Mark 8
1 In those days, when there was a very great multitude, and they had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples to himself and said to them,
I vei am ngsawk ham se, khyang khawjah Jesuha veia ngbum law be tüki he. Ami ei vai ipi am lawei u se, Jesuh naw axüisaw he jah khü lü,
2 “I have compassion on the multitude, because they have stayed with me now three days and have nothing to eat.
“Hina khyang he naw na mthimhmatei ve u, mhmüp kthum ka veia awm pängki he atuh ami ei vai ipi am ve.
3 If I send them away fasting to their home, they will faint on the way, for some of them have come a long way.”
Ei ka ami ima ka jah tüih be üng mä lam cäpa bawng u lü khuikha khai he ni; isetiüng avang he bawk bawk ta ami lawnak thuksihki,” a ti.
4 His disciples answered him, “From where could one satisfy these people with bread here in a deserted place?”
Axüisaw he naw, “U naw, hina khawkhyawng khawa khyang hijaha ei khyawh vai hmu thei khai ni?” tia ami msang.
5 He asked them, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, “Seven.”
Jesuh naw, “Muk ijah nami taki?” ti lü jah kthäh se, “Khyüh” ami ti.
6 He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground, and he took the seven loaves. Having given thanks, he broke them and gave them to his disciples to serve, and they served the multitude.
Jesuh naw khyang he mdeka khana a jah ngawsak. Acunüng muk khyüh lo lü Pamhnama veia jenaka ngthu pyen lü, jah bo lü, axüisaw he am khyang hea veia ami jah yet vaia jah pe se, axüisaw he naw ami jah yet.
7 They also had a few small fish. Having blessed them, he said to serve these also.
Nga ajaw ami tak pi Jesuh naw Pamhnama veia jenak pyen lü ami yet vaia axüisaw he a jah pet.
8 They ate and were filled. They took up seven baskets of broken pieces that were left over.
Ami van naw ei u lü phüki he. Ami ei käna axüisaw he naw mkhäm u se akpawih cä khyüh lawki.
9 Those who had eaten were about four thousand. Then he sent them away.
Eikie cun thawng phyü lawki he. Acun käna jah tüih be se
10 Immediately he entered into the boat with his disciples and came into the region of Dalmanutha.
mlawng üng axüisaw he am lut u lü Damanuta khawa citki he.
11 The Pharisees came out and began to question him, seeking from him a sign from heaven and testing him.
Pharise avang Jesuha veia law u lü ngcuhpüiki he naw, Pamhnam naw a kcangnak angsingnak vaia mhnüteinak khanaka müncankse ami kthäh.
12 He sighed deeply in his spirit and said, “Why does this generation seek a sign? Most certainly I tell you, no sign will be given to this generation.”
Cunsepi Jesuh naw a mlungmthin k’uma aktäa ngko lü, “Ise atuha kcün khyang he naw müncankse ami kthäh ni? Akcanga ka ning jah mthehki! Msingnak mat pi am ning jah mhnüh hlü ve nawng,” a ti.
13 He left them, and again entering into the boat, departed to the other side.
Jah yawk hütki naw mlawng üng lut be lü tuili cayea citki.
14 They forgot to take bread; and they did not have more than one loaf in the boat with them.
Axüisaw he naw ami ei khyawh vai muk mhnih hüt u lü mlawng üng muk mat däng taki he.
15 He warned them, saying, “Take heed: beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod.”
Jesuh naw, “Pharise hea nghngenla Heroda nghngen üng ngxungei kyu u lü ngcäiei na ua,” a ti.
16 They reasoned with one another, saying, “It’s because we have no bread.”
Axüisaw he naw, “Muk am mi ta se va hinkba pyen mäih ja,” tia ngthähki he.
17 Jesus, perceiving it, said to them, “Why do you reason that it’s because you have no bread? Do not you perceive yet or understand? Is your heart still hardened?
Jesuh naw ami ngthäh kyu jah ksing lü, “I vai muk am nami taka phäha nami ngthäh kyuki ni? Atuh pi nami mlungmthin am am nami ksing hamki aw? Nami mlung nghlang hamki aw?
18 Having eyes, do not you see? Having ears, do not you hear? Do not you remember?
Mik mah u lü am nami hmuki aw? Nghnga mah u lü am nami ngjaki aw? Am nami süm hamki aw?
19 When I broke the five loaves among the five thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” They told him, “Twelve.”
Kei naw muk mhma khyang thawng mhma phäha ka pawh üng, kpawihki cä ijaha ni nami kaw?” ti se, amimi naw, “Xaleinghngih,” ami ti.
