Luuqaasa 16
1 Yesuusi ba tamaaretakko, “Issi dure uraas iyappe garssara issi shuumay de7ees. He shuumay ba godaa shaluwa toochchees yaagiya worey keethaawa gakkis.
He also said to his disciples, "There was a certain rich man who had a manager. An accusation was made to him that this man was wasting his possessions.
2 Keethaaway shuumaa xeegisidi, ‘Taani woygiyabaa si7adinaa? Hizappe neeni ta keethas shuuma gidada oothanaw dandda7onna gisho ta shaluwa taw sheedhdha’ yaagis.
He called him, and said to him, 'What is this that I hear about you? Give an accounting of your management, for you can no longer be manager.'
3 “He shuumaykka ba wozanan hayssada yaagidi qoppis. ‘Ta goday tana shuumatethaafe wothana hanees, goya aqanaw wolqqi baawa, woossa maanaw yeellayees; yaatin ta waano?
"The manager said within himself, 'What will I do, seeing that my lord is taking away the management position from me? I do not have strength to dig. I am ashamed to beg.
4 Shuumatethaafe ta wodhdhiya wode asay tana mokkana mela oothanabaa ta erays’ yaagis.
I know what I will do, so that when I am removed from management, they may receive me into their houses.'
5 “Hessa gisho, iya godaa acoy de7iya asaa issuwa issuwa xeegi ehidi koyro uraakko, ‘Ne bolla ta godaa acoy ay meli de7ii?’ yaagidi oychchis.
Calling each one of his lord's debtors to him, he said to the first, 'How much do you owe to my lord?'
6 “I, ‘Laatamu barmeele zayte acoy de7ees’ yaagis. “Shuumay, ‘Wule warqattiya he7e, ellesada, tammu barmeele zayte acoy de7ees gada xaafa’ yaagis.
He said, 'A hundred batos of oil.' He said to him, 'Take your bill, and sit down quickly and write fifty.'
7 “Hessafe kaallidi nam77anthuwako, ‘New aappuni de7ii?’ yaagis. “I, ‘370 kunttaale gistte acoy de7ees’ yaagis. “Shuumay, “Ne wule warqattiya he7e, ellesada, 296 kunttaale yaagada xaafa’ yaagis.
Then he said to another, 'How much do you owe?' He said, 'A hundred cors of wheat.' He said to him, 'Take your bill, and write eighty.'
8 Keethaaway ammanettiboonna shuumaa iya bilaamatethaas nashshis. Ha alamiya nayti ase oythan poo7o naytappe aadhdhida wozanaamata. (aiōn g165)
"His lord commended the dishonest manager for his shrewdness, for the people of this age are more shrewd in dealing with their own generation than the people of light. (aiōn g165)
9 “Hessa gisho, ta hinttew odays; ha alamiya miishey wuriya wode merinaa keethan mokettana mela ha miishiyara hinttew laggeta shammite. (aiōnios g166)
And I say to you, make friends for yourselves by means of unrighteous mammon, so that when it is gone they may welcome you into the everlasting dwellings. (aiōnios g166)
10 Ubbaafe guuthaban ammanettiday daroban ammanettidayssa gidees. Qassi ubbaafe guuthaban ammanettonnayssi daroban ammanettenna.
He who is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much. He who is dishonest in a very little is also dishonest in much.
11 Hiza, ha alamiya miishen hintte ammanettonna ixxiko tuma miishe hinttew ooni hadara immanee?
If therefore you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
12 Hintte hara asa miishen ammanettonna ixxiko, hintte buzo miishe hinttew ooni immanee?”
If you have not been faithful in that which is another's, who will give you that which is your own?
13 “Issi aylley nam77u godatas haarettanaw dandda7enna. Issuwa ixxiko hankkuwa dosees woykko issuwako shiiqikko hankkuwa kadhees. Hessadakka, hintte Xoossasinne miishes haarettanaw dandda7ekketa.
No servant can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. You are not able to serve God and wealth."
14 “Miishe dosiya Farisaaweti hessa si7ida wode Yesuusa qelqisidosona.
The Pharisees, who were lovers of money, also heard all these things, and they scoffed at him.
15 I, hinttee hinttena asa sinthan xilliseeta, shin Xoossay hintte wozanaa erees. Asa sinthan bonchchettidayssi Xoossaa sinthan borettidayssa.
