Luukos 15
1 Waxaa Ciise u soo dhowaanayay cashuurqaadayaasha iyo dembilayaasha oo dhan inay maqlaan.
Many [HYP] tax collectors and [others whom people considered to be] habitual sinners kept coming to Jesus to listen to him teach.
2 Kolkaasay Farrisiintii iyo culimmadiiba gunuunaceen, iyagoo leh, Ninkanu dembilayaashuu soo dhoweeyaa oo wax la cunaa.
The Pharisees and men who taught the [Jewish] laws [who were there] [SYN] began to grumble, saying, “This man welcomes sinners and he also [defiles himself by eating] with them!”
3 Markaasuu masaalkan kula hadlay, oo ku yidhi,
So Jesus told them this parable:
4 Ninkiinnee baa tiro ido ah leh, oo middood ka hallowday, aan sagaal iyo sagaashanka cidlada kaga tegin, oo aan tii hallowday ka daba tegin, ilaa uu soo helo?
“Suppose that one of you had 100 sheep. If one of them were lost, (you [(sg)] would certainly leave the 99 sheep in the pasture, and go and search for the one lost sheep until you found it./would you not leave the 99 sheep in the pasture, and go and search for the one lost sheep until you found it?) [RHQ]
5 Oo goortuu soo helo, aan garbihiisa saarin, isagoo faraxsan.
When you [(sg)] found it, you would put it on your shoulders and be happy.
6 Oo goortuu guriga yimaado, aan isugu yeedhin saaxiibbadiisa iyo derisyadiisa, isagoo ku leh, Ila farxa, waayo, waxaan helay laxdaydii iga hallowday?
When you brought it home, you would call together your friends and neighbors and say to them, ‘Be happy with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost!’
7 Waxaan idinku leeyahay, Sidaas oo kale, farxad ayaa jannada kaga jiri doonta dembile toobadkeena in ka badan sagaal iyo sagaashan xaq ah oo aan toobadkeen u baahnayn.
I tell you [(pl)] that similarly [God] will be very happy about each and every sinner who turns from doing evil. God is not happy about 99 people who [think that they] are [IRO] righteous and think that they do not need to turn from doing evil.
8 Ama naagtee baa toban daraakmo oo lacag ah leh, oo hadday daraakmo lumiso, aan laambad shidin, oo aan guriga xaaqin, oo aan dadaal ku doonin ilaa ay hesho?
Or, suppose that a woman has ten [very valuable] silver coins. If she loses one of them, (she will certainly light a lamp and sweep the floor and search carefully until she finds it!/will she not light a lamp and sweep the floor and search carefully until she finds it?) [RHQ]
9 Oo markay hesho, aan saaxiibbadeeda iyo derisyadeeda isugu yeedhin iyadoo ku leh, Ila farxa, waayo, waxaan helay daraakmadii iga luntay.
When she finds it, she will call together her friends and neighbors and say, ‘Be happy with me, [because] I have found the coin that I lost!’
10 Waxaan idinku leeyahay, Sidaas oo kale markii mid dembi leh toobadkeenoba, farxad ayaa kaga jirta malaa'igaha Ilaah hortooda.
I tell you that similarly the angels will be happy about [even just] one sinner who turns from doing evil.”
11 Wuxuuna yidhi, Nin baa laba wiil lahaa.
Then [Jesus told them this parable to compare what the Pharisees and teachers of the Jewish law thought about those who turn from their sinful behavior with what God thinks about such people]. He said, “A certain man had two sons.
12 Kii yaraa ayaa aabbihii ku yidhi, Aabbow, waxaaga qaybtii aan heli lahaa i sii. Markaasuu iyaga u qaybiyey wuxuu ku noolaa.
One day the younger son said to his father, ‘Father, [I do not want to wait until you(sg) die]. Give me now the share of your property that belongs to me!’ So the man divided his property between his two sons.
13 Maalmo aan badnayn dabadeed wiilkii yaraa waa wada urursaday wax walbaba, oo dhul fog ayuu u safray, halkaas ayuuna wixiisii ku khasaariyey, isagoo iska tumaya.
A few days later, the younger son [sold his share]. He gathered his money and other things together and went to a country far away. There he spent all his money foolishly in reckless/wild living.
14 Goortuu wada bixiyey dabadeed ayaa abaar daran dhulkaas ka dhacday, wuuna bilaabay inuu baahdo.
After he had spent all his money, there was a great famine throughout that country. And soon he did not have enough [food to] eat.
15 Goortaasuu tegey oo isku daray nin dadka dhulkaas ah, kan u diray beerihiisa inuu doofaarro daajiyo.
So he went to one of the landowners in that area and asked for work. The man sent him to work taking care of the pigs in his field.
16 Wuxuu damcay inuu calooshiisa ka buuxiyo buunshihii doofaarradu ay cunayeen, ninnana waxba ma uu siin.
[Because he was very hungry], he would have been glad to eat the bean pods that the pigs ate. But no one gave him anything to eat.
