< Luke 10 >
1 After that, the Lord Jesus appointed 72 other [people]. He [prepared to] send them out, two-by-two, to every town and village where he [SYN] intended to go.
So kochingbv Jisu kvvbi nyiga vkv chamkanw gula anyi go gokla, nw atu v vngjiku banggu mvnwnglo okv mooku lo anyi anyibv vngcho moto.
2 He said to them, “The [people who are ready to receive my message] are like a field [of] [MET] [grain] that is ready for [people] to harvest {to be harvested}. But there are not many people [to bring them to God]. So pray and ask the Lord [God] to send [more] workers [who will gather people together and teach them my message, just like a landowner sends workers] into his fields [to gather the] harvest.
Nw bunua minto, “Aam nvvse ngv hoka achialv duku, hum nvvji nvngv miang gumwng. Kumtoka aam atu gv lvgabv nw aam nvvji nvnga vnglin more ninyigv aam nvvse um nvvmure.
3 Start going; but [remember that] I am sending you [(pl)] out [to tell my message to people who will try to get rid of you. You will be] like lambs among wolves.
Vngnyika! ngo nonua svcha chaapamlo svlar vdw jebv vngmu gvrinvla
4 Do not take along [any money in] a purse. Do not take a traveler’s bag. Do not take [extra] sandals. Do not [spend a lot of time] greeting people along the way.
Nonu morko vgianvnv, vmalo giagonvgv chapa vmalo lvsup; lamtvlo nyi vdwa alvpvri vla minam a topu mabvka.
5 Whenever you enter a house [to lodge there], first say to those people, ‘May [God give inner] peace to [you people] [MTY] [in] this house!’
Vdwlo nonu naam ako gv arwng aarinyi, atokcho bv minlaka ‘So naam soka mvngpu v lvkobv doolaka.’
6 If people who [live] there [are (desiring to have]/worthy of receiving) [God’s] peace, they will experience the [inner] peace that you are [offering them]. If people who [live] there [are not desiring to have God’s] peace, you [will experience God’s inner] peace, [but they will not].
Hoka sarsopoyonv nyi go doodu bolo, nonugv sarsopoyo ngaaka ninyigvlo doolwk molaka; vkv kaama bolo, nonugv sarsopoyo nga naakur lakuka.
7 [If they welcome you], stay in that same house [until you leave that village]. Do not move around from one house to another. Eat and drink whatever they provide for you. A worker deserves to get pay [MET] [from the people for whom he works, so you deserve to receive food and a place to stay from the people to whom you go].
Ho gv naam akinlo doobwng laka, dvdunglaka okv tvngdung laka oguggo nw nonua jilin dudw, rinv nga ninyigv rijo nga jirung dunv. Naam namgunv lokv kvvbi namgu nvlo vnggo mabvka.
8 Whenever you enter a town and the people [there] welcome you, eat what is provided {what [they] provide} for you.
Vdwlo nonu banggu ako gv arwnglo vngrikudw okv alvbv aamu pvkulo, ogu go nonua mvpvripv jipvdw dvlaka,
9 Heal the people there who are sick. Tell them, ‘It is almost [time for] God to send his king to rule [MET] [your lives].’
ho banggu gv lvvma nvnga mvpu jilaka, okv hoka nyi vdwa minlaka ‘Pwknvyarnv gv Karv ngv nonu lo nvchibv aapvku vla.’
10 But if you enter a town whose [people] do not welcome you, go into its [main] streets and say,
Vbvritola vdwlo nonu banggu akolo vngridw okv alvbv aamu mapvlo, vnglin lakuka lamtvlo hoka minlaka,
11 ‘[Because you have refused to hear our message, we(exc) will not only leave], we will also shake off the dust of your town that clings to our sandals, to warn you [that God will reject/punish you]. But [we want you to know that] it is almost [the time when] God will start to rule!’
‘nonugv banggu gv dwmar ngonugv lvpalo doonv haka ngonu nonua rinying bv mvlu jidunv. Vbvritola mvnggap laka Pwknvyarnv gv Karv ngv aapvku nonugv nvchilo!’
12 I will tell you this: On the [MTY] [final] day when [God judges everyone], he will punish the wicked people [MTY] who long ago lived in Sodom, [the city that he destroyed because its people were so wicked]. But he will punish [even] more severely the people [MTY] of any town [whose people refused to hear your message]!”
