Luk 14
1 Doonu alu golo Jisu Parisis nyi rigvnvgv akogv naam lo achin dvbv aato; okv nyi vdwv Jisunyi orchok mvla kaayato.
And it came to pass, when he went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees on a sabbath to eat bread, that they were watching him.
2 Nyi ako lvpa laak bingla lvvma nvgo Jisu gvlo aato,
And behold, there was before him a certain man which had the dropsy.
3 Okv Jisu pvbv tamsarnv vdwa okv Parisis vdwa tvkato, “Ngonugv Pvbv lo doonu alu lo lvvma nvnga mvpu dubv minpvri?”
And Jesus answering spake unto the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath, or not?
4 Vbvritola bunu ogugoka mimato. Jisu nyi anga naatoku, ninyia mvpu toku, okv ninyia vngmu toku.
But they held their peace. And he took him, and healed him, and let him go.
5 Vbvrikunamv Nw bunua mintoku, “Nonugv lokv akonv kuunyilo go dooto vmalo svvhvpu angv doonu alu lo ungrung golo holwk kubolo, hum no doonu alu lo dorlin maredw?”
And he said unto them, Which of you shall have an ass or an ox fallen into a well, and will not straightway draw him up on a sabbath day?
6 Vbvritola bunu so gv lvga nga ogugoka mirwk nyula mato.
And they could not answer again unto these things.
7 Jisu kaapato nyen goknam vdwv dooku alvyachoknv vdwa gakdubv, vkvlvgabv nw so minchisinam sum bunua minjito:
And he spake a parable unto those which were bidden, when he marked how they chose out the chief seats; saying unto them,
8 “Vdwlo nonua nyi gonv nyida dvpam lo gokbolo, alvyachoknv dooku lo doomabvka, vbvrinam goka doore nam kaiyanv nyi goka gokpv kuso,
When thou art bidden of any man to a marriage feast, sit not down in the chief seat; lest haply a more honourable man than thou be bidden of him,
9 okv nonyi gv atu, nonyia goknv, v aala kula minre, ‘Soogv dooku sam ninyia doomu tvka.’ Vbvrikunamv nonu hinying reku okv dooku alv makulo doodubv rireku.
and he that bade thee and him shall come and say to thee, Give this man place; and then thou shalt begin with shame to take the lowest place.
10 Ho mabvdv, vdwlo nonua gokpv kudw, vnglaka okv koching yachok dooku lo doolaka, vkvlvgabv nonua goknv atu v nonu gvlo aala minre, ‘Ngoogv ajin a, dooku alvku so, chaatoka.’ Svbvrinam si nonua dvbvnyi goknam vdwgv kaagialo mvngdv modu.
But when thou art bidden, go and sit down in the lowest place; that when he that hath bidden thee cometh, he may say to thee, Friend, go up higher: then shalt thou have glory in the presence of all that sit at meat with thee.
11 Yvv mvnwng v atu v kainvgobv mvngsu dvdw hum miang more okv yvv mvnwngngv atu v miang nvgobv mvngsu dvdw hum kai dubv mvre.”
For every one that exalteth himself shall be humbled; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
12 Vbvrikunamv Jisu ninyia goknv atua minto, “Vdwlo no alu dvnam vmalo arium dvnam go jirinyi, no noogv ajin a vmalo noogv abwngboru a vmalo noogv agungasa nga vmalo noogv namrwk doobam nyitvnv vdwa gokmabvka bunu nonua gokrwk sireku, okv vbvrila noogv ogu rinam dvdvgv rijo nga no paaro riku.
And he said to him also that had bidden him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, nor thy kinsmen, nor rich neighbours; lest haply they also bid thee again, and a recompense be made thee.
13 Vdwlo nonu dvpam go dvmu tvdudw, heemanv vdwa, pookungnv vdwa, lvpiknv vdwa, okv nyikchingnv vdwa goklaka;
But when thou makest a feast, bid the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind:
14 Okv no aya choknam gubv rire, ogulvgavbolo bunu nonua rirwk sinyu kumare. Pwknvyarnv nonua rirwk jireku vdwlo alvnv nyi vdwgv sinam lokv turkur rikunyi.”
and thou shalt be blessed; because they have not [wherewith] to recompense thee: for thou shalt be recompensed in the resurrection of the just.
15 Vdwlo tvbul doodungnv nyi akonv hum tvvpa tokudw nw Jisunyi minto, “Vdwgo mvngpu v yvvdw Pwknvyarnv gv Karv lo dvpam lo doolwknv!”
And when one of them that sat at meat with him heard these things, he said unto him, Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God.
16 Jisu ninyia minto, “Ho hoka nyi ako dooto nw kainv dvpam go dvmu dubv nyi achialvbv gokto.
But he said unto him, A certain man made a great supper; and he bade many:
17 Vdwlo dvpam dw hv aato kudw, nw ninyigv pakbua kanamla vngmuto ninyigv nyen vdwa minpa modubv vla, ‘Ogu mvnwngngv mvpvripv pvku, aakum tokuka!’
and he sent forth his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for [all] things are now ready.
