Luke 23
1 And having risen, the whole multitude of them led Him to Pilate,
Cekcoengawh cawh ak awm thlang kqeng ce tho unawh Jesu ce Pilat a venna cehpyi uhy.
2 and began to accuse Him, saying, “We found this One perverting the nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, saying Himself to be Christ, a king.”
Amah ce thawlh puk uhy, “Ve ak thlang ing pilnam hqeh sak nawh, Kaisar a venawh mangmu ama peek aham kqawn nawh amah ingkaw amah Khrih Sangpahrang tinawh kqawn qu hy,” tina uhy.
3 And Pilate questioned Him, saying, “You are the King of the Jews?” And He answering him, said, “You say [it].”
Cedawngawh Pilat ing Jesu ce doet hy, “Nang ve Judakhqi a Sangpahrang aw? tina hy. Jesu ing, “Nak kqawn amyihna awm nyng,” tina hy.
4 And Pilate said to the chief priests and the multitude, “I find no fault in this Man”;
Cekcoengawh Pilat ing khawsoeih boeikhqi ingkaw thlang kqeng a venawh, “Ve ak thlang a thawlhnaak am hu nyng,” tinak khqi hy.
5 and they were the more urgent, saying, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout the whole of Judea—having begun from Galilee—to this place.”
Cehlai cekkhqi ing, “Galilee awhkawng kqan nawh, ve hun dy, Judah khaw boeih awh cawngpyinawh thlang kqeng sak boeih hy,” tina uhy.
6 And Pilate having heard of Galilee, questioned if the Man is a Galilean,
Ce ak awi ce ang zaak awh, Pilat ing anih ce Kalili thlang na a awm ama awm doet hy.
7 and having known that He is from the jurisdiction of Herod, he sent Him back to Herod, he also being in Jerusalem in those days.
Jesu ce Herod uknaak khuiawh kaw thlang ni tice a sim awh, anih ce Herod a venna tyi hy, Herod awm Jerusalem khaw awh awm hy.
8 And Herod rejoiced exceedingly having seen Jesus, for he was wishing to see Him for a long [time], because of hearing many things about Him, and he was hoping to see some sign done by Him,
Herod ing Jesu ce a huh awh, zeel soeih hy, anih ce huh aham lamtoen khing hawh hy. Anih akawng ang zaaknaak awh, kawpoek kyi them a sai ce huh aham ngaih hy.
9 and was questioning Him in many words, and He answered him nothing.
Anih ing awi khawzah doet hy, cehlai Jesu ing khangoet awm am hlat hy.
10 And the chief priests and the scribes stood vehemently accusing Him,
Khawsoeih boeikhqi ingkaw anaa awi qeekungkhqi cawh dyi unawh, thawlh buk uhy.
11 and Herod with his soldiers having set Him at nothing, and having mocked, having cast radiant apparel around Him, sent Him back to Pilate,
Cawh Herod ingkaw a qalkapkhqi ing Jesu ce the a kha na unawh qaih am qin na uhy. Hi ak leek soeih soeih bai sak unawh Pilat a venna tyi tlaih uhy.
12 and both Pilate and Herod became friends with one another on that day, for they were previously at enmity between themselves.
Ce a nyn awhtaw Herod ingkaw Pilat ce qoep hy nih, ce hlan awhtaw cekqawi ce qaal na awm hy nih.
13 And Pilate having called together the chief priests, and the rulers, and the people,
Pilat ing khawsoeih boeikhqi, ukkungkhqi ingkaw pilnam boeih ce khy nawh,
14 said to them, “You brought this Man to me as perverting the people, and behold, I having examined [Him] before you, found no fault in this Man in those things you bring forward against Him;
Ve ak thlang ing 'Pilnam hqeh sak hy,' ti unawh ka venna law pyi uhyk ti. Nami haiawh awi deng hawh hlai nyng. Nangmih ing thawlh namik puk amyihna kawmyih a thawlhnaak awm am hu nyng;
15 no, neither Herod, for he sent Him back to us, and behold, nothing worthy of death is having been done by Him;
Herod ingawm a thawlhnaak am hu hy; cedawngawh venna tyi law tlaih hy, nangmih ing nami huh amyihna, thihnaak dy awh ikawmyih a thawlhnaak awm am sai hy.
16 having corrected, therefore, I will release Him,”
Cedawngawh vyk nyng seitaw hlah mai vang nyng,” tinak khqi hy.
17 [[for it was necessary for him to release to them one at every celebration, ]]
Poei ak khuiawh cekkhqi aham thlang pynoet oet hlah pek aham awm hy.
18 and they cried out—the whole multitude—saying, “Away with this One, and release Barabbas to us,”
Cawh, Ve ak thlang ve him! Barabbas ce hlah law! Tinawh khy uhy.
19 who had been cast into prison, because of a certain sedition made in the city, and murder.
