Luke 18
1 He also spoke a parable to them that they must always pray, and not give up,
Tua zawkciang Jesu in a nungzui te tung ah thinkiam ngawl a, a thunget tawntung natu a hilna in thusontena te son hi;
2 saying, "There was a judge in a certain city who did not fear God, and did not respect people.
Khuapi khat sung ah Pathian a lau ngawl, kuama zong a khual ngawl, thukhenpa khat om hi:
3 A widow was in that city, and she often came to him, saying, 'Give me justice against my adversary.'
Tua khuapi sung ah meingong khat om hi; thukhen pa kung ah pai a, ka ngal pa phu hong lamsak tan, ci hi.
4 He would not for a while, but afterward he said to himself, 'Though I neither fear God, nor respect people,
Thukhenpa in hun saupi sung thukhensak ngawl in om hi: ahihang a khakbel ciang ama in, keima sia Pathian kita ngawl in mihing zong kuama khual tuan ngawl ka hi hang;
5 yet because this widow bothers me, I will give her justice, or else she will wear me out by her continual coming.'"
Hi meingong nu in hong nawngkaisak ahikom, phu lamsak tu khi hi, tabang hibale hongpai tawntung tu a, hong nawngkaisak tawntung tu hi, ci ngaisun hi.
6 The Lord said, "Listen to what the unrighteous judge says.
Topa in, A man ngawl thukhenpa son na ngai vun.
7 Won't God avenge his chosen ones, who are crying out to him day and night, and yet he exercises patience with them?
Ama sia haisang napi, Pathian in a tealsa te, sun le zan in Ama kung ah a au te phu lamsak ngawl in om tu ziam?
8 I tell you that he will avenge them quickly. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?"
Keima in kong ci hi, a manlangtak in phulamsak tu hi. Ahihang mihing Tapa hongpai ciang in, hi leitung ah upna a mu tu ziam? ci hi.
9 He spoke also this parable to certain people who were convinced of their own righteousness, and who despised all others.
Jesus in, mipha khi hi, ci amate le amate ki muang mama a, ngualdang a thusimngawl te kung ah hi sontena son hi:
10 "Two men went up into the temple to pray; one was a Pharisee, and the other was a tax collector.
Mihing ni thungen tu in biakinn ah pai uh hi; khat sia Pharisee hi a, a dang khat sia siadong a hihi.
11 The Pharisee stood and prayed to himself like this: 'God, I thank you, that I am not like other people, extortioners, unrighteous, adulterers, or even like this tax collector.
Pharisee pa hong ding to a, Pathian awng, keima sia phalak te, thuman ngawl te, palngul mawna vawt te, a hibale siadong pa bang ka hi ngawl man in ka lungdam hi.
12 I fast twice a week. I give tithes of all that I get.'
Nipi khat sung ni vei antang khi hi, ka neisa theampo sung pan se sawm sua se khat pia khi hi, ci in thungen hi.
13 But the tax collector, standing far away, would not even lift up his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me, a sinner.'
Taciang siadongpa sia, a khuala na ah ding a, van lam zong en ngam ngawl in, a awm tum in, maw Pathian awng kei mawneipa tung ah hesuakna hong nei po tan, ci hi.
14 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."
Keima in kong ci hi, hisia pa sia a dang khat sia sang in thutang suana nga zaw a, a inn ah cia hi: banghangziam cile ama le ama a ki lamsang peuma khiaksuk na thuak tu a, ama le ama a ki niamkhiak peuma ki lamsang tu hi.
15 Now they were also bringing their babies to him, that he might touch them. But when the disciples saw it, they rebuked them.
Amate in patang te a thamsak tu a dei uh hu in, Jesus kung ah paipui uh hi: tua thu a nungzui te in a mu uh ciang in amate tei uh hi.
16 Jesus summoned them, saying, "Allow the little children to come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
Ahihang Jesus in, patang te ama kung ah sam a, Patangte ka kung ah hongpai tahen, khak heak vun: banghangziam cile Pathian kumpingam sia hibang te atu a hihi.
17 Truly, I tell you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a little child, he will in no way enter into it."
A man tatak kong ci ciang, a kuamapo in Pathian kumpingam sia patangno te bang in a sang thei ngawl peuma tua kumpingam sung ah tum thei ngawl tu uh hi, ci hi.
18 A certain ruler asked him, saying, "Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit everlasting life?" (aiōnios g166)
Lampui khat in Jesus kung ah, Sya pha awng, tawntung nuntakna ka nga thei natu in bang vawt tu khi ziam? ci in dong hi. (aiōnios g166)
19 Jesus asked him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good, except one—God.
Jesus in, Banghang in pha hong ci ni ziam? Pathian khatbek simngawl mipha dang kuama om ngawl hi.
20 You know the commandments: 'Do not commit adultery,' 'Do not murder,' 'Do not steal,' 'Do not give false testimony,' 'Honor your father and your mother.'"
