Lukas 6
1 Lao esa, nandaa no atahori Yahudi ra fai hahae tao ues na, Yesus no mana tungga nara laoꞌ tungga atahori osin. Boe ma ana mana tungga nara oru are-gandum mbuleꞌ, mana sia mata nara. Basa ma raisi de raa.
One (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest), while Jesus was walking through some grain fields with his disciples, the disciples picked some of the heads of grain. They rubbed them in their hands [to separate the grains from the husks], and ate the grain. [The law of Moses permitted people to do that if they were hungry].
2 Sia naa, hambu atahori hira mia partei Farisi toꞌu rahereꞌ hohoro-lalane adat Yahudi. Rita Yesus ana mana tungga nara tao taꞌo naa, boe ma ara oꞌolaꞌ E rae, “Taꞌo bee de Ana mana tungga mara ralena-langga hai hohoro-lalane agama ma? Ara tao ues nandaa no fai hahae aoꞌ! Mete se sini nae! Ara oru are-gandum. Afiꞌ taꞌo naa!’.
Some Pharisees [who were watching] said to Jesus, “(You should not be doing on our rest day [work] that [our] laws forbid!/Why are you doing on our rest day [work] that our laws forbid?)” [RHQ]
3 Te Yesus olaꞌ nae, “Ona bee, ee? Hei nda misinedꞌa baꞌi Daud dudꞌuit na sa do? Baꞌi Daud no ana mana tungga nara ambu nara korororoꞌ huu ndoe rala seli ena. Boe ma ara risiꞌ lala hule-oꞌeꞌ rala reu, de haꞌi roti fo malangga agama ra fee neu Lamatuaꞌ ena, de raa. Tao-tao te akaꞌ malangga agama ra fo bole raa roti naa. Atahori laen hokoꞌ. Baꞌi Daud se raa, te nda hambu atahori fee salaꞌ neu se sa. Hei onaꞌ nda baca mita Lamatualain Susura Meumaren sa!
[Jesus wanted to show them that the record in Scriptures indicated that God permitted people to disobey certain religious laws when they needed food]. [So] he replied, “[It is written in the Scriptures] what [our revered ancestor, King] David did when he and the men with him were hungry. You have read about that, ([but you do not think about what it implies/so why do you not think about what it implies]?) [RHQ]
David entered God’s big worship tent [and asked for some food]. [The high priest gave him] the bread that the priests had presented to God. It was permitted [in] one of [Moses’ laws] that only the priests could eat that bread. But [even though David was not a priest], he ate some, and gave some to the men who were with him. [And God did not consider that what David did was wrong]!”
5 Pasa ndiki mara fo rena malolole! Au ia, Atahori Matetuꞌ a. Au uꞌena hak uꞌetuꞌ, atahori bisa tao saa, nandaa no fai hahae tao ues.”
Jesus also said to them, “[I am] the one who came from heaven, so [I] have the authority [to determine what is right for my disciples to do on] the day of rest!”
6 Faiꞌ sa, nandaa no fai hahae tao ues esa fai, Yesus neu nanori mia ume hule-oꞌeꞌ. Sia naa, hambu touꞌ sa liman seri maꞌamateꞌ.
Another (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest) Jesus entered a (synagogue/Jewish meeting place) and taught the people. There was a man there whose right hand was shriveled.
7 Sia naa o, hambu meser agama hira ro atahori mia partei agama Farisi mana sangga slak fo rae raꞌatutudaꞌ Yesus. De ara mamakuꞌ a mete ma Ana nae tao nahaiꞌ atahori lima maꞌamate seseriꞌ a, nandaa no fai hahae tao ues. No taꞌo naa, ara ratudꞌu salan sia naa neuꞌ a ena.
The men who taught the [Jewish] laws and the Pharisees [who were there] watched Jesus, to see if he would heal the man (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day). They did this so that, [if he healed the man], they would accuse him [of disobeying their laws by working on the day of rest].
