Luke 12 (ROW) · Opened

1Leleꞌ naa, hambu atahori rifon hira rema rae rena Yesus. Ara laoꞌ rakaseseti ma heo rala E. Boe ma Ana olaꞌ naꞌahuluꞌ no ana dedꞌenu nara nae, “Minea ao mara fo afiꞌ tunga atahori Farisi ra mana dꞌea-rala nara. Huu ara hiiꞌ a olaꞌ laen, ma tao laen.In the meantime, a crowd of many thousands had gathered, so that they were trampling one another. Jesus began to speak first to His disciples: “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

2Ara tao ao nara onaꞌ atahori maloleꞌ, te dei fo sira mana dꞌea-rala nara nenenitaꞌ. Huu basa mana neꞌefuniꞌ aleꞌ ia, dei fo nenenitaꞌ.There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, and nothing hidden that will not be made known.

3Saa fo hei olaꞌ funi-funiꞌ leleꞌ ia, dei fo atahori rena relo-relo. Saa fo hei utu-utu sia kama rala o, dei fo atahori olaꞌ rahereꞌ sia atahori hetar matan.”What you have spoken in the dark will be heard in the daylight, and what you have whispered in the inner rooms will be proclaimed from the housetops.

4Yesus olaꞌ seluꞌ nae, Ana nggare! Afiꞌ mimitau mete ma atahori rae tao risa nggi. Huu ara bisa risaꞌ a hei ao-sisim, te nda bisa tao saa-saa mbali samanam sa boe.I tell you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more.

5Au ae ufadꞌe ae, hei musi mimitau seka. Hei musi mimitau Lamatualain. Huu Eni bisa tao nisa nggi, ma mbia nggi misiꞌ naraka rala mii. De Eni ia, fo hei musi mimitau tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ.But I will show you whom you should fear: Fear the One who, after you have been killed, has authority to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear Him!

6Ama duꞌa sobꞌa, mbui lutuk felin baꞌu saa? Nda mafelit sa, to?! Mbuiꞌ lima na sen rua, to? Mae taꞌo naa o Lamatualain nda liliiꞌ hela esa sa boe.Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God.

7Onaꞌ naa boe, Lamatuaꞌ taomataꞌ neu nggi. Ana nahine tebꞌe langga fuluꞌ hira sia langga mara. Dadꞌi ama afiꞌ, mimitau, huu Lamatuaꞌ nile hei lenaꞌ mbui lutuk hetar naa ra.”And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So do not be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

8Basa ma, Yesus olaꞌ fai no Ana dedꞌenun nae, “Pasa ndiki mara malolole! Mete ma hambu atahori nambarani nataa Au sia atahori hetar matan sia raefafoꞌ ia, dei fo Au o utaa e sia Lamatualain ana dedenu nara matan sia sorga ae, eni, Au atahori ngga.I tell you, everyone who confesses Me before men, the Son of Man will also confess him before the angels of God.

9Te mete ma hambu atahori olaꞌ sia atahori matan nae, eni nda nahine Au sa, dei fo Au o, olaꞌ sia Lamatualain ate nara matan sia sorga ae, Au o nda uhine e sa boe.But whoever denies Me before men will be denied before the angels of God.

10Au ia, Atahori Matetuꞌ a. Mete ma hambu atahori olaꞌ tao maꞌafo Nara malole ngga, na, Lamatualain feꞌe nau fee ambon neu salan. Te mete ma ana olaꞌ tao maꞌafo Lamatuaꞌ Dula-dꞌale Meumaren nara malolen, Lamatualain nda fee ambon neu salan sa.And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.

11Mete ma atahori ro nggi misiꞌ mamana neꞌetuꞌ dedꞌea-oꞌolaꞌ agama, fo, misiꞌ atahori mana toꞌu parenda ra, huu hei mimihere Au, na afiꞌ mimitau soꞌal hei mae misilaꞌe ao mara taꞌo bee.When you are brought before synagogues, rulers, and authorities, do not worry about how to defend yourselves or what to say.

