Marku 8
1 Te khohnin ah hlangping te hut koep om tih caak koi ba khaw khueh uh pawh.
IN those days the multitude being exceedingly great, and having nothing to eat, Jesus calling his disciples to him, said unto them,
2 Hnukbang rhoek te a khue tih, “Kai taengah hnin thum rhaeh uh coeng tih caak bakhaw a khueh uh voel pawt dongah he hlangping ham ka thinphat.
I have compassion on the multitude, for they have stayed with me already three days, and have nothing to eat:
3 Te dongah a im ah buhmueh rhathih la amih ka tueih koinih longpueng ah tawnba uh ni. Amih khuikah hlangvang tah khohla lamkah ha pawk uh,” a ti nah.
and if I send them away fasting to their houses, they will faint on the road; for many of them came from a great distance.
4 A hnukbang rhoek long khaw, “He rhoek he kohong ah me lamkah buh nim hlang loh a cah thai eh he?” a ti uh.
His disciples answered him, Whence can a man here in the desert satisfy these with bread?
5 Te dongah amih te, “Vaidam meyet na khueh uh?,” a ti nah hatah, “Parhih,” a ti uh.
And he asked them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven.
6 Te dongah hlangping te diklai ah ngol ham a uen. Te phoeiah vaidam parhih te a loh tih a uem tih a aeh. Te daengah hlangping taengah tael hamla a hnukbang rhoek te a paek tih a tael uh.
And he commanded the multitude to recline in order on the ground: and taking the seven loaves, having given thanks he brake them, and gave to his disciples, that they should set before the people; and they distributed them to the multitude.
7 Te phoeiah ngadik a yool a khueh uh te khaw a uem tih amih te, “He khaw tael uh,” a ti nah.
And they had a few small fishes; and blessing, he commanded to set these also before them.
8 A caak uh tih a hah uh phoeiah a nueipil aka coih te voh rhih la a phueih uh.
And they did eat and were filled and they took up what remained of the fragments, seven baskets.
9 Te vaengah thawngli tluk om uh.
And the persons who had eaten were about four thousand: and he sent them away.
10 Amih a hlah phoeiah tah lawng khuila tlek kun tih a hnukbang rhoek neh Dalmanutha paengpang la pawk.
And immediately going into the vessel with his disciples, he came into the coasts of Dalmanutha.
11 Te vaengah Pharisee rhoek te cet uh tih Jesuh te koe a oelh uh. Vaan lamkah miknoek te anih taengah a toem uh tih a noemcai uh.
Then the Pharisees came out, and began to question him, seeking of him a sign from heaven, tempting him.
12 Tedae a lungbuei ah huei tih, “Balae hekah cadil loh miknoek a toem. Nangmih taengah rhep ka thui, Hekah cadil he miknoek tueng ham moenih,” a ti.
And fetching a deep sigh from his very soul, he saith, Why seeketh this generation a sign? verily I tell you, no sign shall be given to this generation.
13 Te dongah amih te a toeng phoeiah koep kun tih rhalvangan la kat.
And leaving them, going again on board the vessel, he departed to the other side.
14 Te vaengah buh khuen ham a hmaai uh dongah lawng khuikah amih taengah vaidam pakhat bueng pawt atah atloe khueh uh pawh.
And they had forgotten to take bread, and had not with them in the vessel but a single loaf.
15 Te vaengah amih te ol a paek tih, “Ngaithuen uh, Pharisee rhoek kah tolrhu neh Herod kah tolrhu te hmat uh,” a ti nah.
And he earnestly charged them, saying, Beware, take heed of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod.
16 Te vaengah vaidam a khueh uh pawt te amamih khuiah dawtlet uh thae.
And they talked the matter over among themselves, saying, This is because we have no loaves of bread.
17 Tedae a ming dongah amih te, “Balae tih vaidam na khueh uh pawt te na thuiuh. Na yakming uh pawt tih, na hmuhming uh thlan a? Na thinko te mangkhak la vawk khueh uh ne.
And Jesus knowing it said unto them, Why reason ye together, because ye have no loaves? Do ye not yet consider, nor understand? Have ye your heart yet hardened?
18 Mik aka khueh rhoek loh na hmuh uh voel pawt tih hna aka khueh rhoek loh na yaak uh pawt dongah na poek uh moenih.
Having eyes, do ye not see? and having ears, do ye not hear? and do ye not remember?
19 Thawngnga ham vaidam panga ka aeh vaengah a nueipil na phueih uh te voh meyet a bae?” a ti nah hatah Jesuh taengah, “Hlainit,” a ti nauh.
When I broke the five loaves among the five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? They say unto him, Twelve.
