< Luke 8 >
1 Soon after that, Jesus went, along with his twelve [disciples], through various cities and villages. As they went, he was telling people the good message about how God wants (to have complete control/to rule) [MET] [over their lives].
Rekam ritdi Jisu ih Ruurang Ese Rangte Hasong tiit ah tumbaat suh hadaang hadaang nyia samthung loong adi dokkhoomta. Asih wanyi heliphante loong uh heh damdi roong kata,
2 Some women from whom he had expelled evil spirits and healed of diseases also [went with him]. These included Mary, the woman from Magdala [village], from whom [he had expelled] seven evil spirits;
erah damdi minuh loong neng khoisat deesiitta nyia laathih pan deesiitte loong ah anep roong karumta: Meeri (Magdaleni ih poonta rah), heh sak nawa laathih sinet dokphanta nuh ah;
3 Joanna, the wife of Chuza, who was one of [King] Herod [Antipas’] officials; Susanna; and many others. They were providing some of their own funds [to help Jesus and his disciples].
Joanna, heh sawah Chuja ah Hirod luungwang noklong ni saahaap angta rah. Erah damdi Susanna, nyia minuh ehoh loong Jisu nyia heliphante loong suh neng ngun ah koh ano chosok rumta rah lang ih rumta.
4 A large crowd of people came to Jesus from many towns. Then he told them this parable:
Miloong ah Jisu jiinni samthung harep nawa lomkhoom rum taha; eno miloong ah hantek lomthutthi kano, Jisu ih arah tiitthaak ah baat rumta:
5 “A man went out [to his field] to sow [some] seeds. As he was scattering them over the soil, some [of the seeds] fell on the path. Then [people] walked on those seeds, and birds ate them.
“Ehak di mih wasiit ih raanjih wen kaatta. Heh ih phek ni raanjih ah wenkaat adi, mararah raanjih ah lam ni datta, eno mih ih noopnak kaat, erah damdi woh ih nep toontop kaat.
6 Some [of the seeds] fell on rock [on which there was a thin layer of] moist [soil]. As soon as the seeds grew, the plants dried up because they had no moisture.
Mararah ah jong hah ni datta, eno hephook ah dong ano, paakwaan ah laje thoidi laan hookti ruh eta.
7 Some [of the seeds] fell on [ground that contained roots of] thorny [weeds]. The thorny weeds grew [together] with the young plants, and [they] crowded out [those plants].
Mararah raanteh ah suh haang rok ni datta, eno hak ano champhook ah suh haang rah ih loopjota.
8 But some of the seeds fell on good soil and grew [well]. [Each seed later] produced 100 [grains].” Then Jesus called out to them, “If you want to understand [MTY] this, you must consider [carefully what I have just said]!”
Eno mararah raanteh ah hah se ni datta; eno champhook ah hak ano, hetiik ah chaasiit chaasiit ih dong tiikta.” Jisu ih thoonbaat rumta, “Eno bah, chaat et an, sen na je abah ah!”
9 Jesus’ disciples [later] asked him about the meaning of the parable [he had just told].
Heliphante loong ah ih Jisu suh erah tiitthaak ah tumjih men ettu ih cheng rumta,
10 He said, “God is revealing to you what he did not reveal before, about [how he wants to] rule [MET] [over people’s lives]. But when I am telling other people about [these things, I tell them] only in parables. The result will be [like a prophet predicted long ago]: They will see [what I am doing], but will not perceive [what it means]. They will hear [what I am saying], but will not understand [it].
eno heh ih ngaakbaat rumta, “Rangte Hasong husalam ah jen thoijat suh sen suh bah thung atak koh rumhala, enoothong wahoh loong suh bah tiitthaak lam ih ju raaha, erah thoidoh neng ih taatsok rum abah uh tattup rumka ang ah, nyia chaat rum abah uh tasamjat rumka ang ah.
11 So this is the meaning of that parable: The seeds [represent] God’s message.
“Tiitthaak tiit ah arah suh liiha: Raanjih ah Rangte tiitkhaap.
12 [Some people are like] the path on which some of [the seeds fell]. When these people hear God’s message, the devil comes and causes them to forget what they have heard. As a result, they do not believe it, and will not be saved {[God] will not save them}.
