Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1He began to speak to them in parables. “A man planted a vineyard, put a hedge around it, dug a pit for the wine press, built a tower, rented it out to a farmer, and went into another country.
1Na Jesus el kaskas nu selos ke kas in pupulyuk ac fahk, “Sie mwet el yukwiya sie ima in grape. El orala kalkal se rauneak, ac pukanak luf in itat wain se, ac musaela nien soan se. Na el sang ima se inge nu sin kutu mwet in karingin, na el som liki acn sel nu in sie pac facl.
2When it was time, he sent a servant to the farmer to get from the farmer his share of the fruit of the vineyard.
2Ac ke sun pacl in telani fokin grape uh, el supwala sie mwet kulansap nu yurin mwet karingin ima sac, tuh elan eis selos ip lal ke kosrani lun grape uh.
3They took him, beat him, and sent him away empty.
3Ac mwet karingin ima sac elos sruokilya, srunglul, ac folokunulla pusin po.
4Again, he sent another servant to them; and they threw stones at him, wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully treated.
4Na mwet kacto sac el sifil supwala sie pac mwet kulansap; ac mwet liyaung nien grape uh elos kanteya sifal, ac oru ma na koluk nu sel.
5Again he sent another, and they killed him, and many others, beating some, and killing some.
5Na el supwala pac sie mwet kulansap, ac elos unilya. Elos oru ouinge pac nu sin mwet puspis. Elos puok kutu ac uniya kutu.
6Therefore still having one, his beloved son, he sent him last to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’
6Ac mwet sefanna lula yorol, pa wen kulo se natul. Na tok, el supwala wen natul nu sin mwet liyaung nien grape uh. Ac el sifacna nunku in el, ‘Nga lulalfongi mu elos ac fah sunakin wen nutik.’
7But those farmers said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let’s kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’
7Tusruktu mwet liyaung nien grape uh fahk nu sin sie sin sie, ‘Wen se nutin mwet kacto sac pa inge. Fahsru kut unilya, ac ima se inge fah ma lac lasr!’
8They took him, killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.
8Ouinge elos sruokilya, unilya ac sisla manol liki nien grape uh.”
9What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.
9Ac Jesus el siyuk, “Na mea mwet se la nien grape uh fah oru? El fah tuku ac onelosi, ac sang nien grape uh nu sin kutu pac mwet in liyaung.
10Haven’t you even read this Scripture: ‘The stone which the builders rejected was made the head of the corner.
10Ya kowos soenna rit Ma Simusla se inge? ‘Eot se ma mwet musa uh sisla, Pa yohk sripa oemeet uh.
11This was from the Lord. It is marvelous in our eyes’?”
11Leum pa oru ma inge uh; Fuka lupan usrngukiya in liye!”
12They tried to seize him, but they feared the multitude; for they perceived that he spoke the parable against them. They left him and went away.
12Mwet fulat lun mwet Jew inge srike in sruokilya Jesus ke sripen elos etu mu el fahk pupulyuk inge in lainulos. Tuh elos sangeng sin un mwet puspis, ouinge elos som lukel.
13They sent some of the Pharisees and the Herodians to him, that they might trap him with words.
13Kutu sin mwet Pharisee ac kutu mwet in u lal Herod supweyukla nu yurin Jesus in tuh srifal ke kutu mwe siyuk.
14When they had come, they asked him, “Teacher, we know that you are honest, and don’t defer to anyone; for you aren’t partial to anyone, but truly teach the way of God. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?
14Ke elos tuku nu yorol elos fahk, “Mwet Luti, kut etu lah kom fahk ma pwaye ac tia suk lah mea mwet uh ac nunku kac. Kom tia kolak sin kutena mwet, a kom luti ma pwaye ke lungse lun God. Fahk nu sesr, ya ac lain Ma Sap lasr kut in akfalye tax nu sin Caesar, tokosra fulat in acn Rome?
15Shall we give, or shall we not give?” But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said to them, “Why do you test me? Bring me a denarius, that I may see it.”
