Luk 7
1 Jisuh ni taminaw koe cangkhainae a pâbaw hnukkhu, Kapernuam kho thung a kâen.
When Jesus had brought to a conclusion all that he had then had to say to the people, he entered Capernaum.
2 Hote kho dawk ransabawi e a san a pataw teh due hane coungkacoe lah ao.
A centurion in the Roman army had a slave whom he valued, and who was seriously ill – almost at the point of death.
3 Hote tami teh a bawipa ni a pahren poung. Jisuh e a kamthang a thai navah, Judahnaw dawk e kacuenaw hah a sanpa dam sak hanelah Jisuh koe a patoun.
And, hearing about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders to him, with the request that he would come and save his slave’s life.
4 Jisuh koe a pha awh navah, Bawipa ahni hanelah hete hno na kabawp hanelah atueng.
When they found Jesus, they earnestly implored him to do so. “He deserves the favor from you,” they said,
5 Bangkongtetpawiteh ahni ni kaimae miphun a pahren dawkvah sinakok na sak pouh toe telah pahrennae puenghoi a kâhei.
“For he is devoted to our nation, and himself built our synagogue for us.”
6 Jisuh teh ahnimouh hoi cungtalah a cei. Ransabawi e im koe a pha tawmlei navah, ransabawi ni a huikonaw a patoun teh, Bawipa namahoima patangnae sak han loe. Kaie imthungkhu nang na kâen hane kamcu hoeh.
So Jesus went with them. But, when he was no great distance from the house, the centurion sent some friends with the message – “Do not trouble yourself, Sir; for I am unworthy to receive you under my roof.
7 Hot patetlah nang koe ka tho hanelah ka kamcu hoeh. Lawk kam touh mah na dei pawiteh ka san teh a dam han doeh.
That was why I did not even venture to come to you myself; but speak, and let my manservant be cured.
8 Bangnuenae lah, kai teh kâtawnnae rahim thaw ka tawk e tami buet touh lah ka o eiteh, ka kut rahim e ransanaw buet touh cet ka tetpawiteh a cei han. Tho ka tetpawiteh a tho han. San haiyah hete thaw tawk ti boum teh a tawk telah ransabawi ni atipouh.
For I myself am a man under the orders of others, with soldiers under me; and if I say to one of them ‘Go,’ he goes, and to another ‘Come,’ he comes, and to my slave ‘Do this,’ he does it.”
9 Hote lawk Jisuh ni a thai navah a kângairu teh, a hnukkâbangnaw koe a kamlang teh, nangmouh koe na dei pouh awh. Het patetlah yuemnae ka tawn e Isarelnaw dawk pateng hai kahmawt boihoeh rah atipouh.
Jesus was surprised to hear these words from him; and, turning to the crowd which was following him, he said, “I tell you, nowhere in Israel have I met with such faith as this!”
10 Ransabawi ni a patoun e naw im bout a pha navah, ka dam e a sanpa teh a hmu awh.
And, when the messengers returned to the house, they found the slave recovered.
11 A tangtho hnin vah, Nain kho dawk a cei teh a hnukkâbangnaw hoi tamihupui teh a hnuk a kâbang awh.
Shortly after, Jesus went to a town called Nain, his disciples and a great crowd going with him.
12 Kho thung e longkha koe a pha navah, lahmainu ni a capa buet touh dueng a tawn e kadout e ro pakawp hanelah kho alawilah a tâcokhai navah kho thung e taminaw hai a kâbang awh.
Just as he approached the gate of the town, there was a dead man being carried out for burial – an only son, and his mother was a widow. A large number of the people of the town were with her.
13 Bawipa ni hote napui a hmu navah a pahren teh, kap hanh telah atipouh.
When he saw her, the Master was moved with compassion for her, and he said to her, “Do not weep.”
14 Hathnukkhu, Jisuh ni a hnai teh, ro hrawmnae ratang a tek teh ka hrawm e taminaw a kâhat awh. Bawipa ni nange thoundoun thaw leih, kai ni kâ na poe telah atipouh.
Then he went up and touched the bier, and the bearers stopped; and Jesus said, “Young man, I am speaking to you – Rise!”
15 Ka dout e tami teh a tahung teh lawk a tho. Jisuh ni hote tami hah a manu koevah a poe.
The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus restored him to his mother.
16 Taminaw pueng ni a taki awh teh, profet kalenpounge maimouh koe a tho toe. Cathut teh amae a miphunnaw a khetyawt hanelah a tho toe, ati awh teh Cathut a pholen awh.
Everyone was awe-struck and began praising God. “A great prophet has arisen among us,” they said. “God has visited his people.”
17 Hote kamthang teh Judah ram koehoi a tengpam pueng koe koung a kâkahei.
And this story about Jesus spread all through Judea, and in the neighboring countries as well.
18 Jawhan e a hnukkâbangnaw ni hote a konglam abuemlahoi Jawhan koe a dei pouh awh.
All these events were reported to John by his disciples.
