Luke 18
1 And he was speaking a parable unto them, as to its being needful for them always to pray, and not be faint-hearted;
Kaminawk loe thazok ai ah lawkthuih han angaih, tiah nihcae khaeah patahhaih lok maeto a thuih pae;
2 saying—A certain judge, there was in a certain city, —having, for God, no reverence, and, for man, no respect.
avang maeto ah Sithaw zii ai, kami mikhmai doeh khen ai lokcaekkung maeto oh:
3 And, a widow, there was, in that city; and she kept coming unto him, saying—Vindicate me from mine adversary!
to avang thungah lamhmai maeto oh; lamhmai loe lokcaekkung khaeah caeh moe, Ka misa nuiah lu lak hanah lok na caek paeh, tiah tahmenhaih a hnik.
4 And he was unwilling for a time; but, after these things, he said within himself—Although, neither God, I reverence, nor man, I respect,
Atue nasetto thungah maw loe anih mah lokcaek ai ah oh pae: toe hnukkhuem ah loe, Sithaw to ka zii ai, kami mikhmai doeh ka khen ai;
5 Yet, if only because this widow annoyeth me, I will vindicate her, —lest, persistently coming, she wholly wear me out.
toe hae lamhmai mah raihaih ang paek khing boeh pongah, lok takroek pae halat ue, to tih ai nahaeloe anih angzo khing ueloe, raihaih na paek moeng tih, tiah a poek, tiah a naa.
6 And the Lord said—Hear ye what, the unrighteous judge saith; —
Angraeng mah, Katoeng ai lokcaek kami ih lok to poek oh.
7 And shall, God, in any wise not execute the vindication of his chosen ones, who are crying out to him day and night, although he beareth long with regard to them?
Sithaw mah angmah khaeah qum thun lawkthui kami, a qoih ih kaminawk hanah lokcaek pae mak ai maw, nihcae to atue kasawkah angam taak duem tih maw?
8 I tell you—He will execute their vindication, quickly! nevertheless, though, the Son of Man, do come, will he, after all, find the faith on the earth?
Kang thuih o, anih loe nihcae han karangah lokcaek pae tih. Toe Kami Capa angzoh naah Anih mah long nuiah tanghaih hnu tang tih maw? tiah a naa.
9 And he spake, even unto certain who were confident in themselves that they were righteous, and were despising the rest, this parable: —
Anih mah angmacae toenghaih angoep, minawk khet patoek kaminawk khaeah hae patahhaih lok hae a thuih pae:
10 Two men, went up into the temple to pray, one, a Pharisee, and, the other, a tax-collector.
kami hnik loe lawkthuih hanah tempul ah caeh hoi; maeto loe Farasi kami ah oh moe, kalah maeto loe tamut cong kami ah oh.
11 The Pharisee, taking his stand, these things unto himself was praying: O God! I thank thee, that I am not like the rest of men, —extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or, even as this tax-collector;
Farasi kami loe angdoet moe, Sithaw, kai loe minawk ih hmuen kalomh, kazae kaminawk, zu sava laep ah zaehaih sah kaminawk maw, to tih ai boeh loe hae ih tamut cong kami baktiah ka om ai pongah, anghoehaih lawk kang thuih.
12 I fast twice in the week, I give a tenth of whatsoever things I gain!
Ni sarihto thungah buh vai hnetto ka zah, ka tawnh ih hmuen thung boih hoiah hato thungah maeto ka paek, tiah lawk a thuih.
13 But, the tax-collector, afar off, standing, —would not so much as lift up, his eyes, unto heaven, but kept smiting his own breast saying—O God! be propitiated unto me, the sinner!
Toe tamut cong kami loe kangthla ah angdoet moe, van bangah doeh khen ngam ai, angmah ih saoek to atumh moe, Angraeng, kami zae kai nuiah palungnathaih tawn raeh, tiah lawk a thuih.
14 I tell you—This one went down justified, unto his house, rather than that one; because, every one who exalteth himself, shall be abased, but, he that abaseth himself, shall be exalted?
