Mark 11
1 When they came near to Jerusalem, they came to Bethphage and Bethany [villages] near Olive [Tree] Hill. Then Jesus [summoned] two of his disciples.
Amate Jerusalem hong nai ciang, Olive mual a om Bethphage le Bethany a thet uh ciang in, Jesus in nungzui te ni sawl in,
2 He said to them, “Go to that village just ahead of you. As soon as you enter it, you will see a donkey that no one has ever ridden, that has been tied {people have tied} up. Untie it, and then bring it [to me].
Na mai uh ah pai tavun a: khuasung na tum uh pociang kuama to ngei ngawl lai laano a ki khitsa in mu tu nu hi; a khau sut vun a, ka kung ah paipui tavun.
3 If anyone says to you, ‘Why are you doing that?’, say, [‘Jesus], our Lord, needs [to use] it. He will send it back here [with someone] as soon as [he no longer needs it].’”
Khat po in banghang hibang ngamta nu ziam? hong ci le, Topa in tulmaw hi; ci vun, tasia pociang hong paisak pai tu hi, ci hi.
4 So [the two disciples] went and they found the young donkey. It was tied close to the door [of a house], which was beside the street. Then they untied it.
Amate pai uh a, lampi kisiktua na mun kongkha hui a puasang ah laano a ki khit mu uh hi; taciang sut uh hi.
5 Some of the [people who were there] said to them, “Why are you untying the donkey?”
Tua mun ah a ding te in, banghang in laano sut nu ziam? ci uh hi.
6 They told them what Jesus had said. So the people permitted them [to take the donkey].
A nungzui te in Jesus thupiak sa bang in a son uh ciang: amate in paisak uh hi.
7 They brought the donkey to Jesus. [The disciples] put some of their clothes on it [in order to make something for him to sit on].
Amate in laano sia Jesus kung ah hong paipui uh a, a tung ah puan te pha hi; taciang Jesus a tung ah to hi.
8 Many people spread their cloaks on the road [to honor him as a king]. Others, [in order to honor him], spread along the road branches that they cut from [palm trees] in the fields [beside the road].
Mi tampi te in lampi ah a puan uh te pha uh a: midang te in zong thingbak te sat in lampi tung ah pha uh hi.
9 The people who were going in front of him and behind him were all shouting [things like], “Praise God!” “May God bless this one who comes (with his authority/as his representative) [MTY].”
A mai ah a pai te le a nung pan a zuite in, Hosanna; Topa min taw hongpai pa thuphatoai a hihi:
10 “May you be blessed {May [God] bless you} when you rule [like] our ancestor [King] David ruled!” “Praise God who is in the highest heaven!”
I pa David kumpingam in thupha nga tahen, Topa min taw hongpaipa: a sangbelna ah Hosanna, ci in au uh hi.
11 He entered Jerusalem [with them], and then he went into the Temple [courtyard]. After he looked around at everything [there], he left [the city] because it was already late [in the afternoon]. He returned to Bethany with the twelve [disciples and slept there].
Taciang Jerusalem biakinn sung ah tum uh a: na theampo a et zawk, nitaksang ciang in, nungzui sawmleni te taw Bethany khua ah pai tek uh hi.
12 The next day, as Jesus and his disciples were leaving Bethany, Jesus was hungry.
A zingciang Bethany khua pan amate a paikik uh ciang in, Jesus a ngilkial hi:
13 He saw from a distance a fig tree with all its leaves, so he went [to it] to see if he could find any [figs] on it. But when he came to it, he found only leaves on it. This was because it was not yet time when [normal fig trees have ripe] figs.
A ngalkhat pan in a te puitung mama theikung khat mu a, a nga a om tha le, ci in pai hi: a bul a thet ciang in, a te simngawl bangma mu ngawl hi; banghangziam cile a nga hun hi ngawl hi.
14 [But to illustrate how God would punish the nation of Israel, ] he said to the tree, “No one shall ever eat from you again [because you will no longer bear figs].” The disciples heard what he said. (aiōn g165)
Jesus in tua theikung sia, Kuama in bangmahun in na nga ne nawn heak tahen, ci hi. A nungzui te in zong za uh hi. (aiōn g165)
15 Jesus and his disciples went [back] to Jerusalem. He entered the Temple [courtyard. He saw people] who were selling and buying [animals for sacrifices. They were spoiling the place of worship]. He chased those people [from the Temple courtyard.] He also overturned the tables of those who were giving Temple tax money in exchange for Roman coins. He overturned the seats of the men who were selling doves [for sacrifices],
Amate Jerusalem ah hongpai uh a: Jesus biakinn sung ah tum hi, biakinn sung ah vanzuak te le a lei te nawtkeak in, sum theak te sabuai te le vakhu zuak te in tokhum te lawnthal siat hi;
16 and he would not allow anyone who was carrying anything [to sell] to go through the Temple [area].
Biakinn hui pan zong kuama vanpua kawm in tawnsak nawn ngawl hi.
17 Then as he taught those people, he said to them, “It is written {[One of the prophets] wrote} [in the Scriptures that God said], ‘[I want] my house to be called {[people] to call my house} a house where [people from] all nations may pray’, but you bandits have made it [like] a cave where you can hide! ([You know that!/Do you not know that]?) [RHQ]”
Jesus in, Ka inn sia minam theampo in thungetna inn, ci tu uh hi, ci atkhol hi ngawl ziam? ahihang note in nguta te kua in na vawt uh hi, ci hil hi.