8 Te Yesus nahine masud nara ena. Naa de Ana noꞌe atahori lima maꞌamate seseriꞌ a nae, “Aꞌa, e! Uma mumburiiꞌ sia taladꞌaꞌ ia, dei!” Boe ma ana neu nambariiꞌ memaꞌ.
But Jesus knew what they were thinking. So he said to the man with the shriveled hand, “Come and stand here [in front of everyone]!” So the man got up and stood there.
9 Basa ma Yesus natane atahori naa ra nae, “Au utane sobꞌa nggi, dei. Tungga hita hohoro-lalane agaman, hita bisa tao saa nandaa no fai hahae tao ues? Hita tao maloleꞌ do, tao deꞌulakaꞌ? Ata fee masodꞌaꞌ neu atahori, do tao nembelulutu masodꞌa nara?”
Then Jesus said to the others, “I ask you this: Do the laws that [God gave Moses] permit [people] to do what is good (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day), or [do they permit people] to harm [others]? [Do they permit us] to save [a person’s] life [on our day of rest] or to let [him] die [HYP] [by refusing to help him]?”
10 Boe ma Yesus mete rereoꞌ se, de Ana olaꞌ no atahori lima mana maꞌamate seseriꞌ a nae, “Loo limam!” Ana o loo, ma liman hai neuꞌ ena boe.
[They refused to answer him. So] after he looked around at them all, he said to the man, “Stretch out your [shriveled] hand!” The man did that, and his hand became all right again!
11 Rita taꞌo naa, ma Yesus musu nara ramanasa seli. De ara ator dalaꞌ rae, “Ata musi sangga dalaꞌ laen, fo taꞌatutudꞌaꞌ E!”
But the men who taught the Jewish laws and the Pharisees were very angry, and they discussed with one another what they could do to [get rid of] Jesus.
12 Nda doꞌ sa fai, ma Yesus nisiꞌ leteꞌ sa de hule-oꞌe. Ana hule-oꞌe tetembaꞌ sa temeao sia naa.
About that time [Jesus] went up into the hills to pray. He prayed to God all night.
13 Mbila fefetu anan, ma Ana noꞌe nala ana mana tungga nara. Mia basa se, Ana tengga nala atahori sanahulu rua dadꞌi neu dedꞌenun. Atahori fo Ana tenggaꞌ ra, naeni:
The next day he summoned all his disciples to come near him. From them he chose twelve men, whom he called apostles.
14 Simon (fo Yesus noꞌe nae ‘Petrus’), Anderias (Simon odꞌin), Yakobis, Yohanis (Yakobis odꞌin), Filipus Bartolomeos,
They were Simon, to whom he gave the [new] name, Peter; Andrew, Peter’s [younger] brother; James and [his younger brother], John; Philip; Bartholomew;
15 Mateos, Tomas, Yakobis (Alpius anan), Simon (mana tungga partei poletik Selot),
Matthew, whose other name was Levi; Thomas; [another] James, the [son] of Alpheus; Simon, who belonged to the party [that encouraged people to] rebel [against the Roman government];
16 Yudas (Yakobis anan), ma Yudas Iskariot (mana seo hendi Yesus).
Judas, the [son] of [another] James; and Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]), the one who later (betrayed Jesus./enabled the Jewish leaders to seize Jesus.)
17 Leleꞌ onda mia leteꞌ a, Yesus no ana mana tungga nara rambariiꞌ mia rae tetuꞌ. Sia naa o, atahori hetar raꞌabꞌue. Ara, rema mia profinsi Yudea, mia kota Yerusalem, mia Tirus no Sidꞌon, kota karuaꞌ ia ra sia tasi suun.
[Jesus] came down from the hills with his disciples and stood on a level area. There was a very big crowd of his disciples there. There was also a large group of people who had come from Jerusalem and from many [other] places [in] Judea [district], and from the coastal areas near Tyre and Sidon [cities].
