Luka 4
1 Jesuh tah Jordan lamloh Mueihla Cim a baetawt la mael tih Mueihla loh khosoek la a khuen.
Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan River and was led by the Spirit into the desert,
2 Rhaithae loh khohnin sawmli a noemcai. Tekah khohnin vaengah caak pakhat khaw a caak kolla bungpong neh a thok sak.
where he was tempted by the devil for forty days. He didn't eat anything during that whole time, so at the end he was starving.
3 Te vaengah anih te rhaithae loh, “Pathen capa la na om atah, lungto he voek lamtah buh la poeh saeh,” a ti nah.
The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.”
4 Te dongah anih te Jesuh loh, “'Hlang long he buh bueng neh hing boel saeh, 'tila a daek coeng ta,” a ti nah.
“It is written in Scripture, ‘You shall not live on bread alone,’” Jesus answered.
5 Te phoeiah anih te a khuen tih a tue kolkalh rhuet ah lunglai kah ram rhoek te boeih a tueng.
The devil led him up to a high place, and in a rapid view showed him all the kingdoms of the world.
6 Te vaengah anih te rhaithae loh, “Hekah saithainah boeih neh a thangpomnah he nang kam pae eh?, kai taengah m'paek coeng dongah ka ngaih te tah ka paek mai.
Then the devil said to Jesus, “I will give you authority over all of them, and their glory. This authority has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want.
7 Te dongah, nang khaw kai taengah na bakop atah nang hamla boeih om bitni,” a ti nah.
Bow down and worship me and you can have it all.”
8 Tedae Jesuh loh anih te a doo tih, “A daek tangtae coeng ni, BOEIPA na Pathen mah bawk lamtah amah bueng mah thothueng,” a ti nah.
“It is written in Scripture, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve only him,’” Jesus replied.
9 Te phoeiah anih te Jerusalem la a khuen tih bawkim kah tlungsoi ah a pai sak. Te vaengah anih te, “Pathen capa la na om atah, he lamloh namah te cungpung thuk.
The devil took Jesus to Jerusalem, set him on the top of the Temple, and told him, “If you are the Son of God, then jump!
10 A daek tangtae vanbangla amah kah puencawn rhoek te nang aka khoem ham namah yueng a uen bitni.
For it is written in Scripture, ‘He will order his angels to care for you,
11 Na kho te lungto dongah na tongtah ve a ti dongah nang te a kut neh n'dom uh bitni,” a ti nah.
holding you up to protect you from stumbling over a stone.’”
12 Tedae anih Jesuh loh a doo tih, “A thui coeng te ta, BOEIPA na Pathen te noemcai boeh,” a ti nah.
“It is written in Scripture, ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God,’” Jesus replied.
13 Rhaithae loh a noemcainah te boeih a soep coeng dongah a tuetang a pha hlan duela anih taeng lamloh nong.
When the devil had completed all his temptations, he waited for another opportunity.
14 Jesuh tah Mueihla kah thaomnah neh Galilee la mael. Te vaengah anih kah olthang te te rhoek pingpang tom ah cet.
Jesus returned to Galilee, full of the Spirit's power. News about him spread everywhere.
15 Amamih kah tunim ah khaw a thuituen tih hlang boeih loh a thangpom.
Jesus taught in their synagogues, and everyone praised him.
16 Te phoeiah aka khut a om nah Nazareth la pawk. Tedae a sainoek bangla Sabbath hnin ah tunim khuila kun tih ca tae hamla pai.
When he arrived in Nazareth, where he had grown up, he went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day as usual.
17 Te vaengah anih te tonghma Isaiah kah cabu te a doe uh. Cabu te a hlam vaengah tekah hmuen ah a daek tangtae aka om te a hmuh;
The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Jesus unrolled the scroll and found the place where it's written:
18 BOEIPA Mueihla loh kai n'om thil tih khodaeng te olthangthen phong pah ham kai ng'koelh coeng. Hlangsol taengah khodawkngainah, mikdael taengah khoval te hoe pah ham, a haemtaek rhoek te khodawkngainah khuila tueih ham,
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, for he has anointed me to announce good news to the destitute. He has sent me to proclaim that prisoners will be released, the blind will see, the oppressed will be freed,
19 BOEIPA kah kum uem om te hoe ham kai n'tueih coeng.
and to proclaim the time of the Lord's favor.”
20 Cabu te a awn tih tueihyoeih taengla a mael phoeiah ngol. Te dongah tunim ah aka om rhoek kah a mik loh anih te boeih a hmaitang uh.
He rolled up the scroll and gave it back to the attendant. Then he sat down. Everybody in the synagogue was staring at him.
21 Te dongah amih te, “Tihnin ah olcim he nangmih hna khuiah soep coeng,” pahoi a ti nah.
“This Scripture you've just heard has been fulfilled today!” he told them.
22 Te vaengah anih te boeih a oep uh tih a ka lamkah aka thoeng lungvatnah olka dongah a ngaihmang uh. Te dongah, “Joseph capa moenih a he?,” a ti uh.
Everybody expressed their approval of him, amazed at the gracious words that came from his lips. “Isn't this Joseph's son?” they wondered.
23 Te dongah amih te, “Siboei la, 'Namah mah hoeih vaikhai,’ a ti, nuettahnah he kai taengah na thui uh tangkhuet. Kapernaum ah aka om te boeih ka yaak uh coeng, he khaw namah tolrhum ah saii,’ na ti uh.
Jesus replied, “I'm sure you'll repeat this proverb to me, ‘Physician, heal yourself!’ and ask, ‘Why don't you do here in your own hometown what we heard you did in Capernaum?’
