< Luke 19 >

1 Jesu sì wọ Jeriko lọ, ó sì ń kọjá láàrín rẹ̀.
And he entered and was passing through Jericho.
2 Sì kíyèsi i, ọkùnrin kan wà tí a ń pè ní Sakeu, ó sì jẹ́ olórí agbowó òde kan, ó sì jẹ́ ọlọ́rọ̀.
And lo! a man named Zacchaeus; and he was a chief publican, and he was rich.
3 Ó sì ń fẹ́ láti rí ẹni tí Jesu jẹ́: kò sì lè rí i, nítorí ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn, àti nítorí tí òun jẹ́ ènìyàn kúkúrú.
And he sought to see Jesus, what sort of man he was; and he could not on account of the multitude; because he was small of stature.
4 Ó sì súré síwájú, ó gun orí igi sikamore kan, kí ó bà lè rí i: nítorí tí yóò kọjá lọ níhà ibẹ̀.
And he ran on before, and climbed up a sycamore-tree to see him; for he was to pass that way.
5 Nígbà tí Jesu sì dé ibẹ̀, ó gbé ojú sókè, ó sì rí i, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Sakeu! Yára, kí o sì sọ̀kalẹ̀; nítorí pé èmi yóò wọ ilé rẹ lónìí.”
And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and said to him, Zacchaeas, make haste and come down; for today I must abide at thy house.
6 Ó sì yára, ó sọ̀kalẹ̀, ó sì fi ayọ̀ gbà á.
And he made haste and came down, and received him joyfully.
7 Nígbà tí wọ́n sì rí i, gbogbo wọn ń kùn, wí pé, “Ó lọ bá ọkùnrin ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ náà ní àlejò.”
And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, He hath gone in to be the guest of a sinner.
8 Sakeu sì dìde, ó sì wí fún Olúwa pé, “Wò ó, Olúwa, ààbọ̀ ohun ìní mi ni mo fi fún tálákà; bí mo bá sì fi èké gba ohun kan lọ́wọ́ ẹnikẹ́ni, èmi san án padà ní ìlọ́po mẹ́rin!”
And Zacchaeus stood up, and said to the Lord, Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken anything from any one by false representation, I restore him four-fold.
9 Jesu sì wí fún un pé, “Lónìí ni ìgbàlà wọ ilé yìí, níwọ̀n bí òun pẹ̀lú ti jẹ́ ọmọ Abrahamu.
And Jesus said to him, This day hath salvation come to this house, inasmuch as he also is a son of Abraham;
10 Nítorí Ọmọ Ènìyàn dé láti wá àwọn tí ó nù kiri, àti láti gbà wọ́n là.”
for the Son of man came to seek and to save that which was lost.
11 Nígbà tí wọ́n sì ń gbọ́ nǹkan wọ̀nyí, ó sì tẹ̀síwájú láti pa òwe kan, nítorí tí ó súnmọ́ Jerusalẹmu, àti nítorí tí wọn ń rò pé, ìjọba Ọlọ́run yóò farahàn nísinsin yìí.
And while they were hearing these things, he proceeded and spoke a parable, because he was near to Jerusalem, and they thought that the kingdom of God would immediately appear.
12 Ó sì wí pé, “Ọkùnrin ọlọ́lá kan lọ sí ìlú òkèrè láti gba ìjọba kí ó sì padà.
He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
13 Ó sì pe àwọn ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ mẹ́wàá, ó fi owó mina mẹ́wàá fún wọn, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, ‘Ẹ máa ṣòwò títí èmi ó fi dé!’
And he called his ten servants, and gave them ten pounds, and said to them, Trade with these, till I come.
14 “Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ará ìlù rẹ̀ kórìíra rẹ̀, wọ́n sì rán ikọ̀ tẹ̀lé e, wí pé, ‘Àwa kò fẹ́ kí ọkùnrin yìí jẹ ọba lórí wa.’
But his citizens hated him, and sent an embassy after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us.
15 “Nígbà tí ó gba ìjọba tan, tí ó padà dé, ó pàṣẹ pé, kí a pe àwọn ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ wọ̀nyí tí òun ti fi owó fún wá sọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, nítorí kí ó le mọ iye èrè tí olúkúlùkù ti jẹ nínú iṣẹ́ òwò wọn.
And it came to pass, when he had returned, having received the kingdom, that he commanded these servants to whom he had given the money to be called to him, that he might know what each had gained by trading.
16 “Èyí èkínní sì wá, ó wí pé, ‘Olúwa, owó mina rẹ jèrè owó mina mẹ́wàá sí i.’
