Luke 18
1 And then He told them a parable, the point being that one needs to always pray and not lose heart,
Yesuusi ba tamaareta azalonna ubba wode woossana mela tamaarssanaw koyidi yaagidi leemiso odis.
2 saying: “There was a judge in a certain town who did not fear God nor regard man.
“Issi kataman Xoossaas yashettonna asaskka yeellatonna issi daynni de7ees
3 But there was a widow in that town, and she kept coming to him, saying, ‘Get justice for me from my adversary.’
He kataman issi am77iya da7awusu. Iyakka, ‘Tawunne ta morkkiyas giddon de7iya mootuwa pirdda’ yaagada ubba wode he daynnaako simerettawusu.
4 And for a while he refused; but afterward he said to himself, ‘Even though I don't fear God nor regard man,
Daynnay guutha wodes I odaa si7onna ixxis, shin guyeppe ba wozanan, ‘Taani Xoossaas yayyonna, asas yeellatonna ixxikokka,
5 yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will defend her, so that her endless coming doesn't wear me out!’”
ha am77iya tana waaysiya gisho iw pirddana; yaatonna ixxiko ubba wode yada tana salethana’ yaagidi qoppis” yaagis.
6 Then the Lord said: “Hear what the unjust judge said.
Godaykka, “Geella daynnay gidayssa si7ideta
7 And will not God get justice for His elect who are crying out to Him day and night, indeed being patient with them?
Xoossay qammanne gallas iyaakko waassiya ba dooridayssatas pirddeneyye? Enttana maaddanaw gam77iyye?
8 I tell you that He will get justice for them quickly. However, when the Son of the Man comes, will He actually find the faith on the earth?”
Ta hinttew odeyssa si7ite, ellesidi pirddana. Gidoshin, Asa Na7ay yaa wode sa7a bolla ammano demmanddeshsha?” yaagis.
9 Then He told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised the rest:
Qassi zaaridi, Yesuusi, banttana xillo asada oothidi ceeqetteyssatasinne harata kadheyssatas hayssada yaagidi leemiso odis.
10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.
“Nam77u asati woossanaw Xoossa Keethi bidosona. Issoy Farisaawe hankkoy qassi qaraxa qanxisiya asi.
11 The Pharisee stood and started praying to himself like this: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like all the rest—robbers, unjust, adulterers—or even like this tax collector.
Farisaawey eqqidi baw woossishe, ‘Xoossaw taani harata mela bonqanchcho, geellanne laymatiya asi, aadhdhida qassi ha qaraxa qanxisiya uraa mela gidonna gisho nena galatays.
12 I fast twice a week; I tithe all that I get.’
Saaminttafe nam77u toho xoomays, ta demmiyaba ubbaafe asiraata kessays’ yaagis.
13 The tax collector, staying a good ways off, did not even venture to look up to heaven, but started beating on his chest, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me a sinner!’
“Shin qaraxa qanxiseyssi qassi haahon eqqidi hari attoshin salo dhoqqu gidi xeellanawukka yayyidi ba tiraa iccishe ‘Xoossaw, tana nagaranchchuwa maararkii’ gidi woossis.
14 I say to you that this one went back home justified rather than that one; because everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
Ta hinttew odeyssa si7ite; Farisaawiyappe hayssi qaraxa qanxiseyssi Xoossaa sinthan xillo gididi ba soo simmis. Ays giikko, bana dhoqqu dhoqqu oothiya asi kawuyana, bana kawushshiya asi dhoqqu dhoqqu gaana” yaagis.
15 Then they even started bringing their babies to Him, that He might touch them; but when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them.
Yesuusi yooga nayta bolla ba kushiya wothidi anjjana mela asay iyaakko ehoosona. Yesuusa tamaareti hessa be7idi ays Yesuusakko eheeti yaagidi kaccidosona.
16 But Jesus summoned them and said: “Allow the little children to come to me, and do not hinder them; because the Kingdom of God is of such.
Shin Yesuusi nayta baakko xeegidi, “Yooga nayti taakko yaanayssa diggofite; yo giite. Ays giikko, Xoossaa kawotethay enttada hanidayssatassa.
17 I tell you assuredly, whoever does not receive the Kingdom of God the way a little child does will by no means enter it.”
Taani hinttew tuma odays; Xoossaa kawotethaa yooga naytatho ekkonnay oonikka yaa gelenna” yaagis.
18 A certain ruler asked Him, saying, “Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
Ayhude halaqatappe issoy, “Keeha asttamaariyaw, merinaa de7uwa demmanaw ay ootho?” yaagidi oychchis. (aiōnios g166)
19 So Jesus said to him: “Why do you call me good? No one is good except one—God.
Yesuusi iyaakko, “Ays tana keehaw yaagada xeegay? Issi Xoossaafe attin hari keehi baawa.
