Mark 2
1 [Jesus and his disciples] returned to Capernaum [town]. A few days later, because it was {people} heard that Jesus was in [his] house,
Rekam ritdi Jisu Keparnam ni, ngaakwangta, eno heh nok ni eje ih tiibaat mui rumta.
2 many people gathered there. As a result, [after the people filled the house], there was no longer space to stand [in the house or outside] around the doorway. Jesus preached [God’s] message to them.
Erah thoidi miloong ah nokmong ni lathoh lathang ih lomkhoom rumta, kaasakthong ni nep hantek ang rumta. Jisu ih neng suh ruurang ese tiit nyootsoot rum adi
3 Some people came to the house bringing to Jesus a man who was paralyzed. He was carried by four men {Four men carried [him]} [on a sleeping pad].
wabaji ih hiimuung wasiit Jisu reeni thokpi wanrumta.
4 They were not able to bring the man to Jesus because there was a crowd there. So they [went up the steps to the flat roof and] removed [some of] the tiles [above] where Jesus was. Then, after they made a [big] hole in the roof, they lowered [by ropes] the sleeping pad on which the paralyzed man lay. They lowered [it through the hole, down in front of Jesus].
Enoothong mih hantek ang thoidi, Jisu jiinni erah mih ah tajen noppi rumta. Erah thoidi Jisu khothung pun nokkhoh adi loohoom rum ano dam khoh adi hiimuung ah jupthiin rum ano datthiin rumta.
5 After Jesus perceived that the men believed [that he could heal this man], he said to the paralyzed man, “My friend, [I] forgive your sins!”
Jisu ih neng tuungmaang ah tup ano hiimuung ah suh baatta, “Nga sah, an rangdah loong ah biin anaan et halu.”
6 There were some men who taught [the Jewish] laws sitting there. They started thinking like this:
Heh reeni tongta Hootthe nyootte loong ah ih erah chaat rum ano neng thungthung ni thun rumta,
7 “(Who does this man think he is, talking like that/This man shouldn’t talk like that!) [RHQ]? (He is insulting God!/Does he think he is God?) [RHQ] (No person can forgive sins!/Who can forgive sins?) [RHQ] Only God can forgive sins!”
“Heh emah mamah ih naan jengla? Arah ba Rangte kaanju tiit! Rangte heh luulu ih ba rangdah loong ah biin anaan jen hoon ah!”
8 Jesus sensed that they were deliberating like that within themselves. So he said to them, “(You should not question within yourselves [whether I have the right to forgive this man’s sins]!/Why do you question [whether I have the right to forgive this man’s sins]?) [RHQ]
Erah damdam Jisu ih neng tenthun ah jat rum ano li rumta, “Emah sen ih mamet thunhan?
9 It is [not risky] [RHQ] for someone to tell the man who is paralyzed, ‘Your sins are forgiven {[I] forgive your sins},’ [because no one can prove that it has happened]. But no one would say to him, ‘Get up, pick up your stretcher, and then walk away’, [unless he really had the power to heal him, because people can easily see whether it happens or not].
Hiimuung asuh, ‘an rangdah loong ah biin anaan et taho ih baat ah laangpopoh nih ang ah,’ adoleh, ‘an dam ah toonpi uno wang uh ih baat ah elaang nih ang ah?’
10 So I [will do something] in order that you may know that [God] has authorized me, the one who came from heaven, to forgive sins on earth [as well as to heal people].” Then he said to the paralyzed man,
Erah ang abah, ngah ih jatthuk rumha Mina Sah jiinni arah hatoh adi rangdah loong jen biin anaanjih chaan jeela eah.” Eno Jisu ih hiimuung asuh baatta,
11 “To you I say, ‘Get up! Pick up your sleeping pad! And then go home!’”
“Ngah ih baat hala, toonchap uh, dam ah toonpi uno nok nah wang uh!”
12 The man stood up immediately! He picked up the sleeping pad, and then he went away, while all the people [there] were watching. They were all amazed, and they praised God and said, “We have never before seen anything like [what happened] just now!”
