋlo wo ge fiɛɛ fichii. Wo chîaasɛ fiŋkoo fi ŋgɛ finɛ lɛ keefɛ mɛ mu gɛ. Geenɛ, gee gɛh no wo koŋe. Keefɛ wo gê no ŋkoŋe gɛ.”“Abba, Father,” He said, “all things are possible for You. Take this cup from Me. Yet not what I will, but what You will.”

37Jiso kaasɛ wu tu jiŋ fɛ bo le, wu yɛŋ bo lefe. Wu biih Bita le lɛ, “Samoŋ, wo lefe lo? Gɛ taŋlo wo chiɛɛŋ, gɛɛŋ bu yi ntaŋ wu kife le kimimia gɛ?Then Jesus returned and found them sleeping. “Simon, are you asleep?” He asked. “Were you not able to keep watch for one hour?

38Bɛŋ nyûme we bɛŋ bûune lɛ keefɛ moŋ ge wu to fɛ bɛŋ le gɛ. Le nchiɛɛŋ lɛ fitele koŋe lo, geenɛ nyaŋ yi ye wɛɛyi.”Watch and pray so that you will not enter into temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak.”

39No wu jɛmɛ noo wu ka wu kaasɛ wu gɛɛŋ wu buunɛ gɛh no wu be buunɛ wa.Again He went away and prayed, saying the same thing.

40Wu doo wu kaasɛ wu tu jiŋ wu ka wu yɛŋ booŋ be ba ŋgoo lefe nje lefɛ gɛ̀ bee bo ajii baaŋ. Bo gɛ kɛɛ fiɛɛ fì bo chvuu wu le gɛ.And again Jesus returned and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy. And they did not know what to answer Him.

41Wu kaasɛ wu tu jiŋ kiŋgane kintɛde, wu biih bo le lɛ, “Bɛŋ baaŋ gɛh bɛŋ lefe bɛŋ fufe shɛŋ? Chi le chi kojɛ. Le wa kife. Ba le ba gesɛ wa muh wù jee che le Mwamuh bamii ba befe le.When Jesus returned the third time, He said, “Are you still sleeping and resting? That is enough! The hour has come. Look, the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

42Bɛŋ jâ we besabɛŋ gɛ̂ɛne. Bɛŋ jîŋɛ bɛŋ yɛ̂ŋ, nɛ muh wù gesɛ mɛ wunɛ, wu too wa.”Rise, let us go. See, My betrayer is approaching!”

43Gɛh no Jiso gɛ̀ baaŋ wu jɛme noo, kimimia Juda wù gɛ̀ bee muh ŋgoo yi booŋ ba Jiso ba yuufe ncho bafɛɛ le mo wu bunɛ. Wu gɛ̀ too bɛ kinchvu ki bamii bo kɛme nyó bɛ bimbuge, gɛ̀ tuŋ bachiji kintanyɛ ba baaŋ baaŋ bɛ bamii ba duunyi banchi mo bamii ba sage woŋ.While Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived, accompanied by a crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests, scribes, and elders.

44Gɛ̀ bee muh wù gɛ̀ gesɛ Jiso wu seesɛ wa njiŋɛ bɛ bamii bayu wu jɛmɛ lɛ, “Muh wù nlé ŋgê ŋkfugɛ nshiŋɛ, tu le wu, bɛŋ mo bɛŋ koo, bɛŋ jô bɛŋ gɛ̂ɛne bɛ wu bɛŋ jîiŋe lɛ keefɛ wu legɛ gɛ.”Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: “The One I kiss is the man; arrest Him and lead Him away securely.”

45No Juda to noo, wu mo wu gɛɛŋ lo fɛ Jiso le kimimia, wu yɛsɛ wu le lɛ, “Muh wu N'yɛyɛ.” No wu jɛmɛ noo, wu mo wu kfugɛ wu wu shiŋɛ.Going directly to Jesus, he said, “Rabbi!” and kissed Him.

46Bamii baa mo bo koo Jiso, bo fajɛ wu le.Then the men seized Jesus and arrested Him.

47Muh mu wù gɛ̀ lɛme bɛ ba Jiso mo wu bvusɛ nyo yi jɛŋ, wu chuŋ kintuŋ ki nfwa wu kikwɛɛ ki bachiji kintanyɛ yu, ki suunɛ.And one of the bystanders drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his ear.

