Ruku 19
1 Hagi Jisasi'a Jeriko rankumapi ufreno nevigeno,
Jesus entered Jericho and made his way through the town.
2 mago nera Sakiasi'e nehaza nera, takesi zago eneriza vahe'mokizmi kva nekino, afufeno ne' mani'ne.
There was a man there, known by the name of Zacchaeus, who was a commissioner of taxes and a rich man.
3 Nankna ne' Jisasi'a mani'ne huno Sakiasi'a kenaku hianagi, tusi'a vahe'mo'za rehiza huntazageno onke'ne. Na'ankure agra atupa ne' mani'ne.
He tried to see what Jesus was like; but, being short, he was unable to do so because of the crowd.
4 Ana higeno agareno vugoteno, vunaku'ma hiankante me'nea sikamo zafare umarerino kenigu mani'ne. Na'ankure Jisasi'a ana kante enaku higeno'e.
So he ran on ahead and climbed into a mulberry tree, to see Jesus, for he knew that he must pass that way.
5 Jisasi'a anama mani'nere ne-eno, kenagamuteno negeno anage huno asami'ne, Sakiasiga ame hunka eramio, na'ankure menina kagri nompi umanigahue.
When Jesus came to the place, he looked up and said to him: “Zacchaeus, be quick and come down, for I must stop at your house to-day.”
6 Higeno Sakias'a ame huno eramino, muse nehuno avreno noma'arega vu'ne.
So Zacchaeus got down quickly, and joyfully welcomed him.
7 Ana'ma hige'za maka vahe'mo'za nege'za, ke hakare hunte'za, kumi vahe'mofo nompina nantura antenente hu'naze.
On seeing this, every one began to complain: “He has gone to stay with a man who is an outcast.”
8 Hanki Sakiasi'a otino amanage huno Ramofona asmi'ne. Ramoka antahio, fenoni'a amu'nompinti refko hu'na zmunte omne vahe nezamina, nagrama rezmatga hu'na eri'noazana refko hu'na 4'a zupa zamigahue.
But Zacchaeus stood forward and said to the Master: “Listen, Master! I will give half my property to the poor, and, if I have defrauded any one of anything, I will give him back four times as much.”
9 Higeno Jisasi'a amanage huno asami'ne, Menina ama nompi mani'naza vahetera, Anumzamo'a zmahokeno zamavare'neazamo ko e'ne. Na'ankure agranena Abrahamu mofavre mani'ne.
“Salvation has come to this house to-day,” answered Jesus, “for even this man is a son of Abraham.
10 Na'ankure vahe'mofo Mofavremo'a, fanane hu'naza vaheku hakeno zamavarenaku e'ne.
The Son of Man has come to ‘search for those who are lost’ and to save them.”
11 Ana nanekema nentahizageno, Jisasi'a mago'ane fronka kea zamasami'ne. Na'ankure mago'a vahe'mo'za antahi'zana, Anumzamofo kumara ame huno egahie hu'za nentahizageno, Jisasi'a Jerusalemi tavaonte mani'neno zamasamino,
As the people were listening to this, Jesus went on to tell them a parable. He did so because he was near Jerusalem, and because they thought that the Kingdom of God was going to be proclaimed at once.
12 Mago ne'mo'a mago kumatega vuno anantega kva umaniteno ete enaku nehuno,
He said: “A nobleman once went to a distant country to receive his appointment to a Kingdom and then return.
13 10ni'a kazokzo eri'za vahe'a kehuno, 10ni'a zago nezamino, anage huno zamasami'ne. Eri'za kante erinenteta mago'a zagoa retro nehinkena etena henka egahue.
He called ten of his servants and gave them ten pounds each, and told them to trade with them during his absence.
14 Hianagi ana kumapi nemaniza vahe'mo'za zamasivazinte'za, mago'amokizmi huzmantage'za vu'za anage hu'naze. Tagra ama ne'mo'ma kvagri rante'zankura tave'osie hu'naze.
But his subjects hated him and sent envoys after him to say ‘We will not have this man as our King.’
15 Ana kumama omeriteno ete eno, kazokzo eri'za naga'a koma zami'nea zagoretira, nankna huza mago'a zagoa retrora hu'naze keno antahino hunaku zamagi hu'ne.
On his return, after having been appointed King, he directed that the servants to whom he had given his money should be summoned, so that he might learn what amount of trade they had done.
16 Ese ne'mo'a eno anage hu'ne, Ramoka tare zotama zago naminantetira, mago'ane ana zagoretira eri'za eri'na 200 zagoa retro hu'noe, higeno,
The first came up, and said ‘Sir, your ten pounds have made a hundred.’
