¹And he said also unto the disciples, There was a certain rich man, who had a steward; and the same was accused unto him that he was wasting his goods.

¹O Jesus mai phendia peske slugenge, "Iek manush barvalo sas les iek manush kai lelas sama katar lesko kher ai phuvia; ai andek dies vari kon phendia leske ke o manush kai lelas sama katar lesko kher ai phuvia zidilas pesko love.

²And he called him, and said unto him, What is this that I hear of thee? render the account of thy stewardship; for thou canst be no longer steward.

²O gazda akhardia les, ai phendia leske, "So ashunav pa tute? Phen mange sar kerdian le dielensa kai thodem tu te les sama; ke nashti mai mekav tu te le sama katar murho kher vai phuvia."

³And the steward said within himself, What shall I do, seeing that my lord taketh away the stewardship from me? I have not strength to dig; to beg I am ashamed.

³"O manush kai lelas sama katar o kher ai phuvia phenelas ande peste, "So te kerav akana? Kai murho gazda chi mai mekel ma te lav sama katar lesko kher ai phuvia: Nashti lasharav e phuv; lazhav mange te mangav zhutimos.

⁴I am resolved what to do, that, when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.

⁴Zhanav so kerava, kana gonila ma murho gazda, avela mange vortacha te primina ma pe lenge khera."

⁵And calling to him each one of his lord's debtors, he said to the first, How much owest thou unto my lord?

⁵Antunchi akhardia iek po iek sa kukulen kai kamenas vari so peske gazdaske, ai phendia le pervoneske, "Sode kames murhe gazdaske?"

⁶And he said, A hundred measures of oil. And he said unto him, Take thy bond, and sit down quickly and write fifty.

⁶"Iek shel bidoia vuloi," phendia leske. Ai wo phendia leske, "Le cho tiketo, sigo besh tele, ai ramosar panvardesh."

⁷Then said he to another, And how much owest thou? And he said, A hundred measures of wheat. He saith unto him, Take thy bond, and write fourscore.

⁷Porme phendia avreske, "Sode kames tu?" Phendia, "Iek shel musuri jiv. Ai wo phendia leske, "Le cho tiketo, ai ramosar oxtovardesh."

⁸And his lord commended the unrighteous steward because he had done wisely: for the sons of this world are for their own generation wiser than the sons of the light.

⁸Antunchi o manush barvalo phendia ka o bezexalo manush kai lelas sama katar lesko kher ai phuvia, "Kerdia mishto," Ke le manush anda kadia lumia si ande lengi vitsa mai gojaver de sar le manush la vediaraki.

⁹And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends by means of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when it shall fail, they may receive you into the eternal tabernacles.

⁹"Ai me phenav tumenge, keren tumenge vortacha le barvalimasa kadala phuviako, saxke, kana chi mai avela tume, won sai primina tume andek kher kai chi mai getolpe.

¹⁰He that is faithful in a very little is faithful also in much: and he that is unrighteous in a very little is unrighteous also in much.

¹⁰Kodo kai si lasho andel tsinorhe dieli si lasho vi andel bare; ai kodo kai nai lasho andel tsinorhe dieli vi andel bare nai lasho.

¹¹If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true [riches]?

¹¹Te chi sanas lasho le barvalimasa la lumiako, kon jinel pe tute le barvalimasa chacho?

¹²And if ye have not been faithful in that which is another's, who will give you that which is your own?

¹²Ai te chi sanas lasho andel kolavreske dieli, kon dela tume so si tumaro?

¹³No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

¹³Chi iek sluga nashti podail duie gazdan; ke wo gretsola iek ai leske drago o kolaver; astardiola ka iek, vai vurhitsila le kolavres. Nashti podais le Devles ai le love."

¹⁴And the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, heard all these things; and they scoffed at him.

¹⁴Le Farizeanuria ashunde so phendia O Jesus, ai marenas mui lestar ke lenge drago sas le love.

¹⁵And he said unto them, Ye are they that justify yourselves in the sight of men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is exalted among men is an abomination in the sight of God.

