Luke 23
1 And the whole company of them rose up, and brought him before Pilate.
Acunüng ngbumki he ami van tho law u lü Jesuh Pilata veia cehpüi u lü,
2 And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this man perverting our nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, and saying that he himself is Christ a king.
“Hin naw, kami khyang he lam jah hma saki, kei Mesijah, sangpuxang ni ti lü Ketah sangpuxanga veia akhawn ä ngcawn vai ti se, kami ngjak,” tia ami mawm.
3 And Pilate asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answered him and said, Thou sayest.
Pilat naw, “Judah hea sangpuxanga na kyaki aw?” ti lü kthäh se, Jesuh naw, “Ä, na pyena kba kya veng,” ti lü a msang.
4 And Pilate said unto the chief priests and the multitudes, I find no fault in this man.
Acunüng Pilat naw ktaiyü ngvai he la khyang hea veia, “Hina khyanga khana mkhuimkhanak vai ia mkatnak am hmu veng,” a ti.
5 But they were the more urgent, saying, He stirreth up the people, teaching throughout all Judaea, and beginning from Galilee even unto this place.
Cunsepi amimi naw “Kalile khaw üng tün lü, ahi düta Judah khaw avan üng jah mthei hü lü khyang avan jah kpyükpyeh hü bäihki,” tia, aksehlena ami pyen.
6 But when Pilate heard it, he asked whether the man were a Galilaean.
Pilat naw ngja lü “Hina khyang hin Kalile khyang aw?” ti lü a jah kthäh.
7 And when he knew that he was of Herod’s jurisdiction, he sent him unto Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem in these days.
Pilat naw Heroda uknaka khaw üngka ti a ksing üng Heroda veia a tüih be. Acunüng, Herod cun Jerusalema awmki.
8 Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceeding glad: for he was of a long time desirous to see him, because he had heard concerning him; and he hoped to see some miracle done by him.
Herod naw Jesuh a hmu üng aktäa jekyaiki; isetiakyaküng a mawngma ngja lü ajandea a hmuh vai a ngaih, müncankse he a jah bilaw iyaw bawi ta a hmuh vai a büa phäha kyaki.
9 And he questioned him in many words; but he answered him nothing.
Ngthu khawjah a kthäh; cunsepi Jesuh naw i am pi am msang be.
10 And the chief priests and the scribes stood, vehemently accusing him.
Acunüng ktaiyü ngvai he la thum ksing he naw ngdüi u lü aktäa a mi mkatei.
11 And Herod with his soldiers set him at nought, and mocked him, and arraying him in gorgeous apparel sent him back to Pilate.
Herod la a yekap he naw Jesuh hmumsit u lü yaiha pawh u lü jinu akyäp cang suisaki he naw Pilata veia ami tüih be.
12 And Herod and Pilate became friends with each other that very day: for before they were at enmity between themselves.
Acuna mhmüp üng Pilat la Herod ngpüi kyu naki xawi. Ajana ani püi ana hneng khawiki xawi.
13 And Pilate called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,
Pilat naw ktaiyü ngvai he, angvai he la khyang he avan jah khü lü,
14 and said unto them, Ye brought unto me this man, as one that perverteth the people: and behold, I, having examined him before you, found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him:
“Khyang he lam jah hma saki ti u lü hin ka veia nami lawpüia kyaki; teng u, nami ma a katnak sui ni se nami mkata kba hina khana i a katnak am hmu veng;
15 no, nor yet Herod: for he sent him back unto us; and behold, nothing worthy of death hath been done by him.
Herod naw pi a katnak cang am hmu naw, a veia ka tüih päng; teng u, thihnak sen vaia i am pawh ve.
16 I will therefore chastise him, and release him.
“Acunakyase, kpai lü khyah be vang,” a ti.
Buhpawh pawi üng khyang mat jah mhlät pet khawia thum awmki.
18 But they cried out all together, saying, Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas:
Ami van atänga ngpyang u lü, “Hin hin hnim lü, Barabah jah mhlät pea,” ami ti.
