Luuka 16
1 Jeesus jutustas oma jüngritele selle loo. „Elas kord üks rikas mees, kelle kojaülemat süüdistati oma isandale kuuluva vara raiskamises.
And he spoke a parable to his disciples. There was a certain rich man, who had a steward; and accusations were brought to him of him, that he squandered his property.
2 Seega kutsus rikas mees oma kojaülema ja küsis temalt: „Mida ma sinu kohta kuulen? Esita oma aruanded, sest sa ei jätka enam kojaülema ametis.“
And his lord called him, and said to him: What is this that I hear of thee? Render to me an account of thy stewardship; for thou canst no longer be my steward.
3 Kojaülem ütles endamisi: „Mida ma nüüd teen, kui mu isand kavatseb mu töölt lahti lasta? Ma pole piisavalt tugev, et kaevata, ning kerjata on mul häbi.
And the steward said with himself: What shall I do, since my lord is about to take from me the stewardship? To dig, I am unable; and to become a beggar, I am ashamed.
4 Ma tean, mida ma teen, et siis, kui mind kojaülema kohalt lahti lastakse, võtaksid inimesed mind hea meelega oma koju vastu.“
I know what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me to their houses.
5 Nõnda siis kutsus ta kõik need, kes tema isandale võlgu olid, enda juurde. Ta küsis esimeselt: „Kui palju sa mu isandale võlgu oled?“
And he called each one of his lord's debtors; and he said to the first, How much owest thou to my lord?
6 Mees vastas: „Sada mõõtu õli.“Ta ütles temale: „Istu ruttu maha. Võta oma võlakiri ja muuda see viiekümneks.“
And he said to him, One hundred measures of oil. And he said to him: Take thy bill, and sit down quickly, and write Fifty measures.
7 Siis küsis ta teiselt: „Kui palju sina võlgu oled?“Mees vastas: „Sada mõõtu nisu.“Ta ütles temale: „Võta võlakiri ja muuda see kaheksakümneks.“
And he said to another: And how much owest thou to my lord? And he said to him, One hundred cors of wheat. And he said to him: Take thy bill, and sit down, and write Eighty cors.
8 Rikas mees kiitis oma ebaausat kojaülemat tema leidliku idee eest. Selle maailma lapsed on üksteise suhtes leidlikumad kui valguse lapsed. (aiōn g165)
And our Lord praised the unrighteous steward, for having acted sagaciously: for the children of this world are more sagacious than the children of light, in this their generation. (aiōn g165)
9 Ma ütlen teile, kasutage selle maailma vara, et leida endale sõpru, nii et kui see on läbi, siis võetaks teid igavesse koju vastu. (aiōnios g166)
And I also say to you: Make to yourselves friends, with this unrighteous mammon; so that when it is finished, they may receive you to their everlasting tabernacles. (aiōnios g166)
10 Kui teie kätte võib usaldada väga vähest, võib teile usaldada ka palju; kui olete ebaausad vähesega, olete ebaausad ka paljuga.
He that is faithful in the little, is also faithful in the much; and he that is unjust in the little, is also unjust in the much.
11 Kui teid ei saa usaldada ilmaliku vara mõttes, kes usaldaks teile siis tõelise rikkuse?
If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will intrust to you the reality?
12 Ja kui teid ei saa usaldada sellega, mis kuulub kellelegi teisele, kes usaldaks siis teile teie oma?
And if ye have not been found faithful in that which is not yours, who will give to you that which is yours?
13 Üks sulane ei saa kuuletuda kahele isandale. Ta kas vihkab üht ja armastab teist või on pühendunud ühele ja põlgab teist. Te ei saa teenida mõlemat, Jumalat ja raha.“
There is no servant, who can serve two lords. For, either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will honor the one and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
14 Variserid, kes armastasid raha, kuulsid, mida Jeesus ütles, ja naersid tema üle.
And the Pharisees, when they heard all these things, because they loved money, derided him.
15 Aga Jeesus ütles neile: „Te paistate inimestele vagad, aga Jumal teab, mida te mõtlete. Jumal põlgab seda, mida inimesed kõrgelt hindavad.