¹⁵O Jesus phendia lenge, "Tume roden te kerdion vorta angal manush, numa O Del zhanel tumare ile; ke so miazol baro le manushenge nai kanch angla Del.

¹⁶The law and the prophets [were] until John: from that time the gospel of the kingdom of God is preached, and every man entereth violently into it.

¹⁶O zakono le Mosesoske ai o ramomos le profetonge ashile zhi kai vriama le Iovanoske o baptisto; de katar kodia vriama e lashi viasta pa e amperetsia le Devleski phendi la, ai swako zumavel peska zorasa te del andre.

¹⁷But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one tittle of the law to fall.

¹⁷Mai vushoro o cheri ai e phuv te naken, de sar e mai tsinorhi vorba kai si ando zakono te nakhel (te faltil).

¹⁸Every one that putteth away his wife, and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and he that marrieth one that is put away from a husband committeth adultery.

¹⁸Kon godi kai dela drom peska rhomnia ai ansurilpe avriasa, kerdia kurvia; ai kon godi ansurilape zhuvliasa kai meklia la, lako rhom pale kerdia kurvia.

¹⁹Now there was a certain rich man, and he was clothed in purple and fine linen, faring sumptuously every day:

¹⁹"Sas ek manush barvalo, kai vuriarelaspe andel mai shukar tsalia ai le mai kuchi, ai swako dies sas les shukar traio ai xalas lasho xabe.

²⁰and a certain beggar named Lazarus was laid at his gate, full of sores,

²⁰Sas iek manush chorho kai busholas Lazarus, beshelas pasha lesko vudar, peske pugniansa kai sas pe leste.

²¹and desiring to be fed with the [crumbs] that fell from the rich man's table; yea, even the dogs come and licked his sores.

²¹Kamlino te xal le kozhi kai perenas pai skafidi le barvaleske; ai inker le zhukel mai avenas te den la shibasa pa leske pugnia.

²²And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and that he was carried away by the angels into Abraham's bosom: and the rich man also died, and was buried.

²²O chorho manush mulo, ai le angeluria angerde les andel vas le Abrahamoske. Vi o barvalo mulo, ai groposarde les.

²³And in Hades he lifted up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

²³Ai ando iado wo vazdia leske iakha, ai de dural diklia le Abrahomos ai o Lazarus sas pasha leste.

²⁴And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am in anguish in this flame.

²⁴O barvalo manush tsipisardia, "Murho dat, Abraham, av tuke mila anda mande, ai trades o Lazarus te chindarel o gor peske naiesko ando pai, ai te chindarel murhi shib; ke chinuiv zurales ande kadia iag!"

²⁵But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and Lazarus in like manner evil things: but now here he is comforted and thou art in anguish.

²⁵Numa o Abraham phendia, "Murho shav, seres tu ke sas tu lashimos ande cho traio pe phuv, ai o Lazarus chinuisardia pe phuv; akana wo raduimelo ai tu chinuis."

²⁶And besides all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, that they that would pass from hence to you may not be able, and that none may cross over from thence to us.

²⁶Inker si mashkar amende ai mashkar tumende iek bari gropa, saxke kukula kai mangen te nakhen katsar, tumende vai tumendar, amende nashtin.

²⁷And he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house;

²⁷Porme o barvalo manush phendia, "Rhugiv ma tute, murho dat, O Abraham, trade o Lazarus ando kher murho dadesko:

²⁸for I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.

²⁸Ke si ma pansh phral; te mothol lenge te arakhenpe, te na aresen vi won ande parha."

²⁹But Abraham saith, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.

²⁹O Abraham phendia leske, "Si le o ramomos le Mosesosko ai le profetongo te phenen lenge, ashunen lende." Ai o barvalo manush phendia,

³⁰And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one go to them from the dead, they will repent.

³⁰"Nichi, murho dat, Abraham; numa te zhala vari kon andal mule karing lende, antunchi keinape."

³¹And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, if one rise from the dead.

³¹Numa o Abraham phendia leske, "Te na ashunena so mothol o Moses ai le profeturia, won chi pachana vi te zhuvindil vari kon andal mule."
