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].
Lao esa, nandaa no fai hule-oꞌeꞌ, atahori partei agama Farisi ra malanggan esa noꞌe Yesus fo nema naa sia umen. Ana endoꞌ naa-ninu, ma hambu atahori maku-maꞌu E fo rae rita Ana nae tao saa nandaa no fai hule-oꞌeꞌ.
2 Unexpectedly, there was a man in front of Jesus whose arms and legs were swollen.
Leleꞌ naa, hambu atahori esa mamahedꞌi ao maꞌasofeꞌ endoꞌ sia naa boe.
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?”
Boe ma, Yesus natane mahine hukun Yahudi ma atahori Farisi mana endo raa-rinu sia naa nae, “Tungga baꞌi Musa hohoro-lalanen, bisa tao nahaiꞌ atahori hedꞌis, nandaa no fai hule-oꞌeꞌ, do hokoꞌ?”
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].
Te nda hambu esa nahara sa boe. Boe ma Yesus kois atahori mamahedꞌiꞌ a, de hai neuꞌ ena. Basa ma Yesus denu e baliꞌ.
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]?”
Basa naa ma, Yesus natane se fai nae, “Mete ma hambu anadikiꞌ sa tudꞌa oe rala neu, nandaa no fai hule-oꞌeꞌ, hei mii nore baliꞌ e dꞌean, do hokoꞌ? Mete ma sapi a tudꞌa rala neu, na hei hela e, do, lea hendi e dꞌean? Neꞌo hei lea hendi e dꞌean. De naa sosoan nae, hei o tao ues ena boe, to!”
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.
Rena Yesus olaꞌ taꞌo naa, te nda hambu atahori esa bisa nataa E sa boe.
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:
Leleꞌ naa, Yesus memeteꞌ atahori mana rema raa sia ume fefetas a. Hambu atahori hetar pili mamanaꞌ sia mataꞌ, fo reu endoꞌ sia naa. Nita taꞌo naa, boe ma Ana olaꞌ nae,
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)].
Besa-bꞌesa, o! Mete ma atahori rarolo nggi misiꞌ fefeta kakabꞌiꞌ, na, afiꞌ mii endo sia ataori moko-monaen ra mamanan. Huu afiꞌ losa tenu fefetas narolo fuiꞌ manaseliꞌ lenaꞌ nggo.
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.
Mete ma taꞌo naa, tenu fefetas neꞌo nema olaꞌ no nggo nae, ‘Afiꞌ mumunasa, e! Amaꞌ tulun lali misiꞌ deaꞌ naa dei, huu au sadꞌia hela kadꞌera ia fee neu atahori moko monaen ra.’ Boe ma ho fela hela kadꞌera naa no mamaet, de muu endoꞌ sia seku dꞌeaꞌ.
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.
Dadꞌi mete ma hambu nerolot, na, muu endoꞌ sia kadꞌera mana seku sia deaꞌ. Dei fo mete ma tenu fefetas nita nggo, na neti noꞌe nae, ‘Eh, Amaꞌ! Laꞌi fo endoꞌ sia mataꞌ ia.’ No taꞌo naa hei hambu hadꞌa-hormat sia atahori fuiꞌ ra matan nara.
11 Also, [remember this]: [God] will humble those who exalt themselves. And [he] will exalt those who humble themselves.”
Huu atahori mana soꞌu-soꞌuꞌ aon, dei fo Lamatuaꞌ naꞌatutudꞌaꞌ e. Te atahori mana tao aon onaꞌ anadꞌiki, dei fo Lamatuaꞌ soꞌu nanaru e.”
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.
Basa naa ma, Yesus olaꞌ no tenu umeꞌ a nae, “Faiꞌ ruma, mete ma amaꞌ tao fefetas, na, afiꞌ muroloꞌ a bobꞌonggim no nonoom atahori mamasuꞌiꞌ ra! Te neꞌo ara bisa rarolo baliꞌ nggo fai!
13 Instead, when you [(sg)] give a feast, invite poor [people], crippled [people], lame [people], or blind [people].
De mete ma amaꞌ feta-dꞌote, na, murolo atahori hata-taaꞌ, ei doꞌoꞌ, keko-lukuꞌ, ma atahori pokeꞌ ra.
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.”
Huu neꞌo ara nda bisa bala-bꞌae rala nggo sa. Te mete ma amaꞌ murolo se, Lamatualain mana bala-bꞌae. Dei fo mete ma nafefela baliꞌ atahori mamahereꞌ mia mamates ena, Ana nda liliiꞌ amaꞌ malolem sa.”
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!”
Rena taꞌo naa ma, hambu atahori sa mana endoꞌ no Yesus olaꞌ nae, “Atahori mana onton seli naeni atahori mana raa raꞌabꞌue sia Lamatualain ume manen, o!”
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.
Yesus nataa e nae, “Au dui taꞌo ia: Hambu atahori sa tao fefeta ineꞌ. Boe ma ana narolo atahori hetar.
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!’
Leleꞌ ara sadꞌia rala fefetas ena ma, ana denu atahori dedꞌenun, neu noꞌe atahori mana hambu nerolotꞌ ra nae, ‘Laꞌi, te fefetas sangga mulai ena.’
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!’
Te basa se sangga dalaꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ naa fo ara nda reu sa. Esa bꞌale nae, ‘Waa! Au feꞌe hasa ala osi sa, de au musi uu mete sobꞌa e dei. Afiꞌ mumunasa o! Huu au nda bisa uu sa.’
