Luke 17 (GOFWFTW)

1Yesuusi ba tamaaretakko, “Ase dhubethidi nagaran gelssiyabay yoonna aggenna. Gidoshin, nagaran gelana mela oothiya uraa ayye” yaagis.Jesus said to His disciples, “It is inevitable that stumbling blocks will come, but woe to the one through whom they come!

2He uray kaalotappe issuwa balethanaappe woxa ba qoodhen qachchidi abban wulliko iyaw lo77o.It would be better for him to have a millstone hung around his neck and to be thrown into the sea than to cause one of these little ones to stumble.

3Hessa gisho naagettite. “Ne ishay nagara oothiko hanqetta; qiirottidi maarotethan simmiko, iyaw atto yaaga.Watch yourselves. If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.

4Issi gallasan laappun toho qohidi, laappun toho, ‘Taani ta balaa eras tana maara’ yaagidi neekko yiikko iyaw atto ga.”Even if he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times returns to say, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.”

5Hawaareti Godaakko, “Ammano nuus gujjarkkii” yaagidosona.The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!”

6Goday, “Gaashe ayfe mela ammanoy hinttew de7ikko ‘Hayssa wolaa shodettada abbaa giddon toketta’ yaagikko hinttew kiitettana” yaagis.And the Lord answered, “If you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you can say to this mulberry tree, ‘Be uprooted and planted in the sea,’ and it will obey you.

7Gujjidikka Yesuusi, “Hintte giddofe issuwas goshshanchchoy woykko dorsse heemmiya aylley de7ikko ooso gadeppe woykko wudeppe soo simmiya wode, ‘Elle haayada kathi maanaw utta’ yaagey de7ii?Which of you whose servant comes in from plowing or shepherding in the field will say to him, ‘Come at once and sit down to eat’?

8Deenna, ‘Taw kaho giigisa; taani mada, uyada aggana gakkanaw eqqada muza. Hessafe guye, neeni qassi maasanne uyaasa’ yaagenneyye?Instead, won’t he tell him, ‘Prepare my meal and dress yourself to serve me while I eat and drink, and afterward you may eat and drink’?

9Hiza, goday, aylley kiitaa polida gisho anjjiyye?Does he thank the servant because he did what he was told?

10Hessa gisho, hintteka kiitettoyssa ubbaa polida wode, ‘Nu pathonna aylleta; oothanaw bessiya oosuwa polida’ yaagite” yaagis.So you also, when you have done everything commanded of you, should say, ‘We are unworthy servants; we have only done our duty.’”

11Yesuusi Yerusalaame bishe Samaarisinne Galiila biittaas giddora kanthidi aadhdhis.While Jesus was on His way to Jerusalem, He was passing between Samaria and Galilee.

12Issi gutaa geliya wode baro harggen oykettida tammu asati iya demmidosona. Enttika haahon eqqidi,As He entered one of the villages, He was met by ten lepers. They stood at a distance

13“Godaa Yesuusa, nuus qadhettarkii” yaagidi waassidosona.and raised their voices, shouting, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!”

14I entta be7ida wode, “Bidi hinttenatethaa Ayhude kahine bessite” yaagis. Entti ogiya bolla bishe paxidosona.When Jesus saw them, He said, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And as they were on their way, they were cleansed.

15Enttafe issoy ba paxuwa be7ida wode dhoqqu gida qaalan Xoossaa bonchchishe Yesuusakko simmis.When one of them saw that he was healed, he came back, praising God in a loud voice.

16I Samaare biitta asi, shin Yesuusa tohuwa bolla gufannidi iya galatis.He fell facedown at Jesus’ feet in thanksgiving to Him—and he was a Samaritan.

17Yesuusi, “Paxiday tammu asata gidokkonaayye? Yaatin, uddufunati aw bidonaa?“Were not all ten cleansed?” Jesus asked. “Where then are the other nine?

18Ha allaga uraappe attin hari simmidi Xoossaa galatey deenna guusseyye?” yaagidi oychchis.Was no one found except this foreigner to return and give glory to God?”

19Uraakko, “Ne ammanoy nena pathis denddada ba” yaagis.Then Jesus said to him, “Rise and go; your faith has made you well!”

20Farisaaweti, “Xoossaa kawotethay awude yaanee?” gidi Yesuusa oychchidosona. I, “Xoossaa kawotethay benttiya mallan yeenna.When asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, “The kingdom of God will not come with observable signs.

21Qassika iyo, ‘Hannina woykko hinina yaaganaw dandda7enna. Ays giikko, Xoossaa kawotethay hintte giddon de7ees’ ” yaagidi zaaris.Nor will people say, ‘Look, here it is,’ or ‘There it is.’ For you see, the kingdom of God is in your midst.”

22Yesuusi ba tamaaretakko, “Asa Na7aa gallasatappe issuwa be7anaw hintte amottiya wodey yaana, shin hintte be7ekketa.Then He said to the disciples, “The time is coming when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, but you will not see it.

23Asay, ‘I yan de7ees’ woykko, ‘Hayssan de7ees’ yaagana, shin enttana kaallidi booppite.People will tell you, ‘Look, there He is!’ or ‘Look, here He is!’ Do not go out or chase after them.

24Wol77anthi wol77ammidi saluwa gaxappe gaxa poo7isiya mela Asa Na7aa yuussaa gallasay hessada hanana.For just as the lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one end to the other, so will be the Son of Man in His day.

25Shin hessi hananaappe sinthe Asa Na7ay daro waayanawunne ha yeletethan ixettanaw bessees.But first He must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.

26Nohe wode hanidayssa mela Asa Na7aa wodiyankka hessada hanana.Just as it was in the days of Noah, so also will it be in the days of the Son of Man:

27Nohey Markkabiyan gelida qammaa gakkanaw asay mishenne uyishe, ekkishenne gelishe de7ishin bashsha haathay yidi ubbaa dhayssis.People were eating and drinking, marrying and being given in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark. Then the flood came and destroyed them all.

28Looxe laythankka hessatho hanis. Asay mishenne uyishe, shammishenne bayzishe, tokkishenne keexishe, gam77idosona.It was the same in the days of Lot: People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building.

29Looxey Soodomeppe keyida gallas diinne geetettiya xuuggiyabay saloppe bukkidi ubbaa dhayssis.But on the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.

30Asa Na7ay qoncciya wodekka hessada hanana.It will be just like that on the day the Son of Man is revealed.

31“He gallasan oonikka karen de7ey keethaa giddon de7iyabaa ekkanaw soo geloppo. Hessadakka, gaden de7iya asi aykkoskka soo simmofo.On that day, let no one on the housetop come down to retrieve his possessions. Likewise, let no one in the field return for anything he has left behind.

32Looxe machchiw akeekite;Remember Lot’s wife!

33ba shemppiw ashshanaw koyaa asi oonikka dhayssana; ba shemppiw aathi immiya oonikka I ashshana.Whoever tries to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life will preserve it.

34Ta hinttew odays; he gallasan nam77u asati issi arssan zin77ana. Issoy ekettana, hankkoy attana.I tell you, on that night two people will be in one bed: one will be taken and the other left.

35Nam77u maccasati wolla gaaccishin issiya ekettana, hankkiya attana.Two women will be grinding grain together: one will be taken and the other left.”

36Nam77u asati wolla gaden goyeyssatappe issoy ekettana, hankkoy attana” yaagis.Not in the BSB

37Entti, “Godaw aw ekettanee?” yaagidi oychchidosona. I, “Hayqqidabay de7iya bessan ankoti shiiqoosona” yaagis.“Where, Lord?” they asked. Jesus answered, “Wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather.”
