Luke 14 (JNI) · Opened

1Uru uwui wa Asabar, ma ribe akura ure unu, udan anyimo anu bezi urusa barki are imumare, anu wa zin unu wuza ume aje.One Sabbath, Jesus went to eat in the home of a leading Pharisee, and those in attendance were watching Him closely.

2Wa iri uye aje aweme unu ukoni usum utobi.Right there before Him was a man with dropsy.

3Yeso ma iki anu iso utize nan anu ubezi Urusa, “Ya wuna uri unu wuli Asabar a human unu nu, nani mmh?”So Jesus asked the experts in the law and the Pharisees, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath or not?”

4Ba wa ingara tik, ba Yeso ma mekime, ma human in me, ma ceki me ma dusa.But they remained silent. Then Jesus took hold of the man, healed him, and sent him on his way.

5Bama gun we, “Aveni anyimo ashime ingima zin in ku zenki nani kubarka ku rizi uwa rono Asabar, mada suso kuni debe-debe ba?”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?”

6Da wa kabirka me imum ba.And they were unable to answer these questions.

7Sa Yeso ma ira cundesa abuku we u aye unigora wa zanka ti hira ti cukuno ti huma, ba ma nyawe ure ubata ma gusin we.When Jesus noticed how the guests chose the places of honor, He told them a parable:

8Ingi uye ma beze we nigora na anya, kati uka cukuno ukwanko a huma, barki nani una hira me ma rani sa ma teki we.“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.

9Ingi desa ma bezi shi nigora me maaye, madi gun hu, 'nya unu ugino me ahira sa u cikini' Udi ku hiri in mu ime uka cukuno ahira an desa da wa bikiwe ba.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.

10Ingi a bezi we nigora, uha uka cukuno ahira sa da azi ananuba, barki nigi desa ma beziu we nigora me ma aye, mada ke magunhu, 'Uruni' nyene aba ucukuno ni, abine ani uduku kem u nyezeni aje adesa in ciki nan we ahira anigora me.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.

11Vat desa ma nyeze nice numeme, adi tuzo me, desa ma tuzo nice numeme adi nyezeme.For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”

12Yeso ma gun unu nume sa ma bezime, “Ingi udi bezi are Imumare inigora nani nigora, kati ubezi urom uwe, nani ami henu uwe, nani nikora nuwe, nani anu upuru uwe anu kem, kasi sa wada ke wa bezi hume, ya cukuno wa kurzo weni.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.

13Ingi udi titi nigorah u nyari anu dira, nan adesa wa ke wa wu ure uwunaba, nan anu zatu tibuna nan arubo.But when you host a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind,

14udi kem ure aje barki sa da wa zin unu nā u kurzo uweniba. Adi nyawe ure aje uwui u hira ana imumu i huma?”and you will be blessed. Since they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.”

15Unu inde sama ciki nan na nanu sa Yeso ma kunna ani me, magun me, “Ure aje ucukuno ahira desa madi ri a kura Asere”.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.”

16Yeso magun me, “Ure unu mani ma bezi nigora ni dang ma bezizi anu gbardang.But Jesus replied, “A certain man prepared a great banquet and invited many guests.

17Uganiya unigora u ē, ma tumi urere umeme maka guna an desa ma beziziwe, “Ayeni, amu mara ubara adadu Vat.When it was time for the banquet, he sent his servant to tell those who had been invited, ‘Come, for everything is now ready.’

18Vat uwe, wa tubi u boo imum igebe sa idi kartiwe u aye ahira nigora me. Unu utuba magun me, “In zi unu ruu, indi ha inka ira, cekum in ha.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.’

19Uye magu, “Makwa inaa ya fara inu cibi in nyara in ka bata ini, Cekum in ha.Another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to try them out. Please excuse me.’

20Uye magu, 'ma wuza a nya, barki anime inda kem u ayeba.Still another said, ‘I have married a wife, so I cannot come.’

21Sa Urere ma ze ma buki Sakurame vat imum igino me, sakura ma kuna iriba, magun unu rere umeme, hana debe utarsi tina tini pin nan ti hira ti cukuzino, u em inanu uzatu nikara, nan an desa wada ke wa wuzi ire imum ba, arubo nan anu zatu tibuna'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.’

22Urere magu, Sakura, Imum me sa wa buka amara, anime ahira arani.‘Sir,’ the servant replied, ‘what you ordered has been done, and there is still room.’

23Sakura magu urere me, hana, ka tarsa tinaa, nan ti hira ti cukuzono ta amani pin me, utisam anu, barki akura am a myinca.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.

24In zinu booshi, an desa ma bezizi we unu tuba sa madi donkino nigora num.For I tell you, not one of those men who were invited will taste my banquet.’”

25Abini me, nigora nanu wazin in tanu nan me, ma gamirka magu,Now large crowds were traveling with Jesus, and He turned and said to them,

26Vat desa madi ē ahira am in daki ma game acu me, nan ka ino me, nan une me, nan ahana me, nan anu henu me ahana aroma nan nane, mada ke ma cukuno unutarsa um ba.“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.

27Vat desa dama zika uzito ume matarsam ba. Mada ke macukuno unutarsa umba.And whoever does not carry his cross and follow Me cannot be My disciple.

28Aveni anyimo ashime sa ma nyara ubara akura, mada cukuno me urso imum igebe sa madi hu, nani mazini ikirfi me sa idi bari me umara ukatuma me?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?

29Kat i cukuno sa ma mara unuka udenge me ugame umara, vat adesa wa hira me wa tubi me nibasa.Otherwise, if he lays the foundation and is unable to finish the work, everyone who sees it will ridicule him,

30Wa gusi, unu ugemani matubi aso da ma masizikime umasirka me.saying, ‘This man could not finish what he started to build.’

31Nani uya ugomo mani, ingi ma haza nikono nan ure ugomo, maki da cukuno ma bati tizze ma iri me unami madubu akure ukirau (10,000) mada ke maka wuza ukara nan ugomo sa ma zin nanu anikara madubu akure are (20,000).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?

32Ingi mada rusa ba, dati a unigino mada pit, na ma tumi aka iko una ticukun tihuma.And if he is unable, he will send a delegation while the other king is still far off, to ask for terms of peace.

33Ane ani, ba uye anyimo ashi desa dama ceki imum be sa mazini ba, mada ke ma cukuno unu tarsa um.In the same way, any one of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be My disciple.

34Muhu imum ini ihuma, ingi muhu curnome, in nyanini adi barka munini?Salt is good, but if the salt loses its savor, with what will it be seasoned?

35Muzome in ire imumuwaza adizi, nani mu cukuno uteki. Senke akwankoni cas. De sa mazi in titui ti kuna na ma kunna.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.”
