Luke 16 (WLO) · Opened

1Isa apogaumo i manga murina, "Dhaangia samia morangkaeana tee dhaangia samia pagawe momatauna doina to moʼurusuna karangkaeana. O mia morangkaea sumai arango molaporona kooni, pagawe momatauna doina aawu-awua.Jesus also said to His disciples, “There was a rich man whose manager was accused of wasting his possessions.

2Kasiimpomo incia akembamo pagawena sumai tee apogau kooni, 'Opea sii irangoku to ingkoo? Sii-sii, pasarakaaka i iaku boku laporoamu wakutuu uʼurusu karangkaeaku. Ingkoo indamo amembali uka ukarajaa uʼurusu doiku!'So he called him in to ask, ‘What is this I hear about you? Turn in an account of your management, for you cannot be manager any longer.’

3Pagawe momatauna doina sumai afikirimo i nuncana ngangarandana, 'Opuku bheapauntoaku minaaka i karajaaku momatauna doina. Opea to ipewauku? Iaku inda membali kubhingkuni, tee kumaea ande kumembali mia mokaema-emani.The manager said to himself, ‘What shall I do, now that my master is taking away my position? I am too weak to dig and too ashamed to beg.

4Iaku dhaangia tee akalaku mamudhaakana sapadhana apauntoaku, dhaangia manga mia bheapamboore iaku i bhanuana manga!'I know what I will do so that after my removal from management, people will welcome me into their homes.’

5Kasiimpomo akembamo samia-samia manga mia mokodhosana i opuna. Aabhakimo i mia bhaa-bhaana kooni, 'Saopea dhosamu i opuku?'And he called in each one of his master’s debtors. ‘How much do you owe my master?’ he asked the first.

6Alawanimo mia sumai, 'Saatu doromu mina zaitun.' Pagawena sumai apogaumo tee incia kooni, 'Sii surana dhosamu. Uncuramo tee uburimea sii-sii uka: lima pulu doromu.'‘A hundred measures of olive oil,’ he answered. ‘Take your bill,’ said the manager, ‘sit down quickly, and write fifty.’

7Kasiimpo incia aabhaki i mia mokodhosana nomoro rua, 'Tee witinai, saopea dhosamu?' Alawanimo mia sumai, 'Sarewu kadhu gandum.' Pagawe momatauna doi sumai apogaumo tee incia kooni, 'Sii surana dhosamu. Buria: waluatu kadhu.'Then he asked another, ‘And how much do you owe?’ ‘A hundred measures of wheat,’ he replied. ‘Take your bill and write eighty,’ he told him.

8Kasiimpomo opuna sumai apujimo pagawena inda mojujuruna sumai, roonamo incia akoʼakala. Roonamo manga miana dunia sii akolabhi akalana aʼurusu manga sabhangkana tee manga mia modhadhina i nuncana kainawa."The master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly. For the sons of this age are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the sons of light.

9Isa apogaumo tee manga incia, "Iaku kupogau tee ingkomiu, pakea harataana dunia to upotibhaaka manga sabhangka to karomiu, mamudhaakana ande harataa sumai apepadhaia, manga incia bheatarimakomiu i mbooreesa saʼumurua."I tell you, use worldly wealth to make friends for yourselves so that when it is gone, they will welcome you into eternal dwellings.

10"Incema-incema momembalina atoparacaea tee manga giu momaidhiidhina, bheatoparacaea uka tee manga giu momaogena. Tee manga incema inda atotuu tee manga giu momaidhiidhina, incia inda bheatotuu uka tee manga giu momaogena.Whoever is faithful with very little will also be faithful with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.

11Jadi, ande ingkomiu inda amembali utoparacaea i nuncana giu uʼurusu harataana dunia, tuaapa amembali utoparacaea to uʼurusu harataana mototuuna?So if you have not been faithful with worldly wealth, who will entrust you with true riches?

12Ande ingkomiu inda amembali utoparacaea to uʼurusu pewauana mia mosagaanana, incema buaka bhemodhawuakakomiu o giu to amembali pewauamiu?And if you have not been faithful with the belongings of another, who will give you belongings of your own?

13Inda dhaangia samia bhatua bhanua amembali akarajaa to rua mia bosuna roonamo ande mboo sumai, incia bheamarikaia sala samia tee bheamaasiaka samia mosagaanana minaaka i rua mia bosuna sumai, atawa incia bheampuu-mpuu sala samia minaaka i rua mia bosuna tee inda apisimaogea mosagaanana. Mboomo itu uka, ingkomiu inda amembali ulaiania Aulataʼala tee uka harataana dunia sii."No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.”

14Wakutuuna manga mia minaaka i rombongana Farisi mopeeluna doi arango bhari-bharia ipogauakana Isa, apotawaikimea manga.The Pharisees, who were lovers of money, heard all of this and were scoffing at Jesus.

