Matthew 14
1 At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the fame of Jesus,
Acun k'um üng Kalile Upki Herod naw Jesuha mawng cun ngja lü,
2 and said to his servants, “This is John the Immerser, he rose from the dead, and because of this the mighty energies are working in him.”
a khyang he üng, “Ani cun Baptican Johan ni, thihnak üngka naw tho beki, acunakyase ni müncanksee jah pawhnak khawha johit taki,” a ti.
3 For Herod having laid hold on John, bound him, and put him in prison, because of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife,
Herod naw Johan cun man lü, a na Philipa khyu Herodiha phäha thawngim üng ahlana a khyuma kyaki.
4 for John was saying to him, “It is not lawful to you to have her,”
Johan naw Herod üng, “Na naa khyu na khyunak vai ta am nglawiki ni,” a tia phäha kyaki.
5 and willing to kill him, he feared the multitude, because as a prophet they were holding him.
Herod naw Johan hnim hlüki kyaw Judah khyang he a jah kyüh. Isetiakyaküng Johan cun Judah khyang he naw sahmaa ami ngaiha kyaki.
6 But the birthday of Herod being kept, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst, and pleased Herod,
Heroda hminaka mhnüp üng, Herodiha canu cun Herod ja a khinea maa nglamki. Herod amsüma jeki.
7 after which with an oath he professed to give her whatever she might ask.
“Ka ng’yünki, na hlüei na tä naküt ka ning pe khai” ti lü Herod naw Herodiha canu üng bekhüt a pet.
8 And she, having been instigated by her mother, says, “Give me here on a plate the head of John the Immerser”;
A nu naw a cüka kba nglaca cun naw, “Mlikbe üng Baptican Johana lu na pea!” a ti.
9 and the king was grieved, but because of the oaths and of those dining with him, he commanded [it] to be given;
Sangpuxang cun pukseki, cunüngpi a khinea maa a khyütama pänga kyase nglacaa hlüei cun ami pawh vaia a jah mtheh.
10 and having sent, he beheaded John in the prison,
Acunüng thawngima khyang tüih lü Johana lu a khyüngsak.
11 and his head was brought on a plate, and was given to the girl, and she brought [it] near to her mother.
Johana lu cun mlikbe üng lawpüi lü nglaca üng pe u se, nglaca naw a nua veia a cehpüi.
12 And his disciples having come, took up the body, and buried it, and having come, they told Jesus,
Johana hnükläke law u lü a yawk cehpüi lü, k’utkie naw Jesuh üng ami va mtheh.
13 and Jesus having heard, withdrew from there in a boat to a desolate place by Himself, and the multitudes having heard followed Him on land from the cities.
Jesuh naw Johana mawng a ngjak üng, mlawng am ngcum lü ahinak mawkpyawnga citki. Acun ngjaki khyang he naw ami mlüh jah hawih hüt lü ami khaw am läki he.
14 And Jesus having come forth, saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion on them, and healed their sick;
Mlawng üngka naw a kyum law üng Jesuh naw khyangpänu jah hmuh lü jah mpyeneiki, am phetkie a jah mdaw be.
15 and evening having come, His disciples came to Him, saying, “The place is desolate, and the hour has now past, let away the multitudes that, having gone into the villages, they may buy food for themselves.”
Khaw a mü law hlü üng axüisaw he a veia law u lü, “Ahin hin maw ni, khaw pi mthan hnühki ni. Khyang he hin jah tüiha, ami ei vai ngnamea ami ei phäh phäh vai khyäiei hü u se” ami ti.
16 And Jesus said to them, “They have no need to go away—you give them to eat.”
Jesuh naw, “Athuknaka ami ceh vai am hlü, nangmi naw ami ei vai aipi jah pe ua,” a ti.
17 And they say to Him, “We have nothing here except five loaves and two fishes.”
Amimi naw, “Muk mhma ja nga nghngihca däk ni kami tak ve u,” ti u se,
18 And He said, “Bring them to Me here.”
Acunüng Jesuh naw, “Ka veia lawpüi ua,” a ti.
