Luke 16
1 Then He said further to His disciples: “There was a certain rich man who had a manager, who was accused to him of wasting his goods.
Yesu nabhabhwila lindi abheigisibhwa bhaye ati, “Aliga alio omunu umwi mutagiri ali nomunu emelegululiye emilimu jaye, nibhamubhwila ati omukosi wao unu kalasa-lasa imali yao.
2 So he called him in and said to him: ‘What is this I hear about you? Render an account of your stewardship, because you can no longer be manager.’
Kulwejo tagiri namubhilikila, namubhwila ati, “Nimisangoki jinu enungwa ingulu yao? Nuumbalile obhukumi bhwe emilimu jao, kulwokubha utachasubha kwimelegululila emilimu lindi.”
3 Then the manager said within himself: ‘What shall I do? My master is taking the management away from me. I do not have strength to dig; I am ashamed to beg
Omukosi we emilimu neyaikila mumwoyo gwaye, 'lata bhugenyi wani kansoshako kumilimu jokwimelegulila emilimu, nikole kutiki? Nitali namanaga gokulima, nokusabhilisha eniswala.
4 —I know what I will do, so that whenever I am removed from the management they may receive me into their houses.’
Mbe enimenya gunu nilakola koleleki labha nikasosibhwako kumilimu abhanu bhankumililega mumisi jebhwe.'
5 Summoning each one of his master's debtors, he said to the first, ‘How much do you owe my master?’
Kulwejo omukosi wemilimu nabhilikila bhanu bhaliga nibhatongwa na lata bhugenyi waye. Nabhwila owokwamba ati, 'omukulu wani kakutonga bhilinga?
6 And he said, ‘A hundred baths of olive oil.’ So he said to him, ‘Take your bill and sit down quickly and write fifty.’
Nasubhya ati, 'ndengo egana eja amafuta' namubhwila ati, 'nugege olwandiko lwao wiyanje bhwangu wandike makumi gatanu.'
7 Then he said to another, ‘And how much do you owe?’ And he said, ‘A hundred measures of wheat.’ So he said to him, ‘Take your bill and write eighty.’
Neya nabhwila oundi, 'kawe outongwa elinga?' naika ati, 'bhilengo egana ebhya jishano ja ingano.' Namubhwila ati, 'gega olwandiko lwao wandike makumi munana.'
8 The master even ‘commended’ the dishonest manager, because he had acted shrewdly. The sons of this age are shrewder in their own generation than the sons of the Light. (aiōn g165)
Omumula uliya omunibhi namukuya omukosi wobhuyaga lwakutyo akolele kwo obhwenge. Kulwokubha abhana bhe echalo bhana obhwenge bhwafu na abhakola emilimu kwo bhwenge na abhanu bhanu bhali kulubhala lwebhwe kukila kutyo bhali abhana bho obhwelu. (aiōn g165)
9 “I even say to you, make friends for yourselves by means of unrighteous mammon, so that whenever you fail, they may receive you into the eternal dwellings! (aiōnios g166)
Mbe enibhabhwila mwikolele abhasani okusoka mubhinu bhyo obhunyamuke koleleki ebhinu bhikawao bhabhakumilile mubhwikalo bhunu bhutakuwao. (aiōnios g166)
10 He who is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much, and he who is dishonest in a very little is dishonest also in much.
Owakisi mwibhika kuchinu chitoto muno kabhaga wekisi okubhika nolwo chinu chinene. Na unu kasakula echitoto nolwo echinene ona kasakula.
11 If therefore you have not been faithful with the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the genuine?
Labha emwe mutabheye bhakisi kubhinu bhyo obhunyamuke niga unu alibhayana okubhika ebhinu bhye echimali?
12 And if you have not been faithful in what belongs to another, who will give you what is your own?
Ka labha mutabheye bhakisi kubhinu bhyo undi niga unu alibhayana imali yemwe abhene?
13 No servant can serve two masters; either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon!”
Atalio omunu unu katula okukolela bhese Bhugenyi bhabhili, kulwokubha kafururukwa no oumwi na nenda oundi, lugendo kagwatana na unu nokugaya oundi. Mutakutula okukolela Nyamuanga ne ebhinu.
14 Now the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, were also listening to all these things, and they were ridiculing Him.
Mbe Abhafarisayo bhanu bhaliga nibhenda jimpilya, nibhongwa ejo jona na nibhamujimya.
