< Luke 13 >

1 Now there were some present at the same time who told him about the Galileans, whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.
Cawh, ce nyn awh thlang vang law unawh, cekkhqi ing Galili qam thlang, Pilat ing thi, ami Khawsa bawknaak awh khqin himnaak awh a pa sak khqi awithang ce Jesu theen uhy.
2 And he answered and said to them, "Do you think that these Galileans were worse sinners than all the other Galileans, because they suffered these things?
Jesu ing, “Cawhkaw Kalili thlangkhqi ce ak chang Kalili thlang khqi anglakawh ami thawlh bet dawngawh ni cemyihna ami zawk hy, tinawh namik poek nawh nu?
3 I tell you, no, but unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way.
Ka nik kqawn peek khqi, cekkhqi ce am thawlh bet uhy! Cehlai nangmih awm am naming zut awhtaw, plawci lawt kawm uk ti.
4 Or those eighteen, on whom the tower in Siloam fell, and killed them; do you think that they were worse offenders than all the others who dwell in Jerusalem?
Am awhtaw, Siloam ip sang ang tluk awh thlang hlaihkqet a kyih qen ce, Jerusalem awhkaw thlang khqing lak awh ami thawlh bet dawngawh vani hy voei tinawh namik poek nawh nu?
5 I tell you, no, but, unless you repent, you will all perish in the same way."
Ka nik kqawn peek khqi, cekkhqi ce am thawlh bet uhy! Cehlai nangmih awm am naming zut awhtaw plawci lawt kawm uk ti,” tinak khqi hy.
6 He spoke this parable. "A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it, and found none.
Cekcoengawh vawhkaw nyhtahnaak awi ve kqawn pehy: “Thlang pynoet ing a misur dum khuiawh thai thing ce ling hy. Hypoet awhtaw thai ak thaih ce bit aham cet moe seinu, ak thaih pynoet ca awm am hu hy.
7 He said to the vine dresser, 'Look, these three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree, and found none. Cut it down. Why does it waste the soil?'
Cedawngawh misur dum ak qehkung a venawh cet nawh, ‘kup thum khuiawh thai qah bih aham law hawh hlai nyng ak thaih pynoet awm am hu nyng. Hlu mai hlah! Dek ak kang qung,’ tina hy.
8 He answered, 'Lord, leave it alone this year also, until I dig around it, and fertilize it.
Misur dum ak qehkung ing, “Bawipa, kum oet taw ta mai cang, a kengsamkhqi cawh pe nyng seitaw, dek ak leek ing vyih cang vang nyng.
9 And if it bears fruit next time, [fine]; but if not, you can cut it down.'"
Cawhkawng a kum voel awh a qah awhtaw nep bit kaw! Cehlai ama qah bai vik awhtaw hlu dam bit kawp ti,’ tina hy,” tinak khqi hy.
10 He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath day.
Sabbath nyn hypoet awh Jesu ing sinakawk pynoet ak khuiawh thlang cawngpyi hy,
11 And look, a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and she was bent over, and could in no way straighten herself up.
cawh kum hlaihkhqet ak khawn nu pynoet ce cawh awm hy. Am ting khun qapsat nawh am dyng na am dyi thai hy.
12 When Jesus saw her, he called her, and said to her, "Woman, you are freed from your infirmity."
Jesu ing cawhkaw nu ce a huh awh, hai na khy nawh, “Nang nu, thawlhnaak awhkawng loet hawh hyk ti,” tina hy.
13 He laid his hands on her, and immediately she stood up straight, and glorified God.
Ak khan awh a kut tloeng pehy, cawh cawhkaw nu ce am dyng na dyi pahoei nawh Khawsa ce kyihcah hy.
14 The ruler of the synagogue, being indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, said to the crowd, "There are six days when work should be done Therefore come on those days and be healed, and not on the Sabbath day."
Sabbath nyn awh Jesu ing thlak tlo a qoei sak dawngawh, sinakawk ukkung ce kawso doena thlang kqeng a venawh, “Bibinaak aham khaw kquk nyn awm hy. Cawh law unawh taw nami tlawhnaakkhqi ce qoei sak uh, Sabbath nyn awhtaw koeh qoei sak uh,” tina hy.
15 Therefore the Lord answered him, "You hypocrites. Does not each one of you free his ox or his donkey from the stall on the Sabbath, and lead him away to water?
Bawipa ing cawhkaw sinakawk ukkung a venawh, “Nangmih thlak thaikhqi! Nangmih ing Sabbath nyn awh nami vaitaw mai aw, am awhtaw meqang mai aw a qui hlam pe unawh tui am nami awk sak nawh nu?
16 Ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan had bound, look, eighteen years, be freed from this bondage on the Sabbath day?"
Cawhtaw vawhkaw nu, Abraham a canu pynoet na ak awm, qaai ing khaw kum hqa hlaihkhqet khuiawh a pin ce Sabbath nyn awh amni hlam pe hly unawh nu? tinak khqi hy.
17 As he said these things, all his adversaries were disappointed, and all the crowd rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.
Ve ak awi ak kqawn awh, a qaalkhqi boeih taw chak uhy, cehlai anih a ik-oeih sainaak awh ce thlangkhqi taw zeel uhy.
18 Then he said, "What is the Kingdom of God like? And to what can I compare it?
Jesu ing vemyihna doet hy, “Khawsa qam ve ikaw ing nu a ning myih hy voei? Ikawng nu ka nyhtah lah voei?