15Maka Isa apogaumo i manga incia kooni, "Ingkomiumo samia mopewauna kabilanga atotuu i aroana manga mia, maka Aulataʼala amataua opea modhaangiana i nuncana ngangarandamiu. Roonamo manga giu iabhina amalanga to maanusia, abancia Aulataʼala."So He said to them, “You are the ones who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. For what is prized among men is detestable before God.

16Hukumu Taurati tee Kitabi Momangkilona manga nabii dhaangiapo atopake sampe zamanina Nabii Yahya. Pepuuna minaaka i umbaana Nabii Yahya, Lele Malape to Pamarintana Aulataʼala apakolelea iapai-iapai tee manga mia bhari-bharia aʼusaha to apesua i nuncana.The Law and the Prophets were proclaimed until John. Since that time, the gospel of the kingdom of God is being preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.

17Maka amamudha to laiana tee alamu sii abinasa tee sahorofu i nuncana Hukumu Taurati inda asidha.But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for a single stroke of a pen to drop out of the Law.

18Incema-incema mobhotukina bhawinena kasiimpomo akawi tee bhawine mosagaanana, o mia incia sumai apewau zinaa. Tee mboo sumai uka mia mokawina tee bhawine ibhotukina umanena, apewau zinaa uka."Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and he who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.

19Isa aadhariaka saangu ibarati. "Dhaangia samia morangkaeana. Incia sadia apake juba wungu tonde tee pakeana posamaali, tee dhadhina ataralabhi-labhi saeo-saeo.Now there was a rich man dressed in purple and fine linen, who lived each day in joyous splendor.

20I matana bhambana apadholea samia momisikinina sarona Lazarus. Badana abukeaka kumbi-kumbi.And a beggar named Lazarus lay at his gate, covered with sores

21Incia gauna aantoki kompona tee opea mokotibuna minaaka i mejana mia morangkaea sumai, moomini manga mantoa aumba adhelapi kumbi-kumbina.and longing to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.

22Kasiimpomo amatemo mia momisikinina sumai, kasiimpomo abhawamea manga malaaʼekati i tampa motohoromatina i saripina Nabii Ibrahim. O mia morangkaea sumai amate uka, kasiimpomo akoburumea.One day the beggar died and was carried by the angels to Abraham’s side. And the rich man also died and was buried.

23I dunia mia mate incia anarakaa mpuu. Tee wakutuuna incia apotingara i bhawo, incia akamata Nabii Ibrahim i karidhoana tee Lazarus dhaangia i saripina Ibrahim.In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham from afar, with Lazarus by his side.

24Mia morangkaea sumai agoramo, 'Uma Ibrahim, maasiakaakupo! Tumpuakaku Lazarus apalondoa kauna limana i nuncana uwe kasiimpo amai apekabhahoakaaku dhelaku, roonamo kunarakaa mpuu i nuncana waa sii!'So he cried out, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue. For I am in agony in this fire.’

25Maka Nabii Ibrahim apogaumo kooni, 'Udhania anaku, i nuncana dhadhimu ingkoo padhamo upokawaakea momalapena, sainamo Lazarus apotibhaaka momadhakina. Sii-sii incia asanaamo iwe sii, tee ingkoo unarakaa.But Abraham answered, ‘Child, remember that during your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things. But now he is comforted here, while you are in agony.

26Sainamo mboo sumai, i tanga-tangana ingkoo tee ingkami padhamo apewaua kabhalongko momaogena, mamudhaakana mia minaaka iwe sii inda membali alingka iwe sumai tee mia minaaka iwe sumai inda membali amai iwe sii!'And besides all this, a great chasm has been fixed between us and you, so that even those who wish cannot cross from here to you, nor can anyone cross from there to us.’

27Onina mia morangkaea sumai, 'Ande mboo sumai, kuemani mpuu Uma lambokoakaaku Lazarus alingka i bhanuana amaku,‘Then I beg you, father,’ he said, ‘send Lazarus to my father’s house,

28roonamo dhaangia lima mia witinaiku umane iwe sumai. Tumpua Lazarus audhaniakea manga, mamudhaakana manga incia uka inda akotibu i tampana kasikisaa sii.'for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also end up in this place of torment.’

29Nabii Ibrahim alawanimo kooni, 'Manga incia dhaangiamo Kitabina Musa tee Kitabi Momangkilona manga nabii! Taroakamea manga aose opea motoburina i nuncana manga Kitabi sumai!'But Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets; let your brothers listen to them.’

30Maka mia morangkaea sumai alawanimo, 'Humai inda akawa, Uma Ibrahim. Maka ande dhaangia momatena adhadhi pendua tee aumba i manga incia, manga incia bheatoba minaaka i dosana manga.'‘No, father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but if someone is sent to them from the dead, they will repent.’

31Maka Nabii Ibrahim alawanimo, 'Ande manga incia inda maheruakea parintana Nabii Musa tee manga nabii, dhaanamo manga incia inda bheaparacaea uka, moomini dhaangia mia mate adhadhi pendua.'"Then Abraham said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be persuaded even if someone rises from the dead.’”