Neng loongtang miksok di, erah wah ah toonchapta, eno heh dam ah toonpi ano seek ih toonsoonta. Neng loong ah rapne ih paatja rum ano Rangte rang ah phoong rum ano jeng rumta, “Arah likhiik babah uh tathaak tupke!”
13 Jesus left [Capernaum town again and walked with his disciples] alongside [Galilee] lake. A large crowd came to him. Then he taught them.
Jisu Galili juungsitum kaangko adi we ngaak kata. Miloong ah heh jiinni lomkhoon rumta, eno Jisu ih erah loong asuh phang nyootsoot rumta.
14 As he walked on further, he saw a man named Levi, whose other name was Matthew, and whose father’s name was Alpheus. He was sitting in his office where he collected taxes [for the Roman government]. Jesus said to him, “Come with me [and become my disciple]!” So he got up and went with Jesus.
Erah di lengkhoom adi, sokse seete Leewi Alphias sah, apit ni tong arah japtupta. Eno Jisu ih heh suh baatta, “Nga lilih eho.” Eno Leewi ah toonchap ano heh lilih eta.
15 [Later], Jesus was eating a meal in Levi’s house. Many men who collected taxes and [other] people who were [considered to be] sinning regularly were eating with Jesus and his disciples. [This was not surprising], for there were many people like this who were going [everywhere] with Jesus.
Rekamdi Jisu ih Leewi nok ni phaksat sata. Sokse seete loong nyia rangdah mina hantek Jisu lilih ih rumta, eno neng dung dowa rukho loong ah ih heliphante loong damdi teebun ni cham roong sah rumta.
16 The [men who taught the Jewish] laws [who were there] and who were members of the Pharisee [sect] saw that Jesus was eating with men who collected taxes and [others who were considered] {[whom they considered]} [to be] sinners. So they said to his disciples, “(It is disgusting that he eats with [such disgusting] men as those who collect taxes, and with [other] sinners!/Why is it that he eats with [such disgusting] men as those who collect taxes, and with [other] sinners?)” [RHQ]
Pharisi dung dowa mararah Hootthe nyootte loong ah ih Jisu ah sokse seete nyia rangdah mina loong damdi phaksah arah japtup rum ano, neng ih heliphante loong asuh cheng rumta, “Erah likhiik mina loong damdi mamet phaksah ha?”
17 After Jesus heard [what they were saying], he said to the men who taught the [Jewish] laws, “People who [consider that they] are well do not seek a doctor. On the contrary, it is those who are sick [who seek a doctor] [MET]!” [This he said to indicate that it was those who knew that they had sinned who were coming to him in order that he might help them spiritually]. And he said, “I did not come to invite people [who think that] [IRO] they are righteous [to come to me and turn from their sinful behavior]. On the contrary, I came [from heaven to invite] people who [know that they] are sinners, [in order that they might turn from their sins and come to me].”
Jisu ih japchaat ano ngaak liirumta, “Mina sak eseete ih phonwah tajamka, khoisatte ih ba jamha. Ngah kateng mina poon tara tahang, rangdah mina loong raang ih ra tahang.”
18 The disciples of John [the Baptizer] and some men who belonged to the Pharisee [sect] used to abstain from food [to show that they wanted to please God]. One day, some people came [to Jesus] and asked him [critically], “The disciples of John and the Pharisees (fast/abstain from food) [from time to time], but your disciples do not. [We think they should abstain from food also. What do you say about that] [RHQ]?”
Saasiit Juungtemte Joon liphante loong nyia Pharisi loong ah samurangsoom tong rumta. Mararah mina Jisu jiinni wang rumha no chengrumta, “Juungtemte Joon liphante loong nyia Pharisi loong ah samurangsoom tong ela, enoothong an liphante loong ah tatong rumka nih?”
19 [Jesus wanted them to understand that it was not appropriate for his disciples to show sorrow by abstaining from food while he was still with them]. So he said to them, “When a man is marrying a woman, his friends will certainly not abstain from food while he is still with them, will they [RHQ]? No. During the time that he is with them, they will not abstain from food [because they are happy together].
Jisu ih ngaakbaat rumta, “Kuhoon sa doh wen loong ah samuh toom ngaakwang rum ah nih thunhan? Emah tah angka! Jaalakapte ah neng damdoh ang adoh, neng babah uh emah tareeka.
