Lukas 14
1 KADEKADEO ni a kotilong ong nan im en kaun pan Parisär amen, pwen konot ni ran en sapat; a irail masamasan i.
And it happened, when he went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees on a Sabbath to eat bread, that they were watching him.
2 A kilang, aramas amen mia wasa o, me lisongepo.
And look, a certain man who had dropsy was in front of him.
3 Iesus ap kotin sapeng masani ong saunkawewe o Parisär akan: Me pung, en kakelada ni ran en sapat?
Yeshua, answering, spoke to the Law scholars and Pharisees, saying, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath or not?"
4 Irail nenenla. I ap kotin sair i, kakelada o kadara wei.
But they were silent. He took him, and healed him, and let him go.
5 Ap kotin sapeng masani ong irail: Is re omail, me na as de kau pupedi ong nan por o, me so pan madang apiada sang ni ran en sapat?
He answered them, "Which of you, if your son or an ox fell into a well, would not immediately pull him out on a Sabbath day?"
6 A irail sota kak sapengki i meakot.
But they could make no reply to this.
7 A kotin masani ong toun kapar karaseras eu, ni a kotin mangi, me re inong iong en mondi ni tapin tepel, masani ong irail:
He spoke a parable to those who were invited, when he noticed how they chose the best seats, and said to them,
8 Koe lao pan luke dong kamadip en kapapaud ren meamen, ender mondi ong leppantam, pwe ele amen, me lapa sang koe lukedor.
"When you are invited by anyone to a marriage feast, do not sit in the best seat, since perhaps someone more honorable than you might be invited by him,
9 O me luk uk edo o pil i, pan kodo indai ong uk: Ki ong ol men et deu om! A koe pan namenok kodido ong nan roulap.
and he who invited both of you would come and tell you, 'Make room for this person.' Then you would begin, with shame, to take the lowest place.
10 A koe lao paluke, kola mondi ong nan roulap, pwe me luke uk lao pwarado, en indai ong uk: Kompoke pai, kotidato! Koe ari pan kaindand nan pung en ir, me iang uk ni tepel.
But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes, he may tell you, 'Friend, move up higher.' Then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at the table with you.
11 Pwe karos me kin kasapwilada pein i, pan kasapwilidi, o me kin kasapwilidi pein i, pan kasapwilada.
For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted."
12 Ap pil kotin masani ong me lukedo i: Kom lao wiada konot en ni sauas de nin sautik, eder lukedo kompokepa om ko, de ri om akan, de sau om, de men imp om kapwapwa kan, pwe re de pil luke uk, o depuk ong uk.
He also said to the one who had invited him, "When you make a dinner or a supper, do not call your friends, nor your brothers, nor your kinsmen, nor rich neighbors, or perhaps they might also return the favor, and pay you back.
13 A ma koe pan wia kamadip, en lukedo me samama o me pali duk kai, o me sikilikil, o me maskun akan.
But when you make a feast, ask the poor, the maimed, the lame, or the blind;
14 Koe ari pan meid pai, pwe irail sota pan kak depuk ong uk, a a pan depuk ong uk ni ran o, me pung kan pan maureda.
and you will be blessed, because they do not have the resources to repay you. For you will be repaid in the resurrection of the righteous."
15 A amen ir, me iang ni tepel o lao rongadar mepukat, ap potoan ong i: Meid pai, me pan sak prot nan wein Kot.
Now when one of those who were reclining with him heard these things, he said to him, "Blessed is he who will eat bread in the Kingdom of God."
16 A a kotin masani ong i: Aramas amen mia, me wiadar kamadip lapalap o luke pena me toto.
But he said to him, "A certain man made a great supper, and he invited many people.
17 O kadarala na ladu o ni dokan kamadip, pwen kaire kin irail, me pan toun kapar: Komail ukedo, pwe meakaros onoper.
And he sent his servant at the hour for supper to tell those who were invited, 'Come, for everything is ready now.'
18 Irail ap wiaki eu ikidiki okotme. Men mas indai ong i: I netiada sap eu, i pan kola kilang; i poeki re om, koe en kadar ia la.
They all as one began to make excuses. "The first said to him, 'I have bought a field, and I must go and see it. Please have me excused.'
19 A amen inda: I pwainda kau ol ek, a met i pan kola kilang ir; i poeki re om, koe en kadar ia la.
"Another said, 'I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I must go try them out. Please have me excused.'
20 A amen inda: I paudeki li amen, i me i sota kak kokila.
"Another said, 'I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.'
21 Ladu o ari purodo, kaireki a monsap meakan. Monsap o ap makara kidar indai ong a ladu: Tange wei nani al laud o al tikitik en kanim o wado me samama kan, o me pali duk, o me sikilikil, o me maskun akan.
"That servant came, and told 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 the poor, maimed, blind, and lame.'
22 A ladu o indada: Maing, a wiauier duen omui masan, a deun akai pil mia.
"The servant said, 'Lord, it is done as you commanded, and there is still room.'
23 Monsap o ap indai ong a ladu: Kakan sili nani al o ni kailan kel akan, papain ir do, pwe im ai en tounla!
"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 A i indai ong komail, nan sota amen ren ol oko, me paluke, pan song ai kamadip.
For I tell you that none of those individuals who were invited will taste of my supper.'"
25 A pokon kalaimun idauenla i. I ari saupei ong irail masani:
Now large crowds were going with him. He turned and said to them,
26 Meamen kodo re i, ap so maliela sam a, o in a, o a paud, o na seri kan, o ri a ol, o li akan, o pil pein maur a, nan a sota pan kak ai tounpadak.
"If anyone comes to me, and does not hate his own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.
27 A meamen so kida a lopu o idauen ia do, a sota pan kak ai tounpadak.
Whoever does not bear his own cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.
28 Pwe is re omail, me pan kauada im en taulik eu, me sota pan mondi mas ap lamelame duen pwain a, ma a pan kak ong de so?
For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, to see if he has enough to complete it?
29 Pwe a de pasonedi, ap sota kak kanikiela; a karos, me udial, pan kaurureki i,
Or perhaps, when he has laid a foundation, and is not able to finish, everyone who sees begins to mock him,
30 Indada: Aramas men et pikikidi kauada im, ap sota kak kanikiela.
saying, 'This man began to build, and was not able to finish.'
31 De is nanmarki o, me pan mauin ong amen nanmarki, me sota pan mondi mas ap lamelame, ma a pan kak kaloekidi aramas nen aramas rianen?
Or what king, as he goes to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand?
32 A ma so, a pan kadarala men kadar akai, poekipoeki muei mau ni ara non doo pasang.
Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends an envoy, and asks for conditions of peace.
33 Nan iduen amen amen komail, me so muei sang meakaros, nan a sota pan kak ai tounpadak.
So therefore whoever of you who does not renounce all that he has, he cannot be my disciple.
34 Sol me mau, a ma sol sarasang, da me a pan kanomanom mau kida?
Salt is good, but if the salt becomes flat and tasteless, with what do you season it?
35 A solar mau ong nan sap, pil so nan pwel, pwe aramas kin kasela. Me salong a mia men rong, i en rong!
It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile. It is thrown out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear."
