< Lukas 18 >

1 Lao esa, Yesus nanori ana dedꞌenu nara nendiꞌ nekendandaaꞌ, fo ara hule-oꞌe, nda namaꞌetu sa, no nda male-maꞌa sa. Ara musi ramahere rakandoo neu Lamatuaꞌ.
Then he spoke a parable to them about how they should always pray and not become discouraged,
2 Dꞌudꞌuin taꞌo ia: “Sia kota esa hambu mana nggero-furiꞌ sa nda mana tao-afiꞌ neu Lamatualain sa. Ana nda tao-afiꞌ neu esa sa boe.
saying, “In a certain city there was a judge who did not fear God and did not respect people.
3 Sia naa o hambu ina falu sa akaꞌ neu noꞌe mana nggero-furiꞌ a nae, ‘Amaꞌ mana nggero-furiꞌ! Muꞌetuꞌ dedꞌea ngga no matetuꞌ, o!’
Now there was a widow in that city, and she came often to him, saying, 'Help me get justice against my opponent.'
4 Fefeun mana nggero-furiꞌ a nda tao-afiꞌ neu ina falu a sa. Te dodꞌoo ma ana bengge rena e ena. Boe ma ana dudꞌuꞌa nae, ‘Memaꞌ au ia nda tao-afiꞌ neu Lamatualain sa, lelenan fai neu atahori.
For a long time he was not willing to help her, but after a while he said to himself, 'Though I do not fear God or respect man,
5 Te ina falu ia tao langga ngga nambeta ena. Huu naa, malole lenaꞌ au uꞌetuꞌ dedꞌeat na no ndoos. Hokoꞌ na, ana akaꞌ nema tao naꞌabꞌebꞌenggeꞌ au nakandondooꞌ a.’
yet because this widow causes me trouble, I will help her get justice, so that she does not wear me out by her constant coming.'”
6 Naa, hei dꞌua sobꞌa mana nggero-furiꞌ dꞌeulakaꞌ naa oꞌolan.
Then the Lord said, “Listen to what the unjust judge says.
7 Mete ma dodꞌoo ma ana tulu-fali ina falu a, na, Lamatualain o nau tulu-fali atahori mana hule-oꞌe hatuꞌ-rerelon fo noꞌe tulu-faliꞌ sia E. Te Lamatuaꞌ nda mana eꞌo-lali fai a sa.
Now will not God also bring justice to his chosen ones who cry out to him day and night? Will he delay long over them?
8 Ana naꞌetuꞌ dedꞌeat nara lai-lai, Naa de Au ae utane taꞌo ia: mete ma Au, atahori Tebꞌe-Tebꞌeꞌ ia, baliꞌ uma ena, neꞌo Au feꞌe hambu undaa o atahori mamahereꞌ sia raefafoꞌ do hokoꞌ?”
I say to you that he will bring justice to them speedily. Even so, when the Son of Man comes, will he indeed find faith on the earth?”
9 Yesus dui seluꞌ nekendandaaꞌ sa, soꞌal atahori mana hii nananaru aon ma naloe-nadꞌae atahori laen ra. Ana dui nae,
Then he also spoke this parable to some who were persuaded in themselves that they were righteous and who despised other people,
10 “Hambu amaꞌ rua reu hule-oꞌe sia Ume Hule-oꞌe Huuꞌ a. Esa, atahori mia partei agama Farisi; esa fai, mana edꞌa bea. [Atahori Yahudi ra rae atahori Farisi ra, atahori meumareꞌ. Ma ara rae mana edꞌa bea ra atahori nda maloleꞌ ra sa.]
“Two men went up into the temple to pray—the one was a Pharisee and the other was a tax collector.
11 Losa ume hule-oꞌeꞌ ma, atahori Farisi a nambariiꞌ mesaꞌ ne ma hule-oꞌe nae, ‘Makasi Lamatuaꞌ, huu au ia, atahori maloleꞌ. Au nda deꞌulakaꞌ onaꞌ atahori laen ra sa. Au nda dadꞌi naꞌo sa. Au nda mana usuu-usetiꞌ sa. Au nda mana hohonggeꞌ sa. Makasi, Lamatuaꞌ, huu au o nda deꞌulakaꞌ onaꞌ mana edꞌa bea ia sa.
The Pharisee stood and prayed these things about himself, 'God, I thank you that I am not like other people—robbers, unrighteous people, adulterers—or even like this tax collector.
12 Au manggate puasa nggarei sa na lao rua. Ma au endi babꞌanggiꞌ esa mia sanahulu mia basa saa fo au hambuꞌ a.’ Atahori Farisi naa hule-oꞌe taꞌo naa.
I fast two times every week. I give tithes of all that I get.'
13 Te mana edꞌa bea a nambariiꞌ naꞌadꞌodꞌooꞌ sia dea-deaꞌ. Ana nda nambarani botiꞌ matan fo mete ataꞌ neu sa. Ana hule-oꞌe no beꞌutee langgan ma rala mambalulutuꞌ nae, O, Lamatualain. Kasian au, atahori mana masala-singgoꞌ ia! Fee ambon neu au dꞌei!’
