Luke 16
1 And he also said to his disciples, There was a certain rich man who had a manager, and this man was accused to him as squandering things possessed by him.
A PIL kotin majani on tounpadak kan: Ol kapwapwa men mia, me a jaunkoa men indandeki, a peitlakit a koa kapwa kan.
2 And having called him, he said to him, What is this I hear about thee? Render the account of thy management, for thou can no longer manage.
I ari eker don i indan i: Iaduen ai ronadar duen koe? Kaineneta noum kijin likau duen om dodok! Pwe koe jolar kak jaunkoa.
3 And the manager said within himself, What shall I do because my lord takes away the management from me? I am not able to dig. I am ashamed to beg.
Jaunkoa ap madamadaua indada: Da me i en wia, pwe ai monjap pan ki jan ia ai koa, nan I jota kak weweir, a poekipoeki me i namenokki.
4 I know what I will do, so that when I am removed from the management they may receive me into their houses.
I ap ajada, me i pan wia, i lao japwilidi jan ai koa, pwe irail en kajamo ia Ion on nan im ar akan.
5 And having summoned each one of his lord's debtors, he said to the first, How much do thou owe to my lord?
I ari ekeredo me pwaipwand on a monjap, ap idok ren men maj: Da me om pwaipwand on ai monjap?
6 And he said, A hundred measures of olive oil. And he said to him, Receive thy document, and having sat down, quickly write fifty.
A inda: Potel en le epuki. A indai on i: Ale noum puk mondi pitipit intiniedi me limeijok!
7 Next he said to another, And how much do thou owe? And he said, A hundred measures of wheat. And he says to him, Receive thy document, and write eighty.
Ap pil indai on amen: A koe, da me om pwaipwand? A inda: Kopa en wan korn epuki. A indan i: Ale noum puk intiniedi me waleijok!
8 And his lord commended the unrighteous manager because he did shrewdly. Because the sons of this age are shrewder in their own generation than the sons of the light. (aiōn g165)
Monjap ap kapina jaunkoa japun, pweki a dodok lolekon. Pwe jeri en jappa kan me lolekon ni jon ar jan jeri en marain akan. (aiōn g165)
9 And I say to you, make friends for yourselves from the mammon of unrighteousness, so that, when ye cease, they may receive you into the eternal dwellings. (aiōnios g166)
I ap indai on komail, komail wia kompoke pamail ki mamon japun pwe komail lao jama malar, ren kajamolon on nan deu potopot. (aiōnios g166)
10 The man faithful in the least is faithful also in much, and the man unrighteous in the least is unrighteous also in much.
Meamen apwali mau me tikitik o, nan i me pil kin apwali mau me lapalap. A me kin japun ni me tikitik o, nan i me pil japun ni me toto.
11 If therefore ye did not become faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will entrust to you what is true?
Ma komail jota apwali mau ai pali pa, ij me pan liki on omail pai pali poa?
12 And if ye did not become faithful in the alien, who will give thine to you?
O ma komail jota apwali mau en amen a kapwa, ij me pan liki on komail me udan omail?
13 No servant can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will hold to one and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
Jota ladu men me pan kak papa jaumaj riamen; pwe a pan kailonki amen o pok on me teio. De kajampwaleki amen o mama leki me teio. Komail jota pan kak pariai pena Kot o mamon.
14 And the Pharisees, being lovers of money, heard all these things, and they sneered him.
Pari jar akan, me kin pok on moni, pil ronadar mepukat, ap kaurureki i.
15 And he said to them, Ye are those who declare yourselves righteous in the sight of men, but God knows your hearts. Because what is lofty among men is an abomination in the sight of God.
A kotin majani on irail: Nan komail me kin akapunki pein komail ren aramaj, a Kot kin mani nan monion omail. Pwe me kajampwal ren aramaj, kin me mal ren Kot.
16 The law and the prophets were until John. From that time the kingdom of God is proclaimed good news, and every man in it is treated aggressively.
Kapun o jaukop akan kokoper lel ni muein Ioanej. A jan ni anjau o ronamau en wein Kot kin lolok jili, a karoj kin pedelonki manaman.
17 But it is easier for the heaven and the earth to pass away, than for one tittle of the law to fall.
Nan me monai, lan o jappa pan jorela, jan ekij kijan kapun en lokidokila.
18 Every man who divorces his wife and marries another, commits adultery, and every man who marries her who has been divorced from a husband commits adultery.
Meamen kajela a paud, ap paudeki amen li, nan i me kamal, o meamen me paudekida me lokidokila jan ren ol amen, nan i me kamal.
19 Now there was a certain rich man, and he was clothed in purple and fine linen, faring sumptuously daily.
Ol kapwapwa men mia, me a likau waitata o materok o a kin kamadip o peren ni ran karoj.
20 But there was a certain poor man named Lazarus, who had been placed near his gate, covered with sores,
O pil amen ol me jamama, ad a Lajaruj, me kin wonon pan wanim en ol kapwapwa o; a kenjela kili karoj.
21 and longing to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man's table. But even the dogs that came licked his sores.
Ap men tunole maremor akan, me kin pupedi ni tepel en me kapwapwa; a kidi kan kin tamotamo a kenj akan.
22 And it came to pass for the poor man to die and be carried by the agents to Abraham's bosom. And the rich man also died and was buried.
A kadekadeo me jamama o mela o tounlan kai ap wadala pon kapa en Apraam. A me kapwapwa o pil mela o jaredier.
23 And having lifted up his eyes in Hades, being in torments, he sees Abraham from afar and Lazarus by his bosom. (Hadēs g86)
Ni a mi nan pweleko, wajan waiwairok, ap jarada, udial Apraam ni waja doo o Lajaruj mondi pon kapa, (Hadēs g86)
24 And having cried out, he said, Father Abraham, be merciful to me, and send Lazarus, so that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this flame.
Ap likwirda indada: Jam (ai) Apraam, kom kotin kupura ia, poronedo Lajaruj en kaduedi jondin pa a nan pil, ki on pon lo i, pwe i kin waiwairok nani iai wet.
25 But Abraham said, Child, remember that thou in thy lifetime received thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things. But now here he is comforted and thou are in agony.
A Apraam kotin majani: Nai, tamanda, me koe tunoler om mau kan karoj ni maur om, a Lajaruj a me jued akan; ari a pan pereperenta, a koe pan kalokolok.
26 And besides all these things, between us and you a great chasm is fixed, so that those here who want to cross over to you are not able, nor may those go across from there to us.
A pil eu me kawela, wau kalaimun eu mi nan pun atail, pwe ma amen kit men japale won re omail, a jota pan kak, pil jota amen komail pan kakedo.
27 And he said, I beg thee therefore, father, that thou would send him to my father's house,
A ap inda: I ap men poeki, jam ai, komui en kotin poronelan Lajaruj nan im en jam ai.
28 for I have five brothers, that he may testify to them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
Pwe ri ai ol me limen, me a pan kaajaki irail; pwe ren de lel on waja apwal wet!
29 But Abraham says to him, They have Moses and the prophets. Let them hear them.
A Apraam majani on i: Mojej o jaukop akan mi re’rail, ren nok ron irail.
30 And he said, No, father Abraham, but if some man would go to them from the dead they will repent.
A ol o potoan on: Kaidin jam (ai) Apraam, a ma amen jan ren me melar akan pan pwara don irail, rap pan kalula.
31 And he said to him, If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded if some man would rise from the dead.
A ap majani on i: Ma re jota pan ron Mojej o jaukop akan, re pil jota pan pojon la, ma amen pan maureda jan ren me melar akan.