(Barabbas taw khawk bau awh qaal na tho nawh thlang a him dawngawh thawngim awh thla uhy.)
20 Pilate again then—wishing to release Jesus—called to them,
Pilat ing Jesu ce hlah aham a ngaih awh cekkhqi venna awi kqawn tlaih hy.
21 but they were calling out, saying, “Crucify! Crucify Him!”
Cehlai a mingmih ing, “Thinglam awh tai, thinglam awh tai,” tinawh khy uhy.
22 And he said to them a third time, “Why, what evil did He do? I found no cause of death in Him; having corrected Him, then, I will release [Him].”
Am thumnaak awh a mingmih ce: “Ikawtih ikaw thawlhnaak nu ve ak thlang ing a sai? A thih ham kawi ikaw thawlhnaak ak khan awh am hu nyng. Cedawngawh vyk nyng seitaw hlah mai vang nyng,” tinak khqi hy.
23 And they were pressing with loud voices asking Him to be crucified, and their voices, and those of the chief priests, were prevailing,
Cehlai anih ce thinglam awh tai aham khawteh khqoet na khy unawh, amik khy awi ing amingmih ce khuk malh hy.
24 and Pilate gave judgment for their request being done,
Cedawngawh Pilat ing ami thoehnaak ce qawi pekkhqi hy.
25 and he released him who because of sedition and murder has been cast into the prison, whom they were asking for, and he gave up Jesus to their will.
A mingmih ing hlah aham ami thoeh, qaal na tho nawh thlang a him dawngawh thawngim awh a mik thlak Barabbas ce hlah pek khqi nawh, Jesu cetaw a mimah ak kawngaih na sai aham a mingmih a venawh pekkhqi hy.
26 And as they led Him away, having taken hold on Simon, a certain Cyrenian, coming from the field, they put the cross on him to carry [it] behind Jesus.
Anih ce cehpyi uhy, lamlak awh kqawng nakaw ak law Cyqene khaw awhkaw Simon ce tu unawh Jesu a hu awh thinglam tung ce kawh sak uhy.
27 And a great multitude of the people were following Him, and of women, who also were beating themselves and lamenting Him,
Thlang khawzah ing a hu awh hquut uhy, ak kqung ak kqap nukhqi awm bat lawt uhy.
28 and Jesus having turned to them, said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children;
Jesu ing a mingmih a ven benna mang nawh, “Jerusalem canukhqi, kai aham koeh kqang uh, na mimah ingkaw nami cakhqi ham kqang law uh.
29 for behold, days come in which they will say, Blessed the barren, and wombs that did not bear, and breasts that did not give suck;
Nangmih ing, ‘Nu cak kaa khqi, pumqih amak sim khawikhqi ingkaw a suk naaca amak awk sak khawi nukhqi taw a mi zoseen hy! Nami tinaak a khawnghi ce pha law kaw.
30 then they will begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us, and to the hills, Cover us;
Cawh, A mingmih ing tlangkhqi venawh, 'Kaimih ve nik et khqi lah!' ti kawm usaw, cungkhqi venawh, 'Kaimih ve ni hlip khqi lah!” tina kawm uh.’
31 for if they do these things in the green tree, what may happen in the dry?”
Thlang ing thinghqing za vemyih na ami sai awhtaw thingkoh ak khqoet taw ikawmyihna nu ami sai kaw?” tinak khqi hy.
32 And there were also others—two evildoers—with Him, to be put to death;
Ak chang thlak thawlh qawi pakkhih awm thinglam awh tai aham anih ing kutoet na cehpyi uhy.
33 and when they came to the place that is called “[Place] of [the] Skull,” there they crucified Him and the evildoers, one on the right hand and one on the left.
Luquh ami ti hun ce ami pha awh, anih ce thinglam awh tai uhy, thlakthawlh qawi awm – pynoet ce tang benawh, pynoet ce cawngben awh tai uhy.
34 And Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they have not known what they do”; and parting His garments they cast a lot.
Jesu ing, “Kapa, a mingmih ak khan awh qeenkhaw ngai lah, ikaw kami sai ti am sim unawh ni,” tina hy. A hi ce taicung zyk unawh tei uhy.
35 And the people were standing, looking on, and the rulers were also sneering with them, saying, “He saved others, let Him save Himself, if this be the Christ, the Chosen One of God.”
Thlangkhqi ing dyi unawh toek uhy, cawh ukkungkhqi ing qaih na uhy. “Thlakchang taw a hul bai, Khawsa ak tyh Khrih na a awm awhtaw amah ingkaw amah hul qu lah seh,” tina uhy.
36 And the soldiers were also mocking Him, coming near and offering vinegar to Him,
Qalkapkhqi awm law unawh the a kha na uhy. Misur tui ak thui ce pe uhy,
37 and saying, “If You are the King of the Jews, save Yourself.”
“Juda Sangpahrang na awm awhtaw namah ingkaw namah hul qu lah thaw voeih ti,” tina uhy.
