< Lucas 7 >

1 Kalpasan nga nalpas ni Hesus ti amin nga ibagbagana nga dingdinggen dagiti tattao, simrek isuna idiay Capernaum.
After Jesus finished saying this to the people, he went [with his disciples] to Capernaum [town].
2 Adda adipen ti maysa nga senturion, nga napateg kenkuana, agsaksakit ken dandanin matay.
There was a Roman army officer there who had a slave whom he thought highly of. This slave was so sick that he was about to die.
3 Ngem idi nangngeganna ti maipapan ken ni Hesus, nangibaon ti senturion kadagiti panglakayen dagiti Judio tapno kiddawenda nga umay ket isalakanna ti adipenna manipud iti pannakatay.
When the officer heard about Jesus, he [summoned] some Jewish elders. He told them to go to Jesus and ask him to come and heal his slave.
4 Idi nakaasidegdan ken ni Hesus, nagpakpakaasida kenkuana iti kasta unay a kunada, “Maikari isuna nga aramidem daytoy para kenkuana,
When they came to where Jesus was, they earnestly asked Jesus [to return with them]. They said, “This officer deserves that you [(sg)] do this [for him],
5 agsipud ta ipatpategna unay daytoy nga nasiontayo ken nangipatakder ti sinagoga para kadatayo.”
because he loves us [Jewish] people, and he [paid the money to] build a synagogue for us.”
6 Intultuloy ni Hesus iti pannagnana ket kimmuyog kadakuada. Ngem idi saanen nga adayo isuna manipud iti balay, nangibaon ti senturion kadagiti gagayyemna nga mangibaga kenkuana, “Apo saanmon nga parigaten ta bagim, gapu ta saanak nga maikari nga masapul a sumrekka iti sirok iti bubungak.
So Jesus went with them. When he was near the [officer’s] house, the officer [decided that it was not necessary for Jesus to come to his house. So he] summoned some friends. He [told them to] go to Jesus and tell him this: “Lord/Sir, do not bother to come. [Because I am a non-Jew], I am not worthy for you [(sg)], [a Jew], to come into my house [MTY] [and associate with me].
7 Gapu iti daytoy, saanko pay nga inbilang toy bagik nga mabalin nga maikari nga umasideg kenka, ngem iyebkas mo laeng ti sao ket maimbagan ti adipenko.
I did not feel worthy to come to you, [either]. But [please] command [that] my servant [be healed], and he will become well!
8 Ta uray siak met ket taoak nga naikabil iti babaen ti turay ken addaanak met kadagiti soldado nga adda iti sirukko. Ibagak iti maysa, 'Mapanka,' ket mapan isuna, ken iti maysa pay, 'Umayka,' ket umay isuna, ken iti adipenko, 'Aramidem daytoy', ket aramidenna.”
[I believe this] because, as for me, there are people who have authority over me [and I obey them]. I also have soldiers under my [authority]. When I say to one of them, ‘Go!’ he goes. When I say to another ‘Come!’ he comes. When I say to my slave, ‘Do this!’ he does it. [And I believe that you speak with a similar kind of authority].”
9 Idi nangngegan ni Hesus daytoy, nasdaaw unay kenkuana, ket simmango ngarud kadagiti tattao nga sumursurot kenkuana ket kinunana, “Ibagak kadakayo, awan pay nasarakak uray ditoy Israel nga siasinoman nga addaan ti dakkel nga pammati.”
When [the officer’s friends arrived and] told that to Jesus, he marveled at what [the officer had said]. Then he turned and said to the crowd that was going with him, “I tell you, I have never before found anyone who trusted [in me like this non-Jewish man does]. No one from Israel, [where I would expect people to believe in me], has trusted in me like he has!”
10 Ket dagiti naibaon, nagsublida iti balay ket nasarakanda nga nasalun-aten ti adipen.
When those men returned to the officer’s house, they found that the slave was well.
