Meriam Mir Gospels
1Now the publicans and sinners drew near unto him to hear him.
1Ege telona uridili pako uit le, uiaba tabakeauare abim, uiaba lagelag asoli.
2And the Pharisees and the scribes murmured, saying: This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them.
2Epe Faresaio giz a aotale giz, uiaba mudi mer, kega, Abele le E kemem uit giz, epe uiaba ereueda okakis.
3And he spoke to them this parable, saying:
3Ege E uiabi daratagerare nerute mer babisdarie, kega,
4What man of you that hath an hundred sheep: and if he shall lose one of them, doth he not leave the ninety-nine in the desert, and go after that which was lost, until he find it?
4Nete uaba le nagri mamoe netate handed, ese nerute mamoe obadimirik, ikedi nainte nain sumez ge, E bakeamu deraimer mamoe badimirida, E lagelag uaerdar?
5And when he hath found it, lay it upon his shoulders, rejoicing:
5Ese E uaerdar, E uatekapsi, a sererege.
6And coming home, call together his friends and neighbours, saying to them: Rejoice with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost?
6Ese abi boai giz uaerdarare, ege abara debud a maike le uiaba etami okakis, ege E uiabi daratagerare, kega, Debele meriba sererege, abelelam kaka ko erdali kara mamoe ge badimirida.
7I say to you, that even so there shall be joy in heaven upon one sinner that doth penance, more than upon ninety-nine just who need not penance.
7Kaka uabi detager, kega, Mokakalam gaire le kotor ge au sererege le uit a emetu obazgeda, a kebi kebi sererege nainte nain le giz barkak nole dikiapor obazgeda.
8Or what woman having ten groats; if she lose one groat, doth not light a candle, and sweep the house, and seek diligently until she find it?
8Nete kosker nagri ten mani, ese nerute mani badimirida, E lamepa disirik, meta ge poipi ame, elele deraimer E lagelag uaerdar?
9And when she hath found it, call together her friends and neighbours, saying: Rejoice with me, because I have found the groat which I had lost.
9Ese uaerdar, E darabgeri abara debud pako maikle giz, kega, Debele meriba sererege, abelelam kaka erdali abele mani badimirida.
10So I say to you, there shall be joy before the angels of God upon one sinner doing penance.
10Kaka uabi detager, kega, Mokakalam Ade ra angela kotor ge sererege, le uit a emetu obazgeda.
11And he said: A certain man had two sons:
11Ege E uiabi daratagerare, Nerute le neisi abara uerem:
12And the younger of them said to his father: Father, give me the portion of substance that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his substance.
12Ege keimer tabara aba detager, kega, Baba, ma kari nakuar kara lu. Ege abara lu erag uiabi naisuer.
13And not many days after, the younger son, gathering all together, went abroad into a far country: and there wasted his substance, living riotously.
13Ege uader gerger basemerare, ege keimered tabara lu etami okakis, ege bakeamulu nerute muriz gedim; E no adud tonar.
14And after he had spent all, there came a mighty famine in that country; and he began to be in want.
14Ege abara lu esemulu, abele ged uererege; ege nole leuer kak.
15And he went and cleaved to one of the citizens of that country. And he sent him into his farm to feed swine.
15E bakeamulu emeri nerute le erdar abele ged ge; E abi emariklu abele utebem borom asisiem.
16And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks the swine did eat; and no man gave unto him.
16E au lagelag borom ra poipi leuer, iaueakai abara gem osmeda: nole le abi lu ikuar.
17And returning to himself, he said: How many hired servants in my father’s house abound with bread, and I here perish with hunger?
17Ege E umele ge akailu, kega, kara Aba ra gaire memeg le, uiaba kaier areto gaire, a kaka uererege, mop ge eud!
18I will arise, and will go to my father, and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee:
18Debele kaka nakueilu nabakeamulu karbara abem, a abi detager, Baba, kaka uit Le emeri kotor ge, pako mara opem:
19I am not worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.
19Nole abkoreb kaka mara uerem: debele kaka mokakalam nerute mara memeg le.
20And rising up he came to his father. And when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and running to him fell upon his neck, and kissed him.
20E ekueilu bakeamulu tabara aba. Ege abi abet muriz ge erdali, epe E au nasenas, E au koreder, a abi erpei, a eskos.
21And the son said to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, I am not now worthy to be called thy son.
21A ueremet abi detager, Baba, kaka emetu uit Le emeri kotor ge, pako mara opem: nole abkoreb kaka mara uerem.
22And the father said to his servants: Bring forth quickly the first robe, and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet:
22Ege abet tabara memeg le giz daratagerare, kega, Debele tais perper am uali, debele ame; a ring ame abara tag, a teter gab ame:
23And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it, and let us eat and make merry:
23Debele tais kebi kau toertoer, ipit abele, mi aroare, a sererege:
24Because this my son was dead, and is come to life again: was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry.
24Abelelam kara uerem peike, E eumida, a ko eded akaida; E badimirida, a ko erdali. Ege uiaba sererege.
25Now his elder son was in the field, and when he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard music and dancing:
25Abara narbet uerem emeri sumez ge: E tabakeamulu maike uiaba meta ge, ege asoli uiaba uarup erem, a uedakiriare.
26And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.
26A E dabgeri nerute memeg le, a abi itimer, kega, Nalu pe ua ikereda?
27And he said to him: Thy brother is come, and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe.
27Ege E abi detager, kega, Mara le tabakeamuda; epe mara abet ipit kebi kau au toertoer, abelelam E ko erdali E nagri eded.
28And he was angry, and would not go in. His father therefore coming out began to entreat him.
28Epe E au ueku, umer kak bao meta ge: abara aba E osemelu adige, E abi okadersemer.
29And he answering, said to his father: Behold, for so many years do I serve thee, and I have never transgressed thy commandment, and yet thou hast never given me a kid to make merry with my friends:
29Ege E abi detager, abara aba, kega, Dasmer, gaire urut kaka mara memeg le, gaire mara mer kaka nole batauered: ma nole kari ikuar kebi nani, ki sererege debudkem:
30But as soon as this thy son is come, who hath devoured his substance with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.
30Ege mara uerem peike, dedkoli mara lu okakis adud kosker, E tabakeamuda, ma pe ipit kebi kau abim.
31But he said to him: Son, thou art always with me, and all I have is thine.
31Ege E abi detager, Kara uerem, mi emeri okakis, kara lu uridili, marim.
32But it was fit that we should make merry and be glad, for this thy brother was dead and is come to life again; he was lost, and is found.
32Ege abkoreb mi sererege: abelelam mara le pedali, E eumida, a ko eded akaida; E badimirida, a ko erdali.
