< Luke 15 >

1 Now all the tax collectors and sinners were coming close to him to hear him.
Saasiit sokse seete nyia danhaatcho mina loong Jisu jeng boichaat thokrum taha,
2 The Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying, "This man welcomes sinners, and eats with them."
Pharisi nyia Hootthe Nyootte loong ah suusu ih waan rumta, “Arah mih rah ih danhaatcho mina loong ah poon ano neng damdi nep uh roong phaksah ruh eha!”
3 He told them this parable.
Erah thoidi Jisu ih arah tiitthaak tiit ah baatta:
4 "Which one of you, if you had one hundred sheep, and lost one of them, would not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one that was lost, until he found it?
“Jengthaak ih sen wasiit thandoh chaasiit taan saapsah toom angthaak ah, eno erah dung dowa esiit ah emat eah bah—an ih tumjih theng ah? An ih rook akhuh akhuh rah naamphak ban riim thuk uno esiit moong khoomta saapsah rah maang japtuptup ih jam sokkah uh.
5 When he has found it, he carries it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
Eno chojam uno, rapne ih roonsoon damdoh saapsah rah an sookkaang nah toonpi wan uh
6 When he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost.'
eno an nok nah ngaak piiwan uh. Erah lidoh an joonte nyi ankhuung antok loong ah lompoon uno baat uh, ‘Ngah rapne ih roonlang nga saapsah mata ah japjam angno ah. Erah thoidi seng ih saroom hoon ih, raahan!’
7 I tell you that even so there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety-nine righteous people who need no repentance.
Erah likhiik, ngah ih baat rumhala, mina wasiit heh rangdah nawa ngaaklek abah rangmong hasong nah rapne tenroon ang ah, rook akhuh akhuh elong elang mina loong neng rangdah nawa ngaaklek suh lanookka loong ah nang ih ah.
8 Or what woman, if she had ten drachma coins, if she lost one drachma coin, would not light a lamp, sweep the house, and seek diligently until she found it?
“Adoleh jengthaak ih minuh esiit ih ngunkholok lo asih dowa loosiit ah maat haat abah heh ih tumjih et ah? Heh ih weetook ah kaangtook ano, nok ah joom ano naririh maang japtuptup ih jam sok ah.
9 When she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found the drachma which I had lost.'
Heh ih japtup ano, heh joonte nyia heh khuung atok loong ah lompoon ah, eno neng suh baat ah, ‘Ngah rapne ih roonlang nga jaan ngun mata rah japjam angno ah. Seng loong saroom room ih!’
10 Even so, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner repenting."
Erah likhiik, ngah ih baat rumhala, Rangte Rangsah loong uh emamah ih roon ah wasiit taan rangdah nawa ngaaklek abah ah.”
11 He said, "A certain man had two sons.
Jisu erah damdi wakbaatta, “Ehak di mih wasiit di heh sah wanyi angta.
12 The younger of them said to his father, 'Father, give me my share of your property.' He divided his livelihood between them.
Noolih warah ih heh wah asuh baatta, ‘Ewah, nga dakbi nyamka ah ngah suh amadoh laan phe kohang.’ Eno heh warah ih heh sah nyi asuh pheekoh nyuuta.
13 Not many days after, the younger son gathered all of this together and traveled into a far country. There he wasted his property with riotous living.
Sa nyi jom lini noolih warah ih heh dabbi nyamka ah sang ano nok nawa erah ngun ah hui ano moongkhoom kata. Heh mideek ni moongkhoom kata, eno heh ngun loong ah thaangmuh di lasootsaam thang ih thaaja kaatta.
14 When he had spent all of it, there arose a severe famine in that country, and he began to be in need.
Heh jiinni mathan ngun jeeta angta thoontang jen thaaja lini, erah hah adi ramkhah dongta, eno heh jiinni tumjih uh tadakta.
15 He went and joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed pigs.
Erah thoidi heh erah deek adi mih nok ni lakniik jam kata eno wasiit ih heh phek ni wak ban sok thukta.
16 And he wanted to fill himself with the carob pods that the pigs ate, but no one gave him any.
Heh ih thunta wakjook theng wakcham ah tam laan sah ang eah, tumeah heh suh o ih uh phaksat kotte tajeeta.
17 But when he came to himself he said, 'How many hired servants of my father's have bread enough to spare, and I'm dying here with hunger.