24 Tedae nangmih taengah rhep ka thui, Amah tolrhum ah a uem uh tonghma a om moenih.
But I tell you the truth, no prophet is accepted in his hometown.
25 Nangmih te oltak ni kan thui. Elijah tue vaengah Israel khuiah nuhmai muep om. Te vaengah vaan ke kum thum hla rhuk a khaih tih, khokha loh diklai pum ah muep om.
I guarantee that there were many widows in Israel during the time of Elijah when there was a drought for three and a half years, causing a great famine throughout the country.
26 Te vaengah Sidoni Zarephath kah nuhmai nu taeng pawt atah amih taengla Elijah a tueih moenih.
Yet Elijah wasn't sent to any of them. He was sent to a widow in Zarephath in the region of Sidon!
27 Tonghma Elisha tue vaengah Israel khuiah hmaibae muep om dae, Syria Naaman pawt atah amih a cing pah moenih,” a ti nah.
Even though there were many lepers in Israel in the time of Elisha, the only one who was healed was Naaman the Syrian!”
28 Te rhoek te a yaak uh vaengah tunim khuikah rhoek tah a thinsanah neh boeih hah uh.
When they heard this everyone in the synagogue became furious.
29 Te dongah thoo uh tih Jesuh te kho voel la a haek uh. Anih te tulh ham amamih kah a sak khopuei tlang kah pango la a khuen uh.
They jumped to their feet and threw him out of the town. Then they dragged him to the top of the hill on which the town was built in order to throw him off the cliff.
30 Tedae amih te a laklung ah a va tih cet.
But he walked right through them and went on his way.
31 Te phoeiah Galilee khopuei, Kapernaum la suntla thuk tih, Sabbath vaengah amih aka thuituen la pahoi om.
Jesus went down to Capernaum, a town in Galilee. On Sabbath he started teaching them.
32 A ol tah saithainah neh a om dongah a thuituennah te a ngaihmang uh.
They were amazed at what he taught them for he spoke with authority.
33 Te vaengah rhaithae kah rhalawt mueihla aka kaem hlang te tunim khuiah om tih ol ue la pang.
In the synagogue there was a man who was possessed by a demon. He cried out,
34 “Aya! Nazareth Jesuh, nang taeng neh kaimih taengah balae aka om? Kaimih aka poci sak ham nim na pawk? Nang te kan ming ta, Pathen kah hlangcim la na om ta,” a ti.
“So, what do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: God's Holy One!”
35 Tedae anih te Jesuh loh a ho tih, “Paa lamtah anih lamloh cet,” a ti nah. Te dongah anih te rhaithae loh a laklung la a voeih tih a tloh kolla anih te a caeh tak.
Jesus interrupted him, saying. “Be quiet!” Then he ordered the demon, “Come out of him!” Throwing him to the ground right before them, the demon left the man without injuring him.
36 Te vaengah ngaihmangnah loh boeih a thoeng thil uh. Te dongah khat neh khat te voek uh tih, “Mebang olka nim he, saithainah neh a thaomnah dongah rhalawt mueihla rhoek a tueih tih, a caeh uh mai he,” a ti uh.
They were all amazed and asked each other, “What is this teaching? With power and authority he orders evil spirits to leave—and they do!”
37 Te dongah Jesuh kah olhum tah te rhoekg pingpang kah a hmuen boeih la pawk.
News about Jesus spread throughout the nearby region.
38 Tunim lamloh thoo tih Simon im la kun. Te vaengah Simon masae te satloh om tih a nan malcal. Te dongah anih kongah Jesuh te a dawt uh.
Leaving the synagogue, Jesus went to Simon's house. Simon's mother-in-law was sick with a high fever and those who were there asked Jesus to help.
39 Anih te a pai thil tih tloh te a ho daengah anih te tloh loh a hlah. Te dongah pahoi thoo tih amih te a kok.
Jesus went and stood over her. He told the fever to leave her—which it did. She got up right away and prepared a meal for them.
40 Khomik a tlak vaengah tlohtat cungkuem neh tattloel la aka om boeih te Jesuh taengla a khuen uh. Amih pakhat rhip te kut a tloeng thil tih amih te a hoeih sak.
When the sun set, they brought to him all who were sick, suffering from various diseases. Jesus placed his hands on them, one after the other, and he healed them.
41 A yet taeng lamkah rhaithae rhoek khaw nong uh. Te phoeiah pang uh tih, “Nang tah Pathen capa ni,” a ti nah. Anih te Khrih ni tila a ming uh dongah amih te a ho tih thui sak voel pawh.
Demons came out of many people, shouting, “You are the Son of God.” But Jesus stopped them and refused to let them speak because they knew he was the Christ.
42 Khothaih a pha vaengah khoe uh tih khosoek hmuen te a paan. Tedae hlangping loh anih te a toem uh tih anih te a paan uh. Te phoeiah amih taeng lamkah a nong pawt ham Jesuh te a tuuk uh.
Early the following morning Jesus left to find some peace and quiet. But the crowds went out looking for him, and finally found him. They tried to stop him leaving because they did not want him to go.
43 Tedae amih te, “Pathen kah ram te kho tloe rhoek taengah khaw ka thui ham a kuek dongah ni n'tueih,” a ti nah.
But he told them, “I have to go to other towns to tell them the good news of the kingdom of God too, because that is what I was sent to do.”
44 Te dongah Judea ah om tih tunim ah olthangthen a hoe.
So Jesus went on traveling around, teaching the good news in the synagogues of Judea.
