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, calling together the twelve, he gave them power and authority over all the demons, and to be curing, diseases;
2 Khawsa awithang leek kqawn aham ingkaw thlak tlokhqi qoei sak aham tyi khqi hy.
and sent them forth, to be proclaiming the kingdom of God, and to be healing;
3 A mingmih a venawh: “Lam awhkaw aham ikaw awm koeh khyn uh - sawnghqawl, sawngsa, phaihpi, tangka ingkaw angki zunghih koeh khyn uh.
and said unto them—Nothing, take ye for the journey, —neither staff, nor satchel, nor bread, nor silver, nor to have, two tunics.
4 Nami pahnaak im a hoei awh, ce a khaw ce nami cehtaak hlan dy awm poe uh.
And, into whatsoever house ye enter, there, abide, and, thence, be going forth.
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 soever as shall not welcome you, in going forth from that city, the dust of your feet, shake ye off, for a witness against them.
6 Cedawngawh, cet unawh khaw pynoet coeng pynoet awh awithang leek kqawn unawh thlak tlokhqi ce qoei sak uhy.
And they went forth, and were passing through, along the villages, —delivering the glad-message, and effecting cures in every direction.
7 Herod boei ing cawhkaw awithang ce za hy. Thlang vang ing, “Johan ce tho tlaih nawh ni,” ti uhy,
Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all the things which were coming to pass, and was utterly at a loss, because of its being said, by some, that, John, had been raised 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, had appeared; and, by others, that, some prophet of the ancients, had arisen.
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.
But Herod said—John, I myself, beheaded; but, who is this, concerning whom I am hearing such things as these? And he was seeking 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 the Apostles, returning, related to him what great things they had done. And, taking them aside, he retired privately, into 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, getting to know, followed him; and, giving them welcome, he began speaking unto them concerning the kingdom of God, —and, them that had need of cure, he healed,
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, coming near, said to him—Dismiss the multitude, that, going into the surrounding villages and hamlets, they may lodge, and find provisions; because, here, in a desert place, are we.
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 unto them—Give, ye, them to eat. They, however, said—We have not more than five loaves, and two fishes, —unless perhaps, we, should go, and 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 unto his disciples—Make them recline, in companies of about fifty each.
15 A hubatkhqi ing thlang kqeng ce ngawih sak khqi hy.
And they did so, —and made, one and all, recline.
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, taking the five loaves, and the two fishes, looking up into heaven, he blessed them, and brake [them] up, and went on giving 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 did all eat and were filled. And that which remained over to them, was taken up, —of broken pieces, 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, when he was praying in solitude, 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 they, answering, said John the Immerser; But some, Elijah, and others, that, some prophet of the ancients, hath arisen.
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 who say, ye, that I am? And, Peter, answering, said—The Christ of God!
21 Ce akawng ce u aven awh awm amamik kqawn aham cekkhqi ce yn khqi hy.
He, however, sternly admonishing them, gave charge that, unto no one, should they be telling this;
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—The Son of Man must needs suffer, many things, and be rejected by the Elders and High priests and Scribes, and be slain, —and, on the third day, arise.
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 was saying, unto all—If any one intendeth after me to come, Let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, —and be following 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, whosoever intendeth, his life, to save, shall lose it; but, whosoever shall lose his life for my sake, the same, shall save it?
25 Thlang ing khawmdek pum ve ham mai seiawm a hqingnaak a hlawng awhtaw anih ham ikaw phu a taak?
For what doth a man profit, who hath gained the whole world, but hath lost, or been made to forfeit, 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, whosoever shall be ashamed of me, and of my words, of him, the Son of Man, will be ashamed, whensoever he shall come in his glory, and that of the Father, and of the holy messengers.
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 of a truth—There, are, some of those, here, standing, who shall in nowise taste of death, until 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, after these words, about eight days, taking with him Peter and John and James, he went up into the mountain to pray.
