Luqaas 10
1 Kana booddee Gooftaan namoota biraa 72 muudee gara magaalaawwanii fi lafa ofii dhaquuf ture hundaatti lama lamaan of dura isaan erge.
After these things, the Lord appointed also seventy others, and sent them two and two before him into every city and place where he himself was about to come.
2 Akkanas isaaniin jedhe; “Midhaan walitti qabamu baayʼee dha; hojjettoonni garuu muraasa. Kanaaf akka Gooftaan midhaan sanaa gara lafa qotiisaa midhaan isaatti hojjettoota erguuf isa kadhadhaa.
And he said to them, The harvest is great, but the laborers are few. Pray therefore the Lord of the harvest to send forth laborers for his harvest.
3 Deemaa! Ani akka ilmoolee hoolaa gara gidduu yeeyyiitti isin erga.
Go forth; lo! I send you as lambs into the midst of wolves.
4 Borsaa yookaan korojoo yookaan kophee hin qabatinaa; karaa irrattis nama tokko illee nagaa hin gaafatinaa.
Carry no purse, no bag, no sandals; salute no one by the way.
5 “Yeroo mana tokko seentanitti dursaatii, ‘Nagaan mana kanaaf haa taʼu’ jedhaa.
And into whatever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house.
6 Yoo namni nagaa achi jiraate, nagaan keessan isaaf taʼa; yoo kanaa achii nagaan keessan isiniif deebiʼa.
And if a son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it; if not, it shall return to you.
7 Waan isaan isinii kennan hunda nyaachaa, dhugaas achuma turaa; hojjetaaf mindaa isaa argachuun ni malaatii. Manaa gara manaatti hin labinaa.
And abide in the same house, eating and drinking such things as they give; for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house.
8 “Yeroo magaalaa tokko seentanii simatamtanitti waanuma isinii dhiʼaate nyaadhaa.
And into whatever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat what is set before you,
9 Dhukkubsattoota achi jiran fayyisaatii, ‘Mootummaan Waaqaa isinitti dhiʼaateera’ jedhaa isaanitti himaa.
and heal the sick that are therein, and say to them, The kingdom of God hath come near to you.
10 Yoo magaalaa tokko seentanii isin simachuu baatan garuu gara daandii magaalaatti baʼaatii akkana jedhaa;
But into whatever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go out into its streets and say,
11 ‘Nu akka akeekkachiisa isinii taʼuuf awwaara magaalaa keessanii illee miilla keenya irraa dhadhaʼanna. Taʼus waan kana beekaa: Mootummaan Waaqaa dhiʼaateera.’
Even the dust of your city that cleaveth to our feet we wipe off to you; but know this, that the kingdom of God hath come near.
12 Ani isinittin hima; gaafas magaalaa sana irra Sodoomiif ni salphata.
And I tell you, that it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.
13 “Yaa Koraaziin siif wayyoo! Yaa Beetisayidaa siif wayyoo! Hojiin dinqii kan isin keessatti hojjetame sun utuu Xiiroosii fi Siidoonaa keessatti hojjetamee jiraatee isaan silaa yeroo dheeraan dura uffata gaddaa uffatanii, daaraa keessas tataaʼanii qalbii jijjiirratu turan.
Woe to thee, Chorazin! woe to thee, Bethsaida! for if the miracles that were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would long ago have repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
14 Garuu guyyaa murtiitti isin irra Xiiroosii fi Siidoonaaf ni salphata.
But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment, than for you.
And thou, Capernaum! shalt thou be exalted to heaven? thou shalt be brought down to the underworld. (Hadēs g86)
16 “Namni isin dhagaʼu kam iyyuu na dhagaʼa; namni isin dhagaʼuu didu anas dhagaʼuu dida; namni na dhagaʼuu didu immoo isa na erge sana dhagaʼuu dida.”
He that hearkeneth to you, hearkeneth to me; and he that rejecteth you, rejecteth me; but he that rejecteth me, rejecteth him that sent me.
17 Namoonni torbaatamii lamaan sunis gammachuudhaan deebiʼanii, “Yaa Gooftaa, hafuuronni hamoon iyyuu maqaa keetiin nuu ajajamaniiru” jedhan.
And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject to us in thy name.
18 Yesuusis deebisee akkana jedhe; “Ani utuu Seexanni akkuma balaqqeetti samii irraa buʼuu nan arge.
And he said to them, I saw Satan fall from heaven like lightning.
19 Kunoo, ani akka isin bofaa fi torbaanqabaa lafatti dhidhiittanii fi akka humna diinaa hundas moʼattaniif aangoo isinii kenneera; wanni kam iyyuu isin hin miidhu.
Lo! I have given you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the might of the enemy; and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
20 Garuu sababii maqaan keessan samii keessatti barreeffameef gammadaa malee sababii hafuuronni isinii ajajamaniif hin gammadinaa.”
Yet rejoice not in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice that your names have been written in heaven.
21 Yesuus yeroo sana Hafuura Qulqulluudhaan gammachuun guutamee akkana jedhe; “Yaa Abbaa, Gooftaa samiitii fi lafaa, sababii ati wantoota kanneen ogeeyyii fi hubattoota jalaa dhoksitee daaʼimmanitti mulʼifteef ani sin galateeffadha. Eeyyee yaa Abbaa, ati waan kana gochuutti gammaddeertaatii.
In that hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that, though thou didst hide these things from the wise and discerning, thou didst reveal them to babes. Yea, Father, for so it seemed good in thy sight. And turning to the disciples he said,
22 “Abbaan koo waan hunda dabarsee natti kenneera. Abbaa malee namni tokko iyyuu Ilmi eenyu akka taʼe hin beeku; Ilmaa fi nama Ilmi isa itti mulʼisuu fedhu malee namni tokko iyyuu Abbaan eenyu akka taʼe hin beeku.”