But the tax collector, standing at a distance, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but hit his breast, saying, 'God, have mercy on me, a sinner.'
14 Naa, leleꞌ atahori karuaꞌ naa ra lao baliꞌ ume reu, mae bee ka maloleꞌ no Lamatualain? Atahori Farisi mana koaoꞌ a do, atahori mana edꞌa bea? Tantu Ana simbo no maloleꞌ mana edꞌa bea, mana naloe-nadꞌae ralan. Ma Ana nda tao-afiꞌ neu atahori Farisi a sa. Huu Lamatualain naꞌatutudꞌaꞌ atahori mana koaoꞌ ma nananaru atahori mana naloe-nadꞌae ralan.”
I say to you, this man went back down to his house justified rather than the other, because everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but everyone who humbles himself will be exalted.”
15 Lao esa, atahori ra oꞌo ro anadikiꞌ ra reu Yesus, fo Ana ndae liman neu se ma olaꞌ fee se papala-babꞌanggiꞌ. Yesus ana dedꞌenu nara rita taꞌo naa, ma ara ai atahori naa ra.
The people were also bringing to him their infants so that he might touch them, but when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them.
16 Te Yesus simbo nala anadikiꞌ mana rema risiꞌ E. Basa ma ana ai ana dedꞌenun nara nae, “Hela fo anadikiꞌ naa ra rema risiꞌ Au. Ama afiꞌ ai se. Misinedꞌa malolole! Huu atahori mana nae dadꞌi Lamatualain atahorin, ana musi namahena neuꞌ a Lamatualain, ona anadikiꞌ namahena neu ina-ama nara.”
But Jesus called them to him, saying, “Permit the little children to come to me, and do not forbid them. For the kingdom of God belongs to such ones.
Truly I say to you, whoever will not receive the kingdom of God like a child will definitely not enter it.”
18 Lao esa, hambu atahori Yahudi ra malanggan esa neu natane Yesus nae, “Ama Meser nenefee hadꞌa-hormat! Au musi tao taꞌo bee fo uhine ae bisa masoꞌ sorga uu fo usodꞌa ukundoo o Lamatualain?” (aiōnios g166)
A certain ruler asked him, saying, “Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
19 Boe ma Yesus nataa nae, “Taꞌo bee de moꞌe mae, ‘Mana nenefee hadꞌa-hormat’? Akaꞌ esaꞌ a nenefee hadꞌa-hormat, naeni Lamatualain.
Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good, except God alone.
20 Naa! Ho bubꞌuluꞌ ena, to, Lamatualain hohoro-lalanen mia fai dalahulun, oi: Afiꞌ hohongge; afiꞌ tati-mbau misa atahori; Afiꞌ miminaꞌo; Afi dadꞌi sakasii peko-lelekoꞌ; ma fee hadꞌa-hormat neu ina-ama mara.”
You know the commandments—do not commit adultery, do not kill, do not steal, do not testify falsely, honor your father and mother.”
21 Atahori naa nataa nae, “Tebꞌe, Amaꞌ! Au tungga hohoro-lalaneꞌ naa ra eniꞌ a aꞌana ngga.”
The ruler said, “All these things I have obeyed from the time I was a youth.”
22 Rena taꞌo naa ma, Yesus nae, “Malole! Te feꞌe hela dalaꞌ esa fai. Naeni, baliꞌ fo muu seo hendi basa hata-heto mara. Basa naa, muu babꞌanggi dꞌoiꞌ naa ra reu atahori mana tudꞌa-loloeꞌ ra. Dei fo baliꞌ uma fo tungga Au leo. Te dei fo Lamatualain bala-bꞌae fee nggo hata-hetoꞌ sia sorga.”
When Jesus heard that, he said to him, “One thing you still lack. You must sell all that you have and distribute it to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven—and come, follow me.”
23 Atahori naa rena taꞌo naa, ma ralan susa, huu suꞌin naen seli.
But when the ruler heard these things, he became extremely sad, for he was very rich.
24 Yesus mete ana laoꞌ no rala nambalulutu, ma Ana nafadꞌe ana dedꞌenun nara nae, “Atahori mamasuꞌiꞌ memaꞌ susa seli masoꞌ sorga neu.
Then Jesus, seeing him, became very sad and said, “How difficult it is for those who are rich to enter the kingdom of God!
25 Hita taꞌasasamaꞌ no dalaꞌ laen fai. Memaꞌ bꞌanda onta monaeꞌ a nda bisa lalaet rala neu tungga sosoot ndolan sa. Onaꞌ naa boe atahori mana namahenaꞌ a hata-heton, te nda namahena neu Lamatuaꞌ sa, ana o nda bisa masoꞌ sorga rala neu sa boe.
For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.”
26 Atahori mana rena Yesus olaꞌ taꞌo naa, ratane E rae, “Mete ma memaꞌ atahori mamasuꞌiꞌ susa taꞌo naa, na, atahori mataꞌ bee mana hambu masoi-masodꞌaꞌ?”
