Luka 16
1 O Isus vaćarda pe sikadenđe kaja paramič: “Jekhe barvale manuše sasa jekh upravitelji savo vodila leso barvalipe. Le tužisade kaj xalja leso barvalipe.
Jesus said to his disciples, ‘There was a rich man who had a steward; and this steward was maliciously accused to him of wasting his estate.
2 Golese o barvalo akharda le thaj vaćarda lese: ‘So šunav kava tutar? Sikav manđe o đinipe tare ćiri bući pe mingro barvalipe, golese kaj našti vadži pe mingro barvalipe te ave upravitelji.’
So the master called him and said “What is this that I hear about you? Give in your accounts, for you cannot act as steward any longer.”
3 Tegani o upravitelji vaćarda ane peste: ‘So ka ćerav? O barvalo gospodari mingro ka lol mandar i bući. Naj man zuralipe te hunav thaj ladžav te mangav.
“What am I to do,” the steward asked himself, “now that my master is taking the steward’s place away from me? I have not strength to dig, and I am ashamed to beg.
4 Džanav so ka ćerav te primin man savore ane pe čhera kana ka ačhav bizi bući.’
I know what I will do, so that, as soon as I am turned out of my stewardship, people may welcome me into their homes.”
5 Thaj dija vika sa kolen save sesa lese gospodarese dužna thaj pučlja e anglune: ‘Kobor duguji mingre gospodarese?’
One by one he called up his master’s debtors. “How much do you owe my master?” he asked of the first.
6 Vov phenda: ‘Šel bačve taro maslinsko ulje.’ Tegani o upravitelji vaćarda lese: ‘Le ćiro lil, beš thaj sigate pisi pinda.’
“Four hundred and forty gallons of oil,” answered the man. “Here is your agreement,” he said; “sit down at once and make it two hundred and twenty.”
7 Pale gova pučlja e dujtone: ‘A tu, kobor duguji?’ Vov phenda: ‘Šel mere điv.’ Thaj vaćarda lese: ‘Le ćiro lil thaj pisi ohtovardeš.’
And you, the steward said to the next, “how much do you owe?” “Seventy quarters of wheat,” he replied. “Here is your agreement,” the steward said; “make it fifty-six.”
8 Tegani o barvalo gospodari hvalisada pe xoxavne upravitelje, kobor si džanglo so gija ćerda. Čače, e manuša tare kava sveto po snalažljivo postupin premal kola save si slična lenđe thaj si po džangle, nego e manuša e svetlose. (aiōn g165)
His master complimented this dishonest steward on the shrewdness of his action. And indeed men of the world are shrewder in dealing with their fellow men than those who have the light. (aiōn g165)
9 Thaj me vaćarav tumenđe: so isi tumen barvalipe kale svetoso, upotrebin le te ćeren tumenđe amalen. Kana ni ka avol tumenđe više korisno o barvalipe kale svetoso, ka aven primime ane čhera sa e đivesenđe ano nebo. (aiōnios g166)
And I say to you “Win friends for yourselves with your dishonest money,” so that, when it comes to an end, there may be a welcome for you into the Eternal Home. (aiōnios g166)
10 Ko si verno ane cikne buća, vov ka avol verno i ane pobare buća; thaj ko naj verno ane cikne buća, vov ni ka avol verno ni ane pobare buća.
The person who is trustworthy in the smallest matter is trustworthy in a great one also; and the person who is dishonest in the smallest matter is dishonest in a great one also.
11 Gijate, te naj sen verna ano barvalipe kale svetoso, ko ka dol tumen čačukano barvalipe?
So, if you have proved untrustworthy with the dishonest money, who will trust you with the true?
12 Te naj sen verna ane avereso barvalipe, ko ka dol tumen tumaro?
And, if you have proved untrustworthy with what does not belong to us, who will give you what is really our own?
13 Nijekh sluga našti služil tari jekh drom duje gospodaren. Il jekhe ka mrzi, a dujtone ka manđe; il jekhe ka šune, a e dujtone ni ka šune. Našti služin thaj e Devle thaj o barvalipe.”
No servant can serve two masters, for, either they will hate one and love the other, or else they will attach themselves to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.’
14 Sa kava šunde i e fariseja, save sesa pohlepna parenđe, thaj marde muj e Isusesa.
All this was said within hearing of the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, and they began to sneer at Jesus.
15 O Isus phenda lenđe: “Tumen ćeren tumen pravedna angle manuša, al o Dol džanol tumare ile. So si vredno ane manušenđe jakha, si gadno ane Devlese jakha.”
