Luke 13
1 Cawh, ce nyn awh thlang vang law unawh, cekkhqi ing Galili qam thlang, Pilat ing thi, ami Khawsa bawknaak awh khqin himnaak awh a pa sak khqi awithang ce Jesu theen uhy.
And there were certain ones at that time announcing to him concerning the Galileans, whose blood Pilate mixed with their sacrifices.
2 Jesu ing, “Cawhkaw Kalili thlangkhqi ce ak chang Kalili thlang khqi anglakawh ami thawlh bet dawngawh ni cemyihna ami zawk hy, tinawh namik poek nawh nu?
And responding to them He said, Do you think that those Galileans were sinners above all the Galileans, because they suffered these things?
3 Ka nik kqawn peek khqi, cekkhqi ce am thawlh bet uhy! Cehlai nangmih awm am naming zut awhtaw, plawci lawt kawm uk ti.
T say unto you, Nay: but unless you may repent, you shall all likewise perish.
4 Am awhtaw, Siloam ip sang ang tluk awh thlang hlaihkqet a kyih qen ce, Jerusalem awhkaw thlang khqing lak awh ami thawlh bet dawngawh vani hy voei tinawh namik poek nawh nu?
Or those eighteen, on whom the tower in Saloam fell, and killed them, do you think that they were offenders above all the men that dwell in Jerusalem?
5 Ka nik kqawn peek khqi, cekkhqi ce am thawlh bet uhy! Cehlai nangmih awm am naming zut awhtaw plawci lawt kawm uk ti,” tinak khqi hy.
I say unto you, Nay: but unless you may repent, you will all likewise perish.
6 Cekcoengawh vawhkaw nyhtahnaak awi ve kqawn pehy: “Thlang pynoet ing a misur dum khuiawh thai thing ce ling hy. Hypoet awhtaw thai ak thaih ce bit aham cet moe seinu, ak thaih pynoet ca awm am hu hy.
And He spoke this parable, A certain one had a fig-tree planted in his vineyard; and came seeking fruit on it and found none;
7 Cedawngawh misur dum ak qehkung a venawh cet nawh, ‘kup thum khuiawh thai qah bih aham law hawh hlai nyng ak thaih pynoet awm am hu nyng. Hlu mai hlah! Dek ak kang qung,’ tina hy.
and he said to the vinedresser, Behold, three years from which I come seeking fruit on this fig-tree, and I find none: cut it down; why indeed does it cumber the ground?
8 Misur dum ak qehkung ing, “Bawipa, kum oet taw ta mai cang, a kengsamkhqi cawh pe nyng seitaw, dek ak leek ing vyih cang vang nyng.
And responding he says to him, Lord, let it alone also this year, until I shall dig about it, and cast manures:
9 Cawhkawng a kum voel awh a qah awhtaw nep bit kaw! Cehlai ama qah bai vik awhtaw hlu dam bit kawp ti,’ tina hy,” tinak khqi hy.
and if it may bear fruit in the future; and if not you shall cut it down.
10 Sabbath nyn hypoet awh Jesu ing sinakawk pynoet ak khuiawh thlang cawngpyi hy,
And He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath.
11 cawh kum hlaihkhqet ak khawn nu pynoet ce cawh awm hy. Am ting khun qapsat nawh am dyng na am dyi thai hy.
And behold, a woman having a spirit of infirmity eighteen years; and she was bowed together, and not at all able to straighten up.
12 Jesu ing cawhkaw nu ce a huh awh, hai na khy nawh, “Nang nu, thawlhnaak awhkawng loet hawh hyk ti,” tina hy.
And Jesus seeing her, called to her, and said, Woman, thou art loosed from thy infirmity:
13 Ak khan awh a kut tloeng pehy, cawh cawhkaw nu ce am dyng na dyi pahoei nawh Khawsa ce kyihcah hy.
and He placed His hands on her: and immediately she straightened up, and continued to glorify God.
14 Sabbath nyn awh Jesu ing thlak tlo a qoei sak dawngawh, sinakawk ukkung ce kawso doena thlang kqeng a venawh, “Bibinaak aham khaw kquk nyn awm hy. Cawh law unawh taw nami tlawhnaakkhqi ce qoei sak uh, Sabbath nyn awhtaw koeh qoei sak uh,” tina hy.
And the chief ruler of the synagogue, responding, being grieved because Jesus healed on the Sabbath, said to the multitude, There are six days in which it behooveth us to work: therefore during these, coming, be healed, and not on the Sabbath-day.
15 Bawipa ing cawhkaw sinakawk ukkung a venawh, “Nangmih thlak thaikhqi! Nangmih ing Sabbath nyn awh nami vaitaw mai aw, am awhtaw meqang mai aw a qui hlam pe unawh tui am nami awk sak nawh nu?
And the Lord responded to him, and said, Ye hypocrites, does not each one of you loose his ox or his donkey from the stall, and leading him away, give him water on the Sabbath?
16 Cawhtaw vawhkaw nu, Abraham a canu pynoet na ak awm, qaai ing khaw kum hqa hlaihkhqet khuiawh a pin ce Sabbath nyn awh amni hlam pe hly unawh nu? tinak khqi hy.
Did it not behoove this one, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan bound, lo, these eighteen years, to be loosed from this bondage on the Sabbath-day?
17 Ve ak awi ak kqawn awh, a qaalkhqi boeih taw chak uhy, cehlai anih a ik-oeih sainaak awh ce thlangkhqi taw zeel uhy.
And He speaking these things, all opposing Him became ashamed: and the whole multitude rejoiced over all the illustrious works wrought by Him.
