< Luka 8 >

1 Te a poeng phoeiah amah loh khopuei boeih neh vangca patoeng a hil. Te vaengah Pathen ram te a hoe tih a olthangthen a thui. A hnukbang hlainit loh anih te a pueiuh.
And it came about, after a short time, that he went through town and country giving the good news of the kingdom of God, and with him were the twelve,
2 Mueihla thae, vawtthoeknah lamkah aka hoeih tangtae la aka om huta hlangvang rhoek, a khui lamkah rhaithae parhih loh a nong tak Magdala la a khue Mary,
And certain women who had been made free from evil spirits and diseases, Mary named Magdalene, from whom seven evil spirits had gone out,
3 Herod buhtaem Chuza yuu Joanna, Susanna neh a tloe rhoek khaw muep lo uh tih amih loh Jesuh khaw a hnukbang rhoek te khaw a khuehtawn neh a bongyong uh.
And Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod's chief house-servant, and Susanna and a number of others, who gave him of their wealth for his needs.
4 Khopuei takuem kah hlangping te muep capit uh tih a taengla ha pawk uh.
And when a great number of people came together, and men from every town went out to him, he gave them teaching in the form of a story:
5 Te vaengah nuettahnah neh, “Cangti aka tuh tah a cangtii tuh hamla cet. Tedae a tuh vaengah a ngen tah long taengah tla. Te dongah a taelh uh tih vaan kah vaa loh a kueh.
A man went out to put in seed, and while he was doing it, some was dropped by the wayside and it was crushed under foot, and was taken by the birds of heaven.
6 A tloe rhoek tah lungpang soah tla dae, laiyuem a om pawt dongah a poe neh pahoi koh.
And some went on the rock, and when it came up it became dry and dead because it had no water.
7 A tloe rhoek tah hling puem ah tla tih, a rhoeng vaengah hling loh a thing.
And some went among thorns, and the thorns came up with it and it had no room for growth.
8 A tloe te lai then dongah tla tih, a poe vaengah a vuei yakhat lam khaw thoeng,” a ti. Te phoeiah te, “Yaak nah hna aka khueh loh ya saeh,” a ti nah tih a doek.
And some falling on good earth, came up and gave fruit a hundred times as much. And with these words he said in a loud voice, He who has ears, let him give ear.
9 Te dongah nuettahnah loh metla a om te a hnukbang rhoek loh amah a dawt uh.
And his disciples put questions to him about the point of the story.
10 Te dongah, “Pathen ram kah olhuep he ming hamla nangmih m'paek coeng. Te phoeiah a hmuh uh vaengah a hmat uh pawt ham, a yaak uh dae a hmuhming uh pawt ham ni nuettahnah neh ka hlihloeh sak.
And he said, To you is given knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God; but to the others, they are given in stories, so that seeing, they may not see, and though they give hearing, the sense will not be clear to them.
11 Nuettahnah tah he tlam ni a om. Cangtii tah Pathen kah olka ni.
Now this is the point of the story: The seed is the word of God.
12 A yaak uh vaengah amih a khang ham te tangnah boel saeh tila, rhaithae te ha pawk tih a thinko kah olka a rhawt pah rhoek tah, long taengkah rhoek la om uh.
Those by the side of the road are those who have given hearing; then the Evil One comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not have faith and get salvation.
13 Lungpang sokah rhoek te tah olka te a yaak uh vaengah omngaihnah neh a doeuh. Tedae te rhoek te a yung om pawh. Amih loh a tue kolkalh ham a tangnah uh tih noemcainah tue vaengah tah nong uh.
And those on the rock are those who with joy give hearing to the word; but having no root, they have faith for a time, and when the test comes they give up.
14 Hling puem kah aka tla rhoek, amih khaw aka ya tangtae rhoek ni. Tedae a pongpa vaengah mawntangnah, khuehtawn neh khosaknah omthenbawn loh a thing tih tak pawh.
And those which went among thorns are those who have given hearing, and go on their way, but they are overcome by cares and wealth and the pleasures of life, and they give no fruit.
