< Luke 23 >

1 The whole company of them rose up and brought him before Pilate.
Toah amkhueng paroeai kaminawk loe angthawk o moe, anih to Pilat khaeah caeh o haih.
2 They began to accuse him, saying, “We found this man perverting the nation, forbidding paying taxes to Caesar, and saying that he himself is Messiah, a king.”
Nihcae mah anih to kasae net o, Hae kami mah kaminawk aling moe, Caesar khaeah tamut paek han ai ah lok a thuih, angmah hoi angmah to Kri, Siangpahrang ni, tiah a thuih, tiah a naa o.
3 Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” He answered him, “So you say.”
Pilat mah anih to lokdueng, Nang loe Judahnawk ih Siangpahrang maw? tiah a naa. Anih mah, Na thuih ih baktiah ka oh, tiah a naa.
4 Pilate said to the chief priests and the multitudes, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.”
Pilat mah kalen koek qaima hoi rangpuinawk khaeah, Hae kami zaehaih ka hnu ai, tiah a naa.
5 But they insisted, saying, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee even to this place.”
To naah nihcae mah tha hoi hangh o, Hae kami loe Kalili hoi kamtong hae ahmuen khoek to, Judah prae thung boih ah patukhaih sah kami, minawk ih palungthin pahruek kami ah oh, tiah a naa o.
6 But when Pilate heard Galilee mentioned, he asked if the man was a Galilean.
Pilat mah Kalili, tih ih lok to thaih naah, anih loe Kalili kami maw, tiah a dueng.
7 When he found out that he was in Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem during those days.
Akra ai ah Jesu loe Herod ukhaih thungah kaom kami ni, tito Pilat mah panoek naah, Anih to Herod khaeah patoeh, Herod loe to nathuem ah Jerusalem ah oh.
8 Now when Herod saw Yeshua, he was exceedingly glad, for he had wanted to see him for a long time, because he had heard many things about him. He hoped to see some miracle done by him.
Herod mah Jesu to hnuk naah, paroeai oephaih to tawnh: anih khae hoi thaih ih paroeai hmuennawk oh pongah, anih hnuk han koehhaih loe sawk parai boeh; anih mah sak ih dawnrai hmuen to hnuk han a koeh.
9 He questioned him with many words, but he gave no answers.
Anih mah pop parai ah lok to dueng; toe Jesu mah anih han tidoeh pathim pae ai.
10 The chief priests and the scribes stood, vehemently accusing him.
Qaima hoi ca tarik kaminawk to ahmuen ah angdoet o moe, anih to zaehaih net o.
11 Herod with his soldiers humiliated him and mocked him. Dressing him in luxurious clothing, they sent him back to Pilate.
Herod hoi anih ih misatuh kaminawk mah Jesu to tiah doeh poek o ai, pahnui o thuih, anih hanah kahoih kahni to angkhuk o sak moe, Pilat khaeah patoeh o let.
12 Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day, for before that they were enemies with each other.
To na ni roe ah Pilat hoi Herod loe ampui ah oh hoi: canghniah loe maeto hoi maeto misa ah ni oh hoi.
13 Pilate called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people,
Pilat loe kalen koek qaima, ukkungnawk hoi kaminawk to nawnto kawk moe, nihcae khaeah,
14 and said to them, “You brought this man to me as one that perverts the people, and behold, having examined him before you, I found no basis for a charge against this man concerning those things of which you accuse him.
hae kami mah misa angthawk hanah kaminawk to pacuek, tiah na thuih o pongah kai khaeah nang hoih o: khenah, nangcae hma ah anih hae lok ka caek boeh, toe na net o ih zaehaih baktiah hae kami nuiah zaehaih tidoeh ka hnu ai.
15 Neither has Herod, for I sent you to him, and see, nothing worthy of death has been done by him.
Herod mah doeh a sakpazaehaih hnu ai: anih khaeah doeh kang patoeh o boeh, khenah, anih mah duek han kakrah sak ih zaehaih tidoeh om ai.
16 I will therefore chastise him and release him.”
To pongah anih to ka thuitaek moe, ka prawt han, tiah a naa.
17 Now he had to release one prisoner to them at the feast.
(To poih thungah anih mah kami maeto rangpuinawk khaeah prawt pae han angaih).
18 But they all cried out together, saying, “Away with this man! Release to us Barabbas!”—
To naah nihcae boih mah, Hae kami hae hum ah loe, Barabba to kaicae khae prawt ah, tiah nawnto hang o:
19 one who was thrown into prison for a certain revolt in the city, and for murder.
