Kas ir lelōks dabasu vaļsteibā.
1 Tamā pošā stuņdē pīgōja pi Jezus mōcekli un vaicōja: Kas gon byus pats lelōkais dabasu vaļsteibā? 2 Jys, atsaucis klōt bārnu, nūvītōjis tū jūs vydā, 3 saceja: Patīši, Es jums soku, jo jyus naizalobōsit un natopsit kai bārni, dabasu vaļsteibā naīīsit. 4 Kurs pasazamōs tai, kai šytys bārns, tys ir tys pats lelōkais dabasu vaļsteibā. 5 Tai tad, kas munā vōrdā pījam vīnu šytaidu bārnu, tys Mani pījam. 6 Bet kas vīnu nu tim mozeņajim, kuri tic ikš Manis, īļaunōtu, tam byutu lobōk, jo jam pakōrtu koklā dzērnovu akmini, un jū īmastu jyuras dziļumā.
Īļaunōšonas.
7 Bāda pasauļam īļaunōšonu dēļ. Īļaunōšonom gon jōnōk, bet bāda tam cylvākam, caur kuru tōs nōk! 8 Jo tova rūka vai kōja tevi īļaunoj, cērt tū nūst un svīd prūjom nu sevis. Tev byus lobōk, jo tu klybs vai bez rūkas īīsi dzeivē, kai, turūt obejas rūkas un obejas kōjas, topsi īmasts myužeigajā gunī. 9 Jo tova acs tevi īļaunoj, izraun jū un svīd prūjom nu sevis. Tev byus lobōk, jo tu īīsi dzeivē ar vīnu aci, kai, turūt obejas acis, topsi īmasts eļnes gunī.
Dīva žālsirdeiba.
10 Sorgitēs, ka nanycynōtu nivīna nu šim mozajim; jo Es jums soku: ka jūs eņgeli dabasūs vysod redz muna dabasu Tāva vaigu. 11 (Cylvāka Dāls tadei ir nōcis izpesteit tūs, kas gōja zudumā.)
12 Kai jums līkās? Jo cylvākam, kam ir symts vušku, un vīna nu tom aizamaļdeitu, vai tad jys napamastu kolnūs tōs deveņdesmit deveņas un naītu aizamaļdejušōs maklātu? 13 Un jo tū atrostu, tad, patīši jums soku, jam byutu lelōka prīca nu tōs vīnas kai nu naaizamaļdejušajom deveņdesmit deveņom. 14 Tai pat ari jyusu dabasu Tāvs nagrib, ka kaids nu šim mozajim pazustu.
Pōrsorgōšona.
15 Un jo tovs brōļs pret tevi sagrākoj, ej un pōrsorgoj jū tikai jyusu diveju klōtbyutnē. Jo jys paklauseis, esi sovu brōli īgivis. 16 Jo tevis napaklauseis, tad pajem leidza ar sevi vēļ vīnu vai divejus, lai vyss tyktu nūkōrtōts caur diveju vai treju līcinīku vōrdu. 17 Jo ari tūs napaklauseitu, pasok Bazneicai. Jo ari Bazneicas napaklauseitu, lai tad byus tev taids, kai pogōns un muitinīks.
18 Patīši, Es jums soku, kū sasīsit vērs zemes, tys byus sasīts ari dabasūs; un kū izraiseisit vērs zemes, tys byus izraiseits ari dabasūs.
19 Otkon soku jums, jo divi nu jums vērs zemes vīnprōteigi lyugs kaut kō, tū jim muns debeseigais Tāvs pīškērs. 20 Jo kur divi vai trejs munā vōrdā ir sagōjuši, Tur Es asmu jūs vydā.
Ļaunais kolps.
21 Tad, pīgōjis pi Jō, Pīters vaicōja: Kungs, cik reižu ir jōatlaiž sovam brōļam, kad jys mani byus apvaiņōjis? Vai leidz septeņom reizem? 22 Jezus tam atbiļdēja: Es tev nasoku: leidz septeņom, bet leidz septeņdesmit reižu septeņom.
23 Tōpēc dabasu vaļsteiba ir pīleidzynojama cylvākam kēneņam, kurs gribēja nūsarēkinōt ar sovim koļpim. 24 Ka jys īsōce vest nūrēkinu, atvede pi jō vīnu (porōdnīku), kurs beja jam desmit tyukstūšu talentu porōdā. 25 Un, ka jam nabeja nu kō samoksōt, kungs pavēlēja pōrdūt jū pati, jō sīvu, jō bārnus un vysu, kas vīn jam beja un samoksōt. 26 Kolps, pakritis pi jō kōjom, lyudze saceidams: Kungs, esi maņ pacīteigs, un tev vysu samoksōšu. 27 Kungs apsažālōja par tū kolpu un jū palaide, un atlaide tū, kū jys beja porōdā.
