Luka 16
1 Antele abhabholele asambelezwe bhakwe, “Pali no mntu omo alitakiri alino wakili wakwe, ono atakwilwe hwamwahale anankanya eshoma shakwe.
And he said also unto the disciples, There was a certain rich man, who had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he was wasting his goods.
2 Wakwizya wabhola, “Nongwa wele ezi zyehwovwa juu ya hwiliwe? Fumia ehesabu eye owakili waho afwanaje sowezizye abhe wakili nantele.'
And he called him, and said unto him, What is this that I hear of thee? render the account of thy stewardship; for thou canst be no longer steward.
3 Ola owakili wayanga mumwoyo gwa kwao, Embombe wele, nkashere ogosi wane anefwa ouwakili? Alime sebwezizye alabhe, elola esoni.
And the steward said within himself, What shall I do, seeing that my lord taketh away the stewardship from me? I have not strength to dig; to beg I am ashamed.
4 Endimenye lyembabhombe ili nabhanefwe huwakili bhankaribizyaje mkhaya zyabho.
I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.
5 Wabhakwizya bhabhakhopile amadeni aga gosi wakwe shila omo wabhora owhwande, 'odayiwa nogosi wane?'
And calling to him each one of his lord’s debtors, he said to the first, How much owest thou unto my lord?
6 Wayanga eshipimo mia eshe mafuta wabhora 'ege ehati yaho simba hamsini.'
And he said, A hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bond, and sit down quickly and write fifty.
7 antele wabhora owamwaho na we odaiwa?' wayanga 'makanda mia age ngano wabhoro ega ehati yaho simba themanini.'
Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, A hundred measures of wheat. He saith unto him, Take thy bond, and write fourscore.
8 Ola gosi wasomba owakili dhalimu shashila shabhombile hubusara. Afwanaje abhana abhensi ene katika epapo yabho bhebho bhabha ne busara ashile abhana abhe lukhozyo. (aiōn g165)
And his lord commended the unrighteous steward because he had done wisely: for the sons of this world are for their own generation wiser than the sons of the light. (aiōn g165)
9 Nane embabhola bhombelaji abhe rafiki weshoma eshe udhalimu ili nehaibhanemo bhabhakaribizyaje hukhaya eye umilele. (aiōnios g166)
And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends by means of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when it shall fail, they may receive you into the eternal tabernacles. (aiōnios g166)
10 Yali mwamini lyalili lidodo tee abhamwamini hwi gosi nantele. na yali dhalimu hwidolo abhabhe dhalimu hata hwigosi nantele.
He that is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much: and he that is unrighteous in a very little is unrighteous also in much.
11 Basi nkashile amwe semwali bhaminifu hushoma eshe udhalimu wenu wabhapele amana eshoma eshelyoli?
If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true [riches]?
12 Na nkashile semwali bhaminifu hushoma esha mntu owenje wenu yabhabhapele yeli yahulimwe mwemwe?
And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another’s, who will give you that which is your own?
13 Nomo obhombambo yabhabhambele agosi bhabhele, afwanaje abhahuvitwe ono nahusongwe ono, au abhakhatane nono na hudhalau ono. Sawezizye hutumishile Ongolobhe ne shoma.”
No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
14 Basi Mafarisayo, abhene bhebho bhasogwa ehela bhahovwezye ago gonti bha dhihaki.
And the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, heard all these things; and they scoffed at him.
15 Wabhabhola, “Mwe mwemwe mhwidai elyoli hwitagalila elya bhantu, lelo Ongolobhe abhamenye amoyo genyu afwanaje lyalisobwa hwa bhanadamu uhuvisya hwitagalila elya Ngolobhe.
And he said unto them, Ye are they that justify yourselves in the sight of men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is exalted among men is an abomination in the sight of God.
16 Etorati na kuwa vyahali mpaka Yohani afume. Ouwakati wowo enongwa enyinza ezye umwene owa Ngolobhe zitangaziwa, na shila mntu ahwiyinjizya humaha.
The law and the prophets [were] until John: from that time the gospel of the kingdom of God is preached, and every man entereth violently into it.
17 Lelo nafu zaidi emwanya nensi vyepe ashile aje etanguliwe enukta emo eye torati.
But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one tittle of the law to fall.
18 Shila yahuleha oshe wakwe na humweje oshe owenje azini wape yahumwega yalehwilye nolume wakwe anazini.
Every one that putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and he that marrieth one that is put away from a husband committeth adultery.
19 Pali ono mntu takili akwete nu menda ege rangi ye zambarau na kitani nyinza na lye ensiku zyonti kwa anasa.
Now there was a certain rich man, and he was clothed in purple and fine linen, faring sumptuously every day:
20 No pena omo itawa lyakwe yo Lazaro abhehwelya palyango gwakwe ali na malonda gaminji.
and a certain beggar named Lazarus was laid at his gate, full of sores,
21 Wape ali akitamani akutiziwe amambo gagalagaliye pameza eyola otakiri hata embwa zyeza zya guna amaronda gakwe.
and desiring to be fed with the [crumbs] that fell from the rich man’s table; yea, even the dogs came and licked his sores.
22 Yabha ola opena wagwa wegwano malaika paka pashifiwa esha Ibulahimu ola otakiri wape wafwa wa syelwa.
And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and that he was carried away by the angels into Abraham’s bosom: and the rich man also died, and was buried.
23 Basi ohula huzimu abhosezye amaso gakwe nali pamarabha walola Ibulahimu sahutari no Lazaro pashifua shakwe. (Hadēs g86)
And in Hades he lifted up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. (Hadēs g86)
24 Walila wayanga, 'Ee baba Ibulahimu, sajire osontezye oLazaro atobhezye echa eye shidole shakwe mmenze, aluburudishe omele lwane; afwanaje elabha mu mwoto omu.
And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am in anguish in this flame.
25 Ibulahimu wayanga, 'Mwanawane kumbuhaga eyaje awe waposheye amambo aminza gahuliwe katika amaisha gaho, no Lozaro shesho apete amabhibhi na eshi omwahale aliepa afarijiwa na awe ovwalala.
But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and Lazarus in like manner evil things: but now here he is comforted, and thou art in anguish.
26 Na zaidi yego kati yetu ate na mwe libhehwelwe irende igosi, ili bhala bhabhafuma ohwo abhale hwilimwe bhagajeshile wala abhantu abhahwilimwe bhagaje shile ahwenze hwititi.'
And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, that they that would pass from hence to you may not be able, and that none may cross over from thence to us.
27 Wayanga, 'Basi Baba ehulabha, osontezye akhaya hwa baba wane
And he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father’s house;
28 afwanaje endi na holo bhasanu ili abhashudile bhasije bhape nantele bhafihe mahali epa pamalabha. '
for I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
29 Ibulahimu wayanga, 'Bhalinabho oMusa na kuwa. Na bhabhovwe ebho.
But Abraham saith, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
30 Wayanga, 'la, Baba Ibrahimu, lelo nkashile abhabhabhalile omntu yafuma hwa bhafwa bhanzarambe.'
And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one go to them from the dead, they will repent.
31 Wabhola nkashele sebhabhowa aMusa nu kuwa sebhanzashawishiwe hata omntu nkashile azyoshe afume wabhafwe.
And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, if one rise from the dead.
