< Luke 10 >

1 After that, the Lord Jesus appointed 72 other [people]. He [prepared to] send them out, two-by-two, to every town and village where he [SYN] intended to go.
Erah lilih Teesu ih wahoh wah rook sinet wah nyi danje ano wanyi wanyi et daapkaatta, marah doh heh kaat theng ah erah hah adi hengah hengah ih ban kaat thukta.
2 He said to them, “The [people who are ready to receive my message] are like a field [of] [MET] [grain] that is ready for [people] to harvest {to be harvested}. But there are not many people [to bring them to God]. So pray and ask the Lord [God] to send [more] workers [who will gather people together and teach them my message, just like a landowner sends workers] into his fields [to gather the] harvest.
Heh ih neng suh baatta, “Chamkhan theng erah ni ephoop je ah, enoothong ekhante ah amasah. Phek changte wah asuh rangsoom koh an heh ih cham khante toomdaap jaha suh ah.
3 Start going; but [remember that] I am sending you [(pl)] out [to tell my message to people who will try to get rid of you. You will be] like lambs among wolves.
Kah an! Ngah ih sen so dung ni saapsah likhiik et daapkaat rumhala.
4 Do not take along [any money in] a purse. Do not take a traveler’s bag. Do not take [extra] sandals. Do not [spend a lot of time] greeting people along the way.
Sen ngunkhaak adoleh kunma khaak adoleh lah khoop sen ih lahuitheng; lam nah sen ih tangchap anno mih lasoom theng.
5 Whenever you enter a house [to lodge there], first say to those people, ‘May [God give inner] peace to [you people] [MTY] [in] this house!’
Maatok doh sen mih nok nah nop an, erah doh jaakhoh sen ih li theng, ‘Arah nok adoh semroongroong toomtong an.’
6 If people who [live] there [are (desiring to have]/worthy of receiving) [God’s] peace, they will experience the [inner] peace that you are [offering them]. If people who [live] there [are not desiring to have God’s] peace, you [will experience God’s inner] peace, [but they will not].
Erah doh semroongroong ih tongsongte mina tong abah, sen ih marah jengkhaapse jengtan rah neng damdam toomtong ah; lah angka bah, marah semroongroong ih tong suh jengseeraatan ah ngaaktoon etheng.
7 [If they welcome you], stay in that same house [until you leave that village]. Do not move around from one house to another. Eat and drink whatever they provide for you. A worker deserves to get pay [MET] [from the people for whom he works, so you deserve to receive food and a place to stay from the people to whom you go].
Erah noknok adoh tong anno neng ih tumjih kohan erah phaksah an, tumeah paknaate suh heh thaang ekotjih. Nok hoh nok hoh nah laleng tongtheng.
8 Whenever you enter a town and the people [there] welcome you, eat what is provided {what [they] provide} for you.
Mararah sa doh samthung ko ih kah andoh mih ih nok nah noppoon hanbah, tumjih kohan erah phaksah an,
9 Heal the people there who are sick. Tell them, ‘It is almost [time for] God to send his king to rule [MET] [your lives].’
erah samthung dowa khoisatte ah deesiit an, eno miloong asuh baat an, ‘Rangte Hasong ah sen reeni thok hala.’
10 But if you enter a town whose [people] do not welcome you, go into its [main] streets and say,
Enoothong mararah samthung adoh sen tanoppoon ran, erah dowa taakkhuung nah dokkhoom anno li an,
11 ‘[Because you have refused to hear our message, we(exc) will not only leave], we will also shake off the dust of your town that clings to our sandals, to warn you [that God will reject/punish you]. But [we want you to know that] it is almost [the time when] God will start to rule!’
‘Sen hah nawa bungwiik seng lah ni rapla taan anep sen suh thichoh ih no saaphuk thiin hi. Enoothong samthun et an Rangte Hasong abah sen reeni thok ehala!’
12 I will tell you this: On the [MTY] [final] day when [God judges everyone], he will punish the wicked people [MTY] who long ago lived in Sodom, [the city that he destroyed because its people were so wicked]. But he will punish [even] more severely the people [MTY] of any town [whose people refused to hear your message]!”
Ngah ih amiimi et baat rumhala Daande Saadoh Rangte ih erah samthung nang ih Sodom hah asuh tenthet ehan noisok ah!
