Matthai 9
1 Te phoeiah lawng khuila kun tih, a hlaikan daengah amah kho la pawk.
And having gone into the boat, He passed over, and came to His own city,
2 Te vaengah khawn tih thingkong dongah aka yalh te a taengla tarha a khuen pauh. Amih kah tangnah te Jesuh loh a hmuh coeng dongah aka khawn te, “Ngaimong sak, ka ca, tholhnah loh nang n'hlah coeng,” a ti nah.
and behold, they were bringing to Him a paralytic, laid on a bed, and Jesus having seen their faith, said to the paralytic, “Take courage, child, your sins have been forgiven.”
3 Te vaengah cadaek rhoek khuikah hlangvang long tah amamih khuiah, “Anih loh a soehsal coeng,” tarha a ti uh.
And behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, “This One speaks evil.”
4 Jesuh loh amih kah poeknah te a hmuh tih, “Balae tih na thinko khui ah a thae na poek uh.
And Jesus, having known their thoughts, said, “Why think evil in your hearts?
5 “Na tholh loh n'hlah coeng, ' ti ham neh, ' thoo lamtah cet,’ ti ham he, melae yoeikoek la aka om?
For which is easier? To say, Your sins are forgiven; or to say, Rise and walk?
6 Te daengah ni diklai hmankah tholh hlah ham he hlang capa loh saithainah a khueh te na ming uh eh,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah aka khawn te, “Thoo, na phak te khuen lamtah na im la cet,” a ti nah.
But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on the earth to forgive sins—(then He says to the paralytic)—Having risen, take up your bed, and go to your house.”
7 Te vaengah thoo tih a im la koe cet.
And he, having risen, went to his house,
8 Hlangping loh a hmuh vaengah a rhih uh tih, hlang taengah hebang saithainah aka pae Pathen te a thangpom uh.
and the multitudes having seen, wondered, and glorified God, who gave such power to men.
9 Jesuh te lamkah a khum vaengah, Matthai la a khue hlang pakhat tah mangmu doenah ah a ngol te a hmuh tih, “Kai m'vai lah,” a ti nah. Te dongah thoo tih Jesuh taengah bang.
And Jesus passing on from there saw a man sitting at the tax office named Matthew, and says to him, “Follow Me,” and he, having risen, followed Him.
10 Im khuiah a om vaengah caboei te a vael. Te vaengah mangmucoi rhoek neh hlangtholh rhoek muep tarha ha pawk uh tih Jesuh neh a hnukbang rhoek taengah a vael uh.
And it came to pass, He reclining in the house, that behold, many tax collectors and sinners having come, were dining with Jesus and His disciples,
11 Pharisee rhoek loh a hmuh uh vaengah a hnukbang rhoek taengah, “Balae tih nangmih kah saya tah mangmucoi rhoek neh hlangtholh rhoek taengah a caak,” a ti nah.
and the Pharisees having seen, said to His disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with the tax collectors and sinners?”
12 Tedae a yaak vaengah, “Sading rhoek loh siboei a ngoe moenih, tedae tloh aka khueh rhoek long tah a ngoe.
And Jesus having heard, said to them, “They who are whole have no need of a physician, but they who are ill;
13 Cet uh lamtah metla a om khaw cang uh saw. Ka ngaih he tah rhennah ni hmueih te moenih. Aka dueng rhoek khue ham pawt tih aka tholh rhoek ham ni ka pawk,” a ti nah.
but having gone, learn what [this] is: Kindness I will, and not sacrifice; for I did not come to call righteous men, but sinners.”
14 Te phoeiah Johan kah hnukbang loh a a paan uh tih, “Balae tih kaimih neh Pharisee rhoek long tah vawpvawp ka yaeh uh. Tedae na hnukbang rhoek loh a yaeh uh moenih,” a ti nah.
Then the disciples of John come to Him, saying, “Why do we and the Pharisees fast much, and Your disciples do not fast?”
15 Jesuh loh amih te, “Pacaboeina loh yulueihmuen te a nguek thil thai moenih. Amih a om khuiah tah yulokung loh a om puei ta. Tedae yulokung te amih taeng lamkah loh a khue tue ha pawk vaengah a yaeh uh van bitni.
And Jesus said to them, “Can the sons of the bride-chamber mourn, so long as the bridegroom is with them? But days will come when the bridegroom may be taken from them, and then they will fast.
16 Hni pen a cuemsok te himbai rhuem soah a bo moenih. A bawtnah ah te long te himbai ni a dueng tih a pawnnah te a thae la a om.
And no one puts a patch of undressed cloth on an old garment, for its filling up takes from the garment, and a worse split is made.
17 Misurtui a noe te tuitang rhuem khuiah a than moenih. Te pawt koinih tuitang te paeng tih misurtui khaw cae. Te vaengah tuitang khaw poci. Tedae misurtui noe te tuitang a thai dongah a than uh atah bok sueng,” a ti nah.
Nor do they put new wine into old skins, and if not—the skins burst, and the wine runs out, and the skins are destroyed, but they put new wine into new skins, and both are preserved together.”
