Luka 8
1 To pacoengah, Jesu loe vangpui hoi vangta boih ah caeh moe, Sithaw mah siangpahrang ah ukhaih prae ih kahoih tamthanglok to taphong, a hnukbang hatlai hnettonawk doeh anih khaeah oh o.
Soon afterwards, he went about through cities and villages, preaching and bringing the good news of God’s Kingdom. With him were the twelve,
2 Taqawk sae mah naehhaih thung hoi ngan katui let thoemto nongpatanawk, takoh thung hoiah taqawk sae sarihto tacawt Meri, tiah kawk ih Magdalene,
and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities: Mary who was called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out;
3 Herod ih im khenzawnkung, Chuza ih zu Joanna, Susanna hoi Anih han angmacae ih hmuennawk kapaek kalah nongpatanawk to oh o.
and Joanna, the wife of Chuzas, Herod’s steward; Susanna; and many others who served them from their possessions.
4 Avang kruek ih pop parai kaminawk nawnto amkhueng o moe, Anih khaeah angzoh o, to naah anih mah patahhaih lok to thuih pae:
When a great multitude came together and people from every city were coming to him, he spoke by a parable:
5 aantii haeh kami loe angmah ih aantii to haeh hanah a caeh: antii to a haeh naah thoemto loe loklam ah krak; kaminawk mah cawh o moe, van ih tavanawk mah akhuih o ving.
“The farmer went out to sow his seed. As he sowed, some fell along the road, and it was trampled under foot, and the birds of the sky devoured it.
6 Thoemto loe thlung nuiah krak; akra ai ah amprawk roep, toe long kahoih om ai pongah azaem ving.
Other seed fell on the rock, and as soon as it grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture.
7 Thoemto loe soekhring thungah krak; soekhring qoeng tahang naah, aankung to tacet hmoek.
Other fell amid the thorns, and the thorns grew with it and choked it.
8 Thoemto aantii loe long kahoih nuiah krak, amprawk tahang moe, alet cumvai khoek to athaih. Hae loknawk a thuih pacoengah, anih mah, Thaihaih naa tawn kami loe thaih nasoe, tiah a naa.
Other fell into the good ground and grew and produced one hundred times as much fruit.” As he said these things, he called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear!”
9 A hnukbang kaminawk mah patahhaih lok thuih koehhaih to anih khaeah dueng o.
Then his disciples asked him, “What does this parable mean?”
10 Anih mah, Sithaw mah siangpahrang ah ukhaih prae tamqu lok panoekhaih to nangcae khaeah paek boeh: toe kalah kaminawk khaeah loe patahhaih lok hoiah thuih han ih ni paek; Nihcae loe khen o cadoeh hnu o mak ai, thaih o cadoeh panoek o mak ai, tiah a naa.
He said, “To you it is given to know the mysteries of God’s Kingdom, but to the rest it is given in parables, that ‘seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.’
11 Patahhaih lok thuih koehhaih loe hae tiah oh: aantii loe Sithaw lok to ni.
“Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
12 Loklam ah krah aantii loe tamthanglok hoih thaih kami ah oh o, toe nihcae mah lok to tang o ueloe, pahlonghaih hnu o moeng tih, tih pongah taqawk loe angzoh moe, nihcae palung thung ih lok to lak pae ving.
Those along the road are those who hear; then the devil comes and takes away the word from their heart, that they may not believe and be saved.
13 Thlung nuiah kakrah aantii loe lok to thaih o moe, anghoehaih hoiah talawk o roep; toe tangzun om ai, a tanghaih loe nawnetta thung khueah oh pongah, pacuekhaih tue phak naah amtimh ving kami thuih koehhaih ih ni.
Those on the rock are they who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; but these have no root. They believe for a while, then fall away in time of temptation.
14 Soekhring thungah kakrah aantii loe lok to thaih o, toe hae long nui khosak mawnhaih, angraenghaih hoi kanawm acaenghaihnawk mah lok to khuk khoep pongah, athaih athai ai kami to thuih koehhaih ih ni.
What fell among the thorns, these are those who have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life; and they bring no fruit to maturity.
