Luka 11
1 Amah a om vaengah a tue a pha tih hmuen pakhat ah thangthui. A thangthui bawt ah, a hnukbang pakhat loh Jesuh taengah, “Boeipa, kaimih he thangthui ham n'thuituen lah, Johan long khaw a hnukbang rhoek te a thuituen van,” a ti nah.
And it came to pass, as he was in a certain place praying, that when he ceased one of his disciples said to him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John taught his disciples.
2 Te dongah amih te, “Na thangthui uh vaengah, 'A pa na ming tah ciim pai saeh, na ram pai saeh.
And he said to them, When ye pray, say, Father, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come;
3 Khohhnin rhamhnin kaimih kah buh he amah khohnin ah kaimih m'pae lah.
give us day by day our daily bread;
4 Kaimih kah tholhnah soah kaimih he n'hlah lah, kaimih khaw kaimih taengah laiaka ba boeih te ka hlah uh van dongah. Cuekhalhnah khuila kaimih n'khuen boeh, 'ti uh,” a ti nah.
and forgive us our sins, for even we ourselves forgive every one that is indebted to us; and lead us not into temptation.
5 Te phoeiah amih te, “Nangmih khuikah pakhat loh paya a khueh tih, ihdulh ah anih taengla cet mai ni. Te vaengah anih te, 'Ka paya, vaidam pa thum ah kai m'pu dae.
And he said to them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go to him at midnight, and say to him Friend, lend me three loaves;
6 Ka paya yin lamkah kai taengla ha pawk tih, anih ham ka tawn pah khaw ka khueh pawh,’ a ti nah.
for a friend of mine hath come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him?
7 Te long khaw a khuiah a doo tih, 'Thakthaenah nen khaw kai n'toeh boeh. Thohka a khaih coeng, ka taengkah ka ca rhoek khaw ihnah dongla om uh coeng, nang paek ham ka tho thai mahpawh,’ a ti nah ni.
And he from within shall answer and say, Trouble me not; the door is now shut, and I and my children are in bed; I cannot rise and give thee.
8 Nangmih taengah ka thui, anih te a paya la a om dongah thoo cakhaw pae mai mahpawh. Tedae a paya te a calaak coeng atah thoo vetih a kuek yet te a paek ni.
I say to you, though he will not rise and give him because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as he needeth.
9 Nangmih taengah ka thui, Bih uh lamtah, nangmih tem'paek bitni, toem uh lamtah na hmuh uh bitni, khoek uh lamtah nangmih ham a ong binit.
And I say to you, Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and ye will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you.
10 Aka bih loh boeih a dang tih, aka toem loh a hmuh dongah aka khoek ham khaw a ong pah ni.
For every one that asketh, receiveth; and he that seeketh, findeth; and to him that knocketh, the door will be opened.
11 Nangmih khuikah napa pakhat te a ca loh nga a hoe vaengah, nga yueng la rhul a doe aya?
And what father is there, among you, who, if his son ask for bread, will give him a stone? or if he ask for a fish, will instead of a fish give him a serpent?
12 Aiduei hoe koinih a ca te saelkhui-ta-ai a paek aya?
or, if he ask for an egg, will give him a scorpion?
13 Te dongah nangmih a thae la aka om long pataeng, na ca rhoek te kutdoe then paek ham na ming uh atah, vaan lamkah pa loh muep a ming ngai dongah amah aka dawt rhoek te tah Mueihla Cim a paek ni,” a ti nah.
If ye then, though evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!
14 Rhaithae om tih a haek hatah olmueh la ana poeh pah. Te dongah rhaithae te vawl a caeh daengah olmueh te koep cal tih hlangping khaw a ngaihmang.
And he was casting out a demon, and it was dumb; and it came to pass, when the demon had gone out, that the dumb man spoke. And the multitudes wondered.
15 Tedae amih khuikah hlangvang loh, “Rhaithae boei Beelzebul rhangnen ni rhaithae a haek,” a ti uh.
But some of them said, He casteth out the demons through Beelzebul, the prince of the demons;
16 A tloe rhoek loh a noemcai uh tih vaan lamkah miknoek te anih taengah a toem uh.
and others, to make trial of him, asked of him a sign from heaven.
17 Tedae amah loh amih kah kopoek te a ming dongah amih te, “Ram boeih he amah a paekboe atah poci tih, imkhui loh imkhui a paekboe thil atah cungku.
But he, knowing their thoughts, said to them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and house divided against house falleth.
18 Satan khaw amah neh amah paekboe uh koinih, metlam lae a ram a pai eh? Kai loh Beelzebul rhangneh rhaithae a haek na ti uh.
And if Satan also be divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? For ye say that I cast out the demons through Beelzebul.
