Luke 15 (WLO) · Opened

1Abhari moenena balasitee tee mia mokodosana kananeana moumbana i Isa to arangoaka kaadharina.Now all the tax collectors and sinners were gathering around to listen to Jesus.

2Manga mia minaaka i rombongana Farisi tee manga ahalii Hukumu Taurati apepuumo aposakamuntu-muntu, "Mia incia sii atarima manga mia mokodosana, tee moomini akande apobhawa tee manga incia."So the Pharisees and scribes began to grumble: “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.”

3Roonamo itu Isa apakawaaka saangu ibarati i manga incia.Then Jesus told them this parable:

4Apogaumo, "Ande i tanga-tangamiu dhaangia samia mokodumbana saatu mbaa kasiimpo sambaa i tanga-tangana dumba sumai akailanga, tantumo incia abholia sio pulu sio mbaana sumai i tana mokorumpuna, kasiimpomo alingkamo apeelo sambaana mokailangana sumai sampe apokawaakea.“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?

5Tee ande incia apotibhaakea pendua dumba sumai, incia aunde mpuu kasiimpo asodhamea dumba sumai i awaana,And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders,

6Sakawana i bhanua, incia bheakembamo manga sabhangkana tee manga sarimbanuana tee apogau, 'Maimo takaunde-undeaka tee iaku roonamo kupotibhaakamea dumbaku mokailangana!'comes home, and calls together his friends and neighbors to tell them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my lost sheep!’

7Kupogau tee ingkomiu, mboo sumai uka manga momboorena i sorogaa bheakaunde-undemo mpuu roonamo samia mokodosana atobamo tee siopulu sio mia mototuuna inda afaraluu atoba."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.

8Atawa ande dhaangia samia bhawine mokosapulu tibhana doi pera, kasiimpo satibhana amambuu, opea ipewauna? Incia bheaparore sulu tee aposambure i bhanuana tee apeeloa sampe apotibhaakea doi sumai.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?

9Sapokawaakana doi incia sumai, incia bheakembamo manga sabhangkana tee manga sarimbanuana tee apogau kooni, 'Maimo ingkomiu takaunde-undeaka tee iaku, roonamo kupokawaakamea pendua doiku momambuuna!'And when she finds it, she calls together her friends and neighbors to say, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my lost coin.’

10Kupogau tee ingkomiu, mboo sumai uka akaunde-undemo mpuu manga malaaʼekatina Aulataʼala roonamo samia mokodosana atobamo."In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of God’s angels over one sinner who repents.”

11Isa apogaumo pendua, "Dhaangia samia uma o anana rua mia podho umane.Then Jesus said, “There was a man who had two sons.

12O anana kaepu sumai apogaumo i amana kooni, 'Uma, dhawuakupo tinauraka momembalina dhawuku.' Kasiimpomo amana adhawuakamea harataana to rua-rua miaia anana sumai.The younger son said to him, ‘Father, give me my share of the estate.’ So he divided his property between them.

13Pia-pia eo kasiimpomo anana kaepuna sumai aasomo tinauraka dhawuna sumai kasiimpo alingka i lipu momaridho. Iwe sumai incia apepadhaia tee aawu-awua doina tee asabaraaka to kasanaana dunia sii.After a few days, the younger son got everything together and journeyed to a distant country, where he squandered his wealth in wild living.

14Samapupuna doina sumai, dhaangiamo i lipu sumai kaara momaoge, sanampuu incia apepuumo anamisi akakurangamo.After he had spent all he had, a severe famine swept through that country, and he began to be in need.

15Kasiimpomo incia alingkamo akarajaa i sala samia minaaka i lipu sumai motumpuna incia ajagani manga bhawuna i inawu.So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed the pigs.

16Incia gauna mpuu bheaantoki kompona tee lawue momembalina kinandena manga bhawu sumai, maka inda dhaangia samia uka modhawuakea.He longed to fill his belly with the pods the pigs were eating, but no one would give him a thing.

17Sapadhana asadaria kadhaangiana, incia apogaumo, 'Manga mia iponambona amaku manga kinandena akolabhi-labhi, tee iaku iwe sii satanga mateaka kaara!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!

18Iaku bhekulingka tee kumbuli i amaku, tee kupogau tee incia, 'Uma, iaku kukodosamo i Aulataʼala tee Uma.I will get up and go back to my father and say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you.

19Iaku indamo alaenga usarongiaku anamu Uma. Abhiaku o mia iponambona Uma!'I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants.”’

20Sanampuu incia ambulimo i amana. Dhaangia maridho minaaka i bhanua, amana padhamo akamatea. Tee amaasi mpuu incana amana abuntuli apokawaakea, kasiimpo asakua tee aikia.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.

21Anaana sumai apogaumo tee incia, 'Uma, iaku kukodosamo i Aulataʼala tee uka i Uma. Iaku indamo alaenga usarongiakaaku anamu Uma.'The son declared, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’

22Maka amana akembamo manga bhatuana tee apogau, 'Madhei! Alamo pakea momangadana mpuu tee pakeakea to incia. Pakanaakea singkaru i kauna limana, tee sandali i aena.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.

23Alamo anana sapi momalompona tee usumbelea. Maimo takandeaka tee takaunde-unde,Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let us feast and celebrate.

24roonamo anaku sii i piamo itu amatemo maka sii-sii adhadhimo pendua, incia i piamo itu amambuu maka sii-sii apotibhaakamea pendua.' Kasiimpo apepuumo manga incia akaunde-unde.For this son of mine was dead and is alive again! He was lost and is found!’ So they began to celebrate.

25Tangasaana itu, o anana tumpena dhaangia i inawu. Wakutuuna ambuli tee akawa i saripina bhanua, incia arangomo lagu-lagu tee mia motari-tariana.Meanwhile the older son was in the field, and as he approached the house, he heard music and dancing.

26Kasiimpomo incia akembamo sala samia bhatuana tee aabha kooni, 'Dhaangia tee opea i bhanua?'So he called one of the servants and asked what was going on.

27Alawanimo bhatuana sumai kooni, 'Andimu ambulimo tee amamu padhamo manga tumpu tasumbele anana sapi momalompona roonamo incia apotibhaakamea pendua anana tee asalaamati!'‘Your brother has returned,’ he said, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has him back safe and sound.’

28Aʼamaramo mpuu o anana tumpena sumai tee amendeu apesua i bhanua. Kasiimpomo amana alimba to awujua.The older son became angry and refused to go in. So his father came out and pleaded with him.

29Maka apogaumo o anana, 'Uma, udhania. Akotao-taomo kangengena iaku kukarajaa mpuu-mpuuna to Uma tee indapo mina inda kuose parintamu. Sainamo mboo sumai indapo mina udhawuakaaku moomini sambaa anana bhembe mamudhaakana kukaunde-unde tee manga sabhangkaku.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.

30Maka sii-sii, saumbana anamu mopepadhaina tinaurakana Uma tee manga bhawine pasunda, usumbeleakea anana sapi momalompona to incia.'But when this son of yours returns from squandering your wealth with prostitutes, you kill the fattened calf for him!’

31Kasiimpomo o amana apogau kooni, 'E anaku, ingkoo sadiamo upobhawa-bhawa tee iaku. Bhari-bharia pewauaku pewauamumo uka.‘Son, you are always with me,’ the father said, ‘and all that is mine is yours.

32Ingkita afaraluu mpuu takaunde-unde roonamo andimu sumai amatemo, maka sii-sii adhadhimo pendua, incia i piamo itu amambuu maka sii-sii atopotibhaakamo pendua.'"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.’”
