1 Acuna hmün Jesuh naw ceh ta lü a ngnama cit be se axüisaw he naw pi ami läk.
He went out from there and came to his hometown, and his disciples followed him.

When the Sabbath came, he taught in the synagogue. Many people heard him and they were amazed. They said, “Where did he get these teachings?” “What is this wisdom that has been given to him?” “What are these miracles that he does with his hands?”
3 Hina khyang hin Mariha ca Jakuk, Josep, Judah la Sihmona ami ktai, imksa am kya aih se? A na he pi hin üng am awmki hea kya aih u se?” tia ami ma.
“Is this not the carpenter, the son of Mary and the brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? Are his sisters not here with us?” They were offended by Jesus.
4 Jesuh naw, “Sahma he cun amimäta ngnam, amimäta mjükphyüi la khuikkyawnga thea ta hmün naküta mhlünmtainak yahki he,” a ti.
Then Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor, except in his hometown and among his own relatives and in his own household.”
5 Am phetkia khyang he ajawca hea khana a kut mtaih lü a jah m’yai be thea ta müncankse bilawh i pi am pawh.
He was unable to do any mighty work, except to lay his hands on a few sick people and heal them.
6 Khyang he naw am ami jumeia phäha Jesuh aktäa müncaki. Acunüng ngnam he üng jah mthei hü lü ngvei hüki.
He was amazed at their unbelief. Then he went around the villages teaching.
7 Jesuh naw xaleinghngih he a veia jah khü lü nghngih cia a jah tüih. Ngmüimkhya kse he jah nängnaka ana a jah pet.
Then he called the twelve and began to send them out two by two, and he gave them authority over the unclean spirits,
8 Ami ceh üng, “Ksawngkhe thea muk, kthäheinaka ngja, nami kcukcawk üng ngui ä nami jah cehei vai.
and instructed them to take nothing for their journey, except a staff—no bread, no bag, and no money in their belts—
9 Khawdawk nami ngcum vai, kcu nghngih ä nami cehei vai,” a ti.
but to wear sandals, and not to wear two tunics.
10 Acuna thea pi Jesuh naw, “Ahawiapi ami ning jah jenak üng nami ceh be vei acuna im üng nami awm vai.
He said to them, “Whenever you enter a house, remain until you go away from there.
11 Am ami ning jah jenak la nami ngthu am ami ngainaka mlüha nami law üng, ceh ta u lü nami khaw üngka mput nami kha hüt vai. Acun cun ami phäha ngthumkhyanak vaia msingnaka kya khai,” a ti.
If any town will not receive you or listen to you, when you leave that place, shake the dust off your feet as a testimony to them.”
12 Acunüng cit u lü, acuna khyang he ami katnak he üngka naw ami nghlat lawnak vaia ngthu va pyenki he.
They went out and proclaimed that people should turn away from their sins.
13 Khawyai he khawjah jah ksät u lü am phetki he khawjah Olip ksi am jah hluk u se yai beki he.
They cast out many demons, and anointed many sick people with oil and healed them.
14 Sangpuxang Herod naw Jesuha ngming aktäa ngthang lawkia kyase a ngjak law. Khyang avang he naw, “Baptican Johan thihnak üngka naw tho law be ve. Acunakyase ni, hinkba khyaihbahnak he ani üng awm khai,” ami ti.
King Herod heard this, for Jesus' name had become well known. Some were saying, “John the Baptist has been raised from the dead, and that is why these miraculous powers are at work in him.”
15 Avang he naw, “Elijah ni” ami ti. Avang he naw, “Hin hin ajana ka sahma hea kba, sahma mat ni,” ami ti.
Some others said, “He is Elijah.” Still others said, “He is a prophet, like one of the prophets in ancient times.”
16 Herod naw a ngjak üng, “Hin hin a lu ka khyüna Johan ni, thihnak üngka naw tho law beki ni,” a ti.
But when Herod heard this he said, “John, whom I beheaded, has been raised.”
17 Isetiakyaüng, Herod naw a na Philipa khyu, Herodih yut lü khyu naki naw, acuna nghnumia phäha Johan cun jah mansak lü thawngim üng a khyuma kyaki.
For Herod sent to have John arrested and he had him bound in prison on account of Herodias (his brother Philip's wife), because he had married her.
18 Johan naw Herod üng, “Na naa khyu na khyunak hin nglawiki aw?” a ti.
For John told Herod, “It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife.”
