Luke 7
1 When he had ended all his discourse in the hearing of the people, he entered Capernaum.
Jesuh naw ngthu pyen law päng lü Kapenawma citki.
2 And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick, and about to die.
Acunüng Romah ngvai naw a jawngnaka m'ya mat thi law hlü khaia a mhnat awmki.
3 And having heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, and besought him to come and save his servant.
Jesuha mawng a ngjak üng, a m'ya mdaw law be khaia, Jesuh va nghui na u lü, khü khai hea, Judah ngvai he a jah tüih.
4 And they came to Jesus, and besought him earnestly, saying, He is worthy that thou shouldst do this for him;
Jesuha veia law u lü aktäa nghui naki he naw, “Hina khyang ta na kpüi vaia ngkawi ve,
5 for he loveth our nation, and himself built the synagogue for us.
ani cun mi khyang he jah jawng na lü, Sinakok pi jah sak peki ni,” ami ti.
6 And Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying, Lord, trouble not thyself; for I am not worthy that thou shouldst come under my roof;
Acuna Jesuh ami veia citki. Acunüng a pha law tawm tawm la Romah ngvai naw a püi he jah tüi lü, “Bawipa aw, ka im na luhnak ngkawi vaia am kya ve, ä kha heia,
7 on which account I did not think myself worthy to come to thee; but command with a word, and let my servant be healed.
acunakyase, na veia ka law vaia pi ka ngkawikia am ngai kyu veng, ngthu däng pyen lü, ka m'ya daw be khai ni.
8 For even I am a man set under authority, having soldiers under me; and I say to this one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
“Isetiakyaküng, kei haw anaa takia keha ka awmki. Ka keha yekap he awmki he, mat am ‘cita’ ka ti üng citki, akce mat am ‘lawa’ ka ti üng lawki, ka m'ya am hin pawha ka ti üng pawhki,” a ti.
9 And Jesus hearing this, wondered at him; and turning round said to the multitude that followed him, I say to you, Not even in Israel have I found such faith.
Jesuh naw acun a ngjak üng, cäieiki naw, mang hü lü, amät läkia khyang he üng, “Isarel he üng pi ahikba sena jumeiki am hmu khawi nawng,” a ti.
10 And they who were sent, returning to the house, found the servant well.
A khyang tüihe ima ami ceh be üng, m'ya cun daw be se ami hmuh.
11 And it came to pass the day after, that he was going to a city called Nain; and many of his disciples were with him, and a great multitude.
Acun käna Jesuh Nai ami tia mlüha cit se, axüisaw he la khyang khawjah a veia cit hngaki he.
12 And as he came near the gate of the city, lo! there was carried out dead an only son of his mother, and she was a widow; and a great multitude from the city was with her.
Mlüh mkawt pei a pha law üng, hmeinu naw mat däng a canak, khyang kthi ami yawknak kawt law u se, mlüh üngka he khawjah law hngaki he.
13 And when the Lord saw her, he was moved with compassion for her, and said to her, Weep not.
Acunüng, Bawipa naw acuna hmeinu a hmuh üng, m'yenei leng leng lü, “Ä kyapa” a ti.
14 And he came up, and touched the bier; and they who bore it stood still; and he said, Young man, I say to thee, Rise.
Jesuh naw law lü, yawkkawng hnet se, kawtki he ngdüiki he. Acunüng Jesuh naw, “Cawngpyang, tho law, ti veng,” ti se,
15 And he that was dead sat up and began to speak; and he gave him to his mother.
akthi cun tho law lü ngthuhei law se, Jesuh naw a nu üng a pet.
16 And fear seized on all, and they gave glory to God, saying, A great prophet hath risen up among us; and, God hath visited his people.
Acunüng, ami van kyü lawki he naw, Pamhnam mküimto u lü, “Mi ksunga sahma akyäp awm law ve; Pamhnam a khyang he jah küikyan khaia law ve,” ami ti.
17 And this report about him went forth in all Judaea, and in all the neighboring country.
Acuna Jesuha mawng cun khaw avan la a pipeia hne avan üng ngthang hüki.
18 And the disciples of John told him all these things.
Johana axüisaw he naw acuna mawng avan cun Johan üng ami mtheh.
19 And calling to him two of his disciples, John sent them to the Lord, saying, Art thou he that is to come, or are we to look for another?
