Luke 16
1 He also said to his disciples, "There was a certain rich man who had a manager. An accusation was made to him that this man was wasting his possessions.
A Yeshu gubhaalugulilenje bhaajiganywa bhabho, “Ashinkupagwa tajili jumo na nyapala jwakwe. Tajili jula ashinkulugulilwa, kuti nyapala jwabho anatapanya indu yabho.
2 He called him, and said to him, 'What is this that I hear about you? Give an accounting of your management, for you can no longer be manager.'
Tajili jula gwanshemile, nikummuya, ‘Indu yashi yako ugwe ingupilikanai? Utende malonda ga indu yangu yuposhele na yulile, pabha ukaapinjikwa kubha nyapala kabhili.’
3 "The manager said within himself, 'What will I do, seeing that my lord is taking away the management position from me? I do not have strength to dig. I am ashamed to beg.
Nyapala jula gwaganishiye, ‘Bhakulungwa bhangu bhanaminga liengo lya unyapala, shindende bhuli? Nangali mashili ga lima, pita juga ngunakola oni.
4 I know what I will do, so that when I am removed from management, they may receive me into their houses.'
Elo, nishimanyi sha tenda nkupinga pushimingwe liengopo, bhandunji bhanjemelanje kunngwabhonji.’”
5 Calling each one of his lord's debtors to him, he said to the first, 'How much do you owe to my lord?'
“Bhai, gwabhashemilenje jumo jumo, bhakwetenje magambo bhowe kubhakulungwa bhakwe, gwammushiye jwa ntai jula, ‘Yukulongwa na bhakulungwa ilingwa?’
6 He said, 'A hundred batos of oil.' He said to him, 'Take your bill, and sit down quickly and write fifty.'
Jwalakwe gwajangwile, ‘Nndobho 180 ya mauta ga sheituni.’ Nyapala jula gwannugulile, ‘Tola shipande sha ligambo lyako, shangu ujandishe nndobho makumi tisha.’
7 Then he said to another, 'How much do you owe?' He said, 'A hundred cors of wheat.' He said to him, 'Take your bill, and write eighty.'
Na gwammushiye akwete ligambo jwa bhili, ‘Ugwe ulongwa nndi?’ Jwalakwe gwajangwile, ‘Magunia 1,000 ga ngano.’ Nyapala jula gwannugulile, ‘Tola shipande sha ligambo lyako, shangu ujandishe magunia mia nane.’”
8 "His lord commended the dishonest manager for his shrewdness, for the people of this age are more shrewd in dealing with their own generation than the people of light. (aiōn g165)
Bhai tajili jula gwannumbilile nyapala jula, kwa penya kwakwe. Pabha bhandunji bha pa shilambolyo pano bhanapenyanga pubhatendanga indu na ashaajabhonji, kupunda bhandunji bha Upalume gwa a Nnungu. (aiōn g165)
9 And I say to you, make friends for yourselves by means of unrighteous mammon, so that when it is gone they may welcome you into the everlasting dwellings. (aiōnios g166)
Na bhalabho a Yeshu gubhapundile kubheleketa, “Na nne ngunakummalanjilanga, mpanganje mbwiga na bhandunji kwa mali ga pa shilambolyo, nkupinga gamalaga, mposhelwanje kundamo ja pitipiti. (aiōnios g166)
10 He who is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much. He who is dishonest in a very little is also dishonest in much.
Jojowe shakulupalilwe kwa indu yaishoko, shakulupalilwe nkali kwa indu yaikulungwa, na jojowe akaakulupalika kwa indu yaishoko, akaakulupalika nkali kwa indu yaikulungwa.
11 If therefore you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
Bhai ibhaga, mmanganya nkakulupalikanje kwa mali ga pa shilambolyo, gani shampanganje mali ga kweli?
12 If you have not been faithful in that which is another's, who will give you that which is your own?
Na nkakulupalikanje kwa mali gaka mundu juna, gani shankamuyanje mali genunji mwaashayene?
13 No servant can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. You are not able to serve God and wealth."
“Jwakwapi ntumishi akombola kwaatumishilanga bhakulungwanji bhabhili, pabha shanshime jumo nikumpinga junajo, eu shanng'ishimiye jumo na junajo nikunnyegaya. Nkakombolanga kwaatumishila a Nnungu pamo na mali.”
14 The Pharisees, who were lovers of money, also heard all these things, and they scoffed at him.
Ashimapalishayo bhalinginji bhaapinganga mmbiya, bhakapilikananjeje genego, gubhaeshilenje nkwaanyegaya.
15 He said to them, "You are those who justify yourselves in the sight of people, but God knows your hearts. For that which is exalted among people is an abomination in the sight of God.
