Luke 8
1 Shortly afterwards, Jesus went on a journey through the towns and villages, proclaiming the Good News of the Kingdom of God. With him went the Twelve,
Nda dooꞌ sa ma, Yesus no ana dedꞌenun kasanahulu rua nara, reu laoꞌ ndule kota-kota ma kambo-kamboꞌ sia naa. Ana laoꞌ nafadꞌe atahori soꞌal Lamatualain parendan. Naa dadꞌi hara-lii maloleꞌ neu se.
2 as well as some women who had been cured of wicked spirits and of infirmities. They were Mary, known as Mary of Magdala (from whom seven demons had been expelled),
Sia nononggoꞌ naa, hambu inaꞌ ruma tungga boe. Inaꞌ ia ra, ruma parna ramahedꞌi mataꞌ-mataꞌ, ma ruma nitu taoꞌ boe. Te Yesus tao nahaiꞌ basa se ena. Onaꞌ Maria mia kambo Magdala. Feꞌesaꞌan Yesus oi hendi nitu hitu mia e.
3 and Joanna (the wife of Herod’s steward, Chuza), and Susannah, and many others — all of whom ministered to Jesus and his Apostles out of their means.
Susana no mama Yohana o tungga boe. Mama Yohana ia, ama Kusa saon. Kusa ia, malangga mana nanalalau sia mane Herodes ume panggat na. Feꞌe hambu inaꞌ hetar mana laoꞌ roo Yesus se. Inaꞌ ia ra tanggon Yesus se doꞌi dꞌala nara.
4 Once, when a great crowd was collecting, and, when the people of town after town were flocking to Jesus, he spoke to them in the form of a parable:
Lao esa, atahori rema mia kamboꞌ hetar fo sangga Yesus. Leleꞌ atahori ra raꞌabꞌue ena, ma Ana dui se nekendandaaꞌ sa nae,
5 “The sower went out to sow his seed; and, as he was sowing, some of the seed fell along the path and was trodden upon; and the wild birds ate it up.
“Hambu atahori mana ue rae sa neu nggari fini sia osin. Fini ruma tudꞌa sia dalaꞌ. Leleꞌ atahori laoꞌ sia naa, ara tatabꞌu fini ra. Basa ma mbuiꞌ ra rema de bꞌidꞌo-raa hendi basa se.
6 Other seed fell upon rock, and, as soon as it began to grow, having no moisture, withered away.
Fini ruma tudꞌa sia rae fatuꞌ. Fini ra ranumbu boe, te male hendi se, huu oe mbeiꞌ a.
7 Other seed fell in the middle of brambles, but the brambles grew up with it and choked it entirely.
Fini ruma tudꞌa sia mamana dꞌuri nggaut. De leleꞌ fini ra ranumbu boe, dꞌuri nggaut hapi nisa se.
8 Other seed fell into rich soil, and grew, and gave a hundred-fold return.” After saying this, Jesus cried aloud: “Let him who has ears to hear with hear.”
Te fini ruma fai, tudꞌa sia rae isi maloleꞌ. Ara ranumbu, ma raꞌamoko losa rabꞌoa. Fini naa ra fee baliꞌ buna-bꞌoaꞌ lao natun sa.” Dꞌui basa taꞌo naa, ma Yesus nateꞌe nekendandaaꞌ naa, ma nafadꞌe nae, “Hei mana pasa ndiki mara, ama duꞌa malolole!”
9 His disciples asked Jesus the meaning of this parable.
Basa ma, Yesus ana dedꞌenu nara ratane nekekendandaaꞌ a sosoan.
10 “To you,” he said, “the knowledge of the hidden truths of the Kingdom of God has been imparted, but to others in parables only, that ‘though they have eyes they may not see, and though they have ears, they may not understand.’
Ana nataa nae, “Taꞌo ia! Huu hei tungga tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ Lamatualain hihii-nanaun ena, naa de Au ufadꞌe relo-relo fo ama bubꞌuluꞌ, Lamatuaꞌ nae parenda atahori nara taꞌo bee. Te atahori feaꞌ ra nda nau tao-afiꞌ neu Lamatuaꞌ hihii-nanaun sa. Naeni de Au unori se endiꞌ nekendandaaꞌ. Huu Lamatuaꞌ mana ola-ola nara suraꞌ memaꞌ soꞌal atahori ia ra nae, “Ara rita ena, te nda nau rahine sa. Ara rena ena, te nda nau bubꞌuluꞌ sa.”
11 This is the parable — The seed is God’s Message.
Boe ma Yesus nafadꞌe nekendandaaꞌ naa sosoan, nae “Fini naa, naeni Lamatualain Dedꞌea-oꞌolan.