15 Toe kahoih long nuiah kakrah aantii loe, lok to toenghaih palungthin, kahoih palungthin hoiah tahngai moe, pakuem kami, palungsawkhaih hoiah athaih athai kami to thuih koehhaih ih ni.
Those in the good ground, these are those who with an honest and good heart, having heard the word, hold it tightly, and produce fruit with perseverance.
16 Mi mah doeh hmaithawk paaang naah, takho hoiah khuk vai ai, to tih ai boeh loe iihkhun tlim ah suem vai ai; imthung ah akun kaminawk mah aanghaih hnuk o thai hanah, hmaithawk paaanghaih ahmuen ah ni a suek o.
“No one, when he has lit a lamp, covers it with a container or puts it under a bed; but puts it on a stand, that those who enter in may see the light.
17 Amtueng thai ai, tamquta ah kaom hmuen tidoeh om ai baktih toengah, amtueng ai, panoek han ai ah kanghawk, hmuen tidoeh om ai.
For nothing is hidden that will not be revealed, nor anything secret that will not be known and come to light.
18 To pongah kawbangmaw ka thaih thai han, tiah acoehaih hoiah lok to tahngai oh: mi kawbaktih doeh katawn kami loe paek aep tih; katawn ai kami loe ka tawnh boeh, tiah a poek ih hmuen to doeh la pae kik tih, tiah a naa.
Be careful therefore how you hear. For whoever has, to him will be given; and whoever doesn’t have, from him will be taken away even that which he thinks he has.”
19 Jesu ih amno hoi nawkamyanawk loe anih khaeah angzoh o, toe kami pop parai pongah anih khaeah caeh o thai ai.
His mother and brothers came to him, and they could not come near him for the crowd.
20 Thoemto kaminawk mah, nam no hoi nam nawkamyanawk mah nang hnuk han koeh o pongah, tasa bangah angdoet o, tiah a naa.
Some people told him, “Your mother and your brothers stand outside, desiring to see you.”
21 Anih mah nihcae khaeah, Sithaw lok tahngai moe, to tiah khosah kaminawk loe Kai ih amno hoi Kai ih nawkamya ah ni oh o, tiah a naa.
But he answered them, “My mother and my brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it.”
22 Nito naah, anih loe a hnukbang kaminawk hoi nawnto palong thungah caeh, Anih mah nihcae khaeah, Tui kangbuem yaeh ah caeh o si, tiah a naa. Nihcae loe to ah caeh o.
Now on one of those days, he entered into a boat, himself and his disciples, and he said to them, “Let’s go over to the other side of the lake.” So they launched out.
23 Toe a caeh o naah anih loe iih: tui kanguem a phak o naah takhi sae to song; palong thungah tui koi mong boeh pongah, nihcae loe raihaih tong o.
But as they sailed, he fell asleep. A wind storm came down on the lake, and they were taking on dangerous amounts of water.
24 A hnukbang kaminawk anih khaeah angzoh o moe, anih to palawt o, Angraeng, Angraeng, kang hmat o tom boeh, tiah a naa o.
They came to him and awoke him, saying, “Master, Master, we are dying!” He awoke and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water; then they ceased, and it was calm.
25 Anih mah a hnukbang kaminawk khaeah, Tanghaih naah maw na suek o? tiah a naa. Nihcae loe zit o moe, dawnraihaih hoiah oh o. Hae loe kawbaktih kami maw! Takhi hoi tui hanah lok a paek naah, a lok to tahngai pae o, tiah maeto hoi maeto a thuih o.
He said to them, “Where is your faith?” Being afraid, they marveled, saying to one another, “Who is this then, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him?”
26 Nihcae loe Kalili prae zaeh ah kaom, Gerasenes prae ah caeh o.
Then they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes, which is opposite Galilee.
27 Anih saoeng ah phak naah, to vangpui ah kaom saning sawk parai ah taqawk mah naeh ih kami maeto mah Jesu to hnuk. To kami loe laihaw angkhuk ai, im ah doeh om ai, taprong ah ni khosak.
When Jesus stepped ashore, a certain man out of the city who had demons for a long time met him. He wore no clothes, and didn’t live in a house, but in the tombs.
