1 Te phoeikah a thum hnin ah Galilee kah Kana ah yulueinah om, tih Jesuh kah a manu khaw khoem om.
And the third day a marriage happened in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there,
2 Te vaengah Jesuh neh a hnukbang rhoek tah yulueinah ah rhen a khue.
and also Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage;
3 Te vaengah misurtui vawt tih Jesuh kah a manu loh Jesuh taengah, “Misurtui a khueh uh voel moenih,” a ti nah.
and wine having failed, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, 'Wine they have not;'
4 Tedae Jesuh loh a manu taengah, “Huta, nang neh kai taengah balae aka om? Kai kah a tue te ha pawk hlan,” a ti nah.
Jesus saith to her, 'What — to me and to thee, woman? not yet is mine hour come.'
5 A manu loh tueihyoeih rhoek te, “Nangmih taengah a thui te tah saii uh,” a ti nah.
His mother saith to the ministrants, 'Whatever he may say to you — do.'
6 Te vaengah Judah rhoek kah a khueh uh cimcaihnah ham lungto amrhaeng parhuk tah tapkhoeh om. Te dongah doh nit neh doh thum tah rhip ael.
And there were there six water-jugs of stone, placed according to the purifying of the Jews, holding each two or three measures.
7 Jesuh loh amih taengah, “Amrhaeng te tui koei uh,” a ti nah. Te dongah te rhoek te malh a koei uh.
Jesus saith to them, 'Fill the water-jugs with water;' and they filled them — unto the brim;
8 Te phoeiah amih te, “Duek uh lamtah taemkung taengla khuen uh laeh,” a ti nah tih a khuen uh tangloeng.
and he saith to them, 'Draw out, now, and bear to the director of the apartment;' and they bare.
9 Taemkung loh misurtui la aka poeh tui te a ten dae me lamkah a thoeng khaw ming pawh. Tedae tui aka duek tueihyoeih rhoek loh a ming.
And as the director of the apartment tasted the water become wine, and knew not whence it is, (but the ministrants knew, who have drawn the water, ) the director of the feast doth call the bridegroom,
10 Te dongah taemkung loh yulokung amah te a khue tih, “Hlang boeih loh misurtui a huem te lamhma la a tawn tih a rhui uh vaengah a dudap te a tawn uh. Nang tah tahae duela misurtui a huem te na paih,” a ti nah.
and saith to him, 'Every man, at first, the good wine doth set forth; and when they may have drunk freely, then the inferior; thou didst keep the good wine till now.'
11 Jesuh loh miknoek a saii te Galilee kah Kana ah a tongcuek tih amah kah thangpomnah te a phoe. Te dongah a hnukbang rhoek loh amah te a tangnah uh.
This beginning of the signs did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested his glory, and his disciples believed in him;
12 Te phoeiah amah loh a manu, a mana rhoek, a hnukbang rhoek te Kapernaum la a suntlak puei. Tedae khohnin a sen pahoi a rhaeh uh moenih.
after this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples; and there they remained not many days.
13 Judah rhoek kah yoom tah om tom tih Jesuh khaw Jerusalem la cet.
And the passover of the Jews was nigh, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem,
14 Bawkim ah vaito, tu, vahu, aka yoi rhoek neh tangkatho rhoek a ngol uh te a hmuh.
and he found in the temple those selling oxen, and sheep, and doves, and the money-changers sitting,
15 Te dongah rhui te rhuihet la a saii tih tu neh vaito te bawkim khui lamloh boeih a vai. Te phoeiah tangkathung rhoek kah tangka te a hawk pah tih caboei te boeih a palet pah.
and having made a whip of small cords, he put all forth out of the temple, also the sheep, and the oxen; and of the money-changers he poured out the coins, and the tables he overthrew,
16 Te phoeiah vahu aka yoi rhoek te, “He rhoek he vawl khuenuh. A pa kah im he hnoyoih im la saii uh boeh,” a ti nah.
and to those selling the doves he said, 'Take these things hence; make not the house of my Father a house of merchandise.'
17 Na im kah kosi loh kai n'yoop ni tila a daek tangtae aka om te a hnukbang rhoek loh a poek uh.
And his disciples remembered that it is written, 'The zeal of Thy house did eat me up;'
18 Te vaengah Judah rhoek loh amah te a dawt uh tih, “He rhoek he na saii dongah me bang miknoek lae kaimih nan tueng eh?” a ti nauh.
the Jews then answered and said to him, 'What sign dost thou shew to us — that thou dost these things?'
19 Jesuh loh amih te a doo tih, “Hekah Bawkim he phae uh lamtah a thum hnin ah ka thoh ni,” a ti nah.
Jesus answered and said to them, 'Destroy this sanctuary, and in three days I will raise it up.'
20 Te dongah Judah rhoek loh, “Hekah Bawkim tah kum sawmli kum rhuk a sak uh dae nang loh hnin thum ah na thoh ayaw te?” a ti nah.
The Jews, therefore, said, 'Forty and six years was this sanctuary building, and wilt thou in three days raise it up?'
21 Te tah amah pum kah bawkim kawng ni a thui dae.
but he spake concerning the sanctuary of his body;
22 Te dongah duek lamkah a thoh daengah ni a thui he khaw a hnukbang rhoek loh a poek uh. Te veangah Jesuh loh a thui olka neh cacim te a tangnah uh.
when, then, he was raised out of the dead, his disciples remembered that he said this to them, and they believed the Writing, and the word that Jesus said.
23 Khotue kah yoom vaengah tah Jerusalem ah om tih amah ming te muep a tangnah uh. Amah kah miknoek a saii te khaw a hmuh uh.
And as he was in Jerusalem, in the passover, in the feast, many believed in his name, beholding his signs that he was doing;
24 Tedae Jesuh loh boeih a ming dongah amah neh amah te amih taengah pumpae rhep pawh.
and Jesus himself was not trusting himself to them, because of his knowing all [men],
25 Hlang kawng te pakhat khaw phong ham a ngoe moenih, amah loh hlang khuikah aka om te a ming.
and because he had no need that any should testify concerning man, for he himself was knowing what was in man.
