1 Wen Jedus done tell e ciple dem wa dey spose fa do, e lef dey an gone ta dey town fa teach an tell de people de Good Nyews.

2 Now den, wen John, wa been een de jailhouse, yeh bout dem ting dat Jedus Christ beena do, e sen e ciple dem ta Jedus. 3 Dey aks Jedus say, “Ya de Messiah wa been gwine come, or we spose fa look fa noda poson?”

De deef people able fa yeh, an dem wa done dead git op an lib gin. An de po people da yeh de Good Nyews. 6 De one wa ain loss e fait een me, e bless fa true.”

7 Now wen dem ciple ob John beena gwine back, Jedus tell de great crowd bout John. E say, “Wen oona gone ta John een de wildaness, wa ya been spect fa see? Ya spect fa see a piece ob grass wa da bend down wen de breeze da blow? No, ya ain gone fa see dat. 8 Den wa ya gone fa see? Ya gone fa see a man dress op een fine cloes? No, ya ain gone fa see dat. Cause dem wa dress op een fine cloes, dey lib een house wa blongst ta king dem. 9 Bot fa true, wa ya gone fa see? Ya gone fa see a prophet, ainty? An A da tell oona de trute, oona done see de man wa mo greata den all de oda prophet dem. 10 John de one dey write bout een God wod say,

11 A da tell oona fa true, John wa Bactize, e mo greata den all de people wa eba lib. Stillyet, de poson wa leas ob all dem people wa God da rule, dat poson mo greata den John. 12 Fom de time wen John wa Bactize tell people bout God rule, op til now, dey been plenty people da fight ginst God rule fa tek um way. 13 All de prophet dem an de Law wa God gii Moses, op til John come, dey all taak bout God rule. 14 An ef oona wahn fa bleebe wa dey tell oona, John de man wa dey beena taak bout wen dey say Elijah gwine come back. 15 Oona wa got yea fa yeh, oona mus yeh wa A say!”

16 Jedus say, “De people dat lib een dis day yah, wa kin A say dey like? Dem people stan like chullun wa da seddown ta de maakut. Dey da holla ta oda chullun say,

17 ‘We done play music fa oona,

18 Wen John come, e fast fa woshup God an e ain drink no wine, an dey say, ‘Dat man got ebil sperit eenside um!’ 19 Now wen de Man wa Come fom God come, e da nyam an drink, an dey say, ‘Look yah, dat man da stuff e gut an e a dronka! Dem people wa da geda tax an dem oda people wa ain fit fa mix wid Jew people, dem e fren!’ Stillyet, dem wa da waak scraight wid God, dey gwine show dat God wise fa true.”