15 So He said to them: “You are those who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. That which is exalted among men is an abomination before God.
Yesu nabhabhwila ati, “Emwe nemwe omwigegela obhulengelesi imbele ya abhanu, nawe Nyamuanga kamenya emyoyo jemwe. Kulwokubha linu limenyekene kubhanu elibhaga efururusho ku Nyamuanga.
16 The Law and the Prophets were until John; since then the Kingdom of God is being proclaimed, and every one is trying to force his way into it.
Mbe ebhilagilo na abhalagi bhyaliga bhilio okukingila Yoana naja. Okwambila akatungu ako, Omusango ogwo bhwana ogwo obhukama bhwa Nyamuanga ogulasibhwa, na bhuli munu kalegeja okwiingisha kwa amanaga.
17 But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one tittle of the Law to fail.
Jolobhele olwire na insi okuwao nawe inyuguta imwi eye echilagilo okubhulao.
18 “Whoever divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and whoever marries her who is divorced from her husband commits adultery.
Bhuli munu unu kasigana no mugasi waye natwala oundi kalomela, naunu katwala omugasi unu asigilwe no mulume waye kalomela.
19 “Now there was a certain rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen, living in luxury every day.
Mbe aliga alio omunu umwi alimunibhi nafwalaga jingubho ja irangi ya amajambarau ejobhugusi bhunene, bhuli siku nakondelesibhwa no obhwafu bhwo ubhutagiri bhwaye.
20 And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores, who had been placed at his gate,
Alio no omunu umwi lisinanlyaye Lazaro, alimutaka ne ebhilondo, neyanjaga kumulyango gwo omunibhi oyo.
21 just wanting to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man's table—why even the dogs would come and lick his sores!
Lazaro esigomberaga okwiguta ganu galagalaga okusoka kumeja yo omunibhi jimbwa nijija okumulamba ebhilonda bhaye.
22 In due time the beggar died and was carried away to Abraham's bosom by the angels. “The rich man also died and was buried.
Mbe ejile omutaka afwa nagegwa na bhamalaika nibhamukingya muchifubha cha Ibraimu. Omunibhi uliya ona nafwa nasikwa.
23 And in Hades he looked up and saw Abraham at a distance, and Lazarus very close to him. And being in torment, (Hadēs g86)
Munyombe ao aliga alimunyako, nalalamila nalola Ibraimu alikula na Lazaro alimuchifubha chaye. (Hadēs g86)
24 he called out, saying, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; because I am tormented by this flame!’
Nalola naika ati, 'Lata Ibraimu, nuumfwile chigongo utume Lazaro enike insonde yechala chaye mumanji anyilishe olulimi lwwni; kulwokubha eninyasibhwa mumulilo gunu.
25 But Abraham said: ‘Child, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus had bad things; but now he is being comforted, and you tormented.
Nawe Ibraimu naika ati, 'Mwana wani ichuka lwa kutyo mubhulame bhwao walamiye agekisi, ka Lazaro nabhona amabhibhi. Nawe olyanu alyanu kafung'amibhwa kawe ounyasibhwa.
26 And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can anyone from there cross over to us.’
Ingulu ya jona, liteweo elyobho enene na elela agati yeswe, koleleki bhanu abhenda okusoka enu okuja kwimwe bhasige okutula, nolwo abhanu bhe ewemwe bhatajokwambuka okuja kwiswe.'
27 Then he said, ‘I beg you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father's house,
Omunibhi oyo naika ati, 'Enikusabhwa lata Ibraimu, utume Lazaro ika owasu kulata.
28 because I have five brothers, so that he may testify to them, lest they also come to this place of torment.’
Kulwokubha nina bhamula bhasu bhatanu koleleki abhakishe, enubhaya abhene ona bhasiga kukinga munyako anu nili.'
29 Abraham said to him, ‘They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.’
Nawe Ibraimu naika ati, 'bhali na Musa na abhalagi. Bhasigela bhabhategeleshe abho.
30 So he said to him, ‘Oh no, father Abraham—if someone from the dead should go to them, they will repent!’
Omunibhi naika ati, 'Pai, Lata Ibraimu, omunu akasoka mubhafuye nabhakingako abhata ebhibhi.'
31 He said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets, they will not be persuaded even if someone should rise from the dead.’”
Nawe Ibraimu namubhwila ati, 'bhakabhula okungwa Musa na abhalagi bhatakutula okungwa nolwo omunu akasoka mubhafuye.'”
