Luqaas 11
1 Gaaf tokko Yesuus iddoo tokkotti kadhachaa ture; yommuu inni fixatettis, barattoota isaa keessaa namni tokko, “Yaa Barsiisaa, akkuma Yohannis barattoota isaa barsiise sana, atis kadhachuu nu barsiisi” jedheen.
And as He was praying in a certain retired place, as soon as He had done, one of his disciples said to Him, Lord, teach us to pray as John also taught his disciples.
2 Innis akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Isin yommuu kadhattan akkana jedhaa: “‘Yaa Abbaa, maqaan kee haa qulqullaaʼu; mootummaan kee haa dhufu.
And He said unto them, when ye pray, say, "Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done as in heaven so also upon earth;
3 Buddeena keenya kan guyyuma guyyaa, guyyuma guyyaan nuu kenni.
give us day by day our daily bread; and forgive us our sins,
4 Akkuma nus warra cubbuu nutti hojjetaniif dhiifnu sana atis cubbuu keenya nuu dhiisi; qoramatti nu hin galchin.’”
for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one."
5 Innis akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Mee isin keessaa namni tokko michuu qaba haa jennuu; innis halkan walakkaa michuu isaa sana bira dhaqee, ‘Yaa michuu ko, mee buddeena sadii naa liqeessi;
And He said unto them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go to him at midnight, and say to him, Friend, lend me three loaves; for a friend of mine on his journey is come to me,
6 michuun koo kan karaa deemu tokko natti goreeraatii; anis waanan dhiʼeessuuf tokko illee hin qabu’ haa jedhu.
and I have nothing to set before him:
7 Namichi mana keessaa sunis, ‘Na hin rakkisin; balballi cufameera; ijoolleen koos na wajjin siree irra jiru; ani kaʼee waan tokko illee siif kennuu hin dandaʼu’ jedhaanii?
and he from within shall answer and say, Do not be troublesome; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed, I cannot rise to give thee.
8 Ani isinittin hima; sababii inni michuu isaa taʼeef jedhee kaʼee buddeena sana isaaf kennuu baatu illee, sababii ija jabina namicha sanaatiif jedhee kaʼee waan isa barbaachisu hunda ni kennaaf.
I tell you, tho' he will not rise and give him, because he is his friend: yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as he wants.
9 “Kanaafuu ani isinittin hima: Kadhadhaa, isiniif ni kennamaa; barbaadaa, ni argattuu; rurrukutaa, balballi isiniif ni banamaa.
And so I tell you, Ask and it shall be given you, seek and ye shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto you.
10 Namni kadhatu hundi ni argataatii; namni barbaadu ni argata; nama rurrukutuufis balballi ni banama.
For every one that asketh receiveth, and he that seeketh findeth, and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
11 “Yaa abbootii, isin keessaa namni yoo ilmi isaa qurxummii isa kadhate, qooda qurxummii bofa kennuuf eenyu?
If a son ask bread of any father among you, will he give him a stone? and if he ask for a fish, will he instead of a fish give him a serpent? or if he ask for an egg,
12 Yookaan namni yoo ilmi isaa hanqaaquu isa kadhate torbaanqabaa kennuuf eenyu?
will he give him a scorpion?
13 Erga isin warri hamoon iyyuu kennaa gaarii ijoollee keessaniif kennuu beektanii, Abbaan keessan inni samii irraa immoo hammam caalchisee warra isa kadhataniif Hafuura Qulqulluu haa kennuu ree!”
If ye then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your heavenly Father give the holy Spirit to them that ask Him?
14 Yesuusis hafuura hamaa arrab-didaa taʼe tokko baasaa ture. Yommuu hafuurri hamaan sun baʼetti arrab-didaan sun ni dubbate; namoonnis ni dinqifatan.
And He was casting out a demon, and it was dumb: and when the demon was gone out, the dumb man spake; and the people wondered.
