< Luk 10 >
1 Mgbe nke a gasịrị, Onyenwe anyị họpụtara iri mmadụ asaa na abụọ ndị ọzọ, zipụ ha mmadụ abụọ abụọ ka ha buru ya ụzọ gaa nʼobodo niile nakwa ebe niile ọ na-achọ ịga.
And after these things, Jesus separated from among his disciples seventy other persons, and sent them, two and two, before his face, to every place and city whither he was to go.
2 Ọ sịrị ha, “Owuwe ihe ubi dị ukwuu ma ndị ọrụ dị naanị ole na ole. Ya mere, rịọọnụ Onyenwe owuwe ihe ubi ka o zite ndị ọrụ nʼowuwe ihe ubi ya.
And he said to them: The harvest is great, and the laborers few: pray ye, therefore, the lord of the harvest that he would send laborers into his harvest.
3 Gaanụ! Ma lee, ana m ezipu unu dị ka ụmụ atụrụ nʼetiti agụ.
Go ye: lo, I send you forth, as sheep among wolves.
4 Unu ewerekwala ego maọbụ akpa maọbụ akpụkpọụkwụ. Unu ekelekwala onye ọbụla nʼụzọ.
Take to you no purses, nor wallets, nor shoes; and salute no man by the way.
5 “Mgbe unu banyere nʼụlọ ọbụla, burunu ụzọ sị, ‘Udo dịrị nʼụlọ a.’
And into whatever house ye enter, first say: Peace be to this house.
6 Ọ bụrụ na mmadụ udo bi nʼụlọ ahụ, udo unu ga-adịnyekwara ya. Ọ bụrụkwanụ na onye bi nʼụlọ ahụ abụghị onye udo, udo unu ji bịa ga-alọghachitekwara unu.
And if the son of peace is there, your salutation will rest upon it; but if not, your salutation will return to you.
7 Nọgidenụ nʼebe ahụ, na-erinụ ma na-aṅụkwanụ ihe ọbụla ha nyere unu, nʼihi na onye ọrụ kwesiri ịnata ụgwọ ọrụ ya. Unu esitela nʼotu ụlọ gaa nʼụlọ ọzọ.
And remain in that house, eating and drinking of what it affords; for the laborer is worthy of his hire. And pass not from house to house.
8 “Ọ bụrụ na ndị bi nʼobodo unu batara anabata unu, rienụ ihe ọbụla ha nyere unu.
And into whatever city ye enter, and they receive you; eat that which set before you.
9 Gwọọnụ ndị ọrịa nọ nʼebe ahụ, gwakwanụ ha sị, ‘Alaeze Chineke adịla unu nso.’
And heal them that are sick in it; and say to them: The kingdom of God hath come near you.
10 Ma mgbe unu banyere nʼobodo ọbụla ha jụ ịnabata unu, pụọnụ gaa nʼokporoụzọ ya kwuo sị,
And into whatever city ye enter, and they receive you not; go out into the street, and say:
11 ‘Ọ bụladị aja si nʼobodo a nke nyapagidere nʼụkwụ anyị, anyị na-ehichapụ ya ka ọ bụrụ ihe ịdọ aka ntị nye gị. Otu ọ dị, matakwanụ nke a, na alaeze Chineke dị nso.’
Even the dust of your city which adhereth to our feet, we shake off against you: but this know ye, that the kingdom of God hath come near to you.
12 Ana m agwa unu na nʼụbọchị ahụ, ga-akara Sọdọm mma karịa obodo ahụ.
I say to you, that for Sodom there will be comfort in that day, rather than for that city.
13 “Ahụhụ ga-adịrị gị Korazin. Ahụhụ ga-adịrị gị Betsaida. Nʼihi na ọ bụrụ na ọrụ ebube a rụrụ nʼime unu ka a rụrụ na Taịa na Saịdọn ha gaara echegharị ogologo oge, nọdụ nʼakwa mkpe na ntụ.
Woe to thee, Chorazin; woe to thee, Bethsaida; for if in Tyre and Sidon there had been the mighty deeds, that were in you, they would long ago have repented in sackcloth and ashes.
14 Ọ ga-akara Taịa na Saịdọn mma nʼụbọchị ikpe karịa unu.
But for Tyre and Sidon there will be comfort in the day of judgment, rather than for you.
