Matthew 26
1 Hi thu te a hil zawkciang in Jesus in a nungzui te tung ah,
And when Jesus had finished these discourses, He said to his disciples,
2 Tuzawk ni ni ciang in, paisan poai hi tu hi, ci na he uh hi, taciang mihing Tapa sia thinglamte tung ah khai tu in ap tu hi, ci hi.
Ye know that after two days the passover is to be kept, ---and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.
3 Taciang in thiampi lian te, thukhamhil te le mi upa te thiampi sang Caiaphas leitual ah ki kaikhawm uh a,
Now the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people were then assembled together into the palace of the high priest, whose name was Caiaphas:
4 Jesus man ku in, a thalup thei natu thu ngeal uh hi.
and were consulting how they might take Jesus by treachery and put Him to death.
5 Poai hun sung ah vawt ngawl tu hi, tabang hi thong leang, mipite hong ngamlum tu hi, ci uh hi.
But they said, Not on the feast-day, least there should be a tumult among the people.
6 Bethany khua ah Simon kici miphak pa inn ah Jesus a om laitak in,
And when Jesus was at Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
7 Anne in a to na mun ah numei khat, a manham mama sathau namtui alabaster thawlkhat keng in hongpai a, Jesus lu tung pan buak hi.
there came to Him a woman with an alabaster-box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head as He was at table:
8 Ahihang a nungzui te in a mu uh ciang in thin-uk uh a, banghang in hibang ki pakvawt ziam?
but when his disciples saw it, they were some of them provoked at it, and said, Wherefore is this waste?
9 Banghangziam cile hi sathau namtui sia a mantam in zuak in, mizawng te piak tu hi, ci uh hi.
for this ointment might have been sold for a great deal of money, and given to the poor.
10 Tua thu Jesus in a heak ciang in, Banghang in numei nu nawngkaisak nu ziam? hi numei nu in ka tung ah napha vawt hi.
But Jesus, knowing what passed, said to them, Why do ye give the woman uneasiness? for she has done a good office to me:
11 Banghangziam cile mizawng te sia noma taw om tawntung hi; ahihang kei hong om tawntung ngawl khi hi.
(seeing ye have the poor always with you, but me ye have not always: ) for in pouring this ointment on my body,
12 Ka pumpi tung ah sathau namtui hong buak na sia, keima ki vui natu in hong vawt a hihi.
she has embalmed me for my burial.
13 A tatak in kong ci ciang, leitung theampo lungdamna thu ki son na theampo ah hi numei nu vawt thu zong ama phaw tawntung na in son tu uh hi, ci hi.
Verily I tell you, wherever this gospel is preached, in the whole world, what she hath done shall also be spoken of for a memorial of her.
14 Tua zawkciang Judas Iscariot a kici, nungzui sawmleni sung pan khat pa sia, thiampi lian te kung ah pai a,
About this time went one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot,
15 Amate tung ah, Jesus note hong ap leng bang nong pia tu uh ziam? ci hi. Amate in dangka sawmthum taw thukim na vawt uh hi.
to the chief priests, and said, What will ye give me, and I will deliver Him to you? and they promised him thirty pieces of silver:
16 Tua hun pan kipan Jesus a ap thei natu hunpha zong tan hi.
and from that time he sought opportunity to betray Him.
17 Tol saw ngawl anluum poai ni masabel ni in nungzui te Jesus kung ah hongpai a, paisan poai ciang in, koisung ah anneakna tu mun vawtsak tu khu ziam? ci uh hi.
Now upon the first day of the feast of unleavened bread, came the disciples to Jesus, saying, where wouldest thou have us make preparation for thee to eat the passover?
18 Jesus in, Khuapi sung ah pai tavun a, khat i tung ah hibang son vun, Syapa in ka hun cing zo hi; ka nungzui te taw na inn ah paisan poai vawt tu khi hi, ci hi, ci in sawl hi.
And He said, Go into the city, to such a man, and tell him, The master saith, my time is near, I will keep the passover at thy house with my disciples: and the disciples did as Jesus ordered them,
19 A nungzui te in Jesus sawl bangin vawt uh a, paisan poai atu kinging khol uh hi.
and prepared the passover.
20 Nitaksang ciang in Jesus sia a nungzui sawmleni te taw to uh hi.
And when the evening was come, He sat down with the twelve:
21 Amate an a neak uh laitak Jesus in, A mantak in ka ci ciang, note sung pan khat in kei hong leheak tu nu hi, ci hi.
and as they were eating, He said, Verily I tell you, that one of you will betray me.