29 Ak cykcah awh a hai ce thaw qu nawh, a hi ce khawkphlamyihna vang hy.
And it came to pass, while he was praying, that, the appearance of his face, was changed, and, his clothing, became white, effulgent.
30 Cawh thlang pakkhih Mosi ingkaw Elijah,
And lo! two men, were conversing with him, who, indeed, 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, appearing in glory, were speaking as to his departure, which he was about to fulfil in 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.
Now, Peter, and they who were with him, had become heavy with sleep; but, waking up, they saw his glory, and the two men who were standing 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, when they were being parted from him, Peter said unto Jesus—Master! it is, delightful, for us to be, here: Let us, therefore, make three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah: —not knowing what he said.
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.
Now, while he was saying these things, there came a cloud, and it began to overshadow them, —and they were overcome with fear 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 Son, the Chosen One: Unto him, be hearkening.
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, when the voice came, there was found, Jesus alone. And they held their peace, and, unto no one, reported they, in those days, any of the things which they had 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, that there met him a great multitude.
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 lo! a man from the multitude, uttered a cry, saying—Teacher! I beg of thee, to look upon my son, because, my only begotten, he is.
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, taketh him, and, suddenly, he crieth out, —and it convulseth him—with foaming, and with difficulty departeth from him, sorely bruising him.
40 Na hubatkhqi venawh hqek pek a hamna thoeh hlai nyng, am hqek thai uhy,” tina hy.
And I begged of thy disciples, that they would 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, making answer, Jesus said—O faithless and perverted generation! how long shall I be with you, and bear with you? Bring, hither, thy son.
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, while yet he was coming, the demon tare him, and mangled him. But Jesus rebuked the impure 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 being struck with astonishment, at the majesty of God. And, while all were marvelling at all things which he was doing, he said unto 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.
Lay, ye, up in your ears, these words; for, the Son of Man, is about 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, understood not this saying, and it had become veiled from them, that they might not grasp it, —and they were afraid to question him, concerning 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 there entered a reasoning among them, as to who of them should be greatest.
47 Jesu ing a mingmih ak kawpoek ce a sim a dawngawh naasen ce lo nawh a venawh dyih sak hy.
And, Jesus, perceiving the reasoning of their heart, taking a child, placed it near himself, —
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 said unto them—Whosoever shall give welcome unto this child, on my name, unto me, giveth welcome; and, whosoever, unto me, giveth welcome, giveth welcome unto him that sent me forth. For, he who is least among you all, the same, is, 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.
But John, answering, said—Master! we saw some one, in thy name, casting out demons, —and we forbade him, because he followeth not with us.
50 Jesu ing, “Koeh kham pe uh, nangmih a ma nik oelh thlang cetaw nangmih ben thlang ni,” tinak khqi hy.
And Jesus said unto him—Do not forbid; for, whosoever is not against you, is, for you.
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, when the days for taking him up were on the point of being fulfilled, even he himself, set, his face, to be journeying unto 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 messengers before his face, —and, taking their journey, they entered into a village of Samaritans, so as to prepare 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 welcomed him not, because, his face, was for journeying unto 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 the disciples James and John, seeing it, said—Lord! wilt thou, that we bid fire come down from heaven, and destroy them?
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, turning, he rebuked them.
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.
And they journeyed into a different 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, as they were journeying on the road, one said unto him—I will follow thee, whithersoever thou shalt depart.
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 unto him—the foxes, have, dens, and, the birds of heaven, nests; but, the Son of Man, hath not where, his head, he may recline.
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 unto another—Be following me! But, he, said—Suffer me, first, to depart, and 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.
And he said unto him—Leave, the dead, to bury their own dead; but, thou, departing, be declaring 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, yet another, said—I will follow thee, Lord; But, first, suffer me to bid adieu to them that are 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 [unto him] —No one, laying the hand on a plough and looking unto the things behind, is, fit, for the kingdom of God.
