Luke 24 (YNS) · Opened

1Ilä a làmiŋ ututu tutu, akaar bàkyen kà an'dii, bàsyen may a usɔŋ bàläm ba.On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women came to the tomb, bringing the spices they had prepared.

2Ba bàmɛn naa nkɔŋ yàkäl u mun a an'dii bàkyàbuum ukɔl.They found the stone rolled away from the tomb,

3Waa bàbilà, wɛɛ ba bàmɛn anki ndür a Mwol Yɛsu.but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.

4Kyekà mpal bàkäl ba mubem ndaa ayi, wɛɛ le, baar bɔ̈ɔ̈l bàŋàbwaar ipfɛy a in'ŋyäŋ bàyàmɛnà tsütsü apà ba.While they were puzzling over this, suddenly two men in radiant apparel stood beside them.

5Bɔɔmà lawɛl la, laa bàtsüüm ba u mɛɛn, waa bàtɛn a ba naa: « Ntɔn nkye làleŋà bɛ mbuur a mɔ̈ɔ̈ uboo a akü?As the women bowed their faces to the ground in terror, the two men asked them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead?

6Nde papà watɛy, nde akyàwiyà. Làyɔbà ndaa kàlakyään nde mpal kàkäl nde u NgalilɛHe is not here; He has risen! Remember how He told you while He was still in Galilee:

7anà kàtɛn nde naa: "Yubwaŋ naa Mwan a mbuur bun'yälà akà baar abe, bun'bɛɛrà u kulunsi, waa nde uwiyà kà ilä kyàtär." »‘The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.’”

8Apan ba bàyɔbà ndaa a Yɛsu.Then they remembered His words.

9Ba bàlwomà kà an'dii, waa bàkàkyään ndaa ayi yanswà akà Bàkwem Aŋimwɛy anà akà alɔŋki bumwɛy banswà.And when they returned from the tomb, they reported all these things to the Eleven and to all the others.

10Akaar aban bàkäl Màlye a Magàdalà, Zwan anà Màlye ngwän a Zyak. Akaar bumwɛy bàkäl anà ba bàkàkyään ndaa nsil ayi akà antööm.It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them who told this to the apostles.

11Wɛɛ ba làkwikilà bàsi anki ntɔn ya yàkäl asànaa ndwɛy a mwäänà.But their words seemed like nonsense to them, and they did not believe the women.

12Itàkal abwɛy, Petɔlà waa kàmbarà, kàpaarà ntiin mukyà an'dii, laa kànyee nde, kàmɛn nde in'siŋ a ipfɛy mpɛl, waa kàfurà ndwà ande wàmuyibem ndaa yàlyaaŋ.Peter, however, got up and ran to the tomb. And after bending down and seeing only the linen cloths, he went away, wondering to himself what had happened.

13Yàmɛnà naa ilä nsil akin, alɔŋki bööl bàkäl mukyà bul mwɛy ikɔb a la Ԑmayüs, la làkäl isii an'taaŋ mɔ̈ɔ̈l mà dwaan a Yɛlusàlɛm.That same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.

14Ba bàkäl muyiyääm ndaa yanswà yàlyaaŋ.They were talking with each other about everything that had happened.

15Mpal bàkäl ba muyiyääm, Yɛsu ŋakwo kàsin tsütsü apà ba, waa uyikyà mbwo mwɛy anà ba.And as they talked and deliberated, Jesus Himself came up and walked along with them.

16Ba bàkyer un'manà, wɛɛ mii a ba myapɛɛ anki mbwo muyöb naa awà nde.But their eyes were kept from recognizing Him.

17Yɛsu kàtɛn a ba naa: « Bɛ ininà làyiyääm u mbwo làyikyà bɛ? » Ba waa bàmbär, anà ngyɛb yanswà.He asked them, “What are you discussing so intently as you walk along?” They stood still, with sadness on their faces.

18Umwɛy uboo a ba ikɔb ande Klɔpas waa kun'fuul: « Ngye, ngye awà un'nsi Yɛlusàlɛm umwɛy mpɛl mpa uyöb indiir ikalyaaŋà ilä abi? »One of them, named Cleopas, asked Him, “Are You the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in recent days?”

