< Luke 7 >

1 After he had finished speaking in the hearing of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
A ol te pilnam kah a hna ah boeih a baetawt sak phoeiah tah Kapernaum la kun.
2 A certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick and at the point of death.
Te vaengah rhalboei kah sal pakhat te tloh a khueh tih dalh duek. Anih tah a taengah a khoelh la om.
3 When he heard about Jesus, he sent to him Jewish elders, asking him to come and save his servant.
A kawng a yaak coeng dongah Judah patong rhoek te Jesuh taengla a tueih tih a sal hoeih sak ham halo dae saeh tila a cael.
4 When they came to Jesus, they pleaded with him earnestly, saying, "He is worthy for you to do this for him,
Te rhoek loh Jesuh te a paan uh phoeiah ngahngah a cael uh tih, “Anih te doedan tueng la om he,
5 for he loves our nation, and he built our synagogue for us."
mah namtu a lungnah dongah tunim te khaw anih long ni mamih ham a sak,” a ti nah.
6 Jesus went with them. When he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying to him, "Lord, do not trouble yourself, for I am not worthy for you to come under my roof.
Te dongah amih te Jesuh loh a caeh puei tih im pha ham pataeng hla voel pawh. Te vaengah rhalboei loh a puei rhoek te a tueih tih, “Boeipa, na tawnba mai pawt nim? Ka imphu ah na kun ham khaw a koihvaih la ka om moenih.
7 Therefore I did not even think myself worthy to come to you; but say the word, and my servant will be healed.
Namah te kam paan ham khaw ka tueng moenih. Tedae ol kamat mah thui lamtah ka sal he hoeih bitni.
8 For I also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers. I tell this one, 'Go.' and he goes; and to another, 'Come.' and he comes; and to my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it."
Kai khaw saithainah aka khueh hmuikah aka om hlang pakhat van ni. Kamah hmuiah rhalkap rhoek khaw om van. Te dongah pakhat te “Cet” ka ti nah tih cet, pakhat te, “Ha lo lah,” ka ti nah tih ha lo mai. Te dongah tahae kah bangla na saii pah vetih ka sal te a saii mako,” a ti nah.
9 When Jesus heard these things, he was amazed at him, and turned and said to the crowd who followed him, "I tell you, I have not found such great faith, no, not in Israel."
Te te Jesuh loh a yaak vaengah a ngaihmang. Te dongah anih aka vai hlangping te a mael thil tih, “Nangmih taengah ka thui, Israel khuiah pataeng tangnah heyet ka hmuh moenih,” a ti nah.
10 And when those who had been sent returned to the house, they found the servant in good health.
A tueih rhoek te im la a bal uh vaengah rhalboei kah a sal te sading la a hmuh uh.
11 It happened soon afterwards, that he went to a city called Nain; and many of his disciples, along with a large crowd, went with him.
A vuen a pha neh Nain la a khue kho pakhat la cet. Te vaengah anih te a hnukbang rhoek neh hlangping loh muep a puei uh.
12 And when he drew near to the gate of the city, then look, a man who was dead was carried out, the only son of his mother, and she was a widow; and a large crowd from the city was with her.
Khopuei vongka neh a yoei vaengah manu pakhat tah capa khueh duen te a duek pah tih tarha hang khuen. Anih te nuhmai la om dae, khopuei kah hlangping loh anih taengah muep omuh.
13 When the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said to her, "Do not cry."
Anih te a hmuh vaengah Boeipa loh anih soah a thinphat tih, “Rhap boeh,” a ti nah.
14 He came near and touched the coffin, and the bearers stood still. He said, "Young man, I tell you, arise."
A paan tih rhoep te a taek vaengah aka kawt rhoek loh cawt a pai puei uh. Te phoeiah, “Cadong namah, thoo laeh ka ti,” a ti nah.
15 He who was dead sat up, and began to speak. And he gave him to his mother.
Te dongah aka duek te ngol tih pahoi cal. Te phoeiah anih te a manu taengla a paek.
16 Fear took hold of all, and they glorified God, saying, "A great prophet has arisen among us." and, "God has visited his people."
Te vaengah rhihnah loh boeih a thing uh. Te dongah, “Mamih taengah tonghma puei ha thoeng coeng, Pathen loh a pilnam a hip,” a ti uh tih Pathen a thangpom uh.
