Luqaassa 12
1 He wode daro derey ba giddon issay issara yedhistana gakanas shiiqi uttidashe Yesussay bena kaallizayta “Farsawista irshofe naagettite, hessikka lo7o qoodheppe qommo hano” gides.
Meanwhile the people had gathered in thousands, so that they trod upon one another, when Jesus, addressing himself to his disciples, began by saying to them: “Be on your guard against the leaven — that is, the hypocrisy — of the Pharisees.
2 Qoncconta kamettidi attizaynne erettonta qotan attannay baa.
There is nothing, however covered up, which will not be uncovered, nor anything kept secret which will not become known.
3 Hessa gish inte geeman haasa7idazi wuri qoncce kezena, qassekka inte qol7an haythan sasukketi haasa7idazi wuri dere sinthan yootettana.
Hence all that you have said in the dark will be heard in the light, and what you have spoken in the ear, within closed doors, will be proclaimed upon the housetops.
4 Ta laggeto ta intes gizay asho xalla wodhanappe attin hara aykkokka oothanas dandda7ontaytas babbofite.
To you who are my friends I say, Do not be afraid of those who kill the body, but after that can do no more.
5 Gido attin inte babbaanas bessizay oonakkoone ta intes bessana asho wodhidape guye ashonne shemponne issife gathi gaanname taman yegganas danda7izaysa babitte. Ee izas babbite gays. (Geenna g1067)
I will show you of whom you should be afraid. Be afraid of him who, after killing you, has the power to fling you into the Pit. Yes, I say, be afraid of him. (Geenna g1067)
6 Gaashe kafo ichachchati nam77u santes bayzettettees, gido attin istafe issiniyokka Xoossi dogenna.
Are not five sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them has escaped God’s notice.
7 Inte hu7e ithikey kumeth taybboon dees. hessa gish babbofite, daro gaashe kafotappe inte aadhdhista.
No, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not be afraid; you are of more value than many sparrows.
8 T intes yooays “ta gish asa sinthan markatiza asa wursos asa nay qassekka Xoossa kiitancha sinthan iza gish markkttana.
Every one, I tell you, who shall acknowledge me before his fellow men, the Son of Man, also, will acknowledge before God’s angels;
9 Gido attin asa sinthan tana kadida uray Xoossa kiitancha sinthan izi kaddistana.
but he, who disowns me before his fellow men, will be altogether disowned before God’s angels.
10 Asa na bolla kawisha qaala haasa7iza uras naggaray wuri maaristana shin xillo ayanan cayiza uray maaretenna.
Every one who shall say anything against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but for him who slanders the Holy Spirit there will be no forgiveness.
11 Asay intena oykkidi dere haarizaytakkonne Godatizaytako mukurabe oykki efikko ay zarino ay giino gidi hirgofite.
Whenever they take you before the Synagogue Courts or the magistrates or other authorities, do not be anxious as to how you will defend yourselves, or what your defence will be, or what you will say;
12 Ays giiko inte haasa7ana koshizaysa xillo ayaanaay he wode intena tamaarsana.”
for the Holy Spirit will show you at the moment what you ought to say.”
13 Daro asa garsafe issi uray “tamaarisizayso ta ishay nu aawa lata miishshafe tana gakkizaysa taas immana mala izas yoota” gides.
“Teacher,” a man in the crowd said to Jesus, “tell my brother to share the property with me.”
14 Yesussaykka “hayso tana inte bolla pirdiza daanna oothiday oonee?” gides.
But Jesus said to him: “Man, who made me a judge or an arbiter between you?”
15 Qassekka istas “asas daro miish deyikkokka shemppoy he duretethan deyonta gish naagetite, yiiqqetethafe intena keehi naagite” gides.
And then he added: “Take care to keep yourselves free from every form of covetousness; for even in the height of his prosperity a man’s true Life does not depend on what he has.”
16 Zarethidikka qasse istas leemuso hiz gidi yottidees “lo7ethi kath immiza gade Goda gidida issi dure asi dees.
Then Jesus told them this parable — “There was once a rich man whose land was very fertile;
17 He addezzika ba wozinan (ta kaththa shishshada wothizassoy bayndda gish ay oothoo?) gidi qoppides.
and he began to ask himself ‘What shall I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops?
18 Addezzika (taas diza gootarata lalada hara aakkizaaz keexada kaththanne taas dizaz ubbaa izan shishshanna.
This is what I will do,’ he said; ‘I will pull down my barns and build larger ones, and store all my grain and my goods in them;
19 Ta shempiyokka ta shemppoye daro wodes gidiza kath shiishshida gish shemppa uttada ma, uya ufa7ista) gaana gides.
and I will say to myself, Now you have plenty of good things put by for many years; take your ease, eat, drink, and enjoy yourself.’
