Luke 7
1 Nígbà tí ó sì parí gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ fun àwọn ènìyàn, ó wọ Kapernaumu lọ.
When Jesus had concluded His discourse in the hearing of the people, He went to Capernaum.
2 Ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ balógun ọ̀rún kan, tí ó ṣọ̀wọ́n fún un, ṣàìsàn, ó sì ń kú lọ.
There a highly valued servant of a centurion was sick and about to die.
3 Nígbà tí ó sì gbúròó Jesu, ó rán àwọn àgbàgbà Júù sí i, ó ń bẹ̀ ẹ́ pé kí ó wá mú ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ òun láradá.
When the centurion heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders to ask Him to come and heal his servant.
4 Nígbà tí wọ́n sì dé ọ̀dọ̀ Jesu, wọ́n fi ìtara bẹ̀ ẹ́, pé, “Ó yẹ ní ẹni tí òun ìbá ṣe èyí fún.
They came to Jesus and pleaded with Him earnestly, “This man is worthy to have You grant this,
5 Nítorí tí ó fẹ́ràn orílẹ̀-èdè wa, ó sì ti kọ́ Sinagọgu kan fún wa.”
for he loves our nation and has built our synagogue.”
6 Jesu sì ń bá wọn lọ. Nígbà tí kò sì jìn sí etí ilé mọ́, balógun ọ̀rún náà rán àwọn ọ̀rẹ́ sí i, pé, “Olúwa, má ṣe yọ ara rẹ lẹ́nu, nítorí tí èmi kò yẹ tí ìwọ ìbá fi wọ abẹ́ òrùlé mi.
So Jesus went with them. But when He was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends with the message: “Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy to have You come under my roof.
7 Nítorí náà èmi kò sì rò pé èmi náà yẹ láti tọ̀ ọ́ wá, ṣùgbọ́n sọ ní gbólóhùn kan, a ó sì mú ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ mi láradá.
That is why I did not consider myself worthy to come to You. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed.
8 Nítorí èmi náà pẹ̀lú jẹ́ ẹni tí a fi sí abẹ́ àṣẹ, tí ó ní ọmọ-ogun lẹ́yìn mi, mo sì wí fún ọ̀kan pé, ‘Lọ,’ a sì lọ; àti fún òmíràn pé, ‘Wá,’ a sì wá; àti fún ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ mi pé, ‘Ṣe èyí,’ a sì ṣe é.”
For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell one to go, and he goes; and another to come, and he comes. I tell my servant to do something, and he does it.”
9 Nígbà tí Jesu gbọ́ nǹkan wọ̀nyí, ẹnu sì yà, ó sì yípadà sí ìjọ ènìyàn tí ń tọ̀ ọ́ lẹ́yìn, ó wí pé, “Mo wí fún yín pé èmi kò rí irú ìgbàgbọ́ ńlá bí èyí nínú àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli.”
When Jesus heard this, He marveled at the centurion. Turning to the crowd following Him, He said, “I tell you, not even in Israel have I found such great faith.”
10 Nígbà tí àwọn oníṣẹ́ sì padà sí ilé, wọ́n bá ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ náà tí ń ṣàìsàn, ara rẹ̀ ti dá.
And when the messengers returned to the house, they found the servant in good health.
11 Ní ọjọ́ kejì, ó lọ sí ìlú kan tí a ń pè ní Naini, àwọn púpọ̀ nínú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ sì ń bá a lọ àti ọ̀pọ̀ ìjọ ènìyàn.
Soon afterward, Jesus went to a town called Nain. His disciples went with Him, accompanied by a large crowd.
12 Bí ó sì ti súnmọ́ ẹnu ibodè ìlú náà, sì kíyèsi i, wọ́n ń gbé òkú ọkùnrin kan jáde, ọmọ kan ṣoṣo náà tí ìyá rẹ̀ bí, ó sì jẹ́ opó: ọ̀pọ̀ ìjọ ènìyàn ìlú náà sì wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀.
As He approached the town gate, He saw a dead man being carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the town was with her.
