Matthai 17
1 Khohnin hnin rhuk phoeiah Jesuh loh Peter, James neh a mana Johan te a khuen tih amih te tlang sang sola hloep a khuen.
And after six days, Jesus taketh Peter, and James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up to a high mountain apart;
2 Te vaengah Jesuh tah amih kah hmaiah thohai uh tih, a maelhmai te khomik bangla sae. A himbai tah hmaivang bangla a bok la om.
and was transfigured before them: and his face shone like the sun, and his raiment became white as the light.
3 Te vaengah Moses neh Elijah te amih taengah pakcak ha thoeng tih Boeipa nehhmaih cal uh.
And they saw Moses and Elias talking with Him.
4 Te dongah Peter loh Jesuh te a doo tih, “Boeipa heah he mamih om ham then tih, na ngaih atah dap pathum ah pahoi ka saii eh?, nang ham pakhat, Moses ham pakhat, Elijah ham pakhat saeh,” a ti nah.
Then Peter said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou pleasest, let us make three tabernacles here, one for Thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
5 Peter a cal li vaengah aka phaa khomai loh amih te a dah. Te vaengah khomai khui lamkah ol loh, “He tah ka capa thintlo ni, a soah ka lungtlun, a ol hnatun pa uh, “tarha a ti.
And as he was speaking, lo a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye Him.
6 Hnukbang rhoek loh a yaak vaengah a maelhmai a buenglueng uh tih bahoeng a rhih uh.
And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid.
7 Tedae Jesuh loh amih te a paan tih a taek phoeiah, “Thoo uh rhih uh boeh,” a ti nah.
But Jesus came and touched them and said, Rise up and be not afraid.
8 A mik a huel uh daengah Jesuh amah bueng pawt atah uh khaw hmu uh pawh.
And when they lifted up their eyes, they saw none but Jesus only.
9 Tlang lamloh a suntlak uh vaengah amih te Jesuh loh a uen tih, “Mangthui he Hlang Capa duek lamloh a thoh hlan atah thui boeh,” a ti nah.
And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no one, till the Son of man be risen from the dead.
10 Te dongah hnukbang rhoek loh Jesuh te a dawt uh tih, “Balae tih cadaek rhoek loh, ' Elijah he ha pawk lamhma ham a kuek,’ a ti uh?” a ti nah.
And his disciples asked Him, saying, Why then do the scribes say, that Elias must first come?
11 Te vaengah Jesuh loh a doo tih, “Elijah tah ha pawk ngawn coeng tih boeih a thoh pawn ni.
Jesus said unto them, Elias doth indeed come first, and shall set all things right.
12 Tedae nangmih taengah kan thui, Elijah tah ha pawk oepsoeh dae anih te hmat uh pawt tih a ngaih uh sarhui neh Johan te a saii uh. Tangkhuet la hlang capa loh amih kah nganboh a yok tom coeng,” a ti nah.
But I tell you that Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but did what they pleased to him: and so is the Son of man to suffer by them.
13 Te daengah amih ham tuinuem Johan kawng ni a thui pah te hnukbang rhoek loh a hmuhming uh.
Then the disciples understood that He spake to them of John the baptist.
14 Hlangping taengla a pawk uh vaengah anih te hlang pakhat loh a paan.
And when they were come to the multitude, there came to Him a man kneeling down and saying,
15 A taengah cungkueng tih, “Boeipa ka ca he rhen mai, rhaihum dongah bahoeng patang coeng, tui khuila, hmai khuila cungku taitu coeng.
Lord, have compassion upon my son, for he is lunatic and grievously afflicted; for he often falleth into the fire, and often into the water.
16 Anih he na hnukbang rhoek taengla ka khuen dae a hoeih sak uh thai moenih,” a ti nah.
And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not heal him.
17 Jesuh loh a doo tih, “Aka tangnahmueh kah cadil neh aka pamdah aw, nangmih taengah meyet nim ka om eh? Nangmih te meyet nim kan yaknaem ve, anih te kamah taengla pahoi hang khuen,” a ti nah.
Then Jesus answered and said, O unbelieving and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you?
18 Te phoeiah Jesuh loh rhaithae te a ho tih rhaithae loh camoe te a nong tak. Te dongah te vaeng tue lamloh camoe te hoeih.
Bring him here to me. And when Jesus rebuked him, the demon departed out of him, and the child was cured from that time.
19 Te phoeiah hnukbang rhoek loh Jesuh te hloep a paan uh tih, “Balae tih anih te ka haek uh thai pawh,” a ti na uh.
Then came the disciples to Jesus in private, and said, Why could not we cast him out?
20 Te dongah, “Nangmih kah hnalvalnah kongah ni. Nangmih taengah rhep ka thui, mukang mu bang mah tangnah na khueh koinih, hekah tlang he kela thoeih na ti vaengah thoeih vetih na tloel tlaih mahpawh,” a ti nah.
And Jesus said unto them, because of your unbelief: for verily I tell you, if ye had but faith as a grain of mustard-seed, ye might say to this mountain, Remove from hence thither, and it shall remove: and nothing would be impossible to you.
21 Tedae, thangthuinah neh yaehnah nen pawt koinih hebang he poengla coe thai mahpawh
But this kind is not to be cast out but by prayer and fasting.
22 Galilee ah a sisuk uh vaengah Jesuh loh amih te, “Hlang capa tah hlang kut ah a voeih tom coeng.
And while they were in Galilee, Jesus said unto them, the Son of man is to be delivered into the hands of men:
23 Anih te a ngawn uh vetih a thum hnin ah thoo ni,” a ti nah tih mat a khothae uh.
and they will put Him to death, and the third day He shall be raised again. And they were exceedingly grieved.
24 Kapernaum la a pawk uh vaengah cawn aka doe rhoek loh Peter te a paan uh tih, “Na saya loh cawn a paek moenih?” a ti nah.
And when they were come to Capernaum, the receivers of the tribute-money came to Peter and said, Doth not your master pay tribute? Yes, saith he.
25 Peter loh, “Ue,” a ti nah. Im la a pawk uh vaengah Jesuh loh a khal tih, “Simon, nang balae na poek? Diklai manghai rhoek loh u taengkah lamkhong neh mangmu lae a loh? Amih ca rhoek lamkah a? hlanglang lamkah a?” a ti nah.
And when he came into the house, Jesus prevented him and said, What thinkest thou, Simon? Of whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? Of their own children, or of other people?
26 “Hlanglang taengkah,” a ti nah hatah Jesuh loh, “Te dongah a ca ni aka loeih.
Peter saith unto Him, Of others. Jesus answered him, Then are the children free:
27 Te cakhaw amih te n'khah ham om pawh. Tuili la cet lamtah ngavaih te voei uh. Te vaengah nga aka loe lamhma te lo uh. Tedae a ka a ang vaengah tangka na hmuh ni. Te te lo lamtah nang neh kai ham amih te pae,” a ti nah.
but that we may not give them offence, go to the sea-side and throw in a hook, and take the first fish that comes up, and open its mouth, and thou shalt find a piece of money: that take and give them for me and thee.
