Luhka 7
1 Jesuh naw ngthu pyen law päng lü Kapenawma citki.
Now when he had ended all his sayings in the hearing of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
2 Acunüng Romah ngvai naw a jawngnaka m'ya mat thi law hlü khaia a mhnat awmki.
And a certain centurion’s servant, who was dear to him, was sick, and ready to die.
3 Jesuha mawng a ngjak üng, a m'ya mdaw law be khaia, Jesuh va nghui na u lü, khü khai hea, Judah ngvai he a jah tüih.
And when he heard of Jesus, he sent to him the elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant.
4 Jesuha veia law u lü aktäa nghui naki he naw, “Hina khyang ta na kpüi vaia ngkawi ve,
And when they came to Jesus, they besought him earnestly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this:
5 ani cun mi khyang he jah jawng na lü, Sinakok pi jah sak peki ni,” ami ti.
For he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue.
6 Acuna Jesuh ami veia citki. Acunüng a pha law tawm tawm la Romah ngvai naw a püi he jah tüi lü, “Bawipa aw, ka im na luhnak ngkawi vaia am kya ve, ä kha heia,
Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying to him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof:
7 acunakyase, na veia ka law vaia pi ka ngkawikia am ngai kyu veng, ngthu däng pyen lü, ka m'ya daw be khai ni.
Therefore neither thought I myself worthy to come to thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed.
8 “Isetiakyaküng, kei haw anaa takia keha ka awmki. Ka keha yekap he awmki he, mat am ‘cita’ ka ti üng citki, akce mat am ‘lawa’ ka ti üng lawki, ka m'ya am hin pawha ka ti üng pawhki,” a ti.
For I also am a man placed under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say to one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
9 Jesuh naw acun a ngjak üng, cäieiki naw, mang hü lü, amät läkia khyang he üng, “Isarel he üng pi ahikba sena jumeiki am hmu khawi nawng,” a ti.
When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned himself about, and said to the people that followed him, I say to you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
10 A khyang tüihe ima ami ceh be üng, m'ya cun daw be se ami hmuh.
And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant well that had been sick.
11 Acun käna Jesuh Nai ami tia mlüha cit se, axüisaw he la khyang khawjah a veia cit hngaki he.
And it came to pass the day after, that he went into a city called Nain; and many of his disciples went with him, and many people.
12 Mlüh mkawt pei a pha law üng, hmeinu naw mat däng a canak, khyang kthi ami yawknak kawt law u se, mlüh üngka he khawjah law hngaki he.
Now when he came near to the gate of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and many people of the city were with her.
13 Acunüng, Bawipa naw acuna hmeinu a hmuh üng, m'yenei leng leng lü, “Ä kyapa” a ti.
And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said to her, Weep not.
14 Jesuh naw law lü, yawkkawng hnet se, kawtki he ngdüiki he. Acunüng Jesuh naw, “Cawngpyang, tho law, ti veng,” ti se,
And he came and touched the bier: and they that bore him stood still. And he said, Young man, I say to thee, Arise.
15 akthi cun tho law lü ngthuhei law se, Jesuh naw a nu üng a pet.
And he that was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he delivered him to his mother.
16 Acunüng, ami van kyü lawki he naw, Pamhnam mküimto u lü, “Mi ksunga sahma akyäp awm law ve; Pamhnam a khyang he jah küikyan khaia law ve,” ami ti.
And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, That a great prophet hath risen among us; and, That God hath visited his people.
17 Acuna Jesuha mawng cun khaw avan la a pipeia hne avan üng ngthang hüki.
And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judaea, and throughout all the surrounding region.
18 Johana axüisaw he naw acuna mawng avan cun Johan üng ami mtheh.
And the disciples of John reported to him of all these things.
19 Acunüng, Johan naw axüisaw nghngih jah khüki naw, Bawipa veia jah tüi lü, “Johan naw law khai a tia khyanga na kyaki aw? Akce kami na äpei khai aw?” tia a jah va kthähsak.
And John calling two of his disciples sent them to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?
20 Acunüng, Jesuh veia law u lü, “Law khai mata na kyaki aw? Akce kami na äpei khai aw? tia ni kthäh vaia baptican Johan naw na veia a jah tüih law ni,” ami ti.
When the men had come to him, they said, John the Baptist hath sent us to thee, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another?
21 Acunapät üng Jesuh naw, a jah huieie, natnak khihlau akce kcea jah awmnak he, ngmüimkhya ksea awmnak he khawjah jah mdaw be lü, amikmü khawjah a jah mdeisak be.
And in that same hour he cured many of their infirmities and afflictions, and of evil spirits; and to many that were blind he gave sight.
22 Jesuh naw, “Citbe u lü, nami hmuh la nami sim he Johan üng jah va mtheh ua; amikmüe mdei law be ve u, akhawkxo he ami khaw am cit ve u, mnehkse mnehkie ngcim be ve u, ami nghnga kpangki he pi ami nghnga ngjang be ve u, akthi he xüng law be ve u, khuikha m’yetsekiea veia thangkdaw sanga kya ve.
Then Jesus answering said to them, Go, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; that the blind see, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.
23 “Upi, keia phäha, a mlung am hlawtlatki ta a jo sen ve,” a ti.
And blessed is he, who shall not be offended because of me.
24 Johana xüisaw he ami ktawih be käna, Jesuh naw Johana mawng khyang he üng jah mtheh lü, “Johana veia, khawkhyawng khawa nami ceh üng, i teng khaia ni nami ceh? Khawkhia aksün khuhlip teng khaia aw nami ceh?
And when the messengers of John had departed, he began to speak to the people concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind?