11 Iti saan unay a nabayag kalpasan dayta, napasamak nga agdaldalyasat ni Hesus iti siudad nga maaw-awagan ti Nain. Dagiti adalanna ket kimmuyog kenkuana ken simmurot met ti nakaad-adu nga tattao.
Soon after that, Jesus went to a town called Nain. His disciples and a large crowd [of other people] went with him.
12 Idi umas-asidegen iti ruangan ti siudad, pagammoan, adda natay nga tao nga bagbagkatenda nga paruar, nga maymaysa nga anak nga lalaki ti inana.
As they approached the town gate, the corpse of a young man who had just died was being carried out [on a stretcher] {[people] were carrying out [on a stretcher] the corpse of a young man who had just died}. His mother was a widow, and he was her only son. A large group of people from the town were accompanying them.
13 Isu ket balo a babai, ken kaduana iti adu met bassit nga tattao iti dayta nga siyudad. Idi makitana isuna, iti Apo ket kasta unay ti pannakatignay ti asina para kenkuana ket kinunana kenkuana, “Saanka nga agsangit”.
When the Lord saw her, he pitied her. He said to her, “Do not cry!”
14 Ket nagpasango ni Hesus ket sinagidna iti pagibagbagkatan ti bangkay, ket nagtalinaed met nga sitatakder dagiti agbagbagkat. Kinunana, “Agtutubo, ibagak kenka, bumangonka”.
Then, [ignoring the Jewish laws about not coming near a corpse], he came close and touched the stretcher [on which the body was lying]. So the men carrying it stood still. He said, “Young man, I say to you, get up!”
15 Nagtugaw ti natay a lalaki nagtugaw ken nangrugi nga nagsao. Ket inyawat ni Hesus iti inana.
The man sat up and began to talk! Jesus returned him to his mother [to care for her].
16 Ket inabak ida amin iti buteng. Indaydayawda ngarud iti Dios, ibagbagada, “Natan-ok nga propeta iti timmaud kadatayo” ken “Iti Dios kimmita kadagiti tattaona.”
Then everyone [there] was amazed/awestruck. They praised God, saying, “A great prophet has come among us!” They also said, “God has come to help his people!”
17 Daytoy nga damag maipanggep ken ni Hesus ket nagwaras iti intero nga Judea ken kadagiti amin nga kabangibang nga rehion.
[Then they] reported what Jesus [had done] throughout all of Judea [district] and other nearby areas.
18 Dagiti adalan ni Juan imbagada kenkuana amin dagitoy nga banbanag.
The disciples of John [the Baptizer went to the prison where John was and] told him about those things.
19 Inayaban ngarud ni Juan ti dua kadagiti adalanna ket imbaonna ida iti Apo nga mangibaga, “Sika kadi diay Umayto, wenno adda pay kadi sabali a tao nga inkami biroken?”
So [one day] John summoned two [of his disciples] and [told them] to go to the Lord and ask him: “Are you [the Messiah who the prophets prophesied would come], or is it someone else that we should expect [to come]?”
20 Idi nakaasidegdan ken ni Hesus, kinuna dagiti lallaki, “Ni Juan nga Mammunniag imbaonna kami nga mangibaga kenka “Sika kadi diay Umayto, wenno adda pay kadi sabali nga tao nga inkami biroken?””
When those two men came to Jesus, they said, “John the Baptizer sent us to ask you [(sg)] this: Are you [the Messiah that] we are expecting [God] to send, or shall we [(exc)] expect someone else?”
21 Iti dayta nga oras, pinaimbagna iti adu nga tattao manipud saksakit ken an-anayenda ken manipud kadagiti dakes nga espiritu, ken pinatganna nga dagiti bulsek nga tatto ket makakita.
At that very time Jesus was healing many people of their diseases and [other] sicknesses, he was [casting out] evil spirits, and he was causing many blind people to be able to see.
