Luke 11 (MFXL) · Opened

1Pettii gallas Yesuusa pettii aqo woossiza. Woosa wursseezaypp e tamaaritaypp pettay, «Godayyo, Waannisa fa taamarita woosa taamaarisseeza igarkk neekka nuna woosa tamaarssoba» yeegeeza.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.”

2Yesuusa, «Yhay garkke yeegii woossoytta: «‹Salo yez nu adayyo ne geesh sunthay anjjintto; ne kaatetithay ye7o.So Jesus told them, “When you pray, say: ‘Father, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come.

3Nu gallasa katha yhayino yhayino nuus inggoba.Give us each day our daily bread.

4Nuna qoheezita nuunii atto gizay garkk, nu nagara atto goba; paace gancce nuna gelisippe› yeegoytta» yeegeeza.And forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into temptation.’”

5Maaqqikka, Yesuusa fa tamaaritayiko yeegeeza: «Aazisos yinttipp pettayis laggee yeza. E giddii bilahe fa laggay kara yhanigii, ‹Ta laggayyo, hayidzii soollo taas tali7ooye.Then Jesus said to them, “Suppose one of you goes to his friend at midnight and says, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,

6Taas laggee maaqqeez pettii asii ogepp yi7in, ezis aathod baz tana dhabeeza› yeegiko,because a friend of mine has come to me on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him.’

7«E laggay keetha gancce yezii, ‹Hayyana tana waaythippe, pengay kobintteeza. Ta na7itaykka taar arssal afa woyi7eeza. Yey gishos, denddii ne koyeez baza inggodayis danda7ooya› yeeginene?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.’

8Ta yinttis odiza; laggetithay gishos denddii immadayis koyekka maaqqikokka woosar wayitheez gishos denddii koyiz baz ubba inggiza.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.

9«Yey gishos, taanii yinttis odiza; woossoytta yinttis inginttoda; kozhoytta yi denggoda; bale yi7ii xeegoytta yinttis dooyinttoda.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.

10Woossiza ubbay ekkiza; koyizay denggiza; bale yi7ii xeegizayis dooyinttoda.For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.

11«Yinttanno, aditayyo yi ganccepp na7a boora woosiko shuchchi ingizay oonoo? Molo woosiko shooshii ingizay oonoo?What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead?

12Woy phuuphphule woosiko yhanigarcco ingginee?Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?

13Yi iitita maaqqittar yi na7itayis lo77o baz imo eriko, salo yez yi aday woossizitayis Geeshsha Ayyana wayizii aathii inggaamo?» yeegeeza.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!”

14Pettii gallas Yesuusa doona muumiseez tuna ayyana pettii athaypp kesseeza. Tuna ayyanay kezeezan garkk muume athay odintteeza. Woyaykka malabaz geeza.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,

15Zin pettay pettay, «Tuna ayyana halaqa, Bi7elzebula wolqqar tuna ayyanita kessiza» yeegeeza.but some of them said, “It is by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons, that He drives out demons.”

16Yhankkitay ma faaccodayis salopp malla beezodaygarkk koyeeza.And others tested Him by demanding a sign from heaven.

17Zin Yesuusa u qofa erii unttiko, «Woli gancce shaginttiza kaatetithii ubbitay dhabiza; woli gancce shaginttiza keethi woddiza.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.

18Xalahe kaatetithay shaakinttiko e kaatetithay wayizii miinggii eqqodee? Yi tana, ‹E tuna ayyanita Bi7elzebula wolqqar kessiza› giza.If Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom stand? After all, you say that I drive out demons by Beelzebul.

19Yikkee, taanii tuna ayyana Bi7elzebula wolqqar kessiza baz maaqqiko yinttan kaallizitay o wolqqar kessodeshsha? Yey gishos, unttii yinttal afa pirddizita maaqqoda.And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.

20Zin taanii tuna ayyanita Xooss wolqqar kessiza baz maaqqiko yikkee Xoossa kaatetithay yinttiko ukkeezana eroytta.But if I drive out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.

21«Miinth as danccinttii fa keetha naagiz maaqqiko, e shalay bochinttenna.When a strong man, fully armed, guards his house, his possessions are secure.

22Hano zin, ezipp aadhii miinth maaqqeez as yi7ii, eza qohi gamii ammaninttii dancceez dancca bilisii, e shalana bonqqii shagiza.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«Taar wolla maaqqekkazay tana ixxiza; taar shiishozaykka laalliza.He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.

24«Tuna ayyanay asappi kezeez wode shemppiza aqo koyii haathii baa aqor yuuyii. Shemppiza aqo dhabeez wode ‹Maaqqii ta kezeez karttee yhammada› yeegiza.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.’

25E maaqqiz wode keethay pitinttii lo77i yezin denggeeza.On its return, it finds the house swept clean and put in order.

26Yeypp guye, yhanigii ezipp aadhii iiteez hara laappun tuna ayyanita ekkii yi7iza. Ezal gelii yess aykkiza. Ye athayis tiinaasaypp guyeesay aadhii iita maaqqiza» yeegeeza.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.”

27Yesuusa yeya odal afa yezin pettii asita woya ganccepp dendii, fa qaala dhoqqi udii, «Nena tookkeez ulayinnee ne ammeez ammitay anjjintteeza» yeegeeza.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!”

28Zin E, «Anjjintteezitay Xooss qaala si7ii kiitinttizita» yeegeeza.But He replied, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.”

