Lukas 16
1 Eta erran ciecén bere discipuluey- ere, Guiçon abratsbat cen despenserbat çuenic, haur accusa cedin hura baithan, haren onén irioile beçala:
Jesus also said to His disciples, “There was a rich man whose manager was accused of wasting his possessions.
2 Eta hura deithuric erran cieçón, Cer dançut haur hiçaz? renda eçac eure despensaren contua: ecen guehiagoric ecin aiçate despensér.
So he called him in to ask, ‘What is this I hear about you? Turn in an account of your management, for you cannot be manager any longer.’
3 Orduan erran ceçan bere baithan despenserac, Cer eguinen dut, neure nabussiac despensaren carguä edequiten drautanaz gueroz? aitzurreric ecin daidit, esque ebiltera ahalque naiz.
The manager said to himself, ‘What shall I do, now that my master is taking away my position? I am too weak to dig and too ashamed to beg.
4 Badaquit cer eguinen dudan, despensergoatic kendu naicenean recebi neçatençát batzuc bere etchetara.
I know what I will do, so that after my removal from management, people will welcome me into their homes.’
5 Orduan deithuric bere nabussiaren çordunetaric batbedera, erran cieçón lehenari, Cembat çor draucac ene nabussiari?
And he called in each one of his master’s debtors. ‘How much do you owe my master?’ he asked the first.
6 Eta hunec erran ceçan, Ehun barril olio: eta harc erran cieçón, Har eçac eure cedulá, eta iarriric fitetz, scriba eçac berroguey eta hamar
‘A hundred measures of olive oil,’ he answered. ‘Take your bill,’ said the manager. ‘Sit down quickly, and write fifty.’
7 Guero berce bati erran cieçón, Eta hic cembat çorduc? eta harc erran ceçan, Ehun neurri ogui. Orduan harc erran cieçón, Har eçac eure cedulá, eta scriba eçac lauroguey.
Then he asked another, ‘And how much do you owe?’ ‘A hundred measures of wheat,’ he replied. ‘Take your bill and write eighty,’ he told him.
8 Eta lauda ceçan nabussiac despenser gaichtoa, ceren çuhurqui eguin vkan baitzuen: hunegatic mundu hunetaco haourrac çuhurrago dirade, ecen ez arguico haourrac bere generationean (aiōn g165)
The master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly. For the sons of this age are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the sons of light. (aiōn g165)
9 Eta nic erraiten drauçuet, Eguin itzaçue çuendaco adisquideac abrastassun iniquoéz falta çaiteztenean recebi çaitzatençat tabernacle eternaletara. (aiōnios g166)
I tell you, use worldly wealth to make friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, they will welcome you into eternal dwellings. (aiōnios g166)
10 Gauça chipienetan leyal dena, handian-ere leyal da: eta gauça chipian iniusto dena, handian-ere iniusto da.
Whoever is faithful with very little will also be faithful with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.
11 Bada baldin abrastassun iniquoetan leyal içan ezpaçarete, abrastassun eguiazcoetan nor fidaturen çaiçue?
So if you have not been faithful with worldly wealth, who will entrust you with true riches?
12 Eta baldin berceren gauçán leyal içan ezpaçarete, çuen dena norc emanen drauçue?
And if you have not been faithful with the belongings of another, who will give you belongings of your own?
13 Cerbitzaric batec-ere ecin bi nabussi cerbitza ditzaque: ecen edo batari gaitz eritziren drauca, eta berceari on: edo batarequin eduquiren du eta bercea menospreciaturen. Ecin cerbitza ditzaqueçue Iaincoa, eta abrastassunac
No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.”
14 Eta gauça hauc guciac ençuten cituzten Phariseuec-ere, cein baitziraden auaritioso: eta harçaz truffatzen ciraden
The Pharisees, who were lovers of money, heard all of this and were scoffing at Jesus.
15 Eta erran ciecén, Çuec çarete çuen buruäc iustificatzen dituçuenac guiçonén aitzinean: baina Iaincoac badaçaguzqui çuen bihotzac: ecen guiçoney gora çayena, abominatione da Iaincoaren aitzinean.
