Luke 17
1 Jesus said to His disciples, "It is inevitable that causes of stumbling should come; but alas for him through whom they come!
Jesuh naw axüisaw he üng, “Katnak üng khyang kyukngtäng sak khaia biloki cun a jo se ve,
2 It would be well for him if, with a millstone round his neck, he were lying at the bottom of the sea, rather than that he should cause even one of these little ones to fall.
“Hina anghmawca he üngka mat a mkhyekat saka kthaka ta a nghngü üng ksum khawp lü mliktui üng tawnin a hama daw bawk khai ni.
3 Be on your guard. "If your brother acts wrongly, reprove him; and if he is sorry, forgive him;
“Cäei ua, na bena naw a ning katnak üng na mcäi vai, a ngjut üng na mhlät vai.
4 and if seven times in a day he acts wrongly towards you, and seven times turns again to you and says, 'I am sorry,' you must forgive him."
“Mhmüp mat üng khyüh vei ning mkhyekat na lü, khyüh vei, ‘ngjut veng’ ti lü, a ning law si üng na mhlät vai,” a ti.
5 And the Apostles said to the Lord, "Give us faith."
Acunüng ngsä he naw, “Kami jumnak jah pung pea” ti u se,
6 "If your faith," replied the Lord, "is like a mustard seed, you might command this black-mulberry-tree, 'Tear up your roots and plant yourself in the sea,' and instantly it would obey you.
Jesuh naw, “Anca ui nglung ata kba jumnak nami tak üng, hina thing üng, ‘Na pya maha ngphawng law lü, mliktuia khana va ngdüia’ ti u lü, nami ngthu ngai khai.
7 But which of you who has a servant ploughing, or tending sheep, will say to him when he comes in from the farm, 'Come at once and take your place at table,'
“Cunsepi, nangmi üngka u naw a m'ya lai thawnkia pi kyase, toksäma pi kyase a law be üng, ‘law lü, ei law ktäia’ ti khai aw?
8 and will not rather say to him, 'Get my dinner ready, make yourself tidy, and wait upon me till I have finished my dinner, and then you shall have yours'?
“Acukba am pyen lü, ‘ka ei vai na pyan law pea, na suisak suiawi lü, ka eiawk k’um üng na ngänga. Acunkäna namät ei kaw pi’ am ti khai aw?
9 Does he thank the servant for obeying his orders?
“M'ya naw a mahpa a pyena kba a bilawha phäha a mahpa naw, ‘Na bä ni’ ti khai aw? Am ti.
10 So you also, when you have obeyed all the orders given you, must say, "'There is no merit in our service: what we have done is only what we were in duty bound to do.'"
“Acukba ngthupet he avan nami jah pawh käna, ‘Keimi hin kami mahpa kami jekyai sakia am kya naw, kami pawh kung vai kami pawhki ni,’ ti ua” a ti.
11 As they pursued their journey to Jerusalem, He passed through Samaria and Galilee.
Acunüng hinkba kyaki, Jerusalema ami ceh üng, Samarih la Kalile ng’yü jun üng citki.
12 And as He entered a certain village, ten men met Him who were lepers and stood at a distance.
Acunüng, ngnam mata a luh la, mnehkse mnehkia khyang xa naw ami na khyüm, acun he cun athuknaka ngdüi u lü,
13 In loud voices they cried out, "Jesus, Rabbi, take pity on us."
“Bawipa Jesuh aw, jah m'yeneia” tia, angsanga ngpyangki he.
14 Perceiving this, He said to them, "Go and show yourselves to the Priests." And while on their way to do this they were made clean.
Acunüng Jesuh naw, a jah hmuh üng, “Cit u lü, ktaiyü hea veia va ngtengei kyusak ua” a ti. Acunüng, hinkba kyaki, ami ceh k’um üng ami van ngcim lawki he.
15 One of them, seeing that he was cured, came back, adoring and praising God in a loud voice,
Acunüng, ami van üngka mat naw, yai beki ti a ksing la, angsanga Pamhnam a mküimto maha, nghlat be lü,
16 and he threw himself at the feet of Jesus, thanking Him. He was a Samaritan.
Jesuha khaw kunga kawp lü, jekyainaka ngthu a pyen; acuna khyang cun Samarih khyanga kyaki.
17 "Were not all ten made clean?" Jesus asked; "but where are the nine?
Acunüng, Jesuh naw msang lü, “Khyang xa nami ngcim bekia am kya aih se? Kawe cen hawia ni ami ve?
