Luke 9
1 A hubat thlanghqa hlaihih ce ak khy coengawh, qaaikhqi hqek thainak ingkaw thlak tlo qoei sak thainaak ce pek khqi nawh,
And having summoned the twelve, he gave them power and authority over all demons, and to heal diseases.
2 Khawsa awithang leek kqawn aham ingkaw thlak tlokhqi qoei sak aham tyi khqi hy.
And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal those who were incapacitated.
3 A mingmih a venawh: “Lam awhkaw aham ikaw awm koeh khyn uh - sawnghqawl, sawngsa, phaihpi, tangka ingkaw angki zunghih koeh khyn uh.
And he said to them, Take nothing for the way, neither staffs, nor bag, nor bread, nor silver, nor have two coats each.
4 Nami pahnaak im a hoei awh, ce a khaw ce nami cehtaak hlan dy awm poe uh.
And into whatever house ye may enter, remain there, and from there depart.
5 Thlang ing a ma ni do khqi awhtaw, ce a khaw ce nami cehtaak awh nami khawpha awhkaw dekvai ce khawk sih uh,” tinak khqi hy.
And as many as will not receive you, when departing from that city, also shake off the dust from your feet for a testimony against them.
6 Cedawngawh, cet unawh khaw pynoet coeng pynoet awh awithang leek kqawn unawh thlak tlokhqi ce qoei sak uhy.
And having departed, they passed through the villages, preaching the good news, and healing everywhere.
7 Herod boei ing cawhkaw awithang ce za hy. Thlang vang ing, “Johan ce tho tlaih nawh ni,” ti uhy,
But Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by him. And he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John was risen from the dead,
8 thlang vang ingtaw, “Elijah dang law tlaih nawh ni,” ti bai uhy, thlang vang bai ingtaw, “Syn awhkaw tawngha pynoet oet hqing tlaih nawh ni,” tinawh kqawn uhy.
and by some that Elijah appeared, and by others that a prophet, one of the ancient men arose.
9 Cehlai Herod ingtaw, “Johan ce a hawng tlyk hawh hlai nyng; vawhkaw awithang kang zaak ve a u bai hy voei nu?” ti hy. Cedawngawh anih ce huh aham ngaih hy.
And Herod said, I beheaded John, but who is this about whom I hear such things? And he sought to see him.
10 Ceityihkhqi a ming voei tlaih coengawh, ik-oeih a mi saikhqi ce Jesu a venawh kqawn pe uhy. Cekkhqi ce Bethsaida a mi ti khaw na ce ceh pyi khqi hy.
And when the apostles returned, they related to him as many things as they did. And having taken them along, he withdrew in private into a desolate place of a city called Bethsaida.
11 Cehlai thlang kqeng ing sim nawh a hu awh hquut uhy. Cekkhqi ce ym nawh a mingmih a venawh Khawsa qam akawng ce kqawn pek khqi nawh, cekcoengawh thlak tlokhqi awm qoei sak khqi hy.
But the multitudes having known, they followed him. And having received them, he spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and he cured those who had need of healing.
12 Khaw a nung keeng awhtaw thlanghqa hlaihih tloek ce a venna law unawh, “vawhkaw thlang kqeng ve khaw ceng khaw cawi awh tyi khqi hlah, buh a an ingkaw ih a awmnaak sui na u seh, ningnih ce kqawng lakna nik awm uni,” tina uhy.
And the day began to decline, and the twelve having come near, they said to him, Send the multitude away, so that, after going into the villages and fields around, they may rest and find provision, because we are here in a desolate place.
13 Anih ing, “Nangmih ing ai kawi ce pe uh,” tinak khqi hy. A mingmih ing, thlang vezah aham buh a an am nik thlaih peek mantaw - phaihpi cun nga ingkaw nga pakkhih doeng ni a awm hy,” tina uhy.
But he said to them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, There are for us not more than five loaves and two fishes, unless, after going, we might buy food for all this people.
14 (Vawh thlang thongnga awm uhy.) Cehlai a hubatkhqi na ce, “Thlang hakip hakip awh ngawih sak hloep hloep uh,” tinak khqi hy.
For there were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down in groups of fifty each.
15 A hubatkhqi ing thlang kqeng ce ngawih sak khqi hy.
And they did so, and made them all sit down.
16 Phaihpi cun nga ingkaw nga pakkhih ce lo nawh khan benna hang mang nawh, zeel awi ak kqawn coengawh ek hy. Thlang kqeng a haiawh toen peek aham a hubatkhqi venawh pehy.