Hethoondi heh thung ni dongthunta eno liita, ‘Seng wah nok ni mote loong ih neng wok maang phootphoot kah ih phaksah rum ah, chiinyah ngah bah aadi ram ih the halang!
18 I will get up and go to my father, and will tell him, "Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in your sight.
Ngah seng wah jiinnah ngaakwang angno baatwan ang, “Ewah, ngah ih Rangte damdi nyia an ngathong ni rapne ih rangdah molang.
19 I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants."'
Aadowa ih ngah an sah ih poon suh tapunkang; an ih ngah ah mootkaatte wasiit ih samthun hang.’
20 "He arose, and came to his father. But while he was still far off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.
Eno heh ah dokchap ano heh wah jiinni ngaakwangta. “Heh wah ih japtupta tok adi heh ah nok nawa haloot ni dook angta; ang abah uh heh wah heh thungthet lam ih soonkah ano, heh sah rah khonjoh ano chupphakta.
21 The son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in your sight. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.'
‘Ewah,’ heh sah rah ih liita, ‘Nga Rangte nyia an ngathong ni rapne ih rangdah molang. Ngah aadowa ih an sah et jen li suh takah pun kang.’
22 "But the father said to his servants, 'Quickly, bring out the best robe, and put it on him. Put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet.
Ang abah uh heh wah ih heh laksuh loong ah poon rum ano baatta, ‘Echaan!’ Heh ih liita, ‘Samsong jaase thoon ang arah jam koh jahan eno song thuk an. Heh lak nah laktiip ah tiipkoh eh an heh lah nah lakhoop ah khoop thuk ih an.
23 Bring the fattened calf, kill it, and let us eat, and celebrate;
Erah lilih maan etotot ah jowang anno joot an, eno seng loong ah saroom room ih!
24 for this, my son, was dead, and is alive again. He was lost, and is found.' They began to celebrate.
Tumeah arah nga sah ah etek eta, eno amadi heh engaakthing ela; heh mat eta, eno amadi jap jamhi. Eno saroom phaksat ah phang choongchaam rumta.
25 "Now his elder son was in the field. As he came near to the house, he heard music and dancing.
“Erah tokdi heh sah phokhoh wah ah phek ni angta. Heh ngaakwang ha di, heh nok ko ih tiitthok damdam ih, heh ih boongkaat seehoon ang arah japchaatta.
26 He called one of the servants to him, and asked what was going on.
Eno heh ih laksuh wasiit ah poon ano chengta, ‘Tumjih angla?’
27 He said to him, 'Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has received him back safe and healthy.'
An no ngaak wang taha,’ laksuh rah ih ngaakbaatta,’ eno an wah ih etotthoon maan ah joot thuk tahe, tumeah heh ah naririh punpiipi ih ngaak wang taha eah.’
28 But he was angry, and would not go in. Therefore his father came out, and pleaded with him.
“Phokhoh wah ah rapne ih khata nok ni uh lawang thang ah; eno heh wah ah kah ano ‘nok nah wang ho’ ih heh lasih joh lam ih poon kata.
29 But he answered his father, 'Look, these many years I have served you, and I never disobeyed a commandment of yours, but you never gave me a goat, that I might celebrate with my friends.
Eno heh wah asuh liita, ‘Sokthaak hang, paangtang ih ngah ih an suh dah likhiik ih reeraang pakna lang, an jeng uh lanaan daan thang ah. Eno an ih ngah suh tumjih kohalang? Nga joonte damdoh roong joon phaksat suh ki esiit taan uh tatek haat thuk rang!
30 But when this, your son, came, who has devoured your living with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him.'
Eno arah an sah rah ih an dowa nyamka ah pheesuh hoono hansangte minuh damdi ngun loong ah thaaja kaat ano, ngaakwang hala asuh an ih maan elongthoon ah kadook kohu nih!’
31 "He said to him, 'Son, you are always with me, and all that is mine is yours.
‘Nga sah,’ heh wah ih ngaakbaatta, ‘An ah aani saarookwih nga damdi, eno jirep nga dowa loong ah an raangtaan.
32 But it was appropriate to celebrate and be glad, for this brother of yours was dead and is alive; and he was lost, and is found.'"
Erah nang ih bah seng loong ih tenroon lam ih thong room phaksah theng, tumeah an no ah tek nawa, we ngaakthingla, heh jen mat eta, rah we jap jamhi.”
