Ruku 16
1 Jisasi'a, mago'ene amage nentaza disaipol naga'amokizmi anage huno fronka kea zamasmi'ne, Magora afufenone ne'mo'a, fenoma'are ugagota huno kva nehia eri'za ne'mo, fenoma'a eri havia hu'nea nanekea,
Jesus said to his disciples: “There was a rich man who had a steward; and this steward was maliciously accused to him of wasting his estate.
2 nentahino ugagota eri'za ne'a agi higeno egeno, na'a hu'nana naneke antahi'noe? Mafka eri'zama eri'nana avontafe ka'a erinka enka eme erifatgo huo. Na'ankure kagra mago'ene ugagota kva omanigahane huno higeno,
So the master called him and said ‘What is this that I hear about you? Give in your accounts, for you cannot act as steward any longer.’
3 ana ugagota eri'za kva ne'mo'a amanahu ke agra'a agu'afina antahi'ne, na'a nagra hugahue. Kva ni'amo'a eri'za ni'a eri atreanki? Nagrira hoza eri hanaveni'a omnegahiankina vaheku nzahuo huzankura nagaze hugahie huno nehuno,
‘What am I to do,’ the steward asked himself, ‘now that my master is taking the steward’s place away from me? I have not strength to dig, and I am ashamed to beg.
4 Nagra naza hugahue hago antahue, ugagotahu kva eri'za'niafinti hunante'na, vahe'mo'za muse hunante'za navare'za nozmifi ome nantegahaze.
I know what I will do, so that, as soon as I am turned out of my stewardship, people may welcome me into their homes.’
5 Nehuno ozafa'amofo zama nofi huno eri'nea vahe, mago mago ke higeza ageno, ese'ma emofo agra anage huno antahige'ne, nama'a ozafa'nimofo'zana nofira hunka eri'nane?
One by one he called up his master’s debtors. ‘How much do you owe my master?’ he asked of the first.
6 Higeno ana ne'mo'a anage hu'ne, 100'a Olivi masaventafe eri'noe higeno, ana fenonte ugagota hu'nea kva ne'mo anage hu'ne, ame hunka mopafi maninka avontafeka'a erinka 50'a masaventafene hunka avona krento huno asami'ne.
‘Four hundred and forty gallons of oil,’ answered the man. ‘Here is your agreement,’ he said; ‘sit down at once and make it two hundred and twenty.’
7 Anante rumo egeno ana ugagota kva eri'za ne'mo antahige'ne, Nama'a kagra nofira hu'nane? Higeno ana ne'mo'a 100'a witigure higeno, ugagota eri'za kva nemo'a huno avon tafe erinka 80'a witigure hunka avona krento hu'ne.
And you, the steward said to the next, ‘how much do you owe?’ ‘Seventy quarters of wheat,’ he replied. ‘Here is your agreement,’ the steward said; ‘make it fifty-six.’
8 Henka kva ne'mo'a, fenozante ugagota huno kvahu so'e osu'nea kva ne' muse hunte'ne. Na'ankure antahiza me'nea kva vahemo nehiaza hu'negure. Hagi ama knafi havizama nehaza vahe'mo'za zamagra zantera knare hu'za kva nehu'za, tavi masare'ma nemaniza vahera zamagateneraze. (aiōn g165)
His master complimented this dishonest steward on the shrewdness of his action. And indeed men of the world are shrewder in dealing with their fellow-men than those who have the Light. (aiōn g165)
9 Amanage hu'na Nagra neramasmue, fenoma erinka ama mopafi fatgo osu'zante'ma netrana zana, netrenka ana zanteti vahera zamazeri knampa huzmante'negeno, ana fenoma vagama resige'za, muse hu'za kavare'za mani vava nonkuma zamirega vugahaze. (aiōnios g166)
And I say to you ‘Win friends for yourselves with your dishonest money,’ so that, when it comes to an end, there may be a welcome for you into the Eternal Home. (aiōnios g166)
10 Mago'mo'ma osi'zantema so'e huno kegavahu fatgo hanimo'a, anahu kna huno ra zana kegavahu fatgo hugahie. Hagi osi'zama kegavahu fatgo osanimo'a, ra zana kegavahu fatgo osugahie.
He who is trustworthy in the smallest matter is trustworthy in a great one also; and he who is dishonest in the smallest matter is dishonest in a great one also.
11 Kagrama ama mopafi fenozama kegavahu fatgo osnankeno'a, iza tamage fenoma kvama kri'zana kamigahie?
So, if you have proved untrustworthy with the ‘dishonest money,’ who will trust you with the true?
12 Kagrama vahe'zama kegava huhaviza hanankeno'a, kagri'zana iza kamigahie.
And, if you have proved untrustworthy with what does not belong to us, who will give you what is really our own?
13 Mago eri'za ne'mo'a tare ozafarera eri'zana e'origahie. Mago'mofona antahi haviza hunenteno, mago'mofona avesi antegahie. Huge mago'mo'ene mani tragoneteno, mago'mofona atregahie. Kagra Anumzante ene zagorera eri'zana eriontegahane.
No servant can serve two masters, for, either he will hate one and love the other, or else he will attach himself to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.”
14 Farisi vahe'mo'za ana maka ke nentahi'za, (zagogu zamesi zamesi nehaza naga'mo'za) agiza nere'za, hupri hunte'naze.
All this was said within hearing of the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, and they began to sneer at Jesus.
15 Hu'neanagi Jisasi'a amanage huno zamasmi'ne, Vahe'mofo zamavurera tamagra fatgo vahere hutma nehazanagi, Anumzamo'a tamagu'a ke'ne. Na'ankure vahe'mo'zama knarezantfa me'ne nehaza'zamo'a, Anumzamofo avufina havizantfa me'ne.
