Matthew 17
1 And after six days Jesus taketh unto him Peter and James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into a high mountain apart:
Amhnüp khyuk käna Jesuh naw Pita, Jakuk ja a na Johan mcunga hlüngnaka a jah cehpüi.
2 And he was transfigured before them. And his face did shine as the sun: and his garments became white as snow.
Acunüng Jesuh a hmai khawnghngia mäiha vai lü, a suisak pi akvai mäiha bawk lawki.
3 And behold there appeared to them Moses and Elias talking with him.
Acunüng axüisaw kthum naw Jesuh cun Mosi ja Elijah naw ngthuheipüi ni se ami jah hmuh.
4 And Peter answering, said to Jesus: Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
Acunüng Pita naw Jesuh üng, “Bawipa aw, ahia mi ve vai hin daw ve. Na hlüei üng ta, nanga phäh mat, Mosia phäh mat, Elijaha phäh mat, sam kthum ka pha vai sü,” ti lü a mtheh.
5 And as he was yet speaking, behold a bright cloud overshadowed them. And lo, a voice out of the cloud, saying: This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased: hear ye him.
Acukba a pyen k'um üng, khawngmei bawk naw jah msung law lü, “Hin hin ka mhläkphyanak pipia ka Capa ni, ani üng ka jeki, a pyen ngai ua” tia, kthai cun ngmei üngka naw ngjakie.
6 And the disciples hearing, fell upon their face, and were very much afraid.
Axüisawe naw ami ngjak üng, aktäa kyühei u lü mce da ngmümkie.
7 And Jesus came and touched them: and said to them, Arise, and fear not.
Jesuh naw law lü jah hnetki naw, “Tho law u, käh kyüei ua,” a ti.
8 And they lifting up their eyes saw no one but only Jesus.
Ami jeng mdei üng Jesuh amät däk ve se ami hmuh.
9 And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying: Tell the vision to no man, till the Son of man be risen from the dead.
Mcung üngka naw ami kyum law be üng, Jesuh naw axüisaw he üng, “Khyanga Capa thihnak üngka naw am a thawh be hama küt üng nami hmuha mdannak hin u üng pi käh nami mtheh vai,” ti lü, a jah cük.
10 And his disciples asked him, saying: Why then do the scribes say that Elias must come first?
Axüisawe naw Jesuh üng, “Acunüng ise thumksinge naw Elijah law ma khai ami ti ni? ti u se,
11 But he answering, said to them: Elias indeed shall come, and restore all things.
Jesuh naw, “Akcanga Elijah cun law ma lü ahmäi jah pyang law khai,” a ti.
12 But I say to you, that Elias is already come, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they had a mind. So also the Son of man shall suffer from them.
Acunüngpi ka ning jah mthehki, Elijah cun law pängki ni. Cunsepi am ksingki he naw ami ngaih ngaiha ami mkhuimkha, acukba bäa Khyanga Capa pi mkhuimkha khaie” a ti.
13 Then the disciples understood, that he had spoken to them of John the Baptist.
Acunüng, axüisaw he naw Baptican Johana mawng jah mthehkia ami ksing.
14 And when he was come to the multitude, there came to him a man falling down on his knees before him, saying:
Khyang hea veia ami nghlat law be üng, khyang mat Jesuha veia law lü ngdängki naw,
15 Lord, have pity on my son, for he is a lunatic, and suffereth much: for he falleth often into the fire, and often into the water.
“Bawipa aw, ka capa mpyeneia! Kphyaw se aläa tui üng ngcum lü am ani üng mei üng lut lü khuikha ve.”
16 And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him.
“Acunakyase, na xüisawea veia ka lawpüi kyaw amimi naw pi am mdaw be khawh ve u,” a ti.
17 Then Jesus answered and said: O unbelieving and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me.
Jesuh naw, “Jumeinak am takia khyang ksee aw, ivei nami veia ka ve khai ni? Ivei ka ning jah msawkei vai ni? Kpamica ka veia lawpüi ua,” a ti.
18 And Jesus rebuked him, and the devil went out of him, and the child was cured from that hour.
Jesuh naw khawyai jüi se kpamica üngka naw lut law beki. Acunja kpamica cun daw beki.
19 Then came the disciples to Jesus secretly, and said: Why could not we cast him out?
Acunüng axüisaw he Jesuha veia ampyua law u lü, “Ise keimi naw am kami ksät khawh ni,” ti lü ami kthäh.
20 Jesus said to them: Because of your unbelief. For, amen I say to you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain, Remove from hence hither, and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible to you.
Jesuh naw, “Nami jumeinak a ngceka phäh ni, akcanga ka ning jah mthehki, anca ui teh jumnak nami tak üng, hina mcung üng ‘Caia ngpyawta’ nami ti üng ngpyawt khai. Ai pi, am nami pawh khawh käh ve khai,” ti lü, a jah mtheh.
21 But this kind is not cast out but by prayer and fasting.
Ahina ngkhaw cun ei jeihnak ja ktaiyünak am ni mkhüt khawh” a ti.
22 And when they abode together in Galilee, Jesus said to them: The Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men:
Kalilea ami ve üng Jesuh naw, “Khyanga Capa, khyang hea kut üng petnak vaia kcün pha lawki ni,”
23 And they shall kill him, and the third day he shall rise again. And they were troubled exceedingly.
hnim u se, amhnüp kthum üng tho law be khai,” ti lü jah mtheh se, axüisaw he aktäa vedamkie.
24 And when they were come to Capharnaum, they that received the didrachmas, came to Peter and said to him: Doth not your master pay the didrachmas?
Kapenawm mlüh Jesuh ja axüisaw he ami law üng, temple khawn kawkie cun Pita veia law u lü, “Nami saja naw temple khawn am pe hlüki mä? ti lü ami kthäh.
25 He said: Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying: What is thy opinion, Simon? The kings of the earth, of whom do they receive tribute or custom? of their own children, or of strangers?
Pita naw, “Ä, peki ni,” a ti. Pita im k'uma a luh üng, ‘Jesuh naw, “Sihmon Pita, ihawkba na ngaiki ni” Khawmdek Sangpuxange naw akhawn ami mkhäm üng, ua veia ni ami tä khawi? Khaw mahea veia mä, pekce khyang hea veia mä ami tä khawi? a ti,
26 And he said: Of strangers. Jesus said to him: Then the children are free.
Pita naw, “Pekce khyang hea veia,” a ti. Jesuh naw Pita üng, “Acukba ani üng, khaw mahe naw akhawn pet vai am hlü.”
27 But that we may not scandalize them, go to the sea, and cast in a hook: and that fish which shall first come up, take: and when thou hast opened its mouth, thou shalt find a stater: take that, and give it to them for me and thee.
Acunüngpi, akhawn am mi peta phäh ami mlung käh se khaia, tuia va cit lü nga va mkaiha. Akcüka na phaa nga lo lü a mka na phyen vai. Acunüng tangka mat na hmuh khai. Acun lo lü ka phäh ja na phäha temple khawn va pea,” a ti.