12 By the seed which fell along the path are meant those who hear the Message; but then comes the Devil and carries away the Message from their minds, to prevent their believing it and being saved.
Fini mana tudꞌa sia dalaꞌ a, naeni atahori mana rena Lamatuaꞌ Dedꞌea oꞌolan, te basa ma nitur malanggan nema rambas nendi Dedꞌea Oꞌolaꞌ ra mia rala nara. No taꞌo naa, ara nda ramahere Lamatuaꞌ, ma nda hambu masodꞌaꞌ sa.
13 By the seed which fell upon the rock are meant those who, as soon as they hear the Message, welcome it joyfully; but they have no root, and believe it only for a time, and, when the time of temptation comes, they draw back.
Fini mana tudꞌa sia rae fatuꞌ a, naeni atahori mana rena Lamatuaꞌ Dedꞌea-oꞌolan no nemehoꞌot. Te oka nara nda romaꞌ rala reu sa. Ara mulai ramahere, te mete ma hambu sususaꞌ, ara tudꞌa neuꞌ ena.
14 By that which fell among the brambles are meant those who hear the Message, but who, as they go on their way, are completely choked by this world’s cares and wealth and pleasures, and bring nothing to perfection.
Fini mana tudꞌa sia mamana dꞌuri-nggaut naa, naeni atahori mana rena ma simbo Lamatuaꞌ Dedꞌea-oꞌolan. Te nda dooꞌ sa ma, ara liliiꞌ hendi Dedꞌea-oꞌolaꞌ naa ra, huu ara hiiꞌ a sebꞌo-mue ro ue-tatao nara, hata-hetoꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ, ma hiiꞌ a rasodꞌa no nemehoꞌotꞌ a. Naa de, nemehere nara, nda naꞌena buna-bꞌoaꞌ saa-saa sa boe.
15 But by that in the good ground are meant those who, having heard the Message, keep it in the good, rich soil of their hearts, and patiently yield a return.
Te fini mana tudꞌa sia rae isi maloleꞌ naa, naeni atahori rala ndoos no maloleꞌ. Leleꞌ ara rena Lamatualain Dedꞌea-oꞌolan, ara mbedꞌaꞌ malolole sia rala nara. No taꞌo naa, ramahere rakandoo, ma tao dꞌala maloleꞌ naeꞌ.”
16 No man sets light to a lamp and then covers it with a bowl or puts it underneath a couch, but he puts it on a lamp-stand, so that anyone who comes in may see the light.
Basa ma Yesus olaꞌ seluꞌ nae, “Nda hambu atahori rambilaꞌ lambu tiiꞌoek, basa na tatana hura rae neu e sa. Boe ma nda hambu atahori mbedꞌaꞌ lambu nisiꞌ koi a raeꞌ sa. Mete ma tao taꞌo naa, na, atahori nda rita rondan sa ena. Lambu mana naꞌena nggunaꞌ, naeni mana mbedꞌaꞌ sia mamana naruꞌ ata, naa fo rondan fee manggareloꞌ neu atahori mana rala rema.
17 Nothing is hidden which will not be brought into the light of day, not ever kept hidden which will not some day become known and come into the light of day.
Ia naa basa mana maꞌafuniꞌ ra, dei fo nenenitaꞌ. Boe ma basa saa fo atahori nda rahine leleꞌ ia sa, dei fo ara hambu rahine boe.
18 Take care, then, how you listen. For, to all those who have, more will be given; while, from all those who have nothing, even what they seem to have will be taken away.”
Dadꞌi hei musi duꞌa malolole dalaꞌ ia ra. Atahori mana nau sangga nahine tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ Lamatuaꞌ hihii-nanaun, ana boe nahine. Te atahori fo nda mana taoafiꞌ neu Lamatuaꞌ hihii-nanaun sa ana boe namanggoa.
19 Presently Jesus’ mother and brothers came where he was, but they were not able to join him on account of the crowd.
Lao esa, Yesus sebꞌo-mue no atahori hetar. Boe ma maman no odꞌi nara rema rae randaa ro E. Te ara nda bisa deka-deka ro E sa, huu atahori naen seli.
20 So word was brought to him — ‘Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.’
Boe ma hambu atahori sa neu nafadꞌe Yesus nae, “Amaꞌ! Mamam no odꞌi mara sia dꞌean. Ara rae randaa ro Amaꞌ.”
21 His reply, spoken to them all, was: “My mother and my brothers are those who listen to God’s teaching and do what it bids.”
