Lukas 15
1 A SAUNOPWEI o me dipan akan karos ap kai dong i pwen rong i.
Then drew near to him all the tax collectors and sinners to hear him.
2 A Parisär o saunkawewe kan lipaned indada: Ol men et kin kompokeki me dipan akan o iang irail sakasak.
And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them.
3 A a kotin masani ong irail karaseras wet:
And he spoke this parable to them, saying,
4 Is aramas re omail me na sip epuki, a ma amen irail salongalar me so pan pwilikidi ir duekduemen nan wel ap raparapaki me salongalar, lao a pan diarada i?
What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he loseth one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he findeth it?
5 A lao diarada i, a kidang pon pop a pereperen.
And when he hath found it, he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
6 A lao pure dong deu a, a kin eker pena kompokepa kan o men imp a kan indai ong irail: Komail iang ia perenda, pwe i diaradar nai sip me salongalar.
And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying to them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost.
7 I indai ong komail, nan iduen peren pil pan mi nanlang pweki me dipan me ta men, me kalula, sang duekduemen me pung ap sota mau ong kalula.
I say to you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine righteous persons, who need no repentance.
8 O is li o me na denar eisok, eu ap salongala sang, me so pan isikada lamp o koke im o, o raparapaki mau, lao a pan diarada?
Either what woman having ten pieces of silver, if she loseth one piece, doth not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and seek diligently till she findeth it?
9 A lao diaradar i, a kin eker pena kompokepa kan o men imp a kan indai ong irail: Komail iang ia perenda, pwe i diarada ai denar o, me salongalar.
And when she hath found it, she calleth her friends and her neighbours together, saying, Rejoice with me; for I have found the piece which I had lost.
10 Nan I indai ong komail, iduen peren mi ren tounlang en Kot akan, pweki me dipan me ta men, me kalula.
Likewise, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.
11 A kotin masani: Aramas amen mia, me na ol riamen.
And he said, A certain man had two sons:
12 A me tikitik re’ra indai ong sam a: Sam ai, kotiki dong ia pwais ai en soso, me udan ai. I ari nene ong ira ara dipisou kan.
And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided to them his living.
13 A murin ran akai me tikitik ren ol oko ki pena a dipisou karos, ap sailokalang sap doo, wasa a kasela mal a kapwa kan nin tiak sued.
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 A lao kamuse weita a kapwa karos, lek lapalap ap pwaida sap o, i ari dupokalar.
And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.
15 I ap koieila dodok ren me pweledan sap o men. I ap kadarala i, pwen kamanga na pwik kan.
And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.
16 I ari inong iong, kangkang wantuka kai, me pwik kin namenam, a sota me mueid ong i.
And he was longing to fill his belly with the husks that the swine ate: and no man gave to him.
17 A kadekadeo i lao lolekongalar, ap indada: Ladu me depa mi ren sam ai, me kan ar manga me rak, a ngai pan mekila so kan ai manga.
And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father have bread enough and to spare, and I am perishing with hunger!
18 I pan uda purela ren sam ai indai ong i: Sam ai, i wiadar dip ong nanlang o ong komui.
I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee,
19 I solar warong adaneki noumui putak, komui ari wia kin ia ladu’mui men.
And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.
20 I ari uda purela ren sam a. A ni a mi wasa doo, sam a kilangada i, ap pokela, pitipiti dong i o polodi i, metik i.
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 A putak o indai ong i: Sam ai, i wiadar dip ong nanlang o ong komui, i solar war ong adaneki noumui putak.
And the son said to him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.
22 A sam masani ong na ladu kan: Wado likau kasampwal o kalikauwia kida i, o ki ong ring ni sondin pa a, o sut ni nä a kan.
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 O wado kau pul wi o kamela, pwe kitail en kang o pereperen.
And bring here the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry:
24 Pwe nai putak men et melar ap mauredar, a salongalar ap diarokadar. Irail ari perendar.
For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.
25 A na putak laud mi nan sap o. Ni a pure dong koren iong im o, ap rongadar kakaul o kakalek,
Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing.
26 Ap kalelapok ren ladu men duen ar wiawia.
And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.
27 A indang i: Ri omui ol puredo, sam omui ap kamela kau pul wi o, pwe a diaradar i memaur o kelail.
And he said to him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound.
28 A ap makara kida o sota men pedelong, sam a ap pedoi dong re a poekipoeki.
And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore his father came out, and entreated him.
29 A a sapeng indang sam a: Kom mangi, par toto me i papa komui, o i saikenta kawela eu omui masan akan, a kom sota kotiki ong ia kisin kut amen, i en kamadipeki kompoke pai kan.
And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither have I at any time transgressed thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends:
30 A noumui putak men et lao kodo, murin a kamuse wei a dipisou ren me sued akan, komui ap isik ong i kau pul wi o.
But as soon as this thy son had come, who hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.
31 Sam a ap masani ong i: Nai seri, koe kin mimieta re i ansau karos, o ai meakaros me om.
And he said to him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine.
32 Me mau, koe en peren o insenemau. Pwe ri om ol men et melar, ap mauredar, a salongalar ap diarokadar.
It was right that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.
