Luke 10
1 After that, the Lord Jesus appointed 72 other [people]. He [prepared to] send them out, two-by-two, to every town and village where he [SYN] intended to go.
MURIN mepukat Kaun o pil kotin piladar isiakan o porone irail wei mo a ni wad riamen, en kakan sili nan kanim laud o tikitik kan, wasa me a pein pan kotilang ia.
2 He said to them, “The [people who are ready to receive my message] are like a field [of] [MET] [grain] that is ready for [people] to harvest {to be harvested}. But there are not many people [to bring them to God]. So pray and ask the Lord [God] to send [more] workers [who will gather people together and teach them my message, just like a landowner sends workers] into his fields [to gather the] harvest.
A kotin masani ong irail: Rak me kalaimun, a toun dodok me malaulau; poeki ren Kaun en rak, en kadarala toun dodok nan a rak.
3 Start going; but [remember that] I am sending you [(pl)] out [to tell my message to people who will try to get rid of you. You will be] like lambs among wolves.
Komail kola; kilang, I kadar komail la dueta sippul akan nan pung en kidi en wei akan.
4 Do not take along [any money in] a purse. Do not take a traveler’s bag. Do not take [extra] sandals. Do not [spend a lot of time] greeting people along the way.
Komail der wewa ed en moni, de ed en sailok, de sut, o der ranamau ong meamen nani al o.
5 Whenever you enter a house [to lodge there], first say to those people, ‘May [God give inner] peace to [you people] [MTY] [in] this house!’
A ma komail pan pedelong ong nan im eu, komail pan inda mas: Popol en mimi nan im wet!
6 If people who [live] there [are (desiring to have]/worthy of receiving) [God’s] peace, they will experience the [inner] peace that you are [offering them]. If people who [live] there [are not desiring to have God’s] peace, you [will experience God’s inner] peace, [but they will not].
A ma popol amen mi wasa o, omail popol pan mimieta re a, a ma so, omail popol pan pure dong komail.
7 [If they welcome you], stay in that same house [until you leave that village]. Do not move around from one house to another. Eat and drink whatever they provide for you. A worker deserves to get pay [MET] [from the people for whom he works, so you deserve to receive food and a place to stay from the people to whom you go].
A komail pan mimieta nan im ota, o manga o nim, me mi re’rail pwe toun dodok me warong pwain a. Komail der pedoi sang nan eu im ap kolong ong nan eu.
8 Whenever you enter a town and the people [there] welcome you, eat what is provided {what [they] provide} for you.
A ma komail pan pedelong nan eu kanim, o re pan kasamo komail, i wasa komail pan tungole, me pan wisike dong komail.
9 Heal the people there who are sick. Tell them, ‘It is almost [time for] God to send his king to rule [MET] [your lives].’
O kakelada me somau kan, me mi wasa o, o kaire kin irail: Wein Kot koren dong komail.
10 But if you enter a town whose [people] do not welcome you, go into its [main] streets and say,
A ma komail pan pedelong nan eu kanim, o re sota pan kasamo komail, i wasa komail pan pedoi nani al indada:
11 ‘[Because you have refused to hear our message, we(exc) will not only leave], we will also shake off the dust of your town that clings to our sandals, to warn you [that God will reject/punish you]. But [we want you to know that] it is almost [the time when] God will start to rule!’
Pil pwel par, me ko dong kit nan omail kanim, sipede dong komail; ari so, komail en asa, me wein Kot koren dong komail.
12 I will tell you this: On the [MTY] [final] day when [God judges everyone], he will punish the wicked people [MTY] who long ago lived in Sodom, [the city that he destroyed because its people were so wicked]. But he will punish [even] more severely the people [MTY] of any town [whose people refused to hear your message]!”
I indai ong komail, nan a pan mangai ong Sodom ni ran o sang kanim o.
13 “There will be terrible [punishment] for [you people who live in] [MTY] Chorazin and Bethsaida [cities]. I did great miracles in your cities [to show God’s power, but you did not turn from your sinful behavior]. If the miracles that I performed in your [cities] had been done in Tyre and Sidon [cities], the wicked people who lived there would have long ago [shown that they were sorry for their sins by] sitting on the ground wearing coarse cloth and putting ashes on their heads.
Suedi ong uk Korasim! Suedi ong Petsaida! Pwe ma manaman akan, me wiaui ong uk er, wiaui ong Tirus o Sidon, nan melel, re pan kalula nan tuk en likau o nan pas.
14 [But they did not have the opportunity that you have, so when God punishes people, he will punish the wicked people who lived in] Tyre and Sidon, but he will punish you more severely [because you did not pay attention to my message].
A a pan mangai ong Tirus o Sidon ni kadeik o sang komail.
