Luke 15
1 Many [HYP] tax collectors and [others whom people considered to be] habitual sinners kept coming to Jesus to listen to him teach.
Kaidong hole adang michonse ho Yeshua thuhil ngai dingin ahung jiuvin ahi.
2 The Pharisees and men who taught the [Jewish] laws [who were there] [SYN] began to grumble, saying, “This man welcomes sinners and he also [defiles himself by eating] with them!”
Hiche hin Pharisee hole hou danthu hil ho aphunchel sah tan, michonse hotoh akipol'in nejong anekhom uve! tin aseitauve.
3 So Jesus told them this parable:
Hijeh chun Yeshuan hiche thusim hi aseipeh in ahi:
4 “Suppose that one of you had 100 sheep. If one of them were lost, (you [(sg)] would certainly leave the 99 sheep in the pasture, and go and search for the one lost sheep until you found it./would you not leave the 99 sheep in the pasture, and go and search for the one lost sheep until you found it?) [RHQ]
“Mikhat in kelngoi jakhat neihen chule alah'a khat chu vahmang taleh, ipi bol tantem? Adang somko le ko ho chu gamthip a adalhah'a chule avahmang pachu amu tokah'a agahol lou ding ham?
5 When you [(sg)] found it, you would put it on your shoulders and be happy.
Chuteng ahinmu tengleh, kipah tah in a'in lam'a din alengkouvah hin kipoh tante.
6 When you brought it home, you would call together your friends and neighbors and say to them, ‘Be happy with me, because I have found my sheep that was lost!’
Ahung vailhun tengleh amapan aloi agol chule aheng akom koukhom in tin, ‘Nei kipa khom piuvin ajeh chu keiman ka kelngoi mangna chu kakimutai’ tinte.
7 I tell you [(pl)] that similarly [God] will be very happy about each and every sinner who turns from doing evil. God is not happy about 99 people who [think that they] are [IRO] righteous and think that they do not need to turn from doing evil.
Chutobang a chu michonse khat in lunghei na aneiya Pathen lama akile kit chun adang somko le ko lunghei ngailou michonpha ho chung sangin van'ah kipana aume. Sum-Pum Kimansah
8 Or, suppose that a woman has ten [very valuable] silver coins. If she loses one of them, (she will certainly light a lamp and sweep the floor and search carefully until she finds it!/will she not light a lamp and sweep the floor and search carefully until she finds it?) [RHQ]
Ahilouleh, tekah nan, numei khat hin sum dangka som aneiyin chule khat amansah tai. Amanun meivah adet'a insung pumpi atheh'a chule chingthei tah'a amu tokah'a ahol lou ding ham?
9 When she finds it, she will call together her friends and neighbors and say, ‘Be happy with me, [because] I have found the coin that I lost!’
Chule amanun hichu amuteng, aloi apai chule aheng akom cheng akoukhom ding, ‘Nei kipapiuvin, ajeh chu kasum mang kakinungmu tai’ atiding ahi.
10 I tell you that similarly the angels will be happy about [even just] one sinner who turns from doing evil.”
Chutobang chun van'ah Pathen Vantilte pan na'in, michonse khatseh lunghei na chungah kipana aum'e” ati.
11 Then [Jesus told them this parable to compare what the Pharisees and teachers of the Jewish law thought about those who turn from their sinful behavior with what God thinks about such people]. He said, “A certain man had two sons.
Athusei hilchet be theina din hiche thusim hi aseiyin ahi: “Mikhat in chapa ni aneiye.
12 One day the younger son said to his father, ‘Father, [I do not want to wait until you(sg) die]. Give me now the share of your property that belongs to me!’ So the man divided his property between his two sons.
Aneojo pan apa jah'a, ‘Nathi masangin nanei nagou kachan ding ho tun kadei tai’ ati. Hijeh chun apan achateni chu anei agou ho hoppeh dingin anomtai.
13 A few days later, the younger son [sold his share]. He gathered his money and other things together and went to a country far away. There he spent all his money foolishly in reckless/wild living.
Niphabep jouvin hiche chapa neojo pa chun anei jouse akisemtup in mun gamlatah a dingin achetai, chule hia chun asum le pai jouse hindan kinomsah nan asumang tai.
14 After he had spent all his money, there was a great famine throughout that country. And soon he did not have enough [food to] eat.
Chutia asum akiman chai phat chun, gamsunga chun kel nasatah alhan, kel athoh pan tai.
15 So he went to one of the landowners in that area and asked for work. The man sent him to work taking care of the pigs in his field.
Chumun'a loulhoumi khat in natoh apeh na dingin akithujon, amapan jong aloumun langah vohchate vah dingin asol'in ahi.”
16 [Because he was very hungry], he would have been glad to eat the bean pods that the pigs ate. But no one gave him anything to eat.
Khangdong pachu agilkel lheh tan, vohchate anehsah ji voh-an jeng jong chu twilheh dingin amitmun akilang tan ahi. Ahivangin koiman nehding ape tapon ahi.
