Matthew 8
1 When Jesus went down from the hillside, large crowds followed him.
Jesus mualtung pan hong tuaksuk ciang in, mihonpi te in zui uh hi.
2 [After he left the crowds], a man who had [the skin disease called] leprosy unexpectedly came and knelt before him. He said [to Jesus], “Lord/Sir, [please heal me, because I know] you are able to heal me if you are willing to.”
Tasiaciang miphak khat a kung ah hongpai in, a biak zawkciang, Topa, uk hipo le te, hong thiangsak thei ni hi, ci hi.
3 Then Jesus, [disregarding the religious law that forbade people to come close to lepers], stretched out his hand and touched the man. He said [to him], “I am willing to [heal you], and I heal you [now]!” Immediately the man was healed from his leprosy {he was no longer a leper}.
Jesus in a khut zan in, tham a, Ka uk hi, thiang tan, ci hi.
4 Then Jesus said to him, “Go and show yourself to a [nearby] priest [so that he can examine you and verify that you no longer have leprosy]. [Then], after he tells [the local people], they will know [that you no longer have leprosy], [and you will be able to associate with them again]. Make sure that [now] you do not report [about my healing you] to anyone [other than the priest]. Then go [to the Temple in Jerusalem and give the priest] the offering that Moses commanded [that people who have been healed from leprosy should offer] as a sacrifice to God.”
Jesus in tua pa tung ah, Ngai in, kuama son heak in; ahihang thiampipa kung ah pai in kilak in, midang atu tetti hi tu in, Moses thupiakna bang in, biakpiakna pia in, ci hi.
5 When Jesus went to Capernaum [city], a [Roman] officer who commanded 100 soldiers came to him. He begged Jesus [to help him].
Jesus Capernaum khua sung a tum ciang in, zakhat uk ngalkapmang khat a kung ah hongpai in, hesuak ngen hi,
6 He said [to him], “Sir, my servant is lying [in bed] at home and is paralyzed, and he has severe pain.”
Topa awng, ka naseampa langngaw nat na in inn ah lum a, ngim mama hi, ci hi.
7 Jesus said [to him], “I will go [to your house] and heal him.”
Jesus in ama kung ah, Hongpai in damsak tu khi hi, ci hi.
8 But the officer said [to him], “Lord/Sir, [do not bother to go. I am a non-Jew], so I am not worthy for you, [a Jew], to come into my house [MTY] [and associate with me]. Instead, [just] command [that] my servant [be healed], and he will be healed.
Tua ngalkap mangpa in, Topa, nangma vateak ka inn sung dong nong pai tu ki phu ngawl khi hi: ahizong kamkhat bek son po le te, ka naseampa dam lel tu hi.
9 I [believe this] because, as for me, I am a man under the authority of others, and I also have soldiers under my authority. When I say to one of them ‘Go!’ he goes. When I say to another ‘Come!’ he comes. When I say to my slave, ‘Do this!’ he does it. [And I believe that you speak with a similar kind of authority].”
Banghangziam cile keima sia khutnuai a om ka hi a, ka khutnuai ah zong ngalkap te nei khi hi; khatpo pai in, ka cile pai a, a dang khat sia hongpai tan, ka cile hongpai hi; ciang ka naseam khat, hisia seam in ka cile seam hi, ci in zo kik hi.
10 When Jesus heard this, he marveled. He said to the crowd that was walking with him, “Listen to this: I have never before found anyone who has as firm a faith [in me as this non-Jewish man has]. Not even in Israel, [where I would expect people to believe in me], have I found anyone who has the kind of faith in me that he has!
Jesus in hi thu a zak ciang, lamdangsa in, a nungzui te kung ah, A tatak in ka ci ciang, Israel te sung nangawn ah hibangza a lian upna mu ngeingawl lai khi hi.
11 I tell you truly that many [other non-Jewish people] who [will believe in me like this Roman officer] will come from [distant countries, including] those [far] to the east and far to the west [SYN], and they will sit down to eat with [MTY] Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in heaven, where God rules.
