Matthai 4
1 Jesuh te rhaithae kah a noemcai hamla mueihla loh khosoek la a mawt.
Then Jesus was led up 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.
When he had fasted forty days and forty nights, 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.
The tempter came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command these stones to 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 Jesus answered and said to him, “It is written, 'Man shall not live on bread alone, but by every word that comes out of 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 took him into the holy city and set him on the highest point of the temple building,
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 said to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written, 'He will command his angels to take care of you,' and, 'They will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not hit your 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, 'You must not test the Lord your 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 took him up to a very high hill and showed him all the kingdoms of the world along with all their splendor.
9 Rhaithae loh, “Na bakop tih kai nan bawk atah he rhoek he nang boeih kam paek ni,” a ti nah.
He said to him, “All these things I will give you, if you fall down and worship me.”
10 Jesuh loh, “Satan cet, Boeipa na Pathen bueng mah bawk lamtah thothueng tila a daek coeng,” a ti nah.
Then Jesus said to him, “Go away from here, Satan! For it is written, 'You will worship the Lord your God, and you will serve only him.'”
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 left him, and behold, angels came and served him.
12 Johan a voeih uh te a yaak vaengah Galilee la khoe uh.
Now when Jesus heard that John had been arrested, he withdrew into Galilee.
13 Nazareth te a hnoo tih, Zebulun neh Naphtali vaang khuikah Kapernaum tuikaeng la pawk tih kho a sak.
He left Nazareth and went and lived in Capernaum, which is by the Sea of Galilee, in the territories of Zebulun and Naphtali.
14 Te daengah ni tonghma Isaiah loh a thui te a soep eh.
This happened to fulfill what was said by Isaiah the prophet,
15 “Zebulun peng neh Naphtali peng, tuipuei kah longpuei, Jordan rhalvangan, namtom rhoek kah Galilee,
“The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, toward 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 sat in darkness have seen a great light, and to those who sat in the region and shadow of death, upon them has a light arisen.”
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 say, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.”
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.
As he was 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.
Jesus said to them, “Come, follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.”
20 Te dongah lawk te pahoi hnoo tih anih te a vai rhoi.
Immediately they left the nets and followed him.
21 Te lamloh a caeh vaengah a tloe kah boeina rhoi panit, Zebedee kah capa James neh a mana Johan tah lawng dongkah a napa Zebedee neh lawk a bo uh te a hmuh tih amih rhoi te khaw a khue.
As Jesus was going on from there he saw two other brothers, James son of Zebedee, and John his brother. They were in the boat with Zebedee their father mending their nets. He called them,
22 Te rhoi loh lawng neh a napa te pak a hlah rhoi tih bang rhoi.
and they immediately left the boat and their father and 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.
Jesus went about in all of Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every kind of disease and sickness 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.
The news about him went out into all of Syria, and the people brought to him all those who were sick, ill with various diseases and pains, those possessed by demons, and the epileptic and paralytic. Jesus healed them.
25 Te dongah Galilee, Decaplois, Jerusalem, Judea neh Jordan rhalvangan lamkah hlangping yetnu loh a vai uh.
Large crowds followed him from Galilee, the Decapolis, Jerusalem, and Judea, and from beyond the Jordan.
