Luge 12
1 Dunu bagohamedafa gilisili guba: le, dunu eno dunu enoma osa: le heda: mu: agoai galu, Yesu da Ea ado ba: su dunu ilima hidadea sia: i, “Fa: lisi dunu ilia ogogosu hou da yisidi agoane. Liligi huluane da ilia hou amoga wadela: sa: besa: le, dawa: ma: i.
Meanwhile the people had gathered in thousands, so that they trod upon one another, when Jesus, addressing himself to his disciples, began by saying to them: “Be on your guard against the leaven — that is, the hypocrisy — of the Pharisees.
2 Be liligi dedeboi galea da hobea bu ba: mu. Dunu ilia da wamolegei hou huluane hobea dawa: mu.
There is nothing, however covered up, which will not be uncovered, nor anything kept secret which will not become known.
3 Dilia da gasi ganodini sia: su, hobea dunu ilia da hadigi ganodini bu nabimu. Dilia diasu ganodini sadoga sia: su, dunu ilia hobea diasu da: iyamogoa amoga heda: le, wele sia: nanumu.”
Hence all that you have said in the dark will be heard in the light, and what you have spoken in the ear, within closed doors, will be proclaimed upon the housetops.
4 “Na na: iyado dunu! Na dilima dafawane sia: sa! Da: i hodo fane legesu dunu ilima mae beda: ma. Da: i hodo medole legebeba: le, ilia eno wadela: i hou dilima hamomu hame dawa: mu.
To you who are my friends I say, Do not be afraid of those who kill the body, but after that can do no more.
5 Be afadafa fawane beda: ma! Dunu afadafa esala. E da dunu ea da: i hodo medole legele, ea a: silibu Helo sogega galadigimu dawa: Dafawane! Amo dunuma beda: ma! (Geenna g1067)
I will show you of whom you should be afraid. Be afraid of him who, after killing you, has the power to fling you into the Pit. Yes, I say, be afraid of him. (Geenna g1067)
6 Dunu ilia da diogonabo biyale gala amo doea aduna amoga bidi lasa. Be Gode da diogonabo afadafa huluane hame gogolesa.
Are not five sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them has escaped God’s notice.
7 Be, dilia! Dilia dialuma hinabo huluanedafa afae afae Gode da idisa. Amaiba: le mae beda: ma! Dilia lasu defei da diogonabo bagohame ilia lasu defei baligisa.”
No, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not be afraid; you are of more value than many sparrows.
8 “Na da dilima sia: sa. Nowa dunu da eno dunu nabima: ne, ‘Na da Gelesu dunu,’ sia: sea, amo dunu Na, Dunu Egefe, Na da Gode Ea a: igele dunu nabima: ne, amo dunu da Na fi dunu sia: mu.
Every one, I tell you, who shall acknowledge me before his fellow men, the Son of Man, also, will acknowledge before God’s angels;
9 Be nowa dunu e da eno dunu nabima: ne, ‘Na da Yesu higasa,’ sia: sea, Na da Gode Ea a: igele dunu nabima: ne, amo dunu da Na fi dunu hame sia: mu.
but he, who disowns me before his fellow men, will be altogether disowned before God’s angels.
10 Nowa da Dunu Egefema lasogole sia: sea, Gode da ea hou gogolema: ne olofomu dawa: Be nowa da Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa Ema lasogole sia: sea, e da gogolema: ne olofosu hamedafa ba: mu.
Every one who shall say anything against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but for him who slanders the Holy Spirit there will be no forgiveness.
11 Ilia da dili sinagoge diasu ganodini fofada: sea amola ouligisu hina dunuma ilima fofada: musa: hiouginana ahoasea, dilia da sia: bu adole imunu dawa: beba: le, mae da: i dioma.
Whenever they take you before the Synagogue Courts or the magistrates or other authorities, do not be anxious as to how you will defend yourselves, or what your defence will be, or what you will say;
12 Bai amo esoga, Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa da dilia bu adole iasu dilima olelemu.”
for the Holy Spirit will show you at the moment what you ought to say.”
13 Dunu gilisisu amo ganodini, dunu afae da Yesuma amane sia: i, “Olelesu! Na olama sia: ma. E da ania ada ea muni amola liligi mogili, la: idi nama ima: ne ema sia: ma.”
“Teacher,” a man in the crowd said to Jesus, “tell my brother to share the property with me.”
14 Be Yesu E bu adole i, “Na da di amola dia ola alima osobo bagade liligi hahamomusa: fofada: su dunu hame ilegei.”
But Jesus said to him: “Man, who made me a judge or an arbiter between you?”
