< Luk 18 >

1 Vbvrikunamv Jisu ninyigv lvbwlaksu vdwa minchisinam go minla tamsarto bunua kumbwngla doomu dubv okv vdwloka miangbv mvngsu madubv.
He also spoke a parable to them that they must always pray and not give up,
2 “Banggu guloka kvba japrianv nyi go dooto nw yvvnyika mvngdv manvgo okv Pwknvyarnv nyika busu manvgo.
saying, “There was a judge in a certain city who didn’t fear God and didn’t respect man.
3 Okv ho banggu akin hoka hvngmi goka dooto hv ninyi gvlo aaki nvgo okv ninyigv jvjv nga raabwngto vbv minto ‘nga nyiru nvnga ridarminsu dubv nga ridur labv!’
A widow was in that city, and she often came to him, saying, ‘Defend me from my adversary!’
4 Japria jinv angv megojego riji jimakv vla mingkwngto, vbvritola anyung jemanga nw atuv minsuto, ‘Ngo Pwknvyarnvnyi busu manv vmalo nyi ha mvngdv manv gubv rijvka,
He wouldn’t for a while; but afterward he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect man,
5 so hvngmi gv nga adwkaku jinam mvnwng gv lvgalo ngo ninyigv jvjv nga paadu kubv kaajire. Ngo vbv riji mabolo nw aabwngre okv ataranya lo ngaaka gvvkuji!’”
yet because this widow bothers me, I will defend her, or else she will wear me out by her continual coming.’”
6 Okv Ahtu minbwngto, “Japrianv nyi alvmanv gv minam a tvvtoka.
The Lord said, “Listen to what the unrighteous judge says.
7 Vjak, Pwknvyarnv nw atugv nyi gv lvgabv japjiriji maredw yvvdw aluayu bv ridur lvgabv kapki nvnga? Nw ninyia ridur svnga tapv ridw?
Won’t God avenge his chosen ones who are crying out to him day and night, and yet he exercises patience with them?
8 Ngo nonua mindu, Nw bunu gvbv japjire okv hum baapubv rijire. Vbvritola nyia Kuunyilo ngv vdwlo nyiamooku so aarikunyi mvngjwng go paarikudw?”
I tell you that he will avenge them quickly. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”
9 Atua darwk nvgobv mvngsinv okv kvvbi nyi mvnwngnga miyakaayanv vdwa Jisu so minchisinam sum minjidato.
He also spoke this parable to certain people who were convinced of their own righteousness, and who despised all others:
10 “Alu golo nyi anyigo Pwknvyarnvnaam lo kumdubv vla chaato: akonv Parisi go kvvbi gonv lampu naaria nvgo.
“Two men went up into the temple to pray; one was a Pharisee, and the other was a tax collector.
11 Parisi angv atu hv akusubv dakrwsito okv kumto, ‘Ngo Pwknvyarnv nam, umbonyikv mvngdunv, ogulvgavbolo ngo dvgum madunv, tvvma nvgobv rima, vmalo nyi mvnwng gv ribv, yoomur nvgobv rima. Ngo nam umbonyikv vdunv ogulvgavbolo ngo alo v doonv lampunayanv aingbv rima.
The Pharisee stood and prayed by himself like this: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like the rest of men: extortionists, unrighteous, adulterers, or even like this tax collector.
12 Ngo lokkanw lo loonyi go yikla doodunv, okv ngo paanam lo vring loka akonyi nam jibwng dunv.’
I fast twice a week. I give tithes of all that I get.’
13 Vbvritola Lampunayanv angv adulo dakto okv ninyigv nyukmu ngvka nyido aobv baayinmato, vbvritola ninyigv haakwnglo baapv gvrila okv minto, ‘Pwknvyarnv, ngo rimurnv nyi go, ngam aya labv!’
But the tax collector, standing far away, wouldn’t even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his chest, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, a sinner!’
