Luuqaasa 7
1 Yesuusi hessa ubbaa asaa sinthan tamaarssidi onggidaappe guye, Qifirnahoome giya biittaa bis.
After he had finished speaking in the hearing of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
2 He bessan issi mato halaqay de7ees. I daro dosiya aylley harggettidi hayqos gakkis.
A certain centurion’s servant, who was dear to him, was sick and at the point of death.
3 I Yesuusabaa si7ida wode ba aylliya pathana mela iya woosso gidi issi issi Ayhude cimata Yesuusakko kiittis.
When he heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him to come and save his servant.
4 Kiitettidayssati, Yesuusakko bidi, “Ne iyaw hayssa oothanaw bessees.
When they came to Jesus, they begged him earnestly, saying, “He is worthy for you to do this for him,
5 Ays giikko, ha uray nu asaa dosees, Ayhude Woosa Keethaka keexis” gidi minthi woossidosona
for he loves our nation, and he built our synagogue for us.”
6 Yesuusikka enttara bis. Mato halaqaa sookko matiya wode ba laggeta iyaakko kiittidi, “Godaw, ta kaarappe garssan ne gelanaw ta bessonna gisho, daaburoppa.
Jesus went with them. When he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him, “Lord, don’t trouble yourself, for I am not worthy for you to come under my roof.
7 Takka tana ne sinthe shiiqanaw bessiya asi gada qoppike. Shin ne issi qaala oda; ta aylley paxana.
Therefore I didn’t even think myself worthy to come to you; but say the word, and my servant will be healed.
8 Taw taappe bollara halaqay de7ees, taappe garssan ta kiittiya wotaaddareti de7oosona. Issuwa, ‘Ba’ giikko bees, hankkuwa, ‘Haaya’ giikko yees. Ta aylliyakko, ‘Hanno ootha’ giikko oothees” yaagis.
For I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers. I tell this one, ‘Go!’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
9 Yesuusi hessa si7ida wode malaalettis. Guye simmidi baara yaa asaakko, “Taani hinttew tuma odays; hari attoshin Isra7eelenkka hayssa mela gita ammano demmabiikke” yaagis.
When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned and said to the multitude who followed him, “I tell you, I have not found such great faith, no, not in Israel.”
10 Kiitettidayssati soo simmiya wode aylley paxin demmidosona.
Those who were sent, returning to the house, found that the servant who had been sick was well.
11 Guutha wodeppe guye Yesuusi Nayne katamaa bis. Iya tamaaretaranne hara daro asati iyara bidosona.
Soon afterwards, he went to a city called Nain. Many of his disciples, along with a great multitude, went with him.
12 I katamaa gelana haniya wode aha tookkida daro asati katamaappe keyosona. Hayqqida na7ay ba aayes issuwa, iyakka am77o gidada da7awusu. Katama asaappe daroti iira de7oosona.
Now when he came near to the gate of the city, behold, one who was dead was carried out, the only born son of his mother, and she was a widow. Many people of the city were with her.
13 Goday iyo be7ida wode qadhettidi, “Yeekkofa” yaagis.
When the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her and said to her, “Don’t cry.”
14 Shiiqidi halaa bochchin tookkida asati eqqidosona. Yesuusi, “La, yalagaw dendda” yaagis.
He came near and touched the coffin, and the bearers stood still. He said, “Young man, I tell you, arise!”
15 Hayqqidayssi denddi uttidi oda oykkis. Yesuusi na7aa ekkidi aayes immis.
He who was dead sat up and began to speak. Then he gave him to his mother.
16 Asa ubbay yashettidi, “Gita nabey nu giddon denddis; Xoossay ba asaa be7is” yaagidi Xoossaa galatidosona.
Fear took hold of all, and they glorified God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen amongst us!” and, “God has visited his people!”
17 Iya sunthay Yihudaninne he heeran de7iya biitta ubban si7ettis.
This report went out concerning him in the whole of Judea and in all the surrounding region.
18 Xammaqiya Yohaannisa tamaareti hessa ubbaa Yohaannisas odidosona. I entta giddofe nam77ata xeegidi,
The disciples of John told him about all these things.
19 “Yaana geetettiday neneyye? Woykko haraa naaginoo?” yaagidi oychchite gidi Godaakko kiittis.
John, calling to himself two of his disciples, sent them to Jesus, saying, “Are you the one who is coming, or should we look for another?”
20 Asati Yesuusakko bidi, Xammaqiya Yohaannisi, “Yaana geetettiday neneyye? Woykko haraa naaginoo?” giite gidi nuna neekko kiittis yaagidosona.
When the men had come to him, they said, “John the Baptiser has sent us to you, saying, ‘Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?’”
21 He saatenkka Yesuusi daro asaa harggiyafe pathis. Tuna ayyaanata kessis, qooqida ayfiyakka xeelisis.
In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and to many who were blind he gave sight.
22 Yohaannisa matappe kiitettidi yidayssatakko, “Bidi hintte be7idayssanne si7idayssa Yohaannisas odite. Ayfe qooqeti xeellosona, gunddati birshshettidi hamuttoosona, baro hargganchchoti geeyosona, tulleti si7oosona, hayqqidayssati hayqoppe denddoosona, manqotas Wonggelay sabbakettees.
Jesus answered them, “Go and tell John the things which you have seen and heard: that the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.
23 Tanan dhubettonna oonikka anjjettidayssa.”
Blessed is he who finds no occasion for stumbling in me.”
24 Yohaannisi kiittidayssati bidaappe guye Yesuusi asaas Yohaannisabaa yaagidi odis: “Biitta bazzo hintte ay be7anaw keyidetii? Carkkoy qaathiya maata be7anaaseye?
