Luqaassa 5
1 Yesussay Gensereexxe abba lanqqen eqqidi Xoossa qaala tamaarisishin siiyiza asay iza kuni7isides.
One day, as Jesus was standing beside the Sea of Galilee, people crowded around him to hear the word of God.
2 He wode nam77u wogoloti abba achchan dishin Yesussay be7ides. mole oykizayti wogolotappe wodhdhidi mole gitista meeceetes.
Jesus noticed two boats lying on the shore, left there by fishermen who were washing their nets.
3 Yesussay wogolotappe Simoona wogolon gelidi biittafe gede abba gido shishanna mala oychidinne wogolo giddon uttidi asa tamaarsides.
Jesus got into a boat, the one that belonged to Simon, and asked him to push it out into the water, just offshore. Then Jesus sat down in the boat and taught the people from there.
4 Tamaarsidi wursidape guye Simoona abbay ciimmatizaso shiiqqa mole oykanas inte giteza abba gido yegite gides.
After he'd finished speaking, he told Simon, “Go out into deeper water, and let down your nets for a catch.”
5 Simoonay Yesussas zaaridi Godo qamma kumeth daaburi aqqiddi issinokka oykibeyko, gidoattin ne qaalan giteza yegana gides.
“Teacher, we worked hard all night, and didn't catch anything. But if you say so, I'll let down the nets,” Simon replied.
6 Yegida wode daro mole oykida. Giteyka daakettides.
Having done this, a large shoal of fish filled the nets full to breaking point.
7 Hara wogolon dizayti yiidi ista maaddana mala kushera wuti xeygida. Istika yiidi nam77u wogolota mole kunthida. Wogolotika duge miteteth oykida.
They waved to their partners in the other boat, asking them to come over and help. The others came over and together they filled both of the boats with fish. The boats were so full that they began to sink.
8 Simoona geettetiza Phexiroossay hessa beyidi Yesussa gulbate bolla kundidi Godo ta nagarancha gidida gish ta achchafe kichcha gides.
When Simon Peter saw what had happened, he dropped to his knees before Jesus. “Lord, please stay away from me, for I am a sinful man!” he exclaimed.
9 Izi hessa giday izine izara dizayti oykida daro molezan malalettida gishassa.
For he and everybody with him were completely amazed by the catch of fish that they had landed.
10 Qassekka Simoona laggeti zabidoosa nayti Yaqobeyne Yanisayka wuri malalettida. Yesussaykka Simoona babofa hayssafe guye ne asa oykizadde gidana gides.
James and John, the sons of Zebedee, Simon's partners, felt the same way. “Don't be afraid,” Jesus told Simon. “From now on you'll be fishing for people!”
11 Istika wogolota biittako shiishshidi wursikka yegi7agidi Yesussa kaallida.
So they dragged the boats onto the shore, left everything, and followed Jesus.
12 Yesussay katamatappe issineyin dishin inchirachcha harggey bolla wursi oykida issi asi he kataman dees. He urayka Yesussa beyidi iza sinthan kundidi “Godo ne koyko tana pathana danda7asa” giidi woossides.
Once when Jesus was visiting one of the towns, he met a man there who had a very bad case of leprosy. The man fell with his face to the ground and begged Jesus, “Please Lord, if you're willing, you can make me clean.”
13 Yesussay ba kushe yedi bochchidi “ta dossadis paxa” gides. inchirachchay heeraka dhaydes.
Jesus reached out and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” Immediately the leprosy disappeared.
14 Yesussay izas “hayssa oonaskka yootoppa, gido attin baada nena qeese halaqas bessa istas marka gidana mala ne geeyidayssas Musey azazida yarshoza shiishsha” giidi azazides.
“Say nothing to anyone,” Jesus instructed him. “Go and show yourself to the priest and make the ceremonial offerings as required by the law of Moses as proof that you've been healed.”
15 Gido attin iza gish asay haasa7iza worey kaseppe aakki aakki biddes. Keehi daro asay iza haasa7a siyanasinne bena sakiza harggefe paxanas izako shiiqidees.
Yet the news about Jesus spread more and more. Large crowds came to hear Jesus and to be healed from their diseases.
16 Yesussay daro wode asi bayndda poqqethaso biidi woossides.
But Jesus often used to retreat to quiet places and pray.
17 Yesussay tamaarsishin asay Galilappenne Yihudappe qassekka Yerusalemeppe yida Farsawetinne woga tamaarisizayti heen uttida. Izi pathana mala Goda wolqay izara dees.
One day when Jesus was teaching, the Pharisees and religious teachers who had come from all over Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem were sitting there. The power of the Lord to heal was with him so he could heal.
18 He wode asay issi kumetha bollay silidi qaaxonta harggancha zaphara tooki ekki yiidi keethe gelthidi Yesussa sinthan wothanas paacida.
Some men arrived carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They tried to take him in and lay him in front of Jesus.
19 Asa darotethafe dendidaysani keethe gelthanas xoonetida gish pude keeththa kaara bolla kezidinne kaara lukidi harggancha zaphara tooki ehidi asa giddora Yesussa sinthan wothida.
