Luke 6 (NCE) · Opened

1Jisas tafawa olëna, witi liji nuju kukuwa bule mëtëtagujaya. Na bubë lowene esogo mëglelëtlabë ho, witi liji tëtlë mëtla, na sosa mototoma, jibo foke namëgletëmeme. Na mana afabo hi mëtla.One Sabbath Jesus was passing through the grainfields, and His disciples began to pick the heads of grain, rub them in their hands, and eat them.

2Na Farisi ho fli, bume hwi motloma na këme takune mëtla, “Euowe! Ebë kwe sobo sogëna lalo. Ebë kwe tafawa olë fe. Sobo tafawa olëna, hi wesibi, fëyeme tëtlë elone? Fëyeme wege elone? Moses bu ëtani kë lowenebëme tako hehë latle.”But some of the Pharisees asked, “Why are you doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?”

3Na Jisas bubë gali tafu tëtatëme, “Sobo, sebobë ëtanifu eso ho, Devitbë gali, Gotobë bogo mago, hwi sle hana elolone? Bo melëme gali nolëyo. Ëtani Devitna, kë tafa mëtëglabë ho, foneme gigli memëtla.Jesus replied, “Have you not read what David did when he and his companions were hungry?

4Na Devit Gotobë lowa tëkaklu, na bu Gotobë naba li mëta kë gogwa mëtlabë bletë nage glo telule. Kë bletë nage, oneho hana hihi mëtla, lotu lome wege mëglabë ho, buwa hihi mëtla. Kwe Devit wali hi tle na bume kë tafa tëglelëmebë home wali sa tëtatëme na bu hi mëtla. Sobo kë gali hwi hana elolone? Ëëë?”He entered the house of God, took the consecrated bread and gave it to his companions, and ate what is lawful only for the priests to eat.”

5Na Jisas bume ita gali tlome, “Kwe bo, Gotobë life mago ho, bo tafawa olëbë tako ho.”Then Jesus declared, “The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath.”

6Li tafawa olëna, Jisas lotu lowa tëkaklu, na onehome gali të tëtatëme. Na tobamu toba mogo tabo ho këme tafa telule.On another Sabbath Jesus entered the synagogue and was teaching, and a man was there whose right hand was withered.

7Na Gotobë galime okokwe moglomabë ho, na Farisi ho, Jisasme mana hwiwa motlola. Bu melëme hwi motlola, bu tafawa olëna, onehome sle logotomemene o hanane? Bu melowene namëglame, “Jisas bu tafawa olëna onehome sle logotomena, kwe bume onehobë gali aholokwane moglomabë letitabo hobë naba li elëme mëglelula namëglame, bume tëbo namogotlame. Bu tafawa olëna wege lëgleme nëgeme.”Looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, the scribes and Pharisees were watching Him closely to see if He would heal on the Sabbath.

8Kwe Jisas bubë lowene walowene tletëme. Këme nëgeme, kë toba mogo tabo home gali tlole, “Ju bo belë esime na emëta elikakime.” Na kë ho bu belë tuju tle na bubë lime tlibetle.But Jesus knew their thoughts and said to the man with the withered hand, “Get up and stand among us.” So he got up and stood there.

9Na Jisas bume takune tlome, “Sebobë semle Mosesbë gali habelë lëgëbetle lalëlene? Sebo tafawa olëna lale lowene lalowa esogo nëglelëlamene o tëbo lowene esogo nëglelëlame? Sebo onehome lalowa nëgaitamamene, bu lale tafa namëglame o tëbo nogotomame?” Kwe bubë gali tafu hana mëtëtatla.Then Jesus said to them, “I ask you, which is lawful on the Sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life or to destroy it?”

10Na Jisas bume hwi tlagume, na kë home gali tlole, “Jubë toba elili etokwakle.” Na bu melë totle, na bubë toba lalowa tëbetle.And after looking around at all of them, He said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He did so, and it was restored.

11Kwe Gotobë galime okokwe moglomabë ho, na Farisi ho, bu tako enisusu memëtletla, na blalo gëgali mëtla, “Euowe, Sebo Jisasme habelë nogotlamene?”But the scribes and Pharisees were filled with rage and began to discuss with one another what they might do to Jesus.

