Luke 7
1 And when he had finished all his words in the hearing of the people, he entered into Capharnaum.
Jesuh naw ngthu pyen law päng lü Kapenawma citki.
2 And the servant of a certain centurion, who was dear to him, being sick, was ready to die.
Acunüng Romah ngvai naw a jawngnaka m'ya mat thi law hlü khaia a mhnat awmki.
3 And when he had heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the ancients of the Jews, desiring him to come and heal his servant.
Jesuha mawng a ngjak üng, a m'ya mdaw law be khaia, Jesuh va nghui na u lü, khü khai hea, Judah ngvai he a jah tüih.
4 And when they came to Jesus, they besought him earnestly, saying to him: He is worthy that thou shouldest do this for him.
Jesuha veia law u lü aktäa nghui naki he naw, “Hina khyang ta na kpüi vaia ngkawi ve,
5 For he loveth our nation; and he hath built us a synagogue.
ani cun mi khyang he jah jawng na lü, Sinakok pi jah sak peki ni,” ami ti.
6 And Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent his friends to him, saying: Lord, trouble not thyself; for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof.
Acuna Jesuh ami veia citki. Acunüng a pha law tawm tawm la Romah ngvai naw a püi he jah tüi lü, “Bawipa aw, ka im na luhnak ngkawi vaia am kya ve, ä kha heia,
7 For which cause neither did I think myself worthy to come to thee; but say the word, and my servant shall be healed.
acunakyase, na veia ka law vaia pi ka ngkawikia am ngai kyu veng, ngthu däng pyen lü, ka m'ya daw be khai ni.
8 For I also am a man subject to authority, having under me soldiers: and I say to one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doth it.
“Isetiakyaküng, kei haw anaa takia keha ka awmki. Ka keha yekap he awmki he, mat am ‘cita’ ka ti üng citki, akce mat am ‘lawa’ ka ti üng lawki, ka m'ya am hin pawha ka ti üng pawhki,” a ti.
9 Which Jesus hearing, marvelled: and turning about to the multitude that followed him, he said: Amen I say to you, I have not found so great faith, not even in Israel.
Jesuh naw acun a ngjak üng, cäieiki naw, mang hü lü, amät läkia khyang he üng, “Isarel he üng pi ahikba sena jumeiki am hmu khawi nawng,” a ti.
10 And they who were sent, being returned to the house, found the servant whole who had been sick.
A khyang tüihe ima ami ceh be üng, m'ya cun daw be se ami hmuh.
11 And it came to pass afterwards, that he went into a city that is called Naim; and there went with him his disciples, and a great multitude.
Acun käna Jesuh Nai ami tia mlüha cit se, axüisaw he la khyang khawjah a veia cit hngaki he.
12 And when he came nigh to the gate of the city, behold a dead man was carried out, the only son of his mother; and she was a widow: and a great multitude of the city was with her.
Mlüh mkawt pei a pha law üng, hmeinu naw mat däng a canak, khyang kthi ami yawknak kawt law u se, mlüh üngka he khawjah law hngaki he.
13 Whom when the Lord had seen, being moved with mercy towards her, he said to her: Weep not.
Acunüng, Bawipa naw acuna hmeinu a hmuh üng, m'yenei leng leng lü, “Ä kyapa” a ti.
14 And he came near and touched the bier. And they that carried it, stood still. And he said: Young man, I say to thee, arise.
Jesuh naw law lü, yawkkawng hnet se, kawtki he ngdüiki he. Acunüng Jesuh naw, “Cawngpyang, tho law, ti veng,” ti se,
15 And he that was dead, sat up, and began to speak. And he gave him to his mother.
akthi cun tho law lü ngthuhei law se, Jesuh naw a nu üng a pet.
16 And there came a fear on them all: and they glorified God, saying: A great prophet is risen up among us: and, God hath visited his people.
Acunüng, ami van kyü lawki he naw, Pamhnam mküimto u lü, “Mi ksunga sahma akyäp awm law ve; Pamhnam a khyang he jah küikyan khaia law ve,” ami ti.
17 And this rumour of him went forth throughout all Judea, and throughout all the country round about.
Acuna Jesuha mawng cun khaw avan la a pipeia hne avan üng ngthang hüki.
18 And John’s disciples told him of all these things.
Johana axüisaw he naw acuna mawng avan cun Johan üng ami mtheh.
19 And John called to him two of his disciples, and sent them to Jesus, saying: Art thou he that art to come; or look we for another?