20 You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not give false testimony, honor your father and your mother.’”
Laammofa, wodhoppa, kaysotoppa, worddo markkattofa, ne aawanne ne aayiw bonchcha yaagiya kiitaa eray” yaagidi oychchis.
21 And he said, “All these I have kept from my youth.”
Uraykka, “Hessata ubbaa taani na7atethafe doomada naagashe gam77as” yaagis.
22 Well upon hearing these things Jesus said to him, “You still lack one thing: sell all you have and distribute to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.”
Yesuusi hessa si7ida wode, “Hiza, new issibay paccees; new de7iyaba ubbaa bayzada manqotas imma; salon nena shaloy naagees. Yaata simmada tana kaalla” yaagis.
23 But when he heard this he became very sad, because he was extremely rich.
Shin uray hessa si7ida wode iyaw daro shaloy de7iya gisho daro qiirottis.
24 When Jesus saw that he became sad, He said: “How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter the Kingdom of God!
Yesuusi uraa be7idi, “Dure asas Xoossaa kawotethaa geloy waanidi un77anddeshsha?
25 It is actually easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God!”
Durey Xoossaa kawotethaa gelanayssafe gimaley narppe luhora kantheyssi kawuyees” yaagis.
26 So the hearers said, “Who then can be saved?”
Hessa si7ida asay, “Hessa gidikko ooni attanee?” yaagidosona.
27 And He said, “The things that are impossible with men are possible with God.”
Yesuusi, “Asas dandda7ettonabay Xoossaas dandda7ettees” yaagis.
28 Then Peter said, “Notice that we have left all and followed you!”
Phexiroosi, “Hekko nuuni nubaa ubbaa aggidi nena kaallida” yaagis.
29 So He said to them, “Assuredly I say to you, there is no one who has left house or parents or brothers or wife or children, for the sake of the Kingdom of God,
“Yesuusi tuma ta hinttew odays; Xoossaa kawotethaas gidi ba keethaa woykko ba machchiw woykko ba ishata woykko ba aawanne ba aayiw woykko ba nayta aggiday;
31 Then He took the Twelve aside and said to them: “Take note, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of the Man will be fulfilled:
Yesuusi tammanne nam77ata baakko xeegidi, “Ane Yerusalaame boos, nabeti Asa Na7aabaa xaafidaba ubbay yan polettana.
32 He will be betrayed to the Gentiles, and will be mocked and insulted and spit upon,
I Ayhude gidonna asaas aadhdhidi imettana. Entti iya toochchana, cayananne iya bolla cuttana.
33 and they will scourge and kill Him. And on the third day He will rise again.”
Iya garaafidaappe guye, wodhana, shin heedzantho gallasan I hayqoppe denddana” yaagis.
34 But they understood none of these things; this saying was hidden from them, and they did not know what was being said.
Shin iya tamaareti hessa ubbaafe issibaakka akeekibookkona. Iya xuuray enttaw qosettida gisho I woygidaakko eribookkona.
35 Then it happened, as He approached Jericho, that a certain blind man was sitting alongside the road begging.
Yesuusi Iyaarkko matattiya wode issi qooqe uray oge gaxan uttidi woossees.
36 Hearing a crowd going by, he asked what it was.
Qooqe uray asay he bessaara aadhdhishin si7idi, “I aybe?” gidi oychchis.
37 So they told him that Jesus the Natsorean was passing by.
Entti, “Naazirete Yesuusi hayssara aadhdhees” yaagidosona.
38 Well he shouted, saying, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”
I, “Dawite na7aw, Yesuusa, tana maararkii” yaagidi waassis.
39 Those who led the way started reproving him, to shut him up; but he kept calling out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
Sinthe sinthe biya asati, “Si7i ga” gidi hanqettidosona. Shin I, “Dawite na7aw, tana maara” yaagidi darssi waassis.
40 So Jesus stopped and ordered that he be brought to Him. When he got close He asked him, saying,
Yesuusi eqqidi uraa baakko ehana mela kiittis. Uraykka, iyaakko shiiqin,
41 “What do you want me to do for you?” So he said, “Lord, that I may see again!”
“Ta new ay oothana mela koyay?” yaagidi oychchis. Qooqey, “Godaw ta xeellanaw koyays” yaagis.
42 Then Jesus said to him: “See again! Your faith has made you well.”
Yesuusi, “Xeella, ne ammanoy nena pathis” yaagis.
43 And immediately he did! and he followed Him, glorifying God. And all who witnessed it gave praise to God.
Uray sohuwara xeelli aggis. Xoossaa bonchchishe Yesuusa kaallis. Asa ubbay hessa be7idi Xoossaa galatidosona.
