Luke 8
1 Tua zawkciang in, Jesus sia Pathian kumpingam lungdamna thupha son tu in khuapi le khua no sang ah nungzui sawmleni te taw pai hi,
And it happened afterwards that he was making a journey through the cities and towns, preaching and evangelizing the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with him,
2 Taciang natna a tatuam le doai ngilo vei na pan a damsak numei te, tua numei te sung ah, a sung pan doai sali a hawlkhiatsak Mary magdalene,
along with certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary, who is called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had departed,
3 Herod i neisa keam Chuza i zi Joanna, Susanna le a dang tampi te in amate neisa te taw Jesus paai uh hi.
and Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod’s steward, and Susanna, and many other women, who were ministering to him from their resources.
4 Khua tatuam pan in mi tampi te Jesus kung ah hong ki kaikhop ciang in, thu sontena son a:
Then, when a very numerous crowd was gathering together and hurrying from the cities to him, he spoke using a comparison:
5 Thaici poai khat thaici poai tu in pai hi: a poai ciang in, pawlkhat te lamlai ah tak hi; tate sia ki sikcil lel a, van a leang vacim te in ne siat hi.
“The sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, some fell beside the way; and it was trampled and the birds of the air devoured it.
6 Pawlkhat te sia suang tung ah tak a; a po zawkpociang ngawtak pai hi, banghangziam cile lei hing ngawl hang a hihi.
And some fell upon rock; and having sprung up, it withered away, because it had no moisture.
7 Thaici pawlkhat te sia lingphung sung ah tak hi; ling te taw khangkhawm a, ling te in deapcip hi.
And some fell among thorns; and the thorns, rising up with it, suffocated it.
8 A dang te sia leipha na mun ah tak a, po in a se zakhat in khang hi. Taciang hi thu te a son zawkciang in, Zak natu bil nei theampo in za ta uh hen, ci au hi.
And some fell upon good soil; and having sprung up, it produced fruit one hundredfold.” As he said these things, he cried out, “Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.”
9 Taciang a nungzui te in, hi sontena a khiakna bang ziam? ci in dong hi.
Then his disciples questioned him as to what this parable might mean.
10 Jesus in, Pathian kumpingam thuku te heak thei na note tung ah hong ki pia zo hi: ahihang ngualdang te tung ah sontena te bek taw ki son tu hi; en napi mu ngawl tu uh hi, ngai na pi tel tuan ngawl tu uh hi.
And he said to them: “To you it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God. But to the rest, it is in parables, so that: seeing, they may not perceive, and hearing, they may not understand.
11 Hi sontena sia hibang a hihi: thaici sia Pathian kammal a hihi.
Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
12 Lampi ah a tak thaici sia Pathian kammal za napi, um in ngupna a nga thei ngawl natu in, doaimangpa hongpai a amate thinsung pan in Pathian kammal te laksak siat hi.
And those beside the way are those who hear it, but then the devil comes and takes the word from their heart, lest by believing it they may be saved.
13 Suang tung ah a tak thaici te sia, Pathian kammal za a, lungdam in sang napi, zung a nei ngawl hang in tawmvei sung um a, ze-etna hun ciang pukkik pai hi.
Now those upon rock are those who, when they hear it, accept the word with joy, but these have no roots. So they believe for a time, but in a time of testing, they fall away.
14 Lingphung sung a tak thaici te sia, Pathian kammal za napi, leitung thinngimna, hauna le lungkimna te in deap cip a, nga pha nga zo ngawl hi.
And those which fell among thorns are those who have heard it, but as they go along, they are suffocated by the concerns and riches and pleasures of this life, and so they do not yield fruit.
15 Ahihang leipha na a tak thaici te sia, Pathian kammal a zak uh ciang in, thinsung pha le thuman taw Pathian kammal za a, keamcing ahikom thuakna taw nga pha a nga te a hihi.
But those which were on good soil are those who, upon hearing the word with a good and noble heart, retain it, and they bring forth fruit in patience.
