Luke 5 (GAX) · Opened

1Gaafa tokko Yesuus qarqara abbaayaa Genesaarexii dhaabbateeruun, kolbaan dubbii Waaqaa dhage'iisaaf gara isaa wol dadarbite.On one occasion, while Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret with the crowd pressing in on Him to hear the word of God,

2Inni hoboloota lamaan qarqara abbaaya'aatitti dhagge; worri qurxummii guuru hoboloota achitti lakkisee caccoota dhiqatiisatti jiraayyu.He saw two boats at the edge of the lake. The fishermen had left them and were washing their nets.

3Yesuus hoboloota san keessaa gara takkatti'ii, ta Simoonii seenee, akka inni qarqara abbaayaa irraa diqqoo gara keessaa hiissu isa gaafate. Achiin duuba Yesuus hoboloo keessa tee'ee gumii barsiise.Jesus got into the boat belonging to Simon and asked him to put out a little from shore. And sitting down, He taught the people from the boat.

4Yennaa dubbii ifii fixate, Simooniin, «Gara ila bisaanii hoboloo hiissiitii, qurxummii qabiisaaf caccoota teessan gad buusa'a» jedhe.When Jesus had finished speaking, He said to Simon, “Put out into deep water and let down your nets for a catch.”

5Simoonille, «Barsiisa'a, eda halkan duudii guddoo itti dadhabaa bulle, ammoo womaa hin qabanne. Amma ammoo, yoo ati jette ani caccoota hin buusa» jedheen.“Master,” Simon replied, “we have worked hard all night without catching anything. But because You say so, I will let down the nets.”

6Isaan caccoota buusanee, haga caccooti isaanii tarsa'iisa geettutti qurxummii hedduu qabatane.When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to tear.

7Isaan lansooti isaanii ka hoboloo dhibii keessa jiranu dhufanee akka isaan gargaaranuuf haatatane. Isaanille dhufanee hobolooti lamaanuu haga gad lixiisa geettutti qurxummi'iin akka malee guutane.So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.

8Simoon Pheexroos waan te'e kana yennaa dhagge, fuula Yesuusii duratti jilbiiffatee, «Goottaa kiyya ani cubbichaa, natti hin dhikaatin!» jedhe.When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees. “Go away from me, Lord,” he said, “for I am a sinful man.”

9Simoonii fi worri isa woliin jiranu maraa qurxummii hedduu waan guurataneef akka malee baaseffatane.For he and his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken,

10Akkuma worra kaanii, lansoota Simoonii ka te'ane, ilmaan Zabdewoosii Yaaqoobii fi Yohaannisille baaseffatane. Yesuus Simooniin, «Hin sodaatin! Haganaa achi kolbaa guurta» jedhe.and so were his partners James and John, the sons of Zebedee. “Do not be afraid,” Jesus said to Simon. “From now on you will catch men.”

11Isaan hoboloota harkisanee qarqaratti baasanee, waan mara lakkisanee Yesuus hordofane.And when they had brought their boats ashore, they left everything and followed Him.

12Gaafa tokko Yesuus qachaa tokko keessa adoo jiruu, namichi dhukkuba goga'aa farrisiisa'aan qabameeru ka achi jiru tokko, yennaa isa dhagge, Yesuus duratti gad jigee, «Ee Goottaa, yoo fedha keeti te'e na fayyisi» jedhee kadhate.While Jesus was in one of the towns, a man came along who was covered with leprosy. When he saw Jesus, he fell facedown and begged Him, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”

13Yesuus harka ifii diriirfatee, isa qabee, «Hin fedha fayyi» jedhe. Yennuma san dhukkubi goga'aa farrisiisaan namicha lakkise.Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him.

14Yesuus namichaan, «Waan kana nama tokkolle'etti hin himin; ammoo dhaqiitii hayyichatti ifi mudhisi; akka ati fayyite, nami mara akka beekuuf, fayyuu keetiif, qodha Muuseen ajaje kenni!» jedhee seere.“Do not tell anyone,” Jesus instructed him. “But go, show yourself to the priest and present the offering Moses prescribed for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”

15Gurri Yesuusii ammoo addee maratti dhage'amee, gumiin guddoon isa dhage'iisaa fi dhukkuba ifii irralle'ee fayyiisaaf gara isaa dhutte.But the news about Jesus spread all the more, and great crowds came to hear Him and to be healed of their sicknesses.

16Inni ammoo yennaa hedduu addee qoommi'ii dhaqaa daadimate.Yet He frequently withdrew to the wilderness to pray.

17Gaafa tokko Yennaa Yesuus barsiisu, Fariisaayotii fi barsiisoti Seera Muuse'ee, olloota Galiila'aa fi Yihudaa keessatti dhaggamanu mara keessaa, Yerusaalemille'ee dhufaneeranu achi tetee'aneeran. Yesuus worra dhibamane akka fayyisuuf, hunni Gootta'aa isa woliin jirtiiyyu.One day Jesus was teaching, and the Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there. People had come from Jerusalem and from every village of Galilee and Judea, and the power of the Lord was present for Him to heal the sick.

18Jarri tokko namicha laashoweeru tokko rare'een ba'atanee dhufanee, gara manaa seensisanee fuula Yesuusii dura keyiisaaf wodhaanane.Just then some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They tried to bring him inside to set him before Jesus,

19Ammoo waan kolbaan heddatteef, karaa seensisanu dhabanee, mana gubbaa yaabanee, heellichoo manaa saaqanee, rare'eenuu woliin kolbaa oddu'utti, fuula Yesuusii duratti gad buusane.but they could not find a way through the crowd. So they went up on the roof and lowered him on his mat through the tiles into the middle of the crowd, right in front of Jesus.

