Toksahkungnawk 10
1 Caesarea vangpui ah Kornelia, tiah kawk ih kami maeto oh, anih loe Italy misatuh kami cumvaito ukkung ah oh moe,
There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band,
2 anih hoi a imthung takoh boih loe Sithaw zii kami, bokhaih bangah angpaek kami ah oh o, anih loe amtang kaminawk hanah hmuenmae paek khue ai ah, Sithaw khae lawkthui toepsoep kami ah oh.
A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God always.
3 Atue thumto phak naah, anih mah hnuksakhaih hmuen maeto a hnuk, Sithaw ih van kami angzoh moe, anih khaeah, Kornelia, tiah a naa.
He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming in to him, and saying to him, Cornelius.
4 Kornelia mah anih to khet naah zit moe, Angraeng, tih maw? tiah a naa. Anih mah Kornelia khaeah, Na lawkthuihaih hoi amtang kaminawk hanah na paqumh ih hmuen loe, panoek poe hanah Sithaw hmaa angzoh tahang boeh.
And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said to him, Your prayers and your alms are come up for a memorial before God.
5 Vaihi Joppa vangpui ah kami patoeh ah loe Piter, tiah kawk ih, Simon to kawk ah:
And now send men to Joppa, and call for one Simon, whose surname is Peter:
6 anih loe moihin huikung Simon im ah oh, anih ih im loe tuipui taengah oh: anih mah na sak han koi hmuen to na thui tih, tiah a naa.
He lodges with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side: he shall tell you what you ought to do.
7 Anih khaeah lok kathui van kami to tacawt pacoengah, Kornelia mah a tamna hnik hoi Sithaw tanghaih tawn misatuh kami maeto a kawk moe;
And when the angel which spoke to Cornelius was departed, he called two of his household servants, and a devout soldier of them that waited on him continually;
8 a hnuk ih hmuen hoi a thaih ih hmuennawk to a thuih pae boih pacoengah, nihcae to Joppa vangpui ah patoeh.
And when he had declared all these things to them, he sent them to Joppa.
9 Khawnbangah loe nihcae kholong caeh amsak o, Joppa vangpui to a phak o tom boeh, Piter loe lawkthuih hanah atue tarukto naah im ranui asom ah dawh tahang:
On the morrow, as they went on their journey, and drew near to the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray about the sixth hour:
10 anih loe zok amthlam parai pongah, buhcaak han koeh boeh: buhcaak hanah patoem pae o naah, hnuksakhaih to a hnuk,
And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance,
11 kam-ong van to a hnuk, anih khae krah tathuk, takii palito kaom kahni anih khaeah long ah khrah tathuk hmuen to a hnuk.
And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending on him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth:
12 To kahni pongah loe khok palito kaom congca moinawk to oh, long ah kaom moisannawk, long ah kavak hmuennawk hoi van ah kazawk tavaanawk doeh oh.
Wherein were all manner of four footed beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.
13 To naah anih khaeah lok maeto angzoh moe, Piter angthawk ah; bop ah loe, caa ah, tiah a naa.
And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.
14 Toe Piter mah, Angcoeng thai ai, Angraeng; caak vai ai ih hmuen, to tih ai boeh loe ciimcai ai hmuen roe ka caa vai ai, tiah a naa.
But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean.
15 Vai hnetto haih ih lok mah anih khaeah, Sithaw mah ciimsak tangcae ih hmuen to ciimcai ai, tiah na thuih han om ai, tiah a naa.
And the voice spoke to him again the second time, What God has cleansed, that call not you common.
16 To tiah vaithumto amtueng; to pacoengah loe to hmuen to van ah lak tahang let.
This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven.
17 Piter mah to tiah hnuk ih hmuen loe tih thuih koehhaih ih maw vai, tiah a poek li naah, khenah, Kornerlia mah patoeh ih kaminawk mah Simon ih im to pakrong o, khongkha hma ah angdoet o moe,
Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had made inquiry for Simon’s house, and stood before the gate,
18 Piter, tiah kawk ih Simon to haeah oh maw? tiah a dueng o.
And called, and asked whether Simon, which was surnamed Peter, were lodged there.
