Luke 8
1 Tua zawkciang in, Jesus sia Pathian kumpingam lungdamna thupha son tu in khuapi le khua no sang ah nungzui sawmleni te taw pai hi,
It happened shortly afterwards that he began to go from town to town and village to village, preaching and telling the good news of the kingdom of God.
2 Taciang natna a tatuam le doai ngilo vei na pan a damsak numei te, tua numei te sung ah, a sung pan doai sali a hawlkhiatsak Mary magdalene,
The twelve were with him, and certain women whom he had delivered from evil spirits and various diseases. Mary of Magdala, out of whom seven demons have been driven,
3 Herod i neisa keam Chuza i zi Joanna, Susanna le a dang tampi te in amate neisa te taw Jesus paai uh hi.
and Joanna, the wife of Chuza, Herod’s steward, and Susanna, and many other women, who used to minister to him out of their substance.
4 Khua tatuam pan in mi tampi te Jesus kung ah hong ki kaikhop ciang in, thu sontena son a:
As a great crowd was gathering, and men of town after town kept restoring to him, he spoke a parable to them.
5 Thaici poai khat thaici poai tu in pai hi: a poai ciang in, pawlkhat te lamlai ah tak hi; tate sia ki sikcil lel a, van a leang vacim te in ne siat hi.
"A sower went out to sow his seed, and as he sowed some fell by the wayside, and was trodden under foot, and the wild birds ate it up.
6 Pawlkhat te sia suang tung ah tak a; a po zawkpociang ngawtak pai hi, banghangziam cile lei hing ngawl hang a hihi.
"Some other seed dropped on the rock, as soon as it grew it withered away, because it had no moisture.
7 Thaici pawlkhat te sia lingphung sung ah tak hi; ling te taw khangkhawm a, ling te in deapcip hi.
"Another part fell among the thorns; and the thorns grew with it and choked it.
8 A dang te sia leipha na mun ah tak a, po in a se zakhat in khang hi. Taciang hi thu te a son zawkciang in, Zak natu bil nei theampo in za ta uh hen, ci au hi.
"But some fell on good soil, and grew up, and brought forth fruit, a hundredfold." When he said this, he called out, "Whoever has ears to hear with, let him listen."
9 Taciang a nungzui te in, hi sontena a khiakna bang ziam? ci in dong hi.
Then his disciples began to interrupt him, saying, "What does this parable mean?"
10 Jesus in, Pathian kumpingam thuku te heak thei na note tung ah hong ki pia zo hi: ahihang ngualdang te tung ah sontena te bek taw ki son tu hi; en napi mu ngawl tu uh hi, ngai na pi tel tuan ngawl tu uh hi.
He answered. "To you it is given to understand the mysteries of the kingdom of God; But all others are taught in parables so that seeing they shall not see, and hearing they shall not hear.
11 Hi sontena sia hibang a hihi: thaici sia Pathian kammal a hihi.
"This is the meaning of the parable. The seed is the word of God.
12 Lampi ah a tak thaici sia Pathian kammal za napi, um in ngupna a nga thei ngawl natu in, doaimangpa hongpai a amate thinsung pan in Pathian kammal te laksak siat hi.
"Those by the wayside are people who hear, but then comes the devil and carries off the word from their heart, so that they may not believe and not be saved.
13 Suang tung ah a tak thaici te sia, Pathian kammal za a, lungdam in sang napi, zung a nei ngawl hang in tawmvei sung um a, ze-etna hun ciang pukkik pai hi.
"Those on the rock are people who, upon hearing, receive the word with joy; but they have no root. For a time indeed they all believe, but in time of temptation they fall away.
14 Lingphung sung a tak thaici te sia, Pathian kammal za napi, leitung thinngimna, hauna le lungkimna te in deap cip a, nga pha nga zo ngawl hi.
"And that which fell upon thorns is those who have heard, but as they go on their way of word is choked with the cares and riches and pleasures of life; so they bring no fruit of perfection.
15 Ahihang leipha na a tak thaici te sia, Pathian kammal a zak uh ciang in, thinsung pha le thuman taw Pathian kammal za a, keamcing ahikom thuakna taw nga pha a nga te a hihi.
