Luka 22
1 Yoom a ti uh vaidamding khotue tah yoei coeng.
The Feast of the Unleavened Bread, known as the Passover, was near.
2 Te vaengah khosoihham rhoek neh cadaek rhoek loh pilnam te loei a rhih uh dongah Jesuh metla ng'ngawn eh tila a mae uh.
The Chief Priest and the Teachers of the Law were looking for an opportunity of destroying Jesus, for they were afraid of the people.
3 Te vaengah Satan loh hlainit khuikah hlangmi pakhat la aka om Iskariot a ti uh Judas te a kun thil.
Now Satan took possession of Judas, who was known as Iscariot, and who belonged to the Twelve;
4 Te dongah cet tih amih taengla Jesuh metla a voeih ham khaw khosoihham rhoek neh imtawt boei rhoek te a voek.
and he went and discussed with the Chief Priests and Officers in charge at the Temple the best way of betraying Jesus to them.
5 Te vaengah a uem uh tih anih te tangka paek ham a kotluep uh.
They were glad of this, and agreed to pay him.
6 Ko a tluep puei tih, amih hlangping kah mikvoelh ah Jesuh voeih ham a tuethen te a dawn.
So Judas assented, and looked for an opportunity to betray Jesus to them, in the absence of a crowd.
7 Vaidamding khohnin tah a pha coeng. Te vaengah yoom te ngawn ham a kuek.
When the day of the Festival of the Unleavened Bread came, on which the Passover lambs had to be killed,
8 Te dongah Peter neh Johan te a tueh tih, “Cet rhoi lamtah mamih kah yoom n'caak ham te rhoekbah rhoi,” a ti nah.
Jesus sent forward Peter and John, saying to them: “Go and make preparations for our eating the Passover.”
9 Amih rhoi long khaw amah taengah, “Melam saii ham na ngaih?” a ti nah.
“Where do you wish us to make preparations?” they asked.
10 Jesuh loh amih rhoi te, “Khopuei la na kun rhoi vaengah, tuitang dongah tui aka phuei hlang pakhat loh nangmih rhoi te n'doe ni. Anih loh a kun thil im duela anih te vai rhoi ne.
“Listen,” he answered, “when you have got into the city, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you; follow him into whatever house he enters;
11 Te phoeiah im kungmah te, ' Nang taengah saya loh, ' Yinpanah tah melam a om, te ah te ka hnukbang rhoek te Yoom ka caak puei mai eh,’ a ti,’ ti nah.
and you shall say to the owner of the house ‘The Teacher says to you — Where is the room where I am to eat the Passover with my disciples?’
12 Anih loh imhman aka ka te a khoem tangtae la nangmih rhoi n'tueng bitni, te ah te rhoekbah rhoi,” a ti nah.
The man will show you a large upstairs room, set out; there make preparations.”
13 A caeh rhoi vaengah a ti nah bangla a hmuh rhoi tih Yoom te a rhoekbah rhoi.
So Peter and John went on, and found everything just as Jesus had told them, and they prepared the Passover.
14 A tue loh a pha vaengah, amah taengkah caeltueih rhoek te a ngol puei.
When the time came, Jesus took his place at table, and the Apostles with him.
15 Te phoeiah amih te, “Ka patang hlanah nangmih neh Yoom caak ham he thincavat la ka hue.
“I have most earnestly wished,” he said, “to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.
16 Nangmih taengah kan thui, Pathen kah ram ah a soep hlan atah he he ka ca voel mahpawh,” a ti nah.
For I tell you that I shall not eat it again, until it has had its fulfilment in the Kingdom of God.”
17 Boengloeng te a loh tih a uem phoeiah, “He he lo uh lamtah namamih te tael uh thae.
Then, on receiving a cup, after saying the thanksgiving, he said:
18 Nangmih taengah ka thui, tahae lamloh Pathen ram a pai hlan khuiah misur thaih te ka o voel mahpawh,” a ti nah.
“Take this and share it among you. For I tell you that I shall not, after to-day, drink of the juice of the grape, till the Kingdom of God has come.”
19 Vaidam te a loh tih a uem phoeiah a aeh tih amih te a paek. Te vaengah, “He tah nangmih hamla ka paek ka pum ni. Kai poekkoepnah neh he he saii uh,” a ti nah.
Then Jesus took some bread, and, after saying the thanksgiving, broke it and gave to them, with the words: “This is my body, [which is now to be given on your behalf. Do this in memory of me.”]
