Luqaas 19
1 Yesuus Yerikoo seenee achi keessa darbaa ture.
And Jesus having entred Jericho passed through the city,
2 Namichi Zakkewoos jedhamu tokkos achi ture; innis hangafa warra qaraxa walitti qabaniitii fi sooressa ture.
and behold, there was a man named Zaccheus, who was the chief publican, and very 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; but he could not for the croud; for he was little of stature.
4 Yesuus waan karaa sana irra darbaa tureef, Zakkewoos isa arguuf jedhee fiigee dura darbee muka qilxuu tokko yaabe.
And he ran before and got up into a sycamore-tree that he might see Him; for He was to pass by that way.
5 Yesuus yommuu iddoo sana gaʼetti ol milʼatee, “Yaa Zakkewoos, harʼa mana kee ooluun narra jiraatii dafii gad buʼi” jedheen.
And when Jesus came to the place, He looked up and saw him, and said to him, Zaccheus, make haste and come down; for to-day I must abide at 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 when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, He is gone to be guest with a wicked 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 Zaccheus stood up and said unto Jesus, Behold, Lord, the half of my substance I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any one wrongfully, I restore him fourfold.
9 Yesuus deebisee akkana jedheen; “Namichi kunis waan ilma Abrahaam taʼeef, harʼa fayyinni mana kanaaf dhufeera.
Then said Jesus, This day is salvation come to this house, for as much as he also is a son of Abraham.
10 Ilmi Namaa isa bade barbaaduu fi fayyisuudhaaf dhufeetii.”
For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was 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.
And as they listened to these things, He proceeded and spake a parable; because He was nigh to Jerusalem, and they thought that the kingdom of God would immediately be manifested.
12 Innis akkana jedhe; “Namichi sanyii mootii tokko muudamee mootii taʼee deebiʼuuf biyya fagoo dhaqe.
He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a distant country to receive the investiture of a kingdom and then to return.
13 Namichi sunis garboota isaa keessaa nama kudhan waamee, ‘Hamma ani deebiʼutti maallaqa kanaan daldalaa’ jedhee minnaanii kudhan isaanitti kenne.
And he called ten of his servants, and delivered to them ten pounds, and said, Trade with them till I come.
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 have this man to 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 when he was returned, having received the kingdom, he ordered these servants to be called to him, to whom he had delivered the money, that he might know what use each had made of it.
16 “Garbichi jalqabaa dhufee, ‘Yaa Gooftaa, minnaaniin kee minnaanii gara biraa kudhan dhaleera’ jedheen.
Then came the first and said, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.
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 servant, as thou hast been faithful in a very little, thou shalt be governor over ten cities.
18 “Garbichi lammaffaanis dhufee, ‘Yaa Gooftaa, minnaaniin kee minnaanii gara biraa shan dhaleera’ jedheen.
And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath produced five pounds:
19 “Gooftaan isaas deebisee, ‘Atis magaalaa shan irratti moʼi’ jedheen.
and he said to this likewise, Be thou also over five cities.
20 “Inni sadaffaan immoo dhufee akkana jedhe; ‘Yaa Gooftaa, minnaaniin kee kunoo ti; ani huccuudhaan maree dhokseen ture.
And another came, and said, Behold, my Lord, thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:
21 Ati gara jabeessa waan taateef ani sin sodaadhe; ati waan hin kaaʼatin fudhatta; waan hin facaasinis haammatta.’
for I was afraid of thee, because thou art an austere man, who takest up what thou didst not lay down, and reapest what thou didst not sow.
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?
But he said to him, Out of thy own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant, Thou knewest that I am an austere man, taking up what I laid not down, and reaping what I did not sow;
23 Yoos akka ani yommuun deebiʼutti dhala isaa wajjin fudhadhuuf maaliif maallaqa koo mana baankii naa hin kaaʼin ree?’
and why then didst thou not put my money into the bank, that when I came I might have received it with interest?
24 “Gooftichis warra achi dhadhaabataniin, ‘Minnaanii sana isa harkaa fuudhaatii namicha minnaanii kudhan qabuuf kennaa’ jedhe.
And he said to them that stood by, Take away the pound from him, and give it to him that hath the ten pounds.
25 “Isaanis deebisanii, ‘Yaa Gooftaa, inni duraanuu minnaanii kudhan qaba’ jedhaniin.
(And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds already: )
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 tell you, that to every one that hath shall be given; but from him that hath not, even what he seemingly hath shall be taken away.
27 diinota koo kanneen akka ani isaan irratti mootii taʼu hin barbaadin immoo as fidaatii fuula koo duratti isaan gogorraʼaa.’”
But those mine enemies, who would not have me to reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.
28 Yesuus erga waan kana dubbatee booddee Yerusaalemitti ol baʼuuf isaan dura deemaa ture.
And when He had said these things, He went forward, going up to Jerusalem.
29 Innis akkuma Beetfaagee fi Biitaaniyaa kanneen tulluu Gaara Ejersaa jedhamu biraa sanatti dhiʼaateen barattoota isaa keessaa lama erge;
And when He was nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount 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 opposite village, in which, at your entring, ye will find a colt tied, on which no man ever yet sat; loose him and bring him hither.
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 him? thus shall ye say unto him, The Lord hath need of him.
32 Warri ergamanis dhaqanii waan hunda akkuma inni isaanitti himetti argatan.
And they that were sent, went away and found it as He had told them.
33 Utuu isaan ilmoo harree sana hiikaa jiranuus warri harree sanaa, “Ilmoo harree kana maaliif hiiktu?” jedhanii isaan gaafatan.
But as they were untying the colt, the owners of it said to them, Why do ye untie the colt?
34 Isaanis, “Gooftaatu isa barbaada” jedhanii deebisan.
and they answered, The Lord hath need of him.
35 Ilmoo harree sanas Yesuusitti fidan; uffata isaaniis harree sana irra buusan; Yesuusinis irra teessisan.
And they brought him to Jesus: and throwing their garments upon the colt they set Jesus thereon.
36 Utuu inni deemuus namoonni uffata isaanii karaa irra afan.
And as He went along they spread their clothes under Him 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 when He was now come near to the foot of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples rejoicing began to praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works which they had seen,
38 “Mootiin maqaa Gooftaatiin dhufu eebbifamaa dha!” “Nagaan samii irratti, ulfinnis ol gubbaatti!”
saying, Blessed be the king that cometh 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 among the multitude said to Him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.
40 Innis deebisee, “Ani isinittin hima; yoo isaan calʼisan illee dhagoonni ni iyyu” jedheen.
And He answered them, I tell you, that if these were silent, the very stones would cry out.
41 Yesuusis yommuu Yerusaalemitti dhiʼaatee magaalattii argetti ni booʼeef;
And as He drew near, beholding 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, at lest in this thy day, the things relating to 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 the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast up a trench about thee, and surround thee, 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 to the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another: because thou didst not regard the time of thy visitation.
45 Yesuus mana qulqullummaa seenee warra gurgurachaa turan ariʼuu jalqabe.
And He went into the temple, and cast out those that were buying and selling in it,
46 Innis, “‘Manni koo mana kadhannaa taʼa’ jedhamee barreeffameera; isin garuu ‘Holqa saamtotaa’ gootaniirtu” isaaniin jedhe.
saying unto them, It is written, "my house is the house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves."
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 daily in the temple: but the chief priests and the scribes and the rulers 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 could not find how to effect it: for all the people were attentive to hear Him.