13 “There will be terrible [punishment] for [you people who live in] [MTY] Chorazin and Bethsaida [cities]. I did great miracles in your cities [to show God’s power, but you did not turn from your sinful behavior]. If the miracles that I performed in your [cities] had been done in Tyre and Sidon [cities], the wicked people who lived there would have long ago [shown that they were sorry for their sins by] sitting on the ground wearing coarse cloth and putting ashes on their heads.
“Tumthan echoojih ang ah sen raangtaan suh ah, Korajin mina loong! Tumthan echo theng ang ah, Betsaida mina loong asuh nep ah! Epaatja jih marah sen suh noisok tahan erah Tairi nyia Sidoon suh noisokta bah, neng ih ehak doh dook khuupo nyuh ah wok rum ano, neng sak nah laabot pan ih neng ah rangdah nawa esa eti ih noisok theng rumta!
14 [But they did not have the opportunity that you have, so when God punishes people, he will punish the wicked people who lived in] Tyre and Sidon, but he will punish you more severely [because you did not pay attention to my message].
Rangte ih sen nang ih Dande Saadoh Tairi nyia Sidoon suh heh tenthet ah ehan ih noisok ah.
15 [I also have something to say to] you [people who live in] Capernaum [city]. (Do not [think that you will be honored] {[that God] will honor you} in heaven!/Do you [think that you will be honored] {[that God] will honor you} in heaven?) [RHQ] [That will not happen! On the contrary], [after you die, God] will send you down to the place where [sinful people] will be punished [forever]!” (Hadēs g86)
Eno Kapernum miloong! Sen teeteewah ah rang nah jen wang ih eh tam liitan? Sen ah soolam nah dat haatte ang halan!” (Hadēs g86)
16 [Jesus also said to the disciples, “God will consider that] those who listen to your [message] are listening to me, and that those who reject your [message] are rejecting me. And [he will consider that] those who reject me are rejecting [God], the one who sent me.”
Jisu ih heliphante loong suh baatta, “O mina ih sen jeng boichaat han erah ih nga jeng uh boichaat ehang; O ih sen danhaat han; erah ih ngah uh danhaat et hang; eno o ih ngah danhaat hang erah ih ngah daap teewah ah nep danhaat ha.”
17 The 72 [people whom Jesus appointed went and did as he told them to]. When they returned, they were very joyful. They said, “Lord, [people did what we(exc) told them to do]! Demons also obeyed us when by your [(sg)] authority [MTY] [we commanded them to leave people]!”
Wah rook sinet wanyi ah tenroon lam ih ngaak wang rum taha, “Teesu,” neng ih liita,” Juungbaan ih nep seng jeng chaat eta seng ih an mendi dokphan kino ah!”
18 Jesus replied, “[When those demons were obeying you, because God had enabled you to defeat them, it was as though] [MET] I saw Satan fall from heaven [as suddenly and quickly] as lightning [strikes].
Jisu ih ngaakbaatta rumta, “Ngah ih Soitaan ah rang nawa weephaak daat raaha rah likhiik tup ettang.
19 Listen! I have given you authority so that if you oppose evil spirits [MET] [they will not hurt you]. I have given you authority to defeat our enemy, [Satan]. Nothing shall hurt you.
Boichaat an! “Ngah ih sen suh ejenjih chaan koh rumhala, eno ba sen pu nyia siingngaangraang khonah nep jen khoom an erah damdoh sen Piiara chaan anep jen an, eno tumjih ih uh sen tathet haat ran.
20 But [although] you can rejoice that evil spirits obey you, you should rejoice [more] that your names have been written {that [God] has written your names} in heaven, [because you will be with God forever].”
Enoothong sen jeng juungbaan ih chaat ha ih nak mokroon an; erah nang ih bah sen men ah rang ni raangha asuh thong roon an.”
21 At that time the Holy Spirit caused [Jesus] to be very happy. He said, “Father, you [(sg)] rule over [everything in] heaven and [on] the earth! Some [people think that they are] wise [because] they are well-educated. But I thank you that you have prevented them from [knowing] these things. [Instead], you have revealed them to [people who accept your truth as readily] [MET] [as] little children [do]. Yes, Father, [you have done that] because it seemed good to you [to do] so.”
