Luke 12
1 Amongst which things, when the ten thousands of the multitude were gathered together, so that they were treading one upon another, he began to be saying, unto his disciples, first—Be keeping yourselves free from the leaven of the Pharisees, the which is, hypocrisy.
Ie amy zao, naho nivorigidiñe añ’aleale t’indaty vaho nifandialia, le nanoe’ Iesoà ty hoe hey o mpiama’eo: Itaò ty lalivai’ o Fariseoo, amy t’ie hasoa-fiatreke.
2 But, nothing, hath been, covered up, which shall not be uncovered, and hidden, which shall not be made known.
Toe tsy ao ty linomboke ze tsy haboake ndra ty nakafitse ze tsy haborake;
3 Because, as many things as, in the darkness, ye have said, in the light, shall be heard; and, what to the ear ye spake, in the chambers, shall be proclaimed on the housetops.
aa ndra inoñ’ inoñe volañe’ areo añ’ieñe ao, ty ho janjiñeñe an-kazavàñe ey; vaho ze tsikoe’ areo an-dravembia añ’anjomba ao ho tseizeñe an-tampenake ey.
4 And I say unto you, my friends—Do not be put in fear of them who kill the body, and, after these things, have nothing more uncommon which they can do.
Taroñeko ama’areo roàñeko ty hoe, ko marimarihañe ze mahay mamono ty sandriñe, fe tsy mahalefe mandikoatse.
5 But I will suggest to you, whom ye should fear—Fear him who, after killing, hath authority to cast into gehenna, —Yea, I say unto you—Him, fear ye. (Geenna g1067)
Hatahataeko ty hañeveña’ areo: irevendreveño i fa namonoy ro mbe aman-dily hampijoroboñ’ azo an-tsikeokeok’ ao; eka hoe raho, Añeveño! (Geenna g1067)
6 Are not, five sparrows, sold for two farthings? and, not one from among them, hath been forgotten before God.
Tsy drala roe hao ty vili’ ty tsikisoisoy lime? Fa ndra raik’ ama’e tsy andikòfan’ Añahare.
7 But, even the hairs of your head, have all been numbered: Be not afraid: many sparrows, ye excel.
Ndra ty maroi’ ty añambone’areo, fa fonga niaheñe. Aa le ko mahimahiñe, fa mandikoatse ty tsikisoisoy maro nahareo.
8 And I say unto you—Whosoever shall confess me before men, even the Son of Man, will confess him, before the messengers of God;
Itaroñako: Ndra iaia miantok’ ahy añatrefa’ ondatio, ro hiantofa’ i Ana’ondatiy añatrefa’ o anjelin’Añahareo.
9 But, he who denied me before men, shall be denied before the messengers of God.
Fe ze mitety ahy añatrefa’ ondatio, ro hitetiako añatrefa’ o anjelin’Añahareo.
10 And, whosoever shall say a word against the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him; but, unto him who, against the Holy Spirit, speaketh profanely, it shall not be forgiven.
Ndra iaia mitsiko i Ana’ondatiy ro mbe hiheveañe; fe tsy hiheveañe ka ze miteratera i Arofo Masiñey.
11 But, whensoever they shall be bringing you in before the synagogues, and the rulers, and the authorities, do not be anxious how, [or what] ye shall answer, or what ye shall say;
Lehe asese’ iereo am-pitontonañ’ ao nahareo naho amo zizio ndra amo mpifeheo, ko tsòtsek’ ami’ty hatoi’ areo naho amy ze ho saontsie’areo;
12 For, the Holy Spirit, shall teach you, in that very hour, what ye ought to say.
Fa hanare’ i Arofon-kamasiñañey ze ho saontsie’areo amy ora zay.
13 And one from amongst the multitude said unto him—Teacher! bid my brother divide with me the inheritance.
Tamy lahialeñey ty nanao ama’e ty hoe: O Talè, saontsio ty rahalahiko ty hifanjara i lovay amako.
14 But, he, said unto him—Man! who hath appointed me a judge or divider over you?
Tinoi’e ty hoe: O korahe, ia ty nanendre ahy ho mpizaka ndra mpizara ama’areo?
15 And he said unto them—Mind and be guarding yourselves from all covetousness; for not, in one’s abundance, doth his life spring out of his possessions.