15 Lai then dongkah rhoek, amih rhoek tah thinko then neh a then la aka om rhoek ni. Te dongah ol a yaak uh te a dueh uh tih uehnah neh thaihtak uh.
And those in the good earth are those who, having given ear to the word, keep it with a good and true heart, and in quiet strength give fruit.
16 Hmaiim a tok te hnopai neh aka dah, thingkong hmuiah aka det he a om moenih. Tedae aka kun rhoek te vangnah hmuh sak ham hmaitung soah ni a khueh.
No man, when the light is lighted, puts a cover over it, or puts it under a bed, but he puts it on its table, so that those who come in may see the light.
17 A huephael la aka om te mingpha la a om mueh moenih. A huep te khaw mingpha mueh pawt tih mingpha la a pawk mueh moenih.
For nothing is put out of view which will not be made clear, and nothing is secret of which the knowledge will not come to light.
18 Te dongah metla na yaak uh khaw hmuminguh. Aka khueh te tah a a taengla a paek ni. Tedae aka khueh pawt te tah a taengah a khueh la a ngai te khaw a loh pah ni,” a ti nah.
So take care how you give hearing, for to him who has will be given, and from him who has not will be taken even what he seems to have.
19 Jesuh te a manu neh a mana rhoek loh a paan. Tedae hlangping dongah anih te hum uh thai pawh.
And his mother and his brothers came to him, and they were not able to get near him because of the great number of people.
20 Te dongah amah te, “Na nu neh na mana rhoek loh nang hmuh ham la a ngaih uh tih poeng ah pai uh,” tila a puen pah.
And someone said to him, Your mother and your brothers are outside desiring to see you.
21 Tedae Jesuh loh amih te a doo tih, “Pathen kah olka a yaak tih aka saii rhoek tah ka manu neh ka manuca la om uh,” a ti nah.
But he said to them in answer, My mother and my brothers are those who have knowledge of the word of God and do it.
22 Hnin at vaengah Jesuh tah a hnukbang neh lawng khuila kun. Te phoeiah amih te, “Tuili kah rhalvangan la kat uh sih,” a ti nah tih kat uh.
Now it came about on one of those days that he got into a boat with his disciples; and he said to them, Let us go over to the other side of the water: and they put out the boat.
23 A hlaikan uh vaengah Jesuh tah vik ip. Te vaengah hlipuei khohli loh tuili la ha pawk tih dalh a muelh coeng dongah khopo uh.
But while they were sailing he went to sleep: and a storm of wind came down on the sea, and the boat became full of water and they were in danger.
24 Te dongah Jesuh te a paan uh tih a haeng uh. Te phoeiah, “Boeipa, Boeipa, m'poci uh coeng he,” a ti nauh. Tedae a haeng vaengah khohli neh tui dongkah tuiphu te khaw a toel hatah khohli khaw paa tih suepduem la koep om.
Then they came to him and, awaking him out of his sleep, said, Master, Master, destruction is near. And he, when he was awake, gave orders to the wind and the rolling waves, and the storm came to an end, and all was calm.
25 Te phoeiah amih te, “Nangmih kah tangnah te ta?” a ti nah. Tedae a rhih uh tih a ngai a hmang uh dongah amamih te, “Unim he, khohli neh tui khaw a voek tih a ngai pah he,” a ti uh.
And he said to them, Where is your faith? And fear and wonder overcame them, and they said to one another, Who then is this, who gives orders even to the winds and the water and they do what he says?
26 Te phoeiah Galilee imdan ah aka om Gerasenes kho te a pha uh.
And they came to the country of the Gerasenes, which is opposite Galilee.
27 Lan so a pha vaengah khopuei lamkah rhaithae aka khueh hlang pakhat loh a doe. Kum te yet ah himbai bai voel pawh, im ah pawt tih phuel ah naeh.
And when he had come to the land, there came to him a certain man from the town who had evil spirits; and for a long time he had had no clothing on, and was not living in a house but in the place of the dead.
