Luke 7
1 Tukun Jesus el fahk kas inge nukewa nu sin mwet uh, el som nu Capernaum.
After he had finished speaking in the hearing of the people, he entered into Capernaum [Village-Comfort, Village-Compassion].
2 Oasr sie leum lun mwet mweun Rome muta we, ac oasr yorol sie mwet kulansap su el arulana lungse yohk, ac mwet sac mas apkuranna in misa.
A certain centurion’s servant, who was dear to him, was sick and at the point of death.
3 Ke leum sac lohng kacl Jesus, el supwala kutu sin un mwet matu lun mwet Jew in som solalma elan tuku ac akkeyala mwet kulansap se lal ah.
When he heard about Yeshua [Salvation], he sent to him elders of the Jews [Praisers], asking him to come and save his servant.
4 Elos tuku nu yurin Jesus ac arulana kwafe sel ac fahk, “Mwet se inge arulana fal kom in kasrel.
When they came to Yeshua [Salvation], they begged him earnestly, saying, “He is worthy for you to do this for him,
5 El arulana lungse mwet in mutunfacl sesr, ac el sifacna musaela iwen lolngok se sesr.”
for he has agapao ·total devotion love· towards our nation, and he built our synagogue for us.”
6 Ouinge Jesus el welulos som. Ke el apkuranyang nu ke lohm sac mwet leum sac supwala kutu sin mwet kawuk lal in som fahk nu sel, “Leum, nimet akelyaye kom. Nga kupansuwol kom in utyak nu in lohm sik uh,
Yeshua [Salvation] went with them. When he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him, “Lord, don’t trouble yourself, for I am not worthy for you to come under my roof.
7 ac nga tia pac fal in sifacna fahsrot nu yurum. Tari, kom fahklana ke kas lom, ac mwet kulansap se luk inge fah kwela.
Therefore I didn’t even think myself worthy to come to you; but say the word, and my servant will be healed.
8 Nga wi pac muta ye ku lun mwet leum, ac oasr pac mwet mweun muta ye kolyuk luk. Nga ku in fahk nu sin sie, ‘Fahla!’ ac el ac fahla. Ac nu sin sie pac, ‘Fahsru!’ na el ac fahsru. Ac nga ac sap nu sin mwet kulansap luk, ‘Orala ma se inge!’ na el oru.”
For I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers. I tell this one, ‘Go!’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
9 Jesus el lut ke el lohng ma inge, na el forla ac fahk nu sin u lulap se ma fahsr tokol, “Nga fahk nu suwos, nga soenna liye lupan lulalfongi ouinge meet, finne in Israel!”
When Yeshua [Salvation] heard these things, he marveled at him, and turned and said to the multitude who followed him, “I tell you, I have not found such great trusting faith, no, not in Israel [God prevails].”
10 Mwet utuk kas uh folokla nu in lohm sin leum sac, ac konauk lah mwet kulansap sac kwela.
Those who were sent, teshuvah ·completely returning· to the house, found that the servant who had been sick was well.
11 Tia paht tukun ma inge, Jesus el som nu in sie siti pangpang Nain, ac mwet tumal lutlut, oayapa sie u lulap, elos welul.
Soon afterwards, he went to a city called Nain. Many of his disciples, along with a great multitude, went with him.
12 In pacl se na ma el sun mutunpot nu in siti uh, pukmas se akola in orek, ac mwet uh oatui ke mutunpot uh. Mwet se ma misa uh el wen sefanna nutin katinmas se, ac sie un mwet na pus elos wi katinmas sac tufoki.
Now when he came near to the gate of the city, behold, one who was dead was carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. Many people of the city were with her.
13 Ke Leum el liyal, el arulana pakomutal, ac el fahk nu sel, “Nimet tung.”
When the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said to her, “Don’t cry.”
14 Na el fahsryang ac kahlye box in mas sac, ac mwet ma us uh elos tui. Jesus el fahk, “Wen se! Nga fahk nu sum, tukakek!”
He came near and touched the coffin, and the bearers stood still. He said, “Young man, I tell you, arise!”
15 Na mwet misa sac tukakek ac el mutawauk in kaskas, ac Jesus el eisalang nu sin nina kial ah.
He who was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he gave him to his mother.
16 Elos nukewa arulana sangeng, ac elos kaksakin God ac fahk, “Sie mwet palu fulat sikyak inmasrlosr! God El tuku in molela mwet lal!”
Fear took hold of all, and they glorified God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us!” and, “God has visited his people!”
