< Luke 7 >

1 When he had ended all his discourse in the hearing of the people, he entered Capernaum.
Thlangkhqi ang zaak na ve ak awi ve Jesu ing ak kqawn boeih coengawh. Kaperanuam khaw na cet hy.
2 And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear to him, was sick, and about to die.
Qalkap zakhat ak ukkung thlang pynoet a tyihzawih, a boeipa ing a lungnaak soeih ce, tlo nawh thi tawm hy.
3 And having heard about Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, and besought him to come and save his servant.
Cawhkaw qalkap zakhat ak ukkung ing Jesu akawng ce ang zaak awh Juda a hqamca thlang vang ce tyi nawh, a tyihzawih ce qoei sak ham doet sak hy.
4 And they came to Jesus, and besought him earnestly, saying, He is worthy that thou shouldst do this for him;
Jesu a ven a mi pha awh qeennaak thoeh uhy, “Ve ak thlang vetaw a ni ngoenaak ce na sai peek aham tyng hy,
5 for he loveth our nation, and himself built the synagogue for us.
anih ing ka mi ram a lungnaak awh sinakawk pynoet ni sak pek khqi hy,” tina uhy.
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;
Cedawngawh Jesu a mi huawh ce nawh, im ami pha tawm ca awh qalkap zakhat ak ukkung ing a pyikhqi ce tyi nawh, “Bawipa, kyi kaa, ka ipkhui awh na law aham am kawih nyng.
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.
Ceamyihna awmsaw na venna law ham awm am tyng nyng ti nyng, awi doeng mah kqawn nawh, ka tyihzawih qoei bit kaw.
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.
Kai awm ukknaak ak kai awh ak awm thlang pynoet na awm hlai nyng, kak kaiawh qalkap khawzah awm lawt hy. Thlang pynoet a venawh, 'Cet' ka tinaak awhtaw cet nawh; ak chang pynoet a venawh, 'Law', ka tinaak awhtaw law nawh, 'Ve sai,' ka tinaak awhtaw sai hy,” tina hy.
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.
Jesu ing anih ak awi ce ang zaak awh ak kawpoek na kyi nawh, a hu awh ak bat thlangkhqi benna hawi nawh, “Ka nik kqawn peek khqi, Israelkhqi chung lakawh vemyihna cangnaak ak bau am hu nyng,” tinak khqi hy.
10 And they who were sent, returning to the house, found the servant well.
Thlang a tyihkhqi ce im na hlat uhy, cawh tyihzoeih thlang ce sadip caana ana awm tlaih hy.
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.
Cekcoengawh Jesu taw Nain a mi ti khaw na cet hy, a hubatkhqi mi thlang khawzah a hu awh bat uhy.
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.
Khaw awhkaw vawng chawmkeng a mi pha tawm awh, nuhai ca ing a taak chyn a capa ce thih pe nawh a qawk ce kawt law uhy. Thlang khawzah nuhai a venawh awm uhy.
13 And when the Lord saw her, he was moved with compassion for her, and said to her, Weep not.
Bawipa ing cawhkaw nuhai ce a huh awh, qeen soeih nawh a venawh, “Koeh kqang,” tina hy.
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.
Cekcoengawh cet nawh qeep ce bi nawh, cawh qeep ak kawtkhqi awm dyi uhy. “Cadawng, ka nik kqawn peek, tho lah,” tina hy.
15 And he that was dead sat up and began to speak; and he gave him to his mother.
Cawh ak thi ce tho nawh awi pau hy. Jesu ing a nu venawh pe tlaih hy.
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.
Cawhkaw amik awmkhqi boeih ing kqih unawh Khawsa ce kyihcah unawh, “Ni venna tawngha ak boeimang soeih dang law hawh pai hy,” ti unawh, “Khawsa ing ak thlangkhqi hqip lawk khqi hy,” ti bai uhy.
17 And this report about him went forth in all Judaea, and in all the neighboring country.
Jesu akawng taw Judah qam ingkaw a kengsam qam boeih awh thang khawnghak hy.
18 And the disciples of John told him all these things.
Johan a hubatkhqi ing vawhkaw ik-oeihkhqi boeih ve a venawh kqawn pe uhy. A hubat thlang pakhih ce khy nawh,
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?
