KOS
In pacl sac, mwet tumal lutlut elos tuku ac siyuk sin Jesus, “Su fulat oemeet in Tokosrai lun kusrao uh?”
BSB
BSB:
At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who then is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”
2
KOS
Na Jesus el pangonma tulik srisrik se ac sap elan tu ye mutalos,
BSB
BSB:
Jesus invited a little child to stand among them.
3
KOS
ac el fahk, “Pwayena nga fahk nu suwos, kowos fin tia ekla in oana tulik srisrik, kowos ac koflana ilyak nu in Tokosrai lun kusrao.
BSB
BSB:
“Truly I tell you,”
He said,
“unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
4
KOS
El su fulat oemeet in Tokosrai lun kusrao uh pa el su akpusiselyal in oana tulik se inge.
BSB
BSB:
Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
5
KOS
Ac kutena mwet su eis sie tulik srisrik ouinge inek, el oayapa eisyu.
BSB
BSB:
And whoever welcomes a little child like this in My name welcomes Me.
6
KOS
“Kutena mwet su fah aktukulkulye sie selos inge su srik su lulalfongiyu, ac wona nu sin mwet sacn in sripsripi sie eot wen inkwawal ac sisella elan walomla yen loal in meoa uh.
BSB
BSB:
But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.
7
KOS
Fuka kolukiya nu sin faclu ke oasr na ma su aktukulkulye mwet uh! Kain lumah inge ac nuna sikyak pacl nukewa, tusruktu ac fah arulana koluk nu sin mwet se su pwanang tuh ouiya inge in sikyak uh!
BSB
BSB:
Woe to the world for the causes of sin. These stumbling blocks must come, but woe to the man through whom they come!
8
KOS
“Lac poum ku lac niom fin aktukulkulye kom, pakela ac sisla! Ac wo fin wanginla lac poum ku lac niom ac kom utyak nu in moul ma pahtpat, liki monum in fas ac sisiyang kom nu in e kawil.
BSB
BSB:
If your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life crippled or lame than to have two hands and two feet and be thrown into the eternal fire.
9
KOS
Ac la atronmotom fin aktukulkulye kom, tipalla ac sisla! Ac wo kom in utyak nu ke moul ma pahtpat wi atronmuta se na, liki atronmotom kewa in oasr ac sisiyang kom nu ke e lun hell.
BSB
BSB:
And if your eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell.
10
KOS
“Liyaung tuh kowos in tia pilesru kutena selos su srik inge. Nga fahk nu suwos, tuh lipufan lalos elos mutana ye mutun Papa tumuk inkusrao pacl e nukewa.” [
BSB
BSB:
See that you do not look down on any of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of My Father in heaven.
11
KOS
Tuh Wen nutin Mwet el tuku in tuh molelosla su tuhlac.”]
BSB
BSB:
Not in the BSB
Not in the earliest manuscripts
12
KOS
“Mea kowos nunku mu sie mwet ac oru fin oasr sheep siofok natul, ac soko tuhlac? Ya el ac tia filiya ma eungoul eu in muta mongo pe eol uh, ac som suk ma soko ma tuhlac uh?
BSB
BSB:
What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go out to search for the one that is lost?
13
KOS
Ke el konauk, nga fahk nu suwos lah el ac engan yohk ke sheep soko ah, liki ma eungoul eu ma tia tuhlac uh.
BSB
BSB:
And if he finds it, truly I tell you, he rejoices more over that one sheep than over the ninety-nine that did not go astray.
14
KOS
In ouiya se na inge, Papa tomowos inkusrao El tia lungse kutena selos su srik inge in tuhlac.
BSB
BSB:
In the same way, your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should perish.
15
KOS
“Sie mwet lulalfongi fin orekma koluk lain kom, fahla nu yorol ac akkalemye ma sufal lal. Tusruktu, oru ma inge inmasrlomtal na. El fin porongekom, na orekma wo lom folokonulma.
BSB
BSB:
If your brother sins against you, go and confront him privately. If he listens to you, you have won your brother over.
16
KOS
A el fin tia porongekom, kom eis sie ku luo mwet in wi kom, tuh kas in alein nukewa in oasr akpwayeye sin mwet loh luo yak, oana ke Ma Simusla uh fahk.
BSB
BSB:
But if he will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.’
17
KOS
Ac el fin tia pacna porongalos, na kom fahkak ma nukewa nu sin church. Ac el fin srangesr lohng church, na kom tari oral oana sie mwet pegan, ku sie mwet eisani tax.
BSB
BSB:
If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, regard him as you would a pagan or a tax collector.
18
KOS
“Ke ma inge nga fahk nu suwos nukewa: Kutena ma kowos kapriya fin faclu, ac fah kapiri pac inkusrao; ac kutena ma kowos tulala faclu, ac fah taltalla pac inkusrao.
