Luke 16
1 [Jesus] also said to his disciples, “Once there was a rich man who had a household manager. [One day] he was told {[someone] told him} that [the manager] was managing the rich man’s money badly.
Un Viņš sacīja arī uz Saviem mācekļiem: “Kādam bagātam vīram bija nama turētājs, un tas viņa priekšā tapa apsūdzēts, ka viņa mantu esot izšķērdējis.
2 So he summoned [his manager] and said to him, ‘(It is terrible what they are saying about you [(sg)]!/Is it true what they are saying about you [(sg)] [RHQ]?) Give me a written account of [the funds] you have been managing, because you can no longer be my [household] manager!’
Un to aicinājis, viņš uz to sacīja: kā es to dzirdu par tevi? Atbildi par savu nama turēšanu; jo tu joprojām nevari būt nama valdītājs.
3 Then the manager thought to himself, ‘My master is going to fire me, so (I do not know what to do./what shall I do [RHQ]?) I am not strong enough to [work by] digging ditches, and I am ashamed to beg [for money].’
Bet tas nama turētājs runāja pats pie sevis: ko nu darīšu? Mans kungs man atņem nama valdīšanu. Rakt nespēju, diedelēt kaunos.
4 [Suddenly he had an idea]. ‘I know what I will do, so that people will take me into their houses [and provide for me] after I am dismissed {after my master dismisses me} from my work!’
Es zinu, ko darīšu, kad no amata topu nocelts, lai tie mani uzņem savos namos.
5 So [one by one] he summoned the people who owed his master money. He asked the first one, ‘How much do you [(sg)] owe my master?’
Un saaicinājis visus sava kunga parādniekus, viņš sacīja uz to pirmo: cik tu manam kungam esi parādā?
6 The man replied, ‘Eight hundred gallons of olive oil.’ The manager said to him, ‘Take your bill and sit down and quickly change it to 400 [gallons]!’
Un tas sacīja: simts mucu eļļas. Un viņš uz to sacīja: ņem savu grāmatu, sēdies un raksti tūdaļ piecdesmit.
7 He said to another man, ‘How much do you owe?’ The man replied, ‘A thousand bushels of wheat.’ The manager said to him, ‘Take your bill and change it to 800 [bushels]!’ [He did similar things for the others who owed his master money].
Tad viņš uz to otru sacīja: bet tu, cik tu esi parādā? Un tas sacīja: simts mēru kviešu. Un viņš uz to sacīja: ņem savu grāmatu un raksti astoņdesmit.
8 When his master [heard what the manager had done], he admired the dishonest manager for the clever thing he had done. [The truth] is that the ungodly people in this world act more wisely toward other people than godly people [MET] act. (aiōn g165)
Un Tas Kungs uzteica to netaisno nama turētāju, ka tas gudri bija darījis; jo šīs pasaules bērni ir gudrāki savā kārtā nekā tie gaismas bērni. (aiōn g165)
9 [So] I tell you [(pl)] this: Use the money that you have [here] on earth to help others so that they will become your friends. Then when [you die and] you cannot [take] any money with you, [God and his angels] will welcome you into a home [in heaven] that will last forever. (aiōnios g166)
Un Es jums saku: dariet sev draugus no tās netaisnās mantas, ka tie, kad jums nu pietrūkst, jūs uzņem tais mūžīgos dzīvokļos. (aiōnios g166)
10 People who faithfully manage small [matters] will also faithfully manage important [matters]. People who are dishonest in [the way they handle] small [matters] will be dishonest [in the way they handle] important [matters].
Kas vismazākā lietā ir uzticīgs, tas arīdzan lielākā ir uzticīgs; bet kas vismazākā ir netaisns, tas arī lielākā ir netaisns.
11 So if you have not faithfully handled the money that [God has given you here] on earth, (he will certainly not allow you to possess the true [spiritual] riches [in heaven!]/would he allow you to possess the true [spiritual] riches [in heaven]?) [RHQ]
Ja tad jūs pie netaisnās mantas neesat uzticīgi, kas jums uzticēs patieso?
12 And if you have not faithfully managed things that belong to other people, ([God] will certainly not allow you to receive [treasures in heaven that] would belong to you!/would God allow you to receive [treasures in heaven that] would belong to you?) [RHQ]
Un kad jūs iekš svešas lietas neesat uzticīgi, kas jums dos jūsu pašu?
13 No servant is able to serve two [different] bosses [at the same time. If he tried to do that], he would prefer one of them more than the other one; he would be loyal to one of them and despise the other one. [Similarly], you cannot [devote your life] to worshipping God and [worshipping] money and material goods [at the same time].”
Neviens kalps nevar kalpot diviem kungiem; jo tas vienu ienīdēs un otru mīlēs, jeb vienam pieķersies un otru atmetīs. Jūs nevarat kalpot Dievam un mantai.”
14 There were some Pharisees [there]. They loved [to acquire] money. When they heard Jesus say that, they ridiculed him.
Bet šo visu arī tie farizeji dzirdēja, kas mantu mīlēja, un tie Viņu apsmēja.
15 But he said to them, “You try to make other people think that you are righteous, but God knows your (inner beings/hearts). [So he will reject you. Keep in mind that many] things that people think are important, God thinks are detestable.
Un Viņš uz tiem sacīja: “Jūs esat tie, kas paši taisnojās cilvēku priekšā, bet Dievs pazīst jūsu sirdis; jo kas cilvēku starpā ir augsts, tas ir negantība Dieva priekšā.