48Jiso biih bamii bayu le lɛ, “Bɛŋ to ki bɛŋ kôo mɛ bɛŋ tu bɛŋ too bɛ nyó yi jɛŋ mo bimbuge njɛ bɛŋ too ki bɛŋ kôo nyûme chôŋ?Jesus asked the crowd, “Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest Me as you would an outlaw?

49Nchi nshee lɛ juu lɛ juu nshiide fɛ yeh yi kintanyɛ le, n'yɛyi bamii jɛ yi Nyo fo fɛ bɛŋ koo mɛ sɛŋ nje la? Geenɛ, finɛ fichii jo kijusɛ ki fi to fi kojɛ no bamii ba ntuŋ wu Nyo gɛ̀ saŋ.”Every day I was with you, teaching in the temple courts, and you did not arrest Me. But this has happened that the Scriptures would be fulfilled.”

50Booŋ ba Jiso ba ŋgoo bachii mo bo noŋ wu fo, bo fɛɛ lo.Then everyone deserted Him and fled.

51Chumu wumu bi wu le, wu baaŋ noŋ gɛ fiɛɛ ye le gɛ, wu buu gɛh nyu mwa nju ye le. Bo gɛɛŋ lɛ bo koo tɛ wu,One young man who had been following Jesus was wearing a linen cloth around his body. They caught hold of him,

52nju yiyu faanyɛ, wu chinɛ yu wu legɛ kichinɛ kiyɛsɛ.but he pulled free of the linen cloth and ran away naked.

53Bo mo bo jo Jiso, bo gɛɛŋ bɛ wu fɛ kikwɛɛ ki bachiji kintanyɛ le. Bachiji kintanyɛ ba baaŋ baaŋ bɛ bamii ba sage woŋ mo bamii ba duunyi banchi taashɛ fo.They led Jesus away to the high priest, and all the chief priests, elders, and scribes assembled.

54Bo gɛ̀ gɛɛne bɛ Jiso, Bita bii lo ajiŋ je yì ndefe le. Wu gɛɛŋ wu bu fɛ lakfulɛ chi kikwɛɛ ki bachiji kintanyɛ le, wu shii bɛ bamii ba gɛ̀ chiɛɛne la chiyu bo tu bo yɛse ŋgu.Peter followed Him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest. And he sat with the officers and warmed himself by the fire.

55Bachiji kintanyɛ ba baaŋ baaŋ bɛ bamii bachii ba gɛ̀ sage bansa tu bo goone mwɛɛ mu bo kooyi yi Jiso le mu lé no mû ge ba yûuyɛ lo wu. Geenɛ, bo gɛ̀ baaŋ yɛŋ gɛ fiɛɛ le gɛ.Now the chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were seeking testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, but they did not find any.

56Bamii ba duude bɛɛ jiŋ yi nsa wu chimbiaŋ kune Jiso. Geenɛ, muh jɛme gɛ fiɛɛ fì too fi kooji bɛ fi muh mu gɛ.For many bore false witness against Jesus, but their testimony was inconsistent.

57Bamii bamu gɛ̀ ja bo lɛɛŋ we, bo chu chiboo chimbiaŋ ye ye le bo jɛmɛ lɛ,Then some men stood up and testified falsely against Him:

58“Bee chi be yu wu duu lɛ wu lé wu gê wu sâ yeh yi kintanyɛ yinɛ yì jonɛ muh wu wuŋ, wu jo aju atade, wu kaasɛ wu jooŋ yimi, jonɛ gɛ muh wu wuŋ gɛ.”“We heard Him say, ‘I will destroy this man-made temple, and in three days I will build another that is made without hands.’”

59Mo no bo gɛ̀ jɛme noo, njɛmɛ wuboo too gɛ wù kooji gɛ.But even their testimony was inconsistent.

60Kikwɛɛ ki bachiji kintanyɛ mo ki ja ki lɛɛŋ we a bamii fwe, ki biih Jiso le lɛ, “Gɛ wo kɛme fiɛɛ fì wo chvuu gɛ? Wo yuge gɛ̀ mwɛɛ mù bamii banɛ kooyi ye yo le?”So the high priest stood up before them and questioned Jesus, “Have You no answer? What are these men testifying against You?”

61Jiso mɛ gɛh jwe wuchile, wu gɛ chvuu fiɛɛ gɛ. Kikwɛɛ ki bachiji kintanyɛ ka ki biih Jiso le lɛ, “Le wo wu le Mbvusɛ wù Nyo gɛ̀ ka wu le Mwa Nyo, Nyo wù ba yuuse?”But Jesus remained silent and made no reply. Again the high priest questioned Him, “Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?”

