Luka 15
1 Približevali so se pa k njemu vsi mitarji in grešniki, da bi ga poslušali.
THEN drew nigh unto him all the tax-farmers and the sinners to hear him.
2 In godrnjali so Farizeji in pismarji, govoreč: Ta sprejema grešnike, in ž njimi jé.
And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man entertains sinners, and eateth with them.
3 A on jim pové to-le priliko, govoreč:
Then spake he unto them this parable, saying,
4 Kdo izmed vas, imajoč sto ovác, če eno od njih izgubí, ne pustí devet in devetdeseterih v puščavi, pa gre za izgubljeno, da jo najde?
What man is there of you, possessing an hundred sheep, though he lose but one of them, will he not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it?
5 In ko jo najde, zadene jo vesel na rame svoje,
and when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
6 In ko pride domú, skliče prijatelje in sosede, govoreč jim: Radujte se z menoj! kajti našel sem ovco svojo, ktera se je bila izgubila.
And coming home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Congratulate me; for I have found that sheep of mine which was lost.
7 Pravim vam, da bo ravno tako radost na nebu za enega grešnika, kteri se spokori, veča, nego za devet in devetdeset pravičnih, kterim ni treba pokore.
I tell you, that just so will there be joy in heaven over one repentant sinner, more than over ninety-nine righteous persons, who hold not their need of repentance.
8 Ali ktera žena, imajoč deset grošev, če izgubí en groš, ne prižge sveče, in ne pomete hiše, in ne išče skrbno, dokler ne najde?
Or what woman having ten pieces of silver coin, if she lose one of them, doth she not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and make diligent search until she find it?
9 In ko najde, skliče prijateljico in sosedinje, govoreč: Radujte se z menoj! kajti našla sem groš, kterega sem bila izgubila.
And having found it, she calleth her female friends and neighbours together, saying, Congratulate me; for I have found the silver piece I had lost.
10 Tako, pravim vam, da je tudi radost pred angelji Božjimi za enega grešnika, kteri se spokorí.
Even so, I tell you, there is joy among the angels of God, over one repentant sinner.
11 In reče: Neki človek je imel dva sina.
Then he said, A certain man had two sons:
12 Pa reče mlajši od nju očetu: Oče, daj mi del premoženja, kteri mi pripada. In razdelí jima premoženje.
and the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of substance which falls to my share. And he divided with them his fortune.
13 In črez nekoliko dnî zbere mlajši sin vse, in odpotuje v daljno deželo: in tu raztrosi vse premoženje, živeč samopašno.
And not many days after, the younger son, collecting his all, travelled into a far distant country, and there dissipated his substance in a life of debauchery.
14 In ko je bil vse potratil, nastane huda lakota po tej deželi, in on začne stradati.
But when he had spent all, there came a terrible famine in that region; and he began to know want.
15 In odide, in pridruži se enemu od meščanov te dežele; in ta ga pošlje na polje svoje svinje past.
And he went and connected himself with one of the citizens of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
16 In hrepenel je, da bi napolnil trebuh svoj z rožiči, ktere so jedle svinje; ali nikdor mu jih ni podajal.
And he eagerly longed to fill his belly with the charob berries which the swine did eat: and no person gave him a morsel.
17 A ko pride k sebi, reče: Koliko najemnikov očeta mojega ima obilno kruha, a jaz lakote pogibam!
Then coming to himself, he said, How many hirelings of my father abound with loaves of bread, and I am pining away with famine!
18 Vstal bom, šel bom k očetu svojemu, in rekel mu bom: Oče, pregrešil sem se zoper nebo in pred teboj!
I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,
19 In nisem več vreden, da bi se sin tvoj imenoval; naredi me za enega najemnikov svojih.
and I am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hirelings.
20 In vstavši, odide k očetu svojemu. A ko je še daleč bil, ugleda ga oče njegov; in užali mu se, ter poletí, in oklene se vratú njegovega, in poljubi ga.
And he arose and came to his father. But when he was yet at a considerable distance, his father discovered him, and was moved with compassion, and running, fell on his neck, and kissed him again and again.
21 A sin mu reče: Oče, pregrešil sem se zoper nebo in pred teboj, in nisem več vreden, da bi se sin tvoj imenoval!
Then said the son unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.
22 Pa reče oče hlapcem svojim: Prinesite najlepšo suknjo, in oblecite ga, in podajte mu prstan na roko, in obutalo na noge;
But the father said to his servants, Bring out the best robe, and clothe him; and put a ring on his hand, and sandals on his feet:
23 In pripeljite tele pitano, in zakoljite ga; in jedoč, veselili se bomo:
and bring hither the stall-fed steer, and kill it; and let us eat, and be joyous.
24 Kajti ta sin moj je bil mrtev, in oživel je; in izgubljen je bil, in našel se je. In začnó se veseliti.
For this my son was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found. And they began to be joyous.
25 A stariji sin njegov je bil na polji; in ko se gredoč približa hiši, zasliši petje in vrisk,
Now his elder brother had been in the field: and when coming home he drew near the house, he heard a concert of music, and the chorus.
26 In poklicavši enega od hlapcev, vpraša, kaj bi to bilo.
And calling one of the servants, he inquired what these things meant.
27 On mu pa reče: Brat tvoj je prišel; in zaklal je oče tvoj tele pitano, da ga je zdravega sprejel.
And he said, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed for him the stall-fed steer, because he hath received him in health.
28 A on se ujezí, in ni hotel vniti. Tedaj izide oče njegov, ter ga je prosil.
Then he was in great wrath, and would not enter the doors: therefore his father came out, and entreated him.
29 On pa odgovarjajoč, reče očetu: Glej, toliko let ti služim, in nikoli nisem prelomil zapovedi tvoje, in meni nisi dal nikoli kozliča, da bi se s prijatelji svojimi razveselil.
But he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years I am serving thee, and never have transgressed thy command: yet to me thou hast never once given a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:
30 Ko je pa prišel ta sin tvoj, kteri je premoženje tvoje s kurbami zažrl, zaklal si mu tele pitano.
but no sooner is this son of thine come, who hath devoured thy substance with whores, than thou hast killed for him the stall-fed steer.
31 On mu pa reče: Sin, ti si vsegdar z menoj, in vse moje je tvoje.
And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all my possessions are thine.
32 Treba pa se je bilo veseliti in radovati, ker je bil ta brat mrtev, in oživel je; in izgubljen je bil, in našel se je.
But it was right that we should rejoice, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.