28 Jesuh te a hmuh vaengah pang tih a bakop thil. Te phoeiah ol ue la, “Kai taeng neh nang taengah balae aka om?, Khohni Pathen capa Jesuh aw. Kai nan phaep pawt ham ni nang kan hloep,” a ti nah.
And when he saw Jesus, he gave a loud cry and went down on the earth before him and in a loud voice said, What have I to do with you, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? Do not be cruel to me.
29 Te dongah hlang khui lamkah a coe hamla rhalawt mueihla te a toel. Te vaengah anih a paco te a tue khaw yet coeng. Thirhui neh a pael tih hloong nen khaw a khoh uh coeng. Tedae rhaithae loh khosoek la a vai vaengah tah hloong te khaw a dueng.
For he gave an order to the evil spirit to come out of the man. For frequently it would take a grip of him: and he was kept under control, and prisoned with chains; but parting the chains in two, he would be sent by the driving of the evil spirit into waste places.
30 Te phoeiah anih te Jesuh loh, “Na ming ulae? tila a dawt. Anih te rhaithae a yet loh a kun thil dongah, “caempuei caempa,” a ti nah.
And Jesus said to him, What is your name? And he said, Legion; for a number of spirits had gone into him.
31 Te phoeiah amih te tangrhom dung khuiah cungpung saeh tila olpaek pawt ham Jesuh te a hloep uh. (Abyssos g12)
And they made a request to him that he would not give them an order to go away into the deep. (Abyssos g12)
32 Te vaengah tlang ah aka luem ok hui te muep tapkhoeh om. Te dongah amih te ok khuila kun sak ham a bih uh tih a kun sak.
Now there was a great herd of pigs in that place, getting food on the mountain: and the evil spirits made a request to him that he would let them go into the pigs, and he let them.
33 Te daengah rhaithae rhoek tah hlang lamloh cet uh tih ok khuila kun uh. Tedae ok hui tah laengpoeng ah tuili khuila cu tih buek uh.
And the evil spirits came out of the man and went into the pigs: and the herd went rushing down a sharp slope into the water and came to destruction.
34 Aka thoeng hno te ok vuelh rhoek loh a hmuh uh vaengah rhaelrham uh tih khopuei neh lohma lam khaw puen uh.
And when the men who took care of them saw what had come about, they went quickly and gave news of it in the town and the country.
35 Te dongah aka om hno te sawt hamla cet uh tih Jesuh te a paan uh. Te vaengah a khui lamkah rhaithae rhoek loh a nong tak hlang khaw ana yol uh tih Jesuh kho kungah samthing la a ngol te a hmuh uh hatah a rhih uh.
And they went out to see what had taken place, and they came to Jesus and saw the man out of whom the evil spirits had gone, seated, clothed and with full use of his senses, at the feet of Jesus; and fear came on them.
36 Te dongah rhaithae aka kaem loh a khang te aka hmuh rhoek loh amih taengah patoeng puen uh.
And those who had seen it gave them an account of how the man who had the evil spirits was made well.
37 Tedae rhihnah loh mat a nan uh dongah Gerasenes pingpang kah rhaengpuei boeih loh Jesuh te amih taeng lamkah nong sak ham la a hloep uh. Jesuh khaw lawng khuila kun tih mael.
And all the people of the country of the Gerasenes made a request to him to go away from them; for they were in great fear: and he got into a boat and went back.
38 A khui lamkah rhaithae loh a nong tak hlang long khaw Jesuh neh amah taengah om hamla a bih.
But the man from whom the evil spirits had gone out had a great desire to be with him, but he sent him away, saying,
39 Tedae anih te a tueih tih, “Namah im la bal lamtah, Pathen loh nang ham a saii te thui pah,” a ti nah. Te dongah kho tom la cet tih Jesuh loh anih ham a saii te a hoe.
Go back to your house and let them have news of all the great things which God has done for you. And he went away, giving word through all the town of the great things which Jesus had done for him.
40 Jesuh aka lamso la boeih a om uh dongah a mael vaengah anih te hlangping loh a doe.
And when Jesus went back, the people were glad to see him, for they were all waiting for him.
