Luk 21
1 Hahoi, Jisuh ni a khet teh, katawntanaw ni amamae poehnonaw hah tangkabom dawk a pâseng awh hah e a hmu.
[Jesus] looked up [from where he was sitting] and saw rich people putting their gifts into the [offering] boxes [in the Temple courtyard].
2 Ka roedeng e lahmainu buet touh ni hai rahum tangka kahni touh a pâseng van e hah a hmu.
He also saw a poor widow putting in two [small] copper coins.
3 Hahoi, Jisuh ni atangcalah na dei pouh awh, hote lahmainu ni alouknaw pueng hlak kapap lah a pâseng toe, atipouh.
He said [to his disciples], “The truth is that these rich people have a lot of money, [but] they gave [only a small part of it]. But this woman, who is very poor, has put in all the money that she had to pay for the things she needs! So [God considers that] [HYP] this poor widow has put more money into the box than all the others.”
4 Bangkongtetpawiteh, alouke pueng ni teh a tawn awh e thung dawk hoi poehno a pâseng awh. Hatei, hote lahmainu ni teh a mathoe ei, a kâkawk nahane a tawn e pueng hah a pasoung toe atipouh.
5 Tami tangawn a tho awh teh bawkim teh lungphen kahawinaw hoi poehnonaw kahawi hoi a pathoup awh, telah a dei pouh.
Some [of Jesus’ disciples] talked about the Temple. [They commented about] the beautiful stones [used in building the Temple] and the other decorations that [people] had given, decorations [that were on the walls]. But he said,
6 Jisuh ni hete hnonaw nangmouh ni na hmu awh. Talung buet touh van buet touh, a ohoehnae tueng ka phat han telah atipouh.
“[I want to tell you something about] these things that you are looking at. [They will be destroyed] {[Foreign invaders will] destroy [these buildings]} [completely]. Every stone [in these buildings] will be thrown down {They will throw down every stone in these buildings}. Not one stone will be left {They will not leave one stone} on top of another.”
7 Bawipa, hete heh nâtuek han maw, hete hno pueng a tho nahan a hnai toe tie panue nahanelah, mitnoutnaw teh bangmaw kaawm han, telah a pacei awh.
[Later] his disciples asked him, “Teacher, when will that happen? What will happen [to the temple] to indicate that the things [you(sg) just told us] are about to happen?”
8 Jisuh ni nangmanaw na ka dum e koe na bawk hoeh nahanelah kâhruetcuet awh. Tami kapap ni ka min kâmahrawk laihoi tho awh vaiteh, kai doeh Khrih toe tet awh vaiteh, atueng a pha toe ati awh han, hatei kâbang awh hanh.
He said, “[All that I will say is], be sure that you are not deceived {that they do not deceive [you]} [about these things]! Many [people] will come and say (that I [sent them]/that they have my authority) [MTY]. They will say, ‘I am [the Messiah]!’ They will also [say] ‘It is now the time [when God will begin to rule]!’ Do not follow them [to become their disciples]
9 Nangmanaw ni tarankâtuk e kamthang, tarankâtuk hane kamthang na thai awh navah na lungpuen awh hanh. Hote hno teh hmaloe kaawm han, hatei, a poutnae phat hoeh rah.
Also, whenever you hear about wars and riots, do not be terrified. Keep in mind that [God has said that] those things must happen. But [when they happen], it will not mean that [the world] will end right away!”
10 Hothloilah miphun buet touh hoi buet touh, uknaeram buet touh hoi buet touh, a kâtaran awh han.
Then he said to them, “[Groups in various] countries will fight each other, and [various] governments [will also fight] against each other.
11 Khoram tangkuem tâlî a no han. Takang a tho han. Patawnae kaawm han. Takikathopounge hno hoi kalenpounge mitnoutnaw teh kalvan hoi a kamnue han.
There will be [big] earthquakes, and in various places there will be famines and plagues. [People will see] things that will terrify them. There will also be unusual things happening in the sky.
12 Hote hnonaw ao hoehnahlan taminaw ni ka min kecu dawk sinakok vah nangmanaw na man awh vaiteh na pacekpahlek awh han. Thongim hai na pabo awh han.
