¹And he said unto the disciples, `It is impossible for the stumbling blocks not to come, but wo [to him] through whom they come;

¹ለደቀ መዛሙርቱም እንዲህ አለ። መሰናክል ግድ ሳይመጣ አይቀርም፥ ነገር ግን መሰናክሉን ለሚያመጣው ወዮለት፤

²it is more profitable to him if a weighty millstone is put round about his neck, and he hath been cast into the sea, than that he may cause one of these little ones to stumble.

²ከእነዚህ ከታናናሾች አንዱን ከማሰናከል ይልቅ የወፍጮ ድንጋይ በአንገቱ ታስሮ ወደ ባሕር ቢጣል ይጠቅመው ነበር።

³`Take heed to yourselves, and, if thy brother may sin in regard to thee, rebuke him, and if he may reform, forgive him,

³ለራሳችሁ ተጠንቀቁ። ወንድምህ ቢበድልህ ገሥጸው፥ ቢጸጸትም ይቅር በለው።

⁴and if seven times in the day he may sin against thee, and seven times in the day may turn back to thee, saying, I reform; thou shalt forgive him.`

⁴በቀንም ሰባት ጊዜ እንኳ ቢበድልህ በቀንም ሰባት ጊዜ። ተጸጸትሁ እያለ ወደ አንተ ቢመለስ፥ ይቅር በለው።

⁵And the apostles said to the Lord, `Add to us faith;`

⁵ሐዋርያትም ጌታን። እምነት ጨምርልን አሉት።

⁶and the Lord said, `If ye had faith as a grain of mustard, ye would have said to this sycamine, Be uprooted, and be planted in the sea, and it would have obeyed you.

⁶ጌታም አለ። የሰናፍጭ ቅንጣት የሚያህል እምነት ቢኖራችሁ፥ ይህን ሾላ። ተነቅለህ ወደ ባሕር ተተከል ብትሉት፥ ይታዘዝላችሁ ነበር።

⁷`But, who is he of you — having a servant ploughing or feeding — who, to him having come in out of the field, will say, Having come near, recline at meat?

⁷ከእናንተም የሚያርስ ወይም ከብትን የሚጠብቅ ባሪያ ያለው፥ ከእርሻ ሲመለስ። ወዲያው ቅረብና በማዕድ ተቀመጥ የሚለው ማን ነው?

⁸but will not [rather] say to him, Prepare what I may sup, and having girded thyself about, minister to me, till I eat and drink, and after these things thou shalt eat and drink?

⁸የምበላውን እራቴን አሰናዳልኝ፥ እስክበላና እስክጠጣ ድረስ ታጥቀህ አገልግለኝ፥ በኋላም አንተ ብላና ጠጣ የሚለው አይደለምን?

⁹Hath he favour to that servant because he did the things directed? I think not.

⁹ያንን ባሪያ ያዘዘውን ስላደረገ ያመሰግነዋልን?

¹⁰`So also ye, when ye may have done all the things directed you, say — We are unprofitable servants, because that which we owed to do — we have done.`

¹⁰እንዲሁ እናንተ ደግሞ የታዘዛችሁትን ሁሉ ባደረጋችሁ ጊዜ። የማንጠቅም ባሪያዎች ነን፥ ልናደርገው የሚገባንን አድርገናል በሉ።

¹¹And it came to pass, in his going on to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee,

¹¹ወደ ኢየሩሳሌምም ሲሄድ በገሊላና በሰማርያ መካከል አለፈ።

¹²and he entering into a certain village, there met him ten leprous men, who stood afar off,

¹²ወደ አንዲት መንደርም ሲገባ በሩቅ የቆሙት አሥር ለምጻሞች ተገናኙት፤

¹³and they lifted up the voice, saying, `Jesus, master, deal kindly with us;`

¹³እነርሱም እየጮኹ። ኢየሱስ ሆይ፥ አቤቱ፥ ማረን አሉ።

¹⁴and having seen [them], he said to them, `Having gone on, shew yourselves to the priests;` and it came to pass, in their going, they were cleansed,

¹⁴አይቶም። ሂዱ፥ ራሳችሁን ለካህናት አሳዩ አላቸው።

¹⁵and one of them having seen that he was healed did turn back, with a loud voice glorifying God,

¹⁵እነሆም፥ ሲሄዱ ነጹ። ከእነርሱም አንዱ እንደ ተፈወሰ ባየ ጊዜ በታላቅ ድምፅ እግዚአብሔርን እያከበረ ተመለሰ፥

¹⁶and he fell upon [his] face at his feet, giving thanks to him, and he was a Samaritan.

¹⁶እያመሰገነውም በእግሩ ፊት በግንባሩ ወደቀ፤ እርሱም ሳምራዊ ነበረ።

¹⁷And Jesus answering said, `Were not the ten cleansed, and the nine — where?

¹⁷ኢየሱስም መልሶ። አሥሩ አልነጹምን? ዘጠኙስ ወዴት አሉ?

