Meriam Mir Gospels
1After he had finished speaking in the hearing of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
1Ege abara mer uridili eseamulu, abele ged uiaba asorare, epe E iako bakeamulu Kaperenauma ge.
2A certain centurion’s servant, who was dear to him, was sick and at the point of death.
2Ege abele le, asesered netat handed, abara memeg le E nagri gim maike eumid, E abim au omare.
3When he heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him to come and save his servant.
3Ege E asoli Iesu pedali, E namarid aule giz Iudaia Iesuim damosi E bakeam abara meta ge, E lagelage idigiri gim le, abara memeg le.
4When they came to Jesus, they begged him earnestly, saying, “He is worthy for you to do this for him,
4Ege uiaba tabakeauare Iesuim, epe uiaba au elele damosi, kega, Abkoreb, abele le, ma ko ikeli abara lag;
5for he loves our nation, and he built our synagogue for us.”
5Abelelam E au omare meriba ged, ege E ikeli keriba sunago.
6Jesus went with them. When he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him, “Lord, don’t trouble yourself, for I am not worthy for you to come under my roof.
6Epe Iesu bakeamulu gaire le abi kemem. Ege E maike meta ge, epe le, asesered netat handed le, E namarid abara boai Iesuim, kega, Opole, nolea abkoreb ma barot muige kara meta ge.
7Therefore I didn’t even think myself worthy to come to you; but say the word, and my servant will be healed.
7Abele lu kaka dikiapore nolea abkoreb kak bakeam marim; debele no mara mer, ueakai kara memeg le adem idigiri abara gim.
8For I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers. I tell this one, ‘Go!’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
8Abelelam kaka nerute le E sirdam karim, kaka sirdam uader ares le: ese kaka abi detager nerute le, Ma bakeam, E bakeam; pako nerute le, Tabakeam, E tabakeam; pako kara memeg le, Ma ikeli abele lu, E ikeli.
9When Jesus heard these things, he marveled at him, and turned and said to the multitude who followed him, “I tell you, I have not found such great faith, no, not in Israel.”
9Ege Iesu asoli abele lu, E abi damared; E egreemalu, E uiabim detager, gaire le lakub uiaba abi irmili, Kaka uabim detager, Kaka nole umer kak nerute Isaraela le nagri au oituli mokakalam.
10Those who were sent, returning to the house, found that the servant who had been sick was well.
10Ege uader namarid, a uiaba akomed meta ge, uiaba erdali abele memeg le, E gimgim, abara gim emetu akaida.
11Soon afterwards, he went to a city called Nain. Many of his disciples, along with a great multitude, went with him.
11Kebi gerger, E bakeamulu nerute uteb ge, nei atker Naina; ege uader abara kaimeg giz E uiabi kemem, pako gaire le lakub.
12Now when he came near to the gate of the city, behold, one who was dead was carried out, the only born son of his mother, and she was a widow. Many people of the city were with her.
12Ege E maike te abele uteb ge, dasmer, uiaba bakuare nerute le emetu eumid, abara apu E netat abara uerem, abara kimiar emetu eumid: abele ged gaire le emeri abi dog.
13When the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her and said to her, “Don’t cry.”
13Ege Opole abim erdali, E au omare a au nasenase abim, ege abi detager, Ma nolea ezoli.
14He came near and touched the coffin, and the bearers stood still. He said, “Young man, I tell you, arise!”
14Ege E bakeam maike, E itut abele bao; epe, uiaba bakuare le eumid, uiaba ekue. E abi detager, Makeriam, kaka marim detager, Ma ekue.
15He who was dead sat up and began to speak. Then he gave him to his mother.
15Epe, abele le eumid, E emeri, E mer etkalu. Epe E ikuar abara apu.
16Fear took hold of all, and they glorified God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us!” and, “God has visited his people!”
16Ege uiaba uridili au geum: ege uiaba Adim naospered, kega, Ege E ekue meribim abele perofeta, E au kale; Ade E dasmer abara ged.
17This report went out concerning him in the whole of Judea and in all the surrounding region.
17Ege abele mer abielam deraueli Iudaia uridili, pako nerute apek.
18The disciples of John told him about all these things.
18Ege Ioane ra kaimeg giz gaire lu uridili uiabi abi etomertare.
19John, calling to himself two of his disciples, sent them to Jesus, saying, “Are you the one who is coming, or should we look for another?”
19Epe Ioane dabgiri abara kaimeg giz neis le, ege uiabi namariklu Opoleim, kega, Nako mama le tabakeamu, nako keriba naokaili nerute le?
20When the men had come to him, they said, “John the Baptizer has sent us to you, saying, ‘Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?’”
20Ege ui bakeamulei Iesuim, kega, Ioane Bapataiso keribim namarid marim, E detager, kega, Nako mama le tabakeam, nako keriba naokaili nerute le?
21In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and to many who were blind he gave sight.
21Abele gerger gaire gim le E idigiri, pako asiasi gim, pako demoni giz; pako ikuar ueakai gaire le pone sadmer uiaba bakaerti.
22Jesus answered them, “Go and tell John the things which you have seen and heard: that the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.
22Epe Iesu uiabim detaut, kega, Ua bakeamulam, uaba etomeret Ioaneim gaire lu uaba emetu erdali, pako lu uaba emetu asoli; sadmer bakaerti, pako ibibi le emetu ekasereder, pako lepera emetu ogdirup, a grip eudgamad emetu diski asoli, uader eumid uiaba ko ekuei, a debe mer marau uiabim uader le nolea lu kak.
23Blessed is he who finds no occasion for stumbling in me.”
23E uerkab le, nolea mudi mer karim.