15 Amalalu, E da dunu huluane ilima amane sia: i, “Dawa: ma! Uasu hou da dilia hou wadela: sa: besa: le dawa: ma! Dunu da liligi bagadedafa gaguiba: le, amo da ea esalusu bai hame gala.”
And then he added: “Take care to keep yourselves free from every form of covetousness; for even in the height of his prosperity a man’s true Life does not depend on what he has.”
16 Amalalu, Yesu E da fedege sia: ilima olelei, “Bagade gagui dunu afadafa ea ifabi da ha: i manu noga: le legesu.
Then Jesus told them this parable — “There was once a rich man whose land was very fertile;
17 Amalalu, e da ea asigi dawa: su ganodini agoane dawa: i, ‘Na da adi hamoma: bela: ? Na liligi legesu diasu da nabaiba: le, na ha: i manu salimu da hamedei galebe.’
and he began to ask himself ‘What shall I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops?
18 Amalalu, ea asigi dawa: su ganodini e da bu dawa: i, ‘Defea! Na liligi legesu diasu huluane na da mugululi, diasu eno bagadedafa bu gaguli, na liligi amola gagoma huluane amo ganodini salimu.
This is what I will do,’ he said; ‘I will pull down my barns and build larger ones, and store all my grain and my goods in them;
19 Amasea, na asigi dawa: su ganodini na da agoane sia: mu, ‘Defea! Di da liligi bagadewane ode bagohamega manusa: defelewane legei diala. Hawa: mae hamone, ha: i nawane, adini nawane, hahawane esaloma,’ amo na da sia: mu,’
and I will say to myself, Now you have plenty of good things put by for many years; take your ease, eat, drink, and enjoy yourself.’
20 Be Gode da ema amane sia: i, ‘Gagaoui dunu di! Wali gasia dia a: silibu Na da lamu. Amasea, dia liligi dina: fidimusa: gilisi, nowa lama: bela: ?’”
But God said to the man ‘Fool! This very night your life is being demanded; and as for all you have prepared — who will have it?’
21 Yesu da sia: dagomusa: amane sia: i, “Nowa dunu da liligi bagade gagusia, be Gode Ea hou hame lalegagusia, da amo gagaoui dunu agoane ba: mu.”
So it is with those who lay by wealth for themselves and are not rich to the glory of God.”
22 Amalalu, Yesu da Ea ado ba: su dunu ilima amane sia: i, “Amaiba: le, Na da dilima sia: sa. Dilia ha: i manusa: , da: i dioiwane mae dawa: ma. Dilia abula salimusa: , bagadewane mae dawa: ma.
And Jesus said to his disciples: “That is why I say to you, Do not be anxious about the life here — what you can get to eat; nor yet about your body — what you can get to wear.
23 Dunu ea esalusu da ha: i nasu baligi dagoi, amola da: i hodo da abula baligi dagoi.
For life is more than food, and the body than its clothes.
24 Muagado sio fi ba: ma. Ha: i manu ilia mae bugili da, udigili faisa. Ilia da ha: i manu legesu diasu hame gagusa. Be Gode da ilima ha: i manu iaha! Be dilia esalusu labe defei da ilia labe defei bagadewane baligisa.
Think of the ravens — they neither sow nor reap; they have neither storehouse nor barn; and yet God feeds them! And how much more precious are you than birds!
25 Dilia da: i dioiwane dawa: beba: le, dilia esalusu eso da eso afaewane sedagima: bela: ? Hame mabu!
But which of you, by being anxious, can prolong his life a moment?
26 Amaiba: le, amo hou fonobahadi dilia hamomu hame dawa: beba: le, abuliba: le eno liligi hamomusa: gini dilia da: i dioiwane dawa: ma: bela: ?
And, if you cannot do even the smallest thing, why be anxious about other things?
27 Sogea ilia heda: su hou ba: ma. Hawa: hamosu amola amunasu hou ilia hame dawa: Be ilia ba: su da Soloumane ea hadigi abula ba: su baligisa.
Think of the lilies, and how they grow. They neither toil nor spin; yet, I tell you, even Solomon in all his splendour was not robed like one of these.
28 Sogea gisi da wali diala be ayawane gobele nasu laluga gobesi dagoi ba: mu. Amaiba: le, Gode da amo gisi abula ida: iwane amoga idiniginisiba: le, Ea dilima imunu hou da amo hou bagadewane baligimu. Dilia dafawaneyale dawa: su hou da fonobahadi!
If, even in the field, God so clothes the grass which is living to-day and to-morrow will be thrown into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, O men of little faith!
29 Amaiba: le, dilia ha: i manu logo amola dilia hano manu logo da: i dioiwane mae dawa: ma!
And you — do not be always seeking what you can get to eat or what you can get to drink; and do not waver.