Kang thuih o, Kalah kami pongah loe hae tamut cong kami mah ni toenghaih to hnuk, to pacoengah angmah im ah amlaem: mi kawbaktih doeh angmah hoi angmah amkoeh kami loe krah tathuk tih; toe mi tlim ah khosah kami loe pakoeh ah om tih, tiah a naa.
15 And they were bringing unto him, even the babes, that he might touch, them; but the disciples, seeing it, began to rebuke them.
Jesu suisak hanah nawktanawk anih khaeah angzoh o haih: toe a hnukbang kaminawk mah hnuk o naah, nihcae to zoeh o.
16 But, Jesus, called them near, saying—Suffer, the children, to be coming unto me, and do not hinder them; for, of such, is the kingdom of God.
Toe Jesu mah nawktanawk to angmah khaeah kawk moe, Nawktanawk to kai khaeah angzo o sak ah, haek o hmah: Sithaw mah siangpahrang ah uk ih prae loe to baktih kami han ih ni oh.
17 Verily I say unto you—Whosoever shall not welcome the kingdom of God, as a child, in nowise shall enter thereinto.
Loktang kang thuih o, Mi kawbaktih doeh Sithaw prae to nawkta ta baktiah talawk ai kami loe a thungah akun thai mak ai, tiah a naa.
18 And a certain, ruler, questioned him, saying—Good Teacher! by doing what, shall I inherit life age-abiding? (aiōnios g166)
Ukkung maeto mah, Kahoih Patukkung, dungzan hinghaih qawktoep hanah timaw ka sak han? tiah dueng. (aiōnios g166)
19 But Jesus said to him—Why, callest thou me, good? None, is good, save one—God.
Jesu mah anih khaeah, Tipongah Kahoih, tiah nang kawk loe? Sithaw, Maeto khue ai ah loe, mi doeh hoih ai.
20 The commandments, thou knowest: —Do not commit adultery, Do not commit murder, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, —Honour thy father and mother,
Zu sava laep ah zaehaih sah hmah, Kami hum hmah, Paqu hmah, Hnukung amsawn ah om hmah, Nam no hoi nam pa saiqat ah, tiah kaom kaalok to na panoek to loe, tiah a naa.
21 And, he, said—All these things, have I kept from my youth.
Anih mah, Hae hmuennawk loe nawkta nathuem hoiah ni ka pazui boih boeh, tiah a naa.
22 And Jesus, hearing, said unto him—Yet one thing, unto thee, is lacking: Whatsoever thou hast, sell, and distribute unto the destitute, —and thou shalt have treasure in [the] heavens; and come! be following me.
To lok to Jesu mah thaih naah, anih mah to kami khaeah, Maeto na ngai vop: na tawnh ih hmuennawk to zawh boih ah loe, kamtang kaminawk hanah paek ah, to tiah nahaeloe van prae ah tangqum na tawn tih: to pacoengah angzo ah loe, ka hnukah bangah, tiah a naa.
23 But, he, hearing these things, became, encompassed with grief; for he was rich exceedingly.
Anih loe angraeng parai pongah, to lok to a thaih naah, paroeai palungset.
24 And Jesus, beholding him, said—With what difficulty, shall, they who have money, enter, into the kingdom of God.
Anih palungset parai, tiah Jesu mah panoek naah, Angraeng kaminawk Sithaw mah siangpahrang ah uk ih prae thungah akun han kawkruk maw rai!
25 For it is, easier, for a camel, to enter, through the eye of a needle, than for, a rich man, to enter, into the kingdom of God.
Angraeng kami van ah akun pongah loe, kaengkuu hrang phungvang khaw thungah akun han zoi kue, tiah a naa.
26 And they who heard said—Who, then, can be saved?
To lok thaih kaminawk mah, To tih nahaeloe mi maw pahlong ah om thai tih? tiah thuih o.
27 And, he, said—The things impossible with men, are, possible with God.
Anih mah, Kami han angcoeng thai ai hmuen to Sithaw hoiah loe angcoeng thaih, tiah a naa.