And the first came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.
17 “Olúwa rẹ̀ sì wí fún un pé, ‘O ṣeun, ìwọ ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ rere! Nítorí tí ìwọ ṣe olóòtítọ́ ní ohun kínkínní, gba àṣẹ lórí ìlú mẹ́wàá.’
And he said to him, Well done, good servant! because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have authority over ten cities.
18 “Èyí èkejì sì wá, ó wí pé, ‘Olúwa, owó mina rẹ jèrè owó mina márùn.’
And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.
19 “Olúwa rẹ sì wí fún un pẹ̀lú pé, ‘Ìwọ pẹ̀lú joyè ìlú márùn-ún!’
And he said also to this servant, And be thou over five cities.
20 “Òmíràn sì wá, ó wí pé, ‘Olúwa, wò ó owó mina rẹ tí ń bẹ lọ́wọ́ mi ni mo dì sínú aṣọ pélébé kan;
And another came, saying, Lord, behold thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin.
21 nítorí mo bẹ̀rù rẹ, àti nítorí tí ìwọ ṣe òǹrorò ènìyàn, ìwọ a máa mú èyí tí ìwọ kò fi lélẹ̀, ìwọ a sì máa ká èyí tí ìwọ kò gbìn!’
For I feared thee, because thou art a harsh man; thou takest up what thou didst not lay down, and reapest what thou didst not sow.
22 “Olúwa rẹ sì wí fún un pé, ‘Ní ẹnu ara rẹ náà ni èmi ó ṣe ìdájọ́ rẹ, ìwọ ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ búburú, ìwọ mọ̀ pé òǹrorò ènìyàn ni mí, pé, èmi a máa mú èyí tí èmi kò fi lélẹ̀ èmi a sì máa ká èyí tí èmi kò gbìn.
He saith to him, Out of thy mouth will I judge thee, wicked servant! thou knewest that I was a harsh man, taking up what I laid not down, and reaping what I did not sow;
23 Èéha sì ti ṣe tí ìwọ kò fi owó mi pamọ́ sí ilé ìfowópamọ́, pé nígbà tí mo bá dé, èmi ìbá ti béèrè rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú èlé?’
why then didst thou not put my money into a bank? Then I at my coming might have received it back with interest.
24 “Ó sì wí fún àwọn tí ó dúró létí ibẹ̀ pé, ‘Ẹ gba owó mina náà lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀, kí ẹ sì fi í fún ẹni tí ó ní owó mina mẹ́wàá.’
And he said to them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath the ten pounds.
25 “Wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, ‘Olúwa, ó ní owó mina mẹ́wàá.’
(And they said to him, He hath ten pounds, Lord.)
26 “Mo wí fún yín pé, ‘Ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó ní, ni a ó fi fún, àti lọ́dọ̀ ẹni tí kò ní èyí tí ó ní pàápàá a ó gbà á lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀.
I say to you, that to every one who hath, will be given; but from him that hath not, even what he hath will be taken away.
27 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọ̀tá mi wọ̀nyí, tí kò fẹ́ kí èmi jẹ ọba lórí wọn ẹ mú wọn wá ìhín yìí, kí ẹ sì pa wọ́n níwájú mi!’”
But as for those enemies of mine, who would not that I should reign over them, bring them here, and slay them before me.
28 Nígbà tí ó sì ti wí nǹkan wọ̀nyí tan, ó lọ síwájú, ó ń gòkè lọ sí Jerusalẹmu.
And when he had thus spoken, he went forward, going up to Jerusalem.
29 Ó sì ṣe, nígbà tí ó súnmọ́ Betfage àti Betani ní òkè tí a ń pè ní òkè olifi, ó rán àwọn méjì nínú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀.
And it came to pass, as he drew near to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
30 Wí pé, “Ẹ lọ sí ìletò tí ó kọjú sí yín; nígbà tí ẹ̀yin bá wọ̀ ọ́ lọ, ẹ̀yin ó rí ọmọ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ kan tí a so, tí ẹnikẹ́ni kò gùn rí, ẹ tú u, kí ẹ sì fà á wá.
saying, Go to the village over against us; on entering which ye will find a colt tied, whereon no man ever sat; and loose, and bring it.
31 Bí ẹnikẹ́ni bá sì bi yín pé, ‘Èéṣe tí ẹ̀yin fi ń tú u?’ Kí ẹ̀yin wí báyìí pé, ‘Olúwa ń fẹ́ lò ó.’”
And if any one ask you, Why are ye loosing it? ye shall say thus, The Lord hath need of it.
