Lioka 7
1 Ary rehefa vitan’ i Jesosy teo anatrehan’ ny olona izany toriteniny rehetra izany, dia nankany Kapernaomy Izy.
Now when He concluded all His sayings in the hearing of the people, He entered Capernaum.
2 Ary ny mpanompon’ ny kapiteny anankiray, izay malalany, dia narary efa ho faty.
Well a certain centurion's slave, who was valuable to him, was sick and about to die.
3 Koa raha nahare ny amin’ i Jesosy ilay kapiteny, dia naniraka loholon’ ny Jiosy hankeo aminy hangataka Azy mba ho avy ka hahasitrana ny mpanompony.
So when he heard about Jesus, he sent elders of the Jews to Him, asking Him to come and rescue his slave.
4 Ary rehefa tonga teo amin’ i Jesosy ireo, dia nangataka mafy taminy ka nanao hoe: Miendrika ny hanaovanao izany izy,
And when they came to Jesus they started pleading earnestly with Him, saying that the one for whom He would do this was worthy,
5 satria tia ny firenentsika izy, sady izy no efa nanao ny synagoga ho antsika.
“Because he loves our nation, and he himself built our synagogue.”
6 Ary Jesosy nandeha niaraka taminy. Ary rehefa efa mby teo akaikin’ ny trano Izy, ilay kapiteny dia naniraka sakaiza hitsena Azy ka nanao taminy hoe: Tompoko, aza manahirana ny tenanao Hianao; fa tsy miendrika hidiranao ao ambanin’ ny tafon-tranoko aho.
So Jesus went with them. But when He was no longer far from the house, the centurion sent friends to Him, saying to Him: “Lord, do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy that you should come under my roof.
7 Koa na dia ny tenako aza dia nataoko fa tsy miendrika hankeo aminao; fa mitenena ihany, dia ho sitrana ny ankizilahiko.
In fact I did not even consider myself worthy to come to you. Just say a word and my servant will be healed;
8 Fa izaho koa mba lehilahy manan-dehibe ihany, ka manana miaramila izay feheziko; koa hoy izaho amin’ ny anankiray: Mandehana, dia mandeha izy, ary amin’ ny anankiray koa Avia, dia avy izy, ary amin’ ny mpanompoko: Ataovy izao, dia manao izy.
because I also am a man placed under authority, having soldiers under me. I say to one, ‘Go!’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes; and to my slave, ‘Do this!’ and he does.”
9 Ary nony nahare izany Jesosy, dia gaga taminy; ary dia nitodika Izy ka nanao tamin’ ny vahoaka izay nanaraka Azy hoe: Lazaiko aminareo fa tsy mbola nahita finoana lehibe toy izany Aho, na dia tamin’ ny Isiraely aza.
Well upon hearing these things Jesus marveled at him, and turning to the crowd following Him, He said, “I say to you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith!”
10 Ary nony tafaverina tao an-trano ireo iraka ireo, dia hitany fa sitrana ilay mpanompo.
When those who were sent returned to the house they found that the slave who had been sick was well.
11 Ary taoriana kelin’ izany Jesosy dia nankany an-tanana atao hoe Naina; ary naniraka Azy ny mpianany sy ny vahoaka betsaka.
Now it happened on the next day that He went to a town called Nain, and many of His disciples went with Him, also a large crowd.
12 Ary rehefa mby teo akaikin’ ny vavahadin’ ny tanàna Izy, dia, indro, nisy fatin’ ny lehilahy anankiray nentina nivoaka, izay zanakalahy tokan’ ny reniny, sady mpitondratena ravehivavy; ary nisy vahoaka betsaka avy tao an-tanàna nanaraka azy.
But as He approached the town gate, mercy, a dead man was being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow; a large crowd from the town was with her.
13 Ary nony nahita an-dravehivavy ny Tompo, dia onena azy ka nanao taminy hoe: Aza mitomany.
When the Lord saw her He had compassion on her and said to her, “Don't cry!”
14 Ary nanatona Izy ka nanendry ny tranovorona, dia nijanona izay nilanja. Ary hoy Jesosy: zatovo, hoy Izaho aminao: Miarena.
And advancing He took hold of the bier and the bearers stood still. Then He said, “Young man, to you I say, get up!”
15 Dia niarina ny maty sady niteny, ary dia natolony tamin-dreniny.
So the dead man sat up and began to talk! Yes, He gave him back to his mother.
16 Ary raiki-tahotra ny olona rehetra ka nankalaza an’ Andriamanitra hoe: Mpaminany lehibe no efa mitsangana eto amintsika; ary Andriamanitra efa nitsinjo ny olony.
