Uluka 15
1 Vat anu u kabsa ikirfi ima nyanga nan anu amadini wa ezi ahira a Yeso wa kunna ume.
But all the tax-collectors and the sinners were, unto him, drawing near, to be hearkening unto him;
2 Vat afatisiyawa nan anu yetteke wa zi unu humuro acece aweme, agi, “unu ugeme mazi unu kabsa anu kabsa ana madini, wa rē imumare nigome.”
and both the Pharisees and the Scribes were murmuring, saying, This man, unto sinners, giveth welcome, and eateth with them.
3 Yeso ma buki ubata uginome, magu.
And he spake unto them this parable, saying—
4 Ingi uye shime ma zini itam inu akuri ukirau, bi inde be hunne me, mada ceki me ina kuri turwai in nanu turuwI, igino me ahira ukese, ma tarsi bi inde be sa ba hunne me maka tinka bini?
What man from among you, having a hundred sheep, and losing, from among them, one, doth not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go his way after the lost one, until he find it?
5 Ingi maka tinka, madi tari agirza ini iriba irum.
And, finding it, he layeth it upon his shoulders, rejoicing;
6 Ingi maze akura, m titi aroni nan anu uppru umeme, magu, benkini mi iriba irum barki ma tinka ku tam me sa ka hunne mi.
and, coming unto his house, calleth together the friends and the neighbours, saying unto them—Rejoice with me! because I have found my sheep that was lost!
7 In boo shi, ane adi wuzi uriba irum anyimo Aseseri, ahira uni imum iburi sa ma kaba tize ti Yeso, ma teki ana kuri turwai ina nanu turwai adesa wa zome ini riba ukaba u Yeso.
I say unto you—Thus, joy in heaven, will there be, over one sinner repenting, rather than over ninety-nine righteous persons, who indeed have, no need, of repentance.
8 Nani uya unemeni, ingi ma zini ikirki azumo akelkel anu ukirau ingi biinde ba hunne me, mada wuna me ura ubitila ma visi akurame, ma dingi unyara me barki ma tika?
Or, what woman, having, ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, doth not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and seek carefully, until she find it?
9 Ingi ma tinka madi ori oromi ameme nan anu upuru umeme, magu, benkini me iriba irum barki matinka bi kirfi bumme sa ba hunne me.
And, having found it, she calleth together her female friends and neighbours, saying—Rejoice with me! because I have found the piece of silver which I had lost.
10 Ane ani boo shi, imummu iriba irum ini ahira ahana kadure ka Asere ingi una madini u inde ma kaba Yeso.
Thus, I say unto you, there ariseth joy in presence of the messengers of God, over one sinner repenting.
11 Ba Yeso magun we, uye ma rani mazina ahana ware aruma.
And he said—A certain man, had two sons.
12 Kuci me anyimo ahana me magun in kacoo uweme, acoo, nyam ukalum um anyimo imumbe sa uzini, ba acoo me hari we imumbe sa ma zini karee.
And the younger of them said unto the father—Father! give me the share that falleth to me, of what there is. And, he, divided unto them the living.
13 Tiye ti akici, vana unezeme ma ori vat tirunga tumeme, ma meki unā uhana anire nipit. Abine ani maka huna ikirfi imeni, ma kpiji imumbe sa ma nyara, mahu ikirfi imeme ahira katuma kaburi.
And, after not many days, the younger son, gathering all together, left home for a country far away, and, there, squandered his substance with riotous living.
14 Sa ma mara u huna imumbe sa mazini, awuzi ikomo idandang ani pim me, ma ribe udira.
And, when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine throughout that country, —and, he, began to be in want.
15 Maha maka nyara katuma ahira uye una nipin me, ma ziki me katuma kunyinza maladu imum are.
And he went his way, and joined himself unto one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to be feeding swine.
16 Maka kuna are imumare imaladume barki da a nyizi me imumare ba.
And he used to long to be filled with the pods which the swine were eating; and, no man, was giving unto him.