12Huu leleꞌ naa o, Lamatualain Dula-dꞌale Meumaren nanori nggi dedꞌea-oꞌolaꞌ nandaa no saa, fo hei parlu mitaa neu se.”For at that time the Holy Spirit will teach you what you should say.”

13Basa naa ma, esa mia atahori hetar naa ra natane Yesus nae, “Ama Meser! Tulun denu aꞌa ngga fo bꞌanggi no au hai amam hata-heton dei.”Someone in the crowd said to Him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.”

14Te Yesus nataa e nae, “Wah! Seka mana soꞌu Au dadꞌi mana maꞌetu hei ruꞌa nggi dedꞌeꞌat ma mataꞌ naa?”But Jesus replied, “Man, who appointed Me judge or executor between you?”

15Basa ma Yesus olaꞌ neu atahori hetar naa ra nae, “Hei musi besa-bꞌesa fo afiꞌ misuu-miseti. Huu hata-hetoꞌ naeꞌ nda bisa tao nggi misodꞌa no mole-dꞌame sa.”And He said to them, “Watch out! Guard yourselves against every form of greed, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.”

16Boe ma, Ana dui nekendandaaꞌ sa nae, “Hambu atahori mamasuꞌiꞌ sa, osin hambu buna-bꞌoaꞌ naen seli.Then He told them a parable: “The ground of a certain rich man produced an abundance.

17Losa nggudꞌan nara sofe nenedidinaꞌ, de nda nitaꞌ nae tao taꞌo bee sa boe.So he thought to himself, ‘What shall I do, since I have nowhere to store my crops?’

18De ana duꞌa nae, ‘Au ae tao taꞌoꞌ a ia! Au ofe hendi nggudꞌan mbaraaꞌ a, fo tao uꞌumoko e, fo au mbedꞌaꞌ osi ngga buna-bꞌoa nara ma basa hata-heto nggara sia naa.Then he said, ‘This is what I will do: I will tear down my barns and will build bigger ones, and there I will store up all my grain and my goods.

19Mete ma taꞌo naa ena, na au olaꞌ mbali ao ngga ae, ‘We! nggudꞌan sofe ena! Nanaat dai ua losa too-too ena. De mua-minu malaladꞌa ma mumuhoꞌo pepedꞌos ei ma leo!”Then I will say to myself, “You have plenty of good things laid up for many years. Take it easy. Eat, drink, and be merry!”’

20Te huu Lamatualain nafadꞌe neu e nae, ‘Woi! Nggoa ma, dei! Tetembaꞌ ia boe, mate nggo. Naa, seka mana hambu basa nggudꞌan ma isi-oen?’But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life will be required of you. Then who will own what you have accumulated?’

21Dadꞌi taꞌo ia! Atahori bisa raꞌadꞌuru hata-hetoꞌ nae-nae sia raefafoꞌ ia soaꞌ neu aon, huu sia Lamatualain dudꞌuꞌan, eni, hata-taaꞌ, huu nda maloleꞌ no Lamatuaꞌ sa.”This is how it will be for anyone who stores up treasure for himself but is not rich toward God.”

22Basa ma Yesus nanori seluꞌ ana dedenu nara nae, “Ama afiꞌ mbute-mue mo masodꞌa mara fai-fai esa, soꞌal mae mia saa do pake saa.Then Jesus said to His disciples, “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat, or about your body, what you will wear.

23Huu hita masodꞌan ia, lenaꞌ mia saa fo hita taaꞌ a, ma saa fo hita pakeꞌ a.For life is more than food, and the body more than clothes.

