Lukaj 10
1 MURIN mepukat Kaun o pil kotin piladar ijiakan o porone irail wei mo a ni wad riamen, en kakan jili nan kanim laud o tikitik kan, waja me a pein pan kotilan ia.
After this, the Master appointed seventy-two other disciples, and sent them on as his messengers, two and two, in advance, to every town and place that he was himself intending to visit.
2 A kotin majani on irail: Rak me kalaimun, a toun dodok me malaulau; poeki ren Kaun en rak, en kadarala toun dodok nan a rak.
‘The harvest,’ he said, ‘is abundant, but the labourers are few. Therefore pray to the owner of the harvest to send labourers to gather in his harvest.
3 Komail kola; kilan, I kadar komail la dueta jippul akan nan pun en kidi en wei akan.
Now, go. Remember, I am sending you out as my messengers like lambs among wolves.
4 Komail der wewa ed en moni, de ed en jailok, de jut, o der ranamau on meamen nani al o.
Do not take a purse with you, or a bag, or sandals; and do not stop to greet anyone on your journey.
5 A ma komail pan pedelon on nan im eu, komail pan inda maj: Popol en mimi nan im wet!
Whatever house you go to stay at, begin by praying for a blessing on it.
6 A ma popol amen mi waja o, omail popol pan mimieta re a, a ma jo, omail popol pan pure don komail.
Then, if anyone there is deserving of a blessing, your blessing will rest on him; but if not, it will come back on yourselves.
7 A komail pan mimieta nan im ota, o mana o nim, me mi re’rail pwe toun dodok me waron pwain a. Komail der pedoi jan nan eu im ap kolon on nan eu.
Remain at that same house, and eat and drink whatever they offer you; for the worker is worth their wages. Do not keep changing from one house to another.
8 A ma komail pan pedelon nan eu kanim, o re pan kajamo komail, i waja komail pan tunole, me pan wijike don komail.
Whatever town you visit, if the people welcome you, eat what is set before you;
9 O kakelada me jomau kan, me mi waja o, o kaire kin irail: Wein Kot koren don komail.
cure the sick there, and tell people that the kingdom of God is close at hand.
10 A ma komail pan pedelon nan eu kanim, o re jota pan kajamo komail, i waja komail pan pedoi nani al indada:
But, whatever town you go to visit, if the people do not welcome you, go out into its streets and say
11 Pil pwel par, me ko don kit nan omail kanim, jipede don komail; ari jo, komail en aja, me wein Kot koren don komail.
“We wipe off the dust of your town which has clung to Our feet; still, be assured that the kingdom of God is close at Hand.”
12 I indai on komail, nan a pan manai on Jodom ni ran o jan kanim o.
I tell you that the doom of Sodom will be more bearable on that day than the doom of that town.
13 Juedi on uk Korajim! Juedi on Petjaida! Pwe ma manaman akan, me wiaui on uk er, wiaui on Tiruj o Jidon, nan melel, re pan kalula nan tuk en likau o nan paj.
Alas for you, Chorazin! Alas for you, Bethsaida! For, if the miracles which have been done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have sat in sackcloth and ashes and repented long ago.
14 A a pan manai on Tiruj o Jidon ni kadeik o jan komail.
Yet the doom of Tyre and Sidon will be more bearable at the judgment than yours.
And you, Capernaum! Will you exalt yourself to heaven? You will be flung down to Hades. (Hadēs g86)
16 Me roneron komail, nan a kin roneron ia; o me mamaleki komail, nan a kin mamaleki ia. O me mamaleki, ia, nan a kin mamaleki, me kadar ia do.
Anyone who listens to you is listening to me, and anyone who rejects you is rejecting me; while the person who rejects me is rejecting him who sent me as his messenger.’
17 Me ijiakan ap puredo, pereperen potoan on: Main, pil tewil akan udi on kit ni mar omui.
When the seventy-two returned, they exclaimed joyfully, ‘Master, even the demons submit to us when we use your name.’
18 A kotin majani on irail: I kilaner Jatan likamata liol a pupedi jan nanlan.
And Jesus replied, ‘I have had visions of Satan, fallen, like lightning from the heavens.
19 Kilan, I ki on komail manaman, en tiakedi jerpent o jkorpion, o en poedi kel en imwintiti karoj. O jota meakot pan kajuedi on komail,
Remember, I have given you the power to trample on snakes and scorpions, and to meet all the strength of the Enemy. Nothing will ever harm you in any way.
20 Ari jo, komail der peren kida, me nen akan kin udi on komail, a komail peren kida me ad omail intinidier nanlan.
Yet do not rejoice in the fact that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names have been enrolled in heaven.’
21 Ni auer ota Iejuj kotin perenda ni nen e majani: I kapina komui, Jam ai, kaun pan lan o jappa, me komui okila mepukat jan me lolekon o koiok kan, ap kajale on jeri pwelel akan! Ei Jam ai, pwe iduen me komui kupukupura.
At that same time, moved to exultation by the Holy Spirit, Jesus said: ‘I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that, though you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, you have revealed them to the childlike! Yes, Father, I thank you that this has seemed good to you.
