Luke 18
1 Then Jesus told them a parable about their need to pray at all times and not lose heart:
Lao esa, Yesus nanori ana dedꞌenu nara nendiꞌ nekendandaaꞌ, fo ara hule-oꞌe, nda namaꞌetu sa, no nda male-maꞌa sa. Ara musi ramahere rakandoo neu Lamatuaꞌ.
2 “In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected men.
Dꞌudꞌuin taꞌo ia: “Sia kota esa hambu mana nggero-furiꞌ sa nda mana tao-afiꞌ neu Lamatualain sa. Ana nda tao-afiꞌ neu esa sa boe.
3 And there was a widow in that town who kept appealing to him, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’
Sia naa o hambu ina falu sa akaꞌ neu noꞌe mana nggero-furiꞌ a nae, ‘Amaꞌ mana nggero-furiꞌ! Muꞌetuꞌ dedꞌea ngga no matetuꞌ, o!’
4 For a while he refused, but later he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect men,
Fefeun mana nggero-furiꞌ a nda tao-afiꞌ neu ina falu a sa. Te dodꞌoo ma ana bengge rena e ena. Boe ma ana dudꞌuꞌa nae, ‘Memaꞌ au ia nda tao-afiꞌ neu Lamatualain sa, lelenan fai neu atahori.
5 yet because this widow keeps pestering me, I will give her justice. Then she will stop wearing me out with her perpetual requests.’”
Te ina falu ia tao langga ngga nambeta ena. Huu naa, malole lenaꞌ au uꞌetuꞌ dedꞌeat na no ndoos. Hokoꞌ na, ana akaꞌ nema tao naꞌabꞌebꞌenggeꞌ au nakandondooꞌ a.’
6 And the Lord said, “Listen to the words of the unjust judge.
Naa, hei dꞌua sobꞌa mana nggero-furiꞌ dꞌeulakaꞌ naa oꞌolan.
7 Will not God bring about justice for His elect who cry out to Him day and night? Will He continue to defer their help?
Mete ma dodꞌoo ma ana tulu-fali ina falu a, na, Lamatualain o nau tulu-fali atahori mana hule-oꞌe hatuꞌ-rerelon fo noꞌe tulu-faliꞌ sia E. Te Lamatuaꞌ nda mana eꞌo-lali fai a sa.
8 I tell you, He will promptly carry out justice on their behalf. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on earth?”
Ana naꞌetuꞌ dedꞌeat nara lai-lai, Naa de Au ae utane taꞌo ia: mete ma Au, atahori Tebꞌe-Tebꞌeꞌ ia, baliꞌ uma ena, neꞌo Au feꞌe hambu undaa o atahori mamahereꞌ sia raefafoꞌ do hokoꞌ?”
9 To some who trusted in their own righteousness and viewed others with contempt, He also told this parable:
Yesus dui seluꞌ nekendandaaꞌ sa, soꞌal atahori mana hii nananaru aon ma naloe-nadꞌae atahori laen ra. Ana dui nae,
10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray. One was a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.
“Hambu amaꞌ rua reu hule-oꞌe sia Ume Hule-oꞌe Huuꞌ a. Esa, atahori mia partei agama Farisi; esa fai, mana edꞌa bea. [Atahori Yahudi ra rae atahori Farisi ra, atahori meumareꞌ. Ma ara rae mana edꞌa bea ra atahori nda maloleꞌ ra sa.]
11 The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed, ‘God, I thank You that I am not like the other men—swindlers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector.
Losa ume hule-oꞌeꞌ ma, atahori Farisi a nambariiꞌ mesaꞌ ne ma hule-oꞌe nae, ‘Makasi Lamatuaꞌ, huu au ia, atahori maloleꞌ. Au nda deꞌulakaꞌ onaꞌ atahori laen ra sa. Au nda dadꞌi naꞌo sa. Au nda mana usuu-usetiꞌ sa. Au nda mana hohonggeꞌ sa. Makasi, Lamatuaꞌ, huu au o nda deꞌulakaꞌ onaꞌ mana edꞌa bea ia sa.
12 I fast twice a week and pay tithes of all that I acquire.’
Au manggate puasa nggarei sa na lao rua. Ma au endi babꞌanggiꞌ esa mia sanahulu mia basa saa fo au hambuꞌ a.’ Atahori Farisi naa hule-oꞌe taꞌo naa.
13 But the tax collector stood at a distance, unwilling even to lift up his eyes to heaven. Instead, he beat his breast and said, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner!’
