Luka 19
1 Jerikho te a kun thil tih a hil.
And Jesus entered and passed through Jericho.
2 Te vaengah hlang pakhat, a ming ah Zakkhaeus la a khue te lawt om. Anih tah mangmu boei neh kuirhang la om.
And, behold, there was a man named Zacchæus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.
3 Anih long khaw Jesuh te hmuh hamla a toem. Tedae a pumrho he merheh la a om dongah hlangping te aep thai pawh.
And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the press, because he was little of stature.
4 Tedae a khum ham te a om coeng dongah a hmai la a khal tih amah hmuh ham thaibah dongla yoeng.
And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that way.
5 Tekah hmuen la a pha vaengah Jesuh tah oeloe tih anih te, “Zakkhaeus, a loe la rhum, tihnin ah nang im ah ka naeh ham a kuek,” a ti nah.
And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zacchæus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy house.
6 Te dongah suntla tok tih Jesuh a doe te omngaih coeng.
And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully.
7 Boeih a hmuh uh vaengah cai uh tih, “Hlang tholh taengah pah hamla kun,” a ti uh.
And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, That he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner.
8 A pai neh Zakkhaeus loh Boeipa taengah, “Boeipa, Ka khuehtawn he rhakthuem he khodaeng rhoek ka paek. Hlang khat khat kah hno khat khat ni ka rhawt pah bal atah rhaepli la ka thuung coeng he,” a ti nah.
And Zacchæus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.
9 Te dongah anih te Jesuh loh, “Anih tah Abraham capa la a om van dongah tihnin ah tah khangnah loh he imkhui la pai coeng.
And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.
10 Hlang Capa ha pawk he aka poci te toem ham neh khang ham rhoe pai ni,” a ti.
For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
11 Jerusalem a pha tom vaengah a yaak neh Pathen kah ram a tueng hamla cai tomlael coeng tila a poek dongah nuettahnah pakhat te a thap tih a thui.
And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear.
12 Te dongah, “Tongpa hlangtang pakhat tah, a ram loh ham kho hla la cet tih ha voei hamla cai.
He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
13 Te dongah a sal hlangrha te a khue tih mina lungrha te amih taengah a paek. Te phoeiah amih te, ' Amah ka pawk hil thimpom uh,’ a ti nah.
And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come.
14 Tedae a pilnam rhoek loh anih te a hmuhuetuh. Te dongah amah hnukah laipai tloep a tueih uh tih, ' Kaimih soah a manghai ham he ka ngaih uh moenih,’ a ti na uh.
But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us.
15 Ram te a loh tih amah ha mael vaengah tah tangka a paek a sal rhoek te amah taengla a khue tih metla a thimpom uh khaw ming hamla a dawt.
And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.
16 Te vaengah aka pawk lamhma loh, ' Boeipa, nang kahmina pakhat te mina parha ka kum thil,’ a ti nah.
Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.
17 Te vaengah anih te, ' Then, sal then a yit dongah uepom la na om tih, kho parha soah saithainah aka khueh la om laeh,’ a ti nah.
And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities.
18 Aka pawk pabae long khaw, ' Nang kah, mina loh mina panga a sak boeipa,’ a ti nah.
And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.
19 Anih khaw, ' Nang loh kho panga om thil van,’ a ti nah.
And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.
20 Te phoeiah pakhat loh ha pawk tih, ' Boeipa, nang kah mina tah himbaica khuiah ka khueh tih ka tung he.
And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:
21 Dikkhih dikkhaeh hlang la na om dongah namah khaw kang rhih. Na khueh pawt te na phueih tih na tuh pawt te na ah,’ a ti nah.
For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow.
22 Anih te tah, ' Na ka lamkah vanbangla nang taengah ol ka tloek ni, sal thae aw, kai he dikkhih dikkhaeh hlang la ka om te na ming coeng. Ka khueh pawt te ka poh tih ka tuh pawt te ka ah het a?
And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow:
23 Te vaengah balae tih ka tangka te caboei dongla na tloeng pawh. Kai ka pawk vaengah a casai neh ka dang kolo mako,” a ti nah.
Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?
24 Te phoeiah aka pai rhoek te, ' Anih taengkah mina te lo uh lamtah mina lungrha aka khueh te pae uh,’ a ti nah.
And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath ten pounds.
