Luke 11 (KOS) · Opened

1Sie len ah Jesus el pre in sie acn. Ke el tari, sie sin mwet tumal lutlut fahk nu sel, “Leum, luti kut in pre, oana ke John el luti nu sin mwet tumal lutlut ah.”One day in a place where Jesus had just finished praying, one of His disciples requested, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.”

2Jesus el fahk nu selos, “Kowos in pre ouinge: ‘Papa: Lela Ine mutal lom in akfulatyeyuk; Lela Tokosrai lom in tuku.So Jesus told them, “When you pray, say: ‘Father, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come.

3Kite kut mwe mongo ma kut enenu pingana len.Give us each day our daily bread.

4Nunak munas nu sesr ke ma koluk lasr, Mweyen kut nunak munas nu sin mwet nukewa su oru koluk nu sesr. Ac tia kol kut nu ke mwe srike upa.’”And forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into temptation.’”

5Ac Jesus el fahk nu sin mwet tumal lutlut, “Fin pa sie suwos som nu lohm sin mwet kawuk se lal ke infulwen fong ac fahk nu sel, ‘Mwet kawuk, sewin tolkwe lof in bread an.Then Jesus said to them, “Suppose one of you goes to his friend at midnight and says, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,

6Kawuk se luk fahsr nu ke sie pac acn tuh pa tui yuruk, a wangin ma ngan sang kital!’because a friend of mine has come to me on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him.’

7Na kawuk se lom el fin kasma luin lohm uh me, ‘Nimet tukasru! Ku kom tia liye lah srungul uh kauli tari? Nga ac tulik nutik inge mutulla tari. Nga tia ku in tukakek ac sot enenu lom an.’And suppose the one inside answers, ‘Do not bother me. My door is already shut, and my children and I are in bed. I cannot get up to give you anything.’

8Na fuka? Nga fahk nu suwos lah el finne tia tukakek ac sot bread uh nu sum ke sripen kom mwet kawuk lal, tusruk ke sripen sumwekin ac kuinsrim lom an, el ac tukakek ac sot mwe enenu lom nukewa.I tell you, even though he will not get up to provide for him because of his friendship, yet because of the man’s persistence, he will get up and give him as much as he needs.

9Ouinge nga fahk nu suwos: Siyuk, ac ac fah itukot nu suwos; suk, ac kowos fah konauk; towolak, ac ac fah ikakla nu suwos.So I tell you: Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.

10Tuh elos nukewa su siyuk ac fah eis, ac el su suk el fah konauk, ac srungul ac fah ikakla nu sin kutena mwet su towolak.For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.

11Su suwos su oasr tulik natu ac sang nu sin wen natul soko wet pwasin el fin siyuk ke soko ik?What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead?

12Ku el fin siyuk ke sie atro, ya kom ac sang nu sel soko scorpion?Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?

13Kowos finne koluk, a kowos etu in sang ma wo nu sin tulik nutuwos uh. Kalem na lah Papa tomowos inkusrao El ac oru arulana yohk liki, ac El ac fah sang Ngun Mutal nu selos su siyuk sel!”So if you who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!”

14Jesus el lusla sie demon su oru mwet se kofla kaskas, ac ke pacl se demon sac illa ah, mwet sac mutawauk in kaskas. Un mwet se ma liye ah arulana fwefela,One day Jesus was driving out a demon that was mute. And when the demon was gone, the man who had been mute spoke. The crowds were amazed,

15tusruktu kutu selos fahk mu, “Beelzebul, leum lun demon uh, pa sang ku nu sel in luselosyak uh.”but some of them said, “It is by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons, that He drives out demons.”

16Ac kutu pac selos kena srikal Jesus, ouinge elos siyuk sel elan oru sie mwe akul in akkalemye lah ku lal ma inkusrao me.And others tested Him by demanding a sign from heaven.

17Tuh Jesus el etu ma elos nunku, na el fahk nu selos, “Kutena mutunfacl su srisrielik ac alein sie sin sie fah tia oan paht; sie sou su srisrielik ac fah musalelik.Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself will be laid waste, and a house divided against a house will fall.

18Ke ma inge, u lun Satan uh fin tukeni aacnwuki, na tokosrai lal uh ac ku fuka? Kowos fahk mu nga lusla demon uh mweyen Beelzebul el se ku luk in oru.If Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom stand? After all, you say that I drive out demons by Beelzebul.

19Fin pa ingan ouiya nga oru uh, na mwet lowos uh luselosla fuka? Mwet lowos uh sifacna akpwayei lah kowos sutuela!And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.