17 Pweng kacl Jesus inge fahsrelik nu in facl Judea nufon, ac oayapa ke acn nukewa apunla.
This report went out concerning him in the whole of Judea [Praise], and in all the surrounding region.
18 Ke mwet tumal lutlut lal John elos fahkak ma inge nu sel, el pangonma luo selos
The disciples of John [Yah is gracious] told him about all these things.
19 ac supwaltalla nu yurin Leum in siyuk sel, “Ya kom pa el su ac fah tuku, ku kut ac soano sie pacna?”
John [Yah is gracious], calling to himself two of his disciples, sent them to Yeshua [Salvation], saying, “Are you the one who is coming, or should we look for another?”
20 Ke eltal tuku nu yurin Jesus, eltal fahk, “John Baptais el supwekut in tuh siyuk lah kom pa el su ac fah tuku, ku kut ac soano sie pacna?”
When the men had come to him, they said, “John [Yah is gracious] the Immerser has sent us to you, saying, ‘Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?’”
21 In pacl sacna pus tari mwet ma Jesus el akkeyala liki kain in mas puspis lalos, sisla ngun fohkfok in elos, ac sang liyaten nu sin mwet kun.
In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and to many who were blind he gave sight.
22 El topuk mwet utuk kas lal John ac fahk, “Folokla nu yorol John ac fahk nu sel ma komtal liye ac lohng: mwet kun elos ku in liye, mwet ul elos ku in fahsr, ac mwet musen lepa elos nasnasla, mwet sulohngkas elos ku in lohng, mwet misa elos akmoulyeyukyak, ac Pweng Wo uh lutiyuk nu sin mwet sukasrup.
Yeshua [Salvation] answered them, “Go and tell John [Yah is gracious] the things which you have seen and heard: that the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the people afflicted with tzara'at ·leprosy· are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.
23 Fuka lupan insewowo lalos su tia alolo keik!”
Blessed is he who finds no occasion for stumbling in me.”
24 Tukun mwet lal John folokla, Jesus el mutawauk in sramsram kacl John nu sin u lulap sac, ac fahk, “Ke kowos tuh som nu yorol John nu yen mwesis ah, mea kowos tuh finsrak mu kowos ac tuh liye? Ya soko ah ma kusrusrsrusr ke eng uh?
When John [Yah is gracious]’s messengers had departed, he began to tell the multitudes about John [Yah is gracious], “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
25 Mea kowos som in liye ah? Ya sie mwet su yunla ke nuknuk kato? Mwet ma nukum nuknuk kato, ac pukanten pac mwe kasrup lalos, elos muta inkul fulat sin tokosra uh.
But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft clothing? Behold, those who are gorgeously dressed, and live delicately, are in kings’ courts.
26 Fahkma nu sik, mea kowos som in liye uh — ya sie mwet palu? Aok pwaye, tusruktu nga fahk nu suwos, el su kowos liye ah fulat liki na sie mwet palu.
But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.
27 Mweyen John pa mwet se Ma Simusla uh fahk kacl mu: ‘Nga ac supwaot mwet in sulkakin se luk meet liki kom, in tuh sakunla inkanek lom uh.’”
This is he of whom it is written, ‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’
28 Ac Jesus el sifilpa fahk, “John el fulat liki kutena mwet su moul oemeet me. Tusruktu el su pusisel oemeet in Tokosrai lun God uh el fulat lukel John.”
“For I tell you, among those who are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John [Yah is gracious] the Immerser, yet he who is least in God’s Kingdom is greater than he.”
29 Mwet nukewa, oayapa mwet eisani tax uh, elos lohng ma inge ac akilen suwoswos lun God ke sripen elos baptaisla sel John.
When all the people and the tax collectors heard this, they declared God to be just, having been baptized with John [Yah is gracious]’s baptism.
30 Tusruktu mwet Pharisee ac mwet luti Ma Sap elos pilesru oakwuk lun God nu selos, ac tiana lungse baptaisla sel John.
But the Pharisees [Separated] and the lawyers rejected the counsel of God, not being baptized by him themselves.
31 Ac Jesus el sifilpa fahk, “Inge, mea nga ac ku in luma mwet in pacl inge uh nu kac uh? Elos oana mea?
“To what then will I liken the people of this generation? What are they like?
32 Elos oana tulik srisrik su muta ke nien kuka. Sie un tulik uh wowo nu sin sie pac u ac fahk, ‘Kut nikaruru nu sumtal, a komtal tiana srosro nu kac! Kut yuk on in asor, a komtal tiana tung!’
They are like children who sit in the marketplace, and call to one another, saying, ‘We piped to you, and you didn’t dance. We mourned, and you didn’t weep.’