25 Te vaengah anih te, ' Boeipa, mina parha a khueh ta,’ a ti na uh.
( And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.)
26 Nangmih taengah ka thui, Aka khueh boeih te a paek thil vetih, aka khueh pawt tah a khueh te khaw a loh pahni.
For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him.
27 Tedae amih soah kai manghai sak ham ngaih pawh ka rhal rhoek te pahoi hang khuen uh lamtah ka hmaiah ngawn uh,’ a ti nah,” te a thui pah.
But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.
28 Te te a thui phoeiah a hmai la cet tih Jerusalem la luei.
And when he had thus spoken, he went before, ascending up to Jerusalem.
29 Olives tlang a ti uh taengkah Bethphage neh Bethany te vat a pha vaengah hnukbang panit te a tueih tih,
And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
30 “Rhaldan kah kho la cet rhoi, a khuila na kun rhoi vaengah laakca a pael te na hmuh rhoi ni. Te soah hlang ngol noek pawt dae hlam lamtah hang khuen rhoi.
Saying, Go ye into the village over against you; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither.
31 khat loh nangmih rhoi te, ' Ba ham lae na hlam?' tila n' dawt atah, ' Boeipa loh a ngoe, ' ti nah,” a ti nah.
And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him.
32 Te dongah a tueih rhoi loh a caeh rhoi vaengah a ti nah bangla a hmuh rhoi.
And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said unto them.
33 laak ca te a hlam rhoi vaengah a boei loh amih rhoi te, “Balae tih laak ca te na hlam rhoi,” a ti nah.
And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt?
34 Te rhoi long khaw, “Boeipa loh a ngoe,” a ti nah.
And they said, The Lord hath need of him.
35 Te te Jesuh taengla a khuen rhoi. Te phoeiah laak ca te a himbai neh a khuk uh tih Jesuh te a soah a ngol sakuh.
And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Jesus thereon.
36 A caeh vaengah a himbai te long ah a phaih uh.
And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.
37 Olives tlang kah singling te a pha tom vaengah a thaomnah te hnukbang rhaengpuei loh pahoi boeih a hmuh uh. Te boeih nen te omngaih uh tih Pathen te ol neh rhuprhup a thangthen uh.
And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;
38 “Boeipa ming neh aka pawk manghai tah a yoethen, vaan ah ngaimongnah, thangpomnah tah a sangkoek ah om saeh,” a ti uh.
Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.
39 Te dongah hlangping lamkah Pharisee hlangvang loh amah te, “Saya, na hnukbang rhoek te toel lah,” a ti nah.
And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.
40 Tedae a doo tih, “Nangmih taengah ka thui, amih paa uh koinih lungto rhoek loh pang uh ni,” a ti nah.
And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.
41 Khopuei te a tueng tom vaengah a rhah thil.
And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,
42 “Tahae kah ngaimongnah he nang long khaw tihnin ah na ming koinih, tedae na mikhmuh lamloh a thuh coeng.
Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.
43 Khohnin loh nang taengla ha pawk vetih na rhal rhoek loh nang te vaam n'too thil ni. Te vaengah nang te n'dum vetih voeivang ah nang te ng' et ni.
For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,
44 Te phoeiah namah neh na khuikah na ca rhoek te a hnaa uh ni. Namamih kah hiphoelnah tue te na ming pawt yueng, na khuikah lungto sokah lungto pakhat pataeng hmaai uh mahpawh,” a ti nah.
And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
45 Bawkim la a kun neh hno aka yoi rhoek te a vai.
And he went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold therein, and them that bought;
46 Amih te, “' Ka im tah thangthuinah im la om ni, 'tila a daek coeng dae nangmih loh dingca rhoek kah khuirhung la na saii uh,” a ti nah.
Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves.
47 Te phoeiah hnin takuem bawkim khuiah om tih a thuituen. Tedae khosoihham rhoek, cadaek rhoek neh pilnam kah a congkhang long tah anih te poci sak ham a mae uh.
And he taught daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy him,
48 Tedae pilnam loh Jesuh te a hmaitoh tih boeih a hnatun dongah metla a saii uh ham khaw ming uh pawh.
And could not find what they might do: for all the people were very attentive to hear him.