19 Acunakyase Herodih naw Johan cun hneng lü a mkhyüh vaia a bü, cunsepi Heroda phäha am hnim thei.
But Herodias held on to anger against him and wanted to kill him, but she could not,
20 Sangpuxang Herod naw Johan cun khyang kdawa kya lü, ngcimcaihkia ksingki naw kyüh lü aktäa a yung. Johana ngthu pyena phäha kyükyawk sepi, a ngthu pyen cun ngai hlüki.
for Herod feared John; he knew that he was a righteous and holy man, and he kept him safe. Listening to him made him greatly upset, yet he heard him gladly.
21 Mhmüp mat üng, Herod naw a hminaka khawmhmüp pawi pawh lü a khyang ngvai he, yekap ngvai he, bawi he la, Kalile khaw üng khyang ngvai he am buh a jah pawh pet. Acunüng Heroda khyu Herodih naw Johan a hnimnak vaia kcün kdaw yahki.
Then the opportunity came when Herod had his birthday and he made a dinner for his officials, and his commanders, and leaders of Galilee.
22 Herodiha canu, nglaca law lü nglam lawki naw, Herod la a ngawhpüia khin he ami mlung aktäa a jah jesak. Acuna sangpuxang naw, “Ipi na ngaih kthäha, ka ning pe khai,” a ti.
The daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced for them, and she pleased Herod and his dinner guests. The king said to the girl, “Ask me for anything you want and I will give it to you.”
23 Acunüng Herod naw khyütam na lü, “Ipi na ngaih kthäha, ka uka khaw amte pi ka ning pe khai” a ti.
He swore to her saying, “Whatever you ask of me, I will give you, up to half of my kingdom.”
24 Acuna nglaca naw a nua veia cit lü, “Ini ka kthäh kawm?” ti se, A nu naw, “Baptican Johana lu,” a ti.
She went out and said to her mother, “What should I ask him for?” She said, “The head of John the Baptist.”
25 Acunja nglaca angxita sangpuxanga veia va cit be lü, “Baptican Johana lu, angxita mlikbe üng na na pet vai ngaih veng!” a ti.
She immediately hurried back to the king, and she asked, saying, “I want you to give me, right now, the head of John the Baptist on a wooden platter.”
26 Sangpuxang cun aktäa ngjutki, cunsepi a sitiha phäha la a veia ngawki khin hea phäha am ma thei.
Though this deeply grieved the king, he could not refuse her request because of the oath he had made and because of his dinner guests.
27 Acuna sangpuxang naw yekap angxita tüi lü, Johana lu a lawpüi vaia a mtheh. Yekap naw thawngima cit lü Johana lu a va khyün.
So the king sent a soldier from his guard and commanded him to bring him John's head. The guard went and beheaded him in the prison.
28 Acunüng, Johana lu mlikbe üng lawpüi lü nglaca am pe se, nglaca naw a nu üng a pet.
He brought his head on a platter and gave it to the girl, and the girl gave it to her mother.
29 Johana axüisaw he naw ami ngjak üng a yawk va mhläm u lü ami k’ut.
When his disciples heard of this, they came and took his body and placed it in a tomb.
30 Ngsä he Jesuha veia law be u lü ami pawhmsah he la ami jah mtheimthange avan ami mtheh law be.
The apostles returned to Jesus and told him all that they had done and taught.
31 Khyang khawjah citcawn hüki hea kyase, Jesuh la axüisaw he ei, ami ei vaia pi am ngbünei u. Acuna Jesuh naw “Khyang am a awmnaka mi cit vai u, namimät awm u lü asäng nami xüieinak thei vaia,” a ti.
Then he said to them, “Come away by yourselves into a deserted place and rest a while.” For many were coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat.
32 Acuna angxinaka mlawng am amimät citki he.
So they went away in the boat to a deserted place by themselves.
33 Cunsepi ami ktawih jah hmu u lü, ami unak jah ksingki he naw, ami van mlüh avan üngka naw kawng lama ana dawng u lü, Jesuh la axüisaw he am ami pha phat üng phaki he.
But they saw them leaving and many recognized them, and they ran there together on foot from all the towns, and they arrived there before them.
34 Jesuh mlawng üngka naw kyum law lü khyang aktäkpai, toksäm am awmkia to hea kba law u se jah hmu lü, aktäa mthinmhnateiki. Acunüng tün lü khawjah a jah mthei.
When they came ashore, he saw a great crowd and he had compassion on them because they were like sheep without a shepherd. So he began to teach them many things.
35 Khaw mü law se axüisaw he a veia law u lü, “Hin hin angxinak khawkhyawng khawa kyaki, khaw pi mü pängki.
When the hour was late, his disciples came to him and said, “This is a deserted place and the hour is already late.
36 Khyang he jah tüi bea, ahina pipei ngnam he la lomaea ami ei vai kheihei hü u se,” ami ti.
Send them away so that they may go into the nearby countryside and villages to buy something to eat for themselves.”
