8 Miikɛɛ nyɛ akɛ, ebaaye jalɛ sane ehã amɛ oya. Fɛɛ sɛɛ lɛ, kɛ́ gbɔmɔ Bi lɛ ba lɛ, ani ebaaba ebana hemɔkɛyeli nɛɛ* yɛ shikpɔŋ lɛ nɔ lɛɛlɛŋ?”
9 Agbɛnɛ hu, egba nɔkwɛmɔnɔ* nɛɛ etsɔɔ mɛi komɛi ni kɛ amɛhiɛ fɔ̃ɔ amɛ diɛŋtsɛ amɛjalɛ nɔ ni amɛbuɔ mɛi krokomɛi akɛ amɛjeee nɔ ko lɛ akɛ:
10 “Hii enyɔ komɛi kwɔ kɛtee sɔlemɔ shĩa lɛ koni amɛyasɔle, mɔ kome lɛ Farisifonyo ji lɛ, ni mɔ kroko lɛ, toohelɔ ni.
11 Farisifonyo lɛ ho edamɔ shi ni ebɔi sɔlemɔ yɛ eyitsoŋ ewie nibii nɛɛ, ‘Ao Nyɔŋmɔ, miida bo shi akɛ mitamɔɔɔ mɛi krokomɛi lɛ—ojotswalɔi,* kɛ mɛi ni ejaaa, kɛ gbalafitelɔi*—loo tamɔ toohelɔ nɛɛ po.
12 Mihiɔ ŋmaa shii enyɔ daa otsi; mikɛ nibii fɛɛ ni mináa lɛ mlijai nyɔŋma mli ekome hãa.’+
13 Shi toohelɔ lɛ damɔ sɛɛ shɔŋŋ, ni esumɔɔɔ akɛ eholeɔ ehiŋmɛii anɔ kɛyaa ŋwɛi po, shi etee nɔ egbála etsitsi mai ekɛɛ, ‘Ao Nyɔŋmɔ, dromɔ mi,* mi eshafeelɔ nɛɛ.’+
14 Miikɛɛ nyɛ akɛ, nuu nɛɛ kpeleke shi kɛtee eshĩa ni abu lɛ jalɔ fe nakai Farisifonyo lɛ.+ Ejaakɛ mɔ fɛɛ mɔ ni wóɔ ehe nɔ lɛ, abaaba lɛ shi, shi mɔ fɛɛ mɔ ni baa ehe shi lɛ, abaawó enɔ.”+
15 Agbɛnɛ, mɛi kɛ amɛbifabii hu miiba eŋɔɔ koni etara amɛhe, shi be ni kaselɔi lɛ na enɛ lɛ, amɛbɔi amɛhiɛ wiemɔ.+
16 Shi Yesu tsɛ abifabii lɛ kɛba eŋɔɔ ekɛɛ: “Nyɛhãa gbekɛbii lɛ abaa miŋɔɔ, ni nyɛkatsĩa amɛ gbɛ, ejaakɛ mɛi ni tamɔ nɛkɛ lɛ anɔ ji Nyɔŋmɔ Maŋtsɛyeli lɛ.+