And after taking the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to heaven, he blessed them, and broke in pieces, and gave to the disciples to set before the multitude.
17 A mingmih ing ai unawh a mi phyi coengawh ak ngen ce vawh hqa hlaihih na kawi uhy.
And they ate, and were all filled. And there were taken up to them of the remaining fragments, twelve baskets.
18 Hypoet taw Jesu ing amah doeng ak cykcah awh, a hubatkhqi ce a venawh awm usaw doet khqi hy, “Thlangkhqi ing kai ve u nu a mi ti?” tinak khqi hy.
And it came to pass, as he was praying privately, the disciples were with him. And he questioned them, saying, Who do the multitudes say that I am?
19 Cekkhqi ing, “Thlang vang ing 'Baptisma ak pekung Johan,' ti unawh, thlang vang ing, 'Elijah,' ti uhy, thlang vang bai ingtaw, 'Syn awhkaw tawngha pynoet oet ak tho tlaih ni,' ti uhy,” tina uhy.
And having answered, they said, John the immerser, but others, Elijah, and others, that a certain prophet of the ancient men arose.
20 Cawhtaw, ami venawh, “Nangmih ingtaw kai ve u nu nami ti?” tinak khqi hy. Piter ing, “Nang taw Khawsa a Khrih ni,” tina hy.
And he said to them, But ye, who say ye that I am? And having answered, Peter said, The Christ of God.
21 Ce akawng ce u aven awh awm amamik kqawn aham cekkhqi ce yn khqi hy.
But having chided them, he commanded to tell this to no man,
22 Thlanghqing Capa ing khuikhanaak hu kawmsaw a hqamcakhqi, khawsoeih boeikhqi ingkaw anaa awi cawngpyikungkhqi ing hoet kawm uh, him kawm usaw am thum nyn awh tho tlaih kaw,” tinak khqi hy.
saying, It is necessary for the Son of man to suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scholars, and be killed, and the third day to rise.
23 Cekcoengawh a mingmih boeih a venawh, “U ingawm ka hu awh bat ham a ngaih awhtaw, amah ingkaw amah ce hoet qu seitaw, myngawi na amah a thinglam ce kawh doena ka hu awh bat law seh.
And he said to all, If any man wants to come behind me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
24 Ikawtih, u awm a hqingnaak hul ham ak ngaih ingtaw hlawng seitaw, u awm kai ak camawh a hqingnaak ak hlawng ingtaw a hqingnaak ce hul kaw.
For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever may lose his life because of me, this man will save it.
25 Thlang ing khawmdek pum ve ham mai seiawm a hqingnaak a hlawng awhtaw anih ham ikaw phu a taak?
For what is a man benefited, having gained the whole world, but having lost or having forfeited himself?
26 U awm kai ingkaw kak awi ak chah pyi taw, Thlanghqing Capa ing amah a boeimangnaak, a Pa a boeimangnaak ingkaw khan ceityih ciimcaihkhqi a boeimangnaak ing ami law awh anih ce chah pyi lawt kaw.
For whoever may be ashamed of me and of my words, the Son of man will be ashamed of this man when he comes in his glory, and of the Father, and of the holy agents.
27 Awitak ka nik kqawn peek khqi, vawh ak dyi thlang vangkhqi ing Khawsa qam a huh hlan dy thihnaak amak tan hly awm uhy,” tinak khqi hy.
But I tell you truly, there are some of those who stand here, who will, no, not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.
28 Ve ak awi ak kqawn coeng ak kqeet nyn awh, Jesu ing Piter, Johan ingkaw Jakob ce khy nawh tlang na cykcah aham van pyi khqi hy.
And it came to pass about eight days after these sayings, that after taking Peter and John and James, he went up onto the mountain to pray.
29 Ak cykcah awh a hai ce thaw qu nawh, a hi ce khawkphlamyihna vang hy.
And as he was praying, the appearance of his face became different, and his clothing glistening white.
30 Cawh thlang pakkhih Mosi ingkaw Elijah,
And behold, two men talked with him, who were Moses and Elijah,
31 ce boeimang soeih na dang nih nawh Jesu ingqawi awi pau uhy. Jesu a lam ceh Jerusalem awh a soep naak hly ce kqawn uhy.
who, having appeared in glory, spoke of his departure, which he was going to fulfill at Jerusalem.
32 Piter ingkaw a pyi qawi taw ip uhy, a ming hqyng law awhtaw a boeimangnaak ing a venawh thlang pakkhih ak dyi ce hu uhy.