BSB
BSB:
Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.
19
KOS
“Ac nga fahk pac nu suwos: Pacl nukewa ma luo suwos insese nu ke sie ma su kowos pre kac fin faclu, Papa tumuk inkusrao El ac fah oru nu suwos.
BSB
BSB:
Again, I tell you truly that if two of you on the earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by My Father in heaven.
20
KOS
Tuh yen nukewa ma oasr mwet luo ku tolu tukeni we inek, nga fah welulos pac.”
BSB
BSB:
For where two or three gather together in My name, there am I with them.”
21
KOS
Na Peter el tuku nu yurin Jesus ac fahk, “Mwet Luti, sie mwet lulalfongi wiuk fin nuna orekma koluk nu sik, pacl ekasr nga ac nunak munas nu sel kac? Ya pacl itkosr?”
BSB
BSB:
Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother who sins against me? Up to seven times?”
22
KOS
Ac Jesus el topuk ac fahk, “Mo, tia pacl itkosr, a itngoul pacl itkosr,
BSB
BSB:
Jesus answered,
“I tell you, not just seven times, but seventy-seven times!
23
KOS
mweyen Tokosrai lun kusrao uh ouinge: Sie pacl ah tuh oasr sie tokosra su sulela in tuni soemoul lun mwet orekma lal.
BSB
BSB:
Because of this, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.
24
KOS
El tufahna akoo in oru ma inge na utukyak sie selos su soemoul lal alukela million dollar.
BSB
BSB:
As he began the settlements, a debtor owing ten thousand talents was brought to him.
25
KOS
Mani su oasr yurin mwet kulansap sac tia fal in molela soemoul lal, ke ma inge tokosra el sap in kukakinyukla el oana sie mwet kohs, wi mutan kial, tulik natul ac ma nukewa lal, in akfalye misa lal.
BSB
BSB:
Since the man was unable to pay, the master ordered that he be sold to pay his debt, along with his wife and children and everything he owned.
26
KOS
Ke ma inge mwet kulansap sac putati nu ye mutun tokosra sac ac fahk, ‘Nunak munas, mongfisrasr nu sik, ac nga ac fah akfalye nu sum ma nukewa!’
BSB
BSB:
Then the servant fell on his knees before him. ‘Have patience with me,’ he begged, ‘and I will pay back everything.’
27
KOS
Tokosra sac pakomutal ac nunak munas nu sel ac eela soemoul lal, na el fuhlella el som.
BSB
BSB:
His master had compassion on him, forgave his debt, and released him.
28
KOS
“Na ke mwet sac el oatula, el sun sie sin mwet orekma wial su soemoul nu sel ke sie lupa na srisrik. El sruokilya ac iseya kwawal ac fahk, ‘Molema soemoul lom nu sik uh!’
BSB
BSB:
But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii. He grabbed him and began to choke him, saying, ‘Pay back what you owe me!’
29
KOS
Mwet kulansap sac putati ye mutal ac fahk, ‘Nunak munas, mongfisrasr nu sik, ac nga fah akfalyela soemoul luk nu sum!’
BSB
BSB:
So his fellow servant fell down and begged him, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you back.’
30
KOS
A el tia lungse lohng, ac el eisalang nu in presin tuh elan muta nwe ke na el akfalyela soemoul lal.
BSB
BSB:
But he refused. Instead, he went and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay his debt.
31
KOS
Ke mwet orekma wial saya elos liye ma inge, elos arulana toasr kac, ac som fahk ma nukewa nu sin tokosra sac.
BSB
BSB:
When his fellow servants saw what had happened, they were greatly distressed, and they went and recounted all of this to their master.
32
KOS
Na tokosra sac solama mwet sac ac fahk nu sel, ‘Kom sie mwet kulansap arulana koluk! Nga nunak munas nu sum ke ma nukewa kom soemoul nu sik kac, mweyen na kom kwafe nu sik.
BSB
BSB:
Then the master summoned him and said, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave all your debt because you begged me.
33
KOS
Ya tia fal kom in nunak munas pac nu sin mwet kulansap se wiom ah, oana ke nga oru nu sum?’
BSB
BSB:
Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant, just as I had on you?’
34
KOS
Tokosra el arulana kasrkusrak sel, ac supwalla nu in presin elan muta keok we nwe ke na el akfalyela soemoul lal nukewa.”
BSB
BSB:
In anger his master turned him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should repay all that he owed.
35
KOS
Ouinge Jesus el fahk nu selos, “Papa tumuk inkusrao El ac oru oapana inge nu suwos, kowos fin tia nunak munas nu sin mwet lulalfongi wiowos ke insiowos na pwaye.”
BSB
BSB:
That is how My heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother from your heart.”
