< Lucas 13 >
1 Nang panahong iyon, sinabi sa kaniya ng ilang tao na naroon ang tungkol sa mga taga-Galilea, na ang dugo ng mga ito'y inihalo ni Pilato sa kanilang mga sariling alay.
Now some people who were there at that time, gave him an account of how the blood of some Galilaeans had been mixed by Pilate with their offerings.
2 Sumagot si Jesus at sinabi sa kanila, “Sa tingin ba ninyo ay mas makasalanan ang mga taga-Galilea na ito kaysa sa ibang mga taga-Galilea dahil nagdusa sila sa ganitong paraan?
And he, in answer, said to them, Are you of the opinion that these Galilaeans were worse than all other Galilaeans, because these things were done to them?
3 Hindi, sinasabi ko sa inyo. Ngunit kung hindi kayo magsisisi, mamamatay kayong lahat sa ganoon ding paraan.
I say to you, It is not so: but if your hearts are not changed, you will all come to the same end.
4 O iyong labing walong tao sa Siloam na nabagsakan ng tore at namatay, sa tingin ba ninyo ay mas makasalanan sila kaysa sa ibang tao sa Jerusalem?
Or those eighteen men who were crushed by the fall of the tower of Siloam, were they worse than all the other men living in Jerusalem?
5 Hindi, sinasabi ko. Ngunit kung hindi kayo magsisisi, lahat kayo ay mamatay din.”
I say to you, It is not so: but if your hearts are not changed, you will all come to an end in the same way.
6 Sinabi ni Jesus ang talinghagang ito, “May isang taong may isang puno ng igos na nakatanim sa kaniyang ubasan at dumating siya at naghanap ng bunga nito ngunit wala siyang matagpuan.
And he made up this story for them: A certain man had a fig-tree in his garden, and he came to get fruit from it, and there was no fruit.
7 Sinabi niya sa hardinero, 'Tingnan mo, tatlong taon na akong pumaparito, at sinubukang maghanap ng bunga ng puno ng igos na ito ngunit wala akong natagpuan. Putulin mo ito. Bakit hahayaang sayangin nito ang lupa?'
And he said to the gardener, See, for three years I have been looking for fruit from this tree, and I have not had any: let it be cut down; why is it taking up space?
8 Sumagot ang hardinero at sinabi, 'Pabayaan mo muna ito sa taong ito hanggang sa aking mahukayan ang palibot nito at malagyan ito ng pataba.
And he said, Lord, let it be for this year, and I will have the earth turned up round it, and put animal waste on it, to make it fertile:
9 Kung mamunga ito sa susunod na taon, mabuti; ngunit kung hindi, putulin mo ito!”'
And if, after that, it has fruit, it is well; if not, let it be cut down.
10 Ngayon, nagtuturo si Jesus sa isa sa mga sinagoga sa Araw ng Pamamahinga.
And he was teaching in one of the Synagogues on the Sabbath.
11 Masdan, may isang babaeng naroon na labing-walong taon nang may masamang espiritu ng panghihina, at siya ay baluktot at hindi siya lubusang makatayo.
And there was a woman who had had a disease for eighteen years; she was bent, and was not able to make herself straight.
12 Nang makita siya ni Jesus, tinawag niya ito at sinabi, “Babae, napalaya ka na mula sa iyong panghihina.”
And when Jesus saw her, he said to her, Woman, you are made free from your disease.
13 Ipinatong niya ang kaniyang mga kamay sa babae, at kaagad siyang naunat at niluwalhati niya ang Diyos.
And he put his hands on her, and she was made straight, and gave praise to God.
14 Ngunit nagalit ang pinuno ng sinagoga dahil nagpagaling si Jesus sa Araw ng Pamamahinga. Kaya sumagot ang pinuno at sinabi sa maraming mga tao, “May anim na araw kung saan kinakailangang magtrabaho. Pumarito kayo at mapagaling sa mga araw na iyon, huwag sa Araw ng Pamamahinga.”
And the ruler of the Synagogue was angry because Jesus had made her well on the Sabbath, and he said to the people, There are six days in which men may do work: so come on those days to be made well, and not on the Sabbath.
15 Sinagot siya ng Panginoon at sinabi, “Mga mapagkunwari! Hindi ba kinakalag ng bawat isa sa inyo ang tali ng kaniyang asno o baka mula sa sabsaban nito upang painumin sa Araw ng Pamamahinga?
But the Lord gave him an answer and said, O you false men! do you not, every one of you, on the Sabbath, let loose his ox and his ass and take it to the water?
16 Kaya ito ring babaeng anak ni Abraham, na labing-walong taon nang iginapos ni Satanas, hindi ba nararapat kalagan ang kaniyang gapos sa Araw ng Pamamahinga?”
And is it not right for this daughter of Abraham, who has been in the power of Satan for eighteen years, to be made free on the Sabbath?
17 Nang sinabi niya ang mga bagay na ito, lahat ng sumalungat sa kaniya ay napahiya, ngunit nagagalak ang maraming tao sa mga maluwalhating bagay na kaniyang ginawa.
And when he said these things, those who were against him were shamed, and all the people were full of joy because of the great things which were done by him.
