Luke 11 (YMP) · Opened

1Wak te me Yisu heteng mek îmô bôte. Heteng mek yôv me ya ŋa hîndông te henang ethak yêni nena, “Anômbêng, nôndông yoô vo yoô teng mek îtôm sêmbôk be Jon îndông ya ŋa hîndông.”One day in a place where Jesus had just finished praying, one of His disciples requested, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.”

2Me Yisu henang nena, “Môlô teng mek bêŋiti, “ ‘Wakamik, nombong yong athêng injêk matheng. Me yong lêkliŋyak bêng êlêm.So Jesus told them, “When you pray, say: ‘Father, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come.

3Me nôŋgêv nôm êndêng yoô îtôm wak nômbêng iti.Give us each day our daily bread.

4Me notak yoô ning kambom vômbê nena thak yoôtak avîlanô vi ning kambom takatu be evong êndêng yoô. Me dô notak yoôndôk nôm takatu be tem neyek yoô andô.’ ”And forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into temptation.’”

5Yôv me Yisu henang ambô dôhô te hêndêng loho nena, “Bîlîvông bing te me hô hêndêng yong anô môlôô te ya melak be honang nena, ‘Aiyang, yînîng anô môlôô te hêlêm nang long dêim be lêk hîmô yînîng melak be hema vo la be ya nôm mî. Be hîtôm nôŋgêv polom lokwaŋlô vo ya mesa?’Then Jesus said to them, “Suppose one of you goes to his friend at midnight and says, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,

7Me yong anô môlôô atu hîmô ya melak kapô tem nenang viyang nena, ‘Dô nuŋgik ya ling andô. Lêk yoô ik melak ambôlêk thing be aêkthôm yôv be tem mî yambiyô be yaŋgêv nômate êndêng ong amî.’And suppose the one inside answers, ‘Do not bother me. My door is already shut, and my children and I are in bed. I cannot get up to give you anything.’

8Yêni hêndô nêŋgêv ya anô môlôô livung. Metom ya hanang ethak môlô nena ôpêng enang ik yang êng ling lômbôlông, êng me tem moma be nimbiyô me nêŋgêv nôm îtôm datu be henang ik yêni ling.I tell you, even though he will not get up to provide for him because of his friendship, yet because of the man’s persistence, he will get up and give him as much as he needs.

9“Bêng yom me ya hanang ethak môlô nena, onang iŋgik Wapômbêng ling me tem nêŋgêv êndêng môlô. Me othalo nômate me tem ôpôm nôm êng. Me upindinding melak ambôlêk me tem niŋgik kê vo môlô.So I tell you: Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.

10Vômbê nena ŋa takatu be enang ik Wapômbêng ling me tem imbua. Me ethalo nômate me tem êpôm, me ipindinding melak ambôlêk, me tem niŋgik kê vo loho.For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.

11“Môlô sêiknena ning lami, nalum henang ik ong ling vo ninjang alim ŋanam me tem nôŋgêv bôyîv kambom te êndêng yêni mesa? Mî!What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead?

12Mena henang ik ling vo ninjang menak daluk, êng me tem nôŋgêv ŋalivang te mesa? Mî!Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?

13Môlô avîlanô kambom, metom thak môlôyala ôŋgêv nômkama mavî mavî hêndêng nalumi. Bêng be môlô ning Kamik atu be hîmô melak leng eyala katôyang îvô ethak vo môlô ning katik lo kamik, be ditu tem nêŋgêv Lovak Matheng êndêng ŋa takatu be enang ik yêni ling.”So if you who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!”

14Wak te me Yisu hêv gôk kambom vê hêk anô ambôlêk putup te. Me gôk kambom êng hetak anô êng be hê me anô ambôlêk putup êng enang ambô be avîlanô bêng anông êyê be esong kambom.One day Jesus was driving out a demon that was mute. And when the demon was gone, the man who had been mute spoke. The crowds were amazed,

15Metom avîlanô doho enang nena, “Gôk kambom ining anômbêng Belsebul hêv lêklokwang êndêng Yisu, be ditu hêv gôk kambom vê hêk avîlanô.”but some of them said, “It is by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons, that He drives out demons.”

16Me loho vi evong vo eyek Yisu be enang ik yêni ling nena, “Nombong nôm thamtham te vo niŋgik thô ethak yoô nena Wapômbêng êv ong be hôlêm.”And others tested Him by demanding a sign from heaven.

17Metom Yisu heyala loho ning auk be henang ethak loho nena, “Avîlanô melak lông te evak i kê hê ondong yi be evong vovak, êng me melak lông êng tem nêŋgêv yak. Me avîlanô ondong te evak i kê hê ondong yi, êng me ondong êng tem nêŋgêv yak bêng yom.Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said to them, “Every kingdom divided against itself will be laid waste, and a house divided against a house will fall.

