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.
It happened shortly afterwards that he began to go from town to town and village to village, preaching and telling the good news of the kingdom of God.
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,
The twelve were with him, and certain women whom he had delivered from evil spirits and various diseases. Mary of Magdala, out of whom seven demons have been driven,
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 steward, and Susanna, and many other women, who used to minister to him out of their substance.
4 Khopuei takuem kah hlangping te muep capit uh tih a taengla ha pawk uh.
As a great crowd was gathering, and men of town after town kept restoring to him, he spoke a parable to them.
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 sower went out to sow his seed, and as he sowed some fell by the wayside, and was trodden under foot, and the wild birds ate it up.
6 A tloe rhoek tah lungpang soah tla dae, laiyuem a om pawt dongah a poe neh pahoi koh.
"Some other seed dropped on the rock, as soon as it grew it withered away, because it had no moisture.
7 A tloe rhoek tah hling puem ah tla tih, a rhoeng vaengah hling loh a thing.
"Another part fell among the thorns; and the thorns grew with it and choked it.
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.
"But some fell on good soil, and grew up, and brought forth fruit, a hundredfold." When he said this, he called out, "Whoever has ears to hear with, let him listen."
9 Te dongah nuettahnah loh metla a om te a hnukbang rhoek loh amah a dawt uh.
Then his disciples began to interrupt him, saying, "What does this parable mean?"
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.
He answered. "To you it is given to understand the mysteries of the kingdom of God; But all others are taught in parables so that seeing they shall not see, and hearing they shall not hear.
11 Nuettahnah tah he tlam ni a om. Cangtii tah Pathen kah olka ni.
"This is the meaning of the parable. 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 wayside are people who hear, but then comes the devil and carries off the word from their heart, so that they may not believe and not be saved.
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.
"Those on the rock are people who, upon hearing, receive the word with joy; but they have no root. For a time indeed they all believe, but in time of temptation they fall away.
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 that which fell upon thorns is those who have heard, but as they go on their way of word is choked with the cares and riches and pleasures of life; so they bring no fruit of perfection.
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 that in the good soil is those who have listened to the message and, in an honest and good heart, hold fast, and bring forth fruit with patience.
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.
"When he lights a lamp no one covers it with a vase or hides it under a bed; he puts it on a lamp-stand so whoever may behold 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 is nothing hidden that shall not be disclosed; there is nothing secret which shall not be made known and come to the 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.
"Take heed, then, how you listen. for he who has, to him shall it be given, but from him who has not, shall be taken away even what he has."
19 Jesuh te a manu neh a mana rhoek loh a paan. Tedae hlangping dongah anih te hum uh thai pawh.
There came to him his mother and his brothers, and they could not reach him because of the crowd.
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.
But some one told him, "Your mother and brothers are standing 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.
"My mother and brothers," he answered, "are those who listen to the word of God and obey 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 happened that one of these days he got into a boat, And him his disciples, and he said to them, "Let us cross to the other side of the lake."
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.
So they set sail. While they were sailing he fell asleep. And there fell on the lake a squall of wind, so that the boat began to fill, and they to be in deadly peril.
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 woke him, saying, "Master, Master, we are lost!" Then he awoke, and rebuked the winds and the raging of the sea. They ceased, and there was a 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.
"Where is your faith?" he asked them, In their terror they were filled with amazement, and said to one another, "Who is this who commands even the winds and the sea, and they obey him?"
26 Te phoeiah Galilee imdan ah aka om Gerasenes kho te a pha uh.
Then they put in at the country of Gadarenes, which is across from 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.
When he landed here he was met by a certain townsman who was possessed by demons. For a long time he had worn no clothes and nor lived in any house, but in tombs.
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.
When he saw Jesus he cried out, and fell down before him, and in a loud voice exclaimed. "What have we to do with you, Jesus, you son of God Most High? I implore you to torment me not!"
