Ma:diu 18
1 Amo esoga, Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu dunu ilia da Yesuma misini, amane sia: i, “Gode Ea Hinadafa Hou ganodini nowa da baligi bagadela: ?”
At that time the disciples approached Jesus saying, “Who then is greater in the kingdom of the heavens?”
2 Yesu da mano fonobahadi Ema misa: ne sia: i. E da amo mano fonobahadi ilia gilisisu ganodini ilia midadi aligila misa: ne sia: i.
So Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them,
3 Amalalu, E da amane sia: i, “Na da dafawane sia: sa! Dilia da hame sinidigili, dilia hou amo mano ea hou agoane bu hame hamosea, dilia da Gode Ea Hinadafa hou ganodini masunu hamedei ba: mu.
and said: “Assuredly I say to you, unless you change and become like little children, you will not enter the kingdom of the heavens.
4 Amaiba: le, nowa dunu da ea hou fonobosea, goe mano fonobahadi ea hou agoane bu hamosea, amo dunu fawane da Gode Ea Hinadafa Hou ganodini baligi bagade ba: mu.
Therefore whoever will humble himself like this little child, he is the greater in the kingdom of the heavens.
5 Nowa da Na Dioba: le, mano fonobahadi goe mano agoane amo hahawane yosia: sea, e da Na amola hahawane yosia: sa.
“Whoever receives one little child like this in my name, receives me;
6 Nowa dunu da mano fonobahadi afae ea Nama dafawaneyale dawa: su hou yolesima: ne ado ba: sea, amo dunu ea se iasu dabe lamu da dunu amo ea galogoaga igi bagadedafa la: gili, hano wayabo bagadega galadigi dagoi ba: i, amo ea se iasu bagadewane baligimu.
but whoever should cause one of these little ones who believe into me to fall, it would be better for him if a large millstone were hung on his neck and he were drowned in the depth of the sea!
7 Be eno dunu ilia hou hamobeba: le, dunu eno da dafamu. Amaiba: le osobo bagade fi da se bagade nabimu. Amo hou da doaga: mu. Be dafama: ne ado ba: su dunu da se iasu bagadedafa ba: mu.
Woe to the world because of offenses! Now it is necessary that offenses come, but woe to that person by whom the offense comes!
8 Dia lobo ea hou o dia emo ea hou hamobeba: le, di da wadela: le hamosea, di da eso huluane mae haba: dole nenanebe lalu ganodini, dia lobo adunawane amola emo adunawane ahoasa: besa: le, dia emo o lobo damuni fasima. Di da Fifi Ahoanusu ganodini lobo o emo afaewane masunu da defea. (aiōnios g166)
“If your hand or your foot is causing you to fall, cut them off and throw them away! It is better for you to enter into the life lame or maimed than to be thrown into the everlasting fire, having two hands or two feet. (aiōnios g166)
9 Dia siga ba: beba: le dafamu galea, defea, dia si duga: le fasima. Di da si afadafa fawane Fifi Ahoanusu amo ganodini masunu da defea. Be si adunawane gala amo Helo laluga ha: digi dagoi ba: mu da defea hame. (Geenna g1067)
And if your eye is causing you to fall, tear it out and throw it away! It is better for you to enter into the life one eyed than to be thrown into the fiery Hell, having two eyes. (Geenna g1067)
10 “Mano fonobahadi afae ea hou da hamedei, amo maedafa dawa: ma! Na da dilima sia: sa! Eso huluane Hebene ganodini, ilia a: igele fidisu dunu da Na Ada ea odagi ba: lala.
“See to it that you do not despise one of these little ones, for I say to you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father, who is in the heavens.
11 Dunu Egefe da fisi liligi bu lamusa: misi dagoi.
For the Son of the Man came to save the lost.
12 Dilia adi dawa: bela: ? Sibi ouligisu da sibi 100 agoane ouligibiba: le, afadafa fisisia, e da eno 99 yolesili, amo sibi fisi afae hogoma: bela: ?
What do you think? If some man has a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine in the mountains to go and search for the stray?
13 Dafawane! E da hogomu! Bu ba: sea, e da nodone bagade sia: mu. Ea hahawane hou amo sibi ba: beba: le, sibi hame fisi99ilima hahawane hou, da bagadewane baligimu
And if he happens to find it, assuredly I say to you, he rejoices more over it than over the ninety-nine that did not go astray.
14 Amaiba: le, mano fonobahadi afadafa fawane da fisili udigili bogomu, Gode Ea higa: i hodosa.
Likewise it is not a desire, in the view of your Father in heaven, that one of these little ones should be wasted.
15 Dia fi dunu da dima wadela: le hamoi galea, di ema asili, wamowane hima hidadea nabima. E da dia sia: nabasea, e da dia fi dunu bu esalumu.
“Now if your brother sins against you, go, confront him between you and him alone. If he hears you, you have won your brother.
16 Be e da dia sia: hame nabasea, dunu afadafa o aduna eno lale, ema bu fofada: ma! Dunu aduna o udiana ilia da ba: su hou hamosea, dia sia: da dafawane, dunu eno ilia da ba: mu.
But should he not hear, take along with you one or two more, so that every word may be established by the mouth of two or three witnesses.
