Luke 9
1 Then calling the Twelve together He conferred on them power and authority over all the demons and to cure diseases;
Hnukbang hlainit te a hueh tih rhaithae te boeih khulae tih tlohtat hoeih sak ham amih taengah thaomnah neh saithainah a paek.
2 and sent them out to proclaim the Kingdom of God and to cure the sick.
Te phoeiah Pathen ram hoe ham neh tattloel hoeih sak ham a tueih.
3 And He commanded them, "Take nothing for your journey; neither stick nor bag nor bread nor money; and do not have an extra under garment.
Te vaengah amih te, “Longpueng ham cunghol, sungsa, vaidam neh tangka khaw khuen uh boeh. Angki khaw yung nit khuen boeh.
4 Whatever house you enter, make that your home, and from it start afresh.
Im te na kun thil coeng atah, na naeh uh to vetih te lamlohna nong uh mako.
5 Wherever they refuse to receive you, as you leave that town shake off the very dust from your feet as a protest against them."
Tedae nangmih aka doe pawt te tah kho lamkah na nong vaengah na kho dongah tangdik te, amih aka laipai thil ham khoek pa uh,” a ti nah.
6 So they departed and visited village after village, spreading the Good News and performing cures everywhere.
Te dongah aka cet rhoek loh kho tom a hil uh tih olthangthen a thui phoeiah khotomrhali ah tloh a hoeih sakuh.
7 Now Herod the Tetrarch heard of all that was going on; and he was bewildered because of its being said by some that John had come back to life,
Aka om hno boeih te khoboei Herod loh a yaak vaengah sut hit. A ngen loh, “Johan te duek lamkah thoo coeng.
8 by others that Elijah had appeared, and by others that some one of the ancient Prophets had come back to life.
A ngen bal loh, “Elijah phoe coeng te, “a tloe rhoek long tah, “Khosuen kah tonghma khat khat ni aka thoo coeng te,” a ti uh.
9 And Herod said, "John I have beheaded; but who is this, of whom I hear such reports?" And he sought for an opportunity of seeing Jesus.
Tedae Herod loh, “Johan te ka rhaih coeng dae ulae aka om tih a thang vawk ka yaak he,” a ti tih amah hmuh ham a toem.
10 The Apostles, on their return, related to Jesus all they had done. Then He took them and withdrew to a quiet retreat, to a town called Bethsaida.
Caeltueih rhoek a bal uh vaengah amamih kah a saii uh boeih te Jesuh taengah a thui uh. Te phoeiah amih te a khuen tih Bethsaida a ti uh kho la amah bueng vil vi uh.
11 But the immense crowd, aware of this, followed Him; and receiving them kindly He proceeded to speak to them of the Kingdom of God, and those who needed to be restored to health, He cured.
Tedae anih aka vai hlangping loh a ming coeng dongah, amih te a doe tih Pathen ram kawng te amih ham a thui pah. Te vaengah hoeihnah aka ngoe rhoek khaw a hoeih sak.
12 Now when the day began to decline, the Twelve came to Him and said, "Send the people away, that they may go to the villages and farms round about and find lodging and a supply of food; because here we are in an uninhabited district."
Khohnin loh a khum thuk vaengah hlainit rhoek loh amah te a paan tih, “Hlangping he tueih pawn sih, te daengah ni a taengvai kah kho neh lohma la cet vetih a pah nah ham neh buham khaw a dang uh eh. Khosoek hmuen ah ni ng'om uh he,” a ti uh.
13 "You yourselves," He said, "must give them food." "We have nothing," they replied, "but five loaves and a couple of fish, unless indeed we were to go and buy provisions for all this host of people."
Tedae hnukbang rhoek te, “Amih kah a caak ham te nangmih loh pae uh,” a ti nah. Te vaengah amih loh, “He Pilnam pum ham caak aka lai la ka cet uh pawt koinih, vaidam panga neh nga panit lakah aka yet te kaimih taengah om voel pawh,” a ti uh.
14 (For there were about 5,000 adult men.) But He said to His disciples, "Make them sit down in parties of about fifty each."
Te vaengah hlang thawngnga tluk om uh. Tedae a hnukbang rhoek te, “Amih te a boel pakhat ah hlang sawmnga tluk rhip ngol sak,” a ti nah.
