1 Un nūtyka, ka Jezus, pabeidzis sovim divpadsmit mōceklim dūt pamōceibas, aizgōja nu turīnes tōļōk mōceitu un sludynōtu jūs mīstūs.
Jōņa Kristeitōja syutni pi K. Jezus.
2 Tad Jōņs, izdzērdis cītumā par Kristus dorbim, nūsyuteja divejus nu sovim mōceklim, 3 lai pavaicōtu: Vai Tu esi Tys, kam ir jōatnōk, vai mums jōgaida cyts. 4 Jezus jim atbiļdēja: Ejte un pasokit Jōņam tū, kū dzēržat un radzat: 5 oklī redz, klibī staigōj, špitaleigī palīk teiri, kūrlī dzērd, myrušī pīsaceļ un nabogim teik sludynōts Evangelijs. 6 Un svēteigs ir tys, kurs nu Manis naīsaļaunoj!
7 Pēc jūs aizīšonas, Jezus sōce runōt ļaužu pulkim par Jōni: Kō vārtūs izgōjat tūksnesī? Vai nīdres, kuru vējs lūka? 8 Bet kō tad vārtūs izgōjat? Vai meikstōs drēbēs gārbta cylvāka? Raug, kuri nosoj meikstas drēbes, dzeivoj kēneņu pilīs. 9 Bet kō gon jyus izgōjat? Pravīša vārtūs? — Jā, Es jums soku: pōrōka par pravīti. 10 Jys ir tadei tys, par kuru ir raksteits:
Raug, Es syutu Tova vaiga prīškā sovu eņgeli,
kurs sagatavōs Tev ceļu.
11 Patīši, Es jums soku: Nivīns lelōks par Jōni Kristeitōju nu sīvītes nav dzimis; bet, tūmār, pats mozōkais dabasu vaļsteibā par jū ir lelōks. 12 Nu Jōņa Kristeitōja dīnom leidz šam laikam dabasu vaļsteiba cīš pōrspāku, un pōrvarātōji jū laupa. 13 Visi tadei pravīši un lykums pravītōja leidz Jōņam. 14 Un, jo gribit pīkrist, jys ir tys Eliass, kam beja jōnōk. 15 Kam ir auss dzērdēšonai, lai klausās.
K. Jezus pōrmat naticeigajim.
16 Kam gon lai Es pīleidzynoju šytū paaudzi? Jei ir leidzeiga bārnim, kuri sādādami uz tērga laukuma, sauc sovejim saceidami: 17 Mes jums stabulējom, bet jyus nadejojat; mes vaimaņōjom, bet jyus naraudōjot.
18 Beja atgōjis Jōņs: ni jys ēde, ni dzēre, bet jī saceja: jamā ir naškeists gors. 19 Atgōja Cylvāka Dāls, — ād un dzer, bet jī soka: Raug, cylvāks, kas mīļoj daudzi ēst un veinu dzērt; jys ir muitinīku un grēcinīku draugs! Un šei gudreiba nu jūs dorbim tyka attaisnōta.
20 Tad Jys sōce pōrmest mīstim, kuramūs beja nūtykuse lelōkō breinumu daļa, ka navaidēja par grākim.
21 Bāda, tev, Koradzain, bāda tev, Betsaida! Jo Tyrā un Sydonā byutu nūtykuši tī breinumi, kas pi jums nūtyka, jau seņ jī maisūs un palnūs byutu vaidējuši par grākim. 22 Tai tad, Es jums soku: Tīsas dīnā Tyrai un Sydonai byus vīgļōk, na kai jums.
23 Un tu, Kafarnaum, vai na leidz dabasim esi paaugstynōts? — Tu nūsleidēsi leidz eļnei. Jo Sodomā byutu nūtykuši tī breinumi, kas tevī nūtyka, jei dzeivōtu vēļ šudiņ. 24 Tai tad, Es jums soku: Sodomas apvydam tīsas dīnā byus vīgļōk, na kai tev.
Pateiceibas lyugšona.
25 Tamā laikā Jezus, jimdams vōrdu, saceja:
Tāvs, dabasu un zemes Kungs,
Es Tevi slaveju,
ka Tu šytū esi paslēpis pret gudrim un prōteigim,
bet atklōjis vīnkōršim.
