Luka 16
1 Yeecu yi nobbwankecebo tak, “nii cuwekako kangeni ki ni toman'nye, Lacin kwa kiyan nye ki nii toman nyewo kang cineut cuwekacokob.
And he spoke a parable to his disciples. There was a certain rich man, who had a steward; and accusations were brought to him of him, that he squandered his property.
2 La nii cuweka wuco yico, “fulan yer minuwa dor mwere? bowki kiyeka tomange mweke, wori mari mwa yila nii tomange mititak.
And his lord called him, and said to him: What is this that I hear of thee? Render to me an account of thy stewardship; for thou canst no longer be my steward.
3 Lamitomange toki neren, ma mangi, nilomi anyam tomanyewo kangmik? Wo, mimanki bikwantonet lami cwa kwenduwe meka cekoti.
And the steward said with himself: What shall I do, since my lord is about to take from me the stewardship? To dig, I am unable; and to become a beggar, I am ashamed.
4 Minnyumwom dike ma matiyeu noci cukumye mor tomanye nindi, nubo ayoye lonici.
I know what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me to their houses.
5 Dila nitomannye cwuningangum nubo teluwece bwanteng centiyeu, yi nii kaba, Nyi nii lomi bwangmwenten tiye?
And he called each one of his lord's debtors; and he said to the first, How much owest thou to my lord?
6 yiki, 'nuwannye kwini kwob' Isryico, Bifumer mwerowo, canakowo yikenyiye, mulangum kwini nung.
And he said to him, One hundred measures of oil. And he said to him: Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write Fifty measures.
7 Yilan yikannye, ciki bwangmwentuniyi? Yiki, cwayi bikate kwini kwob, 'bifumerwo mulangum kwini narub'.
And he said to another: And how much owest thou to my lord? And he said to him, One hundred cors of wheat. And he said to him: Take thy bill, and sit down, and write Eighty cors.
8 Dila niwo caklang nii bwini bilengewo ki yulancero. Bibeyo kaleweu nyimem maka nyinong nubo ko kaleweu la bibei filange yulang. (aiōn g165)
And our Lord praised the unrighteous steward, for having acted sagaciously: for the children of this world are more sagacious than the children of light, in this their generation. (aiōn g165)
9 Miyi komti komma bifarak kannge cuweraka kannge buni bilinke, cawo cin dimri, naci yokom lonici wuro manki diks. (aiōnios g166)
And I also say to you: Make to yourselves friends, with this unrighteous mammon; so that when it is finished, they may receive you to their everlasting tabernacles. (aiōnios g166)
10 Wo madikerti dongdong dor dikero biduwareri, cin nii dongdonge dor dikero dur, wo kebo nii bilinke don dikero bidurure, kebo ni bilinke dor dikero dur.
He that is faithful in the little, is also faithful in the much; and he that is unjust in the little, is also unjust in the much.
11 Tano kommabo dike dongdonge di cuwekako kebo wucakeri, we aciya kumenti kicuweka wabilinkece?
If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will intrust to you the reality?
12 No komma dike dongdonge ki kemer niidir we anekom kemer kumer tiye?
And if ye have not been found faithful in that which is not yours, who will give to you that which is yours?
13 Kange mami wo a wob nii luweti yobe, catin kowini, ci cui win kakka ci ciya winening, ci cuwe kangum wineu. mani ka wab kwaamatiri kom wab cuwekati.
There is no servant, who can serve two lords. For, either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will honor the one and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
14 Kambo faricawabo wuro cui cuwekatiyeu nuwa dikero biombori, cin macinen cuwelangka.
And the Pharisees, when they heard all these things, because they loved money, derided him.
15 Inyici, “Kom ko tiki dor kumero kabum nubem, dila kwaama nyumuom nerkumero. Dikero nubo nedurketiye nyeu diker yeika fiye kwaama wiye.
And Jesus said to them: Ye are such as justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your heart: for that which is exalted among men, is abominable before God.
