< Luke 14 >

1 One (Jewish day of rest/Sabbath day), Jesus went to eat [SYN] at the house of an important Pharisee. Some [men who studied the Jewish] laws and other Pharisees who were there were watching him carefully [to see if he would do something for which they could accuse him].
Aru eneka hoise, Jisu ekjon Pharisee khan laga ghor te Bisram dinte bhaat khabole jaise, aru Jisu ki kori ase etu sob bhal pora taikhan sai thakise.
2 Unexpectedly, there was a man in front of Jesus whose arms and legs were swollen.
Aru ta te ekjon manu thakise jun gaw phula bemar pora dukh pai thakise.
3 Jesus said to them, “Is it permitted in [our(inc)] Jewish laws to heal [someone] (on our Jewish rest day/on the Sabbath), or not?”
Titia Jisu Pharisee khan aru Yehudi niyom jana manu khan ke hudi kene koise, “Bisram dinte changai kori bole pare na nai?”
4 [They knew that their laws permitted it, but they thought that healing was work, which they thought was wrong to do] (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day) (OR, [they knew that their laws permitted it, but they did not want to admit it]). So they did not reply. Then Jesus put his hands on the man and healed him. Then he told him to go [home].
Kintu taikhan eku kowa nai, titia Jisu taike dhorise aru changai kori dise, aru taike pathai dise.
5 Then he said to the rest of them, “If you had a son or an ox that fell into a well on a (Sabbath/our day of rest), would you immediately [work to] pull him out, [or would you(sg) let him stay there until the next day]?”
Titia Tai pora taikhan ke hudise, “Tumikhan majote kunba tai laga bacha nahoile bhi tai laga janwar Bisram dinte panite giri le jai kene phot uthai nolobo naki?”
6 [They knew that they would immediately work to pull him out, even on their day of rest, so they could not justly say that Jesus did wrong by healing the man on that day. So] they said nothing in reply to Jesus.
Taikhan etu kotha te eku jowab dibo para nai.
7 Jesus noticed that those people who had been {whom [the Pharisee] had} invited [to the meal] chose [to sit in] the places where important [people usually sit]. Then he gave [this advice] to them:
Titia Tai arubi taikhan ke ekta dristanto koise, jun khan ke khabole mati sele, taikhan kineka kori kene bhal jagate bohi bole pabo, etu kosis kori thakise.
8 “When one of you [(sg)] is invited by someone {someone invites one of you [(sg)]} to a wedding feast, do not sit in a place where important people sit. Perhaps the man [giving the feast] has invited a man more important than you [(sg)].
Jitia tumikhan ke shadi te khabole mate, tumikhan bhal jagate nabohibi, kele koile tumikhan pora bhi kunba bisi sonman thaka manu ke mati kene thakibo pare,
9 [When that man comes], the man who invited both of you will come to you [(sg)] and say to you, ‘Let this man take your seat!’ Then you [(sg)] will have to take the most undesirable seat, and you will be ashamed.
aru jitia tumi aru dusra manu junke khana te matise, tai tumikhan ke kobo, ‘Tumi laga jaga to taike dibi,’ aru titia sorom pora taike etu jaga to dikene tumi chutu jagate he bohi jai.
10 Instead, when you are invited {[someone] invites one of you} [to a feast], go and sit in the most undesirable seat. Then when the man who invited everyone comes, he will say to you [(sg)], ‘Friend, sit in a better seat!’ Then all the people who are eating with you [(sg)] will see that he is honoring you.
Jitia, tumike mate, jabi aru sobse chutu jagate he bohibi, jitia jun pora tumike matise tai ahibo, tai tumike kobo, ‘Sathi, uporte ahibi.’ Titia tumi laga sonman to dusra manu bohi thaka usorte bisi hoijai.
11 Also, [remember this]: [God] will humble those who exalt themselves. And [he] will exalt those who humble themselves.”
Jun manu nijorke dangor kori bole bisare tai chutu hoi jabo, aru jun manu tai nijorke chutu kore taike uthai dibo.”
