Luke 16
1 Jesus also said to His disciples, “There was a rich man whose manager was accused of wasting his possessions.
Jisu ih heliphante loong suh baatta, “Teewadi changteng wasiit angta heh nyamka loong ah heh laksuh suh maak thukta. Changteng wah asuh baat rumta heh laksuh ih bah heh nyamka rah lalangka ni thaajaaha eah.
2 So he called him in to ask, ‘What is this I hear about you? Turn in an account of your management, for you cannot be manager any longer.’
Erah thoidi heh laksuh ah poon ano liita, ‘Arah ngah ih an tiit tumjih japchaat hang? Thoontang ngaakwanho an suh nga nyamka mathan ban maak thuk taha loong rah ah, tumeah an aadowa ih nga mootkaat phanlante takah angko.’
3 The manager said to himself, ‘What shall I do, now that my master is taking away my position? I am too weak to dig and too ashamed to beg.
Laksuh rah ih heh teeteewah suh liita, ‘nga changte wah ih ngah ah arah motang dowa etoohaat et thukte. Eno bah ngah ih tumjih re ang? Ngah ih phek uh tabaam jen phekkang, eno bikthaang suh uh rakmuurakke nih.
4 I know what I will do, so that after my removal from management, people will welcome me into their homes.’
Amadi ngah tumjih reejih ah jat ih ang! Eno nga mootkaat ah thoon abah, nga joonte loong eje neng ih ngah neng nok nah poon et hang.’
5 And he called in each one of his master’s debtors. ‘How much do you owe my master?’ he asked the first.
“Eno heh ih heh changte wah nyamka namte loong mih ah lompoon ano baat rumta. Heh ih jaakhoh wah thoon asuh chengta, ‘an ih nga changte wah dowa mathan nam tu?’
6 ‘A hundred measures of olive oil,’ he answered. ‘Take your bill,’ said the manager. ‘Sit down quickly, and write fifty.’
Olip bangthiing thuung chaasiit, heh ih ngaakbaatta. Mootkaat phanlante rah ih baatta; ‘an di arathan,’ ‘tong uh rook banga et raang uh.’
7 Then he asked another, ‘And how much do you owe?’ ‘A hundred measures of wheat,’ he replied. ‘Take your bill and write eighty,’ he told him.
Eno heh ih wahoh suh we chengta, ‘an ih aleh mathan nam tu?’ ‘Ata tiik haajaat siit thekook namtang,’ heh ih ngaakbaatta. ‘Arah than an ih kotjih ah,’ Laksuh rah ih baatta; ‘Cha asaat et raang uh.’
8 The master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly. For the sons of this age are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the sons of light. (aiōn g165)
“Erah thoidi changte wah ih phanlante maakthiwah ah jeng lachaat thang ih reeraangta asuh egu etjih ih hoonta; tumeah, arah mongrep dowa mina loong ah maama nyamka phanlan suh maakthih totoh weephaak mina loong ah nang ih ah.” (aiōn g165)
9 I tell you, use worldly wealth to make friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, they will welcome you into eternal dwellings. (aiōnios g166)
Erah dam ih Jisu ih li rumta, “Erah thoih ih ngah ih baat rumhala: sen ih arah hatoh nyamka ah maak anno sen joonte ah hoon an, eno erah nyamka loong ah thoon sa doh, sen ah roitang lathoon theng nok adoh soongraang noppoon han. (aiōnios g166)
10 Whoever is faithful with very little will also be faithful with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.
O mina ehinsah adi jen tuungmaang ah erah mina ah elongwah asuh uh ejen tuungmaang eah; o mina ehinsah nah phang thih abah elong nah uh ethih ang ah.
11 So if you have not been faithful with worldly wealth, who will entrust you with true riches?
Erah ang abah, sen hatoh nyamka adoh laphang toongtang kanbah, amiisak nyamka asuh tang mame jen toongtang baat an?
12 And if you have not been faithful with the belongings of another, who will give you belongings of your own?
Erah dam ih mihoh hukkhaak asuh sen laphang toongtang kanbah, an hukkhaak loong ah an suh uh o ih ma koho?
13 No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.”
“Laksuh wasiit ah changte wanyi nok nah tajen moka; heh ih wasiit asuh mongnook ano wasiit ah miksuk jaatjaat et ah; heh ih wasiit dam adoh toongtang ang ah eno wasiit dam adoh toongtangka tah angka ang ah. An ih Rangte nyia ngun enyiinyi an changte tajen et hoonko.
14 The Pharisees, who were lovers of money, heard all of this and were scoffing at Jesus.
Pharisi loong ih erah japchaat rum ano, Jisu ah putbeek ngitkhuung rumta, tumeah neng ih ngun ah mongnook rumta.
