John 10
1 Amen, amen I say to you: He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up another way, the same is a thief and a robber.
“Nangmih taengah rhep rhep kan thui, thohka lamloh tu vongup khuila kun pawt tih a hloeh la aka yoeng tah hlanghuen neh dingca ni.
2 But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
Tedae tu kah tudawn la aka om tah thohka longah kun.
3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.
Anih te imtawt loh thohka a ong pah tih tu loh a ol te a yaak. Amah kah tu te khaw a ming neh a khue tih a mawt.
4 And when he hath let out his own sheep, he goeth before them: and the sheep follow him, because they know his voice.
Amah kah te boeih a hlah vaengah a hmaiah cet tih tu rhoek loh a ol te a hmat uh dongah anih te a vai uh.
5 But a stranger they follow not, but fly from him, because they know not the voice of strangers.
Tedae hlanglang tah vai uh loengloeng pawt vetih hlanglang kah ol te a hmat uh pawt dongah anih taeng lamloh rhaelrham uh ni,” a ti nah.
6 This proverb Jesus spoke to them. But they understood not what he spoke to them.
Hekah thuidoeknah he amih taengah Jesuh loh a thui dae amih taengah a thui te metla a om khaw tekah rhoek loh ming uh pawh.
7 Jesus therefore said to them again: Amen, amen I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.
Te dongah Jesuh loh, “Nangmih taengah rhep rhep kan thui, Kai tah tu thohka la ka om.
8 All others, as many as have come, are thieves and robbers: and the sheep heard them not.
Kai hmaikah aka pawk boeih tah hlanghuen neh dingca rhoek ni. Tedae tu loh amih ol te a hnatun moenih.
9 I am the door. By me, if any man enter in, he shall be saved: and he shall go in, and go out, and shall find pastures.
Kai tah thohka la ka om, u khaw kai lamloh a kun atah daem vetih a voei a bal ah rhamtlim a hmuh ni.
10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I am come that they may have life, and may have it more abundantly.
Hlanghuen tah huen ham, ngawn ham neh poci sak ham pawt atah ha pawk moenih. Kai tah hingnah a khueh uh phoeiah a puehsoi dang sak ham ka pawk.
11 I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd giveth his life for his sheep.
Kai tah tudawn then la ka om. Tudawn then loh a hinglu te tu rhoek ham a hmoel.
12 But the hireling, and he that is not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and flieth: and the wolf catcheth, and scattereth the sheep:
Kutloh tah tudawn lam khaw om pawh. A tu khaw amah kah om pawh. Uithang ha pawk te a hmuh vaengah tu a hnoo tih a rhaelrham tak dongah uithang loh a poelyoe tih a thaek.
13 And the hireling flieth, because he is a hireling: and he hath no care for the sheep.
Kutloh la a om dongah tu ham anih a ngaihuet pawh.
14 I am the good shepherd; and I know mine, and mine know me.
Kai tah tudawn then la ka om dongah kamah kah rhoek te ka ming tih kamah kah rhoek loh kai m'ming uh.
15 As the Father knoweth me, and I know the Father: and I lay down my life for my sheep.
Pa loh kai m'ming tih kai loh pa te ka ming vanbangla ka hinglu te khaw tu rhoek ham ka hmoel.
16 And other sheep I have, that are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice, and there shall be one fold and one shepherd.
Tedae hekah vongup ah aka om mueh tu a tloe rhoek te ka khueh pueng. Amih khaw ka khue ham a kuek. Te vaengah kai ol te a yaak uh vetih tuping pakhat, tudawn pakhat la om uh ni.
17 Therefore doth the Father love me: because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.
Kai loh ka hinglu te koep dang ham ka voeih dongah pa loh kai n'lungnah.
18 No man taketh it away from me: but I lay it down of myself, and I have power to lay it down: and I have power to take it up again. This commandment have I received of my Father.
Kai lamkah hingnah te a rhawt uh thai moenih. Tedae te te kai kamah lamkah ni ka voeih. Te te voeih ham saithainah ka khueh tih koep lat ham khaw saithainah ka khueh. Hekah olpaek he a pa taeng lamkah ka dang,” koep a ti nah.
19 A dissension rose again among the Jews for these words.
Hekah olka kongah Judah rhoek khuiah paekboenah koep om.
20 And many of them said: He hath a devil, and is mad: why hear you him?
Te dongah amih khuikah a kumngai loh, “Rhaithae a kaem tih ang coeng, balae tih anih ol na hnatun uh?” a ti uh.
