Luka 14

1 Uso liyiri namong Asabbath, kube ado nanya kilari nmon udia Nafarsayawa alii imonlii, iwadi ncara me chochot.

And it happened that, when Jesus entered the house of a certain leader of the Pharisees on the Sabbath to eat bread, they were observing him.

2 Kikane nbun me, umon wa duku awa dinin nkonu nmyi adin nniyu mun kang.

And behold, a certain man before him was afflicted with edema.

3 Yesu tirino anan nyiru nduka nanya Nayahudawa, nin na Farsayawa, “Iyinna ishin nin nit liyiri Nasabbath, sa babu?”

And responding, Jesus spoke to the experts in the law and to the Pharisees, saying, “Is it lawful to cure on the Sabbath?”

4 Inung so tiik. Ame Yesu minghe a fiyaghe, a woro caang.

But they kept silent. Yet truly, taking hold of him, he healed him and sent him away.

5 Ame woro nani, “Ghari nanya mine ule na adinin gono sa finna na adio nanya nrijiya nwui Nasabbath na aba du dedei adi natun ba?”

And responding to them, he said, “Which of you will have a donkey or an ox fall into a pit, and will not promptly pull him out, on the day of the Sabbath?”

6 Na inung wa yinin ukauwu ghe nite imone ba.

And they were unable to respond to him about these things.

7 Kubi na Yesu wa yene alenge na ina yicila nani asa ifere niti lisosin ngongong, abelle tinan tigoldo aworo nani,

Then he also told a parable, to those who were invited, noticing how they chose the first seats at the table, saying to them:

8 “Kubi na iyicilati uduu kiti nbuki nilugma, nauwa so kiti nse ngongon ba, bara sa umon duku na ina yicila ghe na akatinti nin ngongong.

“When you are invited to a wedding, do not sit down in the first place, lest perhaps someone more honored than yourself may have been invited by him.

9 Asa unite nin fe vat ndah, iba woru fi, 'Naci unit ule kitife,' nin ncing uba kpulu idi so kiti kibene.

And then he who called both you and him, approaching, may say to you, ‘Give this place to him.’ And then you would begin, with shame, to take the last place.

10 Asa iyicilafi cang idi so kiti kibene, kube na ulle na ana cila yicilafi ndaa, aba bellin fe, 'Udon nigh dah kiti kidya.' Uba se ngongon kiti nale vat na isosin nan fi.

But when you are invited, go, sit down in the lowest place, so that, when he who invited you arrives, he may say to you, ‘Friend, go up higher.’ Then you will have glory in the sight of those who sit at table together with you.

11 Bara vat nlenge na atoltuno liti me iba ghantingh, ame ulenge na aghantina liti me iba toltunghe.”

For everyone who exalts himself shall be humbled, and whoever humbles himself shall be exalted.”

12 Yesu tutun woro nnit une na ana yicila ghe, “Kubi na ushiniya ubuki sa imonli, na uwa yicila adondon fe, likura fe, sa anan nimon nacara kupo fe, inung ba kuru iyicila fi, ikpilin in nifi na ubase uduk ba.

Then he also said to the one who had invited him: “When you prepare a lunch or dinner, do not choose to call your friends, or your brothers, or your relatives, or your wealthy neighbors, lest perhaps they might then invite you in return and repayment would made to you.

13 Asa ubasu ubuki yicila akimon, agurgu aturri nin naduu ana salin nyenju kiti,

But when you prepare a feast, call the poor, the disabled, the lame, and the blind.

14 uba se nmari, bara na iwasa ikpilla inafi ba, bara uba se uduk liyirin nfitu nanit alau.”

And you will be blessed because they do not have a way to repay you. So then, your recompense will be in the resurrection of the just.”

15 Umong na asosin kutebule nin Yesu, lanza ile imone, aworo ghe, “Unan nmariari ulenge na aba su kileo nanya kipin tigoo Kutelle!”

When someone sitting at table with him had heard these things, he said to him, “Blessed is he who will eat bread in the kingdom of God.”

16 Ame Yesu woro ghe, “Umon unit wa dinin nbuki udia, ayicila anit gbardang.

So he said to him: “A certain man prepared a great feast, and he invited many.

17 Na imonli nyini, ayicila anan katuwa kilari me, ato nani ido idi yicila alenge na ana bellin nani, 'Idak, bara ko yang inyini.'