20 “Thawngli ham parhih vaengah a nueipil na phueih uh te voh meyet a bae?” a ti nah hatah Jesuh taengah, “Parhih,” a ti nauh.
And when the seven loaves among the four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? They said, Seven.
21 Te phoeiah amih te, “Na hmuhming uh hlan a?,” a ti nah.
And he said unto them, How is it that ye do not understand?
22 Bethsaida la a caeh uh vaengah mikdael te Jesuh taengla a khuen uh tih anih te taek sak ham a bih uh.
And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring him a blind man, and entreat him that he would touch him.
23 Te dongah mikdael kah kut te a tuuk tih kho voella a khuen tih a mik ah a timthoeih. A kut te a tloeng thil phoeiah, “Khat khat khaw na hmuh maia?” tila a dawt.
And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him without the city; and spitting on his eyes, he laid his hands upon him, and asked him if he saw aught.
24 Te dongah oeloe tih, “Hlang rhoek te ka sawt dae thingkung aka cet bangla ka hmuh,” a ti nah.
And looking up, he said, I see men walking, as trees.
25 Tedae a mik te a kut koep a tloeng pah thil daengah a cil pah tih a hoeih pah tih phaeng boeih a hmuh.
Then again he put his hands upon his eyes, and made him look up again: and he was entirely restored, and saw all men distinctly.
26 Tedae anih a im la a tueih vaengah tah, “Vangca la kun boeh,” a ti nah.
And he sent him away unto his own house, saying, Neither enter thou into the city, nor speak to any in the city.
27 Jesuh neh a hnukbang rhoek tah Kaisarea Philip kah kho la a caeh uh vaengah longpueng ah a hnukbang rhoek te a dawt tih, “Kai he hlang loh ulae a ti uh,” a ti nah.
And Jesus and his disciples went out into the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and on the road he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Who do men say that I am?
28 Te dongah amah te, “Pakhat loh tuinuem Johan, pakhat loh Elijah, tedae pakhat loh tonghma rhoek khuikah pakhat khat a ti uh,” a ti nauh.
And they answered, John the Baptist: others say, Elias; and others, One of the prophets.
29 Jesuh loh amih te, “Nangmih ta kai he ulae na ti uh?” tila a dawt. Peter loh a doo tih, “Nang tah Khrih ni,” a ti nah.
And he said unto them, But who do ye say that I am? Then Peter answering, said unto him, Thou art the Messiah.
30 Te vaengah amah kawng te thui pawt ham amih te a uen.
And he strictly enjoined them, that they should tell no man of this.
31 Te phoeiah amih taengah hlang capa te muep a patang ham neh patong rhoek loh a hnawt ham khaw, khosoihham rhoek neh cadaek rhoek loh a ngawn phoeikah hnin thum ah a thoh ham khaw a kuek te koe a thuituen.
And he began to teach them, that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, and chief priests, and scribes, and be slain, and after three days rise again.
32 Te vaengah ol te sayalh la a thui dongah Peter loh Jesuh te a khue tih koe a toel.
And he spake this saying openly. And Peter taking him aside, began to remonstrate with him.
33 Tedae Jesuh loh mael tih a hnukbang rhoek te a sawt doeah Peter te a tluung tih, “Satan, Pathen te na poek pawt tih hlang te na poek dongah ka hnuk la nong,” a ti nah.
But he turned himself around, and seeing his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou dost not relish the things which are of God, but those that are of men.
34 Te phoeiah a hnukbang rhoek neh hlangping te a khue tih, “Khat khat loh kai hnukah vai ham a ngaih atah amah a huek uh phoeiah a thinglam te kawt saeh lamtah kai m'vai saeh.
Then calling to him the multitude, with his disciples, he said to them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
35 Amah khaw a hinglu te khang ham aka ngaih tah a hlong ni. Tedae amah khaw kai neh olthangthen ham a hinglu aka hlong tah daem ni.
For whosoever would preserve his life shall lose it; but whosoever would lose his life for my sake and the Gospel, he shall preserve it.
36 Hlang pakhat te Diklai pum a dang dae a hinglu te a hlong atah balae a hoeikhang?
For what would it profit a man, though he should gain the whole world, if he be punished with the loss of his own soul?
37 Hlang loh a hinglu ham balae tlansum la a phai eh?
Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
38 He suentae lakliah kamah neh ka ol aka yah puei te tah samphaih neh hlangtholh la om coeng. Hlang capa loh a napa kah thangpomnah dongah hlangcim rhoek kah puencawn rhoek neh ha pawk vaengah anih te a yah puei van ni,” a ti nah.
For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, before this adulterous and sinful generation; of him will the Son of man also be ashamed, when he shall come in the glory of his Father, with the holy angels.