Ngo nonua milv jidunv Jwngkadaka Alu lo Pwknvyarnv ho banggu um svnga Sodom a kaiyago aya kaatamre!
13 “There will be terrible [punishment] for [you people who live in] [MTY] Chorazin and Bethsaida [cities]. I did great miracles in your cities [to show God’s power, but you did not turn from your sinful behavior]. If the miracles that I performed in your [cities] had been done in Tyre and Sidon [cities], the wicked people who lived there would have long ago [shown that they were sorry for their sins by] sitting on the ground wearing coarse cloth and putting ashes on their heads.
“Chorajin! no lvgabv vdwgo mvngdwk dwknam gubv rire, Betsaida! no lvgabvka vdwgo mvngdwk dwknam gubv rire, nonu gvlo lamrwpadubv mvkunam vdwa Taire okv Sidon lo rinv guilo, ho gv nyi vdwv krim doopam dukunvpv, tagiam vjia kooto kula okv mvchu a bunu atu v harbum sitokula, nw bunu rimur lokv mvngdin dukunv vla kaatam bvku ripv kunvpv!
14 [But they did not have the opportunity that you have, so when God punishes people, he will punish the wicked people who lived in] Tyre and Sidon, but he will punish you more severely [because you did not pay attention to my message].
Nonu am svnga kaiyago Pwknvyarnv Taire okv Sidon ha aya kaatamre Jwngkadaka Alu lo.
15 [I also have something to say to] you [people who live in] Capernaum [city]. (Do not [think that you will be honored] {[that God] will honor you} in heaven!/Do you [think that you will be honored] {[that God] will honor you} in heaven?) [RHQ] [That will not happen! On the contrary], [after you die, God] will send you down to the place where [sinful people] will be punished [forever]!” (Hadēs )
Karparnaum! Okv no lvgabv, no atu hv nyidomooku ao tolo harsa sidubv mvngdure? Nam uyumooku bolo paalu rinvla!” (Hadēs )
16 [Jesus also said to the disciples, “God will consider that] those who listen to your [message] are listening to me, and that those who reject your [message] are rejecting me. And [he will consider that] those who reject me are rejecting [God], the one who sent me.”
Jisu ninyigv lvbwlaksu vdwa minto, “Yvv bunu nonua tvriadunv hv ngamka tvriadunv; yvv bunu nonua toa dunv hv ngamka toa dunv; okv yvv bunu nga toa dunv hv nga so imu nvngaka toa dunv.”
17 The 72 [people whom Jesus appointed went and did as he told them to]. When they returned, they were very joyful. They said, “Lord, [people did what we(exc) told them to do]! Demons also obeyed us when by your [(sg)] authority [MTY] [we commanded them to leave people]!”
Nyiga chamkanw kanw gula anyi vdwv aakur toku kairungbv himpula. “Ahtu” bunu minto, “Uyuvram vka tvvdu vdwlo ngonu noogv amin bv bunua mintodw!”
18 Jesus replied, “[When those demons were obeying you, because God had enabled you to defeat them, it was as though] [MET] I saw Satan fall from heaven [as suddenly and quickly] as lightning [strikes].
Jisu bunua mirwkto, “Ngo Uyu nga nyidomooku lokv dooriak jvbv hoolu dubv kaato.
19 Listen! I have given you authority so that if you oppose evil spirits [MET] [they will not hurt you]. I have given you authority to defeat our enemy, [Satan]. Nothing shall hurt you.
Tvriato! ngo nonua jwkrw a jipv kunv, vkvlvgabv nonu tabw vdwgv okv dwkung vdwgv aolo vngla dukubv okv nyimak gv jwkrw mvnwngnga rigum yadubv, okv nonua ogugoka alvmanv rika madubv.
20 But [although] you can rejoice that evil spirits obey you, you should rejoice [more] that your names have been written {that [God] has written your names} in heaven, [because you will be with God forever].”
Vbvritola alvmanv dow vdwv nonua tvvdu vla himpu mabvka, vmabvya himpu yalaka ogulvgavbolo nonugv amina nyidomooku tv lvkpv yadu.”
21 At that time the Holy Spirit caused [Jesus] to be very happy. He said, “Father, you [(sg)] rule over [everything in] heaven and [on] the earth! Some [people think that they are] wise [because] they are well-educated. But I thank you that you have prevented them from [knowing] these things. [Instead], you have revealed them to [people who accept your truth as readily] [MET] [as] little children [do]. Yes, Father, [you have done that] because it seemed good to you [to do] so.”