Boe ma Ana nataa nae, “Ia! Te taꞌo ia. Mama ngga ma toronoo matetu nggara, naeni atahori mana rena ma tao tungga Lamatualain Dedꞌea-oꞌolan.”
22 One day about that time, Jesus got into a boat with his disciples and said to them: “Let us go across the lake.”
Lao esa, Yesus noꞌe ana mana tungga nara nae, “Lao teu sae ofaꞌ, fo tisiꞌ dꞌano seriꞌ,” Boe ma ara sae ofaꞌ sa, de ara lao.
23 So they put off. While they were sailing, Jesus fell asleep. A squall swept down upon the lake, and their boat was filling and they were in danger.
Leleꞌ ara lao, ma Yesus sungguꞌ. Nda dooꞌ sa ma, sanggu anin losa. Ma ree poꞌa ofaꞌ rala neu, de raeꞌ a molo.
24 So the disciples came and roused him. “Sir, Sir,” they cried, “we are lost!” Jesus rose and rebuked the wind and the rushing waves, and they fell, and a calm followed.
Ana mana tungga nara rita taꞌo naa ma, ara fafae Yesus rae, “Papa! Papa, e! Fela fo tulun dei! Hita taeꞌ a molo mate ia ena!” Boe ma Yesus o fela boe. De Ana ai anin no ree a nae, “Muloeꞌ leo!” Boe ma ree no anin o namalino neuꞌ ena.
25 “Where is your faith?” he exclaimed. But in great awe and amazement they said to one another: “Who can this be, that he commands even the winds and the waves, and they obey him?”
Basa ma Ana bꞌua ana mana tungga nara nae, “Taꞌo bee de hei nda feꞌe mimihere Au sa?” Ara ramatau ma heran. Boe ma esa natane esa nae, “Awii! Yesus ia, seka? Taꞌo bee de Ana bisa parenda ree-anin, fo tungga hihii-nanaun e?”
26 And they reached the country of the Gerasenes, which is on the opposite side to Galilee;
Nda dooꞌ sa ma, Yesus se losa nusa Gerasa, sia dano Galilea seriꞌ.
27 and, on getting ashore, Jesus met a man, who had demons in him, coming out of the town. For a long time this man had worn no clothing, and he had not lived in a house, but in the tombs.
Sia naa, hambu atahori sa nitu ra tao e dooꞌ ena. Ana nda ma umeꞌ sa, de ana leo siaꞌ a rates. Fais-fais na ana laoꞌ neu-nema no maꞌaholan. Huu nitu ra parenda e rakandondooꞌ a. Atahori paꞌa e rasafafali rendiꞌ rante ma kale besiꞌ ena, te ana naꞌetuꞌ hendi se. Boe ma nitu ra akaꞌ raꞌasusuuꞌ e fo nela nisiꞌ mamana rouꞌ. Leleꞌ Yesus se onda mia ofaꞌ ma, atahori muluꞌ naa neu nisiꞌ Yesus. Atahori naa nggasi, ma natudꞌa aon sia Yesus ein. Boe ma Yesus parenda nae, “Woi, nitu! Kalua mia atahori ia!” Boe ma atahori muluꞌ naa nggasi nae, “Woi afiꞌ ngganggu au! Huu au uhine nggo, Yesus, Lamatualain manaseliꞌ a Anan! Afiꞌ tao doidꞌoso au!”
28 Catching sight of Jesus, he shrieked out and threw himself down before him, and in a loud voice exclaimed: “What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beseech you not to torment me.”
29 For Jesus was commanding the foul spirit to come out from the man. On many occasions it had seized him, and, even when secured with chains and fetters, and watched, he would break through anything that bound him, and be driven by the demon into the Wilds.
30 “What is your name?” Jesus asked. “Legion,” he answered (for many demons had taken possession of him);
Yesus natane e nae, “Naram seka?” Boe ma nitu naa nataa nae, “Legion, huu hai hetar, ona soldꞌadꞌu rifon-rifon.” Ana naꞌo naa, huu nitu hetar leo sia aon rala.
Nitu ra roꞌe rakandooꞌ a mbali Yesus fo afiꞌ fee sira risiꞌ Ndola Doidꞌosoꞌ a, naeni koasa deꞌulakaꞌ ra mamanan. (Abyssos g12)
32 There was a drove of many pigs close by feeding upon the hill-side; and the demons begged Jesus to give them leave to enter into them. Jesus gave them leave.
Te deka-deka sia naa, hambu fafi nononggo monaeꞌ esa sosoꞌa rae fo sangga nanaat sia leteꞌ a suun. De nitu ra roꞌe Yesus rae, “Denu hai misiꞌ fafi naa ra rala!” Boe ma Yesus naꞌaheiꞌ.