20 “When the seven loaves fed the four thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” They told him, “Seven.”
“Acun käna muk khyüh khyang thawng kphyüa phäha ka pawh üng kpawihki cä ijah ni nami kaw?” ti se, amimi naw, “Cä khyüh,” ami ti.
21 He asked them, “Do not you understand yet?”
Jesuh naw, “Acunüng ihawkba am ksing u lü nami awmki ni?” a ti.
22 He came to Bethsaida. They brought a blind man to him and begged him to touch him.
Bethsaida khawa law u se Jesuha veia a mik müki mat khyang avang naw lawpüi u lü a hnet vaia ami nghuinak.
23 He took hold of the blind man by the hand, and brought him out of the village. When he had spat on his eyes, and laid his hands on him, he asked him if he saw anything.
Jesuh naw a mik müki a kut üng kpang lü ngnam kpunga cehpüiki naw, a mik üng msawh lü a kut a khana mtaih lü, “Ini na hmu thei,” ti lü, a kthäh.
24 He looked up, and said, “I see men, but I see them like walking trees.”
A mik müki naw jeng mang lü, “Ä, khyang he thinga mäiha cit hü u se jah hmu veng,” a ti.
25 Then again he laid his hands on his eyes. He looked intently, and was restored, and saw everyone clearly.
Jesuh naw a kut cun a mika khana mtaih beki naw, yet lü a teng süm vaia a mtheh. Acunüng a mik vai law be se, avan a ngkhaia hmu theiki.
26 He sent him away to his house, saying, “Do not enter into the village, nor tell anyone in the village.”
Jesuh naw a ima tüi be lü, “Ngnam k’uma ä cit bea,” ti lü a mtheh.
27 Jesus went out, with his disciples, into the villages of Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his disciples, “Who do men say that I am?”
Acunüng Jesuh la axüisaw he cun Kesari Philipih pei ngnam hea citki he. Lama, “Khyang he naw, ua ni ami na ngaih?” ti se,
28 They told him, “John the Baptizer, and others say Elijah, but others, one of the prophets.”
“Baptican Johan; avang naw Elijah; avang naw sahma he üngka mat mat,” ti ve u ami ti.
29 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered, “You are the Christ.”
Jesuh naw, “Nangmi naw mä ua ni nami na ngaih?” ti se, Pita naw, “Nang cun Mesijah ni,” ti lü a msang.
30 He commanded them that they should tell no one about him.
Acunüng Jesuh naw, “U pi ä mtheh ua” a ti.
31 He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
Acunüng Jesuh naw, “Khyanga Capa cun mkhuimkha khai he, axüngvai he, ktaiyü ktung he la, thum jah mtheiki he naw mah u lü, hnim khai he, acunüng amhmüp kthum üng tho law be khai,” ti lü a jah mtheh.
32 He spoke to them openly. Peter took him and began to rebuke him.
Acukba angsinga ngthu jah mtheh se Pita naw akcea khü lü a ksenak.
33 But he, turning around and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, and said, “Get behind me, Satan! For you have in mind not the things of God, but the things of men.”
Cunsepi Jesuh naw nghlat hü lü, axüisaw he jah teng lü, Pita üng, “Khawyam aw, ka vei üngka naw cita; na ngaihkyunak Pamhnama vei üngkaa am kya lü khyang üngkaa ni a kya ve,” ti lü a ksenak be.
34 He called the multitude to himself with his disciples and said to them, “Whoever wants to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
Acunüng Jesuh naw khyang he la axüisaw he a veia jah khü lü, “Upi ka veia na läk law khaia büki naw amät naw amät yawk lü, a kutlamktung kawt lü, na läk law se.
35 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it; and whoever will lose his life for my sake and the sake of the Good News will save it.
Isetiakyaüng, upi amäta xünnak küikyanei khaia büki naw mkhyüh lü, upi a xünnak keia phäha ja thangkdaw phäha mkhyühki cun naw küikyanei khai.
36 For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?
Khyang naw khawmdek avan ka na lü, a xünnak a mkhyüh üng i ngmang na khai ni? I am ngmang na.
37 For what will a man give in exchange for his life?
A xünnak a yahnak be thei vaia i am pi am thawng be thei.
38 For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man also will be ashamed of him when he comes in his Father’s glory with the holy angels.”
Hina Mhnam am ktäkie la katnaka mhmüp he üng, upi kei la keia mtheimthangnaka phäh ngkekhyakeiki he cun Khyanga Capa naw pi a Pa hlüngtainak la khankhawngsä ngcim he am a law be üng jah ngkekhyakei na be khai,” a ti.
