Lukas 5
1 A KADEKADEO ni en aramas toto ar tanga dong imp a, pwen rongerong masan en Kot, a kotikot pon kailan le en Kaliläa,
On one occasion the crowd was pressing on Him and listening to God's Message, while He was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret.
2 Ap masani kisin sop riapot, me peipei nan le o, a saused akai keredi sanger widen ar uk kai.
He, however, saw two fishing-boats drawn up on the beach (for the men had gone away from them and were washing the nets),
3 I ari kotida pon apot ren sop oko, war en Simon, kotin poeki re a, en kaiieila ekis sang ni sap o. I ari kaipokedi, kawewe ong aramas sang nan sop o.
and going on board one of them, which was Simon's He asked him to push out a little from land. Then He sat down and taught the crowd of people from the boat.
4 I lao kaimwisokela a masan, ap masani ong Simon: Seisei kowei wasa lol, ap kaduedi oma uk kan, pwe koma en saikidi.
When He had finished speaking, He said to Simon, "Push out into deep water, and let down your nets for a haul."
5 A Simon sapeng potoan ong i: Maing, se laiter pong lao lel wasa ran, ap sota saik at, ari so ar masan, me i pan kaduekidi uk en.
"Rabbi," replied Peter, "all night long we have worked hard and caught nothing; but at your command I will let down the nets."
6 Irail lao wiadar met, rap oro pena mam toto; ara uk ari ola.
This they did, and enclosed a vast number of fish; and their nets began to break.
7 Irail ari olole kis arail oko, me mi nin apot sop, pwe re en kodo sauasa irail. Irail ari kodo, kadirela sop riapot, ira ari pan mauidi.
So they signalled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them; they came, and they filled both the boats so that they almost sank.
8 Simon Petrus lao kilanger mepukat, ap poridi sang Iesus, potoan ong: Maing, re kotiwei sang ia, pwe aramas sued amen ngai.
When Simon Peter saw this, he fell down at the knees of Jesus, and exclaimed, "Master, leave my boat, for I am a sinful man."
9 Pwe a puriamuiki o ir karos, me iang i, pweki saik ar, me re saikidi.
(For he was astonished and terrified--he and all his companions--at the haul of fish which they had taken;
10 A pil dueta Iakopus o Ioanes nain Sepedäus ol oko, me iang Simon. Iesus ap kotin masani ong Simon: Koe der masak, pwe sang ansau wet kokola koe pan saikidi aramas.
and so were Simon's partners James and John, the sons of Zabdi.) But Jesus replied to Simon, "Fear not: from this time you shall be a catcher of men."
11 Irail kaikilong ong liman sap ar sop oko, re ap kasela karos, idauendo i.
Then, after bringing their boats to land, they left everything and followed Him.
12 Kadekadeo ni a kotikot nan eu kanim, kilang, ol amen mia, me dir en tuketuk. A lao kilanger Iesus, ap pupekidi mas a, poeki re a potoan ong: Maing, ma re kotin kupura, re pan kak ong kamakel ia da.
On another occasion, when He was in one of the towns, there was a man there covered with leprosy, who, seeing Jesus, threw himself at His feet and implored Him, saying, "Sir, if only you are willing, you are able to make me clean."
13 I ari kotin kapawei lim a sair i masani: I men, koe en makelekel. Ari, a tuketuk madang modi sang.
Reaching out His hand and touching him, Jesus said, "I am willing; be cleansed!" And instantly the leprosy left him.
14 I ari kotin inapwiedi i, en der indang meamen; a kola kasale ong pein uk samero ko, o kida mairong, pweki om makelekeladar, me Moses masanier, pwen kadede ong irail.
He ordered him to tell no one. "But go," He said, "show yourself to the Priest, and make the offering for your purification which Moses appointed, as evidence for them."
15 A a madang indand sili o pokon kalaimun pokon pena, pwen rong i o kelailada sang ar somau kan.
But all the more the report about Him spread abroad, and great multitudes crowded to hear Him and to be cured of their diseases;
16 I ari kotin kelepela nan sap tan, pwen laolao.
but Jesus Himself constantly withdrew into the Desert and there prayed.
17 Kadekadeo eu ran ni a kotin kaukaweweda, Parisär o saunkawewe kan, me mod imp a, irail pwarado sang kanim en Kaliläa o Iudäa karos o sang Ierusalem; a roson en Kaun o pwili wei sang i, kakelada amen amen.
One day He was teaching, and there were Pharisees and teachers of the Law sitting there who had come from every village in Galilee and Judaea and from Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was present for Him to cure people.
18 A kilang, ol akai roado aramas amen me kokon madak, rap raparapaki duen ar pan kak walang lole, pwilikidi mo a.
And a party of men came carrying a palsied man on a bed, and they endeavoured to bring him in and lay him before Jesus.
19 A ni ar sota kak diar wasa, me re pan kai dong impa pweki pokon o, rap dauda pon im o, kakiridi i nan os iangaki pet, lao nan pung arail mon Iesus.
