Luke 14
1 And it came to pass, that he went, on the sabbath-day, into the house of one of the chief men of the Pharisees, to eat bread; and they watched him.
Ary raha niditra mba hihinana tao an-tranon’ ny loholona anankiray amin’ ny Fariseo Izy tamin’ ny Sabata, dia nizaha taratra Azy ireo.
2 And behold, there was a man before him, who had the dropsy.
Ary, indro, nisy olona manirano anankiray teo anatrehany.
3 And Jesus answered and spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying: Is it lawful to cure on the sabbath-day?
Ary Jesosy namaly ka nanao tamin’ ny mpahay lalàna sy ny Fariseo hoe: Mety va ny mahasitrana amin’ ny Sabata, sa tsia?
4 But they were silent. And he took him, and healed him, and let him go.
Fa tsy niteny ireo. Ary Izy nanendry ilay marary, dia nahasitrana azy ka nandefa azy handeha.
5 And he answered and said to them: Which of you, if his son or his ox should fall into a pit, would not immediately pull him out on the sabbath-day?
Ary Izy nanao tamin’ ireo hoe: Iza moa aminareo, raha manana boriky na omby latsaka ao an-davaka fantsakana, no tsy hampakatra azy miaraka amin’ izay na dia amin’ ny andro Sabata aza?
6 And they were not able to give him an answer to these things.
Ary tsy nahavaly ny amin’ izany zavatra izany izy.
7 And he spoke a parable to those who had been invited, when he observed how they were choosing the first places at table; and he said to them:
Ary Jesosy nanao fanoharana tamin’ izay nasaina, raha nahita azy mifidy ny fitoerana aloha, ka nanao taminy hoe:
8 When you are invited by any one to a wedding, do not recline in the first place, lest a more honorable man than you may have been invited by him;
Raha misy maka anao ho any amin’ ny fampakaram-bady, aza mipetraka eo amin’ ny fitoerana aloha, fandrao hisy olona nalaina izay mihaja kokoa noho ianao,
9 and he that invited you and him, come and say to you, Give place to this man; and then you shall begin with shame to take the last place.
ary ho avy izay nanasa anao sy izy ka hilaza aminao hoe: Omeo toerana io olona io: dia ho menatra ianao ka hifindra ho any amin’ ny fitoerana aoriana indrindra.
10 But when you are invited, go and recline in the last place, that when he that invited you shall come, he may say to you, Friend, go up higher. Then you shall have honor in the presence of those who recline with you.
Fa raha misy manasa anao, mandehana ka mipetraha eo amin’ ny fitoerana aoriana indrindra, ary rehefa tonga ilay nanasa anao, dia mahazo manao aminao hoe: Ry sakaiza, mandrosoa etsy alohaloha kokoa; dia hahazo haja eo imason’ izay rehetra miara-mipetraka mihinana aminao ianao.
11 For every one that exalts himself shall be humbled; and he that humbles himself shall be exalted.
Fa izay rehetra manandra-tena no haetry; ary izay manetry tena no hasandratra.
12 Then he said also to him that had invited him: When you make a dinner or a supper, call not your friends, nor your brothers, nor your relatives, nor your rich neighbors, lest they also invite you in return, and a recompense be made you.
Ary hoy Jesosy tamin’ ilay nanasa Azy kosa: Raha manasa olona amin’ ny sakafo antoandro na ny sakafo hariva ianao, dia aza ny sakaizanao, na ny rahalahinao, na ny havanao, na ny namanao manan-karena, no asainao, fandrao hanasa anao kosa ireo, ka dia ho voavaliny ianao.
13 But when you make a feast, invite the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind;
Fa raha manao fanasana ianao, dia asao ny malahelo, ny kilemaina, ny mandringa, ny jamba;
14 and you shall be blessed; for they have no power to repay you; but you shall be repaid at the resurrection of the just.
dia ho sambatra ianao, satria tsy mba manan-kavaly ireo; fa hovaliana kosa ianao amin’ ny fitsanganan’ ny marina.
15 And a certain one of those who reclined at table with him, after hearing these things, said to him: Blessed is he who shall cat bread in the kingdom of God.
Ary ny anankiray tamin’ izay niara-nipetraka nihinana taminy dia nandre izany ka nanao taminy hoe: Sambatra izay hihinan-kanina ao amin’ ny fanjakan’ Andriamanitra.
16 And he said to him: A certain man made a great supper, and invited many.
Fa hoy Jesosy taminy: Nisy olona anankiray nanao fanasana lehibe ka nanasa olona maro.
17 And he sent his servant at the hour of supper, to say to those who had been invited, Come, for all things are now ready.