(Barabba loe vangpui thungah misa angthawk kami ah oh moe, kami hum pongah thongim ah pakhrak o).
20 Then Pilate spoke to them again, wanting to release Yeshua,
Pilat mah Jesu to prawt han koeh pongah, nihcae khaeah lokthuih let.
21 but they shouted, saying, “Crucify! Crucify him!”
Toe nihcae mah, Thinglam pong takhing ah, thinglam pong takhing ah, tiah hangh o.
22 He said to them the third time, “Why? What evil has this man done? I have found no capital crime in him. I will therefore chastise him and release him.”
Pilat mah nihcae khaeah vai thumto, Tipongah, hae kami mah tih zaehaih maw sak? Anih hum hanah zaehaih tidoeh ka hnu ai: to pongah anih to ka thuitaek moe, ka prawt han, tiah a naa o.
23 But they were urgent with loud voices, asking that he might be crucified. Their voices and the voices of the chief priests prevailed.
Toe anih to thinglam pong takhing ah, tiah kanung aep ah a hangh o. To naah rangpuinawk hoi kalen koek qaima ih lok mah pazawk.
24 Pilate decreed that what they asked for should be done.
Nihcae mah hnik o ih baktih toengah Pilat mah paroi pae.
25 He released him who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, for whom they asked, but he delivered Yeshua up to their will.
Nihcae mah prawt han hnik o ih, misa angthawk moe, kami hum pongah, thongim ah pakhrak ih Barabba to nihcae khaeah a prawt pae; Jesu to angmacae koeh baktiah sak hanah nihcae khaeah a paek.
26 When they led him away, they grabbed one Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country, and laid the cross on him to carry it after Yeshua.
Anih to loklam ah a acaeh o haih li naah, vangta bang hoiah angzo, Cyrene prae ah kaom, Simon to a naeh o moe, Jesu hnukah thinglam aput o sak.
27 A great multitude of the people followed him, including women who also mourned and lamented him.
Paroeai kaminawk anih hnukah bang o, palungset hoiah kaqah nongpatanawk doeh anih hnukah bang o toeng.
28 But Yeshua, turning to them, said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, don’t weep for me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.
Jesu nihcae khaeah angqoi moe, Jerusalem canunawk, kai na qah o haih hmah, nangmacae hoi na caanawk to qah o haih ah.
29 For behold, the days are coming in which they will say, ‘Blessed are the barren, the wombs that never bore, and the breasts that never nursed.’
Khenah, nihcae mah, Zokpom vai ai caa kak kaminawk hoi nawkta tahnu naesak vai ai nongpatanawk loe tahamhoih o, tiah thuih ih ninawk to pha tih.
30 Then they will begin to tell the mountains, ‘Fall on us!’ and tell the hills, ‘Cover us.’
To naah nihcae mah, Maesangnawk khaeah, Kaicae hae tanim thui ah; maesomnawk khaeah, Kaicae hae taet ah, tiah naa o tih.
31 For if they do these things in the green tree, what will be done in the dry?”
Nihcae mah kahing thing to hae tiah sah o nahaeloe, kangqo thing cae loe kawbangah maw sah o tih? tiah a naa.
32 There were also others, two criminals, led with him to be put to death.
Kami kazae hnik doeh thinglam pong takhing hanah anih hoi nawnto caeh o haih.
33 When they came to the place that is called “The Skull”, they crucified him there with the criminals, one on the right and the other on the left.
Kalvary, tiah kawk ih ahmuen to phak o naah loe, anih to thinglam pongah takhing o, kami zae hnik doeh bantang bangah maeto, banqoi bangah kalah maeto takhing o toeng.
34 Yeshua said, “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing.” Dividing his garments amongst them, they cast lots.
Jesu mah, Pa, nihcae to tahmen ah; nihcae loe a sak o ih hmuen to panoek o ai, tiah a naa. Taham khethaih phoisa to azuh o moe, anih ih kahni to amzet o.
35 The people stood watching. The rulers with them also scoffed at him, saying, “He saved others. Let him save himself, if this is the Messiah of God, his chosen one!”
Kaminawk loe angdoet o moe, khet o. Ukkungnawk mah anih to pahnui o thuih, kalah kaminawk to a pahlong; Sithaw mah qoih ih, Kri ah om nahaeloe, angmah hoi angmah to amhlong nasoe, tiah a naa o.
36 The soldiers also mocked him, coming to him and offering him vinegar,
Misatuh kaminawk doeh anih khaeah angzoh o, anih to pahnui o thuih moe, anih hanah kathaw tui to paek o,
37 and saying, “If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself!”
Judah Siangpahrang ah na oh nahaeloe, nangmah hoi nangmah to amhlong ah, tiah a naa o.