38 And there was also an inscription written over Him [[in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew]]: “THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.”
“VETAW JUDA KHRIH SANGPAHRANG NI,” tinawh a sawawh ca tai pe uhy.
39 And one of the evildoers who were hanged was slandering Him, saying, “If You are the Christ, save Yourself and us.”
Cawhkaw ami tai thlak thawlh pynoet ingawm anih ce kaa na hy, “Nang ve Khrih am aw? Namah ingkaw namah hul qu nawhtaw kainih awm ni hul qawi lah thoeih ti,” tina hy.
40 And the other answering, was rebuking him, saying, “Do you not even fear God, that you are in the same judgment?
Cehlai thlak thawlh pynoet ingtaw anih ce hlat nawh, “Khawsa awm am nak kqih nawh nu? Nang ing anih ingqawi ang amyihna awidengnaak na huh ve?
41 And we indeed justly, for we are receiving back [things] worthy of what we did, but this One did nothing out of place”;
Ningnih taw awideng kawina nik awm qoe ni; ni sai phu ni zawk qoe ni; cehlai ve ak thlang ingtaw ikawmyih a thawlhnaak awm am sai hy,” tina hy.
42 and he said to Jesus, “Remember me, Lord, when You may come in Your kingdom”;
Cekcoengawh anih ing, “Jesu, na qam na pha awh kai koeh nim hilh law moe,” tina hy.
43 and Jesus said to him, “Truly I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.”
Jesu ing avenawh, “Awitak ka nik kqawn peek, tuhngawi awh paradise awh kavenawh awm lawt kawp ti,” tina hy.
44 And it was, as it were, the sixth hour, and darkness came over all the land until the ninth hour,
Khawnoek kquk tluk a law awh, khawmdek pum boeih thannaak ing ziing khoep nawh khawnoek ko dy khawthan khoep hy.
45 and the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn in the middle,
khawkdai qeng nawh; cawh Bawkim awhkaw hizan ce pakkhih na teek hy.
46 and having cried with a loud voice, Jesus said, “Father, into Your hands I commit My spirit”; now having said this, He breathed His last.
Cawh Jesu ing khawteh na, “Kapa, na kut awh kang Myihla ni pe nyng,” tina hy. Ceamyihna ak kqawn coeng kqoeng awh ang hqi qu zip hy.
47 And the centurion having seen what was done, glorified God, saying, “Truly this Man was righteous”;
Qalkap zakhat ak ukkung ing cawhkaw a kawnglam ce a huh awh, Khawsa ce kyihcah nawh, “Ve ak thlang ve thlakdyng pai ni,” tihy.
48 and all the multitudes having come together to this sight, beholding the things that came to pass, turned back striking their breasts;
Cawhkaw ik-oeih ak toekna ak cun law thlangkhqi ing ce a kawnglam ce ami huh awh amik kqang pung unawh voei uhy.
49 and all His acquaintances stood far off, and women who followed Him from Galilee, beholding these things.
Cehlai amah ak simkhqi boeih ingkaw, Kalili awhkawng a hu awh a mik bat law nukhqi ing ak hla na dyi unawh, cawhkaw ce dan uhy.
50 And behold, a man, by name Joseph, being a counselor, a man good and righteous,
Awi tlykkung pynoet, Joseph ak mingnaak thlak leek ingkaw thlak dyng pynoet ce awm hy.
51 from Arimathea, a city of the Jews, who also himself was expecting the Kingdom of God, he was not consenting to their counsel and deed,
A mingmih ak awitlyhnaak ingkaw them ami sainaak awh anih taw ang haa am tla qoe hy. Judah qam Arimathea khaw awhkawng ak law na awm nawh Khawsa qam ak lamtoenkung na awm hy.
52 he having gone near to Pilate, asked for the body of Jesus,
Pilat a venna cet nawh, Jesu a qawk ce thoeh hy,
53 and having taken it down, he wrapped it in fine linen, and placed it in a hewn out tomb, where no one was yet laid.
Cekcoengawh qawk ce lo nawh, hi ing a zawl coengawh u awm amak pupnaak hlan phyilung ak khuiawh ce soei hy.
54 And it was [the] Day of Preparation, and Sabbath was approaching,
Ce nyn taw Coekqoek Nyn na awm nawh, Sabbath kqan tawmca hawh uhy.
55 and the women who also have come with Him out of Galilee having followed after, beheld the tomb, and how His body was placed,
Jesu ing Kalili awhkawng amik law haih nukhqi ce Joseph a hu awh bat unawh phyi ingkaw qawk ce ikawmyihna ami soei tice hu uhy.
56 and having turned back, they made ready spices and ointments, and on the Sabbath, indeed, they rested, according to the command.
Cekcoengawh im na cet unawh bawktui ce qoek a bah uhy. Cehlai anaa awi peek amyihna Sabbath nyn awhtaw dym uhy.
