Luke 16
1 And he said also unto his disciples, There was a certain rich man, which had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he had wasted his goods.
Jesu go den yedi o ŋoadikaaba: “O piado den ye ki pia o ŋalimankubilo ke bi ti cua o kani ki kuli o ŋalimanikubilo yeni ke o biani o piama.
2 And he called him, and said unto him, How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship; for thou mayest be no longer steward.
O den yini o ki yedi o: 'N gba ke bi maadi apo be n yeni? Doagidi ki waani nni a ŋalimankubili tuonli fuuli, kelima a kan go baa ki ya tie n ŋalimanikubilo.'
3 Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? for my master taketh away from me the stewardship: I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed.
O ŋalimankubilo yeni den yedi o pali nni: 'N canbaa baa ñani nni li ŋalimankubili tuonli nni. N baa tieni lede? Ki ko bu kpaabu? N kan fidi. ki ya miadi? Bu miabu pia nni i fe.
4 I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.
N bani min baa tieni maama ke o ya ti ñani nni li ŋalimankubili tuonli nni, ke n gedi ki cani yaaba kuli, ban ga n cangu.'
5 So he called every one of his master's debtors unto him, and said unto the first, How much owest thou unto my master?
Lani o den yini o canbaa pandanba kuli yendo yendo. O den yedi yua n kpa cua: 'A pia n canbaa po i ŋa yo?'
6 And he said, An hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write fifty.
O den goa ki yedi o:' kpaboba kobiga.' O ŋalimankubilo den yedi o: 'Ga a panli tili ki kali ki diani tontoni kpaboba piimuu.'
7 Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, An hundred measures of wheat. And he said unto him, Take thy bill, and write fourscore.
O den yedi toa mo: 'A pia n can baa po i ŋa yo?' O den goa ki yedi: 'Halikama kpalipadi kobiga.' O ŋalimanbilo den yedi o: 'Ga a panli tili ki diani kpapadi piinii.'
8 And the master commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light. (aiōn g165)
O canbaa den pagi laa ŋalimankubilo yua n kaa tiegi, kelima o den tieni u fanu.” Jesu den pugini ki yedi: “Handuna yaaba fani leni bi lieba ki cie yaaba n tie mi yenma yaaba. (aiōn g165)
9 And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations. (aiōnios g166)
N yedi yi ke yin taa mani ŋanduna ŋalimani yi n joagini yeni, ki baa danlinba, ke yi yaa ti pia yi ŋalimani ya yogunu, ban n ga yi cangu naani ki pia juodima nni. (aiōnios g166)
10 He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.
Ban fidi ki dugi yua po li bonwaala po, bi go baa dugi o yaapo yo ya bonla n yaba po. Yua n ki tiegi li bonwaala nni, o kan go ya tiegi ya bonla n yaba nni.
11 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
Lanwani bi yaa fidi ki dugi yipo leni yin kubi ŋanduna ŋalimani maama yi n pia i boandi, ŋme baa piani yi o ŋalimanmoano?
12 And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who shall give you that which is your own?
Bi yaa fidi ki dugi yipo leni yin kubi nitoa ŋalimano maama, ŋme baa teni yi ya ŋalimano n tie yi yua?
13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve YHWH and mammon.
Naacemo ba kuli kan fidi ki yaa tuuni canbaanba lie po, kelima o yaa baa nani o canbaakpialo ki bua o canbaalielo, o nan baa taabi o bonkpialo ki fali o bon lielo wani. Yi kan fidim ki ya taa ki tuuni U Tienu po leni ŋalimani po.”
14 And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.
Falisieninba yaaba n den bua i ligi ke likandi den gbadi lankuli ki ñuadi Jesu.
15 And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but YHWH knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of YHWH.
O den yedi ba: “yinba yi moandi ke bi niba n ya nua ke yi tiegi, ama U Tienu wani n bani yi pala. Bi niba n nua ke yaala n pia ti kpiagidi yeni tie caginde U Tienu po.
16 The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the kingdom of YHWH is preached, and every man presseth into it.
Li balimaama leni bi sawalipuaba maama den die ki pundi ŋali Jan Batisi yogunu. Ki cili lanyogunu bi wangi U Tiennu diema laabaaliŋamo. Nilo kuli tieni u paalu ki bua ki kua lienni.
17 And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fail.
Tanpoli leni ki tinga pendima dingi ki cie li balimaama nni ba dianfuudi yenga n bodi ki kan tieni.
18 Whosoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery.
Yua n ñani o pua ki go taa potoa kuli conbi. Yua mo n taa ban ñani yaa pua kuli, o conbi.
19 There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:
O piado den ye ki ye ki laa ti tiaciagidi, ki mangidi o pali daali leni o yeŋanma leni mi jemanma.
20 And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,
O luodo moko den ye ke bi yi o Lasala. O den yen dua o piado yeni diegu buliñoajabu nni ke o gbanandi kuli tie nala.
21 And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.
mi koma den kubi o ŋali ke o den bua ki yaa di yaa jiema n joagidi o piado yeni saaje kaanu kani. Baa i sangbanli den kpendi ki liadi o nala moko.
22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;
To, o luodo den kpe ke malekinba taa o ki geni Abalaŋama kani. O piado moko den ti kpe ke bi piino.
23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. (Hadēs g86)
O den laadi fala bi tinkpiba n ye naankani. O den yaadi ki diidi ŋalifoagima, ki ban laa Abalaŋama leni Lasala ke o ye Abalaŋama kani. (Hadēs g86)
24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
O den tiani ki yedi: 'N baa Abalaŋama, gbadi npo mi niŋima ki soani Lasala wan tu mi ñima leni o nabiyuli po ki cua ki kuugi npo n lanbu, kelima n laadi fala boncianla mi fantama na niini.'
25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
Abalaŋama den goa ki yedi o: 'N biga, Tiadi ke a den baa yaala n ŋani boncianla ŋan den ye ya yogunu, ke Lasala mo den laadi fala boncianla. Moala, o ye ne ke bi baagidi o, a mo laadi fala.
26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.
Lani bebe ka, ku buociangu ye tinba leni yinba siiga, ki teni ke yaaba n bua ki ña ne ki gedi yipo kan fidi, yaaba n bua ki ña yi yaapo mo ki cua ti yaa kani kan fidi.'
27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house:
O piado den yedi: 'Lanwani n nan mia ŋa, `ŋan soani Lasala n baa den denpo.
28 For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
Kelima n pia waamu muu. Wan gedi ki ban tuodi ki waani ba ke bani wani n da cua o naa fala biado kaanu na niini.'
29 Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
Abalaŋama den goa ki yedi o: 'A waamu pia Musa leni bi sawalipuaba kuli, ban cengi ba.'
30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.
O piado den goa ki yedi: 'N baa Abalaŋama, yeni ka, yua n kpe yaa fii bi tinkpinba siiga ki gedi bi kani, bi baalebidi bi yama.'
31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
Abalaŋama den goa ki yedi o: 'Bi yaa yie kaa baa cengi Musa leni bi sawalipuaba, ba o nilo yaa fii bi bi tinkpiba siiga ki gedi bi kani, bi kan cengi o.”'