17 ana ne'mo'a anage huno asami'ne, so'e hunka eri'za eri'nane, knare eri'za nemoka, na'ankure osi'zante knare hunka kegava hu'nanku, menina 10ni'a rankuma kegava hugahane higeno,
‘Well done, good servant!’ exclaimed the master. ‘As you have proved trustworthy in a very small matter, I appoint you governor over ten towns.’
18 anante'mo'a eno anage hu'ne, Ramoka tare zotama zagoma nami'nantetira eri'za eri'na 100 zagoa retro hu'noe higeno,
When the second came, he said ‘Your ten pounds, Sir, have produced fifty.’
19 Ana ra ne'mo'a anage agri enenkura huno asami'ne, kagranena 5fu'a kuma kegava hugahane huno asmi'ne.
So the master said to him ‘And you I appoint over five towns.’
20 Mago'mo anante eno anage hu'ne, Ramoka, zagoma nami'nanana hankasipifi ante'novzitena ante'noankina ama erina oe.
Another servant also came and said ‘Sir, here are your ten pounds; I have kept them put away in a handkerchief.
21 Na'ankure kagra hihamu ne' mani'nenka kema hunka hugahue hanazana nehunka, kagra rumo'za kri'nazaza enerinka, onkrinanazana negafinka nehanku kore hu'na fraki'noane.
For I was afraid of you, because you are a stern man. You take what you have not planted, and reap what you have not sown.’
22 Ana ne'mo'a anage huno asmi'ne, Kagrama hana kere, kefo kazokzo nemoka kagrira refko hugahue. Kagra ontahi'nane, Nagra himamu ne' mani'nena, nagrama onte'noazana eneri'na, okri'noazana nevasaguana kagra ontahinano?
The master answered ‘Out of your own mouth I judge you, you worthless servant. You knew that I am a stern man, that I take what I have not planted, and reap what I have not sown?
23 Na'a higenka zagoni'a zagoma nentaza nompi antenankeno, ruguheno mago'a erifore nehigena ehanatina e'orue?
Then why did not you put my money into a bank? And I, on my return, could have claimed it with interest.
24 Anage huteno, anante oti'naza vaheku anage huno zamasami'ne, tare zota'a zago eritma 200 zagoma erifore hu'nea nemofo amiho.
Take away from him the ten pounds,’ he said to those standing by, ‘and give them to the one who has the hundred.’
25 Ana vahe'mo'za anage hu'za ana nekura hu'naze. Ramoka, agra 10ni'a zagoa ko eri'ne hu'za hu'naze.
‘But, Sir,’ they interposed, ‘he has a hundred pounds already!’
26 Hanki amanage hu'na neramasamue, maka vahe'mo'zama rama'a erinesamokizmia, mago'ane anteaguheno zamigahie. Hianagi e'orinesimofompintira, erineniama'a hanaregahue.
‘I tell you,’ he answered, ‘that, to him who has, more will be given, but, from him who has nothing, even what he has will be taken away.
27 Hianagi ama ha' vahe'nimo'za, kvama nagra huzmantezankura zamesra hunantaza vahera, zamavareta nagri navure zamaheta rukafritreho huno hu'ne.
But as for my enemies, these men who would not have me as their King, bring them here and put them to death in my presence.’”
28 Jisasi'a anage huno zamasmiteno, ugagota huzmanteno Jerusalemi kumate vu'naku vu'ne.
After saying this, Jesus went on in front, going up to Jerusalem.
29 Jisasima Jerusalemi vunaku Betfagene Betani kumatema nevuno, Olive nehaze agonare erava'o nehuno, amagema nenta'a disaipol ne'trena huznanteno,
It was when Jesus had almost reached Bethphage and Bethany, near the Mount of Olives, that he sent on two of the disciples.
30 anage huno zanasami'ne, Ugota huta antu kumapi ufreta ome kesa'ana, vahe'mo'za agofetura mani'za ovu'nesaza donki afu kinare mani'nesigeta kegaha'anki, kazufeta avazu huta amare e'o.
“Go to the village facing us,” he said, “and, when you get there, you will find a foal tethered, which no one has yet ridden; untie it and lead it here.
31 Mago'a vahe'mo'zama tanantahimage'za na'a hunaku katunefa'e? Hanageta anage huta znasamiho, Ramofona eri'za me'negeno hurantegeta'e hi'o.
And, if anybody asks you ‘Why are you untying it?,’ you are to say this — ‘The Master wants it.’”
32 Jisasima anage huno huznantegeke vu'ne ome ka'ana, kema huzanante'neaza hu'negene ome ke fore hu'na'e.
So the two who were sent went and found it as Jesus had told them.
