K. Jezus padora vasalu yudiņssērdzeigū.
1 Kad (Jezus) sabatā īgōja vīna īvārojama farizeja mōjā maizes āstu, tī Jū smaļki nūvārōja. 2 Un raug, Jō prīškā beja vīns yudiņssērdzeigs cylvāks. 3 Jezus jautōja nu lykuma zynōtōjim un farizejim saceidams: Vai breivi ir sabatā dareit vasalu, vai nē? 4 Tī klusēja. Tad Jys pajēmis, padareja tū vasalu un aizsyuteja prūjom. 5 Un tim saceja: Jo kuram nu jums vērss vai ezeļs īkrystu okā, vai tad navylktu tō sabata dīnā ōrā? 6 Uz tū jī navarēja nikō atbiļdēt.
Vītas ījimšonas vīseibōs.
7 Radzādams, ka īlyugtī ceņšās ījimt pyrmōs vītas, Jys pasaceja tim nōkušū pīleidzeibu: 8 Jo tevi kas īlyugtu kōzōs, tad nasasēst pyrmajā vītā, ka, laikam, nabyutu īlyugts kaids par tevi cīneigōks. 9 Cytaiž tys, kas jyusus obejus īlyudze, var, pīgōjis pi tevis, pasaceit: Dūd vītu šytam. Tad tev aizkaunātam vajadzēs ījimt pādejū vītu. 10 Jo tevi īlyudz, tad aizgōjis lobōk atsasēst pādejā vītā, lai atgōjis īlyudzējs tev saceitu: Draugs, raunīs augšōk. Tad tev byus gūds pret visim tim, kas ar tevi reizē sēd pi golda. 11 Tadei ikvīns, kas sevi augstynoj, byus pazamōts, kas sevi zamynoj, byus paaugstynōts.
Vīseibōs jōaicynoj nabogi.
12 Tad Jys saceja ari tam, kas Jū beja īlyudzis: Jo tu sareikoj pusdīnas vai vakareņas, tad nalyudz ni sovu draugu, ni sovu brōļu, ni sovu radinīku, ni ari bogōtūs kaimiņu; cytaiž jī īlyugs tevi un tu sajimsi sovu atmoksu. 13 Jo tu sareikoj maļteiti, tod īlyudz nabogus, krūpļus, slymus un oklus, 14 un tu byusi svēteigs, jo tim navā, ar kū tev atleidzēt. Gon tys byus atleidzāts taisneigūs augšamceļšonā.
Pīleidzeiba par maļteiti.
15 Bet vīns nu tim, kas ar Jū reizē beja pi golda, tū izdzērdis, Jam saceja: Svēteigs tys, kas jam daleibu pi maļteites Dīva vaļsteibā. 16 Tad Jys tam saceja: Kaids cylvāks, sareikōjis maļteiti, īlyudze daudzejūs (jimt daleibu). 17 Maļteitei sōcūtīs, izsyuteja sovu sulaini, lai īlyugtajim pasaceitu: Jau vyss ir sagatavōts, ejit. 18 Bet visi cyts pēc cyta sōce atsarunōt. Pyrmais saceja: Es nūpērku dryvu, un maņ jōīt tōs apsavārtu. Lyudzu īskaiteit mani par atvaiņōtu. 19 Ūtrs saceja: Es nūpērku pīcus pōrus vēršu, un jōīt tūs izmēginōtu. Lyudzu tevis īskaiti mani par atvaiņōtu. 20 Cyts otkon saceja: Es pajēmu sīvu, un tōpēc navaru aizīt. 21 Atsagrīzis atpakaļ, kolps tū pastōsteja sovam kungam. Tad saiminīks, aizdusmōts, sovam kolpam saceja: Ej tyuleņ uz piļsātas īlom un gatvem un sasauc šur nabogus, krūpļus, klybūs un oklūs. 22 Kungs, īsasauce kolps, vyss ir izdareits, kai pavēlēji, bet vēļ palīk breivas vītas. 23 Un Kungs kolpam saceja: Izej uz lelcelim un sātmolom un pīspīd tūs atīt, lai muna mōja byutu pylna. 24 Un Es jums soku, ka nivīns, kas beja īlyugts, munas maļteites nabaudeis.
Jezum pakaļ īšona.
25 Jam gōja pakaļ leli ļaužu pulki. Un Jys atsagrīzis uz tim saceja: 26 Jo kas atīt pi Manis, bet sova tāva, mōtes, brōļa, mōsu un ari sovas dvēseles naīneist, tys par Munu mōcekli navar byut. 27 Un kas sova krysta nanas un naīt Maņ pakaļ, tys Muns mōceklis byut navar.