“You,” said Jesus, “are the men who justify themselves before the world, but God can read your hearts; and what is highly esteemed among men may be an abomination in the sight of God.
16 Mosese kasegene, kasnampa vahe'mofo kea huama huno Joni knare eme atre'ne. Hagi ananteti'ma e'neana Anumzamofo kumamofo musenke huama nehigeno, hakare vahe'mo'za hanaveti'za ana kumapi vanagura kazigazi hu'za nevaze.
The Law and the Prophets sufficed until the time of John. Since then the Good News of the Kingdom of God has been told, and everybody has been forcing his way into it.
17 Hu'neanagi amane fru huno monane, mopanena fanane hugahianagi, kasege kefima me'nea osi avomo'a vaga oregahie.
It would be easier for the heavens and the earth to disappear than for one stroke of a letter in the Law to be lost.
18 Iza'o a'ma netreno ru a'ma erinuno'a, anamo'a monko'za hugahie. Hagi mago ne'mo'ma, ve'a atre'nesi'a a' erisanimo'a, monkoza hugahie huno hu'ne.
Every one who divorces his wife and marries another woman is an adulterer, and the man who marries a divorced woman is an adulterer.
19 Jisasi'a amanage hu'ne, Mago ne'mo afufenoma'a hakare me'negeno tusi'a zago atreno, koranke kukena nehuno, asanema nehia ne'za knane knane erino neneno, so'e huno mani'ne.
There was once a rich man, who dressed in purple robes and fine linen, and feasted every day in great splendour.
20 Ana nehigeno noma'a kasante mago nera fenoma'a omane'nea fugo namune ne' antazageno manitere nehiane. Ana ne'mofo agi'a Lasarusi'e.
Near his gateway there had been laid a beggar named Lazarus, who was covered with sores,
21 Lasarusi'a maseno mani'neno, feno ne'mo'ma ne'za nenesigeno ankra heramisiama'a erina nesue huno nehuno emani'negeza, kramo'za namuma'areti zamaganefu'nanu hu'ne hane hu'naze.
and who longed to satisfy his hunger with what fell from the rich man’s table. Even the very dogs came and licked his sores.
22 Anante amunte omane nera frige'za, ankero vahe'mo'za eri'za Abrahamu nemania kumate vu'naze. Vutageno afufeno nera anante frige'za eri'za ome asentageno,
After a time the beggar died, and was taken by the angels to be with Abraham. The rich man also died and was buried.
23 hagi tevefi manineno tusiza huno ata negrigeno kenagamuteno Abrahamuke Lasarusikea, afete magopi mani'nakeno zanage'ne. (Hadēs g86)
In the Place of Death he looked up in his torment, and saw Abraham at a distance and Lazarus at his side. (Hadēs g86)
24 Neznageno kezatino, Abrahamuga nafa'nimoka teve nenrege'na natagu nehuanki kasuntagi nantenka, Lasarusina huntegeno timpi azanko agona'a reteno nagefu'nare eme rentenkeno fru hunanteno hu'ne.
So he called out ‘Pity me, Father Abraham, and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am suffering agony in this flame.’
25 Abrahamu'a amanage huno asmi'ne, Mofavre'moka kagesa antahio. Mopafi mani'nenka knare zampi mani'nankeno Lasarusi'a haviza huno mani'ne. Hu'neanagi menina Lasarusi'a fruzampi emani'negenka kagra kata zampi mani'nane.
‘Child,’ answered Abraham, ‘remember that you in your lifetime received what you thought desirable, just as Lazarus received what was not desirable; but now he has his consolation here, while you are suffering agony.
26 Hanki mago'zana amanahu kna'za me'ne. Tamagri'ene tagri'ene amu'nompina tusi'a tinka me'negeno, hagro hu'neankita tamagritegama takaheta vu'zanku'ene tagritega ezankura tusi'a amuho hurantegahie.
And not only that, but between you and us there lies a great chasm, so that those who wish to pass from here to you cannot, nor can they cross from there to us.’
27 Anante anage higeno, afufenone ne'mo'a amanage hu'ne. Nafa'nimoka Abrahamuga muse hugantoanki Lasarusina huntegeno nenfa nontega vino,
‘Then, Father,’ he said, ‘I beg you to send Lazarus to my father’s house —
28 na'ankure nafa'nimofo nompina 5fu'a nafuhe'ina zamatre'na e'noanki, Lasarusina huntegeno hanave'nentake kore ke ome huzmasamisige'za tusi'a ata eri kumapina omeho hu'ne.
For I have five brothers to warn them, so that they may not come to this place of torture also.’
29 Hu'neanagi Abrahamu'a kenona huno, Moses nanekene kasnampa vahe'mokizmi nanekea me'neanki'za zamagra ana nanekea antahigahaze.
‘They have the writings of Moses and the Prophets,’ replied Abraham; ‘let them listen to them.’
30 Ana hianagi afufenoma'ane ne'mo'a anage hu'ne, a'o nafa'nimoke higeno, Abrahamu'a anage hu'ne, frinefinti otino ome zamasamisiana zamagu'a rukrahera hugahazo!
‘But, Father Abraham,’ he urged, ‘if some one from the dead were to go to them, they would repent.’
31 Anage hianangi Abrahamu amanage huno asami'ne, I'o. Moses nanekene, kasnampa vahe'mokizmi nanekema nontahisu'za, inankna hu'za fripinti otino ome zamasami'nia kerera zamagu'a rukrehe hugahaze huno hu'ne.
‘If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets,’ answered Abraham, ‘they will not be persuaded, even if some one were to rise from the dead.’”