33 Nofi'ma ana donki rentenea ome katu nefakeno, ana donki afu'mofo nafa'amo'a znantahigeno, Na'a hunaku donki afura katu nefa'e? huno znantahigege'ne,
While they were untying the foal, the owners asked them — “Why are you untying the foal?”
34 Ramofona eri'za me'negeno hurantegeta eme katu nefo'e hu'na'e.
And the two disciples answered — “The Master wants it.”
35 Ana hutene avare'ne Jisasinte uhanatike, zanagra nakre kuzani ana donkimofo agofetu zafike antekeno Jisasi'a agofetu mani'ne.
Then they led it back to Jesus, and threw their cloaks on the foal and put Jesus upon it.
36 Jisasi'ma nevige'za vahe'mo'za nakrekuzmi zafiza kampi tafe vasinte'nageno ana agofetu vu'ne.
As he went along, the people kept spreading their cloaks in the road.
37 Ana'ma huno Olive agonare vu kantema uneramigeno hanatigeno, maka amagema nentaza disaipol naga'mo'za, Anumzamofo agi erisaga hu'naze. Na'ankure maka kaguvazama hige'za ke'naza zanku ranke hu'za musenkase nehu'za amrara hu'za,
When he had almost reached the place where the road led down the Mount of Olives, every one of the many disciples began in their joy to praise God loudly for all the miracles that they had seen:
38 ranke hu'za, Ramofo agifima ne-emofona ra agi amisune. Monafina rimpa fru menkeno, Anumzamofo hihamu hanavemo'a marerigateresie. (Sam-Zga 118:26, 148:1)
“Blessed is He who comes — Our King — in the name of the Lord! Peace in Heaven, And glory on high.”
39 Ana veapinti mago'a Farisi vahe'mo'za anage huza asmi'naze, Rempi hurami nemoka, kamagema nentaza disaipol nagaka'a ke zamasuge'za anage osiho hu'za asami'naze.
Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him: “Teacher, reprove your disciples.”
40 Hianagi Jisasi'a kenona anage hu'ne, Zamagrama kema taganenageno'a hankami havemo'za, Anumzamofo agi'a erisaga hugahaze!
But Jesus answered: “I tell you that if these men are silent, the very stones will call out.”
41 Jisasima Jerusalemi kuma tavaonte vugofa huno, ana ran kuma'ma negeno'a zavi neteno,
When he drew near, on seeing the city, he wept over it, and said:
42 anage hu'ne, Ama knare'ma kagrima krimpa fruma hu'zama fore'ma nehiazana, kagra nonkane! Hianagi kagri kavurera rimpa fruzamo'a frakino me'negenka nonkane.
“Would that you had known, while yet there was time — even you — the things that make for peace! But now they have been hidden from your sight.
43 Na'ankure mago'a kna ne-eankino, ha' vahe'timimo'za eme tamavazi kagiza, maka asopa eme regagi ramante'za,
For a time is coming upon you when your enemies will surround you with earthworks, and encircle you, and hem you in on all sides;
44 makazantmi eritagna vazi atresigeno, mopafi fragu vaziramino mena, tamagri'ene mofavretamine haviza nehanageno, zamagra mago havea atresageno mago havemofo agofetura omnegahie. Na'ankure kagrima Anumzamo'ma kazama hunaku'ma eazana kenka antahinka osu'nane.
they will trample you down and your children within you, and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, because you did not know ‘the time of your visitation.’”
45 Jisasi'a ra mono nonte vuno, miza neseza zagore netraza nagamofona, agafa huno zamahe megi netreno,
Jesus went into the Temple Courts and began to drive out those who were selling,
46 amanage huno zamasmi'ne, Anage huno avontafepina krentene, Nagri nomo'a nunamu hu no megahie. Hianagi kumzafa vahe'mofo nonkna eri nehaze. (Ais 56:7, Jer 7:11)
saying as he did so: “Scripture says — ‘My House shall be a House of Prayer’; but you have made it ‘a den of robbers.’”
47 Mago mago knarera Jisasi'a ra mono nompi rempi huzami'ne. Hianagi pristi vahe'mo'zane, kasegere ugagota hu'naza vahe'mo'zane, ranra vahe'mo'zanena azeri haviza hanaza kanku hakre'naze.
Jesus continued to teach each day in the Temple Courts; but the Chief Priests and Teachers of the Law were eager to take his life, and so also were the leading men.
48 Jisasima azeri haviza hanaza kana ke'za eri forera osu'naze. Na'ankure maka vahe'mo'za Jisasima hu'nea ke antahi'nazageno'e.
Yet they could not see what to do, for the people all hung upon his words.