Raanjih lam ni datta rah tiitkhaap chaatte asuh liita, enoothong Juungbaan luuwang ah thok haano neng ten nawa jengkhaap ah nge rum ah, Rangte suh hanpi rum ano neng khopi theng pho ang rum ah eah.
13 [Some people are like] the [soil with] rock [underneath]. When they hear [God’s] message, they accept it joyfully. [But because it does not penetrate deeply] [MET] [into their inner beings], they believe it for [only] a [short] time. [They are like the plants that] did not have [deep] roots. When difficult things happen to them, they stop believing [God’s message].
Jong hah ni datta raanjih ah langla, tiitkhaap ah chaat ano tenroon lam ih thaangchaatte asuh liiha. Neng ten ni dangdang tatongka, pootsiit raang ih hanpi rum ano, phate joonnaam saapoot ah thok kah no, neng laan dat ruh ih rumla.
14 [Some people are like] the [soil that had roots of] thorny [weeds] in it. They are people who accept [God’s message], but later on they worry about things, and try to become rich, and enjoy [things that give them] a lot of pleasure. So they do not become [spiritually] mature.
Suhaang rok ni datta raanjih ah langla echaat ete asuh liiha; enoothong sootsaam nyia changteng tenthun, erah dam ih arah hatoh dowa tenroon roidong loong ah ih loopjoh ah, eno neng tiik ah babah uh lasumka loong asuh liiha.
15 But [some people are like] the good soil. They hear [God’s] message and accept it. They [become] good, honest people, and they continue doing things [that please God] [MET].”
Hanoop ni datta raajih ah langla o ih jengkhaap ah thaangchaat ano neng tenni ese lam ih dangdang ih thiin rumha loong asuh liiha, eno hetiik maang dong tiik tiik ih bantongla asuh liiha.
16 “After people light a lamp, they do not cover it with a basket or put it under a bed. Instead, they put it on a lampstand, so that those who enter [their house] can see [things from] its light [MET]. [Similarly, you must tell God’s truth to others so that they can know what I can do for them].
“O ih uh weetook ah took ano khoowaan ih tahopsongka adoleh phaangkhulu nah tatookka. Erah nang ih bah, mina ih weephaak ah chosuh, hethiin thengnah ba thiin ah.
17 [God wants to] make clear all [of his truth] that was not evident previously. [He intends] that all of [the truth] that [he] had not revealed before be told openly {that [his people] openly tell [others] all [of the truth] that [he] has not revealed before}.
“Tumjaat hotthiin et ha loong ah wuungsa nah dong ha, nyia tumjaat hoppat eha loong ah chotup ano weephaak nah dongthiin ah.
18 So listen carefully [to what I tell you], because [God] will enable those who accept [my truth] to [understand even] more. But [God] will cause those who do not accept [my truth] to not understand even [the little] that they think they have [understood].”
Erah raang ih “Mamet chaat han erah naririh ih kap an; tumeah o di tumjih bah uh eje angte loong asuh ebootkot et ah, eno o di amuh ah, erah dowa amasah jeela ih taatthun rumha rah uh ethoon nge et ah.”
19 [One day Jesus’] mother and his [younger] brothers came to see him, but they could not get near him because there was a large crowd [around him in the house].
Jisu nuh nyia heh no loong heh jiinni thok rumta, enoothong miloong hantek ang thoidi tajen chomui rumta.
20 Someone told him, “Your mother and your [younger] brothers are standing outside, wanting to see you.”
Mararah ih Jisu suh baatta, “An nuh nyia an no loong an damdoh chomui suh taakkhuung ni chap rumla.”
21 He replied, “Those who hear God’s message and obey it are [as dear to me] [MET] as my mother and my brothers.”
Jisu ih thoontang suh baatta, “Nga nuh nyia nga no loong bah o ih Rangte tiit chaat ano naririh ih kapte loong ah!”
22 One day Jesus got into a boat with his disciples. He said to them, “Let’s go [around to] the other side of the lake.” So they started to go.
Saasiit Jisu heliphante loong damdi Khoonkhuung ni dungtong ano baat rumta, “Seng therah juungsitum saangko adoh daan kah ih.” Eno karumta.
23 As they were sailing, he fell asleep. A big windstorm struck the lake. Soon the boat was filling with water, and they were in danger.