Le hoe re tam’ iereo: Mitaoa naho mitomira tsy ho azo’ ty fihañañe, fa tsy miato ami’ty fanaña’e ty havelo’ ondaty.
16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying—A certain rich man’s estate, bare well.
Le hoe ty nirazañe’e: Namokatse soa ty tetem-pañaleale.
17 And he began to deliberate within himself, saying—What shall I do? because I have not where I can gather my fruits.
Le hoe ty safirin-tro’e: Hanao akore raho henaneo, tsy eo ty hanontonako o hanekoo.
18 And he said—This, will I do, —I will pull down my barns, and, greater ones, build, and gather, there, all my wheat and good things;
Aa le hoe ty asa’e: Zao arè ty hanoeko: Ho rotsaheko o rihakoo naho ho tratrañàheko, vaho ho tamirieko ao ze hene haneko naho varako.
19 and will say to my soul—Soul! thou hast many good things [lying by for many years: be taking thy rest, eat, drink, ] be making merry!
Le hatàko ty hoe ty troko: O ry troko, nivandroñe’o vara tsifotofoto an-driha ao, ie tsy ho ritse an-taoñ’ an-taoñe; aa le mitofà, mikamà, migenoha, vaho mifalea.
20 But God said unto him—Simple one! on this very night, they are asking, thy soul, from thee; The things, then, which thou hast prepared, whose shall they be?
Fe hoe ty nitsaran’ Añahare aze: Ty dagola tia! ampañavaheñe azo anito haleñe ty tro’o, aa le ho an’ ia v’o nahaja’oo?’
21 [So, is he that is laying up treasure for himself, and is not rich, towards God.]
Hambañe amy zay ty ho amy ze mitamiry vara ho am-bata’e, f’ie tsy mpañaleale aman’ Añahare.
22 And he said unto his disciples—For this cause, I say unto you, —Be not anxious for the life, what ye shall eat, nor yet for [your] body, what ye shall put on;
Le nanao ty hoe re amo mpiama’eo: Zao ty volako ama’areo: ko tsimboetse ami’ty haveloñe toy, ty ho kamae’ areo; ndra ami’ty sandriñe, ze hisaroña’areo.
23 For, the life, is more, than the food, and, the body, than, the clothing.
Zoke’ ty mahakama ty haveloñe, naho ty saroñe i sandriñey.
24 Consider well the ravens—That they sow nor, neither do they reap, which have neither chamber nor barn, —and, God, feedeth, them! By how much do, ye, excel, the birds?
Haraharao o koàkeo: tsy mitongy, tsy mandrofotse, tsy aman-jahetse, tsy aman-driha, fe fahanan’ Añahare; tsy ambone’ o voroñeo hao ty fiai’areo?
25 And, who from among you, though anxious, can, unto his stature, add a cubit?
Aa vaho ia ama’areo te mahimahiñe ro mahatovoñe ty andro hiveloma’e ndra kede?
26 If then, not even the least thing, ye can do, why, concerning the rest, are ye anxious?
Aa naho tsy mete’ areo i raha kedekedey inoñe ty iveobeoha’ areo o raha ila’eo?
27 Consider well the lilies, how they grow: they toil not, neither do they spin, and yet I say unto you—Not even Solomon, in all his glory, was arrayed like one of these.
Rendreho o voñeo, ty fitiri’e; ie tsy mitoroñe, tsy manenoñe; Eka, itaroñako te, ndra i Solomona amy ze hene enge’e tsy nañirinkiriñe ty fisafora’ ty raik’ ama’e.
28 But, if God thus adorneth, the grass, which is, in a field, to-day, and, to-morrow, into an oven, is cast, how much rather you, O little-of-faith?
Aa naho zay ty ampisikinan’ Añahare o ahetseo, ie amoka añe androany vaho ahifik’ an-toñak’ ao te hamaray, àntsake ty hanafora’e anahareo, ry kede fatokisañe!
29 Ye, therefore, be not seeking what ye shall eat and what ye shall drink, and be not held in suspense;
Ko mitsoeke ty ho kamae’areo ndra hinome’ areo, le ko marimarike.
