Luk 17
1 Ọ sịrị ndị na-eso ụzọ ya, “Ihe ndị nke na-eme ka mmadụ jehie aghaghị ịdị, ma ahụhụ ga-adịrị onye ọbụla ọnọdụ ndị a ga-esi nʼaka ya bịa.
And he said to his disciples, It is impossible for the stumbling-blocks not to come, but woe to him through whom they come!
2 Ọ ga-akara gị mma ka e kenye gị nkume igwe nri nʼolu, tụnye gị nʼime oke osimiri, karịa na ị ga-eduhie otu nʼime ụmụntakịrị ndị a ụzọ.
It is better for him if a donkey-powered millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble.
3 Kpachapụrụnụ onwe unu anya! “Ọ bụrụ na nwanna gị e mejọọ gị, baara ya mba. Ọ bụrụ na o chegharịa, gbaghara ya.
Take heed to yourselves. And if thy brother should sin against thee, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him.
4 Ọ bụrụkwa na o mejọọ gị ugboro asaa nʼotu ụbọchị, rịọkwa gị ugboro asaa sị, ‘E chegharịala m,’ ị ghaghị ịgbaghara ya.”
And if he should sin against thee seven times in the day, and seven times in the day turn back, saying, I repent, thou will forgive him.
5 Ndị ozi ya sịrị ya, “Onyenwe anyị, mee ka okwukwe anyị dị ukwuu!”
And the apostles said to the Lord, Increase faith for us.
6 Onyenwe anyị zara, “Ọ bụrụ na unu nwere okwukwe nke ha ka mkpụrụ mọstaadị, unu nwere ike ị sị osisi ukwu a, Ka e site na mgbọrọgwụ hopu gị ma kụọkwa gị nʼime oke osimiri, ọ ga-erubere unu isi.
And the Lord said, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard plant, ye would say to this sycamine tree, Be thou uprooted and be planted in the sea, and it would have obeyed you.
7 “Ọ bụ onye nʼime unu nke nwere ohu onye si ebe ọ gara rụọ ọrụ maọbụ ịzụ atụrụ lọbata, ga-asị ya, ‘Mee ngwangwa nọdụ ala rie nri’?
But which of you having a bondman plowing or feeding livestock, who, when he comes in from the field, will straightaway say, After coming near, sit down?
8 Ọ gaghị asị ya, ‘Siere m nri ọsịịsọ, kwadoo onwe gị jere m ozi ka m na-eri na aṅụkwa ihe ọṅụṅụ; emesịa ị ga-eri nri ma ṅụọ ihe ọṅụṅụ nke gị’?
Will he not rather say to him, Prepare what I may dine, and having gird thyself, serve me until I eat and drink, and after these things thou will eat and drink?
9 Ọ ga-ekele ohu ahụ nʼihi na ọ rụrụ ọrụ o kwesiri ịrụ?
Does he have a favor for that bondman because he did the things that were commanded? I think not.
10 Nʼotu aka ahụ, mgbe unu rụchara ọrụ niile unu kwesiri ịrụ, ihe unu ga-ekwu bụ, ‘Anyị bụ ụmụ ohu na-ekwesighị ekwesi, anyị emeela ihe anyị kwesiri ime.’”
Thus ye also, when ye did all the things that were commanded you, say, We are unprofitable bondmen, because we have done what we are obligated to do.
11 Ka ọ na-aga Jerusalem, o sitere nʼụzọ dị nʼagbata Sameria na Galili.
And it came to pass as he went to Jerusalem, that he was passing through the middle of Samaria and Galilee.
12 Mgbe ọ banyere nʼotu obodo nta, ndị ekpenta iri sitere nʼebe dị anya zute ya.
And as he entered into a certain village, ten leprous men who stood from afar met him.
13 Ha tiri mkpu nʼoke olu sị, “Jisọs nna anyị ukwuu, mere anyị ebere.”
And they raised a voice, saying, Jesus, Master, be merciful to us.
14 Mgbe ọ hụrụ ha, ọ sịrị ha, “Gaanụ gosi ndị nchụaja onwe unu.” Dị ka ha na-aga, e mere ka ha dị ọcha.
And when he saw them, he said to them, After departing, display yourselves to the priests. And it came to pass, during their going they were cleansed.
15 Mgbe otu nʼime ha chọpụtara na a gwọọla ya, ọ laghachiri azụ, jiri oke olu na-eto Chineke.
And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back with a great voice glorifying God.
16 Ọ dara nʼala nʼụkwụ ya, kelee ya. Ọ bụ onye Sameria.
And he fell upon his face beside his feet giving him thanks. And he was a Samaritan.
17 Jisọs jụrụ sị, “Ọ bụghị mmadụ iri ka e mere ka ha dị ọcha, ebeekwanụ ka itoolu ndị ọzọ nọ?
And having answered, Jesus said, Were not the ten cleansed? But where are the nine?
18 Ọ bu naanị onye mba ọzọ a lọghachiri inye Chineke otuto?”
Were there none found who returned to give glory to God, except this foreigner?
