Luke 16
1 And another time he said to the disciples, There was a certain man of great wealth who had a servant; and it was said to him that this servant was wasting his goods.
At sinabi rin naman niya sa mga alagad, May isang taong mayaman, na may isang katiwala; at ito'y isinumbong sa kaniya na siya'y nagsisira ng kaniyang mga pag-aari.
2 And he sent for him and said, What is this which is said about you? give me an account of all you have done, for you will no longer be the manager of my property.
At tinawag niya siya, at sa kaniya'y sinabi, Ano ito na nababalitaan ko tungkol sa iyo? magbigay sulit ka ng pagiging katiwala; sapagka't hindi ka na maaaring maging katiwala pa.
3 And the servant said to himself, What am I to do now that my lord takes away my position? I have not enough strength for working in the fields, and I would be shamed if I made requests for money from people in the streets.
At sinabi ng katiwala sa kaniyang sarili, Anong gagawin ko, yamang inaalis sa akin ng panginoon ko ang pagiging katiwala? Magdukal ng lupa'y wala akong kaya; magpalimos ay nahihiya ako.
4 I have come to a decision what to do, so that when I am put out of my position they will take me into their houses.
Nalalaman ko na ang gagawin ko, upang, kung mapaalis ako sa pagiging katiwala, ako ay matanggap nila sa kanilang mga bahay.
5 And sending for every one who was in debt to his lord he said to the first, What is the amount of your debt to my lord?
At pagtawag niya sa bawa't isa sa mga may utang sa kaniyang panginoon, ay sinabi niya sa una, Gaano ang utang mo sa aking panginoon?
6 And he said, A hundred measures of oil. And he said, Take your account straight away and put down fifty.
At sinabi niya, Isang daang takal na langis. At sinabi niya sa kaniya, Abutin mo ang iyong kasulatan, at maupo kang madali at isulat mong limangpu.
7 Then he said to another, What is the amount of your debt? And he said, A hundred measures of grain. And he said to him, Take your account and put down eighty.
Nang magkagayon ay sinabi niya sa iba, At ikaw, gaano ang utang mo? At sinabi niya, Isang daang takal na trigo. Sinabi niya sa kaniya, Abutin mo ang iyong kasulatan, at isulat mong walongpu.
8 And his lord was pleased with the false servant, because he had been wise; for the sons of this world are wiser in relation to their generation than the sons of light. (aiōn g165)
At pinuri ng kaniyang panginoon ang lilong katiwala, sapagka't siya'y gumawang may katalinuhan: sapagka't ang mga anak ng sanglibutang ito, sa kanilang sariling lahi, ay matatalino kay sa mga anak ng ilaw. (aiōn g165)
9 And I say to you, Make friends for yourselves through the wealth of this life, so that when it comes to an end, you may be taken into the eternal resting-places. (aiōnios g166)
At sinabi ko sa inyo, Makipagkaibigan kayo sa pamamagitan ng kayamanan ng kasamaan; upang, kung kayo'y magkulang, ay kanilang tanggapin kayo sa mga walang hanggang tabernakulo. (aiōnios g166)
10 He who is true in a little, is true in much; he who is false in small things, is false in great.
Ang mapagtapat sa kakaunti ay mapagtapat din naman sa marami: at ang di matuwid sa kakaunti ay di rin naman matuwid sa marami.
11 If, then, you have not been true in your use of the wealth of this life, who will give into your care the true wealth?
Kung kayo nga'y di naging mapagtapat sa masamang kayamanan, sino nga ang magkakatiwala sa inyo ng mga tunay na kayamanan?
12 And if you have not been true in your care of the property of other people, who will give you that which is yours?
At kung di kayo naging mapagtapat sa kayamanan ng iba, sino ang sa inyo'y magbibigay ng sa inyong sarili.
13 No man may be a servant to two masters: for he will have hate for the one and love for the other; or he will keep to the one and have no respect for the other. You may not be servants of God and of wealth.
Walang aliping makapaglilingkod sa dalawang panginoon: sapagka't kapopootan niya ang isa, at iibigin ang ikalawa; o di kaya'y magtatapat sa isa, at pawawalang halaga ang ikalawa. Hindi kayo makapaglilingkod sa Dios at sa mga kayamanan.
14 And the Pharisees, who had a great love of money, hearing these things, were making sport of him.
At ang mga Fariseo, na pawang maibigin sa salapi, ay nangakikinig ng lahat ng mga bagay na ito; at siya'y tinutuya nila.
15 And he said, You take care to seem right in the eyes of men, but God sees your hearts: and those things which are important in the opinion of men, are evil in the eyes of God.
At sinabi niya sa kanila, Kayo ang nangagaaring-ganap sa inyong sarili sa paningin ng mga tao; datapuwa't nakikilala ng Dios ang inyong mga puso; sapagka't ang dinadakila ng mga tao ay kasuklamsuklam sa paningin ng Dios.