33 They came out from the man and took possession of the pigs; and the drove rushed down the steep slope into the lake and were drowned.
Basa ma, nitu ra lao hela touꞌ naa, de risiꞌ fafi naa ra rala. Basa fafi ra ramulu, de relaꞌ mia leteꞌ naa, ma boke risiꞌ dano rala reu. De basa se mate rasamele.
34 When the men who tended them saw what had happened, they ran away, and carried the news to the town, and to the country round.
Mana manea fafi ra rita taꞌo naa ma rela reu dui basaꞌ e ndule kambo-kamboꞌ mana sia naa ra.
35 The people went out to see what had happened, and, when they came to Jesus, they found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting, clothed and in his right mind, at Jesus’ feet; and they were awe-struck.
Rena rala dudꞌuit naa, ma atahori hetar reu risiꞌ mamanaꞌ naa. Ara rae rita mataꞌ saa mana dadꞌiꞌ ena. Losa naa, ma rita atahori nitu dꞌaiꞌ a endoꞌ subꞌa-subꞌa deka Yesus ein. Ana pake bua-baꞌus ena, ma mulun mopo ena. Rita taꞌo naa, ma basa se ramatau
36 Those who had seen it told them how the possessed man had been delivered;
Basa ma atahori mana rita mana dadꞌiꞌ naa ra, dui atahori mana rema feuꞌ ra soꞌal taꞌo bee de atahori muluꞌ naa hai.
37 upon which all the people in the neighbourhood of the Gerasenes asked Jesus to leave them, for they were terrified. Jesus got into a boat and returned.
Boe ma basa atahori Gerasa mana leo sia mamanaꞌ naa, roꞌe mbali Yesus fo Ana lao hela se, huu basa se ramatau rae mate. Boe ma Yesus se hene ofaꞌ neu, de baliꞌ risiꞌ dano Galilea seriꞌ reu.
38 The man from whom the demons had gone out begged Jesus to let him be with him; but Jesus sent him away.
Te atahori faaꞌ ra mana nenemboꞌiꞌ mia nitu ra, akaꞌ noꞌe mbali Yesus nae, “Amaꞌ! Au tungga ꞌo nggo boe!” Te Yesus nataa nae,
39 “Go back to your home,” he said, “and relate the story of all that God has done for you.” So the man went through the whole town and proclaimed, as he went, all that Jesus had done for him.
“Taꞌo ia! Malole lenaꞌ baliꞌ misiꞌ bobꞌonggi mara, fo dui se Lamatualain malolen, fo Ana tao fee nggoꞌ a.” Basa ma, atahori naa laoꞌ rereoꞌ kota naa, ma dui neu basa atahori soꞌal Yesus tao nahaiꞌ eni.
40 On his return, Jesus was welcomed by the people; for everyone was looking out for him.
Basa ma Yesus se lao risi dꞌano Galilea seriꞌ. Leleꞌ ara onda mia ofaꞌ, atahori hetar nea-neaꞌ E ena. Ara reu rakarumbu rae soru E.
41 And a man named Jaeirus, who was a President of the Synagogue, came to Jesus, and threw himself at Jesus’ feet, with entreaties that he would come to his house,
Sia naa o, hambu atahori esa, naran Yairus. Eni, malangga ume hule-oꞌe sia kota naa. Anan, akaꞌ esaꞌ a; ana fetoꞌ, too sanahulu rua ena. Ana fetoꞌ naa namahedꞌi naeꞌ, de naeꞌ a mate. Leleꞌ Yairus nita Lamatuaꞌ Yesus nema, ana neu sendeꞌ lululanggan sia Yesus matan. Ana noꞌe Yesus neu sia umen, fo tulu-fali ana feton. Leleꞌ Yesus naꞌaheiꞌ boe, ma ara lao risiꞌ Yairus umen. Atahori hetar o rae tungga boe de raote de reu. Naa de ara laoꞌ rakaseseti.
42 because his only daughter, who was about twelve years old, was dying. As Jesus was going, the people were pressing closely round him.
43 And a woman, who had suffered from haemorrhage for twelve years, and whom no one could cure,
Hambu inaꞌ sa o tungga no se boe. Ana namahedꞌi mboꞌa raaꞌ nda naloeꞌ bꞌatuu sa, doo na too sanahulu rua ena. Ana nabꞌasaꞌ dꞌoin no hata-heton ena, huu bꞌae neu dꞌoter ra. Te nda hambu esa bisa tao nahaiꞌ e sa boe. Hedꞌi na naa, akaꞌ mesu-fela nakandooꞌ a.
