Luke 15 (PDO) · Opened

1Ai aso olo, umboro toposima kaa mboꞌu orao mia ntehala menggena mondeeno hawe mperorongoi pompaguruNo i Yesu.Now all the tax collectors and sinners were gathering around to listen to Jesus.

2Masa mpoꞌamu-amu to Parisi kaa Guru Agama sumueꞌo kegagia laꞌa, rompotae, “Eii, Umono tumarimaꞌiro mia ntehala kaa monggaa merongangiro!”So the Pharisees and scribes began to grumble: “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.”

3Ooto kano i Yesu mompauꞌakero sirime nie,Then Jesus told them this parable:

4“Bano nio aso mia umbu ai olomiu nie mompeꞌue aso etu bimba, kanoꞌamba notoꞌorio tetadi aso bimbano laꞌa, mbiokee henu minggi nowowauo? Konggonokaa nobintango sio pulu kaa osio bimbano laꞌa ai konde meseko kano leko wusuꞌo bimba henu tetadi laꞌa hawe kano konaio.“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?

5Towono nohaweꞌo bimba henu tetadi laꞌa, umono mompemangaꞌu ka nosinggemalaꞌo bimba laꞌa kano waweo mekule ai lembarano.And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders,

6Haweno ai raha, nopeboio wali-walino kaa petengi-tengi rahano ka nopotae, ‘Maito kato memangaꞌu akono oto kuhaweꞌo bimbanggu henu tetadi!’comes home, and calls together his friends and neighbors to tell them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my lost sheep!’

7Kupauꞌakomiu, ‘Menggena ulaꞌato mboꞌu Ue Ala kaa lowono mia henu moꞌia ai suruga memangaꞌu ngako tempono romesueꞌo aso mia tehala henu tesisi, kaseko sio pulu kaa osio mia henu mentee tinuwuro henu romengkoꞌaraꞌara laro memparalu mentesisi.’ ”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.

8Kanoꞌamba i Yesu mompauꞌakero mboꞌu aso sirime. Nopotae, “Bano nio aso irowai henu mompeꞌue hopulo doi pera kaa tetadi aso mata doi, konggonokaa mosunu palita kano roahio laro rahano kanoꞌamba wusuꞌo takau aso doi perano henu tetadi laꞌa hawe kano haweꞌo.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?

9Towono nohaweꞌo doi perano laꞌa, nopeboio wali-walino kaa lowono petengi-tengi rahano kano potae, ‘Maito kato memangaꞌu akono oto kuhaweꞌo doi peranggu henu tetadi!’And when she finds it, she calls together her friends and neighbors to say, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my lost coin.’

10Iaku motaeꞌakomiu, ‘Menggena ulaꞌato mboꞌu malaꞌeka-malaꞌekaRo Ue Ala memangaꞌu akono aso mia tehala henu tesisi!’ ”In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of God’s angels over one sinner who repents.”

11I Yesu pauꞌakero mboꞌu sirime nie, “Nio aso uma mompeꞌue oruo ana ntama.Then Jesus said, “There was a man who had two sons.

12Nopotae ana poꞌohuo ndi umano, ‘Uma, poweeꞌakuto hilinie agaagando henu gagi tianggu.’ Gagi umano tumiaꞌo agaagaro ndi koꞌoruo anano.The younger son said to him, ‘Father, give me my share of the estate.’ So he divided his property between them.

13Bakoꞌopiono olo, ana poꞌohuo laꞌa umasaꞌo lowono agaaga tiano kanoꞌamba lumeko ai poꞌianga henu olai ngako. Lehea nosia-siaꞌo doino montonda manggerupa ineheno.After a few days, the younger son got everything together and journeyed to a distant country, where he squandered his wealth in wild living.

14Towono pinggoto doino, tegagi abalaa mokoninggoꞌa ai poꞌianga laꞌa ooto kano marasai tinuwuno.After he had spent all he had, a severe famine swept through that country, and he began to be in need.

15Gagi umono lumeko moꞌema anggaꞌa ndi aso ponggawa henu lehea. Mia laꞌa moweeꞌakeo anggaꞌa ooto mogagai boe ai lere.So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed the pigs.

