1
MGV
Lisoba limu baajopa kodi na bana mahakau bingi bajenda kunzowane Yesu.
BSB
BSB:
Now all the tax collectors and sinners were gathering around to listen to Jesus.
2
MGV
Lakini Afalisayu na abola ba Malagalaki batumbuka kusikatika, “Mundu ajo, jaajopa bana mahakau, kabee jutenda kula nabu.”
BSB
BSB:
So the Pharisees and scribes began to grumble: “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.”
3
MGV
Ndipala Yesu jaapwagila malengano ganga.
BSB
BSB:
Then Jesus told them this parable:
4
MGV
“Ana jumu kati jii jubi na makondoo makomi komi, najumanyiki limu liteikuhoba, jiitenda bole? Jwagaleka makondoo makomi tisa na tisa pululela nukujenda kulitaputa limu lelihobiki mbaka julipata.
BSB
BSB:
“What man among you, if he has a hundred sheep and loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the pasture and go after the one that is lost, until he finds it?
5
MGV
Najilipatiki, jalitogula puubega koni jutogule,
BSB
BSB:
And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders,
6
MGV
nu kulipeleka pa nyumba. Ndienu jaakema akosi baki na bapambipi baki na kaapwagi, ‘Ntoguliya pamwa nane ndaba mbatiki likondoo langu lelahobiki.’
BSB
BSB:
comes home, and calls together his friends and neighbors to tell them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my lost sheep!’
7
MGV
Numpwagi, kwibia nukutogule ngamaa kunani kwaka Sapanga mundu jumu jwana mahakau ana julekaki mahakau gaki kupeta bandu tisini na tisa babilibona bombi baamboni palongi jaka Sapanga koni ngaseapala kulekake mahakau gabu.”
BSB
BSB:
I tell you that in the same way there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous ones who do not need to repent.
8
MGV
“Au tupwaga mmbomba jumu jubii na mangengalema komi gu lupija, ana juhoiki lingengalema limu boo, jwiitenda bole? Jipambakiya taa, nuku pyagii mu nyumba nukulitaputa mbaka julipata.
BSB
BSB:
Or what woman who has ten silver coins and loses one of them does not light a lamp, sweep her house, and search carefully until she finds it?
9
MGV
Najilipatiki, jaakema akakosi baki na ba pambipi jaki nakaapwagi, ‘Ntoguliya pamwa nane, ndaba mbatiki lingengalema langu lelahobiki!’
BSB
BSB:
And when she finds it, she calls together her friends and neighbors to say, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my lost coin.’
10
MGV
Ahelahela numpwagi, atumi bu kunani kwaka Sapanga biitoguliya ngamaa ndaba jaka mundu jumu jwana mahakau jojulekake mahakau gaki.”
BSB
BSB:
In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of God’s angels over one sinner who repents.”
11
MGV
Yesu jaendaliya kupwaga, “Jwabi mundu jumu jojabi na bana akanalomi abeli.
BSB
BSB:
Then Jesus said,
“There was a man who had two sons.
12
MGV
Mwana nsoku jola jaapwagila atati baki, ‘Atati, mmbekia lipungu la hindu yango.’ Najombi jaabagila hindu yaki.
BSB
BSB:
The younger son said to him, ‘Father, give me my share of the estate.’ So he divided his property between them.
13
MGV
Hegapeta masoba masokopi, nsoku jola jwalombisa hindu yaki, jwaboka pala kujenda musi uku tali. Kokuje jwajomula lupija lwaki kulombe indu ya lyaa ngamaa.
BSB
BSB:
After a few days, the younger son got everything together and journeyed to a distant country, where he squandered his wealth in wild living.
14
MGV
Pajwajomula lupija lwaki, ling'ai li inzala ngolongu japitila mu musi we gola, najombi jatumbuliya kung'alika.
BSB
BSB:
After he had spent all he had, a severe famine swept through that country, and he began to be in need.
15
MGV
Ndipala jajenda kuloba lihengu kwaka mundu jumwa mwenei jwa musi gola, mundu we jola ampekiya lihengu lukulea magolobi mwi litui laki.
BSB
BSB:
So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed the pigs.
16
MGV
Jatokuliya ngamaa kula manyonyoli gajuleikya magolobi lakini nga mundu joampekiya posu.
BSB
BSB:
He longed to fill his belly with the pods the pigs were eating, but no one would give him a thing.