15 Isaan keessaa namoonni tokko tokko garuu, “Inni Biʼeelzebuuliin, hangafa hafuurota hamootiin hafuurota hamoo baasaa jira” jedhan.
But some of them said, He casteth out demons by Beelzebub the prince of demons:
16 Warri kaan immoo mallattoo samii irraa isa gaafachuudhaan isa qoran.
and others, to try Him, desired of Him a sign from heaven.
17 Yesuusis yaada isaanii beekee akkana jedheen; “Mootummaan gargar of qoodu kam iyyuu ni diigama; manni gargar of qoodus ni jiga.
But He who well knew their thoughts, said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself becomes desolate, and a house against a house falleth: if Satan also be divided against himself,
18 Seexanni yoo gargar of qoode, mootummaan isaa akkamitti dhaabachuu dandaʼa? Wanni ani akkana jedhuuf sababii isin akka waan ani Biʼeelzebuuliin hafuurota hamoo baasuu dubbattaniif.
how shall his kingdom stand? because ye say, that I cast out demons by Beelzebub.
19 Egaa yoo ani Biʼeelzebuuliin hafuurota hamoo baasee, ilmaan keessan immoo maaliin baasu ree? Kanaafuu isaan abbootii murtii isinitti taʼu.
And if I by Beelzebub cast out demons, by whom do your own people cast them out? wherefore they shall be your judges.
20 Garuu ani quba Waaqaatiin hafuurota hamoo baasa taanaan, yoos mootummaan Waaqaa isinitti dhufeera.
But if I cast out demons by the power of God, you may be sure the kingdom of God is come unto you:
21 “Yommuu namni jabaan guutummaatti miʼa lolaa hidhate tokko mana isaa eeggatutti, qabeenyi isaa nagaadhaan taaʼaaf.
for when a strong man well-armed defends his palace, his substance is secure:
22 Garuu namni jabinaan isa caalu tokko yoo lolee isa moʼate, miʼa lolaa kan namichi sun amanate sana isa irraa fudhatee boojuu isaas qoqqooda.
but when a stronger than he cometh upon him and conquers him, he taketh away his armour, wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils.
23 “Namni na wajjin hin jirre kam iyyuu naan morma; namni na wajjin walitti hin qabne kam iyyuus ni bittinneessa.
He, that is not with me, is against me; and he, that gathereth not with me, scattereth.
24 “Hafuurri xuraaʼaan yommuu nama keessaa baʼutti, boqonnaa barbaacha lafa gogaakeessa joora; garuu hin argatu. Innis, ‘Mana koo isa ani keessaa baʼe sanatti nan deebiʼa’ jedha.
When an impure spirit is gone out of a man, he wanders through dry desert places, seeking rest: and finding none he saith, I will return into my house, that I came out of;
25 Yommuu achi gaʼuttis manicha haramee qulqulleeffamee argata.
and when he cometh he findeth it swept and set in order.
26 Ergasiis dhaqee hafuurota biraa torba kanneen isa caalaa hamoo taʼan fudhatee dhufa; isaanis itti galanii achi jiraatu. Haalli namicha sanaa kan dhumaa isa jalqabaa caalaa hammaata.”
Then he goeth and taketh with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and so the last state of that man is worse than the first.
27 Utuu Yesuus waan kana dubbachaa jiruu, dubartiin tokko namoota gidduudhaa sagalee ishee ol fudhattee, “Garaan si baate, harmi ati hootes eebbifamaa dha” jette.
As He was speaking these things, a certain woman lifted up her voice from amidst the croud, and said, Happy is the womb that bare thee, and the breasts which thou didst suck!
28 Inni garuu deebisee, “Kana caalaa iyyuu, warri dubbii Waaqaa dhagaʼanii ajajamaniif eebbifamoo dha” jedhe.
but He replied, Yea rather happy are they, that hear the word of God and keep it.
29 Akkuma baayʼinni namootaa dabalameen Yesuus akkana jedhe; “Dhaloonni kun dhaloota hamaa dha. Inni mallattoo barbaada; garuu mallattoo Yoonaas malee mallattoon tokko iyyuu isaaf hin kennamu.
