Luke 11
1 Sie len ah Jesus el pre in sie acn. Ke el tari, sie sin mwet tumal lutlut fahk nu sel, “Leum, luti kut in pre, oana ke John el luti nu sin mwet tumal lutlut ah.”
It happened he was praying in a certain place, and when he stopped, one of his disciples said to him, "Master, teach us how to pray, just as Johntaught his disciples."
2 Jesus el fahk nu selos, “Kowos in pre ouinge: ‘Papa: Lela Ine mutal lom in akfulatyeyuk; Lela Tokosrai lom in tuku.
So he said to them. "When you pray, say, "Father, hallowed be thy name; May thy kingdom come,
3 Kite kut mwe mongo ma kut enenu pingana len.
"Give us day by day our bread for the coming day;
4 Nunak munas nu sesr ke ma koluk lasr, Mweyen kut nunak munas nu sin mwet nukewa su oru koluk nu sesr. Ac tia kol kut nu ke mwe srike upa.’”
"Forgive us our sins; for we also forgive everyone who has offended us; "And bring us not into temptation."
5 Ac Jesus el fahk nu sin mwet tumal lutlut, “Fin pa sie suwos som nu lohm sin mwet kawuk se lal ke infulwen fong ac fahk nu sel, ‘Mwet kawuk, sewin tolkwe lof in bread an.
He also said to them. "Suppose you have a friend and you go to him, ‘My friend, lend me three loaves of bread,
6 Kawuk se luk fahsr nu ke sie pac acn tuh pa tui yuruk, a wangin ma ngan sang kital!’
"for a friend of mine is come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him.’
7 Na kawuk se lom el fin kasma luin lohm uh me, ‘Nimet tukasru! Ku kom tia liye lah srungul uh kauli tari? Nga ac tulik nutik inge mutulla tari. Nga tia ku in tukakek ac sot enenu lom an.’
"and he from indoors shall answer. ‘Do not pester me. The door is now closed, and my children are with me in bed. I cannot rise and give to you.’
8 Na fuka? Nga fahk nu suwos lah el finne tia tukakek ac sot bread uh nu sum ke sripen kom mwet kawuk lal, tusruk ke sripen sumwekin ac kuinsrim lom an, el ac tukakek ac sot mwe enenu lom nukewa.
"I tell you that, though he will not rise and give to him because he is his friend, yet because of his importunate persistence he will rise and give him whatever he needs.
9 Ouinge nga fahk nu suwos: Siyuk, ac ac fah itukot nu suwos; suk, ac kowos fah konauk; towolak, ac ac fah ikakla nu suwos.
"So I say to you. "Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and ye shall find; knock and it shall be opened to you.
10 Tuh elos nukewa su siyuk ac fah eis, ac el su suk el fah konauk, ac srungul ac fah ikakla nu sin kutena mwet su towolak.
"For he that asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks the door shall be opened.
11 Su suwos su oasr tulik natu ac sang nu sin wen natul soko wet pwasin el fin siyuk ke soko ik?
"What father is there among you who, if his son asks for a loaf, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish will give him instead a serpent?
12 Ku el fin siyuk ke sie atro, ya kom ac sang nu sel soko scorpion?
"Or if he asks for an egg, will offer him a scorpion?
13 Kowos finne koluk, a kowos etu in sang ma wo nu sin tulik nutuwos uh. Kalem na lah Papa tomowos inkusrao El ac oru arulana yohk liki, ac El ac fah sang Ngun Mutal nu selos su siyuk sel!”
"If you give good gifts to your children, how much more shall the Father who is in heaven give the Holy spirit to those that ask him!"
14 Jesus el lusla sie demon su oru mwet se kofla kaskas, ac ke pacl se demon sac illa ah, mwet sac mutawauk in kaskas. Un mwet se ma liye ah arulana fwefela,
Once he was casting out a dumb demon, and when the demon was gone out, the dumb man spoke, and the people wondered.
15 tusruktu kutu selos fahk mu, “Beelzebul, leum lun demon uh, pa sang ku nu sel in luselosyak uh.”
But some of them said, "It is by Beelzebub, the prince of demons, that he cast out demons."
16 Ac kutu pac selos kena srikal Jesus, ouinge elos siyuk sel elan oru sie mwe akul in akkalemye lah ku lal ma inkusrao me.
Others, tempting him, kept seeking from him a sign from heaven.
17 Tuh Jesus el etu ma elos nunku, na el fahk nu selos, “Kutena mutunfacl su srisrielik ac alein sie sin sie fah tia oan paht; sie sou su srisrielik ac fah musalelik.
He knew their intentions and said to them. "Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste and house falls upon house.
18 Ke ma inge, u lun Satan uh fin tukeni aacnwuki, na tokosrai lal uh ac ku fuka? Kowos fahk mu nga lusla demon uh mweyen Beelzebul el se ku luk in oru.
"And if Satan also is divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand?
19 Fin pa ingan ouiya nga oru uh, na mwet lowos uh luselosla fuka? Mwet lowos uh sifacna akpwayei lah kowos sutuela!
"Do you say that I am casting out demons by the power of Beelzebub? If I then am casting out demons by Beelzebub, by whom are your sons casting them out? They therefore shall be your judges.
