Matthai 27
1 Mincang a pha atah Jesuh te duek sak hamla khosoihham rhoek neh pilnam khuikah a ham rhoek tah dawtletnah boeih a khueh uh.
Now when morning came, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death.
2 Jesuh te a khih uh phoeiah a khuen uh tih khoboei Pilat taengah a thak uh.
They bound him, led him away, and handed him over to Pontius Pilate, the governor.
3 Jesuh a boe sak uh te anih aka voei Judah loh a hmuh vaengah yut tih khosoihham rhoek neh a ham rhoek taengah tangka sawmthum te a balkhong.
When Judas, who had betrayed him, saw that Jesus had been condemned, he regretted what he had done and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders,
4 “Ka tholh tih ommongsitoe thii ka voeih,” a ti nah. Tedae te rhoek loh, “Kaimih neh balae benbo benpang, namah loh ming saw,” a ti na uh.
saying, “I have sinned by betraying innocent blood.” But they said, “What is that to us? See to it yoʋrself.”
5 Te dongah tangka te bawkim khuiah a voeih tih vik khoe uh. Te phoeiah cet tih kuiok.
So he threw the pieces of silver into the temple and departed. Then he went away and hanged himself.
6 Tedae khosoihham rhoek loh tangka te a loh uh tih, “Thii phu la a om dongah Korban khuila khueh ham tueng pawh,” a ti uh.
The chief priests took the pieces of silver and said, “It is not lawful to put them into the temple treasury, since they are a price paid for blood.”
7 Te dongah dawtletnah a khueh uh tih te nen te kholong rhoek kah phuel la ambop kah lo te a lai uh.
So they took counsel and used the money to buy the potter's field as a burial place for foreigners.
8 Te dongah te kah lohmuen tah tihnin due, “Thii lohmuen, “tila a khue uh.
Therefore that field has been called the Field of Blood to this day.
9 Te dongah tonghma Jeremiah loh a thui tah soep coeng. Te vaengah, “Tangka sawmthum te a doe uh. A phu a tloek te Israel ca rhoek lamloh a tloek uh,” a ti.
Then what was spoken by the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled: “They took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him on whom a price had been set, on whom some of the sons of Israel had set a price,
10 Te phoeiah ka boeipa loh a thuinuet bangla ambop kah lohmuen te tangka la a paek uh,” a ti.
and they gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord directed me.”
11 Jesuh te khoboei hmaiah a pai vaengah khoboei loh a dawt tih, “Nang Judah manghai la na om a?” a ti nah hatah Jesuh loh, “Namah long ni na ti,” a ti nah.
Meanwhile, Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor asked him, “Are yoʋ the king of the Jews?” Jesus said to him, “Yoʋ have said it yoʋrself.”
12 Te vaengah khosoihham rhoek neh patong rhoek loh Jesuh te a paelnaeh dae a doo moenih.
But when he was accused by the chief priests and the elders, he gave no answer.
13 Te dongah Pilat loh Jesuh te, “Nang he muep m'pael uh te na yaak moenih a?” a ti nah.
Then Pilate said to him, “Do yoʋ not hear all the things they are testifying against yoʋ?”
14 Tedae Jesuh loh olka kam khat nen pataeng a lan pawt dongah khoboei te bahoeng a ngaihmang.
But he gave him no answer, not even to a single charge, so the governor was greatly amazed.
15 Khotue ah ana sainoek tah khoboei loh hlangping ham amamih ngaih thongtla pakhat te a hlah.
Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to release one prisoner for the crowd, whomever they wanted.
16 Te vaengah Barabbas Jesuh la a khue thongtla mingthang te a khueh uh.
At that time they had a notorious prisoner named Barabbas.
17 Amih a tingtun uh vaengah Pilat loh amih te, “Jesuh Barabbas neh Khrih la a khue Jesuh khuiah nangmih ham ulae kan hlah ham na ngaih uh,” a ti nah.
So when the crowds were gathered together, Pilate said to them, “Whom do you want me to release for you? Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Christ?”
