Lucas 18
1 At sinalita niya sa kanila ang isang talinghaga, na sila'y dapat magsipanalanging lagi, at huwag manganglupaypay;
And he made a story for them, the point of which was that men were to go on making prayer and not get tired;
2 Na sinasabi, May isang hukom sa isang bayan, na hindi natatakot sa Dios, at walang taong pinagpipitaganan:
Saying, There was a judge in a certain town, who had no fear of God or respect for man:
3 At sa bayang yaon ay may isang babaing bao; at siya'y naparoroong madalas sa kaniya, na sinasabi, Iganti mo ako sa aking kaalit.
And there was a widow in that town, and she kept on coming to him and saying, Give me my right against the man who has done me wrong.
4 At may ilang panahon na siya'y tumatanggi: datapuwa't pagkatapos ay sinabi sa kaniyang sarili, Bagaman di ako natatakot sa Dios, at di nagpipitagan sa tao:
And for a time he would not: but later, he said to himself, Though I have no fear of God or respect for man,
5 Gayon man, sapagka't nililigalig ako ng baong ito, ay igaganti ko siya, baka niya ako bagabagin ng kapaparito.
Because this widow is a trouble to me, I will give her her right; for if not, I will be completely tired out by her frequent coming.
6 At sinabi ng Panginoon, Pakinggan ninyo ang sinabi ng likong hukom.
And the Lord said, Give ear to the words of the evil judge.
7 At hindi baga, igaganti ng Dios ang kaniyang mga hirang, na sumisigaw sa kaniya sa araw at gabi, at siya'y may pagpapahinuhod sa kanila?
And will not God do right in the cause of his saints, whose cries come day and night to his ears, though he is long in doing it?
8 Sinasabi ko sa inyo, na sila'y madaling igaganti niya. Gayon ma'y pagparito ng Anak ng tao, makakasumpong kaya siya ng pananampalataya sa lupa?
I say to you that he will quickly do right in their cause. But when the Son of man comes, will there be any faith on earth?
9 At kaniyang sinalita naman ang talinghagang ito sa nagsisiasa sa kanilang sarili, na nangagpapanggap na sila'y matutuwid, at pinawawalang halaga ang lahat ng mga iba:
And he made this story for some people who were certain that they were good, and had a low opinion of others:
10 May dalawang lalaking nagsipanhik sa templo upang magsipanalangin; ang isa'y Fariseo, at ang isa'y maniningil ng buwis.
Two men went up to the Temple for prayer; one a Pharisee, and the other a tax-farmer.
11 Ang Fariseo ay nakatayo at nanalangin sa kaniyang sarili ng ganito, Dios, pinasasalamatan kita, na hindi ako gaya ng ibang mga tao, na mga manglulupig, mga liko, mga mapangalunya, o hindi man lamang gaya ng maniningil ng buwis na ito.
The Pharisee, taking up his position, said to himself these words: God, I give you praise because I am not like other men, who take more than their right, who are evil-doers, who are untrue to their wives, or even like this tax-farmer.
12 Makalawa akong nagaayuno sa isang linggo; nagbibigay ako ng ikapu ng lahat kong kinakamtan.
Twice in the week I go without food; I give a tenth of all I have.
13 Datapuwa't ang maniningil ng buwis, na nakatayo sa malayo, ay ayaw na itingin man lamang ang kaniyang mga mata sa langit, kundi dinadagukan ang kaniyang dibdib, na sinasabi, Dios, ikaw ay mahabag sa akin, na isang makasalanan.
The tax-farmer, on the other hand, keeping far away, and not lifting up even his eyes to heaven, made signs of grief and said, God, have mercy on me, a sinner.
14 Sinasabi ko sa inyo, Nanaog at umuwi sa kaniyang bahay ang taong ito na inaaaringganap kay sa isa: sapagka't ang bawa't nagmamataas sa kaniyang sarili ay mabababa; datapuwa't ang nagpapakababa sa kaniyang sarili ay matataas.
I say to you, This man went back to his house with God's approval, and not the other: for everyone who makes himself high will be made low and whoever makes himself low will be made high.
15 At dinala naman nila sa kaniya ang kanilang mga sanggol, upang kaniyang hipuin sila; datapuwa't nang mangakita ito ng mga alagad, ay sila'y sinaway nila.
And they took their children to him, so that he might put his hands on them: but when the disciples saw it, they said sharp words to them
16 Datapuwa't pinalapit sila ni Jesus sa kaniya, na sinasabi, Pabayaan ninyong magsilapit sa akin ang maliliit na bata, at huwag ninyo silang pagbawalan: sapagka't sa mga ganito nauukol ang kaharian ng Dios.
But Jesus sent for them, saying, Let the children come to me, and do not keep them away, for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
17 Katotohanang sinasabi ko sa inyo, Sinomang hindi tumanggap ng kaharian ng Dios na gaya ng isang maliit na bata, ay hindi siya papasok doon sa anomang paraan.
Truly I say to you, Whoever does not put himself under the kingdom of God like a little child, will not come into it at all.
18 At tinanong siya ng isang pinuno, na sinasabi, Mabuting Guro, anong gagawin ko upang magmana ng walang hanggang buhay? (aiōnios g166)
And a certain ruler put a question to him, saying, Good Master, what have I to do so that I may have eternal life? (aiōnios g166)
19 At sinabi sa kaniya ni Jesus, Bakit mo ako tinatawag na mabuti? walang mabuti, kundi isa, ang Dios lamang.
And Jesus said to him, Why do you say that I am good? No one is good, but only God.
