Luke 11 (XSN) · Opened

1Ngmende Yeso ka ya beya angmǝ ka Ashili a ara. Malo oka ka mare, na ondo a nyimi atoma a kai wa bekaa kai na, “Ateokora, baala ro nangka teyo beya angmǝ ka Ashili, nangka Yohana ka o batisma ka baale ana o tare wai.”One day in a place where Jesus had just finished praying, one of His disciples requested, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.”

2Naka bekaa ne na, “Eeya beya angmǝ ka Ashili, e bekaana: “ ‘Ate, a monte leze lo a sangsang, a togomo to de a komana ka kuruwǝ.So Jesus told them, “When you pray, say: ‘Father, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come.

3Nyaro epaolya o ngmeengme ka o koonang lengme.Give us each day our daily bread.

4Pisǝ madinǝ maro, o baale ro nangka teyo pisǝ andaaka ne eze ro epa e buru, nangka bo o ezeze. Tana o baya a te lyǝ a nyimi o kedeya ne.’ ”And forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into temptation.’”

5Naka bekaa ne na, “A mana ondo ying waye ka oja, na wa ale a wai a tera lelyaare. A wa bekaana, ‘Bejaa, kopeng agwataka taaro a lya.Then Jesus said to them, “Suppose one of you goes to his friend at midnight and says, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,

6Oja ong yende wa surǝ a begere na wa japi a me, a mi naana anta ka epa o nya wai ne.’because a friend of mine has come to me on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him.’

7“A wiinea oja wai oka wa ya nyimi wata kabare na, ‘Tana o gareng ne. Ma samba o pate abuudu a ma tete ka yana ang, ma era anta ama o era kang nyau eyapa ne?’And suppose the one inside answers, ‘Do not bother me. My door is already shut, and my children and I are in bed. I cannot get up to give you anything.’

8Nyimia, eyang baalo ying, waata era ka wa nya oja o wai epaolya aza obena beja be wai ne, wayo nya wai pate epa eka waya gera me o bena wata wa kona ezǝng o gara wai ne.I tell you, even though he will not get up to provide for him because of his friendship, yet because of the man’s persistence, he will get up and give him as much as he needs.

9“Azaa nyimi eyang beya aying, bosaza na Ashili a yo nya ying, gerza na ara ai eyo cǝ, gwarazana buudu a ai a yo pari ying.So I tell you: Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.

10Pate ondooka wa bosa, a yo nya wai, pate ondooka wa gera wayo cǝ, kanza pate ondooka wa gwara abuudu a yo pari wai.For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.

11“Mana a nyimi o ying anate, ka o yana wai wa bosa bekwala, a wa nya wai owa?What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead?

12Na o yana wai wa bose lengma, a wa nya wai onyakara?Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?

13Ying ana epa e buru, e rose nangka e nyaza ayana ying epa e rere, shebari Ate ying o zaa shili wayo nya obere wai andaaka ne boseze wai.”So if you who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!”

14Yeso kaya za o sǝǝrǝ o bere o buru o nara ngmǝ oromo yende. Malo surǝ o bere o buru me, na oromo me bora o beya ngmǝ, na epame tere aromo me okpwe.One day Jesus was driving out a demon that was mute. And when the demon was gone, the man who had been mute spoke. The crowds were amazed,

15Na ana ondo one bekaana, “Kakama. Baazabul, ogomo mabere ma buru, wa ya wa nya kai legoone lo sǝǝrǝ o bere o buru.”but some of them said, “It is by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons, that He drives out demons.”

16Ana ondo kadeya Yeso, nane bekaa kai na, kaye epa e mole ka rose bena Ashili ya malo ogole o kai.And others tested Him by demanding a sign from heaven.

17Yeso ka ka rose madoola mane naka bekaa ne na: “Pate togomo teeka te arnang, teyo caro, aromo akwilǝ ne arnang akwilǝ me a yo rizi.Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself will be laid waste, and a house divided against a house will fall.

18Ogomo o bere o buru wa arnang okpwe wai, togomo te wai yo ya legoone nannia? Ma beka nyimi ko bena e bekaana ka legoone le Baazabul waya ang sǝrsǝzǝ o bere o buru.If Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom stand? After all, you say that I drive out demons by Beelzebul.

19Ma sǝrsǝzǝ o bere o buru ka legoone le Baazabul, ana o tare o ying sǝrsǝzǝ ka le mana? Nyimia waaza, ana o tare o ying neya yo core ying angmǝ me.And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.

20A ma sǝrsǝsǝ o bere o buru ka o ara Ashili, na togomo te Ashili te deya ying naname.But if I drive out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.

21“A were aka ondo legoone, wa babare okpwe wai ka magogoro ma o kara, a wa ende akwilǝ a wai, okǝri wa era awata kwǝ magogoro ma akwilǝ wai ne.When a strong man, fully armed, guards his house, his possessions are secure.