15Ya kut ac sang, ku tia?” Tuh Jesus el etu kutasrik lalos, na el topuk ac fahk nu selos, “Efu kowos ku srike in srifeyu? Use sie ipin mani silver an nu sik ngan liye.”
16They brought it. He said to them, “Whose is this image and inscription?” They said to him, “Caesar’s.”
16Ac elos use, na el fahk nu selos, “Mutun su kac inge, ac inen su inge?” Na elos topuk ac fahk, “Ma lun Caesar.”
17Jesus answered them, “Give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” They marveled greatly at him.
17Ouinge Jesus el fahk nu selos, “Na fin pa ingan, sang nu sin Caesar ma lun Caesar, ac nu sin God ma lun God.” Ac elos arulana fwefela sel.
18Some Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection, came to him. They asked him, saying,
18Na kutu mwet Sadducee su fahk mu wangin sifil moulyak liki misa, elos tuku nu yurin Jesus ac fahk,
19“Teacher, Moses wrote to us, ‘If a man’s brother dies and leaves a wife behind him, and leaves no children, that his brother should take his wife and raise up offspring for his brother.’
19“Mwet Luti, Moses el simusla sie ma sap nu sesr fahk mu, ‘Sie mukul fin misa, ac wangin tulik natul nu sin mutan kial, na sie ma lel fah eis katinmas sacn kial ac eltal fah oswela tulik su ac fah pangpang ma nutin ma lel su misa.’
20There were seven brothers. The first took a wife, and dying left no offspring.
20Tuh oasr tamulel itkosr, ac el su matu el payuk nwe misa a wangin tulik natul.
21The second took her, and died, leaving no children behind him. The third likewise;
21Na el se akluo el eis katinmas sac kial, ac el oayapa misa a wangin tulik natul. Sikyak ouinge pac nu sin el su aktolu,
22and the seven took her and left no children. Last of all the woman also died.
22oayapa tamulel wial ah nufon. Kewana marut nu sin katinmas sac, ac elos nukewa misa wangin tulik natulos. Na tok, katinmas sac oayapa misa.
23In the resurrection, when they rise, whose wife will she be of them? For the seven had her as a wife.”
23Ke len in sifil moulyak lun mwet nukewa, na katinmas sac ac fah ma kien su, ke tamulel itkosr ah kewa tuh payuk sel ah?”
24Jesus answered them, “Isn’t this because you are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God?
24Jesus el topuk ac fahk, “Kowos arulana tafongla! Ac kowos etu lah efu? Ma ke kowos tia etu ke Ma Simusla ku ke ku lun God.
25For when they will rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.
25Tuh ke mwet misa uh ac sifil moulyak, elos ac oana lipufan inkusrao, ac elos ac tia payuk.
26But about the dead, that they are raised, haven’t you read in the book of Moses about the Bush, how God spoke to him, saying, ‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’?
26Ac funu ke moulyak lun mwet misa, ya kowos soenna rit in book lal Moses ke ma sikyak ke e se firir in kupo sac? Simla mu God El fahk nu sel Moses ouinge, ‘Nga God lal Abraham, God lal Isaac, ac God lal Jacob.’
27He is not the God of the dead, but of the living. You are therefore badly mistaken.”
27Kalmeya pa El God lun mwet moul, ac El tia God lun mwet misa. Kowos arulana tafongla!”
28One of the scribes came and heard them questioning together, and knowing that he had answered them well, asked him, “Which commandment is the greatest of all?”
28Ac sie sin mwet luti Ma Sap el wi muta we, ac lohng ke elos asiyuki. El liye tuh arulana wo top lal Jesus nu sin mwet Sadducee, na el kalukyang nu yorol ke sie mwe siyuk ac fahk, “Pia ma sap su yohk oemeet ke Ma Sap uh?”
29Jesus answered, “The greatest is: ‘Hear, Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.
29Jesus el topuk ac fahk, “Ma Sap se ma yohk emeet pa inge: ‘Lohng, O Israel. Leum God lasr, El God sefanna.
30You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ This is the first commandment.
30Ac kom fah lungse Leum God lom ke insiom kewa, ac ke ngunum kewa, ac ke nunkom kewa, ac ke ku lom kewa.’