He said to them, "You are those who justify yourselves in the sight of people, but God knows your hearts. For that which is exalted among people is an abomination in the sight of God.
16 “Muse higgeynne nabeta kiitay Yohaannisa gakkanaw hinttew odettishe gam77is. Hessafe guye, Xoossaa kawotethaa Wonggelaa odettishe gam77is. Asi ubbay yaa gelanaw dafettees.
The Law and the Prophets were until John. From that time the gospel of the Kingdom of God is preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.
17 Gidoshin, higgiyafe issi laafa pidaaley attanaappe saloynne sa7ay aadhdheyssi kawuyees.
But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one tiny stroke of a pen in the Law to become void.
18 “Ba machchiw yeddidi haraa ekkiya ubbay laammees. Ba azinaappe anjjettidaaro ekkeysika laammees” yaagis.
Everyone who divorces his wife, and marries another, commits adultery. He who marries one who is divorced from a husband commits adultery.
19 “Al77onne alleeqo afila ma77iya, sa7i injjetin gallas gallas ufayssan de7iya issi dure asi de7ees.
"Now there was a certain rich man, and he was clothed in purple and fine linen, living in luxury every day.
20 Hari qassi asatethay kumethi madunxida issi Alaazara geetettiya manqoy he dure uraa karen yegeti attidayssi de7ees.
A certain beggar, named Lazarus, was placed at his gate, full of sores,
21 Koshappe denddoyssan dure uraa gaytappe wodhdhiya tiifiya maanaw amottishe de7ees. Hari attoshin, kanati yidi iya madunthaa laaccosona.
and desiring to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man's table. Yes, even the dogs came and licked his sores.
22 “He manqoyka hayqqis; kiitanchchoti iya Abrahaame ki7uwa efidosona. Qassi dure uraykka hayqqidi moogettis.
It happened that the beggar died, and that he was carried away by the angels to Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died, and was buried.
23 Si7oolen un77ettidi de7ishe dhoqqu gidi haahon Abrahamenne iya ki7on de7iya Alaazara be7is. (Hadēs g86)
In hell, he lifted up his eyes, being in torment, and saw Abraham far off, and Lazarus at his bosom. (Hadēs g86)
24 I, ‘Aawaw Abrahaame, taw qadhettarkii; ha laco taman un77ettada de7iya gisho Alaazari ba biradhdhiya haathan yeddidi ta inxarssa laakothana mela hayyana iya yeddarkki’ yaagidi waassis.
He called out and said, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue. For I am in anguish in this flame.'
25 “Shin Abrahamey iyaakko, ‘Ta na7aw, ne sa7an de7iya wode lo77obaata ekkidayssa, qassi Alaazari iitabata ekkidayssa akeeka. Shin ha77i I hayssan ufayttees, qassi neeni waayettashe de7aasa’ yaagis.
"But Abraham said, 'Son, remember that you, in your lifetime, received your good things, and Lazarus, in like manner, bad things. But now here he is comforted and you are in anguish.
26 Ha ubbaafe aadhdhidi, ‘Haappe hintteko, hinippe haa nuukko aadhdhanaw koyeyssati pinnonna mela nuusinne hinttes giddon gita aafoy de7ees’ yaagis.
Besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, that those who want to pass from here to you are not able, and that none may cross over from there to us.'
27 “Dure uray, ‘Aawaw, yaakko Alaazara ta aawa soo kiittana mela ta nena woossays.
"He said, 'I ask you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father's house;
28 Taw ichchashu ishati de7idosona, enttika ha waaye bessaa yoonna mela enttaw bidi markkatto’ yaagis.
for I have five brothers, that he may testify to them, so they won't also come into this place of torment.'
29 “Shin Abrahamey, ‘Enttaw Museranne nabetara de7oosona; entti odiyabaa si7onna’ yaagis.
"But Abraham said to him, 'They have Moses and the Prophets. Let them listen to them.'
30 “Dure uray, ‘Aawaw Abrahaame, hessatho gidenna; issi asi hayqoppe denddidi biikko entti maarotan gelana’ yaagis.
"He said, 'No, father Abraham, but if one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.'
31 “Abrahamey, ‘Musenne nabeta si7onna ixxiko, hari attoshin hayqoppe issi asi denddi odikkoka ammanokkona’ yaagis.”
"He said to him, 'If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be persuaded if one rises from the dead.'"