28 Anih mah Jesu to hnuk naah, anih khokkung ah amtimh, Kasang koek Sithaw Capa, Jesu, nang hoi kai timaw asaenghaih oh, kai hae na pacaekthlaek hmah, tahmenhaih kang hnik, tiah tha hoi a hangh.
When he saw Jesus, he cried out and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, “What do I have to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the Most High God? I beg you, don’t torment me!”
29 (Anih mah to kami ih takoh thung hoi tacawt hanah taqawk sae to lokpaek. To kami loe taqawk sae mah naeh tuektuek boeh: anih ih khok ban to sumqui hoiah pathlet pae o moe, sumboeng hoiah doeh thlongthuk o boeh; toe sumqui to taprawt pat pacoengah, taqawk mah anih to praezaek ah hoih ving.)
For Jesus was commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For the unclean spirit had often seized the man. He was kept under guard and bound with chains and fetters. Breaking the bonds apart, he was driven by the demon into the desert.
30 Jesu mah anih khaeah, Nang ih ahmin loe mi aa? tiah dueng. To naah anih mah, Takoh thungah taqawk oh mangh pongah, Legion, tiah a naa.
Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He said, “Legion,” for many demons had entered into him.
They begged him that he would not command them to go into the abyss. (Abyssos g12)
32 To ah pop parai ok pacahhaih ahmuen to oh: nihcae mah ok thung akun hanah anih khaeah hnik o. To naah Anih mah akunsak.
Now there was there a herd of many pigs feeding on the mountain, and they begged him that he would allow them to enter into those. Then he allowed them.
33 Taqawknawk loe kami takoh thung hoi tacawt o moe, ok takoh thungah akun o: to naah oknawk loe tui kangbuem ohhaih bangah cawnh o tathuk moe, tui uem o boih.
The demons came out of the man and entered into the pigs, and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned.
34 To tiah kaom hmuen to ok pacah kaminawk mah hnuk o naah, vangpui hoi vangta ah cawnh o moe, to tiah kaom hmuen kawng to a thuih o.
When those who fed them saw what had happened, they fled and told it in the city and in the country.
35 To tiah kaom hmuen to khet hanah kaminawk loe to ahmuen ah caeh o; Jesu khaeah a phak o naah, kahni angkhuk moe, poek kaciim ah Jesu khokkung ah anghnu, takoh thung hoi taqawk tacawt kami to a hnuk o; nihcae mah to kami to zit o.
People went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus and found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting at Jesus’ feet, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.
36 Hnu kaminawk boih mah taqawk mah naeh ih kami loe kawbangmaw ngantui let, tito kaminawk khaeah thuih pae o.
Those who saw it told them how he who had been possessed by demons was healed.
37 Gaderene prae taengah kaom paroeai kaminawk loe zit o pongah, nihcae caehtaak hanah Angraeng khaeah tahmenhaih hnik o: to pongah anih palong thungah akun moe, amlaem let.
All the people of the surrounding country of the Gadarenes asked him to depart from them, for they were very much afraid. Then he entered into the boat and returned.
38 Takoh thung hoi taqawk tacawt kami mah Angraeng hnuk bang hanah a hnik: toe Jesu mah anih to patoeh ving,
But the man from whom the demons had gone out begged him that he might go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying,
39 nangmah im ah amlaem ah loe, Sithaw mah kawkruk ah kalen hmuen maw na nuiah sak, tito patuek ah, tiah a naa.
“Return to your house, and declare what great things God has done for you.” He went his way, proclaiming throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done for him.
40 Jesu amlaem let naah, pop parai kaminawk mah anih to zing o, anih to oephaih hoiah talawk o.
When Jesus returned, the multitude welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him.
41 Khenah, Jairu, tiah ahmin kaom, Sineko ukkung maeto angzoh: anih loe Jesu khokkung ah tabok moe, anih im ah caeh pae hanah tahmenhaih a hnik:
Behold, a man named Jairus came. He was a ruler of the synagogue. He fell down at Jesus’ feet and begged him to come into his house,
42 saning hatlai hnetto kaom, maeto khue tawn ih a canu loe, ngannat moe duek duih. Anih loklam ah caeh naah, pop parai kaminawk anih khaeah amkhueng o.
for he had an only born daughter, about twelve years of age, and she was dying. But as he went, the multitudes pressed against him.