33 Ke John Baptais el tuh tuku, el lalo ac tia nim wain, ac kowos fahk, ‘Oasr ngun fohkfok in el!’
For John [Yah is gracious] the Immerser came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon.’
34 Wen nutin Mwet el tuku, ac el mongo ac nim, ac kowos fahk, ‘Liye mwet se inge! El kainmongo ac lungse na nim mwe sruhi, ac el kawuk nu sin mwet eisani tax ac mwet koluk pac saya!’
The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Behold, a gluttonous man, and a drunkard; a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’
35 Tusruktu lalmwetmet lun God uh akkalemyeyuk in moul lun mwet nukewa su moulkin.”
Wisdom is justified by all her children.”
36 Sie mwet Pharisee solal Jesus elan welul mongo in eku, na Jesus el som nu lohm sel ac pituki in mongo.
One of the Pharisees [Separated] invited him to eat with him. He entered into the Pharisee [Separated]’s house, and sat at the table.
37 Oasr sie mutan in siti sac su moul lal uh tiana wo. El lohngak lah Jesus el mongo oasr in lohm sin mwet Pharisee sac, na el use sufa soko ma orekla ke eot alabaster ac nwanala ke ono keng.
Behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that he was reclining in the Pharisee [Separated]’s house, she brought an alabaster jar of ointment.
38 Na el tu sisken nial Jesus ac tung, ac el mutawauk in aksroksrokye nial ke sroninmutal. Na el eela nien Jesus ke aunsifal, ngokya nial, ac mosrwela ke ono keng sac.
Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
39 Ke mwet Pharisee sac liye, el nunku sel sifacna, “Fin mwet palu na pwaye se pa inge, el ac etu lah su mutan se kahlul inge, oayapa ouiyen moul lal lah el sie mutan koluk.”
Now when the Pharisee [Separated] who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner.”
40 Jesus el kasla ac fahk nu sel, “Simon, oasr ma nga lungse fahk nu sum.” Na Simon el fahk, “Kwal, Mwet Luti, fahkma.”
Yeshua [Salvation] answered him, “Simeon [Hearing], I have something to tell you.” He said, “Teacher, say on.”
41 Na el Jesus el fahk, “Oasr mwet luo soemoul nu sin sie mwet liyaung mani. Sie seltal soemoul ke ipin silver lumfoko, ac ma se ngia ipin silver lumngaul.
“A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii (500 days wages), and the other fifty denarii (50 days wages).
42 Kewana mwet luo ah tia ku in akfalye ma el soemoul kac, na mwet liyaung mani sac el tari sisla soemoul laltal ah kewa. Ke ouinge, su kac seltal ac lungse mukul sac yohk uh?”
When they couldn’t pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will show agapao ·total devotion love· to him most?”
43 Na Simon el fahk, “Nga nunku mu ac el su yohk soemoul la.” Na Jesus el fahk, “Fal fahk lom an.”
Simeon [Hearing] answered, “He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most.” He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”
44 Na el ngetang nu sin mutan sac ac fahk nu sel Simon, “Kom liye mutan se inge? Nga utyak nu in lohm sum ac wangin kof kom ase in ohlla niuk, a mutan se inge el ohlla niuk ke sroninmutal ac akpaoyela ke aunsifal.
Turning to the woman, he said to Simeon [Hearing], “Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, and you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head.
45 Kom tia pac paingyu ke angokmwet, a mutan se inge el tia tui in ngok niuk oe ke nga utyak ah me.
You gave me no kiss, but she, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.
46 Kom tia mosrwela sifuk ke oil in olive, a mutan se inge el mosrwela nufon niuk ke ono keng.
You didn’t anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.
47 Pwayena nga fahk nu sum, lungse yohk su el akkalemye inge akpwayei lah ma koluk puspis lal nunak munas nu sel tari. Tusruktu el su eis nunak munas ke ma srik, lungse lal uh ac srik pac.”
Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she showed agapao ·totally devoted love· much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same shows little agapao ·totally devoted love·.”
48 Na Jesus el fahk nu sin mutan sac, “Ma koluk lom nunak munas nu sum.”
He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
49 Mwet saya ma wi muta ke tepu sac sifacna nunku insialos, “Su mwet se inge, ku elan nunak munas ke ma koluk uh?”
Those who sat at the table with him began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”
50 A Jesus el fahk nu sin mutan sac, “Lulalfongi lom molikomla. Som in misla.”
He said to the woman, “Your trusting faith has saved you. Go in peace.”