20Yesuus dhugeeffannaa isaanii yennaa dhagge, namichaan, «Abboo, cubbuu teeti maraaf araarri kennameera» jedhe.When Jesus saw their faith, He said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”

21Barsiisoti Seera Muuse'eetii fi Fariisaayoti, «Namichi Waaqa faanshessu kun eennu inni? Waaqa tokkocha malee eentu cubbuu namaaf araaramiisaaf dande'a?» jedhaa yaadatane.But the scribes and Pharisees began thinking to themselves, “Who is this man who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

22Yesuus yaada isaanii beekee, «Isin maaf waan akkanaa kana gadhaa keessan keessatti yaadattan?Knowing what they were thinking, Jesus replied, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?

23‹Cubbuu teeti maraaf araarri kennameera› jechu'u moo yookiin, ‹Ol ka'ii ideem› jechu'utti kaso'o?Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’?

24Amma ammoo ani Ilmi Namaa cubbuu araaramiisaaf lafa irratti baallii akka qabu akka beettanu» jedhee, namicha laashoweeruun, «Ol ka'i! Raree teeti fudhadhuutii gara mana keetii deemi!» jedhe.But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on the earth to forgive sins…” He said to the paralytic, “I tell you, get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”

25Yennuma san namichi fuula isaanii duratti ol ka'ee, itillee irra irkataa ture fudhatee, Waaqa galateeffataa gara mana ifii deeme.And immediately the man stood up before them, took what he had been lying on, and went home glorifying God.

26Isaan martinuu akka malee baaseffatanee, guddoo sodaatanee, «Adha baasa guddaa dhaggine!» jedhaa Waaqa galateeffatane.Everyone was taken with amazement and glorified God. They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.”

27Kanaan duuba, Yesuus achii deemee, namicha qaraxa guuru ka Lewwii jedhamu tokko, addee gosee qaraxaa tee'eeruun dhaggee, «Na hordofi» jedheen.After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him,

28Lewwiin ol ka'ee, waan mara lakkisee, isa hordofe.and Levi got up, left everything, and followed Him.

29Achiin duuba Lewwiin mana ifiititti, areertii guddoo Yesuusiif qopheesse. Worri qaraxa guuru heddu'uu fi worri dhibiille isaan woliin areeratiisaaf tetee'aneeran.Then Levi hosted a great banquet for Jesus at his house. A large crowd of tax collectors was there, along with others who were eating with them.

30Fariisaayotii fi worri golii isaanii te'ane barsiisoti Seera Muuse'ee gariin, «Isin worra qaraxa guuruu fi cubbaaleyyii woliin maaf nyaattan? Maaf untan?» jedhanee barattoota Yesuusiititti gungumane.But the Pharisees and their scribes complained to Jesus’ disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”

31Yesuus deebisee, «Worra fayyaa hin qanneef malee, worra fayyaaleyyi'iif cidheessa hin barbaachisu.Jesus answered, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.

32Ani cubbaaleyyii gara cubbuu irraa deebi'iisaa waamiisaaf malee, balchootaaf hin dhunne» isaaniin jedhe.I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”

33Namooti gariin Yesuusiin, «Barattooti Yohaannisii yennaa hedduu laamaa daadimatan. Barattooti fariisaayotaalle akkasuma tolchan, barattooti teeti ammoo hin nyaatanii, hin unan» jedhane.Then they said to Him, “John’s disciples and those of the Pharisees frequently fast and pray, but Yours keep on eating and drinking.”

34Yesuus deebisee, «Worri jila fuudhaa fi heerumaatii waamame adoo waajibichi isaan woliin jiruu, akka laamu isin hin tolchitanii? Hin tolchitanu!Jesus replied, “Can you make the guests of the bridegroom fast while He is with them?

35Yennaan waajibichi isaan biraa fudhatamu ammoo hin dhutti. Isaan yennaa san laaman» isaaniin jedhe.But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.”

36Yesuus itti aansee, mammaassalle itti mammaakee, «Eennulle woyaa haareya tarsaasee woyaa dullatti'itti hin erbu. Yoo akkana tolche, woyaa haareya san hin tarsaasa. Erbeen woyaa haareyaa woyaa dullatti'iin wol hin fuutu.He also told them a parable: “No one tears a piece of cloth from a new garment and sews it on an old one. If he does, he will tear the new garment as well, and the patch from the new will not match the old.

37Akkasuma daadhii woyni'ii ta hin bayiin qalqalluu dulloometti eennulle hin naqu. Yoo akkana tolche, daadhiin sun qalqalluu san hin dhoochi, daadhiin hin jiddi, qalqalluulle hin bada.And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the new wine will burst the skins, the wine will spill, and the wineskins will be ruined.

38Tanaaf daadhiin hin bayiin qalqalluu haareyatti naqamu'uu malte!Instead, new wine is poured into new wineskins.

39Nami daadhii woyni'ii ta baate uneen duuba ta hin bayiin uniisaaf barbaadu hin jiru. Inni, ‹Ta baate woyya› jedha» jedhe.And no one after drinking old wine wants new, for he says, ‘The old is better.’”