15 [I also have something to say to] you [people who live in] Capernaum [city]. (Do not [think that you will be honored] {[that God] will honor you} in heaven!/Do you [think that you will be honored] {[that God] will honor you} in heaven?) [RHQ] [That will not happen! On the contrary], [after you die, God] will send you down to the place where [sinful people] will be punished [forever]!” (Hadēs g86)
A koe Kapernaum, me paidar nanlang, pan pisikondi ong nan pweleko. (Hadēs g86)
16 [Jesus also said to the disciples, “God will consider that] those who listen to your [message] are listening to me, and that those who reject your [message] are rejecting me. And [he will consider that] those who reject me are rejecting [God], the one who sent me.”
Me rongerong komail, nan a kin rongerong ia; o me mamaleki komail, nan a kin mamaleki ia. O me mamaleki, ia, nan a kin mamaleki, me kadar ia do.
17 The 72 [people whom Jesus appointed went and did as he told them to]. When they returned, they were very joyful. They said, “Lord, [people did what we(exc) told them to do]! Demons also obeyed us when by your [(sg)] authority [MTY] [we commanded them to leave people]!”
Me isiakan ap puredo, pereperen potoan ong: Maing, pil tewil akan udi ong kit ni mar omui.
18 Jesus replied, “[When those demons were obeying you, because God had enabled you to defeat them, it was as though] [MET] I saw Satan fall from heaven [as suddenly and quickly] as lightning [strikes].
A kotin masani ong irail: I kilanger Satan likamata liol a pupedi sang nanlang.
19 Listen! I have given you authority so that if you oppose evil spirits [MET] [they will not hurt you]. I have given you authority to defeat our enemy, [Satan]. Nothing shall hurt you.
Kilang, I ki ong komail manaman, en tiakedi serpent o skorpion, o en poedi kel en imwintiti karos. O sota meakot pan kasuedi ong komail,
20 But [although] you can rejoice that evil spirits obey you, you should rejoice [more] that your names have been written {that [God] has written your names} in heaven, [because you will be with God forever].”
Ari so, komail der peren kida, me ngen akan kin udi ong komail, a komail peren kida me ad omail intingidier nanlang.
21 At that time the Holy Spirit caused [Jesus] to be very happy. He said, “Father, you [(sg)] rule over [everything in] heaven and [on] the earth! Some [people think that they are] wise [because] they are well-educated. But I thank you that you have prevented them from [knowing] these things. [Instead], you have revealed them to [people who accept your truth as readily] [MET] [as] little children [do]. Yes, Father, [you have done that] because it seemed good to you [to do] so.”
Ni auer ota Iesus kotin perenda ni ngen e masani: I kapinga komui, Sam ai, kaun pan lang o sappa, me komui okila mepukat sang me lolekong o koiok kan, ap kasale ong seri pwelel akan! Ei Sam ai, pwe iduen me komui kupukupura.
22 [Jesus also said to the 72 disciples], “[God], my Father, has revealed to me all [I need to know and the power I need for my work]. Only my Father knows who I [really] am. Furthermore, only I and those [people] to whom I wish to reveal him know what [God] my Father is [like].”
Meakaros muei ong ia er sang ren Sam ai, o sota me asa sapwilim a Ol, pwe Sam eta. O sota me asa Sam, pwe sapwilim a Ol eta, o me sapwilim a Ol pan kasale ong.
23 Then when Jesus’ disciples were alone with him, he turned toward them and said, “[God] is pleased with you [SYN] who have seen [the things that I have done]!
I ap kotin saupei dong tounpadak kan, masani ong irail eta: Meid pai por en mas akan me udial, me komail udialer.
24 I want you to know that many prophets and kings [who lived long ago] desired to see the things that you are seeing [me do], but these things did not [happen] then. They longed to hear the things that you have been hearing [me say], but these things were not [revealed to them] then.”
Pwe I indai ong komail, saukop o nanmarki kan toto anane udial, me komail kin ududial, a re sota kilanger; a re men rongada, me komail kin rongerong, ap sota rongadar.
25 [One day as Jesus was teaching people], a man was there who had studied carefully the laws that [God gave Moses]. He wanted to ask Jesus a difficult question. So he stood up and asked, “Teacher, what shall I do in order to live [with God] forever?” (aiōnios g166)
A kilang, saunkawewe men ap uda, kasongesong i potoan ong: Saunpadak, da me i en wiada, pwen sosoki maur soutuk? (aiōnios g166)
26 Jesus said to him, “You [(sg)] have read [RHQ] what [Moses] has written in the laws that [God gave him]. What did Moses write about living forever?”
A kotin masani ong i: Da me intingidier nan kapung o? Daduen om dondoropwe?
