Luke 10
1 Now after these things, the Lord also appointed seventy others, and sent them two by two ahead of him into every city and place where he was about to come.
Mgbe nke a gasịrị, Onyenwe anyị họpụtara iri mmadụ asaa na abụọ ndị ọzọ, zipụ ha mmadụ abụọ abụọ ka ha buru ya ụzọ gaa nʼobodo niile nakwa ebe niile ọ na-achọ ịga.
2 Then he said to them, “The harvest is indeed plentiful, but the laborers are few. Pray therefore to the Lord of the harvest, that he may send out laborers into his harvest.
Ọ sịrị ha, “Owuwe ihe ubi dị ukwuu ma ndị ọrụ dị naanị ole na ole. Ya mere, rịọọnụ Onyenwe owuwe ihe ubi ka o zite ndị ọrụ nʼowuwe ihe ubi ya.
3 Go your ways. Behold, I send you out as lambs among wolves.
Gaanụ! Ma lee, ana m ezipu unu dị ka ụmụ atụrụ nʼetiti agụ.
4 Carry no purse, nor wallet, nor sandals. Greet no one on the way.
Unu ewerekwala ego maọbụ akpa maọbụ akpụkpọụkwụ. Unu ekelekwala onye ọbụla nʼụzọ.
5 Into whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace be to this house.’
“Mgbe unu banyere nʼụlọ ọbụla, burunu ụzọ sị, ‘Udo dịrị nʼụlọ a.’
6 If a son of peace is there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you.
Ọ bụrụ na mmadụ udo bi nʼụlọ ahụ, udo unu ga-adịnyekwara ya. Ọ bụrụkwanụ na onye bi nʼụlọ ahụ abụghị onye udo, udo unu ji bịa ga-alọghachitekwara unu.
7 Remain in that same house, eating and drinking the things they give, for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Don’t go from house to house.
Nọgidenụ nʼebe ahụ, na-erinụ ma na-aṅụkwanụ ihe ọbụla ha nyere unu, nʼihi na onye ọrụ kwesiri ịnata ụgwọ ọrụ ya. Unu esitela nʼotu ụlọ gaa nʼụlọ ọzọ.
8 Into whatever city you enter and they receive you, eat the things that are set before you.
“Ọ bụrụ na ndị bi nʼobodo unu batara anabata unu, rienụ ihe ọbụla ha nyere unu.
9 Heal the sick who are there and tell them, ‘God’s Kingdom has come near to you.’
Gwọọnụ ndị ọrịa nọ nʼebe ahụ, gwakwanụ ha sị, ‘Alaeze Chineke adịla unu nso.’
10 But into whatever city you enter and they don’t receive you, go out into its streets and say,
Ma mgbe unu banyere nʼobodo ọbụla ha jụ ịnabata unu, pụọnụ gaa nʼokporoụzọ ya kwuo sị,
11 ‘Even the dust from your city that clings to us, we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that God’s Kingdom has come near to you.’
‘Ọ bụladị aja si nʼobodo a nke nyapagidere nʼụkwụ anyị, anyị na-ehichapụ ya ka ọ bụrụ ihe ịdọ aka ntị nye gị. Otu ọ dị, matakwanụ nke a, na alaeze Chineke dị nso.’
12 I tell you, it will be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that city.
Ana m agwa unu na nʼụbọchị ahụ, ga-akara Sọdọm mma karịa obodo ahụ.
13 “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
“Ahụhụ ga-adịrị gị Korazin. Ahụhụ ga-adịrị gị Betsaida. Nʼihi na ọ bụrụ na ọrụ ebube a rụrụ nʼime unu ka a rụrụ na Taịa na Saịdọn ha gaara echegharị ogologo oge, nọdụ nʼakwa mkpe na ntụ.
14 But it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the judgment than for you.
Ọ ga-akara Taịa na Saịdọn mma nʼụbọchị ikpe karịa unu.