But Peter and those with him were weighed down with sleep, and having become awake, they saw his glory, and the two men who stood with him.
33 Cawhkaw thlang qawi ing Jesu ceh taak hlah sih a ni ti awh, Piter ing, “Bawipa, vawh awmnaak ham hyn leek soeih hy, buk pakthum awh heen sih - pynoet ce nang aham seh, pynoet ce Mosi aham seitaw pynoet bai ce Elijah aham seh,” tina hy. (Kaw ak kqawn ti awm am sim hy.)
And it came to pass, as they were departing from him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here, and we could make three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah, not knowing what he was saying.
34 Awi ak kqawn huili awh, myi than law nawh a mingmih ce zawl khqi khoep hy, myi ak khuina a mi lut awh kqih uhy.
And while he was speaking these things, a cloud came and overshadowed them. And they were afraid as they entered into the cloud.
35 Myi ak khuiawh kawng awi law nawh, “Vetaw ka Capa kak tyh ni; ak awi ngai pe uh,” tihy.
And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son. Hear ye him.
36 Cawhkaw awi ce a sit coengawh, Jesu amah doeng caa ce hu uhy. A hubatkhqi ing cawhkaw ik-oeih ce khoem dym unawh a mi huh ik-oeih ce a u a venawh awm ap kqawn pe uhy.
And at the occurrence of the voice, Jesus was found alone. And they kept silent, and informed no man in those days any of the things that they have seen.
37 A khawngawi awh tlang nakawng a mi kqum lawawh, thlang khawzah ing amih ce do uhy.
And it came to pass, on the next day, when they came down from the mountain, a large crowd met him.
38 Thlang kqeng ak khuiawh kaw thlang pynoet ing, “Cawngpyi kung, ka capa na toek law ham ni ngaih na nyng, ka capa ka taak dyn na awm nawh.
And behold, a man from the crowd cried out, saying, Teacher, I beseech thee to look upon my son, because he is the only begotten to me.
39 Ngai lah, qaai ing tu nawh, khy hoeih hoeih hy, a cimtui ang tlaak doena dek awh tluuk sak nawh a phep qee coengawh ceh taak hoeih hoeih hy.
And lo, a spirit seizes him, and he suddenly cries out, and it convulses him with foaming. And it departs from him difficultly, injuring him.
40 Na hubatkhqi venawh hqek pek a hamna thoeh hlai nyng, am hqek thai uhy,” tina hy.
And I begged thy disciples that they might cast it out, and they could not.
41 Jesu ing, “Aw cangnaak amak takhqi ingkaw amthin amak cak cadil tloek, iqyt nu ka ni awm pyi khqi nawh ka ning yh pyi khqi kaw? Na capa ce vena law pyi lah,” tina hy.
And having answered, Jesus said, O faithless and perverted generation, how long will I be with you and endure you? Bring thy son here.
42 Naasen ce a law pyi hui awh qaai ing dek awh tluuk sak nawh ak tlo na phep qee hy. Cehlai Jesu ing qaai ce zyi nawh, naasen ce a qoei sak coengawh a pa a venawh pe tlaih hy.
And as he was still coming, the demon tore him, and he convulsed. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.
43 Thlang boeih ing Khawsa a boeimangnaak ce kawpoek na kyi sak uhy. Jesu a them saithainaak awh a mik kawpoek a kyi hui awh, Jesu ing a hubatkhqi venawh,
And they were all amazed at the majesty of God. But while all were wondering at all the things which Jesus did, he said to his disciples,
44 Awi kqawn law vang nyng, ak nep na ngai lah uh: Thlanghqing Capa ve thlang a kut awh tu sak kawm uh,” tinak khqi hy.
Place ye these sayings into your ears, for the Son of man is going to be delivered up into the hands of men.
45 Cehlai ak kqawn ngaihnaak ce am zaksim pe uhy. A mingmih ang zaksim kawi na a ma awm a dawngawh, am khoem thai uhy, amah ce doet aham awm kqih koek uhy.
But they did not understand this saying, and it was concealed from them, so that they did not perceive it. And they were afraid to ask him about this saying.
46 A mingmih ak khuiawh u nu ak bau soeih na ak awm kaw, tinawh a hubatkhqi ak khuiawh oelh qu uhy.
But a thought entered among them, which of them may be greater.
