Matthew 26 (WJA)

1Pu Yesu mata ce̱gu̱ to̱o̱ yi̱ri̱ngi̱ mwa mwa, a sa kwati̱mba ya ki̱n,When Jesus had finished saying all these things, He told His disciples,

2<<Bu so̱ma mi̱n Waandi Yerigu a du daa ro̱p, nu̱wa nyi̱i̱ we̱i̱ Bo̱l Ne̱re̱ nu̱wa ba pi̱i̱na ye̱u̱.>>“You know that the Passover is two days away, and the Son of Man will be handed over to be crucified.”

3A dwii jo̱re̱ bagi̱raa kuruwa yi̱ bagi̱raa nu̱wa wa, pma ku̱ranga bu̱ri̱ caame̱ bagi̱ra kuruwa, wu dini ye̱i̱ Kayapa,At that time the chief priests and elders of the people assembled in the courtyard of the high priest, whose name was Caiaphas,

4pma ci̱pa bu̱ri̱ di̱ngi̱n ba taa Yesu tukugi ba ji yo̱.and they conspired to arrest Jesus covertly and kill Him.

5Anda pma ce̱ ki̱n, <<Yaa jo̱r Waandi Yerigi, daakal nu̱wa ba wun kwai.>>“But not during the feast,” they said, “or there may be a riot among the people.”

6Pu Yesu wo̱o̱ Betani a mi̱ri̱nggi̱ laa Simon wu wo̱o̱ yi̱ butangi nang,While Jesus was in Bethany in the home of Simon the Leper,

7nu̱re̱ wu kangge̱ baa yi̱ kukulo wu yi̱ nunggu ku yi̱ pi̱rcu̱ wang ku run teng, a parman yo̱ dwii pu wo̱o̱ je̱gu̱ je̱e̱ndi̱.a woman came to Him with an alabaster jar of expensive perfume, which she poured on His head as He reclined at the table.

8Pu kwati̱mba ya ko̱ to̱o̱ yi̱to̱, pma bwiyanga gaanggu̱, pma ce̱ ki̱n, <<Wo̱o̱ kwala yo̱ ca?When the disciples saw this, they were indignant and asked, “Why this waste?

9Nunggu ko̱o̱ nu̱wa na cuu yo̱ yi̱ ke̱n tum ba nyi̱i̱ baku̱u̱lu̱wa.>>This perfume could have been sold at a high price, and the money given to the poor.”

10Yesu so̱m tu pma ce̱gu̱, a sa pma ki̱n, <<Di̱ngi̱n ca bu do̱ma yi̱ nu̱re̱ wo̱o̱ a dwii yi̱ri̱ tu nyaayi tu ni̱ngangi̱nai̱?Aware of this, Jesus asked, “Why are you bothering this woman? She has done a beautiful deed to Me.

11Bu bo̱o̱ yi̱ baku̱u̱lu̱wa kem yi̱ mba kana pe̱ne̱, anda yaa ku n si̱i̱ we̱i̱ kem yi̱ mba kana pe̱ne̱.The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have Me.

12Pari̱nggu̱ nunggu ku run teng ku pari̱ngi̱na bu̱ri̱ ko̱o̱, a ci̱pi̱gu̱ mu bo̱nggo̱ bo̱o̱re̱.By pouring this perfume on Me, she has prepared My body for burial.

13N wo̱o̱ sagu̱mbi̱ru̱ ji̱re̱, kana pi̱yau̱ pu nu̱wa wasi̱ru̱ we̱i̱ ci̱ye̱i̱ du teng di̱na a si̱ma mwa mwa, nu̱wa ce̱ we̱i̱ tu ni̱ngai̱ di̱ngi̱n danggi̱gu̱ yi̱ yo̱.>>Truly I tell you, wherever this gospel is preached in all the world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her.”

14A dwii jo̱re̱ wu wiino cu̱du̱ bu kwati̱mba ya bu kwap su̱r ro̱p bwii, wu dini ye̱i̱ Yahuda Iskariyoti a aara bo̱nggo̱ bagi̱raa kuruwa wa,Then one of the Twelve, the one called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests

15a sa pma ki̱n, <<Tu bu nyi̱i̱nggu̱ we̱i̱ ca ka n di̱n yo̱ war mbi̱ri̱?>> Pma ce̱ ke̱n asurpa kuna kunong nyi̱i̱ yo̱.and asked, “What are you willing to give me if I hand Him over to you?” And they set out for him thirty pieces of silver.

