Luke 13
1 Taciang Pilate in amate biakpiakna taw Galilee te thisan hel hi, ci in Jesus kung ah a son pawlkhat om hi.
NOW there were some present at that time who informed him of the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.
2 Jesus in amate tung ah hibang in zo hi, Hi Galilee mite sia tabang a thuak uh hu in, a dang Galilee mite theampo sang in mawzaw uh hi, ci in ngaisun nu ziam?
And Jesus in reply said to them, Think ye that these Galileans were sinners above all the Galileans, because they suffered such things?
3 Kong ci hi, hi ngawl hi: ahihang noma zong na ki sikkik bua uh le, na vekpi in tabangma in na lalcip tu uh hi.
I tell you, No: for except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
4 Siloam tausang cim in hukcip a, a thi sawm le liat te, Jerusalem a teang ngualdang te sang in mawzaw uh hi, ci in ngaisun nu ziam?
Or those eighteen, on whom the tower in Siloam fell, and killed them, think ye that they were debtors to divine justice above all the men who dwell at Jerusalem?
5 Kong son hi, hi ngawl hi: ahihang note zong na ki sikkik bua uh le, na vekpi in tabangma in na lalcip tu uh hi, ci hi.
I tell you, No: but except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
6 Jesus in hi sontena zong son hi; Mi khat in a sapit huan sung ah theikung khat suan hi; taciang a nga zong tu in hongpai a, khat zong mu ngawl hi.
Then he spake this parable: A certain man had a fig-tree planted in his vineyard; and he came, expecting fruit on it, and found none.
7 Taciang in sapit huan cing te tung ah, en in, hi theikung tung ah a nga zong tu in ka pai a, kum thum sung khat zong mu ngawl khi hi: phuk lel in; banghang in leitang deap lel in koi tu hi ziam? ci hi.
Then said he to the vine-dresser, Lo! for three years have I come, expecting fruit on this fig-tree, and find none: cut it down; why doth it render the ground thus useless?
8 Huan cing pa in, Topa awng, tu kum sung om hi lai po hen, a kiim teng pan lei taw tu khi hi, taciang eaklei pia phot hi lai tu khi hi:
He answering said to him, Sir, let it e’en remain this year, until that I dig around it, and spread some manure:
9 Hong nga a hile, pha hi: taciang hong nga bale la tua zawkciang phuk in, ci hi, ci in zo kik hi.
perhaps it may then produce fruit: but if it does not, afterwards thou shalt cut it down.
10 Jesus sabbath ni khat synagogue khat sung ah thuhil hi.
And he was teaching in one of the synagogues, on the sabbath.
11 Taciang, en vun, cinasak doai in kum sawm le kum liat sung zawngkhal in a thaneamsak numei khat om hi, taciang ama sia a cing zong bawng a, bangbang po in a om zong ama le ama ki mamsak thei ngawl hi.
And, behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and unable to raise herself at all up.
12 Tua nu Jesus in a mu ciang in, a kung ah sam a, Nu mei awng, na natna pan in na suakta zo hi, ci hi.
But when Jesus saw her, he called out aloud, and said to her, Woman, thou art delivered from thine infirmity.
13 Jesus in a tung ah a khut nga hi: ta sia pociang thakhat thu in ding tang thei a, Pathian pok hi.
And he laid his hands upon her: and instantly she became erect, and glorified God.
14 Jesus in sabbath ni in a damsak hu in, synagogue lampui pa a thin-uk a, ni luk sung nasep ngeina hi: tua ahikom tua ni luk sung in hongpai tavun, sabbath ni ah hongpai heak vun, ci hi.
Then the ruler of the synagogue, indignant, that on the sabbath Jesus had performed the cure, addressing himself to the multitude, said, There are six days in which work is to be done: on these therefore come and be cured, and not on the sabbath-day.
15 Tasiaciang in Topa in, Nang a ki hitheamsak pa, note sung ah khatpo, sabbath ni in na khui uh a hibale, na laa uh a khau sut in, tui dawn tu in paipui hi ngawl nu ziam?
Then the Lord answered him, and said, Thou hypocrite, doth not every one of you on the sabbath loose his ox or his ass from the manger, and lead him to water?
16 Kum sawm le kum liat sung Satan hencip, Abraham tanu sia tua a ki hencip napan sabbath ni in suatak tu hi ngawl ziam? ci in zo kik hi.
And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, to be loosed from this bond on the sabbath-day?
17 Hi teng a son zawkciang in, a ngal te theampo maizum in om uh hi: taciang Jesus in a vawt nalamdang te hang in mi theampo lungdam uh hi.
And when he had made this speech, all his opposers were covered with shame: and all the multitude rejoiced in all the glorious things which were done by him.
