1 Pathen Capa Jesuh Khrih kah olthangthen a tongnah.
The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
2 Tonghma Isaiah dongah a daek tangtae bangla, “Nang hmai ah kamah kah puencawn kan tueih ne, anih loh na longpuei te a rhoekbah ni.
As it is written in the Prophets, “Behold, I am sending my messenger ahead of yoʋ, who will prepare yoʋr way before yoʋ,
3 Khosoek ah pang ol loh, “Boeipa kah longpuei te rhoekbah uh'a caehlong te a dueng la saii uh,” a ti.
the voice of one crying out in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way for the Lord; make his paths straight,’”
4 Johan tah khosoek ah aka nuem la om tih tholh khodawkngainah dongah yutnah baptisma a kawng thui.
John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.
5 Te dongah Judah kho boeih neh Jerusalem pum loh anih taengla khong uh. Te vaengah a tholhnah te a phong uh tih Jordan tuiva ah Johan loh a nuem.
The whole Judean countryside was going out to him, and so were the people of Jerusalem. They were all being baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins.
6 Te vaengah aka om Johan loh kalauk mul a bai tih, a pumpu ah maehpho cihin a naak tih tangboeng neh kohong khoitui te a caak.
Now John was clothed with camel's hair and wore a leather belt around his waist; he ate locusts and wild honey.
7 A hoe vaengah, “Kai lakah aka len tah kai hnukah ha pawk. A taengah ka buluk tih a khokhom rhui hlam ham pataeng ka koih pawh.
He proclaimed, “After me comes one who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie.
8 Kai loh nangmih te tui ah kan nuem, dae anih long tah nangmih te Mueihla Cim ah n'nuem ni,” a ti.
I have baptized you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
9 Tekah khohnin a pha vaengah Jesuh khaw Galilee kah Nazareth lamkah halo tih, Jordan ah Johan loh a nuem.
In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
10 Tui khui lamkah koe a thoh vaengah vaan te ong uh tih Mueihla te vahu bangla a soah a rhum te a hmuh.
Immediately as he was coming up from the water, he saw the heavens being split apart and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.
11 Te vaengah vaan lamkah ol ha thoeng tih, “Nang tah Capa ka thintlo la na om, nang taengah ka lungtlun,” a ti.
Then a voice came from heaven: “Yoʋ are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
12 Te phoeiah anih te Mueihla loh khosoek la thaeng a khuen.
Immediately the Spirit drove him out into the wilderness,
13 Khosoek ah khohnin sawmli a om vaengah Satan loh a cuek. Te vaengah satlung taengah khaw om dae anih te puencawn rhoek loh a khut uh.
and he was there in the wilderness for forty days, being tempted by Satan. He was with the wild beasts, and the angels ministered to him.
14 Tedae Johan te a voeih uh phoeiah Jesuh tah Galilee la pawk. Te vaengah Pathen kah olthangthen te a hoe.
After John was put in prison, Jesus went to Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God
15 Te vaengah, “A tue te soep coeng tih Pathen ram tah yoei coeng, yut uh lamtah olthangthen te tangnah uh laeh,” a ti.
and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has drawn near. Repent and believe in the gospel.”
16 Tedae Galilee tuili kaengah a caeh vaengah, Simon neh Simon mana Andrew tah tuihoi la om rhoi tih tuili ah lawk ana voeih rhoi te a hmuh.
As Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother (that is, Simon's brother) casting a net in the sea, for they were fishermen.
17 Te dongah Jesuh loh amih rhoi te, “Kai hnukah bang rhoi lamtah nangmih rhoi te hlang aka tu tuihoi la om ham kang khueh eh?,” a ti nah.
Jesus said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.”
18 Te dongah lawk na te pak a hlah rhoi tih Jesuh te a vai rhoi.
So they immediately left their nets and followed him.
19 Tedae hawt a caeh vaengah Zebedee capa James neh a mana Johan te a hmuh. Te vaengah amih rhoi te lawng khuiah lawk a bo rhoi.
Going on a little farther from there, he saw James the son of Zebedee and John his brother as they were in the boat mending their nets.
20 Te dongah amih rhoi te pahoi a khue hatah a napa Zebedee neh lawng khuiah a kutloh rhoek te pak a hlah tih amah hnukah cet rhoi.
Immediately he called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men and followed him.
21 Kapernaum la a kun uh vaengkah Sabbath ah tah tunim la tlek kun tih a thuituen.
They went to Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath Jesus went into the synagogue and began teaching.
22 Te vaengah anih kah thuituennah soah let uh. Amih a thuituen te saithainah aka khueh la om tih cadaek rhoek bangla om pawh.
The people were astonished at his teaching, because he was teaching them as one who had authority, and not as the scribes.
23 Amih kah tunim ah hlang pakhat tah mueihla thae neh lawt om.
Now in their synagogue there was a man possessed by an unclean spirit. He cried out,
24 Te vaengah pang tih, “Nazareth Jesuh kaimih neh nang te mebang tloe lae? Kaimih he poci sak ham nim na pawk? Nang unim ti khaw kam ming ta, Pathen kah hlangcim la,” a ti nah.
