Luke 14
1 And it happened, when he went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees on a Sabbath to eat bread, that they were watching him.
Jisuh teh sabbath hnin vah bu ca hanelah Farasi bawi buet touh im a kâen teh, hatnavah ahnimouh ni Bawipa teh a tuet awh.
2 And look, a certain man who had dropsy was in front of him.
A hmalah phing patawnae ka tawn e tami buet touh teh ao.
3 Jesus, answering, spoke to the Law scholars and Pharisees, saying, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath or not?"
Sabbath hnin patawnae dam sak han maw telah Farasinaw hoi cakathutkungnaw hah Jisuh ni a pacei navah,
4 But they were silent. He took him, and healed him, and let him go.
ahnimouh teh lawkkamuem ao awh. Jisuh ni hote tami a kaw teh patawnae dawk hoi hlout sak hnukkhu bout a tha.
5 He answered them, "Which of you, if your son or an ox fell into a well, would not immediately pull him out on a Sabbath day?"
Hathnukkhu ahnimanaw koe, sabbath hnin vah na capa hoehpawiteh na maito tangkom dawk bawt pawiteh rasat laipalah apimouh na kaawm awh han telah a pacei.
6 But they could make no reply to this.
Ahnimouh ni lawk kam touh boehai pathung thai awh hoeh.
7 He spoke a parable to those who were invited, when he noticed how they chose the best seats, and said to them,
Hatnavah kaw e tami teh bari kaawm e tahungnae dawk a rawi awh e hah a hmu torei teh ahnimanaw han bangnuenae a dei pouh.
8 "When you are invited by anyone to a marriage feast, do not sit in the best seat, since perhaps someone more honorable than you might be invited by him,
Tami ni yuvâ kâpaluennae pawi koe nang na kaw navah bari kaawm e hmuen koe tahung hanh. Hottelah na tahung pawiteh nang hlak ka talue e tami pawi koe tho pawi teh,
9 and he who invited both of you would come and tell you, 'Make room for this person.' Then you would begin, with shame, to take the lowest place.
nangmouh ka kaw e tami ni hete tami hmuen poe leih telah a dei han. Hatnavah nang teh yeiraipo hoi ka rahnoum e hmuen koe na kum han.
10 But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes, he may tell you, 'Friend, move up higher.' Then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at the table with you.
Tami ni nang na kaw navah cet nateh ka rahnoum e hmuen dawk tahung. Hottelah na awm pawiteh nang ka kaw e tami a tho navah ka hui haw e hmuen koe luen telah ati han. Hatnavah nang hoi cungtalah ka tahung e taminaw hmalah nang teh bari e lah na o han.
11 For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted."
Amahoima kârasang e tami teh rahnoum sak lah ao vaiteh, amahoima kârahnoum e tami teh rasang sak lah ao han atipouh.
12 He also said to the one who had invited him, "When you make a dinner or a supper, do not call your friends, nor your brothers, nor your kinsmen, nor rich neighbors, or perhaps they might also return the favor, and pay you back.
Jisuh ni ama ka kaw e tami koe bout a dei pouh e teh nang ni amombu, tangminbu na paca navah huikonaw, hmaunawnghanaw, miphunnaw hoi ka tawnta e imtenglawpamnaw na kaw mahoeh. Hottelah na kaw pawiteh a hnuk khu torei nang bout na kaw awh vaiteh na patho awh han.
13 But when you make a feast, ask the poor, the maimed, the lame, or the blind;
Pawi na to navah ka mathoe e tami, kuepcing hoeh e tami, a khokkhem e tami hoi a mit ka dawn e taminaw hah kaw awh.
14 and you will be blessed, because they do not have the resources to repay you. For you will be repaid in the resurrection of the righteous."
Hottelah na kaw pawiteh yawhawinae ao han. A lamthung teh hote taminaw ni na patho thai hoeh e lah ao dawkvah tami kalannaw a thawnae tueng dawkvah nang teh patho lah na o han telah atipouh.
15 Now when one of those who were reclining with him heard these things, he said to him, "Blessed is he who will eat bread in the Kingdom of God."
Caboi koe ka tahung e tami buet touh ni hote lawk a thai navah Cathut uknaeram pawi dawk kâen e tami teh yawhawinae ao telah a dei navah,
16 But he said to him, "A certain man made a great supper, and he invited many people.
Jisuh ni tami buet touh teh ka talue poung lah pawi a sak teh taminaw pueng a kaw.
17 And he sent his servant at the hour for supper to tell those who were invited, 'Come, for everything is ready now.'
Pawitonae tueng a pha toteh kaw tangcoung e taminaw koe tami a patoun teh, tho awh bangpuengpa coungkacoe lah ao toe telah a thai sak.