And he sent his servant, at the hour of the feast, to tell the invited to come; for now everything was ready.

18 Inug vat nafo itere tinu cizina udasu nin kucikusu, unan nburne woro ghe, 'Meng na seru kunen, nba du ndi yene. Na nbase udake ba.'

And at once they all began to make excuses. The first said to him: ‘I bought a farm, and I need to go out and see it. I ask you to excuse me.’

19 Umong tutun woro, 'Meng na seru inna ibaba ukashi utaun, ndin cinu udu idi gwada inin. Na meng base udake ba.'

And another said: ‘I bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to examine them. I ask you to excuse me.’

20 Umon unit woro ghe, 'Meng nasu ilugma ipese, bara nani na nbase udake ba.'

And another said, ‘I have taken a wife, and therefore I am not able to go.’

21 Unan katuwa kilare kpilla ada belle Cikilare ile imone. Ale Cikilare kilare nana nayi, abelle unan katuwa my, 'Caan nanya kagbire dedei nan tibau udanin, nakimon, agurgu, a aduu nan naturi.'

And returning, the servant reported these things to his lord. Then the father of the family, becoming angry, said to his servant: ‘Go out quickly into the streets and neighborhoods of the city. And lead here the poor, and the disabled, and the blind, and the lame.’

22 Unan katuwa woro, 'Cikilari, ile imon na ubelle nsu inin, har nene kiti duku, sa unit.

And the servant said: ‘It has been done, just as you ordered, lord, and there is still room.’

23 Cikilare belle unan katuwa me, 'Nuzu udo tibau tididia ukpeshilu nani idak, bara kilari nighe nan kullo.

And the lord said to the servant: ‘Go out to the highways and hedges, and compel them to enter, so that my house may be filled.

24 Bara meng nbellin munu, na umon nanya nalele na iwa burun uyicilu nani dudu imonli nighe ba.'”

For I tell you, that none of those men who were invited will taste of my feast.’”

25 Nene ligozin na nit wa din cin nin ghe, a girtino a woro nani,

Now great crowds traveled with him. And turning around, he said to them:

26 wase umong ndaa kiti ning na anari ucef mge, unna nye, uwani nye, nwana nye, ni lime nan nishono - ee, umunu ulai me - na a batina usu gono katwa nin ba.

“If anyone comes to me, and does not hate his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brothers, and sisters, and yes, even his own life, he is not able to be my disciple.

27 vat inle na a yira kuca nkul nye a dufini ba na awa sa asu gono katwa nin ba.

And whoever does not bear his cross and come after me, is not able to be my disciple.

28 Bara ghari nanya mine, ule na a dinin su a kee kilari na aba so a batiza imon ile na aba mulun kewe ayinin sa a nin nimong ile na ama ke kelare mun udu umale anin cizin ba?

For who among you, wanting to build a tower, would not first sit down and determine the costs that are required, to see if he has the means to complete it?

29 Ana nani ba, a wa cizin lituine na a mala ba, vat nle na a yene a ba sisughe,

Otherwise, after he will have laid the foundation and not been able to finish it, everyone who sees it may begin to mock him,

30 a beling ule unite na cizin ukee kilari na amala ba.

saying: ‘This man began to build what he was not able to finish.’

31 Sa uyapin agomari, na ama du likum nin mung ugo, na aba so a seru ashawara sa ama yinnu likume nin na nit amoi likure wase uleli ugowe nda nin na nit amoi akutaba?

Or, what king, advancing to engage in war against another king, would not first sit down and consider whether he may be able, with ten thousand, to meet one who comes against him with twenty thousand?

32 Andi na nani ba, aleli anang likume nwadi piit, a taa umong adi foo acara bara iso mang.

If not, then while the other is still far away, sending a delegation, he would ask him for terms of peace.

33 Bara nanere, vat nanya mine andi na usuna ile imong na udumung ba na uwa sa usoo unam masun iyinu ning ba.

Therefore, every one of you who does not renounce all that he possesses is not able to be my disciple.

34 Nto caun, bara na misali mamas, mi ba kuru me lawa ntwe tutungha?

Salt is good. But if the salt has lost its flavor, with what will it be seasoned?

35 Na mima yitu nin katwa tutung ba, I ma gutunu mining. Ule na adi nin na tuf na a lanza, na a lanza.

It is useful neither in soil, nor in manure, so instead, it shall be thrown away. Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.”
