Lūkas Evaņg̒elijs 15
1 Un visādi muitnieki un grēcinieki steidzās pie Viņa, gribēdami Viņu dzirdēt.
Now all the tax collectors and sinners were coming close to him to hear him.
2 Un tie farizeji un rakstu mācītāji kurnēja un sacīja: “Šis uzņem grēciniekus un ēd ar tiem.”
The Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying, “This man welcomes sinners, and eats with them.”
3 Bet Viņš tiem šo līdzību stāstīja un sacīja:
He told them this parable:
4 “Ja kādam cilvēkam jūsu starpā ir simts avis, un tam viena no tām pazūd, vai tas neatstāj tās deviņdesmit deviņas tuksnesī un nenoiet pēc tās pazudušās, tiekams to atrod?
“Which of you men, if you had one hundred sheep and lost one of them, wouldn’t leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after the one that was lost, until he found it?
5 Un to atradis, viņš līksmodamies to ceļ uz saviem pleciem.
When he has found it, he carries it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
6 Un mājās pārnācis viņš sasauc savus draugus un kaimiņus, uz tiem sacīdams: priecājaties ar mani, es savu avi esmu atradis, kas bija pazudusi.
When he comes home, he calls together his friends and his neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!’
7 Es jums saku: tā arī debesīs būs vairāk līksmības par vienu pašu grēcinieku, kas atgriežas no grēkiem, nekā par deviņdesmit deviņiem taisniem, kam atgriešanās no grēkiem nevajag.
I tell you that even so there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, than over ninety-nine righteous people who need no repentance.
8 Jeb ja kādai sievai ir desmit graši un viens tai nozūd, vai tā neiededzina sveci un nemēž namu, rūpīgi meklēdama, kamēr to atrod?
“Or what woman, if she had ten drachma coins, if she lost one drachma coin, wouldn’t light a lamp, sweep the house, and seek diligently until she found it?
9 Un to atradusi, tā sasauc savas draudzenes un kaimiņienes sacīdama: priecājaties ar mani, jo es savu grasi atkal esmu atradusi, kas man bija nozudis.
When she has found it, she calls together her friends and neighbors, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found the drachma which I had lost!’
10 Tā, Es jums saku, būs arī līksmība pie Dieva eņģeļiem par vienu pašu grēcinieku, kas atgriežas no grēkiem.”
Even so, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner repenting.”
11 Un Viņš sacīja: “Vienam cilvēkam bija divi dēli.
He said, “A certain man had two sons.
12 Un tas jaunākais no tiem sacīja uz tēvu: tēvs, dod man manu tiesu no tās mantas, kas man nākas; un viņš tiem to mantu dalīja.
The younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of your property.’ So he divided his livelihood between them.
13 Un pēc necik ilga laika tas jaunākais, visu saņēmis kopā, aizgāja uz tālu zemi un tur savu mantu izšķērdēja, negodīgi dzīvodams.
Not many days after, the younger son gathered all of this together and traveled into a far country. There he wasted his property with riotous living.
14 Kad nu tas visu savu mantu bija iztērējis, tad liels bads nāca tanī zemē, un tam iesāka pietrūkt.
When he had spent all of it, there arose a severe famine in that country, and he began to be in need.
15 Tad viņš gāja un pieķērās turpat pie viena namnieka; tas to sūtīja uz savu tīrumu, cūkas ganīt.
He went and joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed pigs.
16 Un viņš gribēja savu vēderu pildīt ar sēnalām, ko cūkas ēda, bet neviens ne tās tam nedeva.
He wanted to fill his belly with the pods that the pigs ate, but no one gave him any.
17 Tad viņš pie atzīšanas nācis sacīja: cik algādžu manam tēvam, kam maizes papilnam, un es mirstu badu!
But when he came to himself, he said, ‘How many hired servants of my father’s have bread enough to spare, and I’m dying with hunger!
18 Es celšos un iešu pie sava tēva un sacīšu uz viņu: tēvs, es esmu grēkojis pret debesīm un pret tevi,
I will get up and go to my father, and will tell him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight.
19 Un vairs neesmu cienīgs, ka mani sauc par tavu dēlu; dari mani par vienu no taviem algādžiem.
I am no more worthy to be called your son. Make me as one of your hired servants.”’
20 Un viņš cēlās un gāja pie sava tēva. Bet kad tas vēl bija tālu, tad viņa tēvs to redzēja, un viņš iežēlojās par to un skrēja un krita tam ap kaklu un to skūpstīja.
“He arose and came to his father. But while he was still far off, his father saw him and was moved with compassion, and ran, fell on his neck, and kissed him.
21 Un dēls sacīja uz viņu: tēvs, es esmu grēkojis pret debesi un pret tevi un neesmu vairs cienīgs, ka mani sauc par tavu dēlu.
The son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and in your sight. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’
22 Bet tēvs sacīja uz saviem kalpiem: atnesiet tās viskrāšņākās drēbes un ģērbiet to un dodiet tam gredzenu rokā un kurpes kājās.
“But the father said to his servants, ‘Bring out the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his hand and sandals on his feet.
23 Un atnesat treknu teļu un nokaujiet to, lai ēdam un līksmojamies.
Bring the fattened calf, kill it, and let’s eat and celebrate;
24 Jo šis mans dēls bija nomiris un atkal tapis dzīvs; viņš bija pazudis un ir atrasts. Un tie sāka līksmoties.
for this, my son, was dead and is alive again. He was lost and is found.’ Then they began to celebrate.
25 Bet vecākais dēls bija uz lauka, un pārnākdams tuvu pie mājām viņš dzirdēja to dziedāšanu un diešanu.
“Now his elder son was in the field. As he came near to the house, he heard music and dancing.
26 Un vienu no tiem kalpiem pasaucis, viņš jautāja, kas tas esot?
He called one of the servants to him and asked what was going on.
27 Un šis sacīja uz viņu: tavs brālis ir pārnācis, un tavs tēvs ir nokāvis treknu teļu, tāpēc ka viņš to veselu atdabūjis.
He said to him, ‘Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has received him back safe and healthy.’
28 Tad viņš apskaitās un negribēja ieiet. Bet viņa tēvs gāja ārā un to lūdza iekšā.
But he was angry and would not go in. Therefore his father came out and begged him.
29 Bet viņš atbildēja un sacīja uz tēvu: redzi, tik daudz gadus es tev kalpoju un nekad vēl neesmu pārkāpis tavu bausli, un tomēr man tu vēl nekad ne kazlēnu neesi devis, ka es būtu līksmojies ar saviem draugiem.
But he answered his father, ‘Behold, these many years I have served you, and I never disobeyed a commandment of yours, but you never gave me a goat, that I might celebrate with my friends.
30 Bet kad nu šis tavs dēls ir atnācis, kas tavu mantu aprijis ar maukām, tad tu viņam esi nokāvis barotu teļu.
But when this your son came, who has devoured your living with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him.’
31 Un viņš sacīja uz to: dēls, tu pie manis esi vienmēr un viss, kas mans, tas ir arī tavs.
“He said to him, ‘Son, you are always with me, and all that is mine is yours.
32 Bet tev bija būt līksmam un priecīgam, jo šis tavs brālis bija nomiris un ir atkal tapis dzīvs, viņš bija pazudis un ir atrasts.”
But it was appropriate to celebrate and be glad, for this, your brother, was dead, and is alive again. He was lost, and is found.’”
