Luke 5 (PLJ) · Opened

1Gasi gon kan, Yesu ra bi ɓula Jenesaratawo, mbarǝm na womti ra kar ti, wu den kumi shirǝm kǝ Yami.On one occasion, while Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret with the crowd pressing in on Him to hear the word of God,

2Ar ni Yesu shin kungǝlǝn jikat mal rop bi ɓula'i, mǝn nǝmi kos ni za lasi, wu den ho'i bar kǝ nǝmi kos gǝzǝnka.He saw two boats at the edge of the lake. The fishermen had left them and were washing their nets.

3Kano Yesu ba to gip kungǝlǝn jikat mal kǝ Siman, nǝm gip mǝn nǝmi kos ju, kan tǝ wul ti'e tǝ dǝl ti te gip malika njem. Ar ni tǝ dǝm gipi. Kan tǝ kulci mbarǝme.Jesus got into the boat belonging to Simon and asked him to put out a little from shore. And sitting down, He taught the people from the boat.

4Nan tǝ pa'i shirǝmo, ar ni tǝ wul Siman'e, <<Te kungǝlǝn jikat mali kǝ ba dlyami male, kan kǝ la bar kǝ nǝmi kos gi kǝ dǝ kǝ nǝm kose.>>When Jesus had finished speaking, He said to Simon, “Put out into deep water and let down your nets for a catch.”

5Ar ni Siman wul ti'e, <<Babomi, mǝ pa mi kǝ gas kup ɗewi, ko nǝm mǝ nǝm argon da'a, kup na untu, tun kan kǝ yari untuwo, naa la bar kǝ nǝmi kosi suka.>>“Master,” Simon replied, “we have worked hard all night without catching anything. But because You say so, I will let down the nets.”

6Nan wu la bar kǝ nǝmi kosi sukawo, kan wu nǝm kos na womti, ar kem bar kǝ nǝmi kos gǝzǝn ba nǝm tlyattǝnka.When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to tear.

7Nan wu shin untuwo, kan wu yiɓǝti ezǝn am kan ra gip kungǝlǝn jikat mali gon gwa, dǝ wu ɗir ne wur amra, nan wu ɗiro, ar ni wu la'i kungǝlǝn jikat mali kup pa rop, bar tuwo kungǝlǝn jikat mal gǝzǝn ba nǝm sitǝnka gǝs male na giɓǝrtǝn kǝ womti kose.So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.

8Nan Siman Bitrus shin untuwo, ar ni tǝ ngus cina dǝ Yesu, tǝ wul ti'e, <<Za ǝm kǝ ndara, Babomi, ami mǝn warwat pitǝn ni!>>When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees. “Go away from me, Lord,” he said, “for I am a sinful man.”

9Siman na berǝm nǝmi kos gǝs kupo, ar dlikǝn wur den womtitǝn kǝ kos ju kan wu nǝm unju gwa.For he and his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken,

10Untun ga Yakubu na Yohana, mimir kǝ Zabadi, berǝm mbap kǝ Siman ar dlǝkǝn wur pa'e. Kano Yesu ba wul ti'e, <<Ba kǝ kum bǝrti da'a, cina ɗewo mbarǝm ni ki nǝmi.>>and so were his partners James and John, the sons of Zebedee. “Do not be afraid,” Jesus said to Simon. “From now on you will catch men.”

11Ar ni wu dǝl kungǝlǝn jikat mal gǝzǝn tor den bishidi, wu za kup bar ju wi ra nari gwa, kan wu kop ti.And when they had brought their boats ashore, they left everything and followed Him.

12Nan Yesu ra gip bǝn gono, mbarǝm gon ra kan ndǝcci ci ti narka gwa. Nan tǝ shin Yesuwo, ar ni tǝ nda cina da ti na ba ger gǝs su atlka tǝ lir ti tǝ wule, <<Babomi, in kin kǝ ndu'o ki mani warke gǝni.>>While Jesus was in one of the towns, a man came along who was covered with leprosy. When he saw Jesus, he fell facedown and begged Him, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”

13Kano Yesu ba ta am gǝs tǝ ne den ti, tǝ wul ti'e, <<A ndu'i, da'i warke!>> Ar ri kǝti gon da'a arni ndicciyi za ti.Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him.

