1Jesus el fahk nu sin mwet tumal lutlut, “Oasr sie mwet na kasrup, su filiya sie mwet tutafpo in liyaung ma lal nukewa. Na fwackyang nu sin mwet kasrup sac lah mwet tutafpo se lal ah supoklotina ma lal uh.
1Jesus also said to His disciples, “There was a rich man whose manager was accused of wasting his possessions.
2Ouinge el pangnolma ac fahk nu sel, ‘Mea nga lohng keim inge? Ase nu sik sie pwepu in akkalemye orekmakinyen ma luk uh sum, mweyen kom ac tia sifil karingin ma luk uh.’
2So he called him in to ask, ‘What is this I hear about you? Turn in an account of your management, for you cannot be manager any longer.’
3Ac mwet tutafpo sac sifacna nunku in el, ‘Mea nga ac oru, ke leum luk el akola in sisyula liki orekma luk uh? Nga munas in wi puk laf, ac nga mwekin in ngusr.
3The manager said to himself, ‘What shall I do, now that my master is taking away my position? I am too weak to dig and too ashamed to beg.
4Kwal, nga etu lah mea nga ac oru, tuh mwet uh in suliyu nu in lohm selos tukun sisila nga liki orekma luk.’
4I know what I will do, so that after my removal from management, people will welcome me into their homes.’
5Ouinge el solama kais sie mwet ma oasr soemoul la nu sin leum sac. El siyuk sin mwet se meet ah, ‘Lupa su soemoul lom nu sin leum luk?’
5And he called in each one of his master’s debtors. ‘How much do you owe my master?’ he asked the first.
6Ac el topuk, ‘Barrel siofok ke oil in olive.’ Na mwet tutafpo sac fahk nu sel, ‘Pa inge pwepu in misa lom uh. Muta insacn, simusla ma lumngaul.’
6‘A hundred measures of olive oil,’ he answered. ‘Take your bill,’ said the manager. ‘Sit down quickly, and write fifty.’
7Na el sifil siyuk sin sie pac, ‘Ac kom, lupa su soemoul lom?’ Ac mwet sac topuk, ‘Sie tausin bushel in wheat.’ Na mwet tutafpo sac fahk ouinge, ‘Pa inge pwepu in misa lom uh. Simusla ma oalfoko.’
7Then he asked another, ‘And how much do you owe?’ ‘A hundred measures of wheat,’ he replied. ‘Take your bill and write eighty,’ he told him.
8Ouinge, leum lun mwet tutafpo kutasrik sac kaksakunul ke inkanek usrnguk ma el oru, mweyen mwet facl se inge arulana yohk usrnguk lalos ke ma elos oru, liki mwet lun kalem uh.”
8The master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly. For the sons of this age are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the sons of light.
9Ac Jesus el sifilpa fahk, “Ke ma inge nga fahk nu suwos: orekmakin mwe kasrup lun faclu tuh kowos in konauk mwet kawuk lowos, na ke pacl se lisr, ac fah suliyuk kowos nu in lohm kawil.
9I tell you, use worldly wealth to make friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, they will welcome you into eternal dwellings.
10Kutena mwet su oaru in ma srik, ac fah oaru pac ke ma yohk; ac kutena mwet su sesuwos in ma srik ac fah sesuwos pac ke ma yohk.
10Whoever is faithful with very little will also be faithful with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.
11Kowos fin soaru in karingin mwe kasrup lun faclu, ac ku in lulalfongiyuk kowos fuka in karingin mwe kasrup pwaye uh?
11So if you have not been faithful with worldly wealth, who will entrust you with true riches?
12Ac kowos fin soaru in karingin ma lun siena mwet, su ac ku in sot ma lowos?
12And if you have not been faithful with the belongings of another, who will give you belongings of your own?
13“Wangin mwet kulansap ku in kulansapu leum luo. El ac srunga sie, ac lungse el ngia; el ac pwaye nu sin sie, ac kwase el ngia. Kowos koflana kulansupu God ac mani.”
13No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.”
14Ke mwet Pharisee elos lohng ma inge elos isrun Jesus, mweyen elos lungse mani.
14The Pharisees, who were lovers of money, heard all of this and were scoffing at Jesus.
15Jesus el fahk nu selos, “Kowos sifacna oru lumowos in suwohs ye mutun mwet uh, tusruk God El etu insiowos. Tuh ma su mwet uh pangon yohk sripa selos, ma inge pilasr ye mutun God.