16 Kuama in khuaimei a det uh ciang in khum taw sin ngei ngawl a, lupna nuai ah zong koi ngei ngawl hi; ahihang innsung a tum te in a vaangtang a mu thei natu in meidet na munsang ah koi hi.
Now no one, lighting a candle, covers it with a container, or sets it under a bed. Instead, he places it on a lampstand, so that those who enter may see the light.
17 Banghangziam cile a kilang ngawl tu in sealcip thei om ngawl a; heak ngawl tu le ki thethang ngawl tu in phual thei na zong om ngawl hi.
For there is nothing secret, which will not be made clear, nor is there anything hidden, which will not be known and be brought into plain sight.
18 Tua ahikom na thu zak uh te kidawm vun, banghangziam cile a kuamapo a nei te ki pia tu a; a nei ngawl khatpo zong a nei bang in a ngaisut te ki laksak vet lai tu hi, ci hi.
Therefore, take care how you listen. For whoever has, it will be given to him; and whoever does not have, even what he thinks he has will be taken away from him.”
19 Jesus a nu le a suapui te hongpai uh ahihang, mi tamlei ahikom a kung ah pai thei ngawl hi.
Then his mother and brothers came to him; but they were not able to go to him because of the crowd.
20 Mi khat in Jesus kung ah, na nu le na suapui te nangma taw ki mu nuam in a puasang ah ding hi, ci in son hi.
And it was reported to him, “Your mother and your brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.”
21 Taciang Jesus in amate tung ah, Pathian thu ngai in, a seam te sia ka nu le ka suapui te a hi uh hi, ci in zo kik hi.
And in response, he said to them, “My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and do it.”
22 Nikhat Jesus a nungzui te taw ngunkuang sung ah to uh a: amate tung ah, Tuili ngalkhat ah pai tawng, ci hi. Taciang ngunkuang taw pai tek uh hi.
Now it happened, on a certain day, that he climbed into a little boat with his disciples. And he said to them, “Let us make a crossing over the lake.” And they embarked.
23 Ahihang ngunkuang taw a pai uh laitak in Jesus mu hi: tuili tung ah huipi suangval hong va hi; taciang ngunkuang sung ah tuidim in, a lauhuai mama dinmun hong theng hi.
And as they were sailing, he slept. And a windstorm descended over the lake. And they were taking on water and were in danger.
24 Nungzui te Jesus kung pai in phong a, Topa, Topa, bo cip khu hi, ci uh hi. Jesus hong tho a, huipi le tuihual te tei hi: taciang amate thim uh a, dai dide hi.
Then, drawing near, they awakened him, saying, “Teacher, we are perishing.” But as he rose up, he rebuked the wind and the raging water, and they ceased. And a tranquility occurred.
25 Jesus in amate tung ah, Na upna uh kongsung ziam? ci hi. Taciang amate lau le lamdangsa in, hisia pa sia bangbang mihing ziam! banghangziam cile ama in huipi le tui te thupia a, a thu ni uh hi, ci in khat le khat kikum uh hi.
Then he said to them, “Where is your faith?” And they, being afraid, were amazed, saying to one another, “Who do you think this is, so that he commands both wind and sea, and they obey him?”
26 Taciang amate sia Galilee ngalkhat, Gadarenes ngam ah hong theng uh hi.
And they sailed to the region of the Gerasenes, which is opposite Galilee.
27 Jesus tuihui ah hong kato ciang in, doai a vei zawk a ngei mama zo khat taw ki si uh hi, ama sia puansil ngawl in, inn zong om ngei ngawl a, than sung bebek ah om hi.
And when he had gone out to the land, a certain man met him, who had now had a demon for a long time. And he did not wear clothes, nor did he stay in a house, but among the sepulchers.
28 Jesus a mu ciang in, au a, a mai ah bok in, taciang aw ngingtak taw, Jesus, nang a sangbel Pathian Tapa, nang taw bang kisaina nei hi ziam? hong vawtsia heak in, hesuak kong ngen hi, ci hi.
And when he saw Jesus, he fell down before him. And crying out in a loud voice, he said: “What is there between me and you, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg you not to torture me.”