"And that in the good soil is those who have listened to the message and, in an honest and good heart, hold fast, and bring forth fruit with patience.
16 Kuama in khuaimei a det uh ciang in khum taw sin ngei ngawl a, lupna nuai ah zong koi ngei ngawl hi; ahihang innsung a tum te in a vaangtang a mu thei natu in meidet na munsang ah koi hi.
"When he lights a lamp no one covers it with a vase or hides it under a bed; he puts it on a lamp-stand so whoever may behold the light.
17 Banghangziam cile a kilang ngawl tu in sealcip thei om ngawl a; heak ngawl tu le ki thethang ngawl tu in phual thei na zong om ngawl hi.
"For is nothing hidden that shall not be disclosed; there is nothing secret which shall not be made known and come to the light.
18 Tua ahikom na thu zak uh te kidawm vun, banghangziam cile a kuamapo a nei te ki pia tu a; a nei ngawl khatpo zong a nei bang in a ngaisut te ki laksak vet lai tu hi, ci hi.
"Take heed, then, how you listen. for he who has, to him shall it be given, but from him who has not, shall be taken away even what he has."
19 Jesus a nu le a suapui te hongpai uh ahihang, mi tamlei ahikom a kung ah pai thei ngawl hi.
There came to him his mother and his brothers, and they could not reach him because of the crowd.
20 Mi khat in Jesus kung ah, na nu le na suapui te nangma taw ki mu nuam in a puasang ah ding hi, ci in son hi.
But some one told him, "Your mother and brothers are standing outside, desiring to see you."
21 Taciang Jesus in amate tung ah, Pathian thu ngai in, a seam te sia ka nu le ka suapui te a hi uh hi, ci in zo kik hi.
"My mother and brothers," he answered, "are those who listen to the word of God and obey it."
22 Nikhat Jesus a nungzui te taw ngunkuang sung ah to uh a: amate tung ah, Tuili ngalkhat ah pai tawng, ci hi. Taciang ngunkuang taw pai tek uh hi.
Now it happened that one of these days he got into a boat, And him his disciples, and he said to them, "Let us cross to the other side of the lake."
23 Ahihang ngunkuang taw a pai uh laitak in Jesus mu hi: tuili tung ah huipi suangval hong va hi; taciang ngunkuang sung ah tuidim in, a lauhuai mama dinmun hong theng hi.
So they set sail. While they were sailing he fell asleep. And there fell on the lake a squall of wind, so that the boat began to fill, and they to be in deadly peril.
24 Nungzui te Jesus kung pai in phong a, Topa, Topa, bo cip khu hi, ci uh hi. Jesus hong tho a, huipi le tuihual te tei hi: taciang amate thim uh a, dai dide hi.
Then they came to him and woke him, saying, "Master, Master, we are lost!" Then he awoke, and rebuked the winds and the raging of the sea. They ceased, and there was a calm.
25 Jesus in amate tung ah, Na upna uh kongsung ziam? ci hi. Taciang amate lau le lamdangsa in, hisia pa sia bangbang mihing ziam! banghangziam cile ama in huipi le tui te thupia a, a thu ni uh hi, ci in khat le khat kikum uh hi.
"Where is your faith?" he asked them, In their terror they were filled with amazement, and said to one another, "Who is this who commands even the winds and the sea, and they obey him?"
26 Taciang amate sia Galilee ngalkhat, Gadarenes ngam ah hong theng uh hi.
Then they put in at the country of Gadarenes, which is across from Galilee.
27 Jesus tuihui ah hong kato ciang in, doai a vei zawk a ngei mama zo khat taw ki si uh hi, ama sia puansil ngawl in, inn zong om ngei ngawl a, than sung bebek ah om hi.
When he landed here he was met by a certain townsman who was possessed by demons. For a long time he had worn no clothes and nor lived in any house, but in tombs.
28 Jesus a mu ciang in, au a, a mai ah bok in, taciang aw ngingtak taw, Jesus, nang a sangbel Pathian Tapa, nang taw bang kisaina nei hi ziam? hong vawtsia heak in, hesuak kong ngen hi, ci hi.