But before all these things happen, [some of] you will be persecuted and arrested {people will persecute some of you and arrest you} [MTY]. [Some of] you will be put {They will put [some of] you} [on trial] in the places where you gather to worship, and [you will be thrown] into prison. You will be put on trial {[They] will put you on trial} in front of high government authorities because you are my [MTY] [disciples].
13 Hot hateh nangmouh hanelah lawkpanuesaknae deinae tueng lah kaawm han.
That will be a time for you to tell [them about me].
14 Hatdawkvah nangmouh ni bangtelamaw ka pathung han aw tie sut na pouk awh hoeh nahanelah kâhruetcuet awh.
So determine within yourselves not to be worrying before that happens what you will say to defend yourselves,
15 Bangkongtetpawiteh tarannaw pueng ni na tâ thai hoeh nahan, na oun thai hoeh nahanelah lawk hoi thoumthainae na poe awh han.
because I will make you wise [HEN] so that you will [know] what to say. As a result, none of your enemies will be able to oppose what you say or (refute you/show that you are wrong).
16 Na manu hoi napa, hmaunawngha rei ka tâcawt e na huikonaw ni nangmanaw teh na pahnawt awh han. Atangawn teh a thei awh han.
[And there will also be other evil things that will happen]: Even your parents and brothers and [other] relatives and friends [who do not believe in me] will (betray you/help your enemies to seize you). They will kill some of you.
17 Tami pueng ni kaie ka min kecu dawk nangmanaw hah na hmuhma awh han.
[In general], most people will [HYP] hate you because [you believe in] me [MTY].
18 Hatei, na lû dawk e sam buet touh boehai kahmat mahoeh.
But your souls will be absolutely safe [IDM].
19 Nangmouh teh na panguepnae lahoi namamae hringnae teh na tawn awh han.
By enduring [all these things people will do to you], you will preserve your [eternal] life [SYN].”
20 Hatnavah Jisuh ni, nangmanaw ni Jerusalem kho hah ransanaw ni a kalup e na hmu navah hote kho teh a rawk han toe tie panuek awh.
“But when you see that Jerusalem has been surrounded by the armies of [your enemies], you will know that it is time for [this city] to be completely destroyed {[them] to completely destroy [this city]}.
21 Hatnavah Judah ram dawk kaawm e taminaw mon lah yawng awh naseh. Kho thung kaawm e taminaw teh alawilah tâcawt awh naseh. Khote lah kaawm e taminaw teh kho thung vah kâen hanh naseh.
At that time those [of you] who are in Judea [district] must flee to the [higher] hills. Those who are in this city must leave [quickly]. Those who are in the nearby countryside must not go back into the city [to get any of their possessions before they flee].
22 Bangkongtetpawiteh het hateh, reknae hnin telah tie lah ao teh Cakathoung dawk a dei e naw pueng a kuep nahanelah kaawm e doeh.
[You must obey what I tell you] because, in order that all the things that are written [in the Scriptures] will be fulfilled, [God] will very severely punish [the people who stay in this city].
23 Hat hnin toteh, camo kaneng e napuinaw hoi camo nene ka pânei e napuinaw teh a temdeng awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh Judah ram dawk pueng hai rucatnae kaawm han, Judah taminaw lathueng lungkhueknae ka phat han.
[I feel] very sorry for women [in this city] who will be pregnant, and women who will be nursing [their babies] in those days, [because it will be very difficult for them to run away! I] feel sorry [because] the people in this [land] will suffer greatly [MTY] [when God punishes them].
24 Ahnimouh teh sarusarai hoi thei lah awm vaiteh kho tangkuem vah san lah a hrawi awh han. Jentelnaw ni Jerusalem kho a coungroe awh vaiteh, atueng a kuep hoeh roukrak a khok rahim a hruek awh han.
Many of them will be killed {Their enemies will kill many of them} with swords. [Others will be captured] and taken {They will capture [others] and take them} to [HYP] [other] countries. Non-Jewish people will trample over Jerusalem until the time [that God has determined for them to rule the city] is ended.”