22 Amate sia he mama uh a, khat zawkciang khat in, Topa, keima ka hi ziam? ci in dong tek uh hi.
And they were exceedingly grieved, and said to Him, every one of them, Lord, is it I?
23 Jesus in, Keima taw kuang sung a sawkkhawm sia in kei hong leheak tu hi.
and He answered, he that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, even he will betray me.
24 A ki atsa om bang in, mihing Tapa sia pai tu hi: ahihang mihing Tapa a leheak sia a hile, a mailam bing hi, ama sia piang bale phazaw hi, ci in zo kik hi.
The Son of man is going indeed as it is written concerning Him: but wo to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed; it had been good for him, if that man had never been born.
25 Topa a leheak pa Judas Ischariot in, Topa, keima khi ziam? ci in dong a, Jesus in, Na ci bang in man hi, ci in zo kik hi.
And Judas, who betrayed Him, answered and said, Master, is it I? and He said unto him, It is.
26 Amate an a neak uh laitak in, Jesus in anluum la a, thupha a piak zawkciang phel in, a nungzui te pia a, La vun a, ne vun, hisia in ka pumpi hi, ci hi.
Now as they were at table, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body:
27 Tua zawkciang hai zong la in, lungdam a ko zawkciang, amate pia a, Na vekpi in dawn vun;
and He took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it:
28 Banghangziam cile, hisia in thuciam thak taw kisai mi tampi te mawna maisakna tu in a luang ka thisan a hihi.
for this is my blood, the blood of the new covenant, which is to be shed for many for the remission of sins:
29 Ahihang kei kong ci na pan, hibang sapittui a thak sia ka Pa kumpingam sung ah note taw ka dawn kik mateng, bangmahun in dawn kik ngawl tu khi hi, ci hi.
but I tell you, that from henceforth I shall not drink of the fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in the kingdom of my Father.
30 Amate la asak zawk uh ciang, Olive mualtung zuan in pai uh hi.
And when they had sung an hymn, they went out to the mount of Olives.
31 Tua zawkciang Jesus in, Tuucingpa ka that tu a, tuu hon te kikhen in peakkeak tu hi, ci in a ki atkhol bang in, na vekpi in tu zan keima hang in thinno mama tu nu hi.
Then saith Jesus unto them, Ye will all take offence at me this night; for it is written, "I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered:"
32 Ahihang ka thawkik zawkciang in, Galilee ah note mai ah ka na paikhol tu hi, ci hi.
but after I am risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.
33 Peter in, mi theampo nangma hang in thinkiam in om kale, kei ka thinkiam batu hi, ci in zo hi.
But Peter answered and said to Him, though they should all be offended in thee, yet will I never be offended.
34 Jesus in, A tatak kong ci ciang, tu zan ak khuan ma thum vei hong nial tu ni hi, ci hi.
Jesus said unto him, Verily I tell thee that this night, before the cock crow, thou wilt deny me thrice.
35 Peter in, nangma taw ka thi tu ahizong hong nial ngawl tu khi hi, ci hi. Tasia bangma in nungzui dang theampo in zong ci uh hi.
Peter replied, though I should die with thee, yet will I not deny thee. And so likewise said all the disciples.
36 Jesus amate taw Gethsemane a kici huan ah pai uh a, Zia sung ah thu ka nget laitak ziak ah to vun, ci in a nungzui te son hi.
Then went Jesus with them to a place called Gethsemane, and saith to the disciples, Sit here, while I go there and pray:
37 Peter le Zebedee tapa ni te paipui a, thinngim mama le thuakhak na hong kipan hi.
and having taken with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, He began to be sorrowful and much distressed;
38 Tasiaciang amate tung ah, Thi tu za dong in ka thinngim hi: ziak ah om vun a, keima taw ngak nginge vun, ci hi.
and saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful even unto death, stay here and watch with me.
39 Tua mun pan in khua la zaw hiat na mun ah pai a, bok in thungen hi; Maw ka Pa, a hi thei le, hi hai sia kei taw ki pealsak tan: ahihang kei dei bang hi ngawl in nangma deina bang hi zaw tahen, ci in thungen hi.
And going a little farther, He prostrated himself, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as thou wilt.
40 A nungzui te kung ah hongpai a, a mate a mu sa in mu hi, taciang Peter kung ah, Nai khatpo zong hong ngak zo ngawl nu ziam?