47 Jesu ing a mingmih ak kawpoek ce a sim a dawngawh naasen ce lo nawh a venawh dyih sak hy.
But having perceived the thought of their heart, having taken a child, Jesus stood it beside him,
48 Cekcoengawh a mingmih a venawh, “U awm vawhkaw naasen ve kai ang ming ing ak ym taw kai a nik tyikung ce ak ym na awm hy. Nangmih boeih ak khuiawh ak zawi soeih na ak awm ce ak bau soeih na awm hy,” tinak khqi hy.
and he said to them, Whoever may receive this child in my name receives me, and whoever may receive me receives him who sent me, for he who exists smaller among you all, this man will be great.
49 Johan ing, “Bawipa, thlang pynoet ngawh nang ang ming ing qaai a hqek ce hu u nyngsaw kham pe u nyng, kaimih ak khuiawh kaw thlang na a ma awm a dawngawh,” tina uhy.
And having answered, John said, Master, we saw a certain man casting out demons in thy name, and we forbade him, because he does not follow with us.
50 Jesu ing, “Koeh kham pe uh, nangmih a ma nik oelh thlang cetaw nangmih ben thlang ni,” tinak khqi hy.
But Jesus said to him, Do not forbid, for he who is not against us is for us.
51 Khawk khan na amah ceh pyi aham a tym a zoe law awh, Jesu taw Jerusalem na cet hy.
And it came to pass, while fulfilling the days for his ascension, that he also set his face to go to Jerusalem.
52 Laipaikhqi ce haina tyi hy, ik-oeihkhqi qoek a bah aham a mingmih ce Samari khawk khui pynoet awh cet uhy;
And he sent agents before his face, and they went. And having gone, they entered into a village of Samaritans, so as to make ready for him.
53 cehlai Jerusalem khaw na ceh phaat aham ang cai a dawngawh cawhkaw a mik awm thlangkhqi ing anih ce am do uhy.
And they did not receive him, because his face was going to Jerusalem.
54 A hubat qawi Jakob ingkaw Johan ing cemyihna a mi awm ce a ni huh awh, “Bawipa, a mingmih ve hqe aham khawk khan nakaw mai (Elijah ing ak khy myihna) khy sih aw?” tina hy nih.
And his disciples James and John having seen, they said, Lord, do thou want that we should call fire to come down from the sky, and consume them, as also Elijah did?
55 Cehlai Jesu ing cekqawi ce hawi sih nawh zyi qawi hy. (Kawmih ak kawpoek nu nani taak tice am sim hy nik ti).
But having turned around, he rebuked them, and said, Ye do not know what kind of spirit ye are.
56 (Thlanghqing Capa ve thlang a hqingnaak hqe aham am law nawh, hqingnaak hul aham nani a law, tina qawi hy.) Cekcoengawh khawk chang na cet pahoei uhy.
For the Son of man came not to destroy the lives of men, but to save. And they went to another village.
57 Lam na a mi ceh awh thlang pynoet ing a venawh, “Na cehnaak a hoei awh bat lawt vang nyng,” tina hy.
And it came to pass while they went on the way, a certain man said to him, I will follow thee wherever thou may go, Lord.
58 Jesu ing a venawh, “Ngentangkhqi ing a mik kawk ta unawh phakhqi ingawm a ming bu ta uhy, cehlai Thlanghqing Capa ingtaw a lu a tloengnaak hun kangna awm am ta hy,” tina hy.
And Jesus said to him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky, nests, but the Son of man has not where he might lay his head.
59 Thlak chang a venawh, “Ka hu awh bat law,” tina hy. Cehlai cawhkaw thlang ing, “Ka pa a qawk khoem cang vang,” tina hy.
And he said to another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, allow me first, after departing, to bury my father.
60 Cehlai Jesu ing a venawh, “Thlak thi cetaw ak thi khqi ing khoem ngoen seh, nang taw cet nawh Khawsa ram ce kqawn lah,” tina hy.
But Jesus said to him, Leave the dead to bury their own dead, but thou, after departing, proclaim the kingdom of God.
61 Thlak chang pynoet bai ing, “Na hu awh bat bit kawng nyng, cehlai ka cakaw paqengkhqi phih a qaa cang vang nyng,” tina hy.
And also another said, I will follow thee, Lord, but first allow me to bid farewell to those in my house.
62 Jesu ing a venawh, “U awm laikawk thawlnaak awh a kut ta nawh hu benna ak mang taw Khawsa qam thlang nih am tlaak hy,” tina hy.
But Jesus said to him, No man, having put his hand to a plow, and looking to things behind, is fit for the kingdom of God.