22 Simmungbat ni Hesus ket kinunana kadakuada, “Inton pumanaw kayo, ipakaammoyo ken ni Juan no ania dagiti nakita ken nangngeganyo. Makakitan dagiti bulsek nga tattao, makapagnan dagiti pilay nga tattao, malinlinisanen dagiti addaan iti ketong, makangngegen dagiti tuleng nga tattao, mapagpagungaren dagiti natay nga tattao, ken makaskasabaanen iti naimbag a damag dagiti agkasapulan.
So he answered those two men, “Go back and report to John what you have seen [me doing] and what you have heard [me telling people. I am enabling] blind people to see. [I am enabling] lame people to walk. [I am] healing people who have leprosy. [I am enabling] deaf people to hear. [I am causing] dead people to become alive again, [and I am] telling [God’s] good message to poor people.
23 Iti tao nga saan nga agsardeng nga mamati kaniak gapu kadagiti aramidko ket nabendisionan.”
[Also tell John that God] is pleased with those who do not stop believing in me [because what I do is not what they expect the Messiah to do].”
24 Idi nakapanawen dagiti babaonen ni Juan, inrugi ni Hesus nga inbaga kadagiti tattao iti maipanggep ken ni Juan, “Ania ti napanyo kinita idiay let-ang? Runo kadi nga gungungunen ti angin?
When the men whom John had sent left, Jesus began to talk to the crowd of people about John. He said to them, “[Think about] what sort of person you went to see in the desolate area [when you went there to see John] [RHQ]. [You did not go there to listen to a man who constantly changed the nature of his message] [MET], [like] a reed that is blown back and forth by the wind [RHQ].
25 Ngem ania ti napanyo kinita? Maysa kadi nga tao nga nagkawes iti nalukneng a pagan-anay? Kitaenyo, dagiti tattao nga nakakawes iti napipintas nga pagan-anay ken agbibiag nga aglaplapusanan, agnanaedda kadagiti palasio ti ar- ari.
Then what kind of man did you go there to see [RHQ]? Was he [RHQ] a man who wore expensive clothes? No! [You know very well that] people who wear beautiful clothes and live in luxury are in kings’ palaces, [not in the desolate areas]!
26 Ngem ania ti napanyo kinita? Maysa kadi nga propeta? Wen, ibagak kadakayo, nangnangruna pay ngem maysa nga propeta.
Then what [kind of person] did you go to see? [Did you] [RHQ] [go there to see John because he was] a prophet? Yes! But I will tell you that [John is] more [important] than an [ordinary] prophet.
27 Isuna daytoy pakaiturungan iti naisurat, 'Kitaenyo, ibaonko iti mensaherok sakbay iti rupam, nga mangisagana iti dalanmo sakbay kenka.'
He is the one about whom [these words] that God said to the Messiah have been written {[the prophet Malachi] wrote [these words]} [in the Scriptures]: ‘Listen! I am going to send my messenger ahead of you [(sg)] [SYN]. He will prepare [people] for your coming.’
28 Ibagak kadakayo, nga kadagiti inyanak dagiti babbai, awan iti natantan-ok pay ngem ni Juan, ngem iti kababaan nga tao iti pagarian ti Dios ket natantan-ok pay ngem isuna.”
I tell you that from among all the people who have ever lived, [God considers that] no one is greater than John. However, [God considers] everyone who has let God rule their [lives] [MET] to be greater than [John], [even if they are] insignificant [people].”
29 Idi nangngegan dagiti tattao daytoy, pakairamanan dagiti agsingsingir iti buis, impaduyakyakda nga nalinteg iti Dios. Karaman isuda kadagiti nabautisaran iti bautisar ni Juan.
When they heard [what Jesus said] (OR, [what John preached]), all the people, including tax collectors, [whom many people despised], agreed that God’s way was right. By being baptized by John {By [letting] John baptize them}, [they had agreed that what God required people to do in order to be saved was right].
30 Ngem dagiti Pariseo ken nalalaing iti linteg dagiti Judio nga saan a nagpabautisar kenkuana, nilaksidda iti kinasirib ti Dios a para kadakuada.