16Yake̱ do̱o̱ jo̱re̱, Yahuda kasa nyindi su yo̱ cuuru we̱i̱ yo̱.So from then on Judas looked for an opportunity to betray Jesus.

17A nyanggu̱ ku gawu̱ri̱yo̱ a Waandi Burodi wu yaa Yisti, kwati̱mba Yesu wa baanga pi̱ra ki̱n, <<Ma kasi̱ yi me̱ne̱nga je̱e̱ndi̱ Waandi Yerigi pi̱yau̱ di̱ngi̱n mo̱?>>On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?”

18A nyi̱i̱ le̱e̱ ki̱n, <<Bu ambi̱ra gwe̱i̱ bo̱nggo̱ ne̱re̱ wu kangge̱ bu se̱e̱ mi̱n, <Ku̱lu̱m ce̱ ki̱n: Jo̱r mi ni̱nga ne̱m. N je̱ we̱i̱ Waandi Yerigi kem yi̱ kwati̱mba mu wa a laa mau.>>He answered, “Go into the city to a certain man and tell him that the Teacher says, ‘My time is near. I will keep the Passover with My disciples at your house.’”

19Kwati̱mba ya bwii ni̱nga ci̱ka ku Yesu sa pma ba ni̱nga, pma me̱ne̱nga Waandi Yerigi.So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover.

20Pu nyambi̱ranggu̱ ni̱nga, Yesu si̱ si̱yau̱ aari̱ je̱gu̱ je̱e̱ndi̱ kem yi̱ kwati̱mba ya kwap su̱r ro̱p.When evening came, Jesus was reclining with the twelve disciples.

21Pu pma bo̱o̱ je̱gu̱ je̱e̱ndi̱, a ce̱ ki̱n, <<N wo̱o̱ sagu̱mbi̱ru̱ ji̱re̱, wu wiino cu̱du̱ mbi̱ri̱ cuunggu we̱i̱.>>And while they were eating, He said to them, “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray Me.”

22Pma bwiyanga gaanggu̱, pma toso sagu̱ yo̱ wiino, wiino ki̱n, <<Mbaa Wu Gi̱ra, wii mi ne̱?>>They were deeply grieved and began to ask Him one after another, “Surely not I, Lord?”

23Yesu nyi̱i̱ le̱e̱ ki̱n, <<Wu diini wai yo̱u̱ mi̱ri̱nggi̱ panane̱ kem yi̱ mi cuunggu we̱i̱.Jesus answered, “The one who has dipped his hand into the bowl with Me will betray Me.

24Bo̱l Ne̱re̱ bwaaru̱ we̱i̱ ci̱ka ku balgi̱ a dwii ye̱i̱, anda to̱o̱ yi̱ri̱ bunam bo̱nggo̱ ne̱re̱ wu cuu Bo̱l Ne̱re̱, kujang ku nu̱wa na bi bu yo̱.>>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.”

25Yahuda wu yo̱ cuuru we̱i̱ yo̱ a ce̱ ki̱n, <<Ku̱lu̱me̱, wii mi ru?>> Yesu nyi̱i̱ le̱e̱ ki̱n, <<O̱ng ma ce̱.>>Then Judas, who would betray Him, said, “Surely not I, Rabbi?” Jesus answered, “You have said it yourself.”

26Pu pma bo̱o̱ je̱gu̱ je̱e̱ndi̱, Yesu de̱e̱ ku̱maa, a wananga Yamba, a ge̱le̱nga, a nyi̱i̱ kwati̱mba ya, a ce̱ ki̱n, <<Bu yi̱ya bu je̱e̱, to̱o̱ bu̱ri̱ mi.>>While they were eating, Jesus took bread, spoke a blessing and broke it, and gave it to the disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is My body.”

27Pero a de̱e̱ bo̱so̱ro̱ gundu inabi, a wananga Yamba, a nyi̱i̱ pma, a ce̱ ki̱n, <<Mwa mwa bu naa mi̱ri̱.Then He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you.

28To̱o̱ ti̱i̱ma muwa, bu twanga tu Yamba kwe̱e̱ yi̱ nu̱wa ya, bu pardu̱ we̱i̱ si̱ye̱i̱ bu̱ri̱ di̱ngi̱n pargu̱ sukom we̱le̱mdi̱ nu̱wa tum.This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.