20 But some day, he will be taken away {his [enemies] will take him away} from them. Then, in those days, they will abstain from food, [because they will be sad].”
Enoothong neng re nawa jaalah kapte ah toonsiit rangwuung ah thok eha, eno ba neng samurangsoom tong rum ah.
21 [Jesus wanted to show that those who desire to live in accordance with his new message should not try to continue to obey the old religious traditions like fasting. So he also said to them], “People do not sew a patch of unshrunken cloth on an old garment [in order to mend a hole]. If they did that, [when they washed the garment, the patch would shrink] and the new [piece of cloth] would tear off more of the old cloth. As a result, the hole would become bigger!
“O eh uh samsong ehak ah nyulep ena ih talep phingka, emah mok et phing abah nyuna chep rah ih nyuh hak ah boot raap hoom ano poolong ih thoon boot hoon ah.
22 [Similarly], people do not put newly [squeezed] grape juice into old skin bags [to store it]. If they did that, that juice will burst the skin bags [because they would not stretch when the wine ferments and expands]. As a result both the wine and the skin bags would be ruined! On the contrary, people must put new wine into new skin bags!” [MET]
Adoleh kham na ah siikhoop tiikook ehak adoh tasakka, emah mok ang abah tiikook ah ephok eah, eno kham nyia tiikook enyi nyi thih ah. Erah nang ih kham na ah tiikook ena nah sak theng.”
23 On one (Sabbath/Jewish day of rest) Jesus was walking through some grain fields with his disciples. As they were walking along [through the grain fields], the disciples were plucking some of the heads of grain. [They rubbed them in their hands to remove the chaff, and were eating the grain. The laws of Moses permitted people to do that if they were hungry].
Jehudi naangtongsa di Jisu nyia heliphante loong ah chamtong ni daankhoom rum adi, heliphante loong ih raanteh ah phang thi phak rumta.
24 [Some of] the Pharisees [saw them doing what they considered to be work. So they] said to him, “Look! (They should not be doing on our (Sabbath day/day of rest) [work] that our laws forbid!/Why are they doing on our (Sabbath day/day of rest) [work] that our laws forbid?) [RHQ]”
Erah thoidi Pharisi loong ah ih Jisu suh liita, “Sok uh, an liphante loong ah ih naangtongsa di erah re rumla rah seng Hootthe di tapunka!”
25 [Jesus wanted to show them that the record in the Scriptures indicated that God permitted people to disobey certain religious laws when they needed food]. So he said to them, “[It is written in the Scriptures] what [our revered ancestor, King] David, did when he needed food, and both he and the men with him were hungry. You have read about that, but ([you do not think about what it implies./why do you not think about what it implies]?) [RHQ]
Jisu ih ngaakbaatta, “Dewid ah ram ih ti ano phaksat suh ramta tok adi tumjih etta? Heh nyia heh joonte loong neng ram ih ti rumta,
26 During the time Abiathar was high priest, David entered the big tent [where people worshipped] God [and asked for some bread. The high priest gave him some] of the loaves of bread. That bread was the bread he had presented to God. It was permitted in one of Moses’ laws that only the priests could eat that bread! But David ate some of it. Then he also gave some of it to the men who were with him. [But God did not consider that was wrong!]”
eno heh Rangte nok ni wang ano Rangte suh kota baanlo ah phaksah wangta. Erah di Abiathar ah romwah phokhoh angta. Seng Hootthe jun ih bah baanlo ah romwah loong ih ba jen phaksah ah—enoothong Dewid ih phaksah ano heh mina loong suh nep kota.”
27 Jesus said to them further, “[God] established (the day of rest/the Sabbath day) [to help] people! He did not create people to [obey rules about] (the Sabbath/the day of rest)!
Jisu ih thoonbaat rumta, “Jehudi naangtongsa ah mina ese raangtaan dongsiitta; mina ah Jehudi naangtongsa raangtaan ih tah angka.
28 And [think about this]: I am the one who came from heaven. So I have the authority [to determine what is right for my disciples to do] (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day)!”
Erah thoidi Mina Sah ah naangtongsa asuh Teesu angla.”
