< Luke 18 >

1 Nikhat Yeshuan aseijuite ataojing nadiu leh alhahdai lou nadiu vetsahnan thusim khat aseipeh e.
Now he also told them a parable, that we should continually pray and not cease,
2 “Khopi khat a hin thutan khat Pathen ginglou chule miho khohsah na jong neilou khat aumin ahi.
saying: “There was a certain judge in a certain city, who did not fear God and did not respect man.
3 Chuche khopia meithai khat chu kinong chel'in ahung jingin, ‘Kagalmi hotoh kakiboinau hi thu adih in neitan peh'in,’ ahung tijin ahi.
But there was a certain widow in that city, and she went to him, saying, ‘Vindicate me from my adversary.’
4 Thutan pan phat chomkhat amanu chu isahlou tah in anakoiyin, ahin achainakeiyin hitin akihoulim in, Keiman Pathen kaging pon ahiloule miho jong hole tilou kahi,
And he refused to do so for a long time. But afterwards, he said within himself: ‘Even though I do not fear God, nor respect man,
5 ahivangin hiche numei nu hin eisungol lhatai. Keiman thu adih'a tanlhah peh ahinadin vetpeh inge. Ajeh chu amanu hin athilthum jinga kon hin ei sulungvai lhatai,” ati.
yet because this widow is pestering me, I will vindicate her, lest by returning, she may, in the end, wear me out.’”
6 Chuin Pakaiyin aseiyin, “Hiche chondihlou thutanpa a konin kihil un.”
Then the Lord said: “Listen to what the unjust judge said.
7 “Ama jengin jong achaina a thu adih'a tandia ahin gellhah ahi. Hijeh a chu Pathen in alhenchom te, ama koma asun ajan'a kapjing techu thu adih'a atanpeh ding ahi ti nagel lou u ham? Amaho chu donlouvin koijing in te natim?
So then, will not God grant the vindication of his elect, who cry out to him day and night? Or will he continue to endure them?
8 Kaseipeh nahiuve, aman kinloitah a thu adih'a atanpeh ding ahi! Ahinlah Mihem Chapa hung kit teng, leiset chunga hin mi ijat tahsan nei mudoh intem?” ati.
I tell you that he will quickly bring vindication to them. Yet truly, when the Son of man returns, do you think that he will find faith on earth?”
9 Chuin Yeshuan hiche thusim hi mi konkhat ama chonphatna a kisonga midang musit ho dingin aseiye:
Now about certain persons who consider themselves to be just, while disdaining others, he told also this parable:
10 “Mi ni houin ah taona mangin ache lhon'e. Khat chu Pharisee mi ahin, chule adang khatpa chu musit umtah kaidong ahi.
“Two men ascended to the temple, in order to pray. One was a Pharisee, and the other was a tax collector.
11 Pharisee mipa chu adingin hitin ataove: ‘Kakipah'e Pathen, adangho banga chonse kahilou jeh in. Ajeh chu lepthol in kabol pon, kachonse pon, chule jonthanhoi jong kabolpoi. Keima atahbeh in khuche kaidongpa tobang kahipoi!
Standing, the Pharisee prayed within himself in this way: ‘O God, I give thanks to you that I am not like the rest of men: robbers, unjust, adulterers, even as this tax collector chooses to be.
12 Keiman hapta khat in nivei an kangol'in, kasum mu jat a konin soma khat kapei,’ ati.
I fast twice between Sabbaths. I give tithes from all that I possess.’
13 Ahivangin kaidong pachu gamlatah a adingin chule amit jeng'a jong vanlam ve ngamlouvin ataove. Chusang chun lungkham tah in aman a-op achum'in hitin aseiye, ‘O’ Pathen, neilungset in, ijeh inem itile chonse kahibouve, ati.
And the tax collector, standing at a distance, was not willing to even lift up his eyes to heaven. But he struck his chest, saying: ‘O God, be merciful to me, a sinner.’