And when the multitudes were gathering thick together He began to say, This is a wicked generation: they demand a sign, but no sign shall be given them, except that of the prophet Jonah:
30 Akkuma Yoonaas mallattoo saba Nanawwee ture sana, Ilmi Namaas mallattoo dhaloota kanaa ni taʼaatii.
for as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so shall also the Son of man be to this generation.
31 Mootittiin kibbaa guyyaa murtiitti namoota dhaloota kanaa wajjin kaatee isaanitti murti; isheen ogummaa Solomoon dhagaʼuuf jettee daarii lafaatii dhufteetii. Kunoo kan Solomoonin caalu as jira.
The queen of the south shall rise up in the day of judgement against the men of this generation and condemn them: for she came from the remote parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold a greater than Solomon is here.
32 Namoonni Nanawwee guyyaa murtiitti dhaloota kana wajjin kaʼanii itti muru; isaan lallaba Yoonaasiin qalbii jijjiirrataniitii; kunoo kan Yoonaasin caalu as jira.
And the men of Nineveh shall rise up in the judgement against this generation, and condemn it; for they repented upon the preaching of Jonas, and behold a greater than Jonas is here.
33 “Namni kam iyyuu ibsaa qabsiisee iddoo hin mulʼanne yookaan gombisaa jala hin kaaʼu. Qooda kanaa akka warri ol seenan ifa isaa arganiif baattuu isaa irra kaaʼu.
But yet no one having lighted a candle putteth it into a secret place, nor under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they who come in may see the light.
34 Iji kee ibsaa dhagna keetii ti. Iji kee fayyaa taanaan, dhagni kee guutuun ifaan guutama. Yoo iji kee fayyaa hin taʼin garuu dhagni kees dukkanaan guutama.
The eye is the candle of the body: therefore when thine eye is clear, thy whole body also is light; but when it is bad, thy body also is dark.
35 Kanaafuu akka ifni si keessaa dukkana hin taaneef of eeggadhu.
Take heed therefore least the light which is in thee be darkness.
36 Egaa yoo dhagni kee hundinuu ifaan guutame, yoo kutaan tokko iyyuu dukkana hin qabaatin, akkuma waan ifni ibsaa tokkoo ifa isaatiin siif ibsuutti dhagni kee guutummaatti ifa ni qabaata.”
For if thy whole body be light, having no part dark, it will be (when all enlightened) as when a candle giveth thee light by its brightness.
37 Akkuma Yesuus haasaa isaa fixateen Fariisota keessaa namichi tokko akka Yesuus isa wajjin nyaata nyaatuuf mana isaatti isa waame; Yesuusis ol seenee maaddiitti dhiʼaate.
And as He spake, a certain pharisee asked Him to dine with him: and He went in and sat down at table.
38 Fariisichi garuu akka Yesuus nyaataan dura hin dhiqatin argee dinqisiifate.
And when the pharisee saw it he wondered that He did not wash first, before dinner.
39 Gooftaanis akkana isaan jedhe; “Isin Fariisonni duuba xoofootii fi caabii ni qulqulleessitu; keessi keessan garuu saamichaa fi hamminaan guutameera.
But the Lord said unto him, ye pharisees clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but your inward part is full of rapine and wickedness.
40 Yaa namoota gowwoota! Inni duuba isaa uume sun keessa isaa immoo hin uumnee?
Senseless creatures! Did not He who made the outside, make also that which is within? give alms rather according to your ability:
41 Isin garuu waan xoofoo fi caabii keessa jiru hiyyeeyyiif kennaa; yoos wanni hundinuu isinii qulqullaaʼaa.
and behold all things are clean to you.
