Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
1In that hour the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who then is greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven?”
1Nunkangupini ditjini mili Jesungu wokarana wonti ja jatana wonti: „Worana pariwilpaia mililani morla pirna nganai?“
2Jesus called a little child to himself, and set him in the middle of them
2Ja Jesujeli kupa waka karkana wonti ja tanangu terti terkibana wonti,
3and said, “Most certainly I tell you, unless you turn and become as little children, you will in no way enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.
3Ja jatana wonti: „Morlalu ngani jurangu jatai: Jura wata karitjinani ja kupa wakawaka jeribaka pantjinani, jura morlalu wata pariwilpaia mililani wirila nganai.
4Whoever therefore humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven.
4Worana waka ngankateriai nunkangupini kupani jeribaka, naupini pariwilpaia mililani morla pirna nganai;
5Whoever receives one such little child in my name receives me,
5Ja warle jenipara kupa waka kulno patai talani ngakanani, nulupini ngana patai.
6but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for him if a huge millstone were hung around his neck and that he were sunk in the depths of the sea.
6Warle tanangundru kulno wakawaka, ngakangu morlalu ngundranani, karkarkai, nunkangu ngumu nganai, marda wati jerkalani kurananto ja nina panto mandrani terti jikananto.
7“Woe to the world because of occasions of stumbling! For it must be that the occasions come, but woe to that person through whom the occasion comes!
7Jakajai mitani karkarkanandru! Karkarkana kantji nganananto, ja jakajai nunkangupini kanani, nulu karkarkai.
8If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life maimed or crippled, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into the eternal fire.
8Marali kara, tidnali kara jidnana karkarkanani, ninaia wokaribamai jo jinkangundru woramai; Ngumu jinkangu nganai, tidna wordu kara, nguna wordu kara, tepini wirila; tanali jidna mara mandrunto kara, tidna mandrunto kara turu nguralia woraiati.
9If your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and cast it from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the Gehenna of fire.
9Ja milkieli jidnana karkarkanani, ninaia dukaramai, ja jinkangundru woramai; Ngumu jinkangu nganai, milki kulnunto tepini wirila; tanali jidna milki mandrunto turu pirnaia woraiati.
10See that you don’t despise one of these little ones, for I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven.
10Ngamalkaterianau, jura kulno tanangundru wakawaka waka ngundraiati; ngangau ngani jurangu jatai: Tanani angelali pariwilpani milingera ngakani Ngaperi mudla pariwilpani najila wapaia.
11For the Son of Man came to save that which was lost.
11Ngangau Kanaia Ngatamura wokarana warai kulkala, mina tintaterina warai.
12“What do you think? If a man has one hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine, go to the mountains, and seek that which has gone astray?
12Mina jura ngundrai? Kana kulnujeli 100 tjipi ngamalkanani ja kulno tanangundru tintaterinani, nulu wata 99 mardawonpani worarala nganai ja wapala nganai, nina manila, nau tintaterina warai?
13If he finds it, most certainly I tell you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine which have not gone astray.
13Ja jeruja ngananani, nulu nina mankamankana, morlalu ngani jurangu jatai: Nau nunkangu morla mankila nganai tanangu 99, tana wata tintaterina warai.
14Even so it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.
14Jeruja Ngaperi jurani pariwilpani wata jertapateriai, kulno tanangundru wakawaka tintaterinanto.
15“If your brother sins against you, go, show him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained back your brother.
15Ngatatajeli jinkanali jinkangu madlentji ngankanani, wapau, ja kurukurubamai nina kulnujeli. Nulu jidna ngaranani, jundru ngatata jinkani kulkana warai.
16But if he doesn’t listen, take one or two more with you, that at the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
16Nulu jidna wata ngaranani, maningamai jinkangu kulno kara mandru kara, ngangau jaura pratjana morlalu kuranietja mana mandruni kara parkulani kara parananto.
17If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the assembly. If he refuses to hear the assembly also, let him be to you as a Gentile or a tax collector.
17Nulu tanana bulu ngaranani, mili wolarani kaukaubamai; nulu mili wolara bulu ngaranani, nau jinkangu kana ko ja mardatandra kampanietja jeribaka nganaiatimai.
18Most certainly I tell you, whatever things you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven, and whatever things you release on earth will have been released in heaven.
18Morlalu ngani jurangu jatai: Mina jura mitani dupudupu ngankala nganai, jenia bakana pariwilpani dupudupu nganala nganai; ja mina jura mitani dukarala nganai, jenia bakana pariwilpani walto nganala nganai.
19Again, assuredly I tell you, that if two of you will agree on earth concerning anything that they will ask, it will be done for them by my Father who is in heaven.