20 Talastas mo ang mga utos, Huwag kang mangalunya, Huwag kang pumatay, Huwag kang magnakaw, Huwag kang sumaksi sa di katotohanan, Igalang mo ang iyong ama at ina.
You have knowledge of what the law says: Do not be untrue to your wife, Do not put anyone to death, Do not take what is not yours, Do not give false witness, Give honour to your father and mother.
21 At sinabi niya, Ginanap ko ang lahat ng mga bagay na ito buhat pa sa aking pagkabata.
And he said, All these things I have done from the time when I was a boy.
22 At nang marinig ito ni Jesus, ay sinabi niya sa kaniya, Isang bagay pa ang kulang sa iyo: ipagbili mo ang lahat mong tinatangkilik, at ipamahagi mo sa mga dukha, at magkakaroon ka ng kayamanan sa langit: at pumarito ka, sumunod ka sa akin.
And Jesus, hearing it, said to him, One thing you still have need of; get money for your goods, and give it away to the poor, and you will have wealth in heaven; and come after me.
23 Datapuwa't nang marinig niya ang mga bagay na ito, siya'y namanglaw na lubha; sapagka't siya'y totoong mayaman.
But at these words he became very sad, for he had great wealth.
24 At sa pagmamasid sa kaniya ni Jesus ay sinabi, Pagkahiraphirap na makapasok sa kaharian ng Dios ang mga may kayamanan!
And Jesus, looking at him, said, How hard it is for those who have wealth to get into the kingdom of God!
25 Sapagka't magaan pa sa isang kamelyo ang pumasok sa butas ng isang karayom, kay sa isang taong mayaman na pumasok sa kaharian ng Dios.
It is simpler for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a man who has much money to come into the kingdom of God.
26 At sinabi ng mga nakarinig nito, Sino nga kaya ang makaliligtas?
And those who were present said, Then who may have salvation?
27 Datapuwa't sinabi niya, Ang mga bagay na di mangyayari sa mga tao ay may pangyayari sa Dios.
But he said, Things which are not possible with man are possible with God.
28 At sinabi ni Pedro, Narito, iniwan namin ang aming sarili, at nagsisunod sa iyo.
And Peter said, See, we have given up what is ours to come after you.
29 At sinabi niya sa kanila, Katotohanang sinasabi ko sa inyo, Walang taong nagiwan ng bahay, o asawang babae, o mga kapatid, o mga magulang o mga anak, dahil sa kaharian ng Dios,
And he said to them, Truly I say to you, There is no man who has given up house or wife or brothers or father or mother or children, because of the kingdom of God,
31 At isinama niya ng bukod ang labingdalawa, at sa kanila'y sinabi, Narito, nagsisiahon tayo sa Jerusalem, at ang lahat ng mga bagay na isinulat ng mga propeta ay mangagaganap sa Anak ng tao.
And he took with him the twelve and said to them, Now we are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things which were said by the prophets will be done to the Son of man.
32 Sapagka't siya'y ibibigay sa mga Gentil, at siya'y aalimurahin, at duduwahaginin, at luluraan.
For he will be given up to the Gentiles, and will be made sport of and put to shame:
33 At kanilang papaluin at papatayin siya: at sa ikatlong araw ay muling magbabangon siya.
And he will be given cruel blows and put to death, and on the third day he will come back to life.
34 At wala silang napagunawa sa mga bagay na ito; at ang sabing ito ay nalingid sa kanila, at hindi nila napagtalastas ang sinabi.
But they did not take in the sense of any of these words, and what he said was not clear to them, and their minds were not able to see it.
35 At nangyari, na nang nalalapit na sila sa Jerico, isang bulag ay nakaupo sa tabi ng daan na nagpapalimos:
And it came about that when he got near Jericho, a certain blind man was seated by the side of the road, making requests for money from those who went by.
36 At pagkarinig na nagdaraan ang maraming tao, ay itinanong niya kung ano ang ibig sabihin noon.
And hearing the sound of a great number of people going by, he said, What is this?
37 At sinabi nila sa kaniya, na nagdaraan si Jesus na taga Nazaret.
And they said to him, Jesus of Nazareth is going by.
38 At siya'y nagsisigaw, na sinasabi, Jesus, ikaw na anak ni David, mahabag ka sa akin.
And he said in a loud voice, Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me.
39 At siya'y sinaway ng nangasa unahan, upang siya'y tumahimik: datapuwa't siya'y lalong nagsisigaw, Ikaw na anak ni David, mahabag ka sa akin.
And those who were in front made protests and said to him, Be quiet: but he said all the more, O Son of David, have mercy on me.
40 At si Jesus ay tumigil, at ipinagutos na dalhin siya sa kaniya: at nang mailapit siya, ay itinanong niya sa kaniya,
And Jesus, stopping, gave orders that he was to come to him, and when he came near, he said to him,
41 Anong ibig mo na sa iyo'y gawin ko? At sinabi niya, Panginoon, na tanggapin ko ang aking paningin.
What would you have me do for you? And he said, Lord, that I may be able to see again.
42 At sinabi sa kaniya ni Jesus, Tanggapin mo ang iyong paningin: pinagaling ka ng pananampalataya mo.
And Jesus said, See again: your faith has made you well.
43 At pagdaka'y tinanggap niya ang kaniyang paningin, at sumunod sa kaniya, na niluluwalhati ang Dios: at pagkakita nito ng buong bayan, ay nangagpuri sa Dios.
And straight away he was able to see, and he went after him, giving glory to God; and all the people when they saw it gave praise to God.
