Matthew 26
1 And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these words, he said unto his disciples,
Jesuh naw acuna mtheimthangnake a jah pyen päng üng, axüisaw he üng,
2 Ye know that after two days the passover cometh, and the Son of man is delivered up to be crucified.
“Lätnak Pawi a phanak vai mhnüp nghngih hlü hamki ti nami ksingki, Khyanga Capa kutlamktung üng ami hnim vaia man law khaie,” ti lü a jah mtheh.
3 Then were gathered together the chief priests, and the elders of the people, unto the court of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas;
Acunüng, ktaiyü ngvaie, thumksinge ja, angvaie cun, ktaiyü ngvai säih Kaiphah ami tia abawi ima ngbum lawki he.
4 and they took counsel together that they might take Jesus by subtilty, and kill him.
Jesuh ampyuaa man lü hnim khai hea cengkie.
5 But they said, Not during the feast, lest a tumult arise among the people.
“Acunsepi, lätnak pawi k’um üng ta käh pawh vai, khyang he suksak khaie ni,” ami ti.
6 Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
Jesuh Bethanih mlüh, mnehkse mnehki Sihmona ima veki.
7 there came unto him a woman having an alabaster cruse of exceeding precious ointment, and she poured it upon his head, as he sat at meat.
Jesuh naw buh a ei k’um üng, nghnumi mat naw aphu küi alabasta ksi ng’ui um mat üng lawpüi lü, a lu khana a buih law.
8 But when the disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this waste?
Axüisawe naw hmuh u lü ami mlung so se, “Ivai ahikba a päihcaihsak ni?
9 For this [ointment] might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.
“Hina ksi ng'ui khawhaha jawi lü, khuikha msih mpyaki he üng jah pet vai sü,” ami ti.
10 But Jesus perceiving it said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me.
Jesuh naw ami pyen ksing lü, “Ivai hina nghnumi nami suksakeikie ni? Ani naw ka khana akdaw säih pawhki ni.
11 For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always.
“Sih mpyaki he cun aläa nami hlawnga ve khaie. Acunsepi, kei cun nami hlawnga aläa am ve hlü nawng.
12 For in that she poured this ointment upon my body, she did it to prepare me for burial.
“Hina ksi ng'ui ka khana a buih hin ka ng'utnak vaia pyangki ni.
13 Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, that also which this woman hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.
“Akcanga ka ning jah mthehki, khawmdek van üng hawia pi, thangkdaw ami sang hü u üng, hina nghnumi naw hikba a pawha mawng pi ani sümnak vaia pyensih khaie” a ti.
14 Then one of the twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests,
Acunüng, axüisaw he xaleinghngih üngka mat Judah Iskarot naw ktaiyü ngvaiea veia cit lü,
15 and said, What are ye willing to give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And they weighed unto him thirty pieces of silver.
“Ani nami veia ka phyehei üng, i ja nami na pet kawm?” a ti. Ngui thumkip khe ma u lü ami pet.
16 And from that time he sought opportunity to deliver him [unto them].
Acunkäna Judah Isakarot naw Jesuh a phyeheinak vaia lam suiki.
17 Now on the first [day] of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Where wilt thou that we make ready for thee to eat the passover?
Nghngen am ngcawkia buh pawhnaka mhnüp kcük üng, axüisaw he Jesuh veia law u lü, “Hawia ni, Lätnak pawi buh na ei vaia kami pyen vai na ngjak hlü?” ami ti.
18 And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I keep the passover at thy house with my disciples.
Jesuh naw, “Ngnam k'uma khyang mata veia cit u lü, ‘Saja naw Ka kcün pha law ve; ka hnükläke ja Kei naw na ima Lätnak pawi buh ei khai, ti ve’ va ti ua” a ti.
19 And the disciples did as Jesus appointed them; and they made ready the passover.
Jesuh naw a jah mtheha mäiha axüisaw he naw Lätnak pawi buh pyang vaikie.
20 Now when even was come, he was sitting at meat with the twelve disciples;
Khaw amü law üng, axüisaw xaleinghngihe ja Jesuh ei khaia ngaw yümkie.
21 and as they were eating, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.
Ami ei k’um üng Jesuh naw, “Ka ning jah mthehki, nangmi üngka mat naw na phyehei khai,” a ti.