37 Jesuh naw, “Nangmi naw ami ei vai iyaw jah pe ua,” a ti. Axüisaw he naw, “Cit u lü, denarih ngui phya nghngihphu muk ei vai va khei u lü kami jah pe khai aw?” ami ti.
But he answered and said to them, “You give them something to eat.” They said to him, “Can we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give it to them to eat?”
38 Jesuh naw, “Muk, ijah nami taki aw? Cit u lü va teng ua,” ti se. Hmu u lü, “Muk mhma la nga nghngih,” ami ti.
He said to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go and see.” When they found out, they said, “Five loaves and two fish.”
39 Jesuh naw axüisaw he üng msai kxünga khana aphäh phäha ami jah ngawhsak vaia a jah mtheh.
He commanded all the people to sit down in groups upon the green grass.
40 Acunüng avang aphya, avang mhmakip phäh phäha ngawki he.
They sat down in groups of hundreds and fifties.
41 Acunüng Jesuh naw muk mhma la nga nghngih jah lo lü, khana mang lü, Mhnama veia jenak pyen lü, muk cun boki naw ami yet vaia axüisaw he üng a jah pet. Nga nghngih pi bo lü a jah pet.
He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven he blessed and broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples to set before the people. He also divided the two fish among them all.
42 Ami van naw ei u lü phüki he.
They all ate until they were satisfied.
43 Axüisaw he naw muk la nga mnawi mkhäm u se, cä xaleinghngih lawki.
They took up broken pieces of bread, twelve baskets full, and also pieces of the fish.
44 Muk eiki he cun kpami däng thawng mhma lawki he.
There were five thousand men who ate the loaves.
45 Jesuh naw khyang he a jah ngpyengsak k’um üng, axüisaw he mlawnga khana jah luhsak ktäih lü, caye tuili kam Bethsaida mlüh da a jah cehsak.
Immediately he made his disciples get into the boat and go ahead of him to the other side, to Bethsaida, while he sent the crowd away.
46 Acukba khyang he a jah khyah käna amät cun ktaiyü khaia mcunga citki.
When they were gone, he went up the mountain to pray.
47 Khawmü lama mlawng tuili nglung üng ve se, Jesuh amät kawnga awmki.
Evening came, and the boat was now in the middle of the sea, and he was alone on land.
48 Acunüng khawkhi naw ami mlawng vei hü hü se, am va pek thei u lü ami ve k’um üng, ngawi lam naji kthum la khyuka nglak üng Jesuh tuia khana ami veia lawki. Jah khye law hlü lü,
He saw that they straining against the oars, for the wind was against them. About the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea, and he wanted to pass by them.
49 tuia khana cit se hmuki he naw ngmüimkhyaa sui u lü ngpyangki he.
But when they saw him walking on the sea, they thought he was a ghost and cried out,
50 Ami van naw hmu u lü, kyühki he. Jesuh naw, “Dim’yenak am ve ua, kei ni, ä kyüh ua,” ti lü a jah msang.
because they saw him and were terrified. Immediately he spoke to them and said to them, “Be courageous! It is I! Do not be afraid!”
51 Acunüng ami veia mlawnga khana kai hnga se khawkhi ngdümki. Acunüng ami van aktäa cäi leng lengki he.
He got into the boat with them, and the wind ceased blowing. They were completely amazed.
52 Isetiakyaüng muk am a jah mcaha mawng pi akcanga am ami ksing theia phäha kyaki; ami ngaikyunak naw am ksing thei.
For they had not understood what the loaves meant. Instead, their hearts were hardened.
53 Tuili khe u lü ami va pek käna Kenesaret mlüh kawnga pha law u lü, tui kama ami mlawng cun ami kphung.
When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret and anchored the boat.
54 Mlawng üngka naw ami kyum law la khyang he naw Jesuh cun ami ksing law.
When they came out of the boat, the people recognized him immediately,
55 Acunakyase khaw üngka avan dawng law u lü, Jesuh awmki ti ami ngjaknak avana, am phetki he cun ami ngjännak maha a veia ami jah kawh law.
and they ran throughout the whole region and began to bring the sick on their mats to wherever they heard he was.
56 Ahawia pi Jesuh a cehnak ngnam avan, mlüh avan la loma avana, am phetkia khyang he jah lawpüi u lü khyang hea ngcunnak hmüna jah ta hüt u lü, a suisak mdawngca hleng hnet vaia ami nghuinak. Acunüng hnetki avan cun phet beki he.
Wherever he entered into villages, or cities, or into the country, they would put the sick in the marketplaces. They begged him to let them touch the edge of his garment, and as many as touched him were healed.