19Nakaldra ngani jurangu jatai: Mandru jurangundru kulnukulnuni ngananani poto kulnuni, ja nunkangundru ngatjinani, nina tanali manila nganai ngakani Ngaperandru pariwilpani.
20For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the middle of them.”
20Ngangau woderi mandru kara, parkulu kara, jela ngamai talani ngakanani, naka ngani tanangu terti nganai.“
21Then Peter came and said to him, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Until seven times?”
21Ngadani Petrus nunkangu wokarana wonti ja jatana wonti: „Kaparajai, worderuntja pota ngatatajeli ngakanali ngakangu madlentji ngankala nganai; ja worderuntja pota ngato madlentji nunkani worananto? Pota mara wora ja mandrumata?“
22Jesus said to him, “I don’t tell you until seven times, but, until seventy times seven.
22Jesus nunkangu jatana wonti: „Ngani jinkangu jatai: Wata pota mara wora ja mandruta, a‐ai, 70 pota mara wora ja mandrumata. (Ngantjani‐jaura G. D. XXII. Trinitatis.)
23Therefore the Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.
23Ngangau pariwilpaia milila mitaia kapara jeribaka nganai, nulu ngantjana wonti, milini nunkanani jelali windamala.
24When he had begun to settle, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents.
24Ja nulu matja wonina windamala, tanali mili kulno nunkangu wapalkana wonti, nau nunkangu 10,000 mardatandra pirna wilpanto nganana wonti.
25But because he couldn’t pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, with his wife, his children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.
25Ngangau nulu panila ngamalkana wonti jinkila, kaparali nunkanali jirijiribana wonti, nina ja noa nunkani ja ngatamura nunkani ja warupoto, mina nulu ngamalkana jinkinanto, kalala manila.
26The servant therefore fell down and knelt before him, saying, ‘Lord, have patience with me, and I will repay you all!’
26Naupini mili nunkangu woraterina wonti ja ngatjina wonti nunkangu ja jatana wonti: «Kaparajai, manju nganamai ngakangu, ngato jinkangu warupoto jinkila nganai.»
27The lord of that servant, being moved with compassion, released him and forgave him the debt.
27Kaparali nunkangu milini kalumiltjamiltjarina wonti ja nina kurakana wonti, ja poto wilpa nulu worani patana wonti.
28“But that servant went out and found one of his fellow servants who owed him one hundred denarii, and he grabbed him and took him by the throat, saying, ‘Pay me what you owe!’
28Ja naupini mili dunkana wonti, ja mili nguruni dankamalina wonti, nau nunkangu 100 mardatandra waka wilpanto nganana wonti, ja nulu nina patana wonti ja jupana wonti ja jatana wonti: «Jinkiamai, mina jidni ngakangu wilpanto nganai.»
29“So his fellow servant fell down at his feet and begged him, saying, ‘Have patience with me, and I will repay you!’
29Ja mili nguru nunkangu tidnani woraterina wonti ja nunkangu ngatjina wonti ja jatana wonti: «Manju nganamai ngakangu, ngato jinkangu warupoto jinkila nganai.»
30He would not, but went and cast him into prison until he should pay back that which was due.
30Ja nulu wata ngantjana wonti, a‐ai, nau wapana wonti ja nina kanjangari pungani widmana wonti, nulu poto wilpa jinkinantulu.
31So when his fellow servants saw what was done, they were exceedingly sorry, and came and told their lord all that was done.
31Mili ngurujeli jenia matja najina, mina pantjina warai, tana ngaurongauro pirna pantjina wonti ja wokarana wonti, ja tanali kaparani tananani pratjana kaukaubana wonti.
32Then his lord called him in and said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me.
32Ngadani kaparali nunkanali nina karkana wonti ja nunkangu jatana wonti: «Jidni mili madlentji; ninapini poto wilpa warupoto ngato jinkangu worani patana warai, ngangau jidni ngakangu ngatjina warai;
33Shouldn’t you also have had mercy on your fellow servant, even as I had mercy on you?’
33Wata jidni bakana kalumiltjamiltjarinanto mili nguruni, worderu ngani jinkangu kalumiltjamiltjarina warai?»
34His lord was angry, and delivered him to the tormentors until he should pay all that was due to him.
34Ja kapara nunkani tiririna wonti, ja nulu nina jupanietjani jinkina wonti, nulu nunkangu jinkinantulu, mina nau nunkangu poto wilpa nganana wonti.
35So my heavenly Father will also do to you, if you don’t each forgive your brother from your hearts for his misdeeds.”
35Jeruja bakana Ngaperali ngakanali pariwilpani jurangu ngankala nganai, jura wata ngarali woranani ngatataja jaranaia madlentji.“
