Lukha 16
1 U Yisu avavulile khange avakhongi vamwene vamwene, “Pale nu munu umo unkhavi nu vavaha avulilwe ukhuta umbaha uyu inangaviya ikyuma kya mwene.
And he said also to his disciples: There was a certain rich man who had a steward: and the same was accused unto him, that he had wasted his goods.
2 Pu unkhavi akhamwilanga akhambula, “Khinukhi ikhi nipulikha khulyuve? Humya imbalilo incha mbaha vakho, ulwakhuva sawiwesya ukhuva mbaha lino.'
And he called him, and said to him: How is it that I hear this of thee? give an account of thy stewardship: for now thou canst be steward no longer.
3 Umbaha ula akhanchova munumbula mumwene, Nivombe khikhi, uvunonu wa ntwa vango ikhung'encha mu mbombo yango iya vuvaha? Nelivuvule amakha aga khulima nu khudova dova nevona soni.
And the steward said within himself: What shall I do, because my lord taketh away from me the stewardship? To dig I am not able; to beg I am ashamed.
4 Nelulumanyile eliyakhiva nie vomba upuyakhiva vikhung'e ncha mu mbombo yango iya vuloleli uwa vanu pu avene va ng'egelenche mu mbunchenge wa vene.
I know what I will do, that when I shall be removed from the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.
5 Pu umbaha va vuloleli akhavilanga avanyamikolegwia ntwa va mwene, akhambula uva khwancha, 'vudayiwa ilingi nu ntwa vango?'
Therefore calling together every one of his lord’s debtors, he said to the first: How much dost thou owe my lord?
6 Akhanchova ifipimilo khinchigo ifya mono, akhambula 'tola ilikhuratasi uvige “50” hamsini.”
But he said: An hundred barrels of oil. And he said to him: Take thy bill and sit down quickly, and write fifty.
7 hange ambula uyunge nuve ulinilikhole ilingi?' akhanchova akhata nilinilikhole ilya fipimo “100” ifya vutineuwa ngano.' Akhambula akhatatola ikyandikhilo wandikhe “80”.'
Then he said to another: And how much dost thou owe? Who said: An hundred quarters of wheat. He said to him: Take thy bill, and write eighty.
8 Pu untwa akhagwiya umbaha umbivi vu avombile khu vala avanyamakhole. Ulwakhuva avana va khilunga ikhi valinu luhala ukhulutilila nu khuvomba khuluhala ulwa pakyanya pu avanu avaluvafu ulwa vene valipakyanya pa vanya lumuli. (aiōn g165)
And the lord commended the unjust steward, forasmuch as he had done wisely: for the children of this world are wiser in their generation than the children of light. (aiōn g165)
9 Nune nikhuvavula mwivombelage ukhuva na vayinyikhu kyuma ikya vuviviukhuta puyakhiva sawipata vavahegelenche khu vutavuo uwa sikhu nchoni. (aiōnios g166)
And I say to you: Make unto you friends of the mammon of iniquity; that when you shall fail, they may receive you into everlasting dwellings. (aiōnios g166)
10 Uviale vaviyilweli khuvudebe iva vayilweli khuvu vaha. na aliye dhalimu katika lililo dogo huwa dhalimu katika lililo kubwa pia.
He that is faithful in that which is least, is faithful also in that which is greater: and he that is unjust in that which is little, is unjust also in that which is greater.
11 Ingave umwe samkhali vayilweli khu kyuma ikya vuvivi pu veni iva vayelweli khu kyuma ikya lweli?
If then you have not been faithful in the unjust mammon; who will trust you with that which is the true?
12 Pu ingave mukhale vasita khuva vayilweli pa khu vombela ikyuma kya munu uyunge veni uviyakhiva ikhuvapa ikhiyakhiva ikhuvapa ikhikhivile khinyo yumwe?
And if you have not been faithful in that which is another’s; who will give you that which is your own?
13 Asikhuli umbomba mbombo uviiwesya ukhuvavombela avatwa vavili, ulwakhuva ayigugane yumo nu khusula uyunge nu khwiyibata nuyu nu khubeda uyu. Samukhawesye ukhumombela Unguluve ne kyuma.”
No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.
14 Pu Avafalisayo vuvavo valikhunogwa ihela, pu vagapulikhe aga goni pu vakhabeda.
Now the Pharisees, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.
15 Pu akhavavula, “Umwe ukhuta mukhiginiya khuvulongolo khuvanu, pu Unguluve akhanchimanya inumbula nchetu. Ulwakhuva ilimikhiwe khu munu liva livivi khuvulongolo khwa Nguluve.