18 Ara rema rae rena Yesus, ma hambu ruma rae roꞌe E fo Ana naꞌahahaiꞌ atahori mamahedꞌi ra. Boe ma Ana tao nahaiꞌ se. Ana o naꞌahahaiꞌ atahori nitu taoꞌ ra, ma use-oi nitu mia atahori naa ra.
They came to hear Jesus talk to them and to be healed {and for him to heal them} from their diseases. He also healed those whom evil spirits had troubled.
19 Basa atahori rae nggama E, huu mete ma ara nggama dai E, na, hambu koasa kalua mia E fo tao nahaiꞌ se.
Everyone [in the crowd] tried to touch him, because he was healing everyone by [his/God’s] power.
20 Basa ma Yesus heoꞌ mbali ana dedꞌenu nara, de nanori nae, “Atahori mana tudꞌa-loloeꞌ re! Hei onton, huu Lamatualain mesaꞌ ne, hei Mane malolem.
He looked [MTY] at his disciples and said, “[God] is pleased with you [who know] that you lack what [he wants you to have; ] he will allow you to be the people whose lives he rules over.
21 Atahori mana ndoeꞌ re! Hei onton, huu dei fo Lamatualain fee nggi miꞌibeta. Atahori mana nggae luu-mbinu no rala susaꞌ re! Hei onton, huu, dei fo rala mara ramahoꞌo.
[God] is pleased with you who sincerely desire to receive what [MTY] [he wants you to have]; he will give you what you need, until you are satisfied. [God] is pleased with you that grieve now [because of sin]. Later you will be joyful.
22 Atahori mana hambu doidꞌosoꞌ huu tungga Au, Atahori Matetuꞌ ia! Hei onton, huu dei fo Lamatuaꞌ bala-bꞌae nggi sia sorga. Onaꞌ mae atahori mburu-oeꞌ ro nggi, do tao maꞌafoo nara malole mara, ma tabꞌu-roroo nggi do, use-oi nggi onaꞌ atahori deꞌulakaꞌ o, hei onton, huu dei fo Lamatuaꞌ nasanedꞌa nggi sia sorga. De mete ma atahori tao raꞌasususaꞌ nggi taꞌo naa, o, tao rala mara ramahoꞌo a! No maꞌahee! Afi heran, te atahori mana tao raꞌasususaꞌ hei aleꞌ ia, bei-baꞌi nara mana tao doidꞌoso Lamatualain mana ola-ola maꞌahulu nara. De mete ma hei hambu sususaꞌ mataꞌ naa, tao rala mara mimihoꞌo, huu dei fo Lamatuaꞌ bala-bꞌae nggii naen seli sia sorga.
[God] is pleased with you when [other] people hate you, when they will not let you join them, when they insult you, when they say that you are evil because [you believe in] me, the one who came from heaven.
When that happens, rejoice! Jump up and down because you are so happy! [God will give] you a great reward in heaven! [When they do these things to you, it will prove that you are God’s servants]. (OR, [People have always treated God’s servants like that].) Do not forget that these people’s ancestors did the same things to the prophets [who served God faithfully]!
24 Te atahori mamasuꞌi re! Hei soe, huu hei masodꞌa nemehoꞌot ma, losaꞌ ia ena.
But there will be terrible punishment for you that are rich; the happiness you have received [from your riches] is the only happiness that you will get.
25 Atahori maꞌabetaꞌ re! Hei soe, huu dei fo hei hambu fai ndoes manaseliꞌ Atahori mana kidꞌo-kedꞌe leliꞌ re! Hei soe, huu susa-sonaꞌ a nema tao nggi nggae luu-mbinu.
There will be terrible punishment for you who [think that you] have all that you need now; you will [realize] that these things will not make you feel satisfied. There will be terrible punishment for you who are joyful now; you will [later] be very sad.
26 Atahori mana maꞌahe hadꞌa-hormat re! Hei soe, huu maꞌahulun bei-baꞌi mara, koa-boꞌu mana ola-olaꞌ ombo-koson ra!
When most [HYP] people speak well about you, trouble is ahead for you; [it will not prove that you are God’s servants, because] your ancestors used to speak well about those who falsely [claimed that they were] prophets.”
