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.
Исусо пхэндя Пэстирэ сытярнэнди: — Екхэ барвалэ манушэстэ сас пхурэдэр бутярно, саво дикхэлас палав лэско хулаимос. Пала лэстэ роспхэндэ, со вов ростерэл о барвалимос лэ хуласко.
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!’
Хулай выакхардя лэс пэстэ тай пхэндя: «Со када мэ шунав пала тутэ? Здэ и бути, колэстар со ту будэр на авэса тэ дикхэс пала мэрно хулаимос».
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].’
Пхурэдэр бутярно гындосардя: «Со манди акана тэ терав? Хулай вытрадэл ман пай бути. Тэ жав тэ ганавав и пхув нинай зор мандэ, тэ мангав манди лажаво.
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!’
Мэ жанав, со манди трэбуй тэ терав кадя, соб, сар ман вытрадэна кала бутятар, тэ аракхадён кацавэ мануша, савэ прилэна ман пэстэ».
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?’
И вов ля тэ акхарэл екх пала екхэстэ пэстирэ хуластирэн ужылимарен. Екхэстэ пушля: «Скачи ту ужыло мэрнэ хуласти?»
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]!’
«Шэл кхорэ оливково дзэто», — пхэндя кодва. Бутярно пхэндя лэсти: «Лэ пэско запистросаримос, бэш и майсыго пэрэпистросар пэ пандэша».
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].
Тунчи вов пушля аврэстэ ужылимарестэ: «Ай ту скачи ужыло?» «Мия гонэ ворзо», — пхэндя кодва. Бутярно пхэндя лэсти: «Залэ пэско запистросаримос и пэрэпистросар пэ охтошэла».
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)
Хулай лашардя пэстирэс хохавнэс пхурэдэр бутярнэс, со годяварнэс тердя. Кала люматирэ шавэ майбут полэн, сар тэ андярэн пэс аврэ манушэнца, сар шавэ Дэвлэстирэ, Саво исин Удуд. (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)
Ай Мэ пхэнав тумэнди: терэн пэсти амалэн найчячимастирэ барвалимаса, кай, кала лэс на авэла, тумэн тэ прилэн андэ чера пэ вако. (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].
Ко патимаско андэ найбари бути, кодва авэла патимаско андэ бари бути. Ай ко найпатимаско андэ найбари бути, кодва авэла найпатимаско и андэ бари бути.
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]
И сар тумэ найпатимастирэ андо найжужо барвалимос, ко дэла тумэнди чячюно?
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]
И сар тумэ сас найпатимастирэ, кала терэнас бути на андо пэско хулаимос, ко дэла тумэнди тумаро?
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].”
Нисаво бутярно на авэла тэ терэл бути пэ дуй хулая. Вов екхэс авэла фартэ тэ на камэл, ай аврэс тэ камэл, екхэсти авэла чячюнэса, ай пэ авэр на тховэла патив. Тумэ нисар на авэна тэ терэн бути андэ екх вряма важ о Дэл и важ о барвалимос.
14 There were some Pharisees [there]. They loved [to acquire] money. When they heard Jesus say that, they ridiculed him.
Фарисеёря, савэ камэнас ловэ, шундэ када вся и асанаспэ Исусостар.
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.
Исусо пхэндя лэнди: — Англай мануша тумэ сикавэн пэс, кай тумэ жужэ водеса, нэ о Дэл жанэл тумарэ водя. Кода, со учес кай мануша исин выритимос англав Дэл.
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].
Вряма Законоско ай пророконго сас жыкай Иоано, ай икхатар роспхэнэлпэ Радосаво Лав палав Тхагаримос Дэвлэско, и всаворэ тховэн зора, соб тэ зажа андэр лэстэ.
17 [All of God’s] laws, [even those that seem] insignificant, are more permanent than heaven and earth.
Майсыго болыбэн и пхув ужана, сар екх майцэкни пистросарди андав Законо хасардёла!
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.”
Ко розжалпэ пэстиря ромняса и лэл авря ромня, кодва терэл лубимос, и ко лэл ромня, сави розжыляпэ пэстирэ ромэса, терэл лубимос.
19 [Jesus also said] [MET], “Once there was a rich man who wore [expensive] purple linen [garments]. He ate luxuriously every day.
Жувэлас екх барвало мануш. Вов урявэласпэ андэ майкучютни йида, и всаворо жувимос лэстэ сас сар радосаво свэнко.
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.
Ай паша лэстирэ градатирэ удар пашлёлас чёроро, савэс акхарэнас Лазарё, всаворо обшуто насвалимаса.
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.
Вов фартэ камэлас тэ хал кода, со пэрэлас пай мэсали кав барвало. Риконэ авэнас и шыбаса жужарэнас лэстирэ дукха.
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}.
О чёроро муля, и ангелоря одандярдэ лэс кав Авраамо. Муля и барвало, тай гарадэ лэс.
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)
Барвало сас андо адо андэ бари грыжа. Вов вазгля якха тай удикхля дур пэстар лэ Авраамос, ай паша лэстэ Лазарёс. (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!’
Вов акхардя: «Дад Авраамо, тангосар ман и бишал лэ Лазарёс, мэк вов тховэл пэско най андо паи и шол пэ шыб мэрни, а то мэ фартэ грыжавав андэ кадья яг».
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.
Нэ Авраамо пхэндя: «Бэято, гындосар, со ту лян андо тиро жувимос лашымос, а Лазарё ля выритимос. Икхатар вов катэ радолпэ, а ту грыжоспэ.
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.’
Тай инкэ, машкар амэндэ ай тумэндэ — бари выганавди, и кала варико закамэла тэ пэрэжал катар тумэндэ ай тумэндар амэндэ, на пэрэжана».
27 Then the rich man said, ‘If that is so, father [Abraham], I ask you [(sg)] to send [Lazarus] to my father’s house.
Барвало пхэндя: «Тунчи мангав тут, дадэ, бишал Лазарёс андо чер мэрнэ дадэстэ.
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!’
Мандэ исин панч пхрала, мэк вов умангэл лэн, кай и онэ тэ на попэрэн кардэ, андо тхан грыжако».
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]!’
Авраамо пхэндя: «Лэндэ исин Моисеё и пророкоря, мэк лэн ашунэн».
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.’
«Нат, дад Авраамо, — пхэндя барвало, — сар авэла варико андай мулэ лэндэ, тунчи онэ каисавэна».
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].’”
Пэ када Авраамо пхэндя лэсти: «Сар лэ Моисеёс и лэ пророкон на ашунэн, тунчи, кала ко андай мулэ жундёла, онэ на патяна».
