1 Jesuh te rhaithae kah a noemcai hamla mueihla loh khosoek la a mawt.
Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
2 Khothaih hnin sawmli, neh khoyin sawmli a yaeh bawt ah, a bungpong.
And having fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward he was hungry.
3 Te vaengah noemcai kung loh anih te a paan tih, “Pathen capala na om atah hekah lungto he voek lamtah buhla poeh saeh,” a ti nah.
And after he who tempts came, he said to him, If thou are the Son of God, speak so that these stones may become bread.
4 Tedae Jesuh loh a doo tih, “Hlang he vaidam bueng nen pawt tih, Pathen ka lamkah aka thoeng ol boeih nen mah hing saeh tila a daek coeng,” a ti nah.
But having answered, he said, It is written, Man will not live on bread alone, but on every word coming out through the mouth of God.
5 Te phoeiah anih te rhaithae loh khopuei cim la a khuen tih, bawkim kah tlungsoi ah a pai sak.
Then the devil takes him into the holy city, and stands him on the pinnacle of the temple.
6 Te vaengah amah te, “Pathen capa la na om atah namah cungpung thuk lah, a daek coeng ta, a puencawn rhoek te nang ham a uen vetih, amih kut neh n'dom bitni, na kho khaw lungto neh na tongtah mahpawh,” a ti nah.
And he says to him, If thou are the Son of God, cast thyself down, for it is written, He will command his agents about thee, and, They will take thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
7 Jesuh loh, “Boeipa na Pathen te noemcai boeh tila a daek van,” a ti nah.
Jesus said to him, Again it is written, Thou shall not challenge the Lord thy God.
8 Te phoeiah rhaithae loh tlang bahoeng a sang la a khuen tih, “Diklai ram boeih neh a thangpomnah te a tueng.
Again, the devil takes him onto an exceedingly high mountain, and shows him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them.
9 Rhaithae loh, “Na bakop tih kai nan bawk atah he rhoek he nang boeih kam paek ni,” a ti nah.
And he says to him, All these things I give thee, if after falling down, thou will worship me.
10 Jesuh loh, “Satan cet, Boeipa na Pathen bueng mah bawk lamtah thothueng tila a daek coeng,” a ti nah.
Then Jesus says to him, Get thee behind me, Satan, for it is written, Thou shall worship the Lord thy God, and him only thou shall serve.
11 Te daengah rhaithae loh a hlah. Te phoeiah puencawn rhoek loh pahoi a paan uh tih Jesuh te a khut uh.
Then the devil leaves him, and behold, agents came and served him.
12 Johan a voeih uh te a yaak vaengah Galilee la khoe uh.
Now when Jesus heard that John was delivered up, he departed into Galilee.
13 Nazareth te a hnoo tih, Zebulun neh Naphtali vaang khuikah Kapernaum tuikaeng la pawk tih kho a sak.
And having left Nazareth behind, after coming, he dwelt in Capernaum by the sea in the regions of Zebulun and Naphtali,
14 Te daengah ni tonghma Isaiah loh a thui te a soep eh.
so that what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which says,
15 “Zebulun peng neh Naphtali peng, tuipuei kah longpuei, Jordan rhalvangan, namtom rhoek kah Galilee,
The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles,
16 Yinnah khuikah ngol sut pilnam loh vangnah a len koek a hmuh tih, dueknah hlipkhup kho ah aka ngol rhoek soah vangnah ha thoeng coeng,” a ti.
the people who dwell in darkness saw a great light, and to those who dwell in the region and shadow of death, light sprang up to them.
17 Te vaeng lamkah ni Jesuh loh, “Vaan ram te a yoei coeng dongah yut uh laeh,” tila hoe ham neh thui ham te a tong.
From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent ye, for the kingdom of the heavens has approached.
18 Galilee tuipuei kaeng ah a pongpa vaengah, Simon la a khue Peter neh a manuca Andrew te boeina panit a hmuh. Tuihoi la om rhoi tih tuili ah lawk a voeih rhoi.
And walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen.
19 Te vaengah amih rhoi te, “Nangmih rhoi he kai hnukah hlang aka tu tuihoi la kan saii ni,” a ti nah.
And he says to them, Come behind me, and I will make you fishermen of men.

And straightaway having left the nets, they followed him.

And having gone on from there he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets. And he called them.
22 Te rhoi loh lawng neh a napa te pak a hlah rhoi tih bang rhoi.
And straightaway having left the boat and their father, they followed him.
23 Jesuh loh Galilee kho tom ah cet tih, amih kah tunim ah a thuituen, ram kah olthangthen khaw a hoe, tlohtat boeih neh pilnam khuikah tlohnat boeih te a hoeih sak.
And Jesus went around all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the good news of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.
24 Te vaengah a olthang te Syria tom la cet tih, tlohtat a soeprhaep neh tloh aka khueh boeih, nganboh aka yook, rhaithae aka kaem rhoek, rhaihum neh aka khawn rhoek te a taengla a khuen uh tih amih te a hoeih sak.
And his fame went forth into all Syria. And they brought to him all those faring badly with various diseases, and gripped with pain, and being demon-possessed, and being lunatic, and paralyzed. And he healed them.
25 Te dongah Galilee, Decaplois, Jerusalem, Judea neh Jordan rhalvangan lamkah hlangping yetnu loh a vai uh.
And many multitudes from Galilee and Decapolis and Jerusalem and Judea and beyond the Jordan followed him.
