Luke 7
1 When he'd finished speaking to the people, Jesus left for Capernaum.
A LAO kotin erela a masan akan karos ong pokon o, a ap kotilang Kapernaum.
2 A centurion lived there who had a servant he greatly valued who was sick and was about to die.
Ladun senturion amen mia, me kasampwal re a, me somau, a pan mela.
3 When he heard about Jesus, the centurion sent some Jewish elders to him, asking him to come and heal his servant.
A lao rongada duen Iesus, ap poronelang i saumas en Sus akan, poeki re a, en kotido kakelailada a ladu.
4 When the elders came to Jesus, they pleaded with him strongly, saying, “Please come and do what he asks. He deserves your help,
Irail lao pwara dong Iesus, ap ngidingideki i potoan ong: A war ong, ren kotin wiai ong i mepukat.
5 because he loves our people and he built a synagogue for us.”
Pwe a kin pok ong toun sap atail o kauadang kit sinakoke o.
6 Jesus went with them and as they approached the house, the centurion sent some friends to Jesus to tell him, “Lord, please don't trouble yourself by coming into my house, because I'm not worthy of that.
Iesus ap kotin iang ir ala. A ni solar non doo sang im o, senturion ap poronelang i kompok kai, potoan ong: Maing re der kangere ir kotido, pwe i sowar, ren ketlong ong nan im ai.
7 I didn't even think that I was worthy to come and see you. Just give the command, and my servant will be healed.
Ngai ari sota kin aka, me i war ong poto dong ir. A re kotin masaniata; a ai ladu pan kelailada.
8 For I'm under the authority of my superior officers, and I have soldiers under my authority too. I command one to go and he goes, another to come and he comes. I command my servant to do something and he does it.”
Pwe ngai pil aramas amen, me mi pan manaman akan, ap kaunda saunpei kai. A ma i pan, indang amen: Kowei! A pan kola; o ong amen: Kodo! A pan kodo; o ong ai ladu: Wiada met! A pan wiada.
9 When Jesus heard this he was astounded. He turned to the crowd that was following him, and said, “I tell you, I haven't found trust like this even in Israel.”
Iesus lao mangi mepukat, ap kotin puriamui kila, saupei dong pokon o, me idauendo i, masani: I indai ong komail, me I saik diar poson lapalap duen met, sota ren men Israel.
10 Then the centurion's friends returned to the house and found the servant in good health.
A me pakadarala kan lao purelong ong nan im o, re ap diarada, me ladu o kelailada.
11 Soon after Jesus went to a town called Nain, accompanied by his disciples and a large crowd.
Kadekadeo murin mepukat a kotilang kanim eu ad a Nain; sapwilim a tounpadak kan toto iang i; o aramas pil me toto.
12 As he approached the town gate a funeral procession was coming the other way. The man who had died was the only son of a widow, and a sizeable crowd from the town was with her.
A lao koren iong wanim en kanim o, kilang, melar amen, me re wawei, ieros en in a, a iei li odi amen; a toun kanim me toto iang i.
13 When the Lord saw her he was filled with compassion for her. “Don't cry,” he told her.
Kaun o lao masani i, ap kotin kupurela, masani ong i: Eder sangesang.
14 Jesus went over to the coffin and touched it, and the pall-bearers stopped. Jesus said, “Young man, I tell you, get up.”
I ari koti ong, doke kopa o, a me roa kan ap udi. I ap kotin masani: Manakap, I indai ong uk, paurida!
15 The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother.
A me melar o ap modada, pikekidi lokaia. Iesus ap kotiki ong i ren in a,
16 A sense of awe filled everyone there and they praised God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us,” and “God has visited his people.”
Masak ap kipa ir edi, o kapikapinga Kot indada: Nan saukop lapalap amen, me pwarado re atail, o Kot me kotier ren sapwilim a aramas akan.
17 News about Jesus spread throughout Judea, and all around.
A kasoi pot et duen i lolok sili nan Iudäa o sap karos, me mi imp a.
18 The disciples of John told John about all this.
En Ioanes a tounpadak kan kaire kin i mepukat karos.
