Luke 14
1 And it came to pass, on His going into the house of a certain one of the chiefs of the Pharisees, on a Sabbath, to eat bread, that they were watching Him,
| ܘܗܘܐ ܕܟܕ ܥܠ ܠܒܝܬܐ ܕܚܕ ܡܢ ܪܫܐ ܕܦܪܝܫܐ ܕܢܐܟܘܠ ܠܚܡܐ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܕܫܒܬܐ ܘܗܢܘܢ ܢܛܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܗ |
2 and behold, there was a certain dropsical man before Him;
| ܘܗܐ ܓܒܪܐ ܚܕ ܕܟܢܝܫ ܗܘܐ ܡܝܐ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܩܕܡܘܗܝ |
3 and Jesus answering spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”
| ܘܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܤܦܪܐ ܘܠܦܪܝܫܐ ܕܐܢ ܫܠܝܛ ܒܫܒܬܐ ܠܡܐܤܝܘ |
4 And they were silent, and having taken hold of [him], He healed him, and let [him] go;
| ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܫܬܩܘ ܘܐܚܕܗ ܗܘ ܘܐܤܝܗ ܘܫܪܝܗܝ |
5 and answering them He said, “Of which of you will a donkey or ox fall into a pit, and he will not immediately draw it up on the Sabbath day?”
| ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܡܢܘ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܕܢܦܠ ܒܪܗ ܐܘ ܬܘܪܗ ܒܒܪܐ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܕܫܒܬܐ ܘܠܐ ܡܚܕܐ ܕܠܐ ܡܤܩ ܠܗ |
6 And they were not able to answer Him again to these things.
| ܘܠܐ ܐܫܟܚܘ ܠܡܬܠ ܠܗ ܦܬܓܡܐ ܥܠ ܗܕܐ |
7 And He spoke an allegory to those called, marking how they were choosing out the first couches, saying to them,
| ܘܐܡܪ ܗܘܐ ܡܬܠܐ ܠܘܬ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܡܙܡܢܝܢ ܬܡܢ ܥܠ ܕܚܙܐ ܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܕܡܓܒܝܢ ܕܘܟܝܬܐ ܕܪܝܫ ܤܡܟܐ |
8 “When you may be called by anyone to wedding feasts, you may not recline on the first couch, lest [one] more honorable than you may have been called by him,
| ܐܡܬܝ ܕܡܙܕܡܢ ܐܢܬ ܡܢ ܐܢܫ ܠܒܝܬ ܡܫܬܘܬܐ ܠܐ ܬܐܙܠ ܬܤܬܡܟ ܠܟ ܒܪܝܫ ܤܡܟܐ ܕܠܡܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܡܙܡܢ ܬܡܢ ܐܢܫ ܕܡܝܩܪ ܡܢܟ |
9 and he who called you and him having come will say to you, Give to this one [your] place, and then you may begin to occupy the last place with shame.
| ܘܢܐܬܐ ܗܘ ܡܢ ܕܠܟ ܘܠܗ ܩܪܐ ܘܢܐܡܪ ܠܟ ܕܗܒ ܕܘܟܬܐ ܠܗܢܐ ܘܬܒܗܬ ܟܕ ܩܐܡ ܐܢܬ ܘܐܚܕ ܐܢܬ ܕܘܟܬܐ ܐܚܪܝܬܐ |
10 But when you may be called, having gone on, recline in the last place, that when he who called you may come, he may say to you, Friend, come up higher; then you will have glory before those dining with you;
| ܐܠܐ ܡܐ ܕܐܙܕܡܢܬ ܙܠ ܐܤܬܡܟ ܠܟ ܒܚܪܬܐ ܕܡܐ ܕܐܬܐ ܗܘ ܕܩܪܟ ܢܐܡܪ ܠܟ ܪܚܡܝ ܐܬܥܠܐ ܠܥܠ ܘܐܤܬܡܟ ܘܬܗܘܐ ܠܟ ܬܫܒܘܚܬܐ ܩܕܡ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܕܤܡܝܟܝܢ ܥܡܟ |
11 because everyone who is exalting himself will be humbled, and he who is humbling himself will be exalted.”
