Luke 17

1 Jesus in a nungzui te tung ah, Mawna sung ah puk le khial thak ngawl tu sia suak thei ngawl hi: ahihang tabang a thengsak sia a mailam bing hi!

Jesus said to his disciples. "It is not possible but that occasions of stumbling should occur, but woe to him through whom they come!

2 Patang no khat khialsak tu sang in, a ngawng ah an ngoaina suang khit in, tuipi sung ah ki khiasuk le, ama atu in phazaw hi.

"It were well for him if a millstone were tied about his neck, and he were hurled into the sea, rather than he should cause one of these little ones to stumble.

3 Noma le noma kidawm vun: na suapui pa sia na tung ah hong khial le, tei in; a ki sikkik a hile, maisak in.

"Be on you guard! "If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents forgive him.

4 Na tung ah ni khat sung sali vei dong hong khial a, na tung ah sali vei dong hongpai in, kisik khi hi, hong cile, maisak in, ci hi.

"And if he sins against you seven times a day, and seven times a day turns to you saying ‘I repent,’ you shall forgive him."

5 Sawltakte in, Topa tung ah, ka upna uh hong khangsak tan, ci uh hi.

The apostles said to the Lord, "Increase our faith!"

6 Taciang Topa in, Note in ankamci cia upna nei le uh te, hi theikung mun ah, na bul pan kilong in, tuipi sung ah ki phut in; ci le uh te, na thu hong ni tu hi.

"If your faith," answered Jesus, "were like a grain of mustard-seed, you would say to this tree, ‘Tear yourself up and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.

7 Ahihang note sung ah khatpo in, lo tho, a hibale tuucing naseam khat nei in, tua naseampa lo pan hong cia pociang, pai in a, anne tu in to in, ci a kua in ci tu nu ziam?

"But who of you who has a slave plowing or keeping sheep, will say to him, when he is come in from the field, ‘Come at once, sit down to dinner,’

8 Ka an neak tu hong vawtkholsak tan a, an hong thuk tan, ka neak ka dawn man dong hong ngak tan, tua zawkciang in ne in a, dawn kik in; ci tu hi ngawl ziam01?

"and will not rather tell him, ‘Get ready something for me to eat, and gird yourself to wait on me until I have eaten and drunken. Then you shall eat and drink.’

9 Naseam pa in thupiak teng a vawt siat zawkciang a topa in lungdam a ko tu ziam? Ko tu um ngawl khi hi.

"Does he think the slave because he did the things that were commanded?

10 Tabangma in, note zong thupiak theampo na vawt siat zawk uh ciang, kote sia phattuam na nei ngawl naseam te ka hi uh hi, ka sep tu nasep a seam bekma khu hi, ci tavun, ci hi.

"Even so, you also, after you have done all the things that are commanded you, should say, ‘We are but slaves, we have only done what it was our duty to do.’"

11 Jesus Jerusalem a pai ciang in Samaria le Galilee ngamngi tawn in pai hi.

Now it happened that as he went his way to Jerusalem, he passed between Samaria and Galilee.

12 Khua khat sung ah a tum uh ciang in, miphak sawm te taw kisi a, a khuala na ah ding in:

And as he was going certain village ten lepers met him.

13 Jesus, Topa awng, hong hesuak tan, ci in a nging tatak in au uh hi.

They stood at a distance and lifted up their voices, saying, "Jesus, Master, take pity on us."

14 Jesus in amate a mu ciang in, Pai tavun a, thiampi te kung ah noma le noma ki lak tavun, ci hi. Amate a pai uh laitak in, a vekpi in thiangtho siat uh hi.

Perceiving this he said to them, "Go and show yourselves to the priest." And as they went they were made clean.

15 Amate sung pan khat in damzo khi hi, ci a mu ciang in, heakkik a, aw ngingtak taw Pathian pok hi,

Now one of them, as he saw that he was cured, came back, glorifying God in a loud voice,

16 Taciang Jesus peang ah bok a, lungdam ko hi: ama sia Samaria mi a hihi.

and he fell on his face at the feet of Jesus and thanked him. He was a Samaritan.

17 Jesus in, Mihing sawm ki thiangsak hi ngawl ziam? Ahihang a dang kua te, koisung ah om ziam?

"Were there not ten cleansed?" asked Jesus, "but where are the nine?