18 Jesu ing vemyihna doet hy, “Khawsa qam ve ikaw ing nu a ning myih hy voei? Ikawng nu ka nyhtah lah voei?
Then He said, To what is the kingdom of God like? and to what shall I liken it?
19 Khawsa qam taw thlang ing antlam cii lo nawh dum khuiawh ak theh ing myih hy. Cawhkaw antlam cii ce cawt nawh a thing na dyi law hy, khan nakaw phakhqi law unawh a pang awh ce ngawi uhy,” tinak khqi hy.
It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man having taken, cast into his garden; and it grew, and became a tree; and the birds of heaven lodged in its branches.
20 Cekcoengawh vemyihna doet tlaih bai hy, “Ikawng nu Khawsa qam ve ka nyhtah lah voei?
And again He said, To what shall I liken the kingdom of God?
21 Khawsa qam taw nu ing vaidam dawn khuih thum ak khuiawh hen a zamnaak boeih aham a phul ing myih hy,” tinak khqi hy.
It is like leaven, which a woman having taken, hid in three measures of meal, until the whole was leavened.
22 Cekcoengawh Jesu ing Jerusalem na a ceh awh khawk bau ingkaw vangcakhqi awh ce thlang cawngpyi noe noe hy.
And He was journeying through cities and villages, teaching, and making His journey towards Jerusalem.
23 Thlang pynoet ing “Bawipa, thlang a khoehca doeng ing nu thawngnaak a huh kaw?” tinawh doet hy.
And one said to Him, Lord, are the saved few? And He said to them,
24 Cekkhqi venawh, “Chawmkeng ak ceek khuiawh kun ngah ngah lah uh, kawtih thlang khawzah ing kun aham tha lo hly hlai uhy am kun thai kawm uh.
Agonize to enter in through the narrow gate: because many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and will not be able.
25 Imkung ing tho nawh chawh ce a khaih coengawh taw, a leng na dyi kawm utik saw chawh ce khoek kawm uk ti, ‘Bawipa chawh awng law lah,’ tina kawm uk ti. “Cehlai anih ing, ‘Amni sim khqi nyng, hana kawng nu nami law hy,’ ni tinak khqi kaw.
When the landlord may rise up, and close the door, and you may begin to stand without, and knock at the door, saying, Lord, open unto us; and responding he will say unto you, I know not whence you are.
26 Cawh nangmih ing, “Nang ing buh a an ni aw ni ai haih saw kaw, lam awh awm ni cawngpyi tik saw kaw,” tina kawm uk ti.
Then you will begin to say, We ate and drank in thy presence, and thou didst preach in our streets.
27 Cehlai anih ing, ‘Amni sim khqi nyng, hana kawng nu nami law hy. Nangmih thawlhnaak ak saikhqi, ak chang na cet uh!’ ni tinak khqi kaw.
And he will say, I tell you, I know you not whence you are; depart from me, all you workers of iniquity.
28 Abraham, Isaak, Jakob ingkaw tawnghakhqi boeih Khawsa qam khuiawh ami awm ce nami huh awh, nangmih taw a leng na kqangnaak ingkaw hatahnaak a hun awh awm kawm uk ti.
And there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you cast out.
29 Khaw law khawtlak, a sip a hawt benna kawng thlangkhqi law kawm usaw, Khawsa qam khuiawh buh veelnaak kung awh ngawi kawm uh.
And they will come from the east and west, and the north and south, and will sit down in the kingdom of God.
30 Hu ak khyngkhqi ce ma kawm usaw, ak makhqi ce hu khyng lat kawm uh,” tinak khqi hy.
And behold, the last shall be first, and the first shall be last.
31 Cawh Farasi thlang a vangkhqi ce Jesu a venna law unawh a venawh, “Ve a hun ve cehta nawh ak chang na cet hlah. Herod ing nang him aham ngaih hy,” tina uhy.
At that hour certain Pharisees came to Him, saying; Depart, and go hence: because Herod wishes to slay thee.
32 Jesu ing, “Cet unawh taw ak thai ngentang ce kqawn pe uh, “Tuhngawi awh awm khawngawi awh awm qaaikhqi hqek kawng nyng saw thlak tlokhqi qoei sak kawng, am thum nyn awh kang cainaak ce coeng kawg nyng’ tihy tina uh.
And He said to them, Having gone, tell that fox, Behold, I cast out demons and perfect healings to-day and to-morrow, and on the third day I am made perfect.
33 Kawmih awh awm, tuhngawi, khawngawi ingkaw tiktuh dy ka ceh qoe qoe aham awm hy, tawngha ikawmyih awm Jerusalem khawceng awh am thi thai hy!
Moreover it behooves Me to travel to-day and to-morrow and the day following: because it does not behoove a prophet to perish outside of Jerusalem.
34 Aw Jerusalem, Jerusalem, tawnghakhqi ak himkung ingkaw na venawh a tyih lawkhqi lung ing ak khawngkung, ai nu ing a cakhqi ang hlak khui awh ang koep sih amyihna, na cakhqi izah nu hqui sawi aham, ka ngaih ce, nang ingtaw am ngaih hyk ti!
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them that have been sent unto thee! how frequently did I wish to gather thy children, in the manner in which a hen doth gather her brood under her wings, and ye were not willing!
35 Toek lah, na im ve a sit qak nani ami cehtaak hyt hawh hy. Ka nik kqawn peek, ‘Bawipa ming ing ak law taw a zoseen hy,’ tinawh nak kqawn hlan dy taw kai ve amni hu qoe voel kawp ti,” tina hy.
Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. I say unto you, that you can see me no more, until it shall come to pass that you may say, Blessed is the One coming in the name of the Lord.
