Luke 15
1 Many [HYP] tax collectors and [others whom people considered to be] habitual sinners kept coming to Jesus to listen to him teach.
Para penagih pajak dan “orang-orang berdosa” lainnya sering kali datang dan mendengarkan pengajaran Yesus.
2 The Pharisees and men who taught the [Jewish] laws [who were there] [SYN] began to grumble, saying, “This man welcomes sinners and he also [defiles himself by eating] with them!”
Sebagai hasilnya, para orang Farisi dan pengajar hukum Taurat mengeluh, “Orang ini menyambut orang-orang berdosa, dan seringkali makan bersama mereka.”
3 So Jesus told them this parable:
Maka Yesus menceritakan suatu kisah kepada mereka.
4 “Suppose that one of you had 100 sheep. If one of them were lost, (you [(sg)] would certainly leave the 99 sheep in the pasture, and go and search for the one lost sheep until you found it./would you not leave the 99 sheep in the pasture, and go and search for the one lost sheep until you found it?) [RHQ]
“Bayangkan seseorang yang memiliki seratus ekor domba dan dia kehilangan satu ekor dari antara mereka. Tidakkah dia akan meninggalkan yang 99 ekor di padang terbuka, dan mencari satu yang hilang itu sampai dia bisa menemukannya?
5 When you [(sg)] found it, you would put it on your shoulders and be happy.
Dan ketika dia menemukannya, dengan gembira, dia akan mengangkat domba itu ke atas bahunya.
6 When you brought it home, you would call together your friends and neighbors and say to them, ‘Be happy with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost!’
Sesudah orang itu tiba di rumah, dia memanggil teman-teman dan tetangganya berkumpul, dan berkata, ‘Mari datang dan rayakan bersamaku! Aku sudah menemukan dombaku yang hilang!’
7 I tell you [(pl)] that similarly [God] will be very happy about each and every sinner who turns from doing evil. God is not happy about 99 people who [think that they] are [IRO] righteous and think that they do not need to turn from doing evil.
Aku katakan kepada kalian, ada lebih banyak sukacita di surga karena satu orang berdosa bertobat dibandingkan 99 orang baik yang tidak memerlukan pertobatan.
8 Or, suppose that a woman has ten [very valuable] silver coins. If she loses one of them, (she will certainly light a lamp and sweep the floor and search carefully until she finds it!/will she not light a lamp and sweep the floor and search carefully until she finds it?) [RHQ]
Bayangkan seorang perempuan yang kehilangan satu keping uang perak dari antara sepuluh keping miliknya. Tidakkah dia akan menyalakan lilin dan menyapu rumah, dengan berhati-hati mencari uang itu sampai menemukannya?
9 When she finds it, she will call together her friends and neighbors and say, ‘Be happy with me, [because] I have found the coin that I lost!’
Sesudah dia menemukannya, dia akan memanggil teman-teman dan tetangganya berkumpul serta berkata, ‘Mari datang dan bersukacitalah bersamaku! Aku sudah menemukan uang perakku yang hilang.’
10 I tell you that similarly the angels will be happy about [even just] one sinner who turns from doing evil.”
Demikian juga ada sukacita yang besar di hadapan para malaikat di Surga karena satu orang berdosa yang bertobat.
11 Then [Jesus told them this parable to compare what the Pharisees and teachers of the Jewish law thought about those who turn from their sinful behavior with what God thinks about such people]. He said, “A certain man had two sons.
Suatu ketika ada seorang laki-laki yang mempunyai dua orang anak laki-laki,” kata Yesus memulai kisahnya.
12 One day the younger son said to his father, ‘Father, [I do not want to wait until you(sg) die]. Give me now the share of your property that belongs to me!’ So the man divided his property between his two sons.
“Anak yang lebih muda berkata kepada ayahnya, ‘Ayah, berikanlah bagian warisanku sekarang.’ Jadi laki-laki itu membagi harta miliknya kepada kedua anaknya itu.
13 A few days later, the younger son [sold his share]. He gathered his money and other things together and went to a country far away. There he spent all his money foolishly in reckless/wild living.
Beberapa hari kemudian, anak yang lebih muda mengemas semua barang-barangnya dan pergi merantau ke daerah yang jauh. Di sana dia menghambur-hamburkan semua uang yang dimilikinya dengan menjalani kehidupan liar.
14 After he had spent all his money, there was a great famine throughout that country. And soon he did not have enough [food to] eat.
Sesudah dia kehabisan segala miliknya, negeri itu mengalami masa kelaparan yang luar biasa, dan si dia ini merasa kelaparan.
15 So he went to one of the landowners in that area and asked for work. The man sent him to work taking care of the pigs in his field.
Maka pergilah dia dan mendapat pekerjaan di salah seorang pemilik pertanian yang menyewanya sebagai salah seorang penjaga untuk memberi makan ternak babinya.
16 [Because he was very hungry], he would have been glad to eat the bean pods that the pigs ate. But no one gave him anything to eat.
Dia merasa begitu lapar sehingga jika bisa dia ingin makan makanan babi, tetapi tidak seorangpun memberinya apapun untuk di makan.