30 (Bai Gode Ea hou hame lalegagui fifi asi gala dunu amo liligima bagadewane dawa: lala.) Dilia Ada Gode da dilia wali esaloma: ne liligi lamu huluane dawa:
These are the things for which all the nations of the world are seeking, and your Father knows that you need them.
31 Be dilia Gode Ea Hinadafa Hou hidadea hogoi helema. Fa: no E da musa: sia: i liligi dilima imunu.
No, seek his Kingdom, and these things shall be added for you.
32 Sibi fi fonobahadi! Dilia mae beda: ma! Gode da Ea Hinadafa Hou, dilima imunusa: bagadewane hanai gala.
So do not be afraid, my little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the Kingdom.
33 Dilia liligi huluane bidi lale, muni lai hame gagui dunuma ima. Muni salasu, mae heane dialumu liligi lama. Gobolo liligi ida: iwane Hebene diasu ganodini hame ebelemuba: le, amo liligi lama. Agoai liligi, wamolasu dunu da hame wamolamu amola aowaba da hame wadela: lesimu.
Sell what belongs to you, and give in charity. Make yourselves purses that will not wear out — an inexhaustible treasure in Heaven, where no thief comes near, or moth works ruin.
34 Bai adi sogebiga dilia dogolegei liligi da momagei dialea, amogawi dilia asigi dawa: su da dialumu.
For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be.
35 Dilia abula salawane, gamali wa: le momagele ha: esaloma!
Make yourselves ready, with your lamps alight;
36 Hawa: hamosu dunu, ilia hina da uda lasu lolo Nasu amoga asili, e da bu misunu dawa: beba: le, ouesalumu. Dilia amo dunu ilia hou agoane hamoma. E da bu misini, logoga lulufigisia, ilia da logo hedolowane doasimu.
and be like men who are waiting for their Master’s return from his wedding, so that, when he comes and knocks, they may open the door for him at once.
37 Ilia hina da bu doaga: sea, e da ea hawa: hamosu dunu mae golale, momagele, ouesalebe ba: mu. Na dilima sia: sa. Ilia hina da ea abula idiniginisili, ilima fili, ha: i manusa: sia: beba: le, hi fawane da ha: i manu ilima imunu.
Happy are those servants whom, on his return, the Master will find watching. I tell you that he will make himself ready, and bid them take their places at table, and will come and wait upon them.
38 E da gasimogoa o fa: no agoane doaga: sea, amola ilia mae golale momagele, ha: esalebe ba: sea, ilia da hahawane bagade ba: mu.
Whether it is late at night, or in the early morning that he comes, if he finds all as it should be, then happy are they.
39 Be dawa: ma! Diasu hina da wamolasu ea misunu eso hidadea dawa: i ganiaba, e da wamolasu ea diasuga mae misa: ne ea logo ga: la: loba.
This you do know, that, had the owner of the house known at what time the thief was coming, he would have been on the watch, and would not have let his house be broken into.
40 Dilia mae golale momagele esaloma! Dilia hame dawa: i eso amoga Dunu Egefe da doaga: muba: le, mae golale esaloma.”
Do you also prepare, for when you are least expecting him the Son of Man will come.”
41 Bida e amane sia: i, “Di da amo fedege sia: niniamusu dawa: ma: ne olelebela: ? Ma dunu huluane dawa: ma: ne olelebela: ?”
“Master,” said Peter, “are you telling this parable with reference to us or to every one?”
42 Hina Yesu E bu adole i, “Moloidafa amola bagade dawa: su hawa: hamosu dunu da nowala: ? Diasu hina dunu da agoaiwane bagade dawa: su amola nabasu dunu ema ouligisu hawa: hamosu iaha. Amasea, amo dunu da ea hina ea sia: nababeba: le, e da eno hawa: hamosu dunu ilima ilia ha: i manu defelewane iaha.
“Who, then,” replied the Master, “is that trustworthy steward, the careful man, who will be placed by his master over his establishment, to give them their rations at the proper time?
43 Ea hina da bu masea, e da amo hawa: ida: iwane hamonanebe ba: beba: le, hahawane bagade ba: mu.
Happy will that servant be whom his master, when he comes home, shall find doing this.
44 Na da dilima sia: sa. Ema hahawaneba: le, ea hina da ema ea liligi amola soge huluane amoma ouligisu hou imunu.
His master, I tell you, will put him in charge of the whole of his property.