12 [Jesus] also said to [the Pharisee] who had invited him to the meal, “When you [(sg)] invite people to a midday or evening meal, do not invite your friends or your family or your other relatives or your rich neighbors. They can later invite you [(sg) for a meal]. In that way they will repay you.
Titia tai etu manu ke kobo jun he taike matise, “Jitia tumi kha luwa koribo, tumi laga bhal sathi khan, bhai khan aru dhuni manu ke namatibi, nohoile taikhan bhi tumike matibo, aru tumi taikhan nimite ki korise etu he apuni pabo.
13 Instead, when you [(sg)] give a feast, invite poor [people], crippled [people], lame [people], or blind [people].
Kintu jitia tumi kha luwa kore, gorib khan, bera bole napara, andha aru bemar manu khan ke mati bhi,
14 They will be unable to repay you. [But God will bless you! He] will repay you [at the time] when [he causes] righteous people to become alive again.”
aru tumikhan asirbad pabo, kelemane taikhan tumike ghurai kene eku dibole na paribo. Kintu tumikhan ke Jisu Khrista wapas lobole aha homoi te biswasi khan logote sob kaam laga inam dibo.”
15 One of those who were eating with Jesus heard him say that. He said to Jesus, “God [has truly] blessed [us Jews] who will eat [with the Messiah] when he starts to rule!”
Jitia jun ekjon mez te bohi thakise aru eitu khan huni thakise, tai Jisu ke koise, “Dhonyo ase jun Isor laga rajyote roti khabo!”
16 But [to show that many Jews whom God had invited would not accept God’s invitation] [MET], Jesus replied to him, “One time a man [decided] to prepare a large feast. He invited many people to come.
Titia Jisu pora taikhan ke ekta dristanto koise, “Ekjon manu dangor kha luwa bonai kene manu khan ke matise.
17 When it was the day for the feast, he sent his servant to tell those who had been {whom he had} invited, ‘Come [now] because everything is ready!’
Aru jitia khabole homoi ahise, tai laga noukar khan ke pathai kene jun manu khan ke matise taikhan ke koise, ‘Ahibi, sob to taiyar hoi jaise.’
18 But [when the servant did that], all of the people [whom he had invited] began to say why they did not want to come. The first [man the servant went to] said, ‘I have just bought a field, and I must go and see it. Please [ask your master to] forgive me for not coming!’
Kintu mata khan sob nijor bahana kori bole shuru hoise. Poila ekjon pora koise, ‘Moi ekta kheti kinise, aru moi ta te jai kene sabo lagibo. Morom pora biya napabi.’
19 Another person said, ‘I have just bought five pair of oxen, and I must go to examine them. Please [ask your master to] forgive me for not coming!’
Aru ekjon pora koise, moi pansta guru kinise, moi taikhan ke kheti te loijai kene ekbar sabo. Morom pora biya napabi.’
20 Another person said, ‘I have just been married. So I cannot come.’
Aru dusra ekjon pora koise, ‘Moi ekjon maiki logote shadi korise, aru etu nimite moi ahibole na paribo.’
21 So the servant returned to his master and reported what [everyone had said]. The owner of the house was angry [when he heard the reasons they gave for not] coming. He said to his servant, ‘Go out quickly to the streets and alleys of the city [and find] poor and crippled and blind and lame [people, and bring] them here into [my house]!’
Titia noukar khan sob kotha to tai laga malik ke ahikena koise. Ghor laga malik khong uthi kene, noukar khan ke koise, ‘Bahar te joldi jabi aru bosti rasta pora gorib manu, bera bole napara, suku andha aru bemar manu ke loi anibi.’
22 [After the servant went and did that], he [came back and] said, ‘Sir, I have done what you [(sg)] told me to do, but there is still room [for more people].’
Sewak pora etu kaam kori kene tai koise, ‘Probhu Apuni ki koise eneka kori dise, aru bhi alohi manu bisi karone jaga ase.’
23 [So] his master said to him, ‘Then go [outside the city]. Search for people along the highways. Search also along the narrow roads with hedges beside them [where homeless people may be staying]. Strongly urge the people in those places to come to [my house]. I want it to be full of [people]!’”