17 Finally he thought clearly about what he had done. He said to himself, ‘All of my father’s hired servants have plenty of food! They have more [SYN] than they can eat, but here I am dying because I do not have anything to eat [HYP]!
Ketika dia akhirnya menyadari keadaannya, berkatalah dia kepada dirinya sendiri, ‘Seluruh pekerja ayahku memiliki lebih dari cukup untuk dimakan — mengapa saya harus mati kelaparan di tempat ini?
18 So I will leave here and go back to my father. I will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against God [MTY, EUP] and against you [(sg)].
Aku akan kembali pulang ke rumah ayahku! Aku akan berkata kepadanya, Ayah, aku sudah berdosa terhadap surga dan ayah.
19 I am no longer worthy to be called {of [you] calling me} your son. Just hire me to be like one of the other hired servants.”’
Aku sudah tidak layak lagi dipanggil sebagai anak ayah. Tolong perlakukan aku sebagai salah satu pekerja sewaanmu.’
20 So he left there and went back to his father’s house. But while he was still some distance from the house, his father saw him. He pitied him. He ran to his son and embraced him and kissed him [on the cheek].
Maka pergilah dia dan kembali ke rumah ayahnya. Sekalipun dia masih jauh dari rumah, ayahnya melihat kedatangannya, dan hati sang ayah penuh dengan belas kasihan kepada anaknya. Maka berlarilah sang ayah menyambut anaknya, memeluk dan menciumi dia.
21 His son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against God [MTY/EUP] and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called {of [you] calling me} your son.’
Kata sang anak kepada ayahnya, ‘Ayah, aku sudah berdosa terhadap surga dan bapa. Aku tidak layak lagi disebut anak bapa.’
22 But his father said to his servants, ‘Go quickly and bring to me the best robe [in the house]! Then put it on my son. Put a ring on his finger [to show that I am honoring him again as my son]! Put sandals on his feet [to show that I do not consider him to be a slave]!
Tetapi sang bapak berkata kepada para pekerjanya, ‘Cepat — bawa jubah yang terbaik dan pakaikan itu kepadanya. Pakaikan cincin di jarinya dan sandal di kakinya.
23 Then bring the fat calf and kill it [and cook it]. We [(inc)] must eat and celebrate,
Bawalah anak kambing yang sudah digemukkan dan sembelihlah itu. Mari kita mengadakan pesta untuk merayakan
24 because my son has returned! [It is as though] [MET] he was dead and is alive again! [It is as though] he was lost and now has been found!’ So they did that, and they all began to celebrate.
sebab anakku yang saya pikir sudah mati, ternyata masih hidup dan kembali, dia yang sudah hilang, sekarang ditemukan kembali.’ Maka mereka mulai mengadakan perayaan.
25 While all that was happening, the man’s older son was out [working] in the field. When he came near to the house, he heard [people playing] music and dancing.
Lalu datanglah anak yang lebih tua baru saja selesai bekerja dari ladang. Ketika dalam perjalanan pulang, dia mendengar suara musik dan tari-tarian.
26 He called one of the servants and asked what was happening.
Jadi dia memanggil salah satu pelayan dan bertanya apa yang terjadi.
27 The servant said to him, ‘Your [younger] brother has come [home] Your father has [told us to] kill the fat calf [to celebrate] because your brother has returned safe and healthy.’
‘Adik tuan sudah kembali,’ jawabnya, ‘dan ayah tuan sudah menyembeli anak kambing yang digemukkan, sebab adik tuan sudah kembali pulang dengan selamat.’
28 [But] the older brother was angry. He refused to enter [the house]. So his father came out and pleaded with him [to come in].
Anak yang lebih tua itu menjadi marah, Dan dia menolak masuk ke dalam rumah. Maka sang ayah datang keluar untuk berbicara kepada dia.
29 But he replied to his father, ‘Listen to me! For many years I have worked for you like a slave. I always obeyed everything you told me to do. But you never even gave me a young goat, so that I could [kill it and cook it and] celebrate with my friends.
Katanya kepada ayahnya, ‘Selama bertahun-tahun saya sudah melayani ayah, dan tidak pernah tidak taat kepada ayah, tetapi tidak sekalipun ayah memberiku seekor kambing muda agar saya bisa berpesta bersama dengan teman-temanku.
30 But this son of yours spent all the [money he got from] what you gave him. He spent it [to pay for sleeping with] prostitutes! Yes, now he has returned home, [but it is not fair that] you have told your [servants] to kill the fat calf [and cook it] for him!’
Sekarang anakmu sudah kembali, menghabiskan semua uang ayah dengan perempuan murahan, dan ayah malah menyembelih anak kambing gemukan untuk dia!’
31 But his father said to him, ‘My son, you have always been with me, and all my property [that I did not give to your brother] has been yours.
‘Nak,’ jawab ayahnya, ‘kamu selalu bersama-sama dengan ayah. Segala milik ayah adalah milikmu.
32 But [it is as though] [MET] your brother was dead and is alive again! [It is as though] he was lost and now he has been found! So it is appropriate for us to be happy and celebrate!’”
Tetapi tentulah kita harus senang dan mengadakan perayaan! Ini adikmu, yang dikira sudah mati, ternyata masih hidup, dia hilang tapi sekarang dia ditemukan!’”
