Luke 19
1 And he entered, and passed through Jericho.
Jerikho te a kun thil tih a hil.
2 And, behold, there was a man called Zacchæus, who was a chief publican; and he was rich.
Te vaengah hlang pakhat, a ming ah Zakkhaeus la a khue te lawt om. Anih tah mangmu boei neh kuirhang la om.
3 And he sought to see Jesus, who he was, and was not able on account of the multitude, because he was of small stature.
Anih long khaw Jesuh te hmuh hamla a toem. Tedae a pumrho he merheh la a om dongah hlangping te aep thai pawh.
4 And he ran before, and climbed up a sycamore-tree, that he might see him, for he was about to pass that way.
Tedae a khum ham te a om coeng dongah a hmai la a khal tih amah hmuh ham thaibah dongla yoeng.
5 And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up and saw him, and said to him: Zacchæus, make haste and come down, for I must spend this day at your house.
Tekah hmuen la a pha vaengah Jesuh tah oeloe tih anih te, “Zakkhaeus, a loe la rhum, tihnin ah nang im ah ka naeh ham a kuek,” a ti nah.
6 And he made haste and came down, and received him joyfully.
Te dongah suntla tok tih Jesuh a doe te omngaih coeng.
7 And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying: He has gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner.
Boeih a hmuh uh vaengah cai uh tih, “Hlang tholh taengah pah hamla kun,” a ti uh.
8 And Zacchæus stood, and said to the Lord: Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken from any one by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.
A pai neh Zakkhaeus loh Boeipa taengah, “Boeipa, Ka khuehtawn he rhakthuem he khodaeng rhoek ka paek. Hlang khat khat kah hno khat khat ni ka rhawt pah bal atah rhaepli la ka thuung coeng he,” a ti nah.
9 And Jesus said to him: To-day has salvation come to this house, since he also is a son of Abraham.
Te dongah anih te Jesuh loh, “Anih tah Abraham capa la a om van dongah tihnin ah tah khangnah loh he imkhui la pai coeng.
10 For the Son of man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.
Hlang Capa ha pawk he aka poci te toem ham neh khang ham rhoe pai ni,” a ti.
11 And as they heard these things, he also spoke a parable, because he was near Jerusalem, and they thought that the kingdom of God would immediately appear.
Jerusalem a pha tom vaengah a yaak neh Pathen kah ram a tueng hamla cai tomlael coeng tila a poek dongah nuettahnah pakhat te a thap tih a thui.
12 He said, therefore: A certain nobleman went into a distant country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
Te dongah, “Tongpa hlangtang pakhat tah, a ram loh ham kho hla la cet tih ha voei hamla cai.
13 And he called his ten servants, and gave them ten pounds, and said to them, Engage in trade till I come.
Te dongah a sal hlangrha te a khue tih mina lungrha te amih taengah a paek. Te phoeiah amih te, ' Amah ka pawk hil thimpom uh,’ a ti nah.
14 But his citizens hated him, and sent an embassy after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us.
Tedae a pilnam rhoek loh anih te a hmuhuetuh. Te dongah amah hnukah laipai tloep a tueih uh tih, ' Kaimih soah a manghai ham he ka ngaih uh moenih,’ a ti na uh.
15 And it came to pass, that, when he had returned, having received the kingdom, he commanded those servants to be called, to whom he had given the money, that he might know what each had gained by trading.
Ram te a loh tih amah ha mael vaengah tah tangka a paek a sal rhoek te amah taengla a khue tih metla a thimpom uh khaw ming hamla a dawt.
16 And the first came and said: Lord, your pound has gained ten pounds.
Te vaengah aka pawk lamhma loh, ' Boeipa, nang kahmina pakhat te mina parha ka kum thil,’ a ti nah.
17 And he said to him: Well done, good servant; because you have been faithful in a very little, have authority over ten cities.
Te vaengah anih te, ' Then, sal then a yit dongah uepom la na om tih, kho parha soah saithainah aka khueh la om laeh,’ a ti nah.
18 And the second came and said: Lord, your pound has gained five pounds.
Aka pawk pabae long khaw, ' Nang kah, mina loh mina panga a sak boeipa,’ a ti nah.
19 And he said to him also: And be you over five cities.
Anih khaw, ' Nang loh kho panga om thil van,’ a ti nah.
20 And another came and said: Lord, behold your pound, which I have kept laid away in a napkin.
Te phoeiah pakhat loh ha pawk tih, ' Boeipa, nang kah mina tah himbaica khuiah ka khueh tih ka tung he.
21 For I was afraid of you, because you are a hard man; you take up that which you did not lay down, and reap that which you did not sow.
Dikkhih dikkhaeh hlang la na om dongah namah khaw kang rhih. Na khueh pawt te na phueih tih na tuh pawt te na ah,’ a ti nah.
22 Then he said to him: Out of your own mouth will I judge you, you wicked servant. You knew that I was a hard man, taking up what I did not lay down, and reaping what I did not sow.
Anih te tah, ' Na ka lamkah vanbangla nang taengah ol ka tloek ni, sal thae aw, kai he dikkhih dikkhaeh hlang la ka om te na ming coeng. Ka khueh pawt te ka poh tih ka tuh pawt te ka ah het a?
23 And why then did you not put my money into the bank, that, when I came, I could have collected it with interest?
Te vaengah balae tih ka tangka te caboei dongla na tloeng pawh. Kai ka pawk vaengah a casai neh ka dang kolo mako,” a ti nah.