Kei kong ci na ah, nisuana le nitumna pan in mihing tam mama hongpai tu a, vantung kumpingam sung ah Abraham, Isaac le Jacob te taw tokhawm tek tu hi.
12 But [the Jews] [IDM] [who should have allowed] God to rule over them will be sent to [hell, where there is] total darkness. And as a result, they will weep [because of their suffering] and will grind their teeth [because they will have severe pain] [MTY].” (questioned)
Ahihang kumpingam sung ah omte sia kaana le ha ngoaina om na mun, doipua khuazing sung ah khia tu hi.
13 Then Jesus said to the officer, “Go [home]. What you believed [would happen], [that I would heal your servant from a distance], will happen.” [Then the officer went home and found out that] his servant became well at the exact time [that Jesus told him that he would heal him].
Jesus in ngalkap mangpa kung ah, Cia kik tan, na upna bang in kivawtsak zo tu hi, ci hi. Ngalkap mangpa naseampa tua hun laitak lian in dam hi.
14 When Jesus [and some of his disciples] went to the home of Peter, Jesus saw Peter’s mother-in-law. She was lying on a bed because she had a fever.
Jesus Peter innsung a tum laitak in, Peter zi i nu sia cisa natna taw dam ngawl in mu hi.
15 He touched her hand, and as a result, [immediately] she no longer had a fever [PRS]. Then she got up and served them [some food].
Jesus in a khut pan tham in, a cisa dam hi: taciang tho in, amate leangna do hi.
16 That evening [when] ([the Sabbath/the Jewish rest day]) [ended and restrictions about traveling ended], many people who were controlled by demons {whom demons controlled} [and people who were sick] [MTY] [were] brought to Jesus. He caused the demons to leave just by speaking to them, and he healed all the people who were sick.
Nitak sang hong thet ciang in, doaivei tam mama hong paipui uh hi: Jesus in a kammal taw thaa niin te hawlkhia in, cina theampo damsak siat hi:
17 By doing this he fulfilled the words that had been said by the prophet Isaiah {that the prophet Isaiah had said} [about the Messiah]: “He healed people who had sicknesses and he cured them of their diseases.” [DOU]
Hi thu sia, Ama vateak ma in i thaneamna le i natna theampo hong laksak siat hi, ci in kamsang Isaiah sonkhol thu a tangtun na a hihi.
18 Jesus saw the crowd around him, but [he needed to rest]. So he told [his disciples to take him by boat] to the other side [of the lake].
Jesus in a kim a om mihon tampi te a mu ciang in, ngalkhat ah pai tu in thupia hi.
19 [As they were walking toward the boat], a man who taught the [Jewish] laws came to him and said, “Teacher, I will go with you wherever you go.”
Thukhamhil khat a kung ah hongpai a, Syapa awng, na pai na po ah kong zui tu hi, ci hi.
20 [In order that the man might know what he could expect if he went with him], Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes [in the ground in which to live], and birds have nests, but [even though I] am the one who came from heaven, I do not have a home where I can sleep [MTY].”
Jesus in, Ngia te in kua nei a, tungleang vacimte in zong bu nei uh hi; ahihang mihing Tapa in a lu ngak natu nangawn zong nei ngawl hi, ci hi.
21 Another man who was one of Jesus’ disciples said to him, “Sir/Lord, permit me first to go [home. After] my father [dies I will] bury him, [and then I will come with you].”
A nungzui dang khat in, Topa awng, pai in ka pa hong vuisak masa tan, ci hi.
22 But Jesus said to him, “Come with me [now]. [God considers that people who do not have eternal life are] dead [MET]. Let those people [do the work of] burying people who die.”
Ahihang Jesus in, Hong zui tan, mithi te in amate i mithi te vui tahen, ci hi.
23 Then Jesus got into the boat. The disciples also got [in, and] they [started sailing close to the shoreline around Lake Galilee].
Jesus ngunkuang sung a thet ciang in, a nungzui te in zui hi.
