Luke 12
1 In the meantime so many thousands of people had gathered that they were stepping on each another. Jesus began speaking first to his disciples. “Beware the yeast of the Pharisees—hypocrisy.
ARAMAS toto ap pokon pena lao kidalar, irail lao it pena, i ap kotin tapiada masani ong sapwilim a tounpadak kan: Komail kalaka kalep en Parisär akan, me malaun.
2 For there's nothing hidden that won't be revealed, nothing secret that won't be made known.
Pwe sota me rir kot, me sota pan sansalada. Pil sota me okiok kot, me so pan kalok sili.
3 Whatever you have said in the dark will be heard in the light, and whatever you whispered in private will be announced from the rooftops.
Ari, me komail pan indada ni wasa rotorot, i me pan sansal nan marain. O me komail pan monginingin nan pera kan, i me pan kalok sili pon im akan.
4 I tell you, my friends, don't be afraid of those who kill the body, for once they've done that there's no more they can do.
A I indai ong komail, kompok pai kan, komail der masak irail, me kin kamela pali war, ap solar kak wia meakot.
5 Let me make it clear whom you should be afraid of. You should be afraid of the one who after he has killed has the power to dispose of them in Gehenna. That's the one you should be afraid of. (Geenna g1067)
A I pan kaasa kin komail, me komail en masak: Masak i, me manaman ong kamela aramas ap kak kasela nan pweleko. Melel I indai ong komail, i me komail en masak. (Geenna g1067)
6 Aren't five sparrows sold for two pennies? But God doesn't forget a single one of them.
Siok limen sota kin netila ni denar riau? Ari so, sota amen irail me Kot kin maliela.
7 Even the hairs on your head have been counted. Don't be afraid—you're worth more than many sparrows!
Ari, pil pit en mong omail karos me wadawad penaer. Komail ari der masak, pwe komail me mau sang siok toto.
8 I tell you the truth, those who declare they belong to me, the Son of man will also declare they belong to him before God's angels,
A I indai ong komail, meamen ponasa ia mon aramas, i me Nain aramas pan ponasa ren tounlang en Kot akan.
9 but those who deny me will be denied before God's angels.
A meamen kamam kin ia mon aramas, i me pan kamamaki mon tounlang en Kot akan.
10 Everyone who speaks against the Son of man will be forgiven, but anyone who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.
O meamen me pan lokaia sued duen Nain aramas, a pan kak lapwada. A me lalaue Ngen saraui, a sota pan lapwada.
11 When you're brought to trial before synagogues, rulers, and authorities, don't worry about how to defend yourself, or what you should say.
A ma re pan wa komail la nan ar sinakoke kan mon kapung o ren me manaman akan, komail depa lamelame, da me komail pan sapengki de me komail en inda.
12 The Holy Spirit will teach you at that time what's important to say.”
Pwe Ngen saraui pan kapame kin komail ni klok ota, me komail en inda.
13 Someone in the crowd asked Jesus, “Teacher, please tell my brother to share the inheritance with me.”
A amen toun pokon potoan ong i: Saunpadak, kom kotin masani ong ri ai ol o, en nek pasang at soso.
14 “My friend,” Jesus replied, “Who appointed me as your judge to decide how your inheritance should be divided?” He told the people,
A kotin masani ong i: Aramas o, is me kasapwil ia da, en saunkapungla o saunnene re oma?
15 “Watch out, and beware of all greedy thoughts and actions, for a person's life isn't summed up by all the things they own.”
O kotin masani ong irail: Kalaka norok sued, pwe kaidin kapwa toto, me aramas amen kin memaur kida!
16 Then he told them a story as an illustration. “Once there was a rich man who owned land that was very productive.
A kotin masani ong irail karaseras eu: Ol kapwapwa amen mia, me sap we kaparapar kaualap.
17 The man said to himself, ‘What shall I do? I've nowhere to store my crops.
I ari lamelame indada: Da me i en wiada? Pwe solar wasa en nekinek ia ai kapwa kan.
18 I know what I'll do,’ he decided. ‘I'll pull down my barns and build bigger ones, and then I'll be able to store all my crops and everything I own.
I ari indada: Nan iet me i pan wiada: I pan palang pasang ai im en nak kan, ap kauada me laude sang kai; i wasa me i pan nekidala me wosadang ia o ai dipisou karos;
19 Then I'll tell myself: You have enough to live on for many years, so take life easy: eat, drink, and enjoy yourself!’
A i pan indang ngen i: Ngen i, dipisou toto ong par toto, me nekineki ong uk er. En moleilei, o manga, o nim o perenta!