But the Pharisees and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws were not baptized by John {did not [let] John baptize them} because they rejected what God wanted them to do.
31 “Ania ngarud iti mabalin ko nga pangiyaspingan kadagiti tattao tatta nga kapututan? Ania kadi iti pakaiyaspinganda?
[Then Jesus also said], “[Many of] you people have heard what [John and I] have taught. (I will illustrate what you are like./Do you know what [many of] you people who have heard what [John and I] have taught are like?) [RHQ]
32 Kasla da la ubbing nga agga-ayam idiay pagtagilakuan nga agtutugaw ken ay-ayabanda iti tunggal maysa nga kunada, 'Pinatukarmi ti plauta para kadakayo, ket dikay met nagsala. Nagladingit kami, ket dikay met nagsangit.'
You are like children who are [playing games] in an open area. [Some of them] are calling to [the others], saying, ‘We [(exc)] played happy music for you on the flute, but you did not dance! Then we sang sad funeral songs for you, but you did not cry!’
33 Agsipud ta immay ni Juan nga Mammunniag a saan nga mangmangan ti tinapay ken saan nga nagin-inom iti arak, ket ibagbagayo, 'Adda demonyona.'
[Similarly, you people are dissatisfied with both John the Baptizer and me]! When John came and [preached to you], he did not eat [ordinary] food [SYN] or drink wine, [like most people do]. But you [rejected him], saying, ‘A demon is controlling him!’
34 Immay ti Anak ti Tao ket nangan ken naginom ket kunayo, 'Kitaenyo, narawet daytoy nga tao ken mammartek, gayyem dagiti agsingsingir ti buis ken dagiti managbasol.'
In [contrast], [I], the one who came from heaven, eat [the same food] and drink [wine as others do]. But you [reject me], saying, ‘Look! [This man] eats too much food and drinks too much wine, and he associates with tax collectors and [other] sinners!’
35 Ngem iti sirib ket maipakita a nalinteg babaen kadagiti amin nga annakna.”
But those who are [truly God’s] children [PRS] realize that [what John and I do is truly] wise.”
36 Itatta, adda maysa nga Pariseo nga mangkidkiddaw ken Hesus nga makipangan kenkuana. Isu nga kalpasan a nakastreken ni Hesus iti balay ti Pariseo, insanggirna idiay ayan iti lamisaan tapno mangan.
[One day] one of the Pharisees [named Simon] invited Jesus to eat a meal with him. So Jesus went to the man’s house and reclined [to eat].
37 Pagammoan, adda maysa nga babai iti dayta nga siudad, nga isuna ket managbasol. Naammoanna nga adda ni Hesus nga agsangsanggir idiay balay ti Pariseo, ket napan isuna ken nangitugot iti bangbanglo nga naikabil iti alabastro nga fraskita.
There was a woman in that city [who many people knew had been] a prostitute [EUP]. She heard that Jesus was eating in the Pharisee’s house. So she went there, taking a stone jar that contained perfume.
38 Nagtakder iti likudan ni Hesus nga asideg iti sakaananna ken nagsangit. Ket inrugina nga binasa iti luana dagiti saka ni Hesus, ket pinunasanna ida iti buokna, inagepna dagiti sakana ken binukbukanna ida ti bangbanglo.
[As the people there were reclining to eat], the woman stood behind [Jesus, at his] feet. As she was crying [because she was sorry for her sins, her tears fell on Jesus’ feet]. Then she wiped his feet with her hair, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the perfume.
39 Idi nakita daytoy iti Pariseo nga nangawis ken ni Hesus, pinanunotna iti bagina nga kunana, “No daytoy nga tao ket propeta, ammona koma no siasino ken no ania nga klase nga babai iti mangsagsagid kenkuana, nga isu ket managbasol.”
