Luke 11 (YOR) · Opened

1Bí ó ti ń gbàdúrà ní ibi kan, bí ó ti dákẹ́, ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ wí fún un pé, “Olúwa, kọ́ wa bí a ti ń gbàdúrà, bí Johanu ti kọ́ àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀.”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.”

2Ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Nígbà tí ẹ̀yin bá ń gbàdúrà, ẹ máa wí pé: “ ‘Baba wa tí ń bẹ ní ọ̀run, kí á bọ̀wọ̀ fún orúkọ yín. Kí ìjọba yín dé, ìfẹ́ tiyín ni kí a ṣe, bí i ti ọrun, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ní ayé.So Jesus told them, “When you pray, say: ‘Father, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come.

3Fún wa ní oúnjẹ òòjọ́ wa lójoojúmọ́.Give us each day our daily bread.

4Kí o sì dárí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wa jì wá; nítorí àwa tìkára wa pẹ̀lú a máa dáríjì olúkúlùkù ẹni tí ó jẹ wá ní gbèsè, Má sì fà wá sínú ìdánwò, ṣùgbọ́n gbà wá lọ́wọ́ ẹni búburú ni.’ ”And forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into temptation.’”

5Ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ta ni nínú yín tí yóò ní ọ̀rẹ́ kan, tí yóò sì tọ̀ ọ́ lọ láàrín ọ̀gànjọ́, tí yóò sì wí fún un pé, ‘Ọ̀rẹ́, yá mi ní ìṣù àkàrà mẹ́ta.Then Jesus said to them, “Suppose one of you goes to his friend at midnight and says, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,

6Nítorí ọ̀rẹ́ mi kan ti àjò dé sọ́dọ̀ mi, èmi kò sì ní nǹkan tí èmi ó gbé kalẹ̀ níwájú rẹ̀.’because a friend of mine has come to me on a journey, and I have nothing to set before him.’

7Tí òun ó sì gbé inú ilé dáhùn wí fún un pé, ‘Má yọ mí lẹ́nu, a ti sé ìlẹ̀kùn, àwọn ọmọ mi si ń bẹ lórí ẹní pẹ̀lú mi: èmi kò lè dìde fi fún ọ!’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.’

8Mo wí fún yín, bí òun kò tilẹ̀ ti fẹ́ dìde kí ó fi fún un nítorí tí í ṣe ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n nítorí àwíìyánnu rẹ̀, yóò dìde, yóò sì fún un tó bí ó ti ń fẹ́.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“Èmí sì wí fún yín, ẹ béèrè, a ó sì fi fún un yín; ẹ wá kiri, ẹ̀yin ó sì rí; ẹ kànkùn, a ó sì ṣí i sílẹ̀ fún yín.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.

10Nítorí ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá béèrè, ó rí gbà; ẹni tí ó sì ń wá kiri, ó rí; àti ẹni tí ó kànkùn ni a ó ṣí i sílẹ̀ fún.For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.

11“Ta ni baba nínú yín tí ọmọ rẹ̀ yóò béèrè àkàrà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀, tí yóò fún un ní òkúta? Tàbí bí ó béèrè ẹja, tí yóò fún un ní ejò?What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead?

12Tàbí bí ó sì béèrè ẹ̀yin, tí yóò fún un ní àkéekèe?Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion?

13Ǹjẹ́ bí ẹ̀yin tí ó jẹ́ ènìyàn búburú bá mọ bí a ti í fi ẹ̀bùn dáradára fún àwọn ọmọ yín, mélòó mélòó ha ni Baba yín tí ń bẹ ní ọ̀run yóò fi Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ rẹ̀ fún àwọn tí ó béèrè lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀!”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!”

14Ó sì ń lé ẹ̀mí èṣù kan jáde, tí ó sì yadi. Nígbà tí ẹ̀mí èṣù náà jáde, odi sọ̀rọ̀; ẹnu sì ya ìjọ ènìyàn.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,

15Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ẹlòmíràn nínú wọn wí pé, “Nípa Beelsebulu olórí àwọn ẹ̀mí èṣù ni ó fi ń lé àwọn ẹ̀mí èṣù jáde.”but some of them said, “It is by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons, that He drives out demons.”