18Me Sakdang ya gôk kambom evak i kê hê ondong yi, êng me Sakdang ya lêklokwang thak heyaŋging nômkama tem nemba manjeng amî. Ya hanang ambô ti vômbê nena môlô nang nena ya hêv gôk kambom vê hethak Belsebul ya lêklokwang.If Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom stand? After all, you say that I drive out demons by Beelzebul.

19Môlô nang nena ya hêv gôk kambom vê hethak Belsebul ya lêklokwang. Me opalête hêv lêklokwang êndêng môlô ning avîlanô be loho êv gôk kambom vê? Belsebul mesa opalê? Mî! Môlô da ning avîlanô ik thô nena môlô ning ambô me lêkwgak.And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.

20Wapômbêng da hêv lêklokwang hêndêng ya be ya hêv gôk kambom vê hêk avîlanô. Be ditu oyala nena Wapômbêng ya lêkliŋyak bêng lêk hêlêm îmô môlô lîvông yôv.But if I drive out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.

21“Anô lêklokwang te hîtôm Sakdang hevalong nômkama vovak be heyaŋging ya melak, êng me ya nômkama tem nîmô mavî.When a strong man, fully armed, guards his house, his possessions are secure.

22Metom anô te ya lêklokwang bêng anông vo ôpyang êng hîtôm Wapômbêng hêyô be hevong vovak hiving ôpêng hele be hîmô yêni li, êng me tem nimbua ôpêng ya nômkama vovak takatu be hêv iving nena nôm takêng tem nembong be nimbutak lêklokwang. Be ditu ôpatu be lovak me tem nîmbî yang atu be hêv yak ya nômkama tham.But when someone stronger attacks and overpowers him, he takes away the armor in which the man trusted, and then he divides up his plunder.

23“Anô te mî hêv ya livung be yêiŋgik vovak imbing Sakdang amî, êng me ôpêng heva hiving Sakdang be thêi vong vovak hiving ya. Me anô mî hêv ya livung be hithup avîlanô hêlêm bidong vo Wapômbêng amî, êng me hîtôm hindining loho be îsôv mayaliv.He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.

24“Gôk lêlêik hetak anô te, êng me hê heveng long thiliv vo nethalo long mavî te vo nimbua lovak îmô. Be mî hêpôm long te amî, êng me tem nenang nena, ‘Dô me yandena melak sêmbôk atu be ya hamô ethak loŋbô.’When an unclean spirit comes out of a man, it passes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’

25Me hêyô be hêyê nena melak êng lêk îthî be epesang be hivutak mambung anông.On its return, it finds the house swept clean and put in order.

26Êng me tem ni vo nethalo gôk bahevi be lahavôyi takatu be ining kambom hîvô hethak vo yêni ya be nimbua loho imbing vo imbutak êyô melak êng kapô ethak loŋbô be îmô. Êng me ôpêng tem nîmô kambom anông vo bôlôyang sêmbôk.”Then it goes and brings seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and dwell there. And the final plight of that man is worse than the first.”

27Yisu henang ambô takêng îmô denang me avî te hîmô avîlanô nômbêng êng lîvông be helam nena, “Mavî vo avî atu be hevathu ong be hêv sum êndêng ong, nîmô lêk la mavî.”As Jesus was saying these things, a woman in the crowd raised her voice and said, “Blessed is the womb that bore You, and blessed are the breasts that nursed You!”

28Metom Yisu henang nena, “Avanông, metom mavî bêng anông vo ôpatu be helaŋô Wapômbêng ya ambô be hesopa.”But He replied, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.”

29Avîlanô bêng anông êlêm be êlêm. Loho êyô vo Yisu me henang ethak loho nena, “Avîlanô bôlô tiêng me avîlanô kambom. Loho nang vo yambong nôm thamtham vo niŋgik thô nena Wapômbêng bôk hêv ya be ya halêm, metom tem mî. Loho tem injê Jona ya lavuning yom.As the crowds were increasing, Jesus said, “This is a wicked generation. It demands a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.

30Sêmbôk atu me Jona hivutak îtôm lavuning te vo avîlanô Ninive êyê. Me lêk iti me Anô Ya Nakandung atu tem nimbutak bêng yom vo avîlanô bôlô tiêng injê.For as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so the Son of Man will be a sign to this generation.

31“Sêmbôk me Siba ning avî king hetak ya long me hêlêm nang pîk ya dang vo nendaŋô Solomon ya auk mavî. Ondaŋô! Anô te hîmô long iti me bêng vo Solomon. Metom môlôndô ondaŋô ya ambô. Bêng be waklavông Wapômbêng îthô avîlanô pîk lelalîlîng me Siba ning avî king êng tem nenang môlô ning kambom thak môlô seng ambô bêng.The Queen of the South will rise at the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and now One greater than Solomon is here.

