Luke 15
1 Then drew near unto him all the publicans and sinners for to hear him.
Issi gallas qaraxa qanxeyssatinne nagaranchchoti Yesuusa timirttiya si7anaw iya yuushuwan shiiqidosona.
2 And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them.
Shin Farisaawetinne higge asttamaareti, “Hayssi uray nagaranchchota shiishidi ekkees, enttara issife mees” yaagidi zuuzummidosona.
3 And he spake this parable unto them, saying,
Yesuusi yaagidi hayssa leemiso enttaw odis;
4 What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it?
“Hintte giddofe issuwas xeetu dorssati de7iyabaa gidikko enttafe issoy dhayikko uddufun tammanne uddufunata bazzon aggidi dhayoyssa demmana gakkanaw koyonnay oonee?
5 And when he hath found [it], he layeth [it] on his shoulders, rejoicing.
Demmida wode ufayttidi ba gannan tookkidi,
6 And when he cometh home, he calleth together [his] friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost.
ba soo simmees. Ba laggettanne shoorota issife xeegidi, ‘Dhayida ta dorssaa demmas, taara issife ufayttite’ yaagees.
7 I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.
Hessadakka, maaroti koshshonna uddufun tammanne uddufun xillotappe aathidi maarotan geliya issi nagaranchchuwa gaason salon gita ufayssi gidees.
8 Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she find [it]?
“Woykko tammu biri de7iya issi maccasiya tammaafe issiya dhayikko demmana gakkanaw xomppe oythada keethaa pittada mintha koyonnara oonee?
9 And when she hath found [it], she calleth [her] friends and [her] neighbours together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I had lost.
Demmida wode ba laggettanne ba shoorota xeegada ‘Dhayida ta issi bira demmida gisho taara wolla ufayttite’ yaagawusu.
10 Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.
Si7ite, hessa mela issi maarotethan geliya nagaranchchuwan Xoossaa kiitanchchota sinthan ufayssi gidees” yaagis.
11 And he said, A certain man had two sons:
Zaaridi Yesuusi, “Issi uraas nam77u nayti de7oosona.
12 And the younger of them said to [his] father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth [to me]. And he divided unto them [his] living.
Enttafe kaalo na7ay ba aawakko, ‘Ta aawaw, ne shaluwappe ta gishuwa taw imma’ yaagis. Aaway ba shaluwa ba naytas shaakkis.
13 And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.
Guutha gallasappe guye kaalo na7ay ba gishuwa ubbaa qachchi ekkidi haaho biitta bis. Yan alttacan shaluwa toochchidi onggis.
14 And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.
I baw de7iyaba ubbaa wurssidaappe guye he biitta ubban mino koshi keyin metootis.
15 And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
Hessa gisho, he biittaa asaappe issuwa soo gaata gelis. Uray iya guduntho heemmana mela ba moothaa yeddis.
16 And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him.
Gudunthoti miya harquwafe maanaw amottis, shin iyokka iyaw immiya asi benttibeenna.
17 And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father’s have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!
Wozani simmin, ‘Aappun ta aawa aylletas kathi wora wodhdhin ta hayssan koshara hayqqanaw gakkadina?’
18 I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,
Denddada ta aawakko bada, ‘Ta aawaw, salon Xoossaa, sa7an nena qohas.
19 And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.
Hizappe ne na7a geetettada xeegettanaw taw bessonna gisho, ne son de7iya aylletappe issuwada tana payda’ yaagana” yaagis.
20 And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.
Hessa gisho, denddidi ba aawakko bis. “Hanoshin, I buroo haahon de7ishin aaway qadhettidi, iyaakko woxxi bidi idimmidi yeeris.
21 And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.
Na7aykka, ‘Ta aawaw salon Xoossaa, sa7an nena ta qohas. Hizappe ne na7a geetettada xeegettanaw bessike’ yaagis.
22 But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put [it] on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on [his] feet:
“Iya aaway aylleta xeegidi, ‘Ellesidi ubbaafe lo77o gidida ma7o ehidi iya mayzite; iya biradhdhen sagaayo, iya tohuwan caamma aathite.
23 And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill [it]; and let us eat, and be merry:
Modhdho gatarmentho ehidi shukkite, moos, ufayttoos.
24 For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.
Ta na7ay hayssi hayqqis, shin ha77i paxis; dhays, shin benttis’ yaagis. Hessafe guye, ufayetethi oykkidosona.
25 Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard musick and dancing.
“He wode bayra na7ay goshsha gaden de7ees. Yaappe yishe soo matishin yethinne gufa girssi si7is.
26 And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.
I, aylletappe issuwa xeegidi haniyabay aybeekko eranaw oychchis.
27 And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound.
Aylley, ‘Ne ishay saro yida gisho ne aaway modhdho gatarmentho iyaw shukkis’ yaagis.
28 And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and intreated him.
“Bayra ishay yilotidi soo gelanawukka koyibeenna. Aaway kare keyidi soo gelana mela iya woossis.
29 And he answering said to [his] father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:
Shin I ba aawakko, ‘Hekko, hayssa mela laythi ta new aylletada ne kiitaappe issuwaka pacisonna new kiitettin ta ta laggetara ufayttana mela hari attoshin issi laaqa deeshe immabaakka.
30 But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.
Hanoshin, hayssi ne na7ay ne shaluwa laymatara doomisidi yin modhdho gatarmentho shukkadasa’” yaagis.
31 And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine.
“Aawaykka, ‘Ta na7aw, neeni ubba wode taara de7aasa, tabay ubbay neessa.
32 It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.
Hayssi ne ishay hayqqis, shin paxis; dhays, shin benttis. Hessa gisho, daro ufayttanaw bessees’ yaagana” yaagis.