15 They did so, making them all, without exception, sit down.
Te dongah a saii uh van tih boeih a ngol sakuh.
16 Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to Heaven He blessed them and broke them into portions which He gave to the disciples to distribute to the people.
Te phoeiah vaidam panga neh nga panit te a loh. Vaan la oeloe tih a uem phoeiah a aeh tih hlangping te patoeng paek hamla hnukbang rhoek taengah a paek.
17 So they ate and were fully satisfied, all of them; and what they had remaining over was gathered up, twelve baskets of fragments.
A caak uh tih boeih a hah uh phoeiah a coih a nueipil te voh hlainit la a phueih uh.
18 One day when He was praying by Himself the disciples were present; and He asked them, "Who do the people say that I am?"
A tue loh a pha vaengah thangthui neh amah bueng om tih hnukbang rhoek loh anih te a puei uh. Te vaengah amih te a dawt tih, “Hlangping loh kai he ulae a ti uh?” a ti nah.
19 "John the Baptist," they replied; "but others say Elijah; and others that some one of the ancient Prophets has come back to life."
A doo uh tih, “Hlangvang loh tuinuem Johan, Elijah, hlangvang bal loh khosuen kah tonghma pakhat khat koep thoo,’ a ti uh,” a ti nah.
20 "But you," He asked, "who do you say that I am?" "God's Anointed One," replied Peter.
Te phoeiah amamih te, “Nangmih long tah kai he ulae na ti uh?,” a ti nah. Te vaengah Peter loh a doo tih, “Pathen kah Khrih ni,” a ti nah.
21 And Jesus strictly forbad them to tell this to any one;
Tedae amih te a ho tih te te thui pawt ham a uen.
22 and He said, "The Son of Man must suffer much cruelty, be rejected by the Elders and High Priests and Scribes, and be put to death, and on the third day be raised to life again."
Hlang Capa tah a muep a patang ham a kuek. Te dongah patong rhoek, khosoihham rhoek, neh cadaek rhoek loh a hnawt uh vetih a ngawn uh ni. Tedae a thum hnin ah thoo ni,” a ti nah.
23 And He said to all, "If any one is desirous of following me, let him ignore self and take up his cross day by day, and so be my follower.
Amih boeih te khaw, “Khat khat long ni ka hnukah lo ham a ngaih atah, amah te hnawt uh saeh lamtah, a thinglam a koh doela hnin takuem ah kai m'vai van saeh.
24 For whoever desires to save his life shall lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake shall save it.
A hinglu te khang ham aka ngaih te tah a hingnah poci ni. Tedae kai kongah hinglu aka poci long tah a hingnah a khang ni.
25 Why, what benefit is it to a man to have gained the whole world, but to have lost or forfeited his own self.
Hlang loh Diklai pum a dang dae amah poci uh tih a sungdaeh atah balae a hoeikhang eh?
26 For whoever shall have been ashamed of me and my teachings, of him the Son of Man will be ashamed when He comes in His own and the Father's glory and in that of the holy angels.
Kai neh ka ol he aka yah puei te tah capa kah, pa kah, a cim puencawn rhoek kah thangpomnah neh ha pawk vaengah hlang capa loh anih te a yah puei ni.
27 I tell you truly that there are some of those who stand here who will certainly not taste death till they have seen the Kingdom of God."
Tedae nangmih taengah rhep kan thui. Hekah aka pai khuiah hlangvang om. Amih loh Pathen kah ram he a ming uh hlan atah dueknah te ten uh mueh mahpawh,” a ti nah.
28 It was about eight days after this that Jesus, taking with Him Peter, John, and James, went up the mountain to pray.
He kah olka a poeng phoeikah hnin rhet tluk ah, Peter, Johan neh James te a khuen tih tlang la thangthui ham a caeh puei.
29 And while He was praying the appearance of His face underwent a change, and His clothing became white and radiant.
A thangthui vaengah a maelhmai kah a mueimae loh a tloe la om tih a pueinak te a bok la khooi.
30 And suddenly there were two men conversing with Him, who were Moses and Elijah.
Te vaengah hlang panit loh anih te tarha a voek rhoi. Amih rhoi tah Moses neh Elijah ni.