43 To naah saning hatlai hnetto athii kalong nongpata maeto oh, anih loe a tawnh ih hmuennawk to zawh boih moe, tuisi kop kami khaeah a caeh, toe mi mah doeh anih to ngantui o sak thai ai.
A woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years, who had spent all her living on physicians and could not be healed by any,
44 To nongpata loe anih hnuk ah caeh moe, anih ih kahni tom to sui: to naah kalong athii to dip roep.
came behind him and touched the fringe of his cloak. Immediately the flow of her blood stopped.
45 Jesu mah, Kai sui kami loe mi maw? tiah a naa. Kaminawk boih mah panoek ai, tiah a naa o. Piter hoi anih hoi nawnto kaom kaminawk mah, Angraeng, pop parai kaminawk mah nang ang et o moe, ang nuih o to loe, Kai sui kami loe mi maw? tiah na thuih, tiah a naa.
Jesus said, “Who touched me?” When all denied it, Peter and those with him said, “Master, the multitudes press and jostle you, and you say, ‘Who touched me?’”
46 Jesu mah, Kami maeto mah Kai ang sui: Kai khae hoi sakthaihaih tha tacawt boeh, tito ka panoek, tiah a naa.
But Jesus said, “Someone did touch me, for I perceived that power has gone out of me.”
47 Nongpata mah kang phat thai ai boeh, tiah panoek naah, tasoehhaih hoiah a caeh moe, a hmaa ah cangkrawn pacoengah, anih suihaih hoi ngan a tuihaih kawng to paroeai kaminawk hmaa ah taphong.
When the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling; and falling down before him declared to him in the presence of all the people the reason why she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately.
48 To pacoengah nongpata khaeah, Ka canu, na tanghaih mah ang hoihsak boeh: kamongah caeh lai ah, tiah a naa.
He said to her, “Daughter, cheer up. Your faith has made you well. Go in peace.”
49 Anih mah lokthuih li naah, Sineko ukkung Jairu im hoiah kami maeto angzoh moe, Na canu loe duek boeh; Patukkung to raihaih paek khing hmah lai ah, tiah a naa.
While he still spoke, one from the ruler of the synagogue’s house came, saying to him, “Your daughter is dead. Don’t trouble the Teacher.”
50 Jesu mah to lok to thaih naah, Jairu khaeah, Tasoeh hmah: tanghaih palung khue mah tawn ah, na canu loe ngantui let tih, tiah a naa.
But Jesus hearing it, answered him, “Don’t be afraid. Only believe, and she will be healed.”
51 Anih Jairu im ah phak naah loe Piter, Johan, Jakob hoi nongpata ih amno ampanawk khue ai ah loe, mi doeh imthung ah akunsak ai.
When he came to the house, he didn’t allow anyone to enter in, except Peter, John, James, the father of the child, and her mother.
52 Kaminawk boih anih hanah palungsethaih hoiah qah o haih: Anih mah, Qah o hmah; anih loe dueh ai, iih ni a iih, tiah a naa.
All were weeping and mourning her, but he said, “Don’t weep. She isn’t dead, but sleeping.”
53 Nongpata loe duek boeh, tiah nihcae mah panoek o pognah, Anih to pahnui o thuih.
They were ridiculing him, knowing that she was dead.
54 Anih loe to ah kaom kaminawk to tasa bangah tacawtsak boih moe, nongpata ih ban to patawnh pae, Nongpata ta, angthawk ah, tiah a naa.
But he put them all outside, and taking her by the hand, he called, saying, “Child, arise!”
55 To naah anih ih pakhra amlaem let moe, angthawk roep: nongpata to caaknaek paek o hanah Jesu mah thuih pae.
Her spirit returned, and she rose up immediately. He commanded that something be given to her to eat.
56 Nongpata ih amno hoi ampa loe paroeai dawnrai hoi: toe to tiah kaom hmuen to mi khaeah doeh thuih han ai ah lok a paek.
Her parents were amazed, but he commanded them to tell no one what had been done.