38 An inscription was also written over him in letters of Greek, Latin, and Hebrew: “THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
HAE LOE JUDAHNAWK IH SIANGPAHRANG, tiah Grik ca, Latin ca, Hebru ca hoiah a lu nuiah tarik pae o.
39 One of the criminals who was hanged insulted him, saying, “If you are the Messiah, save yourself and us!”
Thinglam pong takhing ih kami zae maeto mah, Nang loe Kri ah na oh nahaeloe, nangmah hoi nangmah to amhlong ah loe, kaihnik doeh pahlong khae, tiah hang thuih.
40 But the other answered, and rebuking him said, “Don’t you even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation?
Toe kalah kami zae maeto mah loe anih to zoeh, Sithaw to na zii ai maw, nang loe anih hoi kangvan ah na ai maw danpaekhaih to na tongh?
41 And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward for our deeds, but this man has done nothing wrong.”
Aihnik loe katoeng lokcaekhaih ni a hak hoi; a sak hoi ih hmuen baktih toengah ni tangqum to a hnuk hoi: toe hae kami loe zaehaih tidoeh sah ai, tiah a naa.
42 He said to Yeshua, “Lord, remember me when you come into your Kingdom.”
To pacoengah anih mah Jesu khaeah, Angraeng, siangpahrang ah na ukhaih prae ah phak naah kai na pahnet hmah, tiah a naa.
43 Yeshua said to him, “Assuredly I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise.”
Jesu mah anih khaeah, Loktang kang thuih, Vaihniah kai hoi nawnto paradise ah na om tih, tiah a naa.
44 It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour.
Atue tarukto hoi kamtong takawtto karoek to long nui boih ah khoving.
45 The sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn in two.
Ni aengh anghmat moe, tempul pakaa ih kahni to hnetto ah angsih.
46 Yeshua, crying with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” Having said this, he breathed his last.
Jesu loe tha hoiah hangh moe, Pa, ka hinghaih Muithla na ban ah kang paek, tiah thuih: to tiah thuih pacoengah a hinghaih qui to apet.
47 When the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, “Certainly this was a righteous man.”
Misatuh angraeng mah to tiah kaom hmuen to hnuk naah, Sithaw to pakoeh moe, Hae loe kami katoeng ni, tiah thuih.
48 All the multitudes that came together to see this, when they saw the things that were done, returned home beating their chests.
To ahmuen ah nawnto kaom kaminawk boih mah, to tiah kaom hmuennawk to hnuk o naah, angmacae ih saoek to atumh o moe, amlaem o.
49 All his acquaintances and the women who followed with him from Galilee stood at a distance, watching these things.
Anih panoek kaminawk boih hoi a hnukbang Kalili prae ih nongpatanawk loe, ahmuen kangthla ah angdoet o moe, to ah kaom hmuennawk to khet o.
50 Behold, there was a man named Joseph, who was a member of the council, a good and righteous man
Khenah, Joseph, tiah ahmin kaom kami maeto oh, anih loe lok takroekkung maeto ah oh; anih loe kahoih kami, katoeng kami ah oh:
51 (he had not consented to their counsel and deed), from Arimathaea, a city of the Judeans, who was also waiting for God’s Kingdom.
(Nihcae lok takroekhaih hoi a sak o ih hmuennawk to anih mah naakrah haih ai: ) anih loe Judahnawk ih vangpui, Arimathea ah kaom kami, Sithaw ukhaih prae zing kami ah oh.
52 This man went to Pilate, and asked for Yeshua’s body.
Anih loe Pilat khaeah caeh moe, Jesu ih qok to hnik.
53 He took it down and wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb that was cut in stone, where no one had ever been laid.
Qok to a lak moe, puu kahni hoiah ayaw pacoengah, mi doeh aphum vai ai ih, thlung hoiah thuk ih taprong thungah pasong.
54 It was the day of the Preparation, and the Sabbath was drawing near.
To ni loe amprikcaihaih niah oh moe, Sabbath ni to anghnai boeh.
55 The women who had come with him out of Galilee followed after, and saw the tomb and how his body was laid.
Kalili prae hoiah Jesu hnukbang nongpatanawk loe, Joseph hnukah bang o moe, anih ih qok kawbangmaw pasong o, tito khet hanah, taprong ah caeh o.
56 They returned and prepared spices and ointments. On the Sabbath they rested according to the commandment.
To pacoengah im ah amlaem o moe, hmuihoihtuinawk to a sak o: toe nihcae loe kaalok baktih toengah Sabbath niah loe anghak o.
