Luqaassa 18
1 Bena kaallizayti azalontta wurso wode woossanas bessizaysa erisanas Yesussay ha leemusoza istas yoottides.
He also showed them, by a parable, that they ought to persist in prayer, without growing weary.
2 “Issi kataman Xoossine babbontta asenne bonchontta issi daannay dees.
In a certain city, said he, there was a judge, who neither feared God nor regarded man.
3 He katamankka issi am77i maccash daysu, izakka ta balggarara taas moottoy diza gish firdarikki gashe izakko simeristadus.
And there was a widow in that city, who came to him, saying, Do me justice on my adversary.
4 Daannazikka daro wode gakanas izis firdibeynna, gido attin guyyeppe ba wozinan Xoossi babbontta assekka bonchontta agikko,
For some time he refused; be afterward he argued thus with himself, Although I neither fear God, nor regard man;
5 hanna am77e maccashiya tana wayssiza gish ta izis pirdana, hessa histonta agikko wurso wode simeristada tana daabbursana.” gides.
yet, because this widow importunes me, I will judge her cause; let she come perpetually, and plague me.
6 Godaykka hizgides “makkal7ancha daannay gidayssa siyite,
Mark, said the Lord, what the unjust judge determined.
7 Xoossi gallassinne omars izakko wassiza doorettidaytas fiiddenneyee? Tana ay metide giidi ba maado gam7issandee?
And will not God avenge his elect, who cry to him day and night? Will he linger in their cause?
8 Ta intes gays istas elle firdana, gido attin asa nay yiza wode biitta bolla amano demandeeshsha?”
I assure you, he will suddenly avenge them. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find this belief upon the earth?
9 Bena xillo asa mala qoodidi ceqettizaytasnne harata leqo ayfen xeelizaytas leemusora hizgides.
Then addressing some who were conceited of themselves, as being righteous, and despised others, he proposed this example: --
10 Nam77u asati woossanas maqddase bida, issay Farsawe hinkkoysi qaraxa shiishizadde.
Two men went up to the temple to pray; one a Pharisee, the other a publican.
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, prayed thus: --O God, I thank thee that I am not as other men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
12 Samintan nam77a xoomays, taas dizaysafe tamappe issa immays.
I fast twice a-week. I give tithes of all that 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.”
But the publican, standing at a distance, and not daring so much as to lift up his eyes to heaven, smote his breast, and cried, God, be merciful to 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 assure you, that this man returned home more approved than the other: for whoever exalts himself, shall be humbled; but whoever humbles himself, shall be exalted.
15 Yesussay bochcherethanna mala asay guutha nayta izakko ehides. Iza kaallizaytikka hessa beydda wode hanqettida.
Then they presented babes to him, that he might touch them: the disciples observing 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 the children to come to me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God.
17 Ta intes tumu gays, Xoossa kawotethi guutha na mala ekkontay wuri izin gelenna.”
Indeed, I say to you, whoever will not receive the kingdom of God as a child, shall never enter it.
18 Ayhuddista halaqqatappe issay kiya astaamarezo medhina deyo lattanas ay ootho giidi oychchides. (aiōnios g166)
Then a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Teacher, what good shall I do to obtain eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
19 Yesussaykka hizgidi zarides, “aazas tana kiya gazii? Issi Xoossafe attin hara kiyay deenna.
Jesus answered, Why do you call me good? God alone is good.
20 Laymatoppa, wodhoppa, kaysotoppa, wordo markkattofa, ne aawanne ne boncha giza azazoza eraasa.
You know the commandments: Do not commit adultery; do not commit murder; do not steal; do not give false testimony; honor your father and your mother.
21 Addezzikka hayta gidikko guutha natetethafe doomada naagadis gides.
He replied, All these I have observed from my childhood.
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.
Hearing this, Jesus said to him, Yet in one thing you are deficient: sell all that you have, and distribute to the poor, and you shall have treasure in heaven: then come and follow me.
23 Gido attin addezzi hessa siyida wode daro haaroy izas diza gish keehi michetides.
When he heard this, he was exceedingly sorrowful; for he was very rich.
24 Yesussaykka addezza xeellidi daro miishi diza asati Xoossa kawotethi gelanays aymala meto” gides.
Jesus, perceiving that he was very sorrowful, said, How difficult will it be for men of opulence to enter the kingdom of God.
25 Durey Xoossa kawotethi gelanaysafe gaammelay narppe lukkora gelanaysi matana.
It is easier for a camel to pass through a needle's eye than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.
26 Hessa siyida asay histin oonii attanna dandda7izee? gides.
The hearers said, Who, then, can be saved?"
27 Yesussaykka asa achchan dandda7etontay Xoossa achchan dandda7etees gides.
Jesus answered, Things impossible to men, are possible to God.
28 Phexirosaykka hekko nuni nuus dizaz wursi aggiddi nena kaallidos gides.
Then Peter said, Lo! we have forsaken 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
Jesus answered, Indeed, I say to you, that there is none who shall have forsaken his house, or parents, or brothers, or wife, or children, on account 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 Jesus, taking the twelve aside, said to them, We are now going to Jerusalem, where that all the prophets have written, shall be accomplished on the Son of Man.
32 Dere asas aathi immana, istikka iza qidhi ka77ananne waysana, iza bolla cuttana
For he shall be delivered to the Gentiles, and ridicules, and insulted, and spitted on.
33 garafana hessafekka zaaridi wodhana. Izikka heezzantho gallas hayqqoppe dendana gides.
And after scourging, they will kill him; and he shall rise again the third day.
34 Iza kaallizayti gidikko hessa wursofe isinoka eribeyttenna. Iza guussaykka istafe gemettides. Izi aaza gish hasa7idaakkonne eribeyttenna.
But they understood none of these things: this discourse was dark to them; they did not comprehend its meaning.
35 Yesussay Yarko gizaso matida wode issi qooqe addey oge duunan uttidi woossishe dees.
When he came near to Jericho, a blind man who sat by the way-side begging,
36 Qooqe addezzikka daro asay ogera aadhdhizaysa siyidi hessi aazzee? gi oychchides.
hearing the crowd pass by, inquired what was the matter.
37 Isttikka izas Naazirete Yesussay hayssara aadhdhes giidi yootida.
And being told that Jesus the Nazarene was passing by,
38 Izikka Dawite na Yesussa taas qadhetta gi wassides.
he immediately cried, saying, Jesus, Son of David, have pity on me.
39 Yesussappe sintheti bizaytti c7o7uga giidi hanqqettida. gido attin izi Dawite no taas qadhetta giidi darisi waassidees.
They who went before, charged him to be silent; but he cried the louder, saying, Jesus, Son of David, have pity on me.
40 Yesussaykka eqqidi addezza izakko ehanna mala azaziddes, izikka izakko shiiqida wode
Jesus stopped, and commanded them to bring the man to him. And when he was nigh, he asked him, saying,
41 ta nees ay oothanna mala koyay giidi oychchides. Qooqezikka Godo xeellanaas koyays gides.
What do you wish me to do for you? He answered, Master, to give me my sight.
42 Yesussaykka nena ne amanoy pathides xeella gides.
And Jesus said to him, Receive your sight; your faith has cured you.
43 Addezzikka heerakka xeellidees. Xoossakka bonchishshe Yesussa kaallidees. Hessa beydda derey wuri Xoossa galattides.
Instantly he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God; and all the people saw it, and praised God.