19 Piter mah a hnuk ih hmuen to poek li naah, Muithla mah anih khaeah, Khenah, kami long thumto mah nang ang pakrong o, tiah a naa.
While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said to him, Behold, three men seek you.
20 To pongah angthawk ah, anghum tathuk ah loe, nihcae hoi nawnto caeh ah, palunghaenghaih tawn hmah, kai mah ni nihcae to kang patoeh, tiah a naa.
Arise therefore, and get you down, and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them.
21 Piter loe anghum tathuk moe, Kornelia mah patoeh ih kaminawk khaeah; khenah, na pakrong o ih kami loe kai hae ni: tih sak han ih maw nang zoh o? tiah a naa.
Then Peter went down to the men which were sent to him from Cornelius; and said, Behold, I am he whom you seek: what is the cause why you are come?
22 Nihcae mah, Kami katoeng, Sithaw zii kami, Judah kaminawk boih mah saiqat o ih misatuh cumvaito ukkung Kornerlia mah, nang to angmah im ah kawk moe, na thuih ih lok to tahngaih hanah, Sithaw mah kaciim van kami maeto rang hoiah lok a thuih pae, tiah a naa o.
And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man, and one that fears God, and of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned from God by an holy angel to send for you into his house, and to hear words of you.
23 To naah Piter mah nihcae to imthung ah kawk moe, anghaksak. Khawnbangah Piter loe nihcae hoi nawnto caeh, Joppa vangpui ah kaom nawkamya thoemtonawk doeh anih hnukah bang o.
Then called he them in, and lodged them. And on the morrow Peter went away with them, and certain brothers from Joppa accompanied him.
24 Khawnbangah Caesarea vangpui thungah akun o. Kornerlia loe angmah ih canawk hoi kangzong ampuinawk to kawk moe, nihcae to zing o.
And the morrow after they entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, and he had called together his kinsmen and near friends.
25 Piter imthung ah akun naah, Kornerlia mah anih to dawt moe, a khokkung ah tabok hoiah anih to bok.
And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him.
26 Toe Piter mah anih to pathawk, angthawk ah, kai doeh kami maeto toeng ni, tiah a naa.
But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.
27 Lok apaeh hoi pacoengah, Piter loe imthung ah akun, to naah pop parai amkhueng kaminawk to a hnuk.
And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.
28 Peter mah nihcae khaeah, minawk kalah hoi angkom moe, nawnto oh hae Judah kaminawk ih atawk na ai ni, tito na panoek o; toe kawbaktih kami khaeah doeh nang loe na ciimcai ai, nam hnong aak, tiah thuih han ai ah, Sithaw mah hmuen ang patuek boeh.
And he said to them, You know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come to one of another nation; but God has showed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.
29 To pongah kai nang kawk o naah, angaekhaih tidoeh om ai ah nangcae khaeah kang zoh: tih han ih maw kai haeah nang kawk o? tiah lokdueng han ka koeh, tiah a naa.
Therefore came I to you without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent you have sent for me?
30 To naah Kornerlia mah, Kalaem tangcae ni palito, vaihi tue thuem, atue takawtto naah, buhzah hoiah kaimah im ah lawk ka thuih; khenah, kampha kahni angkhuk kami maeto ka hma ah angdoet moe,
And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing,
31 kai khaeah, Kornerlia, lawk na thuihaih lok to thaih boeh, amtang kaminawk han na paqumh ih hmuennawk doeh Sithaw mah panoek boeh.
And said, Cornelius, your prayer is heard, and your alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
32 To pongah Joppa vangpui ah kami to patoeh ah loe, Piter, tiah ahmin kaom Simon to kawk ah; anih loe tuipui taengah kaom moihin sahkung, Simon im ah toemh: anih phak naah, nang hanah lokthui tih, tiah ang naa.