20 Gido attin (Xoossi haysso eeyazo ne shemppiyo hach omars neppe ekkana koyetes, hessa gish ne nees shiishshidays oonas gidanee?) gides.
But God said to the man ‘Fool! This very night your life is being demanded; and as for all you have prepared — who will have it?’
21 Hessa gish Xoossa achchan dure gidonta bees miishshe shiishshiza asa wursethikka hessa mala.”
So it is with those who lay by wealth for themselves and are not rich to the glory of God.”
22 Hessafe guye Yesussay bena kaallizaytas “intes ta yootays inte duusas ay maanakkonne, woykko inte bollas ay mayanaakkonne daro qoppofite.
And Jesus said to his disciples: “That is why I say to you, Do not be anxious about the life here — what you can get to eat; nor yet about your body — what you can get to wear.
23 Ays giiko shemppoy kaththafe asatethi qasse mayoppe aadhdhees.
For life is more than food, and the body than its clothes.
24 Quurota xellite zeretenna maaxetenna, kath shiishshiza gootaray istas baa shin Xoossi ista muzees. histtikko inte istafe keehi adhdheketii?
Think of the ravens — they neither sow nor reap; they have neither storehouse nor barn; and yet God feeds them! And how much more precious are you than birds!
25 Gido attin intefe darsi qoppidi ba laytha bolla issi gallas gujjana dandda7izay oonee?
But which of you, by being anxious, can prolong his life a moment?
26 Histtikko guutha miish oothooy intes dandda7etontashshe ays hara miishshas keehi qoppetii?
And, if you cannot do even the smallest thing, why be anxious about other things?
27 Ciishshati waanidi diccizaakkonne ane xellite, waayyettenna, suqettenna gido attin ta intes yootays Solomoneykka giita asa shin istafe issineytho maybeynna.
Think of the lilies, and how they grow. They neither toil nor spin; yet, I tell you, even Solomon in all his splendour was not robed like one of these.
28 Histtikko Xoossi hach beettiddi wonto taman wodhana maata hayssatho mayziza gidikko inteno amannoy paccidayto intena wosit aathi mayizanee?
If, even in the field, God so clothes the grass which is living to-day and to-morrow will be thrown into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, O men of little faith!
29 Hessa gish ay minoo ay maynoo giidi inte wozinay darsi qoppofo.
And you — do not be always seeking what you can get to eat or what you can get to drink; and do not waver.
30 Biitta bollan diza asi wuri hayssa koyees, gido attin hayssi wuri intes koshizayyssa inte salo aaway eres.
These are the things for which all the nations of the world are seeking, and your Father knows that you need them.
31 Wursofekka koyrothidi Xoossa kawotethi koyite hayssi wuri intes gujjeti imettanna.
No, seek his Kingdom, and these things shall be added for you.
32 Inteno guutha mehe wude mala gididayto kawotethi intes immanas inte aawa lo7o qofa gidida gish babbofite.
So do not be afraid, my little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the Kingdom.
33 Intes dizayssa bayziddi manqotas immite, kaysoy ekkonta son, bil77ay montason, cimonta korojjon wuronta miish salon shiishshite.
Sell what belongs to you, and give in charity. Make yourselves purses that will not wear out — an inexhaustible treasure in Heaven, where no thief comes near, or moth works ruin.
34 Inte wozinay inte miish dizason daana.
For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be.
35 qaqnthan gixxidi giigetite, inte poo7oykka poo77o,
Make yourselves ready, with your lamps alight;
36 Ista Goday bulachcha diggisappe simmidi yaanashe naagetizaytanne izi yiidi pengge qoxishin elle doyanas giigi uttida asata milatite.
and be like men who are waiting for their Master’s return from his wedding, so that, when he comes and knocks, they may open the door for him at once.
37 Ista Goday yiza wode dhiskonta naagidi uttida ashshkarati isti anjjettidayta, ta intes tumu gays ista Goday bees qaanthan gixxi eqqidi ista maaddan utisidi muzana.
Happy are those servants whom, on his return, the Master will find watching. I tell you that he will make himself ready, and bid them take their places at table, and will come and wait upon them.
38 Omars woykko gidi giddoth yiidi isti dhiskkonta dishin demmikko he ashshkarati anjjettidayta.
Whether it is late at night, or in the early morning that he comes, if he finds all as it should be, then happy are they.
39 Kaysoy ay wode yaanakkon eriza gididakko keeththa Goday kaysoy bookkishin co7u giidi besoonttayssa erite.
This you do know, that, had the owner of the house known at what time the thief was coming, he would have been on the watch, and would not have let his house be broken into.
40 Asa nay inte qopponta woden yanayisa eridi intekka giigetidi naagite.”
Do you also prepare, for when you are least expecting him the Son of Man will come.”
