Luqaas 16
1 Yesuus barattoota isaatiin akkana jedhe; “Namicha sooressa nama hojii isaa adeemsisuuf qabu tokkotu ture; akka hojii adeemsisaan sun qabeenya isaa jalaa balleessaa jirus sooressa sanatti himan.
And he sayde also vnto his disciples, There was a certaine riche man, which had a stewarde, and he was accused vnto him, that he wasted his goods.
2 Sooressi sunis hojii adeemsisaa sana ofitti waamee, ‘Wanni ani waaʼee kee dhagaʼu kun maalii? Ati siʼachi waan hojii adeemsisaa taʼuu hin dandeenyeef, hojii adeemsisaa turte sana irratti gabaasa naa dhiʼeessi’ jedheen.
And hee called him, and saide vnto him, Howe is it that I heare this of thee? Giue an accounts of thy stewardship: for thou maiest be no longer steward.
3 “Hojii adeemsisaan sunis garaa isaa keessatti akkana jedhe; ‘Waan gooftaan koo hojii keessaa na baasuuf, maal naa wayya? Lafa qotuuf humna hin qabu; kadhachuu immoo nan qaanaʼa.
Then the stewarde saide within himselfe, What shall I doe? for my master taketh away from me the stewardship. I cannot digge, and to begge I am ashamed.
4 Akka yeroo ani hojii keessaa ariʼamutti namoonni mana isaaniitti na simataniif waanan godhu anuu beeka.’
I knowe what I will doe, that when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receiue mee into their houses.
5 “Innis warra gatiin gooftaa isaa irra jiru tokko tokkoon waamee, isa jalqabaatiin, ‘Idaan gooftaa koo hammamitu sirra jira?’ jedhee gaafate.
Then called he vnto him euery one of his masters detters, and said vnto the first, Howe much owest thou vnto my master?
6 “Namichis, ‘Zayitii ejersaa hubboo dhibba saddeeti’ jedhee deebise. “Hojii adeemsisaan sunis, ‘Waraqaa walii galtee kee hooʼu; dafii taaʼiitii dhibba afur jedhii barreessi’ jedheen.
And he said, An hudreth measures of oyle. And he saide to him, Take thy writing, and sitte downe quickely, and write fiftie.
7 “Isa lammaffaadhaanis, ‘Sirra immoo hammamitu jira?’ jedhee gaafate. “Innis, ‘Qamadii guuboo kuma tokkoo’ jedheen. “Hojii adeemsisaan sunis, ‘Waraqaa walii galtee kee hooʼuutii, 80 jedhii barreessi’ jedheen.
Then said he to another, How much owest thou? And hee sayde, An hundreth measures of wheate. Then he saide to him, Take thy writing, and write foure score.
8 “Hojii adeemsisaan hin amanamne sun waan abshaala taʼeef gooftichi isa jaje; namoonni addunyaa kanaa warra akka isaanii wajjin haajaa isaanii guutachuu irratti namoota ifaa caalaa abshaalotaatii. (aiōn g165)
And the Lord commended the vniust stewarde, because he had done wisely. Wherefore the children of this worlde are in their generation wiser then the children of light. (aiōn g165)
9 Ani isinittin hima; akka isaan yeroo qabeenyi sun dhumutti mana bara baraatti isin simataniif qabeenya addunyaatiin ofii keessaniif michoota horadhaa. (aiōnios g166)
And I say vnto you, Make you friends with the riches of iniquitie, that when ye shall want, they may receiue you into euerlasting habitations. (aiōnios g166)
10 “Namni waan xinnootti amanamu kam iyyuu waan baayʼeettis ni amanama; namni waan xinnootti hin amanamne kam iyyuu immoo waan baayʼeettis hin amanamu.
He that is faithfull in the least, hee is also faithful in much: and he that is vniust in the least, is vniust also in much.
11 Yoos isin yoo qabeenya addunyaatti hin amanamne, qabeenya dhugaatti immoo eenyutu isin amana ree?
If then ye haue not ben faithful in the wicked riches, who wil trust you in the true treasure?
12 Yoo isin qabeenya nama biraa irratti hin amanamne, qabeenya mataa keessanii immoo eenyutu isinii kenna ree?
And if ye haue not bene faithfull in another mans goods, who shall giue you that which is yours?
13 “Namni gooftota lama tajaajiluu dandaʼu tokko iyyuu hin jiru. Isa tokko jibbitee isa kaan jaallattaatii; yookaan isa tokkoof of kennitee isa kaan immoo tuffatta. Isinis Waaqaa fi maallaqa tajaajiluu hin dandeessan.”
No seruaunt can serue two masters: for either he shall hate the one, and loue the other: or els he shall leane to the one, and despise the other. Yee can not serue God and riches.
14 Fariisonni warri maallaqa jaallatan waan kana hunda dhagaʼanii Yesuusitti qoosan.
All these thinges heard the Pharises also which were couetous, and they scoffed at him.
15 Innis akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Isin warra fuula namootaa duratti qajeeltota of gootanii dha; Waaqni garuu garaa keessan beeka. Wanni nama biratti akka malee kabajamu fuula Waaqaa duratti jibbisiisaadhaatii.