14 Ngo nonua mindunv,” Jisu minto, “Pwknvyarnv gv kaagia lo, alvnvgobv rinv lampu naayanv angv, vdwlo nw naam bv vngtokudw, Parisis angvma. Ho lvga mvnwngngv yvvdw kainvgobv mvngsudunv um miang nvgobv mvre, okv yvvdw atu v miang nvgobv mvngsudunv hum kainvgobv mvre.”
I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
15 Nyi mego bunugv vmi vdwa Jisu gvlo aagvjito ninyigv laak v bunuam lakpo modubv vla. Lvbwlaksu vdwv bunua vbvrinv gubv vla yamdarpato,
They were also bringing their babies to him, that he might touch them. But when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them.
16 vbvritola Jisu vmi vdwa nw gvlo goklwkto okv minto, “vmi vdwa ngoogvlo aamuto okv bunua mintor mabv, ogulvgavbolo Pwknvyarnv gv Karv ngv svkv nvgv gvngv.
Yeshua summoned them, saying, “Allow the little children to come to me, and don’t hinder them, for God’s Kingdom belongs to such as these.
17 Sum mvnggap laka! Yvvdw vmi aingbv rigv rila Pwknvyarnv gv Karv nga naarwk madunv v hoka aanyu mare.”
Most certainly, I tell you, whoever doesn’t receive God’s Kingdom like a little child, he will in no way enter into it.”
18 Jius nyi rigvnv ako Jisunyi tvvkato, “Alvbv Tamsarnv, turbwng nama paanam lvgabv ngo ogugo risegubvri?” (aiōnios g166)
A certain ruler asked him, saying, “Good Rabbi, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
19 “No nga ogubv alvnv vla mindunv?” Jisu ninyia tvvkato. “Yvvka alvnv kaama Pwknvyarnv akin mvngchik.
Yeshua asked him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good, except one: God.
20 No gamkinam gaam vdwa chindu: ‘Yoomur mabvka; gwngrw gwyoka; dvcho mabvka; mvvlarula yvvnyika mium mabvka; noogv anv okv abunyi mvngdv laka.’”
You know the commandments: ‘Don’t commit adultery,’ ‘Don’t murder,’ ‘Don’t steal,’ ‘Don’t give false testimony,’ ‘Honor your father and your mother.’”
21 Nyi angv mirwkto, “So gv gamkinam gaam vdw sum, ngo vmi anga lokv, ribwngchala ripvkunv.”
He said, “I have observed all these things from my youth up.”
22 Vdwlo Jisu hum tvvtokudw, nw nyi anga minto, “No rise ngv akin go doopv. No ogugo doopvdw hum mvnwngnga pyoktola morko nga heemanv vdwa jito laka, okv no nyidomooku tolo nyitvyachok reku; vbvripikula aala nga vngming gvlakuka.”
When Yeshua heard these things, he said to him, “You still lack one thing. Sell all that you have and distribute it to the poor. Then you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me.”
23 Vbvritola vdwlo nyi angv hum tvvtokudw, nw achialvbv mvngru toku, ogulvgavbolo nw achialvbv nyitvto.
But when he heard these things, he became very sad, for he was very rich.
24 Jisu ninyia mvngru dubv kaatoku okv minto, “Nyitvnv nyi hv Pwknvyarnv gv Karv lo aanam lvgabv achialvbv aanyu madunv!
Yeshua, seeing that he became very sad, said, “How hard it is for those who have riches to enter into God’s Kingdom!
25 Kemel gv pwsi ungrung lo vngpit tvvnam aingbv nyitvnv nyi v hum kaiyabv aanyu manam gubv Pwknvyarnv gv Karv lo aatv rinyi ridunv.”
For it is easier for a camel to enter in through a needle’s eye than for a rich man to enter into God’s Kingdom.”
26 Nyi vdwv hum nw gvlo tvvpanv vdwv tvvkato, “Vbvrikubolo, yvv, ringnam a paala kujinv?”
Those who heard it said, “Then who can be saved?”
27 Jisu mirwkto, “Nyi gv ogugo rinyu manamv Pwknvyarnv gv lvgabv rinyu dunv.”
But he said, “The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.”