16Mokoninggo ngako ana poꞌohuo laꞌa hawe-hawe nomokokumaango paka boe laꞌa kanggo lalau napo teꞌaso mia henu moweeꞌakeo kaanga.He longed to fill his belly with the pods the pigs were eating, but no one would give him a thing.

17Kanoꞌamba nopenonohoꞌo tinuwuno ka nopepau ai laro aroano, ‘Lowono mia henu moꞌangga ndi umanggu mentorea kangaaro, kanggo iaku endea minggi maate ako ninggo!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!

18Laluombo kupekule ndi umanggu ka motaeꞌakeo, Uma, akuto tehala ndi Ue Ala kaa ndi ikomiu.I will get up and go back to my father and say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you.

19Andono kono iaku nie ninee anamiu. Uma, poꞌinengangguto gagi mia sinaromiu.’I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants.”’

20Gagi umono mewungguako mekule ndi umano. Da olai oto nosueꞌo umano ana poꞌohuono laꞌa oto kano telelu aroa pompehohawano. Melulu umano tumowoꞌo ana poꞌohuono laꞌa kano rakoꞌo ka umikiꞌo.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.

21Nopotae ana poꞌohuo laꞌa ndi umano, ‘Uma, akuto tehala ndi Ue Ala kaa ndi ikomiu. Andono kono iaku nie ninee anamiu.’The son declared, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’

22Kanggo umano motaeꞌakero atano, ‘Pongkado mai waweeo parewa henu moiko, kaa pokonoꞌakeo sisi ai tongisono, kaa sapatu ai kareno.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.

23Kaa aleoto ana sapi henu monuwo, sampaꞌo ka nahuakito kato mponggaa kaa memangaꞌu!Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let us feast and celebrate.

24Akono ananggu menggena oto maate, kanggo hilinie tuwu euno, umono menggena oto tetadi kanggo hilinie hinawe euno.’ Gagi pompamula iroto pomposara.For this son of mine was dead and is alive again! He was lost and is found!’ So they began to celebrate.

25Tempono posaraꞌa laꞌa tegagi, amba anano tekonai ai lere. Towono nopekule kaa oto umbeda ai rahano, norongoio maroa mia mpenani kaa mpenari.Meanwhile the older son was in the field, and as he approached the house, he heard music and dancing.

26Kano peboio aso ata kaa mesikeno ndi umono, ‘Pombio mia kano memaroa ai raha?’So he called one of the servants and asked what was going on.

27Sumangki ata laꞌa, ‘Haemiu oto mekule gagi umamiu mosampaꞌakeo ana sapi henu monuwo akono oto nohaweꞌo anano da tuwu moroso.’‘Your brother has returned,’ he said, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has him back safe and sound.’

28Gagi tekudato amba ana laꞌa ka lano behe mendamo ai raha. Oto kano peluarako umano umoꞌahitio kano pendamo.The older son became angry and refused to go in. So his father came out and pleaded with him.

29Nopotae ndi umano, ‘Oto mataꞌu-taꞌu kupoꞌangga tiamiu ka laku huru umewa komiu, kanggo lai huru moweeꞌakune aso ana bembe kakupowowau posaraꞌa saru wali-walinggu.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.

30Kanggo anamiu laꞌa oto nopinggoꞌo agaagamiu, noleko mebawaa saru bandara, kanggo dapono hawe ikomiu mosampaꞌakeo aso ana sapi henu monuwo!’But when this son of yours returns from squandering your wealth with prostitutes, you kill the fattened calf for him!’

31Nopotae umano ndi anano henu amba-ambano, ‘Ananggu, iikokaa mpihe meronga iaku, kaa lowono agaaganggu oto agaagamu mboꞌu.‘Son, you are always with me,’ the father said, ‘and all that is mine is yours.

32Kanggo haemu laꞌa menggena oto maate, kanggo hilinie tuwu euno, umono menggena oto tetadi kanggo hilinie hinawe euno. Gagi paralu ikito mpowowau posaraꞌa kaa memangaꞌu.’ ”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.’”