Those hearing it said, “Then who can be saved?”
27 Yesus nataa nae, “Soaꞌ neu atahori, memaꞌ dalaꞌ hetar nda bisa dadꞌi sa. Te soaꞌ neu Lamatualain basaꞌ e bisa dadꞌi.”
Jesus answered, “The things which are impossible with people are possible with God.”
28 Boe ma Petrus olaꞌ nae, “Amaꞌ! Hai lao hela basa hata-heto mara ena, fo tungga Amaꞌ. Te dei fo hai hambu saa?”
Peter said, “Well, we have left everything that is our own and have followed you.”
29 Yesus nataa nae, “Petrus! Rena malolole! Atahori mana lao hela umen, saon, odi-aꞌa nara, ama-ina nara, do ana nara, huu nalalao Lamatualain ue-tataos nara,
Jesus then said to them, “Truly, I say to you that there is no one who has left house, or wife, or brothers, or parents, or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God,
30 dei fo ana simbo baliꞌ naeꞌ lenaꞌ sia raefafoꞌ ia. Ma mete ma raefafoꞌ ia nateꞌe ena, ana o hambu nasodꞌa nakandoo no Lamatualain.” (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
who will not receive much more in this world, and in the world to come, eternal life.” (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
31 Yesus no ana dedꞌenun atahori kasanahulu rua ra fo neu olaꞌ mesaꞌ ne no se nae, “Basa hei bubꞌuluꞌ mae, ia naa hita lao tisiꞌ kota Yerusalem ena. Losa naa, basa dalaꞌ fo Lamatuaꞌ mana ola-ola nara suraꞌ feꞌesaꞌan soꞌal Atahori Matetuꞌ naa, dei fo dadꞌi onaꞌ saa mana nenesuraꞌ helaꞌ ena.
After he gathered the twelve to himself, he said to them, “See, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things that have been written by the prophets about the Son of Man will be accomplished.
32 Dei fo ara fee Au neu atahori deaꞌ mana nda ramahere neu Lamatualain sa. Boe ma ara raneneut Au, raꞌamamaeꞌ Au no mataꞌ-mataꞌ, puras miru neu Au,
For he will be given over to the Gentiles, and will be mocked, and shamefully treated, and spit upon.
33 filo Au, basa ma tao risa Au. Te fai katelun, ma Au usodꞌa baliꞌ.”
After whipping him, they will kill him, and on the third day he will rise again.”
34 Rena Yesus olaꞌ taꞌo naa ma, ana dedꞌenu nara bingun, huu ara nda feꞌe rahine dedꞌea-oꞌolaꞌ naa sosoan sa.
They understood none of these things, and this word was hidden from them, and they did not understand the things that were said.
35 Leleꞌ Yesus se rae losa kota Yeriko, hambu atahori pokeꞌ sa endoꞌ hule-huleꞌ sia dalaꞌ suun.
It came about that, as Jesus approached Jericho, a certain blind man was sitting by the road begging,
36 Leleꞌ ana rena atahori hetar tungga naa ma, ana natane nae, “We! Saa sia ia?”
and hearing a crowd going by, he asked what was happening.
37 Boe ma atahori rafadꞌe rae, “Yesus, mia Nasaret, laoꞌ tungga ia.”
They told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.
38 Atahori pokeꞌ naa rena nala ma, ana nggasi nahereꞌ nae, “Yesus! Mane Daud tititi-nonosin, e! Sue au dꞌei!”
So the blind man cried out, saying, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me.”
39 Atahori mana laoꞌ sia Yesus matan ai e rae nee-nee. Te ana boe nggasi nahereꞌ nae, “Mane Daud tititi-nonosin, e! Kasian au dꞌei!”
The ones who were walking ahead rebuked the blind man, telling him to be quiet. But he cried out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me.”
40 Leleꞌ Yesus rena taꞌo naa, ma Ana nambariiꞌ. Ma Ana denu atahori reu rala atahori pokeꞌ a. Losa matan ma, Yesus natane e nae,
Jesus stood still and commanded that the man be brought to him. Then when the blind man was near, Jesus asked him,
41 Ho nau Au tao saa fee nggo?” Ana nataa nae, “Amaꞌ! Au oꞌe fo fee au bisa mete ita.”
“What do you want me to do for you?” He said, “Lord, I want to receive my sight.”
42 Yesus nataa e nae, “Maloleꞌ boe. Huu mumuhere mae, Au bisa tao uhaiꞌ nggo, de ia naa ho bisa mita ena.”
Jesus said to him, “Receive your sight. Your faith has healed you.”
43 Aibꞌoiꞌ ma, atahori pokeꞌ a nita neuꞌ ena. Boe ma ana tungga Yesus no koa-kio Lamatualain. Basa atahori mana rita taꞌo naa, o koa-kio neu Lamatuaꞌ boe.
Immediately he received his sight and followed him, glorifying God. All the people, when they saw this, gave praise to God.