12Na kë nalëwa, Jisas fatiniwa tokwale, Gotome gëgali nalëglelëleme. Na bu klabë tako, Gotome gëgali tëgëmaitalebëë na mana feti na loko metleble.In those days Jesus went out to the mountain to pray, and He spent the night in prayer to God.

13Kliji fe tole, na bubë lowene esogo mëglelëtlabë home gali telokwakëme, bu belë migisitla namëglame. Na bu belë mitisitla. Na bu we ita tële home aniji tlome, na Aposel wenijina fëfë totome.When daylight came, He called His disciples to Him and chose twelve of them, whom He also designated as apostles:

14Bu Saimonme aniji tlole. Na Jisas bume li tiho weniji fë totle, “Pita.” Na bu Saimonbë bolijamo, Andrume mata aniji tlole. Na bu Jems, Jon, Filip, Bartolomyu,Simon, whom He named Peter, and his brother Andrew; James and John; Philip and Bartholomew;

15Matyu, Tomas, Alfiusbë bowene Jems, Saimon name aniji tlome. Saimon bu Selot ho.Matthew and Thomas; James son of Alphaeus and Simon called the Zealot;

16Na bu Jemsbë bowene Judas name aniji tlome. Na Judas Iskariot name mata aniji tlome. Judas Iskariot bu Jisasme wamehome kë yo toglomebë ho.Judas son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.

17Jisas, bu kë aniji toglomebë ho name, fatini mago kle mëtëmalitaya. Na buna fli lowene esogo mëglelëtlabë hona, lale tabo mëta tlebime. Na feilawa oneho, Judia provinsbë li life li life mago, na Jerusalem lifate mago, na Tair na Saidon nutu helefo li mago, bu mata kë mëta mëtëtabëya.Then Jesus came down with them and stood on a level place. A large crowd of His disciples was there, along with a great number of people from all over Judea, Jerusalem, and the seacoast of Tyre and Sidon.

18Bu këme loko mëtlelëtla, Jisasbë gali aholokwane namoglolame na bubë tëbo sle nalogotometëmeme. Na ahwane kë tëbo mototomebë onehome, sle totome.They had come to hear Him and to be healed of their diseases, and those troubled by unclean spirits were healed.

19Na iniwa oneho bume yafe lu mototla. Tako afutuku bu mëta tëgëbetleme nëgeme, na kë afutuku bume laslewa totome.The entire crowd was trying to touch Him, because power was coming from Him and healing them all.

20Jisas swaya tletëme na bubë lowene esogo mëglelëtlabë home hwi tlagume na këme gali tlome, “Sobo tëlewa wesibina enëne, kwe fleflesu egelome. Sobo Gotobë oneho etabetelo, na Goto bu some eso home tafa lëletëyo.Looking up at His disciples, Jesus said: “Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.

21Sobo fonoba kë tafa egelobë enëne, kwe fleflesu egelome. Tokwafe sobo hi wesibina memelë wesibina matahëna fe egelome. Sobo ye kë eglekefobë enëne, kwe fleflesu egelome. Tokwafe sobo soso egelome.Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be filled. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.

22Sobo bome, Gotobë life mago home, esogo eglenëname nëgeme, bu some tëboijiwa këme mëglëyome, na këme hehë mletëyome na këme klëi galina gali moglëyome na këme sobobë weniji sisile mogotometëyome. Oneho bu some këha melë mëgëtona, kwe sobo fleflesu egletemome.Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude you and insult you and reject your name as evil because of the Son of Man.

23Sobo fleflesu elome na tëtane ebome. Tokwafe, Goto some heven life mëta feilawa wesibi lëglëyome. Ëtani bubë bosemlenino, bu Gotobë lowene mago gali të mototokweflabë home mata melamototokwefëma.Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, because great is your reward in heaven. For their fathers treated the prophets in the same way.

24Kwe sobo feilawa balitina enëne. Sobo hai! Sobo, sobobë lale wesibi wafi glo elo na sobobë lale tafa wafi fa etlo. Sobo tokwafe naba lalawa egotome.But woe to you who are rich, for you have already received your comfort.

25Sobo hi wesibi mëta kë egemulubë na imo feilawa kë tëtafu egotomobë enëne. Sobo hai! Kwe tokwafe sobo fone egelome na naba lalawa etome. Sobo sosonawa kë egëtabobë enëne. Sobo hai! Tokwafe sobo ye egelome. Na naba lalawa etome.Woe to you who are well fed now, for you will hunger. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will mourn and weep.