20Tiana ouingan, a ku lun God pa oru nga in lusla demon uh, ac ma inge akpwayei lah Tokosrai lun God tuku tari nu yuruwos.But if I drive out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.

21“Ke sie mwet fokoko el akoela tari kufwen mwe mweun lal nukewa in karingin lohm sel, na ma lal nukewa ac oanna wo.When a strong man, fully armed, guards his house, his possessions are secure.

22Tusruktu sie mwet ma ku lukel fin tuku lainul ac kutangulla, el ac usla kufwen mweun nukewa ma mwet sac tuh lulalfongi, ac kitalik ma el pisrala uh.But when someone stronger attacks and overpowers him, he takes away the armor in which the man trusted, and then he divides up his plunder.

23“El su tia wiyu, el lainyu. Ac el su tia wiyu eisani, el sisalik.He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.

24“Ke pacl se sie ngun fohkfok ac illa liki sie mwet, el ac forfor in acn ma wangin kof we, in suk acn elan mongla we. El fin tia ku in konauk, el ac fahk nu sel sifacna, ‘Nga ac folokla nu in lohm se nga muta we meet ah.’When an unclean spirit comes out of a man, it passes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’

25Ouinge el ac folokla ac liye lah acn sac nasnasla ac arulana akoeyukla wo.On its return, it finds the house swept clean and put in order.

26Na el ac illa ac sifil solama itkosr pac ngun fohkfok ma arulana koluk lukel, na elos ac tuku ac muta we. Na ac oru tuh moul lun mwet sac ac koluk liki na meet ah.”Then it goes and brings seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and dwell there. And the final plight of that man is worse than the first.”

27Ke Jesus el fahk ma inge, mutan se kasak liki inmasrlon mwet uh ac fahk nu sel, “Insewowo mutan se su oswekomla ac katitii kom!”As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd raised her voice and said, “Blessed is the womb that bore You, and blessed are the breasts that nursed You!”

28A Jesus el topuk, “Aok pwaye, tuh elos su lohng kas lun God ac akos, ac insewowo yohk liki!’”But He replied, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.”

29Ke mwet uh iktokeni nu yorol Jesus, el sifilpa fahk, “Fuka lupan koluk lun mwet in pacl inge uh! Elos siyuk sie mwe akul lulap, tuh wangin ma ac itukyang nu selos sayen mwe akul kacl Jonah.As the crowds were increasing, Jesus said, “This is a wicked generation. It demands a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.

30In oapana ke mwet palu Jonah el tuh sie mwe akul nu sin mwet Nineveh, ouinge Wen nutin Mwet el ac fah sie mwe akul nu sin mwet in pacl inge.For as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so the Son of Man will be a sign to this generation.

31Ke Len in Nununku uh, Kasra lun Sheba el ac mau tuyak ac orek loh lain mwet in pacl inge uh, mweyen el tuh tuku liki acn sel su oan yen loeslana in tuh porongo kas lalmwetmet lal Solomon; ac nga fahk nu suwos lah oasr sie inge su arulana yohk lukel Solomon.The Queen of the South will rise at the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and now One greater than Solomon is here.

32Ke Len in Nununku, mwet Nineveh elos ac mau tuyak ac orek loh lain kowos, mweyen elos tuh forla liki ma koluk lalos ke elos lohng luti lal Jonah; ac nga fahk nu suwos lah oasr sie inge su arulana yohk lukel Jonah!The men of Nineveh will stand at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now One greater than Jonah is here.

33“Wangin sie mwet ac akosak sie lam ac okanla, ku afinya ke sie ahlu. El ac filiya fin sukan lam uh, tuh mwet uh in liye kalem kac ke elos ac utyak nu in lohm uh.No one lights a lamp and puts it in a cellar or under a basket. Instead, he sets it on a stand, so those who enter can see the light.

34Atronmutun mwet uh oana sie lam nu ke mano. Atronmotom fin nasnas, na monum nufon ac sessesla ke kalem; tusruktu atronmotom fin koluk, monum nufon ac fah lohsr.Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are good, your whole body also is full of light. But when they are bad, your body is full of darkness.

35Kowos karinganang tuh kalem su oan in kowos an in tia lohsr.Be careful, then, that the light within you is not darkness.

36Monum nufon fin sessesla ke kalem ac wangin kitin acn lohsr kac, ac fah arulana kalem, oana ke sie lam ac tolkowosyak ke kalem yohk la.”So if your whole body is full of light, with no part of it in darkness, you will be radiant, as though a lamp were shining on you.”

37Tukun Jesus el kaskas tari, sie mwet Pharisee solal elan welul mongo; ouinge el utyak ac akola in mongo.As Jesus was speaking, a Pharisee invited Him to dine with him; so He went in and reclined at the table.

