Matthew 13 (LGA)

1Ego na rane tugu isa sa sa taloa pa ruma isa si Jisu, ko sa lao pa keketaina na ovuku ko sa toqo vaivagigalai ketakoi.That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the sea.

2Na minete tinoni lavata sa qai vaikamunia isa, ko sa lao tu koi ko sa toqo pa kai koaka sisa. Goto na puku minete tinoni sa qai turu gu pa parona.Such large crowds gathered around Him that He got into a boat and sat down, while all the people stood on the shore.

3Ko kubo sakasava sa sa vagigalainiria isa pa vavakato vavapada. Ko sa vavavakato vei pira sisa. <<Koleona sa kai tinoni umuma sa riu iparainiria na kiko pa ona inuma.And He told them many things in parables, saying, “A farmer went out to sow his seed.

4Totonai sa kole iparainiria isa sira na kiko, sa kaki sa qai vukele lao pa lodaka soana pa rereregena tana tinoni, ko qai tatava kamu na manugu ko qai tobiki gani betoria na gadia.And as he was sowing, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it.

5Goto kaki mule sa qai vukele lao pa bubuturu ketakoi sake kubo pesona. Ko qaike ruavo tugu pidokodia sa na kiko ira, ura sake kubo na peso.Some fell on rocky ground, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly because the soil was shallow.

6Ba tonai sa sagere gu na tapo poni sa sa alanga vamaleiria, ura sa kepore na bageredi.But when the sun rose, the seedlings were scorched, and they withered because they had no root.

7Goto kaki kiko mule sa qai vukele lao pa gasoro vavaioka, ko sa pilu vamateria na gasoro vavaioka.Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the seedlings.

8Goto kaki kiko sa qai vukele lao pa peso masuruna ko qai vua vatale. Ko kaki sa qai vua gogoto, kaki sa qai vua vonomongavulu, goto kaki sa qai vua uengavulu.Still other seed fell on good soil and produced a crop—a hundredfold, sixtyfold, or thirtyfold.

9Isa sa koleona talingina sa mi vainongoro vatale!>> sau si Jisu.He who has ears, let him hear.”

10Ego isa tugu sa beto sa qai rijo lao tata ko qai nanasia ira na ona sepele si Jisu, <<Ai sa vei ko qu varoitiria tu na vavakato vavapada sao tonai qu vaivagigalai?>> qarigunia.Then the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Why do You speak to the people in parables?”

11Poni sa oeria i Jisu sira, pira sauniria, <<Ura agou qu tei taiania tu sa na gigalai golomona na binangara pa noka ko qu gigilaimiu, ba tadira na tinoni sa sa korapa pae.He replied, “The knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them.

12Isa na tinoni sa tei poreona tu sa mina taia mutugu ko mina pugele nyonyoa na ona. Isa na tinoni sa keporeona sa isa tugu iapeki sa isongia ba mina tateku pale tugu.Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.

13Na ginuana qa vaivagigalainiria na vavakato vavapada sa ura qai dodogoro tugu sira ba qaike babata, qai vainongoro tugu ba qaike nonongoro beto qaike vakaberiadia kai sa.This is why I speak to them in parables: ‘Though seeing, they do not see; though hearing, they do not hear or understand.’

14Ko sa gore votu tugu tadira sa na kokorotai ti Aisea, isa pira sau, <Muna nongoro ko muna nongoro sagou, ba munake vakaberia. Muna dogoro ko muna dogoro sagou, ba munake batia.In them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled: ‘You will be ever hearing but never understanding; you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.

15Ura na bulodi na tinoni pira sa duduvili, na talingidi sa kiqili patu beto na matadi qai leqa. Kita mai babata na matadi, mai nonongoro na talingidi, beto mi tavagigala na bulodi ko mai gabala mule lame ko ara ma salanaria,> sau na Tamasa.For this people’s heart has grown callous; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn, and I would heal them.’

16Ba agou qu tamana sagou, ura qu boka dodogoro vatavagigala beto na nonongoro vakoititi.But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear.

17Ura ma poja sosotonigou ara sagou: na soku sira na tinoni kokorotai beto ira na tinoni tuvisidi pa moa sa qai nyoguania ko bai batiria ba bai nongororia qarigu sira na sakasava qu batiria beto qu nongororia agou pira, ba qaike boka,>> sau si Jisu.For truly I tell you, many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.