29 Banghangziam cile Jesus in tha-nin sia mihing sung pan pusuak tu in thu pia zo hi. Tamvei mama doai ngilo in ama man hi: taciang ama sia saikhau le thikkhau taw hen uh ahihang; a hen nate bottan in, doai ngilo in duisung ah paisak hi.
For he was ordering the unclean spirit to depart from the man. For on many occasions, it would seize him, and he was bound with chains and held by fetters. But breaking the chains, he was driven by the demon into deserted places.
30 Jesus in, Na min kua ziam? ci in dong hi, ama in ka min sia Legion, hi ci hi: banghangziam cile doai ngilo tam mama a sung ah tum hi.
Then Jesus questioned him, saying, “What is your name?” And he said, “Legion,” because many demons had entered into him.
31 Doai ngilo te in Jesus kung ah, dum thukpi sung ah a hawlkhiat ngawl natu in ngen hi. (Abyssos g12)
And they petitioned him not to order them to go into the abyss. (Abyssos g12)
32 Mualtung ah vokhon tam mama anne in om hi: taciang doai ngilo te in Jesus tung ah vokhon sung ah tumsak natu in ngen uh a, Jesus in tumsak hi.
And in that place, there was a herd of many swine, pasturing on the mountain. And they petitioned him to permit them to enter into them. And he permitted them.
33 Tua pa sung pan in doai ngilo te pusuak a, vokhon sung ah tum hi: vokhon te sia liang pan ki nuntaw suk in tuili sung ah tuita in thi siat hi.
Therefore, the demons departed from the man, and they entered into the swine. And the herd rushed violently down a precipice into the lake, and they were drowned.
34 Vokcing te in thupiang teng a mu uh ciang, tai uh a, tua thu khuasung le khuano tatuam te ah son hi.
And when those who were pasturing them had seen this, they fled and reported it in the city and the villages.
35 Tua thupiang en tu in mi tampi pusuak uh a; Jesus kung ah hongpai uh hi, taciang a sung pan doai ngilo a pusuak pa nik le puan sil in, thinsung man in Jesus peang kung ah a to a mu uh ciang in, lau tek mama uh hi.
Then they went out to see what was happening, and they came to Jesus. And they found the man, from whom the demons had departed, sitting at his feet, clothed as well as in a sane mind, and they were afraid.
36 Tua pa a mu uh ciang in doai ngilo vei in a thin-am pa a damkik na thu ngualdang te son uh hi.
Then those who had seen this also reported to them how he had been healed from the legion.
37 Tasiaciang Gadarenes ngam le a kiimkot a om mihonpi theampo in amate kung pan pusuak tu in ngen uh hi; banghangziam cile amate lau mama uh hi: taciang Jesus sia ngunkuang sung ah to a, cia kik hi.
And the entire multitude from the region of the Gerasenes pleaded with him to depart from them. For they were seized by a great fear. Then, climbing into the boat, he went back again.
38 A sung pan doai ngilo tampi a pusuak pa in Jesus zui tu in ngen hi: ahihang Jesus in ama paisak a,
And the man from whom the demons had departed pleaded with him, so that he might be with him. But Jesus sent him away, saying,
39 Na inn ah cia tan a, Pathian in nangma atu in na lianpi hong vawtsak te son in, ci hi. Tua pa zong pai a, Jesus in ama atu a vawtsak na lianpi te khuasung theampo ah tangko hi.
“Return to your house and explain to them what great things God has done for you.” And he traveled through the entire city, preaching about the great things that Jesus had done for him.
40 Jesus a heakkik ciang in, mite in lungdamtak in sang uh hi: banghangziam cile a vekpi in ama ngak tek uh hi.
Now it happened that, when Jesus had returned, the crowd received him. For they were all waiting for him.
41 Taciang, en vun Jairus a kici, synagogue lampui khat hongpai hi: taciang a inn ah pai tu in a peang ah bok in thum hi.
And behold, a man came, whose name was Jairus, and he was a leader of the synagogue. And he fell down at the feet of Jesus, asking him to enter into his house.