Neng khoonkhuung ni soon tokdi, Jisu ah emokjup eta. Eno baphuk di juungsitum adi pong pongta, khoonkhuung mong adi juungwaak ah wang eta, eno neng thoontang echoojih ih hoon rumta.
24 Jesus’ disciples woke him up. They said [to him], “Master! Master! We [(inc)] are going to drown!” He got up and rebuked the wind and told the waves to be calm. The wind [immediately] stopped blowing and the waves calmed down. [The lake] became calm.
Heliphante loong ah ih Jisu ah saatsiit karumta, ame jeng rum ano ah: “Nyootte, Nyootte! Seng ah etek nanah angli!” Jisu ah saat ano pong aphaat asuh baat kano; pong aphaat loong ah laan tikmat ruh eta, eno tikpakpak ih semdatta.
25 He said to them, “(I [am disappointed that] you did not trust me [to help you]!/Why did you not trust me [to help you]?)” [RHQ] They were afraid. They were also amazed. They said to each other, “(What kind of man is this?/This man is not like ordinary men!) [RHQ] He [not only commands people, but] when he commands the wind and the water, they also obey him!”
Eno heliphante loong asuh liita, “Sen tuungmaang ah maani ah?” Heliphante loong ah echo damdi paatja ih rumta, eno neng chamchi ni esiit esiit ih chengmui rumta, “Arah mih o angla? Heh ih pong aphaat suh nep baat ano heh jeng chaatchaat ih rumla!”
26 Jesus and his disciples arrived at the region near Gerasa, a [town] which [was on the eastern] side of Lake [Galilee].
Jisu nyia heliphante loong khoonkhuung ah Gerasa juungkhuung ko ih jopkaat rumta, erah langla Galili juungsitum saangko adi angta.
27 [There was] a man [in that region] in whom demons lived. [He was] from the town [of Gerasa]. (OR, [In that area there was] a man [from that town] whom demons controlled.) For a long time he had not worn clothes. He did not live in a house. Instead, he lived in burial caves.
Jisu ah juungkaang adi datkhoomta, eno samthung dowa mih laathih pan ang arah wasiit chomuita. Rekam dowa ih dook erah mih ah nyumuh khatmuh, heh nok ni uh latong thang ih, mangbeng luung ni tong arah angta.
28 Many times [demons] attacked him. He was guarded {[People] tried to guard him} [so that he would not injure others]. Chains were fastened {They fastened chains} on his hands and shackles on his feet, but he would break the chains and shackles. Then he would be sent away by the demons {the demons would send him away} to some desolate area. When Jesus stepped out of the boat onto the shore, the man saw him. He [ran to Jesus] and prostrated himself before him. Then Jesus commanded, “You evil spirit, come out of that man!” But it [did not leave immediately. Instead, it] caused the man to shout very loudly, “Jesus, Son of the great God in heaven, since we [(inc)] have nothing in common, [leave me alone] [RHQ]! I beg you, do not torture me [now]!”
Heh ih Jisu ah tup ano, erongwah ih riinghuungta eno Jisu lathong ni heloong loongdat eta eno riingta, “Jisu Elong Echoong Rangte Sah! An ih ngah ah tumjih et suh chung halang? An lasih johala, nak chamnaang thuk weehang!”
Erah liita ah langla Jisu ih laathih asuh emok sak dowa doksoon uh ih li kano riingta. Lekrookwih laathih rah ih heh ah banjoh ruh eta, erah damdi helak helah ah jaanruh ih kitleh phaatak ni taat sak, ang abah uh thaphui leh laathih rah ih woma ni moongsiit kaat kah eta.
30 [In order to expel the demon more easily], Jesus asked [the demon], “What is your [(sg)] name?” He replied, “My name is Crowd/Mob.” [He said that] because many demons had entered that man.
Jisu ih chengta, “An men o ah?” “Nga men ah ‘Ephoop,’” heh ih ngaakbaatta tumeah heh sak ni laathih loong hantek nopta.
31 [The demons] kept begging [Jesus] that he would not command them to go into the deep place [where God punishes demons]. (Abyssos )
Laathih loong rah ih Jisu suh neng ah hetangmuh haluung nah lakaat raang ih heh lasih joh rumta. (Abyssos )
32 There was a large herd of pigs (grazing/rooting for food) on the hillside. The demons begged Jesus that he allow them to enter the pigs. So he did.