Ho dw lo Jisu himputo Darwknv Dow doonam lvkwng lokv okv minto, “Abu, nyidomooku gvla Sichingmooku gv Ahtu! Ngo nam umbonyika mvngdunv ogulvgavbolo no chima nvnga kaatam jikunam lvgalo noogv chinkichiak okv chinvpanv lokv vvsivrum nama. Vmabv Abu si noogv mvnggv rila rimu nvpv mvngnam a rimunamv.”
22 [Jesus also said to the 72 disciples], “[God], my Father, has revealed to me all [I need to know and the power I need for my work]. Only my Father knows who I [really] am. Furthermore, only I and those [people] to whom I wish to reveal him know what [God] my Father is [like].”
“Ngo gv Abu nga ogumvnwng nga jito. Kuunyilo ngv yvvdw um yvvka chinv kaama Abu mvngchik chindu, okv Abu yvvdw um yvvka chinv kaama Kuunyilo mvngchik okv Kuunyilo gv ninyia kaatam dukubv vla darkunam vdwv.”
23 Then when Jesus’ disciples were alone with him, he turned toward them and said, “[God] is pleased with you [SYN] who have seen [the things that I have done]!
Vbvrikunamv Jisu lvbwlaksu vdwa dakrwk toku okv bunua minsila minto, “Nonuno gamdak nvgo laka nonugv ogu kaadubv mvngnam a nonu kaapa mindu!
24 I want you to know that many prophets and kings [who lived long ago] desired to see the things that you are seeing [me do], but these things did not [happen] then. They longed to hear the things that you have been hearing [me say], but these things were not [revealed to them] then.”

25 [One day as Jesus was teaching people], a man was there who had studied carefully the laws that [God gave Moses]. He wanted to ask Jesus a difficult question. So he stood up and asked, “Teacher, what shall I do in order to live [with God] forever?” (aiōnios )
Pvbv tamsarnv ako aato okv Jisunyi mingkup tvvto. “Tamsarnv,” nw tvuto, “Turbwngla singnam a paanam lvgabv ngo ogugo rise gubvre?” (aiōnios )
26 Jesus said to him, “You [(sg)] have read [RHQ] what [Moses] has written in the laws that [God gave him]. What did Moses write about living forever?”
Jisu mirwkto, “Darwknv Kitaplo ogu vla minpv? Okv um no oguaingbv japjidunv?”
27 The man replied, “[He wrote that] we [(inc)] must love the Lord our God. [We must show that] by what we feel and by what we do and by what we think. [He] also [wrote that we must love] people that we come in contact with as much as [we love] ourselves.”
Nyi angv mirwkto, “Atunyi, noogv Pwknvyarnvnyi no haapok mvnwng lokv, noogv yalu mvnwng lokv, noogv gwlwk mvnwng lokv, okv noogv mongrumara mvnwng lokv; okv no atu hv oguaingbv paksu dudw vkv aingbv noogv namrwk ajin a pakmi sulaka.”
28 Jesus replied, “You [(sg)] have answered [your question] correctly. If you do all that [continually], you will live [with God forever].”
“No alvbv mingvnyibv,” Jisu mirwk suto; “sum rilaka okv no turriku.”
29 But the man wanted to defend [the way] he [acted toward people that he came in contact with] (OR, to defend why he [had asked a question that Jesus answered so simply]). So he said to Jesus, “Which people that I come in contact with [should I love]?”
Vbvritola Pvbv tamsarnv nyi angv atu v abwk nvpv mvngtoku, vkvlvgabv nw Jisunyi tvvkato, “Yvvla ngoogv namrwk doobam ajin v?”
30 Jesus replied [by telling him this illustration]: “A [Jewish] man was once going down along the road from Jerusalem to Jericho. Bandits attacked him. They took away [most of] the man’s clothes [and everything else that he had], and they beat him until he was almost dead. Then they left him.
Jisu mirwkto, “Ho hoka nyi ako dooto, nw Jerusalem lokv Jeriko bv idungto ho ninyia dvchotvnglanv nyi vdwv naatungto, ninyia vji pibinto, okv achialvbv dvngto, siloyasi dubv mvtola kayuto.