13 Nígbà tí Olúwa sì rí i, àánú rẹ̀ ṣe é, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Má sọkún mọ́.”
When the Lord saw her, He had compassion on her and said, “Do not weep.”
14 Ó sì wá, ó sì fi ọwọ́ tọ́ pósí náà: àwọn tí ń rù ú dúró jẹ́. Ó sì wí pé, “Ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin, mo wí fún ọ, dìde!”
Then He went up and touched the coffin, and those carrying it stood still. “Young man,” He said, “I tell you, get up!”
15 Ẹni tí ó kú náà sì dìde jókòó, ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí i fọhùn. Ó sì fà á lé ìyá rẹ̀ lọ́wọ́.
And the dead man sat up and began to speak! Then Jesus gave him back to his mother.
16 Ẹ̀rù sì ba gbogbo wọn: wọ́n sì yin Ọlọ́run lógo, pé, “Wòlíì ńlá dìde nínú wa,” àti pé, “Ọlọ́run sì wá bẹ àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ wò!”
A sense of awe swept over all of them, and they glorified God. “A great prophet has appeared among us!” they said. “God has visited His people!”
17 Òkìkí rẹ̀ sì kàn ní gbogbo Judea, àti gbogbo agbègbè tí ó yí i ká.
And the news about Jesus spread throughout Judea and all the surrounding region.
18 Àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn Johanu sì sọ gbogbo nǹkan wọ̀nyí fún un.
Then John’s disciples informed him about all these things.
19 Nígbà tí Johanu sì pe àwọn méjì nínú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀, ó rán wọn sọ́dọ̀ Olúwa, wí pé, “Ìwọ ni ẹni tí ń bọ̀, tàbí kí a máa retí ẹlòmíràn?”
So John called two of his disciples and sent them to ask the Lord, “Are You the One who was to come, or should we look for someone else?”
20 Nígbà tí àwọn ọkùnrin náà sì dé ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀, wọ́n wí pé, “Johanu onítẹ̀bọmi rán wa sọ́dọ̀ rẹ, pé, ‘Ìwọ ni ẹni tí ń bọ̀, tàbí kí a máa retí ẹlòmíràn?’”
When the men came to Jesus, they said, “John the Baptist sent us to ask, ‘Are You the One who was to come, or should we look for someone else?’”
21 Ní wákàtí náà, ó sì ṣe ìmúláradá ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ènìyàn nínú àìsàn, àti ààrùn, àti ẹ̀mí búburú; ó sì fi ìríran fún ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àwọn afọ́jú.
At that very hour Jesus healed many people of their diseases, afflictions, and evil spirits, and He gave sight to many who were blind.
22 Jesu sì dáhùn ó wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ padà lọ, ẹ ròyìn nǹkan tí ẹ̀yin rí, tí ẹ̀yin sì gbọ́ fún Johanu: àwọn afọ́jú ń ríran, àwọn amúnkùn ún rìn, a sọ àwọn adẹ́tẹ̀ di mímọ́, àwọn adití ń gbọ́rọ̀, a ń jí àwọn òkú dìde, àti fún àwọn òtòṣì ni à ń wàásù ìyìnrere.
So He replied, “Go back and report to John what you have seen and heard: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is preached to the poor.
23 Alábùkún fún sì ni ẹnikẹ́ni tí kò kọsẹ̀ lára mi.”
Blessed is the one who does not fall away on account of Me.”
24 Nígbà tí àwọn oníṣẹ́ Johanu padà lọ, ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í sọ fún ìjọ ènìyàn ní ti Johanu pé, “Kí ni ẹ̀yin jáde lọ sí ijù lọ wò? Ewéko tí afẹ́fẹ́ ń mì?
After John’s messengers had left, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed swaying in the wind?
25 Ṣùgbọ́n kín ni ẹ̀yin jáde lọ wò? Ọkùnrin tí a wọ̀ ní aṣọ fẹ́lẹ́fẹ́lẹ́? Wò ó, àwọn tí á wọ̀ ní aṣọ ògo, tí wọ́n sì ń jayé, ń bẹ ní ààfin ọba!
