< John 6 >

1 AFTER these things Jesus went beyond the sea of Galilee, that is of Tiberias.
Te phoeiah Jesuh tah Galilee Tiberias tuili rhalvangan la cet.
2 And a vast multitude followed him, because they saw the miracles which he performed on those who were diseased.
Aka tlo rhoek soah a saii miknoek te a hmuh uh dongah amah te hlangping loh muep a vai.
3 Then Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat down with his disciple.
Te dongah Jesuh te tlang la luei tih a hnukbang rhoek taengah pahoi ngol.
4 And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
Te vaengah Judah rhoek kah yoom khotue te om tom coeng.
5 Then Jesus lifting up his eyes, and seeing that a vast concourse of people was come to him, said to Philip, Whence shall we buy loaves, that these may eat?
Jesuh loh a mik te a dai hatah a taengla hlangping muep ha lo te a hmuh. Te dongah Philip la, “He rhoek loh a caak uh ham buh te melam n'lai uh eh?” a ti nah.
6 And this he said to try him: for himself knew what he would do.
Amah loh saii ham a cai te a ming dongah anih te noemcai ham ni a ti nah.
7 Philip answered him, Two hundred denarii spent in bread would not procure a sufficiency for them, that every one of them might have a morsel.
Philip loh Jesuh te, “Denarii yahnih neh vaidam te a yool he poel boeih a doe uh amah amih ham rhoeh mahpawh,” a ti nah.
8 One of his disciples saith to him, (Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, )
A hnukbang rhoek khuikah pakhat Simon Peter kah a mana Andrew loh a taengah,
9 There is a little lad here, who hath five barley-loaves, and two small fishes: but these, what are they among so many?
“Nga lungnit neh cangtun vaidam hluem nga aka khueh tongpa ca tah om ta he, tedae he rhoek he heyet hamla balam lae a om?” a ti nah.
10 Then said Jesus, Make the men sit down. For there was plenty of grass on the spot. Therefore the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
Jesuh loh, “Hlang rhoek te ngol sak uh,” a ti nah. Tekah hmuen ah khopol muep a om dongah hlang hlangmi te thawngnga tluk ngol uh.
11 And Jesus took the loaves; and giving thanks, gave to the disciples, and the disciples to those who were sat down; and in the same manner of the fishes, as much as they chose.
Te dongah Jesuh loh vaidam te a loh tih a uem phoeiah aka vael rhoek taengah a tael. Te vanbangla nga te khaw a ngaih yet te a paek.
12 And when they had made a hearty meal, he saith to his disciples, Gather up the broken bits which are left, that not a morsel be wasted.
A hah uh phoeiah a hnukbang rhoek te, “Aka coih a nueipil rhoek te coi uh, te daengah ni pakhat khaw a poci pawt eh?,” a ti nah.
13 Then they collected them, and filled twelve baskets with fragments out of the five barley-loaves, which were more than enough for those who had eaten.
Te dongah a caak uh phoeikah cangtun vaidam panga kah a coih a nueipil te a coi uh vaengah voh hlainit dongah a sang uh.
14 When therefore the men saw the miracle which Jesus had done, they said, This is of a certainty that prophet which is to come into the world.
Miknoek a saii te hlang rhoek loh a hmuh tih, “Anih tah Diklai dongla aka pawk tonghma rhep ni,” a ti uh.
15 Then Jesus, knowing their intention to come and to seize him by force, in order to make him king, retired again into the mountain by himself alone.
Amah te tuuk tih manghai la khueh ham paan la a cai uh te Jesuh loh a ming. Te dongah amah bueng tlang la koep khoe uh.
16 So when evening was now come, his disciples went down to the sea-side,
Hlaem a pha vaengah tah a hnukbang rhoek te tuili la suntla uh.
17 and embarking on a vessel were coming across the sea to Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them.
Lawng khuila kun uh tih tuili rhalvangan kah Kapernaum la cet uh. Te phoeiah a hmuep loh a kae coeng dae Jesuh tah amih taengah pawk hlan.
18 And the sea was greatly agitated by a tempestuous wind that blew.
Te vaengah khohli puei hli tih tuili te a haeng.