17 Lɛɛlɛŋ, miikɛɛ nyɛ akɛ, mɔ fɛɛ mɔ ni hereee Nyɔŋmɔ Maŋtsɛyeli lɛ tamɔ gbekɛ bibioo ko lɛ, eboteŋ mli kɔkɔɔkɔ.”+
18 Ni nɔyelɔi lɛ ateŋ mɔ kome bi lɛ akɛ: “Tsɔɔlɔ Kpakpa, mɛni esa akɛ mafee koni maná naanɔ wala?”*+
19 Yesu kɛɛ lɛ akɛ: “Mɛni hewɔ otsɛɔ mi mɔ kpakpa? Mɔ ko mɔ ko bɛ ni ji mɔ kpakpa, akɛ ja mɔ kome pɛ, Nyɔŋmɔ.+
20 Ole kitãi lɛ: ‘Kaafite gbãla,*+ kaagbe gbɔmɔ,+ kaaju,+ kaaye amale odase,+ okɛ woo ahã opapa kɛ omami.’”+
21 Kɛkɛ ni ekɛɛ: “Miye enɛɛmɛi fɛɛ anɔ kɛjɛ migbekɛbiiashi.”
22 Be ni Yesu nu enɛ lɛ, ekɛɛ lɛ akɛ, “Eshwɛ bo nɔ kome lolo: Yaahɔ̃ɔ nii ni oyɔɔ lɛ fɛɛ ni ojara nɔ ni obaaná lɛ ohã ohiafoi, ni obaaná jwetri yɛ ŋwɛi; ni oba obatsɔ misɛɛnyiɛlɔ.”+
23 Be ni enu enɛ lɛ, ewerɛ ho ehe waa, ejaakɛ eyɛ nii waa diɛŋtsɛ.+
24 Yesu kwɛ lɛ ni ekɛɛ: “Kwɛ bɔ ni ebaawa kɛhã mɛi ni yɔɔ shika lɛ akɛ amɛbaabote Nyɔŋmɔ Maŋtsɛyeli lɛ mli!+
25 Anɔkwa, ewaaa kɛhãaa afukpɔŋɔ akɛ eeetsɔ nikpɛɛ abui hiŋmɛi mli fe nɔ ni niiatsɛ aaabote Nyɔŋmɔ Maŋtsɛyeli lɛ mli.”+
26 Mɛi ni nu enɛ lɛ kɛɛ: “Namɔ yiwala abaanyɛ ahere mɔ?”+
27 Ekɛɛ akɛ: “Nibii ni gbɔmɛi nyɛɛɛ afee lɛ, Nyɔŋmɔ nyɛɔ efeɔ.”+
28 Shi Petro kɛɛ: “Naa! Wɔshi wɔnibii ni wɔbanyiɛ osɛɛ.”+
29 Ekɛɛ amɛ akɛ: “Lɛɛlɛŋ, miikɛɛ nyɛ akɛ, mɔ ko mɔ ko bɛ ni eshi shĩa loo ŋa loo nyɛmimɛi hii loo fɔlɔi loo bii yɛ Nyɔŋmɔ Maŋtsɛyeli lɛ hewɔ+
30 ni enáŋ toi abɔ yɛ be nɛɛ mli, kɛ naanɔ wala hu yɛ jeŋ ni baaba lɛ* mli.”+
31 Kɛkɛ ni etsɛ Mɛi Nyɔŋma Kɛ Enyɔ lɛ kɛtee afã ni ekɛɛ amɛ akɛ: “Naa! Wɔmiikwɔ kɛmiiya Yerusalem, ni nibii fɛɛ ni atsɔ gbalɔi lɛ anɔ aŋma yɛ gbɔmɔ Bi lɛ he lɛ baaba mli.*+
32 Akɛ nɔkwɛmɔnɔ lɛ, akɛ lɛ baawo jeŋmajiaŋbii+ lɛ adɛŋ ni abaaye ehe fɛo,+ abaafee lɛ niseniianii ni abaafɛ̃ lajɔ̃ ashwie ehe.+

34 Shi amɛnuuu nibii nɛɛ eko eko shishi, ejaakɛ akɛ wiemɔi nɛɛ etee amɛ, ni amɛnuuu nibii ni ewie lɛ ashishi.
35 Agbɛnɛ, be ni Yesu bɛŋkɛɔ Yeriko lɛ, nuu shwilafo ko ta gbɛ lɛ he eeba nii.+
36 Akɛni enu akɛ mɛi babaoo miiho hewɔ lɛ, ebɔi nɔ ni yaa nɔ lɛ he sane bimɔ.
37 Amɛkɛɛ lɛ akɛ: “Yesu, Nazaretnyo lɛ miiho!”
38 Ni ebo ekɛɛ: “Yesu, David Bi, naa mi mɔbɔ!”
39 Ni mɛi ni nyiɛ hiɛ lɛ bɔi ehiɛ wiemɔ, ni amɛkɛɛ lɛ akɛ efee diŋŋ, shi etee nɔ ebolɔ waa fe tsutsu lɛ ekɛɛ: “David Bi, naa mi mɔbɔ!”
40 Ni Yesu wa edamɔ shi ni efã akɛ akɛ nuu lɛ aba eŋɔɔ. Be ni nuu lɛ bɛŋkɛ Yesu lɛ, Yesu bi lɛ akɛ:
41 “Mɛni otaoɔ ni mafee mahã bo?” Ni ekɛɛ: “Nuŋtsɔ, hã mana nii ekoŋŋ.”
42 No hewɔ lɛ, Yesu kɛɛ lɛ akɛ: “Naa nii; ohemɔkɛyeli lɛ etsa bo.”+
43 Ni amrɔ lɛ ena nii, ni ebɔi Yesu sɛɛnyiɛmɔ+ ni ewo Nyɔŋmɔ hiɛ nyam. Agbɛnɛ hu, be ni mɛi lɛ fɛɛ na enɛ lɛ, amɛjie Nyɔŋmɔ yi.+
