3 Na Yeso kabare na, “Eyang eza ying be pirǝ, beleng na, 4 Legoone le ngmǝ a Yohana ondo batisma a suri a Ashili na, aromo ai?”

5 Nane beya tokpwe tone, nane laka o bekaana, “Te bekaana, ‘Wa suri a Ashili,’ a kayo bekaana, ‘Eyaka eta e kabare ka wai ne?’ 6 Kanza te bekaana, ‘Wa suri aromo,’ aromo a cake neyo teza ro ka cale, o bekaana komana rose Yohana ondo o beya angmǝ ka mawo ma Ashili wai.”

7 Nane maare ko bekaa kai na, “Teta rosa araaka le suri ne ne.”

8 Na Yeso bekaa ne na, “Mima anta bele o ying ka legoone le mana eyang eza epa eka eya gonta me ne.”

9 Na Yeso ka lyǝ izi ka o baala aromo angmǝ a gerpo na, “Ondo wa rene amea waye ka ara o inabi,[a] na wa nya ana ondo ogole arame a wa ale a begere a makeke ma yende, na wa rabo a saname. 10 Nangka a were o shende e inabi waye, na wa tong ozara wai oyende ana ogole me kawa mangka ayana o inabi me ba ne.

13 “Na ondo ara o inabi me wa bekaana, ‘Eya eyang ya naname? Eyang tonga kena kang ka lome kamea ang yeme, ang rose obena neyo tare kai.’

14 “Pate ka nyimi nangka ana ogole me ne laka kai nane bekaa tokpwe to ne na, ‘Kando kamea kayo jeka ocǝ me kaana, baya ate wong kai, a ocǝ ondo arame wa itǝ aoro.’ 15 Nane wong kai ane tare e keze kai a malo ara inabi.

“Eya ondo arame wayo ya ne? 16 Wayo deya ka wa wong ana ogole me, a wa nya ana ondo ara ame.” Nangka aromo ka neya akwilǝ a Ashili ne kone nyimi nane bekaana, “Kana Ashili baya nyimi aye ne.”

17 Na Yeso karene a yizi a dongdong aka pirkǝ na, “Eya bekazo ba ngmǝ epa ena a ana o beya angmǝ ka mawo ma Ashili ne wela?[b]

20 Na ne gere orona o meke o kai kane ote kai ka ka rizi aza epa eka ka yo beka. Adorana ka lyǝ a taara te ogomo makeke mame.

23 Na Yeso ka ka rose anyong ane a buru naka bekaa ne na, 24 “Woreng na beyo bemate. O ululu ka leze le mana a aza beyo bemate me?”

25 Nane bekaana, “O Ogomo ogong o Roma Kaisar wai.”

Naka bekaa ne na, “Nyimi waaza nyana Ogomo ogong o Roma Kaisar epa eka e Ogomo ogong o Roma Kaisar e, e nya Ashili epa e Ashili e.”

26 Nane ta cǝ orona o meke o kai ne aza epa eka ka beka arakaname a nyimi aromo. Na epa eme tere ne okpwe aza o kabare o kap o be pirǝ be ne, nane kome a set.

27 MaSadukiya ma yende,[d] kane beeze na malo o gbwǝ a era ta era ne, ne deye a Yeso ka be pirǝ. Nane bekaana, 28 “Ondo baala, Mosa ondo o beya a ngmǝ ka mawo ma Ashili wa wele ro oroka o bena, ondo wa gbwǝ a wa baya ondaye zora ayana, wa gwara o bena orone o wai ana ondaye me kawa ngmeng wai ayana. 29 A bena, arone yende ne zene neya a sondaare. Ondo o bora a nyimi one wa ana ondaye na wa gbwi zora kena. 30 Na o leere wa ana ondaye me na wa gbwi zora kena. 31 Na o taaro one wa ana ondaye me, nyimia ne anza ondaye me a ale orone o sondaare nane gbwizi zora ayana. 32 O maare na ondaye me wa gbwi. 33 A lengme lo era andaaka ne gbwizǝ, wayo itǝ ondaye mana a nyimi one, nangka pate one a sondaare ne tukǝ o ana o wai?”

34 Na Yeso bekaa ne na, “Aromo a were ana andaleme anza andaye, andaye kanza ne aleze a todo. 35 Pate ka nyimi andaaka neya kap ka were name ane kang bare o era a malo gbwǝ, ne era neta ana andaye ne a andaye kanza ne era ane ta ale a todo ne, 36 ne era neta gbwǝ kanza ne, aza o bena ne itǝ na atoma a surǝ a zaa shili.
