< Luke 7 >
1 Nígbà tí ó sì parí gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ fun àwọn ènìyàn, ó wọ Kapernaumu lọ.
And when he completed all his sayings in the ears of the people, he went into Capernaum;
2 Ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ balógun ọ̀rún kan, tí ó ṣọ̀wọ́n fún un, ṣàìsàn, ó sì ń kú lọ.
and a certain centurion's servant being ill, was about to die, who was much valued by him,
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.
and having heard about Jesus, he sent unto him elders of the Jews, beseeching him, that having come he might thoroughly save 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.
And they, having come near unto Jesus, were calling upon him earnestly, saying — 'He is worthy to whom thou shalt do this,
5 Nítorí tí ó fẹ́ràn orílẹ̀-èdè wa, ó sì ti kọ́ Sinagọgu kan fún wa.”
for he doth love our nation, and the synagogue he did build to us.'
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.
And Jesus was going on with them, and now when he is not far distant from the house the centurion sent unto him friends, saying to him, 'Sir, be not troubled, for I am not worthy that under my roof thou mayest enter;
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.
wherefore not even myself thought I worthy to come unto thee, but say in a word, and my lad shall 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 also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers, and I say to this [one], Go, and he goeth; and to another, Be coming, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doth [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.”
And having heard these things Jesus wondered at him, and having turned to the multitude following him, he said, 'I say to you, not even in Israel so much faith did I find;'
10 Nígbà tí àwọn oníṣẹ́ sì padà sí ilé, wọ́n bá ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ náà tí ń ṣàìsàn, ara rẹ̀ ti dá.
and those sent, having turned back to the house, found the ailing servant in 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.
And it came to pass, on the morrow, he was going on to a city called Nain, and there were going with him many of his disciples, and a great multitude,
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.
and as he came nigh to the gate of the city, then, lo, one dead was being carried forth, an only son of his mother, and she a widow, and a great multitude of the city was with her.
13 Nígbà tí Olúwa sì rí i, àánú rẹ̀ ṣe é, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Má sọkún mọ́.”
And the Lord having seen her, was moved with compassion towards her, and said to her, 'Be not weeping;'
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!”
and having come near, he touched the bier, and those bearing [it] stood still, and he said, 'Young man, to thee I say, Arise;'
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 sat up, and began to speak, and he gave him 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!”
and fear took hold of all, and they were glorifying God, saying — 'A great prophet hath risen among us,' and — 'God did look upon His people.'
17 Òkìkí rẹ̀ sì kàn ní gbogbo Judea, àti gbogbo agbègbè tí ó yí i ká.
And the account of this went forth in all Judea about him, and in all the region around.
18 Àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn Johanu sì sọ gbogbo nǹkan wọ̀nyí fún un.
And the disciples of John told 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?”
and John having called near a certain two of his disciples, sent unto Jesus, saying, 'Art thou he who is coming, or for another do we look?'
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?’”
And having come near to him, the men said, 'John the Baptist sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he who is coming, or for another do we look?'
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.
And in that hour he cured many from sicknesses, and plagues, and evil spirits, and to many blind he granted sight.
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.
And Jesus answering said to them, 'Having gone on, report to John what ye saw and heard, that blind men do see again, lame do walk, lepers are cleansed, deaf do hear, dead are raised, poor have good news proclaimed;
23 Alábùkún fún sì ni ẹnikẹ́ni tí kò kọsẹ̀ lára mi.”
and happy is he whoever may not be stumbled in 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?
And the messengers of John having gone away, he began to say unto the multitudes concerning John: 'What have ye gone forth to the wilderness to look on? a reed by the wind shaken?
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!
but what have ye gone forth to see? a man in soft garments clothed? lo, they in splendid apparellings, and living in luxury, are in the houses of kings!
26 Ṣùgbọ́n kí ni ẹ̀yin jáde lọ wò? Wòlíì? Lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín, ó sì ju wòlíì lọ!
'But what have ye gone forth to see? a prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much 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 he concerning whom it hath been written, Lo, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee;
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.”
for I say to you, a greater prophet, among those born of women, than John the Baptist there is not; but the least in the reign 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.
And all the people having heard, and the tax-gatherers, declared God righteous, having been baptized with 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 the lawyers, the counsel of God did put away for themselves, not having been baptized by him.
31 Jesu sì wí pé, “Kí ni èmi ìbá fi àwọn ènìyàn ìran yìí wé? Kí ni wọ́n sì jọ?
And the Lord said, 'To what, then, shall I liken the men of this generation? and to 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 to children, to those sitting in a market-place, and calling one to another, and saying, We piped to you, and ye did not dance, we mourned to you, and ye 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 ye say, He hath 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 ye say, Lo, a man, a glutton, and a wine drinker, a friend of tax-gatherers and sinners;
35 Ṣùgbọ́n ọgbọ́n ni a dá láre nípasẹ̀ ọmọ rẹ.”
and the wisdom was justified from 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.
And a certain one of the Pharisees was asking him that he might eat with him, and having gone into the house of the Pharisee he reclined (at meat),
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,
and lo, a woman in the city, who was a sinner, having known that he reclineth (at meat) in the house of the Pharisee, having provided an alabaster box of ointment,
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.
and having stood behind, beside his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with the tears, and with the hairs of her head she was wiping, and was kissing his feet, and was anointing with the ointment.
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.”
And the Pharisee who did call him, having seen, spake within himself, saying, 'This one, if he were a prophet, would have known who and of what kind [is] the woman who doth touch him, that 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.”
And Jesus answering said unto him, 'Simon, I have something to say to thee;' and he saith, 'Teacher, say on.'
41 “Ayánilówó kan wà tí ó ní ajigbèsè méjì: ọ̀kan jẹ ẹ́ ní ẹ̀ẹ́dẹ́gbẹ̀ta owó idẹ, èkejì sì jẹ ẹ́ ní àádọ́ta.
'Two debtors were to a certain creditor; the one was owing five hundred denaries, 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?”
and they not having [wherewith] to give back, he forgave both; which then of them, say thou, 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.”
And Simon answering said, 'I suppose that to whom he forgave the more;' and he said to him, 'Rightly thou didst judge.'
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 having turned unto the woman, he said to Simon, 'Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house; water for my feet thou didst not give, but this woman with tears did wet my feet, and with the hairs of her head did wipe;
45 Ìwọ kò fi ìfẹnukonu fún mi: ṣùgbọ́n òun, nígbà tí mo ti wọ ilé, kò dẹ́kun ẹnu fífi kò mí lẹ́sẹ̀.

46 Ìwọ kò fi òróró pa mí lórí, ṣùgbọ́n òun ti fi òróró pa mí lẹ́sẹ̀.
with oil my head thou didst not anoint, but this woman with ointment did anoint my feet;

therefore I say to thee, her many sins have been forgiven, because she did love much; but to whom little is forgiven, little he doth love.'
48 Ó sì wí fún un pé, “A dárí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ jì ọ́!”
And he said to her, 'Thy sins have been 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?”
and those reclining with him (at meat) began to say within themselves, 'Who is this, who also doth forgive sins?'
50 Ó sì dáhùn wí fún obìnrin náà pé, “Ìgbàgbọ́ rẹ gbà ọ́ là, máa lọ ní àlàáfíà.”
and he said unto the woman, 'Thy faith have saved thee, be going on to peace.'