And coming to the disciples, he findeth them asleep, and saith to Peter, what! could ye not watch with me one hour?
41 Ze-etna sung ah na tum ngawl natu thungen in ngak vun: thaa sia ukna nei ahihang, pumpi sia thaneam hi, ci hi.
Watch and pray that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
42 Jesus a ni veina paikik a, Maw ka Pa, a hi thei le, hi hai sia kei taw ki pealsak in: ahihang kei dei bang hi ngawl in nangma deina bang hi zaw tahen, ci in thungen hi.
And going away again, the second time He prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass from me, unless I drink it, thy will be done.
43 A nungzui te kung ah hongpai a, a mu sa ma in mu kik hi: banghangziam cile amate a mutsuak peuma uh hi.
And He came and found them asleep again, for their eyes were heavy.
44 Jesus in amate nusia in khatvei paikik a, a ngetsa bangma in a thumvei na ngen hi.
And He left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, to the same effect.
45 Tua zawkciang nungzui te kung ah hongpai a, Tu in mu vun a, tawlnga vun, mihing Tapa sia mawnei te khut ah ap tu hun hong theng zo hi.
Then He cometh to his disciples and saith, Are ye sleeping still and taking your rest? behold, the hour is come, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
46 Tho vun a, pai tawng, en vun keima hong ap sia pa hong theng zo hi, ci hi.
Rise, let us go, see the traitor is at hand.
47 Tabang in Jesus a pau laitak in, en vun, nungzui sawmleni sung pan khat a hi, Judas hongpai a, thiampi lian te le ulian te i sawl mihon tampi te zong namsau le moltum te toai in hongpai hi.
And while He was yet speaking, behold, Judas one of the twelve came, and with him a great number, with swords and staves, from the chief priests and elders of the people:
48 Jesus a ap sia pa in, ka nap sia Ama hi, man vun; ci in heaksakna pia khol zo hi.
(now he that betrayed Him, had given them a signal, saying, The man whom I shall kiss is He, lay hold of Him: )
49 Taciang Jesu kung ah manlang tak in hongpai a, Topa, na tung ah thupha om tahen; ci in nam hi.
and going directly up to Jesus, he said, Hail master, and kissed Him.
50 Jesus in, Lawm awng, banghang hongpai ni ziam? ci hi. Tua zawkciang amate hongpai a, Jesus man in paipui uh hi.
And Jesus said to him, Friend, wherefore art thou come? then they came up and laid hands on Jesus, and apprehended Him.
51 En vun, Jesus taw omkhawm khat in, a namsau dok in thiampi lian pa i naseam pa sat ahikom, a bil tawng pai hi.
And one of them that were with Jesus, stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and striking at the high priest's servant took off his ear.
52 Tasiaciang in Jesus in ama kung ah, Na namsau ama omna mun ah koikik in: banghangziam cile namsau a zam te, namsau taw ma in thi kik tu hi.
Then said Jesus to him, Put up thy sword into it's place; for they that take the sword shall perish by the sword:
53 Tu mama in ka Pa tung ah ngen thei khi hi, ci le, ngen leng vantungmi hon sawmleni sang tamzaw hong sawl tu hi, ci thu ngaisun nagwl ni ziam?
dost thou think that I cannot now apply to my Father, and He will send me more than twelve legions of angels?
54 Ahihang hibang hi tu hi, ci laithiangtho sung a ki atkholsa thu te bangbang tangtung thei tu ziam? ci hi.
but how then should the scriptures be fulfilled, which say that thus it must be?
55 Tua hun laitak in mihonpi te tung ah, Note, banghang nguta man tu bang in namsau le moltum taw kei man tu in hongpai nu ziam? biakinn sung ah thuhil in nisim note taw ka to lai hong man ngawl nu hi.
Then said Jesus to the multitudes, Ye are come out as against a thief with swords and clubs to take me, whereas I sat with you day after day teaching in the temple, and ye did not seize me: but all this is done,
56 Ahihang hi thu te sia, kamsang te atkholsa laithiangtho a tangtun natu a hihi, ci hi. Tasiaciang in a nungzui te theampo in ama nusia in, tai siat uh hi.
that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled.