18<<Ego mu vainongoronia sa na ginuana na vavakato vavapadana na tinoni umuma.Consider, then, the parable of the sower:

19Na tinoni sa nongoria na nongorona na binangara tana Tamasa ba sake vakaberia sa sa lame na kutana nikerena ko sa teku palea sa na nongoro sa tavavuvusu pa bulona. Na tinoni isa sa sa vei na kiko sa tavavuvusu pa lodaka soana.When anyone hears the message of the kingdom but does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is the seed sown along the path.

20Goto na kiko sa tavavuvusu pa peso bubuturu, sa sa vei tugu na tinoni tonai sa nongoria na nongoro poni sake ruavo tugu teku qeqerania.The seed sown on rocky ground is the one who hears the word and at once receives it with joy.

21Ba sake bagere vatale pa ona toa mekana ko sake kole sovai pa ona toa. Ko tonai sa raja sa na tapata beto qai komitia na tinoni pa ginuana vei sa vasosotoa na nongoro sisa, poni sake ruavo tugu vukeleona.But since he has no root, he remains for only a season. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, he quickly falls away.

22Goto na kiko sa tavavuvusu pa gasoro vavaioka, sa sa vei na tinoni sa nongoria na nongoro ba na jujuno qai kole pa toa beto na roqu totodi na isisongo pa peso sa sa pilua sa na nongoro isa ko sake vua jonga.The seed sown among the thorns is the one who hears the word, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

23Goto na kiko sa tavavuvusu pa peso masuruna sa sa vei na tinoni sa nongoria na nongoro beto sa vakaberia. Isa sa vua vatale ko sa vua gogoto, na vonomongavulu beto na uengavulu,>> sau si Jisu.But the seed sown on good soil is the one who hears the word and understands it. He indeed bears fruit and produces a crop—a hundredfold, sixtyfold, or thirtyfold.”

24Ego sa vavakatonia mule i Jisu tadira sa kai vavakato vavapada, pira sauniria, <<Na binangara pa noka sa sa kai muqisi podeke vei tonai sa riu vavuvusia na kiko jongana pa ona inuma sa kai tinoni.Jesus put before them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field.

25Ba kai bongi totonai qai korapa puta beto sira doru tinoni sa sa kamu sa kai ona kana, ko sa vavuvusu vavaisomanai laoniria na kiko ikikeredi sa ketakoi sa tei tavavuvusu tu sa na kiko jongadi, beto ko sa turu ko sa riuona.But while everyone was asleep, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and slipped away.

26Tonai qai pidoko sa na umuma ko qai podalai vua, poni sa qai tabata pikata sira na buburu ikeredi qai toa vaisomanai.When the wheat sprouted and bore grain, then the weeds also appeared.

27Poni qai lao tana tinoni poreona inuma sira na pinausu, ko pira qarigu, <Bangara, beko na kiko jongadi gu sa qu vavuvusuria ao pa mua inuma, oko? Ko pai na koko lame veidi sira na buburu ikeredi qai toa pa inuma?> qarigu sira.The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’

28Poni sa oe lao sisa, <Na kana sa sa roiti vei api,> sau sisa. Poni qai paranga sira na pinausu, <Ko ai vei qu nyoguanigei ko me riu sosobulu paleria sira na buburu ikeredi?> qarigu.‘An enemy did this,’ he replied. So the servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’

29Ba sa paranga sa na tinoni poreona inuma, <Dai, ura vei muna sobulu paleria agou kopira, sa kode muna sobulu kale tavitiniria kaki umuma jongadi.‘No,’ he said, ‘if you pull the weeds now, you might uproot the wheat with them.

30Goto loaria ko mai mekarai toa vaikamudia tinganai mina kamua na totoso ababu. Totonai tu mina kamua na totoso ababu, sa kode mana garunuria ara sira na tinoni ababu, ko mai sobulu momoe paleria sira na buburu ikeredi, beto mai piu vavaikamuniria ko mai vato paleria pa niku. Beto sa mai kotu vaikamuniria sira na vua matua jongadi ko mai vakoleria pa qua ruma vavakole gaganina,> sau,>> sau si Jisu.Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat into my barn.’”

