Luka 12
1 E kindeno, kane oganda mar ji mangʼeny maromo alufe ne osechokore, makoro ginyonore giwegi, Yesu nochako wuoyo mokwongo, ni jopuonjrene kowacho niya, “Beduru motangʼ ne thowi mar jo-Farisai, ma en wuondruok.
At which time the myriads of the multitude having been gathered together, so as to tread on one another, He began to say to His disciples, first, “Take heed to yourselves of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy;
2 Onge gimoro mopandi ma ok nofweny, kata malingʼ-lingʼ ma ok nongʼere.
and there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hid that will not be known;
3 Gima usewacho e mudho biro winjore e odiechiengʼ e lela, kendo gima usekwodho e itu ei ot maiye nolandi ewi tat ot.
because whatever you said in the darkness will be heard in the light, and what you spoke to the ear in the inner-chambers will be proclaimed on the housetops.
4 “Awachonu osiepena, kik uluor jogo manego ringruok to bangʼe onge gima ginyalo medo timo.
And I say to you, my friends, do not be afraid of those killing the body, and after these things are not having anything more to do;
5 To abiro nyisou jalno monego uluor: Luoruru jalno ma, bangʼ nego ringruok, to en gi teko mar witou e ataro mar mach. Ee, awachonu, luoreuru. (Geenna g1067)
but I will show to you whom you may fear: fear Him who, after the killing, is having authority to cast into Gehenna; yes, I say to you, fear Him. (Geenna g1067)
6 Oyundi abich donge ingʼiewo otonglo ariyo kende? To kata kamano kata achiel kuomgi wi Nyasaye ok wilgo.
Are not five sparrows sold for two assaria? And one of them is not forgotten before God,
7 Chutho, kata mana yie wiu duto osekwan mongʼe kar rombgi. Kik uluor, nikech uloyo oyundi nyadi mangʼeny.
but even the hairs of your head have all been numbered; therefore do not fear, you are of more value than many sparrows.
8 “Awachonu, ngʼato angʼata mohulo ni ongʼeya e nyim ji, Wuod Dhano biro hulo ni angʼeye e nyim malaike mag Nyasaye.
And I say to you, everyone who may confess in Me before men, the Son of Man will also confess in him before the messengers of God,
9 To ngʼato angʼata mokweda e nyim ji en bende nokwede e nyim malaike mag Nyasaye.
and he who has denied Me before men, will be denied before the messengers of God,
10 Kendo ngʼato angʼata mowacho wach moro marach kuom Wuod Dhano nowene, to ngʼato angʼata ma yanyo Roho Maler ok nowene richone.
and everyone who will say a word to the Son of Man, it will be forgiven to him, but the [one] having slandered to the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.
11 “Kokelu e sinagogi, e nyim jodongo gi jotelo, to kik uparru kaka dudwok weche ma odonjnugo, kata gima duwachi,
And when they bring you before the synagogues, and the rulers, and the authorities, do not be anxious how or what you may reply, or what you may say,
12 nikech Roho Maler biro puonjou e sano gima onego uwachi.”
for the Holy Spirit will teach you in that hour what [you] should say.”
13 Ngʼat moro mane ni ei oganda nowachone niya, “Japuonj nyis owadwa mondo opogna mwanduna.”
And a certain one out of the multitude said to Him, “Teacher, say to my brother to divide with me the inheritance.”
14 Yesu nodwoko niya, “Omera en ngʼa moketa jangʼad bura kata jathek e kindu?”
And He said to him, “Man, who set Me a judge or a divider over you?”
15 Eka nowachonegi niya, “Ritreuru! Beduru motangʼ ne kit wuoro duto; ngima mar dhano ok bedi nikech mwandu mathoth ma en-go.”
And He said to them, “Observe, and beware of the covetousness, because his life is not in the abundance of one’s goods.”
16 Kendo nogoyonegi ngero moro ni: “Puoth ngʼat moro ma jamoko nochiek maber.
And He spoke an allegory to them, saying, “Of a certain rich man the field brought forth well;
17 Noparo e chunye ni, ‘Angʼo monego atim? Aonge kama dakanie chamba.’
and he was reasoning within himself, saying, What will I do, because I have nowhere I will gather together my fruits?
18 “Eka nowacho ni, ‘Ma e gima abiro timo. Abiro muko dechena kendo gero moko madongo, kendo abiro kano chamba duto gi gigena kanyo.
And he said, This I will do, I will take down my storehouses, and I will build greater ones, and I will gather together there all my products and my good things,
19 Eka anawach gie chunya niya, “Chunya in-gi gik mangʼeny mabeyo misekano moromi kuom higni mangʼeny. Koro ywe, chiem, methi kendo bed mamor.”’
and I will say to my soul, Soul, you have many good things laid up for many years, be resting, eat, drink, be merry.