22 And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began to say unto him every one, Is it I, Lord?
Axüisawe amsüma pukse u lü, “Bawipa aw, acun mä kei vai aw?” ti lü mat mat cima ami kthäh u.
23 And he answered and said, He that dipped his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me.
Jesuh naw, “Kbe mat üng atänga na kpuiheipüiki naw na phyehei khai.
24 The Son of man goeth, even as it is written of him: but woe unto that man through whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had not been born.
“Khyanga Capa cun Cangcim üng a ng'yuka mäiha thi khai. Acunsepi, Khyanga Capa phyehei khaia phäh ihlawk kyühkse khai ni. Acuna khyang hin angtüia käh a ngtüi law xaa ta a phäha daw bawk khai sü,” a ti.
25 And Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Is it I, Rabbi? He saith unto him, Thou hast said.
Phyehei khaia khyang Judah naw, “Rabbi, acun mä kei phäi aw?” a ti. Jesuh naw, “Ä, na pyen cang ve,” a ti.
26 And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it; and he gave to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.
Acukba ami ei k’um üng, Jesuh naw muk lo lü ktaiyü ma lü boki naw, axüisaw he üng a jah pet. “Lo u lü, ei ua; hin hin keia mtisa ni,” a ti.
27 And he took a cup, and gave thanks, and gave to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;
Acunüng, Jesuh naw khawt lo lü Pamhnam üng jenak mtheh lü, axüisaw he üng a jah pet. “Nami van naw hin aw ua.
28 for this is my blood of the covenant, which is shed for many unto remission of sins.
Hin hin ka thisen, Pamhnama khyütamnak kthai, khyang khawhah mkhyekatnak mhlätnak vaia lawngki ka thisen ni.
29 But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom.
Ka ning jah mthehki, ka paa Uknaka Khawa nangmi am ahina capyittui kthai am mi awk be yüm vei cäpa, hina capyittui kthai am ka aw be ti khai ni,” a ti.
30 And when they had sung a hymn, they went out unto the mount of Olives.
Acunüng, ng’äi mat ami mcuh käna, Olip mcung da citkie.
31 Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended in me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad.
“Tuh mthan, kei na hawih hüt u lü nami cen päih khaie. Cangcim üng a ng’yuka kba, ‘Pamhnam naw toksäm hnim se, toe cun ngpyangtaiei hü päih khaie’
32 But after I am raised up, I will go before you into Galilee.
Acunsepi, ka thawh be käna Kalile khawa nami maa ka na cit khai,” ti lü Jesuh naw a pyen.
33 But Peter answered and said unto him, If all shall be offended in thee, I will never be offended.
Pita naw msang lü, “Ami van naw ning cen ta päih u sepi, kei naw ta isüm am ning cen ta ngü,” a ti.
34 Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, that this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.
Jesuh naw, “Ka ning mthehki, tuh mthan ai am khawng ham se, nang naw kthum vei am na na ksing vaia na pyen khai,” a ti.
35 Peter saith unto him, Even if I must die with thee, [yet] will I not deny thee. Likewise also said all the disciples.
Pita naw, “Na thihnaka thih hnga vai ngü sepi acukba ta am ka pyen khai ni,” a ti. Acukba bäa axüisaw he ami van naw ti law hngakie.
36 Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto his disciples, Sit ye here, while I go yonder and pray.
Acunüng, Jesuh axüisaw he am alanga, Ketaseman ami tinaka hnün mat ami pha law üng, axüisaw he üng, “Caia ka va ktaiyü k’um üng, hin üng a na ngaw ua,” a ti.
37 And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and sore troubled.
Pita ja Zebedea capa xawi jah ngkhahpüi lü, a mlung na leng lengki.
38 Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: abide ye here, and watch with me.
Acunüng Jesuh naw jah mtheh lü, “Thi hlü awnga ka mlung khuikha ve. Ahin üng ve lü na ngängpüi ua,” ti lü a cehpüi kthum üng a jah mtheh.
39 And he went forward a little, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass away from me: nevertheless, not as I will, but as thou wilt.
Jesuh cun va cetca lü, mdeka a hmai bun lü, “Aw, ka pa aw, a thawn thei üng ta, hina khuikhatnak khawt hin ka vei üngka naw loina. Cunüngpi, keia ngjakhlüa käh thawn lü, na ngjakhlüa thawn se,” ti lü ktaiyüki.