42 Banghangziam cile a tanu neisun sia kum sawm le kum ni kiim hi a, thi dektak in zau hi. Ahihang Jesus a pai ciang in ngual in phul kheukho hi.
For he had an only daughter, nearly twelve years old, and she was dying. And it happened that, as he was going there, he was hemmed in by the crowd.
43 Tuate sung ah numei khat kum sawm le kum ni sung thisuak in a nei theampo syavuan te tung ah zangsiat napi, kuama in damsak thei ngawl hi.
And there was a certain woman, with a flow of blood for twelve years, who had paid out all her substance on physicians, and she was unable to be cured by any of them.
44 Jesus nung pan pai in, a puan mong dawn a tham pociang, a thisuak tawlnga hi.
She approached him from behind, and she touched the hem of his garment. And at once the flow of her blood stopped.
45 Taciang Jesus in, Kua na hong tham nu ziam? ci hi. Mi theampo in nial uh a, Peter le a kung ah a om te in, Topa awng, mihonpi in hong phul kheukho in hong neng cip hi, banghang in, kua in hong tham nu ziam ci ni ziam? ci uh hi.
And Jesus said, “Who is it that touched me?” But as everyone was denying it, Peter, and those who were with him, said: “Teacher, the crowd hems you in and presses upon you, and yet you say, ‘Who touched me?’”
46 Jesus in, Khat in hong tham hi: banghangziam cile ka sung pan in vangletna a pusuak hunlam he khi hi, ci hi.
And Jesus said: “Someone has touched me. For I know that power has gone out from me.”
47 Numeinu in ki im thei ngawl tu hi, ci a tel ciang, huang vadil kawm in hongpai a, Jesus mai ah bok hi, mi theampo mai ah, banghang in Jesus tham ci le, thakhatthu in a dam na thu pualak hi.
Then the woman, upon seeing that she was not hidden, came forward, trembling, and she fell down before his feet. And she declared before all the people the reason that she had touched him, and how she had been immediately healed.
48 Jesus in, Ka tanu awng, patau heak in: na upna in hong damsak zo hi; thinnuamtak in cia in, ci hi.
But he said to her: “Daughter, your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”
49 Taciang Jesus a pau laitak in, synagogue lampui pa inn pan khat hongpai a, na tanu thi zo hi; Syapa nawngkaisak nawn heak in, ci hi.
While he was still speaking, someone came to the ruler of the synagogue, saying to him: “Your daughter is dead. Do not trouble him.”
50 Ahihang Jesus in, tua thu za a, Lau heak in: um bek um in, taciang ama dam tu hi, ci in zo kik hi.
Then Jesus, upon hearing this word, replied to the father of the girl: “Do not be afraid. Only believe, and she will be saved.”
51 Jesus tua inn a thet ciang in, Peter, James, John le patangno i nu le pa simngawl kuama innsung ah tumsak ngawl hi.
And when he had arrived at the house, he would not permit anyone to enter with him, except Peter and James and John, and the father and mother of the girl.
52 Mi theampo kap uh a, tua nu sia nasia tak in ka tek uh hi: ahihang Jesus in, Kap heak vun; ama thi ngawl hi, a mu hi, ci hi.
Now all were weeping and mourning for her. But he said: “Do not weep. The girl is not dead, but only sleeping.”
53 Numei no sia thi hi, ci he tek zo a hi uh man in Jesus selno in nuisan uh hi.
And they derided him, knowing that she had died.
54 Jesus in a vekpi in pusuaksak siat hi, taciang numeino khut pan len in sam a, Tanu no, tho in, ci hi.
But he, taking her by the hand, cried out, saying, “Little girl, arise.”
55 Tasiaciang a thaa hong heakkik a, thakhatthu in thokik hi: taciang Jesus in, an pia tu in thupia hi.
And her spirit returned, and she immediately rose up. And he ordered them to give her something to eat.
56 Taciang a nu le a pa te in lamdangsa mama hi: ahihang Jesus in a sep thu kuama tung son ngawl tu in vaitha hi.
And her parents were stupefied. And he instructed them not to tell anyone what had happened.