14 Kaseipeh nahiuve, Pharisee pa hilou, hiche chonsepa chu Pathen ang-ah them achangin inlam akiletai. Ijeh inem itile ama kichoisang hochu suhnem'a umding, chule akineosah hochu dopsang'a umdiu ahi,” ati.
I say to you, this one descended to his house justified, but not the other. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled; and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.”
15 Nikhat nule pa phabep in achateu chapang neocha chaho chu Yeshuan atham'a phatthei aboh dingin ahin puiyun ahi. Ahivangin aseijuiten hichu amuphat un, anule apateu koma chun ama nasuboi bep uve tin ahouse uvin ahi.
And they were bringing little children to him, so that he might touch them. And when the disciples saw this, they rebuked them.
16 Chuin Yeshuan chapang ho chu akouvin chule aseijuite hengah aseitai, “Chapang ho chu kahengah hung uhen. Jahda hih'un! Ajeh chu Pathen Lenggam chu hiche chapang neocha tobanghoa ding bou ahi.
But Jesus, calling them together, said: “Allow the children to come to me, and do not be an obstacle to them. For of such is the kingdom of God.
17 Thutah kaseipeh nahiuve, koi hileh chapang neocha banga Pathen Lenggam sanglou chu lutlou hel ding ahi,” ati.
Amen, I say to you, whoever will not accept the kingdom of God like a child, will not enter into it.”
18 Khatvei hou lamkai khat hin hiche thudoh hi adonge: “Houhil pha, tonsot hinna kanei thei na dinga ipi kabol ding ham?” ati. (aiōnios g166)
And a certain leader questioned him, saying: “Good teacher, what should I do to possess eternal life?” (aiōnios g166)
19 “Ipi bol'a apha tia nei kou ham” tin aledoh in, Pathen bouseh dihtah'a pha ahi.
Then Jesus said to him: “Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone.
20 Ahin nathudoh donbut nan, thupeh ho nahet chula: “Nangman jon bol hih'in, tolthat hih'in, gucha hih'in, jouvin mi hehse hih in, nanu napa jabol in,” ati.
You know the commandments: You shall not kill. You shall not commit adultery. You shall not steal. You shall not give false testimony. Honor your father and mother.”
21 Mipan adonbut in, “Hiche thupeh ho jouse hi kachapan laiya pat kajui sohkei ahitai,” ati.
And he said, “I have kept all these things from my youth.”
22 Yeshuan adonbutna thu ajah phat chun, hitin aseitai, “Nabol loulai thilkhat aume. Nanei jouse joh in lang hiche sum chu mivaicha ho pen, chutileh van'a gou nanei ding ahi. Chuteng hungin, neijuiyin,” ati.
And when Jesus heard this, he said to him: “One thing is still lacking for you. Sell all the things that you have, and give to the poor. And then you will have treasure in heaven. And come, follow me.”
23 Ahivangin mipa chun hichu ajahdoh phat in alung kham lheh tan ahi, ijeh inem itile amachu haosatah ahi.
When he heard this, he became very sorrowful. For he was very rich.
24 Yeshuan hichu amuphat in, aseitai, “Mihaosa Pathen Lenggam alut ding hi iti hah hitam!”
Then Jesus, seeing him brought to sorrow, said: “How difficult it is for those who have money to enter into the kingdom of God!
25 “Atahbeh in, heobil hom'a sangongsao alut galkai ding hi mihaosa Pathen Lenggam a alut ding sangin abaijoi,” ati.
For it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a wealthy man to enter into the kingdom of God.”
26 Hiche akisei jajouse chun aseiyun, “Achutileh vannoi leiset'a koiham huhhing na chang jou ding?” atiuve.
And those who were listening to this said, “Then who is able to be saved?”
27 Aman adonbut in, “Mihem dinga hithei lou chu Pathen dinga hithei ahi,” ati.
He said to them, “Things that are impossible with men are possible with God.”
