< Luke 7 >

1 Nígbà tí ó sì parí gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀ fun àwọn ènìyàn, ó wọ Kapernaumu lọ.
After he had finished speaking in the hearing of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
2 Ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ balógun ọ̀rún kan, tí ó ṣọ̀wọ́n fún un, ṣàìsàn, ó sì ń kú lọ.
A certain centurion’s servant, who was dear to him, was sick and at the point of death.
3 Nígbà tí ó sì gbúròó Jesu, ó rán àwọn àgbàgbà Júù sí i, ó ń bẹ̀ ẹ́ pé kí ó wá mú ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ òun láradá.
When he heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, asking him to come and save his servant.
4 Nígbà tí wọ́n sì dé ọ̀dọ̀ Jesu, wọ́n fi ìtara bẹ̀ ẹ́, pé, “Ó yẹ ní ẹni tí òun ìbá ṣe èyí fún.
When they came to Jesus, they begged him earnestly, saying, “He is worthy for you to do this for him,
5 Nítorí tí ó fẹ́ràn orílẹ̀-èdè wa, ó sì ti kọ́ Sinagọgu kan fún wa.”
for he loves our nation, and he built our synagogue for us.”
6 Jesu sì ń bá wọn lọ. Nígbà tí kò sì jìn sí etí ilé mọ́, balógun ọ̀rún náà rán àwọn ọ̀rẹ́ sí i, pé, “Olúwa, má ṣe yọ ara rẹ lẹ́nu, nítorí tí èmi kò yẹ tí ìwọ ìbá fi wọ abẹ́ òrùlé mi.
Jesus went with them. When he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him, “Lord, don’t trouble yourself, for I am not worthy for you to come under my roof.
7 Nítorí náà èmi kò sì rò pé èmi náà yẹ láti tọ̀ ọ́ wá, ṣùgbọ́n sọ ní gbólóhùn kan, a ó sì mú ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ mi láradá.
Therefore I didn’t even think myself worthy to come to you; but say the word, and my servant will be healed.
8 Nítorí èmi náà pẹ̀lú jẹ́ ẹni tí a fi sí abẹ́ àṣẹ, tí ó ní ọmọ-ogun lẹ́yìn mi, mo sì wí fún ọ̀kan pé, ‘Lọ,’ a sì lọ; àti fún òmíràn pé, ‘Wá,’ a sì wá; àti fún ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ mi pé, ‘Ṣe èyí,’ a sì ṣe é.”
For I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers. I tell this one, ‘Go!’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes; and to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.”
9 Nígbà tí Jesu gbọ́ nǹkan wọ̀nyí, ẹnu sì yà, ó sì yípadà sí ìjọ ènìyàn tí ń tọ̀ ọ́ lẹ́yìn, ó wí pé, “Mo wí fún yín pé èmi kò rí irú ìgbàgbọ́ ńlá bí èyí nínú àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli.”
When Jesus heard these things, he marveled at him, and turned and said to the multitude who followed him, “I tell you, I have not found such great faith, no, not in Israel.”
10 Nígbà tí àwọn oníṣẹ́ sì padà sí ilé, wọ́n bá ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ náà tí ń ṣàìsàn, ara rẹ̀ ti dá.
Those who were sent, returning to the house, found that the servant who had been sick was well.
11 Ní ọjọ́ kejì, ó lọ sí ìlú kan tí a ń pè ní Naini, àwọn púpọ̀ nínú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ sì ń bá a lọ àti ọ̀pọ̀ ìjọ ènìyàn.
Soon afterwards, he went to a city called Nain. Many of his disciples, along with a great multitude, went with him.
12 Bí ó sì ti súnmọ́ ẹnu ibodè ìlú náà, sì kíyèsi i, wọ́n ń gbé òkú ọkùnrin kan jáde, ọmọ kan ṣoṣo náà tí ìyá rẹ̀ bí, ó sì jẹ́ opó: ọ̀pọ̀ ìjọ ènìyàn ìlú náà sì wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀.
Now when he came near to the gate of the city, behold, one who was dead was carried out, the only born son of his mother, and she was a widow. Many people of the city were with her.
13 Nígbà tí Olúwa sì rí i, àánú rẹ̀ ṣe é, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Má sọkún mọ́.”
When the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her and said to her, “Don’t cry.”
14 Ó sì wá, ó sì fi ọwọ́ tọ́ pósí náà: àwọn tí ń rù ú dúró jẹ́. Ó sì wí pé, “Ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin, mo wí fún ọ, dìde!”
He came near and touched the coffin, and the bearers stood still. He said, “Young man, I tell you, arise!”
15 Ẹni tí ó kú náà sì dìde jókòó, ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí i fọhùn. Ó sì fà á lé ìyá rẹ̀ lọ́wọ́.
He who was dead sat up and began to speak. Then he gave him to his mother.
16 Ẹ̀rù sì ba gbogbo wọn: wọ́n sì yin Ọlọ́run lógo, pé, “Wòlíì ńlá dìde nínú wa,” àti pé, “Ọlọ́run sì wá bẹ àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ wò!”
