Matthai 9
1 Te phoeiah lawng khuila kun tih, a hlaikan daengah amah kho la pawk.
And he entered into a boat, and passed over, and came into 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 brought to him a man sick with the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said to the sick with the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins are forgiven thee.
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 man blasphemeth.
4 Jesuh loh amih kah poeknah te a hmuh tih, “Balae tih na thinko khui ah a thae na poek uh.
And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Why think ye 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, Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, 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 ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, ( then saith he to the sick with the palsy, ) Arise, take up thy bed, and go to thy house.
7 Te vaengah thoo tih a im la koe cet.
And he arose, and departed to his house.
8 Hlangping loh a hmuh vaengah a rhih uh tih, hlang taengah hebang saithainah aka pae Pathen te a thangpom uh.
But when the multitudes saw it, they marvelled, and glorified God, who had given 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 as Jesus passed on from there, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the tax office: and he saith to him, Follow me. And he arose, and 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, as Jesus sat eating in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with him 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 when the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, Why eateth your Master with 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.
But when Jesus heard that, he said to them, They that are well need not a physician, but they that are sick.
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 go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
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 came to him the disciples of John, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but thy disciples fast not?
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 children of the bridechamber mourn, as long as the bridegroom is with them? but the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken from them, and then they shall 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.
No man putteth a piece of new cloth to an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the tear is made worse.
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.
Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.
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 was speaking these things to them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.
19 Te dongah Jesuh tah thoo tih anih te a hnukbang rhoek neh a vai phai.
And Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did 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, who was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment:
21 Amah long tah, “Jesuh kah himbai mah ka taek koinih ka hoeih ni,” a ti dongah ni.
For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be healed.
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.
But Jesus turned himself about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee well. And the woman was healed from that hour.
23 Boei im la Jesuh a pawk vaengah phavi tum neh hlangping te a sarhingrhup la hmuh.
And when Jesus came into the ruler’s house, and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise,
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 said to them, Give place: for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed at him.
25 Tedae hlangping te a haek phoeiah kun tih a kut a tuuk pah vaengah hula te thoo.
But when the people were put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand, and the maid arose.
26 He olthang loh tekah kho boeih te a pha.
And the fame of this went abroad into all that 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 when Jesus departed from there, two blind men followed him, crying, and saying, Thou Son of David, have mercy on us.
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 when he had come into the house, the blind men came to him: and Jesus saith to them, Believe ye that I am able to do this? They said to him, Yea, 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 be it 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 sternly charged them, saying, See that no man know it.
31 Tedae cet rhoi tih Jesuh kawng te kho tom ah a doek rhoi.
But they, when they had departed, spread abroad his fame in all that country.
32 Amih rhoi a caeh neh rhaithae aka kaem hlang pakhat hnapang te a taengla tarha a khuen uh.
As they went out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed with a demon.
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 when the demon was cast out, the dumb spoke: and the multitudes marvelled, saying, 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, He casteth out demons through the prince of 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 went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease 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.
But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they were faint, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.
37 Te dongah a hnukbang rhoek te, “Cangah hamla yet ngawn dae bibikung rhoek tah yolca.
Then saith he to his disciples, The harvest truly is plentiful, but the labourers are few;
38 Te dongah cangah boeipa taengah na thangthui uh daengah ni a cangat la bibikung han tueih eh,” a ti nah.
Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.