20 Te vanbangla boengloeng te khaw a vael uh tih, “He boengloeng tah ka thii dongkah paipi thai ni, te tah nangmih ham long coeng.
[And in the same way with the cup, after supper, saying: “This cup is the New Covenant made by my blood which is being poured out on your behalf. ]
21 Tedae caboei dongah kamah aka om puei kah a kut loh kamah m'voeih coeng he.
Yet see! the hand of the man that is betraying me is beside me upon the table!
22 Hlang Capa tah a hmoel tangtae bangla cet pai dae, anih dongah hlang aka voei hlang te tah anunae,” a ti.
True, the Son of Man is passing, by the way ordained for him, yet alas for that man by whom he is being betrayed!”
23 Te dongah te bang saii hamla aka caii te amih lakli ah u lam nim a pawk ve tila amamih khuiah koe oelh uh thae.
Then they began questioning one another which of them it could be that was going to do this.
24 Te vaengah amih khuiah tanglue la om ham aka koih te unim tila, amamih khuiah tuituknah khaw om.
And a dispute arose among them as to which of them was to be regarded as the greatest.
25 Tedae amih taengah Jesuh loh, “Namtom manghai rhoek loh amih a tulnoi uh tih a buem rhapsat te hlangrhoei rhoek la a khue uh.
Jesus, however, said: “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their oppressors are styled ‘Benefactors.’
26 Tedae nangmih tah te tlam moenih, nangmih khuiah aka tanglue loh a noe bangla om saeh, hlang aka mawt long khaw aka thotat la om saeh.
But with you it must not be so. No, let the greatest among you become like the youngest, and him who leads like him who serves.
27 Te dongah aka vael neh aka thothat khuiah ulae aka tanglue? Aka vael te moenih a? Tedae kai tah nangmih lakli ah aka thotat lam ni ka om.
Which is the greater — the master at the table or his servant? Is not it the master at the table? Yet I myself am among you as one who serves.
28 Nangmih tah kai kah cuekhalhnah khuikah he kai neh aka tukkai la na om uh.
You are the men who have stood by me in my trials;
29 Ram te a pa loh kai taengah a hal bangla nangmih taengah kai loh kang hal coeng.
and, just as my Father has assigned me a Kingdom, I assign you places,
30 Te daengah ni ka ram kah ka caboei dongah na caak na ok uh eh. Te vaengah Israel kah lai aka tloek koca hlainit te ngolkhoel soah na ngol thil uh ni.
so that you may eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom, and be seated upon twelve thrones as judges of the twelve tribes of Israel.
31 Simon, Simon, Satan loh cang bangla hlaih ham nangmih n'laem coeng te.
Simon! Simon! listen. Satan demanded leave to sift you all like wheat,
32 Kai tah nang kah tangnah te a muei pawt ham ni nang ham ka thangthui. Tedae na bal vaengah na manuca rhoek te duel nawn,” a ti nah.
but I prayed for you, Simon, that your faith should not fail. And you, when you have returned to me, are to strengthen your Brothers.”
33 Tedae Simon loh, “Boeipa, namah nen tah thongim neh duek paan ham khaw sikim la ka om ngawn,” a ti nah.
“Master,” said Peter, “with you I am ready to go both to prison and to death.”
34 Jesuh loh, “Peter, namah taengah kan thui, kai hmat hamla voeithum na huek uh hlan atah tihnin ah ai khong mahpawh,” a ti nah.
“I tell you, Peter,” replied Jesus, “the cock will not crow to-day till you have disowned all knowledge of me three times.”
35 Te phoeiah amih te, Sungsa neh khokhom khuen kolla nangmih kan tueih vaengah pakhat khaw na hlavawt uh pawt nim?,” a ti nah. Te vaengah amih loh,” Om pawh,” a ti uh.
Then he said to them all: “When I sent you out as my Messengers, without either purse, or bag, or sandals, were you in need of anything?” “No; nothing,” they answered.
36 Te phoeiah amih te, “Tedae tahae atah, sungkoi aka khueh loh khuen saeh, sungsa khaw khuen saeh. Aka khueh pawt loh a himbai te yoi saeh lamtah cunghang lai saeh.
“Now, however,” he said, “he who has a purse must take it and his bag as well; and he who has not must sell his cloak and buy a sword.