19Nde waa kafuul naa: « Ininà bà? » Ba waa bun'fuur naa: « Ndaa yàbweel Yɛsu un'nsi Nasàlɛr! Nde kàkäl ŋangɔɔm a ngwal. Nde ya kàswɛŋ unsà nsyääl ande anà ndaa ande kusà a Nzam anà kusà a un'sɛŋ wanswà.“What things?” He asked. “The events involving Jesus of Nazareth,” they answered. “This man was a prophet, powerful in speech and action before God and all the people.

20Wɛɛ amfum a angaŋ abi anà abyääl abi bàkyer aben mukun'yälà ntɔn bun'tsüül mbar a ukwà, waa bun'bɛɛrà u kulunsi.Our chief priests and rulers delivered Him up to the sentence of death, and they crucified Him.

21Wɛɛ bi, bi kàsi làkyän naa nde mbuur ayàkɔɔr Isàlɛl. Udu a ayi yanswà, wɛɛ le, ŋàbawà ilä kyàtär sɛmà yan'lyaaŋ ndaa ayi yanswà.But we were hoping He was the One who would redeem Israel. And besides all this, it is the third day since these things took place.

22Yà ndandaa naa akaar amwɛy uboo a un'tüüb abi bàyikyään ndaa a ubem: ba bàkyen ututu tutu kà an'dii,Furthermore, some of our women astounded us. They were at the tomb early this morning,

23wɛɛ ba bàmɛn anki ndür ande. Waa ba bàyikyään sye naa akyeey a du bàyàmɛnà akà ba ntɔn mukakyään naa nde we anà mɔ̈ɔ̈.but they did not find His body. They came and told us they had seen a vision of angels, who said that Jesus was alive.

24Bumwɛy uboo abi waa bàkyen kà an'dii, ba bàmɛn asànaa bàtɛn akaar, wɛɛ ba nde bun'mɛn anki. »Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had described. But Him they did not see.”

25Apan Yɛsu waa kàtɛn a ba naa: « Ɔɔ bɛ baar làkɔ̈ɔ̈n un'yɛnà, u mpem mpa ifàyöb agyägyä ndaa yanswà bàtɛn aŋangɔɔm!Then Jesus said to them, “O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!

26Yàlɔ̈m anki naa Klistɔ umɛn mpay ayi yanswà, waa ubilà u làkoo ande? »Was it not necessary for the Christ to suffer these things and then to enter His glory?”

27Ungö, nde kakyään indiir byanswà bàsön ntɔn nde sɛmà Mɔsɛ tii aŋangɔɔm banswà.And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, He explained to them what was written in all the Scriptures about Himself.

28Mpal nsil ayin, ba bàtöl tsütsü a bul bàkäl ba mukyà. Yàmɛnà asànaa Yɛsu alab mbwo ande.As they approached the village where they were headed, He seemed to be going farther.

29Wɛɛ ba bun'si muküünà, waa bàtɛn naa: « Kal anà bi, ngye akimanà naa taaŋ làmuminà, mpib yàmubwà. » Nde kàbilà u ndwà ntɔn mukal anà ba.But they pleaded with Him, “Stay with us, for it is nearly evening and the day is almost over.” So He went in to stay with them.

30Nde kàbwaay u mɛsà anà ba, waa kàwɛl mampà, ungö mufuur antɔɔn, nde kàtsül ma, waa kapɛ.While He was reclining at the table with them, He took bread, spoke a blessing and broke it, and gave it to them.

31Apan, mii aba waa myàdubà, bun'yöb ba, wɛɛ taaŋ nsil alan, laa kàyaalà nde kusà aba.Then their eyes were opened and they recognized Jesus—and He disappeared from their sight.

32Ba waa bàsàbulà mutɛn un'tɔŋ a un'tɔŋ naa: « Mpem abi yàböl anki mpal uyitɛɛn nde u mbwo anà uyibuul nde Ndaa Aŋàsɔn? »They asked each other, “Were not our hearts burning within us as He spoke with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?”

33Taaŋ nsil alan waa bàmbarà, waa bàfurà Yɛlusàlɛm. Akun ba bàmɛn Bàkwem Aŋimwɛy ban'köŋ anà baar bàkäl anà ba.And they got up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven and those with them, gathered together

34Ba banswà bawɛl ubwaŋ. Apan ba bàtɛn a ba naa: « Ndandaa Mwol akyàwiyà, nde amɛnà akà Simɔn. »and saying, “The Lord has indeed risen and has appeared to Simon!”

