Luke 15
1 And all the tax collectors and sinners were coming near to Him, to hear Him,
Tamuk kacawngnaw hoi tamikayonnaw ni Bawipa e cangkhainae thai hanelah ama koe a tho awh.
2 and the Pharisees and the scribes were murmuring, saying, “This One receives sinners, and eats with them.”
Farasi hoi cakathutkungnaw niyah hete tami teh tamikayonnaw hoi rei a o, ahnimouh hoi cungtalah bu rei a ca telah yon a pen awh.
3 And He spoke to them this allegory, saying,
Hatnavah bangnuenae lawk a dei e teh nangmouh dawk tami buetbuet touh ni tu cum touh a tawn.
4 “What man of you having one hundred sheep, and having lost one out of them, does not leave behind the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go on after the lost one, until he may find it?
Hotnaw thung dawk e tu buet touh kahmat pawiteh 99 touh e tunaw hah kahrawngum a ta vaiteh kahmat e tu buet touh a hmu hoeh roukrak a cei teh tawng laipalah ao han maw.
5 And having found, he lays [it] on his shoulders rejoicing,
A hmu torei teh a lunghawi teh a loung dawk a thueng teh,
6 and having come into the house, he calls together the friends and the neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me, because I found my sheep—the lost one.
im a pha torei teh a huikonaw hoi a imrinaw a kaw teh kahmat e tu bout ka hmu toe, cungtalah konawm khai awh haw telah a dei han.
7 I say to you that [more] joy will be in Heaven over one sinner converting, rather than over ninety-nine righteous men who have no need of conversion.
Hot patetlah pankângai han ka tawn hoeh e tami 99 touh hlakvah pankângai e tamikayon buet touh koe kalvan vah a lunghawinae bet ao hnawn telah a ti.
8 Or what woman having ten drachmas, if she may lose one drachma, does not light a lamp, and sweep the house, and seek carefully until she may find?
Hottelah napui buet touh ni phoisa phek hra touh a tawn. Phek touh kahmat pawiteh hmai paang vaiteh a hmu hoeh roukrak imthungkhu imka pâthoun vaiteh kahawicalah tawng laipalah ao han maw.
9 And having found, she calls together the female friends and the neighbors, saying, Rejoice with me, for I found the drachma that I lost.
A hmu torei teh a huikonaw hoi imrinaw a kaw vaiteh kahmat e phoisa bout ka hmu toe, cungtalah konawm khai awh haw telah ati han.
10 So I say to you, joy comes before the messengers of God over one sinner converting.”
Hot patetvanlah, Cathut e kalvantaminaw ni pankângai e tamikayon buet touh dawkvah lunghawinae a tawn awh, telah atipouh.
11 And He said, “A certain man had two sons,
Bout a dei e teh tami buet touh ni ca tongpa kahni touh a tawn,
12 and the younger of them said to the father, Father, give me the portion of the substance falling to [me], and he divided to them the living.
A ca cahnoung ni a na pa koe a cei teh apa, ka hmu hane kawi râw na kapek pouh leih telah a kâhei teh a na pa ni hnopainaw pueng a kapek teh a poe.
13 And not many days after, having gathered all together, the younger son went abroad to a far country, and there he scattered his substance, living riotously;
Hathnukkhu hoi a ca cahnoung ni amae hnopainaw pueng a la teh kahlatpoung e ram dawk a cei teh hote ram dawkvah talai nawmnae dawk a ngai patetlah kho a sak teh hnopainaw pueng koung a kaseikasak.
14 and he having spent all, there came a mighty famine on that country, and himself began to be in want;
A tawn e hnopai koung a pâbaw hnukkhu hote ram dawk takang puenghoi a tho teh puenghoi roedengnae koe a pha.
15 and having gone on, he joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into the fields to feed pigs,
Hatdawkvah hote ram dawk tami buet touh koe o hanelah a cei teh hote tami ni vok ring hanelah a patoun.
16 and he was desirous to fill his belly from the husks that the pigs were eating, and no one was giving to him.
Ahni teh vok rawca patenghai ca hane ngai totouh a vonhlam, hatei apinihai rawca banghai poe awh hoeh.