40 And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour?
Acunüng law be lü, a hnükläk kthum cun a na ipei u se jah hmuh lü Pita üng, “Naji matca pi ami na na k’äihpüi khawhki aw?
41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
Hlawhlepnak üng nami lut msawk khai ni, ngäng lü ktaiyü ua. Mlungmthin ta yäng kyawki mtisa naw am lüi ve,” ti lü a mtheh.
42 Again a second time he went away, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cannot pass away, except I drink it, thy will be done.
Anghngihnaka va cit lü, “Aw ka pa aw, kei naw hina khuikhatnak khawt hin am aw ngü se am a thawn thei üng ta, na ngjakhlüa kya se,” ti lü ktaiyü betüki.
43 And he came again and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.
Ami veia a law be üng a axüisaw he a na ip betü u lü am mdei khaw u se a jah hmuh.
44 And he left them again, and went away, and prayed a third time, saying again the same words.
Jah hawih hüt lü akthumnaka acukba bä pyen lü va ktaiyü betüki.
45 Then cometh he to the disciples, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
Acunüng, axüisaw hea veia cit be lü, “Atuh vei cäpa ip lü nami hüieikie aw? Teng ua, Khyanga Capa cun khyangkaea kut üng msum vaia kcün pha law ve.
46 Arise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that betrayeth me.
“Tho law ua, mi cit vai. Teng ua, na phyeheikia khyang law ve,” a ti.
47 And while he yet spake, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and elders of the people.
Acukba, a na ngthuhei k'um üng, axüisaw he üngka Judah law lü, ktaiyü ngvaie, thumksinge ja axü ngvaie naw ami jah tüih law khyangpänu li kcim jah kpawmeikie a jah lawpüi.
48 Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he: take him.
Phyeheiki naw msingnak jah pe lü, “Ka mhnama khyang cun na ngjakhlüa khyanga kya khai, ani nami man vai,” a ti.
49 And straightway he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, Rabbi; and kissed him.
Judah cun Jesuh veia cit lü, “Rabbi, dimdeihnak ve se,” ti lü a mhnam.
50 And Jesus said unto him, Friend, [do] that for which thou art come. Then they came and laid hands on Jesus, and took him.
Jesuh naw, “Ka püi aw, ise na lawki ni?” a ti. Acun ja lawsih lü ami man u.
51 And behold, one of them that were with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and smote the servant of the high priest, and struck off his ear.
Jesuha a ngkhahpüi he üngka mat naw kcim ksetei lü ktaiyü ngvai säiha mpyaa hngakawi a ksawm pit.
52 Then saith Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into its place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
Jesuh naw, “Na kcim a venak üng ta bea, kcim xatnakie cun kcim am ni ami thih kawm.
53 Or thinkest thou that I cannot beseech my Father, and he shall even now send me more than twelve legions of angels?
Tukbäih ka pa veia ktaiyü ngü se, ani naw khankhawngsä he xaleinghngih khläih na tüih law pe khawhki ti, am nami ksingki aw?
54 How then should the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?
Ka ktaiyü üng, ihawkba Cangcim naw ahikba thawn law khai a ti, kümbe law khai ni?” a ti.
55 In that hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are ye come out as against a robber with swords and staves to seize me? I sat daily in the temple teaching, and ye took me not.
Acunkäna Jesuh naw, “Li kcime jah kawtei u lü Kei na man khaia nami lawki he aw? Kei hin khyang kse aw? Amhnüp tä, nami hlawnga ngaw lü templea jah mthei ngü se, am nami na manki.
56 But all this is come to pass, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples left him, and fled.
Acunsepi, ahin avan cun sahma hea pyen akümnak vaia kyaki ni,” a ti. Acunüng axüisaw he ami van naw hawih lü ami dawng tak.
57 And they that had taken Jesus led him away to [the house of] Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were gathered together.
Jesuh mankia khyang he naw ktaiyü ngvai säih Kaiphah ima, thumksinge ja axü ngvaiea ngcunnaka ami cehpüi.
58 But Peter followed him afar off, unto the court of the high priest, and entered in, and sat with the officers, to see the end.