A Yeshu gubhaalugulilenje, “Mmanganya nnakwitendanga nkwetenje aki pa bhandu, ikabheje a Nnungu bhajimanyi mitima jenunji, pabha shene shibhoneka sha mmbone kubhandu, a Nnungu pubhakushibhona sha bhiyabhiya.
16 The Law and the Prophets were until John. From that time the Good News of the kingdom of God is preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.
“Shalia na ashinkulondola, yaapali mpaka malanga ga a Yowana Bhabhatisha. Kutandubhila penepo, ngani ja mmbone ja Upalume gwa a Nnungu jinalunguywa, na kila mundu anakwiijinjiya kwa mashili.
17 But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one tiny stroke of a pen in the Law to become void.
Ikabheje ikakola ukomu kunnungu na shilambolyo kupita, kupunda nkali shipande shishoko sha Shalia kushoywa.
18 Everyone who divorces his wife, and marries another, commits adultery. He who marries one who is divorced from a husband commits adultery.
“Jojowe akunneka nkagwe nilomba juna, analabhalabha, na jojowe ankunnomba jwankongwe aleshilwe, analabhalabha.”
19 "Now there was a certain rich man, and he was clothed in purple and fine linen, living in luxury every day.
Ashinkupagwa mundu jumo tajili, awalaga nngubho ya mmbiya yaigwinji ya langi ja shambalau na ya kitani ja takata, alipoka mobha gowe.
20 A certain beggar, named Lazarus, was placed at his gate, full of sores,
Na pannango gwakwe atendaga tama nkulaga jumo, lina lyakwe Lashalo, akwete ilonda shiilu showe.
21 and desiring to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man's table. Yes, even the dogs came and licked his sores.
Lashalo atendaga lokolila malepei gaagwaga pa mesha jika tajili jula, nkali mbwa yatendaga kwiya kunnambanga ilonda yakwe!
22 It happened that the beggar died, and that he was carried away by the angels to Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died, and was buried.
Bhai nkulaga jula akuwaga, ashimalaika bha kunnungu gubhantolilenje, nikwenda kummika pubhaliji a Bhulaimu. Na tajili na jwalakwe gwawile, nishikwa.
23 In hell, he lifted up his eyes, being in torment, and saw Abraham far off, and Lazarus at his bosom. (Hadēs g86)
Tajili jula ali mmboteko ya punda kundamo ja bhawilenje, gwajinwile meyo, gwabhabhweni a Bhulaimu kwataliya bhali nagwe Lashalo, (Hadēs g86)
24 He called out and said, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue. For I am in anguish in this flame.'
Bhai, gwabhashemile kwa utiya, “Ambuje a Bhulaimu, mmonele shiya, muntume Lashalojo kapela shikowe ashubhishe mmashi, andolishiye nnulimi lwangu, pabha ngunapotekwa kwa kaje pamoto pano.”
25 "But Abraham said, 'Son, remember that you, in your lifetime, received your good things, and Lazarus, in like manner, bad things. But now here he is comforted and you are in anguish.
Ikabheje a Bhulaimu gubhajangwile, “Kumbushila mwanangu, kuti ugwe ushinkupoka nndamo jako, na Lashaloju ashinkulaga. Ikabheje nnaino, jwalakwe anapoka na ugwe unapotekwa kwa kaje.
26 Besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, that those who want to pass from here to you are not able, and that none may cross over from there to us.'
Kupunda genego, pakatipakati jetu uwe na mmanganya, lishibhikwa liimbo likulungwa, nkupinga bhapinganga kwiya kunngwenunji kukoposhela akuno bhanakombolanje, na bhapinganga kwiya kwetu uwe kukoposhela kweneko bhanakombolanje.”
27 "He said, 'I ask you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father's house;
Tajili jula gwashite, “Bhai ambuje a Bhulaimu, shonde bhai muntume Lashalo ajende kulikaja lya atati,
28 for I have five brothers, that he may testify to them, so they won't also come into this place of torment.'
pabha njikola ashapwanga nng'ano, akaalungushiyanje nkupinga bhanaikangane kumboteko kuno.”
29 "But Abraham said to him, 'They have Moses and the Prophets. Let them listen to them.'
Ikabheje a Bhulaimu gubhajangwile, “Ashapwako bhakwetenje a Musha na ashinkulondola, bhaapilikalanje bhanganyabho.”
30 "He said, 'No, father Abraham, but if one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.'
Ikabheje na jwalakwe gwashite kabhili, “Nngabha nneyo ambuje a Bhulaimu, ikabhe mundu ayukaga nikwaajendelanga, shibhaipetanje.”
31 "He said to him, 'If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be persuaded if one rises from the dead.'"
Na bhalabho a Bhulaimu gubhajangwile, “Ibhaga bhakaapilikanilanje a Musha na ashinkulondola bha a Nnungu, bhakakundanga nkali mundu akayushile.”