44 came up behind and touched the tassel of his cloak. Instantly the haemorrhage ceased.
De ana neu deka-deka neu Yesus dean. Boe ma ana kois Yesus badꞌun suun. Leleꞌ ana kois basa boe ma, hedꞌi mboꞌa-mboꞌa raa na naloeꞌ neuꞌ ena boe.
45 “Who was it that touched me?” Jesus asked; and, while everyone was denying having done so, Peter exclaimed: “Why, Sir, the people are crowding round you and pressing upon you!”
Aboiꞌ ma Yesus nambariiꞌ, de natane nae, “Seka mana kois Au?” Te atahori esa o nda nataa sa boe. De Petrus nae, “Malangga, dei! Te atahori hetar rakaseseti onaꞌ ia! Neꞌo mana ratimba mia dꞌeaꞌ rema.”
46 “Somebody touched me,” said Jesus; “for I felt that power had gone out from me.”
Te Yesus olaꞌ no e nae, “Hokoꞌ! Au medꞌa koasa kalua mia Au e. Dadꞌi Au uhine atahori esa sangaja kois Au.”
47 Then the woman, when she saw that she was discovered, came forward trembling, and threw herself down before him; and, in the presence of all the people, she told him her reason for touching him, and that she had been cured instantly.
Leleꞌ naa inaꞌ a nahine nae eni nda naꞌafuniꞌ nala sa, boe ma namatau seli. Ana nggeꞌe-nggeꞌe, de sendeꞌ lululanggan neu Yesus matan. De ana dui saa manadadꞌi neu e sia basa atahori hetar matan. Boe ma nafadꞌe nae, eni kois Yesus boe ma, eni hai neuꞌ ena.
48 “Daughter,” he said, “your faith has delivered you. Go, and peace be with you.”
Boe ma Yesus olaꞌ no e nae, “Feto ngge! Ho hai, huu mumuhere Au. Baliꞌ mo sodꞌa-moleꞌ ena!”
49 Before he had finished speaking, some one came from the house of the President of the Synagogue and said: “Your daughter is dead! Do not trouble the Teacher further.”
Leleꞌ Yesus feꞌe olaꞌ no inaꞌ naa, ma Yairus atahorin esa nema nafadꞌe nae, “Aduu, Amaꞌ, e! Amaꞌ anan nese ena! Ana mate ena, dadꞌi sudꞌi boe neꞌebꞌebꞌenggeꞌ Ama Meser fai.”
50 But Jesus, hearing this, spoke to the President: “Do not be afraid; only have faith, and she shall yet be delivered.”
Te leleꞌ Yesus rena atahori naa dudꞌuin, boe ma Ana olaꞌ no Yairus nae, “Aꞌa! Subꞌa-subꞌaꞌ a! Afiꞌ dꞌuꞌa-dꞌuꞌa! Mumuhere neuꞌ a Lamatualain. Mana fee masodꞌaꞌ neu aꞌa anan.”
51 When he reached the house, he did not allow any one to go in with him, except Peter, John, and James, and the child’s father and mother.
Leleꞌ ara losa Yairus umen, atahori sofe ume ena. Ara nggae ei-ei. Boe ma Yesus ai se nae, “Ama sudꞌi boe nggae fai! Anaꞌ ia nda mate sa. Ana sungguꞌ a!” Te atahori ra mali rapepenggo bafa nara neu E, huu sira rita no mata nara anaꞌ a etu hahaen. Basa ma Yesus noꞌe anaꞌ a ama-ina nara, Petrus, Yohanis, no Yakobis, rala reu ro E. Laen ra Ana denu rahani siaꞌ a dꞌeaꞌ.
52 And every one was weeping and mourning for her. “Do not weep,” Jesus said, “she is not dead; she is asleep.”
53 They began to laugh at him, for they knew that she was dead.
54 But, taking her by the hand, Jesus said in a loud voice: “Child, rise!”
Ara rala reu, boe ma Yesus toꞌu anaꞌ a liman, de noꞌe nae, “Nona, e! Fela leo!”
55 The child’s spirit returned to her, and she instantly stood up; and Jesus ordered them to give her something to eat.
Aibꞌoiꞌ ma, anaꞌ naa nasodꞌa baliꞌ, de fela neuꞌ ena. De Yesus denu ana fetoꞌ naa maman nae, “‘Fee anaꞌ ia naa leo!”
56 Her parents were amazed, but Jesus impressed on them that they were not to tell any one what had happened.
Anaꞌ a ina-ama nara heran rala seli. Te Yesus fee nesenedꞌaꞌ neu se, fo afiꞌ dui-bꞌengga dalaꞌ ia neu atahori ra.