16Àwọn ẹlòmíràn sì ń dán an wò, wọ́n ń fẹ́ àmì lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ láti ọ̀run wá.And others tested Him by demanding a sign from heaven.

17Ṣùgbọ́n òun mọ èrò inú wọn, ó wí fún wọn pé, “Gbogbo ìjọba tí ó ya ara rẹ̀ ní ipá, ni a ń sọ di ahoro; ilé tí ó sì ya ara rẹ̀ nípá yóò wó.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.

18Bí Satani ba yapa sí ara rẹ̀, ìjọba rẹ̀ yóò ha ṣe dúró? Nítorí ẹ̀yin wí pé, nípa Beelsebulu ni èmi fi ń lé àwọn ẹ̀mí èṣù jáde.If Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom stand? After all, you say that I drive out demons by Beelzebul.

19Bí ó ba ṣe pé nípa Beelsebulu ni èmi fi ń lé àwọn ẹ̀mí èṣù jáde, nípa ta ni àwọn ọmọ yín fi ń lé wọn jáde, nítorí náà àwọn ni yóò ṣe onídàájọ́ yín.And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons drive them out? So then, they will be your judges.

20Ṣùgbọ́n bí ó bá ṣe pé nípa ìka ọwọ́ Ọlọ́run ni èmi fi ń lé àwọn ẹ̀mí èṣù jáde, ǹjẹ́ ìjọba Ọlọ́run dé bá yín tán.But if I drive out demons by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.

21“Nígbà tí alágbára ọkùnrin tí ó ni ìhámọ́ra bá ń ṣọ́ ààfin rẹ̀, ẹrù rẹ̀ yóò wà ní àlàáfíà.When a strong man, fully armed, guards his house, his possessions are secure.

22Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí ẹni tí ó ní agbára jù ú bá kọlù ú, tí ó sì ṣẹ́gun rẹ̀ a gba gbogbo ìhámọ́ra rẹ̀ tí ó gbẹ́kẹ̀lé lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀, a sì pín ìkógun rẹ̀.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“Ẹni tí kò bá wà pẹ̀lú mi, ó lòdì sí mi, ẹni tí kò bá sì bá mi kójọpọ̀, ó fọ́nká.He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters.

24“Nígbà tí ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ bá jáde kúrò lára ènìyàn, a máa rìn kiri ní ibi gbígbẹ, a máa wá ibi ìsinmi; nígbà tí kò bá sì rí, a wí pé, ‘Èmi yóò padà lọ sí ilé mi ní ibi tí mo gbé ti jáde wá.’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.’

25Nígbà tí ó bá sì dé, tí ó sì rí tí a gbá a, tí a sì ṣe é ní ọ̀ṣọ́.On its return, it finds the house swept clean and put in order.

26Nígbà náà ni yóò lọ, yóò sì mú ẹ̀mí méje mìíràn tí ó burú ju òun tìkára rẹ̀ lọ wá, wọn yóò wọlé, wọn yóò sì máa gbé níbẹ̀, ìgbẹ̀yìn ọkùnrin náà yóò sì burú ju ìṣáájú rẹ̀ lọ.”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.”

27Bí ó ti ń sọ nǹkan wọ̀nyí, obìnrin kan gbóhùn rẹ̀ sókè nínú ìjọ, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Ìbùkún ni fún inú tí ó bí ọ, àti ọmú tí ìwọ mu!”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!”

28Ṣùgbọ́n òun wí pé, nítòótọ́, kí ó kúkú wí pé, “Ìbùkún ni fún àwọn tí ń gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Ọlọ́run, tí wọ́n sì pa á mọ́!”But He replied, “Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it.”

29Nígbà tí ìjọ ènìyàn sì ṣùjọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀, ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí wí pé, “Ìran búburú ni èyí, wọ́n ń wá àmì; a kì yóò sì fi àmì kan fún un bí kò ṣe àmì Jona wòlíì!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.

30Nítorí bí Jona ti jẹ́ àmì fún àwọn ará Ninefe, gẹ́gẹ́ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Ọmọ Ènìyàn yóò ṣe jẹ́ àmì fún ìran yìí.For as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so the Son of Man will be a sign to this generation.