19 Having rowed therefore about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they saw Jesus walking on the sea, and coming near the vessel, and they were affrighted.
Phalong pakul panga neh sawmthum tluk a kaih uh vaengah Jesuh te tuili soah cet tih lawng taengla halo te a hmuh uh tih a rhih uh.
20 But he saith to them, It is I; be not afraid.
Tedae amih te, “Kai ni rhih uh boeh,” a ti nah.
21 Then they desired to take him into the vessel: and instantly the vessel was at the land whither they were going.
Te vaengah ngaingaih uh tih amah te lawng khuila a doe uh. Te daengah a caeh thil uh kho te lawng loh tlek a pha.
22 The next day the multitude who stayed on the other side of the sea, when they saw that there was no little vessel there, except the one into which his disciples went, and that Jesus went not with his disciples in the vessel, but that his disciples went away alone;
Tekah a vuen ah tuili rhalvangan kah hlangping aka pai loh lawng pakhat bueng pawt atah teah a tloe a om pawt khaw, lawng khuiah Jesuh loh a hnukbang rhoek a caeh puei kolla a hnukbang rhoek bueng a caeh uh te khaw a hmuh uh.
23 (but now little vessels had come from Tiberias near to the spot where they had eaten bread, after the Lord had given thanks: )
Tiberias lamkah lawng a tloe rhoek tah Boeipa loh vaidam te a uem tih a caak nah uh hmuen te vat a pha uh.
24 then when the multitude saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they also went into the vessels, and came to Capernaum, in search of Jesus.
Jesuh neh a hnukbang rhoek a om pawt te hlangping loh a hmuh. Te dongah amih tah lawng khuila kun uh tih Jesuh toem ham Kapernaum la pawk uh.
25 And when they found him on the other side the sea, they said to him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither?
Amah tuili ah val a hmuh uh vaengah, “Rhabbi, me vaengah lae hela na om,” a ti nauh.
26 Jesus replied to them and said, Ye seek me, not because ye have seen the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled.
Jesuh loh amih te a doo tih, “Nangmih te rhep rhep kan thui, miknoek na hmuh uh dongah pawt tih, vaidam te na caak uh tih na hah uh dongah ni kai nan toem uh.
27 Labour not for the meat which is perishable, but for that meat which endureth unto life eternal, which the Son of man will give you: for him hath the Father sealed, even God. (aiōnios g166)
Aka poci thai caak ham pawt tih dungyan hingnah la aka naeh caak ham mah saiiuh. Te tah Pa Pathen kah kutnoek a daeng tangtae hlang capa loh nangmih m'paek ni,” a ti nah. (aiōnios g166)
28 Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?
Te dongah amah te, “Pathen kah khoboe te n'saii ham atah balae ka saii eh?,” a ti nauh.
29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye should believe on him whom he hath sent.
Jesuh loh amih te a doo tih, “A tueih hlang na tangnah uh te Pathen kah khoboe ni he,” a ti nah.
30 Then said they to him, What miracle therefore dost thou, that we may see and believe thee? what dost thou work?
Te dongah amah te, “Te koinih miknoek balae na saii? Ka hmuh uh daengah ni nang kan tangnah uh van eh. Balae na saii eh?
31 Our fathers did eat manna in the wilderness; as it is written, “He gave them bread from heaven to eat.”
A pa rhoek loh khosoek ah manna te a caak uh. Amih kah caak ham te vaan lamkah vaidam a paek te a daek tangtae om van,” a ti nauh.
32 Then said Jesus unto them, Verily, verily, I tell you, It was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the real bread from heaven.
Te dongah Jesuh loh amih te, “Nangmih te rhep, rhep kan thui, Moses loh vaan lamkah vaidam te nangmih m'paek moenih, tedae a Pa loh vaan lamkah oltak vaidam te nangmih m'paek.
33 For he that cometh down from heaven, and giveth life to the world, is the bread of God.
Pathen kah vaidam tah vaan lamkah aka rhum la om tih Diklai ah hingnah a paek,” a ti nah.
34 Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.
Te dongah amah te, “Boeipa, tekah vaidam te kaimih vawp vawp m'pae,” a ti nauh.