29N wo̱o̱ sagu̱mbi̱ru̱, yaa ku n peru we̱i̱ naagu gundu inabi ko̱po̱ kwii nyanggu̱ ku n naa we̱i̱ ku pu̱cu̱ kem yi̱ mba a Lau̱ Mbaa mu.>>I tell you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it anew with you in My Father’s kingdom.”

30Go̱ro̱ pu pma pi̱i̱ pi̱i̱ pma mwatanga Ci̱ngu̱ Souri Setun.And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

31Go̱ro̱ yi̱to̱ Yesu sa pma ki̱n, <<Yi̱ kum wunaa mwa mwa mbi̱ru̱ bu nyi̱nggu̱ we̱i̱ go̱ro̱u̱, di̱ngi̱n balgi̱ mi̱ri̱nggi̱ lakargar Yamba ki̱n, <N buu we̱i̱ taage̱, n jiyo, kan puuri we̱e̱nu̱ we̱i̱.Then Jesus said to them, “This very night you will all fall away on account of Me. For it is written: ‘I will strike the Shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’

32Anda go̱ro̱ pu n wuni n cwii we̱i̱ gawu̱r mbi̱ri̱ n anggi̱ Galili.>>But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”

33Bitrus nyi̱i̱ le̱e̱ ki̱n, <<Kana, kana we̱ waatu̱ we̱i̱ bu̱ri̱ yi̱ go̱ro̱u̱ di̱ngi̱n mo̱, mi yaa ku n waatu̱ we̱i̱.>>Peter said to Him, “Even if all fall away on account of You, I never will.”

34Yesu se̱e̱ ki̱n, <<Bitrus, n wo̱o̱ sagu̱mo̱u̱ ji̱re̱, a kum wunaa kami̱n ko̱lo̱o̱ ba te̱e̱ te̱e̱re̱ ma gwe̱le̱nggu̱ we̱i̱ daa kunong.>>“Truly I tell you,” Jesus declared, “this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.”

35Anda Bitrus ce̱ ki̱n, <<Kana n bo̱o̱ru̱ we̱i̱ kem yi̱ mo̱, yaa ku n gwe̱le̱mi̱nu̱ we̱i̱>> Pero mwa mwa kwati̱mba ya bu kangga bwii mwaasi̱ ce̱ yi̱to̱.Peter replied, “Even if I have to die with You, I will never deny You.” And all the other disciples said the same thing.

36Go̱ro̱ yi̱to̱ Yesu mwati̱ kem yi̱ kwati̱mba ya a pu nu̱wa yi̱ri̱ ki̱n, Gesimani, a sa pma ki̱n, <<Bu si̱ndi̱ si̱ye̱i̱ pi̱na mi n ko̱ n songge gawu̱re̱ n ce̱ ku̱ru̱.>>Then Jesus went with His disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and He told them, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.”

37A de̱e̱ Bitrus yi̱ kwaraa Sabadi bu ro̱p kem yi̱ yo̱, a toso bwiyang gaanggu̱ yi̱ mi̱yanggu̱ bu̱ru̱.He took with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee and began to be sorrowful and deeply distressed.

38A sa pma ki̱n, <<Bawei mi twangi yi̱ bwiyang gaanggu̱ ci̱ka n bwaa. Bu si̱ndi̱ si̱yandi̱ pi̱na bu si̱ya ci̱pi̱gi̱ bu̱ri̱ kem yi̱ mi.>>Then He said to them, “My soul is consumed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with Me.”

39A kosuro banyi̱na a yara, a suni kau si̱ma, a ce̱ ku̱ru̱ ki̱n, <<Mbaa mi, ka ni̱ndu̱ wai we̱i̱ mo̱ de̱mangi̱n ki̱na cu̱su̱gu̱. Anda dangandi̱ mi ne̱, anda to̱o̱ mai.>>Going a little farther, He fell facedown and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me. Yet not as I will, but as You will.”

40A waata bo̱nggo̱ kwati̱mba ya baa nyi̱ngga pma diimandi, a pi̱ra Bitrus ki̱n, <<Yaa ku bu puu we̱i̱ bu si̱ya ci̱pi̱gi̱ bu̱ri̱ kem yi̱ mi nyan jo̱r banyi̱na ru?Then Jesus returned to the disciples and found them sleeping. “Were you not able to keep watch with Me for one hour?” He asked Peter.

