Lioka 16
1 Tinovo’e ty hoe amo mpiama’eo: Teo ty mpañaleale nitalilieñe te nandritse ty vara’e ty mpamandro-panaña’e.
And He also said to His disciples, “A certain man was rich, who had a steward, and he was accused to him as scattering his goods;
2 Aa le kinanji’e naho nanoa’e ty hoe: Akore ze o tsinanoko ty ama’o zao? Volilio o famandroña’oo, fa tsy ho mpamandroñe ka.
and having called him, he said to him, What [is] this I hear about you? Render the account of your stewardship, for you may not be steward any longer.
3 Le hoe ty fitsakorea’ i mpamandroñey: Inom-barè ty hanoeko kanao hafaha’ i talekoy amy famandroñakoy? Tsy lefeko ty miava, naho manalats’ ahy ty mangatake.
And the steward said in himself, What will I do, because my lord takes away the stewardship from me? I am not able to dig, I am ashamed to beg—
4 Inao arè ty hanoeko, soa te, ie navìk’ ami’ty maha mpamandroñe ahy, le mbe ho rambese’ iereo añ’ anjomba ao.
I have known what I will do, that, when I may be removed from the stewardship, they may receive me to their houses.
5 Aa le songa kinanji’e homb’ama’e ze nisongo amy talè’ey, le hoe ty asa’e amy valoha’ey: Fire ty songo’o amy talèko?
And having called near each one of his lord’s debtors, he said to the first, How much do you owe to my lord?
6 Le hoe re: Solike zato fañaranañe. Le hoe re ama’e: Masika! rambeso o takelan-tsongo’oo le miambesara, sokiro ty hoe: limampolo.
And he said, One hundred baths of oil; and he said to him, Take your bill, and having sat down write fifty.
7 Le hoe ka re ami’ty raike: Fire ty songo’o? le hoe re: Ampemba zato gony. Hoe ka ty asa’e: Ingo, rambeso o takela’oo, le valom-polo ty isorata’o.
Afterward to another he said, And you, how much do you owe? And he said, One hundred cors of wheat; and he says to him, Take your bill, and write eighty.
8 Aa le rinenge’ i bei’ey i mpamandroñe tsy jefa’ey, amy t’ie nampiboake hilala; toe mahilala amy tarira’ey o ana’ ty voatse toio te amo anan-kazavañeo. (aiōn g165)
And the lord commended the unrighteous steward that he did prudently, because the sons of this age are more prudent than the sons of the light in respect to their generation. (aiōn g165)
9 Le hoe iraho ama’ areo: Paiao rañetse arè amo vara tsy vokatseo, soa te ie milesa, ro mbe ho rambeseñe amo anjomba nainai’eo amy hamodoañey. (aiōnios g166)
And I say to you, make to yourselves friends out of the wealth of unrighteousness, that when you may fail, they may receive you into the continuous dwelling places. (aiōnios g166)
10 Ze vañom-po ami’ty kede, ho vañom-po ami’ty bey; ze tsy to ami’ty kede tsy ho to ami’ty bey.
He who is faithful in the least, [is] also faithful in much; and he who in the least [is] unrighteous, is also unrighteous in much;
11 Aa naho tsy malili-po amo vara tsy vokatseo nahareo, ia ty hampamandroñe anahareo o vente’eo.
if, then, in the unrighteous wealth you did not become faithful—who will entrust to you the true?
12 Le ie tsy vañoñe ami’ty vara’ ondaty, ia ty hanolots’ anahareo ty anahareo?
And if in the other’s you did not become faithful—who will give to you your own?
13 Tsy eo ty mpitoroñe maha-fitoron-droe; ho heje’e ty raike vaho hikokoa’e ty raike; ke ho rañete’e ty raike vaho ho rihie’e ty raike. Tsy mahafitoroñe an’ Andrianañahare naho o varao nahareo.
No servant is able to serve two lords, for either he will hate the one, and he will love the other; or one he will hold to, and of the other he will be heedless; you are not able to serve God and wealth.”
14 Ie nahajanjiñe i hoe zay o Fariseoo, kanao mpitea-drala, le nikizak’ aze.
And also the Pharisees, being lovers of money, were hearing all these things, and were deriding Him,
15 Aa hoe ty nanoa’e: Mpaniom-batañe am’ ondatio nahareo; fe arofoanan’ Añahare ty arofo’ areo, amy te ze atao’ ondatio ho vara ro tiva am-pivazohoan’ Añahare.
and He said to them, “You are those declaring yourselves righteous before men, but God knows your hearts; because that which is high among men [is] abomination before God;
16 Pak’ amy Jaona naho o Mpitokio t’i Hake; namototse henane zay le tseizeñe i Fifehean’Añaharey, vaho fonga mifanisike hizilik’ ao;
the Law and the Prophets [are] until John; since then the good news of the Kingdom of God is proclaimed, and everyone presses into it;
17 haivañe ty hihelaña’ i likerañey naho ty tane toy ta ty hamaohañe ndra ty pininìten-tsokitse amy Hake ao.
and it is easier for the heaven and the earth to pass away, than one tittle to fall of the Law.