Te mana edꞌa bea a nambariiꞌ naꞌadꞌodꞌooꞌ sia dea-deaꞌ. Ana nda nambarani botiꞌ matan fo mete ataꞌ neu sa. Ana hule-oꞌe no beꞌutee langgan ma rala mambalulutuꞌ nae, O, Lamatualain. Kasian au, atahori mana masala-singgoꞌ ia! Fee ambon neu au dꞌei!’
14 I tell you, this man, rather than the Pharisee, went home justified. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”
Naa, leleꞌ atahori karuaꞌ naa ra lao baliꞌ ume reu, mae bee ka maloleꞌ no Lamatualain? Atahori Farisi mana koaoꞌ a do, atahori mana edꞌa bea? Tantu Ana simbo no maloleꞌ mana edꞌa bea, mana naloe-nadꞌae ralan. Ma Ana nda tao-afiꞌ neu atahori Farisi a sa. Huu Lamatualain naꞌatutudꞌaꞌ atahori mana koaoꞌ ma nananaru atahori mana naloe-nadꞌae ralan.”
15 Now people were even bringing their babies to Jesus for Him to place His hands on them. And when the disciples saw this, they rebuked those who brought them.
Lao esa, atahori ra oꞌo ro anadikiꞌ ra reu Yesus, fo Ana ndae liman neu se ma olaꞌ fee se papala-babꞌanggiꞌ. Yesus ana dedꞌenu nara rita taꞌo naa, ma ara ai atahori naa ra.
16 But Jesus called the children to Him and said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them! For the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
Te Yesus simbo nala anadikiꞌ mana rema risiꞌ E. Basa ma ana ai ana dedꞌenun nara nae, “Hela fo anadikiꞌ naa ra rema risiꞌ Au. Ama afiꞌ ai se. Misinedꞌa malolole! Huu atahori mana nae dadꞌi Lamatualain atahorin, ana musi namahena neuꞌ a Lamatualain, ona anadikiꞌ namahena neu ina-ama nara.”
17 Truly I tell you, anyone who does not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”
18 Then a certain ruler asked Him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
Lao esa, hambu atahori Yahudi ra malanggan esa neu natane Yesus nae, “Ama Meser nenefee hadꞌa-hormat! Au musi tao taꞌo bee fo uhine ae bisa masoꞌ sorga uu fo usodꞌa ukundoo o Lamatualain?” (aiōnios g166)
19 “Why do you call Me good?” Jesus replied. “No one is good except God alone.
Boe ma Yesus nataa nae, “Taꞌo bee de moꞌe mae, ‘Mana nenefee hadꞌa-hormat’? Akaꞌ esaꞌ a nenefee hadꞌa-hormat, naeni Lamatualain.
20 You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not bear false witness, honor your father and mother.’”
Naa! Ho bubꞌuluꞌ ena, to, Lamatualain hohoro-lalanen mia fai dalahulun, oi: Afiꞌ hohongge; afiꞌ tati-mbau misa atahori; Afiꞌ miminaꞌo; Afi dadꞌi sakasii peko-lelekoꞌ; ma fee hadꞌa-hormat neu ina-ama mara.”
21 “All these I have kept from my youth,” he said.
Atahori naa nataa nae, “Tebꞌe, Amaꞌ! Au tungga hohoro-lalaneꞌ naa ra eniꞌ a aꞌana ngga.”
22 On hearing this, Jesus told him, “You still lack one thing: Sell everything you own and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me.”
Rena taꞌo naa ma, Yesus nae, “Malole! Te feꞌe hela dalaꞌ esa fai. Naeni, baliꞌ fo muu seo hendi basa hata-heto mara. Basa naa, muu babꞌanggi dꞌoiꞌ naa ra reu atahori mana tudꞌa-loloeꞌ ra. Dei fo baliꞌ uma fo tungga Au leo. Te dei fo Lamatualain bala-bꞌae fee nggo hata-hetoꞌ sia sorga.”
23 But when the ruler heard this, he became very sad, because he was extremely wealthy.
Atahori naa rena taꞌo naa, ma ralan susa, huu suꞌin naen seli.
24 Seeing the man’s sadness, Jesus said, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!
Yesus mete ana laoꞌ no rala nambalulutu, ma Ana nafadꞌe ana dedꞌenun nara nae, “Atahori mamasuꞌiꞌ memaꞌ susa seli masoꞌ sorga neu.
25 Indeed, it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”
Hita taꞌasasamaꞌ no dalaꞌ laen fai. Memaꞌ bꞌanda onta monaeꞌ a nda bisa lalaet rala neu tungga sosoot ndolan sa. Onaꞌ naa boe atahori mana namahenaꞌ a hata-heton, te nda namahena neu Lamatuaꞌ sa, ana o nda bisa masoꞌ sorga rala neu sa boe.