Fear took hold of all, and they glorified God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us!” and, “God has visited his people!”
17 Òkìkí rẹ̀ sì kàn ní gbogbo Judea, àti gbogbo agbègbè tí ó yí i ká.
This report went out concerning him in the whole of Judea and in all the surrounding region.
18 Àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn Johanu sì sọ gbogbo nǹkan wọ̀nyí fún un.
The disciples of John told him about all these things.
19 Nígbà tí Johanu sì pe àwọn méjì nínú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀, ó rán wọn sọ́dọ̀ Olúwa, wí pé, “Ìwọ ni ẹni tí ń bọ̀, tàbí kí a máa retí ẹlòmíràn?”
John, calling to himself two of his disciples, sent them to Jesus, saying, “Are you the one who is coming, or should we look for another?”
20 Nígbà tí àwọn ọkùnrin náà sì dé ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀, wọ́n wí pé, “Johanu onítẹ̀bọmi rán wa sọ́dọ̀ rẹ, pé, ‘Ìwọ ni ẹni tí ń bọ̀, tàbí kí a máa retí ẹlòmíràn?’”
When the men had come to him, they said, “John the Baptizer has sent us to you, saying, ‘Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?’”
21 Ní wákàtí náà, ó sì ṣe ìmúláradá ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ènìyàn nínú àìsàn, àti ààrùn, àti ẹ̀mí búburú; ó sì fi ìríran fún ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ àwọn afọ́jú.
In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and to many who were blind he gave sight.
22 Jesu sì dáhùn ó wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ padà lọ, ẹ ròyìn nǹkan tí ẹ̀yin rí, tí ẹ̀yin sì gbọ́ fún Johanu: àwọn afọ́jú ń ríran, àwọn amúnkùn ún rìn, a sọ àwọn adẹ́tẹ̀ di mímọ́, àwọn adití ń gbọ́rọ̀, a ń jí àwọn òkú dìde, àti fún àwọn òtòṣì ni à ń wàásù ìyìnrere.
Jesus answered them, “Go and tell John the things which you have seen and heard: that the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.
23 Alábùkún fún sì ni ẹnikẹ́ni tí kò kọsẹ̀ lára mi.”
Blessed is he who finds no occasion for stumbling in me.”
24 Nígbà tí àwọn oníṣẹ́ Johanu padà lọ, ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í sọ fún ìjọ ènìyàn ní ti Johanu pé, “Kí ni ẹ̀yin jáde lọ sí ijù lọ wò? Ewéko tí afẹ́fẹ́ ń mì?
When John’s messengers had departed, he began to tell the multitudes about John, “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
25 Ṣùgbọ́n kín ni ẹ̀yin jáde lọ wò? Ọkùnrin tí a wọ̀ ní aṣọ fẹ́lẹ́fẹ́lẹ́? Wò ó, àwọn tí á wọ̀ ní aṣọ ògo, tí wọ́n sì ń jayé, ń bẹ ní ààfin ọba!
But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft clothing? Behold, those who are gorgeously dressed and live delicately are in kings’ courts.
26 Ṣùgbọ́n kí ni ẹ̀yin jáde lọ wò? Wòlíì? Lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín, ó sì ju wòlíì lọ!
But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.
27 Èyí yìí ni ẹni tí a ti kọ̀wé nítorí rẹ̀ pé: “‘Wò ó, èmi yóò rán oníṣẹ́ mi síwájú rẹ; ẹni tí yóò tún ọ̀nà rẹ ṣe níwájú rẹ.’
This is he of whom it is written, ‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’
28 Mo wí fún yín nínú àwọn tí a bí nínú obìnrin, kò sí wòlíì tí ó pọ̀ ju Johanu Onítẹ̀bọmi lọ, ṣùgbọ́n ẹni tí ó kéré jùlọ ní ìjọba Ọlọ́run, ó pọ̀jù ú lọ.”
“For I tell you, among those who are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptizer; yet he who is least in God’s Kingdom is greater than he.”
29 (Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn tí ó gbọ́ àti àwọn agbowó òde, wọ́n dá Ọlọ́run láre, nítorí tí a fi ìtẹ̀bọmi Johanu tẹ̀ wọn bọ mi.
When all the people and the tax collectors heard this, they declared God to be just, having been baptized with John’s baptism.
30 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn Farisi àti àwọn amòfin kọ ète Ọlọ́run fún ara wọn, a kò bamitiisi wọn lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀.)
But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the counsel of God, not being baptized by him themselves.
31 Jesu sì wí pé, “Kí ni èmi ìbá fi àwọn ènìyàn ìran yìí wé? Kí ni wọ́n sì jọ?
“To what then should I compare the people of this generation? What are they like?
32 Wọ́n dàbí àwọn ọmọ kékeré tí ó jókòó ní ibi ọjà, tí wọ́n sì ń kọ sí ara wọn, tí wọ́n sì ń wí pé, “‘Àwa fọn fèrè fún yín, ẹ̀yin kò jó, àwa sì ṣọ̀fọ̀ fún yín, ẹ̀yin kò sọkún!’
