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.
Авэнас Исусостэ всавэрэ стидэмаря, савэ лэнас налогуря, и бэзимахкэрэ мануша, соб тэ шунэ Лэ.
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!”
Нэ фарисеенди и сиклимаренди пав Упхэнима на чялёлас, со терда Исусо, и вонэ пхэнэнас: — Вов прылэл бэзимахкэрэ манушэн и хал лэнца.
3 So Jesus told them this parable:
Нэ Исусо пхэнда лэнди кацави дума:
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]
— Пхэнаґа, екхэстэ тумэндар исин шэл бакря, и екх лэндар хасиля. Чи на ачявэла вов енядэша тай еня бакрен дэ маля и чи на джяла тэ родэ бакря, сави хасиля?
5 When you [(sg)] found it, you would put it on your shoulders and be happy.
Ай кала аракхэла бакря, баря лошаґа тховэла ла пэ пхикэ и лиджяла.
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!’
Кала авэла цэрэ, акхарэла пэхкэрэн амалэн и пашунэн и пхэнэла лэнди: «Лошавэн манца, мэ аракхлём бакря, сави хасиля».
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.
Пхэнав тумэнди, со кади ж пэ упралима пала екхэ манушэ, саво ачявда бэзимо, будэр лошавэна, сар пала енядэша еня патявнэн манушэн, савэнди на трэбуни тэ ачявэ бэзимо.
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]
Кала манушнятэ исин дэш драхмы и вой хацарэла екх лэндар, чи на пхабарэла вой лампа, на шулавэла всаворо пэкхкоро цэр и на авэла тэ родэ, соб тэ аракхэ кадыя драхма?
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!’
А кала аракхэла ла, тунчи стидэла пэхкэрэн амалкэн и пашунэн джювлен тай пхэнэла: «Лошавэн манца, мэ аракхлём драхма, сави хацардом!»
10 I tell you that similarly the angels will be happy about [even just] one sinner who turns from doing evil.”
Кади, пхэнав тумэнди, лошавэн ангелуря Дэвлэхкэрэ и пала екхэ манушэ, саво ачявда пэхкоро бэзимо.
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.
Инте пхэнда Исусо: — Екхэ манушэстэ сле дуй чявэ.
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.
И тэрнэдэр лэндар пхэнда дадэсти: «Дадэ! Дэ манди тирэ барвалимастар котор, саво манди доросэлапэ». И дад розмарда вса, со лэстэ сля, пэ дон и дэня пэхкэрэ чявэнди.
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.
Проджиля набут вряма, и цыкнэдэр чявэндар стидэня вса, со лэсти доросляпэ, и джиля дур, дэ авэр пхув. Котэ розтерда вса, со лэстэ сля, и пав диниманэ розчувэлас ловэ.
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.
Кала вов розчута всавэрэ ловэ, дэ кодыя пхув авиля бари бокх, и чяво мэрэлас бокхатар.
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.
Тунчи джиля и намисардапэ екхэ манушэстэ кодэла пхуятар, тэ чяравэ баличен пэ маля.
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.
Вов мэрэлас бокхатар и сля лошало тэ ха їтханэ баличенца, нэ лэсти и кода на дэнас.
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]!
Кала чявэстэ рисиля годи, тунчи вов пхэнда: «Бут намисардэн бутярнэн мурэ дадэстэ, и вонэ хан, скици закамэна, а мэ бокхатар катэ мэрав!
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)].
Вщява, рисявава павпалэ мурэ дадэстэ и пхэнава лэсти: "Дадэ! Мэ тердом бэзимо англа Дэвлэ пэ упралима и англа тут
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.”’
и на ачяв тэ акхарэпэ тирэ чявэґа. Нэ прылэ ман сар тирэ бутярнэ"».
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].
Тунчи вщиля и джиля пэхкэрэ дадэстэ. Кала чяво сля дур цэрэстар, дад удыкхля лэ. И ачиля лэсти дор пэхкэрэ чявэ. Тунчи вов прастэня лэстэ, облиля и чюминдэня лэ.
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.’
Чяво пхэнда дадэсти: «Дадэ! Мэ тердом бэзимо англа Дэвлэ пэ упралима и англа тут и на ачяв тэ акхарэпэ тирэ чявэґа».
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]!
Нэ дад пхэнда пэхкэрэ бутярнэнди: «Джян сигэдэр! Анэн фэдэр їда, сави исин, и урявэнтэ чявэ, дэнтэ лэсти ангрусни пэ ангушт и пундрангэ пэ лэхкэрэ пурэн.
23 Then bring the fat calf and kill it [and cook it]. We [(inc)] must eat and celebrate,
Анэн парвардэ гурувэ и чинэн лэ пэ мас. Тховаґа баро скаминд и аваґа тэ лошавэ!
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.
Кадэва муро чяво сля муло, нэ отджювдиня, сля хацардо, нэ кана аракхляпэ». Тай ачиле тэ лошавэ.
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.
Пхурэдэр чяво сля пэ маля. Кала вов рисиля малятар и сля паша цэр, шунда, сар цэлэн и дилябэн.
26 He called one of the servants and asked what was happening.
Тунчи акхарда екхэ бутярнэ и пхучля: «Со када терэлпэ?»
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.’
Бутярно пхэнда лэсти: «Авиля тиро пхрал. И тиро дад прыпхэнда тэ чинэ парвардэ гурувэ, колэсти со лэхкоро чяво рисиля цэрэ джювдо».
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].
Тунчи пхурэдэр чяво холиля и на камля тэ заджя дэ цэр. Нэ дад выджиля цэрэстар и ачиля тэ акхарэ лэ.
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.
Нэ вов пхэнда дадэсти: «Акэ, мэ скици бэрш терав бути важ тут, со никала тэ ваздэ шэро, и дэ всавэрэ кандав тут. Нэ ту и цыкнорэ бузнорэ на дэнян манди, соб мэ тэ лошавав мурэ амалэнца.
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!’
А кала кадэва тиро чяво, саво протерда пэхкэрэ ловэ налаче джювленца, авиля цэрэ, ту важ лэ чиндан парвардэ гурувэ».
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.
Нэ дад пхэнда чявэсти: «Чяворо! Ту всавири вряма манца. И вса, со мандэ исин, када тиро.
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!’”
Нэ важ кода трэбуни тэ лошавэ, со тиро пхрал сля муло, нэ отджювдиня, сля хацардо, нэ аракхляпэ».
