YMP
Ŋa iwa takis lêk ŋa evong kombom kambom, êlêm vo endaŋô Yisu ya ambô.
BSB
BSB:
Now all the tax collectors and sinners were gathering around to listen to Jesus.
2
YMP
Metom Palisi lêk kîdôŋga ambô balambung enang ambô ŋôlôŋôlông bêng anông be enang nena, “Ôpiti hiwa ŋa kombom kambom thô be heyang nôm hiving loho.”
BSB
BSB:
So the Pharisees and scribes began to grumble: “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.”
3
YMP
Êng me Yisu henang ambô dôhô tiêng hêndêng loho nena,
BSB
BSB:
Then Jesus told them this parable:
4
YMP
“Môlô te ya boksipsip hîtôm 100 be te mî, êng me tem nembong ômbête? Yêni tem netak boksipsip 99 atu be injang kamung îmô me tem ni vo nethalo ali atu be mî endebe nêpôm êm.
BSB
BSB:
“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?
5
YMP
Me wakma atu be hêpôm me tem nimbua êyônjêk thakôk lêk la mavî bini.
BSB
BSB:
And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders,
6
YMP
Me hêyô ya melak me tem nendam ya ŋa môlôô lêk ŋa takatu be îmô bidong iving yêni be nenang nena, ‘Ya leng mavî anông ethak lêk ya hatung yînîng boksipsip atu yôv, be ditu môlôlêm vo aô leŋing mavî ethak tom.’
BSB
BSB:
comes home, and calls together his friends and neighbors to tell them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my lost sheep!’
7
YMP
“Me ya hanang ethak môlô nena, ŋa melak leng leŋing mavî anông vo avîlanô thêthôp hîtôm 99 takatu be bôk ele kapôlôŋing lîlîng yôv, metom loho leŋing mavî bêng anông hîvô hethak vo anô kombom kambom te hele kapô lîlîng.”
BSB
BSB:
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.
8
YMP
Me Yisu henang nena, “Avî te ya valuseleng silva lauming hîmô metom te mî. Êng me tem nembong ômbête? Yêni tem nêtôm amela be nîthî melak kapô be nethalo endebe nêpôm valuseleng êng.
BSB
BSB:
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?
9
YMP
Me wakma atu be hêpôm me tem nendam ya ŋa môlôô lêk ya ŋa takatu be îmô bidong iving yêni me nenang ethak loho nena, ‘Ya leng mavî anông ethak lêk ya hatung yînîng valuseleng atu yôv, be ditu môlôlêm vo aô leŋing mavî ethak tom.’
BSB
BSB:
And when she finds it, she calls together her friends and neighbors to say, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my lost coin.’
10
YMP
Ya hanang ethak môlô nena, leŋing mavî te da bêng yom thak hivutak hêk Wapômbêng ya aŋêla lîvông hethak anô kombom kambom te hele kapô lîlîng.”
BSB
BSB:
In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of God’s angels over one sinner who repents.”
11
YMP
Me Yisu henang nena, “Anô te namalô bôp lo nok îmô.
BSB
BSB:
Then Jesus said,
“There was a man who had two sons.
12
YMP
Wak te me nok enang ethak lambô nena, ‘Wakamik, nombak yong nômkama kê ni ondong yi be nôŋgêv yînîng êndêng ya.’ Êng me lambô hik nômkama tham hê ondong yi be hêv êndêng namalô luvi.
BSB
BSB:
The younger son said to him, ‘Father, give me my share of the estate.’ So he divided his property between them.
13
YMP
“Yôv me nok hîmô vauyaŋna me hêv ya nômkama be avîlanô êv vuli me hiwa valuseleng sapêng be hê long bôyang. Me hevong kombom kambom lomaloma be hivuling ya valuseleng sapêng.
BSB
BSB:
After a few days, the younger son got everything together and journeyed to a distant country, where he squandered his wealth in wild living.
14
YMP
Hele be ya valuseleng hitup me bôm bêng hêyô long êng me hêv yak ethak nômkama sapêng.
BSB
BSB:
After he had spent all he had, a severe famine swept through that country, and he began to be in need.
15
YMP
Me hê hêyô vo anô long êng te me henang ik ôpêng ling vo nêŋgêv ku te vo yênimbong, êng me ôpêng hêv ku vo neyaŋging ya bok.
BSB
BSB:
So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed the pigs.
16
YMP
Me hema ve la be la hiving ninjang bok ining nôm doho, vômbê nena anô te mî hêv nômate hêndêng yêni amî.
BSB
BSB:
He longed to fill his belly with the pods the pigs were eating, but no one would give him a thing.