And he said to them: You are they who justify yourselves before men, but God knoweth your hearts; for that which is high to men, is an abomination before God.
16 Indagilo ncha vanyamalago nchale punchile vu uYohani vuinchile. Ukhuhuma usikhi ugwa imola inonu incha vutwa wa Nguluve ukwinchofancha, nu munu uvavenchaga igela ukhwigila khu makha.
The law and the prophets were until John; from that time the kingdom of God is preached, and every one useth violence towards it.
17 Ukhuva ikhilunga khipepe fihege ukhuhuma endagilo yimo yihege.
And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of the law to fall.
18 Uvi ikhundekha udala nu khugula uyunge nu khutola vatamaniyege iva aligwipe nukhuva indigu, nu yunge uvi ikhutola ula uvialekhilwe nu gosi, ivaindigu.
Every one that putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and he that marrieth her that is put away from her husband, committeth adultery.
19 Khwale nu munu umo utayili afwalile iyenda igya mavuva igi ngaladikha igya zambarau ne kitani ikhi nonu, pu alikhuhovokha imisikhi gyoni nu vukhavi wa mwene uvuvaha.
There was a certain rich man, who was clothed in purple and fine linen; and feasted sumptuously every day.
20 Nu ganchu umo ilitawa lya mwene ele vi Lazaro avikhiwe pa ndyango ugwa tayili, pu ale ni fikhoho.
And there was a certain beggar, named Lazarus, who lay at his gate, full of sores,
21 Pu umwene anogwagwa ukhulya amalagalila agagwile pasi aga fyakhulya pa mesa iya tayili uchili khu myianga ifikho ho ifya uganchu.
Desiring to be filled with the crumbs that fell from the rich man’s table, and no one did give him; moreover the dogs came, and licked his sores.
22 Pu ula uganchu akhefwa nu khutoliwa nu unsuhwa nu khumbikha khukhifwa ikya Ibrahimu pu khifwa ikya Irahimu. Pu utayili vope akhafwa nu khusyila.
And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham’s bosom. And the rich man also died: and he was buried,
23 Na khuvufwe vuigatanchiwa nu vugatale, akhalola amiho khu kyanya akhambona uIrahamu khuvutale nu Lazaro pa khifuva ikya Irahimu. (Hadēs g86)
in hell. And lifting up his eyes when he was in torments, he saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom: (Hadēs g86)
24 Akhalila akhanchova, 'Dada rahamu, umbonele ikhisa, usuhe uLazaro anyofye ikhimelelencha ikya fikhonche mumagasi, ahovosye ululimi lwango; ulwakhuva ni gatanchiwa nu mwoto ugu.
And he cried, and said: Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, to cool my tongue: for I am tormented in this flame.
25 Pu Brahamu akhanchova, 'Mwanavango usage imbukhulilo wakho uvombile imbombo ilingi ivinonu, nu Lazaro nave apilile amavivi. Lino alyapa ihekhela, nuve pu vugatanchiwa.
And Abraham said to him: Son, remember that thou didst receive good things in thy lifetime, and likewise Lazareth evil things, but now he is comforted; and thou art tormented.
26 Khu goni ago khuvikhiwe iliguli ilivaha nu vutale pa gati, ukhuta avinogwa ukhuhuma nu khulovokha, ukhwivicha khulyumwe valemwage na va khulyumwe vope valemwage ukhwincha ukhwa.'
And besides all this, between us and you, there is fixed a great chaos: so that they who would pass from hence to you, cannot, nor from thence come hither.
27 Utayili akhanchova, 'Nukhudova Dada Brahamu, nikhukhudova usuhe khukha khwa dada vango
And he said: Then, father, I beseech thee, that thou wouldst send him to my father’s house, for I have five brethren,
28 khu khaya khuvale avalukholo lwango vahano ukhuta avavunge khuluvipi ukhuta vope yuvikhwincha khunu, khulivupala fincho, valekhe ukhwincha. '
That he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torments.
29 Pu u Brahamu akhanchova, 'Khuvale avanyamalago nu Mose vilekhelwe vavapulehinchage avo.
And Abraham said to him: They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
30 Pu untayili akhanchova, 'asikhuli, Dada uBrahamu, lino ingave umunu ihuma khuvunchukha pu ya vipela.'
But he said: No, father Abraham: but if one went to them from the dead, they will do penance.
31 Pu Brahamu akhavavula, 'vangave savikhuvapulikha avo uMose na vanyamalago savakhidikhe nela pwu hume umunu khuvunchukha savakhawesye ukhupulikha.
And he said to him: If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they believe, if one rise again from the dead.