25 Hatnavah kanî, thapa hoi âsinaw dawkvah mitnoutnae kamnuek han. Talai van dawkvah tuicapa a thaw vaiteh taminaw pueng lungpuen lahoi ao awh han.
“There will also be strange things that will [happen to] the sun, the moon, and the stars. In [many] nations, [people] will be very frightened, and they will be anxious [when they hear] the ocean roaring and [see huge] waves.
26 Talai van abuemlah dawkvah ka phat hane hno pouk navah taminaw teh takinae hoi a pâyaw han, bangkongtetpawiteh kalvannaw e bahunaw teh a kâhuet han.
People will faint because they will be afraid as they wait for what will happen. [They will be afraid] because the powerful [objects] in the sky will be shaken {shake}.
27 Hatnavah tami Capa ni ka talue poung e bawilennae hoi tâmai kâcui vaiteh a tho e hah na hmu awh han.
Then they will see [me], the one who came from heaven, coming in a cloud powerfully and very gloriously.
28 Hote hnonaw pueng teh a kamtawng navah kangdout nateh kahlun lah khenhaw! Bangkongtetpawiteh na ratang nahane tueng teh a hnai toe, telah atipouh.
So when these things that [I have just now described] begin to happen, stand up [straight and] be brave, because it will be close to the time when [God] will free you [from all suffering].”
29 Hahoi, Jisuh ni bangnuenae lawk a dei teh, thaibunglung hoi alouke thingkungnaw hah khen awh
[Then] Jesus told his disciples this parable: “Think about the fig tree, and all the [other] trees.
30 Thaibunglung kung teh a dawn a cawn, a hna a naw toteh, kawmpoi tue a hnai toe tie na panue awh.
As soon as you see their leaves beginning to sprout, you know that summer is near.
31 Hot patetlah hote hnonaw a tâco toe tie na hmu awh toteh, Cathut uknaeram teh a pha han a hnai toe tie panuek awh.
Similarly, when you see these things that [I have just described] happening, you will know that it is almost time for God to [truly] rule as king.
32 Atangcalah na dei pouh awh. Atu e taminaw be a due awh hoehnahlan, hete hno pueng teh ka tâcawt han.
Keep this in mind: All the things that [I have just now described] will happen before all the people who have observed the things that I have done have died.
33 Kalvan hoi talai ka rawk nakunghai, ka lawk teh a kangning han.
[You can be certain that these things] that I have told [you] about will happen. That they will happen is more [certain] than that the earth and sky will continue to exist.”
34 Nangmouh ni kâhruetcuet awh. Caneinawmnae, yamuhrinae, talai hnopai dawk lungpuen tâsue hoi o navah, hote hnin teh pouk laipalah na kâhmo awh han.
“But be on guard. Do not be getting drunk with carousing or let yourselves be distracted by worries [concerning] your lives [SYN] {or let worries [concerning] your lives [SYN] distract you}. [If you do wrong things like those, you may be suddenly surprised by my return] [MTY], like a trap [suddenly catches an animal in it].
35 Hote hnin teh tamlawk patetlah talai van kaawm e taminaw pueng koung a ramuk han.
[You need to know that my return will surprise] everyone all over the earth.
36 Hatdawkvah nangmanaw ni ka tho hane hno dawk hoi na hlout vaiteh tami Capa koe pha hane kamcu e tami lah na o tie panue thai nahanelah ratoum hoi ring awh, telah atipouh.
So be ready at all times. Pray that you will be able to endure without being afraid of all these [difficult] things that will happen, so that you will then stand [confidently] before me, the one who came from heaven.”
37 Hottelah Jisuh ni hnintangkuem bawkim dawk a cangkhai teh tangmin lah a pha toteh Olive mon dawkvah tangmin a loum sak.
Each day [during that week Jesus] taught the people in the Temple [courtyard in Jerusalem]. But at night he [and his disciples] left [the city] and stayed on Olive [Tree] Hill.
38 Taminaw pueng ni a lawk thai hanelah bawkim dawkvah amom a cei awh.
Early [each] morning many people came to the Temple [courtyard] to listen to him.