17 This report went out concerning him in the whole of Judea, and in all the surrounding region.
Te dongah Jesuh kah ol loh Judah pum neh te rhoek pingpang boeih a pha.
18 The disciples of John told him about all these things.
Te rhoek boeih te a hnukbang rhoek loh Johan taengla a puen pauh. Te dongah Johan loh a hnukbang rhoek khuikah panit te a khue.
19 John, calling to himself two of his disciples, sent them to the Lord, saying, "Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?"
Boeipa taengla a tueih tih, “Aka pawk la na om coeng atah a tloe ka lamso pueng aya?” a ti nah.
20 When the men had come to him, they said, "John the Baptist has sent us to you, saying, 'Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?'"
Tekah hlang rhoi loh Jesuh te a paan rhoi tih, “Tuinuem Johan loh nang taengla kaimih rhoi n'tueih tih, 'Aka pawk la na om atah a tloe ka lamso aya? ' a ti,” a ti nah.
21 In that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits; and to many who were blind he gave sight.
Te vaeng tue ah tlohtat khaw, nganboh khaw, mueihla thae muep a hoeih sak. Mikdael rhoek khaw muep a hmuh sak.
22 Jesus answered them, "Go and tell John the things which you have seen and heard: that the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.
Te phoeiah amih te a doo tih, “Cet uh lamtah na hmuh neh na yaak te Johan taengla puen pah. Mikdael loh a hmuh coeng, aka khawn loh pongpa coeng, hmaibae khaw cing tih hnapang loh a yaak, aka duek rhoek khaw thoo uh coeng, khodaeng loh olthangthen a yaak coeng.
23 Blessed is he who is not offended by me."
Tedae kai kongah a khah pawt te tah yoethen la om,” a ti nah.
24 When John's messengers had departed, he began to tell the crowds about John, "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
Johan kah puencawn rhoi te a caeh phoeiah Johan kawng neh hlangping te, “Khosoek la na caeh uh vaengah balae na hmuh uh? Khohli kah a hinghuen capu a?
25 But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft clothing? Look, those who are gorgeously dressed, and live delicately, are in kings' courts.
Tedae himbai hnal neh aka phuekhlak uh hlang te hmuh ham nim na caeh uh? Rhuepom pueinak neh pumdomnah dongah kho aka sa rhoek tah manghai-im ah om uh lah ko ke.
26 But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.
Tedae na caeh uh te balae na hmuh uh? Tonghma a? Ue ta, nangmih taengah tonghma lakah khaw olpuei ka ti rhoe ta.
27 This is he of whom it is written, 'Look, I send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.'
A kawng la a daek pah te anih ni. Ka puencawn te Nang hmai ah kan tueih. Anih long ni nang hmaikah na longpuei te a rhoekbah eh.
28 "I tell you, among those who are born of women there is none greater than John, yet he who is least in the Kingdom of God is greater than he."
Nangmih taengah kan thui, huta kah a cun rhoek khuiah Johan lakah aka tanglue a om moenih. Tedae Pathen ram khuiah a yit koek long pataeng anih lakah tanglue la om,” pahoi a ti nah.
29 When all the people and the tax collectors heard this, they declared God to be just, having been baptized with John's baptism.
Aka ya pilnam boeih neh mangmucoi rhoek long tah Pathen te a tang sak uh tih Johan kah baptisma neh nuem uh.
30 But the Pharisees and the Law scholars rejected the counsel of God, not being baptized by him themselves.
Tedae Pharisee rhoek neh olming rhoek long tah Pathen kah mangtaengnah te amamih ham a aal uh dongah Johan lamloh nuem uh pawh.
31 "To what then will I liken the people of this generation? What are they like?
Te dongah tahae cadil hlang rhoek ba nen nim ka thuidoek lah vetih unim phek a loh uh he?
32 They are like children who sit in the marketplace, and call one to another, saying, 'We played the flute for you, and you did not dance. We mourned, and you did not weep.'
Hnoyoih hmuen ah ngoluh tih khat neh khat aka khue uh thae camoe rhoek phek a lohuh. Amih loh, “Nangmih ham phavi kan tum uh dae na lam uh pawh. Kan hlai uh akhaw na rhap uh pawh,” a ti uh.
33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, 'He has a demon.'