27 The man replied, “[He wrote that] we [(inc)] must love the Lord our God. [We must show that] by what we feel and by what we do and by what we think. [He] also [wrote that we must love] people that we come in contact with as much as [we love] ourselves.”
A sapeng indada: Koe en pok ong Kaun om Kot mongiong om unsok, o ngen om unsok, o kel om unsok, o om Iamelam unsok, o men imp om dueta pein koe.
28 Jesus replied, “You [(sg)] have answered [your question] correctly. If you do all that [continually], you will live [with God forever].”
A kotin masani ong i: Koe meid sapeng inen, wiada mepukat, a koe pan maurela.
29 But the man wanted to defend [the way] he [acted toward people that he came in contact with] (OR, to defend why he [had asked a question that Jesus answered so simply]). So he said to Jesus, “Which people that I come in contact with [should I love]?”
A ap men ak kapungki pein i indang Iesus: A is men imp ai?
30 Jesus replied [by telling him this illustration]: “A [Jewish] man was once going down along the road from Jerusalem to Jericho. Bandits attacked him. They took away [most of] the man’s clothes [and everything else that he had], and they beat him until he was almost dead. Then they left him.
A Iesus kotin sapeng masani: Aramas amen momait sang Ierusalem kodila Ieriko ap lodi ong lolap akai, me ter sang a likau kan, o kame i, rap koieila; i ari pan mela.
31 It happened that a [Jewish] priest was going along that road. When he saw that man, [instead of helping him], he passed by on the other side [of the road].
A samero amen momaitela nani al ota. A ni a kilang i, ap daulul wei sang.
32 Similarly, a man who worked in the temple [in Jerusalem] came to that place and saw the man. But he also passed by on the other side [of the road].
A leap amen pil dueta. Ni a leler wasa o, kilang i, ap daulul wei sang.
33 Then a man from Samaria [province] came along that road to where the man was lying. [People from Samaria despise Jews. But] when he saw that man, he pitied him.
A ol en Samaria amen sailok sili ap pil weid wasa o. Ni a kilanger i ap pokela,
34 He went over to him and put some [olive] oil and wine on his wounds [to help heal them]. He wound strips of cloth [around the wounds]. He placed the man on his own donkey and took him to an inn and took care of him.
Kola re a, o kidim pena a pwal akan, ap ki ong le o wain lole o kamondi i pon dake pa man o, wala nan im en kairu eu, apapwali i.
35 The next morning he gave two silver coins to the innkeeper and said, ‘Take care of this man. If you [(sg)] spend more than this amount [to care for him], I will pay you back when I return.’”
Manda a pan samala, ap ki ong kaun en im o denar riau indang i: Apapwali i! A ma mekis pan dauli, i pan kapungala, ni ai pan puredo.
36 Then Jesus said, “Three people [saw] the man whom bandits attacked. Which one of them [acted in a loving way toward] that man?”
A is ren ir silimen, me koe wiaki men impan ol o, me lodi ong lolap oko?
37 The man who studied the Scriptures replied, “The one who acted mercifully toward him.” Jesus said to him, “You [(sg)] go and act like that [toward] everyone whom [you can help]!”
A sapeng: Me wiadar dodok kadek ong i. Iesus ap kotin masani ong i: Ari, kowei ala sang!
38 As Jesus and his disciples continued to travel, they entered a village [near Jerusalem]. A woman whose name was Martha invited them to come to her house.
A kadekadeo ni ar kotin sailokela, a kotilong ong nan kisin kanim eu. Li amen mi wasa o, ad a Marta, me kasamo i long ong nan im a.
39 Her [younger] sister, whose name was Mary, sat near Jesus. She was listening to what he was teaching.
Ri a li amen mia, me ad a Maria, me momod ni aluwilu en Iesus, rongerong a masan.
40 But Martha was very much concerned about preparing [a meal]. She went to Jesus and said, “Lord, (you do not seem to care that my sister has left me to prepare everything by myself!/do you not care that my sister has left me to prepare everything by myself?) [RHQ] Tell her that she should help me!”
A Marta kasopisokki pein i a papa i. I ari potodo potoan ong: Maing, re sota kotin kupuroki ri ai li, me sota kin iang ia dodok? Re kotin padaki ong i, en sauasa ia.
41 But the Lord replied, “Martha, Martha, you [(sg)] are very worried about many things.
A Iesus kotin sapeng masani ong i: Marta, Marta, koe meid nongki o sopisokki okotme.
42 But only one thing is truly necessary, and that is, [to listen to what I am teaching]. Mary has decided to [do that], and that is better [than worrying]. [The blessing that she is receiving from listening to me] will not be taken away from her {No one will take away from her [the blessing that she is receiving from listening to me]}.”
A me ta kot me kasampwal. Maria piladar pwais mau, me sota pan katia sang.