But when they could find no way of doing so because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and let him down through the tiling--bed and all--into the midst, in front of Jesus.
20 A lao mangi arail poson, ap kotin masani: Aramas o, dip om akan lapwa sang uk er.
He saw their faith and said to him, "Friend, your sins are forgiven."
21 A saunkawewe o Parisär akan ap mongemongeloleki indada: Is men et, me kin lalaue? Is me kak lapwada dip akan, pwe Kot eta?
Then the Scribes and Pharisees began to cavil, asking, "Who is this, uttering blasphemies? Who but God alone can forgive sins?"
22 A Iesus lao mangi ar mongemongelol, ap kotin sapeng masani ong irail: Da me komail kin mongemongeloleki lol omail?
Well aware of their reasonings, Jesus answered their questions by asking in turn, "What is this that you are debating in your hearts?
23 Da me mongai ren inda, dip om akan lapwa sang uk er, de inda, uda, aluwei?
Which is easier? --to say, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Rise and walk'?
24 A pwe komail en asa, me Nain aramas manaman ong lapwada dip akan nin sappa, iei me a kotin masanieki ong me kokon madak: I indai ong uk, uda, ale ki om kola deu om!
But to prove to you that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins" --Turning to the paralytic He said, "I bid you, Rise, take up your bed, and go home."
25 A madang uda mo’rail, kida a pet, me a wonon poa, koieilang im a kapikapinga Kot.
Instantly he stood up in their presence, took up the mattress on which he had been lying, and went away to his home, giving glory to God.
26 Ir karos ap puriamui kida o kapikapinga Kot, o dire kila masak indada: Ran wet kitail kilanger me kapwuriamui melel.
Amazement seized them all. "Glory to God!" was the abiding feeling. Yet fear flashed through their minds and they said, "We have seen strange things to-day."
27 Murin mepukat a kotila sang wasa o, ap masani saunopwei amen, ad a Lewi momod nan wasan nopwei, ap masan ong i: Idauen ia do!
After this He went out and noticed a tax-gatherer, Levi by name, sitting at the Toll office; and He said to him, "Follow me."
28 I ari kasela a meakaros, uda, idauenla i.
He rose, left everything, and followed Him.
29 Lewi ari wiada kamadip lapalap ong i nan im a; a saunopwei ape me toto, me iang i ni tepel.
Levi also gave a great entertainment at his house in honour of Jesus, and there was a large party of tax-gatherers and others at table with them.
30 A Parisär o arail saunkawewe kan lipaned ong sapwilim a tounpadak kan indada: Da me komail iangaki saunopwei o me dipan akan manga o nim.
This led the Pharisees and Scribes of their party to expostulate with His disciples and ask, "Why are you eating and drinking with these tax-gatherers and notorious sinners?"
31 Iesus ap kotin sapeng masani ong irail: Me kelail sota mau ong saunwini, pwe me somau kan.
But Jesus replied to them, "It is not men in good health who require a physician, but the sick.
32 I kodon ekeker dong kalula me dipan akan a kaidin me pung kan.
I have not come to call the righteous to repentance, but sinners."
33 Irail ap potoan ong i: Da me tounpadak en Ioanes akan kaisesol pan pak toto o re kapakap toto, o pil dueta en Parisär akan, a sapwilim omui kan kin tungole o nim?
Again they said to Him, "John's disciples fast often and pray, as do also those of the pharisees; but yours eat and drink."
34 A Iesus kotin masani ong irail: O komail sota kak ki ong toun kapar en kamadip en kapapaud en kaisesol arain ol kamod mi re’rail!
"Can you compel the bridal party to fast," replied Jesus, "so long as they have the bridegroom among them?
35 A eu ran ol kamod pan peuka wei sang irail, i ran oko re ap pan kaisesol.
But a time for this will come, when the Bridegroom has been taken away from them: then, at that time, they will fast."
36 A kotin masani ong irail karaseras eu: Sota me kin deik ong likau kap ni likau maring; a ma ei, a pan ter pasang likau kap; a kisan likau kap pil sota pan paroki ong likau maring.
He also spoke in figurative language to them. "No one," He said, "tears a piece from a new garment to mend an old one. Otherwise he would not only spoil the new, but the patch from the new would not match the old.
37 A sota me kin kodie ong wain kap nan ed maring; a ma ei, wain kap pan ter pasang ed akan, ap wudokila o ed akan pan ola.
Nor does any one pour new wine into old wine-skins. Otherwise the new wine would burst the skins, the wine itself would be spilt, and the skins be destroyed.
38 A re kin kodie ong wain kap nan ed kap, ira karos ap nekinek mau.
But new wine must be put into fresh wineskins.
39 O sota, me kin nim sang wain maring, pan mauki wain kap, pwe a kin inda: Me maring o me mau sang.
Nor does any one after drinking old wine wish for new; for he says, 'The old is better.'"