24When John’s messengers had departed, he began to tell the multitudes about John, “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
24Ege Ioane ra kaimeg giz ui bakeamulei, epe E marau gaire le lakub Ioaneim, Nalu lu uaba bakeauare sumez ge erdalare? nako abele mebud uag demali?
25But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft clothing? Behold, those who are gorgeously dressed and live delicately are in kings’ courts.
25Nalu lu uaba bakeauare erdalare? nako le am uali gebgeb? Dasmer, uader am debe uali, pako debe leuer eroare, uiaba mamoro emeri opole ra meta ge.
26But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.
26Nalu lu uaba bakeauare erdalare? nako perofeta? Ageakar, kaka uabi detager, E aule perofeta giz.
27This is he of whom it is written, ‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’
27Abelelam, E pedali, abele mer detali abim, Dasmer, kaka emarid kara merkem le mara opem, E paret mara gab mara opem.
28“For I tell you, among those who are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptizer; yet he who is least in God’s Kingdom is greater than he.”
28Kaka uabim detager, Nolea perofeta osmelu koskerlam aule mokakalam Ioane Bapataiso: epe le kebile Ade ra baselaia ge, E aule abim.
29When all the people and the tax collectors heard this, they declared God to be just, having been baptized with John’s baptism.
29Abele ged uiaba Adim naospered abele mer uiaba emetu asoli, pako telona giz, abelelam Ioane E uiabim bapataiso, abara bapataiso.
30But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the counsel of God, not being baptized by him themselves.
30Epe Faresaio giz, pako ereuer gelar giz, uiaba adem Ade ra sirdam, abelelam uiaba nolea lagelag abara bapataiso.
31“To what then should I compare the people of this generation? What are they like?
31Ege Opole detager, Abele nosik, nako lu mokakalam kaka uiabim natomeret? nako lu uiaba koreb?
32They are like children who sit in the marketplace and call to one another, saying, ‘We piped to you, and you didn’t dance. We mourned, and you didn’t weep.’
32Mokakalam kebile giz uiaba emeri zegur uteb ge, uiaba dabgiri, kega, Ege keriba sirumer uabim, a uaba nolea sererege baberkeri; ege keriba au ezoli uabim, a uaba nolea ezoli keribim.
33For John the Baptizer came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon.’
33Abelelam Ioane Bapataiso tabarki, nolea areto eroli, a nolea uaina ereli; a uaba detager, kega, E nagri demoni abi dog.
34The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Behold, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’
34Ege Ade ra Uerem tabarki, E eroli, a ereli; a uaba detager, kega, Dasmer, abele le E au lagelag leuer eroli, a pako uaina ereli, telona giz la le pako uit le!
35Wisdom is justified by all her children.”
35Abele le pardale, E gaire abara uerem, E debe mer abim.
36One of the Pharisees invited him to eat with him. He entered into the Pharisee’s house and sat at the table.
36Ege nerute le, Faresaio giz, E abi detager, Meriba eroare okakis. Ege E bakeamulu Faresaio ra meta, epe E eidi, a eroli.
37Behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that he was reclining in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster jar of ointment.
37Dasmer, nerute kosker abele uteb, abele kosker E uit le; ege emetu erdali E eidi eroli Faresaio ra meta, epe E tais nerute tarpor, debe laglag mitkar,
38Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
38E ekue isorge Iesu ra teter, E ezoli, ege abara ebeb babused Iesu ra teter, E idigiri abara mus, E eskos abara teter, pako desao abara gem abele lukup, debe laglag.
39Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner.”
39Ege Faresaio le umele Iesu E mer abim, epe E dikiapore muige abara nerkep, Ese abele le E perofeta, nako E umele abele kosker, pako abara tonar, ege E abi itut: abelelam abele kosker E uit le.
40Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” He said, “Teacher, say on.”
40Epe Iesu abi detager, kega, Simona, kara mer marim, ege E abi detager, Ereuer le, ma detager.
41“A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
41Neisi le uiaba damosi nerute le ra mani: nerute le abi damosi denari faif handed, a nerute le fifte.
42When they couldn’t pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most?”
42Ege uiaba nolea mani nakuar abkoreb abara mani, epe E uiabi omare, E idigiri uiabim nolea ko dikiapore bodomalam abara mani. Debele ma kari detager, Nete aule abara omare abim?
43Simon answered, “He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most.” He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”
43Ege Simona mer etkalu, kega, Kaka dikiapore, abele le gaire abara mani E abi idigiri. Ege E abim detager, Mara mer barkak.
44Turning to the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, and you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head.
44Epe Iesu egreemalu abele kosker, ege abi detager Simona, Nako, ma umele abele kosker? Kaka balu muige mara meta, ma nolea tais ni kara teter ge: epe abele kosker abara ebeb E babused kara teter ge, E idigiri abara mus.
45You gave me no kiss, but she, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.
45Ma nolea karim eskos: epe E dali, nolea ner kak karim eskos, abele ge ditimedlu abele meta ge balu.
46You didn’t anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.
46Ma nolea desao kara kerem abele lukup de: epe E dali, E desao kara teter abele lukup, debe laglag.
47Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But one to whom little is forgiven, loves little.”
47Abelelam, kaka detager marim, Ege gaire abara uit uridili emetu idigiri; abelelam E au omare: epe le kebile abara lu emetu idigiri, abara omare kebile.
48He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
48Ege E abi detager, abele kosker, Mara uit emetu idigiri.
49Those who sat at the table with him began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”
49Uader uiaba eidi eroare, a uiaba dikiapore muige uiaba nerkep, Nete le dali, E idigiri uit?
50He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”
50Ege E abi detager, abele kosker, Ma eded abelelam ma oituli; Ma uerkab bakeamu.