38Mwet Pharisee sac lut ke el liye lah Jesus el tiana winwinla meet liki el mongo.But the Pharisee was surprised to see that Jesus did not first wash before the meal.

39Ouinge Leum el fahk nu sel, “Kowos mwet Pharisee uh oaru na in ohlla acn lik ke cup ac ahlu in mongo lowos uh, a insiowos sesseslana ke sulallal ac ma koluk.Then the Lord said, “Now you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness.

40Kowos mwet nikin! God, su orala acn lik El oayapa orala acn loac!You fools! Did not the One who made the outside make the inside as well?

41A kowos in sang ma oan in cup ac ahlu lowos an nu sin mwet sukasrup, na ma nukewa ac fah nasnas nu suwos.But give as alms the things that are within you, and behold, everything will be clean for you.

42“We nu suwos mwet Pharisee! Kowos sang nu sin God sie tafu singoul, finne ke mahsrik mwe akyuye mongo oana mint ac rue, a kowos pilesru nununku suwohs ac lungse nu sin God. Fal kowos in oru ma inge, ac tia pilesru ma saya uh.Woe to you Pharisees! For you pay tithes of mint, rue, and every herb, but you disregard justice and the love of God. You should have practiced the latter without neglecting the former.

43“We nu suwos mwet Pharisee! Kowos lungse nien muta fulat in iwen lolngok uh, ac in paingyuk kowos ke kas in sunak ke nien kuka uh.Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the chief seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.

44We nu suwos! Kowos oana kulyuk ma wangin akul kac, na mwet uh fahsr fac ac tia akilen.”Woe to you! For you are like unmarked graves, which men walk over without even noticing.”

45Sie sin mwet luti Ma Sap uh fahk nu sel, “Mwet Luti, ke kom fahk ma inge, kom akkolukye kut pac!”One of the experts in the law told Him, “Teacher, when You say these things, You insult us as well.”

46Jesus el topuk ac fahk, “We nu suwos pac, mwet luti Ma Sap! Kowos sang mwe utuk toasr nu fin mwet uh, a kowos tia asroela sokofanna kufinpouwos in kasrelos us ma inge.“Woe to you as well, experts in the law!” He replied. “For you weigh men down with heavy burdens, but you yourselves will not lift a finger to lighten their load.

47We nu suwos! Kowos orala kulyuk na wowo nu sin mwet palu uh — nuna mwet palu na ma papa matu tomowos elos tuh onela.Woe to you! For you build tombs for the prophets, but it was your fathers who killed them.

48Kowos sifacna akkalemye lah kowos insese nu ke ma mwet matu lowos elos oru meet ah. Elos uniya mwet palu ah, na kowos musaela kulyuk lalos uh.So you are witnesses consenting to the deeds of your fathers: They killed the prophets, and you build their tombs.

49Ke sripa se inge, Lalmwetmet lun God fahk mu, ‘Nga ac fah supwala mwet palu ac mwet sap nu yorolos; elos ac fah uniya kutu selos, ac kalyei kutu.’Because of this, the wisdom of God said, ‘I will send them prophets and apostles; some of them they will kill and others they will persecute.’

50Ke ma inge mwet in pacl inge ac fah eis mwatan akmas ma papa matu tumalos tuh oru ke elos onela mwet palu nukewa ke mutaweyen orekla faclu ah me,As a result, this generation will be charged with the blood of all the prophets that has been shed since the foundation of the world,

51mutawauk ke akmas kacl Abel me nwe ke akmas kacl Zechariah, su tuh anwuki inmasrlon loang in kisa ac Acn Mutal in Tempul uh. Aok, nga fahk nu suwos, mwet in fil se inge ac fah kalyeiyuk kaclos inge nukewa!from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who was killed between the altar and the sanctuary. Yes, I tell you, all of it will be charged to this generation.

52“We nu suwos mwet luti Ma Sap uh! Kowos sruok key nu ke mutunoa lun etauk, a kowos sifacna tia utyak nu we, ac kowos kutongolos su kena utyak!”Woe to you experts in the law! For you have taken away the key to knowledge. You yourselves have not entered, and you have hindered those who were entering.”

53Ke Jesus el som liki lohm sac, mwet luti Ma Sap ac mwet Pharisee elos mutawauk in arulana lainul, ac srikal ke mwe siyuk puspis,As Jesus went on from there, the scribes and Pharisees began to oppose Him bitterly and to ply Him with questions about many things,

54mweyen elos kena sruokilya ke kutu ma el ac fahk.waiting to catch Him in something He might say.