28 And Peter said—Lo! we, have left our own possessions, and followed thee!
Piter mah anih khaeah, Khenah, Kaicae loe hmuennawk ka caeh o taak boih moe, na hnukah ka bang o, tiah a naa.
29 And, he, said unto them—Verily, I say unto you—No one, is there, who hath left—house, or wife, or brethren, or parents, or children, —for the sake of the kingdom of God;
Jesu mah nihcae khaeah, Loktang kang thuih o, Mi kawbaktih doeh Sithaw mah siangpahrang ah uk ih prae hanah imlawk maw, to tih ai boeh loe amno ampa maw, to tih ai boeh loe nawkamya maw, to tih ai boeh loe a zu maw, to tih ai boeh loe a caanawk maw caehtaak kami loe,
31 And, taking aside the twelve, he said unto them—Lo! we are going up unto Jerusalem, and all the things will be finished, which have been written through means of the prophets, respecting the Son of Man;
Anih loe kami hatlai hnettonawk to angma khaeah hoih moe, nihcae khaeah, Khenah, Tahmaanawk mah tarik ih kami Capa kawng to akoep boih thai han ih ni, Jerusalem ah a caeh o.
32 For he will be delivered up unto the nations, and be mocked, and insulted, and spit upon, —
Anih to Gentelnawk khaeah paek o tih, pahnui o thuih tih, pacaekthlaek o ueloe, tamtui hoiah pathoih o tih:
33 and, having scourged him, they will slay him, and, on the third day, will, he, arise.
nihcae mah anih to bop o ueloe, hum o tih: toe anih loe ni thumto naah angthawk let tih, tiah a naa.
34 And, they, not one of these things, understood, and this saying was hidden from them, and the could not comprehend the things spoken.
Nihcae mah hae loknawk hae thaih o kop ai: hae thuihaih lok loe nihcae han lok tamqu ah oh pongah, tih lok maw a thuih, tito nihcae mah panoek o ai.
35 And it came to pass, as he was drawing near unto Jericho, a certain blind man, was sitting beside the road, begging.
Jeriko vangpui a phak tom naah, mikmaeng maeto loe lam taengah anghnut moe, ban patueng:
36 And. hearkening unto a multitude moving along, he enquired, what this, might be.
paroeai kaminawk lamcaehhaih atuen to anih mah thaih naah, tih tuen maw tiah minawk khaeah a dueng.
37 And they told him—Jesus of Nazareth, is passing by!
Kaminawk mah anih khaeah, Nazareth Jesu angzoh, tiah thuih pae o.
38 And he cried aloud, saying—Jesus, son of David! have mercy upon me!
Anih mah, nang David Capa, Jesu, ka nuiah palungnathaih tawn raeh, tiah a naa.
39 And, they that were going before, began to rebuke him, that he might hold his peace. But, he, by so much the more, was crying out—O Son of David! have mercy upon me!
Jesu hmaa ah caeh kaminawk mah anih khaeah, Om duem ah, tiah a naa o: toe anih mah, nang David capa, ka nuiah palungnathaih tawn raeh, tiah a hang aep.
40 And, standing still, Jesus commanded him to be led unto him; and, when he had drawn near, he questioned him—
Jesu loe angdoet moe, to kami to anih khaeah hoih hanah lok a paek: to kami Jesu khae phak naah loe, Jesu mah anih khaeah,
41 What desirest thou, I should do unto thee? And, he, said—Lord! …that I may recover sight!
nang hanah timaw saksak na koeh? tiah a dueng. Anih mah, Angraeng, mik amtueng han ka koeh, tiah a naa.
42 And, Jesus, said unto him—Recover sight! Thy faith, hath saved thee.
Jesu mah anih khaeah, Na mik amtueng lai ah, na tanghaih mah ang hoihsak boeh, tiah a naa.
43 And, instantly, he recovered sight, and began to follow him, glorifying God. And, all the people, beholding, gave praise unto God.
To naah a mik to amtueng pae roep, to pacoengah Jesu hnukah bang moe, Sithaw to pakoeh: kaminawk boih mah, to hmuen to hnuk o naah, Sithaw to saphaw o.