35 Then said Jesus to them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst more.
Jesuh loh amih te, “Kai tah hingnah vaidam ni, kai taengah aka pawk tah a bungpong tlaih pawt vetih kai aka tangnah tah tui koep hal tlaih mahpawh.
36 But I have told you, That though ye have seen me, yet ye have not believed.
Tedae nangmih loh kai nan hmuh uh lalah nan tangnah uh moenih ka ti.
37 Every individual which the Father giveth me will come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in nowise cast out.
Pa loh kai m'paek boeih te tah kamah taengla ha pawk vetih, kai taengah aka pawk te tah phawn ka haek tlaih mahpawh.
38 For I came down from heaven, not with a view to do my own will, but the will of him that sent me.
Vaan lamkah ka suntlak he kamah kongaih saii ham pawt tih kai aka tueih kah kongaih te saii ham ni.
39 Now this is the will of the Father who sent me, That every thing which he hath given me I should not be deprived of it, but raise it up at the last day.
He tah kai aka tueih kah kongaih ni. Te daengah ni kamah m'paek boeih te ka hlong pawt eh. Tedae a hnukkhueng khohnin ah te te ka thoh ni.
40 And this is the will of him that sent me, That every one who seeth the Son, and believeth on him, should have life eternal: and I will raise him up at the last day. (aiōnios g166)
He tah a pa kah kongaih ni. Te daengah ni capa aka hmu tih amah te aka tangnah boeih loh dungyan hingnah a dang eh. (aiōnios g166)
41 Then the Jews murmured against him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.
Kai tah vaan lamkah aka suntla vaidam ni,” a ti dongah amah taengah Judah rhoek loh a kohuet pauh.
42 And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how then saith this man, That I came down from heaven?
Te dongah, “Anih he Joseph capa Jesuh moenih a? “A manu neh a napa te khaw mamih loh m'ming uh. Metlam lae, 'Vaan lamkah ka rhum, ' a ti he?” a ti uh.
43 Jesus answered and said to them, Murmur not among yourselves.
Jesuh loh amih te a doo tih, “Khat neh khat kohuet uh boeh.
44 No man can come to me, except the Father who hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.
Kai aka tueih pa loh anih te a doek pawt atah kai taengah ha pawk thai moenih. Anih te kai loh a hnukkhueng khohnin ah ka thoh ni.
45 It is written in the prophets, And “they shall all be taught of God.” Every one therefore who heareth from the Father, and learneth, cometh to me.
Tonghma cabu dongah a daek te om coeng tih Pathen kah a thuituen la boeih om uh ni. Pa taengkah a yaak tih aka cang boeih tah kai taengla ha pawk.
46 Not that any man hath seen the Father, except he that is with God, he hath seen the Father.
Pathen taengah aka om pawt atah pakhat long khaw pa te a hmuh moenih. Amah long tah pa te a hmuh coeng.
47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. (aiōnios g166)
Nangmih taengah rhep rhep ka thui, aka tangnah loh dungyan hingnah a khueh. (aiōnios g166)
48 I am the bread of life.
Kai tah hingnah buh ni.
49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and they are dead.
Na pa rhoek loh khosoek ah manna a caak uh tih duek uh.
50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that any person may eat of it, and never die.
He tah vaan lamkah aka suntla vaidam la a om dongah aka ca tah duek van pawh.
51 I am the bread that giveth life, which came down from heaven: if any person eat of this bread, he shall live to eternity; and the bread indeed which I shall give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. (aiōn g165)
Kai tah vaan lamkah aka suntla tih aka hing vaidam ni. Khat khat long ni he kah vaidam he a caak atah yoeyah la hing ni. Kai tah Diklai hingnah la aka om ka pumsa ni vaidam la kam paek eh?,” a ti nah. (aiōn g165)
52 Then the Jews contended with each other, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?
Te dongah Judah rhoek tah amamih hnuei uh thae tih, “Anih loh a saa te caak ham mamih m'paek thai aya?,” a ti uh.
53 Jesus therefore said to them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in yourselves.
Te dongah Jesuh loh amih te, “Nangmih te rhep, rhep kan thui, hlang capa kah a saa te na ca uh pawt tih a thii te na ok uh pawt atah, namamih khuiah hingnah na khueh uh moenih.