17
YMP
“Yôv me yêni hiwa auk mavî be henang nena, ‘Aê, wakamik lêk ya ŋa ku sapêng eyang nôm mavî bêng anông be ekaliv viyang hê. Metom ya hamô long iti be ya hama vo ya leng kambom anông be tem ya ma!
BSB
BSB:
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!
18
YMP
Yambiyô be yana vo wakamik me ya nang ethak yêni nena, “Wakamik, ya havong kambom bêng êndêng ong lêk Wapômbêng.
BSB
BSB:
I will get up and go back to my father and say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you.
19
YMP
Ya mî anô mavî hîtôm nondam ya nena nalum amî. Be ditu notak ya îtôm yong anô ku te.” ’
BSB
BSB:
I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants.”’
20
YMP
“Yôv me yêni hiviyô be hê hêyô vo lambô. Me heva dêim denang me lambô hêyê be lahiki hethak yêni. Me hevothong be hê hêndêng namalô me heva inda hêk be hiŋgu mandang lômbôlông.
BSB
BSB:
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.
21
YMP
“Me nakandung enang ethak lambô nena, ‘Wakamik, ya havong kambom bêng hêndêng ong lêk Wapômbêng. Ya mî anô mavî hîtôm nondam ya nena nalum malô amî.’
BSB
BSB:
The son declared, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’
22
YMP
“Metom lambô henang ethak ya ŋa ku nena, ‘Ketheng! Umbua kwêv dêim ali mavî anông atu lêm vo aôŋgik îndôk yînîng wakna. Me uŋgik thilak îndôk baŋduk me uŋgik vakapô bokgôp ethak yêni va.
BSB
BSB:
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.
23
YMP
Me môlô nu umbua bokmaŋkao dopdop te lêm me uŋgik vo aôŋgang lêk leŋing mavî,
BSB
BSB:
Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let us feast and celebrate.
24
YMP
vômbê nena yînîng wakna tiêng bôk hema yôv, metom lêk hîmô lêkmala hethak loŋbô. Yêni bôk mî, metom lêk aô pôm yêni hethak loŋbô.’ Êng me loho eŋgambôm nôm bêng be eyang me leŋing mavî.
BSB
BSB:
For this son of mine was dead and is alive again! He was lost and is found!’ So they began to celebrate.
25
YMP
“Me namalô bôp heveng ku denang. Yôv me hetak kukapô me hele hêlêm êyô bidong melak me helaŋô avîlanô eloyeng bêng.
BSB
BSB:
Meanwhile the older son was in the field, and as he approached the house, he heard music and dancing.
26
YMP
Êng me yêni helam anô ku te hêlêm me henang ik ôpêng ling nena, ‘Loho vong ômbête?’
BSB
BSB:
So he called one of the servants and asked what was going on.
27
YMP
Me anô ku êng henang ethak yêni nena, ‘Aviyam molok hele hêlêm be lemambô lêk hiwa yêni hethak loŋbô be hik bokmaŋkao dopdop te, vômbê nena yêni hîmô mavî be hele hêlêm.’
BSB
BSB:
‘Your brother has returned,’ he said, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has him back safe and sound.’
28
YMP
“Namalô bôp helaŋô ambô êng me la maning be hêndô ni melak kapô. Êng me lambô hele yêing me hevong vo nembong yêni lanjêk yaô.
BSB
BSB:
The older son became angry and refused to go in. So his father came out and pleaded with him.
29
YMP
Metom henang ethak lambô nena, ‘Nondaŋô! Sondakbêng nômbêng iti me thak mî ya haseng yong ambô amî me thak ya havong yong ku hîtôm anô oyang. Metom bôk mî huik bokmeme map te vo ya lêk yînîng ŋa môlôô aŋgang amî.
BSB
BSB:
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.
30
YMP
Me nalum iti bôk hêv yong nômkama sapêng hêndêng avî sek mayaliv, metom hîvô lêm me huik êi ning bokmaŋkao dopdop mavî ti vo?’
BSB
BSB:
But when this son of yours returns from squandering your wealth with prostitutes, you kill the fattened calf for him!’
31
YMP
“Me lambô henang ethak inda nena, ‘Yînîng wakna, wak nômbêng iti me hômô hiving ya be yînîng nômkama sapêng me yong.
BSB
BSB:
‘Son, you are always with me,’ the father said, ‘and all that is mine is yours.
32
YMP
Metom lêk me aô leŋing mavî, vômbê nena aviyam molok bôk hema yôv metom lêk hîmô lêkmala hethak loŋbô. Yêni bôk mî metom lêk aô tung yêni hethak loŋbô.’ ”
BSB
BSB:
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.’”
