Luqaas 14
1 Guyyaa Sanbataa tokko yommuu Yesuus buddeena nyaachuuf mana Fariisicha beekamaa tokkoo dhaqetti, namoonni xiyyeeffatanii isa ilaalaa turan.
And it came to pass, as he went into the house of one of the chief Pharisees to eat bread on the sabbath, that they watched him.
2 Namichi dhagni isaa dhiitaʼe tokkos fuula isaa dura ture.
And behold, there was a certain man before him who had the dropsy.
3 Yesuusis, “Guyyaa Sanbataatiin nama fayyisuun ni eeyyamama moo hin eeyyamamu?” jedhee Fariisotaa fi hayyoota seeraa gaafate.
And Jesus answering, spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath?
4 Isaan garuu ni calʼisan; innis namicha harkaan qaqqabee fayyisee gad isa lakkise.
And they held their peace. And he took [him] and healed him, and let him go;
5 Innis, “Isin keessaa namni tokko yoo ilma yookaan qotiyyoo guyyaa Sanbataatiin boolla keessa buʼe qabaate, inni yeruma sana harkisee boolla keessaa hin baasuu?” jedhee isaan gaafate.
And answered them, saying, Which of you shall have an ass or an ox fallen into a pit, and will not forthwith pull him out on the sabbath?
6 Isaan garuu deebii kennuu hin dandeenye.
And they could not answer him again to these things.
7 Innis yommuu akka keessumoonni sun iddoo ulfinaa filatan hubatetti akkana jedhee fakkeenya kana isaanitti hime;
And he put forth a parable to those who were invited, when he marked how they chose out the chief rooms; saying to them,
8 “Yoo namni tokko cidha fuudhaa fi heerumaatti si waame, iddoo ulfinaa hin taaʼin; tarii namni si caalaa ulfina qabu tokko waamameera taʼaatii.
When thou art invited by any [man] to a wedding, sit not down in the highest room, lest a more honorable man than thou be invited by him;
9 Namichi isin lamaanuu waame sun dhufee, ‘Namicha kanaaf kaʼi’ siin jedha; atis qaanoftee dhaqxee lafa iddoo hundumaa gad taʼe teessa.
And he that invited thee and him, shall come and say to thee, Give this man place; and thou begin with shame to take the lowest room.
10 Ati garuu yommuu waamamtu akka namichi si waame sun yeroo dhufutti, ‘Yaa michuu koo iddoo ol aanutti hiiqi’ siin jedhuuf dhaqii lafa iddoo hundumaa gad taʼe taaʼi; yoos fuula warra si wajjin maaddiitti dhiʼaatan hundumaa duratti ulfina argattaatii.
But when thou art invited, go and sit down in the lowest room; that when he that invited thee cometh, he may say to thee, Friend, go up higher: then shalt thou have honor in the presence of them that sit at table with thee.
11 Namni ol of qabu hundinuu gad qabamaatii; namni gad of qabu hundinuu immoo ol qabama.”
For whoever exalteth himself shall be abased, and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
12 Yesuusis namicha isa waame sanaan akkana jedhe; “Ati yommuu laaqana yookaan irbaata qopheessitu michoota kee yookaan obboloota kee, yookaan firoota kee, yookaan olloota kee warra sooreyyii hin waamin; yoo akkas goote isaanis deebisanii si waamu; gatiin kees siif deebifama.
Then said he also to him that invited him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, call not thy friends, nor thy brethren, neither thy kinsmen, nor [thy] rich neighbors; lest they also invite thee again, and a recompense be made thee.
13 Garuu yommuu cidha qopheessitu hiyyeeyyii, naafa, okkolaa fi jaamaa waami.
But when thou makest a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind:
14 Sababii isaan waan siif deebisan hin qabneef ati ni eebbifamta; gatiin kee guyyaa duʼaa kaʼuu qajeeltotaatti siif deebifamaatii.”
And thou shalt be blessed: for they cannot recompense thee: for thou shalt be recompensed at the resurrection of the just.
15 Warra isa wajjin maaddiitti dhiʼaatan keessaa namichi tokko yommuu waan kana dhagaʼetti Yesuusiin, “Namni mootummaa Waaqaa keessatti maaddiitti dhiʼaatu eebbifamaa dha” jedhe.
And when one of them that sat at table with him heard these things, he said to him, Blessed [is] he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God.
16 Yesuus immoo akkana jedhee deebise; “Namichi tokko cidha guddaa qopheessee keessumoota hedduu affeere.
Then said he to him, A certain man made a great supper, and invited many:
17 Namichi sunis saʼaatii nyaataatti akka inni, ‘Kunoo, wanni hundinuu qopheeffameeraatii kottaa’ jedhee warra affeeraman sanatti himuuf garbicha isaa erge.