Then he sayde vnto them, Yee are they, which iustifie your selues before men: but God knoweth your heartes: for that which is highly esteemed among men, is abomination in the sight of God.
16 “Seerrii fi raajonni hamma Yohannisitti labsaman. Yeroo sanaa jalqabee wangeelli mootummaa Waaqaa lallabamaa jira; namni hundinuus itti galuuf wal dhiiba.
The Lawe and the Prophets endured vntill Iohn: and since that time the kingdome of God is preached, and euery man preasseth into it.
17 Seera keessaa tuqaan hundumaa gadii dhabamuu irra samii fi lafti dhabamuutu salphata.
Nowe it is more easie that heauen and earth shoulde passe away, then that one title of the Lawe should fall.
18 “Namni niitii isaa hiikee dubartii biraa fuudhu kam iyyuu ejja raawwata; namni dubartii dhirsa ishee hiikte fuudhus ejja raawwata.
Whosoeuer putteth away his wife, and marieth another, committeth adulterie: and whosoeuer marieth her that is put away from her husband, committeth adulterie.
19 “Namicha sooressa uffata dhiilgee haphii kan quncee talbaa irraa hojjetame uffatee, guyyuma guyyaan qananiidhaan jiraatu tokkotu ture.
There was a certaine riche man, which was clothed in purple and fine linnen, and fared well and delicately euery day.
20 Karra isaa dura immoo namichi hiyyeessi Alʼaazaar jedhamu kan dhagni isaa hundi mammadaaʼe tokko ciisaa ture.
Also there was a certaine begger named Lazarus, which was laide at his gate full of sores,
21 Innis hambaa maaddii sooressa sanaa irraa harcaʼu illee nyaachuu ni kajeela ture; saroonni iyyuu dhufanii madaa isaa arraabu turan.
And desired to bee refreshed with the crommes that fell from the riche mans table: yea, and the dogges came and licked his sores.
22 “Gaaf tokko namichi hiyyeessi sun duunaan ergamoonni Waaqaa isa baatanii gara bobaa Abrahaamitti isa geessan; sooressichis duʼee awwaalame.
And it was so that the begger died, and was caried by the Angels into Abrahams bosome. The rich man also died, and was buried.
23 Utuu Siiʼool keessatti dhiphachaa jiruus ol milʼatee Abrahaamin fagootti, Alʼaazaarin immoo bobaa Abrahaam keessatti arge. (Hadēs g86)
And being in hell in torments, he lift vp his eyes, and sawe Abraham a farre off, and Lazarus in his bosome. (Hadēs g86)
24 Innis iyyee, ‘Yaa Abbaa koo Abrahaam, waan ani ibidda kana keessatti dhiphachaa jiruuf maaloo garaa naa laafiitii akka inni fiixee quba isaa bishaan keessa cuuphee arraba koo naa qabbaneessuuf Alʼaazaarin naa ergi’ jedheen.
Then he cried, and saide, Father Abraham, haue mercie on mee, and sende Lazarus that hee may dippe the tip of his finger in water, and coole my tongue: for I am tormented in this flame.
25 “Abrahaam garuu akkana jedhee deebise; ‘Yaa ilma ko, ati bara jireenya keetiitti waan gaarii akka argatte, Alʼaazaar immoo waan hamaa akka argate yaadadhu; amma garuu asitti isatti toleera; ati immoo dhiphachaa jirta.
But Abraham saide, Sonne, remember that thou in thy life time receiuedst thy pleasures, and likewise Lazarus paines: now therefore is he comforted, and thou art tormented.
26 Waan kana hunda irrattis, akka warri nu biraa gara keessan dhufuu barbaadan dhufuu hin dandeenyeef yookaan akka warri isin biraa gara keenyatti ceʼuu hin dandeenyeef nuu fi isin gidduu boolla guddaatu jira.’
Besides all this, betweene you and vs there is a great gulfe set, so that they which would goe from hence to you, can not: neither can they come from thence to vs.
27 “Dureessi sunis akkana jedhee deebise; ‘Yoos yaa Abbaa, akka ati gara mana abbaa kootti Alʼaazaarin naa ergitu sin kadhadha;
Then he said, I pray thee therfore, father, that thou wouldest sende him to my fathers house,
28 ani obboloota shan qabaatii; akka isaanis iddoo dhiphinaa kana hin dhufneef inni dhaqee isaan haa akeekkachiisu.’
(For I haue fiue brethren) that he may testifie vnto them, least they also come into this place of torment.
29 “Abrahaam garuu, ‘Isaan Musee fi raajota qabu; isaanuma haa dhagaʼan’ jedhe.
Abraham said vnto him, They haue Moses and the Prophets: let them heare them.
30 “Dureessichis, ‘Akkas miti; yaa abbaa koo Abrahaam; yoo warra duʼan keessaa namni tokko gara isaanii dhaqe garuu, isaan qalbii ni jijjiirratu’ jedheen.
And he sayde, Nay, father Abraham: but if one came vnto them from the dead, they will amend their liues.
31 “Abrahaamis, ‘Isaan yoo Musee fi raajota hin dhageenye, yoo namni tokko warra duʼan keessaa kaʼe illee hin amanan’ jedheen.”
Then he saide vnto him, If they heare not Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rise from the dead againe.