24 Suddenly strong winds blew on the lake, and very high waves were splashing into the boat and filling it. But Jesus was sleeping.
Taciang en vun, tuipi sung ah huipi suangval hong tho ngawp a, ngunkuang sia tui in khum hi: ahihang Jesus sia mu hi.
25 They went and woke him up, and said [to him], “Sir/Lord, rescue [us!] We are about to drown!”
A nungzui te hongpai in phong a, Topa awng, hong hun tan: bocip khu hi, ci hi.
26 He said [to them], “(You should not be terrified!/Why are you terrified?) [RHQ] I [am disappointed that in spite of all you have seen me do], (you do not believe very much [that I can rescue you./] you not believe [that I can rescue you]?) [RHQ]” Then he got up and rebuked the wind and told the waves to calm down. And [the wind stopped blowing and the lake] became calm.
Jesus in, Banghang in lau nu ziam, upna no te awng? ci hi. Tua zawkciang Jesus tho in, hui le tuipi thupia hi; taciang thim khipkhep hi.
27 [As a result], they were amazed, and they said [to one another], “This man is certainly an [extraordinary] person [RHQ]! [All things are under his control!] Even the winds and the waves obey him [PRS]!”
Lamdang sa mama uh a, hi sia pa sia bangbang mihing hi tu ziam, hui le tuipi te nangawn in a thu ngai hi, ci hi.
28 When they came to the [east] side [of the lake], they arrived in the region where the Gadarenes [lived]. [Jesus got out of the boat and began walking on the road. Then] two men who were controlled by demons {whom demons controlled} came out of the burial caves [where they were living]. Because they were extremely violent [and attacked people], no one dared to travel on the road [near where they were living].
Jesus ngalkhat Gargesenes ngam a thet ciang in, than pan hong pusuak doai vei thin-am ni taw ki si hi, amate sia ngilo mama ahikom, tua lampi sia kuama in tawn ngam ngawl hi.
29 Suddenly they shouted [to Jesus], “You are the Son of God! [Because] you have nothing in common with us [IDM, RHQ], [leave us alone] Have you come here [RHQ] to torture us before the time [MTY] [God has appointed to punish us]?”
Amate au in, Jesus, nang Pathian Tapa, ko kung ah bang kin nei ni ziam? A hun cin ma ko hong vawtsia tu in hongpai ni ziam? ci uh hi.
30 There was a large herd of pigs not far away, digging for food with their noses.
Tuak sung pan a khuala hiat na mun ah an zong tu a ki tha vokhon te om hi.
31 So the demons begged Jesus, saying, “You are going to cast us out of the men, so send us into the herd of pigs!”
Doai te in Jesus thum uh a, nong hawlkhia tu a hile, zesung vokhon sung ah hong tumsak tan, ci hi.
32 Jesus said [to them], “[If that is what you want], go!” So the demons left [the men] and entered the pigs. Suddenly the whole herd [of pigs] rushed down the steep bank into the lake and drowned.
Jesus in, Pai vun, ci hi. Amate pusuak in vokhon te sung ah tum uh hi: taciang, en vun, vok te a vekpi in tai a, tuipi sung ah kinuntaw suk in, tuisung ah thi siat hi.
33 The men who were tending the pigs [became afraid and] ran into the town and reported everything [that had happened], including what had happened to the two men who had been controlled by demons {whom demons had controlled}.
Vokcing te khuapi sung ah tai in, doai vei te ni tung ah thupiang teng son uh hi.
34 Then [it seemed as if] all [the people] [HYP] [who lived in] that town [MTY] went to meet Jesus. When they saw him [and the two men who had been controlled by the demons], they begged Jesus to leave their region [because they thought that he would destroy more things than just the pigs] (OR, [because they realized he must be very powerful]).
Tua ahikom khuapi sung mihing bup Jesus taw kisi tu in hongpai tek uh a: a mu uh ciang amate ngamngi pan pusuak tu in ngen uh hi.