22A ondo kala wai a legoone wa deya a wa zala wai ko kara wayo kala wai, a wa jeka magogoro mo kara maaka wa eke lenyong ne a wa beshe magogoro ma oromo me.But when someone stronger attacks and overpowers him, he takes away the armor in which the man trusted, and then he divides up his plunder.

23“Ondooka wata ya lendo ka mi ne ondo nyana onnga wai, nyimia ondooka wata kurǝ ka mi ne, waya bacakara.He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.

24“Obere o buru wa suraa nyimi oromo, a wa ale a nyimi o wake a gera ara o teseke. Waata cǝ ne, a wa bekaana, ‘Eyang kurǝ ara oromo amea ma surǝ ne.’When an unclean spirit comes out of a man, it passes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’

25Wa kurǝ, wayo mana oromo omea na akwilǝ ka aya sangsang a eyapa ta rene ne.On its return, it finds the house swept clean and put in order.

26A wa yo kurǝ kawa jeke mabere ma buru o sondaare maaka ma kala o bora me ba ara a buru, kane lyǝ ba oromo me aa ne cikǝ a nyimi o wai. Nyimia o maare oromo me wayo kala o bora wai o burǝ.”Then it goes and brings seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and dwell there. And the final plight of that man is worse than the first.”

27Nangka Yeso kaya beya angmǝ name, na ondaye yende a nyimi aromo a cak bekaana, “Ondo kona o leba ondaye omea wa ngmengoo aa ba ase a wai.”As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd raised her voice and said, “Blessed is the womb that bore You, and blessed are the breasts that nursed You!”

28Na Yeso kabare na, “Wa kala a kona o leba andaaka ne kona angmǝ Ashili ane ezeze ogole ka ai.”But He replied, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.”

29Nangka aromo me ne wale o gongnga ne, na Yeso bekaana, “Lenna lepeza le burua le. Ne ya yeme a wore ne ogole o Ashili, a era ta wore ne ne sekona Yonana ondo o beya a ngmǝ ka mawo ma Ashili.As the crowds were increasing, Jesus said, “This is a wicked generation. It demands a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.

30Nangka Yonana ogole Ashili waze aromo apeng a Neneba, nyimia mi Kena ka Ashili kaze a wereena.For as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so the Son of Man will be a sign to this generation.

31Aya ogong o makeke ma o Sheba wayo era a lengme lo maare kawa beke epa eka wa rose. Ka wa bekaa aromo me na neta neeya epa e woma ne. Aza o bena wa deya awa suri a macangcang ka wa kone o rosa ogomo Suleimanu. A nannamena, ondooka wa kala Suleimanu ya arakaana pate ka nyimi eta e kona kai ne.The Queen of the South will rise at the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and now One greater than Solomon is here.

32Aromo apeng Neneba neyo itǝ a lengme lo maare kale peza le wereena kane nyane o rizi one. Ka ne kuri ara Ashili a were e ka Yonana ka baale ne ngmǝ Ashili, a nannamena ondooka wa kala Yonana ya arakana na eta e kurǝ Ashili ne.The men of Nineveh will stand at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now One greater than Jonah is here.

33“Ondo wa era wata diki biru be masanto a wa eke ara aka wayo baasa beene, koona wa pate be ka oso ne. Wayo eke ara a zaati, adorana andaaka neya lyǝzǝ akwilǝ me ane laka masanto.No one lights a lamp and puts it in a cellar or under a basket. Instead, he sets it on a stand, so those who enter can see the light.

34Liizi le oromo leya na masanto ma lepung le wai. A yizi au aya ka edang, lepung lo a pate yo ya ka masanto. A yizi me a ta rera ne, lepung lo a pate yo ya ka maringYour eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are good, your whole body also is full of light. But when they are bad, your body is full of darkness.

35Soleke na, kana masanto maaka maya ying maringnga mai ne ma lenyong.Be careful, then, that the light within you is not darkness.

36Azaa nyimi, nyimi lenyong lo leya ka masanto, lepung lo a pate masantoa yoza, a ara maring tozene ne, pate le leyo ya masanto, nangka masanto ma beru ezeze masanto a bo.”So if your whole body is full of light, with no part of it in darkness, you will be radiant, as though a lamp were shining on you.”

37Nangka Yeso ka mare o beya ngmǝ ka aromo, na oParisa yende bose kai kane ale a lya epaolya ba akwilǝ wai. Na Yeso kabare o ale naka cikǝ ara o lyeeze epaolya me.As Jesus was speaking, a Pharisee invited Him to dine with him; so He went in and reclined at the table.

38Na oParisa me, nangka wa laka Yeso aka ta ka kwizǝ taara zongka ka bore o lya epaolya ne, na epame itǝ a wai ba lenyong.But the Pharisee was surprised to see that Jesus did not first wash before the meal.

