Luke 14
1 When he went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees on a Sabbath to eat bread, they were watching him.
Guyyaa Sanbataa tokko yommuu Yesuus buddeena nyaachuuf mana Fariisicha beekamaa tokkoo dhaqetti, namoonni xiyyeeffatanii isa ilaalaa turan.
2 Behold, a certain man who had dropsy was in front of him.
Namichi dhagni isaa dhiitaʼe tokkos fuula isaa dura ture.
3 Jesus, answering, spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”
Yesuusis, “Guyyaa Sanbataatiin nama fayyisuun ni eeyyamama moo hin eeyyamamu?” jedhee Fariisotaa fi hayyoota seeraa gaafate.
4 But they were silent. He took him, and healed him, and let him go.
Isaan garuu ni calʼisan; innis namicha harkaan qaqqabee fayyisee gad isa lakkise.
5 He answered them, “Which of you, if your son or an ox fell into a well, wouldn’t immediately pull him out on a Sabbath day?”
Innis, “Isin keessaa namni tokko yoo ilma yookaan qotiyyoo guyyaa Sanbataatiin boolla keessa buʼe qabaate, inni yeruma sana harkisee boolla keessaa hin baasuu?” jedhee isaan gaafate.
6 They couldn’t answer him regarding these things.
Isaan garuu deebii kennuu hin dandeenye.
7 He spoke a parable to those who were invited, when he noticed how they chose the best seats, and said to them,
Innis yommuu akka keessumoonni sun iddoo ulfinaa filatan hubatetti akkana jedhee fakkeenya kana isaanitti hime;
8 “When you are invited by anyone to a wedding feast, don’t sit in the best seat, since perhaps someone more honorable than you might be invited by him,
“Yoo namni tokko cidha fuudhaa fi heerumaatti si waame, iddoo ulfinaa hin taaʼin; tarii namni si caalaa ulfina qabu tokko waamameera taʼaatii.
9 and he who invited both of you would come and tell you, ‘Make room for this person.’ Then you would begin, with shame, to take the lowest place.
Namichi isin lamaanuu waame sun dhufee, ‘Namicha kanaaf kaʼi’ siin jedha; atis qaanoftee dhaqxee lafa iddoo hundumaa gad taʼe teessa.
10 But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes, he may tell you, ‘Friend, move up higher.’ Then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at the table with you.
Ati garuu yommuu waamamtu akka namichi si waame sun yeroo dhufutti, ‘Yaa michuu koo iddoo ol aanutti hiiqi’ siin jedhuuf dhaqii lafa iddoo hundumaa gad taʼe taaʼi; yoos fuula warra si wajjin maaddiitti dhiʼaatan hundumaa duratti ulfina argattaatii.
11 For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.”
Namni ol of qabu hundinuu gad qabamaatii; namni gad of qabu hundinuu immoo ol qabama.”
12 He also said to the one who had invited him, “When you make a dinner or a supper, don’t call your friends, nor your brothers, nor your kinsmen, nor rich neighbors, or perhaps they might also return the favor, and pay you back.
Yesuusis namicha isa waame sanaan akkana jedhe; “Ati yommuu laaqana yookaan irbaata qopheessitu michoota kee yookaan obboloota kee, yookaan firoota kee, yookaan olloota kee warra sooreyyii hin waamin; yoo akkas goote isaanis deebisanii si waamu; gatiin kees siif deebifama.
13 But when you make a feast, ask the poor, the maimed, the lame, or the blind;
Garuu yommuu cidha qopheessitu hiyyeeyyii, naafa, okkolaa fi jaamaa waami.
14 and you will be blessed, because they don’t have the resources to repay you. For you will be repaid in the resurrection of the righteous.”
Sababii isaan waan siif deebisan hin qabneef ati ni eebbifamta; gatiin kee guyyaa duʼaa kaʼuu qajeeltotaatti siif deebifamaatii.”
15 When one of those who sat at the table with him heard these things, he said to him, “Blessed is he who will feast in God’s Kingdom!”
Warra isa wajjin maaddiitti dhiʼaatan keessaa namichi tokko yommuu waan kana dhagaʼetti Yesuusiin, “Namni mootummaa Waaqaa keessatti maaddiitti dhiʼaatu eebbifamaa dha” jedhe.
16 But he said to him, “A certain man made a great supper, and he invited many people.
Yesuus immoo akkana jedhee deebise; “Namichi tokko cidha guddaa qopheessee keessumoota hedduu affeere.
17 He sent out his servant at supper time to tell those who were invited, ‘Come, for everything is ready now.’
Namichi sunis saʼaatii nyaataatti akka inni, ‘Kunoo, wanni hundinuu qopheeffameeraatii kottaa’ jedhee warra affeeraman sanatti himuuf garbicha isaa erge.
18 They all as one began to make excuses. “The first said to him, ‘I have bought a field, and I must go and see it. Please have me excused.’
