Meriam Mir Gospels
1He entered and was passing through Jericho.
1E Ieriko ge osemelu, a bakeamulu.
2There was a man named Zacchaeus. He was a chief tax collector, and he was rich.
2Dasmer nerute le, abara nei Sakaio; E au telona le, a lu giz.
3He was trying to see who Jesus was, and couldn’t because of the crowd, because he was short.
3E laglag dasmer, Iesu nako; a umer kak abelelam gaire le lakub, a nerute, E teupei.
4He ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see him, for he was going to pass that way.
4Ege E au koreder gaire le la opem, E ogi nerute lu ge, nei sukamoru, E laglag abi dasmer: abelelam E abi gab dirier.
5When Jesus came to the place, he looked up and saw him, and said to him, “Zacchaeus, hurry and come down, for today I must stay at your house.”
5Ege Iesu tabakeamulu abele uteb ge, a egreemalu, a abi erdar, E abi detager, kega, Sakaio, ma tarabu; abkoreb kaka emeri mara meta abele gerger.
6He hurried, came down, and received him joyfully.
6Ege E tabu, abi detager, E au sererege.
7When they saw it, they all murmured, saying, “He has gone in to lodge with a man who is a sinner.”
7Ege gaire le giz abi erdarare, a uiaba mudmer, kega, E bakeamu uit le la meta.
8Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, “Behold, Lord, half of my goods I give to the poor. If I have wrongfully exacted anything of anyone, I restore four times as much.”
8A Sakaio ekuei, a abi detager, kega, Opole, dasmer, kaka arage karbara lu uader nole lu kak; ese nerute le au ueku karim kaka uapum, a kaka bodomalam neis a neis gaber.
9Jesus said to him, “Today, salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham.
9Ege Iesu de abi detager, kega, Azimoaret tabarki abele boai abele gerger ge, abelelam E dali Aberahama ra uerem.
10For the Son of Man came to seek and to save that which was lost.”
10Abelelam Ade ra Uerem tabarki deraimerare le badimirida, ueakai uerkabu.
11As they heard these things, he went on and told a parable, because he was near Jerusalem, and they supposed that God’s Kingdom would be revealed immediately.
11Ui ge dimiruartare abele lu, ege E uiabim ko detager nerute mer babisdarie, iaueakai maike Ierusalema, abelelam ui dikiaporare Ade ra baselaia pe detomereta.
12He said therefore, “A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and to return.
12Abelelam E uiabi detager, kega, Nerute kele bakeamu nerute muriz gedim, ueakai nagri lu, a E lagelag opole, a iako takomeda.
13He called ten servants of his and gave them ten mina coins, and told them, ‘Conduct business until I come.’
13Ege E darabgerare ten abara memeg le, E uiabi naisuerare ten paun, E uiabi daratagerare, Ua erapare a iako uatabakomeret.
14But his citizens hated him, and sent an envoy after him, saying, ‘We don’t want this man to reign over us.’
14Ege abara ged au ueku abim, abelelam uiaba emarkare, a detagerare, kega, Keriba nole lagelag abele le keriba opole.
15“When he had come back again, having received the kingdom, he commanded these servants, to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know what they had gained by conducting business.
15E ge ko akomelu abelelam E nagri lu, ueakai E opole, ege E uiabi darabgerare, tabara memeg le, nagri abara mani uiabi dog, iaueakai E umele nako abara mani dordor lu terapei.
16The first came before him, saying, ‘Lord, your mina has made ten more minas.’
16A nerute le tabakeamulu, a abi detager, kega, Kole, mara paun, kaka nagri ten paun ko.
17“He said to him, ‘Well done, you good servant! Because you were found faithful with very little, you shall have authority over ten cities.’
17E abi detager, kega, Au debele, debe memeg le: abelelam ma ageakar kebi lu, ma sirdam ten uteb.
18“The second came, saying, ‘Your mina, Lord, has made five minas.’
18Nerute le tabakeamu, a abi detager, kega, Kole, mara paun, kaka nagri faif paun ko.
19“So he said to him, ‘And you are to be over five cities.’
19E abi detager, kega, Ma sirdam faif uteb.
20Another came, saying, ‘Lord, behold, your mina, which I kept laid away in a handkerchief,
20Nerute le tabakeamu, a abi detager, kega, Kole, dasmer, mara paun, kaka ikedi ages:
21for I feared you, because you are an exacting man. You take up that which you didn’t lay down, and reap that which you didn’t sow.’
21Abelelam kaka mari geum, kaka umele mara tonar: ma ais abele lu ma nolea ikedi lokod ge, ma igiri abele saito ma nolea ariti kak.
22“He said to him, ‘Out of your own mouth I will judge you, you wicked servant! You knew that I am an exacting man, taking up that which I didn’t lay down and reaping that which I didn’t sow.
22Ege E abi detager, kega, abele memeg le adud tonar, Mara mer abelelam kaka mari bodomalam. Ma umele kara tonar, kaka ais abele lu kaka nolea ikedi lokod ge, a igiri abele saito nolea kara aritilam;
23Then why didn’t you deposit my money in the bank, and at my coming, I might have earned interest on it?’
23Nalugelam ma nolea ais kara mani abele meta mani terapei, iaueakai kaka iako tarakomelu nagri lu abkoreb?