19 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and put in his own garden. It grew, and became a tree, and the birds of the sky lodged in its branches."
Khawsa qam taw thlang ing antlam cii lo nawh dum khuiawh ak theh ing myih hy. Cawhkaw antlam cii ce cawt nawh a thing na dyi law hy, khan nakaw phakhqi law unawh a pang awh ce ngawi uhy,” tinak khqi hy.
20 And again he said, "To what can I compare the Kingdom of God?
Cekcoengawh vemyihna doet tlaih bai hy, “Ikawng nu Khawsa qam ve ka nyhtah lah voei?
21 It is like yeast, which a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, until it was all leavened."
Khawsa qam taw nu ing vaidam dawn khuih thum ak khuiawh hen a zamnaak boeih aham a phul ing myih hy,” tinak khqi hy.
22 He went on his way through cities and villages, teaching, and traveling on to Jerusalem.
Cekcoengawh Jesu ing Jerusalem na a ceh awh khawk bau ingkaw vangcakhqi awh ce thlang cawngpyi noe noe hy.
23 One said to him, "Lord, are they few who are saved?" He said to them,
Thlang pynoet ing “Bawipa, thlang a khoehca doeng ing nu thawngnaak a huh kaw?” tinawh doet hy.
24 "Strive to enter in by the narrow door, for many, I tell you, will seek to enter in, and will not be able.
Cekkhqi venawh, “Chawmkeng ak ceek khuiawh kun ngah ngah lah uh, kawtih thlang khawzah ing kun aham tha lo hly hlai uhy am kun thai kawm uh.
25 When once the master of the house has risen up, and has shut the door, and you begin to stand outside, and to knock at the door, saying, 'Lord, open to us.' then he will answer and tell you, 'I do not know you or where you come from.'
Imkung ing tho nawh chawh ce a khaih coengawh taw, a leng na dyi kawm utik saw chawh ce khoek kawm uk ti, ‘Bawipa chawh awng law lah,’ tina kawm uk ti. “Cehlai anih ing, ‘Amni sim khqi nyng, hana kawng nu nami law hy,’ ni tinak khqi kaw.
26 Then you will begin to say, 'We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.'
Cawh nangmih ing, “Nang ing buh a an ni aw ni ai haih saw kaw, lam awh awm ni cawngpyi tik saw kaw,” tina kawm uk ti.
27 But he will reply, 'I do not know where you come from. Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity.'
Cehlai anih ing, ‘Amni sim khqi nyng, hana kawng nu nami law hy. Nangmih thawlhnaak ak saikhqi, ak chang na cet uh!’ ni tinak khqi kaw.
28 There will be weeping and grinding of teeth, when you see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and all the prophets, in the Kingdom of God, and yourselves being thrown outside.
Abraham, Isaak, Jakob ingkaw tawnghakhqi boeih Khawsa qam khuiawh ami awm ce nami huh awh, nangmih taw a leng na kqangnaak ingkaw hatahnaak a hun awh awm kawm uk ti.
29 They will come from the east, west, north, and south, and will sit down in the Kingdom of God.
Khaw law khawtlak, a sip a hawt benna kawng thlangkhqi law kawm usaw, Khawsa qam khuiawh buh veelnaak kung awh ngawi kawm uh.
30 And look, there are some who are last who will be first, and there are some who are first who will be last."
Hu ak khyngkhqi ce ma kawm usaw, ak makhqi ce hu khyng lat kawm uh,” tinak khqi hy.
31 In that same hour some Pharisees came, saying to him, "Get out of here, and go away, for Herod wants to kill you."
Cawh Farasi thlang a vangkhqi ce Jesu a venna law unawh a venawh, “Ve a hun ve cehta nawh ak chang na cet hlah. Herod ing nang him aham ngaih hy,” tina uhy.
32 And he said to them, "Go and tell that fox, 'Look, I cast out demons and perform cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I complete my mission.
Jesu ing, “Cet unawh taw ak thai ngentang ce kqawn pe uh, “Tuhngawi awh awm khawngawi awh awm qaaikhqi hqek kawng nyng saw thlak tlokhqi qoei sak kawng, am thum nyn awh kang cainaak ce coeng kawg nyng’ tihy tina uh.
33 Nevertheless I must go on my way today and tomorrow and the next day, for it cannot be that a prophet perish outside of Jerusalem.'
Kawmih awh awm, tuhngawi, khawngawi ingkaw tiktuh dy ka ceh qoe qoe aham awm hy, tawngha ikawmyih awm Jerusalem khawceng awh am thi thai hy!
34 "Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that kills the prophets, and stones those who are sent to her. How often I wanted to gather your children together, like a hen gathers her own brood under her wings, and you refused.
Aw Jerusalem, Jerusalem, tawnghakhqi ak himkung ingkaw na venawh a tyih lawkhqi lung ing ak khawngkung, ai nu ing a cakhqi ang hlak khui awh ang koep sih amyihna, na cakhqi izah nu hqui sawi aham, ka ngaih ce, nang ingtaw am ngaih hyk ti!
35 Look, your house is abandoned to you. And I tell you, you will not see me until you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'"
Toek lah, na im ve a sit qak nani ami cehtaak hyt hawh hy. Ka nik kqawn peek, ‘Bawipa ming ing ak law taw a zoseen hy,’ tinawh nak kqawn hlan dy taw kai ve amni hu qoe voel kawp ti,” tina hy.