54 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath life eternal: and I will raise him up at the last day. (aiōnios g166)
Ka saa aka ca tih ka thii aka o tah dungyan hingnah a khueh. A hnukkhueng khohnin ah anih te kai loh ka thoh ni. (aiōnios g166)
55 For my flesh truly is meat, and my blood truly is drink.
Ka saa tah caak tang la om tih ka thii tah ok koi tang la om.
56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, abideth in me, and I in him.
Ka saa aka ca neh ka thii aka o tah ka khuiah te naeh tih kai khaw anih khuiah ka naeh.
57 As the life-giving Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father; so he that eateth me, the same shall live by me.
Aka hing a pa loh kai n'tueih tih a pa rhangneh kai ka hing bangla ka saa aka ca tah kai rhangneh hing van ni.
58 This is the bread which came down from heaven, not as the manna your fathers did eat, and died: he that eateth this bread shall live to eternity. (aiōn g165)
He tah vaan lamkah aka suntla vaidam ni. Na pa rhoek loh a caak uh tih a duek uh bang moenih. Tekah vaidam aka ca tah yoeyah la hing ni,” a ti nah. (aiōn g165)
59 These things he spake in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
He rhoek he Kapernaum kah tunim ah a thuituen vaengah a thui.
60 Many therefore of his disciples, who heard him, said, Difficult is this discourse, who is able to fathom it?
A hnukbang rhoek loh muep a yaak uh vaengah, “Hekah olka he kaelkhak la om, u long a yakming thai eh?” a ti uh.
61 Then Jesus, conscious in himself that his disciples murmured concerning this discourse, said unto them, Doth this stumble you?
He kawngah a hnukbang rhoek a kohuet uh te Jesuh amah loh a ming dongah amih te, “He loh nangmih n'khah a?
62 What then if ye see the Son of man ascending where he was formerly?
Hlang capa te lamhma kah a om nah la a luei te na hmu uh koinih ta?
63 The Spirit is the life-giving power; the flesh contributeth nothing: the declarations which I make to you, they are spirit, and they are life.
Mueihla tah aka hing sak la om tih, pumsa tah a hong lam pataeng a hoeikhang sak moenih. Nangmih taeng ah ka thui olka rhoek te Mueihla la om tih hingnah la om.
64 But there are some of you who do not believe. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who the person was that should betray him.
Tedae nangmih khuiah aka om pakhat loh a tangnah moenih,” a ti nah. Te tah aka tangnah pawt la om tih te tah amah aka voei la a om khaw a tongnah lamlong ni Jesuh loh a ming.
65 And he said, Therefore have I informed you, That no man can come to me, except it be given him of my Father.
Te phoeiah, “A pa lamloh a taengah paek la a om pawt atah kai taengla ha pawk thai pawt te nangmih taengah kan thui he,” a ti nah.
66 From that discourse many of his disciples went away back, and no more followed him about.
Te lamkah tah a hnukbang rhoek te a hnuk la muep nong uh tih a taengah pongpa uh pawh.
67 Then said Jesus to the twelve, Will ye also go away?
Te dongah Jesuh loh hlainit rhoek te, “Nangmih khaw caeh na ngaih uh pawt nim?,” a ti nah.
68 Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, unto whom shall we go from thee? thou hast the words of eternal life. (aiōnios g166)
Amah te Simon Peter loh, “Boeipa, u taengah nim ka caeh uh eh? (aiōnios g166)
69 And we have believed and known that thou art the Messiah, the Son of the living God.
Kumhal hingnah ol na khueh te ka tangnah uh dongah nang tah Pathen kah hlangcim ni tila ka ming uh,” a ti nah.
70 Jesus answered them, Have I not chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?
Jesuh loh amih te, “Kai loh nangmih hlainit te kan tuek moenih a? Tedae nangmih khuiah rhaithae pakhat om,” a ti nah.
71 Now he spake of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon: for this man was ready to betray him, though he was one of the twelve.
Simon capa Judas Iskariot ni a thui. Hlainit khuiah anih pakhat loh Jesuh te voeih hamla cai.
