Luke 24
1 Before dawn on Sunday those women went to the tomb. They took with them the spices that they had prepared [to put on Jesus’ body].
Nipi kal khat sung ni masabel ni zingsang tung in numei te sia a vawtkhol sa ngimnamtui te keng in, a dang numei te taw than ah pai khawm uh hi.
2 They discovered that the stone had been rolled away from [the entrance to] the tomb.
Amate in than pan in suangtum a ki lik sa in mu uh hi.
3 They went in the tomb, but the body of the Lord Jesus was not there!
Amate than sung ah tum uh a, Topa Jesus luang a mu bua uh hi.
4 They did not know what to think about that. Then suddenly two men wearing bright shining clothes stood by them!
Tasia ciang amate sia a lungmang tek mama uh a, en vun, mihing ni puan pak sitset sil in amate hui ah ding hi:
5 The [women] were frightened. As they prostrated themselves on the ground, the two men said to them, “(You should not be seeking someone who is alive in [a place where they bury] dead people!/Why are you seeking in [a place where they bury] dead people someone who is alive?) [RHQ]
Amate in lau kawm in, lei ah boksuk uh a, tua mihing te in amate tung ah, banghang in mihing sia mithi te sung ah zong nu ziam?
6 He is not here; he has (become alive again/risen from the dead)! Remember that while he was still with you in Galilee [district] he said to you,
Ama ziak ah om ngawl hi, tho zo hi: Galilee ah a om lai in note tung ah bangbang in hong son ziam, ci phawk tavun,
7 ‘[Even though I] am the one who came from heaven, [someone] will enable sinful men to seize [MTY] me. They will [kill me by] nailing me to a cross. But on the third day [after that], I will become alive [again].’”
Mihing Tapa sia mi ngilo te khut sung ah ap tu uh a, thinglamte tung ah khai tu uh hi, taciang nithum ni ciang in thokik tu hi, ci hi.
8 The [women] remembered that he had said that.
Taciang amate in Jesus kammal te phawkkik uh hi,
9 So they left the tomb and went to the eleven [apostles] and his other [disciples] and told them those things.
Taciang than pan heakkik uh a, Sawltak sawm le khat te le midang te kung ah hi thu te theampo son uh hi.
10 The ones who kept telling those things to the apostles were Mary from Magdala [village], Joanna, Mary who was the mother of James, and the other women [who were] with them.
Hi thu te Sawltakte kung ah a son te sia, Mary Magdalene, Joana le James nu Mary te a hi uh hi.
11 But the apostles thought that what the women [said] was nonsense. They did not believe what the women said.
Sawltakte in numei te kammal te sia tangthu banglel in ngaisun uh a, a um bua uh hi.
12 But Peter got up and ran to the tomb [anyway]. He stooped down [and looked inside]. He saw the linen cloths [in which Jesus’ body had been wrapped]. [The cloths were] by themselves (OR, [He did not see] anything else). So, wondering what had happened, he went home.
Tua zawkciang in Peter ding a, than sang ah tai hi; taciang kun in puanneam no a ki koi bek mu hi, taciang thu piang te lamdangsa mama in heakkik hi.
13 That same day two of [Jesus’ disciples] were walking to a village named Emmaus. It was about (seven miles/eleven kilometers) from Jerusalem.
Taciang, en vun, tua ni in amate sungpan mi ni te sia, Jerusalem pan tai sali kiim a khuala na mun Emmaus a kici khua ah pai khawm uh hi.
14 They were talking with each other about all the things that had happened [to Jesus].
Amate in hi thu piang te theampo kikum uh hi.
15 While they were discussing those things, Jesus himself approached them and started walking with them.
Tabang a kikup le a ngaisut khop uh laitak in Jesus Ama mama hong nai a, amate taw tonkhawm hi.
16 But they were prevented {[something] prevented them} from recognizing [MTY] him.
Ahihang amate in Jesus a hi hunlam a tel ngawl tu in a mit uh ki humsak hi.
17 [Jesus] said to them, “What have you two been talking about while you were walking?” They stopped, and their faces looked very sad.
Jesus in amate tung ah, Na paikawm in bang thu kikum nu ziam, banghang in maikhing nu ziam? ci hi.
18 One of them, whose name was Cleopas, said, “(You [(sg)] must be the only person who is visiting Jerusalem [for the Passover festival] who does not know the events that have happened there in recent days!/Are you the only person who is visiting Jerusalem [for the Passover festival] who does not know the events that have happened there in recent days?) [RHQ]”
Amate sung pan khat ahi, Cleopas a kici pa in, tulai thu piang te he ngawl in Jerusalem ah khual a haw nangmabek ni ziam? ci in zo kik hi.
