< Mark 8 >
1 About that time there was again an immense crowd, and they found themselves with nothing to eat. So He called His disciples to Him.
Te khohnin ah hlangping te hut koep om tih caak koi ba khaw khueh uh pawh.
2 "My heart yearns over the people," He said; "for this is now the third day they have remained with me, and they have nothing to eat.
Hnukbang rhoek te a khue tih, “Kai taengah hnin thum rhaeh uh coeng tih caak bakhaw a khueh uh voel pawt dongah he hlangping ham ka thinphat.
3 If I were to send them home hungry, they would faint on the way, some of them having come a great distance."
Te dongah a im ah buhmueh rhathih la amih ka tueih koinih longpueng ah tawnba uh ni. Amih khuikah hlangvang tah khohla lamkah ha pawk uh,” a ti nah.
4 "Where can we possibly get bread here in this remote place to satisfy such a crowd?" answered His disciples.
A hnukbang rhoek long khaw, “He rhoek he kohong ah me lamkah buh nim hlang loh a cah thai eh he?” a ti uh.
5 "How many loaves have you?" He asked. "Seven," they said.
Te dongah amih te, “Vaidam meyet na khueh uh?,” a ti nah hatah, “Parhih,” a ti uh.
6 So He passed the word to the people to sit down on the ground. Then taking the seven loaves He blessed them, and broke them into portions and proceeded to give them to His disciples for them to distribute, and they distributed them to the people.
Te dongah hlangping te diklai ah ngol ham a uen. Te phoeiah vaidam parhih te a loh tih a uem tih a aeh. Te daengah hlangping taengah tael hamla a hnukbang rhoek te a paek tih a tael uh.
7 They had also a few small fish. He blessed them, and He told His disciples to distribute these also.
Te phoeiah ngadik a yool a khueh uh te khaw a uem tih amih te, “He khaw tael uh,” a ti nah.
8 So the people ate an abundant meal; and what remained over they picked up and carried away--seven hampers of broken pieces.
A caak uh tih a hah uh phoeiah a nueipil aka coih te voh rhih la a phueih uh.
9 The number fed were about 4,000. Then He sent them away,
Te vaengah thawngli tluk om uh.
10 and at once going on board with His disciples He came into the district of Dalmanutha.
Amih a hlah phoeiah tah lawng khuila tlek kun tih a hnukbang rhoek neh Dalmanutha paengpang la pawk.
11 The Pharisees followed Him and began to dispute with Him, asking Him for a sign in the sky, to make trial of Him.
Te vaengah Pharisee rhoek te cet uh tih Jesuh te koe a oelh uh. Vaan lamkah miknoek te anih taengah a toem uh tih a noemcai uh.
12 Heaving a deep and troubled sigh, He said, "Why do the men of to-day ask for a sign? In solemn truth I tell you that no sign will be given to the men of to-day."
Tedae a lungbuei ah huei tih, “Balae hekah cadil loh miknoek a toem. Nangmih taengah rhep ka thui, Hekah cadil he miknoek tueng ham moenih,” a ti.
13 So He left them, went on board again, and came away to the other side.
Te dongah amih te a toeng phoeiah koep kun tih rhalvangan la kat.
14 Now they had forgotten to take bread, nor had they more than a single loaf with them in the boat;
Te vaengah buh khuen ham a hmaai uh dongah lawng khuikah amih taengah vaidam pakhat bueng pawt atah atloe khueh uh pawh.
15 and when He admonished them, "See to it, be on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod,"
Te vaengah amih te ol a paek tih, “Ngaithuen uh, Pharisee rhoek kah tolrhu neh Herod kah tolrhu te hmat uh,” a ti nah.
16 they explained His words to one another by saying, "We have no bread!"
Te vaengah vaidam a khueh uh pawt te amamih khuiah dawtlet uh thae.
17 He perceived what they were saying, and He said to them, "What is this discussion of yours about having no bread? Do you not yet see and understand? Are your minds so dull of comprehension?
Tedae a ming dongah amih te, “Balae tih vaidam na khueh uh pawt te na thuiuh. Na yakming uh pawt tih, na hmuhming uh thlan a? Na thinko te mangkhak la vawk khueh uh ne.
18 You have eyes! can you not see? You have ears! can you not hear? and have you no memory?
Mik aka khueh rhoek loh na hmuh uh voel pawt tih hna aka khueh rhoek loh na yaak uh pawt dongah na poek uh moenih.
19 When I broke up the five loaves for the 5,000 men, how many baskets did you carry away full of broken portions?" "Twelve," they said.
Thawngnga ham vaidam panga ka aeh vaengah a nueipil na phueih uh te voh meyet a bae?” a ti nah hatah Jesuh taengah, “Hlainit,” a ti na uh.
20 "And when the seven for the 4,000, how many hampers full of portions did you take away?" "Seven," they answered.