Otherwise, what did you go out to see? A man dressed in fine clothes? Look, those who wear elegant clothing and live in luxury are found in palaces.
26 Ṣùgbọ́n kí ni ẹ̀yin jáde lọ wò? Wòlíì? Lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín, ó sì ju wòlíì lọ!
What then did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.
27 Èyí yìí ni ẹni tí a ti kọ̀wé nítorí rẹ̀ pé: “‘Wò ó, èmi yóò rán oníṣẹ́ mi síwájú rẹ; ẹni tí yóò tún ọ̀nà rẹ ṣe níwájú rẹ.’
This is the one about whom it is written: ‘Behold, I will send My messenger ahead of You, who will prepare Your way before You.’
28 Mo wí fún yín nínú àwọn tí a bí nínú obìnrin, kò sí wòlíì tí ó pọ̀ ju Johanu Onítẹ̀bọmi lọ, ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ó kéré jùlọ ní ìjọba Ọlọ́run, ó pọ̀jù ú lọ.”
I tell you, among those born of women there is no one greater than John, yet even the least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.”
29 (Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn tí ó gbọ́ àti àwọn agbowó òde, wọ́n dá Ọlọ́run láre, nítorí tí a fi ìtẹ̀bọmi Johanu tẹ̀ wọn bọ mi.
All the people who heard this, even the tax collectors, acknowledged God’s justice. For they had received the baptism of John.
30 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn Farisi àti àwọn amòfin kọ ète Ọlọ́run fún ara wọn, a kò bamitiisi wọn lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀.)
But the Pharisees and experts in the law rejected God’s purpose for themselves, because they had not been baptized by John.
31 Jesu sì wí pé, “Kí ni èmi ìbá fi àwọn ènìyàn ìran yìí wé? Kí ni wọ́n sì jọ?
“To what, then, can I compare the men of this generation? What are they like?
32 Wọ́n dàbí àwọn ọmọ kékeré tí ó jókòó ní ibi ọjà, tí wọ́n sì ń kọ sí ara wọn, tí wọ́n sì ń wí pé, “‘Àwa fọn fèrè fún yín, ẹ̀yin kò jó, àwa sì ṣọ̀fọ̀ fún yín, ẹ̀yin kò sọkún!’
They are like children sitting in the marketplace and calling out to one another: ‘We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not weep.’
33 Nítorí Johanu Onítẹ̀bọmi wá, kò jẹ àkàrà, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò sì mu ọtí wáìnì, ẹ̀yin sì wí pé, ‘Ó ní ẹ̀mí èṣù?’
For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon!’
34 Ọmọ ènìyàn dé, ó ń jẹ, ó sì ń mu, ẹ̀yin sì wí pé, ‘Wò ó, ọ̀jẹun, àti ọ̀mùtí, ọ̀rẹ́ àwọn agbowó òde àti àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀!’
The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Look at this glutton and drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’
35 Ṣùgbọ́n ọgbọ́n ni a dá láre nípasẹ̀ ọmọ rẹ.”
But wisdom is vindicated by all her children.”
36 Farisi kan sì rọ̀ ọ́ kí ó wá bá òun jẹun, ó sì wọ ilé Farisi náà lọ ó sì jókòó láti jẹun.
Then one of the Pharisees invited Jesus to eat with him, and He entered the Pharisee’s house and reclined at the table.
37 Sì kíyèsi i, obìnrin kan wà ní ìlú náà, ẹni tí i ṣe ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀, nígbà tí ó mọ̀ pé Jesu jókòó, ó ń jẹun ní ilé Farisi, ó mú ṣágo kékeré alabasita òróró ìkunra wá,
When a sinful woman from that town learned that Jesus was dining there, she brought an alabaster jar of perfume.
38 Ó sì dúró tì í lẹ́bàá ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ lẹ́yìn, ó ń sọkún, ó sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí i fi omijé wẹ̀ ẹ́ ní ẹsẹ̀, ó sì ń fi irun orí rẹ nù ún nù, ó sì ń fi ẹnu kò ó ní ẹsẹ̀, ó sì ń fi òróró kùn wọ́n.
