Na Jesus el fahk sie pupulyuk nu sin mwet tumal lutlut in akkalemye nu selos lah elos enenu in pre pacl nukewa ac tia fuhleak.
BSB
BSB:
Then Jesus told them a parable about their need to pray at all times and not lose heart:
2
KOS
“Oasr sie mwet nununku in sie siti srisrik su tiana sangeng sin God, ku akfulatye kutena mwet.
BSB
BSB:
“In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected men.
3
KOS
Oasr pac katinmas se su muta pac in acn sac, su fahsri na mwet nununku sac ac kwafe sel elan kasrel aksuwosye lokoalok se inmasrol ac mwet se ma alein nu sel.
BSB
BSB:
And there was a widow in that town who kept appealing to him, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’
4
KOS
Pacl na paht mwet nununku sac tiana oru kutu ma, na tok el sifacna nunku in el mu, ‘Nga finne tia sangeng sin God, ku sunakin kutena mwet,
BSB
BSB:
For a while he refused, but later he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect men,
5
KOS
tusruk ke lupan lokoalok mutan se inge oru nu sik, nga ac kasrel elan eis suwohs ma el suk uh. Nga fin tia, na el ac sifil pacna fahsriyu nwe ke na nga totola na sel!’”
BSB
BSB:
yet because this widow keeps pestering me, I will give her justice. Otherwise, she will wear me out with her perpetual requests.’”
6
KOS
Ac Jesus el sifilpa fahk, “Porongo ma mwet nununku koluk sac fahk inge.
BSB
BSB:
And the Lord said,
“Listen to the words of the unjust judge.
7
KOS
Na mea, ya God El ac tia oru pac nununku lal in wo nu sin mwet lal su pang nu sel ke len ac fong in suk kasru sel? Ya El ac pahtlac in kasrelos?
BSB
BSB:
Will not God bring about justice for His elect who cry out to Him day and night? Will He delay in helping them?
8
KOS
Nga fahk nu suwos, El ac fah sa na in oru kasru lal nu selos. Tusruktu, ke Wen nutin Mwet el tuku, ya el ac konauk lulalfongi fin faclu?”
BSB
BSB:
I tell you, He will promptly carry out justice on their behalf. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on earth?”
9
KOS
Jesus el oayapa fahk pupulyuk se inge nu sin mwet su pangon mu elos mwet suwoswos, ac elos pilesru mwet nukewa sayalos.
BSB
BSB:
To some who trusted in their own righteousness and viewed others with contempt, He also told this parable:
10
KOS
“Sie pacl ah mwet luo utyak nu in Tempul in pre. Sie selos mwet Pharisee, ac el ngia mwet eisani tax.
BSB
BSB:
“Two men went up to the temple to pray. One was a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.
11
KOS
Mwet Pharisee sac tuyak ac mukena pre, ‘O God, nga kulo nu sum lah nga tia oana mwet ngia, su rapku ac oru ma sesuwos ac kosro. Nga kulo pac lah nga tia oana mwet eisani tax se ingo.
BSB
BSB:
The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed, ‘God, I thank You that I am not like other men—swindlers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector.
12
KOS
Nga lalo len luo ke wik se, ac nga sot nu sum sie tafu singoul ke ma nukewa luk!’
BSB
BSB:
I fast twice a week and pay tithes of all that I acquire.’
13
KOS
A mwet eisani tax sac tu oetok ah, ac el tia pacna keyak nu lucng ke el pre, a el puok iniwal ac fahk, ‘O God, pakoten nu sik, tuh nga sie mwet koluk!’”
BSB
BSB:
But the tax collector stood at a distance, unwilling even to lift up his eyes to heaven. Instead, he beat his breast and said, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner!’
14
KOS
Ac Jesus el fahk, “Nga fahk nu suwos, mwet eisani tax sac pa God El insewowo se ke el folokla nu lohm sel ah, ac tia mwet Pharisee sac. Tuh kutena mwet su sifacna akfulatyal ac fah akpusiselyeyuk, ac el su sifacna akpusiselyal fah akfulatyeyuk.”
BSB
BSB:
I tell you, this man, rather than the Pharisee, went home justified. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted.”
15
KOS
Kutu mwet uh use tulik srisrik natulos nu yurin Jesus tuh elan filiya paol faclos. Ke mwet tumal lutlut elos liye, elos multikin nu sin mwet ah.
