Luqaas 20
1 Gaaf tokko utuu Yesuus mana qulqullummaa keessatti namoota barsiisuu, utuu wangeelas lallabuu luboonni hangafoonnii fi barsiistonni seeraa maanguddoota wajjin gara isaa dhufan.
On one of those days, as he was teaching the people in the temple and proclaiming the Good News, the priests and scribes came to him with the elders.
2 Isaanis, “Ati akka taayitaa maaliitiin waan kana hojjettu nutti himi. Eenyutu taayitaa kana siif kenne” jedhan.
They asked him, “Tell us: by what authority do you do these things? Or who is giving you this authority?”
3 Innis akkana jedhee deebise; “Anis gaaffii tokkon isin gaafadha. Isin immoo natti himaa:
He answered them, “I also will ask you one question. Tell me:
4 Cuuphaan Yohannis samii irraa dhufe moo nama biraa dhufe?”
the immersion of Yochanan, was it from heaven, or from men?”
5 Isaanis waliin mariʼatanii akkana jedhan; “Yoo nu, ‘Samii irraa dhufe’ jenne inni immoo, ‘Isin maaliif isa hin amanin ree?’ jedhee nu gaafata.
They reasoned with themselves, saying, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ he will say, ‘Why didn’t you believe him?’
6 Yoo nu, ‘Nama biraa dhufe’ jenne garuu namoonni hundinuu akka Yohannis raajii taʼe waan amananiif dhagaadhaan nu tumu.”
But if we say, ‘From men,’ all the people will stone us, for they are persuaded that Yochanan was a prophet.”
7 Kanaaf isaan, “Inni eessaa akka dhufe nu hin beeknu” jedhan.
They answered that they didn’t know where it was from.
8 Yesuus immoo, “Anis taayitaa maaliitiin akkan waan kana hojjedhu isinitti hin himu” jedheen.
Yeshua said to them, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things.”
9 Innis akkana jedhee fakkeenya kana namootatti himuu jalqabe; “Namichi tokko iddoo dhaabaa wayinii irra wayinii dhaabbatee, qonnaan bultootatti kiraa kennatee biyya fagoo dhaqee yeroo dheeraa ture.
He began to tell the people this parable: “A man planted a vineyard and rented it out to some farmers, and went into another country for a long time.
10 Innis yeroo midhaan walitti qabamutti akka isaan ija iddoo dhaabaa wayinii irraa waa kennaniif garbicha tokko qottuuwwan sanatti ergate. Qottuuwwan sun garuu tumanii harka duwwaa of irraa isa deebisan.
At the proper season, he sent a servant to the farmers to collect his share of the fruit of the vineyard. But the farmers beat him and sent him away empty.
11 Innis garbicha biraa ergate; isaan garuu isas tumanii, qaanessaniis harka duwwaa of irraa isa deebisan.
He sent yet another servant, and they also beat him and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.
12 Amma illee garbicha sadaffaa ergate; isaan immoo isas madeessanii gad isa darbatan.
He sent yet a third, and they also wounded him and threw him out.
13 “Ergasii abbichi iddoo dhaabaa wayinii, ‘Maal gochuu naa wayya? Kaʼeen ilma koo jaallatamaa itti erga; tarii isa ni kabaju taʼaatii’ jedhe.
The lord of the vineyard said, ‘What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that seeing him, they will respect him.’
14 “Qottoonni sun garuu yommuu isa arganitti, ‘Dhaaltuun isa kana; kottaa isa ajjeefnaa; dhaalli sun kan keenya taʼaatii’ jedhanii walii wajjin dudubbatan.
“But when the farmers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.’
15 Kanaafuu isaan iddoo dhaabaa wayinii keessaa gad baasanii isa ajjeesan. “Egaa abbaan iddoo dhaabaa wayinii sanaa maal isaan godhinna laata?
Then they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do to them?
16 Inni dhufee qottuuwwan sana ni ajjeesa; iddoo dhaabaa wayinii sanas namoota biraatti kennata.” Namoonnis yommuu waan kana dhagaʼanitti, “Waaqni waan kana hin fidin!” jedhan.
He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.” When they heard that, they said, “May that never be!”
17 Yesuusis isaan ilaalee, akkana jedhe; “Egaa inni, “‘Dhagaan ijaartonni tuffatan dhagaa golee taʼeera jedhamee barreeffame maal jechuu isaati ree’?
But he looked at them and said, “Then what is this that is written, ‘The stone which the builders rejected was made the chief cornerstone’?
18 Namni dhagaa sana irratti kufu hundinuu caccabee bututa; namni dhagichi irratti kufu kam iyyuu ni daakama.”
Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, but it will crush whomever it falls on to dust.”
19 Barsiistonni seeraatii fi luboonni hangafoonni akka inni fakkeenya kana isaaniin mormuun dubbate waan beekaniif yeruma sana isa qabuu barbaadan. Garuu namoota sana sodaatan.
The chief priests and the scribes sought to lay hands on him that very hour, but they feared the people—for they knew he had spoken this parable against them.
20 Jarris isa gaadaa, akka isaan waan inni dubbatuun isa qabanii dabarsanii humnaa fi taayitaa bulchaatti isa kennaniif jedhanii basaastota nama nagaa of fakkeessan ergan.
They watched him and sent out spies, who pretended to be righteous, that they might trap him in something he said, so as to deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor.
21 Basaastonni sunis akkana jedhanii isa gaafatan; “Yaa Barsiisaa, nu akka ati waan qajeelaa dubbatuu fi waanuma qajeelaa barsiiftu, akkasumas akka ati dhugaadhaan karaa Waaqaa barsiisuu malee nama wal hin caalchifne beekna.