‘You,’ said Jesus, ‘are the ones who justify themselves before the world, but God can read your hearts; and what is highly esteemed among people may be an abomination in the sight of God.
16 Tegani o Isus vaćarda: “E Mojsijaso zakon thaj e lila save pisisade e prorokura, sikljona sa dži kaj o Jovane o Krstitelj ni avilo. Od tegani propovedil pe o Lačho Lafi taro Carstvo e Devleso thaj savore den zor te džan ane leste.
The Law and the prophets sufficed until the time of John. Since then the good news of the kingdom of God has been told, and everybody has been forcing their way into it.
17 Al gova ni značil kaj o Zakon više ni vredil, golese so poločhe si te načhen o nebo thaj i phuv, nego jekh slovo andaro Zakon te properol.
It would be easier for the heavens and the earth to disappear than for one stroke of a letter in the Law to be lost.
18 Dži jekh savo mučhol pe romnja thaj lol avera, preljuba ćerol; thaj savo lol džuvlja sava lako rom mukhlja, preljuba ćerol.”
Everyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman is an adulterer, and the man who marries a divorced woman is an adulterer.
19 O Isus vaćarda vadži jekh paramič: “Sasa jekh barvalo manuš. Sasa urado ane barvale šeja thaj živisada ano barvalipe, but xalja thaj pilja svako đive.
There was once a rich man, who dressed in purple robes and fine linen, and feasted every day in great splendour.
20 Angle leso vudar pašljola jekh phumbalo – sasa čoro thaj sasa le but čirura – leso alav sasa Lazar.
Near his gateway there had been laid a beggar named Lazarus, who was covered with sores,
21 Vov čeznila te čaljol e troškendar so perena tare barvaleso astali. Čak thaj e džukle avena thaj čarena lese phumba.
and who longed to satisfy his hunger with what fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.
22 Kana mulo o čoro, e anđelura inđarde le ani angali e Avraamese. Thaj posle i o barvalo mulo thaj prahosade le.
After a time the beggar died, and was taken by the angels to be with Abraham. The rich man also died and was buried.
23 Ano than kaj si e mule, ane bare muke, o barvalo vazdija pe jakha thaj odural dikhlja e Lazare ani angali e Avraamese. (Hadēs g86)
In Hades he looked up in his torment, and saw Abraham at a distance and Lazarus at his side. (Hadēs g86)
24 Thaj dija vika: ‘Dade Avraame! Smilui tut pe mande thaj bičhal e Lazare te čhuvol piro naj ano paj, te šudarol mingri čhib, golese kaj sem but mučimo ane kaja jag.’
So he called out “Pity me, Father Abraham, and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am suffering agony in this flame.”
25 Al o Avraam phenda: ‘Čhaveja! De tut gođi kaj ane ćiro džuvdipe sasa tut sa šukar, a e Lazare sa bilačhipe. Akana lese kate si šukar, a tu muči tut.
“Child,” answered Abraham, “remember that you in your lifetime received what you thought desirable, just as Lazarus received what was not desirable; but now he has his consolation here, while you are suffering agony.
26 Thaj prekale sa gova, maškare amende si bari provalija. Kola save manđen te načhen katar odori tumende, našti; ni gothar te načhen amende.’
And not only that, but between you and us there lies a great chasm, so that those who wish to pass from here to you cannot, nor can they cross from there to us.”
27 Tegani vaćarda o barvalo manuš: ‘Moliv tut, dade Avraame, te bičhale e Lazare ano čher mingre dadeso.
“Then, Father,” he said, “I beg you to send Lazarus to my father’s house
28 Golese kaj isi man pandž phrala. Nek vaćarol lenđe te ne bi i von avena ke kava than e mučimaso.’
where I have five brothers, to warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torture.”
29 O Avraam phenda lese: ‘Len isi e Mojsijaso zakon thaj e lila save pisisade e prorokura. Len nek šunen.’
“They have the writings of Moses and the prophets,” replied Abraham. “Let them listen to them.”
30 Al o barvalo vaćarda lese: ‘Na, dade Avraame! Te avilo lenđe khoni tare mule, ka pokajin pe.’
“But, Father Abraham,” he urged, “if someone from the dead were to go to them, they would repent.”
31 O Avraam phenda lese: ‘Te ni šunde e Mojsija thaj e prorokuren, ni ka šunen ni te uštilo khoni tare mule.’”
“If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets,” answered Abraham, “they will not be persuaded, even if someone were to rise from the dead.”’
