Luke 16
1 And he said also to [his] disciples, There was a certain rich man who had a steward, and he was accused to him as wasting his goods.
Yesu nowachone jopuonjrene niya, “Ne nitie jamoko moro, ma ngʼat mane rito mwandune ne odonjne ni ketho gige.
2 And having called him, he said to him, What [is] this that I hear of thee? give the reckoning of thy stewardship, for thou canst be no longer steward.
Omiyo noluonge ire kendo nopenje ni, ‘En angʼo mawinjo kuomini? Chiw ane kwan kuom gigo duto mirito, nikech ok inyal bedo jarit giga kendo ngangʼ!’
3 And the steward said within himself, What shall I do; for my lord is taking the stewardship from me? I am not able to dig; I am ashamed to beg.
“Jarit noparo kende owuon ni, ‘Abiro timo angʼo koro? Ruodha koro maya tija. Ok an ratego moromo ma dapur, to wiya kuot mondo akwechi.
4 I know what I will do, that when I shall have been removed from the stewardship I may be received into their houses.
Angʼeyo gima abiro timo, ma ka aweyo tich ka, to ji biro rwaka utegi!’
5 And having called to [him] each one of the debtors of his own lord, he said to the first, How much owest thou to my lord?
“Omiyo noluongo jogope ruodhe achiel achiel. Nopenjo mokwongo ni, ‘In-gi gowi mar ruodha marom nadi?’
6 And he said, A hundred baths of oil. And he said to him, Take thy writing and sit down quickly and write fifty.
“Nodwoke ni, ‘Debe mia aboro mag mo.’ “Jarit tich nowachone ni, ‘Bed piny piyo piyo, ikaw kitapi indikie ni, mia angʼwen.’
7 Then he said to another, And thou, how much dost thou owe? And he said, A hundred cors of wheat. And he says to him, Take thy writing and write eighty.
“Eka nopenjo ngʼat mar ariyo ni, ‘In to, gopi oromo adi?’ “Nodwoke ni, ‘Gunia alufu achiel mag ngano.’ “Nowachone ni, ‘Kaw kitapini, indike ni mia aboro.’
8 And the lord praised the unrighteous steward because he had done prudently. For the sons of this world are, for their own generation, more prudent than the sons of light. (aiōn g165)
“Ruoth nopako jarit gige ma ok kareno nikech notiyo gi rieke. Nimar jopinyni ongʼeyo tiyo mariek gi jowadgi moloyo jogo mawuotho e ler. (aiōn g165)
9 And I say to you, Make to yourselves friends with the mammon of unrighteousness, that when it fails ye may be received into the eternal tabernacles. (aiōnios g166)
Awachonu ni tiuru gi mwandu mag piny mondo umakgo osiepe ne un uwegi, mondo ka chiengʼ ma mwandugo orumo, norwaku e kar dak mochwere. (aiōnios g166)
10 He that is faithful in the least is faithful also in much; and he that is unrighteous in the least is unrighteous also in much.
“Ngʼat minyalo geno gi gima tin, inyalo gene bende gi gik mangʼeny, to ngʼat ma ok ja-adiera gi gima tin bende ok nyal bedo ja-adiera gi gik mangʼeny.
11 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who shall entrust to you the true?
Emomiyo ka ok usebedo jo-adiera e tiyo gi mwandu mar pinyni, en ngʼat mane mabiro genou gi mwandu madier?
12 and if ye have not been faithful in that which is another's, who shall give to you your own?
To ka ok usebedo jo-adiera gi mwandu ngʼat machielo, en ngʼat mane madimiu mwandu ma maru uwegi?
13 No servant can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and will love the other, or he will cleave to the one and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
“Onge jatich manyalo tiyo ne ruodhi ariyo. Nimar obiro chayo achiel to ohero machielo, kata obiro chiwore ne achiel to ochayo machielo. Ok inyal tiyo ne Nyasaye kendo ne pesa.”
14 And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things, and mocked him.
Jo-Farisai mane ohero pesa nowinjo magi duto kendo neginyiero kagijaro Yesu.
15 And he said to them, Ye are they who justify themselves before men, but God knows your hearts; for what amongst men is highly thought of is an abomination before God.
Nowachonegi niya, “Un ema utimoru joma kare e wangʼ ji, to Nyasaye ongʼeyo chunyu. Gima okaw ni ber ahinya gi ji, kuom Nyasaye en gima kwero.