18 Uethnetnah dongah anih he a voeih uh tila a ming.
(For he knew they had handed Jesus over out of envy.)
19 Pailat te laitloek ngolkhoel dongah a ngol vaengah a yuu loh anih te ol a tah tih, “Hlang dueng te nang hut moenih, anih kongah tihnin ka mang ah mat ka patang,” a ti nah.
While Pilate was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent him this message: “Have nothing to do with that righteous man, for I have suffered a great deal today in a dream because of him.”
20 Tedae khosoihham rhoek neh a ham rhoek loh Barabbas te bih tih Jesuh te poci hamla hlangping te a yoek uh.
But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas to be released and for Jesus to be executed.
21 Te phoeiah khoboei loh amih te a doo tih, “Panit khuiah ulae nangmih taengah hlah ham na ngaih uh,” a ti nah. Te vaengah te rhoek loh, “Barabbas,” a ti uh.
In response the governor said to them, “Which of the two do you want me to release for you?” They said, “Barabbas.”
22 Pilat loh amih taengah, “Te koinih Khrih la a khue Jesuh te metlam ka saii eh?” a ti nah hatah, “Tai saeh,” boeih a ti uh.
So Pilate said to them, “What then shall I do with Jesus, who is called Christ?” They all said to him, “Let him be crucified!”
23 Tedae Pilat loh, “Balae thae a saii te,” a ti nah. Te vaengah amih pang uh khungdaeng tih, “Tai laeh,” a ti uh.
Then the governor said, “Why? What evil has he done?” But they cried out all the more, “Let him be crucified!”
24 Pilat loh a hoeikhang hae moenih olpungnah ni aka om tila a hmuh. Tui a loh tih hlangping hmaiah kut a yuh phoeiah, “Anih thii dongah ommongsitoe lamni ka om, namamih loh na ming bitni,” a ti nah.
When Pilate saw that he was achieving nothing and that a riot was breaking out, he took water and washed his hands before the crowd, saying, “I am innocent of the blood of this righteous man. See to it yourselves.”
25 Te dongah pilnam boeih loh a doo tih, “Anih kah thii tah kaimih so neh ka ca rhoek soah tla saeh,” a ti nah.
All the people answered, “His blood be on us and on our children!”
26 Te vaengah amih hamla Barabbas te a hlah pah. Tedae Jesuh te a tam tih tai ham a paek.
Then he released for them Barabbas, but he scourged Jesus and handed him over to be crucified.
27 Te phoeiah Jesuh te khoboei kah rhalkap rhoek loh khoboeiyung la a khuen uh tih caem pum loh a tingtun thil uh.
Then the governor's soldiers took Jesus with them into the governor's headquarters and gathered against him the entire cohort of soldiers.
28 A himbai te a pit pa uh tih rhalkap himbai a nukyum te anih a bai sakuh.
They stripped him and put a scarlet robe on him,
29 Hling rhuisam khaw a vaeh uh tih a lu soah a khuem sakuh. Te phoeiah capu kong te a bantang kut ah a pom sakuh. Te vaengah a hmaiah cungkueng neh a tamdaeng uh tih, “Judah manghai na sading saeh,” a ti uh.
and then twisted together a crown of thorns and put it on his head. They put a reed in his right hand, and kneeling before him, they mocked him, saying, “Hail, King of the Jews!”
30 Te phoeiah Jesuh te a timthoeih uh, capu te a loh uh tih a lu ah a boh uh.
Then they spit on him, took the reed, and beat him repeatedly on his head.
31 Jesuh a tamdaeng uh vaengah rhalkap himbai te a pit pa uh tih amah kah himbai te a bai sakuh. Te phoeiah tai hamla a khuen uh.
When they had finished mocking him, they stripped him of the robe and put his own garments back on him. Then they led him away to crucify him.
32 A caeh uh vaengah Kurena hlang, a ming ah Simon te a hmuh uh tih anih te thinglam te a koh hamla a tanolh uh.
As they went out, they found a Cyrenian man named Simon. They pressed him into service, forcing him to carry Jesus' cross.