24 And he said to those who stood by: Take from him the pound, and give it to him that has ten pounds.
Te phoeiah aka pai rhoek te, ' Anih taengkah mina te lo uh lamtah mina lungrha aka khueh te pae uh,’ a ti nah.
25 And they said to him: Lord, he has ten pounds.
Te vaengah anih te, ' Boeipa, mina parha a khueh ta,’ a ti na uh.
26 For I say to you, To every one that has, it shall be given; but from him that has not, even that which he has shall be taken away.
Nangmih taengah ka thui, Aka khueh boeih te a paek thil vetih, aka khueh pawt tah a khueh te khaw a loh pahni.
27 But those who are my enemies, who were not willing that I should rule over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.
Tedae amih soah kai manghai sak ham ngaih pawh ka rhal rhoek te pahoi hang khuen uh lamtah ka hmaiah ngawn uh,’ a ti nah,” te a thui pah.
28 And when he had said these things, he went before, going up to Jerusalem.
Te te a thui phoeiah a hmai la cet tih Jerusalem la luei.
29 And it came to pass, that, when he came near to Bethphage and Bethany, to the mount called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
Olives tlang a ti uh taengkah Bethphage neh Bethany te vat a pha vaengah hnukbang panit te a tueih tih,
30 saying: Go into the opposite village, in which, when you enter, you will find a colt tied, on which no man ever sat. Loose him, and bring him.
“Rhaldan kah kho la cet rhoi, a khuila na kun rhoi vaengah laakca a pael te na hmuh rhoi ni. Te soah hlang ngol noek pawt dae hlam lamtah hang khuen rhoi.
31 And if any one ask you why you loose him, thus shall you say to him: The Lord has need of him.
khat loh nangmih rhoi te, ' Ba ham lae na hlam?' tila n' dawt atah, ' Boeipa loh a ngoe, ' ti nah,” a ti nah.
32 And those who were sent, went, and found as he had said to them.
Te dongah a tueih rhoi loh a caeh rhoi vaengah a ti nah bangla a hmuh rhoi.
33 And as they were loosing the colt, the owners of him said to them: Why do you loose the colt?
laak ca te a hlam rhoi vaengah a boei loh amih rhoi te, “Balae tih laak ca te na hlam rhoi,” a ti nah.
34 They replied: The Lord has need of him.
Te rhoi long khaw, “Boeipa loh a ngoe,” a ti nah.
35 And they brought him to Jesus, and threw their mantles upon the colt, and set Jesus on him.
Te te Jesuh taengla a khuen rhoi. Te phoeiah laak ca te a himbai neh a khuk uh tih Jesuh te a soah a ngol sakuh.
36 And as he was going on, they spread their mantles in the road.
A caeh vaengah a himbai te long ah a phaih uh.
37 And when he was now near the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and to praise God, with a loud voice, for all the mighty deeds which they had seen,
Olives tlang kah singling te a pha tom vaengah a thaomnah te hnukbang rhaengpuei loh pahoi boeih a hmuh uh. Te boeih nen te omngaih uh tih Pathen te ol neh rhuprhup a thangthen uh.
38 saying: Blessed is the king that comes in the name of the Lord; peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.
“Boeipa ming neh aka pawk manghai tah a yoethen, vaan ah ngaimongnah, thangpomnah tah a sangkoek ah om saeh,” a ti uh.
39 And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude, said to him: Teacher, rebuke your disciples.
Te dongah hlangping lamkah Pharisee hlangvang loh amah te, “Saya, na hnukbang rhoek te toel lah,” a ti nah.
40 And he answered, and said to them: I say to you, that if these had been silent, the stones would have cried out.
Tedae a doo tih, “Nangmih taengah ka thui, amih paa uh koinih lungto rhoek loh pang uh ni,” a ti nah.
41 And when he came near, he looked upon the city, and wept over it,
Khopuei te a tueng tom vaengah a rhah thil.
42 saying: Hadst thou known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which were for thy peace! But now, they are hid from thy eyes.
“Tahae kah ngaimongnah he nang long khaw tihnin ah na ming koinih, tedae na mikhmuh lamloh a thuh coeng.
43 For the days will come upon thee, when thy enemies will throw up a mound about thee, and inclose thee around, and keep thee in on every side,
Khohnin loh nang taengla ha pawk vetih na rhal rhoek loh nang te vaam n'too thil ni. Te vaengah nang te n'dum vetih voeivang ah nang te ng' et ni.
44 and will destroy thee and thy children within thee, and will not leave in thee one stone upon another, because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
Te phoeiah namah neh na khuikah na ca rhoek te a hnaa uh ni. Namamih kah hiphoelnah tue te na ming pawt yueng, na khuikah lungto sokah lungto pakhat pataeng hmaai uh mahpawh,” a ti nah.
45 And he went into the temple, and began to drive out those who were selling in it, and those who were buying,
Bawkim la a kun neh hno aka yoi rhoek te a vai.
46 and said to them: It is written, My house is a house of prayer; but you have made it a den of robbers.
Amih te, “' Ka im tah thangthuinah im la om ni, 'tila a daek coeng dae nangmih loh dingca rhoek kah khuirhung la na saii uh,” a ti nah.
47 And he was teaching daily in the temple. But the chief priests, and the scribes, and the chief of the people sought to destroy him,
Te phoeiah hnin takuem bawkim khuiah om tih a thuituen. Tedae khosoihham rhoek, cadaek rhoek neh pilnam kah a congkhang long tah anih te poci sak ham a mae uh.
48 and found nothing that they could do, for all the people hung on his words.
Tedae pilnam loh Jesuh te a hmaitoh tih boeih a hnatun dongah metla a saii uh ham khaw ming uh pawh.
