Matiu 18
1 Hagi ana knafi amage nentaza disaipol naga'mo'za Jisasinte e'za amanage hu'naze. Aza mona kumapina ugagota vahera manigahie?
On the same occasion the disciples came to Jesus, and asked him: “Who is really the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven?”
2 Hazageno Jisasi'a mago osi mofavre ke higeno egeno, amunozamifi azeri otiteno,
Jesus called a little child to him, and placed it in the middle of them, and then said:
3 amanage hu'ne. Nagra tamage hu'na neramasmue, Tamagra ruzahe huta osi mofavre'gna osanuta, mona kumapina ovutfa hugahaze.
“I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will not enter the Kingdom of Heaven at all.
4 Aza'o agra avufa antermino ama osi mofavre'gna hanimo, mona kumapi rana manigahie.
Therefore, any one who will humble himself like this child — that man shall be the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven.
5 Hagi aza'o ama anahukna huno osi mofavrema Nagri nagifima avresimo'a, Nagri navregahie.
And any one who, for the sake of my Name, welcomes even one little child like this, is welcoming me.
6 Hu'neanagi iza'o ama ne'one mofavre nagapinti'ma Nagrite amentinti nehimofoma kumipi avarente'simofona, ne'zama refuzafuma nepaza ra have eritma anankempi tafiteta, asgahutma hageri amu'nompi atresageno tima nakriniana knare hugahie.
But, if any one puts a snare in the way of one of these lowly ones who believe in me, it would be best for him to be sunk in the depths of the sea with a great millstone hung round his neck.
7 Iza'o rumofoma kumipima avrenentea vahekura nasuragie, na'ankure hakare zupa vahe'ma zamazeri kumipi netreazana me'ne. Hianangi iza'o rumofoma kumipi avrentesimo'a tusi'a hazankefi manigahie.
Alas for the world because of such snares! There cannot but be snares; yet alas for the man who is answerable for the snare!
8 Hagi kazamo'o, kagiamo'ma kavareno kumi kante'ma vanigenka, akafrinka matevu atro. Kagra'ma magoke kazane kaganema me'nesigenka manivava kasimuma erisanana knare hugahie. Hagi tare kazane kagane me'nenige'za tevava tevefi mate'vu katregahaze. (aiōnios g166)
If your hand or your foot is a snare to you, cut it off, and throw it away. It would be better for you to enter the Life maimed or lame, than to have both hands, or both feet, and be thrown into the aeonian fire. (aiōnios g166)
9 Kavurgamo'ma kumipi kavrentesigenka, tagatinka matevu netrenka, manivava kasimuma magoke kavurgane erisanana knare hugantegahie. Hagi tarega kvurgama menesigeno'a, tevava tevefi matevu katregahie. (Geenna g1067)
If your eye is a snare to you, take it out, and throw it away. It would be better for you to enter the Life with only one eye, than to have both eyes and be thrown into the fiery Pit. (Geenna g1067)
10 Tamagra kva hiho, amana ne'onse mofavre nagara zmage fenka otreho. Na'ankure Nagrama nermasmuana monafina zamagri ankeromo'za, mika zupa monafinka mani'nea Nenfa avugosa negaze.
Beware of despising one of these lowly ones, for in Heaven, I tell you, their angels always see the face of my Father who is in Heaven.
11 [Vahe'mofo mofavre'ma e'neana fanane hu'naza vahe hakreno zmarenaku e'ne.]
12 Na'ane tamagesa nentahize? Magomo'ma 100'a sipisipi ante'nesnifinti, mago'ma fanane hanigeno'a, 99'a agonarega zamatreneno mago'ma fananema hu'nemofonkura ome hakreno ovregahio? A'o.
What think you? If a man owns a hundred sheep, and one of them strays, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills, and go and search for the one that is straying?
13 Agra hakreno erifore hanuno'a, tamage neramasmue, 99ni'a fananema osu'naza sipisipi afuzaga agatereno mago'ma fananema hu'nemofona tusi'a muse huntegahie.
And, if he succeeds in finding it, I tell you that he rejoices more over that one sheep than over the ninety-nine which did not stray.
14 Anahu kna huno, monafinka Nermafa avesi'zamo'a, ama ne'onse nagapintira magore huno frino fanane osanie nehie.
So, too, it is the will of my Father who is in Heaven that not one of these lowly ones should be lost.
15 Mono negafu'ma kumi'ma hugantesigenka, vutna tanagragu umani'neta ana havizama hu'nesia zana ome azeri fatgo hunto. Agrama keka'ama antahisiana, negfuna avare kamatane.
If your Brother does wrong, go to him and convince him of his fault when you and he are alone. If he listens to you, you have won your Brother.
16 Hagi keka'ama ontahisnigenka, magoro tareo znavrenka vunetma, nentahisageno mika hazenkea erifatgo huno eriama hugahie.
But, if he does not listen to you, take with you one or two others, so that ‘on the evidence of two or three witnesses, every word may be put beyond dispute.’
17 Hanigeno agrama antahi oramisiana, mono kevumofo asamio. Hanankeno mono kevumofo ke ontahisiana, atregeno agra mono ontahi vahero, havige huno takesi zago eri vahekna vahe manino.
If he refuses to listen to them, speak to the Church; and, if he also refuses to listen to the Church, treat him as you would a Gentile or a tax-gatherer.