16 Biwerer bifumer nob tomangebo inwi yakenciko Yahaya nin. Kwama wuro cin bwanten ker liyar kwaaranarotiye, kwarub kutannyi kwamacuo ci bwangten ker liyar kwaamarotiye, kwanrub ci ma bwi dokka dorekti morece.
The law and the prophets were until John: since then, the kingdom of God is proclaimed, and every one presseth it to enter in.
17 Gwamm kangero, atin yilam bwaibo diko kange bitineu nabecum, na diker win nabi weretro na dim.
And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one letter to pass from the law.
18 Niwo nyankan wucenin naukangeri inma buroka, ken niwo nau nawiyewo cinyam kanngeri inma buroka.
Whoever putteth away his wife, and taketh another, committeth adultery; and whoever taketh her that is put away, committeth adultery.
19 Nii cuwakakko kanngenwi, wo dukulen kemero yoryoreu nuwa luma kalecokoti.
And there was a certain rich man, who was clothed in fine linen and scarlet, and passed every day in splendid luxury.
20 Cin yoken nii kini kannge nyiloco, dencero Liazaru, wo bwiceu ka deti.
And there was a certain poor man, whose name was Lazarus; and he was laid at the gate of the rich man, smitten with ulcers.
21 Ceu ci cuiti naci bwam fwercero ki fiti cari yarangum ti fiye caka carik nii cuweka nyo kibi cuwetincer bom biyablam bwiceti.
And he desired to fill his belly with the fragments that fell from the rich man's table: and the dogs also came and licked his ulcers.
22 Laniwo bwiyamri, nobtomangeb kwaamabo tu co yakenciko Ibrayim nin. Ni cuweks buyam, cin fwerumco,
And so it was, that the poor man died; and angels transported him to Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died, and was buried.
23 ci mor Adece ci nuwa dotange ti, la cin kun doro cinto Ibrayim kutan, kan'nge Liazaru cantangcek. (Hadēs g86)
And being tormented in hell, he raised his eyes from afar off, and saw Abraham, and Lazarus in his bosom. (Hadēs g86)
24 Lacin cobicoro ciki, Tee Ibrayim, ci bwinni mito, twomun Liazaru adokti biwurece mwem abelti menti biyenmin, wori indotange minuwati mor kirewe.
And he called with a loud voice, and said: Abraham, my father, have pity on me; and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and moisten my tongue; for, lo, I am tormented in this flame.
25 Dila Ibrayim yico, Bwe, kwabi ki kwamawo mu kalemweu munuwa luma cuweka mwekobi, munyo kulentinimbo ken, La Liazaru nuwati ka dotange. Dila naweu luma cinecotide, mwe munuwa dotangeti.
And Abraham said to him: My son, remember, that thou receivedst thy good things in thy lifetime, and Lazarus his evil things: and now, behold he is here at rest, and thou art tormented.
26 Nobo nyori dila buwako cuwa cuwau inwi, wori birombi coi yabkati kumeneu nadolde, tak kannge na yabuurefo nyinnen.
And with all these, there is a great barrier between us and you; so that they who would pass from here to you, cannot; neither can they pass from there to us
27 Lamicuweks yiki, Lami kennenti Tee Ibrayim, twornco lo Tee ni-
He said to him: I pray thee, therefore, my father, that thou wouldst send him to my father's house;
28 wori minweki keb mib bi beibayilobe nyo nung, amincinen biweret kayilo cibuo fiye dotangewo.
for I have five brothers; that he may go and protest to them; lest they also come to this place of torment.
29 Dila Ibrayim yiki, cin wiki Musa kannge kannge nob toman'ngebi nyori ciya nuwaci,
Abraham said to him: They have Moses and the prophets, let them hear them.
30 Dilla nii cuweka ciyaki, 'O, on, Tee Ibrayim, cano kan'nge mor birombo biyam biya yacinendi, ciyam yiloten.
But he said to him: No, my father Abraham: but if one shall go to them from the dead, they will repent.
31 Dilla Ibrayim yico, cono ci Musa kan'ge nobtoman'gebo ri, cabunano kan'nge fulou duwendi maciya nuwacoti”
Abraham said to him: If they hear not Moses and the prophets, they will not believe, though one should rise from the dead.
