Luke 17

1 Jesu ing a hubatkhqi venawh: “Thlang ak thawlh sak ik-oeih taw awm hly ngai ngai hy, cehlai thawlhnaak aham ce a ik-oeih ak awm sakkungkhqi ce khaw na map uhy.

Then said he to the disciples, It is impossible but that offenses will come: but woe to him, through whom they come!

2 Vawhkaw naasenkhqi thawlh sak anglakawhtaw cawhkaw thlang ce a hawng awh cang neetnaak lung awi sak nawh tuilik khuina nik khawng man anih aham leek hly bet hy.

It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.

3 Cedawngawh ak leek na qalqing uh. Na koeinaa a thawlh awhtaw, anih ce toel lah, ang zut awhtaw, ak khan awh qeenkhaw ngai law.

Take heed to yourselves: If your brother trespass against you, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.

4 Nak khan awh khaw hypoet awh ak khqih dy awh thawlh nawh, ak khqih dy bai lawt na venawh, ‘Zut nyng’ a ti awhtaw qeenkhaw ngai law pe,” tinak khqi hy.

And if he trespass against you seven times in a day, and seven times in a day turn again to you, saying, I repent; you shall forgive him.

5 Ceityihkhqi ing Bawipa venawh, “Kaimih ak cangnaak ve taai law sak lah! tina uhy.

And the apostles said to the Lord, Increase our faith.

6 A mingmih a venawh, “Antlam ak ui teh mah cangnaak nami taak mantaw, vawhkaw thaithing a venawh, ‘Nak kqa mah na phu qu nawhtaw tuicunli na khawng qu lah,’ nami tinaak awh ce, nami tinaak amyihna namik awi ce ngai law kaw.

And the Lord said, If you had faith as a grain of mustard seed, you might say to this sycamine tree, Be you plucked up by the root, and be you planted in the sea; and it should obey you.

7 Nangmih ak khuiawh kaw thlang pynoet ing, laikawk ak nawk, am awhtaw tuu ak khai tyihzawih pynoet ta mai lah seh. Cawhkaw tyihzawih ce laikawk nakaw a pha law kqoeng awh,

But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle, will say to him by and by, when he is come from the field, Go and sit down to meat?

8 Buh lo hlah, leng qu nawhtaw buh ka ai boeih hlan dy ni qeh; cekcoengawh aw a ai bit kawp ti,’ am namik tinaak hly nu?

And will not rather say to him, Make ready with which I may sup, and gird yourself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunken; and afterward you shall eat and drink?

9 A sai hly kawi ik-oeih ce a sai dawngawh a tyihzawih ak khan awh zeelnaak awi ak kqawn hly re aw?

Does he thank that servant because he did the things that were commanded him? I trow not.

10 Cemyih lawtna nangmih awm nami sai hly kawi ik-oeih boeih nami sai coengawh, ‘Amak kawihka tyihzawih na ni ka mi awm hy; ka sai hly kawi qoe ni ka mi sai hy,’ ti uh,” tinak khqi hy.

So likewise you, when you shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that which was our duty to do.

11 Jerusalem khaw benna, Samari ingkaw Kalili khawqi benna kawng cet hy.

And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the middle of Samaria and Galilee.

12 Vangca pynoet ak khuiawh, a kun awh, mynqaai ak neh thlang thlanghqa ing pan law uhy. Ak hla nakawng dyi unawh,

And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off:

13 khawteh na, Bawipa Jesu, kaimih ve nim qeen khqi lah! tinawh qeennaak thoeh uhy.

And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.

14 Cekkhqi ce a huh awh, “Cet unawh taw, khawsoeih a venawh nami pum ce huh uh,” tinak khqi hy. A ming voei awh ce a mingmih ce qoei boeih uhy.

And when he saw them, he said to them, Go show yourselves to the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed.

15 A mingmih ak khuiawh kaw thlang pynoet ing, mynqaai a qoei ce a huh awh, hlat law tlaih nawh, khawteh na khy nawh Khawsa ce kyihcah hy.

And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God,

16 Jesu a khawkung awh ce ang tluk doena zeelnaak awi kqawn hy; anih taw Samari thlang na awm hy.

And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.

17 Jesu ing, Thlanghqa na qoei boeih uhyk ti my? Thlang kow tloek taw hana nu ami awm?

And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine?