Bawipa ce doet aham tyi hy, “Nang ve ak law hly kawi ce hawh nu, am awhtaw thlak chang kamik qeh hly hyn nu? tinawh doet sak hy.
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?
Cawhkaw thlangkhqi ce Jesu a venna cet unawh, “Baptisma ak pekung Johan ing nang a venawh awi doet aham kaimih ve ni tyi khqi hy, 'Nang ve ak law hly kawi ce hawh nu, am awhtaw thlak chang kamik qeh hly hyn nu? tinawh ni doet sak khqi hy,” tina uhy.
21 In that hour he cured many of diseases, and plagues, and evil spirits, and to many who were blind he gave sight.
Cawh Jesu ing tlawhnat soepkep ak takhqi, thlak tlokhqi ce qoei sak nawh, qaaichekhqi ce hqek hy, mikhypkhqi ce mik dang sak hy.
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;
Cedawngawh ami venawh, “Johan a venna hlat tlaih unawh nami huhkhqi ingkaw naming zaakkhqi ce kqawn pe uh: Mikhyp ing khaw hu thai hawh nawh, khawkkhem ing cet thai hawh hy, mynqaikhqi ing ciimcaih hawh unawh, hakpangkhqi ing a mingha khui hawh hy, thlak thikhqi ing tho unawh, hahqahkhqi ing awithang leek za hawh uhy.
23 and blessed is he, whoever shall find no occasion of stumbling in me.
U awm kai ak camawh amak tlu taw a zoseen hy,” tinak khqi hy.
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?
Johan ak thlang tyihkhqi a ming hlat coengawh, thlang kqeng a venawh Jesu ing Johan akawng kqawn pek khqi hy: “Ikaw huh aham nami ngaih awh nu kqawng na nami ceh? Paipoeng zilh ing a zawn toek nami ngaih awh nu?
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 awhtaw, ikaw huh nami ngaih awh nami ceh? Angki hinaak ak nep nep ing ak thoeihcam qukhqi toek nami ngaih awh nu? Amni, angki hinaak a phu ak tlo tlo ing thoeihcam qu nawh awk-ai ak tui tui ak aikhqi taw boeikhqi im awh ni a mi awm hy.
26 But what have ye gone out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say to you, and more than a prophet.
Cawhtaw ikaw huh ngaih awh nami ceh ce? Tawngha huh nami ngaih awh nu, Oeih, ka nik kqawn peek khqi, tawngha anglakawh tawngha khqoet ceni.
27 This is he of whom it is written, “Lo! I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.”
Anih akawng vemyihna a na qee hawh uhy: “'Na haiawh ka dyihthing tyi law kawng nyngsaw, anih ing na haai awhkaw lam ce qoek abah law kaw,' a ti ce.
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 nik kqawn peek khqi, nu ing a taak ak khui awhtaw Johan anglakawh ak bau khqoet awm hlan hy; cehlai Khawsa ram khuiawh ak zawi soeih na ak awm ce anih anglakawh bau khqoet hy,” tinak khqi hy.
29 And all the people when they heard him, and the publicans, acknowledged God as righteous by being baptized with the baptism of John.
(Thlang boeih ingkaw mangmu ak cawikungkhqi ing za Jesu ak awi ce a ming zaak awh, a mingmih ce Johan ing baptisma a na peek khqi hawh a dawngawh, Khawsa lam taw dyng hy tice dyih pyi uhy.
30 But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the purpose of God toward themselves, not being baptized by him.
Cehlai Farasikhqi ingkaw anaa awi ak simkhqi ingtaw a mimah ak poek awh Khawsa ang cainaak ce oelh uhy, Johan a baptisma awm am hu uhy.)
31 To what then shall I compare the men of this generation, and what are they like?
Jesu ing, “Cawhtaw ve a chan awhkaw thlangkhqi ve ikaw ing nu ka nyhtah lah voei? Ikaw ing nu vekkhqi ve a ming lawh qu?
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.
Vekkhqi ve ik-oeih a mi zawihnaak hun awh amik ngawi naasenkhqi ing a mi pyikhqi a mik khy ing myih uhy: 'Khqung tum law hlai unyng, am lam uhyk ti; kqahlung ka mi sauh law awh awm, am kqang phoeih bai uhyk ti,” a ti ing myih hy.