33 Te phoeiah Golgotha a ti hmuen la pawk uh. Te tah lurhuh la a khue hmuen ni.
When they came to a place called Golgotha (which means, “Place of the Skull”),
34 Te vaengah ankhaa neh a thoek misurtui te ok hamla Jesuh te a paek uh dae a ten vaengah ok ham ngaih pawh.
they gave Jesus sour wine to drink, mixed with gall. But when he tasted it, he refused to drink it.
35 Anih a tai uh phoeiah tah a himbai te tael uh thae tih hmulung a naan uh.
After crucifying him, they divided his garments among themselves by casting lots.
36 Te phoeiah ngol uh tih amah te pahoi a tawt uh.
Then they sat down and kept watch over him there.
37 Te vaengah a paelnaehnah te a lu soah a khing pa uh tih, “Anih tah Judah manghai Jesuh ni,” tila a daek.
Over his head they placed the written charge against him, which read, “This is Jesus, the King of the Jews.”
38 Te vaengah dingca rhoi tah Jesuh taengkah banvoei ah pakhat neh bantang ah pakhat a tai uh.
Then two robbers were crucified with him, one on his right and one on his left.
39 Aka van paitai loh a lu a hinghuen uh tih anih te a soehsal uh.
Those who passed by reviled him, shaking their heads
40 Te vaengah, “Bawkim te aka phae tih hnin thum ah aka sa aw, namah te khang uh lamtah Pathen Capa la na om atah thinglam lamloh suntla lah saw,” a ti na uh.
and saying, “Yoʋ who would destroy the temple and build it in three days, save yoʋrself. If yoʋ are the Son of God, come down from the cross!”
41 Khosoihham rhoek, cadaek rhoek neh a ham rhoek long khaw a tamdaeng uh van.
In the same way the chief priests also, along with the scribes, elders, and Pharisees, were mocking him, saying,
42 “Hlang tloe te a khang tih amah te khang thai pawh, Israel manghai ni, thinglam lamloh suntla laeh saeh, te vaengah anih te ka tangnah uh bitni.
“He saved others, but he cannot save himself. If he is the king of Israel, let him come down now from the cross, and we will believe in him.
43 Pathen dongah pangtung lah ko, a ngaih atah hlawt laeh saeh, 'Kai he Pathen Capa ni,’ a ti lah ko,” a ti uh.
He has put his trust in God; let God deliver him now if he wants him, for he said, ‘I am the Son of God.’”
44 A taengkah a tai uh dingca rhoi long khaw amah la a thuithet rhoi.
The robbers who were crucified with him were also reviling him in the same way.
45 Khonoek parhuk lamloh khonoek pako duela diklai boeih te yinnah loh a khuk thil coeng.
From the sixth hour until the ninth hour, there was darkness over the whole land.
46 Khonoek pako tluk atah Jesuh tah ol a len pang tih, “Eli Eli lama sabakhthani,” a ti. Te tah, 'Ka Pathen, Ka Pathen oeh, balae tih kai nan phap, ' tila om.
And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, “Eli, Eli, lima sabachthani?” that is, “My God, my God, why have yoʋ forsaken me?”
47 Aka pai rhoek khuikah hlangvang a yaak uh vaengah, “Anih loh Elijah a khue,” a ti uh.
When some of those standing there heard this, they said, “This man is calling for Elijah.”
48 Te vaengah amih khuikah pakhat tah tlek yong tih caethum te a loh. Yuthui neh a sul phoeiah capu kong dongah a yen tih Jesuh te a tul.
Immediately one of them ran, got a sponge, filled it with sour wine, put it on a reed, and gave it to him to drink.
49 Tedae a tloe rhoek loh, “Hlah dae, anih aka khang ham Elijah ha pawk venim so uh lah sih,” a ti uh.
But the rest said, “Leave him alone. Let us see if Elijah comes to save him.”
50 Te phoeiah Jesuh te ol a len ngai la koep pang tih mueihla te pak a hlah.
Then Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and gave up his spirit.