26 Those who heard this asked, “Who then can be saved?”
Atahori mana rena Yesus olaꞌ taꞌo naa, ratane E rae, “Mete ma memaꞌ atahori mamasuꞌiꞌ susa taꞌo naa, na, atahori mataꞌ bee mana hambu masoi-masodꞌaꞌ?”
27 But Jesus said, “What is impossible with man is possible with God.”
Yesus nataa nae, “Soaꞌ neu atahori, memaꞌ dalaꞌ hetar nda bisa dadꞌi sa. Te soaꞌ neu Lamatualain basaꞌ e bisa dadꞌi.”
28 “Look,” said Peter, “we have left all we had to follow You.”
Boe ma Petrus olaꞌ nae, “Amaꞌ! Hai lao hela basa hata-heto mara ena, fo tungga Amaꞌ. Te dei fo hai hambu saa?”
29 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or wife or brothers or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God
Yesus nataa nae, “Petrus! Rena malolole! Atahori mana lao hela umen, saon, odi-aꞌa nara, ama-ina nara, do ana nara, huu nalalao Lamatualain ue-tataos nara,
31 Then Jesus took the Twelve aside and said to them, “Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and everything the prophets have written about the Son of Man will be fulfilled.
Yesus no ana dedꞌenun atahori kasanahulu rua ra fo neu olaꞌ mesaꞌ ne no se nae, “Basa hei bubꞌuluꞌ mae, ia naa hita lao tisiꞌ kota Yerusalem ena. Losa naa, basa dalaꞌ fo Lamatuaꞌ mana ola-ola nara suraꞌ feꞌesaꞌan soꞌal Atahori Matetuꞌ naa, dei fo dadꞌi onaꞌ saa mana nenesuraꞌ helaꞌ ena.
32 He will be delivered over to the Gentiles and will be mocked and insulted and spit upon.
Dei fo ara fee Au neu atahori deaꞌ mana nda ramahere neu Lamatualain sa. Boe ma ara raneneut Au, raꞌamamaeꞌ Au no mataꞌ-mataꞌ, puras miru neu Au,
33 They will flog Him and kill Him, and on the third day He will rise again.”
filo Au, basa ma tao risa Au. Te fai katelun, ma Au usodꞌa baliꞌ.”
34 But the disciples did not understand any of these things. The meaning was hidden from them, and they did not comprehend what He was saying.
Rena Yesus olaꞌ taꞌo naa ma, ana dedꞌenu nara bingun, huu ara nda feꞌe rahine dedꞌea-oꞌolaꞌ naa sosoan sa.
35 As Jesus drew near to Jericho, a blind man was sitting beside the road, begging.
Leleꞌ Yesus se rae losa kota Yeriko, hambu atahori pokeꞌ sa endoꞌ hule-huleꞌ sia dalaꞌ suun.
36 When he heard the crowd going by, he asked what was happening.
Leleꞌ ana rena atahori hetar tungga naa ma, ana natane nae, “We! Saa sia ia?”
37 “Jesus of Nazareth is passing by,” they told him.
Boe ma atahori rafadꞌe rae, “Yesus, mia Nasaret, laoꞌ tungga ia.”
38 So he called out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”
Atahori pokeꞌ naa rena nala ma, ana nggasi nahereꞌ nae, “Yesus! Mane Daud tititi-nonosin, e! Sue au dꞌei!”
39 Those who led the way admonished him to be silent, but he cried out all the louder, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
Atahori mana laoꞌ sia Yesus matan ai e rae nee-nee. Te ana boe nggasi nahereꞌ nae, “Mane Daud tititi-nonosin, e! Kasian au dꞌei!”
40 Jesus stopped and directed that the man be brought to Him. When he had been brought near, Jesus asked him,
Leleꞌ Yesus rena taꞌo naa, ma Ana nambariiꞌ. Ma Ana denu atahori reu rala atahori pokeꞌ a. Losa matan ma, Yesus natane e nae,
41 “What do you want Me to do for you?” “Lord,” he said, “let me see again.”
Ho nau Au tao saa fee nggo?” Ana nataa nae, “Amaꞌ! Au oꞌe fo fee au bisa mete ita.”
42 “Receive your sight!” Jesus replied. “Your faith has healed you.”
Yesus nataa e nae, “Maloleꞌ boe. Huu mumuhere mae, Au bisa tao uhaiꞌ nggo, de ia naa ho bisa mita ena.”
43 Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus, glorifying God. And all the people who saw this gave praise to God.
Aibꞌoiꞌ ma, atahori pokeꞌ a nita neuꞌ ena. Boe ma ana tungga Yesus no koa-kio Lamatualain. Basa atahori mana rita taꞌo naa, o koa-kio neu Lamatuaꞌ boe.