Acunüng, Johan naw axüisaw nghngih jah khüki naw, Bawipa veia jah tüi lü, “Johan naw law khai a tia khyanga na kyaki aw? Akce kami na äpei khai aw?” tia a jah va kthähsak.
20 And the men came to him and said, John the Baptist hath sent us to thee, saying, Art thou he that is to come, or are we to look for another?
Acunüng, Jesuh veia law u lü, “Law khai mata na kyaki aw? Akce kami na äpei khai aw? tia ni kthäh vaia baptican Johan naw na veia a jah tüih law ni,” ami ti.
21 In that hour he cured many of diseases, and plagues, and evil spirits, and to many who were blind he gave sight.
Acunapät üng Jesuh naw, a jah huieie, natnak khihlau akce kcea jah awmnak he, ngmüimkhya ksea awmnak he khawjah jah mdaw be lü, amikmü khawjah a jah mdeisak be.
22 And he answered and said to them, Go and tell John what ye have seen and heard; that the blind receive sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor good tidings are brought;
Jesuh naw, “Citbe u lü, nami hmuh la nami sim he Johan üng jah va mtheh ua; amikmüe mdei law be ve u, akhawkxo he ami khaw am cit ve u, mnehkse mnehkie ngcim be ve u, ami nghnga kpangki he pi ami nghnga ngjang be ve u, akthi he xüng law be ve u, khuikha m’yetsekiea veia thangkdaw sanga kya ve.
23 and blessed is he, whoever shall find no occasion of stumbling in me.
“Upi, keia phäha, a mlung am hlawtlatki ta a jo sen ve,” a ti.
24 And when the messengers of John had departed, he began to say to the multitudes concerning John, What have ye gone out into the wilderness to see? the reeds shaken by the wind?
Johana xüisaw he ami ktawih be käna, Jesuh naw Johana mawng khyang he üng jah mtheh lü, “Johana veia, khawkhyawng khawa nami ceh üng, i teng khaia ni nami ceh? Khawkhia aksün khuhlip teng khaia aw nami ceh?
25 But what have ye gone out to see? a man clothed in soft raiment? Lo! they who wear gorgeous apparel, and live luxuriously, are in kings' palaces.
“Am acunüng i teng khaia ni nami ceh? Suisak akdaw suisaki teng khaia aw nami ceh? Suisak akdaw suisaki he cun sangpuxang hea ima ni ami awm khawi.
26 But what have ye gone out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say to you, and more than a prophet.
“Am acunüng sahma teng khaia aw nami ceh? Ä, ka ning jah mtheki, sahmaa kthaka pi kyäp bawki hia awm ve,
27 This is he of whom it is written, “Lo! I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.”
cangcim naw ‘Ngaia ka khyang na ma ka tüih, ani naw na maa lam pyang khai’ tia a mawng ami yuk cen ahina Johan ni.
28 I say to you, Among those born of women there is no greater prophet than John; but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
“Ka ning jah mthehki, nghnumi hea ca avan üng Johana kyäp bawki sahma am awm naw; cunsepi, Pamhnama khawa akjaw säih pi Johana kthaka kyäp bawki ni,” a ti.
29 And all the people when they heard him, and the publicans, acknowledged God as righteous by being baptized with the baptism of John.
Acunüng, khyang avan naw ami ngjak; aktunga ngcawnklawk he cun Pamhnama ngsungpyunak vaia Johana baptican khanki he.
30 But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the purpose of God toward themselves, not being baptized by him.
Cunsepi, Pharise he la, thum mksingki he naw, ami hama Pamhnama pyan ma u lü, Johana baptican ä khanki he.
31 To what then shall I compare the men of this generation, and what are they like?
Jesuh naw pyen be tü lü, “Tuhkbäiha ngsawn he hin i am ni ka jah msuimcäp kawm? Ia mäih ni ami law?
32 They are like children sitting in the market-place, and calling one to another, saying, We piped to you, and ye did not dance; we sung a dirge, and ye did not weep.
“Ahin he cun Anghmawe jawihtuknaka ngawki he, ngkhü kyu u lü, ‘Cambumak pülün ning jah tum pe ung se am nami nglamki, yawk la sa ung se pi am nami kyapki’ ti am tängki he.
33 For John the Baptist hath come not eating bread, nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a demon.
“Baptican Johan a law üng ei nghmü lü capyitui am aw se, ‘khawyaia awmnak’ nami tiki.
