Marku 8
1 Te khohnin ah hlangping te hut koep om tih caak koi ba khaw khueh uh pawh.
In those days again, when there was a great mass of people and they had no food, he made his disciples come to him and said to them,
2 Hnukbang rhoek te a khue tih, “Kai taengah hnin thum rhaeh uh coeng tih caak bakhaw a khueh uh voel pawt dongah he hlangping ham ka thinphat.
I have pity for these people because they have been with me now three days, and have no food;
3 Te dongah a im ah buhmueh rhathih la amih ka tueih koinih longpueng ah tawnba uh ni. Amih khuikah hlangvang tah khohla lamkah ha pawk uh,” a ti nah.
If I send them away to their houses with no food, they will be overcome by weariness on the way; and some of them have come from far.
4 A hnukbang rhoek long khaw, “He rhoek he kohong ah me lamkah buh nim hlang loh a cah thai eh he?” a ti uh.
And his disciples said in answer, How will it be possible to get enough bread for these men here in a waste place?
5 Te dongah amih te, “Vaidam meyet na khueh uh?,” a ti nah hatah, “Parhih,” a ti uh.
And he put the question, How much bread have you? And they said, Seven cakes.
6 Te dongah hlangping te diklai ah ngol ham a uen. Te phoeiah vaidam parhih te a loh tih a uem tih a aeh. Te daengah hlangping taengah tael hamla a hnukbang rhoek te a paek tih a tael uh.
And he made the people be seated on the earth: and he took the seven cakes and, having given praise, he gave the broken bread to his disciples to put before them; and they put it before the people.
7 Te phoeiah ngadik a yool a khueh uh te khaw a uem tih amih te, “He khaw tael uh,” a ti nah.
And they had some small fishes; and blessing them he had them put before the people in the same way.
8 A caak uh tih a hah uh phoeiah a nueipil aka coih te voh rhih la a phueih uh.
And they took the food, and had enough; and they took up seven baskets full of the broken bits.
9 Te vaengah thawngli tluk om uh.
And there were about four thousand people: and he sent them away.
10 Amih a hlah phoeiah tah lawng khuila tlek kun tih a hnukbang rhoek neh Dalmanutha paengpang la pawk.
And he got into the boat with his disciples straight away, and came into the country of Dalmanutha.
11 Te vaengah Pharisee rhoek te cet uh tih Jesuh te koe a oelh uh. Vaan lamkah miknoek te anih taengah a toem uh tih a noemcai uh.
And the Pharisees came out and put questions to him, requesting from him a sign from heaven, testing him.
12 Tedae a lungbuei ah huei tih, “Balae hekah cadil loh miknoek a toem. Nangmih taengah rhep ka thui, Hekah cadil he miknoek tueng ham moenih,” a ti.
And he was very sad in spirit, and said, Why is this generation looking for a sign? truly, I say to you, No sign will be given to this generation.
13 Te dongah amih te a toeng phoeiah koep kun tih rhalvangan la kat.
And he went away from them, and again got into the boat and went across to the other side.
14 Te vaengah buh khuen ham a hmaai uh dongah lawng khuikah amih taengah vaidam pakhat bueng pawt atah atloe khueh uh pawh.
And they had taken no thought to get bread; and they had only one cake of bread with them in the boat.
15 Te vaengah amih te ol a paek tih, “Ngaithuen uh, Pharisee rhoek kah tolrhu neh Herod kah tolrhu te hmat uh,” a ti nah.
And he said to them, Take care to be on the watch against the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod.
16 Te vaengah vaidam a khueh uh pawt te amamih khuiah dawtlet uh thae.
And they said to one another, We have no bread.
17 Tedae a ming dongah amih te, “Balae tih vaidam na khueh uh pawt te na thuiuh. Na yakming uh pawt tih, na hmuhming uh thlan a? Na thinko te mangkhak la vawk khueh uh ne.
And Jesus, hearing it, said to them, Why are you reasoning among yourselves because you have no bread? do you still not see, and is it still not clear to you? are your hearts so hard?
18 Mik aka khueh rhoek loh na hmuh uh voel pawt tih hna aka khueh rhoek loh na yaak uh pawt dongah na poek uh moenih.
Having eyes, do you not see? and having ears, have you no hearing? and have you no memory?
19 Thawngnga ham vaidam panga ka aeh vaengah a nueipil na phueih uh te voh meyet a bae?” a ti nah hatah Jesuh taengah, “Hlainit,” a ti nauh.
When I made a division of the five cakes of bread among the five thousand, what number of baskets full of broken bits did you take up? They said to him, Twelve.
20 “Thawngli ham parhih vaengah a nueipil na phueih uh te voh meyet a bae?” a ti nah hatah Jesuh taengah, “Parhih,” a ti nauh.