62Jiso chvuu lɛ, “Le mɛ. Bɛŋ lé bɛŋ yɛ̂ŋ no muh wù jee che le Mwamuh shii a kibo kinchiɛɛŋ ki Muh wù Kɛme Bvuŋga, bɛŋ ka bɛŋ yɛŋ no wu too yi kimbɛ le fɛwe.”“I am,” said Jesus, “and you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power and coming with the clouds of heaven.”

63Kikwɛɛ ki bachiji kintanyɛ yu noo, wu saayɛ njú ye, wu biih lɛ, “Fiɛɛ baaŋ yu fì besabɛŋ ka be goone lɛ muh lɛɛŋ fɛnɛ wu jɛmɛ, lɛ la?At this, the high priest tore his clothes and declared, “Why do we need any more witnesses?

64Gɛ bɛŋ yu no wu jode kijusɛ ki Nyo gɛ? Bɛŋ jɛme lɛ la?” Bamii bachii mo bo suunɛ lɛ wu le muh wu ba yuuyɛ lo.You have heard the blasphemy. What is your verdict?” And they all condemned Him as deserving of death.

65Bamii bamu kɛ bo chuuyi nchwɛne yi Jiso le, bo kaaŋ ajii awe, bo tu bo kfuunyi wu bɛ muŋko, bo duu lɛ, “Gɛh gêe la muh wu ntuŋ wu Nyo kuŋ mɛɛse.” Bamii ba nchi gɛ̀ ja bo jo Jiso bo kɛ bo suŋe.Then some of them began to spit on Him. They blindfolded Him, struck Him with their fists, and said to Him, “Prophesy!” And the officers received Him with slaps in His face.

66No Bita gɛ̀ bee je akuu akuu fɛ lakfulɛ, mwa wù kwɛse wu gɛ̀ lɛne fɛ la chi kikwɛɛ ki bachiji kintanyɛ le ja wu to mbebe ye le.While Peter was in the courtyard below, one of the servant girls of the high priest came down

67No wu yɛŋ Bita le wu yɛse ŋgu, wu bijɛ wu nɛ tuŋŋ, wu jɛmɛ lɛ, “Wo tɛ be bee bena Jiso muh wu Nasalɛ wege.”and saw him warming himself there. She looked at Peter and said, “You also were with Jesus the Nazarene.”

68Bita faŋ, wu jɛmɛ lɛ, “Gɛ ŋkee fiɛɛ fì wo jɛme finɛ gɛ. Gɛ ŋkee gɛ.” No wu jɛmɛ noo, wu mo wu ja fo wu gɛɛne fɛ jwe wu kitaŋ le, nyishii mo yi toŋ.But he denied it. “I do not know or even understand what you are talking about,” he said. Then he went out to the gateway, and the rooster crowed.

69Mwa wù kwɛse wɛɛ ka wu yɛŋ wu le, wu jɛmɛ bamii ba gɛ̀ lɛme fo le lɛ, “Muh wunɛ le muh mu a bo ntɛnɛɛ.”There the servant girl saw him and again said to those standing nearby, “This man is one of them.”

70Bita ka wu faŋ. Kife gɛ̀ doo ki kɛŋsɛ shige, bamii ba gɛ̀ lɛme fo ka bo jɛmɛ Bita le lɛ, “Le nchiɛɛŋ lɛ wo le muh wuboo, nje wo le tɛ muh wu Galalee.”But he denied it again. After a little while, those standing nearby said once more to Peter, “Surely you are one of them, for you too are a Galilean.”

71Bita mo wu kaŋ, wu tɛɛŋ loŋ yi kikwɛɛ ke le wu jɛmɛ lɛ, “Gɛ ŋkee muh wunɛ wu bɛŋ jɛme kune wu gɛ.”But he began to curse and swear, “I do not know this man of whom you speak!”

72Kimimia nyishii mo yi toŋ kiŋgane kinfɛɛ. Wu mo wu kwajɛ njɛmɛ wù Jiso be jɛmɛ wu le lɛ, “Nyishii lé yi gê yi tôŋ kiŋgane kinfɛɛ, a wo faŋ wa mɛ kiŋgane kintɛde.” Wu mo wu kɛsɛ kwe wu tu wu beede.And immediately the rooster crowed a second time. Then Peter remembered the word that Jesus had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times.” And he broke down and wept.