But they couldn't find any way through the crowd, so they went up on the roof and made a hole in the roof tiles. Then they lowered the man down on the mat, right into the crowd in front of Jesus.
20 Yesussay ista amano beyidi hayso ne ne nagarappe maaristadasa gides.
When Jesus saw the trust they had in him, he said to the man, “Your sins are forgiven.”
21 Muse woga xaafizaytine Farsaweti haysi Xoossa bolla xallatethan hayssatho haasa7izay izi oonee? Issi Xoossafe attin nagara maaranaas ooni danda7ize giidi qoppida.
The religious teachers and the Pharisees began to argue with that. “Who is this who's speaking blasphemies?” they asked. “Who can forgive sins? Only God can do that!”
22 Yesussay ista qofa erida gish “inte inte wozinan ays hessaththo qoppeti?” gides.
Jesus knew what they were arguing about, so he asked them, “Why are you thinking to question this?
23 Neni nagarappe maaristadasa gusafenne dendada ba gusafe awayssi kawishee?
What is easier? To say your sins are forgiven, or to say get up and walk?
24 Gido attin ta hayssa giday asa naas biitta bolla asa nagarappe maaranaas Godatethi dizaysa inte erana mala. Qassekka he sila ura “nena gays! eqqa dendada ne zapha tookada baa” gides.
However, I will prove to you that the Son of man has the authority here on earth to forgive sins.” Then he said to the paralyzed man, “I tell you: Get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”
25 Izi heeraka ista sinthan dendi eqqides. Kase ba zin7ida zapha tookidi Xoossa galatishe beso bides.
Immediately the man stood up in front of them. He picked up the mat he'd been lying on, and went home, praising God as he went.
26 He wode asi wuri malalettides. Xoossa galatishe hach malalisizaz be7ides giidi daro babida.
Everyone was completely astonished at what had happened, and in great awe they praised God, saying, “What we saw today was amazing!”
27 Hessafe guye Yesussay heeppe kezi bides. Lewe giza issi qaraxa qanxisizaysi qaraxa qanxizason uttidaysa beyidi tana kaalla gides.
Later, as Jesus was leaving the town, he saw a tax collector called Levi sitting at his tax booth. “Follow me,” Jesus told him.
28 Izika wursi aggidi iza kaallides.
Levi stood up, left everything, and followed Jesus.
29 Leweyka Yesussassi ba keeththan gita diggisa diggisides. Qaraxa shiishiza daro asattinne hara asatikka istara issife maaddan uttida.
Levi organized a large banquet at his home in Jesus' honor. Many tax collectors and others were in the crowd that sat down to eat with them. But the Pharisees and the religious teachers complained to Jesus' disciples, asking,
30 Farsawetinne ista Xaafeti qaraxa shiishshizaytarane nagaranchatara issife aazas meeti giidi Yesussa kaallizayta bolla zigirettida.
“Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”
31 Yesussaykka istas hargganchatas attin paxa asas aakkime koshshenna gides.
“Healthy people don't need a doctor—but sick people do,” Jesus replied.
32 Taka nagaranchata maaretethako zaranaas attin xillota xeyganas yabeykke gides.
“I didn't come to call those who are living right to repentance—I came to call sinners.”
33 Istika zaaridi Yanisa kaallizayti daro wode xoometesinne woosetes Farsawista kaallizaytikka izathokka oothetes. Nena kaallizayti gidikko wurso wode meettesinne uyettes gida.
“Well, John's disciples often fast and pray, and the Pharisees' disciples do so as well. But your disciples don't—they go on eating and drinking,” they told him.
34 Yesussaykka istas zaaridi mishray issife dishin diggissasi xeeysettidayta xoomisanaas bessizze? gides.
“Should the groomsmen fast while the bridegroom is with them?” Jesus asked.
35 Gido attin mishray istafe shaakistana wodey yaana isti he wode xoomana.
“No—but the time is coming when the bridegroom will be taken away from them. Then they can fast.”
36 Istas oorath mayoppe qanxi ekkidi gal77a mayo bolla wothi sikizaaddey deenna wothi sikkikko oorathazi gal77ara gaaggonta gish gal77aza daakkana gides.
Then he gave them an illustration: “You don't tear out a patch from new clothes to mend old clothes. Otherwise you'd ruin new clothes, and the patch from the new wouldn't match the old.
37 Woyneppe othetida oorath cajje gal77a ogoron kunthidi wothiza asi oonikka baawa wothiza gidikko woyneppe oothettida ooratha cajjey gal77aza daakana. Woyne cajjezikka biittan gukkana gal7a ogoroy sinthafe go7ontaz gidana.
You don't put new wine into old wineskins, because if you did the new wine would burst the wineskins. Then both wine and wineskins would be wasted.
38 Hessa gish ooratha woyne ushy ooratha ogoron gujjistanas besses.
You put new wine in new wineskins.
39 Histikko caalla woyne ush uyidaappe guye caalontazi uyana koyizay ooninne deenna gaasoyka caallay lo7o giza gish.
And nobody after drinking old wine wants new wine, for they say, ‘the old tastes good.’”
