Luke 14 (GMVL) · Opened

1Issi gallas Yesusi quma maanaas Farsaaweta halaqatappe issaa soo gelida wode asay wuri Yesusi ay ooththanaakko giidi ayfe iza bolla tokki xeellides.One Sabbath, Jesus went to eat in the home of a leading Pharisee, and those in attendance were watching Him closely.

2Heenkka izas asateththay puuriin waayettiza issi asi iza sinththan dees.Right there before Him was a man with dropsy.

3Yesusikka Muse wogaa erizaytanne Farsaaweta, «Sakettizaade Sambata gallas paththanaas koshshizeyee? Koshshennee?» giidi oychchides.So Jesus asked the experts in the law and the Pharisees, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath or not?”

4Isttika co7u gida; izikka addeza bochchidi paththi yeddides.But they remained silent. Then Jesus took hold of the man, healed him, and sent him on his way.

5Qasseka, «Inttefe issi asas Sambata gallas nay woykko booray kundidi ollan gelikko eeson heerakka kessonttaadey oonee?» gides.And He asked them, “Which of you whose son or ox falls into a pit on the Sabbath day will not immediately pull him out?”

6Isttika oyshaas aykko zaarokka demmanaas dandaybeettenna.And they were unable to answer these questions.

7Xeygettida asati uttanaas bonchchoso koyishin Yesusi be7idi leemisora isttas,When Jesus noticed how the guests chose the places of honor, He told them a parable:

8«Issi asi nena sarges xeygikko bonchchoson uttofa; neeppe bollara bonchchettizaadey xeygettiko,“When you are invited to a wedding banquet, do not sit in the place of honor, in case someone more distinguished than you has been invited.

9inttena nam7atakka xeygidaadey yiidi, ‹Ne uttidasohoza hayssaades yedda› gaana; nenikka yeellatashe ziqqaso baandasa.Then the host who invited both of you will come and tell you, ‘Give this man your seat.’ And in humiliation, you will have to take the last place.

10Gido attiin ne xeygettida wode ziqqaso xeellada utta; nena xeygidaadey yiidi, ‹Ta laggezoo! Haa ya dhoqqasohon utta› gaandes; nenikka he wode nenara maaddan uttida asaa ubbaa sinththan bonchchettana.But when you are invited, go and sit in the last place, so that your host will come and tell you, ‘Friend, move up to a better place.’ Then you will be honored in front of everyone at the table with you.

11Gaasoykka bana dhoqqu histtizaadey wuri ziqqi gaana; bana ziqqi histtizaadey wuri dhoqqu gaana» gides.For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”

12Yesusikka xeygida addeza, «Quma woykko kawo mizanaas xeyssiko neyssaththo nena xeyssidi mizontta mala ne laggeta woykko ne ishata, ne dabbota woykko dureta woykko dure gutata xeygoppa.Then Jesus said to the man who had invited Him, “When you host a dinner or a banquet, do not invite your friends or brothers or relatives or rich neighbors. Otherwise, they may invite you in return, and you will be repaid.

13Gido attiin asaa xeyssada mizana koykko manqota, kushey, tohoy baynda wobbetanne qooqeta xeyssa; neni anjjettana.But when you host a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind,

14Xeygettidayti kushe zaaranaas dandayontta gishshas xillota denththa wode nees kushey zaarettana» gides.and you will be blessed. Since they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.”

15Maaddan Yesusara issife uttidaytappe issoy hayssa siyidi, «Xoossa Kawoteththan shiiqidi maaddaafe miza asi anjjettidaade» gides.When one of those reclining with Him heard this, he said to Jesus, “Blessed is everyone who will eat at the feast in the kingdom of God.”

16Yesusikka, «Issi asi wolqqama gibira giigsidi daro as xeygides.But Jesus replied, “A certain man prepared a great banquet and invited many guests.

17«Gibira maana wodeykka gakkiin xeygettida imaththata, ‹Wurikka giigida gishshas haa yiite!› giidi xeygana mala ba ashkara yeddides.When it was time for the banquet, he sent his servant to tell those who had been invited, ‘Come, for everything is now ready.’