16 The law and the prophets [were] until John: from that time the glad tidings of the kingdom of God are announced, and every one forces his way into it.
“Chik kod Jonabi ne nigi teko nyaka chop ndalo mar Johana. Chakre kanyo, Injili mar pinyruoth Nyasaye osebedo kilando, kendo ngʼato ka ngʼato riyore mondo odonjie.
17 But it is easier that the heaven and the earth should pass away than that one tittle of the law should fail.
To yot mondo polo gi piny orum, moloyo ka nukta achiel matinie moloyo olal kuom Chik.
18 Every one who puts away his wife and marries another commits adultery; and every one that marries one put away from a husband commits adultery.
“Ngʼato mowere gi chiege mokendo dhako machielo, odonjo e richo mar terruok, to ngʼat mokendo dhako ma chwore oweyo, bende odonjo e richo mar terruok.
19 Now there was a rich man and he was clothed in purple and fine linen, making good cheer in splendour every day.
“Ne nitie jamoko moro mane rwako lewni mokikore kod lewni mayom ma nengogi tek, kendo nodak e ngima mamalo mar mor ndalo duto.
20 And [there was] a poor man, by name Lazarus, [who] was laid at his gateway full of sores,
E dhorangaye noketie jakwecho miluongoni Lazaro, ma adhonde nopongʼo dende
21 and desiring to be filled with the crumbs which fell from the table of the rich man; but the dogs also coming licked his sores.
kendo nogombo chamo ngʼinjo molwar e bwo mesa jamokono. Kata mana guogi bende ne biro minangʼ adhondene.
22 And it came to pass that the poor man died, and that he was carried away by the angels into the bosom of Abraham. And the rich man also died and was buried.
“Sa nochopo ma jakwechono notho kendo malaika notingʼe, otere e bath Ibrahim. Jamoko bende notho kendo noyike.
23 And in hades lifting up his eyes, being in torments, he sees Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. (Hadēs g86)
Kane en e Piny Joma otho kisande malit, nongʼiyo malo to noneno Ibrahim gi kuma bor kod Lazaro e bathe. (Hadēs g86)
24 And he crying out said, Father Abraham, have compassion on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am suffering in this flame.
Omiyo noluonge kowacho niya, ‘Wuora Ibrahim kecha kendo or Lazaro olut lith lwete e pi mondo okwena lewa, nikech an-gi rem malit e ligek majni.’
25 But Abraham said, Child, recollect that thou hast fully received thy good things in thy lifetime, and likewise Lazarus evil things. But now he is comforted here, and thou art in suffering.
“To Ibrahim nodwoke ni, ‘Wuoda, parie ni e ndalo mar ngimani ne iyudo gik mabeyo, ka Lazaro to ne yudo gik maricho, to koroni oneno maber ka eri, to in inie rem malit.
26 And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm is fixed, so that those who desire to pass hence to you cannot, nor do they who [desire to cross] from there pass over unto us.
To bende moloyo ne mano duto, e kindwa kodi nitie hoho mangʼongo moseketi, mondo otam jogo madwaro aa ka obi iru kata ngʼato ok nyal ngʼado oa koru obi irwa koni.’
27 And he said, I beseech thee then, father, that thou wouldest send him to the house of my father,
“Nodwoko ni, ‘Koro akwayoi, wuora, or Lazaro odhi od wuora,
28 for I have five brothers, so that he may earnestly testify to them, that they also may not come to this place of torment.
nimar an-gi owetena abich. Odhiyo osiemgi, mondo kik gin bende gibi e kar sand malitni.’
29 But Abraham says to him, They have Moses and the prophets: let them hear them.
“Ibrahim nodwoke ni, ‘Gin kod Musa gi Jonabi, owinjore giwinjgi.’
30 But he said, Nay, father Abraham, but if one from the dead should go to them, they will repent.
“Nowacho ni, ‘Ooyo wuonwa Ibrahim, to ka ngʼato oa kuom joma otho modhi irgi, to gibiro weyo richo.’
31 And he said to him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, not even if one rise from among [the] dead will they be persuaded.
“Nowachone ni, ‘Ka ok ginyal winjo Musa gi Jonabi, ok ginyal yie winjo kata ngʼato mochier oa kuom joma otho.’”