14Pi untuwo, ar ni Yesu wul ti'e, <<Ba kǝ yari murgon da'a! Ama ri kar ga Lǝɓa kǝ Yam wu shin ki, kan kǝ bi bar ju kan Musa wule dǝ bi kǝ bi ho'i ndǝccika gwa, untu ni mbarǝm ba shin ki kǝ'i na ndǝcci da'a.>>“Do not tell anyone,” Jesus instructed him. “But go, show yourself to the priest and present the offering Moses prescribed for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”

15Kup na untuwo, ar ni shirǝm den ti kǝrkǝm ritǝn gip barǝm ra, kan mbarǝm na womti ba nǝm ɗirtǝn kar ti kǝ dǝ wu kum ti, kan tǝ warke munju kan ra hoyi da gwa.But the news about Jesus spread all the more, and great crowds came to hear Him and to be healed of their sicknesses.

16Yesu ngapo tǝ kur ri gǝs las ju kan mbarǝm ra hoyi da gwa kǝ dǝ tǝ shirǝm na Yami.Yet He frequently withdrew to the wilderness to pray.

17Gasi gon kan Yesu ra den kulci mbarǝmo, ar ni mǝn Parise na mǝn kulci mbarǝm doka kǝ Musa, munju kan ɗǝl ɗir gip mir bǝn kǝ Galili kup na kǝ Yahudiya na gip bǝn Urushalima ra njon njon lasi. Iko kǝ Babom ra nan ti kǝ dǝ tǝ warke mbarǝme.One day Jesus was teaching, and the Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there. People had come from Jerusalem and from every village of Galilee and Judea, and the power of the Lord was present for Him to heal the sick.

18Kan mbarǝm jen ba ɗir na gon kan itǝr tle tika gwa ra ɓom den ba muri gǝsi, wu ndu te gǝs gip bom las tu kan Yesu ra gwa.Just then some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They tried to bring him inside to set him before Jesus,

19Wu zam tǝp da'a, nan mbarǝm womtika gwa, ar ni wu to den rupi kǝ bomi kan wu tul shu wu ne mbarǝmi suka gip dlom kǝ mbarǝm ju den bamuri gǝs cina dǝ Yesu.but they could not find a way through the crowd. So they went up on the roof and lowered him on his mat through the tiles into the middle of the crowd, right in front of Jesus.

20Nan Yesu shin ngǝshtǝn gǝzǝn den yam untuwo, ar ni tǝ wule, <<Berǝm, ho'i i warwat pitǝn gi kawi.>>When Jesus saw their faith, He said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”

21Untu piwo, ar ni mǝn Parise na mǝn kulci mbarǝm doka kǝ Musa nǝm wultǝn gip mbalt gǝzǝni wu wule, <<Unu mbarǝmi ikǝn mǝn mburi Yam we? O fawo, Yam ni nan gǝs ba ho warwat pitǝnka da'a ya?>>But the scribes and Pharisees began thinking to themselves, “Who is this man who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

22Nan Yesu mom unun wu den damtǝn denewo, ar ni tǝ wul wur'e, <<Unun kem kǝ damkǝn untu rawu?Knowing what they were thinking, Jesus replied, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?

23Gongeni ban mani, dǝ wule, <Ho warwat pitǝn gi kawa,> ko dǝ wule <Tlyam kǝ ndarawe?>Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’?

24Ama kǝdǝ kǝ mom'e, Nya Mbarǝm ra na iko kǝ dǝ tǝ ho warwat pitǝnka gip duniya ni.>> Ar ni tǝ wul mbarǝm tu kan itǝr tle ti kayi gwa, <<Tlyam kǝ pǝn ba muri gi kǝ ndara bomi!>>But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on the earth to forgive sins…” He said to the paralytic, “I tell you, get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”

25Bar tuwo, arni tǝ tlyam dlor cina dawuri, tǝ pǝn ba muri gǝs cina da wuri kan tǝ ndara bomi tǝ den ɗǝɗa Yami.And immediately the man stood up before them, took what he had been lying on, and went home glorifying God.