26Na iniwa oneho some fleflesu mëgletëyona na bibita mëgëtona. Sobo hai! Ëtani bubë bosemlenino bu Gotobë lowene mago gali të mototokwefëmabë sosogëna enëneme kë fene melë lamototoma.”Woe to you when all men speak well of you, for their fathers treated the false prophets in the same way.

27Jisas ita gali tlome, “Sobo bobë gali kë aholokwane egletënabë enëneme gali nolëyo, some kë wame moglëyobë enëneme tole sle egletemome. Na ho some gëglë mëglelëyona, sobo bume tole sle egletemome na maninibo egletemome.But to those of you who will listen, I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,

28Fli ho some hana mëglëyona, sobo Gotome gali elëlome, bume lëgaitame nalëgleme na bume lale wesibi lëglëme nalëgleme. Some kë gëglë mëglelëyobë enëneme, Gotome gali elëlome, bume maninibo nalëgletëmeme.bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.

29Na ho jume ahino elë bu lëglena, kwe bu malële, ju bume kofaya asa tëke elole. Weye. Ju jelë ahino elë obwelë etatleme, bu jubë jelë ahino elë mata bu nalëgleme. Na ho jubë gelowa ëho li fa logotlena kwe fa malotle, na kwe li gelowa ëho mata elëleme.If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. And if someone takes your cloak, do not withhold your tunic as well.

30Ho fli jume wesibime takune mëglëyona, ju bume eglëmewa egleme. Na ho jubë wesibi fa logotlena, ita lëgleme asa takune elole.Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what is yours, do not demand it back.

31Iniwa wesibi sobo fenene tole eletemo, some melë lamëto, sobo kë wesibiwa bume melë egotomome.Do to others as you would have them do to you.

32Ho some kë tole mëgletëyobëme fwa tole egletemona, kwe ho sobobë lakaleme habëna lowene mëgletëyomene? Tëbo lakalena enëne mata bume kë tole mëgletëmabë enëneme, bu tole lamëletëma.If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them.

33Ho some kë mëgaitobë, sobo bume fwa egaitamona, kwe ho sobobë lakaleme habë lowene mëgletëyomene? Tëbo lakalena enëne mata, bume kë mëgaitamabë enëneme memaitama.If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do the same.

34Sobo melowene egelona, ‘Bu sebobë baliti seme kofayame lalowa mëglënamefe.’ Na sobo bume fwa baliti esokwaneme eglëmona, kwe ho sobobë lakaleme habëna lowene mëgletëyomene? Tëbo lowene enëne bu fli tëbo lowene enëneme baliti esokwaneme memelë melëma. Bu melowene mëgletëmame nëgeme, ‘Kofaya seme mata mëglënamefe.’And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full.

35Kwe sobo, sobobë wame home tole eletemome na lale lowenenawa yonane elelëmome. Sobo bume baliti elëmome, na melowene asa elo, ‘Bu seme tokwafe ita mëglëname.’ Weye. Sobo melë lalowa, kwe tokwafe sobo lale wesibi fa egotlome, na sobo tako kalëlegona Gotobë nëbale egëtabome. Gotome fleflesu jwa mëglekefëtlabë enëneme, na tëbo enëneme mata, Goto bume lalowa lëgaitameme.But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them, expecting nothing in return. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High; for He is kind to the ungrateful and wicked.

36Sobobë heven life mago blijaya, fli enëneme fene maninibo lëletëme, sobo mata melë maninibo egletemome.”Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

37“Sobo fli enënebë lakale asa hwi eletemo na megali asa elomo, ‘Bu tëbo enëne.’ Sobo melë egelona, kwe kofaya Goto mata sobobë lakale hwi sle lëgletëyome, na megali lëlëyome, ‘Sobo tëbo enëne.’ Sobo fli hobë tëbo lakale aholokwana ti egletemome na lowene asa elekefëtemo. Na Goto sobobë tëbo lakale mata aholokwana ti lëgletëyome na hana lowene lëglekefëtëmeme.Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.

38Sobo ho lime wesibi elëlome na Goto bu mata some kofayame wesibi lëlëyome. Bu some feilawa wesibimu lëglëyome. Bu wesibi ëfomemu kale lotomeme, owë mëkaketleme. Na some lëlëyome. Sobo wesibi home këniji elëmowe, kwe Goto mata some kënijiwa lëglëyome.”Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.”