Fear took hold of all, and they began glorifying God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us!” and, “God has visited His people!”
17 Dia niely teny Jodia rehetra sy teny amin’ ny tany manodidina rehetra ny lazan’ i Jesosy ny amin’ izany zavatra izany.
And this report about Him went throughout Judea, as well as all the surrounding region.
18 Ary ny mpianatr’ i Jaona nanambara izany rehetra izany taminy.
Then the disciples of John informed him about all these things.
19 Ary Jaona niantso ny mpianany roa lahy hankao aminy, dia naniraka azy hankany amin’ ny Tompo hanao hoe: Hianao va Ilay ho avy, sa mbola hafa no andrasantsika?
And summoning a certain two of his disciples, John sent them to Jesus, saying, “Are you the Coming One, or should we look for another?”
20 Ary nony tonga tany aminy ireo lehilahy ireo, dia nanao hoe: Jaona Mpanao-batisa naniraka anay hankatỳ aminao hanao hoe: Hianao va Ilay ho avy, sa mbola hafa no andrasantsika?
When the men had come to Him, they said: “John the Baptizer has sent us to you, saying, ‘Are you the Coming One, or should we look for another?’”
21 Ary tamin’ izany ora izany Jesosy dia nahasitrana olona maro tamin’ ny rofy sy ny aretina sy ny fanahy ratsy sady nampahiratra ny jamba maro.
Well in that very hour He healed many from diseases and torments and malignant spirits, and to many blind He granted sight.
22 Dia namaly Izy ka nanao taminy hoe: Mandehana ianareo, ambarao amin’ i Jaona izao hitanareo sy renareo izao; mahiratra ny jamba, afaka ny mandringa, diovina ny boka, malady ny marenina, atsangana ny maty, ary ny malahelo dia itoriana ny filazantsara.
So in answer Jesus said to them: “Go and report to John the things you have seen and heard: that the blind regain sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, dead are raised, the poor are evangelized.
23 Ary sambatra izay tsy ho tafintohina noho ny amiko.
And, blessed is he who does not take offense at me!”
24 Ary rehefa lasa ny irak’ i Jaona, dia nilaza an’ i Jaona tamin’ ny vahoaka Jesosy ka nanao hoe: Hizaha inona no nalehanareo tany an-efitra? Volotara nohozongozonin’ ny rivotra va?
Now when John's messengers had departed, He began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to observe, a reed being shaken by the wind?
25 Sa hizaha inona no nalehanareo? Olona mitafy lamba soa va? Indro, ny mitafy lamba soa sy mihinana zava-py dia ao an-tranon’ ny mpanjaka.
But what did you go out to see, a man clothed in soft garments? Really, those with gorgeous apparel and living in luxury are in palaces.
26 Sa hizaha inona no nalehanareo tany? Mpaminany va? Eny, hoy Izaho aminareo, sady mihoatra lavitra noho ny mpaminany izy.
But what did you go out to see, a prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much more than a prophet.
27 Fa izy ilay voasoratra hoe: Indro, Izaho maniraka ny irako hialoha Anao, Izay hamboatra ny lalanao eo alohanao.
This is he about whom it is written: ‘Take note, I am sending my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’
28 Lazaiko aminareo: Amin’ izay nateraky ny vehivavy tsy misy lehibe noho Jaona; nefa ny kely indrindra amin’ ny fanjakan’ Andriamanitra dia lehibe noho izy.
Further, I tell you that among those born of women there is no greater prophet than John the Baptizer; yet he who is least in the Kingdom of God is greater than he.”
29 Ary ny vahoaka rehetra sy ny mpamory hetra raha nandre, dia nanamarina an’ Andriamanitra, satria natao batisa tamin’ ny batisan’ i Jaona izy.
(When all the people, including the tax collectors, heard this, they declared God to be just, having been baptized with John's baptism.
30 Fa ny Fariseo sy ny mpahay lalàna kosa nandà ny fikasan’ Andriamanitra, satria tsy mba nanatona hataon’ i Jaona batisa izy.
But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the counsel of God for themselves, not having been baptized by him.)
31 Tahaka ny inona ary no hanoharako ny olona amin’ ity taranaka ity? tahaka ny inona moa izy?
“To what then shall I compare the men of this generation, and to what are they similar?
32 Tahaka ny ankizy madinika mipetraka eny an-tsena izy, izay mifampiantso hoe: Efa nitsoka sodina taminareo izahay, nefa tsy nandihy ianareo; efa nanao feo fisaonana izahay, nefa tsy nitomany ianareo.
They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling to one another, saying, ‘We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we mourned to you, and you did not cry.’
