Luka 13
1 Amah a khoning vaengah Pilat loh hmueih neh Galilee rhoek kah thii a thoek te hlangvang aka om rhoek loh Jesuh taengla puen uh.
And there were present certain at that time, telling him about the Galileans, whose blood Pilate did mingle with their sacrifices;
2 Te dongah amih te a doo tih, “Te te a yook uh dongah Galilee rhoek tah Galilee rhoek boeih lakah hlangtholh la om tila na poek uh a?
and Jesus answering said to them, 'Think ye that these Galileans became sinners beyond all the Galileans, because they have suffered such things?
3 Moenih ta, nangmih taengah kan thui, na yut uh pawt atah boeih na poci uh van ni.
No — I say to you, but, if ye may not reform, all ye even so shall perish.
4 Siloam kah imsang loh a bung thil tih aka duek hlairhet rhoek te ta. Amih tah Jerusalem khosa hlang boeih lakah hlangtholh ni tila na poek uh a?
'Or those eighteen, on whom the tower in Siloam fell, and killed them; think ye that these became debtors beyond all men who are dwelling in Jerusalem?
5 Moeinih ta, nangmih taengah ka thui, na yut uh pawt atah boeih na poci uh van ni,” a ti nah.
No — I say to you, but, if ye may not reform, all ye in like manner shall perish.'
6 Te phoeiah nuettahnah a thui bal. “Amah dum ah thaibu aka ling hlang pakhat om tih, a thaih hoel hamla ha pawk hatah hah a sawt.
And he spake this simile: 'A certain one had a fig-tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit in it, and he did not find;
7 Te dongah dumpho taengah, 'Kum thum khuiah ka lo tih hekah thaibu dongah a thaih ka hoel dae hah ka sawt coeng he. Te dongah vung laeh, ba ham lae te nen te diklai a kang eh?,’ a ti nah.
and he said unto the vine-dresser, Lo, three years I come seeking fruit in this fig-tree, and do not find, cut it off, why also the ground doth it render useless?
8 Tedae anih te a doo tih, “Boeipa, te te pin ka to li tih aek ka sang hil tah kum at he khaw hlun mai.
'And he answering saith to him, Sir, suffer it also this year, till that I may dig about it, and cast in dung;
9 Thanghal a pha atah a thaih khaw cuen mai ni ta, a thaih pawt bal atah na vung mai bitni,” a ti nah.
and if indeed it may bear fruit —; and if not so, thereafter thou shalt cut it off.'
10 Sabbath vaengah tunim pakhat ah om tih a thuituen.
And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath,
11 Te vaengah kum hlairhet ah ngoicaemnah mueihla aka kaem huta te pakcak ha thoeng. Anih te ting khun la om coeng tih khuek pai thai pawh.
and lo, there was a woman having a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and she was bowed together, and not able to bend back at all,
12 Anih te a hmuh vaengah Jesuh loh a khue tih amah taengah, “Huta, Na ngoicaemnah te na hlah coeng,” a ti nah.
and Jesus having seen her, did call [her] near, and said to her, 'Woman, thou hast been loosed from thy infirmity;'
13 Te phoeiah huta te kut a tloeng thil hatah pahoi a dueng pah dongah Pathen te a thangpom.
and he laid on her [his] hands, and presently she was set upright, and was glorifying God.
14 Tedae Jesuh loh Sabbath vaengah a hoeih sak te tamtaeng loh a yakdam. Te dongah hlangping te a doo tih, “Hnin rhuk a om khuiah a saii ham te a kuek, te vaengah ha pawk kanoek vetih na hoeih uh mako, Sabbath hnin ah pawt mako,” a ti nah.
And the chief of the synagogue answering — much displeased that on the sabbath Jesus healed — said to the multitude, 'Six days there are in which it behoveth [us] to be working; in these, then, coming, be healed, and not on the sabbath-day.'
15 Te dongah anih te Boeipa loh a doo tih, “Hlangthai palat rhoek! nangmih pakhat rhip loh Sabbath ah a vaito neh muli-marhang te khongduk lamkah a hlam tih tui tul ham a khuen uh moenih a?
Then the Lord answered him and said, 'Hypocrite, doth not each of you on the sabbath loose his ox or ass from the stall, and having led away, doth water [it]?
16 Anih he Abraham canu la om dae ta. Amah he Satan loh kum hlai rhet a pin coeng ta he. Te dongah Sabbath khohnin ah he hloong dong lamkah loh hlam ham a kuek moenih a?,” a ti nah.
and this one, being a daughter of Abraham, whom the Adversary bound, lo, eighteen years, did it not behove to be loosed from this bond on the sabbath-day?'
17 He he a thui vaengah, anih aka kingkalh rhoek boeih tah yah a poh uh. Tedae hlangping boeih tah amah loh rhuepom la boeih a thoeng sak soah omngaih.
And he saying these things, all who were opposed to him were being ashamed, and all the multitude were rejoicing over all the glorious things that are being done by him.
18 Te dongah koep a thui tih, “Balae Pathen kah ram phek la aka om?
And he said, 'To what is the reign of God like? and to what shall I liken it?