41 Te vaengah Jairus aka ming nah hlang pakhat te pakcak ha pawk. Anih tah tunim kah boei la om dae, Jesuh kho taengah bakop tih a im ah pah sak ham a cael.
Then there came a man named Jairus, who was a ruler in the Synagogue: and he went down at the feet of Jesus, desiring him to come to his house;
42 A canu khueh duen, kum hlainit tluk te duek. Tedae a caeh vaegah Jesuh te hlangping loh a thing.
For he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was near to death. But while he was on his way, the people were pushing to be near him.
43 Te phoeiah kum hlainit ah thii buk aka khueh huta om. Anih loh a khosaknah te siboei taengah boeih a hnonah coeng dae coeng thai pawt tih hoeih pawh.
And a woman, who had had a flow of blood for twelve years, and had given all her money to medical men, and not one of them was able to make her well,
44 A hnuk lamloh a paan tih a himbai dongkah salaw te a taek pah. Te dongah a thii buk te dup a ngol pah.
Came after him and put her hand on the edge of his robe, and straight away the flowing of her blood was stopped.
45 Tedae Jesuh loh, “Ulae kai aka taek te,” a ti nah. Boeih basa uh tih Peter loh, “Boeipa, hlangping loh nang te ng'et tih n'nen te ta,” a ti nah.
And Jesus said, Who was touching me? And when they all said, It is not I, Peter and those who were with him said, Master, the people are pushing round you on every side.
46 Te vaengah Jesuh loh, “Khat khat loh kai n'taek, kai lamkah ka thaomnah a caeh te ka ming,” a ti nah.
But Jesus said, Someone was touching me, for I had the feeling that power had gone out from me.
47 A phah tloel te huta loh a hmuh vaengah a birhih doela a paan tih a taengah a bakuep pah. Anih a taek vaengah a paelnaehnah te khaw, metla a hoeih pahoi te khaw pilnam boeih taengah puen.
And when the woman saw that she was not able to keep it secret, she came, shaking with fear, and falling down before him she made clear before all the people the reason for her touching him, and how she was made well straight away.
48 Te dongah anih te, “Ka canu, na tangnah loh namah ng'khang coeng, ngaimong la cet laeh,” a ti nah.
And he said to her, Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace.
49 A thui pueng ah tamtaeng taeng lamkah hlang pakhat ha pawk tih, “Na canu duek coeng, saya te toehoeih boeh,” a ti nah.
While he was still talking, someone came from the house of the ruler of the Synagogue, saying, Your daughter is dead; do not go on troubling the Master.
50 Jesuh loh a yaak vaengah, “Rhih boeh, dawk tangnah lamtah daem bitni,” a ti nah.
But Jesus at these words said to him, Have no fear, only have faith, and she will be made well.
51 A pha vaengah Peter, Johan neh James, camoe kah manu a napa pawt atah pakhat khaw amah taengah im khuila kun sak pawh.
And when he came to the house he did not let any man go in with him, but only Peter and John and James, and the father of the girl and her mother.
52 Te vaengah boeih rhap uh tih camoe te a rhaengsae uh. Tedae Jesuh loh, “Rhap uh boeh, a duek moenih, aka ip ni he,” a ti nah.
And all the people were weeping and crying for her; but he said, Do not be sad, for she is not dead, but sleeping.
53 Tedae a duek te a ming uh dongah Jesuh te a nueih thiluh.
And they were laughing at him, being certain that she was dead.
54 Tedae Jesuh loh a kut a tuuk pah phoeiah a khue tih, “Camoe thoo laeh,” a ti nah.
But he, taking her hand, said to her, My child, get up.
55 Te dongah a mueihla ha mael tih pahoi thoo. Te phoeiah anih te a caak a paek ham a uen.
And her spirit came back to her and she got up straight away: and he gave orders that food was to be given to her.
56 Te vaengah a manu napa tah limlum rhoi. Tedae aka om hno te thui pawt ham amih te a uen.
And her father and mother were full of wonder, but he gave orders to them to say nothing about it to anyone.