Acunüng, Johan naw axüisaw nghngih jah khüki naw, Bawipa veia jah tüi lü, “Johan naw law khai a tia khyanga na kyaki aw? Akce kami na äpei khai aw?” tia a jah va kthähsak.
20 And when the men were come unto him, they said: John the Baptist hath sent us to thee, saying: Art thou he that art to come; or look we for another?
Acunüng, Jesuh veia law u lü, “Law khai mata na kyaki aw? Akce kami na äpei khai aw? tia ni kthäh vaia baptican Johan naw na veia a jah tüih law ni,” ami ti.
21 (And in that same hour, he cured many of their diseases, and hurts, and evil spirits: and to many that were blind he gave sight.)
Acunapät üng Jesuh naw, a jah huieie, natnak khihlau akce kcea jah awmnak he, ngmüimkhya ksea awmnak he khawjah jah mdaw be lü, amikmü khawjah a jah mdeisak be.
22 And answering, he said to them: Go and relate to John what you have heard and seen: the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are made clean, the deaf hear, the dead rise again, to the poor the gospel is preached:
Jesuh naw, “Citbe u lü, nami hmuh la nami sim he Johan üng jah va mtheh ua; amikmüe mdei law be ve u, akhawkxo he ami khaw am cit ve u, mnehkse mnehkie ngcim be ve u, ami nghnga kpangki he pi ami nghnga ngjang be ve u, akthi he xüng law be ve u, khuikha m’yetsekiea veia thangkdaw sanga kya ve.
23 And blessed is he whosoever shall not be scandalized in me.
“Upi, keia phäha, a mlung am hlawtlatki ta a jo sen ve,” a ti.
24 And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to speak to the multitudes concerning John. What went ye out into the desert to see? a reed shaken with the wind?
Johana xüisaw he ami ktawih be käna, Jesuh naw Johana mawng khyang he üng jah mtheh lü, “Johana veia, khawkhyawng khawa nami ceh üng, i teng khaia ni nami ceh? Khawkhia aksün khuhlip teng khaia aw nami ceh?
25 But what went you out to see? a man clothed in soft garments? Behold they that are in costly apparel and live delicately, are in the houses of kings.
“Am acunüng i teng khaia ni nami ceh? Suisak akdaw suisaki teng khaia aw nami ceh? Suisak akdaw suisaki he cun sangpuxang hea ima ni ami awm khawi.
26 But what went you out to see? a prophet? Yea, I say to you, and more than a prophet.
“Am acunüng sahma teng khaia aw nami ceh? Ä, ka ning jah mtheki, sahmaa kthaka pi kyäp bawki hia awm ve,
27 This is he of whom it is written: Behold I send my angel before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.
cangcim naw ‘Ngaia ka khyang na ma ka tüih, ani naw na maa lam pyang khai’ tia a mawng ami yuk cen ahina Johan ni.
28 For I say to you: Amongst those that are born of women, there is not a greater prophet that John the Baptist. But he that is the lesser in the kingdom of God, is greater than he.
“Ka ning jah mthehki, nghnumi hea ca avan üng Johana kyäp bawki sahma am awm naw; cunsepi, Pamhnama khawa akjaw säih pi Johana kthaka kyäp bawki ni,” a ti.
29 And all the people hearing, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with John’s baptism.
Acunüng, khyang avan naw ami ngjak; aktunga ngcawnklawk he cun Pamhnama ngsungpyunak vaia Johana baptican khanki he.
30 But the Pharisees and the lawyers despised the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized by him.
Cunsepi, Pharise he la, thum mksingki he naw, ami hama Pamhnama pyan ma u lü, Johana baptican ä khanki he.
31 And the Lord said: Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like?
Jesuh naw pyen be tü lü, “Tuhkbäiha ngsawn he hin i am ni ka jah msuimcäp kawm? Ia mäih ni ami law?
32 They are like to children sitting in the marketplace, and speaking one to another, and saying: We have piped to you, and you have not danced: we have mourned, and you have not wept.
“Ahin he cun Anghmawe jawihtuknaka ngawki he, ngkhü kyu u lü, ‘Cambumak pülün ning jah tum pe ung se am nami nglamki, yawk la sa ung se pi am nami kyapki’ ti am tängki he.
33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and you say: He hath a devil.
“Baptican Johan a law üng ei nghmü lü capyitui am aw se, ‘khawyaia awmnak’ nami tiki.