30 For, after all these things, do, the nations of the world, seek, —but, your Father, knoweth that ye need these things.
Fonga paiae’ o kilakila’ondatio rezay vaho arofoanan-dRae’areo te ipaia’areo ka.
31 Notwithstanding, be seeking his kingdom, —and, these things, shall be added unto you.
Fe hotsohotsò heik’ i Fifehea’ey le hatovoñe ama’areo ze he’e.
32 Be not afraid, the dear little flock! for your Father delighteth to give you, the kingdom.
Ko hembañe, ry mpirai-lia kedeo fa non-dRae’areo ty hanolotse anahareo i Fifeheañey.
33 Sell your possessions, and give alms, make for yourselves purses that wax not old, —treasure unfailing, in the heavens, where, thief, doth not draw near, and, moth, doth not spoil.
Aletaho ty vara’ areo le añomeo o rarakeo. Añentseño horoñe tsy mete voroke naho vara andindìñe ao tsy ho ritse, tsy harivoa’ ty malaso, tsy ho vorohe’ ty oletse.
34 For, where your treasure is, there, will your heart he also.
Fa ami’ty nampipohañe o fanaña’ areoo, le ao ka ty arofo’areo.
35 Let your loins be girded, and your lamps burning,
Midiaña vania, le ampireheto o failo’ areoo,
36 And, ye yourselves, like unto men awaiting their own lord, once he may break up out of the marriage-feast, —that, when he cometh and knocketh, straightway, they may open unto him.
vaho mihambaña am’ ondaty mandiñe ty talè’e himpoly boak’ añ’ engavao añeo: ie pok’ eo naho mitrehentreheñe, le ho sokafe’ iereo ami’ ty manao zao.
37 Happy those servants, whom the lord, when he cometh, shall find watching! Verily, I say unto you—he will gird himself, and make them recline, and, coming near, will minister unto them.
Haha o mpitoroñe ho zoe’ i talè’ iareoy mitao amy fiavi’eio! Eka! to t’itaroñako t’ie hidiañe vaho hampiambesatse iareo hikama, le homb’eo re hitoroñe iareo.
38 And, if, in the second, or if, in the third, watch, he come and find, thus, happy, are, they!
He t’ie avy petsakaleñe ke mielizava, vaho zoe’e manahake zay, le ho haha i mpitoroñe rezay.
39 But, of this, be taking note—Had the householder known, in what hour the thief was coming, he would have watched, and not suffered his house, to be digged through.
Arendreho zao te, ie napota’ ty tompon-traño ty ora ho niloneahe’ o malasoo, tsy ho nado’e ho foieñe i akiba’ey.
40 Ye, therefore, be getting ready, because, in what hour ye are not thinking, The Son of Man cometh!
Aa le mitaoa, fa ami’ty ora mahatondreñe anahareo ty hitotsaha’ i Ana’ondatiy.
41 But Peter said—Lord! unto us, this parable, speakest thou? or, even unto all?
Hoe t’i Petera: O Talè, tsinara’o ama’ay v’i ohatsey, ke amy màroy?
42 And the Lord said—Who then is the faithful steward, the prudent one, whom the lord will appoint over his body of attendants, to be giving, in due season, the measured allowance of wheat?
Le hoe t’i Talè: Ia arè ty mpamandroñe migahiñe naho mahihitse, tinendre’ ty bei’e hifeleke o añ’anjomba’eo hanonkantsonkañe mahakama ami’ty andro’e?
43 Happy, that servant, whom the lord, when he cometh shall find doing, thus!
Haha ty mpitoroñe, t’ie zoe’ i talè’ey mifanehake hoe zay amy fibali’ey.
44 Of a truth, I say unto you—Over all his possessions, will he appoint him.
Eka! to t’itaroñako t’ie horiza’e ho mpamandroñe o vara’e iabio.