Thupiakte na he hi, palngul mawna vawt heak in, tualthat heak in, nguta heak in, a man ngawl tetti son heak in, na pa le na nu zakta in, ci hi.
21 And he said, "I have kept all these things from my youth up."
Tua tangval pa in, hite theampo sia ka nolai pan ma in ka zui sa hi zo hi, ci hi.
22 When Jesus heard it, he said to him, "You still lack one thing. Sell all that you have, and distribute it to the poor. You will have treasure in heaven. Come, follow me."
Hi thu te Jesus in a zak ciang in, a kung ah, Na khat na kisam lai hi: na neisa theampo zuak in a, mizawng te hawmsak in, tua hile vantung ngam ah nei le lam na nei tu hi: taciang hongpai tan a, hong zui tan, ci hi.
23 But when he heard these things, he became very sad, for he was very rich.
Hi thu a zak ciang in khuangai mama hi: banghangziam cile ama sia mihau mama a hihi.
24 And Jesus looked at him and said, "How hard it is for those who have riches to enter into the kingdom of God.
Jesus in a khuangai mama a mu ciang in, Mihau te Pathian kumpingam sung a tum tu bangza in haksa ziam!
25 For it is easier for a camel to enter in through a needle's eye, than for a rich person to enter into the kingdom of God."
Banghangziam cile mihau khat Pathian kumpingam sung a tum tu sang in, kala-uk khat phin bilvang sung a tum tu ol zaw hi, ci hi.
26 Those who heard it said, "Then who can be saved?"
Tua thu a zate in, kua peuma ngupna nga thei tu ziam? ci uh hi.
27 But he said, "The things which are impossible with man are possible with God."
Jesus in, Mihing te taw a piang thei ngawl te sia, Pathian taw piang thei siat hi, ci hi.
28 And Peter said, "Look, we have left our own things and followed you."
Tua zawkciang in Peter in, en in, ka neisa uh theampo nusia in hong zui khu hi, ci hi.
29 He said to them, "Truly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or wife, or brothers, or parents, or children, for the kingdom of God's sake,
Taciang Jesus in amate tung ah, A man tatak kong ci ciang, Pathian kumpingam atu in, a inn, a nu le a pa, a suapui, a zi, a hibale a tate a nusia peuma,
31 He took the twelve aside, and said to them, "Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things that are written through the prophets concerning the Son of Man will be completed.
Jesus in a nungzui sawmleni te ama kung ah sam a, amate tung ah, En vun, Jerusalem ah i pai hi, kamsang te in mihing Tapa thu a atkholsa thu theampo tangtung tu hi.
32 For he will be delivered up to the non-Jews, will be mocked, treated shamefully, and spit on.
Gentile te khutsung ah ap tu a, selno na zong thuak tu hi, vawtsiatna zong thuak tu a, cil zong phi tu uh hi:
33 They will scourge and kill him. On the third day, he will rise again."
Amate in vel tu a, that tu uh hi: taciang ni thum ni ciang tho kik tu hi, ci hi.
34 They understood none of these things. This saying was hidden from them, and they did not understand the things that were said.
Amate in hi thu khat zong a tel bua uh hi: hi a son te sia amate kung pan ki phualseal hi, tua ahikom Jesus i son thu te khat zong a tel bua uh hi.
35 It happened, as he came near Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the road, begging.
Jesus Jericho nai na hong thet ciang in, mittaw khat lamhui ah khutdaw ngen in to hi:
36 Hearing a crowd going by, he asked what this meant.
Mihonpi in a kantan tuh a zak ciang in, bang thu ziam, ci in dong hi.
37 They told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.
Amate in, Nazareth mi Jesus in hong kantan hi, ci uh hi.
38 He called out, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me."
Taciang ama in, Jesus, nang David Tapa awng, hong hesuak ka po in, ci au hi.
39 Those who led the way rebuked him, that he should be quiet; but he shouted all the more, "Son of David, have mercy on me."
A mai a pai te in a om khipkhep natu in tei hi: ahihang, nang David Tapa awng, hong hesuak ka po in, ci a nasia seseam in au hi.
40 Standing still, Jesus commanded him to be brought to him. When he had come near, he asked him,
Taciang Jesus ding a, a kung ah paipui tu in thupia hi: a nai ah hongpai ciang in,
41 "What do you want me to do?" He said, "Lord, that I may see again."
Bang vawtsak tu dei ni ziam? ci in dong hi. Ama in, topa awng, khua ka mu nuam hi, ci hi.
42 Jesus said to him, "Receive your sight. Your faith has healed you."
Taciang Jesus in a kung ah, Khua mu in: na upna in hong ngum zo hi, ci hi.
43 And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God. All the people, when they saw it, praised God.
Thakhat thu in khuamu a, Jesus zui in Pathian min pok hi: taciang a mu te theampo in Pathian minthang pok uh hi.