19 John called two of his disciples and told them to go and see Jesus, and ask, “Are you the one we've been expecting, or should we wait for someone else?”
Ioanes ap molipeido sapwilim a tounpadak kan riamen, porone ira lang Iesus, masanlang i: Ir me pan kotido, de sen auiaui amen?
20 When they came to Jesus, they said, “John the Baptist sent us to you, to ask you, ‘Are you the one we've been expecting or should we wait for someone else?’”
Ol oko lao poto dong i, ap potoan ong: Ioanes saunpaptais kadar kit dong ir potoan kalelapok: Ir me pan kotido, de sen auiaui amen?
21 At that very moment Jesus was healing many people of their diseases, illnesses, evil spirits, and making the blind to see.
A ni auer ota a kotin kakelada me toto sang ar somau, o luet, o ngen sued akan, o kotin kapad pasang mas en me maskun toto.
22 Jesus answered John's disciples, “Go and tell John what you've seen and heard. The blind see, the lame walk, the lepers cured, the deaf hear, the dead raised back to life, the poor are told the good news.
Iesus ap kotin sapeng masani ong irail: Koma u kowei, kaireki Ioanes, meakan komail kilanger o ronger: Me maskun akan kilangada wasa, o me luet akan kin alialu, o me tuketuk kan makelekeleda, o me salongepon kin rong wasa, o me melar akan kin maureda, o rongamau me lolok ong me samama kan.
23 How good it is for those who are not offended because of me!”
O meid pai, me sota pan makar kin ia!
24 After the messengers from John had left, Jesus began telling the crowd, “About John: what did you expect to see when you went out to meet him in the desert? Some reed blown about by the wind?
A men kadar en Ioanes lao purela, Iesus ap kotin tapiada masani ong pokon o duen Ioanes: Da me komail koieila en kilang nan sap tan? Komail men kilang alek pot, me kin dueduälokki ang?
25 Did you come looking for a man dressed in fine clothes? No, those who have stylish clothes and live in luxury are found in palaces.
De da me komail koieila en kilang? Komail men kilang aramas amen, me likau kida likau muterok? Kilang, me kin likau kida likau lingan, o kaped en manga, kin mi nan im en nanmarki kan.
26 Were you looking for a prophet? Yes he is, and I'm telling you, he's much more than a prophet.
De da me komail koieila en kilang? Saukop amen? Ei, I indai ong komail, a laude sang saukop amen.
27 It was written about him in Scripture: ‘Look, I'm sending my messenger to go before you to prepare your way.’
Pwe iei i me intingidier due: Kilang, I kadarala mo mui nai men kadar amen, me pan koki al mo’mui.
28 I tell you, no one born of women is greater than John, but even the most unimportant person in God's kingdom is greater than he is!”
Pwe I indai ong komail, sota saukop amen me ipwi sang ren li akan, me laude sang Ioanes saunpaptais, ari so, me tikitik nan wein Kot, iei me laude sang i.
29 When they heard this, all of them—even the tax collectors—followed what God said was good and right, for they had been baptized by John.
A aramas karos, me rongerong i, o saunopwei kan kapinga Kot ni ar iang paptaiseki paptais en Ioanes.
30 But the Pharisees and the religious teachers rejected what God wanted them to do, for they had refused to be baptized by John.
A Parisär o saunkawewe kan sapai ong pein irail ni ar mamaleki kupur en Kot, ap sota iang paptais re a.
31 “What shall I compare these people to?” asked Jesus. “What are they like?
A da me I en karasai ong aramas en di wet? O da me irail rasong?
32 They're like children sitting in the market who tell one other, ‘We played the flute for you but you didn't dance; we sang sad songs but you didn't cry.’
Irail me rasong seri kai, me kin momod nan wasan net akan o likelikwir nan pung arail indinda: Kit kasakasang, a komail sota kakalek; kit kamamauke kin komail, a komail sota sangesang.
33 When John the Baptist came he didn't eat bread or drink wine, but you say he's demon-possessed.
Pwe Ioanes saunpaptais pwarado, ap sota kang prot, o sota nim wain, a komail kin inda: Nan tewil kin di poa.