27 Boe ma Yesus olaꞌ nakandoo nae, “Pasa ndikim fo rena malolole! Musi sue musu mara, ma tao dꞌala maloleꞌ neu atahori mana mburu-oeꞌ ro nggo.
“But I say this to each of you [disciples] who are listening [to what I say]: Love your enemies [as well as your friends]. Do good things for those who hate you!
28 Hule-oꞌe moꞌe Lamatualain tao dꞌala maloleꞌ fee neu atahori mana sumba-ndon nggo. Ma moꞌe Ana tao dꞌala maloleꞌ fee neu atahori mana fua salaꞌ mata-mataꞌ neu nggo.
[Ask God to] bless those who curse you! Pray for those who mistreat you!
29 Mete ma atahori mbasa nasum seri, na, soro fo ana mbasa nasum seri fai. Mete ma hambu atahori rambas nala badꞌu matobꞌim, na, fee badꞌum neu e boe.
If someone [insults one of you by] striking you on one of your cheeks, turn your face [so that he can strike] the other cheek [also]. If [a bandit] wants to take away your [(sg)] coat, let him also have your shirt.
30 Mete ma hambu atahori roꞌe sudꞌiꞌ a sa ma esa, na, fee neuꞌ ena. Boe ma mete ma ana haꞌi nendi saa ma esa, na, hela neu fo ana hambu e leo. Afiꞌ muu moꞌe baliꞌ e fai!
Give something to everyone who asks you [(sg) for something]. If someone takes away things that belong to you [(sg)], do not ask him to return them.
31 Musi tao atahori ra, onaꞌ saa fo ho mae fee se tao neu nggo boe.
In whatever way you [(pl)] want others to act toward you, that is the way that you should act toward them.
32 Ho hiiꞌ a mutudꞌu susueꞌ neu atahori mara. Naa maloleꞌ. Te naa, lenan, sa? Huu atahori deꞌulakaꞌ ra o sue atahori nara boe!
If you love [only] those who love you, do not [expect God] to praise you for [doing that] [RHQ], [because] even sinners love those who love them.
33 Mete ma taoꞌ a maloleꞌ neu akaꞌ atahori mana tao maloleꞌ neu nggo, naa lenan saa? Huu atahori deꞌulakaꞌ ra o bala-bꞌae maloleꞌ no maloleꞌ taꞌo naa boe.
If you do good things [only] for those who do good things for you, do not [expect God] to reward you [for doing that] [RHQ], [because] even sinners do that.
34 Mete ma ho fee pindan doi ma neu akaꞌ atahori mana bisa fee baliꞌ, na, naa lenan sa? Huu atahori deꞌulaka ra o fee pindan doi nara reu atahori feaꞌ ra boe, sadꞌi mbila do fini esan, na, ara simbo baliꞌ manadaiꞌ.
If you lend [things or money only] to those who you expect will give something back to you, do not [expect that God] will reward you [RHQ] [for doing that]. Even sinners lend to other sinners, because they expect them to pay everything back.
35 Te manaselin, taꞌo ia: Sue musu mara! Ma tao dꞌala maloleꞌ fee se. Saa fo ara parlu, na, fee pindan. Afiꞌ dꞌuꞌa-dꞌuꞌaꞌ mae, ara fee baliꞌ, do hokoꞌ. No taꞌo naa, dei fo Lamatualain bala-bꞌae baliꞌ nggo. Boe ma dadꞌi muu Lamatualain Mana Seliꞌ anan. Huu masodꞌam onaꞌ Amam mana hiiꞌ a tao maloleꞌ fee atahori deꞌulakaꞌ ra. Ana o tao maloleꞌ neu atahori mana nda rahine roꞌe makasi sa.
Instead, love your enemies! Do good things for them! Lend to them, and do not expect them to pay anything back! [If you do that, God will give] you a big reward. And you will be [acting like] his children [should]. Remember that God is kind to people who are not grateful and to people who are wicked, [and he expects you to be like that too].