And Jesus said to them: Ye are such as justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your heart: for that which is exalted among men, is abominable before God.
16 Seadusesse ja prohvetitesse kirjutatust jätkus Johanneseni. Sellest ajast alates on levitatud head sõnumit Jumala riigist ja kõik pingutavad, et sinna sisse minna.
The law and the prophets were until John: since then, the kingdom of God is proclaimed, and every one presseth it to enter in.
17 Kuid taeval ja maal on lihtsam lõppeda kui Seaduse väikseimal punktil kaduda.
And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one letter to pass from the law.
18 Iga mees, kes lahutab oma naisest ja abiellub teisega, rikub abielu, ning mees, kes abiellub lahutatud naisega, rikub abielu.
Whoever putteth away his wife, and taketh another, committeth adultery; and whoever taketh her that is put away, committeth adultery.
19 Elas kord üks mees, kes oli rikas. Ta kandis purpurrõivaid ja peenlinast ning nautis luksuslikku elu.
And there was a certain rich man, who was clothed in fine linen and scarlet, and passed every day in splendid luxury.
20 Tema värava juures istus enamasti üks kerjus nimega Laatsarus. Ta oli haavanditega kaetud
And there was a certain poor man, whose name was Lazarus; and he was laid at the gate of the rich man, smitten with ulcers.
21 ja soovis süüa rikka mehe laualt jäävaid jääke. Isegi koerad tulid ja lakkusid tema haavu.
And he desired to fill his belly with the fragments that fell from the rich man's table: and the dogs also came and licked his ulcers.
22 Siis kerjus suri ja inglid kandis ta Aabrahami juurde. Ka rikas mees suri ja maeti.
And so it was, that the poor man died; and angels transported him to Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died, and was buried.
23 Allilmas, kus ta oli piinades, vaatas ta üles ja nägi kaugelt Aabrahami ja Laatsarust tema kõrval. (Hadēs g86)
And being tormented in hell, he raised his eyes from afar off, and saw Abraham, and Lazarus in his bosom. (Hadēs g86)
24 „Isa Aabraham, “hüüdis ta, „halasta mu peale ja saada Laatsarus, et ta kastaks oma sõrme vette ja jahutaks mu keelt, sest ma hõõgun piinas.“
And he called with a loud voice, and said: Abraham, my father, have pity on me; and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and moisten my tongue; for, lo, I am tormented in this flame.
25 Aga Aabraham vastas: „Mu poeg, meenuta, et sa nautisid elus häid asju, samal ajal kui Laatsarusel oli väga kehv elu. Nüüd leiab tema lohutust, samas sina kannatad piinu.
And Abraham said to him: My son, remember, that thou receivedst thy good things in thy lifetime, and Lazarus his evil things: and now, behold he is here at rest, and thou art tormented.
26 Peale selle on meie ja teie vahel laiumas suur kuristik. Mitte keegi, kes tahab, ei saa minna siit üle sinna teie juurde, ja mitte keegi ei saa tulla üle sealt meie juurde.“
And with all these, there is a great barrier between us and you; so that they who would pass from here to you, cannot; neither can they pass from there to us
27 Rikas mees ütles: „Siis anun sind, isa, palun saada ta mu isa majja.
He said to him: I pray thee, therefore, my father, that thou wouldst send him to my father's house;
28 Sest mul on viis venda ja ta võib neid hoiatada, et nemadki ei lõpetaks siin piinapaigas.“
for I have five brothers; that he may go and protest to them; lest they also come to this place of torment.
29 Kuid Aabraham vastas: „Neil on Mooses ja prohvetid. Nad peaksid neid kuulama.“
Abraham said to him: They have Moses and the prophets, let them hear them.
30 „Ei, isa Aabraham, “ütles mees. „Aga nad parandaksid meelt, kui nende juurde läheks keegi surnutest!“
But he said to him: No, my father Abraham: but if one shall go to them from the dead, they will repent.
31 Aabraham ütles talle: „Kui nad ei kuula Moosest ja prohveteid, ei veena neid ka see, kui keegi surnuist tagasi tuleks.““
Abraham said to him: If they hear not Moses and the prophets, they will not believe, though one should rise from the dead.