57 Jesus a man te in thukhamhil te le ulian te ki kaikhop na mun thiampi sang Caiaphas kung ah paipui uh hi.
Then all the disciples deserted Him and fled. And they, that apprehended Jesus, led Him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled:
58 Peter in a khuala thithim na pan zui in thiampi sangbel pa leitual dong pai a, a tawp dong en tu in naseam te taw to khawm hi.
and Peter followed Him at a distance, to the high-priest's palace, and went in, and sat with the servants, that he might see the issue.
59 Thiampi lian te, upa te le council te theampo in Jesus that thei tu in leilot tetti te zong uh hi;
Now the chief priests and elders, and the whole council sought false-witness against Jesus, that they might put Him to death: but found none.
60 Ahihang khat zong a mu bua uh hi, leilot tetti tam mama hongpai napi khat zong a mu bua uh hi. A khakbel ciang leilot tetti ni hongpai a,
And tho' many false witnesses came, they found none to their purpose. But at last came two false witnesses and said,
61 Hisia pa in Pathian biakinn sia pheltam in nithum sung sa kik thei khi hi, ci hi.
This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.
62 Thiampi lianbelpa hong ding a, bangma zo kik ngawl tu ni ziam? Hite tetti te in bangbang in nangma hong langpan ziam? ci hi.
And the high priest stood up and said to Him, Dost thou make no answer? what do these men testify against thee? but Jesus made no reply.
63 Ahihang Jesus huthe ngawl hi. Thiampi sangbel pa in, nang Christ a kici Pathian Tapa na hile hi ngawl nong son tu in a nungta Pathian min taw kong ngen hi, ci hi.
Then the high priest said to Him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us, if thou be the Christ, the Son of God.
64 Jesus in, Na ci bang in man hi: ahihang keima in kong ci hi, tu zo mihing Tapa sia vangletna ziatsang ah to in mei tung pan hong tuaksuk na mu tu uh hi, ci hi.
Jesus saith unto him, It is as thou hast said: and I tell you, hereafter ye shall see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.
65 Tasiaciang in thiampi sangbel in a puan eaukeak a, hisia pa in Pathian min daisak in pau hi, tetti dang bang kul lai ziam? en vun, Pathian min a daisak, na za zo uh hi, ci hi.
Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy, what need have we more of witnesses? now ye have heard his blasphemy, what think ye?
66 Bangbang ngaisun nu ziam? ci a dok ciang in, amate in hisia pa in, a thi tu kilawm mawna nei hi, ci uh hi.
and they answered, He ought to be put to death.
67 Tua zawkciang a maitang cilphi uh a, sat cip in; a khut zapheak uh taw beang uh hi,
Then did they spit in his face, and beat Him about the head; and some struck Him with rods,
68 Kua na hong beang ziam? nang Christ, kamsang bang in hong son tan, ci uh hi.
saying, Divine to us, thou Christ, who it is that smote thee.
69 Peter sia leitual ah a to laitak in, naseam numei khat a kung ah hongpai a, nang zong Gelilee mi Jesus taw om khawm nu hi, ci hi.
Now Peter was sitting without in the hall, and one of the maids came to him and said, Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee:
70 Ahihang Peter in, amate theampo mai ah nial a, bang son ni ziam, ci kong ke bua hi, ci hi.
but he denied it before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest.
71 Tua zawkciang Peter sia innmai kongbiang ah pai a, a dang naseam numei khat in a mu ciang in, tua mun a om te sung ah hisia pa zong Nazareth mi Jesus taw om khawm hi, ci hi.
And he went out into the porch; after which another maid saw him, and said to them that were there, This man also was with Jesus of Nazareth:
72 Peter in kiciam na kammal taw hisia pa he ngawl khi hi, ci nial leleau hi.
and he denied a second time, and that with an oath, saying, I know not the man. And a little after, they that stood by came to Peter and said,
73 Tuazawk a ngei ngawl in tua mun ah a ding te Peter kung ah hongpai a, nang sia hi mite sung ah ki hel te khat hi lalawm ni hi; banghangziam cile na paudan taw ki he hi, ci hi.
Verily thou also art one of them, for thy speech discovers thee:
74 Tasiaciang Peter in, kiciam in, hisia pa he ngawl khi hi, ci hi. Tasia pociang akkhuang hi.
then he began to curse and to swear, saying, I know not the man. And immediately the cock crew.
75 Jesus in, Ak khuan ma thumvei dong hong nial tu ni hi, a ci sia Peter in phawkkik hi. Taciang a puasang ah pusuak in, nasiatak in kap hi.
And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, who had said to him, before the cock crow, thou wilt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly.