¹⁸There were not found who did turn back to give glory to God, except this alien;`

¹⁸ከዚህ ከልዩ ወገን በቀር እግዚአብሔርን ሊያከብሩ የተመለሱ አልተገኙም አለ።

¹⁹and he said to him, `Having risen, be going on, thy faith hath saved thee.`

¹⁹እርሱንም። ተነሣና ሂድ፤ እምነትህ አድኖሃል አለው።

²⁰And having been questioned by the Pharisees, when the reign of God doth come, he answered them, and said, `The reign of God doth not come with observation;

²⁰ፈሪሳውያንም። የእግዚአብሔር መንግሥት መቼ ትመጣለች ብለው ቢጠይቁት፥ መልሶ። የእግዚአብሔር መንግሥት በመጠባበቅ አትመጣም፤

²¹nor shall they say, Lo, here; or lo, there; for lo, the reign of God is within you.`

²¹ደግሞም። እንኋት በዚህ ወይም። እንኋት በዚያ አይሉአትም። እነሆ፥ የእግዚአብሔር መንግሥት በመካከላችሁ ናትና አላቸው።

²²And he said unto his disciples, `Days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and ye shall not behold [it];

²²ለደቀ መዛሙርቱም እንዲህ አለ። ከሰው ልጅ ቀኖች አንዱን ልታዩ የምትመኙበት ወራት ይመጣል አታዩትምም።

²³and they shall say to you, Lo, here; or lo, there; ye may not go away, nor follow;

²³እነርሱም። እነሆ በዚህ፥ ወይም። እነሆ በዚያ ይሉአችኋል፤ አትሂዱ አትከተሉአቸውም።

²⁴for as the lightning that is lightening out of the one [part] under heaven, to the other part under heaven doth shine, so shall be also the Son of Man in his day;

²⁴መብረቅ በርቆ ከሰማይ በታች ካለ ከአንድ አገር ከሰማይ በታች ወዳለው ወደ ሌላ አገር እንደሚያበራ፥ የሰው ልጅ በቀኑ እንዲህ ይሆናል።

²⁵and first it behoveth him to suffer many things, and to be rejected by this generation.

²⁵አስቀድሞ ግን ብዙ መከራ እንዲቀበል ከዚህም ትውልድ እንዲጣል ይገባዋል።

²⁶`And, as it came to pass in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of Man;

²⁶በኖኅ ዘመንም እንደ ሆነ፥ በሰው ልጅ ዘመን ደግሞ እንዲሁ ይሆናል።

²⁷they were eating, they were drinking, they were marrying, they were given in marriage, till the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the deluge came, and destroyed all;

²⁷ኖኅ ወደ መርከብ እስከ ገባበት ቀን ድረስ፥ ይበሉና ይጠጡ ያገቡና ይጋቡም ነበር፥ የጥፋት ውኃም መጣ ሁሉንም አጠፋ።

²⁸in like manner also, as it came to pass in the days of Lot; they were eating, they were drinking, they were buying, they were selling, they were planting, they were building;

²⁸እንዲሁ በሎጥ ዘመን እንደ ሆነ፤ ይበሉ ይጠጡም ይገዙም ይሸጡም ይተክሉም ቤትም ይሠሩ ነበር፤

²⁹and on the day Lot went forth from Sodom, He rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed all.

²⁹ሎጥ ከሰዶም በወጣበት ቀን ግን ከሰማይ እሳትና ዲን ዘነበ ሁሉንም አጠፋ።

³⁰`According to these things it shall be, in the day the Son of Man is revealed;

³⁰የሰው ልጅ በሚገለጥበት ቀን እንዲሁ ይሆናል።

³¹in that day, he who shall be on the house top, and his vessels in the house, let him not come down to take them away; and he in the field, in like manner, let him not turn backward;

³¹በዚያም ቀን በሰገነት ያለ በቤቱ ያለውን ዕቃ ሊወስድ አይውረድ፥ እንዲሁም በእርሻ ያለ ወደ ኋላው አይመለስ።

³²remember the wife of Lot.

³²የሎጥን ሚስት አስቡአት።

³³Whoever may seek to save his life, shall lose it; and whoever may lose it, shall preserve it.

³³ነፍሱን ሊያድን የሚፈልግ ሁሉ ያጠፋታል፥ ነፍሱንም የሚያጠፋ ሁሉ በሕይወት ይጠብቃታል።

³⁴`I say to you, In that night, there shall be two men on one couch, the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left;

³⁴እላችኋለሁ፥ በዚያች ሌሊት ሁለት ሰዎች በአንድ አልጋ ይሆናሉ፤ አንዱ ይወሰዳል ሁለተኛውም ይቀራል።

³⁵two women shall be grinding at the same place together, the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left;

³⁵ሁለት ሴቶች በአንድ ወፍጮ ይፈጫሉ፤ አንዲቱ ትወሰዳለች ሁለተኛይቱም ትቀራለች።

³⁶two men shall be in the field, the one shall be taken, and the other left.`

³⁶ሁለት ሰዎች በእርሻ ይሆናሉ፤ አንዱ ይወሰዳል ሁለተኛውም ይቀራል።

³⁷And they answering say to him, `Where, sir?` and he said to them, `Where the body [is], there will the eagles be gathered together.`

³⁷መልሰውም። ጌታ ሆይ፥ ወዴት ነው? አሉት። እርሱም። ሥጋ ወዳለበት በዚያ አሞራዎች ይሰበሰባሉ አላቸው።