29Gaame asay shiiqeez wode Yesuusa, «Yha yeletithay iita; malla koyiza. Zin Yoonasa mallitaypp attin hara unttis ingginttooya.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.

30Yoonasa Nanawe asayis malla maaqqeezay garkk As Na7aykka yha yeletithayis malla maaqqada.For as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so the Son of Man will be a sign to this generation.

31Kaatata Saaba pirdde gallas yha yeletithayira dendii pirddoda. Abis giiko, iza Solomone eccetitha si7odayis biitta gaxapp dendii ye7eeza. Yeezako Solomonepp aadhizay yhaydda yezaThe 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.

32Nanawe asay pirdde gallas yha yeletithayira dendii unttal afa pirddoda. Abis giiko Yoonasa sibkkater maarotithi geleeza. Yeezako, Yoonasapp aadhizay yhaydda yeza» yeegeeza.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«Xomppe xomppii qoso aqo woy ota gancce gaddiza asii baaya. Asii poo7ana be7ad garkk dhoqqe aqo gaddiza.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.

34Ne galla ubbayis poo7ay ne aafa. Ne aafay lo77o maaqqiko, ne kunth gallay poo7iza. Ne aafay harggiko ne gallay ubbay dhumiza.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.

35Yey gishos, ne gancce yez poo7ay dhumaam garkk naagiza.Be careful, then, that the light within you is not darkness.

36Yikkee, ne kunth gallay poo7o maaqqiko, ne asetithayidakka hara dhuma aqo dhabiko, ne galla kunthay wazhzhii geez poo7o garkk maaqqiza» yeegeeza.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.”

37Yesuusa fa nashsha wurisseezan garkk pettii Ferisaaway paar katha maaday garkk xeegeeza. E ezar wolla gelii sibirel afa betteeza.As Jesus was speaking, a Pharisee invited Him to dine with him; so He went in and reclined at the table.

38Ferisaaway Yesuusa katha maadaypp tiina kushe meeccekkaza bi7ii malabaz geeza.But the Pharisee was surprised to see that Jesus did not first wash before the meal.

39Goday eziko, «Yinttii Ferisaawitay wanccasinnee keres afa bagga meecciza. Zin yi ganccay bonqqannee iitatithar kumeeza.Then the Lord said, “Now you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness.

40Yinttano, boozitayyo, bale bagga medhdheezay gancce medhdheez goday eza baasannee?You fools! Did not the One who made the outside make the inside as well?

41Zin wanccannee keree yezana manqqitayis inggoytta. Ye wode yinttis ubba baz geesh maaqqada.But give as alms the things that are within you, and behold, everything will be clean for you.

42«Ferisaawitayyo yinttan ayye, sawopp, xalootepp, yey garkk bazipp asiraata kessiza. Zin xillotithinnee Xooss qadhe yinttar baaya. Yhankkita ashshekkazar yhayititakka oothodayis beeziza, zin yi ashsheeza.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«Ferisaawitayyo yinttan ayye, Ayihuditay Woosa Keetha bonchcho oyide, gabe gancce bonchcho sarotho yi dosiza.Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the chief seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.

44«Liilamii dhabin asay erekkazar afar yedhdhiz duufo aazizittayyo yinttan ayye» yeegeeza.Woe to you! For you are like unmarked graves, which men walk over without even noticing.”

45Higge asitamaaray maaqqii, «Asitamaarayyo, ne yeya giittar nuna cazhiza» yeegeeza.One of the experts in the law told Him, “Teacher, when You say these things, You insult us as well.”

46Yesuusa, «Yinttano, higge asitamaaritayyo, yinttanakka ayye, asii tookkodayis danda7oowa deexo toofo toossiza, zin yinttii yi ubbas hara attozin biradhdhe xeerarakka bochchoyya.“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.

47«Yi aditay wodhdheez nabitay duufa yi giigisiza gishos yinttan ayye.Woe to you! For you build tombs for the prophets, but it was your fathers who killed them.

48Yikkee, yi aditay oosa minthodayis u wodhdheez nabitay duufa yi lo7ithiza gishos u iita oosayis yi markka.So you are witnesses consenting to the deeds of your fathers: They killed the prophets, and you build their tombs.

49Yey gishos, Xoossay fa ecetithar, ‹Nabitannee hawaarita ta yinttis kiittoda, zin yi baggita wodhoda; yhankkita bayi7oda› yeegeeza.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.’

50Yey gishos, yha yeletithitay alamay medhintteezayppe yhanno hellodayis laalintteez nabitay ubbitay suuthayis oyiccinttoda.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,

51Aabeelapp aykkii yarshsho aqosinne Xooss Keethapp ganccer laalintteez Zakkireesa suuthay gishos yha yeletithay oyiccinttoda.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«Higge asitamaaritayyo, yinttan ayye, eretithi qulppa yi kushe aykkeeza, zin yinttis gelooya yhankkitakka gelisooya» yeegeeza.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.”

53Yesuusa yeypp yhammadayis kezodar higge asitamaaritaynnee Ferisaawitay ezar eqinttii oyichchar wayitheeza.As Jesus went on from there, the scribes and Pharisees began to oppose Him bitterly and to ply Him with questions about many things,

54E doonapp keziz qaalar eza aykkodayis koyii yeya ootheeza.waiting to catch Him in something He might say.