41Bu si̱ya ci̱pi̱gi̱ bu̱ri̱, bu ce̱ ku̱ru̱ daakal bu yanna miyam. Bawei kasi̱gu̱ anda bu̱ri̱ yaa di̱mbi̱re̱.>>“Watch and pray so that you will not enter into temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak.”

42A mwati̱ ku ro̱p a ce̱ ku̱ru̱ ki̱n, <<Mbaa mi, ka yaa ku ni̱ndu̱ we̱i̱ ko̱o̱ cu̱su̱gu̱ ba lamana ko̱po̱ ka n cu̱si̱, yama dangandi̱ mai ba ni̱ngwa.>>A second time He went away and prayed, “My Father, if this cup cannot pass unless I drink it, may Your will be done.”

43Pu waatau a nyi̱ngga pma diimandi do̱ng, di̱ngi̱n nundi pma ni̱nga ko̱mbi̱ro̱m.And again Jesus returned and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.

44A du pma a waata bu̱ri̱ do̱ng, a ce̱ ku̱ru̱ ku kunong a pero tu co̱nggo̱ ci̱ye̱i̱.So He left them and went away once more and prayed a third time, saying the same thing.

45Pero a waata bu̱ri̱ bo̱nggo̱ kwati̱mba ya a sa pma ki̱n, <<Bo̱o̱ bu bo̱o̱ diimandi ru? Bu yo̱ro̱nggu̱ ru? Su̱wa jo̱r ni̱nga nu̱wa cuu Bo̱l Ne̱re̱ a war nu̱wa bu yi̱ we̱le̱mdi̱ wa.Then He returned to the disciples and said, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Look, the hour is near, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

46Bu wunongo yi mwatanga! Ne̱re̱ wu cuugu mu wii wo̱o̱ bagu̱!>>Rise, let us go! See, My betrayer is approaching!”

47Pu bo̱o̱ Yesu wo̱o̱ ce̱gu̱ ci̱ye̱u̱, Yahuda wu wiino cu̱du̱ bu kwap su̱r ro̱p bwii lamuwe kem yi̱ nu̱wa tum yi̱ do̱mpo̱u̱ri̱ yi̱ gu̱mo̱ngi̱, bu bagi̱raa kuruwa wa yi̱ bagi̱raa nu̱wa wa tu̱mu̱we̱.While Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived, accompanied by a large crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests and elders of the people.

48Yo̱ wu ne̱re̱ wu cuuru we̱i̱ a ru somdi tu pma ku̱ranu̱ we̱i̱ ki̱n, <<Ne̱re̱ wu ku̱u̱na bu̱ri̱ wii yo̱, bu te̱e̱.>>Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: “The One I kiss is the man; arrest Him.”

49Ku pma lama, yo̱ko̱ yo̱ko̱ Yahuda aara bo̱nggo̱ Yesu se̱e̱ ki̱n, <<N ci̱ mi̱na ku̱lu̱me̱,>> pero a ku̱u̱nu̱ yo̱ bu̱ri̱.Going directly to Jesus, he said, “Greetings, Rabbi!” and kissed Him.

50Yesu nyi̱i̱ le̱e̱ ki̱n, <<Basi̱n mi, ni̱nga tu de̱mu̱we̱.>> Nu̱wa bwii twiyongo parnu̱ wari̱ taa Yesu.“Friend,” Jesus replied, “do what you came for.” Then the men stepped forward, seized Jesus, and arrested Him.

51Ku ni̱ngwa yi̱to̱, wu wiino cu̱du̱ barauwa Yesu a yaku wai a podo do̱mpo̱u̱ yo̱u̱ a kaca twiyau ke̱we̱ bagi̱ra kuruwa a mwari̱ya.At this, one of Jesus’ companions drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his ear.

52Yesu se̱ ki̱n, <<Pu̱n do̱mpo̱u̱ mo̱u̱ mi̱ri̱nggi̱ laa yo̱u̱, di̱ngi̱n wu podo do̱mpo̱u̱ bo̱o̱ri̱ do̱mpo̱u̱.“Put your sword back in its place,” Jesus said to him. “For all who draw the sword will die by the sword.

