Ruku 14

1 Mago mani fruhu knazupa (Sabati) Jisasi'a Farisi kva ne'mofo nompi ne'za nenaku vuno umani'nege'za, nankna hugahie hu'za zamagra kete'za mani'naze.

Then it happened, when He entered the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees to eat bread on the Sabbath, that they were watching Him closely.

2 Ana higeno avuga mago nera avufga zore krimo azeri haviza hu'nea ne' mani'ne.

And then, there in front of Him was a man who had dropsy!

3 Kasegere ugota hu'naza vahe ene, Farisi vahera Jisasi'a anage huno zmantahigene. Mani fruhu knazupa (Sabat) knare vahera zamazeri so'e hugahumpi osugahune?

And Jesus reacted by saying to the lawyers and Pharisees, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”

4 Hianagi zamagra ke osu manizageno, ana nera avufare azerino kri'a azeri so'e huteno huntegeno vu'ne.

But they kept silent. So He took hold of him, healed him, and let him go.

5 Ana huteno anage huno zamasami'ne, Inamoka mofavrekamo'o bulimakao afukamo ti afi kerifi uraminenigenka, mani fruhu (Sabati) knazupa ame hunka ome avare anaga otegahano?

Then He addressed them saying, “Which of you, if a son or an ox falls into a pit, will not immediately pull him out on the Sabbath day?”

6 Zamagra ana kemofo nona'a hugara osu'naze.

And they could not answer Him regarding these things.

7 Jisasi'a kegeno ne'za nehogu ke hazage'za e'naza vahe'mo'za, ra zamagima eri trateke emanizageno, Jisasi'a anage huno fronka kea zamasami'ne.

Then He told a parable to those who were invited, having observed how they kept trying for the best places, saying to them:

8 Mago'a vahe'mo'ma, tamagri'ma ke hanigetma arave hu nezantema vanutma, ra agima ami tratera uomaniho. Na'ankure mago vahera tamagri'ma tamagatere'nesia vahera kea hu'nesigu'enene.

“Whenever you are invited by someone to a wedding feast, do not recline in the place of honor, in case someone more honorable than you has been invited by him;

9 Hagi ana taregamota tanagi hu'nesimo eno, traka'a ama ne' amio huno hanigenka, kagazegu nehunka atrenka refarega umanigahane.

then he who invited you both will come and say, ‘You, give this man place!’ and then, with shame, you start to take the lowest place.

10 Tamagima hanigetma vanutma henka trate umani'nenkeno, tamagima higeta vu'nazamo'ma esuno'a, anage huno hugahie. Ronenimota, enagagateho hanigetma, maka trate'ma mani'naza vahe zmufina ra tmagia erigahaze.

Rather, whenever you are invited, go and recline in the lowest place, so that when your host comes, he may say to you, ‘Friend, move up higher.’ Then you will have honor in the presence of your fellow guests.

11 Na'ankure maka vahe'mo'za zmavufga ra hanamokizmia, Anumzamo'a zamazeri fenka tregahie. Hianagi zamagra zmavufga anteramisamokizmia, Anumzamo'a zamazeri sga hugahie.

Because everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”

12 Anage nehuno, ne'za nehoguma ke hige'za e'naza kva nera asamino, ra ne'za kresnunka roneka'ane, kafu kaganahe'ine, vaheka'ane afufeno zimine vahe'ene zamagrike zamagi osuo. Ru ana vahe'mo'za kagri'enena ke hu'za nona hu'za kamisagenka mizanka'a erigahane.

Then He said directly to His host: “Whenever you give a dinner or a supper, do not invite your friends, nor your brothers, nor your relatives, nor rich neighbors, lest they also invite you back, and you be repaid.

13 Hu'neanagi ra nezama retroma nehanunka, zmunte omne vahe'ene, agia aza stinesia vahe'ene, aga havizahu vahe'ene, avusu hu'nesnia vahe kea huge'za eho.

But whenever you make a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind;

14 E'inahu vahe'mo'za nona hu'za kamigara osu'nazankinka, kagra asomu erigahane. Na'ankure fatgo vahe'mo'za frinesafintima otisaza knazupa mizanka'a erigahane.

and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you—you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.”

15 Mago'mo nezane trate zamaza tununte mani'nafinti ana kema hia nentahino, anage huno Jisasina asmi'ne. Maka vahe'mo'za Anumzamofo Kumapima bretima nesamo'za asomu erigahaze!

Well when one of the fellow-recliners heard these things, he said to Him, “Blessed is he who will eat dinner in the Kingdom of God!”

16 Hianagi Jisasi'a ana kemofo nona'a anage huno asmi'ne, Mago ne'mo'a ra ne'za retro huteno hakarea vea ana nezante eho huno ke hu'ne. (Mat 22:1-10)

So He said to him: “A certain man prepared a great banquet and invited many.

17 Ne'zama nesaza kna egeno, kazokzo eri'za vahe'a hunteno, koma zamagi hu'noa vahete vunka eho hunka ome zamasamio. Na'ankure nezantamia hago retro huramante'ne hunka ome zmasamige'za eho.