39Jisas bume waflë galime gali tlome, “Naba titiki tabo ho, li naba titiki tabo home alëge lalowa lebotane lëgëtagutlemene? Weye. Bu melë mëgelona kwe bu iniwa fulujuwa mitigwëyome.Jesus also told them a parable: “Can a blind man lead a blind man? Will they not both fall into a pit?

40Tisa kë okokwe loglolebë nëba bubë tisabë lowene hana sigli lëtatleme. Kwe tokwafe bu tisabë lowene, lowene sle lëletlena, kwe bubë tisabë lowene fene lëbetle, bu këha melë lëgleme.A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone who is fully trained will be like his teacher.

41Ju hwetiki tokwëfo, blijahabë naba mëta kë egëbatlebë, fëyeme hwi elotlene na kwe jubë naba mëta tako ti bule tabo tako kë lëgëbetëbë, lowene jwa fëyeme eletlene?Why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye but fail to notice the beam in your own eye?

42Ju tako ti bule tabo tako jubë naba mëta kë lëgëbetëbë hwi hana eglolena kwe ju li afame habë gali eglolemene, ‘O afa, bo jubë naba hwetiki tokwëfo, lalowa tufiji nëgëtatëmene?’ Weye. Ju sosogëna ho. Tako ti bule tabo, jubë naba mëta kë lëgëbetëbë afina tufiji etokwakleme. Na tokwafe ju hwi sle ekakeme na tokwëfo hwetiki, blijahabë naba mëta kë egëbatlebë, mana lalowa tufiji egëtatleme.”How can you say, ‘Brother, let me take the speck out of your eye,’ while you yourself fail to see the beam in your own eye? You hypocrite! First take the beam out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

43Jisas ita waflë gali tle, “Lale ti, tëbo liji hana mogwalëme. Na kë fenene, tëbo ti mata, lale liji hana mogwalëme.No good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit.

44Ho bu ti liji afina hwi molola na weniji lowene mletla. Ho bu atowai liji, walëlëba ti mago hana tëtlë lëgleme na bu wain taba liji, ikiji taba mago hana tëtlë lëgleme.For each tree is known by its own fruit. Indeed, figs are not gathered from thornbushes, nor grapes from brambles.

45Lale ho bu feilawa lale lowene bubë lowene mëta lëbetle. Këme nëgeme bu lale lowenena këme tafa lële. Kwe tëbo ho bu feilawa tëbo lowene bubë lowene mëta lëbetle këme nëgeme bu tëbo lowenena këme tafa lële. Tëbo lowene bu mëta lëbetlena, kwe tëbo galime gali lële. Kwe lale lowene bu mëta lëbetlena, kwe lale galime gali lële.”The good man brings good things out of the good treasure of his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil treasure of his heart. For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks.

46“Sobo bome mefë fëyeme etanane, ‘Sebobë tako ho,’ kwe bobë gali esogo jwa fëyeme elelëtënane?Why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ but do not do what I say?

47Ho bu bo belë ligisina na bobë gali aholokwane lëglena na esogo lëglelëlena, bo këha hobë lowene some gali noglëyome.I will show you what he is like who comes to Me and hears My words and acts on them:

48Kë ho bu lale lo gliji lëglebë ho fenene. Bu life afina kakë yefi lële, na mësëbahiha ti këme lë lëtamë. Na lo kë matawa gliji lole. Na tokwafe haliji tu ligisina na kë lo yafe bëbë logotlena kwe bu hana fli logotleme, bu lale kalëlego lo gliji tëgleme nëgeme.He is like a man building a house, who dug down deep and laid his foundation on the rock. When the flood came, the torrent crashed against that house but could not shake it, because it was well built.

49Kwe ho bobë gali aholokwane lëglena na esogo hana lëglelëlena, bu tëbo lo gliji lëglebë ho fenene. Bu life hana yefi lëgleme na kalëlego jwa ti lë sle hana lëgëtame. Tokwafe haliji tu ligisina na kë lo bëbë logotlena kwe bu lafliwa lotleme na tëbo lëleme.”But the one who hears My words and does not act on them is like a man who built his house on ground without a foundation. The torrent crashed against that house, and immediately it fell—and great was its destruction!”
