Meriam Mir Gospels
1Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples,
1Ege Iesu detager gaire le lakub, pako abara kaimeg giz,
2Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat:
2Kega, Aotale giz pako Faresaio giz bakiri Mose ra bas.
3All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not.
3Peike uaba mamor asarare a uaba ikerare lu uridili uiaba daratagerare, mamor asarare: epe uaba nole ereuerem uiaba tonar giz; abelelam uiaba no mer detaut, a umer kak ikerare abkoreb.
4For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men’s shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.
4Abelelam uiaba didbare au lu beber uiaba dikemerik le giz uiaba tabo ge; ege uiaba umer kak uiaba kebi kei etadmir.
5But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,
5Gaire uiaba dorge uridili ikerare, iaueakai le giz uiabi darasmerare: uiaba ikerare au filakteri, pako ko au sisero uiaba am uali,
6And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues,
6Uiaba au sererege eidi abele aule ra uteb leuer ero, pako aule ra bao sunago ge,
7And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi.
7Pako gaire le uiabi nasege segur uteb ge, a gaire le giz uiaba nei natkerauem, Rabi ae, Rabi ae.
8But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.
8Ege uaba nole nei atker Rabi; abelelam netate uaba Ereuer le, abele Keriso idali, a uaba uridili keimer giz.
9And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
9Uaba nole nerute le geseb ge nei atker uaba aba; abelelam netate uaba Baba, penoka dali kotor ge.
10Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ.
10Uaba nole nei atker ereuer le, abelelam netate uaba Ereuer le, Keriso idali.
11But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.
11Epe abele le aule uabim, E uabim memeg le.
12And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.
12Ese nerute le tababu babei E aule, E ekekeli; Ese nerute le E tababu gebgeb, E bataili uiabim tumge uridili.
13¶ But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves , neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.
13Uaiai uaba aotale pako Faresaio, bes le giz! abelelam uaba dimi abele kotor baselaia lelam; abelelam uaba umer kak barot, a uaba ko daraisumdarare uader le barota.
14Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.
14Uaiai uaba aotale pako Faresaio, bes le giz! abelelam uaba ais eseamulu mai kosker uiaba meta, a uaba esorerapare au pereper ikerare ispilu; abele lulam Ade ra urker aule uabi tumge.
15Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.
15Uaiai uaba aotale pako Faresaio, bes le giz! abelelam uaba deraueili gur ge pako sep ge iaueakai uaba nagri nerute le uaba esorerapare; ese uaba erpei, a uaba ikerare Gena ra le E au adud uabielam.
16Woe unto you, ye blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor!
16Uaiai uaba datkimuar sadamer le, a uaba mer, Ese le iskosi abele zogo meta nolea kar, epe le iskosi abele zogo meta ra golo, niaiem peike!
17Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?
17Le giz paim ae, pako sadamer; abelelam nade aule, nako abele golo, pako abele zogo meta zogoem abele golo?
18And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty.
18A nerute, Ese le iskosi abele zegu lu bao, nolea kar; epe abele iskosi abele zegu lu abi tumge, niaiem peike.
19Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift?
19Le giz paim ae, pako sadamer; abelelam nade lu aule, nako zegu lu, nako bao ge zogoem abele zegu lu?
20Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon.
20Dasmer, abele le iskosi abele bao zegu lu, E iskosi gaire lu uridili abi tumge.
21And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein.
21Abele le iskosi abele zogo meta, E abi iskosi, pako le emeri muige abele zogo meta.
22And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon.
22Abele le iskosi abele kotor ge, E iskosi Ade ra bao, pako le abi dog egimulu.
23Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
23Uaiai uaba aotale pako Faresaio, bes le giz! uaba ikuar kebi lu abele mili pako abele aneto pako abele kumina, a gaire au lu uaba ispilu abele gelarlam, abele barkak tonar, pako abele omare, pako abele oituli: abkoreb ikelare lu ike, a nole dikaer lu peike.
24Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.
24Uaba datkimuar sadamer le, uaba dirimid abele lag, a mamor irusere kemerkemer abele kamela.
25Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.
25Uaiai uaba aotale pako Faresaio, bes le giz! uaba dirup abele tanelu ge ra sor pako abele kumeti, epe muige mitkar lu itike pako abele adud tonar giz.
26Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.
26Mama le Faresaio sadamer, mama kekiam dirup muige abele tanelu ge pako abele kumeti, iaueakai ogo kak kemerkemer abele sor ge.
27Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men’s bones, and of all uncleanness.
27Uaiai uaba aotale pako Faresaio, bes le giz! abelelam uaba mokakalam ao giz, adige au kakekake, debele le dasmer, epe muige mitkar eud le la lid, pako gaire adud lu uridili.
28Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
28Mokakalam uaba, adige mokakalam barkak tonar le ise gaire le ra opem, epe muige uaba au mitkar abele bes mer pako abele tonar barbar.
29Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,
29Uaiai uaba aotale pako Faresaio, bes le giz! abelelam uaba emoare gaire perofeta uiaba ao, a ko deiriem uiaba ao le barkak tonar giz,
30And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
30A uaba mer kega, Ese keriba abi dog emri abele kerker keriba aba giz emeret, umer kak keriba okakis uiaba narsare perofeta giz.
31Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.
31Peike abele mer uabu etomeret uabim, uaba omasker gaire le giz narsare gaire perofeta giz.
32Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.
32A uaba ko mitkar abele tonar lu uaba aba giz lam.
33Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
33Ege uaba tabo, tabo areg ra omasker giz, nako uaba derar abele urker Genaim?
34¶ Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:
34Dasmer abele lu, kaka uabi namarida perofeta giz, pako pardali le giz, pako aotale le giz; uader le uaba narsare, pako satauroem; a uader le uaba damarika uaba sunago, pako deraimerare nerute uteb a nerute uteb;
35That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
35Iaueakai bakedida uabi dog gaire le giz barkak tonar uiaba mam uabielam emetu epaitered abele geseb ge, ditimedelu Abela ra mam, le barkak tonar, a bakedilu Zakaria ra mam, abele Barakaio ra uerem, uaba ipiti eumid abele kesi zogo meta pako zegu lu bao ge.
36Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
36Ageakar kaka uabi detager, Gaire lu uridili tabarki tumem abele nosik.
37O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
37Ierusalema ae, Ierusalema ae, le ipitare gaire perofeta giz, pako baker erboro le giz emetu namarid marim! kaka au lagelag etami mara omasker giz, mokakalam faul akuadare abara omasker muige abara peo, epe uaba nole la kak!
38Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
38Dasmer, uaba meta dikaertare a ko pisoger nagri.
39For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
39Abelelam kaka uabi detager, Uaba umer kak kari dasmer, mena keubu uaba kari daratagerare, Uerkab le tabarki Opole ra nei.