22 Meakaroj muei on ia er jan ren Jam ai, o jota me aja japwilim a ol, pwe Jam eta. O jota me aja Jam, pwe japwilim a ol eta, o me japwilim a Ol pan kajale on.
Everything has been committed to me by my Father; nor does anyone know who the Son is, except the Father, or who the Father is, except the Son and those to whom the Son may choose to reveal him.’
23 I ap kotin jaupei don tounpadak kan, majani on irail eta: Meid pai por en maj akan me udial, me komail udialer.
Then, turning to his disciples, Jesus said to them alone, ‘Blessed are the eyes that see what you are seeing;
24 Pwe I indai on komail, jaukop o nanmarki kan toto anane udial, me komail kin ududial, a re jota kilaner; a re men ronada, me komail kin roneron, ap jota ronadar.
for, I tell you, many prophets and kings wished for the sight of the things which you are seeing, yet never heard them.’
25 A kilan, jaunkawewe men ap uda, kajonejon i potoan on: Jaunpadak, da me i en wiada. Pwen jojoki maur ioutuk? (aiōnios g166)
Just then a student of the Law came forward to test Jesus further. ‘Teacher,’ he said, ‘what must I do if I am to gain eternal life?’ (aiōnios g166)
26 A kotin majani on i: Da me intinidier nan kapun o? Daduen om dondoropwe?
‘What is said in the Law?’ answered Jesus. ‘What do you read there?’
27 A japen indada: Koe en pokon Kaun om Kot monion omunjok, o nen om unjok, o kel om unjok. o om Iamelam unjok, o men imp om dueta pein koe.
His reply was – ‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbour as you love yourself.’
28 A kotin majani on i: Koe meid japen inen, wiada mepukat, a koe pan maurela.
‘You have answered right,’ said Jesus, ‘Do that, and you will live.’
29 A ap men ak kapunki pein I indan Iejuj: A ij men imp ai?
But the man, wanting to justify himself, said to Jesus, ‘And who is my neighbour?’
30 A Iejuj kotin japen majani: Aramaj amen momait jan Ierujalem kodila leriko ap lodi on lolap akai, me ter jan a likau kan, o kame i, rap koieila; i ari pan mela.
To which Jesus replied, ‘A man was once going down from Jerusalem to Jericho when he fell into the hands of robbers, who stripped him of everything, and beat him, and went away leaving him half dead.
31 A jamero amen momaitela nani al ota. A ni a kilan i, ap daulul wei jan.
As it chanced, a priest was going down by that road. He saw the man, but passed by on the opposite side.
32 A leap amen pil dueta. Ni a leler waja o, kilan i, ap daulul wei jan.
A Levite, too, did the same; he came up to the spot, but, when he saw the man, passed by on the opposite side.
33 A ol en Jamaria amen jailok jili ap pil weid waja o. Ni a kilaner i ap pokela,
But a Samaritan, traveling that way, came upon the man, and, when he saw him, he was moved with compassion.
34 Kola re a, o kidim pena a pwal akan, ap ki on le o wain lole o kamondi i pon dake pa man o, wala nan im en kairu eu, apapwali i.
He went to him and bound up his wounds, dressing them with oil and wine, and then put him on his own mule, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
35 Manda a pan jamala, ap ki on kaun en im o denar riau indan i: Apapwali i! A ma mekij pan dauli, i pan kapunala, ni ai pan puredo.
The next day he took out two silver coins and gave them to the innkeeper. “Take care of him,” he said, “and whatever more you may spend I will myself repay you on my way back.”
36 A ij ren ir jilimen, me koe wiaki men impan ol o, me lodi on lolap oko?
Now which, do you think, of these three men,’ asked Jesus, ‘proved himself a neighbour to the man who fell into the robbers’ hands?’
37 A japen: Me wiadar dodok kadek on i. Iejuj ap kotin majani on i: Ari, kowei alajan!
‘The one that took pity on him,’ was the answer; at which Jesus said, ‘Go and do the same yourself.’
38 A kadekadeo ni ar kotin jailokela, a kotilon on nan kijin kanim eu. Li amen mi waja o, ad a Marta, me kajamo i Ion on nan im a.
As they continued their journey, Jesus came to a village, where a woman named Martha welcomed him to her house.
39 Ri a li amen mia, me ad a Maria, me momod ni aluwilu en Iejuj, roneron a majan.
She had a sister called Mary, who seated herself at the Master’s feet, and listened to his teaching;
40 A Marta kajopijokki pein i a papa i. I ari potodo potoan on: Main, re jota kotin kupuroki ri ai li, me jota kin ian ia dodok? Re kotin padaki on i, en jauaja ia.
but Martha was distracted by the many preparations that she was making. So she went up to Jesus and said, ‘Master, do you approve of my sister’s leaving me to make preparations alone? Tell her to help me.’
41 A Iejuj kotin japen majani on i: Marta, Marta, koe meid nonki o jopijokki okotme.
‘Martha, Martha,’ replied the Master, ‘you are anxious and trouble yourself about many things;
42 A me ta kot me kajampwal. Maria piladar pwaij mau, me jota pan katia jan.
but only a few are necessary, or rather one. Mary has chosen the good part, and it will not be taken away from her.’