20 “To Nyasaye nowachone ni, ‘In ngʼat mofuwoni! Kawuono gotienoni wangʼ nokaw ngimani. En ngʼa mabiro kawo mago miseloso ne in iwuon?’
And God said to him, Unthinking [one]! This night your life is required of you, and what things you prepared—to whom will they be [given]?
21 “Mano e kaka nobed gi ngʼato angʼata mokano gik moko ne en owuon to ok omew e yor Nyasaye.”
So [is] he who is treasuring up to himself, and is not rich toward God.”
22 Eka Yesu nowachone jopuonjrene niya, “Emomiyo awachonu ni kik uparru kuom ngimau, kata kuom gik ma ubiro chamo, kata kuom dendu, kata gik ma ubiro rwako.
And He said to His disciples, “Because of this, to you I say, do not be anxious for your life, what you may eat; nor for the body, what you may put on;
23 Ngima duongʼ moloyo chiemo, kendo del duongʼ moloyo lewni.
life is more than nourishment, and the body than clothing.
24 Paruruane winy ma ok chwo cham to bende ok gikee, gionge gi kuonde keno kata dere; to Nyasaye pod pidhogi apidha. To un donge uber moloyo winy.
Consider the ravens, that they do not sow, nor reap, to which there is no barn nor storehouse, and God nourishes them; how much better are you than the birds?
25 En ngʼa kuomu ma parruok moparorego nyalo miyo omed bedo mangima kata mana kuom sa achiel kende?
And who of you, being anxious, is able to add to his age one cubit?
26 To kaka ok unyal timo mani matin-ni, angʼo momiyo uparoru kuom gik mamoko?
If, then, you are not able for the least—why are you anxious for the rest?
27 “Paruruane kaka ondanyo dongo. Ok ginyagre gi tich kata gi chwecho. To kata kamano awachonu ni kata mana Solomon e rwakruokne malich duto ne ok orwakore ka achiel kuomgi.
Consider the lilies, how do they grow? They do not labor, nor do they spin, and I say to you, not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed as one of these;
28 Ka kamano e kaka Nyasaye rwako lum aluma manie pap, ma kawuono nitie to kiny iwite e mach, to koro un dorwaku, machal nade, yaye un joma yiegi tin-gi?
and if the herbage in the field, that today is, and tomorrow is cast into an oven, God so clothes, how much more you of little faith?
29 Kendo kik uket chunyu kuom gima dicham kata madi madhi, kik uparru kuom mago.
And you—do not seek what you may eat, or what you may drink, and do not be in suspense,
30 Nimar jopiny ema chandore ka dwaro gigi duto, to bende Wuonu ongʼeyo ni udwaro gigi duto.
for the nations of the world seek after all these things, and your Father has known that you have need of these things;
31 To dwaruru pinyruoth Nyasaye, eka gigi duto bende nomiu kaachiel gi mago.
but seek the Kingdom of God, and all these things will be added to you.
32 “Kik uluor un kweth matin, nikech Wuonu mor mar miyou pinyruoth.
Do not fear, little flock, because your Father delighted to give you the kingdom;
33 Lok gigi iyudgo pesa mondo imi joma odhier. Dwaruru ofuke magu mikane pesa ma ok yiechi ma en mwandu manie polo ma ok rum kuma jakuo ok chopie kata olwenda ok kethi.
sell your goods, and give alms, make to yourselves bags that do not become old, a treasure unfailing in the heavens, where thief does not come near, nor moth destroy;
34 Nimar kama mwanduni nitie e kama chunyi bende nobedie.
for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
35 “Rwakreuru ka uikoru ne tich kendo techeu osik kaliel,
Let your loins be girded, and the lamps burning,
36 ka joma rito ruodhgi maduogo koa e nyasi mar arus, mondo kobiro kendo oduongʼo to giyawone dhoot piyo.
and you [be] like to men waiting for their lord when he will return out of the wedding feasts, that he having come and knocked, immediately they may open to him.
37 Nobed maber ni jotich ma ruodhgi noyud karito e kinde modwogo. Awachonu adiera ni norwakre gi lawe mondo omigi chiemo, nomi gibed e mesa mi nobi mopognegi chiemo.
Blessed those servants, whom the lord, having come, will find watching; truly I say to you that he will gird himself, and will cause them to recline, and having come near, will minister to them;
38 Nobed maber ne jotije ma ruodhgi noyud ka oikore kata ka obiro e arita mar ariyo kata mar adek gotieno.
and if he may come in the second watch, and in the third watch he may come, and may find [it] so, blessed are those servants.
39 To ngʼeuru ma maber ni ka dine wuon ot ngʼe ni kar sa adi ma jakuo biroe to dine ok oweyo ode otur gi jakuo.
And know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief comes, he would have watched, and would not have permitted his house to be broken through;
40 Omiyo kamano e kaka un bende onego ubed moikore, nikech Wuod Dhano biro biro sa ma ok ungʼeyo.”
and you, then, become ready, because at the hour you do not think, the Son of Man comes.”