34 Now the Son of man is here, and eats and drinks with people, but you say, ‘Look, he spends his time eating too much food and drinking too much wine. Plus he's a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’
Nain aramas pwarado, manga o nim, a komail kin inda: Kilang, me kaped en manga o kamom sakau, kompoke pan saunopwei o me dipan akan!
35 However, God's wise ways are proved right by all who follow him!”
A lolekong kin diarok kida na seri kan karos.
36 One of the Pharisees invited Jesus to come and eat with him. Jesus went to the Pharisee's house and sat down to the meal.
A Parisär amen poeki i, en konot re a. I ari kotilong ong nan im en Parisär o kaipokedi ni tepel.
37 A woman who was a sinner in that town found out that Jesus was eating in the Pharisee's house. She went there, carrying an alabaster jar of perfume.
A kilang, li amen mi nan kanim o, me dipan amen, a lao asa, me Iesus kotikot konot nan im en Parisär o, ap wado kokon en alapasta,
38 She kneeled beside Jesus and with her tears wet his feet, and dried them with her hair. She kissed his feet, and then she poured the perfume over them.
O poridi mur i ni aluwilu a sangesang o pikekidi widenki pil en mas a aluwilu a, o limwieki a pwilipeipei, o metik aluwilu a kan o keieki alapasta.
39 When the Pharisee who had invited Jesus saw this he said to himself, “If this man was really a prophet he would know who this woman was who's touching him, and what kind of person she was—that she's a sinner!”
A Parisär o, me lukedo i lao kilanger, ap mongemongeloleki indada: Ma ol men et saukop amen, a pan asa, is li o, me sair i, pwe me dipan amen.
40 Jesus spoke up and said, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” “Tell me, Teacher,” he responded.
Iesus ap kotin sapeng masani ong i: Simon, I men indai ong uk meakot. I ari indada: Saunpadak, masania do!
41 “Once two people were in debt to a money-lender. One owed five hundred denarii, the other only fifty.
Ol amen mia, me aramas riamen pwaipwand ong. Amen ira pwaipwandeki denar limepuki, a amen limeisok,
42 Neither of them could repay him, so he forgave the debts. Which one will love him the most?”
A ni ara sota men kapungala, a kisakisa kin ira la karos. Indang ia, is re’ra, me pan pok ong i laud?
43 “The one he forgave the most, I would think,” Simon answered. “You're absolutely right,” said Jesus.
Simon sapeng potoan ong: I lamelame i, me a kisakis laud ong. A kotin masani ong i: Koe meid pung kasauiada.
44 Turning to the woman, he said to Simon, “You see this woman? When I came into your house, you didn't give me water to wash my feet. But she has washed my feet with her tears, and wiped them with her hair.
I ari saupei dong li o masani ong Simon: Koe kilang li men et, I pedelong ong nan im om, a koe sota ki ong ia pil men widen nä i kat, a i me widenki pil en mas a nä i kat, o limwieki a pwilipeipei.
45 You didn't give me a kiss, but since I came in she hasn't stopped kissing my feet.
Koe sota metik ia, a i sota tukedi sang metik nä i kat, sang ni a pedelong lao lel met.
46 You didn't anoint my head with oil, but she poured perfume over my feet.
Koe sota usore kin ia le, a met keiekier nä i kat alapasta.
47 So I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven—that's why she loves so much. But whoever is forgiven little, only loves a little.”
Nan i me I indaki ong uk: Dip a kan me toto me lapwadar, pwe a kin limpok laud; a me dip a sota non lapwada, nan a kin limpok tikitik.
48 Then Jesus said to the woman, “Your sins have been forgiven.”
I ari masani ong li o: Dip om akan me lapwadar.
49 Those who were sitting eating with him began talking among themselves, saying, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”
A me iang mod ni tepel o ap tapiada inda nang pung ar: Is men et, me pil kin lapwada dip akan?
50 But Jesus told the woman, “Your trust has saved you, go in peace.”
I ap kotin masani ong li o: Om poson me dore uk ala, kowei popol!