19 Hatnavah Jawhan ni a hnukkâbang e tami kahni touh a kaw teh Jisuh koe a patoun teh, Bawipa, nang teh ka tho hane hah toung na maw. Hoehpawiteh alouke ka ngaihawi awh han rah maw telah a pacei sak.
So he summoned two of them, and sent them to the Master to ask – “Are you ‘the coming one,’ or are we to look for someone else?”
20 Ahnimouh roi teh Jisuh koe a pha navah, Bawipa, nang teh ka tho hane hah toung na maw, nahoeh pawiteh alouke ka ngaihawi awh han rah maw telah Baptisma Jawhan ni na pacei sak atipouh awh.
When these men found Jesus, they said, “John the Baptist has sent us to you to ask – Are you ‘the coming one,’ or are we to look for somebody else?”
21 Hatnae atueng dawkvah, Jisuh teh tami kapatawnaw a dam sak, muitha kathoutnaw a pâlei, mitdawnnaw hah mit a ang sak.
At that very time Jesus had cured many people of diseases, afflictions, and wicked spirits, and had given many blind people their sight.
22 Jisuh ni Jawhan e laiceinaw koe, nangmouh ni na hmu e, na thai e naw pueng Jawhan koe bout dei pouh awh. Khok kamkhuennaw ni lam a cei thai awh, hrikbeinaw ni thoungnae dawk a pha awh. Kadoutnaw ni a thaw awh.
So his answer to the question was, “Go and report to John what you have witnessed and heard – the blind recover their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are made clean, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised to life, the good news is told to the poor.
23 Karoedengnaw ni hai lunghawinae kamthang a thai awh. Kai dawk lung ka pout hoeh e tami teh a yawkahawi e lah ao atipouh.
And blessed is the person who finds no hindrance in me.”
24 Jawhan ni patounenaw a cei hnukkhu vah, Jisuh ni Jawhan hoi kâkuen lah taminaw koe a dei pouh e teh bangpatetlae hno hmu han na ngai dawk maw, kahrawngum na cei awh. Kahlî ni a kahuet e lumpum khet hanelah maw na cei awh.
When John’s messengers had left, Jesus, speaking to the crowds, began to say with reference to John,
25 Na hoehpawiteh kanem ca e angki ka kho e khet hanelah maw na cei awh. Angki kahawi ka kho ni teh rawca kahawi ka cat e taminaw teh siangpahrang e toeim dawk doeh ouk ao.
“What did you go out into the wilderness to look at? A reed waving in the wind? If not, what did you go out to see? A man dressed in rich clothing? Why, those who are accustomed to fine clothes and luxury live in royal palaces.
26 Profet khet hanelah maw na cei awh han. Profet hlak kalen e tami lahai ka o telah kai ni ka dei.
What then did you go to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and far more than a prophet.
27 Cakathoung dawk a thut e teh, khenhaw! nang na cei nahane lamthung ka rasoun hanelah patoune teh na hmalah ka patoun toe telah ka dei nah hote tami doeh ka dei ngai.
This is the man of whom scripture says – ‘I am sending my messenger ahead of you, and he will prepare your way before you.’
28 Kai ni na dei pouh e teh, napui ni a khe e thung dawk, baptisma Jawhan hlak kalen e profet buet touh boehai awmhoeh. Hateiteh Cathut uknaeram dawk teh kathoengpounge tami hah, ahni hlak a talue.
There is, I tell you, no one born of a woman who is greater than John; and yet the least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.”
29 Tamuk kacawngnaw hoi taminaw pueng ni Jawhan e lawk a thai navah Cathut a pholen awh teh Jawhan koe baptisma a coe awh.
(All the people, when they heard this, and even the tax collectors, having accepted John’s baptism, acknowledged the justice of God.
30 Farasinaw hoi cakathutkungnaw teh Jawhan ni a poe e baptisma a coe ngai awh hoeh dawkvah, ahnimouh hanelah Cathut ni a pouk pouh e hah a pahnawt awh.
But the Pharisees and the students of the Law, having rejected John’s baptism, frustrated God’s purpose in regard to them.)
31 Hatdawkvah hete taminaw bang hoi maw ka bangnue han, api hoi maw a kâvan awh.
“To what then,” Jesus continued, “should I compare the people of the present generation? What are they like?
32 Ahnimanaw teh pawi koe a tahung awh teh ahnimouh hanlah tapueng longpan ka khawng pouh nakunghai lam awh hoeh. Lungmathoenae la sak pouh nakunghai kap awh hoeh. Hatdawkvah hetnaw teh camonaw hoi doeh a kâvan awh.
They are like some little children who are sitting in the marketplace and calling out to one another – ‘We have played the flute for you, but you have not danced; We have wailed, but you have not wept!’
33 Bangkongtetpawiteh, baptisma Jawhan ni vaiyei hoi misurtui catnet laipalah ao navah nangmouh ni, hete tami teh kahrai a thung kâen e doeh na ti pouh awh.