19 He said to them, “What events?” They replied, “[The things that happened] to Jesus, [the man] from Nazareth, who was a prophet. Many people saw him [perform] great miracles, and God [enabled him] to teach wonderful [messages]!
Taciang Jesus in amate tung ah, Bang thu te ziam? ci hi. Amate in, Pathian le mi theampo mai ah sep na le kammal taw a vanglian mama kamsang khat, Nazareth mi Jesus thu a hihi:
20 But our chief priests and leaders handed him over [to the Roman authorities. The authorities] sentenced him to die, and they killed him by nailing him to a cross.
Thiampi lian te le ka ngam uk te in, thidan thuak tu in mawsiat uh a, thinglamte tung ah khai hi.
21 We [(exc)] were hoping that he was the one who would free [us] Israelites [from our enemies] But [this does not seem possible now, because] three days have [already] passed since that happened.
Ahihang Ama sia Israel te ngumpa tu in, ka lam-et mama uh a hihi: bek domngawl in, tu ni hi thu te a pian zawk ni thum na hi zo hi.
22 On the other hand, some women from our group amazed us. Early this morning they went to the tomb,
Kote sung ah numei te in hong lungmangsak belap lai hi, amate zingtung in than ah pai tek uh a;
23 but Jesus’ body was not there! They came [back] and said that they had seen some angels in a vision. The angels said that he was alive!
A luang a mu ngawl uh ciang in, heakkik uh a, amate in vantungmi te hong kilang mu uh hi, tua vantungmi in, Ama nungta hi, ci hi.
24 Then some of those who were with us went to the tomb. They saw that things were exactly as the women had reported. But they did not see [Jesus].”
Taciang kote sung pan mi pawlkhat te than ah pai uh a, numei te sonbang in mu uh hi: ahihang Ama a mu bua uh hi, ci hi.
25 He said to them, “[You two] foolish [men! You are so] slow to believe all that the prophets have written [about the Messiah]!
Taciang in Jesus in amate tung ah, Aw mi mamaw te, kamsang te sonkholsa um tu in na lungtang uh hai lei hi:
26 ([You should certainly have known that] it was necessary that the Messiah should suffer all those things [and die], and then enter his glorious [home in heaven]!/Was it not necessary that the Messiah should suffer all those things [and die], and then enter his glorious [home in heaven]?) [RHQ]”
Christ in hi thu te theampo a thuak zawkciang in Ama minthanna sung ah tum tu hi ngawl ziam? ci hi.
27 Then he explained to them all the things that [the prophets] had written in the Scriptures about himself. He started with what Moses [MTY] [wrote] and then explained to them what all the [other] prophets [wrote].
Moses laibu pan kipan kamsang laibu theampo laithiangtho theampo sung ah Ama thu a ki at te amate tung ah hilthiang hi.
28 They came near to the village to [which the two men] were going. Jesus indicated that he would go further,
A pai natu khua a thet dektak uh ciang: Jesus sia paisuak lai tu bang in om hi.
29 but they urged him [to not do that]. They said, “Stay with us [tonight], because it is late in the afternoon and it will soon be dark.” So he went in [the house] to stay with them.
Ahihang amate in, koma kung ah hong tam tan: banghangziam cile nitak sang hi zo a, khua niam mama zo hi, ci in tho hamtang uh hi. Taciang amate taw tam tu in pai hi.
30 When they sat down to eat, he took some bread and [asked God to] bless it. He broke it and gave [some pieces] to them.
Tua zawkciang in, amate taw an ne tu in to khawm tek uh hi, taciang anluum la a thupha pia hi, taciang phel a, amate pia hi.
31 And just then [God] enabled them to recognize [MTY] him. But [immediately] he disappeared!
Amate mitte te honsak a, amate in Jesus he uh hi; taciang amate mitmu pan in na bo zo hi.
32 The two men said to each other, “[While we were walking] along the road and he talked with us and [enabled] us [(inc)] to understand the Scriptures, we [became so excited that it was as though] [MET] a fire was burning within us [RHQ]! [We should not stay here; we should go tell the others what happened]!”
Amate khat le khat kung ah, lamkal ah hong paupui a, laithiangtho hong hilthiang laitak in, i thinsung ah mei bang in hong kang hi ngawl kana ziam? kici khawm uh hi.
33 So they left immediately and returned to Jerusalem. There they found the eleven [apostles] and others who had gathered together with them
Amate tua laitak ma in ding uh a, Jerusalem ah heakkik uh hi, taciang Sawltak sawm le khat te le a dang te munkhat ah a ki kaikhawm tek mu uh a,
34 who told [those two men], “It is true that the Lord has become alive again, and he has appeared to Peter!”
Topa sia tho takpi hi, taciang Simon kung ah kilang zo hi, ci uh hi.
