< Luke 15 >
1 Now the tax-gatherers and the notorious sinners were everywhere in the habit of coming close to Him to listen to Him;
Leleꞌ naa, atahori mana edꞌa bꞌea ma atahori nda papakeꞌ laen ra sa, akaꞌ rema risiꞌ Yesus fo rae rena E. Te atahori Yahudi ra rae fee se atahori nda maloleꞌ sa.
2 and this led the Pharisees and the Scribes indignantly to complain, saying, "He gives a welcome to notorious sinners, and joins them at their meals!"
Atahori Farisi ro meser agama Yahudi ra rita taꞌo naa ma unggu-remu rae, “Ciih! Atahori ia naꞌabꞌue no atahori nda papakeꞌ ra sa. Lenaꞌ fai Ana endoꞌ naa no se boe!”
3 So in figurative language He asked them,
Yesus rena taꞌo naa ma, Ana dui fee se nekendandaaꞌ nae,
4 "Which of you men, if he has a hundred sheep and has lost one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in their pasture and go in search of the lost one till he finds it?
“Mete ma mia hei ia hambu atahori sa naꞌena bibꞌi lombo natun esa. Boe ma mopo hendi esa. Oras ia atahori naa musi tao sa? Neꞌo ana lao hela bibꞌi lombo ka sio nulu sioꞌ ra reu lenuꞌ sa, ma neu sangga losa ana nita baliꞌ bibꞌi lombo mana mopoꞌ a.
5 And when he has found it, he lifts it on his shoulder, glad at heart.
Leleꞌ ana nita baliꞌ bibꞌi lombo naa, ma nasaa nendi baliꞌ e no nemehoꞌot.
6 Then coming home he calls his friends and neighbours together, and says, 'Congratulate me, for I have found my sheep--the one I had lost.'
Losa ume, ma ana noꞌe nala nonoon nara, de nafadꞌe se nae, ‘Wae! Hei ima mimihoꞌo mo au dei! Huu au ita baliꞌ bibꞌi lombo mana mopoꞌ ngga ena.’
7 I tell you that in the same way there will be rejoicing in Heaven over one repentant sinner--more rejoicing than over ninety-nine blameless persons who have no need of repentance.
Naa, sia sorga o onaꞌ naa boe. mete ma hambu atahori mana tao salaꞌ sa dꞌoaꞌ ena, fo baliꞌ nisiꞌ Lamatuaꞌ, na basa mana sia sorga ra ramahoꞌo. Ara romahoꞌo lenaꞌ huu atahori esa mana bali nisiꞌ Lamatua, mia atahori ka sionulu sioꞌ fo mana rasodꞌa no ndoo-tetuꞌ, ma nda laoꞌ sala dalaꞌ sa.”
8 "Or what woman who has ten silver coins, if she loses one of them, does not light a lamp and sweep the house and search carefully till she finds it?
Boe ma Yesus dui nekendandaaꞌ esa fai nae, “Hambu mama esa naꞌena doi fulaꞌ sanahulu. Te, mopo hendi esa. Oras ia, ana nae tao saa o? Neꞌo ana neu nambilaꞌ lambu fo dꞌelo sia bee-bꞌee, ma ngganggai ume a losa mamana makabiaꞌ ra, fo sangga dꞌoiꞌ naa no malolole.
9 And when she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbours, and says, "'Congratulate me, for I have found the coin which I had lost.'
Leleꞌ ana nita baliꞌ dꞌoiꞌ naa ma, ana neu noꞌe atahori ume titia nara, de nafadꞌe nae, Woi! ima fo mimihoꞌo mo au dei! Huu au ita baliꞌ doi mana mopo ngga ena!’
10 "I tell you that in the same way there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one repentant sinner."
Sia sorga o onaꞌ naa boe. Mete ma hambu atahori mana tao salaꞌ sa dꞌoaꞌ, de baliꞌ nisiꞌ Lamatuaꞌ, na, basa dedꞌenuꞌ sia sorga ramahoꞌo seli boe.”
11 He went on to say, "There was a man who had two sons.
Yesus tute oꞌolan nendiꞌ nekendandaaꞌ laen esa fai nae, “Hambu amaꞌ sa no anan touꞌ rua.
12 The younger of them said to his father, "'Father, give me the share of the property that comes to me.' "So he divided his wealth between them.
Lao esa, ana murin nafadꞌe aman nae, ‘Amaꞌ e! Banggi fee au hata-hetoꞌ ra leo! Boe ma aman babꞌanggi hata-hetoꞌ ra fee neu ruꞌa se.
13 No long time afterwards the younger son got all together and travelled to a distant country, where he wasted his money in debauchery and excess.
Nda dooꞌ sa ma, ana muriꞌ a seo hendi ena nara. De ana mboti bꞌua-baꞌu nara, boe ma lao nisiꞌ nusa dodꞌooꞌ. Sia naa, ana ngganggari doi nara no nesodꞌat sosoa aoꞌ.
14 At last, when he had spent everything, there came a terrible famine throughout that country, and he began to feel the pinch of want.
Leleꞌ doi nara basa ma, ndoe-laꞌas manaseliꞌ dai nusaꞌ naa, de ana o nasodꞌa toꞌa-taa nala seli.
15 So he went and hired himself to one of the inhabitants of that country, who sent him on to his farm to tend swine;
Boe ma neu sangga ues. Atahori sa sia nusaꞌ naa simbo e de denu e hani fafi nara.
16 and he longed to make a hearty meal of the pods the swine were eating, but no one gave him any.
Huu anaꞌ naa nda nabeꞌi ndondoen sa ena, de ana nae naa fafi ra nanaat na. Huu nda hambu atahori esa fee ne nanaat sa boe.