18 Have none been found to come back and give glory to God except this foreigner?"
“Hina khyangmjükce naw Pamhnam mküimto khaia nghlat law beki hin” a ti.
19 And He said to him, "Rise and go: your faith has cured you."
Acunüng Jesuh naw, “Tho law lü, cita; na jumnak naw ning yai sak be ve,” a ti.
20 Being asked by the Pharisees when the Kingdom of God was coming, He answered, "The Kingdom of God does not so come that you can stealthily watch for it.
Acunüng, Pharise he naw, “Itia ni Pamhnama khaw a pha law kawm?” tia kthäh u se, Jesuh naw, “Pamhnama khaw cun hmuh thei vaia pha law khaia am kya;
21 Nor will they say, 'See here!' or 'See there!' --for the Kingdom of God is within you."
“Teng u, hia ni, cuia ni,’ ti vaia am kya, Pamhnama khaw cun nami k’uma awmki ni,” ti lü a jah msang.
22 Then, turning to His disciples, He said, "There will come a time when you will wish you could see a single one of the days of the Son of Man, but will not see one.
Acunüng, axüisaw hea veia, “Khyanga Capa khawmhmüp he, mhmüp matca hleng hmu hlü u lü pi am nami hmuhnak thei vaia kcün pha law khai.
23 And they will say to you, 'See there!' 'See here!' Do not start off and go in pursuit.
“Acunüng, nami veia, ‘Teng u, hia ni, cuia ni’ ning jah tina khai he, ä cit u lü, ä nami jah läk vai;
24 For just as the lightning, when it flashes, shines from one part of the horizon to the opposite part, so will the Son of Man be on His day.
khaw nghmüm law se ‘khana mkek, khan avan üng a vai lawa kba, khyanga Capa a law bea mhmüp üng acunkba kya law khai.
25 But first He must endure much suffering, and be rejected by the present generation.
“Cunsepi, am acun ham üng, aktäa khuikhanak khamei lü atuh ngsawn hea ksekhanak vaia awm khai.
26 "And as it was in the time of Noah, so will it also be in the time of the Son of Man.
“Nawea kcün üngka kba khyanga Capa a law be üng pi kya law khai.
27 Men were eating and drinking, taking wives and giving wives, up to the very day on which Noah entered the Ark, and the Deluge came and destroyed them all.
“Nawe mlawng üng lut se, mlikpitui phu lawki naw ami van a jah mthihnaka mhmüp am a pha law hlana küt üng, ei aw u lü, ngkhyungla u lü awmki he.
28 The same was true in the time of Lot: they were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building;
“Acunakba Lotaha xün hün üng; ei aw u lü, khei u lü, jawitu u lü, nglingsaw u lü, ngsawngsaki he;
29 but on the day that Lot left Sodom, God rained fire and brimstone from the sky and destroyed them all.
cunsepi, Sodom khaw üngka naw, Lotah a ktawiha mhmüp üng khana üngka mei la kat, khawa a lawki naw ami van a jah mthiha kba,
30 Exactly so will it be on the day that the veil is lifted from the Son of Man.
khyanga Capa a law bea mhmüp üng kya law khai.
31 "On that day, if a man is on the roof and his property indoors, let him not go down to fetch it; and, in the same way, he who is in the field, let him not turn back.
“Acuna mhmüp üng upi, mkyung khana awmki naw, im k’um üngka a khawhthem loei khaia ä kyum law se. Acuna kba laia awmki pi a hnua ä nghlat be se.
32 Remember Lot's wife.
“Lotah khyu süm ua.
33 Any man who makes it his object to keep his own life safe, will lose it; but whoever loses his life will preserve it.
“Upi, amäta xünnak küikyan khaia büki naw mkhyüh lü, upi a xünnak mkhyühki naw küikyanei khai.
34 On that night, I tell you, there will be two men in one bed: one will be taken away and the other left behind.
“Ka ning jah mthehki, acuna mthan üng ihnak mat üng ipki xawia khyang nghngih, mat jäk se mat awm hüt khai.
35 There will be two women turning the mill together: one will be taken away and the other left behind."
“Ksum suki xawia nghnumi nghngih üngka mat jäk se mat awm hüt khai.
“Laia awmki xawi nghngih üngka, mat jäk se mat awm hüt khai,” a ti.
37 "Where, Master?" they inquired. "Where the dead body is," He replied, "there also will the vultures flock together."
Acunüng, axüisaw he naw, “Bawipa aw, hawia ni?” tia ami kthäh. Jesuh naw, “Akthia awmnak naküta nghmukse he ngcun khai he,” a ti.