32Me sêmbôk be avîlanô Ninive elaŋô Jona ya ambô be ele kapôlôŋing lîlîng. Me anô te lêk hîmô long iti me bêng vo Jona. Metom môlôndô ondaŋô ya ambô. Bêng be waklavông Wapômbêng îthô avîlanô pîk lelalîlîng me tem avîlanô Ninive emba be enang môlô ning kambom takêng bêng.The men of Nineveh will stand at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now One greater than Jonah is here.

33“Anô mî thak êtôm lam be ivung hîmô long kapô mena îsîk thing ethak wîng amî, mî. Loho thak êthôkêng eva yêing vo avîlanô takatu be êyô melak kapô êng tem injê danda.No one lights a lamp and puts it in a cellar or under a basket. Instead, he sets it on a stand, so those who enter can see the light.

34Malemdaluk me hîtôm lam vo hêv danda hêndêng lemvim kôpik. Me malemdaluk mavî me tem danda injêk lemvim kôpik sapêng. Metom malemdaluk kambom me tem momaŋaning bêng injêk lemvim kôpik sapêng.Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are good, your whole body also is full of light. But when they are bad, your body is full of darkness.

35Be ditu noyaŋging ong katô. Endekeme nosong nena danda hîmô ong kapô, metom mî momaŋaning îmô kapô.Be careful, then, that the light within you is not darkness.

36Me danda hêk lemvim kôpik sapêng me momaŋaning mî hêk bôte amî, êng me lemvim kôpik sapêng tem nimbutak danda îtôm lam hêv danda hêndêng ong.”So if your whole body is full of light, with no part of it in darkness, you will be radiant, as though a lamp were shining on you.”

37Yisu henang ambô yôv me Palisi te henang ik yêni ling vo ninjang nôm imbing inda. Êng me Yisu hê hêyô vo ôpêng ya melak kapô be heyang nôm hîmô ya balê.As Jesus was speaking, a Pharisee invited Him to dine with him; so He went in and reclined at the table.

38Me Palisi êng êyê Yisu hîlôk îmô vo ninjang nôm me mî hithik bang hîtôm Palisi ning kombom amî. Êng me yêni hesong kambom.But the Pharisee was surprised to see that Jesus did not first wash before the meal.

39Me Anômbêng enang ethak yêni nena, “Môlô Palisi thak vôkîng keyek lêk belev vindôm yom, metom môlô kapôlômim hêyô thing ethak kombom kambom lêk maleŋing daŋtang.Then the Lord said, “Now you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness.

40Môlô ŋa molo. Wapômbêng hepesang vi yêing lêk vi kapô hiving. Be ditu môlômbôkîng kapôlômim imbing me mî bahemim yom amî.You fools! Did not the One who made the outside make the inside as well?

Be ditu dô ombong kombom mavî yang me otak yang andô.Woe to you Pharisees! For you pay tithes of mint, rue, and every herb, but you disregard justice and the love of God. You should have practiced the latter without neglecting the former.

43“Alitaknena vo môlô Palisi! Vovang bêng tem nêpôm môlô. Môlô lemim iving ômô balê mung îmô melak yeng kapô lêk lemim iving avîlanô etaving i be enang nena, ‘Waklîvông mavî,’ êndêng môlô îndôk long ethak tom îlôk.Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the chief seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.

44“Alitaknena vo môlô! Vovang bêng tem nêpôm môlô. Môlô lêlêik îtôm anô hema te atu be bôk elav bôô be avîlanô mî eyala kalang êng amî.

45Kîdôŋga balambung te helaŋô ambô êng me henang ethak Yisu nena, “Kîdôŋga, honang ambô êng êndêng Palisi me huik yoô susu hiving.”One of the experts in the law told Him, “Teacher, when You say these things, You insult us as well.”

46Me Yisu henang nena, “Alitaknena vo môlô ŋa lêk auk ethak ambô balambung! Vovang bêng tem nêpôm môlô imbing. Môlô êv balambung lomaloma bêng anông êndêng avîlanô vo esopa.

Metom mî môlô da ôŋgêv loho livung doke amî.“Woe to you as well, experts in the law!” He replied. “For you weigh men down with heavy burdens, but you yourselves will not lift a finger to lighten their load.

47“Alitaknena vo môlô! Vovang bêng tem nêpôm môlô. Limbumi bôk ik plopet bêng anông vônô me môlô lav melak êyô ining kalang takêng vôv be oyaŋging dendaung.

50Bêng be avîlanô bôlôti tem imbua vovang bêng ethak plopet takatu be limi bôk ik vônô hêndêng waklavông Wapômbêng epesang pîk hele be hêyô lêk.As a result, this generation will be charged with the blood of all the prophets that has been shed since the foundation of the world,

Yes, I tell you, all of it will be charged to this generation.