37 Nangmih ham kan thui, a daek tangtae te kai soah a soep ham a kuek. 'Anih te lailak rhoek neh a tae thil,’ a ti, kai kawng loh hmakhah a pha,” a ti nah.
For, I tell you, that passage of Scripture must be fulfilled in me, which says — ‘He was counted among the godless’; indeed all that refers to me is finding its fulfilment.”
38 Te vaengah amih loh, “Boeipa, cunghang yungnit om he,” a ti nauh. Te dongah Jesuh loh amih te, “Rhoeh coeng te,” a ti nah.
“Master,” they exclaimed, “look, here are two swords!” “Enough!” said Jesus.
39 A khosing vanbangla cet tih Olive tlang te a paan. Te vaengah hnukbang rhoek long khaw anih te a vai uh.
Jesus then went out, and made his way as usual to the Mount of Olives, followed by his disciples.
40 A hmuen a pha vaengah amih te, “Cuekhalhnah khuiah kun pawt ham thangthui uh,” a ti nah.
And, when he reached the spot, he said to them: “Pray that you may not fall into temptation.”
41 Te phoeiah Jesuh tah amih taeng lamloh lungto dongat tluk ah khoe uh tih, khuklu cungkueng neh thangthui.
Then he withdrew about a stone’s throw, and knelt down and began to pray.
42 Te vaengah, “A pa, na ngaih atah boengloeng he, kai taeng lamkah loh khoe mai. Tedae kai kongaih boel saeh lamtah namah kongaih la om saeh,” a ti.
“Father,” he said, “if it is thy pleasure, spare me this cup; only, not my will but thine be done.”
43 Te vaengah vaan lamkah puencawn te a taengah phoe tih anih te thaa a cong pah.
Presently there appeared to him an angel from Heaven, who strengthened him.
44 A thangthui te khaw thingthuelnah la mat a om pah. A hlantui khaw a thii cip bangla a om pah tih diklai la a bo pah.
And, as his anguish became intense, he prayed still more earnestly, while his sweat was like great drops of blood falling on the ground.
45 Thangthuinah lamloh thoo tih hnukbang rhoek taengla a pawk vaengah a kothaenah lamloh a ih uh te a hmuh.
Then he rose from praying, and came to the disciples and found them sleeping for sorrow.
46 Te dongah amih te, “Balae tih, na ih uh? Thoo uh lamtah thangthui uh, te daengah ni cuekhalhnah khuila na kun uh pawt eh?,” a ti nah.
“Why are you asleep?” he asked them. “Rise and pray, that you may not fall into temptation.”
47 A thui vaengah hlangping tarha ha pawk. Te vaengah hlainit khuikah pakhat Judas a ti long te amih hmaiah a lamhma pah tih Jesuh te mok hamla a paan.
While he was still speaking, a crowd appeared in sight, led by the man called Judas, who was one of the Twelve. Judas approached Jesus, to kiss him;
48 Tedae Jesuh loh amah te, “Judas, moknah mai neh hlang capa te na voeih nama?” a ti nah.
on which Jesus said to him: “Judas, is it by a kiss that you betray the Son of Man?”
49 A taengkah rhoek loh a hmuh uh vaengah aka om ham te, “Boeipa, cunghang neh ka boeng uh koinih ta,” a ti nauh.
But when those who were round Jesus saw what was going to happen, they exclaimed: “Master, shall we use our swords?”
50 Te dongah amih khuikah pakhat loh khosoihham kah sal te a boeng tih a bantang hna a pat pah.
And one of them struck the High Priest’s servant and cut off his right ear;
51 Tedae Jesuh loh a doo tih, “Te te hlah laeh,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah a hna te a taek pah tih a hoeih sak.
on which Jesus said: “Let me at least do this”; and, touching his ear, he healed the wound.
52 Te phoeiah Jesuh loh amah taengla aka pawk khosoihham rhoek neh bawkim kah imtawt boei rhoek, patong rhoek taengah, “Dingca a, cunghang neh thingboeng neh na caeh thil uh.
Then, turning to the Chief Priests and Officers in charge at the Temple and Councillors, who had come for him, he said: “Have you come out, as if after a robber, with swords and clubs?
53 Hnin takuem bawkim khuiah nangmih taengah ka om tih, kai soah kut na thueng uh moenih. Tedae tahae tue neh yinnah kah saithainah tah nangmih ah om,” a ti nah.
When I was with you day after day in the Temple Courts, you did not lay hands on me; but now your time has come, and the power of Darkness.”