And when the seven among the four thousand, what number of baskets full of broken bits did you take up? And they said to him, Seven.
21 Te phoeiah amih te, “Na hmuhming uh hlan a?,” a ti nah.
And he said to them, Is it still not clear to you?
22 Bethsaida la a caeh uh vaengah mikdael te Jesuh taengla a khuen uh tih anih te taek sak ham a bih uh.
And they came to Beth-saida. And they took a blind man to him, requesting him to put his hands on him.
23 Te dongah mikdael kah kut te a tuuk tih kho voella a khuen tih a mik ah a timthoeih. A kut te a tloeng thil phoeiah, “Khat khat khaw na hmuh maia?” tila a dawt.
And he took the blind man by the hand, and went with him out of the town; and when he had put water from his mouth on his eyes, and put his hands on him, he said, Do you see anything?
24 Te dongah oeloe tih, “Hlang rhoek te ka sawt dae thingkung aka cet bangla ka hmuh,” a ti nah.
And looking up, he said, I see men; I see them like trees, walking.
25 Tedae a mik te a kut koep a tloeng pah thil daengah a cil pah tih a hoeih pah tih phaeng boeih a hmuh.
Then again he put his hands on his eyes; and looking hard, he was able to see, and saw all things clearly.
26 Tedae anih a im la a tueih vaengah tah, “Vangca la kun boeh,” a ti nah.
And he sent him away to his house, saying, Do not even go into the town.
27 Jesuh neh a hnukbang rhoek tah Kaisarea Philip kah kho la a caeh uh vaengah longpueng ah a hnukbang rhoek te a dawt tih, “Kai he hlang loh ulae a ti uh,” a ti nah.
And Jesus went out, with his disciples, into the little towns round Caesarea Philippi; and on the way he put a question to his disciples, saying, Who do men say that I am?
28 Te dongah amah te, “Pakhat loh tuinuem Johan, pakhat loh Elijah, tedae pakhat loh tonghma rhoek khuikah pakhat khat a ti uh,” a ti nauh.
And they made answer, John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; but others, One of the prophets.
29 Jesuh loh amih te, “Nangmih ta kai he ulae na ti uh?” tila a dawt. Peter loh a doo tih, “Nang tah Khrih ni,” a ti nah.
And he said to them, But who do you say I am? Peter said in answer, You are the Christ.
30 Te vaengah amah kawng te thui pawt ham amih te a uen.
And he put them under orders not to say this of him to anyone.
31 Te phoeiah amih taengah hlang capa te muep a patang ham neh patong rhoek loh a hnawt ham khaw, khosoihham rhoek neh cadaek rhoek loh a ngawn phoeikah hnin thum ah a thoh ham khaw a kuek te koe a thuituen.
And teaching them, he said that the Son of man would have to undergo much, and be hated by those in authority, and the chief priests, and the scribes, and be put to death, and after three days come back from the dead.
32 Te vaengah ol te sayalh la a thui dongah Peter loh Jesuh te a khue tih koe a toel.
And he said this openly. And Peter took him, and was protesting.
33 Tedae Jesuh loh mael tih a hnukbang rhoek te a sawt doeah Peter te a tluung tih, “Satan, Pathen te na poek pawt tih hlang te na poek dongah ka hnuk la nong,” a ti nah.
But he, turning about, and seeing his disciples, said sharply to Peter, Get out of my way, Satan: for your mind is not on the things of God, but on the things of men.
34 Te phoeiah a hnukbang rhoek neh hlangping te a khue tih, “Khat khat loh kai hnukah vai ham a ngaih atah amah a huek uh phoeiah a thinglam te kawt saeh lamtah kai m'vai saeh.
And turning to the mass of people with his disciples, he said to them, If any man has the desire to come after me, let him give up all other desires, and take up his cross and come after me.
35 Amah khaw a hinglu te khang ham aka ngaih tah a hlong ni. Tedae amah khaw kai neh olthangthen ham a hinglu aka hlong tah daem ni.
Whoever has a desire to keep his life, will have it taken from him; and whoever gives up his life because of me and the good news, will keep it.
36 Hlang pakhat te Diklai pum a dang dae a hinglu te a hlong atah balae a hoeikhang?
What profit has a man if he gets all the world with the loss of his life?
37 Hlang loh a hinglu ham balae tlansum la a phai eh?
And what would a man give in exchange for his life?
38 He suentae lakliah kamah neh ka ol aka yah puei te tah samphaih neh hlangtholh la om coeng. Hlang capa loh a napa kah thangpomnah dongah hlangcim rhoek kah puencawn rhoek neh ha pawk vaengah anih te a yah puei van ni,” a ti nah.
Whoever has a feeling of shame because of me and my words in this false and evil generation, the Son of man will have a feeling of shame because of him, when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.