17 Sa iriba me ya koro ahira me, magu ana katuma ka acoo am, am wani wazin in imumare sa ya bar we, mi be indi wi barki ikono.
But coming, to himself, he said—How many hired servants of my father, have bread enough and to spare, whereas, I, with famine, here, am perishing!
18 Indi biri in ha ahira'”acoo am, in ka gunan me, acoo am ma wuza aseseri imum iburi, makuri ma wuzo weni.
I will arise, and go unto my father, and will say unto him—Father! I have sinned against heaven, and before thee:
19 Da ma bari akuri agun mi vana uwe ba, kurzom gusi anyimo ana katuma ka akura aweme.”
No longer, am I worthy to be called a son of thine, —Make me as one of thy hired servants. And he arose, and came unto his own father.
20 Ba ma hiri ma dusa ahira acoo me. Datti mazi pit, acoo me ma iri me ugogoni u meka me, dusa unu sum maka meki me ma gbendiriko.
Now, while yet he was holding afar off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and, running, fell upon his neck, and tenderly kissed him.
21 Vana ma gun me, ma wuza Asesere imum ima dini ma kuri ma wuza we. Da ma bari utitim vana uweba.
And the son said unto him—Father! I have sinned against heaven, and before thee: No longer, am I worthy to be called a son of thine, —[make me as one of thy hired servants.]
22 Acoo me magun na arere akurame, wuzani debe i ēn unu dibi uriri, isoki me, sokini me bicofo atari timeme nan akwatak ati buna tumeme.
But the father said unto his servants—Quick! bring forth a robe—the best! and put on him, and get out a ring for his hand, and sandals for his feet.
23 Aka nyara ku naa sa inta akura, aweki, ti wuzi nigora.
And be bringing the fatted calf, sacrifice! and let us eat and make merry:
24 Vana um ma wi ana me ma zinu vengize, ma hune me ana me a kem me, watubi are imumare.
Because, this my son, was, dead, and hath come to life again, was lost, and is found. And they began to be making merry.
25 Uganiya nginome, vana u unu ma ra uru, sa ma aye mamu in nakura, ma kuma azin unu tira umanganga nan murso.
But his elder son was in a field; and, as, in coming, he drew near unto the house, he heard music and dancing, —
26 Matiti ure urere akura me, ma iki me nyannini azini wuza me anime.
and, calling near one of the youths, he inquired what these things, could be.
27 Urere magun me, uhenu uwemani maze akura, acoo aweme ma weki ku naa kugino, barki maze akura merum.
And, he, said unto him, —Thy brother, hath come, and thy father hath sacrificed the fatted calf, because, safe and sound, hath he received him back.
28 Uhenu me ma kuna iriba, ma game uribe akura me, acoo me ma suri ma rigaga me.
But he was provoked to anger, and would not go in. And, his father, coming out, began to entreat him.
29 Ya u unu me magun inka acoo me, ira vat ugbardang uti wee ti geme in zi in nirere dama mamu cara we iribani ba, vat anime da wamu nyan ku naa sa s indi wuzi nire ni hara nan runi am ba.
But, he, answering said unto his father—Lo! so many years as these, do I serve thee, and, at no time, a commandment of thine, have I transgressed, —And, unto me, at no time, hast thou given a kid, that, with my friends, I might make merry;
30 Sa vana uwe ugino me maze desa ma poki we nirubu unu kem uweme ahira anee uziza arubu, wa weki me kunaa ku naa ku ginime.
But, when, this thy son, who had devoured thy living with harlots, came, thou didst sacrifice, for him, the fatted calf;
31 Acoo me ma gun me, vana um, tizi na hu kondi uya uwui, vat imum be sa izi in iwe ini.
But, he, said unto him—Child! thou, always, art, with me, and, all that is mine, is, thine;
32 Ya wuna uri awuzi iriba irm, barki uhenu uweme ma wi, a' ana me ma vengize, ma hunne me a kem me.
But, to make merry and rejoice, there was need, because, this thy brother—was, dead, and hath come to life again, and was lost, and is found.