And at meal time he sent his slave to say to those who were invited, ‘Come, because everything is now ready.’

18 Hianagi maka'mo'za hu'za tasunku hunanki, eri'zanti me'ne hu'naze. Ese'mo'a anage huno ana kazokzo eriza nera asmi'ne. Nagra mago mopa mizasenoa ome kegahuankina, nasunku huanki ovugahue.

But they all alike began to make excuses. The first said to him: ‘I bought a field, and I need to go and see it. I ask you to have me excused.’

19 Anante'mo'a anage hu'ne, 10ni'a hoza eri bulimakao miza sentenorega vu'na ome avame ante'na kegahuankina, nasunku huanki omegahue.

Another said: ‘I bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to test them. I ask you to have me excused.’

20 Anante'mo'a anage hu'ne, meni ara eri'noanki'na omegahue.

Yet another said, ‘I have married a wife, and so I cannot come.’

21 Ana kazokzo eriza ne'mo rukrehe huno kva'amofonte eno eme asmi'geno, kva nemo'a rimpa hegeno, ana kazokzo eri'za nera anage huno asmi'ne. Ame hunka ra kumamofo osi kampine ra kampine nevunka, afufenozmi omne'nesnia vahe'ene, zmagia zamaza stinesia vahe'ene, zamaga haviza hu'nesnaza vahe'ene, zamavu asu hu'nesnia vahe'ene zamavarenka amare eno huno hunte'ne.

So that slave came and reported these things to his master. Then the owner of the house became angry and said to his slave, ‘Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in here the poor and crippled and blind and lame.’

22 Anante kazokzo eri'za ne'mo'a huno kva'nimoka, kema hunantanazana hago huanagi nompina mago'a kankamuna me'ne higeno,

And the slave said, ‘Master, what you ordered has been done, and there is still room.’

23 kva ne'mo'a anage huno kazokzo eri'za nera asmi'ne. Atiraminka ranra kampine nomofo kegina kante vunka tutu hunka ome zmasamige'za, e'za noni'afina emani aviteho.

Then the master said to the slave: ‘Go out to the roads and hedges and make people come in, so that my house may be filled.

24 Na'ankure Nagra anage hu'na negasamue, magore hu'za ko'ma zamagima hu'noa vahe'mo'za, nezani'afintira onetfa hugahaze.

For I tell you that none of those men who were invited will get a taste of my banquet!’”

25 Jisasina tusi'a vea krerfamo'za amage avaririza nevazageno, rukrehe huno amanage huno zamasmi'ne.

Now large crowds were traveling with Him, and turning He said to them:

26 Mago'mo Nagrite enaku nehuno, nefane nererane a'amofone, mofavre'ane afuhe'ine, asarehe'ine, agra'agu'enema ha'ma reontesimo'a, Nagri disaipol omanigahie.

“If anyone comes to me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple.

27 Iza'o agra'a keka zafa erigofino Nagri namage omesimo'a, Nagri disaipol omanigahie.

And whoever does not carry his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.

28 Iza'o tmagripintima zaza noma kinaku hanuno'a, kotazana manineno nama'a zagonu nona ki vagaregahue huno refako huno keteno nona kino.

“Further, which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and calculate the cost, whether he has enough to complete it?

29 Za'za no kinaku eri agafa huno tra'a tro hunteteno, kivaga oresigeno, kesnaza vahe'mo'za hunte'za agiza nere'za,

This so he does not lay a foundation without being able to finish, and all who see it begin to ridicule him,

30 ama ne'mo'a knare huno nona agafa hianagi, nona kivagaregara osie hu'za hugahaze.

saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish!’

31 Hagi mago kini ne'mo'ma, mago kini ne'ma ha'ma ome huntenakura, esera mani'neno antahino nagrira 10 tauseni'a sondia vaheni'a maninazankita 20 tauseni'a sondia vahe'mo'zama ha'ma eme hurantesaza vahera zmageteregahumpi, zmagete oregahune huno refko huno nege.

“Or what king, going to engage another king in battle, does not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet the one coming against him with twenty thousand?

32 Ha'ma agateregama osnuno'a, ha' vahe'amoma afete ne-esigeno, agra mago'a vahe huzmantenke'za vu'za agri agi eriza magoaza ome huhampri nezmante'za ha'ma osu'za zamarimpa fru hu'za manisagu ome asmigahaze.

And if not, while the other is still far away he sends a delegation and asks for terms for peace.

33 Ana hu'negu mago'mo'e huno, mikozama'amofo amagena huomisimo'a, Nagri disaipol omanigahie.

“So likewise, any of you who does not renounce all his own possessions cannot be my disciple.

34 Hagemo'a knare hu'neanagi, haga'ama omnena, ete inankna huno haga'a erigahie?

Salt is good; but should the salt become insipid, with what can it be seasoned?

35 E'i haviza hu'neno mopamofonena masevena amigara osu'neankino, atresigeno amnezankna hugahie. Iza'o agesa me'nenigeno nentahisimo'a, atregeno agesa antahise hino.

It is fit for neither soil nor fertilizer; it is thrown out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”