So He said to them, “You are the ones who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. For what is prized among men is detestable before God.
16 Legueac eta Prophetéc iraun duté Ioannesganano: dembora harçaz gueroztic Iaincoaren resumá euangelizatzen da, eta batbederac hura du bortchatzen.
The Law and the Prophets were proclaimed until John. Since that time, the gospel of the kingdom of God is being preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.
17 Errachago da ceruä eta lurra iragan ditecen, ecen ez Leguearen punctu hutsbat eror dadin.
But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for a single stroke of a pen to drop out of the Law.
18 Norc-ere vtziten baitu bere emaztea, eta berce batequin ezconcen baita, adulterio iauquiten du: eta senharrac vtzi duenarequin ezconcen denac, adulterio iauquiten du.
Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and he who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
19 Cen bada guiçon abratsbat, eta veztitzen cen escarlataz eta cetaz, eta egun oroz tractatzen cen vngui eta magnificoqui.
Now there was a rich man dressed in purple and fine linen, who lived each day in joyous splendor.
20 Cen halaber paubrebat Lazaro deitzen cenic, cein baitzetzan haren borthán, çauriz bethea:
And a beggar named Lazarus lay at his gate, covered with sores
21 Eta çuen desir abratsaren mahainetic erorten ciraden appurretaric assetzeco, baina are orac ethorten ciraden eta haren çauriac limicatzen cituztén.
and longing to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.
22 Guertha cedin bada hil baitzedin paubrea, eta eraman baitzedin Aingueruéz Abrahamen bulharrera: hil cedin bada abrats hura-ere, eta ohortze içan cen.
One day the beggar died and was carried by the angels to Abraham’s side. And the rich man also died and was buried.
23 Eta iffernuetan bere beguiac goiti altchaturic tormentetan cela, ikus ceçan Abraham vrrundanic, eta Lazaro haren bulharrean: (Hadēs g86)
In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham from afar, with Lazarus by his side. (Hadēs g86)
24 Orduan harc oihuz cegoela erran ceçan, Aita Abrahám, auc misericordia niçaz, eta igor eçac Lazaro, busta deçan bere erhi mocoa vrean, eta refresca dieçadan mihia, ecen tormentatzen nauc gar hunetan.
So he cried out, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue. For I am in agony in this fire.’
25 Eta erran ceçan Abrahamec, Semé, orhoit adi ecen eure onac eure vician recebitu dituala, eta Lazaroc halaber gaitzac: eta orain haur consolatzen duc, eta hi tormentatzen aiz.
But Abraham answered, ‘Child, remember that during your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things. But now he is comforted here, while you are in agony.
26 Eta berce alde, gure eta çuen artean abysmo handibat duc: hala non hemendic çuetarát iragan nahi diradenac, ecin baititezque, ezeta hortic hunát iragan.
And besides all this, a great chasm has been fixed between us and you, so that even those who wish cannot cross from here to you, nor can anyone cross from there to us.’
27 Eta erran ceçan harc, Othoitz eguiten drauat beraz, Aitá, igor deçán hori ene aitaren etchera.
‘Then I beg you, father,’ he said, ‘send Lazarus to my father’s house,
28 Ecen bacitiat borz anaye, hæy testifica diecençát, hec-ere eztatocençat tormentazco leku hunetara.
for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also end up in this place of torment.’
29 Diotsa Abrahamec, Bacitié Moyses eta Prophetác: ençun bitzate hec.
But Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the prophets; let your brothers listen to them.’
30 Baina harc erran ceçan, Ez, aita Abrahám: baina baldin hiletaric cembeit ioan badadi hetara, emendaturen dituc.
‘No, father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but if someone is sent to them from the dead, they will repent.’
31 Eta Abrahamec erran cieçón, Baldin Moyses eta Prophetác ençuten ezpadituzte, ezeta baldin cembeit hiletaric resuscita badadi-ere, eztié sinhetsiren.
Then Abraham said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets, they will not be persuaded even if someone rises from the dead.’”