33 For John the Baptist hath come not eating bread, nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a demon.
Johan law nawh buh awm am ai hy, misur tui awm am aw hy, 'Qaai tahy,' tina uhyk ti.
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!
Thlang Capa law nawh aw ai hy, 'Ai maw, aawk maw, misur tui ak sawk, mangmu ak cawikungkhqi ingkaw thlak thawlhkhqi pyi,' tina uhyk ti.
35 But wisdom is acknowledged by all her children.
Cehlai cyihnaak taw a cakhqi boeih ak caming dang sak na awm hy,” tinak khqi hy.
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.
Farasi thlang pynoet ing Jesu ce buh veel pyi aham khy hy, cedawngawh cawhkaw Farasi a im na cet nawh my buh veel pyi hy.
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,
Ce a khawk khui awhkaw ak awm thlak thawlh nu pynoet ing Farasi a im awh Jesu ing buh pan hy tice ang zaak awh, alabaster bawktui pynoet ce haw law nawh law hy.
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.
Jesu a hu benna a khawkung awh ce dyi nawh kqang hy, a mikphli tui ing a khaw sui nawh, a lusam ing huih hy, a khaw ce mawk nawh, bawktui ing syp bai hy.
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.
Buh ai na ak khykung Farasi thlang ing a huh awh, “Ve ak thlang ve tawngha mantaw, anih ak bikung ce a u nu, tice sim hlai voei, anih ve thlak thawlh hlai ni,” tinawh ak kawlung khuiawh poek hy.
40 And Jesus answering said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he saith, Teacher, say on.
Jesu ing a venawh, “Simon, awi kqawn law lah vang nyng,” tina hy. Anih ing, “Kqawn law lah thaw, cawngpyikung,” tina hy.
41 A certain money-lender had two debtors; one owed five hundred denaries, and the other fifty.
Cawh Jesu ing, “Thlang pakkhih ing tangka ak pu sakkung a venawh tangka pu haih hy nih. Pynoet ing tangka denari zanga pu nawh, pynoet ingtaw tangka denari hakip pu hy.
42 When they had nothing to pay, he freely remitted the debt of both. Which of them, now, will love him the most?
A ni pakkhih na tangka pu ce am thung thai hy nih, cedawngawh tangka ak pu sakkung ing zoe sak kqawi haih hy. Cawhtaw han ak thlang ing nu anih ce a lungnaak khqoet kaw?” tina hy.
43 Simon answering said, He, I suppose, to whom he remitted the most. And he said to him, Thou hast judged rightly.
Simon ing, “Tangka khawzah bet ak pu peek thlang ing lungna khqoet kaw, tinawh poek nyng,” tina hy. Jesu ing, “Ak thym ni nak kqawn phek hy,” tina hy.
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.
Cekcoengawh nu benna ce mang nawh Simon a venawh, “Vawhkaw thlang ve nak hu nu? Na im na ka law awh, ka khaw silh tui amni pe hyk ti. Cehlai anih ingtaw a mikphli tui ing ka khaw sui nawh a lusam ing huih hy.
45 No kiss didst thou give me; but she, from the time I came in, did not cease to kiss my feet.
Nang ingtaw amni mawk man hyk ti, cehlai ve nu ingtaw ka lut law cyk awhkawng ka khaw ve ang dym kaana mawk hy.
46 My head with oil thou didst not anoint; but she anointed my feet with costly ointment.
Nang ingtaw ka lu awh situi am ni syyp man hyk ti, cehlai anih ingtaw ka khaw awh bawktui ing ni syyp hy.
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.
Cedawngawh ka nik kqawn peek, a thawlhnaak khawzah ce qeenna awm hawh hy; anih ingawm a lungnaak bau soeih hy; cehlai qeennaak ak zawi ing, a lungnaak zawi khawi hy,” tina hy.
48 And he said to her, Thy sins have been forgiven.
Cekcoengawh Jesu ing nu a venawh, “Na thawlhnaak qeenna awm hawh hy,” tina hy.
49 And those who were at table with him began to say within themselves, Who is this that even forgiveth sins?
Cawh buh ak vel pyikhqi ing, “Thlang a thawlh qeenkhaw ak ngai ve u nu?” ti uhy.
50 But he said to the woman, Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.
Jesu ing nu a venawh, “Nak cangnaak ing ni thaawng hawh hy, ngaihqep cana cet hlah,” tina hy.