15 Ma gị Kapanọm! Ị na-eche na a ga-ebuli gị elu ruo eluigwe? Mba! Ị ga-arịda nʼala mmụọ! (Hadēs )
And thou Capernaum, that art lifted up to heaven, shalt be brought down to hell. (Hadēs )
16 “Onye ọbụla gere unu ntị, ọ bụ mụ ka o gere ntị. Onye ọbụla jụrụ ịnabata unu, ọ bụ mụ ka ọ jụrụ ịnabata. Onye ọbụla jụrụ ịnabata m jụrụ ịnabata onye zitere m.”
He that heareth you, heareth me; and he that despiseth you, despiseth me; and he that despiseth me, despiseth him that sent me.
17 Iri mmadụ asaa na abụọ ahụ jiri ọṅụ lọta sị, “Onyenwe anyị, nʼaha gị, ọ bụladị ndị mmụọ ọjọọ rubeere anyị isi.”
And the seventy whom he sent forth, returned with great joy, and say to him: Our Lord, even the demons were subject to us, in thy name.
18 Ọ sịrị ha, “Ahụrụ m ekwensu ka o si nʼeluigwe daa dị ka amụma.
And he said to them: I saw Satan fall, like the lightning from heaven.
19 Lee! Enyela m unu ikike ịzọkwasị agwọ na akpị ụkwụ, na imegide ike niile nke onye iro; ọ dịghị ihe ọbụla ga-emerụ unu ahụ.
Behold, I give you authority to tread on serpents, and scorpions, and on all the power of the adversary: and nothing shall harm you.
20 Otu ọ dị, unu aṅụrịla ọṅụ nʼihi na mmụọ ọjọọ rubere unu isi, kama ṅụrịanụ ọṅụ nʼihi na e deela aha unu nʼeluigwe.”
Yet rejoice not in this, that the demons are subject to you; but rejoice, that your names are written in heaven.
21 Nʼotu oge ahụ, o jupụtara nʼọṅụ nke Mmụọ Nsọ kwuo sị, “Nna, Onyenwe eluigwe na ụwa, ana m ekele gị nʼihi na ị zonarịrị ihe ndị a nʼebe ndị ọkachamara na ndị nwere amamihe nọ, ma ị kpughere ihe ndị a niile nye ụmụntakịrị. E, Nna, otu a ka o si masị uche gị ime ya.
In that hour Jesus exulted in the Holy Spirit, and said: I thank thee, my Father, thou Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and intelligent, and hast revealed them to babes: yes, my Father, for such was thy good pleasure.
22 “Nna m enyefeela m ihe niile nʼaka. Ọ dịghị onye maara onye Ọkpara ahụ bụ, karịa Nna ahụ. Ọ dịkwaghị onye maara Nna ahụ karịa Ọkpara na ndị ahụ Ọkpara chọrọ igosi onye Nna ya bụ.”
And he turned himself to his disciples, and said to them: Every thing is committed to me by my Father: and no one knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; or who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son is pleased to reveal him.
23 Mgbe ahụ ọ tụgharịrị gwa ndị na-eso ụzọ ya na nzuzo sị, “Ngọzị na-adịrị anya nke na-ahụ ihe unu na-ahụ ugbu a.
And he turned to his disciples, privately, and said: Blessed are the eyes that see, what ye see.
24 Ana m asị unu, na ọtụtụ ndị amụma na ndị eze ka ọ gụrụ agụụ ịhụ ihe unu na-ahụ ma ha ahụghị ya, na ịnụ ihe unu na-anụ, ma ha anụghị ya.”
For I say to you, that many prophets and kings desired to see what ye see, and did not see it; and to hear what ye hear, and did not hear it.
25 Otu ụbọchị, otu onye ozizi iwu biliri ịnwale ya. Ọ jụrụ ya, “Onye ozizi, gịnị ka m kwesiri ime ka m keta ndụ ebighị ebi?” (aiōnios )
And behold, a Scribe stood up to try him, and said: Teacher, what must I do, to inherit eternal life? (aiōnios )
26 Ọ sịrị ya, “Gịnị ka e dere nʼiwu? Gịnị ka ị gụtara nʼime ya?”
And Jesus said to him: How is it written in the law? How readest thou?
27 Ọ zara sị, “‘Ị ga-eji obi gị niile, na mkpụrụobi gị niile, na ike gị niile, na uche gị niile, hụ Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị nʼanya’; ma ‘hụkwa onye agbataobi gị nʼanya dị ka onwe gị.’”
He answered and said to him: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God, with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor, as thyself
28 Ọ sịrị ya, “Ị zara nke ọma. Gaa mee nke a ị ga-adị ndụ.”
Jesus said to him: Thou hast said correctly; do thus, and thou wilt live.