32 Àwọn tí a rán sì mú ọ̀nà wọn pọ̀n, wọ́n sì bá a gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti wí fún wọn.
And they who were sent went and found just as he told them.
33 Bí wọ́n sì ti ń tú ọmọ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ náà, àwọn Olúwa rẹ̀ bi wọ́n pé, “Èéṣe tí ẹ̀yin fi ń tu kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ náà?”
And as they were loosing the colt, its owners said to them, Why are ye loosing the colt?
34 Wọ́n sì wí pé, “Olúwa fẹ́ lò ó.”
And they said, The Lord hath need of it.
35 Wọ́n sì fà á tọ Jesu wá, wọ́n sì tẹ́ aṣọ sí ẹ̀yìn ọmọ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ náà, wọ́n sì gbé Jesu kà á.
And they brought it to Jesus; and having thrown their garments on the colt, they set Jesus thereon.
36 Bí ó sì ti ń lọ wọ́n tẹ́ aṣọ wọn sí ọ̀nà.
And as he went on, they spread their garments in the road.
37 Bí ó sì ti súnmọ́ etí ibẹ̀ ní gẹ̀rẹ́gẹ̀rẹ́ òkè olifi, gbogbo àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í yọ̀, wọ́n sì fi ohùn rara yin Ọlọ́run, nítorí iṣẹ́ ńlá gbogbo tí wọ́n ti rí,
And as he was drawing near, just at the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the miracles which they had seen;
38 wí pé, “Olùbùkún ni ọba tí ó ń bọ̀ wá ní orúkọ Olúwa!” “Àlàáfíà ní ọ̀run, àti ògo ni òkè ọ̀run!”
saying, Blessed be the King in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest heavens!
39 Àwọn kan nínú àwọn Farisi nínú àwùjọ náà sì wí fún un pé, “Olùkọ́ bá àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ wí.”
And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said to him, Teacher, rebuke thy disciples.
40 Ó sì dá wọn lóhùn, ó wí fún wọn pé, “Mo wí fún yín, bí àwọn wọ̀nyí bá pa ẹnu wọn mọ́, àwọn òkúta yóò kígbe sókè.”
And he answering said, I tell you, that if these are silent, the stones will cry out.
41 Nígbà tí ó sì súnmọ́ etílé, ó síjú wo ìlú náà, ó sọkún sí i lórí,
And when he came near, as he beheld the city, he wept over it,
42 Ó ń wí pé, “Ìbá ṣe pé ìwọ mọ̀, lónìí yìí, àní ìwọ, ohun tí í ṣe tí àlàáfíà rẹ! Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí wọ́n pamọ́ kúrò lójú rẹ.
saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, and that in this thy day, the things that concern thy peace! but now they are hidden from thine eyes.
43 Nítorí ọjọ́ ń bọ̀ fún ọ, tí àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ yóò mọ odi bèbè yí ọ ká, àní tí wọn yóò sì yí ọ ká, wọn ó sì ká ọ mọ́ níhà gbogbo.
For the days will come upon thee, when thine enemies will cast up a mound about thee, and compass thee round, and shut thee in on every side,
44 Wọn ó sì wó ọ palẹ̀ ìwọ àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ pẹ̀lú rẹ; wọn kì yóò sì fi òkúta kan sílẹ̀ lórí ara wọn; nítorí ìwọ kò mọ ọjọ́ ìbẹ̀wò rẹ.”
and will level thee with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they will not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
45 Ó sì wọ inú tẹmpili lọ, ó sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí lé àwọn tí ń tà nínú rẹ̀ sóde;
And entering the temple, he began to cast out those who sold,
46 Ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “A ti kọ̀wé rẹ̀ pé, ‘Ilé mi yóò jẹ́ ilé àdúrà?’ Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin ti sọ ọ́ di ihò àwọn ọlọ́ṣà.”
saying to them, It is written, “And my house shall be a house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of robbers.”
47 Ó sì ń kọ́ni lójoojúmọ́ ní tẹmpili, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn olórí àlùfáà, àti àwọn akọ̀wé, àti àwọn olórí àwọn ènìyàn ń wá ọ̀nà láti pa á.
And he was teaching daily in the temple; but the chief priests, and the scribes, and the leading men of the people sought to destroy him.
48 Wọn kò sì rí nǹkan kan tí wọn ìbá ṣe; nítorí gbogbo ènìyàn ṣù mọ́ ọn láti gbọ́rọ̀ rẹ̀.
And they could not find an opportunity of doing any thing; for all the people hung upon him, listening.
