Luqaas 19
1 Yesuus Yerikoo seenee achi keessa darbaa ture.
And he entered and passed through Jericho.
2 Namichi Zakkewoos jedhamu tokkos achi ture; innis hangafa warra qaraxa walitti qabaniitii fi sooressa ture.
And behold, [there was] a man by name called Zacchaeus, and he was chief tax-gatherer, and he was rich.
3 Innis Yesuus nama akkamii akka taʼe arguu barbaade; garuu gabaabaa waan tureef, sababii baayʼina namootaatiif isa arguu hin dandeenye.
And he sought to see Jesus who he was: and he could not for the crowd, because he was little in stature.
4 Yesuus waan karaa sana irra darbaa tureef, Zakkewoos isa arguuf jedhee fiigee dura darbee muka qilxuu tokko yaabe.
And running on before, he got up into a sycamore that he might see him, for he was going to pass that [way].
5 Yesuus yommuu iddoo sana gaʼetti ol milʼatee, “Yaa Zakkewoos, harʼa mana kee ooluun narra jiraatii dafii gad buʼi” jedheen.
And when he came up to the place, Jesus looked up and saw him, and said to him, Zacchaeus, make haste and come down, for to-day I must remain in thy house.
6 Innis yommusuma gad buʼee gammachuudhaan isa simate.
And he made haste and came down, and received him with joy.
7 Namoonni hundinuu yommuu waan kana arganitti, “Inni keessummaa ‘Nama cubbamaa’ taʼuu dhaqe!” jedhanii guungumuu jalqaban.
And all murmured when they saw [it], saying, He has turned in to lodge with a sinful man.
8 Zakkewoos garuu kaʼee dhaabatee Gooftaadhaan, “Yaa Gooftaa kunoo, ani walakkaa qabeenya koo hiyyeeyyiif nan kenna; ani yoon nama tokko illee gowwoomsee saamee jiraadhe, waanan fudhadhe sana harka afur godhee nan deebisa” jedhe.
But Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord, Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor, and if I have taken anything from any man by false accusation, I return [him] fourfold.
9 Yesuus deebisee akkana jedheen; “Namichi kunis waan ilma Abrahaam taʼeef, harʼa fayyinni mana kanaaf dhufeera.
And Jesus said to him, To-day salvation is come to this house, inasmuch as he also is a son of Abraham;
10 Ilmi Namaa isa bade barbaaduu fi fayyisuudhaaf dhufeetii.”
for the Son of man has come to seek and to save that which is lost.
11 Yesuusis utuma isaan waan kana dhagaʼaa jiranuu itti fufee, fakkeenya tokko isaanitti hime; kanas sababii inni Yerusaalemitti dhiʼaatee fi sababii namoonni waan mootummaan Waaqaa yeruma sana mulʼatu seʼaniif dubbate.
But as they were listening to these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was near to Jerusalem and they thought that the kingdom of God was about to be immediately manifested.
12 Innis akkana jedhe; “Namichi sanyii mootii tokko muudamee mootii taʼee deebiʼuuf biyya fagoo dhaqe.
He said therefore, A certain high-born man went to a distant country to receive for himself a kingdom and return.
13 Namichi sunis garboota isaa keessaa nama kudhan waamee, ‘Hamma ani deebiʼutti maallaqa kanaan daldalaa’ jedhee minnaanii kudhan isaanitti kenne.
And having called his own ten bondmen, he gave to them ten minas, and said to them, Trade while I am coming.
14 “Namoonni biyya isaa garuu isa jibbanii, ‘Akka namichi kun nurratti mootii taʼu hin feenu!’ jedhanii bakka buʼoota isaanii isa duubaan ergatan.
But his citizens hated him, and sent an embassy after him, saying, We will not that this [man] should reign over us.
15 “Innis erga muudamee mootii taʼee deebiʼee booddee garboonni inni maallaqa itti kennee ture sun ittiin daldalanii maal akka argatan beekuuf jedhee nama itti ergee isaan waamsise.
And it came to pass on his arrival back again, having received the kingdom, that he desired these bondmen to whom he gave the money to be called to him, in order that he might know what every one had gained by trading.
16 “Garbichi jalqabaa dhufee, ‘Yaa Gooftaa, minnaaniin kee minnaanii gara biraa kudhan dhaleera’ jedheen.
