< 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.
Lao esa, nandaa no fai hule-oꞌeꞌ, atahori partei agama Farisi ra malanggan esa noꞌe Yesus fo nema naa sia umen. Ana endoꞌ naa-ninu, ma hambu atahori maku-maꞌu E fo rae rita Ana nae tao saa nandaa no fai hule-oꞌeꞌ.
2 Behold, a certain man who had dropsy was in front of him.
Leleꞌ naa, hambu atahori esa mamahedꞌi ao maꞌasofeꞌ endoꞌ sia naa boe.
3 Jesus, answering, spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”
Boe ma, Yesus natane mahine hukun Yahudi ma atahori Farisi mana endo raa-rinu sia naa nae, “Tungga baꞌi Musa hohoro-lalanen, bisa tao nahaiꞌ atahori hedꞌis, nandaa no fai hule-oꞌeꞌ, do hokoꞌ?”
4 But they were silent. He took him, and healed him, and let him go.
Te nda hambu esa nahara sa boe. Boe ma Yesus kois atahori mamahedꞌiꞌ a, de hai neuꞌ ena. Basa ma Yesus denu e baliꞌ.
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?”
Basa naa ma, Yesus natane se fai nae, “Mete ma hambu anadikiꞌ sa tudꞌa oe rala neu, nandaa no fai hule-oꞌeꞌ, hei mii nore baliꞌ e dꞌean, do hokoꞌ? Mete ma sapi a tudꞌa rala neu, na hei hela e, do, lea hendi e dꞌean? Neꞌo hei lea hendi e dꞌean. De naa sosoan nae, hei o tao ues ena boe, to!”
6 They couldn’t answer him regarding these things.
Rena Yesus olaꞌ taꞌo naa, te nda hambu atahori esa bisa nataa E sa boe.
7 He spoke a parable to those who were invited, when he noticed how they chose the best seats, and said to them,
Leleꞌ naa, Yesus memeteꞌ atahori mana rema raa sia ume fefetas a. Hambu atahori hetar pili mamanaꞌ sia mataꞌ, fo reu endoꞌ sia naa. Nita taꞌo naa, boe ma Ana olaꞌ nae,
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,
Besa-bꞌesa, o! Mete ma atahori rarolo nggi misiꞌ fefeta kakabꞌiꞌ, na, afiꞌ mii endo sia ataori moko-monaen ra mamanan. Huu afiꞌ losa tenu fefetas narolo fuiꞌ manaseliꞌ lenaꞌ nggo.
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.
Mete ma taꞌo naa, tenu fefetas neꞌo nema olaꞌ no nggo nae, ‘Afiꞌ mumunasa, e! Amaꞌ tulun lali misiꞌ deaꞌ naa dei, huu au sadꞌia hela kadꞌera ia fee neu atahori moko monaen ra.’ Boe ma ho fela hela kadꞌera naa no mamaet, de muu endoꞌ sia seku dꞌeaꞌ.
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.
Dadꞌi mete ma hambu nerolot, na, muu endoꞌ sia kadꞌera mana seku sia deaꞌ. Dei fo mete ma tenu fefetas nita nggo, na neti noꞌe nae, ‘Eh, Amaꞌ! Laꞌi fo endoꞌ sia mataꞌ ia.’ No taꞌo naa hei hambu hadꞌa-hormat sia atahori fuiꞌ ra matan nara.
11 For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.”
Huu atahori mana soꞌu-soꞌuꞌ aon, dei fo Lamatuaꞌ naꞌatutudꞌaꞌ e. Te atahori mana tao aon onaꞌ anadꞌiki, dei fo Lamatuaꞌ soꞌu nanaru e.”
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.
Basa naa ma, Yesus olaꞌ no tenu umeꞌ a nae, “Faiꞌ ruma, mete ma amaꞌ tao fefetas, na, afiꞌ muroloꞌ a bobꞌonggim no nonoom atahori mamasuꞌiꞌ ra! Te neꞌo ara bisa rarolo baliꞌ nggo fai!
13 But when you make a feast, ask the poor, the maimed, the lame, or the blind;
De mete ma amaꞌ feta-dꞌote, na, murolo atahori hata-taaꞌ, ei doꞌoꞌ, keko-lukuꞌ, ma atahori pokeꞌ ra.
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.”
Huu neꞌo ara nda bisa bala-bꞌae rala nggo sa. Te mete ma amaꞌ murolo se, Lamatualain mana bala-bꞌae. Dei fo mete ma nafefela baliꞌ atahori mamahereꞌ mia mamates ena, Ana nda liliiꞌ amaꞌ malolem sa.”
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!”
Rena taꞌo naa ma, hambu atahori sa mana endoꞌ no Yesus olaꞌ nae, “Atahori mana onton seli naeni atahori mana raa raꞌabꞌue sia Lamatualain ume manen, o!”
16 But he said to him, “A certain man made a great supper, and he invited many people.
Yesus nataa e nae, “Au dui taꞌo ia: Hambu atahori sa tao fefeta ineꞌ. Boe ma ana narolo atahori hetar.
17 He sent out his servant at supper time to tell those who were invited, ‘Come, for everything is ready now.’
Leleꞌ ara sadꞌia rala fefetas ena ma, ana denu atahori dedꞌenun, neu noꞌe atahori mana hambu nerolotꞌ ra nae, ‘Laꞌi, te fefetas sangga mulai ena.’
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.’
Te basa se sangga dalaꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ naa fo ara nda reu sa. Esa bꞌale nae, ‘Waa! Au feꞌe hasa ala osi sa, de au musi uu mete sobꞌa e dei. Afiꞌ mumunasa o! Huu au nda bisa uu sa.’