Ma gị Kapanọm! Ị na-eche na a ga-ebuli gị elu ruo eluigwe? Mba! Ị ga-arịda nʼala mmụọ! (Hadēs g86)
16 Whoever listens to you listens to me, and whoever rejects you rejects me. Whoever rejects me rejects him who sent me.”
“Onye ọbụla gere unu ntị, ọ bụ mụ ka o gere ntị. Onye ọbụla jụrụ ịnabata unu, ọ bụ mụ ka ọ jụrụ ịnabata. Onye ọbụla jụrụ ịnabata m jụrụ ịnabata onye zitere m.”
17 The seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!”
Iri mmadụ asaa na abụọ ahụ jiri ọṅụ lọta sị, “Onyenwe anyị, nʼaha gị, ọ bụladị ndị mmụọ ọjọọ rubeere anyị isi.”
18 He said to them, “I saw Satan having fallen like lightning from heaven.
Ọ sịrị ha, “Ahụrụ m ekwensu ka o si nʼeluigwe daa dị ka amụma.
19 Behold, I give you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Nothing will in any way hurt you.
Lee! Enyela m unu ikike ịzọkwasị agwọ na akpị ụkwụ, na imegide ike niile nke onye iro; ọ dịghị ihe ọbụla ga-emerụ unu ahụ.
20 Nevertheless, don’t rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”
Otu ọ dị, unu aṅụrịla ọṅụ nʼihi na mmụọ ọjọọ rubere unu isi, kama ṅụrịanụ ọṅụ nʼihi na e deela aha unu nʼeluigwe.”
21 In that same hour, Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, “I thank you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight.”
Nʼotu oge ahụ, o jupụtara nʼọṅụ nke Mmụọ Nsọ kwuo sị, “Nna, Onyenwe eluigwe na ụwa, ana m ekele gị nʼihi na ị zonarịrị ihe ndị a nʼebe ndị ọkachamara na ndị nwere amamihe nọ, ma ị kpughere ihe ndị a niile nye ụmụntakịrị. E, Nna, otu a ka o si masị uche gị ime ya.
22 Turning to the disciples, he said, “All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whomever the Son desires to reveal him.”
“Nna m enyefeela m ihe niile nʼaka. Ọ dịghị onye maara onye Ọkpara ahụ bụ, karịa Nna ahụ. Ọ dịkwaghị onye maara Nna ahụ karịa Ọkpara na ndị ahụ Ọkpara chọrọ igosi onye Nna ya bụ.”
23 Turning to the disciples, he said privately, “Blessed are the eyes which see the things that you see,
Mgbe ahụ ọ tụgharịrị gwa ndị na-eso ụzọ ya na nzuzo sị, “Ngọzị na-adịrị anya nke na-ahụ ihe unu na-ahụ ugbu a.
24 for I tell you that many prophets and kings desired to see the things which you see, and didn’t see them, and to hear the things which you hear, and didn’t hear them.”
Ana m asị unu, na ọtụtụ ndị amụma na ndị eze ka ọ gụrụ agụụ ịhụ ihe unu na-ahụ ma ha ahụghị ya, na ịnụ ihe unu na-anụ, ma ha anụghị ya.”
25 Behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested him, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
Otu ụbọchị, otu onye ozizi iwu biliri ịnwale ya. Ọ jụrụ ya, “Onye ozizi, gịnị ka m kwesiri ime ka m keta ndụ ebighị ebi?” (aiōnios g166)
26 He said to him, “What is written in the law? How do you read it?”
Ọ sịrị ya, “Gịnị ka e dere nʼiwu? Gịnị ka ị gụtara nʼime ya?”
27 He answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.”
Ọ zara sị, “‘Ị ga-eji obi gị niile, na mkpụrụobi gị niile, na ike gị niile, na uche gị niile, hụ Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị nʼanya’; ma ‘hụkwa onye agbataobi gị nʼanya dị ka onwe gị.’”
28 He said to him, “You have answered correctly. Do this, and you will live.”
Ọ sịrị ya, “Ị zara nke ọma. Gaa mee nke a ị ga-adị ndụ.”
