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 said also to his disciples, There was a certain rich man who had a steward; and the same was accused to him that he had wasted 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 he called him, and said to him, How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship: for thou mayest be no longer steward.
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.
Then the steward said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord taketh from me the stewardship: I cannot 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 am resolved what to do, that when I am removed from the stewardship, they may receive me into 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?
So he called every one of his lord's debtors, and said to the first, How much owest thou 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, A hundred measures of oil. And he said to him, Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and 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.
Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, A hundred measures of wheat. And he said to him, Take thy 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 unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light. (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 of the mammon of unrighteousness; that when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations. (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 that is faithful in that which is least, is faithful also in much; and he that is unjust in the least, is unjust also in much.
11 Aa naho tsy malili-po amo vara tsy vokatseo nahareo, ia ty hampamandroñe anahareo o vente’eo.
If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true [riches]?
12 Le ie tsy vañoñe ami’ty vara’ ondaty, ia ty hanolots’ anahareo ty anahareo?
And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who will give you that which is 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 can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
14 Ie nahajanjiñe i hoe zay o Fariseoo, kanao mpitea-drala, le nikizak’ aze.
And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things, and they derided 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, Ye are they who justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men, is abomination in the sight of 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 [were] until John: since that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth 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 heaven and earth to pass away, than one tittle of the law to fail.
18 Ze mañary valy hañenga ty hafa ro mañarapilo; vaho mañarapilo ka ty mañenga rakemba narian-dahy.
Whoever putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery; and whoever marrieth her that is put away from [her] husband, committeth adultery.
19 Teo ty mpañaleale, mpisaron-tsarimbo malò-mavo naho leny matify, niaiñañoleñañe an-kafalefaleañe handro an-kandro.
There was a certain rich man, who was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:
20 Teo ka ty rarake atao Lazarosy, atseke bae, nakonenak’ añ’ila’ ty lalambei’e eo,
And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, who was laid at his gate, 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 fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover, the dogs came and licked 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 beggar died, and was carried by angels into Abraham's bosom. 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 in hell he lifted up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar 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 he cried, and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue: for I am tormented 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.
But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy life-time receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
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 this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they who would pass from hence to you, cannot; neither can they pass to us, that [would come] from thence.
27 Le hoe re: Aa naho izay ry raeko, mihalaly ama’o: ampihitrifo mb’ añ’ anjomban-draeko mb’eo,
Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldst send him to my father's house:
28 fa lime ty rahalahiko hitaroñañe, tsy mone ho avy am-peh’ ohatse atoy.
For I have five brethren; that he may testify to them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
29 Aa hoe t’i Abraàme tama’e: Am’ iareo t’i Mosè naho o Mpitokio; ampitsendreño.
Abraham saith 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 one shall go to them from the dead, they will repent.
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 hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one shall rise from the dead.