26Ar dlǝkǝn ko gonge mbarǝme kan wu ɗǝɗa Yami. Gip bǝrti na dlǝkǝntǝn wu nǝm wultǝn'e, <<Mǝ shin bar kǝ dlǝkǝntǝnwi se kǝni.>>Everyone was taken with amazement and glorified God. They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.”

27Den kar kǝ untuwo, ar ni Yesu ɗǝli kan tǝ shin mbarǝm gon mǝn nǝmi wurpi bom kan ba wul ti'e Lawi gwa, tǝra njon kǝ ba nǝmi wurpi bomi. Ar ni Yesu wul ti'e, <<Kopǝni!>>After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him,

28Kan Lawi ba tlyam tǝ za bar ju kup tǝ ra nari gwa kan tǝ kop ti.and Levi got up, left everything, and followed Him.

29Kano Lawi ba pii Yesu bar nyel bom da ti. Lasiwo mǝn nǝmi wurpi bom na womti, na mbarǝm jen ra lasi den ci bar kǝ ci nan wuri.Then Levi hosted a great banquet for Jesus at his house. A large crowd of tax collectors was there, along with others who were eating with them.

30Ama mǝn Parisa na mǝn kulci mbarǝm doka Musa nǝm zhe'e shirǝmi, wu wul mir mǝn kulci kar ti'e, <<Ununu kem kǝn den ci na tle na mǝn nǝmi wurpi bom na mǝn warwat pitǝn rawu?>>But the Pharisees and their scribes complained to Jesus’ disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”

31Ar ni Yesu nǝmi wur tǝ wule, <<Munju kan ra hoyi ni ba ngen mǝn bi un da'a. Ama munju kan ra hoyi da gwani ba ngen mǝn bi uni.Jesus answered, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.

32A sur gip duniya kǝn kǝ dǝ a labi mǝn ho pitǝn da'a, ama mǝn warwat pitǝne dǝ wu za warwat pitǝn gǝzǝnka. >>I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”

33Kano jen ba wul Yesu'e, <<Mir mǝn kulci kar Yohana ba pi guzum mal na shirǝm na Yam ko gǝgasi, untuni es mir mǝn kulci kar mǝn Parise ba pi, ama gewo wu den ci na tle.>>Then they said to Him, “John’s disciples and those of the Pharisees frequently fast and pray, but Yours keep on eating and drinking.”

34Kano Yesu ba nǝmi wur tǝ wule, <<Kǝ shin wule ki hane berǝm kǝ mǝn pel gudlumi ci bar kǝ cika wi nǝra na mǝn pel gudlumi gwa ya?Jesus replied, “Can you make the guests of the bridegroom fast while He is with them?

35Ama pǝt baa ɗir kan ba pǝn mǝn pel gudlumi tuka kar wuri. Gip muri ja ni wi pi guzum male.>>But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.”

36Kan tǝ pa yari wur misali goni, tǝ wule, <<Murgon ra kan ba tlyati nye yadi den pel lulur kan tǝ bop den gusi da'a. Ti ni tǝ pi untuwo, ti tlyati pel lulur gǝs ka, peli tu kan tǝ bop den gusi lulur tuwo ar ba mbun da'a.He also told them a parable: “No one tears a piece of cloth from a new garment and sews it on an old one. If he does, he will tear the new garment as well, and the patch from the new will not match the old.

37Untu ni esi, murgon ba shoti pel mal kin inabi su gip kor ranka da'a. Ti ni tǝ pi untuwo, pel mal kin inabi tu ba tatl ran juka kan ar shotka, rani eso ar lika ituwi.And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the new wine will burst the skins, the wine will spill, and the wineskins will be ruined.

38Untuni da'a, pel mal kin inabiwo dǝ shot ti gip pel rani.Instead, new wine is poured into new wineskins.

39Murgon ra kan ba ndu'e tin tǝ tla gus mal kin inabiwo, kan tǝ pal tǝ tla peli ra da'a, ti wule < gusiyi njet nari.>>>And no one after drinking old wine wants new, for he says, ‘The old is better.’”