34 The Son of man is come eating and drinking: and you say: Behold a man that is a glutton and a drinker of wine, a friend of publicans and sinners.
“Khyanga Capa law lü ei aw se, ‘Teng u, eiaw aih ve, ngcawnklawk he la khyang kse hea püi cen’ nami tiki.
35 And wisdom is justified by all her children.
“Mhnama ksingkhyapnak cun dokhameiki he naw a cangnak mdangki he ni,” a ti.
36 And one of the Pharisees desired him to eat with him. And he went into the house of the Pharisee, and sat down to meat.
Pharise mat naw a veia buh ei khaia khü se, Jesuh Pharisea ima lut lü buh ei khaia ngawki.
37 And behold a woman that was in the city, a sinner, when she knew that he sat at meat in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster box of ointment;
Acuna mlüh üng nghnumi kse mat awmki naw Pharisea ima Jesuh buh ei lü awmki ti, a ksing üng, alabasta um üng situi ngui lawpüiki naw,
38 And standing behind at his feet, she began to wash his feet, with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
Jesuha hnu, a khaw kunga kyap lü ngdüiki. A miktui naw a khawpha msüi se, a lusam am xüt lü, a khawpha mhnamki naw, situi ng'ui am a hluk.
39 And the Pharisee, who had invited him, seeing it, spoke within himself, saying: This man, if he were a prophet, would know surely who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him, that she is a sinner.
Pharise naw hmu lü, a mlung k'uma, “Hin hin sahma kcanga a kya vai sü, hnetkia nghnuminu hin u ni, ia mäih ni ti ksing khai sü. Khyangka kyalang se,” a ti.
40 And Jesus answering, said to him: Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. But he said: Master, say it.
Jesuh naw, “Sihmon, na veia ngthu mat ka pyen vai awm ve,” ti lü a msang. Acunüng Sihmon naw, “Saja aw pyena,” a ti.
41 A certain creditor had two debtors, the one who owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty.
Jesuh naw, “Ngui jah kpuki, mat naw, khyang nghngih üng ngui a jah kpu; mat üng phya mhma a kpu, mat am mhmakip a kpu.
42 And whereas they had not wherewith to pay, he forgave them both. Which therefore of the two loveth him most?
“Ani thungnak be vai am ta ni se, ani nghngih a jah mhlät. Acunüng, acun xawi üng u naw jawng na bawk khai ni?” a ti.
43 Simon answering, said: I suppose that he to whom he forgave most. And he said to him: Thou hast judged rightly.
Sihmon naw, “A mhlät däm naw jawng na bawk khaia ngai veng,” ti lü, msang se, Jesuh naw, “Cang veki,” a ti.
44 And turning to the woman, he said unto Simon: Dost thou see this woman? I entered into thy house, thou gavest me no water for my feet; but she with tears hath washed my feet, and with her hairs hath wiped them.
Acunüng, nghnumi nghlat si lü, Sihmona veia, “Hina nghnuminu na hmuki aw? Na ima lut law ni se, ka khaw ka mthinak vaia tui am na na peki, hina nghnuminu naw a miktui am ka khaw mthi lü, a lusam am xütki.
45 Thou gavest me no kiss; but she, since she came in, hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
“Nang naw am na na mhnamki, hina nghnumi naw ka luh law üng tün lü ka khawpha am pyai lü mhnamki.
46 My head with oil thou didst not anoint; but she with ointment hath anointed my feet.
“Nang naw ka lü situi am na hluki, hina nghnumi naw ka khawpha situi am hluki.
47 Wherefore I say to thee: Many sins are forgiven her, because she hath loved much. But to whom less is forgiven, he loveth less.
“Acunakyase, ning mtheh veng, aktäa jawng nakia kyase, a katnak he khawjah cun mhlät pänga kya ve. A katnak ajaw däng mhlät naw ajawha jawng naki,” a ti.
48 And he said to her: Thy sins are forgiven thee.
Acunüng, Jesuh naw nghnumi üng, “Na katnak he jah mhlät pänga kya ve,” a ti.
49 And they that sat at meat with him began to say within themselves: Who is this that forgiveth sins also?
Buh a eipüi he naw, “Katnak pi jah mhlätki hin u ni,” ami ti.
50 And he said to the woman: Thy faith hath made thee safe, go in peace.
Acunüng, Jesuh naw nghnumi üng, “Na jumnak naw ning küikyan ve, dim’yenak am cita,” a ti.