39Na Ateokora bekaa wai na, “Lakai, ying maParisa e kpwizizi malo o poto a ka oso, a nyimi me ka madinǝ, e pena ka o nyalang ka epa e buru.Then the Lord said, “Now you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness.

40Ying a rara. Ondo oka wa eze malo wa ya wa eze nyimi lenyong kanza sang?You fools! Did not the One who made the outside make the inside as well?

41Nyana andaaka ne dere epa eka eya nyimi oso me, e keeya yo ya ying ba sangsang.But give as alms the things that are within you, and behold, everything will be clean for you.

42“E lyǝ udi ying maParisa, e nyaza Ashili oyende ba nyimi be tuuru e leto, egweng kaa kombela mananggo, a e nyana o eza e epa eka eya kapo kanza ko yeme Ashili. Eeyo eza o maare ka waya o yeme Ashili zora o baya o bora ka waye ka edang.Woe to you Pharisees! For you pay tithes of mint, rue, and every herb, but you disregard justice and the love of God. You should have practiced the latter without neglecting the former.

43“E lyǝ udi ying maParisa ana okpwe o gong, ying naana e yeme tora to ciisǝ te moole a nyimi o dandaro gwarzanang maYahuda e kang yeme makoo ara ejamane.Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the chief seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.

44“E lyǝ udi, e rere o yangga na macau maaka ma wilǝ e kang burǝ na a nyimi macau mame, ka aromo itǝzǝ ne ane ta rosa ne.”Woe to you! For you are like unmarked graves, which men walk over without even noticing.”

45Na ondo a nyimi ana o rosa ngmǝ aka Ashili a nya Mosa wa kabare na, “Ondo o baala, ba beka nyimi, a ba lya mainu maro kanza.”One of the experts in the law told Him, “Teacher, when You say these things, You insult us as well.”

46Na Yeso kabare na, “Ying ma kanza e lyǝ udi ana o baala angmǝ aka Ashili a nya Mosa. E anza aromo magogoro ma dengdeng ka deketea ne anza aza angmǝ aka Ashili a nya Mosa o poba oya. Aying ka topkwe to ying e era eta kangkama ne ko ka lebo le yende ne.“Woe to you as well, experts in the law!” He replied. “For you weigh men down with heavy burdens, but you yourselves will not lift a finger to lighten their load.

47“E lyǝ udi, ka e ezeze nangka magonggong ma ying eze, o sooza macau ma ana o beya a ngmǝ ka mawo ma Ashili, kanza magonggong ma ying neya ne wonze ne.Woe to you! For you build tombs for the prophets, but it was your fathers who killed them.

48Ying a tokpwe to ying e wore o bena e kabare ka epa eka magonggong ma ying ne eze. Ne wonze ana o beya a ngmǝ ka mawo ma Ashili aying e sooze ne macau.So you are witnesses consenting to the deeds of your fathers: They killed the prophets, and you build their tombs.

49Azaa nyimi, Ashili ba nyimi o rosa ai a bekaana, ‘Eyang tonga ne ana o beya a ngmǝ ka mawo ma Ashili ka atoma Yeso, neyo wonga na ondo one, ane gǝǝzǝ na ondo.’Because of this, the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send them prophets and apostles; some of them they will kill and others they will persecute.’

50Aza nyimi, aromo tomore toona neyo ana manyau ma ra aburu a pate ana o beya a ngmǝ ka mawo ma Ashili ka a wongze o era o bora lerambo le Ashili.As a result, this generation will be charged with the blood of all the prophets that has been shed since the foundation of the world,

51O era bora ka ma nyau ma Habila a deya a ma nyau ma Zakariya, oka a wong a tera ara a sangsang Ashili ka ara o kala be sangsang a Ashili. Eeye, eyang baalo ying, aromo tomore toona neyo ana madinǝ mame ba pat.from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who was killed between the altar and the sanctuary. Yes, I tell you, all of it will be charged to this generation.

52“E lyǝ udi ying ana o rosa angmǝ aka Ashili a nya Mosa, eta rosa Ashili ne a ekang dame ana o yeme o rosa me orona, e samba o jeka epa mo pari abuudu o rosa. Ying a topkwe to ying eta e lyǝ ne, aying e kang nara andaaka neya lyǝzǝ.”Woe to you experts in the law! For you have taken away the key to knowledge. You yourselves have not entered, and you have hindered those who were entering.”

53Nangka Yeso ka baya arakaname, na maParisa ka ana baala angmǝ aka Ashili a nya Mosa ne bore o nyana kai ba jǝng ane gare kai ka bepirǝ,As Jesus went on from there, the scribes and Pharisees began to oppose Him bitterly and to ply Him with questions about many things,

54adorana ne laka o rizi o kai aza e epa eka ka yo beka.waiting to catch Him in something He might say.