19 Mgbe ahụ, ọ sịrị ya, “Bilie, laa, okwukwe gị agwọọla gị.”
And he said to him, After rising, go. Thy faith has healed thee.
20 Ma mgbe ndị Farisii jụrụ ya sị, Olee mgbe alaeze Chineke ga-abịa? O kwuru, “Ọbịbịa alaeze Chineke agaghị a bụ nʼụzọ a ga-eji anya efu hụ ya.
And questioned by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God comes, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God does not come with observation,
21 Ha agaghịkwa asị, ‘Lee, ọ nọ nʼebe a,’ maọbụ, ‘nʼebe ahụ,’ nʼihi nʼezie, alaeze Chineke nọ nʼetiti unu.”
nor will they say, Lo, here! or, Lo, there! For behold, the kingdom of God is inside of you.
22 Mgbe ahụ, ọ gwara ndị na-eso ụzọ ya, “Oge na-abịa mgbe ọ ga-agụsi unu agụụ ike ịhụ otu nʼime ụbọchị nke Nwa nke Mmadụ, ma unu agaghị ahụ ya.
And he said to the disciples, The days will come when ye will long to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye will not see it.
23 Ha ga-asị unu, ‘Lee, nʼebe ahụ,’ maọbụ, ‘Lee, nʼebe a,’ unu agala, unu esokwala ha.
And they will say to you, Lo, here! Lo, there! Do not depart, nor pursue.
24 Nʼihi na Nwa nke Mmadụ nʼụbọchị ya ga-adị ka amụma nke eluigwe nke na-enye ìhè na mbara eluigwe site nʼotu ebe ruo nʼebe nke ọzọ.
For just as the lightning, its flashing from under the sky to under the sky, illuminates, so will the Son of man be in his day.
25 Ma ọ ghaghị ibu ụzọ hụọ ọtụtụ ahụhụ, ọgbọ a ga-ajụkwa ya.
But first it is necessary for him to suffer many things and be rejected from this generation.
26 “Dị ka ọ dị nʼụbọchị Noa, otu a ka ọ ga-adịkwa nʼụbọchị Nwa nke Mmadụ.
And just as it happened in the days of Noah, so also it will be in the days of the Son of man.
27 Ha nọ na-eri na-aṅụ, na-alụ nwunye na-ekekwa ụmụ ha di, ruo mgbe Noa banyere nʼụgbọ mmiri. Oke iju mmiri ahụ bịakwara laa ha nʼiyi.
They ate, they drank, they married, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.
28 “Otu a ka ọ dịkwa nʼoge Lọt. Ha nọ na-eri, na-aṅụ, na-azụrịtakwa ahịa, na-akụ mkpụrụ, na-arụkwa ụlọ.
And likewise as it happened in the days of Lot. They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built.
29 Ma nʼụbọchị ahụ Lọt si nʼobodo Sọdọm pụta, ọkụ na nkume dị ọkụ sitere nʼeluigwe zoo ka mmiri, laa ha niile nʼiyi.
But in that day Lot went out from Sodom he rained fire and brimstone from the sky, and destroyed them all.
30 “Otu a ka ọ ga-adịkwa nʼụbọchị a ga-eme ka Nwa nke Mmadụ pụta ìhè.
It will be according to these things in that day the Son of man is revealed.
31 Nʼụbọchị ahụ, onye ọbụla nọ nʼelu ụlọ, ma ihe ya dị nʼime ụlọ, arịtukwala ịba nʼime ụlọ iburu ngwongwo ndị ahụ. Nʼotu aka ahụ, onye ọbụla nọ nʼubi, ya ghara ịlọghachita.
In that day, he who will be on the housetop, and his vessels in the house, let him not go down to take them up. And let him who is in the field likewise not return for the things behind.
32 Chetakwanụ nwunye Lọt.
Remember Lot's wife.
33 Onye ọbụla chọrọ iche ndụ ya nche ka ọ ga-efunarị, ma onye ọbụla na-atụfu ndụ ya ga-echebe ya.
Whoever will seek to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose it will keep it alive.
34 Asị m unu, nʼanyasị ahụ mmadụ abụọ ga-edina nʼotu akwa, a ga-ewepụ otu nʼime ha hapụ onye nke ọzọ.
I say to you, in that night there will be two in one bed. The one man will be taken, and the other man will be left.
35 Ụmụ nwanyị abụọ ga na-akwọ ọka nʼotu ebe, a ga-ewere otu ma hapụ nke ọzọ.”
Two will be grinding together. The one woman will be taken, and the other woman will be left.
36 Ụmụ nwoke abụọ ga-anọ nʼubi, a ga-ewere otu onye hapụ nke ọzọ.
This verse is not in the majority of the Greek manuscripts.
37 Ha jụrụ ya sị, “Olee ebe, Onyenwe anyị?” Ọ sịrị ha, “Ebe ọbụla ozu dị, ka udele na-ezukọta.”
And having answered, they say to him, Where, Lord? And he said to them, Where the body is, there the vultures will be gathered together.
