Luke 13
1 Cawh, ce nyn awh thlang vang law unawh, cekkhqi ing Galili qam thlang, Pilat ing thi, ami Khawsa bawknaak awh khqin himnaak awh a pa sak khqi awithang ce Jesu theen uhy.
Now there were some present at the same time who told him about the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.
2 Jesu ing, “Cawhkaw Kalili thlangkhqi ce ak chang Kalili thlang khqi anglakawh ami thawlh bet dawngawh ni cemyihna ami zawk hy, tinawh namik poek nawh nu?
And he answered and said to them, "Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered these things?
3 Ka nik kqawn peek khqi, cekkhqi ce am thawlh bet uhy! Cehlai nangmih awm am naming zut awhtaw, plawci lawt kawm uk ti.
I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way.
4 Am awhtaw, Siloam ip sang ang tluk awh thlang hlaihkqet a kyih qen ce, Jerusalem awhkaw thlang khqing lak awh ami thawlh bet dawngawh vani hy voei tinawh namik poek nawh nu?
Or those eighteen, on whom the tower in Siloam fell, and killed them; do you think that they were worse offenders than all the others who dwell in Jerusalem?
5 Ka nik kqawn peek khqi, cekkhqi ce am thawlh bet uhy! Cehlai nangmih awm am naming zut awhtaw plawci lawt kawm uk ti,” tinak khqi hy.
I tell you, no, but, unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way."
6 Cekcoengawh vawhkaw nyhtahnaak awi ve kqawn pehy: “Thlang pynoet ing a misur dum khuiawh thai thing ce ling hy. Hypoet awhtaw thai ak thaih ce bit aham cet moe seinu, ak thaih pynoet ca awm am hu hy.
He spoke this parable. "A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it, and found none.
7 Cedawngawh misur dum ak qehkung a venawh cet nawh, ‘kup thum khuiawh thai qah bih aham law hawh hlai nyng ak thaih pynoet awm am hu nyng. Hlu mai hlah! Dek ak kang qung,’ tina hy.
He said to the vine dresser, 'Look, these three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree, and found none. Cut it down. Why does it waste the soil?'
8 Misur dum ak qehkung ing, “Bawipa, kum oet taw ta mai cang, a kengsamkhqi cawh pe nyng seitaw, dek ak leek ing vyih cang vang nyng.
He answered, 'Lord, leave it alone this year also, until I dig around it, and fertilize it.
9 Cawhkawng a kum voel awh a qah awhtaw nep bit kaw! Cehlai ama qah bai vik awhtaw hlu dam bit kawp ti,’ tina hy,” tinak khqi hy.
And if it bears fruit next time, [fine]; but if not, you can cut it down.'"
10 Sabbath nyn hypoet awh Jesu ing sinakawk pynoet ak khuiawh thlang cawngpyi hy,
He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath day.
11 cawh kum hlaihkhqet ak khawn nu pynoet ce cawh awm hy. Am ting khun qapsat nawh am dyng na am dyi thai hy.
And look, a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and she was bent over, and could in no way straighten herself up.
12 Jesu ing cawhkaw nu ce a huh awh, hai na khy nawh, “Nang nu, thawlhnaak awhkawng loet hawh hyk ti,” tina hy.
When Jesus saw her, he called her, and said to her, "Woman, you are freed from your infirmity."
13 Ak khan awh a kut tloeng pehy, cawh cawhkaw nu ce am dyng na dyi pahoei nawh Khawsa ce kyihcah hy.
He laid his hands on her, and immediately she stood up straight, and glorified God.
14 Sabbath nyn awh Jesu ing thlak tlo a qoei sak dawngawh, sinakawk ukkung ce kawso doena thlang kqeng a venawh, “Bibinaak aham khaw kquk nyn awm hy. Cawh law unawh taw nami tlawhnaakkhqi ce qoei sak uh, Sabbath nyn awhtaw koeh qoei sak uh,” tina hy.
The ruler of the synagogue, being indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, said to the crowd, "There are six days when work should be done Therefore come on those days and be healed, and not on the Sabbath day."
15 Bawipa ing cawhkaw sinakawk ukkung a venawh, “Nangmih thlak thaikhqi! Nangmih ing Sabbath nyn awh nami vaitaw mai aw, am awhtaw meqang mai aw a qui hlam pe unawh tui am nami awk sak nawh nu?
Therefore the Lord answered him, "You hypocrites. Does not each one of you free his ox or his donkey from the stall on the Sabbath, and lead him away to water?
16 Cawhtaw vawhkaw nu, Abraham a canu pynoet na ak awm, qaai ing khaw kum hqa hlaihkhqet khuiawh a pin ce Sabbath nyn awh amni hlam pe hly unawh nu? tinak khqi hy.
Ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan had bound, look, eighteen years, be freed from this bondage on the Sabbath day?"
17 Ve ak awi ak kqawn awh, a qaalkhqi boeih taw chak uhy, cehlai anih a ik-oeih sainaak awh ce thlangkhqi taw zeel uhy.
As he said these things, all his adversaries were disappointed, and all the crowd rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.
18 Jesu ing vemyihna doet hy, “Khawsa qam ve ikaw ing nu a ning myih hy voei? Ikawng nu ka nyhtah lah voei?
Then he said, "What is the Kingdom of God like? And to what can I compare it?