28 Peter in aseiyin, “Keihon nangma jui dingin ka-in'u kadalhauve,” ati.
And Peter said, “Behold, we have left everything, and we have followed you.”
29 Yeshuan adonbut in, “Henge” chuleh ka lhamon nahiuve, “Koihileh Pathen Lenggam jal'a a'in ham, ajinu ham, asopiho ham, ahiloule anu apa ham achate ham pedoh chan chu,
And he said to them: “Amen, I say to you, there is no one who has left behind home, or parents, or brothers, or a wife, or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God,
30 tamtahvei tuhinkhoa hi lepeh'a umdiu chule ahunglhung ding khang'a jong tonsot hinkemlou amuding'u ahi,” ati. (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
who will not receive much more in this time, and in the age to come eternal life.” (aiōn g165, aiōnios g166)
31 Seijui somleni ho atumbeh'in apuidoh in, Yeshuan ajah uva aseiye, “Ngaiyun, eiho Jerusalem chetou ding ihiuve, Mihem Chapa chungchang thudol'a themgao thusei jouse guilhun na ding mun chu ahi.
Then Jesus took the twelve aside, and he said to them: “Behold, we are ascending to Jerusalem, and everything shall be completed which was written by the prophets about the Son of man.
32 Amachu Rome te khut'a pehdoh'a umding ahi, chule amachu tot thanghoi'a umding, jachat umtah'a kibol ding, chil kisetkhum ding ahi.
For he will be handed over to the Gentiles, and he will be mocked and scourged and spit upon.
33 Amahon avoh'uva chule athadiu ahi, ahivanga anithum nileh thoukit ding ahi,” ati.
And after they have scourged him, they will kill him. And on the third day, he will rise again.”
34 Ahin, amahon hitiho thuhi khatcha ahethei pouve. Athusei ho athupije chu amaho a kona ki im mang ahi, hijeh a chu athusei chu amattoh thei lou u ahitai.
But they understood none of these things. For this word was concealed from them, and they did not understand the things that were said.
35 Yeshuan Jericho anaisuh lai hin, mitcho khutdo khat lamsih'ah ana touve.
Now it happened that, as he was approaching Jericho, a certain blind man was sitting beside the way, begging.
36 Aman mihonpi kijot khuto gin ajah phat in, ipi thu hitam ti adongin ahi.
And when he heard the multitude passing by, he asked what this was.
37 Nazereth Yeshuan hikom chu ahopa ahi ti aseipeh tauve.
And they told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.
38 Hijeh chun amapa ahung eojah tan, “Yeshua, David chapa, neilungset in!” ahintin ahi.
And he cried out, saying, “Jesus, Son of David, take pity on me!”
39 “Thip'in” tin masang langa miho chun ahutot tauvin ahi. Ahivangin ama awgingjep in ahapen cheh tan, “David Chapa, neilungset in!” ati.
And those who were passing by rebuked him, so that he would be silent. Yet truly, he cried out all the more, “Son of David, take pity on me!”
40 Yeshuan ajahdoh phat in, adingin mipa chu ahinpui lut diuvin athupeh tai. Mipa ahung nai toh lhonin Yeshuan adongin,
Then Jesus, standing still, ordered him to be brought to him. And when he had drawn near, he questioned him,
41 “Ipi nabolpeh leng natim?” tin adong tai. Aman, “Pakai, kho muleng kati!” ati.
saying, “What do you want, that I might do for you?” So he said, “Lord, that I may see.”
42 Chuin Yeshuan aseiyin, “Aphai, kho mutan! Natahsan in nadamsah ahitai,” ati.
And Jesus said to him: “Look around. Your faith has saved you.”
43 Apettah chun mipa chun kho amutai chuleh amapan Yeshua nung ajuiyin Pathen avahchoi tai. Chuleh amujousen jong Pathen avahchoi cheh tauve.
And immediately he saw. And he followed him, magnifying God. And all the people, when they saw this, gave praise to God.