19 Tedae metlam ka thuidoek eh te? Te te mukang mu phek la om. Te te hlang loh a loh tih a dum ah a haeh. Tedae a rhoeng vaengah thing la poeh tih vaan kah vaa loh a hlaeng dongah bu a tuk,” a ti nah.
It is like to a grain of mustard, which a man having taken, did cast into his garden, and it increased, and came to a great tree, and the fowls of the heavens did rest in its branches.'
20 Te phoeiah, “Ka thuidoek thil ham Pathen kah ram te tah tolrhu phek la om.
And again he said, 'To what shall I liken the reign of God?
21 Te te huta loh a loh tih vaidam khoi thum boeih a rhoi hil khaw a hlum thil,” koep a ti.
It is like leaven, which a woman, having taken, did hide in three measures of meal, till that all was leavened.'
22 Khopuei vangca ah pah tih a thuituen phoeiah tah Jerusalem la a caeh long a tarhoek.
And he was going through cities and villages, teaching, and making progress toward Jerusalem;
23 Te vaengah hlang pakhat loh a taengah, “Boeipa, te rhoek ca bueng khang koinih,” a ti nah.
and a certain one said to him, 'Sir, are those saved few?' and he said unto them,
24 Te dongah Jesuh loh amih te, “Thohka caek longah kun hamla thingthuel uh lah. Nangmih taengah ka thui, a yet loh kun hamla a toem uh suidae noeng uh mahpawh.
'Be striving to go in through the straight gate, because many, I say to you, will seek to go in, and shall not be able;
25 Imkung loh thoo tih thohka a khaih nen tah, poeng ah na pai uh pahoi vetih thohka te na khoek uh ni. Te vaengah, 'Boeipa, kaimih ham ong dae, ' na ti uh ni. Tedae nangmih te n'doo vaengah, 'Nangmih me kah aka om rhoek nim? kam ming moenih,’ a ti ni.
from the time the master of the house may have risen up, and may have shut the door, and ye may begin without to stand, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, lord, open to us, and he answering shall say to you, I have not known you whence ye are,
26 Te vaengah, 'Namah taengah ka caak ka ok uh tih, kaimih kah toltung ah na thuituen ta,’ na ti uh ni.
then ye may begin to say, We did eat before thee, and did drink, and in our broad places thou didst teach;
27 Tedae nangmih taengah a thui vetih, 'Nangmih mekah aka om rhoek nim kam ming moenih, boethae kah bibikung rhoek kai taeng lamkah loh boeih nong uh,’ a ti ni.
and he shall say, I say to you, I have not known you whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of the unrighteousness.
28 Te ah te rhah neh no rhuengnah ni aka om eh. Pathen kah ram ah Abraham, Isaak, Jakob neh tonghma rhoek te boeih na hmuh uh vaengah nangmih te phawn n'thaek uh ni.
'There shall be there the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth, when ye may see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the reign of God, and yourselves being cast out without;
29 Te vaengah khocuk neh khotlak lamkah, tlangpuei neh tuithim lamkah loh ha pawk uh vetih Pathen kah ram ah ngolhlung uh ni.
and they shall come from east and west, and from north and south, and shall recline in the reign of God,
30 A hnuk la aka om rhoek te lamhma la om uh vetih, lamhma la aka om rhoek te a hnuk la om uh ni ke,” a ti nah.
and lo, there are last who shall be first, and there are first who shall be last.'
31 Amah tekah a tue vaengah Pharisee pakhat loh Jesuh te a paan tih, “Khoe uh lamtah cet dingdoeng laeh, Herod loh nang ngawn ham a ngaih,” a ti nah.
On that day there came near certain Pharisees, saying to him, 'Go forth, and be going on hence, for Herod doth wish to kill thee;'
32 Te dongah amih te, “Cet uh lamtah maetang te thui pa uh, rhaithae ka haek tih tihnin ah hoeihnah ka saii he thangvuen neh omvai ah ka coeng ni.
and he said to them, 'Having gone, say to this fox, Lo, I cast forth demons, and perfect cures to-day and to-morrow, and the third [day] I am being perfected;
33 Tedae kai ham tihnin neh thangvuen te khaw a kuek dongah caeh hamla om. Jerusalem voel ah tonghma sai a caeh te yae boel saeh.
but it behoveth me to-day, and to-morrow, and the [day] following, to go on, because it is not possible for a prophet to perish out of Jerusalem.
34 Jerusalem, Jerusalem, tonghma rhoek te aka ngawn tih a taengla a tueih pah rhoek te khaw aka dae, ainu loh a phae hmuiah a aicahui khoep a ku vaengkah a longim bangla, na ca rhoek te ka kholcui ham ka ngaih taitu dae na ngaih uh pawh.
'Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that is killing the prophets, and stoning those sent unto her, how often did I will to gather together thy children, as a hen her brood under the wings, and ye did not will.
35 Na im te nangmih taengla han hlah coeng he. Tedae nangmih ham ni ka thui. Boeipa ming neh aka pawk tah a yoethen, ' na ti uh tue te ha pawk duela kai nan hmuh uh loengloeng mahpawh,” a ti nah.
'Lo, your house is being left to you desolate, and verily I say to you — ye may not see me, till it may come, when ye may say, Blessed [is] he who is coming in the name of the Lord.'