17 "But on coming to himself he said, "'How many of my father's hired men have more bread than they want, while I here am dying of hunger!
Dodꞌoo ma ana duꞌa neu-nema nae, ‘Sia ama ngga umen, basa atahori mana tao-ues ra hambu raa losa raꞌabꞌeta. Te au sia ia aeꞌ a mate ndoes ena.
18 I will rise and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against Heaven and before you:
Malole lenaꞌ, au baliꞌ isiꞌ ama ngga. Fo ufadꞌe ae, “Amaꞌ! Au tao sala monaeꞌ ena neu Lamatuaꞌ ma amaꞌ boe.
19 I no longer deserve to be called a son of yours: treat me as one of your hired men.'
Au nda undandaa dadꞌi amaꞌ anan sa ena. Sadꞌi amaꞌ simbo au dadꞌi ate sia amaꞌ umen, o naa malole boe!’”
20 "So he rose and came to his father. But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and pitied him, and ran and threw his arms round his neck and kissed him tenderly.
Ana duꞌa nala taꞌo naa ma, fela de baliꞌ nisiꞌ aman umen. Feꞌe sia dodꞌooꞌ te toulasiꞌ a nita e, ma tudꞌa kasian mbali e. Ana onda mia umen de nela-nelaꞌ neu soru anan mana baliꞌ a. De ana holu ma idꞌu e.
21 "'Father,' cried the son, 'I have sinned against Heaven and before you: no longer do I deserve to be called a son of yours.'
Boe ma anaꞌ a olaꞌ no aman nae, ‘Amaꞌ! Au tao sala monaeꞌ neu Lamatuaꞌ ma amaꞌ. Au nda undandaa dadꞌi anam sa ena.’
22 "But the father said to his servants, "'Fetch a good coat quickly--the best one--and put it on him; and bring a ring for his finger and shoes for his feet.
Te aman parenda tuteꞌ atahori mana tao ues nara nae, ‘Woi! Lailai, e! Mii haꞌi mendi badꞌu meulauꞌ seli a! fo fee ne pake. Olu ndeli neu lima uꞌun, ma sapatu neu ei nara.
23 Fetch the fat calf and kill it, and let us feast and enjoy ourselves;
Mii lea mala sapi mbarunaꞌ naa fo tati, te hita tae feta-dote teu esa.
24 for my son here was dead and has come to life again: he was lost and has been found.' "And they began to be merry.
Huu ana ngga ia onaꞌ mana mateꞌ ena, te ia naa ana nasodꞌa baliꞌ ena. Ana mopo, te ia naa au hambu baliꞌ e ena.’ Olaꞌ basa taꞌo naa ma, ara feta-dꞌote boe.
25 "Now his elder son was out on the farm; and when he returned and came near home, he heard music and dancing.
Leleꞌ naa, ana uluꞌ a nese ume, huu ana neu tao ues sia osi rala. Leleꞌ ana baliꞌ ma, feꞌe sia dodꞌooꞌ te ana rena atahori raꞌaminaꞌ lii-liiꞌ ma lendo-foti.
26 Then he called one of the lads to him and asked what all this meant.
Boe ma ana noꞌe nala mana tao ues esa, de natane nae, ‘Woi! Tao rarameꞌ saa ia?’
27 "'Your brother has come,' he replied; 'and your father has had the fat calf killed, because he has got him home safe and sound.'
Atahori mana tao ues a nataa nae, ‘Malangga odꞌi ma nema ena. Dadꞌi amaꞌ, denu tati sapi fo tao fefeta monaeꞌ, huu anan baliꞌ no sodꞌaꞌ.’
28 "Then he was angry and would not go in. But his father came out and entreated him.
Rena taꞌo naa, ma ana uluꞌ a namanasa. Ana nda nau ume rala neu sa ena. Boe ma aman nema de kokoe e ume rala neu.
29 "'All these years,' replied the son, 'I have been slaving for you, and I have never at any time disobeyed any of your orders, and yet you have never given me so much as a kid, for me to enjoy myself with my friends;
Te ana namue nae, ‘Amaꞌ! Dꞌuꞌa sobꞌa dei! Dꞌoon basa ia au tao ues itaꞌ mamate ngga onaꞌ ate fee amaꞌ. Au nda ulena-langga neu amaꞌ hihii-nanaun sa. Onaꞌ naa o, amaꞌ nda feꞌe fee mita au hie anaꞌ esa fo tao fefetas umuhoꞌo o nonoo nggara sa boe.
30 but now that this son of yours is come who has eaten up your property among his bad women, you have killed the fat calf for him.'
Tao-tao te amaꞌ ana mana ngganggari hata-hetoꞌ a, neu naꞌaminaꞌ no inaꞌ ra de nabasaꞌ amaꞌ dꞌoin. Ana baliꞌ nema ma, amaꞌ tati sapi malolen seli de tao fefeta monaeꞌ fee ne.’
31 "'You my dear son,' said the father, 'are always with me, and all that is mine is also yours.
Te aman nataa nae, ‘Ana susue ngge! Rena malolole! Leo mo au doo basa ia ena. Basa saa fo amaꞌ enan, naa ra o ho enam boe.
32 We are bound to make merry and rejoice, for this brother of yours was dead and has come back to life, he was lost and has been found.'"
Te oras ia hita musi feta-dꞌote tamahoꞌo, huu odꞌim ia. Feꞌesaꞌan, onaꞌ ana mate ena, te ia naa nasodꞌa baliꞌ ena. Ana mopo ena, te ia naa hambu baliꞌ e ena.’”