When he saw Jesus he cried out, and fell down before him, and in a loud voice exclaimed. "What have we to do with you, Jesus, you son of God Most High? I implore you to torment me not!"
29 Banghangziam cile Jesus in tha-nin sia mihing sung pan pusuak tu in thu pia zo hi. Tamvei mama doai ngilo in ama man hi: taciang ama sia saikhau le thikkhau taw hen uh ahihang; a hen nate bottan in, doai ngilo in duisung ah paisak hi.
For Jesus was already commanding the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For many times it had seized him and held him, and they again and again kept him under guard, and put him in chains and fetters. But he would break his bonds asunder, as he was driven by the demon in to the desert.
30 Jesus in, Na min kua ziam? ci in dong hi, ama in ka min sia Legion, hi ci hi: banghangziam cile doai ngilo tam mama a sung ah tum hi.
So Jesus asked him, "What is your name?" And he answered, "Legion" (for many demons had entered into him).
31 Doai ngilo te in Jesus kung ah, dum thukpi sung ah a hawlkhiat ngawl natu in ngen hi. (Abyssos g12)
So they besought Jesus not to command them to go away into the abyss. (Abyssos g12)
32 Mualtung ah vokhon tam mama anne in om hi: taciang doai ngilo te in Jesus tung ah vokhon sung ah tumsak natu in ngen uh a, Jesus in tumsak hi.
Now there was a great herd of swine feeding on the hillside, and the demons begged him to give them leave to enter them. He gave them leave.
33 Tua pa sung pan in doai ngilo te pusuak a, vokhon sung ah tum hi: vokhon te sia liang pan ki nuntaw suk in tuili sung ah tuita in thi siat hi.
The demons came out of the man, and entered into the swine; the herd rushed violently down over the cliff into the lake.
34 Vokcing te in thupiang teng a mu uh ciang, tai uh a, tua thu khuasung le khuano tatuam te ah son hi.
And those who saw what had happened fled and reported it in the town and the villages.
35 Tua thupiang en tu in mi tampi pusuak uh a; Jesus kung ah hongpai uh hi, taciang a sung pan doai ngilo a pusuak pa nik le puan sil in, thinsung man in Jesus peang kung ah a to a mu uh ciang in, lau tek mama uh hi.
Then the people came out to see what had happened, and came to Jesus, and found the man out of whom the demons had gone sitting clothed and in his right mind, at the feet of Jesus. And they were terrified.
36 Tua pa a mu uh ciang in doai ngilo vei in a thin-am pa a damkik na thu ngualdang te son uh hi.
Then those who had seen it told them how the demon-possessed man had been saved.
37 Tasiaciang Gadarenes ngam le a kiimkot a om mihonpi theampo in amate kung pan pusuak tu in ngen uh hi; banghangziam cile amate lau mama uh hi: taciang Jesus sia ngunkuang sung ah to a, cia kik hi.
And the whole populace of Gadarenes and the surrounding territory besought Jesus to go away from them; for they were terror-stricken. So he entered a boat and returned.
38 A sung pan doai ngilo tampi a pusuak pa in Jesus zui tu in ngen hi: ahihang Jesus in ama paisak a,
But the man out of whom the demons had gone kept begging him that he might be with him. But Jesus sent him away saying,
39 Na inn ah cia tan a, Pathian in nangma atu in na lianpi hong vawtsak te son in, ci hi. Tua pa zong pai a, Jesus in ama atu a vawtsak na lianpi te khuasung theampo ah tangko hi.
"Return to your home, and tell them all that God has done for you." So he went away and throughout the whole city he published how much Jesus had done for him.