31The second is like this: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”
31Ac ma sap se akluo pa inge: ‘Kom fah lungse mwet tulan lom oana ke kom lungse kom sifacna.’ Wangin sie pac ma sap yohk liki ma luo inge.”
32The scribe said to him, “Truly, teacher, you have said well that he is one, and there is none other but he;
32Na mwet luti sac fahk nu sin Jesus, “Pwaye sum, Mwet Luti! Kom fahk suwohs, Leum God El mukena pa God, ac wangin pac sie god saya.
33and to love him with all the heart, with all the understanding, all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbor as himself, is more important than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
33Ac mwet se enenu in lungse God ke insial kewa, ke nunkal kewa, ac ke ku lal kewa; ac el enenu pac in lungse mwet tulan lal oana ke el lungse el sifacna. Wo in akos ma sap luo inge liki na in kisakin kosro fin loang uh, ku oru pac kutu mwe kisa saya nu sin God.”
34When Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, “You are not far from God’s Kingdom.” No one dared ask him any question after that.
34Ac ke Jesus el liye tuh el topuk suwohs, el fahk nu sel, “Kom tiana loesla liki Tokosrai lun God.” Tukun ma inge, wangin mwet pulaik in sifil siyuk kutena ma sel.
35Jesus responded, as he taught in the temple, “How is it that the scribes say that the Christ is the son of David?
35Ke Jesus el luti in Tempul, el srukak kusen siyuk se inge: “Fuka tuh mwet luti Ma Sap elos fahk mu Christ el wen natul David?
36For David himself said in the Holy Spirit, ‘The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies the footstool of your feet.”’
36Ngun Mutal tuh akkaskasyal David, ac el fahk ouinge: ‘Leum God El tuh fahk nu sin Leum luk: Muta siskuk layot Nwe ke nga filiya mwet lokoalok lom ye niom.’
37Therefore David himself calls him Lord, so how can he be his son?” The common people heard him gladly.
37David el sifacna pangnol ‘Leum’; na fuka tuh Christ elan wen natul David?” Oasr sie un mwet na pus su engan in lohng luti lal Jesus.
38In his teaching he said to them, “Beware of the scribes, who like to walk in long robes, and to get greetings in the marketplaces,
38Ac ke el lotelos, el fahk, “Liyekowosyang liki mwet luti Ma Sap, su nokomang nuknuk loeloes ke elos fufahsryesr inmasrlon mwet uh, ac kena tuh mwet uh in akfulatyalos ac paingulos ke nien kuka;
39and to get the best seats in the synagogues and the best places at feasts,
39su sulela nien muta fulat in iwen lolngok ac acn ma wo emeet ke pacl in kufwa.
40those who devour widows’ houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”
40Elos aklalfonye katinmas ac pisrala ma lalos, ac oayapa oru pre loeloes lalos mwe na lumah. Ke ma inge ac fah akyokyeyuk mwe kai nu selos in arulana upa!”
41Jesus sat down opposite the treasury and saw how the multitude cast money into the treasury. Many who were rich cast in much.
41Ke Jesus el muta apkuran nu ke nien eisani mani in Tempul, el tuni ke mwet uh ac filiya mani lalos uh. Mwet kasrup puspis elos filiya mani na yohk.
42A poor widow came and she cast in two small brass coins, which equal a quadrans coin.
42Na sie katinmas su sukasrup el tuku ac filiya luo ipin mani srisrik, sununna cent srusra se.
43He called his disciples to himself and said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, this poor widow gave more than all those who are giving into the treasury,
43Na Jesus el pangonma mwet tumal lutlut ac fahk nu selos, “Pwayena nga fahk nu suwos, mwe sang ma katinmas sukasrup se inge el filiya in nien mani uh arulana yohk liki mwe sang lun mwet ngia nukewa.
44for they all gave out of their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, gave all that she had to live on.”
44Tuh elos nukewa filiya ma elos srela liki ma puspis lalos, a el, el nwe sukasrup, el sang ma lal nukewa, aok nufon ma oasr yorol.”