54 Jesuh te a tuuk uh phoeiah a mawt uh tih khosoihham im khuila a khuen uh. Tedae Peter long tah soeisoei a vai.
Those who had taken Jesus prisoner took him away into the house of the High Priest. Peter followed at a distance.
55 Te vaengah imtol kah a laklung ah hmai a toih uh tih a ngoltun uh hatah Peter khaw amih lakli ah ngol van.
But, when they had lit a fire in the centre of the court-yard and had all sat down there, Peter seated himself in the middle of them.
56 Tedae hmaivang ah aka ngol salnu pakhat loh anih a hmuh vaengah a hmaitang tih, “He khaw he anih taengah om,” a ti nah.
Presently a maidservant saw him sitting near the blaze of the fire. Fixing her eyes on him, she said: “Why, this man was one of his companions!”
57 Tedae Peter loh basa tih, “Anih, ka ming moenih, huta,” a ti nah.
But Peter denied it. “I do not know him,” he replied.
58 Rhaih a om phoeiah pakhat loh anih te hmuh tih, “Nang khaw amih taengah na om van,” a ti nah. Tedae Peter loh, “Hlang khaw he, kai ka om moenih,” a ti nah.
A little while afterwards some one else — a man — saw him and said: “Why, you are one of them!” “No,” Peter said, “I am not.”
59 Khonoek pakhat tluk a koe phoeiah a tloe pakhat loh, “Oltak ni, he khaw anih taengah om ta, amah khaw Galilee hlang ni, “rhap a ti nah.
About an hour later another man declared positively: “This man also was certainly with him. Why, he is a Galilean!”
60 Tedae Peter loh, “Hlang khaw he, banim na thui ka ming moenih,” a ti nah. Te tlam te a thui li vaengah ai pahoi khong.
But Peter said: “I do not know what you are speaking about.” Instantly, while he was still speaking, a cock crowed.
61 Te vaengah Peter te Boeipa loh a mael thil tih a sawt. Te daengah, ' Tihnin kah ai a khong hlanah kai voeithum nan huek uh tak ni,” a ti nah vaengkah Boeipa ol te Peter loh a thoelh.
And the Master turned and looked at Peter; and Peter remembered the words that the Master had said to him — “Before a cock has crowed to-day, you will disown me three times”;
62 Te dongah phawn cet tih hlawk hlawk rhap.
and he went outside and wept bitterly.
63 Jesuh te hlang rhoek loh a et uh phoeiah a tamdaeng uh tih a boh uh.
The men that held Jesus kept making sport of him and beating him.
64 Amah te a khuk uh tih a dawt uh vaengah, “Nang aka bael te unim phong lah,” a ti nauh.
They blindfolded him and then questioned him. “Now play the Prophet,” they said; “who was it that struck you?”
65 A tloe nen khaw muep a salpham uh tih anih te a voek uh.
And they heaped many other insults on him.
66 Khothaih a pha vaengah pilnam kah kangham rhoek, khosoihham rhoek neh cadaek rhoek te tingtun uh. Te phoeiah Jesuh te amamih kah khoboei taengla a khuen uh.
At daybreak the National Council met — both the Chief Priests and the Teachers of the Law — and took Jesus before their High Council.
67 Te vaengah, “Khrih la na om atah kaimih taengah thui laeh,” a ti nauh. Tedae amih te, “Nangmih taengah kan thui cakhaw na tangnah uh loengloeng mahpawh.
“If you are the Christ,” they said, “tell us so.” “If I tell you,” replied Jesus, “you will not believe me;
68 Kan dawt bal cakhaw nan doo uh loengloeng mahpawh.
and, if I question you, you will not answer.
69 Tahae lamkah hlang capa tah Pathen kah thaomnah bantang ah aka ngol la om pueng ni,” a ti nah.
But from this hour ‘the Son of Man will be seated on the right hand of God Almighty.’”
70 Tedae hlang boeih loh, “Nang tah Pathen capa la na om van a?” a ti nauh. Te dongah Jesuh loh amih te, “Ka om te na thui uh coeng,” a ti nah.
“Are you, then, the Son of God?” they all asked. “It is true,” answered Jesus, “I am.”
71 Te vaengah amih loh, “Laipai a ngoe pueng a te? A ka lamkah te mamih loh n'yaak uh coeng,” a ti uh.
At this they exclaimed: “Why do we want any more evidence? We have heard it ourselves from his own lips!”