33 Fa tonga Jaona Mpanao-batisa tsy nihinan-kanina na nisotro divay, ka hoy ianareo: Manana demonia izy.
Because John the Baptizer came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon!’
34 Tonga ny Zanak’ olona mihinana sy misotro kosa, ka hoy ianareo: Indro, olona fatra-pitia hanina sy mpisotro divay, sakaizan’ ny mpamory hetra sy ny mpanota.
The Son of the Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Just look, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’
35 Fa ny fahendrena dia hamarinin’ ny zanany rehetra.
Still, by all her children wisdom is justified.”
36 Ary ny Fariseo anankiray nanasa an’ i Jesosy hiara-mihinana aminy; ary dia niditra tao an-tranon’ ilay Fariseo Izy ka nipetraka nihinana.
Then one of the Pharisees invited Him to eat with Him, so He entered the Pharisee's house and reclined.
37 Ary, indro, nisy vehivavy mpanota tao an-tanàna, ka rehefa fantany fa Jesosy nipetraka nihinana tao an-tranon’ ilay Fariseo, dia nitondra tavoara alabastara feno menaka manitra izy;
But then, a woman in the town who was a sinner, when she found out that He was reclining in the Pharisee's house, she brought an alabaster flask of perfume,
38 ary nijanona teo ivohony tanilan’ ny tongony izy ka nitomany, dia nahakotsa ny tongony tamin’ ny ranomasony sy namaoka azy tamin’ ny volon-dohany, dia nanoroka fatratra ny tongony ka nanosotra azy tamin’ ny menaka manitra,
and as she stood behind Him at His feet weeping, she began to wet His feet with her tears and kept wiping them with the hair of her head; and she kept kissing His feet and anointing them with the perfume.
39 Ary nony nahita izany ilay Fariseo nanasa Azy, dia nanao anakampo hoe: Raha mpaminany Ity, dia ho nahalala io vehivavy manendry Azy io sy ny toeny; fa mpanota io.
Now as the Pharisee who had invited Him observed this, he was saying to himself, “If this man were a prophet, he would know who is touching him, including what sort of woman she is—because she is a sinner!”
40 Ary Jesosy namaly ka nanao taminy hoe: Ry Simona, manan-kolazaina aminao Aho. Dia hoy izy: Lazao ary, Mpampianatra ô.
So Jesus reacted by saying to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” And he said, “Teacher, say on.”
41 Nisy roa lahy nananan’ ny mpampanàna vola anankiray trosa: ny iray nananany denaria diman-jato, ary ny iray kosa dimam-polo.
“A certain creditor had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
42 Ary raha tsy nanan-kaloa izy roa lahy, dia samy navelany. Koa iza moa amin’ ireo no ho tia azy indrindra?
And when they had no way to repay, he freely forgave them both. Now tell me, which of them will love him more?”
43 Simona namaly ka nanao hoe: Ataoko fa ilay namoizany be. Dia hoy Izy taminy: Marina ny hevitrao.
So Simon answered and said, “I suppose the one to whom he forgave more.” And He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”
44 Ary Jesosy nitodika nijery an-dravehivavy ka nanao tamin’ i Simona hoe: Hitanao va io vehivavy io? Niditra teto an-tranonao Aho; nefa tsy mba nanome Ahy rano hanasana ny tongotro ianao; fa izy kosa nahakotsa ny tongotro tamin’ ny ranomasony, dia namaoka azy tamin’ ny volon-dohany.
Then He turned toward the woman and said to Simon: “Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head.
45 Tsy mba nanoroka Ahy akory ianao; fa izy, hatr’ izay nidirako, dia tsy mbola nitsahatra nanoroka fatratra ny tongotro.
You gave me no kiss, but she has not stopped kissing my feet since the time I came in.
46 Ny lohako tsy mba nohosoranao diloilo akory; fa izy kosa nanoso-menaka manitra ny tongotro.
You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with perfume.
47 Ary amin’ izany dia lazaiko aminao: Voavela ny helony be, fa be fitiavana izy; fa izay voavela tamin’ ny kely dia kely fitiavana.
For this reason, I say to you, her many sins have been forgiven, because she loved much; but to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.”
48 Dia hoy Izy tamin-dravehivavy: Voavela ny helokao.
Then He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
49 Ary izay niara-nipetraka nihinana teo aminy dia niresaka hoe: Iza moa Ity no mba mamela heloka?
The other recliners began to say within themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”
50 Ary hoy Izy tamin-dravehivavy: Ny finoanao efa namonjy anao; mandehana soa aman-tsara.
Then He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go into peace.”