31Ọbabìnrin gúúsù yóò dìde ní ọjọ́ ìdájọ́ pẹ̀lú àwọn ènìyàn ìran yìí, yóò sì dá wọn lẹ́bi: nítorí tí ó ti ìhà ìpẹ̀kun ayé wá láti gbọ́ ọgbọ́n Solomoni: sì kíyèsi i, ẹni tí ó pọ̀jù Solomoni lọ ń bẹ níhìn-ín yìí.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.

32Àwọn ará Ninefe yóò dìde ní ọjọ́ ìdájọ́ pẹ̀lú ìran yìí, wọn ó sì dá a lẹ́bi: nítorí tí wọn ronúpìwàdà nípa ìwàásù Jona; sì kíyèsi i, ẹni tí ó pọ̀jù Jona lọ ń bẹ níhìn-ín yìí.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“Kò sí ẹnìkan, nígbà tí ó bá tan fìtílà tan, tí gbé e sí ìkọ̀kọ̀, tàbí sábẹ́ òsùwọ̀n, bí kò ṣe sórí ọ̀pá fìtílà, kí àwọn tí ń wọlé ba à lè máa rí ìmọ́lẹ̀.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.

34Ojú ni fìtílà ara: bí ojú rẹ bá mọ́lẹ̀ kedere, gbogbo ara rẹ a mọ́lẹ̀; ṣùgbọ́n bí ojú rẹ bá ṣókùnkùn, ara rẹ pẹ̀lú a kún fún òkùnkùn.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.

35Nítorí náà kíyèsi i, kí ìmọ́lẹ̀ tí ń bẹ nínú rẹ má ṣe di òkùnkùn.Be careful, then, that the light within you is not darkness.

36Ǹjẹ́ bí gbogbo ara rẹ bá kún fún ìmọ́lẹ̀, tí kò ní apá kan tí ó ṣókùnkùn, gbogbo rẹ̀ ni yóò ní ìmọ́lẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìgbà tí fìtílà bá fi ìtànṣán rẹ̀ fún ọ ní ìmọ́lẹ̀.”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.”

37Bí ó sì ti ń wí, Farisi kan bẹ̀ ẹ́ kí ó bá òun jẹun: ó sì wọlé, ó jókòó láti jẹun.As Jesus was speaking, a Pharisee invited Him to dine with him; so He went in and reclined at the table.

38Nígbà tí Farisi náà sì rí i, ẹnu yà á nítorí tí kò kọ́kọ́ wẹ ọwọ́ kí ó tó jẹun.But the Pharisee was surprised to see that Jesus did not first wash before the meal.

39Olúwa sì wí fún un pé, “Ẹ̀yin Farisi a máa ń fọ òde ago àti àwopọ̀kọ́: ṣùgbọ́n, inú yín kún fún ìwà búburú àti ìrẹ́jẹ.Then the Lord said, “Now you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness.

40Ẹ̀yin aṣiwèrè, ẹni tí ó ṣe èyí tí ń bẹ lóde, òun kò ha ṣe èyí tí ń bẹ nínú pẹ̀lú?You fools! Did not the One who made the outside make the inside as well?

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“Ègbé ni fún yín, ẹ̀yin Farisi, àgàbàgebè! Nítorí tí ẹ̀yin fẹ́ ipò ọlá nínú Sinagọgu, àti ìkíni ní ọjà.Woe to you Pharisees! For you love the chief seats in the synagogues and the greetings in the marketplaces.

46Ó sì wí pé, “Ègbé ni fún ẹ̀yin amòfin pẹ̀lú, nítorí tí ẹ̀yin di ẹrù tí ó wúwo láti rù lé ènìyàn lórí, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹ̀yin tìkára yín kò jẹ́ fi ìka yín kan ẹrù náà.“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“Ègbé ni fún yín, nítorí tí ẹ̀yin kọ́ ibojì àwọn wòlíì, tí àwọn baba yín pa.Woe to you! For you build tombs for the prophets, but it was your fathers who killed them.
