Luke 14
1 One day--it was a Sabbath--He was taking a meal at the house of one of the Rulers of the Pharisee party, while they were closely watching Him.
Guertha cedin halaber hura ethorri cenean Phariseuetaco principal baten etchera Sabbathoan bere refectionearen hartzera, hec gogoa emaiten baitzeraucaten.
2 In front of Him was a man suffering from dropsy.
Eta huná, guiçon hydropicobat cen haren aitzinean.
3 This led Jesus to ask the lawyers and Pharisees, "Is it allowable to cure people on the Sabbath?"
Orduan ihardesten çuela Iesusec erran ciecén Legueco doctorey eta Phariseuey, cioela, Sori da Sabbathoan sendatzea?
4 They gave Him no answer; so He took hold of the man, cured him, and sent him away.
Eta hec ichilic egon citecen, Eta harc hura harturic senda ceçan, eta igor ceçan.
5 Then He turned to them and said, "Which of you shall have a child or an ox fall into a well on the Sabbath day, and will not immediately lift him out?"
Eta ihardesten cerauela, erran ceçan, Ceinec çuetaric astoa edo idia putzura eror badaquió, eztu bertan hura idoquiren Sabbath egunean?
6 To this they could make no reply.
Eta ecin gauça hauén gainean ihardets ceçaqueoten.
7 Then, when He noticed that the invited guests chose the best seats, He used this as an illustration and said to them,
Erraiten cerauen halaber gomitatu içan ciradeney comparationebat, gogoatzen çuela nola lehen iarlekuéz hautatzen ciraden, ciostela,
8 "When any one invites you to a wedding banquet, do not take the best seat, lest perhaps some more honoured guest than you may have been asked,
Norbeitec dei açanean ezteyetara, ezadila iar lehen lekuan, guertha eztadin, hi baino ohoratuagobat harc deithu duen:
9 and the man who invited you both will come and will say to you, 'Make room for this guest,' and then you, ashamed, will move to the lowest place.
Eta ethorriric hura eta hi deithu çaituztenac erran dieçán, Emóc huni lekua: eta orduan has ezadin ahalquerequin azquen lekuaren eduquiten.
10 On the contrary, when you are invited go and take the lowest place, that when your host comes round he may say to you, 'My friend, come up higher.' This will be doing you honour in the presence of all the other guests.
Baina gomitatu aicenean, habil, iar adi azquen lekuan: dathorrenean hi gomitatu auenac erran dieçançat, Adisquideá, igan adi gorago: orduan duquec ohore hirequin mahainean iarriric daudenén aitzinean.
11 For whoever uplifts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be uplifted.
Ecen bere buruä goratzen duen gucia, beheraturen da: eta bere buruä beheratzen duena, goraturen da.
12 Also to His host, who had invited Him, He said, "When you give a breakfast or a dinner, do not invite your friends or brothers or relatives or rich neighbours, lest perhaps they should invite you in return and a requital be made you.
Eta bera gomitatu çuenari-ere erraiten ceraucan, Eguiten duanean barazcaribat edo affaribat, eztitzala dei eure adisquideac, ez eure anayeac, ez eure ahaideac, ez auço abratsac, hec ere aldiz bere aldetic gomita ezeçatençát, eta ordaina renda eztaquián.
13 But when you entertain, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind;
Baina eguiten duanean banquetbat, dei itzac paubreac, impotentac, mainguäc, itsuac:
14 and you will be blessed, because they have no means of requiting you, but there will be requital for you at the Resurrection of the righteous."
Eta dohatsu içanen aiz: ceren ezpaitute nondic hiri ordaina renda: ecen hiri rendaturen çaic ordaina iustoén resurrectionean.
15 After listening to this teaching, one of His fellow guests said to Him, "Blessed is he who shall feast in God's Kingdom."
Eta gauça hauc ençunic harequin mahainean iarriric ceudenetaric batec erran cieçón, Dohatsu duc Iaincoaren resumán ogui ianen duena.
16 "A man once gave a great dinner," replied Jesus, "to which he invited a large number of guests.
Eta harc erran cieçón, Guiçon batec eguin ceçan affari handibat, eta dei ceçan anhitz:
17 At dinner-time he sent his servant to announce to those who had been invited, "'Come, for things are now ready.'
Eta igor ceçan bere cerbitzaria affal ordutan, gomitatuey erraitera, Çatozte, ecen gauça guciac prest dirade.
18 "But they all without exception began to excuse themselves. The first told him, "'I have purchased a piece of land, and must of necessity go and look at it. Pray hold me excused.'
