< Luke 18 >

1 Nikhat Yeshuan aseijuite ataojing nadiu leh alhahdai lou nadiu vetsahnan thusim khat aseipeh e.
He also spoke a parable to them that they must always pray and not give up,
2 “Khopi khat a hin thutan khat Pathen ginglou chule miho khohsah na jong neilou khat aumin ahi.
saying, “There was a judge in a certain city who didn’t fear God and didn’t respect man.
3 Chuche khopia meithai khat chu kinong chel'in ahung jingin, ‘Kagalmi hotoh kakiboinau hi thu adih in neitan peh'in,’ ahung tijin ahi.
A widow was in that city, and she often came to him, saying, ‘Defend me from my adversary!’
4 Thutan pan phat chomkhat amanu chu isahlou tah in anakoiyin, ahin achainakeiyin hitin akihoulim in, Keiman Pathen kaging pon ahiloule miho jong hole tilou kahi,
He wouldn’t for a while; but afterward he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect man,
5 ahivangin hiche numei nu hin eisungol lhatai. Keiman thu adih'a tanlhah peh ahinadin vetpeh inge. Ajeh chu amanu hin athilthum jinga kon hin ei sulungvai lhatai,” ati.
yet because this widow bothers me, I will defend her, or else she will wear me out by her continual coming.’”
6 Chuin Pakaiyin aseiyin, “Hiche chondihlou thutanpa a konin kihil un.”
The Lord said, “Listen to what the unrighteous judge says.
7 “Ama jengin jong achaina a thu adih'a tandia ahin gellhah ahi. Hijeh a chu Pathen in alhenchom te, ama koma asun ajan'a kapjing techu thu adih'a atanpeh ding ahi ti nagel lou u ham? Amaho chu donlouvin koijing in te natim?
Won’t God avenge his chosen ones who are crying out to him day and night, and yet he exercises patience with them?
8 Kaseipeh nahiuve, aman kinloitah a thu adih'a atanpeh ding ahi! Ahinlah Mihem Chapa hung kit teng, leiset chunga hin mi ijat tahsan nei mudoh intem?” ati.
I tell you that he will avenge them quickly. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”
9 Chuin Yeshuan hiche thusim hi mi konkhat ama chonphatna a kisonga midang musit ho dingin aseiye:
He also spoke this parable to certain people who were convinced of their own righteousness, and who despised all others:
10 “Mi ni houin ah taona mangin ache lhon'e. Khat chu Pharisee mi ahin, chule adang khatpa chu musit umtah kaidong ahi.
“Two men went up into the temple to pray; one was a Pharisee, and the other was a tax collector.
11 Pharisee mipa chu adingin hitin ataove: ‘Kakipah'e Pathen, adangho banga chonse kahilou jeh in. Ajeh chu lepthol in kabol pon, kachonse pon, chule jonthanhoi jong kabolpoi. Keima atahbeh in khuche kaidongpa tobang kahipoi!
The Pharisee stood and prayed by himself like this: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like the rest of men: extortionists, unrighteous, adulterers, or even like this tax collector.
12 Keiman hapta khat in nivei an kangol'in, kasum mu jat a konin soma khat kapei,’ ati.
I fast twice a week. I give tithes of all that I get.’
13 Ahivangin kaidong pachu gamlatah a adingin chule amit jeng'a jong vanlam ve ngamlouvin ataove. Chusang chun lungkham tah in aman a-op achum'in hitin aseiye, ‘O’ Pathen, neilungset in, ijeh inem itile chonse kahibouve, ati.
But the tax collector, standing far away, wouldn’t even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his chest, saying, ‘God, be merciful to me, a sinner!’
14 Kaseipeh nahiuve, Pharisee pa hilou, hiche chonsepa chu Pathen ang-ah them achangin inlam akiletai. Ijeh inem itile ama kichoisang hochu suhnem'a umding, chule akineosah hochu dopsang'a umdiu ahi,” ati.
I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
15 Nikhat nule pa phabep in achateu chapang neocha chaho chu Yeshuan atham'a phatthei aboh dingin ahin puiyun ahi. Ahivangin aseijuiten hichu amuphat un, anule apateu koma chun ama nasuboi bep uve tin ahouse uvin ahi.
They were also bringing their babies to him, that he might touch them. But when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them.
16 Chuin Yeshuan chapang ho chu akouvin chule aseijuite hengah aseitai, “Chapang ho chu kahengah hung uhen. Jahda hih'un! Ajeh chu Pathen Lenggam chu hiche chapang neocha tobanghoa ding bou ahi.
Yeshua summoned them, saying, “Allow the little children to come to me, and don’t hinder them, for God’s Kingdom belongs to such as these.
17 Thutah kaseipeh nahiuve, koi hileh chapang neocha banga Pathen Lenggam sanglou chu lutlou hel ding ahi,” ati.
Most certainly, I tell you, whoever doesn’t receive God’s Kingdom like a little child, he will in no way enter into it.”
18 Khatvei hou lamkai khat hin hiche thudoh hi adonge: “Houhil pha, tonsot hinna kanei thei na dinga ipi kabol ding ham?” ati. (aiōnios g166)
A certain ruler asked him, saying, “Good Rabbi, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
19 “Ipi bol'a apha tia nei kou ham” tin aledoh in, Pathen bouseh dihtah'a pha ahi.
Yeshua asked him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good, except one: God.
20 Ahin nathudoh donbut nan, thupeh ho nahet chula: “Nangman jon bol hih'in, tolthat hih'in, gucha hih'in, jouvin mi hehse hih in, nanu napa jabol in,” ati.