“Garuu isaan hundi bifuma tokkoon sababa dhiʼeeffachuu jalqaban; inni jalqabaa, ‘Ani lafa qotiisaa bitadheera; kanaafuu dhaqeen ilaaluu qabaatii maaloo na hin komatin’ jedheen.
19 “Another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I must go try them out. Please have me excused.’
“Inni kaan, ‘Ani qotiyyoo cimdii shan bitadheera; isaan leenjisuuf deemuuttin jiraatii, maaloo na hin komatin’ jedheen.
20 “Another said, ‘I have married a wife, and therefore I can’t come.’
“Amma illee inni kaan, ‘Ani dhiʼoon niitii fuudhe; kanaafuu dhufuu hin dandaʼu’ jedheen.
21 “That servant came, and told his lord these things. Then the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant, ‘Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in the poor, maimed, blind, and lame.’
“Garbichi sunis deebiʼee waan kana gooftaa isaatti hime. Abbaan mana sanaas aaree, ‘Dafii karaa guddaa fi daandii qalʼaa magaalaatti achi baʼiitii hiyyeeyyii, naafa, jaamaa fi okkolaa fidii ol seensis’ jedhee garbicha isaa ajaje.
22 “The servant said, ‘Lord, it is done as you commanded, and there is still room.’
“Garbichi sunis, ‘Yaa gooftaa, wanni ati ajajje hundi raawwateera; garuu amma illee iddoon jira’ jedheen.
23 “The lord said to the servant, ‘Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.
“Gooftichis garbicha isaatiin akkana jedhe; ‘Akka manni koo guutamuuf karaa guddaa fi daandii baadiyyaatti achi baʼiitii akka isaan ol galan dirqisiisi.
24 For I tell you that none of those men who were invited will taste of my supper. For many are called, but few are chosen.’”
Ani isinittin hima; namoota waamaman sana keessaa namni tokko iyyuu maaddii koo irraa afaaniin hin qabu.’”
25 Now great multitudes were going with him. He turned and said to them,
Namoonni baayʼeen Yesuus wajjin deemaa turan; innis garagalee akkana isaaniin jedhe;
26 “If anyone comes to me, and doesn’t disregard his own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he can’t be my disciple.
“Namni gara koo dhufu kam iyyuu yoo abbaa isaatii fi haadha isaa, niitii isaatii fi ijoollee isaa, obboloota isaatii fi obboleettota isaa akkasumas lubbuu isaa illee hin jibbine inni barataa koo taʼuu hin dandaʼu.
27 Whoever doesn’t bear his own cross and come after me, can’t be my disciple.
Namni fannoo ofii isaa baadhatee na duukaa hin buune kam iyyuus barataa koo taʼuu hin dandaʼu.
28 For which of you, desiring to build a tower, doesn’t first sit down and count the cost, to see if he has enough to complete it?
“Mee isin keessaa namni tokko gamoo ijaarrachuu barbaada haa jennuu; namichi sun gamoo sana ijaaree fixuuf horii gaʼaa qabaachuu fi qabaachuu baachuu isaa beekuuf duraan dursee taaʼee gatii isaa hin herregatuu?
29 Or perhaps, when he has laid a foundation and isn’t able to finish, everyone who sees begins to mock him,
Yoo kanaa achii yommuu inni hundee kaaʼee fixuu dadhabutti, namoonni argan hundi itti qoosu.
30 saying, ‘This man began to build and wasn’t able to finish.’
Isaanis, ‘Namichi kun ijaaruu jalqabee fixuu dadhabe’ jedhu.
31 Or what king, as he goes to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand?
“Yookaan mee mootiin tokko mootii biraa loluu dhaqa haa jennuu; inni mootii loltoota kuma digdamaan isatti dhufu tokko loltoota kuma kudhaniin of irraa loluu dandaʼuu fi dandaʼuu baachuu isaa duraan dursee taaʼee itti hin yaaduu?
32 Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends an envoy and asks for conditions of peace.
Yoo hin dandeenye immoo utuu mootichi kaan isa irraa fagoo jiruu bakka buʼoota itti ergee akka nagaan buʼu kadhata.
33 So therefore, whoever of you who doesn’t renounce all that he has, he can’t be my disciple.
Akkanumas isin keessaa namni waan qabu hunda hin dhiifne kam iyyuu barataa koo taʼuu hin dandaʼu.
34 “Salt is good, but if the salt becomes flat and tasteless, with what do you season it?
“Soogiddi gaarii dha; garuu yoo inni miʼaa isaa dhabe, miʼaan isaa akkamiin deebifamuu dandaʼa?
35 It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile. It is thrown out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
Inni biyyoof yookaan tuulaa kosiitiif faayidaa hin qabu; inni gad gatama. “Namni gurra dhagaʼu qabu kam iyyuu haa dhagaʼu.”