31 They came in glory, and kept speaking about His death, which He was so soon to undergo in Jerusalem.
Amih rhoi tah thangpomnah neh phoe rhoi tih a Sunglatnah te a thui rhoi. Te te Jerusalem ah soep sak ham om coeng.
32 Now Peter and the others were weighed down with sleep; but, keeping themselves awake all through, they saw His glory, and the two men standing with Him.
Tedae Peter neh a taengkah rhoi tah a ih neh bakba a hap uh tih om uh. A haenghang uh vaengah a thangpomnah te a hmuh uh tih a taengah hlang panit ana pai pah.
33 And when they were preparing to depart from Him, Peter said to Jesus, "Rabbi, we are thankful to you that we are here. Let us put up three tents--one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah." He did not know what he was saying.
Amih rhoi te Jesuh taeng lamloh a khoe uh phoeiah Peter loh Jesuh te, “Boeipa, he ah he mamih ng'om uh ham then, dap pathum ah tuk uh sih, namah ham pakhat, Moses ham pakhat, Elijah ham pakhat saeh,” a ti nah tih a thui nawn te khaw ming pawh.
34 But while he was thus speaking, there came a cloud which spread over them; and they were awe-struck when they had entered into the cloud.
Te te a a thui vaengah muei yal tih amih te a dah. Te dongah muei khuila a kun uh te khaw a rhih uh.
35 Then there came a voice from within the cloud: "This is My Son, My Chosen One: listen to Him."
Muei khui lamkah ol ha thoeng tih, “Anih tah ka tuek ka ca ni, a ol hnatun pa uh,” a ti.
36 After this voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. They kept it to themselves, and said not a word to any one at that time about what they had seen.
Ol a thui bawt ah Jesuh tah amah bueng te tueng. Amih khaw kam a khuem uh tih te khohnin ah a hmuh uh te puen uh pawh.
37 On the following day, when they were come down from the mountain, a great crowd came to meet Him;
Hnin at om tih a vuen ah amih te tlang lamloh suntla uh. Te vaengah Jesuh te hlangping loh muep a doe.
38 and a man from the crowd called out, "Rabbi, I beg you to pity my son, for he is my only child.
Te vaengah hlang pakhat te hlangping khui lamloh tarha pang tih, “Saya, kai ham tah khueh duen la a om dongah, ka capa te nan paelki ham kam bih.
39 At times a spirit seizes him and he suddenly cries out. It convulses him, and makes him foam at the mouth, and does not leave him till it has well-nigh covered him with bruises.
Anih te mueihla loh a tuuk tarha vaengah tah buengrhuet pang tih, tolhom neh suvaih. Anih te mat a ngawn a thaeh daengah a mael tak.
40 I entreated your disciples to expel the spirit, but they could not."
Mueihla aka haek la na hnukbang rhoek te ka hloep dae coeng thai pawh,” a ti nah.
41 "O unbelieving and perverse generation!" replied Jesus; "how long shall I be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here to me."
Te dongah Jesuh loh a doo tih, “Aka tangnahmueh neh pamdah cadil aw, nangmih taengah mevaeng hil nim ka om vetih nangmih te ka yaknaem ve? Na capa te he la han thak,” a ti nah.
42 Now while the youth was coming, the spirit dashed him to the ground and cruelly convulsed him. But Jesus rebuked the foul spirit, and cured the youth and gave him back to his father.
A taengla ham paan vaengah camoe te rhaithae loh a voeih dongah thuen pueng. Tedae Jesuh loh mueihla thae te a ho daengah, camoe te hoeih tih a napa taengla a mael.
43 And all were awe-struck at the mighty power of God. And while every one was expressing wonder at all that He was doing, He said to his disciples,
Te dongah Pathen kah a lennah soah boeih let uh tih, a hnukbang rhoek taengkah a thui neh a saii boeih soah boeih a ngaihmang uh.
44 "As for you, store these my sayings in your memory; for, before long, the Son of Man will be betrayed into the hands of men."
Te vaengah, “He kah ol he na hna ah namamih loh dueh uh. Hlang capa tah hlang kut ah voeih ham cai coeng,” a ti nah.
45 But they did not understand His meaning: it was veiled from them that they might not perceive it, and they were afraid to ask Him about it.
Tedae he olthui he a mangvawt uh. Te te a hmuhming pawt ham ni amih ham a phah la om coeng. Te dongah he olthui he amah dawt ham a rhih uh.