31 It happened that a [Jewish] priest was going along that road. When he saw that man, [instead of helping him], he passed by on the other side [of the road].
Hum hoka vbv rimutvla lamtv hoka nyibu ako idungto; vbvritola nyibu angv nyi anga vdwlo kaapa tokudw, nw vngyela, kvvbi lamtvbv vngto.
32 Similarly, a man who worked in the temple [in Jerusalem] came to that place and saw the man. But he also passed by on the other side [of the road].
Vbvdvdvbv Libait ako vngtato, vngsito okv nyi anga kaato, okv vbvrikunamv vngyela, kvvbi lamtvbv vngtoku.
33 Then a man from Samaria [province] came along that road to where the man was lying. [People from Samaria despise Jews. But] when he saw that man, he pitied him.
Vbvritola samaritan ako ho lamtvlo vngdung nvgo aala nyi angv gv dookulo aato, okv vdwlo nw ho nyi anga kaatokudw, ninyigv haapok hv aya mvngpa toku.
34 He went over to him and put some [olive] oil and wine on his wounds [to help heal them]. He wound strips of cloth [around the wounds]. He placed the man on his own donkey and took him to an inn and took care of him.
Nw nyi angv gv dookulo aato, nyi angv gv ungvlo tvli okv opo pwbumto okv hum putum toku; vbvrikunamv nw ho nyi a ninyigv svnwng aolo joopvto okv hotel golo baklwk toku, hoka nw nyi anga ringchum yatoku.
35 The next morning he gave two silver coins to the innkeeper and said, ‘Take care of this man. If you [(sg)] spend more than this amount [to care for him], I will pay you back when I return.’”
Alu logo nvlo nw ain lokdwng charnyi go naalinto okv hum ringchum nvnga jitoku. ‘Ninyia ringchum laka,’ nw ringchum nvnga mintoku, ‘okv vdwlo ngo so lamtvbv vngkur rikudw, no nyi so gv lvgabv ogugo ngoopvdw um ngo nam jireku.’”
36 Then Jesus said, “Three people [saw] the man whom bandits attacked. Which one of them [acted in a loving way toward] that man?”
Okv Jisu minyabv minto, “Noogv mvngnam lokv, so nyi aom sokv yvvla namrwk ajin jvbv ripvnv dvchonv nyi vdwgv dvngnam nyi anga?”
37 The man who studied the Scriptures replied, “The one who acted mercifully toward him.” Jesus said to him, “You [(sg)] go and act like that [toward] everyone whom [you can help]!”
Pvbv tamsarnv angv mirwkto, “Ninyia ayanv angv.” Jisu mirwkla minto, “Vbvrikunamv no vngnyi, okv vbvdvdvbv rilaka.”
38 As Jesus and his disciples continued to travel, they entered a village [near Jerusalem]. A woman whose name was Martha invited them to come to her house.
Jisu la ninyigv lvbwlaksu vdwv bunugv lamtvlo vngrilo nw nampum golo aatoku hoka Marta vnam nyimv go ninyigv naam lo Jisunyi alvbv aamu toku.
39 Her [younger] sister, whose name was Mary, sat near Jesus. She was listening to what he was teaching.
Nw bormv ako dooto aminv Meri, nw Jisu gv lvpa lvkwnglo dootola ninyigv tamsar nama tvvriato.
40 But Martha was very much concerned about preparing [a meal]. She went to Jesus and said, “Lord, (you do not seem to care that my sister has left me to prepare everything by myself!/do you not care that my sister has left me to prepare everything by myself?) [RHQ] Tell her that she should help me!”
Marta ninyigv gwngserise ngv achialv kunam lvgalo nw timbuto, vkvlvgabv nw aato okv ninyia minto, “Ahtu, ngoogv bormv, nga gwngserise ngv awgo doomu gvrila nga vngyunam sum no kaachin malare? Ninyia ngam ridumdubv mintokv!”
41 But the Lord replied, “Martha, Martha, you [(sg)] are very worried about many things.
Ahtu ninyia mirwkto, “Marta, Marta! no gwngserise achialv gv aolo timbula okv adwkaku dunvre,
42 But only one thing is truly necessary, and that is, [to listen to what I am teaching]. Mary has decided to [do that], and that is better [than worrying]. [The blessing that she is receiving from listening to me] will not be taken away from her {No one will take away from her [the blessing that she is receiving from listening to me]}.”