Kaanjang adi wak loong ah hantek tek riimthuk arah angta. Eno laathih loong ah ih Jisu suh neng ah wak sak adoh kaat thuk raangtaan ih Jisu lasih joh rumta, eno emah ju et kaat thuk rumta.
33 The demons left the man and entered the pigs. Then the herd [of pigs] rushed down the steep bank into the lake and drowned.
Neng mih sak dowa doksoon rum ano wak sak adi nop karumta. Wak loong ah kaangphut adi loongtang doruk karum ano juungsitum adi lupdat karumta.
34 When the men who were taking care of the pigs saw what happened, they ran! They told people inside the town and outside the town what had happened.
Wak riimte loong ah ih tumjih ang rumla ih sok rumta, eno soon rum ano erah tiit ah samnuthung rep nyia phek aphaang loong adi tiibaat wanrumta.
35 So people went out to see what had happened. When they came to where Jesus was, they saw that the man from whom Jesus had [expelled] the demons was sitting at the feet of Jesus, [listening to him]. He had clothes on, and his mind was normal again. Then those people became afraid [because they thought that Jesus would destroy more of their property] (OR, [because they realized that he must be very powerful]).
Miloong ah tumjih ang kota ih sokkah rumta, eno Jisu jiinni thokrum adi, laathih heh sak nawa doksoonta wah ah Jisu lathong ni tongta, nyuh akhat pan thungsek ih ban tongta; eno miloong ah loongtang cho rumta.
36 The people who had seen what happened told those [who had just arrived] how [Jesus] had healed the man whom demons were controlling [before].
Erah japtupte loong ah ih mihoh loong suh erah wah deeta tiit ah tumbaat rumta.
37 Then [those people and] many other people [HYP] from the area near Gerasa asked Jesus to leave their area. They were very afraid of [what else Jesus would do to them]. So [Jesus and the disciples] got into the boat to go back across the lake.
Eno erah juungkhuung dowa miloong ah ih Jisu suh haloot nah kaat baat rumta, tumeah neng ah rapne ih cho rumta. Erah thoidi Jisu ah khoonkhuung adi dungtong kata.
38 The man from whom he had [expelled] the demons begged him saying, “[Please], let me go with you!” But [Jesus refused. Instead], he said to him,
Heh sak nawa laathih doksoonta warah ih Jisu lasih jota, “Ngah uh an damdoh roong ra weehang.” Ang abah uh Jisu ih ehoh ni kaat thukta, amet baat ano ah:
39 “[No], go home and tell people how much God has done for you!” Then he sent him away. So the man went away and told people throughout the nearby town how much Jesus had done for him.
Noknah ngaak wang uno Rangte ih tumjih deesiit taho erah baatwan uh.” Eno erah wah ah samnuthung lam ih wang ano, Jisu reeraang tiit loong ah baat wanta.
40 When [Jesus and the disciples] returned [to Capernaum], a crowd of people who had been waiting for him welcomed him.
Jisu juungsitum jooko nawa ngaak wang adi, miloong ih jengseera lam ih heh ah bantho rumta, tumeah neng loong ih heh ah jaatjaat ban sok rumta.
41 Just then a man named Jairus, who was one of the leaders (of the synagogue/of the Jewish meeting place) [there], came near and prostrated himself at Jesus’ feet. He pleaded with Jesus, “Please come to my house [and heal my daughter],
Eno mih wasiit heh men ah Jairas thok taha; heh ah Jehudi rangsoomnok ni mote angta. Heh teeteewah Jisu lathong ni kottong ano heh nok nah kaat raangtaan ih lasih jota,
42 my only daughter, who is about twelve years old, because she is dying!” As Jesus went with him, many people crowded close to Jesus.
tumeah heh sah asih paang nyi minusah, esiit laklak ang arah, thoon tek nanah angta. Eno Jisu ah roong kata adi, miloong ah rongrep nawa thutkhoom rum taha.
43 Then a woman came near. She had been suffering from constant [vaginal] [EUP] bleeding for twelve years, but she could not be healed by anyone {no one could heal her}.
Neng dung ni minuh esiit asih paang nyi heh sih sih arah angta; heh ih jirep heh di tumjih jeeta loong ah Phonwah jiinni thoon thaaja arah angta, heh ah o ih uh lajen deesiitka rah mina angta.