17 Be wadela: i hamosu dunu da ilia sia: hame nabasea, Gode Ea Fa: no Bobogesu Fi dunu huluane ilima adoma. E da ilia sia: amola hame nabasea, dilia amo dunu fadegama. Dilia da amo dunu ga fi wadela: i hamosu dunu defele ba: mu da defea.
And should he refuse to hear them, tell it to the congregation. But should he refuse to hear even the congregation, let him be to you just like the heathen and the tax collector.
18 Na da dafawane sia: sa! Dilia osobo bagadega logo ga: sisia, amo logo da Hebene ganodini ga: si dagoi ba: mu. Dilia da osobo bagadega amo logo bu doasisia, amo logo da Hebene ganodini doasi dagoi ba: mu.
“Assuredly I say to you, whatever (pl.) you (pl.) may bind on earth will have been bound in heaven, and whatever you may loose on earth will have been loosed in heaven.
19 Na da eno dilima olelesa. Dunu aduna da gilisili hou afadafa hamomusa: sia: ne gadosea, Na Ada Hebene ganodini esala da amo hou hamomu.
Assuredly again, I say to you that if two of you should agree on earth about any subject whatever that they may ask, it will be done for them by my Father who is in heaven.
20 Bai dunu aduna o udiana da Na Dioba: le gilisisia, Na amola da ilima gilisi dagoi ba: mu.
Because where there are two or three gathered together into my name, there I am in their midst!”
21 Bida da Yesuma misini, amane sia: i, “Hina! Na ola o na eya nama wadela: le hamonanea, na da eso habodayane ea wadela: i hou gogolema: ne olofoma: bela: ? Fesuale agoane gogolema: ne olofoma: bela: ?”
Then Peter approached Him and said, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him; up to seven times?”
22 Yesu E bu adole i, “Fesuale agoane hame, be 77 agoane osia: idafa amo ea wadela: i hou gogolema: ne olofoma.
Jesus says to him: “Not, I tell you, up to seven, but up to seventy-seven times!
23 Bai Gode Ea Hinadafa hou da agoaiwane gala. Osobo bagade hina bagade dunu afae da ea hawa: hamosu dunuma ilia bidi lasu hou abodemusa: dawa: i galu.
“Therefore the kingdom of the heavens is like a certain king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.
24 Hawa: hamosu dunu afadafa ema, e da muni bagadedafa dabe lamu galu.
And as he began to settle up, one debtor of ten thousand talents was brought to him.
25 Be amo hawa: hamosu dunu da dabe imunu hamedeiba: le, hina bagade da amo dunu, ea uda, ea mano amola ea liligi huluane bidi lale, amo muni ema ima: ne sia: i.
But since he had nothing with which to repay, his lord commanded that he be sold, with his wife and children and everything he had, so as to be repaid.
26 Amo sia: nababeba: le, hawa: hamosu dunu da muguni bugili, ea hinama amane sia: i, ‘Nama asigiba: le ouesaloma! Na da huluane imunu.’
So then the servant fell down and did obeisance to him saying, ‘Lord, be patient with me and I will repay you all.’
27 Amalalu, hina bagade da ema asigiba: le, amane sia: i, ‘Defea! Yolema! Dabe huluane yolele, mae ima.’
So the lord of that servant, having compassion, released him and forgave him the loan.
28 Be amo hawa: hamosu dunu da asili, eno hawa: hamosu dunu ba: i. Amo hawa: hamosu dunu da ema dabe fonobahadi fawane imunu galu. E da ea galogoa gaguli, gasawane sia: i, ‘Na dabe wahadafa nagili ima!’
“But when that servant went out he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii; and grabbing him he started choking him saying, ‘Pay me back what you owe!’
29 Amalalu, ea na: iyado da diasa: ili, muguni bugili amane sia: i, ‘Nama asigiba: le, ouesaloma! Na da imunu!’
So his fellow servant fell down at his feet and kept begging him saying, ‘Be patient with me and I will pay you back.’
30 Be e da hame asigi. E da amo dunu se iasu diasuga galadigili, bidi huluane iabeba: le fawane se iasu diasu logo bu doasima: ne sia: i.
But he would not; instead he went and threw him into prison until he should pay back what was owed.
31 Eno hawa: hamosu dunu huluane da amo hou ba: beba: le, se nabi. Ilia da hina bagadema asili, amo hou huluane ema olelei.
But when his fellow servants saw what had happened they were really grieved, and they went and reported to their lord everything that had happened.
32 Amalalu, hina bagade da amo dunu ema misa: ne sia: i. E da ema amane sia: i, ‘Di wadela: i hawa: hamosu dunu! Di da nama fofada: iba: le, na da dia dabe imunu huluane gogolema: ne olofoi dagoi.
Then summoning him the lord says to him: ‘Malignant servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me.
33 Di da na asigi hou defele, dia na: iyadoma asigimu da defea galu!’
Were you also not obligated to have mercy on your fellow servant, just as I had mercy on you?’
34 Hina bagade da ougiba: le, amo hawa: hamosu dunu se iasu diasu ouligisu dunuma asunasi. Se iasu ianu, dabe huluane ia dagoiba: le fawane yolema, e sia: i.
So in anger the lord handed him over to the torturers until he should repay all that was owed to him.
35 Amo hou defele, dilia da dilia na: iyado ilia hou hame gogolema: ne olofosea, Na Ada da amo hou dilima hamomu.”
“My heavenly Father will handle you just like that, if each of you does not forgive his brother his trespasses, from the heart.”
