Luke 5 (MFXL) · Opened

1Pettii gallas Yesuusa Gensareexe Abba lanqqe eqqeezin gaame asay e kantta ukkii urqqinttittar, E taamarssizana Xoossa qaala si7iza.On one occasion, while Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret with the crowd pressing in on Him to hear the word of God,

2Ezayid abbay gaxa yez nam77ii wogolita be7eeza. Molo aykkiz asitay wogolitaypp wodhdhii fa gita meecciza.He saw two boats at the edge of the lake. The fishermen had left them and were washing their nets.

3Ye wogolitaypp Simoonaare gelii biittapp xiqqal gedi abay ganccel shiishoday garkk oyceeza. Yeezii, ye wogolatayid bettii asa wongile taamarsseeza.Jesus got into the boat belonging to Simon and asked him to put out a little from shore. And sitting down, He taught the people from the boat.

4Fa tamaarssa wurisseezaypp guye Simoonako, «Gede ciimmayiko shiishii molo aykkodayis yi gita oloytta» yeegeeza.When Jesus had finished speaking, He said to Simon, “Put out into deep water and let down your nets for a catch.”

5Simoona mahii, «Asitamaarayyo, qamma muda daaburittar aqi abikka aykkekkaya, zin ne giiko neqaalayir gita nu oloda» yeegeeza.“Master,” Simon replied, “we have worked hard all night without catching anything. But because You say so, I will let down the nets.”

6U gita oleez wode gitay peedhinttod gatho gaame molo aykkeeza.When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to tear.

7Hara wogolo gancce yez fa zhamitay yi7ii, fana maaddod garkk wuttii xeegeeza. U yi7ii nam77ii wogolita, haathay gancce mitinttod gatho molo kuntheeza.So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.

8Simoon Phixiroosa yeya be7eez wode Yesuusa tiina xuggunii, «Godayoo, taanii nagaranchcho as maaqqeez gishos taapp shaakinttoba» yeegeeza.When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees. “Go away from me, Lord,” he said, “for I am a sinful man.”

9Yeya E geezay ezinnee ezar yezitay aykkeez molay gaametithayir malabaz maaqqeez gishos.For he and his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken,

10Ma Simoona zhame maaqqeez Zabidoosa na7itay Yayqqoobarannee Waannisara malabaz geeza. Yesuusa Simoonako, «Yashittippe! Yhanpp neenii as aykkiz as maaqqoda» yeegeeza.and so were his partners James and John, the sons of Zebedee. “Do not be afraid,” Jesus said to Simon. “From now on you will catch men.”

11U wogolita gaxa shiisheezaypp guye ubbita ashshii Yesuusana kaalo aykkeeza.And when they had brought their boats ashore, they left everything and followed Him.

12Yesuusa katamitaypp pettayid maaqqii yeezin pettii boriqontto harger aykintteez asii ye katamayid yeza. Ye athay Yesuusa bi7ii e tiinayid xuggunii, «Godayyo, ne shene maaqqiko tana geeshshodayis ne danda7iza» gi woosseeza.While Jesus was in one of the towns, a man came along who was covered with leprosy. When he saw Jesus, he fell facedown and begged Him, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”

13Yesuusa fa kusha dakkii bochchii, «Ee, ta shene; geezhoba» yeegeeza. Izir athay geezheeza.Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” He said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him.

14Yesuusa, «Yhaya ooskka odippe, zin yhanigii nenatitha qeesa beezoba. Ne geezheezayis markka maaqqod garkk Muse kiitteez yarshshana yarshshoba» gi azazeeza.“Do not tell anyone,” Jesus instructed him. “But go, show yourself to the priest and present the offering Moses prescribed for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”

15Maaqqozin, Yesuusa waaray kasepp aadhii dalggittar yhanigeeza. Gaame asay E odiza baz si7odaysinnee fa hargepp paxodayis yi7iza.But the news about Jesus spread all the more, and great crowds came to hear Him and to be healed of their sicknesses.

16Zin ezii ubba wode fa aaddas geema aqo yhanigii woossiza.Yet He frequently withdrew to the wilderness to pray.

17Pettii gallas Yesuusa tamaarssodar Galilappera Yihuda heera ubbaypp ma Yerusalaameppekka ye7eez Ferasaawitayira higge asitamaaritay ezayid betteeza. Asa pathiza Goday wolqqaykka ezar yeza.One day Jesus was teaching, and the Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there. People had come from Jerusalem and from every village of Galilee and Judea, and the power of the Lord was present for Him to heal the sick.