45 But, if that servant should say in his heart—My lord delayeth to come! and should begin to be striking the youths and the maidens, —to be eating also, and drinking, and making himself drunk,
Fe naho zao ka ty fitsakorea’ i mpitoroñey, te: Tambatse añe i talèkoy. Ie miorotse mamangovango o mpitoroñeo, ndra lahy ndra ampela naho mitolon-tsorake vaho mitríke ho jike,
46 The lord of that servant, will have come—on a day when he is not expecting, and in an hour when he is not taking note, —and will cut him asunder, and, his part, with the unfaithful, will appoint.
ie pok’ao i talèm-pitoroñey ami’ty andro tsy itama’e naho ami’ty ora tsy apota’e; le ho trabotrabohe’e i mpamandroñey vaho hatrao’e fitobohañe amo tsereheñeo.
47 And, that servant, who had come to know the will of his lord, and neither prepared, nor wrought unto his will, shall be beaten with many stripes;
I mpitoroñe nahafohiñe ty satrin’arofo’ i bei’ey, fe tsy nañalankañe, naho tsy nanao i satri’eiy ro ho kimokimohen-doda.
48 Whereas, he who had not come to know, and did things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. And, every one to whom was given much, much, shall be sought from him; and, he to whom they committed much, for more than common, will they ask him.
Fa ze tsy naharendreke, ndra t’ie nanao ty mañeva fofoke, ro mone ho filopiloreñe. Ze nimeam-bey, bey ka ty ipaiañe; ze nampañajarieñe bey le bey ka ty hampañondrohañe aze.
49 Fire, came I to cast upon the earth, —and what can I wish, if, already, it hath been, kindled?
Ty hametsahako afo an-tane atoy ty nivotrahako, le hàmake t’ie niviàñeñe!
50 But, an immersion, have I, to be immersed with, and how am I distressed, until it be ended!
fe am-piliporañe hiliporako, aa le malovilovy ampara’ t’ie tondroke.
51 Suppose ye, that, peace, I am come to give in the earth? Nay, I tell you, but rather division.
Atao’ areo ho ninday fifampilongoañe amy Taney hao ty fiaviko? Tsie, hoe raho, te mone fifampiriàñe.
52 For there shall be, henceforth, five in one house, divided, —three against two, and two against three:
Henane zao, hifandietse ty lime mpitraok’ anjomba, ho liere’ ty telo ty roe naho ho liere’ ty roe ty telo.
53 There shall be divided—Father against son, and son against father, mother against daughter, and daughter against the mother, —mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law against the mother-in-law.
Hifampiria aman-drae’e ty anadahy naho i anadahiy aman-drae’e; ty rene am’ty anak-ampela’e naho i anak-ampelay aman-drene’e; ty rafozan’ ampela ami’ty vinanto’e ampela, le i vinantoy aman-drafoza’e.
54 And he went on to say, even unto the multitudes, —Whensoever ye see a cloud springing up from the west, straightway, ye are saying—A thunderstorm is coming! and it happeneth thus.
Hoe re amy lahialeñey: Ie tendreke rahoñe mionjoñe boak’ ahandrefañe añe, ro manao ty hoe: Ho avy ty orañe; le toe avy.
55 And, whensoever a south wind, blowing, ye say—A scorching heat, will there be! and it cometh to pass.
Ie mitiok’ atimo, le hoe ty asa’areo: Hatrovoke te anito, le eo zay.
56 Hypocrites! the face of the earth and of the heaven, ye know how to scan; but, this season, how know ye not to scan;
O soamiatrekeo! Mahafitsikarake ty tarehe’ i likerañey naho ty tane toy nahareo; fe manao akore te tsy mahatsikarake ty vinta’ o sa zao?
57 Why, moreover, even from yourselves, judge ye not what is just?
Akore te tsy safirie’areo ty lala-mahity horiheñe.
58 For, as thou art going along with thine adversary unto a ruler, on the way, take pains to get a release from him; lest once he drag thee along unto the judge, and, the judge, deliver thee up to the punisher, —and, the punisher, cast thee into prison:
Ie indreza’o lia i rafelahi’oy mb’ amy ziziy mb’eo, ihe mbe an-dalañey, imaneo filongoañe, tsy mone ho kororohe’e mb’an-jizy mb’eo naho hatolo’ i ziziy amo mpandrohio, vaho hafetsa’ i mpandrohiy am-balabey ao.
59 I tell thee—In nowise shalt thou come out from thence, until, even the last fraction, thou pay!
Ataliliko azo te tsy hiboak’ ao rehe ampara-pandroroña’o ze drala honka’e.