Erah tokdi Jisu ah Esa Chiiala ih tenroon thuk ano liita, “Ewah, rang nyia hah Teesu! ngah ih an suh lakookmi li hala tumeah an ih lajatte loong asuh jaatthuk hu marah jatwah loong re nawa taat huthiintu loong ah jatthuk hu. Elang euh, Ewah, erah ah an ih jamtu loong aju angla.
22 [Jesus also said to the 72 disciples], “[God], my Father, has revealed to me all [I need to know and the power I need for my work]. Only my Father knows who I [really] am. Furthermore, only I and those [people] to whom I wish to reveal him know what [God] my Father is [like].”
“Sengwah ih ngah suh jaatrep ah kotahang. O ih uh heh Sah ah tajatka heh wah luulu ih ba jat ha, erah damdi, o ih uh heh wah ah tajatka heh sah luulu ih ba jat ha eno o mina suh jatthuk suh heh Sah ih daanje ha erah ih baajat ha.”
23 Then when Jesus’ disciples were alone with him, he turned toward them and said, “[God] is pleased with you [SYN] who have seen [the things that I have done]!
Erah dowa ih Jisu ih heliphante loong ko ih leksok ano neng suh ngiija ni dan baatta, “Sen tumthan khangraangse ah sen ih tumjih japtup han erah tup an no ah!
24 I want you to know that many prophets and kings [who lived long ago] desired to see the things that you are seeing [me do], but these things did not [happen] then. They longed to hear the things that you have been hearing [me say], but these things were not [revealed to them] then.”
Ngah ih sen suh baat rumhala khowah nyia luungwang loong ih uh sen ih marah tup han erah ah tup suh taatthun rumha, ang abah uh neng ih tajaptup rumka, nyia sen ih marah chaat han, erah japchaat suh taatthun rumha ang abah uh neng ih tajap chaat rumka.”
25 [One day as Jesus was teaching people], a man was there who had studied carefully the laws that [God gave Moses]. He wanted to ask Jesus a difficult question. So he stood up and asked, “Teacher, what shall I do in order to live [with God] forever?” (aiōnios g166)
Hootthe Nyootte ah ra haano Jisu jeng matjoot thunta, eno heh ih chengta,” Nyootte,” “Babah uh lathoonka roidong ah chosuh, ngah ih tumjih et angdoh se ah?” (aiōnios g166)
26 Jesus said to him, “You [(sg)] have read [RHQ] what [Moses] has written in the laws that [God gave him]. What did Moses write about living forever?”
Jisu ih ngaakbaatta, “Rangteele ni mamet liita leh? Sen ih erah mamah kah ih toombaat an?”
27 The man replied, “[He wrote that] we [(inc)] must love the Lord our God. [We must show that] by what we feel and by what we do and by what we think. [He] also [wrote that we must love] people that we come in contact with as much as [we love] ourselves.”
Erah mih rah ih ngaakbaatta, “‘An Teesu Rangte ah an ten nawa ih minchan uh, an chiiala nawa, an tah nawa ih, an thung atak nawa ih minchan uh’ nyia ‘ankhuung antok ah an teewah thanthan ih minchan uh.’”
28 Jesus replied, “You [(sg)] have answered [your question] correctly. If you do all that [continually], you will live [with God forever].”
Jisu ih ngaakbaatta, “An ih epun baat et hu,” Erah loong ah re uno ba khothing tong uh.”
29 But the man wanted to defend [the way] he [acted toward people that he came in contact with] (OR, to defend why he [had asked a question that Jesus answered so simply]). So he said to Jesus, “Which people that I come in contact with [should I love]?”
Enoothong Hootthe Nyootte warah ih jatririh di, Jisu suh chengta, “Khuung atok ah nga raang ih o ah ang ah?”
30 Jesus replied [by telling him this illustration]: “A [Jewish] man was once going down along the road from Jerusalem to Jericho. Bandits attacked him. They took away [most of] the man’s clothes [and everything else that he had], and they beat him until he was almost dead. Then they left him.
Jisu ih ngaakbaatta, “Teewadi mih wasiit Jerusalem nawa Jeriko ni dat kah adi miputte loong ih joh rumta, eno put rum, ebot ah buh rum, eno lam ni etek nanah ih thiinhaat rum.
