Matthew 4
1 Then, Jesus was led up into the wilderness, by the Spirit, to be tempted by the adversary;
Acunüng Jesuh cun Khawyai naw a hlawhlep vaia Ngmüimkhya naw khawmkyang khawa a cehpüi.
2 and, fasting forty days and forty nights, —afterwards, he hungered.
Jesuh cun khawmhnüp kphyükip la mthan kphyükip ei jeih se, a ei cawi lawki.
3 And, coming near, the tempter said to him, —If thou art God’s, Son, speak! that, these stones, may become, loaves.
Acunüng Khawyai cun a veia law lü, “Nang Pamhnama caa na kya kcang üng, hina lung he hin muka thawn law khai hea jah mtheha” a ti.
4 But, he, answering, said, It is written, —Not on bread alone, shall man live, but on every declaration coming forth through the mouth of God.
Jesuh naw “Khyang cun muk am xüngki am ni, cunüngpi Pamhnama ngthukhyü am va xüngki tia cangcim üng awmki” ti lü a pyen.
5 Then, the adversary taketh him with him, unto the holy city, —and he set him upon the pinnacle of the temple;
Acunkäna Khawyai naw Jesuh cun Jerusalem Mlüh Ngcim, a hlüngnak säih Temple khana cehpüi lü,
6 and saith to him—If thou art God’s, Son, cast thyself down, —for it is written, To his messengers, will he give charge concerning thee; and, on hands, will they bear thee up, lest once thou strike, against a stone, thy foot.
“Nang Pamhnama capa kcang na ni üng, ahin üngka naw kco lü ‘Pamhnam naw a khankhawngsä he jah mtheh khai ni; acun he naw ami kut am ning na man khaie ni, acunüng na khaw naw lung he am jah hne yah khai ni’” ti lü cangcim üng awmki ni a ti.
7 Jesus said to him, Again, it is written, —Thou shalt not put to the test, the Lord thy God.
Jesuh naw, “Na Bawipa Pamhnam ä na hlawhlep vai ti lü pi cangcim üng ng'yuki ni” a ti.
8 Again, the adversary taketh him with him, into an exceeding high mountain, —and pointeth out to him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory;
Acunkäna Khawyai naw Jesuh cun khawmcung k'hlüngnua khana cehpüi lü khawmdeka bawinak ja a hlüngtainak he cun a mhnüh.
9 and said to him, All these things, will I give thee, —if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
Khawyai naw, “Ngdäng lü na na sawkkhah üng ahin he avan ka ning pe khai,” a ti.
10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Withdraw, Satan! for it is written, —The Lord thy God, shalt thou worship, and, to him alone, render divine service.
Jesuh naw, “Satan akcea cita, na Pamhnam däk va sawkhah lü, ani däka khut va na pawh vai ti lü cangcim üng awmki” a ti.
11 Then, the adversary leaveth him, —and lo! messengers came near, and began ministering unto him.
Acunkäna Khawyai naw ceh ta se, khankhawngsä he law u lü Jesuh cun kuei lawki he.
12 And, hearing that, John, had been delivered up, he retired into Galilee;
Johan thawngim üng ami khyum a ngjak üng Jesuh cun Kalilea citki.
13 and, forsaking Nazareth, he came and fixed his dwelling in Capernaum, which was by the lake, —within the bounds of Zebulun and Naphtali:
Nazaret khaw ceh ta lü Zebulung ja Naptalih hne, Kalile tuilinu pei Kapenawm mlüha awmki.
14 that it might be fulfilled, which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying:
Acun cun sahma Hesajah naw a na pyen a kümceinak vaia kyaki.
15 Land of Zebulun, and land of Naphtali, the lake-way across the Jordan, —Galilee of the nations,
“Mliktui da lamki lam läka awmki; Zebulung khaw la Naptalih khaw, Jordan mliktui yea, khyang mjükce hea venak Kalile,
16 The people that was sitting in darkness, a great light, beheld, —and, on them who were sitting in land and shade of death, Light rose on them.
nghmüp k'uma awmki hea khyang he naw akvai hmu khaie. Thihnak khaw nghmüp k'uma awmki hea khana akvai pha law khai ni” ti lü a pyen.
17 From that time, began Jesus to be making proclamation, and saying, —Repent ye, for the kingdom of the heavens hath drawn near.
Acun üngkhyüh tün lü Jesuh naw, “Ngjut ua, Khankhaw Pe ng'et law ve” ti lü ngthu pyenki.
18 And, walking round beside the sea of Galilee, he saw two brethren—Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, —casting a large fishing-net into the sea, for they were fishers;
Jesuh Kalile tuili kama a ceh üng ngbengna xawi Sihmon (Pita ami ti) ja a na Andru ngaksui xawi, ng'üntui üng ngvai ani vawi k'um üng jah hmu lü,
19 and he saith unto them, Come after me, —and I will make you fishers, of men.
Jesuh naw, “Na läk law nia, nga nani suia mäiha kei naw khyang ksui ning ka ning jah mthei khai ni” a ti.
20 And, they, straightway, leaving the nets, followed him.
Acunüng ani ngvai jah hawih hüt ni lü Jesuh läki xawi.
21 And, going forward from thence, he saw other two brethren—James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother—in the boat with Zebedee their father, putting in order their nets, —and he called them.
Acunkäna va cit betü lü ngbengna xawi Jakuk ja Johan, Zebedea ca xawi, ani pa mah am mlawng üng ani ngvai jah pyanei ni se jah hmu lü a jah khü.
22 And, they, straightway, leaving the boat and their father, followed him.
Acunüng akjanga ani mlawng ja ani pa jah hawih hüt ni lü Jesuh läki xawi.
23 And Jesus was going round throughout all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and proclaiming the glad-message of the kingdom, —and curing every disease, and every infirmity, among the people.
Jesuh cun Kalile pei avan üng cit hü lü, Sinakok k'uma jah mthei lü, Pamhnama Khawa thangkdaw jah mtheh lü am phetkiea natnak hlikhaü mjüküm üng khuikhaki he jah mdaw beki.
24 And forth went the report of him into all Syria; and they brought unto him all who were sick, with divers diseases and tortures, distressed, demonized and lunatic and paralyzed, —and he cured them.
Jesuh cun Siria hne abäng üng ngthang hü se, khyang kkun he, hlikhaü mjüküm naw a jah hui he, khawyaia a jah awmnak he, mcimpawm nawt lü ngtawng hüki he, akxo he a veia jah lawpüi u se a jah mdaw be.
25 And there followed him large multitudes—from Galilee, and Decapolis, and Jerusalem, and Judaea, and across the Jordan.
Kalile khaw üngka, Dekapoli khaw üngka, Jerusalem mlüh üngka, Judah khaw üngka, Jordan mliktui kam üngka, khyang khawhah naw Jesuha hnu läki he.
