Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan River and was led by the Spirit into the desert,

where he was tempted by the devil for forty days. He didn't eat anything during that whole time, so at the end he was starving.
3 Qaai ing a venawh, “Khawsa Capa na na awm awhtaw, vawhkaw lung ve phaihpi na coeng sak lah,” tina hy.
The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.”
4 Jesu ing, “Thlang ve phaihpi doeng ing ak hqing am ni, tinawh qee na awm hy,” tina hy.
“It is written in Scripture, ‘You shall not live on bread alone,’” Jesus answered.
5 Qaai ing hun a sangnaak na ceh pyi nawh khawmdek awhkaw qam boeih boeih ce huh hy.
The devil led him up to a high place, and in a rapid view showed him all the kingdoms of the world.

Then the devil said to Jesus, “I will give you authority over all of them, and their glory. This authority has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want.
7 Kai ve ni beek nawh, a cu boeih ve nang aham seh nyng,” tina hy.
Bow down and worship me and you can have it all.”
8 Jesu ing, “Bawipa na Khawsa doeng ce beek nawh anih a bi doeng ce bi lah, tinawh qeena ak awm ni,” tina hy.
“It is written in Scripture, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve only him,’” Jesus replied.

The devil took Jesus to Jerusalem, set him on the top of the Temple, and told him, “If you are the Son of God, then jump!

For it is written in Scripture, ‘He will order his angels to care for you,

holding you up to protect you from stumbling over a stone.’”
12 Jesu ing, “Bawipa na Khawsa ce koeh noek koeh dak,” tinawh ak awm ni,” tina hy.
“It is written in Scripture, ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God,’” Jesus replied.
13 Qaai ing a sykzoek coengawh, a tym leek a awm hlan dy cehta hy.
When the devil had completed all his temptations, he waited for another opportunity.

Jesus returned to Galilee, full of the Spirit's power. News about him spread everywhere.

Jesus taught in their synagogues, and everyone praised him.

When he arrived in Nazareth, where he had grown up, he went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day as usual.
17 Tawngha Isaiah ak cazawl ce pe uhy. Hlam nawh vemyihna a qee ce hu hy:
The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Jesus unrolled the scroll and found the place where it's written:
18 ”Khawsa ang Myihla taw kak khan awh awm nawh, khawdengkhqi venawh awithang leek kqawn aham kai ve ni caksak hawh hy. Thawng ak tlakhqi venawh loetnaak awi ingkaw mikhypkhqi venawh mik dainaak awi khypyi aham, phep qeena ak awmkhqi loet sak ham ingkaw,
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, for he has anointed me to announce good news to the destitute. He has sent me to proclaim that prisoners will be released, the blind will see, the oppressed will be freed,

Everybody expressed their approval of him, amazed at the gracious words that came from his lips. “Isn't this Joseph's son?” they wondered.

Jesus replied, “I'm sure you'll repeat this proverb to me, ‘Physician, heal yourself!’ and ask, ‘Why don't you do here in your own hometown what we heard you did in Capernaum?’
24 Awitak ka nik kqawn peek khqi, tawngha a u awm amah a khaw awh am do khawi uhy.
But I tell you the truth, no prophet is accepted in his hometown.
25 Elijah chan awh Israel ram khuiawh nuhai khawzah awm hy, kum thum coengawh hla quk khui khan chawmkeng khaih na a awm awh ram pum awh khaw se hy.
I guarantee that there were many widows in Israel during the time of Elijah when there was a drought for three and a half years, causing a great famine throughout the country.
26 Cehlai Sidon ram khuiawh ak awm Zarephath khaw awhkaw nuhai a ven doeng awh am awhtaw Elijah ce u a venawh awm tyih na am awm hy.

Even though there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha, the only one who was healed was Naaman the Syrian!”

When they heard this everyone in the synagogue became furious.
29 Dyi unawh, khawk khuiawh kawng anih ce khawceng na ceh pyi unawh, hqeng na buk hoek aham qyt uhy, cawhkaw khaw taw minpoeng ak chei ca awh awm hy.
They jumped to their feet and threw him out of the town. Then they dragged him to the top of the hill on which the town was built in order to throw him off the cliff.
30 Cehlai thlang kqeng anglakawhkawng kit qu pluk nawh cen valh hy.
But he walked right through them and went on his way.
31 Cekcoengawh Kalili qam Kaperanuam khaw na nu cet nawh, Sabbath nyn awh thlang cawngpyi hy.
Jesus went down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee. On Sabbath he started teaching them.
32 Ak awih kqawnnaak awh saithainaak a awm a dawngawh, a cawngpyinaak awh amik kawpoek kyi hy.
They were amazed at what he taught them for he spoke with authority.

In the synagogue there was a man who was possessed by a demon. He cried out,
34 “A! Nazareth Jesu, kaimih ingqawi ikaw ning laknaak a awm? Anik hqe khqi hamna nak law nanawh nu? Nang ve Khawsa ak thlang ciim ni tice ni sim nyng,” tina hy.
“So, what do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: God's Holy One!”
35 Jesu ing, “Awm poek! Anih ak khuiawh kawng cawn hlah,” tinawh zyi hy. Cawh qaai ing a mingmih a haiawh dek na ang tluuk sak coengawh ikaw awm myn a maa a peek kaana anih a pum khui awhkawng cawn hy.
Jesus interrupted him, saying. “Be quiet!” Then he ordered the demon, “Come out of him!” Throwing him to the ground right before them, the demon left the man without injuring him.
36 Thlang boeih amik kawpoek kyi nawh, “Kawmih cawngpyinaak hy voei aw? Saithainaak thaawmnaak ing qaih chekhqi awi pe nawh ak cawn sak hy voei!” ti uhy.
They were all amazed and asked each other, “What is this teaching? With power and authority he orders evil spirits to leave—and they do!”
37 Anih ak awithang ce a kengsam qam kqang thang khawnghak hy.
News about Jesus spread throughout the nearby region.

Leaving the synagogue, Jesus went to Simon's house. Simon's mother-in-law was sick with a high fever and those who were there asked Jesus to help.
39 Cawh a kengawh dyi nawh satlawhnaak ce zyi hy, cawh a satlawh ce qoei tlang hy. Cawhkaw nu ce tho nawh a mingmih ce do a dan khqi hy.

When the sun set, they brought to him all who were sick, suffering from various diseases. Jesus placed his hands on them, one after the other, and he healed them.
41 Qaaikhqi ce thlang ak kawk khui awhkawng cawn unawh, “Nang ve Khawsa Capa ni!” tinawh khy uhy. Cekkhqi ce zyi khqi saw, Khrih ni tice a mi sim a dawngawh am pau uhy.
Demons came out of many people, shouting, “You are the Son of God.” But Jesus stopped them and refused to let them speak because they knew he was the Christ.

Early the following morning Jesus left to find some peace and quiet. But the crowds went out looking for him, and finally found him. They tried to stop him leaving because they did not want him to go.
43 Cehlai a mingmih a venawh, “Khawsa awithang leek ve khawk chang kqang awm kak kqawn aham awm hy, ve aham nani tyih na ka awm hy,” tinak khqi hy.
But he told them, “I have to go to other towns to tell them the good news of the kingdom of God too, because that is what I was sent to do.”
44 Cedawngawh Judah awh awm nawh Sinakawk awh awithang leek kqawn hy.
So Jesus went on traveling around, teaching the good news in the synagogues of Judea.