19 Tedae Beelzebul rhangneh rhaithae te ka haek koinih, na ca rhoek long tah u rhangnen lae a haekuh. Te dongah amih te nangmih soah laitloekkung la om uh ni.
But if I cast out the demons through Beelzebul, through whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore shall they be judges of you.
20 Tedae Pathen kah kutdawn neh rhaithae te ka haek koinih, nangmih soah Pathen kah ram ha pai coeng.
But if I cast out the demons through the finger of God, then hath the kingdom of God already come to you.
21 Khangmai la aka nuet uh long ni a vongup te a hung tih a khuehtawn loh ngaimong la om van.
When a strong man armed guardeth his palace, his goods are in peace;
22 Tedae anih lakah aka tlung ngai ha pawk vaengah tah anih te a noeng. Te vaengah a pangtung thil lungpok haica te a rhawt pah tih, a kutbuem a poelyoe pah.
but when one stronger than he cometh upon him and overcometh him, he taketh from him his whole armor wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils.
23 Kai taengah aka om pawt tah kai aka koek ni. Kai taengah aka coi pawt loh a thaek.
He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth abroad.
24 Mueihla thae tah hlang taeng lamkah a nong vaengah tuihang hmuen te a hil tih duemnah a tlap. Tedae hmuen a hmuh pawt vaengah, “Ka nong tak tangtae kamah im la ka mael ni,' a ti.
When the unclean spirit is gone out from a man, it goeth through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, it saith, I will return to my house whence I came out.
25 Ha pawk vaengah, im te nawt tangtae neh a khoem la a hmuh
And on coming, it findeth it swept and put in order.
26 Te dongah cet tih amah lakah aka thae mueihla tloe parhih te a khuen. Te phoeiah a kun puei tih pahoi a om puei dongah tekah hlang kah a hnukkhueng tah lamhma kah lakah a thae la om,” a ti nah.
Then it goeth, and taketh with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they enter in, and dwell there; and the last state of that man becometh worse than the first.
27 Te a thui vaengah hlangping khui lamkah huta pakhat loh ol a huel tih Jesuh te, “Nang aka yom bung neh aka cun rhang suk tah a yoethen,” a ti nah.
And it came to pass, as he was saying these things, that a certain woman lifted up her voice from the crowd, and said to him, Blessed is the womb that bore thee, and the breasts from which thou drewest nourishment.
28 Tedae Jesuh loh, “Pathen ol aka ya tih aka tuem rhoek tah a yoethen ngai,” a ti nah.
But he said, Blessed rather are they that hear the word of God and keep it.
29 Hlangping he a khawk vaengah a tong tih, “Tahae kah cadil tah rhaithae cadil ni, Miknoek te a toem uh dae Jonah kah miknoek pawt atah miknoek pae mahpawh.
And when the crowds were thronging about him, he began to say, This generation is a wicked generation; it seeketh a sign; and no sign will be given it, but the sign of Jonah.
30 Jonah tah Nineveh ham miknoek la a om vanbangla, hlang capa khaw tahae kah cadil taengah om van ni.
For as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so will also the Son of man be to this generation.
31 Tahae cadil hlang rhoek taengkah laitloeknah ah tuithim manghainu te thoo vetih amih te a boe sak ni. Anih tah Solomon kah cueihnah hnatun ham diklai khobawt lamkah ha pawk. He ah he Solomon lakah aka khuet om ta he.
The queen of the south will rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation, and will condemn them; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and lo! something more than Solomon is here.
32 Ninevi hlang rhoek loh tahae cadil kah laitloeknah te a pai uh thil vetih a boe sak ni. Jonah kah olhoe neh a yut uh atah, he ah aka om he Jonah lakah khuet dae ta he.
The men of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and lo! something more than Jonah is here.
33 Hmaiim a tok te tanhnaem ah khueh pawt tih voh khuiah khaw a muek moenih. Tedae aka kun rhoek loh vangnah hmu van saeh tila hmaitung soah ni a khueh.
No one when he has lighted a lamp, puts it into a secret place, or under the bushel, but on the lamp-stand, that they who come in may see the light.
34 Na mik tah na pum kah hmaiim ni. Na mik loh cilrhik la a om vaengah na pum boeih te cilping la om van. Tedae a thae la a om vaengah na pum tah hmuep van.
The lamp of the body is thine eye. When thine eye is clear, thy whole body also is in the light; but when it is disordered, thy body also is in darkness.
35 Te dongah ngaithuen, na khuikah vangnah te yinnah la poeh ve.
Take heed therefore, that the light which is within thee be not darkness.
36 Te dongah na pum te boeih vang tih cungvang ah a hmuep pakhat khaw a om pawt atah, hmaiim loh a aa neh nang n'tue vaengkah bangla phaeng aka vang la om ni,” a ti nah.