17 Finally he thought clearly about what he had done. He said to himself, ‘All of my father’s hired servants have plenty of food! They have more [SYN] than they can eat, but here I am dying because I do not have anything to eat [HYP]!
“Achainakeiya ahung khahdoh phat chun, ama le ama akihoulim in, Ka-in ah soh thalah ho jengin jong anehval set'u anneh aneiyun, kei hiche'ah gilkel'a thidingin kaume! ati.
18 So I will leave here and go back to my father. I will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against God [MTY, EUP] and against you [(sg)].
Ka-in a kache ding kapa koma, ‘Hepa, van le nangma dounan kachonse tai,
19 I am no longer worthy to be called {of [you] calling me} your son. Just hire me to be like one of the other hired servants.”’
chule keima nacha tiding hoi kahitapoi. Lungset tah in soh thalah khat bangin nei sangin, tinge’ atitai.”
20 So he left there and went back to his father’s house. But while he was still some distance from the house, his father saw him. He pitied him. He ran to his son and embraced him and kissed him [on the cheek].
Chuin ama apa koma dingin inlam akile tai. Chule amapa mun gamlatah ahung gei nalaiyin, apan ahung amutan ahi. Ngailutna le khotona dimset pum'in achapa komah alhaiyin, akolchuh chuh in, achoptai.
21 His son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against God [MTY/EUP] and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called {of [you] calling me} your son.’
Achapan ahin seitai, “Hepa, keima van le nangma dounan kachonse tai, chule tun nacha tiding jong kalhing jou tapoi,” ati.
22 But his father said to his servants, ‘Go quickly and bring to me the best robe [in the house]! Then put it on my son. Put a ring on his finger [to show that I am honoring him again as my son]! Put sandals on his feet [to show that I do not consider him to be a slave]!
Ahinlah apan asohte komah aseitai, Gang'un! Insunga ponsil hoipen pen hinchoiyun lang silpeh un. Akhutjung'a akibu ding khutjem le akise ding kengchot hinchoiyun.
23 Then bring the fat calf and kill it [and cook it]. We [(inc)] must eat and celebrate,
Chule bongnou ivahthao uchu that un. Eihon golvah loupi tah a ilop diu ahi,
24 because my son has returned! [It is as though] [MET] he was dead and is alive again! [It is as though] he was lost and now has been found!’ So they did that, and they all began to celebrate.
ajehchu hiche kachapa hi athi anahitan, tua hi hung hingdoh kit ahi. Amangsa anahin, tua hi kimukit ahitai. Hiti chun golnop chu akipan tai.
25 While all that was happening, the man’s older son was out [working] in the field. When he came near to the house, he heard [people playing] music and dancing.
Chutia aumlai chun, chapa a'upajo pachu loulanga um natong ahi. Inlam ahung kile chun, in'a chun tumging le lam gin ajatan,
26 He called one of the servants and asked what was happening.
chuin asohte khat komah ipi thilsoh umham ti adongin ahi.
27 The servant said to him, ‘Your [younger] brother has come [home] Your father has [told us to] kill the fat calf [to celebrate] because your brother has returned safe and healthy.’
Nasopipa hung kile ahi, tin aseipeh un, chuleh napan bongnou thaotah chu athapeh ahi. Damsel'a ahunglhun jeh'a ilop'u ahi, tin aseipeh tai.
28 [But] the older brother was angry. He refused to enter [the house]. So his father came out and pleaded with him [to come in].
A'upajo pachu alung hangin insung alut tapon ahi. Apa ahungdoh in ahung tem'e,
29 But he replied to his father, ‘Listen to me! For many years I have worked for you like a slave. I always obeyed everything you told me to do. But you never even gave me a young goat, so that I could [kill it and cook it and] celebrate with my friends.
ahin aman adonbut in, Kum hijat hi nasoh banga kaum chule bol'in nati jouse kada na umkhalou ahi. Chuleh hiche phat jouse achun nangman kaloi kagol hotoh kaneh khom diuvin kelcha nou khatbeh neinape khapoi.
30 But this son of yours spent all the [money he got from] what you gave him. He spent it [to pay for sleeping with] prostitutes! Yes, now he has returned home, [but it is not fair that] you have told your [servants] to kill the fat calf [and cook it] for him!’
Ahivangin hiche nachapan noti ho chunga nasum jouse aveichai nungin, nangman bongnou thaotah nathapeh in nalop peh e, ati.
31 But his father said to him, ‘My son, you have always been with me, and all my property [that I did not give to your brother] has been yours.
Apan ajah'a aseiyin, “Ven, kachapa ngaitah, nangma kakomah naum jinge, chuleh kanei jouse jong hi nanga ahi.
32 But [it is as though] [MET] your brother was dead and is alive again! [It is as though] he was lost and now he has been found! So it is appropriate for us to be happy and celebrate!’”
Eihon hiche kipa nikho hi ilop diu ahi. Ijeh inem itile nasopipa hi athi'ah ahitan chule hung hingdoh kit ahi! Amangsa anahin, hinlah tun akimutai!” ati.