18 They all as one began to make excuses. "The first said to him, 'I have bought a field, and I must go and see it. Please have me excused.'
Kaw kamcu e taminaw pueng ni a panuiparingkhai awh. Buet touh ni kai im hmuen ka ran. Ka cei vaiteh ka khet han. Kai na ngaithoum ei telah a kahei.
19 "Another said, 'I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I must go try them out. Please have me excused.'
Buet touh ni kai maito bo panga touh ka ran toe. Ka cei vaiteh ka tanouk han rah. Kai na ngaithoum ei telah a kâhei.
20 "Another said, 'I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.'
Buet touh ni kai ka yu hoi ka paluen toe. Hatdawkvah kai ka tho thai mahoeh.
21 "That servant came, and told his lord these things. Then the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant, 'Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in the poor, maimed, blind, and lame.'
A san ni bawipa koe bout a tho teh hote akongnaw a dei pouh. Hatnavah imkung a lungkhuek teh, kho thung lam teng lam rahak kaawmnaw, mathoenaw, kuepcinghoehnaw, khokkhemnaw hoi mitdawnnaw pueng kaw telah a san koe a dei pouh.
22 "The servant said, 'Lord, it is done as you commanded, and there is still room.'
A san ni hai Bawipa kâ na poe e patetlah ka sak toe. Hatei tahung nahane hmuen ka houng e ao rah telah a dei pouh.
23 "The lord said to the servant, 'Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.
Hahoi, Bawipa ni kho lawi, lam dawk, takha teng cet ei, kaie im dawk muen akawi thai nahan koung kaw lawih.
24 For I tell you that none of those individuals who were invited will taste of my supper.'"
Hmaloe kaw e taminaw buet touh hai kaie tangminbu patek mahoeh telah a san koe a dei pouh, telah atipouh.
25 Now large crowds were going with him. He turned and said to them,
Hathnukkhu tamihupui teh Bawipa hnuk a kâbang awh teh, a kamlang sin teh a khet navah,
26 "If anyone comes to me, and does not hate his own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.
apihai amae manu, napa, yuca, hmaunawnghanaw dueng laipalah amae hringnae patenghai pahnawt hoehpawiteh, ka hnuk kâbang lah awm thai hoeh.
27 Whoever does not bear his own cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.
Ama e thingpalam hrawm hoi ka hnuk kâbang hoeh e tami teh ka hnuk kâbang e lah awm thai hoeh.
28 For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, to see if he has enough to complete it?
Nangmouh thung dawkvah tami buetbuet touh ni, imrasang sak hanlah ngai pawiteh, hote im a cum totouh phoisa a khout hoi a khout hoeh e hah hmaloe tahung vaiteh, to laipalah ao han namaw.
29 Or perhaps, when he has laid a foundation, and is not able to finish, everyone who sees begins to mock him,
Hottelah to laipalah hoi khomkhu a tapu teh im cum thai hoehpawiteh ka hmawt e pueng ni a pathoe awh han nahoehmaw.
30 saying, 'This man began to build, and was not able to finish.'
Hete tami ni a kamtawng eiteh cum thai hoeh telah a pathoe awh han.
31 Or what king, as he goes to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand?
Hothloilah siangpahrang buet touh ni alouke siangpahrang hoi kâtuk han ati navah, ransa 20,000 touh hoi ka târun e hah, ransa 10,000 touh hoi tâ hoi tâ hoeh hane hmaloe pouk mahoeh maw.
32 Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends an envoy, and asks for conditions of peace.
Tâ thai mahoeh tetpawiteh alouke Siangpahrang ahlanae koe ao lahun navah laicei a patoun vaiteh roumnae ao thai nahan ngaithoumnae a hei han na vaiyaw.
33 So therefore whoever of you who does not renounce all that he has, he cannot be my disciple.
Hot patetlah nangmanaw pueng hai mae tawn e hnopainaw pueng na cettakhai hoehpawiteh kaie ka hnuk kâbang lah na awm thai hoeh.
34 Salt is good, but if the salt becomes flat and tasteless, with what do you season it?
Palawi teh ahawi. Hatei palawi teh a paannae kahmat pawiteh bangtelah hoi maw bout paan thai han.
35 It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile. It is thrown out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear."
Talai hanelah thoseh, ei lahai thoseh, hawikhangnae ao hoeh toung dawkvah, alawilah ouk a tâkhawng awh. Thai nahane hnâ ka tawn e tami ni thai naseh telah atipouh.