Ary naniraka ny mpanompony izy tamin’ ny fotoana fisakafoana hilaza amin’ izay efa nasaina hoe: Andeha, fa efa voavoatra izao ny fanasana.
18 And they all, with one consent, began to make excuse. The first said to him, I have bought a farm, and I must go and see it; I pray you, have me excused.
Fa izy rehetra dia nitovy saina, ka samy nanao fialàna. Hoy ny voalohany taminy: Efa nividy tany aho ka tsy maintsy mandeha hizaha azy; masìna ianao, ekeo ny fandavako.
19 And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to try them; I pray you, have me excused.
Ary hoy ny anankiray koa: Efa nividy omby folo aho ka handeha hamantatra azy; masìna ianao, ekeo ny fandavako.
20 And another said, I have married a wife, and, for this reason, I can not come.
Ary hoy ny anankiray koa: Efa nampaka-bady aho, koa amin’ izany tsy afaka mankany.
21 And that servant came and told his lord these things. Then the master of the house was angry, and said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor and the maimed, the lame and the blind.
Ary nony tonga ilay mpanompo, dia nambarany tamin’ ny tompony izany. Dia tezitra ny tompon-trano ka nanao tamin’ ilay mpanompony hoe: Mandehana faingana ho eny amin’ ny lalambe sy ny sakeli-dalana eto an-tanàna, ka ampidiro ny malahelo sy ny kilemaina sy ny jamba ary ny mandringa.
22 And the servant said, Lord, it is done as you commanded, and yet there is room.
Ary hoy ilay mpanompo: Tompoko, efa natao izay nandidianao, ary mbola tsy feno ihany ny trano.
23 And the lord said to his servant, Go out into the roads, and among the hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be full.
Ary hoy ny tompo tamin’ ilay mpanompony: Mandehana ho eny amin’ ny lalambe sy ny sisim-boly, ka tereo ny olona hiditra, mba ho feno ny tranoko.
24 For I say to you, that not one of those men who have been invited, shall taste of my supper.
Fa lazaiko aminareo: Tsy hisy hanandrana ny nahandroko ireny olona nasaiko ireny na dia iray akory aza.
25 And many multitudes were journeying with him; and he turned and said to them:
Ary nisy vahoaka betsaka niaraka tamin’ i Jesosy, dia nitodika Izy ka nanao taminy hoe:
26 If any one comes to me, and hates not his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, and his own life also, he can not be my disciple.
Raha misy manaraka Ahy ka tsy mankahala ny rainy sy ny reniny sy ny vadiny sy ny zanany sy ny rahalahiny sy ny anabaviny, eny, ary ny ainy koa aza, dia tsy azo ekena ho mpianatro izy.
27 And whoever does not bear his cross, and come after me, can not be my disciple.
Na zovy na zovy no tsy mitondra ny hazo fijaliana ka tsy manaraka Ahy, dia tsy azo ekena ho mpianatro izy.
28 For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not first sit down, and count the cost, whether he has the means to finish it?
Fa iza moa aminareo, raha ta-hanao tilikambo, no tsy mipetraka aloha mihevitra izay ho lany hanaovany izany, na misy hahavitany azy, na tsia?
29 Lest, when he has laid the foundation, and is not able to finish, all that see it begin to deride him,
fandrao, rehefa nanao ny fanorenana izy ka tsy mahavita, dia handatsa azy izay rehetra mahita
30 saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish.
ka hanao hoe: Io olona io dia nanomboka nanao trano, fa tsy nahavita.
31 Or, what king, going to make war against another king, does not first sit down, and deliberate whether he is able, with ten thousand, to meet him that is coming; against him with twenty thousand?
Ary iza moa no mpanjaka, raha handeha hiady amin’ ny mpanjaka hafa, no tsy mipetraka aloha mba haka hevitra tsara, na mahay mandresy ilay mitondra roa alina amin’ ny iray alina izy, na tsia?
32 And if not, while he is yet at a distance, he sends an embassy, and asks for conditions of peace.
Fa raha tsy izany, raha mbola lavitra ny mpanjaka anankiray, dia hampitondra teny izy ka hangataka fihavanana.
33 So, then, whoever of you does not forsake all that he has, can not be my disciple.
Ary toy izany koa ianareo rehetra, izay tsy mahafoy izay rehetra anananareo, dia tsy azo ekena ho mpianatro.
34 Salt is good; but if the salt become tasteless, by what means shall it become salt again?
Koa tsara ny sira; fa raha ny sira aza no tonga matsatso, inona indray no hahasira azy?
35 It is fit neither for earth, nor for manure; but they cast it out. He that has ears to hear, let him hear.
Tsy mahasoa ny tany na ny zezika izy, fa harian’ ny olona. Izay manan-tsofina ho enti-mihaino, aoka izy hihaino.