46 Now there arose a dispute among them, which of them was to be the greatest.
Tedae amamih khuiah ulae tanglue la aka om eh tila amamih khuiah poeknah a kun pah.
47 And Jesus, knowing the reasoning that was in their hearts, took a young child and made him stand by His side
Jesuh loh amih thinko poeknah te a hmuh dongah camoe a loh tih amah taengah a pai sak.
48 and said to them, "Whoever for my sake receives this little child, receives me; and whoever receives me, receives Him who sent me. For the lowliest among you all--he is the greatest."
Te vaengah, “He camoe he ka ming neh aka doe long tah kai ni n'doe. Ka tueih aka doe long tah kai ni n'doe. Nangmih boeih lakli ah a diknoi la kho aka sa tah tanglue la om ni,” a ti nah.
49 "Rabbi," replied John, "we have seen a man making use of your name to expel demons; and we forbad him, because he does not come with us."
Johan loh a doo tih, “Boeipa, nang ming neh rhaithae aka haek hlang pakhat ka hmuh uh. Tedae mamih taengah a bang pawt dongah anih te ka paa sak uh,” a ti nah.
50 "Do not forbid him," said Jesus, "for he who is not against you is on your side."
Tedae anih te Jesuh loh, “Paa sak uh boeh, nangmih kah a kingkalh la aka om pawt te tah nangmih ham ni a om,” a ti nah.
51 Now when the time drew near for Him to be received up again into Heaven, He proceeded with fixed purpose towards Jerusalem, and sent messengers before Him.
A lueinah khohnin te a paan tom coeng dongah Jesuh tah Jerusalem la caeh ham a maelhmai a hooi.
52 They went and entered a village of the Samaritans to make ready for Him.
Te dongah puencawn rhoek te a hmai ah a tueih. Te vaengah cet uh tih Jesuh ham aka rhuengphong la Samaria kho khuila kun uh.
53 But the people there would not receive Him, because He was evidently going to Jerusalem.
Tedae Jerusalem la cet tih a maelhmai tueng ham a om dongah anih te doe uh pawh.
54 When the disciples James and John saw this, they said, "Master, do you wish us to order fire to come down from Heaven and consume them?"
A hnukbang James neh Johan loh a hmuh rhoi vaengah, “Boeipa, vaan lamkah hmai suntlak sak ham neh amih hlawp sak ham khue na ngaih a?” a ti nah rhoi.
55 But He turned and rebuked them.
A mael thil tih amih rhoi te a ho.
56 And they went to another village.
Te dongah kho tloe la vik cet uh.
57 And, as they proceeded on their way, a man came to Him and said, "I will follow you wherever you go."
Long ah a caeh uh vaengah hlang pakhat loh, “Mela na caeh akhaw nang kam vai ni,” a ti nah.
58 "The foxes have holes," said Jesus, "and the birds of the air have nests; but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head."
Te vaengah Jesuh loh anih te, “Metang loh a khui, vaan kah vaa long khaw bu a khuehuh. Tedae hlang capa tah lu a tloeng nah khaw khueh pawh,” a ti nah.
59 "Follow me," He said to another. "Master," the man replied, "allow me first to go and bury my father."
Te phoeiah a tloe taengah, “Kai m'vai lah,” a ti nah. Tedae, te long te, “Boeipa, a pa up ham lamhma la kai n'caeh sak mai,” a ti nah.
60 "Leave the dead," Jesus rejoined, "to bury their own dead; but you must go and announce far and wide the coming of the Kingdom of God."
Tedae anih te, “Aka duek rhoek up ham aka duek rhoek te hlah pah. Tedae nang tah cet lamtah Pathen kah ram te doek ngawn,” a ti nah.
61 "Master," said yet another, "I will follow you; but allow me first to go and say good-bye to my friends at home."
Te phoeiah pakhat long khaw, “Nang kam vai van ni Boeipa, tedae kai tah ka im kah rhoek te lamhma la m'phih sak dae,” a ti nah.
62 Jesus answered him, "No one who has put his hand to the plough, and then looks behind him, is fit for the Kingdom of God.
Tedae anih te Jesuh loh, “Laithol cung te kut a tloeng thil tih a hnuk la aka dan pawt ni Pathen kah ram ham aka ting la a om,” a ti nah.