19 “Another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I must go try them out. Please have me excused.’
Hambu esa fai nae, ‘Au feꞌe hasa ala sapi hohombu moleꞌ pasan lima. Au ae uu sobꞌa sudꞌi se, de afiꞌ mumunasa, o!
20 “Another said, ‘I have married a wife, and therefore I can’t come.’
Esa fai nae, ‘Au feꞌe sao ena, de nda bisa uu sa.’
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.’
Basa ma, atahori dedꞌenuꞌ a baliꞌ de nafadꞌe tenu fefetas a. Rena nala ma, tenu fefetas namanasa seli. Boe ma ana parenda atahori dedꞌenuꞌ a nae, ‘Mete ma taꞌo naa, lao muu leo lai-lai! Muu sia basa okofoꞌ ma dꞌala kabiaꞌ ra sia kota, fo murolo mendi basa atahori hata-taaꞌ ra, ei doꞌo, pokeꞌ, ma keko-lukuꞌ ra.’
22 “The servant said, ‘Lord, it is done as you commanded, and there is still room.’
Rena taꞌo naa ma, atahori dꞌedeꞌnuꞌ a neu narolo atahori ra. De ana baliꞌ ma nafadꞌe nae, ‘Amaꞌ! Basa se rema ena, te mamana rouꞌ feꞌe hetar.’
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.
Boe ma tenu fefetas nae, ‘Mete ma taꞌo naa, muu seluꞌ fai sia kambo-kamboꞌ sia kota dꞌeaꞌ, losa osi-lutu ra. Kokoe sudꞌiꞌ a se, fo mo se rema, sadꞌi tao sofe mamana fefetas ia.
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.’”
Rena, e! Atahori nda mana simbo nerolo ngga naa, ara nda ramedꞌa rita fefetas ia nanaat nara maladꞌan mbei sa boe!’”
25 Now great multitudes were going with him. He turned and said to them,
Basa naa ma, Yesus se lao rakandoo risiꞌ Yerusalem. Atahori hetar tungga E. De Ana mbali se, ma Ana olaꞌ nae,
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.
“‘Atahori mana tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ nau tungga Au, ana musi sue Au lenaꞌ basa e: lenaꞌ ina-ama nara, lenaꞌ sao-ana nara, lenaꞌ odꞌi-aꞌa nara, lelenan fai eni aon. Mete ma hokoꞌ, atahori naa, nda nandaa dadꞌi Au ana mana tungga ngga sa.
27 Whoever doesn’t bear his own cross and come after me, can’t be my disciple.
Te atahori mana nda nau lemba doidꞌosoꞌ sa, huu ana tungga Au, ana nda nandaa dadꞌi Au atahori ngga sa. Atahori mana nae dadꞌi Au atahori ngga, onaꞌ mae atahori rae tao risa e o, ana lemba nakandoo doidꞌoson.
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?
Dadꞌi mete ma mae tungga Au, na, duꞌa malolole dei. Onaꞌ atahori rae rafefela Ume dek. Ana musi reken lutuꞌ-leloꞌ naꞌahuluꞌ dei, ume nala dꞌoiꞌ baꞌu saa. Afiꞌ losa dꞌoiꞌ nda dai sa.
29 Or perhaps, when he has laid a foundation and isn’t able to finish, everyone who sees begins to mock him,
Huu mete ma nda ito-reken lutuꞌ-leloꞌ sa na, afiꞌ losa feꞌe taoꞌ a ume a netehun, te dꞌoiꞌ basa ena. Ma atahori ra mali raꞌamamaeꞌ e,
30 saying, ‘This man began to build and wasn’t able to finish.’
rae, ‘Hei mita atahori naa dei! Ana feꞌe taoꞌ a ume netehun, nda feꞌe saa sa boe, te dꞌoin basa ena.’
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?
Conto Laen fai, naeni soꞌal netatiꞌ. Mane mana nae natati musi endoꞌ no nonoon nara fo ola-olaꞌ raꞌahuluꞌ deiꞌ Mete ma naꞌena a soldꞌadꞌu atahori rifon sanahuluꞌ a, na musi timba-tai eni bisa nasenggiꞌ musu, atahori rifon ruanulu, do hokoꞌ?
32 Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends an envoy and asks for conditions of peace.
Mete ma timba-tai basa, ma duꞌa nae neꞌo eni nda nasenggiꞌ sa, na, malole lenaꞌ, leleꞌ musu a feꞌe sia dodꞌooꞌ, te ana haitua memaꞌ dedꞌenuꞌ fo olaꞌ dꞌame.
33 So therefore, whoever of you who doesn’t renounce all that he has, he can’t be my disciple.
Onaꞌ naa boe, atahori mana nae tungga Au. Eni musi duꞌa neu-nema malolole, nae eni nahehere lao hela basaꞌ e, do hokoꞌ? Mete ma hokoꞌ, atahori naa nda nandaa dadꞌi ana dedꞌenu Ngga sa.”
34 “Salt is good, but if the salt becomes flat and tasteless, with what do you season it?
Yesus tute seluꞌ dedꞌea-oꞌolan no conto laen fai nae, “Masiꞌ naa, maloleꞌ. Hita pake fo tao maladꞌa nanaat. Te mete ma masiꞌ a nda masi sa ena, na nggunan sa fai? Hita nda bisa pake e fo tao maladꞌa nanaat sa ena. Tae tao dadꞌi pupuk o, nda bisa sa ena. Hita nggari hendi e neuꞌ ena. Dadꞌi hei o musi dadꞌi onaꞌ masiꞌ a, fo misodꞌa sue-lai basa atahori. Seka ma ndikiꞌ, na, rena malolole, o!”
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.”