53Ma nu̱u̱ mi̱n n pu yi̱gu̱ Mbaa mi, ba suka bacamandi tum yo̱ko̱ ki̱na ru?Are you not aware that I can call on My Father, and He will at once put at My disposal more than twelve legions of angels?

54Anda ka n ni̱ng yi̱to̱, ci̱ye̱i̱ De̱mte̱e̱re̱ du ce̱ ki̱n, tagi̱ ba ni̱ngwa yi̱to̱, ni̱ndu̱ we̱i̱ nye̱ ba twangwa?>>But how then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that say it must happen this way?”

55A dwii jo̱re̱ Yesu sa nu̱wa bu tum bwii ki̱n, <<Di̱ngi̱n ca bu baanga yi̱ do̱mpo̱u̱ri̱ yi̱ gu̱mo̱ngi̱ bu tangge̱ ci̱ka n kuwe? Kana ko̱no̱ nyanggu̱ n si̱i̱ laa Yambau̱ n pi̱rgu̱ yi̱ri̱ nu̱wa anda bu tanggu̱ bu.At that time Jesus said to the crowd, “Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest Me as you would an outlaw? Every day I sat teaching in the temple courts, and you did not arrest Me.

56Anda to̱o̱ mwa mwa a ni̱ngwa palaka ba twanga tu banabi̱ndi̱ bala ki̱n ni̱ndu̱ we̱i̱.>> Kwati̱mba ya mwa mwa du yo̱ a ceendo.But this has all happened so that the writings of the prophets would be fulfilled.” Then all the disciples deserted Him and fled.

57Nu̱wa bu ta Yesu wa a de̱e̱ yo̱ bo̱nggo̱ Kayapa kuru wu gi̱ra pu ku̱lu̱mba te̱e̱ri̱ngi̱ wa yi̱ bagi̱raa Yudaya wa ku̱ranga bu̱ri̱.Those who had arrested Jesus led Him away to the house of Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and elders had gathered.

58Anda Bitrus po̱ng yo̱ gantin, a lama bo̱nggo̱ laa kuru wu gi̱ra . A diiro si̱n si̱ye̱i̱ kem yi̱ nu̱wa bu swe̱ri̱gu̱ yo̱ wa ba ko̱ tu ni̱ndu̱ we̱i̱ bu̱ri̱.But Peter followed Him at a distance, right up to the courtyard of the high priest. And he went in and sat down with the guards to see the outcome.

59Bagi̱ra kuruwa yi̱ bagi̱raa nu̱wa bu Yudaya wa mwa mwa pma kasi̱gu̱ se̱e̱daki̱ leendu a dwii Yesu palaka pma ba ji yo̱.Now the chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were seeking false testimony against Jesus in order to put Him to death.

60Anda pma nyi̱ngga bu kana ca, kana ku baleenda twiyongo. Cwata go̱ro̱ yo̱u̱ nu̱wa ro̱p twiyongo,But they did not find any, though many false witnesses came forward. Finally two came forward

61a ce̱ ki̱n, <<Ne̱re̱ wo̱o̱ ce̱ ki̱n, <N puu we̱i̱ bwiyanggu laa Yambau̱ n mwe̱ nyan daa kunong.>>>and declared, “This man said, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God and rebuild it in three days.’”

62Bur bagi̱ra kuruwa wii wuni a sa Yesu ki̱n, <<Yaa ku ma nyi̱i̱ we̱i̱ le̱e̱ a dwii we̱le̱ce̱u̱ wu nu̱wa bo̱o̱ ce̱gu̱ a dwii ru?>>So the high priest stood up and asked Him, “Have You no answer? What are these men testifying against You?”

63Yesu si̱n si̱ye̱i̱ to̱k. Bagi̱ra kuruwa wii sa yo̱ ki̱n, <<N ne̱ca mi̱na yi̱ Yamba wii yi̱ pi̱i̱ma yi̱ we̱ra sa yiro ka ma Masiya Bo̱l Yamba wai.>>But Jesus remained silent. Then the high priest said to Him, “I charge You under oath by the living God: Tell us if You are the Christ, the Son of God.”