18 The chief priests and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws [later] heard [about what he had done]. So they planned how they might kill him, [but they knew that it would be difficult], because they realized that the crowd was amazed at what he was teaching and they feared [that the people would soon decide that Jesus had more authority over the Temple than they did] (OR, [feared what the people would do if they tried to arrest Jesus]).
Tua thu thukhamhil te le thiampi lian te in a zak uh ciang in, Jesus bangbang in that thei tu, ci in zong tek uh hi: banghang in amate in Jesus lau ziam cile, mi theampo in a hilna lamdang asak uh hang a hihi.
19 That evening, [Jesus and his disciples] left the city [and again slept in Bethany].
Nitak sang ciang in Jesus khuapi sung pan in pusuak hi.
20 [The next] morning, while they were going along [the road toward Jerusalem, they saw that the fig tree that Jesus had cursed] had withered completely.
A zingsang ciang lampi ah a pai uh kawm in, amate in theikung sia a sungpan kipan a ko siat mu hi.
21 Peter remembered [what Jesus had said to the fig tree] and he exclaimed to Jesus, “Teacher, look! The fig tree that you cursed has withered!”
Peter in phawkkik a, Jesus kung ah, Syapa awng, en in, na hamsiat theikung sia ko siat zo hi, ci hi.
22 Jesus replied, “[You should not be surprised that God did what I asked]! You must trust that God [will do whatever you ask him to do]!
Taciang Jesus in amate tung ah, Pathian sung ah upna nei vun.
23 [Also] note this: If anyone says to this hill, ‘Be raised up {Rise up} and then be thrown {throw yourself} into the lake!’ and if he does not doubt [that what he asks for will happen], that is, if he believes that what he asks for will happen, [God] will do it for him.
Banghangziam cile, a mantak in kong ci hi, a kuamapo in, a thinsung ah uplakna nei ngawl in, a pau bang in a vekpi piang tu hi; ci upna taw hi mual tung ah, ki khin in a, tuipi sung ah ki khiasuk in; a ci le a ci bang in piang tu hi.
24 So I tell you, whenever you ask [God] for something when you pray, believe that you will receive it, and, [if you do, God] will do it [for you].
Tua ahikom kong ci hi, thu na nget uh ciang in, na dei uh theampo sia nga khi hi, ci na um uh le na nga tu uh hi.
25 Now, I [tell you this also]: Whenever you are praying, if you have a grudge against people [because they have harmed you], forgive them, in order that your Father in heaven will [likewise] forgive your sins.”
Thu na nget tu uh ciang in, khatpo i tung ah diksak ngawl na na nei uh le, maisak vun: tabang in vantung a om na Pa uh zong in na vawtkhial uh te hong maisak tu hi.
Ahihang note in ngual khialna te na maisak bua uh le, vantung a om na Pa uh in note khial na zong hong maisak ngawl tu hi, ci hi.
27 Jesus and his disciples arrived in the Temple [courtyard] in Jerusalem again. While Jesus was walking [there, a group consisting of] chief priests, [some] men who taught the [Jewish] laws, and elders came to him and they said to him,
Amate Jerusalem ah hongpaikik uh a: biakinn sung ah Jesus a pai laitak in, thiampi lian te, thukhamhil te le upa te a kung ah hongpai uh a,
28 “By what authority are you doing these things? Who authorized you to do things [like those you did here yesterday]?”
Ama tung ah, bang thuneina taw hibang nate vawt ni ziam? hibang nate vawt tu in a kua in hibang thuneina hong pia ziam? ci uh hi.
29 Jesus said to them, “I will ask you one question. If you answer me, I will tell you who authorized me to do those things.
Tasiaciang in Jesus in amate tung ah, Kei zong thu khat hong dong tu khi hi, hong zo tavun, hibang te bang thuneina taw vawt khi ziam, ci kong son tu hi, ci zo hi.
30 Did God [MTY] or people [authorize] John to baptize [those who came to him]?”
John i tuiphumna a piak sia, vantung pan ziam, mihing tung pan ziam? hong zo tavun, ci hi.
31 They debated among themselves [as to what they should answer]. They [said to each other], “If we say that it was God [who authorized] him, he will say to us, ‘Therefore, (you should have believed what John said!/why did you not believe what John said?) [RHQ]’
Amate kikum uh a, vantung pan ci leang; ama in banghang ama um ngawl nu ziam? hong ci tu hi.
32 On the other hand, if we say that it was people [who authorized John, then what will happen to us]?” They were afraid [to say that about where John got his authority, because they knew that] the people [would be very angry with them. They knew that] all the people truly believed that John was a prophet [whom God had sent].
Ahihang, mihing tung pan hi, ci tu hile; amate in mipi te lau hi: banghangziam cile mi theampo in John sia kamsang tatak hi, ci ngaisun tek uh hi.
33 So they answered Jesus, “We do not know [where John got his authority].” Then Jesus said to them, “[Because you did not answer my question, I] will not tell you who authorized me to do those things [here yesterday].”
Taciang amate in Jesus kung ah, hong son thei ngawl khu hi, ci uh hi. Tasiaciang Jesus in amate tung ah, Hibang te bang thuneina taw vawt khi ziam ci keizong kong son bua tu hi, ci in zo hi.