If then thy whole body is enlightened, having no part dark, the whole will be as fully enlightened, as when a lamp with its bright shining giveth thee light.
37 A thui vaengah, Pharisee loh a taengah buh ca la anih te a cael dongah kun tih a ngol puei.
And when he had done speaking, a Pharisee asked him to dine with him. And he went in and reclined at the table.
38 Buh kungah khut a nuem lamhma pawt te Pharisee loh a hmuh tih a ngaihmang.
And the Pharisee, seeing it, wondered that he did not bathe before dinner.
39 Tedae Boeipa loh anih te, “Nangmih Pharisee rhoek loh boengloeng neh baelpuei kah a hmanhu tah na cil na poe coeng. Tedae na khuiah halhkanah neh halangnah ni aka bae.
But the Lord said to him, Now ye Pharisees cleanse the outside of the cup and the platter; but your inside is full of rapacity and wickedness.
40 Hlang ang rhoek! a sohman ah aka saii loh a khui te khaw a saii moenih a?
Fools, did not he who made the outside, make the inside also?
41 Tedae a khuikah aka om te doedannah la pae uh lamtah, nangmih ham boeih caih ni.
But give what they contain in alms, and lo! all is clean to you.
42 Anunae nangmih Pharisee rhoek! Sungii, sungsing neh toian boeih tah na paek uh dae Pathen kah tiktamnah neh lungnah tah na hnalvaluh. Saii hamla a kuek te dalrha uh tak boeh.
But woe to you Pharisees! for ye pay tithes of the mint, and the rue, and every herb; and pass by justice and the love of God. These ought ye to have done, and not to leave those undone.
43 Anunae nangmih Pharisee rhoek te! tunim kah ngolhmuen then neh hnoyoih hmuen kah toidalnah ni na lungnah uh.
Woe to you Pharisees! for ye love the chief seats in the synagogues, and salutations in the markets.
44 Anunae nangmih aih te, hlan bangla lumrhilumrha la na om uh dongah a sokah aka pongpa hlang loh ming pawh,” a ti nah.
Woe to you, for ye are as tombs which are unseen, and men walking over them know it not.
45 Olming pakhat loh Jesuh te a doo tih, “Saya, na thui te kaimih ni nan neet,” a ti nah.
And one of the lawyers answering saith to him, Teacher, in saying these things, thou revilest us also.
46 Tedae Jesuh loh, “Nangmih olming rhoek khaw anunae, hlang rhoek te hnophueih neh phueihtloel la na nan uh tih, namamih tah na kutdawn pakhat nen khaw hnophueih te na ben uh pawh.
And he said, To you lawyers also, woe! for ye load men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers.
47 Anunae nangmih aih, tonghma rhoek kah phuel te na sak uh dae na pa rhoek long ni amih te a ngawn.
Woe to you! for ye build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.
48 Na pa rhoek kah a khuui la na om uh van dongah a khoboe te na rhoihuh. Tonghma rhoek te amih loh a ngawn tih nangmih loh phuel im na sak pa uh.
So then ye bear witness to and approve the deeds of your fathers; for they indeed killed them, and ye are building [[their tombs]].
49 Te dongah Pathen kah cueihnah long khaw, “Amih taengah tonghma rhoek neh caeltueih rhoek te ka tueih van vaengah, amih te a ngawn uh vetih a hnaemtaek bitni,” a ti.
Therefore the wisdom of God also said, I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they will kill and persecute;
50 Te dongah Diklai a tongnah lamkah tahae cadil rhoek loh a long sak tonghma rhoek kah a thii phu te boeih suk nawn saeh.
that the blood of all the prophets, which hath been shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;
51 Abel thii lamloh Zekhariah thii duela hmueihtuk neh im laklo ah ni a poci. Ue ta, nangmih taengah ka thui, tahae kah cadil taengah a suk bitni.
from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who was slain between the altar and the temple. Yea, I tell you, it will be required of this generation.
52 Anunae nangmih olming rhoek te, mingnah cabi na pom lalah namamih khaw na kun uh pawt tih aka kun rhoek te na kang uh,” a ti nah.
Woe to you lawyers! because ye have taken away the key of knowledge; ye have not entered yourselves, and those who were entering ye have hindered.
53 Te lamkah loh Jesuh vawl a nong phoeiah tah cadaek rhoek neh Pharisee rhoek loh mat a hmuhuet uh tih anih kawng te muep a cawh uh.
And as he came out thence, the scribes and the Pharisees began to be very spiteful, and to press him to speak off hand about many things,
54 A ka lamkah ol khat khat neh tangkhuep ham amah te a rhongngol uh.
lying in wait to catch something out of his mouth.