Send therefore to Joppa, and call here Simon, whose surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of one Simon a tanner by the sea side: who, when he comes, shall speak to you.
33 To pongah kami kang patoeh roep; haeah nang zoh hae paroeai hoih. To pongah Sithaw mah ang paek ih hmuennawk boih tahngaih hanah, kaicae loe vaihi Sithaw hmaa ah kang cuu o, tiah a naa.
Immediately therefore I sent to you; and you have well done that you are come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded you of God.
34 To pacoengah Piter mah lokthuih amtong, Sithaw loe mi kawbaktih ih mikhmai doeh khen ai, tiah thuih ih lok loe amsoem, tito vaihi ka panoek boeh;
Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:
35 toe zithaih tawn kami hoi toenghaih sah prae kaminawk boih to anih mah talawk.
But in every nation he that fears him, and works righteousness, is accepted with him.
36 Sithaw mah Israel caanawk khaeah patoeh ih lok mah, Jesu Kri rang hoiah monghaih lok to thuih: (anih loe kaminawk boih ih Angraeng ah oh: )
The word which God sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all: )
37 Johan mah tuinuemhaih lok thuih pacoengah, Kalili prae hoiah amtong moe, Judea prae boih ah thuih ih to tamthang lok to na panoek o boeh;
That word, I say, you know, which was published throughout all Judaea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;
38 Sithaw mah anih to oh thuih pongah, Sithaw mah Kacai Muithla hoi thacakhaih hoiah Nazareth Jesu to situi bawh, anih loe kahoih hmuennawk to sak moe, taqawk mah pacaekthlaek ih kaminawk doeh ngan a tuisak, tito na panoek o.
How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.
39 Kaicae loe anih mah Judah prae hoi Jerusalem ah sak ih hmuenawk boih hnukung ah ka oh o; Anih to thinglam pongah takhing o moe, hum o:
And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree:
40 Toe Sithaw mah ni thumto pacoengah Anih to pathawk let, Anih to kamnoek ah amtuengsak boeh;
Him God raised up the third day, and showed him openly;
41 Anih loe kaminawk boih khaeah amtueng ai, toe duekhaih thung hoi angthawk let pacoengah, angmah hoi buh nawnto kacaa Sithaw angmah qoih coek ih hnukungah kaom, kaicae khaeah ni amtueng.
Not to all the people, but to witnesses chosen before God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead.
42 Sithaw mah Anih hanah kadueh hoi kahing kaminawk lokcaekhaih to paek boeh, tiah kaminawk khaeah thuih moe, panoeksak hanah, kaicae khaeah lok ang paek.
And he commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead.
43 Mi kawbaktih doeh anih tang kami loe angmah ih ahmin rang hoiah zae tahmenhaih to hnu tih, tiah tahmaanawk boih mah thuih o boeh.
To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whoever believes in him shall receive remission of sins.
44 Piter mah hae loknawk thuih li naah, lok thaih kaminawk boih nuiah Kacai Muithla to krak tathuk.
While Peter yet spoke these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word.
45 Gentel kaminawk nuiah doeh Kacai Muithla tangqum to kraih pae toeng boeh pongah, Piter hoi nawnto angzo tangzat hin aat tangcaanawk loe dawnrai o.
And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost.
46 Nihcae mah kalah loknawk to apaeh o moe, Sithaw pakoeh o boeh, tito nihcae mah thaih o. To pacoengah Piter mah,
For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,
47 tuinuemhaih paek han ai ah, mi mah maw hae kaminawk hae pakaa thai tih? Kaicae mah talawk ih baktih toengah, nihcae mah doeh Kacai Muithla to talawk o toeng boeh, tiah a naa.
Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?
48 To pongah nihcae to Angraeng ih ahmin hoiah tuinuem hanah a thuih pae. To pacoengah nihcae mah Piter khaeah, ni nazetto thungah maw loe cam rae hanah, tahmenhaih hnik o.
And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.