24Mete sobꞌa mbui kaaꞌ ra! Ara nda sela sa, nda etu-oru sa, nda raꞌena nggudꞌan fo mbedꞌaꞌ nanaat sa, te Lamatualain naꞌabꞌoi se. Mete ma taꞌo naa, na, Ana o bisa naꞌabꞌoi nggi boe. Huu Ana nile hei lenaꞌ mbuiꞌ naa ra.Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storehouse or barn; yet God feeds them. How much more valuable you are than the birds!

25Mete ma atahori rambariiꞌ sia tiroao a matan, fo barias aon, na, ana bisa tao namadꞌoo fula-fai masodꞌan, do? Hokoꞌ!Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?

26Dadꞌi mete ma soaꞌ a mbute-mue mo dꞌala anak naa ra, nda nendi fee nggo saa sa boe, na, saa de hei feꞌe mae mbute-mue mo dꞌala monaeꞌ ra fai? Naa, onton na saa?So if you cannot do such a small thing, why do you worry about the rest?

27Mete sobꞌa bꞌuna lasi ra. Ara nda tao osi-lutu sa, ma nda tenu-lolo sa. Te mane Soleman bꞌua-baꞌu meulaun o, nda maloleꞌ lenaꞌ buna lasi a meulaun sa.Consider how the lilies grow: They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his glory was adorned like one of these.

28Huu Lamatualain naꞌaboi uru anaꞌ fo nda naꞌena sosoaꞌ sa, mana nasodꞌa faiꞌ ia, ma mbilaꞌ neu na mate, fo atahori nggari nisiꞌ ai rala. Mete ma taꞌo naa, na, Ana o bisa naꞌaboi hei fo mana mafeliꞌ lenaꞌ uru anaꞌ. Dadꞌi, taꞌo bee de hei nda mimihena tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ neu E sa?If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, how much more will He clothe you, O you of little faith!

29Onaꞌ naa boe, hei sudꞌi dudꞌuꞌa dꞌala nanaa-nininuꞌ fai. Te dei fo Lamatuaꞌ mana ator.And do not be concerned about what you will eat or drink. Do not worry about it.

30Atahori nda mana namahena neu Lamatuaꞌ sa, ara ue-tao ritaꞌ mamate nara tao basa dalaꞌ naa ra. Te ama afiꞌ taꞌo naa, huu hei Amam sia sorga nahine basa saa fo hei parluꞌ ra ena.For the Gentiles of the world strive after all these things, and your Father knows that you need them.

31Mete ma hei milalao Lamatualain ue-tataos nara raꞌahuluꞌ, na, dei fo Ana o fee ia ra neu hei boe.”But seek His kingdom, and these things will be added unto you.

32Basa ma Yesus ola seluꞌ nae, “Hei onaꞌ bibꞌi lombo nononggo anaꞌ sa nda beꞌi saa sa boe. Te afiꞌ mimitau! Huu Ama ma sia sorga, Mane Monaeꞌ. Saa fo Eni enan, Ana namahoꞌo fee neu ana susue nara.Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father is pleased to give you the kingdom.

33Dadꞌi mii seo hendi sudꞌiꞌ a saa mara, basa na babꞌanggi doi nara fee neu atahori mana toꞌa-taaꞌ ra. No taꞌo naa hei mbedꞌaꞌ suꞌit sia sorga. Naꞌo ra nda reu ramanaꞌo rala se sa, ma mbaꞌi ra o nda raꞌaninisi ralutu hendi se sa.Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide yourselves with purses that will not wear out, an inexhaustible treasure in heaven, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys.

34Misinedꞌa malolole! Hei hata-heto mara sia bee na, rala mara o sia naa boe.”For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

35Yesus olaꞌ seluꞌ fai nae, “Hei musi mihehere fo ue-tao fee Lamatuaꞌ hatuꞌ-rerelon. Onaꞌ ana dedenuꞌ mana beꞌe nahani tenu umeꞌ a baliꞌ ume nema mia fefeta kakabꞌiꞌ. Mete ma malangga dedꞌeu lelesu a, na, ana bisa soi lai-lai.Be dressed for service and keep your lamps burning.