17 Goortuu isgartay ayuu yidhi, Intee baa kuwa aabbahay kiraystay haysata kibis ka badan in ku filan, aniguna macaluul baan halkan ugu bakhtiyayaa.
Finally he thought clearly about what he had done. He said to himself, ‘All of my father’s hired servants have plenty of food! They have more [SYN] than they can eat, but here I am dying because I do not have anything to eat [HYP]!
18 Waan kici oo aan aabbahay u tegi, oo waxaan ku odhan, Aabbow, waxaan ku dembaabay jannada iyo hortaadaba.
So I will leave here and go back to my father. I will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against God [MTY, EUP] and against you [(sg)].
19 Kol dambe ma istaahilo in laygu yeedho wiilkaaga, ee iga dhig sida kuwa aad kiraysatay midkood oo kale.
I am no longer worthy to be called {of [you] calling me} your son. Just hire me to be like one of the other hired servants.”’
20 Markaasuu kacay, oo wuxuu u yimid aabbihii, laakiin intuu weli ka fogaa ayaa aabbihiis arkay, waana u naxariistay, oo ku soo orday oo qoortuu iskaga duubay, oo dhunkaday.
So he left there and went back to his father’s house. But while he was still some distance from the house, his father saw him. He pitied him. He ran to his son and embraced him and kissed him [on the cheek].
21 Markaasaa wiilkii ku yidhi, Aabbow, waxaan ku dembaabay jannada iyo hortaadaba; kol dambe ma istaahilo in laygu yeedho wiilkaaga.
His son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against God [MTY/EUP] and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called {of [you] calling me} your son.’
22 Laakiin aabbihii ayaa addoommadiisii ku yidhi, Dhaqso u soo bixiya khamiiska ugu wanaagsan oo u geliya, kaatunna gacanta u geliya, kabona cagaha u geliya.
But his father said to his servants, ‘Go quickly and bring to me the best robe [in the house]! Then put it on my son. Put a ring on his finger [to show that I am honoring him again as my son]! Put sandals on his feet [to show that I do not consider him to be a slave]!
23 Dibigii yaraa ee la shishleeyey keena oo gowraca, aynu cunno oo faraxno,
Then bring the fat calf and kill it [and cook it]. We [(inc)] must eat and celebrate,
24 waayo, wiilkaygan wuu dhintay, wuuna soo noolaaday; wuu lumay, waana la helay. Markaasay bilaabeen inay farxaan.
because my son has returned! [It is as though] [MET] he was dead and is alive again! [It is as though] he was lost and now has been found!’ So they did that, and they all began to celebrate.
25 Laakiin wiilkiisii weynaa beerta buu ku jiray, oo intuu soo socday oo guriga u soo dhowaanayay, wuxuu maqlay muusika iyo cayaar.
While all that was happening, the man’s older son was out [working] in the field. When he came near to the house, he heard [people playing] music and dancing.
26 Markaasuu midiidinyada midkood u yeedhay oo weyddiiyey, Waa maxay waxaas?
He called one of the servants and asked what was happening.
27 Markaasuu ku yidhi, Walaalkaa ayaa yimid, aabbahaana dibigii yaraa ee la shishleeyey ayuu u gowracay, waayo, ladnaan buu ku helay.
The servant said to him, ‘Your [younger] brother has come [home] Your father has [told us to] kill the fat calf [to celebrate] because your brother has returned safe and healthy.’
28 Laakiin wuu cadhooday, oo inuu galo ma doonayn, markaasaa aabbihiis soo baxay oo baryay.
[But] the older brother was angry. He refused to enter [the house]. So his father came out and pleaded with him [to come in].
29 Laakiin wuu u jawaabay, oo wuxuu aabbihiis ku yidhi, Bal eeg, intaas oo sannadood ayaan kuu shaqaynayay, oo weligay amarkaaga kama aan xadgudbin, oo weligaa waxar iima aad siin inaan saaxiibbadayda la farxo,
But he replied to his father, ‘Listen to me! For many years I have worked for you like a slave. I always obeyed everything you told me to do. But you never even gave me a young goat, so that I could [kill it and cook it and] celebrate with my friends.
30 Laakiin goortii uu yimid wiilkaagani waxaagii aad ku noolayd dhillooyin la cunay, waxaad u gowracday dibigii yaraa ee la shishleeyey.
But this son of yours spent all the [money he got from] what you gave him. He spent it [to pay for sleeping with] prostitutes! Yes, now he has returned home, [but it is not fair that] you have told your [servants] to kill the fat calf [and cook it] for him!’
31 Markaasuu ku yidhi, Wiilkaygiiyow, weligaa waad ila joogtaa, oo waxayga oo dhan adigaa leh,
But his father said to him, ‘My son, you have always been with me, and all my property [that I did not give to your brother] has been yours.
32 laakiin waxaa inoo wanaagsanayd inaynu rayrayno oo faraxno, waayo, waalaalkaagani waa dhintay, wuuna soo noolaaday; wuu lumay, waana la helay.
But [it is as though] [MET] your brother was dead and is alive again! [It is as though] he was lost and now he has been found! So it is appropriate for us to be happy and celebrate!’”