29 Ma iji gosi na ya bụ onye na-eme ihe ziri ezi, ọ sịrị Jisọs, “Onye kwanụ bụ onye agbataobi m?”
And he, being disposed to justify himself, said: And who is my neighbor?
30 Jisọs sịrị ya, “Otu nwoke sitere Jerusalem na-aga Jeriko, ọ dabara nʼaka ndị ohi, ndị gbara ya ọtọ, tiekwa ya ihe, hapụ ya nʼọnọdụ ọdịndụ-ọnwụkamma laa.
Jesus said to him: A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and robbers fell upon him, and plundered him, and smote him, and left him with little life in him, and went their way.
31 Ma dị ka ihe si eme, otu onye nchụaja sitere ụzọ ahụ na-agafe. Mgbe ọ hụrụ ya, o sitere nʼakụkụ ụzọ nke ọzọ gafee.
And a certain priest went down by that way; and he saw him, and passed on.
32 Otu a kwa, otu onye Livayị bịarutekwara nʼebe ahụ, hụ ya, ma o sitere nʼakụkụ ụzọ nke ọzọ gafeekwa.
So also a Levite came, approached the spot, and saw him, and passed on.
33 Ma otu onye Sameria na-aga njem, mgbe ọ bịarutere nso nʼebe ahụ; hụ ya, o nwere ọmịiko nʼahụ ya.
But a Samaritan, as he travelled, came where he was, and saw him, and took pity on him,
34 Ọ gara nso nʼebe ọ nọ, jiri mmanya na mmanụ wụsa nʼọnya ya, were akwa kechie ya. Ọ tụkwasịrị ya nʼelu ịnyịnya ibu ya, buba ya nʼụlọ ndị ije ebe o lekọtara ya anya nke ọma.
and went to him, and bound up his wounds, and poured wine and oil on them, and placed him upon his ass, and brought him to the inn, and took care of him.
35 Nʼechi ya, o wepụtara mkpụrụ ego ọlaọcha abụọ nye onye na-elekọta ụlọ ndị ije ahụ sị ya, ‘Lezie ya anya nke ọma. M lọta aga m akwụghachi gị ihe ọbụla ọzọ i mefuru.’
And on the morning of the next day, he took out two denarii and gave to the host, and said: Take good care of him; and if thou expendest any more, when I return, I will repay thee.
36 “Onye nʼime mmadụ atọ ndị a ka i chere bụ onye gosiri onwe ya dị ka onye agbataobi nye nwoke ahụ nke dabara nʼaka ndị ohi?”
Which therefore of these three, appears to thee, to have been neighbor to him that fell into the hands of marauders?
37 Ọ sịrị, “Ọ bụ onye ahụ meere ya ebere.” Jisọs sịrị ya, “Laa, gaa mee otu ahụ.”
And he said: He that had pity on him. Jesus said to him: Go, and do thou also the like.
38 Mgbe ha na-aga nʼụzọ, ọ banyere nʼotu obodo nta ebe nwanyị a na-akpọ Mata nabatara ya nʼụlọ ya.
And it occurred, as they travelled by the way, that he entered a certain village, and a woman whose name was Martha, received him at her house.
39 O nwere nwanne nwanyị a na-akpọ Meri nke nọdụrụ ala nʼụkwụ Onyenwe anyị na-ege ntị nʼihe ọ na-ekwu.
And she had a sister whose name, was Mary: and she came and seated herself at the feet of our Lord, and listened to his discourses.
40 Ma uche Mata gbasasịrị agbasa ebe ọ na-akwado maka ile ọbịa. Ọ bịakwutere ya sị ya, “Onyenwe anyị, ọ bụ na o metụghị gị nʼobi na nwanne m nwanyị hapụrụ naanị m ije ozi niile? Gwa ya ka ọ bịa nyere m aka.”
But Martha was occupied with much service; and she came, and said to him: My Lord, hast thou no concern, that my sister hath left me to serve alone? Bid her assist me.
41 Ma Onyenwe anyị zara ya sị, “Mata, Mata, ị na-echegbu onwe gị ma na-adọgbukwa onwe gị banyere ọtụtụ ihe,
Jesus answered, and said to her: Martha, Martha, thou art anxious and troubled about many things:
42 maọbụ naanị otu ihe dị mkpa, Meri ahọrọla nke ka mma, nke a na-agaghị anapụkwa ya.”
yet but one thing is necessary; and Mary hath chosen for herself the good part, which shall not be taken from her.