45 Be amo hawa: hamosu dunu da ea asigi dawa: su ganodini ea hina da hedolo hame misunu dawa: beba: le, e da hawa: hamosu dunu amola uda bagadewane fasea, amola e da ha: i bagade nasea amola waini hano bagade nasea, feloasa,
But should that servant say to himself ‘My master is a long time coming,’ and begin to beat the menservants and the maidservants, and to eat and drink and get drunk,
46 amo dunu ea hina da ea hame dawa: i eso amoga hedolowane doaga: mu. Amasea, hina dunu da amo wadela: i ouligisu dunu amo gegesu gobiheiga hedofale, fofonobone salimu. E da hame nabasu dunu ilia se dabe iasu amo defele lamu.
that servant’s master will come on a day when he does not expect him, and at an hour of which he is unaware, and will flog him severely and assign him his place among the untrustworthy.
47 Amasea, amo hawa: hamosu dunu da ea hina ea hanai dawa: be amo hame hamosu, e da fegasuga bagadewane fananebe ba: mu.
The servant who knows his master’s wishes and yet does not prepare and act accordingly will receive many lashes;
48 Be eno hawa: hamosu dunu, e da hame dawa: beba: le hame nabasu hou hamosea, e da fegasuga se dabe iasu fonobahadi fawane lamu. Nowa dunu da Godema bagadewane lai galea, Gode da ema bagadewane lamu. Gode da nowa dunu ema baligili bagadewane ia dagoiba: le, E da ema baligiliwane lamu.
while one who does not know his master’s wishes, but acts so as to deserve a flogging, will receive but few. From every one to whom much has been given much will be expected, and from the man to whom much has been entrusted the more will be demanded.
49 Na da osobo bagadega lalu galagudumusa: misi. Be Na da osobo bagade wahadafa lalu agoane ulagisi ganea: ba.
I came to cast fire upon the earth; and what more can I wish, if it is already kindled?
50 Na da ba: bodaise hou lalu agoane hamomu galebe, be amo hou da hame dagoiba: le, Na da se naba.
There is a baptism that I must undergo, and how great is my distress until it is over!
51 Na da osobo bagadega olofosu hou olelemusa: misibayale dilia dawa: bela: ? Hame mabu! Olofosu hame be afafasa hou na da olelela misi.
Do you think that I am here to give peace on earth? No, I tell you, but to cause division.
52 Wahawinini, sosogo fi ganodini, dunu biyale ilia da ha lamu. Nasubu na: iyado udiana ilia da eno nasubu na: iyado aduna elama gegemu. Amola aduna da eno udiana ilima gegemu.
For from this time, if there are five people in a house, they will be divided, three against two, and two against three.
53 Eda da egefema gegene, egefe da edama bu gegemu. Eme da idiwima gegene, idiwi da emema bu gegemu. Awa da ea awama gegene, amola ea awa da ema bu dabe gegemu.”
‘Father will be opposed to son and son to father, mother to daughter and daughter to mother, mother-in-law to her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law to her mother-in-law.’”
54 E da dunu huluanema eno sia: olelei agoane, “Dilia da guma: goe mu mobi heda: lebe ba: sea, dilia da hedolo, ‘Gibu sa: imu galebe,’ sia: sa. Amasea, gibu da sa: imu.
And to the people Jesus said: “When you see a cloud rising in the west, you say at once ‘There is a storm coming,’ and come it does.
55 Dilia da gagoe (south) amodili fo manebe ba: sea, dilia da ‘Eso bagade da gia: mu!’ sia: sa. Amasea, eso da gia: sa.
And when you see that the wind is in the south, you say ‘It will be burning hot,’ and so it proves.
56 Dilia ogogosu dunu! Osobo dawa: digima: ne olelesu amola mu dawa: digima: ne olelesu amo ba: beba: le, dilia fa: no misunu liligi bagade dawa: Amaiba: le, abuliba: le wali eso ea hou dili hame dawa: bela: ?”
Hypocrites! You know how to judge of the earth and the sky; how is it, then, that you cannot judge of this time?
57 “Dilia da abuliba: le hou ida: iwane amola wadela: i hou amo afafamusa: hame dawa: bela: ?
Why do not you yourselves decide what is right?
58 Dilima ha lai dunu da dilima fofada: musa: dawa: sea, defea, alia logoga ahoasea, fofada: su dunuma mae doaga: le, amo liligi hedolowane hahamoma. Agoane hame hamosea, e da fofada: su dunu ema dili gasawane hiougili, fofada: lalu, dadi gagui dunuma imunu. Amasea, dilia da se iasu diasu ganodini sali dagoi ba: mu.
When, for instance, you are going with your opponent before a magistrate, on your way to the court do your best to be quit of him; for fear that he should drag you before the judge, then the judge will hand you over to the bailiff of the court, and the bailiff throw you into prison.
59 Amo ganodini di ouesalu, dia dabe huluane ia dagoiba: le fawane, se iasu diasu logo bu doasibi ba: mu.”
You will not, I tell you, come out until you have paid the very last farthing.”