19 Khawsa qam taw thlang ing antlam cii lo nawh dum khuiawh ak theh ing myih hy. Cawhkaw antlam cii ce cawt nawh a thing na dyi law hy, khan nakaw phakhqi law unawh a pang awh ce ngawi uhy,” tinak khqi hy.
It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and put in his own garden. It grew, and became a tree, and the birds of the sky lodged in its branches."
20 Cekcoengawh vemyihna doet tlaih bai hy, “Ikawng nu Khawsa qam ve ka nyhtah lah voei?
And again he said, "To what can I compare the Kingdom of God?
21 Khawsa qam taw nu ing vaidam dawn khuih thum ak khuiawh hen a zamnaak boeih aham a phul ing myih hy,” tinak khqi hy.
It is like yeast, which a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, until it was all leavened."
22 Cekcoengawh Jesu ing Jerusalem na a ceh awh khawk bau ingkaw vangcakhqi awh ce thlang cawngpyi noe noe hy.
He went on his way through cities and villages, teaching, and traveling on to Jerusalem.
23 Thlang pynoet ing “Bawipa, thlang a khoehca doeng ing nu thawngnaak a huh kaw?” tinawh doet hy.
One said to him, "Lord, are they few who are saved?" He said to them,
24 Cekkhqi venawh, “Chawmkeng ak ceek khuiawh kun ngah ngah lah uh, kawtih thlang khawzah ing kun aham tha lo hly hlai uhy am kun thai kawm uh.
"Strive to enter in by the narrow door, for many, I tell you, will seek to enter in, and will not be able.
25 Imkung ing tho nawh chawh ce a khaih coengawh taw, a leng na dyi kawm utik saw chawh ce khoek kawm uk ti, ‘Bawipa chawh awng law lah,’ tina kawm uk ti. “Cehlai anih ing, ‘Amni sim khqi nyng, hana kawng nu nami law hy,’ ni tinak khqi kaw.
When once the master of the house has risen up, and has shut the door, and you begin to stand outside, and to knock at the door, saying, 'Lord, open to us.' then he will answer and tell you, 'I do not know you or where you come from.'
26 Cawh nangmih ing, “Nang ing buh a an ni aw ni ai haih saw kaw, lam awh awm ni cawngpyi tik saw kaw,” tina kawm uk ti.
Then you will begin to say, 'We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.'
27 Cehlai anih ing, ‘Amni sim khqi nyng, hana kawng nu nami law hy. Nangmih thawlhnaak ak saikhqi, ak chang na cet uh!’ ni tinak khqi kaw.
But he will reply, 'I do not know where you come from. Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity.'
28 Abraham, Isaak, Jakob ingkaw tawnghakhqi boeih Khawsa qam khuiawh ami awm ce nami huh awh, nangmih taw a leng na kqangnaak ingkaw hatahnaak a hun awh awm kawm uk ti.
There will be weeping and grinding of teeth, when you see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets, in the Kingdom of God, and yourselves being thrown outside.
29 Khaw law khawtlak, a sip a hawt benna kawng thlangkhqi law kawm usaw, Khawsa qam khuiawh buh veelnaak kung awh ngawi kawm uh.
They will come from the east, west, north, and south, and will sit down in the Kingdom of God.
30 Hu ak khyngkhqi ce ma kawm usaw, ak makhqi ce hu khyng lat kawm uh,” tinak khqi hy.
And look, there are some who are last who will be first, and there are some who are first who will be last."
31 Cawh Farasi thlang a vangkhqi ce Jesu a venna law unawh a venawh, “Ve a hun ve cehta nawh ak chang na cet hlah. Herod ing nang him aham ngaih hy,” tina uhy.
In that same hour some Pharisees came, saying to him, "Get out of here, and go away, for Herod wants to kill you."
32 Jesu ing, “Cet unawh taw ak thai ngentang ce kqawn pe uh, “Tuhngawi awh awm khawngawi awh awm qaaikhqi hqek kawng nyng saw thlak tlokhqi qoei sak kawng, am thum nyn awh kang cainaak ce coeng kawg nyng’ tihy tina uh.
And he said to them, "Go and tell that fox, 'Look, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I complete my mission.
33 Kawmih awh awm, tuhngawi, khawngawi ingkaw tiktuh dy ka ceh qoe qoe aham awm hy, tawngha ikawmyih awm Jerusalem khawceng awh am thi thai hy!
Nevertheless I must go on my way today and tomorrow and the next day, for it cannot be that a prophet perish outside of Jerusalem.'
34 Aw Jerusalem, Jerusalem, tawnghakhqi ak himkung ingkaw na venawh a tyih lawkhqi lung ing ak khawngkung, ai nu ing a cakhqi ang hlak khui awh ang koep sih amyihna, na cakhqi izah nu hqui sawi aham, ka ngaih ce, nang ingtaw am ngaih hyk ti!
"Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that kills the prophets, and stones those who are sent to her. How often I wanted to gather your children together, like a hen gathers her own brood under her wings, and you refused.
35 Toek lah, na im ve a sit qak nani ami cehtaak hyt hawh hy. Ka nik kqawn peek, ‘Bawipa ming ing ak law taw a zoseen hy,’ tinawh nak kqawn hlan dy taw kai ve amni hu qoe voel kawp ti,” tina hy.
Look, your house is abandoned to you. And I tell you, you will not see me until you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'"