28 Bet tys kolps, izgōjis ōrā, īraudzeja vīnu nu sovim bīdrim, kas jam beja porōdā symts denaru. Un sakēris tū, žņaudze, saceidams: Samoksoj maņ porōdu. 29 Bīdris, pakritis pi jō kōjom, lyudzēs: Esi maņ pacīteigs, un es tev samoksōšu (vysu). 30 Tūmār jys nagribēja, bet nūgōjis lyka tū īmest cītumā, koleidz samoksōs porōdu. 31 Tū radzādami, citi koļpi ļūti nūskuma un aizgōjuši pastōsteja sovam kungam vysu, kas beja nūticis. 32 Tad kungs lyka pasaukt jū pi sevis un jam saceja: Ļaunais kolps, es tev atlaižu vysu, kū vīn beji porōdā, jo manis lyudzi. 33 Vai gon tev nabeja jōapsažāloj par sovu bīdri, kai es par tevi apsažālōju? 34 Kungs aizadusmōjis, atdeve jū bendem, koleidz nasamoksōs vysa, kū vīn jam beja vaineigs.
35 Tai pat ari muns dabasu Tāvs padareis jums, jo jyus nu sirds naatlaissit sovam brōļam.
Who Is the Greatest?
(Mark 9.33-37Luke 9.46-48)1 At that time the disciples came to Jesus, asking, “Who is the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven?”
2 So Jesus called a child to come and stand in front of them, 3 and said, “I assure you that unless you change and become like children, you will never enter the Kingdom of heaven. 4 The greatest in the Kingdom of heaven is the one who humbles himself and becomes like this child. 5 And whoever welcomes in my name one such child as this, welcomes me.
Temptations to Sin
(Mark 9.42-48Luke 17.1Luke 2)6 “If anyone should cause one of these little ones to lose his faith in me, it would be better for that person to have a large millstone tied around his neck and be drowned in the deep sea. 7 How terrible for the world that there are things that make people lose their faith! Such things will always happen—but how terrible for the one who causes them!
8 “If your hand or your foot makes you lose your faith, cut it off and throw it away! It is better for you to enter life without a hand or a foot than to keep both hands and both feet and be thrown into the eternal fire. 9 And if your eye makes you lose your faith, take it out and throw it away! It is better for you to enter life with only one eye than to keep both eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell.
The Parable of the Lost Sheep
(Luke 15.3-7)10 “See that you don't despise any of these little ones. Their angels in heaven, I tell you, are always in the presence of my Father in heaven.
12 “What do you think a man does who has one hundred sheep and one of them gets lost? He will leave the other ninety-nine grazing on the hillside and go and look for the lost sheep. 13 When he finds it, I tell you, he feels far happier over this one sheep than over the ninety-nine that did not get lost. 14 In just the same way your Father in heaven does not want any of these little ones to be lost.
When Someone Sins
15 “If your brother sins against you, go to him and show him his fault. But do it privately, just between yourselves. If he listens to you, you have won your brother back. 16 But if he will not listen to you, take one or two other persons with you, so that ‘every accusation may be upheld by the testimony of two or more witnesses,’ as the scripture says. 17 And if he will not listen to them, then tell the whole thing to the church. Finally, if he will not listen to the church, treat him as though he were a pagan or a tax collector.
Prohibiting and Permitting
18 “And so I tell all of you: what you prohibit on earth will be prohibited in heaven, and what you permit on earth will be permitted in heaven.
19 “And I tell you more: whenever two of you on earth agree about anything you pray for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven. 20 For where two or three come together in my name, I am there with them.”
The Parable of the Unforgiving Servant
21 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, if my brother keeps on sinning against me, how many times do I have to forgive him? Seven times?”
22 “No, not seven times,” answered Jesus, “but seventy times seven, 23 because the Kingdom of heaven is like this. Once there was a king who decided to check on his servants' accounts. 24 He had just begun to do so when one of them was brought in who owed him millions of dollars. 25 The servant did not have enough to pay his debt, so the king ordered him to be sold as a slave, with his wife and his children and all that he had, in order to pay the debt. 26 The servant fell on his knees before the king. ‘Be patient with me,’ he begged, ‘and I will pay you everything!’ 27 The king felt sorry for him, so he forgave him the debt and let him go.
28 “Then the man went out and met one of his fellow servants who owed him a few dollars. He grabbed him and started choking him. ‘Pay back what you owe me!’ he said. 29 His fellow servant fell down and begged him, ‘Be patient with me, and I will pay you back!’ 30 But he refused; instead, he had him thrown into jail until he should pay the debt. 31 When the other servants saw what had happened, they were very upset and went to the king and told him everything. 32 So he called the servant in. ‘You worthless slave!’ he said. ‘I forgave you the whole amount you owed me, just because you asked me to. 33 You should have had mercy on your fellow servant, just as I had mercy on you.’ 34 The king was very angry, and he sent the servant to jail to be punished until he should pay back the whole amount.”
35 And Jesus concluded, “That is how my Father in heaven will treat every one of you unless you forgive your brother from your heart.”