18 He rhoek he amih ham a thui vaengah boei pakhat te pakcak cet tih anih te a bawk. Te phoeiah, “Ka canu he paekca ah duek dae na lo tih na kut na tloeng thil koinih hing ni,” a ti nah.
While He is speaking these things to them, behold, a ruler having come, was prostrating to Him, saying that “My daughter just now died, but having come, lay Your hand on her, and she will live.”
19 Te dongah Jesuh tah thoo tih anih te a hnukbang rhoek neh a vai phai.
And Jesus having risen, followed him, also His disciples,
20 Te vaengah kum hlainit khuiah aka thii nu loh a hnuk ah a paan tih a himbai dongkah salaw te a taek pah.
and behold, a woman having a flow of blood [for] twelve years, having come to Him behind, touched the fringe of His garments,
21 Amah long tah, “Jesuh kah himbai mah ka taek koinih ka hoeih ni,” a ti dongah ni.
for she said within herself, “If only I may touch His garment, I will be saved.”
22 Jesuh te mael tih huta te a hmuh vaengah, “Ka canu na ngaimong sak, na tangnah loh nang n'khang coeng,” a ti nah. Te vaeng tue lamloh huta tah daem.
And Jesus having turned, and having seen her, said, “Take courage, daughter, your faith has saved you,” and the woman was saved from that hour.
23 Boei im la Jesuh a pawk vaengah phavi tum neh hlangping te a sarhingrhup la hmuh.
And Jesus having come into the house of the ruler, and having seen the pipers and the multitude making tumult,
24 Te dongah, “Khoe uh lah, hula he a duek moenih, aka ip ni,” a ti nah. Te vaengah Jesuh te a nueih thiluh.
He says to them, “Withdraw, for the girl did not die, but sleeps,” and they were deriding Him;
25 Tedae hlangping te a haek phoeiah kun tih a kut a tuuk pah vaengah hula te thoo.
but when the multitude was put forth, having gone in, He took hold of her hand, and the girl arose,
26 He olthang loh tekah kho boeih te a pha.
and the fame of this went forth to all the land.
27 Te lamloh Jesuh a khum vaengah mikdael panit loh a vai rhoi. Te vaengah pang rhoi tih, “David Capa kaimih rhoi n'rhen lah,” a ti rhoi.
And Jesus passing on from there, two blind men followed Him, calling and saying, “Deal kindly with us, Son of David!”
28 Im la a pawk vaengah Jesuh te mikdael rhoi loh a paan rhoi. Te vaengah Jesuh loh amih rhoi te, “He he ka saii thai tila na tangnah rhoi a?” a ti nah hatah, “Ue, Boeipa,” a ti rhoi.
And He having come into the house, the blind men came to Him, and Jesus says to them, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?” They say to Him, “Yes, Lord.”
29 Te phoeiah amih rhoi kah mik te a taek pah tih, “Nangmih rhoi kah tangnah bangla nangmih taengah om saeh,” a ti nah.
Then He touched their eyes, saying, “According to your faith let it be to you,”
30 Te vaengah a mik a tueng pah. Tedae Jesuh tah thanueih tih amih rhoi te, “Ngaithuen, hlang loh ming boel saeh,” a ti nah.
and their eyes were opened, and Jesus strictly charged them, saying, “See, let no one know”;
31 Tedae cet rhoi tih Jesuh kawng te kho tom ah a doek rhoi.
but they, having gone forth, spread His fame in all that land.
32 Amih rhoi a caeh neh rhaithae aka kaem hlang pakhat hnapang te a taengla tarha a khuen uh.
And as they are coming forth, behold, they brought to Him a man mute, a demoniac,
33 Rhaithae te haek pah tih olmueh te koep cal. Te dongah hlangping tah a ngaihmang uh tih, “Israel khuiah om noek tangloeng pawh,” a ti uh.
and the demon having been cast out, the mute spoke, and the multitude wondered, saying that “It was never so seen in Israel,”
34 Tedae Pharisee rhoek loh, “Rhaithae boei rhang nen ni rhaithae a haek,” a ti uh.
but the Pharisees said, “By the ruler of the demons He casts out the demons.”
35 Te phoeiah Jesuh tah khopuei boeih neh vangca tom la cet tih amih kah tunim ah a thuituen. Ram kah olthangthen te khaw a hoe tih tlohtat boeih neh tlohnat boeih te a hoeih sak.
And Jesus was going up and down all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues, and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people.
36 A hmuh vaengah amih hlangping ham te a thinphat. Tawnba la a om uh lalah tudawn aka om pawh tu bangla a voeih uh.
And having seen the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, that they were faint and cast aside, as sheep not having a shepherd;
37 Te dongah a hnukbang rhoek te, “Cangah hamla yet ngawn dae bibikung rhoek tah yolca.
then He says to His disciples, “The harvest indeed [is] abundant, but the workmen few;
38 Te dongah cangah boeipa taengah na thangthui uh daengah ni a cangat la bibikung han tueih eh,” a ti nah.
therefore implore the Lord of the harvest that He may put forth workmen to His harvest.”