19 one who for a certain insurrection made in the city, and for murder, was cast into prison.
Barabah cun mlüh k’uma ksuksaknak pawh lü khyang a hnima phäha thawngima khyuma kyaki.
20 And Pilate spake unto them again, desiring to release Jesus;
Pilat naw Jesuh a mhlät vai ngaih lü a jah kthäh be.
21 but they shouted, saying, Crucify, crucify him.
Cunsepi ngpyang u lü, “Kutlamktung üng taiha, Kutlamktung üng taiha,” ami ti.
22 And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil hath this man done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him and release him.
Pilat naw akthumnaka, “Ise ni? Hin naw ia katnak ni a pawh ve? Thihnak sen vai a khana i am hmu veng; acunakyase kpai lü khyah be vang,” a ti.
23 But they were instant with loud voices, asking that he might be crucified. And their voices prevailed.
Cunsepi amimi naw angsang yea kutlamktung üng taih vaia amthuia mso u se, acunüng ami ngpyangnak am Pilat ami näng.
24 And Pilate gave sentence that what they asked for should be done.
Acuna Pilat naw ami msoa kba Jesuh pawh vaia ngthu a jah pet.
25 And he released him that for insurrection and murder had been cast into prison, whom they asked for; but Jesus he delivered up to their will.
Suksaknak pawh lü khyang a hnima phäha thawngim üng kyumki ami kthäh jah khyah pe lü; Jesuh cun ami ngaih ngaiha ami pawh vaia a jah pet.
26 And when they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon of Cyrene, coming from the country, and laid on him the cross, to bear it after Jesus.
Jesuh ami cehpüi k'um üng, Karenih khaw üngka Sihmon naki ngnamca üngka naw lawki ami hmu üng, man u lü Jesuha hnua kutlamktung ami kawh sak.
27 And there followed him a great multitude of the people, and of women who bewailed and lamented him.
A hnua läki hea khyang khawjah üng Jesuh kyahki hea nghnumi avang awmki he.
28 But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.
Acun he Jesuh naw jah nghlat si lü, “Jerusalema canu he aw, kei am na kyah u lü nami mäta phäh la nami ca hea phäha kyap ua.
29 For behold, the days are coming, in which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the breasts that never gave suck.
“Isetiakyaküng, ‘cingkia nghnumi ta a jo sen ve, na am pawinakia pum la na naw am a awk khawia cih ta a jo sen ve’ ami tinaka mhmüp pha law khai.
30 Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us.
“Acunüng khawmcunga veia, ‘Jah sip lawa,’ khawngjung khawkawngea veia, ‘Jah mük lawa’ ti law khai he,
31 For if they do these things in the green tree, what shall be done in the dry?
“Thing xünga veia pi hinkba ami ti üng akhyawnga veia ta ikba kya khai aw?” a ti.
32 And there were also two others, malefactors, led with him to be put to death.
Acunüng a veia khyangka nghngih ami jah hnim vaia ami jah cehpüi hnga.
33 And when they came unto the place which is called The skull, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand and the other on the left.
Acunüng luyuh hmün ami tinak ami pha law üng acuia a kpat lama mat, a k'eng lama mat, khyangka xawi am kutlamktung üng ami taih.
34 And Jesus said, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And parting his garments among them, they cast lots.
Jesuh naw, “Ka Pa aw, jah mhläta; i ami pawh am ksing hei ve u,” a ti. Acunüng, a suisak he cung kphawng u lü ami jah ngpaiei.
35 And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also scoffed at him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if this is the Christ of God, his chosen.
Khyang he naw ngdüi u lü ami tengei. Angvai he naw, “Khyang kce ta jah küikyan khawiki; Pamhnama a xü Mesijah kcang a ni üng amät pi ngküikyanei kyu se,” tia ami ksenak.
36 And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, offering him vinegar,
Yekap he naw pi yaiha ami pawh a veia capyit jukthui lawpüi u lü, peki he naw,
37 and saying, If thou art the King of the Jews, save thyself.