16 The laws that [God gave Moses] and what the prophets [MTY] [wrote] were ([in effect/what you needed to obey]) until John [the Baptizer] came. Since then [I] have been preaching about how God wants to [rule people’s lives in a new way], and many people are [accepting that message and] very eagerly asking God to control [their lives. But that does not mean that God has abolished the laws that he established previously].
Bauslība un pravieši ir līdz Jānim; no tā laika Dieva valstības evaņģēlijs top sludināts, un ikkatrs ar varu laužās tur iekšā.
17 [All of God’s] laws, [even those that seem] insignificant, are more permanent than heaven and earth.
Vieglāki ir, ka debess un zeme zūd, nekā no bauslības viena rakstu zīmīte zustu.
18 [For example, because God considers that a marriage lasts until either the husband or the wife dies, he considers that] any man who divorces his wife and marries another woman is committing adultery. He also [considers that] any man who marries a woman who has been divorced by her husband {whose husband has divorced her} is [also] committing adultery.”
Ikviens, kas no savas sievas šķirās un precē citu, tas pārkāpj laulību, un ikviens, kas vienu no vīra atšķirtu precē, tas pārkāpj laulību.
19 [Jesus also said] [MET], “Once there was a rich man who wore [expensive] purple linen [garments]. He ate luxuriously every day.
Kāds bagāts vīrs bija, tas ģērbās ar purpuru un dārgu audekli, un dzīvoja ikdienas kārumā un līksmībā.
20 And every day a poor man whose name was Lazarus was laid {[some people also] laid a poor man whose name was Lazarus} at the gate of the rich man’s [house]. Lazarus’ body was covered with sores.
Bet arī kāds nabags bija, vārdā Lāzarus, tas gulēja priekš viņa durvīm, pilns ar vātīm,
21 He [was so hungry that he] wanted to eat the scraps [of food] that fell from the table where the rich man [ate]. Furthermore, [to make things worse], dogs came and licked his sores.
Un gribēja paēst no tām druskām, kas krita no tā bagātā galda. Bet tikai suņi nāca un laizīja viņa vātis.
22 [Eventually] the poor man died. Then he was taken by the angels {the angels took him} to [start feasting] next to his [ancestor] Abraham. The rich man also died, and his body was buried {[some people] buried his body}.
Bet gadījās, ka tas nabags nomira un no eņģeļiem tapa aiznests Ābrahāma klēpī, un tas bagātais arīdzan nomira un tapa aprakts.
23 In the place where dead people wait [for God to judge them], he was suffering great pain. He looked up and saw Abraham far away, and he saw Lazarus sitting close to Abraham. (Hadēs g86)
Kad tas nu bija ellē un mokās, tad tas pacēla savas acis un redzēja Ābrahāmu no tālienes un Lāzaru viņa klēpī, (Hadēs g86)
24 So he shouted, ‘Father Abraham, I am suffering very much in this fire! So [please] pity me, and send Lazarus [here] so that he can dip his finger in water [and touch] my tongue to cool it!’
Un sauca un sacīja: tēvs Ābrahām, apžēlojies par mani un sūti Lāzaru, lai tas savu pirksta galu iemērc ūdenī un dzisina manu mēli, jo es ciešu lielas mokas šinīs uguns liesmās.
25 But Abraham replied, ‘Son, remember that while you [(sg)] were alive [on earth] you enjoyed [many] good things. But Lazarus was miserable. Now [it is fair that] he is happy here, and you are suffering.
Bet Ābrahāms atbildēja: piemini, dēls, ka tu savu labumu esi dabūjis savā dzīvības laikā, un Lāzarus turpretī ļaunumu, bet tagad šis top iepriecināts, bet tu topi mocīts.
26 Besides that, there is a huge ravine between you [(sg)] and us. So those who want to go from here to where you [(sg)] are, are not able to. Furthermore, no one can cross from there to where we [(exc)] are.’
Un turklāt starp jums un mums ir liela starpa, ka tie, kas no šejienes gribētu noiet pie jums, nevar; nedz arī no turienes pārnākt pie mums.
27 Then the rich man said, ‘If that is so, father [Abraham], I ask you [(sg)] to send [Lazarus] to my father’s house.
Un viņš sacīja: tad es tevi lūdzu, tēvs, sūti viņu uz mana tēva namu.
28 I have five brothers [who live there]. Tell him to warn them [to turn away from their sinful behavior so that] they do not also come to this place, where [we(exc)] suffer great pain!’
Jo man vēl pieci brāļi; lai viņš tos pamāca, ka tie arīdzan nenāk šinī moku vietā.
29 But Abraham replied, ‘[No, I will not do that, because your brothers] are able to [go to the Jewish meeting places where the priests] read what Moses and the prophets [wrote]. They should listen to what Moses and the prophets [MTY] [wrote]!’
Ābrāms uz to sacīja: tiem ir Mozus un pravieši, lai tie tos klausa.
30 But the rich man replied, ‘No, father Abraham, [that will not be enough] But if someone from those who have died goes back to them [and warns them], they will turn from their sinful behavior.’
Bet tas sacīja: Nē, tēvs Ābrahām, bet kad viens no mirušiem pie tiem ietu, tad tie atgrieztos no grēkiem.
31 [Abraham] said to him, ‘No! If they do not listen to [what] [MTY] Moses and the prophets [MTY] [wrote], even if someone would become alive again [and go and warn them], they would not be convinced {he could not convince them} [that they should turn from their sinful behavior].’”
Tad viņš uz to sacīja: kad tie neklausa Mozu un praviešus, tad tie arī neticēs, kaut ir kāds no miroņiem augšāmceltos.”
