Luqaassa 18
1 Bena kaallizayti azalontta wurso wode woossanas bessizaysa erisanas Yesussay ha leemusoza istas yoottides.
THEN he spake also to them a parable, to shew that we ought to pray always, and not faint;
2 “Issi kataman Xoossine babbontta asenne bonchontta issi daannay dees.
saying, There was a certain judge in a particular city, having no fear of God, nor respect for man:
3 He katamankka issi am77i maccash daysu, izakka ta balggarara taas moottoy diza gish firdarikki gashe izakko simeristadus.
and there was a certain widow in that city; and she came to him, saying, Do me justice against my adversary.
4 Daannazikka daro wode gakanas izis firdibeynna, gido attin guyyeppe ba wozinan Xoossi babbontta assekka bonchontta agikko,
And he would not for a long while: but after this he said, Though I fear not God, nor respect man;
5 hanna am77e maccashiya tana wayssiza gish ta izis pirdana, hessa histonta agikko wurso wode simeristada tana daabbursana.” gides.
yet because this woman is so troublesome to me, I will do her justice, lest by her perpetual coming she stun me with her importunity,
6 Godaykka hizgides “makkal7ancha daannay gidayssa siyite,
Then said the Lord, Hear what the unjust judge saith.
7 Xoossi gallassinne omars izakko wassiza doorettidaytas fiiddenneyee? Tana ay metide giidi ba maado gam7issandee?
And shall not God execute vengeance for his own elect, who cry out to him day and night, though he bear long with them?
8 Ta intes gays istas elle firdana, gido attin asa nay yiza wode biitta bolla amano demandeeshsha?”
Yes, I tell you, that he will avenge them quickly. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, ah! shall he find faith on the earth?
9 Bena xillo asa mala qoodidi ceqettizaytasnne harata leqo ayfen xeelizaytas leemusora hizgides.
Then he spake also this parable to certain persons, who had confidence in themselves, that they were righteous, and despised others:
10 Nam77u asati woossanas maqddase bida, issay Farsawe hinkkoysi qaraxa shiishizadde.
Two men went up to the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, the other a tax-farmer.
11 Farsawezikka eqqidi ba gish hizgi woossides, Xoosso! tani hara asa mala bonqqizadde, makkal7izadde, laymatizadde harapekka hayssa qaraxa shiishshizadde mala gidonta aggida gish ta nena galatays.
The Pharisee, standing by himself, made this prayer: God, I thank thee, that I am not as the rest of mankind, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or as this tax-gatherer.
12 Samintan nam77a xoomays, taas dizaysafe tamappe issa immays.
I keep a fast twice a week, I pay the tenth of all things I possess.
13 Gido attin qaraxa shiishshizaddezi haahon eqqidi pude salo dhoqqu giidi xeellanas koybeynna, gido attin ba tira icishe “Xoosso! tana nagaranchaza maara gides.”
And the tax-gatherer standing at a distance, would not even so much as lift his eyes heaven-ward, but smote on his breast, saying, May God accept the atonement for me a sinner!
14 Ta intes yootays Xoossa sinthan Farsawezi xillotethi demibeyna shin haysi qaraxizaysi xilidi ba so simmides. Bena dhoqqusizay wuri ziq gaana, bena ziqsizay gidikko dhoqqu gaana.
I say to you, Went this man down to his house justified, or the other? for every one who exalteth himself shall be humbled; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
15 Yesussay bochcherethanna mala asay guutha nayta izakko ehides. Iza kaallizaytikka hessa beydda wode hanqettida.
Then they brought him infants also, that he should touch them: but the disciples, when they saw it, rebuked them.
16 Gido attin Yesussay guutha nayta beekko xeeygidi hiz gides “guutha nayti taakko yanayisa diggoppite, Xoossa kawotethi haytanta malaatasa.
But Jesus calling them to him, said, Permit little children to come to me, and hinder them not for of such is the kingdom of God.
17 Ta intes tumu gays, Xoossa kawotethi guutha na mala ekkontay wuri izin gelenna.”
Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.
18 Ayhuddista halaqqatappe issay kiya astaamarezo medhina deyo lattanas ay ootho giidi oychchides. (aiōnios g166)
And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, by doing what shall I inherit eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
19 Yesussaykka hizgidi zarides, “aazas tana kiya gazii? Issi Xoossafe attin hara kiyay deenna.
Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good, but one, even God.