36 Dadꞌi musi mutudꞌu susueꞌ neu atahori, onaꞌ Amam mana sia sorga natudꞌu susueꞌ neu nggo.
Act mercifully toward others, just like your Father [in heaven acts] mercifully [toward you].”
37 Yesus nanori nakandoo nae, “Afiꞌ nile leli atahori, fo atahori afiꞌ nile leli nggo boe. Afiꞌ fua salaꞌ neu atahori, fo atahori afiꞌ fua salaꞌ neu nggo boe. Fee ambon neu atahori sala nara, naa fo ara o fee ambon neu sala mara boe.
“Do not say how sinfully others have acted, and then [God] will not say how sinfully you have acted. Do not condemn others, and then [he] will not condemn you [DOU]. Forgive others [for the evil things that they have done to you], and then [God] will forgive you.
38 Mete ma ho fee atahori saa fo ara parlu, na, dei fo ho o simbo boe. Huu dei fo Lamatuaꞌ mete-seꞌu nggo fo simbo naeꞌ lenaꞌ fai. Naa onaꞌ atahori ombo fufue naen seli nisiꞌ balek uꞌukuꞌ rala neu, de nggonggonggar e ma ndeni e, fo ombo nesofe seluꞌ e losa mbori rae neu. Ho simboꞌ a nanaen onaꞌ naa boe. Mete ma ho fee mbeiꞌ a, na ho simbo bꞌaliꞌ mbeiꞌ a boe. Te mete ma ho fee naeꞌ na, ho o simbo baliꞌ nanaen seli boe.”
Give [good things to others], and then [God] will give [good] things to you. It will be [as though] [MET] [God is putting things in a basket] for you. He will give you a full amount, pressed down in the basket, which he will shake [so that he can put more in], and it will spill over the sides! [Remember that] the way you act [toward others] will be the way that [God] will act toward you!”
39 Yesus o nanori nendiꞌ nekendandaaꞌ boe. Ana dui nae, “Atahori pokeꞌ nda bisa natudꞌu dalaꞌ fee atahori pokeꞌ sa. Te hokoꞌ naa ruꞌa se tudꞌa ndolaꞌ rala reu!
He also told [his disciples] this parable [to show them that they should be like him, and not be like the Jewish religious leaders]: “(You certainly would not [expect] a blind man to lead another blind man./Would you [expect] a blind man to lead [another] blind man?) [RHQ] If he tried to do [that], (they would both probably fall into a hole!/wouldn’t they both probably fall into a hole?) [RHQ] [I am your teacher, and you disciples should be like me].
40 Ana sakolaꞌ nda mahineꞌ lenaꞌ meser na sa! Te mete ma ana tungga malolole meser na nenorin, ana bisa dadꞌi onaꞌ meser na boe.
A disciple should not [expect to be] better known than his teacher. But if a student is fully trained {if someone fully trains a student}, the student can become like his teacher [MET]. [So you should be content to be like me].
41 Ho hiiꞌ a mete maꞌabebesa atahori sala ana nara. Te sala monaem na, nda mae naa salaꞌ sa. Naa onaꞌ ho mita rae dekeꞌ sa sia atahori matan. Tao-tao te balok monaeꞌ sa natabꞌaꞌ sia mata ma, te nda medꞌa sa!
(Why do you notice [someone else’s small faults]?/None of you should be concerned about [someone else’s small faults] [MET, RHQ].) [That would be like] noticing a speck in that person’s eye. But you should be concerned about [your own big faults. They are like] planks in your own eye, [which you do not notice].
42 Taꞌo bee de mumburani olaꞌ mae, “Toronooꞌ! Uma fo au nggue hendi rae dekeꞌ sia matam dei.” Tao-tao te nda mita saa-saa sa boe, huu hambu balok natabꞌa sia matam naa! Woe! Memaꞌ ho, atahori mana dea-ralaꞌ tebꞌe! Haꞌi hendi balok naa mia matam dei. Dei fo feꞌe mita, fo tulun nggue hendi rae dekeꞌ sia nonoom matan.”