37Mete ma malangga nema hambu atahori mana tao ues nara rahani taꞌo naa, na ara onton. Huu dei fo malangga natudꞌu rala malolen neu se. Ana pake bua-baꞌus onaꞌ atahori mana tao ues nara, fo neu nahao se nanaa maladꞌaꞌ.Blessed are those servants whom the master finds on watch when he returns. Truly I tell you, he will dress himself to serve and will have them recline at the table, and he himself will come and wait on them.

38Atahori mana tao-ues ra memaꞌ onton huu ara tao-mataꞌ neu malangga no malole. Mae malangga sudꞌiꞌ a nema faiꞌ baꞌu saa, neofaꞌ do deka manggarelo o, ara rahehere rakandooꞌ a.Even if he comes in the second or third watch of the night and finds them alert, those servants will be blessed.

39Dꞌuꞌa malolole! Mete ma hambu tenu umeꞌ nahine tebꞌe faiꞌ baꞌu saa naꞌo ra rae rema, neꞌo ana nda fee kakaꞌe fo naꞌo ra bonggar umen sa.But understand this: If the homeowner had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into.

40Dadꞌi hei musi mihehere mikindooꞌ a, huu nda hambu atahori rahine tebꞌe fai hiraꞌ Atahori Matetuꞌ a nae nema sa.”You also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour you do not expect.”

41Basa ma, Petrus natane Yesus nae, “Ama Meser! Amaꞌ nekendandaan faaꞌ ra naa, dai akaꞌ hai, do dai basa atahori?”“Lord,” said Peter, “are You addressing this parable to us, or to everyone else as well?”

42Ma Yesus nataa nae, “Nekendandaaꞌ naa dai basa atahori mana tao onaꞌ malangga mana tao-ues mahineꞌ a, mana naꞌtataaꞌ no malanggan. Dei fo malanggan soꞌu e fo babꞌanggi nanaat fee atahori mana tao-ues laen ra. Mete ma ana manggate tao tungga ue-tataon taꞌo naa, mae malanggan nema sudꞌiꞌ a fain sa o, ana tao-taoꞌ a ue-tataon no tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ. De ana onton, huu dei fo malanggan soꞌu e fo mete-seꞌu basa hata-heto nara.And the Lord answered, “Who then is the faithful and wise manager, whom the master puts in charge of his servants to give them their portion at the proper time?

45Te soe neu e mete ma malangga mana tao-ues dudꞌuꞌa nae, ‘Eh! Neꞌo toulasiꞌ a feꞌe doo fo ana nema.’ Boe ma ana poko-paru atahori mana tao-ues laen ra, touꞌ ma inaꞌ ra. Boe ma ana endoꞌ naa-ninu maꞌahee losa mafu.But suppose that servant says in his heart, ‘My master will be a long time in coming,’ and he begins to beat the menservants and maidservants, and to eat and drink and get drunk.

46Te faiꞌ sa ma, leleꞌ malangga mana tao-ues a nda medꞌa nala sa, aiboiꞌ ma malangga a baliꞌ. Leleꞌ malangga bubꞌulu dalaꞌ naa ra, ma ana poko-paru e tuteꞌ a, de oi hendi e, fo hambu nala bala-bꞌaen onaꞌ atahori nda mana raꞌatataaꞌ tungga malangga hihii-nanaun sa.The master of that servant will come on a day he does not expect and at an hour he does not anticipate. Then he will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the unbelievers.

47Huu atahori mana tao-ues mana nahine malangga hihii-nanaun, te nda nahehere tao tungga sa, do, nda nau tao tungga sa, dei fo nenehuku-dokiꞌ bꞌeran seli.That servant who knows his master’s will but does not get ready or follow his instructions will be beaten with many blows.

