Luke 15
1 Then drew near to him all the publicans and sinners to hear him.
Hene niropak’ am’ Iesoà amy zao o mpamory vili-lohao rekets’ o bey hakeoo hijanjiñe aze.
2 And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them.
Le hoe ty fitreontreo’ o Fariseoo naho o mpanoki-dilio: Mandrambe mpanan-tahiñe t’indaty tia vaho mitrao-pilintseñe ama’e.
3 And he spoke this parable to them, saying,
Aa le nirazaña’e ty hoe:
4 What man of you having a hundred sheep, if he loseth one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he findeth it?
Ia ama’ areo aman’ añondry zato, ie rereke ty raike, ty tsy hienga i sivampolo sive’ amby rey an-tameañe ey heike, hihitrihitry hitsoeke i motsoy ampara’ te tendreke?
5 And when he hath found [it], he layeth [it] on his shoulders, rejoicing.
Ie isa’e, le anoe’e ega vaho ifalea’e,
6 And when he cometh home, he calleth together [his] friends and neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost.
le ie pok’ añ’ anjomba’e ao, atonto’e o rañe’eo naho o marineo vaho anoe’e ty hoe: Antao hitrao-kaehak’ amako, fa nitreako i añondriko nimotsoy.
7 I say to you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, who need no repentance.
Itaroñako te hirebeke ty andindiñe ao ami’ty bei-hakeo misoloho te ami’ty maren-tane sivampolo sive’ amby tsy aman-kisolohoa’e.
8 Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she loseth one piece, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she findeth [it]?
Ia ka ty rakemba aman-tsanganolo folo, ie motso ty raike ro tsy handrehetse jiro, hipio anjomba hikodebe ampara’ te isa’e?
9 And when she hath found [it], she calleth [her] friends and [her] neighbors together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I had lost.
Ie zoe’e ro mamory o rañe’eo naho o mpifankarine ama’eo hanao ty hoe: Antao hitrao pinembanembañ’ amako; fa nitreako i tsanganolo nimotsoy.
10 Likewise, I say to you, There is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.
Itaroñako te firebehañe ty añatrefa’ o anjelin’ Añahareo ami’ty fibaboha’ ty mpanan-tahiñe raike.
11 And he said, A certain man had two sons:
Tinovo’e ty hoe: Teo t’indaty aman’anadahy roe.
12 And the younger of them said to [his] father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth [to me]. And he divided to them [his] living.
Le hoe ty zai’e aman-drae’e: O aba, atoloro ahy ty anjara lovako. Le zinara’e am’ iereo ty fiveloma’e.
13 And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.
Ie modo ty andro tsy ampeampe le hene natonton-jai’e naho nifokofoko mb’an-tsietoitane añe vaho nirite’e ami’ty hatsivokarañe o fanaña’eo.
14 And when he had spent all, there arose a severe famine in that land; and he began to be in want.
Ie nikapioke, nitondroke ty san-kerè mena amy taney vaho nirota.
15 And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
Aa le niavotse re, noly amy t’indaty tompo-tane nañirak’ aze hiara-dambo an-tete’e añe.
16 And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat; and no man gave to him.
Le naìna’e te ho nañatseke ty tro’e amo hara’e fihanen-damboo, fe tsy eo ty namahañe aze.
17 And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father have bread enough and to spare, and I am perishing with hunger!
Ie nitombalin-dre, le hoe ty fisafiri’e: Firefire amo mpikarama aman-draeko añeo ro tsy enen-kaneñe, izaho mifeake ty kerè atoy!
18 I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,
Hiavotse iraho himpoly mb’ aman-draeko añe, le hanoeko ty hoe: Ry aba, aman-kakeo andindìñey naho ama’o raho
19 And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.
le tsy mañev’ ahy te hatao ana’o, ehe apoho ho mpiamo tsimañaja’oo.
20 And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.
Aa le niongake re nimpoly mb’ aman-drae’e añe. Ie mbe eñe te nitalaken-drae’e naho niferenaiña’e; vaho nihitrihitry mb’ ama’e mb’eo nametreke ty fititia’e naho norofa’e.
21 And the son said to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.
Fa hoe ty nanoa’ i ana’ey: O aba, aman-tahiñe andindìñey naho ama’o iraho, tsy mañeva ahy ty hatao ty hoe ana’o ka.
22 But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put [it] on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on [his] feet:
Fe hoe ty rae’e amo mpitoro’eo: Hitrifo masika kirahe i sarimbo soay le isaroño; añombeo bange o taña’eo naho hana o tombo’eo
23 And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill [it]; and let us eat, and be merry:
le endeso atoy i ana-bosy vinondrakey, lentao; naho antao hikama vaho hifale.
24 For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.
Amy te nihomake ty anako toy naho nivañom-beloñe, nimotso vaho nitrea. Aa le nifale iereo.
25 Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard music and dancing.
Tan-tetek’ añe i zoke’ey; aa ie nañarine i anjombay, le nahatsanom-peon-kafaleañe naho tsinjake.
26 And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.
Le tsinikao’e ty mpitoroñe, naho nañontane ty foto’ o raha zao.
27 And he said to him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him in health.
Le hoe ty nanoa’ i mpitoroñey: Nivotrak’ atoy i rahalahi’oy; aa kanao nijaranjaiñe i anadahi’ey, le vinonon-drae’o i ana-bosy vinondrakey.
28 And he was angry, and would not go in; therefore his father came out, and entreated him.
Nioroñoroñe amy zao re nifoneñe tsy hizilik’ ao; aa le niakatse ty rae’e hañohò aze.
29 And he answering, said to [his] father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither have I at any time transgressed thy commandment; and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:
Fe hoe re aman-drae’e: Hete, fa haehae ty nitoroñako azo, le tsy nililareko ndra mbia’ mbia o lili’oo; fe mbe lia’e tsy nitolara’o ndra ty vi’e hifalefaleako amo rañekoo.
30 But as soon as this thy son had come, who hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.
Ie niloneake eo i ana-dahi’o nampianto ty harea’o amo tsimirirañeoy, le linenta’o i temboay vinondrakey.
31 And he said to him, Son, thou art ever with me: and all that I have is thine.
Aa hoe ty saontsin-drae’e tama’e: O anake, toe amako etoañe nainai’e irehe; fonga azo o hanañakoo.
32 It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.
Fe evàe’e t’ie mifale naho mirebeke; amy te nihomake i rahalahi’oy f’ie nibodañe, nirereke fe nitendreke.