“Judah hea sangpuxanga na kya kcang üng, namät la namät ngküikyanei kyua,” ami ti.
38 And there was also a superscription over him, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
Acunüng a lu khana, “Hin hin, Judah hea sangpuxang ni,” tia ami taih.
39 And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, Art not thou the Christ? save thyself and us.
Acunüng, khyangka mat, a peia ami taih naw pi, kse na lü, “Nang Mesijaha na kya üng, namät ngküikyanei kyu lü, keini pi jah küikyan lawa,” a ti.
40 But the other answered, and rebuking him said, Dost thou not even fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?
Cunsepi, akce mat naw a jüinak am msang lü, “Mhnam ye pi am na kyühki aw? Atänga mkhuimkhanak mi khamei hmaih ye se,
41 And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man hath done nothing amiss.
ningni cun ni khamei kung khaia ni kyaki; ni katnaka phu däng ni hlawheiki ni; hin naw ia katnak am pawh naw,” a ti.
42 And he said, Jesus, remember me when thou comest in thy kingdom.
“Jesuh aw, Sangpuxanga na law üng na sümeia,” a ti.
43 And he said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in Paradise.
Acunüng, Jesuh naw, “Tuhngawi Paradaia ka hlawnga na ve khaia ning khyütam na veng,” a ti.
44 And it was now about the sixth hour, and a darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour,
Acun cun mhmüp naji xaleinghngiha kya lü, mülam naji kthum cäpa nghngi am vai lü avan üng khaw nghmüp lawki.
45 the sun’s light failing: and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.
Acunüng Temple üng jihnu, anglung üng nghngiha tek lawki.
46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said this, he gave up the ghost.
Acunüng, Jesuh naw angsanga, “Ka Pa aw, na kut üng ka ngmüimkhya ning pe veng,” a ti. Acun ti lü thiki.
47 And when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.
Acunüng, yekap ngvai naw acun a hmuh üng, “Hin hin akcanga khyang ngsungpyuna kya ve,” ti lü, Pamhnam mküimtoki.
48 And all the multitudes that came together to this sight, when they beheld the things that were done, returned smiting their breasts.
Khyang avan acun tengei khaia lawki he, acuna awm ihe ami jah hmu üng ami mkyang kbei u lü puksetnak am cit beki he.
49 And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed with him from Galilee, stood afar off, seeing these things.
Acunüng, Kalile khaw üngka naw läk lawkia nghnumi he la Jesuh ksingki he avan, acun teng u lü, athuknaka ngdüiki he.
50 And behold, a man named Joseph, who was a councillor, a good man and a righteous
Acunüng khyang mat Josep naki ngvainu, ngsungpyun lü dawki awmki.
51 (he had not consented to their counsel and deed), [a man] of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews, who was looking for the kingdom of God:
Ani cun Kawngci member kya lü pi ami pawhmsah ami bilawh he am jah ngaisimkia kyaki. Judah khaw, Arimahte khyanga kya lü, Pamhnama khaw a na ngak’uhei khawiki,
52 this man went to Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus.
Pilata veia cit lü Jesuha yawk a kthäh.
53 And he took it down, and wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid him in a tomb that was hewn in stone, where never man had yet lain.
Jesuha yawk khya lü jih am hlawpki naw, u pi am ami k'uhnak khawia, ng’uhnün üng a k'uh.
54 And it was the day of the Preparation, and the sabbath drew on.
Acunüng, acuna mhmüp cun kyawngkai amhmanaka kya lü Sabbath mhmüp pha law hlüki.
55 And the women, which had come with him out of Galilee, followed after, and beheld the tomb, and how his body was laid.
Acunüng, Kalile khawa Jesuh läki nghnumi he cun Josep am atänga cit u lü, ng’uhnün la acunüng ikba Jesuha yawk ami tak cun tengki he.
56 And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments. And on the sabbath they rested according to the commandment.
Acunkäna nghlat be u lü, ng’uinghname la, situie jah pyang u lü thum naw a pyena kba Sabbath mhmüp üng xüieiki he.