Tuinuem Johan ha pawk tih buh ca pawh, misur khaw a ok pawt hatah, 'Rhaithae a khueh,’ na ti uh.
34 The Son of Man has come eating and drinking, and you say, 'Look, a gluttonous man, and a drunkard; a friend of tax collectors and sinners.'
Hlang capa loh ha pawk tih a caak, a ok hatah, 'hlang khaw carhut neh yumi la he, mangmu aka coi neh hlangtholh rhoek kah a paya ni, ' na ti uh.
35 Wisdom is justified by all her children."
Tedae cueihnah loh a ca rhoek te boeih a tang sak.
36 One of the Pharisees invited him to eat with him. He entered into the Pharisee's house, and sat at the table.
Pharisee pakhat loh Jesuh te amah taengah buh ca la a cael. Te dongah Pharisee im la kun tih a vael van.
37 And look, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that he was reclining in the Pharisee's house, she brought an alabaster jar of ointment.
Pharisee im ah buh a vael te kho ah aka om hlangtholh nu loh lawt a ming.
38 Standing behind at his feet weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and she wiped them with the hair of her head, kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
Te dongah botui te lungbok um dongah a khuen tih a rhah doela Jesuh kho tang ah pai. Te phoeiah Jesuh kho te mikphi neh koe a sul tih a lu sam neh a huih pah. A kho te a mok pah tih botui neh a hluk pah.
39 Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, "This man, if he were a prophet, would have perceived who and what kind of woman this is who touches him, that she is a sinner."
Anih aka khue Pharisee loh a hmuh vaengah a khuiah a toel tih, “Anih he tonghma la om koinih amah aka taek huta te, unim?, mebangnim? ti khaw a ming ni ta, hlangtholh dae ni ke,” a ti.
40 Jesus answered him, "Simon, I have something to tell you." He said, "Teacher, say on."
Te dongah Jesuh loh anih te a doo tih, “Simon, nang taengah thui ham bet ka khueh,” a ti nah. Anih long khaw, “Thui lah saw saya,” a ti nah.
41 "A certain lender had two debtors. The one owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty.
Puhlah pakhat taengah purhong panit om tih, pakhat loh denari yanga, pakhat loh sawmnga a ba.
42 When they could not pay, he forgave them both. Which of them therefore will love him most?"
Tedae a thuung nah a khueh rhoi pawt dongah vik a yoe sak. Te vaengah amih rhoi khuiah ulae puhlah a lungnah ngai eh?,” a ti nah.
43 Simon answered, "He, I suppose, to whom he forgave the most." He said to him, "You have judged correctly."
Simon loh a doo tih, “A yet a yoe sak te ka ti,” a ti nah. Te dongah anih te Jesuh loh, “Buelh na naai het coeng,” a ti nah.
44 Turning to the woman, he said to Simon, "Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, and you gave me no water for my feet, but she has wet my feet with her tears, and wiped them with her hair.
Te phoeiah huta taengla mael tih Simon te, “Huta he na hmuh a? Nang im khuila ka kun dae, kai he kho silh tui nan paek moenih. Anih long tah kai kho he mikphi neh a sul tih a sam neh a huih.
45 You gave me no kiss, but she, since the time I came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet.
Kai taengah moknah khaw nang khueh pawh, anih long tah ka kun parhi te kai kho a mok he toeng voel pawh.
46 You did not anoint my head with oil, but she has anointed my feet with ointment.
Ka lu he situi nan hluk pawh, anih long tah ka kho he botui neh a hluk.
47 Therefore I tell you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little."
Te dongah ni namah taengah kan thui, anih tah tholh a yet loh a hlah coeng dongah muep a lungnah. Tedae a yool a hlah pah long te tah a yool ni a lungnah,” a ti nah.
48 He said to her, "Your sins are forgiven."
Te phoeiah huta te khaw, “Na tholhnah loh n'hlah coeng,” a ti nah.
49 And those who were reclining with him began to say to themselves, "Who is this who even forgives sins?"
Te vaengah aka vael rhoek loh amamih khuiah, “Tholh aka hlah pah te ulae aka om he,” pahoi a ti uh.
50 He said to the woman, "Your faith has saved you. Go in peace."
Huta te khaw, “Na tangnah loh nang ng'khang coeng, ngaimong la cet laeh,” a ti nah.