18Gido attiin wurikka baas hara gaaso shiishshidi issoy, ‹Ha7i gade shammadis; ta baada beyanaas bessees; hachchis tana lanccofa› gides.But one after another they all began to make excuses. The first one said, ‘I have bought a field, and I need to go see it. Please excuse me.’

19«Hankkoyssika, ‹Tani ichchashu waaxa boora shammadis; istta paacca xeellana gishshas hach tana lanccofa› gides.Another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to try them out. Please excuse me.’

20«Qasse hara issaadeyka, ‹Tani buro mishirateththan days; baanaas dandaykke› gides.Still another said, ‘I have married a wife, so I cannot come.’

21«Oosanchchazi kiitettidasoppe simmidi heedzdzati gidayssa ba godaas yootides; he wodekka gibira giigsidayssi hanqettidi oosanchchaza, ‹Elle oyddu oge kezada manqota, kusheynne tohoy baynda wobbeta, qomaaxatanne ayfey baynda qooqeta haa gelththa› gides.The servant returned and reported all this to his master. Then the owner of the house became angry and said to his servant, ‘Go out quickly into the streets and alleys of the city, and bring in the poor, the crippled, the blind, and the lame.’

22«Oosanchchazikka zaaridi, ‹Ta Godoo! Ne tana azazidayssa ubbaa poladis; ha7ikka hara uteththasoy dees› gides.‘Sir,’ the servant replied, ‘what you ordered has been done, and there is still room.’

23«Godazikka oosanchchaza, ‹Gede oyddu oge kezada ta keeththe kumana mala pudenne duge aadhdhizayta wolqqara haa gelththa.So the master told his servant, ‘Go out to the highways and hedges and compel them to come in, so that my house will be full.

24Tani tuma gays; gibiraa maana xeygettidaytappe issaadeyka doonan gelththenna› » gides.For I tell you, not one of those men who were invited will taste my banquet.’”

25Daro derey izara issife bizayssa Yesusi be7idi guye simmi,Now large crowds were traveling with Jesus, and He turned and said to them,

26«Taakko yizay wuri ba aawaa, ba machchonne nayta, ba ishatanne michcheta, ba shemppo gidiin ixxontta aggiko tana kaallizaade gidanaas dandayenna.“If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters—yes, even his own life—he cannot be My disciple.

27Ba masqale tookkidi tana kaallonttay tana kaallizaade gidanaas dandayenna.And whoever does not carry his cross and follow Me cannot be My disciple.

28«Inttefe issi asi keeththe keexxanaas koykko polanaas dandayanaakkonne dandayonttaakko koyrottidi baas diza bira qopponttay oonee?Which of you, wishing to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost to see if he has the resources to complete it?

29Keeththaa keexxana doommidi wursanaas hanontta ixxiko be7ida asi wuri iza bolla miiccana.Otherwise, if he lays the foundation and is unable to finish the work, everyone who sees it will ridicule him,

30Isttika, ‹Hayssi addezi keeththe keexo oykkides shin polibeenna› gi miiccana.saying, ‘This man could not finish what he started to build.’

31«Woykko issi kawoy hara kawora olas giigettidi nam7u tammu shii as ekki yiza kawo zaaranaas tammu shii ola asara zaaranaakko uttidi qopponttay oonee?Or what king on his way to war with another king will not first sit down and consider whether he can engage with ten thousand men the one coming against him with twenty thousand?

32Ola zaaranaas dandayetontta misatidi beettiko buro haahon dishin maqaynnanaas gaanna yeddees.And if he is unable, he will send a delegation while the other king is still far off, to ask for terms of peace.

33Hessaththoka inttefe oonakka gidiin baas dizayssa aggonttay tana kaallizaade gidanaas dandayenna.In the same way, any one of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be My disciple.

34«Maxiney lo7oshin ba maxineteththaa mal7o yeddiko zaaridi waani mal7ana dandayzee?Salt is good, but if the salt loses its savor, with what will it be seasoned?

35Gaden yeggiin aradisontta gishshas coo kare wora yegettees; siyiza hayththi diza asi siyo!» gides.It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile, and it is thrown out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