20 But God said to him, ‘You foolish man! Your life will be demanded back this very night, and then who will get everything you've stored up?’
A Kot ap masani ong i: Pweipwei men koe, pwe pongpong wet ngen om pan ilakido. A is me pan aneki kapwa pukat, me koe nanak penaer?
21 This is what happens to people who hoard up wealth for themselves but are not rich as far as God is concerned.”
Nan iduen me kin roporop pena dipisou ong pein i, ap sota kapwapwa ren Kot.
22 Jesus told his disciples, “That's why I tell you don't worry about life, about what to eat, or about what clothes you should wear.
A a kotin masani ong sapwilim a tounpadak kan: I me I indai ong komail, eder lamelame maur omail, me komail pan tungole, pil iermen pali war, me komail pan likauki!
23 Life is about more than food, and the body is about more than wearing clothes.
Maur me kasampwal sang manga, o war me mau sang likau.
24 Look at the ravens. They don't sow or reap, they don't have any storerooms or barns, but God feeds them. And you're far more valuable than birds!
Kalelapok ong rape kan! Re sota kin kamorok, re pil sota kin nak pena, pil sota arail pera de im en nak, a Kot kin kotin katungole ir. A komail so kasampwal sang manpir kaualap?
25 Can you add an hour to your life by worrying about it?
A is nan pung omail, ni a ngongki, me pan kak use pasang pein i ki tipong en pa eu?
26 If you can't do anything about such small things, why worry about the rest?
Ari, ma komail sota kak ong wiada me mangai, a da me komail kin ngongki okotme?
27 Think of the lilies and how they grow. They don't work, and they don't spin thread for clothes, but I tell you, not even Solomon in all his glory was as beautifully dressed as one of them.
Kalelapok ong kiop akan, me mi nan sap, duen ar kakairida! Re sota kin dodok, o re sota kin monkol pena. A I indai ong komail, pil Salomo ni a lingan karos sota a likau dueta apot irail.
28 So if God clothes the fields with such beautiful flowers, which are here today but gone tomorrow when they are burned in a fire to heat an oven, how much more will God clothe you, you who have so little trust!
Ari, ma iduen Kot kotin kapwataki dip, me mi nan sap ran wet, a lakap pan lokidokila nan stop, iaduen a sota pan madang kalikauwiada komail, me poson tikitik?
29 Don't be concerned about what you're going to eat or drink—don't worry about it.
A komail, ender ngongki, me komail pan manga o nim, o komail der insensued!
30 These are all things that people in the world worry about, but your Father knows you need them.
Pwe mepukat men liki kan kin ngongongki. Pwe Sam omail, me kotikot nanlang, mangi, me mepukat karos mau ong komail.
31 Search for God's kingdom, and you'll be given these things as well.
A rapaki sapwilim a wei, a mepukat pan pousalang komail.
32 Don't be afraid, little flock, for your Father is happy to give you the kingdom.
Der masak pwin tikitik koe, pwe iet kupur en Sam omail: En ki ong komail wei o.
33 Sell what you have, and give the money to the poor. Get yourselves purses that don't wear out: treasure in heaven that will never run out, where no thief can steal it and no moth can destroy it.
Netikila omail kapwa kan, ap kisakisa wei, wiai ong komail ed ko, me sota pan maringala, o pai nanlang, me so pan ola, wasa me lipirap men so kak ong, o man en mot so kak kawela ia.
34 For what you value the most shows who you really are.
Pwe wasa omail pai mi ia, iei wasa mongiong omail pil kin mia,
35 Be dressed and ready, and keep your lamps lit,
Nan luke pamail en katengteng pena o omail ser en isis
36 like servants waiting for their master when he returns from his wedding feast, prepared to open the door quickly for him when he comes and knocks.
O komail en dueta aramas akan, me auiaui ar monsap ni a pan kodo sang kamadip en papaud, pwe i lao kodo letelet, re en madang ritingada mo a.
37 How good it will be for those servants that the master finds watching when he returns. I tell you the truth, he will get dressed, have them sit down for a meal, and will come and serve them himself!
Ladu ko meid pai, me monsap o ni a pan pwarado, diar ar masamasan. Melel I indai ong komail, a pan kaiada a likau o kamod irail edi ong manga, ap pan apapwali irail.
38 Even if he comes at midnight, or just before dawn—how good for them if he finds them watching and ready!
O ma a pwarado ni auer kariau, de kasilu, ap diar ir masamasan, nan meid pai ladu pukat.
39 But remember this: if the master knew when a thief was coming, he would keep watch, and not allow his house be broken into.
A komail en asa, ma kaun pan im o asaer ansaun lolap o pan pwarado, a pan masamasan o so pan mueid ong, im a en kulia sang.
