Luke 18
1 And he spoke a parable to them to show that they ought to pray always, and not be faint-hearted:
AND he spake also a parable to them, that in all time (men) should pray and not weary.
2 saying, There was in a certain city a judge, who feared not God, nor regarded man.
There was a judge in a certain city who of Aloha was not afraid, and of men was not regardful.
3 And there was a widow in that city; and she kept coming to him, saying, Avenge me of my adversary!
But a certain widow was in that city, who came to him, saying, Avenge me of my adversary.
4 And he would not for some time. But afterward he said within himself, Though I neither fear God, nor regard man,
And he was not willing long time; but afterward he said within himself, If of Aloha I am not afraid, and of men am not regardful,
5 yet, because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her; lest by coming for ever she weary me out.
yet, because this widow wearies me, I will avenge her, that in all time she come not molesting me.
6 And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.
And our Lord said, Hear what saith the unrighteous judge.
7 And will not God avenge his chosen, who cry to him day and night, though he be slow to punish in their behalf?
But shall not Aloha do vengeance for his chosen, who cry to him by day and by night, and prolong his spirit towards them?
8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. But yet, when the Son of man cometh, will he find faith on the earth?
I tell you he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of man shall come, will he find faith upon the earth?
9 And to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised all others, he spoke this parable:
And he spake this parable against some who trusted in themselves that they were just, and despised all (men):
10 Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.
Two men went up to the temple to pray, the one a Pharisha, the other a publican;
11 The Pharisee stood and prayed by himself thus: O God, I thank thee that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
and, behold, the Pharisha stood (and) within himself these words prayed: Aloha, I thank thee that I am not as the rest of men, rapacious and unjust, and adulterers; nor as this publican.
12 I fast twice in the week; I give tithes of all that I gain.
But I fast twice in the week, and tithe whatever I possess.
13 But the publican, standing afar off, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven; but smote his breast, saying, O God, be merciful to me a sinner!
But that publican stood from afar, and would not even his eyes lift up to heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, Aloha, be merciful to me a sinner!
14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for every one that exalteth himself will be humbled; but he that humbleth himself will be exalted.
I tell you that this one went down justified to his house, rather than that Pharisha. For every man who exalteth himself shall be humbled, and every one who humbleth himself shall be exalted.
15 And they brought to him infants also, that he might touch them; and the disciples, on seeing it, rebuked them.
Then they brought to him infants, that he should touch them: and the disciples saw it, and rebuked them.
16 But Jesus called them to him, saying, Suffer the little children to come to me, and forbid them not; for to such belongeth the kingdom of God.
But Jeshu called them, and said to them, Suffer children to come to me, and forbid them not; for of those who are as these,
17 Truly do I say to you, Whoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, will not enter therein.
of them is the kingdom of heaven. Amen I say to you, That whoever does not receive the kingdom of Aloha as a child, shall not enter into it.
18 And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good teacher, what shall I do to inherit everlasting life? (aiōnios g166)
AND one of the rulers asked him, saying, Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
19 And Jesus said to him, Why dost thou call me good? None is good but one, that is, God.
Jeshu saith to him, Why callest thou me good, and none is good but one, Aloha?
20 Thou knowest the commandments: “Do not commit adultery; Do not kill; Do not steal; Do not bear false witness; Honor thy father and thy mother.”
The commandments thou knowest, Thou shalt not kill, and, Thou shalt not commit adultery, and, Thou shalt not steal, and, Thou shalt not witness false testimony, Honour thy father and thy mother.
21 And he said, All these have I kept from my youth.
He saith to him, These all have I kept from my childhood.
22 And Jesus hearing this said to him, One thing thou still lackest: sell all that thou hast, and distribute to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.
But when Jeshu heard this, he said to him, One thing is lacking with thee; go, sell whatever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven, and come after me.
23 But when he heard this, he became very sorrowful; for he was very rich.
But he, when he heard these words, was grieved; for he was very rich.
24 And Jesus seeing him said, How hardly do they that have riches enter the kingdom of God!
And when Jeshu saw that he was grieved, he said, How difficult is it to those who have riches to enter into the kingdom of Aloha!
25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.
It is easier for a camel into the aperture of a needle to enter, than the rich into the kingdom of Aloha.
26 And those who heard this said, Who then can be saved?
They who heard said to him, And who can be saved?
27 But he said, What is impossible with men is possible with God.
But Jeshu said, Those (things) which with the sons of men are not possible, with Aloha are possible to be done.
28 Then Peter said, Lo! we left what we had, and followed thee.
Shemun Kipha said to him, Behold, we have forsaken every thing, and have come after thee.
29 And he said to them, Truly do I say to you, There is no one that hath left house, or wife, or brothers, or parents, or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God,
Jeshu saith to him, Amen I say to you, That no man who leaveth houses, or fathers, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of Aloha,
31 And taking the twelve aside, he said to them, Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all that hath been written by the prophets concerning the Son of man will be accomplished.
AND Jeshu took the twelve, and said to them, Behold, we go up to Urishlem, and shall be fulfilled all (things) that are written in the prophets concerning the Son of man.
32 For he will be delivered up to the gentiles, and will be mocked, and insulted, and spit upon;
For he will be delivered to the Gentiles; and they will deride him, and spit in his face,
33 and they will scourge him, and put him to death; and the third day he will rise again.
and will scourge him, and maltreat him, and kill him; and the third day he shall arise.
34 And they understood none of these things; and the meaning of these words was hidden from them, and they did not comprehend what was said.
But not one of these understood they: for this word was hidden from them, and they knew not those sayings which were spoken with them.
35 And it came to pass, as he drew near to Jericho, that a certain blind man was sitting by the wayside begging.
And as he drew nigh to Jirichu, a certain blind man was sitting by the road-side, and begging.
36 And hearing a multitude passing by, he asked what this meant.
And he heard the voice of the multitude as it was passing, and asked what was this.
37 And they told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.
They say to him, Jeshu Natsroya passeth.
38 And he cried out, saying, Jesus, Son of David, have pity on me!
And he cried and said, Jeshu bar David, have mercy on me!
39 And they who went before sharply bade him hold his peace. But he cried out the more, Son of David, have pity on me!
And they who went before Jeshu rebuked him, that he might be silent: but he cried out the more, Son of David, have mercy on me!
40 And Jesus stopped, and ordered him to be brought to him. And when he had come near, he asked him,
And Jeshu stood, and commanded that they should lead him unto him. And when he, approached him, he asked him and said to him,
41 What dost thou wish me to do for thee? And he said, Lord, to restore my sight.
What wilt thou I shall do for thee? And he said, My Lord, that I may see.
42 And Jesus said to him, Receive thy sight; thy faith hath saved thee.
And Jeshu said to him, See! thy faith hath saved thee.
43 And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, giving glory to God; and all the people on seeing it gave praise to God.
And in an instant he saw, and came after him, and glorified Aloha: and all the people, when they saw, gave praise to Aloha.
