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.
He also said to his disciples, "There was a certain rich man who had a manager. An accusation was made to him that this man was wasting his possessions.
2 Pu unkhavi akhamwilanga akhambula, “Khinukhi ikhi nipulikha khulyuve? Humya imbalilo incha mbaha vakho, ulwakhuva sawiwesya ukhuva mbaha lino.'
He called him, and said to him, 'What is this that I hear about you? Give an accounting of your management, for you can no longer be manager.'
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.
"The manager said within himself, 'What will I do, seeing that my lord is taking away the management position from me? I do not have strength to dig. I am ashamed to beg.
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, so that when I am removed from management, 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?'
Calling each one of his lord's debtors to him, he said to the first, 'How much do you owe to my lord?'
6 Akhanchova ifipimilo khinchigo ifya mono, akhambula 'tola ilikhuratasi uvige “50” hamsini.”
He said, 'A hundred batos of oil.' He said to him, 'Take your 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, 'How much do you owe?' He said, 'A hundred cors of wheat.' He said to him, 'Take your 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)
"His lord commended the dishonest manager for his shrewdness, for the people of this age are more shrewd in dealing with their own generation than the people 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 friends for yourselves by means of unrighteous mammon, so that when it is gone they may welcome you into the 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 who is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much. He who is dishonest in a very little is also dishonest in much.
11 Ingave umwe samkhali vayilweli khu kyuma ikya vuvivi pu veni iva vayelweli khu kyuma ikya lweli?
If therefore you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches?
12 Pu ingave mukhale vasita khuva vayilweli pa khu vombela ikyuma kya munu uyunge veni uviyakhiva ikhuvapa ikhiyakhiva ikhuvapa ikhikhivile khinyo yumwe?
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 else he will hold to one, and despise the other. You are not able to serve God and wealth."
14 Pu Avafalisayo vuvavo valikhunogwa ihela, pu vagapulikhe aga goni pu vakhabeda.
The Pharisees, who were lovers of money, also heard all these things, and they scoffed at him.
15 Pu akhavavula, “Umwe ukhuta mukhiginiya khuvulongolo khuvanu, pu Unguluve akhanchimanya inumbula nchetu. Ulwakhuva ilimikhiwe khu munu liva livivi khuvulongolo khwa Nguluve.
He said to them, "You are those who justify yourselves in the sight of people, but God knows your hearts. For that which is exalted among people is an abomination in the sight of 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 Good News of the kingdom of God is preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.
17 Ukhuva ikhilunga khipepe fihege ukhuhuma endagilo yimo yihege.
But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one tiny stroke of a pen in the Law to become void.
18 Uvi ikhundekha udala nu khugula uyunge nu khutola vatamaniyege iva aligwipe nukhuva indigu, nu yunge uvi ikhutola ula uvialekhilwe nu gosi, ivaindigu.
Everyone who divorces his wife, and marries another, commits adultery. He who marries one who is divorced from a husband commits 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.
"Now there was a certain rich man, and he was clothed in purple and fine linen, living in luxury every day.
20 Nu ganchu umo ilitawa lya mwene ele vi Lazaro avikhiwe pa ndyango ugwa tayili, pu ale ni fikhoho.
A certain beggar, named Lazarus, was placed 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.
and desiring to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man's table. Yes, even 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.
It happened that the beggar died, and that he was carried away by the angels to Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died, and 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, he lifted up his eyes, being in torment, and saw Abraham far off, and Lazarus at 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.
He called out and said, 'Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue. For I am in anguish 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.
"But Abraham said, 'Son, remember that you, in your lifetime, received your good things, and Lazarus, in like manner, bad things. But now here he is comforted and you are in anguish.
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.'
Besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, that those who want to pass from here to you are not able, and that none may cross over from there to us.'
27 Utayili akhanchova, 'Nukhudova Dada Brahamu, nikhukhudova usuhe khukha khwa dada vango
"He said, 'I ask you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father's house;
28 khu khaya khuvale avalukholo lwango vahano ukhuta avavunge khuluvipi ukhuta vope yuvikhwincha khunu, khulivupala fincho, valekhe ukhwincha. '

"He said, 'No, father Abraham, but if one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.'
31 Pu Brahamu akhavavula, 'vangave savikhuvapulikha avo uMose na vanyamalago savakhidikhe nela pwu hume umunu khuvunchukha savakhawesye ukhupulikha.
"He said to him, 'If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be persuaded if one rises from the dead.'"