51 Te vaengah bawkim kah hniyan te a so lamloh a hmui due panit la pawn tih diklai khaw hinghuen, lungpang khaw paeng.
And behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth was shaken, and the rocks were split.
52 Hlan khaw ong uh tih aka ip tangtae hlangcim rhoek kah a pum muep thoo uh.
The tombs were opened, and the bodies of many saints who had fallen asleep were raised.
53 A thohkoepnah hnukah phuel lamkah aka cet rhoek tah khopuei cim la kun uh tih muep a yaak sakuh.
(They came out of the tombs, and after his resurrection they went into the holy city and appeared to many.)
54 Te vaengah rhalboei neh anih taengkah Jesuh aka tawt rhoek loh lingluei neh aka thoeng hno te a hmuh uh tih bahoeng a rhih uh. Te vaengah, “Anih tah Pathen Capa la om tangtang,” a ti uh.
Now when the centurion and those who were keeping watch with him over Jesus saw the earthquake and the things that had happened, they became very frightened and said, “Truly this man was the Son of God.”
55 Tekah aka om huta rhoek long khaw a hla lamloh muep a hmuh uh. Amih loh Jesuh te Galilee lamkah a vai uh tih a taengah thotat uh.
Many women who had followed Jesus from Galilee and provided for him were there looking on from a distance,
56 Amih lakliah Magadala kah Mary, James neh Joseph kah a manu Mary neh Zebedee kah capa rhoek kah a manu khaw om.
among whom were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.
57 Hlaem a pha vaengah tah Arimathea kah kuirhang hlang pakhat a ming ah Joseph te ha pawk. Anih tah amah rhoe khaw Jesuh taengah bang.
When it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea named Joseph, who was himself also a disciple of Jesus.
58 Anih loh Jesuh rhok bih hamla Pilat te a paan vaengah mael hamla Pilat loh ol a paek.
He went to Pilate and asked for Jesus' body. So Pilate commanded that the body be given to him.
59 Joseph loh rhok te a loh phoeiah hnipen aka caih neh a yen.
Joseph took the body, wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,
60 Te phoeiah lungpang khuiah a thai la a thuk hlan khuiah a khueh. Te vaengah hlan thohka te lungto len a paluet thil tih a caeh tak.
and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn in a rock. Then he rolled a large stone against the entrance of the tomb and went away.
61 Te vaengah Magadala Mary neh a tloe Mary tah pahoi om tih hlan kah hmai ah ngol rhoi.
Mary Magdalene was there, and so was the other Mary, sitting across from the tomb.
62 Rhuengphongnah a om phoeikah a vuen ah khosoihham rhoek neh Pharisee rhoek loh Pilat taengah tingtun uh.
The next day (that is, after the day of Preparation), the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered together before Pilate
63 Te vaengah “Boeipa, te kah laithaelaidang loh a hing vaengah, “' Hnin thum phoeiah ka thoo ni,’ a ti te ka poek uh.
and said, “Sir, we remember that while he was still alive that deceiver said, ‘After three days I will rise again.’
64 Te dongah hlan te a thum hnin duela tawt ham olpae mai. A hnukbang rhoek ha pawk uh tih huen uh ve. Te vaengah pilnam taengah, 'Duek lamloh thoo coeng,’ ti ve. Te dongah a hnukkhueng kah tholhhiknah tah lamhma lakah a thae la om ve,” a ti uh.
Therefore command that the tomb be secured until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, steal him away, and say to the people, ‘He has been raised from the dead.’ This last deception would be worse than the first.”
65 Pilat loh amih taengah, “Rhaltawt na khueh uh te ta, Cet uh lamtah na ming uh bangla tawt uh,” a ti nah.
Pilate said to them, “You have a guard of soldiers. Go and make it as secure as you know how.”
66 Te phoeiah amih te cet uh tih phuel ah rhaltawt taengkah lungto te kutnoek a daeng thil tih a khoh uh.
So they went and secured the tomb by sealing the stone and posting the guard of soldiers.
