San Lucas 15
1 YA manjijijot guato guiya güiya, todo y publicano, yan y manisao, para umaecungog güe.
Tax collectors and other “sinners” often used to come and listen to Jesus.
2 Ya mangogonggong y Fariseo sija, yan y escriba ilelegñija: Este na taotao, jaresisibeja y manisao, ya mañisijaja mañocho.
As a result the Pharisees and the religious teachers complained, “This man welcomes sinners, and eats with them.”
3 Ya jasangane sija ni este na acomparasion, ilegña:
So Jesus told them this story as an illustration.
4 Jaye na taotao guiya jamyo, y yanguin guaja gaña siento na quinilo, ya ufinalingaeguan ni y uno, ada ti ujanao ya udingo y nobentainuebe gui desierto asta qui jasoda ayo y malingo?
“Imagine a man who had a hundred sheep lost one of them. Wouldn't he leave the ninety-nine in the open pasture, and search for the one that's lost until he finds it?
5 Ya anae jasoda, jaapagaye ya jamagogofgüe.
When he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders.
6 Ya anae mato gui guimaña, jaagange todo y manamiguña, yan y tignangña, ya ilelegña nu sija: Nije tafanmagof, sa jagasja jusoda y gajo quinilo ni y guinin malingo.
Once he gets home, he calls his friends and neighbors together, saying, ‘Come and celebrate with me! I've found my lost sheep!’
7 Jusangane jamyo, na taegüenaoja locue uguaja gui langet, minagof yanguin un taotao na isao mañotsot, mas qui y nobentainuebe manunas na taotao ni y ti janesesita manmañotsot.
I tell you that there's more joy in heaven over a sinner that repents than over ninety-nine good people who don't need to repent.
8 Pat, jaye na palaoan, y yanguin uguaja iyoña dies na pidason salape, ya ufinalingaeguan ni y uno; ada ti usonggue y candet ya ubale y jalom guma, ya uguesaligao asta qui usoda?
Imagine a woman who has ten silver coins, and loses one of them. Wouldn't she light a lamp and sweep the house, carefully searching until she finds it?
9 Ya yanguin esta jasoda, jaagange y manamigaña, yan y tiguangña ya mandaña, ya ilelegña: Nije tafanmagof, sa jagasja jusoda y pidason salape ni y guinin malingo.
When she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbors together, saying, ‘Come and celebrate with me! I've found the silver coin that I lost.’
10 Taegüenaoja locue jusangane jamyo, na uguaja minagof gui menan y angjet Yuus, pot y un taotao na isao ni y mañotsot.
I tell you there is joy in the presence of God's angels over one sinner that repents.
11 Ya ilegña: Un taotao guaja dos lajiña:
Once there was a man who had two sons,” Jesus explained.
12 Ya y mas patgon, ilegña as tataña: Tata, naeyo ni y patteco gui güinaja ni y para guajo. Ya jafacae para sija ni y güinajaña.
“The younger one told his father, ‘Father, give me my inheritance now.’ So the man divided his property between them.
13 Ya ti megae na jaane malofan, anae y mas patgon janafandaña todo, ya mapos asta y chago na tano; ya jagasta todo y güinajaña güije gui guipot yan bisio di gula.
A few days later the younger son packed up what he had and left for a distant country. Here he wasted all his money living a reckless life.
14 Ya anae jagasta todo esta: mato un dangculon ñinalang güije na tano, ya jatutujon taena.
After he'd spent everything, the country was hit by a severe famine and he was starving.
15 Ya jumanao, ya jatituye gui un taotao güije na tano: ya tinago para y fangualuanña, para unachocho babue sija.
So he went and took a job with one of the farmers there who sent him to his fields to feed pigs.
16 Ya jatatanga na unabula tiyanña ni y lasas frijoles ni y jacacano y babue sija; ya taya ni un taotao numanaegüe.
He was so hungry that he would have eaten even the pig food, but no one gave him anything.