18 At sinabi ni Jesus, “Ano ang katulad ng kaharian ng Diyos, at ano ang maaari kong ihambing dito?
Then he said, What is the kingdom of God like? what comparison may I make of it?
19 Ito ay tulad ng isang buto ng mustasa na kinuha ng isang tao at inihagis sa kaniyang halamanan, at ito ay tumubo at naging isang malaking puno, at namugad sa mga sanga nito ang mga ibon sa langit.”
It is like a grain of mustard seed which a man took and put in his garden, and it became a tree, and the birds of heaven made their resting-places in its branches.
20 Muli, sinabi niya, “Saan ko maaaring ihambing ang salita ng Diyos?
And again he said, What is the kingdom of God like?
21 Ito ay tulad ng lebadura na kinuha ng isang babae at inihalo sa tatlong takal ng harina hanggang sa ito ay umalsa.”
It is like leaven, which a woman put into three measures of meal, and it was all leavened.
22 Binisita ni Jesus ang bawat bayan at baryo sa daan patungong Jerusalem at tinuruan sila.
And he went on his way, through towns and country places, teaching and journeying to Jerusalem.
23 May nagsabi sa kaniya, “Panginoon, kakaunti lamang bang tao ang maliligtas?” Kaya sinabi niya sa kanila,
And someone said to him, Lord, will only a small number have salvation? And he said to them,
24 “Pagsikapan ninyong pumasok sa makipot na pintuan, dahil marami ang susubok ngunit hindi sila makakapasok.
Do your best to go in by the narrow door, for I say to you, A number will make the attempt to go in, but will not be able to do so.
25 Kapag tumayo na ang may-ari ng bahay at isinara ang pintuan, at kayo ay tatayo sa labas at kakalabugin ang pinto at sasabihin, 'Panginoon, Panginoon, papasukin mo kami.' At siya ay sasagot at sasabihin sa inyo, 'Hindi ko kayo kilala o kung taga-saan kayo.'
When the master of the house has got up, and the door has been shut, and you, still outside, give blows on the door, saying, Lord, let us in; he will make answer and say, I have no knowledge of where you come from.
26 Pagkatapos ay inyong sasabihin, 'Kami ay kumain at uminom sa iyong harapan at nagturo ka sa aming mga lansangan.'
Then you will say, We have taken food and drink with you, and you were teaching in our streets.
27 Ngunit sasagot siya, 'Sinasabi ko sa inyo, hindi ko alam kung taga-saan kayo. Lumayo kayo sa akin, kayong mga gumagawa ng masama!'
But he will say, Truly, I have no knowledge of you or where you come from; go away from me, you workers of evil.
28 Magkakaroon ng pagnanangis at pagngangalit ng ngipin kapag nakita ninyo sina Abraham, Isaac, Jacob at ang lahat ng propeta sa kaharian ng Diyos, ngunit kayo—kayo ay itinapon sa labas.
There will be weeping and cries of sorrow when you see Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, but you yourselves are shut outside.
29 Darating sila mula sa silangan, kanluran, hilaga, at timog at sila ay uupo sa hapag-kainan sa kaharian ng Diyos.
And they will come from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south, and take their places in the kingdom of God.
30 At alamin ninyo ito, ang mga pinakahuli ay ang mga una, at ang una ay magiging huli.”
And the last will be first, and the first will be last.
31 Hindi nagtagal, may ilang mga Pariseong dumating at sinabi sa kaniya, “Pumunta ka at umalis dito dahil nais kang patayin ni Herodes.”
At that time, certain Pharisees came to him and said, Go away from this place, because Herod's purpose is to put you to death.
32 Sinabi ni Jesus, “Pumunta kayo at sabihin sa asong-gubat na iyon, 'Tingnan mo, nagpapalayas ako ng mga demonyo at nagpapagaling ako ngayon at bukas, at sa ikatlong araw ay maaabot ko ang aking layunin.'
And he said, Go and say to that fox, I send out evil spirits and do works of mercy today and tomorrow, and on the third day my work will be complete.
33 Gayunman, kinakailangan na ako ay magpatuloy ngayon, bukas at sa susunod na araw, sapagkat hindi katanggap-tanggap na pumatay ng isang propeta sa labas ng Jerusalem.
But I have to go on my way today and tomorrow and the third day, for it is not right for a prophet to come to his death outside Jerusalem.
34 Jerusalem, Jerusalem, na pumapatay ng mga propeta at bumabato sa mga ipinadala sa iyo. Kaydalas kong ninais na tipunin ang iyong mga anak tulad ng pagtitipon ng inahing manok sa kaniyang mga sisiw sa ilalim ng kaniyang mga pakpak, ngunit hindi mo ito ninais.
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, putting to death the prophets, and stoning those who were sent to her! again and again would I have taken your children to myself, as a bird takes her young ones under her wings, but you would not!
35 Tingnan mo, iniwan ang iyong bahay. Sinasabi ko sa iyo, hindi mo ako makikita hanggang sabihin mo, 'Pinagpala siya na dumarating sa pangalan ng Panginoon.”'
Now see, your house is waste, and I say to you, You will not see me again till you say, A blessing on him who comes in the name of the Lord.