31Beto sa vavakatonia mule i Jisu tadira sa kai vavakato vavapada, pira sau, <<Na binangara pa noka sa sa kai muqisi podeke vei kai kiko masitadi sa tekua kai tinoni ko sa vavuvusia pa ona inuma.He put before them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that a man took and planted in his field.

32Sa ikete jolaniria doru kiko sisa, ba totonai sa toa sa sa lavata jolaniria doru umuma pa inuma. Ko sa juki gou lavata ketakoi sisa, ko qai tatava kamu na manugu ko qai okoto roitidia vovori na alale tinganai vei okoto kakaena,>> sau si Jisu.Although it is the smallest of all seeds, yet it grows into the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches.”

33Beto sa vavakatonia mule i Jisu tadira sa kai vavakato vavapada, pira sau, <<Na binangara pa noka sa sa vei na vavakovuruni palava sa tekua kai rereko ko sa qairi vaisomanainia pa kue bakete palava, ko sa kovuru iolo beto tu sa na palava doruna,>> sau si Jisu.He told them still another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like leaven that a woman took and mixed into three measures of flour, until all of it was leavened.”

34Sa kole vaivagigalai laona gu pa vavakato vavapada si Jisu totonai sa kole vaivagigalai tadira na minete tinoni. Ko kepore sa kai ona vavakato lao tadira bike vavapodeke pa vavakato vavapada.Jesus spoke all these things to the crowds in parables. He did not tell them anything without using a parable.

35Sa roiti vei pira sisa ko sa vagore votua sa isa vei sa pojai na tinoni kokorotai, pira sau, <<Mana paranga pa vavakato vavapada sara. Mana uleniria na sakasava qai pae podalai tu na kasia gusu,>> sau.So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet: “I will open My mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden since the foundation of the world.”

36Ego beto sa sa taloa tadira na minete tinoni si Jisu ko sa tome pa leo ruma, poni sa qai lao nanasia ira na ona sepele sisa, pira qarigunia, <<Mu ule vanigei na sa ginuana sa na vavakatona na buburu ikeredi pa inuma,>> qarigu sira.Then Jesus dismissed the crowds and went into the house. His disciples came to Him and said, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds in the field.”

37Poni sa oe laoria i Jisu sira, pira sau, <<Isa sa vavuvusia na kiko jongana sa na Tuna na Tinoni.He replied, “The One who sows the good seed is the Son of Man.

38Na inuma sa na kasia gusu, ira na kiko jongadi sira na tinoni pa binangara tana Tamasa, goto ira na buburu ikeredi sa ira na tinoni tana kutana nikerena.The field is the world, and the good seed represents the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one,

39Na kana isa sa umaniria na buburu ikeredi sa na bangaradi na tomate. Na totoso ababu sa na vinabetona na totoso, goto ira na tinoni ababu sira na mateana.and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels.

40Kai muqisi podeke vei qai takotu vaikamu sira na buburu ikeredi pira ko qai tavato pale pa iku, sa mina vei puputa tugu isa sa mina taroiti pa vinabetona na totoso.As the weeds are collected and burned in the fire, so will it be at the end of the age.

41Na Tuna na Tinoni mina garunuria sira na ona mateana ko mai vile paleria pa ona binangara sira doru sakasava vaivatatupe beto ira qai roiti vasela.The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will weed out of His kingdom every cause of sin and all who practice lawlessness.

42Ko mai tagona valao pa leo iku memea sira ko ketakoi mai lukana uui beto mina ngingisi tu na livodi.And they will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

43Goto ira na tinoni tuvisidi sa mai tolanga vei na kaberena na tapo pa binangara tana Tamadi. Isa sa koleona talingina sa mi vainongoro vatale!>> sau si Jisu.Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.

44<<Na binangara pa noka sa sa vei kai isisongo poreveveina kole golomona pa kai kobu peso. Totonai sa batia kai tinoni sa na isisongo api poni sa sa amu vakole golomo beia, beto ko sa taloa qeqera ko sa riu vavai betoniria sira doru sakasava sa isongoria ko sa vai tekua na ona sa na kobu peso isa,>> sau si Jisu.The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and in his joy he went and sold all he had and bought that field.