42 “Fariisota nana isiniif wayyoo! Isin insilaala, cilaaddaamaa fi biqiltuu gosa hundaa kudhan keessaa tokko Waaqaaf ni kennitu; murtii qajeelaa fi jaalala Waaqaa garuu ni tuffattu. Silaa utuu isa duraa hin dhiisin isa booddee hojii irra oolchuu qabdu ture.
But wo unto you pharisees, who tithe even your mint, and rue, and all your herbs, and pass by judgement and the love of God: these ought ye to practise and not to omit the others.
43 “Yaa Fariisota, isiniif wayyoo! Isin manneen sagadaa keessatti taaʼumsa ulfinaa, gabaa keessattis nagaa gaafatamuu jaallattu.
Wo unto you pharisees; for ye love the chief seat in synagogues, and salutations in public places.
44 “Isin sababii awwaala mallattoo hin qabne kan namoonni utuu hin beekin irra deeman fakkaattaniif isinii wayyoo!”
Wo unto you scribes and pharisees, hypocrites; for ye are like graves that do not appear, and those that walk over them are not aware of them.
45 Hayyoota seeraa keessaas tokko deebisee, “Yaa Barsiisaa, ati yommuu waan kana jettutti nuus arrabsaa jirta!” jedheen.
And one of the doctors of the law answered and said unto Him, Master, in saying these things thou reproachest us also.
46 Yesuus immoo akkana jedhee deebise; “Hayyoota seeraa, isiniifis wayyoo! Isin baʼaa namni baachuu hin dandeenye isaanitti feetu; ofii keessanii garuu isaan gargaaruudhaaf qubaan illee hin tuqxan.
And He said, Wo unto you also, ye interpreters of the law, for ye load men with insupportable burthens, and ye yourselves touch not the burthens with one of your fingers.
47 “Isiniif wayyoo! Isin raajotaaf awwaala ijaartuutii; kan isaan ajjeeses abbootuma keessan.
Wo unto you; who build the sepulchres of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
48 Kanaafuu isin akka waanuma abbootiin keessan hojjetan sana deeggartan dhugaa baatu; isaan raajota ajjeesan; isin immoo awwaala raajotaa ijaartu.
Thus ye testify that ye approve of the deeds of your fathers; for they put them to death, and ye build their sepulchres.
49 Sababii kanaaf Waaqni ogummaa isaatiin, ‘Ani raajotaa fi ergamoota isaanittin erga; namoonni sunis isaan keessaa tokko tokko ni ajjeesu; kaan immoo ni ariʼatu’ jedhe.
And therefore the wisdom of God hath said, I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they will kill and persecute:
50 Kanaaf dhaloonni kun dhiiga raajota hundaa kan uumama addunyaatii jalqabee dhangalaʼetti ni gaafatama;
that the blood of all the prophets which has been shed from the foundation of the world may be required of this generation, from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah,
51 dhiiga Abeel irraa jalqabee hamma dhiiga Zakkaariyaas isa iddoo aarsaatii fi mana qulqullummaa gidduutti ajjeefame sanaatti ni gaafatama. Eeyyee ani isinittin hima; dhaloonni kun waan kana hundumatti ni gaafatama.
who perished between the altar and the temple. Verily I tell you, it shall be required of this generation.
52 “Yaa hayyoota seeraa, isiniif wayyoo! Isin furtuu beekumsaa fudhattaniirtu. Ofii keessanii hin seenne; warra seenaa turanis dhowwitaniirtu.”
Wo unto you interpreters of the law; for ye have taken away the key of knowledge, ye entered not in yourselves, and those that were entering in, ye hindered.
53 Yommuu Yesuus achii deemetti, Fariisonnii fi barsiistonni seeraa jabeessanii isaan mormuu, akka inni waan baayʼee dubbatuufis isa tuttuquu jalqaban.
As He was saying these things unto them the scribes and pharisees began vehemently to attack Him, and urge Him to speak of many things,
54 Waan afaan isaatii baʼuun isa qabuufis eeggachaa turan.
laying snares for Him, and endeavouring to catch something out of his mouth, that they might accuse Him.