31 It happened that a [Jewish] priest was going along that road. When he saw that man, [instead of helping him], he passed by on the other side [of the road].
Eno erah lam adi romwah wasiit dat khoom kata; eno mih rah tup ano, heh ih jiit khoom ano, lamhoh ko ih kata.
32 Similarly, a man who worked in the temple [in Jerusalem] came to that place and saw the man. But he also passed by on the other side [of the road].
Emamah Leewi nok hah we ra taha, no mih rah sok ano, lamhoh ko ih siip khoomta.
33 Then a man from Samaria [province] came along that road to where the man was lying. [People from Samaria despise Jews. But] when he saw that man, he pitied him.
Enoothong Samaria nok hah wasiit ra haano, mih ah sokta, eno erah sok ano, heh minchan dongta.
34 He went over to him and put some [olive] oil and wine on his wounds [to help heal them]. He wound strips of cloth [around the wounds]. He placed the man on his own donkey and took him to an inn and took care of him.
Heh ah heh re ko ih kah ano, phonthiing nyia kham ih hema ah mook ano loopkhakta; no naangjam nokmong ko ih toon hu wan ano, naririh ih soksam wanta.
35 The next morning he gave two silver coins to the innkeeper and said, ‘Take care of this man. If you [(sg)] spend more than this amount [to care for him], I will pay you back when I return.’”
Saalih adi heh ih jaan ngun loonyi dok ano nok bansokte asuh kota, eno baat thiinta, ‘Arah wah ah ban sok weeuh joh,’ ngah arah lam we ih ngaak wanghang adoh, an ngun mathan wang ah erah we ngaakthem et wan ah.’”
36 Then Jesus said, “Three people [saw] the man whom bandits attacked. Which one of them [acted in a loving way toward] that man?”
Eno Jisu ih thoonbaatta, “An thung ni erah wajom tung dowa ih, miputte ih noopbuta wah ah marah ih hekhuung hetok likhiik noisokta?”
37 The man who studied the Scriptures replied, “The one who acted mercifully toward him.” Jesus said to him, “You [(sg)] go and act like that [toward] everyone whom [you can help]!”
Hootthe Nyootte rah ih ngaakbaatta, “Marah ih heh minchanta erah warah ih.” Jisu ih baatta, “An kah uno, emamah ih re uh.”
38 As Jesus and his disciples continued to travel, they entered a village [near Jerusalem]. A woman whose name was Martha invited them to come to her house.
Jisu nyia heliphante loong lam ni kaat tokdi, hadaang esiit adi minuh heh men ah Martha ih heh nok ni poonwanta.
39 Her [younger] sister, whose name was Mary, sat near Jesus. She was listening to what he was teaching.
Erah nuh adi heh no esiit heh men ah Meeri angta, erah nuh rah Teesu lathong adi kottong ano heh jengkhaap ah boichaatta.
40 But Martha was very much concerned about preparing [a meal]. She went to Jesus and said, “Lord, (you do not seem to care that my sister has left me to prepare everything by myself!/do you not care that my sister has left me to prepare everything by myself?) [RHQ] Tell her that she should help me!”
Martha ah mongjoong angta jaatrep pakna theng ah hesuh totoh thiinhaat kot kano ah, eno heh ah ra haano liita, “Teesu, “An ih tanih jatko nga no ih jaatrep pakna theng ah ngah suh totoh thiin haat kohalang rah ah? Baat weeuh nga damdoh toomroong pakna wang weeha!
41 But the Lord replied, “Martha, Martha, you [(sg)] are very worried about many things.
Teesu ih ngaakbaatta, “Martha, Martha! An ah jaatrep suh sootsaamlu nyia chamnaanglu,
42 But only one thing is truly necessary, and that is, [to listen to what I am teaching]. Mary has decided to [do that], and that is better [than worrying]. [The blessing that she is receiving from listening to me] will not be taken away from her {No one will take away from her [the blessing that she is receiving from listening to me]}.”
enoothong esiit luulu ba an ih wakjamjih. Meeri ih epunjih lam ah danjeeha, eno erah ah heh dowa lah ngaak toonjih.”