All things were delivered to me by my Father; and no one knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom it is the will of the Son to reveal him.
23 Barattoota isaattis garagalee kophaatti akkana jedheen; “Iji waan isin argitan argu eebbifamaa dha.
And turning to the disciples, he said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye are seeing.
24 Ani isinittin himaatii raajonnii fi mootonni baayʼeen waan isin argitan kana arguu barbaadan; garuu hin argine. Waan isin dhageessan kanas dhagaʼuu barbaadan; garuu hin dhageenye.”
For I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which ye are seeing, and saw them not; and to hear the things which ye are hearing, and heard them not.
25 Gaaf tokko, hayyuun seeraa tokko Yesuusin qoruuf jedhee kaʼee dhaabate. Innis, “Yaa Barsiisaa, ani jireenya bara baraa dhaaluudhaaf maal gochuun qaba?” jedhee gaafate. (aiōnios g166)
And lo! a certain lawyer stood up to try him, saying, Teacher, what shall I do to inherit everlasting life? (aiōnios g166)
26 Yesuusis deebisee, “Seera keessatti maaltu barreeffame? Atis akkamitti dubbifta?” jedheen.
And he said to him, What is written in the Law? How readest thou?
27 Namichis, “‘Waaqa kee Goofticha garaa kee guutuudhaan, lubbuu kee guutuudhaan, humna kee guutuudhaan, yaada kee guutuudhaan jaalladhu; ollaa kees akkuma ofii keetiitti jaalladhu’” jedhee deebise.
And he answering said “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself.”
28 Yesuusis, “Sirriitti deebifteerta; atis kanuma godhi ni jiraattaa” jedheen.
And he said to him, Thou hast answered rightly; do this, and thou shalt live.
29 Namichi sun garuu qajeelaa of gochuu barbaadee, “Ollaan koo eenyu?” jedhee Yesuusin gaafate.
But he, wishing to justify himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbor?
30 Yesuusis deebisee akkana jedhe; “Namichi tokko utuu Yerusaalemii baʼee Yerikootti gad buʼaa jiruu harka saamtotaa seene. Isaanis uffata isaa irraa baafatanii, tumanii, duʼaa fi jireenya gidduutti isa dhiisanii deeman.
Jesus answering said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among robbers; who after stripping him of his raiment, and wounding him, departed, leaving him half dead.
31 Lubni tokko utuu akkuma tasaa karaa sanaan gad buʼuu namicha argee irraa goree darbe.
And by chance a certain priest was going down on that road; and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
32 Akkasumas namichi gosa Lewwii tokko yommuu iddoo sana gaʼeetti namicha sana argee irraa goree darbe.
And in like manner also a Levite, having arrived at the place, came and saw, and passed by on the other side.
33 Namichi Samaariyaa tokko garuu utuu deemaa jiruu iddoo namichi sun jiru gaʼe; yommuu isa argettis garaa laafeef.
But a certain Samaritan, as he was journeying, came where he was, and when he saw him, had compassion,
34 Innis itti dhiʼaatee zayitii fi daadhii wayinii madaa isaatti naqee hidheef; harree isaa irras kaaʼee, mana boqonnaa keessummootaatti isa geesse; achittis isa gargaare.
and went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine, and setting him on his own beast, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
35 Guyyaa itti aanutti diinaarii lama baasee abbaa mana boqonnaa sanaatti kennee, ‘Namicha kana ittiin naa walʼaani; yoo kana caalaa baaftes ani yeroon deebiʼee dhufutti siifin kenna’ jedheen.
And the next day, he took out two denaries and gave them to the host, and said, Take care of him; and whatever thou spendest more, I, when I come back, will repay thee.
36 “Egaa jara sadan kanneen keessaa ollaan namicha harka saamtotaa seene sanaa isa kam seeta?”
Which of these three, dost thou think, was neighbor to him that fell among the robbers?
37 Hayyuun seeraa sunis, “Isa garaa laafeef sana” jedheen. Yesuusis, “Atis dhaqiitii akkasuma godhi” jedheen.
And he said, He that took pity on him. Then said Jesus to him, Go, and do thou likewise.
38 Utuu karaa deemaa jiranuu Yesuus ganda tokko seene; dubartiin Maartaa jedhamtu tokkos mana isheetti isa simatte.
And it came to pass, as they journeyed, that he entered into a certain village; and a certain woman, named Martha, received him into her house.
39 Isheenis obboleettii Maariyaam jedhamtu tokko qabdi turte; Maariyaamis miilla Gooftaa jala teessee waan inni jedhu dhaggeeffachaa turte.
And she had a sister called Mary, who sat down at the feet of the Lord, and listened to his word.
40 Maartaan garuu baayʼina hojiitiin waan dadhabaa turteef gara isaa dhuftee, “Yaa Gooftaa, obboleettiin koo akka ani hojii hunda kophaa koo hojjedhu natti dhiisuun ishee si hin gaddisiisuu? Akka isheen na gargaartu itti himi!” jette.
But Martha was cumbered about much serving; and she came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? Tell her therefore to help me.
41 Gooftaanis deebisee akkana jedheen; “Yaa Maartaa, yaa Maartaa, ati waaʼee waan baayʼee yaaddofta; ni raafamtas.
But the Lord answering said to her, Martha, Martha, thou art anxious and troubled about many things.
42 Wanni barbaachisu garuu waanuma tokko qofa; Maariyaam isa caalu filatteerti; innis ishee irraa hin fudhatamu.”
But one thing is needful. For Mary hath chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.