17
MGV
Pajapata malangu jawasalya, ‘Atati bangu abi na baahenga lihengu bingi, mbona akula nu kutupi hadi posu jengi kuigii, nane ngua pamba ni inzala!’
BSB
BSB:
Finally he came to his senses and said, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have plenty of food, but here I am, starving to death!
18
MGV
Nikelubukya kwa atati bangu nakaapwagila, ‘Atati, nuntendii mahakau Sapanga na kabee nu nuntendi mahakau mwa atati.’
BSB
BSB:
I will get up and go back to my father and say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you.
19
MGV
Ngasembalika hata kungema na mwana wako, gunhenga ngati jumwa jwa atumisi bako.”
BSB
BSB:
I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants.”’
20
MGV
Ndienu jatumbuliya sapwali kukelabuki kwa atati baki. “Lakini pajwabiya jwakona kutali, ahengo baki eabummbona ambonila ikia anzombatakiya, nukunzobate, nukumbusu.”
BSB
BSB:
So he got up and went to his father. But while he was still in the distance, his father saw him and was filled with compassion. He ran to his son, embraced him, and kissed him.
21
MGV
“Mwana jaapwagila, ‘Atati bango, nunhengi mahakau Sapanga na kabee nunhengi mwenhapa mahakau. Ngasembalika kungema na mwana wino.’
BSB
BSB:
The son declared, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’
22
MGV
Lakini atati baki jakema atumisi baki nakaapwagi, ‘Nyatanyata! Nndeta ingobu ya sapi munhwatika! Munhwatika na peti ja ngonzi mulukonzi lwaki na makobasi mu kugolu jaki.
BSB
BSB:
But the father said to his servants, ‘Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet.
23
MGV
Nsinza Litoli lelikendiki. Twaboa tukula nu kutogule!
BSB
BSB:
Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let us feast and celebrate.
24
MGV
Ndaba mwanangu jonzo jabi juwii, lakini henu jubi nsima, jabi juhobiki, lakini henu jubonakini. Henu batenda kutogule.’ ”
BSB
BSB:
For this son of mine was dead and is alive again! He was lost and is found!’ So they began to celebrate.
25
MGV
“Tipati ejwabia jitenda kuendale mwana waki nkolongu jabia jakona ku litui. Ejwabiya jukelabuka juegale kuhika pa nyumba jajowana ing'oma na bandu bakahina.
BSB
BSB:
Meanwhile the older son was in the field, and as he approached the house, he heard music and dancing.
26
MGV
Ndienu ankema mtumisi jumu, nukundalu, ‘Panyumba hapa kibikike?’
BSB
BSB:
So he called one of the servants and asked what was going on.
27
MGV
Mtumisi jola ampwagila, ‘Nnuuna waku juhikike, na atati baku asinzi litoli lelikendiki ndaba mwana waki juhikiki kunyumba jwakona mwome.’
BSB
BSB:
‘Your brother has returned,’ he said, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has him back safe and sound.’
28
MGV
Nkombu nkolongu jwatenda kuyoma, jakana kujingi nkati, ndienu atati baki bapita kunza nuku nndoba jujingala nkati.
BSB
BSB:
The older son became angry and refused to go in. So his father came out and pleaded with him.
29
MGV
Lakini jombi jaajibua atati baki, ‘Linga, yaka joha heyi nugu tumaki ngati mtumi waku, ngasenakaaniki gawambwagila kuhenga. Lakini ngasewambeki hata kambui kasoku ndoguliya na akosi bango!
BSB
BSB:
But he answered his father, ‘Look, all these years I have served you and never disobeyed a commandment of yours. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends.
30
MGV
Lakini mwana waku jojuhalabini hindu yaku pamu naaka mbomba baatenda ugoni hejuhikiki pee pa nyumba mweapa munsinzi litoli lelikendiki!’
BSB
BSB:
But when this son of yours returns from squandering your wealth with prostitutes, you kill the fattened calf for him!’
31
MGV
Atati baki bumpwagila, ‘Mwanango, weapa gubi na ne masoba goha, na hindu yoka yeminaku nepani ndi yaku.
BSB
BSB:
‘Son, you are always with me,’ the father said, ‘and all that is mine is yours.
32
MGV
Lakini tupalika kutogule nukuhekale, ndaba nnuuna waku we hoju twamanyiki juwii, lakini henu jubii mwomi, jabi juhobiki, lakini henu jubonakini.’ ”
BSB
BSB:
But it was fitting to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’”