Pita athuknak üngka naw ktaiyü ngvaia ngvawng cäpa läk hngaki. Lut hnga lü i a thawn law teng khaia, yekapa am ngaw yümkie.
59 Now the chief priests and the whole council sought false witness against Jesus, that they might put him to death;
Ktaiyü ngvaie ja Kawngci üngka ami van naw Jesuh ami hnimnak vaia am cangkia saksi suikie.
60 and they found it not, though many false witnesses came. But afterward came two,
Cunüngpi, khyang khawkän naw maa law u lü Jesuh mhleieikie kyaw, cunsepi i am hmuh u. Akpäihnaka khyang nghngih law ni lü,
61 and said, This man said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.
“Hina khyang naw, ‘Kei naw Pamhnama temple kpye lü amhnüp kthum üng ka sa be khawh khai’ tiki,” ti lü ani pyen law.
62 And the high priest stood up, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?
Ktaiyü ngvai säih naw tho law lü, “Ami ning mkatei na jah msangnak vai am na ksingeiki aw?” a ti.
63 But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God.
Acunsepi, Jesuh am khihkheh. Ktaiyü ngvai säih naw msang lü, “Xüngseikia Pamhnama ngming be lü ka ning kthähki: Pamhnama Capa, Khritaw Mesijaha na kya üng jah mtheha,” a ti.
64 Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Henceforth ye shall see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.
Jesuh naw, “Na pyen cang ve. Acunsepi, tuha Khyanga Capa cun a Johitmah säih khet da ngaw lü, ngmei üng kyum law se nami hmuh khai,” a ti.
65 Then the high priest rent his garments, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy: what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard the blasphemy:
Acunüng, ktaiyü ngvai säih naw a suisake jah ktekin lü, “Hin naw Pamhnam pyenksenaka ngthu pyen ve! Ahina thea ia saksi am hlü ti? Tuh kung Pamhnam a pyetsenak nami ngjaki.
66 what think ye? They answered and said, He is worthy of death.
Ihawkba nami ngaikie ja?” a ti. Amimi naw, “Ani mkhyekatki, thih kung khaia ngkawih ve,” ami ti.
67 Then did they spit in his face and buffet him: and some smote him with the palms of their hands,
Acunüng, a hmai üng msawh lü thäkie. Avang naw ami mja am kbei u lü,
68 saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ: who is he that struck thee?
“Nang Khritaw! Na nghmaki. U ja ni kbeiki? jah mtheha” ami ti.
69 Now Peter was sitting without in the court: and a maid came unto him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus the Galilaean.
Pita ngvawnga kpunga ngaw se, ktaiyü ngvaia mpya nghnumi mat naw a veia law lü, “Nang pi Kalile khyang Jesuh am nani ve yümki,” a ti.
70 But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest.
Cunsepi, Pita naw ami vana maa ngcim lü, “I na pyenki, am ksing nawng,” a ti.
71 And when he was gone out into the porch, another [maid] saw him, and saith unto them that were there, This man also was with Jesus the Nazarene.
Acunüng, akce mkawt da cit se, acuia mpya akce nghnumi naw hmuh lü, “Hina khyang pi, Nazaret Jesuh am ve yümki va ni kbak,” ti lü acuia awmki he üng a jah mtheh.
72 And again he denied with an oath, I know not the man.
Pita naw, “Ka ng’yünki, acuna khyang kei am ksing nawng” ti lü ngcim betüki.
73 And after a little while they that stood by came and said to Peter, Of a truth thou also art [one] of them; for thy speech bewrayeth thee.
Ivei am ngsawk se acuia ngdüikie naw law u lü, “Akcanga nang pi acun he üngka mata na kyaki ni, na ngthuhei üng ngsingei ve,” ami ti.
74 Then began he to curse and to swear, I know not the man. And straightway the cock crew.
Acunüng Pita naw, “Ka ng’yünki, akcang ni ka pyen. Ka hlei ka pyen üng Pamhnam naw na hmuh se. Acuna khyang am ksing nawng” a ti. Acukba a ngcim betü ja ainghlüi khawngki.
75 And Peter remembered the word which Jesus had said, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly.
Jesuh naw, “Ainghlüi am khawng ham se kthum vei ngcim lü na na ma khai,” a ti cen Pita naw süm law be lü kpunga cit lü aknuia kyapki.