15So He said to them, “You are the ones who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. For what is prized among men is detestable before God.
16“Ma Sap lal Moses ac ma simusla lun mwet palu uh orekmakinyuk na nwe ke pacl lal John Baptais ah. In pacl sac me, Pweng Wo ke Tokosrai lun God uh fwackyak, ac mwet uh aikusiyak in utyak nu loac.
16The Law and the Prophets were proclaimed until John. Since that time, the gospel of the kingdom of God is being preached, and everyone is forcing his way into it.
17Tusruktu, fisrasr tuh kusrao ac faclu in wanginla, liki sie akul srisrik ke sie leta ke Ma Sap uh in wanginla.
17But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away than for a single stroke of a pen to drop out of the Law.
18“Kutena mukul su sisla mutan kial ac payuk nu sin sie pacna mutan, el orek kosro; ac sie mukul su payuk nu sin mutan sisila se, el oayapa orek kosro.
18Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery, and he who marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
19“Oasr sie mwet kasrup su nukum nuknuk na yohk molo, ac el moul in mut len nukewa.
19Now there was a rich man dressed in purple and fine linen, who lived each day in joyous splendor.
20Na oasr pac sie mwet sukasrup pangpang Lazarus, su manol nuklana ke ruf, ac kwacna utukla el in muta ke mutunoa in lohm sin mwet kasrup sac,
20And a beggar named Lazarus lay at his gate, covered with sores
21mweyen el finsrak na elan ku in kang kutkut in mongo ma ac putatla liki tepu lun mwet kasrup sac. Kosro ngalngul uh ac tuku pac lohi ruf kacl uh.
21and longing to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.
22Mwet sukasrup sac misa, ac lipufan uh usalla elan tuh muta siskal Abraham ke kufwa inkusrao uh. Mwet kasrup sac misa ac pukpuki el,
22One day the beggar died and was carried by the angels to Abraham’s side. And the rich man also died and was buried.
23ac ke el muta in Hades, yen ma el pulakin keok upa nu sel, el ngetak ac liyal Abraham yen loessula, ac Lazarus el muta siskal.
23In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham from afar, with Lazarus by his side.
24Na el pangyak ac fahk, ‘Papa Abraham! Pakomutuk, ac supwalma Lazarus elan isongya kufinpaol in kof an ac kahlye mutun louk in akoyohuyauk, tuh nga muta in keok lulap in e se inge!’
24So he cried out, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue. For I am in agony in this fire.’
25Ac Abraham el fahk, ‘Ma nutik, esam lah pacl kom moul muta fin faclu ma nukewa wo ac fisrasr nu sum, a funu Lazarus el muta in ongoiya ac moul upa. Inge el muta insewowo inse, a kom muta in keok.
25But Abraham answered, ‘Child, remember that during your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things. But now he is comforted here, while you are in agony.
26Sayen ma inge, oasr luf na lulap se srikutelik, pwanang kutena mwet ma ac ke fahsrot ingewot nu yurum ac tia ku in orala, ac wangin pac mwet ac ku in tuku yurum me nu yorosr.’
26And besides all this, a great chasm has been fixed between us and you, so that even those who wish cannot cross from here to you, nor can anyone cross from there to us.’
27Na mwet kasrup sac fahk, ‘Fin ouingan nga kwafe sum, Papa Abraham, supwalla Lazarus nu in lohm sin papa tumuk,
27‘Then I beg you, father,’ he said, ‘send Lazarus to my father’s house,
28yen tamulel limekosr luk oasr we. Lela elan som ac sensenkunulos, tuh elos in mau tia tuku nu yen waiok se inge.’
28for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also end up in this place of torment.’
29Abraham el fahk, ‘Kas lal Moses ac lun mwet palu uh oasr yorolos. Elos in porongo kas lalos an.’
29But Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the prophets; let your brothers listen to them.’
30Mwet kasrup sac fahk, ‘Papa Abraham, srakna sufal ma kom fahk ingan! Tuh fin oasr mwet se moulyak liki misa ac som nu yorolos, na elos fah ku in auliyak ac forla liki ma koluk lalos.’
30‘No, father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but if someone is sent to them from the dead, they will repent.’
31Ac Abraham el fahk, ‘Elos fin tia lohngol Moses ac mwet palu uh, elos ac tia pac lulalfongi finne oasr mwet se moulyak liki misa.’”
31Then Abraham said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets, they will not be persuaded even if someone rises from the dead.’”