18 Jesus in, Pathian kumpingam sia bangtaw kibang ziam? bangtaw sonte tu khi ziam?
Then said he, To what is the kingdom of God like? and whereunto shall I compare it?
19 Mi khat in ankamci la a, huansung ah a poai taw kibang hi; tua anci hong khang a, thingkung lianpui hong suak hi; a bak te tung ah van a vacim te ngiak hi.
It is like a grain of mustard, which a man took and put into his garden; and it grew, and became a great tree; and the fowls of the air lodged on its branches.
20 Jesus in son thua kik a, Pathian kumpingam sia bangtaw sonte tu khi ziam? ci kik hi.
And again he said, To what shall I liken the kingdom of God?
21 Nupi khat in tol la a, an hui law thum sung ah hel hi, tua tol in an hui theampo a thosak taw kibang hi.
It is like leaven, which a woman taking, covered up in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
22 Jesus Jerusalem sang ah pai a, khuapi le khuano tampi ah pai in thuhil hi.
And he passed through the cities and villages, teaching, and making his way towards Jerusalem.
23 Khat hongpai a, Topa awng, ngupna a nga tu mihing tawmbek a hi ziam? ci in dong hi. Tasiaciang Jesus in,
And a person said to him, Lord, are the saved few? And he said unto them,
24 Kongkha ciak na pan tum tu in hanciam vun, banghangziam cile mihing tampi te tuaksung ah tum tu hanciam napi, a tum thei bua uh hi.
Exert all your powers to enter through the strait gate: for many, I tell you, will seek to enter, but will not be able.
25 Innteakpa topa sia khat vei tho a, kongkha a kha zawkciang in, note a puasang ah ding in kongkha na king uh a, Topa, Topa awng, kong hong hon tan; na ci uh ciang in, Topa in, koisung pan hongpai nu ziam, hong he ngei ngawl khi hi, hong ci tu hi:
When the master of the family shall have arisen, and shut the door, and ye shall begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Master, master, open it for us! and he answering will tell you, I know you not whence ye are:
26 Tasiaciang in, note in, na mai ah an ne tui dawn in om khu hi, taciang ka lampi uh ah zong thuhil ni hi, ci tu uh hi.
then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.
27 Ahihang ama in, hong son khi hi, kong pan hongpai nu ziam, hong he ngawl khi hi; no na pha ngawl seam te, ka kung pan tai tavun, ci tu hi.
And he will say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.
28 Abraham, Isaac, Jacob le kamsang theampo te sia Pathian kumpingam sung ah na mu uh ciang in, note sia a puasang ah hong vawk tu a, tua mun ah kaana le ha ngoaina om tu hi.
There shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom, and yourselves cast out.
29 Amate sia nisua na sang, nitum na sang, sak le thang pan in hongpai tu uh a, Pathian kumpingam sung ah to tek tu uh hi.
And they shall come from the east, and west, and from north, and south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God.
30 Taciang, en vun, a khakbel te masabel tu a, a masabel te nungkhakbel tu hi, ci hi.
And, behold, there are last who shall be first, and there are first who shall be last.
31 Tua ni in Pharisee pawlkhat te Jesus kung ah hongpai uh a, hi mun pan pusuak in a, pai in: banghangziam cile Herod in hong that tu hi, ci uh hi.
The same day came certain Pharisees, saying to him, Depart, and begone from hence: for Herod will kill thee.
32 Taciang Jesus in amate tung ah, Pai tavun a, tua ngia tung ah son vun, en in, doai te hawlkhia khi hi, taciang tuni le zingciang cina te damsak khi hi, taciang nithum na ciang in ka cialcing tu hi.
And he said to them, Go tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and perform cures today and to-morrow, and on the third day I shall be perfected.
33 Ahihang tu ni, zingciang le thai ciang vak hamtang tu khi hi: banghangziam cile kamsang khat sia Jerusalem puasang ah lalcip thei ngawl hi.
But I must go on to-day and to-morrow, and the day following: for it is impossible that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem.
34 Maw Jerusalem, Jerusalem awng, kamsang te na that a, na tung ah a ki sawl te suangtum taw na deang hi; akpui in a note a tha nuai ah a uap bang in, tamvei mama hong uap nuam ka hi hang, na uk bua hi!
O Jerusalem! Jerusalem! thou that killest the prophets, and stonest those who are sent unto thee; how often would I have collected thy children unto me, just as a hen gathereth her brood under her wings, and ye would not!
35 En vun, na inn uh dap khipkhep in ki nusia tu hi: a mantak kong ci ciang, Topa min taw hongpai pa thuphatoai a hihi, na ci uh mateng, note in hong mu nawn ngawl tu nu hi, ci hi.
Behold, your house is left unto you desolate: verily I say unto you, That ye shall see me no more, till the day come when ye shall say, Blessed is he who cometh in the name of the Lord.