25 “Am acunüng i teng khaia ni nami ceh? Suisak akdaw suisaki teng khaia aw nami ceh? Suisak akdaw suisaki he cun sangpuxang hea ima ni ami awm khawi.
But what went ye out to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they who are gorgeously apparelled, and live delicately, are in kings’ courts.
26 “Am acunüng sahma teng khaia aw nami ceh? Ä, ka ning jah mtheki, sahmaa kthaka pi kyäp bawki hia awm ve,
But what went ye out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say to you, and much more than a prophet.
27 cangcim naw ‘Ngaia ka khyang na ma ka tüih, ani naw na maa lam pyang khai’ tia a mawng ami yuk cen ahina Johan ni.
This is he, concerning whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.
28 “Ka ning jah mthehki, nghnumi hea ca avan üng Johana kyäp bawki sahma am awm naw; cunsepi, Pamhnama khawa akjaw säih pi Johana kthaka kyäp bawki ni,” a ti.
For I say to you, Among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
29 Acunüng, khyang avan naw ami ngjak; aktunga ngcawnklawk he cun Pamhnama ngsungpyunak vaia Johana baptican khanki he.
And all the people that heard him, and the tax collectors, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.
30 Cunsepi, Pharise he la, thum mksingki he naw, ami hama Pamhnama pyan ma u lü, Johana baptican ä khanki he.
But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized by him.
31 Jesuh naw pyen be tü lü, “Tuhkbäiha ngsawn he hin i am ni ka jah msuimcäp kawm? Ia mäih ni ami law?
And the Lord said, To what then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?
32 “Ahin he cun Anghmawe jawihtuknaka ngawki he, ngkhü kyu u lü, ‘Cambumak pülün ning jah tum pe ung se am nami nglamki, yawk la sa ung se pi am nami kyapki’ ti am tängki he.
They are like children sitting in the marketplace, and calling one to another, and saying, We have piped to you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept.
33 “Baptican Johan a law üng ei nghmü lü capyitui am aw se, ‘khawyaia awmnak’ nami tiki.
For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a demon.
34 “Khyanga Capa law lü ei aw se, ‘Teng u, eiaw aih ve, ngcawnklawk he la khyang kse hea püi cen’ nami tiki.
The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!
35 “Mhnama ksingkhyapnak cun dokhameiki he naw a cangnak mdangki he ni,” a ti.
But wisdom is justified by all her children.
36 Pharise mat naw a veia buh ei khaia khü se, Jesuh Pharisea ima lut lü buh ei khaia ngawki.
And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him. And he went into the Pharisee’s house, and sat down to eat.
37 Acuna mlüh üng nghnumi kse mat awmki naw Pharisea ima Jesuh buh ei lü awmki ti, a ksing üng, alabasta um üng situi ngui lawpüiki naw,
And, behold, a woman in the city, who was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus was eating in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster box of ointment,
38 Jesuha hnu, a khaw kunga kyap lü ngdüiki. A miktui naw a khawpha msüi se, a lusam am xüt lü, a khawpha mhnamki naw, situi ng'ui am a hluk.
And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
39 Pharise naw hmu lü, a mlung k'uma, “Hin hin sahma kcanga a kya vai sü, hnetkia nghnuminu hin u ni, ia mäih ni ti ksing khai sü. Khyangka kyalang se,” a ti.
Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he spoke within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him: for she is a sinner.
40 Jesuh naw, “Sihmon, na veia ngthu mat ka pyen vai awm ve,” ti lü a msang. Acunüng Sihmon naw, “Saja aw pyena,” a ti.
And Jesus answering said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he saith, Master, say it.
41 Jesuh naw, “Ngui jah kpuki, mat naw, khyang nghngih üng ngui a jah kpu; mat üng phya mhma a kpu, mat am mhmakip a kpu.
There was a certain creditor who had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.
42 “Ani thungnak be vai am ta ni se, ani nghngih a jah mhlät. Acunüng, acun xawi üng u naw jawng na bawk khai ni?” a ti.
And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?
43 Sihmon naw, “A mhlät däm naw jawng na bawk khaia ngai veng,” ti lü, msang se, Jesuh naw, “Cang veki,” a ti.
Simon answered and said, I suppose that he, to whom he forgave most. And he said to him, Thou hast rightly judged.
44 Acunüng, nghnumi nghlat si lü, Sihmona veia, “Hina nghnuminu na hmuki aw? Na ima lut law ni se, ka khaw ka mthinak vaia tui am na na peki, hina nghnuminu naw a miktui am ka khaw mthi lü, a lusam am xütki.
And he turned to the woman, and said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head.
45 “Nang naw am na na mhnamki, hina nghnumi naw ka luh law üng tün lü ka khawpha am pyai lü mhnamki.
Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
46 “Nang naw ka lü situi am na hluki, hina nghnumi naw ka khawpha situi am hluki.
My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment.
47 “Acunakyase, ning mtheh veng, aktäa jawng nakia kyase, a katnak he khawjah cun mhlät pänga kya ve. A katnak ajaw däng mhlät naw ajawha jawng naki,” a ti.
Therefore I say to thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.
48 Acunüng, Jesuh naw nghnumi üng, “Na katnak he jah mhlät pänga kya ve,” a ti.
And he said to her, Thy sins are forgiven.
49 Buh a eipüi he naw, “Katnak pi jah mhlätki hin u ni,” ami ti.
And they that were eating with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that forgiveth sins also?
50 Acunüng, Jesuh naw nghnumi üng, “Na jumnak naw ning küikyan ve, dim’yenak am cita,” a ti.
And he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