As she stood behind Him at His feet weeping, she began to wet His feet with her tears and wipe them with her hair. Then she kissed His feet and anointed them with the perfume.
39 Nígbà tí Farisi tí ó pè é sì rí i, ó wí nínú ara rẹ̀ pé, “Ọkùnrin yìí ìbá ṣe wòlíì, ìbá mọ ẹni àti irú ẹni tí obìnrin yìí jẹ́ tí ń fi ọwọ́ kàn an, nítorí ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ ni.”
When the Pharisee who had invited Jesus saw this, he said to himself, “If this man were a prophet, He would know who this is and what kind of woman is touching Him—for she is a sinner!”
40 Jesu sì dáhùn, ó wí fún un pé, “Simoni, Mo ní ohun kan sọ fún ọ.” Ó sì dáhùn pé, “Olùkọ́ máa wí.”
But Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” “Tell me, Teacher,” he said.
41 “Ayánilówó kan wà tí ó ní ajigbèsè méjì: ọ̀kan jẹ ẹ́ ní ẹ̀ẹ́dẹ́gbẹ̀ta owó idẹ, èkejì sì jẹ ẹ́ ní àádọ́ta.
“Two men were debtors to a certain moneylender. One owed him five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
42 Nígbà tí wọn kò sì ní ohun tí wọn ó san, ó dáríjì àwọn méjèèjì. Wí nínú àwọn méjèèjì, ta ni yóò fẹ́ ẹ jù?”
When they were unable to repay him, he forgave both of them. Which one, then, will love him more?”
43 Simoni dáhùn wí pé, “Mo ṣe bí ẹni tí ó dáríjì jù ni.” Jesu wí fún un pé, “Ìwọ ti dájọ́ náà dáradára.”
“I suppose the one who was forgiven more,” Simon replied. “You have judged correctly,” Jesus said.
44 Ó sì yípadà sí obìnrin náà, ó wí fún Simoni pé, “Wo obìnrin yìí? Èmi wọ ilé rẹ, ìwọ kò fi omi wẹ ẹsẹ̀ fún mi: ṣùgbọ́n, omijé rẹ̀ ni ó fi ń rọ̀jò sí mi lẹ́sẹ̀ irun orí ni ó fi ń nù wọ́n nù.
And turning toward the woman, He said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? When I entered your house, you did not give Me water for My feet, but she wet My feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair.
45 Ìwọ kò fi ìfẹnukonu fún mi: ṣùgbọ́n òun, nígbà tí mo ti wọ ilé, kò dẹ́kun ẹnu fífi kò mí lẹ́sẹ̀.
You did not greet Me with a kiss, but she has not stopped kissing My feet since I arrived.
46 Ìwọ kò fi òróró pa mí lórí, ṣùgbọ́n òun ti fi òróró pa mí lẹ́sẹ̀.
You did not anoint My head with oil, but she has anointed My feet with perfume.
47 Ǹjẹ́ mo wí fún ọ, A dárí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀ tí ó pọ̀ jì í: nítorí tí ó ní ìfẹ́ púpọ̀: ẹni tí a sì dárí díẹ̀ jì, òun náà ni ó ní ìfẹ́ díẹ̀.”
Therefore I tell you, because her many sins have been forgiven, she has loved much. But he who has been forgiven little loves little.”
48 Ó sì wí fún un pé, “A dárí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ jì ọ́!”
Then Jesus said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
49 Àwọn tí ó bá a jókòó jẹun sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í rò nínú ara wọn pé, “Ta ni èyí tí ń dárí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ji ni pẹ̀lú?”
But those at the table began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”
50 Ó sì dáhùn wí fún obìnrin náà pé, “Ìgbàgbọ́ rẹ gbà ọ́ là, máa lọ ní àlàáfíà.”
And Jesus told the woman, “Your faith has saved you; go in peace.”