24He said to those who stood by, ‘Take the mina away from him and give it to him who has the ten minas.’
24E uiabi daratagerare, uader obako, Uaba itkamer abele paun, ikuar nerute le ten paun.
25“They said to him, ‘Lord, he has ten minas!’
25Ui ge abi detagerare, kega, Kole, nagri ten paun.
26‘For I tell you that to everyone who has, will more be given; but from him who doesn’t have, even that which he has will be taken away from him.
26Abelelam kaka uabi detagereda, Ese le nagri lu, E ais; ese nerute le nolea lu kak, E itkamer abara lu.
27But bring those enemies of mine who didn’t want me to reign over them here, and kill them before me.’”
27Nerute, uader kari derar, uiaba nolea kari lakak ko uiaba opole, uaba kari eguatumur peike abele uteb ge, uaba ipit kara opem.
28Having said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.
28Ege mer eseemulu, E kekiam bakeamulu Ierusalema ge.
29When he came near to Bethsphage and Bethany, at the mountain that is called Olivet, he sent two of his disciples,
29Ege maike Bethefage a Bethania, abele paser ge, nei Oliua, epe E namarid neis abara kaimeg giz,
30saying, “Go your way into the village on the other side, in which, as you enter, you will find a colt tied, which no man has ever sat upon. Untie it and bring it.
30E uiabi daratager, kega, Ua bakeamulam abele uteb uabi opem, ese ua osemedariei abele uteb ge, uaba erdali kebi asina didbaredi, nolea le abi sor agimur kak: uaba abi detue, karim tegared.
31If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ say to him: ‘The Lord needs it.’”
31Ese nerute le uabi itimer, Nalugelam uaba abi detue? A ua abi detageram, kega, Opole abi lagelag.
32Those who were sent went away and found things just as he had told them.
32Ui ge bakeamulei, a ui erdali, mokakalam abara mer uiabi daratager,
33As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, “Why are you untying the colt?”
33Ui ge detuei abele kebi asina, a uader le giz uiabi nautumerare, kega, Nalugem uaba detuei abele kebi asina?
34They said, “The Lord needs it.”
34A uiaba detaut, kega, Opole abi lagelag.
35Then they brought it to Jesus. They threw their cloaks on the colt and sat Jesus on them.
35Ege ui abi egaredelei Iesuim: ui ge uiaba ame uali abi sor ge dikmerikare abele kebi asina ge, ui ge Iesui agiserare abi sorge igimerare.
36As he went, they spread their cloaks on the road.
36E bakeamulu, a uiaba ame uali gab ge esagerare.
37As he was now getting near, at the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works which they had seen,
37Ege maike abele gorgor paser ge, nei Oliua, ui ge, abara kaimeg giz uridili, ditimedarare sererege, uiaba au ereretikri Ade despelare, abelelam atamelam uridili uiaba erdali;
38saying, “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest!”
38Ege uiaba detautare, kega, Uerkab pe abele Opole, tabarki Iehoua ra nei ge: uerkab kotor ge, a deseper abele lu tumege.
39Some of the Pharisees from the multitude said to him, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples!”
39Ege uader Faresaio giz, pako lekub ge, uiaba abim detager, kega, Ereuer le, ma bardaratkare mabara kaimeg giz.
40He answered them, “I tell you that if these were silent, the stones would cry out.”
40E uiabi daratagerare, kega, Kaka uabi detager, ese uiaba nole mer kak, a baker peike umele detaut.
41When he came near, he saw the city and wept over it,
41Maike, E erdali abele uteb, E ezoli,
42saying, “If you, even you, had known today the things which belong to your peace! But now, they are hidden from your eyes.
42E abi detager, kega, Ese ma umele abele gerger, abele lu ueakai marim debele! a nerute, ma nole erdali.
43For the days will come on you when your enemies will throw up a barricade against you, surround you, hem you in on every side,
43Abelelam keubu gerger uatabaruk, gaire uaba taip uanartare a uanatumdare, uader au ueku uabim, uiaba deraueli marim, gaire uteb uridili,
44and will dash you and your children within you to the ground. They will not leave in you one stone on another, because you didn’t know the time of your visitation.”
44A uiaba mari ikeli no sep ise, pako mara omasker muige mari dog; nole nerute baker ko igi tumem nerute baker muige mari dog; abelelam ma nole umer kak na uar ge uatabaruk mari uanardar.
45He entered into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in it,
45E balu muige zogo meta, ge, E namuare adem uader le uiaba lu terapeirare,
46saying to them, “It is written, ‘My house is a house of prayer,’ but you have made it a ‘den of robbers’!”
46E uiabi daratagerare, kega, Emetu detali, Kara meta, esorerapare meta: a uaba ikeli mokakalam baker kur ge eruam le giz.
47He was teaching daily in the temple, but the chief priests, the scribes, and the leading men among the people sought to destroy him.
47Ege E ereuerem muige zogo meta gaire gerger. A zogozogo le giz, pako aotale giz, pako tarim le, abele ged ge, ege uiaba lagelag abi ipit:
48They couldn’t find what they might do, for all the people hung on to every word that he said.
48A nerute, uiaba umer kak ikeli; abelelam abele ged ge uridili au lagelag abi asoli.