18 Vbvritola bunu mvnwngngv mvngnga labv vla minrap nyatoku. Atuk gv nyi angv pakbua minto, ‘Vjakpi rongo go rvvtobv okv um vngla kaadu bv ripv; ayala ngoogv minam sum tvji labv.’
And they all with one [consent] began to make excuse. The first said unto him, I have bought a field, and I must needs go out and see it: I pray thee have me excused.
19 Nyi akonv minto, ‘Ngo hvpu dorring go rvvtobv okv ngo hum rikala lamtvlo lingv segorung; ayala ngoogv minam sum tvji rungla bv.’
And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused.
20 Nyi akonv minto, ‘Ngo vjakpi nyimv naada pvnv, ho lvga lo ngo aala nyuma.’
And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.
21 Pakbu angv vngkur toku okv ogumvnwngnga ninyigv Atua minpa jitoku. Atu angv achialvbv hachiv kvchakbvriak toku okv ninyigv pakbu nga mintoku, ‘Baapu bv banggu arwnglo okv banggu gv chenyung lo vngnyika, okv heemanv vdwa, pookungnv vdwa, nyikchingnv vdwa, okv lvpiknv vdwa aakur gvteka.
And the servant came, and told his lord these things. Then the master of the house being angry said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor and maimed and blind and lame.
22 Pakbu angv baapubv minto, no gv gamki nama rito kubv, tamsarnv, vbvritola karchung ngv nyi megonvgv lvgabv doodvpv.’
And the servant said, Lord, what thou didst command is done, and yet there is room.
23 Vkvlvgabv Atu v pakbua minto, ‘mookugv lamtvbv vnglin nyika okv nyi vdwa arwng lo aadu bv mvtoka, vkvlvgabv ngoogv naam lo yarbing dukubv.
And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and constrain [them] to come in, that my house may be filled.
24 Ngo nonu mvnwngnga mindunv so nyi tamnam vdw sokv yvvka ngoogv arium dvnam a dvpa kumare!’”
For I say unto you, that none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper.
25 Lvko nyipam kainvgo Jisunyi lvkobv vngming gvrilo, nw dakrwkla bunua minto,
Now there went with him great multitudes: and he turned, and said unto them,
26 “Yvvdw ngoogvlo aadunv ngoogv lvbwlaksu gubv rinyumare vdwlo nw ninyigv Abu okv ninyigv anv, ninyigv nywng okv ninyigv kuu vdwa, ninyigv achiboru okv ninyigv anyibormv, okv nw atubongv alvrungbv paknama lvyabv nga pakma dvdvlo.
If any man cometh unto me, and hateth not his own father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.
27 Yvvdw atu ninyigv daapo nga bakma dunv okv nga vngming gvma dunv hv ngoogv lvbwlaksu gubv rinyu mare.
Whosoever doth not bear his own cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.
28 Nonu gvlokv akonv naam aokolo nvgo mvdubv rungbolo, nw atukchobv doopv tvla okv vkamgu arv ngv ritv rinv bri nw um morko v um rinya nvnv go doodudw kaaka chori.
For which of you, desiring to build a tower, doth not first sit down and count the cost, whether he have [wherewith] to complete it?
29 Nw dooku mabolo, naam a mvrapro kochingbv nw vdwloka mvnya nyuku mare; okv ogugo ripvdw nyi kaanv mvnwngngv ninyia nyarji reku.
Lest haply, when he hath laid a foundation, and is not able to finish, all that behold begin to mock him,
30 Bunu minreku, ‘So nyi si naam a mvdubv mvrap toku vbvritola mvnya nyukuma.’
saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish.
31 Dvbv gonv hejar vring nyiga go vnglingvla dvbv hejar chamnyi doonvgo mvmi sidubv riku bolo, nw atokchobv doopv tvla japka riku dvbv nga mvmi sinyu redw ma mvmi sinyu maridw vla.
Or what king, as he goeth to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and take counsel whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand?
32 Nw choopu kuma bolo, nw gindungpingko go vngmure dvbv anga kaarwk sidu kubv okv sarsopoyo lvgabv tvvka siya dukubv ninyigv adu lo vngdungla vngngo lvpa rikulo.”
Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sendeth an ambassage, and asketh conditions of peace.
33 “Ho apiabv,” Jisu minyabv minto, “Nonu lokv yvvka ngoogv lvbwlaksu gobv rinyu mare vdwlo nonuno nonugv ogumvnwngnga kayu maredw.”
So therefore whosoever he be of you that renounceth not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.
34 “Alu v alv nvgo, vbvritola si tinam a ngemu kubolo, hum lvkodv tidukubv mvjiku lamtv kaakuma.
Salt therefore is good: but if even the salt have lost its savour, wherewith shall it be seasoned?
35 So si kvdw gv lvgabv alv kuma vmalo eriung gvbvka alvkuma; hum adulo ora duku. Tvvtoka, vbvrikunamv, nonuno nyarung gvdubolo!”
It is fit neither for the land nor for the dunghill: [men] cast it out. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