They asked him, “Rabbi, we know that you say and teach what is right, and aren’t partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God.
22 Qeesaariif gibira kaffaluun eeyyamameera moo hin eeyyamamne?”
Is it lawful for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”
23 Inni garuu haxxummaa isaanii argee akkana isaaniin jedhe;
But he perceived their craftiness, and said to them, “Why do you test me?
24 “Mee diinaarii tokko natti argisiisaa. Fakkii fi katabbii eenyuutu isa irra jira?” Isaanis, “Kan Qeesaar” jedhanii deebisan.
Show me a denarius. Whose image and inscription are on it?” They answered, “Caesar’s.”
25 Kana irratti inni, “Yoos kan Qeesaar Qeesaariif, kan Waaqaa immoo Waaqaaf kennaa” jedheen.
He said to them, “Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.”
26 Isaanis waan inni dubbateen fuula namootaa duratti isa qabuu hin dandeenye. Deebii isaas dinqisiifatanii calʼisan.
They weren’t able to trap him in his words before the people. They marveled at his answer and were silent.
27 Saduuqota duʼaa kaʼuun hin jiru jedhan keessaa tokko tokko waa gaafachuuf jedhanii gara Yesuus dhufan;
Some of the Sadducees came to him, those who deny that there is a resurrection.
28 akkanas jedhan; “Yaa Barsiisaa yoo obboleessi nama tokkoo niitii fuudhee utuu ijoollee hin dhalchin duʼe, akka namichi sun niitii sana dhaalee ijoollee dhalchee obboleessa isaatiif sanyii dabarsu Museen nuu barreesseera.
They asked him, “Rabbi, Moses wrote to us that if a man’s brother dies having a wife, and he is childless, his brother should take the wife and raise up children for his brother.
29 Kunoo obboloota torbatu ture. Inni hangafni niitii fuudhee ijoollee malee duʼe.
There were therefore seven brothers. The first took a wife, and died childless.
30 Inni lammaffaan,
The second took her as wife, and he died childless.
31 inni sadaffaanis ishee fuudhan; haaluma wal fakkaatuun isaan torbanuu utuu ijoollee hin dhalchin duʼan.
The third took her, and likewise the seven all left no children, and died.
32 Dhuma irratti dubartittiinis ni duute.
Afterward the woman also died.
33 Egaa guyyaa duʼaa kaʼuutti isheen niitii isa kamii taati? Torban isaanii iyyuu ishee fuudhaniiruutii.”
Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them will she be? For the seven had her as a wife.”
Yeshua said to them, “The children of this age marry and are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
35 Warri addunyaa dhufuuf jiruu fi duʼaa kaʼuu keessatti hirmaachuun isaanii malu garuu hin fuudhan; hin heerumanis. (aiōn g165)
But those who are considered worthy to attain to that age and the resurrection from the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage. (aiōn g165)
36 Isaan waan akka ergamootaa taʼaniif deebiʼanii hin duʼan; waan ijoollee duʼaa kaʼuu taʼaniifis isaan ijoollee Waaqaa ti.
For they can’t die any more, for they are like the angels and are children of God, being children of the resurrection.
37 Garuu Museen iyyuu seenaa waaʼee daggalaa keessatti akka warri duʼan duʼaa kaʼan argisiiseera; inni Gooftaadhaan, ‘Waaqa Abrahaam, Waaqa Yisihaaqii fi Waaqa Yaaqoob’jedhee waamaatii.
But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the bush, when he called the Lord ‘The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’
38 Inni Waaqa warra jiraataniiti malee Waaqa warra duʼanii miti; hundinuu isaaf jiraatoodhaatii.”
Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for all are alive to him.”
39 Barsiistota seeraa keessaa tokko tokko, “Yaa Barsiisaa, dhugaa jette!” jedhanii deebisan.
Some of the scribes answered, “Rabbi, you speak well.”
40 Namni tokko iyyuu deebiʼee gaaffii isa gaafachuuf ija hin jabaanne.
They didn’t dare to ask him any more questions.
41 Yesuusis akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Isaan akkamitti Kiristoosilma Daawit jechuu dandaʼu?
He said to them, “Why do they say that the Messiah is David’s son?
42 Daawit mataan isaa iyyuu kitaaba faarfannaa keessatti akkana jedha; “‘Gooftichi Gooftaa kootiin akkana jedhe; “Karaa mirga koo taaʼi;
David himself says in the scroll of Psalms, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand,
43 hamma ani diinota kee, ejjeta miilla keetii siif godhutti.”’
until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet.”’
44 Daawit ‘Gooftaa’ jedhee isa waama. Yoos inni akkamitti ilma isaa taʼuu dandaʼa ree?”
“David therefore calls him Lord, so how is he his son?”
45 Utuu namoonni hundinuu isa dhagaʼaa jiranuu, Yesuus barattoota isaatiin akkana jedhe;
In the hearing of all the people, he said to his disciples,
46 “Barsiistota seeraa irraa of eeggadhaa. Isaan uffata dhedheeraa uffatanii nanaannaʼuu fi gabaa keessattis nagaa gaafatamuu, manneen sagadaa keessatti taaʼumsa ulfinaa, lafa cidhaatti immoo iddoo ulfinaa jaallatu.
“Beware of those scribes who like to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the marketplaces, the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts;
47 Isaanis mana haadha hiyyeessaa saamanii onsu; of argisiisuuf jedhaniis kadhannaa dheeressu. Namoonni kunneen adaba guddaa adabamu.”
who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”
