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 spake a parable to his disciples: There was a certain rich man who had a house-chief; and he was accused to him that his substance he wasted.
2 Pu unkhavi akhamwilanga akhambula, “Khinukhi ikhi nipulikha khulyuve? Humya imbalilo incha mbaha vakho, ulwakhuva sawiwesya ukhuva mbaha lino.'
And his lord called him, and said to him, What is this that I hear of thee? give me the account of thy house-headship; for thou canst no longer be house-chief unto me.
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 house-chief said within himself, What shall I do? for my lord taketh from me the house-headship. I cannot dig, and 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 put out of the house-headship, 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?'
And he called one by one from the debtors of his lord, and said to the first, How much owest thou to my lord?
6 Akhanchova ifipimilo khinchigo ifya mono, akhambula 'tola ilikhuratasi uvige “50” hamsini.”
And he said to him, An hundred metres of oil. He saith to him, Take thy book, and sit down quickly, and write fifty metres.
7 hange ambula uyunge nuve ulinilikhole ilingi?' akhanchova akhata nilinilikhole ilya fipimo “100” ifya vutineuwa ngano.' Akhambula akhatatola ikyandikhilo wandikhe “80”.'
And he said to another, And thou, how much owest thou to my lord? He saith to him, An hundred kureen of wheat. He saith to him, Take thy book, and sit down, write eighty kureen.
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 praised our Lord the house-chief who was unjust, in that he had done wisely; for the sons of this world are wiser than the sons of light in this their generation. (aiōn g165)
9 Nune nikhuvavula mwivombelage ukhuva na vayinyikhu kyuma ikya vuviviukhuta puyakhiva sawipata vavahegelenche khu vutavuo uwa sikhu nchoni. (aiōnios g166)
Also I say unto you, Make to you friends from this wealth of unrighteousness, that, when perfect, they may receive you into the tabernacles of eternity. (aiōnios g166)
10 Uviale vaviyilweli khuvudebe iva vayilweli khuvu vaha. na aliye dhalimu katika lililo dogo huwa dhalimu katika lililo kubwa pia.
Whoever in the little is faithful, in the great also is faithful; and he who in the little is unjust, in the great also is unjust.
11 Ingave umwe samkhali vayilweli khu kyuma ikya vuvivi pu veni iva vayelweli khu kyuma ikya lweli?
If, therefore, in the wealth of unrighteousness you have not been faithful, the truth to you who will confide?
12 Pu ingave mukhale vasita khuva vayilweli pa khu vombela ikyuma kya munu uyunge veni uviyakhiva ikhuvapa ikhiyakhiva ikhuvapa ikhikhivile khinyo yumwe?
And if in that which is not yours you are not found faithful, your own who will give to you?
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 man can serve two lords; for either the one he will hate, and the other he will love; or the one he will honour, and the other despise. You cannot serve Aloha and wealth.
14 Pu Avafalisayo vuvavo valikhunogwa ihela, pu vagapulikhe aga goni pu vakhabeda.
But the Pharishee, when they heard all these things, because they loved money, derided him.
15 Pu akhavavula, “Umwe ukhuta mukhiginiya khuvulongolo khuvanu, pu Unguluve akhanchimanya inumbula nchetu. Ulwakhuva ilimikhiwe khu munu liva livivi khuvulongolo khwa Nguluve.
But Jeshu said to them, You are they who justify yourselves before the sons of men; but Aloha knoweth your hearts. For, what is exalted among men, before Aloha is abominable.
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 Juchanon; from thenceforth the kingdom of Aloha is preached, and every one presseth to enter.
17 Ukhuva ikhilunga khipepe fihege ukhuhuma endagilo yimo yihege.
But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than one letter from the law to pass away.
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 who looseth his wife, and taketh another, committeth adultery; and every one who taketh the dismissed, 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.
NOW there was a certain rich man, and he was clothed in byssos and purple, and every day feasted gaily.
20 Nu ganchu umo ilitawa lya mwene ele vi Lazaro avikhiwe pa ndyango ugwa tayili, pu ale ni fikhoho.
And there was a certain poor man, whose name was Loózar; and he lay at the gate of him who was rich, bruised with wounds,
21 Pu umwene anogwagwa ukhulya amalagalila agagwile pasi aga fyakhulya pa mesa iya tayili uchili khu myianga ifikho ho ifya uganchu.
and desired to fill his belly with the crumbs which fell from the table of that rich. And also the dogs came and licked his wounds.
22 Pu ula uganchu akhefwa nu khutoliwa nu unsuhwa nu khumbikha khukhifwa ikya Ibrahimu pu khifwa ikya Irahimu. Pu utayili vope akhafwa nu khusyila.
Now that poor man died, and angels conducted him to the bosom of Abraham: but that 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)
And, tormented in shiul, he lifted up his eyes afar, and seeth Abraham, and Loózar 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 with a high voice, and said, My father Abraham, have compassion upon me, and send Loózar, that he may dip the top of his finger in waters, and moisten my tongue; for, behold, 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.
Abraham said to him, My son, remember that thou didst receive thy goods in thy life, and Loózar his evils, and now, behold, he reposeth here, 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 with all these, there is a great void set between us and you, that they who would pass from hence unto you are not able, nor they also who would pass from thence to us.
27 Utayili akhanchova, 'Nukhudova Dada Brahamu, nikhukhudova usuhe khukha khwa dada vango
He said to him, I pray thee, then, my father, to send him unto my father's house:
28 khu khaya khuvale avalukholo lwango vahano ukhuta avavunge khuluvipi ukhuta vope yuvikhwincha khunu, khulivupala fincho, valekhe ukhwincha. '
for five brethren have I; let him go and testify unto them, that they also come not to this place of torment.
29 Pu u Brahamu akhanchova, 'Khuvale avanyamalago nu Mose vilekhelwe vavapulehinchage avo.
Abraham said to him, They have Musha 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 to him, No, my father Abraham, but if one from the dead shall go unto them, they repent.
31 Pu Brahamu akhavavula, 'vangave savikhuvapulikha avo uMose na vanyamalago savakhidikhe nela pwu hume umunu khuvunchukha savakhawesye ukhupulikha.
Abraham saith to him, If Musha and the prophets they hear not, neither, if one from the dead should rise, would they believe him.