18 Nagra tamage hu'na neramasmue, inankna zama mopare'ma anakisnaza zana, anazanke huno monarera anakigahie. Hagi inankna zama mopare'ma vakane atresnaza zana, anahu'kna huno monarera vakane atregahie.
I tell you, all that you forbid on earth will be held in Heaven to be forbidden, and all that you allow on earth will be held in Heaven to be allowed.
19 Ete mago'ene Nagra tamage hu'na neramasmue, taremotna ama moparera mani'netna, mago tnarimpa hutetna, mago'a zanku antahigesna'ana, monafinka mani'nea Nenfa'a amne hugahie.
Again, I tell you that, if but two of you on earth agree as to what they shall pray for, whatever it be, it will be granted them by my Father who is in Heaven.
20 Na'ankure ama mopare'ma taremo'o tagufamo'za, Nagri nagire emeritru hanafina, Nagra zamagri amu'nozmifi manigahue.
For where two or three have come together in my Name, I am present with them.”
21 Anante Pita'a, Jisasinte eno anage hu'ne, Ramoke, kumi hunantesia nenafuna, nama'a zupa kumi'a atrentegahue, 7ni'a zupa atrentegahufi?
Then Peter came up, and said to Jesus: “Master, how often am I to forgive my Brother when he wrongs me? As many as seven times?”
22 Higeno Jisasi'a Pitankura anage hu'ne, 7ni'a zupo'ompge, Nagra tamage hu'na negasamue, 7ni'a 70'a zupa atrentegahane.
But Jesus answered: “Not seven times, but ‘seventy times seven.’
23 Ama ana agafare mona kumamo'a amanahu hu'ne, mago kinimo'ma kazokzo eri'za vahe'amoza zagoa nofi hu'naza ete erinaku hige'za eri'za refako hu'za eme amizankna hu'ne.
And therefore the Kingdom of Heaven may be compared to a king who wished to settle accounts with his servants.
24 Anama huno zaganeno hakeno negege'za, 10 tauseni zago'a nofi hu'nea ne' agrite avare'za e'naze.
When he had begun to do so, one of them was brought to him who owed him six million pounds;
25 Na'ankure ana ne'mo'a nofima hu'neana ovaknegeno, ramo hamponage ana ne'ku huno, a'mofavre'ane mika tuzampaza ante'neazana zagore ome atrenka, nofima hu'neama'a etenka vaknento higeno,
and, as he could not pay, his master ordered him to be sold towards the payment of the debt, together with his wife, and his children, and everything that he had.
26 anante kazokzo eriza ne'mo'a mopafi agri avuga mseno keke hunteno, kagra agazone hunaminege'na, mika nofi'ma hunoana ete'na nagra vaknaneno hu'ne.
Thereupon the servant threw himself down on the ground before him and said ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you all.’
27 Ana kazokzo eri'za ne'mofo Ramo'a kazokazo nera asuragi anteno avrenetreno nofima hu'nea zana atrentene.
The master was moved with compassion; and he let him go, and forgave him the debt.
28 Ana higeno atiramino fegi vuteno'a, magoka kazokazo eri'za eneri'a ne'mo agripinti 100'a silva zago nofi hu'nea ne' omege'ne. Anante ananke nofite avazu nehuno anage hu'ne, nagripinti nofi'ma hu'nana zana etenka vakano hu'ne.
But, on going out, that same servant came upon one of his fellow-servants who owed him ten pounds. Seizing him by the throat, he said ‘Pay what you owe me.’
29 Anante ana kazokzo eri'za ne'mo mopafi unemaseno keke hunteno, agazone hu'nantenege'na nagra eme vaknaneno.
Thereupon his fellow-servant threw himself on the ground and begged for mercy. ‘Have patience with me,’ he said, ‘and I will pay you.’
30 Hianagi ana kea ontahino ruvahe hiazamo kina nompi avreno ome retufe vazigeno mani'neno, nofi'ma hu'nea zana vaknegahie.
But the other would not, but went and put him in prison till he should pay his debt.
31 Magoka kazokzo eri'zama eneriza naga'mo'za fore'ma hiazana kete'za, tusiza hu'za zamasunku hute'za vazamo'za mika zama fore hiazana ra zamimofo ome asmi'naze.
When his fellow-servants saw what had happened, they were greatly distressed, and went to their master and laid the whole matter before him.
32 Anante rankva ne'amo'a ugota kazokzo eri'za ne' kehuno, Kagra havi kavukva'ene kazokzo eri'za nere! Na'ankure kagrama keke ke hunantake'na maka nofi'ma hu'nana zana atregante'noe.
Upon that the master sent for the servant, and said to him ‘You wicked servant! When you begged me for mercy, I forgave you the whole of that debt.
33 Nagrama hugante'noaza hunka kazokzo eri'za negafuna kasunkura huontegahampi?
Ought not you, also, to have shown mercy to your fellow-servant, just as I showed mercy to you?’
34 Nehuno tusi asi vazigeno, agri rankva'amo kina nonte kva nehaza vahete, azeri haviza nehanageno mani'neno nofi'ma hu'neaza vakanenogu avreno ome zami'ne.
Then his master, in anger, handed him over to the jailers, until he should pay the whole of his debt.
35 Ana hu'negu, mago mago'mokama negafuma kagu'areti hunka kumi'ama apase ontesanana, monare Nenfa'a tamagrira anazanke hurmantegahie.
So, also, will my heavenly Father do to you, unless each one of you forgives his Brother from his heart.”