“Leave us alone! What do yoʋ have to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have yoʋ come to destroy us? I know who yoʋ are—the Holy One of God.”
25 Tedae Jesuh loh anih te a ho tih, “Paa lamtah anih lamloh cet laeh,” a ti nah.
But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent, and come out of him!”
26 Te vaengah mueihla thae loh anih te a suvaih sak. Te phoeiah ol a len la pang tih anih lamloh coe.
So the unclean spirit convulsed the man and came out of him, crying out with a loud voice.
27 Te vaengah boeih a ngaihmang uh. Te dongah amamih te oelh uh thae tih, “Metlam nim he? Saithainah neh thuituennah a thai loh, mueihla thae rhoek pataeng a tueih vaengah a ol a ngai uh,” a ti uh.
All the people were amazed so that they questioned among themselves, saying, “What is this? What new teaching is this that with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him?”
28 Te dongah a olthang tah Galilee pingpang khotomrhali boeih ah cet khonghak.
And the news about him immediately spread throughout all the surrounding region of Galilee.
29 Te phoeiah tunim lamloh tlek cet uh tih James neh Johan khaw, Simon neh Andrew im la pawk uh.
After leaving the synagogue, they immediately went to the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
30 Tedae Simon masae tah tlo tih yalh. Te dongah anih ham te Jesuh taengah tlek a thui uh.
Now Simon's mother-in-law lay sick with a fever, and they immediately told Jesus about her.
31 Te dongah a paan tih a kut te a tuuk pah. Anih te a thoh vaengah anih te satloh loh a hlah tih amih te a kok.
So he went over to her and raised her up, taking hold of her hand. Immediately the fever left her, and she began to serve them.
32 Hlaem a pha tih khomik a tlak vaengah tloh aka khueh rhoek neh rhaithae aka kaem boeih te Jesuh taengla a khuen uh.
When evening came, after the sun had set, they brought to Jesus all who were sick and those who were possessed by demons.
33 Te vaengah kho pum ah aka om te thohka ah tingtun uh.
The whole city was gathered together at the door,
34 Te phoeiah tlohtat soeprhep aka khueh hlangtlo muep a hoeih sak. Rhaithae khaw muep a haek. Tedae amah te aming uh dongah rhaithae rhoek te cal sak pawh.
and he healed many who were sick with various diseases. He also cast out many demons, but he would not allow the demons to speak, because they knew who he was.
35 Tedae khohmuep aih. ah yueya thoo tih aka nong te khosoek hmuen la cet tih thangthui.
Early the next morning, while it was still very dark, Jesus rose and departed. He went off to a desolate place and prayed there.
36 Te vaengah Simon neh a taengkah rhoek loh Jesuh hnuk a dawn uh.
Simon and his companions searched diligently for him,
37 Tedae Jesuh te a hmuh uh vaengah a taengah, “Nang te boeih n'toem,” a ti na uh.
and when they found him, they said to him, “Everyone is looking for yoʋ.”
38 Te vaengah amih te, “Kho om nah takuem ah cet uh sih lamtah, teah khawka hoeeh. Te hamni ka lo rhoe,” a ti nah.
Jesus said to them, “Let us go into the neighboring towns so that I may preach there also, for that is why I have come.”
39 Te dongah Galilee pum ah cet tih amih kah tunim ah olthangthen a hoe phoeiah rhaithae te a vai.
So he was preaching in their synagogues in all of Galilee and casting out demons.
40 Te vaengah, hmaibae pakhat tah anih taengah pawk tih a hloep phoeiah a cungkueng thil. Te phoeiah Jesuh te, “Boeipa na ngaih koinih kai he nan cim sak thai ni,” a ti nah.
Then a leper came up and knelt before him, begging him, “If yoʋ are willing, yoʋ can make me clean.”
41 Te vaengah a thinphat tih a kut te a yueng. Anih te a taek tih, “Ka ngaih ta, cim saeh,” a ti nah.
Moved with compassion, Jesus stretched out his hand, touched the man, and said to him, “I am willing; be made clean.”
42 Te vaengah hmaibae tah anih lamloh pahoi nong tih cim.
When he said this, the leprosy immediately departed from the man, and he was made clean.
43 Te phoeiah thanueih ah anih te tlek a tueih.
Then Jesus sternly warned him and immediately sent him away,
44 Tedae anih te, “Na thui loeng loeng pawt ham ngaithuen. Namah cet lamtah khosoih na tueng phoeiah na cimcaihnah dongah Moses loh a uen te tah nawn pah. Te tew amih taengah paipueinah la om saeh,” a ti nah.
saying to him, “Be sure not to say anything to anyone, but go show yoʋrself to the priest and offer for yoʋr cleansing what Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”
45 Tedae a caeh neh a tong tih pung a hoe dongah ol te yilhcet. Te dongah Jesuh tah kho khuiah loloh kun thai voel pawh. Te phoeiah tah khosoek hmuen ah vawl om dae anih te a taengvai lamloh a paan uh.
But the man went out and began to proclaim it widely and to spread the news, so that Jesus could no longer openly enter a town, but was out in desolate places. Yet people were coming to him from everywhere.