20 Tiana ouingan, a ku lun God pa oru nga in lusla demon uh, ac ma inge akpwayei lah Tokosrai lun God tuku tari nu yuruwos.
"But if it is by the finger of God that I am casting out demons, then the kingdom of God is come upon you.
21 “Ke sie mwet fokoko el akoela tari kufwen mwe mweun lal nukewa in karingin lohm sel, na ma lal nukewa ac oanna wo.
"When the strong man fully aroused keeps guard over his homestead, his property is undisturbed;
22 Tusruktu sie mwet ma ku lukel fin tuku lainul ac kutangulla, el ac usla kufwen mweun nukewa ma mwet sac tuh lulalfongi, ac kitalik ma el pisrala uh.
"but when the stronger man attacks him, he takes away from the strong armor in which he was trusting and divides up the spoil.
23 “El su tia wiyu, el lainyu. Ac el su tia wiyu eisani, el sisalik.
"He who is not for me is against me, and he who is not gathering with me is scattering.
24 “Ke pacl se sie ngun fohkfok ac illa liki sie mwet, el ac forfor in acn ma wangin kof we, in suk acn elan mongla we. El fin tia ku in konauk, el ac fahk nu sel sifacna, ‘Nga ac folokla nu in lohm se nga muta we meet ah.’
"Whenever a foul spirit is gone out of a man, it roams through waterless places, in search of rest; but when it can find none, it says, ‘I will go back to the house which I have left.’
25 Ouinge el ac folokla ac liye lah acn sac nasnasla ac arulana akoeyukla wo.
When it comes and finds the house completely swept and garnished.
26 Na el ac illa ac sifil solama itkosr pac ngun fohkfok ma arulana koluk lukel, na elos ac tuku ac muta we. Na ac oru tuh moul lun mwet sac ac koluk liki na meet ah.”
"Then it goes off and fetches seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the last state of that man is worse than the first."
27 Ke Jesus el fahk ma inge, mutan se kasak liki inmasrlon mwet uh ac fahk nu sel, “Insewowo mutan se su oswekomla ac katitii kom!”
It happened while he was saying this, that a certain woman out of the crowd shouted to him, saying, "Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breast that you have sucked."
28 A Jesus el topuk, “Aok pwaye, tuh elos su lohng kas lun God ac akos, ac insewowo yohk liki!’”
"No, rather," he answered, "blessed are those who listen to the word of God, and keep it."
29 Ke mwet uh iktokeni nu yorol Jesus, el sifilpa fahk, “Fuka lupan koluk lun mwet in pacl inge uh! Elos siyuk sie mwe akul lulap, tuh wangin ma ac itukyang nu selos sayen mwe akul kacl Jonah.
When the crowd were beginning to throng about him he proceeded to say. "This is an evil generation! It seeks a sign, and there shall be no sign be given to it except the sign of Jonah;
30 In oapana ke mwet palu Jonah el tuh sie mwe akul nu sin mwet Nineveh, ouinge Wen nutin Mwet el ac fah sie mwe akul nu sin mwet in pacl inge.
"for as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so shall the Son of man be to this generation.
31 Ke Len in Nununku uh, Kasra lun Sheba el ac mau tuyak ac orek loh lain mwet in pacl inge uh, mweyen el tuh tuku liki acn sel su oan yen loeslana in tuh porongo kas lalmwetmet lal Solomon; ac nga fahk nu suwos lah oasr sie inge su arulana yohk lukel Solomon.
"The queen of the South shall rise up in Judgement with the men of this generation, and shall condemn them; because she came from the ends of the earth to listen to the wisdom of Solomon, and lo, one greater than Solomon is here!
32 Ke Len in Nununku, mwet Nineveh elos ac mau tuyak ac orek loh lain kowos, mweyen elos tuh forla liki ma koluk lalos ke elos lohng luti lal Jonah; ac nga fahk nu suwos lah oasr sie inge su arulana yohk lukel Jonah!
"The men of the Nineveh shall stand up in the judgment with his generation and shall condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and lo! one greater than Jonah is here!
33 “Wangin sie mwet ac akosak sie lam ac okanla, ku afinya ke sie ahlu. El ac filiya fin sukan lam uh, tuh mwet uh in liye kalem kac ke elos ac utyak nu in lohm uh.
"When one lights a lamp he does not put it in a cellar nor under the bushel, but on a lamp-stand that those who enter may see the light.
34 Atronmutun mwet uh oana sie lam nu ke mano. Atronmotom fin nasnas, na monum nufon ac sessesla ke kalem; tusruktu atronmotom fin koluk, monum nufon ac fah lohsr.
"The lamp of the body is your eye; when your eye is single then your whole body is full of light; but when it is evil your whole body is full of darkness.
35 Kowos karinganang tuh kalem su oan in kowos an in tia lohsr.
"Look carefully! Perhaps that very light of yours is darkness.
36 Monum nufon fin sessesla ke kalem ac wangin kitin acn lohsr kac, ac fah arulana kalem, oana ke sie lam ac tolkowosyak ke kalem yohk la.”