40 Jesus a heakkik ciang in, mite in lungdamtak in sang uh hi: banghangziam cile a vekpi in ama ngak tek uh hi.
And as Jesus returned the crowd welcomed him;
41 Taciang, en vun Jairus a kici, synagogue lampui khat hongpai hi: taciang a inn ah pai tu in a peang ah bok in thum hi.
for they were all waiting for him. Just then there came a man named Jarius, and he was ruler in the synagogue. He fell down at Jesus’ feet and begged him to come into his house;
42 Banghangziam cile a tanu neisun sia kum sawm le kum ni kiim hi a, thi dektak in zau hi. Ahihang Jesus a pai ciang in ngual in phul kheukho hi.
for he had only one daughter, about twelve years of age, and she lay dying. But as he went the crowds continued to press in on him.
43 Tuate sung ah numei khat kum sawm le kum ni sung thisuak in a nei theampo syavuan te tung ah zangsiat napi, kuama in damsak thei ngawl hi.
And a woman who for twelve years had had a hemorrhage, and had spent on doctors all that she had, but none had cured her,
44 Jesus nung pan pai in, a puan mong dawn a tham pociang, a thisuak tawlnga hi.
came close behind him, and touched the hem of his garment; and instantly the hemorrhage ceased.
45 Taciang Jesus in, Kua na hong tham nu ziam? ci hi. Mi theampo in nial uh a, Peter le a kung ah a om te in, Topa awng, mihonpi in hong phul kheukho in hong neng cip hi, banghang in, kua in hong tham nu ziam ci ni ziam? ci uh hi.
"Who is that touched me?" said Jesus and when everybody denied it, Peter said, "Master, the crowds are hemming you in and pressing upon you."
46 Jesus in, Khat in hong tham hi: banghangziam cile ka sung pan in vangletna a pusuak hunlam he khi hi, ci hi.
But Jesus said. "Some one did touch me; for I perceived that the power was proceeding out of me."
47 Numeinu in ki im thei ngawl tu hi, ci a tel ciang, huang vadil kawm in hongpai a, Jesus mai ah bok hi, mi theampo mai ah, banghang in Jesus tham ci le, thakhatthu in a dam na thu pualak hi.
Then the woman, who saw that she had not escaped notice, came trembling, and falling down before him, stated before the people for what reason she had touched him, and how she had been instantly healed.
48 Jesus in, Ka tanu awng, patau heak in: na upna in hong damsak zo hi; thinnuamtak in cia in, ci hi.
"Daughter," he said "your faith has made you well, go on into peace."
49 Taciang Jesus a pau laitak in, synagogue lampui pa inn pan khat hongpai a, na tanu thi zo hi; Syapa nawngkaisak nawn heak in, ci hi.
As he was speaking some one came from the house of the synagogue, saying. "Your daughter is dead! Do not trouble the Master."
50 Ahihang Jesus in, tua thu za a, Lau heak in: um bek um in, taciang ama dam tu hi, ci in zo kik hi.
But Jesus heard and answered. "Have no fear. Only believe, and she shall be restored."
51 Jesus tua inn a thet ciang in, Peter, James, John le patangno i nu le pa simngawl kuama innsung ah tumsak ngawl hi.
So he came to the house, and would not permit anyone to go in with him except Peter and Johnand James, and the father and Mother of the little girl.
52 Mi theampo kap uh a, tua nu sia nasia tak in ka tek uh hi: ahihang Jesus in, Kap heak vun; ama thi ngawl hi, a mu hi, ci hi.
The people were weeping and bewailing her, but he said. "Stop your wailing; for she is not dead, but asleep."
53 Numei no sia thi hi, ci he tek zo a hi uh man in Jesus selno in nuisan uh hi.
They began to laugh him to scorn, because they knew well that she was dead.
54 Jesus in a vekpi in pusuaksak siat hi, taciang numeino khut pan len in sam a, Tanu no, tho in, ci hi.
But he took her by the hand and called to her, "Little daughter, rise!"
55 Tasiaciang a thaa hong heakkik a, thakhatthu in thokik hi: taciang Jesus in, an pia tu in thupia hi.
And her spirit returned and instantly she stood up.
56 Taciang a nu le a pa te in lamdangsa mama hi: ahihang Jesus in a sep thu kuama tung son ngawl tu in vaitha hi.
He bade them to get her some food. Her parents were amazed; but he forbade them to tell any one what had been done.