64Yesu nyi̱i̱ le̱e̱ ki̱n, <<O̱ng ci̱ka ku ma ce̱ ko̱o̱, anda n wo̱o̱ sagu̱mbi̱ru̱ pi̱na yi̱ gawu̱re̱ bu kwe̱e̱ we̱i̱ Bo̱l Ne̱re̱ pi̱su̱ a wai wu je̱u̱ Yambau̱ wu yi̱ Di̱mbi̱re̱ a bagu̱ mi̱ri̱nggu̱ tinendi a diyou.>>“You have said it yourself,” Jesus answered. “But I say to all of you, from now on you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power and coming on the clouds of heaven.”

65Bagi̱ra kuruwa wii pwaranga se̱e̱ yo̱ di̱ngi̱n ba ju̱ku̱ bwiyan gaanggu̱ yo̱u̱, a ce̱ ki̱n, <<A ce̱ ce̱wi̱ bwiyangi din Yambai̱! Di̱ngi̱n ca yi kasi̱gu̱ se̱e̱daki̱ wu kangge̱ do̱ng? Su̱wa, yo̱ko̱ bu nu̱u̱ ko̱o̱ bwiyangu din Yambau̱.At this, the high priest tore his clothes and declared, “He has blasphemed! Why do we need any more witnesses? Look, now you have heard the blasphemy.

66Bu ce̱ mi̱n ca? Pma le̱e̱man yo̱ ki̱n, <<A yinno bo̱o̱re̱!>>What do you think?” “He deserves to die,” they answered.

67Bur pma tuuman yo̱ ti̱i̱ma kau, pero cumongo. Bu kangga kapanga yo̱.Then they spit in His face and struck Him. Others slapped Him

68A ce̱ ki̱n, <<Masiya, ka ma banabi̱ wai, sa yiro, wu buu mi̱na we̱?>>and said, “Prophesy to us, Christ! Who hit You?”

69Bitrus wo̱o̱ pi̱su̱ mi̱ri̱nggi̱ laa kuru wu bagi̱ra , bur bwe̱e̱canga wu kangge̱ wu twii ke̱we̱ baa bo̱nggo̱ yo̱ ce̱ ki̱n, <<Mo̱ mwaasi̱ ma wo̱o̱ kem yi̱ Yesu ne̱re̱ wu Galili.>>Meanwhile, Peter was sitting out in the courtyard, and a servant girl came up to him. “You also were with Jesus the Galilean,” she said.

70Anda a gwe̱la yo̱ a gawu̱ru̱ pmai mwa mwa ki̱n, <<N so̱m bu tu ma ce̱gi̱.>>But he denied it before them all: “I do not know what you are talking about.”

71Pu twiyo nyinou, bwe̱e̱canga wu kangge̱ wu twii ke̱we̱ ko̱ yo̱, a sa nu̱wa bu pwii bwii ki̱n, <<Wuna ne̱re̱ wo̱o̱ kem yi̱ Yesu wu Nasaret.>>When Peter had gone out to the gateway, another servant girl saw him and said to the people there, “This man was with Jesus of Nazareth.”

72A gwe̱la do̱ng, a we̱re̱nga ce̱ ki̱n, <<N so̱m bu wo̱o̱ ne̱re̱.>>And again he denied it with an oath: “I do not know the man!”

73Go̱ro̱u̱ banyi̱na pma bu pi̱ti̱ndi̱ pwii bwii aanda bo̱nggo̱ Bitrus a ce̱ ki̱n, <<Manggu, ma wo̱o̱ cu̱du̱ pmai, di̱ngi̱n miu ce̱ mo̱u̱ a ju̱ku̱ya.>>After a little while, those standing nearby came up to Peter. “Surely you are one of them,” they said, “for your accent gives you away.”

74A toso we̱re̱nggu̱ ki̱n, <<Bwi̱i̱ge̱ ba tangge̱ ka n ce̱gu̱ leendi wai, n so̱m bu ne̱re̱ wo̱o̱.>> Ki̱no̱ngu̱ ko̱lo̱o̱ te̱e̱ te̱e̱re̱.At that he began to curse and swear to them, “I do not know the man!” And immediately a rooster crowed.

75Bitrus dangga tu Yesu sa yo̱, <<Kami̱n ko̱lo̱o̱ ba te̱e̱ te̱e̱re̱, ma gwe̱le̱nggu̱ we̱i̱ daa kunong mi̱n ma so̱nggu̱ bu.>> A twiyo twalange̱, a ji windi wang.Then Peter remembered the word that Jesus had spoken: “Before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.” And he went outside and wept bitterly.