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 Jesus was already commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For many times it had seized him and held him, and they again and again kept him under guard, and put him in chains and fetters. But he would break his bonds asunder, as he was driven by the demon in to the desert.
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.
So Jesus asked him, "What is your name?" And he answered, "Legion" (for many demons had entered into him).
31 Te phoeiah amih te tangrhom dung khuiah cungpung saeh tila olpaek pawt ham Jesuh te a hloep uh. (Abyssos g12)
So they besought Jesus not to command them to go away into the abyss. (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 swine feeding on the hillside, and the demons begged him to give them leave to enter them. He gave them leave.
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.
The demons came out of the man, and entered into the swine; the herd rushed violently down over the cliff into the lake.
34 Aka thoeng hno te ok vuelh rhoek loh a hmuh uh vaengah rhaelrham uh tih khopuei neh lohma lam khaw puen uh.
And those who saw what had happened fled and reported it in the town and the villages.
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.
Then the people came out to see what had happened, and came to Jesus, and found the man out of whom the demons had gone sitting clothed and in his right mind, at the feet of Jesus. And they were terrified.
36 Te dongah rhaithae aka kaem loh a khang te aka hmuh rhoek loh amih taengah patoeng puen uh.
Then those who had seen it told them how the demon-possessed man had been saved.
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 the whole populace of Gadarenes and the surrounding territory besought Jesus to go away from them; for they were terror-stricken. So he entered a boat and returned.
38 A khui lamkah rhaithae loh a nong tak hlang long khaw Jesuh neh amah taengah om hamla a bih.
But the man out of whom the demons had gone kept begging him that he might be with him. But Jesus 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.
"Return to your home, and tell them all that God has done for you." So he went away and throughout the whole city he published how much 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 as Jesus returned the crowd welcomed 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.
for they were all waiting for him. Just then there came a man named Jarius, and he was ruler in the synagogue. He fell down at Jesus’ feet and begged him to come into 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 only one daughter, about twelve years of age, and she lay dying. But as he went the crowds continued to press in on 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 for twelve years had had a hemorrhage, and had spent on doctors all that she had, but none had cured her,
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 close behind him, and touched the hem of his garment; and instantly the hemorrhage ceased.
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.
"Who is that touched me?" said Jesus and when everybody denied it, Peter said, "Master, the crowds are hemming you in and pressing upon you."
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. "Some one did touch me; for I perceived that the power was proceeding out of 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.
Then the woman, who saw that she had not escaped notice, came trembling, and falling down before him, stated before the people for what reason she had touched him, and how she had been instantly healed.
48 Te dongah anih te, “Ka canu, na tangnah loh namah ng'khang coeng, ngaimong la cet laeh,” a ti nah.
"Daughter," he said "your faith has made you well, go on into 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.
As he was speaking some one came from the house of the synagogue, saying. "Your daughter is dead! Do not trouble the Master."
50 Jesuh loh a yaak vaengah, “Rhih boeh, dawk tangnah lamtah daem bitni,” a ti nah.
But Jesus heard and answered. "Have no fear. Only believe, and she shall be restored."
51 A pha vaengah Peter, Johan neh James, camoe kah manu a napa pawt atah pakhat khaw amah taengah im khuila kun sak pawh.
So he came to the house, and would not permit anyone to go in with him except Peter and Johnand James, and the father and Mother of the little girl.
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.
The people were weeping and bewailing her, but he said. "Stop your wailing; for she is not dead, but asleep."
53 Tedae a duek te a ming uh dongah Jesuh te a nueih thiluh.
They began to laugh him to scorn, because they knew well 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 took her by the hand and called to her, "Little daughter, rise!"
55 Te dongah a mueihla ha mael tih pahoi thoo. Te phoeiah anih te a caak a paek ham a uen.
And her spirit returned and instantly she stood up.
56 Te vaengah a manu napa tah limlum rhoi. Tedae aka om hno te thui pawt ham amih te a uen.
He bade them to get her some food. Her parents were amazed; but he forbade them to tell any one what had been done.