You know the commandments: ‘Don’t commit adultery,’ ‘Don’t murder,’ ‘Don’t steal,’ ‘Don’t give false testimony,’ ‘Honour your father and your mother.’”
21 Mipan adonbut in, “Hiche thupeh ho jouse hi kachapan laiya pat kajui sohkei ahitai,” ati.
He said, “I have observed all these things from my youth up.”
22 Yeshuan adonbutna thu ajah phat chun, hitin aseitai, “Nabol loulai thilkhat aume. Nanei jouse joh in lang hiche sum chu mivaicha ho pen, chutileh van'a gou nanei ding ahi. Chuteng hungin, neijuiyin,” ati.
When Yeshua heard these things, he said to him, “You still lack one thing. Sell all that you have and distribute it to the poor. Then you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me.”
23 Ahivangin mipa chun hichu ajahdoh phat in alung kham lheh tan ahi, ijeh inem itile amachu haosatah ahi.
But when he heard these things, he became very sad, for he was very rich.
24 Yeshuan hichu amuphat in, aseitai, “Mihaosa Pathen Lenggam alut ding hi iti hah hitam!”
Yeshua, seeing that he became very sad, said, “How hard it is for those who have riches to enter into God’s Kingdom!
25 “Atahbeh in, heobil hom'a sangongsao alut galkai ding hi mihaosa Pathen Lenggam a alut ding sangin abaijoi,” ati.
For it is easier for a camel to enter in through a needle’s eye than for a rich man to enter into God’s Kingdom.”
26 Hiche akisei jajouse chun aseiyun, “Achutileh vannoi leiset'a koiham huhhing na chang jou ding?” atiuve.
Those who heard it said, “Then who can be saved?”
27 Aman adonbut in, “Mihem dinga hithei lou chu Pathen dinga hithei ahi,” ati.
But he said, “The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.”
28 Peter in aseiyin, “Keihon nangma jui dingin ka-in'u kadalhauve,” ati.
Peter said, “Look, we have left everything and followed you.”
29 Yeshuan adonbut in, “Henge” chuleh ka lhamon nahiuve, “Koihileh Pathen Lenggam jal'a a'in ham, ajinu ham, asopiho ham, ahiloule anu apa ham achate ham pedoh chan chu,
He said to them, “Most certainly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or wife, or brothers, or parents, or children, for God’s Kingdom’s sake,
30 tamtahvei tuhinkhoa hi lepeh'a umdiu chule ahunglhung ding khang'a jong tonsot hinkemlou amuding'u ahi,” ati. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
who will not receive many times more in this time, and in the world to come, eternal life.” (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
31 Seijui somleni ho atumbeh'in apuidoh in, Yeshuan ajah uva aseiye, “Ngaiyun, eiho Jerusalem chetou ding ihiuve, Mihem Chapa chungchang thudol'a themgao thusei jouse guilhun na ding mun chu ahi.
He took the twelve aside and said to them, “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things that are written through the prophets concerning the Son of Man will be completed.
32 Amachu Rome te khut'a pehdoh'a umding ahi, chule amachu tot thanghoi'a umding, jachat umtah'a kibol ding, chil kisetkhum ding ahi.
For he will be delivered up to the Gentiles, will be mocked, treated shamefully, and spit on.
33 Amahon avoh'uva chule athadiu ahi, ahivanga anithum nileh thoukit ding ahi,” ati.
They will scourge and kill him. On the third day, he will rise again.”
34 Ahin, amahon hitiho thuhi khatcha ahethei pouve. Athusei ho athupije chu amaho a kona ki im mang ahi, hijeh a chu athusei chu amattoh thei lou u ahitai.
They understood none of these things. This saying was hidden from them, and they didn’t understand the things that were said.
35 Yeshuan Jericho anaisuh lai hin, mitcho khutdo khat lamsih'ah ana touve.
As he came near Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the road, begging.
36 Aman mihonpi kijot khuto gin ajah phat in, ipi thu hitam ti adongin ahi.
Hearing a multitude going by, he asked what this meant.
37 Nazereth Yeshuan hikom chu ahopa ahi ti aseipeh tauve.
They told him that Yeshua of Nazareth was passing by.
38 Hijeh chun amapa ahung eojah tan, “Yeshua, David chapa, neilungset in!” ahintin ahi.
He cried out, “Yeshua, you son of David, have mercy on me!”
39 “Thip'in” tin masang langa miho chun ahutot tauvin ahi. Ahivangin ama awgingjep in ahapen cheh tan, “David Chapa, neilungset in!” ati.
Those who led the way rebuked him, that he should be quiet; but he cried out all the more, “You son of David, have mercy on me!”
40 Yeshuan ajahdoh phat in, adingin mipa chu ahinpui lut diuvin athupeh tai. Mipa ahung nai toh lhonin Yeshuan adongin,
Standing still, Yeshua commanded him to be brought to him. When he had come near, he asked him,
41 “Ipi nabolpeh leng natim?” tin adong tai. Aman, “Pakai, kho muleng kati!” ati.
“What do you want me to do?” He said, “Lord, that I may see again.”
42 Chuin Yeshuan aseiyin, “Aphai, kho mutan! Natahsan in nadamsah ahitai,” ati.
Yeshua said to him, “Receive your sight. Your faith has healed you.”
43 Apettah chun mipa chun kho amutai chuleh amapan Yeshua nung ajuiyin Pathen avahchoi tai. Chuleh amujousen jong Pathen avahchoi cheh tauve.
Immediately he received his sight and followed him, glorifying God. All the people, when they saw it, praised God.