18 Hi ngamdang mi simngawl Pathian pok tu in a heakkik mu ngawl khi hi, ci hi.

"Are there none found to return and give glory to God except this foreigner?"

19 Taciang in Jesus in, Tho in a, pai in: na upna in hong damsak zo hi, ci hi.

And he said unto him, "Rise and go, your faith has healed you."

20 Pharisee te in, Pathian kumpingam sia banghun ciang hong theng tu ziam? ci in Jesus dong uh hi, Jesus in, Pathian kumpingam sia mit taw mu thei in hong theng ngawl tu hi:

The Pharisees asked him when the kingdom of God was coming. He answered. "The kingdom of God does not come so that you can catch sight of it,

21 Hi mun ah en vun! a hibale, zesung ah en vun! ci in kuama in hong ci ngawl tu hi, banghangziam cile, en vun, Pathian kumpingam sia note sung ah om hi, ci hi.

"nor will they say, ‘Look here it is!’ or ‘See there!’ - for the kingdom of God is now in your midst."

22 Jesus in a nungzui te tung ah, Mihing Tapa ni sia, nikhat sung bek zong na mu nop mama uh hun hong theng tu hi, ahihang mu tha ngawl tu nu hi.

Then he said turning to his disciples. "The days will come when you shall long to see one of the days of the Son of man, you shall not see it.

23 Note tung ah, hi mun ah en vun; a hibale, zesung ah en vun, hong ci tu uh hi: tabang te nung pan zui tha heak vun.

"And they shall say to you, ‘Lo there! Lo there!’ But do not go away or follow them.

24 Banghangziam cile, khualeng sia, van mong khat pan mong khat dong a tang bang in, mihing Tapa ni zong tabangma hi tu hi.

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

25 Ahizong a masabel in ama in nasiatak thuak tu a, tu hun mihing te in nial tu uh hi.

"But first he must suffer many things, and be rejected buy his generation.

26 Noah hunlai bangma in mihing Tapa hun ciang zong tabangma hi tu hi.

"And this was in the time of Noah, so will it be in the time of the Son of man.

27 Noah tembaw sung tum a, tuiliim in mi theampo a bocip siat dong, amate ne le dawn, mopui motha in om tek uh hi.

"Men were eating and drinking; they were marrying and being married, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.

28 Tasia bangma in Lot hun lai zong amate ne le dawn, van zuak, thingkung cing le inn sa in om tek uh hi;

"The same was true in the time of Lot; they were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building;

29 Ahihang Lot sia Sodom khua pan a pusua ni ciang in, van pan mei le kat sia ngua bang in zu a, a vekpi in susia siat hi.

"but on the day that Lot left Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all.

30 Mihing Tapa hong ki pualak ni ciang zong tabangma hi tu hi.

"In the same manner it shall be in the day that the Son of man shall be revealed.

31 Tua ni ciang in, innkhum tung a om te, innsung ah van la tu in tuaksuk nawn heak hen: lo ah a omte zong inn ah ciakik nawn heak hen.

"On that day, if a man is on the housetop and his goods inside, let him not go down to take them away; nor should a man in the field turn back.

32 Lot i zi na phawk tavun.

"Remember Lot’s wife!

33 A kuamapo ama nuntakna a hung nuam peuma a nuntakna sum tu hi; a kuamapo a ma nuntakna a sum peuma nuntakna nga tu hi.

"Whoever seeks to keep his life shall lose it; but whoever loses it shall preserve it.

34 Keima in kong ci hi, tua ni zan ciang lupna khat tung ah mi ni lumkhawm tu hi; khat ki la tu a, khat ki nusia tu hi.

"There shall be two women grinding together; the one shall be taken and the other left."

36 Pasal ni lo sung ah na seam khawm tu hi; khat kila tu a, khat ki nusia tu hi, ci hi.

(wanting in the most ancient manuscripts)

37 Ama te in, Topa, koisung hi tu ziam? ci in dong uh hi, Jesus in amate tung ah, Mithi luang om na mun theampo ah vaciik te ki kaikhawm tu hi, ci in zo kik hi.

"Where, Master?" they asked him. "Where the dead body is," he answered, "there will the vultures be gathered together."