Titia malik tai laga noukar khan ke koise, ‘Bahar te jabi aru rasta kinar aru jun jaga pora hoile taikhan ke mati kene loi anibi, Moi laga ghor to bhorta hobo lage.
24 [Then Jesus said], “I tell you [(pl)] this: Very few of you [Jewish] people will enjoy my feast, even though [I] invited you [first to eat it with me when I become king].”
Moi tumikhan ke koi ase, jun manu khan ke Moi poila mati sele taikhan Moi ki kha luwa bonaise etu khabole napabo.’”
25 Large groups of people were traveling with [Jesus]. He turned and said to them,
Aru bisi manu khan Jisu laga pichete jai thakise, aru Tai ghuri kene taikhan ke koise,
26 “If anyone comes to me who loves his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters [more than] [HYP] [he loves me], he cannot be my disciple. He must even love me more than he loves his own life!
“Jun manu Moi logote ahibole itcha ase kintu tai nijor laga baba, ama, maiki, bacha, bhai, bhoini aru nijor jibon to ghin nakore, tai Moi laga chela hobole na paribo.
27 [People who are ready to execute a prisoner make] him carry his cross [MET] [to the place where others will nail him] on it. Only those who are willing [to allow others to hurt them and disgrace them] like that because of being my disciples, and who are willing to obey what I teach, can be my disciples.
Jun manu tai nijor laga Cross uthaikene Moi pichete nahe tai Moi laga chela hobole na paribo.
28 [I will illustrate] [MET]. If one of you desired to build a (tower/big house), (you would surely first sit down and determine how much it would cost!/would you not first sit down and determine how much it would cost?) [RHQ] Then you would determine whether you had enough money to complete it.
Jun manu ekta ghor bona bole itcha kore, poila tai bohi kene, tai logote thaka poisa pora ghor bona khotom koribo paribona nai koi kene ginti nakore naki?
29 [If you did not do that], if you laid the foundation and were not able to finish [the rest of the tower], everyone who saw it would make fun of you.
Jitia, tai ghor laga bhetimul to uthai dibo, aru ghor to khotom kori bole naparile, sob manu saikene taike hasi dibo,
30 They would say, ‘This man started to build [a tower], but he was not able to finish it!’
aru kobo, etu manu ghor to bona bole shuru korise kintu khotom kori bole para nai.’
31 Or, if a king decided to [send his army to] war against another king, (he would surely first sit down [with those who] advised [him]./would he not first sit down [with those who] advised [him]?) [RHQ] They would determine whether [his army], which had only 10,000 soldiers, could defeat the [other army], which had 20,000 soldiers, and was about to attack his [army].
Aru ekjon raja, dusra raja logote lorai kori bole ase, tai poila bohi kene nasabo naki, tai laga dos hajar manu pora dusra raja laga bis hajar logote lorai koribo paribona nai?
32 If he [decided] that his army could not [defeat that army], he would send messengers to [the other king] while the other army was still far away. He would tell the messengers to say to that king, ‘What things must I do to have peace with your country?’
Kintu, tai dur te thaka homoi te, ekjon manu ke shanti pora kotha kori kene lorai to rukhai dibo.
33 So, similarly, if any one of you does not first decide that you [(sg)] are [willing to] give up all that you have, you cannot be my disciple.”
Etu nisena, jun manu tai laga sob dhun sompoti chari kene nahile, tai Moi laga chela hobole na paribo.
34 [Jesus also said, “You are like] [MET] salt, which is useful [to put on food]. But (salt certainly cannot be made {[you] certainly cannot make salt} to taste salty again if it stops tasting salty!/can salt be made {can [you] make salt} to taste salty again if it quits tasting salty?) [RHQ]
Etu nimite nimok to bhal ase, kintu nimok laga swadh harai dile kineka etu ke aru swadisht bonabo?
35 [If salt does not taste salty any more], it is not good for the soil or even for the manure heap. [People] throw it away. [The same thing will happen to you if you become useless to God]. If you want to understand what I just said [IDM], you must consider [carefully] what you have heard!”
Etu ke mati nimite bhi aru kheti te mol bona bole bhi kaam nathake. Taikhan etu ke phelai dibo. Jun manu logote huni bole kan ase, taikhan huni bhi.”