BSB
BSB:
Now people were even bringing their babies to Jesus for Him to place His hands on them. And when the disciples saw this, they rebuked those who brought them.
16
KOS
A Jesus el pangon tulik uh in tuku nu yorol, ac el fahk, “Lela tulik in tuku nu yuruk, ac nikmet ikololosi, tuh Tokosrai lun God ma lalos su oana elos.
BSB
BSB:
But Jesus called the children to Him and said,
“Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them! For the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
17
KOS
Pwayena nga fahk nu suwos, elos na su eis Tokosrai lun God oana sie tulik srisrik ac fah utyak nu we.”
BSB
BSB:
Truly I tell you, anyone who does not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”
18
KOS
Sie mwet kol lun mwet Jew el siyuk sin Jesus, “Mwet Luti wo, mea nga enenu in oru tuh nga fah usrui moul ma pahtpat?”
BSB
BSB:
Then a certain ruler asked Him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”
19
KOS
Ac Jesus el siyuk sel, “Efu kom ku pangonyu wo? Wangin sie mwet wo, a God mukena.
BSB
BSB:
“Why do you call Me good?”
Jesus replied.
“No one is good except God alone.
20
KOS
Kom etu ma sap uh: ‘Nik kom kosro; nik kom akmas; nik kom pisrapasr; nik kom orek loh kikiap lain mwet; sunakin papa tomom ac nina kiom.’”
BSB
BSB:
You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery, do not murder, do not steal, do not bear false witness, honor your father and mother.’”
21
KOS
Ac mwet sac topuk, “Nga nuna akos ma sap inge nukewa oe ke nga tulik me.”
BSB
BSB:
“All these I have kept from my youth,” he said.
22
KOS
Ke Jesus el lohng ma inge, el fahk nu sel, “Oasr pac ma se lula kom enenu in oru. Kukakunla ma lom nukewa ac sang mani kac an nu sin mwet sukasrup, na ac fah oasr mwe kasrup lom inkusrao; na kom fahsru fahsr tukuk.”
BSB
BSB:
On hearing this, Jesus told him,
“You still lack one thing: Sell everything you own and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me.”
23
KOS
Tusruk ke mwet sac lohng ma inge, arulana toasrla insial, mweyen el arulana kasrup.
BSB
BSB:
But when the ruler heard this, he became very sad, because he was extremely wealthy.
24
KOS
Jesus el liye lah mwet sac toasrla ac el fahk, “Arulana upa nu sin mwet kasrup in ilyak nu in Tokosrai lun God!
BSB
BSB:
Seeing the man’s sadness, Jesus said,
“How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!
25
KOS
Ac fisrasr soko camel in fahsr sasla ke mutun soko nilul, liki sie mwet kasrup in utyak nu in Tokosrai lun God.
BSB
BSB:
Indeed, it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”
26
KOS
Na mwet ma lohng kas ma el fahk uh siyuk, “Fin ouingan, su ac ku in moul?”
BSB
BSB:
Those who heard this asked, “Who then can be saved?”
27
KOS
Jesus el topuk, “Ma su kofla orek sin mwet uh, God El ku in oru.”
BSB
BSB:
But Jesus said,
“What is impossible with man is possible with God.”
28
KOS
Na Peter el fahk, “Liye, kut filiya ma lasr nukewa ac fahsr tukum.”
BSB
BSB:
“Look,” said Peter, “we have left all we had to follow You.”
29
KOS
Ac Jesus el fahk nu selos, “Pwayena nga fahk nu suwos, kutena mwet su filiya lohm sel, ku mutan kial, ku mwet wial, ku papa tumal ac nina kial, ku tulik natul ke sripen Tokosrai lun God,
BSB
BSB:
“Truly I tell you,”
Jesus replied,
“no one who has left home or wife or brothers or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God
30

Elos ac fah srunglul ac unilya, tusruktu tukun len tolu el ac fah sifil moulyak.”
BSB
BSB:
They will flog Him and kill Him, and on the third day He will rise again.”
34
KOS
Mwet tumal lutlut elos tiana kalem ke ma inge; kalmen kas inge wikla nu selos, ac elos tia etu ma Jesus el kaskas kac uh.
BSB
BSB:
But the disciples did not understand any of these things. The meaning was hidden from them, and they did not comprehend what He was saying.