44 She came behind [Jesus] and touched the edge of his robe [in order to be healed]. At once her bleeding stopped.
Heh miloong dung ni ra haano Jisu liko ni heh nyuh kaangba adi taajota, eno heh sih rah erah damdam laan tang ruh eta.
45 Jesus said, “Who touched me?” When everyone said that they had not touched him, Peter said, “Lord, there is a large crowd of people around you [(sg)] and crowding against you, [so any one of them might have touched you]!”
Jisu ih chengta, “O ih taajoh tahang?” Eno mirep ih daan et rumta, eno Pitar ih liita, “Nyootte, miloong ephoop laangma kookchap halu.”
46 But Jesus said, “[I know that] someone [deliberately] touched me, [because] my power has healed someone [who touched me].”
Ang abah uh Jisu ih liita, “O ih ang abah uh ngah taajoh ih tahang, tumeah ngah ih nga sak nawa chaan katta adi jattang.”
47 When the woman realized that she could not prevent [Jesus] (OR, [people]) from knowing that [she was healed], her body began to shake. [She was afraid that because she had disobeyed the law that a woman with such a condition should not touch others, Jesus might scold her for doing that]. She prostrated herself before Jesus. As the other people were listening, she told why she had touched him and how she had been healed immediately.
Minuh rah ih sok ano thunta Jisu ih ejen japjoot ih halang eah, eno emoot cho damdi kah ano Jisu lathong ni kotbon kata. Erah di mirep ngathong ni baatta, heh ih tumjih thoih taajota nyia lakdamdam di mame deeta tiit rah ah.
48 [Jesus] said to her, “(Ma’am/My dear woman), because you believed [PRS] [that I could heal you, I] have healed you. Go [from here, and may you experience God’s] peace [within you].”
Jisu ih heh suh baatta, “Nga sah an tuungmaang nawa ih deelu, Semroongroong ih tong kah uh.”
49 While he was still talking [to her], a man from Jairus’ house came and said to Jairus, “Your daughter has died. So (it is useless that you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]!/why do you bother the teacher any longer [by urging him to go to your house]?) [RHQ]”
Jisu ih erah baat rum adi, saahaap nok nawa kongphaak huite thok taha. Eno Jairas suh baatta, “An sah bah etek ela,” “Nyootte ah nakcham thaam hoom kuh.”
50 But when Jesus heard that, he said to Jairus, “Do not think that there is nothing more that can be done. Just believe that [I can help her. If you(sg) do that], she will live again.”
Enoothong Jisu ih erah japchaat ano Jairas suh baatta, “Nakcho uh; tuungmaang ba eh uh, ese ang ah an sah ah.”
51 When they arrived outside Jairus’ house, Jesus allowed only Peter, John, James, and the girl’s mother and father to go in Jairus’ house with him.
Eno heh nok ni thok rumta adi, Jisu ih o uh nokmong ni tanop thukta, Pitar, Jeems, nyia Joon erah damdi noodek nuh nyi wah ba nop rumta.
52 All the people [there] were crying and beating their chests [to show that they were sad]. But, [knowing that he would cause the girl to live again], he said to them, “Stop crying! She is not dead! She is [just] sleeping [MET]!”
Warep erah di noodek thun huungte nyi mongjoongte luulu angta. Jisu ih baatta, “Nak huung an; noodek ah etek tah eka ejup boh ela!”
53 The people laughed at him, because they knew that [the girl] was dead.
Loongtang ih Heh ah engit et rumta, tumeah neng ih jat et rumta noodek ah jen tek eta eah.
54 But [Jesus] took hold of her hand and called to her, saying, “Child, get up!”
Ang abah uh Jisu ih noodek ah heh lak ni saat hoom ano poonta, “Noodek oh, saat uh!”
55 At once her spirit returned [to her body] and she got up. Jesus immediately said, “Give her something to eat!”
Eno heh tak ah dong heengta, erah damdam noodek laan saat ruh eta, eno Jisu ih phaksat jam koh an ih baat rumta.
56 Her parents were amazed, but Jesus told them not to tell anyone [else yet] what had happened.
Heh nuh nyi wah loong ah rapne ih paatja rumta, enoothong Jisu ih o suh uh labaat thang arah tiit rah ah ih tanghaam rumta.
