¹He also spoke a parable to them that they must always pray, and not give up,

¹Si Ciise u tuso inay waajib ku tahay iyaga inay mar walba tukadaan oo aanay ka qalbi jabin, wuxuu iyaga kula hadlay masaal isagoo leh,

²saying, “There was a judge in a certain city who didn’t fear God, and didn’t respect man.

²Waxaa magaalo joogay xaakin aan Ilaah ka baqi jirin, ninnana aan danayn jirin.

³ A widow was in that city, and she often came to him, saying, ‘Defend me from my adversary!’

³Waxaana magaaladaas joogtay carmal ninkeedii ka dhintay, marar badanna way u timid, iyadoo ku leh, Cadowgayga iga xaq sii.

⁴ He wouldn’t for a while, but afterward he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God, nor respect man,

⁴Intii wakhti ah ayuu yeeli waayay, laakiin dabadeed wuxuu isku yidhi, In kastoo aanan Ilaah ka baqin, oo aanan ninna danayn,

⁵ yet because this widow bothers me, I will defend her, or else she will wear me out by her continual coming.’”

⁵weliba dhibta ay carmalkan i dhibayso aawadeed, waan xaq siin doonaa, si aanay marar badan iigu soo noqnoqon oo ii daalin.

⁶The Lord said, “Listen to what the unrighteous judge says.

⁶Markaasaa Rabbigu yidhi, Maqla wixii xaakinkii xaqa darnaa yidhi.

⁷ Won’t God avenge his chosen ones, who are crying out to him day and night, and yet he exercises patience with them?

⁷Ilaahna miyaanu xaq siin doonin kuwuu doortay oo habeen iyo maalinba u qayliya; oo miyaanu u dulqaadan doonin?

⁸ I tell you that he will avenge them quickly. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”

⁸Waxaan idinku leeyahay, Dhaqsoba wuu u xaq siin doonaa; hase ahaatee goortuu Wiilka Aadanahu yimaado, markaas rumaysad ma ka heli doonaa dhulka?

⁹He spoke also this parable to certain people who were convinced of their own righteousness, and who despised all others.

⁹Masaalkan ayuu kula hadlay qaar ismoodayay inay xaq yihiin oo kuwa kale quudhsaday.

¹⁰ “Two men went up into the temple to pray; one was a Pharisee, and the other was a tax collector.

¹⁰Laba nin ayaa tegey inay macbudka ku tukadaan; mid Farrisi buu ahaa, kan kalena cashuurqaade.

¹¹ The Pharisee stood and prayed to himself like this: ‘God, I thank you, that I am not like the rest of men, extortioners, unrighteous, adulterers, or even like this tax collector.

¹¹Farrisigii intuu istaagay ayuu waxyaalahan isugu tukaday, Ilaahow, waxaan kuugu mahad naqayaa inaanan ahayn sida nimanka kale oo wax dulma, iyo kuwa xaqa daran, iyo dhillayaasha, ama xataa sida cashuurqaadahan.

¹² I fast twice a week. I give tithes of all that I get.’

¹²Toddobaadkiiba laba kol ayaan soomaa, waxaan haysta oo dhanna toban meelood ayaan meel ka bixiyaa.

¹³ But the tax collector, standing far away, wouldn’t even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, a sinner!’

¹³Laakiin cashuurqaadihii meel fog ayuu ka istaagay, ma uuna doonaynin inuu indhihiisa cirka u qaado, laakiin laabtiisa ayuu garaacay isagoo leh, Ilaahow, ii naxariiso anigoo dembi leh.

¹⁴ I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted.”

¹⁴Waxaan idinku leeyahay, Kan iyo kii kale, kan baa gurigiisa tegey isagoo la caddeeyey inuu xaq yahay; waayo, mid kasta oo isa sarraysiiya waa la hoosaysiin doonaa, oo kii is-hoosaysiiyana waa la sarraysiin doonaa.

¹⁵They were also bringing their babies to him, that he might touch them. But when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them.

¹⁵Ilmo yaryar ayay u keeneen inuu taabto, laakiin goortii xertii aragtay, ayay canaanteen.

¹⁶Jesus summoned them, saying, “Allow the little children to come to me, and don’t hinder them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these.

¹⁶Laakiin Ciise ayaa u yeedhay oo ku yidhi, Ilmaha yaryar daaya, ha ii yimaadeene, hana diidina, waayo, kuwan oo kale ayaa ka mid ah boqortooyada Ilaah.

¹⁷ Most certainly, I tell you, whoever doesn’t receive the Kingdom of God like a little child, he will in no way enter into it.”

¹⁷Runtii waxaan idinku leeyahay, Ku alla kii aan boqortooyada Ilaah u aqbalin sida ilmo yar oo kale, meeshaas ma uu geli doono.

¹⁸A certain ruler asked him, saying, “Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”

¹⁸Taliye ayaa weyddiiyey isagoo leh, Macallin wanaagsanow, maxaan sameeyaa inaan nolosha weligeed ah dhaxlo?

¹⁹Jesus asked him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good, except one—God.

¹⁹Markaasaa Ciise ku yidhi, Maxaad iigu yeedhaysaa wanaagsanow? Mid wanaagsan ma jiro mid maahee, kaasuna waa Ilaah.

²⁰ You know the commandments: ‘Don’t commit adultery,’ ‘Don’t murder,’ ‘Don’t steal,’ ‘Don’t give false testimony,’ ‘Honor your father and your mother.’” Exodus 20:12-16; Deuteronomy 5:16-20

²⁰Qaynuunnada waad taqaan, Waa inaanad sinaysan, Waa inaanad qudh gooyn, Waa inaanad wax xadin, Waa inaanad marag been ah furin, Aabbahaa iyo hooyadaana maamuus.