They are like children who sit in the marketplace and call to one another, saying, ‘We piped to you, and you didn’t dance. We mourned, and you didn’t weep.’
33 Nítorí Johanu Onítẹ̀bọmi wá, kò jẹ àkàrà, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò sì mu ọtí wáìnì, ẹ̀yin sì wí pé, ‘Ó ní ẹ̀mí èṣù?’
For John the Baptizer came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, ‘He has a demon.’
34 Ọmọ ènìyàn dé, ó ń jẹ, ó sì ń mu, ẹ̀yin sì wí pé, ‘Wò ó, ọ̀jẹun, àti ọ̀mùtí, ọ̀rẹ́ àwọn agbowó òde àti àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀!’
The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, ‘Behold, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’
35 Ṣùgbọ́n ọgbọ́n ni a dá láre nípasẹ̀ ọmọ rẹ.”
Wisdom is justified by all her children.”
36 Farisi kan sì rọ̀ ọ́ kí ó wá bá òun jẹun, ó sì wọ ilé Farisi náà lọ ó sì jókòó láti jẹun.
One of the Pharisees invited him to eat with him. He entered into the Pharisee’s house and sat at the table.
37 Sì kíyèsi i, obìnrin kan wà ní ìlú náà, ẹni tí i ṣe ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀, nígbà tí ó mọ̀ pé Jesu jókòó, ó ń jẹun ní ilé Farisi, ó mú ṣágo kékeré alabasita òróró ìkunra wá,
Behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that he was reclining in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster jar of ointment.
38 Ó sì dúró tì í lẹ́bàá ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ lẹ́yìn, ó ń sọkún, ó sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí i fi omijé wẹ̀ ẹ́ ní ẹsẹ̀, ó sì ń fi irun orí rẹ nù ún nù, ó sì ń fi ẹnu kò ó ní ẹsẹ̀, ó sì ń fi òróró kùn wọ́n.
Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
39 Nígbà tí Farisi tí ó pè é sì rí i, ó wí nínú ara rẹ̀ pé, “Ọkùnrin yìí ìbá ṣe wòlíì, ìbá mọ ẹni àti irú ẹni tí obìnrin yìí jẹ́ tí ń fi ọwọ́ kàn an, nítorí ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ ni.”
Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, “This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner.”
40 Jesu sì dáhùn, ó wí fún un pé, “Simoni, Mo ní ohun kan sọ fún ọ.” Ó sì dáhùn pé, “Olùkọ́ máa wí.”
Jesus answered him, “Simon, I have something to tell you.” He said, “Teacher, say on.”
41 “Ayánilówó kan wà tí ó ní ajigbèsè méjì: ọ̀kan jẹ ẹ́ ní ẹ̀ẹ́dẹ́gbẹ̀ta owó idẹ, èkejì sì jẹ ẹ́ ní àádọ́ta.
“A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
42 Nígbà tí wọn kò sì ní ohun tí wọn ó san, ó dáríjì àwọn méjèèjì. Wí nínú àwọn méjèèjì, ta ni yóò fẹ́ ẹ jù?”
When they couldn’t pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most?”
43 Simoni dáhùn wí pé, “Mo ṣe bí ẹni tí ó dáríjì jù ni.” Jesu wí fún un pé, “Ìwọ ti dájọ́ náà dáradára.”
Simon answered, “He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most.” He said to him, “You have judged correctly.”
44 Ó sì yípadà sí obìnrin náà, ó wí fún Simoni pé, “Wo obìnrin yìí? Èmi wọ ilé rẹ, ìwọ kò fi omi wẹ ẹsẹ̀ fún mi: ṣùgbọ́n, omijé rẹ̀ ni ó fi ń rọ̀jò sí mi lẹ́sẹ̀ irun orí ni ó fi ń nù wọ́n nù.
Turning to the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, and you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head.
45 Ìwọ kò fi ìfẹnukonu fún mi: ṣùgbọ́n òun, nígbà tí mo ti wọ ilé, kò dẹ́kun ẹnu fífi kò mí lẹ́sẹ̀.
You gave me no kiss, but she, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.
46 Ìwọ kò fi òróró pa mí lórí, ṣùgbọ́n òun ti fi òróró pa mí lẹ́sẹ̀.
You didn’t anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.
47 Ǹjẹ́ mo wí fún ọ, A dárí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀ tí ó pọ̀ jì í: nítorí tí ó ní ìfẹ́ púpọ̀: ẹni tí a sì dárí díẹ̀ jì, òun náà ni ó ní ìfẹ́ díẹ̀.”
Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But one to whom little is forgiven, loves little.”
48 Ó sì wí fún un pé, “A dárí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ jì ọ́!”
He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”
49 Àwọn tí ó bá a jókòó jẹun sì bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í rò nínú ara wọn pé, “Ta ni èyí tí ń dárí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ji ni pẹ̀lú?”
Those who sat at the table with him began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”
50 Ó sì dáhùn wí fún obìnrin náà pé, “Ìgbàgbọ́ rẹ gbà ọ́ là, máa lọ ní àlàáfíà.”
He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”