28 Vbvrikunamv Pitar minto, “Kaatoka! Ngonu nam vngming gvdubv ngonugv naam vdwa vngyu pvnv.”
Peter said, “Look, we have left everything and followed you.”
29 “Am,” Jisu bunua minto, “Okv ngo nonua jvjvbv milv jidunv yvvdw naam vmalo nyimv vmalo achiboru vmalo anvabu vmalo kuu vdwa Pwknvyarnv gv Karv lvgabv vngyu dunv.
He said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or wife, or brothers, or parents, or children, for God’s Kingdom’s sake,
30 Vjakgv singgv dvnam sum achialvbv kaiyabv paare okv aainv singnam gunv tolo turbwng nama paare.” (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
who will not receive many times more in this time, and in the world to come, eternal life.” (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
31 Jisu lvbwlaksu vdwa vngyi gvtoku okv bunua minto, “Tvvtoka, ngonu Jerusalem bv vngdunv, hoka nyijwk vdwgv nyia Kuunyilo gv lvga nga lvknam vdwv jvjvbv rilin jiriku.
He took the twelve aside and said to them, “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things that are written through the prophets concerning the Son of Man will be completed.
32 Ninyia kvvbi nyi vdwgvlo laklwk reku, bunu ninyia mvmin reku, nyarjikao reku, okv tachor chorke reku.
For he will be delivered up to the Gentiles, will be mocked, treated shamefully, and spit on.
33 Bunu ninyia svnyak pareku, okv mvki reku, vbvritola alu loom kochinglo nw turrap reku.”
They will scourge and kill him. On the third day, he will rise again.”
34 Vbvritola lvbwlaksu vdwv minam vdwa akonyika chinku mato; ogu ha minpv nvdw hv bunugv lokv adu toku, okv Jisu ogu gonyi minpv nvdw um bunu chinku mato.
They understood none of these things. This saying was hidden from them, and they didn’t understand the things that were said.
35 Jisu Jeriko gv adarlo aadungto, hoka giagonv nyi ako lamtv hoka doopv tvvla giadungto.
As he came near Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the road, begging.
36 Vdwlo nw nyipam vdwgv vngpit nama tvvpa tokudw, nw tvkato, “Si ogu v?”
Hearing a multitude going by, he asked what this meant.
37 Bunu ninyia minpato, “Najaret lokv Jisu vngpit dvnvkv.”
They told him that Yeshua of Nazareth was passing by.
38 Nw kapla minto, “Jisu! Dabid gv kuunyilo! Nga aya mvngpa labvka!”
He cried out, “Yeshua, you son of David, have mercy on me!”
39 Haabo lokv nyi vdwv ninyia yamto okv ninyia choibvkv vla minto. Vbvritola nw gamtvyayabv gokla minto, “Dabid gv kuunyilo! Nga aya mvngpa labvka!”
Those who led the way rebuked him, that he should be quiet; but he cried out all the more, “You son of David, have mercy on me!”
40 Vkvlvgabv Jisu daktungto okv nyikchingnv nyi anga ninyigvlo aagv dubv minto. Vdwlo nyi angv nvchilo aato kudw, Jisu ninyia tvvkato,
Standing still, Yeshua commanded him to be brought to him. When he had come near, he asked him,
41 “No nga noogv lvgabv ogugo rijilabv vla mvngdunv?” “Tamsarnv,” nw mirwksito, “Ngo lvkodv kaapa nwngduku.”
“What do you want me to do?” He said, “Lord, that I may see again.”
42 Jisu ninyia minto, “Vbvrikunamv kaato kuka! Noogv mvngjwng ngv nam alv mopvku.”
Yeshua said to him, “Receive your sight. Your faith has healed you.”
43 Vjakgobv nw kaapa toku, okv nw Pwknvyarnvnyi hartv yingla, Jisunyi vngming gvtoku. Vdwlo nyipam v um kaatokudw, bunu mvnwngngv Pwknvyarnvnyi hartv toku.
Immediately he received his sight and followed him, glorifying God. All the people, when they saw it, praised God.