18Ye wode asay pettii sila as halar tookkii ke7eeza. Kara gelisii e tiinayid gaddodayis koyeeza.Just then some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They tried to bring him inside to set him before Jesus,

19Zin as darotithaypp kara gelsodayis gaminttii keethal afa kezii, siittingaa qawuxxii, harggintteez atha halar asa shagii Yesuusa tiina wotheeza.but they could not find a way through the crowd. So they went up on the roof and lowered him on his mat through the tiles into the middle of the crowd, right in front of Jesus.

20Yesuusa u ammana bi7ii, «Naat athayyo, ne nagaray atto ginttintteeza» yeegeeza.When Jesus saw their faith, He said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.”

21Higge asitamaaritaynnee Ferisaawe asay, «Yhayi Xooss cazhizay oonoo? Pettii Xoossapp attin hara nagara atto godayiss danda7izay oonoo?» yeegii qoppeeza.But the scribes and Pharisees began thinking to themselves, “Who is this man who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

22Yesuusa u qofa ereez gishos unttiko, «Yi wozina gancce yey garkk abis qoppee?Knowing what they were thinking, Jesus replied, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts?

23‹Ne nagaray ucintteeza gizayppenne dendii yedhdhoba gizayipp aayi lo77o?›Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’?

24Zin ta yeya geezay As Na7ay biittal afa nagara uccodayis mawute yezana yi erodgarkke.» Yeypp maaqqii, sila athayko, «Denddii; ne arssa tookkii ne kara yhanigoba» yeegeeza.But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on the earth to forgive sins…” He said to the paralytic, “I tell you, get up, pick up your mat, and go home.”

25E ellithii denddii u tiina eqqeeza; E tookinttii ye7eez arisa tookkii Xoossa galatittar fa kara yhanigeeza.And immediately the man stood up before them, took what he had been lying on, and went home glorifying God.

26Ye wode ubbitaykka malabaz geeza. Xoossa galatittar, «Yhayino nu damma malata be7eeza» yeegii yashitteeza.Everyone was taken with amazement and glorified God. They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.”

27Yeypp guye, Yesuusa yeypp kezii yhanigittar. Lewe ginttinttiz pettii qaraxe gachisizay qaraxe gachisiza aqo betteezana bi7ii, «Tana kaalloba» yeegeeza.After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him,

28E ubba baz ashshii denddii eza kaalleeza.and Levi got up, left everything, and followed Him.

29Ye Leway fa kara dammo sibire giigiseeza. Gaame qaraxe gachishizitayinnee hara asay katha maadayis betteeza.Then Levi hosted a great banquet for Jesus at his house. A large crowd of tax collectors was there, along with others who were eating with them.

30Farasaawitayira higge asitamaaritay, «Qaraxe gachchisizitayrannee nagara oothizitayir abis mi uzhee?» yeegii Yesuusa tamaaritayir eza zigireeza.But the Pharisees and their scribes complained to Jesus’ disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”

31Yesuusa unttiko, «Harggntteezttaypp attin pathi asis akime koshshooya.Jesus answered, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.

32Taanii nagara oothizitta maarotithiko mahodayispp attin geeshshita xeegodayis ye7ekkaya» yeegii maheeza.I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance.”

33U Yesuusako, «Waannisa tamaaritay gaame xoomiza, ma Ferisaawitay tamaaritaykka yey garkk oothiza. Zin neesitay ubba wode miizay uzhizay abiso» yeegeeza.Then they said to Him, “John’s disciples and those of the Pharisees frequently fast and pray, but Yours keep on eating and drinking.”

34Yesuusa unttiko, «Machcho ekkizay unttar yezin laazanthitay xoomoday garkk oothodayis danda7inee?Jesus replied, “Can you make the guests of the bridegroom fast while He is with them?

35Zin machcho ekkizay unttapp shaakinttod gallas ye7oda, ye wode unttii xoomoda.»But the time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.”

36Ma yeegii aaziso odeeza; «Orothi ma7opp peedhii cima afilall afa sikkiza oonkka baaya. Yey garkk oothiko oroth afila per7iza, orothay cimayis giigooya.He also told them a parable: “No one tears a piece of cloth from a new garment and sews it on an old one. If he does, he will tear the new garment as well, and the patch from the new will not match the old.

37Mal7antto woyine cima ogoro gancce buulliz oonkka baaya. Yeya oothiko, mal7antto woynay cima ogora dhuusiza; woynay laalinttiza ogoraykka adooya.And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the new wine will burst the skins, the wine will spill, and the wineskins will be ruined.

38Yey gishos, mal7antto woyne orothi ogoro gancce buulinttodayis beeziza.Instead, new wine is poured into new wineskins.

39Yikkee, ka7eezay lo77o giz gishos ka7o woyne uzhii maaqqii mal7antto koyizay oonkka baaya» yeegeeza.And no one after drinking old wine wants new, for he says, ‘The old is better.’”
