Luke 15
1 Sie len ah ke mwet eisani tax ac mwet koluk puspis saya fahsreni in lohng luti lun Jesus,
Then drew near to him all the publicans and sinners for to hear him.
2 mwet Pharisee ac mwet luti Ma Sap uh mutawauk in torkaskas ac fahk, “Mwet se inge eisani mwet koluk ac el welulos pac mongo!”
And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receives sinners, and eats with them.
3 Ouinge Jesus el fahk pupulyuk se inge nu selos:
And he spoke this parable to them, saying,
4 “Fin sie suwos oasr sheep siofok natul, ac soko tuhlac, mea el ac oru? Ya el ac tia filiya ma eungoul eu inima an ac som suk ma soko ma tuhlac nwe ke na el konauk?
What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, does not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it?
5 Ke el konalak el ac arulana engan, na el ac srakalak nu finpisal,
And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
6 ac usal folokla nu yen sel ah. Na el ac pangoneni mwet kawuk lal ac mwet tulan lal ac fahk nu selos, ‘Fahsru wiyu engan, mweyen nga konauk sheep soko nutik ma tuhlac!’
And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost.
7 Nga fahk nu suwos, in ouiya se pacna inge, ac fah oasr engan lulap inkusrao ke sie mwet koluk su auliyak, liki mwet suwoswos eungoul eu su nunku mu elos tia enenu in auliyak.
I say to you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repents, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.
8 “Ku sie mutan fin oasr ipin mani singoul lal, ac sie tuhlac, mea el ac oru? Ya el ac tia akosak lam uh, imonla lohm uh, ac moniyuk in suk nwe ke na el konauk?
Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she lose one piece, does not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she find it?
9 Ke pacl se el konauk uh el ac pangoneni mwet kawuk lal ac mwet tulan lal ac fahk nu selos, ‘Fahsru wiyu engan, mweyen nga konauk ipin mani se luk ma tuhlac!’
And when she has found it, she calls her friends and her neighbors together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I had lost.
10 Nga fahk nu suwos, in ouiya se na inge, yohk engan yurin lipufan lun God ke sie mwet koluk su auliyak.”
Likewise, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repents.
11 Ac Jesus el sifilpa fahk, “Oasr wen luo nutin sie mwet.
And he said, A certain man had two sons:
12 Wen se ma fusr ah fahk nu sin papa tumal, ‘Papa, ase nu sik inge ip luk ke mwe usru lom uh.’ Ouinge papa sac kitalik usru lal nu seltal.
And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falls to me. And he divided to them his living.
13 Tukun kutu len, wen se ma fusr ah el eisani ma lal nukewa ac som nu ke sie facl loessula, ac sununtei mani lal uh ke ma na wangin sripa.
And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.
14 Tukun el sisla ma lal nukewa, na sie sracl lulap sikyak in facl sac, ac el muta in kwaco na lulap.
And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.
15 Ke ma inge el som ac sukok orekma yurin sie mwet in facl sac, su supwalla nu inima lal in liyaung pig uh.
And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
16 El kena akkihpye insial ke kulun bean nun pig uh, a wanginna mwet sang nu sel.
And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no man gave to him.
17 Tok, el asmakla ac nunkauk in el mu, ‘Yolyak mwe mongo nun mwet orekma lun papa tumuk, a nga akuran misa ke masrinsral!
And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father’s have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!
18 Inge nga ac tuyak ac folokla nu yurin papa tumuk ac fahk nu sel, “Papa, nga orekma koluk lain God ac lain kom.
I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before you,
19 Tia fal in sifil pangpang nga wen nutum. Oreyu oana sie sin mwet orekma lom.’”
And am no more worthy to be called your son: make me as one of your hired servants.
20 Ke ma inge, el tuyak ac folokla nu yurin papa tumal. “Ke el srakna fahsr loesla liki lohm sel uh, papa tumal ah liyalak ac arulana pakomutal, ac el kasrusr nu yurin wen natul, kafiselma inpaol ac ngok mutal.
And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.
21 Na wen sac fahk, ‘Papa, nga orekma koluk lain God ac lain kom. Tia fal in sifilpa pangpang nga wen nutum.’
And the son said to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in your sight, and am no more worthy to be called your son.
22 Tusruktu papa sac fahk nu sin mwet kulansap lal, ‘Sulaklak, use sie nuknuk na kato ac sang nokmulang. Sang pac sie ring nu ke paol, ac fahluk nu ke nial.
But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet:
23 Na kowos som ac use cow fusr soko ma fact oemeet uh ac uniya, kut in orek kufwa ac engan.
And bring here the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry:
24 Mwehen wen se nutik inge tuh misa, ac inge el sifil moul; el tuhlac, ac inge koneyukyak el.’ Ouinge kufwa ah mutawauk.
For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.
25 “In pacl se inge, wen se ma matu ah orekma oasr inimae. Ke el foloko ac apkuranyang nu ke lohm uh, el lohng pusren mwe on ac onsrosro.
Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing.
26 Na el pangonma sie sin mwet kulansap uh ac siyuk sel, ‘Mea orek uh?’
And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.
27 Ac mwet kulansap sac fahk, ‘Tamulel se lom el foloko, ac papa tomom el uniya cow fusr soko ma fact oemeet uh, mweyen wen se natul ah painmoul foloko ac ku na.’
And he said to him, Your brother is come; and your father has killed the fatted calf, because he has received him safe and sound.
28 Wen se ma matu arulana kasrkusrak, ac tia lungse utyak nu in lohm ah. Ouinge papa tumal el tufoki ac kwafe elan utyak.
And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and entreated him.
29 Tusruktu el topuk papa tumal ac fahk, ‘Liye, yac puspis nga orekma nu sum oana sie mwet foko, ac tiana seakos ma sap lom uh. Ac mea kom se nu sik? Ne nani soko, kom tia pac use nga in orek kufwa kac yurin mwet kawuk luk uh!
And he answering said to his father, See, these many years do I serve you, neither transgressed I at any time your commandment: and yet you never gave me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:
30 A wen se nutum inge el sununtei ma lom nukewa yurin mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lalos, ac ke el foloko kom uniya cow fusr soko ma fact oemeet uh nu sel!’
But as soon as this your son was come, which has devoured your living with harlots, you have killed for him the fatted calf.
31 Papa sac fahk nu sel, ‘Wen nutik, kom muta yuruk pacl nukewa, ac ma luk nukewa ma lom.
And he said to him, Son, you are ever with me, and all that I have is yours.
32 A kut enenu na in orek kufwa ac engan, mweyen tamulel se lom inge el misa ac sifil moul. El tuhlac, ac inge sifil koneyukyak el.’”
It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this your brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.