35 Then those two [men] told [the others] what had happened [as they were walking] along the road. They also [told them how] they both recognized Jesus as he broke some bread [for them].
Amate in lamkal lak ah thu piang te le anluum a bal ciang in Topa hi, ci a heak thu te son uh hi.
36 As they were saying that, Jesus himself [suddenly] appeared among them. He said to them, “[May God give] you [inner] peace!”
Amate a kikup uh laitak in, Jesus sia amate laizang ah hong ding a, Note tung ah thinnopna om tahen, ci hi.
37 They were startled and afraid, [because] they thought that they were seeing a ghost!
Ahihang amate in thitha mu ki sa uh a, lau mama uh hi.
38 He said to them, “(You should not be alarmed!/Why are you alarmed?) [RHQ] And (you should not be doubting [that I am alive]/Jesus!/why are you doubting [that I am alive]/Jesus?) [RHQ]
Jesus in amate tung ah, Banghang in patau nu ziam? banghang in na thinsung uh ah a tatuam ngaisun nu ziam?
39 Look at [the wounds in] my hands and my feet! You can touch me and see [my body]. Then you can see that it is really I myself. [You can tell that I am really alive] because ghosts do not have bodies, as you see that I have!”
En vun, ka khut le ka peang te, keima tatak ma khi hi: hong tham tavun a hong en tavun; ngu le tang te ka nei na mu uh bang in, thitha in ngu le tang nei ngawl hi, ci hi.
40 After he said that, he showed them [the wounds in] his hands and his feet.
Jesus in a son zawkciang in, amate a khut le a peang te lak hi.
41 They were joyful and amazed, [but] they still did not believe [that he was really alive] (OR, [that Jesus was the one that they were seeing]). [So] he said to them, “Do you have anything here to eat?”
Amate lungdam le lamdang asak uh hu in a up ngawl uh ciang, Jesus in amate tung ah, Ziak sung ah neak thei khatpo na nei uh ziam? ci hi.
42 [So] they gave him a piece of broiled fish.
Amate in ngasa em bakkhat le khuai phang khat pia uh hi.
43 While they were watching, he took it and ate it.
Jesus in la a, amate mai ah ne hi.
44 Then he said to them, “[I will repeat] what I told you while I was still with you: Everything that was written about me by Moses and the [other] prophets [MTY] and in the Psalms must be fulfilled!”
Taciang Jesus in amate tung ah, Hi kammal te sia note taw ka om lai in kong son te a hihi, Moses thukham, kamsang laibu te le Psalms labu sung ah keima thu a ki atkhol theampo te a tangtut hamtang na a hihi, ci hi.
45 Then he enabled them to understand [the things that had been written about him in] the Scriptures.
Taciang laithiangtho a tel thei natu in amate heaktheina honsak a,
46 He said to them, “This is what they wrote: That the Messiah would suffer [and die], but on the third day after that he would become alive again.
Amate tung ah, Hibang in ki atkhol hi, Christ sia a thuak kul hamtang a, thina pan nithum ni ciang in thokik tu hi:
47 [They] also [wrote that the message] must be preached {[that his disciples] must preach [the message]} [everywhere that people] must turn from their sinful ways for [God] to forgive their sins. [They wrote that his followers should preach that message, claiming] his authority [MTY]. They wrote that they should start [preaching] it in Jerusalem, and then [go and] preach it to all ethnic groups.
Jerusalem pan kipan in minam theampo tung ah, Ama min taw mawna ki sikkik na le mawmaisak na thu pualak tu hi.
48 You [apostles] must tell people that you know that those things [that happened to me] are true.
Taciang note sia hi thu te i tetti te na hi uh hi.
49 And I want you to know that I will send the [Holy Spirit] [MTY] to you, as my Father promised that [he would do]. But you must stay in this city until God fills you with the power [of his Spirit].”
Taciang, en vun, ka Pa kamciam sia note tung ah hong puak khi hi: ahihang tungsang pan vangletna taw hong tuam mateng, Jerusalem ah om nginge vun, ci hi.
50 Then [Jesus] led them outside [the city] until they came near Bethany [village]. There he lifted up his hands and blessed them.
Taciang Jesus in amate sia Bethany dong paipui a, a khut lamto in, amate thupha pia hi.
51 As he was doing that, he left them [and went up to heaven].
Thupha a piak laitak in, amate kung pan kikhen a, vantung ah ki lato hi.
52 They worshipped him. And then they returned to Jerusalem very joyfully.
Amate in Jesus a biak zawk uh ciang in, Jerusalem ah lungdamna lianpi taw heakkik tek uh hi:
53 Each day [SYN] they went into the Temple [courtyard], and spent a lot of time praising God.
Amate tatsat ngawl in biakinn sung ah om uh a, Pathian pok in thupha pia tek uh hi. Amen.