And the first came up, saying, [My] Lord, thy mina has produced ten minas.
17 “Gooftaan isaas deebisee, ‘Yaa garbicha gaarii, ati waan gaarii hojjette. Sababii ati waan akka malee xinnoo irratti amanamaa taateef, magaalaa kudhan irratti taayitaa qabaadhu’ jedheen.
And he said to him, Well [done], thou good bondman; because thou hast been faithful in that which is least, be thou in authority over ten cities.
18 “Garbichi lammaffaanis dhufee, ‘Yaa Gooftaa, minnaaniin kee minnaanii gara biraa shan dhaleera’ jedheen.
And the second came, saying, [My] Lord, thy mina has made five minas.
19 “Gooftaan isaas deebisee, ‘Atis magaalaa shan irratti moʼi’ jedheen.
And he said also to this one, And thou, be over five cities.
20 “Inni sadaffaan immoo dhufee akkana jedhe; ‘Yaa Gooftaa, minnaaniin kee kunoo ti; ani huccuudhaan maree dhokseen ture.
And another came, saying, [My] Lord, lo, [there is] thy mina, which I have kept laid up in a towel.
21 Ati gara jabeessa waan taateef ani sin sodaadhe; ati waan hin kaaʼatin fudhatta; waan hin facaasinis haammatta.’
For I feared thee because thou art a harsh man: thou takest up what thou hast not laid down, and thou reapest what thou hast not sowed.
22 “Gooftaan isaas deebisee akkana jedhe; ‘Yaa garbicha hamaa nana; ani dubbuma afaan keetiitiin sittin mura; ati akka ani nama dabaa waan hin kaaʼatin fudhatu, waan hin facaasinis haammatu taʼe beekta mitii?
He says to him, Out of thy mouth will I judge thee, wicked bondman: thou knewest that I am a harsh man, taking up what I have not laid down and reaping what I have not sowed.
23 Yoos akka ani yommuun deebiʼutti dhala isaa wajjin fudhadhuuf maaliif maallaqa koo mana baankii naa hin kaaʼin ree?’
And why didst thou not give my money to [the] bank; and I should have received it, at my coming, with interest?
24 “Gooftichis warra achi dhadhaabataniin, ‘Minnaanii sana isa harkaa fuudhaatii namicha minnaanii kudhan qabuuf kennaa’ jedhe.
And he said to those that stood by, Take from him the mina and give [it] to him who has the ten minas.
25 “Isaanis deebisanii, ‘Yaa Gooftaa, inni duraanuu minnaanii kudhan qaba’ jedhaniin.
And they said to him, Lord, he has ten minas.
26 “Inni immoo deebisee akkana jedhe; ‘Ani isinittin hima; kan qabu hundaafuu itti dabalamee ni kennama; kan hin qabne garuu wanni inni qabu iyyuu irraa fudhatama;
For I say unto you, that to every one that has shall be given; but from him that has not, that even which he has shall be taken from him.
27 diinota koo kanneen akka ani isaan irratti mootii taʼu hin barbaadin immoo as fidaatii fuula koo duratti isaan gogorraʼaa.’”
Moreover those mine enemies, who would not [have] me to reign over them, bring them here and slay [them] before me.
28 Yesuus erga waan kana dubbatee booddee Yerusaalemitti ol baʼuuf isaan dura deemaa ture.
And having said these things, he went on before, going up to Jerusalem.
29 Innis akkuma Beetfaagee fi Biitaaniyaa kanneen tulluu Gaara Ejersaa jedhamu biraa sanatti dhiʼaateen barattoota isaa keessaa lama erge;
And it came to pass as he drew near to Bethphage and Bethany at the mountain called [the mount] of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
30 akkanas isaaniin jedhe; “Gara ganda fuula keessan dura jiru sanaa dhaqaa; akkuma achi seentaniinis, ilmoo harree kan namni tokko iyyuu takkumaa hin yaabbatin tokko achitti hidhamee jiru ni argattu. Isa hiikaatii as fidaa.
saying, Go into the village over against [you], in which ye will find, on entering it, a colt tied up, on which no [child] of man ever sat at any time: loose it and lead it [here].