15 So He said to them, “You are the ones who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. For what is prized among men is detestable before God.
Jisu ih baat rumta, “Sen loong ih senteewah ah mihoh miksok di epun et noisokte mina loong, enoothong sen tenthun ah Rangte ih jat ih halan. Tumeah marah suh mina ih thaangchaan thoon ih thiik ha ah Rangte raang ih thaangmuh ang ah.
16 The Law and the Prophets were proclaimed until John. Since that time, the gospel of the kingdom of God is being preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.
“Moses Hootthe nyia khowah loong ih raangta loong ah Juungtemte Joon tuk ih maak rumta; erah lih adi Ruurang Ese Rangte Hasong tiit ah baat rumha, eno erah hasong adoh nop suh laat tuutmui rumla.
17 But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for a single stroke of a pen to drop out of the Law.
Enoothong Hootthe nawa jengdang ehinsah esiit taan uh lamatjih erah nang ih bah rang nyi hah mat ah elaang laan ang ah.
18 Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and he who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
“O mina ih heh nusah dowa paak ano mihoh weekap abah heh ih roomjup mat ah kap ha; eno epaakcho minuh we kapte warah eh uh roomjup mat ah kap ha.
19 Now there was a rich man dressed in purple and fine linen, who lived each day in joyous splendor.
“Ehak di changteng wasiit angta heh ah thaangchaan nyuh akhat di choom ano saarookwih laboot labe ih songtongta.
20 And a beggar named Lazarus lay at his gate, covered with sores
Erah di changthih wasiit heh men ah Lajaras, heh sak ah putang ih jeekma arah changteng wah nok kaaluung thong ni ban tongta,
21 and longing to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.
changteng wah tuibung teebun khui ni thaaja arah bantoon phaksate angta. Heh ma adi hui loong ih nep miiklak ih rumta.
22 One day the beggar died and was carried by the angels to Abraham’s side. And the rich man also died and was buried.
“Changthih wah ah tek ano rangsah loong ih Abraham re nah tongthuk suh siit wanrumta rangmong nawa sadung phaksat adi ah. Changteng wah ah tek ano bengkaatta,
23 In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham from afar, with Lazarus by his side. (Hadēs g86)
eno soolam ni, heh rapne ih chamwangta, heh rangkho ko ih toonsok adi haloot ni Abraham ah japtupta, Lajaras ah Abraham re adi tongta. (Hadēs g86)
24 So he cried out, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue. For I am in agony in this fire.’
Eno heh ih poonta, ‘Ewah Abraham! Ngah minchan ih weehang, Lajaras ah daapkaat weeho heh laktiik ah juung adoh tem ano nga tuuhih adoh taan toom tengtem jah weehang, tumeah arah we adi ngah rapne ih chamlang!’
25 But Abraham answered, ‘Child, remember that during your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things. But now he is comforted here, while you are in agony.
“Eno Abraham ih liita,” Dokthun et uh, nga sah, an roidong di an suh jaatrep eseejih loong ah kotaho, erah di Lajaras ah jaatrep ethih loong ah chota. Erah thoidi amadi heh tenroon ih tongla, eno an ah cham elu.
26 And besides all this, a great chasm has been fixed between us and you, so that even those who wish cannot cross from here to you, nor can anyone cross from there to us.’
Erah loong tokkhodi, seng chamchi ni echoongwah haluung jeela, erah doh o mina uh aako nawa an reeko tami daankhoom raari, adoleh an reeko nawa uh aako nah tami daankhoom raaran.’
27 ‘Then I beg you, father,’ he said, ‘send Lazarus to my father’s house,
Changteng wah ih liita, ‘Erah ang abah, an lasih joh weehala, ewah Abraham, seng wah nok nah Lajaras ah kaat thuk weeuh,
28 for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also end up in this place of torment.’
erah di nga nooloong wah banga je ah. Heh kah ano toom choophaan kah weerum ah, arah than chamchojih adoh neng ah taan naktoom mok wang we rumha.’
29 But Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the prophets; let your brothers listen to them.’
“Abraham ih baatta, ‘An nooloong di Moses nyia khowah loong eje neng suh baatte ah; neng ih erah loong jeng ah kapjih ang ah.’
30 ‘No, father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but if someone is sent to them from the dead, they will repent.’
Changteng wah ih ngaakbaatta, ‘Erah ah talaaleh weeka, ewah Abraham! Erah nah o ang abah uh tek nawa ngaaksaat ano neng reenah kah abah, neng rangdah nawa elek eah.’
31 Then Abraham said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets, they will not be persuaded even if someone rises from the dead.’”
Ang abah uh Abraham ih liita, “Neng ih Moses nyia khowah loong jeng ah lachaat rumka bah, tek nawa ngaaksaatte taatje abah uh neng ih tabaam kapka.’”