For now that John the Baptist has come, not eating bread or drinking wine, you are saying ‘He has a demon in him’;
34 Tami Capa teh a ca a nei hoi ao navah, hete tami teh, ka carawng e tami doeh. Tamuk kacawngnaw, tami kahawihoehnaw hoi kâhuiko e doeh bout na ti pouh awh.
and now that the Son of Man has come, eating and drinking, you are saying ‘Here is a glutton and a wine-drinker, a friend of tax collectors and outcasts.’
35 Hatei lungangnae dawk teh amamae a canaw pueng koe pathoenae dawk hoi a hlout telah atipouh.
And yet wisdom is vindicated by all her children.”
36 Farasi buet touh ni bu ca hanelah Jisuh a kaw teh, hote Farasi e im dawk a kâen teh caboi dawk a tahung.
One of the Pharisees asked Jesus to dine with him, so Jesus went to his house and took his place at the table.
37 Hatnavah hote kho dawk kaawm e napui kahawihoeh e buet touh ni a panue, talungpangaw bom dawk e hmuitui buet touh a sin teh,
Just then a woman, who was an outcast in the town, having heard that Jesus was eating in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster jar of perfume,
38 Jisuh e hnukkhu lah a khok koe a kangdue, a ka teh mitphi hoi a khok a duk sak teh a sam hoi a hui. A khok hai a paco teh hmuitui a hluk.
and placed herself behind Jesus, near his feet, weeping. Then she began to make his feet wet with her tears, and she dried them with the hair of her head, repeatedly kissing his feet and anointing them with the perfume.
39 Bawipa ka kaw e Farasi ni a hmu navah, hete tami hah profet katang pawiteh, a khok ka tek e napui bangpatet e tami maw ti a panue han. Hete napui teh napui kahawihoehe doeh telah a lung thung hoi ati awh.
When the Pharisee who had invited Jesus saw this, he said to himself, “Had this man been ‘the prophet,’ he would have known who, and what sort of woman, this is who is touching him, and that she is an outcast.”
40 Hatnavah, Jisuh ni Simon nang koe ka dei hane lawk buet touh ao atipouh navah, Bawipa dei haw telah bout atipouh.
But, addressing him, Jesus said, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” “Pray do so, teacher,” Simon answered; and Jesus began,
41 Jisuh ni hai hno katawnkung koe laiba ka tawn e tami kahni touh ao. Buet touh ni phoisa cumtouh, alouke buet touh ni 50 touh a ba roi.
“There were two people who were in debt to a moneylender; one owed five hundred silver coins, and the other fifty.
42 Ahnimouh roi ni laiba patho thai hoeh dawkvah, hno katawnkung ni a ngaithoum roi. Hat pawiteh, apipatet e ni maw hno katawnkung hah hoe lungpataw han telah a pacei.
As they were unable to pay, he forgave them both. Which of them, do you think, will love him the more?”
43 Simon nihai, laiba kapap ngaithoum lah kaawm e tami ni hoe a lungpataw han telah, ka pouk atipouh navah Bawipa ni, na pouk e teh a tang doeh atipouh.
“I suppose,” answered Simon, “it will be the man to whom he forgave the greater debt.” “You are right,” said Jesus,
44 Hote napui koe lah a kangvawi teh Simon koe hete napui na hmu maw. Na im dawk ka kâen navah khok pâsu nahane tui na poe hoeh. Hete napui ni teh ka khok dawk mitphi a duk sak teh a sam hoi a hui.
and then, turning to the woman, he said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I came into your house – you gave me no water for my feet, but she has made my feet wet with her tears and dried them with her hair.
45 Nang ni kai na paco hoeh, hatei hete napui ni teh im dawk kâen tahma hoi kâhat laipalah ka khok a paco.
You did not give me one kiss, but she, from the moment I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.
46 Nang ni ka lû dawk satui na hluk pouh hoeh. Hatei, hete napui ni teh ka khok dawk hmuitui hoi na hluk pouh toe.
You did not anoint even my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with perfume.
47 Hatdawkvah kai ni ka dei e teh, yon moikapap dawk hoi a hlout dawkvah, lungpatawnae moi a kamnue sak. Yon kayounca dueng ngaithoum lah kaawm e ni teh lungpatawnae younca dueng a kamnue sak.
So I tell you, her great love shows that her sins, many as they are, have been pardoned. One who is pardoned little loves little.”
48 Hote napui hanelah, nang teh na yonnae dawk hoi na hlout toe atipouh.
Then he said to the woman, “Your sins have been pardoned.”
49 Caboi dawk ka tahung e naw ni yon ka ngaithoum e tami heh bang patet e tami maw ati awh teh a kâpankhai awh.
The other guests began to say to one another, “Who is this man who even pardons sins?”
50 Jisuh ni hote napui hanelah, na yuemnae ni na rungngang toe. Lungmawngcalah cet leih atipouh.
But Jesus said to the woman, “Your faith has delivered you; go, and peace be with you.”