17 Ya anae numalo y jinasoña, ilegña: Cuanto na jotnaleron tata, mangaena pan, ya manmañoñobblaja, ya guajo güine jumatae ñalang!
When he came to his senses, he said to himself, ‘All of my father's workers have more than enough to eat—why am I dying from hunger here?
18 Bae jucajulo ya jujanao para as tata, ya jualog nu güiya: Tata, umisaoyo contra y langet, yan contra jago,
I'm going home to my father! I'll tell him, Father, I've sinned against heaven and against you.
19 Ti dignoyo mas na jumafanaan lajimo: naparejoyo yan y jotnalerumo sija.
I'm no longer worthy to be called your son. Please treat me as one of your hired workers.’
20 Ya cajulo, ya mapos para as tataña. Lao chagoja trabia, si tataña linie güe, ya ninamaase, ya finalagüe, ya tinegtog, ya chinicogüe.
So he left and went home to his father. Even though he was still far away in the distance, his father saw him coming, and his heart went out to his son. The father ran to his son, hugging and kissing him.
21 Ya y patgon ilegña as tataña: Tata, umisaoyo contra y langet, yan contra jago; ti dignoyo mas na jumafanaan lajimo.
The son said to him, ‘Father, I've sinned against heaven and against you. I'm no longer worthy to be called your son.’
22 Lao y tata ilegña ni y tentagoña sija: Chule y mas mauleg na magago ya umanaminagago; ya umapolo y aniyu gui calolotña, yan y sapatos gui adengña:
But the father told his servants, ‘Quick—bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet.
23 Ya umacone mague un tatnero ni y mas yomog, ya umapuno ya tafañocho ya tafanmagof;
Bring the calf we've been fattening and kill it. Let's have a feast to celebrate
24 Sa este y lajijo guinin matae, ya lâlâ talo; guinin malingo, ya masoda. Ya jatutujon sija manmagof.
because this is my son who was dead, but who has returned alive; he was lost but now he's found.’ So they started celebrating.
25 Ya y lajiña ni y mas amco estaba gui fangualuan; ya anae guaguato ya esta jijot gui guima, jajungog y dandan yan y manbabaila:
Now the older son was working out in the fields. As he walked towards the house, he heard music and dancing.
26 Ya jaagang uno gui tentago sija, ya jafaesen jafa ayo sija.
So he called one of the servants and asked what was going on.
27 Ya ilegña nu güiya: Y chelumo mato; ya si tatamo japuno y tatnero ni y mas yomog, sa jaresibe gae seguro yan sano.
‘Your brother is back,’ he replied, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he's come home safe and sound.’
28 Ya ninagoslalalo, ya ti malago jumalom: ayonae jumuyong si tataña, ya siniplica na ujalom.
The brother became angry. He refused to go in. So his father came out to plead with him.
29 Ya manope ilegña as tataña: Estagüe, megae na año nae jusesetbe jao, ya taya nae ti jaosgue jafa na tinagomo: lao taya nae unnaeyo un patgon chiba para infanmagof yan y manamigujo sija:
He told his father, ‘Look, all these years I've served you, and never disobeyed you, but you never once gave me even a young goat so I could have a party with my friends.
30 Lao anae mato este na lajimo ni y jalachae todo y güinajamo gui manputa sija; unpunueja ni y mas yomog na tatnero.
Now this son of yours comes back, having spent your money on prostitutes, and you kill the fattened calf for him!’
31 Ya ilegña nu güiya: Lajijo, siempre jumijitaja; ya todo y güinajajo iyomo.
‘Son,’ the father replied, ‘you are always here with me. Everything I have is yours.
32 Lao mauleg para utafanmagof ya utafanalegria: sa este y chelumo guinin matae, ya lâlâ talo; yan guinin malingo, ya esta masoda.
But we should be happy and celebrate! This is your brother who was dead, but who has returned alive; he was lost but now he's found!’”
