Na iMatai ni Vosa Vakatautauvata

Na Sipi a Yali

A shepherd looks after his flock of 100 sheep - ch.35-4

E dua na ivakatawa vinaka ni sipi e 100 na nona sipi. A qai yali e dua.

The shepherd leaves the 99 other sheep and looks for the lost sheep - ch.35-5

A qai biuti ira na 99 na sipi ka laki vakasaqara na sipi a yali. Ni sa kunea, sa marau sara kina vakalevu.

The shepherd carries the sheep home on his shoulders and invites his neighbors to rejoice with him - ch.35-6

Sa kauta ki vale na sipi o ya. Sa kacivi ira mai na nona itokani kei na wekana me ra mai marautaka vata. Sa qai kunea tale na sipi a yali.

Jesus Christ explains that sinners are like the lost sheep and there will be joy in heaven if a sinner repents - ch.35-7

Sa tukuna o Jisu vei ira na Farisi na ibalebale ni vosa vakatautauvata. E tukuna ni o ira na ivalavala ca era sa vaka na sipi e yali.

Jesus explains that just as the shepherd wanted to save the lost sheep He wants to save sinners - ch.35-8

Me vakataka ga na ivakatawa a gadreva me vakabula na sipi sa yali, sa gadreva vakakina o Jisu me vakabulai ira sa ivalavala ca.

Jesus tells the Pharisees that that is why He was talking with sinners - ch.35-10

E tukuna o Jisu ni o ya na vuna a vosa tiko kina vei ira sa ivalavala ca.

Maciu 18:11 (raica na ivakamacala e botona11c); Marika 2:17

Just as the shepherd was happy to find his sheep, Jesus is happy when sinners repent - ch.35-9

Me vaka ga ni a marau vakalevu na ivakatawa ni sa kunea na sipi a yali, sa marau vakalevu kina o Jisu ni da sa veivutuni.