18 Vawhkaw khaw lawk thlang ti kaa taw ak chang tloek ak khuiawh Khawsa kyihcah aham ak voei law pynoet ca awm am awm nawh nu? tinawh doet law pynoet ca awm am awm nawh nu? tinawh doet khqi hy.

There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger.

19 Ce ak thlang a venawh, “Tho nawhtaw cet hlah, nak cangnaak ing ni qoei sak hawh hy,” tina hy.

And he said to him, Arise, go your way: your faith has made you whole.

20 Hypoet taw, Khawsa qam a lawnaak hly akawng ce Farasikhqi ing doet uhy. Jesu ing, “Khawsa qam taw nangmih a mikhuh awh am law hy,

And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God comes not with observation:

21 'Vawh ni a awm,’ am awhtaw, ‘Cawh ni a awm,’ tinawh u ing awm ap kqawn thai hy. Khawsa ram taw nangmih ak khuiawh ni a awm,” tinak khqi hy.

Neither shall they say, See here! or, see there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

22 Cekcoengawh a hubatkhqi venawh, “Thlanghqing Capa a khawnghi hypoet ca awm huh aham nami ngaihnaak a khawnghi ce law kaw, cehlai am hu kawm uk ti.

And he said to the disciples, The days will come, when you shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and you shall not see it.

23 thlangkhqi ing, ‘cawh ni a awm hy ce!’ am awhtaw, ‘Vawh ni a awm hy ve!’ ni tinak khqi kaw. Cekkhqi hu awh koeh cet uh.

And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not after them, nor follow them.

24 Thlanghqing Capa a khawnghi taw khaw phla balh balh nawh khan ak kqannaak awhkawng a dytnaak dyna ak coei amyihna awm kaw.

For as the lightning, that lightens out of the one part under heaven, shines to the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day.

25 Cehlai anih ing khuikhanaak ce hu ma kaw, ve a khuk awhkaw thlangkhqi ing hoet kawm uh.

But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation.

26 Novah khuk awhkaw myihna, Thlanghqing Capa a khawnghi ce awm lawt kaw.

And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.

27 Novah ing lawng khuina a kun dy, thlangkhqi ing ai uhy, aw uhy, zu lo unawh vaa ta uhy. Cehlai tuiliu ce law nawh a mingmih ce liu khqi boeih hy.

They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.

28 Lot a khuk awh awm cemyihna ce awm hy. Cawhkaw thlangkhqi ing ai uhy, aw uhy, ik-oeih zawi uhy, thlai uhy, ik-oeih ling uhy, imkhqi sa uhy.

Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built;

29 Cehlai Lot ing Sodom khaw a cehtaaknaak a khawnghi awhtaw, khan nakawng kat mai tla law nawh a mingmih boeih ce ui hy.

But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.

30 Thlanghqing Capa a lawnaak khawnghi ce cemyihna awm lawt kaw.

Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

31 Ce a khawnghi a pha awh u awm iptih na ak awm ing, ipkhui nakaw ik-oeih ak lo na koeh nuk kqum voel seh. Lo na ak awm ing ik-oeih ak lo na im na koeh hlat tlaih voel seh.

In that day, he which shall be on the housetop, and his stuff in the house, let him not come down to take it away: and he that is in the field, let him likewise not return back.

32 Lot a zu ce poek uh!

Remember Lot’s wife.

33 U awm a hqingnaak thawng aham ak ngaih ing a hqingnaak ce hlawng kawmsaw, u awm a hqingnaak ak hlawng ingtaw hu lat kaw.

Whoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.

34 Ce am than awh, ihkhun awh thlang pakkhih ip kaw; pynoet ce lo kawnsaw, pynoet ce cehta kaw.

I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.

35 Nu pakkhih ing sum su kaw; pynoet ce lo kawmsaw, pynoet ce cehta kaw,” tinak khqi hy.

Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

36 Cekcoengawh, “Lo awh thlang pakkhih awm kaw; pynoet ce lawh na awm kawmsaw pynoet cetaw cehtaak na awm kaw,” tinak khqi hy.

Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

37 A mingmih ing, Bawipa, ce han awh a awm kaw? tinawh doet uhy. Anih ing, “Meh qawk a awmnaak awh, langtahkhqi awm kawm uh,” tinak khqi hy.

And they answered and said to him, Where, Lord? And he said to them, Wherever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.