35Apan alɔŋki bɔ̈ɔ̈l abà bakyään indiir byanswà byàlyaaŋ u mbwo anà ba Yɛsu bun'yöb aben mpal kàtsül nde mampà.Then the two told what had happened on the road, and how they had recognized Jesus in the breaking of the bread.

36Mpal bàkäl ba muyäämà abà, Yɛsu ŋakwo kàyàmɛnà uboo a ba, waa kàtɛn naa: « Duu làkäl anà bɛ. »While they were describing these events, Jesus Himself stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.”

37Wɛɛ ba bàkäl unsà ubem anà u bɔɔmà ntɔn ba bàsii naa ba ban'man buulà.But they were startled and frightened, thinking they had seen a spirit.

38Nde waa kàtɛn a ba naa: « Ntɔn nkye lan'bulà bɛ udu udu? Ntɔn nkye nkyɛɛr yan'bilà ya u mpem abɛ?“Why are you troubled,” Jesus asked, “and why do doubts arise in your hearts?

39Làler an'kɔɔ amɛ anà in'kɔl amɛ: awà mɛ. Lan'tɛ mpi anà làler! Ntɔn buulà ufàkal anki anà in'twaŋ anà in'kwo. Wɛɛ bɛ làkimanà naa mɛ in'we anà mya. »Look at My hands and My feet. It is I Myself. Touch Me and see—for a spirit does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.”

40Mpal kàtɛɛnà nde abwɛy, nde kàkälà muswaŋ an'kɔɔ ande anà in'kɔl ande.And when He had said this, He showed them His hands and feet.

41Abun, unsà un'sak, ba bàkwe anki musà làkwikilà, ba bàkäl mubem. Apan nde waa kafuul naa: « Nkye bɛ làwe anà undiir adyà apà? »While they were still in disbelief because of their joy and amazement, He asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?”

42Ba bun'pɛ itsu a nsö aŋàyaŋ.So they gave Him a piece of broiled fish,

43Nde kàwɛl kya, waa kàdi kya u mii aba.and He took it and ate it in front of them.

44Ungö, nde kàtɛn a ba naa: « Bɛ lan'man ndaa kàtɛn mɛ a bɛ mpal kàkäl mɛ anà bɛ: "Yubwaŋ naa ndaa yanswà bàsön ntɔn mɛ uboo a Un'kɔɔn a Mɔsɛ, Aŋangɔɔm anà An'diim yan'mɛnà u mii." »Jesus said to them, “These are the words I spoke to you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about Me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms.”

45Apan nde kaduub un'yɛnà ntɔn ba bàyöb Ndaa Aŋàsɔn.Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures.

46Wɛɛ nde kàtɛn a ba naa: « Bàsön naa: "Klistɔ ayàman ntaan, nde akyer ayàwiyà kà ilä kyàtär,And He told them, “This is what is written: The Christ will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day,

47waa bàyàlɔŋ kà ikɔb ande akà baar a in'sɛŋ myanswà, sɛmà Yɛlusàlɛm, naa ba bàkyer asɔɔmà, waa bàwal ndwääl a nkul a man'be aba.and in His name repentance and forgiveness of sins will be proclaimed to all nations, beginning in Jerusalem.

48Bɛ làbà ambäl a indiir abi byanswà.You are witnesses of these things.

50Ungö, nde kasyen u nsà a bul a tsütsü a Bɛtani, nde kàsɛn an'kɔɔ ande, waa kasaak.When Jesus had led them out as far as Bethany, He lifted up His hands and blessed them.

51Mpal kàkäl nde mukasaak, nde kàkaabà anà ba, waa bun'syen u du.While He was blessing them, He left them and was carried up into heaven.

52Wɛɛ akà ba, ungö mukun'sà làkoo, ba bàfurà Yɛlusàlɛm unsà un'sak mbɔɔn.And they worshiped Him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy,

53Wɛɛ ba bàkälà taaŋ lanswà u ndwà a Nzam musyaŋà Nzam.praising God continually in the temple.