17 And having come to himself, he said, How many hired workers of my father have a superabundance of bread, and I am perishing here with hunger!
Hatnavah a lung vuk a ang teh apa im vah aphu hmu hanelah hoi a ta e a sannaw ni boeba hai cat laipalah ca hane a tawn, kai teh hivah vonhlam hoi ka o.
18 Having risen, I will go on to my father, and will say to him, Father, I sinned—to Heaven, and before you,
Ka thaw vaiteh apa koe ka cei han. Apa, kai ni kalvan hoi na hmaitung vah ka yon toe.
19 and I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me as one of your hired workers.
Na ca ti hanelah ka kamcu hoeh. Na san buet touh lah o hanelah na tat lawih ka ti han a ti.
20 And having risen, he went to his own father, and he being yet far distant, his father saw him, and was moved with compassion, and having ran he fell on his neck and kissed him;
Hatdawkvah, a na pa koe ban hanelah a kamthaw. Lam ahlapoungnae koe a tho e a na pa ni a hmu navah a pahren dawk a yawng sin teh a takawi teh a paco.
21 and the son said to him, Father, I sinned—to Heaven, and before you, and I am no longer worthy to be called your son.
A capa ni vah a Pa kalvan koe thoseh, na hmaitung thoseh, ka yon toe. Na ca ti han ka kamcu hoeh toe telah a ti.
22 And the father said to his servants, Bring forth the foremost robe, and clothe him, and give a ring for his hand, and sandals for the feet;
A na pa ni vah aphu kaawm poung e angki lat nateh kho sak awh, a kut dawk kuthrawt buen sak awh.
23 and having brought the fatted calf, kill [it], and having eaten, we may be merry,
Khokkhawm hai khawm sak awh, hahoi Maito ca kathâwpoung e lat nateh thet awh, kanawm poung lah pawi sak awh sei.
24 because this son of mine was dead, and lived again, and he was lost, and was found; and they began to be merry.
Bangkongtetpawiteh ka capa teh a due toe, hatei atu bout a hring. A kahma, hateiteh atu bout ka hmu toe ati. Hottelah hoi pawi teh a kamtawng awh.
25 And his elder son was in a field, and as, coming, he drew near to the house, he heard music and dancing,
A capa kacue ni law hoi a ban teh im teng a pha navah ratoung tamawi lawk hoi lamtu e a thai.
26 and having called near one of the young men, he was inquiring what these things might be,
A san buet touh a kaw teh bangmaw na sak awh, telah a pacei.
27 and he said to him, Your brother has arrived, and your father killed the fatted calf, because he received him back in health.
A san ni vah na nawngha ka dam lahoi im bout a tho dawkvah, na pa ni maito ca kathâw e a thei pouh telah atipouh. A capa kacue e teh a lungphuen teh im dawkvah kâen laipalah ao.
28 And he was angry, and would not go in, therefore his father, having come forth, was pleading him;
A na pa ni capa kacue koe a cei teh kâen leih telah a pasawt.
29 and he answering said to the father, Behold, so many years I serve you, and never did I transgress your command, and you never gave to me a kid that I might make merry with my friends;
A capa kacue ni hai kai ni atueng moi kasawlah apa, nange san patetlah thaw ka tawk, vai touh boehai nange kâpoelawk ka tapoe hoeh. Hateiteh kai ni ka huinaw hoi cungtalah nawmnae sak hanelah hmae boehai na poe hoeh.
30 but when your son—this one who devoured your living with prostitutes—came, you killed to him the fatted calf.
Ka kâyawt e napuinaw hoi kaawm ni teh na hnopai kaseikasak e na ca cahnoung, im bout a pha torei teh maito ca kathâw kathâw na thei pouh telah a ti.
31 And he said to him, Child, you are always with me, and all my things are yours;
A na pa ni, ka ca nang teh ka im vah yungyoe na o teh ka tawn e hnopueng nange hno lah ao.
32 but to be merry, and to be glad, it was necessary, because this your brother was dead, and lived again, he was lost, and was found.”
Hatei na nawngha teh a due eiteh, atu bout a hring. A kahma eiteh atu bout hmu toe. Hatdawkvah lunghawi khai hane roeroe lah ao telah a na pa ni atipouh.