"If, however, your whole body is full of light, without having any part dark, it will be wholly radiant with light, as when the lamp illumines you with its bright rays."
37 Tukun Jesus el kaskas tari, sie mwet Pharisee solal elan welul mongo; ouinge el utyak ac akola in mongo.
When he had finished speaking a Pharisee asked him to dine with him; so he went in with him and reclined.
38 Mwet Pharisee sac lut ke el liye lah Jesus el tiana winwinla meet liki el mongo.
And the Pharisee noticed, to his amazement, that he did not wash his hands before eating,
39 Ouinge Leum el fahk nu sel, “Kowos mwet Pharisee uh oaru na in ohlla acn lik ke cup ac ahlu in mongo lowos uh, a insiowos sesseslana ke sulallal ac ma koluk.
but the Lord said to him. "You Pharisee do cleanse the outside of your cup or plate, but your secret heart is full of extortion and wickedness.
40 Kowos mwet nikin! God, su orala acn lik El oayapa orala acn loac!
"Foolish men! Did not He who made the outside make the inside also?
41 A kowos in sang ma oan in cup ac ahlu lowos an nu sin mwet sukasrup, na ma nukewa ac fah nasnas nu suwos.
"Better cleanse what is within, and nothing will be unclean for you.
42 “We nu suwos mwet Pharisee! Kowos sang nu sin God sie tafu singoul, finne ke mahsrik mwe akyuye mongo oana mint ac rue, a kowos pilesru nununku suwohs ac lungse nu sin God. Fal kowos in oru ma inge, ac tia pilesru ma saya uh.
"But woe unto you Pharisee! for you tithe mint and rue and every herb, and disregard justice and the love of God; but these you ought to have done, and not leave the other undone.
43 “We nu suwos mwet Pharisee! Kowos lungse nien muta fulat in iwen lolngok uh, ac in paingyuk kowos ke kas in sunak ke nien kuka uh.
"Woe unto you Pharisee! for you delight in the best seats in the synagogue, and in the salutation in the market-places.
44 We nu suwos! Kowos oana kulyuk ma wangin akul kac, na mwet uh fahsr fac ac tia akilen.”
"Woe unto you! for you are like the tombs which are hidden, and men walk over them unsuspecting."
45 Sie sin mwet luti Ma Sap uh fahk nu sel, “Mwet Luti, ke kom fahk ma inge, kom akkolukye kut pac!”
Hereupon one of the lawyers exclaimed, "But teacher, in saying such things you are also reproaching us also."
46 Jesus el topuk ac fahk, “We nu suwos pac, mwet luti Ma Sap! Kowos sang mwe utuk toasr nu fin mwet uh, a kowos tia asroela sokofanna kufinpouwos in kasrelos us ma inge.
"Woe unto you lawyers also!" said Jesus, "for you load men with irksome burdens, and you yourselves will not touch the burdens with one of your fingers.
47 We nu suwos! Kowos orala kulyuk na wowo nu sin mwet palu uh — nuna mwet palu na ma papa matu tomowos elos tuh onela.
"Woe to you! for you are building the tombs of the prophets whom you ancestors killed.
48 Kowos sifacna akkalemye lah kowos insese nu ke ma mwet matu lowos elos oru meet ah. Elos uniya mwet palu ah, na kowos musaela kulyuk lalos uh.
"So you are witnesses, and you consent to the actions of your ancestors. for they killed them, and you build their tombs.
49 Ke sripa se inge, Lalmwetmet lun God fahk mu, ‘Nga ac fah supwala mwet palu ac mwet sap nu yorolos; elos ac fah uniya kutu selos, ac kalyei kutu.’
"For this reason also said the Wisdom of God. ‘I will send them prophets and apostles; some of them they will kill and some they will persecute;
50 Ke ma inge mwet in pacl inge ac fah eis mwatan akmas ma papa matu tumalos tuh oru ke elos onela mwet palu nukewa ke mutaweyen orekla faclu ah me,
"so that the blood of all the prophets which was shed from the foundation of the world may be required from this generation,
51 mutawauk ke akmas kacl Abel me nwe ke akmas kacl Zechariah, su tuh anwuki inmasrlon loang in kisa ac Acn Mutal in Tempul uh. Aok, nga fahk nu suwos, mwet in fil se inge ac fah kalyeiyuk kaclos inge nukewa!
"from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the alter and the sanctuary; yes; I tell you, it shall be required of this generation!
52 “We nu suwos mwet luti Ma Sap uh! Kowos sruok key nu ke mutunoa lun etauk, a kowos sifacna tia utyak nu we, ac kowos kutongolos su kena utyak!”
"Woe to you lawyers, for you have taken away the key of knowledge!’ You yourselves have not entered, and you have hindered those who are trying to enter."
53 Ke Jesus el som liki lohm sac, mwet luti Ma Sap ac mwet Pharisee elos mutawauk in arulana lainul, ac srikal ke mwe siyuk puspis,
After he had gone away, the Scribes and the Pharisee began to set themselves vehemently against him, and to cross-question him upon many points,