²¹He said, “I have observed all these things from my youth up.”

²¹Markaasuu yidhi, Kuwaas oo dhan tan iyo yaraantaydii waan dhawray.

²²When Jesus heard these things, he said to him, “You still lack one thing. Sell all that you have, and distribute it to the poor. You will have treasure in heaven. Come, follow me.”

²²Ciise goortuu waxaas maqlay ayuu ku yidhi, Weli wax keliya ayaa kuu dhiman. Waxaad haysatid oo dhan iibi, oo masaakiinta u qaybi, oo waxaad jannada ku lahaan doontaa maal, ee kaalay oo i soo raac.

²³But when he heard these things, he became very sad, for he was very rich.

²³Laakiin goortuu waxaas maqlay ayuu aad uga caloolxumaaday, waayo, aad buu hodan u ahaa.

²⁴Jesus, seeing that he became very sad, said, “How hard it is for those who have riches to enter into the Kingdom of God!

²⁴Ciise goortuu arkay, wuxuu yidhi, Kuwa hodanka ah waa ku adag tahay inay boqortooyada Ilaah galaan,

²⁵ For it is easier for a camel to enter in through a needle’s eye, than for a rich man to enter into the Kingdom of God.”

²⁵waayo, nin hodan ah inuu boqortooyada Ilaah galo waxaa ka hawl yar in awr irbad daloolkeeda ka duso.

²⁶Those who heard it said, “Then who can be saved?”

²⁶Markaasaa kuwa maqlay waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Haddaba yaa badbaadi kara?

²⁷But he said, “The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.”

²⁷Wuxuuse ku yidhi, Waxa aan dadka u suurtoobin, Ilaah waa u suurtoobaan.

²⁸Peter said, “Look, we have left everything, and followed you.”

²⁸Butros ayaa ku yidhi, Bal eeg, waxayagii ayaannu ka tagnay, waana ku raacnay.

²⁹He said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or wife, or brothers, or parents, or children, for the Kingdom of God’s sake,

²⁹Wuxuuna ku yidhi, Runtii waxaan idinku leeyahay. Ma jiro nin boqortooyada Ilaah aawadeed uga tegey guri, ama afo, ama walaalo, ama waalid, ama carruur,

³⁰ who will not receive many times more in this time, and in the world to come, eternal life.”

³⁰oo aan haatan helayn labanlaab badan, wakhtiga imanayana nolosha weligeed ah.

³¹He took the twelve aside, and said to them, “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things that are written through the prophets concerning the Son of Man will be completed.

³¹Laba-iyo-tobankii ayuu watay oo ku yidhi, Waxaynu ku soconnaa Yeruusaalem, oo wax walba oo nebiyadu qoreen ayaa Wiilka Aadanaha u noqon doona.

³² For he will be delivered up to the Gentiles, will be mocked, treated shamefully, and spit on.

³²Waayo, isaga waxaa loo dhiibi doonaa dadka aan Yuhuudda ahayn, waana lagu kajami doonaa, oo la caayi doonaa, oo lagu tufi doonaa,

³³ They will scourge and kill him. On the third day, he will rise again.”

³³wayna karbaashi doonaan oo dili doonaan, maalinta saddexaadna wuu soo sara kici doonaa.

³⁴They understood none of these things. This saying was hidden from them, and they didn’t understand the things that were said.

³⁴Laakiin waxyaalahaas waxba kama ay garan, hadalkaasna waa ka qarsoonaa, mana ay garan wixii la yidhi.

³⁵It happened, as he came near Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the road, begging.

³⁵Waxaa noqotay markuu Yerixoo ku soo dhowaaday, in nin indha la' jidka ag fadhiyey oo dawarsanayay,

³⁶Hearing a multitude going by, he asked what this meant.

³⁶oo goortuu maqlay dadka badan oo ag maraya ayuu weyddiiyey waxaas waxay ahaayeen.

³⁷They told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.

³⁷Waxay u sheegeen in Ciisihii Reer Naasared ag marayo.

³⁸He cried out, “Jesus, you son of David, have mercy on me!”

³⁸Markaasuu qayliyey isagoo leh, Ciise, ina Daa'uudow, ii naxariiso.

³⁹Those who led the way rebuked him, that he should be quiet; but he cried out all the more, “You son of David, have mercy on me!”

³⁹Kuwa hor marayay ayaa canaantay si uu u aamuso, laakiin si ka badan ayuu ugu qayliyey, Ina Daa'uudow, ii naxariiso.

⁴⁰Standing still, Jesus commanded him to be brought to him. When he had come near, he asked him,

⁴⁰Markaasaa Ciise joogsaday oo wuxuu ku amray in loo keeno, oo goortuu u soo dhowaaday ayuu weyddiiyey, oo ku yidhi,

⁴¹ “What do you want me to do?” He said, “Lord, that I may see again.”

⁴¹Maxaad doonaysaa inaan kuu sameeyo? Wuxuu ku yidhi, Sayidow, inaan wax arko.

⁴²Jesus said to him, “Receive your sight. Your faith has healed you.”

⁴²Markaasaa Ciise ku yidhi, Wax arag; rumaysadkaaga ayaa ku bogsiiyey.Kolkiiba ayuu wax arkay, wuuna raacay oo Ilaah ammaanay. Dadkii oo dhanna goortay arkeen, ayay Ilaah ammaaneen.

⁴³Immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God. All the people, when they saw it, praised God.

⁴³Kolkiiba ayuu wax arkay, wuuna raacay oo Ilaah ammaanay. Dadkii oo dhanna goortay arkeen, ayay Ilaah ammaaneen.