29 But he, desiring to justify himself, asked Jesus, “Who is my neighbor?”
Ma iji gosi na ya bụ onye na-eme ihe ziri ezi, ọ sịrị Jisọs, “Onye kwanụ bụ onye agbataobi m?”
30 Jesus answered, “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who both stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead.
Jisọs sịrị ya, “Otu nwoke sitere Jerusalem na-aga Jeriko, ọ dabara nʼaka ndị ohi, ndị gbara ya ọtọ, tiekwa ya ihe, hapụ ya nʼọnọdụ ọdịndụ-ọnwụkamma laa.
31 By chance a certain priest was going down that way. When he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
Ma dị ka ihe si eme, otu onye nchụaja sitere ụzọ ahụ na-agafe. Mgbe ọ hụrụ ya, o sitere nʼakụkụ ụzọ nke ọzọ gafee.
32 In the same way a Levite also, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side.
Otu a kwa, otu onye Livayị bịarutekwara nʼebe ahụ, hụ ya, ma o sitere nʼakụkụ ụzọ nke ọzọ gafeekwa.
33 But a certain Samaritan, as he traveled, came where he was. When he saw him, he was moved with compassion,
Ma otu onye Sameria na-aga njem, mgbe ọ bịarutere nso nʼebe ahụ; hụ ya, o nwere ọmịiko nʼahụ ya.
34 came to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. He set him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
Ọ gara nso nʼebe ọ nọ, jiri mmanya na mmanụ wụsa nʼọnya ya, were akwa kechie ya. Ọ tụkwasịrị ya nʼelu ịnyịnya ibu ya, buba ya nʼụlọ ndị ije ebe o lekọtara ya anya nke ọma.
35 On the next day, when he departed, he took out two denarii, gave them to the host, and said to him, ‘Take care of him. Whatever you spend beyond that, I will repay you when I return.’
Nʼechi ya, o wepụtara mkpụrụ ego ọlaọcha abụọ nye onye na-elekọta ụlọ ndị ije ahụ sị ya, ‘Lezie ya anya nke ọma. M lọta aga m akwụghachi gị ihe ọbụla ọzọ i mefuru.’
36 Now which of these three do you think seemed to be a neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?”
“Onye nʼime mmadụ atọ ndị a ka i chere bụ onye gosiri onwe ya dị ka onye agbataobi nye nwoke ahụ nke dabara nʼaka ndị ohi?”
37 He said, “He who showed mercy on him.” Then Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.”
Ọ sịrị, “Ọ bụ onye ahụ meere ya ebere.” Jisọs sịrị ya, “Laa, gaa mee otu ahụ.”
38 As they went on their way, he entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house.
Mgbe ha na-aga nʼụzọ, ọ banyere nʼotu obodo nta ebe nwanyị a na-akpọ Mata nabatara ya nʼụlọ ya.
39 She had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet and heard his word.
O nwere nwanne nwanyị a na-akpọ Meri nke nọdụrụ ala nʼụkwụ Onyenwe anyị na-ege ntị nʼihe ọ na-ekwu.
40 But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she came up to him, and said, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister left me to serve alone? Ask her therefore to help me.”
Ma uche Mata gbasasịrị agbasa ebe ọ na-akwado maka ile ọbịa. Ọ bịakwutere ya sị ya, “Onyenwe anyị, ọ bụ na o metụghị gị nʼobi na nwanne m nwanyị hapụrụ naanị m ije ozi niile? Gwa ya ka ọ bịa nyere m aka.”
41 Jesus answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things,
Ma Onyenwe anyị zara ya sị, “Mata, Mata, ị na-echegbu onwe gị ma na-adọgbukwa onwe gị banyere ọtụtụ ihe,
42 but one thing is needed. Mary has chosen the good part, which will not be taken away from her.”
maọbụ naanị otu ihe dị mkpa, Meri ahọrọla nke ka mma, nke a na-agaghị anapụkwa ya.”