41 Petro nopenje niya, “Ruoth iwacho ngeroni ni wan koso ni ji duto?”
And Peter said to Him, “Lord, do You speak this allegory to us, or also to all?”
42 To Ruoth nodwoko niya, “Kare jatich ma ja-adiera kendo ma jatelo mariek en ngʼa, ma ruodhe omiyo tich mar rito jotije ka miyogi chiembgi e sa mowinjore?
And the LORD said, “Who, then, is the faithful and prudent steward whom the lord will set over his household, to give in season the wheat measure?
43 Jatijno none ber ka ruodhe odwogo to noyude kotimo gima noweye notim.
Blessed that servant, whom his lord, having come, will find doing so;
44 Awachonu adier ni obiro kete jarit mwandune duto.
truly I say to you that he will set him over all his goods.
45 To kapo ni jatijno owacho e chunye owuon ni, ‘Ruodha, okawo ndalo mathoth kapok odwogo,’ mi ochako goyo jotich machwo gi mon kendo owere ne chiemo gi metho, kod mer.
And if that servant may say in his heart, My lord delays to come, and may begin to beat the menservants and the maidservants, to eat also, and to drink, and to be drunken,
46 Ruodh jatijno nobi e odiechiengʼ ma ok opar ni dobie kendo e sa ma ok ongʼeyo, enongʼade matindo tindo mi okete kaachiel gi joma ok oyie.
the lord of that servant will come in a day in which he does not look for [him], and in an hour that he does not know, and will cut him off, and he will appoint his portion with the unfaithful.
47 “Jatijno mongʼeyo dwaro mar ruodhe to ok otem timo gima ruodhe dwaro nochwad mangʼeny.
And that servant, who having known his lord’s will, and having not prepared, nor having gone according to his will, will be beaten with many stripes,
48 To mano ma ok ongʼeyo to otimo gik mowinjore gi kum, to nochwad manok. Ngʼato ka ngʼato ma osemi mangʼeny nodwar kuome gik mangʼeny, to jal ma osemi mangʼeny mondo oriti, enopenje mangʼeny moloyo.
and he who, not having known, and having done things worthy of stripes, will be beaten with few; and to everyone to whom much was given, much will be required from him; and to whom they committed much, more abundantly they will ask of him.
49 “Asebiro mondo amok mach e piny, to mano kaka agombo ni mad ne bed ni osemoke!
I came to cast fire to the earth, and what I wish [is] if it were already kindled!
50 Nitie batiso monego ayudi. To mano kaka chunya chandore nyaka chop otimre!
But I have an immersion to be immersed with, and how I am pressed until it may be accomplished!
51 Uparo ni ne abiro mondo akel kwe e piny? Ooyo, to awachonu ni ne akelo mana pogruok.
Do you think that I came to give peace in the earth? No, I say to you, but rather division;
52 Chakre kawuono kadhi nyime ji abich ma joot achiel biro pogore, ji adek odok kon achiel to ji ariyo bende nodog komachielo.
for there will be from now on five in one house divided—three against two, and two against three;
53 Gibiro pogore, wuoro nopogre gi wuode kendo wuowi bende nopogre gi wuon, miyo nopogre gi nyare to nyako bende nopogre gi min, dayo nopogre gi chi wuode, chi wuowi bende nopogre gi damare.”
a father will be divided against a son, and a son against a father, a mother against a daughter, and a daughter against a mother, a mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.”
54 Nowacho ni oganda niya, “Kuneno ka boche polo chokore yo podho chiengʼ to piyo piyo uwacho ni, ‘Koth biro chue,’ to timore kamano!
And He also said to the multitudes, “When you may see the cloud rising from the west, immediately you say, A shower comes, and it is so;
55 Kendo ka yamb milambo kudho to uwacho ni oro biro to kamano e kaka timore.
and when a south wind is blowing, you say that there will be heat, and it is;
56 Andhokegi! Ka ulony kuom rango chal mar piny gi polo to angʼo momiyo ok unyal ngʼeyo gik matimore ndalogi?
hypocrites! You have known to discern the face of the earth and of the sky, but how do you not discern this time?
57 “Angʼo mamonou ngʼado bura mar gima kare?
And why, also, of yourselves, do you not judge what is righteous?
58 Ka idhi gi ngʼama odonjoni e nyim jangʼad bura, tem matek mondo iwuo kode kendo uwinjru kapod un e yo, nono to obiro ywayi koteri ir jangʼad bura, to jangʼad bura biro keti e lwet askari, to askari biro boli e od twech.
For as you are going away with your opponent to the ruler, in the way give diligence to be released from him, lest he may drag you to the judge, and the judge may deliver you to the officer, and the officer may cast you into prison;
59 Awachoni ni ok niwuog oko nyaka ichul faini duto monego ichul ma ok orem kata ndururu.”
I say to you, you may not come forth from there until even the last mite you may give back.”