19 And having commanded the multitudes to recline on the grass, and having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, having looked up to the sky, He blessed, and having broken, He gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples [gave] to the multitudes,
Khyang he cun msaia khana ngaw khai hea a jah mtheh. Acunkäna muk mhma ja nga nghngih cun jah lo lü khana mang lü Pamhnam üng jenak mthehki. Muke cun jah bo lü axüisaw he üng a jah pet. A axüisaw he naw khyang he üng ami jah pet.
20 and they all ate, and were filled, and they took up what was over of the broken pieces twelve hand-baskets full;
Avan naw ei lü phü u se, ami ei k’hläi cun axüisaw he naw ami mcun be üng cä xaleinghngiha lawki.
21 and those eating were about five thousand men, apart from women and children.
Eikie naküt cun nghnumi ja hnasen am pakia, kpami däk thawngmhma lawki he.
22 And immediately Jesus constrained His disciples to go into the boat, and to go before Him to the other side, until He might let away the multitudes;
Acunüng Jesuh naw khyang he a jah tüih be käna, axüisaw he cun mlawng üng cayea a jah na cehsak.
23 and having let away the multitudes, He went up to the mountain by Himself to pray, and evening having come, He was there alone,
Acukba khyang he a jah tüih be päng üng, amätca mcunga ktaiyü khaia kaiki. Khaw mü law se, amät däk acuia veki.
24 and the boat was now in the midst of the sea, distressed by the waves, for the wind was contrary.
Acunüng mlawng cun kawng üngka naw a thuknak tuili nglunga ve se tuingnawk naw a ceh hü.
25 And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went away to them, walking on the sea,
Khaw athaih law hlü üng, Jesuh tuia khana a khaw am axüisaw hea veia lawki.
26 and the disciples having seen Him walking on the sea, were troubled, saying, “It is an apparition,” and from the fear they cried out;
Axüisawe naw tuia khana a law ami hmuh üng kyühei law u lü, “Hin hin ngmüimkhya ni,” ti u lü ngpyangkie.
27 and immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, “Take courage! I AM; do not be afraid.”
Jesuh naw, “Käh kyüei ua, Kei ni,” a ti.
28 And Peter answering Him said, “Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the waters”;
Pita naw msang lü, “Bawipa aw, nang na ni üng, tuia khana ka law hnga khaia na mtheha,” a ti.
29 and He said, “Come”; and having gone down from the boat, Peter walked on the waters to come to Jesus,
“Lawa,” Jesuh naw a ti. Acunüng Pita mlawng üngka naw kco law lü Jesuha veia cit khaia tuia khana citki.
30 but seeing the vehement wind, he was afraid, and having begun to sink, he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!”
Acunüngpi khawa khi law a hmuh üng kyühei lü tui üng ju ngcumei lü, “Bawipa aw, na küikyana,” ti lü ngpyang se,
31 And immediately Jesus, having stretched forth the hand, laid hold of him and says to him, “Little faith! For why did you waver?”
Jesuh naw man be lü, “Jumeinak ngcekia khyang aw, ivaia na mlung uplatki ni” a ti.
32 And they having gone into the boat, the wind stilled,
Mlawng üng ani kai be ja khawkhi ngdüm beki.
33 and those in the boat having come, worshiped Him, saying, “You are truly God’s Son.”
Mlawnga k’uma veki axüisaw he naw hjawkhah law u lü, “Nang hin Pamhnama Capa na kya kcangki ni,” ami ti.
34 And having passed over, they came into the land of Gennesaret,
Tuili cayea va pek u lü Kenesaret hnea lawki he.
35 and having recognized Him, the men of that place sent forth to all that surrounding region, and they brought to Him all who were ill,
Acuia ka khyang he naw Jesuh ami ksing üng, acuna pipei üngkae pe naküt üng khyang he jah tüih hü u lü am phetkie naküt ami jah lawpüi u.
36 and were calling on Him that they might only touch the fringe of His garment, and as many as touched were saved.
A suisak mdawngca hman hneh vaia nghuinakie, acunüng, aupi hneki naküt cun phet bekie.
