Luke 15
1 And all the tax-gatherers and the sinners were coming nigh to him, to hear him,
Potem so se mu približali vsi davkarji in grešniki, da bi ga poslušali.
2 and the Pharisees and the scribes were murmuring, saying — This one doth receive sinners, and doth eat with them.'
Farizeji in pisarji pa so godrnjali, rekoč: »Ta človek sprejema grešnike in z njimi jé.«
3 And he spake unto them this simile, saying,
Povedal pa jim je to prispodobo, rekoč:
4 'What man of you having a hundred sheep, and having lost one out of them, doth not leave behind the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go on after the lost one, till he may find it?
»Kateri mož izmed vas, ki ima sto ovac, če izgubi eno izmed njih, ali ne bo zapustil devetindevetdesetih v divjini in šel za to, ki je izgubljena, dokler je ne najde?
5 and having found, he doth lay [it] on his shoulders rejoicing,
In ko jo najde, jo vesel naprti na svoja ramena.
6 and having come to the house, he doth call together the friends and the neighbours, saying to them, Rejoice with me, because I found my sheep — the lost one.
In ko pride domov, skliče skupaj svoje prijatelje ter sosede, rekoč jim: ›Veselite se z menoj, kajti našel sem svojo ovco, ki je bila izgubljena.‹
7 'I say to you, that so joy shall be in the heaven over one sinner reforming, rather than over ninety-nine righteous men, who have no need of reformation.
Povem vam, da bo na nebu podobna radost nad enim grešnikom, ki se pokesa, bolj kakor nad devetindevetdesetimi pravičnimi osebami, ki ne potrebujejo kesanja.
8 'Or what woman having ten drachms, if she may lose one drachm, doth not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and seek carefully till that she may find?
Ali katera ženska, ki ima deset koščkov srebra, če izgubi en košček ali ne prižge svetilke in ne pomete hiše in marljivo išče, dokler ga ne najde?
9 and having found, she doth call together the female friends and the neighbours, saying, Rejoice with me, for I found the drachm that I lost.
Ko pa ga je našla, skliče skupaj svoje prijateljice in svoje sosede, rekoč: ›Veselite se z menoj, kajti našla sem košček, ki sem ga izgubila.‹
10 'So I say to you, joy doth come before the messengers of God over one sinner reforming.'
Povem vam, enaka radost je v prisotnosti Božjih angelov nad enim grešnikom, ki se pokesa.«
11 And he said, 'A certain man had two sons,
In rekel je: »Neki človek je imel dva sina
12 and the younger of them said to the father, Father, give me the portion of the substance falling to [me], and he divided to them the living.
in mlajši izmed njiju je rekel svojemu očetu: ›Oče, daj mi moj delež dobrin, ki mi pripadajo.‹ In razdelil jima je svoja sredstva za preživljanje.
13 'And not many days after, having gathered all together, the younger son went abroad to a far country, and there he scattered his substance, living riotously;
Ne veliko dni kasneje pa je mlajši sin zbral vse skupaj in šel na pot v daljno deželo in tam z razuzdanim življenjem potrošil svoje imetje.
14 and he having spent all, there came a mighty famine on that country, and himself began to be in want;
Ko pa je vse zapravil, je v tej deželi nastala silna lakota in začel je živeti v pomanjkanju.
15 and having gone on, he joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him to the fields to feed swine,
In odšel je ter se pridružil meščanu te dežele, ta pa ga je poslal na svoja polja, da pase svinje.
16 and he was desirous to fill his belly from the husks that the swine were eating, and no one was giving to him.
Svoj trebuh pa si je želel napolniti z luščinami, ki so jih jedle svinje, pa mu [jih] nihče ni dal.
17 'And having come to himself, he said, How many hirelings of my father have a superabundance of bread, and I here with hunger am perishing!
Ko pa je prišel k sebi, je rekel: ›Koliko najetih služabnikov mojega očeta ima kruha na pretek, jaz pa umiram od lakote!
18 having risen, I will go on unto my father, and will say to him, Father, I did sin — to the heaven, and before thee,
Vstal bom ter odšel k svojemu očetu in mu bom rekel: ›Oče, grešil sem zoper nebo in pred teboj
19 and no more am I worthy to be called thy son; make me as one of thy hirelings.
in nisem več vreden, da bi se imenoval tvoj sin. Naredi me kakor enega svojih najetih služabnikov.‹‹
20 'And having risen, he went unto his own father, and he being yet far distant, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and having ran he fell upon his neck and kissed him;
In vstal je ter prišel k svojemu očetu. Toda ko je bil še daleč, ga je njegov oče zagledal ter imel sočutje in pritekel ter se oklenil njegovega vratu in ga poljubil.
21 and the son said to him, Father, I did sin — to the heaven, and before thee, and no more am I worthy to be called thy son.
Sin pa mu je rekel: ›Oče, grešil sem zoper nebo in v tvojih očeh in nisem več vreden, da bi se imenoval tvoj sin.‹
22 'And the father said unto his servants, Bring forth the first robe, and clothe him, and give a ring for his hand, and sandals for the feet;
Toda oče je svojim služabnikom rekel: ›Prinesite najboljše svečano oblačilo in ga nadenite nanj in na njegovo roko dajte prstan ter čevlje na njegova stopala
23 and having brought the fatted calf, kill [it], and having eaten, we may be merry,
in privedite sèm pitano tele in ga zakoljite in jejmo ter bodimo veseli,
24 because this my son was dead, and did live again, and he was lost, and was found; and they began to be merry.
kajti ta moj sin je bil mrtev, pa je ponovno živ; bil je izgubljen, pa je najden.‹ In začeli so se veseliti.
25 'And his elder son was in a field, and as, coming, he drew nigh to the house, he heard music and dancing,
Torej njegov starejši sin je bil na polju. Ko pa je prišel ter se bližal hiši, je zaslišal glasbo in ples.
26 and having called near one of the young men, he was inquiring what these things might be,
In poklical je enega izmed služabnikov in vprašal, kaj pomenijo te stvari.
27 and he said to him — Thy brother is arrived, and thy father did kill the fatted calf, because in health he did receive him back.
In ta mu je rekel: ›Tvoj brat je prišel in tvoj oče je zaklal pitano tele, ker ga je prejel živega in zdravega.‹
28 'And he was angry, and would not go in, therefore his father, having come forth, was entreating him;
In bil je jezen in ni hotel vstopiti, zato je njegov oče prišel ven ter ga povabil.
29 and he answering said to the father, Lo, so many years I do serve thee, and never thy command did I transgress, and to me thou didst never give a kid, that with my friends I might make merry;
In odgovoril je in rekel svojemu očetu: ›Glej! Ta mnoga leta ti služim niti nisem kadarkoli prestopil tvoje zapovedi, pa mi vendarle še nikoli nisi dal kozlička, da bi se s svojimi prijatelji lahko poveselil,
30 but when thy son — this one who did devour thy living with harlots — came, thou didst kill to him the fatted calf.
toda takoj, ko je prišel ta tvoj sin, ki je z vlačugami požrl tvoja sredstva za preživljanje, si zanj zaklal pitano tele.‹
31 'And he said to him, Child, thou art always with me, and all my things are thine;
On pa mu je rekel: ›Sin, ti si vedno z menoj in vse, kar imam, je tvoje.
32 but to be merry, and to be glad, it was needful, because this thy brother was dead, and did live again, he was lost, and was found.'
Primerno je bilo, da bi se poveselili in bili veseli, kajti ta tvoj brat je bil mrtev, pa je ponovno živ; in bil je izgubljen, pa je najden.‹«