21 Others said: These are not the words of one that hath a devil: Can a devil open the eyes of the blind?
A tloe rhoek loh, “He tah rhaithae aka kaem kah olka la om mahpawh. Rhaithae loh mikdael kah mik tueng sak thai pawt maco?” a ti uh.
22 And it was the feast of the dedication at Jerusalem: and it was winter.
Te vaengah sikca la om tih Jerusalem ah imciim khotue te om.
23 And Jesus walked in the temple, in Solomon’s porch.
Te vaengah Jesuh tah Bawkim kah Solomon impup ah pongpa.
24 The Jews therefore came round about him, and said to him: How long dost thou hold our souls in suspense? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly.
Te vaengah Judah rhoek loh amah te a vael uh tih, “Mevaeng duela kaimih kah hinglu te na ngaihlih sak eh? Khrih la na om atah kaimih taengah sayalh la thui lah,” a ti na uh.
25 Jesus answered them: I speak to you, and you believe not: the works that I do in the name of my Father, they give testimony of me.
Jesuh loh amih te, “Nangmih taengah ka thui dae na tangnah uh pawh. A pa ming neh ka bibi saii long te kai kawng a phong.
26 But you do not believe, because you are not of my sheep.
Tedae kai kah tu khuiah na om uh pawt dongah na tangnah uh pawh.
27 My sheep hear my voice: and I know them, and they follow me.
Ka tu rhoek tah ka ol te a yaak uh tih kai long khaw amih te ka ming dongah kai m'vai uh.
29 That which my Father hath given me, is greater than all: and no one can snatch them out of the hand of my Father.
A pa loh kai m'paek coeng te tah tanglue la boeih om tih pa kut lamkah te a poelyoe thai moenih.
30 I and the Father are one.
Kai neh pa tah pakhat ni,” a ti nah.
31 The Jews then took up stones to stone him.
Judah rhoek loh amah te dae ham lungto koep a muk uh.
32 Jesus answered them: Many good works I have shewed you from my Father; for which of these works do you stone me?
Jesuh loh amih te, “Pa lamkah khoboe then te nangmih muep kan tueng coeng. Te khuiah mebang khoboe nen nim kai nan dae uh eh,” a ti nah.
33 The Jews answered him: For a good work we stone thee not, but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, maketh thyself God.
Judah rhoek loh amah te, “Khoboe then dongah pawt tih soehsalnah neh nang hlang la aka om loh Pathen la namah te na sa uh dongah nang te kan dae uh,” a ti na uh.
34 Jesus answered them: Is it not written in your law: I said you are gods?
Amih te Jesuh loh, “'Nangmih kah olkhueng dongah, Pathen rhoek la na om uh ka ti' tila a daek te a om moenih a?”
35 If he called them gods, to whom to word of God was spoken, and the scripture cannot be broken;
Pathen kah olka aka dang te pathen rhoek la a khue atah cacim te a phae thai moenih.
36 Do you say of him whom the Father hath sanctified and sent into the world: Thou blasphemest, because I said, I am the Son of God?
Pa loh a cil tih diklai la a tueih loh, 'Kai Pathen capa ni' ka ti dongah a salpham tila na thui uh a?
37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
A pa kah bibi te ka saii pawt atah kai n'tangnah uh boeh.
38 But if I do, though you will not believe me, believe the works: that you may know and believe that the Father is in me, and I in the Father.
Tedae ka saii atah kai nan tangnah uh pawt cakhaw kai ah a pa om tih kai khaw a pa dongah ka om tila na ming uh tih phat om ham bibi te tangnah uh,” a ti nah.
39 They sought therefore to take him; and he escaped out of their hands.
Te dongah amah te tuuk ham koep a mae uh dae amih kut lamkah loh vik cet.
40 And he went again beyond the Jordan, into that place where John was baptizing first; and there he abode.
Te phoeiah Jordan rhalvangan la koep cet tih pahoi naeh. Te hmuen ah te Johan om lamhma tih a nuem.
41 And many resorted to him, and they said: John indeed did no sign.
Te vaengah a taengla muep a paan uh tih, “Johan loh miknoek saii ngawn pawt dae Johan loh anih kawng a thui boeih te thuem,” a ti uh.
42 But all things whatsoever John said of this man, were true. And many believed in him.
Te dongah tekah rhoek loh amah te muep a tangnah uh.