45<<Na binangara pa noka sa sa vei mutugu kai tinoni sa nyaqo mamateria na patu jojongadi na poreveveidi.Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls.

46Ko tonai sa batia kame isa sa babata jonga jola, poni sa sa lao ko sa vavai betoniria sira doru ona sakasava ko sa vaitekua na ona sa na patu babata jonga jola api,>> sau si Jisu.When he found one very precious pearl, he went away and sold all he had and bought it.

47<<Na binangara pa noka sa sa vei mutugu na vaqara sa taipa lao pa kolo ko kubo okokoto iganadi sa qai kura pa leona.Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was cast into the sea and caught all kinds of fish.

48Totonai sa pugelia na igana sa na vaqara, sa qai bako vaparoa pa parona ira na tino abu ko qai kole vileria sira na igana. Ira na jongadi sa qai kuraniria pa kukurana, goto ira nake jongadi sa qai gona paleria.When it was full, the men pulled it ashore. Then they sat down and sorted the good fish into containers, but threw the bad away.

49Ko kode inara tugu mina vei sa pa vinabetona na totoso. Ira na mateana sa mai votu lao ko mai vile paleria sira na tinoni ikikeredi qai vaisomanai tadira na tinoni tuvisidi.So will it be at the end of the age: The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous

50Ko mai tagona valao pa leo iku memea sira ko ketakoi mai lukana uui beto mina ngingisi tu na livodi,>> sau si Jisu.and throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

51Ego beto sa nanasaria i Jisu sira na ona sepele, pira sau, <<Ai vei, qu gigilaimiu tugu agou sira na vaivagigalai aipira?>> sau. Poni sa, <<E,>> qarigu sira.Have you understood all these things?” “Yes,” they answered.

52Poni pira sauniria, <<Ego ko sa vei sa, ira doru tinoni vavaivagigalai pa Vavanau ti Mosese qai tavagigalainia na veveina na binangara pa noka sa qai vei na tinoni sa vavoturia pa ona lose kokopuni sakasavana sira na vaivagigalai koregadi beto na leludi,>> sau si Jisu.Then He told them, “For this reason, every scribe who has been discipled in the kingdom of heaven is like a homeowner who brings out of his storeroom new treasures as well as old.”

53Ego ko pa liguna sa beto vaivagigalainiria i Jisu sira doru vavakato vavapada aipira, sa sa taloa pa ia isa sisa,When Jesus had finished these parables, He withdrew from that place.

54ko sa lao pa ona gugusu ketakoi sa lavata sae ko sa vaivagigalai sisa pa ruma vavaikamuna ketakoi. Ko qai gabara beto sira doru totonai qai nongoria na ona vaivagigalai. Ko qai paranga sira, <<Pai sa tekunia na bangara api sira na gigigalai beto na roiti vaivagabaradi veveidi inara?Coming to His hometown, He taught the people in their synagogue, and they were astonished. “Where did this man get such wisdom and miraculous powers?” they asked.

55Taqe gigilaioda gu gita sa na tinoni api! Na tuna gu na kamada sapi! Na isongona na tinana si Mere gu ke! Ko ira na tasina marene sira Jekopi i Josepa i Saimone beto i Jiudasi gu ke!“Isn’t this the carpenter’s son? Isn’t His mother’s name Mary, and aren’t His brothers James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas?

56Ko ira na luluna rereko ba qai korapa gu suvere tavitigita pira! Ko na tinoni api pai sa butiniria isa sira na vaivagigalai beto na roiti veveidi inara?>> qarigu.Aren’t all His sisters with us as well? Where then did this man get all these things?”

57Ko qai kilu pale ira sisa. Ba pira sauniria i Jisu sira, <<Na tinoni kokorotai kisa pa ona gugusu ketakoi sa lavata sae gu beto pa ona tatamana gu sa sake tatavaragua, goto pa goto gusu tu sa tatavaragua,>> sau sisa.And they took offense at Him. But Jesus said to them, “Only in his hometown and in his own household is a prophet without honor.”

58Ko sake roitiniria soku roiti vaivagabaradi pa ia isa si Jisu, ura koko vei ira na tinoni qaike vasosotoa sisa.And He did not do many miracles there, because of their unbelief.