And sent his servant at supper-time, to say to them that were invited, Come, for all things are now ready.
18 “Garuu isaan hundi bifuma tokkoon sababa dhiʼeeffachuu jalqaban; inni jalqabaa, ‘Ani lafa qotiisaa bitadheera; kanaafuu dhaqeen ilaaluu qabaatii maaloo na hin komatin’ jedheen.
And they all with one [consent] began to make excuse. The first said to him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it: I pray thee have me excused.
19 “Inni kaan, ‘Ani qotiyyoo cimdii shan bitadheera; isaan leenjisuuf deemuuttin jiraatii, maaloo na hin komatin’ jedheen.
And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused.
20 “Amma illee inni kaan, ‘Ani dhiʼoon niitii fuudhe; kanaafuu dhufuu hin dandaʼu’ jedheen.
And another said, I have married a wife: and therefore I cannot come.
21 “Garbichi sunis deebiʼee waan kana gooftaa isaatti hime. Abbaan mana sanaas aaree, ‘Dafii karaa guddaa fi daandii qalʼaa magaalaatti achi baʼiitii hiyyeeyyii, naafa, jaamaa fi okkolaa fidii ol seensis’ jedhee garbicha isaa ajaje.
So that servant came, and showed his lord these things. Then the master of the house being angry, said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind.
22 “Garbichi sunis, ‘Yaa gooftaa, wanni ati ajajje hundi raawwateera; garuu amma illee iddoon jira’ jedheen.
And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room.
23 “Gooftichis garbicha isaatiin akkana jedhe; ‘Akka manni koo guutamuuf karaa guddaa fi daandii baadiyyaatti achi baʼiitii akka isaan ol galan dirqisiisi.
And the lord said to the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel [them] to come in, that my house may be filled.
24 Ani isinittin hima; namoota waamaman sana keessaa namni tokko iyyuu maaddii koo irraa afaaniin hin qabu.’”
For I say to you, that none of those men who were invited, shall taste my supper.
25 Namoonni baayʼeen Yesuus wajjin deemaa turan; innis garagalee akkana isaaniin jedhe;
And there went great multitudes with him: and he turned, and said to them,
26 “Namni gara koo dhufu kam iyyuu yoo abbaa isaatii fi haadha isaa, niitii isaatii fi ijoollee isaa, obboloota isaatii fi obboleettota isaa akkasumas lubbuu isaa illee hin jibbine inni barataa koo taʼuu hin dandaʼu.
If any [man] cometh to me, and hateth not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.
27 Namni fannoo ofii isaa baadhatee na duukaa hin buune kam iyyuus barataa koo taʼuu hin dandaʼu.
And whoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.
28 “Mee isin keessaa namni tokko gamoo ijaarrachuu barbaada haa jennuu; namichi sun gamoo sana ijaaree fixuuf horii gaʼaa qabaachuu fi qabaachuu baachuu isaa beekuuf duraan dursee taaʼee gatii isaa hin herregatuu?
For which of you intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he hath [sufficient] to finish [it]?
29 Yoo kanaa achii yommuu inni hundee kaaʼee fixuu dadhabutti, namoonni argan hundi itti qoosu.
Lest perhaps after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish [it], all that behold [it] begin to mock him,
30 Isaanis, ‘Namichi kun ijaaruu jalqabee fixuu dadhabe’ jedhu.
Saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish.
31 “Yookaan mee mootiin tokko mootii biraa loluu dhaqa haa jennuu; inni mootii loltoota kuma digdamaan isatti dhufu tokko loltoota kuma kudhaniin of irraa loluu dandaʼuu fi dandaʼuu baachuu isaa duraan dursee taaʼee itti hin yaaduu?
Or what king going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand?
32 Yoo hin dandeenye immoo utuu mootichi kaan isa irraa fagoo jiruu bakka buʼoota itti ergee akka nagaan buʼu kadhata.
Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sendeth an embassy, and desireth conditions of peace.
33 Akkanumas isin keessaa namni waan qabu hunda hin dhiifne kam iyyuu barataa koo taʼuu hin dandaʼu.
So likewise, whoever he is of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.
34 “Soogiddi gaarii dha; garuu yoo inni miʼaa isaa dhabe, miʼaan isaa akkamiin deebifamuu dandaʼa?
Salt [is] good: but if the salt hath lost its savor, with what shall it be seasoned?
35 Inni biyyoof yookaan tuulaa kosiitiif faayidaa hin qabu; inni gad gatama. “Namni gurra dhagaʼu qabu kam iyyuu haa dhagaʼu.”
It is neither fit for the land, nor yet for the dunghill, [but] men cast it out. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