40 You must also be ready, for the Son of man is coming when you don't expect him.”
Komail ari pil ononop, pwe Nain aramas pan pwarado niansau me komail sasa.
41 “Is this story you're telling just for us, or for everyone?” Peter asked.
Petrus ap potoan ong i: Maing, re kotin masani dong kit karaseras wet, de ong irail karos?
42 The Lord replied, “Who then is the trustworthy and wise manager, the one person in the household that the master puts in charge to share out their food at the right time?
A Kaun o kotin masani: Ari is saunkoa lelapok o lolekong, me a monsap kasapwilada, en kaunda a ladu kan, pwen nek ong irail kan ar manga ni ansau me kon on?
43 It will be good for that servant when his master returns and finds him doing what he should.
Meid pai ladu o, me a monsap pan diarada wiawia duen met ni a pan pwarado!
44 I tell you the truth, the master will put that servant in charge of everything.
Melel I indai ong komail, a pan kasapwiladang i pon a dipisou karos.
45 But what if the servant were to say to himself, ‘My master is taking a long time in coming,’ and then starts beating the other servants, both men and women, feasting and getting drunk?
A ma ladu o pan lamelame nan mongiong i: Ai monsap pwapwand, o a pan tapiada kame ladu o lidu kan, o manga o nim, o kamom sakau,
46 That servant's master will return unexpectedly one day at a time he wasn't aware of, and will punish him severely, treating him as totally untrustworthy.
Monsap en ladu o ap pan pwara do ni ran o, me a so auiaui i, o ni auer, me a sasa, o a pan lepuk pasang i, o kasapokalang nan pung en me soposon akan.
47 That servant who knew what his master wanted and yet didn't get ready or follow his instructions, will be beaten severely;
A ladu o, me asa kupur en a monsap, a sota kaonopada pein i, pil sota wiada kupur a, nan i me pan kamekam kaualap.
48 but the servant who didn't know and did things deserving punishment will be beaten only lightly. From those who are given much, much will be required, and from those who are entrusted with more, more will be demanded.
A me sasa, ap wiadar me mau ong kalokolok, nan i me pan kalokolok tikitik. Pwe me aleer me toto, i me pan kida me toto; o me koaki me toto, pan purokido me toto.
49 I have come to set the earth on fire, and I really wish it was already burning!
I kodon saundi kisiniai sappa, a da me I en wiada, ma a saundier?
50 But I have a baptism to go through, and I'm in agony, wishing it was over!
A mas I pan paptaise kila paptais eu; I ap patau kila melel, a lao daulier.
51 Do you think that I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, I bring division.
Komail lamelame, me I kodon ki ong sappa popol? I indai ong komail: So! A pwen kumuei suedala.
52 From now on, if there are five in a family, they will be divided against each other: three against two, and two against three.
Pwe sang met kokola limen toun im eu pan liak toror pasang; silimen pan palian riamen, o riamen pan palian silimen.
53 They will be divided against each other—father against son, son against father, mother against daughter, daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.”
Sam pan palian na putak, a putak o pan palian sam a; in pan palian na seripein, a seripein pan palian in a; a li amen pan palian na ol a paud, o en na ol a paud pan palian li o.
54 Then Jesus spoke to the crowds. “When you see a cloud rising in the west, you immediately say, ‘a rain-shower's coming,’ and it happens.
A kotin masani ong pokon o: Komail lao udial dapok sang kapin lang, komail kin inda: A pan katau; o a pan pwaida
55 When a south wind blows, you say ‘it's going to be hot,’ and it is.
O ma komail kin kilang ang a usang ni pali air, komail kin inda: A pan karakar; o a pan wiaui.
56 You hypocrites, how is it that you know how to rightly interpret the weather but you don't know how to interpret the present time?
Malaun komail! Komail asa kasaui mas en sappa o lang, a da me komail sasaki kasauida ansau wet?
57 Why don't you think for yourselves and judge what's the right thing to do?
A da me pein komail sota kasauia kida me pung?
58 As you go with your accuser to the magistrate, on the way you should be working on a settlement. Otherwise you may be dragged before the judge, and the judge hand you over to the officer, and the officer throw you into prison.
A ma koe pan iang me palian uk kolang kapung o, en nantiong pon al o, en kapungala re a, pwe a de pang uk alang saunkapung, a saunkapung pang uk ala ren silepan imateng, a silepan imateng pan kase uk ala nan imateng.
59 I tell you, you won't get out until you've paid the last penny.”
I indai ong uk: Koe sota pan koda sang wasa o, koe lao kapungala lua karos.