When John’s messengers had departed, he began to tell the multitudes about John, “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
25 Yaatin, ay be7anaw keyidetii? Kitte ma7o ma77ida asaa be7anaaseyye? Kitte ma7o ma77idayssatinne sa7i injjetida asay kawo keethan de7oosona.
But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft clothing? Behold, those who are gorgeously dressed and live delicately are in kings’ courts.
26 Yaatin, ay be7anaw keyidetii? Nabiya be7anaaseye? Ee, ta yaagays: hintte be7anaw keyiday nabeppe aadhdheyssa.
But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.
27 ‘Ne ogiya ne sinthan giigisiya ta kiitanchchuwa neeppe sinthe ta kiittana’ geetettidi xaafettiday iyassa.
This is he of whom it is written, ‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’
28 Ta hinttew odays; maccasappe yelettidayssata giddofe Yohaannisappe aadhdhey baawa. Xoossaa kawotethan ubbaafe guuxeyssi, I ubbaafe gita gidana” yaagis.
“For I tell you, amongst those who are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptiser; yet he who is least in God’s Kingdom is greater than he.”
29 Hari attoshin, Yesuusa qaala si7ida qaraxa qanxiseyssati ubbay Yohaannisa kushen xammaqettidi Xoossay xillo gideyssa qonccisidosona.
When all the people and the tax collectors heard this, they declared God to be just, having been baptised with John’s baptism.
30 Shin Farisaawetinne higge asttamaareti Yohaannisa kushen xammaqettonna ixxidi Xoossaa zoriya leqisidosona.
But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the counsel of God, not being baptised by him themselves.
31 Yesuusi kaallidi hayssada yaagis: “Hiza, ha wodiya yeletethaa aybira daaniso? Enttika oona daanoona?
“To what then should I compare the people of this generation? What are they like?
32 Giya giddon uttidi woli xeegidi, ‘Nu hinttew suusul77e punnin, hintte yexxeketa. Nu sabbidi zeleelin, hintte yeekkeketa’ yaagiya nayta daanosona.
They are like children who sit in the marketplace and call to one another, saying, ‘We piped to you, and you didn’t dance. We mourned, and you didn’t weep.’
33 Xammaqiya Yohaannisi moonnanne uyonna yin, ‘Iita ayyaanara de7ees gideta.’
For John the Baptiser came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon.’
34 Asa Na7ay mishenne uyishe yin, ‘Yarambbanne ushanchcho, qaraxa qanxiseyssatanne nagaranchchota dabbo’ gideta.
The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Behold, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’
35 Hiza, cinccatethaa tumatethay iya nayta ubbaa matan erettis” yaagis.
Wisdom is justified by all her children.”
36 Issi Farisaawey Yesuusa kathi muzanaw ba soo xeegis. I Farisaawiya soo bidi gayta bolla uttis.
One of the Pharisees invited him to eat with him. He entered into the Pharisee’s house and sat at the table.
37 He kataman issi nagaranchcho maccasi de7iyara Yesuusi Farisaawiya son gibira bolla de7eyssa si7ida wode daro al77o philqqaaxe shitto ekkada yasu.
Behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that he was reclining in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster jar of ointment.
38 Yesuusas guye baggara, iya tohuwa matan eqqada yeekkashe iya tohuwa ba afuthaara laakethawsu. Ba binaanara iya tohuwa quchchashenne yeerashe shitto tiyasu.
Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
39 Gibira giigisida Farisaawey hessa be7ida wode ba wozanan, “Hayssi nabe gidiyakko ha maccasiya iya bochchiyara ooneekko qassi iya nagaranchcho gideyssakka I eranashin” yaagis.
Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner.”
40 Yesuusi, “Simoona, ta new odiyabay de7ees” yaagis. I, “Asttamaariyaw, taw oda” yaagis.
Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” He said, “Teacher, say on.”
41 Yesuusi iyaakko, “Nam77u asati issi uraappe miishe tal77idosona. Issoy ichchashu xeetu bira hankkoy qassi ishatamu bira tal77idosona.
“A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
42 Nam77ayka tal77iya cigganaw xoonettin, nam77ataskka tal77iya maaris. Hiza, ha nam77atappe he uraa daro dosanay new awussa daanii” yaagis.
When they couldn’t pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most?”
43 Simooni, “Daro acoy maarettida uray daro dosana daanees” yaagis. Yesuusi, “Ne tuma pirddadasa” yaagis.
Simon answered, “He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most.” He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”
44 Hessafe guye, Yesuusi maccaseekko simmi xeellidi, Simoonakko, “Hanno maccasiw be7ay? Taani ne soo gelin hari attin ne taw toho haathe immabaakka, shin iya ta tohuwa ba afuthan laakothada ba binaanan quchchasu.
Turning to the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, and you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head.
45 Neeni tana yeera ekkabaakka, shin iya ta ne soo geloodeppe doomada ta tohuwa yeero aggabukku.
You gave me no kiss, but she, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.
46 Neeni ta huu7iyan zayte tiyabaka, shin iya ta tohuwa shitto tiyawusu.
You didn’t anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.
47 Iya tana daro dosida gisho I daro nagaray atto geetettis. Iya guutha nagaray atto geetettiday guuthara dosees.”
Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But one to whom little is forgiven, loves little.”
48 Yesuusi maccaseekko, “Ne nagaray atto geetettis” yaagis.
He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
49 Iyara issife gaytan uttidi miya imathati, “Nagara atto yaagey, I hayssi oonee?” yaagidi bantta wozanan qoppidosona.
Those who sat at the table with him began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”
50 Yesuusi maccaseekko, “Ne ammanoy nena ashshis; saro ba” yaagis.
He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”