31 Yoo namni tokko iyyuu, ‘Isin maaliif hiiktu?’ jedhee isin gaafate, ‘Gooftaatu isa barbaada’ jedhaa.”
And if any one ask you, Why do ye loose [it]? thus shall ye say to him, Because the Lord has need of it.
32 Warri ergamanis dhaqanii waan hunda akkuma inni isaanitti himetti argatan.
And they that were sent, having gone their way, found as he had said to them.
33 Utuu isaan ilmoo harree sana hiikaa jiranuus warri harree sanaa, “Ilmoo harree kana maaliif hiiktu?” jedhanii isaan gaafatan.
And as they were loosing the colt, its masters said to them, Why loose ye the colt?
34 Isaanis, “Gooftaatu isa barbaada” jedhanii deebisan.
And they said, Because the Lord has need of it.
35 Ilmoo harree sanas Yesuusitti fidan; uffata isaaniis harree sana irra buusan; Yesuusinis irra teessisan.
And they led it to Jesus; and having cast their own garments on the colt, they put Jesus on [it].
36 Utuu inni deemuus namoonni uffata isaanii karaa irra afan.
And as he went, they strewed their clothes in the way.
37 Yeroo inni daandii Tulluu Ejersaa irraa gad buʼutti dhiʼaatettis, barattoonni hundi hojii dinqii arganii turan hundatti gammadanii, sagalee guddaan akkana jedhanii Waaqa galateeffachuu jalqaban.
And as he drew near, already at the descent of the mount of Olives, all the multitude of the disciples began, rejoicing, to praise God with a loud voice for all the works of power which they had seen,
38 “Mootiin maqaa Gooftaatiin dhufu eebbifamaa dha!” “Nagaan samii irratti, ulfinnis ol gubbaatti!”
saying, Blessed the King that comes in the name of [the] Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.
39 Namoota achi turan keessaas Fariisonni tokko tokko Yesuusiin, “Yaa Barsiisaa, barattoota kee ifadhu!” jedhan.
And some of the Pharisees from the crowd said to him, Teacher, rebuke thy disciples.
40 Innis deebisee, “Ani isinittin hima; yoo isaan calʼisan illee dhagoonni ni iyyu” jedheen.
And he answering said to them, I say unto you, If these shall be silent, the stones will cry out.
41 Yesuusis yommuu Yerusaalemitti dhiʼaatee magaalattii argetti ni booʼeef;
And as he drew near, seeing the city, he wept over it,
42 akkanas jedhe; “Utuu atumti waan harʼa nagaa siif kennu beektee gaarii ture! Amma garuu ija kee duraa dhokfameera.
saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, even at least in this thy day, the things that are for thy peace: but now they are hid from thine eyes;
43 Guyyoonni itti diinonni kee koobii sitti ijaaranii, si marsanii, karaa hundaanis baʼuu si dhowwan sitti ni dhufuutii.
for days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall make a palisaded mound about thee, and shall close thee around, and keep thee in on every side,
44 Diinonni siʼii fi ijoollee kee warra dallaa kee keessa jiraatan biyyootti maku. Isaan dhagaa tokko dhagaa kaan irratti hin dhiisan; ati yeroo itti Waaqni gara kee dhufu hin beekneetii.”
and shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children in thee; and shall not leave in thee a stone upon a stone: because thou knewest not the season of thy visitation.
45 Yesuus mana qulqullummaa seenee warra gurgurachaa turan ariʼuu jalqabe.
And entering into the temple, he began to cast out those that sold and bought in it,
46 Innis, “‘Manni koo mana kadhannaa taʼa’ jedhamee barreeffameera; isin garuu ‘Holqa saamtotaa’ gootaniirtu” isaaniin jedhe.
saying to them, It is written, My house is a house of prayer, but ye have made it a den of robbers.
47 Guyyuma guyyaanis mana qulqullummaa keessatti barsiisaa ture; luboonni hangafoonni, barsiistonni seeraatii fi dura buʼoonni sabaa garuu isa ajjeesuudhaaf jabeessanii barbaadaa turan.
And he was teaching day by day in the temple: and the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy him,
48 Taʼus isaan karaa ittiin isa ajjeesan hin arganne; namoonni hundinuu yaada tokkoon waan inni dubbate dhaggeeffachaa turaniitii.
and did not find what they could do, for all the people hung on him to hear.