48Te atahori mana tao ues mana ue-tao leli huu nda nahine malangga hihii-nanaun sa, dei fo hambu huku-dokiꞌ nggafat. Atahori mana simbo naen seli, eni babꞌala-babaen o naeꞌ boe. Atahori mana simbo ue-tataos monaeꞌ, lemba-nesaan o naeꞌ boe.”But the one who unknowingly does things worthy of punishment will be beaten with few blows. From everyone who has been given much, much will be required; and from him who has been entrusted with much, even more will be demanded.

49Yesus tute oꞌolan nae, “Au uma fo saranggaa hendi atahori nggara mia atahori laen ra sia raefafoꞌ ia. Naa, onaꞌ atahori hotu manggarauꞌ rendiꞌ ai mbilaꞌ. Au hihii ngga ai a mulai mbila sia bee-bꞌee ena.I have come to ignite a fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!

50Te huu Au musi lemba-dꞌoi uꞌuhuluꞌ doidꞌosoꞌ manaseliꞌ dei, naa fo tebꞌe-tebꞌeꞌ Au doidꞌoso losa ue-tatao Ngga basa.But I have a baptism to undergo, and how distressed I am until it is accomplished!

51Hei duꞌa mae Au uma endi mole-dꞌameꞌ nisiꞌ raefafoꞌ ia, do? Hokoꞌ! Au uma tao atahori ra ratofa rasimboꞌ bafaꞌ, ma tao fee atahori ra sea-saranggaa huu nenori Ngga.Do you think that I have come to bring peace to the earth? No, I tell you, but division.

52Mia leleꞌ ia odꞌi-aꞌa toronoo bꞌonggiꞌ ra o sea-saranggaa. Sia ume sa, telu labꞌan rua, do rua labꞌan telu.From now on, five in one household will be divided, three against two and two against three.

53Ama bonggiꞌ labꞌan ana bonggiꞌ; ana bonggiꞌ labꞌan ama bonggiꞌ. Ina bonggiꞌ labꞌan ana bonggiꞌ; ana bonggiꞌ labꞌan ina bonggiꞌ. Ina ariꞌ labꞌan ana arin; ana ariꞌ labꞌan ina arin.”They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.”

54Boe ma Yesus olaꞌ no atahori hetar naa ra nae, “Mete ma hei mita lelee fauꞌ sou sia muri, hei mae, ‘ia, nenendin udꞌan nae nema ena.’ Memaꞌ tebꞌe taꞌo naa.Then Jesus said to the crowds, “As soon as you see a cloud rising in the west, you say, ‘A shower is coming,’ and that is what happens.

55Mete ma ani onas fuu nema, hei mae, ‘ia, nenendin faiꞌ ia matobꞌiꞌ seli.’ Memaꞌ tebꞌe taꞌo naa.And when the south wind blows, you say, ‘It will be hot,’ and it is.

56Woi! Hei atahori mana dꞌea-ralaꞌ mana olaꞌ laen na tao laen re! Hei miꞌindandaaꞌ mihine fula-fai tungga lalai no raefafoꞌ ia nenendin. Te taꞌo bee de hei nda nau mihine Lamatualain hihii-nanaun leleꞌ ia sa?”You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and sky. Why don’t you know how to interpret the present time?

57Yesus olaꞌ seluꞌ nae, “Mete ma hei midꞌedꞌea na, taꞌo bee de hei nda miꞌetuꞌ aom mae bee tebꞌe sa! Malole lenaꞌ dꞌame dei! Afiꞌ losa hei losa mana nggero-furiꞌ a matan, ma ana naꞌetuꞌ tao nggi bui rala mii.And why don’t you judge for yourselves what is right?

59Huu mete ma taꞌo naa, neꞌo hei nda bisa dea mii sa losa bꞌae mibasaꞌ huta-bukuꞌ fo mana nggero a naꞌetu basaꞌ a.”I tell you, you will not get out until you have paid the very last penny.”
