Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1Now all the tax collectors and sinners were gathering around to listen to Jesus.
1Sie len ah ke mwet eisani tax ac mwet koluk puspis saya fahsreni in lohng luti lun Jesus,
2So the Pharisees and scribes began to grumble: “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.”
2mwet Pharisee ac mwet luti Ma Sap uh mutawauk in torkaskas ac fahk, “Mwet se inge eisani mwet koluk ac el welulos pac mongo!”
3Then Jesus told them this parable:
3Ouinge Jesus el fahk pupulyuk se inge nu selos:
4“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?
4“Fin sie suwos oasr sheep siofok natul, ac soko tuhlac, mea el ac oru? Ya el ac tia filiya ma eungoul eu inima an ac som suk ma soko ma tuhlac nwe ke na el konauk?
5And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders,
5Ke el konalak el ac arulana engan, na el ac srakalak nu finpisal,
6comes home, and calls together his friends and neighbors to tell them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my lost sheep!’
6ac usal folokla nu yen sel ah. Na el ac pangoneni mwet kawuk lal ac mwet tulan lal ac fahk nu selos, ‘Fahsru wiyu engan, mweyen nga konauk sheep soko nutik ma tuhlac!’
7In the same way, I tell you that there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous ones who do not need to repent.
7Nga fahk nu suwos, in ouiya se pacna inge, ac fah oasr engan lulap inkusrao ke sie mwet koluk su auliyak, liki mwet suwoswos eungoul eu su nunku mu elos tia enenu in auliyak.
8Or 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?
8“Ku sie mutan fin oasr ipin mani singoul lal, ac sie tuhlac, mea el ac oru? Ya el ac tia akosak lam uh, imonla lohm uh, ac moniyuk in suk nwe ke na el konauk?
9And when she finds it, she calls together her friends and neighbors to say, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my lost coin.’
9Ke pacl se el konauk uh el ac pangoneni mwet kawuk lal ac mwet tulan lal ac fahk nu selos, ‘Fahsru wiyu engan, mweyen nga konauk ipin mani se luk ma tuhlac!’
10In the same way, I tell you, there is joy in the presence of God’s angels over one sinner who repents.”
10Nga fahk nu suwos, in ouiya se na inge, yohk engan yurin lipufan lun God ke sie mwet koluk su auliyak.”
11Then Jesus said, “There was a man who had two sons.
11Ac Jesus el sifilpa fahk, “Oasr wen luo nutin sie mwet.
12The younger son said to him, ‘Father, give me my share of the estate.’ So he divided his property between them.
12Wen se ma fusr ah fahk nu sin papa tumal, ‘Papa, ase nu sik inge ip luk ke mwe usru lom uh.’ Ouinge papa sac kitalik usru lal nu seltal.
13After a few days, the younger son got everything together and journeyed to a distant country, where he squandered his wealth in wild living.
13Tukun kutu len, wen se ma fusr ah el eisani ma lal nukewa ac som nu ke sie facl loessula, ac sununtei mani lal uh ke ma na wangin sripa.
14After he had spent all he had, a severe famine swept through that country, and he began to be in need.
14Tukun el sisla ma lal nukewa, na sie sracl lulap sikyak in facl sac, ac el muta in kwaco na lulap.
15So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed the pigs.
15Ke ma inge el som ac sukok orekma yurin sie mwet in facl sac, su supwalla nu inima lal in liyaung pig uh.
16He longed to fill his belly with the pods the pigs were eating, but no one would give him a thing.
16El kena akkihpye insial ke kulun bean nun pig uh, a wanginna mwet sang nu sel.
17Finally 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!
17Tok, el asmakla ac nunkauk in el mu, ‘Yolyak mwe mongo nun mwet orekma lun papa tumuk, a nga akuran misa ke masrinsral!
18I will get up and go back to my father and say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you.
18Inge nga ac tuyak ac folokla nu yurin papa tumuk ac fahk nu sel, “Papa, nga orekma koluk lain God ac lain kom.
19I am no longer worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants.”’
19Tia fal in sifil pangpang nga wen nutum. Oreyu oana sie sin mwet orekma lom.’”
20So 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.
20Ke ma inge, el tuyak ac folokla nu yurin papa tumal. “Ke el srakna fahsr loesla liki lohm sel uh, papa tumal ah liyalak ac arulana pakomutal, ac el kasrusr nu yurin wen natul, kafiselma inpaol ac ngok mutal.
21The son declared, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’
21Na wen sac fahk, ‘Papa, nga orekma koluk lain God ac lain kom. Tia fal in sifilpa pangpang nga wen nutum.’
22But 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.
22Tusruktu papa sac fahk nu sin mwet kulansap lal, ‘Sulaklak, use sie nuknuk na kato ac sang nokmulang. Sang pac sie ring nu ke paol, ac fahluk nu ke nial.
23Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let us feast and celebrate.
23Na kowos som ac use cow fusr soko ma fact oemeet uh ac uniya, kut in orek kufwa ac engan.
24For this son of mine was dead and is alive again! He was lost and is found!’ So they began to celebrate.
24Mwehen wen se nutik inge tuh misa, ac inge el sifil moul; el tuhlac, ac inge koneyukyak el.’ Ouinge kufwa ah mutawauk.
25Meanwhile the older son was in the field, and as he approached the house, he heard music and dancing.
25“In pacl se inge, wen se ma matu ah orekma oasr inimae. Ke el foloko ac apkuranyang nu ke lohm uh, el lohng pusren mwe on ac onsrosro.
26So he called one of the servants and asked what was going on.
26Na el pangonma sie sin mwet kulansap uh ac siyuk sel, ‘Mea orek uh?’
27‘Your brother has returned,’ he said, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf, because he has him back safe and sound.’
27Ac mwet kulansap sac fahk, ‘Tamulel se lom el foloko, ac papa tomom el uniya cow fusr soko ma fact oemeet uh, mweyen wen se natul ah painmoul foloko ac ku na.’
28The older son became angry and refused to go in. So his father came out and pleaded with him.
28Wen se ma matu arulana kasrkusrak, ac tia lungse utyak nu in lohm ah. Ouinge papa tumal el tufoki ac kwafe elan utyak.
29But 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.
29Tusruktu el topuk papa tumal ac fahk, ‘Liye, yac puspis nga orekma nu sum oana sie mwet foko, ac tiana seakos ma sap lom uh. Ac mea kom se nu sik? Ne nani soko, kom tia pac use nga in orek kufwa kac yurin mwet kawuk luk uh!
30But when this son of yours returns from squandering your wealth with prostitutes, you kill the fattened calf for him!’
30A wen se nutum inge el sununtei ma lom nukewa yurin mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lalos, ac ke el foloko kom uniya cow fusr soko ma fact oemeet uh nu sel!’
31‘Son, you are always with me,’ the father said, ‘and all that is mine is yours.
31Papa sac fahk nu sel, ‘Wen nutik, kom muta yuruk pacl nukewa, ac ma luk nukewa ma lom.
32But 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.’”
32A kut enenu na in orek kufwa ac engan, mweyen tamulel se lom inge el misa ac sifil moul. El tuhlac, ac inge sifil koneyukyak el.’”