Baina guciac has citecen consentimendu batez excusatzen. Lehenac erran cieçón, Possessionebat erossi diat, eta haren ikustera ilki behar diat: othoitz eguiten drauat, eduqui neçac excusatutan.
19 "A second pleaded, "'I have bought five yoke of oxen, and am on my way to try them. Pray hold me excused.'
Eta berceac erran ceçan, Borz idi vztarri erossi citiat, eta banihoac hayén phorogatzera: othoitz eguiten drauat eduqui neçac excusatutan.
20 "Another said, "'I am just married. It is impossible for me to come.'
Eta berceac erran ceçan, Emazte hartu diat, eta halacotz ecin niathorrec.
21 "So the servant came and brought these answers to his master, and they stirred his anger. "'Go out quickly,' he said, 'into the streets of the city--the wide ones and the narrow. You will see poor men, and crippled, blind, lame: fetch them all in here.'
Eta itzuliric cerbitzari harc conta cietzón gauça hauc bere nabussiari. Orduan asserreturic aitafamiliác erran cieçón bere cerbitzariari, Habil fitetz placetara, eta hirico carriquetara, eta paubreac eta impotentac, eta mainguäc eta itsuac huna barnera erekar itzac.
22 "Soon the servant reported the result, saying, "'Sir, what you ordered is done, and there is room still.'
Eta erran ceçan cerbitzariac, Nabussiá, eguin içan duc, manatu duán beçala eta oraino baduc leku.
23 "'Go out,' replied the master, 'to the high roads and hedge-rows, and compel the people to come in, so that my house may be filled.
Orduan erran cieçón nabussiac cerbitzariari, Oha bidetara eta berroetara, eta bortchaitzac, sartzera bethe dadinçát ene etchea.
24 For I tell you that not one of those who were invited shall taste my dinner.'"
Ecen erraiten drauçuet, guiçon deithu içan ciraden hetaric batec-ere eztuela ene affaritic dastaturen.
25 On His journey vast crowds attended Him, towards whom He turned and said,
Eta gendetze handiac ioaiten ciraden harequin: eta itzuliric erran ciecén.
26 "If any one is coming to me who does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes and his own life also, he cannot be a disciple of mine.
Baldin nehor enegana ethorten bada eta gaitzesten ezpaditu bere aita eta amá, eta emaztea eta haourrac, eta anayeac eta arrebác, etare guehiago bere arima-ere, ecin date ene discipulu.
27 No one who does not carry his own cross and come after me can be a disciple of mine.
Eta norc-ere ezpaitacarque bere crutzea, eta ene ondoan ethorten ezpaita, ecin date ene discipulu.
28 "Which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not sit down first and calculate the cost, asking if he has the means to finish it? --
Ecen cein da çuetaric dorrebat edificatu nahi duenic, lehen iarriric gostuac contatzen eztituena, eya acabatzeco baduenez?
29 lest perhaps, when he has laid the foundation and is unable to finish, all who see it shall begin to jeer at him,
Fundamenta eçarri duqueen ondoan, eta ecin acabatu duqueenean, ikussiren duten guciac harçaz truffatzen has eztitecençát, dioitela,
30 saying, 'This man began to build, but could not finish.'
Guiçon hunec hassi du edificatzen eta ecin acabatu du.
31 Or what king, marching to encounter another king in war, does not first sit down and deliberate whether he is able with ten thousand men to meet the one who is advancing against him with twenty thousand?
Edo cein da reguea berce regue baten contra batailla emaitera abiatzen dena, lehen iarriric consultatzen eztuen, eya hamar millarequin aitzinera ilki ahal daquidionez, hoguey millarequin haren contra ethorten denari?
32 If not, while the other is still a long way off, he sends messengers and sues for peace.
Bercela hura oraino vrrun deno, embachadore igorriric baque esquez iarten da.
33 Just as no one of you who does not detach himself from all that belongs to him can be a disciple of mine.
Hala beraz, norc-ere çuetaric bere on guciac ezpaititu renuntiatzen hura ecin date ene discipulu.
34 "Salt is good: but if even the salt has become tasteless, what will you use to season it?
On da gatza: baina baldin gatza gueçat badadi, cerçaz gacituren da?
35 Neither for land nor dunghill is it of any use; they throw it away. Listen, every one who has ears to listen with!"
Ezta lurrecotzat, ez ongarricotzat deusgay: baina camporat egoizten da hura. Ençuteco beharriric duenac, ençun beca.