“Thawngli ham parhih vaengah a nueipil na phueih uh te voh meyet a bae?” a ti nah hatah Jesuh taengah, “Parhih,” a ti na uh.
21 "Do you not yet understand?" He said.
Te phoeiah amih te, “Na hmuhming uh hlan a?,” a ti nah.
22 And they came to Bethsaida. And a blind man was brought to Jesus and they entreated Him to touch him.
Bethsaida la a caeh uh vaengah mikdael te Jesuh taengla a khuen uh tih anih te taek sak ham a bih uh.
23 So He took the blind man by the arm and brought him out of the village, and spitting into his eyes He put His hands on him and asked him, "Can you see anything?"
Te dongah mikdael kah kut te a tuuk tih kho voella a khuen tih a mik ah a timthoeih. A kut te a tloeng thil phoeiah, “Khat khat khaw na hmuh maia?” tila a dawt.
24 He looked up and said, "I can see the people: I see them like trees--only walking."
Te dongah oeloe tih, “Hlang rhoek te ka sawt dae thingkung aka cet bangla ka hmuh,” a ti nah.
25 Then for the second time He put His hands on the man's eyes, and the man, looking steadily, recovered his sight and saw everything distinctly.
Tedae a mik te a kut koep a tloeng pah thil daengah a cil pah tih a hoeih pah tih phaeng boeih a hmuh.
26 So He sent him home, and added, "Do not even go into the village."
Tedae anih a im la a tueih vaengah tah, “Vangca la kun boeh,” a ti nah.
27 From that place Jesus and His disciples went to the villages belonging to Caesarea Philippi. On the way He began to ask His disciples, "Who do people say that I am?"
Jesuh neh a hnukbang rhoek tah Kaisarea Philip kah kho la a caeh uh vaengah longpueng ah a hnukbang rhoek te a dawt tih, “Kai he hlang loh ulae a ti uh,” a ti nah.
28 "John the Baptist," they replied, "but others say Elijah, and others, that it is one of the Prophets."
Te dongah amah te, “Pakhat loh tuinuem Johan, pakhat loh Elijah, tedae pakhat loh tonghma rhoek khuikah pakhat khat a ti uh,” a ti na uh.
29 Then He asked them pointedly, "But you yourselves, who do you say that I am?" "You are the Christ," answered Peter.
Jesuh loh amih te, “Nangmih ta kai he ulae na ti uh?” tila a dawt. Peter loh a doo tih, “Nang tah Khrih ni,” a ti nah.
30 And He strictly forbad them to tell this about Him to any one.
Te vaengah amah kawng te thui pawt ham amih te a uen.
31 And now for the first time He told them, "The Son of Man must endure much suffering, and be rejected by the Elders and the High Priests and the Scribes, and be put to death, and after two days rise to life."
Te phoeiah amih taengah hlang capa te muep a patang ham neh patong rhoek loh a hnawt ham khaw, khosoihham rhoek neh cadaek rhoek loh a ngawn phoeikah hnin thum ah a thoh ham khaw a kuek te koe a thuituen.
32 This He told them plainly; whereupon Peter took Him and began to remonstrate with Him.
Te vaengah ol te sayalh la a thui dongah Peter loh Jesuh te a khue tih koe a toel.
33 But turning round and seeing His disciples, He rebuked Peter. "Get behind me, Adversary," He said, "for your thoughts are not God's thoughts, but men's."
Tedae Jesuh loh mael tih a hnukbang rhoek te a sawt doeah Peter te a tluung tih, “Satan, Pathen te na poek pawt tih hlang te na poek dongah ka hnuk la nong,” a ti nah.
34 Then calling to Him the crowd and also His disciples, He said to them, "If any one is desirous of following me, let him ignore self and take up his cross, and so be my follower.
Te phoeiah a hnukbang rhoek neh hlangping te a khue tih, “Khat khat loh kai hnukah vai ham a ngaih atah amah a huek uh phoeiah a thinglam te kawt saeh lamtah kai m'vai saeh.
35 For whoever is bent on securing his life will lose it, but he who loses his life for my sake, and for the sake of the Good News, will secure it.
Amah khaw a hinglu te khang ham aka ngaih tah a hlong ni. Tedae amah khaw kai neh olthangthen ham a hinglu aka hlong tah daem ni.
36 Why, what does it benefit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?
Hlang pakhat te Diklai pum a dang dae a hinglu te a hlong atah balae a hoeikhang?
37 For what could a man give to buy back his life?
Hlang loh a hinglu ham balae tlansum la a phai eh?
38 Every one, however, who has been ashamed of me and of my teachings in this faithless and sinful age, of him the Son of Man also will be ashamed when He comes in His Father's glory with the holy angels."
He suentae lakliah kamah neh ka ol aka yah puei te tah samphaih neh hlangtholh la om coeng. Hlang capa loh a napa kah thangpomnah dongah hlangcim rhoek kah puencawn rhoek neh ha pawk vaengah anih te a yah puei van ni,” a ti nah.