41 Phexirosaykka “Godo hayssa leemuso ne yootizay nuus xallaye wurso asasara yootizayii?” gides.
“Master,” said Peter, “are you telling this parable with reference to us or to every one?”
42 Godaykka “histtikko beso asas koshshiza woden quma immana mala keethaddey keeththa asa bolla wothiza amanettidda wozinama asi oonee?” giidi zaarides.
“Who, then,” replied the Master, “is that trustworthy steward, the careful man, who will be placed by his master over his establishment, to give them their rations at the proper time?
43 Goday simmiishni hessaththo oothishe beettizaddey izi anjjettidadde.
Happy will that servant be whom his master, when he comes home, shall find doing this.
44 Ta intes tumu gays bees diza miish wurso bolla he ura goddasna.
His master, I tell you, will put him in charge of the whole of his property.
45 Gido attin he uray ta Goday elle yeena gam7ana giidi qoppidi addenne macca ashshkarata bukkikko, qassekka koyida mala miidi uyidi mathotikko
But should that servant say to himself ‘My master is a long time coming,’ and begin to beat the menservants and the maidservants, and to eat and drink and get drunk,
46 he ura Goday izi qopponta gallassan yaana giidi sidhonta saatten yana. yiidikka iza qanxerethidi iza exa amanonttaytara issife oothanna.
that servant’s master will come on a day when he does not expect him, and at an hour of which he is unaware, and will flog him severely and assign him his place among the untrustworthy.
47 Be Goda qofa eridi giigetontaynne Goda shene oothonta ashshkaray iita shoch shocettana.
The servant who knows his master’s wishes and yet does not prepare and act accordingly will receive many lashes;
48 Gido attin eronta dishe shochas bessiza mooro oothida ashshkaray guuthara shocistana. Daro imetida asa wursofe daroy koyetes, daro haddara ekkida urappe daroy koyetes.
while one who does not know his master’s wishes, but acts so as to deserve a flogging, will receive but few. From every one to whom much has been given much will be expected, and from the man to whom much has been entrusted the more will be demanded.
49 Tani yiday biitta bollan tama eethanassa. He tamay ha7i eexxi kezidakko tana daro ufaysanashin.
I came to cast fire upon the earth; and what more can I wish, if it is already kindled?
50 Gido attin tani xamaqistana xinqatay dees, he xinqatay polistanashe tani keeha metotettadis.
There is a baptism that I must undergo, and how great is my distress until it is over!
51 Intes tani biitta bolla saro ehanna yida milatizee? Gideenna, ta intes yootays tani yiday issa issafe shaakanassa.
Do you think that I am here to give peace on earth? No, I tell you, but to cause division.
52 Haysafe sinthan issi keeththan ba giddon shaakettida ichachu asati daana. Nam77ati heezata bolla heezati nam77ata bolla denddidi ba garssan shaakistanna.
For from this time, if there are five people in a house, they will be divided, three against two, and two against three.
53 Aaway ba attumma na bolla, attumma naykka ba aawa bolla, aaya ba macca nay bolla maca nayakka ba aayeyi bolla, bolota ba na machchey bolla, na machaka ba boloti bolla denddidi ba garsan shaakistana.
‘Father will be opposed to son and son to father, mother to daughter and daughter to mother, mother-in-law to her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law to her mother-in-law.’”
54 Qassekka derezas “inte awa arshey mokiza bagara shaaray kezishin beyidi elleraka iray yana gees geista inte gida malaka hanes.
And to the people Jesus said: “When you see a cloud rising in the west, you say at once ‘There is a storm coming,’ and come it does.
55 Duge baggara pude carkishshin gallassay ho7o gidana geista, inte gida malaka hanes.
And when you see that the wind is in the south, you say ‘It will be burning hot,’ and so it proves.
56 Inteno lo7o milatiza iitato saloysanne sa7a medha beyidi hananayisa ereista shin histini ha wodeza eroy intena waani xoonizee?
Hypocrites! You know how to judge of the earth and the sky; how is it, then, that you cannot judge of this time?
57 Histikko inte ays tuma firdeketii?
Why do not you yourselves decide what is right?
58 Ne morkera daana sinthan eqqana bishin buro oge bollan dashe izara giigana oge maqqa, ne histonta agikko nena gochchidi daana sinth efana, daannaykka nena aathiddi halaqas immana, halaqaykka nena woynen yeggana.
When, for instance, you are going with your opponent before a magistrate, on your way to the court do your best to be quit of him; for fear that he should drag you before the judge, then the judge will hand you over to the bailiff of the court, and the bailiff throw you into prison.
59 Ta nees yootays daannay firdida wursetha santime qanxa wursana gakanas heepe kezaka.”
You will not, I tell you, come out until you have paid the very last farthing.”