18 Ze mañary valy hañenga ty hafa ro mañarapilo; vaho mañarapilo ka ty mañenga rakemba narian-dahy.
Everyone who is sending his wife away, and marrying another, commits adultery; and everyone who is marrying her sent away from a husband commits adultery.
19 Teo ty mpañaleale, mpisaron-tsarimbo malò-mavo naho leny matify, niaiñañoleñañe an-kafalefaleañe handro an-kandro.
And—a certain man was rich, and was clothed in purple and fine linen, making merry sumptuously every day,
20 Teo ka ty rarake atao Lazarosy, atseke bae, nakonenak’ añ’ila’ ty lalambei’e eo,
and there was a certain poor man, by name Lazarus, who was laid at his porch, full of sores,
21 le naina’e te hitsimoke ty nifitafita am-pandambaña’ i mpañalealey, te mone o amboao ro nomb’ ama’e nitsela o bae’eo.
and desiring to be filled from the crumbs that are falling from the table of the rich man; indeed, also the dogs, coming, were licking his sores.
22 Ie nihomake i rarakey, le nente’ ty anjely mb’añ’araña’ i Abraàme añe; nihomake ka i mpañalealey, le nalenteke.
And it came to pass, that the poor man died, and that he was carried away by the messengers into the bosom of Abraham—and the rich man also died, and was buried;
23 Ie nanoen-tsamporerak’ an-tanen-dolo ao i mpañalealey le niandra vaho nahatalake i Abraàme rekets’ i Lazarosy añ’araña’e eo, (Hadēs g86)
and having lifted up his eyes in Hades, being in torments, he sees Abraham far off, and Lazarus in his bosom, (Hadēs g86)
24 vaho nikoiha’e ty hoe: O aba, Abraàme, tretrezo, ehe ampihitrifo t’i Lazarosy handò ty lengon-drambo-pità’e an-drano hampanintsiñe ty lelako; fa loho malovilovy iraho añ’afo mirebareba atoy.
and having cried, he said, Father Abraham, deal kindly with me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and may cool my tongue, because I am distressed in this flame.
25 Fa hoe ty natoi’ i Abraàme: O anake, tiahio te hene niazo’o o raha fanjakao ihe mbe niveloñe, fa raty ka ty niazo’ i Lazarosy; ohoñen-dre henaneo te ihe malovilovy.
And Abraham said, Child, remember that you received your good things in your life, and Lazarus in like manner the evil things, and now he is comforted, and you are distressed;
26 Likoare’ i hoe zay, najadoñe añivon-tikañ’ ey ty herakerake jabajaba tsy lefe ty atoy tsaheñe mb’ama’areo ao vaho tsy hahatsake mb’ama’ay mb’etoy ka ty boak’ ey.
and besides all these things, between us and you a great chasm is fixed, so that they who are willing to go over from here to you are not able, nor do they pass through from there to us.
27 Le hoe re: Aa naho izay ry raeko, mihalaly ama’o: ampihitrifo mb’ añ’ anjomban-draeko mb’eo,
And he said, I ask, then, father, that you may send him to the house of my father,
28 fa lime ty rahalahiko hitaroñañe, tsy mone ho avy am-peh’ ohatse atoy.
for I have five brothers, so that he may thoroughly testify to them, that they also may not come to this place of torment.
29 Aa hoe t’i Abraàme tama’e: Am’ iareo t’i Mosè naho o Mpitokio; ampitsendreño.
Abraham says to him, They have Moses and the prophets, let them hear them;
30 Le hoe ka re: Aiy! ry aba Abraàme; fa naho mb’ am’ iereo mb’eo ty mivañom-beloñe, le tsi-mete tsy hisoloho.
and he said, No, father Abraham, but if anyone from the dead may go to them, they will convert.
31 Hoe re tama’e: Naho tsy haoñe’ iereo t’i Mosè naho o Mpitokio, le tsy hahafiato ka ndra te eo ty mivañom-beloñe boak’ an-kavilasiy.
And he said to him, If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded if one may rise out of the dead.”