20 Laymatoppa, wodhoppa, kaysotoppa, wordo markkattofa, ne aawanne ne boncha giza azazoza eraasa.
Thou knowest the commandments, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother.
21 Addezzikka hayta gidikko guutha natetethafe doomada naagadis gides.
Then he said, All these things have I observed from my youth.
22 Yesussaykka hessa siyida wode histtikko nees issi miish paces, nees dizaz wursa bayizadda manqotas imma, salo mazgaban demandasa, izape guye yaada tana kaalla gides.
Then Jesus hearing this, said to him, Yet one thing thou lackest: sell all whatsoever thou hast, and distribute to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.
23 Gido attin addezzi hessa siyida wode daro haaroy izas diza gish keehi michetides.
But he, on hearing these things, was exceeding sorrowful: for he was very rich.
24 Yesussaykka addezza xeellidi daro miishi diza asati Xoossa kawotethi gelanays aymala meto” gides.
Then Jesus, observing that he was very sorrowful, said, How difficultly shall they who have riches, enter into the kingdom of God!
25 Durey Xoossa kawotethi gelanaysafe gaammelay narppe lukkora gelanaysi matana.
It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
26 Hessa siyida asay histin oonii attanna dandda7izee? gides.
And those who heard it said, Who then can be saved?
27 Yesussaykka asa achchan dandda7etontay Xoossa achchan dandda7etees gides.
And he said, The things impossible with men, are possible with God.
28 Phexirosaykka hekko nuni nuus dizaz wursi aggiddi nena kaallidos gides.
Then said Peter, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee.
29 Yesussaykka istas ta intes tumu gays Xoossa kawotethas giidi ba keeth, ba machcho, ba ishanta woykko bena yeliddayta woykko ba nayta aggida uray
And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, that there is no man who hath left family, or parents, or brothers, or wife, or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God,
31 Yesussaykka bena kaalliza tammanne nam77anta dumma efidi ha7i nuni Yerusaleme kezana goos, nabeti asa na gish xaafidaysi wuri polistana.
Then taking aside the twelve, he said to them, Lo, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all things written by the prophets concerning the Son of man will be fulfilled.
32 Dere asas aathi immana, istikka iza qidhi ka77ananne waysana, iza bolla cuttana
For he shall be delivered up to the Gentiles, and they shall insult him, and treat him with indignity, and spit upon him:
33 garafana hessafekka zaaridi wodhana. Izikka heezzantho gallas hayqqoppe dendana gides.
and after scourging, shall slay him: and the third day he shall rise again.
34 Iza kaallizayti gidikko hessa wursofe isinoka eribeyttenna. Iza guussaykka istafe gemettides. Izi aaza gish hasa7idaakkonne eribeyttenna.
And they understood none of these things: and the saying was concealed from them, and they knew not the things which were spoken.
35 Yesussay Yarko gizaso matida wode issi qooqe addey oge duunan uttidi woossishe dees.
And it came to pass, as he drew nigh to Jerusalem, a certain blind man sat by the road-side begging:
36 Qooqe addezzikka daro asay ogera aadhdhizaysa siyidi hessi aazzee? gi oychchides.
and hearing the multitude passing by, he inquired what was the cause.
37 Isttikka izas Naazirete Yesussay hayssara aadhdhes giidi yootida.
And they told him, that Jesus the Nazarean is going by.
38 Izikka Dawite na Yesussa taas qadhetta gi wassides.
And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me!
39 Yesussappe sintheti bizaytti c7o7uga giidi hanqqettida. gido attin izi Dawite no taas qadhetta giidi darisi waassidees.
And they who were going before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried so much the more, Son of David, have mercy on me!
40 Yesussaykka eqqidi addezza izakko ehanna mala azaziddes, izikka izakko shiiqida wode
Then Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be brought to him: and when he was come near, he asked him,
41 ta nees ay oothanna mala koyay giidi oychchides. Qooqezikka Godo xeellanaas koyays gides.
saying, What wist thou that I should do for thee? Then he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight.
42 Yesussaykka nena ne amanoy pathides xeella gides.
And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee.
43 Addezzikka heerakka xeellidees. Xoossakka bonchishshe Yesussa kaallidees. Hessa beydda derey wuri Xoossa galattides.
And instantly he received sight, and followed him, glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God.