16 The law and the prophets were till John: but then came the preaching of the kingdom of God, and everyone makes his way into it by force.
Ang kautusan at ang mga propeta ay nanatili hanggang kay Juan: mula noo'y ang evangelio ng kaharian ng Dios ay ipinangangaral, at ang bawa't tao ay pumapasok doon na nagpipilit.
17 But heaven and earth will come to an end before the smallest letter of the law may be dropped out.
Nguni't lubhang magaan pa ang mangawala ang langit at ang lupa, kay sa mahulog ang isang kudlit ng kautusan.
18 Everyone who puts away his wife and takes another, is a false husband: and he who is married to a woman whose husband has put her away, is no true husband to her.
Ang bawa't lalaki na inihihiwalay ang kaniyang asawa, at magasawa sa iba, ay nagkakasala ng pangangalunya: at ang magasawa sa babaing inihiwalay ng kaniyang asawa ay nagkakasala ng pangangalunya.
19 Now there was a certain man of great wealth, who was dressed in fair clothing of purple and delicate linen, and was shining and glad every day.
Mayroon ngang isang taong mayaman, at siya'y nagdaramit ng kulay ube at maselang lino, at sa araw-araw ay kumakain ng sagana:
20 And a certain poor man, named Lazarus, was stretched out at his door, full of wounds,
At isang pulubi na ang pangala'y Lazaro, lipos ng mga sugat, ay inilalagay sa kaniyang pintuan,
21 Desiring the broken bits of food which came from the table of the man of wealth; and even the dogs came and put their tongues on his wounds.
At naghahangad na mapakain ng mga mumo na nangahuhulog mula sa dulang ng mayaman; oo, at lumapit pati ang mga aso at hinihimuran ang kaniyang mga sugat.
22 And in time the poor man came to his end, and angels took him to Abraham's breast. And the man of wealth came to his end, and was put in the earth.
At nangyari, na namatay ang pulubi at siya'y dinala ng mga anghel sa sinapupunan ni Abraham: at namatay naman ang mayaman, at inilibing.
23 And in hell, being in great pain, lifting up his eyes he saw Abraham, far away, and Lazarus on his breast. (Hadēs g86)
At sa Hades na nasa mga pagdurusa ay itiningin niya ang kaniyang mga mata, at natanaw sa malayo si Abraham, at si Lazaro ay nasa kaniyang sinapupunan. (Hadēs g86)
24 And he gave a cry and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus, so that he may put the end of his finger in water and put it on my tongue, for I am cruelly burning in this flame.
At siya'y sumigaw at sinabi, Amang Abraham, maawa ka sa akin, at suguin mo si Lazaro, upang itubog niya sa tubig ang dulo ng kaniyang daliri, at palamigin ang aking dila; sapagka't naghihirap ako sa alab na ito.
25 But Abraham said, Keep in mind, my son, that when you were living, you had your good things, while Lazarus had evil things: but now, he is comforted and you are in pain.
Datapuwa't sinabi ni Abraham, Anak, alalahanin mo na ikaw ay tumanggap ng iyong mabubuting bagay sa iyong pamumuhay, at si Lazaro sa gayon ding paraan ay masasamang bagay: datapuwa't ngayon, ay inaaliw siya rini, at ikaw ay nasa kahirapan.
26 And in addition, there is a deep division fixed between us and you, so that those who might go from here to you are not able to do so, and no one may come from you to us.
At bukod sa lahat ng ito, ay may isang malaking banging nakalagay sa pagitan namin at ninyo, upang ang mga magibig tumawid buhat dini hanggang sa inyo ay hindi maari, at gayon din walang makatawid mula diyan hanggang sa amin.
27 And he said, Father, it is my request that you will send him to my father's house;
At sinabi niya, Ipinamamanhik ko nga sa iyo, ama, na suguin mo siya sa bahay ng aking ama;
28 For I have five brothers; and let him give them an account of these things, so that they may not come to this place of pain.
Sapagka't ako'y may limang kapatid na lalake; upang sa kanila'y patotohanan niya, baka pati sila'y mangaparito sa dakong ito ng pagdurusa.
29 But Abraham said, They have Moses and the prophets; let them give ear to what they say.
Datapuwa't sinabi ni Abraham, Nasa kanila si Moises at ang mga propeta; bayaang sila'y pakinggan nila.
30 And he said, No, father Abraham, but if someone went to them from the dead, their hearts would be changed.
At sinabi niya, Hindi amang Abraham: datapuwa't kung ang isang mula sa mga patay ay makaparoon sa kanila, sila'y mangagsisisi.
31 And he said to him, If they will not give attention to Moses and the prophets, they will not be moved even if someone comes back from the dead.
At sinabi niya sa kaniya, Kung di nila pinakikinggan si Moises at ang mga propeta, ay di rin mangahihikayat sila, kahit ang isa'y magbangon sa mga patay.