When the Pharisee who had invited [Jesus] saw that, he thought, “[Prophets know about other people’s lives], [so] if Jesus were a prophet, he would have known who this woman is who is touching him, and what kind of a person she is. He would have known that she is a prostitute! [EUP]”
40 Simmungbat ni Hesus ket kinunana kenkuana, '''Simon, adda iti banag nga ibagak kenka.” Kinunana, “Ibagam, Maestro!”
Jesus said to him, “Simon, there is something I want to tell you [(sg)].” He replied, “Teacher, what is it?”
41 Kinuna ni Hesus, “Adda iti dua nga nakautang iti maysa nga agpapautang. Diay maysa ket nakautang iti limagasut nga dinario, diay met maysa ket limapulo nga dinario.
Jesus replied, “Two people owed some money to a man who [earned money by] lending [it to others]. One owed him 500 silver coins, and the other owed him 50 silver coins.
42 Gapu ta awan kuartada nga pagbayad, pinakawanna ida nga dua. Ngarud, siasino ti kadakuada iti ad-adda nga mangayat kenkuana?
Neither of them was able to pay back [what he owed], so the man [very kindly] said that they did not have to pay back anything. So, which of those two men will love that man more?”
43 Simmungbat ni Simon kenkuana ket kinunana, “Panagkunak ket diay ad-adu iti napakawan nga utangna.” Kinuna ni Hesus kenkuana, “Usto dayta a panangikeddengmo.”
Simon replied, “I think that the one who owed the most money and did not have to pay it back [will love him more].” Jesus said to him, “That is correct.”
44 Sinango ni Hesus ti babai ket kinuna ken Simon, “Makitam daytoy nga babai. Simrekak iti balay mo. Awan danum nga intedmo kaniak para kadagiti sakak, ngem isuna, babaen iti luana, binasana dagiti sakak ken pinunasanna ida iti buokna.
Then he turned toward the woman, and said to Simon, “(Think about [what] this woman [has done]!/Do you [(sg)] see [what] this woman [has done]?) [RHQ] When I entered your house, you [did not follow our custom of welcoming guests by] giving me any water [to wash] my feet, but this woman has wet my feet with her tears and then wiped them with her hair!
45 Dinak impaayan iti agep, ngem isuna, manipud simmangpetak, saan nga nagsardeng nga nangag- agep kadagiti sakak.
You did not [follow our custom of greeting by] kissing me, but since I came in, this woman has not stopped kissing my feet!
46 Saanmo nga binukbukan daytoy ulok iti lana, ngem binukbukanna dagiti sakak iti bangbanglo.
You did not [follow our custom of welcoming guests by] anointing my head with [olive] oil, but she has anointed my feet with fragrant perfume.
47 Gapu iti daytoy, ibagak kenka nga isuna nga adu iti nagbasolanna ken napakawan iti ad-adu ket dakdakkel met ti panagayatna. Ngem iti basbassit iti napakawan kenkuana, bassit laeng iti panagayatna.”
So I will tell you that even though this woman has sinned very much, she has been forgiven {[I] have forgiven her}. [By what she has done she has shown that] she loves [me] very much. But a person who has [sinned] just a little bit, but whom [I] have forgiven, will love [me just a little bit].”
48 Ket imbagana iti babai, “Napakawanen dagiti basbasolmo.”
Then he said to the woman, “You have been forgiven {[I have] forgiven [you]} [for] your sins.”
49 Dagiti amin nga agsangsanggir sadiay ket inrugida nga kinuna iti maysa ken maysa kadakuada, “Siasino daytoy nga agpakawan pay kadagiti basbasol?”
Then those who were eating with him said among themselves, “(This man must [think that he is God]!/Who does this man [think that he] is [RHQ]), saying that he can forgive [people for] their sins?”
50 Ket kinuna ni Hesus iti babai, “Ti pammatim ket insalakannaka. Mapanka nga sitatalna”.
But Jesus said to the woman, “Because you have trusted [PRS] [in me, God] has saved you [from the guilt of your sins]. May [God] give you inner peace as you go!”