26 Jā, Tāvs, Tev tai ir labpaticis.
27 Muns Tāvs Maņ vysu ir atdevis,
un nikas cyts napazeist Dāla, vīneigi Tāvs,
un nikas napazeist Tāva, vīneigi Dāls,
un tys, kam Dāls tū gribēs atklōt.
28 Ejte pi Manis visi,
kas cīšat vōrgus, un apgryutynōti esit,
un Es jums atvīglynōšu.
29 Jemit munu jyugu uz sevis
un mōcotēs nu Manis,
Es tadei asmu lānprōteigs un pazemeigu, sirdi;
un jyus atrassit sovai dvēselei mīru.
30 Muns jyugs tadei ir maigs
un muna nosta ir vīgla.
The Messengers from John the Baptist
(Luke 7.18-35)1 When Jesus finished giving these instructions to his twelve disciples, he left that place and went off to teach and preach in the towns near there.
2 When John the Baptist heard in prison about the things that Christ was doing, he sent some of his disciples to him. 3 “Tell us,” they asked Jesus, “are you the one John said was going to come, or should we expect someone else?”
4 Jesus answered, “Go back and tell John what you are hearing and seeing: 5 the blind can see, the lame can walk, those who suffer from dreaded skin diseases are made clean, the deaf hear, the dead are brought back to life, and the Good News is preached to the poor. 6 How happy are those who have no doubts about me!”
7 While John's disciples were leaving, Jesus spoke about him to the crowds: “When you went out to John in the desert, what did you expect to see? A blade of grass bending in the wind? 8 What did you go out to see? A man dressed up in fancy clothes? People who dress like that live in palaces! 9 Tell me, what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes indeed, but you saw much more than a prophet. 10 For John is the one of whom the scripture says: ‘God said, I will send my messenger ahead of you to open the way for you.’ 11 I assure you that John the Baptist is greater than anyone who has ever lived. But the one who is least in the Kingdom of heaven is greater than John. 12 From the time John preached his message until this very day the Kingdom of heaven has suffered violent attacks, and violent men try to seize it. 13 Until the time of John all the prophets and the Law of Moses spoke about the Kingdom; 14 and if you are willing to believe their message, John is Elijah, whose coming was predicted. 15 Listen, then, if you have ears!
16 “Now, to what can I compare the people of this day? They are like children sitting in the marketplace. One group shouts to the other, 17 ‘We played wedding music for you, but you wouldn't dance! We sang funeral songs, but you wouldn't cry!’ 18 When John came, he fasted and drank no wine, and everyone said, ‘He has a demon in him!’ 19 When the Son of Man came, he ate and drank, and everyone said, ‘Look at this man! He is a glutton and wine drinker, a friend of tax collectors and other outcasts!’ God's wisdom, however, is shown to be true by its results.”
The Unbelieving Towns
(Luke 10.13-15)20 The people in the towns where Jesus had performed most of his miracles did not turn from their sins, so he reproached those towns. 21 “How terrible it will be for you, Chorazin! How terrible for you too, Bethsaida! If the miracles which were performed in you had been performed in Tyre and Sidon, the people there would have long ago put on sackcloth and sprinkled ashes on themselves, to show that they had turned from their sins! 22 I assure you that on the Judgment Day God will show more mercy to the people of Tyre and Sidon than to you! 23 And as for you, Capernaum! Did you want to lift yourself up to heaven? You will be thrown down to hell! If the miracles which were performed in you had been performed in Sodom, it would still be in existence today! 24 You can be sure that on the Judgment Day God will show more mercy to Sodom than to you!”
Come to Me and Rest
(Luke 10.21Luke 22)25 At that time Jesus said, “Father, Lord of heaven and earth! I thank you because you have shown to the unlearned what you have hidden from the wise and learned. 26 Yes, Father, this was how you were pleased to have it happen.
27 “My Father has given me all things. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.
28 “Come to me, all of you who are tired from carrying heavy loads, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke and put it on you, and learn from me, because I am gentle and humble in spirit; and you will find rest. 30 For the yoke I will give you is easy, and the load I will put on you is light.”