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!’
Hambu esa fai nae, ‘Au feꞌe hasa ala sapi hohombu moleꞌ pasan lima. Au ae uu sobꞌa sudꞌi se, de afiꞌ mumunasa, o!
20 Another person said, ‘I have just been married. So I cannot come.’
Esa fai nae, ‘Au feꞌe sao ena, de nda bisa uu sa.’
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]!’
Basa ma, atahori dedꞌenuꞌ a baliꞌ de nafadꞌe tenu fefetas a. Rena nala ma, tenu fefetas namanasa seli. Boe ma ana parenda atahori dedꞌenuꞌ a nae, ‘Mete ma taꞌo naa, lao muu leo lai-lai! Muu sia basa okofoꞌ ma dꞌala kabiaꞌ ra sia kota, fo murolo mendi basa atahori hata-taaꞌ ra, ei doꞌo, pokeꞌ, ma keko-lukuꞌ ra.’
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].’
Rena taꞌo naa ma, atahori dꞌedeꞌnuꞌ a neu narolo atahori ra. De ana baliꞌ ma nafadꞌe nae, ‘Amaꞌ! Basa se rema ena, te mamana rouꞌ feꞌe hetar.’
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]!’”
Boe ma tenu fefetas nae, ‘Mete ma taꞌo naa, muu seluꞌ fai sia kambo-kamboꞌ sia kota dꞌeaꞌ, losa osi-lutu ra. Kokoe sudꞌiꞌ a se, fo mo se rema, sadꞌi tao sofe mamana fefetas ia.
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].”
Rena, e! Atahori nda mana simbo nerolo ngga naa, ara nda ramedꞌa rita fefetas ia nanaat nara maladꞌan mbei sa boe!’”
25 Large groups of people were traveling with [Jesus]. He turned and said to them,
Basa naa ma, Yesus se lao rakandoo risiꞌ Yerusalem. Atahori hetar tungga E. De Ana mbali se, ma Ana olaꞌ nae,
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!
“‘Atahori mana tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ nau tungga Au, ana musi sue Au lenaꞌ basa e: lenaꞌ ina-ama nara, lenaꞌ sao-ana nara, lenaꞌ odꞌi-aꞌa nara, lelenan fai eni aon. Mete ma hokoꞌ, atahori naa, nda nandaa dadꞌi Au ana mana tungga ngga sa.
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.
Te atahori mana nda nau lemba doidꞌosoꞌ sa, huu ana tungga Au, ana nda nandaa dadꞌi Au atahori ngga sa. Atahori mana nae dadꞌi Au atahori ngga, onaꞌ mae atahori rae tao risa e o, ana lemba nakandoo doidꞌoson.
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.
Dadꞌi mete ma mae tungga Au, na, duꞌa malolole dei. Onaꞌ atahori rae rafefela Ume dek. Ana musi reken lutuꞌ-leloꞌ naꞌahuluꞌ dei, ume nala dꞌoiꞌ baꞌu saa. Afiꞌ losa dꞌoiꞌ nda dai sa.
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.
Huu mete ma nda ito-reken lutuꞌ-leloꞌ sa na, afiꞌ losa feꞌe taoꞌ a ume a netehun, te dꞌoiꞌ basa ena. Ma atahori ra mali raꞌamamaeꞌ e,
30 They would say, ‘This man started to build [a tower], but he was not able to finish it!’
rae, ‘Hei mita atahori naa dei! Ana feꞌe taoꞌ a ume netehun, nda feꞌe saa sa boe, te dꞌoin basa ena.’
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].
Conto Laen fai, naeni soꞌal netatiꞌ. Mane mana nae natati musi endoꞌ no nonoon nara fo ola-olaꞌ raꞌahuluꞌ deiꞌ Mete ma naꞌena a soldꞌadꞌu atahori rifon sanahuluꞌ a, na musi timba-tai eni bisa nasenggiꞌ musu, atahori rifon ruanulu, do hokoꞌ?
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?’
Mete ma timba-tai basa, ma duꞌa nae neꞌo eni nda nasenggiꞌ sa, na, malole lenaꞌ, leleꞌ musu a feꞌe sia dodꞌooꞌ, te ana haitua memaꞌ dedꞌenuꞌ fo olaꞌ dꞌame.
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.”
Onaꞌ naa boe, atahori mana nae tungga Au. Eni musi duꞌa neu-nema malolole, nae eni nahehere lao hela basaꞌ e, do hokoꞌ? Mete ma hokoꞌ, atahori naa nda nandaa dadꞌi ana dedꞌenu Ngga sa.”
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]
Yesus tute seluꞌ dedꞌea-oꞌolan no conto laen fai nae, “Masiꞌ naa, maloleꞌ. Hita pake fo tao maladꞌa nanaat. Te mete ma masiꞌ a nda masi sa ena, na nggunan sa fai? Hita nda bisa pake e fo tao maladꞌa nanaat sa ena. Tae tao dadꞌi pupuk o, nda bisa sa ena. Hita nggari hendi e neuꞌ ena. Dadꞌi hei o musi dadꞌi onaꞌ masiꞌ a, fo misodꞌa sue-lai basa atahori. Seka ma ndikiꞌ, na, rena malolole, o!”
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!”