(You [(sg)] should not say, ‘Friend, let me take out that speck in your eye!’ when you do not notice the log in your own eye!/Why do you say, ‘Friend, let me take out that speck in your eye!’ when you do not notice the log in your own eye?) [RHQ] [If you do that], you are a hypocrite! You should first [stop committing your own sins. That will be like] removing the plank from your own eye. Then, as a result, you will have the spiritual insight you need to help others get rid of the [faults that are like] specks in their eyes.”
43 Yesus fee seluꞌ nekendandaaꞌ sa nae, “Hau huu maloleꞌ, nda bisa nabꞌoa bꞌoa nda maloleꞌ sa. Boe ma hau huu nda maloleꞌ sa, nda bisa nabꞌoa bꞌoa maloleꞌ sa.
“[People are like trees] [MET]. Healthy trees do not bear bad fruit (OR, bear only good fruit), and unhealthy trees do not bear good fruit.
44 Atahori rahine rae hau huuꞌ sa maloleꞌ do hokoꞌ, mia hau naa bꞌoa nara. Basa atahori bubꞌuluꞌ rae, atahori nda seu jambu bꞌoaꞌ, do anggor boaꞌ mia hau huu manggouꞌ sa.
[Just like you] can tell if a tree is good or bad by looking at its fruit, [you can tell which people are good and which are bad by looking at the way they] conduct their lives. [For example, because thornbushes cannot produce figs], no one can pick figs from thornbushes. And [since bramble bushes cannot produce grapes], no one can [pick] grapes from bramble bushes.
45 Onaꞌ naa boe atahori rala meumareꞌ, ana tao dꞌala maloleꞌ. Te atahori rala manggenggeoꞌ, ana tao dꞌala deꞌulakaꞌ. Huu atahori dedꞌea-oꞌolan, natudꞌu eni dudꞌuꞌan.”
[Similarly], good people will conduct their lives in a good way because they think a lot of good [things], and evil people will live in an evil way because they think a lot of evil [things]. The basic principle is that people speak [and act] according to all that they think.”
46 Basa ma Yesus tute oꞌolan fai nae, “Hei akaꞌ moꞌe Au mikindooꞌ a mae, ‘Malangga’. Te taꞌo bee de hei nda nau tungga Au oꞌola ngga sa?
“[Because people should obey what their masters tell them], (it is disgraceful that you say that I am your master but you do not do what I tell you!/why do you say that I am your master but you do not do what I tell you?) [RHQ]
47 Atahori mana rema rena Au, ma tao tungga oꞌola Ngga, eni, onaꞌ
Some people come to me, and hear my messages and obey them. I will tell you what they are like.
48 atahori mana nae tao ume manggateeꞌ. Ana ali malolole naꞌahuluꞌ fanderen ndolan sia rae isiꞌ losa hambu fatu manggateeꞌ. Basa de ana tao fanderen sia fatu naa ata, dei de feꞌe naririi ume a. Mete ma oe mandaliꞌ a nandali nema o, ume naa nda nanggonggaꞌ sa, huu fanderen na manggateeꞌ.
They are like a man who dug deep [into the ground to prepare to build his house]. He made sure that the foundation was on solid ground. Then when there was a flood, the water tried to wash away the house. But the river could not shake the house, because it was built {he built it} on a solid [foundation].
49 Te atahori mana rena no rala banggi-bꞌanggiꞌ ma nda tungga Au oꞌola ngga sa, eni onaꞌ atahori mana naririi umen, te nae sadꞌi dadꞌi. Ana nda tao fanderen sa, te dꞌama ume a siaꞌ a rae isiꞌ sia loe suun. De leleꞌ oe mandaliꞌ a nandali nema ma, nandali nendi ume a!”
But some people hear my messages but do not obey them. They are like a man who built a house on top of the ground without [digging] a foundation. When the river flooded, the house collapsed immediately and was completely ruined. [So it is important for you to obey what I teach you].”