28 Kas tad nu jums, grybādams uzceļt tūrni, pyrmōk nasasāst un naaprēkinoj izdavumu, vai tiks leidzekļu pabeigšonai? 29 Jo tys, īlicis pamatus, navarātu pabeigt, tod visi, kas tū radzātu, sōktu pīsasmīt 30 saceidami: Šytys cylvāks īsōce ceļt, bet navar pabeigt.
31 Vai ari kaids kēneņš, grybādams karōt pret ūtru kēneņu, pyrmōk nūsēdis naaprēkinōs, vai jys ar desmit tyukstūšom varēs nūsaturēt pretim tam, kas pret jū īt ar divdesmit tyukstūšom? 32 Jo nē, tad, koleidz tys vēļ ir tōli, syuteidams syutņus lyudz mīra. 33 Taipat ari ni vīns nu jums, kas naatsasoka nu vysa tō, kas jam ir, navar byut Muns mōceklis.
34 Sōļs ir loba līta; bet jo sōļs pazaudātu sovu syurumu, ar kū tad lai tū īsōlej? 35 Jys nader vairs ni zemei, ni māslim, — jū izmat ōrā. Kam auss ir dzērdēšonai, tys lai klausōs.
Jesus Heals a Sick Man
1 One Sabbath, Jesus was having dinner in the home of an important Pharisee, and everyone was carefully watching Jesus. 2 All of a sudden a man with swollen legs stood up in front of him. 3 Jesus turned and asked the Pharisees and the teachers of the Law of Moses, “Is it right to heal on the Sabbath?” 4 But they did not say a word.
Jesus took hold of the man. Then he healed him and sent him away. 5 Afterwards, Jesus asked the people, “If your son or ox falls into a well, wouldn't you pull him out at once, even on the Sabbath?” 6 There was nothing they could say.
How To Be a Guest
7 Jesus saw how the guests had tried to take the best seats. So he told them:
8 When you are invited to a wedding feast, don't sit in the best place. Someone more important may have been invited. 9 Then the one who invited you will come and say, “Give your place to this other guest!” You will be embarrassed and will have to sit in the worst place.
10 When you are invited to be a guest, go and sit in the worst place. Then the one who invited you may come and say, “My friend, take a better seat!” You will then be honored in front of all the other guests. 11 If you put yourself above others, you will be put down. But if you humble yourself, you will be honored.
12 Then Jesus said to the man who had invited him:
When you give a dinner or a banquet, don't invite your friends and family and relatives and rich neighbors. If you do, they will invite you in return, and you will be paid back. 13 When you give a feast, invite the poor, the paralyzed, the lame, and the blind. 14 They cannot pay you back. But God will bless you and reward you when his people rise from death.
The Great Banquet
(Matthew 22.1-10)15 After Jesus had finished speaking, one of the guests said, “The greatest blessing of all is to be at the banquet in God's kingdom!”
16 Jesus told him:
A man once gave a great banquet and invited a lot of guests. 17 When the banquet was ready, he sent a servant to tell the guests, “Everything is ready! Please come.”
18 One guest after another started making excuses. The first one said, “I bought some land, and I've got to look it over. Please excuse me.”
19 Another guest said, “I bought five teams of oxen, and I need to try them out. Please excuse me.”
20 Still another guest said, “I've just now married, and I can't be there.”
21 The servant told his master what happened, and the master became so angry he said, “Go as fast as you can to every street and alley in town! Bring in everyone who is poor or paralyzed or blind or lame.”
22 When the servant returned, he said, “Master, I've done what you told me, and there is still plenty of room for more people.”
23 His master then told him, “Go out along the back roads and make people come in, so my house will be full. 24 Not one of the guests I first invited will get even a bite of my food!”
Being a Disciple
(Matthew 10.37Matthew 38)25 Large crowds were walking along with Jesus, when he turned and said:
26 You cannot be my disciple, unless you love me more than you love your father and mother, your wife and children, and your brothers and sisters. You cannot follow me unless you love me more than you love your own life.
27 You cannot be my disciple unless you carry your own cross and follow me.
28 Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. What is the first thing you will do? Won't you sit down and figure out how much it will cost and if you have enough money to pay for it? 29 Otherwise, you will start building the tower, but not be able to finish. Then everyone who sees what is happening will laugh at you. 30 They will say, “You started building, but could not finish the job.”
31 What will a king do if he has only 10,000 soldiers to defend himself against a king who is about to attack him with 20,000 soldiers? Before he goes out to battle, won't he first sit down and decide if he can win? 32 If he thinks he won't be able to defend himself, he will send messengers and ask for peace while the other king is still a long way off. 33 So then, you cannot be my disciple unless you give away everything you own.
Salt and Light
(Matthew 5.13Mark 9.50)34 Salt is good, but if it no longer tastes like salt, how can it be made to taste salty again? 35 It is no longer good for the soil or even for the manure pile. People simply throw it out. If you have ears, pay attention!