| ܡܛܠ ܕܟܠ ܕܢܪܝܡ ܢܦܫܗ ܢܬܡܟܟ ܘܟܠ ܕܢܡܟ ܢܦܫܗ ܢܬܬܪܝܡ |
12 And He also said to him who called Him, “When you may make an early meal or a dinner, do not be calling your friends, nor your brothers, nor your relatives, nor rich neighbors, lest they may also call you again, and a repayment may come to you;
| ܐܡܪ ܕܝܢ ܐܦ ܠܗܘ ܕܩܪܝܗܝ ܡܐ ܕܥܒܕ ܐܢܬ ܫܪܘܬܐ ܐܘ ܐܚܫܡܝܬܐ ܠܐ ܬܗܘܐ ܩܪܐ ܪܚܡܝܟ ܐܦܠܐ ܐܚܝܟ ܐܘ ܐܚܝܢܝܟ ܘܠܐ ܫܒܒܝܟ ܥܬܝܪܐ ܕܠܡܐ ܘܐܦ ܗܢܘܢ ܢܩܪܘܢܟ ܘܢܗܘܐ ܠܟ ܦܘܪܥܢܐ ܗܢܐ |
13 but when you may make a feast, be calling poor, maimed, lame, blind,
| ܐܠܐ ܡܐ ܕܥܒܕ ܐܢܬ ܩܘܒܠܐ ܩܪܝ ܠܡܤܟܢܐ ܤܓܝܦܐ ܚܓܝܤܐ ܤܡܝܐ |
14 and you will be blessed, because they have nothing to repay you, for it will be repaid to you in the resurrection of the righteous.”
| ܘܛܘܒܝܟ ܕܠܝܬ ܠܗܘܢ ܕܢܦܪܥܘܢܟ ܢܗܘܐ ܓܝܪ ܦܘܪܥܢܟ ܒܩܝܡܐ ܕܙܕܝܩܐ |
15 And one of those dining with Him, having heard these things, said to Him, “Blessed [is] he who will eat bread in the Kingdom of God”;
| ܟܕ ܫܡܥ ܕܝܢ ܚܕ ܡܢ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܤܡܝܟܝܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܛܘܒܘܗܝ ܠܡܢ ܕܢܐܟܘܠ ܠܚܡܐ ܒܡܠܟܘܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ |
16 and He said to him, “A certain man made a great dinner, and called many,
| ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܝܫܘܥ ܓܒܪܐ ܚܕ ܥܒܕ ܐܚܫܡܝܬܐ ܪܒܬܐ ܘܩܪܐ ܠܤܓܝܐܐ |
17 and he sent his servant at the hour of the dinner to say to those having been called, Be coming, because now all things are ready.
| ܘܫܕܪ ܥܒܕܗ ܒܥܕܢܐ ܕܐܚܫܡܝܬܐ ܕܢܐܡܪ ܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܩܪܝܢ ܗܐ ܟܠܡܕܡ ܡܛܝܒ ܠܟܘܢ ܬܘ |
18 And all began with one [voice] to excuse themselves. The first said to him, I bought a field, and I have need to go forth and see it; I beg of you, have me excused.
| ܘܫܪܝܘ ܡܢ ܚܕ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܠܡܫܬܐܠܘ ܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܩܕܡܝܐ ܩܪܝܬܐ ܙܒܢܬ ܘܐܠܝܨ ܐܢܐ ܕܐܦܘܩ ܐܚܙܝܗ ܒܥܐ ܐܢܐ ܡܢܟ ܫܒܘܩܝܢܝ ܕܡܫܬܐܠ ܐܢܐ |
19 And another said, I bought five yoke of oxen, and I go on to prove them; I beg of you, have me excused.
| ܐܚܪܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܚܡܫܐ ܙܘܓܝܢ ܬܘܪܐ ܙܒܢܬ ܘܐܙܠ ܐܢܐ ܕܐܒܩܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܒܥܐ ܐܢܐ ܡܢܟ ܫܒܘܩܝܢܝ ܕܡܫܬܐܠ ܐܢܐ |
20 And another said, I married a wife, and because of this I am not able to come.
| ܘܐܚܪܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܢܤܒܬ ܘܡܛܠ ܗܕܐ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚ ܐܢܐ ܕܐܬܐ |
21 And that servant having come, told these things to his lord, then the master of the house, having been angry, said to his servant, Go forth quickly into the broad places and lanes of the city, and the poor, and maimed, and lame, and blind, bring in here.
| ܘܐܬܐ ܗܘ ܥܒܕܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܡܪܗ ܗܠܝܢ ܗܝܕܝܢ ܪܓܙ ܡܪܐ ܒܝܬܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܥܒܕܗ ܦܘܩ ܒܥܓܠ ܠܫܘܩܐ ܘܠܒܪܝܬܐ ܕܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܘܐܥܠ ܠܟܐ ܠܡܤܟܢܐ ܘܠܡܟܐܒܐ ܘܠܡܚܓܪܐ ܘܠܥܘܝܪܐ |
22 And the servant said, Lord, it has been done as you commanded, and still there is room.
| ܘܐܡܪ ܥܒܕܐ ܡܪܝ ܗܘܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܦܩܕܬ ܘܬܘܒ ܐܝܬ ܐܬܪܐ |
23 And the lord said to the servant, Go forth into the ways and hedges, and constrain to come in, that my house may be filled;
| ܘܐܡܪ ܡܪܐ ܠܥܒܕܗ ܦܘܩ ܠܐܘܪܚܬܐ ܘܠܒܝܬ ܤܝܓܐ ܘܐܠܘܨ ܕܢܥܠܘܢ ܕܢܬܡܠܐ ܒܝܬܝ |
24 for I say to you that none of those men who have been called will taste of my dinner.”
| ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܕܚܕ ܡܢ ܗܢܘܢ ܐܢܫܐ ܕܩܪܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܐ ܢܛܥܡܘܢ ܡܢ ܐܚܫܡܝܬܝ |
25 And there were going on with Him great multitudes, and having turned, He said to them,
| ܘܟܕ ܐܙܠܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܥܡܗ ܟܢܫܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܐܬܦܢܝ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ |
26 “If anyone comes to Me, and does not hate his own father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brothers, and sisters, and yet even his own life, he is not able to be My disciple;
| ܡܢ ܕܐܬܐ ܠܘܬܝ ܘܠܐ ܤܢܐ ܠܐܒܘܗܝ ܘܠܐܡܗ ܘܠܐܚܘܗܝ ܘܠܐܚܘܬܗ ܘܠܐܢܬܬܗ ܘܠܒܢܘܗܝ ܘܐܦ ܠܢܦܫܗ ܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚ ܕܢܗܘܐ ܠܝ |
27 and whoever does not carry his cross, and come after Me, is not able to be My disciple.
| ܘܡܢ ܕܠܐ ܫܩܠ ܨܠܝܒܗ ܘܐܬܐ ܒܬܪܝ ܬܠܡܝܕܐ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚ ܕܢܗܘܐ ܠܝ |
28 For who of you, willing to build a tower, does not first, having sat down, count the expense, whether he has the things for completing?
| ܡܢܘ ܓܝܪ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܕܨܒܐ ܕܢܒܢܐ ܡܓܕܠܐ ܘܠܐ ܠܘܩܕܡ ܝܬܒ ܚܫܒ ܢܦܩܬܗ ܐܢ ܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܠܡܫܠܡܘܬܗ |
29 Lest that he having laid a foundation, and not being able to finish, all who are beholding may begin to mock him,
| ܕܠܐ ܟܕ ܢܤܝܡ ܫܬܐܤܬܐ ܘܠܐ ܢܫܟܚ ܠܡܫܠܡܘ ܟܠ ܕܚܙܝܢ ܢܗܘܘܢ ܡܒܙܚܝܢ ܒܗ |
30 saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish.
| ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܕܗܢܐ ܓܒܪܐ ܫܪܝ ܠܡܒܢܐ ܘܠܐ ܐܫܟܚ ܠܡܫܠܡܘ |
31 Or what king going on to engage with another king in war, does not, having sat down, first consult if he with ten thousand is able to meet him who is coming against him with twenty thousand?
| ܐܘ ܡܢܘ ܡܠܟܐ ܕܐܙܠ ܠܩܪܒܐ ܠܡܬܟܬܫܘ ܥܡ ܡܠܟܐ ܚܒܪܗ ܘܠܐ ܠܘܩܕܡ ܡܬܪܥܐ ܕܐܢ ܡܫܟܚ ܒܥܤܪܐ ܐܠܦܝܢ ܠܡܐܪܥ ܠܗܘ ܕܐܬܐ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܒܥܤܪܝܢ ܐܠܦܝܢ |
32 And if not so—he being yet a long way off—having sent a delegation, he asks the things for peace.
| ܘܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܠܐ ܥܕ ܗܘ ܪܚܝܩ ܡܢܗ ܡܫܕܪ ܐܝܙܓܕܐ ܘܒܥܐ ܥܠ ܫܠܡܐ |
33 So, then, everyone of you who does not take leave of all that he himself has, is not able to be My disciple.
| ܗܟܢܐ ܟܠܢܫ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܫܒܩ ܟܠܗ ܩܢܝܢܗ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚ ܕܢܗܘܐ ܠܝ ܬܠܡܝܕܐ |
34 The salt [is] good, but if the salt becomes tasteless, with what will it be seasoned?
| ܫܦܝܪܐ ܗܝ ܡܠܚܐ ܐܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܦ ܡܠܚܐ ܬܦܟܗ ܒܡܢܐ ܬܬܡܠܚ |
35 It is neither fit for land nor for manure—they cast it outside. He who is having ears to hear—let him hear.”
| ܠܐ ܠܐܪܥܐ ܘܠܐ ܠܙܒܠܐ ܐܙܠܐ ܠܒܪ ܫܕܝܢ ܠܗ ܡܢ ܕܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܐܕܢܐ ܕܢܫܡܥ ܢܫܡܥ |