34 The Son of man hath come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold, a glutton and a wine-bibber, a friend of publicans and sinners!
“Khyanga Capa law lü ei aw se, ‘Teng u, eiaw aih ve, ngcawnklawk he la khyang kse hea püi cen’ nami tiki.
35 But wisdom is acknowledged by all her children.
“Mhnama ksingkhyapnak cun dokhameiki he naw a cangnak mdangki he ni,” a ti.
36 And one of the Pharisees asked him to eat with him; and he went into the Pharisee's house, and reclined at the table.
Pharise mat naw a veia buh ei khaia khü se, Jesuh Pharisea ima lut lü buh ei khaia ngawki.
37 And lo! a woman who was in the city, a sinner, learning that he was at table in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster-bottle of ointment,
Acuna mlüh üng nghnumi kse mat awmki naw Pharisea ima Jesuh buh ei lü awmki ti, a ksing üng, alabasta um üng situi ngui lawpüiki naw,
38 and standing behind at his feet, weeping, began to wet his feet with tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.
Jesuha hnu, a khaw kunga kyap lü ngdüiki. A miktui naw a khawpha msüi se, a lusam am xüt lü, a khawpha mhnamki naw, situi ng'ui am a hluk.
39 And the Pharisee who had invited him, when he saw this, said within himself, This man, if he were a prophet, would know who, and what sort of woman, this is that toucheth him; for she is a sinner.
Pharise naw hmu lü, a mlung k'uma, “Hin hin sahma kcanga a kya vai sü, hnetkia nghnuminu hin u ni, ia mäih ni ti ksing khai sü. Khyangka kyalang se,” a ti.
40 And Jesus answering said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he saith, Teacher, say on.
Jesuh naw, “Sihmon, na veia ngthu mat ka pyen vai awm ve,” ti lü a msang. Acunüng Sihmon naw, “Saja aw pyena,” a ti.
41 A certain money-lender had two debtors; one owed five hundred denaries, and the other fifty.
Jesuh naw, “Ngui jah kpuki, mat naw, khyang nghngih üng ngui a jah kpu; mat üng phya mhma a kpu, mat am mhmakip a kpu.
42 When they had nothing to pay, he freely remitted the debt of both. Which of them, now, will love him the most?
“Ani thungnak be vai am ta ni se, ani nghngih a jah mhlät. Acunüng, acun xawi üng u naw jawng na bawk khai ni?” a ti.
43 Simon answering said, He, I suppose, to whom he remitted the most. And he said to him, Thou hast judged rightly.
Sihmon naw, “A mhlät däm naw jawng na bawk khaia ngai veng,” ti lü, msang se, Jesuh naw, “Cang veki,” a ti.
44 And turning to the woman, he said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered thy house, no water didst thou give me for my feet; but she wet my feet with tears, and wiped them with her hair.
Acunüng, nghnumi nghlat si lü, Sihmona veia, “Hina nghnuminu na hmuki aw? Na ima lut law ni se, ka khaw ka mthinak vaia tui am na na peki, hina nghnuminu naw a miktui am ka khaw mthi lü, a lusam am xütki.
45 No kiss didst thou give me; but she, from the time I came in, did not cease to kiss my feet.
“Nang naw am na na mhnamki, hina nghnumi naw ka luh law üng tün lü ka khawpha am pyai lü mhnamki.
46 My head with oil thou didst not anoint; but she anointed my feet with costly ointment.
“Nang naw ka lü situi am na hluki, hina nghnumi naw ka khawpha situi am hluki.
47 Wherefore, I say to thee, her many sins have been forgiven; for she loved much; but he to whom little is forgiven loveth little.
“Acunakyase, ning mtheh veng, aktäa jawng nakia kyase, a katnak he khawjah cun mhlät pänga kya ve. A katnak ajaw däng mhlät naw ajawha jawng naki,” a ti.
48 And he said to her, Thy sins have been forgiven.
Acunüng, Jesuh naw nghnumi üng, “Na katnak he jah mhlät pänga kya ve,” a ti.
49 And those who were at table with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that even forgiveth sins?
Buh a eipüi he naw, “Katnak pi jah mhlätki hin u ni,” ami ti.
50 But he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
Acunüng, Jesuh naw nghnumi üng, “Na jumnak naw ning küikyan ve, dim’yenak am cita,” a ti.
